Shooter emptied the gun-- so he was moving and shooting. Only hit the vic four times. She talks to herself. Hey, it works for me. Bullets that missed hit the outside building wall. 2 00:00:35,168 --> 00:00:47,147 Bang, bang, bang, bang. Man, Andre didn't cap him like that. Did too. How you gonna tell me? I saw him... Hey, guys, can I talk to you for a sec? I just want to ask you a few questions. 3 00:01:03,663 --> 00:01:13,106 Grissom... Go ahead, Greg. We got a very young male d.b. by the Dumpster. I'll be right there. 4 00:01:18,311 --> 00:01:23,416 Get your damn hands off me! BRASS: Whoa, whoa. I can't let you touch him. What's your name? 5 00:01:25,919 --> 00:01:34,494 I'm Plummer. Leo. That's my brother right there. They didn't have to do him like that, dawg. I know you know who did this, Leo. Ain't your problem, man. 6 00:01:35,728 --> 00:01:49,442 Whoever did this is gonna get got. Oh, no, don't say stuff like that. Because only two things can happen: you in shackles or you on a slab.

I wasn't chasing the suspect. I was chasing the evidence. I knew the idiot was likely to dump the gun.

To bust some heads. STOKES: Hoo... So, you've got a Samuel Mendez with a cracked skull listed as death imminent, right? Yeah. It's why they kicked it up to Homicide. You think the cops used excessive force here? Well, if they did it's mitigating circumstances. Yeah. 18 00:05:10,977 --> 00:05:14,580 Yeah, well, if they'd've thrown a bunch of feces at me, I would have cracked some skulls too. 19 00:05:18,818 --> 00:05:22,989 This is the last place I thought I'd see a gun. It was found under the victim. 20 00:05:24,691 --> 00:05:26,826 Arresting officer must have done a lousy search. 21 00:05:34,133 --> 00:05:57,890 STOKES: Wow... this is a lot of crap. What, did they squat on cue? BROWN: Overflowing toilet. There's enough ammunition right there. So, the cops bust in to get the prisoners under control when they start throwing raw sewage? ( yelling ) Well, there must have been some real bad asses in here. Look like it got pretty heated. 22 00:06:01,894 --> 00:06:12,004 You want to tell me what happened here? Cops iced the kid.

I'm hoping the family will donate his organs. Tell me about his injuries. He's got blunt-force trauma to the frontal and sphenoid bones. 26 00:07:15,101 --> 00:07:21,874 It fragmented his skull, damaged his temporal arteries and imbedded in his brain. 27 00:07:25,812 --> 00:07:32,084 Well, those are shoe prints on his face, which suggests that he was attacked while he was down. 28 00:07:34,086 --> 00:07:38,791 Well, he came from County lock-up.

He was just losing his baby teeth. X rays show metaphyseal fractures to the right humerus and acromion. They're called corner or bucket-handle fractures. Shake the baby? It's more like snatch and shake. Violent shaking creates shearing forces causing fragment fractures at the end of the growth plate. It's highly specific for abuse. 32 00:09:29,368 --> 00:09:40,813 How old do you think these fractures are? Well, this kind of fracture doesn't usually heal with callus you can easily see. My guess, less than six months. 33 00:09:43,149 --> 00:10:28,894 He is emaciated. He looks drawn. The only thing missing is a swollen belly. It's called cachexia. The soft tissue is diminished and drawn around the skull. The eyes are sunken, and there's prominent tenting where the skin should retract. SIDLE: His ribs are poking through his skin. He starved to death, didn't he? C.O.D. is renal failure due to starvation. His intestinal tract was virtually empty, except for these brown flecks I found. Hepatic steatosis, the liver goes yellow and greasy. Ketoacidosis, fat stores are used for energy, and then rhabdomyolysis-- when muscle is broken down for fuel. Think of the body as digesting itself. 34 00:10:38,170 --> 00:10:48,014 This took weeks. I have to admit, this seems especially cruel and unusual. When kids are involved, it usually is. 35 00:10:52,785 --> 00:11:29,989 It's a 10-by-18-foot cell built for 25 people. We've got 35 mutts and no place to put the extras. Between the yo's, the cholos and the rednecks, it was bound to happen. 35 guys, that's a lot of men to fit in one room. Cops round them up, we process them. It usually doesn't take long, but today we got jammed. What was the problem? Computer went down, plumbing backed up. You name it, we had it. Any rival bangers in the same cell? No. I rechecked the roster. We don't want the yo's killing each other in custody. Why we bother, I'll never know. You ever think an overcrowded cell mixed with bad plumbing was the reason they threw the contents? They don't need a reason. Bad monkeys at the zoo. 36 00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:51,911 So, uh, how did the gun get past security? Arresting officer did a bad search. Don't you search them again when they get to the holding cell? What? Don't you search them again when they get here? Is there something you want to get off your chest? ( wry chuckle ) A gun in a cell is sloppy police work, man. 37 00:11:54,246 --> 00:12:28,180 I don't like what you're implying about me or my men. Then maybe you need to dial down your attitude. A man is brain dead here! I don't care what he was like when he was alive, and neither should you, don't you think? All I know, there's one less bastard I gotta watch my back for. There's five of us, so the odds are in their favor. You're a crime scene tech. I'm law enforcement, which means you don't get to tell me what to do in my jail. If I find out you used excessive force on an unarmed prisoner, you won't have a jail. I think we're done here. I don't think so. Not quite. I'm going to need your armor, your shields, your boots and your batons. Right now! 38 00:12:29,949 --> 00:12:32,151 ( footsteps thudding ) 39 00:12:38,224 --> 00:12:51,003 I, uh... ran John Doe minor's DNA against the Missing Persons database. I'm sorry, no hits. Yeah, I'm not surprised. They didn't care enough to feed him, why would they report him missing? 40 00:12:54,240 --> 00:13:11,991 What's going on in here? The victim had a prior abuse fracture. And you're hoping Child Protective Services investigated? Well, based on the age of the victim, the age of the fracture and the break pattern, I found ten possible matches. Well, it's going to take you forever to go through these alone. 41 00:13:13,492 --> 00:13:32,144 I'll get it done. It took me a long time to get where I was, Sara. Now I feel like I'm starting from scratch. I miss sleeping at night. I miss my colleagues. I miss... What? Being trusted. 42 00:13:37,883 --> 00:13:59,438 What's on the menu today, Warrick? A gun... face shields, vests... batons... Please run the batons first. Why? You thinking bad cop? Well, the batons were the only weapons inside of the cell. Everything else was fixed... ( cell phone ringing ) ...to the floor, to the walls. ( ringing continues ) You gonna get that? 43 00:14:01,407 --> 00:14:11,584 No. Player. Oh, now I'm a player. You make up your mind pretty quick. I'll, uh, page you when I get the results. Yeah? 44 00:14:15,921 --> 00:14:33,973 He was a rough one last night, so I called to check on him. But since I'm here, I can do it in person. Anything else you want to say to me? Have a nice day. Is that it? That's it. ( chuckling ) Am I interrupting? No. No. 45 00:14:35,107 --> 00:14:37,142 Good day. 46 00:14:39,311 --> 00:15:21,053 He's pretty hot. Yeah, well, I think he knows it. Anything on the hairs from the plastic coffin? Ah, yeah, I actually did find one hair with a root tag still attached, and it's a priority run for me as soon as I get something to compare it to. Sara also collected a bunch synthetic hairs. I'm thinking doll, wig, maybe fake fur. I sent them over to Trace. ( clicking ) I went through child abuse cases, looking for a match to the victim's age and fracture. I pulled the X rays of our most likely candidates. Sinus identification is as reliable as fingerprints. Sinuses are unique; they have distinct, scalloped edges. 47 00:15:24,290 --> 00:15:32,231 No match. It's harder to identify children this way because they, uh, develop so quickly. 48 00:15:35,167 --> 00:15:37,169 ( clicking ) 49 00:15:41,106 --> 00:15:47,413 This is it. Bingo. Yep. Frontal and ethmoid sinuses line up perfectly. 50 00:15:49,581 --> 00:16:53,379 Devon Malton, age five, last known residence was a foster home run by a Lorna Tenney. LORNA: So, which one of my kids is in trouble? BRASS: No, you are, Mrs. Tenney. Oh? Which one of my kids lodged a complaint? SIDLE: That happen a lot? Well, it goes with the territory. We're here about, uh, Devon Malton. Well, he hasn't lived here in six months. Since he fractured his arm? CPS investigated. They cleared me. Records show Devon resides here. Well, records are wrong. Mind if we come in and take a look around? I do. If you've got nothing to hide... Oh, save it. Those mind games don't work on me. I deal with the police often enough to know better than to talk to you without my attorney or to let you poke around my things. Look, Family Services says you have this kid. Mm-hmm. They've issued aid checks. Now, who do you expect me to believe? The checks come, I send them back. I've got the copies to prove it. Look, it's either here or at the station. So, you choose.

So what kind of gun are you getting? Plenty of guns at crime scenes. Cops have them, some criminalists... Yeah, cops make great targets. Plus, CSIs get shot at all the time, or didn't they tell you? If this is why you paged me, then I... I got the results on the bin contents. 53 00:17:51,703 --> 00:17:57,109 Well? Are you sure you're okay?

Burnt sienna foundation. The cheap stuff. What about the intestinal tract contents? Lead-based paint chips... last used in 1978. That whole neighborhood looks like it was built in the '70s. Could've come from any one of the apartment buildings or the houses. Which means that sooner or later, you're going to have to be going back out to the hood. Nervous? Hmm...

You don't have to pretend to be interested in me. I'm sorry, that was lame. I guess I was just trying to put you at ease. I know what it's like. What? Living with strangers. Your fate being decided by social workers, advocates, judges... You were in the system. For a while. I've been in foster care for ten years. I moved from one home to the next. Believe me, Mrs. Tenney is one of the good ones. 62 00:21:35,727 --> 00:22:08,493 She's not very cooperative. She's been burned a lot. Look, I know she comes off as tough, but she really cares. Enough to tell us the truth, even if it hurts. You remember a little boy named Devon? Yeah. Cute kid. About five years old. Your foster mom said that Devon left months ago. Is that true? Yeah. Why all the questions? 63 00:22:10,495 --> 00:22:14,666 Did something happen?

That never happens. You could just see how much she loved those boys. Glynnis... did Devon have brothers at the foster home? Yeah. Two older brothers, Kevin and, and Raymond. 67 00:22:50,202 --> 00:22:52,370 What happened to them? 68 00:22:59,010 --> 00:23:59,070 The boys' mother, Candace Malton, served 47 of a 90-day sentence for smashing a brick into her abusive boyfriend's face. Sounds like self-defense to me. Yeah, if she would've walked after the first hit. So, how many times did she actually hit him? Five. It takes battered women a while to see the light, but once they do, there's no going back. Okay, so the Malton boys were placed in foster care while Mom served her sentence. A single mother, she reinstated her parental rights as soon as she got out of jail. After what happened to her son, she didn't want to have anything to do with Child Services. Any idea where the mother is now? No. I've already checked welfare, Medicaid, HUD rolls-- she's in the wind. ( Brass sighs ) I'll put out a BOLO. No offense, but... why didn't you check in to the kids' welfare after the mom was released from jail? 8,000 child abuse/neglect investigations a year. There's only so much we can do. Look, despite her taste in men, in my opinion, Candace Malton was a good mother. One of her sons is dead, and the other two are missing. 69 00:24:00,705 --> 00:24:03,508 What's good about that? 70 00:24:06,745 --> 00:24:27,165 Hey, Mia. Have you finished processing the batons? Yeah, just now. I found blood, epithelials and hair on all of them. There are several DNA sources from everyone but the victim. Which means that a police baton never connected with Sam Mendez.

We are almost finished with our investigation, but I can tell you that the victim's prints don't match the Sam Mendez that's wanted for murder. You telling me we arrested the wrong guy?

Knew you guys would try to pin this on me. I wasn't anywhere near the fish. You sure about that? That's what I said, isn't it? Well, it's good to know, since your boot prints were found on the victim's head. 90 00:33:45,690 --> 00:34:04,409 See, you didn't want to get caught with a gun used in another homicide. A meth dealer, your partner, was found in the desert two weeks ago. Any one of those guys could've carried a gun into the holding cell. It's not likely, unless you can explain how Vincent here got his pubic hair and feces caught in the gun's hammer. 91 00:34:07,311 --> 00:34:09,347 Give us some time. 92 00:34:11,581 --> 00:34:13,751 How's 25 to life sound? 93 00:34:15,719 --> 00:34:40,777 ♪ True respect and ghetto love ♪ ♪ Now raise it up ♪ ♪ 'Cause everything in life gonna come to an end ♪ ♪ Because it... ♪ $40 buys the lips, a hundy gets you south. Goes double for around the world. You got a car? You sure about that? Mm-hmm. 'Cause you don't look like you got a car to me. Take a hike, John. I'm her next appointment. 94 00:34:42,746 --> 00:35:02,467 I didn't do nothing but sit here, Officer. On your feet. Can't believe you're gonna ruin my day for this. You don't have enough to charge me with solicitation. Hey! Watch it, bitch. It's a wig, hair is consistent. Could you open your mouth for me, please? Come on, you can do that in your sleep, honey. Open up or we'll have to stick you with a needle. 95 00:35:09,474 --> 00:35:10,775 ( knocking on door ) 96 00:35:14,445 --> 00:35:24,889 Taking your pet for a walk? I know how much you like my little fetal pig, so I'm giving him to you as an office-warming gift. That is so thoughtful. 97 00:35:26,657 --> 00:35:39,737 Now tell me why you really stopped by. You checking up on me? No. What've you heard? Who talked to you? See? You've been on the job for a week and you're already paranoid. 98 00:35:43,774 --> 00:35:56,787 When I was your right-hand and your left, I always knew that if it hit the fan, that you'd be the one to get dirty. Hey, that's the job. Yeah, that's the job. 99 00:35:58,823 --> 00:36:14,338 Did you ever play politics? I once ran for president of the science club in junior high. Mary Hardy beat me out by one vote. I'm going to guess that you didn't vote for yourself. 100 00:36:17,341 --> 00:36:53,911 I'm not any good at politics. And it's cost me. It's how I lost Nick and Warrick. Your loss was my gain. Yeah. And at least they're in good hands. We been sitting here a long-ass time. What can I say, I like your company. What'd you bring me down here for? I was only trying to make a few bucks. Yeah. ( light knocking ) DNA's a match. 101 00:36:55,479 --> 00:37:18,235 Match to what? To one of your hairs that you left on the body of a little boy. I don't know what you're talking about. BRASS: No? I wonder why anyone would leave one kid with you much less three. You have seven ileals in common with the dead boy. Although that's not enough to say you're related, it's certainly enough to keep digging. You know, I ran your wants and warrants. It kicked out some aliases. 102 00:37:20,438 --> 00:37:44,862 I mean, Devine's a street name. But you're also known as Darlene Lewis, married briefly to a grifter. And a.k.a. Darlene Malton. Hey, that's the same last name as the victim. SIDLE: To starve anyone is beyond me, but to do it to a child... a relative, is unforgivable. 103 00:37:55,439 --> 00:38:25,536 Wasn't even like that. My half-sister Candy left me with them bad-ass kids and no money. How am I supposed to feed them? You don't look like you've missed any meals to me. Know what, skinny bitch, go to hell. I just scrape by. If you couldn't take care of them, why didn't you just turn them over to Social Services? I promised I wouldn't. Little D got hurt last time. She would've killed me. What's she going to do when she finds out her son is dead? I did the best I could. Okay, where are the boys now? 104 00:38:28,406 --> 00:38:43,621 Uh-uh, you're not gonna blame this on me. I want a lawyer. You can have a lawyer after you give me the address. But let me tell you something-- if those boys die, I'm going to make it my business to see you get the death penalty. 105 00:38:53,698 --> 00:39:11,048 There's no one in the house. Where are the kids? I don't know, let's check around back. So, turns out that Mom was sending money after all. I found this letter inside mailed from Seattle with 300 bucks in it for the kids' upkeep. And that skanky bitch used it to buy a new TV. 106 00:39:53,691 --> 00:39:57,795 SIDLE: Paint chips. SANDERS: Smells like a toilet. 107 00:40:04,702 --> 00:40:13,477 Yeah, she never let them upstairs. Kevin, Raymond... Oh, no. I'm going to call an ambulance. 108 00:40:18,115 --> 00:40:24,488 He's alive! We need water and blankets. Oh, my gosh. 109 00:40:26,257 --> 00:40:38,202 Hey. Are you Kevin or Raymond? It's all right. It's all right, you're safe now. It's okay. 110 00:40:49,880 --> 00:41:02,526 So, Seattle P.D. has located Candace Malton. They're putting her on a plane tonight. They said she's pretty broken up. She left her kids with her hooker cousin. She should've known better. 111 00:41:04,195 --> 00:41:12,169 Where are you going to take her first, the hospital or the morgue? Guess I might as well get it over with. I mean, once she sees the kids she's not going to want to leave them. 112 00:41:15,306 --> 00:41:22,213 What do you think? Go with the living, Jim. The dead can wait. 113 00:41:30,554 --> 00:41:33,557 ( computer beeps ) 114 00:42:05,589 --> 00:42:06,557 ( computer beeps ) 115 00:42:10,261 --> 00:42:12,296 Captioning sponsored by CBS, C.S.I.
