89. The corruption network
Peter explains to Laura that, as well as including Turner, the network of corruption that he’s investigating is much bigger than he thought.
Laura: But once we had evidence, on the memory card, why wasn’t Turner reported then?
Peter: You will see, it isn’t just Turner. We want to arrest all of the corrupt police that work with him. I needed a bit longer to gather evidence against the others involved, but now I have everything I need.
Laura: And the matter with Jake?
Peter: When we left, Turner was going to call Donnie to get him to kidnap Jake, but I managed to convince him that it would be better if I did it. I told him that I already knew Jake and his nanny and that it would be easier. It was tricky, but I managed to convince him. In that way, I was able to make sure Jake was safe. Afterwards, I called one of the other men and pretended to be Turner, and told him to get Wilson urgently… That’s how you were able to escape.
Laura: Buddy, you saved my son!
