Chapter Three

Sergeant Joseph Kennedy's body will be staying in the cooler at the local coroner's office until someone decides to claiming his body. Even though he didn't have any type of family with the investigation.

However the people that were responsible for his death. They have been interested in making sure that no one would be able to find out why he died. However with the autopsy, the answer was very clear as to why.

When the report was sent to Captain Beckett at the 12th precinct in the morning. She asked to speak with Sergeant Esposito when he arrived to his station. She just couldn't believe in what was found with the autopsy shaking her head drinking a rare cup of coffee in her office. She had asked Ryan once he had arrived to give the message to him to come to her office right away.

Moments later...

There was a knock on her office door. She asked who ever it was to come on inside. It was Sergeant Javier Esposito walking inside curious as to what was going on.

"Captain, you asked for me? " He asked with being asked to sit on down in front of her.

"Javi, I would like you to read the coroner's report on one of the reasons why Sergeant Joseph Kennedy had died. " She hands him the ten page report on the victim.

He takes the report from her hand to begin reading it. It was very quiet inside the office once he started to read. While she waited for his reaction on what was found in the stomach contents.

After a brief moment...Sergeant Esposito had to whistle after reading the paragraph a second line about finding a diamond in the Sergeant's stomach. "WOW! Now I know why he was killed in the crash Beckett. It looks like who ever did it plainly murdered him that's for sure."

"I agree with you, Javier. It's why the police commissioner wants a full scale investigation on this murder. I will be assigning it to you, Ryan and two other teams including Lt. Jose Alverez and Sergeant William Anderson. They will be working the case for the over night shift. Since they have a great deal of sources on the streets that will be able to help."

"Good Beck. I will get started on the investigation with my partner. I will need to begin at the precinct he worked out of the past few months. I just hope his co-workers would be able to give us an insight to what he's been doing the past months." Esposito replied to have the Captain shaking his hand with good luck on the case.

Moments Later...

Kevin Ryan looked up from his computer terminal..."How did it go bro?" Ryan asked with wanting to know the details.

"It would seem that Sergeant Joseph Kennedy had his hand in the cookie jar. Doctor Perlmutter found a diamond in the stomach contents. And Captain Beckett wants us to work on the case to find out who is responsible for his murder."

"Besides the tampering of the brakes?" Ryan said with Esposito agreeing to his statement.

"Yes bro."
