The victim's image took a whole 360 turn when Ms. Miranda started to narrate her unfortunate experience.
It had been a while since I have handled rape cases from the SVU and her story was the worst that I have encountered so far.
It was already almost midnight and I was still in the conference room trying to point possible victims or probably suspects too.
I frowned and massaged my brow but it was a very wrong move because every time I closed my eyes, I can't help but remember every bit of details of torture and pain that she suffered.
We could barely understand her words as she narrated her story. We have to keep her calm. Good thing there was a water dispenser in the area. She took a lot of water and a lot of calming words before she could start.
According to her, it started when she was about three months to the job. Her father had a heart attack and she needed money to pay for the operation as well as the medicines. Her only option was to get a loan since her parent's was not covered in her insurance due to existing sickness.
To her dismay, her loan was not approved so she cried herself to sleep at the women's bathroom. The next thing she knew, it was already night.
She was about to get her stuff and went home when she heard her boss. Apparently, the victim was still at the office.
He saw her teary eyes and asked what was wrong. She then started to narrate her financial problem.
"I'm willing to do anything."
Was the words that she regretted to say.
And then it started.
He was a big man and she was just barely 5"3 with very petite body.
In one swift motion, he was able to completely overpowered her.
The next thing she knew, her legs were full of blood.
He told her to fix herself up and check her account. As long as she stayed quiet, he'll take care of her family's medical care. He'll also give her the job permanently.
She broke up her engagement that same night. She felt dirty and disgusted. But she needed to suck it up for her family.
The next thing it happened was when his boss was at a business meeting. He hid her under the table and made her suck him while they were discussing.
She was being used in plain sight for a very long time.
Her ordeal didn't end up there. One weekend, she was told to deliver some paperwork for her boss. He was supposed to be sick and working from home.
She was assisted to his boss office who was just plain seating in his chair on his pj. She was given some tea by the maid which she accepted out of politeness.
And that proved to be a very wrong move.
The next thing she knew, she was naked, tied in some kind of contraption with different kinds of torture device and sex toys were prepared.
"Fuck!" I screamed at the memory.
And she was kept there for the whole weekend.
"Crazy bastard!" I can't believe someone could be that sick.
"Hey!" I looked up at the sound of a familiar voice. It was our new medical examiner. "You look like you needed a rest. It's almost midnight... Go home."
"Don't tell me what to do!" I spat and instantly regretted it. "I'm sorry..."
"It's okay. I understand. Sometimes there's really cases that sticks to you." She said.
"What are you still doing here?" I noticed that she was holding a folder so I asked. "Is that for me?"
"Yes. Here's the full report of my autopsy. Based on the angle of the wound, i have estimated the killer to be at least 5"9 and based on the depth, it was done by a woman." She concluded.
"Thank you!" I accepted the folder and began scanning the pages.
"I better go then." She said and exited the room.
"Wait! Do you have a ride home?" It was already past midnight and I just can't let her walk or commute.
"Yes. My husband is picking me up."
"Okay! And thanks for this." I sat down and started to study the report. Compared to Dr. Moore, she was more thorough. And with the information that she gave us, then we could lessen the number of suspects.
Fortunately for Alyson, a dozen of people including the nurses and doctors vouched for her alibi. The security camera helped too. His father had an operation and she stayed at the whole process with her mother.
However, she doesn't have any idea on the place where he took her. When she woke up, she was back in the house office. She thought it was just a bad dream but her bruises and pain said otherwise.
The victim's laptop caught my attention as if it was calling me. Usually it was JJ who do the IT stuff but I also got some few tricks of my own.
I opened it and was thankful that JJ had already cracked the password so I was able to log in.
Checking her files, it seemed normal. His document was full of files regarding reports and statements and his media contains pictures of his family. It looked ordinary until I noticed one thing. His memory's running low.
I checked the file size of each document as well as the media and the sum does tally up and it could only mean one thing.
He got a hidden partition.
I dug deeper and finally found what I was looking for. A set of hidden files in a very high resolution video.
Looking at the files I'm being tempted not to open them. I had a good idea what it could contain but I needed to be sure.
Finally, I decided to open one folder that was named Alyson and I was correct.
This man was so sick!
