Chapter 95 The cunning femme fatale
Rossi held up a small piece of paper in the evidence bag and showed it to everyone. It was filled with dense numbers.
"Rosalind and her followers created a bunch of false clues to try to lead us into misunderstandings. Let me start with the search of the prison."
"I knew Rosalind had a reading habit, so after searching her cell, I asked FBI agents to check all the books she had borrowed in the past six months, and then I found this picture in the middle of a novel. Note."
Superintendent Gray took the evidence bag and took a look: "It's a very simple substitution code. The number written in the corner should be the number of pages in the book, and the number below is the number of lines."
Rossi nodded: "Yes, the detective easily deciphered the code at the scene. This is a name, Brian Coleman."
John raised his hand in confusion: "But the guy who was shot dead on the spot by Jack before was named Caleb White. The driver's license he carried with him was named after him."
Rossi signaled him to calm down: "Yes, this is the first trap set by Rosalind. We raided Brian Coleman's residence. His walls were covered with photos of the victims, but the joint The Bureau's files show that this person has been missing for a long time, if we follow this clue and pursue it."
At this time, Superintendent Gray's cell phone beeped twice. He took it out and looked at it, and said in a deep voice: "The forensic team just discovered a body that was buried recently near the site of the old zoo. The fingerprint identification is that of Brian. Coleman.”
Everyone here was talking. It was obvious that Brian Coleman was just an unlucky scapegoat. If the clues discovered by Dr. Breonna's team had not led to the old zoo, everyone might still be busy searching for Brian Cole in the city. Man.
"Then comes the second trap." Rossi looked at Tim and others.
"The LAPD found out about the guy running the underground black market in the women's prison - Benjamin Lacey, a mid-level gang leader. He gave the second name, Jerry Javier. Correctional center files show that he was arrested in 2017 Years ago, I worked as a guard for several months in the women’s prison where Rosalind was located.”
Tim looked unhappy, but still continued: "We and the SWAT team raided Jerry Harwell's residence, and found that this guy was a cripple who could only move one leg."
"He did work as a prison guard, but as early as five years ago, he was stabbed by a prisoner because of a prison riot, and his lower body was almost paralyzed. According to his confession, his identity was stolen three years ago, and his personal credit record was messed up. Chaos.”
Rossi looked back and pointed at the picture of Caleb White on the whiteboard.
"The FBI retrieved Jerry Harwell's credit card records for the past two years and discovered that the card had been used to purchase a small diesel generator, consistent with the model found in the old zoo."
Superintendent Gray made a direct summary, "It is now completely confirmed that Caleb White is Rosalind's real accomplice. Three years ago, he stole Jerry Harwell's identity and entered the women's prison as a prison guard. To get close to Rosalind."
Jack chuckled and said, "That makes sense. Rosalind is using her method of demagoguery to form the prototype of a cult. Caleb White can be regarded as her first believer. No wonder she keeps chattering. , John may be her next target."
Everyone's eyes turned to the blushing John. Angela laughed and teased: "John, you have to hold on, this beautiful snake can eat people."
Superintendent Gray was also in a good mood and looked at John: "Rosalind will be taken back to prison overnight. The deal between the District Attorney and her has been cancelled. If John still wants to talk to him, there is still a little time now."
John shook his head repeatedly, but Jack stood up and took out an evidence bag, "I'm going to meet her. Just in time, I have something here. She will be 'happy' when she sees it."
Superintendent Gray nodded to him and then announced the adjournment of the meeting: "Go back and rest quickly. Everyone has worked hard."
Everyone stood up one after another, and when passing by Jack, they all took out the FBI tracking locator and returned it to him. The case was over, and no one wanted to carry such a thing with them all the time.
"Well, there's still one left. I gave it to the news anchor at Channel 8. I'll ask her to get it back tomorrow."
Jack gathered the locator and handed it to Rosie. The old guy smiled ambiguously and patted him on the shoulder. It was obvious that he had misunderstood something. He didn't bother to explain and hurried to the detention room.
"We rescued the third victim. She is now receiving treatment in the hospital. Your follower Caleb is also dead."
Jack looked at the old woman in front of him and stated expressionlessly. He didn't want to show off to a serial female killer, but he had some other thoughts in his heart and wanted to see her one last time.
This woman had been planning carefully for so long since she was imprisoned, and she had indeed set up a complex series of traps. However, due to the intrusion of the forensic team led by Dr. Breonna, and Jack's cheating, she was passed through in a straight line, which can be considered a trap. No injustice.
But Jack vaguely remembered that this woman had more than one admirer, and later seemed to be involved in the prison break incident. However, because he had been addicted to the game for a while at the time, he only glanced at the plot explanation at Station B, and he had no impression at all.
Now that the overall situation has been decided, he just has the mentality of making a fool of himself. Anyway, it will be a year or two before this woman appears again.
By then, I would already be an FBI agent, and my skills must have improved a lot. Now that I came here to attract hatred in advance, I might be able to get an experience pack delivered to my door in the future.
After all, it would be a waste for such a heinous person to be imprisoned for a lifetime. In recent years, fewer and fewer execution cases have been carried out in California. Rosalind's background information shows that she is still quite wealthy. She also has a trust fund in her name, and there are many ways to delay it. The execution time of the death penalty.
Sure enough, Rosalind's expression was ugly. She no longer had the smiling face before, and there was a bit of gritted teeth in her voice.
“So disappointing!”
Jack felt that this was not enough, that the hatred was not stable enough, and he had to find a way to make her lose her temper.
"Your story is truly over. You will be gradually forgotten by the world and slowly rot in that small private cell."
"No!" Rosalind suddenly raised her head and put a smile on her face again.
"There is a third burial place that I have not disclosed. There are more bodies and more burial places. I can continue to make deals with the district attorney. There will always be some bureaucrat who wants to climb up the ladder and will agree. Yes, you are too young to understand this. Of course, young people always have to learn to grow up, right?"
