271 Is this the case a test for a trainee agent?
Jimmy and Agent Tolsten have lunch together in the neighborhood before parting ways, and Jimmy goes to the hotel to rest. Although Hughes asked him to go to Director Lambert today, there was no time set, so why go so early, let's get some sleep and rest before going.
At about 2 o'clock in the afternoon, Jimmy finished his lunch break and left for the FBI office in Dallas, fortunately, Jimmy's rented car has not been returned, if he returns the car early this morning, Jimmy will be in big trouble.
Strictly speaking, the FBI cross-office office is allowed, but usually no one does this, because the offices have their own personnel, unless the manpower is insufficient, or the relevant industry lacks experts, it is generally rare to transfer people across regions, and more options are to contact the headquarters or the FBI Institute directly, and then the FBI laboratory, which is also in Kuantico, as mentioned before.
This time, Jimmy was lost in the lake for a long time at noon, and he didn't think about what Hughes wanted to do, and for other office support, he must give priority to senior agents, and let himself, a trainee agent who has only been working for more than a month, go to other offices to support, isn't he afraid of losing the face of the Manhattan office?
Arriving at the Dallas office, Jimmy cleared the security with his FBI credential, entered the building, and after communicating with the front desk, he came to the supervisor's office on the top floor.
Jimmy knocked on the door to the director's office, "Come in." Jimmy took off his hat and tucked it under his left arm, opened the door and walked in, a middle-aged white Mediterranean man in a white shirt sitting behind his desk.
Jimmy: "Sir, I'm Jimmy Young, an agent in the Manhattan office, and Manhattan Director Hughes asked me to report to you."
Lambert: "Oh, Jimmy, it's coming quickly, please take a seat."
Jimmy stepped over to his desk and sat upright in his chair.
Lambert looked at Jimmy and raised his right eyebrow, "Tell me, did you offend Hughes?"
Jimmy: "No, sir, I'm just in Dallas when I'm on vacation, closest to here."
Lambert waved his hand: "Don't be so serious, there's more time, just talk." Are you visiting Dallas for tourism? Look at you, well, you look very Texan, especially the hat."
Jimmy: "Yes, sir, I'm here to Dallas mainly for vacation and to meet old friends."
Lambert: "Oh, what friend? Is it nearby?"
Jimmy: "DEA's peers have worked together before, and they're just friends. Sir, Hughes asked me to report to you, saying that there is a eucalyptus that I need to help deal with, what kind of eucalyptus is it?"
Jimmy is a little unbearable, Lambert and Hughes are completely two styles, Lambert is more like an old white man in the south, as long as he looks pleasing to the eye, he is very enthusiastic and possessed, while Hughes is more like the county sheriff James, usually pays attention to the image and doesn't talk much, but always feels that they have something in their hearts.
Relatively speaking, Jimmy is actually more accustomed to James and Hughes's style, maybe he has some social phobia, Jimmy has not crossed paths with too many old white men in Little Rock before.
Lambert has obviously seen a lot of people, and when he saw Jimmy's performance, he probably understood, "Oh, you said eucalyptus, this is not in a hurry, you find a place to live first, there is more time, don't be in a hurry to get eucalyptus today."
….
Lambert pressed the intercom, "Jesse, come in."
Soon a middle-aged woman came in from outside, white, red-haired, and looked not young, estimated to be at least 40 years old. "What's the matter, Lambert?"
[Recommended,@
Office, well, just this office location, Jessica's level will not be low.
"Sit." Jessica sat down at her desk, and Jimmy sat across from her.
Jessica was operating the computer and asked, "Jimmy, how long are you going to stay this time?"
Jimmy shook his head, "It's not clear yet, I received a call from our supervisor today asking me to report to Director Lambert, saying that there is a eucalyptus to deal with, but I haven't seen what it is until now."
Jessica: "Okay, I see, let's go to the hotel next door." So, did you drive here?"
Jimmy: "Rented."
Jessica: "A car, is there anything else you need to prepare?"
Jimmy continued to shake his head, "I don't know exactly what it is, I'm not sure yet."
Jessica nodded, she registered on the computer, took out a card from the drawer under the desk and handed it to Jimmy, and then took Jimmy downstairs, first received a car key from another department, and then arranged for another person to take Jimmy to the basement to pick up the car, and to check in at a hotel about 100 meters next to it.
Jimmy finished the formalities, the person who brought him left, he didn't go to the room, but went out with the room card, walked back to the FBI building parking lot, first drove the rented car to the original hotel to get the luggage, checked out, and then returned the car, took a taxi back to the hotel booked by the fbi, Jimmy was temporarily settled.
In other words, Jimmy's treatment seems a little wrong, an access card for entry and exit, a public black Victoria Crown, and a hotel that looks at least 3 stars, is the FBI funding in Dallas so sufficient? And Jimmy doesn't know when he's leaving, shouldn't it be a short-term rental apartment?
Jimmy also took a look at the people in the FBI building today, most of them are wearing suits, but there are also a lot of people who are casual clothes, it seems that Jimmy is not particularly abrupt in his clothes, if there are no special requirements, it seems that there is no need to buy a suit, and then prepare it when necessary.
After a night's rest, the next day, Jimmy came to the Dallas office early in the morning, or the Lambert office on the top floor, this time Lambert did not shirk the delay, but took three files directly from the table and handed them to Jimmy, asking him to go to the next conference room to see for himself.
Jimmy came to the conference room and opened the file, these three files were together, three murders and corpses, and the places where the bodies were thrown were not far away, all next to Thunder Lake.
….
There is a reason why the eucalyptus has been shelved, the three corpses that have been put together are all mutilated, the most important head and hand have not been found, none of the three have been found, because the DNA library is not perfect, there is no way to judge the identity based on the DNA extraction of the mutilated limbs, and there are no hands, not even fingerprints, so they can only be shelved and given up.
Jimmy hadn't read all the information yet, but he thought there was something wrong with it, who was wrong with handing it over to a trainee agent from Manhattan?
Jimmy put the file down and began to wonder why? Is this to put on little shoes for yourself? Hughes's idea or Lambert's? What purpose? Kick yourself out of the FBI?
Jimmy thought about it for a moment, and continued to pick up the file to read it, and he placed the three files side by side on the table, and there was an interval between the three corpse fragments.
The first occurred in June 1999, when two hikers found a leg while camping near Lake Thunder, and after they called the police, the police found some other wreckage in the surrounding area, but because the body was incomplete and there were no documents, it was impossible to determine the identity, so the eucalyptus had to be temporarily sealed.
The second was discovered in December 2000 in the northeastern part of Lake Lei, and in March 2001 in the woods of a peninsula in the middle of Lake Leihu.
Although the wreckage was cut in different ways, they had one thing in common, the head and hands were not found, and the local police had searched the surroundings very carefully, and were very sure that no clues were missed.
The dossier contains photographs of the wreckage when it was found, and numbers are marked on the map for use
Indicating the location of the discovery of the wreckage, Jimmy is very unfamiliar with the map of Texas, and will be fascinated by just looking at the dossier.
Jimmy looked up, there were very few people on the top floor, and there should be no problem with the file in the conference room. He got up and left the conference room and went to Jessica's office.
Jimmy: "Jessica, I need your help."
Jessica: "Please."
Jimmy: "I need a map of Thunder Lake, as well as markings of the surrounding settlements and roads. Be as detailed as possible."
Jessica thought for a moment and nodded, "I'll give it to you later."
Jimmy: "Thanks, I'm in the room next to Lambert." With that, Jimmy turned and left Jessica's office.
Ten minutes later, Jessica arrived in the conference room with a few printed maps.
Jessica: "This is a satellite photo of Thunder Lake, and this is an enlarged version of the map."
Jimmy: "Thank you."
Jimmy picked up a pen on the conference room table and began to mark the map, carefully checking the location of the wreckage found on the three files, because Thunder Lake is not a regular circular or oval lake, but a relatively regular lake in the south, and the north is divided into spikes by the ground that protrudes into the lake, so it is not so easy to connect the marked places.
Jimmy looked at the map and the file, and always felt that something was missing, time, place, people, physical evidence, suspects, motives for doing eucalyptus, and methods of doing eucalyptus, and now there seem to be a lot of things in the file, that is, the suspect and the motive for doing eucalyptus are completely blank, that is to say, there have been three cases of corpse fragmentation in a row, and the most recent one has been more than a year, and no relevant suspects have been found until now?
….
Jimmy put the file in order, closed it, and knocked on Lambert's door.
Jimmy: "Director Lambert, I'd like to ask, is that all these three files?" Is there any other information?"
Lambert: "What did you find?"
Jimmy: "There aren't any suspects in the file, not even the suspects who are inferred, hasn't anyone taken care of these eucalyptus before?"
Lambert looked at Jimmy expressionlessly, did not speak, Jimmy was not a newcomer to the new job, he also looked at Lambert, waiting for his reply.
Lambert looked at Jimmy and suddenly laughed, he beckoned, "Give me the file."
Jimmy handed it to Lambert, in addition to the original three files, there were also several maps given by Jessica, Lambert picked up the map and looked at the points marked by Jimmy on it, as well as the lines that Jimmy drew on it, and nodded, "These lines are the lines you speculated on the corpse, right?"
Jimmy nodded, "As you can see from the satellite map, there are no residents around the dumping site, and the road conditions are not ideal, so I speculate that the dumping route should start from the shore of the lake, which means that the suspect landed on the shore of the lake by boat." But there is too little information, and the lake is too big to deduce where the suspect started to enter the lake, and the satellite photos do not mark the small piers in the lake."
Lambert looked at his watch, it had been two hours since he handed Jimmy's file, and it was almost noon, but it was already good to be able to deduce the route from this information alone.
Lambert: "It's nice to have a conclusion, but your question is easy to answer, not because there is a lack of information, but because the three cases have been resolved, and the content of the suspects has just been removed from the file."
After Lambert finished speaking, he put Jimmy's map in the file and turned to put it back on the bookshelf behind him. Jimmy was a little speechless, what is this going on? He really thought that he was going to detect these three corpses by himself, and it took more than two hours for brain cells to investigate himself?
Jimmy: "Director Lambert, who the hell is the suspect?"
Lambert: "A psychoactive cult madman, who was found in a shootout and the suspect was killed, and the heads and arms of three people were found in the basement, and he placed them on an altar as a tribute, and later through DNA identification, three bodies were matched, and their families were notified. The pieces are over."
Jimmy
"How did you find him?" I can't guess this clue at all."
Lambert: "As luck would have it, there was a guy who was fishing in the lake, and he threatened him, and the local police went to his house after they called the police, and after that, as I said, everything went well. This eucalyptus is a lot of luck a lot of the time, but you guessed it right, he does live south of the Thunder River, and we also found the boat he was transporting after investigating, and the bloodstains on it were confirmed."
Jimmy: "Okay, but I don't understand, why are you showing me this eucalyptus?"
Lambert: "Just do a preliminary assessment, and the eucalyptus below is really assigned to you to deal with." Lambert handed Jimmy another clip.
Lambert: "You will handle this eucalyptus alone, and I will not assign other agents to assist you throughout the process, but if you need to inquire about the relevant information, you can go to the second floor to find Agent Ray Hope."
Jimmy took the file, said goodbye to Lambert, returned to the conference room next to it, and began to check the file, only looking at the front, Jimmy was a bit of a Muggle, this eucalyptus seemed, maybe, maybe a little troublesome.
"A tourist found a cave on a barren hill in the Great Bend National Park, and found 6 bodies in the cave, which had been decomposed and weathered, and the forensic identification of the time of death was about 3-4 years old, because the bodies were not buried, but only placed in the cave, so some of the corpses showed signs of being eaten by animals, and the corpses were mutilated. There were obvious traces of gunfire in the cave, dozens of bullet holes were found in the cave wall, and no weapons were found at the scene.
The case was submitted by the Park Police and a preliminary on-site investigation was conducted by the local police."
