[male announcer]
In New York City's
war on crime,

the worst criminal offenders
are pursued

by the detectives
of the Major Case Squad.

These are their stories.

[moaning]

I gotta get home.

I meant it last night.

We'll talk later.

Hurry up!

Here, let's take this.

What's that for?

It's just for show.

[speaking Spanish]

- Work?
- Take me.

I work. Por favor?

Eh, work?
I work hard.

I work hard.

Eh?

I didn't hear you
come in last night.

Me either.
And I waited up.

I was working on my film.

I didn't want to wake you.

Your mother was worried.

Sorry, Eme.

You'll be home for dinner?

Yeah, I'll try.

Meda meda.

Was it you?
Huh?

Did you hit the baby?
Huh?

Was it you?

Hey, are you crazy, man?

You crazy?

Get out of our neighborhood!

Hold him!

[chainsaw roaring]

Stop!
Don't!

I'm taping all of you!

What the hell
do you think you're doing?

Get her.

Terrorist bitch!

Give me the camera.

Get away from me.

Give me the camera.

Get away from my camera!

[laughing]

Meena Hasni, 19.

Student of Queensboro
Community College.

4-9-1-1.

It's for 9-11?
Another hate crime?

Third attack
on a Muslim this month.

If you're keeping score.

You have any witnesses?

We're canvassing.

ME puts the death
within an hour

of midnight either way.

Pretty quiet around here
by then.

Whoever it was, they smashed
the hell out of her face.

Yeah, but they left
her gold bracelets,

her watch, her wallet.

Somebody
was sending a message.

Well, looks like
she fought back.

She's got scratches
on her left hand here.

Whoever it was,
they really gave her a beating.

And left her to die
under the whole world.

Lucky for us, she still
had her video camera.

Was it you?
Huh?

Hey, man,
are you crazy?

Get out of our neighborhood!

Hold him!

Chainsaw?

What the hell
do you think you're doing?

Give me the camera.

That's weird.

Oh, wait.
Freeze that.

Since when do Jews
care about Mexicans

taking their jobs?

They don't,
but they sure were upset

when they say Meena taping.

They went right at her.

[rewinding sounds]

This is all early morning.

Look at the shadows.

That means
the timeline is off.

How did she end up dead
at the Unisphere 15 hours later?

Wait, hold on.

Zoom in there.

Savoy at Little Neck.

So this shape-up
must be right by

the Nassau County border.

Visitors welcome.

Hey, fellas.
Habla Ingles?

Policia!
Policia!

Hey, hold on, hold on!
Come here!

[speaking Spanish]

It's okay.

[speaking Spanish]

We just wanna know
who attacked you yesterday.

No one.

All right, look,
you got nothing to worry about

with us, all right?

Who had the chainsaw?

It was three white boys.

Two had bats,
one had a saw to my face.

I could feel the breeze.

Did you recognize them?

Not these guys.

Okay, so you've been
harassed before, huh?

Every day.

I mean, usually they yell at us
about stealing jobs,

but yesterday, these guys,
they kept yelling...

The baby.
Who hit the baby?

And how about her?

Yeah.

She had a camera.

And they yell at her
to stop.

And they ran after her.

And then...
And then we ran.

Go ahead.

"Who hit the baby?"

Last Friday night
a mother and her stroller

were hit by a van
full of day laborers

on Northern Boulevard.

She was on her way
to Synagogue.

Well, this has
got to be payback.

Until Meena got in the way.

Some illegal alien
runs over a mother

and her baby
and you arrest me?

Recognize this one?

No.

No?

No.

'Cause we have videotape
of you and your chainsaw buddies

chasing this woman
who ends up like this.

Okay, we ran after her,
but that's all we did.

I mean, she was spyingon us.

Where'd you chase her?

Through the empty lot.

She fell,
she got up,

and then she ran
towards the subway.

And where did you go?

To the Jewish
Community Center.

We teach Hebrew.

Your Rabbi
gonna back you up?

Of course.

We didn't hurt the Mexicans
or that Arab girl.

We just want these people
out of our neighborhood

before they kill any more
of our children.

Put your hand on the table
where I can see it.

Go on.

Now spread your fingers.

He gave up
the other two batters.

No priors on any of them.

They even pay their
parking tickets on time.

And their rabbi
confirmed their alibi.

Three upstanding
racist orthodox Jews.

In Queens, the most
ethnically diverse county

in the country.

I guess that makes them
even more xenophobic.

The Unisphere.

It was built to symbolize
the theme

of the '64 World's Fair.

Peace Through Understanding.

I spoke to Meena's
college advisor.

She was making a documentary
about racism in Queens.

And her film partner
Emily Williams left town

yesterday morning.

She's on her way
back now.

Family's on the way
to the morgue

to ID the body.

Yes, that's Meena.

My daughter.

Look at her face.

We're very sorry
for your loss, Mr. Hasni.

Who would do this?

We're in the process
of investigating that right now.

Do you know
who she was with last night?

The body must be washed.

Could you tell us
the last time you saw her?

Yesterday, at breakfast.

The funeral must happen
right away!

If you wouldn't mind
just answering

a few questions first.

How am I going
to tell your mother?

Not now, please.
Another time.

Cause of death...

a contracue injury
to the brain.

Explain that
to my partner.

I'll listen too.

All right,
her head hit the ground.

Her brain smacked against
the back of her skull,

which fractured.

Then the brain rebounded

and collided
with the front of her skull.

Contracue.

Oh, got it.

Yeah.

You see this
with rollerbladers

who don't wear helmets.

You hit your head like that,
don't get to a neurosurgeon

in ten minutes,
you're an organ donor.

Uh, Rodgers, what about

these bruises on her face?

[Rodgers]
Not enough impact
to kill her.

But I did
find pieces of concrete

in her cheeks, nose.

So she falls backwards...

gets a hematoma
that'll kill her.

But her attacker
doesn't know that,

so he turns her around.

Bashes her face
into the ground.

That's a lot of rage.

Yeah.

One more thing.

She was
seven weeks pregnant.

I saw Meena yesterday.

I was her family counselor,

but that's all
I can say about it.

You know
someone killed her last night.

I know.

I'm sorry, but it's supposed
to be kept confidential.

Oh, look.

Okay, Miss,
Meena was Pakistani and Muslim.

We make one call to the Feds,
they can invoke the Patriot Act,

get all the records.

Now, I don't wanna
go that route, but I will.

Geez. Okay.

She came in
with her boyfriend

and it was tense.

What was his name?

Uh, Rudi Ventano.

He was pushy.

She wanted
to discuss options

and he kind of flipped.

Meaning he wanted her
to get an abortion.

No, that wasn't it
at all.

I wanted Meena
to have the baby.

But she didn't want to?

We'd have worked it out.
I loved her.

I wanted her
to move in with me,

get married, everything.

When did you see her last?

The night before.
We spent it together.

Rudy, Meena had breakfast
with her family.

Look, she always did that, okay?

She'd sneak home
before they woke up.

They didn't
know about you?

They didn't approve.

It was the religion thing.

So you're sure that's
the last time you saw her.

That's not what they told us
at the clinic, Rudy.

Yeah, I saw her
yesterday afternoon.

Like I said,
nothing was resolved.

Okay.

By the way,
what happened to your hand?

I was doing construction.

Listen to your uncle, Joseph.

You got nothing
to worry about!

What if someone saw me?

They'd have
taken you in.

Look, if they want
to talk to you again,

what were you doing?

I was with you,
watching the Knicks.

Perfect!

And afterwards?

Nobody needs
to know about that.

Look, you were
sleeping down here,

I went upstairs.

Got it?

You mother
said she was trouble, Rudy,

from day one.

Rudy, she's gone now.

Meena didn't have a boyfriend,
she was a good girl.

Very studious.

Rudy Ventano
said they were in love.

What?
What nonsense.

I told my daughter...

stay away
from those people.

They're thugs.

In the mafia.
They hate us.

The mafia?

Are you talking
about Italians?

You have dark skin
and an accent,

they'd beat you to death
as soon as look at you.

Rudy was one of 'em.

Your daughter
had many friends.

Classmates.
Our daughter studied very hard.

She didn't
have time to date.

Then why did Rudy say
that he and Meena

were getting married?

'Cause he's a liar.

Mr. and Mrs. Hasni,
this is difficult,

but we need to tell you,
Meena was pregnant.

No.

That's impossible.
Meena was promised to Tariq.

Who is Tariq?

Tariq Amir.
From LaHore.

Our family
and the Amir family,

we had an agreement.

Tariq came here
two weeks ago

and enrolled at Queensboro.

They were supposed
to marry.

Then move back together
to Pakistan.

Meena agreed to that,
an arranged marriage?

Those were the wishes
of her family.

She must have told Rudy.
Maybe he got angry.

My child.

My child.

My child
and my grandchild.

So, we've got one girl,
two fiancés.

One fiancé must have
found out about the other

and taken it out
on Meena.

And her family
blames the Italian.

When they admit he exists.

They're in denial.

They actually believe
she was going

to accept
an arranged marriage.

A 19-year-old
college student born here.

From a radically
different culture

where the parents' judgment
is absolute.

Anyone you can talk to
outside of her family?

Her documentary partner,
Emily Williams.

[Meena]
This is the Jewel
of Punjab,

the restaurant
my parents owned until 9-11,

when everything changed.

And everyone
stopped coming.

Now they work here
with my brother Dani.

He had to drop out of college
to help the family.

When our customers
shunned the restaurant,

we came here.

And we all live
in a small apartment on top.

What did Meena's parents
say about the documentary?

They never saw it.

It won the student film award
last year,

and they weren't interested.

Meena and her parents
weren't on the same page

about her life, her studies?

Yeah, because Meena
wanted a life.

Her family's friends
called her an ABCD.

American Born
Confused Dessie.

A Dessie's someone
from Southern Asia.

Meena was split
between the two worlds.

So she argued
with her family?

No.
She was too respectful.

Was she really going along
with an arranged marriage?

No.

She was in love with Rudy.

Had you noticed
any tension between them lately?

We know about
her pregnancy.

Look, she loved Rudy.

But she wasn't ready
to move into his mom's basement

and start a family.

His mom's basement?
That was his plan?

Yeah, but she said
that was as bad

as what her parents wanted.

So she decided
to have an abortion.

She made up her mind
when she got back

from the clinic.

I was gonna go with her
next week.

That's a lie.
We loved each other.

Meena may have
loved you, Rudy,

but she wasn't ready
to be barefoot, pregnant,

and in your basement.

She was confused, okay?

She was scared.
So was I.

You're saying
Meena loved you,

but she didn't tell you?

You wanna be
a little careful here, Rudy,

because you've already
lied to us once

and you're not
very good at it.

Okay, she told me.
Later that night.

The night she was killed?

That's when she told you
she'd scheduled an abortion?

Was there any reason you didn't
tell us this before, Rudy?

Now tell us
the whole story.

We went for a walk
at the Unisphere.

She was crying.

I was upset.
We were stressed.

We kind of went at it.

And I did the worst thing
I ever did in my life.

What was that?

I left her
in the park alone.

What time was that?

10:00, 10:30.

And then
where did you go?

I went home.

I spent the rest of the night
with my Uncle Joseph.

If I could
just take it back.

Leaving her there.

I'd do anything.

Well, he seems
genuinely upset.

He has a lot of guilt.

Yeah, he left his girlfriendto die.

Or he killed her.

Meena could have told him
she was having an abortion,

he flew into a rage.

I don't get that from him.

He wanted to control her.

Like everyone else
in her life.

He may have pressured her
to have their baby,

but I'm with Logan.

I don't see him
bashing her skull in

or writing 4-9-11

in her blood.

You wanna street him?

Sure.

He'll just run home to mama
if we need him.

In the meantime,
talk to his uncle.

If Rudy has any idea
who killed Meena,

he'll tell his uncle
before he'd tell us.

We should
call my cousin Vera, okay?

She's an attorney,
she'll help you.

She's a paralegal, Ma.

And I don't
need a lawyer, okay?

Where are you going?
Don't go anywhere.

Look, I have to
talk to them, okay?

Explain what happened
before the cops tell them

I was with her.

Don't be crazy.
Talk?

To those Arabs?

Pakistanis.
Not Arabs!

How many times
I gotta tell you?

Yeah, my Rudy.

He was in love
with that girl.

She was gonna
move in with him down here.

He built a room
for the baby?

Yeah.
Yeah, sure.

And who
put the hole in the wall?

Rudy.

When he found out
she was killed, bam,

he went ballistic.

So your son
has a temper.

Oh, Joseph, basta.

No, my son, he had nothing
to do with this girl's death.

Cecilia, please.

Don't start in
with me, Joseph.

I know what happened,
all right?

Mrs. Ventano, Rudy saw Meena
the night she was killed.

Whoa whoa,
and he left her alive.

He spent the night here, with me.

What were you two doing?

We were watching the game.

Yeah, the Knicks.

Oh, yeah.

You remember the final score?

It was memorable.

The Knicks won.

Double overtime.

He was here.

You should be talking
to her family!

Those people,
those Muslims,

they're killing each other
all the time!

The bombs, cutting each other's
heads off.

They're like animals,
those people.

Mrs. Ventano.

This isn't
a terrorist attack,

it's a homicide.

I apologize
for my sister.

Don't you apologize for me.

Why are you bothering us?

Why don't you
go talk to those Arabs?

'Cause God only knows
what they've doing to him.

What they're doing
to him?

Are you saying that
your son went over there?

He left an hour ago.

I begged him not to go.

He said he needed
to let them know

that he was innocent.

Let's go.

Listen, Meena loved me.

- You killed my sister.
- No, man--

Get out!
Leave us alone.

Hey, watch it, man.

Think you can come in here,
threatening us?

Back off!

Hey, hey!
What is going on?

What is happening?

Look, I just need
to explain, okay?

You get out!

This is
what you people do.

Look, just take it easy.

Get off me!

[speaking Punjabi]

What the hell
are you doing?

[speaking Punjabi]

Just drop the gun.

Aaagh!

[speaking Punjabi]

Hey!

Kazi, no!

Savia!

[yelling in Punjabi]

[gunshot]

Drop that gun!

Drop it!

Rudy just showed up
threatening me.

Telling me
to keep my mouth shut.

About what?

That Meena
was breaking up with him.

He told me
not to tell the police.

I said I would
say whatever I wanted

and he jumped me.

And then
your father came in.

Yeah.

Please, my husband
is not a violent man.

I know he doesn't
have a license for the gun.

Well, after 9-11
we needed it.

Just to scare them.

They attacked
our restaurant.

He would
never hurt anyone.

He never
even used it.

Until tonight.

This is America?

I'm a citizen.

Don't I have the right
to protect my family?

Mr. Hasni, you have a right
to remain silent.

We're bringing you
down to the station.

He came at me
and my son!

You're under arrest,
Mr. Hasni.

- No, please.
- Kazi!

[speaking Punjabi]

Kazi!
Why are you doing this?

Kazi!

My father
was protecting us!

You see
what they do to him?

Let him go!

Let him go!

[chanting]
Let him go!
Let him go!

Listen, I do not care
how tragic this is.

If you try to incite a riot,

I'm gonna throw your ass
in jail!

You understand me?
Now, cool it!

My boy.
No!

No, please.
I want my boy.

Why?

There was nothing
we could do.

Get your hands off me!

We're very sorry
for your loss.

I told him.

I told him that family
was gonna kill him.

And those monsters
killed him.

Charges just went up
from attempted murder

to murder.

Mr. Hasni
was just arranged.

The public defender

claimed defense of self
and others.

We'll see
what a jury says.

So we still don't know
who killed Meena,

but now we have two families
locked in a tribal war.

Post a car outside
the Ventano home

and the Hasni home.

What?

Trouble?

Too late.

The precinct reports
a 1031

at the Hasni family store.

The car's en route.

[yelling]

[crying]

Why is he refusing
your lawyer?

He's very emotional
right now.

He probably shouldn't be
talking to anybody.

If you decide
to press charges...

What is she doing here?

Oh!

My son is dead
because of you!

I'm so sorry.

You're sorry?
You killed my son!

You killed my boy!

Your son, my daughter.

Your whore daughter.
You terrorist bitch!

You've had enough.
Let's go.

I'm the only father he had.

I never married.

I worked as a doorman
for 30 years

so he wouldn't have to.

All for nothing.

Did Rudy
want to marry Meena?

Yeah, yeah.

My sister doesn't
need to know the truth, okay?

I don't want her to know.

What is the truth?

What does it matter, huh?

He's gone!

You gonna let him
take the rap

for killing
the one person he loved?

Come on, Joseph.

It's time for you to tell us
what he was doing that night.

And this time, the truth.

Okay.

He came home
close to 11:00.

They had a big fight
over the baby.

And?

Oh, no...

And stupid me,
what do I know?

I mean, I wanted
to make him feel better.

So I...

I took him
to a cathouse.

Write down the address.

[Logan] We didn't come here
to arrest you.

[Wheeler]
We just wanna talk to you
about this guy.

His name is Ventano. Rudy.

Might have used
a different name.

He used his real name.

Tuesday night,
arrived 11:00 with his uncle.

They had drinks,
came in here with me at 12:00.

For how long?

Friendly uncle
paid for an hour.

Did you notice
if the younger guy

had any bruises
or scratches on him?

We didn't get that far.

He wouldn't even
let me touch.

Why not?

He just cried
the whole time.

About?

His girlfriend
didn't want to have his baby.

Not what I usually hear.
She's lucky to have him.

Yeah, well,
her luck ran out.

What does
your hooker intuition say?

Hooker intuition?

I didn't even know
they were using Blackberries.

She's got no reason to lie.

If Rudy didn't do it,
we're back to Tariq,

the spurned suitor.

- Boat ticket.
- Take it.

Why not just fly home?

They are
looking for you, Tariq.

Then I should hide.

You'll end up
in prison.

You have any idea
how Americans would treat you?

The police, the criminals,
the guards?

You've seen what they do.

Rudy didn't kill Meena.

They had a fight in the park,
he left her there.

His uncle
took him to a brothel.

And he didn't
sleep with the hooker,

he just cried about Meena.

Does Meena's father know?

Not yet.

He's in Rikers.
Hasn't posted bail yet.

Next time
you see Mr. Hasni

let him know
the kid he killed

loved his daughter.

Thank you.

That was the INS.

The fiancé, Tariq Amir,

they picked him up last night
trying to board a freighter.

Will wonders never cease?

Meena Hasni,
I barely knew her.

You were gonna
marry her, weren't you?

Of course.

That's why I came here.

Yeah, but she didn't want
anything to do with you, right?

Her family
couldn't control her.

Yeah, that's what I said.

She didn't want
anything to do with you.

No!

She wasn't pure.

And in your eyes
that's a disgrace.

Is that
why you killed her?

Why would I kill her?

Not worth
wasting a bullet

or dulling a knife.

I told her father
she was a whore.

Nice.

Where were you Tuesday night?

At a restaurant.

Uh-huh.

Here's the receipt.

This is a strip club,
Mr. Amir.

Was it a pure one?

Okay, her parents
didn't do a great job

picking out
a husband for her.

But if his alibi checks,
we're back to square one.

Maybe not.

Meena's family said she'd agreed
to the marriage.

They were ashamed
to tell us the truth.

Imagine the shame
when Tariq told Kazi

his daughter was a whore.

Maybe Kazi tried to bring herto heel.

An honor killing.
In New York?

A lot of women
in a lot of countries

have been killed for less.

The thing is, Mr. Hasni...

Rudy didn't kill
your daughter.

I saw him.

I saw his temper.

You didn't see the way
he went after my boy.

Turns out he had an alibi.
He was with someone else.

It can't be.

This family, they tell lies
for him.

No.
We checked, Mr. Hasni.

We're sure of it.

The boy was innocent?

What have I done?

She...
broke my heart.

America.

I came here
25 years ago.

I thought my children
would have a better life.

And in one day...

it all changed.

I don't want my grandchildren
to grow up here now.

Well, you've lost a lot
in five years.

Your home
and your restaurant.

Your daughter
meets an American boy.

Then she defies you
in front of Tariq.

We also know that Tariq
didn't kill your daughter.

He also has an alibi
for that night.

Which brings us
to where you were

the night
your daughter was killed.

Mr. Hasni,
as your attorney,

I would--
No, no, no.

No, I want to confess.

I killed my daughter.

Charge me with the crime.
Write it down, I will sign it.

Mr. Hasni, we can't tell you
what to say.

You have to tell us
what you did.

Start with the park.

How did you know
your daughter was even there?

I followed her from home.

I thought she was going
to run away with that boy.

It was 10:00 at night.
You weren't working?

I left my son
and my wife in the store.

And your daughter,
she was alone in the park?

No, she was with
that boy Rudy.

They were arguing.

He left, I thought now
she would listen to reason.

I told her that I could fix it
so that she could

still marry Tariq.

But she refused.

And then
you got into a fight.

Yes.
We were angry.

And people didn't hear you?

They probably couldn't hear you
because the fountain was on.

Yes.

Yes, that's right.

Go on.

I...
I pushed her.

Hard.
She fell.

She was bleeding.

And I left her there to...

die.

That is what happened.

He's obviously lying.

The fountain's emptied
in October.

Yeah, the million-dollar
question is,

who's he protecting?

[Meena]
This was
our beautiful home

before we had to move
to the apartment

above the store.

Her first movie.

It was about our family?

You never saw it?

No, my husband
didn't want to.

[Meena]
This is my mother
and father

on their
wedding anniversary.

Their marriage
was arranged for them

22 years ago.

I believe they love each other
very much.

But I've never
seen them kiss.

They just work
all the time.

This is my boyfriend Rudy.

Hey, look at the camera.
Look at the camera.

I've never
seen him work.

Think that'll be me?

Just be running around.

Why are you
showing me this?

So that you can see
what she saw.

That he loved her.

Yes, I know.

He didn't hurt her.

I understand.

And Meena was right,

you love your husband,
don't you?

Very much.

Where was he
the night Meena was killed?

In the store with me.

And where
was your son?

Zaphir, we think one of them
may have been

in the park that night.

No.

Your husband said it was him.

He confessed
to the murder.

No, no, that's not true.

He was with me all night.

Then he shouldn't
spend his life in jail

for a crime
he didn't commit.

There would be no honor
in that.

What do you mean?

Someone needs
to speak up for you daughter.

Who can do that
better than you?

[Meena]
I want to spend
the rest of my life with him.

But my parents,
they'll never understand.

[Wheeler]
She was
just starting her life.

Someone took it
from her.

If I tell you
who killed my daughter,

will you have mercy
on my husband?

[Dani]
I was over there
by those trees.

And Rudy and Meena were here, fighting.

About what?

I couldn't hear her,
but he was angry.

Your father
was with you?

No, I was alone.
So you can let him go.

No, Dani,
that's not enough.

He already confessed.

What you said
doesn't prove anything.

My father is lying.

How do we know that?

I mean, we're trying
to get to the truth here,

but you're gonna
have to help us.

Otherwise, you know,
we're gone.

And then
your father's finished.

I'm telling you, I saw it.
The whole thing.

I saw Rudy kill her.

Specifically what did you see?

I was over there.
And they were here arguing.

He pushed her.

So you saw all that
from over there in the dark.

I kept moving closer.

I ended up over there.

Why were you
even in the park?

I followed her
to protect her.

Then why didn't
you stop the fighting?

Because he moved too fast.

He shoved her down, hard.
That was it.

He pushed her
from the front or the back?

We know the right answer
from the autopsy.

Show us what happened
and use Detective Wheeler here.

Go ahead,
you won't hurt me.

That's it?

She didn't fight back?

No.

She was surprised.

He pushed her
harder than that.

Meena fell to the ground
and hit the back of her head.

How hard?

Show me.

Then what?

He, uh...

He got down
next to her.

And... he turned her around.

Why did he do that?

Because he can't
bear to look at her.

Go on.

He grabs
the back of her head.

How, Dani?

[grunts]

Ugh!
Ugh!

He bashes her face
against the concrete.

Until she's dead!

And his family is saved.

Why, Dani?

Because she wouldn't
marry Tariq.

The one thing
they asked her to do.

I had to do
everything they asked.

I gave up college,
my future.

To honor them.

And you shame them?

You defied papa?

Tariq called you a whore
in front of our father.

I had to.

I tried to save our family
from your dishonor.

I tried.

Oh, my God.

Oh, Meena.

Meena, please.
Please forgive me.

Please, Meena.

Please.
Please forgive me.

It's too late, Dani.

It's too late.

Put your hands
behind your back.

You're under arrest.

Take him.
