News quickly spread around the town about a noble losing his title. It was a rare event in Lockwood so all eyes and ears were on the case, waiting for when the outcome would be announced. After Katrina and Alessandra received their letters to visit the court, the time came for them to meet once more to discuss Desmond.
Edgar traveled with Wilma and Alessandra as a husband and as the person who had killed Desmond. He was the one to pool together all the evidence about Desmond's crimes and would be working with the court today if not for the fact he was married to Desmond's daughter.
It was brought to his attention that Katrina had complaints about him being the one to kill Desmond. She claimed he wrongfully killed Desmond not just because Desmond had committed crimes but because Edgar did it in a fit of rage for Alessandra.
