The guilty // Chicago PD

The families

"You ok?" Simmons ask as he leans on the doorframe to Eris's office. She couldn't sleep so has been here since 6 am.

"Nope. I have to ask a grieving family something so disturbing. I don't even know I can do it" Eris stares up from the piece paper she is holding.

Matt can see the pain behind her eyes. He moves across the room and sits in front of her reading the paper she hands over gracefully. Falling back into her chair defeated. She hates cases involving kids.

"Are we really proposing this?" Simmons asks, just as disgusted as she is, Eris just nods "there has to be another way to get in?"

"Nope, I've spoken to cyber. The only way to look legitimate and continue the status on the site. Is to post photos that haven't been posted before. We have his hard drive full of photos. They've done the due diligence, he wasn't able to post any photos yet" Eris explains, re reading the request again.

"Shales signed off?" Simmons asks.

"I am meeting with her in" Eris quickly glances at her Samsung watch. "28 minutes" she groans.

"Ok, this is what we are going to do. You are going to walk me through this again. While Lori grabs coffee" Matt calms her down as he leans over to move her desk phone, he presses speed dial 5, Lori cell as she is not in "hey Lori, it's Simmons"

"Hey Matt, is everything ok with Eris?" Lori ask concerned for her friend and boss. Eris just groans the background.

"Yeah she just stressing about her request with Shales. Can you pick her up a coffee please? Usual but probably best for an extra shot" Matt try's to laugh.

"Yeah will do. I'll be 15" Lori says and hangs up.

Eris then spends the next 20 minutes going through her request in painful detail, so painful that Matt can't see how they can't see it's good for the case and allow Eris to propose this to the family. Although they will propose this to the family, the laptop and all content now belongs to the FBI and they can use this for their case without permission.

"Hey so I called shales assistant and got her order as well. Hopefully this will help with your request" Lori calls out from her desk.

"Lori do I tell you I love you enough?" Eris laughs as she exits her office grabbing the two iced coffees and heading up to Shales office on the floor above. "Hey Katie, I have an appointment" Eris smiles as Shales assistant as she approaches her desk.

"Yeah she's ready for you, let me get that for you" Katie gracefully gets up from her desk and opens the door to the offices.

"Hey I got you a coffee" Eris smiles handing it over to her boss.

"Morning, oh whatever you're about to pitch is not going to be good" Shales nervously laughs

"Nope, far from it. I'm not sure we've ever had a situation like this in the BAU. Before I go ahead I want to say I have spoken to cyber and violent crimes. Both have come to the same conclusion we have. We have the two dead teenagers, Sammie and Charlie plus the offender. Whilst interviewing him, it has become clear that the only way to gain any further intel into this pedophile ring and potentially trafficking ring, is by becoming active on the site. This is way bigger than than four dead girls. But after cyber has done some digging the only way we get further into the ring is by posting new and fresh photos" Eris trails off as Shales reads further into request.

"Are suggesting what I think you are?" She asks, Eris nods. "You've got support from by cyber and violent?" Eris nods again "I agree with your findings, I'm signing off on this request. Do what you need to"
