I don't mind being a suspect when the corpse is a shit-for-brains fuckwit, but if I'd killed her it would've been bloody and loud. And I'd have enjoyed it too much to keep it to myself.
In "Celebrity in Death" by J.D. Robb, the protagonist expresses a blunt perspective on being considered a suspect in a murder case. The character is indifferent to the victim’s negative qualities, indicating that their disdain for the deceased diminishes any concern over the suspicion. This sentiment reveals a complex relationship between the character's morality and the nature of the crime they are accused of.
Furthermore, the character emphasizes that if they had indeed committed the act, it would have been a much more violent and theatrical occurrence. This statement underscores their awareness of their own capacity for enjoyment in chaos and violence, suggesting a deeper introspection into their character's motivations and responses to extreme situations.
