Now Flowers was arguing the same thing back to him. If Dannon and Carver had killed Tubbs, Lucas wouldn't find out about it except by accident. If justice were to be done, it would have to be extrajudicial.
In the narrative of "Silken Prey" by John Sandford, Flowers emphasizes the difficulty of uncovering the truth behind Tubbs' murder. He argues that even if Dannon and Carver are responsible, the official channels of justice may not reveal their guilt, leaving Lucas oblivious unless he stumbles upon evidence by chance. This highlights a systemic failure in the legal framework.
Therefore, Flowers suggests that if true justice is to be achieved, it might require action that falls outside the standard judicial process. This raises moral questions about the legitimacy of extrajudicial methods in the pursuit of justice.
