Warrick finished interviewing the five officers on scene and had their guns returned to them when Officer Hawke entered the building. "I am here to meet with Catherine Willows or Sara Sidle," he said as he walked up to the reception desk. "One moment please" the receptionist smiled and paged the two women to the front desk.
Warrick who was waiting in the break room for them to return heard the page and went to investigate.
"Hi, Ms Willow and Ms Sidle are unavailable, can I help you with something" he smiled approaching the officer.
Warrick lead him to the interrogation room.
Catherine woke up on a cold and damp basement floor. "Sara?" she whispered as she sat up slowly. "Sara?" she called again.
Sara moved from the door she was kicking and bent down on the floor beside Catherine. "Were stuck in here" she turned to Catherine and tried helping her to her feet "Are you alright?"
Catherine shook her head " yeah, I'll be fine. Are you alright?" Sara nodded and walked back to the door.
"I have been banging forever, I don't think anyone is out there." She rested her back against the door and slid slowly down toward the floor.
Catherine came and sat down beside her "Did you see who he was?" Catherine asked, "I mean, was he an officer from the scene, or was he just a phoney?"
Sara put her hands on her head " I did not recognize him, I doubt he was a real cop, but he certainly fooled us."
"What do we do now Cath?" Catherine left out a small sigh " I have no idea, I guess we wait and see if he is going to come back for us."
Warrick sat in the interrogation room with Brass and Officer Hawke.
"Could you put your hands out please?" Warrick stood up ready to conduct his gunshot residue test.
"Officer Hawke, you have residue on your hands, care to explain." Brass snickered.
The officer stood up from his chair " Well" he sarcastically began "I am a cop, and earlier in the evening I had to use my weapon."
"You wouldn't happen to have your weapon with you now do you?" Warrick asked him. The officer sat back down in his seat "And why would I not have it?" he said handing it over to Warrick "I need it back ASAP I have a job to do."
Warrick took the gun to ballistics and had it tested and compared. After dropping off the gun and asking for rush results he made his way back to the interrogation room.
"Mr.. Officer Hawke do you have any idea who may have started the fire at the Mossey residence tonight?"
Officer Hawke shrugged his shoulders " I told that women I had no idea and I am telling you the same thing, I have no idea who started the fire." Warrick raised his eyebrows "I don't understand, who was the first officer on scene?"
Officer Hawke made a face " My partner Mike and I were, and I called you guys, and three other officers. We found one body and then we waited for the other officers and we secured the scene by the time the CSI's arrived."
Warrick looked over at Brass who then nodded his head. "Do you know a Dave Fowlen?" Warrick began to ask as he opened his folder.
Officer Fowlen shook his head, "yeah, he was on the force back in 98 for about half a year and then he quit, he had an attitude problem, he didn't understand the definition of team."
Warrick flipped through some files " Did you ever have an altercation with him."
Officer Hawke hesitated for a moment " Sort of, he had this thing for my wife and I told him to stay away from her, no big deal. That's not why he quit his job is it?" he as asked with concern in his voice.
Warrick sat back in his chair " According to one of your fellow officers you had more then one altercation with him and you were suspended for threatening his life, soon after that he quit."
Officer Hawke slammed his fist on the desk "he attacked my wife, he had to be stopped."
"Well" Brass came from the darkness of the corner "someone certainly stopped him"
Officer Hawke was angry "I didn't kill him and you have no reason to think I did, why would I risk my career."
Warrick stood up from his chair when there was a knock at the door. His results from ballistics were in.
