A trucker driving by saw the body,

called it in.

Easy to miss.

The coroner's tied up on a multiple
in Pahrump, but they're en route.

Officer Jensen was first responding.

When he saw the condition of the body,

he backed out of the scene,
stepping in his own footprints.

Anyway, we've been beating the bush looking
for her personal effects, but so far nothing.

Jane Doe it is.

You must be Keppler.

- Willows?
- Catherine.

Sorry I'm late. Got stuck on the Strip.

Welcome to Las Vegas.

Is that how they're doing
things in Baltimore these days?

Out here, we don't touch the body
until the coroner releases it.

Sorry. Just...

trying to get a better look at her face.

There's bruising around
the neck, relatively fresh.

No other obvious wounds on the body.

This girl's barely out of high school.

Catnip.

Excuse me?

The way they attract men at that age;

it's like catnip.

That's a terrifying thought.

You have kids?

A daughter,15.

You must be a hit on career day.

I try not to bring my work home with me.

How about you?

What?

Any kids?

Patchy discolorations on the
skin. Looks like dehydration.

White fibers.

I'm guessing cotton.

Looks like she's been swabbed down
with something that evaporated,

maybe alcohol.

Unlike most men,

this one knows how to
clean up after himself.

So how long is this fellow
Keppler supposed to be with us?

Well, he was hired to staff
the new day shift, but...

since we're one shy with Grissom away,

Ecklie wanted us to break
him in for a few weeks.

Got a broken fingernail.

Please tell me she got
a piece of her attacker.

If the nail had been torn
off, the break would be smooth.

It's jagged; she's a biter.

So flash this photo
around the Alphabets.

If she's a pro or a local,

somebody will recognize her.

Alphabets?

Yeah, it's a neighborhood.

You know, A Street, B Street,D Street.

A through F
is pretty bad-

homeless, junkies, scumbags,

the hookers we chase off the Strip.

I mean, if you're down and out in Vegas,
sooner or later, you're gonna end up here.

Hear you got one of the fastest
growing murder rates in the country.

Yeah, we're very competitive.

Is that a Philly accent I hear?

Trenton, born and bred.

My condolences. I'm from Newark.

- How you doing?
- How are you?

Thought I heard something familiar.

But you got to love Vegas,
isn't that right,Catherine?

My hometown.

I mean, the pizza's terrible,
but everything else is paradise.

So I see you've got the soil
and vegetation exemplars.

Three distinct locations.

Not that it's gonna
make much difference.

I get the feeling our guy's not the type

to track away dirt on his shoes.

Probably not.

Our best bet's the body.

Which we're probably not
gonna get much from, either.

So is the pizza really that bad?

I like it.

No obvious traces of semen?

No visible skin under the fingernails,

so she probably didn't fight back.

There were no defensive
wounds on her forearms,

no ligature marks on
her wrists or ankles.

Maybe he didn't want to mark her up.

I mean, look at her.

So young.

Innocent.

He wanted to take his time.

He drugged her.

We should expand tox

to include volatiles
and sedative hypnotics.

You got something?

Highlights and lowlights.

That's a hair process that isn't cheap.

Nominal hair growth

is roughly
half-a-millimeter a day.

And based on the length of
her roots, it's been about

two months since she's had it done.

Not the kind of girl who
goes missing without a report.

Your vic's name is
Veronica Sorensen, age 17.

Last reported in Victorville.

About two months ago?

- She's a...
- Runaway?

Yeah. Parents reported her missing.

P.D.'s already made the notifications.

So, what's the verdict
on this Keppler guy?

What? You're usually pretty
quick to size people up.

Jury's still out,

but he knows what he's doing.

In other news, local Las Vegas
police officers are still trying

to identify the body of a
nude woman found off Highway 51

early yesterday morning.

I'm Detective Curtis.

I'm... so sorry for your loss.

That girl on the TV,
that is not my Veronica.

They wouldn't call us
if they weren't sure.

We were able to match her fingerprints.

Then you've made a mistake.

The prints that we gave to the police,

they were from a school safe kit.

She was ten years old.

They could've changed, right?

Fingerprints don't change.

There was a tattoo

on her right
ankle- an iguana.

We just want to take her home.

Of course.

As soon as we've completed the autopsy.

No, you're not gonna cut her open.

Sir, this is a homicide.

We're not giving our permission.

I'm afraid you don't have a choice.

But I promise you, we'll treat
her with the utmost respect.

And what can I do for you?

Let me know when you release the body.

It's going to be a while.

I haven't even opened her up yet.

Well, just let me know.

And stop whistling.

C.O.D. was asphyxiation
due to strangulation,

but it wasn't quick.

The overlapping patterns
of fours and ones

suggest multiple events.

I imaged subcutaneous bruises under UV

from several positions
around the throat.

Killer choked and released
at least three times.

That's consistent with
sexual asphyxiation.

S.A.E. is about what you'd expect.

Vaginal trauma, no semen,

but traces of spermicide.

Guy used a condom.

What about tox?

Well, blood was positive for MDMA.

Ecstasy.

- That's it?
- Yep.

I can't believe that she was compliant.

Thanks, Doc.

You got it.

You ever see a cat playing with a mouse?

Point isn't to kill the mouse,
just keep the game going.

I'm guessing you've got cats.

No. I just like the metaphor.

Same game every time.

Cat goes home, leaves
its kill on the doorstep.

Our guy's done this before.

I'm with you there.

What got our cat's attention this time?

Around puberty, most guys
fixate on a particular body type

that turns them on.

Tall, skinny, short, red hair.

Whatever floats your boat.

It's imprinted.

Hard to let go of.

So we know what his type is

and we know what he
likes to do with them.

Okay, we've got three that fit the type.

The cases were years apart.

1999,1989...

and 1975.

Let's bring up their photographs.

Look at the similarity
in the body positions.

They look posed,

almost as if they were...

waving goodbye.

Jane Doe '99 was discovered naked
in a stretch of dirt off Paradise

behind the old Hotel Continental.

Based on the photos,

her hair was matted with dirt,
which suggests that it was wet

when she was dumped.

It's likely that her body was washed.

That's consistent
with the latest victim.

Any traces of alcohol or cotton swabs?

There's nothing indicated,

but there's almost nothing in this file.

Based on T.O.D.,

the body was found less
than four hours after death.

Yet other than a general canvass,

not a single person was interviewed.

The homicide detective's
summary is less than a page.

Sounds like shoddy police work.

Sounds like no police work.

After the autopsy, C.O.D. confirmed
asphyxiation by strangulation.

There was absolutely
no follow-up whatsoever.

Well, there was a follow-up
in spades on Jane Doe '89.

She was found in a vacant lot off
28th Street near Bould Highway.

Uh, stripped of her clothing.

Like the others, several
peri-mortem bruises,

but check out this hair.

Yeah, it's crimped.

I remember those days.

There's no way that
style survives a shower.

Killer didn't wash that one down.

Methods evolve.

Practice makes perfect.

Again, the cops didn't come
up with a single suspect.

There were detailed
sketches of the crime scene,

microscopy on errant hairs and fibers,

even ran the vic's prints through WIN.

'89... that database was
barely on the Internet.

The guy that worked on
this case was very thorough.

He just didn't close it.

Okay, Jane Doe '75.

Well... she was found in an alley
off of Bridger near Fremont Street.

Based on the level of decomp,

she'd been lying there about two days

before they found her.

Only thing about this one
is, she had her clothes on.

Might have been his first.

Or maybe the first one found.

Isolated contusions on her
neck, arms and shoulders.

C.O.D. listed

as heroin overdose.

Junkies do bruise easily.

And the "waving
good-bye" hand position is

a natural way to fall.

It's possible that this
one is a coincidence.

It's not.

How do you know?

Because I do.

This guy pays attention to the details.

Knows what he likes,
he doesn't mix it up.

Thing that gets me is
the discipline, though.

He's got a habit, but he
seems to be able to control it.

Only needs to kill once
every ten years or so,

and when he does, he's got a type.

Pretty but not pricey.

And not likely to be missed.

You're a CSI, not a profiler.

- What's the difference?
- Evidence.

I want leads and IDs.

Follow up on what you've got.

When I left this place,
it was all grey walls

and cinder blocks.

Very fancy.

What made you transfer to Henderson?

Cost of living, better commute.

I socked away a few bucks,

bought a nice place in Green Valley.

Ah, I take it you're a
shortcuts kind of guy.

I guess you could say that.

I like to get to the
heart of things right away.

Any reason that you didn't
get to the heart of this?

October 17,1999.

You remember the date?

Why is that?

Hey, I'm not sure I like your tone.

Answer the question, Detective.

It's my son's birthday.

Day I caught the case,
my wife went into labor.

It was rough. There were complications.

Anyway, I was out for weeks taking care
of her. Used up all my vacation time.

When I got back, there were
a half dozen cases on my desk.

My captain told me to let it go.

Look.

We canvassed the neighborhood.

No name.

She was homeless,
hooking for drug money.

You do not know that.

You didn't even ask for tox.

We didn't need to do a test.

We found her at Paradise and Flamingo.

What else would she be doing there?

Okay, here we are.

Autopsy samples for Doe, Jane. 99-103.

Uh, most recent vic had
traces of E in her system.

If this one does, too,
there might be a connection.

To a drug dealer from ten years ago?

That's kind of weak.

Weak is the best that we have right now.

Hodges ran the
formalin-fixed tissue sample

from Jane Doe '99 through GCMS.

There's no traces of Ecstasy,

but he did find chloral hydrate.

Chloral hydrate is a hypnotic sedative.

There were no traces of anything
like that found in Veronica Sorensen.

Which means if our guy
still sedates his victims

before sexually asphyxiating them,

whatever he's using now
isn't leaving a trace.

- Warrick Brown.
- Mike Keppler.

I know...

You trying to do a geographic
profile of your serial?

Yeah, most of these guys tend
to operate out of one place.

In theory, as the killer gets more
and more comfortable with each act,

the locations of the
bodies should spiral outward

from one central point.

I tell you one thing that your
dump sites do have in common.

What's that?

When the bodies were found, the
location that they were found in

at the time had the highest
crime rate in the city.

Smart.

The crime center sure seems to move
around pretty quickly here, huh?

Well, in Vegas,

new is old in five years,
old is history in ten,

and nothing ever seems to leave a mark.

Sounds refreshing.

'89 Jane Doe, this was your case.

One of the first
homicides I ever worked.

Damn, I had good handwriting.

Excuse me.

Come on, come on, I
know you got company.

Yeah, that's it.

Oh, man.

You processed a mountain of evidence

but didn't turn up a single suspect.

It's not my fault, man.

I had the scumbag dead to rights.

What are you talking about?

There's nothing here
to indicate that you...

This is it.

That's the killer's hair.

You did note morphology
consistent with the vic.

Yeah, but the position
- location was all wrong.

I pulled that out of her
navel, just that one hair.

It was a sexual assault,

It had to be from the killer.

But I couldn't prove it,
so... I didn't write it down.

This hair had a tag.

Did you run DNA?

In '89?

Man, we were just reading about DNA.

The only lab in the country

that was doing that stuff was
the FBI, and my supervisor-

he wouldn't have called
them in on a case like this.

I used to bust my ass to
keep a crime scene pristine,

and then some uniform would wobble over,

stuffing his face,

drop a hamburger
wrapper right at my feet.

Who the hell needs that?

Man, if I had the tools
you guys do today...

...I finally would
have been a real hero.

There's your money shot.

Damn it.

Did you preserve the hair?

Permount on a microscope
slide with a cover slip.

It should still be in Central Property.

Are your sure it's really here?

As I said when you
called, we have no record.

Sir,I spent half the
day at Central Property

going through their records.

Now, according to the case logs,
it was transferred to this court

in late 1989 and never returned.

So, it's got to be here somewhere, okay?

Okay.

So it is.

Excuse me, bro.

You rang?

Yeah, I think I need
a hand here, Hodges.

What is this?

It's from an '89 Jane Doe.

I'm looking for anything
that will help us out.

Those look like rat droppings.

That's because they
are rat droppings, man.

Are you familiar with the hantavirus?

Carried by rodents,
transmitted to humans

when they inhale vapors

from contaminated
urine, saliva or feces.

That crap will kill you.

glove up.

If I start leaking blood from
my eyeballs, I'm blaming you.

Keppler?

Didn't they give you an office?

I, uh... I like the noise.

It helps me to concentrate.

I prefer things quiet myself.

Of course, I am a pathologist.

I reviewed that Jane
Doe autopsy from '75.

That was fast.

Well, I'm sure the original
examination was, too.

M.E. was a hack named Sam Barnard.

He, uh, retired a little
while after I started.

Once saw him do a Y with
a scalpel in one hand

and a hot dog in the other.

I take it he wasn't known for
his, uh, rigorous analysis?

He was known for liking hot dogs.

Well, that's just great.

You know, if you really want to
figure out what killed your Jane Doe,

there's pretty much
only one thing we can do.

See the sutured cut
across the top of her head

and the Y-incision?

- No.
- It's because they're not there.

So the original M.E.
didn't even do an autopsy?

What can I say? He was a lazy bastard.

That's criminal malfeasance.

Well, if you want to tell
him, I can dig him up, too.

Ah, right.

So what do you got?

Check out the hyoid bone.

It's fractured.

Yeah, it doesn't take
much force to do it.

It's possible there
were no external marks.

So the girl was strangled.

So she is one of ours.

Gum line filling. Silver amalgam.

On the outside of the tooth?

That's a cheap way to do it.

Old school.

Nowadays, most dentists use epoxy

and other components to
make it match the enamel.

I worked a mass fatality fire in Philly.

Learned a lot about teeth.

Well,Veronica Sorensen had a
similar filling in her mouth.

Jane Doe '99 had traces of

chloral hydrate in her system.

I read that dentists used to use
it to sedate pediatric patients.

Looks like our guy might be a dentist.

Her name is Veronica
Sorensen, and we believe

that she might have been a patient here.

Oh, yes... that poor girl.

I saw her on the news. It's terrible.

These girls, do you
recognize any of them?

Are those girls dead?

We need you to look
carefully at those, ma'am.

I'm sorry. I don't recognize them.

Well, we're going to have
to see your patient files

from 1975 to '99.

Oh, well, I'm sorry.

Inactive files aren't
kept past seven years.

We just don't have the space.

Can you tell us who worked
on Veronica Sorensen?

I'll have to check.

We have several dentists on staff.

Even a few dental
students who volunteer.

There we are.

She saw Dr. Dave.

That's Dr. David Lowry.

Everyone around here calls him Dr. Dave.

How long has Dr. Dave been working here?

Oh, as long as I have.

And I'm going on my 32nd year.

Could you ask him to step out,
please? We'd like to speak with him.

It's 1:15.

He's at the Quality Cafe,
around the corner on Fremont.

Second booth on the left

facing the counter.

The man is nothing if not predictable.

Dr. David Lowry?

Everybody calls me Dr. Dave.

I'm Catherine Willows.

This is Michael Keppler.
We're from the Crime Lab.

- Please, join me.
- Thank you.

Dr. Lowry, we'd like to ask you
about one of your patients...

Veronica Sorensen.

Is this your work?

That was a very sad business.

She was a lovely, young girl.

She had a gum-line cavity.

Now, normally,

I would have used enamel resin

to match the teeth, but this
was on the inside of her mouth,

so I used amalgam to fill it
because it was less expensive,

and she was worried
about the cost, and...

her bill was never paid.

Are these your work as well?

I have no
idea- I was...

I was seeing a lot of
patients over the years.

Do you know their names? I
mean, that might ring a bell.

No, we don't know who they are.

Do you ever use chloral hydrate?

No one uses chloral hydrate
anymore. It's too dangerous.

I just feel so awful.

Why is that?

I brightened her smile.

Perhaps that's what
attracted her predator.

Oh, well...

you'll forgive, but if you
don't have any more questions,

I really should get back to my office.

Whoever did your mouth...

he does lovely work.

See you tomorrow, Dr. Dave.

I don't know, kind of
reminds me of my Uncle Ralph.

Except for the serial
killer part,I hope.

I haven't seen him
in a while, who knows?

In the original photograph,

it would've looked like a severe bruise.

But there's a lot of
information in the negative.

You know, back in the day,

they didn't have the
capability to see this stuff.

Pretty distinct impressions
of the six upper teeth.

And here, there's a small gap
between the two front teeth.

Did Dr. Dave have a
space between his teeth?

I don't remember.

But you can't go in there,
because he's with a patient.

Dr. Lowry,

would you please come with us?

Euginia has been seeing me for, um,

how many years, my dear?

I think it's much longer than that.

I'd like to finish Euginia up
before the Novocain wears off.

We've got a court order to
collect a bite impression from you.

Is this about these young girls?

I think you know what
this is about,Dr. Lowry.

You need to come down
to the crime lab with us.

Bite impression.

Couldn't we just do that here?

It'll save us all a
lot of time and trouble,

unless of course,

embarrassing me in front of
my patient is your real intent.

Fine.

Okay. Euginia?

I'm going to have you wait in Exam Four,

and I'll be in there
in just a short while.

No, come on, let's go.

Let's see, just...

And you know the upper
right teeth we worked on?

Well, they're looking fine.

There's too much water.
It will never set.

We've got time.

Young lady, please, please, please,

let me do this.

I have much more practice.

Be my guest.

You know...

I don't believe courts accept

bite mark evidence much anymore.

No, they'd much rather have
DNA from saliva around wound.

I've gotten convictions from bite marks.

Not many, I suspect.

Do you know that our teeth

continuously migrate

through our entire life?

Yes.

Dental forensics

is definitely an inexact science.

We could probably match four out of six.

That's not enough for a conviction.

Has to be. It's all we've got.

The killer's left front
incisor is misaligned.

Dr. Dave's smile is perfect.

Would you go to a
dentist with bad teeth?

So we're all on the same page, right?

About giving the man to these girls.

Yes.

So, Mike, the Viewing Room
is down the end of the hall.

Wait, why don't you
go in and I'll watch.

What makes you think
he's gonna talk to me?

Because I have a pretty good
feeling he's not gonna talk to me.

All right.

Dr. Lowry, I'd like to
show you a bite impression

that we're using as evidence
in the Sorensen case.

There are similarities.

But I don't think it's conclusive.

Yes.

The left front incisor doesn't match,

and there's a sizable gap
between the two front teeth.

But then we found these.

We subpoenaed your personal records.

You go to a good dentist.

In late 1989,

you had a cosmetic surgery to repair

a sizable gap between
your two front teeth.

Diastema. It's called diastema.

We used the X-rays taken
before the procedure

to modify your dental
model so that it matched

the configuration of your teeth in 1989.

This is the new overlay.

Very impressive.

You make a good case.

Wasn't easy, Dr. Lowry.

You cover your tracks well.

Dr. Dave, please, call me Dr. Dave.

Jane Doe in 1975,

Jane Doe in 1989, and Jane Doe,1999.

Three girls without identities.

You were the last
person to see them alive.

You know their names.

Tell us.

You have two daughters,
don't you, Dr. Lowry?

This is the most cryptic conversation

I've had since dental school.

All right, let me clear it up for you.

The last time you moved as a free man

was when you walked into this room.

When you leave here, you're
gonna be charged with murder.

So do yourself a favor,

give us the identity
of these three girls,

and you might spare
yourself the death penalty.

At my age, I'll die before that happens.

So what do you have to lose?

I don't want to degrade the
sweetness of my memories.

My memories are all I have left.

I can't imagine that
you didn't feel something

for these girls at some point.

We're just asking you to help
us return them to their families.

What benefit would I
get from doing this?

You might sleep better at night.

I sleep fine, thank you very much.

I've always considered that
a key to my good health.

So none of this bothers you?

My life has been blessed.

I was married to a kind woman.

Just lost her a few years ago.

We raised two children.

One of them is an oral surgeon,
the other one is a homemaker.

And you don't care how
this might affect them?

They'll be horrified, of course.

They're not monsters.

Well, I'm sure the judge will
take that into consideration.

You're not listening.

I don't feel bad about what I've done.

I feel disappointed
that I've been caught,

but I tend to take the
long view of things.

I've had a wonderful life,

and I know that all things human

eventually must end.

You have seven new messages.
