scans_dailyTo get more information about the murdered street people, Selina breaks into the local morgue to have a look at the autopsy records, and it appears that the poor women have been pulverised.
She thinks back to her conversation with the newly reappeared Holly Robinson.
Selina is kind of annoyed that Holly left the convent she left her at at the end of the Her Sister's Keeper arc way back when (retconning the whole Death for Holly thing that Brubaker retconned). Holly says that she left because it wasn't her thing, and besides the main reason she agreed to stay there was that Maggie Kyle (Selina's sister) was also there, but when she left there was no real incentive to stay.
Regardless, Selina is kind of disappointed that Holly didn't at least try to contact Selina instead of returning to streetwalking, which Holly responds to by point out that for the past few years they thought that she was dead so... yeah.
That night Selina goes on patrol in the East End, her own neighbourhood which got renamed to the Narrows in the reboot comics because of the Nolan films. The East End is one of the poorest sections of Gotham, managing to hold out against the relative gentrification of other sections of the city, where even the cops are relatively untouched by the reforms Jim Gordon established when he took command.
Not far from Selina, the murderer is attempting to deal with his latest victim when an unexpected witness shows up.
...The policemen's reaction is sadly kind of unsurprising, if you look at the real life statistics regarding murdered sex workers. *sigh*
