"The Legal Department of Hodge Endeavor may be protecting their real identities, but it doesn't mean you can't simply interview them."

 

(Excerpt Alma Introduction)

 

This gave Griggori an idea and he turned to Julia with a hopeful expression.

            "What about their daughter... this Lucia Grace Sabre...was a birth certificate created for her?"

            "Da," she nodded.  "But like her father, there are no medical records for her with any of the hospitals in Alaska or the rest of the US."

            "Where was she born?" he quizzed.

            She wandered back to her computer and pressed in a few commands before announcing, "It was a home birth, at their address on Lokoti Tribal Lands, overseen by the tribe's Medicine Man."

            "Well, he would have medical scans or blood work for the family," he brightened.

            "Again, we would need a subpoena to get that information," she said unhappily.  "What would we say to your Lieutenant to get him to issue the order?"

            He deflated in a defeated manner by bending over his computer and covering his face with his hands.

            "If only we could scan this Declan and Bianca Sabre and then we would have the evidence we need to solve this case," he sighed.

            Julia opened her mouth to say something but then she hesitated and closed it again.

            "What?" he noticed.  "What were you going to say?"

            "The Legal Department of Hodge Endeavor may be protecting their real identities, but it doesn't mean you can't simply interview them."

            "It doesn't?"

            "You've talked to numerous witnesses at the nightclubs the murders happened," she drawled.  "They all described a huge, hairless, mutant, albino grizzly.  So why not talk to another witness who's seen the same thing?"
