"Dirty cops in the NYPD?" "Maybe." "We'll find out tomorrow when the Dove Commission releases its long awaited report on possible corruption in the big apple." "Gentlemen I'd like to propose a toast to the Dove Commission." "Well done, Gentlemen." "And to our fearless leader, commissioner Stanwick." "All I can say is he's a better commissioner than he is a dancer." "Welcome to the biggest case of the year." "Dead on the dance floor is the chief investigator of the Dove Commission," "Dan Stanwick." "Independent collection of judges and attorneys with one function:" "expose the weaknesses of the NYPD." "The last time they published their report was what, 92?" "There's officers still in jail because of that document." "Word on the street is that this report is far more damaging than the one in 92." "Now apparently the commission was having a little celebratory toast when the gunshots went off." "Rumor has it they're publishing report for the media tomorrow at 5 PM." "What about the woman?" "She's collateral damage." "Her name's Charlotte Dubois." "Her best friend Grace Walderson is sitting over there." "Surely a few crooked cops out there wanted a man like this dead." "Our suspect could very well be in that report." "That's where we start." "CSI:" "NY 1x18 The Dove Commission" "ORIGINAL AIR DATE ON CBS: 2005/03/23" "All right people, here we go." "Mike, I want you to sketch the crime scene." "Joe, shoot some overalls." "The rest of you start collecting evidence, but whatever you do, do not touch the bullets." "Those are for me." "Excuse me, Cronkite." "You can't film here." " This is a crime scene." " Please, please please." "I was here before the shooting covering the release of the Dove Commission report." "I'm well within my rights." "You keep filming, I'm gonna give you rights, and lefts." "Now take a walk, now." "Back to your nests you vultures." "How's your shoulder?" "Fine, just some flying glass." "Where you hit anywhere else." "I don't think so, no." "Ms.Walderson." "Grace. / Grace." "You knew the woman who was killed tonight." "Her name was Charlotte Dubois." "She's a friend of mine from Kentucky." "She was in town for a couple of days, so I brought her up here because she wanted to see the city at night." "Was anyone else with you?" "No." "We ate together in the restaurant, then afterwards, we made our way to the bar." "The next thing I know, she's dancing with some man in a suit." "What am I gonna tell her sisters?" "You tell them that every officer in the NYPD is doing everything they can to bring this killer to justice, okay?" "Here's a thing." "The bullet go through glass at a high rate of speed, so much so that the sheets of glass fall directly downward." "Okay, bag that glass." "We need to know where our shooter stood." "Anyone locate the weapon yet?" "Flack and his men are searching high and low." "Nothing yet. / Shell casings?" "Not a one." "Every bullet that I've found has either been embedded in the floor or stuck into the wall." "Which one is more damage than the next?" "I'm half way through the eye witnesses, not one is reported seeing anyone with a handgun." "Well I have news for both of you." "We're not looking for a handgun." "We're looking for a rifle." "Fernando Reyes." "DOB 3/11/62, Jackson Heights, Queens." "Gypsy cab driver." "The only ones that will come into this neighborhood." "When are these guys gonna learn." "Most dangerous job in New York." "Like a 180 drivers killed since 1990." "They do things on the up and up and get a legit hack license, maybe he wouldn't be number 181." "It's a little harsh, don't you think?" "I got issues with gypsy cab drivers." "Oh yeah?" "What kind of issues?" "Don't worry about it." "Let's finish the job." "I'm just saying, a man's gotta make a living." "Those medallion yellow cabs are running like 365 grand." "He'd be working the rest of his life to pay it off." "Pay it off for the rest of your life or pay it off with your life." "It's an easy decision in my book." "Looks like a straight up robbery-homicide." "All his cash is gone." "No, the MO was weird though." "These gypsy cab drivers are typically murdered with guns." "This guy was stabbed like an animal." "So the guy jacks the driver, stabs him, takes the cash, possibly dips out down this subway." "Potential witnesses?" "Why don't you ask one of these transit guys?" "Excuse me, sir." "Working down below tonight?" "Yeah, I came up for air." "See anything weird or anything out of the ordinary the last half hour down there?" "Only every five minutes." "Bunch of wackos down there." "No one hopped your turn sign?" "Not that I saw." "I came up from the subway to take my break, the guy was hanging out of the car." "I think one of the neighbors called 911." "Thanks." "Gypsy cabs have no dispatch and no passenger log." "How are we gonna find out where this guy was going and who was in the cab?" " It's gonna be tough." " We got the body." "Start with that." "Pickling of the brain." "Takes about ten to fourteen days for it to harden so that you're able to dissect it." "Anytime before that," "JELLO." "Instant acquittal." "Commissioner Stanwick." "Shot twice." "Once in the upper torso, shattered his fourth rib, mushroomed, collapsed his lung." "Second shot entered just right of the spinal column, punctured the pericardial sack and right ventricle." "Exited the front." "Charlotte Dubois, his dance partner, was also shot twice." "One of the bullets was a through-and-through." "Through the both of them." "Pretty good shot.fs" "Lucky for us, one of the bullets is still inside the commissioner." "You know what my favorite game was, when I was a kid?" " Jacks?" "Operation." "His nose didn't buzz red." "Well done." "Hey Donna." "Lieutenant Smith in?" "No sir, he's banging in this shift." "Ah, let's see." "Bad card game or the wife?" "Listen Donna, I know it's customary for high ranking officials in the NYPD to get a prelim copy of the Dove Commission report." "Little bird told me the lieutenant's got one." "Is that true?" "Yes it's true, but I can't let you take it." " He would kill me." " Well if he kills you," "I'll be the one processing your crime scene." "I'll know it was him, right." "Look, I'll square it up with him tomorrow." "He owes me a favor." "I just need to dumb through it a bit, see who's on the Dove Commission's most wanted list." "He'll be out all day." "I guess it won't hurt." "How's our gypsy cab driver doc?" "You bring him back to life, so he can just tell us who killed him?" "Ah, I haven't attended that seminar yet, but his fingernails are doing an awful lot of talking." "Is that blood?" "This guy put up one hell of a fight." "Look at these defensive wounds." "It doesn't end there." "He didn't want to give up the money did he?" "Yeah well, when you're making 50 bucks a night, every penny's sacred." "He died from a stab wound to the neck." "Punctured the carotid artery, and as if that wasn't enough, the killer sliced his throat. / Sick." "It's like the killer enjoyed himself ha?" "Ultimately, your victim was outmuscled." "Chief Robinson?" " Who the hell are you?" " Detective Taylor, crime scene." "Came to talk to you about the Dove Commission report." "What about it?" " I've read it." "It implicates the men under you were involved in trafficking drugs with police cars in the summer of 01." "Pack of lies." "It also documents that two of your officers abducted a prominent drug dealer and dropped him off at a rival drug dealer's neighborhood in handcuffs, fall of 04." "That's just the first chapter." "If those allegations were true," "I'd be under arrest." "Chief, you're number one on the Dove Commission's most wanted list." "I'd like to know your whereabouts last night." "Let me tell you detective/." "I don't know what you're up to, but you're going to a very dark place with me." "I'm investigating a murder of a man accusing you of countless acts of corruption." "That's more than enough motive to kill." "Now, you'll hold out your hands, I'd like to check for gunshot residue." "You son of a bitch." "You're gonna find residue." "I've just been to the range." "Hold out your hands chief." "The DNA under your cab driver's fingernails was female." "Wait, you're saying a woman did this?" "No way a female did this." "You got a hit in CODIS?" "Negative. / I don't get it doc." "Everything about this case screams male perp." "Everything but the DNA." "You're looking at two bullets from the crime scene." "Different stria." "Two rifles," "Which means there were two riflemen." "Dual snipers." "Take a look at this." "I see reflective trace on the tip of the bullet." "Means it went through this first." "So the bullets didn't come from inside of the panoramic room." "Shots came from the outside." "65 floors up." "Nothing but blue sky." "Where were the snipers shooting from?" "The crime scene's on the 65th floor." "That's fifteen stories up." "Broken glass all over the place." "I bet you there's shell casings." "How many casings you got?" "I got one." "Five." "I'm lucky like that." "No sniper could hit the 65th floor from here, so there's shell casings falling from mid air." "I can't rap my brain around this one." "Yeah, at this point, neither can I." "Detective Taylor." "Inspector Marconi." "You got a second?" "We need to chit-chat." "Who can say no to internal affairs?" "Everything all right?" "You and your can, everything is fine as wine." "Listen, I heard you leaned on old man Robinson." "You heard right." "Got an early copy of the Dove Commission report." "If I didn't know any better," "I'd think I was reading the Robinson report with all those allegations." "Yeah, well, he's not happy." "He's been ringing the dinner bell about you since you paid him a visit." " So, he send you?" " Well, something like that." "But I'm not on his side on this one." "Report is out." "I just got a copy." "Between you and me and these four walls," "I'd like to put this man to bed as soon as possible." "Precinct chiefs make good snags for IAB." "So if there's anything I can do to put this cadaver on the golf course for life, just let me know." "I have some evidence pending." "When I know something, you'll know." "All right, I appreciate it." "All right, let's process this cab." "You want the front or back?" "I'll take the back." "Check this out." "I've got a business card." "Looks like somebody used it to throw their gum away." "It's instant DNA." "Yeah?" "You think you can get a name off it?" "Let's see." "Yeah, yeah, no problem." "Hey, you know which is the Reyes residence?" " You Antonio?" " He's dead isn't he?" "You know I've been waiting ten years." "Ten years for you guys to come here, knock on my door and tell me that my dad's dead." "We're very sorry for your loss." " How did it happen?" " He was stabbed." "We think he was robbed but you should know that your father didn't give up easily." "He fought very hard." "Did you catch the guy?" " Not yet, but we were hoping we could ask you a couple of questions about your father." "Or maybe we can come back later, or is your mom home?" "We could talk to your mom." "She's at work." "What do you wanna know?" "Your father work any neighborhoods in particular?" "He worked all over the place." "Washington Heights," "Bensonhurst, South Bronx." "There were just better fares out there." "Better fares for the illegal cab drivers you mean?" "Yeah, that's right." "Listen, if we hear anything we'll call..." "Is it possible your father was seeing someone on the side?" "Danny ./ You wanna get this guy out of here before I do something stupid?" "Danny, let's go. / We got evidence that says your father was in contact with a woman, and it's possible he attacked her." "What?" " What did you say?" " You got a temper huh?" "You take after your old man, am I right?" "Yeah, that's right." "I hope so." "What's the matter with you." "This kid finds out two minutes ago his father's dead, and that's how you act?" "Somebody's got to ask the hard questions." "It's what you gotta do." "I'm reacting to the evidence." "No, you're not." "You're just reacting." "This is the sticky disk used to sample the precinct chief's hand, this is the shell casing Stella found at the scene." "Next, I'm gonna run the SEM for GSR for YOU." "Skip the poetry Chad." "Get to it." "Robinson tested positive for GSR." "Not what I suspected." "GSR with traces of tin." "Tin?" "Shell casings from the roof of the Centeron building no traces of tin, gun shot residue from the chief's hands did." "The difference is in the primary." "So the chief was telling the truth." "He was shooting at the range." "Not at sky scrapers." "Flack, it's Taylor." "Listen, you remember that reporter you 86ed from the scene?" "He was covering the commission right?" "Yeah, I know it's a long shot but I'd like to get my hands on that footage, see if he caught something on tape." "Yeah, you know?" "Forget it, no." "No way pal." "Vultures I think was the term?" "No, you have a better chance of going to the moon than getting that footage out of me." "Look, Morty?" "NYPD wants that real." "I know my rights." "You're gonna make me subpoena you on footage that's already aired." "Well, you're wrong you see." "I haven't aired everything." "I've got enough footage to cut together exclusives for three days, maybe four." "I got it, murder on the 65th floor." "That's worth a six share." "Monster demos in the 18~49." "Yeah, all right, I'll be back with the subpoena." "And a muzzle." "Mr.Arnold, please." "So we found your business card on a gypsy cab last night." "Oh, keep it." "I've got more." "No, you don't understand." "The cab driver was murdered." "And what, you think I was involved somehow?" "Wait a minute." "First of all," "I would have to be caught dead in a gypsy cab." "Okay, poor choice of words." "Look, I get a limousine service from work every night, and second," "I've given my business card to half of New York." "Give it to anybody last night?" "Not that I recall, no. / You sure?" "How about we go out on a limb here" "Mr. Arnold and say the kind of people you do business with, you know the "What's in your portfolio" kind of people, they don't take gypsy cabs either." "But your card ended up in one last night?" "So where were you last night?" "Come on." "What, you want me to subpoena your credit card statements, Mr.Arnold?" "I can call your wife if you want me too. / Okay, okay." "I went to Lifestyles after work." "Lifestyles?" "It's a strip club over on West 47th." "I slipped my card to one of the strippers." "I'm sure you were dishing out stock tips, that right?" "What's her name?" "Savannah." "But you know," "I don't think it was her real name." "No, you think?" "Hey, what you got?" "I can't believe this, negative across the board." "I ran every shell casing." "Nothing." "But, I have something better." "Are you ready for this?" " Yeah." "All of your ballistics in this case are from 30 caliber soft nose with a copper jacket." "Oh." "You didn't tell me that." "The only NYPD field units that would use that type of round are ESU and TARU." "Only TARU and Aviation unit have the capacity to fire at a building 65 stories up." "Tactical Assistance Response Unit?" "Ah, we're not chasing snipers are we?" "No, we're looking for a higher power." "I think we may have just found our murder weapon." "It's called a TAG." "It's a mini helicopter designed for assault in areas of narrow or high space." "Fixes(?" ") too dangerous for human risk." "It's quite a machine." "70 mile-an-hour air speed, on board thermal camera, capable of shooting live ammo." "The only down side is, it's murder on batteries." "One's a two and a half hours of flight only." "We're always recharging it." "We have reason to believe this weapon was used in the murder of two civilians." "That's impossible." "I'm responsible for this equipment." "Where were you last night?" "I was right here." "Working the late tour." "What time is that shift?" "2AM to noon." "What's the range of the TAG Chopper Officer Jasper?" "Line of sight, three miles." "How many people are authorized to fly it?" "You're looking at him. / Yeah?" "Well that's not good." "Is there more than one chopper?" "This is the only one I know of." "It's good enough for us." "We're gonna need to take the chopper and the remote." "And you." "Test fire on the right, crime scene bullet on the left." "Ballistics confirm it's a match to our chopper." "Pulled multiple prints from the remote." "All came back to officer Jasper." "Well, he's the only one authorized to fly that chopper." "Great." "We got him." "Too perfect?" "I'm more concerned about the window." "Officer Jasper says he started work at 2 AM, the shooting occurred just after ten at night." " It's a four hour window." " Point being?" "Right now, all we can prove is the helicopter he's responsible for was the weapon that did the shooting." "We still have to prove that he's the shooter." "Okay, you wanna put him in a box, play good cop bad cop?" "I'll be bad cop." "Nah." "I wanna check out that window." "Every officer is equipped with pass and go counters for the toll bridges." "Right, so you don't have to pay the toll in cash." "It's all tracked electronically." "I wanna track his movement the day of the murder." "Check his whereabouts for those four hours." "See if we can build a stronger case against him." "Okay." "Let's do it." "Do me a favor." "Make it quick ." "Yeah, all right." "Holy boob jobs Batman." "All right ladies, do me a favor and listen up." "Which one of you is Savannah?" "Gonna need a word, in private." "I don't mean the Champagne room." "He's dead?" " Surprised huh?" "Come on, you slit his throat Jamie." "Look, if he attacked you, if he forced himself on you it could be justifiable homicide." "Wait, you guys have this all wrong." "Yeah, I did get into that cab." "Washington Heights, 175th Street?" "Not that neighborhood." "Washington Heights, 175th Street?" "Yeah yeah, no problem, jump in." "But when he dropped me off," "I went through the front door of my building and a guy grabbed me." "A guy?" " Yeah." "From behind." "I ran to my friend's house." "I haven't even been home yet." "That driver, he saved my life." "Why didn't you just call the police?" "A stripper crying attempted rape." "Yeah, that would've gone over well." "Did you get a look at his face?" "No." "He was behind me the whole time." "You still have the clothes you wore that night?" "Yeah, they're right here." "Listen Jamie, we're gonna need a sample of your DNA to validate your story." "Sure." "Check this out." "It's an unknown gray substance on Jamie's shirt." "Looks metallic." "Throw it in the electron microscope." "Magnify it." "See if we can get an elemental break down." "Is anything about this case making sense to you?" "Everything points to a male suspect, right?" "The brutality of the stabbing, the beating Fernando Reyes took." "Jamie says a man attacked her when Fernando intervened." "Yeah, we still have the female DNA under his fingernails." "Jamie's the only female involved as far as we know." "And our DNA isn't a match." "Let's see." "Elemental breakdown is consistent with steel." "If everything is connected I'm not getting it." "Yeah?" "This might help." "Hair on Jamie's pants." "Attacker's?" "First the precinct chief is cleared by GSR, and now you're clearing officer Jasper at TARU." "What's going on Taylor?" "I just pulled the Pass and Go of officer Jasper from the Triborough bridge." "He was driving north at 9:48PM." "Centeron building is south." "There's no way he could have made a U-turn on the Triborough bridge and flown a chopper at approximately ten o'clock that same night." "He just didn't have time." "IAB is gonna take a big hit on this one, if it's somebody from the inside." "I need a name Taylor, or I'm afraid we're gonna have to step in." "And when we do, we're gonna look under every rock." "Am I clear?" "I can only look where the evidence leads me." "I understand." "Another day in paradise huh?" "I don't know Stella." "This case is going backwards." "Deeper we get into this, the less and less I think it's about this report." "Precinct chief, he's in it." "He's been cleared." "Officer Jasper, he isn't in here." "He's cleared." "Why don't we try a different approach Mac?" "I say we process the commissioner and Charlotte Dubois' clothes and see if that won't put us on a new path." "You're right." "Let's forget about the report." "Here we go." "Looks like somebody got a little hot under the collar." "Lipstick." "Let's get that over to Chad, see if it belongs to our dead woman." "Hey hey." "I had to call in every favor I could to break this reporter's chops." "Thankfully I gotta guy at "Subpoenas R Us"." "Here it is." "News footage from the night of the murder." "Okay." "I got TAG footage and news footage." "Your monitor one scanning footage from TAG's thermal camera." "Monitor two, newsroom footage from channel 3." "You see what I see?" "Let's see that again." "First shots hit the commissioner's center of mass with surgical precision." "Right." "One of those went through the commissioner and hit her." "But then she tries to hold him up." "Check out the copter POV." "That's when TAG takes another firing position." "Where it can get a clean shot..." "At her." "Again, surgical precision." "She was a second target?" "We believe the chief investigator of the Dove Commission was not the only target in the shooting." "The woman who was shot was also a target." "Charlotte?" "No, that's impossible." "She didn't even know that man." "I think you know she did Grace." "I think there's more to this than dinner and dancing." "Ms.Walderson, I'm detective Bonasera." "We found lipstick on the collar of Commissioner Stanwick's shirt." "And our labs confirmed that it doesn't belong to Charlotte Dubois." "Why are you involving me in all this?" "Cuz we think you are involved." "I don't know anything." "Sorry to upset you ma'am." "Ms.Walderson, you can be straight with me." "Were you having an affair with Commissioner Stanwick?" "Was the lipstick on his collar yours?" "You're not a suspect, you can trust me." "No, I can't." "Charlotte wasn't the target." "You were." "But you were both wearing red dresses." "Who are you trying to protect?" "Me." "From whom?" "I'm sorry." "I can't tell you anymore than that." "I'll get this over to Chad, compare it with the lipstick on the Commissioner's collar." "Think I'll go to the Pass and Go computers, run every suspect we have." "See if I can't find some kind of connection." " I'll be at the TAG chopper." " I'll meet you in the middle." "Ah, come on doc." "I'm dying over here." "What's the verdict?" "Now this shows the hair to be female." "Female?" "What?" "Let me see that doc." "Not only is this female but it matches the DNA from the blood under the victim's fingernail." "I don't get it." "There is one possible explanation." "Males have XY chromosomes right, but research indicates that mutation on the Y chromosome within the primer-binding site can produce a false reading in the XX reading." "It's a mutation that causes male DNA to come up female?" "So it's possible that we're looking for a man?" " It's possible." "Now the hair also had trace amounts of steel dust on it." "Could indicate prolonged contact with the subway." "Down there long enough, steel from the tracks gets all over you." " We talked to him." " He was at the crime scene." "Son of a bitch." " I don't know what you're talking about." " Nah, do me somethin', do me a favor." "Just shut up." "It's dead song and dance Paul." "Cuz DNA puts you on both the cab driver and Jamie Banks." "Who?" " The girl you tried to rape?" "You actually watched her come home every night didn't you?" "But watching wasn't enough for you, was it?" "You almost got away with it too, Paul." "You did." "But you didn't plan on a good samaritan coming to her rescue, did you?" "That Gypsy scumbag should've stayed in his cab." "Fernando Reyes, he was just trying to help that woman all right?" "And we're trying to help his family by doing our job." "He has a kid at home." "And you go take an innocent life?" "Let me tell you something." "You know the subways where you work, you don't think one of those open you up when they put you in that prison?" "You hear me, huh?" "Come on." "That right?" " I'm better now." "All right. / And for the record, that's harsh." "That's him." "Let's check his Pass and Go account." "Inspector Bill Markoni." "Internal Affairs, Division of the NYPD." "Five years ago you worked in the Tactical Assistance Response Unit." "You had authorization to fly the TAG chopper." "Those rights were restricted the day you became IAB." "Your print was found on the battery." "You were flying the TAG chopper, Inspector." "The Dove Commission report, is gonna look like a comic book when I'm through with you." "Do you know what's gonna happen to your careers?" "With what we've got on you I'd imagine a promotion is in order." "According to your Pass and Go and toll photos you were driving into Rue Van without authorization." "At first we thought Commissioner Stanwick was the only target but we were wrong." "Grace Walderson was a target also." "Not Charlotte Dubois of Kentucky." "You were so anxious to take out Grace Walderson that you killed the wrong woman." "This was a crime of passion, wasn't it Markoni?" "She was mine before she was his." "Dan Stanwick knew it, and he stole her right out of my bed." "Believe me, nothing cuts deeper than one man taking another man's woman." "Stanwick was saying to me, this is mine now." "Imagine what I would do with this tonight." "He wasn't gonna get away with it." "When we liked the precinct chief for this, you were ready to put the nail in his coffin." "Our guess is you wanted to pin this on TARU." "You'd head up the internal affairs investigation, send a man like officer Jasper to jail, for life." "Tell me something inspector, was it really worth it?" "Honestly?" "Yeah, yeah it was." "Crime of passion." "What, you come here to insult my family some more?" "No kid." "I came to apologize to you." "I'm sorry." "Look kid, you know what?" "When I was a kid, my father and I got into the wrong gypsy cab, I got beat up, my father got beat up." "I was ten years old." "Still eats at me till this day." " It's not my father." " I know that now." "And I wanted to tell you that your father was a good man Tony." "He was killed trying to save a woman from being raped." "And not many guys would do that, and he did, all right." "There's a lot of honor in that." "I found this in his cab, and wanted to give it to you." "Thought you'd want it." "New York City needs more men like your father." "Thanks."
