If somebody had wanted to rough Her up,

They'd have to... Walk through Walls to do it.

You're looking at doing some Long time.

My lawyer seems to think I can Beat it.

Oh, yeah, they always tell you That.

I'm guessing marx kept a pretty Neat cell.

T-shirt folded, toothbrush in a Cup.

Most cons who've been in for a While tend to be neat.

But take a look here.

The pillow's half under the bed.

The pillow's half under the bed.

You've got a button on the floor There.

That's from his shirt.

You've got a shoe over there,

Could've happened when he was Asleep.

Somebody comes in, jumps him, There's a fight,

What the hell does he care where His shoe ends up?

What's he got to be despondent About?

His case was up for retrial.

His case was up for retrial.

You thinking this was suicide?

Well, you know, the ligature Marks on the neck

Have a suspension point which is Consistent with suicide.

Plus, most suicides work with Their bars way up high just like That.

Well, if it was somebody else,

Well, if it was somebody else,

They'd have to be pretty strong To get him up that high.

What is the guy? 200 lbs.?

Two guys could lift him-- there Were three on the tier.

Two guys could lift him-- there Were three on the tier.

And he turns up kosher, then We're scumbags, right?

Let's limit it to this incident.

This is kowalski's backyard. All You've got to do is find out What he wants.

This is kowalski's backyard. All You've got to do is find out What he wants.

You've got no leverage here. He Doesn't care about doing time.

He'd do it standing on his head.

We've still got to justify the Investigation to regan.

We can't keep him in the dark About it.

Let's just keep it to procedure For now, okay?

Now, you've helped out before, Right? One time?

- maybe you could help out here. - maybe...

We're not going to hang a rat Jacket on you, though, all Right?

I wish I could help you, but I Don't know what you're looking For.

Maybe you could start by just Telling us what you did this Morning.

Sure. I ate breakfast in my Cell.

- you see anything? - nothing Special, no.

Those other two guys were pacing The tier,

Those other two guys were pacing The tier,

You know, talking, smoking.

- talking about what? - I don't Know. I didn't hear them.

- talking about what? - I don't Know. I didn't hear them.

When did you get the bruise on Your neck?

I got into a beef in the yard The other day.

Oh, yeah? What about?

Some guy was talking to me like I was a punk.

Yeah? You straightened him out, Did you?

Just trying to survive.

You see vincent marx on the tier This morning?

You see vincent marx on the tier This morning?

Not this morning, no.

Did you see him last night?

Yeah, I did. I saw him come in.

Yeah, I did. I saw him come in.

- did that worry you? - why Would it?

Well, about four years ago,

You did the right thing.

You did the right thing.

You helped the cops put him, a Sex killer, behind bars.

That's right. I did that.

That's right. I did that.

Like you say, the right thing,

But I don't know what you're Getting at.

Well, if marx starts telling the Story around that you helped us Out,

That would label you as a rat, Wouldn't it?

That would be no good for me.

Yeah, but I could understand why Then you'd want

To put a stop to him before that Happened.

Look, let me explain to you how Things work in here, okay?

- okay, we'd appreciate that. - Yeah, go ahead. Do that.

There's a lot of guys in general Population

Who would love to hurt a guy Like marx

Who checks out of protective Custody.

You want a suspect, take your Pick.

We pick you.

We pick you.

See, what we think is that you Went into his cell, strangled Him with a sheet,

Then hung him up to dry like Laundry.

Then hung him up to dry like Laundry.

Okay, that's your take on it,

But that's not reality.

But that's not reality.

Well, supposing you give us

The benefit of your insight into The situation.

The benefit of your insight into The situation.

Sure. I think he had a bad Night and he killed himself.

All the pressure in here,

All the pressure in here,

It can get to you sometimes.

You start thinking about things And suddenly you just snap.

You start thinking about things And suddenly you just snap.

I've seen it happen a lot.

I mean, some guys just can't do Time.

This is mrs. Martin's heart.

It's studded with hemorrhages.

Which means what?

Mrs. Martin died of sudden Cardiac death.

A heart attack?

No. Take a look.

You'll see the difference under The microscope.

A heart attack doesn't tear the Muscle fibers like that.

This was caused by intense Psychological stress.

This was caused by intense Psychological stress.

Man, I get that every day.

Exactly, but in this case we're Talking about

A sudden increased level of Hyperanxiety,

Which triggered an influx of Calcium into the heart cell,

Which in turn caused the heart To contract so intensely

That it never relaxed again.

I believe she was scared to Death.

I believe she was scared to Death.

That would make it a homicide.

It's a bit of a stretch.

Well, if you'll indulge me,

Well, if you'll indulge me,

I'd like you to take a look at Some research that I'm doing.

I walk that scared to death Upstairs to da vinci,

My ass will be back on the Street picking up bodies.

You got that right.

You got that right.

Marx was admitted to the remand Center two nights ago.

His lawyer, sid samuels, had a Court date set for him yesterday Afternoon.

His lawyer, sid samuels, had a Court date set for him yesterday Afternoon.

He was trying to get a retrial Date set based on new evidence.

Same evidence, different lawyer.

Same evidence, different lawyer.

[ leo ]: there may be some Similarities between

The death of the prostitute that Was disinterred

The death of the prostitute that Was disinterred

And the body that we found in The dumpster.

Same tool mark used on both Bodies. That's new.

What's da vinci saying about Marx's death?

[ mick ]: leaning toward Suicide.

We're tracking it. If it looks Like it's going to change,

We're tracking it. If it looks Like it's going to change,

We'll let you know.

All right.

Leo?

I know I gave you a hard time

On that charlie josephs thing Last year,

So I appreciate you watching my Back on this one.

Just trying to keep an eye on Things.

Last death in custody,

Last death in custody,

We ordered cameras on all the Tiers.

When I spoke to corrections About it,

You know what they told me?

Since they're tearing down that Wing anyway,

Why spend more money on it?

Boomerang strategy. We blame Their procedure, they blame the Budget,

Boomerang strategy. We blame Their procedure, they blame the Budget,

And it ends right back in our Lap.

I'll need a copy of your last Recommendations

- so I can make it available to The media. - helen's got that.

- so I can make it available to The media. - helen's got that.

For sure. Helen?

Helen? Sorry.

We need all the death in custody Inquests.

We need all the death in custody Inquests.

- well, which ones did you want? - remand centre.

Fine. Sid samuels is here.

Well, he's here. Come on in, Sid.

- hey, have a seat. - no, Thanks.

- hey, have a seat. - no, Thanks.

Look, I'm sorry about your Client.

Save it for his mother.

Save it for his mother.

Any idea how in the hell a man Who spent

The majority of his time in Protective custody

Ended up in general population?

Ended up in general population?

Because there was a mix-up in The paddy wagon.

He got put in with everyone Else.

You're writing this off as a Clerical error?

That's the story so far.

Am I going to get a homicide Ruling?

We're just waiting for pathology Right now.

We're just waiting for pathology Right now.

Homicide is investigating this.

Excuse me if that doesn't Inspire confidence.

Excuse me if that doesn't Inspire confidence.

Our office is pursuing this as a Death in custody, sid.

This wasn't a suicide.

This wasn't a suicide.

We don't know that.

There's a few things you don't Know.

And that's what an inquest is For.

And that's what an inquest is For.

Now, when you hold this inquest,

I'll want your guarantee there Won't be a whitewash.

I'll want your guarantee there Won't be a whitewash.

Are you thinking that race is a Factor here?

Race is always a factor.

Race is always a factor.

Where do we stand on the Evidence

From the prostitute you Disinterred?

From the prostitute you Disinterred?

The dna was totally degraded.

We got nothing.

We got nothing.

But we did find that she had Been buried

Alongside her personal effects,

And we did manage to pull a set Of prints off the purse,

And we did manage to pull a set Of prints off the purse,

So you might get something There.

That would have brightened Vincent's day.

That would have brightened Vincent's day.

This should start your day with A bang.

- it's from pathology. - thank You.

- what the hell is this? - I Think it's a test.

Let me know if you pass.

- [ knocks ] - uh-huh?

- hi. - hi.

- hi. - hi.

It's a good read... And a Compelling theory,

But I don't think you have Enough relevant data to support It.

But I don't think you have Enough relevant data to support It.

- is that your final word? - I Also notice in your autopsy Report,

You put it down as a homicide?

That's what I believe it is.

That's what I believe it is.

Unless the coroner's act has Changed in the last 24 hours,

You don't have the authority to Make that call.

The most you can call it is Cardio arrhythmia due to fear.

Okay. What's your ruling going To be?

Okay. What's your ruling going To be?

Natural.

Now, if you want to take it Upstairs...

Now, if you want to take it Upstairs...

That's your prerogative.

Thanks for the effort.

Could I help you with anything?

No, thanks, helen. That's okay.

No, thanks, helen. That's okay.

Right.

Okay, I brought sunny down here,

She can run through the evidence For us,

She can run through the evidence For us,

And we'll all get the Information

- at the same time, okay? - Appreciate it.

Let me tell you what I saw Externally.

There are two ligature marks,

The first one being less defined And lower on the neck.

There is a corresponding point

There is a corresponding point

On the back of the neck above The third vertebrae.

Unfortunately, we don't have the Noose in its intact form,

But I'm going on the assumption It was a slip knot.

Well, don't, 'cause chick is Working with the sheet and he's Going to get us

A good idea exactly how the knot Was used, what kind of knot, and All that.

A good idea exactly how the knot Was used, what kind of knot, and All that.

So come on, keep going.

The first ligature occluded the Vasculature, but not the airway.

The first ligature occluded the Vasculature, but not the airway.

This rendered him unconscious, But did not cause asphyxiation.

So the guy's still breathing, The killer's got to string him Up again.

So the guy's still breathing, The killer's got to string him Up again.

The airway doesn't need to be Blocked, but in this case, a Second attempt was made.

So he's fighting like a son of a Bitch,

So he's fighting like a son of a Bitch,

Shoe ends up on the other side Of the cell,

Guy's got to string him up Again.

Whatever.

The first attempt didn't kill Him.

In the second attempt, however,

Both the blood vessels and the Airway were compressed, and this Caused death.

Both the blood vessels and the Airway were compressed, and this Caused death.

Was there-- was there Hemorrhaging in the eyes?

Yes, but minor.

Death was due to asphyxia Following strangulation.

I think he attempted to hang Himself the first time,

The knot didn't hold, he fell to The ground, bruised his Tailbone--

The knot didn't hold, he fell to The ground, bruised his Tailbone--

That's speculation. That's not Going in your report.

He then regained consciousness And was successful the second Time.

He then regained consciousness And was successful the second Time.

You can get another pathologist If you want another opinion.

Whoa, whoa,

Okay, think about what we've got Before you start

Okay, think about what we've got Before you start

Going talking about another Pathologist here.

- okay? - am I missing something Here?

- okay? - am I missing something Here?

Yeah, yeah. If you testify at an Inquest

That this is a suicide, the Whole thing fades away.

We've got nothing. Our leverage Is gone. We've got nothing on Kowalski.

Let her call it suicide. It Works for us.

Let her call it suicide. It Works for us.

- no, this was a lynching. That's what it was. - your Opinion.

Not supported by the Pathological evidence.

Not supported by the Pathological evidence.

Supported by my gut and common Sense.

Look, I'm not making any damn Ruling here

On pathology alone, okay?

So can everybody just, like, Settle down? What is your Problem?

My detective told me about your Findings in the home invasion.

I took the liberty of looking Over the research you gave him

And making myself familiar.

- I hope you don't mind. - not At all.

The numbers speak for Themselves.

And what about this case in Particular?

And what about this case in Particular?

This is a healthy woman, no Illness,

Living in a state of anxiety,

As the locks and bars in her Home indicate.

As the locks and bars in her Home indicate.

Break and enter is demonstrably The inciting incident,

And my pathology on the case

And my pathology on the case

Is about the best example of the Phenomenon I've come across.

This is as good a case for Prosecution as I've seen.

This is as good a case for Prosecution as I've seen.

But the coroner's office and Homicide don't appear to share Your feelings.

Well, you've worked homicide. You know what they're like.

Well, you've worked homicide. You know what they're like.

They're scared of going out on a Limb.

Mmm.

So maybe I'll walk this over to The crown prosecutor myself,

So maybe I'll walk this over to The crown prosecutor myself,

Give him a chance to take a look At it before it's sandbagged.

Well, he'll probably tell you

Well, he'll probably tell you

It's all theoretical until you Have a suspect.

He's down in the tank.

We picked up this morning with Stolen property

We picked up this morning with Stolen property

From a house in the same Neighborhood.

Yeah, the remand log reflected

That you visited kowalski

The day before marx died.

The day before marx died.

This is going to inquest?

When you've developed a suspect,

When you've developed a suspect,

And the crown has laid a charge, I'll stop.

But until that time, this is a Death in custody,

And yeah, it's going to inquest.

Then let me remind you for the Record.

You came down here unofficially And put that bug up my ass

You came down here unofficially And put that bug up my ass

That kowalski was going to Change his testimony.

That's why I went to see him. You led me to it.

That's why I went to see him. You led me to it.

Oh, so you were discussing his Testimony?

- you had doubts? - no.

My reputation was at stake. I Had to reassure myself

That kowalski's statement wasn't Going to change.

- you were reassured? - I was Reassured.

- you were reassured? - I was Reassured.

What, that he was going to stick To his story

Or he was telling the truth? Which?

Or he was telling the truth? Which?

Last I heard, they were the same Thing.

If it turns out that marx was Innocent,

If it turns out that marx was Innocent,

What that means is

Someone fed information to Kowalski,

Information that was kept from Everyone else except the Investigating officer.

Information that was kept from Everyone else except the Investigating officer.

You know damn well that I was The investigating officer.

You know damn well the Spotlight's gonna hit any Second.

You know damn well the Spotlight's gonna hit any Second.

Then let me remind you of the Facts.

Kowalski's statement has never Been proven false.

Kowalski's statement has never Been proven false.

And unless you've ruled Homicide, marx's death is still In question,

And this whole thing could play Out that a guilty man killed Himself

And this whole thing could play Out that a guilty man killed Himself

And saved the taxpayer the cost Of a new trial

And 20 years room and board.

It could also play out that the Investigating officer,

Who was sure that marx was Guilty as hell,

Sought to ensure his conviction. So what did he do?

He cuts a deal with an informant To give false testimony,

And that will come out, that Information.

And that will come out, that Information.

So that investigating officer Should step forward right now

- and just do the right thing. - And that would be?

- and just do the right thing. - And that would be?

We both know what I'm talking About.

Are you finished?

Are you finished?

No.

Thanks for your time.

My door's always open.

You're asking me to take Direction from robbery.

I'm homicide.

No, I'm asking you to pursue a Homicide charge

No, I'm asking you to pursue a Homicide charge

Against a robbery suspect.

Well, last I heard, the coroner On this case

Ruled mrs. Martin's death a Natural.

Ruled mrs. Martin's death a Natural.

The coroner's findings don't Prevent me

From proceeding with criminal Charges.

Okay, suppose this suspect

Okay, suppose this suspect

Is the perpetrator we're looking For.

The guy still wasn't even in the Same room as the victim

The guy still wasn't even in the Same room as the victim

And there's no evidence of Assault.

The weapon was fear. The result Was death.

That's homicide.

That's homicide.

You know, that sounds to me

Like the pathologist and the Robbery sergeant

Leading us around by the nose.

Leading us around by the nose.

Look, the public wants us to get Tough on home invasion,

And it's a priority of the a.G.

And it's a priority of the a.G.

Now, patricia da vinci has given Us an opportunity.

Patricia's been busy.

D, your mother called.

D, your mother called.

Oh! No, hang on a second.

Could you call my mother for me And tell her I can't get out to See dad today

- and I'll call her back later? Thank you. - no, that's fine.

Um, now, patricia was in with Flynn yesterday.

She's campaigning for a death by Fear ruling.

[ laughs ] Death by fear?

[ laughs ] Death by fear?

She finally found a home for That one.

That's taken a long time.

So, what did you do, grab it and Just make a copy?

Yeah.

Pretty good work.

Pretty good work.

You wanted me to be a mole.

Sorry?

Mole's part of the rodent Family, right?

Mole's part of the rodent Family, right?

Okay, we've got the tuxedo Jacket, the black wool socks.

Are these canadian manufactured?

The leather.

Now, this came from the tier.

All the bed linen has a number Stenciled on it

Like this one and assigned to a Particular cell.

So I'm going through it and I Find that the victim's sheet

So I'm going through it and I Find that the victim's sheet

Has somehow ended up on Kowalski's bed.

And kowalski's sheet is on this Other prisoner's bed,

And kowalski's sheet is on this Other prisoner's bed,

Billy mitchell. And his sheet is The one

- that ends up around the Victim's throat. - what?

Musical sheets.

I asked one of the guards about It, and he said that

It could've been maybe a laundry Mix-up. It's happened before.

You want to confuse the case, Confuse the evidence.

Kowalski scores a point.

[ man ]: I never take anything Personal. Only what I need.

[ tony ]: oh, like what?

Uh, well, you know.

A vcr, a toaster, radio, like That--

You should recognize the Neighborhood.

You should recognize the Neighborhood.

You hit some homes around here.

I only did the one I told you About.

What about this house here?

What about this house here?
