Street Walking Killer Part 8

Mr Tompkins had worked
As a mechanic nearby
The detective had found him
With little or no try
With questions to pose
Tompkins was then aware
What the detective was asking
And why he was there.
The charm he had bought
For a girlfriend before
She jilted him quickly
She didn’t want more
She said she could not
A relationship make
She then had dumped him
But the charm, she did take
The name he recalls
Sara Jenkins he said
When the detective’s eyes rolled
And all had turned red
That’s it, he got her
Is what he had thought
But now all he must do
Is make sure she’s caught
Tompkins had said 
He’d testify if need be
To put the killer away
To not set her free
