"There are a whole lot of people working around the clock to find out who killed your husband, Mrs Califano"

"Yes, I would iine so" Her voice was quite without emotion, as if she’d simply put a cork in the bottle

"When Justice Califano went to the Supre to think about Please, try to remember, Mrs Califano What could it have been? Did you have an argu like that?"

She sighed, clasped her hands in her lap She was very pale "I’ve already told you three or four ti up, the death penalty case in Texas Also, before you ask again, we didn’t have an arguht occasionally All couples do, Detective Aren’t you h"

"The guards at the Supreht Justice Califano see heavily on his mind" This was a stretch, but worth a try "You were closer to hi at hiain, fanned her hands in front of her "Oh, all right I kneas upset at Su inappropriate with hter toldto interview Justice Wallace I hope it won’t co, but now I suppose you want to know the rest of it My husband knew about what Sumner had done as well because ISu I just couldn’t bear the hypocrisy of it, so I told him what Sumner had tried with ry, as you’d expect I don’t know if he confronted Suain, which surprisedabout that on Friday night? I don’t know, Detective Raven"

"Justice Sumner Wallace denied this, ma’am"

"Well, naturally Wouldn’t you?"

"I suppose I would His wife did as well"

She shook her head "Poor Beth She puts up with a lot fro with this?"

"Not well, neither of them were Two federalI’m sure, but still an invasion of their privacy, and a constant reer Also, since reporters were camped out in their front yard, they felt like prisoners"

"I so wish Callie weren’t a reporter," she said "Doing that to people when they’re in such obvious distress, and then trying to justify it with that idiotic refrain they so quickly toss out--‘the public’s right to know’ It’s only an excuse, of course"

Since he agreed with that assessment wholeheartedly, he nodded "Let me ask you this, Mrs Califano Sue when he should be settled, he’s a Justice of the Supre to hi, so very incompatible hat he’s supposed to be--a reasoned brilliant legal e issues for our country"

"Yes, I suppose it would come as an unpleasant surprise, but the fact remains he’s still a man, a man who’s carried on a number of affairs all his adult life In my experience, particularly in politics, it’s not at all uncoreat deal of power to exploit the woree with that, too much evidence to the contrary He wanted to point out that Justice Wallace also had six grandchildren, but he kept his ht confront him on Friday, Mrs Califano?"

"No, no hint at all, like I’ve already told you, Detective No, wait a moment Now that I think about it, I did hear Stewart on the phone--not on Friday, but last Wednesday, I think He wasn’t happy On the other hand, he wasn’t screa to Sumner, I can’t say"

"What did you hear your husband say?"

She was quiet ain her lap

"So about ‘You will stop this i those lines That’s all I really remery"
