" I know this is going to be difficult for you. It is very important though. You were sitting
at the table next to the lady and we need to know what you saw and heard. Can you try to tell me?"
"Can I have a kleenex? I don't mean to be such a baby. Where is my friend's mom. You know she brought us here to celebrate our thirteenth birthdays, my friend and me."
"She is inside with another officer giving her statement too. She's not far away. Why don't we try to finish this up quickly and you can get back with her and your friend."
"My mom is going through a divorce you know. I wonder if something like this could happen to her. My dad hits her when he drinks. Can I call her? My mom, I mean, to make sure she's okay."
"Sure sweetie, just as soon as we've heard what you saw and heard. We'll make sure your mom is okay. Can you tell me what the man looked like, if he appeared angry?"
"Well, he had on navy dockers with a red polo shirt. It looked like something my dad would wear. The woman was drinking tea when he came up. He was walking fast and her face looked like my mom's does just before dad hits her."
"I need more Kleenex, please."
"I've never seen so much blood. It splattered everywere. It is all over the sleeve of my blouse. Everyone just froze for a while, then tried to leave all at once. The police and ambulance got here really fast."
Did you see where the man went? Did he get in a vehicle with anyone?"
"No. He ran off. Cars almost hit him but he didn't get in one. He ran down an alley and I didn't see him anymore."
"Can I call my mom now?"
"Sure honey, let me get you to the restaurant office. You did great."
