We pulled into the driveway, stepped onto the porch, and Simon knocked on the door.

“Can I help you?” An older woman asked as she slightly opened her door.

“Lilian Donohue?” Simon asked.

“No. I’m her homecare nurse. Who are you?”

“I’m Detective Simon Kind with the LAPD.” He flashed his badge. “We need to ask Lilian some questions. May we come in?”

She stared at him for a moment, and then she looked at us.

“Hold on a second.” She shut the door, and we waited. “You can come in.”

We stepped inside the house, and she led us to the living room, where a hospital bed and equipment were set up, and a frail older woman lay.

“Lilian Donohue?” Simon asked.

“Yes, Detective Kind. I’m her.”

“I have a few questions—”

“I already know your questions. Clara, can you please leave us to talk in private?”

“Sure, Lilian. If you need anything, I’ll be in the next room.”

“Well, go ahead, detective. I don’t have all day.”

“We need you to tell us what happened the night of July 15, 1989, at Cedars Hospital involving Dr. William Chase.”

“I always knew one day this would come back to haunt me. The dead don’t stay buried, and I warned Dr. Chase, but he wouldn’t listen. I didn’t want to do it because I really liked Dr. Kind, but I was desperate, and Dr. Chase knew it.”

“Do what, Lilian?” Simon asked.

“He made me take the child to his wife.”

“What child?” Shaun asked.

“Dr. Kind’s child.”

“I was in the NICU that night. The other nurse that was with me was on her break. Dr. Chase saved that child’s life. He told me he would pay me one hundred thousand dollars to keep quiet about it. You must understand that my husband had left me, and I was drowning in debt. I was about to lose our home, and I had a son I was raising as a single parent. Dr. Chase knew that. He knew how badly I was struggling. He told me all I had to do was be a witness for the death certificate and then take the child to his wife. I asked him how he planned on getting away with it if Dr. Kind and his wife requested to see the baby. He told me not to worry about it, and if I did what he asked, he’d give me the money the following morning.”

“How did you get the baby out of the hospital without anyone knowing?” Jackson asked.

“Earlier that day, I had taken one of the supply boxes because I needed to start packing. Everyone knew I was planning on moving, so no one questioned it when I walked out of the hospital with a large box in my hand. When I got to the car, I laid a blanket down on the front seat and set the child on it, so I could make sure he was okay. The motel was less than a ten-minute drive from the hospital. I handed the child over to Mrs. Chase and left. As promised, Dr.
