"No butter,no gluten." "all right." "She had two tattoos." "One on her arm says "truth," Another near her shoulder--"strength." "" What kind of woman emblazons those two words on her body?" "The kind who are hipper than I was in high school." "Really?" "I took you for being part of the fabulous crowd." "Late bloomer." "She was either strong and honest..." "Or vulnerable,And she got the tattoos to give her inspiration." "Or bored..." "And felt like pissing off her father." "Well,she was found in a vacant warehouse On the south side 14 months ago." "Cause of death was asphyxiation." "M.E. Estimates the body was there three months," "Which puts the time of death about 17 months ago." "Any personal possessions?"

"You know,I have this" " I have this scar on my calf." "When I was a kid,I used to wear high socks in the summer" "Because I was self-conscious." "I wonder if our jane doe was self-conscious about something" "Maybe a mole or a birthmark,and she got a tattoo To cover it up." "Happens all the time." "I have a friend who specializes in that" "Therapeutic tattoo art." "You got an address?" "Any luck with missing persons?" "Nah." "They're still trying,But so far,the name "hope" hasn't run any bells." "What about you?" "Find any jewelry stores That sell nondescript silver bracelets?" "Only 500." "Well,hopefully our doe wasn't as ordinary as our bracelet." "You know,I have a feeling she wasn't." "I mean,anyone committed to the words "truth"" "And "strength" and "hope" probably stood out,In a good way." "Those are three powerful wor." "She certainly liked to motivate herself." "Or needed to motivate herself" "Because she was an addict Or an alcoholic." "Well,it's definitely an odd location." "The coloration isn't perfect either,Especially in the middle of the piece."

"Wow." "If you don't go out with him,I will." "Dust off your blue blazer." "I don't date cops." "It's possible the doe was an addict." "She might have come down here to get a fix,Security guard shows up and..." "That's a good theory,Bu but the toxicology report was tigative." "So you might want to show this guy your badge Sooner rather than later." "He's got a bit of an itchy trigger finger." "Detective russell,chicago p." "D."

"A woman who might be an addict" "Winds up in an area flooded with junkies," "But she's clean as a whistle." "Look at it this way-- If it were simple, we wouldn't need your help." "That's either very inspiring or truly depressing." "It was meant to be inspiring." "Good." "And if you want to keep me inspired," "Find me the names of all the non-employees Who have keys to the warehouse." "Here she is,guys,our doe,When she was alive and beautiful." "Now can we please do something about finding out her name?" "Like now,no more excuses?" "Excuses?" "We're not" "Just a figure of speech,walter,like,uh,"just do it." "" Oh,like,"let's get it on!""

"Uh,could you please check your database" "For someone with the first name "lee"?" "She might have been a victim of a violent crime." "This is the public defender's office, sweetie,not google." "We need a last name." "Yeah,that's the problem." "I need to use the first name to get the last name." "Public defender's office." "Excuse me." "Uh,have you seen this woman?" "Her name was lee,And,uh, she had a tattoo on-- on her right arm." " It said..." " "truth." "" I met her." "Yeah,about two years ago." "Are you a lawyer?" "Probation officer." "Name's jack driscoll."

"But her first name was ashley." "It wasn't lee." "Don't know her last name." "Do you remember anything else?" "Yeah,she had a gun in her purse." "How'd you know she had a gun?" " We had lunch once,And it was a nightmare." " In what way?" "Well,to be honest,I was trying to impress her," "So I told a little fib." "What could I say?" "She was hot." "We got that already." "So what happened?" "She said she needed help, um,introductions To powerful people-- lawyers,cops,journalists," "Uh,people who could get stuff done." "What kind of stuff?" "Legal stuff." "I asked her for details, but she played it close to the vest" "And said the issue was very sensitive." "So what was the lie you told her?" "Well,I told her I had a friend who was a big-shot attorney." "But you were talking out of your ass." "And then the guy's secretary calls while we're at lunch," "Tells ashley he never heard of me."

"She was also trying to get introductions" "To people who could get stuff done." "Legal stuff." "Plus,she had a gun in her bag." "I love this woman." "So the real question is" "Why was ashley looking for a public defender?" "I mean,they represent defendants,not victims." "Maybe she committed a crime." "Or was thinking of committing one." "What do you mean?" "Well,maybe she was tired of being afraid." "Right?" "I mean,she never got over the fact" "That some guy popped a cap in her wing." "Her wing?"

"I work with a group called the forgotten network." "We help identify john and jane does." "That's great,but I'm not interested in donating" "I'm not looking for money." "I'm looking for the name of a judge" "Who has a daughter named hope." "Judge cooperman." "Thank you." "Thank you for taking the time to meet with me,your honor." "I appreciate it." "I understand you had a question about one of hope's friends." "Yeah." "Do you,uh,do you recognize her?" "Sure." "That's ashley kemp." "Is she... yes."

"My son's birthday." "You have kids?" "Yeah." "Knowing he's out there waiting on me" "Is the only thing that gets me through the day." "His mother tells me he's a heck of a baseball player,too."

"So you haven't talked to ashley kemp since the trial?" "Like I told detective russell..." "I don't recall." "right." "You don't recall." "What's the problem,steele?" "You afraid to tell cooperman that you screwed up?" "You worried that convicting an innocent man of murder" "Might hurt your chances at running for the senate?" "Are you suggesting that I killed ashley?" "I'm suggesting that your lack of cooperation" "I agreed to speak with you as a courtesy." "If you're gonna make baseless accusations" "***" "That she had rvaervations about testifying." " So?" " She didn't think chris was the shooter." "You and cooperman talked her into it." "Witnesses always have doubts." "It's natural." "It's human." "So you're right." "Ashley wasn't certain that rowe shot her," "But I was,and I still am." "Steele didn't believe a word I said." "He thought I was just another stressed-out chick" "With anxiety issues." "So I told the bastard I'd get chris out of prison myself." "Take a look for yourself." "The evidence was overwhelming." "A witness saw rowe near the crime scene." "Rowe didn't have a credible alibi." "Ashley saw a tattoo of a date on the shooter's arm." "Rowe has a tattoo of a date on his arm." "He's not the only rowe with a tattoo." "Half of chicago has a date tattooed to their arm." "Trust me." "It matters." "Okay,his name is donny rowe." "He's no angel." "Two priors-- drug possession and assault." "Remember that list you asked about?" "People with keys to the warehouse?" "Yeah." "Guess who worked for the janitorial services firm" "In charge of kleiner coats?" "Son of a bitch." "He lets his cousin take the fall."
