Any idea what the weapon might Have been here?

Something high-powered--

Handgun, rifle, could be either.

Their dog was barking and Barking,

And I heard mr. Turner yelling At mrs. Turner,

And I heard mr. Turner yelling At mrs. Turner,

And mrs. Turner was yelling,

And then everything just went Quiet,

And then everything just went Quiet,

Like the sound was switched off.

About what time was this Argument?

Around 11:00.

Hmm... And did you call the Police?

No, not this time.

Not this time.

You've called before when they Were arguing?

Were they threatening each Other, or...

About an hour after I heard them Yelling,

I saw mr. Turner carrying Something heavy

I saw mr. Turner carrying Something heavy

From his house out into the Backyard.

Could you see what it was?

To file a domestic violence Complaint, I can investigate This.

But then he'll know it was me.

But then he'll know it was me.

He doesn't have to know that.

Canvass all the stores and Buildings along here,

Canvass all the stores and Buildings along here,

On both sides of the street,

See if anybody saw somebody with A firearm

On the sidewalk or any place.

Check for anything suspicious.

Maybe somebody heard a gunshot.

Maybe somebody heard a gunshot.

So where do you figure the Shooter is

If the doctor's coming along Right through here?

Well, it must be in one of those Buildings, or up on a roof.

Well, it must be in one of those Buildings, or up on a roof.

That's a pretty hard shot to Make,

Cutting through traffic like That.

Yeah, a moving target,

So whoever this is,

They've obviously had some Practice.

He's just waiting for the Doctor, maybe.

Or maybe it's just

Or maybe it's just

The doctor's not the target.

You mean somebody's waiting to Shoot whoever comes along?

Yeah, just random.

It's lucky it didn't cause a Bigger accident--

Come right through the Intersection here, and get a big Pileup.

D?

No.

No.

Yeah, you might want a look at This.

- this what? - this file.

I was entering your notes on the Drowning,

And I found a previous entry for The mother, sara woods.

She lost another child

Almost exactly five years ago.

That's kind of heavy.

That's kind of heavy.

What's this, hiking accident?

What else is there?

What else is there?

Uh-oh.

Blows to the head,

Which could have been caused

By the fall down the cliff,

By the fall down the cliff,

Or a blow to the head.

I don't like the smell of this.

You said that you interviewed The mother

And you were satisfied with her Explanation.

Right, right,

Right, right,

Then I find out from records

That she's lost a child five Years ago

In a hiking accident.

In a hiking accident.

She never even mentions it to Me.

In that incident, apparently,

The child's walking with her, Tumbles down,

Ends up on a ledge on the cliff, There.

Before the rescue team can reach The boy, he's dead.

- that's a traumatic experience. - sure. One child dies,

- that's a traumatic experience. - sure. One child dies,

That's an accident that happens Every place, every day,

And that's tragic.

Yeah, but I mean, a second Child.

You'd think the mother would Exercise extreme caution,

If not paranoid hypercaution,

Given what happened to the first Child.

Given what happened to the first Child.

That's right,

So either this is a tragic Coincidence

Or it's not,

But I don't want to push this Poor woman over the edge...

But I don't want to push this Poor woman over the edge...

Well, she underwent a thorough Investigation the first time?

A normal coroner's investigation

A normal coroner's investigation

Up in the interior

Where the accident happened.

But you're thinking that now Maybe

That wasn't an accident?

That wasn't an accident?

In light of what's just Happened,

I've got to think that, Absolutely,

And I thought I'd give you the Heads up on it,

Just in case the whole thing Ends up tipping your way,

Just in case the whole thing Ends up tipping your way,

- which I think it might. - Yeah, but there's no body yet.

No, not yet.

So we've got-- and the other Child's been buried,

So we've got one child missing, We've got the other body

Maybe have to be exhumed--

Now, there's another child in The home, isn't there?

That's right,

Two and a half years old.

Well, look,

Until you find a body in the River, you're speculating.

Until you find a body in the River, you're speculating.

I'd like to have a body. I don't Need to be investigating

A third death in this family Down the road.

Da vinci: okay, we're just Speculating here, okay?

On the first child's death.

On the first child's death.

We accept his ruling of Accidental.

Who did the autopsy?

Just one of the pathologists From the interior.

Just one of the pathologists From the interior.

He's a good man there.

We've never had any problem There before.

And what were the circumstances In that instance?

The mother's out with the child, Hiking,

The child disappeared around a Turn out of view,

And then he fell to his death Down the cliff.

And then he fell to his death Down the cliff.

Okay.

Now, the mother, all of a Sudden,

She is being extended all kinds Of sympathy,

She is being extended all kinds Of sympathy,

She's the centre of attention, She's in the newspaper--

She's the focus of a tragedy.

Did she ever receive any Counseling?

I don't believe so.

Okay, so now, some time's passed By

And now, suddenly, not so much Attention, right?

There's no cards, letters, Newspapers, none of that.

She wakes up one morning

And she misses being the centre Of attention.

So you're talking about a Variation

On the munchausen-by-proxy Syndrome?

On the munchausen-by-proxy Syndrome?

Yeah.

Well, as far as I understand it,

That syndrome applies to people Who gain attention

That syndrome applies to people Who gain attention

By first making their child Sick,

And then extending that Attention, not by killing the Child.

- oh, no, sometimes they kill Them. - a small percentage.

This may fall into that Category, the small percentage.

So what you're really asking me

Is to approve the exhumation of The first child?

- yeah. - well, why don't we Just wait and see

What the pathologist comes up With?

What the pathologist comes up With?

It may not even be necessary.

So that's how it's going to be Around here now, is it?

It's going to be on a Case-by-case scenario here?

Is that what you want to do?

Dominic, I am not questioning Your judgment here.

Really?

Okay, but until I can defend our Budget,

Before the attorney general line Item by line item,

Then, yes, I'm afraid it'll have To be case by case.

I'm asking you for an Exhumation.

How long has the body been in The ground?
