Sobibor Stories Chapter 1: The Clean Kill

Sobibor, a young lady about thirteen years of age, was walking down the street when she noticed the police boundary to a crime scene, a murder to be exact. This isn't her first murder file, the young girl detective, is on the case. Detective Majdanek comes up to Sobibor, " Let me run down the case, come walk this way. The deceased is in his early twenties identified as Jack Morty. His head was bashed in but the shape of the imprint is unusual and we are stumbled on what the object is. Also almost all the blood has been drained from the body yet the only footprints belong to the victim." Easy case, find the weapon and how the murder got the job done and got out clean.

A closer examination of the skull reveals a large V, something that can make the shape of a V and contain the strength to break a human skull. From the Alley of the street, Sobibor climbs a staircase to get a different view on the case, the roof of one of the adjacent buildings. From above the crime scene, Sobibor is able to get a feel for the case in a different way. Scrapings on the cement bricks above the building reveal that this roof played some role in the murder. A small scrap of metal on the ground stands out, and Sobibor hears footsteps.

A black figure takes two shots at her and misses both then runs down the flights of stairs, with Sobibor on their heels. When Sobibor exits the building only the police are around and Detective Majdanek approaches her. "We have 3 suspects, the deceased wife, Lucy, his boss, Joan, and his co-worker, Vince, we are bringing them in for questioning and so far, we found a few charges on Vince, he is the main suspect, especially since the V would make sense since his name starts with the same letter."Sobibor doesn't seem so sure once they get to the station, his wife is frantic during questioning often complaining that she is even a suspect in her own husband's murder.

She also contains no reasonable alibi for the estimated time of death. His boss is sweating, almost too nervous to speak, and claims he was in the office at the time of the murder with a girl he met at the bar, but since he had no way to contact her for a solid alibi his was also shaky. Vince, calm and cool comes in, he says he has no alibi because he was with the victim up until 10 minutes before his death and on a car ride home which he knew he had no way to prove. Vince seemed too easy to put himself in the spotlight, almost as if he wanted to be the one guilty, but Sobibor could see it, the depression in his eyes, no way would this man be the killer of Jack Morty.

She tells Majdanek, " Let him go, I don't see him as the perpetrator of this murder, he seems to know something though, so let me ask one question to him 1 on 1, if I am wrong this is all on me Detective." Sobibor enters the room with Jack, the two completely alone, no one even listening to the conversation. Sobibor is the first to break the silence, " Vince, you were having a love affair with the victim's wife were you not?"
