"The victims were a family of three, and the scene we entered was a bit gruesome.
The neighboring residents were either out celebrating all night and not home, or partying loudly with a group of friends, so no one heard any unusual noises."
A patrol officer shared the information he had learned in advance.
Brian nodded, "What about the person who reported the crime?"
The patrol officer shook his head, "Someone called from a public phone at 1 PM. There were no surveillance cameras there, so we can only confirm it was a male. The report was brief, just stating that a family of three here had died."
Upon hearing this, Brian immediately realized that this case was not simple.
The call could have come from the murderer themselves,
a brazen and arrogant type.
In such cases, the investigation often becomes more difficult.
Alternatively, the call could have been made by an informant.
