No movement.
Navarro doesn’t know about this place.

“Daniel sent some of their photographs to me. If I recognize them, I can help.”
“We’ll have an agent speak with you.”
“You don’t know where I am.”
“No.”
“And we’re keeping it that way,” Sean says.
I look at him.
“These girls have families.”
“I know.”
“Someone has to help identify them.”
“I know.”
“Then I need my laptop.”
“It’s evidence.”
“Sheriff Vega can send the photographs through your secure system.”
