"That doesn't make any sense, Detective Rose. We found their prints on the knife." One technician said.

"Of course, if we only looked at the clues directly presented to you, then yes, we clearly have a murder and our prime suspects. However, there are pieces of evidence that we are overlooking." Kalina said, walking over to the body. "The carpet here is damp and has an indent in it."

Kalina walked over to the chair next. "Isn't it strange that this chair is laying here? Ronald was home, according to the lovebirds. No one else was here, and he was by himself. So why would he bring the chair out of the dining room and into the living room?"

"That's a good point. I didn't think of that, but you said there was no murder. That's impossible. I mean, the guy has a knife sticking out of his back." A technician said. "There's no way someone could stab themself in the back."

"Well, if you think about it, it's elementary, my dear technician. He froze the knife in a block of ice, then jumped backwards from the chair and landed on the knife." Kalina said, she turned to Anyiah, "I'm sorry you had to find out this way, but your husband ended his own life."

"But why would he do such a thing? He never seemed upset or depressed." Aniyah said, tearing up.

"Uh Detective Rose, I found this." a technician said, coming down from the stairs. "It's Robert's suicide note."

Kalina turned to Aniyah. "You wanted answers Aniyah, here they are." Kalina turned back to the technician and continued, "You don't have to read the whole thing, but tell us Ronald's story."

"Alright detective, but this is a hard story to hear." the technician cleared his thought, then continued. "Ronald had wanted children for quite some time. So much so that he talked to his wife, and they tried for a baby. However, Aniyah could not get pregnant. Not because there were complications with her or Ronald. She was aborting the child each time she got pregnant."

Everyone's eyes went wide, and they looked over at Aniyah. Derenik scooted further from Aniyah on the couch.

"Ronald discovered what his wife was doing because he handled all the finances, so when he received the bill from the abortion clinic, he understood what was going on. By the time he saw the third set of clinics, he stopped trying for a child. They didn't touch each other for a month, partially because he was so hurt. So even though his wife would start with him, he couldn't bring himself to touch her." the technician turned the page. "Later on, Aniyah went on a girl's trip for a month with a few of her girlfriends that are also staying at home wives. That's when he decided he would better himself for his wife. He started hitting the gym more and improved his diet. He really changed his life around just so he could be a better husband and then finally she would have his child."

The technicians that were standing behind me they were in the foyer now listening to their coworker. One was wiping a tear from his eye and the other was rubbing his back.

"Then one day when he was working from home, it was hot in his office, so he cracked open a window to let in some air. While he was working, he heard his wife giggling outside. Ronald could only think that she was excited to see him and was laughing with excitement to tell him about the trip. But to his dismay, when he looked down from the window, he saw Aniyah giggling as Derenik was kissing her neck in their driveway. When he was finished, they paused, looking at each other in their eyes, then locked lips and shared a long deep kiss." The technician said, flipping to the next page. "He didn't confront them right away because the sight of his wife stepping out of his marriage devastated. He had thought that he was just another terrible husband, but he was just being used. Although he had hoped his wife would come to her senses or Derenik would have some morals to break this arrangement with a married woman. With a feeling that he can't trust his wife anymore, he decided he would set up cameras around the inside and outside of the house."

Derenik started running his hands through his hair. Aniyah stared at the ground, arms crossed, her left leg bouncing up and down like a jackhammer.

Another technician came down from upstairs with a few flash drives in his hand. "Detectives, we found these in the study. They contain security footage of inside the house and around the exterior. Fair warning it's some clips are pretty graphic."

"There won't be any need to watch the videos. I think we can just use our imagination." I said. There was no need for us to watch Ronald's pregnant wife get defiled by his neighbor. Wait...

"For months Ronald watched his wife commit adultery in high definition. Then what broke the camel's back was when he was changing out their old box spring and found a pregnancy test tucked underneath the bed." The technician cleared his throat. "This next part, guys, is pretty rough, so I will be even more brief than I already have."

"Ronald looked at the test, it was positive. Ronald knew the child wasn't his. They hadn't had sex in months. Completely betrayed, he felt into a deeper depression. Although he knew she was going to abort the child just like she had done for his. So again, he kept silent. Then one day he opened a doctor's bill, and it was for a baby ultrasound." The technician said.

Everyone was looking at Aniyah continued to stare at the ground, but her leg wasn't bouncing anymore. Instead, she was looking off into the distance. Her face was now not full of sadness and regret, but one of anger and dismay.

"Devastated at the revelation, his wife will have kids with another man. Ronald wrote how he would end it all and did exactly what Kalina described." The technician finished his story. Then we all looked at Ronald on the floor.
