1 00:00:50,052 --> 00:00:53,795 Thank you for coming. I'm Greer, Jeff's sister. 2 00:00:53,892 --> 00:00:57,984 Ray Bell. I was a friend of your brother's at WSU. 3 00:00:58,852 --> 00:01:01,755 - You just missed your classmates. - I ran into them. 4 00:01:01,828 --> 00:01:03,868 We're gonna get together later. 5 00:01:03,973 --> 00:01:08,032 I... I just can't imagine the gang without Jeff. 6 00:01:09,830 --> 00:01:13,725 Yeah. He was always talking about his college friends. 7 00:01:13,798 --> 00:01:16,668 He was always telling us about his family. 8 00:01:16,775 --> 00:01:18,750 - Really? - Yeah. 9 00:01:19,335 --> 00:01:22,434 It'd be really nice for my mother to hear that right now. 10 00:01:22,535 --> 00:01:25,765 - She's kind of falling apart. - Of course. 11 00:01:53,163 --> 00:01:58,401 Mom? This is Ray Bell. He's a good friend of Jeff's from college. 12 00:01:58,474 --> 00:02:03,592 Mrs Cort. I was just telling Greer how devoted Jeff was to all of you. 13 00:02:08,364 --> 00:02:10,731 It's OK. 14 00:02:13,261 --> 00:02:15,235 It's OK. 15 00:02:18,061 --> 00:02:20,036 It's OK. 16 00:02:23,918 --> 00:02:25,609 It's OK. 17 00:02:32,398 --> 00:02:34,603 I hate to do this to you. 18 00:02:34,703 --> 00:02:40,519 It'll be a beautiful ceremony tomorrow. Why not go home now and get some rest? 19 00:04:59,134 --> 00:05:01,501 - Thanks for coming so fast. - Hope I can help. 20 00:05:01,599 --> 00:05:06,269 You and me both. Son died three days ago in a car crash. 21 00:05:06,335 --> 00:05:09,499 The mother was found murdered after the kid's wake. 22 00:05:09,599 --> 00:05:12,949 Can't get the father to stop yelling long enough to find out anything. 23 00:05:13,023 --> 00:05:18,872 - Anger's a very appropriate response. - Yeah. Just not very helpful. 24 00:05:20,641 --> 00:05:27,068 Look, Catherine... I know I've been skeptical about Victim Services in the past, but... 25 00:05:27,137 --> 00:05:29,952 I'll see what I can do. 26 00:05:33,698 --> 00:05:37,528 - Who are you? - I'm Catherine Black from Victim Assistance. 27 00:05:37,634 --> 00:05:41,791 - What, a counselor? - That's part of what I do. 28 00:05:42,659 --> 00:05:45,114 - Get that lieutenant back here. - Dad... 29 00:05:45,187 --> 00:05:49,017 - Get him now! - Lt Bletcher asked me to talk with you. 30 00:05:49,124 --> 00:05:52,736 - He thought I might help. - I don't need help. I need to see my wife. 31 00:05:52,837 --> 00:05:55,870 - You haven't claimed the body? - Don't they tell you anything? 32 00:05:55,940 --> 00:05:59,236 - Dad, please. - Her body is not government property. 33 00:05:59,301 --> 00:06:02,618 Mr Cort, you're absolutely right. 34 00:06:03,941 --> 00:06:09,506 But when a crime like this occurs... the victim is considered evidence. 35 00:06:10,918 --> 00:06:15,075 Unfortunately some people actually think about her that way. 36 00:06:16,071 --> 00:06:19,999 We were married for 27 years. They won't even let me see her. 37 00:06:23,239 --> 00:06:25,541 You've got to let him see his wife. 38 00:06:26,632 --> 00:06:28,901 I'm notjerking him around here. 39 00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:32,197 She was cut up. Viciously. 40 00:06:32,264 --> 00:06:34,981 All the evidence is under wraps. 41 00:06:35,081 --> 00:06:37,448 It won't be real to him until he sees the body. 42 00:06:37,512 --> 00:06:40,829 I seriously doubt that's the way he wants to remember his wife. 43 00:06:40,905 --> 00:06:45,608 Then don't expect his cooperation. It would help to have him on your side. 44 00:06:45,674 --> 00:06:48,871 I could definitely stand to have someone on my side. 45 00:06:49,674 --> 00:06:54,432 Maybe somebody else should have picked up the phone when you called this morning. 46 00:06:55,467 --> 00:06:59,264 The coroner wanted the woman out of here before the bugs got worse. 47 00:06:59,371 --> 00:07:02,022 Peter Watts is taking a look at her. 48 00:07:05,036 --> 00:07:09,771 Made quite a few footprint castings. Mostly grave diggers. 49 00:07:09,837 --> 00:07:12,652 It'll take a while to sort them all out. 50 00:07:15,405 --> 00:07:18,821 The body was covered with soil and organic matter. 51 00:07:18,925 --> 00:07:21,511 Hair and Fiber bagged some samples. 52 00:07:21,614 --> 00:07:27,146 A 50-year-old woman standing at her son's grave. Hurts just to think about it. 53 00:07:28,591 --> 00:07:31,046 - Calla lily. - She brought it here. 54 00:07:34,159 --> 00:07:36,046 Frank. 55 00:07:40,656 --> 00:07:44,813 Nothing very useful off the body. She didn't have time to put up a struggle. 56 00:07:44,880 --> 00:07:48,077 - What about the son? - Run-of-the-mill tragedy. 57 00:07:48,176 --> 00:07:52,552 Star running-back celebrates big win with a blood alcohol of.27. 58 00:07:52,657 --> 00:07:56,170 - Hits a tree at 60 miles an hour. - Anyone else in the car? 59 00:07:56,241 --> 00:07:58,248 No, he was solo. 60 00:07:58,321 --> 00:08:01,289 I don't think the son's in the picture. 61 00:08:01,362 --> 00:08:05,290 It's a woman in a secluded place at night. Massive overkill. 62 00:08:05,362 --> 00:08:09,356 - That says random crime of opportunity. - He knew who she was. 63 00:08:10,355 --> 00:08:12,591 Not many housewives make that kind of enemy. 64 00:08:12,691 --> 00:08:17,132 It's not about her. The killer's rage is directed towards someone else. 65 00:08:17,204 --> 00:08:22,474 I agree. The stab wounds were brutal but impersonal. Clustered away from her face. 66 00:08:22,580 --> 00:08:25,876 So he knew who she was, but it wasn't about her? 67 00:08:25,972 --> 00:08:28,362 He sliced her up, but it wasn't directed at her? 68 00:08:29,013 --> 00:08:31,566 Hey, I'm just trying to keep up. 69 00:08:33,366 --> 00:08:36,181 - Do you wanna see the woman's body? - No. The boy's. 70 00:08:39,446 --> 00:08:43,090 I understand, Mr Cort, and we'll make all the arrangements. 71 00:08:43,158 --> 00:08:45,166 Thank you. I appreciate it. 72 00:08:51,256 --> 00:08:55,479 Mr Cort has decided to bury Jeff back east by his grandparents. 73 00:08:56,504 --> 00:08:59,057 Or do you have some claim on him too? 74 00:08:59,128 --> 00:09:04,563 Mr Cort, Greer... I'm sorry we got off to such a bad start. 75 00:09:04,664 --> 00:09:06,934 I'd like you to meet Frank Black. 76 00:09:07,001 --> 00:09:10,001 He's a special consultant on your case. 77 00:09:11,001 --> 00:09:14,198 I'm very sorry about your loss. 78 00:09:14,298 --> 00:09:17,462 We just want to find who did this to my wife. 79 00:09:17,530 --> 00:09:21,044 I'd like to talk to you about that when you're ready. 80 00:09:23,387 --> 00:09:25,656 We're ready now. 81 00:09:25,723 --> 00:09:29,204 I understand quite a few people came by yesterday. 82 00:09:29,308 --> 00:09:33,302 Yeah. Jeff was... loved. 83 00:09:33,724 --> 00:09:36,855 Were there any strangers? People you didn't know? 84 00:09:38,780 --> 00:09:41,017 A group of his college friends came. 85 00:09:41,085 --> 00:09:45,657 Dad, after they left there was this other guy from WSU. 86 00:09:45,725 --> 00:09:48,443 Um... Ray Bell. 87 00:09:49,726 --> 00:09:53,523 - I never heard of him. - I introduced him to Mom. 88 00:10:09,408 --> 00:10:13,020 This stranger - was he standing close to your brother? 89 00:10:14,593 --> 00:10:17,211 - At one point. - Can you show me? 90 00:10:21,825 --> 00:10:23,799 Like this maybe. 91 00:10:25,698 --> 00:10:29,692 I know this is difficult, but we're looking for something that's changed. 92 00:10:31,170 --> 00:10:35,960 Something that wasn't here before. Or something missing. 93 00:10:39,715 --> 00:10:43,457 His pin. Someone stole his team pin. 94 00:10:56,581 --> 00:10:59,167 You blew curfew last night. 95 00:10:59,269 --> 00:11:00,446 Hey! 96 00:11:00,549 --> 00:11:04,543 - Does anyone around here ever knock? - Did you hear what I said? 97 00:11:04,614 --> 00:11:06,338 Yeah. I'm sorry. 98 00:11:06,438 --> 00:11:10,116 Yeah, you're always sorry. Who puts his butt on the line and checks you in? 99 00:11:10,598 --> 00:11:12,770 - You do. - Who takes care of you? 100 00:11:12,870 --> 00:11:14,943 I know. I got hungry, I headed out. 101 00:11:15,015 --> 00:11:18,910 You think I don't know what you're up to? You think it's not obvious? 102 00:11:18,983 --> 00:11:21,983 - Let go. - What's this? Where did this come from? 103 00:11:22,055 --> 00:11:26,790 - Someone gave it to me. - Nobody gave you anything. 104 00:11:26,856 --> 00:11:30,118 What are you even after out there? Do you ever think of that? 105 00:11:31,593 --> 00:11:36,678 You're in bed tonight at lights out or else. I'm not covering for you anymore. 106 00:11:40,778 --> 00:11:45,186 "So it's nice to go far and it's nice to go wide, 107 00:11:45,258 --> 00:11:49,055 but when 'gators are biting you need someplace to hide. " 108 00:11:50,635 --> 00:11:54,912 "So wherever you do go, wherever you roam, 109 00:11:54,987 --> 00:12:01,153 your family still loves you, you can always... go home. " 110 00:12:03,916 --> 00:12:06,534 She wanted to wait up for you. 111 00:12:11,949 --> 00:12:14,764 How's the Cort family holding up? 112 00:12:14,829 --> 00:12:18,125 I don't know how to help them understand this. 113 00:12:18,190 --> 00:12:22,533 Son dead. Mom butchered. It's like Job. 114 00:12:23,022 --> 00:12:25,030 Job endured. 115 00:12:25,102 --> 00:12:28,747 I'm expecting a collapse after they see the mother tomorrow. 116 00:12:28,847 --> 00:12:32,360 - Anything I can tell them? - Tell them we're still looking. 117 00:12:32,431 --> 00:12:36,360 Frank, I don't want to add to the pressure on you. 118 00:12:36,432 --> 00:12:40,262 You're not. It comes from the outside, the depravity. 119 00:12:41,104 --> 00:12:45,196 - You two make it possible to go on. - Hi, Daddy. 120 00:12:45,265 --> 00:12:47,272 Hi, sweetheart. 121 00:12:49,489 --> 00:12:51,628 What's 'pravity? 122 00:13:19,252 --> 00:13:23,442 This is the obituary of the boy who died. It appeared two days ago. 123 00:13:24,404 --> 00:13:28,780 - Here's Ray Bell. - So he read the kid's obituary. 124 00:13:28,886 --> 00:13:30,991 He's done it before. 125 00:13:31,093 --> 00:13:33,549 He just picks one out of the paper and shows up? 126 00:13:33,653 --> 00:13:37,877 - Why go to a funeral you don't have to? - To watch people suffer. 127 00:13:37,974 --> 00:13:41,357 - He didn't watch, he participated. - You got this from one obituary? 128 00:13:41,430 --> 00:13:44,911 - Not the obituary, the lapel pin. - What about the lapel pin? 129 00:13:45,014 --> 00:13:47,949 He takes souvenirs from each funeral. 130 00:13:48,055 --> 00:13:52,845 His performance with the mother was rehearsed. Skillful, honed by repetition. 131 00:13:52,920 --> 00:13:56,368 If anything ended like this, we'd have heard about it. 132 00:13:56,440 --> 00:14:01,678 Last night he crossed the line into murderous violence - possibly for the first time. 133 00:14:01,752 --> 00:14:03,727 Next time will be easier for him. 134 00:15:00,703 --> 00:15:04,860 Oh, I'm sorry for intruding. I thought that... 135 00:15:06,496 --> 00:15:09,278 I don't know what I thought. 136 00:15:10,496 --> 00:15:12,471 Are you OK? 137 00:15:14,176 --> 00:15:16,795 Right. That's a stupid question. 138 00:15:20,866 --> 00:15:24,925 I'm Tina. David and I were friends at college. 139 00:15:25,025 --> 00:15:27,262 Eric. 140 00:15:27,330 --> 00:15:31,487 - I guess you knew David from around here. - Since the fourth grade. 141 00:15:32,098 --> 00:15:36,441 Oh. Oh, you gotta tell me what he was like as a kid. 142 00:15:36,547 --> 00:15:38,521 He... 143 00:15:40,772 --> 00:15:44,155 - Are you really OK? - Oh... 144 00:15:44,260 --> 00:15:47,043 When they say it hurts, they really mean it. 145 00:15:47,140 --> 00:15:52,542 Yeah. Yeah, it's actual pain. It's like you've been stabbed or something. 146 00:15:54,149 --> 00:15:57,215 I think this house is getting to me. 147 00:15:57,285 --> 00:16:00,897 - Too many memories? - Yeah. I'd better go. 148 00:16:02,982 --> 00:16:04,956 Do you need a lift? 149 00:16:05,062 --> 00:16:09,023 Um... I was leaving soon anyway. 150 00:16:09,094 --> 00:16:15,041 And, the truth is, I'm driving his mother crazy just being here, so... 151 00:16:16,295 --> 00:16:19,973 I could show you where David and I went fishing when we were kids. 152 00:16:20,072 --> 00:16:23,039 David fishing? No way. 153 00:16:35,689 --> 00:16:39,465 David could skip anything. I remember one time we found this... 154 00:16:41,098 --> 00:16:43,105 Tina? 155 00:16:43,178 --> 00:16:47,619 Oh, I'm...

Some colored gentleman caught a rainbow this big a few days back, 165 00:18:13,076 --> 00:18:15,051 so I figured maybe I was due. 166 00:18:52,184 --> 00:18:54,388 "Stop looking. " 167 00:18:57,208 --> 00:18:59,827 Does he mean us? 168 00:19:47,646 --> 00:19:51,476 We found two quality partials. The same index finger. 169 00:19:51,550 --> 00:19:55,064 Ester fuming developed the images, which we composited into one print. 170 00:19:55,166 --> 00:19:59,128 - We're expediting it through AFIS. - That bow was underwater. 171 00:19:59,199 --> 00:20:02,395 We've lifted prints off bones buried 50 years. 172 00:20:03,072 --> 00:20:05,308 - Detective Bletcher. - Communication. 173 00:20:05,408 --> 00:20:07,775 - What is he trying to tell us? - I don't know. 174 00:20:07,840 --> 00:20:11,069 - There's a message on the first body. - There was nothing. 175 00:20:11,169 --> 00:20:14,038 The carving is too elaborate for first time out. 176 00:20:14,112 --> 00:20:16,763 The acute angle of the S. He's thought about it. 177 00:20:17,569 --> 00:20:20,766 Between the stab wounds and the autopsy, it may be gone. 178 00:20:20,833 --> 00:20:25,209 It's there. Maybe done hastily. Even an afterthought. 179 00:20:26,274 --> 00:20:28,511 I'll take a look. 180 00:20:29,314 --> 00:20:31,681 Great. Good work. 181 00:20:31,779 --> 00:20:36,318 I think we got a hit. James Dickerson.
