Criminal Investigation Assignment

On Thursday, October 6th, 2016, at 10:37 a.m., I, Officer Imran Hassan, was dispatched to Garage C located in Pipe street to investigate the murder of a young college student named Mark Smith. Arrival at the scene, the items of the victims lay two feet from his body. The items include a gray school backpack, his brown shoes, and a jacket. The victim has multiple stab wounds and seems to have bled to death. The victim’s lifeless body laid on the floor face down. There was a stream of blood running down from the victim to his belongings. The victim has dark brown hair and was wearing black jeans, a shirt with black and white stripes.

I, the coroner Imran Hassan was on duty and performed the examination on Mark Smith. The first thing I noticed was that Mark's body was covered with blood. This indicates that Mark bled to death. There are seven stabs. Three in his back, two in his stomach and one in his neck and one in the chest. The victim is about 21 years old.

There was more blood on the repeated stabs which is another evidence of repeated stabbing. The victim's stabs seem to indicate that he was murdered because most of the stabs are located in his back and neck. Mark did not only die because of loss of blood. He also died because of the stab on his chest. After examining Mark Smith’s body, I come to a conclusion that he was indeed murdered. He was a healthy 21-year-old. Most of the tests came out negative and did not have any health issues. The cause of his death was the stabs especially the ones in his chest which is one that put him in critical condition.

I have known Mark Smith for seven years now. We went to the same High School and currently College and we have become really close friends. I still remember the day we met, I was new to the school and he was the only welcoming person I met. He would smile to everyone and be able to put anyone at ease. His kindness is what made him a great person. The event that occurred on Thursday, October sixth is one that I will never forget. My best friend was taken from us in a violent way. It hurts me that something so tragic happened to him and is no longer here with us but today we celebrate his life. We celebrate Mark, the amazing friend, son, and student. He was always there for everyone and put others needs before his. He worked really hard in everything he did and was really looking forward to achieving his goal which was to go to medical school and become a doctor. He always wanted to help others and becoming a doctor was a way for him to help others. He was the definition of kindness and was appreciated by all of us. In high school, he would bring everyone together because he did not want anyone to be left out. That's the kind of person he was; a caring loving human being. I am really grateful that I met you and had the chance spend time with you. I will forever cherish the memories we shared. Though you are gone too soon you lived your life wonderfully and touched all of our hearts. You will never be
