Part Three

"How's he holdin' up?" Came the voice of Detective Odefin Truola from behind a small desk in the south end of the room.

"I haven't talked to him in about an hour. I think he's still at the Hospital with Kathy. I just can't believe this happened." Olivia said, making her way to his desk.

"Well, I was reviewing over the statement and…"

"What? Well, it seems like an awful lot of people are taking up my case." Olivia snapped back at him. All night policemen and other detectives were approaching her with sorry's and helpful hands. It wasn't rude of them, but it did bother her.

"Olivia. We all care about Elliot. And we wanna find this guy as much as you do." With that, Olivia backed off. She knew people cared and this case was very huge. Not only was it a murder/rape, there were several men involved. And Olivia knew two heads were better than one.

"Well, I was over at the house and I noticed a few things."

"Like What?" Asked a very interested Fin.

"Like, there's nothing that gives us an idea that someone had broken in. We found a print on the window but we're guessing it's going to belong to Kathy or one of the girls."

"Sounds like they knew what they were doing."

"Olivia. Fin." Came the hasty voice of Captain Cragen. "Crime Lab said they found something. Head over."

"We're on it." Fin yelled back as Olivia hesitantly followed after him.

A few minutes later they arrived to Melinda's lab section.

"We heard you found something." Olivia said approaching her microscope rather eager to hear the news. Melinda turned to them, holding up a piece of paper.

"Yeah." She said with a followed pause as if the information she had would solve everything. "A hair. And guess who it leads us to?"

"Who?" Fin asked curiously.

"Our latest warehouse rape victim. I ran the DNA and she came up as Rita Patrick. 17 year old with a record. Apparently she's been involved in some gang activity from a young age." And with that information, Olivia knew that they were dealing with some very tricky perpetrators.

"Is she still at the hospital?" Olivia asked, as if Melinda had the answers.

"I called up immediately after I found out. They said she checked herself out an hour ago."

"Thanks." She yelled back as she ran from the room and down the hall, Fin racing behind her.

"Were are we goin?" he asked her, catching his breathe.

"To the Hospital."
