Rachel looked disappointingly at the board. She knew the case was thin and that's why the police never rearrested him without the car, but it looked even more meager up on the board. She used string to tie each evidence to its back-up documentation. The arrest record for the pedophilia, the Mario's Pizza menu and a google map print out of the bushes, the two domestic violence cases, and the statement she herself took from William Hirt. She felt better knowing she could back up all her accusations with evidence.

Then she had to take what she learned from Alyssa Hollander into consideration. She attached a picture of Alyssa Hollander to pedophile. It was likely a consensual relationship just like with Kristy Santiago. This still made him a monster, and was illegal and disgusting, but it did poke holes in him being into 10-year-old children. Rachel had to admit even at 16 years old Alyssa nor Kristy looked anything like a 10-year-old and they were physically worlds apart from Julia Brown in 2000.

The Mario's Pizza delivery range showed he had access and Alyssa confirmed he was in those bushes which makes his opportunity even more clear. Nothing Alyssa or Kristy said made him any less of a violent sadistic person in Rachel's mind. While Alyssa made excuses for it, she never said the violence didn't exist. Alyssa, being his alibi the night of the kidnapping, was something Rachel would have to disprove. Lastly, there was the solid evidence Alyssa had no response for: the eyewitness account from William Hirt.

William Hirt didn't know Jacob Drake, so he had no reason to lie about what he saw that night. Rachel had tried to poke holes in his recollection, but he was confident in it even twenty years later. She was impressed he even had it down to which can he was moving at the time the car passed. William Hirt was a credible witness, with a machine-like routine easily believable over Alyssa or Jacob Drake.

Rachel polished her third glass of wine and convinced herself she could overcome the headache Alyssa Hollander would be in court. An ex who was still obsessed with Drake would say anything to protect his innocence. Rachel opened Instagram on her phone to find evidence Drake and Alyssa were still talking and on good terms. She needed something to show Alyssa wasn't as unbiased as she portrayed.

Rachel found Alyssa Hollander's public Instagram and scrolled through the pictures. People often lie about things that could easily be refuted by a quick look at social media nowadays. She had looked at about a dozen gorgeous photos but no sign of Drake. Mostly just selfies and some photos with friends; a pretty basic and generic Instagram, Rachel thought. Then Rachel stopped scrolling, transfixed by an older photo where the resolution was grainy.

The photo was of a woman Rachel guessed was around 30, who looked slightly like Alyssa in the eyes and nose, hugging a teenage girl somewhere around 14 -16 years old. The caption read: Can't wait to see my own kid again.
