Steve looked at Adeline and shook her hand after she introduced herself. He could tell she wasn't going to get scared off that easily. He had also heard her name around the station a few times but he had never put a face to the name. He had even read a few of her articles. With a defensive tone she said to him, “Don’t get that look. I am not one of those reporters who gets off on making up facts. I want the real story. The public needs to know what they need to be concerned about, the truth.” He certainly respected her for those words. He pause for a second and then met her eye level.

"Im going to be honest with you Miss Helder, We don't have much yet and he is loose in the city....... We've got our best people on the case and we will bring him back into custody as swiftly and soon as possible, But the Hand Print Killer hurt a lot of People and has made a lot of enemies, The last thing we need is people going on manhunts and searching for this guy. If you broadcast this across the city that might happen and we don't need more people getting hurt. " He stepped a few more steps towards her. "I hope you understand that." He hoped she was getting the message.
