Thus spoke Jeniffer Schecter

Chapter 1-Part 1. Cold Case

After a restfull nights sleep I came into work to find a desk stacked with papers and a very energetic young woman enthusiasticly going over them " I see you made yourself at home at my desk." She looked up and studied my face for a moment. I can tell she's been here for hours with the look on her face.

" there is so many leads here but none with a solid ground. Look, i think the first we should try is Jennifer's girlfriend at the time. Her name is Shane Mccutcheon." she said, then she held up a photo to me.

" This one kinda looks a tad rough round the edges wouldn't you say? Are you sure she's even a girl?" She gave me a look that said enough and then pulled out her criminal papers to show me. I was right in my description of her but it wasn't exactly what i expected to read, Allison smirked and went on talking I think she is enjoying playing the investigator.

" She was investigated by Duffy if you remember her, Shane was arrested when she confessed to arson against her buisness. she served a year prison time and currently resides in L.A still. She is probably our best bet if we want to start asking questions chief. I also took the liberty of viewing the Investigation tapes, not many provide suitable answers that I am looking for. but they gave me an insight of just who is involved." She said. I can see Allison is taking this case very seriously.

" So you think Miss Mccutcheon can provide something different even though its been 5 years and Officer Duffy already dried up any leads that have been thought of?" I stated. I felt bad for bursting her bubble of ideas but somebody has to keep things in reality. She looked over at the papers then looked up at me.

" look, this is my first case. You should be giving me encouragment and going through these with me." She said. She did have a point, but i really was not as enthusiastic about this like she was, however I did take it up. " Alright, So Shane Mccutcheon is it?" She looked up at me with an excited smile. " Thanks Chie--" she said as Eliza walked in.

" Good Morning Eliza, Something we can help you with?" i asked. Alisson started clearing the desk. I gestured Eliza to take a seat, she sat over near Alisson. Eliza is an emergency telephone operator but she has always been interested in forensics and investigations, it is not in her role to be helping us however she still has shown an interest in all this and i guess i have always had a soft spot for her in a brotherly, sisterly sort of way.

"I just was checking in, you know to see how the investigation is going to start out."

I gave her a quick look then returned back to going over the papers. " We were actually just deciding on going to see one of the suspects now" Allison said then gently grabbed her hand. " You could come join us if you want. I could do with somebody who knows the streets around here and understands the case."
