Robbery Turns Deadly                                                  09:25:37
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In a local paper with a flair for the sensational, there is an article about a
robbery gone bad. (Dated sometime in the last week or so). The story buried
beneath the Charity work and 'good news of the day' fare that is typical this
time of year.

	In an act worthy of the Grinch, a robbery turned deadly has turned the
Holiday Season into a somber affair for the friends and family of Elvira "Evie"
Adams. Co-Owner of the Artists' Guild on D St. and Fifth Ave.
	A painting was stolen and when Ms. Adams responded to an alarm being
set off, shots were fired with deadly consequences.
	Police are looking for anyone who may have tips pertaining to the
painting that was stolen, or the man responsible for Ms. Adams' death.

(Ed) Hey. Just getting to this phone... No. Evie is gone. :(
OMG. Do you have any updates? Nothing since the news on the 23rd
(Ed) Nothing solid as of yet. Not likely going to make the paper again. I mean, a B&E is common enough and everything suggests that it was random. I have a license plate number of the car from the video feed.
What ever you do, don't do anything final or permanent yourself. Evie would not want that.
(Ed) I am just digging. Her BF gets first dibs on anything I find.
She had a boyfriend? Wow! Its like I didn't even know her. If he wants it give him my contact info.
(Ed) I guess she talked with me more than most. .
Guess so. And that's okay. What's happening with her remains?
(Ed) I was going to leave that up to Tabin... Kinda already feel like I was infringing on things.
Tabin=BF I assume?
(Ed) Yup. Honestly, the whole thing has me a bit meh.
I grok that. Just don't surrender to ennui.
(Ed) Seems that Evie dated by boss at one point, which kinda... Yea. Oie. The BF had dealt with that that before, so was watching Evie's nighttime friend visits kinda squirrely. Came looking. And then Evie died and Bobbi came looking. I don't even know why I'm still here, TBH. I have to go. I'll talk with you later.
Be safe. Sleep well today.
