♪ ♪

Did he come?

It's time.

Fighting is escalating
here in Afghanistan.

The U.S. suffered
three casualties today.

♪ ♪

James, James, James.

Settle down. Settle down.

It's the governor.

The Defense Department has yet
to name today's casualties,

but at this time we can confirm

they come
from 22nd Infantry Division.

I understand.

Hello?

If you answer that,
I will kill you.

It's the state's
attorney's office.

He has other investigators.

I know. I don't start
for a week.

You know?
Must be important.

It's Delko.

The S.A. needs you in
as soon as possible.

I'll make coffee.

Yeah, um...

all right.

This aired last night,

and the governor
caught it on TV.

Mrs. Russo, as we
count down the hours

till Dr. James Bradstone's
execution,

we're revisiting his trial
from 15 years ago.

Now, you were an eyewitness?

I was right over there,

in my kitchen.

I looked out the window.

I was able to see
into their bedroom.

Dr. Bradstone
stabbed

his wife again
and again and again.

You were making tea there,
in your kitchen?

Mm-hmm.

But you can't see

the Bradstones' bedroom
from there; there are trees.

The prosecutor told me
the same thing.

Let me understand this.

The prosecutor told you

to say you saw
the Bradstone murders

from your living room,

when, actually, you were
there, in your kitchen?

The defense attorney
is now challenging

the validity of the witness'
initial statement,

and alleging
prosecutorial misconduct.

Bradstone's the "Killer Doc."

He killed his wife and daughter.

Yes, and left
his seven-year-old son for dead.

I remember the case, gentlemen.

He's been on death row
for 15 years.

He has exhausted his appeals.

We were minutes away from giving
this bastard what he deserves,

the governor grants him a stay.

Yes, but you were
the prosecutor.

Was there misconduct?

What?

Of course not.

She was a solid witness
for us at the time.

She made our case.

But after this interview,
she seems...

confused, at best.

The governor's threatening to

overturn the
conviction.
And we have 24 hours

to prove that what Ms. Russo saw
was accurate.

Or a killer walks free.

Nice going.

♪ Yeah! ♪

♪ We don't get fooled again ♪

♪ Don't get fooled again ♪

♪ No, no! ♪

Eric, why don't you start by
telling us about the victims?

Sure.

Got, uh, Sarah Bradstone.

She's a... she's a mother, wife,

former nurse, PTA president.

She was 28.

Come on, you guys!

Got her daughter

Caitlin Bradstone...
She was five...

And their son Todd... seven.

Great.

He survived.

You were first
on the scene 15 years ago.

Did Todd see anything?
No.

He was knocked unconscious

before he could see
his attacker.

He was stabbed several times.

They revived him
at the hospital.

Eric, what kind of physical
evidence do we have

to support
the eyewitness testimony?

Got the murder weapon.

I know the kids
are sleeping. I know that!

I know that they're...
Stop!

Got her blood and his prints.

We've also got a blood pool
in the bedroom,

which is the exact location
where the eyewitness Mrs. Russo

said that she saw the murder
take place from her window.

Now, he must have stood
over her while she bled out,

because we got a void
on either side of her body.

Killer must have gone
down the hallway at that point

to the little girl's room.

His own children.

This guy is a psychopath.

We found a blood trail

of partial footprints
that led from Sarah's body

to the master bathroom.

Now, James Bradstone claimed
that the intruder

broke in through
the bathroom window

and committed the murder.

But he was lying,

because the lab was able to show

that the window was broken
from the inside.

Bradstone also transferred
trace amounts

of the victim's blood
onto the glass,

which indicated that it happened

after the murders.

I'm telling you,

capital punishment was made
for this guy.

I was working a late shift
on E.R.

I came home, I fell asleep

on the couch,
right in the living room.

I woke up...

to my wife screaming.

There was a man
with a black mask.

He was stabbing her.

We fought.

I managed to pull the knife
out of his hand.

And then he ran.

Sarah was already gone.

Sarah.

No.

No, Sarah...

Caitlin? Caitlin?

Caitlin, wake up, baby.

Wake up, baby.

Wake up, baby. Wake up.

Todd? Todd!

Todd!

Todd? Todd?

Come on.

Okay. Come on, boy.

Todd? Come on.

Somebody took my family.

Took them.

Sir, I believe
that God let me live

so I could help you to find him.

Who do you think he was?

Lieutenant, James told the
police he was stealing pills

from his hospital
and selling them.

Yes, I read the report,
gentlemen.

So apparently,
you're a drug dealer.

I wanted to stop.

And some of my customers,
they were resentful.

And I think one of them
broke in and

did this, because they knew
there weren't any drugs.

I mean, I gave the whole list
to your cops 15 years ago.

I'm going to need
to see that list.

Mr. Newhouse, we know
that the doctor was selling

prescription pills.

We have you on a list of buyers.

Am I the only one?

Well, let's see,
two on the list have died,

two don't match the physical
description of the attacker,

and one has an alibi.

So that leaves you.

You really think I chopped
up a woman and two kids

over a couple of pills?

So you admit
to buying the pills?
Look,

I-I went through
this... all of this...

With the police back
then, all right?

They-they cleared me
as a suspect, so...

Do us a favor, tell us again.

Okay.

Uh, I worked the E.R.
night shift with James.

I developed an affection
for painkillers.

When I lost my
medical license...

I got the pills off James.

But I didn't break
into his house,

and I didn't kill anybody.

Where were you
at the time of the murders?

That's not
in your little file there?

Mr. Newhouse... just humor us.

I was at a meeting.

What meeting?

You know, a meeting trying
to deal with my addiction.

That's very convenient.

Those meetings are anonymous.

There's no list for us to check.

That's not my problem.

You're right, it's our problem.

Tell you what.

You can leave,
Donald, but be smart.

Don't leave town.

Okay.

I was standing
in my living room.

Through the window,

I saw into
the Bradstones' bedroom.

James Bradstone was stabbing
his wife

again and again.

Here you go.

Thank you.

Mrs. Russo, I need
to clear something up

from your news interview.

Were you in the kitchen
or the living room

when you saw the murder happen?

James Bradstone killed his wife.

I don't see what
difference it makes.

Matters to a lot of people,
starting with the governor,

prosecutor, Bradstone,

and his only surviving son.

I need to know.

Now, you're sure
that you were standing here,

looking out this window,

when you saw Dr.
Bradstone kill his wife?

Yes.

Hold on a second.

Mrs. Russo...

there's an unobstructed view
of the Bradstones' bedroom

from the living room.

Don't you think you witnessed
the murder from over there?

But I wa...
If you were
to remember

you were in the living room,
it would help us

in holding Mr.
Bradstone responsible

for these horrible murders.

Yes.

I suppose I could have been
in my living room.

I was in my kitchen, but it
doesn't change what I saw.

I trusted that young officer.

He wouldn't have let me do
something wrong.

Oh, Delko.

Uh, we need to talk
about Louise Russo's statement.

Yeah, I already know.

She told you she was

in the kitchen
when she saw the murders.

Yeah, that's what I want
to talk to you about.

Look, I have a copy
of Mrs. Russo's statement

right here, the same one

that Talbot sent to the defense
during the trial.

At first glance, looks fine.

When I looked at the original,

I could see
that "kitchen" was erased

and replaced
with "living room."

You took the report.

I suppose I could've been
in my living room.

Officer Cardoza.

Let's see, um, so...

You write down
that Mrs. Russo witnessed

the murder from her living room.

Yeah, but, you know,
she really didn't say that.

Ah, this is your first
homicide, isn't it?

Yeah.
Then, benefit

from my years of experience
and trust me.

I mean, you have
grandparents, right?

So, she's a little confused.

But you believe
she saw it happen, right?

She saw it happen, yes.

'Cause there's only one way
that that is possible.

You don't want this guy
to get away with it.

Do you?

Okay.

Look, at the time, I was doing
what I thought was right.

James Bradstone murdered
his family.

And now he may just
walk away because

the key witness was coerced.

Eric...

What are you working on?

We got a problem
with Mrs. Russo's statement.

The reporter got it right.
Mrs. Russo's saying that

now she was in her kitchen
when she saw the murders.

That's impossible, because
the tree blocks her view

completely from that room.

Well, if we can't explain this,

the governor is going
to overturn the conviction.

Gentlemen, need I remind you,

there is another witness.

I'll take it from here.

My parents fought
sometimes, but to believe

my dad could...

He's written me thousands of
letters saying he's innocent.

My grandparents told
me not to answer.

I guess they thought
it'd help me forget.

Todd, in your statement,
you mentioned

that you heard a train.

I know that there
are no tracks there.

I... I was seven.

Maybe it was a truck.

All I know is, it was loud.

In the midst
of all that noise, Todd,

you heard your mother.

Didn't you?

She was screaming.

I was in bed.

I got up and went to the hall.

Todd... go on.

I have this image in my head
of that day... of someone...

I don't know who... on top
of my mother, hurting her.

But... that wasn't...

that wasn't
in your statement, son.

The cops said it was my
dad, or I imagined it.

You got a kid talking
about trains where
there are no tracks.

There's not a lot of
credibility there.

Did you ever tell anybody else?

I tried to, but no one listened.

Okay, but, Todd, I'm listening.

Are you telling me
there's a chance

that someone
other than my dad did this?

You know what?

We need to find out, don't we?

So Horatio thinks that Todd
Bradstone might have walked in

on his mother
being sexually assaulted.

Well, we just pulled
all the clothes from that night,

'cause we're gonna go through
them and look for evidence.

There was nothing
in the M.E.'s report

to suggest that she was
sexually assaulted.

Let's, uh... let's check anyway.

Sure.

♪ ♪

Think I got something.

What is it?

Well, the sample is
really small, but...

it could be semen.

Whoa, 15 years later?
Is it still viable?

Normally, you know,
heat and moisture and sunlight

would degrade the sample,
but it's been sitting

in refrigerated storage.

It's a good thing
we checked the clothes, huh?

That was a long time ago.

We didn't have CSIs
to collect all the evidence.

I'm not to blame for everything
that went wrong on this case.

Your words,

not mine.

Bradstone is guilty.

That I'm sure of.

Maybe.

Maybe not.

Dr. Newhouse, have a seat.

Okay, I'm very busy.

You guys drag me down
here twice in one day?

Why don't you explain to me
how your semen ended up

on the clothes Sarah was wearing
the night she was murdered?

Excuse me?

Did you kill her?

No, James Bradstone killed her.

I think we all know that.

Their son Todd Bradstone said
that he saw a man

on top of his mother the day
she was murdered, hurting her.

Come on, how old was he?

Kids get confused.

Were you having an affair?

We were having fun.

She was hot.

Her husband was ignoring her.

Yeah.

I was there that night.

Honey, I'm home.

He's home early.

Yeah, from who knows where.

He needs to know, Donald, today.

Are you crazy?

No, not like this.

You get downstairs
and you stall him.

What are you going to do,

climb out the bathroom window?

Uh, yeah.

Go on, get down there, go!

I heard screaming coming from
downstairs, and I went out

through the bathroom window.

It was stuck.

I had to kick it out.

You were there when it happened.

Yeah, but that's all I know.

I got right out of there.

Why didn't you come forward?

You already had a witness.

Besides, I didn't
really see anything.

I think there's more to it
than that.

I'm gonna have you go
with Officer Johnson.

Ryan, hey.

I need you to go
to the crime scene.

Hey, she get her hearing
checked out yet?

I told her she's
a liability until she...

I can hear you both,
clear as a bell.

You heard that?
Well, yeah.

I went to the doctor.

I, uh, got this
little hearing aid.

Check it out.

She's like
the Bionic Woman now.
Exactly.

I was cleared for work,
so watch what you say.

This place is exactly how it was
at the time of the murders.

Well, Todd Bradstone owns it,
used to live in it.

I'm not sure why
he hangs on to the place.

Who'd buy it?

It's eerie.

Donald Newhouse says
he broke the bathroom window.

Calleigh wants us to luminol it

for the presence of blood.

All right.

There was definitely blood here.

Yeah, it says that there
were tiny droplets

of the victim's blood
on the broken glass.
Right.

But the prosecution believed

that James Bradstone
transferred that blood there

when he kicked the window out,

then he lied about an
intruder doing it.

So, if Donald Newhouse
broke the window,

that means he's responsible for

the presence of
the victim's blood.

Newhouse said that he was gone
before the murders happened.

So, how'd the blood
get on him, then?

That's a good question.

Hold on.

I got a blood trail here.

Yeah, that's documented
in this file, as well...

Leading right to where
Sarah Bradstone was murdered.

James Bradstone wasn't standing
over Sarah as she died.

No.

Donald Newhouse was.

I should have told you
before, Donald.

I don't like liars.

What are you talking about?

You killed her.
You killed Sarah.

Blood proves it.

You left a blood trail
from Sarah Bradstone's body

to the bathroom window
that you kicked out.

Her blood, your footprints.

She wasn't downstairs
arguing with her husband.

She was bleeding
out at your feet.

I'm sorry.

Are you admitting
to killing Sarah?

Sarah and I, we were, we were
together that night. I...

And as I was...

sneaking out, I, uh,
realized that I...

I left my wallet
in the bedroom, and...

before I could get back in,

the yelling from downstairs,
it came up into the bedroom.

And then I heard
the door slam, and then...

it was quiet again.

Oh, God.

Help me.

I'm so sorry.

So you let her die,
but you grabbed your wallet.

Well, I wasn't going
to leave it there.

'Cause that would have
made you a suspect.

Listen, you were in the house.

You have opportunity.
You were having an affair.

That's motive. I have
to be honest with you.

I think you look good for this.

We're going to hold you.

I'm going to have Eric show
Donald's picture to Mrs. Russo.

Maybe she can I.D. him
as the killer.

Mrs. Russo.

Hi.

You guys again.

I'm on my walk.

Yeah, this will just
take a second, okay?

Um, could you...

could you tell us
if that might have been

the man you saw
attacking Sarah Bradstone?

Hold on a sec.

I need my readers.

Hmm. Now, maybe

from a distance,
I could have confused them.

Is that what you think
might have happened?

Nope. Not him.

You sure?

I told you
15 years ago, young man,

and I'm telling you again.

I saw James Bradstone
kill his wife.

How many more times
do I have to tell you?

Thank you, Mrs. Russo.

We'll need you to testify
at a hearing later today, okay?

Of course you do.

Our office will call you
to set it up.

That's good!

She's telling the truth.

Yeah, well, we're
running out of time

to prove it.

Got her?

Yeah.
All right.

Mrs. Russo.

This is Delko. I need a BOLO out
on a black Prius.

Mrs. Russo? Mrs. Russo?
No plates. Suspect vehicle was
involved in a hit-and-run.

It's heading south on Pine.

Okay.

Hey.

Mrs. Russo?

Mrs. Russo?

Come on, breathe.

I've got the suspect vehicle...

Black Prius, no plates...
In sight.

Pine and Sonora.

Out of the car,
driver, right now!

Let me see your hands!

What's your problem?
Ow! It was an accident.

It was a hit-and-run, genius.

I got scared.

I have two DUIs on my record,

so I took off.

No, you didn't.

You didn't even apply
the brakes. I saw you!

You just ran her down.

Look, it happened too fast.

One minute, the street's clear.

The next minute,
she's on the hood of my car.

This was no accident.

You got a map in here
with the victim's

name and address on it.

What the hell do you have...?

What? What
do you got?

Gold bar?

Who hired you to
kill Louise Russo?

Um, I want to see a lawyer.

Yeah.

You're going to see your
lawyer at the police station.

Let's go.

Cuff him.

Walter's still tracking
down the gold bars.

Frank, does Phillip Hale
have a record?

No, he's clean, but I pulled up

his Social Security number
to find out where he works.

What'd you get?

Well, when he's not
running over old ladies,

he, uh, a caddie
at the Forty Palms Country Club.

Isn't the Forty Palms
near the hospital

James Bradstone used to work at?

Yeah.

Maybe that's where
they crossed paths.

They sent me a members list
that goes back 15 years.

Is Bradstone a member?
He's not.

However... look who is.

Thank you.

Where'd you get the
gold bars from, Donald?

What gold bars?

Gold bars you used to
pay off Phillip Hale.

Who?

Donald, you hired Phillip Hale
to kill Louise Russo.

This is... this is crazy.

Phillip was a caddie
at Forty Palms.

You are a member there.

My Forty Palms membership,
it lapsed like a decade ago.

And I don't know
any Phillip Hale!

You know what I think?

I think you knew
that we were gonna

show Mrs. Russo
your photograph

and she was gonna I.D.
you as the killer.

Which was really stupid, Donald,

'cause she never even
pointed the finger at you.

I wouldn't kill anyone.

Not this Louise woman.

And especially not Sarah.

You don't understand.

Understand what?

I loved Sarah.

And she loved me.

You told me earlier that you
were just having a good time.

It was more than that.

We were making plans to...

to be together,
and I think that...

James found out,
and that's why he killed her.

So, you loved her,
but you didn't help her?

I know.

I'm a coward.

You think I don't know that?

I would never hurt her.

I'm sorry, but your word

just doesn't mean
very much right now.

So, did we track down
the serial numbers

on the gold bars, Walter?

Yes, sir, we did.

They were stolen from a bank's

safety deposit box
up in Orlando.

A man named Robert Sage
was convicted of the heist

15 years ago, but they never
recovered all the gold.

Is Sage still in prison?
No.

He was released two weeks ago.

He must have gotten out
and dug up his stash.

Okay, let's get after him, then.

Yeah, there's an APB out
on him, but no luck so far.

Walter, let me ask you
a question.

Why would Sage
give Hale his gold?

Aha.

You know,
I thought the same thing,

so I made a couple calls,
and get this... Sage was tried

in federal court here in Miami.

While awaiting trial,
he was housed

in the same cell block
as James Bradstone.

They've exchanged letters
ever since.

Well, that's the
answer, isn't it?

I don't know him.

But you do know
Robert Sage, James.

You two were in
the same cell block together.

Yeah, well, faces and names
tend to blur in here.

Sage hired Hale
to kill Louise Russo.

Louise is dead?

You recommended
that somebody be recruited

from Forty Palms,
which gave us Newhouse,

your former drug client.

So tell me,

did Phillip Hale tell you

about this deal I made with him?

Or did Robert Sage?

I didn't think so.

You can't prove any of this.

James, did you know your wife
was having an affair?

An affair?

Wh-When?

A witness came forward
to tell me

that he was with her
the night of the murders.

Well, who?

Who?! Maybe I can
identify him.

Come on, he's got to be
the killer. Who was it?

You already know who he is.

You knew about the affair,
and you killed her for it.

You trying to rattle me?

It ain't gonna work.

I am so close.

You think so?

So, you found my
wife's boyfriend.

He's got to be a suspect.

And you lost your eyewitness.

You're making this
case better for me

than any defense attorney could.

Matter of fact, you're
making it real hard

for the governor not to
just let me out of here.

Thanks.

James...

I'm not finished yet.

What was the strength of
this case in the first place?

Mrs. Russo's
testimony.

We know that she
couldn't have seen

the murder from her kitchen.

But we now know
there was a second witness.

Bradstone's son
was there, right?

Yeah, he didn't see anything.

No, but what did he say
in his testimony?

He said that he heard the train,
and then he heard the screams.

Right. Those are
the frightened ramblings

of a seven-year-old boy.

We know there are no tracks
near there, so...

what else

sounds like a train?

What about the weather?

Let's check the weather.

All right.

Well, that night, Hurricane Erin
was 100 miles off the coast.

What was the wind speed?

It was only a category one,

but there were winds

of 50 miles per hour
reported here in Miami.

50 miles an hour?

You're thinking
that the train sound

that Todd heard
was actually wind?

You know what?

I've got an idea.

All right, let's get
those fans over here.

All right, I'm in the kitchen.

I'm in position, as well.

All right, the wind would have
been coming off of the water,

so I had them pointing the wind
machines this way, all right?

Okay, when you're ready,
Eric, crank it up.

Yeah. Set it to
50 miles an hour, all right?

You see anything?

Just the trees.

Still no clean line of sight.

She couldn't have seen

the murder from here.

H, I don't think
this is working.

Okay, hang on a second, Jesse.

We're getting an effect here...
A wind tunnel effect.

You mean the way
the wind picks up speed

between skyscrapers.

That's exactly right.

It creates a funnel

in which the pressure goes up,
and if the pressure goes up,

the speed increases.

Okay, how much to match
the speed 15 years ago?

At least half, Jesse.

Well, that's 75 miles per hour.

Crank it up, Eric.

Hey, crank it up
to 75 miles per hour.

Are we good, Jesse?

Yeah, we're good.

She was telling the truth.

A wind tunnel?

Blew the trees 45 degrees
to the left.

Creating a clear line of sight

from the kitchen
to the murder scene.

She saw what she said she saw...

James Bradstone killing his wife
and daughter.

Wow. So, can you validate
these wind patterns?

We got documentation from
the Atlantic Weather Service.

It sinks Bradstone.

Whew! So, the governor
will accept the inconsistencies

in Mrs. Russo's statements
as harmless error.

All right, we're good.

I should have never allowed you

to get that woman to
change her testimony.

Jesse...

You risked my career
and your career.

I mean, do you understand
we almost let a killer walk?

You done?

I need to take these
to the governor.

So, it's true?

My father really did it?

It's true, son.

Seems like
I've wasted a lot of time

waiting for an answer
I already knew.

So, can I stop being afraid
of him now?

You can, Todd.

He's not gonna hurt you anymore.

What a dad, huh?

Do you have a family?

I have a son, Todd.

He's about your age.

He got dealt a bad hand, too.

But you know what?

He rallied.

Just the way
I think you can, Todd.

You know what I'm going
to do tomorrow, Lieutenant?

What's that?

Put this place on the market.

Good for you.

Hey.

You going to the gym?
Yeah.

About last night...
I know that we keep saying

that it's not
gonna happen anymore.

Yeah?

But it keeps happening.

That a bad thing?

I don't know that we should talk
about it here.

So, what, your place or mine?

Hmm.

You forgive me, son?

It's time.

You deserve this.

Kyle.

Dad. Hey.

How's it going over there, son?

Well, you know,
some days are hard.

You know, the firefights, uh...

It's not like the movies.

This is real.

Um, yesterday,
uh, we helped this...

we helped these kids
rebuild a school

that was destroyed
during the fighting.

Dad, you've never seen
so many kids

so excited to go back to school.

That was cool.

Sounds like it.

So, I-I guess
yesterday was a good day.

I think maybe I'm doing
something important over here.

Hey, Dad, uh, what's the matter?

You look kind of sad.

No, son.

No. It's just...
