Random Killer
“When I came to writing down an account of this grim and bizarre adventure there were key parts of it to which I couldn’t be a witness. One of them was the discovery of Guido Maroni. In a calmer aftermath I did get the details of those events from Chambrun and Hardy and Jerry Dodd, our security chief.
As I have reported, Hardy sent Sergeant Baxter to look for Guido and talk to his wife, Sarafina. Baxter was still working on the theory that Guido had gone out to buy a paper, run into some friends..., been lionized for his role in the Hammond murder, and got himself potted. The trail faded out for Baxter after a while. He located the newsstand where Guido had bought a copy of the Post. Mrs. Maroni had indicated where Guido might go to buy his paper. She’d also told Baxter of a local pub where Guido and his friends were in the habit of gathering. She’d even given Baxter the names of several of Guido’s chums.
The newsdealer remembered Guido’s buying the paper. They’d talked for a minute or two about the murders at the Beaumont, which had made the headlines.MoreLess
