Joe this, Joe that.
189
00:09:14,667 --> 00:09:18,750
That black cop must have come
around the projects regular.
190
00:09:18,834 --> 00:09:21,458
'Cause he knew enough
not to park at the
curb.
191
00:09:21,542 --> 00:09:24,041
Those drug dealers will
see him a-coming a mile away.

look like?

Skinny, young, black.
194

Struttin' around like
some sorta crazy
rooster.
195
00:09:33,709 --> 00:09:37,750
My eyes been bad since forever.
Can't tell you more.
196
00:09:37,834 --> 00:09:40,166
But I did hear those druggies
callin' him The Runner.
197
00:09:41,625 --> 00:09:43,750
- What?
- The Runner.
198

(Rush)
'Thank you, Miss Munez.'
200
00:09:51,875 --> 00:09:54,709
Washington called the
killer
that on the tape.
201
00:09:54,792 --> 00:09:55,959
The Runner.
202
00:09:56,041 --> 00:09:57,917
'Cause he knew him.
203
00:09:58,000 --> 00:09:59,917
They both knew each other.
204
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:01,208
Real well.
205
00:10:07,166 --> 00:10:08,875
(Jeffries)
I did patrol of the Raymond
Jennings Projects in the 70s.
206
00:10:08,959 --> 00:10:11,125
Never heard the name,
The Runner.
207
00:10:11,208 --> 00:10:12,333
Guy ain't in the system
anywhere.
208
00:10:12,417 --> 00:10:14,000
No arrests, nothin'.
209
00:10:14,083 --> 00:10:16,834
So how did this Runner
and Washington get so cozy then?
210
00:10:16,917 --> 00:10:18,792
And how did Washington know
those projects enough
211
00:10:18,875 --> 00:10:21,917
to know where to park when he
didn't even work that
district?
212
00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:23,792
Maybe he had it in
for drug dealers.
213
00:10:24,750 --> 00:10:26,375
Washington's patrol log.
214
00:10:26,458 --> 00:10:29,875
Radioed in calls on dealers
in his district constantly.
215
00:10:29,959 --> 00:10:31,709
Got into two altercations.
216
00:10:31,792 --> 00:10:33,291
There's a lot of hate here.
217
00:10:33,375 --> 00:10:34,542
Love hate.
218
00:10:34,625 --> 00:10:36,041
No arrests on his record.
219
00:10:36,125 --> 00:10:37,542
Smoke and mirrors?
220
00:10:37,625 --> 00:10:39,875
Hmm, acts tough
for appearances' sake
221
00:10:39,959 --> 00:10:41,542
but he's really on the take?
222
00:10:41,625 --> 00:10:43,375
Bank records don't show
cash coming in
223
00:10:43,458 --> 00:10:45,667
but there was cash going out
every few weeks.
224
00:10:45,750 --> 00:10:48,291
These didn't cover
his usual living expenses.
225
00:10:48,375 --> 00:10:51,291
He wrote clearly marked checks
for those, and..
226
00:10:51,375 --> 00:10:53,542
...these sums are big enough
to stand out.
227
00:10:53,625 --> 00:10:56,250
So what are we
thinkin'?
He buying drugs?
228
00:10:56,333 --> 00:11:00,125
No, addicts clean out bank
within a couple months.
229
00:11:00,208 --> 00:11:01,875
This doesn't follow
that pattern.
230
00:11:01,959 --> 00:11:03,834
So what was he doin'?
231
00:11:03,917 --> 00:11:05,208
Maybe his widow knows.
232
00:11:06,709 --> 00:11:07,875
(Diane)
'The Runner?'
233
00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:10,250
No, I never heard of him.
234
00:11:12,125 --> 00:11:14,041
(Rush)
How long were you married,
Diane?
235
00:11:15,208 --> 00:11:16,792
Ten months, two weeks.
236
00:11:19,041 --> 00:11:20,458
Was Joe a big spender?
237
00:11:20,542 --> 00:11:24,375
Um, first year
of marriage and all.
238
00:11:24,458 --> 00:11:26,208
No, we just got the house.
239
00:11:27,542 --> 00:11:29,166
Why?
240
00:11:29,250 --> 00:11:34,875
Um, these checks he wrote
for cash every few weeks
241
00:11:34,959 --> 00:11:37,291
um, do you know
what they were for?
242
00:11:39,458 --> 00:11:42,417
He got me flowers every Friday.
243
00:11:42,500 --> 00:11:43,750
'And movies.'
244
00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:46,291
We went to movies all the time.
245
00:11:47,667 --> 00:11:50,667
But I never thought
it would amount to that much.
246
00:11:54,375 --> 00:11:57,041
[sighs]
I thought things would be
different by now.
247
00:11:58,333 --> 00:11:59,875
That I'd be different.
248
00:12:03,333 --> 00:12:05,458
Time makes things worse,
not better.
249
00:12:07,333 --> 00:12:09,166
Maybe time also finds the truth.

remember from that day, Diane?

the assigned on the case

suspected the drug angle too.
344
00:16:55,333 --> 00:16:58,000

was Raymond Jennings

00:27:51,333 --> 00:27:54,208
I knew Joe.
What's your
point?
574
00:27:54,291 --> 00:27:55,667
The night he was murdered,
we got witnesses
575
00:27:55,750 --> 00:27:57,917
in the projects saying
you two had a fight.
576
00:27:58,000 --> 00:28:00,500

Remember what you were
fighting about?

I'll say it again,
I don't remember.

00:28:07,208 --> 00:28:08,917
How about Sammy?

00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:10,333
'Do you remember her?'
582
00:28:12,959 --> 00:28:14,291
Your point being?
583
00:28:14,375 --> 00:28:16,333
Oh, the girl had a lot of
problems, and from what I hear
584
00:28:16,417 --> 00:28:17,917
you had something
to do with it.
585
00:28:19,333 --> 00:28:21,417
Whatever problems
Sammy had
586
00:28:21,500 --> 00:28:23,500
were Joe's
doing,
not mine.

That's not what I hear.
588
00:28:26,834 --> 00:28:28,875
I hear it was all
on you, Mason.
589
00:28:28,959 --> 00:28:33,000
Then I suggest you check
the hospital records
yourself.

brought her in, not
me.

too,

That isn't who I am now.
598
00:29:01,500 --> 00:29:03,917
(Rush)
'Sammy was like a little
sister
to Washington.'
599
00:29:04,000 --> 00:29:05,625
He felt responsible for her
600
00:29:05,709 --> 00:29:09,333
so he flips when she starts
muling drugs for Mason Tucker.
601
00:29:11,542 --> 00:29:13,083
The night of the
murder,
Washington hears
602
00:29:13,166 --> 00:29:14,917
a radio call
about drug activity
603
00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:16,417
at the Raymond Jennings
Projects.
604
00:29:16,500 --> 00:29:18,333
And from the description,
he knows it's Mason?
605
00:29:18,417 --> 00:29:21,834
No, he goes to the projects,
fights with Mason
606
00:29:21,917 --> 00:29:23,834
gets Sammy's grandma
to okay his plan
607
00:29:23,917 --> 00:29:26,291

'Sammy's gone.'

Mason took off
610
00:29:29,250 --> 00:29:30,500
for the railroad tracks.
611
00:29:30,583 --> 00:29:31,834
He follows.
612
00:29:31,917 --> 00:29:33,917
And that's where
he ends up dead.
613
00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:37,375
And Mason drops off
the face of the earth.
614
00:29:37,458 --> 00:29:39,667
Only to re-emerge
as a law-abiding
615
00:29:39,750 --> 00:29:41,959
yacht-owning citizen
years later.
616
00:29:42,041 --> 00:29:44,542
Deante talked about
an incident that went
down
617
00:29:44,625 --> 00:29:47,333
between Mason,
Sammy and Washington
618
00:29:47,417 --> 00:29:48,583
years before the murder.
619
00:29:48,667 --> 00:29:50,041
Do we know what it was?
620
00:29:50,125 --> 00:29:52,041
Only that it put her
in the hospital.
621
00:29:53,750 --> 00:29:56,333
Mm-hmm. Please,
don't let it be
that.
622
00:29:57,291 --> 00:29:58,959
We gotta look at it.
623
00:29:59,041 --> 00:30:01,667
The nearest emergency room
is St. Joseph's.
624
00:30:01,750 --> 00:30:04,458
Well, the best person to ask
is Sammy herself.
625
00:30:04,542 --> 00:30:06,125
Check narcotic intelligence.

00:30:06,208 --> 00:30:07,709
(Vera)
'Just got the news.'
627
00:30:07,792 --> 00:30:09,959
We got a hit on the
fingerprint
inside the stolen car.
628
00:30:11,291 --> 00:30:13,375
The killer's car?
629
00:30:13,458 --> 00:30:15,333

matches Samantha Robbins.

Thanks for the tip
about the hospital.
634
00:30:37,917 --> 00:30:41,500
So Sammy OD'd on heroin
in 1971.

get her hands on
that?

- I wouldn't know.
- Huh!
637
00:30:46,625 --> 00:30:50,583
No? 'Cause Washington told
the doctors you gave it to
her.
638

be her last.

- Maybe it will be.
- 'Why?'

'Cause maybe she's
looking
for forgiveness.

I thought Denise Funderbunk
was a pretty weird name.
