OK, I thought I'd bring my story on over here so that the last part doesn't get lost and forgotten:) The other parts can be found in my fanfiction folder over on the Marcal board. p069.ezboard.com/ftessaraeinnannexfrm2. Enjoy:)

"Jen..." Marcie said over her cell phone. "I can meet you down there... I just had to run down to the station and pick up my paycheck... Order me a burger?.. Thanks." Marcie hung up the phone, putting it in her bag, stepping into the Police Station. She didn’t particularly enjoy being there since Ron had been arrested, but it was her job, and she needed the money.
Marcie walked up to the Commissioner’s office, knocking softly, waiting for the response to enter before doing so. "Commissioner, I was just..." Marcie came to an abrupt stop at the sight of the room full of people: John, Bo, Daniel, Ron and Evangeline.
"Is this some kind of joke?" Daniel said. "Because frankly I’m not amused."
"Just relax, Colson," Bo said.
"What’s going on?" Marcie asked looking around the room. "Is this about the case? Did you finally figure out that Ronnie’s innocent?"
"Marcie..." Bo said. "It’s just a meeting and we’re..."
"Oh good you’re all here," Nora said entering the office. "Marcie... I’m glad you’re here too. You can be a big help."
"Can you just be a little bit more specific, Nora?" Daniel said. "We’re working with a capital murder charge here."
"Of course," Nora said. "Bo... John... you’ve got the wrong man." Marcie smiled. "Ron Walsh couldn’t have possibly killed those girls. As a matter of fact, I can place him miles away from victim #1, Susan Gelman, the night she was murdered. And I have two people here who can prove it." She looked at Marcie. "I know you’re probably not familiar with the timeline of the murders, but once you are..."
"So where’s the alibi?" Daniel said.
Nora opened the office door and poked her head out. "You can come in now," she said.
Marcie watched the door anxiously to see the face of the person who would keep Ron out of jail. Her eyes widened as her brother stepped into the doorway.
"Jerry?" Marcie said.
"Jerry Walsh drove down here from Ridgeview, New Jersey." Nora paused. "The date of the first murder was September 20th."
"So?" Daniel said.
Marcie smiled. "There’s no way that Ronnie could have done it."
"We were with Ron all day on the 20th," Jerry said.
"It’s... an awful long time back to remember the specific day," John reasoned.
"I remember the day." Jerry said. "Marcie too I’m sure." Marcie nodded. "September 20th... we were all at Newark International Airport."
Marcie swallowed. "It was the day that Eric got called to active duty. We saw him off."
"That’s right" Ron said. "That’s right, check the flight records."
"And you can call the college," Marcie said. "They excused me from all my classes that day. I’m sure they have records."
"And... airport medical services." Jerry added. "Pop was having chest pains..."
"Yeah," Ron said. "I signed for him. I signed the papers. Pull the copies. there have to be copies."
Bo looked at John. "So does this mean that Ron can go?" Marcie asked. "Now that you know..."
"We’re going to call New Jersey," John said. "Corroborate your story."
"We should do that now." Bo said looking around the room.
Ron looked at Jerry and Marcie as Bo managed to usher everyone out of the office. "I don’t know what to say to you two." Ron said. "Jerry... for coming all the way down here..."
"You should have called me" Jerry said. "This would have killed Dad if he found out, Ron."
"Another reason I didn’t call," Ron said. "Jerry... thanks."
Jerry nodded. "You know... I was thinking I might stick around for a while."
"But what about your job?" Marcie said.
"I have some vacation time coming up. I would kind of like to stay here for a while."
"Jerry..." Marcie said.
"Don’t argue, Marc," Jerry said. "I’ve made up my mind."
"Well..." John reentered the office. "I just got off the phone with the doctor. He places you at the airport on the 20th." Marcie smiled. "Ron... you’re free to go. Sorry for the misunderstanding."
"Just as long as you catch the guy who really killed those girls." Ron said, standing. "Just get this guy."
"It’s our main focus." John said. "Believe me."
"Let’s get you out of here." Jerry said to Ron. "Marcie?"
"I’ll meet you at Roxy’s." She said. Ron nodded. "I just have to make a phone call first and cancel some plans." They turned to leave. "Ronnie!" she called. Ron turned back to face her and she ran to him pulling him into an embrace. "I’m so glad that you’re out."
"Me too Marcie" he said "I’ll meet you at Roxy’s?"
Marcie smiled. "I’ll meet you there."
