It was just after ten in the morning. The investigation into Dash Jones’ death had been ongoing for less than five hours, Joseph Karlson had been back on the planet for just over an hour. He’d finally changed into a full suit, charcoal grey this time with no waistcoat. The double-breasted suit was tailor-made to fit his bulky, muscular figure. Joseph still hadn’t checked the file he’d gotten from the CIA yet, he didn’t want to color his view for this interview, he could always return for follow ups later, there was also the question of what had been going on earlier that morning but that would come later.

He left the elevator and was immediately stopped by Starfleet Security, he simply smiled and opened his jacket “Hold a moment son” He removed his personalized phaser from the shoulder strap, handing the curved sidearm to the Security, the young man widened his eyes at the weapon, the wooden handle always made weapon enthusiasts interested, it looked like something from an old Holo-adventure, more of a showpiece than a weapon. Joseph then reached behind him and pulled a hefty metallic object attached to his belt, the brass knuckles got another wide stare from the young man and a smile from Joseph. He’d picked a regular cane this time and carried no other weapons but he told them to pat him down and scan him anyway. He approved of the measures taken even within the Government tower “I’ll be wanting those back, son” He said giving the young man a wink.

After the search, he made his way to the Lieutenant Governor’s office, he hadn’t called up to let her know he was coming but he had sent a message to his counterpart in Starfleet Security and CC’d General Harris that this was official police business and not a meeting between Cabinet members. He walked up to the secretary and cleared his throat “Please inform the Lieutenant Governor that Commissioner Karlson is here to speak with her” It may be a breach of protocol to arrive with no notice but that was necessary for initial interviews in his opinion. He did come alone out of respect for the office, leaving Pangolin to twiddle his thumbs in his precinct.

Commissioner Karlson
OOC: I’m working under the assumption that Dasca would be in her office as this is just shortly after the Cabinet meeting ends. - hjortur
