Just down the hall.”Trask. Piece of work, Ricky thinks to himself as he walks back to his desk. He'd met a few Brits in Italy, Eighth Army guys. Tough as nails, but with that odd sense of humor. Took some getting used to.Ricky places a phone call to the Los Angeles Police Department. “Good morning, this is Special Agent Garces of the FBI. I’m inquiring about a homicide that occurred recently, possibly within the City’s jurisdiction. Yes, I’ll hold.” Transfer. “Yes, good morning, this is Special Agent Garces of the FBI. I’m inquiring about a recent homicide that we believe may have occurred within the City’s jurisdiction. The victim’s name…yes, I’ll hold.” Another transfer. Ricky rubs the bridge of his nose with his fingers. It’s already starting to be a long day, and I haven’t even had my second cup of coffee. “Hello, this is Special Agent Garces of the FBI. I’m inquiring about a homicide of a woman named Michelle Dowling, D-O-W-L-I-N-G, age 27, that we believe may have occurred in your jurisdiction.” Yes, Dowling died within the city limits. Yes, he can come to the division and review the case file. No, they won’t release any information over the telephone.Ricky hangs up the phone, scribbles “LAPD” on his notepad, taps his pencil on his desk. He picks up the phone and dials the County Coroner’s office. “Good morning, this is Special Agent Garces of the FBI in Los Angeles. I’m trying to locate information on the body of a recent homicide victim. Yes, I’ll hold.” Transfer. “Hello, this is Special Agent Garces of the FBI. I’m inquiring about the body of Michelle Dowling, D-O-W-L-I-N-G , age 27, a homicide victim. It was an LAPD case – I’m sorry I don’t have the case number. I’d like to confirm that your office still has the body.” (Diplomacy 20 – 22 if +2 synergy for Knowledge (behavioral sciences))</blockquote>
