SVU Squad room
Tuesday, June 6
Cragen walked out of his office to deliver the newest case to his detectives.
"231 West 87th street. 34 year old rape victim," Cragen announced.
"She still alive?" Olivia asked.
"EMS is loading her now."
"We're on it," Elliot said as he and Olivia got up and walked out of the office.

"Police, step aside please," Olivia announced when they arrived on scene. Quite a crowd had gathered outside.
"SVU?" the young officer questioned.
"Detective Benson, this is my partner Detective Stabler," Olivia introduced themselves to the officer.
"Maurice Boscorelli, you can call me Bosco," the officer introduced himself.
"What have we got?" Elliot asked.
"Victim is Kim Zambrano, she's the paramedic supervisor here in the 5-5. No sign of forced entry, but she was found on the living room floor. Her mother found her when she came to drop off her son."
"Since you're familiar with the victim, do you know of anyone who may want to have hurt her? An ex or patient?" Olivia asked.
"No patients that I know of. She has an ex-husband, but as much as I hate the guy, he'd never rape anyone, especially Kim."
"You got a name?" Elliot asked.
"Jimmy Doherty."
"Address?" Elliot continued.
"I don't know about home, but he's the lieutenant at the 5-5."
"He's a cop?" Olivia questioned.
"No, fire. He took over recently because their old lieutenant was killed."
"Why don't you two get along?" Olivia asked.
"He's just pig-headed and arrogant."
"Anything personal?"
"Nothing beyond practical jokes. You think I went after Kim as revenge?" Bosco asked defensively.
"They are just routine questions, we have no suspects yet," Elliot explained.
"Anything else?"
"Not now."
Officer Boscorelli walked away from the two detectives.
"Just what we needed, a case that'll have not only PD on our backs, but FD too," Olivia said.
"Fire will just be worried about finding out who did it, the brass is who is going to want everything done by the book."
"True."
"We better get inside."
Elliot and Olivia walked into the victim's apartment and were greeted by three more officers.
"Detectives Benson and Stabler. What have you got for us?" Olivia asked.
"Sasha Monroe," the female officer introduced herself. "Ty Davis and John Sullivan," she continued pointing to the two officers behind her. "No sign of forced entry. She still had her shirt on when we arrived, but no pants."
"Did you get anything from her?"
"She just kept asking for Jimmy."
"Her ex-husband."
"Yeah. I'm new around here so I don't know the whole story between them."
"Any idea how long she was here?" Elliot asked.
"Not really, her mother found her when she came to drop off her son."
"Where is her mother?"
"She went with Kim to the hospital."
"Thank you. We'll need to speak to each of you about the victim."
"Anything. You know where to find us."
Elliot gave her a nod and headed out of the apartment. Their next stop was Angel of Mercy where Kim was taken.

The nurse directed them to Kim's room. They found her mother and a man they assumed to be Jimmy Doherty in the room with her. Jimmy turned around when he heard footsteps behind him.
"Can I help you?" Jimmy asked.
"My name is Detective Stabler and this is my partner Detective Benson. We are investigating Miss Zambrano's rape," Elliot explained.
"You have to find out who did this," Jimmy said, obviously angry.
"We intend to, but we will need your help," Olivia said.
"Anything."
"I'm assuming you are Jimmy Doherty?" Elliot asked.
"Yes, I'm her ex-husband."
"So we've heard. You two get along?"
"We have our moments, but we've been better lately."
"Explain 'your moments'," Olivia asked.
"She attempted suicide a couple of years ago and we got into a custody fight. It seemed like every little thing that happened we threw back in each other's faces. I was also behind on child support payments and she would get on me about it."
"Nothing physical?"
"Never. I would never hurt her, I love her. If you think I had anything to do with this then you are on the wrong trail."
"Mr. Doherty, we are just asking routine questions. Spouses are always the top suspect in something like this, but if we can clear them quickly then we do that."
"Sorry."
"Did Kim say anything about who may have done this?" Elliot asked.
"No, she just said that he was standing in the hallway when she got home, he pushed his way in before she could close the door. Then she passed out."
"Has she had any problems with anyone that you know of? Like a patient or someone?"
"She hasn't said anything to me. Neither has her partner."
"Who's her partner?" Elliot asked as he opened his notebook to write down the name.
"Monte Parker. He used to be the paramedic supervisor then he got promoted, but he got demoted so he's back. He hasn't taken Kim's promotion well."
"Does he have violent tendencies?" Olivia inquired.
"Not really, but he did go after a newbie a couple months ago."
"What happened?"
"He blamed the newbie for the death of one of our paramedic/firefighters. It was supposed to be his first day, but he never showed and Doc had to pull Alex from the truck. He said she was killed doing his job."
"What came of that?"
"The newbie quit, downtown let Doc slide saying it was emotional distress."
"You buy it?" Elliot asked.
"I guess, he's never really been violent."
"Thank you. We'd like to speak to Mrs. Zambrano also."
"Sure, I'll send her out."
Jimmy walked back in the room and sent Kim's mom out to the detectives.
"I'm Detective Benson and this is my partner Detective Stabler. We understand that you found your daughter?"
"Yes. I came to drop Joey off and I found her."
"Is it normal for you to pick up her son?" Olivia continued.
"When she has to work. She doesn't have a lot of time between the time Joey gets out to when she has to leave from work. If I pick him up everything is on time."
"Have you noticed anything strange about her lately?" Elliot asked.
"No nothing. We went out shopping this past weekend."
"Has she mentioned a problem with anyone? A patient or something?"
"Not to me. The guys at the station would know better."
"We'll talk to them. Thank you for your time," Olivia said.
Mrs. Zambrano walked back into her daughter's room. Olivia and Elliot turned and walked down the hall. It was time to go back to the squad room to regroup.
