CSI NEW YORK: ACCIDENT OR LABOUR RISK MISTAKE

CSI New York searching in the river

Carolina Bean was a happy woman. She was in New York, where she arrived before Christmas, with her family. Although she hadn't accompanied them in the last trips around the city, she felt they were closer to her. She had explained to The Grandma that she wanted to stay some days visiting Central Park to take pictures and sceneries for her new graphic novel. The Grandma accepted the proposal because she knew how important her job was for Carol.

It seemed a normal day except for one fact: nobody had sent her a WhatsApp the last 48 hours and she hadn't seen them because she arrived to the hotel too late and she left it too early. Suddenly, the telephone rang:

-Hi! It's Carol Bean. Who's calling?

-Good morning, Mrs. Bean. I'm CSI Stella Bonasera from the New York Office. I would like to talk to you. It's about your family.

-My family! What happens? Are they ok?

-Don't worry, Mrs. Bean. They're fine. They are in the Mount Sinai Hospital waiting for your arrival to do the papers. Don't worry. I've phoned you because my partners, Mac Taylor and Don Flack, are going to take you in Central Park and carry you to the hospital.

-Wow! Ok. I'm astonished. I know where the hospital is. If you don't mind, I will come by public transport. I want to stay alone before visiting my family.

-Ok Mrs. Bean. See you later in the hospital then, but if you need something, please, don't doubt to phone us.

-Thanks, Detective Bonasera. See you later.

Flack and Bonasera searching Nereyda Bean

CSI Stella Bonasera was one of the best members of the CSI New York Team. She was working in the case of the mysterious sinking in Liberty Island. They hadn't got enough answers to know what happened exactly in that boat and what the real cause of the tragedy was. 

They had revised all the protocols of labour risk prevention and the boat has passed all the legal controls. The technicians hadn't got any explanation about the origin of the accident. The boat has a great hole on the right side but they hadn't discovered what caused that hole.

Thanks to the work of Lt. Theo Kojak and the CSI Team, the most part of the victims had been rescued, except one. They had identified the name of the missing woman. She was Nereyda Bean, a young dark-skin woman with long black hair who wore air hostess uniform the last time that someone saw her. They were searching in the main places of the river paying attention to the flow.

If Nereyda Bean didn't appear in the next 48 hours they would call the FBI because the possibilities of finding her in another state, because of the force of the flow, were higher.

Carolina Bean had arrived to the Mount Sinai Hospital. She was ready to identified every member of her family and taking profit of the visit she was going to try to meet one of the best cardiologist of the world who works in this hospital: Doctor Valentí Fuster Carulla.

There are four kinds of people in the world: 

those who make things change;

those who aim to ensure that things do not change; 

those who watch how things change 

and those who wonder at what point things changed.
