‘Yes, but you’ve blown my chance sorting this by arresting me.’
‘Not so fast, Gary. We called in to the station earlier and checked you out. My guv’nor has spoken to Sergeant Miller in Lee.’
‘Leeford Village.’
‘I can go then?’
‘All right, Sergeant. I know the drill,’ jumps in Gary.
‘I’ve just had about enough. I don’t care about myself anymore, but Gail Perkins and Martin Frobisher?’
‘Don’t worry about them. They were followed from the cafe to a flat in Ossulston Street near the Shaw Theatre off the Euston Road. We’ve got ‘em, Gary, we’ve got ‘em.’

NORTON - Detective Sergeant Stephen R. Desfosses is hospitalized after contracting COVID several weeks ago and a fundraiser has been launched to support his family.
Desfosses has been in the ICU for a week, according to Jeffa Lombardi, who launched a GoFundMe page Dec. 28 to help Desfosses wife, Jessica, and their two daughters, Addison, 11, and Ella, 8. Jessica has taken leave from work to focus on their two daughters, Lombardi said.
“After struggling to improve at home for two weeks and feeling a serious decline in his ability to breathe, he was taken to the local emergency room,” Lombardi said. “He was immediately identified as being in critical condition and swiftly transported to Beth Israel Deaconess Hospital in Boston. Initial tests revealed blood clots in his lungs, legs, and abdomen. More importantly, he was completely unable to maintain oxygen saturation on his own.
