It was a Friday
night when Alex Sonos, much to her dismay, was stuck closing the hair solon
place she worked at Great Northern Mall in North Olmsted, OH. Since her client had come just as the store
was about to close, she knew she would have to be there a long time after it
closed. Alex’s parents both emigrated
from Greece to America so her
Greek nationalism was extremely strong due to the way she was brought up. By the time she had finished with her client,
all the stores in the mall were closed.
She called her mom and informed her to not pick her up when scheduled
but she’d call her when she was finished.
Larry Rozakis got
extremely bored at around 9:30. He
decided to get in his car and drive around, he did this often when he had
nothing else to do. At 10:00 he was by
Great Northern Mall and stopped to see if Alex was still there, since he knew
that she was closing that day. He tried
the entrance to the mall, but it was locked.
He then went around to the exit doors located near Regis hair solon,
where Alex worked. The door was opened
leading to a hallway, he opened the other set of doors, which only led to
another short hallway and then tried the doors leading to the mall. Those doors were locked. In these two hallways was where Alex and her
co-workers went on their breaks to smoke.
Larry knew this because he had been with Alex when she had, although he
didn’t smoke. He walked through the
double doors connecting the two short hallways and waited in the one leading to
the outside to see if Alex was coming.
By the time Alex
finished with her client it was 9:30.
She let her client out of the steel barricade indicating the store was
closed. She then swept up the hair and
did other necessary precautions to close the store. By the time she walked out it was 10:00 and
nobody was in the mall since it had been closed for an hour now. She pushed open the exit door leading to the
outside. When she came into the hallway,
she realized her client was waiting for her.
She jumped back startled when she saw him. The man hopped to his feet and grabbed Alex
holding a hand over her mouth and a knife to her neck. He said, “Do you think I was late on purpose?
No I wanted you here alone with me.” Alex’s
eyes widened in terror, the man continued, “We can do this the easy way or the
hard way, but first, if I let my hand go are you going to scream?”
Alex shook her head
no, and the man said, “Good, because if you do, I will kill you, nobody will
hear you, and I don’t want to have to fuck a dead carcass.” He lowered his hand
from her mouth and said, “Would you like to know the easy way and the hard
way?”
Alex said with
obvious nervousness in her voice, “Sure”
Larry had heard
voices from the other hallway and he leaned his ear against it to try to make
it out. The guy said, “Okay, the easy
way is, you take off your clothes, I take off mine, I fuck you, you go
home. The hard way is that you refuse to
take off your clothes, I attack you, and force them off you and then rape you. Take your pick.”
Alex’s eyes widened
and she leaned against the door in shock and fear. She contemplated trying to run, but the guy
was so close to her and she didn’t know if she could outrun him. She said, “Why are you doing this?”
“Look in a mirror
and maybe you can figure it out.”
“What? You think I’m hot?”
“See I knew you
could figure it out.”
Larry could tell Alex
was in trouble but he didn’t want to go in because Alex wasn’t in any danger
yet. Alex said, “Why couldn’t you just
hit on me, and do it the old fashioned way?”
“You’re used to the
old-fashioned way plus it takes too much hard work to go out with you and get
you in bed, I got to make sure I don’t say the wrong shit, it’s not worth it,
this way, I fuck you, no questions asked, good bye.”
Alex leaned more
into the door and it creaked open a little bit, she had decided to make a run
for it but she wanted to ease the door open and stall as much as possible. Unfortunately, the guy noticed this and
grabbed her hand and said, “What’s it going to be, the easy way or hard way?”
Alex yelled, “Neither”
and pulled her arm away and ran into the door, only the man had his arm around
her neck and pulled her back.
“Correction you
chose the hard way.” The man said as he threw her to the ground and hopped on
top of her.
Larry pushed through
the door when he heard the thud and said, “Leave that girl alone!”
“Who the hell are
you?” said the guy.
“That doesn’t matter;
just that I’m here to stop you from raping her is all you need to know.”
The kid got up and
walked toward Larry. His knife was still
in his pocket; he didn’t want to use it because he thought he could take Larry
by himself. Alex sat up and faced Larry,
she wanted to run, but somehow she was drawn to watch the fight. She didn’t think Larry stood a chance but the
thought of him helping her intrigued her.
The kid shoved Larry into the door and punched him in the stomach. He then threw him into the wall and punched
at his kidneys. He then reached around Larry’s
waist, lifted him up and slammed the back of his head and neck on the
ground. Alex was beginning to believe
that Larry really didn’t stand a chance.
Larry got to his feet as if nothing happened. This surprised the man a little but he ran at
Larry. Larry moved out of the way, he
went to Alex and gave her a black seriated pocketknife and told her to use it
in case Larry lost. The guy walked
toward Larry, as Larry circled around to draw the man away from Alex. The fact that it was an enclosed hallway made
it hard for Larry to distract the guy from Alex. He grabbed Larry and threw him into the wall
and then across the other wall and drilled him repeatedly in the kidneys. He then turned him around and punched at his
face. Larry staggered with every punch
as blood matriculated on his face. One
final blow knocked Larry to the ground. Larry
was surprised because very few people know how to punch someone in the side of
the face and not hurt themselves. It’s
something many beginner fighters take for granted, but this kid was no
beginner. Larry rose to his feet and
swung his arm from outside in signaling the kid to come at him. He came forward and thrusted his fist into Larry
stomach. He bent down, wrapped his arms
around Larry’s legs, lifted him up and drove him threw the doors and slammed him
in the other hallway. He got up and
stomped at Larry’s stomach and chest. Larry
rolled out of the way and to his feet.
Blood flowed down his face like water.
The kid yelled, “Stay down” and drove his knee into Larry’s
stomach. He placed Larry’s head between
his legs, wrapped his arms around his waist, lifted him up so that Larry was
sitting up on his shoulders and thrusted him off and on to the ground on the
back of his head and neck. This cut the
back of Larry’s head, but Larry rolled onto his stomach and pushed up to all
fours. The kid stomped on Larry’s back
flattening him again. He stomped away at
his back and once again Larry rolled to his feet. The kid wrapped his hands around Larry’s neck
and squeezed to choke him. He backed him
into a wall and tightened his grip. Larry
slammed his arms into the elbow joints of his arms loosening the man’s grip on
his neck and then shoved him away. The
kid ran up and kneed Larry in the stomach.
Blood soaked Larry’s teeth and showed on his lips now. He took Larry and slammed his head into the
other wall. He pulled back his head and
repeatedly hit it against the wall. Larry
twisted out of the grip after connecting with the wall three times. Alex had her head poked threw the door so she
could see what was going on. The kid
threw back an elbow that nailed Larry in the nose causing blood to drip out of
it. The guy lifted Larry over his
shoulder and slammed his back once again onto the ground hoping for Larry to
stay there. He then jumped and landed
knee first on Larry’s right thigh. He
did the same to his left thigh. Larry
sat up with the pain to his legs, only to feel a kick in the face knocking him
back flat on his back. The kid straddled
Larry and said, “I’m going to rape her whether you like it or not, just give up
and stay down.”
Larry turned over so
now he was on top of him and punched down at the man’s face. He got in six solid punches to the face,
before the man recovered from the shock and pushed him off him. Larry rose to his feet with a crimson
face. At first when Larry had entered, Alex
was skeptical on whether or not; this was a set up for her to hook up with Larry. But the pain Larry endured, she was beginning
to doubt herself. The man ran at Larry, Larry
ducked, wrapped his arms around his legs and catapulted him over his shoulder,
into the wall, bounced off and landed face first on the ground. Larry stomped away at his back before the man
rolled away and slowly got to his feet.
Blood now matriculated on the guy’s face. He wiped his face and came at Larry; he threw
a punch that missed because Larry ducked under it. Larry then jammed his fists into his
kidneys. The kid threw back an elbow
that Larry also anticipated so ducked and watched that go over his head. When Larry was rising up, he hooked his arm
and came up with an uppercut connecting right below the man’s chin sending him
flying back to the ground. Alex was
shocked but her original conspiracy reformulated and thought that this was just
a great acting job. The guy got up and
shoved Larry back, Larry darted forward and drove his shoulder into his solar
plexus and chopped at the back of his knees knocking him to the ground. Larry punched down at his face once
again. The guy pushed him off; Larry got
up and stomped at the man’s chest. The
man rolled to his feet warily, Larry punched him in the nose sending him
staggering. Larry then hooked his arm
under and drilled him in the stomach. He
then put his arm around his head, fell back and slammed this kid’s head into
the ground. Since the kid hit at an angle,
his neck did not absorb much of the force but enough to feel it. Larry warily made his way to his feet, as did
the guy. The guy swung his fist at Larry,
Larry raised his arm and blocked it, and snapped his fist into the kid’s
nose. He grabbed him by the hair and
forced him to the opposite wall and slammed him face first into it. Both men’s face had a significant amount of
blood on them. Larry threw him back and
to the ground. The guy pulled his knife
from his pocket and snapped it out. He
waved it at Larry and said, “Too bad you gave yours to that bitch.”
“Larry gripped at
his waist and pulled out a silver Harley Davidson knife and said, “On the
contrary, I saved one for myself.”
“Why the hell would
you carry two knives with you?”
“Just in case I run
into some trouble with someone else that carries two weapons.”
“How often does it
happen?”
“Very rarely,
actually this is the first time, but hey it came in handy now didn’t it.”
“Fuck you” as he
swung his knife, which Larry blocked with his.
Alex’s mind raced
for whether this was just an elaborate plan for Larry to get her by pretending
to fight for her or if it was true. Based on the fight, it appeared Larry was
really helping her, especially now that they’re fighting with knives. But why the hell would Larry just happen to
be in the hallway as something went on, he was never there before. She then looked down at the knife Larry gave
her. The tip had been snapped off and
the non-seriated part was dull. This she
saw as evidence that this was just a sick plan to get in bed with Alex. She watched the fight meticulously to find
more clues on how this was a plan.
The guy swung his
knife toward Larry’s head, which Larry again blocked with his knife. Larry swung with his only to be blocked by
the other guy’s knife. Then the guy
swung down and cut Larry’s biceps of the arm not holding the knife. The knife cut threw the shirt and formed an
incision on his arm. Despite the pain, Larry
kept the grip on the knife. The guy
swung the knife at Larry’s neck again; Larry ducked under it and jammed his
knife into the left biceps of the guy (the knife was in his right hand). The knife punctured the shirt and his skin; Larry
pulled it out, causing it to bleed profusely.
If this were a joke, they were taken it to an extreme. The guy swung his body around again; Larry
ducked under this one as well and lunged forward with his knife. The man jumped back as Larry narrowly missed
him. He swung his knife once again, but Larry
leaned back and watched it fly over his face.
Larry snapped his knife across but was blocked by the guy. The guy backed Larry up with aggressive
swings that Larry continually blocked with his knife until he hit the
door. The man lunged and Larry
sidestepped him and brought his right arm down (his knife was in his right
hand) and jammed it into the left hamstring of the man. The man collapsed forward through the door
and dropped his knife. Larry assumed the
guy wanted to stop; his left limbs had been stabbed. Larry merely had an incision on the arm that
was shooting out blood. His puncture
wounds were bleeding because Larry had pulled out the knife each time but not
much blood had shed because a puncture wound closes quickly, which is dangerous
for infection. Larry turned but he heard
the door creak as it was starting to close.
He turned around and felt a knife stab his right biceps, he dropped his
knife but instinctively swung his left arm around and gripped it again. The guy pulled the knife out of his biceps
and swung for the neck. Larry brought
his left arm up and out and blocked his knife with his. He bent his wrist back and swung the knife
across slitting the man’s throat. The
guy dropped his knife and fell to the ground dead. Larry took two steps back and sat on the
ground holding his right biceps.
Alex shoved open the
door and ran to the man and immediately put two fingers on his neck checking
for a pulse. None came; she then rolled
him to his back and tilted his head by his mouth and looked at his chest to
check breathing. His chest did not rise,
nor did air come out from his mouth. She
rechecked the pulse and still nothing.
She turned to Larry and said astonished, “You killed him.”
“I know, I had to,
did you see the whole fight?”
“Yea I watched the
whole thing”
“So you can attest
that I killed him in self defense.”
“ummmm yea”
“Alex this is
important, or else it’s murder and I go to jail.”
“Larry as far as I
could tell, it was self defense, but before we go calling the police, I want to
know what brought you here.”
“Boredom, the front
doors were locked when I got here, so I came in this way thinking it would be
open. I wanted to see if you were still
working because I couldn’t get a hold of anybody else. I saw the doors were open so I went through
but when I found the door leading to the mall was locked I was about to
leave. I sat down and then I heard
voices. I got up and put my ear to the
door and I was trying to determine whether it was just two people hooking up,
or if someone was in trouble, then I heard him talk about raping you, so I risked
it and came in, and you saw the rest.’
“That doesn’t sound
too convincing, why would you come here an hour after we closed.”
“Well you have to do
some shit after the thing goes down, I don’t know how long it takes, I was
bored, bored people will take a chance at anything.”
“Larry look, I will
only help you if you come clean. I won’t
be mad, just tell me the fucking truth”
Alex was on the
verge of crying because she had no idea what to believe and felt
powerless. Larry said, “I am telling the
truth, but what difference does it make how I got here, I had to kill someone.”
“That’s the thing,
did you two plan this so I would thank you by hooking up with you.”
Larry’s eyes widened
in shock, “If that’s what the fuck you think, then I kind of wish I didn’t
fucking help you. My God, I fucking risk
my life for you, and you pull this shit, check my fucking knife, check his
fucking knife, both are real and you saw us swinging it at each other. What the fuck do you think is on my face?
Ketchup, no this is blood, I was really stabbed protecting you, I really killed
that guy, this is fucking real, and to suggest that I went through all this
just to trick you shows how sadistic and sick you really think I am. Damn Alex, I don’t know what else to say, I’m
just shocked.”
Alex realized how
stupid her accusation was, “Oh my God Larry, I’m so sorry, I feel really bad
now.”
“Yea well I hope you
don’t still believe this was some sadistic plan to get into your panties.”
“No I don’t, I
just….well…”
“You just can’t
believe that someone would do something nice for you because you’re used to
going for assholes.”
Alex resented this
comment but she felt too bad to say anything plus she realized there was some
truth to it, she just didn’t want to hear it.
She lowered her head and said, “Yea, I know, you’re right.”
Larry took off his
shirt and wrapped it around his left biceps, which he had originally used his
right hand to hold. Although the left
arm was bleeding more, the right arm hurt more.
Alex then realized just how bad of shape Larry was in and asked, “How
are you going to drive home?”
“I can drive with my
knees and when it comes to making turns, I’ll just tough it out.”
“Well you shouldn’t
do that alone.”
“Well isn’t your mom
coming to pick you up.’
“No, I was going to
have a cigarette out here and then call her.”
“Do you need a
ride?”
“On second thought,
can you drive over to my friend’s house, I’ll just tell my mom Marcy is picking
me up and I’m sleeping there.”
“Why?”
“Because someone
needs to help with all that blood, and despite what you say, you need help to
drive.”
“Why your friend’s
house?”
“Her family’s out of
town and she told me where the key was and I could use it if I needed it just
as long as I don’t trash it like have a big party”
“Looks like we both
have unbelievable yet true stories that just happened to have worked well given
a current situation.”
Alex knew that Larry
was referring to her earlier comment on when Larry explained why he was
there. She thought about it, and her
situation didn’t sound too believable either, a vacant house that she can’t
have a party in. She just smiled and
said, “So do you want to go or not?”
“Yea sure, You’re
right I do need help.”
They had completely
forgotten about calling the cops to explain the story and just left. Alex called her mom and told her that she was
spending the night at Marcy’s. Her mom
bought the story.
Larry was extremely weak and Alex had to help him to
his car. On the way, they stopped to buy
a newspaper from a stand outside the mall.
They used the newspaper to cover the seats of the driver side. Alex helped Larry in as he sat in the seat he
took a big exhale in relief. Alex now
knew that Larry couldn’t have gotten home.
She got in and said, “Imagine if you had to drive alone.”
“Alex I was never
planning on it.”
“What?”
“I was going to
stumble to the car and sleep in it, until I was rested enough to drive, I lied
to you.”
“Oh I see, well
let’s go.”
Larry started the
car and placed his hands on the wheel.
He shifted the car in reverse. Larry
turned the wheel using his left arm and when he had backed out put the car in
drive and headed off. Alex gave the
directions and Larry only had his hands on the wheel to make turns. Alex had her hand close, ready to catch the
wheel if Larry lost his grip. She only
did twice due to the piercing pain of his arms.
Finally they pulled into the driveway and exited. Larry could walk on his own now but it was
still slow. Alex did not help him as
much as she had before but when they got in, she grabbed Larry’s shirt that was
drenched in blood and threw it in the bathtub of cold water. She the nursed his cuts. First, she treated the incision on his left
arm. She wiped it and applied pressure
with toilet paper. She then wet a paper
towel with rubbing alcohol and dabbed at the cut. Larry hissed but then held it in. Alex put a little rubbing alcohol on it and
then put a sterilized pad over it and taped it in place. She then did the same to the puncture in his
right arm. After covering that with the
sterilized pad she wiped the blood off his face and the back of his head. All those cuts had closed but she put rubbing
alcohol on them anyway. She then laid
him in a bed and tucked him in. Larry
undid his pants and took them off with his socks as Alex left the room
Alex went downstairs
to get something to drink. As she did
she contemplated on how to thank Larry.
She didn’t want to merely say thank you, because it seemed too weak when
someone risks his or her life for you.
She contemplated whether or not to do things sexual in nature with
him. She had already decided that Larry
did not plan the whole thing up. Her
main problem was that Larry was younger than she was. She finished her glass and washed it with
soap in the sink. She then grabbed a
paper towel and dried it and placed it back in the cupboard so as to leave
everything the way it was. She climbed
the stairs and looked inside. Larry was
fast asleep due to his exhaustion from the fight. Alex noticed he never called his parents and
then realized that Larry rarely did because, unlike Alex, Larry’s parents were
not overprotective over him. As much as
she fought it, in the back of her mind she kept thinking that Larry’s whole
intention was to have her get on him.
She stripped to her bra and panties and then lied in bed next to Larry. She lied facing Larry to see any facial
reaction he may have with her being in bed with him. If it was disappointments that she wasn’t
kissing him, if he would make a move on her, if he smiled because he was in bed
with her anything. The most obvious
answer was the right one; Larry had no expression because he was asleep. After ten minutes Alex realized that even if Larry
expected it she’d do it anyway and it obviously didn’t bother him enough to
lose sleep over it. Besides if someone
would go to the extreme of killing someone and getting stabbed and slit by a
knife just for one evening with her then maybe they should. The truth was Larry did not expect this, he
just saw her in trouble and helped her out, the only thing he wanted was a
verbal thank you, but instead he got an accusation. Alex’s eyes pierced Larry in a way she never
had before; as her protector, even as a hero.
She leaned forward and kissed him on the mouth. Larry’s eyes opened, thinking he was
dreaming. Alex moved it and kissed her
again, this time Larry opened his mouth and they french kissed. Alex rolled on top of Larry and they made out
profusely. Larry turned Alex on to her
back as Larry now lay on top. Larry made
out and felt her breasts over her bra as well.
After a little bit, he moved his head down and kissed her neck and
followed it further down to her breasts over her bra. Larry rolled to the side so now the two lay
on their sides facing each other. Larry
had one hand on her butt; the other was on her groin area rubbing. Alex had one hand on the back of Larry’s and
the other rubbing his penis over his boxers.
After a while of this, Larry moved his hand up and slipped it inside her
panties and rubbed around the vagina area.
He found it to be wet, so he stuck two fingers inside and felt around a
bit before rubbing the clitoris while his mouth continued to make out with
her. Alex, as soon as Larry went into
her pantyhose, reached inside his boxers and stroked his penis. Alex moaned with pleasure as Larry rubbed her
clitoris. They did this, until Alex
achieved orgasm and let out a loud yell.
Larry smiled, for that sound was music to his ears. He then lowered her underwear and moved his
head down as well. He licked her vagina,
and Alex immediately wrapped her legs around his head. Larry licked fast and hard, even sticking it
in sporadically. Alex enjoyed this and
moaned loudly as her legs tightened around Larry’s neck. Larry was trapped between her beautifully
long legs so he just continued to lick.
He went through the American and Greek alphabet and Alex climaxed once
again. Alex eased her grip with her legs
and Larry stopped. She pushed Larry onto
his back and Larry obediently lay there thinking it was over. It didn’t matter to him if it was over
because he was fully satisfied.
Alex then turned on him and moved her head down. She rubbed his penis to keep it erect. She then placed it in her mouth and moved her
head down forcing the penis deeper into her mouth. She then lifted her head forcing the penis to
go shallow then deep and complete the cycle continually. She took her mouth off of it a little bit and
licked Larry’s scrotum. She went back to
giving him oral sex as Larry moaned with pleasure and grabbed the sheets tightly
trying desperately not to ejaculate. Alex
then lied on top of Larry and French kissed him. Larry reached around and undid her bra and
pulled it off. He then sucked on her
bare breasts. He used his arms to push
them together and licked the crease they made.
Alex lowered her body and pulled Larry’s boxer’s off his body. She then reached into a drawer by the table
and pulled out a condom. She placed the
condom over Larry’s penis. Larry got up
and made out with Alex while they were standing. She then backed her on to the bed and lied on
top of her, inserting his penis into her vagina. Larry kissed Alex and caressed her breasts
while his penis penetrated her vagina.
Soon afterward Larry ejaculated into the condom.
Larry removed his penis from her and kissed her
lightly on the neck. Larry removed the
condom and threw it in a nearby trash can making sure all the semen was inside
it. Alex turned with her back toward Larry,
and Larry put her arm around her and rested it on her sternum. Alex smiled and both of them fell
asleep. Larry wondered whether or not Alex
would regret what happened. The next
day, Larry woke up before Alex and got dressed.
About a half-hour later Alex awoke and got dressed as well. The atmosphere was a little uncomfortable but
not too bad. Larry took Alex home and
then went back to his house.
Larry
turned on the TV and saw the news; he was about to change the channel when he
saw the guy he killed. Larry forgot all
about killing the guy but it was self-defense he would just need Alex to back
him. It just occurred to him that it
would be difficult for Alex to help him because if she does Alex’s parents will
know what almost happened to Alex. Something Alex did not want her parents to
find out since that they could probably figure out Marcy was not with Alex that
night. Larry’s fingerprints were on the
man’s shirt. The police had them on
record since an incident where someone broke into his dad’s office and then
sent a note about it. Everyone in Larry’s
family had to get their fingerprints to see if other finger prints besides that
of the family was on the paper. That is
how they had his prints and were able to contact him quickly. The man did not have any family show up and Larry
sat with the prosecutor and told him the truth.
The prosecutor asked him, “Were there any witnesses”
“Yes,
but I would appreciate it, if you didn’t call her at her house and try to do it
without her parents finding out.”
“Well
how old is this girl?”
“19”
“Then
that can be arranged if you know where she works”
“Regis
Hair Solon in Great Northern Mall”
“Alright
then, we can do this without her parents knowing but I don’t see how we could
without her co-workers knowing unless you get her to come down here.”
“She
doesn’t have a license, I’d have to pick her up.”
“Will
you do that then?”
“Well
give me a day, if she’s not in here by the end of tomorrow go to Regis”
“Well
we don’t know if you’re going to coach her through the questioning.”
“Sir
I’m telling the truth, she can back me up on this, what do you suggest so that
you know I’m not trying to con you guys”
“Is she working now?”
“I don’t know”
“Well we’ll go over there, and if she’s not, you call
her and pick her up at her house with one of us.”
“Police cars will make her parents nervous sir.”
“Will you allow us in your car?”
“Oh yea, okay, that will work”
“Okay, let’s go.”
Larry was nervous about this but he had no choice but
to cooperate. Walking in to Regis’ with
a cop seemed intimidating to Alex but Larry’s life depended on her telling the
truth. Security was tight around Great
Northern; the murder had not been linked to Larry, Alex, or Regis. When the police showed up with Larry at
Regis’ Alex was working. She wasn’t with
a client so after the officer asked for her; she took a break to talk with
them. They went to the officer’s car; Larry
took the back seat despite how uncomfortable he knew it was. They drove to the station and questioned her
with Larry watching in through a window but from Alex’s vantage point it was a
mirror. Larry was extremely nervous, the
officer talked calmly and collectively and said, “Now Alex, what happened last
night.”
“I closed the store late because a customer came in
just before we closed. Since he had an
appointment I was kind of obligated to do it. After he left I closed the store, when I
exited through the exit across from Regis he was there. He held a knife to my throat and said that I
had two options, one was to strip and he has sex with me, or, I refuse, he
forces my clothes off and rapes me.”
“I pleaded with him but he just grabbed me and was
going to rape me, then Larry came and shoved him off me. They got in a fight and when Larry had the
obvious upper hand, he pulled a knife on him.
At the beginning of the fight he ran over to me and gave me a knife in
case he lost. Larry had a second knife
with him and flung it out. The man kept
swinging with his knife, and Larry fought back and they stabbed each other once
and the guy cut his arm as well but it ended after Larry’s hand that had the
knife, I think his right, got stabbed.
So he used his other arm to block the man swinging his knife and then
slit the guy’s throat.”
“From what you saw, do you think Larry had to kill
him?”
“He already stabbed him in the shoulder and leg but
the guy kept coming, so yes, I think he did.”
“How many wounds did Larry give the man?”
“Three, one in the shoulder, one in the leg and the
one across the neck.”
“This story played out because that’s exactly where
the wounds were.”
“Which leg and which arm?”
“The arm, I think was the one without the knife, I
have no idea which leg.”
“How can you not know if you were there?”
“I almost got raped and I was trying to figure out
where Larry had come from, I wasn’t paying close attention to every detail, I
just wanted Larry to win.”
“Did you say
anything to Larry?”
“No”
“What happened after
that?”
“Well I accused Larry
of setting up the whole thing to get in bed with me.”
“Do you believe that
now?”
“No”
“Why?”
“Larry’s not
sadistic enough to get beaten bloody, stabbed, and slit by a knife and kill
just for me.”
“How do you know?”
“It doesn’t make
sense, if he was planning on it, why would he bloody himself, that’s obviously
a turn off, plus he was going to take me home.”
“Where did you
really go?”
“Are my parents
going to find out about this?”
“We won’t tell her,
everything you say here, stays here unless it goes to court.”
“Will it?”
“I don’t know just
answer what did happen.”
“Well Larry was very
weak because he had taken a beating. I
helped him to his car and covered the seats with newspaper so to not get blood
on his car. Then I took him to my
friend’s house I knew was vacant and nursed his cuts. That’s when I knew the cuts were real and not
staged. Then I laid him in bed and he
fell asleep immediately. I got ready for bed, because I had to spend the night
there since I have neither a license nor a car. I lied down facing Larry to see
any reaction on his face to tell me whether he was expecting sex or not. Larry’s face did not change since he really
was asleep so I lied there for about 15 minutes. Larry made no move whatsoever so he wasn’t
expecting sex; he did it to help me.”
“So you just slept,
nothing happened between you.”
“Well……I…..Does it
really matter, this was only about the murder, I already told you that part, what
difference does it make what happened after?”
“You mentioned he
could have staged it.”
“Then I told you
that I was wrong.”
“I know”
“Well I don’t want
to answer that question”
The police officer
knew this was her right, but he also knew that she did have sex or else she
wouldn’t have been so defensive. Her
story and Larry’s story matched so the prosecutor went to the public and
informed them it was a self-defense case and the participants involved did not
wish to release their names. Some people
knew it was Larry and Alex but only those that knew them. Alex and Larry remained plutonic friends but
neither would forget that day.
