Case Study: The Cyber-Samantha Mystery By Dr. Bruce Forciea Case Study: The Cyber-Samantha Mystery (from discussion 5) By Dr. Bruce Forciea Background A police officer held open the front door to Samantha's house while detective Jones entered and proceeded through the living room to the stairs leading to the basement. "She was found this way by her son this morning," said the officer. "The son said he tried to contact her over the past 3 days and became worried, so he stopped by to check on her on his way to work." Samantha's body lay on the floor face down with both arms sprawled in front of her as if to break the fall. A small pool of blood encircled her head. "I'm so sorry for your loss Mr. Alvarez, but I will need to ask some questions,” said detective Jones to Samantha's son. "Sure, whatever I can do to help,” said Samantha's son. "Did your mother have any health issues that could affect her balance?" said detective Jones while opening his notepad. "She had a bad case of the flu," said the son. "I think she's had it for about a week." "Do you know who her doctor is? We need to get her medical records," said detective Jones. "Yes, it's Dr. Jane Simon. She has been seeing her for years, but I think she went to urgent care for this flu." "We'd like to get your permission to do an autopsy to rule out foul play along with getting her medical records. I'll get the forms to you,” said detective Jones." Yes, of course," said the son, “I want to find out what happened."
