Criminal Justice: Wednesday

Students for the Criminal Justice workshop were notified to meet at the main campfire CAMPFIRE! for their workshop.

As the students gather the first thing the would probably notice is there is a large truck sitting next to the campfire. How it got there on an island with weetiny streets? Sorry. Gibbs isn't telling. Next to the truck is a stack of large plastic cases resembling tackle boxes. Each box was labeled with the name of the students.

Gibbs himself is standing next to the truck with his ever present cup of coffee in his hand. "Welcome to the Criminal Justice workshop," he said once everyone had arrived. "I'm Jethro Gibbs. I've spent the last 16 years working for NCIS. If you've never heard of it, I wouldn't be surprised. Think of it as the FBI for the Navy and Marines. For the next several weeks I'm going to be drilling into your heads the basics of investigating a criminal case."

He paused long enough to take a sip of coffee before continuing.

"First off, introductions. Everyone tell me your name and what you hope to get out of this course," Gibbs said as he began handing out a forensic equipment checklist. "After that I want you to go through the van and fill up your forensic kits. Get everything on the list except for the cameras. We'll have to share those as there aren't enough to go around. Make sure you bring your forensic equipment to each class Or you're fired. When you're done with your kits you'll need to take your own fingerprints. This is standard procedure in case you accidentally touch something at a crime scene without gloves."

He then gave everyone a glare of warning.

"Which we shouldn't have to do because you'll be wearing gloves the entire time we're investigating a crime scene. But that's another class. Now tell me who you are, get your kits together and get your fingerprints taken."

[OCD is up!]

See, the thing was, they didn't really have methods as such, so Gabrielle had to do what she did most, if not necessarily best. Make stuff up.

"Talk to people?" she hazarded. "Read animal tracks, look at their droppings, figure out which warlord's crest is on the dagger someone left behind at the scene . . ."

It wasn't the edge to Gibbs's voice that got to Gabrielle as much as his point. "No, no, definitely not. For their sake I wouldn't mind lugging it around either. I mean, I . . ."

She shrugged helplessly. "I'm just used to only carrying what two people and a horse can handle."

"I think I can live with that," Gabrielle decided. Having one piece of horse dung tossed at her without warning was more than enough. Ew.

"That's okay," Gabrielle said quickly. What were the odds that she'd end up with a horse that gave her more attitude than Argo liked to? Pretty good in Fandom, actually. "I'll adjust. Lugging equipment can be character-building. I'll just think of it that way."

Diana rolled her eyes. "Which part of that didn't make sense?"

"I'm Sam Winchester," he said, "and I'm taking this course because I've been thinking about studying law in college, and I figure it's probably a good idea to know about the things that happen before someone gets put on trial." That, and he'd been around enough supernatural crime scenes in his life that he wanted to see how regular rules applied.

Ooh, a well-organized list. Sam liked lists a lot, and went through grabbing all the things he recognized, and making his best guess on the things he didn't.

Sam wasn't used to wearing gloves at crime scenes, and he'd never been fingerprinted yet, but he guessed both parts seemed like good ideas.

"Yes, sir." She nodded. "Plus it sounded like something I would enjoy. Which doesn't mean I'm going to take it any less seriously."

Gibbs can head slap Sam any time he wants, mwahaha.
