Description[]
Personality[]
- Looking at the decor of Deena’s room - which included a poster of Mavis Freestone - Eve got the feeling Deena had been a young sixteen;[4] possibly naïve.[5] Young and innocent for her age but mature and responsible.[6]
- A sweet, smart kid;[7] tidy, shy (and shy around boys), idealistic, and serious about education.[8]
- She had a deep respect for her body, her health, and was very aware of nutrition. She worked out six days a week - yoga, jogging, resistance training - and knew self-defense.[9]
- She ran in Central Park on the weekends and the same on weekdays, when she didn’t have school.[10]
History[]
- Four or five years ago, when Deena was eleven or twelve, the police did a public service thing at the schools; Deena MacMasters was Peabody’s liaison - student guide - at the school. Last year, Deena contacted Peabody for help with a report on Free-Agers.[7]
Homicide Information[]
- TOD: 3:26 a.m. (0326)[7]
- She was Darrin Pauley’s first victim in Kindred in Death.[11]
- Her body was discovered (at 8:32 a.m., Sunday morning) by her parents when they returned home after a weekend away.[12] The locks were activated when she was found though the cameras had been deactivated and the discs for the last two days were removed.[1]
- She was violently, and repeatedly, raped and sodomized, after being bound with sheets, around her feet to the footboard, and police restraints binding her hands behind her back.[13] Her clothes were not removed, but pulled out of the way.[14]
- She had bruises and raw marks on her ankles and thighs; bruising and lacerations on her wrists; bruising on the face and neck, indicating manual strangulation; she bit her lip, deeply. She was tortured - choke, smother, rape, choke, smother, rape.[15] He worked her for about six to eight hours.[16]
- She had been drugged twice with barbiturates: at about 1830 (6:30 PM) and again at midnight.[17] A glass, with traces of drugs, was left on the kitchen counter;[18] it contained Wig.[19]
- No hairs or trace were found on scene or on the body. He sealed up and, possibly, shaved his body.[20]
- The house locks were disengaged, then immediately re-engaged at 18:23 (6:23 p.m.) from the inside; at 2318 (11:18 p.m.) the door to the control room was opened, with passcode, and the cameras disengaged with proper procedure.[21]
- He didn’t have the proper codes to remove the discs, so he had to hack that; the discs were removed at 2331 (11:31 p.m.). The house locks were reset at oh-four-three (4:30 a.m.).[22]
- Her purse, PPC, ’link, and journal were missing.[23]
- In Deena’s room, Eve found a disc, audio and video, labeled “Happy Mix 4 Deena” with the initials DP and DM inside a heart. Additions to the file on the disc were made at 2:30 a.m. and another, just after 3:00 a.m.[24]
- It was a video of Deena, bruised, torn, and bloody; she, under duress, said everything was her father’s fault, that she’d never forgive him, that she hated him, that they wouldn’t know why, but what was done to her was payback. She asked for help, and why no one would help her. Afterward, a funeral dirge played as the camera panned over her, dead; text appeared on screen that blamed Jonah for Deena’s death and finished with an audio of her screams.[25]
- The disc copy was labeled H-23901.[26]
- Deena was murdered by Darrin Pauley.[27]
