"Law &
Order" solves local crime,
4 May 2004

Author: maryedgar-1 from Stafford,
Virginia

On Sunday, May 2, 2004, the local
newspaper, The Free Lance-Star, reported the discovery of a body in a dumpster
outside a motel. The following day , the paper
reported the arrest of the murderer, thanks in part to the quick action of one
of the motel residents. While the police were securing the crime scene, one of
the by-standers was approached by a man who asked her
what was going on. When she told him about the body, he ran across the street
and jumped onto a waiting van. She later told a newspaper reporter that she had
"watched enough "Law and Order" episodes to know suspicious behavior when she sees it." She got out her
camera-phone and starting taking photographs of the man and the license plate
on the van. The police downloaded the photos, tracked down the van, connected
all the dots, and had the killer in custody 39 hours after the discovery of the
body. "Law and Order" RULES !!
