“And what good would that have done?” Gorman asked, keeping his voice down so that no-one else in the house
could overhear. “There'd have been questions. The truth would've come out, that video would've ended up being used as
evidence and it would have entered the public domain...” He paused, watching as Michael took a seat at the kitchen table
and placed his head in his hands. “Think how many people would have ended up watching the video,” he added finally. “All
those eyeballs watching Rose as she was... It's like you said five years ago, it would have been humiliating for her. Instead,
we sorted things out ourselves. The people responsible for what happened ended up facing better justice than they ever
would've got from the court system. The only ones who suffered out of this were you and me, and that's just 'cause we know
the truth.”
