“More than $2,000 worth of merchandise. Surely you understand why the store finally pressed charges.”

“Yes, sir.”

“Then give me one reason I shouldn’t send you to jail.”

Walter turned sharply toward me.

“Margaret, sit down.”

I had lived next door to Walter for 30 years, and I had never seen him look so frightened.
