I've committed murder.

There was a man - a very bad man - who was picking people up in his cab, driving them places, and forcing them to play a game they couldn't win and swallow poisoned pills. He kidnapped my best mate, I tracked them down, but was in the building across from them. He was about to make my friend swallow one of those pills, the police were late. So, I shot him.


[From a building away, through two windows, with a handgun, at night, with Sherlock partly blocking the man, he doesn't add. He's already told Bucky he could fill in for the snipers.]

I was never caught. I was never questioned. I left as soon as that man was down and I could see my mate was going to be all right. It's illegal to have a semi-automatic weapon in my country, even with a certificate, but I kept my service pistol and no one knew about it.
