Chapter Three

The Angel Killer was the biggest thing to happen to the region in the past decade. He spent most of the last half of the decade scaring women into barricading themselves in their home. However, it wasn’t necessarily them that he was after. The killer is known for having murdered at least 23 prostitutes along several red light districts in at least five major populated cities.

The reason he was called “The Angel Killer” was because of the care that he took with the bodies. After sexually assaulting and strangling the women, he would bath them, cloth them in white dresses, cross their arms, and place them in front of churches. Then he would gently lay them on the ground, and draw angel wings and a halo around them in white chalk.

After years of scouring and exhausting hundreds of leads, investigators settled on Stephen Roche, a quiet, churchgoing family man. He was meek and small with a receding hairline and gold wire-rimmed glasses. A career plumber, Roche had spent his entire life in the same 20 miles from the house that he grew up in. When his parents passed away, he even moved back into his old home – then brought in his wife and had their kids there. The community was shocked to see such a “regular” man get arrested for such heinous crimes – 23 women. The news channels were all over him. His face was plastered all over the TV screens all across the nation. It would be difficult to find an unbiased jury.

The murders had escalated at such an alarming rate right before Roche was arrested that they were finding nearly one body a week. However, after arresting Roche for a DWI, police searched his vehicle and found the tools used in strangulation, care, and preparation for the bodies. Not to mention, the murder stopped while he was placed under arrest for the murder of 23 women.

“All of that evidence they got was circumstantial. There wasn’t a distinct link between Roche and the murdered women. None of the prostitutes in any of the red light districts recognized him or his car—" Rafe put the last piece of bagel into his mouth.

“Well, they aren’t the best witnesses to take the stand either…” Cheryl added. “What was his alibi for the nights that those women were murdered?”

Rafe swallowed the rest of his breakfast before continuing. “He didn’t really have any, except that he was asleep next to his wife. She didn’t see him get up in the middle of the night or anything like that.”

“What were the police thinking arresting him without the proper evidence?” Cheryl leaned back in the chair.

“You think he’s good for it?” asked a voice from the doorway. Rafe and Cheryl looked up to find Noah Rochester leaning up against the doorframe.

Rafe cleared his throat. “Oh, sorry, Sir. I didn’t see you standing there.”

“No, no, no. I shouldn’t have snuck up on you like that.” He smiled at them.

Noah was a good man.
