Chapter 806 Profile of the Murderer

Notifying Tim to find a professional sketch artist and asking the old lady to help draw a portrait of the murderer, Jack walked aside and called Rosie. It was now basically confirmed that the murderer was not a federal law enforcement officer.

Spider webs are also one of the typical symbols of prison culture. Normal people would not tattoo this thing on their necks, let alone agents from the FBI or other federal departments.

Of course, this does not mean that federal law enforcement officers do not have tattoos. Unlike the traditional Chinese concept that those with tattoos are not good people, tattoos in the U.S. military are regarded as a symbol of unity and willpower. The proportion of military personnel with tattoos exceeds half.

Many federal law enforcement officers come from the military, so tattoos are inevitable. However, there is a big difference between military tattoos and prison tattoos. Different military branches have their own characteristics, and people with a little experience can tell them apart at a glance.

After hanging up the phone, John and Angela also finished taking notes and walked towards the FBI. The sentimental old rookie still had a slightly uncomfortable expression on his face, as if he was being empathized with.

"The deceased's husband, Brian Linain, should not be a suspect. If it weren't for the fact that he left the mobile hard drive at home, the body would not have been discovered so early."

Jack took the record book he handed over and quickly flipped through it. The deceased's husband claimed that he went out at 8:30 in the morning and returned home before 11 o'clock to look for the hard drive for the meeting. As a result, he found his wife's still warm body.

The fresher the body, the more accurate the time of death will be determined. John was the first to rush to the scene and confirmed that the time of death of the deceased should not exceed 1 hour.

Jack believed that his judgment in this regard was not wrong, which meant that a simple query with the deceased's husband's company would be enough to confirm his alibi.

Coupled with the testimony of the neighbor's gossipy old lady, this basically rules out the possibility of copycat crimes.

"So the deceased's husband's sudden return home was without warning, right?" Jack continued to ask.

Angela has also been a police detective for a long time, and she easily understood why he asked this question from a police detective's perspective and gave a direct answer.

"Basically, we can rule out the possibility that an acquaintance committed the crime. According to the community manager, it had been less than two years since the Linain couple moved into this community. At that time, they were a newlywed couple who had just finished their honeymoon. They usually behaved very... Loving.

Brian Linain is the CEO of a small trading company. He has relatively free working hours. He often goes home midway and takes his wife out for lunch. "

In other words, if an acquaintance of the family committed the crime, he would definitely not choose to break into the house at this time. If the husband of the deceased came home about half an hour earlier, he might bump into him head-on.

Jack glanced at Rhett after hearing this. What Genius Encyclopedia just said was right. The murderer was indeed becoming more and more unscrupulous in his actions. Judging from his increasing frequency of committing crimes, it seemed that he lacked enough time to conduct detailed preliminary investigation and investigation. track.

At this time, Tim walked towards the crowd and pointed at the crime scene behind him. "CSI researchers have completed preliminary investigation of the scene and are preparing to send the body to the medical examiner's office. Do you want to go in and take a look?"

Jack nodded and called Rhett to walk into the apartment together.

This time the body was found in the bathroom. The two carefully avoided the yellow evidence signs with numbers on the ground. At this time, the body had been put into a body bag, and two forensic assistants were moving it onto a stretcher.

Rhett stepped forward and briefly inspected the body. The cause of death was also suffocation, and the wrapping was a plastic shower curtain torn from the top of the bathtub. The only difference from the previous three deceased was that Mary Lenane was the youngest and deadest among them. most beautiful.

"The victim this time seemed to have been violated before he died?" Reid asked in surprise after noticing something strange about the body.

The forensic doctor at the scene still had the same bald head they had seen yesterday. He curled his lips when he heard this, "I prefer to call it an unsuccessful sexual assault. I collected the ingredients of a small umbrella lubricant from the inner thigh of the deceased, but other The place was not found.”

Jack and Red looked at each other after hearing this. Murderers with physical defects are usually more ferocious, and frustration in certain aspects will further enhance their desire to kill. This further supports Red's previous statement.

In the evening, in the BAU office, the scene photos of the four victims were neatly posted in four rows on the evidence board, next to a large administrative map of the Los Angeles area.

Below the map are two sketches of the killer's front and side, as well as a close-up of a single half-spider web tattoo.

Rossi stood in front of the evidence board and thought for a long time before speaking out, "The prison tattoo on the suspect's neck shows that he is not one of our people. He has been in prison for a long time, so he has learned many sophisticated criminal techniques. This makes his figure Even though he is not a big man, he can easily subdue the victim."

"But where did he learn to imitate us? How to show his ID and how to communicate with ordinary people skillfully? He must behave exactly like us in order to succeed repeatedly without arousing suspicion from others."

Jiejie tilted her head in a cute and adorable manner, her long golden hair flowing down to one side. The beautiful girl could attract the attention of others no matter what she did.

Lying to the FBI is a felony, as is impersonating a federal agent. As long as the murderer fails once, it may arouse the suspicion of others and even call the police. However, Emily and Garcia have just looked through all the police records in the Los Angeles area, and there is no trace of anything. Discover.

Hotchner on the side turned to Emily and asked, "How are you doing with your investigation into those former serious criminals with spider web tattoos in the Los Angeles area?"

Emily's expression was a little subtle, "Garcia has found 17,000 guys who have been released on parole and have spider web tattoos on their bodies. They haven't found them yet. I have to admit that I chose a wrong direction before. "

"It seems it's time to release the profile to the LAPD and LASD. At present, we can't confirm the murderer's criteria for selecting his victims, but he must wander around the streets for tracking or investigation. I hope the patrol officers will find out." Jack He suggested helplessly.

——

"A white man in his forties, pretending to be a federal agent, using forged or stolen documents to gain the trust of a woman who was alone at home, and then taking the opportunity to commit a crime? What a son of a bitch."

In the Wilshire branch, Tim posted the FBI's fresh wanted poster with a sketch on the door of Jack's familiar large conference room, muttering in his mouth.

While greeting those familiar faces with a smile, Jack reminded, "Let guys be more vigilant. This guy is probably a serious criminal who has been in prison for a long time for violent crimes."

"How does such a guy disguise himself as a harmless person?" John said he didn't understand.

Angela fully demonstrated what she had learned in her current career as a police detective, "This may be how he survives in prison. He is good at communication, articulate, and can easily convince a stranger, just like Ted ·Same as Bundy.”

Ted Bundy was the "elite sexual murderer" that Rossi interviewed. After being arrested, he could still make a victim willingly marry him and give birth to a daughter. (Mentioned in Chapter 393)

Jack nodded in agreement, "Just like Ted Bundy, the murderer has severe antisocial personality disorder and may also suffer from 'cabinomania'."

Hearing another unfamiliar word, the studious old rookie suddenly became interested, "What is that?"

"An extreme form of 'cabin phobia,' in which the anxiety caused by being restrained or tied up will cause him to feel sexually excited as compensation for his inability to satisfy certain physical problems.

You can directly see it as an extension of suffocation sex, because the murderer's antisocial personality has become a way for him to kill. "

After hearing this explanation, John suddenly showed an expression like a frightened baby, while Angela cast a "you know it well" look at Jack.
