He was not a brother in an idealized or even a normal way for a long time, dating back conveniently to the year 2000. That is the year I will use as a starting place even though the cracks and signs were evident before that. That year there is a fact I can cite. I gave his family a state of the art, circa 2000 cellphone with a special friends and family price plan. That is a figurative stake in the ground.
Writers remember. They like to learn. It always gets better, more insightful and closer to the truth the second, third, or more time around. Now as Barry Morphew is arrested again all the circumstances become evident. The legal trail from dismissal to retribution show the true plot, characters, and setting but they are complex and ephemeral. The story is now clear. The lawyers will still do their jobs but the story will not change.
Linda Stanley was right but also wrong to the level of disbarment. Her’s was quite a fall, from elected district attorney to kicked-out of her profession. But she solved the crime. Everything coming from Morphew was a lie or a threat. He is zero on the character scale and likely that will not change. His family was essential; it was the only thing propping him up.
