TRUE CRIME: HANG MAN

CHAPTER TWO

(Winter Christmas Day)

The snow seemed to engulf the entire neighbourhood making it a white paradise. No signs of life as the detective approached the abandoned cul de sac. Cars still in their garage and not even a single drop of warmth as it was Christmas day. No joy just raw dump melancholy.

Detective Brian gets out of his patrol car. The mysterious serial killer known as the hang man strikes again. " What do we have here Ramirez" asked Detective Brian.

" The Hang Man murdered this whole family 2 kids and a single mother, no prints or any sort of DNA, the whole house was bleached Liuetenant" said Ramirez. " Are the optics the same as the Blackpool University murder victim?" asked Detective Brian. "Yes sir" said the forensic pathologist as he entered the house.

"Any neighbours that heard maybe a disturbance? " asked Detective Brian. "All the neighbours fled after getting wind of the murder case, your best bet will be in Oakley" said Ramirez.

"And where the fuck is John!" shouted all across the queer living room where three bodies were hanging from the ceiling. "He's upstairs with the forensic team apparently there is a clue he saw a tiny piece of blonde hair that did not belong to any other of the other victims".

Detective Brian goes upstairs in search for John carrying two cups of coffee. " Looks like I beat you to the crime scene" said Detective John. "Here is your coffee" said Detective John. " Thanks" said Detective Brian clutching the cup and having a sip.

"What do we got here?"asked Detective Brian. "Our first real lead" said Detective John pointing at a pool of blood.

"There was another victim here in the house, some sort of fight or struggle but the woman survived and ran, there are tracks on the backyard make sure these rookies don't contaminate the crime scene" said Detective John.
