Detective John Frascello Hates Criminals–Loves Bingo!

Written by gamesville / May 5, 2008 4:01 am / Add New Comment

As part of Gamesville's Twelve-Year Anniversary Celebration, we're running classic interviews with a few of our more offbeat members.

Today: a 2002 interview with major crime scene detective John Frascello (a.k.a. "Crimebstr") of Orange Park, Florida.

Tomorrow: we find out what John's been up to for the last six years…

NOTE: Portions of this interview are graphic and may not be suitable for all readers.

GV: How did you get interested in law enforcement?
JF: During my senior year in high school, the police department sponsored a program called "Police Youth Patrol" which allowed teens to ride with an officer. I rode a few times and loved it. After graduation, I filled out an application and was accepted to the academy.

What do you like best about your job?
Finding the key piece of evidence that prompts the arrest of the suspect.

Can you give us an example?
I found a fingerprint on a murder victim which led to the arrest of a serial killer. I used a special chemical to enhance the fingerprint. This was the first time it was successful in Florida and only the second time in the nation.

What is the strangest thing you've seen as a major crime scene detective?
Without a doubt, the suicide victim who locked his hand into a one-fingered salute before killing himself with a high powered rifle shot to the head.

What about the saddest?
Digging up a sixteen month old girl killed by her mother's boyfriend, then buried in the woods.

What's the most physical pain you've ever endured?
Getting my nose broken in three places by a drunk ironworker. I went through two hours of surgery. The worst part came after the surgery when the packing was removed — it felt like my brains were being pulled out!

What do you wish you could learn with the snap of your fingers?
The cause or cure for Sudden Infant Death Syndrome.

What's your favorite Gamesville game?
I have two favorites: The Bingo Zone® and CoverAll. They're challenging, and I like the prizes.
