chapter ten ; you never know who's who
[ season three, episode six ]

"WHAT DO WE GOT?" Hank asked Antonio. They were in the bullpen. The other night, the team seized a bunch of guns from the victim, who was found in a car in the park.

"Victor Cullen," Antonio answered. The picture of the victim was on the whiteboard. "Five years ago, he founded Peregrine. It's a corporate security firm." Hank hummed in acknowledgment. "Before that, his work history is blank for several decades."

"The M.E. is performing the autopsy as we speak," Jay informed them. "And from his preliminary findings, Cullen was dead for at least a week."

"Yeah. Patrol working the Union Park beat says Cullen's SVU wasn't there when they made their sweep the night before, so someone drove his body there and left it."

"Neighbors say he was extremely private," Amy added after Antonio. "No family in the area. He had a long-time girlfriend named Janie Saunders."

Erin's phone started ringing, and she answered it. "So Cullen's been dead a week, and she doesn't report it?" Hank questioned. That was weird. "She's suspect number one. Find her and bring her in."

"Uh, Hank, we don't have to," Erin told him. "Janie Saunders is downstairs with her lawyer.

"After this morning's news segment, my client wanted to voluntarily come in," Janie's lawyer told Amy and Erin. They sat in the interrogation room. "She's an emotional wreck, and she's only willing to admit to improper disposal of human remains."

"All right," Amy cut in. "Until we get the autopsy results in, we can't rule out foul play."

"I did not kill Victor," Janie told Amy. She then turned to Erin. "He had arrhythmia. I begged him to get treatment, but he refused. He just kept popping aspirin."
