Ballard Season 1 Episode 9
Transcript
00:00Previously on Ballard, Washa Sky pulled 14 numbers off of Driscoll's phone, all burners.
00:05We traced one of them directly to Olivas last night. Number ends in 0666.
00:09Manny Santos, my boyfriend. He was getting texts from Olivas.
00:12Manny Santos?
00:17Burnt Manny. You're just the only one who knows it right now. Don't you want to keep it that way?
00:21My name is Officer Emmanuel Santos. I'm cooperating of my own volition.
00:25I was part of a group of cops across the LAPD that colluded with the Zacatecas Duivas Cartel.
00:31You don't call me Manny. I call you. What do you want?
00:35I just wanted to see your face.
00:39Put your hands on your head!
00:40This is my son.
00:42We are going to keep looking for him.
00:45You said that there was a video of Luis with Gael.
00:49I narrowed it down to seven kids who could be a match for Gael Ibarra.
00:52These are the addresses where each one first entered the system,
00:56but this one was surrendered at a firehouse six blocks from the sunbeam.
01:00The connection between these victims is behavior.
01:02What if our killer was punishing these women for stepping out of their place?
01:07This lipstick was found under Sarah's bed like she dropped it there.
01:11That's not Sarah's. That's Othella. It's a brand for black women.
01:15There was no analysis done on the lipstick inside.
01:19If it wasn't Sarah's, then whose was it?
01:29Results on the lipstick?
01:30Yep. You were right. Lipstick wasn't Sarah's.
01:33Original IO only swallowed the outside.
01:35Darcy tested the actual lipstick, got a sample.
01:38And a hidden CODIS.
01:40Hell yes.
01:42DNA matched a woman named Naomi Bennett in the system for a 2003 felony.
01:55Naomi Bennett arrested in 2003 for a hot prowl in Sacramento.
01:59Hot prowl?
02:00A burglary with an occupant inside.
02:02Naomi broke into the home of a woman.
02:0426 years old, living alone, asleep in her bed at the time.
02:07Sounds like one of our victims.
02:09What if our killer wasn't a solo act?
02:11Hmm.
02:12You think this Naomi person may be working with him?
02:14Could be.
02:15Female accomplice?
02:16It's not that uncommon, actually.
02:18Gerald and Charlene Gallego, Myra Henley and Ian Brady, the Ken and Barbie killers.
02:23Okay.
02:24Read it.
02:25All right.
02:26Deep dive on Naomi.
02:28Every database we got.
02:29Forwards and backwards from 03.
02:31Get creative.
02:32Flag on the play, the serial killer's accomplice theory doesn't hold.
02:43November 2000 saw tell.
02:45Check it out.
02:53Naomi Bennett was assaulted?
02:55Strangled in her home.
02:56Left for dead.
02:57November 2000?
03:01That was five months before Sarah Parman's murder.
03:04Naomi Bennett wasn't an accomplice.
03:11She was a victim.
03:22A victim who survived.
03:24The End
03:25This is huge.
03:38She could ID your serial killer.
03:40That's what we're hoping.
03:41Thing is, she's in Madeira.
03:43Madeira?
03:44It's a cow town, Central Valley.
03:46I did check.
03:47The department plane is available.
03:49That's not happening.
03:51Just get Madeira PD to set up a virtual interview.
03:54You want me to retraumatize an assault victim on Zoom,
03:57and then try to extract 25-year-old details from her?
04:01Good point.
04:03Have a nice drive.
04:06Right.
04:10On the corruption case, DA's office wants written statements from your team.
04:14Are you hearing anything else from them?
04:16Case is strong.
04:18Indictments should be coming in the next week or two.
04:21I bet it feels good knowing what you've been through with Olivas.
04:26But, Renee, he's well-liked.
04:28So, let's keep your head down.
04:32Copy that.
04:35Hey, Parker. Pack a bag. Meet me at the Amundsen.
04:37We leave in 45.
04:50Whoa.
04:52Renee Ballard.
04:54Jay Edgar.
04:55It's been a while.
04:56You good?
04:57Trying to be.
04:58Heard you're breaking the Sarah Pearlman case open.
05:01Turned the cold murder hot.
05:03Heard from who?
05:04Mutual friend.
05:08I'm glad, Ballard.
05:09I'm glad you landed on your feet.
05:11Hmm.
05:12Jury's still out.
05:14I don't know.
05:16I'm hearing rumblings.
05:17The clothes is big one.
05:19They might bump me back up to Homicide.
05:23How many department rumors turn out to be true? Come on.
05:25This one has legs.
05:26I'm crossing my fingers because I could use them as a partner.
05:29Yeah?
05:30Who they got you with?
05:31They got me with Tomlinson.
05:33And I kid you not, this guy spends all day checking Bitcoin.
05:35They're out of trouble, Renee.
05:38I cannot believe you got Bertram to approve the plane.
05:55Well.
05:56Well?
05:58He didn't.
05:59Hope you like a road trip.
06:01I guess.
06:02As long as you let me DJ.
06:04What?
06:05News on the corruption case?
06:06No.
06:07It's LaFont.
06:08He just got approval to go see Gael and collect his DNA.
06:10We might actually reunite this kid with his mom.
06:14You know, everything is coming up cold case unit.
06:17Look, I know we took some bad beats, but...
06:19You can feel it, right?
06:20I saw the bigs coming around the corner.
06:22You sound like Colleen.
06:28Okay, sounds good.
06:29Will do.
06:31That was Ballard.
06:32She said that the DA's office is requesting written statements
06:35on the Manny Santos case.
06:36So, while we wait for her and Parker...
06:38Well, written statements.
06:39Letters, make words, left to right.
06:42Can you put that thing down?
06:43No, I mean, statements about what?
06:45Exactly.
06:46Well, let's ask the expert, detective.
06:48Okay.
06:49The DA's office wants statements about...
06:50Oh, I heard.
06:52Um...
06:53Detail your actions during the investigation.
06:55Be specific.
06:56Stick to your own POV.
06:57It'll be different for each of you.
07:00Ugh.
07:01Homework.
07:04You okay with that?
07:05Uh, yeah.
07:08I think I'm gonna enjoy this.
07:10Especially the ending.
07:11Just stick to the facts.
07:13And if you need any help.
07:14Hey.
07:15Everything okay?
07:16Yeah.
07:17I got Gael's DNA.
07:18Oh, that's a good thing.
07:19Isn't it?
07:20Yeah.
07:21Darcy's gonna run it, but it's just the foster home.
07:22I mean, it's a caring place, but they're under-resourced.
07:23Even when the system is working, it's not working well enough.
07:27Ugh.
07:28It's a shame.
07:29Yeah, Darcy's gonna run it, but it's just the foster home.
07:33I mean, it's a caring place, but they're under-resourced.
07:36Even when the system is working, it's not working well enough.
07:42Ugh, it's a shame.
08:00God, I hate this part.
08:08Ms. Bennett? I'm Detective Renee Ballard.
08:11This is Officer Parker over at the LAPD.
08:14We'd like to ask you some questions.
08:16About...
08:18November 2000.
08:23All of them are dead.
08:26And...
08:29And I'm-I'm the only one.
08:32I know.
08:33It's a lot to process.
08:37That was decades ago, and I could barely remember any details back then.
08:42The detectives, they would ask me questions, but...
08:46It's like my mind didn't want me to remember.
08:53I-I don't know how to explain it.
08:57I understand.
09:00I do.
09:01But the smallest detail could help us.
09:05We'd like to show you some things.
09:07See if they spark your memory.
09:13I don't know.
09:15Actually, you know, why don't we, um...
09:19Why don't we give you the night?
09:21And we can speak to you in the morning.
09:24Okay?
09:28You had a feeling?
09:30Now who sounds more like Colleen?
09:33I know.
09:34But I could tell that she was boxing us out.
09:38Sometimes you only get one shot.
09:40Yeah.
09:41But it could take time.
09:43You know.
09:44We've been through it.
09:48I still can't believe we got them.
09:50Oh boy.
09:51Well, I don't know what business brings ladies like you to this fair part of the country, but...
10:02God bless capitalism.
10:04Work trip, am I right?
10:05You sure are, cowboy.
10:06I knew it.
10:08Let me buy you a round.
10:10Uh, we're still in the middle of this one, actually.
10:13Oh, come on.
10:14I'll work and no play.
10:15Is that it?
10:16Let's have some fun!
10:17Oh.
10:20Oh, don't you worry.
10:22I got a permit for it.
10:24And, uh...
10:26I know how to handle it.
10:28Fastest hands in the west, I bet.
10:30Like Billy the goddamn kid.
10:33So...
10:35How about it?
10:37And we're just finishing up our wings and...
10:39How to tip and back beers?
10:41Well, what if I could get my hands on something to, uh...
10:45Light up the night a little bit.
10:47Catch my dream.
10:48Come on.
10:50I think we do.
10:51Yeah?
10:52Mm-hmm.
10:54Oh, um...
10:56You know what?
10:57I got a permit for mine, too.
10:58Right.
10:59I, uh...
11:00Go on now.
11:01Okay.
11:05Sometimes it's just too fun.
11:10I don't want to move too fast with Naomi.
11:13Just got that assault buried so deep, we could lose our chance if we don't tread carefully.
11:17I don't know.
11:19What if we do the opposite?
11:24Morning, Miss Bennett.
11:25Good morning.
11:26Look, I'm so sorry.
11:28I stayed up all night wrecking my brain and...
11:31I really want to help you, but...
11:34There's nothing to tell.
11:35I've moved on.
11:37Naomi.
11:40Look, hear me out.
11:42I know this is hard.
11:44But the reality is we need you to do this for all the women that he's hurt.
11:48And all the women that he could hurt.
11:49It's not that I don't want to.
11:56I just...
11:58Can't.
11:59Yeah, because you're too far from it.
12:02It's like you said, your mind won't let you.
12:05Maybe that'll change if you go all in.
12:09Come back to L.A. with us.
12:11Wait, come back to L.A.?
12:13Maybe if you go back and you immerse yourself...
12:17It's a way to remember.
12:18It's a way to remember.
12:41Wait.
12:43Is that...
12:45That's how we found you.
12:47Wow.
13:09Everything fell apart for that girl.
13:13Can you tell us more?
13:16Come.
13:33Um...
13:34After what happened, I, um...
13:37I just left.
13:38You know?
13:40Although getting away would help, I started drinking.
13:43And then...
13:46I couldn't drink enough.
13:49The first time I tried coke, I was like, thank God.
13:53But...
13:55Eventually that wasn't enough either, so...
14:00After that, um...
14:03I got arrested.
14:05The burglary.
14:06You know, three?
14:07I tried to break into my friend's house, and...
14:11Ugh.
14:14That was...
14:16My rock bottom.
14:18That was the end of a nosedive.
14:20It all started with him.
14:25Things were good before that, so...
14:27It's like I look at this girl, and I said...
14:29It just...
14:30It just crushes me, you know?
14:39When you say good...
14:43I was happy.
14:47I had my own place.
14:49I've been grinding through beauty school...
14:51For years, and paying my own way.
14:55And then I finally...
14:58Finally...
15:00Got a chair in the salon, and I was like...
15:03And...
15:05I mean, I skipped to work every day.
15:08It might not seem like much, but...
15:11I think it was everything to me.
15:17Two months before Naomi was attacked, she landed a chair at Jolie and Mar Vista.
15:32That sounds familiar.
15:34Like Elena's promotion, or Laura Wilson's commercial gig.
15:37But for that to motivate our guy to go after Naomi,
15:39you'd have to know about it.
15:41Exactly.
15:42So look for anyone with proximity.
15:44Friends, family, employees at the salon.
15:47Uh, employees at the Jolie strip mall.
15:49Anyone.
15:51Councilman Perlman.
15:53Everything all right?
15:55Things are turning nasty with the election coming up.
15:58My opponent wants to make my connection to the cold case unit,
16:01a central campaign point against me.
16:04Guys, I am working as fast as I can.
16:05And we recognize that.
16:07But we have another ask.
16:09We're setting up an interview with KTLA to get in front of the narrative.
16:12And we want you...
16:13No.
16:15We want you to join Jake on camera.
16:16Hell no.
16:17You came here to talk politics?
16:18I have a million...
16:19We wanted to meet in person.
16:21Talk it out.
16:22Bullshit.
16:23You knew that if you called me, I'd hang up on you.
16:25Okay, just try to think big picture here, Ballard.
16:28It's not just Councilman's political career that's on the line.
16:31It's his influence.
16:43What's this?
16:44I knew everything about my relationship with Manny.
16:46Right up to his arrest.
16:47And why are you giving it to me?
16:49Make sure it's thorough.
16:51Professional.
16:52I don't want anything to screw this up.
16:54Oh.
16:55I'm sure LaFont probably...
16:57LaFont's too nice, to be honest.
17:00You like the tact to be polite.
17:03Okay, then.
17:06Hey, Ballard.
17:07Hey.
17:08I found, uh, something.
17:11Back in 2000, there was a hot-wing spot at the Jolie Mall right next to the salon.
17:16Had an employee named Casey Robbins.
17:18Casey Robbins have a record?
17:20Oh, no, something more than that.
17:23In 2000, Casey Robbins lived in Palms on Jasmine Avenue, just north of Venice.
17:27One of the same blocks that another victim, Josie Culver, canvas for Hillary Clinton.
17:34Josie Culver knocked on Casey Robbins' door.
17:37He has a connection to two of our victims?
17:40That's something, all right.
17:41I told you.
17:43Can you get a photo of him from 2000?
17:50Naomi, I know it's been a long time, but do you recognize this man?
17:57I'm-I'm not sure.
18:08I-I still can't picture his face, but I'm trying.
18:13Don't worry about it.
18:14It's okay.
18:20Where's Casey right now?
18:22I couldn't find a current on him, but found his bomb.
18:24Woodland Hills.
18:25All right.
18:26Rawls and I would go check it out.
18:27You guys cross-reference every victim with the Sky Robbins, all right?
18:30This is our angle.
18:32Rawls.
18:33What?
18:34Shit women have to deal with.
18:47It's messed up.
18:50I just-I read Martina's statement.
18:52And everything that happened to Naomi.
18:56I mean, all-all these cases.
18:58Yeah.
18:59It's not ideal.
19:03And you're expected to date under these circumstances?
19:05I mean, honestly, what's that like?
19:08I mean, I guess it's like getting on the 405.
19:13Traffic sucks, but you still gotta get across town.
19:21What about you?
19:23Dating-wise?
19:24Dating-wise.
19:25Oh, you mean my foundation?
19:27What?
19:28Oh, Ted Rawls Foundation for Hungry Single Women.
19:31It's our mission to feed any hungry single woman at LA's finest establishment,
19:36drinks included, for four dates, give or take, until we amicably part ways.
19:41Jesus, Ted.
19:47I mean, I date.
19:48I haven't been in a relationship in forever.
19:54It's like 101 probably says that you can't have my dad
19:58and come away with a winning approach to love.
20:02I don't know, maybe I'm part of the problem.
20:07Well, at least you're rich.
20:12Yeah.
20:19Yeah, I could believe a serial killer grew up here.
20:23Yeah.
20:24Only one car.
20:26Why don't you check out back?
20:27Uh-huh.
20:41Hi.
20:45You hear about the dog, then?
20:47The dog?
20:48You're a little early.
20:52Don't just stand there.
20:53You're a cow.
20:54I love law and order.
20:55You have the right to remain silent.
21:07You know, after the apocalypse, all that will be left are cockroaches and cop shows.
21:23And that will be just fine by me.
21:24You live alone?
21:25Well, I did, until my son moved back in.
21:29Casey.
21:30He's a real mama's boy.
21:31Is your son here right now?
21:35No.
21:36No.
21:37No.
21:38No.
21:39No.
21:40No.
21:41He stepped out.
21:42Do you mind if I use your restroom?
21:43I just had too much coffee on the way in.
21:45Uh, sure.
21:46Sure.
21:47Sure, if you're brave enough, you'll go right now.
21:54No.
21:55Sure.
21:56Sure, if you're brave enough, you'll go right now.
21:58No, no.
21:59We'll take off.
22:03What else do you want?
22:04Some people do?
22:05Even close answers.
22:06Well, I don't even know who's out.
22:08I don't know who else is.
22:12Sure, if you're brave enough.
22:13enough. You go right ahead. Thanks.
22:18You okay? Hope you didn't fall in.
22:40Come on now, let's get what you came for.
22:47Uh, actually, I just realized that I...
22:54Oh, dear. There you are, sweetie. Hi.
23:02Who the hell is this?
23:04Just the woman about the dog.
23:06That woman can't... Who the hell are you?
23:10She's a cop. Got a badge and everything.
23:13Yeah, I think I should just get out of here.
23:15That's a good idea.
23:17Anything you say can never be used against you.
23:19Step aside.
23:23Step aside.
23:25Everything good in here?
23:27Ross? Do you want to get the car started?
23:30Get Animal Services over here and call SAS.
23:38That creep doesn't go anywhere without a shadow.
23:40Looks like a horror show in there.
23:41Think he'll consent to a search?
23:42He doesn't have to.
23:44He already got his DNA.
23:46Oh.
23:47Oh, my God.
23:48Hey, now.
23:49Hey.
23:50Tutu?
23:51Wow.
23:52I mean, it's... it's 930.
23:54A perfectly respectable time for mimosas.
24:10Hey, now.
24:11Hey.
24:13Tutu.
24:14Wow.
24:15I mean, it's 9.30.
24:17A perfectly respectable time for mimosas.
24:20This new lead sounds like a cause for celebration.
24:25Maybe.
24:26Under normal circumstances.
24:30And how would one describe current circumstances?
24:35Well, if I solve this serial case,
24:38there could be a move back to homicide in my future.
24:41And that's not a good thing?
24:47You like where you are.
24:52You know, I think I might.
24:56Even more reason to celebrate.
24:57I'll get the glasses.
25:06God damn it.
25:08Hey, what's up?
25:13Hey, Parker.
25:14Casey's a bust.
25:15The toothbrush sample didn't match the DNA we got from the palm print.
25:19No.
25:20God, I knew we were supposed to take a morning off.
25:22But I need you to get Naomi into a black and white.
25:25It's time for her to go see the apartment.
25:27You sure she's ready for that?
25:28She has to be.
25:30Okay.
25:30We'll meet you there.
25:31Crap.
25:32You know what?
25:32I can't.
25:33I'm going to go meet Pearlman and Hastings to prep for this stupid interview.
25:36You know what?
25:38You go.
25:39Take the font.
25:40You got it.
25:45No notes.
25:46Great job.
25:47Really?
25:48Actually, one note.
25:51That guy was an asshole.
25:55Uh, uh, wait.
25:57Two notes.
26:00You know you deserve better than that, right?
26:02Okay, good.
26:13Good morning.
26:14Good morning.
26:15How'd you sleep?
26:17I'm not sure that I did.
26:19Okay.
26:20Well, unit's currently empty, so we can take all the time we need.
26:24Okay.
26:24Okay.
26:32The memories are there.
26:34Just let them surface.
26:39It's weird.
26:42Smells the same.
26:51I had only been here a few months.
26:55My first place by myself.
26:57I don't know.
27:02Uh, that night I, uh, had drinks after work with a few friends from the salon, and then I came home.
27:18Not too late.
27:21Do you remember anything being off when you got home?
27:29No.
27:30That creek.
27:41Uh, I used to step over that creek.
27:48But that night, I heard it, and I knew somebody was in the apartment.
27:52Where were you, when you heard it?
28:07Home.
28:09I was, I was asleep.
28:13In bed.
28:15There.
28:15There was a dresser on that wall.
28:23Used to be a, a fan there.
28:29What's that sound?
28:31It was after, uh, he wasn't after her.
28:35I, uh, I, uh, I remember when he was, there were people outside.
28:53They were laughing.
28:54And his, uh, his eyes.
29:00I remember his eyes.
29:05They were brown.
29:06You're sure?
29:07I'm positive.
29:09Um.
29:10Oh, God.
29:13I can almost see his face.
29:18And then it fades away.
29:20Oh, yeah.
29:25Shit.
29:25Okay.
29:26Okay.
29:27Don't hurt me.
29:28Don't force it, okay?
29:29This was really good, Naomi.
29:31I just need a minute there.
29:39Okay.
29:40I'll just...
29:41Progress.
29:49A little.
29:51Just...
29:52I just hope it was worth it.
29:54Oh, she'll get there.
29:56She's doing good.
29:58I'll call Ballard.
29:59Ask her to put in a request for a sketch artist.
30:08There are over 6,000 unsolved murders in this city.
30:11Many of them involving victims with families who don't have the power to pull strings.
30:16As a son of a blue-collar mom and dad, I know what that's like.
30:19And now with this unit, I'm using my position to fight like hell for all those families waiting for answers.
30:26But, Councilman, what do you have to say to those critics who say you are funneling money into solving your sister's murder while the city's crime and homelessness problems spin out of control?
30:36Well, I'd say those critics are misguided.
30:40Councilman, may I?
30:42Please?
30:44Sherry, you mentioned funneling money.
30:47The cold case unit has one full-salary employee.
30:51Me.
30:51The rest of my team are volunteers.
30:54We work in the basement of this building, and yet we're still getting results.
30:58Just last week, we closed a case, murder of a 19-year-old boy.
31:01We arrested a killer who was walking the streets for seven years.
31:05Well, that's impressive, but if Detective Ballard is actually clearing cases, like she says, then why is it that your office is in discussions with the police commission about replacing her?
31:16Well, I'm not sure where you're getting your information, but whenever we play with taxpayer money, it's always important to constantly reassess.
31:29What the hell?
31:30First I'm hearing about it.
31:32Resources are properly allocated.
31:34It was due diligence after the attack at your house, that's all.
31:37Then why did you say that?
31:38There was also some concern about the other case you were building, against Robert Olivas.
31:46What?
31:47It was suggested that there might have been some personal motivation.
31:50We should have back-channeled.
31:51This was a mistake.
31:52Oh, on that, I wholeheartedly agree.
32:05Hey.
32:06Oh, hey.
32:06Please tell me you were up here.
32:08I did, but, um, I...
32:11What?
32:11I told him he could come in.
32:14But...
32:32Hey.
32:34Hi.
32:36Sorry to swing by.
32:38I wanted to talk to you in person.
32:39Okay.
32:40Okay.
32:40Um...
32:43We...
32:48We started this casually.
32:51That was the agreement.
32:55And it was good.
32:57It was great.
32:59But when you were attacked, and I was on the other end of that call with you, I...
33:08It was awful.
33:11I mean, I was worried about you, obviously, but...
33:16It was more than that.
33:18And I realized...
33:19And I realized...
33:20I want something more.
33:31I...
33:31I...
33:31I don't know what to say.
33:36No, you don't have to say anything.
33:39Because I know you can't give something more right now, anyway.
33:43I can't let myself be a casualty here.
34:00I'm sorry, Renee.
34:01I don't know.
34:03It's...
34:04I don't know.
34:04I don't know what to say.
34:06I...
34:06I don't know.
34:06You're quiet this morning.
34:32More than usual.
34:34Everything good?
34:35Brown eyes.
34:37That's all we got so far.
34:39She didn't give you anything else.
34:41Okay, but she will.
34:43Or she might.
34:45You know, she was with the sketch artist all morning.
34:48Maybe there was some progress made.
34:49We're putting her through all of this again.
34:52How much damage is worth doing to her
34:54if we don't even get what we need?
34:56Come on.
34:57You know sometimes it just takes one thing to blow open a case.
35:00Just one tiny thing.
35:01And you know that sometimes that thing never comes.
35:04Good morning.
35:10Good morning.
35:10Morning.
35:12How are you doing?
35:13I'm fine.
35:14But why are we here if the assault happened in my apartment?
35:18Because we're struggling, Naomi.
35:20How are you?
35:20It's true.
35:24That picture we showed you of Casey Robbins, that was a miss.
35:28And we ran the list of employees at the strip mall three times.
35:32Nothing.
35:33So, maybe being back here will spark something.
35:38Can you tell me which one this lawn was?
35:40Um, my chair was by that window.
35:46Do you remember any male clients that stood out to you?
35:50Jolie only serviced women.
35:51Any coffee shops or restaurants nearby that you go to?
35:55I used to bring my own food.
35:58What are the chances of you actually finding this guy?
36:01I mean, if I can't remember.
36:04Is there some other way?
36:06We're figuring it out.
36:07Okay?
36:07Don't get discouraged.
36:08Why didn't she park in the lot?
36:12That employee shouldn't park in the lot.
36:15Um, when I worked here, the company that owned the mall didn't allow employees to park out front.
36:22So, we had to park around the corner up a side street.
36:27Can you show us where?
36:29Let's find out who lived here back in 2000.
36:32Naomi was parking here.
36:33She could have been spotted on the way to work.
36:38You know that building?
36:42It was under construction back then.
36:51Parker.
36:52Sorry.
36:53Naomi's with me.
36:54All right, guys.
37:00We're expanding our search to the 1400 block of Ashland.
37:03Naomi parked off-site, so there's a chance she encountered our killer there.
37:06Right.
37:07I'll look into ownership records, divvy them up with Martino.
37:10Okay.
37:11Hey, where's Rawls?
37:12Isn't he supposed to be here?
37:14He called.
37:14Uh, said he had something to do on his way in.
37:16All right, we'll fold him in when he gets here.
37:18I'm fine.
37:18Mm.
37:21Naomi didn't recognize her attacker, which means he was on the periphery of her life.
37:26Someone she never noticed, but who noticed her.
37:28Yeah.
37:29There was a real estate office on the corner.
37:31It was renovated in 2000.
37:32And I spoke to the owner, and he said he was going to send me a list of subcontractors.
37:37Oh, he already did.
37:39Great.
37:39I'm going to forward this to you so that you can have a...
37:42No.
37:45No way.
37:49What?
37:56No fucking way.
37:58That, uh...
37:58That's got to be a coincidence.
38:02Right?
38:02Naomi, these men may or may not have been involved in your attack.
38:10But can you tell me if you recognize any of them?
38:16Okay.
38:18All right.
38:18It's number four.
38:35Definitely.
38:36Oh, my God.
38:38Oh, my God.
38:40Naomi, are you sure?
38:41I'm sorry.
38:42I'm sorry.
38:43I'm sorry.
38:45I'm sorry.
38:46I'm sorry.
38:47I'm sorry.
38:48Oh, my God.
38:51So...
38:55Tom, it's him.
38:58Who?
39:00Gary Prolman.
39:04What?
39:05The councilman's dad?
39:09Oh, my God.
39:11Prolman Electric was one of the subs on the landmark realty build-out.
39:14Gary watched her walk to her new job every day.
39:19To her new life.
39:22She was on top of the world.
39:25And he couldn't have that.
39:26Why didn't anyone flag a connection in the DNA?
39:31There wasn't one.
39:31I reviewed the results with Darcy myself.
39:33I reviewed the results with Darcy myself.
39:35We need Gary's DNA.
39:36Where's...
39:37Where's Rawls?
39:40I mean, she ruffles feathers.
39:42I get it.
39:43But replacing her would be a colossal mistake.
39:46And Jake...
39:47He needs to know that.
39:49I'm sorry.
39:52He said he'd be about 20 minutes.
39:54You don't mind me waiting here for him?
39:56No, not at all.
39:58You've really changed your tune on her, haven't you?
40:03Can I assume she's making headway in Sarah's case?
40:06Oh, yeah.
40:08We found a living victim.
40:11You believe that?
40:11You're kidding.
40:15No.
40:16No.
40:16Killer left her for dead in 2000.
40:22Wow.
40:26So, uh...
40:27What has she told you?
40:30I mean...
40:31Did she ID the son of a bitch?
40:33No, but it's been a lot of years.
40:36You know, a lot of...
40:38A lot of trauma to wade through.
40:41Yeah.
40:42But Ballard, you know, she doesn't waste an opportunity.
40:45Speaking of...
40:48Yo, boss, what's up?
40:50Hey, Rals, listen.
40:51I know this is gonna sound crazy, but it's true.
40:55Naomi just IDed Gary Pearlman.
40:57He's our killer.
40:58What?
40:59Yeah.
41:01We need you back here, now.
41:03Uh...
41:04Yeah, yeah, I can work on that for you.
41:09Rals, where are you?
41:10I-I stopped by Jake's place.
41:15With his dad.
41:20Um...
41:20But I-I'll be back at the office soon.
41:23It's all good.
41:25No, Gary!
41:26Wait!
41:26Wait!
41:29Rals?
41:29Rals?
41:29No, Gary!
41:30No!
41:31No!
41:32No!
41:32Oh, my God.
