John Adams

John led them to the bedroom he shared with Shantae. They studied the room.

I spoke with John Harper the first night and stuff, told him my side of the story.

To the house. And dropped her off? No. And went to shower. And then we're there.

Are you supposed to be at work at 6 or 5? It was 9. You can ask her. I always show up earlier.

Yeah, but I show up earlier sometimes.

They were trying to pressure me to confess what they were trying to do.

I was. I was very upset. They hurt. I don't have a bone in my body to do something like that to someone.

There were things, you know, she'd just get mad for certain reasons. There would be times where I just had to, I'd walk away. I wouldn't yell really at her or argue with her, you know. But, I mean, there and that, we stayed together, you know, made it work, you know.

Yep.

And it made me mad. Knowing damn well I didn't do nothing. I did nothing but protect her.

What else did I miss about Shante? Her laughter. Maybe when she smiled and just laughed and not mad at you. She was like my best friend.

He used to ride around with him and stuff. And he used to just do stupid stuff. And he'd, like, ride around with a drone.

We was yelling her name and just trying to see anything that was out of ordinary or see if we could just get lucky to find her, you know.

Yeah, he was.
