Olivia stood in front of the screens studying them, the victims photos, her school ID, and all the details flashed on the screen. "Olivia?"

She turned to see Kathleen coming through the door. "Hey, sweetie. How are you?"

"Good, Where's Dad? He asked me if I could come in?"

"He's in the restroom." Kathleen looked beyond Olivia, and saw the photo of Piper on the board.

"Oh my God, Piper." Elliot came in and saw Olivia next to Kathleen as she collapsed from shock. Elliot rushed to her side and he and Olivia helped her into Elliot's chair.

"What happened?" he asked Olivia

"She saw the picture of Piper and fainted." Olivia got a cold wet paper towel, and put it on Kathleen's head.

Kathleen soon woke up, and hugged her dad as she cried. "Baby, what is it?"

"Piper McGee, she's my best friend" he let her cry, and Olivia simply put her hand over her mouth. She put her other hand over Elliot's in consolation.

"I was going to meet up with her a couple days ago, when she didn't meet me, I was upset, and thought she was standing me up." Olivia put a hand on Kathleen's, letting her continue. "She then called me, and said that she had to cancel, one of her friends needed her."



"Did she tell you who this friend was?" Olivia asked lightly.

"No, she didn't tell me anything." Kathleen shook her head.

"Alright, that's ok." Elliot looked at her, and she nodded leaving and letting Father and Daughter console each other. Olivia joined Cragen in his office side of the two-way mirror. "That's upsetting for her. Her best friend dying." Cragan nodded and looked back through the window.

Olivia and Elliot took down everything Kathleen knew about Piper and her family. Piper's boyfriends, Friends, and any other detail that might help in their investigations. After about an hour, Elliot walked Kathleen out and sent her home. Olivia grabbed hers and Elliot's coats and met him downstairs to go and talk to Piper's parents.

The front door to a single family home in Queens, opened to reveal an elderly lady. "Yes?"

"I'm Detective Benson and this is my partner Detective Stabler, We are with Manhattan Special Victims, can we come in?" The lady nodded and led them to the sitting room, where her husband joined her. "There is no easy way for me to say this to you, Mr. and Mrs. McGee, but we found your daughter this morning." Mrs. McGee gasped lightly, "She was raped and murdered, I am so sorry." Mrs. McGee buried her face in her husbands side and her husband looked at the detectives sitting across from them.

"Do you know who did this?" he asked

"No, we don't but that's why we are here," Elliot answered for Olivia, "I know this is hard, but to find your daughters killer, we need to ask you a few questions." The husband nodded to let him continue, "Has your daughter changed in the past six months?"

"Changed how?" he asked politely.

"Clothes, school work, friends, attitude?"

"No"

"Ok, any friends that you didn't approve of, that you felt had a bad influence on her?" Olivia asked lightly

"Her boyfriend, we hated him, but we didn't say anything, because she loved him."

"Do you have a name?"

"Jared Hawes." Elliot nodded then Olivia looked at the parents and stood.

"Thank you for your time and again I am so sorry for your loss."

"Jared Hawes, 20, he has a small rap sheet, for assault. Neighbor called police and when his mother answered, she had a black eye, and he admitted to it and got 5 years probation." Olivia said when she tacked up his photo to the board. "He works at Shriller Construction in Brooklyn."

Cragan looked at his detectives, and nodded. Olivia leaned into Elliot's embrace and Munch, Lake, and Fin, all gathered around. "Ok, well it's 7:30, let's go home, we will pick back up tomorrow, alright?" it wasn't a question but 

everyone began to nod and pack up to go home.

Olivia packed quickly and waited for Elliot. They left hand in hand.
