Fallen
“Jonathon Thiroux January 14, 1850 ATTORNEY FOR THE DEFENSE, MR. SWIFT: Mr. Thiroux, describe to us what the room surrounding Miss Donovan looked like when you regained consciousness and discovered her dead.
MR. THIROUX: It was hot in the room and there was a sweet, sickly odor. It was dark, except for moonlight. Anne was lying on the sheet. She must have remade the bed with the intention of going to sleep because I had actually taken the sheet off earlier.
MR. SWIFT: Why did you do that?
MR. TH...IROUX: It was tattered.
MR. SWIFT: Tattered?
MR. THIROUX: Yes. She had hosted a visitor in her room prior to my arrival and I was offended by the evidence of that.
MR. SWIFT: So there was another man specifically in Anne Donovan’s room before you arrived?
MR. THIROUX: Actually, he was still there when I arrived. I informed Madame Conti that he needed to vacate Miss Donovan’s room as I had an understanding with her that Anne would always be available to me.
MR. SWIFT: So you were paying a retainer for her services?MoreLess
