Britt Leach: Sergeant Cook
Quotes
-
Sergeant Cook : This is from the "Flagstaff Courier," September 12, 1967. "Bill and Ann Lynch," - the boy's parents - "were killed yesterday outside Flagstaff when their car crashed into a logging truck on Interstate 89. The cause is thought to have been brake failure." Now I talked to a few of the locals, and they remember that there were rumors about the brakes being tampered with.
Detective Joe Carlson : Cook, I hope you're doing this *shit* on your own time, because I *forbid* you for doing it on department time. Incredible!
[gives him a contemptuous look and walks away]
Sergeant Cook : [glares after him] Schmuck!

Detective Joe Carlson : [in the hallway of the police station] Cook, walk with me. Julie Lyndon's mother called and complained about you scaring the shit out of her daughter. What were you doing out there?
Sergeant Cook : Well, I was just checking. See, I don't think Billy Lynch had anything to do with the murder. I kinda' see it differnt.
Detective Joe Carlson : Oh, is that right? And how is that?
Sergeant Cook : Well, for one thing, Miss Roberts caught Julie and the boy in the sack together. That kinda' weakens the fag story.
Detective Joe Carlson : [glares at him] The victim was a fag, the coach *is* a fag, and the kid is a fag. He grew up without a father, with only women around. That's a classic case, Cook.
