Authors note. I met a female police detective at a local convention, and we had a few drinks at the bar, well after a few more drinks I really just wanted to get in her pants (big surprise) but I had to settle for this story she told me instead.
You may want to read part 1 first, as Ch 2 picks up right where part one ended.

Trisha and I spent the rest of the morning talking, it was really nice to finally make a friend, she told me everything about herself that morning, while I had to make up a life story, basically I told her I felt alone in the world, which at times in this job I did.
I managed to go to the nursing home, were I worked a couple hours a day, and every other weekend. It was kind of a sad place to be, as basically I spent my time with people who were in their last days among us. One thing it did do was give me newfound respect for the nurses and doctors who did their jobs day in and day out.
After work I went for a jog around 9 pm, my mind kept replaying today's events, over and over. I was definitely glad it was over, but I also knew my assignment was far from over. I was just about back at the campus when all of a sudden a white van almost hit me as it screeched to a stop, the door flung open and I was violently pulled inside.
"What the fuck, let me go mother fuckers!" I screamed.
"Wow nice language detective!" A voice hissed.
Suddenly I heard the van fill with familiar laughter. I looked up to see my boss and another man smiling down on me. My boss was a 50ish balding man who sported a huge beer belly or maybe it was from one to many jelly donuts, and his partner was a 40'ish guy who wasn't in much better shape.
"You guys scared the shit out of me!" I hissed, as the van rolled away.
"Sorry about that detective, but we just thought we would drop by and have a quick word with yah," my boss said, in his gravely voice, "have you found out anything yet."
"Only that the professor is a bit of a pervert, so I wouldn't be surprised if the allegations are true."
"Yah well we already knew that, but being a pervert ain't what we need, we need proof that he is using his position to take advantage of his students," my boss said.
"Well he made all of us go topless in class and he even touched some of the girl's breasts," I managed.
"Man I would have loved to see that!" His partner sneered.
I should have expected as much, as he always acted like a slime ball. He's the type of guy that would strip search a nun for Jaywalking. I only reacted by giving him the finger.
"Ok knock it off," my boss yelled, "Yah we know all that, but that is covered by the wavier you all signed, when he is in class he can play his little games all he wants and disguise it as medical training. What we need is the outside activities of the professor," he said.
"Well I haven't seen anything," I said, my head spinning.
"Maybe you should try little harder, look at these!" He barked.
He showed me some pictures.
"Recognize them," he sneered.
"Yah the blondes Suzy, she in my class, the other two are John and Amanda, what are these?"
"They were all taking coming out of the professors office and if you notice they look a little more disheveled coming out as they did going in," my boss said as he handed me more photos, "and they all spent quite some time in his office."
He gave me some time to examine the photos.
"Detective I must say, you look a little stunned!" He said, with a smile.
He was right; I was a little stunned because I really thought I was alone on the case, so I asked.
"What are you kidding me, like we are going to send a rookie detective out in the field and not watch her back, listen to this," he said with a laugh.
He played a recording, it took a minute or two before I realized that they had the classroom bugged.
"That's right we are listening, so what I need is for you to get them talking, start by trying to get to work with Suzy or Amanda, or get close to them, and also try to get the professor to invite you back to his office," he hissed.
After thinking about what he was saying, "Wait, what if the professor wants to have sex with me?" I mumbled.
"If he forces you or coerces you, then he would be out of bounds and we can nail him, just remember you are only to observe and react like a normal student would," he said.
"Meaning," I mumbled, not believing what I was hearing.
"You have been authorized to do what you have to do, whatever happens, happens, you just finish out the semester and the class. Then let us handle the criminal charges and then we will bring you in as the star witness," he barked. "Now get out of here and do your job."
They dropped me off behind a large farmhouse, as I jogged back to the campus, I was still having trouble believing my instructions. Never did I figure that they would want me to go through with it, I mean I figured I would slap the cuffs on him right there, and take him away.
