Smash to: Conference room- CSI Lab
Papers are spread all over the room table. WARRICK is crouched over the table, trying to make sense of the mess of papers in front of him.
SARA and NICK enter, each carrying a folder.
WARRICK (looks up): What do you know?
SARA and NICK take seats at the table
SARA (tossing her folder on the table): We got lucky and picked up some foreign DNA. Male, O neg blood. Greg's running it, but no hits so far.
NICK: I've got something interesting. (opening the folder) I think it's safe to say we've got 2 shots, right? 2 shells on the ground. (gesturing the photos) . 1 bullet in the body, and one bullet I n the ground beneath the body, directly in line with the wound tract.
SARA and WARRICK eye him interestingly.
NICK (continuing): It looks like she was shot while on the ground.
WARRICK (nodding in agreement): Robbins said she was almost dead when she was shot.
SARA (in astonishment): Then why shoot her?
WARRICK (ticking off on his fingers): Either they didn't know she was dying, they really wanted her dead, or they were trying to cover up an accident. (pause) Look.
WARRICK stabs a finger at one of the autopsy photos. SARA and NICK gather around for a better look. Camera pans from above. The photo Warrick is pointing to has the victim's chin, neck and shoulders in view. There is clearly massive bruising on her neck.
WARRICK: Someone snapped our vic's C-Rings prior to death. She was a half- hour away from dying from suffocation. Why shoot her? Our killer is stupid, thorough, or careless.
NICK: Or he's being nice. Death by suffocation is a lot more painful then death by GSW.
SARA: Yeah, but C-rings just don't snap. The force must have been pretty strong. (pause) Look at the bruising. (gesturing the photo) Does that look like a handprint to you?
WARRICK: Could be. (leans back in his chair, folds his hands behind his head, draws in a long breath and sighs) Okay. Sara, can you go back to the morgue and see if there is anything we missed? Also, check in with Greg to se if we got any hits on anything. Nick, check out Mikey's dorm and figure out how she ended up in the alley. I'm gonna pay McDaniels a visit and se if he'll let me peek in his files.
WARRICK, NICK, and SARA rise
WARRICK (continuing): Nick, I'll catch up with you when I'm done with McDaniels. Keep me posted so I can talk to Cath.
NICK: Sure.
SARA: Okay.
NICK and SARA exit the room.
