Well, maybe Dad gave it to him behind Mom's back. 92 00:27:10,895 --> 00:27:49,034 Or... maybe Todd wasn't the shooter. True. Presence of GSR only places Todd in the vicinity of the gunfire.

This does have something to do with the case, right? You don't trust me? 100 00:30:26,824 --> 00:30:44,042 ( sighs ) ( grunts ) ( Brown groans ) You're such a drag. ( Sidle chuckles ) Stay there a minute. 101 00:30:45,843 --> 00:30:56,187 Excuse me. Hi. Judy, right? Judy, would you like to be part of a little experiment? I'm a secretary. Besides, I heard what you did to Greg's feet. You'll keep your shoes on, I promise. 102 00:30:57,622 --> 00:31:07,098 Can I get up? No. Spin around. Judy, would you take Warrick by the right arm and try and drag him across the room? Hi, Judy. Hi. 103 00:31:07,865 --> 00:31:54,212 ( grunting ) Hey, I-I like it gentle, okay? ( grunts ) Ooh. ( grunts ) ( exhales ) Thank you, Judy. You've been a big help. Thanks so much. You can go back to the water cooler. You want to tell me what's going on here? Stewart Bradley had a dislocated shoulder postmortem. He's about the same weight as you. How does your shoulder feel? You saw her dragging me around. You know, I'm glad I could help. I, uh... I'm late for the chiropractor's. I'll send you the bill. I get it. I'm bigger than Judy. In order to get momentum, she had to start and stop. Which could explain Stewart Bradley's postmortem dislocated shoulder. Especially if he was dragged by somebody with limited upper body strength. Where does that get us? 104 00:31:55,213 --> 00:31:59,617 Well, maybe Jan Branson. She's about Judy's size. 105 00:32:00,385 --> 00:32:08,192 Why would Jan Branson shoot her boyfriend? He stabbed her son. Motive? 106 00:32:10,461 --> 00:32:29,981 I don't know. But mothers protect their children, don't they? Okay... okay, so... she sends Todd home, not knowing the severity of his wound. She buries her boyfriend's body. She ditches the knife, which we still haven't found. She hides the revolver... So perhaps the evidence is in Mrs. Branson's hands. 107 00:32:41,693 --> 00:32:56,741 Mrs. Branson, you got a minute? Uh... Eric and I are leaving town. Well, your ex has been picked up on an unrelated matter. Even if he makes bail, you still got a day or two head start. Good. Ms. Branson, may I see your hands? Excuse me? Could be important. Palms up, please. 108 00:33:18,096 --> 00:33:26,437 Hi, pal. Hi. Hey, Eric. Hi. Hey, Eric. This is Mr. Grissom. We work together. May I see your hands, please? 109 00:33:27,271 --> 00:33:34,345 We have to get going. As soon as Eric shows Mr. Grissom his hands, you're on your way. Palms up. 110 00:33:45,123 --> 00:33:51,362 Eric... I need to know how you burned your hand. 111 00:33:53,631 --> 00:34:00,705 Look at Mr. Grissom, Eric. Not your mother, okay? Ms. Karpell. Eric, it's okay to answer the question. 112 00:34:01,906 --> 00:34:04,108 I burned it on an iron. 113 00:34:04,876 --> 00:34:09,213 BRASS: I think something a lot more dangerous than that burned your hand. 114 00:34:09,981 --> 00:34:13,784 We recovered a gun... in the park. 115 00:34:15,719 --> 00:34:59,697 Your burn indicates that your hand was over this gap when the gun was fired. ( gasp ) I followed Todd to the park. Todd, I got your e-mail. What's up? We're not moving again. I want you to tell Mom you're passing on that promotion. You should discuss this with your mother. She'll do whatever you say. You don't understand. I am not leaving my friends 'cause of you. Todd, this has nothing to do with me. Todd, no! No, come on! Let go! ( gunshot ) ( yells ) ( grunting ) ( grunts ) ( gunshot ) ( grunts ) ( gunshot ) ( groans ) Got to get home. You got to hide the body. 116 00:35:01,199 --> 00:35:05,503 ( grunting ) I was just looking out for my brother. 117 00:35:12,643 --> 00:35:34,398 I, uh, swabbed the pistol grip of the revolver. The DNA from the suspect's perspiration isn't a match to Todd's, but it is male, with eight markers in common and familial relationship. GRISSOM: We found gunshot residue on Todd's jacket. We assumed that Todd fired the gun. But I think maybe he was standing next to you when you fired the gun. 118 00:35:36,467 --> 00:35:50,915 You didn't go to the park to stop Todd, did you? He went to the park to stop you. Eric, what's up? TODD: Whoa, whoa! Eric, Eric! Eric, don't be stupid. I'm not moving again. Not 'cause of him! 119 00:35:51,849 --> 00:36:06,597 Todd, let go! ( gunshot ) ( grunting ) Give it to me! ( grunts ) ( groans ) ( yells ) ( groaning ) ( groans ) ( panting ) ( groans ) ( panting ) Go home! 120 00:36:08,533 --> 00:36:10,902 Where'd you get the revolver, Eric? 121 00:36:12,069 --> 00:36:13,771 JAN: From me. 122 00:36:18,509 --> 00:36:23,681 BRASS: Ms. Karpell... Eric, why don't we step out in the hall for a few minutes. 123 00:36:33,257 --> 00:37:24,942 So the gun was in your possession, and you didn't say anything. I, um... I had it in a lockbox. And, uh... when I got that call from John a couple days ago, I took it out and I put in my nightstand. I didn't even know it was missing until this morning. And-and then I thought that John must have gotten in the house and taken it. I... I was so sure that he was the one who killed Stewart. I've spent the last ten years looking over my shoulder every day. BRASS: Your boyfriend was found carrying a knife the night he died. I spoke to some of his friends and associates, and no one ever remembers him carrying a knife. SIDLE: Ms. Branson? You warned your boyfriend about your ex-husband, didn't you? He asked me what was wrong, and I shouldn't have said anything. He panicked. He-he overreacted. He started carrying a knife. 124 00:37:26,444 --> 00:37:42,793 What's gonna happen to Eric? He'll be remanded to a juvenile detention center, awaiting trial. And then? BRASS: If he's convicted of a homicide, he'll be sent to a state custodial facility until he's 21. 125 00:37:45,396 --> 00:37:47,632 ♪ ♪ 126 00:38:20,498 --> 00:38:40,951 Where we at, Greg?

Very nice presentation, Greg. 129 00:39:09,547 --> 00:39:21,759 What about the others? They all participated. They even bragged about it. Well, only six of the 12 left behind their epithelials when their skin made contact with the vic's clothing.
