All language subtitles for Spuren.S01E03.Blood.Rain.1080p.AMZN.WEB-DL.DD+5.1.H.264-playWEB_track3_[eng]

Josefine Schora, 21 years old.
Student.

Apparently on her way home.

We're expanding the search
to Switzerland, Austria and France.

We'll find out if it's the same killer

and if he's already killed in the past.

I'd ask you to submit to a DNA test.

You think I could hurt Stefanie...

You think that?

I compared the DNA of the second victim
with sample SP 10.4.

It's from the man whose DNA
was on the bike.

- And on Josefine Schora's body?
- Yep.

That's our killer.

- You think, you don't know.
- There are strong suspicions.

What if it isn't him?

THE BLACK FOREST MURDERS

So, Hamid Rahimi.

Iranian.

A refugee who arrived last year
as an unaccompanied minor.

He's registered
with a foster family in Lauburg.

BLOOD RAIN

Is the interpreter guy here?

It's a woman.

He might be more willing
to talk with a man.

There aren't so many.
She'll be here soon.

- Could you speak to him then?
- No. He speaks Farsi.

I speak Dari.

The nightwatchman
at your accommodation has stated

that on that night you returned
between 3 a.m. and 3:30 a.m.

I don't have to be there at night.

Yes, that's not the issue.
Here.

This is your accommodation.

How did you get back there?

This way or that way.

Did you walk along the river
that night? There.

I don't know. I was drunk.

Do you sometimes go to clubs?

- Yes, Faun or Madre.
- Do you know them?

Normal clubs, but they have bouncers
at the weekends.

Not sure
if they'd let someone like him in.

That's just how it is.

I'll see if someone's there
other than the cleaner.

That night...

right here...

a young woman died.

Mr Rahimi would like to have
a male interpreter.

Why?

He thinks I'm doing it wrong.

We'll check it afterwards anyway,
so don't worry about that.

So did you go along the river that night?

I won't say anymore. I don't feel good.
I'm tired.

Let's take a break.

- He wants to go.
- We can keep him in custody for 48 hours.

We'll have the DNA results in a few hours.

- Vukovic will be in touch.
- Yes.

- The earlier the better.
- Yeah.

The arrest is on social media.

We'll be accused of racial profiling soon.

- Oh, shit.
- So we have to present some facts soon.

- You have to go, right?
- Yeah.

So...

We won't give out any more details
so we don't harm the investigation.

OK, I'll speak to the press officer.

- What's up?
- He has precarious immigration status.

His asylum application
hasn't been processed.

He's been in the accommodation 15 months
and caused no trouble.

He arrived without papers.

The police took fingerprints
and photos at that time.

But the check against Eurodac
came up negative.

And?

He could be lying about everything.

That's not relevant now.

What matters is the DNA and if it was him.

- Sorry, I have to go.
- Thanks.

See you later.

- See you later.
- Yeah.

God...

Do we have anything to eat here?

Ah! Amazing.

Wonderful!

I was always against
letting so many people in.

Pardon?

Opening the borders.

We can't seal ourselves off.

If it was him,
it was all of us, again.

"We"?

All Afghans, all Iranians, all Syrians.

- If it were a Black man...
- It'd be all "foreigners".

People who think that way
don't make a distinction.

Never mind. This isn't about me.

First we have to find out if it was him.

- Ms Vukovic?
- The DNA test on that trace is positive.

- Seriously?
- Almost certainly.

That's great.

Listen to me.

I have some news from forensics.

The DNA check on Hamid Rahimi

shows that the traces found on Josefine
and at the murder scene are his.

So we can conclude
that he is the killer in the Schora case.

- Thank you.
- What about Stefanie Berghoff?

Rahimi is excluded as the killer
in the homicide in Buchingen.

None of his DNA at the scene
and his alibi is secure.

- And what is that?
- An incident in the shared kitchen.

He got hurt.

- Several witnesses, including
a paramedic. - Incident or accident?

Doesn't matter.

The fact is, we have two killers.
The incident room remains in place.

Let's keep at it, everyone.

A brutal killer is still on the loose.

Rahimi was in one
of those awful camps in Greece.

That fits with our timeline.

Did he commit any crimes there?

A suicide attempt.

I'll pass this on
to the public prosecutor.

- Navid.
- Yeah?

I suggest we concentrate
on Stefanie now, yeah?

I looked at all the petrol station videos.

Nothing.

No black Opel Zafira
with Lauburg number plates.

I checked all the call logins
on the local mobile phone mast.

I'm sorry.

- Truly.
- OK.

- That was wrong of me. Yeah?
- Yeah.

- What was wrong?
- Nothing. Have a good evening.

I don't get to go home.

I'm going to see a caller who told me
that someone told him

who killed Stefanie Berghoff.

It was a voice coming
from the drain in his sink.

He recorded it on an 8-track tape.
How excited I am!

- You always take the best bits.
- Watch it!

See you!

I found something!

Here.

That smells good!

- Hi, Dad!
- Yes?

Listen, Bausching says
the gas burner is broken.

I don't have much time. Decide quickly.
A new one or fix it?

- I'll have to think about it.
- OK, but don't take forever.

Course not!

- Mr Bausching?
- Yeah?

- I just spoke to my father...
- Yeah.

- He can't decide yet. He'll be in touch.
- OK. Yeah...

Look at this.

It's full of cracks.

It could be fixed
but I'd order a new one.

Yes, I understand.

But I can't make that decision.

But thank you for coming by so late.

- OK, no problem.
- Yeah?

- I'm sorry you were met with a shut door.
- Yeah! I help where I can.

Listen, you were
in the search party, weren't you?

We all looked for Stefanie.

But I'm glad it was the professionals
that found her.

Are you going to catch him?

That's my colleague.

You can leave me a key if you like.

Local shopkeeper asks a customer
from out of town: "Can I get you owt?"

She says, "What did you say?"

"Can I get you owt?"

"What?" He thinks, "How would
a posh person say it?" And so he says:

"May I retrieve you owt?"

It's fun, your job, right?

Yes... Sometimes more, sometimes less.

Still haven't found
Stefanie's killer though.

No, but we're working hard
every day to do so.

Check out the refugee hostels.

We're looking for a murderer,
not a refugee.

Does one exclude the other?

Do you know we have the same
crime rate as 40 years ago?

Statistics are great.

And do you know that people have had
a bad feeling for many years?

- Well... we all have feelings.
- Yes.

None of it matters, right?
It's all shitty.

Shitty globalisation, shitty immigration.

- Why not shitty police?
- Calm down.

- Michi, that'll do.
- Yes, yes.

Here's to the police and their feelings!

Chill out, Michi.

DAY 36

Hello?

- I hope I didn't wake you?
- No, no.

You're in the lab early. Any news?

We've finished checking
Stefanie Berghoff's clothes.

I have more information about traces
on the victim's running shirt.

Very close to where it's torn,

on the waistband of the trousers,
and on another tear on the knickers.

The traces can't be explained
by normal or accidental contact.

OK.

The traces all come
from the victim's husband.

Barbara, he's the husband.

Of course we'd find his traces
on her clothes, her body.

- That's done with.
- We follow every clue.

We take it to the end. No discussions.

Thank you. Hang on a minute, please.

Could you come over for a sec?

The broken phone display shards
found yesterday.

Based on material and structure,
they're probably from a phone

that is at least
the same model as Stefanie's.

I think it's hers

and that it was broken right there.

- By the old boundary stone?
- Yeah.

Stefanie came this way.
That's our crime scene.

And that's where the phone was broken.
Probably after the murder.

- And?
- That route leads to Buchingen.

If our killer didn't walk back
past the scene,

it's likely he went back to Buchingen.

That's the route she took.
She was found there.

Broken bits of phone.

Berghoff house.

You want to arrest him because of that?

It's not about what I want
but what's right.

I didn't want a biscuit.

- Great!
- That's it!

What's up? Come on!

Harder!

- Hey, Frank. Is Tobias here?
- Hi.

- Yes.
- Take him off.

It's only a practice.

Tobias!

Come over here.

Did I say to take a break?

- Bausche, need help with your boots?
- Hi, Thomas.

- What are you doing here?
- Mr Berghoff, you're under arrest.

- Come on.
- What is this, Tom?

- Come on, Tobias.
- Are you serious?

Got a bag?

Suddenly I'm a suspect.
Weeks after it happened?

What do you think you've found?
It can't be anything.

- There's nothing to find.
- Tobias, we don't just arrest people.

- Oh, yeah?
- Yeah.

So you're trying to break me?
You under pressure now? Listen...

I'm already broken!

- Any more questions?
- That Sunday...

- What was the precise route you searched?
- Why?

Show me the route you went.

Here. That way...

And back.

Stefanie's base layer
had a small tear in it.

I know.

I mean, I noticed it when tidying up.

Well, I...

I said she could buy a new one

but she didn't mind.

Right...

Let's take a short break.

Ten minutes.

- I'm just about to...
- Please, listen to me!

You will have to... Yes!

- No problem.
- They'll come back...

Sh! You're too loud.
All right. I'll just note that down.

At 4 o'clock. OK.

Great. I will.

And has that phenomenon
happened again since?

Left.

This way.

Turn around.

Remove your shoes.

Ring if you need anything.

- Here. Watch out.
- Thanks. My colleague is coming.

Yeah! Thanks.

So, neither the wrench

nor the crowbar
from Tobias Berghoff's garage

are the possible murder weapon.

I did some research relating to Tobias.
Got a minute?

- Don't you want some pizza?
- Not right now. I'll wait.

Be there in a minute.

I took another look at the shards.
This is how they were found.

See this red stuff?

It's... wait for it...
sand from the Sahara. Yeah?

Really sticky. It occurred to me
because I had it on my car once.

I spoke to the meteorological office

and they said on the Sunday
when Stefanie was killed

lots of Sahara dust in the air
got mixed with the rain.

It's known as "blood rain".
You can see it clearly here.

The Sunday she was killed
it rained here at around 4 p.m.

This red dust is stuck to the shards,

which means the phone must have
got broken before 4 p.m.

when Tobias Berghoff
was still playing football.

- And it didn't rain later on?
- No. Not that Sunday.

And the phenomenon hasn't occurred since.
So that means...

the red stuff got there
on the day of the murder.

We'll let Tobias Berghoff go.

Thank you.

It's a purely objective decision.

What's happened to you, Klinge?

- That was real police work.
- Yeah.

...the case against the victim's husband
could not be substantiated.

The police are continuing to ask
for any relevant leads.

"Task Force Sunday
is groping in the dark."

They're right, aren't they?

DAY 57

- What's up, Navid?
- Here.

I used criteria to downsize
the cases to a useable number.

I limited it to the past year.
Blunt force,

brutal attack,

crimes committed on Sundays
and close to motorways.

- Why close to motorways?
- We have no suspect close to home.

It might be someone from elsewhere
who vanishes after the crime.

- And why Sundays?
- Because it was a Sunday.

"Task Force Sunday", that's why.

Yes.

- And?
- Nothing.

Then I used those criteria
to look back three years.

- Also nothing.
- Navid...

- I'm having trouble listening to this.
- Hang on.

Then I expanded it to five years.

You'd better not be about to say
"Also nothing".

I am.

Just kidding. I got something.
Last page.

Last page...

A murder in Austria.
Four years ago in Steinach.

They never solved the case
despite finding the weapon.

- An iron bar.
- An iron bar?

The possible weapon in our case.

And that's not all.

They're waiting for your call, boss.

Off the pathway, but not hidden.

On a Sunday.

Blunt force trauma.

And the injuries in the genital area

are similar to those in our case.

The same MO.

Seems that way.

Hanschitz here.

Ah, Ms Kramer! Glad to hear from you.
Yes, I know.

Go ahead.

How did he do it?

Well, with his hands, probably,
according to our pathologist.

We were only able to gather
a tiny amount of DNA.

We got a relatively clear DNA sample.

- Could we have it?
- Of course!

You'd do us a favour. We're short-staffed.

I know how that feels.

My colleague Ms Kohler
will take care of it.

Morning, Tanja.

Early start or late finish?

Come over here, Hatem.

Have I done something wrong?

Do you see what I see
or am I getting it wrong?

Wow!

- Morning!
- Morning.

- Hello?
- Vukovic here.

It's the same perpetrator.

There's no margin for interpretation
this time.

OK...

- Here.
- Oh! Thanks.

OK?

- Is everyone here?
- Morning!

Good morning. Quiet, please.
We finally have something to go on.

Trace SB 10.4,
which we weren't able to identify,

is the same as the DNA...
Move aside, please.

It is the same as the DNA
from a crime scene

in the Austrian town of Steinach.

The victim there was a young French
exchange student, Sylvie Peyrot.

She was also battered to death.

- Austria?
- Yes!

Stefanie Berghoff
was clearly not his first victim.

- He had already killed.
- When?

- Four years ago.
- Four years!

- He restrained himself a long time.
- Or he left no traces.

We exit here.

Yeah.

- Ms. Kramer? How do you do?
- Yes. Hello.

- Hanschitz. Pleased to meet you.
Mr Riedle? - That's right.

- Kohler.
- May I...

She was discovered pretty quickly.

The killer didn't even bother to hide her.

I've never seen anything like it.

- Hello.
- Hello.

My God. So young!

Blunt force.

- Found the murder weapon?
- Nothing.

We calculated the flow rate
of the River Brinn that night

as well as the approximate weight
and shape of the murder weapon

but we didn't know

whether and when the murder weapon
ended up in the river.

- That was a remarkable success.
- That's it!

We found traces of the victim's blood
on the iron bar,

which meant progress for us.

For her parents it just meant their girl
was clubbed to death with an iron rod.

- Do you know what it would be used for?
- Hydraulic equipment.

Vehicle jacks, heavy-duty machinery,
lorry cab tilt hydraulics, for example.

- That sort of thing.
- And it wasn't completed rape either?

Correct, but the way Sylvie was found
suggests a sexually motivated crime.

We worked with French police.
It may have been a relationship crime.

She'd only recently returned
from her holidays. But...

that didn't get us anywhere.

Two countries. The two crime scenes
are hundreds of kilometres apart.

It suggests the killer gets around a lot.

Maybe he has to drive around a lot
in his job.

It's out in the open.
It's impossible nobody saw him.

Here. This is where she was lying.
Completely uncovered.

You realized it might have been a trucker?

Very quickly.

We collected
all the toll data from that weekend.

Almost 50,000 datasets.

The iron bar probably came from a truck
but we couldn't find out what make.

- What did you do with the data?
- Tried to limit it, with little success.

And the bar no longer had its purpose.
It might not have been used in years.

Analysing the data takes more manpower.
How big is your homicide commission?

- There are 40 of us.
- Oh!

Well... for the time being.

50,000 datasets. That'd keep
Ms Kohler busy until she retires.

And what if we help the Austrians?
Hanschitz clearly wants to work with us.

I would if I were him.
Know how much work that is?

We need those damn toll data!

Data protection laws apply in Germany.

But they can use them to prosecute.
They're in Austria.

The killer probably drove
this exact route.

You can talk to Irlinger.

Yes, happy to do so.

How can I explain that we're helping
the Austrians solve a cold case?

Using data we might not even
be allowed to use?

The legislation is tricky.
I don't know if there are precedents.

I think we should explore
all the options.

If that's possible, why haven't
the Austrians done it themselves?

No idea. But the fact is the Austrians
closed their incident room long ago.

- They could reopen it given new evidence.
- But the case is four years old.

Hidden in those 50,000 datasets
is probably the man

who killed Sylvie Peyrot
and Stefanie Berghoff.

We really have a chance now.

OK. Fine.

Oh, sorry!

- There.
- Thank you.

Right...

This is a copy of the hard drive.

With warmest regards from Ms Kohler.

It's not easy to hand it over.

- It's really not easy.
- I get it.

Well...

If you need anything else from us,
let us know.

- Keep us updated if you can.
- Of course.

If this works, I'll be thrilled.

- Bye.
- I'll see you out.

OK.

Is that your own chair from home?

Yes.

- I knew it.
- What?

You're always on your computer at home.
"Pew, pew! Shoot him!"

No. Brutal killer chess at the very most.

Want a ride?

My, my, my.
An accident or malice aforethought?

- Pure idiocy.
- Hey!

How do you do it?

- A special program?
- There is none.

We don't need one.
We use the standard tools.

My God! What are all those numbers?

It's the toll data. Size of the truck,
country of origin, trucking company.

When and where it was recorded.

The time and place.

- So on and so forth.
- You two are completely crazy.

She's right.

Get out of my snuggery.

Pass it on.

This was the photofit
the Austrians produced.

A witness saw this man coming up
the embankment on the night of the murder.

He assumed he was just relieving himself.

Looks like my cousin, my bank advisor,
and my mother's physiotherapist in one.

Why do you need a bank advisor?

Our Austrian colleagues noticed that,
and, yes, it did no good.

That's why we're not releasing it.
We'll concentrate on the toll data.

We'll also research

which trucking companies regularly have
routes going past Steinach and Buchingen.

Are there companies that cooperate
or who have or had branches near them?

We primarily cover Italy and Germany.

We deliver freight to ports.

We're part of the European network
and work with native speakers.

Genoa, Milan...

Our investigations
have to go back four years.

Are there sub-contractors
who have gone bust in the meantime?

Truck stops.

We have to speak to employees,
find out the restroom operators.

Is there anybody who noticed anything
at any relevant time?

That's a lot.

Yes, it's a lot.

But any crossovers
represent our best chance.

Are any names, etc. repeated? Anything
that stands out, any observations?

We'll have a detailed briefing
every morning.

Nothing is too small
to be mentioned, OK?

And that won't happen

if you always copy the number on the left
before inserting it.

OK. I can manage that.

- Otherwise call me.
- Si!

- Thanks.
- No problem.

DATA SYNCHRONIZING - PLEASE WAIT...

Maybe we should use
a database application.

That takes too much time. We can manage.
We just have to concentrate.

"Concentrate."

- Evening.
- Evening.

Do you recognize this person?

No, sorry.

Ever seen him?

DAY 100

- Shit!
- What is it?

I skipped a damn line!

- It's OK. Calm down.
- I'm cracking up here.

Bernd, listen...

- We've tried the standard tools...
- Yes. I insisted. It was my fault.

Good, then we're agreed.

New plan: we use a database application.

- Where will we get that?
- I'll write one.

- You?
- Me.

- Really?
- Yes. And you take a break.

Are you sure?

Take a walk for five minutes
and return as real Bernd.

Yes, I understand...

Yes, I understand. Yes!

I got it!

I'm not an idiot!

Shit!

What a stupid arsehole!

"Staffing levels"! Kiss my arse.

- That wasn't five minutes.
- Quality over quantity.

- Am I supposed to understand?
- You couldn't anyway.

OK. Right.

Here we have
the results of the questioning

of truck stop employees
working that weekend.

No one remembers anything of note.

Too many people come in and out,

buy overpriced chocolate bars and leave.

And here, the murder weapon.

No truck manufacturer can identify it,
and if we don't know the make,

we have a massive problem because
there are thousands of potential trucks.

So...

What's up with you?

- I'm going to close the incident room.
- Uh, what?

- When? Huh?
- End of next week.

I can't justify the staffing levels.

We need something tangible.

Are you playing mother?

I'd like to spend less time with you.

- We have a toxic relationship, Bernd.
- So it's you eating all the jam biscuits?

- They're the best.
- No.

How far have you got?
Can you report first tomorrow?

- On Monday, we thought.
- What more will you know then?

We wanted to do a presentation
so people understand.

No, do it tomorrow.
Anyone who doesn't understand can ask.

See you tomorrow. Thank you, both!

- Thanks.
- Yep.

We'll keep going,
as an investigation team.

I had hoped
this wouldn't happen again.

What?

That I can't solve a case.
