Chapter 577: [Serial Murder Case Spanning More Than Ten Years]
Wednesday, 10:30 a.m., Long Island, New York, a temporary borrowed office.
Pushing open the door of the office area, Luo An walked into the office with Mona, and said a little tiredly:
"Sorry, we're late."
"Good work."
Michelle immediately got up to pour coffee for the two, and Lacey walked out of the conference room on the side, seeing that Roan and Mona had a lot of dust on their bodies, which were relatively dirty, and asked suspiciously:
"What have you done here? Fell into a pit? ”
"I didn't drop the pits, but I dug a lot of them."
Mona picked up the coffee on the table and drank it down, let out a long breath, and replied:
"When we arrived at the beach yesterday afternoon, an old woman's dog had dug out a white skeleton in the grass.
Winslow and I were going to ask someone to pull the bone back for testing, and then go to the policeman's house for a visit, but Luo Ann asked someone to bring several police dogs over. ”
Hearing this, Michelle was puzzled, but Lacey thought of something, looked at Roan and asked:
"Do you suspect there are corpses on that beach?"
"Just a guess."
Luo An put down the coffee cup and said helplessly:
"But I didn't expect to make a real discovery."
From the moment he drove into the beaches of Long Island, Roan found the geography of the area to be "very advantageous."
First of all, it is a large area, about 10 kilometers long in a straight line from east to west, and secondly, it is very dense with trees and grass, and it is difficult to see what is happening inside even if you drive on the road at night.
Several nearby communities are also not very close to this beach, and it takes a bit of a long walk to walk, making it difficult to spot what is happening on the beach.
All in all, from a killer's point of view, this beach is a great place to kill and dump a corpse.
Because of this, after finding the bones of the pet dog, Roan came up with the idea of asking someone to investigate the beach thoroughly.
After listening to Ann's description, Michelle's face changed slightly, Lacey's eyelids twitched, and asked:
"So, how many more bodies did you find?"
"There are nine bodies that have just been dug up on the beach, and they have been sent to the trace examination department."
Luo An rubbed his temples, his voice was low, and his tone was a little irritable:
"In addition, a nearby resident who often comes to the area to fish said something in horror when he learned about it.
Behind the rocks on the southeast corner of the beach, the beach was sometimes washed up with some clothes and other things, and he had caught his wallet there in the past.
We suspect that there are still bodies at the bottom of the ocean in that area, and Winslow is leading someone there to investigate. ”
“……”x2
After listening to Ann's explanation, Michelle and Lacey looked at each other and were speechless.
Luo An brought himself another cup of coffee and asked:
"Where's Chenelle?"
"She's in the traces department."
Michelle replied:
"The previous Long Island police tests those bodies were very crude, resulting in confusing results and very low confidence.
We had to retrieve the bodies that were still there and have the traces department do a new autopsy. ”
“Good。”
Luo An nodded, and then asked:
"Have you gotten all the information about the victims back?"
"It's all in the conference room."
After a short break, several people walked into the conference room, and Lacey took a whiteboard, pasted 11 photos on it, and introduced:
"From the time the bodies were found, the names and ages of the eleven victims, namely:
Yili, female, 20 years old.
Cleo, female, 19 years old.
Laura, female, 25 years old.
Charles, male, 21 years old.
Selina, female, 20 years old.
James, male, 30 years old.
Kate, female, 22 years old.
Mandy, female, 26 years old.
Jerome, male, 18 years old.
Sophia, female, 22 years old.
Lan Ruisha, female, 24 years old. ”
Seeing the photo of the man on the whiteboard, Mona was slightly surprised:
"And three other men?"
"That's right.
Lacey nodded, then took photos of the bodies of the three men when they were found, and distributed them to Roan, Mona, and Michelle, explaining:
"Among the three men, the first male deceased, Charles, was wearing women's clothes at the time of his death, and his makeup and dress were also biased towards women.
As for the second deceased, James, and the third deceased, Jerome, it was normal male clothing. ”
"Forehead ......"
Looking at the photo of the first male deceased, Charles, Mona frowned and pushed it to the side, looked at Luo An, and said:
"That's 11 bodies, 11 victims.
Combined with the 9 bodies we just found, there are 20 victims on this beach? ”
"Don't forget one thing, Mona."
Luo An put down the photo in his hand, pulled the corners of his mouth, and said:
"Winslow is still busy with people on the beach, I wonder if he has a surprise over there."
“…… Fu-k! ”
The corners of Mona's mouth twitched, and she couldn't help but curse in a low voice, and Luo An then looked at Lacey and asked:
"What were the jobs and occupations of these eleven victims?"
Lacey rummaged through a folder and introduced:
"Eli, I was a physical worker when I was alive.
Cleo, Shape Worker.
Laura, shape worker.
Charles, can't be found.
Serena, shape worker.
James, I can't find it.
Kate, shape worker.
Mandy, can't be found.
Jerome, can't find it.
Sophia, shape worker.
Lan Ruisha, shape worker. ”
"There are so many people that I can't remember just the introduction."
Roan got up and stepped out of his chair, took the papers in Lacey's hand, and wrote down all the information of the eleven victims on the whiteboard under the photos.
Mona looked at Lacey suspiciously and asked:
What does the "unfound" above mean? ”
"It's literal."
Sitting on a chair at the conference table, Lacey handed Mona a folder and explained:
"There are three main reasons why it cannot be found:
First, the victim has been killed for too long, and a lot of information was not carefully investigated by the Long Island police back then, and we can't find it now.
Second, the victims are almost all alone, with few relatives or friends, and it is difficult to find out what their work is.
Third, some of the victims do have relatives and friends, but these relatives and friends are either not related to the victim and do not know what the victim did during his lifetime;
Either these relatives and friends have left New York State, or even left this world because of illness, accidents, etc., so we can't find out the relevant information. ”
"That's a ......"
Looking at the information in her hand, Mona's face was tense and she felt a toothache, and at this moment, Luo An suddenly said loudly:
"Michelle, you work hard, and then find someone to borrow one...... Borrow three whiteboards. ”
Mona and Lacey looked up at Luo Ann when they heard this, and found that on the whiteboard in front of the conference table, there were only 6 photos of the victims pasted now, plus the information written by Luo An, there was no room left on the entire whiteboard.
"I'll go."
Michelle nodded, quickly got up and left the conference room.
Looking at the dense text messages on the whiteboard, as well as the photos of the five victims who had not yet sorted out the information next to her, Mona only felt her scalp tingle, muttered for a few seconds, and suggested in a low voice:
"Ann, why don't you call Vereneth and ask her to send someone to help?"
"The call is definitely going to be made, but not right now."
Luo An shook his head, his eyes narrowed slightly at the information on the whiteboard, and said:
"I seem to have found some interesting clues."
Mona and Lacey's eyes lit up, and just as they were about to ask a question, Ann's mobile phone suddenly rang:
"I'm Roan."
"It's me, Winslow."
Hearing Winslow's voice on the other end of the phone, Mona and Lacey cheered up together, and Roan said:
"I want you to tell me the good news, like there's nothing at the bottom of the sea, and you're busy in vain."
"I hope so, too."
On the beach, Winslow looked at the items that the divers had just dragged out, smiled bitterly, and said:
"We found two bodies at the bottom of the sea."
When Mona and Lacey heard this, they immediately closed their eyes and covered their foreheads with their hands, Luo An rubbed her temples helplessly, and asked:
"How's the decomposition of the corpse? Can you roughly tell when the victim was killed? ”
Without waiting for Winslow to answer, Mona's phone suddenly rang, pressed the answer button, and found that it was Chenelle:
"Mona, it's called Roan...... No, you all need to come to the autopsy room! ”
