Duck Tape and Phone Books

Written by: Silver Hair Fox

Robyn sat in the passenger side of the CSI-issued Hummer, tears making their way down her cheeks. She looked at Speedle who had the passenger side door open in addition to he was kneeling down to look at her; he took on of her hands and with the other wiped the tears off Robyn's cheeks. Robyn sniffled plus tried to stop crying as she looked at him, "Thanks." She whispered.

Speedle smiled, "Its what I'm here for."

Robyn laughed; but quickly stopped and looked at him, "Tim, I'm going to kill that bastard."

"Now, Bobby," Speedle started, as he took his hand off her cheek and held her other hand, "Why don't we get him behind bars first?"

"Tim, if I remember correctly, he is not going to stop…" Robyn stopped in mind sentence.

"What do you mean?" Speedle frowned; in addition to that he got worried.

Robyn looked down, then back at him. She studied him for a few seconds before explaining. Finally she sighed and started; "Tim, I never told anyone this. Not even Carolyn. But when I helped her get the TRO against Joey… Jose Braunstein, he told me that if he ever got his hands on Carolyn that something bad would happen then to me."

Speedle's eyes went wide, "Bobby we have to get you somewhere safe."

After hours of processing the crime scene, Horatio made his way to the morgue to see what Alexx had found, "Alexx?"

Alexx looked up, "She's just a baby Horatio." Alexx said as she held Carolyn's hand.

Horatio placed his hands on his hips, and nodded, "COD Alexx."

Alexx shook his head, "It wasn't the bullet to the head, that was after death. Look at the ligature marks on her neck. She was strangled before shot," Alexx said showing him. Then pointed to the marks on the arms, "Defensive wounds, and bruising. She fought back, did you sugar?"

"What's this Alexx?" Horatio said pointing to a sticky substance on Carolyn's wrists.

Alexx smiled, "I sent that to trace. My guess; some sort of bounding substance, like duck tape. I also got the bullet sent to Calleigh."

Horatio smiled, "Nice work, Alexx."

Samantha walked through the crime lab, looking for Delko or Horatio, preferably Delko. Was she walked passed on of the evidence rooms a voice rang out to her; "Hey Sammy check this out," Delko said.

Samantha smiled, "Hey Eric, was looking for you."

"Found me," Delko said as he passed her Carolyn's cell phone, "Have a look at the last incoming call."

"Joey Braustein," Samantha read out loud, "She had a TRO against him, so why would he call her?"

"The last out going call was to Robyn, a day before the incoming call from Braustein." Eric said.

"Okay," Samantha said thinking, "What time was the call?"

"4:30 in the morning, her TOD was around 5:30."

Samantha nodded, "Why don't we go through that phone book on her cell phone. And I'll go find Horatio and see if Robyn can shed some light on this."

"Sure, what did you want to talk to me about?" Delko asked, looking at her.

Samantha studied Delko, "We found trace elements that add up to duck tape on our vic's wrists."

"How's things coming?" Horatio asked walking into the office.

Samantha turned around to see Horatio and passed him the Trace Paper, "We found what was on her wrist, and it was duck tape that was used to bind her wrists."

"Good work, Eric?" Horatio said looking at him.

Delko looked back, "Last incoming call was at 4:30 in the morning, from Joey Braustein. Last out going call was the day before to Robyn."

"Nice work, can you go through the phone book, then talk to Robyn, about who she knows on the list?" Horatio asked.

"Will do." Delko replied.

Horatio walked in while Calleigh had her nose down a microscope looking that the striations of the bullet that came from Carolyn's head. Horatio watched Calleigh for a second then placed a hand softly on her shoulder, "Hey Handsome, come to check up on me?" Calleigh asked as she kept looking at the striations.

Horatio smiled, "Of course."

Calleigh thought for a second then turned around and looked at him, she knew her heart rate was up, all due to the fact that Horatio still hand his hand on her shoulder. Calleigh smiled, "All I have found out so far is that this has come from a 9 mm gun. Police issued."

Horatio shook his head, "Good work. Anything else?"

"Now Handsome, you know I have to have a gun to test it against, or another bullet." Calleigh replied, then asked him, "How's Robyn handling this?"

"She's with Speedle right now." Horatio replied then knelt down to face her.

Calleigh smiled lightheartedly, "And how are you handling it?"

"As I do every case Cal."

Robyn finally got Speedle back to work; she went looking for Horatio, "Horatio can we talk?" Robyn asked walking into his office.

"Sure, what is it Robyn?" Horatio said as he motioned for her to sit down.

Robyn did and crossed her legs, "Horatio, I would like to work on this case. I know…"

"Robyn, I don't know." Horatio said leaning closer, "It could cause problems."

"Horatio please, I owe this much to my sister. I couldn't protector her then. But I sure in the hell can put Brau… who ever did this behind bars."

"Robyn, it's harder to be objective when its someone you care about that is the victim." Horatio replied, as he studied her.

Robyn sighed, "Horatio please."

Horatio nodded, "But, if you get to emotionally involved, I have no choice but to pull you off the case."

"I understand."

John Dollins walked into the crime lab, "Excuse me sir? Sir?" the woman at the head desk stopped him, "You can't go in there."

"I'm here to talk to… someone about a crime I saw." John replied.

The woman at the desk nodded, "Just take a seat there." She motioned for the chair.

Ten minutes later Speedle came walking up to him, "My name is Speedle, can I help you?"

"John Dollins…" The man said, he was obviously shaken, "Um, are you working that case about the blonde on the beach?"

"Yes," Speedle said studying the man. He was not sure where the man was going with that statement. So he waited tell the John continued.

"Um, I thought that I should come down here and give a statement of what I saw officer." John answered starring down at the floor.

Speedle looked around and saw Tripp, "Frank! Can you take this guy in for interrogation and get his statement for me?"

"Yeah sure." Tripp said walking over and escorted the man to the interrogation room.
