How about the data on the drug-dealer’s phone? Or history of where he’d BEEN...?
Guess: His most frequent contact were people who have long histories of dealing drugs. And his physical hang-outs are places known as locales for drug-trafficking.
The little prick was a druggie, and drug-dealer.
And the cops KNOW it.
WHO was repeatedly trying to get into his phone...?
It certainly wasn't the father or his girlfriend since they never bothered to check on him during their night out or when they got home, nor was it the girlfriend's son whom he was supposed to be getting the snacks for and didn't find it out of the ordinary he never came home that night so didn't call the adults, it wasn't the mother since she'd sent him to his dad's to get him out of town since he'd been getting into trouble and suspended from school and it most certainly never was the composite girlfriend DeeDee.
I've wondered why he was acting suspicious and wandering around the apartment complex instead of going straight home. Perhaps he was looking for drugs he'd stashed along the way or maybe his dealer had hidden some in the bushes or he was waiting around for the dealer so the little kid back at the house wouldn't know. I've also wondered if the crime in the neighborhood has decreased.
