Kristen DiMera
"Yes, I killed Stefano. I hated him for what he did to my mother, and he refused to give me the brainwashing techniques he used on John. He said they were too dangerous to let out of his hands. I needed them to keep John! I only did it because I loved John, and I didn't want to loose him. I had to make John love me and not Marlena!"
Kristen then turns to you and speaks. "Please don't hate me, I'm not a bad person, really I'm not. I just paniced, I didn't know what to do. Then when I saw you there unconscious I put the gun in your hand and wrote that phoney blackmail note. I didn't mean for it to go this far. I'm sorry, really I am."
Marlena stands up and turns Kristen and speaks. "You used to be such a good and honorable person. What has happened to you? You have become nothing more than a liar, a schemer, and now a murderer. You make me sick!"
"Please John, understand, I did it only because I loved you!" Kristen cries.
John looks disgustinly and Kristen and says "You don't know what love is."
The police take Kristen into custody, as she is being taken away she shouts "I did it because I loved you John, I love you!"
The charges against you have been dismissed, and you are free.
