Or just mistaken?

Puzzle that.

Anyway, the Jennings quandary was not Longshore's only lead.

Meth had raised its ugly head out in the Antelope Valley.

Gangs had come right along with it.

They all knew about the murder.

Everybody had at least one opinion, sometimes more.

Of course, he checked that out, but no way Michelle used drugs.

But he did learn from the gang enforcement team that gang members had been making trouble in the park and ride, stealing hubcaps, rims, anything they could get their hands on for quite a while.

Oh, and the confessing?

Well, that was not to Longshore, and it wasn't really confessing.

More like taking credit for Michelle's murder so they could use it for a shakedown.

Jennings wasn't any help in that department.

Gangs?

He said he didn't see any of that in the park and ride before or after the murder.

Nobody at all, for that matter.

Nobody else in the parking lot.

As far as he was telling us, right?

So, not a gang.

Anyway, why would gangbangers attack and kill a sweet, church-going kid who had no connection to them whatsoever?
