>From the Seattle notes, the same weapon was used for
all the killings there, the notes from the first case
in Gotham leads Connolly to believe that the same
weapon was being used, the results for the second
aren't in yet - it was too soon.  But they all pointed
to a common Chef's knife as the weapon.

Connolly rubbed his eyes, it was getting late and he
still had to catch this guy.  He was going to need
rest and who knows when he would strike again. 
Picking up the phone, he called directory assistance
and asked for the number for Gotham Legal Services and
jotting it on his pad next to Mara Ravenclaw's name,
he called.  After the answering maching picked up he
said, "Ms. Ravenclaw, this is Detective Connolly of
the Gotham PD Homicide squad.  I would like to talk to
you regarding the case I am working on.  Thank You." 
After leaving the non-emergency number for the
precinct, he hung up.  Looking up at the clock, he
noted that his shift was over, he headed home for some
sleep.
