A New Angle

Making my way back to the precinct the next day I find I'm the first in the squad room. Turning on the computers and the printers reveals to me that someone made at least one copy of my unfortunate incident with Kidson. Thereaux is the next in and cannot meet my eyes when I say "Good Morning!" to him. Caroline calls in saying she was going to be late.

"A good night Caroline?"

"And how I don't know how many times I got off last night watching Carly!" Turning a beet red when she realizes she talking to me. Hanging up before I can make any comment, I turn and unleash my wrath on Thereaux.

"Did you know she made a copy of a police file for personal use?" Before he cold reply "Is this going to be an everyday occurrence when I'm molested on duty?" Thereaux tries to say something "Maybe Captain Cartier and his honor the mayor need to be made aware of how this squad is being ran!" Spittle flying from my mouth hitting Thereaux dead on the nose.

Wiping it off "She has already been reprimanded by Cartier and so haven't I for allowing it Going over to the phone and making a call, placing it on speaker when it's answered "As per your instructions "Officer Carly Graspper, I Sergeant Darren Thereaux issue you an apology for action unbecoming an officer of this police ****. I never meant for you to be exploited by underlings in my command and swear to you it will never happen again!"

Out of the phone "Very good Thereaux but i still docking you a day's pay!" Then to me "Officer Graspper i want to know that i'm disgusted by their actions, hopefully todays new area will not lead to a similar incident . I'll leave it to Thereaux to explain!" then the dial tone signalling the Mayor has hung up.

"Well there you go Carly, people are taking this seriously!" Handing me a cup of sludge with a slight flavor of coffee "The mayor has been getting complaints that the story time at the public library has been attracting the wrong type of followers, especially the afternoon session at 2 pm. We think the teenage volunteers are being harassed by an old man while reading the daily story.

Considering that the weather network claims it was going to rain this afternoon, I think being inside would be perfect. Before he even asks, "I'll do it!" Then I gather my gear and go change before returning to S.C.J. Central for the morning.
