But when I try to go to it, Youtube tells me it's a malformed video link. I'm not sure on the W and O, though - I'm squinting at the screen and they both look funny. The W looks like VV (also doesn't work), and I've tried both O and 0.

Anyone have better luck?


Where did this come from? I'm lost. I must have missed something. How/where did you get the YouTube video?

Thanks,

The anonymously-sent photo on page 5, of a bathroom with a body in it, has faint text along the bottom edge of the cabinet door. I hadn't noticed it at all until Artemis pointed it out and asked if anyone could read it.

We have word from detective ross

1. Do you happen to know who Mordred Black is, and what he has to do with this case?
-Mordred Black is an Irish terrorist. Who had expanded his terrorism into the U.S. His son is carrying on the tradition.
2. Do you have any idea what the victim might have been working on?
-None at all - I keep getting stonewalled by the Pentagon.
3. There seem to be a lot of anonymous pictures and riddles coming in. Do you know anything about these?
-No.
4. Did the victim's wife have any idea of what was going on? It seems a bit strange to me to just up and take the kids out of the country...
-They were all supposed to be out of the county, for vacation in the Bahamas. He had to miss out on his vacation because he said he had a 'break-through' in his work.
5. Do you have any notes or files that we could use?
-Yes, I have. I'll have to make copies though.
6. Did the victim have anything strange lying around? Maybe some notes?
-No.
7. Were there any eyewitness accounts of his whereabouts, or maybe some check in logs of meetings?
-That would involve the Pentagon and SAIC and they are all stonewalling me.
8. the maid, nothing much has been said about her, but she seems important. Did you interview her?
-Detectives Evan & Owens questioned her and ruled her out. She had an alibi and no motive.
9. Were there any signs the body was moved? It seems strange again to me that the nightstand light was on, but the bathroom was off...yet he was in the shower.
-There were no drag marks on the carpet.
10. Also, there was no sign of struggle, could he have been brought in from somewhere else other than the room itself?
-It was clear from the outset that he didn't have time to struggle.

I tried to get everyone's questions in there. we have some stuff ruled out now (like about her being out of the country) and we have some questions answered, mordred black)

Nice find. I hadn't even noticed the link in the picture, myself. xD

This one's sticking in my mind for some reason. Technically it's not a complete answer - depending on how strong our mover was, he could have been carried. Not sure how you'd check for that, though. It could be nothing, but it sticks in my mind.

I wonder what the "breakthrough" in his work was, that it kept him from going on vacation with his family? I'm looking forward to seeing the notes he has for us, maybe those will shed some light on something.

ok Irish terrorist

The Brighton hotel bombing happened on 12 October 1984 at the Grand Hotel in Brighton, England. The bomb was planted by Provisional Irish Republican Army (IRA)

Any connection you think

this was on the verus homepage: Conversation recorded and sent via SmartPhone to us by one of the Junior VI investigators. The operative was later found dead, stabbed in the back:

Mordred: Ahh...the prodigal son returns!
Soren: Let's get down to business...
M: By all means!
S: It turns out that fool you killed, one Edmund Fitzpatrick, was only a stand-in! A fake! Only the Feds know who the poor fellow really was.
M: [pause] That means he's still alive somewhere and could ID me!
S: Exactly.
M: We must make plans to smuggle me out of the country, maybe to the Caymans, until you discover where he is and deal with him.
S: I'll make all of the arrangements, Father.

So Eddy may still be alive

Did anyone send the link to Ms Artemis? She may have some insight.

.... my crazy conspiracy theory that he may be alive from a while back on the wiki might actually be true? xDD oh dear.

'The prodigal son returns' Have they been out of contact?

Where did you find this? I don't see it.

Either way, something tells me that we're not getting a response back from soren, lol.

Yeah, I have the same problem. I wonder if something would actually be going on there at that time if someone showed up. xD


We have a picture of Mr.Fitzpatrick!


Anyone see anything hidden in this one?

Here's the results of my interview with daniel. I asked the things you guys asked me to. Pretty much all info we already have now.

Also, I have an interview with helen. Think of any new things to ask her since we've moved on a bit from when I asked about daniel?

Quote:
Mary Ann -


1. Do you happen to remember why you were out of the country when your father was found?

We were on vacation in the bahamas, Dad was supposed to come along but he was too busy to go.


2. Did your mother say anything strange about your father before or after his death?

No. But, as you know, she left a huge legacy for us to hire an investigation into his death.


3. Did your mother or father act strange or different before his passing?

No. I was a kind of self-involved, but I was hit really hard by his death.


4. Do you remember anyone new coming around your family during the time?

Only Mr. Noir (my sister was creeped out by him!)


5. What did your mother pass away from and when?

I don't want to talk about that. What's that got to do with the investigation.


6. Did you happen to have met or heard a mention of a man named Mordred Black?
No.


I also have a couple of questions other detectives have asked about:
7. Were there any notes or items out of the ordinary you found in your fathers stuff?

The police searched through my father's papers. It was apparently fruitless.


8. Did your father ever say anything about what he was working on?

He just said "he was protecting America from the bad guys"


I hope this was helpful.

Noir = Black in French. I've found that according to Occam's Razor the simplest solution (regardless of what people say) is always right.



Good day sir

I am a junior investigator with Verus Investigations, my ID number is: 33756-8707

Are you aware that Modred Black is claiming the death of Mr. Fitzpatrick. One of our associates was murdered while tailing Mr. Black and his son Soren Black.

In your original investigation, were you aware of a gentleman with the obvious false nomenclature of Mr. Noir?

Mr. Noir is perhaps Slavic or Russian and was in contact with Mr. Fitzpatrick on several occasions at Mr. Fitzpatrick home.

I have verified this with Daniel Fitzpatrick in an Email.

Please if there is something you can remember it will be very helpful

well that clears up who Mr. Noir is
