- Like a jogger.

180
00:08:17,263 --> 00:08:19,599
I don't know. He was wearing a hoodie.

181
00:08:19,665 --> 00:08:22,101
- What color?

182
00:08:22,168 --> 00:08:24,203
- Dark blue.

183
00:08:27,106 --> 00:08:28,574
- There's your jogger.

184
00:08:28,641 --> 00:08:30,209
No CCTV footage, but I did manage

185
00:08:30,276 --> 00:08:32,111
to find a restaurant with security cameras

186
00:08:32,178 --> 00:08:34,780
pointed towards the right stretch of Central Park West.

187
00:08:34,847 --> 00:08:37,183
The blue fiber came back as a cotton-poly blend

188
00:08:37,250 --> 00:08:40,152
which is consistent with the sweatshirt he's wearing,

189
00:08:40,219 --> 00:08:43,923
and there's Santos, from 10:25 to 10:42.

190
00:08:43,990 --> 00:08:45,825
He never left his car.

191
00:08:45,892 --> 00:08:47,159
- Which alibis him out.

192
00:08:47,226 --> 00:08:48,961
- I'm starting to wonder.

193
00:08:49,028 --> 00:08:51,163
I mean you would expect a murder like this

194
00:08:51,230 --> 00:08:53,032
to be more rage-filled.

195
00:08:53,099 --> 00:08:54,233
You know, with signs of a beating

196
00:08:54,300 --> 00:08:56,102
or gunshot wounds to the face.

197
00:08:56,168 --> 00:08:57,770
We have none of that.

198
00:08:57,837 --> 00:08:59,672
- Maybe the killer saw Santos' post

199
00:08:59,739 --> 00:09:02,141
and left that message to throw us off?

200
00:09:02,208 --> 00:09:03,809
- I was thinking the same thing.

201
00:09:03,876 --> 00:09:05,778
In fact, aspects of this remind me of a case

202
00:09:05,845 --> 00:09:07,280
I was consulting on last year.

203
00:09:07,346 --> 00:09:09,081
- What case?

204
00:09:09,148 --> 00:09:11,751
- The death of a Michigan state senator, in Lansing.

205
00:09:11,817 --> 00:09:13,753
- I read that. A mugging gone wrong?

206
00:09:13,819 --> 00:09:15,721
- Well, those were the official findings,

207
00:09:15,788 --> 00:09:18,224
but this guy had some really shady dealings,

208
00:09:18,291 --> 00:09:21,827
and I always thought that the murder was more planned.

209
00:09:21,894 --> 00:09:23,696
- Do you think we're dealing with the same killer?

210
00:09:23,763 --> 00:09:25,164
- I don't know, but the senator died

211
00:09:25,231 --> 00:09:27,033
from a single shot to the heart,

212
00:09:27,099 --> 00:09:30,102
and a jogger was caught on video fleeing the scene.

213
00:09:30,169 --> 00:09:32,905
- Here's the jogger from the Michigan case.

214
00:09:35,908 --> 00:09:37,843
- I mean it could be the same guy.

215
00:09:37,910 --> 00:09:39,679
- Yeah, but he's wearing a hoodie too.

216
00:09:39,745 --> 00:09:41,147
You can't tell.

217
00:09:41,213 --> 00:09:45,084
- Unless we compare the gaits.

218
00:09:45,151 --> 00:09:47,286
We have a software that can analyze

219
00:09:47,353 --> 00:09:49,288
the biomechanics of how he moves.

220
00:09:49,355 --> 00:09:51,924
Your gait can be as unique as your fingerprint.

221
00:10:05,972 --> 00:10:07,840
91% match.

222
00:10:07,907 --> 00:10:10,643
The Michigan jogger and the Central Park West jogger--

223
00:10:10,710 --> 00:10:12,278
they're the same person.

224
00:10:12,345 --> 00:10:15,982
- Looks to me like Rob McCann's murder was a professional hit.

225
00:10:25,958 --> 00:10:27,326
- People, please turn your hymnals

226
00:10:27,393 --> 00:10:29,795
to section 1958 of the federal code

227
00:10:29,862 --> 00:10:32,231
with the snappy title "Murder for Hire."

228
00:10:32,298 --> 00:10:34,100
We now believe McCann's killer is a pro

229
00:10:34,166 --> 00:10:37,136
who also took out a state senator in Lansing last year.

230
00:10:37,203 --> 00:10:39,705
- Quantico's video analysis indicates that the suspect

231
00:10:39,772 --> 00:10:42,141
is a white male, 30 to 40's, 6" tall.

232
00:10:42,208 --> 00:10:43,876
- Let's call Lansing area hotels.

233
00:10:43,943 --> 00:10:45,244
Get the names of the guests that checked out

234
00:10:45,311 --> 00:10:47,013
right after the senator's murder.

235
00:10:47,079 --> 00:10:48,814
Our guy may be on that list.

236
00:10:49,749 --> 00:10:51,384
- I was doing my residency at St. Luke's

237
00:10:51,450 --> 00:10:55,721
when Rob was embedded with the Marines in Fallujah.

238
00:10:55,788 --> 00:10:59,158
That's when I was terrified I'd lose him.

239
00:10:59,225 --> 00:11:03,295
Not now. Not here.

240
00:11:03,362 --> 00:11:05,131
I don't know what I'm gonna do.

241
00:11:05,197 --> 00:11:09,235
- We're very sorry for your loss.

242
00:11:11,737 --> 00:11:17,810
- So someone hired this man to...

243
00:11:17,877 --> 00:11:19,311
Why? Over something Rob wrote?

244
00:11:19,378 --> 00:11:20,980
- We're not sure yet.

245
00:11:21,047 --> 00:11:22,748
Did he have any issues with drugs? Gambling?

246
00:11:22,815 --> 00:11:24,216
- No. Nothing like that.

247
00:11:24,283 --> 00:11:27,853
- Has he been worried lately or concerned?

248
00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:30,122
- If anything, he was excited

249
00:11:30,189 --> 00:11:32,024
about a new story he was working on.

250
00:11:32,091 --> 00:11:33,459
- What story?

251
00:11:33,526 --> 00:11:36,429
- He wasn't ready to talk about it yet.

252
00:11:36,495 --> 00:11:37,763
He said it was the sort of thing

253
00:11:37,830 --> 00:11:39,799
that could win a Pulitzer.

254
00:11:39,865 --> 00:11:42,802
- Most reporters keep notebooks.

255

Did your husband have one?

256

- Yes.
- Is it here?

257
00:11:46,906 --> 00:11:49,809
- He carried it with him.
- It wasn't found on his body.

258

- Are you sure?

259
00:11:51,377 --> 00:11:53,479
Rob never went anywhere without his notebook.

260

That's significant, isn't it?

Do you have any idea why he was in the park last night?

263
00:12:04,056 --> 00:12:06,325
- I don't know exactly.

264
00:12:06,392 --> 00:12:08,027
When we talked on the phone, he did say

265
00:12:08,094 --> 00:12:10,196
he was planning to meet with a source.

266
00:12:10,262 --> 00:12:12,298
- A source on this news story?

267
00:12:12,364 --> 00:12:15,134
- Yes, I think so.

268
00:12:17,970 --> 00:12:19,905
- I talked to Rob's editor and his colleagues.

269
00:12:19,972 --> 00:12:21,740
He didn't tell them about the story either.

270
00:12:21,807 --> 00:12:23,742
- Well, whatever it is, I think it's the key to this.

271
00:12:23,809 --> 00:12:25,411
What does his browser history show?

272
00:12:25,478 --> 00:12:27,913
- Mostly stuff for articles he had in the pipeline,

273
00:12:27,980 --> 00:12:31,016
except for some searches on pediatric oncology.

274
00:12:31,083 --> 00:12:33,519
- Does Rob have a kid in his circle who has cancer?

275
00:12:33,586 --> 00:12:34,987
- Not that we can find.

276
00:12:35,054 --> 00:12:36,856

277
00:12:36,922 --> 00:12:39,125
Any phone calls that point to who that might be?

278
00:12:39,191 --> 00:12:41,193
- Rob did get some calls from a burner phone,

279
00:12:41,260 --> 00:12:43,095
but we're still trying to trace who it belongs to.

280
00:12:43,162 --> 00:12:45,131
- And Rob McCann's autopsy report just dropped.

281
00:12:45,197 --> 00:12:47,533
Looks like he had a 0.07 blood alcohol level.

282
00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:49,468
- Okay, so he met his source for drinks.

283
00:12:49,535 --> 00:12:51,237
- That is my takeaway.

284
00:12:51,303 --> 00:12:53,372
- Could you put any of those drinks on a card?

285
00:12:53,439 --> 00:12:55,174
- No. It looks like he paid cash.

286
00:12:55,241 --> 00:12:59,078
He withdrew $100 from an ATM on 67th and Columbus.

287
00:12:59,145 --> 00:13:00,546

288

Who was he with? - He was alone.

00:13:24,570 --> 00:13:27,039
It seemed like he was waiting for someone, but nobody showed,

298
00:13:27,106 --> 00:13:28,541
so he paid up and split.
