Girl Five


 The Broad and Fernwood train yard....The end of the line for the Broad Street Subway....and the site of another dead young lady....


''We called you as soon as we found her...Lieutenant."said one of the CSI guys.. 

Like our fourth girl, she was a Latina...the other three, two were African-Americans and one was Asian...


"She put up a fight Sissy...Her panties are ripped and she scratched our victim....There is skin underneath her fingertips....Her neck is broken and the condom the doer used is broken and there is semen samples on it... She was beaten up pretty bad." said Hazel..


"But we've got Blood...We've got a little bit of semen...We've got skin....Now we've got enough for something. Our killer got careless." said Sissy.
 

"Finally a bit of a break." said Carlotta.

"We can run this DNA through VICAP...Maybe we'll get a hit." said Tyriq, who had on latex gloves and was examining the body with Jimmy...

"Even Interpol and the Military...a complete sweep.. We gotta turn up something." said Jimmy.


'Sharon will run it through the FBI's database... It's much larger than ours." said Sirena..

"And while she's doing that...We'll find out who our girl was and what she was doing around here."said Hop..

"Her purse is right here...Here is her drivers license..Her name is Marcy Garcia...and she didn't live too far from here.. She has a work ID...She was a waitress at a local diner...not to far from here."said Duke.

"My Guess is , she was on her way home..." said Angie.

"Duke, Angie...look into that for me please." said Sissy.


"Oh wow...look..it's the press..." I said.
"What are they doing here? We just found out." said Hazel..

Reporters and Photographers arrived en masse snapping photos and asking questions..

"IS THIS THE LATEST VICTIM OF THE BROAD STREET STRANGLER?"

"WHAT IS BEING DONE ABOUT THIS?"

"HAVE YOU GOT ANY LEADS?"



"This is a crime scene.. right now we know as much as you do.. Please back up and allow law enforcement to do their job please.." I said.

 "Guys seal this area off... If you're finished , Hazel you can release the body."said Sissy.


"You know who is not here?  I'm surprised...He's usually got his nose all up in this case."said my wife, Carlotta.

''Captain Stewart..Yeah, how about that."said Tyriq.


"He's probably asleep somewhere." laughed Jimmy.

"Wonder who tipped the press off?" said Sirena.

"Can't Blame Lt. Tragg for this...but you can bet he's somewhere watching this on Television." said Hop.

''Screw him..we 've got a job to do...providing politics don't get in the way and impede us."said Duke.

"The Worst thing that could happen is if this is declared a "Red Ball " and then you have detectives stepping on each other's toes and just dirtying the waters." said Angie.
"Okay guys...bag her and tag her." said Hazel.


The body was put in a white body bag and strapped to a gurney and prepared to be taken to the morgue..


While at Sam Mother's Diner...


Lt. Tragg was served his breakfast as he watched the Morning news on the monitor overhead..








"Look at that Sam..a fifth body...They've already got four cold cases and not a clue, not a suspect..Sissy is in over her head on this one.." said Lt. Tragg.


Sam Mother said nothing...He just shook his head and listened to Lt. Tragg whine.



II-


HOURS LATER-


Carlotta and Jimmy returned to headquarters-


Carlotta tossed the case files on the desk..

"I just got back from Homicide... These are the case files on the two previous murders." she said.


"The two detectives who worked those cases are gone..One retired and is no longer living in the Philadelphia area and the other went on leave yesterday...I can't locate him." said Jimmy.

"Hmmmmmm.....I mean that is possible...but it seems very odd...I want Plain clothes and uniformed men doubled up all up and down Broad Street and plain cars surveiling... Tyriq, you handle that."said Sissy,


"I'm on it Siss." said Tyriq...


"We Interviewed the dead girl's Family and Friends and Co-workers at that Diner... They said she did occassionally sleep with a few customers...for extra money and to buy weed.." said Sirena.


"I checked out the Weed dealer... He alibied out, but he told me something odd.. He said an Old Guy..a guy who used to eat at the nearby diner where she worked may have been one of her customers..and I don't mean meal buying customers... I've got the person that told me at the police station giving our artist a sketch and looking at mug shots of sex offenders." said Hop..

''Good work guys.." said Sissy.


"I put the little bit of DNA we have through decks and VICAP and even Interpol and I got nothing...This guy has no arrest record and has never been in the Armed Forces... I checked with Military..." said Sharon...



"We are chasing a ghost..." said Sissy...



"I double checked all of these women's financials....It's not much....but they seemed to have a boost in the amount of money they showed right before they were killed..They'd be close to broke one minute, then get a boost in finances..the next..a big boost...Three of the four used a check cashing place on Broad Street... They didn't have bank accounts... That's all they had in common...and before you ask..They always came in alone....on Thursdays...Not Friday the way people typically come in."said Angie.


"Our guy is good at covering his tracks...very little DNA...No prints and we don't know where he dumps them...We checked the cars of the four that owned cars...Not one print...Not one bit of DNA ,other than the victim's." said Duke..


''He'll make a mistake sooner or later." said Carlotta.

''Yes... but will someone else have to die before he does?" asked Sissy.



SAM MOTHER'S DINER-

Captain Louis Stewart walked in...He was wearing a bandadge..He had been to the hospital and gotten stitches on his cheek...


"Hey Lou...what the hell happened to you?" asked Lt. Tragg...


'Ahhh nothin...Nothin...Got hit with some flying glass. , an accident...an accident at the house is all." said Lou Stewart....


As his coffee arrived..


"Some of Sissy's detectives got what might be a break in the case...They found a co-worker of the last girl, who may have seen her leaving the diner she worked at with one of her johns..They got her down at Central Booking , giving the police artist a sketch..." said Lt. Tragg...


"OH YEAH?" said Lou Stewart...



"Yeah...if I know right...it's a whole lotta nothin...They gotta show they are doin somethin..."laughed Lt. Tragg.


"Yeah , how bout that?" laughed Lou Stewart Nervously...



And meanwhile , back at Headquarters...






 "I've studied both case files of the two previous Broad Street Murders... One in 2017 and the one in early 2018... It took awhile before both detectives conferred with one another.. but both did investigations simular to ours.. They cross checked financials, credit cards, debit cards, bank accounts...They talked to Family, Friends, Associates, Co-workers, Johns...what have you and alibied everybody out...Just like you guys did and found the same thing...A condom used with a spermicide , so no semen... no prints, no DNA... and both girls used the same check cashing place that our first three did and appeared to be flush with extra cash...right up until they vanished off the streets...both girls were left on Broad Street, with no witnesses of camera footage of how they got there... Both cases soon went cold.." said Sissy..

"But we have something...we have DNA...a little, but enough...We have Blood , Semen and skin.."said Carlotta.

"On One girl...Girl Five and we have no hits on VICAP, Federal Databases, Military Databases or Interpol."said Tyriq..

"We haven't tried Civil Service yet.."said Jimmy.


"That's a thought...I hate to say this ...but we could be looking for a cop...It wouldn't be the first time."said Sirena.

"This killer seems to know everything a cop would look for and has done away with all of the normal clues..." said Hop...

"Hop has a point...but I still want to believe this is just a very careful guy....Speaking of which...Where is our good Captain?" asked Duke.

''Haven't seen him today..." said Angie.

''Just as well...We were able to get some work done.....in silence and the press isn't in on your next moves." said Sharon...


"We haven't got any moves.." sighed Hop.


"Well , Besides Quantico...I sent the DNA evidence you gave me to an independent lab...We'll see what they turn up." said Hazel..



''Let's go home guys...Tomorrow is another day... Chica....I want you to do me a favor, before you go...Make copies of those files..and take your copies back to Homicide... Take the originals and lock them in our basement safe...Let's take advantage of Lt. Tragg and Captain Lewis, not being here."said Sissy..


"Will do Boss Lady." said Carlotta.


III-

Nightfall Came-



Carlotta was the last person home...Everyone else had come home and had settled down long ago..


"Heyy husband..." she said to me..


"Any luck? I mean any breaks in the case?" I asked.

"No... We studied the two previous cases...from 2017 and 2018...The cold cases...We didn't get to talk to the original case detectives....One retired and is in parts unknown..The other went on leave yesterday and we don't know where he is.. We did turn up an eyewitness...Someone who said they saw a frequent customer with the last girl...an "older man." she said..  She was giving an artist a sketch...Other than that...Sissy has doubled the plain clothes men and cars and uniformed officer presence on Broad Street..but that's it..We got no hits on VICAP, INTERPOL, MILITARY, nothing..."said Carlotta..

"Sounds like these cases may go cold, huh?" I asked.



"But not before you do....HA HA.."laughed Carlotta as I took her in my arms and we kissed...

We began to kiss each other passionately..

"Ummmmmmmmmm papi, I missed you." she said.

"I missed you too!" I said.

I helped her unzip and slip her dress over her head..

we continued kissing 


as I removed her bra and panties...


Looking at Carlotta nude got me more excited by the minute.






"OUUUUUU LOOK AT YOUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!! AYE MIOS DIOS PAPI! " she said, smiling.

She stared at my engorged penis and put her hands over her mouth...

"OUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU PAPI!" she said softly....stroking me softly..."UMMMMMMM,
ALL OF THIS IS FOR ME?" she asked in Spanish...

"SI" I SAID..

She laughed.. "You are beginning to understand spanish now." she said.

"My goodness papi...You can't wait.. Take your time...I'm not going anywhere" she said, laughing heartedly..."Aye Mios Dios...Ouuuuuu Look at you.." she said.





Carlotta eased herself down on me slowly and began kissing me and moving up and down....



She began riding me moving up and down on me...So wet, so soft, smelling like a newborn baby and driving me out of my mind...



I turned her over and entered her and felt her body trembling something terrible...felt the wet tears streaming down the sides of her face and watched her head turn from side to side...She was having an intense orgasm...


I couldn't seem to get enough of her as I plunged deep, deep inside of her.....
.
Soon we were in our bed making sweet love....


Carlotta's beautiful flowery bra lie on the floor near our bed...

Her matching panties were not far from it...

I was on top of the bed thrusting mightily inside of her...

"Ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu papiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii..ayyyyyyyyyyyyyye.."she moaned ....

"Ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu girllllllllllllllllllll, why are you so damn hottt............??"I asked..

"Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh papi..."was all she would say...

Her left hand grabbed my buttock ,almost as if she was guiding me in...

"Papi ,ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu you are driving me crazy.." she moaned feverishly....

"You're driving me crazy..." I moaned...

The bed was shaking and squeaking something crazy....

The headboard was rattling loudly....

If anyone was directly outside our window, they couldn't help but hear us...

EIGHT TO NINE HOURS 
of hot sweaty lovemaking went by.....
"UMMMMMMM PAPI..." she moaned softly as she eased herself up and down on me, kissing me softly...

"OHHHHHHHHHHHH  CARLOTTA!" I moaned softly..
We were on the bedroom floor, I was pounding into her doggie style and she was crying like a little girl..

within minutes I was lifting her up thrusting into her mightily.....


before we wound up back in the bed...making love slowly as I began to come to a fever pitch!!!


"Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmph,ouuuuu girlll!" I moaned..

"ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh papi." she cooed softly...

I wasn't even aware that I was cumming at first....but I was...Like a gusher...

Carlotta held on to me for dear life and began to shake, to tremble...her head began to turn both ways...and her legs got stiff and began to shake...
''Ouu papi...You make me cum so hard.." she said..
I was out of breath...

''Ditto" was all I could say...


We continued kissing in the middle of the floor and the next thing I know...


I had her legs spread wide open and was pounding her doggie style over the dresser drawer..

"OUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!! AYE MIOS DIOS PAPI! " she said, smiling.

I came like a gusher, again and we just stood there, both of us , sweating....and laughing...



I kept wondering...if this might be the one case that this unit couldn't crack..We had a high clearence rate....An Arrest/Conviction rate second to none in the department...But no one..No one detective, no one unit has a perfect record...There is always that one case...That one case that goes cold...That bothers you...and this was a horrible case...a case that had cost five women their lives....

We couldn't know it in the wee hours of the morning, but it was about to cost a sixth woman her life.




IV-


"ARGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" a woman's scream was heard and a window was broken and a woman's body flew out of the window and down into the street....



''Wow...this woman was beaten badly...Multiple contusions.....and that's before she took a header out the window.." said the CSI man..


"Oh My god... And it looks like she just died too!" said Dr. Hazel Baylor, looking at the body...
"I'm so glad you guys got here first...I know you're working those five homicides on Broad Street..but I just couldn't bare to work with Lt. Tragg....No doubt he's probably on his way too.!"said Hazel.

 "It's alright Hazel...We'll absorb one more murder." said Sissy.

"Boss Lady...this may have something to do with our case after all.....This is or rather was our eyewitness...The one who was giving the sketch artist a sketch of the man last seen with our fifth victim." said Carlotta.

"Yeah... She gave the police sketch artist an outline of the man yesterday  and was supposed to come back with a more detailed outline today." said Tyriq...


"I drove her home myself... I told her not to talk to anybody... Me and two uniforms.."said Jimmy.

''So this is Girl six...Our guy is cleaning up..."said Sirena.

"And cleaning up well and proof that our guy is in house....Someone with information, only the police would have."said Hop.

''Damn...She was beaten up pretty bad." said Duke.


"Yes she was... This was to quiet her...She saw somebody...Somebody that doesn't want to be identified..She saw the Broad Street Strangler." said Angie.


"That will do us no good right now.." I said.



"Oh No... Heads up,." said Hazel..

Lt. Tragg walked up....

''What are you guys doing here?  Shouldn't you be on Broad Street , trying to catch a Serial Killer?" said Lt. Tragg.


"This is our eyewitness...The one who was drawing the sketch of  the man she last saw with our last victim." said Jimmy....



''You're right...I remember her from yesterday." said Lt. Tragg. "If I were you...I'd get back there and get that sketch." said Lt. Tragg...

For once, Lt. Tragg was right.


"Sirena, Hop, get over to Central and get that sketch.....and get those files that Carlotta returned yesterday." said Sissy.

''We are on it!, coming partner?" asked Sirena.

"Right Behind You."said Hop.


" Hazel , you can release the body.." said Sissy.

''Alright guys...Wrap her up..."said Hazel..



The body of our young eyewitness was carted off in a body bag strapped to a gurney...on it's way to the morgue...

"This is six young ladies and possibly eight...We've got to find this mad man!" said Sissy.

Back at headquarters....



'What happened to you?" asked Duke.


''Oh Nothing, Nothing...Some damn kids uh er ruh through a rock through my window...I got caught with some flying glass....I'm fine."said Lou Stewart.. "I uh understand you guys caught another murder today huh?" he said.

"Yeah....She was potentially an eyewitness...she claimed she saw a man , an older gentlemen keeping time with our fifth victim...A Waitress, who from time to time dated customers for extra money." said Tyriq..


"I heard you guys were looking into uh er ruh two old murders from six or seven years ago?" asked Captain Stewart..


"We were but the two detectives are gone, one is retired and in parts unknown and another went on leave a few days ago and we don't know where he is...We went to look for the files from those cases over in homicide today and guess what? They're gone." said Jimmy..


"WHATTTTTTTTTTT? You don't say?  Boy, you guys are having some luck on this one. Old files missing, detectives missing...No DNA, No prints...Nothin huh?" he said.


"You won't believe this....The Sketch that Police Artist was doing is gone...." said Sirena.

"Yeah....Gone...All of his other sketches are there , but that one is gone....Nobody can find it."said Hop.


"WHAT?" said Sissy, angry and exasperated..


"Wowwwwwww !  Somebody has got to tighten things up over in Homicide..."said Captain Lou Stewart, looking relieved...
"Yeah ,somebody should." said Angie, staring at him strangely.....



Sissy walked into her office and closed the door.. Carlotta was sitting in there..

"Chica, you put the original files in the safe downstairs like I told you?" she asked.


"Sure Did...Your hunch was right....Those dummy files vanished and so did the sketch....Somebody is sure cleaning up."said Carlotta.

''A Sketch vanished Chica, but not thee sketch...I called over to Homicide...The sketch Artist made another sketch...We have the original...It's also in the safe and wait until you see it.  I hate to say this...but I've been suspecting this for a long time.. The Broad Street Strangler is among us." said Sissy.
