Disappearance.

Tabitha and I headed out this morning to try and track Vanessa's X-Phone - turns out it had been dumped in a field in the middle of nowhere, along with her regular cell. Garrison, could you dust it for prints?

Bring it in. I'll talk to our lab guys here at the field office and see if they can lift anything useful off of it. I should warn you, if it's been there for a few days in any kind of inclement weather, the chances aren't great for more than a partial.

Thanks. I know it's something of a longshot, but at this point, anything is better than nothing.

A buddy of mine down in forensics was able to use laser enhancement to get some clean prints off of the phone. Obviously, most of them are hers. But we did pull two other prints off the keys and the screen.

The first set is for an Andrew Martin. He's a Manhattan lawyer with security clearance from a couple of stints with the DA's office, which is how we got him on file. I got a picture and I think it's one of the faces Vanessa likes to use. I've uploaded a shot of him.

The other one isn't in the database at all. But I got a partial off of a magazine cover that Vanessa had flipped through back at the mansion about six, seven months ago, while she was wearing her redhead look. It's a match.

So, whatever Vanessa was doing, she spent most of her time with the phone in her body, but needed to switch to a male and a female persona for a time. And we know what both of them look like. You have a window of time between her last appearance and the range of her disappearance. If this was an investigation, I could pull footage from road cams, local shops, and send a group of agents down there with pictures and reconstruct her movements up to when she diappeared.

The poroblem is for me to be able to do any of that, I need a crime to work with. Otherwise, you guys are going to have to run this down as civilians.

Thanks for this.

Taking a look at the picture, Andrew is the face of the male alt she's been using recently, James. I'm presuming she was using both of them in the case she was working on when we lost contact.

Bishop is coordinating the search for her, I'll pass on the information.

Thanks again for this. Remind me to buy you a drink or several at some point.
