Dumpy Murder – Part 11

Catherine gets into bed, hoping for what could happen tomorrow. She rests her head against her pillow, how soft it was reminded her of where she rested her head in the cooler. She felt the edge of her head, still sore from resting it there. She slowly drifted to sleep.

The Next morning, she awoke to a loud smash, she heard a shattering window and she quickly hid in the closet, quickly rummaging through the bag to find her gun, she pulls it out. She over hear their conversation:

"The farmer is in jail, the big cheese hired us to bring this chick down if she brought him down"

"Man, I don't care about him, I don't want to do this"

"You don't go through with this and they've got a hitman after us, they've got contacts like you wouldn't believe."

"Fine, let get the chick and go, quickly"

She looks through the slits on the side of the closet, she sees them walk in, both holding pistols. The were fully covered up in black clothing, masks on their head and gloves on, her eyes focus on the one closer to her, he taller than the other one. She sees the both turn away from her and sees an opportunity. She shoots the closer one in the hand, and then quickly makes her move, she jumps out of the closet and hits the other one with mace.

She knocks the one with a bullet in his hand into the other and says, "You're under arrest" kick both their guns to the sides and holding hers at them. She then walks over to her purse, and carefully pulls out her cellphone, she dials 911 and says, "Hello, its Catherine Willows of the Vegas police, could you send a few of my pals down here, thanks" She hangs up.

Minutes later, sirens sound nearby, Catherine hears them grow louder until there is a knock on the down. "Come right on in" She says, the squeaking door slowly opening, "In here" Nick and Grissom walk in. "Need a hand Cat?"

"I just might, these guys might need to be hauled off to jail"

They drive the two back to the interrogation room. Catherine and Nick ask the two criminals, who turn out to be Edward and Roger Yamakre.

"Who sent you?"

"What are you talking about"

"I heard you talking in my house, who sent you"

Edward starts to break out crying, "You gotta help me, I'll tell you, but you gotta protect me from his men, they're everywhere, help me please"

"Who is this man?"

"I don't know his name… he was only known by his stage name, Ramblo, he was a hypnotist, that's all I know, he's popular, he does a lot of shows so he shouldn't be hard to find"

Catherine pulls Nick out of the room, "Nick, you don't think that these people, they've all been"

"Hypnotized? If so, its possible, I would be willing to believe, but it wouldn't hold up in court, we've gotta link them together"

"Should be simple enough, I've been to his shows, everything is computerized and recorded by his assistant… there might be dirt on her computer too"
