Chapter 8 - WHY WALTER TURNED IT OFFWalter’s explanation sounded reasonable.

Too reasonable.

The camera had been sending excessive motion notifications because Christmas decorations moved in the wind.

He disabled it.

Property manager confirmed the porch wreath had triggered repeated alerts.

So there went my imagined conspiracy.

Good.

I had to learn that again.

Suspicious fact.

Reasonable explanation.

Move on unless evidence says otherwise.

But the driveway camera had captured something else.

At 3:22 p.m. on Friday, eight minutes after Walter disabled the porch camera, Bryce and Walter stood near the side of the cabin.

No audio.

Bryce demonstrated a shoulder motion.

Walter shoved him lightly back.

Both laughed.

Could have been football technique.

Could have been discussing the earlier incident.

No way to know.

Video cannot read minds.

I wanted certainty.

It refused.
