case. Lennon listened blankly.

He had gone to the pub straight after work the evening before and met a young girl, around the age of 24. She offered to buy him a drink to this he accepted and soon they were laughing the night away. Suddenly he noticed that it was 1am. To this he invited the girl back to his suburban apartment as the busses had stopped running. As they were walking they noticed a nightclub, bright lights, banging music. He was 36, he son was with his mother at her home in Brighton and after the day he had, he wanted a good time and that with the help of alcohol forced him into that nightclub with a 24 year old woman with long blonde hair and hazel eyes going by the name of Angel.

This was why he was so tired that morning but even after all that he knew that this information was really important to the case so decided to pay attention for the first time today.
Max was reluctant to tell him in the beginning, but soon he opened up. Lennon could not believe what he was hearing. His eyes widened as the story went on. Mr Thatcher wasn’t as good a man as everyone thought...

Explanation I

1965-14-09 Mr Thatcher’s Farm, Essex

The body was found two days later, cold and still. The village was so shocked and horrified that someone would do this to such a caring and friendly man, and so brutally. Many people were questioned but even though the village was small, everyone seemed to have an alibi. It was likely to be someone in the village because the place was at least 40 miles away from anywhere else. The police looked into Farmer Thatcher’s money issues and there was nothing. Friends and family were looked at too but there was no problems. So why?

The police had to eventually drop the case because nothing could be found out. Someone here was lying but there was no proof anywhere to be found. So someone was covering someone else. But who?

The Investigation: Explanation

2011-08-04. Cold Case Team. London.

The police were sent out to arrest as Max agreed to be a witness. He had told Lennon that his father and his Uncle had gone to the farm late at night because his father was in a relationship with Madeline Thatcher. His Uncle was to pick her up and drive them both to the airport. They were going to fly to Gretna Green to get married. But whilst they were waiting outside something went wrong and Mr Thatcher came out of the house instead and began shouting at them and then dragged them indoors only to witness Mr Thatcher beginning to beat his wife in anger. So then they plotted to kill the sheep to get vengeance but Mr Morrison was still so angry so met Mrs Thatcher that night and they both killed him. Max’s Auntie told him all this days before the show and then with this information a formal arrest could be made. They had a strong case and this could finally be closed. Or so they thought. The police arrived at the address for Mr Morrison. On entering the police knew something wasn’t right. No pictures, no books, DVD’s not much furniture. Silent. But then they walked upstairs and the giggling and laughing began. They entered the first room and what they saw they couldn’t believe. Mr Morrison was holding young girls from 17+ hostage. But he wasn’t there. This was going to be more difficult that they thought. Each girl was going to have to be questioned and so was Max Morrison. Did he know about it? This was going to be a long struggle but the police force were not going to let this go now.
