"Oh, for cryin' out loud." "How much is Satan paying you?" "The church exercised their last option five years ago." "Nobody thought it would come to this." "Hello, Mike." "Where's Laura?" "Uh, she's still in the car." "I'll go get her." "Oh, Laura." " Sometimes I just can't stop." " I know, I know." "Everything all right, Ms. Hendrix?" "Yes, Connie." "Thanks." "Come on."

"Mr. Koehler, we're treating your wife for poisoning, but we don't yet know what she ingested." "Now, you told the nurse you think she attempted suicide." "Yeah, she's had a hard time lately." "We have a suspected poisoning." "Male, 73." "B.P.'s crashed." "Ipecac and lavage." "Let's get some blood." "I'm sorry." "Do you have any idea what your wife might have taken?" "No. / Doctor, there's an ambulance en route with another poisoning." " The patient's unresponsive." " Call St. Lucia's." " Tell them we might need to transfer..." " Somebody help me!"

"Her husband thought it was a suicide." "Then the others rolled in." "The common denominator's a meeting yesterday afternoon." "They served food and drink?" "Yes." "The reverend's wife was in charge of that." "One of the injured got this in the mail." "You caught yourself a live one." ""How much is Satan paying you?"" "So much for reasoned debate." "I bought the cookies from the island bakery." "I made the coffee and the iced tea myself in the kitchenette." "Didn't anyone help you?" "Some young girls from the parish." "Uh, the meeting, what was the controversy?" "The church is losing its lease." "The Channel Island trustees want to sell the land to a condo developer." "Well, the island isn't big enough." "I mean, there'd be no place for the church to move to." "That's right." "One of the victims got this letter." "I assume that she was for selling the property." "Yes." "Her husband, Rob, is a trustee." "I don't agree with them, but they're good people." "Uh, what about the other victims on this list?" "Where did they stand?" "George Tooley, he was for the sale." "Old Henry Leavitt, he was against." "Laura Koehler, I think she was against." "For, for." "Against." "So much for narrowing the field." "The lab found arsenic in 12 coffee cups retrieved from the trash." "All the tainted coffee had artificial sweetener, as did the stomach contents of the victims." "Someone could have steam-opened the packets of sweetener and then resealed them." "What about leftover packets?" "Any of them tampered with?" "No, but the poisoner might've picked them up at the end of the meeting." "The victims were on both sides of the issue." "The only thing they had in common was artificial sweetener." "The killer was targeting people on diets?" "Maybe not all of them were targets." "There's one victim whose life depended on avoiding sugar." "Laura Koehler." "She was a diabetic." "The one whose husband was pushing the suicide scenario." "Home of Michael  Laura Koehler Channel Island, New York Wednesday, May 21" "When you found your wife unconscious, you didn't suspect her diabetes?" "No, because she was always so careful." "And suicide was more likely?" "Had she tried before?" "No, but things had gotten very difficult for her lately." "We lost our son Brian in a drowning accident." "Oh." "That's right." "I remember seeing his photo in the newspaper." "It was four months ago." "Your son and two other boys, they were taking a boat to Hart Island." "There's..." "There's a lawsuit, isn't there, against the State?" "You and the other parents are suing over the 911 system?" "Brian tried to call 911 on his cell phone when the boat started sinking." "But those people, they never sent help." "Are you suing anyone else?" "McCarter's Marina." "That's where they got the boat from." "That rotted-out rowboat." "Can we see the documentation on the lawsuit?" "Help yourself." "You said that things had gotten difficult for your wife." "We got an offer to settle." "There was a lot of pressure." " From the other parents?" " Yes." "Brian could have been saved." "They all could have." "Is this your wife's handwriting?" " Yes." " Most of the notes are hers." "She was the driving force, wasn't she?" "She's the one that didn't want to settle." "Laura wanted them punished." "Anyone who had anything to do with Brian's death, she wanted them punished." "Like it's anybody's fault." "Those kids were stupid." "I mean, stealing a rowboat from the repair yard." "What did they expect?" " And the boat was behind that fence?" " Uh-huh." "It was takin' on water." "Saturday afternoon, you or any of the other guys go to St. Brendan's for the meeting?" "Saturday afternoon we spent scraping that sloop." "You know, this photo was taken the day after the drowning." "See these drag marks?" "They say the boys pushed the rowboat into the water from, well, I'd say right about here." "Yeah, but that boat wasn't here." "It was in the yard behind the fence." "Well, maybe it's a different boat." "No, it's the same boat." "The harbor cops found it." "That's Hart Island, huh?" "That's where they were heading." "On account of the cemetery." "Kids think it's fun to drink and carry on with the dead, the little heathen bastards." "This, uh, leaky rowboat... it would've started taking on water as soon as they set off." "There would've been three inches of water on the bottom... before they even reached the end of that dock." "I don't see why they kept on going." "I can't tell you how sorry we are, Mike." "Thank you." "You come over for dinner this weekend." "Well, you see how you feel." "Listen, Mike, about the settlement... we'd all feel better if it's unanimous." " We know how Laura felt..." " No, it's all right, it's all right, it's all right." "Just tell the lawyers I'll sign off." "It's fine." "Mrs. Koehler was... so nice to me, sir." "I know she liked you." "I passed the photos of the marina employees around." "No one saw them at St. Brendan's." "Well, they'd have been there if St. Brendan's had happy hour." "I ran their sheets." "Mostly drunk and disorderlies, bar fights." "Want me to stick a dart in him?" "No." "He's listening to the tape of the 911 call the kids made from the boat." "L-I need to see the boat." "We were storing it in case there was a trial, but I got word yesterday that the parties settled." "Someone worried the boat'll float away?" "Can't be too sure." "Last place we had it, someone tried to break in." "911." "What is your emergency?" "Our boat's filling up with water!" "You gotta send help.!" " What is your location?" " I don't know." "Off Channel Island, 200 yards." "It just started, and it started leaking in the front." "It's leaking like crazy!" " Sir, I need a location." " Channel Island!" "The front of the boat is filling up!" "Help us!" "We're sinking!" "We're gonna drown!" "Help!" "Those kids, two minutes in that freezing water, they were done for." "The wood along the seams has been rotted out." "This boat should've sank like a stone as soon as it hit the water." "And there's a kind of... residue... stuck in the cracks." "Um, uh, cake frosting... and something else." "It's white glue." "Someone patched the seams with a mixture of frosting and glue." "Wouldn't frosting dissolve on contact with water?" "That's why they used the glue." "It..." "It hardens." "It would protect the patches just long enough for the boat to get far from shore." "Too far to swim back." "Someone wanted it to sink." "They moved the boat from the repair yard, they patched it up, put it where the kids would find it, knowing that it would never be able to cross the sound." "Those kids were murdered." "Sabotage?" "Somebody killed our boys?" "Yes." "This person might have been worried the sabotage would be discovered... if your lawsuit went to trial." "We believe that's why Laura was killed." "Oh, God." "She didn't want to settle." "She wanted it to go to trial." "That's what you told us." "They were headed to the cemetery." "Do you know if they had any interest in Satanism or witchcraft?" "No!" "These were just average kids." "Maybe we could ask their girlfriends." "Brian wasn't seeing anyone in particular." "And John wasn't either." "He said these days it wasn't cool to go steady with any one person." "All right." "Thank you all for coming in." "The officer will show you downstairs." "I'd hate to think we put 'em through that for nothing." "Any luck tracing the arsenic?" "The lab can't match it to any commercial arsenic currently available." "I'm looking at Brian Koehler's autopsy." "He had gonorrhea." "So did his other two friends." "Now, what are the odds of three 17-year-olds... having the same sexually transmitted disease?" "Office of Medical Examiner Monday, May 26" "The gonorrhea of all three boys had the same D.N.A." "Could they have gotten it from each other?" "It's doubtful." "Autopsies showed no rectal or oral infection." "Well, they got it from the same girl." "Unless toilet seats and doorknobs are making a comeback." "Three boys with the same girl." "What if it was rape?" "They might have been murdered in revenge." "We need to find this girl." "She probably didn't file a rape complaint against any of the boys." "We would've heard about it." "The church meeting." "There were a couple of girls helping with the coffee and cookies." "I've known Tina and Carolyn since they were in the children's choir." "I'm sure they're not..." "I'm wondering what kind of kid would give up their Saturday afternoon for a church function." "You don't pay them, do you?" "No." "They volunteered." "Do they belong to a church group?" "Tina did until a few months ago." "She was an altar girl." "She helped with our youth outreach." " She had a child's devotion to God." " And that... that changed?" "She got the teenage blues, I guess." "She just stopped coming to church." "And that was around the time that the boys drowned?" "No, a few weeks before." "But now she seems her old self again." "Very happy." "Whatever was bothering her worked itself out." "I didn't see anybody mess with the food." "But I wasn't watching the whole time." "Okay, Tina." "That about covers it." "Mrs. Hale said that you had drifted away from the church for a while." "I did the same thing when I was her age." "You know, I just couldn't see what all that stuffhad to do with my life anymore, you know." "Is that what happened to you, Tina?" "I just needed some space." "Did something make you realize that?" "Nothing in particular." "Was it those boys drowning?" "Did you think that God didn't care?" "He let your friends die." "I didn't hang with those guys." "Why not?" "They're delta heads." "You know, like totally asleep up there." "There are three levels of sleep:" "Alpha, theta and delta." "That's like... deep sleep." "Where'd you learn that?" "I don't know." "Um..." "So what made you stop going to church?" "Did something happen to you, Tina?" "Something Brian and the other boys did?" " No." "I needed some space." " All right, that's enough." "Tina, you're excused." "Where did you get this idea that my daughter was raped?" "She would've come to us." "Has she seen a doctor in the last five months?" "She's been to the gynecologist." "What is it you want with my daughter?" "I see." "You're getting out of our house." "We're hiring a lawyer." "There is another way to connect her to the boys." "By law, doctors, including Tina's, have to report every case of gonorrhea to the Department of Health." "Yes, no doubt." "It worked exactly like you said." "Like you knew." "Okay." "I'll tell them."

"Kids told us they've participated in every type of sexual activity." "Group sex, you name it." "Everything except male-to-male contact." "The three dead boys were involved?" "Yes, very much so." "And Tina Walker?" "She wasn't infected, but she was named as a participant." "One of these circles is her." "You're looking at every parent's nightmare." "And maybe a breeding ground for three murders." "This is some little community." "You're not in trouble, Liv." "They just want to ask you..." "about the other kids who participated in the sex parties." "Liv, there were three boys involved with the sex parties." "Way more than three." "It was like a mad sex thing." "We want to know specifically about these three." "They ever force girls to participate?" "Nobody was forced." "You do it because your friends do it." "You want to be tight." "You don't want to be by yourself." "Afterwards, how did they... treat you?" "Were they nice or..." "They were mean." "Like you weren't anything important." "But what are you gonna do?" "Tina Walker and Carolyn James, did they have sex with them?" "They used to be really into it." "They stopped before the boys drowned?" "Uh-huh." "I think theyjust got sick of it." "Have you talked to Tina or Carolyn since?" "No." "They're tight." "We call them T.L.C., like "Three Lame Chicks."" "Who's number three?" "Claudia Goodman." "Island Kennel Channel Island, New York Thursday, May 29" "Yeah, I used to go to those parties, but I stopped." "I really don't like talking about it." "Your friends, Tina and Carolyn, did they help you decide to stop?" "No." "I just got control of myself." " Is that doggie vitamins?" " Supplements." "This one's for their joints, so they don't get arthritis." "You said that you got yourself under control." "I was wondering how you did that." "Well, uh, you relax and concentrate... and make a picture in your mind of what you want to happen." "That sounds so simple." "And when you were relaxed, did you count backwards from 100, or did you imagine going down an escalator?" "An escalator, yeah." "You have electric bug zappers." "You know, this technique, where'd you learn it?" "Did you read it in a book or..." "Uh, no, I just figured it out myself." "There's nothing up there." "I just like old barns." "Oh, my God." "What a little cutie pie." "Can I hold him?" " You like working with animals?" " Yes." "They don't use you like some people do." "We heard that the boys treated the girls like trash, especially Brian Koehler." "You girls must've hated him." "I don't hate anybody." "If I hated someone," "I'd be hating something in them that's a part of me." "Wow." "That's a great insight." "You know, a neighbor of mine named Syd comes up with great stuff like that all the time." "Old Mr. Syd Arthur." "You ever hear of him?" "No." "I'm joking with you a little bit, Claudia." "Siddhartha, it's a book." "Thanks." "He really is cute." "We need to take this to the lab." "It's antique flypaper." "The lab matched the arsenic in the coffee cups with the arsenic on the flypaper." "I thought they stopped using arsenic in flypaper." "In the late '70s." "The barn was older than that." "So was the flypaper." "So these girls, what, boiled the flypaper to get the arsenic?" "They might've had some help." "Claudia, what she said about hate, came straight out of this book." "Siddhartha." "I haven't thought about that book in 30 years." "What Tina said about the different stages of sleep, it's from this book about self-hypnosis." "They said they didn't get it from a book." "Well, somebody else probably did and passed it off as their original thought." "They didn't tell us because... they didn't want us to know about their clever friend." "Maybe this friend was clever enough to extract arsenic from flypaper." "And make a boat sink in the middle of Long Island Sound." "It's a small island." "Find him." "Home of REV." "MRS. Hale Channel Island, New York Monday, June 2" "Are you Conroy?" "Conroy Smith?"

"One of those post 9/11 erosions of civil liberties." "Yeah, we've got your whole reading list here:" "Hermann Hesse, Carlos Castaneda, Kahlil Gibran." "Just take from them what I can use." "I'm sure you do." "This stuff is worlds away from what your classmates are into." "Sex parties." "Those people are pathetic." "You didn't participate?" "There's no wrong in love, but... there was no love at those parties." "Just bodies using... and being used." "Excuse me." "Hey, you're forgetting your dinner." "What've you got in here?" "Weakfish, stripers." "Hey, you know, I guess since you don't party with those other kids, you spend a lot of time by yourself, huh?" "It's cool." "I'm content with myself." "You must have some friends." "Tina Walker?" "Claudia Goodman?" "I mean, it's thanks to them, we found you." "They told us things right out of these books, except they never read them." "You, on the other hand, you have read them." "In fact, in the last four years, you're the only person on the island who's checked both of these out from the library." "Probably the only person in the city." "You're busting my ass because I read books?" "Books are why my mother sent me to live with my uncle, so I could grow up in a house full of ideas, rather than toys and television." "She was looking after her special boy." "She tell you that?" "That you're special?" "My mother told me to expect great things from myself." "Hey, I..." "I caught a four-pound striper." "Great." "Everything okay?" "Sure." "Your nephew's an interesting kid." "He's well-read." "He's always trying to broaden his horizons." "He told us his mother does important work, and that's why he lives here with you." "My sister was 17 when she had him." "When he was 10, she left him here for a long weekend." "She never came back." "Last I heard, she was in Nevada." "Well, he's following in your footsteps, not hers." "Uh..." " powdered dental stone?" " It's Connie's." "He was using it to make casts of tire prints for one of his classes." "Uh, I have work to do." "Sure." "Um, we'll find our way back." "Thanks." "You want to go to class?"

"Oh, her husband was rumored to beJack the Ripper." "She poisoned him with arsenic she got...by using flypaper..." "boiling flypaper." "That's the one." "What has Connie been studying lately?" "We had a class yesterday afternoon." "When I came in, he was already on the computer, checking our database." " What specifically?" " Let me see." "He looked up cases of death from anaphylactic shock." "Allergic reactions." "He's learning." "This is not a sad moment." "There's no better moment than when you're setting something free." "Relax." "Think about that place where we're going." "You'll get there before we do." "This is nice." "One woman with a rare allergy nearly died... when her ex-husband smeared shampoo on her door handle." "I can't believe this is what kids are studying in school." "Well, at least they're learning about the history of allergies." "Richard III and strawberries." "And here's a real kiss of death." "A woman with a shellfish allergy went into shock... when her boyfriend kissed her after eating shrimp." "Shellfish." "I read that some arthritis medication... is made from shellfish." "Here." "Chondroitin sulfate." "Made from shellfish." "Available in pills and liquid form for pets." "Must be the same stuff Claudia was putting in the dog food." "Well, Claudia probably told him that we were talking to her." "Next thing, he's researching anaphylactic shock." "We should call her parents, see if she's allergic." "We'll do it on the way there." "She's up here!" "I got a pulse." "Chondroitin sulfate." "It's a suicide note." "She's taking the blame for the arsenic poisonings." "Little bastard." "Nobody put me up to anything." "I got the poison from the flypaper and put it in the sweeteners." "What did you do with the poison packets that didn't get used?" "Took 'em back after the meeting." "And you could tell which ones were poisoned, which ones weren't?" "Yes, okay?" "These people are such hypocrites." "Like being all holy, and they don't care if their kids are having orgies." "This is a whole different side of you, Claudia." "I thought you told us you didn't hate anyone." "I can show you any side I want." "None of it's real anyway." "It's just what's inside me." "And what's in her head is Connie Smith's regurgitated philosophies." "He conned her into taking the fall..." "She wrote the note confessing to the murders and then backed it up with a suicide attempt." "That's an almost insurmountable obstacle to convicting anyone else." "Is a search warrant asking for too much?" "For Mr. Smith?" "What's your probable cause?" "Hermann Hesse?" "All right, what about the other girls, Tina and Carolyn?" "Their friend admitted to poisoning the coffee that they served." "I can get you those warrants." "Home of Sam  Sharon Walker Channel Island, New York Wednesday, June, 4" "Is my daughter in trouble?" "I'm asking as a mother." "Yes, I think she is." "I found a fake I.D. Over at Carolyn's." "They changed their birth dates to make them 18." "They're running away." "The cops stop them with I.D.'s like this, they won't make them as runaways." "So leave Claudia to take the blame and hit the road?" "Doesn't sound like much of a plan." "Well, Connie's probably got the rest of the plan in his head." "I doubt they'd go anywhere without him." "Connie ever mention any travel plans to you?" "No, but we'll be moving soon." "We lose our lease at the end of the year." "You have any idea where you'll go?" "Well, there's no room for me at the parish in the Bronx, and Connie will be 18 in a few months." "It's very uncertain." "Well, maybe he'll stay around here." "I mean, after all, this is where his girlfriends are." "Girlfriends?" "I had no idea." " You're surprised?" " Well, Connie's shy." "I mean, he likes girls, and they like him." "They say he's a good listener." "But some of them told Mrs. Hale that he never so much as tried to kiss them." "Are these your bookmarks?" "That might be Connie." "He does that." "Prophet of Blood." "The Four Revelations." "The Book of Mormon." "He's only reading books about Mormonism." "Is he thinking of converting?" "I don't think so." "West to Utah:" "The Great Pilgrimage." "Utah?" "He's taking the girls to Utah?" "It's the home of hundreds of fundamentalist sects." "Breakaway groups, prophets." "I mean, Connie and the girls would hardly be noticed." "It's like the Manson family blending into the '60s California." "Can we use the phony I.D.'s and the sex parties... to have the girls declared persons in need of supervision?" "Would holding them keep him here?" "Well, he needs his admirers." "What's his hold on them?" "Sex?" "He offers the opposite." "No sex, no pressure." "They feel safe with him." "The question is... is how far will they go to make him feel safe?" "Holding Room Family Court, Bronx New York, Thursday, June 5" "It's about time." "Where's that shrink?" "He won't be here for another hour." "Hey, don't worry about it." "We can put the time to good use." "I have a couple of questions for your daughters about Connie Smith." "Who's he?" "Is he another one of those boys you think might have..." "Their relationship had nothing to do with sex." "Isn't that right?" "It was on a higher level." "Right, girls?" "Hey, I gotta tell ya." "Connie's in big trouble." "Claudia, she took the rap for the church poisonings, but he still has to account for the drownings." "You don't think our girls had anything to do with that?" "We think it was just Connie." "He was jealous of those boys." "But we'd like to know what he said to your daughters." "He didn't say anything." "He didn't do it." "You know what?" "He's lucky, because if it weren't for Claudia, he'd be facing the death penalty." "She saved his life." "You just take a good look at this girl, and you can see the depths of her devotion to him." "He has to know that she's his one true friend." "Probably the only friend he has left." "Connie didn't make those guys drown." " I did." " Tina, shut up." "Hey, that's okay." "We don't believe her." "It's true." "I told them to meet me on Hart Island for a party." "I messed with that boat." "I put stuff in the cracks, so it wouldn't sink right away." "That's not gonna fly." " I can prove it." " Not another word!" "I will not let you throw your life away for some little freak!" "He's not a freak!" "He knows things!" "More things than you do!" "He's special." "He showed us how we can be happy and control our life, and he never asked us for anything." "I can prove I did it." "You go to my dad's tool shed." "You'll see." "I want to see this alleged statement against my client." "All in good time." "I'm warning you, Mr. Carver." "I won't put up with any tricks." "How'd the booking go?" "He was a perfect young gentleman." "That's what everyone says." "Mr. Smith, we're here to discuss a plea agreement... on three counts of murder by drowning." " I didn't kill anyone." " Hold on." "I want to see that statement." " What statement?" " One of the girls gave you up." "There's nothing to give up." "I didn't do anything." "What you didn't do yourself, you told them to do." "I never told anyone to do anything." "Which one do you think gave you up..." "Tina or Carolyn?" "Neither of them would say anything against me." "Why?" "You're not allowed to speak against the prophet?" " I'm nobody's prophet." " No, see, they think you are." "They think you're teaching them to, well, control their world, you know." "But the joke is on them, right?" "I can't teach anyone anything." "No, you just listen." "Is that right?" "All these kids, you know, taking drugs, uh, drinking, having the sex parties, while you just wait with your little fishing rod, and you hook whatever damaged goods comes out of the pit." "Their parents made them what they are." "I didn't do anything." "And when those girls wanted to hurt those mean boys who debased them," " then you did something." " No." "You exploited their anger." "And after you helped them kill, you exploited their fear." "Mr. Carver, if I don't see that statement," " we're not continuing." " You walk out that door," " any chance of a plea bargain goes with you." " Come on." "Just tell me which one, Connie." "Tina or Carolyn?" "Look, I don't kill for myself." "And for sure I wouldn't kill for them." "There's nothing in it for me." "There's admiration, because special people like admirers, and... and you're special." " Well, aren't you, Connie?" " I'm not..." "I'm not that special." "Well, I think you made yourself special." "I think that's the lie you told yourself to explain why your mother ditched you." "No." "That's not reality." "My mother has important work." "Like cleaning motel rooms in Laughlin?" "Well, here's her number, if you want to call her." "Oh, look, look!" "Bing!" "Reality!" "People leave you." "Your mother, soon your uncle." "I don't let that stuff bother me." "Oh." "I've got myself." "The rest of the world can just fade away." "I don't care." "'Cause you're all alone, like a star in the heavens, overcome by an icy despair, but more firmly yourself than ever." "Isn't that what you're tryin' to tell me?" "You see, unlike the girls, you know, I've read the book, so don't try and con me." "The reason you only have yourself is 'cause you have no choice." "And you don't trust anyone." "And this is why." "There's nothing on that piece of paper." "I know who I can trust." "Come on!" "You were bringing the two girls to Utah, right?" "'Cause if one of'em betrays you, then you still have the other one." "Those things don't happen to me." "No?" "Well, they happen to every prophet." "And if you learned anything from reading these books, you should've learned that." "No one betrays me." "Come on." "Tina or Carolyn?" "No one betrays me." "Think again!" "We got the smoking gun." "The smoking... caulking gun." "The one used to patch up the boat." "The one that still has traces of cake frosting and glue on it." "You ready to answer that question now?" "It can't be." "I told her to clean it off." "Come on.!" "Answer.!" "Tina or Carolyn?" " What'd you do to her?" " Answer!" "It's..." "It's..." "Tina." "Tina!" "All right?" "It's Tina!" "She was mine!" "What did you do to her?" "Well, it's like the book says:" "That every sin carries grace within it." "Ouch." "You took her from me." "You took her from me." "I should take this thing and beat your brains in with it... 'cause that's what you deserve, what you all deserve!" "There's more just like her, ready to crawl out of that pit... and come at you with knives... 'cause that's what you deserve." "That's what you deserve." "That's what you deserve!" "Get off me.!" "Get off!" "Arraignment Court Part 22 Friday, June 6" "The defendant is remanded to the custody of the Department of Correction, pending completion of a sentencing report." "Next case." "People v. Christina Walker and Carolyn James." "Murder in the second degree, six counts." "Connie!" "Connie!" "You'll be okay!" "You be quiet, young ladies.!" "We told them what happened." "We told them we did it." "Me and Carolyn, we killed those pigs." "We love you, Connie." "Bailiff, will you take these people out and bring in the next case?" "We're the only reality." "The reality's inside us, right, Connie?" "He didn't look too happy." "Reality caught up with him." "Reality catches up with everybody."
