044 Again
To add that, in the United States, the coroner and the medical examiner have the same role, both investigating the cause and manner of death and signing the death certificate, but their qualifications are different.
Coroners belong to the official system inherited from medieval England, coroners are appointed by the government or elected by the local government, and do not require a medical degree, but in the United States, there are already quite a few coroners who are forensic pathologists and pursue professionalism.
Forensic medicine is generally appointed by the government as forensic pathology experts, and in some places, doctors recommended by local medical institutions are directly appointed to serve as doctors, and a medical degree is required.
Different states have different definitions of the coroner system and the forensic system, Arkansas is a conservative state and retains the coroner system, but the vast majority of states have replaced the coroner system with the forensic system.
In addition, another point is related to the population, for the small population area, professional forensic doctors are very scarce, they can only establish a coroner system, and then let the hospital doctor also serve as the coroner, which is actually very flexible.
The next day, Jimmy and Carg arrived at the coroner's office together, Dr. Kevin had already left, and he had done an autopsy and submitted the autopsy report since he returned yesterday.
According to Dr. Kevin's report, the deceased was aged 45-48 years old, the fatal wound was a gunshot wound to the back of the head, there were no injuries elsewhere on the body, the nails were intact, and the forehead injury was a percussion wound, presumably caused by falling to the ground after being shot.
With such a simple report, there is basically nothing to trace.
Cag took Jimmy out of the body and brought his belongings with him, no wallet, no ID, no way to confirm the identity of the deceased, this is another unsolved case.
The body was currently parked in the morgue, and the two men were not interested in seeing it, so they took a copy of the autopsy report back to the police station.
Jimmy was on the night shift last night, and this morning's case looked like a headless case, and he didn't bother to work overtime, so he went home to rest and prostitute two hours of overtime for nothing.
This kind of headless case, there is no way to do it, you can only keep the information, wait for when there will be other discoveries later, and then do the merger of cases, the county police department has a total of so many people, and there is no way to put experience into every case to deal with.
For Jimmy, it's not too exciting, after all, he has already killed a person with his own hands, and finding the corpse is not so exciting that he can't sleep.
The only pity is that yesterday I didn't directly use my ability to try to find the other party's location when I heard the gunshot, and when the process was over, the person ran away.
And yesterday I also discovered the shortcomings of the mind-eye ability, that is, the distance is too close, and his observation yesterday can basically only be maintained in the range of about 10 meters, I don't know if it will increase in the future. And it seems that there is only a 180-degree range in front of him, and he still needs to turn his head to increase the picture coverage when he probes around yesterday.
At night, he returned to the police station on duty, and during the day, the county police department had already contacted the Little Rock police department, and if there was a missing person, he would come to confirm whether the body was missing, and the others could not be done for the time being, so Jimmy did not stay at the police station, and set off on patrol directly with equipment.
At 10 o'clock, the dispatch center informed Jimmy that there were LRPD officers near his patrol area who asked for support, and there was an exchange of fire, and Jimmy directly pulled the siren and drove over, this kind of support is relatively rare, because Jimmy's assigned patrol area is outside the western suburbs of Little Rock, so there will occasionally be support operations, and the patrol positions of several other county police are a little farther out, and this kind of thing can rarely be encountered.
Arriving at his destination, Jimmy parked the police car outside, and the two LRPD police cars were already in place.
The city police gave a general account of the situation, and there was only one old lady in the family, and at about half past nine, a man ran to her house, broke down the door and robbed her.
The old lady used the excuse of taking jewelry, then went upstairs, hid in the bedroom bathroom, locked the door and called the police, and now the suspect is still in the room, and it is not clear whether the old man has been taken hostage.
The suspect had a pistol, and when the LRPD people arrived at the scene, the suspect fired a shot at the police car from the window on the second floor, and it was not clear whether it was his own gun or the old lady's gun, and the call to the police had been hung up, and the call back could not be reached.
The city police divided one person to go to the back of the house to prevent the suspect from escaping, there were 2 policemen in front, plus Jimmy, the total police force was 4, and other support had not yet arrived.
Jimmy understood the circumstances of the case, so he pulled out his pistol, walked around to the side of the house from the side, and checked through the window, the suspect was not on the first floor, he leaned against the wall and activated the mind eye ability, and the black and gray lines began to outline the space in the house in his mind, and then he found two human figures, one was at the corner of the stairs, and the other was in a small room on the second floor, sitting on the ground with his body crooked against the wall, but there was no movement.
The black shadow on the second floor should be the one who called the police, and it seems that there is a certain possibility that she has been killed. The figure at the corner of the stairs should be a suspect with a gun.
Jimmy gestured to the city police with a flashlight, then raised his hand and pointed to himself, and then made the direction of entering the house, the police gestures are not all universal, Jimmy can only hope that they can roughly understand what they are going to do next, which is to let them cover and go in by themselves.
Jimmy put the pistol back in holster, pulled out the M686 from his right leg, and moved his waist to the side of the front door, and from the side of the door he used a wooden stick he had just picked up to push the door open, which had been broken by the suspect when he broke in, and was now only concealed.
Jimmy's topographical map was still there, and he showed his head at the doorway to observe that the section from the doorway to the stairs was unobstructed, consistent with the terrain in his mind, and the suspect was on the corner near the upstairs halfway there, and he couldn't see his location, but Jimmy was sure he was there.
Jimmy squatted, then took a sharp step into the room, stepped through the door into the side living room, and quickly ducked behind the couch. The living room was at right angles to the stairs, and the suspect could only see someone coming in, but he didn't have time to shoot.
The suspect didn't expect the police to enter the house like this, and under normal circumstances, the police should have shouted at him on both sides of the door. Jimmy's sudden movements completely disrupted the suspect's previous plans, and he could only descend a little from the corner of the stairs to try to confirm where the police officers who entered the house were.
The suspect moved down slightly, the muzzle of the gun in his hand moving along the visual tangent of the staircase, little by little to confirm that the area in the living room was safe. When it comes to the blind spot, the suspect can only show a little body and head to see the rest of the place, Jimmy can see all the suspect's movements in his mind, the moment he shows his head, Jimmy shoots, "bang", a shot, the suspect falls to the ground and falls down the stairs.
