Chapter 59 Summary

Decker, Bogart, Lancaster, and Jamison make inquiries at the Mercy, Utah police station. Everyone there denies remembering the Wyatt assault. The team decides to instead question Clyde Evers, the father of the policeman suspected of the crime.

Clyde is living in a rundown house on the edge of town. He is no longer a prosperous, leading citizen. At first, he refuses to cooperate until Bogart threatens to lock him up. Decker confronts Clyde with the facts they already know, and Clyde fills in the gaps.

Giles was the only policeman involved in the assault. The rest were football players, their coach, and the assistant principal—the same types of people Wyatt targeted in the Mansfield shooting.

After the attack, Wyatt dragged herself to a hospital and got tested for rape. She had DNA evidence implicating all her assailants. Her parents used this evidence to blackmail Clyde until they bled him dry. 

Clyde wants to know what’s become of his son. Decker believes Wyatt has already murdered him. Decker asks Clyde if he’s received any strange communication in the mail since Giles’ disappearance. Clyde shows them a printout from a website called “Justice Denied.”

It lists victims of crimes committed by police officers. Wyatt and Leopold’s names are on the list.
