1
00:00:01,468 --> 00:00:03,469
- Another body
at Yates' burial ground.

2
00:00:03,471 --> 00:00:05,437
- Someone committed
this horrific crime

3
00:00:05,439 --> 00:00:07,806
to piggyback it onto crimes
I've been accused of.

4
00:00:07,808 --> 00:00:08,941
<i>- You know who the killer is.</i>

5
00:00:08,943 --> 00:00:10,576
- Dr. Carl Rudnick.

6
00:00:10,578 --> 00:00:12,811
- Accusing the Deputy Chief ME
of rape and murder?

7
00:00:12,813 --> 00:00:14,780
- Oh, you can't think that I had
anything to do with this.

8
00:00:14,782 --> 00:00:17,583
- Carl Rudnick,
you're under arrest.

9
00:00:17,585 --> 00:00:19,618
- Something happened to Susie.

10
00:00:19,620 --> 00:00:21,353
She was supposed to call
this morning.

11
00:00:21,355 --> 00:00:23,055
<i>Rudnick's still in custody,</i>
<i>isn't he?</i>

12
00:00:23,057 --> 00:00:25,057
- No, he made bail last night.

13
00:00:25,059 --> 00:00:29,361
- We're not sure it's Susie.

14
00:00:29,363 --> 00:00:30,763
- We are now.

- What the hell
is going on here?

23
00:00:56,323 --> 00:00:57,623
- Exigent circumstances.

24
00:00:57,625 --> 00:00:59,024
- Oh, nice try.

25
00:00:59,026 --> 00:01:01,193
I don't hear
anyone screaming for help.

26
00:01:01,195 --> 00:01:04,063
You have a warrant
to search Dr. Rudnick's house?

27
00:01:04,065 --> 00:01:05,531
- We had one yesterday.

28
00:01:05,533 --> 00:01:08,400
- And now you need a new one.
- Really, Rita?

29
00:01:08,402 --> 00:01:11,403
- We don't know
that Dr. Rudnick was involved.

30
00:01:11,405 --> 00:01:12,771
- Where's your client, Rita?

31
00:01:12,773 --> 00:01:14,473
- I haven't heard from him.

32
00:01:14,475 --> 00:01:17,810
- He is the suspect
in this murder, okay?

33
00:01:17,812 --> 00:01:20,079
You hear from him,
you better let us know.

34
00:01:21,081 --> 00:01:22,648
- The only legal obligation
I have

35
00:01:22,650 --> 00:01:24,850
is to make sure
that he shows up at trial.

36
00:01:24,852 --> 00:01:27,086
- Wow. You're claiming
attorney-client privilege

37
00:01:27,088 --> 00:01:30,189
for a psychopath
who's on the run,

38
00:01:30,191 --> 00:01:31,290
who gutted a woman.

39
00:01:31,292 --> 00:01:33,158
- I have no knowledge of that,

40
00:01:33,160 --> 00:01:35,794
and I have no knowledge of
any future acts he may commit.

41
00:01:35,796 --> 00:01:37,396
- His car is missing.

42
00:01:37,398 --> 00:01:38,897
He's not answering
his telephone.

43
00:01:38,899 --> 00:01:41,066
We need to search
this house now.

44
00:01:41,068 --> 00:01:45,571
- And you can as soon
as you get a warrant.

45
00:01:57,884 --> 00:01:59,885
- Fin's at Real Time
checking traffic cams.

46
00:01:59,887 --> 00:02:01,587
Sarge is
at Rudnick's town house.

47
00:02:01,589 --> 00:02:03,288
There's no sign of this guy.
He's in the wind.

48
00:02:03,290 --> 00:02:06,191
- Yeah, well, he murdered
and dismembered Susie Frain.

49
00:02:06,193 --> 00:02:07,426
I wouldn't have
stuck around either.

50
00:02:07,428 --> 00:02:10,295
We're still missing
a left leg.

51
00:02:11,698 --> 00:02:13,432
[camera shutter clicking]

52
00:02:17,036 --> 00:02:18,770
Ah, that's a calf.

53
00:02:18,772 --> 00:02:21,540
- Sawed off at the left knee,
not a lot of blood.

54
00:02:21,542 --> 00:02:24,576
- [gags, groans softly]

55
00:02:24,578 --> 00:02:26,445
- You guys got this, right?

56
00:02:26,447 --> 00:02:28,380
- [clears throat]
Yeah, give me one second.

57
00:02:28,382 --> 00:02:29,648
Oh.
[vomits]

58
00:02:29,650 --> 00:02:32,751
- Oh, easy.
You all right?

59
00:02:32,753 --> 00:02:35,921
- Yeah.
Yeah, I'm fine.

60
00:02:39,592 --> 00:02:42,361
I am going
to drive us back, okay?

61
00:02:42,363 --> 00:02:45,264
[camera shutter clicking]

62
00:02:45,266 --> 00:02:46,832
- 12 hours
after Rudnick posts bail,

63
00:02:46,834 --> 00:02:48,534
a potential prosecution witness

64
00:02:48,536 --> 00:02:50,135
is found in pieces
with the morning tide?

65
00:02:50,137 --> 00:02:51,970
- We're well aware
of the problem.

66
00:02:51,972 --> 00:02:53,505
- Counselor.
- Where the hell is he?

67
00:02:53,507 --> 00:02:54,973
- This is all we know, okay?

68
00:02:54,975 --> 00:02:57,075
He was last seen posting bond
at 8:00 p.m. last night.

69
00:02:57,077 --> 00:02:58,610
- Uber driver confirms
dropping him off

70
00:02:58,612 --> 00:02:59,878
at his Harlem town house.

71
00:02:59,880 --> 00:03:02,080
So, sometime between last night
and this morning,

72
00:03:02,082 --> 00:03:03,682
he goes
to Susie Frain's apartment,

73
00:03:03,684 --> 00:03:05,250
he dismembers her,
he bags the body,

74
00:03:05,252 --> 00:03:06,585
dumps her in the water
at Fort Tilden,

75
00:03:06,587 --> 00:03:07,719
and then he disappears.

76
00:03:07,721 --> 00:03:09,188
- We've got a BOLO
out on his car,

77
00:03:09,190 --> 00:03:10,455
his credit, his bank cards.

78
00:03:10,457 --> 00:03:11,690
So far, no hits.

79
00:03:11,692 --> 00:03:12,925
- No sightings,
no traffic cams.

80
00:03:12,927 --> 00:03:14,359
Does everyone know
he dresses in drag?

81
00:03:14,361 --> 00:03:16,261
- We've alerted state troopers
and the FBI.

82
00:03:16,263 --> 00:03:17,996
- Oh, they already know.

83
00:03:17,998 --> 00:03:19,898
The ME's office,
the mayor's office,

84
00:03:19,900 --> 00:03:22,100
the people in my office...
[cell phone vibrating]

85
00:03:22,102 --> 00:03:23,669
People are falling over
themselves to point fingers.

86
00:03:23,671 --> 00:03:25,137
- Okay, I get it.
It's a mess, all right?

87
00:03:25,139 --> 00:03:27,873
No leave, no vacation, no--

88
00:03:27,875 --> 00:03:30,576
- Yes, I'll hold
for the governor.

89
00:03:30,578 --> 00:03:32,844
Find him.
- Okay.

90
00:03:34,447 --> 00:03:36,114
- Wow. Somebody
needs a vacation.

91
00:03:36,116 --> 00:03:37,883
- You can't blame him.

92
00:03:37,885 --> 00:03:40,018
I mean, the guy jumps bail,
and then he kills our witness.

93
00:03:40,020 --> 00:03:41,253
- Speaking of,

94
00:03:41,255 --> 00:03:43,355
we need to notify Yates
that his fiancée is dead.

95
00:03:43,357 --> 00:03:45,123
- Look, that's not a priority
right now.

96
00:03:45,125 --> 00:03:46,258
He'll find out on the news.

97
00:03:46,260 --> 00:03:48,994
- I know he will,
but the photo, Sergeant,

98
00:03:48,996 --> 00:03:51,530
the photo that Rudnick sent to
Susie pretending he was Lena--

99
00:03:51,532 --> 00:03:54,433
CSU tore her house apart.
They couldn't find it anywhere.

100
00:03:54,435 --> 00:03:56,001
- Yeah, of course
they couldn't.

101
00:03:56,003 --> 00:03:57,869
That's why Rudnick went
to her house in the first place.

102
00:03:57,871 --> 00:03:59,605
- So check her phone records.
Find out if she called Rudnick.

103
00:03:59,607 --> 00:04:01,907
- What, do you think she was
using that photo for blackmail?

104
00:04:01,909 --> 00:04:05,210
You know she did not come up
with that idea on her own.

105
00:04:05,212 --> 00:04:06,912
- Which is why
I need to talk to Yates.

106
00:04:06,914 --> 00:04:08,680
You know he's more open
when it's just the two of us.

107
00:04:08,682 --> 00:04:10,415
- Nice try, Rollins.

108
00:04:10,417 --> 00:04:13,819
[telephones ringing

109
00:04:16,422 --> 00:04:18,323
- [sighs]
Susie.

110
00:04:20,260 --> 00:04:22,394
Can I see the body?

111
00:04:22,396 --> 00:04:24,930
- That's not going to be
possible, Dr. Yates.

112
00:04:24,932 --> 00:04:27,065
- Are you sure it was her?

113
00:04:27,067 --> 00:04:28,767
- We're sure.
I'm sorry.

114
00:04:30,236 --> 00:04:32,404
- So we were hoping, uh,
to talk to you

115
00:04:32,406 --> 00:04:35,707
about your last conversation
with Susie Frain.

116
00:04:35,709 --> 00:04:37,843
- Yes, of course.

117
00:04:37,845 --> 00:04:39,778
How did Rudnick kill her?

118
00:04:39,780 --> 00:04:41,313
- Still waiting
on the autopsy.

119
00:04:42,448 --> 00:04:43,582
- You are?

120
00:04:43,584 --> 00:04:46,718
Could you ask the ME
to test her HCG levels?

121
00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:48,086
- Excuse me?

122
00:04:48,088 --> 00:04:51,023
- I'd like to know
whether Susie was pregnant.

123
00:04:51,025 --> 00:04:54,993
That afternoon in April before
I was arrested,

124
00:04:54,995 --> 00:04:56,228
we made love.

125
00:04:56,230 --> 00:04:58,997
I could sense
that she was ovulating.

126
00:04:58,999 --> 00:05:01,233
When we had our conjugal,

127
00:05:01,235 --> 00:05:04,303
she agreed to take
a pregnancy test.

128
00:05:06,406 --> 00:05:11,009
It's quite possible that I was
going to be a father...

129
00:05:11,011 --> 00:05:13,245
and he took that from me.

- You got something?
- Yeah, I got a hold of Fin.

133
00:06:11,472 --> 00:06:13,805
He and TARU have been going
through Rudnick's computers,

134

finances, flagging every credit
card that they could find.

- Not yet.

136

But they did find this.

137
00:06:18,345 --> 00:06:21,012
So Dr. Crazy's been wiring

- So contact these people.
- We're trying, Sarge.

141
00:06:25,919 --> 00:06:28,153
But as of now, their only
known addresses are PO boxes.

142
00:06:28,155 --> 00:06:30,322
I mean, we can't find
any employers, phone listings.

143
00:06:30,324 --> 00:06:32,224
- Okay, so they're
false fronts.

See that Terry Fish account
up there?

146
00:06:35,763 --> 00:06:37,062
I just found a Teresa Fish

147
00:06:37,064 --> 00:06:39,164
that has an apartment
in the same zip as that PO box.

148
00:06:39,166 --> 00:06:40,999

149
00:06:41,001 --> 00:06:42,434
- Oh.

150
00:06:42,436 --> 00:06:43,602
Rudnick's a blonde now.

151
00:06:43,604 --> 00:06:47,038
- Teresa got her license
in October of last year.

152
00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:49,007
I'll put a BOLO out.
- You know what? I'll do that.

153
00:06:49,009 --> 00:06:50,509
You two,
get up to that apartment.

154
00:06:50,511 --> 00:06:53,378
If we get lucky,
Rudnick may be hiding there.

155
00:06:56,916 --> 00:06:59,050
- Hey, you all right?

156
00:06:59,052 --> 00:07:01,219
- Why wouldn't I be?
- I don't know.

157
00:07:01,221 --> 00:07:02,521
Usually, you're two steps
ahead of me,

158
00:07:02,523 --> 00:07:04,389
and I've never seen you queasy
at a crime scene before.

159
00:07:04,391 --> 00:07:07,192
- Yeah, I had a bad bagel
yesterday.

160
00:07:07,194 --> 00:07:08,593
I'm totally fine.

161
00:07:12,665 --> 00:07:15,667
- I wondered if something
happened to poor Terry.

162
00:07:15,669 --> 00:07:19,404
I ain't seen her in a while
here, maybe since April.

163
00:07:19,406 --> 00:07:21,907
Is she okay?
We miss her around here.

164
00:07:21,909 --> 00:07:23,675
- You know her?
You talk to her much?

165
00:07:23,677 --> 00:07:25,143
- Is that a joke?

166
00:07:25,145 --> 00:07:26,812
- Does it look
like either of us are laughing?

167
00:07:26,814 --> 00:07:29,080
- It sounds like a joke.

168
00:07:29,082 --> 00:07:32,717
Terry's mute, deaf too.

169
00:07:32,719 --> 00:07:34,352
She used to write
me little notes, you know,

170
00:07:34,354 --> 00:07:37,989
if she needed something,
but never a complaint.

171

00:07:44,498 --> 00:07:46,498
Oh, what am I doing?

174
00:07:46,500 --> 00:07:48,900
It's not like she can hear me.

175
00:08:08,054 --> 00:08:10,422
- You lay this new floor
in here?

176
00:08:10,424 --> 00:08:12,057
- I told you she was
a good tenant.

177
00:08:12,059 --> 00:08:13,825
She must have put
that in herself.

178
00:08:13,827 --> 00:08:15,193
- Right.

179
00:08:34,814 --> 00:08:37,115
Carisi.

180
00:08:37,117 --> 00:08:39,317
- Hey, I found more wigs
and floral print dresses,

181
00:08:39,319 --> 00:08:40,852
lots of them.

182
00:08:40,854 --> 00:08:43,722
- It's red hair,
just like Rachel Groves'.

183
00:08:43,724 --> 00:08:46,057
And these look
like cutting marks to you?

184
00:08:46,059 --> 00:08:48,727
- Totally.
I'll call CSU.

185
00:08:51,464 --> 00:08:53,798
- I got your message
about Rudnick's aliases

186
00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:55,867
so I rechecked
his Jane Doe autopsies.

187
00:08:55,869 --> 00:08:57,869
The last one
was in October.

188
00:08:57,871 --> 00:09:01,306
50-year-old homeless woman
found dead on the E train,

189
00:09:01,308 --> 00:09:02,707
listed as natural causes.

190
00:09:02,709 --> 00:09:04,976
- Never ID'd.

191
00:09:04,978 --> 00:09:09,014
- Rudnick's paperwork says "no
match on fingerprints or DNA."

192
00:09:09,016 --> 00:09:10,815
But I got a print hit

193
00:09:10,817 --> 00:09:15,620
on a New York City food stamp
application--Teresa Fish.

194
00:09:15,622 --> 00:09:18,857
- Rudnick wanted to make sure
that nobody would miss her

195
00:09:18,859 --> 00:09:21,026
so he could steal
her identity.

196
00:09:21,028 --> 00:09:24,029
- Identity thief,
rapist, killer--

197
00:09:24,031 --> 00:09:25,764
the damage
he's done to this office,

198
00:09:25,766 --> 00:09:27,365
it makes me furious.

199
00:09:27,367 --> 00:09:28,867
- Not to mention they
brought him up from Dade County

200
00:09:28,869 --> 00:09:31,002
instead of giving you
that promotion.

201
00:09:31,004 --> 00:09:33,805
You know,
you should reapply.

202
00:09:33,807 --> 00:09:37,442
- Before I do that,
I need to rerun DNA and prints

203
00:09:37,444 --> 00:09:40,779
on every body he's ever sent
to Potter's Field.

204
00:09:40,781 --> 00:09:42,881
- [sighs]

205
00:09:42,883 --> 00:09:45,517
Thank you, Melinda.

206
00:09:45,519 --> 00:09:47,185
- You were right.

207
00:09:47,187 --> 00:09:50,355
One can see pronounced gouges
on this bottom layer.

208
00:09:50,357 --> 00:09:52,591
- Any guess
on what the implement was?

209
00:09:52,593 --> 00:09:54,593
- I'd say
it's a large, flat blade,

210
00:09:54,595 --> 00:09:57,362
maybe a cleaver.
- Oh.

211
00:09:57,364 --> 00:10:02,100
- Aha, it's a pattern,
white marks, strokes.

212
00:10:02,102 --> 00:10:04,536
- So he tried to wipe off the
blood, maybe what, with bleach?

213
00:10:04,538 --> 00:10:07,572
- Yeah, but he didn't
get it all, hence the glow.

214
00:10:12,812 --> 00:10:15,180
- [grunts]

215
00:10:15,182 --> 00:10:17,415
Okay.

216
00:10:21,487 --> 00:10:23,588
Dried blood.

217
00:10:23,590 --> 00:10:26,024
- Quite apparent something
barbarous happened here.

218
00:10:26,026 --> 00:10:27,292
- Yeah.

219
00:10:27,294 --> 00:10:28,660
- Hey, you up
for a flight?

220
00:10:28,662 --> 00:10:30,962
- No, not really.
- Tough luck.

221
00:10:30,964 --> 00:10:32,664
Our plane leaves
in 40 minutes.

222
00:10:32,666 --> 00:10:34,699
Rudnick just got picked up
in Syracuse for shoplifting.

223
00:10:34,701 --> 00:10:36,067
Take a look.

224
00:10:39,672 --> 00:10:41,673
- We ran the prints,
but the system was down.

225
00:10:41,675 --> 00:10:43,141
By the time we got a match,
he was gone.

226
00:10:43,143 --> 00:10:44,542
He said his flight
was leaving in an hour.

227
00:10:44,544 --> 00:10:47,045
- So you let him walk?
Great.

228
00:10:47,047 --> 00:10:48,947
- We thought we had
a 50-year-old cross-dresser

229
00:10:48,949 --> 00:10:51,650
near tears because his mother
was dying in Canada.

230
00:10:51,652 --> 00:10:53,551
He stole a frickin' box
of Coffee Nips.

231
00:10:53,553 --> 00:10:54,653
- All right, I get it.

232
00:10:54,655 --> 00:10:57,122
- We did give him a desk ticket.
- Good for you!

233
00:10:57,124 --> 00:10:58,823
- Listen, Rollins,
their system was down.

234
00:10:58,825 --> 00:11:01,059
He said his mother
was dying.

235
00:11:01,061 --> 00:11:02,861
All right,
we've had a long day.

236
00:11:02,863 --> 00:11:04,362
- The good news is, no one
with that name got on a plane,

237
00:11:04,364 --> 00:11:05,597
train, or rented a car.

238
00:11:05,599 --> 00:11:06,865
- Did you check
his other aliases?

239
00:11:06,867 --> 00:11:08,500
'Cause he has
at least four.

240
00:11:08,502 --> 00:11:10,168
- We did. Look, we got
this entire town locked down.

241
00:11:10,170 --> 00:11:12,404
He's not going anywhere.
- Planes, trains, automobiles.

242
00:11:12,406 --> 00:11:13,672
Did you check buses?

243
00:11:13,674 --> 00:11:15,373
A Meta Bus left an hour
ago for Buffalo.

244
00:11:15,375 --> 00:11:16,775
He could walk to Canada
from there.

245
00:11:16,777 --> 00:11:17,876
- Yeah.
- What time does it arrive?

246
00:11:17,878 --> 00:11:19,144
- It just left Rochester.

247
00:11:19,146 --> 00:11:20,612
It's going to be there
in two and a half hours.

248
00:11:20,614 --> 00:11:23,548
- We're going
to need a squad car now.

249
00:11:26,485 --> 00:11:29,187
- Here comes our bus.

250
00:11:33,492 --> 00:11:35,226
- You're the detectives
from New York?

251
00:11:35,228 --> 00:11:36,928
- Yeah.

252
00:11:36,930 --> 00:11:38,930
- Bob Hencamp, Buffalo PD.
- Dominick Carisi.

253
00:11:38,932 --> 00:11:40,231
This is Detective Rollins.

254
00:11:40,233 --> 00:11:41,499
We call her Sunny.

255
00:11:41,501 --> 00:11:44,235
- Sunny Rollins?
Okay.

256
00:11:44,237 --> 00:11:46,337
Troopers picked up the bus
on I-90 an hour ago,

257
00:11:46,339 --> 00:11:47,939
followed at a discreet distance.

258
00:11:47,941 --> 00:11:49,307
- Well,
he's still on board.

259
00:11:49,309 --> 00:11:51,776
- There was an E. Howard credit
card purchase in Syracuse.

260
00:11:51,778 --> 00:11:54,212
Bus didn't make any stops
between Rochester and here.

261
00:11:54,214 --> 00:11:55,914
- Okay, well,
let's do this thing.

262
00:11:55,916 --> 00:11:58,683
Nice and easy, all right?
We don't want to spook him.

263
00:12:02,054 --> 00:12:03,455
- Dr. Rudnick.

264
00:12:03,457 --> 00:12:05,290
- This is your guy?
- I'm Ellie Howard,

265
00:12:05,292 --> 00:12:07,158
and I fully intend
to pay my fine for shoplifting.

266
00:12:07,160 --> 00:12:08,827
- Ms. Howard, stop.

267
00:12:08,829 --> 00:12:10,328
Why don't you come
with us, all right?

268
00:12:10,330 --> 00:12:12,997
We'll sort this out.

269
00:12:12,999 --> 00:12:14,499
- Hands behind your back,
please.

270
00:12:14,501 --> 00:12:16,267
- [sighs]
Is that really necessary?

271
00:12:16,269 --> 00:12:18,903
- Let him do his job.

272
00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:24,642
[handcuffs clicking]

273
00:12:24,644 --> 00:12:27,212
- All right, come on.

274
00:12:27,214 --> 00:12:33,818
- So you got a cross-dressing
rapist, murderer

275
00:12:33,820 --> 00:12:35,653
in your ME's office.

276
00:12:35,655 --> 00:12:38,256
You guys down in New York City
really are progressive.

277
00:12:38,258 --> 00:12:39,958
- Did he say anything?

278
00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:41,326
- He bitched
when we searched him.

279
00:12:41,328 --> 00:12:44,996
Maybe because he had a money
belt with 64,000 in cash.

280
00:12:44,998 --> 00:12:46,664
- So why is he shoplifting
Coffee Nips, then?

281
00:12:46,666 --> 00:12:50,335
- Well, that's
the $64,000 question.

282
00:12:50,337 --> 00:12:52,737
Just give me a minute
to finish paperwork,

283
00:12:52,739 --> 00:12:55,406
and he's all yours.

284
00:12:55,408 --> 00:12:57,442
- Do you have
a cause of death?

285
00:12:57,444 --> 00:12:59,077
- Manner, homicide.

286
00:12:59,079 --> 00:13:01,479
No one ends up
like this accidently,

287
00:13:01,481 --> 00:13:03,948
Cause of death,
exsanguination.

288
00:13:03,950 --> 00:13:05,517
- So she bled out
when he cut her up.

289
00:13:05,519 --> 00:13:08,887
- No, the dismemberment
occurred post-mortem.

290
00:13:08,889 --> 00:13:11,556
The problem is I can't find
the initial wound.

291
00:13:11,558 --> 00:13:14,192
Most likely trauma
to the femoral vein or artery--

292
00:13:14,194 --> 00:13:16,127
stab wound, maybe gunshot.

293
00:13:16,129 --> 00:13:17,796
- To the missing left thigh?

294
00:13:17,798 --> 00:13:21,232
- I would guess that's
why Rudnick made it disappear.

295
00:13:21,234 --> 00:13:22,967
There's something else.

296
00:13:22,969 --> 00:13:25,537
Susie's tox screen
came back clean,

297
00:13:25,539 --> 00:13:28,006
but her HCG levels were high.

298
00:13:28,008 --> 00:13:29,574
She was pregnant.

299
00:13:35,147 --> 00:13:36,648
- We aren't actually
going to drive

300
00:13:36,650 --> 00:13:38,183
all the way back
to Manhattan, are we?

301
00:13:38,185 --> 00:13:39,651
- Shut up.

302
00:13:39,653 --> 00:13:41,386
You took the bus
up here anyway, right?

303
00:13:41,388 --> 00:13:43,888
- Yes, when I was traveling
incognito.

304
00:13:43,890 --> 00:13:45,323
- What were you
thinking, anyway,

305
00:13:45,325 --> 00:13:47,158
skipping out
on a $2 million bail?

306
00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:48,326
- Well, what were
they thinking?

307
00:13:48,328 --> 00:13:50,195
They charged me with two
murders, then let me go.

308
00:13:50,197 --> 00:13:53,665
Who wouldn't run?
[cell phone ringing]

309
00:13:53,667 --> 00:13:55,900
- Hey, Sarge.

310
00:13:55,902 --> 00:13:57,335
Yeah, we're making
pretty good time,

311
00:13:57,337 --> 00:13:59,838
as long
as we don't get pulled over.

312
00:13:59,840 --> 00:14:00,905
We should be back around--

313
00:14:00,907 --> 00:14:03,041
Wait. Hold on.
Let me check my app.

314
00:14:03,043 --> 00:14:04,709
- Noon.
- Wait. Hold on.

315
00:14:04,711 --> 00:14:06,044
- Noon.
- Noon.

316
00:14:06,046 --> 00:14:08,346
All right,
we'll be back around noon.

317
00:14:08,348 --> 00:14:11,482
All right.
Copy that.

318
00:14:12,518 --> 00:14:14,686
They found his car.

319
00:14:14,688 --> 00:14:15,920
- Why are you whispering?

320
00:14:15,922 --> 00:14:17,355
Rudnick, they found your car.

321
00:14:17,357 --> 00:14:20,625
- Well, give yourselves
a gold star.

322
00:14:20,627 --> 00:14:23,228
- We sure it's Rudnick's?

323
00:14:23,230 --> 00:14:24,963
- Plates and all identifiers
are stripped,

324
00:14:24,965 --> 00:14:26,297
but we got the VIN
off the engine block.

325
00:14:26,299 --> 00:14:27,866
- Okay, so why here?

326
00:14:27,868 --> 00:14:29,834
- The train to the plane
is a block away.

327
00:14:29,836 --> 00:14:31,970
- Oh, so had
we found this any earlier,

328
00:14:31,972 --> 00:14:33,404
we would have been
searching JFK.

329
00:14:33,406 --> 00:14:35,773
- While he got across the border
on his Meta Bus.

330
00:14:35,775 --> 00:14:38,543
He's not stupid,
but he was in a rush.

331
00:14:38,545 --> 00:14:39,878
He left blood.

332
00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:42,013
Now, it's just a trace,

333
00:14:42,015 --> 00:14:44,249
but that's all I need.
- Great.

334
00:14:44,251 --> 00:14:45,683
I'll call Barba.

335
00:14:45,685 --> 00:14:50,355
- A young man
like yourself working at SVU.

336
00:14:50,357 --> 00:14:51,890
That has to be depressing.

337
00:14:51,892 --> 00:14:54,993
- You work in a morgue.
- I find peace in that.

338
00:14:54,995 --> 00:14:56,594
I bring closure to people.

339
00:14:56,596 --> 00:14:58,730
- Yeah,
when you're not killing them.

340
00:14:58,732 --> 00:15:01,366
- Death, in its way,
is the ultimate closure.

341
00:15:01,368 --> 00:15:04,002
- Is that a confession?

342
00:15:04,004 --> 00:15:05,904
- Thanks.

343
00:15:08,674 --> 00:15:10,642
Sure you don't want
something more substantial?

344
00:15:10,644 --> 00:15:12,110
- Mm, yes, I'm sure.

345
00:15:13,712 --> 00:15:15,346
Do you people think
about what you eat?

346
00:15:15,348 --> 00:15:17,515
- Nope.
- You should.

347
00:15:17,517 --> 00:15:19,017
All that cholesterol--

348
00:15:19,019 --> 00:15:20,785
I could tell you
both right now what your livers

349
00:15:20,787 --> 00:15:22,820
are going to look like when
they're eventually on the slab.

350
00:15:22,822 --> 00:15:25,757
- You know what?
Don't.

351
00:15:27,493 --> 00:15:30,662
- I don't mean to be a nuisance,
but may I use the facilities?

352
00:15:32,498 --> 00:15:34,565
- [scoffs]

353
00:15:36,168 --> 00:15:37,635
- [sighs]

354
00:15:37,637 --> 00:15:40,104
- Whoa.
Hey, it's still occupied.

355
00:15:40,106 --> 00:15:41,472
Hey, look, it's my uncle.

356
00:15:41,474 --> 00:15:44,575
I'll see if I can hurry
him along, okay?

357
00:15:45,611 --> 00:15:48,479
- Well, This is unfortunate.

358
00:15:48,481 --> 00:15:52,150
They think I killed that woman
and cut her up.

359
00:15:52,152 --> 00:15:55,453
I don't understand why.

360
00:15:55,455 --> 00:15:59,257
Of course, I do understand.
It's still offensive.

361
00:15:59,259 --> 00:16:00,758
So are they.

362
00:16:00,760 --> 00:16:02,827
[sighs]

363
00:16:02,829 --> 00:16:06,664
Quiet, Doctor, quiet.

364
00:16:06,666 --> 00:16:08,266
Good man.

365
00:16:08,268 --> 00:16:10,902
[toilet flushes]

366
00:16:12,838 --> 00:16:15,239
- Hey, Doc, come on,
we got to go.

367
00:16:15,241 --> 00:16:17,008
- Oh.

368
00:16:17,010 --> 00:16:20,011
Could I trouble you
for my phone?

369
00:16:20,013 --> 00:16:22,347
I need to call my lawyer.

370
00:16:22,349 --> 00:16:25,650
- Mr. Barba?
- Uh-huh?

371
00:16:25,652 --> 00:16:27,485
[scoffs]

372
00:16:27,487 --> 00:16:30,154
Rita...

373
00:16:30,156 --> 00:16:32,323
you have one hell
of a client.

374
00:16:32,325 --> 00:16:33,358
Kills a pregnant witness

375
00:16:33,360 --> 00:16:35,193
and tries to cross the border
in a dress.

376
00:16:35,195 --> 00:16:36,761
- Dr. Rudnick was out on bond.

377
00:16:36,763 --> 00:16:39,030
He was simply taking
in the sights of Buffalo.

378
00:16:39,032 --> 00:16:41,265
- Uh-huh.

379
00:16:41,267 --> 00:16:44,202
We have a DNA match
from Rachel Groves' hair

380
00:16:44,204 --> 00:16:47,872
and blood on the kitchen floor
of an apartment that he leased.

381
00:16:47,874 --> 00:16:50,708
- He's an ME.
He autopsied her body.

382
00:16:50,710 --> 00:16:52,844
It could be
cross-contamination.

383
00:16:52,846 --> 00:16:54,812
- Well, he didn't autopsy
Susie Frain,

384
00:16:54,814 --> 00:16:56,381
and we found her blood
in his car.

385
00:16:56,383 --> 00:16:57,982
- They were old friends.

386
00:16:57,984 --> 00:16:59,484
He gave her a ride.

387
00:16:59,486 --> 00:17:01,152
She bled from a paper cut.

388
00:17:01,154 --> 00:17:03,154
Both those cases
were circumstantial,

389
00:17:03,156 --> 00:17:06,657
and don't get me started
on a 13-year-old body in a wall.

390
00:17:06,659 --> 00:17:08,826
- So why are you here, Rita?

391
00:17:08,828 --> 00:17:11,496
- You have an ME accused
of being a serial killer.

392
00:17:11,498 --> 00:17:15,967
The last thing your bosses want
is a long, drawn-out trial.

393
00:17:15,969 --> 00:17:19,337
And these headlines--
how are your migraines?

394
00:17:26,178 --> 00:17:27,645
- Your solution is?

395
00:17:27,647 --> 00:17:31,315
- Dr. Rudnick pleads to one
count of tampering with evidence

396
00:17:31,317 --> 00:17:34,652
and one count
of unlawful disposal of a body.

397
00:17:34,654 --> 00:17:38,423
This goes away
as quietly as possible.

398
00:17:38,425 --> 00:17:39,991
- Misdemeanors?

399
00:17:39,993 --> 00:17:43,661
He killed three women.

400
00:17:43,663 --> 00:17:45,296
I can offer manslaughter,

401
00:17:45,298 --> 00:17:46,564
20 years on each,
served concurrently.

402
00:17:46,566 --> 00:17:48,132
- A public defender
can get as much.

403
00:17:48,134 --> 00:17:50,334
He is paying
for more than that.

404
00:17:52,671 --> 00:17:54,172
- I hope there's enough money
in the world, Rita.

405
00:17:54,174 --> 00:17:57,275
I really do.

406
00:17:57,277 --> 00:18:00,078
- You better hope
you don't get a conviction,

407
00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:01,646
because if you do,

408
00:18:01,648 --> 00:18:04,315
every case Dr. Rudnick touched
will be subject to an appeal,

409
00:18:04,317 --> 00:18:06,317
starting with Greg Yates.

410
00:18:11,457 --> 00:18:14,158
- I was so worried...

411
00:18:14,160 --> 00:18:17,862
about what might happen
to Susie.

412
00:18:17,864 --> 00:18:19,297
She was always so trusting.

413
00:18:19,299 --> 00:18:22,667
She never saw the dark side
of people.

414
00:18:22,669 --> 00:18:24,335
- Like Dr. Rudnick.

415
00:18:28,140 --> 00:18:31,909
What did she say to you
when you last spoke?

416
00:18:31,911 --> 00:18:36,647
- She firmly believed
that if she asked him,

417
00:18:36,649 --> 00:18:40,051
he would work to set me free
in exchange for the photo.

418
00:18:40,053 --> 00:18:42,887
I knew she was walking
into the lion's den,

419
00:18:42,889 --> 00:18:44,188
but she wouldn't listen.

420
00:18:44,190 --> 00:18:45,590
I...

421
00:18:45,592 --> 00:18:48,759
I think she wanted me out
to be there when she gave birth.

422
00:18:48,761 --> 00:18:50,628
- So she told you
she was pregnant.

423
00:18:50,630 --> 00:18:53,898
- No, she didn't need to.

424
00:18:53,900 --> 00:18:55,766
I knew.

425
00:18:55,768 --> 00:18:59,270
She had
a slightly different scent...

426
00:18:59,272 --> 00:19:01,672
like you do.

427
00:19:03,442 --> 00:19:06,344
How far along are you,
Detective?

428
00:19:06,346 --> 00:19:47,885
- Ms. Calhoun,
are you ready to proceed?

429
00:19:47,887 --> 00:19:49,654
- We are, Your Honor.
- Mr. Barba.

430
00:19:49,656 --> 00:19:50,821
- Your Honor, in addition

431
00:19:50,823 --> 00:19:52,323
to the two standing charges
of murder one,

432
00:19:52,325 --> 00:19:55,493
the defendant is now charged
with the murder of Susie Frain.

433
00:19:55,495 --> 00:19:57,929
- Dr. Rudnick,
how do you plead?

434
00:19:57,931 --> 00:19:59,730
- I apologize for being late,
Your Honor.

435
00:19:59,732 --> 00:20:01,832
John Buchanan
for the defense.

436
00:20:01,834 --> 00:20:03,301
My client pleads not guilty.

437
00:20:03,303 --> 00:20:05,036
- I know who you are,
Counselor,

438
00:20:05,038 --> 00:20:07,371
but I'm not a fan
of courtroom theatrics.

439
00:20:07,373 --> 00:20:09,473
What's going on here,
Ms. Calhoun?

440
00:20:09,475 --> 00:20:13,244
- I just need a moment
to confer with my client.

441
00:20:13,246 --> 00:20:15,213
- So he is still your client.

442
00:20:15,215 --> 00:20:17,281
- He is, Your Honor. Dr. Rudnick
has retained us both.

443
00:20:17,283 --> 00:20:18,482
- You have?

444
00:20:18,484 --> 00:20:20,484
- Rita, the state
saw fit to double down.

445
00:20:20,486 --> 00:20:22,286
I thought it prudent
to do the same.

446
00:20:22,288 --> 00:20:24,088
Now, you both have
my complete confidence.

447
00:20:24,090 --> 00:20:25,990
- May we proceed?

448
00:20:25,992 --> 00:20:27,525
People on bail.
- Remand.

449
00:20:27,527 --> 00:20:29,794
While out on bail,
the defendant murdered

450
00:20:29,796 --> 00:20:32,296
and dismembered
a prosecution witness.

451
00:20:32,298 --> 00:20:33,631
- Another wild accusation.

452
00:20:33,633 --> 00:20:36,267
- More to the point, he is free
to travel within the state.

453
00:20:36,269 --> 00:20:38,502
He has violated
no court order.

454
00:20:38,504 --> 00:20:40,404
- That is absolutely correct.
- Enough, Doctor.

455
00:20:40,406 --> 00:20:44,141
Your bail was a privilege
that has just been revoked.

456
00:20:44,143 --> 00:20:45,977
You are remanded to Rikers.

457
00:20:45,979 --> 00:20:49,280
- In that case, I have a motion
to separate these three charges.

458
00:20:49,282 --> 00:20:50,615
- As do I.

459
00:20:50,617 --> 00:20:53,351
- Coordinate,
and I'll let the presiding judge

460
00:20:53,353 --> 00:20:54,585
know what he's in for.

461
00:20:54,587 --> 00:20:56,287
Good day.
[gavel bangs]

462
00:21:01,059 --> 00:21:02,460
- Hey.

463
00:21:02,462 --> 00:21:03,628
Missed you in court.

464
00:21:03,630 --> 00:21:06,464
- Yeah.
- You look green.

465
00:21:06,466 --> 00:21:08,299
Have a ginger ale.

466
00:21:08,301 --> 00:21:10,134
[can rattles]

467
00:21:10,136 --> 00:21:12,003
- I'm good.

468
00:21:12,005 --> 00:21:13,771
[can opens]

469
00:21:13,773 --> 00:21:15,740
- So have you told
anybody yet?

470
00:21:23,615 --> 00:21:25,516
- Nope.

471
00:21:28,453 --> 00:21:30,388
I just found out.

472
00:21:33,292 --> 00:21:35,960
And not that it's any
of your business,

473
00:21:35,962 --> 00:21:37,662
but, you know,
it's not Nick's, so...

474
00:21:37,664 --> 00:21:39,964
- Okay.

475
00:21:39,966 --> 00:21:41,465
What are you going to do?

476
00:21:41,467 --> 00:21:43,801
- I'm not going to do anything.

477
00:21:43,803 --> 00:21:46,637
- Well, you might want
to tell the sarge.

478
00:21:52,611 --> 00:21:55,980
- Whiskey.
Does that mean it's bad news?

479
00:21:55,982 --> 00:21:58,683
- [sighs] Rudnick's dream team
just got their first win.

480
00:21:58,685 --> 00:21:59,984
The judge granted
their motion

481
00:21:59,986 --> 00:22:01,385
to separate out
the three charges.

482
00:22:01,387 --> 00:22:03,888
- How?
There's a clear pattern.

483
00:22:03,890 --> 00:22:05,690
- [sighs]
Not really.

484
00:22:05,692 --> 00:22:08,159
The murders are spread out
over 13 years,

485
00:22:08,161 --> 00:22:10,194
and the motives
are arguably different.

486
00:22:10,196 --> 00:22:11,495
Lena was his fiancée.

487
00:22:11,497 --> 00:22:13,431
Susie was blackmailing him,

488
00:22:13,433 --> 00:22:15,866
and Rachel--she was just easy
pickings, crime of opportunity.

489
00:22:15,868 --> 00:22:17,435
- Okay, I get it.
So the judge thought

490
00:22:17,437 --> 00:22:18,869
that linking the three
together would be

491
00:22:18,871 --> 00:22:21,972
more prejudicial than probative.
- Prejudicial than probative.

492
00:22:21,974 --> 00:22:23,741
- Okay.

493
00:22:23,743 --> 00:22:25,076
So what do you need from me?

494
00:22:25,078 --> 00:22:28,546
- A thigh,
to establish cause of death.

495
00:22:28,548 --> 00:22:30,247
Susie Frain
is our strongest case.

496
00:22:30,249 --> 00:22:33,818
- The thigh is gone,
but you don't need it.

497
00:22:33,820 --> 00:22:35,486
He cut her up, Barba.

498
00:22:35,488 --> 00:22:38,222
I don't care how good
those lawyers think they are.

499
00:22:38,224 --> 00:22:41,392
When the jury sees
what he did to that woman...

500
00:22:41,394 --> 00:22:43,361
he's done.

501
00:22:45,664 --> 00:22:48,199
- [sighs]

502
00:22:50,202 --> 00:22:52,103
- Were you able
to identify the victim?

503
00:22:52,105 --> 00:22:54,472
- Yes.
In another bag we opened,

504
00:22:54,474 --> 00:22:58,342
we found the decapitated head
of Susie Frain.

505
00:22:58,344 --> 00:23:00,544
It was...

506
00:23:00,546 --> 00:23:02,480
one of the most
gruesome crime scenes

507
00:23:02,482 --> 00:23:03,781
that I've ever witnessed.

508
00:23:03,783 --> 00:23:05,416
- Objection.

509
00:23:05,418 --> 00:23:08,152
These injuries occurred
after Ms. Frain's death.

510
00:23:08,154 --> 00:23:10,321
They have no bearing
on the murder charge

511
00:23:10,323 --> 00:23:12,590
and serve only
to prejudice this jury.

512
00:23:12,592 --> 00:23:14,158
- Overruled.

513
00:23:14,160 --> 00:23:15,726
I'll allow up to a point,

514
00:23:15,728 --> 00:23:17,328
and I want to remind the jury

515
00:23:17,330 --> 00:23:19,163
that you're here to determine
the facts of the murder

516
00:23:19,165 --> 00:23:22,800
and not what happened
to the body post-mortem.

517
00:23:22,802 --> 00:23:26,637
- Sergeant Benson, the body
on the beach was Susie Frain?

518
00:23:26,639 --> 00:23:28,539
- Yes, without a doubt.

519
00:23:28,541 --> 00:23:30,608
DNA links all the pieces.

520
00:23:30,610 --> 00:23:32,576
- Nothing further.

521
00:23:39,317 --> 00:23:41,152
- Good morning, Sergeant.

522
00:23:41,154 --> 00:23:42,987
When you first met Ms. Frain,

523
00:23:42,989 --> 00:23:45,756
it was in connection with
another murder case, correct?

524
00:23:45,758 --> 00:23:47,158
- It was.

525
00:23:47,160 --> 00:23:49,393
- The brutal kidnapping,
rape, and murder

526
00:23:49,395 --> 00:23:54,064
of a Chicago PD employee by
Ms. Frain's fiancée, Greg Yates.

527
00:23:54,066 --> 00:23:55,299
- Yes.

528
00:23:55,301 --> 00:23:57,067
- Did Ms. Frain

529
00:23:57,069 --> 00:24:00,571
maintain his innocence even
after Dr. Yates' conviction?

530
00:24:00,573 --> 00:24:02,106
- Objection.
Relevance.

531
00:24:02,108 --> 00:24:04,008
- Your Honor,
I intend to show a direct line

532
00:24:04,010 --> 00:24:08,779
between Ms. Frain's pathological
desire to clear her fiancée

533
00:24:08,781 --> 00:24:11,282
and the events
that led to her death.

534
00:24:11,284 --> 00:24:13,184
- I'll allow.

535
00:24:13,186 --> 00:24:16,787
- Did Ms. Frain ever become
aware that Dr. Carl Rudnick

536
00:24:16,789 --> 00:24:19,723
was the Deputy Chief ME
for Manhattan

537
00:24:19,725 --> 00:24:23,894
who had supervised the autopsies
of Dr. Yates' victims?

538
00:24:23,896 --> 00:24:25,463
- Yes, and I know
that it's your job

539
00:24:25,465 --> 00:24:27,031
to try to make a connection
between the two--

540
00:24:27,033 --> 00:24:30,067
- Well, so let me do my job.

541
00:24:30,069 --> 00:24:32,036
And after that,

542
00:24:32,038 --> 00:24:35,706
did you and ADA Barba

543
00:24:35,708 --> 00:24:37,541
helpfully arrange
for a conjugal visit

544
00:24:37,543 --> 00:24:40,945
between Ms. Frain
and Dr. Yates?

545
00:24:40,947 --> 00:24:42,713
- We did.

546
00:24:42,715 --> 00:24:46,317
- Once reunited, did they both
spontaneously accuse Dr. Rudnick

547
00:24:46,319 --> 00:24:47,551
of a series of crimes?

548
00:24:47,553 --> 00:24:48,853
- Yes, but there were also

549
00:24:48,855 --> 00:24:50,287
two other women
who had been murdered.

550
00:24:50,289 --> 00:24:54,325
- So is it possible
that they were colluding

551
00:24:54,327 --> 00:24:58,195
to incriminate Dr. Rudnick
in hopes of discrediting him

552
00:24:58,197 --> 00:25:01,966
and thus bolstering
Yates' chance for an appeal.

553
00:25:01,968 --> 00:25:03,901
- Objection.
Speculation.

554
00:25:03,903 --> 00:25:06,036
- Is it?

555
00:25:06,038 --> 00:25:08,339
Withdrawn.

556
00:25:08,341 --> 00:25:10,541
Nothing further.

557
00:25:10,543 --> 00:25:12,843
Thank you, Sergeant.

558
00:25:20,752 --> 00:25:22,119
- Susie Frain was cooperating

559
00:25:22,121 --> 00:25:24,288
with a separate investigation
into Dr. Rudnick.

560
00:25:24,290 --> 00:25:25,723
- Objection, Your Honor.

561
00:25:25,725 --> 00:25:27,391
- This line goes directly
to motive.

562
00:25:27,393 --> 00:25:30,461
- I'll allow
but only in that context.

563
00:25:30,463 --> 00:25:32,196
- In what way was Ms. Frain
cooperating?

564
00:25:32,198 --> 00:25:33,964
- She was searching
for photos

565
00:25:33,966 --> 00:25:36,600
which we believed would provide
evidence against Dr. Rudnick,

566
00:25:36,602 --> 00:25:37,735
but she was murdered

567
00:25:37,737 --> 00:25:39,470
before she had the chance
to deliver them to us.

568
00:25:39,472 --> 00:25:43,040
- Did you find these photos
in her home?

569
00:25:43,042 --> 00:25:45,609
- No, but as the crime-scene
pictures show--

570
00:25:45,611 --> 00:25:48,012
- People's exhibit 47A,
47B, Your Honor.

571
00:25:48,014 --> 00:25:50,247
- Objection.
This is prejudicial.

572
00:25:50,249 --> 00:25:51,515
- It's a crime scene.

573
00:25:51,517 --> 00:25:54,285
- Agreed. Overruled.

574
00:25:54,287 --> 00:25:57,788
- So you can see
her ransacked memento boxes,

575
00:25:57,790 --> 00:26:00,124
and we also later
obtained security footage

576
00:26:00,126 --> 00:26:01,625
from her mini-storage facility.

577
00:26:01,627 --> 00:26:02,960
- People's exhibit 48A.

578
00:26:02,962 --> 00:26:04,762
- Where you can see the victim

579
00:26:04,764 --> 00:26:08,132
had retrieved those same boxes
the day before she was murdered,

580
00:26:08,134 --> 00:26:09,934
so we believe
whoever killed her

581
00:26:09,936 --> 00:26:11,535
took the incriminating photos
with them.

582
00:26:11,537 --> 00:26:13,337
- Objection.
Pure speculation.

583
00:26:13,339 --> 00:26:16,507
- Sustained.
Jury will disregard.

584
00:26:19,578 --> 00:26:20,811
- Nothing further.

585
00:26:20,813 --> 00:26:22,179
- You just said
that Ms. Frain

586
00:26:22,181 --> 00:26:23,814
had agreed to search
for these photos.

587
00:26:23,816 --> 00:26:26,283
Is there any reason
to think that she found them?

588
00:26:26,285 --> 00:26:28,085
- Sergeant Benson and I
were informed of that fact

589
00:26:28,087 --> 00:26:29,320
by Dr. Yates.

590
00:26:29,322 --> 00:26:30,988
- Dr. Yates.

591
00:26:30,990 --> 00:26:33,958
You mean
the convicted murderer?

592
00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:38,495
I see from the prison logs
that you visited Dr. Yates

593
00:26:38,497 --> 00:26:40,331
a half a dozen times
in the last few weeks.

594
00:26:40,333 --> 00:26:43,200
- I was hoping he could help me
with a number of unsolved cases.

595
00:26:43,202 --> 00:26:45,436
- Two of those visits
you undertook on your own.

596
00:26:45,438 --> 00:26:49,173
Is that common practice
for a female NYPD detective?

597
00:26:50,976 --> 00:26:52,610
- He was more open to me
that way.

598
00:26:52,612 --> 00:26:54,979
- So he confided in you.

599
00:26:54,981 --> 00:26:59,016
Did he also enlist you to help
him get a conjugal visit

600
00:26:59,018 --> 00:27:00,818
with Ms. Frain?

601
00:27:00,820 --> 00:27:03,020
- Sure.
- Given that, it seems fair

602
00:27:03,022 --> 00:27:06,590
to say that you had
a relationship with Mr. Yates.

603
00:27:06,592 --> 00:27:08,759
- Not in the way you mean.
- Oh, how do I mean it?

604
00:27:08,761 --> 00:27:10,060
- Objection.

605
00:27:10,062 --> 00:27:11,829
- I'll rephrase.

606
00:27:11,831 --> 00:27:13,364
Did anyone in your squad

607
00:27:13,366 --> 00:27:16,000
ever think that Mr. Yates
was toying with you,

608
00:27:16,002 --> 00:27:18,535
attempting to implicate
Dr. Rudnick

609
00:27:18,537 --> 00:27:21,705
in an effort
to exonerate himself?

610
00:27:21,707 --> 00:27:25,509
- All informants
have an agenda.

611
00:27:25,511 --> 00:27:28,812
Good detectives...

612
00:27:28,814 --> 00:27:30,748
evaluate their credibility.

613
00:27:30,750 --> 00:27:33,150
- Your answer is yes, then?

614
00:27:33,152 --> 00:27:34,551
- Objection.

615
00:27:34,553 --> 00:27:36,654
- Withdrawn.

616
00:27:36,656 --> 00:27:39,156
I'll quit while I'm ahead.

617
00:27:43,928 --> 00:27:46,930
- Hey, you okay?

618
00:27:46,932 --> 00:27:49,900
- Yeah, I thought it was Rudnick
on trial, not Yates or me.

619
00:27:49,902 --> 00:27:52,269
- A lot of pressure up there.

620
00:27:52,271 --> 00:27:54,872
- It is.

621
00:27:54,874 --> 00:27:57,207
Also, um...

622
00:27:57,209 --> 00:27:59,843
I'm pregnant.

623
00:27:59,845 --> 00:28:01,945
- Wow.

624
00:28:01,947 --> 00:28:04,715
- Not Nick's.

625
00:28:04,717 --> 00:28:06,750
- Okay.

626
00:28:06,752 --> 00:28:08,752
Thanks for telling me.

627
00:28:08,754 --> 00:28:11,121
- And I know with the squad
being shorthanded,

628
00:28:11,123 --> 00:28:12,623
it's not the best time for me,

629
00:28:12,625 --> 00:28:13,891
but I want to promise you

630
00:28:13,893 --> 00:28:16,593
this is not going to affect
my ability to do my job.

631
00:28:16,595 --> 00:28:18,996
- Actually, it is,
Amanda, you know.

632
00:28:18,998 --> 00:28:20,664
- Yeah, of course,
but I just meant--

633
00:28:20,666 --> 00:28:22,900
- Look, I know you're going
to fight me on this,

634
00:28:22,902 --> 00:28:24,568
but as soon
as the Department hears,

635
00:28:24,570 --> 00:28:26,670
they're going
to put you on restricted duty.

636
00:28:26,672 --> 00:28:30,174
- Can we wait to tell them?

637
00:28:30,176 --> 00:28:33,110
I just want to work
until the last minute.

638
00:28:33,112 --> 00:28:36,246
- I know what a hard worker
you are.

639
00:28:36,248 --> 00:28:39,750
It's a really good thing,
'cause...

640
00:28:39,752 --> 00:28:42,953
because being a single mom
is, uh...

641
00:28:42,955 --> 00:28:45,723
it's not easy.

642
00:28:45,725 --> 00:28:47,224
- Well, I may not be on my own.

643
00:28:47,226 --> 00:28:50,294
My mom might actually
move up to New York.

644
00:28:50,296 --> 00:28:51,895
- Good, good.

645
00:28:51,897 --> 00:28:53,564
- Yeah.

646
00:28:53,566 --> 00:28:57,968
- Well, I want you to know
I'm--I'm really happy for you.

647
00:28:57,970 --> 00:29:00,270
And, you know, if you want

648
00:29:00,272 --> 00:29:05,008
or need to talk
about anything...

649
00:29:05,010 --> 00:29:06,744
I'm here.

650
00:29:08,179 --> 00:29:09,913
- Okay.

651
00:29:19,357 --> 00:29:20,557
She bled out.

652
00:29:20,559 --> 00:29:21,992
- Yet you were unable
to determine

653
00:29:21,994 --> 00:29:23,927
where the initial wound
was made, Dr. Warner?

654
00:29:23,929 --> 00:29:24,928
- Correct.

655
00:29:24,930 --> 00:29:26,430
I believe it was in the piece

656
00:29:26,432 --> 00:29:29,500
of Susie Frain's thigh
that remains missing.

657
00:29:29,502 --> 00:29:31,268
- What made you come
to that conclusion?

658
00:29:31,270 --> 00:29:34,104
- The lack of blood
in her other body parts.

659
00:29:34,106 --> 00:29:36,406
- And how many
different body parts

660
00:29:36,408 --> 00:29:37,908
were you able to examine?

661
00:29:37,910 --> 00:29:38,909
- Objection.

662
00:29:38,911 --> 00:29:40,477
The prosecution
keeps trying

663
00:29:40,479 --> 00:29:43,514
to poison this jury with what
happened to the victim's body.

664
00:29:43,516 --> 00:29:47,217
- Overruled. But let's
move it along, Mr. Barba.

665
00:29:47,219 --> 00:29:50,020
- Despite being unable
to locate the initial wound,

666
00:29:50,022 --> 00:29:51,522
what did you list
as manner of death?

667
00:29:51,524 --> 00:29:52,856
- Homicide.

668
00:29:52,858 --> 00:29:55,692
No one ends up cut
into pieces like this

669
00:29:55,694 --> 00:29:58,395
after an accidental
or natural death.

670
00:29:58,397 --> 00:30:00,731
- Nothing further.

671
00:30:00,733 --> 00:30:03,066
- Dr. Warner...

672
00:30:03,068 --> 00:30:06,804
both Ms. Frain's
and my client's blood

673
00:30:06,806 --> 00:30:09,673
were found
in Ms. Frain's house.

674
00:30:09,675 --> 00:30:12,176
Isn't that right?
- Yes.

675
00:30:12,178 --> 00:30:15,345
- Defense exhibit 13.

676
00:30:15,347 --> 00:30:19,683
My client had defensive wounds
on his hand and forearms

677
00:30:19,685 --> 00:30:21,518
when you examined him.

678
00:30:21,520 --> 00:30:23,220
- Yes, he did.

679
00:30:23,222 --> 00:30:25,789
However, I can't tell you
how he sustained those injuries.

680
00:30:25,791 --> 00:30:28,292
- Just like you can't tell us
how Ms. Frain

681
00:30:28,294 --> 00:30:29,960
sustained her fatal injury.

682
00:30:29,962 --> 00:30:32,563
- Dr. Rudnick walked
out of that house.

683
00:30:32,565 --> 00:30:34,531
Susie Frain did not.

684
00:30:34,533 --> 00:30:37,901
- And yet your own autopsy can't
determine how she was killed.

685
00:30:39,337 --> 00:30:43,874
Dr. Rudnick was hired as
your supervisor two years ago.

686
00:30:44,943 --> 00:30:46,510
Did you apply
for that position?

687
00:30:46,512 --> 00:30:48,779
- Yes, but that's not--
- Withdrawn.

688
00:30:48,781 --> 00:30:51,315
Nothing further.

689
00:30:51,317 --> 00:30:53,717
- Redirect, Your Honor.

690
00:30:53,719 --> 00:30:56,453
In your opinion,
could Dr. Rudnick's wounds

691
00:30:56,455 --> 00:30:59,156
have been self-inflicted
after he killed Ms. Frain?

692
00:30:59,158 --> 00:31:00,991
- Yes, absolutely.

693
00:31:00,993 --> 00:31:04,361
- Thank you.
Prosecution rests.

694
00:31:04,363 --> 00:31:07,764
- The defense
calls Dr. Carl Rudnick.

695
00:31:15,006 --> 00:31:18,442
Dr. Rudnick, tell the jury
in your own words

696
00:31:18,444 --> 00:31:21,945
what happened the night you went
to Ms. Frain's apartment.

697
00:31:21,947 --> 00:31:24,448
- She attacked me
with a kitchen knife.

698
00:31:24,450 --> 00:31:26,149
There was a struggle.

699
00:31:26,151 --> 00:31:30,120
I killed her accidently
in self-defense.

700
00:31:33,725 --> 00:31:36,360
Dr. Yates
had brainwashed Susie

701
00:31:36,362 --> 00:31:38,562
into believing
I'd been setting him up.

702
00:31:38,564 --> 00:31:41,965
She accused me of tampering with
the autopsies of his victims,

703
00:31:41,967 --> 00:31:44,001
which is patently absurd.

704
00:31:44,003 --> 00:31:46,837
He'd operated
in several disparate states.

705
00:31:46,839 --> 00:31:49,039
And I made the impertinent
mistake of laughing.

706
00:31:49,041 --> 00:31:51,041
- And what did she do?

707
00:31:51,043 --> 00:31:52,843
- She grabbed a knife
and attacked me.

708
00:31:52,845 --> 00:31:57,381
I defended myself, resulting in
these cuts on my hand and arms.

709
00:31:57,383 --> 00:31:58,882
- Could you step down

710
00:31:58,884 --> 00:32:03,020
and demonstrate how you received
those wounds, Dr. Rudnick?

711
00:32:03,022 --> 00:32:04,254
- Objection. Prejudicial.

712
00:32:04,256 --> 00:32:06,123
- What?
How will the jury know

713
00:32:06,125 --> 00:32:08,358
what really happened
if I can't demonstrate?

714
00:32:08,360 --> 00:32:09,927
- Your Honor,
I think a demonstration

715
00:32:09,929 --> 00:32:11,395
could be informative.

716
00:32:11,397 --> 00:32:13,130
- I'll allow it,
but don't milk it.

717
00:32:36,721 --> 00:32:38,355
- Is this how she held it?

718
00:32:38,357 --> 00:32:40,390
- Yes. She pulled the knife
from the butcher block

719
00:32:40,392 --> 00:32:41,558
and swung it down at me.

720
00:32:41,560 --> 00:32:43,226
- Like this?

721
00:32:43,228 --> 00:32:45,395
- Yes, I fended her off
for a moment.

722
00:32:45,397 --> 00:32:46,897
- But she kept coming.

723
00:32:46,899 --> 00:32:49,900
- Unfortunately, I pushed
her wrist on the downward swing.

724
00:32:49,902 --> 00:32:53,403
She put her body weight
into the thrust,

725
00:32:53,405 --> 00:32:56,206
and momentum drove the knife

726
00:32:56,208 --> 00:32:58,709
into her left thigh.

727
00:32:58,711 --> 00:33:02,279
[breathing shakily]

728
00:33:02,281 --> 00:33:04,848
- Doctor...

729
00:33:04,850 --> 00:33:07,584
do you need a moment?

730
00:33:07,586 --> 00:33:09,286
- No.

731
00:33:09,288 --> 00:33:11,455
I'm fine.

732
00:33:11,457 --> 00:33:13,357
Thank you.

733
00:33:14,959 --> 00:33:16,660
Thank you.

734
00:33:21,232 --> 00:33:23,600
[sighs]

735
00:33:23,602 --> 00:33:26,136
- What happened next?

736
00:33:26,138 --> 00:33:27,504
- Well, when I saw the blood,

737
00:33:27,506 --> 00:33:29,940
I knew it had hit
the femoral artery.

738
00:33:29,942 --> 00:33:32,743
I was in shock,
uh, bleeding.

739
00:33:32,745 --> 00:33:35,879
I momentarily lost
consciousness,

740
00:33:35,881 --> 00:33:38,782
and when I came to,
it was too late to save her.

741
00:33:38,784 --> 00:33:40,851
- And then what happened?

742
00:33:40,853 --> 00:33:42,019
- I stitched my cuts,

743
00:33:42,021 --> 00:33:44,021
because I was afraid
to go to the hospital.

744
00:33:44,023 --> 00:33:45,589
- Why was that?

745
00:33:45,591 --> 00:33:48,191
- I felt
if I went in bleeding,

746
00:33:48,193 --> 00:33:50,193
no one would believe
a word I had to say.

747
00:33:50,195 --> 00:33:53,497
- How would you describe
your state of mind?

748
00:33:53,499 --> 00:33:55,298
- I was panicking.

749
00:33:55,300 --> 00:33:57,167
That's why I tried to get rid
of Susie's body.

750
00:33:57,169 --> 00:33:58,869
I'm not proud of that,

751
00:33:58,871 --> 00:34:02,105
but by then, I felt the whole
system had turned against me.

752
00:34:02,107 --> 00:34:04,941
It was fight or flight,
and I chose to flee.

753
00:34:04,943 --> 00:34:08,912
- And when you fled, you
disguised yourself as a woman.

754
00:34:08,914 --> 00:34:10,747
- Everyone was looking
for Carl Rudnick.

755
00:34:10,749 --> 00:34:12,949
No one was looking for Carla.

756
00:34:12,951 --> 00:34:15,652
It seemed to be a good idea
at the time.

757
00:34:15,654 --> 00:34:19,056
- Thank you, Doctor.

758
00:34:19,058 --> 00:34:20,891
- Mr. Barba.

759
00:34:20,893 --> 00:34:23,260
- Dr. Rudnick, are you the
Deputy Chief Medical Examiner

760
00:34:23,262 --> 00:34:24,561
for Manhattan?

761
00:34:24,563 --> 00:34:27,697
- I was.
I believe I'm on leave now.

762
00:34:27,699 --> 00:34:29,833
- As such, you would know
exactly how to mimic

763
00:34:29,835 --> 00:34:31,835
defensive wounds, wouldn't you?

764
00:34:31,837 --> 00:34:33,070
- Are you implying that--

765
00:34:33,072 --> 00:34:36,206
- Yes or no.
- Yes.

766
00:34:36,208 --> 00:34:40,577
- And you would know how
to cut up and dispose of a body.

767
00:34:40,579 --> 00:34:42,546
- An unfortunate area
of expertise

768
00:34:42,548 --> 00:34:45,148
for someone accused of murder,
but it is mine.

769
00:34:45,150 --> 00:34:46,716
- Did you use
a reciprocating saw

770
00:34:46,718 --> 00:34:48,218
and bolt cutter to do so?

771
00:34:48,220 --> 00:34:51,221
People's Exhibit 52--

772
00:34:51,223 --> 00:34:54,591
a receipt for a saw
and bolt cutter...

773
00:34:56,861 --> 00:34:59,062
From Home Depot...

774
00:34:59,064 --> 00:35:03,934
paid with Carl Rudnick's
American Express card at 11:50

775
00:35:03,936 --> 00:35:07,270
on the night Susie Frain
was murdered.

776
00:35:07,272 --> 00:35:08,738
- Yes, luckily, I was
able to make it there

777
00:35:08,740 --> 00:35:10,607
before closing time.
- Ha.

778
00:35:10,609 --> 00:35:12,909
As you said, you knew
exactly what you were doing,

779
00:35:12,911 --> 00:35:14,878
so it is no accident
that the one part

780
00:35:14,880 --> 00:35:16,580
of Susie Frain's body,

781
00:35:16,582 --> 00:35:19,883
the piece that could confirm
or refute your story,

782
00:35:19,885 --> 00:35:22,853
her left thigh,
is the part that's missing.

783
00:35:22,855 --> 00:35:24,888
- Well, you're not suggesting
I can control the vagaries

784
00:35:24,890 --> 00:35:26,823
of the tides, are you?

785
00:35:26,825 --> 00:35:29,926
It is my most fervent wish
that Susie's limb be found,

786
00:35:29,928 --> 00:35:31,895
because it would prove
what I'm saying.

787
00:35:31,897 --> 00:35:33,997
I mean, the angle
of the blade's entry

788
00:35:33,999 --> 00:35:36,066
would show her wound
was self-inflicted.

789
00:35:36,068 --> 00:35:37,300
- Self-inflicted?

790
00:35:37,302 --> 00:35:38,602
Did she dismember herself too?

791
00:35:38,604 --> 00:35:41,705
- No, obviously I did that.

792
00:35:41,707 --> 00:35:44,941
I didn't know of any other way
to get her out of there.

793
00:35:49,080 --> 00:35:50,514
- That was brutal.

794
00:35:50,516 --> 00:35:52,215
- You got some good shots in
towards the end of your cross.

795
00:35:52,217 --> 00:35:55,552
- Did I? Two hours--
every time I lunged, he parried.

796
00:35:55,554 --> 00:35:57,287
The longer he was up there,
the more the jury liked him.

797
00:35:57,289 --> 00:35:58,588
- How is that possible?

798
00:35:58,590 --> 00:36:00,090
- I don't know--
I mean, he's peculiar,

799
00:36:00,092 --> 00:36:01,591
but there's something
interesting about him.

800
00:36:01,593 --> 00:36:02,959
It's weird,
but at the end of our road trip,

801
00:36:02,961 --> 00:36:04,528
I kind of missed the guy.
- You kind of miss--

802
00:36:04,530 --> 00:36:05,795
You missed him?
- Yeah.

803
00:36:05,797 --> 00:36:07,030
- I thought you two
talked too much.

804
00:36:07,032 --> 00:36:08,565
- Yeah, he does talk.

805
00:36:08,567 --> 00:36:10,200
I mean,
he went into the bathroom.

806
00:36:10,202 --> 00:36:11,868
He was alone in the stall.
He thought nobody was listening,

807
00:36:11,870 --> 00:36:13,537
and he kept
the conversation going alone.

808
00:36:13,539 --> 00:36:15,005
- You know what? He talks
during his autopsies too.

809
00:36:15,007 --> 00:36:16,206
He records everything.

810
00:36:16,208 --> 00:36:17,574
I don't know--
we might go through them,

811
00:36:17,576 --> 00:36:19,809
see if he let something slip.

812
00:36:19,811 --> 00:36:21,478
They're city property,
public records.

813
00:36:21,480 --> 00:36:25,382
- It's worth a shot.
Make a night of it, Rollins?

814
00:36:25,384 --> 00:36:30,086
<i>- Caucasian female,</i>
<i>late 20s, red hair.</i>

815
00:36:30,088 --> 00:36:33,690
<i>Like so many redheads,</i>
<i>less susceptible to anesthesia.</i>

816
00:36:35,560 --> 00:36:39,563
<i>She felt everything</i>
<i>that was being done to her.</i>

817
00:36:39,565 --> 00:36:41,231
- I found out
why he likes redheads.

818
00:36:41,233 --> 00:36:42,899
That's all I got.
- Shh.

819
00:36:46,037 --> 00:36:48,205
I think I got something.

820
00:36:48,207 --> 00:36:49,506
- From an autopsy?

821
00:36:49,508 --> 00:36:52,442
- No, video,
and it's not from the morgue.

822
00:37:07,225 --> 00:37:09,559
I'm contacting my lawyer.

823
00:37:09,561 --> 00:37:11,261
I'd like to exercise
that right.

824
00:37:11,263 --> 00:37:12,462
<i>- Feel free.</i>

825
00:37:12,464 --> 00:37:15,165
<i>We will wait to continue</i>
<i>questioning you</i>

826
00:37:15,167 --> 00:37:17,267
<i>until a lawyer arrives.</i>

827
00:37:19,704 --> 00:37:23,406
<i>[footsteps departing,</i>
<i>door closes]</i>

828
00:37:23,408 --> 00:37:26,409
- <i>They can't pin these on you.</i>

829
00:37:28,846 --> 00:37:31,414
<i>Rachel was a crack whore.</i>

830
00:37:33,184 --> 00:37:36,019
<i>And with</i>
<i>the green nail polish</i>

831
00:37:36,021 --> 00:37:39,089
<i>and the proximity</i>
<i>to Yates' victims...</i>

832
00:37:40,691 --> 00:37:42,759
<i>That's far too much</i>
<i>reasonable doubt.</i>

833
00:37:42,761 --> 00:37:44,995
<i>And Lena,</i>

834
00:37:44,997 --> 00:37:47,831
<i>nobody</i>
<i>will buy Yates' word.</i>

835
00:37:47,833 --> 00:37:50,333
<i>And my only risk there</i>
<i>is Susie.</i>

836
00:37:50,335 --> 00:37:51,668
<i>She's dumb as a post,</i>

837
00:37:51,670 --> 00:37:54,838
<i>but she still can put</i>
<i>two and two together.</i>

838
00:37:54,840 --> 00:37:57,073
<i>And if she does...</i>

839
00:37:58,843 --> 00:38:02,912
<i>I suppose</i>
<i>I'll have to kill her...</i>

840
00:38:02,914 --> 00:38:04,581
<i>just like the others.</i>

841
00:38:08,286 --> 00:38:10,654
<i>[sighs]</i>
<i>Kill them all, Carl...</i>

842
00:38:13,257 --> 00:38:15,892
<i>Whatever it takes.</i>

843
00:38:15,894 --> 00:38:17,861
<i>[door opens]</i>

844
00:38:17,863 --> 00:38:20,397
<i>Rita, it's very good of you</i>
<i>to come on such short notice.</i>

845
00:38:20,399 --> 00:38:24,267
- Of course, Carl, but I'm
afraid I have some bad news.

846
00:38:24,269 --> 00:38:27,470
- This is clearly inadmissible,
Your Honor.

847
00:38:27,472 --> 00:38:30,073
- I understand
why you'd like to think that.

848
00:38:30,075 --> 00:38:33,576
Walk me through the provenance
and chain of evidence.

849
00:38:33,578 --> 00:38:35,412
How did this fall
into your hands?

850
00:38:35,414 --> 00:38:37,247
- We asked Dr. Rudnick
to come in for an interview,

851
00:38:37,249 --> 00:38:39,182
and he gave us permission
to record it.

852
00:38:39,184 --> 00:38:41,117
- Your Honor, Dr. Rudnick
had asked for counsel.

853
00:38:41,119 --> 00:38:42,585
- And when he did,
we immediately stopped

854
00:38:42,587 --> 00:38:43,820
questioning him
and left the room.

855
00:38:43,822 --> 00:38:44,921
- Yes, but you
left the camera on.

856
00:38:44,923 --> 00:38:47,324
- He knew that he was
being recorded.

857
00:38:47,326 --> 00:38:48,758
We weren't interrogating him.

858
00:38:48,760 --> 00:38:50,894
This was
a spontaneous admission.

859
00:38:50,896 --> 00:38:52,095
Your client talks to himself.

860
00:38:52,097 --> 00:38:54,731
- Not only is this inadmissible
under Miranda,

861
00:38:54,733 --> 00:38:56,533
but it's also Brady material

862
00:38:56,535 --> 00:38:58,101
that should have been
made available to us.

863
00:38:58,103 --> 00:38:59,402
- It was.
A copy of this video

864
00:38:59,404 --> 00:39:01,571
has been in your possession
since day one.

865
00:39:01,573 --> 00:39:03,573
You must have stopped watching
when we stopped questioning.

866
00:39:03,575 --> 00:39:04,674
- He's right, Mr. Buchanan.

867
00:39:04,676 --> 00:39:06,643
If you turned this off,
it's on you.

868
00:39:06,645 --> 00:39:07,877
This is admissible.

869
00:39:07,879 --> 00:39:09,579
- I was simply thinking
out loud.

870
00:39:09,581 --> 00:39:10,680
- Carl.

871
00:39:10,682 --> 00:39:13,750
- We'll let the jury
determine that.

872
00:39:13,752 --> 00:39:16,419
- You had the recording
for the entirety of my ordeal,

873
00:39:16,421 --> 00:39:20,090
and you didn't know it?
- Carl.

874
00:39:20,092 --> 00:39:22,092
- Your Honor, I immediately move
for new counsel

875
00:39:22,094 --> 00:39:24,160
on the basis
of incompetent defense.

876
00:39:24,162 --> 00:39:25,562
- [chuckles]
That's your right.

877
00:39:25,564 --> 00:39:27,063
I should caution you,
though--

878
00:39:27,065 --> 00:39:30,133
this material is admissible
no matter who defends you.

879
00:39:36,407 --> 00:39:40,577
Dr. Rudnick, I understand
you'd like to change your plea.

880
00:39:40,579 --> 00:39:42,245
- Yes, Your Honor.

881
00:39:42,247 --> 00:39:46,249
- On the charge of murder in
the first degree of Susie Frain,

882
00:39:46,251 --> 00:39:47,550
how do you plead?

883
00:39:47,552 --> 00:39:49,753
- Guilty as charged.

884
00:39:49,755 --> 00:39:51,154
[audience murmuring]

885
00:39:51,156 --> 00:39:52,422
- And to the outstanding charge

886
00:39:52,424 --> 00:39:56,893
of murder in the first degree
of Rachel Groves?

887
00:39:56,895 --> 00:39:59,496
- I'm afraid
I'm guilty on that one as well.

888
00:39:59,498 --> 00:40:02,232
- Your Honor, at this time,

889
00:40:02,234 --> 00:40:04,567
the prosecution would like
to withdraw its charge

890
00:40:04,569 --> 00:40:06,903
of murder in the first degree
of Lena Grunwald.

891
00:40:06,905 --> 00:40:08,905
- All right, Counselors,
thank you for your time.

892
00:40:08,907 --> 00:40:10,507
And now that justice
has been served,

893
00:40:10,509 --> 00:40:12,208
I declare
this court adjourned.

894
00:40:12,210 --> 00:40:14,544
[gavel bangs]

895
00:40:18,582 --> 00:40:22,018
- Wait. He gets away
with Lena's murder.

896
00:40:22,020 --> 00:40:23,520
- Well, he'll still do
25 to life

897
00:40:23,522 --> 00:40:25,188
for the other two charges.

898
00:40:25,190 --> 00:40:27,490
Maybe you two will be
roommates one day.

899
00:40:27,492 --> 00:40:29,025
[chuckles]

900
00:40:29,027 --> 00:40:31,327
- He did it, you know.

901
00:40:31,329 --> 00:40:34,798
Lena--he strangled her
to death.

902
00:40:36,000 --> 00:40:38,101
- Her skull
was also fractured.

903
00:40:39,670 --> 00:40:42,505
- Strangulation
was the cause of death.

904
00:40:42,507 --> 00:40:44,808
Skull fracture
was post-mortem.

905
00:40:46,677 --> 00:40:49,179
- You sound pretty sure
about that.

906
00:40:49,181 --> 00:40:51,848
- I'm just
piecing it together,

907
00:40:51,850 --> 00:40:54,184
but if I had to guess...

908
00:40:54,186 --> 00:40:56,686
Lena was his first time.

909
00:40:56,688 --> 00:40:58,855
Carl screwed up,

910
00:40:58,857 --> 00:41:01,191
and he had to call someone
with more experience

911
00:41:01,193 --> 00:41:04,694
to help him finish.

912
00:41:06,063 --> 00:41:09,032
- And how did
this person help?

913
00:41:09,034 --> 00:41:11,334
- He probably advised Carl

914
00:41:11,336 --> 00:41:14,337
to keep Lena alive

915
00:41:14,339 --> 00:41:16,840
as long as possible.

916
00:41:16,842 --> 00:41:21,244
Such a waste
to have her die so quickly.

917
00:41:30,187 --> 00:41:34,390
- Why are you telling
me this now?

918
00:41:34,392 --> 00:41:38,161
- Because I believe
when one life ends,

919
00:41:38,163 --> 00:41:39,762
another begins.

920
00:41:39,764 --> 00:41:42,832
You are bringing life
into this world

921
00:41:42,834 --> 00:41:46,402
just as I lost my wife
and my child.

922
00:41:47,838 --> 00:41:50,006
I feel a connection to you.

923
00:41:52,676 --> 00:41:54,177
You'll be back.

924
00:41:54,179 --> 00:41:57,747
And I will be here.

925
00:42:36,787 --> 00:42:39,856
