6A-47. WE ARE CODE 6
AT THE PROWLER COMPLAINT.

[ INDISTINCT RADIO CHATTER ]

[ KNOCK ON DOOR ]

Man: MERCH, AROUND BACK!
HE'S RUNNING!

Man 2:
47 REQUESTING ASSISTANCE.

WE ARE IN FOOT PURSUIT.

SUBJECT IS WHITE, MALE,
WEARING DARK CLOTHING.

I NEED A PERIMETER SET UP,

AND BE ADVISED
WE HAVE NOT CLEARED THE HOUSE.

[ SIREN WAILING ]

[ INDISTINCT RADIO CHATTER ]

[ DOG BARKING ]

[ DOOR OPENS ]

6A-32
REQUESTING PARAMEDICS.

WE'VE GOT A WOMAN DOWN
IN THE HOUSE.

[ DOGS BARKING ]

[ DOG BARKS ]

[ INDISTINCT RADIO CHATTER ]

EVENING, GENTLEMEN.

HAVE WE BEEN
IN THE HOUSE YET?

UH, NO, THE, UH,
DOG HANDLERS

DON'T WANT TO CONTAMINATE
THE CRIME SCENE

BEFORE THE K-9 SEARCH
IS COMPLETE.

SO IN THE MEANTIME, WE GOT TAO
AND SANCHEZ KNOCKING ON DOORS.

FLYNN WROTE UP
A SEARCH WARRANT.

WE FOUND A JUDGE A FEW BLOCKS
AWAY THAT WILL SIGN IT.

WELL, THAT'S LUCKY.
WHAT HAPPENED?

THE, UH, NEIGHBOR OVER THERE
CALLED IN A PROWLER

AROUND 10:30 THIS EVENING.

RESPONDING OFFICERS
KNOCK ONE TIME,

SEE THE SUSPECT RUN
FROM THE BACK OF THE HOUSE.

THEY, UH, CALL IT IN,
SET UP A PERIMETER.

ADDITIONAL UNIT ARRIVES, ENTERS
THROUGH THE BACK OF THE HOUSE

TO SEARCH AND CLEAR IT,
FINDS THE BODY INSIDE.

PARAMEDICS PRONOUNCED HER DEAD
10 MINUTES AGO.

WHO IS SHE?

JESSICA --
JESSICA SOMETHING.

SHE ONLY MOVED IN
A COUPLE OF MONTHS AGO.

SHE SEEMED LIKE
A REAL NICE YOUNG WOMAN.

WE KEPT MEANING
TO ASK HER OVER FOR DINNER.

Man:
All units, stand by.

We have an alert
at the back of 632 Devon.

[ DOG BARKING ]

HANDS!
SHOW ME YOUR HANDS!

[ BARKING CONTINUES ]

GET DOWN
ON THE GROUND NOW!

[ INDISTINCT RADIO CHATTER ]

S.I.D.'s GOT
A 15-MINUTE E.T.A.

WATCH OUT FOR
THE POPCORN THERE, CHIEF.

SO, IT LOOKS LIKE
SHE WAS ON HER LAPTOP,

PROBABLY HEARD A SOUND,
PUT THE TV ON PAUSE TO LISTEN.

THEN
SHE SAW HER INTRUDER

AND BOLTED
FROM THE COUCH.

HE GRABS HER HERE.

NOW, SHE'S IN
PRETTY GOOD SHAPE,

SO SHE PUTS UP
SOME KIND OF A STRUGGLE

AND THEN TRIES TO ESCAPE.

SO HE GRABS HER HAIR
AT THE BACK OF HER HEAD --

SO SHE WAS RUNNING AWAY.

RIGHT, AND THEN FLUNG HER AROUND
ONTO THE COFFEE TABLE,

GIVING HER
THAT GASH ON HER HEAD.

THEN...
PINS HER DOWN AND, UH --

TORE OFF HER UNDERWEAR.
YES, I SEE.

[ CLICKS TONGUE ]

THE, UH,
OFFICERS WHO FOUND HER

SAID THAT THEY FOUND THAT PILLOW
THERE ON HER FACE,

LIKE SHE HAD BEEN
SMOTHERED.

PROBABLY USED IT
TO KEEP HER QUIET

WHEN THEY KNOCKED
ON THE DOOR.

THEN WHY DID HE RUN?

SHE WAS UPDATING HER WEB PAGE,
CHIEF. CHECK IT OUT.

IT'S THE LAST THING
SHE WROTE.

"MISSED HOME TODAY,
BUT I'M BETTER NOW.

"UNPACKED SOME PICTURES,
PUT THEM OUT. FEELS GOOD.

"GONNA BE STRANGE
CELEBRATING

"WITHOUT MOM'S
STRAWBERRY CAKE TOMORROW,

"BUT I LIKE IT HERE,

AND ONLY TWO MORE WEEKS
UNTIL --"

TWO MORE WEEKS
UNTIL WHAT?

TWO WEEKS TILL HER FIANCé
JOINS HER.

IT'S IN HER BIRTHDAY CARD.

"JESS, STARTED PACKING
MY THINGS.

"CAN'T WAIT FOR THE MOVE.

"MISS YOU. SO PROUD.

"HAPPY BIRTHDAY.
LOVE, PETE.

P.S. SALLY WANTS
HER TUMMY SCRATCHED."

SALLY MUST BE THEIR DOG.

Flynn: HER NAME'S
JESSICA GOODALL.

SHE'S FROM JOPLIN,
MISSOURI.

AND TOMORROW
SHE WAS GOING TO TURN 30.

DID SOMEONE OPEN THIS DOOR?
IT'S UNLOCKED.

WELL,
WE ALL CAME IN THE BACK.

MAYBE JESSICA
FORGOT TO LOCK IT.

A WOMAN WHO JUST MOVED HERE
FROM MISSOURI

DOES NOT FORGET
TO LOCK HER DOOR AT NIGHT.

MAYBE SHE OPENED IT
FOR HER ATTACKER.

Sanchez: CHIEF,
I FOUND THE POINT OF ENTRY!

OR NOT. YOU KNOW WHAT?
I'M TIRED OF THESE SLIP-UPS.

WHETHER IT'S THE CORONER,
THE PARAMEDICS,

OR ONE OF OUR OFFICERS --
OPEN A DOOR BEFORE WE'VE HAD

A CHANCE TO DOCUMENT THE SCENE,
AND YOU'VE LET IN THE DEFENSE.

SERGEANT GABRIEL,
PLEASE FIND OUT

WHO CAME THROUGH HERE,
AND QUICKLY.

THANK YOU.

YOU SEE THIS?

HE CUT THE SCREEN AROUND
THE EDGE FROM RIGHT TO LEFT,

NICE AND SQUARE, AND HE
CLIMBED IN OVER THAT COUNTER.

SHE MUST HAVE LEFT IT
UNLOCKED.

I FIND THAT HARD
TO SWALLOW.

BUT EVEN IF SHE HADN'T
LOCKED THE WINDOW,

HOW WOULD OUR INTRUDER
KNOW THAT?

YOU CAN'T SEE THE LOCK
FROM OUTSIDE.

CHIEF, THEY'RE BRINGING
THE SUSPECT OUT FRONT

FOR THE FIELD SHOWUP.

THANK YOU.

Provenza: "THIS PERSON
IS IN TEMPORARY CUSTODY

"AS A POSSIBLE SUSPECT ONLY.

"AND THE FACT
THAT HE IS IN CUSTODY

DOES NOT INDICATE GUILT,"

EVEN THOUGH HE LOOKS LIKE HELL
FROM HIDING IN A TREE.

[ GRUMBLES ]

"THE PURPOSE
OF THE CONFRONTATION

"IS EITHER TO ELIMINATE
OR IDENTIFY HIM

AS THE PERPETRATOR."

CHIEF.

LIEUTENANT.

LET'S GO. COME ON.

MR. EVANS...

...IS THIS THE MAN
YOU SAW APPROACHING

YOUR NEIGHBOR'S HOUSE?

WELL...

YEAH.

YEAH, I GUESS.

HE SEEMED A LITTLE, UM --
A LITTLE TALLER.

I WASN'T WEARING
MY GLASSES.

MY WIFE WAS THERE,
AND SHE SAW HIM.

MAYBE WE SHOULD BE
TALKING TO YOUR WIFE, THEN.

WELL, SHE'S GONE TO WORK
ALREADY.

SHE'S A NURSE
ON THE NIGHT SHIFT.

ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU.
LIEUTENANT.

THANK YOU, SIR.
RIGHT THIS WAY.

LIEUTENANT PROVENZA,
PLEASE ARRANGE

TO HAVE A LINEUP WITH MRS. EVANS
AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.

Provenza:
MM-HMM.

WHO ARE YOU?

HIS NAME
IS CHRIS DUNLAP.

HE'S 27.
HE LIVES IN BURBANK --

AT LEAST ACCORDING
TO HIS DRIVER'S LICENSE.

THAT'S ALL WE HAVE TO GO ON,
'CAUSE HE HASN'T SAID A WORD.

WELL, I JUST READ
THE LITTLE CRETIN HIS RIGHTS.

Gabriel:
I, UH, RAN HIS NAME.

DUNLAP WAS ARRESTED TWO YEARS
AGO FOR EXPOSING HIMSELF

TO AN 8-YEAR-OLD GIRL
IN A PUBLIC RESTROOM

AND THEN ARRESTED AGAIN
NINE MONTHS AGO

FOR MOLESTING HIS COUSIN'S
13-YEAR-OLD DAUGHTER

WHILE SHE TOOK A SHOWER.

WASN'T CONVICTED
ON EITHER CHARGE.

YEAH, WELL,
THEN, HE MUST BE INNOCENT.

SORRY, CHIEF. THIS TOOK
A LITTLE LONGER THAN I THOUGHT,

BUT I WENT AHEAD
AND ENLARGED A MAP

OF THE 3-SQUARE-MILE AREA
AROUND THE VICTIM.

IN THE LAST SIX MONTHS,
THERE'S BEEN SEVEN OTHER RAPES.

2 OCCURRED
IN THE LAST 20 DAYS.

OF THOSE SEVEN,
SIX MATCH YOUR POINT OF ENTRY

THROUGH AN UNLOCKED
BATHROOM WINDOW.

SCREEN'S CUT RIGHT TO LEFT,
JUST LIKE THIS ONE.

ALL THE VICS BLOND,
IN THEIR 20s, AND LIVING ALONE.

Brenda: ALL RIGHT,
COMMANDER TAYLOR,

WOULD YOU PLEASE
PULL THOSE FILES

AND SEE WHAT PHYSICAL EVIDENCE
WAS COLLECTED?

LIEUTENANT TAO, LET'S RUN
A CREDIT REPORT ON MR. DUNLAP.

LET'S SEE IF WE CAN
WRAP THIS UP TONIGHT.

THANK YOU.

[ DOOR OPENS ]

HI, CHRIS.

I'M DEPUTY CHIEF
BRENDA LEIGH JOHNSON.

IT LOOKS LIKE
YOU GOT PRETTY SCRATCHED UP

CLIMBING THAT TREE.

I'D LIKE TO HAVE SOMEBODY
COME TAKE A LOOK AT YOU,

BUT FIRST
WE NEED TO TALK.

CHRIS, SOMETHING REALLY TERRIBLE
HAPPENED TONIGHT.

AND I WANT YOU TO KNOW THAT I
DON'T THINK IT WAS INTENTIONAL.

IN FACT,
I'M CERTAIN WHAT HAPPENED

TO THAT POOR YOUNG WOMAN
WAS AN ACCIDENT.

HER NAME WAS JESSICA.

SHE JUST MOVED HERE
FROM MISSOURI.

SHE WAS LOOKING FORWARD
TO HER FIANCé JOINING HER

IN A FEW WEEKS
WITH THEIR DOG.

TODAY WAS HER BIRTHDAY.
SHE WAS GONNA BE 30 YEARS OLD.

AND NOW SHE'S NOT.

I NEED TO KNOW
HOW YOU MET HER.

CHRIS, LISTEN TO ME.

I HAVE A WITNESS
WHO WILL IDENTIFY YOU

AS THE PERSON SHE SAW
IN JESSICA'S HOUSE.

MINUTES LATER,
YOU WERE SEEN RUNNING

FROM THAT HOUSE
BY A POLICE OFFICER.

PUT THAT TOGETHER
WITH OUR DOGS --

WHO ARE NEVER WRONG --

FINDING YOU IN A TREE
THREE BLOCKS AWAY,

AND PEOPLE
ARE GONNA START JUMPING

TO ALL SORTS
OF CONCLUSIONS.

NOW, IF YOU HAVE
AN EXPLANATION

FOR WHAT HAPPENED TONIGHT,
I NEED YOU TO TELL ME.

I'M SORRY. I'M SORRY.

OKAY, WHAT? WHAT?
ABOUT WHAT, CHRIS?

WHAT ARE YOU SORRY ABOUT?

[ DOOR OPENS ]

DETECTIVE,
WHY ARE YOU INTERRUPTING ME?

HIS LAWYER'S HERE.

YOU ALREADY
CALLED YOUR LAWYER?

YOU MUST BE
CHIEF JOHNSON.

PHILLIP STROH.
PLEASURE TO MEET YOU.

YOUR CLIENT HAS YOUR NUMBER
ON HIS SPEED DIAL, MR. STROH?

I'VE REPRESENTED CHRIS
BEFORE.

JUST THIS WAY?

YES.

LAST NUMBER DIALED --
11:47 P.M.

SON OF A BITCH
CALLED HIS ATTORNEY

WHEN THE DOGS HAD HIM
UP IN THE TREE.

WHAT IS THE WORLD
COMING TO?

HAM OMELET
AND HOME FRIES.

CHIEF.
I JUST SPOKE TO THE NURSE.

SHE'S ON HER WAY IN
FOR THE LINEUP.

SCRAMBLED EGG WHITES
AND TURKEY BACON.

UH...
THANK YOU, BUZZ.

Tao: I WENT OVER
CHRIS' FINANCIALS.

HE'S GOT
NO CURRENT CREDIT CARDS,

NO LOANS, NO LEASES,
NO BANK ACCOUNTS, NO JOB.

OTHER THAN HIS CELLPHONE,
HE'S PRACTICALLY OFF THE GRID.

YEAH? THANKS, BUZZ.

WELL, SPEAKING OF HIS CELLPHONE,
I DUMPED IT.

THE LITTLE CREEP
HARDLY USES THE THING.

I MEAN, OTHER THAN THE CALL
THAT HE MADE TO HIS ATTORNEY

LAST NIGHT
FROM UP IN THE TREE,

THERE'S A FEW CALLS
TO A DELIVERY COMPANY,

A FEW MORE
TO A TEMP AGENCY,

AND THEN THERE'S A WHOLE BUNCH
TO AN ADDRESS IN BURBANK,

WHICH HAPPENS TO BE
HIS MOTHER'S HOUSE.

WELL, IF HE DIDN'T HAVE A JOB
AND HE DIDN'T HAVE ANY MONEY,

WHAT WAS HE HAVING
DELIVERED?

I'LL FIND OUT.

PRELIM FROM THE AUTOPSY CONFIRMS
THAT JESSICA GOODALL

WAS NOT
SEXUALLY ASSAULTED.

WELL, THAT'S BECAUSE THE COPS
KNOCKED ON THE DOOR.

THE BASTARD
DIDN'T HAVE THE TIME.

ALSO, UH, DR. MORALES --
HE CUT HER NAILS,

PUT THEM UNDER THE SCOPE,
DIDN'T FIND ANY SKIN FRAGMENTS,

SO SHE DIDN'T SCRATCH
THE GUY.

WHAT ABOUT PRINTS?

UH, THEY LIFTED 37
FROM INSIDE THE LOCATION.

THEY'RE TRYING TO EXCLUDE
JESSICA'S NOW.

WE SHOULD KNOW MORE
BY THE END OF THE DAY.

ALSO, I SPOKE TO
THE CORONER'S ASSISTANT.

SWEARS HE NEVER USED
THE FRONT DOOR,

THAT HE CAME AROUND BACK
LIKE EVERYONE ELSE.

I'M STILL TRACKING DOWN
THE PARAMEDICS.

EXCUSE ME.

MR. STROH,
WHAT ARE YOU DOING IN HERE?!

SORRY. LOOKING FOR
THE VENDING MACHINES.

IF YOU'RE HUNGRY, SIR,

YOU CAN TAKE THE ELEVATOR
TO THE FIRST FLOOR.

PUBLIC VENDING MACHINES ARE THE
SAME PLACE THEY'VE ALWAYS BEEN.

YEAH, AND YOU CAN'T JUST GO
WANDERING AROUND THESE HALLS.

MY MISTAKE.

YOU KNOW,
THAT'S THE SAME LAWYER

THAT GOT CHRIS'
OTHER CHARGES DROPPED.

MORNING, CHIEF.

I'VE BEEN COMBING
THROUGH THE FILES

OF THE SIX PREVIOUS RAPES,
LIKE YOU ASKED.

UM, THEY'RE GETTING MORE VIOLENT
AND MORE FREQUENT.

THE GIRL
HE RAPED BEFORE THIS,

HE TIED TO A BEDPOST,
THEN HE KNOCKED HER AROUND.

WHAT ABOUT
PHYSICAL EVIDENCE?

NO PRINTS,
NO DNA ANYWHERE.

HOW DID HE MANAGE THAT,
I WONDER?

H-HE MUST HAVE WORN
A RAINCOAT.

Flynn:
HEY, CHIEF, GET THIS.

YOU KNOW THE COMPANY
THAT CHRIS WAS CALLING?

HE WASN'T EXPECTING
ANY DELIVERIES.

HE WORKS THERE.
HE'S A DELIVERYMAN.

EXCUSE ME, CHIEF.

UH, MR. AND MRS. EVANS
ARE HERE.

I SET THEM UP
IN THE ELECTRONICS ROOM.

THANK YOU, BUZZ.
WE'LL BE RIGHT THERE.

LIEUTENANT,
WOULD YOU PLEASE GET

THE DELIVERY LOGS
FOR THESE COMPANIES?

IF CHRIS DUNLAP
WAS ANYWHERE IN THE VICINITY

OF ANY OF THESE WOMEN,
I WANT TO KNOW ABOUT IT.

SERGEANT.

CHRIS,
READY FOR THE LINEUP?

JUST STEP DOWN THE HALL.

THANKS.

MR. STROH, I'M SURE YOU KNOW
HOW THESE THINGS GO.

I'M GONNA INTRODUCE YOU
TO THE WITNESS,

BUT YOU'RE NOT TO ASK HER
ANY QUESTIONS.

IS THAT CLEAR?
I KNOW THE PROCESS,
CHIEF.

HEY, MR. STROH --
PHIL -- I'M JUST CURIOUS.

YOU DEFENDED CHRIS FOR MOLESTING
A 13-YEAR-OLD FAMILY MEMBER,

AND YOU GOT
THE CHARGES DISMISSED.

AND NOW LOOKS LIKE THE SAME GUY
HAS MURDERED SOMEONE.

HOW DO YOU FEEL
ABOUT THAT?

WELL, FIRST OF ALL,
IT DOESN'T LOOK LIKE

CHRIS MURDERED
THIS YOUNG LADY TO ME.

AND IF YOU'RE ASKING
ABOUT HIS PREVIOUS CASE,

OBVIOUSLY, THE STATE COULDN'T
PROVE THEIR ALLEGATIONS.

SO IF YOU HAVE A PROBLEM
WITH THE LEGAL SYSTEM --

NO, I-I DON'T THINK THE SERGEANT
WAS TALKING ABOUT SPECIFICS,

JUST ABOUT
HOW YOU AS A...

HUMAN BEING JUSTIFY
DEFENDING CHILD MOLESTERS.

ALL RIGHT.

MOST CRIMINALS --
THEY DO THEIR TIME,

AND WHEN
THEY GET OUT OF PRISON,

THEY GO ON ABOUT THEIR LIVES
ANONYMOUSLY.

SEX OFFENDERS ARE REGISTERED
UNTIL THE DAY THEY DIE.

THEY'RE BRANDED...
LIKE ANIMALS.

NOW, IF THE STATE
IS GOING TO PUNISH THEM

MORE HARSHLY
THAN OTHER CRIMINALS,

IT ALSO ASSUMES
A SPECIAL BURDEN

TO PROVE THEIR CONTINUING THREAT
TO SOCIETY.

IT'S MY JOB TO MAKE SURE

THE STATE DEMONSTRATES
THAT THREAT.

SO, SERGEANT...

IF YOUR CHARMINGLY PHRASED
ACCUSATION

REALLY DOES HAVE
SOMETHING TO DO WITH

HOW DEFENDING
SUSPECTED SEX OFFENDERS

MAKES ME FEEL,
THE ANSWER IS...

IT GIVES PURPOSE
TO MY LIFE.

NOW, I'D LIKE TO HEAR
WHAT YOUR EYEWITNESS HAS TO SAY.

WOULDN'T YOU?

ABSOLUTELY.

LIEUTENANT PROVENZA,

WOULD YOU PLEASE
ESCORT MR. EVANS OUT?

THANK YOU.

HELLO, MRS. EVANS.

I'M DEPUTY CHIEF
BRENDA LEIGH JOHNSON.

THANK YOU SO MUCH
FOR COMING IN.

UH, THIS IS MR. STROH.
HE'S AN ATTORNEY.

YES. HOW DO YOU DO?
MRS. EVANS.

ANY PROBLEM
WITH THE SELECTION, MR. STROH?

NO,
LOOKS FINE TO ME.

ALL RIGHT, THEN, MRS. EVANS,
YOU TAKE YOUR TIME.

LET US KNOW
IF THERE'S ANYONE HERE

THAT YOU RECOGNIZE
FROM LAST NIGHT.

Tao:
NUMBER 1, STEP FORWARD.

TURN TO THE RIGHT.
AGAIN.

AGAIN.
STEP BACK TO THE WALL.

NUMBER 2,
STEP FORWARD.

NO.

TURN TO THE RIGHT.

AGAIN.

I REMEMBER HE WAS SLIM
AND HE HAD DARK CLOTHES.

STEP BACK TO THE WALL.

BUT HE HAD --
HAD A T-SHIRT UNDERNEATH.

I REMEMBER
THE WHITE AT HIS NECK.

NUMBER 3...

NO. NO,
HE WASN'T HISPANIC.

TURN TO THE RIGHT.

[ CELLPHONE RINGS ]

IF YOU HAVE A PHONE,
TAKE IT OUT.

TURN IT OFF.

PUT IT BACK.

NUMBER 4, STEP FORWARD.

TURN TO YOUR RIGHT.

AGAIN.

AGAIN.

BACK TO THE WALL.

I DON'T KNOW.

HE WAS TALL LIKE NUMBER 5
BUT NOT AS LARGE.

I'M 6'2". WAS HE CLOSER
TO MY HEIGHT?

HEY. QUIET.

[ DOOR OPENS ]

CHIEF,
CAN I TALK TO YOU?

YES.

UH, SERGEANT GABRIEL,
WOULD YOU PLEASE TAKE

MR. STROH TO INTERVIEW 1
WHEN WE'RE THROUGH HERE?

MRS. EVANS,
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR HELP.

OKAY,
CHRIS MADE DELIVERIES

TO EVERY SINGLE ONE
OF THESE VICTIMS

DAYS BEFORE
THEY WERE ATTACKED.

THAT'S HOW COME HE KNEW THEIR
BATHROOM WINDOWS WERE UNLOCKED.

HE UNLOCKED THEM HIMSELF.

FOUR.

SIX.

SERGEANT GABRIEL,
WOULD YOU PLEASE KEEP

MR. DUNLAP COMPANY
FOR A MOMENT?

MR. STROH,
I NEED TO TALK TO YOU.

I'M ARRESTING
YOUR CLIENT.

FOR WHAT -- TRESPASSING?

CHRIS DUNLAP WORKS
AS A DELIVERYMAN, MR. STROH.

ARE YOU AWARE OF THAT?

YOU SAID THAT THE STATE
HAS A SPECIAL BURDEN OF PROOF

WHEN IT COMES
TO SEX-CRIME CASES.

WELL, HERE IT IS -- YOUR CLIENT
WAS IN JESSICA GOODALL'S HOUSE

DELIVERING A DISHWASHER FOUR
DAYS BEFORE SHE WAS MURDERED.

HE DELIVERED A MATTRESS
TO LAUREN CLARK

THREE DAYS BEFORE SHE WAS TIED
TO HER BED AND BRUTALLY RAPED.

HE DELIVERED A REFRIGERATOR
TO REBECCA HOWL FIVE DAYS --

CIRCUMSTANTIAL.

SIX RAPES AND ONE MURDER, ALL
AT THE SAME POINT OF ENTRY --

A BATHROOM WINDOW
YOUR CLIENT OPENED

WHEN HE MADE
THESE DELIVERIES.

TAKE THIS TO A JURY, AND YOUR
CLIENT FACES THE DEATH PENALTY.

I WANT TO MAKE A DEAL.

YOU WANT TO MAKE A DEAL?

WELL, JUST TO SATISFY
MY CURIOSITY, MR. STROH,

WHAT KIND OF DEAL
WOULD YOU LIKE TO MAKE?

I DON'T KNOW.

YOU GET THE D.A. TO AGREE,
AND CHRIS WILL DO...EIGHT YEARS.

WHAT COULD YOU POSSIBLY GIVE ME
THAT WOULD MERIT

REDUCING YOUR CLIENT'S SENTENCE
TO EIGHT YEARS?

THE NAME
OF THE OTHER GUY.

IT WAS HIS PARTNER
WHO RAPED THOSE WOMEN

AND MURDERED
JESSICA GOODALL.

AND FOR EIGHT YEARS,
CHRIS WILL GIVE YOU HIS NAME.

THIS MAY SURPRISE YOU,
MR. STROH,

BUT WE'RE VERY CLOSE TO FINDING
CHRIS' PARTNER ON OUR OWN.

REALLY?

SO, IF YOU'D LIKE ME
TO TALK TO THE D.A.

ABOUT GIVING YOU
ANY KIND OF A DEAL,

I SUGGEST
THAT YOU HAVE CHRIS DUNLAP

TELL ME SOMETHING
I DON'T ALREADY KNOW.

AND IT HAD BETTER
BE GOOD.

CHRIS DUNLAP,
YOU ARE UNDER ARREST

FOR MURDER
AND SIX COUNTS OF RAPE.

SERGEANT GABRIEL, WOULD
YOU PLEASE TAKE HIM
DOWNSTAIRS TO BOOKING?

THANK YOU.

HAVE A NICE DAY,
MR. STROH.

NOW HIS LAWYER SAYS
THERE'S ANOTHER GUY.

[ SIGHS ]

I KNOW
YOU DON'T LIKE IT,

BUT I THINK YOU'VE
GOT TO CONSIDER THE DEAL.
[ SCOFFS ]

IT'S NOT RIGHT
TO LET CHRIS DUNLAP WALK

AFTER ONLY EIGHT YEARS
JUST TO GET THIS OTHER GUY.

WELL,
WHAT DOES POPE SAY?

HE AGREES WITH ME.

REALLY?

HE'S STILL SMARTING
FROM THAT STUPID INQUIRY

AFTER THE MALL SHOOTING.

NO ONE'S LETTING HIM
FORGET IT.

HE MANAGED
TO DELAY EVERYTHING YESTERDAY

WHILE WE HUNTED THROUGH
DUNLAP'S LIFE,

BUT IF WE DON'T FIND
THIS CREEP'S PARTNER --

IF...THIS OTHER PARTNER
EVEN EXISTS.

WELL,
IF HE DOESN'T EXIST,

THEN WHATEVER DEAL
DUNLAP'S LAWYER MAKES GOES AWAY.

AND AT THE VERY LEAST,

YOU PUT YOUR SUSPECT AWAY
FOR LIFE.

OR...
IF THE OTHER GUY'S REAL,

THEN YOU GET HIS NAME
AND TAKE HIM OFF THE STREETS.

CHRIS DUNLAP WALKED
INTO THESE WOMEN'S HOMES.

HE ASSESSED
THEIR VULNERABILITY.

THEY PROBABLY TIPPED HIM
AFTER HE CHOSE THEM AS VICTIMS.

HE'S A MONSTER.

HE DESERVES TO GO AWAY
FOR THE REST OF HIS LIFE.

[ CUP SLAMS ]

YOU KNOW, IF THIS OTHER GUY
IS REALLY OUT THERE,

THEN HE'S DANGEROUS.

THE LONGER YOU WAIT,

THE MORE LIKELY HE IS
TO DISAPPEAR FOREVER

OR ATTACK AGAIN.

LOOK, IT'S NOT A FAIR DEAL,

AND I KNOW THIS ISN'T
HOW YOU LIKE TO HAND OFF CASES

TO THE D.A.,

BUT, HONEY,
HEY, AT THE END OF THE DAY,

IT MAY BE NECESSARY.

CHIEF,
LIEUTENANT PROVENZA AND TAO

GOT A WARRANT
TO SEARCH DUNLAP'S PLACE

TO SEE IF WE COULD FIND ANYTHING
THAT MIGHT TIP US OFF

TO THIS MYSTERIOUS
SECOND MAN.

AND SANCHEZ IS TALKING TO A KID
WHO DOES DELIVERIES WITH DUNLAP.

HE'S KIND OF A LONG SHOT,

BUT HE DOES HAVE A JUVENILE
CONVICTION FOR BURGLARY,

SO WHO KNOWS?

CHIEF, IF YOU ASK ME,
THEY'RE PLAYING US.

THEY'RE MAKING UP
A SODDI DEFENSE

SO THEY CAN BUY MORE TIME.

MAKING UP A WHAT?
Flynn: SODDI.

"SOME OTHER DUDE DID IT"
DEFENSE.

BUT CONSIDERING OUR WITNESSES
COULDN'T I.D. THE SUSPECT,

WE MAY BE WRONG.
I DON'T KNOW.

CHIEF JOHNSON, ANY LUCK?

WE HAVEN'T FOUND
CHRIS' PARTNER YET,

IF THAT'S
WHAT YOU'RE ASKING.

MAY I SPEAK WITH YOU
FOR A MOMENT?

I TRIED EXPLAINING THINGS
TO THE DEPUTY D.A.,

BUT I CAN'T HOLD HIM OFF.

HE'S, LIKE, HALF A BLOCK AWAY,
AND HE WANTS THE DEAL.

FOR EIGHT YEARS?!

I DON'T LIKE IT, EITHER,
BUT...IT HAS TO BE THIS WAY.

BRING BACK THE SUSPECT.
GET HIS LAWYER.

I'LL BE BACK IN A MINUTE
WITH THE D.D.A.

I'M SORRY.

DETECTIVE SANCHEZ,

ANY CHANCE THE GUY WHO MADE
DELIVERIES WITH CHRIS

MIGHT BE HIS PARTNER?

I'M SORRY, CHIEF.
THE ALIBI'S GOOD.

HE DID SAY THAT CHRIS
ASKED TO USE THE BATHROOM

A LOT DURING DELIVERIES,
WHICH IS AGAINST THE RULES,

AND THAT HE LIKED TO LOOK
AT THE CUSTOMERS' PICTURES,

THE ONES IN THE FRAMES.

CO-WORKER
SAID IT WAS CREEPY.

UH...

COMMANDER, WHERE ARE WE
WITH THE REST OF THE VICTIMS?

WE'VE BEEN GOING THROUGH
THE RAPE FILES.

FIVE OF THE VICTIMS EITHER
CAN'T REMEMBER WHAT HAPPENED

OR NEVER SAW
THE ASSAILANT'S FACE.

APPARENTLY, HE WORE A MASK
OR SOMETHING -- PANTYHOSE.

WHAT ABOUT
THE SIXTH VICTIM?

LAUREN CLARK.
SHE SAW HIM.

NEVER I.D.'d HIM
FROM THE BOOKS.

DUNLAP WASN'T IN THE BOOKS.

YOU WANT ME
TO BRING HER IN?

YES.

BUT WE'RE SUPPOSED TO EVALUATE
HER STATE OF MIND

BEFORE WE PUT HER THROUGH THAT,
SO, NO, NOT YET.

SORRY, CHIEF, BUT THERE'S
NOTHING WHERE CHRIS DUNLAP LIVED

THAT WOULD POINT
TO THE SO-CALLED OTHER PARTNER,

BUT...
HE'S AWFULLY STRANGE.

HE LIVES IN THE ATTIC
AT HIS MOTHER'S HOUSE.

VERY LITTLE FURNITURE,
A MATTRESS ON THE FLOOR.

OH, BOY.
LOTS OF LINGERIE CATALOGS.

AND A BIG WAD OF CASH

STUFFED IN ONE OF HIS SHOES --
CLOSE TO $5,500.

YEAH, NOW, WE ASKED
THE MOM ABOUT IT,

SHE SAID SHE'S HELPING HIM
TO SAVE UP TO FIX HIS FACE.

WHAT?

PLASTIC SURGERY.

YEAH, MOMMY SEEMS TO THINK
THAT HER LITTLE BOY

NEEDS TO BE
BETTER-LOOKING,

OH, AND GOT
ALL THE BROCHURES, TOO --

YOU KNOW,
BOTOX, RHINOPLASTY.

CHIEF. CHIEF, I FINALLY SPOKE
TO THE PARAMEDICS.

THEY SAID
THAT THEY WENT THROUGH

THE BACK DOOR OF JESSICA'S HOUSE
TO GET THE BODY,

THAT THEY NEVER TOUCHED
THE FRONT DOOR.

CHIEF JOHNSON,
YOU REMEMBER D.D.A. GARNETT.

UH, YES.
JUST ONE SECOND, PLEASE.

SERGEANT, WHAT DO YOU THINK THIS
IS ON JESSICA'S FRONT PORCH?

LOOKS LIKE...POPCORN.

BUT NONE OF OUR GUYS
WENT OUT THIS WAY,

SO WHO TRACKED IT
OUTSIDE?

OUR OFFICER CHASED CHRIS
OUT THE BACK DOOR

WHILE THE MURDERER
WALKED RIGHT OUT THE FRONT!

CHIEF JOHNSON.
YES?

UH, YOUR OFFICE,
PLEASE.

NOW THAT YOU HAVE CONFIRMED
THE EXISTENCE

OF MR. DUNLAP'S PARTNER,
I DON'T HAVE TO TELL YOU,

IN THE INTEREST OF PUBLIC
SAFETY, WE ARE COMPELLED TO ACT.

I DON'T AGREE
TO THE EIGHT YEARS.
IT'S NOT UP TO YOU.

LET'S BE CLEAR HERE, GARNETT,
FOR THE RECORD.

YOU ARE INSISTING ON MAKING
THIS DEAL DESPITE THE FACT

THAT THE L.A.P.D.
NEEDS MORE TIME TO INVESTIGATE.

GOOD. YOU UNDERSTAND,

SO I SHOULDN'T
HAVE TO EXPLAIN IT AGAIN.

CAN WE GET ON WITH IT,
PLEASE?

THE D.A.'s OFFICE IS WILLING
TO CONSIDER THE EIGHT YEARS

IF YOUR CLIENT WILL TELL US
WHO HIS ACCOMPLICE IS,

ASSUMING SAID ACCOMPLICE
ACTUALLY COMMITTED THE MURDER

AND THE SEXUAL ASSAULTS.

AND HERE I THOUGHT
YOU WERE CLOSE TO FINDING

SAID ACCOMPLICE
ON YOUR OWN.

I DON'T LIKE BEING MANIPULATED,
CHIEF JOHNSON.

MR. GARNETT,
YOU CAN HAVE THE NAME.

BUT NOW MY CLIENT
WANTS PROBATION.
WHAT?

SIR,
THERE'S A MURDERER AT LARGE.

THEN YOU'D BETTER HURRY.

YOU ARE AN OFFICER
OF THE COURT

AND THEREFORE OBLIGATED
TO AID --

I AM WELL AWARE OF
MY OBLIGATIONS, CHIEF JOHNSON,

IN PARTICULAR,
AS THEY RELATE TO MY CLIENT.

NOW, HE HAS SOME
VERY IMPORTANT INFORMATION

THAT SHOULD BE PASSED ON
TO YOU,

BUT I NEED TO KNOW HE'S GETTING
THE BEST DEAL POSSIBLE.

AND HOW DO WE CONVINCE YOU
THAT EIGHT YEARS IS REASONABLE?

SHOW ME YOUR EVIDENCE.

WE ARE NOT DOING THAT.

CONVINCE ME YOU HAVE SOMETHING
SUBSTANTIAL AGAINST HIM.

I AM NOT OPENING UP
MY CASE.

HE'S GOT NO INCENTIVE
TO GIVE UP INFORMATION.
THERE IS NO WAY!

IF YOU DO, I'LL TALK TO HIM.
MAYBE WE CAN REACH A COMPROMISE.
COMPROMISE?!

SOMEPLACE IN THE MIDDLE.
IT IS EIGHT YEARS,
OR THERE'S NO DEAL!

HOLD ON ONE SECOND.

MR. STROH, COULD YOU EXCUSE US
FOR JUST ONE MOMENT, PLEASE?

THANK YOU.

I REFUSE TO PUT MY EVIDENCE
ON DISPLAY HERE.

EXCUSE ME?
WHAT EVIDENCE?

AS FAR AS I CAN TELL,
YOU DON'T HAVE ANY.

THE INVESTIGATION
IS BARELY 24 HOURS OLD.

TO BE MANIPULATED
INTO A PLEA AGREEMENT

FOR PROBATION
AT THIS POINT IS RIDICULOUS!

YOU WANT TO KNOW WHY
I'M REDUCED TO THIS POSSIBILITY?

BECAUSE YOU HAVEN'T FOUND ME
A KILLER.

WE NEED SOME TIME TO GO THROUGH
THE OLD CASES -- A FEW DAYS!

WITH AN ACTIVE RAPIST
ON THE LOOSE,

A GUY WHO JUST
MURDERED SOMEONE?

NO WAY.

[ SIGHS ]

I-I THINK
THIS IS A MISTAKE.

AND YOU ARE THE REIGNING EXPERT
ON MISTAKES, CHIEF POPE,

BUT THIS
CAN'T BE ONE OF THEM.

NOW, DO I DO THIS
WITH HER OR WITHOUT?

VICTIM 4 -- KIM STANSBURY,
RAPED JANUARY 12.

DO YOU HAVE
ANY PHYSICAL EVIDENCE

LINKING MY CLIENT
TO THE SCENE?

NO.

NO BLOOD,
NO SEMEN, NO HAIR?

NO. NO. NO.
SAME AS ALL THE REST.

ANY FINGERPRINTS I.D.'d
TO MY CLIENT?

NOT YET.

ANY VICTIM I.D.s
OR INDEPENDENT WITNESSES

THAT CAN PLACE HIM
AT THE SCENE?

NO, BUT WE DO HAVE HIM
DELIVERING A REFRIGERATOR TO HER

SIX DAYS
BEFORE THE INCIDENT.

VICTIM 5 -- REBECCA HOWL,
RAPED JANUARY 20.

ANY PHYSICAL EVIDENCE?

WE HAVE HIM DELIVERING
A REFRIGERATOR TO HER

FIVE DAYS BEFORE.

VICTIM 6 -- LAUREN CLARK.

SHOULD I ASSUME THE SAME
AS THE PRECEDING FIVE?

ACTUALLY, SHE SAYS SHE CAN
IDENTIFY THE ASSAILANT.

INTERESTING.

BUT DO YOU HAVE ANY BLOOD,
SEMEN, HAIR,

OR ANY OTHER
PHYSICAL EVIDENCE?

NO.

[ PEN SCRATCHES ]

ALL RIGHT, LASTLY,
JESSICA GOODALL.

ANYTHING?

OTHER THAN THE FACT THAT
YOUR CLIENT WAS SEEN RUNNING

FROM THE BACK
OF THE VICTIM'S HOUSE

BY A LOS ANGELES
POLICE OFFICER

AND FOUND HIDING IN A TREE
30 MINUTES LATER, NO.

OKAY. THANK YOU.

I WILL DISCUSS THIS WITH CHRIS,
AND, IF HE'S IN AGREEMENT,

I'LL WRITE UP THE PROFFER
TO STATE THAT,

IN ADDITION TO THE DETAILS
OF THE CRIMES,

HE WILL REVEAL
THE NAME OF HIS PARTNER.

WE CAN MEET IN THE MORNING,
AND ASSUMING --

NO.
WE'RE DOING THIS TONIGHT.

YOU'VE GOT FIVE HOURS,
SIR.

FINE.

MR. GARNETT.
CHIEF JOHNSON.

THIS IS
THE RIGHT THING TO DO.

NOT FOR JESSICA GOODALL.

EXCUSE ME.

CHIEF JOHNSON.

STROH IS HERE.

YOU READY?

AS I'LL EVER BE.
WHAT'S THE OFFER?

HIS CLIENT
GIVES UP THE NAME.

WE SPLIT THE DIFFERENCE --
FOUR YEARS.

[ GROANS ]

THIS ACCOMPLICE
HAS A METHODOLOGY.

HE'S NOT
GONNA STRIKE AGAIN

WHILE WE HAVE CHRIS DUNLAP
IN CUSTODY.

WE HAVE TIME
TO LOOK FOR HIM.

WE'RE GONNA FIND THE GUY A LOT
FASTER ONCE WE KNOW HIS NAME.

CAN WE JUST EXECUTE
THE DEAL? PLEASE?

Brenda: ALL RIGHT.

MR. STROH. CHRIS.

YOU'VE READ
THE STATEMENT

AND AGREE
TO PROVIDE TESTIMONY

AS TO THE TRUTHFULNESS OF
THE FACTS WITHIN THIS DOCUMENT?

FOUR YEARS
FOR THE NAME,

PROVIDED WE CAN VERIFY
ITS VALIDITY.

MR. STROH, MAYBE IT'S MY EARS,
BUT FOR THE LIFE OF ME,

I CAN'T HEAR
WHAT YOUR CLIENT IS SAYING.

CHRIS.

YES, I'LL TESTIFY.

GOOD.

WOULD YOU SIGN THIS,
PLEASE?

THANK YOU.

OKAY, YOU STATE HERE
THAT YOU WERE CHARGED

WITH FINDING WOMEN
ON YOUR DELIVERY

THAT WOULD BEST FIT
YOUR PARTNER'S TYPE.

IS THAT CORRECT?

YES.

HE, UH...
HE LIKES BLOND HAIR.

SO YOU WOULD UNLOCK THE WINDOWS
AND WATCH THEM FOR A FEW DAYS?

TO MAKE SURE THERE WERE NO
ROOMMATES OR BOYFRIENDS, RIGHT.

AND ONCE YOU WERE SURE?

UH, HE'D PICK A NIGHT.
WE'D GO IN TOGETHER.

I'D WATCH THE STREET,
AND HE'D, UH...

HE'D BE WITH THEM.

YOU STATE THAT YOU NEVER
ACTUALLY PARTICIPATED

IN ANY OF THE SEXUAL ASSAULTS
YOURSELF...

NO. NO.

...THAT YOU ACTED ONLY
AS LOOKOUT FOR YOUR PARTNER.

AND IN RETURN,
HE COMPENSATED YOU MONETARILY.

YES.

HOW MUCH?

$1,500 APIECE.

WOW, THAT'S A LOT.

I'M SURE YOU MUST HAVE BEEN
WORTH IT, THOUGH.

IN FACT, IF WE WEREN'T TALKING
ABOUT RAPE AND MURDER,

SOUNDS LIKE YOU'D MAKE
AN IDEAL EMPLOYEE.

NOW COMES THE HARD PART,

AND YOU HAD BETTER TELL THE
WHOLE TRUTH AND NOTHING BUT,

SO HELP YOU GOD, OR THIS DEAL
FOR FOUR YEARS GOES AWAY.

WHAT'S THE NAME
OF YOUR PARTNER?

IT'S OKAY, CHRIS.
GO AHEAD.

IT'S HIM.

EXCUSE ME?!

WHAT THE HELL?

IT'S MR. STROH.

CHRIS.
CHRIS, THIS IS NOT FUNNY.

WHAT?
D-DID SOMETHING CHANGE?

ENOUGH! THAT'S IT!
YOU, OUTSIDE NOW!

[ EXHALES SHARPLY ]

JUST WHEN YOU THOUGHT
YOU HEARD IT ALL.

WOULD YOU MIND TELLING ME WHAT
THE HELL'S GOING ON IN HERE?!

CHIEF JOHNSON, I AM AS SHOCKED
AS YOU ARE. BELIEVE ME.

I EXPLAINED TO HIM

VERY SPECIFICALLY
WHAT HE NEEDED TO DO.

IF YOU'RE PULLING SOME KIND
OF A STUNT, SO HELP ME.

I WAS...THRILLED
WITH FOUR YEARS.

IN FACT, I THINK IT'S WHAT
HE DESERVES. I TOLD HIM SO.

I CAN PROMISE YOU
IT'S NOT GONNA GET ANY BETTER.

I DON'T KNOW
WHAT TO TELL YOU,

EXCEPT THAT I CAN'T REPRESENT
HIM IF HE'S ACCUSING ME OF THIS.

NO. NO. YOU WROTE UP
THIS PROFFER, SIR.

WE ARE NOT GOING ANYWHERE
UNTIL WE GET A NAME.

ALL RIGHT.
HOLD ON. HOLD ON.

Brenda: Now, Chris, just so
we are perfectly clear,

this deal
that you just signed --
Where's Mr. Stroh?

WHAT --
WHAT DID HE SAY TO YOU?

WELL, HE SAID
YOU SHOULD GET YOURSELF

a new lawyer,
for starters.

What?
I don't understand.
Frankly,
I don't blame him.

'CAUSE THIS GAME
YOU'RE PLAYING

IS A WASTE
OF EVERYONE'S TIME.

BUT HE PROMISED ME THAT
IF I KEPT MY MOUTH SHUT --

ALL HIS HARD WORK --
YOU'RE RUINING IT.

NO, I SWEAR.
I WOULD NEVER --
NOW, CHRIS!

IF THIS IS SOME CRAZY ATTEMPT
TO GET A BETTER DEAL,

YOU ARE CLIMBING UP
THE WRONG TREE...AGAIN!

AND IF YOU DON'T STRAIGHTEN UP,
AND RIGHT THIS SECOND,

INSTEAD OF FOUR YEARS, YOU'RE
LOOKING AT THE DEATH PENALTY!

DO YOU UNDERSTAND ME?!

I'LL ASK YOU
ONE MORE TIME.

WHAT IS THE NAME
OF YOUR PARTNER?

[ Voice breaking ]
IT'S -- IT'S MR. STROH.

THAT'S IT.
WE'RE THROUGH HERE.

NO, WAIT! WAIT!
I'M TELLING YOU THE TRUTH!

HE -- HE JUST WANTED TO SEE
WHAT YOU HAD ON US

BEFORE I TALKED TO YOU.

WHY WOULD
HE NEED TO DO THAT?

H-HE WANTED TO MAKE SURE

YOU DIDN'T HAVE
ANY EVIDENCE ON HIM.

GOOD GOD.
I SWEAR. I SWEAR.

I SWEAR, I WANTED TO
TELL YOU EVERYTHING

FROM THE VERY BEGINNING.

BUT MR. STROH -- HE SAID
THAT IF I EVER WAS CAUGHT,

I WAS SUPPOSED TO CALL HIM
RIGHT AWAY.

AND WHEN THAT GIRL GOT HURT
AND WHEN THE POLICE CAME,

HE TOLD ME -- HE TOLD ME
TO RUN OUT THE BACK DOOR,

AND WHEN
I COULDN'T GET AWAY,

I did
what he told me to do.

'Cause Mr. Stroh --
He told me --

He said that even though

I hadn't done anything
as bad as him

that I would go to jail
for as long as he did

if I admitted anything
before I got a deal.

WHY DID YOU DO THOSE THINGS
FOR HIM?

He saved me from jail.

AND HE WANTED TO HELP ME
WITH MY FACE.

SO WHEN HE ASKED ME

TO USE MY JOB
TO HELP HIM FIND THESE...

[ Crying ]
I DIDN'T WANT TO LET HIM DOWN.

SO I FOUND A GIRL.

I FOUND
A REALLY PRETTY GIRL

that I knew he'd like,

and I unlocked the window,
and we went in.

[ SNIFFLES ]

I HID THE MONEY.

UH, Y-YOU CAN FIND IT
IN MY ROOM.

I'M SAVING IT UP

'CAUSE MY MOM SAYS
SHE CAN MAKE ME HANDSOME.

[ SNIFFLES ]

HEY.

SO, WAIT, UH,
IS -- IS THAT IT?

DO I -- DO I --
DO I GET MY DEAL?

[ BREATHING HEAVILY ]

YOU HAVE ANYTHING TO SAY,
MR. STROH?

I GUESS I'D HAVE TO SAY
HE'S CRAZY.

I MEAN, HE SOUNDED
SO CONVINCING.

HE ALMOST HAD ME
BELIEVING HIM, BUT...

COME ON, LET'S BE HONEST.
THAT STORY IS ABSURD.

YES, IT IS.

MR. GARNETT, IT SEEMS TO ME
THAT YOUR PRESENCE HERE

COULD BE
A CONFLICT OF INTEREST.

IF YOU STAY, YOU RISK
BEING CALLED AS A WITNESS.

SEEMS STRANGELY
SELF-DESTRUCTIVE OF CHRIS,

DON'T YOU THINK --

KNOWING THAT A LIE

WOULD RUIN HIS CHANCES
TO WALK IN FOUR YEARS?

TRUE.
HE BLOWS HIS DEAL.

BUT YOU CAN'T USE ANYTHING
HE SAID AGAINST HIM.

OR AGAINST ME,
FOR THAT MATTER.

BECAUSE,
UNFORTUNATELY FOR CHRIS,

EVEN IF HE WAS TELLING
THE TRUTH,

EVEN IF I WAS
AN ACCOMPLICE,

IN ORDER TO HAVE HIS STATEMENT
ADMITTED IN COURT,

YOU'D NEED SOME SORT
OF CORROBORATING EVIDENCE

LINKING ME TO AT LEAST ONE
OF THESE CRIMES.

AND,
AS YOU AND MR. GARNETT

MADE ABUNDANTLY CLEAR
EARLIER TODAY,

YOU HAVE
NO SUCH EVIDENCE.

SO...
IF I'M NOT MISTAKEN,

WE'RE THROUGH HERE.

WE HAVE A WITNESS, MR. STROH --
YOUR SIXTH VICTIM.

LAUREN CLARK --
SHE SAYS SHE CAN MAKE AN I.D.

RIGHT.

I FORGOT ABOUT HER.
YOU BRINGING HER IN?

YES, WE ARE.

SO IS THERE ANYONE
YOU'D LIKE TO CALL?

YOUR LAWYER, PERHAPS?

NO. THAT'S VERY CONSIDERATE
OF YOU. THANK YOU.

BUT...
SINCE I AM A LAWYER,

I THINK
I'LL BE JUST FINE.

AND MY ADVICE TO ME
WOULD BE TO...

WAIT.

SO...I'LL WAIT...

RIGHT HERE
IF THAT'S OKAY.

MISS CLARK, I'M DEPUTY CHIEF
BRENDA LEIGH JOHNSON.

THANK YOU SO MUCH
FOR COMING DOWN HERE SO LATE.

NO, THAT'S OKAY.

IT'S JUST SCARY THINKING
THAT I MIGHT SEE HIM AGAIN.

[ Voice breaking ]
MY STOMACH'S IN KNOTS.

I UNDERSTAND.

WHY DON'T YOU HAVE
A SEAT HERE?

NOW, I'M GONNA TELL YOU THAT
NONE OF THESE MEN IN THE LINEUP

CAN SEE OR HEAR YOU,
OKAY?

YOU'RE PERFECTLY SAFE HERE.

YOU JUST TAKE YOUR TIME,
ALL RIGHT?

READY TO GO, CHIEF.

OKAY.

I'M SORRY. WAIT.
WHAT IF I KNOW ONE OF THEM?

WHO?

UM, HIM, NUMBER 2.
I DON'T REMEMBER HIS NAME.

YOU KNOW HIM?

YEAH, HE STOPPED BY MY WORK
A FEW HOURS AGO.

HE'S A LAWYER --
PHIL, I THINK.

AND HE SAID I'D PROBABLY BE
COMING DOWN HERE TONIGHT.

IS THAT BAD?

[ BREATHING HEAVILY ]

HE CAN'T TAMPER WITH A WITNESS
IN HIS OWN CASE.

SIX HOURS AGO,
IT WAS HIS CLIENT'S CASE.

HE'LL SAY
HE WAS QUESTIONING HER,

WHICH, AT THE TIME,
HE HAD EVERY RIGHT TO DO.

HE KNEW
WHERE SHE WORKED.

HE COULDN'T HAVE KNOWN THAT
WITHOUT --

WITHOUT LOOKING AT
OUR FILES.

REMEMBER THE PART
WHERE YOU INSISTED

THAT WE SHOW HIM
EVERYTHING?

YOU EVER MAKE A DEAL
WITH THE DEVIL, MR. GARNETT?

THIS IS PROBABLY
WHAT IT'S LIKE.

THANK YOU, SERGEANT.

CHIEF JOHNSON.

DID THE SEARCH WARRANTS SERVED
AT MY HOME AND OFFICE

GET YOU ANYWHERE?

NO,
BUT YOU HAD PLENTY OF TIME

TO DISPOSE OF
ANYTHING INCRIMINATING

WHILE OUR INVESTIGATION
WAS FOCUSED ON YOUR CLIENT.

I'LL ADMIT TO BEING
MILDLY INTERESTED

IN HOW YOU MANAGED
TO RAPE SEVEN WOMEN

WITHOUT GETTING
A MARK ON YOU.

HOW ABOUT...
I DIDN'T RAPE SEVEN WOMEN?

OH, I'M SORRY. SIX.
ONE YOU JUST MURDERED.

FOR WHICH YOUR FORMER CLIENT MAY
NOW BE FACING LIFE IN PRISON.

WELL, HE'S OBVIOUSLY
A DANGEROUS GUY...

CRIMINALLY IMMATURE.

BUT HIS NEXT ATTORNEY
WILL PROBABLY THROW OUT

MOST OF WHAT
YOU'VE DONE HERE.

I'M SORRY FOR WASTING
SO MUCH OF YOUR TIME.

I REALLY SHOULD HAVE MENTIONED
MEETING MISS CLARK

WHEN I LEFT THIS AFTERNOON,
BUT IT, UH...

TOTALLY SLIPPED MY MIND.

SHE DIDN'T SEEM
TERRIBLY BRIGHT, DID SHE?

PRETTY, THOUGH.

MR. STROH...

YOU MAY THINK YOU'RE WALKING
AWAY FROM THIS A FREE MAN,

BUT I ASSURE YOU,
YOU ARE IN MORE TROUBLE

THAN YOU COULD
POSSIBLY IMAGINE!

I HOPE
THAT'S NOT A THREAT.

I WOULD HATE TO HAVE TO BRING
A LAWSUIT AGAINST THE CITY

FOR VIOLATING
MY CIVIL RIGHTS.

I KNOW YOUR ACCOMPLICE.

I KNOW THE WOMEN YOU RAPED
AND THE WOMAN YOU MURDERED.
I DON'T KNOW
WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT.

AND WITH THE HELP OF EVERY
LAW-ENFORCEMENT AGENCY

IN THE COUNTY
OF LOS ANGELES,

WHICH, AS OF TODAY,

WILL BECOME A PERMANENT FIXTURE
IN YOUR LIFE,

I WILL HUNT RELENTLESSLY

TO TIE YOU TO THESE CRIMES
UNTIL THE DAY YOU DIE.

REALLY? WHAT IS IT
YOU HOPE TO ACCOMPLISH?

TO SEE YOU ON TRIAL
FOR MURDER, MR. STROH.

WELL, THEN...YOU MUST FEEL
TERRIBLY DISAPPOINTED

IN THE WAY THINGS
HAVE TURNED OUT HERE.

[ SIGHS ]
LOOK ON THE BRIGHT SIDE, CHIEF.

AT LEAST IT'S OVER.

IT'S NOT OVER.

IT IS.
