A/N: Hey everyone ! Hope the New Year is starting out well for you all. I'm finally getting back to my writing again. Sorry that it takes me a bit. Things have been going on, and I've also had some medical issues that i had to get straigtened. Things are going better now. But i've missed writing you all and myself. This story, has brought me joy to write, and i'm glad your all still with me, as I continue to pursue my writing dreams and adventures :)
Over the next month things slowly got back to a semi normal state. The unit was back to going out on their calls, picking up perps, and interviewing the victims. And going to the trials, when they were asked to be there.
After one particular trial, it was in the afternoon, when Olivia was setting at her desk, and Elliot was going over paper with Munch, since Fin was doing an assignment for Cragen.
She opened up a folder that was laying in her stack of incoming papers, she had received earlier that morning. When she opened folder, she let out a small gasp, and started to quickly read over the contents of the papers.
The documents were on an old boyfriend of hers, well he had proclaimed that he was her boyfriend anyway, but she never did show him any love at all. And reading the info on the man was surprisingly shocking her to her.
When Elliot walked back over to his desk and sat down, he noticed the intensity on Olivia's face, while she was continuing to read the papers in front of her.
Not to startle her, Elliot spoke in a soft voice, and asked. "Why do you have such an intense look on your face, and what's in that document, that has you making that face?"
Olivia finally looked up at Elliot and said. "This information that I'm reading on a prison suspect, I didn't think that this person was capable of such a thing." Still shaking her head in slight disbelief.
"Who?" Elliot asked her again, hoping she wouldn't be so vague this time, when she answered him.
Sighing, she said. "My old ex-friend from High School, Chester Lake. He always proclaimed to anyone who knew me, that we were a couple, but we never were, we always were just good buds. This document says he's in prison for burglary, assault, and raping a waiter at some restaurant." Looking at Elliot with distain in her eyes.
Taking this information in, Elliot turned to his computer and typed his name in, what came up, was anything but normal. He called Olivia over to his side of the table. And when she read the info showing on the screen, she knew in her gut, that he was being framed, but by whom she didn't know.
In the info they had read from the background check, they had found that some of the information didn't match up to the creditability in the folder that she had just read. In the information on the computer, it had said that he'd shot a federal judge, and she knew that was a lie, because Chester had never liked guns.
Elliot wrote down a few things on a notepad, and he would do some digging for her later, and see what they could find out. In the meantime, Cragen came out of his office, and had a bit of a beaming looking on his face.
Munch had just looked up from his computer, where he was in one of his many wild chats about UFO's and what not, when he noticed Cragen's expression.
"What's going on, Cap?" Munch asked, and this made the rest of them look up at him, and notice he was smiling a bit.
Putting his hands in his pockets, he stayed silent. Waiting for him to say something, he just stood there, agents Gerardi and Meloni came out of his office, along with judge Petrovsky. This made the tension seem to build a little thicker. Until Agent Gerardi spoke up.
"We have been going over the paper work on Jefferies, and faxed everything over to the federal Judge, he sent us a statement back, that said Jefferies had told them everything, after they put her through an electrode lie detector test, which is more precise than a regular lie detector. Once he found out everything, along with the documents we faxed, and he had Trevor bought in as well, but in a separate room, things started being put together. They didn't need Andy's confession, since they had the recorded tape of him, and the one of Trevor. He is putting Jefferies in a federal mental pych ward, and she's not to be interacting with other's. so she will be in her on solitare confinement." Agent Gerardi told them, after hearing this, everyone was sighing in relief, for a while at least.
The moment of happiness was interrupted when Alex walked in, and holding a bundle of papers in her hand, and her brief case in the other.
"Whom, may I ask, faxed the federal Judge?" Alex asked, and stood waiting for an answer.
Agent Meloni spoke up this time, and said. "We did just a few minutes ago."
Alex then let out a sigh, and said. "I don't know exactly what federal Judge you faxed, but he's handed down a sentence of 30 years for Jefferies, and Trevor to be served back to back, and Andy gets 15, because he testified against Jefferies in the conference room." Alex folded her arms after she said this, and that's when Olivia truly felt relief, at least with Jefferies that is, now she just had to figuring things out about Chester.
What she would find, would be utterly tongue twisting, so to speak.
After they were all finished talking about Jefferies, Elliot led Olivia out of the unit later that evening, and they headed home, for some much needed tender loving care.
Elliot actually had a surprise awaiting for her, when they got there. At least for now, they could relax for the weekend.
Monday was going to be the adventure back, but it was going to a surprising one. When someone else, gets bought into the unit to work.
A/N: More Adventure to come. And more twists are coming up. Hope you all are in for somemore surprising balls to drop :)
