OFFICER WILSON: What about websites? Did the girls ever go into chat rooms or have contact with anyone online?

JOHN DOVER: No! Never. At least, not that I know of and definitely not at school. What’s going on? What does this have to do with my class?

OFFICER WILSON: I’m hoping to see the girls’ notes and list of references. Do you have that?

JOHN DOVER: I think so. They’d be somewhere in my classroom. I can go get them for you when we’re done here.

OFFICER WILSON: That would be great. You live a few blocks from the Landry home, correct?

JOHN DOVER: I’m not sure. I don’t know their address. I’m sure I live a few blocks from a lot of my students.

OFFICER WILSON: But you live just a few blocks away from the train yard? Is that right?

JOHN DOVER: Yes, but why—

OFFICER WILSON: Where were you the night of Sunday, April 15?

JOHN DOVER: Wait a second… I don’t understand…

OFFICER WILSON: We are asking the same question of every individual who came into contact with the girls recently.

JOHN DOVER: You’re talking to all the teachers?

OFFICER WILSON: We’re talking to anyone who has direct contact with the girls.

JOHN DOVER: After school I went into Grayling to go out with some other teachers from school.

OFFICER WILSON: You went all the way to Grayling?

JOHN DOVER: Yeah, it’s no fun running into parents of students at the local bar. We ate at the Airliner and hit a few more bars.

OFFICER WILSON: What time did you get home?

JOHN DOVER: Midnight, I guess—give or take a half hour. Then I went right to bed.

OFFICER WILSON: By yourself?

JOHN DOVER: By myself.

OFFICER WILSON: So no one can vouch for your whereabouts between midnight and 1:00 a.m.?

JOHN DOVER: I guess not.

OFFICER WILSON: Tell me about your teaching job prior to coming to Pitch.

JOHN DOVER: I don’t… What’s that have to do with this?

OFFICER WILSON: Just being thorough. Where did you work before coming to Pitch?

JOHN DOVER: At the high school in Willow Creek. But I don’t understand why you’re asking me this.

OFFICER WILSON: Why did you leave?

JOHN DOVER: I just… I wanted to move closer to where I grew up, to my parents.

OFFICER WILSON: So you left Willow Creek on good terms.

JOHN DOVER: As far as I’m concerned, we did.

OFFICER WILSON: So, I’ll take that as a no.

JOHN DOVER: You can take it however you want.

OFFICER WILSON: Rumor has it that you had an inappropriate relationship with a student.

JOHN DOVER: Not true.

OFFICER WILSON: You know I’m going to call Willow Creek, don’t you?

JOHN DOVER: Go for it. There’s nothing there.

OFFICER WILSON: Then you have nothing to worry about, do you? What happened?
