Does she lives close by?

Yeah, Fort Wakashie.

- North a ways.

- What's a ways'?

About a 30 minutes drive.

Ok, well, she didn't run from home then.

She's frozen solid.

No one reported her missing?

Her parents?

No.

Yeah, that's why we called you.

How experienced is your medical examiner?

Just to say... He stays busy.

Order a rape kit,

When he's done with his prelim,

I want her body sent to Lovelind.

Make sure her belongings

go with her... they need to get tested too.

I'm listing this as a homicide.

How well do you know this land?

Like it's my job. Which it is.

Well is there anywhere she could be

running from? Is there anything close by?

Nearest houses..

3.5 miles from here southeast.

- Sam Little feathers place is over there..

- Yep.

Those boys could use some

serious looking into.

There's no structures closer?

There are drill rigs five miles from here..

They got trailers for the workers., but...

That's closed for the winter.

So why would a teenage girl be out here?

Well kids come out here on their

snow machines.

And have a big party in the snow.

Not barefoot.. they don't.

- What do you think?

- I know what the tracks say.

- Okay, That's all we got.

- Come here, I'll show you.

Come right here. See this one..

See how the toes turned out?

..the front is much deeper than the back.

That says she was running.

Come here, let me show you.

She ran until she dropped.. here.

See the pool of blood

where her face hit the snow.?

Now it gets twenty below here

at night.

So if you fill your lungs up

with that cold air.

when you're running..

it could freeze em up.

Your lungs fill up with blood,

you start coughing it up

So.. wherever she came from,

she ran all the way here.

Her lungs burst here.

She curled up in that tree line

drowned up in her own blood.

How far do you think someone

can run barefoot out here?

Oh.. I don't know.

How to gauge someone's will to live...

... especially in these conditions?

But I knew that girl.

She was a fighter.

So no matter how far you think she ran...

... I can guarantee you she ran farther.

I got to get back to my son.

Hey, um.. Would you be willing to help me?

I can't.. I couldn't find the way

back to my car if I drive.

I really don't know how

to investigate this in...

Hey.. Can I borrow him for a few days?

What? He doesn't work for me.

You got a lion to kill, don't forget.

There's three o 'em. And I didn't.

Sorry.. what is it..

what is it that you to again?

- Hunter.

- You are a lion hunter?

I hunt predators.

Good. Why don't you

come hunt one for me then?

Okay.

Dad?

Hey, bud.

You happen to can't sleep?

I had a nightmare.
