0:02:55 > 0:02:57Hello, old friend.

0:02:58 > 0:03:01You've...hunted this actual deer before?

0:03:01 > 0:03:04This actual deer. Aye.

0:03:10 > 0:03:13I knew I'd get him one day.

0:04:24 > 0:04:27How was your flight? Sorry?

0:04:27 > 0:04:30How was your flight? Oh. Fine, thanks.

0:04:30 > 0:04:33I really appreciate you coming all this way, Dr Alexander.

0:04:33 > 0:04:36You too, Mr Hodges. Hodgson. Jack.

0:04:38 > 0:04:41So what else did he say on the phone?

0:04:41 > 0:04:43Attended a seminar I did in Edinburgh

0:04:43 > 0:04:45and stayed behind for a chat.

0:04:45 > 0:04:48You did a seminar in Edinburgh? Thanks for the invite(!)

0:04:48 > 0:04:51About what? Forensic anthropology, I presume.

0:04:51 > 0:04:53But you don't remember? Jack!

0:04:53 > 0:04:57Thanks. You are sure he's an actual policeman, aren't you?

0:04:57 > 0:04:58He looks about 12.

0:05:04 > 0:05:08I made sure nothing was touched. I wanted you to see it fresh. Good.

0:05:18 > 0:05:21So...was she killed here or is this just a deposition site?

0:05:25 > 0:05:27No blanching.

0:05:28 > 0:05:31Lividity on the underside of her legs is fixed.

0:05:31 > 0:05:33OK.

0:05:33 > 0:05:36Suggests that she was left in this position at time of death

0:05:36 > 0:05:39or shortly after. Any idea of cause of death?

0:05:40 > 0:05:44No good ones. Well, there's no evidence of strangulation.

0:05:44 > 0:05:47Probably best if we process first and talk second.

0:05:50 > 0:05:52Sure thing. Just be over there.

0:06:04 > 0:06:08Matchbook. Clarissa might be able to clean up the lettering on that.

0:06:08 > 0:06:11I'll get it secure couriered back to the Lyell.

0:06:11 > 0:06:14Mud and grazes on both knees suggest she fell hard.

0:06:15 > 0:06:17Deep, thin abrasions.

0:06:18 > 0:06:21Looks like wire. Wire he then removed.

0:06:21 > 0:06:23Vicious and methodical.

0:06:26 > 0:06:28Get the pot.

0:06:34 > 0:06:36Gotcha.

0:06:38 > 0:06:39Thank you.

0:06:46 > 0:06:48Jack.

0:06:49 > 0:06:51Jesus!

0:06:54 > 0:06:56Looks like an exit wound.

0:06:57 > 0:06:59Let's check her back.

0:07:04 > 0:07:06No bullet hole.

0:07:09 > 0:07:12Get the feeling we won't be making that plane? Just a bit.

0:07:14 > 0:07:17She was shot? Shot and then redressed. Jesus!

0:07:19 > 0:07:21Any ID?

0:07:21 > 0:07:24Not yet. We need to get the body back for postmortem.

0:07:24 > 0:07:26Someone must be looking for her.

0:09:01 > 0:09:04Vultures, but they have their uses.

0:09:05 > 0:09:08Bet they're even worse down south?

0:09:08 > 0:09:11I don't know. Journalists are journalists.

0:09:11 > 0:09:13Bit like pathologists.

0:09:13 > 0:09:17That sounds like false modesty. Actually, it was more of a question.

0:09:20 > 0:09:23You want to know why I didn't recruit locally? Mm-hmm.

0:09:25 > 0:09:29Well, for a forensic pathologist, I have to venture down to Kirkhaven.

0:09:29 > 0:09:34Home of Dr Andrew Jenkins. BMSc, MBChB, DMJ, FRCPath.

0:09:36 > 0:09:39That's right. How do you know that?

0:09:39 > 0:09:42I have a computer and access to the internet.

0:09:44 > 0:09:46Last murder case I worked on...

0:09:46 > 0:09:49Let's just say Dr Jenkins and I had a difference of opinion.

0:09:49 > 0:09:51About?

0:09:52 > 0:09:54Well, I don't want to impugn a man

0:09:54 > 0:09:57with all those letters after his name.

0:09:57 > 0:09:58Especially not to another pathologist.

0:11:36 > 0:11:40REPORTER: Crenlogue Police have launched a murder investigation

0:11:40 > 0:11:43after a body was discovered in Macroom Forest by a hunting party.

0:11:43 > 0:11:46Forensic teams have now begun a search of the area

0:11:46 > 0:11:48spanning 15 square miles.

0:11:48 > 0:11:52The body is believed to be female but that remains unconfirmed.

0:11:52 > 0:11:55A postmortem examination will take place at the end of today...

0:11:55 > 0:11:57TV REPORT FADES OUT

0:12:00 > 0:12:03The victim is an unidentified female in her early 20s.

0:12:03 > 0:12:07She was lying face-up for a period of five to seven days

0:12:07 > 0:12:11between her death and the discovery of her body.

0:12:11 > 0:12:14The bullet appears to have entered the heart and lung cavity,

0:12:14 > 0:12:17penetrating the aorta and tearing open the heart and lung tissue.

0:12:17 > 0:12:20Looks like an expanding bullet. Mm.

0:12:24 > 0:12:26Small entry wound in her back

0:12:26 > 0:12:29and contrastingly large exit wound to the chest

0:12:29 > 0:12:33suggest that the bullet lodged inside her and then mushroomed.

0:12:33 > 0:12:38Cause of death, then? Yes. No question.

0:12:44 > 0:12:46Any chance of a bit more light?

0:12:50 > 0:12:52I'll get that then, shall I?

0:12:52 > 0:12:54Thanks.

0:13:03 > 0:13:05Bullet fragment.

0:13:11 > 0:13:14Victim has a broken nose which is partially healed.

0:13:14 > 0:13:16From the bruising it looks like the breakage

0:13:16 > 0:13:19was sustained roughly a week before her death.

0:13:19 > 0:13:22Various cuts and scratches to the victim's arms and legs.

0:13:24 > 0:13:26Embedded in the wounds are splinters...

0:13:27 > 0:13:29..and bark consistent with the trees

0:13:29 > 0:13:31in the forest where the victim was found.

0:13:31 > 0:13:34She was running through the trees?

0:13:34 > 0:13:36Injuries suggest high velocity contact, yes.

0:13:36 > 0:13:40But we didn't find corresponding scratches and tears to her clothing.

0:13:40 > 0:13:44Suggests that she was pursued, shot, then redressed by the killer.

0:13:47 > 0:13:50There is evidence of vulval trauma suggestive of rape,

0:13:50 > 0:13:52possibly multiple rapes.

0:13:54 > 0:13:56I'll swab for DNA and under her fingernails...

0:13:57 > 0:14:00..which have recently been cut short.

0:14:01 > 0:14:04White paint flakes here.

0:14:07 > 0:14:10There's white paint on the wire I found at the scene.

0:14:12 > 0:14:14It looks like the width of the wire

0:14:14 > 0:14:16matches the welts in the victim's wrists.

0:14:18 > 0:14:20So, we have white paint flakes in her hair

0:14:20 > 0:14:23and in the circular injuries to her wrist

0:14:23 > 0:14:25and on the wire that we think caused those injuries.

0:14:25 > 0:14:29She was strung up over something? Chips are edged with rust.

0:14:29 > 0:14:33Something metallic? I dunno, a pipe? Mm. A pipe works.

0:14:34 > 0:14:36And it explains the upward angle of the welts

0:14:36 > 0:14:38on the outer side of her wrists.

0:14:46 > 0:14:48Gravity.

0:14:48 > 0:14:50She hung suspended.

0:14:54 > 0:14:57MUSIC: "Help Me Lose My Mind" by Disclosure Ft. London Grammar

0:14:57 > 0:15:01# Help me lose my mind... #

0:15:06 > 0:15:09Thank you, Jerome. Oh, wait a minute.

0:15:09 > 0:15:12What about the money, mate? Stick it on the tab.

0:15:12 > 0:15:14Yeah, I would stick it on your tab

0:15:14 > 0:15:16but it's running away with itself. So?

0:15:16 > 0:15:19So it's over a grand and we've got a business to run.

0:15:19 > 0:15:22Over a grand? Jesus Christ, I'm sorry(!)

0:15:22 > 0:15:25I'm so... I had no idea. I'm so sorry(!)

0:15:25 > 0:15:27Let's see when it gets to two grand pal, let me know.

0:15:29 > 0:15:31Arsehole.

0:15:36 > 0:15:39That was a bit unnecessary, wasn't it? Oh, come on!

0:15:39 > 0:15:42Yes, it bloody was. He's just doing his job.

0:15:42 > 0:15:45Oh, so he is. Aye. Poor wee gentleman(!)

0:15:45 > 0:15:47Oh, you know, it's such a...

0:15:47 > 0:15:50Oh, I feel terrible now, I really do(!) Mike. That's enough.

0:15:52 > 0:15:55You stay for the lecture, pal. I've got better things to do.

0:16:01 > 0:16:04Here. I'll bring the rest tomorrow.

0:16:06 > 0:16:09I'm sorry about him. You've been saying that for 20 years.

0:16:09 > 0:16:13Thank God there's only another ten left then, eh?

0:16:16 > 0:16:18HE SHOUTS

0:16:27 > 0:16:31What am I looking at? I've no idea. What are you looking at?

0:16:31 > 0:16:35A matchbook found on an unidentified body.

0:16:35 > 0:16:38An unidentified body in Scotland, by any chance?

0:16:38 > 0:16:40What difference does it make?

0:16:40 > 0:16:43I wondered if your victim might be American.

0:16:43 > 0:16:45American? More specifically a New Yorker.

0:16:48 > 0:16:51SHE GASPS It's the Manhattan bloody skyline.

0:16:53 > 0:16:56So you've had no reports of missing girls at all? No. As in none?

0:16:56 > 0:16:58Not recently. Not from Crenlogue.

0:16:58 > 0:17:01And before "recently"? Not in the two years I've been up here.

0:17:01 > 0:17:04You sure about that? We've had the odd lass running off to Kirkhaven

0:17:04 > 0:17:06but no-one who didn't turn up again, all right?

0:17:06 > 0:17:09Whoever did this was confident. Organised.

0:17:09 > 0:17:11Nothing about it feels like a first kill.

0:17:11 > 0:17:13MOBILE PHONE RINGS

0:17:13 > 0:17:17Maybe if the victim's not from the area, the killer isn't either.

0:17:17 > 0:17:19Maybe. But they know their way around Macroom Forest.

0:17:19 > 0:17:21All 15 square miles of it.

0:17:23 > 0:17:26Do you have a New York-themed bar or restaurant around here?

0:17:26 > 0:17:29In Crenlogue? Are you joking? What about further afield?

0:17:30 > 0:17:33I think there's a place down in Kirkhaven called the Manhattan Bar.

0:17:33 > 0:17:36What kind of place is it? Pole dancing club.

0:17:36 > 0:17:39Well, we need to pay it a visit. Now. Says who?

0:17:39 > 0:17:42The matchbox in our victim's jacket says who.

0:17:42 > 0:17:44Look, by all means you follow it up

0:17:44 > 0:17:46but I've got a murder inquiry to coordinate.

0:17:47 > 0:17:51Fine. Jack, just do me a favour?

0:17:52 > 0:17:54Tread carefully. It's not my patch.

0:18:01 > 0:18:03BABY CRIES

0:18:04 > 0:18:06Sarah.

0:18:08 > 0:18:10Is everything OK?

0:18:12 > 0:18:15Mmm-hmm. Well, how long's he been crying?

0:18:15 > 0:18:18SHE SIGHS I don't know. I just...

0:18:19 > 0:18:21I had to sit down. Bad day?

0:18:24 > 0:18:26Sweetheart? Nah, it's just a headache.

0:18:30 > 0:18:32I'll tend to him. Sure?

0:18:38 > 0:18:41The man who shot the deer and found the body, what's his name?

0:18:41 > 0:18:42Niall Wallace. Why?

0:18:42 > 0:18:44Bullet casing from our victim.

0:18:45 > 0:18:48Note the two fine tramline scratches.

0:18:52 > 0:18:55Remnant of the bullet casing we think killed the stag.

0:18:55 > 0:18:57Same scratches.

0:18:57 > 0:19:00Both bullets were hand modified using the same implement.

0:19:00 > 0:19:02If we found the common tool...

0:19:02 > 0:19:05What kind of tool are we talking about? A collet bullet puller.

0:19:05 > 0:19:07What? A bullet press.

0:19:09 > 0:19:11It uses a caliber-specific clamp to grip the bullet

0:19:11 > 0:19:14while the loading press is used to pull the case downwards.

0:19:14 > 0:19:16Niall Wallace owns several.

0:19:16 > 0:19:19How do you know? It's where I buy my ammo.

0:19:19 > 0:19:21He's the best.

0:19:22 > 0:19:24Thanks.

0:19:25 > 0:19:29Niall Wallace has over 20 firearms registered in his name.

0:19:29 > 0:19:31Good to know.

0:19:31 > 0:19:34There's something else you should know about Niall.

0:19:34 > 0:19:36When he was a kid he was prime suspect

0:19:36 > 0:19:38in the shooting of his dad, Pete Wallace.

0:19:38 > 0:19:42Are we talking a fatal shooting? Aye. We are.

0:19:42 > 0:19:46Why didn't you mention this before? Like when he found the body?

0:19:46 > 0:19:50Didn't seem right, sir. Kid was only a suspect. Nothing proven.

0:19:50 > 0:19:52But you're mentioning it now?

0:19:52 > 0:19:55Yeah. We all knew he did it and we all pitied him, I suppose.

0:19:55 > 0:19:58Why? Cos his dad was a monster.

0:19:58 > 0:20:01Cos every copper in Crenlogue had been up that farm at one time

0:20:01 > 0:20:04or another helping Mrs Wallace pick her teeth off the floor.

0:20:33 > 0:20:35Well, his car's here.

0:20:36 > 0:20:38That's his workshop, there.

0:20:39 > 0:20:41I'll check the house, sir. On you go.

0:23:45 > 0:23:47Right.

0:23:48 > 0:23:49How can I help?

0:23:51 > 0:23:54Well, you can start by putting that gun down.

0:23:55 > 0:23:57This old thing?

0:24:01 > 0:24:03I was just cleaning it.

0:24:04 > 0:24:06Didn't realise it was still in my hand.

0:24:10 > 0:24:13Come on, Niall. We just want to ask you some questions.

0:24:16 > 0:24:19That's what you said when my dad died.

0:24:20 > 0:24:23Didn't see my bed for a week.

0:24:23 > 0:24:25(Paint flakes.)

0:24:29 > 0:24:31(Look familiar?) (Yeah.)

0:26:52 > 0:26:54She worked here? In a manner of speaking.

0:26:54 > 0:26:57What does that mean? Means when she could be arsed to turn up.

0:26:57 > 0:26:59Then how come you don't know her last name?

0:26:59 > 0:27:03Because she never bloody told me, all right? What is this?

0:27:03 > 0:27:06Caitlin was found yesterday afternoon in Macroom Forest.

0:27:06 > 0:27:09We estimate she'd been dead about a week.

0:27:18 > 0:27:20This is shrapnel from the deer we know you shot

0:27:20 > 0:27:24and this is a fragment from the bullet that killed the young woman.

0:27:25 > 0:27:28So what? Both bullets were modified by the bullet press

0:27:28 > 0:27:30we found in your workshop.

0:27:34 > 0:27:36You know, I've been thinking about making a change.

0:27:36 > 0:27:39Been thinking about it for a while. A change? Aye.

0:27:39 > 0:27:43You mean like upgrading your prey from deer to women?

0:27:43 > 0:27:46Wouldn't call that an upgrade. No? No.

0:27:46 > 0:27:48See, hunting's a test. It's a challenge.

0:27:48 > 0:27:51I mean, where's the challenge

0:27:51 > 0:27:53in hunting some tart through the trees? Eh?

0:27:55 > 0:27:57So what kind of change were you talking about then, Niall?

0:27:57 > 0:28:01Decent bullet press shouldn't leave any marks.

0:28:01 > 0:28:04I was thinking of changing to a spring-loader.

0:28:04 > 0:28:07Well, you know what they say about bad workmen blaming their tools?

0:28:07 > 0:28:10I'm no workman. I'm more of an engineer.

0:28:10 > 0:28:14Well, some say I'm an artist. Really? Mm.

0:28:14 > 0:28:17See, that's why my hand-augmented ammo

0:28:17 > 0:28:19sells to such a wide variety of people.

0:28:19 > 0:28:22Hunters, tourists, farmers,

0:28:22 > 0:28:24weekenders from the city

0:28:24 > 0:28:27who fancy killing something that's not computer generated.

0:28:27 > 0:28:30The rifle you pointed at PC Bathurst was illegally modified.

0:28:30 > 0:28:34I didn't point it at him. That's not what he says. Then he's lying.

0:28:34 > 0:28:37And as for small changes I may or may not have made

0:28:37 > 0:28:39to the barrelling, big deal.

0:28:39 > 0:28:41But it is a big deal, Niall. It's against the law.

0:28:41 > 0:28:44Well then, it's against the law for my customers -

0:28:44 > 0:28:48the sheriffs, chief constables, procurators fiscal.

0:28:49 > 0:28:54Aye. That's right. You see I modify their guns, too.

0:28:54 > 0:28:56We're all hunters up here, miss.

0:28:56 > 0:29:00And you'd know that if you were local. Genuine local, I mean.

0:29:00 > 0:29:03Trust me, I wear it as a badge of honour that I'm not.

0:29:05 > 0:29:10You see, that kind of attitude, well, it's liable to get you killed.

0:29:13 > 0:29:15Are you threatening me?

0:29:16 > 0:29:19No. Just the opposite.

0:29:19 > 0:29:21I'm warning you.

0:29:21 > 0:29:23Did you warn your dad?

0:29:28 > 0:29:30Watch your step.

0:29:31 > 0:29:33Give us a minute, girls. FAINT MUSIC

0:29:40 > 0:29:42Hello.

0:29:48 > 0:29:51I hear you knew Caitlin well? Well enough.

0:29:51 > 0:29:56What about her last name? I don't know. She was just Caitlin.

0:29:56 > 0:29:59When did she last come in to work?

0:29:59 > 0:30:01A week ago Thursday. You asked me that already.

0:30:01 > 0:30:04And now I'm asking her. You got a problem with that?

0:30:04 > 0:30:07She was fine. Wasn't she, Amy?

0:30:07 > 0:30:10Why do you think she was just plain old Caitlin? It was her choice!

0:30:10 > 0:30:13I think you were her employer and you had a duty of care.

0:30:13 > 0:30:15She didn't want us to know her last name,

0:30:15 > 0:30:18who she was and where she came from.

0:30:18 > 0:30:21Half the girls don't and I don't ask.

0:30:21 > 0:30:24Sounds like you've told me all you can.

0:30:24 > 0:30:26Thank you. Bye-bye.

0:30:34 > 0:30:36All the pathology evidence

0:30:36 > 0:30:39indicates that we're looking for a seasoned hunter.

0:30:41 > 0:30:43I understand you're the best.

0:30:46 > 0:30:49Your homemade bullet caused some of the worst internal injuries

0:30:49 > 0:30:51I have ever seen.

0:30:53 > 0:30:55Like you said, I'm the best.

0:30:59 > 0:31:01Few days before I found the body,

0:31:01 > 0:31:04I was in the same part of the forest. I heard someone.

0:31:04 > 0:31:07You heard someone? Aye.

0:31:07 > 0:31:11Then I heard a shot. Just the one.

0:31:11 > 0:31:13What did you see? Nothing.

0:31:17 > 0:31:19Sound travels in a forest, Detective.

0:31:19 > 0:31:22You can be 500 yards from someone

0:31:22 > 0:31:24and it sounds like they're right next to you.

0:31:24 > 0:31:28You said this was a few days before the body was found.

0:31:28 > 0:31:29Can you be more specific?

0:31:29 > 0:31:32I want to say it was Sunday,

0:31:32 > 0:31:35but I was priming the out house all weekend.

0:31:35 > 0:31:37Must've been last Friday.

0:31:39 > 0:31:41So six days before the body was found?

0:31:46 > 0:31:48Were you alone? Aye.

0:31:49 > 0:31:51And you can't give us any kind of description? No.

0:31:51 > 0:31:53Nothing? Nope.

0:31:55 > 0:31:59Oh. I did see a van parked down the lane, aye.

0:31:59 > 0:32:02Maroon or dark red.

0:32:02 > 0:32:04Maroon or dark red?

0:32:04 > 0:32:08Your bullshit is starting to get on my nerves a wee bit, hillbilly.

0:32:08 > 0:32:10So let's see if I can get this straight.

0:32:10 > 0:32:13You heard someone but you didn't see anyone.

0:32:13 > 0:32:15You heard a bullet but you're not positive about what day.

0:32:15 > 0:32:18And you saw a van that was either maroon or dark red.

0:32:18 > 0:32:22See, you're not selling me a watertight alibi here, Niall.

0:32:22 > 0:32:24And it begs the question,

0:32:24 > 0:32:27why didn't you mention this when you found the body?

0:32:30 > 0:32:32I'll tell you something, wee man.

0:32:34 > 0:32:36If I'd been on my own when I found her

0:32:36 > 0:32:39I would have left her there. Why?

0:32:39 > 0:32:41Call it prior experience.

0:32:43 > 0:32:47When my dad died, all this lot tried to do was pin it on me.

0:32:47 > 0:32:52I want as little to do with you corrupt little bastards as possible.

0:32:52 > 0:32:55Unless we're buying your hunting supplies?

0:32:56 > 0:32:59Shut up, Niall. As in don't speak.

0:32:59 > 0:33:01Don't say another solitary word.

0:33:03 > 0:33:07Are you personally indemnified against prosecution, detective?

0:33:07 > 0:33:10The reason I ask is I don't want you to get a big shock

0:33:10 > 0:33:14when I bring civil cases against the police force that you represent

0:33:14 > 0:33:17and you, individually, shorn of your detective constable status.

0:33:17 > 0:33:19Detective sergeant.

0:33:19 > 0:33:21If you're going to sue me, you might as well get my rank right.

0:33:21 > 0:33:24Look, I gave him his phone call... Just cut the crap.

0:33:24 > 0:33:26You don't say squat to my client until I'm sat by his side.

0:33:26 > 0:33:30And if any of this is news to you then I am seriously depressed.

0:33:34 > 0:33:36What was she like, Caitlin?

0:33:38 > 0:33:40She was a laugh.

0:33:40 > 0:33:43When I first started, she gave me the confidence

0:33:43 > 0:33:47to get up and do it, you know? Uh-huh.

0:33:47 > 0:33:49Taught me how to handle the punters, too.

0:33:49 > 0:33:51She looked out for you? Yeah.

0:33:53 > 0:33:55She used to say, "Do as I say not as I do."

0:33:56 > 0:33:59Did she have troubles of her own? Doesn't everyone?

0:33:59 > 0:34:01I'm not judging her, Amy.

0:34:01 > 0:34:04I just want to find out what happened to her.

0:34:07 > 0:34:12That night when we were leaving the club she was pretty drunk or high...

0:34:12 > 0:34:14I don't know... Go on?

0:34:14 > 0:34:17I'd noticed she'd got a bit close to one of the punters

0:34:17 > 0:34:19when she was dancing. A regular?

0:34:19 > 0:34:21No, I'd never seen him before.

0:34:21 > 0:34:23But when we got outside, I turned round and she was gone.

0:34:23 > 0:34:26Did you think she might've gone off with the punter?

0:34:28 > 0:34:32I contacted the police two days later. Weren't interested.

0:34:32 > 0:34:35They have you fill out a missing persons report though, yeah?

0:34:35 > 0:34:37No. They told me to stop wasting their time.

0:34:42 > 0:34:45Is this the man you think Caitlin went off with? No.

0:34:45 > 0:34:50I mean, I didn't get a good look at him but definitely not him.

0:34:51 > 0:34:53Thank you, Amy.

0:34:56 > 0:34:58Are you OK?

0:35:00 > 0:35:02Can I take you anywhere?

0:35:07 > 0:35:09If I was the bitch you're making me out to be,

0:35:09 > 0:35:11I would've cleared her locker last week.

0:35:26 > 0:35:29She had a kid.

0:35:30 > 0:35:32HE SIGHS

0:35:48 > 0:35:50Lamborghini 5.

0:35:51 > 0:35:56Does that mean anything to you? Sounds like the Grand Prix Hotel.

0:35:56 > 0:36:00The rooms are named after different cars. Classy joint(!)

0:36:00 > 0:36:03Most of their guests are off-shore oil workers. Rough lot?

0:36:03 > 0:36:06Some of them. We get our share here.

0:36:06 > 0:36:09DS ROSS: Are you sure? No. Not without chemical tests.

0:36:09 > 0:36:12But the texture's visibly different, have a look.

0:36:13 > 0:36:15Paint flake found on Caitlin...

0:36:16 > 0:36:18..and from the pipe in Wallace's barn.

0:36:21 > 0:36:24He says he uses the pipe to hang animal hides.

0:36:24 > 0:36:27Maybe he does. Either way, I don't have enough to hold him.

0:36:27 > 0:36:29Not with that brief.

0:36:45 > 0:36:47MOBILE PHONE RINGS

0:36:49 > 0:36:53Jack? 'Listen. I managed to identify the victim.

0:36:53 > 0:36:56'Tell Ross we need a warrant for the Grand Prix Hotel.'

0:37:01 > 0:37:04How is he, OK? Yeah, that should be him for tonight.

0:37:16 > 0:37:19You know, I've been thinking about you all day.

0:37:22 > 0:37:24I'm tired. Another headache?

0:37:25 > 0:37:29No. You gone off me, then?

0:37:30 > 0:37:33Just leave it, Steve, you know it's not that.

0:37:33 > 0:37:36Well, why don't you tell me what it is, then?

0:38:06 > 0:38:08DISTANT SIREN SOUNDS

0:38:25 > 0:38:27SIREN SOUNDS

0:38:32 > 0:38:34BRAKES SCREECH

0:38:40 > 0:38:44Well, well. Kerb crawling while on duty, eh?

0:38:44 > 0:38:47Picking up slappers on police time?

0:38:47 > 0:38:49Look what the cat dragged in, DI Laing.

0:38:49 > 0:38:52He doesn't write. He doesn't call. It's disappointing.

0:38:52 > 0:38:55It's heartbreaking. I taught this bastard everything he knows.

0:38:55 > 0:38:58And when he does darken our doorway he doesn't even knock.

0:38:58 > 0:39:01I'm sorry. You what?

0:39:01 > 0:39:03I'm sorry. You're sorry?

0:39:04 > 0:39:07Apology not accepted.

0:39:09 > 0:39:11You've hurt his feelings, son.

0:39:12 > 0:39:16This is Dr Nikki Alexander. She's helping me with a case.

0:39:16 > 0:39:19In what capacity? I'm a forensic pathologist.

0:39:19 > 0:39:23A forensic pathologist? From where? London.

0:39:25 > 0:39:28That's a long way.

0:39:28 > 0:39:31A little bird tells me that you're heading up to the Grand Prix

0:39:31 > 0:39:33to shake down an oil worker?

0:39:34 > 0:39:38Is that a problem? Not now, it's not.

0:39:41 > 0:39:44This is Jack Hodgson. He's helping us on the forensics side of things.

0:39:44 > 0:39:47DI Laing, DS MacNeil. Hello.

0:39:47 > 0:39:49You from London, too? Depends how far back you want to go.

0:39:49 > 0:39:51Ha! What is it with you?

0:39:51 > 0:39:53Bringing in outside help just to wrap up a dead tart!

0:39:53 > 0:39:55We've got experts up here too, you know.

0:39:55 > 0:39:58She had a name, it's Caitlin.

0:39:58 > 0:40:01She was raped and tortured and gunned down as she fled for her life.

0:40:01 > 0:40:03Yes. I heard that. Yes, you did.

0:40:03 > 0:40:07Her workmate reported her missing and was told to stop wasting police time.

0:40:07 > 0:40:10That's all we need. A squint with a heart. All right, Mike?

0:40:10 > 0:40:13How'd you know my name? Cheeky!

0:40:13 > 0:40:15Have I nicked her? I think you have, yeah.

0:40:17 > 0:40:19Oh, can I help you?

0:40:19 > 0:40:21Yep. Lamborgini 5, mate. Is it occupied?

0:40:23 > 0:40:24Yeah. Who by? How long?

0:40:26 > 0:40:29Linus Skinner. Couple of weeks. Right.

0:40:41 > 0:40:43KNOCKING ON DOOR

0:40:45 > 0:40:47KNOCKING ON DOOR

0:40:55 > 0:40:57Who is it?

0:40:57 > 0:40:59Linus Skinner, open up.

0:41:03 > 0:41:05Go away. DOOR BANGS

0:41:08 > 0:41:10Guess we're not in Kansas anymore.

0:41:10 > 0:41:13What've you been up to, Skinner? Piss off. I've got rights.

0:41:13 > 0:41:15Yeah, you do.

0:41:15 > 0:41:18Until you start raping and murdering girls of Kirkhaven.

0:41:18 > 0:41:20Then those rights diminish somewhat.

0:41:21 > 0:41:24When did you last see this girl? What girl? This girl.

0:41:24 > 0:41:27Well, I can't see properly, can I? Cos of fatso here.

0:41:27 > 0:41:28Argh! You were saying?

0:41:29 > 0:41:32This girl is dead. Murdered.

0:41:32 > 0:41:34We found a beer mat in her shorts with your room number written on it.

0:41:34 > 0:41:38Our guess is it'll have your DNA and fingerprints all over it.

0:41:39 > 0:41:41So I go down the Manhattan Club for a few drinks.

0:41:41 > 0:41:44That's where it ends. I'm a family man.

0:41:47 > 0:41:49See?

0:41:49 > 0:41:51Why would I want to play away with a wife like that at home?

0:41:57 > 0:42:00I think I preferred you blonde, Mrs Skinner. Wrong room, love.

0:42:02 > 0:42:05Right key, though. Nice boots.

0:42:05 > 0:42:07Where'd you get them?

0:42:07 > 0:42:12Present from a friend. This friend?

0:42:14 > 0:42:18Because, as her friend, you might be interested to know she's dead.

0:42:20 > 0:42:22He gave me them to me.

0:42:49 > 0:42:52There's blood staining inside the boots.

0:42:52 > 0:42:54If it belongs to Caitlin,

0:42:54 > 0:42:57I'm pretty confident we don't have the wrong room.

0:42:57 > 0:43:00The fact the blood's not smudged tells its own story.

0:43:00 > 0:43:04It had time to dry out after Caitlin sustained the injury

0:43:04 > 0:43:06and before you gave them to your friend.

0:43:07 > 0:43:10I take it all back, Ross. I quite like these two.

0:43:14 > 0:43:18All right. Caitlin came back here with me after the club.

0:43:18 > 0:43:21Last Thursday, right? Yeah.

0:43:24 > 0:43:26But by the time we got back here she was a mess.

0:43:28 > 0:43:31She was hyper one minute, suicidal the next.

0:43:32 > 0:43:35Kept going on about her bloody kid.

0:43:39 > 0:43:42I didn't mean to hit her that hard. You broke her nose.

0:43:44 > 0:43:47Serves her right. Little junkie prick tease.

0:43:49 > 0:43:53Oi! Oi! Easy, easy. Come on, back off! Come on!

0:43:53 > 0:43:55Get off me!

0:43:57 > 0:43:59Easy, Tyson. That's our job.

0:44:01 > 0:44:03Right, you hit her. Then what?

0:44:06 > 0:44:09The blood just seemed to freak her out.

0:44:09 > 0:44:12She just ran out of here like the building was on fire.

0:44:15 > 0:44:17I have two observations.

0:44:17 > 0:44:20You're the last person to see her alive

0:44:20 > 0:44:22and your story's full of shit.

0:44:26 > 0:44:28I'm taking him in. It's my case.

0:44:28 > 0:44:31Not if that room's our primary crime scene, it isn't.

0:44:31 > 0:44:34It isn't. Caitlin was shot out in Macroom Forest.

0:44:34 > 0:44:37If Skinner's guilty, then this was just the abduction site.

0:44:37 > 0:44:40No, no. Listen, blondie, unless you want us to stick your mate Jack

0:44:40 > 0:44:45in for assault, keep your nose out of it. OK? It's fine, Nikki, honestly.

0:44:47 > 0:44:49Nikki. Hey.

0:44:51 > 0:44:53What the hell happened in there, Jack? I'll tell you later.

0:44:53 > 0:44:55No. Tell me now. No, I promise you...

0:44:55 > 0:44:58If something is going on, then... Listen to me! Two scenarios.

0:44:58 > 0:45:00Depending on whether Skinner's lying,

0:45:00 > 0:45:03Caitlin was either barefoot or wearing cowboy boots

0:45:03 > 0:45:05last time she was seen alive.

0:45:05 > 0:45:08So who does the gold shoe you found belong to? Exactly.

0:45:15 > 0:45:19Getting some prints here. Going to e-mail them to Clarissa.

0:45:20 > 0:45:24It's three o'clock in the morning. Has she ever let us down?

0:45:24 > 0:45:27You didn't! You called her?

0:45:28 > 0:45:32She was totally cool about it. You owe me big time for this.

0:45:32 > 0:45:35I'm not talking dinner, bottle of wine, chocolates.

0:45:35 > 0:45:37I'm talking blood.

0:45:37 > 0:45:40'I really appreciate it, thanks.' I'll call you back.

0:45:42 > 0:45:46Prints on your shoe belong to a Barbara Cheung.

0:45:46 > 0:45:50Convictions for drug possession, intent to supply.

0:45:50 > 0:45:53'Got an address?' As of her last conviction

0:45:53 > 0:45:57she listed her place of work as a massage parlour in Kirkhaven.

0:46:16 > 0:46:18What is it?

0:46:21 > 0:46:23Tell me.

0:46:25 > 0:46:28Why have you never asked me about these?

0:46:30 > 0:46:33I thought you'd tell me when you were ready.

0:46:34 > 0:46:35I'm ready.

0:46:43 > 0:46:45Five years ago...

0:46:49 > 0:46:51..a man kidnapped me.

0:46:53 > 0:46:55He raped me.

0:46:56 > 0:46:58He raped me and he tried to kill me.

0:47:02 > 0:47:04Why did you not tell me this before?

0:47:04 > 0:47:09Did the police get him? No. I didn't tell the police. Why not?

0:47:10 > 0:47:13Sarah? Because I was ashamed.

0:47:15 > 0:47:18I was broke...

0:47:19 > 0:47:22..and to make ends meet I was doing some stripping.

0:47:25 > 0:47:29I had debts and my parents couldn't help me. I was desperate.

0:47:31 > 0:47:33And is that as far as it went?

0:47:34 > 0:47:36Stripping?

0:47:41 > 0:47:43You mean did I sell my body?

0:47:46 > 0:47:47Yeah.

0:47:53 > 0:47:54Once.

0:47:56 > 0:47:58When I was absolutely desperate.

0:48:00 > 0:48:02I hated it.

0:48:03 > 0:48:07It was...it was a disaster, and never again. OK, happy?

0:48:12 > 0:48:14Carry on.

0:48:19 > 0:48:21I'm not a complicated man, Skinner.

0:48:22 > 0:48:26But this seems pretty simple to me - you've got a temper,

0:48:26 > 0:48:28you beat up tarts.

0:48:30 > 0:48:33You were the last person to see the victim alive before she runs

0:48:33 > 0:48:37into the night, bleeding from an injury that you inflicted.

0:48:39 > 0:48:41Yeah. I know it doesn't look good.

0:48:44 > 0:48:47That's the understatement of the year, son.

0:48:47 > 0:48:49You served in the Army.

0:48:51 > 0:48:54Once upon a time, yeah.

0:48:54 > 0:48:56You know the difference between a light support,

0:48:56 > 0:48:58a carbine and a semi-automatic.

0:49:00 > 0:49:04You know that the L96 can achieve a first-round hit at 600 metres...

0:49:06 > 0:49:08..and harassing fire out to 1,100 metres.

0:49:11 > 0:49:13Sounds like you do.

0:49:14 > 0:49:19No. I did my bit in Kuwait. Gulf War One.

0:49:21 > 0:49:24The point is that you can handle a high-powered rifle,

0:49:24 > 0:49:28stalk a moving target, steady your aim.

0:49:28 > 0:49:31I haven't handled a rifle in 15 years.

0:49:31 > 0:49:33It's a bit like riding a bike though, isn't it?

0:49:33 > 0:49:35You never forget.

0:49:43 > 0:49:46KNOCKING ON DOOR

0:49:47 > 0:49:50How'd it go with Skinner? Stuck to his story. To the letter.

0:49:50 > 0:49:53They had to let him get some sleep eventually.

0:49:53 > 0:49:56You've got some history with those two? Laing and MacNeil?

0:49:56 > 0:49:59You could say that. I used to work down here.

0:49:59 > 0:50:01That much I got.

0:50:04 > 0:50:06Jack.

0:50:07 > 0:50:12I haven't seen Barbara Cheung in over three month. Sorry.

0:50:12 > 0:50:14What was she like?

0:50:15 > 0:50:18Tough cookie. You could trust her.

0:50:18 > 0:50:21I even let her look after this place sometimes.

0:50:22 > 0:50:24You have any idea where she went after she left?

0:50:24 > 0:50:27London, probably. That's where she was from.

0:50:27 > 0:50:31But you're not sure? Did she leave suddenly? Yeah. Very.

0:50:31 > 0:50:33Didn't even pick up her last pay packet, as I recall.

0:50:37 > 0:50:39He came from nowhere.

0:50:41 > 0:50:43He grabbed me...

0:50:44 > 0:50:46..pushed me into his van.

0:50:46 > 0:50:48He tied my hands with wire...

0:50:50 > 0:50:52..and he blindfolded me...

0:50:53 > 0:50:55..and then he raped me.

0:50:55 > 0:50:57HE SIGHS

0:50:59 > 0:51:01In the morning he...

0:51:02 > 0:51:05..he drove me out to Macroom Forest...

0:51:06 > 0:51:08..and he told me to run.

0:51:10 > 0:51:15And I did. I ran for my life.

0:51:17 > 0:51:19And he started firing at me.

0:51:19 > 0:51:21I could smell the gunpowder

0:51:21 > 0:51:24but I couldn't even see where I was going.

0:51:26 > 0:51:28But I managed to find a hiding place.

0:51:32 > 0:51:37And I watched him go by, and I ran the other away.

0:51:39 > 0:51:44I walked all day with my hands still tied.

0:51:45 > 0:51:48Hours and hours.

0:51:51 > 0:51:53I really thought I was going to die in that forest.

0:51:59 > 0:52:01Steve?

0:52:05 > 0:52:07I need some time to think about this.

0:52:09 > 0:52:11Steve.

0:52:13 > 0:52:15Look at me.

0:52:17 > 0:52:19Please.

0:52:29 > 0:52:32Does nothing I've said here make sense to you?

0:52:32 > 0:52:34Oh, for all you know, Barbara Cheung's back in London,

0:52:34 > 0:52:36massaging for England.

0:52:36 > 0:52:39Come on, she left without her pay packet.

0:52:39 > 0:52:43I found her shoe 20 yards from the body of another young woman.

0:52:43 > 0:52:47He's right. You don't have the budget to launch a search that big?

0:52:47 > 0:52:49You know I don't, sir. That's why I'm here.

0:52:49 > 0:52:51MOBILE PHONE RINGS

0:52:51 > 0:52:55Hello. Now we're sure there's other bodies buried in that forest.

0:52:55 > 0:52:58That's what we're sure about, is it? How come he didn't bury this one?

0:52:58 > 0:53:00How come he didn't bury Caitlin?

0:53:00 > 0:53:03Look, it's possible he was disturbed before he got the chance.

0:53:03 > 0:53:05Results are back on the fingernail scrapings

0:53:05 > 0:53:07and vaginal swabs from Caitlin.

0:53:07 > 0:53:10Both show the presence of bleach, which destroys DNA.

0:53:13 > 0:53:15We're dealing with a highly organised,

0:53:15 > 0:53:17sexually motivated killer.

0:53:19 > 0:53:21We need to search that forest.

0:53:28 > 0:53:30DOGS BARK

0:53:40 > 0:53:42Set the dogs free. All of them.

0:53:45 > 0:53:48DOG BARKS

0:54:39 > 0:54:41What have we got?

0:54:43 > 0:54:45Five so far.

0:54:45 > 0:54:47All female.

0:54:48 > 0:54:51I don't care how good he thinks he is.

0:54:51 > 0:54:54Somewhere here, he's made a mistake.

0:54:56 > 0:54:59Left us a clue. Something.

0:55:22 > 0:55:24Hello.

0:55:24 > 0:55:27Amy. It's Jack Hodgson.

0:55:27 > 0:55:30Who? The forensics guy. We met yesterday.

0:55:30 > 0:55:34Amy, you need to get home and stay home, and you need to do it now.

0:55:36 > 0:55:39Gloria. Has Steve called? No.

0:55:39 > 0:55:41Some bloke did come by this afternoon.

0:55:45 > 0:55:48Who? I dunno. Just spoke to him on the intercom.

0:55:48 > 0:55:50He didn't come up.

0:55:50 > 0:55:53Well...what was his name? He didn't give one.

0:55:53 > 0:55:56He just asked for you and I said you were out.

0:55:56 > 0:55:59Is everything OK?

0:56:05 > 0:56:07OUTBOUND RINGTONE

0:56:14 > 0:56:16What are your first impressions of how long

0:56:16 > 0:56:18the bodies have been in the ground?

0:56:18 > 0:56:20Decomposition rates vary wildly

0:56:20 > 0:56:23so we'll really need to assess once we get back to the mortuary.

0:56:23 > 0:56:26That's why I said "first impressions", love.

0:56:27 > 0:56:31'This is the Kirkhaven major incident room. Please hold.'

0:56:31 > 0:56:33PHONE BEEPS

0:56:37 > 0:56:39I think that the oldest body

0:56:39 > 0:56:42has been in the ground at least three years.

0:56:44 > 0:56:46What?

0:56:53 > 0:56:55Skinner's in the clear, that's what.

0:56:55 > 0:56:58We've got nothing. We have to let him go.

0:56:59 > 0:57:01Skinner's only been in the UK for a year.

0:57:01 > 0:57:03Before that he was in Dubai. For how long?

0:57:03 > 0:57:06The guts of a decade, his employers confirm it.

0:57:44 > 0:57:46Woman went missing last night.

0:57:46 > 0:57:48Her husband says she was abducted five years ago

0:57:48 > 0:57:51and taken to Macroom Forest. The same woman?

0:57:51 > 0:57:53They're going to pin this on me, as sure as day follows night.

0:57:53 > 0:57:56The good news is the hairs we found in Niall Wallace's vehicle

0:57:56 > 0:57:58are a DNA match for Sarah O'Keefe's.

0:57:58 > 0:58:01There is no evidence that he is anything more

0:58:01 > 0:58:04than a figment of your guilty conscience.

0:58:04 > 0:58:06I saw him, you prick!

0:58:06 > 0:58:09It's all hands on deck to find Sarah O'Keefe and you better talk to Jack.

0:58:09 > 0:58:11Something about this case disagrees with him,

0:58:11 > 0:58:13then he needs to deal with it or go home.

0:58:13 > 0:58:17At least two girls who worked for you wound up dead in Macroom Forest.

0:58:17 > 0:58:19I can handle the search and you stay here where you need to be.

0:58:19 > 0:58:21I'll decide where I need to be.

0:58:21 > 0:58:24I don't know this woman. Bullshit! Where is she?

0:58:24 > 0:58:26I don't know her! All right?

0:58:26 > 0:58:28Look, there's something I need to tell you.
