Blowback Page #6

I got a--

I have a caring boss.

I have a new partner,

a little blonde lady

from Texas.

I have this fine ex-wife

who invites me to dinner

and I get to be the dinner.

( Laughs )

Maybe we ought to

get married again.

( Phone ringing )

Maybe not.

Morning.

there's no forced entry.

This way.

Hang on to your breakfast,

it ain't pretty.

The husband.

This guy's an afterthought.

What else you got?

Oh, god.

He took her breasts.

- St. Agatha.

- Who?

Martyred Saint.

Romans cut off her breasts

because she was a Christian.

Miraculously, she survived.

Carried them around before

her on a platter

- praising god.

- How do you know this?

I'm a catholic, I never

even heard of that.

For years,

scholars thought that

early depictions showed Agatha

carrying bells on a platter.

So they made her the patron

Saint of bell ringers.

John 20:
9.

"For as yet, they did

not know the scripture,

that he had risen again

from the dead."

John Matthew

Whitman's m.O.

Oh, there you are.

This is agent norwood,

f.B.I.

The local office offered us

his services as a profiler.

I figured we need all

the help we can get.

This is inspector morrell

and detective sergeant ricci.

Welcome to the team.

Whitman used any

method possible

to subdue his victim

and then

stage the crime scene

to mirror another martyred

Saint's death.

Hmm. so his method

of operation was variable,

but his signature

was static.

You two guys are going

to get along great.

- Norwood:
anything?

- Nope.

Why don't you...

Check the garbage

for discarded papers?

- Norwood, I don't

work for you.

- Hey, hey.

We got something here.

"Saltzman, 'tribune.'"

"jury interview."

You check Saltzman's alibi?

Backwards and forwards,

he's cool.

So the killer poses as

a reporter to gain entry.

But what about Whitman's

jury reference?

We talked to

the courthouse.

Sandra carlow was a member

of the jury,

and guess who else

was on the list?

- Ackers?

- you got it.

Right, so the copycat

knocked them off

because they

convicted his hero.

He might be going after

the other jurors.

Their identities have never

been made public,

- how could somebody

get their names?

- We'll check that.

I don't get this.

Why wait until now to

start offing jurors?

Whitman's younger

brother, Noah,

he always felt like

he grew up in his older

brother's shadow.

He just got paroled

a month ago.

Maybe this is his

own sick way of stepping

into the light.

Bring the son of a b*tch in.

- Hey, where did norwood go?

- I don't know.

We're definitely

not gonna wait for his ass.

- Okay.

- go.

Child:

give me the ball.

I want the ball.

Better let me go first.

He doesn't know me.
