LaRoi "The Fists of" Steele. BROWN: WFB welterweight champion. 19 wins. One loss. Boxers have died in the ring before. Why is this one a crime? Casino management got a heads-up from the sports book. Five hours before the opening bell, Steele goes from a two-to-one favorite to a five-to-one underdog. Fight fixing? Yeah. That's a felony. And, if death occurs during commission of a felony, that's a murder. LaRoi "The Fists of" Steele。BROWN：WFB 次中量級冠軍。19 勝。1 敗。拳手之前都喺擂台死過。點解今次係犯罪？賭場管理層收到體育博彩嘅風聲。開賽前五個鐘，Steele 由二比一嘅熱門變成五比一嘅冷門。打假拳？係。呢個係重罪。而且，如果喺犯重罪期間有人死咗，就係謀殺。

Okay. What are we looking for? Blinding agents in the Vaseline, stimulants in the water... So... basically, everything goes to tox. Yeah. Nice sport. Well, it's only dirty if you make it dirty.

REFEREE: Everybody knew they hated each other. They fought two times before. Title wasn't even on the line tonight. Just pride. How'd the other fights go down? I didn't get to ref them, but I saw them... $39.95 a pop. Damn pay-per-view's just like stealing, but they were good fights. LaRoi won both of them. First one was a knockout in the eighth off this sweet right hook. The other was a... a TKO in the tenth, yeah. He really dropped the hammer on Molina that time. Well, evidently, Molina hammered back tonight. Two previous wins by knockout. Tonight, he dies. What's up with that? What do you mean? Did you notice anything out of the ordinary about either fighter? Slowed reactions, unusual strength? 裁判：個個都知佢哋憎對方。之前打過兩次。今晚連冠軍腰帶都冇得爭。只係為咗尊嚴。之前嗰兩場點樣？我冇做裁判，但我有睇... 每場 $39.95。該死嘅付費電視簡直係搶錢，但係啲比賽好好睇。LaRoi 兩場都贏。第一場第八回合用呢個靚嘅右勾拳 KO。另一場係... 第十回合技術性擊倒，係。佢嗰次真係狠狠咁打低 Molina。好明顯，今晚 Molina 還擊返。之前兩次都係 KO 贏。今晚，佢死咗。點解會咁？你咩意思？你有冇留意到任何一個拳手有異常？反應變慢，異常力量？
All I noticed is that boy took one hell of a beating. 我只係留意到個細路被打得好甘。

I got a gun. 我有槍。
Make that two. 而家變兩支。
WILLOWS: Put up a couple of booths, we could have ourselves a gun show out here. Disposable firearms. They know we can't link them to the weapons if we can't find the weapons on them. MAN: Let's go! Smith & Wesson .40. High end. They're stealing their way to better guns. And bringing them to Vegas for target practice. Great. WILLOWS：放多幾個 booth，我哋可以喺度搞個槍展。即棄槍械。佢哋知道我哋如果搵唔到佢哋身上有槍，就冇辦法將啲槍同佢哋連繫起嚟。男：走啦！Smith & Wesson .40。高檔貨。佢哋一路偷一路換更好嘅槍。仲帶嚟拉斯維加斯做射擊練習。正。
That's everything he's got. 呢啲就係佢所有嘢。
What's it highlighted for? It's a Riviera necklace. We loaned it to a couple for the fight, and they refuse to return it until we return the ring that they brought in for cleaning. Which was stolen along with the other items, right? Exactly. And they won't leave until we get this sorted out. Can you help me out here? Sorry. Mediation's not really my thing. Thanks. Mm-hmm. 點解要 highlight 佢？係一條 Riviera 頸鏈。我哋借咗俾一對夫婦用嚟睇比賽，佢哋拒絕歸還，直到我哋歸還佢哋帶嚟清潔嘅戒指。而嗰隻戒指同其他物品一齊被偷咗，係咪？完全正確。佢哋話搞唔掂呢件事就唔走。你可唔可以幫吓我？唔好意思。調解唔係我強項。多謝。Mm-hmm。
O'Riley? Stokes. Listen, I'm at a smash and grab. Lots of glass, a little blood. Do me a favor: Check the local hospitals. Anyone comes in with a forearm laceration, it could be our guy. Thanks, man. O'Riley？Stokes。聽住，我喺一個搶劫現場。好多玻璃碎，少少血。幫我個忙：check 吓本地醫院。如果有人因為前臂撕裂傷入院，可能就係我哋要搵嘅人。唔該晒，兄弟。
So how many more days you gonna be here? I promoted this match, Mr. Grissom. I spent 16 months of my life stroking fighters, managers, handlers, and kissing a whole lot of ass that never got past junior high. And I resent the implication that the fight was fixed, or that LaRoi Steele's death was anything other than a tragedy. These photographs are from...? The last Steele-Molina fight. What, does he use them for motivation? And for show. Boxing is theater. Well, according to your poster, this fight was about revenge. Boxers fight for money. The rest of it is just hype. 你仲會喺度幾多日？呢場比賽係我 promotion 嘅，Grissom 先生。我用咗 16 個月嘅人生去安撫拳手、經理、助手，仲要 kiss 好多連初中都未畢業嘅人嘅 ass。我好唔鍾意你暗示場比賽係打假拳，或者 LaRoi Steele 嘅死係任何嘢除咗悲劇。呢啲相係...？上次 Steele-Molina 比賽嘅。點，佢用嚟做動力？同埋用嚟 show off。拳擊係一場戲。根據你張 poster，呢場比賽係關於復仇。拳手為錢而打。其他嘢都只係炒作。
These Mr. Molina's? Yeah. From tonight's fight? Yeah. Technically, after a fight, those gloves become property of the boxing commission. Right now, they're evidence, so they belong to me. What do you think you're going to find on those gloves? Liniment? Like Sonny Liston used to blind Cassius Clay? The sport has come a long way since then. It's still two skulls and four fists. It hasn't come that far. 呢啲係 Molina 先生嘅？係。今晚比賽嘅？係。嚴格嚟講，比賽之後，呢啲手套就變成拳擊委員會嘅財產。而家，佢哋係證物，所以屬於我。你覺得你會喺呢啲手套上面搵到咩？藥油？好似 Sonny Liston 用嚟整盲 Cassius Clay 嗰啲？呢項運動由嗰時開始已經進步咗好多。但都係兩個頭殼同四隻拳頭。冇進步到咁多。
What did you find? GRISSOM: What appears to be a unique metal: mercury. Like in a thermometer? Amongst other things. 你搵到咩？GRISSOM：似乎係一種獨特嘅金屬：水銀。好似溫度計入面嗰啲？仲有其他嘢。
Looks like it was fight night for a lot of people. It sure does. And some guys get paid a million bucks for it. 睇嚟今晚對好多人嚟講都係拳擊之夜。真係似。而有人可以為咗呢樣嘢賺一百萬美金。
Sorry to keep you waiting but, uh... commission rules, you know? Before and after a fight. Boxing and drugs don't mix, you know? 唔好意思要你等，但係，uh... 委員會嘅規矩，你明啦？比賽前後。拳擊同毒品唔可以撈埋一齊，你明啦？
All yours. 全部俾你。
So... ¿que onda? What's the crime lab want with me? Well, for starters, we need to see your hands. Why? Is that a "no"? No. 所以... ¿que onda? 犯罪實驗室搵我做咩？首先，我哋要睇吓你對手。點解？呢個係「唔得」嘅意思？唔係。
One more. 仲有一張。
Who do you think you're looking at-- Felix Trinidad? Who is that? Felix Trinidad is a fighter who was once accused of dipping his wraps in ice water before a fight. It turns the tape and gauze into a hardened cast. It's like punching with concrete. And it also shreds your hands. Mine are clean. A fighter's lost his life. We're just making sure that there was no unfair advantage. All I did was out-punch LaRoi. Okay, you think I wanted it to go down like this? I mean, people are going to remember me now like Ray Mancini when he killed that Korean guy. That's my legacy now. 你以為你睇緊邊個——Felix Trinidad？邊個嚟㗎？Felix Trinidad 係一個拳手，曾經被指控喺比賽前將繃帶浸喺冰水入面。咁會將膠帶同紗布變成硬化嘅石膏。就好似用石屎打人。而且仲會整爛你對手。我對手好乾淨。有個拳手死咗。我哋只係想確保冇唔公平嘅優勢。我只係打贏咗 LaRoi。好，你覺得我想搞成咁？我意思係，人哋而家會記住我，好似 Ray Mancini 打死嗰個韓國人咁。呢個就係我嘅 legacy。
Nah, this-this wasn't my fault, all right? He brought it upon himself talking all that trash saying I could never beat him. Look... he should have never came out in the seventh round. He could barely stand up. I knew it was over right then. So why did you keep hitting him? Because real fighters don't stop hitting until somebody makes them, all right? When you're in the ring, your life's in the ref's hands. 唔，呢個唔係我嘅錯，好冇？係佢自找嘅，講咁多廢話話我永遠打唔贏佢。睇吓... 佢第七回合根本唔應該出嚟。佢幾乎企唔穩。我嗰吓就知完咗。咁點解你仲繼續打佢？因為真正嘅拳手唔會停手，直到有人逼佢停，好冇？當你喺擂台入面，你條命喺裁判手上。
Now, one word from that ref, and I would have stopped. 只要裁判一句說話，我就會停。
But he never gave the word. 但佢從來冇講過。
How we doing, Bobby? Hey. Well, good news. All the bullets pulled from the vic are from the same gun. Six right, .380. The bad news? We're 0 for two matching the bullets to the guns y'all recovered. Um, I did find something, though, on one of them shells, if you want to take a look. It's set up for you over there. 點樣呀，Bobby？喂。好消息。所有從死者身上拎出嘅子彈都係同一支槍射出嚟。六粒 .380。壞消息？我哋將子彈同你哋搵到嘅槍做比對，兩支都唔中。Um，不過我喺其中一粒彈殼上面發現咗啲嘢，如果你想睇吓。喺嗰邊 set 好咗俾你。
Could be biological. I'll send it to trace. Well, I hope it gets you somewhere, 'cause all we got here is strike three. 可能係生物樣本。我會送去化驗。好，我希望幫到你，因為我哋呢邊已經三振出局。
BROWN: Brass, it's Warrick. I need as much information as you can give me on the referee. Hey, Sara. Hey. I'll be right there. BROWN: All right. I have something to show you. BROWN：Brass，係 Warrick。我需要你俾到幾多資料就俾幾多關於個裁判。喂，Sara。喂。我即刻嚟。BROWN：好。我有啲嘢俾你睇。
We gave Molina a ride in. You did? He didn't say much, which is no big surprise, considering. There's not much in here, but, uh... I know how you like to see everything. Thanks. 我哋車咗 Molina 返嚟。你車咗佢？佢冇講好多嘢，考慮到情況，都唔出奇。入面冇咩嘢，但係，uh... 我知道你中意睇晒所有嘢。多謝。
We checked vitals, cleaned his lacerations, and he wanted his hand wraps cut off, so we cut them off. Is this it? Yeah. 我哋 check 咗生命體徵，清理咗佢嘅傷口，佢想我哋剪咗佢對手嘅繃帶，所以我哋剪咗。就係呢啲？係。
He autographed it. Nah, that's the inspector's signature. Whoever watched him wrap up. It looks like there's some kind of metal in the gauze. 佢簽咗名。唔係，係檢查員嘅簽名。係睇住佢包繃帶嗰個人。紗布入面似乎有啲金屬。
Mercury, maybe? Well, there's no mercury in any of our instruments. We're fully digital. 可能係水銀？我哋所有儀器都冇水銀。我哋係全數碼。
How do you think it got there? I don't know. Massive soft tissue damage, severe facial fractures. Are they letting guys go at each other with clubs these days? Only on cable. It never ceases to amaze me the damage one human being can inflict on another. Or how much damage a human body can sustain. A heavyweight can land a punch at 1,000 pounds per square inch. The energy of the punch is transferred through the cerebrospinal fluid, compressing the brain against the skull, temporarily disrupting neural activity. Like a short circuit. Too many short circuits, the brain shuts down. And hence, a knockout. This guy should have been so lucky. 你覺得點樣會喺度？我唔知。大面積軟組織損傷，嚴重面部骨折。而家係咪俾人用棍互毆？只有有線電視先會。人類可以對另一個人造成嘅傷害，永遠都令我驚訝。或者人類身體可以承受幾多傷害。一個重量級拳手可以打出每平方英寸 1000 磅嘅拳。拳頭嘅能量通過腦脊液傳遞，將大腦壓向頭骨，暫時中斷神經活動。好似短路咁。太多短路，大腦就會 shutdown。然後就係 KO。呢條友應該算好彩。
This, uh... bruising under the chin seems heavy. Yeah, I thought so, too. I did a postmortem angiogram. 呢個，uh... 下巴下面嘅瘀傷似乎好嚴重。係，我都係咁諗。我做咗死後血管造影。
It's a basilar subarachnoid hematoma-- the result of a massive vertical blunt force trauma to the chin. The sudden forced rotation of the neck tears the vertebral artery, and blood pours out into the surrounding soft tissue. It's called an uppercut. ♪ You say tomato... ♪ and I say "cause of death." Gil, I never had you pegged as a fight fan. I'm not, really. My first year as a criminalist, I thought boxing would be a good place to observe live blood spatter. So, I went to a couple of bouts. There wasn't much spatter. Some interesting bruise formations, though. So this is a socially acceptable live-subject laboratory for you? Yeah. Not in this case. 係基底蛛網膜下腔血腫——由下巴受到巨大嘅垂直鈍力創傷造成。頸部突然被迫旋轉，撕裂椎動脈，血液湧入周圍嘅軟組織。呢個叫做上勾拳。♪ 你話番茄... ♪ 我就話「死因」。Gil，我從來冇諗過你會係拳擊迷。其實唔係。我做刑事鑑證員第一年，我諗拳擊係一個好好嘅地方去觀察活體血濺。所以我去睇咗幾場比賽。冇乜血濺。不過有啲有趣嘅瘀傷形成。所以對你嚟講，呢個係一個社會接受嘅活體實驗室？係。但呢次唔係。
Thank you. Preliminary tox? Yeah. 多謝。初步毒理化驗？係。
Professional athlete. Would have expected performance enhancers-- creatine, dianobol. This man had sufentanil in his system. Sufentanil? A sedative? Yeah. So, if the fighter won't take a dive... ...help him take a dive. 職業運動員。會預期有表現增強劑——肌酸、大力補。呢個人體內有舒芬太尼。舒芬太尼？鎮靜劑？係。所以，如果拳手唔肯打假拳... 就幫佢打假拳。
What's my cousin got to do with the fight? Your cousin bet 20 large on Javier Molina at five-to-one against. Hey, he's always been a lucky guy. Yeah, I know, I'm sure he is. But you know how this works. I mean, you hear the fight's fixed, you tip off your cousin for a piece of the action, he tells a couple of friends, so on, so on. They make a bet at the last minute, and the odds go south. Hey, big fight, money moves around. Oh, yeah, that's cool. This is Vegas. Money flows. As long as it doesn't flow out of your pocket. Maybe that's why you let the fight go on so long. Yeah, you see a fighter in trouble, you give him a standing eight. He comes out a winner, you're in the poorhouse. So, what are you saying? That, if I'd stopped the fight, LaRoi Steele would still be alive? Huh? You charging me with something? No. Not yet. You know where to find me. Randy Wallace? I'm Detective O'Riley. This is Nick Stokes of the crime lab. Hi, there. Where'd you get the cut on your forearm, man? You practicing for a job at Benihana? Hey, this is a hospital. I got doctor-client privilege here, huh? Well, you don't get any privileges, Randy. You're wearing stolen property. 我表弟同場比賽有咩關係？你表弟用五比一嘅賠率買咗兩萬大元 Javier Molina 贏。喂，佢成日都咁好運。係，我知，我肯定佢係。但你知呢啲嘢點運作。我意思係，你聽到比賽係打假拳，你通風報信俾你表弟，等佢分一杯羹，佢話俾幾個朋友聽，如此類推。佢哋最後一刻落注，賠率就跌。喂，大比賽，錢會周圍走。哦，係，冇問題。呢度係拉斯維加斯。錢會流動。只要唔係由你口袋流出嚟就得。可能呢個就係你俾場比賽打咁耐嘅原因。係，你見到拳手有麻煩，你俾佢一個 standing eight。佢贏咗出嚟，你就窮到燶。所以你想講咩？如果我停咗場比賽，LaRoi Steele 就會仲喺度？吓？你係咪要告我？唔係。暫時未。你知道去邊度搵我。Randy Wallace？我係 O'Riley 探員。呢位係犯罪實驗室嘅 Nick Stokes。你好。你前臂條傷口喺邊度整㗎，兄弟？你係咪練習緊去 Benihana 打工？喂，呢度係醫院。我有醫生-病人保密權，係咪？你冇任何特權，Randy。你身上戴住嘅係賊贓。

Did you get anywhere with that mercury? Yeah. Ensenada, Mexico. Molina has a personal physician down there. It turns out that mercury is used in a folk remedy for empacho. It's a chronic stomach condition. And Molina has it? Medical history confirms it. The guy eats metal. It's not the eating that will get you. The poison's in the mercury vapor. It's toxic. Well, I guess we're left with the sedative. Any luck? Greg's working on it. Three guns found at the scene. None match the bullets recovered from the victim. What does that tell us?

Technically, a former Snakeback who shed his skin and worked his way into the real world-- record producer, clothing designer, sports agent. Why didn't you get a warrant for his room?

See, what LaRoi needed was a giver, not a taker. That's why he came to me, The Man, so I could stand by his side and give him honest representation. Police. Another thing that The Man understands, because he comes from the same place as today's athletes. I'm Detective Vega. This is Catherine Willows from the Crime Lab. Hello. We'd like to ask you a few questions. Well, the Man ain't got nothing to hide. We're looking for members of the Snakebacks. A Timothy Fontaine, in particular. CATHERINE: I guess Tiny's mother can be proud of her son for one thing. He sure knows how to clean a room. Well, there is one Snakeback still in town. Who's that? That guy right over there. What's his dealio? Man, I take care of my people. That is Jerome Anderson-- AKA "The Man." The Man? The Man. Technically, a former Snakeback who shed his skin and worked his way into the real world-- record producer, clothing designer, sports agent. Why didn't you get a warrant for his room?

Did you get ahold of that cut man? Yeah. We found sufentanil in a bottle of coagulant in the guy's kit. Doesn't make sense. If the cut man did it, why would he hold on to the evidence? I was thinking the same thing. I'm not convinced he actually knew it was in his kit. The prints that I got off of the bottle came back to... Gerry Barone, the victim's manager.

So what made you dope up LaRoi Steele? We found your prints on a bottle of coagulant. It was laced with a sedative. Found it in the cut man's kit. I was trying to save LaRoi. By drugging him? We kept it out of the press but, in their last fight, Molina hurt him bad. How bad? The signs were all there in training-- sagging eye, drooping shoulder, brain damage down the road. LaRoi couldn't handle another beating. But I couldn't talk him out of this fight. Molina got under his skin. LaRoi wouldn't let it go. I taught him not to quit. So what made you dope up LaRoi Steele?

There was this one case where a boxer put lead shot in his gloves to increase his punching power. And also ancient Greek and Roman pugilists used a glove weighted with metal, called a "cestus."

Those circular pieces of leather that you found in Molina's locker are the same diameter as a 14-gauge needle. Well, mercury's incredibly dense. It could easily be contained in the leather and foam of a boxing glove. The boxing gloves weighed eight ounces, so the question is, would a few ounces of mercury be enough to cause the damage that we observed on the victim? Right. I smell an experiment.
