Welcome back to the voice
of Las Vegas, KWMS Radio.

The city remains in mourning today,

as we try to make sense of the
murder of Assemblyman Danilo Zamesca.

After his only son was
gunned down by a drug dealer,

Zamesca dedicated his
life to public service.

He set his sights on the drug
traffickers and suppliers.

He believed you get drugs off the streets
by putting the suppliers out of business.

That was his mission.

His murder's rocked headlines,

uniting Democrats and Republicans alike,

all of us asking the same question:

What happened out there?

Peg from Sunrise Manor, you're on.

Danilo Zamesca spoke truth to
power and got killed for it.

I don't think there's anybody out
there who has the courage to stand up

and take his place.

Roger from MacDonald Ranch.

Yeah, hey, listen. If this guy
was pure as the driven snow,

what's he doing out there in the
middle of nowhere with drugs in his car?

Give me a break.

He was dirty, just
like the rest of them.

Okay, Roger, thank you for calling.

Looks like some sort of foam.

Found it next to the tire impression.

So CSI got a fingerprint off the
drinking straw we found at the scene.

Guys like Thomas Simon
never get their hands dirty.

No. It was a very clean print. And
Ballistics matched some shell casings

that we found at Simon's
McMansion on that raid last year.

- Did you find the gun?
- No.

So Zamesca was trying to put Simon out
of business, and it cost him his life.

Hey.

I have a warrant for
Thomas Simon. Is he here?

He's the owner, man.

But even I haven't seen
him in, like, three weeks.

Sorry.

The biggest drug supplier on the
West Coast kills a public official,

and we can't find him.

I'm just the undersheriff.
I have one job:

make the sheriff look smart.

You're not helping.

We busted our hump
trying to find this guy.

Science can only do so
much with a cold trail.

You ever seen a man's face
change into that kind of a demon?

My eggs are runny.

I couldn't have been more
specific with the waitress.

You gonna eat those?

Oh, you want my pancakes?
Yeah, sure, knock yourself out.

Here.

Thank you.

I don't hear a solution.

We could try something I did in Philly.

It's, um, a little unorthodox.

I only want to know if it works.

Philly, yes.

Baltimore, no.

Is that why you're in Vegas?

Fifty-fifty. I can
live with those odds.

So, are you waiting for a drumroll?

It's called "reverse forensics."

Oh. We fake a crime scene.

Basically.

How do we get around entrapment?

Well, it's not entrapment if you're
not enticing anyone to commit a crime.

The goal is to make Simon
think he's off the hook.

So what's the catch?

Whole thing's a catch.

The hardest part is stopping leaks.

You've got to be willing to
deceive the people you work with.

Assuming they can be
deceived, which they can't.

Not your call.

You know, I can think of nine,

no, ten ways that this could screw up.

- At least.
- So don't screw it up.

The first thing we need is
a victim, somebody we own.

And you need a fall guy to
play the role of "killer,"

somebody who's jake with
having his mug shot everywhere.

In Baltimore, we used a snitch.

So you're going to have to
bring the D.A. into this.

The D.A.?

That bitch won't like it.

Thanks for breakfast.

You ever notice how it's the, uh,
guys with all the money that never pay?

Sure, that's how they
keep all the money.

- Here, let me get it.
- No, I got it.

- New guy.
- Thank you.

You know, Catherine, if we do our
job right and catch the bad guy,

nobody's going to remember the rest.

I'll remember.

- Hey, Mike.
- Hey.

Do you guys, uh, organize
your files by case number?

In a perfect world.

We hired this, uh,
knucklehead named Mahoney.

He had this dyslexic filing system.

So what do you think?

Does the dyslexic atheist
not believe in dog?

What?

Oh... I get it.

Hey. I need you on a 411 tonight.

Stolen motor vehicles?
You got to be kidding me.

P.D. recovered 20 stolen motorcycles.
They're at the Dupont Towing Lot.

- Can't you slide it to Days?
- Hey, guys.

Take Warrick with you. It'll go faster.

Okay.

What'll go faster?

G iddyup.

What's happening, Rat?

Boy, you got to love junkies, huh?

What stamina, what willpower.

I mean, even the rain
doesn't keep them away.

It doesn't keep the cops
away either, I guess, huh?

You nervous, Rat? Relax,
relax, I'm just here to talk.

Listen, you like game shows?

Because I got a deal; listen to this.

First place is a
life-changing experience.

You get a whole new life.

What's second place?

There is no second place, Rat.

Either way, you don't get
to work the alley anymore.

Screw you.

Screw me? No, no.

Screw you. Look, take my deal.

Otherwise, you're in possession
of a controlled substance,

and with your record,
that's a mandatory sentence.

Okay. If you want information,
just ask me. Just that I'm...

All right, let's walk, walk with me.

It's a little complicated.

You own a gun?

That's K-E-P-P-L-E-R,
Michael Keppler.

Yeah, check it out. Okay, I got to go.

What's going on?

Um, nothing I can talk about.

Keep me posted on the 419. Greg's
going to meet you at the scene.

Okay.

Ten to one, it's Internal Affairs.

Got a vibe off Keppler
the minute he blew in.

Always with a suit.

If you got any dirty laundry,
I hope you used bleach.

What?

I'm CSI Stokes, this is Brown.

Where's your paperwork?

We're from the crime lab, dude.

I still need paperwork.

We're here to process those
stolen motorcycles, man.

I need authorization,
fellas, in writing.

Wh-What if, what if I promise to
come back and give it to you later?

Okay, cut us some slack here, man.

You think we really feel
like being down here?

How do you want to handle this?

You want to shoot our way in?

I'd love to bust a cap in his knee.

Sir, don't make us call your
supervisor. Now, come on.

Come on!

We got third instar maggots.

With this smell, she's
been dead at least 48 hours.

Toys are all here.

Needle, syringe, tubing, candle, spoon.

It looks like heroin.

Manager said he found her like
this when he came by for a visit.

Said they were friends, but he
was a little unclear of her name.

Monique something or other.

Maybe she was, uh, working off the rent.

No I.D. on the body.

I'll take a look around for it.

Needle marks are sclerotic.

Chronic user.

Probable O.D.

Scorpio. Ruled by Pluto.

Athough since it's
not a planet anymore...

I'm not sure how that works.

Maybe it's a "dwarf" sign.

Like Pluto is, you know,
a "dwarf" planet now.

Car keys. Cell phone.

No "Mom" or "Dad" listed.

There's a lot of food for a junkie.

Maybe she had a roommate.

Zamesca was shot three
times with a nine millimeter.

We've got two sets of shoe impressions.

Two sets of tire impressions.

A plastic "Jumbo Cola" cup.

Drugs were found in
Zamesca's car, in plain view,

but his tox was negative.

Drugs were planted.

Crime scene was a remote location.

That's in our favor.

Car was a bloody mess.

Our "victim" was kind enough
to donate a pint of his blood.

Did Mr. Holstein also donate his
brain matter and bone fragments?

Brass recruited him from
Narco, undercover cop.

Opted to keep his brains intact.

Well, without actually shooting
the guy, this scene is going to be

slightly less than perfect, but
it's just you and me out there.

No, can't be.

We're going to need a third person
processing the scene to make it look kosher.

Someone who's not in on it.

Well, if we use one of my guys,
they're going to figure it out.

Keep them away from the car.

I'm not used to faking it.

When's the last time you had to?

Registration's expired.

Want to bet she's not insured?

Monique Carter. 155
North Court, Henderson.

Oh, that's a good neighborhood.

Well, this used to be a nice car.

Maybe she traded in her old
lifestyle to ride the "H" train.

Now, the manager wants it out
of here. So, I'll have it towed.

It looks like an impact,
maybe from a weapon.

Very good observation, David.

Shave the area. Call Sara.

We may be looking at a homicide.

- Hey, Henry.
- Hey.

It's heroin mixed with
cocaine and methamphetamine.

Which are the same drug components
you found in Zamesca's car.

Really?

Should I call Sara? It's her case.

Henry, I need you to step
out and get a cup of coffee.

Well, I can't leave my evidence out.

This is not a request.

Firing one.

Is there a problem?

F.Y.I., Bobby Dawson is
a bit of a control freak.

Doesn't like anyone
in here unsupervised.

So he got one accidental
discharge on his record.

I'm sure he doesn't want another one.

Unless... of course, this
is an I.A. investigation,

and, uh, Bobby is his subject.

Interesting that Grissom, champion
of the little guys, is on sabbatical.

Interesting, especially
if he planned it that way.

This is my own blood, right?

'Cause it's starting
to drip in my mouth.

It's all yours.

You can get out now, Detective, and...

I know, don't touch anything.

You got it.

Oh, and there's some fresh
clothes in the back of the vehicle.

Got any brandy?

Sorry, man.

So, Mike, you said reverse
forensics didn't work in Baltimore.

How come?

Smart cops.

You steal cars before you became a CSI?

Stealing cars gets old fast.

I like more of a challenge.

Note to self.

Okay, you can drop that cup now.

Yeah, I'm not done yet.

He said drop it.

About my new identity, um,
I don't want to go to Denver.

I think I'd rather go
someplace where I'd fit in...

like Maui.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

And I want a threesome with
Beyonce and Scarlett Johansson.

Drop the cup and get
your rat ass in the car.

I drop the cup.

Casual.

- Excuse me?
- Simon.

His soda.

He wasn't expecting trouble.

Get out of my car...

walk over to Zamesca.

Didn't come here to kill him...

came to talk.

Hand him the photo.

Then something doesn't go as planned.

I drop the drink...

grab my gun.

Murder was Plan B.

Plan A was the photograph.

Anti-drug crusader doing lines.

Career buster.

Looks like he underestimated Zamesca.

He was a hard man to kill.

Simon panicked.

Which explains why he left
evidence behind this time.

And why he had to disappear.

And why we're doing this.

I'm going to call it in.

911, is this an emergency?

Yes, someone's been shot.

I'm a quarter mile west of
Mountain's Edge and Durango.

There's a man bleeding
from the head in his car.

Looks like a gunshot wound,
but I didn't see a gun.

He's dead for sure.

Sir, may I have your name?

419, possible 420, quarter mile
west of Mountain's Edge and Durango.

Man down, gunshot wound to the head.

2-0cean-2, 2-0cean-34,
please respond.

Show time.

Control, this is 2-Zero-3,
Charlie-Captain-Brass.

I am with Charlie-Zero-4-Willows
and Charlie-Zero-9-Keppler.

We're around the corner.
Our E.T.A. is five minutes.

We'll be responding also.

C.O.D. was blunt force trauma
to the right temporal region.

Wound's inconsistent with a fall.

You fall into something,
say a coffee table,

wound's always deeper on one end.

Depth here is uniform.

Would somone please answer that phone?

Sorry. Tox confirms high level of heroin,
cocaine, methamphetamine in her system.

I opened up her arm
under a fresh needle mark,

drew out one milliliter of dark liquid.

The drugs were puddled.

Means they didn't circulate
in her bloodstream.

Injection was postmortem.

Dead girls don't shoot up.

Sorry. Catherine needs to speak to you.

Says it's urgent.

Right.

I'm in the middle of
an autopsy, Catherine.

Sorry. I'm at a 420.
Similar M.O.to Zamesca.

Press is all over us. I need permission
to get the body out of here ASAP.

That's fine. Just photograph and
diagram it before transporting.

Of course. Now, which
mortuary's on call?

Kentworth. You have that number?

I'll take care of it. Thanks, Doc.

This is so lame.

How much do you want to bet half
the prints come back to the cops

who recovered these bikes.
They never wear gloves.

Brown.

Hey, Cath.

We'll see you there.

Well, in that case...

I'll see you there.

Boy, she has got it in for me today.

Well, giddyup.

CSI coming through.

Thank you.

Where's the body?

Called the morticians to get
it out of here. Gunshot victim.

Got I.D.?

Ezekiel Holstein. Local.

Brass is running him now.

Hey, Cath, didn't you
find Zamesca near here?

Yeah.

Got the "Jumbo" cup.

Shoe and tire impressions.

Shot in his car.

Think Simon's coming out of hiding?

Or it's a copycat.

Want me to take the backseat?

No, um, take the perimeter,
get started on a diagram.

Okay, Sarge.

Not my first barbecue.

Thanks, Warrick.

Undersheriff McKeen, is this
related to the Zamesca murder?

We're in the process of conducting an
investigation, so I don't have all the facts.

But there does appear to be some
similarities to Assemblyman Zamesca's murder.

Uh, I have no further
comments at this time.

Ezekiel Holstein. Date
of birth: 07-14-72.

Do a records check.

Oh, and, uh, contact Narco.

May be drug-related.

I really feel good about this.

Monique's dead body means I
got to get the carpet cleaned.

You said the scene was clear,
I called the cleaning service.

It's a good way to cover your tracks.

Like I said, she'd been
shacked up with some guy.

Can you describe him?

Average-looking, white dude.

I only saw him from a distance.

He was driving her car.

Look, she was a nice, smart lady.

She helped me get out of a
jam with my insurance company.

I know she liked the "candy",

but she did not deserve
to go out that way.

I ran Monique Carter's phone records.

Someone made a dozen calls
from her cell yesterday.

She was dead yesterday.

Yeah, and we recovered her
phone from her apartment,

so someone was yakking while she
was lying dead on the floor dead.

Let's run those numbers.

Hey, how's the King of property crimes?

My socks keep disappearing in the
dryer. You want to tackle that one?

What are you doing with the
cup from my Zamesca scene?

That's not your cup.

It's from Catherine and Warrick's 420.

They found the same kind
of cup at their scene?

Same everything.

Watch the news lately?

Hey, what about my socks?

They're not gonna find themselves.

Uh, excuse me.

Uh, what are you doing?

Hi, Mike Keppler.

Sorry, didn't get a chance to
introduce myself before I, uh,

invaded your lab.

Uh, well, can I help you with something?

Yeah, I'm looking for the
ballistics on Holstein.

Uh, yeah, just about to run them.

Great.

Mind if I sit in?

Bullet that killed Holstein was a
nine-mill, same caliber as Zamesca,

but no match.

Killer could have used a different gun.

Thanks, Bobby.

See you later.

- Hey, Doc.
- Hey, Nick.

Want you to catch me up
with Catherine and Warrick.

I haven't seen them.

Where's the body from their 420?

Uh, it hasn't come in yet.
It was a mortuary pickup.

Who's this?

It's Monique Carter. Heroin
addict, got whacked on the head.

She involved with Catherine's 420?

If she was, nobody told me.

Will you send me a photo of this tattoo?

And when the body comes in at the
mortuary, will you give me a call?

I'll get right on it.

Seat's been pushed all the way back.

Manager said he saw a guy driving.

She was a lawyer.

Suspended for failure to
pay her Bar Association dues.

Lose all that to drugs, you
gotta be in a lot of pain.

Or you think you're too
smart to get addicted.

You guys seen Catherine around?
She's not answering her cell phone.

Anything from your scene
link back to Zamesca?

No. Why?

Because I think your d.b.'s the
unidentified woman in the photo I found.

Really?

And, excuse me,

we found this same type of
material at the Zamesca scene.

If we can match it back to this car...

You could place the car at the scene.

And Simon behind the wheel.

Got a partial print off
the straw from the soda cup.

AFIS hit Edwin Dennison, aka "Rat".

Small-time drug dealer
with a big-time rap sheet.

Well, I'll get Brass
to bring him in, huh?

Nice work.

I just connected Sara's vic to Simon.

Yeah, you might want to hear this.

What's the connection?

Well, I think, that Simon was
driving her BMW to meet Zamesca.

Nick, we got a print
from the Holstein case.

Street dealer.

We're bringing him in now.

And he looks dirty for Zamesca, too.

I grew up in this town. I
know about playing the odds.

You are gambling with my team.

We talked about the risk going
in. It's not like we can quit now.

I'm not quitting. But I don't like it.

And I hate lying to my guys.

Mr. Dennison, could we have a comment?

Good afternoon.

The Las Vegas Police Department has
successfully apprehended a suspect,

one Edwin Dennison, who's
confessed of multiple homicides,

including that of
Assemblyman Danilo Zamesca.

Mr. Dennison admitted to luring
Mr. Zamesca to a remote location,

while seeking his help
to escape the drug trade.

When Mr. Zamesca encouraged him to
surrender to police, Mr. Dennison shot him.

He later shot Mr. Holstein
during a dispute over a drug deal.

I'd like to say how very proud I
am of the swift and efficient work

that my department has
done in tracking down

and apprehending this
dangerous criminal...

You know that Dawson guy gets kind of
uptight when people touch his stuff.

Well, the Holstein scene bullet

was fired from the same gun
that you found in Rat's car.

Done deal.

I'm not so sure.

If this bullet went through
the window and a guy's head...

it would have pieces of
glass and bits of bone in it.

This hollow point's clean.
There's no sand-blasted effect.

The DNA sample yet, might
have been cleaned already.

There's still blood on it.

I see your point.

Maybe autopsy will show something.

Hey, Nick.

I can't find the evidence
in the Holstein case.

What do you want it for?

Because that guy who confessed
to killing Zamesca didn't do it.

Sheriff's jumping the gun.

We have evidence and a confession.

You can't just come in
here and take over my case.

Is there a reason you don't want
me to see that file, Catherine?

Nick, as your supervisor,
I'm ordering you to back off.

Uh, it's freezing.

Why are we having a meeting outside?

'Cause Catherine and
Keppler are in there.

What, have you guys
been listening to Hodges?

No, and this isn't about
Keppler being I.A. anyway.

This is about Catherine having a
false confession and standing by it.

You'd better be able to
back that one up, man.

Zamesca knew Sara and Greg's
vic. He's dead, she's dead,

same drugs are found at
both scenes, and then...

those same drugs showed
up at your crime scene?

Could have come from the same supplier.

We see that all the time.

I don't think it's a coincidence.

You know, Catherine...

Catherine ordered Henry
to step out of his lab

without putting drug evidence away.

Why would she do that?

I did see Keppler checking
out Zamesca's file yesterday.

I didn't think anything
strange about it then,

but now...

Okay, so...

maybe there is an I.A. investigation.

I can't find the Holstein evidence.

What?

Catherine put it in a temporary locker.

Why didn't she put it where it belongs?

The Holstein bullet was
a little bit too clean,

and Keppler didn't seem
at all concerned about it.

He said that we would see at autopsy.

Well, it's kind of hard to have an
autopsy when you don't have a body, man.

I talked to Doc Robbins, he's
still trying to track it down.

And the mortuary has no record of
Catherine's phone call whatsoever.

Do we have access to any
of the Holstein evidence?

We got the car.

Catherine sent it to the impound.

Well, at least we know where it is.

All right, that's it, we're
a team now, the four of us.

We can't trust Catherine
and we can't trust Keppler.

I'm serious.

I'm gonna run with this one.

I'll run with you.

You?

I'm in.

Hey. Hey, you!

Try to stop me and I'll
have you put in jail.

- Brown.
- Hey, Warrick, it's Nick.

When is the last time you
found high-velocity exit spatter

with no brain and no bone?

Never.

Got the evidence yet?

You know what? Sara's here.

And she has the key. Got to go.

You know... I really
hate deceiving people

because, eventually,
you get what you give.

I hate being deceived.

Yes.

All right.

Anything I collected, we ignore.

You running your own samples?

Smart, considering that you're the
odds-on favorite in the I.A. pool.

- There's a pool now?
- Oh, yeah.

- Who's number two?
- That would be me.

- Number three?
- Grissom.

How's it going in here?

This glass wasn't shot out.

Take a look at that.

Spark plug?

The only mark a spark plug
makes is a nick at the center.

Now, who would know about that?

Crooks.

And cops.

And, hey, get this.

The blood found in Holstein's
car had high levels of EDTA.

Anti-coagulant.

Means the blood didn't come from
his head; it came from his arm.

That means this crime scene was staged.

Well, if Keppler is I.A.,

Catherine can't tell us
anything if she wanted to.

Yeah, if this is all I.A. BS, then why
would they play it out in the press?

Maybe Brass can help us out.

Let's roll.

I got a 20 on Simon, right here.

Thomas Simon, you're under
arrest! You two- step out.

- Is there a problem, Detective?
- A problem?

We're charging you with the
murder of Danilo Zamesca.

You already got a guy for that murder.

I saw it on the news.

Well, it's good to meet
an informed citizen.

Nine-millimeter.

Get him out of here.

Even your own district
attorney said she wasn't aware.

There's no way you'll get a jury to
believe this evidence wasn't fabricated.

Which one of you screwed this up?

I'm looking at him.

You dropped the ball, man.

You never cleared this
operation with the D.A.,

and now, she says she can't
tell fact from fiction.

She's not going to file
charges against Simon.

She's a tight-ass- I told her
what I thought she needed to know.

Did you hear what I said?

Now, what are you going
to tell the sheriff?

It's called reverse forensics.

Reverse forensics?

Simon had to believe it
when he saw it on the news.

He was a fugitive.

The only way to get him to show his face

was to make him think
he was off the hook.

And your only option
was to fabricate evidence

and make me process it?

How could you think that
we wouldn't figure it out?

It's kind of what we do.

I understand how you all feel.

I am sorry. I did not have a choice.

We trust you with our lives, Catherine.

You could have trusted us with this.

Sara?

If I have something to say to you,
Catherine, I'm gonna say it in private.

No offense.

Okay, look.

We can still get Simon.

He only walked on Zamesca.

He drove Monique Carter's
vehicle out into the desert.

Nick's established that.

Did he kill her, too?

Three calls were made
from Monique's cell phone

to Simon's strip club after she died.

There's another half a dozen calls to
Hugh Griffin, Bud Small, Frank Townsend.

All known associates.

He was using her phone to do
business, thinking it was safe.

Oh, yeah, the last call
was made to his wife's cell.

What hasn't been cleaned?

Furniture.

If Simon was hiding out
here for a couple of weeks,

he had to eat, sleep

and use the bathroom.

So, what did the cleaners miss?

There used to be a pillow here.

Maybe... he slept on the couch.

I'm going to pull some
hair 'cause you never know.

We'd have to get a court order
to compel a DNA sample from Simon.

That takes time. Brass can
only stall this guy's release

for a couple hours, you know.

Yeah, it's going to take
days to sort through these.

- Sara.
- It's a pullout.

Welcome back to the voice
of Las Vegas, KWMS radio.

Today, Thomas Simon,
alleged drug kingpin,

was charged with the slaying of
former attorney Monique Carter.

Ms. Carter and Assemblyman Zamesca
were classmates in law school,

and police are continuing to investigate
the link between the two crimes.

So I dig up a ghost.

I know he has a son who
was killed by drug dealers,

she's being killed by drugs.

He's got a savior complex, so I use
her to lure him out into the desert.

It's why I drive her car.

So he'll recognize it, feel safe.

You are aware that you talk about
the killer in the first person?

That's the point, isn't it?

Clouds my judgment to
identify with the victims.

Our job is to catch killers.

Guess it helps me to think like one.

You want to, uh, get
a drink or something?

Nah. No, I'm, I'm tired. I'm going home.

Nick. Nick!

Let it go, man.

Tonight we're talking
about anti-drug legislation

sponsored by the late
Assemblyman Danilo Zamesca.

It was passed into law today
by the Nevada State Legislature.

Tony from Seven Hills,
you're on the air.
