DT = Detective Tremain
QB = Detective Quentin Blakely
DB = David Brickwell, the witness.

DT: Hello sir. I am Detective Tremain and this is Detective Blakely. Do you think you can talk to us?

DB: I think so.

QB: Can you state your name and address for the record?

DB: I am David Brickwell and I reside at 11 Trenton Square here in Redington.

DT: Can you tell us why you are here tonight?

DB: I accepted an invitation. Leonard invited me and I came.

QB: I heard that you two were more like rivals. Why would Kaminsky bothering with inviting you?

DB: He wanted to rub my nose in his so-called find. I just came for a good laugh…I don’t really make it a secret I hated the guy. He’d probably get hit by a parked car.

QB: Do you still have the invitation?

DB: No. I dropped it in a paper bin as soon as I could. It wasn’t really that decorative.

DT: Did you meet anyone you know?

DB: No, it was a really boring party. I briefly caught a glimpse of Cassandra Carr, but she was too busy talking to her husband. I decided not to bother her and I doubt she’s seen me.

DT: How did you know her?

DB: Seen her in a magazine somewhere, I think.

QB: You didn’t see Mr. Kaminsky any time during the evening?

DB: No. Really weird now I come to think of it. I would’ve expected some sarcastic greeting from him.

QB: Where were you when you heard the shot?

DB: I was in the garden walking around talking to people.

DT: You just said, you didn’t know any of them.

DB: I am a social person. I like to talk to people, even if I don’t know them.

QB: That will be it for the moment. Anything you want to add?

DB: No.

DT: See you later then.

DB: Goodbye detectives.
