Do we have 214 00:12:18,350 --> 00:12:19,350 serial killer on our hands? 215 00:12:19,550 --> 00:12:20,329 Come on, Joe. 216 00:12:20,330 --> 00:12:24,410 Is there a guy out there killing working girls or not? A couple swapping spit in 217 00:12:24,410 --> 00:12:27,610 a pickup truck hurt two shots around 11. Called it in. We're getting a statement 218 00:12:27,610 --> 00:12:31,130 now. Luttre leads into the scrub. Let's get a barrier up, keep the media maggots 219 00:12:31,130 --> 00:12:32,170 out of our face. With pleasure. 220 00:12:32,470 --> 00:12:33,670 Woman took a bullet to the chest. 221 00:12:34,090 --> 00:12:36,930 Rigger hasn't sat in. I'd ask her if she's been dead less than an hour. 222 00:12:37,310 --> 00:12:42,190 380, shell casing, batter, bullet hole. 223 00:12:45,390 --> 00:12:49,110 Going through this angle. Looks like our victim fired a round through the 224 00:12:49,110 --> 00:12:50,069 killer's abdomen. 225 00:12:50,070 --> 00:12:53,430 Yeah. Depending on where she hit him, he could have crawled a long way. 226 00:12:55,910 --> 00:12:58,250 Get the dogs. We've got to get this guy now. 227 00:13:07,330 --> 00:13:11,790 The third victim having shot her attacker put us in the 19th century 228 00:13:11,790 --> 00:13:12,790 the 21st. 229 00:13:12,930 --> 00:13:14,650 Dog following blood trail. 230 00:13:16,040 --> 00:13:17,040 Dawn came. 231 00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:18,200 Still no finish. 232 00:13:18,540 --> 00:13:20,400 I guess he had turned 21 last month. 233 00:13:20,740 --> 00:13:21,740 Yeah. 234 00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:26,320 She parties a lot. Goes to raves. 235 00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:29,660 Went to Burning Man out in the desert. So you're thinking she could have been 236 00:13:29,660 --> 00:13:30,479 that car. 237 00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:32,800 What are you going to do? Buy your sister a gun? She'd blow her foot off. 238 00:13:34,500 --> 00:13:35,800 No, it's just that she's reckless. 239 00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:39,680 With these random killings. Random? I got a problem with random. 240 00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:42,480 But you see a connection between the three Vicks? 241 00:13:42,720 --> 00:13:44,520 Between Wexler and Gascon? No doubt. 242 00:13:44,960 --> 00:13:45,960 The woman in the car? No. 243 00:13:46,500 --> 00:13:47,500 No, I don't see her coming. 244 00:13:50,580 --> 00:13:52,060 Right down there. Come on, let's go! 245 00:13:57,580 --> 00:14:04,060 Are you going to make it? 246 00:14:05,540 --> 00:14:06,780 He's lost a lot of blood. 247 00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:08,160 Don't let him die. You hear me? 248 00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:10,180 Keep that son of a bitch alive. 249 00:14:18,670 --> 00:14:20,990 We got his rap sheet off the driver's license. Thank you. 250 00:14:21,230 --> 00:14:25,810 Christopher Brule, 31, two priors, both for sexual assault, three years of 251 00:14:25,810 --> 00:14:28,310 fulsome parole, December 31st. He's fit. 252 00:14:28,510 --> 00:14:29,510 Yeah. 253 00:14:30,110 --> 00:14:34,450 Captain? Joe, this is Dr. Louise Nottingham. She's here to help us 254 00:14:34,450 --> 00:14:35,450 profile. 255 00:14:35,790 --> 00:14:39,550 I read some stuff you wrote on criminal disassociative behavior when you were 256 00:14:39,550 --> 00:14:40,329 with the FBI. 257 00:14:40,330 --> 00:14:41,330 Pretty impressive stuff. 258 00:14:42,250 --> 00:14:43,129 Thank you. 259 00:14:43,130 --> 00:14:44,130 Take a look. 260 00:14:45,379 --> 00:14:47,200 Botanic iconography, deviant pornography. 261 00:14:47,740 --> 00:14:48,740 It's the right fit. 262 00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:50,840 Detective, check this out. 263 00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:56,200 You might want to get this to the lab ASAP. See if you can get a match on 264 00:14:56,200 --> 00:14:57,039 from the victims. 265 00:14:57,040 --> 00:14:59,660 There were no fibers on the last two victims. No prints. 266 00:14:59,980 --> 00:15:00,980 Scrubbed clean. 267 00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:02,720 Seems that guy's a perfectionist. 268 00:15:03,100 --> 00:15:04,120 He'd be a neat freak. 269 00:15:04,500 --> 00:15:05,560 At least where he lives. 270 00:15:05,860 --> 00:15:08,100 Any trace of silver spray paint? Still looking. 271 00:15:08,340 --> 00:15:11,100 We got a wide cross -section of prints, though. This guy's definitely 272 00:15:11,100 --> 00:15:12,100 entertained. 273 00:15:12,320 --> 00:15:15,540 The previous two murders, we figured that the suspect picked prostitutes, 274 00:15:15,540 --> 00:15:18,660 to lure him into his car. According to this sheet, his last victim, Joanne 275 00:15:18,980 --> 00:15:20,660 she was a dialysis technician. 276 00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:23,540 Well, she was also working part -time at L .A. Adult Video. 277 00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:25,760 4723 Citrus. 278 00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:27,200 It's right up the street. 279 00:15:27,460 --> 00:15:31,660 Chokers. Apparently, Mr. Boulay was into erotic asphyxiation. Fits with 280 00:15:31,660 --> 00:15:33,860 strangulation. And with sexual dysfunction. 281 00:15:34,940 --> 00:15:36,520 I don't see our man using a gun. 282 00:15:37,080 --> 00:15:41,170 Perhaps... As you said, because Brulé couldn't lure Ms. Sims into his car, he 283 00:15:41,170 --> 00:15:42,170 had to resort to force. 284 00:15:42,690 --> 00:15:46,630 Use a gun. Maybe our killer's still at large. Detective, come on. Brulé was a 285 00:15:46,630 --> 00:15:50,710 loner in his 30s, a woman -hater, ashamed of his sexual dysfunction. 286 00:15:51,010 --> 00:15:55,050 Compelled to remove the reminder of that by robbing his victims of the ability 287 00:15:55,050 --> 00:15:57,770 to speak and breathe. Yeah, I get the profile. 288 00:15:58,150 --> 00:16:02,110 But I still think the only way for certain to tell if Brulé's our killer is 289 00:16:02,110 --> 00:16:05,290 match his DNA with that we found on Wexler and Gaskell. 290 00:16:05,510 --> 00:16:07,010 We're weeks away from that analysis. 291 00:16:07,290 --> 00:16:10,390 Captain, we just got a call from County USC. 292 00:16:11,110 --> 00:16:12,890 Brulé just died on a table two minutes ago. 293 00:16:16,830 --> 00:16:20,970 I suggest we at least present an opinion. Let the public draw their own 294 00:16:20,970 --> 00:16:24,770 conclusion. And quite possibly, put some women's minds at ease. 295 00:16:24,970 --> 00:16:27,690 Well, if you're wrong, guess what conclusion the killer's going to draw? 296 00:16:28,270 --> 00:16:31,510 He's going to think there's some punk out there taking credit for his hard 297 00:16:31,670 --> 00:16:32,930 And that's really going to piss him off. 298 00:16:38,320 --> 00:16:39,320 I'm with Dr. Nottingham. 299 00:16:42,780 --> 00:16:47,780 Captain! Captain, did Brulé kill the first two women or not? 300 00:16:48,540 --> 00:16:51,360 Mr. Brulé had a history of violent sexual behavior. 301 00:16:51,700 --> 00:16:55,280 He had the same blood type as that found on all three of the victims, and he 302 00:16:55,280 --> 00:16:56,259 fits our profile. 303 00:16:56,260 --> 00:16:59,200 Is it true the killer marked his victims with super spray paint? 304 00:16:59,820 --> 00:17:02,720 That's all the information we're giving out at this time. How do they get this 305 00:17:02,720 --> 00:17:05,060 stuff so fast? Who knows? Maybe the killer leaked it. 306 00:17:05,280 --> 00:17:09,060 Is it true the Silver Slayer strangled his first two victims, Captain? 307 00:17:09,339 --> 00:17:12,260 Silver Slayer. That guy needs a supervillain nickname. 308 00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:15,240 So you think he's here? 309 00:17:16,180 --> 00:17:17,180 Who knows? Maybe. 310 00:17:18,400 --> 00:17:19,839 Or out looking for his next victim. 311 00:17:22,480 --> 00:17:24,760 We'd moved from policing to political convenience. 312 00:17:25,680 --> 00:17:27,640 Everyone was hoping it would just go away. 313 00:17:29,070 --> 00:17:30,750 But three hours later, it was back. 314 00:17:36,050 --> 00:17:39,290 Petechial hemorrhaging, five -point ligature marks, semen outside, silver 315 00:17:39,290 --> 00:17:43,150 paint inside. She was killed 11, possibly 12 hours ago. That's great. So 316 00:17:43,150 --> 00:17:45,930 theoretically, Christopher Burleigh could have killed and dumped this woman 317 00:17:45,930 --> 00:17:47,270 before assaulting Joanna Sims. 318 00:17:47,610 --> 00:17:49,590 You don't buy that, do you? No, but it's possible. 319 00:17:49,910 --> 00:17:51,110 That's what people want to believe. 320 00:17:51,470 --> 00:17:52,470 What are these, burn marks? 321 00:17:52,710 --> 00:17:53,710 New twist. 322 00:17:53,850 --> 00:17:57,530 Tiny cuts on each palm where he inserted some sort of device, probably a wire, 323 00:17:57,650 --> 00:17:58,790 and pushed it into the tendon. 324 00:17:59,750 --> 00:18:01,890 Sadistic son of a bitch. Tortured her with electricity. 325 00:18:04,170 --> 00:18:08,230 You ever hear of the Hillside Stranglers? Back in the mid -70s, 326 00:18:08,230 --> 00:18:10,850 Kenneth Bianchi tortured, murdered, raped girls in and around the Hollywood 327 00:18:10,850 --> 00:18:11,870 area. Yeah, some movie. 328 00:18:12,390 --> 00:18:15,530 First couple of victims were working girls. One was tortured with 329 00:18:16,730 --> 00:18:17,730 Copycat. 330 00:18:22,220 --> 00:18:23,680 90 ,000 pages, detective. 331 00:18:24,740 --> 00:18:27,860 273 boxes on the hillsides during her case.

Last I 342 00:18:52,060 --> 00:18:53,060 heard, he was still in town. 343 00:18:57,260 --> 00:18:58,260 Detective McFarlane. 344 00:18:59,280 --> 00:19:03,140 Retired, Detective McFarlane.

That's amazing. And after 25 years, you still 355 00:19:31,730 --> 00:19:32,730 remember that kind of detail? 356 00:19:33,090 --> 00:19:35,230 Unfortunately, I remember all the details. 357 00:19:35,950 --> 00:19:37,690 Faces stay with you.

One of whom 359 00:19:43,030 --> 00:19:44,030 is still alive. 360 00:19:44,060 --> 00:19:46,580 Yeah, watching Oprah eating three squares a day, it makes me sick. 361 00:19:46,780 --> 00:19:49,020 These are the crime scene photos for our third victim. 362 00:19:50,560 --> 00:19:53,340 Homer's longest on the left, older nerve on the right. 363 00:19:54,360 --> 00:19:55,360 That's remarkable. 364 00:19:55,640 --> 00:19:56,880 I'm thinking too remarkable. 365 00:19:58,860 --> 00:20:01,940 No way he got that kind of detail from the public record. I know I made the 366 00:20:01,940 --> 00:20:05,160 public record. To know exactly where to insert those wires, he had to get hold 367 00:20:05,160 --> 00:20:06,119 of sealed evidence. 368 00:20:06,120 --> 00:20:07,120 The question is how. 369 00:20:10,660 --> 00:20:13,360 Gregor, I want the names of all the people who checked out evidence on the 370 00:20:13,360 --> 00:20:15,220 Hillside Stranglers over the last year.
