- Good afternoon, Detective.
- How's it going, Patrice?

- Not bad. Call for you.
- Great, send it back.

There are 77 '93 white Mazda pickups
in Colorado.

And I want a couple officers
to photograph every one of them.

So, when McCarthy's defense tries to say,

"How do you know the Mazda in the video
is his?"

We'll be able to show that
McCarthy's is the only one in the state

- with those markings.
- Yeah. Detective Parker,

this is Detective Rasmussen
from Westminster, Colorado.

How ya doin' today?

Not half bad. How can I help you?

Actually, I think this might be me
helping you.

We caught a serial rapist
here in Colorado recently.

- Good for you.
- Yeah, thank you.

And, uh, in going through his stuff,
we came across evidence

related to an unsolved case of yours
from a couple years back.

A... a rape?

That's right.
Victim's name is Marie Adler.

Oh, wow. That one.

Yes, sir.

Uh, yeah, that wasn't unsolved.

It was dismissed.

She, uh, made it up.

Are we talking about the same Marie Adler?

Date of birth 04/06/90. Five foot three.
110 pounds.

Yep, that's her. A complicated kid.

It's pretty sad, actually. We ended up
having to charge her with false reporting.

I mean, I felt bad for her,
but, you know, the law's the law.

Detective, would you mind giving me
your email address?

Sure. Uh, it's parker@lynnwoodpd.com.

Okay, I'm sending you something.
You let me know when you get it.

I just got it.

Yeah, when we were
going through our guy's stuff,

we found pictures of his victims.

Most were of women we already knew about.

The one I'm sending you, uh,
was the only one we didn't recognize.

Did it open?

- Detective?
- Yeah. Yes.

We have seven more of her.

The others are harder to look at.

I'll send them along,
so you have everything.

Yeah... okay.

So long.

What was that?

Detective Parker
to see Detective Rasmussen.

Hey, Gonzalez called.
He needs us to go through our files

and add up how many times McCarthy
stopped and started for each victim.

He can use each time he reentered
as a new rape charge.

Oh, I can do that.

Oh, look who's landed.

Detective Parker?

Yes, hi.

Grace Rasmussen.
Nice of you to come all this way.

We're in here.

That's a lot of paperwork.

It includes all our dead ends.

So, coffee, tea,
shitty snacks are over there in corner.

Mi junk food es su junk food.

Thanks.

That's good work.

That's very good work.

Thank you.

Looks like you have enough
to... send him away for a long time.

Mmm, I don't count my chickens.

I've seen rapists get probation
too many times to count on anything.

Here, why, uh, why don't I walk you out?

I feel like... um...

I should explain.

The problem is, uh...

I've got... nothing.

You know, you hear about bad cops.

You know, guys who make bad calls
or end up hurting the people

they're supposed to protect,
and I always think, like,

who the hell let him on the force, right?
Just get rid of him.

Maybe we should get rid of me.

Well, thank you.

You bet.

Hi, Marie.

You got a couple minutes?

Sorry to bother you at work.
This won't take long.

Um...

I got some information... recently
that I need to share with you.

Uh, I was contacted by some detectives
in Colorado last week.

They apprehended a... a rapist,
and when they looked through his stuff,

they found a picture of you.

Eight, actually. Eight pictures.

Taken during an assault.

During your assault.

The one I didn't believe. The one I...

made you say never happened.

I figured you wouldn't want to see me,
but I...

felt it was important
to tell you in person.

To look you in the eye
and tell you I was wrong.

I mean, I've been trying to figure out
how I could have been so off.

I wish I had an answer. I don't.

I'd do anything to go back,
and redo the whole thing.

To just start all over
and do right by you. I really would.

Well, you can't.

There's one more thing.

This is for you. It's from the City.

I sent one of these
over to the DA's office too.

It's everything I lifted
off McCarthy's electronics.

There were too many to print, so I zipped
thumbnails and put them on a drive.

There's also a list
of everything he downloaded.

Mm.

Check out the books. There's one in there
called The Rape Forensics Guide.

He had that? Why am I surprised?
Of course, he had that.

- You've heard of it?
- Yeah, it's written by cops.

I saw that.

They didn't think it through, did they?

No, they did not.

There's one more thing
that's bugging the shit out of me.

- What's that?
- He had a hard drive, 75 gigs.

He protected it with TrueCrypt.

It's this encryption software
no one's figured out how to bust into yet.

Seventy-five gigs is big.

Huge. It's an entire floor of the library.

You can't see what's in it?

Nope. All I can see are the names
of the files he dragged into it.

The main one was just called "Girls."
He dragged other files into that one.

Each one had a name. Amber. Sarah. Lilly.
And a bunch of other names.

Women he was stalking?
Other women he's raped?

I...

No, I know. Is there anything
that can tell you anything?

Not about content, no.

- You gotta get in there.
- I'm trying. Like I said...

Oh, I know, it's impossible,
I'm just saying, you have to.

- He's gotta get in there.
- I know.

I mean, who knows
what else this guy has done?

I know.

Well, he wants to plead guilty.

You're kidding.

Nope. His lawyer said
he wants to get it over with.

Not put his victims
through the pain of a trial.

Oh, now he's concerned
about their comfort.

It's not a bad move.

Depending on the judge,
it could really reduce his jail time.

- So, straight to sentencing.
- That's right.

- When?
- Couple months.

Take us a beat to get our ducks in a row.

And he has one condition.

He'll only do it if we drop
the kidnapping charges.

Wait, so he'll plead guilty
to multiple rapes

but doesn't like the charge of kidnapping
'cause it'll hurt his reputation?

Detective, if I try to understand
every criminal I prosecute...

Okay, talk to the victims.

I won't drop the kidnapping
unless they okay it.

We'll ask.

Hang on, if our women agree to this,
you'll counter?

Yep.

So, tell him you'll only drop kidnapping
if he gives up the password

to his hard drive.

I want to know every hideous thing
this guy's done.

I hear you, y... you're not wrong,

but I... I can't get into it right now.

Yeah, no, let's talk on Friday.

Uh... um...

Marie, um... eh, don't tell me.

- Adler.
- Adler. I told you not to tell me.

What brings you around here?

Wait. Oh, shoot. Walk with me.

No offense, Marie,

but I was hoping never to see you again.
What's up?

Oh, I need a lawyer.

Uh-oh. What happened?

No, no, no, I'm not the one in trouble.

I just need to press charges
against someone else.

Oh, well, I'm not...
I'm not that kind of lawyer.

Well, I know, but I... I thought
you might know someone who was.

Well, who do you want to sue?

Pretty much everybody,
but I thought I'd start with the City.

The same... you got the same number?

Yeah.

I'll get you a name.

Yeah, Don and I
went to law school together.

Spent more time on the basketball court
than in the library,

but somehow it worked out.

Uh, water, coffee?

Oh, uh, no, thanks.

So, he sent me
your case file, which...

By the way, let me just say,

what happened to you should not happen
to anyone, ever.

Yeah, well.

You know, no one ever accuses
a robbery victim of lying

or someone who says he was carjacked.

Doesn't happen.

But when it comes to sexual assault...

Anyway, have a seat.

So, Don told me about the check
they gave you.

Reimbursement for your fine.

How do you feel about that?

Well, at first, I was like, "$500, cool."

But then I got to thinking that there were
other things that I lost because of this.

Like... my job,

my housing,

free counselors.

Plus, you know... friendships.

And I know, it's, like, "Hey,
$500 that you didn't have yesterday,"

but my whole life, I've just been, like,

"Take what you get,
and just be happy that it's not worse."

But something about this
made me feel like...

maybe that's not good enough this time.

You know what happens when you decide
you're not gonna just

take what you get anymore?

What?

You get more.

- Okay, so I spoke to our victims.
- Hello to you too, Detective.

Oh, hey, uh,...they're
okay with you dropping kidnapping

- and not going to trial...
- Excellent.

...as long as they can address the court
at his sentencing.

They wanna look him in the eye.

Yeah, sure, of course.
I gotta take this, thanks.

- Hang on. What about the password?
- Oh, yeah. No, he won't give it up.

What do you mean? He's a fucking rapist.
How about he doesn't have a choice?

- What should I do? Waterboard him?
- Can you?

Just tell him, if he doesn't cough it up,
you're goin' to trial,

kidnapping and everything.

I have a serial rapist who's pleading
guilty to 30 counts of sexual assault.

Okay? I'm not gonna blow this
on a password.

- Gonzalez. Ah, shit.
- There are other women on there.

Don't you wanna know who they are,
what happened?

Yes, but I'm not gonna risk going to trial
with this guy. Okay?

See you at the sentencing.

You good?

Yeah.

You okay?

Hey, there she is.

Come on in.

I have nightmares.

I am scared... all of the time.

Every minute of every day.

My friends try to help me,
but I have a hard time trusting people.

Uh, I can't sleep.

I'm in pain.

I've lost weight.

I've lost work. I've lost money.

I have violent thoughts.

I've never had violent thoughts before,
ever.

You think it's just one night.

Compared to all of the other minutes
of my life,

how could this one short incident
make a difference? But...

it does.

Your Honor, what I really want to do
is I wanna ask the defendant a question.

Can I do that?

By all means.

Why did you pick me?

What was I doing
that made you wanna come for me?

I'm so scared of doing it again.

I don't water my lawn anymore.
I... I don't read by the window.

They say that routines
make you vulnerable,

so anything routine, I just stopped doing.

It's made my world very small,

and I still don't feel safe.

I think if I just knew what it was,
what I did.

If I knew what that one thing was,
then I'd stop doing it

and then maybe
I could get my life back again.

Your Honor,
Mr. McCarthy has other victims,

ones who weren't up to being here today
and seeing him.

They want to be sure you don't misread
their absence as indifference

'cause they care about
what is happening here today

more than you can imagine.

If at any point
in the near or distant future,

Mr. McCarthy is a free man,

they will not feel safe...

ever.

And these women deserve to feel safe.

Bottom line is
they don't want to go to trial,

which is good.

Neither do we.

Why not?

Because they will try to make you look
as bad as they do.

They already did that once,
let's not give them another swing at it.

So, everyone wants a settlement,
the question is how much.

We have an offer.

It's just an opening. We'll go back.

How much is it for?

A hundred and fifty thousand dollars.

They wanna give me a $150,000?

No, they don't want
to give you anything,

but that is what they're willing
to give you to bury this.

Tell them I'll take it.

No, look, we can do much better.

I... I don't need better.

A hundred and fifty thousand dollars
is a lot of money.

It's enough for me to get out of here,
start over somewhere else.

Plus, really, all I need is for them
to acknowledge what they did to me.

And this does that.

I'd like them to acknowledge it more.

Like, double.

I want this to be over.

Mr. McCarthy...

you treated these women
as if they were your prey.

Your actions were pure evil.

And because of this, you have lost
the privilege of living in a free society.

I'm assessing the maximum penalty.

I am sentencing you to 327
and one half years in prison.

Fucking A.

This court is now adjourned.
Thank you.

Okay. So, confession time.

Uh, I, uh... I did something this morning
that I've never done before.

Uh-oh. I'm a little scared.

I prayed.

Shut up, you did not.

I did. I bowed my head and I said,

"Listen, motherfucker,

you let all this horrible shit go down
day after day after day.

Is it too much to ask on this one day,
you get one fucking thing right"?

And look, it worked.

- Hey, did you tell her yet?
- Tell me what?

This is it. Right here.

We don't need to get into this.

What do you mean?
What don't we, uh, need to get into?

This is the exact spot
where Max the Knife was born.

Who?

His alter ego. Come on, tell her.

- I have no idea what you're talking about.
- Oh, come on.

- I gotta take a piss.
- Oh, no! What? Come on, tell me.

I don't like that.

Uh, that is because you have a problem
with control.

Oh, I have a problem with control.

- Wow, me.
- Yeah.

If you don't have every little piece
of information...

if you don't make
all the decisions yourself... whoa.

- So, I'm sorry, can you hear this?
- Whatever it is, I agree with Grace.

I'm just saying,
if you could loosen up a little...

Oh, please, you are, like, the least
loose loose person I have ever met.

You're, like, faux-loose.

- Are you kidding me?
- No.

- Good evening, Detectives.
- Oh, Taggart. This is my guy, Steve.

- Evening.
- Hey.

Uh, interesting update.
Chris McCarthy's lawyer called,

says he wants to be interviewed.

Says he wants to explain himself.

He thinks it could be helpful
to law enforcement.

- Are you serious? We get to talk to him?
- No, not you, just me.

Believe it or not,
women make him uncomfortable.

Well, the problem is
you're always a step behind.

You're reacting.

You wanna catch guys like me,
you gotta get out ahead of us.

Anticipate,
because we think about this a lot.

And we're smart.

Smart how?

Careful with prints. Careful with DNA.

It's like being out in the wilderness.
Leave no trace.

It's easier to catch guys like you

when they're just starting out.

Well, it's like anything. You know,
the more you do it, the better you get.

That first one, up in Washington?

I left... all kinds of stuff behind.

Hair, fluids.

All I could think about was all that DNA,
you know, all over the place.

All they had to do was compare it
to my military records.

I was dead sure they were gonna knock
on my door the next day and take me away.

But nothing happened.

And so you think...

"Okay.

Cool, I guess I can do this."

Hey, we got the guy.

Okay.

What is it?

You know...

...it's all the other sociopaths out there
with their rape kits and their guns,

thinking... "Hey, I guess I can do this."

You can't do that.

You can't take on
all the bad guys at once.

We did a good thing getting this guy.
Let it be a good thing.

You got the job done.
Cheer the fuck up. God!

Okay.

Yes!

- "One day's burden is enough for one day."
- Exactly.

"One day's burden is enough for one day."
I like that.

It's from the Bible.

- Shut up.
- Matthew 6:34.

Whatever that means.

Do you feel remorse?

I mean,
I know I can't be out there.

I wasn't ever gonna stop.

Congratulations, hon,
drive carefully.

Thank you.

- You can just pay the clerk at window C.
- Thank you.

- Yes, sir, how can I help you?
- Hi...

- Excuse me.
- Yes?

Could you take my picture for me?

Sure.

There you go.

- Thank you.
- You're welcome.

Parker.

Um...

Yeah. Yes, send her up.

Oh, okay.

I'll come down.

Marie, hi.

Uh, do you want to go somewhere,
so we can talk?

No. I don't really wanna
be alone with you.

You understand that, right?

I guess so.

Yes.

So, I got my $500 back.

And I got more money from the City,
as you probably know.

I do.

You know what I never got...

ever...

from anybody?

An apology.

Even I know, when you mess up,
you apologize.

And when you mess up so bad,

when your one stupid mistake

ruins a person's entire life,

you apologize more.

I'm sorry.

I'm very, very sorry.

Next time...

do better.

Okay.

I was really hoping he would give up
that goddamn password.

Jason said he'd keep at it
in his free time.

- He has free time?
- Not really, no.

Hey...

um...

Listen, before you go...

- I just wanted to say...
- Oh, no, no, don't. Please.

- Don't what?
- Do that thing, that...

sincere "this has meant the world to me"
woman-bonding thing.

No, I... I was not going to woman-bond.

- Bullshit.
- No.

No. I was just, uh, was just gonna say...

What?

Okay, fine you're right.
I was gonna woman-bond.

Cut me some slack.

I never had a mentor.

I hate the word mentor.

Fine...

I won't say anything.

Thank you.

This is Detective Duvall.

Hi, um...

I don't know if you know who I am, uh...

this is Marie Adler.

Marie Adler.

Of course I know who you are.

I hope it's okay that I'm calling.

I got your number from my lawyer.

Yes, of course.

How are you?

I'm okay. I'm, uh...
I'm at the beach, actually.

- Well, that sounds nice.
- Yeah, it is.

Um...

Hey, I just, um...
I... I was calling to say, uh...

to... to thank you for, you know,
everything that you did.

Well, of course.

I'm... I'm so glad we were able to help.

You did...

totally.

You know, the thing is,
I've spent my whole life...

trying really hard to believe
that most people are basically good,

even when the ones I knew weren't.

I don't know, I guess it just...

gave me hope or something.

I can see that.

Then this thing happened. The rape and...

I don't know,
it just became harder for me to...

believe that there was really any good
in the world.

And I think that that was the hardest part
of this whole thing.

Waking up feeling hopeless.

And I would think things like, "Well...

if the world is this bad, do I...

do I even wanna be in it?"
You know?

I do.

But then, out of nowhere,

I hear about these two people

in some completely other part
of the country,

looking out for me
and making things right.

And...

I don't know, more than...
more than anything else,

more than him getting locked up...

more than the money I got,

it was hearing that,

about you guys, that

just changed things completely.

And I... I wake up now,

and...

I can imagine good things happening.

I'm... I'm so happy to hear that, Marie.

So, anyway, I just...

wanted you to know that you...
you did that for me...

and to say thank you.

You're welcome.

Thank you for calling.

Yeah, you bet.

Uh, hey, you have a good day, okay?

You too.

Okay.

Bye.

Bye.

I got a call from someone
just now.

Yeah.

Marie Adler.

- Oh, my God.
- Yeah.

- What'd she say?
- She was calling from the beach.

And she was calling to say
she's doing very well.

And that, uh, she wanted to say...

thank you.
