Quote from Lieutenant Disher in Mr. Monk and the Voodoo Curse
Lieutenant Disher: Victim number three, Robert Boyd, 64 years old. Guy was a big fish. He owned Boyd Teletronics, you know, the cell phone company? So, according his niece, Angeline Dilworth, that's her right over there, he's had a bad ticker for years. She's been worried about him, especially this last week. Adrian Monk: Why is that? Captain Stottlemeyer: Apparently, he was obsessed with the voodoo killings. He was watching the news, following the case. Lieutenant Disher: He's real superstitious. Adrian Monk: Yeah, so I see.
