Law of Gravity

Frank and Mike met at a local diner where he tried to solicit him a favor but was stopped by Mike before he could explain. So Frank instead solicited two prostitutes, one for him and the other for Dennis. He then went into Dennis' room and shot him at point blank range. The hooker he was with tried to escape but was shot by Frank and scratched him in the process, leaving his DNA under her fingernails. He cut off her hand to get rid of the evidence and took it with him. Little did he know that their was a witness to the crime, his hooker who bolted afterwards. Afterwards he blackmailed Mike into covering up his crime and to find that hooker. In the process Mike found out Frank raped Amy and set a trap for him. He held him at gunpoint with Suzy behind him where he confronted him on what Frank did. In the process Suzy escaped and Frank tried to kill her but Mike saved her and Catherine barges in where Frank tried to shot her but was shot and killed by Mike while leaving his colleagues the evidence needed to prove Frank was a murderer.
