Session 1 - Pilot
Middle of the day.
Starting in Frederick Douglass High, an impromptu meeting between the teachers and principal sprung up about a student, though not initially surprising. Jeremiah Williams, a middling student with possible gang involvement, didn't show up for any of his detentions over the weekend, nor did he show up on the previous Friday. The standout, and worrying, circumstance involves the Vice Principal, who discovered that the family had been evicted from their home and had been living in a hotel. It also came to light that Jeremiah hadn't been living with them for months. Jeremiah's family wasn't concerned, and, when he didn't show up again on Monday, the school decided to file a missing persons report. Derrick was informed that he should expect the police to come in and question him within the next day or so, and that a substitute would be provided if it was during class time throughout the day.
Later that day, during one of Derrick's P.E. classes, the Baltimore P.D. stopped by for some questioning, led by a mountain of a man named Officer Wallard. Derrick explained what little he knew about Jeremiah, including the falling out between him and his good friend Derek(nickname Boogey), before remembering that a classmate of his, by the name of Victor(nickname Vic), was the last person to get in a fight with him. After catching Vic in a few lies, he admitted that he was a supplier of marijuana to Jeremiah, and that Jeremiah owed him around $200 dollars. They got in a fight when Vic went to collect, but Vic didn't think anything more intense was necessary. Vic eventually gave Wallard and his partner the address that Jeremiah typically dropped off his supply. Vic mentioned the small-time gang "267ers" that Jeremiah supposedly ran with. Vic also backed up the claim that Boogey no longer associated himself with Jeremiah. Vic had nothing left to say, so Derrick dismissed him back to gym class.
The Vice Principal eventually rejoined Officer Wallard and Derrick, with Boogey in tow. Boogey is a particularly scrawny kid, almost looking like a middle schooler. Boogey initially said that he didn't know where Jeremiah was, but, upon being questioned by Wallard, immediately changed emotionally to a mix between anger and sadness. He didn't approve of Jeremiah's involvement with drugs. Boogey had confronted Jeremiah with it, but Jeremiah responded that he had to. Jeremiah didn't like that Boogey believed it to be a cop-out and ended the relationship. Boogey mentioned that Jeremiah didn't sell on 267er territory, but sold to isolated people, as the gang didn't take kindly to profits being infringed on. He also said that Jeremiah would sleep in the Boiler room under the school when he couldn't find anywhere else to stay. Boogey was dismissed after satisfactorily answering Wallard's questions. Before the Vice Principal could lead the officers to the basement, he had to respond to a fight elsewhere in the building. Derrick guided them down there instead. After looking around the room, they found evidence of someone staying there, as well as a slip of paper with a phone number on the front with the initials "T.C." on the back. Wallard slipped it into an evidence bag before Derrick could note it down himself. Derrick caught the last four digits, but nothing else. However, he did spot a particularly noteworthy bandanna. It was a striking blue color, not one that would be common in a store. the color was indicative of the 267s. Derrick pointed it out to Wallard, who gathered it for evidence as well. Blakely also found a pamphlet for a church known as the First Unitarian, as well as a homeless shelter that they run nearby. Feeling that they've gained all of the information available at the school, the officers decide to move on to look into the First Unitarian church. Wallard gave Derrick his card, just in case any new information were to come to light with Jeremiah. Derrick, wanting to press his luck, asked Blakely for her number as well. She, being taken aback by the request, obliged and gave him her card as well, which also contained her personal cellphone number. Derrick thanked her, and the officers went on their way.
