Duckie unlocked the door of the crime scene once more, the forensic team was coming in to take another look at the house and see if they could find any evidence of more victims that Mr. Harrison may have captured. The detective couldn't imagine Brendon being his first victim, but he also couldn't imagine where the other victims were.

Another team had gone to look around the house the criminal had set as a decoy. The detective preferred to search over the main house once more, there was always something else to find that might be able to use evidence. There was not a doubt in Duckie's mind that Robert S. Harrison wouldn't be convicted, he wanted to be absolutely positive that he was found guilty of as many charges as possible.

"Sir, you might want to come look back here." A young officer that was working under Duckie called out.

"What is it, Tyler?" Duckie found the lanky boy standing at the back screen door.

"We were searching the back yard with the cadaver dog and we found something."
The skinny man stated, turning and walking back out to the place the large dog was lying.

When the detective got out to the back and say the dog lying, with his ears pricked, waiting for his handler to award him. Another officer spray painted a line in the grass around the animal to mark where to dig. Running his hand through his hair, Duckie instructed his team to get shovels and get to work.

"I can't believe it, I knew this guy was terrible, but I never even thought he would-" Tyler started, but his superior was quick to cut him off.

"When dealing with these kinds of people you have to suspect everything. The case I was working on before, I found out a college student had cut up a bunch of women and placed their body parts into tupperware containers. When dealing with these monsters you learn to expect anything." The man spoke in a monotone voice.

"Yea I guess. . ." The young trainee trailed off.

"It's okay, you eventually start to realise some things. Plus, it's your first big case, don't beat yourself up." The older ruffled the young man's had before going to join some more experienced detectives to ask their opinions.

"Look, Dizzie, I know it's short notice, but I really need an autopsy on this body tonight. . . No, I totally understand you have a date tonight and this person doesn't care about your past. . . Lindsie come on, there is something different about this body, I need it examined as soon as possible. . . Yes, I'm sorry for using your full name, but look we found this body in Harrison's backyard, well the cadaver dog found it. . . No you can't pet the dog, the dog's not coming. . .

"Fine, what if I promise to take you to meet all of the dogs, and you can play with them to. . . No, Dizzie, there are no police cats. Look, you are the best forensic anthropologist we have. . . Yes I understand that this girl is really hot. . . Can you do it or not? . . .

"Mhmm . . .Mhmm . . . Thank you, thank you, thank you, yes!

Fine I'll meet you there in half an hour, I'll have your team bring the body in. . . Thank you for doing this Dizzie."

"So, how is Dizzie doing?" Dallon smirked as he sipped his beer and played with Brendon's hair, the boy was sitting in the officer's lap, watching the TV show Bones

"It is sooooo obvious that the kid did it, she said that before she blacked out she saw a green eye. The guy is wearing a necklace with green eyes. Why haven't they figured this out yet?" Brendon pouted.
