0:04:00 > 0:04:03- Jay. - Hey, Robbo.

0:04:06 > 0:04:08What's the story?

0:04:08 > 0:04:12We got a truckie pull up to check his trailers.

0:04:12 > 0:04:15Heard a wild dog growlin' from here under the bridge.

0:04:15 > 0:04:17Smelt somethin' rotten.

0:04:17 > 0:04:19How'd he know it was a wild dog?

0:04:20 > 0:04:24Guess he just knows the difference, I s'pose, you know,

0:04:24 > 0:04:27between a wild dog and a... wild kind of normal dog.

0:04:28 > 0:04:31Who let Macca talk to the truckie?

0:04:32 > 0:04:35INAUDIBLE SPEECH

0:04:36 > 0:04:40Guess he just, uh, let himself, mate.

0:05:08 > 0:05:10Are these your footprints?

0:05:10 > 0:05:12Yeah, I guess they are.

0:05:14 > 0:05:17So the other ones there belong to the truck driver.

0:05:17 > 0:05:19Why isn't this crime scene locked off?

0:05:19 > 0:05:23I didn't think we'd worry about it out here, Jay.

0:05:23 > 0:05:25It's the middle of nowhere.

0:05:25 > 0:05:26So, you know her?

0:05:28 > 0:05:30Yeah.

0:05:30 > 0:05:33She's a local girl.

0:05:33 > 0:05:37- I'll send a car out, then, eh? - Nah.

0:05:37 > 0:05:39I better do it myself.

0:05:52 > 0:05:54How's it going, Jim?

0:05:55 > 0:05:58Nice to see you back, Detective.

0:06:05 > 0:06:10Laceration to the throat, consistent with a knife wound.

0:06:10 > 0:06:12Capable of causing death.

0:06:12 > 0:06:14Time of death, oh...

0:06:14 > 0:06:1748 to 72 hours ago.

0:06:18 > 0:06:20And it probably wasn't here.

0:06:23 > 0:06:26A few post-trauma wounds around the upper arm.

0:06:26 > 0:06:29Probably...canine in origin.

0:06:29 > 0:06:33Yeah. Truckie said he heard a dog growling in here.

0:06:33 > 0:06:35Big bastard, was he?

0:06:35 > 0:06:37The dog, I mean.

0:06:38 > 0:06:43I don't know. He didn't see it. But he said it was a wild one.

0:06:43 > 0:06:46How did he know it was a wild dog, Jay?

0:06:50 > 0:06:53I was, uh... I was reading about wild dogs.

0:06:53 > 0:06:57They were terrorising a town in Russia or someplace.

0:06:57 > 0:07:01The people were too scared to go out at night.

0:07:01 > 0:07:02Get this -

0:07:02 > 0:07:06the dogs had learnt to travel on the subway.

0:07:06 > 0:07:09They'd take the late-night trains into the city and scavenge for food,

0:07:09 > 0:07:12and then take the early morning train back out.

0:07:12 > 0:07:13Can you believe that?

0:07:13 > 0:07:15Dogs taking trains.

0:07:16 > 0:07:20It's a crazy world, getting crazier.

0:07:25 > 0:07:28What've you got there, Jim?

0:07:28 > 0:07:31Looks like a wild grass seed.

0:07:34 > 0:07:37Oh, look at that.

0:08:36 > 0:08:38I know, Jay.

0:08:38 > 0:08:41But sooner or later, you were going to get it.

1:02:08 > 1:02:11Look, I get so many people through here...

1:02:11 > 1:02:15I really can't remember. He was a pretty average-looking cowboy, I guess.

1:02:19 > 1:02:20Which police officer?

1:02:20 > 1:02:22He was killed out on the highway.

1:07:56 > 1:07:59'Not bad, mate. We just got the results from the lab.

1:07:59 > 1:08:02- 'I'm typing up a report now.' - OK, great.

1:08:02 > 1:08:04'Thought you might want to know, the light brown fibres

1:08:04 > 1:08:08'found on the girl's fingernails are of a synthetic material.

1:08:08 > 1:08:11'They've got the microstructure consistent with the material

1:08:11 > 1:08:14'found in the production of car seats.'

1:08:15 > 1:08:17'Well, that is the question.

1:08:17 > 1:08:20'It'll take a few weeks to get a match.

1:08:20 > 1:08:22The fibres were so deep under her nails...

1:08:22 > 1:08:24'that they drew blood, Jay.

1:08:24 > 1:08:27'This girl went through a lot of pain.

1:08:27 > 1:08:28'Thought you should know that.

1:08:28 > 1:08:30'Oh, one other thing, mate.

1:08:30 > 1:08:32'We also found something a little bit strange.

1:08:32 > 1:08:34'The dog left its saliva on the girl...

1:08:34 > 1:08:37'and the lab identified a special gene in its DNA.

1:08:37 > 1:08:41'They're having trouble matching it with other dog DNA.

1:08:42 > 1:08:45'Like it was some kind of, well, superdog.

1:08:45 > 1:08:48'Anyway, that's just a bit of trivia.

1:08:48 > 1:08:50'I'll send this report over ASAP.'

1:09:57 > 1:10:00Bobby was at home watching the footy.

1:10:00 > 1:10:04I remember it was his team playing when he got a phone call.

1:10:04 > 1:10:07Said he had to go out and meet someone.

1:10:07 > 1:10:09Did he say where?

1:10:09 > 1:10:11Nah.

1:10:11 > 1:10:14Just that he'd be gone an hour.

1:10:14 > 1:10:17Two hours later I was getting worried.

1:10:17 > 1:10:21So I called the station, but they said they didn't know anything.

1:10:23 > 1:10:25And then the phone rang ar 3:00 in the morning.

1:10:25 > 1:10:28I just had this bad feeling.

1:10:28 > 1:10:30Took me a few minutes to pick up the phone.

1:10:34 > 1:10:38Highway patrol...

1:10:38 > 1:10:41found his car on the side of the highway...

1:10:44 > 1:10:47..and his body lying in a pool of blood.

1:10:59 > 1:11:02Did your husband ever talk to you about his work?

1:11:02 > 1:11:03Never.

1:11:03 > 1:11:06Said he didn't want to bring it home to the family.

1:11:09 > 1:11:13I couldn't find Bobby's case file at the station. Any idea why?

1:11:14 > 1:11:17A special team came up from the city, but...

1:11:17 > 1:11:20nothing really came of it.

1:11:20 > 1:11:22I guess it all got turned over to 'em.

1:11:22 > 1:11:25Did they ever tell you who called Bobby that night?

1:11:25 > 1:11:27They wouldn't tell me anything.

1:11:27 > 1:11:32But I know it was another policeman.

1:11:32 > 1:11:34How do you know that?

1:11:36 > 1:11:38Well, I didn't hear any names but...

1:11:38 > 1:11:41Bobby always spoke a certain way...

1:11:41 > 1:11:43when he was talking to another cop.

1:11:44 > 1:11:46Which way was that?

1:11:46 > 1:11:48Like he trusted them.
