1 00:00:05,672 --> 00:00:27,026 Matt, wait up. I need to get your signature to authorize the plumbing repairs. No. We have to find a new vendor. Quote's triple what we have allocated in our budget. But we need showers that actually work soon. I get it, trust me, but until we find someone cheaper, we'll have to send our residents over to the Astoria Center for showers. Already called. They're over capacity too. Well, then check some of the other centers in the area. Someone has to be under capacity. 2 00:00:38,471 --> 00:00:40,306 Matthew Sawyer? 3 00:00:40,373 --> 00:00:41,574 Yeah? 4 00:00:41,641 --> 00:00:55,588 Andrew Dodd with "The Post." Oh, my God, you nearly gave me a heart attack. Sorry. Just want to get a comment on the living conditions at your shelter. Sorry, I don't have time. There have been a lot of complaints filed against you and your center. No heat, no hot water, no food. No comment. No comment? 5 00:00:55,655 --> 00:01:03,797 Sounds like you're admitting that the center you oversee is a total mess. I said, no comment. That means no comment, nothing else. Now, get the hell out of here before I call the police. 6 00:01:13,006 --> 00:01:23,550 [tires screeching] You're coming with me. Whoa. What the-- Come here. Shut up. Shut up! Get in there. Get in! 7 00:01:38,331 --> 00:01:41,634 [laughs] Oh, my--you always have to win, huh? 8 00:01:41,701 --> 00:01:45,038 When breakfast is on the line and you're paying. Do you have time? 9 00:01:45,104 --> 00:01:49,742 I can't. Ella has a doctor's appointment. What do you mean? Why, what's wrong? 10 00:01:49,809 --> 00:01:52,245 She's fine. It's just a normal checkup. 11 00:01:54,414 --> 00:01:55,448 Oh. 12 00:01:56,816 --> 00:01:58,218 How's her basketball team doing? 13 00:01:58,284 --> 00:01:59,519 Undefeated. 14 00:02:02,622 --> 00:02:13,199 I don't know how you do it all by yourself. You just do it. But you're happy. I mean, my only regret is not having two. 15 00:02:14,767 --> 00:02:16,569 Do you ever think about it? 16 00:02:16,636 --> 00:02:31,251 Yeah. Yeah. Sometimes. You know, everybody just keeps talking about how amazing it is. Well, you don't really get it until you actually do it. Until you actually have a kid and then you finally understand what everybody has been talking about. 17 00:02:33,753 --> 00:02:37,123 You know, if you ever wanna talk about this more in depth... 18 00:02:39,092 --> 00:02:40,093 Catch a case? 19 00:02:40,159 --> 00:02:58,978 Yeah. Abduction. Vic's name's Matthew Sawyer, 42. He's director of the center. Who are the suits? The mayor's office. Migrant thing's a hot button issue for them. It's why they asked us to call you guys. Not a problem. Glad to help. What do we know about the abductor? 20 00:02:59,045 --> 00:03:04,617 Not much. According to Sawyer's co-worker, the guy was in and out fast. Okay. Have you gotten a chance to look at the security cameras? 21 00:03:04,684 --> 00:03:10,456 Nope. They were disabled. By the mayor's office. Why? 22 00:03:10,523 --> 00:03:22,335 Footage leaked last week from Central Crosstown. Press bludgeoned him with it. So it's politics over safety. Of course it is. His numbers are in the toilet. So you were saying that the co-worker witnessed the abduction? 23 00:03:22,402 --> 00:03:59,572 Yeah. You'll find her inside. She's the assistant director. Name's Cara Stanfield. Thank you. I heard tires screeching and some guy yelling, so I came out to check. And I saw him knock Mr. Sawyer out with a gun. Hmm. What can you tell us about the abductor? Just that he was tall and covered head to toe in black. But I think his hoodie had some sort of skull on it on the left side. Sorry. It all happened so fast. I wish I could be more helpful. No, you're being very helpful. Not a lot of people would get back to work this quickly after seeing something like that. Thanks, but the truth is, we're so understaffed, taking time off isn't an option. 24 00:04:02,842 --> 00:04:05,111 Well, could you tell us about the vehicle that you saw? 25 00:04:05,178 --> 00:04:11,451 It was dark, maybe gray. Minivan. Is there anybody who'd wanna hurt Mr. Sawyer? 26 00:04:11,517 --> 00:04:19,358 No. No, Matt got along with everybody. He even tried reasoning with the local idiot who keeps harassing all of us. Someone's been harassing you guys? 27 00:04:19,425 --> 00:04:30,370 Yeah. Some local nutjob. Claims we're contributing to the downfall of the country. Threatened to burn the place down if we didn't send these migrants back to where they came from. 28 00:04:32,538 --> 00:05:06,339 Matthew Sawyer was abducted as he was leaving work this morning from a Brooklyn migrant center. Forensics are cold on leads and tire marks left on the scene were not enough to pinpoint a vehicle. All we know so far is, according to Mr. Sawyer's police report, he and the people at the center have been harassed by this guy. James Dunn, 36, ex-army infantry, who was honorably discharged. However, he has multiple felony priors since then and he's currently on probation for stalking and aggravated assault. He's been in and out of Veterans Affairs mental facilities for the past three years. Kelly, what are you reading? 29 00:05:06,406 --> 00:05:08,007 You think this guy is a viable threat? 30 00:05:08,074 --> 00:05:29,696 Based on his hate-filled social media posts, I'd say yes. Over 100 in the past two weeks. Most about immigration being the Left's way of destroying white America. There is one post from last week. Dunn blames Matthew Sawyer for the death of a loved one. So he names our victim and has a perceived grievance with him. That's pretty damning. Do we know if Dunn has any weapons? 31 00:05:29,762 --> 00:05:54,687 None legally, but I'm looking at his most recent encounter report with the NYPD. Migrants at the center claimed he was brandishing a firearm and making threats. But by the time the police arrived, he no longer had it on him. Yeah, he probably ditched it before they showed up. It gets better. According to his DMV registration, Dunn is the owner of a dark gray Caravan. All right, well, that fits the general description of his car. Ping his phone and have Tiff and Scola bring him in. Yeah. 32 00:05:59,125 --> 00:06:04,530 All right, JOC says his phone's pinging in this general area. The guy's tall, average build. 33 00:06:07,066 --> 00:06:08,167 Tiff. 34 00:06:14,974 --> 00:06:16,375 I'll go around. Go. 35 00:06:18,010 --> 00:06:20,146 James Dunn, FBI. 36 00:06:38,498 --> 00:06:48,775 Hey! We just wanna talk. What are you doing? You can't arrest me. I didn't do anything. No, you don't have the right. Sure, we do. You are a felon in possession of a firearm. 37 00:06:51,077 --> 00:06:52,712 You're under arrest. 38 00:06:54,847 --> 00:06:59,285 Wait, wait. You think I-- what, are you crazy? 39 00:06:59,352 --> 00:07:02,555 I didn't kidnap Matthew Sawyer. Why on Earth would I do that? 40 00:07:02,622 --> 00:07:11,631 We've seen your social media posts. You specifically said he must pay for what he's done. He should. Everyone associated with the problem should. 41 00:07:15,334 --> 00:07:18,838 They're the reason my girlfriend's dead. How's that? 42 00:07:18,905 --> 00:07:21,941 She was robbed and shot by illegals a couple months ago. 43 00:07:23,910 --> 00:07:27,547 They were staying at the migrant center. So you abducted Sawyer as revenge? 44 00:07:27,613 --> 00:07:52,238 No. No, I wouldn't waste my time on that clueless bastard. You just stalk him for months. He doesn't deserve to live in peace. He--I want him looking over his shoulder at all times. But I'm not a killer. And I'm done talking. I want a lawyer. 45 00:07:56,275 --> 00:07:58,544 All right, where are we on the GPS records from Dunn's car? 46 00:07:58,611 --> 00:07:59,879 Was he at the abduction site this morning? 47 00:07:59,946 --> 00:08:04,383 Negative--I downloaded it and cross-referenced traffic cam footage from the time of the abduction. This is what I found. 48 00:08:06,652 --> 00:08:14,660 He was filling up his car when Sawyer was grabbed. Great, so we're back to square one. Maybe not. I think I might have found something. Yeah? What do you got? 49 00:08:14,727 --> 00:08:31,711 I've been scouring social media posts about the migrant center. I found this recently uploaded by a reporter named Dodd. Timestamp indicates this was taken moments before Sawyer's abduction. I said, no comment. That means no comment, nothing else. Guy doesn't match the perp's description. It's not about him. It's what's in the background. 50 00:08:34,113 --> 00:08:36,816 Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, the skull. 51 00:08:39,852 --> 00:08:41,053 Can we get a license plate? 52 00:08:46,893 --> 00:08:53,966 India 56929. Plates return to a Black Town and Country reported stolen a few days ago. Does it have GPS? 53 00:08:54,033 --> 00:09:02,275 Yes. Okay. Get me a current location. 21905 Kingsley Park Avenue. Why does that sound familiar? 54 00:09:04,110 --> 00:09:06,212 Because that's Sawyer's home address. 55 00:09:08,147 --> 00:09:11,417 Why would he take Sawyer back to his own house? 56 00:09:20,159 --> 00:09:23,462 First thing we're gonna do is set up a perimeter. The next thing we're gonna do is, we're gonna make-- 57 00:09:25,464 --> 00:09:27,934 Get the hell back, or I kill them! 58 00:09:38,678 --> 00:10:11,510 The neighbors have been evacuated and the perimeter is secure. JOC said that the phone and internet lines are cut, so they can't hack it. Well, we'll establish communication now. Put the snipers in position in case this guy's not in the mood for a chat. Copy. Jubal, we're establishing comms. As soon as we establish communication, we need to run facial rec. Copy that. This is Special Agent Maggie Bell with the FBI. We're gonna put a videophone outside your front door. This is not an attempt for us to get inside the house. We just wanna talk. Move in. 59 00:10:18,351 --> 00:10:20,219 Alpha One is in. 60 00:10:22,421 --> 00:10:29,195 Videophone in position. The phone is now outside your front door. As soon as he opens the door, we're gonna have a clear shot. 61 00:10:31,263 --> 00:10:34,000 Suspect should be approaching the door any second. 62 00:10:37,670 --> 00:10:41,407 Door's opening. Hold. Wait for confirmation. 63 00:10:47,079 --> 00:10:49,348 Hold your fire. He has a hostage. 64 00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:23,182 Hello. Okay, there we go. Start running facial rec. I'm Agent Bell. The place is surrounded. It is in your best interest to put down the weapon and surrender before anyone gets hurt. No. Not until I get my Maria back. 65 00:11:24,850 --> 00:11:26,285 Who's Maria? 66 00:11:26,352 --> 00:11:27,920 Who's Maria? 67 00:11:27,987 --> 00:11:29,021 Who's Maria? 68 00:11:29,088 --> 00:11:34,326 My daughter, Maria Ramirez. What does she have to do with this? 69 00:11:34,393 --> 00:11:39,365 She disappeared from his center. I told-- Shut up! Did you get facial rec? 70 00:11:39,432 --> 00:11:55,815 Still processing. The FBI will find her. But first, you need to let those hostages go. No. No. I am not dumb. I let these people go, you won't even look for her. That's not true. We will. Who am I talking to? What's your name? 71 00:11:59,652 --> 00:12:30,883 Hector. Got him. Hector Ramirez, 38 years old, entered the country a month ago with his daughter Maria. Okay, dig into his file. We wanna know everything about him. Hey, Maggie, keep him talking. We need to know as much as possible if we're gonna defuse this situation. Okay, Hector, I'm giving you my word. Finding Maria is now the number one priority for the FBI. It better be. Because if you don't find her in the next three hours, I am killing this son of a bitch in front of his pregnant wife. 72 00:12:37,256 --> 00:12:46,699 Okay, so this is Maria Ramirez, 13. She was processed into Sawyer's migrant center two weeks ago with her father, the abductor, Hector Ramirez. Are we learning anything else about him? 73 00:12:46,765 --> 00:13:00,079 According to his asylum papers, he's an ex-police officer who fled Mexico after the cartel killed his wife. Great. So he's a trained professional with nothing left to lose. What about his daughter Maria? 74 00:13:00,146 --> 00:13:04,917 I see a police report filed three days ago. Okay, anything on the report that might be helpful? 75 00:13:04,984 --> 00:13:21,700 She disappeared. Father claims the head of the migrant center, Matthew Sawyer, is involved. Although there's no evidence that that allegation is true or that she was abducted in the first place. Hector would strongly disagree. All right, what about Sawyer? Is there any chance Hector's right that Sawyer is involved? 76 00:13:21,767 --> 00:13:48,928 Not from what I can tell. I mean, no prior arrests, no odd internet search history. On the surface, seems like a decent guy. Yeah, well, so did Jeffrey Dahmer, so keep digging. Hector, I know you're an ex-cop, so I know you know the drill. We need more time. Okay, it's likely we're gonna need more than three hours to find Maria. No. No. We both know her chances decrease every minute that passes. You have three hours or I shoot him in the head. 77 00:13:51,163 --> 00:13:52,965 Why do you think Sawyer is involved? 78 00:13:53,032 --> 00:13:59,972 I don't think. I know. What about the cartel? I mean, isn't it possible that they came here, found you-- No. 79 00:14:03,342 --> 00:14:05,945 They sent my wife's head to me in a box. 80 00:14:11,217 --> 00:14:15,454 If they took Maria, I would know. Trust me. 81 00:14:18,157 --> 00:14:20,993 Why do you say it's Sawyer? How? 82 00:14:21,060 --> 00:14:25,431 Maria's friend saw him take her. That's not true. Shut up! 83 00:14:28,367 --> 00:14:49,088 I know--I know that you think I'm crazy, that I'm making this up. But I'm not. I don't think you're crazy. I think you're frustrated because nobody's been listening to you. Not until now. I am listening to you. I'm doing everything I can to find your daughter. Please let the Sawyers go. 84 00:14:57,062 --> 00:14:59,098 Not until I get my daughter back. 85 00:15:04,503 --> 00:15:05,904 What about Maria's friend? 86 00:15:05,971 --> 00:15:07,406 What's her name? 87 00:15:07,473 --> 00:15:08,674 Emma. 88 00:15:10,843 --> 00:15:18,350 Hey, this is Agent Wallace and Agent Scola. They're looking for Maria. They have some questions for you. Okay. 89 00:15:22,154 --> 00:15:27,493 Hey, Emma. Can you tell us how you met Maria? 90 00:15:27,559 --> 00:15:43,108 She was here waiting with us while her-- her dad got better from COVID. That must have been hard for her. It was. She cried a lot. And when did you notice that she was gone? 91 00:15:43,175 --> 00:15:47,112 A few days ago, I saw her leave with Mr. Sawyer. 92 00:15:50,316 --> 00:15:52,084 And you're sure? 93 00:15:52,151 --> 00:15:55,754 Yes. Did you see them together before? 94 00:15:55,821 --> 00:16:01,293 Yes. He used to give her stuff. What type of stuff? 95 00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:22,414 Money and food. Like candy, pastries, that type of stuff. The day he took her, he brought her a cinnamon roll from Calista's Candy Bar. It's across the street. She even shared some with me. Just to be sure, this is the man you saw take Maria? 96 00:16:23,682 --> 00:16:24,883 Yes. 97 00:16:30,189 --> 00:16:36,662 Plenty of people come in here looking like him. It's hard to say. What about her? 98 00:16:36,729 --> 00:16:51,510 Yeah. I saw her in here a few days ago. She was with a man that said he was her father. I had a bad feeling about it. She didn't speak English; he didn't speak Spanish. To tell you the truth, I almost called the cops. Okay, but you're sure that this is not the man that you saw her with? 99 00:16:51,577 --> 00:16:52,878 I can't be sure. 100 00:16:56,582 --> 00:16:59,385 Does that camera work? 101 00:16:59,451 --> 00:17:09,560 Mm-hmm. All right, we're gonna need to see the video now. And next time, if you get a really bad feeling, just call the damn cops. 102 00:17:22,007 --> 00:17:34,319 All right, so this is our new suspect. Appears to be in his late 30s, white, medium height, medium build, and though he bears a passing resemblance to Matthew Sawyer, he is most definitely not Matthew Sawyer. So what about facial rec? 103 00:17:34,386 --> 00:17:38,690 Resolution isn't good enough. You guys need to hear this. What do you got? 104 00:17:38,757 --> 00:17:42,294 That was the physician handling Mrs. Sawyer's pregnancy. And? 105 00:17:42,361 --> 00:17:44,830 She's got some health concerns. 106 00:17:47,699 --> 00:18:03,315 Hey, Maggie, we have a problem. We just talked to Mrs. Sawyer's OB/GYN. She's being treated with a daily IV for extreme blood pressure issues. Without it, any increase in stress can cause her heart rate to rise to a dangerous level. 107 00:18:05,117 --> 00:18:07,052 We need to get her the hell out of there and fast. 108 00:18:16,295 --> 00:18:20,666 All right, folks, we need ideas. Anything that can help us find that man so we can find Hector's daughter. What are we thinking? 109 00:18:20,732 --> 00:18:41,487 If he was bringing Maria food, it means he's either a resident or an employee of the migrant center. Entry and exits require you to swipe a badge. Right, but do we have access to the center's interior security records? No. The database is airgapped. It can only be accessed on-site. Right. You know what? Hey, Tiff, I need you and Scola to head down to the migrant center now. Here's every person who entered or swiped an access card during the times you specified. 110 00:18:46,692 --> 00:18:48,827 I'm not seeing any guys with beards. 111 00:18:50,929 --> 00:18:52,397 Wait, go back. 112 00:18:54,900 --> 00:18:56,668 Check out that guy's neck tattoo. 113 00:18:57,903 --> 00:19:01,607 That's him. He must have shaved for his ID photo. 114 00:19:04,243 --> 00:19:13,785 Jared Gamble. Works for a linen supply company. Badge was swiped rear delivery door, 2:20 p.m., three days ago. Right around the time Maria went missing. 115 00:19:24,530 --> 00:19:26,632 Go, go, go! Let's move! 116 00:19:27,966 --> 00:19:29,368 FBI! 117 00:19:37,342 --> 00:19:40,879 Place is clear. Bedroom's clear. 118 00:19:51,857 --> 00:19:54,159 Tiff, take a look at this. Yeah. 119 00:19:58,630 --> 00:20:00,232 He was here. 120 00:20:03,669 --> 00:20:15,948 Hey, Maggie, I talked to Tiffany and Scola. We are on the right track, we are getting closer, but we have not found Maria yet. You need to keep stalling. See if you can get him to extend the deadline. He won't. But even if he did, we need to get Mrs. Sawyer out of there right now. 121 00:20:17,983 --> 00:20:25,791 All right, we're gonna send you a screen grab of the man we believe abducted Maria. Use it. Let Hector know that we are close and we are trying. 122 00:20:30,128 --> 00:20:35,968 He has to feel that you are empathetic and you care. Copy that. 123 00:20:45,077 --> 00:20:55,020 Hello? - Hector. We've ID'd the man that took your daughter. His name is Jared Gamble. I have the man who took my daughter. No. No, you don't. - You're playing me. 124 00:20:59,424 --> 00:21:02,561 I've gotta get inside. What are you talking about? 125 00:21:02,628 --> 00:21:14,439 The snipers, they all say that they can see the curtain moving. They're not sure that it's Hector, but if I'm inside with the comms... It's risky, Maggie. Yeah, it is. But if we don't get Mrs. Sawyer medical attention, she's gonna lose that baby. 126 00:21:20,245 --> 00:21:22,681 Uh, can you give me the pin in your hair, please? 127 00:21:22,748 --> 00:21:27,019 Thank you. Thank you. I don't like this. 128 00:21:36,962 --> 00:21:40,966 [line trills] Hector, don't hang up on me. 129 00:21:42,300 --> 00:21:50,509 I have the photo of Jared Gamble with Maria on the day that she was taken. I wanna show you. Meet me at the front door. 130 00:21:58,116 --> 00:21:59,451 Okay. 131 00:22:03,288 --> 00:22:06,925 What if he gets emotional? What if he gets desperate? 132 00:22:06,992 --> 00:22:08,593 It's our only move. 133 00:22:18,203 --> 00:22:25,143 Snipers are in position. They get a clear shot at the door, they're gonna take it. The goal is to end this thing as quickly as possible, okay? 134 00:22:25,210 --> 00:22:26,378 Copy. 135 00:22:38,990 --> 00:22:42,227 Open the door. Slow. Slow. 136 00:22:54,473 --> 00:22:56,408 We have a hostage in the line of fire. 137 00:23:01,113 --> 00:23:02,314 Copy that. 138 00:23:05,250 --> 00:23:07,018 It's gonna be okay. 139 00:23:08,587 --> 00:23:10,422 Show me the proof. 140 00:23:12,657 --> 00:23:14,459 Come closer. 141 00:23:19,397 --> 00:23:21,166 How do I know that's real? 142 00:23:21,233 --> 00:23:22,701 Do we have a shot? 143 00:23:22,768 --> 00:23:24,803 Negative. 144 00:23:28,273 --> 00:23:30,308 Because we also found this. 145 00:23:32,711 --> 00:23:35,113 This belongs to Maria, right? This is hers? 146 00:23:35,180 --> 00:23:56,234 We found this in his apartment. And we are looking for this man as we speak. You don't need them anymore. Let them go. No, no, no, no, that's not gonna happen. Without them, Maria is just another missing kid. She's just another missing migrant. You're not gonna look for her. That's not true. No, no, no, no. I will release them when you find my daughter, and I'm not gonna say it again! Ah! Okay. 147 00:23:58,837 --> 00:24:03,742 I understand. I know you want insurance to make sure we find Maria. 148 00:24:08,914 --> 00:24:10,348 Take me. 149 00:24:12,551 --> 00:24:14,753 You'll have more leverage than you do now. 150 00:24:17,756 --> 00:24:27,265 Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay, you come inside. Maggie, you demand that he releases the Sawyers before you enter. OA, do you have a shot? 151 00:24:27,332 --> 00:24:29,201 Negative. 152 00:24:31,770 --> 00:24:50,755 You come inside. No. First you need to let them go. No, no, no, no. You--you come inside. That's not happening. Maggie, you don't need to do this. There is another way. Hector. No, no, no! No, you. No, you! You, you! You come inside right now or she dies! She dies right here! Right now! Come inside right now! Don't. Nobody needs to get hurt. 153 00:24:53,725 --> 00:25:00,465 Get in. Move in. Move in. Stop, stop, stop! Hands up! Hands up! Hands up! I'm not armed. Shut up. Shut up! 154 00:25:02,934 --> 00:25:07,105 Here, zip tie her. Zip tie her! 155 00:25:09,541 --> 00:25:11,042 Make it tight. 156 00:25:16,948 --> 00:25:19,117 Take her vest off. 157 00:25:36,635 --> 00:25:38,203 Move. 158 00:25:39,838 --> 00:25:43,775 You're okay. You're okay. You're okay. We got you. Medics are here. What about my husband? 159 00:25:43,842 --> 00:25:48,914 We're doing everything we can. He's gonna shoot him! Ma'am, ma'am, ma'am. We're doing everything we can to get him out of there. 160 00:25:55,320 --> 00:25:58,990 Let Sawyer go. He has nothing to do with this. 161 00:26:00,992 --> 00:26:10,101 It'll show the FBI that you're a reasonable and decent person. It proves that everything is about finding your daughter, nothing else. 162 00:26:12,604 --> 00:26:17,742 Hector. Think about what happens after we find Maria. 163 00:26:20,078 --> 00:26:24,215 You wanna have a relationship with her. Be with her. 164 00:26:27,585 --> 00:26:29,421 Hold her. 165 00:26:30,822 --> 00:26:37,028 Otherwise, you're gonna be spending the rest of your life behind bars. Talking to her through glass. 166 00:27:04,022 --> 00:27:06,558 Door just swung open. Sniper on the ready. 167 00:27:08,860 --> 00:27:10,395 It's the husband. Go. Move, move. 168 00:27:17,235 --> 00:27:19,104 Where's my wife? Is she okay? 169 00:27:19,170 --> 00:27:28,179 She's fine. She's fine. She's on the way to the hospital. We're gonna get you down there as soon as possible. But I need you to answer some questions for this gentleman about the layout of your house where Hector is standing, where Maggie is located, okay? Things like that, okay? 170 00:27:28,246 --> 00:27:30,315 Yeah, whatever you need. Okay, thank you. 171 00:27:32,183 --> 00:27:37,522 Hector said to tell you that-- Hector said to tell me what? 172 00:27:37,589 --> 00:27:42,427 If you don't find his daughter in the next 30 minutes, he's gonna kill the FBI agent. 173 00:28:01,146 --> 00:28:02,113 Hello? 174 00:28:02,180 --> 00:28:18,129 Hector, this is Agent Zidan. Sawyer gave us your message. We get it. We understand that you're scared, but we do not need to put a time limit on this. We are doing everything that we can. Everything, so please just-- You have 28 minutes and 30 seconds. That's the deal. It is non-negotiable! Hector, please. 175 00:28:32,377 --> 00:28:34,079 You don't wanna do this. 176 00:28:37,115 --> 00:28:40,151 You're right, I don't. 177 00:28:42,654 --> 00:28:46,357 But I will. I promise. 178 00:28:50,562 --> 00:28:57,268 You can still surrender. I spent my whole life protecting that girl. 179 00:29:03,108 --> 00:29:17,922 I have movement near the window. Stand by. Maggie, is that Hector near the window? If it is, use the word hostage in a sentence. That's why we come here to America. It's for her. 180 00:29:22,093 --> 00:29:24,229 It's for her future. 181 00:29:26,131 --> 00:29:44,048 I can't lose her. [crying] I can't. Okay, we're so close to finding her. Yeah, that's what I would say. I've worked sex trafficking cases. You either find the girl right away or-- [sobbing] 182 00:29:52,023 --> 00:29:54,025 I've got a shot. Do we have confirmation? 183 00:29:54,092 --> 00:30:02,300 No. Stand down. We don't know who's near the window. Maggie, I need to know what's going on in there. If Hector is near the curtains, say the word "hostage." I need to hear the word "hostage." 184 00:30:08,306 --> 00:30:10,608 Maggie, do we have a clean shot? 185 00:30:10,675 --> 00:30:12,877 Say the word "hostage." 186 00:30:20,818 --> 00:30:22,287 I'm sorry. 187 00:30:25,423 --> 00:30:26,457 No. 188 00:30:30,762 --> 00:30:43,875 I'm sorry that you're here. And I'm sorry that I need to do this. But there's only two ways out of this. Either they find Maria, or I die and you die. 189 00:30:54,986 --> 00:30:56,654 Jubal, do we have an update? 190 00:30:56,721 --> 00:31:03,428 Yeah, we are close, we are on his tail, but finding her in the next 24 minutes is unlikely. He's not gonna negotiate, okay? 191 00:31:03,494 --> 00:31:28,620 He's not gonna give us more time. We know. All right, have the Deliberate Assault Team get into position. We have to breach now. It is our best option. I want you to talk to SWAT, devise a plan, and get Maggie the hell out of there. It's risky, okay? We have 24 minutes. Maybe we can hold off, see if-- No. We do not know where Gamble is. We cannot roll the dice. OA, get into formation and wait for my command. 192 00:31:31,155 --> 00:31:32,991 Yes, ma'am. 193 00:31:35,426 --> 00:31:44,736 Jared picked up his check a few days ago. Called in sick right after. I haven't seen or heard from him since. You have his cell number? Nope. Well, he's an employee. You don't have a file on him? 194 00:31:44,802 --> 00:31:49,874 I'm a one-man show. Limited time and resources. What does that mean? 195 00:31:49,941 --> 00:31:54,846 All the people I use are subcontractors. Less paperwork. You don't do background checks? 196 00:31:54,912 --> 00:32:05,623 I deal in linen. Well, you've sent a known predator with multiple sex offense convictions into a migrant center full of kids. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, I had no idea, I swear. Look, what day and time did he call in sick? 197 00:32:07,959 --> 00:32:10,128 Tuesday, around 3:00. Okay. 198 00:32:14,065 --> 00:32:21,572 All right. Great. Hey, I got the phone records for the linen company. Yeah. Only one incoming call at the time the owner claims Gamble called in sick. It's a burner. Okay, ping it. 199 00:32:26,444 --> 00:32:37,388 Got it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay. Hey, the signal is on the move. Looks like he's in a vehicle driving on South Street. Yeah, headed towards the Brooklyn Bridge. 200 00:32:41,993 --> 00:32:43,795 We're close, Jubal. What are we looking for? 201 00:32:43,861 --> 00:32:46,597 Yeah, standby. How are we doing on traffic cams? 202 00:32:46,664 --> 00:32:47,999 I think I got something. 203 00:32:50,301 --> 00:32:59,977 Okay. Yeah. Zoom in. Stop right there. Yeah, there he is. Okay. He's in a gray sedan, and Gamble's behind the wheel. 204 00:33:03,448 --> 00:33:05,016 I don't see a gray sedan. There. 205 00:33:15,159 --> 00:33:20,264 Shots fired. Go. I'll clear the car. Suspect is fleeing southbound on foot. 206 00:33:28,773 --> 00:33:31,209 The vehicle's clear. No sign of Maria. 207 00:33:39,851 --> 00:33:41,486 Move, move, move! 208 00:33:51,062 --> 00:33:52,864 Get back! Get back! 209 00:33:55,533 --> 00:34:08,545 Gamble! Drop your weapon. I didn't do nothing. Okay, well, put your gun down. Let's talk about it. It's too late for that. No, it isn't, all right? 210 00:34:08,612 --> 00:34:34,338 Nobody needs to get hurt here. Put the gun down and walk towards me with your hands in the air. I screwed up. I didn't wanna take her, but I couldn't help it. Okay. All right, that's understandable. Okay, you made a mistake. You got a chance here to make up for that, to make this right. 211 00:34:35,940 --> 00:34:40,545 Put the weapon down, Gamble. Tell me where she is. 212 00:34:49,454 --> 00:34:51,489 I'm so sorry. 213 00:35:14,245 --> 00:35:16,314 Okay, where are we with retracing his steps? 214 00:35:16,380 --> 00:35:18,015 Does his cell have a GPS record? 215 00:35:18,082 --> 00:35:28,459 Negative. He turned off his location services, but we ran the vehicle's plate through the traffic cam system. Got a hit in a residential area in Brooklyn 30 minutes before Tiff and Scola confronted him. Okay, is there any connection? 216 00:35:28,526 --> 00:35:29,961 Any other property he owns? 217 00:35:30,027 --> 00:35:31,629 Friend, relative who lives in Brooklyn? 218 00:35:31,696 --> 00:35:41,372 There's a house in his grandmother's name in that area, but according to Social Security records, her checks are now being sent to a 24-hour nursing home. Empty house is a great place to stash a young girl. Or a body. 219 00:35:55,253 --> 00:36:07,665 Hector, we are really close to finding your daughter. We just need you to hang in there a little bit longer. I've been waiting long enough. Hector, we know where she is. We are headed there now. You're lying! Hector, we're the FBI. Think, okay? 220 00:36:07,732 --> 00:36:09,400 We're really good at this, okay? 221 00:36:09,467 --> 00:36:20,378 We're gonna find her soon. She could be in another country by now. But she's not. Listen, she is here. We have already found and neutralized the man who abducted her, so we know that she is nearby. What do you mean? What do you mean neutralized? 222 00:36:20,444 --> 00:36:26,484 It means that we killed him. Hector, he's dead. You're just making things up now. You're not even taking me seriously. 223 00:36:27,885 --> 00:36:28,986 Go, go, go, move. 224 00:36:38,029 --> 00:36:39,497 Go, go, go! 225 00:36:41,799 --> 00:36:42,833 Hector, drop the gun! 226 00:36:46,837 --> 00:36:53,444 Drop the gun! Hector, drop the gun! Stand back! Stand back! It's over. I'll shoot her, I swear. 227 00:37:10,995 --> 00:37:13,864 Maggie, talk to me. Don't come any closer. 228 00:37:25,009 --> 00:37:33,551 Hey. Maria. The victim has been found alive. I need medical assistance ASAP. 229 00:37:48,399 --> 00:37:50,234 Papá? 230 00:37:52,203 --> 00:37:53,437 Maria? 231 00:37:53,504 --> 00:38:02,546 [speaking Spanish] - Maria. Papá? Maria. Maria! [speaking Spanish] 232 00:38:21,899 --> 00:38:26,937 [sobbing] She's alive. She's alive. 233 00:38:45,423 --> 00:38:50,795 Maria is awake. Appears to be doing well, and there's no physical injuries. 234 00:38:52,797 --> 00:38:58,269 Does that-- does that mean that-- Yes, hospital confirmed there's no signs of sexual abuse. 235 00:39:03,474 --> 00:39:14,351 I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I was so-- I was so worried. I was scared that I would never see her again. 236 00:39:16,220 --> 00:39:18,322 I just had to do what I had to do. 237 00:39:22,727 --> 00:39:25,096 The parent has a duty to protect. 238 00:39:26,831 --> 00:39:33,771 And when your child is in danger, you--you don't think. You just act. You just--you just do. 239 00:39:36,741 --> 00:39:38,676 And you don't care about the consequences. 240 00:39:46,650 --> 00:39:48,119 Is there anyone that could take care of her? 241 00:39:48,185 --> 00:39:49,920 Friends, family? 242 00:39:49,987 --> 00:39:51,555 I have a brother in California. 243 00:39:53,057 --> 00:39:57,161 He's a good man. He has a good job. Okay, we'll reach out to him, let him know what's going on. 244 00:39:58,896 --> 00:40:00,264 You have our word. 245 00:40:19,550 --> 00:40:20,851 Hey. 246 00:40:22,153 --> 00:40:24,922 Hey. I just spoke with OA. 247 00:40:27,158 --> 00:40:54,285 I heard you had a hell of a day. Yeah. Luckily, everyone's okay, so. Well, that's good news. Yeah. At the end of the day, you know, the guy just wanted to find his daughter, and he was willing to do anything and everything to make it happen. I get it. I mean, I don't-- obviously, I don't agree with the way he went about it, but... 248 00:40:57,888 --> 00:41:06,931 You know, the whole time I was in there, I kept trying to-- to understand what he was doing. You know, what he was feeling. 249 00:41:10,434 --> 00:41:12,203 It was so intense. 250 00:41:15,573 --> 00:41:21,645 He was just trying to find his kid. There's nothing more intense than that. 251 00:41:29,954 --> 00:41:32,623 Come on. I'll buy you a drink.
