Morning Thief Chap 16 Heyson Reed: Then and Now

The story so far. 

The defense fund did its job very well.  With an anonymous tip two more pigs were sent to slaughter by their own hands and dirty deeds to one another.  The New Kid and the Uninvited Guest got into an argument and had an old fashioned O K Corral shoot out.  The Uninvited Guest put three bullets in Heyson Reed just before taking his own life.   

 

Local News was being spoon fed a crock of BS by the police department about the slain officers were ambushed during a burglary attempt at the cleaners. 

 

Lil’ Man feels that his actions are what caused Heyson Reed to be shot three times in the line of duty.

 

Heyson Reed doesn’t remember all of the facts surrounding getting shot three times but one thing is clear the City wants to make this all go away nice and quiet.  There has been no mention of the slop Lil’ Man delivered to the cleaners and he wont be asking any questions about either. 


Welcome to Morning Thief

 Go with us through a single yet unforgettable trip to the deep South prior to desegregation, when share-cropping was good work for illiterate Colored folk that knew their place and how to stay in it.
