[You need to go back to reading from the Prologue: Smiling Block Murders if this is your first in this series]
Thursday 2nd February 12.00am
An eleven year old girl called 911 at 11.00pm reporting that her mother hadn’t got back home from work. She had last spoken with her mother at 7.00pm when she was swiping out from work. It usually only took her twenty minutes to get home but today she was unusually late, even if she had decided to take a detour for groceries or others.
By profession she was a hair design specialist at the “Spunk Hair Design” on West Pico Boulevard.
[What happened to time where we referred to them as barbers?]
911 broadcasted the emergency and had a black and white unit drive around West Pico Boulevard to explore possibilities. The entire neighborhood was dark and inhabited. After driving in a few circles they fell upon a fluttering piece of cloth lying on the pedestrian walk on the Pico Boulevard, just a street away from Spunks. Being on the opposite side of the street, they made a U and drove closer flashing their spotlights. It turned out to be a body, a body of a woman. The stillness convinced them of no life.
The forensic unit was paged in.
Shots were taken and the body was rolled on its back. The street around the body was bare. There were no bags, no lady purses. There was no id on the body either. The only information available was that she was a white female in her forties, had a stab wound in the lower left abdomen and she was probably stabbed between 8pm to 9pm.
The one thing found on the body was this piece of paper
A unit, with the picture of the victim, drove up to the little girl’s house that called 911 and reported her missing mother. She identified the victim as her mother Phoebe. Phoebe Warren.
The LAPD’s preliminary conclusion put this to be a robbery turned homicide.
They waited for the forensic to find more evidence and determine the next steps.
