" Who found him?" " The police were sweeping the area looking for vagrants, trying to keep their heads above the water." "Take a look at his nose." "Same thing with his chin, his elbows, and his toes." "He lost all his points." "Like a rock in a tumbler." "I'm sorry I am late." "Stopped to get my waders." "No wallet." "Oh, what's that?" "What do you think?" "I'll get it to Narco." "Take a look." "How is the death?" "Water pressure could have done it." "Or a person." "Hey, wow, it's a mess." "I've talked to every resident in the area." "No one knows this guy." "No one accounts for vehicles." "I don't know what to tell you." "Well, at least we know where we came from." "Are we at least gonna draw straws?" "No." "We must be on to the freeway by now." "Hey." "Did I ever tell you the city paid me a dollar with a square foot to rip out my lawn and replace it with rock because we are in a drought?" " Are you kidding?" " No." "The city was not made for rain." "Catherine." "Grissom, we got another body." "I was taking a nap." "CSI:" "Season 5 Episode 2 Down the Drain" "I was real tired, ok?" "So I just get some sleep." "Yes, I understand." "Listen, I need to ask you a question." "Have you ever seen this guy right here?" "No." "You don't know him?" "Uh, someone comes down here don't belong, I mean, bad stuff can happen, ok?" "I just want to go home, ok?" " You can make me leave my house." " Nobody's made you do anything, ok?" "Now, you like coffee?" "Oh, yes, as long as it's decaf, one sugar, two cream, no skimming and hot, your lawsuit hot." "Ok, you go to that officer over there and have yourself a nice cup of coffee, alright?" "Is that you, Warrick?" "There you are." "Huh, Is that a sneaker?" "No, looks like an Aquasock.." "Here's its mate." "Kind of upscale for a tunnel rat?" "So the vic was barefoot." "Tunnel's full of murder weapons." "Bum kills them." "or finds the body and takes the socks." "What was the guy doing here in the first place?" "Well, maybe the vic was some punk, with an attitude decided to take it out on some homeless guy, you never know." "The way the body was ground down means that the water took it for a pretty long ride." "Well we're already wet, so ..." "Excuse me!" "Down here." "Oh, what's your problem, sweaty?" "Ah, no problem, sir." "I'm just waiting to know what street I'm on, under." "Oh, it's ... em ..." "Industrial, you're just south of Tropicana.." "Thank you." "And I'm not holding the bus." "Don't brother." "Alright, so we're about a mile away south of where we started." "Well, with 300 miles of storm drains in Clark County, we only have 299 left." "Ok, what do we do now?" "Ennie-mini-minie-mo it, split up?" "No, it's a dead end." "Sunscreen on a lanyard." "Fits with the Aquasocks." "I say we keep going upstream." "I knew you are going to say that." "Watch your head." "I'm gonna need the drain pan." " This town isn't built for rain." " Em." "Come on, don't be shy." "Take a good look." "In the end... it's all we really are." "If you are going to be sick, Greg, do it in the sink." "Not in the drain pan." "I don't feel sick." "Take a look at the trachea, what do you see?" "Foam, Like the head of a beer." "Sorry." "No, it's a good analogy." "Pulmonary edema, fluids in the air passages." "So he drowned?" "Well, doesn't prove it." "Same thing happens with uh, heart failure or drug overdose." "But the fact that the heart of the victim was a normal size, and assuming tox doesn't show drug overdose, C.O.D. is most likely drowning," "But I'm not going to rule out blunt-force trauma." "Daylight, finally." " We are going to be into some golden time by now, right?" " Oh, yeah." "For real." "Ka-ching, Ka-ching." "Now, what do we have here?" "Brain bucket." "There's something in the lid." "Hang on to that." "It's our dead guy." "No way." "Calvin Berkowitz." "Worked at the Tangiers, lifeguard." "What's Calvin doing down here?" "It's an inner tube." " Yeah?" " The guy has a day off, decides to go surfing, Vegas style." "I heard about that." "He grabs an inner tube, a helmet, jumps into the channel." " Hits his head on something, drowns." " So it takes him down." "This would account for the body trauma." "This isn't about drugs, or beating up homeless dudes." "It's just plain stupidity." "Well, that's what happens when you don't have a decent beach in Vegas." "Hey, you know something, this is, uh, right around where I found Lindsay." "Really?" "Yeah, when Eddie's car went off the road." "Ugh..." "Let's just get out of here." "Can you take that ?" "Watch your step." "Are you alright?" " Yeah, I think" " Wow." "Hey." "You guys CSI?" "Yeah." "Well, the city's been rehabbing manholes with fiberglass liners." "All the hydrogen sulfide down there really eats up the concrete." "Anyway, we pull these out of the main." "We find a lot of small animal bones down there." "squirrels, cats, rats you know." "That's really tiny stuff." "These were more like people." "fingers or toes, or fingers and toes." "Well, animal bones can fool you." "Pig's feet or sheep ribs are not much different from yours or mine." "Flaky texture." "Probably a couple of years old." "Yeah, we are going to flush the line." "You guys get a lot of jokes about this thing?" "What do you think?" "Vactor's in place." "Ready when you are." "Rip it." "Let's go." "Warrick." "Yo." "I got some bones here." "Anything distinctive?" "Yeah, I got part of a rib." "En-huh, I can see the costal groove." "Yeah, it's too deep to be animal's bone." "It's human." "Here is the sewage vault." "How do we know that the bone just didn't wash off the street?" "Well, wastewater sewage is a closed system." "It's completely seperate from the storm drains." "Someone must have flushed it down a toilet, a sink, a tub, or ... tossed them directly into a manhole." "And the bone's pretty old." "So it could be just from a grave robber getting rid of his leftovers." "Or a serial killer with a lot of patience?" "Two hundred thousand service connections, serving half a million residences." "sixteen hundred miles of pipe, gravity fed." "If we're gonna find where the bones came from, we gotta work our way up." "Catherine." "Recovered more bones." "Pelvis fragment and two humerus." "Well, large bones wouldn't travel down the line as far as the small ones, so at least we're getting closer to the source." "These plumbers must be working overtime." "Lots of backed up toilets." "I don't think the bones could have come from any one of these houses." "Residential sewer lines are only four-inch pipes." "And they make a 90-degree turn before they connect to the main." "Look at the size of these bones." "They're too big to make a turn like that." "Right." "So the blockage has gotta be from the main line." "One more vault down the street." "Jackpot." "I'll go check it out." "It's like a waterline stain." "Hand me my florazene and my glasses, please." "Florazene reacts to feces as well as blood, so I know that you're not looking for blood." "No." "These vaults are built big for access." "They're not reservoirs." "Water's supposed to stay down in the pipes." "And the only way the water would rise is if there's something blocking the pipe." "And loose bones wouldn't do that." "But a whole body would." "Water rises, submerges the body." "Tissue decomposes until there's not enough body left to withstand the pressure." "I don't think we're looking for a grave robber." "We're looking for a murderer." "Femur measurements make your victim around five foot six." "Pubic arch, mm, sharply angled, less than 90-degrees, indicates male." "I'll send it to Greg." "He might be able to pull DNA." "Look at this." "Incise defect on the left fifth rib." "Incise defect on the left third rib." "Well, the tool marks appear consistent with each other." "Probably made before decomposition, and not from hitting any obstruction in the sewer line." "Stab wounds." "Two separate strikes back to front would have punctured the lung." " What about age?" " I'll let you know." "Ok, let's start with the houses within eyeshot of the manhole, and then we'll work our way out from there." "Em?" "Ok." "You really, really ought to have the one with chocolate icing." " Hello, Officer." " Oh, dear." " Detective." " Detective." "Sorry, I..." "Uh, just a little something for you and your boys, uh, a token of appreciation for local law enforcement." "You mind standing behind the tape?" "It's for your own safety." " There you go." " Go ahead." "Coffee's fresh." "Didn't even spit in it." " Not that I ever would." "I, I love cops." " What's your name?" "Marty, uh, Martin Kessler." "I live here... there, right over there, number 2305." "So, uh, does this have anything to do with the missing cats?" "People have lost a lot of pets in this neighborhood." "Too many, if you get my drift." "Well, you know, Marty, I'm really not at liberty to say." "But did you see anybody throw any stuff down that sewer?" "Not personally, but, uh, I know kids around here throw fireworks... illegal, down there." "Kaboom!" "Kaboom!" "4:00 in the morning." "Kids have no respect for the law." "I heard you finally lost your virginity." " First autopsy." "How was it?" " It was fine." "How was your first time?" "How did you react?" " I puked." " I didn't puke." "Way to go, tough guy." "It was weird, seeing a body laying on a table like that." "Dr. Robbins just pulling out his insides until it was all empty." "Were you expecting a ball of light?" "Dr. Robbins said, "That's all we really are."" "It's what you do with it that counts." "Victim had incomplete formation of the second molar root tips, and his wisdom teeth hadn't erupted." " Teenager." " Yeah, approximately 13 to 15." "Eye orbits rounded, almost oval." "Nasal aperture narrow and tall, jawline flat." "Likely Caucasian." "Uh, dental records are out to NCIC." "That's all I've got." " How'd Greg do?" " Bones are too degraded." " No viable DNA, not even in the teeth." " Well, it's a bit of a long shot." "Sewer's a chemical stew." "Maybe Catherine will get lucky with missing persons." "Ok, I opened the age range, to give us a better margin for error." "Currently 47 male Caucasians between the age of 12 and 16 missing from the Great Las Vegas Metro District." "Ok, geography first." "Em-huh." "Body was found here." "These are the last known residences for the missing persons." "There's no one particularly close." "I'll narrow it down." "Two mile radius." "Missing six weeks." "Eleven weeks and eleven months." "It's not long enough." "The condition of the bones suggested the body's been decomposing for at least two years." "Ok, I'll go wider, five miles." "What are you doing?" "Good you're here." "Fill this up for me, will you?" " With what?" " It's an urine specimen cup, Greg, what do you think?" "Ok." "That took a long time." " You may need a prostate exam." " My prostate is just fine." "I'm not a soda fountain." "Hopefully you are." "Cos I need a number two, as quickly as possible." " What is this all about?" " A victim's body was found in a sewer." "Ambient temperature 80 degrees." "The corrosive chemicals caused the body to decompose faster than normal." "I want to find out how much faster." "Today." "This is some kind of CSI hazing." "Making me appreciate blood and semen more." "I mean since we don't have a solid time frame, it's kind of tough to jog memories, but nobody saw anybody threw anything like a body down that manhole." "Several people suggested we talk to this high school kid, Owen Durbin." "He's a neighborhood bully." "He likes throw cherry bombs in there and here them go boom." "Oh, guys, how are we supposed to get through the door?" "There is no evidence linking this kid to the bones." "We're not looking for the bones." " Illegal use of fireworks, this is crap." " We have several complaints from your neighbors, sir." "No one's complained to me." "Well, this is gonna happen." "So please step outside." "Ask your family to come with you, thank you." "Come on, guys." "Let's go." "Anything happens in here, it's your fault." "Ok." "Wow, lot of ammo here." "Different caliber means multiple weapons are present somewhere." "I got a shot gun under the couch." "Oh yeah." "Loaded." "Sounds like we got some nasty dogs out back." "I think I got blood." "Confirmed." "Ok, I'm getting to get a warrant amended for blood evidence collection, until then ... we stop searching." "Won't take long, so hang loose." "I'll get the animal control to get these mutts out of here." " So uh, no searching." " Yeah, right." "Oh that closet is well stocked, huh?" "Sara." "I am not touching anything." "No." "Put your stuff down." "And step away from the closet." " What?" " Put down your stuff." "And step away from the closet." "Those are pipe-bombs." "Dispatch, this is CSI Brown." "We are at the Derbin residence." "We have explosives on the scene." "Roll out bomb squad immediately, roll out bomb squad." "What are you doing?" "There's blood evidence on the door, the bomb squad detonates the place, it's gone." "Sara." "It'll only take a second." "Here, try this." "Nice." "It's a stuck." "I think we're gonna need a little push." "Alright." "On three." "One." "Two." "Three." "Can we get the hell out of dodge now ?" "Let's go over again what you found at the scene." "Six pipe bombs." "Anything else?" "Not that we know of." "Give me another 50 yards, ok?" "That includes you." "Got it." "Tell me something." "What's a guy who sells life insurance doing with having a dozen of pipe bombs?" "Hum?" "I mean you got a grudge against the government." "Is this a Timothy McVeigh thing?" "Or ... you just have a weird fascination with watching things go boom?" "I've never been arrested for anything, I've never hurt anybody." "You got a wife and a kid, aren't you afraid they might get hurt?" "Well, I don't know how about you but in my house there're rules." "Terrin and Owen know what to do and what not to do." "Well clearly you don't." "The bombs are Class B felony." "The penalty is one to six years in prison for each device." "And murder is 25 to life." "Somebody gets blown up, it's nothing to do with me." "I told you not to go in my house." " We found blood in your house." " Then you must had put it there." "Oh yeah, how about this?" "We found a body in the sewer in front of your house." "Did we put that there?" "No, I don't know anything about it." "So what are you trying to prove with this door?" "I'm just looking for evidence." "Greg can't pull a DNA from the bones, so this is nothing to connect the victim to this anyway." "Not yet." "I know I have a death wish," "I am not a drunk in case you were worried." "I am not worried." "I am concerned." "Isn't that kind of same thing?" "How are you doing with victim ID?" "So far we've followed up on 11 missing person who fit the profile, ruled out everyone by case history." "What's the most recent case?" "Oh we're only looking at people who have been missing more than a year." " The condition of the bones..." " Was misleading." "Tissue in a sewer decomposes 20 times faster than normal." "The victim could've been missing as little as 5 weeks." ""Missing 6 weeks"" ""Bomb Squad"" "Are we clear to get back in there?" "We're not through." "We swept the house for boody traps, it's clean. but we still haven't done the full search yet." "Well why don't you clear an area and we'll process behind you?" "Scene will still be under my authority." "I don't have a problem with authority." "Fire in the hole." "This is Travis's ninth grade picture." "His father, my son was a punk." "Yeah, he skipped out just after Travis was born." "His mother is in Salt Lake." "She is a junkie." "The only time she ever called Travis was to use him to get money out of me." "She can barely take care of herself, let alone a kid." "You know how many times I told him that." "Most of the time kids believe what they want to believe you know." " Did he run off to see his mum?" " Hum." "Yeah, it wasn't the first time." "He's..." "About six weeks ago, I came home to a note." "So I called his mum, and..." "He just never, he never showed up." "Ms. Giles, do you...do you recognize this boy?" "No." " No?" " Hum." "Do you have anything of Travis's he might've used on his body?" "Like a toothbrush, hairbrush, anything like that?" "No, he took all that kind of thing with him when he left." "Why?" "That would help if I could get a sample of Travis's DNA." "Look." " Madam, I don't really know how to say this..." " Don't bother." "I know he is dead." "Is this a classmate of yours, Owen?" "No." "Ok, let's try that again." "You two went to the same middle school, right?" "Maybe." "I guess." "You guess." "Were you friends?" "I know my son's friends." "That's not one of them." "Mrs. Durbin, may I speak with you for a minute in private?" "Excuse us, Owen." "You know sometimes kids get self-conscious around their parents, maybe it would be better if I spoke to Owen by myself." "He'll have an advocate present to make sure his rights are respected." "Ok?" "I am not leaving my son alone with you." "My husband won't like that." "Medium-velocity spatter." "This looks like the point of origin." "Yeah, this is Catherine Willows for Captain Brass." "Tell me about the blood in your house." "Blood?" "Where?" "At the top of stairs." "The starters." "I don't know what you're talking about." "You do." "I don't." "Maybe it's the dogs'." "When they go upstairs sometimes, sometimes they fight." "They fight a lot." "Animal control said the Durbin's pit bulls showed no signs of recent injury." "Dogs seal fast, I guess I'll go back to the lab and get a hematrace." "Don't bother." "The lowest point of spatter is 46 inches above the ground with a downward angle." "Even if those dogs can walk upright, they couldn't have done this." "Kid's a liar." "I'm not done yet." "Take your time." "That's some detcord here." "Isn't that high explosive?" "Stuff designed to be humped around by grunts, you gotta want it go off." "Only one thing you need to worry about." "Ever see me running, make sure you keep up." "Got it." "Hey, Rick." "Watch your step." "This could be blood evidence on the floor." "Ok, Grissom." "I located some burnt clothes in the barrel out in the back." "I am thinking he was killed in the house, dragged out back and dumped." "He might've been dragged in here." "Make sure you bag that stuff." "Yeah, I am all over it." "Don't touch a thing." "Get out now." " Huh, I think I have some evidence back here." " Clear out now." "Hey." "The garage is packed with liquid explosive." "They are gonna detonate in place." "So grab what's important and get out now." "That means you too, Sarah." "Right now." "Fire in the hole." "Fire in the hole." "Sons of bitches." "I am gonna sue your ass into the ground, I hope you know that." "Yeah, I am gonna own you." "I am gonna own this whole place." "In fact, maybe that's where I live." "I am just going to move in here." "Let me guess, he lawyered up." "The guy's stopped talking after we told we blew up his house." "What about the wife and son?" "They are still in play, how much longer is anybody's guess." "But we need something more to go back at them with." "Well I think at this point we can agree that the murder weapon was a knife." "These are pictures of a box of knives that I was unable to recover from the Durbin garage." "So how about the tool marks?" "I cast the step marks of the victim's ribs." "Bond deterioration removed all the individual characteristic." "The best we can do was ruled out the serrated blade." "Hey, what about the kid's videos?" "Oh, no tape of murder or body he dump so far." "I am not holding my breath." "Videos cover several years." "Keep running around the house, backyard barbecue kind of stuff." "You know, home movies." "A teenager boy with a shoe box full of home movies under his bed?" "It's weird I know, I am still looking." " Well we know Owen went to school with Travis Giles right?" " But that was a few years back and we still can't place Travis at that house." "With all the fire damages, the clothes are the right size but I couldn't get any blood evidence off them." "Even if we've had that we still don't have a blood standard for Travis, I mean, we can't even positively ID a victim." "Miss Giles?" "Hi." "What can I do for you?" "I wasn't able to find a hairbrush or a toothbrush." "But the only thing I have left of Travis's is...this." "When he was little, I used to be his tooth fairy." "DNA from Travis Giles tooth matches the blood we found in your house." "And now are you going to tell us how they got there?" "I don't know." "Kids get hurt all the time." "They fall down, cut themselves." "Get nose bleeds." "Wait a minute, wait a minute." "What are you telling me?" "A kid that you'd never seen, a kid who's not even a friend of your son's?" "got a nose bleed in your house?" "Hum?" "You are lying." "You know we can make this quick cos I get enough to arrest you right now." "It was an accident." "Travis came over one night." "Said he wanted to buy a knife." "So I gave him a knife." "But he said he couldn't pay and tried to run." "He wasn't moving he was just lying there." "Knife stuck in him." "Now you're lying." "Don't you call my son a liar?" "Travis was stabbed twice." "That's not possible if he just fell on a knife." "So what happened?" "You pissed off?" "Getting a fight?" "Maybe call you a mum's boy?" " Or did you just wanted to see what if it felt like to stab somebody?" " Like I told you it was an accident." "Then why did you dump the body down the sewer in the middle of the night?" "He didn't." "He didn't do it alone." "We found the victim's charred clothing folded." "Kids don't fold anything, mothers do." "You helped him clean up the mess." "Yeah that's kind of funny because you are not much of a housekeeper." "If you talks to my mother like that again?" "I'll kill you." "Don't you say another word, baby." "I'll kill both of you." "I want a lawyer." "Well we really don't need a confession." "Well, the kid gets murder, mum's an accessory." "And dad gets felony explosives." "It's a family value pack." "What is appropriate, one way or another, they each had a hand in it." " Come on, Roger, do we have to?" " You just keep the camera on it, will you?" "Watch." "Violent environment." "oblivious mother, disturbed child." "Here, stir this." "What's it for?" "Blowing stuff up." "But you know, no matter how bad your kid turns out," "It never changes how you feel about them." "Unconditional love between parents and offspring is biological." "Perpetuate the species." "Go ahead." "That's good." ""CSI:" "Season 5 Episode 2 Down the Drain" -=End="
