Three Is a Crowd

by John Killick

At 11:06pm on Saturday, March 21, 2013, the emergency despatch in a certain large city received a call from an agitated, clearly terrified individual who identified himself as Justin Murchison, 24, entry-level employee at a large brokerage firm in that same city. He was reporting an emergency in another city, saying that he feared that his grirlfriend, Rosanna Michaels, had been hurt or worse. After calming Mr. Murchison enough to ascertain Ms. Michaels\\' address, the emergency dispatcher alerted police in the city where Ms. Michaels was resident. When they arrived at her address, they found the said Ms. Michaels dead, seated in front of a lap-top computer, a look of petrified terror frozen on her face.

Questioning of Mr. Murchison revealed that he had been communicating with the deceased via an internet chat software when Ms. Michaels had died. Ge was too distraught and terrified to give a coherent account of what had transpired, but police investigators found his chat transcripts. They are published below, unaltered or abridged. Discretion is advised for sensitive or faint-hearted readers.

The Medical Report on Ms. Michaels estimates that death occurred at or around 11pm. Cause of death was cardiac arrest, probably due to sudden, extreme shock, There were no marks of violence on the body. The police attempted to trace the IP of the third participant(s) in the chat, but there was no record of any such users ever registering for either service, and bizarrely, the IPU for all posts was utterly untracable, even with the most sophisticated anti-hacker systems the police had access to. The acse remains open and police ask all internet users to excercise caution and to report any harrassment or intrusion immediately
