CSI:NY Episode 4.07 — "Commuted Sentences"
The episode starts off with an attractive female rushing into her apartment and she’s covered in blood. She runs into the bathroom to start washing off the blood all the while hysterically crying.
Detective Flack busts into the door and sees her standing in the bathroom clean and completely naked. As they escort her out of her building Det. Taylor and Stella are examining the victim who’s been stabbed multiple times. Turns out he’s a Mitchell Bentley, a rich boy that was just acquitted of a assault and rape in Central Park. No offensive wounds and running in circles causes Mac and Stella to wonder why he didn’t just run away. They continue searching for clues as to what happened.
In our other victim case, Danny, Dr. Hawkes and Lindsay investigate the body of a woman on the steps of a museum that was shot in the back. Not robbed, just murdered.
With victim number one we find out that the accuracy of the stabbing wound locations did an effective job of immobilizing the victim. The killer “has an intimate knowledge of the human anatomy”. The medical examiner thinks they should be looking for someone with medical knowledge. The naked lady is looking pretty guilty as she was the one the victim was accused of raping, ran by her door man and never asked anyone to call the police. She admits she would have loved to kill him, but she wasn’t the one that did it.
Mac comes in to question the girl now. He’s got a photo of her with her fingerprints all over the victim’s neck, along with a scrap of material from her coat.
Stella finds out that the knives could have been hidden in a female’s hairdo as styling sticks. There was also hairspray residue on the knives also confirming this idea. Mac suggests that the method of murder and evidence found suggests that the placement of each knife is reminiscent of a bull fight. Each knife strategically placed in order with accurate precision.
Dr. Hawkes and the medical examiner determine that the reason for the conflicting entrance/exit wounds from the gun shot is due to the barrel of the gun being placed against the place of entrance and support and pressure on the back of the victim. They suggest that the person ended up shooting himself through the woman’s body as he was wrestling the gun away. Lindsay and Danny go back to the crime scene to look for the bullet in the opposite direction of their existing search.
Stella and Det. Flack go back to the “Casa de Matador Grille” as it’s the location of the victim’s last meal. The maitre’ d said it wasn’t the blonde they expect, but a “hot brunette”. It turns out she made the reservation under the name “Florence Nightingale”, paid for it herself and left very upset but also left a good tip. The reason for her angered departure was because it seems she dropped a fake eye-lash with diamond studs woven into it at a price of $5,000. The brunette ends up being a publisher that was pursuing him for his story.
The suspect brunette hops into the back of the car as Det. Flack is flirting with another cop. She, in a very cocky attitude, says since they’re going to be following her, they should have her itinerary. After a few more wisecracks laced with more attitude, she leaves the car. Det. Flack says that she’s annoying and jumps into the back seat to et some evidence so the next time he sees her he can put her in handcuffs.
Through some funky bacteria, the team tracks down that the girl at the museum got food poisoning along with some other people. One of those other people showed up at an ER and demanded high-strength pain killer, a little odd for food poisoning but not so much for a gunshot wound to the shoulder. He was earlier acquitted for murder as well.
It was a rich female’s CEO club of murder. Both women had been raped and were looking for revenge by becoming “judge, jury and executioner” according the Mac. She killed Mitchell Bentley and left him in the park so the blonde would find him. As the blonde and brunette were walking past each other in the hallway though, I got the feeling the blonde was in on the planning as well.
