Rizzles Story

Chapter 16

In the Bullpen

Frost: Checked Kenny's alibi. He's on kidney dialysis four days a week.
Confirmed he was there during the stranglings.

Jane: Alright.

Korsak: What are you looking at Kenny for? You an internal-affairs rat or something?

Jane: Hey, easy.

Korsak: Why would you make sure a cop has an alibi?

Jane: Come on, Vince. We're just tying up some loose ends, all right? Got to make sure some jackass named Lieutenant Grant doesn't accuse me of doing shoddy police work. What -- who is this, and why is he at all of our crime scenes?

Frost: I'll run his face through facial recognition.

Trying to find a Match

Frost: Close.

Jane: Yeah. Ah, we have a winner, folks.

Frost: Let's check on the web for this guy.

Jane: Well, that's the first problem. His mom named him Sandy. Put this one the wall.

Frost: Nice website.

Jane: Really? You can't bowl or collect ships in a bottle. You've got to do this for a hobby.

Frost: Every detail of the new strangling victims is on this guy's blog.

At Sandys House

Jane: Boston police. Open up.

They go in.

Jane: Clear. Get up! Stand up! Get up!Hands all the way up! Up against the wall! Get on the bed! Oh, we got a live one.

At BPD-Interrogation Room

Jane: I'm curious as to why you were at our crime scenes. You like strangling, Sandy?

Sandy: My name's Dr.K, yo. Me and Dr.
Kevorkian are death enthusiasts. Ain't nothing illegal about that.

Jane: Interference with a police officer during performance of duty is.

Sandy: Hey, if I confess, can I look at the bodies you got in the morgue?

Korsak walks in.

Korsak: Isles, we've got a third victim.

At BPD-Morgue

Maura: Liver temp indicates she died within the last hour.

Jane: So it's not our "death enthusiast."

Maura: Well, at least he's not blogging.

Jane: Thanks for pointing out the bright side.

Maura: Researchers at the university of pittsburgh have proven that optimistic people live longer.

Jane: So she was a pessimist?

Frost: Joanne Graff -- 29.

Jane: A Joanne Graff was strangled in-- Maura. What do you see?

Maura: A reddish-brown stain.

Jane: In other words, blood.

Maura: No, a reddish-brownish stain.
The crime lab will determine what it is.
No signs of lacerations or abrasions on the victim.

Jane: So it's not hers, which means we might have gotten lucky and the killer was bleeding. Or smearing reddish-brownish stuff.

Korsak walks in.

Korsak: We got lucky. Red's car has been located. Towing it to evidence now.

Jane: See? You just got to remain optimistic.
