• His presence has always comforted me even when we first started working together. “I love you, but you know that we can’t show affection at work.” I said pushing away and slipping my hand into his tan, worn hands. “Ok anyways back to work.” He said quickly pulling his hand out from mine and sat gazing at the pictures. “So you think it’s possibly that Hannah is the person we found in the woods?” I said uneasily while I tried to figure out why someone would do this to a girl say 13 years old. “Yes I’m positive on that. The jawbone structures are the same. I can’t tell much from the face since….well you know.” He said obviously trying not to say it so he wouldn’t upset me.

    “It’s ok I’m fine.” I said as I couldn’t stop thinking about the picture of the girl’s mutilated body. “I just don’t understand how someone can bound and rape a young girl and then mutilate her body. It’s sick and pathetic and as soon as we catch them I swear on my life I will do whatever it takes to convince the jury that they did this heinous crime.” I said gritting my teeth as I knew this case was going to be harder than I had expected.
