Chapter 105: Bone Search
Kate Todd hasn't been in a great mood lately.
There is no way, as a dedicated FBI agent, before the last case has been solved, he encounters a strange case, and depression is inevitable.
What's more, both of them are still big cases, and they are constantly being paid attention to by the media every day.
The Bians Valley series of cases can now be clearly identified as a serial murder case.
But the problem is that although many corpses and hiding places have been found, the murder method is uncertain, the suspects are uncertain, and no useful DNA and fingerprint clues have been found at the scene, which makes the investigation of the case completely impossible.
At the beginning, when there was only Alan Mike Eloy, Kate could still suspect the relevant personnel of the "Fatal Bend" crew, but as more bodies were discovered, this suspicion gradually became untenable.
"But why hasn't that killer committed a crime recently?"
Although it is difficult to judge the cause and time of death of the body due to technical reasons, based on the time of the missing person who has been discovered, the FBI still compares that Alan Mike Arrowy and Eliza Kunis should be the last two victims in this series of cases.
- Who made them disappear for the shortest time!
"Did the serial killer stop it?"
Kate had to have this suspicion.
In fact, many times, serial killer cases are exactly like this. Even if the police don't catch the killer, the killer will automatically disappear after a period of continuous crime.
For example, the first serial killer in the history of crime, Jack the Ripper, was like this.
After killing multiple women in a row, the shadow that pervades the foggy capital of London suddenly disappears, leaving only endless fear and speculation.
For more than 100 years, countless people have verified the true identity of Jack the Ripper, but this can only be guessed after all.
In the eyes of psychologists, this can be said to be a temporary pause after the antisocial personality of the psychopathic killer is satisfied, but for the police, what is left is an indelible shame.
And the thought of being the one who will be nailed to the pillar of shame, Kate can't help but lament.
It can't be helped, it's like a collection of the top ten goals in the World Cup, the goalscorer is glorious, but what is left for the defense can only be shame.
The same goes for police and criminals.
If the criminal is caught, the criminal will become a name in the heroic deeds of the police;
If you can't catch the criminal, the police will become a clown in the legend of the criminal.
The world is sometimes very simple.
And the second case is even worse.
The first case can also be said to be a non-war crime.
A terrible reality is that there have been many cases of serial killers in the world. But basically, as long as the killer is not arrogant enough to hide it, it will be difficult for the general police to solve the case directly.
After all, serial killers often have no contact with their victims, which makes it difficult for the police to use the usual methods of investigating social networks.
As for logical reasoning, people who can be serial killers are generally not in a normal mind. In the face of this abnormal and wandering crime-committing guy, Sherlock Holmes has nothing to do.
In fact, many serial killer cases are solved by luck.
One day, the famous serial killer overturned in the gutter because of some trivial matter, and was accidentally caught by the police with clues, so he followed the vine and turned out this big boss.
And if you're unlucky......
The second case is much more troublesome.
Jodie Foster, the Oscar-winning double actress, doesn't know if it's a conflict with the FBI. Following the Hinckley incident, she was once again involved in this kind of crime-type big trouble-
Someone actually put a human heart in her villa.
This incident once again excited reporters from newspapers large and small.
Recently, as the FBI agent in charge of this case, Judy has once again tasted the constant harassment of the media.
What's even more infuriating is that some reporters she still knows, the same guys who harassed her in the previous series of cases in the Bians Valley series.
"Fortunately, this case has some clues. β
After all, even if this "heart stealing" case is more secretive, but with a heart, there will definitely be a corresponding corpse, which must be a clue.
And yetβ
"Why did you find two corpses with no hearts!?"
Kate scratched her head in annoyance.
The god of evidence seems to be joking with Kate, and in her case, either no useful evidence can be found, or there is too much evidence at once.
"I only have one heart here, do you think the murderer still has one in his hand?"
- I have to say, this speculation is a bit scary.
In desperation, Kate had to investigate the identities of the two corpses and their behavior before death, but the results were surprisingly consistent-
"Both of these men are men, clubbing, and there is no intersection in social relationships. According to eyewitness feedback, the last night before his death was to bring a drunk girl out of the bar, andβ"
It's a pity that then it's not glamorous.
According to the forensic examination, the two men did not have sex before their deaths.
Although judging by the testimony of witnesses and the fact that they were found in the hotel, it is clear that the killers did not give them a chance.
So here comes the question -
Where did the two girls they brought into the hotel go?
Or rather, are those really two different girls?
Based on the method of murder, the forensic doctors gave a very positive judgment - the murderer was the same person.
Even now they can't be sure what the murder weapon is.
"Could it be that there's another Erin Warnos?"
Kate muttered to herself.
- Erin Warnos, a female serial killer who has just been caught in the past two years, killed six men in the 80s and early 90s.
Now this killer, if Kate's guess is correct, should be a girl.
She disguises herself as drunk and seduces the bait of ill-intentioned men, then kills them in a hotel and cuts out their hearts.
- Well, if the forensic doctor's judgment is correct, the cutting of the heart and the killing should have occurred at the same time, that is......
"This girl is a monster!"
Kate was frightened by her own speculation.
"However, she didn't leave any fingerprints, nor was she photographed on the face by the hotel's surveillance video, is she a repeat offender!?"
INTERVIEWER Do you need to look into the files of recently released female prisoners?
"And why did she give a heart to Jodie Foster? and how?"
The more Kate thought about it, the more mysteries there became. At this timeβ
"Hey, Kate, how are the two cases in your hands doing?"
Kate's friend Diana asked her.
"What else?"
Kate smiled wryly,
"I can't do anything. Speaking of which, Diana, did you have any breakthroughs over there?"
- Diana is the administrator of the FBI's Los Angeles Area Evidence Database.
Because of the recent series of egregious cases in the Los Angeles area, the FBI's top brass asked them to examine the entire inventory of physical evidence to see if they could find any useful clues from the old cases.
Of course, this kind of illness rushed to the doctor and shot birds indiscriminately, and the result was naturally -
"There was no breakthrough. β
Diana spread her hands,
"The only discovery was that John Hinckley's gun was actually with us. β
"That Rohm RG-14 that assassinated Reagan!?"
Because she once served in the presidential secret service, Kate knew very well about the Hinckley incident. Because of this, she was even more surprised,
"Why is that gun with us, if not in the hands of the presidential secret service, it should be on the HSD's side, right?"
It is said that at the time of the investigation, the FBI's top brass felt that Hinckley had a mastermind behind him. And the main messenger is likely to have something to do with Hollywood, so the relevant evidence was packaged and sent to the Los Angeles area, and it was ......"
"Well, the suspicion is reasonable. β
As a good agent, Kate also doesn't believe much in Hinckley's confession -
To assassinate the president because he likes Jodie Foster is too exaggerated even if he is a mental patient.
Especially, such a pit was successful.
If it weren't for Reagan's fate, someone else might have led the United States to win the Cold War.
According to the FBI's logic, it is reasonable that there is a mastermind behind this.
And Hollywood, where radicals and leftists gather, is obviously very suspicious, not to mention that Hinckley spent some time in Hollywood before committing the crime.
In particular, Reagan was still a Republican, a typical rightist......
"But why didn't you recover the evidence?"
Kate still didn't understand.
"I don't know. I guess it's missing!"
Diana guessed,
"Actually, we can know about this because of Hollywood. β
"What do you mean?"
"There was a director who wanted to make a film about the Hinckley affair, and he followed the clues to find us, and we found the gun. β
Diana looked happy,
"In a few years, it's going to be a relic. β
Kate's attention is elsewhere:
"What's the director's name?"
"Charlotte Booth. β
