Thanks for coming in, Jordan.
Two cops knocking at my door

Eddie Longo and his girlfriend
were found dead outside of his trailer.
He shot her, then killed himself.
But you knew that already, didn't you?
I think I heard something about it on the news.
We found this pig's head
in the dumpster outside of Eddie's trailer.
The prints we lifted off of it are a match
to the prints we found inside the trailer,
which I can only assume are yours.
Yes, my prints are inside the trailer.
I told you I broke in there when I gave you the mask.
And despite my warning, you went back.
I don't recall.
What happened?
Did Eddie think Carla was you and shot her by mistake?

to put myself inside the mind of Eddie Longo.
Jordan, I am trying to help you.
The only help I want is for the police
to find the men responsible for my fiancée's murder.
Eddie's brother, Mitch, and his wife, Shelley, are now missing.
