Theory

I have always assumed Boone was an ally/operative of Derrick Moss. Their back stories are similar, and they had laid foundation for more to their relationship being unfolded over time. It would be strange for a CEO in this universe NOT to have criminal operative retainers. There was a plot against him at his company, they murdered his wife and framed his lieutenant. I think that's where they were going if they hadn't killed one and if they had the time.
