The Traffic Stop
July 29, 2018. Detectives Karl Jenkins and Sarah Lahey pull over a silver Honda Civic for reckless driving. The driver passes the breath test, but when the vehicle registration comes back, it belongs to someone who shouldn't be lending out their car. The driver has explanations—and keys to prove them. This is the official traffic incident report that documents two roadside encounters and a decision that changes the direction of an investigation.
July 29, 2018. 15:03 hours. Main Road, Glenorchy.
A silver Honda Civic exits a bottle shop car park at speed, nearly clipping a parked vehicle. Detectives Karl Jenkins and Sarah Lahey activate their lights.
Routine traffic stop. Breath test. Vehicle registration check.
Until the name comes back.
Read the official traffic incident report. Two stops. A phone examination. Observations that turn a routine traffic violation into something far more complicated.
This is where Gladys Cramer enters the investigation.
