LOCATION OF INTERVIEW: HIGHLAND PARK HIGH SCHOOL
TIME COMMENCED: 11:23 AM
Detective Brandon: How long have you known Caitlyn?
Student 1: Couple years.
Detective Brandon: How would you describe her?
Student 1: Pretty, popular, stuck up.
Detective Brandon: Stuck up?
Student 1: You could tell she thought she was better than everyone else.
Detective Brandon: How so?
Student 1: Just by the way she carried herself, and how she was too good to get close to anyone.
Detective Brandon: Too good to get close to anyone? So are you saying she didn't have a lot of friends?
Student 1: Just Emily really. I don't know why though. That girl is a slut. Complete opposite of Caitlyn. She was a total prude.
Detective Brandon: How do you know?
Student 1: How do I know she was a prude? Because she was.
Detective Brandon: Are you speaking from a personal experience?
Student 1: No.
Detective Brandon: Then how do you know?
Student 1: That's what everyone said.
Detective Brandon: I see. Did she have any enemies?
Student 1: Enemies? Nah, but just about every girl in school was jealous of her and you know how crazy girls can get when they're jealous. There's nothing scarier than a girl green with envy. If I were you, I'd be looking for a female suspect. High school bitches be craaaazaaay.

Detective Brandon: How long have you known Caitlyn?
Student 2: Three years.
Detective Brandon: How would you describe her?
Student 2: Gorgeous, approachable yet unapproachable, wicked smart, but not just book smart. She was...what's the word...clever. I watched her hand Jacob Mullarkey his ass once in the hallway.
Detective Brandon: Hand him his ass?
Student 2: Yeah, he tried to lift up her skirt as she was walking by and she ripped him a new one. Flat out humiliated him in front of an entire hallway of students. He didn't even know how to respond. It was awesome.
Detective Brandon: So she was the kind of girl who didn't take shit from anyone? The kind that would defend herself?
Student 2: Yeah, you could say that. Not many people would have the balls to say something like that to Jacob Mullarkey.
Detective Martinez: You keep saying his first and last name. Is he some sort of celebrity or something?
Student 2: Ha! No, just a punk who thought he could get any girl he wanted. Hey, is this interview going to be published, like in the newspaper or a magazine or something?
