Profiler: Crime Scene

The police believed that Leonard's reason for committing the crime was his wife cheating on others, which was in line with Lu Yuanli and other police psychologists and case-solving experts' psychological analysis of the murderer.And the madness and tyranny he showed in the previous attempted murder case was very similar to the murderer, and he was seriously suspected to be the murderer.

In addition, the police also found that the file showed that when Leonard returned home, Jennifer was topless and having love with her lover Zuo.Lopez inferred that because of this, the murderer began to cut off the breasts and lower body of the deceased woman in the later stage.

After the police arrested Leonard, they also searched his home for a shotgun, a dagger and a membership card for the local hunting association.

When Leonard's wife, Jennifer, and their three children testified, they repeatedly accused Leonard of serious alcoholism, gambling, and when he was drunk or lost money, he would come home and beat them, mother and child.Jennifer burst into tears, if not, she would not have cheated.

His colleagues in the freight company proved that because of work, Leonard would carry guns and daggers for self-defense, had received training in firearms and boxing, and was in good shape.

People from the hunting association also testified that Leonard had good marksmanship and had won prizes in hunting ducks.

The police interrogated Leonard for more than ten hours. Although Leonard repeatedly stated that although he had a criminal record, he had nothing to do with this case, the police quickly submitted the materials to the court and prepared to request an immediate trial.

"Lopez."

After Lu Yuanli read all of Leonard's files, he said, "Isn't it too hasty to start the trial? Although I can't be sure, I don't think Leonard will be the murderer. First, his previous case, It is a passionate murder made on impulse. To be honest, after working hard, I came home to find that my wife was having sex with someone. This is a great stimulus to a man. Many people who are usually gentle and gentle have such encounters. They will also act in a rage. This is not the same as a murderer who has planned and targeted killing.

Second, Leonard's family situation is not very well off.When he committed the crime, even in such an angry situation, he took the victim's wallet and old mobile phone.This shows that he is very greedy for money.Among the previous victims, there were more than two pairs, all of whom were rich, especially Justin, who had a lot of property on his body but had no losses, which was not consistent at all.

Third, he works as a long-distance driver with irregular working hours, and it seems difficult to kill on multiple Fridays.I usually either drink or gamble, as many people in taverns and casinos can confirm.

Even his wife and children, who hated him so much, didn't think he could be the murderer of the serial murders, because he either came back to beat them, or was drinking and gambling.

Fourth, he has three grown children, and he is 50 years old this year. He also has a fatty liver caused by long-term alcoholism, and his body is not as good as before.How did he catch up to and kill a strong 28-year-old triathlete in near-hand-to-hand combat with a knife?Still in the mountain forest environment, close to cross-country venues, where the athlete is better at.

Fifth, his figure is ordinary, only about 172 meters, which is inconsistent with previous speculation.At this height, it is almost impossible to form a overlooking angle, avoid the car door, and directly shoot the same-sex couple sitting in the overbearing Toyota car.

Sixth, when one of the murders happened, he had strong time to prove that he was contacted by the bartender and many people in the tavern where he drank.With so many doubts, I don't think it's appropriate to hold a trial now. "

"professor."

Lopez said: "There are indeed some doubts about this person, but I think it can also be explained. First of all, the first crimes, of course, are mostly crimes of passion, and they are relatively simple and rude because there is no plan. But, wait After the murderer calms down, after experiencing the bloodthirsty pleasure, it is difficult to stop like a dog that has bitten a person.

Regarding the second point, Leonard may think that if an adulterer cheats on his wife, he has the right to take away the person's property, perhaps as a kind of compensation, and other people have nothing to do with him.As for the physical aspect, it's hard to say.After all, criminals have guns in their hands, and ordinary people have no professional training. It is doubtful whether they can perform at their usual level when they are in a panic after witnessing the tragic death of their wives.

As for the murderer's height, at present, it was only a guess.The murderer committed the crime in an outdoor environment, which is likely to be affected by the terrain.Moreover, short people, both men and women, abound in large shoes.This point is difficult to prove.This Leonard, who happened to be wearing a size 45 shoe, was consistent with the findings at the crime scene. "

"If you insist,"

Lu Yuanli said, "That's fine. But I don't think the court will accept your allegations."

Sure enough, after carefully reviewing the materials submitted by the police, Justice Jacob said that firstly, no murder weapon was found, and secondly, there were many doubtful points in the evidence.For example, at the time of the crime, Leonard had at least two time witnesses to prove his alibi, one of which was very powerful.Therefore, it is temporarily impossible to make a decision to open a trial. Jacob asked the police to give more strong evidence as soon as possible, otherwise he would withdraw the charges.

Under the police's intensified investigation, three new witnesses were quickly added.

The first was Pirlo, a town resident, who claimed to have witnessed the first crime scene, where the little girl was the survivor. He heard the sound, and when he came out to check the cellar of his home, he saw Leonard driving away.

The second, Edith, the barmaid, testified that she heard Reynard say he was a member of the Adventist Church multiple times.

The third is a highway maintenance officer. He said that he saw Leonard's car at the scene of the crime in August 15.

After reading the materials, Lu Yuanli felt a headache and said, "These supplementary witnesses you found are really... marginal."

"Professor Lu!"

Lopez aired: "The suspect has religious beliefs and may come from a cult. The details of the crime are like some religious rituals. Isn't that what you said?!"

"and then?"

Lu Yuanli said: "There are nearly [-] cults in M, with hundreds of thousands of believers. What does this prove?!"

"Professor, look!"

Joseph rushed in and said, "Stop arguing, there are new discoveries!"

When Lu Yuanli opened it, he suddenly found that the document stated that one of the female victims, that is, Caroline, who was still breathless when the rescuers arrived at the scene, was one of the investigators of the special case team. cousin.

"So that's how it is." Lu Yuanli said, "Everything should be over."

As soon as he walked into the meeting hall, Jiao Yang found that there were a lot of people here today, and the staff was very neat.In addition to Director Jack, three or four deputy directors were there.Jiao Yang felt something unusual.

"Gentlemen,"

Lu Yuanli immediately walked into the conference hall and said loudly, ""I have two news, one good news and one bad news.Which do you want to hear first?

Joseph said: "Professor, I am an optimistic person, let's listen to the good news first."

"Very good," Lu Yuanli said, "The good news is that after everyone's unremitting efforts, we have found the couple killer 'Black Friday'."

Joseph asked, "What about the bad news?"

Lu Yuanli looked around and said, "Unfortunately, he is among us."

"OH, NO!"

There was a burst of exclamation in the hall.There are many people sitting here, all members of the task force for the "Black Friday" case.The familiar investigators looked at each other, and some couldn't help but start to look at the people who didn't have much contact with each other.

"This is impossible!"

Of course, there are also many people who can't believe it.A tall white policeman stood up and questioned Lu Yuanli: "People here are working day and night to solve the case, what evidence do you have to say that?!"

"Everyone, be safe and don't be impatient." Lu Yuanli said, "I won't talk about the previous analysis, but I will add two points, things that you may not be clear about, to prove this point.

First, one of the female victims, Caroline, was still alive when the rescue arrived.Sheriff Lopez deliberately announced some misleading information to the media.As a result, Caroline's attending doctor immediately received an anonymous harassing phone call claiming to be a family member of the deceased.what does that mean?The murderer can find out the doctor's personal information immediately.

In the second, last pair of deceased persons, a driver's license was found in the driver's seat of the deceased's car.What does this mean?Because of the mass media reports and the government's constant warnings, people in George Town did not stay outside at night, and it became more and more difficult for the murderer to find a suitable target.Therefore, the crazy murderer may not hesitate to expose and use his true identity-the policeman.Drive the police car to directly stop the victim and ask them to show their ID.And took the opportunity to shoot and kill the victims when they were unsuspecting. "

There was another commotion in the hall. The second point is actually known to many people present.But the first point, except for Lu Yuanli, Joseph and others, in order to achieve the effect, most members of the task force did not know that it was Lopez's deliberate misleading.

"Okay, let's get started." Lu Yuanli said, "Officer Hale, can you explain that in this series of cases, the fourth case, that is, the night when the second witness Barbara appeared, You were not on duty, but you appeared at the scene of the crime immediately?"

Being named at this time is not a good thing.At this time, everyone's eyes were focused on him, and some people were pointing and whispering.Hale cleared his throat, stood up, and said calmly, "That day, I happened to pass by the scene and thought there was a car accident, so I wanted to go and see if there was anything I needed help with."
