Chapter 18

Cat sat in the station manager’s office, explaining her side of the confrontation with Rick from the night before. It appeared to Cat that nothing she said was convincing Mr. Davidson of her innocence and Rick’s guilt. His eyes never stayed on hers for long as she tried to explain. He was a weasel.

“It isn’t that I believe either story over the other, Cat. I just think it would be in the best interest of the station if you and Rick didn’t work so closely together from now on. We will find a suitable replacement for the producer and in the mean time Pat can handle the calls. When he isn’t here, you will just have to run a regular music shift with news and weather without the live call-ins.”

Cat bit her tongue and pressed her lips together firmly to keep from spewing all over him. “I agree with your decision about removing Rick. Pat only works two days a week, though. I have sold advertising spots for that live show, Mr. Davidson. The station will lose money, and I will lose my commission from those sales. Doesn’t that count for anything?” She could feel the heat beneath the collar of her sweater.

Davidson held his fat hands up in defense, “For now, that’s the best I can do. If there isn’t anything else, I have other things to attend to.”

Cat was fuming at being dismissed in such a manner. She quickly left his office and made her way to the break room where she searched for something to punch. Her tears were near the surface – she was struggling to keep them contained, making her throat burn. She stood clinching her jaw and fists, staring out the grimy window in the break room when she heard a commotion up front.

When the warrant team arrived, Bronson and Sullivan converged on the radio station with zest. They entered the building practically at a run producing a copy of the warrant to the receptionist who took off down the hall towards the station manager’s office. Without waiting for her to return, they strode to Rick’s office and knocked loudly on the door. The receptionist and station manager met them outside Rick’s office and produced a key that allowed them access.

Once inside, they began a systematic search and seizure, tagging and bagging evidence as they went along. They were informed by Mr. Davidson that Rick had called in sick. Immediately, that information was relayed to the warrant team at Rick’s residence.

After nearly three hours at the radio station, Sullivan, Bronson and their teams, left. In their wake was a mess that would take several people, several hours to clean up. Before departing the radio station for a rendezvous with the other warrant team, Sullivan motioned for Cat to come out of the sound booth. They stood in the hall and briefly discussed getting together after she got off work.

“I don’t know Detective; it doesn’t sound like a good idea to me.” She reminded him of what he had said the night before and what he had implied in the parking lot.
