The trial reached a fever pitch. Byron Shaw called a witness to the stand.
Everyone present recognized this witness.
It was Quincy Rhodes, the mayor of Portmire, who was in the middle of an active campaign.
Quincy Rhodes was Connor Donovan's wife; she ought to have a clear understanding of what happened back then.
At Byron Shaw's request, Quincy Rhodes recounted the events leading up to the car crash in meticulous detail, leaving nothing out.
Finally, she became emotional. The powerful woman began to shed tears in front of everyone. "I thought my husband's death was an accident..."
The rest of her words were lost in her choked sobs, but her meaning was self-evident.
Back when Connor Donovan was still alive, the two families had been on excellent terms. Elliot Sheridan was even supposed to marry Joanne Donovan.
