1. In the criminal
justice system...
Copy !req
2. sexually-based offenses
Copy !req
3. are considered
especially heinous.
Copy !req
4. In New York City,
the dedicated detectives...
Copy !req
5. who investigate
these vicious felonies
Copy !req
6. are members of an elite squad
Copy !req
7. known as
the Special Victims Unit.
Copy !req
8. These are their stories.
Copy !req
9. Tag and bag as soon as
the detectives are through.
Copy !req
10. She's been
out here long enough.
Copy !req
11. What's up, Doc?
Veronica Tandy...
Copy !req
12. 34 years old, stabbed in
the back, raped from behind.
Copy !req
13. Any fluids?
Not that I can see.
Copy !req
14. We'll swab. Hopefully,
find traces with the Luma.
Copy !req
15. I've got a domestic
homicide mid-town...
Copy !req
16. so I've scheduled the autopsy
later this afternoon.
Copy !req
17. Don't be late.
Don't be late.
Copy !req
18. She's got
a bruise on her neck.
Copy !req
19. She was yoked.
Copy !req
20. External examination
found no traces of semen.
Copy !req
21. Further testing...
Copy !req
22. showed spermicides
usually found in condoms.
Copy !req
23. This is fun.
Copy !req
24. Damn.
Copy !req
25. Problem?
Copy !req
26. Single fetus present,
seven to eight weeks.
Copy !req
27. That'll probably
get suppressed at trial.
Copy !req
28. According to the law,
a fetus is not a person.
Copy !req
29. The stab wound was 2 inches wide,
8 inches deep, one edge serrated.
Copy !req
30. That's a big knife.
Copy !req
31. Cause of death?
Cardiopulmonary failure.
Copy !req
32. The blade entered the back between
the ribs, collapsing the left lung.
Copy !req
33. Takes care of any screaming.
Copy !req
34. Could you grab that?
Copy !req
35. Morgue.
Copy !req
36. Be right out.
Copy !req
37. Husband's here to ID the body.
Copy !req
38. Mr. Tandy?
Copy !req
39. I'm Det. Benson
from the Special Victims Unit.
Copy !req
40. Are you alone?
Copy !req
41. It's a mistake.
Copy !req
42. My wife isn't here.
Copy !req
43. Mr. Tandy...
Copy !req
44. She's supposed to be home.
Copy !req
45. She's supposed to be home!
She's supposed to be home!
Copy !req
46. We were supposed to meet last
night at Café des Artistes at 7:00.
Copy !req
47. When she didn't show up,
I called her assistant...
Copy !req
48. Charlene.
Copy !req
49. She said that
she'd left early...
Copy !req
50. around 4:00.
Copy !req
51. Did she say
where she was going?
Copy !req
52. No. I just assumed
she'd be recruiting.
Copy !req
53. Recruiting for what?
Copy !req
54. Well, she's
the head of personnel...
Copy !req
55. for Compugame.
Copy !req
56. They manufacture
game software.
Copy !req
57. Had she received any threatening
phone calls or letters recently?
Copy !req
58. Was she having
any difficulties at work?
Copy !req
59. Anybody giving her trouble,
a hard time?
Copy !req
60. People get fired,
they blame her.
Copy !req
61. But that
just goes with the job.
Copy !req
62. Anyone in particular?
Copy !req
63. We tried
not to talk shop at home.
Copy !req
64. How did...
Copy !req
65. I mean, how did Ronnie die?
Copy !req
66. Your wife was stabbed.
Copy !req
67. I'm sorry.
Copy !req
68. What am I supposed
to tell our kids?
Copy !req
69. Is there anyone we can call?
Someone to help you?
Copy !req
70. Family's on the way.
Copy !req
71. Mr. Tandy...
Copy !req
72. were you aware
your wife was pregnant?
Copy !req
73. What?
Copy !req
74. What are you talking about?
Copy !req
75. Did our victim fight back?
Copy !req
76. Doesn't look like
she had a chance.
Copy !req
77. Why kill her
if she didn't see his face?
Copy !req
78. We're thinking it's
one guy here who's escalating?
Copy !req
79. Or someone she knew.
Copy !req
80. Head of personnel, probably
made a lot of enemies.
Copy !req
81. I would start with
whoever was fired recently.
Copy !req
82. Meanwhile, I'll get
a psych profile working.
Copy !req
83. Something else?
Copy !req
84. Why didn't she tell her
husband that she was pregnant?
Copy !req
85. She was only
seven weeks along.
Copy !req
86. Maybe she was
waiting for the best time.
Copy !req
87. Or she may have decided to
terminate, or it wasn't his.
Copy !req
88. Is your gut telling you that the
grieving husband raped his own wife...
Copy !req
89. and then brutally shived her?
Copy !req
90. No, but if she was having an
affair with somebody who decided...
Copy !req
91. they weren't interested in
continuing the relationship...
Copy !req
92. Well, let's find out if we
need to establish paternity.
Copy !req
93. I just can't believe it.
Copy !req
94. Everyone loved Ronnie.
Copy !req
95. Even people she axed?
Copy !req
96. It's not fun to get fired.
Copy !req
97. Besides, the department heads
make the final cuts.
Copy !req
98. Don't shoot the messenger,
you know.
Copy !req
99. Did anybody blame her?
You know, get loud about it?
Copy !req
100. Yes.
Who?
Copy !req
101. All of them. We've had...
Copy !req
102. five terminations
in the past three months.
Copy !req
103. Should I go back further? No.
We can work with that for now.
Copy !req
104. The husband mentioned
that the victim left at 4:00.
Copy !req
105. Do you know where she went?
Copy !req
106. No.
Copy !req
107. She said it was personal.
Copy !req
108. I'm sorry, it's just hard
to hear you call her a victim.
Copy !req
109. Did Ronnie have any good
friends here at the office?
Copy !req
110. Teresa Steele in Legal.
Copy !req
111. They have lunch
together a lot.
Copy !req
112. And Jason Mayberry in Security.
They'd meet for coffee.
Copy !req
113. Brought her flowers
and made sure she had a cab
Copy !req
114. when she worked late.
Copy !req
115. Is he working today?
Copy !req
116. He quit two weeks ago.
Copy !req
117. Do you know why?
Copy !req
118. No, you'd have to
check with his supervisor.
Copy !req
119. I don't have access
to his confidential files.
Copy !req
120. Thank you.
Thank you.
Copy !req
121. I'll talk to the woman in Legal.
I'll meet you in the lobby.
Copy !req
122. I've known
Ronnie Tandy for 15 years.
Copy !req
123. We both started here
fresh out of college.
Copy !req
124. What do you need to know?
Copy !req
125. Tell me about Jason Mayberry.
Copy !req
126. What about him?
Copy !req
127. I've been told
that they were close.
Copy !req
128. Ms. Steele, were you aware
that Mrs. Tandy was pregnant?
Copy !req
129. No.
Copy !req
130. But she wasn't having
an affair with Jason Mayberry
Copy !req
131. if that's
what you're thinking.
Copy !req
132. Well, you didn't know that
she was expecting,
Copy !req
133. so how can you be so sure?
Copy !req
134. I guess I can't.
Copy !req
135. Ronnie was a bleeding heart.
Copy !req
136. She liked to
help people get ahead.
Copy !req
137. She encouraged Jason
to go back to school...
Copy !req
138. find his niche.
Nothing wrong with that.
Copy !req
139. So why are you
insinuating otherwise?
Copy !req
140. Well, I'm just
asking questions.
Copy !req
141. Jason Mayberry sent her
flowers. They met for coffee...
Copy !req
142. She wrote
letters of recommendation,
Copy !req
143. talked to a few people
on his behalf.
Copy !req
144. I expect he felt grateful.
Copy !req
145. Recommendations for what?
Copy !req
146. To attend the Police Academy.
Copy !req
147. Jason just suddenly quit.
He was good at the job.
Copy !req
148. Took pride in it. Could've been a
supervisor in another six months.
Copy !req
149. Why did he quit?
Copy !req
150. Working security
is not exactly a glamour job
Copy !req
151. and the pay
is right at minimum.
Copy !req
152. But to guess, I'd say he quit
because he was embarrassed.
Copy !req
153. Embarrassed about what?
His mother. You know the type.
Copy !req
154. Can't cut the strings. Called
a lot. Came down here once.
Copy !req
155. Busted his chops
right in front of us.
Copy !req
156. Never could hold
his head up after that.
Copy !req
157. You can take your break. Do you
know where Jason's working now?
Copy !req
158. Nope.
Copy !req
159. Address?
Copy !req
160. Got one here in Jersey. Why?
Copy !req
161. He and Mrs. Tandy
were close friends.
Copy !req
162. He might know whether
anyone was bothering her.
Copy !req
163. I can tell you that.
Copy !req
164. Greg Spector
couldn't stand her.
Copy !req
165. He was a guard supervisor
up until a month ago.
Copy !req
166. She fire him?
Copy !req
167. Jason turned him
into Mrs. Tandy.
Copy !req
168. Accused Greg of
using the security cameras
Copy !req
169. to zoom in
on women's body parts.
Copy !req
170. You got an address for him?
Copy !req
171. He's working janitorial
at LaGuardia.
Copy !req
172. A little pet tells a lie,
and I get canned.
Copy !req
173. It was a good job,
$15 an hour.
Copy !req
174. You get in her face? You
have words? You threaten her?
Copy !req
175. I didn't threaten. I said
I wasn't going without a fight
Copy !req
176. and that she'd be sorry.
Copy !req
177. She's sorry. She's dead.
Copy !req
178. Is that true?
Where were you last night?
Copy !req
179. I was home alone.
I had nothing to do with this.
Copy !req
180. Greg, this does not
look good for you.
Copy !req
181. I'm telling you,
I didn't do it.
Copy !req
182. Ronnie came to see me
about a week ago.
Copy !req
183. About what?
My side of the story.
Copy !req
184. I was the one who caught Jason
using the security camera.
Copy !req
185. Next thing I know,
I'm fired.
Copy !req
186. So what made her call you in?
I don't know.
Copy !req
187. She said something
about getting me reinstated.
Copy !req
188. I got the impression that he
wasn't her little pet anymore.
Copy !req
189. Jason hasn't lived here
for two years.
Copy !req
190. He doesn't like it here.
It reminds him of his father.
Copy !req
191. He died
when Jason was five.
Copy !req
192. Do you have
a current address?
Copy !req
193. I am his mother.
Copy !req
194. We'll need to speak
with your son, Mrs. Mayberry.
Copy !req
195. Concerning what?
Copy !req
196. It's a police matter.
Copy !req
197. What has he done?
Copy !req
198. We just need to ask him
some routine questions.
Copy !req
199. I don't like
cryptic conversations.
Copy !req
200. They require a prevaricating
nature, which I do not possess.
Copy !req
201. So either you tell me
what this is all about...
Copy !req
202. or you can locate Jason
using whatever means...
Copy !req
203. you have at your disposal.
Copy !req
204. Do you know
what obstruction is, ma'am?
Copy !req
205. This is
a murder investigation,
Copy !req
206. and we need to
speak with your son.
Copy !req
207. Now.
Copy !req
208. Police.
Copy !req
209. Just a minute.
Copy !req
210. Yes?
Copy !req
211. I'm Det. Benson. This is
my partner, Det. Stabler.
Copy !req
212. We're working
on the Veronica Tandy murder.
Copy !req
213. Yeah, I know. I heard.
Copy !req
214. It's awful.
Do you know what happened?
Copy !req
215. Well, we'd like to
ask you a few questions.
Copy !req
216. Do you mind
if we step inside?
Copy !req
217. Well, it's a mess.
Copy !req
218. We don't mind.
Copy !req
219. I do.
Copy !req
220. Well, tell you what.
Copy !req
221. We can bring you on down to
the precinct, fill you in there.
Copy !req
222. Greg Spector.
Copy !req
223. He hated her.
Copy !req
224. We've already talked to him.
Copy !req
225. Well.
Copy !req
226. I don't really see
how I can help you then.
Copy !req
227. Jason.
Copy !req
228. We really need your help.
We're running out of leads.
Copy !req
229. Help us find this guy...
Copy !req
230. for Veronica.
Copy !req
231. Okay.
Copy !req
232. Anything for her.
Copy !req
233. This is Dr. George Huang...
Copy !req
234. psychiatrist on loan from
the FBI, setting up VICAP.
Copy !req
235. This is Det. Olivia Benson.
Copy !req
236. Nice to meet you.
How do you do?
Copy !req
237. And Elliot Stabler.
Hi.
Copy !req
238. Well, what do you got?
Copy !req
239. Well, we're thinking
Jason's our guy.
Copy !req
240. He agreed to chat with us. So we'll
sit with him, try and break him.
Copy !req
241. Det. Stabler
should do this alone.
Copy !req
242. Excuse me?
Copy !req
243. Your man
has a problem with women.
Copy !req
244. If this is your guy, he's
never going to open up to you.
Copy !req
245. All rapists
have a problem with women.
Copy !req
246. I'll sit this one out, but you're
not telling us anything new, Doctor.
Copy !req
247. The man who did this is extremely
shy and frequently excited.
Copy !req
248. He attacks women from behind
with yoking and frottage.
Copy !req
249. He graduated
to rape and murder.
Copy !req
250. Blitz attacks from behind are
acts of concealment, not shyness.
Copy !req
251. Is your man bold?
Copy !req
252. Do people notice him?
Copy !req
253. Or is he humble?
Copy !req
254. Eager to please?
Copy !req
255. Even...
Copy !req
256. shy.
Copy !req
257. I'll stick around
for the interrogation.
Copy !req
258. Well, it turns out that our suspect
applied to the Police Academy...
Copy !req
259. so we already
have psych tests.
Copy !req
260. I'll go pick up his file.
Thanks.
Copy !req
261. Elliot pulls anything needs
checking, we'll call you.
Copy !req
262. All right.
Copy !req
263. No disrespect intended,
but Dr. Huang just got here.
Copy !req
264. Do you believe Jason
is your perp? Yes, I do.
Copy !req
265. Okay.
Copy !req
266. We're not going to convict him
on your gut, Elliot.
Copy !req
267. We don't have any hard evidence,
so we're going to need a confession.
Copy !req
268. I suggest you
make this suspect your friend,
Copy !req
269. because he can walk
whenever he wants.
Copy !req
270. How's your coffee?
Copy !req
271. It's pretty bad. Coffee's
always bad in the precinct.
Copy !req
272. You wanna be a cop, you're
gonna have to get used to it.
Copy !req
273. How did you know about that?
Copy !req
274. Pretty small company, Jason.
Copy !req
275. People talk about comers.
Copy !req
276. "Comers?"
Copy !req
277. Guys on the fast track,
going places, doing things.
Copy !req
278. You got a rabbi, you're
on your way. That's what...
Copy !req
279. us cops call...
Copy !req
280. a guardian angel that oversees
career moves on the force.
Copy !req
281. A rabbi. Did you know that?
Copy !req
282. No.
Copy !req
283. So when do you start the Academy?
They haven't called me yet.
Copy !req
284. There's gotta be
a snag in there.
Copy !req
285. Tell you what, I'm gonna
look into it for you.
Copy !req
286. Where are you working in the
meantime? Fortress Armored Cars.
Copy !req
287. Just short term
till I get the call.
Copy !req
288. Good job. Pay well?
Copy !req
289. No, not during training.
Copy !req
290. So why'd you
quit your last job?
Copy !req
291. I heard you were
up for shift supervisor.
Copy !req
292. Yeah. Well,
I don't need to work so...
Copy !req
293. Can't feel very good
having Mommy pay the bills.
Copy !req
294. She does not pay my bills.
Copy !req
295. I have a trust.
Copy !req
296. Why work at all?
Copy !req
297. To have somewhere to go.
Copy !req
298. To take pride in something.
Copy !req
299. Why quit where everyone
respected you...
Copy !req
300. and recognized
your work ethic?
Copy !req
301. I'd really rather not say.
Copy !req
302. Okay.
Copy !req
303. Maybe you quit
before they could fire you?
Copy !req
304. They find out
something about you?
Copy !req
305. Catch you, you know, stealing?
Or sleeping on the job?
Copy !req
306. Maybe use the security cameras
to zoom in on women's breasts?
Copy !req
307. Is that your thing, Jason?
Or are you an ass man?
Copy !req
308. No.
Copy !req
309. I never did that.
Copy !req
310. That was Greg Spector.
Copy !req
311. So why did you quit?
Copy !req
312. Well, I was... Okay.
Copy !req
313. I was being sexually harassed.
Copy !req
314. I liked her. I just didn't
want to get her in any trouble.
Copy !req
315. So I couldn't
work there anymore.
Copy !req
316. Sexually harassed by who?
Copy !req
317. Veronica Tandy.
Copy !req
318. Det. Benson.
Copy !req
319. Our camcorder broke.
Copy !req
320. Mr. Tandy, I'm sorry... Our
camcorder broke three months ago.
Copy !req
321. My wife bought me a new one.
Copy !req
322. Big surprise came today.
Copy !req
323. I know you're upset...
No, you've been digging.
Copy !req
324. You've been dirtying
my murdered wife's name.
Copy !req
325. We have to follow leads.
Copy !req
326. Read the card, Detective.
Copy !req
327. Mr. Tandy I had to do my...
Just read it!
Copy !req
328. "For baby Tandy number four.
Shoot till you drop.
Copy !req
329. "Love, Ronnie. "
Copy !req
330. She bought the camera...
Copy !req
331. for our new baby.
Copy !req
332. Wasn't having an affair.
Copy !req
333. You satisfied now?
Copy !req
334. Mayberry passed the written,
just barely passed the physical.
Copy !req
335. Not exactly buff but, hell,
we need the bodies.
Copy !req
336. Did he pass the psych exam?
No, not even close.
Copy !req
337. Profile skewed towards
aggression during stress.
Copy !req
338. I thought that was normal.
Not at those levels.
Copy !req
339. We have plenty of cops
on the street
Copy !req
340. with excessive force
complaints in their files.
Copy !req
341. Even psychos know how
to pass the psych exam.
Copy !req
342. Which was why we figured this guy
must be a real secret squirrel.
Copy !req
343. Look, why is...
Copy !req
344. Why are there two letters of
recommendation from Veronica Tandy?
Copy !req
345. One's a glowing review.
One's a rescind letter.
Copy !req
346. She pulled her support?
Copy !req
347. Do you know why?
Copy !req
348. I called to ask her before
the psych report came back.
Copy !req
349. She never returned my call.
Copy !req
350. I don't think
I'm helping you at all,
Copy !req
351. and I'm getting
kind of tired so...
Copy !req
352. Jason, trust me.
You're being very helpful.
Copy !req
353. What we're doing here
is called victimology.
Copy !req
354. Ascertaining character and
personality traits of the victim.
Copy !req
355. Determine how and why
they were chosen.
Copy !req
356. Listen to this guy.
You sound like a cop already.
Copy !req
357. Now, you said that
the victim harassed you.
Copy !req
358. And why didn't you
turn her in?
Copy !req
359. She would've lost her job.
Copy !req
360. She has a family.
Had.
Copy !req
361. Jason, she only exists in the
memories of people who love her.
Copy !req
362. They didn't know her.
Copy !req
363. This comes out, it'll hurt them. Jason.
Copy !req
364. What we discuss in this room
does not leave here.
Copy !req
365. Now you sure you didn't
encourage her in some way?
Copy !req
366. You sent her flowers.
Copy !req
367. The two of you
met for coffee.
Copy !req
368. Yes, after she
did me a favor.
Copy !req
369. She was always
doing me favors.
Copy !req
370. I thought that was just
the way she was with everyone.
Copy !req
371. But it wasn't true.
Copy !req
372. She was hung up on me.
Copy !req
373. She called me at home.
Copy !req
374. She dropped by unannounced.
Copy !req
375. She's a beautiful woman.
Weren't you flattered?
Copy !req
376. Yeah, sure. At first I was.
Copy !req
377. But Ronnie
was married with kids.
Copy !req
378. You disapproved of her.
Copy !req
379. Married people have no right,
no business fooling around.
Copy !req
380. You let her run you
out of the company.
Copy !req
381. She made you
leave your good job.
Copy !req
382. Why would you do that?
What else was I gonna do?
Copy !req
383. She imagined this relationship
that did not exist.
Copy !req
384. And she lied a lot.
Copy !req
385. That must've made you mad. Yeah,
you just don't know how much.
Copy !req
386. Look, I sent her thank you
flowers. It's a come on.
Copy !req
387. I hailed her a cab, she's asking
me to have drinks with her.
Copy !req
388. You know, she's pregnant. She
shouldn't have been drinking.
Copy !req
389. How'd you know
she was pregnant?
Copy !req
390. She told me.
Copy !req
391. She told you
but not her husband?
Copy !req
392. She didn't tell anybody else
but you. Is that it?
Copy !req
393. So what? We were close.
Copy !req
394. When did she tell you?
Copy !req
395. I don't remember exactly when.
Copy !req
396. Take a second.
Copy !req
397. How about a search warrant,
Counselor?
Copy !req
398. Based on what? Your gut
or Dr. Huang's supposition?
Copy !req
399. Well, what do you suggest? Because
he's about ready to walk out that door.
Copy !req
400. Let him walk.
What did you just say?
Copy !req
401. Let him walk. That bastard
knew she was pregnant...
Copy !req
402. and he killed her anyway. He
is not going out of my sight.
Copy !req
403. You can't force him to stay,
Detective.
Copy !req
404. It becomes a custodial issue,
and anything he says...
Copy !req
405. without a Miranda warning
is inadmissible.
Copy !req
406. You're tying our hands.
Copy !req
407. Then even the playing field.
Copy !req
408. How?
He hates women.
Copy !req
409. Get on his level,
the nastier the better.
Copy !req
410. Won't that make him
suspicious? Probably.
Copy !req
411. But he wants to talk.
Copy !req
412. He was in charge
when he killed the victim.
Copy !req
413. But how will anybody know his
power unless he reveals it?
Copy !req
414. Bad news?
Copy !req
415. You wouldn't believe it
if I told you.
Copy !req
416. Stupid, stone-crunching slut.
Copy !req
417. Who?
Copy !req
418. My wife.
Copy !req
419. How long you been married?
Copy !req
420. Sixteen year sentence.
Copy !req
421. Sixteen long, dry years.
Copy !req
422. Any kids?
Too many.
Copy !req
423. Creditor just called.
I'm in hock up to my ass.
Copy !req
424. My wife shops, and if I
take away her credit cards...
Copy !req
425. she don't give me any.
Copy !req
426. Let me guess...
Copy !req
427. your oldest child is 16.
Copy !req
428. How did you know that?
Copy !req
429. You're a cliché, Detective.
Copy !req
430. A responsible guy.
Copy !req
431. Good man
gets caught out there.
Copy !req
432. Woman is just
looking for a free ride.
Copy !req
433. Your only refuge is the job.
Copy !req
434. It's the only
peace you have.
Copy !req
435. I love my job.
Why wouldn't you?
Copy !req
436. You get to catch the bad guys
and put them away.
Copy !req
437. But the best part
is the why...
Copy !req
438. understanding the motive.
Copy !req
439. There's usually a reason.
An innocent victim...
Copy !req
440. very rare.
Copy !req
441. Do you really
think that's true?
Copy !req
442. I've been doing this a long
time, Jason. I know it's true.
Copy !req
443. The women victims,
for the most part...
Copy !req
444. were asking for it.
Copy !req
445. They take our manhood.
Copy !req
446. They suck us dry.
They mess with our heads.
Copy !req
447. And then they're surprised
when we fight back.
Copy !req
448. Do you think that Veronica
was asking for it?
Copy !req
449. Is that her victimology?
Copy !req
450. You knew her. You tell me.
Copy !req
451. She was...
Copy !req
452. She was a bitch.
Copy !req
453. What did she do to you?
Copy !req
454. I told you.
Copy !req
455. No, I know there's more.
I can see.
Copy !req
456. I see it in your eyes.
She hurt you badly.
Copy !req
457. What did she do to you,
Jason?
Copy !req
458. She took my dream.
Copy !req
459. She wrote a letter to the
Academy saying that I wasn't fit.
Copy !req
460. She wanted me to meet her out in
front of some department store.
Copy !req
461. She told me that if I slept
with her, she could fix it.
Copy !req
462. We made out.
Copy !req
463. But I couldn't do it.
Copy !req
464. I like her husband.
He's a nice guy.
Copy !req
465. Which department store?
Copy !req
466. Crazy Bob's on Lexington.
Copy !req
467. They sell electronics.
Copy !req
468. Mayberry's
only been here two weeks.
Copy !req
469. And now he's going
into the Police Academy.
Copy !req
470. Training alone takes a month.
He should've told you that.
Copy !req
471. He a good employee?
I suppose.
Copy !req
472. A little Chatty Kathy
about his girlfriend...
Copy !req
473. but he's usually here on time,
and that's all I care about.
Copy !req
474. This girlfriend
have a name?
Copy !req
475. You ask me, the woman in the
photographs doesn't even know he exists.
Copy !req
476. What do you mean?
Copy !req
477. Thanks.
I'll show you.
Copy !req
478. Why no doors?
They got something to hide...
Copy !req
479. they can leave it at home.
Here it is.
Copy !req
480. Go get that search warrant,
Counselor.
Copy !req
481. The perps got photos of
our victim, Veronica Tandy.
Copy !req
482. Hey, guys,
what have we got so far?
Copy !req
483. Well, aside from this guy's
cop fixation, not much.
Copy !req
484. Okay.
Copy !req
485. So let me guess, no trophies,
no 8-inch serrated Rambo knife?
Copy !req
486. No. We just got here.
Copy !req
487. Well, I'll be damned.
Yeah.
Copy !req
488. Looks like Jason
wears a condom every day.
Copy !req
489. No one said anything about
a roommate. Whose are these?
Copy !req
490. Maybe a girlfriend,
or he's a cross-dresser.
Copy !req
491. Monogram says
they belong to a GM.
Copy !req
492. Look, dirty laundry...
Copy !req
493. including women's panties.
Copy !req
494. Detective.
Copy !req
495. Where did you find those? On
top of that cabinet right there.
Copy !req
496. Look. Looks like a bunch of bloody
hatpins with locations attached.
Copy !req
497. Okay. Make out a list
and call them into Cragen.
Copy !req
498. Why?
Copy !req
499. Because our suspect
used these to practice.
Copy !req
500. Also, I need you to walk
those panties through the lab.
Copy !req
501. I'm on it.
Rush the DNA.
Copy !req
502. Up to what level?
Mitochondrial.
Copy !req
503. Been holding out on me.
Copy !req
504. No, I'm not.
Copy !req
505. You've been holding out on me,
and I don't like it.
Copy !req
506. I don't like being played. Now,
I have treated you like a man.
Copy !req
507. I have respected you. And you've
been treating me like some bitch.
Copy !req
508. No. I would never do that.
You have and you still are.
Copy !req
509. Now...
Copy !req
510. women should be lied to. They don't
understand men. They never will.
Copy !req
511. I know you've
been lying to me.
Copy !req
512. And it's going to
stop right now.
Copy !req
513. I want to go home.
"I want to go home. "
Copy !req
514. We found the pictures,
you know that?
Copy !req
515. What pictures?
Sad...
Copy !req
516. desperate photos
of Veronica Tandy
Copy !req
517. that you had
taped in your locker.
Copy !req
518. Now, you told everyone
she was your girlfriend?
Copy !req
519. She was my girlfriend.
I thought she harassed you...
Copy !req
520. tried to force you
into her bed.
Copy !req
521. Now all of a sudden
she's your girlfriend? Huh?
Copy !req
522. You wouldn't know what to do
with a woman if you paid her.
Copy !req
523. Now you're insulting me. I
don't have to take this from you.
Copy !req
524. You do. You expect me to believe
this beautiful woman chose you...
Copy !req
525. cheated on her husband,
had a passion for you?
Copy !req
526. What?
Copy !req
527. What's the matter?
I'm leaving.
Copy !req
528. Go ahead. I can't stop you.
Copy !req
529. You walk out, you look guilty.
Everyone is gonna think that you did it.
Copy !req
530. And your big-time
socialite mom.
Copy !req
531. Now what do you do think the
press is gonna do with that?
Copy !req
532. They're gonna hound you. They're
gonna follow you everywhere you go.
Copy !req
533. Now is that what you want?
Go ahead. Bye-bye.
Copy !req
534. I loved her.
Copy !req
535. Ronnie was gonna leave...
Copy !req
536. that pitiful excuse for a man
to be with me.
Copy !req
537. But then she couldn't
because she got pregnant.
Copy !req
538. That baby could be mine.
That baby is dead.
Copy !req
539. Mother's dead, baby's dead.
You killed them both.
Copy !req
540. You're just making this up because you
have to blame someone. It wasn't me.
Copy !req
541. You yoked her!
You raped her!
Copy !req
542. And when she pleaded for her life
and that of her unborn child...
Copy !req
543. you stuck your knife into
her back to make her shut up.
Copy !req
544. That's what really happened,
Jason. Just admit it.
Copy !req
545. No! I did not kill her!
Copy !req
546. Yeah, you did.
No.
Copy !req
547. It was someone else, not me.
Copy !req
548. I want a lawyer.
Copy !req
549. Jason, I'm willing to hear
your side of the story.
Copy !req
550. But you bring a lawyer
into the situation...
Copy !req
551. it's just gonna
screw it all up.
Copy !req
552. They don't help it.
They just make it worse.
Copy !req
553. I'm going home. Fine. You
feel more comfortable there...
Copy !req
554. I'll finish up at your place.
That's fine. I'll go with you.
Copy !req
555. Why can't you leave me alone?
Copy !req
556. Huh?
Copy !req
557. Jason, we're almost done.
Copy !req
558. Just answer my questions,
tell me the truth...
Copy !req
559. and you can leave.
Copy !req
560. Excuse me.
Copy !req
561. Do I need
to call the police?
Copy !req
562. I'm already here.
Copy !req
563. And what do you want?
Copy !req
564. Is that your blouse?
Copy !req
565. Yes.
Copy !req
566. Yes, it is. Have you
searched Jason's apartment?
Copy !req
567. Yes, ma'am.
Is he a suspect?
Copy !req
568. Do you live with him?
Copy !req
569. My son is a lot of things,
but he's not a murderer.
Copy !req
570. Is he under arrest?
Copy !req
571. No. Why do you leave your
clothing at his apartment?
Copy !req
572. I told you.
Copy !req
573. Jason doesn't like it here.
Copy !req
574. So if I want to see him,
I have to go into the city.
Copy !req
575. We have dinner, sometimes
we go to the theater.
Copy !req
576. And after that it is too late
for me to drive home...
Copy !req
577. so sometimes
I spend the night.
Copy !req
578. All of which
is none of your business.
Copy !req
579. It's an awfully small apartment
for overnight guests, Mrs. Mayberry.
Copy !req
580. Where do you sleep?
Copy !req
581. There was only a Murphy bed,
and I didn't see a cot.
Copy !req
582. Why not a hotel?
Copy !req
583. Well, why stay at all?
It's not that long of a drive.
Copy !req
584. It's over an hour.
Copy !req
585. What the hell did you
do to your son?
Copy !req
586. I don't like your question,
and I don't like your tone.
Copy !req
587. Please leave.
Copy !req
588. How many attacks?
Copy !req
589. I've got six pins here with
corresponding complainants...
Copy !req
590. at locations around the city.
Copy !req
591. I'll bet there may have been
more that weren't reported.
Copy !req
592. He may have re-used the pins
as he built the fantasy.
Copy !req
593. Piquerism.
Copy !req
594. The murder was piqueristic,
and I just didn't see it.
Copy !req
595. He derives excitement
from stabbing women's flesh.
Copy !req
596. Six victims walking in a crowd,
suddenly attacked from behind...
Copy !req
597. and stuck with hatpins
in the buttocks and back.
Copy !req
598. And not one
could ID her attacker.
Copy !req
599. It fits his profile.
Copy !req
600. What about Norfolk and Houston? You
stuck a woman in the back with a pin...
Copy !req
601. missed her spine by an inch.
Copy !req
602. I want to go home.
Copy !req
603. You can't keep me here.
Copy !req
604. Don't you want to know how I
know this? Aren't you curious?
Copy !req
605. No. We've been inside your apartment.
Copy !req
606. We found the hatpins.
Copy !req
607. Avenue A and Second Street...
Copy !req
608. I know you
remember this blonde.
Copy !req
609. Broad daylight, you snuck up behind
her, and you stuck her pretty good.
Copy !req
610. Jason...
Copy !req
611. how long has your mother
been sleeping with you?
Copy !req
612. What are you talking about?
Copy !req
613. That's crazy.
Jason, listen to me.
Copy !req
614. She had no right
to touch you like that.
Copy !req
615. She had no right to abuse you.
Copy !req
616. You're crazy.
Copy !req
617. You know that.
You're all...
Copy !req
618. You're all crazy.
Copy !req
619. Hey! Hey!
Copy !req
620. Is that what happens
to all you people here?
Copy !req
621. The sex police.
Sex on the brain.
Copy !req
622. Well, my mother
never touched me like that.
Copy !req
623. You were six years old
and still sleeping with Mommy.
Copy !req
624. What'd she say to you,
Jason?
Copy !req
625. You have nightmares
so you should sleep with her?
Copy !req
626. Keep the monsters away?
Copy !req
627. Can we stop?
Copy !req
628. Can we stop now? And at 10
she'd let you sleep alone.
Copy !req
629. She'd
come to you at night...
Copy !req
630. telling you, you were
the man of the house.
Copy !req
631. Why don't you
just shut the hell up?
Copy !req
632. She initiated you into
sexual experience in puberty.
Copy !req
633. Jason?
Copy !req
634. You were scared
because you knew it was wrong.
Copy !req
635. You were still a boy,
Jason.
Copy !req
636. You were confused,
disgusted...
Copy !req
637. abused.
Copy !req
638. Jason,
it wasn't your fault.
Copy !req
639. Yes.
Copy !req
640. Yes.
Copy !req
641. Yes, it was.
Copy !req
642. I'm...
Copy !req
643. I'm a dirty little boy.
Copy !req
644. I can't keep my hands
to myself.
Copy !req
645. You lying boy.
Copy !req
646. Don't look. Look.
Copy !req
647. Don't touch. Touch me.
Copy !req
648. Go away.
Copy !req
649. No, come here and hold me.
Copy !req
650. Baby, doesn't that
feel so good?
Copy !req
651. You're a good little boy.
Copy !req
652. Shh.
Copy !req
653. What are the charges?
Right now, murder and rape.
Copy !req
654. Was he Mirandized? Counselor,
nobody here is stupid.
Copy !req
655. Jason.
Copy !req
656. What have you done?
Copy !req
657. Do you realize
what this will do to me?
Copy !req
658. What have you
been saying about me?
Copy !req
659. You lied through your teeth,
didn't you?
Copy !req
660. You always lie.
Copy !req
661. You're a filthy, lying
bastard. That's enough, Grace.
Copy !req
662. Keep your mouth shut. I'll get
you out of here in no time.
Copy !req
663. People versus
Jason Thaddeus Mayberry.
Copy !req
664. One count,
murder in the first degree.
Copy !req
665. One count,
rape in the first degree.
Copy !req
666. Six counts of assault
in the second.
Copy !req
667. How do you plead?
Not guilty, Your Honor.
Copy !req
668. Ms. Cabot?
Remand, Your Honor.
Copy !req
669. The Mayberry's are an old,
upstanding family in New Jersey.
Copy !req
670. My client
is not a flight risk.
Copy !req
671. His mother, Grace Mayberry,
will produce him for trial.
Copy !req
672. Because of his trust, as
well as his mother's wealth...
Copy !req
673. he has means
and opportunity to flee.
Copy !req
674. The defendant is charged
with heinous crimes.
Copy !req
675. The murder victim was 7
weeks pregnant... Objection!
Copy !req
676. That was a nice try,
Counselor.
Copy !req
677. Don't do it again.
Copy !req
678. My apologies.
Copy !req
679. Bail is set at $1 million.
Copy !req
680. Post or enjoy my hospitality.
Copy !req
681. No deal.
I'm not looking for one.
Copy !req
682. My client isn't guilty. Your
client belongs in a pine box...
Copy !req
683. but I will settle
for an 8-by-10 cell
Copy !req
684. where he can rot
until he dies.
Copy !req
685. Don't get ahead of yourself,
Ms. Cabot.
Copy !req
686. I have got his un-coerced
and legal confession.
Copy !req
687. I have got bloody hatpins
from his piqueristic attacks.
Copy !req
688. I've got a homicide victim
who was known...
Copy !req
689. to the defendant
and his motive for killing.
Copy !req
690. I don't know if that's
overconfidence or hubris.
Copy !req
691. That was so much fun, I thought
we'd do it again. See you in court.
Copy !req
692. The hatpins weren't in the
scope of the search warrant.
Copy !req
693. They were in plain
view, Your Honor. Hardly.
Copy !req
694. The box was kept
on a high cabinet.
Copy !req
695. Or will the People try to tell me
that someone in the search team...
Copy !req
696. was 7 feet tall?
Copy !req
697. They were
looking for a knife.
Copy !req
698. And instead they found bloody
hatpins used in piquerist attacks.
Copy !req
699. Six victims, six hatpins, all
labeled with corresponding locations.
Copy !req
700. If the police search for a gun and
find a bloody knife with hair...
Copy !req
701. I'm certainly
not going to throw it out.
Copy !req
702. Hatpins remain in evidence.
Next item.
Copy !req
703. Constitutional violation.
Copy !req
704. My client asked for a lawyer
and was denied access.
Copy !req
705. The defendant was not
under arrest at the time.
Copy !req
706. There was no custodial issue.
Copy !req
707. I submit he was in custody...
Copy !req
708. from the moment he was asked to
accompany the officers to their precinct.
Copy !req
709. The suspect was free to go at any time
prior to the discovery of evidence...
Copy !req
710. in his apartment.
Come on, Counselor.
Copy !req
711. The police are notorious for
their intimidation tactics.
Copy !req
712. He asked for a lawyer.
He didn't get one.
Copy !req
713. Did the suspect
ask for counsel, Ms. Cabot?
Copy !req
714. Yes.
Copy !req
715. But then he wanted to
continue without one.
Copy !req
716. Did he want to continue,
or was he threatened?
Copy !req
717. Your Honor, I take...
Sorry, Counselor.
Copy !req
718. Although I'd like to agree
with you concerning custody...
Copy !req
719. I'm on a slippery slope, and I'd
rather err on the side of caution.
Copy !req
720. The confession is out.
Copy !req
721. He wasn't under arrest.
Copy !req
722. I specifically cautioned you
about the custodial issue.
Copy !req
723. No, you said that he was to
be free to go at any time.
Copy !req
724. My detective
persuaded him otherwise.
Copy !req
725. He did a hell of a job
getting that confession.
Copy !req
726. Whose side you on?
Mine.
Copy !req
727. You know the trial closure rate for
sex crimes cases is four percent.
Copy !req
728. Four percent.
Copy !req
729. There are a lot of factors
responsible for that but I never...
Copy !req
730. I did my job, Counselor. Don't
blame me if you didn't do yours.
Copy !req
731. I stayed in that room
and pushed him to the edge.
Copy !req
732. You lost him
on a technicality.
Copy !req
733. All right.
That's enough, both of you.
Copy !req
734. Do we know where he is? He's
in New Jersey with his mother.
Copy !req
735. I notified the locals. They
said they'd do their best.
Copy !req
736. That's reassuring.
So what do we do
Copy !req
737. to catch this hump
before he strikes again?
Copy !req
738. Can you reconstruct his
movements after the attacks?
Copy !req
739. Well,
what are we looking for?
Copy !req
740. I think he went home to his
mother after each attack.
Copy !req
741. He felt compelled
to go to the source.
Copy !req
742. Mother created a loving
husband in her baby son.
Copy !req
743. It all starts
and ends with her.
Copy !req
744. You think
the murder weapon's there?
Copy !req
745. It's a possibility.
Copy !req
746. It's gotta be somewhere.
He didn't just throw it away.
Copy !req
747. Well, we can't go on a digging
expedition based on possibility.
Copy !req
748. He suffers from piquerism,
Counselor.
Copy !req
749. That knife
represents his penis.
Copy !req
750. It is not disposable.
Copy !req
751. I've shown you all my cards,
Malcolm. What's it going to be?
Copy !req
752. No judge is going to sign a warrant
based on what you've got, Alex.
Copy !req
753. Credit card receipts from area stores
and witness statements which put him...
Copy !req
754. in his mother's house
after each attack.
Copy !req
755. What more could you
possibly need?
Copy !req
756. That isn't enough to prove that he stashed
a murder weapon in his mother's home.
Copy !req
757. What has to happen before you get off
your collective asses and do your jobs?
Copy !req
758. Look, I know you're upset, Detective,
but the law doesn't allow...
Copy !req
759. Just tell me
what you need?
Copy !req
760. You need a New Jersey victim
to do something?
Copy !req
761. He admitted to everything.
Detective!
Copy !req
762. We got his confession on tape.
We just couldn't hold him.
Copy !req
763. You don't make a lot of
friends, do you? Yeah, well...
Copy !req
764. Look...
Copy !req
765. Grace Mayberry created the man
who did this.
Copy !req
766. By warping his mind she
destroyed his female victims...
Copy !req
767. as if she'd
wielded the knife herself.
Copy !req
768. We got one long shot.
Copy !req
769. Judge Chandler's a real friend
of the fraternal order.
Copy !req
770. He might let us squeak by.
Copy !req
771. Hello?
Copy !req
772. Mrs. Mayberry?
Copy !req
773. I told her...
Copy !req
774. I'm not a little boy anymore.
Copy !req
