Back to Back Suicides

This morning I got a call from Patti, about twenty-five hours after the other suicide call. This time it was a hanging in Colfax. It was just outside of Colfax really. When I saw the name I remember hearing it. I asked if the cops were running his name the night before. They said he was a missing person out of Pullman. Then I remembered that Whitcom called for PPD to see if my suicide from yesterday was their guy.

So we figured out where the missing guy went. We seemed to have walked to Colfax and then hung himself. His mom had come in from South-Eastern Washington to look for him. So we had to let her know it was her son.

We went to the funeral home and checked the body and did more photographs. Patti was on call for the rest of the day, but it turned out to be uneventful. For me there was not a whole lot.

At work I had my normal call-in meeting. There was not a lot to report on my side. I have been working on bugs and getting some completed as I go.
