On 17Nov2010 at approximately 2000hrs, I was contacted by Lt. Bob who informed me that I was needed to process a crime scene. I responded directly to 10 Science Drive apt 3. Upon arrival, I noted that the outside temperature was approx 40deg and the air was clear. I met with Officer Sue informed me that

there was a possible suicide/homicide. I walked through the scene and Officer Sue pointed out several areas of interest.

I saw that the front door was open and the lights were on. I was informed that this is how the scene was discovered upon first officer’s arrival. Blah blah blah blah
