"And I could tell she was dead the second I saw her." "And, um, I just don't get it." "We're not used to things like this happening in this neighborhood." "I just can't believe there was anybody that...." " Hey, how you doing?" " Hey." "So, do you know this girl?" " No." "So sad." " Anyone else been around here?" "Oh, yeah, my uncle George.... he lives across the street...." "he was here." "His wife Arlene called the police and then my sister Bonnie came over with the twins."

" Ma'am, right this way." " You want to run that tape back 10 feet?" " Yes, sir." "How long do you think she's been trampling on the crime scene?" "Too long." "No obvious blood." "Lots of trauma." "Look at her knees." "Toes are scraped." "There's no drag marks." "No rigor." "It's probably under two hours." "It didn't happen here." "Want to wait for Crime Scene before you start dicking with the body?" "It's going to rain." "I will go run tape and try to keep this thundering herd off the rest of the evidence." "Hey, princess." "Go get me a tarp." "She's fucking sitting on a pile of pissants." "Yeah." "What's that?" "Gray fiber?" "Any of you clowns call Crime Scene?" "Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee;" "blessed art thou amongst women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus..." "Brian."

"Every time I go...." "How you doing, Lucie?" "I am all right." "You and I both know she's on probation." "What's she doing out?" "She don't come home from school." "So what you're telling me is you want her to come home right after school, right?" "Yeah, of course." " You hear that?" " Yeah, I heard it." "All right, I am going to be coming by here from time to time, make sure she's home, okay?" "I can call you when she doesn't show up." "You don't need to be wasting your time on us, Officer Brian." "Come on, honey." "Supper's on." "Mike." "Just wait over here by the car." "Don't move." "You been warned, princess." "Come on, ladies." "Let's go." "I told you." "Let's go home." "Come on." "Hey." "Come on, everyone." "Move." "You got a wife and two kids, boy." "Come on up here, guys." "Against the truck, please." "Come on, keep going." "Keep going." "What'd I do?" " What'd you just say?" " What'd I do?" "So, were you waiting in line for a blow job or giving them?" "ID." "You, too, dipshit." "Now, why don't I call personnel at the plant, have you move on down the road?" "Nah." "I like it here." "What you doing, brother?" " Just taking out the garbage." " Mm-hmm." "This one here.... that's Lucie's son." "Yeah, he's probably banging her, too." "Go on inside." "What, your daddy drop you on your fucking head or something?" "Get in." "If it gets bad around here, you call me, okay?" "Come on in the house now, baby." "You come on in the house now." "Come on."

"Yeah, real soon." "I am going to call this in to your duty officer because, listen, hon, I could really use your help around here." "Yeah, Pam, I can't do that." "How come?" "We got a homicide of our own over here." "Female, blonde, well-dressed?" "Female, probably a street kid, dark hair." "Oh, come on, now." "Why don't you leave the early work to that ace detective partner of yours and help me out?" "After all, he is the best." "There ain't a woman in the world who don't love how I do it, sugar." "Okay?" "So, now, don't try phoning our chief, trying to pull some strings and all that other kind of horseshit." "Take me off speaker." "Pam." "Would you request your partner not continue to be the asshole he was when I was married to him?" "They're just going to refuse you permission." "Because of last time." "I cannot go into your jurisdiction again Your captain's going to call my captain, and he's going to unload about how many hours and money they spent on me working on other counties' cases." "Listen, Bri, this is looking like a real stinker." "We just located the car." ""Where?"" "It's in the fields." "All right, right now what you have is a missing person." "If you find a body... if you find a body, you call me right away." "Thank you, hon." "See, my daddy always said, Sometimes you get;" "sometimes you get got." "I will let you suss out what just happened to you." "Clark County Sheriff's Office..." " This is the area where six bodies..." " Come on, boy." "...Since 1970 have been found." "Easy." "Damn it." "Say it ain't so." "Ma'am, can I see some ID?" "Can I see some ID, please?" "Why, yes, Officer, of course." "By the way, you the one selling tickets here?" "Because I'd sure as hell like to buy one." "Detective Stall." "You think maybe you could do me a little favor and get every asshole off my crime scene right now?" "While you're at it, why don't you go ahead and make a list of everybody whose footprints, fingerprints, tire prints, and hoof prints I might find on top of the real goddamn evidence?" " Back up."

"We're in there the other night and there's no women there and it's just dudes, and they're all from North Carolina." "How'd you know they all from North Carolina?" "Well, they know Sparta, Winston-Salem, Boone." "So anyway, there's no women there." "So I said, "Let's play cricket."" "Cricket?" "Ain't no cricket in North Carolina." "Oh, yes, there is." "Cricket's a game they play in England." "You got to be rich or a fag to play it." "I am talking crickets and darts, man." "Come on." "Then you should have said "darts.""

"I ain't asking him for no money." "Because I don't want to have to run you in as an accessory." "Detective, you wouldn't be talking to me that way if we was in a white neighborhood."

"Go do it." "Look, what did I do?" "Huh?" "What did I do?" "You know you're never alone?" "There's always someone looking out for you." "Now, who's that, hmm?" "God?" "Now, you see, God's too busy for me." "I figured it out." "Everybody's always, you know, busting his balls all the time.... you know, "Give me this." "I want that." He ain't got time for little people." "Not me." "Is that what you think?" "You all right?" "Yeah." "Why don't you run in and get some of that milk of magnesia stuff?" "Here, let me give you some money." "I am going to stay here and make a phone call, okay?" " Yeah." " I will be waiting for you." "Jim, it's Brian." "Jim, no, I just want to know when the line is up." "All right." "Will you let me know as soon as you are?" "Pam, it's Brian." "You get any prints off what we found?" "All right." "All right, bye." "Excuse me." "A little girl just came in here." " Did you see her?" " I don't know." " I heard some kids fighting." " Anne?" "Might be in the bathroom in the back." "Anne?" "Your security cameras up?" "Haven't worked in weeks." "Anne?" "Anne." "06 to base, I got a possible abduction at Jim's Convenience Store." "Will you send some cars?" "Base to 7-Ida-07." "Go ahead, base." "We can't raise 06." "Just try Brian at his residence." "Tell him we're set up at the garage." "7-Ida-03 to 7-Ida-07." "03, go ahead." "Yeah, we got a green Pontiac doing the block here." "He's been by us three times already." " All right, give me the plate." " It's not our guy, 07." "It is Texas 89 Juliet Romeo 623." "They have left the area." "Is that thing decked out with custom wheels and dent in the rear?" "10-4." "Well, they just changed the plates." "All units, our boys are going to be back in the hood." "7-Ida-07, 10-4." "They're back on the set." "07 to all units, just stand by for my signal." "Leave a message." "Mike?" "I think they snatched Little Anne." "I need you and your dog out here." "I am midway between the Taylor crime scene and the poachers' camp." "Damn it." "Base, I need you to raise my partner." "Base to 7-Ida-06." "Base to 7-Ida-06." "Base to 7-Ida-07; 06 not responding." "I want them to enter the garage before we take them." " Is that one of our two ladies?" " Yeah." "It's the old one, I think." "She's heading east, coming your way." "07 to 03, what's her 20?" "03 to 07, passing by your location with a shopping bag right now." "Ahh." " Ow, ow." " Stay down." "It's okay." "Help's coming." " My legs." "Look at my legs." " Stay calm." "Look at me." "Stay calm." "Sheila." "There... that driver, that car." "07 to all units, suspect's vehicle has hostage." "I got a civilian with burns." "Come on, get here." " Stay here." "It's okay, I am here." " Help me." "Help me." "Deal with her." " Let me the fuck out." " Shut the fuck up, bitch." "Shut up." "07 in pursuit, green Pontiac." "Get off my ass." "Shit." " What the fuck is this shit?" " I got this shit." "What the fuck?" "We got shit." "Get back in the fucking car, man." "What the fuck are you doing?" "This is motherfucking bad." ""Fuck."" "Motherfucker." "Mike, listen, I think they snatched Little Anne." "I need you and your dog out here." "I am midway between the Taylor crime scene and the poachers' camp." "Hey." "I had her at a convenience store." "She didn't come back out." "I went in... signs of a struggle." "Phone company says this is where the phone call to us originated from." "So, I come from the biggest clusterfuck of my career to come look at a map and mud." "The body was found right over there." "This is where Pam found the latest girl." "These are other body recovery sites." "This bayou we're standing in right now connects every single one of those sites." "It's right here." "I am in this shit, too." "Yeah, you be Big Billy Badass." "That don't make you hard." "You still be a bitch in my book." "That's not what I am trying to say, nigga." "Then what you saying?" "You don't shoot no laws." "You got to discriminate." "I do whatever the fuck I want." "I even do you like that, you get in my way." "You'd pull a gun on me?" "That's it our friendship just died right then." "Get your toy, "nigga"." "See, you hard, you pull that trigger." "Brian." "Brian, over here." "She's alive, she's alive." "I have got a pulse." "It's okay, it's okay." "We will get you out of here." " God damn it." " Hang in there, hang in there." " Go, go." " All right." "Come on." " There we go." " Get her out of here." "Brian, don't do nothing stupid." "Now, we got two fugitives." "They kept her alive, because they're coming back for her." "No." "Get out of my way." "Damn it." "What do I tell Gwen?" "She already knows." "Come on, Lee." "Alex." "Stay here with the ambulance." "I am going up ahead." " I want an update in 15." " Yes, ma'am." "Where?" "Where am I going?" "He's here." "Follow this bayou." " All right." "Okay?" " That fucking idiot took our dog." "My dog." "My dog." "Put your hands above your head." "Get down on your knees." "I said get down on your goddamn knees." " Ah." " Ah." " "Go." - "Go."" "Go." " Yeah?" " He's dead." "Who's dead?" "Who is this?" " He said he's dead." " He said Brian's dead?" "I think so." "You think so?" "Task force 3 to all units, prepare to copy." "Just received unknown caller, said 06 dead." "Repeat, said 06 dead." "No further information." "It's Brian's phone." "Yeah, hello?" "Brian, he just called your partner, he said somebody's dead." "Who is this?" "Who am I talking to?" "I am Brian's partner." "Who the fuck are you?" "How did you know I got a call?" "If you don't give me the right answer," "I am going to come fucking over there and find you." "The guy's using Kirsten Laine's cell phone." "You're up on the girl's cell phone?" "Yes." "Where'd the call originate from?" "It came from the tower on the west side, near the old bridge." "Okay." "Okay, you call me if he uses it again." "You hear?" "He said the killer's using the victim's cell phone." " Near that bridge." "Lucie's place." " Fucking knew it." "I knew it." "Take them." "Go." " Check this out, right here." " Wait." "Shh." "This way." "Give me the girl's phone number." "It's, uh, 5-8-7......... .......2-2-8-8." " You seen your sister?" " No." "Give me that." "Who's this?" " Put Lucie on the phone." " What?" "Put Lucie on the phone." "You asshole." " He's out there." " What'd he say?" " Who?" " He wants to speak to her." "Why Ma?" " Who wants to talk to me?" " Where's the keys?" "Where are we going?" "You want me to pack my bag?" "Where's the keys?" " What's going on, you guys?" " Where's the keys?" "Rhino?" "Rhino, where are we going, man?" "Hello?" " Ask them what they did to Little Anne." " What?" "Ask them what they did to your daughter." "Some.... somebody said, "Ask them what they did to your daughter."" "I didn't do nothing." "Rhino...." " He killed a goddamn cop." " Well, I had to." "This... this guy said, "Ask them...."" " Who.... who...." " Ma." "He killed Little Anne." "Ma, she's gone." "What are you saying?" "I am sorry." "Little Anne.... she ain't coming back." "She.... that's my baby." "He said she made the cops come around." " That's my little baby." " And he made me go with him," " but he did all the killing." " That's my little baby." "He made me, Ma." "Don't touch me." "That is my baby." "He made me." " Damn it." " Ah." "No......" "Do it." "We got him." " Do you want to look?" " No." "Anne?" "Anne?"
