TWO CODES FOR MURDER A True Crime Story

Softcover. The students at Lewis Junior High crowded around the exit door but were locked in. They clamoured to see who had been shot. "Jericha, look! It's your mother! They got her!" That day was the beginning of another chapter in the paradise-turned hell of Charlene's marriage to Floyd. A dating service brought Floyd and Charlene together. During their courtship Floyd charmed, romanced and lied his way into Charlene's heart, convincing her to become his "forever girl". Thus began the story of a woman whose dreams for a long and love-filled marriage became hellish nightmares of threats, violence, and eventually, her attempted murder. Using code words was Floyd's way of life. Only Floyd and his best buddies knew what they meant. He even had a code for murder. When the hitmen completed their mission of murder in front of Lewis Junior High School where Charlene was waiting for one of her daughters, they paged him with that code as the contract demanded. But, they botched the job and Floyd got caught. At the trial, snickers floated through the packed courtroom as the defence lawyers derisively repeated "Wahbee, Wahbee", what the prosecution claimed was Floyd's code for the hit. Only it wasn't funny to Charlene. She knew who had made it up and what it meant. The challenge was how to prove it. Featuring Floyd and Charlene Mitlieider.
