Criminal Justice (As Taught By A Criminal) - Period 3 - Monday 04/21

After receiving a very odd phone call that morning from someone claiming to be stuck keeping a messiah from dying, Renee found herself in the school.

Teaching.

At least she wasn't doing it alone.

"Good morning class," Dale said stepping forward and adjusting his tie. "I am Special Agent Dale Cooper and this is my colleague Detective Renee Montoya. For those of you who are not familiar with either one of use we are members of the local law enforcement community and we are here today to walk you through your final exam."

Renee nodded toward the class, hands clasped behind her back at attention. "I'm not sure what exactly you've been taught up until now, but today we'll be testing you one any skills you hopefully would pick up in a class like this."

If it wasn't taught by a criminal, most likely.

"We'll be giving you an actual case," Dale said leaning against the desk. "One that I am intimately familiar with. Your job is to use the deductive method we provide you to identify the culprit."

"When traditional methods of finding evidence there are other..." Renee looked over at Cooper. "Less conventional ways to solve the case. Controlled meditation in my case."

"In my case it involves a subconsciously gained knowledge of a deductive technique involving mind-body coordination operating hand in hand with the deepest level of intuition," Dale said without skipping a beat. "But first let's go over the crime data. Victim is one Laura Palmer. Murdered and left for dead on the shores of Twin Peaks. Autopsy found that she had sex with two men before she was murdered and her tox screen showed signs of alcohol and cocaine. Our list of suspects include:

Leo Johnson: Cocaine dealer with a nasty temper. Supplied the victim with cocaine and involved her in drug trafficking
Jacque Renault: Leo's partner and blackjack dealer at the casino/brothel where the victim worked part time.
Bobby Briggs: The victim's boyfriend who has a bad attitude and seems to be involved with the local drug trade.
James Hurley: The victim's secret boyfriend who is currently dating the victim's best friend.
Donna Hayward: Laura Palmer's best friend. Also now dating her secret boyfriend.
Leland Palmer: The victim's distraught father. Murdered Jacque Renault while insane with grief.
Sara Palmer: The vicitm's mother. Became unhinged mentally after the murder of her daughter."

Looking away for a moment, Renee just nodded as the suspects were listed.

"Now you'll choose which method you want to use in an attempt to figure out the case." She might have smirked just a little about it. "Good luck."

I know for a fact Jerry Orbach never threw rocks to solve a case.

Michael decided that looked like a better idea than throwing rocks at bottles, so he wandered over and sat down.

Time to see how much he'd picked up from his meditation lessons.

Okay so there was meditation, which could go wrong if his powers freaked out on him, or there was throwing rocks.

Peter picked throwing rocks.

"Any particular way to commune with them?" he asked. Hey, he'd heard stranger things since coming to Fandom.

Dale picked up a rock and tossed it a little in the air to check its weight. "Probably the best way for me to describe it would be the way you try to connect with a golf ball before you even swing a club. You pick it up and you examine it. Get a feel for it," he said gazing at the rock. "And when you feel a connection, then you speak to the rock. Tell it the name and try to project the question at hand. And then?"

Dale threw the rock which bounced off the wall and landed three feet short of the bottle. "You toss it."

Yeah, Annette knew Mr. Cooper alright, which was why she was slinking lower in her seat, trying to appear near nonexistent

Annette has meditated once in her life. Ino taught her. But she was going to do it now, again, just in case... you know, she wasn't a terribly great fan of rocks. If one went astray...

So there she was, lotus position on the floor.

"Is this a bad time to admit I've never played golf?" Peter asked.

"Not at all," Dale said with a chuckle, "We'll start from the beginning. Go ahead and pick up a rock. Feel it in your hand. Become familiar with it."

Peter figured what the heck and grabbed a rock on instinct. He hefted it, trying to get a feel for its weight. "Okay so far. I think."

"Now clear your mind," Dale advised. "And then when you feel the most relaxed state one of the suspects name and throw the rock. Don't aim. Just throw."

"Okay," Peter said. He tried his best to relax. When he felt ready, he said, "Bobby Briggs" and tossed the rock.

It failed to hit a bottle. Possibly because Peter said the wrong name possibly because Peter threw like a girl.
