North American Gunslinger Detective

Chapter 571 Psychotherapy

Hank lowered his head and didn't answer, and he looked even more depressed, but his performance already showed that Jimmy's guess was right.

As for kleptomania, Jimmy only learned it when he was in Quantic Academy of Sciences, but the instructor at that time only briefly mentioned that such theft cases have nothing to do with the FBI, and belong to the scope of police management.

Kleptomania is a psychological problem. Jimmy is definitely unprofessional in this area, but he has friends, so he can ask them later. The key now is to solve the current problem first.

Jimmy: "Hank, what's going on now? Where's Mary?"

Hank: "I was temporarily detained in the interrogation room, and the store manager also came over. I just offered compensation, but he refused."

Jimmy frowned: "What's the matter? That necklace is very expensive?"

Hank: "No, it's just over 100 bucks, but the manager didn't know why he didn't agree to a settlement."

Jimmy thought for a while and said, "I'm not familiar with NYPD here. I'll ask someone to come over and help. Just wait for me."

Jimmy stepped aside, took out his mobile phone and called Nia, "Nia, do you have any acquaintances here at the Seventh Precinct?"

Nia: "What's wrong?"

Jimmy: "My friend's wife stole a $100-plus necklace because of kleptomania, and now the store manager doesn't seem to want to reconcile at all."

Nia: "I'll come over, Seventh Precinct, right? Wait for me."

Jimmy: "Alright."

Jimmy turned his head and glanced at Hank's position. He was still sitting there with his head bowed in frustration. It could be seen that he had left Albuquerque. He should have no one else to turn to in New York.

It's just a theft case, so there shouldn't be any trouble in theory. Wait for Nia to come over to find out the situation. If it's not troublesome, just help him deal with it.With Kevin's support behind her, Nia should have no problem handling such trivial matters.

Jimmy called Steven again, "Steven, I found Hank."

Steven: "Great, how is he? What happened?"

Jimmy: "We'll have to wait until we know the details. I'm just telling you that he's safe. He's fine."

Steven: "Okay, thank you. If you can help, please try to help him deal with it."

Jimmy: "Well, don't worry, that's it for now."

After waiting for a while, Nia and Chuck came over together. Jimmy was very surprised. Didn't Chuck let Nia form a team alone?Why are you together again?

Jimmy took two steps, first hugged Nia, and then shook hands with Chuck, "Chuck, why are you here?"

Chuck smiled and said, "If I don't come, you will be in trouble today."

Jimmy frowned and looked at him: "Is there something inside?"

Chuck nodded: "Don't worry, I know the situation, let me handle it. Let's go and meet your friend."

Jimmy took Nia and Chuck to Hank, "Hank, this is Detective Chuck, this is my fiancee Nia, tell Chuck about you, he is more familiar with people here in NYPD. "

Hank stood up and reached out to shake hands with Chuck and Nia, "DEA senior agent Hank Schrader, from New Mexico."

Hank looked around, and several people came to the corner, "My wife and I came to New York for vacation. My wife took a necklace in a store this morning and didn't check out. She was stopped by security when she was leaving the store and called the police. I was waiting for her outside, but I went in when I saw something happened, and then followed the police to the police station."

Chuck: "Have you talked to anyone at the store?"

Hank frowned and nodded, "They don't agree to a settlement."

Chuck: "Well, I understand, you wait here. Nia, come with me."

Nia patted Jimmy and followed Chuck to the other side of the police station.

Hank kept his eyes on Chuck and Nia. Jimmy came over and patted him on the shoulder, "Don't worry, Chuck is an old police detective. He is very familiar with NYPD affairs, and he can definitely handle it."

I thought it would be soon, but after more than half an hour, Chuck and Nia walked over with a brown-haired woman.Hank kept looking over there, and when he saw the woman following behind, he immediately walked over quickly, "Mary, how are you?"

Mary hugged Hank, weeping softly, the two were talking in a low voice, Jimmy was far away, so he didn't hear.

Chuck and Nia did not stay by their side, but came directly to Jimmy, "The matter is settled, but there is still a need to make up the formalities. Let's talk about it together when they calm down."

Hank and Mary walked over after a few words, and Hank hugged Jimmy, "Thank you, Jimmy, thank you."

Jimmy patted Hank, "Don't be so polite, well, it's not over yet. Chuck."

Chuck nodded: "You need to prepare a psychological evaluation report for today. It would be best if you have previous treatment records."

Hank: "Must it be provided? You need to contact someone in Albuquerque."

Chuck: "Yes, settlement records are required."

Hank: "Okay, I'll go get in touch and see if I can find a psychologist."

Jimmy: "Let me find it. But let's get out of here first."

Jimmy and his group left the police station. Nia and Chuck returned to the police station. Jimmy didn't ask Nia how they dealt with it.

Jimmy contacted Dr. Mary, and he didn't realize until he was on the phone, man, he knows a lot of people named Mary.

Dr. Mary answered the phone and asked them to go there after 2 pm after listening to Jimmy's words, just to have a lunch break at noon.

Jimmy took Hank and Mary to the downstairs of Dr. Mary's studio, and said as he walked up, "Dr. Mary is a cooperative psychologist in the Manhattan Office of the FBI, a real senior expert, and listen to her arrangements later."

Hank: "Don't worry, I understand."

Hank's wife, Mary Schrader, was very quiet today, and she didn't know if she was frightened.

Dr. Mary Walter received Jimmy and the others, and Jimmy just introduced to Mary, then took Hank out of the office and came to the fire escape to smoke, leaving Mary Schrader behind.

After waiting for a long time, the two Marys finally ended their conversation. Hank was called over to contact the psychiatrist in Albuquerque and fax a copy of Mary Schrader's medical records.

Taking advantage of the waiting time, Jimmy also took Dr. Mary Walter to the side, and got a general understanding of what kleptomaniac was all about.

From an academic point of view, kleptomania is a mental health disorder, an impulse control disorder, a disorder involving emotional or behavioral self-control problems.

This results in the patient's irresistible urge to steal, manifested in repeated, irresistible urges to steal items that are not usually really needed.Often the stolen items are of little value and are well within the purchasable range.

Kleptomania is uncommon, but it is a serious condition that can cause a great deal of emotional pain and even legal problems if left untreated.

People with this disorder often have a very, very strong desire and urge to steal something that they can't control, even when they know it's wrong and illegal.

The cause of kleptomania is not easy to determine. The most common speculations are the following: a family history of kleptomania may increase the risk of kleptomania, and having other impulse control disorders such as anxiety, depression, or drug abuse may also increase the risk of kleptomania. disease probability.

The current data is not perfect, and since the cause of this mental illness is still uncertain, there is no way to prevent and 100% cure it.

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and medication such as antidepressants may help end the cycle of compulsive theft.

Dr. Mary is a professional, knowing that Jimmy just wanted to understand, so he didn't say anything too profound, just explained it roughly, and then turned to look at Hank and his wife who were guarding by the fax machine.

Dr. Mary: "There is something wrong with her. When we chatted just now, it can be seen that she is actually quite normal, which means that the previous treatment is effective. This time it must be stimulated by something, and the kleptomania will relapse."

Jimmy: "What are the possibilities?"

Dr. Mary: "She should not be taking antidepressant drugs. In addition, something should have happened before the stealing action, which caused her to have impulsive desires. It may have happened before entering the store, or it may have happened in the store. It happened when the product was in use.”

Jimmy: "In other words, as long as she is not stimulated, she is actually quite normal, right?"

Dr. Mary: "Yes, her mental state is not bad, but she was a little frightened. It seems that the experience of going to the police station in the morning was not very good."

Jimmy: "Okay, you can just give a report. This is my friend's friend, and it's just a help. It's not necessary."

Mary nodded, she knew what Jimmy meant when he said it was unnecessary, and just deal with it normally.

After receiving the faxed diagnosis records, Mary was busy with the report, while Jimmy sat on the sofa with Hank and his wife drinking tea.Jimmy comes here to drink tea, so although Mary didn't make tea, he can make tea himself, and Dr. Mary won't have any opinions.

After getting the printed report, Mary signed it and handed it to Hank. After thanking Hank, he swiped his card to pay, and took Mary with the report and left the studio.Jimmy didn't leave, but stayed and chatted with Dr. Mary for a while before leaving and returning to the FBI office.

Hank and the others had told Jimmy at noon that they would pack up and return to Albuquerque after sending the report to the police station. Jimmy originally wanted to deliver it, but they declined.

When something like this happened, Jimmy could also understand their feelings. No one expected to change from a vacation to a police station. They must not be in the mood to continue traveling now. It would be better to go home and have a good rest.

Hank invited Jimmy to go to Albuquerque if he had time, and Jimmy nodded and agreed. Steven also wants to contact him, and he can go there if he has time, as long as he has time.

Speaking of which, the gap between the DEA and the FBI is really big. I only found out during the chat at noon that Hank was not familiar with anyone from the New York branch of the DEA. member.

Such a sudden incident made Jimmy walk outside almost all day, but he was fine now, so it was not a waste of time.

I went back to the office to say hello to Isabel, and Jimmy continued to return to his place to start designing activities. At least one of the two difficult tasks given by Kevin had to be done by himself. As for the policy support in the bureau, there is really no way .
-
Jimmy has been contemplating his own affairs for several days, and Hughes and Peter have not stopped their investigation.

Through a key evidence, Peter and Neil analyzed that the key was not unlocked, but a miniature model of the building. According to the shape of the key, they found the location of the box hiding the evidence. It was in the Empire State Building, but the specific location of the hiding It has not been determined yet, and we need to continue to search for verification.

Hughes still couldn't swallow this breath. After being kicked out by the FBI headquarters, he contacted his acquaintances in the NSA to help monitor his office phone in the bureau. It was just a whim to find out how the supervisor who came later arranged the arrangement, but unexpectedly found a new The supervisor who came, Amanda Callaway, got information about evidence hiding from Peter and their conversation, and called Senator Platt.

This was really a surprise. Hughes thought about it after getting the phone recording in the USB flash drive from his friend, and decided to give it to Peter to let him have a mental preparation.

When Hughes and Peter heard the content of the phone call in the restaurant, Peter was in a bad mood. The new director, Callaway, not only stopped all investigations against Senator Platt in the bureau, but even the results of their private investigations They all notified the senators. This is troublesome. Everyone knows that the black material evidence is in the Empire State Building. It depends on who can get the evidence first.

Moreover, this call record also shows Director Callaway's position. She is the nail that Senator Platt installed in the FBI's Manhattan office. She is here to mess up the deployment here and make Senator Platt out of danger.

Now that Callaway has just arrived in office, it is time for her to stand up, and Peter and the others have to temporarily avoid the edge and be honest for a few days.However, Neil and the others still gained something. Through analysis, it was finally determined that the evidence was on the [-]th floor. The rest was to find a way to get a scanner to scan the ceiling and floor to determine the specific location, and then dug it out.

There is one thing to say, Neil and his group of criminals are all geniuses when it comes to this kind of sneaky thing. They actually successfully used the cleaner's scrubber to put the scanner in, and then put it on the floor of the 50th floor. Found the box.

However, because the scanner was borrowed by the FBI, the technicians of the FBI recovered the data in the scanner and successfully obtained the location, which allowed Callaway to notify Senator Platt, and all the relevant people unexpectedly simultaneously Arrived at the corresponding floor of the Empire State Building.
