Sam smiled. 'I think I was the ex, Keith. I think he once found that note or something, then used it to frame Victoria for this murder on that poor boy. Then, why would that boy write Victoria's gonna die? I guess it may just have been something 'innocent', maybe something he wrote to a classmate of his or something, or maybe because he had some sort of relation with Victoria and he may not have wanted that. So I think Keith did it, he purchased those spiders, and wanted to frame Victoria for it. What do you think?'

"All the evidence says you're right, Sam. But now I'm confused about this CD." Brian frowned, and looked down at the disk.

Rhia frowned. Did she overlook something on the CD? Well, she wasn't that expert in such computer things, but when she had opened the file back in the car all she had found was the "contract" about their split... She shook her head.
"What else is on the CD?" She asked curiously trying not to look too confused.

Brian handed over the printed pages. "There was a bunch of stolen medical information on Duncan on the CD. This CD was found at the scene after someone chased a suspect, apparently. So, either someone is expertly framing the ex, or the ex was stupid enough to carry this CD around with him... or... something I haven't thought of yet."

"...or he lost it when he wanted to destroy evidence..." Rhia added a thought of her own.
"Why on earth would they need the medical information? And how did they get it, anyway?" Her thoughts were spinning around in her head violently. She turned to Luke.
"Have you already asked them about the CD?"

Sam heard what the others said. That CD... there was something going on, that was for sure, since the boy had been killed. Two potential suspects, both seemed to try to frame the other. IF they were trying to do that. And whoever had used the info on the CD, no one seemed to know who of both suspects might have done it. Even though she herself thought of Keith. So, who had used that info? 'Who has used that info?' she echoed her thoughts out loud, without knowing she was echoing her thoughts out loud.

"This CD proves that SOMEONE stole private medical information of a minor, and that they knew how that Duncan would go into anaphylactic shock from a tarantula bite." Brian listened to Sam's question, and replied, finally glad there was a way to decide once and for all just who the CD belonged to. "Bring me their computers. It's a simple matter of looking at the history of their computer activity -- a more modern version of Cinderella's glass slipper!"
Brian knew the technical details would bore them, but it was easy at this point. He hoped they would be allowed to stall the suspects long enough to get a warrant and examine the computers.

Luke nodded. "We'll need those computers to see who got this information. My money is still on Keith, but...He admitted being the near the house, but told us to ask Victoria about it... Maybe she asked him to go back and take the CD. Not so smart that he lost it.. I still have some unfinished conversation with Mrs. Lester. I'll get back to her, anyone wanna come with?"

"I'll go," Lindsay offered. She hadn't had much to do in this case, so she was more than willing to take the opportunity.

In the meantime Rhia grabbed her mobile and dialled the number of the judge. When he answered she explained everything and asked for a search warrant for Keith Lester's house. To search Victoria's would be much easier because hers was still a crime scene... At first the judge didn't seem to keen on giving her one, but Rhia explained and finally convinced him.
"You better are right!" he grumbled as good-bye. Rhia's eyes started to shine. "So who will come to Keith's house with me?"
She asked the others not looking at one in particular.

Mrs. Lester coughed: "Could I have another glass of water, please?"" "If you answer our questions first." "What? That's just cruel." "Yeah, more things are. Did you ask Keith to take away evidence from the crime scene?" "I don't know what you're talking about", Victoria asked. "The one with information about Duncan's health records. I doubt that you got that information at school...?"

Sam glanced at her watch and swore. 'I wish I could, Rhia, but I'm late for a course I'm taking' She knew Rhia was curious what course. 'forensic psychology' she said, before Rhia could ask it. 'But I have to go now. See you later'

"So I'm his teacher," Victoria said. "Doesn't mean I did anything. And I still don't know what records you're talking about." "The one's that showed that he was allergic to spiders," Lindsay told her. "What? I thought everyone knew that. The kids joked around about one day in science class when the teacher brought in some kind of spider. Duncan wouldn't go near it."

Rhia looked smilingly at Sam. "Well...have fun! Looks like I've gotta go alone..."
She felt a bit uncomfortable, but felt really nice for Sam to take an additional course. So, she took out her car keys and off she went. After picking up the warrant at court, she first drove to Victoria's home. Shivering she got out, watching her surroundings closely. Calm down... Keith is in the Crimelab, silly! Rhia tried to shake off bad thoughts and entered the house. In the living room she found a laptop. She confiscated it and put it on the passenger's seat. After a short time she entered Keith's house. It was very messy...everywhere there were things lying around. She found two laptops and three computers. Sighing she took the laptops first and brought then the hard drives to her car.
"Well...it's been easier than I thought..." Rhia said to herself as she pulled her car into a free space at the lab. She went in and knocked at the doorfram of Brian's office.
"Could you lend me a hand?" With a sheepish smile she turned around and returned to her car again.

Brian finished clearing space for the evidence, and went out to Rhia's car. A determined grin crept onto his face when he saw all the computers. "Now this is more like it!" He grunted as he carried an armful back to his desk. Brian began plugging the computers in, and immediately made copies of each hard drive. "Thank you very much, Rhia. We will soon see just how important this evidence is!" Brian exclaimed.
Brian had to wait a while for the copies to finish -- but it was a very important step where sensitive digital data was concerned. He got to work, his fingers flying across the keyboards making that "clickity" sound he loved.
If anyone had been watching him, they would have noticed his keystrokes becoming more forceful, and a confused look worked its way into his face. They would have noticed that he was having a hard time making sense of everything he had found. They would have seen him stop and fold his arms across his chest in frustration, and hear him heave a deep sigh.
"This doesn't make sense," Brian mumbled. "Unless..."
He looked at Rhia, who had been wandering around near the lab playing with various tools while she waited for Brian to work. "Rhia," he called across the room, "Is Victoria allergic to tarantulas, too? According to the computer history, Keith had been stealing medical information on Victoria, and Victoria had been stealing information on Duncan... but I've got a terrible feeling those spiders weren't meant for Duncan," Brian finished his theory, his voice solemn.
He could only pray that Rhia could get to Luke in time. If Keith and Victoria had worked out a story beforehand, this would never hold up in court!
