"Let go of me!" "Leave me alone!" "Get off of me!" "(SCREAMS) Help!" "Somebody help me!" "Leave me alone!" "(SCREAMS)" "Hey!" "TYRES SCREECH" "Hey!" "Help." "Help!" "(DETECTOR BUZZES)" "Keys." "SCREAMING" "Leave me alone!" "No!" "Christopher." "He deserved it." "I want to talk about your parents." "It's OK." "Donna'll pick you up at 3:30." "Whatever." "No, not whatever!" "She'll be here 3:30." "Ben?" "So why is it we only get to hear of it now?" "Afternoon." "Just wait till you have kids." "Sort it out, and get back to me." "A paedophile's been released from prison." "He's gone back to live on the Bridgefield Estate." "Graham Fletcher." "He's been back a week." "A week?" "!" "Paperwork." "Do the public know he's there?" "Not yet." "What's his risk factor?" "That was all we got." "I'm getting him checked out." "We need to know these things!" "Emergency Services." "Police." "I seen a girl bundled into a car." "She was screaming." "I think she's been abducted." "Can you describe her, please?" "Young black girl." "He was a white man." "He pushed her into his car." "Silver car." "Do you have a registration number?" "I wrote down some of the number plate." "T-N-M..." "Where?" "Bridgefield Estate." "(PHONE) Paula." "999 call came in at 9:22." "How long before did this happen?" "I'm not sure." "A minute." "Two minutes." "So 9:20. 26 minutes ago." "Can you show me exactly where it happened?" "Over there." "The car came from here, and this is where she was pushed into the car." "You're absolutely sure?" "100 per cent." "I know what I saw." "She was screaming for help." "She's about 11, 12 years old." "I'm gonna need you to come in for an e-fit." "Kevin'll explain." "We need you to come down to the station." "I want Graham Fletcher's address." "(THUMPING)" "Graham Fletcher?" "Police." "Do you drive?" "What?" "Do you drive?" "Uh, yes." "What's going on?" "Search the whole place." "A child is missing." "You're known to have more than a passing interest in children." "Can you talk me through your exact movements this morning?" "Janita?" "Janita!" "Where is she?" "BABY CRIES" "Janita!" "All right, Ryan." "Mummy's coming." "No sign of the girl?" "What's this all for?" "I haven't done anything." "Look on it as an act of kindness." "It's easier if you're with us at the station." "Bridgefield Estate." "How long ago?" "Just over half an hour." "Witness called almost immediately." "We pulled in a local child sex offender, Graham Fletcher." "If he'd taken her, she would have been there." "The witness definitely saw this child being dragged into the car?" "She's given us some of the letters from the number plate." "No other witnesses?" "No." "All very quiet." "I think he just saw his chance." "Any ID on the girl?" "Her parents probably don't know she's missing." "Good description, though." "Young Black girl, 11 or 12." "Black coat, white collar." "Abductor, White male. 40s." "Right." "Call an Amber Alert immediately." "We can't afford to waste any time." "Sure?" "You wanna wait for a body." "It's the appropriate response, it fits the criteria." "Forced abduction of a child in danger of death or serious harm." "Every resource we have, throw at it." "Keep me fully informed." "Do you know where Tony Hill is?" "No." "Bring him in." "We need to know what the abductor is thinking." "Don't take no for an answer." "Sir." "I don't know why I killed them." "I just had this feeling Mum and Dad had to die." "Did you love them?" "I couldn't have." "If I did, I wouldn't have killed them." "Not necessarily." "You'd be amazed how many people have murdered through love." "Get away from me!" "Get away from me!" "Christopher, Christopher..." "When was the first time you were taken into care?" "What are you gonna try and do this time?" "Dr Hill?" "Phone call." "It's urgent." "I'll be right back." "I love the arrogance that whatever you're doing is more important than my patient's mental health." "Tony..." "I have a boy here whose life is in crisis." "So do we." "Look, I've sent a car." "Apologise from me to your patient, but I need you to get in that car now." "May I ask why?" "We've called an Amber Alert." "OK." "Who authorised the Amber Alert?" "Morrison." "He wanted you involved from the outset." "Time's of the essence." "The abduction took place at 9:20." "Nearly an hour ago." "We're moving as fast as we can." "It was witnessed by a woman, Carmen Garcia in her early 30s." "Good eyesight?" "She's been very specific." "She's given us part of the registration." "Brought her in to do an e-fit." "Good." "She's 11 or 12." "A stranger abductor will be in the system, so make the Sex Offenders' Register a priority." "I already have." "We've pulled in the closest paedophile to the abduction site - Graham Fletcher." "What's his predilection?" "Boys?" "Girls?" "We don't know." "We only found out he existed this morning." "Great." "The system's down." "Boys or girls?" "I was wrongly convicted." "I've never met a sex offender who wasn't." "We need to know what you were convicted of - boys or girls?" "So, you were in prison for something you didn't do?" "That's right." "You didn't interfere with any girls?" "No." "And you didn't interfere with any boys?" "No." "It was boys." "That micro-expression between the eyebrows." "There's no point in lying." "Your facial muscles tell the truth." "Guv, he had 5,000 images of child pornography on his computer, but all boys." "Yeah, we know." "We're there." "Can I go?" "At your own risk." "The public doesn't make the same distinction we do - boys or girls." "To them you're just a paedophile." "When this hits the news, which it's just about to," "I think you would prefer to be here." "Just keep digging in the Register." "His name will be there, if we have time, and the stats aren't against us." "What are the percentages?" "Survival rate of children abducted by strangers... 44 per cent die within the first hour," "74 per cent die within the first three." "Only one per cent survive more than a day." "10:30, so that's one hour, five." "Let's hope she wasn't one of the 44 per cent." "Where's your witness?" "In the last hour Bradfield Police have issued an Amber Alert after an unidentified 11-year-old black girl was seen being abducted in the Bridgefield Estate area at 9:20 this morning." "A witness reported that a white man dressed in a suit, and driving a silver Ford Fiesta car approached the young girl outside the shopping area of the estate, pushed her into the vehicle, and then drove off at speed." "Bradfield Police are appealing to the public for assistance in identifying the girl..." "Janita... ..and is likely to have been on her way to school." "I've said all this before." "You've told me, but Dr Hill needs to hear it from you." "When she was being pushed in the car, what did she say?" "(SPEAKS SPANISH) She was screaming." "Yes, but what was she screaming?" "That's very important." "She was shouting, "Get off me!" "Help!" "Leave me alone!"" "So, she was shouting, not screaming?" "Both." "Was she resisting?" "Yes, of course!" "She was struggling, and..." "(SPEAKS SPANISH)" "Kicking, kicking." "She was kicking." "Get off me!" "Leave me alone!" "(SCREAMS)" "You don't believe me, do you?" "You think I'm making this up." "We do believe you." "We just haven't got a lot of time to get this right." "You see, the safety of this little girl is paramount, and every detail you remember helps us ensure she isn't harmed." "I wouldn't want to be the only witness here." "You're a good witness." "You, and you alone are our eyes and ears on that street." "You didn't know this girl, did you?" "No." "Tell me about the man." "Not young." "Respectable looking." "White." "White?" "You sure?" "I know a white man when I see one." "OK, white abductor, black girl." "Normally, white men abduct white girls." "We're checking to see if any similar abductions happened anywhere else." "Whoever she is, she's out alone." "Not at school." "Why not?" "Anything found at the scene?" "Yeah, an earring." "We have an ID on the girl." "A woman reported her 11 year old missing." "Black girl from Bridgefield Estate." "The name is Janita Mestone." "We know where the abduction took place." "It gives us an 80 per cent chance of solving this." "Solving's not the same as bringing her back alive." "No." "Best chance of that is within the first three hours." "We have an hour and 35 minutes left." "How is she?" "Holding it together." "Maybe because she used to be a nurse." "Married?" "Re-married." "She's divorced from Janita's father." "Sorry." "Get yourself down to Janita's school so we can find out about her." "I just knew." "You do when you're a mother." "You just know." "What happened this morning, Celeste?" "Why wasn't Janita at school?" "She's not the strongest child." "She had another one of her colds, a bad one." "I didn't want her giving it to the other children." "So why was she out?" "I needed some bread from the shop." "Her little brother wasn't well either." "I asked Janita to go." "And now she's been taken." "It's my fault." "I didn't know, I didn't know." "Thank you." "Which shop did she go to?" "Mr Patel." "On St Ann's Road." "Do you know anyone with a silver Fiesta?" "No." "Would she get into a car with a stranger?" "Of course not!" "I've warned her." "What about her father, your ex-husband?" "He lives in Nottingham." "Was she the only child from your first marriage?" "I had twins." "Her sister Hester died when they were toddlers." "And Janita has gone too." "She will be all right?" "I'll die if she was...hurt." "We're doing everything that we can." "We're flooding all the TV and radio stations with the abduction alert." "In America, it saved hundreds of children." "The idea is to put as much psychological pressure on the abductor as soon as possible." "So if everyone knows and everyone's looking, they've nowhere to go." "They're more likely to set the child free." "It does work." "I need you to look at something." "Is this Janita's?" "I think so." "I think so." "OK, this has just been emailed down." "Is this her?" "Friends..." "She must have friends." "Any older ones who drive cars?" "She doesn't really mix." "She... ..gets bullied because she's not the strongest." "She does have one friend." "A boy." "Mikey." "Where does Mikey live?" "Somewhere on the estate." "We've had a positive ID on the girl that was abducted." "It was Janita." "(GASPS)" "Celeste, we need to be in touch with Janita's father, and we need you to tell your husband Barry." "Barry's at work." "I need him here." "She was here this morning." "She's a regular." "Today it was bread, milk..." "jam tarts, I think it was." "What, these ones?" "Yeah." "Do you know a boy called Mikey?" "I don't know names, just faces." "Is that thing timed?" "Yeah." "Barry, you're here!" "My baby!" "I know, I know." "(SOBS HYSTERICALLY)" "SIREN" "Any response yet?" "Disappointing." "An increase since she was identified, but nothing concrete." "We're supposed to be overwhelmed." "And the car?" "Swansea should process it within half an hour." "What takes them so long?" "Her teacher says she's a quiet girl." "Bit of a loner." "Attendance record's not great because of poor health." "None of the kids really seem to know her at all." "Certainly didn't recall her as having any older friends with cars." "Hopefully she'll be compliant." "That's what she needs to be." "Did they mention a boy called Mikey?" "No." "Get back onto them, see if it rings any bells." "Sex offenders?" "We're still looking indoors." "What about that e-fit?" "Still working on it." "Get onto them." "We need it now." "Janita's father is on his way from Nottingham." "He's a policeman." "A detective sergeant." "He'll know if we bullshit him." "Dr Hill, there are no other white male-black girl incidents recorded." "OK, thanks." "Thanks." "Why was it an Amber Alert and not a Red Alert?" "Because Amber isn't a colour." "She was a young Texan girl." "Amber Hagerman, kidnapped and murdered in 1996." "After she was found, someone rang the Dallas radio station and wondered why they were putting out alerts for severe weather, and not child abductions." "Bearing in mind that 4,500 children a year get abducted in America by strangers, I think they had a point." "Sadly, not all 4,500 of them turn up alive." "What are your thoughts?" "This is your composite abductor." "27 years old, unmarried, socially inept, criminal record." "People will think of him as strange." "Mrs Garcia said he was in his 40s." "Exactly." "Things'll change." "This is your average child abductor." "As they get older, they may well be married, or in a relationship." "She said he wore a suit." "So we know he has a job." "Maybe the colour isn't important." "Maybe he's done this before." "The closer we get to his first offence, the closer we get to where he lives." "But is he local or is he coming from outside?" "There is a boy she was friends with at school." "Mikey Adams." "We're trying to find him." "What can I tell the lunchtime bulletins?" "The facts." "Tell them more about Janita." "We're already running a photograph from CCTV." "Hopefully someone else will have seen her." "We're still waiting for the e-fit." "He's local." "Local knowledge." "Has to be." "Can I run with that?" "Yeah, I think you can." "The Bridgefield Estate is too dense, too complex for someone to be chancing this." "Look." "Look where the motorway is." "They have to know where the abduction point is, but, more importantly, an abductor with a screaming child." "They have to know how they're gonna get away." "So local or local knowledge..." "It has to be." "Time, please." "Half an hour till our chances go down to 26 per cent." "The hair is about right, yeah?" "No." "Darker." "There is also something not right about his mouth." "Swansea have come through." "2,000 silver grey Fiestas with TNM in the number plate." "How many have them as the last three letters?" "When you look at a plate, those are the letters you unconsciously look at first." "About 400." "Narrow that down with the local prefix." "(SIGHS) 250." "Any cross-reference with known sex offenders?" "No, I've checked." "Stolen car?" "Hasn't been reported." "A daylight abduction is not a first offence." "He'll be in your system somewhere." "It's opportunistic." "The opportunity presents itself." "He takes advantage." "False plates?" "Well, if it is, it changes things." "Makes the search for his victim more deliberate." "It's planned." "He's gone out hunting." "In a suit?" "Suit..." "BEEPING" "Three hours." "Can I print this?" "Not yet." "Darken the eyes." "If he's capable enough to be in a job with a suit, he would not be an abductor." "White-collar paedophiles get themselves in positions of trust, then abuse the power." "Maybe he used it to lure her, like women who pretend to be social workers." "Maybe he said he was a policeman." "Common in America." "Two guys in a car come across some kids, but they don't show a badge, they show handcuffs." "But in this case, he was on his own." "So what motivates you?" "This whole thing, it just conflicts and conflicts." "Maybe he gets turned on by black skin." "She's done it." "This...is him." "Paul?" "Did you get the job?" "They'll let me know." "You were ages." "Yeah." "I got the car cleaned, and then I went up the allotment." "Better get changed." "Are you OK?" "Yeah, sure." "Bastard." "Somebody knows him." "I want his face on every news bulletin, across the Internet, and the front pages of every evening newspaper." "Somebody's nicked him." "Kevin, get his picture on the walls of every station in Bradfield." "Someone somewhere's gonna recognise him." "We've run it against the mug shots." "No match." "Are you sure?" "I thought you said he would be in our system." "If he's a stranger abductor, he will be." "If he isn't?" "Isn't what?" "If he's not a stranger." "The man who dragged her into the car was someone she knew." "A prior relationship?" "Certainly less likely to have a previous conviction." "Which would explain why she didn't run." "Makes sense." "If she knew him, why did he have to force her into the car?" "How the hell do I know?" "He goes up, he says, "Hi"." "She says, "Hi"." "He says, "Get into the car." She says, "No, I've got to go home."" "He starts to insist, she gets scared." "Runs." "And he gets out and drags her in." "That is not the timeframe described by your witness." "She says he was out of the car and bundling her in, almost as soon as he pulled up." "That doesn't mean to say she didn't know him already." "OK, it's a possibility." "If she does know him, at least it increases her chances of survival." "Guv?" "The head teacher." "That boy Mikey, the only kid she's close to, they can't find him." "He hasn't shown up at school today either." "They've sent down a jpeg." "This is him." "Mikey Adams." "Could he have been in the car?" "Would that have affected her behaviour?" "Mr Mestone." "(SHOUTING OUTSIDE)" "When did you see her last?" "A month ago." "We agreed every fortnight, but it's difficult arranging shifts, you know." "How was she?" "Did she seem troubled by anything?" "No." "Same as usual." "She was happy." "We usually have a good time." "Tina Adams?" "All right, love, we're looking for Mikey." "He's at school." "No, he's not." "Mind if we come in?" "Whatever." "Go on, go ahead." "Go on." "You won't find anything in here." "Go on." "You won't find anything." "We need to talk to him." "One of his friends is missing." "I told you he's not here." "What time did he leave?" "Or weren't you conscious?" "(SIGHS)" "Where does he go, Tina?" "Their last birthday together." "They were three." "How did she die?" "Sudden Infant Death Syndrome." "Both of my girls could be dead." "Not necessarily." "We're doing everything we can." "What happened after Hester's death?" "What the hell has that got to do with anything?" "!" "My daughter's been snatched off the street, and you're asking me about something which happened eight years ago?" "!" "Why aren't you out there?" "Someone's gotta be here asking you questions." "You know how it works." "You're a policeman." "Look, Lenny, Janita's been missing for nearly five hours." "You don't need me to tell you what that means." "But the more you can tell me about her - her personality, her mental strength - the more I can assess what sort of person took her, and her chances of survival." "Now, you may not think the death of her twin has any bearing on this, but when Janita was three, she lost the other half of her." "We over-compensated." "We wrapped her in cotton wool." "(SOBS) Oh, they should have been looking out for her." "What was she doing, sending her out on her own?" "What was she thinking?" "So, you don't have good relations with your ex-wife?" "I'm out the door, and within six months she's shacked up with this Barry." "What do you think?" "You found it difficult leaving your child in the care of another man?" "No." "I found it difficult leaving her with a man who's got a conviction for assault." "Barry Davis was convicted of assaulting his first wife when he lived in Wales." "He hit her with a chair." "Violence against women?" "Doesn't make him a paedophile." "Do we know paedophilia's the motive?" "What else would the motive be for stranger child abduction?" "It's sexually motivated." "Known forced abductor." "Sexually motivated..." "Unless..." "Unless he was doing it to get at his wife Celeste." "Damage the thing that's closest to her?" "But the e-fit isn't Barry." "Maybe he got someone else to do it." "When are you doing the appeal?" "Within the hour." "Sit Barry next to Celeste, fire some questions at him, see how he reacts under pressure." "Did you find Mikey Adams?" "Mother was smacked out of her head." "Did all the likely places." "There's no sign of him." "And... what was his room like?" "Usual boy's." "No, compared to the rest of the house." "Was it tidy or untidy?" "Tidy." "No, you're looking in the wrong place." "What about the appeal?" "Record it, and I'll check it later." "This Mikey might be the key." "Thanks." "Janita's personality would allow for two types of friendship." "Either she's in a friendship where she's the fetcher, carrier." "The dogsbody to a more confident, outgoing person." "That person would go shopping in the high street." "No, they don't care." "They've got bedrooms that parents scream about." "Or she's in an equal friendship with someone just like her." "She lives over there." "Where does he live?" "He's close to home." "I told you he's not here." "That's what you think." "What was it Janita bought, apart from the milk?" "There was bread..." "Jam tarts." "Jam tarts." "He's here somewhere." "I need an area sealed off in Bridgefield Estate." "I want all units on the lookout for a Michael Adams." "I just want her back." "I want her safe." "It could just be a coincidence." "You don't really believe that, do you?" "Maybe he found her shopping, kept it and ate it." "What makes you think this is his?" "Mikey." "Here." "Didn't burn my uniform till I left school." "Mikey?" "Mikey, stop!" "Mikey!" "Come here." "Mikey, we just want to talk to you." "Police!" "Slow down, Mikey." "Stop!" "Mikey!" "It's all right." "We're not gonna hurt you." "We're Bradfield Police." "We just want to talk to you, OK?" "It's all right." "It is Mikey, yeah?" "She's my baby." "I'll see you later." "WOMAN:" "OK." "I'm sorry." "It's all right." "I want her back." "I don't know how much longer I can carry on." "I'm sure you can appreciate how difficult this is for Mrs Davies, so if you have any questions, maybe you can direct them to her husband." "I have also circulated an e-fit amongst you." "This is the man we want to speak to in connection with Janita's disappearance." "If you see him, do not approach him." "Contact the police immediately." "OK, so we know that you played in the car." "We found your fingerprints all over it." "And those were her jam tarts, weren't they?" "In the car?" "The ones that she bought before she was taken." "So, either you met her, or you found her shopping." "Which one is it, Mikey?" "We know that she was taken off the street." "What do you know about that?" "Have you ever seen this man?" "Who is he, Mikey?" "(PHONE RINGS)" "Geoffries." "He's hiding something." "Have you seen how he rocks in his chair?" "Yeah, he knows something." "Or he has done something." "But what's he capable of?" "From the writing in his book, he has the mental age of an eight year old." "How was Barry at the appeal?" "You're the psychologist." "Guv, initial forensics have found blood on his uniform." "Blood?" "Oh, please." "I'll tell her." "What?" "I'll pass you over." "Fielding." "POLICE RADIO" "How long?" "She's been dead for five or six hours." "Somewhere between ten and 11 this morning." "Another abduction victim within the first three hours." "How?" "Looks like a blunt trauma to the front-left side of the head." "Are you sure it's her?" "There's no doubt." "I hate statistics." "Will you come and help me tell the parents?" "What's up?" "I don't know." "Something's not right." "(SCREAMS)" "Lenny, Lenny, Lenny, Lenny!" "(SCREAMING CONTINUES)" "We failed." "That's the long and the short of it." "We tried to bring her back alive, and we didn't." "And here we are going home." "It's so unfair." "And that family won't sleep tonight." "Why should we?" "Right now, there's nothing more you can do, Alex." "Except take a step back, and think." "It doesn't make it feel any better, Tony." "No." "What was wrong with the body?" "Not sure." "Ask me tomorrow." "We just want her back." "She's my baby!" "(SOBS)" "I don't know how much longer I can carry on." "I know a white man when I see one." "Because of who he is." "I want to talk about your parents." "Why won't you talk?" "A man who's got a conviction for assault." "She does have one friend." "Tidy." "Do you have something to hide?" "He deserved it." "I don't know how much longer I can carry on!" "TV NEWS:" "Janita's mother Celeste Davies is being comforted by relatives, whilst a 13-year-old boy, believed to be a friend of the dead child, is helping police with their enquiries." "Bradfield Police have issued an e-fit of a man they want to question" "The papers are full of this face this morning." "I want every lead followed." "I want officers tracing the last 50 or so cars with TNM in the number plate." "We're not gonna let him get away, all right?" "Good." "She's dead, Mikey." "We found her body yesterday afternoon." "Was that her blood on your uniform?" "Was that why you tried to burn it, to get rid of the blood?" "This isn't a game, Mikey." "This is a murder enquiry." "Janita has been murdered." "And this..." "This is the guy who took her." "The numbers on the wrapper found in that wrecked car have been traced back to the manufacturers." "Those were the jam tarts that Janita bought." "We know you were playing in that car." "Yesterday morning, Mikey, what happened?" "How were you involved?" "Glad you could make it." "Oh, I watched the appeal." "What did you think of Barry?" "He showed no signs of masking." "All his responses to Celeste were consistent." "Think he's faking?" "It's possible." "Still not getting anything out of Mikey." "He needs to trust you." "What do you suggest?" "Trip to Alton Towers?" "No, no, no, no." "Look - thing about the body, it's not consistent with a stranger abduction." "What do you mean?" "There are inconsistencies, but you were right - stranger abductors don't care about the victim." "All they care about is sexual gratification." "I thought you said - I know what I said." "Look at these bodies." "See?" "All dumped like pieces of trash." "And now, look at Janita." "The way she's been laid out." "It's all neat and tidy." "It's almost caring." "Look - even her coat's been zipped up." "This doesn't happen when you've been snatched by a stranger." "Usually when bodies are like this, it means the person who killed her knew her." "Unless our killer is so clever, he disguises the way he lays out the body." "See, most of this..." "is inconsistent with this." "But this is the only fact we know." "When do we get the full post-mortem?" "Later on this afternoon." "What was the mode of death?" "She's been killed face-on by a right-handed attack." "She wasn't walking away, she wasn't grabbed from behind." "I mean, you couldn't sustain that injury." "Whoever killed her was talking to her at the time." "If she knew her killer... it's out of frustration." "Could it be Mikey?" "Yes." "If he was part of the abduction, he could have lured her." "We've had a call from a woman who saw the appeal." "She recognised Barry." "He's a client of hers." "Prostitute?" "He likes it rough." "You'd better check that appeal DVD again, see if you missed something." "Go and see her, get a statement." "Then let's bring him in." "We need to find out if Barry hits Celeste." "This is simpler than this." "It has to be." "Something in all of this is getting in the way." "No!" "Why can't you talk to him here?" "You can sit at the table." "I'll make you some coffee." "This is just routine." "I need him!" "I have to take Ryan to the doctor's." "We can organise a doctor." "You don't have to go anywhere." "BABY CRIES" "It's all right, love." "Come on, Barry." "Don't leave me." "We know where you picked up the prostitutes, Barry." "And we know what you like to do with them." "Did you ever hit Celeste in the same way as you hit your first wife?" "No." "I wouldn't do that." "Did you ever hit Janita?" "No, I never touched her." "Is it a tummy bug?" "Mm, I think so." "But he's also aware of what's going on, and the stress you're under." "So give him lots of fluids, and if you can get him outside, that would help." "How about you?" "What about me?" "I don't suppose you're sleeping." "I can't sleep." "Every time I close my eyes I see her face." "I don't want her to be dead." "How did you get those bruises?" "Barry and I were..." "I fell over." "Did you get a friend to abduct your step-daughter, Barry?" "What?" "!" "You're mad." "No!" "I never!" "No!" "No, it doesn't marry." "This half of the offence doesn't match the other." "See if this helps." "The post-mortem." "Is there any evidence of sexual interference?" "No." "Are you sure?" "Certain." "At last." "There were remnants of the jam tarts in her teeth, so either she was eating them with Mikey or she was forced to eat them." "Any bruising on her mouth?" "No." "There's no bruising?" "Can't be." "Just can't be." "Mrs Stringer?" "Yes." "We're making routine enquiries." "We believe you have a vehicle registered in your name." "A silver-grey Fiesta S838 TNM?" "Yes, my husband Paul's in it at the moment." "Why?" "What's the problem?" "Is that your husband?" "Yes." "Why?" "What is this about?" "We have an ID on the car and the man." "His name is Paul Stringer." "That's the car." "Control, this is Alpha Bravo 69." "We've sighted a silver Ford Fiesta outside Queenstown Secondary School." "What is it about the man, Mikey, that you can't tell us?" "It's the man that's causing me the problems." "You were her friend." "Yeah." "I need you to help me, Mikey." "FLETCHER:" "Dr Hill?" "Dr Hill?" "What is it, Mr Fletcher?" "I think I'd like to go home." "I'll pass it on." "Did you want sex with your step-daughter, but she wouldn't let you?" "I did NOT kill Janita!" "Maybe you didn't mean to." "We have an ID on the e-fit, and a sighting of the car." "Makes no sense - forced abduction, no bruising." "Even if it was a friend, there's no bruising." "Forced abduction, no sexual interference." "(EXHALES)" "White man..." "It was a white man." "What man?" "What if no man?" "SIREN BLARES Lost him!" "Try down there." "How long ago was this guy Stringer seen outside the school?" "Minutes." "Send every available car." "Swamp it." "This guy mustn't get away." "What do we do with Barry?" "Leave him." "He might be connected to Stringer." "RADIO:" "All units, proceed to the Queenstown area." "Be on the lookout for a silver-grey Ford Fiesta" "Sierra 838 Tango November Mike." "The driver's dangerous and has abducted a young girl." "What's happening?" "The man who killed Janita was seen cruising outside a school." "Are you sure?" "Stringer has no previous convictions, not even a parking ticket." "No obvious connections to her." "You were right - stranger abduction." "Alex, I don't think she was abducted." "Tony, I don't have time for this." "Aerial One now airborne, and over Bradfield." "We're heading north on Roxborough Road." "No sighting." "Aerial One - suspect vehicle sighted on Hilltop Road." "This is Alpha Bravo 59." "We'll pursue." "Roger." "DI Fielding." "Request for armed response vehicles." "Over." "On our way." "Hilltop Roundabout's up ahead." "All units intercept suspect vehicle at Hilltop Roundabout." "The girl must not be harmed." "We've got him." "Get out of the car, Mr Stringer." "Mr Stringer, get out of the car!" "Get down on the ground!" "Hands in the air!" "COMMOTION" "Do not move!" "Help!" "(SCREAMS)" "Dad!" "Dad!" "Put your weapons up." "It was definitely not abduction." "ALARM" "(COUGHS)" "So, let me get this straight." "At 9:20 yesterday morning you grabbed your own daughter off the street?" "We've been having trouble with her going to school." "We've been getting letters home." "They're gonna take my wife and I to court." "I followed her, made her get in the car, and took her to school myself." "So why did she kick and scream?" "She always kicks and screams." "So you're saying that we called an Amber Alert, got everyone looking for an abducted child when there wasn't one?" "Sir, we called an Amber Alert because we believed there was a child in danger." "That's a right and proper use of the resources." "We were wrong about that child, but there's still a little girl out there who's been murdered." "How's the boy who tried to hang himself?" "Not in danger." "You find me her killer." "When Janita woke up, she said she wasn't feeling very well." "Celeste agreed she shouldn't go to school." "But we know she was well enough to go to the shops." "At the same time, Mikey leaves home, never intending to go to school." "Celeste's back at home, looking after a sick toddler." "We know she went to the shop, because we know what she bought." "According to CCTV, she left the shop at 9:18." "And then she meets Mikey." "We don't know where, don't know when, but it's somewhere between... this point, and when she died." "Lenny arrived for work at 10:45." "So that rules him out." "Did Forensics find blood in Barry's van?" "No." "Mikey?" "How many foils were found in the car?" "Four." "Let's assume Mikey and Janita were together in the burnt-out car." "That's two each." "Six in a pack." "Nobody likes the green ones." "We know she wasn't forced to eat them, because there's no bruising on her mouth." "She started to digest them, so we know she wasn't murdered at that point." "Maybe they went somewhere else." "Her death is consistent with someone not doing what you want them to do." "It's frustration." "Mikey's 13, she's 11." "You know that kind of frustration, Tony." "So, somehow, somewhere, she says no." "The killer picks up the nearest thing, and...blunt trauma." "Is Mikey right-handed?" "Yes." "How did he lift the body?" "She's small enough." "Maybe she was killed at the dump site." "He realises what he's done, he lays her down..." "But he would cover her up, especially her face." "He's immature, in denial." "That's what he'd do." "Initially, I thought she was taken there by car, but now..." "What fragments were found in the head wound?" "None." "No brick, no wood dust?" "It was a flat, metallic object, maybe something from the car." "But there would be paint, rust." "Was anything found near her body from the car?" "No." "Right." "They meet up, she's found dead, he won't speak, tries to hang himself." "That's guilt." "It's guilt, it's guilt." "But why?" "What drove him?" "Oh, Mikey." "Sometimes you've just got to face the simple truth." "I'll call CPS, see if we've got enough to charge him." "The blood test results just came in." "It wasn't her blood." "It was his own." "It's not hers?" "They found traces of faeces." "Dr Hill?" "Dr Hill?" "Search Fletcher's flat." "We already have." "Not for an abducted girl." "For Mikey's blood." "He's not a suspect, he's not guilty." "He's one of Fletcher's victims." "(SIGHS)" "I know what happened, Mikey." "And you don't have to be frightened any more." "What that man made you do was not your fault." "I thought he'd gone." "He came back..." "How old were you when it first started?" "Six." "Mikey..." "I need your help." "Now, I know you and Janita were friends, yeah?" "You were both outsiders." "Maybe you only had each other, yeah?" "And I know you met up with her, and I know you played in the car." "Did she know about Fletcher?" "If she did... ..she wouldn't have said yes." "Said yes to what?" "I asked her to go out with me." "Yeah?" "She said she was fed up of taking medicine." "Had she had a boyfriend before?" "I'm the first." "Yeah, Alex, we need Janita's medical records." "She liked to ride in the back." "That's why her fingerprints are there." "All kids do." "It's something different." "Was she in the van the morning she was killed?" "No!" "She was asked out by a boy." "You couldn't stand the idea, could you?" "Listen, I know what you're thinking." "Yeah, I used prostitutes and I'm married, I admit that." "I used to hit my ex-wife." "I regret it, but you think I got hold of some Ford Fiesta and killed Janita?" "I didn't!" "The person who dumped her knew the area." "I mean, look at this place." "This is not somewhere you'd come across." "You have to know how close the buildings are." "What are you doing?" "Do we have a list of businesses on this estate?" "Somewhere, yes." "There it is." "Which building is this one in?" "The children's play centre?" "This one." "And her body was found here." "And tell Alex it isn't Barry." "What?" "It isn't Barry." "He still thinks Janita was abducted in a Ford Fiesta." "We know that isn't the case." "My first boyfriend." "Don't forget, we need Janita's medical records." "So you know the area?" "It was years ago." "Were you at home with Hester when she died?" "Are you saying I killed my first child too?" "Were you there?" "These are Janita's medical records." "She wasn't on any medication." "Has Vernon got any function tests on Janita?" "I don't think so." "Yes, abnormal levels." "Oh, yes...." "Can you check her blood for that?" "Great." "Thanks." "Sorry." "Hang on one second." "Is this both of them?" "OK, thank you." "I thought you discounted all this." "I don't know how much longer I can carry on." "I had, but you always see something different when you watch a repeat." "My child has been abducted." "She hasn't come back from the shops." "I'm watching this thing on the news." "(SOBS)" "Hear that?" "Hear what?" "What am I listening for?" "Just listen to what she says." "My child has been abducted." "Tony, I still don't get it." "Listen to her assumption." "My child has been abducted." "We thought she had." "WE did." "She didn't." "There's no:" "I think, I don't know what's happened," "I don't know where she is." "What we have here is a construction of events of how she would like them to be." "Celeste suggested the earring was Janita's." "But she wasn't wearing any." "The earrings belonged to..." "Stringer's daughter." "Alex, how often do you take Ben to the doctor's?" "Once, twice a year?" "Janita's 11." "These records are long enough for a 90 year old." "That's how they get away with it." "Takes too long to put the puzzle together." "Hester was murdered as well." "Lenny wasn't there." "He was working nights." "You were right." "Abnormal levels of salt." "This is your killer." "Serial killing is all about power and control, but when you're a mother you have a smaller group of people to exercise that control over." "But the signature here, it isn't about the killing." "It's about the intention." "How many times did Celeste say the word "I"?" "Me?" "It was never about Janita." "It was always about her." "Getting attention through the pain of her children." "She'd been feeding them salt since they were babies." "Munchausen's syndrome by proxy." "Exactly." "Look how many times Janita went to the doctor's." "She was making her sick." "Janita was her victim, as was Hester, and probably now Ryan is as well." "But she didn't die from salt poisoning." "She died from a blunt trauma." "Yeah, because Janita went home after having met Mikey." "She was a different girl to the one who left." "She was more confident." "She'd had her first boyfriend." "And who was the first person to mention Mikey as a suspect?" "Celeste." "So, Janita goes home." "She's later than she should be." "She's also eaten some of the things she was meant to take home." "So, Celeste, she's angry." "And when Mummy's angry with Daughter, Daughter must do as Mummy says." "She must take her medicine because it will make her feel better." "But Janita, she says no." "So Celeste, she strikes out because she's lost control of her daughter." "Janita falls, and hits her head." "Those bruises on Celeste's arm, they're not from Barry." "They're from Janita." "What are you saying?" "This wasn't murder?" "This was an accident?" "No, it's definitely murder." "The intention to seriously harm has always been present." "She didn't mean to kill her right then." "So she dumps the body?" "Yeah." "And she starts to create the story she wants to tell." "Murdered children dumped on a waste site." "She's been there, she's been to the play centre." "It's where she takes Ryan, except when she dumps Janita, she's acting as a mother, and not as a killer." "Meanwhile, back home, she's working out what her story will be, when along we come with an Amber Alert for a child that has gone missing." "Perfect Munchausen's psyche." "A drama she can fit herself in the centre of." "A drama where SHE will be the victim." "Come on, Ryan... drink this for Mummy." "There's a good boy." "Mummy'll make you better." "Two litres, Bradfield Dairy." "Sell by the 23rd." "It's out of date." "The bread's out of date as well." "Jam tarts?" "Just a sec." "Found them." "Yeah, there's two green ones left." "Wait." "Celeste?" "Celeste!" "Celeste!" "She's gone." "She's got Ryan." "Did she know we were on to her?" "Why?" "Because she's emotionally unstable." "I can see her." "Celeste!" "Will she take her own life?" "Final drama." "She's got nothing else to live for." "What about that little boy?" "Celeste!" "SIREN BLARES" "I can see her." "She's crossing the bridge, over the dual carriageway." "Mary-Ann, hold back." "Don't put Celeste under any pressure." "SIRENS SCREAM" "Mummy loves you." "Celeste!" "You're a good mother." "Just look at him." "Your son." "You made him, Celeste." "And you nurtured him." "He's perfect." "And he came from you." "I can't imagine how much love you must have for him." "How proud you must be." "The perfect mother, the perfect son." "And no-one can destroy that." "No-one." "OK?" "It's all right." "She's all right." "Night, Kevin." "Going home to my son." "(MOBILE RINGS)" "Hello?" "How are you doing?" "Good." "Mm-hm." "Mikey?" "If you ever need to talk, you call me." "Any time." "Do you want a lift?" "Yeah." "Where are you taking me?" "Where do you wanna go?" "(MIMICS ENGINE PURRING)" "itfc subtitles"
