Wrong lady

Photo of the Day: I love the expression on rookie Detective Jonathan Hill when he realizes he was wrong about the potential identity of the dead woman on the gurney in front of him. This was very early one morning in February, and Hill was investigating a police-involved shooting that had left a woman dead.
Hill and other detectives believed the dead woman was the lease-holder of an apartment in Bladensburg. To confirm this identification, the detectives visited the morgue at Prince George's County Hospital. Trasee L Cosby, an investigator for the medical examiner standing to Hill's left, has just unzipped the body bag, and the detective is frowning because the driver's license photo of the lease-holder does not match the face of the corpse.
Thus, the body to the medical examiner as a "Jane Doe," leading one of the detectives -- I shit you not -- to start singing "Do Re Mi" from the "Sound of Music." You can check out the book here: http://amzn.to/142MfoY
