The world of American TV series: Starting with the L.A. Patrol

Erin did not hand the information to her father, but handed it to Jack first. "The bad news is that we have two big problems left. Garth Carey, who has a copper smelting addiction, has done three things to a child. Assault, a first-degree felony, the judge is still hesitant to dismiss."

"You mean something like this will be released?" Jack opened the folder, glanced at it for a few times and couldn't stand it any longer. He took out the relevant files and handed them to Frank.

"How do you think the judge will rule?" Frank took the file and looked through it with a frown.

Erin showed a not too optimistic expression, "Although this guy does worry me, I'm more worried about this Dick Reed."

Hearing the name, Frank exhaled heavily from his nose, clearly impressed.

This was the first time Jack had heard of this man, and the remaining three-quarters of the folder were filled with case files about him, a serial rapist and murderer.

"So this Dick is his real name and not a nickname?" Jack's question made Erin roll her eyes.

"Three innocent women suffered brutal torture, knife cutting, burning, repeated rape and sexual abuse before being killed by him. There were also many missing women who were suspected to be related to him, but because no bodies were found."

Irene glanced at the file that Jack opened. Although this case was handled by her personally, seeing the relevant photos and evidence again made her feel strongly uncomfortable as a woman.

"This is really adding fuel to the fire," Frank muttered, already anticipating tomorrow's headlines.

"We don't have many chips in our hands. He is a very smart pervert and is very cautious when committing crimes. CSI also convicted him through DNA evidence from a small amount of saliva remaining on the corpse. The only way now is to let Bayi in the new round of trial." Ji Swatch came forward to testify against him."

When Erin mentioned the name, she looked at Jack and explained, "Becky was the only survivor of Dick Reed's men. She was tortured for 19 hours and finally escaped by relying on the flame of a candle to burn the rope.

I went to her three times to persuade her to testify, but "

"It's understandable." Jack pulled out the photo of the victim and could see that this was a sweet-looking girl with a bit of artistic temperament. She was in her mid-twenties and in her prime.

In the photo in his hand, the girl had two long bloody stab wounds on her left cheek, not to mention scars on her body and other parts. "This is a strong girl."

Although Irene said that she refused to testify in court, Jack still gave the above evaluation. Being able to persist with such an injury for 19 hours and finally find a chance to escape from Dick Reed's clutches is enough to show that this girl has the same skills as her. That seemingly delicate body does not match the strong willpower.

Frank also agreed with this, "Thanks to the clues she provided, we found Reed. We can't be too harsh on her."

"I'm just sorry that Dick Reed gave up resistance the first time he saw the police and was arrested. It seems that as you said, this guy is indeed a cunning beast."

The implication of Jack's words made Erin frown subconsciously, but she did not express her views on the so-called "abuse of force" by the police as she did when Jack first attended the Reagan family gathering. To exclude or recruit criminals, there are also human rights and other debates.

It seems that the quarrel between Irene and Danny was more of a way for the brother and sister to communicate their feelings. The eldest lady has always had the blood of the Reagan family flowing in her bones, not the kind of white blood that makes people feel disgusted. Left.

"I will let Danny keep an eye on this Reed, and you, dear, I believe you will be able to find enough evidence to convict him."

What is strange is that when Frank said these words, his eyes always stayed on Jack.

The problem is that none of the words in the Director's words have anything to do with him. Jack's eyes kept scanning the faces of the father and daughter in front of him. Frank had a solemn look on his face, while Eileen looked as confused as himself.

"Ahem!" Frank coughed lightly, opened the drawer of his desk, took out a wooden box and placed it on the table, "Jack, I heard that you will soon be leading a team alone, what do you think? How about a gift?"

Although he felt that the topic suddenly changed a bit abruptly, Jack curiously opened the gun box and saw a big gun lying inside.

"Is this a SIG Sauer P320?" But there was something wrong with the size. He pressed the magazine release button with some confusion, and the magazine slid smoothly into his palm, and then he skillfully pulled the slide to hold it in place. In the idle state, he took out a bullet from the magazine and studied it carefully.

"Is this a .40 pistol bullet? No, it's a fully charged 10mm Auto ammunition, not even a reduced-charge 'FBI load'?" Jack was a little surprised. This thing didn't look like something the police would equip.

Frank nodded with a smile, "The model of this gun is Sig Sauer P320-XTen. It is indeed a 10mm caliber. Someone tried to sell this pistol to the NYPD, but it is obvious that the power of this gun is a bit excessive. Consider The FBI was once equipped with pistols of this caliber, and I left a batch of samples for you."

The FBI did once equip 10mm Auto ammunition as the standard pistol ammunition. This incident originated in 1986, when eight FBI field agents and two Florida brothers met on a narrow road and fired 150 rounds at each other within 5 minutes.

The final result was that although the FBI won, it was a tragic victory. Although the two Florida guys were shot dead on the spot, two FBI agents also died in the line of duty and five others were injured, four of whom were seriously injured and one was slightly injured.

This incident was once rated as the most failed operation in the history of the FBI, and caused the FBI to suffer from a severe phobia of insufficient firepower. It directly selected 10mm Auto ammunition as the standard pistol ammunition, and uniformly issued Smith \u0026 Wesson 1076 pistols.

However, the level of firearm design at that time was not enough to suppress the recoil of such large-caliber ammunition. Later, the FBI had to customize a batch of reduced-charge versions of 10mm Auto ammunition. This is also the origin of the "FBI load" in Jack's mouth.

Afterwards, Smith \u0026 Wesson saw business opportunities and simply reduced the cartridge size based on the 10mm Auto bullet and created the .40 S\u0026W pistol bullet.

At the same time, the Glock company also joined in the fun and launched a Glock 20 pistol using a 10mm caliber. However, after the launch of the new 9mm pistol bullet, this wave of popularity gradually subsided because the latter The stopping effect is also good, and the ammunition capacity is also larger.

After that, 10mm pistol bullets were basically only used for hunting purposes. After all, they were too powerful to shoot two-legged animals, but they were just right for shooting four-legged animals.

However, as the number of two-legged beasts that have exploded in combat effectiveness after taking drugs has increased over the years, the popularity of 10mm pistol ammunition has increased again, and it seems reasonable for someone to try to sell pistols of this caliber to the NYPD.

Jack naturally wouldn't think that the chief of the NYPD was doing something to promote the arms company. After all, even if his team was officially established, there would only be two or three kittens. How many guns could it use?

So this is indeed a gift, perhaps a small thank you for helping to solve the NYPD's internal problems before, but it is a bit intriguing to take it out at this time.
