"MAN [ON TV]:" "It is not, though, the panacea." "Just by taking it out does not mean the rest of the insurgency will fall." "REPORTER:" "More than half of Fallujah's 250,000 residents have already fled in anticipation of the offensive." "Insurgents believed to number in the thousands have been preparing defenses attacking U. S. troops, and rigging booby traps." "MAN:" "Mr. Deerfield?" "Jim Osher." "Could, uh...." "Could I get a word?" "Yeah, come on in." "I'll just be a minute." "[SIGHS]" "Sir, I regret to inform you that a body was found last night." "Upon investigation, we believe it to be the remains of your son, Michael Deerfield." "Right." "They'll need me to identify the body?" "No, sir." "We've" "They've determined identity in other ways." "I believe partial fingerprints." "What do you mean "partial"?" "What happened to him?" "I'm not at liberty to say, sir." "Someone" "I wanna see his body now!" "Sergeant Deerfield, this isn't necessary." "It's not how you wanna remember your son." "Maybe not but it's the way he left this earth, so I don't see as I have any choice." "EXAMINER:" "Working backwards, carbon patterns show the body was dismembered before it was burned." "It appears a large knife or tool was used, but the blade was dull which is why the bones are shattered rather than severed." "Burn patterns show us the dismembered parts were stacked and doused with an accelerant in an attempt to incinerate the body." "You'd need an oven to approach an effective temperature which means most tissue would've been left intact." "So the damage is largely the result of scavengers stripping the bones." "Cause of death will take more time to determine but there is evidence of stab wounds." "How many?" "I'm sorry?" "How many stab wounds?" "Well, with much of the flesh missing we can only count blows that made impact with bone." "How many of those were there?" "Forty-two." "One knife, or several?" "One." "Gonna turn these over to the Army?" "Tried to." "Said they took their own photos." "And they didn't say it in a nice way." "I'd like to give you a call tomorrow before you go home." "I have a few questions." "HANK:" "Ask them now." "Your son didn't own a green car?" "Mike doesn't own a car." "Motorist reported seeing a green sedan parked on the shoulder near the field that Saturday night." "One of the theories is that this is a carjacking or a robbery gone wrong and there's a big uptick in gang activity lately." "I wanna see where he died." "I'm sorry." "It's an active crime scene, but I will let you know..." "...as soon as you can." "Okay." "What else you wanna ask?" "A lot of the deaths like these have been drug-related." "Are you asking if Mike was a drug dealer or just an addict?" "I don't wanna be asking anything." "You know the Army does regular drug tests." "Not when they're in Iraq." "Now, we found this under your son's mattress." "It's not gonna go in my report." "But why I ask is last month we arrested three soldiers who were trying to smuggle heroin in from Kuwait." "They'd made arrangements to sell it to a local Mexican gang." "I understand Mike spoke a little Spanish?" "And you think he could've been a drug mule because he spoke Spanish?" "No because somebody cut off his hands and his head." "I'm really sorry about your son." "Show me." "I'm sorry?" "I need to see where he died." "It's not our case." "The murder occurred on military property." "You know where it is?" "There's nothing to see." "Then there shouldn't be any problem with me seeing it." "[SANDERS SIGHS]" "HANK:" "You people sure as hell know how to trample a crime scene, I'll give you that." "I suppose you thought it was a good idea to have everybody you ever met park on this shoulder." "If your boys knew what they were doing they'd have found traces of blood in the gravel right here." "It's where he was killed." "So you don't see blood, but you know it's there?" "Yeah." "Just like I know his body was dragged from here to there." "That's remarkable." "The ground is rock-hard, but you see drag marks." "You go to the trouble to burn a body, don't you think you'd cover your tracks?" "I'm going to the restroom." "You might find it easier to drive around that field." "You couldn't do any more damage." "SANDERS:" "Everybody knows everything." "[COUNTRY MUSIC PLAYING ON RADIO]" "WOMAN:" "Hi." "Hi." "Can I help you?" "I suppose the MPs have been in here asking questions about what happened in that field." "They sure have." "Terrible thing." "I'm checking it out for the family." "Mind if I ask if you saw anything?" "I wish we had." "We would've liked to help." "We didn't know what it was when we smelled it, did we?" "MAN:" "No." "How's that?" "That Sunday, when we drove in the parking lot we just thought somebody had been barbecuing." "Smelled like, um, burned meat." "Thank you." "HANK:" "Tell your MP friends they should be looking for a blue car, not a green one." "Why?" "Because a blue car under a yellow light looks green." "Doesn't it?" "It certainly does." "Thank you." "It's the least I could do." "I'd say that's accurate." "JOAN [OVER PHONE]:" "I'll get a plane ticket." "No." "What do you mean, "No"?" "I'll bring him home soon as I can." "I need to see him." "I need to be with Michael." "He's gone." "I need to be with my boy." "There is nothing left." "What the hell does that mean?" "Joanie, for once in your life, will you take my word for something?" "For once?" "For once?" "I seem to remember me being the one saying no and you saying it'd be good for his character." "Who won that argument, Hank?" "Mike was the one who wanted to join." "I sure as hell didn't encourage it." "Living in this house, he never could've felt like a man if he hadn't gone." "[JOAN SOBS]" "Both of my boys, Hank." "You could've left me one."

"I was just wondering how I came to be assigned this case." "Uh, which case?" "Jacob Ronald Millard slaughterhouse employee, arrested for torturing chickens." "It's no big deal." "Everybody does it." "Everybody doesn't poke their eyes out, asshole." "Sure, they do." "Shut up!" "Boss doesn't want me humping his daughter." "Now we're shocked beyond words." "You see how you could draw information out of people?" "People just like you, Emily." "That is how you got promoted from traffic to detective squad, am I right?" "I'm sorry?" "BURKE:" "Oh, don't be." "If Wayne or Hodge could've fucked their way into the squad, they would've too." "Well, Wayne would have." "One of us needs to know what we're doing." "[LAUGHING]" "You see, that's what concerns me." "Having fucked my way into the job I may not be qualified enough to piece together this complex of a crime." "I mean, take that murder site." "I would've never concluded that that soldier was killed on Army property." "I would've been fooled by the signs of struggle on the side of the road." "And you know that little trail of broken brush from there to where he was burned?" "Well, that would've made me think he was killed in our jurisdiction, and then moved." "Because the killers didn't think it smart to chop him up under a bright streetlight." "Yeah." "I would've totally misread that crime scene." "BUCHWALD:" "No, no, no." "It's good work." "I mean, we needed another homicide." "What, we've solved three out of the last 1 0?" "Another unsolved would cement my standing with the mayor." "You have a problem with your fellow detectives?" "You feel the need to show them up?" "No, sir." "So it's the military police?" "You think they're boobs, they'll bungle the investigation?" "No, but let's not pretend we don't know the real motives for the Army wanting this case." "Psychic powers." "When did you discover you had these?" "You don't believe their primary concern will be how this incident reflects on the Army?" "This is a career move?" "Is that it?" "I don't have a career, sir." "I have a job." "I take care of my son and do what I'm told." "This boy died in a ditch beside one of our streets." "Someone burned him like a cord of wood, leaving his remains for animals to chew on." "With respect, if that was your son just back from Iraq I don't think you'd be as happy about tossing this case off so you look better come election time." "That was with respect?" "That was my intent, sir." "Fine." "I'll think about it and I'll let you know." "Every second we lose in this" "Didn't you say that you would do whatever you were told?" "I sometimes exaggerate for effect." "Mm-hm." "How's David?" "Sorry?" "Your son." "He's fine, thanks for asking." "That, uh, deadbeat ex of yours ever show up for any of his games?" "David's pretty pathetic at every sport he attempts so he wants as few people to witness it as possible." "Well, that's a damn shame, isn't it?" "It's not like he's the boy's father." "[BUCHWALD SIGHS]" "Anyway, way I see it it's the oddballs and the misfits who go on to do interesting things with their lives."

"Anybody know you took this?" "No, sir." "I asked the visitors' center where you were staying and they told me." "Can I buy you a coffee?" "I really should get back." "How about a drink?" "To Mike." "I need to ask you something." "And I want the truth." "Was Mike doing drugs?" "Doc?" "I guess." "No more than the other guys." "He wasn't like a heavy doper or anything." "You ever see him hanging out off the base with anyone?" "Maybe Mexicans?" "No, sir." "How you adjusting?" "Being back?" "Mm." "Hasn't been that long." "Call your parents?" "My mom." "My dad and I aren't close." "Did you guys talk much?" "Sure." "We could've talked more." "Did he ever say anything to you that I should know?" "No, sir." "I mean you see shit over there you don't wanna talk about..." "...even with your buddies." "Yeah." "But he did all right, Mike?" "He was a first-class soldier." "You know Mike." "He loved the Army." "Couldn't wait to get there, save the good guys and hurt the bad guys." "They shouldn't send heroes to places like Iraq." "Everything there's fucked up." "Before I went, I'd never say this, but you ask me now they should just nuke it and watch it all turn back to dust." "JOAN:" "Hank?" "You okay?" "HANK:" "Yeah, I was just about to call you." "A package came from Michael." "What kind of package?" "I don't know, it's a package." "He sent it to himself." "It's from overseas." "I'm gonna open it." "No." "What do you mean, "No"?" "Does it look like it's been opened by customs or by the military?" "How would I know?" "No, it doesn't." "Why can't I open it?" "Just don't." "Please." "Um...." "Just put it someplace safe." "Okay." "Night." "Good night." "Morning." "Morning." "I wonder if I could ask you a few questions about your son." "I thought it wasn't your case." "It sort of fell back to me." "Isn't that our good fortune?" "I was wondering if you knew if your son had any enemies." "You mean other than the thousands of Iraqis and foreign fighters trying to kill him till a couple of weeks ago?" "Yeah, that shirt looks like it's still wet." "It's dry enough." "Anything bothering him that you know about?" "No." "You looking into the gang connection?" "Why?" "You have reason to think your son was involved in gangs or drugs?" "No." "When did you last speak to him?" "Why?" "Capital One faxed me a recent summary of his credit-card charges." "After he got back, he bought tube socks" "I told him a dozen times, those are the worst socks." "They have no heel, they wear right through." "and then he went out for some chicken." "Does it say what time?" "And no more charges." "We assume your son was killed sometime Saturday night or Sunday morning."

"[LATIN MUSIC PLAYING]" "MAN:" "Enjoy." "How can I help you?" "We're inquiring about a soldier who was here a week ago." "You're kidding me, right?" "We're a block from the base."

"Not without the actual receipt." "Okay." "Thank you." "Your four-piece dinner is $6.79." "Is that what most people order?" "That or the three-piece." "So with tax $21.77 would be three meals, three people." "Four, if it's the three-piece, or one really hungry soldier." "There you are." "I just dropped something off for you." "You did?" "We took statements from Mike's squad." "Thought you'd want them." "That's great." "I was gonna call you to arrange interviews." "Saved you the trouble." "How so?" "Sworn statements on your desk."

"If you still wanna question them, I will be glad to take the request to my C.O." "Perhaps you misunderstood me." "It's not a request." "I want the list of the men in his unit." "On your desk." "And I wanna interview them this afternoon." "You'll have to go to my C.O. with that one." "My chief already spoke to him." "This one's a bit of a jurisdictional mess." "There is no mess." "The murder was committed in our jurisdiction." "That's where it gets murky." "Read those." "I'd be glad to put the request in." "You don't have the sworn statements?" "I have the statements" "Then they're cooperating." "I don't see the problem." "I have a right to interview potential witnesses." "Has the Army said you can't?" "They said they'd consider my request." "And that was 1 0 minutes ago." "And I'd like to talk to these men before they've been coached or debriefed so any inconsistencies in their stories will have disappeared." "Being a former military man, I'm sure you've seen that perhaps when you served with Lieutenant Kirklander?" "I'll tell you what." "Ahem." "Skip upstairs and cry to your boyfriend." "Because I'm just not in the mood to give a shit." "REPORTER [ON TV]:" "We're showing video that has just come in to CNN from Fallujah." "You ordered yet?" "SANDERS:" "Okay." "Dig in, men." "May I?" "SANDERS:" "Please." "SANDERS:" "Okay." "Out." "No, I can do it." "You can." "Now get ready for bed." "Go on." "Is there anything I can do?" "[SIGHS]" "You're supposed to read it to me." "I don't understand one word of it." "Well, do you know any stories?" "I'm not much of a storyteller." "Well, then read me the book." "[HANK SIGHS]" "You know where your name comes from?" "My mother?" "No, before that." "You're named after King David." "Your mother didn't tell you that?" "That figures." "All right." "Ahem." "There were two great armies assembled, the Israelites and the Philistines." "They were both up on hills, the Valley of Elah in between." "It's in Palestine, you know where it is?" "No." "Doesn't matter." "Anyway, the Philistines had a champion." "A huge giant named Goliath." "Really?" "There's a robot named Goliath." "This is a different guy." "Oh." "So every day, for 40 days Goliath would stride down into the valley and challenge somebody from the other side to fight, but nobody would." "All the bravest and strongest warriors that the king had were all too scared." "Why didn't they just shoot him?" "They didn't have guns." "They had arrows, but there are rules to combat." "You don't shoot somebody that's challenging you to fight with a sword." "So anyway one day this kid, not much bigger than you, comes delivering bread." "He says to the king, "I'll fight Goliath."" "Really?" "No way." "True story." "So the king dresses David in his own armor." "But it's much too big and heavy, so David takes it off and he looks around and he finds five smooth stones about that big." "And he steps out into the valley, with his slingshot in his hand." "Goliath comes running yelling this horrible scream." "And David lets fly with that slingshot." "Hits him in the forehead, cracks his skull open Goliath falls down, dead." "So he shot him." "With a rock." "Not the same thing." "[DAVID EXHALES]" "And you want to know how he beat him?" "How?" "The first thing David had to fight was his own fear." "He beat that, he beat Goliath." "Because when Goliath came running, David planted his feet, took aim and waited." "You know how much courage that took?" "Just a few more steps and Goliath would've crushed him." "Then he let fly with that rock." "That's how you fight monsters." "You lure them in close to you, you look them in the eye you smack them down." "You fight a lot of monsters?" "Yeah." "You win?" "If I didn't, I'd have been crushed, right?" "Yeah." "Hm." "Okay, then." "Good night." "He likes to sleep with that door open." "He'll be okay." "DAVID:" "Door!" "Not that much." "Okay." "That's good." "You know that story isn't true." "Of course it's true." "It's even in the Koran." "May I read the men's statements?" "There is nothing in them that'll help." "The last time any of the men saw Mike was Saturday afternoon, before he left base." "You're a good father." "You don't have to prove you loved him." "I'm sure he knew."

"That one was harassing one of the dancers, real asshole." "This guy?" "Other one." "Get a lot of assholes in here, but he was going for the prize." "Shouting obscenities at the dancers." "You got the wrong man." "You ask me to ID a guy, and then you tell me that I'm wrong." "You two related?" "What time they leave?" "Fuck if I know." "They weren't happy about it." "Two of them got into it out in the parking lot." "Thought I was gonna have to break it up myself." "Thank you." "Detective Nugent will stay while you write out your statement." "I want the pen back, Nugent." "Word?" "This is not Saigon." "This is not 1 967." "You do not question witnesses." "I figured somebody should." "It must be frustrating being such a damn good investigator surrounded by incompetent fools." "Remind me, what is it you do in Munro?" "I haul gravel." "That's a shame." "Think of all the crime that could've been solved if you'd been on the job." "This goes to trial, the defense will say you poisoned the well." "It won't go to trial." "What?" "It wasn't them." "I'm sorry?" "I don't know why they lied about not being with him, but they didn't do it." "They were fighting in the parking lot." "Blowing off steam." "You have not been to war so you won't understand this." "You do not fight beside a man and then do that to him." "That's quite the world you live in." "Find out why they lied." "There'll be a reason." "SANDERS:" "So you were there." "Yeah." "So why would you lie?" "It's complicated." "Why don't you just tell me what happened?" "We were at this strip club." "Just hanging out, having a good time." "We were drinking, of course." "And Mike starts acting really weird." "Really angry, throwing change at the stripper." "Then he started talking trash so she started talking trash, and they tossed us out." "And we're getting in the car and Bonner's all pissed saying Mike can walk." "So Mike grabs him and they just start going off on each other." "But it's the kind of shit that happens all the time." "The whole macho-warrior crap." "Nobody got hurt." "So we got in the car, we drove around for a while." "And then we stopped at the Chicken Shack, across from the base." "Mike bought, for getting us kicked out." "And what time was this?" "I don't know." "Around 1." "And then we came back here." "All of you?" "No." "Just the three of us." "Why would you leave him there?" "Because we were wasted." "We had had enough, but Mike wanted to find some meth." "He wanted to buy drugs?" "Yeah, like he needed to be more fucked up." "Pardon my language, ma'am." "SANDERS:" "You think that's what happened?" "He went looking for drugs, ran into the wrong people?" "Who knows?" "I mean, Mike always had secrets." "You know, over there, he was always sneaking off by himself." "He really didn't get along too well with people." "So you get kicked out of the strip club at 1 1, show up at the Chicken Shack at 1." "What were you doing for a whole two hours?" "Driving around, looking for a party, or women." "Did you stop anywhere?" "Yes, ma'am." "[GULPS]" "Now you want me to guess?" "Ahem." "We found a hooker over on Ten Mile Road." "She blew all four of us." "Why didn't you say that when you were questioned?" "We didn't think Mike wanted his parents to know." "SANDERS:" "You didn't want his father to know he got a blow job?" "And was buying drugs." "I wouldn't want somebody telling my parents." "So, what was the fight about?" "Mike was in some dark mood." "I don't know why." "And then he started saying nasty things to that stripper." "Like what?" "Stuff I'm not gonna repeat." "The woman's a stripper, not something on your shoe." "Out in the parking lot, Penning said Mike came at you swinging." "Might have, I don't recall." "What was different about that night?" "That you had a knife?" "I don't need a knife, ma'am." "I guess back in Iraq things are different." "Somebody makes you mad, you can deal with it, right?" "You lost me." "It's a whole different world." "You got power." "You've never been in the Army." "But I know that you've got weapons and authority." "You put men facedown in the dirt, step on their backs, kick in doors." "Somebody comes at you, you kill them." "You have to." "The guy could have bombs, guns, you don't know." "Kill him first." "You make the call." "React or die, isn't that what they say?" "Ever stab someone?" "If I did, it wouldn't be your business." "There one day, back here another." "I gotta tell you, somebody comes charging at me, I'd reach for my weapon." "KIRKLANDER:" "The interview is over." "I'm glad none of this bothered you." "I gotta tell you, I saw my father come back from war." "Things he couldn't deal with pretty much destroyed him." "Huh." "What was he, in Panama?" "KIRKLANDER:" "Enough." "You have no idea what we did, and we did it for you." "For me?" "BONNER:" "If I were you I'd just say thanks, leave it at that, and kiss my ass." "KIRKLANDER:" "Walk away." "You happy now?" "You want to convene a war-crimes tribunal?" "I want the clothes they wore." "I want to take full-body photographs for cuts and bruises." "Ma'am, you can have all the undies you want."

"The field where we found Mike's remains is a half an hour away." "There's no way they could've driven there in time." "Never mind...." "So they left him there?" "They said Mike wanted to buy drugs." "And that's why they lied?" "And they had no idea where he went when they left him, or who he met?" "No." "And I have statements from every other man in the squad." "May I see those?" "[SANDERS SIGHS]" "If they're telling the truth, no one saw him after dinnertime." "Yeah." "Lab says no traces of blood on their clothes or their belongings." "SANDERS:" "Did you look at these clothes?" "NUGENT:" "Mm-hm." "I mean, look at this shirt." "It has crease marks where it came off the shelf." "Clothes are cheap on the base."

"There ought to be seven statements here and there's only six." "So one of them's on leave." "When I got here, the sergeant told me all of his men were back from liberty." "Read the names." "Yeah."

"First arrested Bobby Ortiez when he was 1 4, for drug trafficking." "Got bail and the witness disappeared." "A year and a half ago we liked him for drug smuggling." "Suddenly he gets all patriotic and joins up." "How did they let him in the Army?" "No felony convictions." "They've lowered standards every month since this started." "There's a 1 999 Chevrolet Malibu registered in his name." "What color?" "Blue." "That's not enough for a warrant." "He's AWOL." "The Army can go after him, we can't."
