It had been 24 hours since the shooting, and neither of them had slept.

But Frison did not think they'd be able to do that anytime soon, because the security camera footage had just arrived.

And Frison had put a lot of stock into this footage, like he felt really hopeful that this was going to be what they needed, because it felt like every other lead he had tried to follow so far in this case had already hit some kind of dead end.

He'd just gotten off the phone with Mohammed's son, Wissam, who he had hoped, you know, might shed some light on the possibility that Mohammed was the intended target of the attack.

But Wissam had been skeptical.

He did not think the lead about his father's love triangle meant very much.

He said the mistress had been a part of Muhammad's life for a long time.

And to be honest, nobody was particularly upset about it.

Now, unlike Sylvia and Gildo, Wasam was a young and healthy man.

So theoretically, he could have been one of the shooters.

But Frizan hadn't heard anything in their call that made him think Wasam wanted to kill his father, or Helene for that matter.

So now, Frison and Messinio began scrolling through the security footage, looking for clues that could maybe point them in the right direction.

When they got to the point in the recording where the shooting actually happened, they were relieved to see they did have a clear view of the scene, and they watched it play out right in front of them.

And just like the witnesses had said, Helene's car is seen turning out of the hospital parking lot,

And then a man with a shotgun approached a window and fired twice.

Frison could see that the second man watched the whole thing from across the street at a snack bar, probably acting as a lookout.

And then after the shooting, both men ran away on foot and their faces were never visible in the footage.

And so Frison rewound the tape to see when these men arrived.

And he saw they showed up about 20 minutes before the shooting.

But it was not when they showed up that was particularly significant.
