1
00:00:06,298 --> 00:00:08,383
<i>Hey, Jerry.
We're still down here.</i>

2
00:00:08,467 --> 00:00:09,843
<i>We got nothing on this side.</i>

3
00:00:09,927 --> 00:00:11,970
<i>Let me know what's happening over there
with you.</i>

4
00:00:12,054 --> 00:00:16,892
<i>Uh, yeah, we're at the, uh,
bridge up at Spring Street back here.</i>

5
00:00:16,975 --> 00:00:19,728
<i>Um, if we could get some more lights,
it'd be great.</i>

6
00:00:44,127 --> 00:00:45,712
<i>Campbell, anything?</i>

7
00:00:48,006 --> 00:00:49,007
Negative.

8
00:00:49,091 --> 00:00:50,175
<i>Don't take your eyes
off the water</i>

9
00:00:50,259 --> 00:00:51,218
<i>until we get some boats down there.</i>

10
00:01:03,814 --> 00:01:04,731
Nothing.

11
00:01:05,440 --> 00:01:09,319
- Recruit's positive he heard a splash.
- We don't have a body, we can't hold him.

12
00:01:09,403 --> 00:01:10,612
We can hold him
for as long as it takes

13
00:01:10,696 --> 00:01:12,990
to search his vehicle.
Maybe we find something in the car.

14
00:01:13,073 --> 00:01:14,157
If he'll let us.

15
00:01:14,241 --> 00:01:16,368
The name isn't on this registration.

16
00:01:16,702 --> 00:01:19,079
- Why are you driving it?
- It's my uncle's car.

17
00:01:19,162 --> 00:01:21,206
- Why do you have it?
- For work.

18
00:01:21,290 --> 00:01:22,958
At three o'clock in the morning?

19
00:01:23,041 --> 00:01:24,459
I'm in the music business.

20
00:01:24,876 --> 00:01:26,628
Nighttime is the right time.

21
00:01:26,712 --> 00:01:28,088
Right time for what?

22
00:01:28,171 --> 00:01:29,798
You mind if we search your vehicle,
Mr. Williams?

23
00:01:29,881 --> 00:01:31,091
Sure. Go ahead.

24
00:01:31,174 --> 00:01:33,010
Log everything for evidence
that I find in this car.

25
00:01:33,093 --> 00:01:35,846
So you were out working
this late at night?

26
00:01:35,929 --> 00:01:38,473
Well, I had to go pick up
a check. I'm a photographer.

27
00:01:38,557 --> 00:01:40,559
I thought you said
you were in the music business.

28
00:01:40,851 --> 00:01:42,144
I'm a Renaissance man.

29
00:01:42,227 --> 00:01:45,731
- So, where are you headed, da Vinci?
- A woman's apartment.

30
00:01:45,814 --> 00:01:47,399
- Girlfriend?
- Don't have a girlfriend.

31
00:01:47,774 --> 00:01:49,151
So who is she?

32
00:01:49,234 --> 00:01:51,903
A Miss, uh, Cheryl Johnson.
She gave me her number.

33
00:01:51,987 --> 00:01:53,739
Said she's a singer worth hearing.

34
00:01:56,325 --> 00:01:57,200
Jacobs!

35
00:01:59,536 --> 00:02:01,496
Run down there, try this number for me.

36
00:02:01,580 --> 00:02:03,123
By the way, it ends in a four.

37
00:02:03,206 --> 00:02:05,125
My dad says my fours look like nines.

38
00:02:05,208 --> 00:02:06,043
Okay.

39
00:02:06,126 --> 00:02:07,544
- Try 'em both.
- Got it.

40
00:02:08,211 --> 00:02:10,047
If you don't have a girlfriend,
whose are these?

41
00:02:10,130 --> 00:02:12,424
My mother's. They're garbage.
I'm supposed to throw all those out.

42
00:02:13,717 --> 00:02:16,762
That what you were doing on the bridge,
throwing out garbage?

43
00:02:16,970 --> 00:02:19,014
I wasn't doing nothing but crossing it.

44
00:02:19,097 --> 00:02:22,017
We heard a splash when you drove over.
You throw something off?

45
00:02:22,601 --> 00:02:24,645
- You mean like a kid?
- Yeah...

46
00:02:25,937 --> 00:02:26,897
like a kid.

47
00:02:27,689 --> 00:02:28,690
No, I did not.

48
00:02:29,650 --> 00:02:31,276
Do you own a dog, Mr. Williams?

49
00:02:32,110 --> 00:02:33,195
No, I do not.

50
00:02:33,278 --> 00:02:35,656
Note the hair on the back seat
and on the floor mats.

51
00:02:36,406 --> 00:02:37,616
What's the rope for?

52
00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:39,618
With knots at both ends?

53
00:02:40,744 --> 00:02:41,828
And the gloves?

54
00:02:42,287 --> 00:02:44,331
Like I said, it's not my car.

55
00:02:46,541 --> 00:02:48,210
Mind if we talk
where it's more comfortable

56
00:02:48,293 --> 00:02:49,586
while they finish up?

57
00:02:52,964 --> 00:02:54,549
Log every piece of evidence.

58
00:04:44,201 --> 00:04:48,205
So what makes Cheryl Johnson so special
you gotta hear her sing at 3:00 a.m.?

59
00:04:49,581 --> 00:04:50,791
Don't know yet.

60
00:04:50,874 --> 00:04:54,044
We got a meeting in the morning,
but I decided to do a trial run

61
00:04:54,127 --> 00:04:55,504
so I'll know where to go.

62
00:04:55,587 --> 00:04:57,881
- Where does she live?
- In Smyrna.

63
00:04:57,964 --> 00:04:59,049
Church Street.

64
00:05:00,675 --> 00:05:02,552
The FBI hiding
under every bridge in Atlanta now?

65
00:05:02,886 --> 00:05:05,722
If you don't mind, Mr. Williams,
we'll ask the questions.

66
00:05:06,014 --> 00:05:07,265
I get it. Confidential.

67
00:05:07,349 --> 00:05:09,518
<i>A-T-64. A-T-64.</i>

68
00:05:12,145 --> 00:05:13,855
A-T-64, go ahead.

69
00:05:13,939 --> 00:05:15,690
<i>The number
with the four is disconnected.</i>

70
00:05:15,774 --> 00:05:17,442
<i>With a nine, there's no answer.</i>

71
00:05:17,526 --> 00:05:19,986
- Roger.
- That was the number she gave me.

72
00:05:20,070 --> 00:05:22,739
Got an actual address for her
on Church Street?

73
00:05:23,490 --> 00:05:25,575
That's why I always get a phone number.

74
00:05:27,035 --> 00:05:28,954
Think I'll radio the admin agent.

75
00:05:29,329 --> 00:05:32,249
Let him know where we are with this.
Be right back.

76
00:05:40,841 --> 00:05:43,093
What do you think
your uncle uses rope for?

77
00:05:44,678 --> 00:05:47,305
Don't know. He's got so much stuff
in there. I don't touch any of it.

78
00:05:48,849 --> 00:05:53,019
- How did you know why we pulled you over?
- You're the FBI in Atlanta.

79
00:05:53,103 --> 00:05:55,647
What else is it gonna be about?
It's all that's ever on TV.

80
00:05:55,730 --> 00:05:57,065
You follow the story closely?

81
00:05:57,148 --> 00:05:59,526
- No, I'm just saying how it is.
- Wayne...

82
00:06:01,653 --> 00:06:04,281
- You mind if I call you Wayne?
- It's my name.

83
00:06:08,201 --> 00:06:10,954
Wayne, did you know any of the victims?
Their families?

84
00:06:11,413 --> 00:06:12,914
Think we all know each other?

85
00:06:13,540 --> 00:06:15,500
You didn't ask me if I know this cat.

86
00:06:15,584 --> 00:06:18,044
I'm specifically interested
in the victims.

87
00:06:18,795 --> 00:06:20,839
No. I wouldn't know any of 'em.

88
00:06:20,922 --> 00:06:22,215
You make it sound like
it wouldn't be possible.

89
00:06:22,299 --> 00:06:23,383
I'm not like them.

90
00:06:23,466 --> 00:06:24,968
Not like them? What does that mean?

91
00:06:25,051 --> 00:06:27,929
You know. Street kids.
Runnin' wild all hours of the night.

92
00:06:28,013 --> 00:06:29,806
This isn't "all hours of the night"?

93
00:06:29,973 --> 00:06:31,892
There's a difference in being
where you supposed to be

94
00:06:31,975 --> 00:06:33,310
and being where you aren't.

95
00:06:33,393 --> 00:06:35,395
What places are they not supposed to be?

96
00:06:35,478 --> 00:06:37,606
Like mall parking lots, maybe?
That sort of thing?

97
00:06:37,981 --> 00:06:39,733
If they're up to no good, yeah.

98
00:06:39,816 --> 00:06:40,775
Gentlemen...

99
00:06:41,610 --> 00:06:42,569
a word.

100
00:06:43,361 --> 00:06:44,279
Sit tight.

101
00:06:54,789 --> 00:06:55,624
What did he say?

102
00:06:55,707 --> 00:06:57,876
His first,
second, and third questions were,

103
00:06:57,959 --> 00:06:59,127
"Do you have a body?"

104
00:06:59,794 --> 00:07:01,880
- No.
- He says we have to let the guy go.

105
00:07:02,464 --> 00:07:03,673
We can't do that.

106
00:07:04,674 --> 00:07:07,302
That rope has knots on both its ends.
Next to a pair of gloves.

107
00:07:07,385 --> 00:07:08,219
And we have no evidence

108
00:07:08,303 --> 00:07:10,096
any of our victims were strangled
with a rope.

109
00:07:10,180 --> 00:07:11,431
But we know they were strangled.

110
00:07:11,514 --> 00:07:13,058
The admin agent was clear:

111
00:07:13,141 --> 00:07:16,186
unless that rope is instrumental
in a specific crime,

112
00:07:16,269 --> 00:07:17,395
we have to let him go.

113
00:07:18,980 --> 00:07:23,151
Christ. Black, early 20s,
dog hair, can't corroborate his alibi.

114
00:07:23,234 --> 00:07:24,194
Alibi for what?

115
00:07:26,780 --> 00:07:27,822
Mr. Williams!

116
00:07:29,741 --> 00:07:31,242
Thank you. You're free to go.

117
00:07:34,412 --> 00:07:36,373
<i>Can I get
an extra hand down here?</i>

118
00:07:38,375 --> 00:07:40,085
You gentlemen have a good night.

119
00:07:40,961 --> 00:07:42,963
They already ran the plate.

120
00:07:51,972 --> 00:07:55,475
Do you believe his story?
3:00 a.m. dry run for a morning meeting?

121
00:07:55,558 --> 00:07:56,977
Not a fucking word.

122
00:07:57,060 --> 00:07:59,604
But it's not about what we believe,
it's about what we can prove.

123
00:08:00,105 --> 00:08:02,065
Let me see the rope. Where is it?

124
00:08:03,024 --> 00:08:04,693
But you just said
to write everything down.

125
00:08:04,776 --> 00:08:05,819
You're shitting me.

126
00:08:05,902 --> 00:08:08,530
- You didn't tell him to bag everything?
- I didn't think I had to.

127
00:08:11,116 --> 00:08:12,450
- Where are you going?
- Home.

128
00:08:12,534 --> 00:08:13,743
It's Memorial Day weekend.

129
00:08:13,994 --> 00:08:16,121
We should be searching that river
for a body.

130
00:08:16,204 --> 00:08:17,414
You're absolutely right.

131
00:08:17,497 --> 00:08:18,873
Let me know what you find.

132
00:08:30,969 --> 00:08:34,764
Unless he weighted it, against his MO,
it would have floated by now.

133
00:08:36,099 --> 00:08:38,101
He wasn't on his way to meet anyone.

134
00:08:38,476 --> 00:08:39,728
There will be a body.

135
00:08:40,145 --> 00:08:41,896
Only one guy heard the splash.

136
00:08:42,397 --> 00:08:44,274
The other three were probably asleep.

137
00:08:44,607 --> 00:08:46,443
Wayne Williams fits
every corner of our profile.

138
00:08:48,695 --> 00:08:50,947
What if we'd heard the same splash,
saw the same car,

139
00:08:51,031 --> 00:08:52,490
but a white guy had gotten out of it?

140
00:08:52,574 --> 00:08:55,076
- But he isn't white, so...
- Everything else being equal,

141
00:08:55,160 --> 00:08:57,620
what's the tipping point
for matching the profile?

142
00:08:57,912 --> 00:08:59,539
Four criteria, five?

143
00:09:00,331 --> 00:09:02,292
What about the six that he didn't fit?

144
00:09:02,667 --> 00:09:04,335
- You don't think he's worth pursuing?
- I do.

145
00:09:04,419 --> 00:09:06,921
But mainly because we finally just got
an answer at that second number.

146
00:09:07,255 --> 00:09:09,340
Nobody named Cheryl
or Johnson ever lived there.

147
00:09:09,424 --> 00:09:11,926
- Because Cheryl Johnson doesn't exist.
- Why say it?

148
00:09:12,010 --> 00:09:13,511
He knows we'll catch him in a lie.

149
00:09:15,638 --> 00:09:16,931
So let's catch him in it.

150
00:09:20,602 --> 00:09:22,103
Is there any breakfast?

151
00:09:22,812 --> 00:09:24,481
No. There's cereal if you want.

152
00:09:28,568 --> 00:09:30,195
That's okay.

153
00:09:33,281 --> 00:09:34,365
Nice day.

154
00:09:35,533 --> 00:09:37,077
Brian's not playing outside?

155
00:09:37,994 --> 00:09:39,579
He plays in his room now.

156
00:09:40,914 --> 00:09:45,460
I tried to make a playdate for him
over the long weekend.

157
00:09:46,252 --> 00:09:47,712
Everyone was out of town.

158
00:09:47,796 --> 00:09:50,840
- Well, maybe they really are, Nance.
- Bill, he's ostracized.

159
00:09:50,924 --> 00:09:52,759
You've seen it. I see it every day.

160
00:09:53,802 --> 00:09:55,720
It's our fault for keeping him here.

161
00:09:56,387 --> 00:09:58,681
We're not moving because of some kids.

162
00:09:58,765 --> 00:10:00,975
This isn't just about other kids.

163
00:10:01,643 --> 00:10:04,229
It's the parents.
They talk behind his back.

164
00:10:04,312 --> 00:10:05,313
His back or yours?

165
00:10:11,319 --> 00:10:14,739
How many times have we moved
because of your work over the years?

166
00:10:15,031 --> 00:10:15,865
Several.

167
00:10:15,949 --> 00:10:18,284
And how many times have we moved
because I've asked to?

168
00:10:18,993 --> 00:10:22,831
I'm asking because I believe
it's the only way to put this behind us.

169
00:10:22,914 --> 00:10:25,250
Honey, I'm only home for a few days.

170
00:10:25,542 --> 00:10:27,335
I just need to get some rest.

171
00:10:27,418 --> 00:10:28,378
Of course.

172
00:10:33,091 --> 00:10:34,759
I'm not saying no.

173
00:10:35,468 --> 00:10:37,554
We'll consider it, I promise.

174
00:10:38,221 --> 00:10:41,808
I just think right now
what's best for Brian is what's familiar,

175
00:10:42,892 --> 00:10:44,102
stability.

176
00:10:45,311 --> 00:10:46,563
Go and rest.

177
00:10:46,646 --> 00:10:48,481
We're taking him to the Y later.

178
00:11:22,015 --> 00:11:25,602
There he is, our Renaissance man.
You mind if we come inside, Wayne?

179
00:11:38,865 --> 00:11:40,325
My mom will be home soon.

180
00:11:40,408 --> 00:11:42,076
I'd appreciate it if y'all were brief.

181
00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:43,453
We wanted to give you the opportunity

182
00:11:43,536 --> 00:11:46,331
to clarify any of your statements
from last night.

183
00:11:46,706 --> 00:11:49,167
It must have been unnerving
to be stopped by the FBI.

184
00:11:49,250 --> 00:11:51,336
Oh, it's cool. Y'all had a job to do.

185
00:11:51,419 --> 00:11:54,172
We finally got through
on one of the two possible numbers

186
00:11:54,255 --> 00:11:55,173
that you gave us.

187
00:11:55,256 --> 00:11:57,383
It belonged to a cosmetics company.

188
00:11:57,467 --> 00:12:00,637
- No Cheryl Johnson ever worked there.
- That was the number she gave.

189
00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:02,639
And you're positive that was her name?

190
00:12:02,722 --> 00:12:04,390
As far as I remember.

191
00:12:04,474 --> 00:12:06,476
But I get folks calling all the time,
pranking me,

192
00:12:06,559 --> 00:12:08,895
so it's possible she may not exist.

193
00:12:08,978 --> 00:12:12,065
You were confident enough
to drive to Smyrna at 3:00 a.m.

194
00:12:12,148 --> 00:12:14,067
with no real address to find her.

195
00:12:14,150 --> 00:12:16,444
Um... gotta track down every lead.

196
00:12:16,903 --> 00:12:18,613
- Y'all understand that.
- So...

197
00:12:19,906 --> 00:12:21,658
tell us about your day yesterday.

198
00:12:24,035 --> 00:12:25,119
Um...

199
00:12:27,872 --> 00:12:28,998
Not much to tell.

200
00:12:29,415 --> 00:12:33,878
I, uh, slept late, had lunch,
played some ball at the rec center.

201
00:12:33,962 --> 00:12:35,171
- Which rec center?
- Ben Hill.

202
00:12:37,173 --> 00:12:38,466
Then I came home.

203
00:12:38,549 --> 00:12:40,551
And that's when my momma
told me a woman called.

204
00:12:40,635 --> 00:12:42,220
So, your mother actually took the call?

205
00:12:42,303 --> 00:12:43,471
Yeah. She took the message.

206
00:12:43,554 --> 00:12:45,390
Because last night you said
your nines look like fours,

207
00:12:45,473 --> 00:12:47,642
so we were under the impression
you took the call.

208
00:12:47,725 --> 00:12:51,521
No. I must have copied it down
from where my mother wrote it.

209
00:12:52,814 --> 00:12:55,191
- What time was that?
- I don't know. Uh...

210
00:12:55,733 --> 00:12:56,567
4:00.

211
00:12:57,610 --> 00:12:58,528
Then what?

212
00:12:58,611 --> 00:13:00,613
Then, I had dinner with my parents

213
00:13:01,030 --> 00:13:03,241
and went to Hotlanta Records
in College Park

214
00:13:03,324 --> 00:13:04,617
to pick up a check I was owed.

215
00:13:05,201 --> 00:13:07,787
Then I went to Sans Souci
to hear some music.

216
00:13:07,870 --> 00:13:09,414
- Sans Souci?
- Lounge.

217
00:13:10,123 --> 00:13:12,000
760 West Peachtree.

218
00:13:12,500 --> 00:13:13,459
I didn't stay long.

219
00:13:13,835 --> 00:13:15,837
Uh, then I went looking
for the place in Smyrna.

220
00:13:15,920 --> 00:13:17,714
And that's when y'all stopped me.

221
00:13:21,676 --> 00:13:23,761
- So, this is your parents' house?
- Yeah.

222
00:13:23,845 --> 00:13:25,722
- And you live here with them?
- Yes, sir.

223
00:13:26,514 --> 00:13:27,765
Surely a young...

224
00:13:28,683 --> 00:13:31,102
good-looking guy like you
would want to have his own apartment?

225
00:13:31,185 --> 00:13:33,855
I put all my money into my work.

226
00:13:33,938 --> 00:13:36,774
Which is what, exactly?
You never told us what you did in music.

227
00:13:55,585 --> 00:13:56,961
- May we keep this?
- Sure.

228
00:13:57,045 --> 00:13:58,379
They're all over town.

229
00:13:58,921 --> 00:14:00,715
So, you spend your time
searching for children?

230
00:14:00,798 --> 00:14:02,175
Searching for talent.

231
00:14:02,258 --> 00:14:04,177
When you find it,
what do you do with this talent?

232
00:14:04,260 --> 00:14:06,346
Usually, I have them record a demo.

233
00:14:06,429 --> 00:14:09,223
- What's in it for you?
- If they're good, I manage them.

234
00:14:09,307 --> 00:14:11,100
And if they're not,
what do you do with them?

235
00:14:12,477 --> 00:14:15,521
- I don't do nothing with 'em.
- Where do you find the talent?

236
00:14:16,356 --> 00:14:19,567
All over. You know, uh, restaurants,
arcades.

237
00:14:19,650 --> 00:14:21,402
Mall parking lots? Swimming pools?

238
00:14:21,944 --> 00:14:23,112
Never know where it's hiding.

239
00:14:23,738 --> 00:14:25,448
I figure, why should it always be
white people

240
00:14:25,531 --> 00:14:27,700
gettin' rich off the talent of brothers?

241
00:14:27,784 --> 00:14:29,619
You make much money from it?

242
00:14:30,620 --> 00:14:32,455
If I did, you'd think I'd be here?

243
00:14:32,538 --> 00:14:34,499
So right now, it's more of a fantasy?

244
00:14:34,582 --> 00:14:36,125
A grind is what it is.

245
00:14:36,209 --> 00:14:39,170
Why children? Such specific ages.

246
00:14:39,253 --> 00:14:41,005
Ever heard of The Jackson Five?

247
00:14:41,756 --> 00:14:43,466
Hmm? That's where the money's at.

248
00:14:44,092 --> 00:14:46,344
Would you happen to have the names
of some of your current clients?

249
00:14:46,427 --> 00:14:47,970
We'd love to speak with them.

250
00:14:48,054 --> 00:14:49,597
I'm in between acts.

251
00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:52,016
That's why I was out
late last night, scouting.

252
00:14:52,100 --> 00:14:53,393
Lookin' for talent.

253
00:14:54,811 --> 00:14:56,562
- What'd you find?
- Nothin'.

254
00:14:58,564 --> 00:14:59,732
Do you like children, Wayne?

255
00:15:02,276 --> 00:15:03,111
How do you mean?

256
00:15:04,487 --> 00:15:05,863
Do you like their company?

257
00:15:06,864 --> 00:15:08,199
I ain't never touched one,

258
00:15:09,075 --> 00:15:11,035
- if that's what you're asking.
- Of course not.

259
00:15:11,119 --> 00:15:12,036
But do you like them?

260
00:15:12,120 --> 00:15:14,414
Do you sympathize
with those that have gone missing?

261
00:15:14,497 --> 00:15:17,583
Yeah. Hell, I ain't much older
than some of 'em.

262
00:15:19,210 --> 00:15:23,423
Why are you knocking on my door anyway?

263
00:15:23,506 --> 00:15:25,633
I mean,
it's... it's black kids out there dying.

264
00:15:26,551 --> 00:15:28,636
Y'all should be rousting the KKK.

265
00:15:28,719 --> 00:15:29,679
Well...

266
00:15:31,055 --> 00:15:34,600
we're finding that these types of killers
rarely cross racial lines.

267
00:15:34,684 --> 00:15:35,977
What type of killer is that?

268
00:15:36,686 --> 00:15:37,812
Serial.

269
00:15:38,271 --> 00:15:39,272
Organized.

270
00:15:39,355 --> 00:15:40,523
Compulsive.

271
00:15:40,606 --> 00:15:41,524
Compulsive?

272
00:15:42,483 --> 00:15:43,317
About what?

273
00:15:43,401 --> 00:15:45,570
Well, without speaking to him,
I can't be certain, but...

274
00:15:46,446 --> 00:15:49,657
I believe he achieves sexual gratification

275
00:15:49,740 --> 00:15:52,660
from choking and dominating his victim.

276
00:15:56,414 --> 00:15:58,374
You said last night
that you don't have a girlfriend,

277
00:15:58,791 --> 00:16:01,669
- is that right, Wayne?
- Yeah. That's right.

278
00:16:03,045 --> 00:16:03,880
Hmm.

279
00:16:07,133 --> 00:16:08,050
Think you'll catch him?

280
00:16:12,138 --> 00:16:13,139
I do.

281
00:16:13,848 --> 00:16:18,227
Well, I wish you luck.

282
00:16:19,020 --> 00:16:22,315
Thank you. That's very kind.

283
00:16:23,774 --> 00:16:25,526
Do you mind if I use your restroom?

284
00:16:25,610 --> 00:16:26,944
Down there, to your left.

285
00:16:45,004 --> 00:16:46,339
I said on the left.

286
00:16:46,422 --> 00:16:48,216
I thought you said you didn't own a dog.

287
00:16:48,299 --> 00:16:50,384
I don't. Sheba's my dad's.

288
00:17:07,068 --> 00:17:09,111
<i>Wayne said he came by that night
to pick up a check.</i>

289
00:17:09,195 --> 00:17:10,905
<i>Do you recall what time that was?</i>

290
00:17:10,988 --> 00:17:12,573
9:00, 9:30.

291
00:17:13,115 --> 00:17:14,784
Do you happen to have an invoice?

292
00:17:15,243 --> 00:17:16,160
Sure.

293
00:17:18,412 --> 00:17:20,414
Wayne says he's in the music business.

294
00:17:23,084 --> 00:17:25,002
Uh, he rents my studio.

295
00:17:26,212 --> 00:17:27,421
Holds auditions here.

296
00:17:32,009 --> 00:17:33,469
- There you go.
- Thank you.

297
00:17:34,053 --> 00:17:36,889
Is he in, uh, something
he not supposed to be in?

298
00:17:37,598 --> 00:17:39,600
We're just following up some statements.

299
00:17:40,560 --> 00:17:42,019
Does Wayne bring talent here?

300
00:17:42,103 --> 00:17:45,273
Oh, he's always in here
with somebody he discovered at the mall,

301
00:17:45,940 --> 00:17:47,149
the next big thing.

302
00:17:47,650 --> 00:17:49,193
Do you have any of his demos?

303
00:17:49,277 --> 00:17:51,862
No. Wayne ain't got no demos.

304
00:17:51,946 --> 00:17:54,407
- Most of the time, they just sit and talk.
- They talk?

305
00:17:54,490 --> 00:17:57,368
I mean, I've seen him in there
with some kid kicked back,

306
00:17:57,451 --> 00:17:59,620
laughing, for like an hour.

307
00:17:59,912 --> 00:18:03,040
But not my business how you use your time.
You know, you're payin' for it.

308
00:18:04,542 --> 00:18:06,836
- What do you charge?
- I charge 50 an hour.

309
00:18:07,461 --> 00:18:09,213
A little discount. He's a good kid.

310
00:18:09,297 --> 00:18:11,549
- And Wayne can afford that?
- Well, it's his daddy's money.

311
00:18:12,300 --> 00:18:15,344
I feel bad for Homer too.
Ain't like he Rockefeller or something.

312
00:18:23,019 --> 00:18:24,604
Do you have any of the talents' names?

313
00:18:24,687 --> 00:18:25,730
Uh-uh.

314
00:18:26,314 --> 00:18:27,898
How old are they usually?

315
00:18:28,065 --> 00:18:31,193
Uh, 14, 15.
He's looking for Michael Jackson.

316
00:18:31,277 --> 00:18:33,946
You said that Wayne was a "good kid."

317
00:18:34,030 --> 00:18:36,782
Yeah. He's polite, pays his bills.

318
00:18:36,866 --> 00:18:38,117
Cleans up after himself.

319
00:18:38,200 --> 00:18:40,161
I mean, he's a...

320
00:18:41,329 --> 00:18:43,039
- different kind of kid.
- Different?

321
00:18:43,456 --> 00:18:44,332
How exactly?

322
00:18:46,500 --> 00:18:49,795
I don't know. I...
I don't wanna get Wayne in no trouble.

323
00:18:50,296 --> 00:18:51,297
Of course not.

324
00:18:51,922 --> 00:18:53,341
He talks himself up.

325
00:18:53,424 --> 00:18:55,551
You know, but that's most folks
that come in here.

326
00:18:55,635 --> 00:18:57,219
Gotta fake it till you make it, right?

327
00:18:58,929 --> 00:19:00,097
Does he have a temper?

328
00:19:00,348 --> 00:19:02,183
Wayne? No. That boy ain't got no temper.

329
00:19:02,266 --> 00:19:05,311
So you never saw any signs
of anger or violence?

330
00:19:05,394 --> 00:19:07,229
Nah, Wayne is a chump.

331
00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:09,148
This is Wayne.

332
00:19:09,231 --> 00:19:13,778
One time he came in here, and my assistant
said he had cuts all up and down his arms.

333
00:19:13,861 --> 00:19:14,695
Right? Nasty.

334
00:19:15,154 --> 00:19:17,698
When she asked him about it,
he said he fell in a bush.

335
00:19:17,782 --> 00:19:19,992
Now, I'm sure he got his ass kicked.

336
00:19:20,534 --> 00:19:22,662
- Wayne ain't no fighter.
- When might that have been?

337
00:19:22,745 --> 00:19:24,705
I don't know. A few weeks ago.

338
00:19:25,247 --> 00:19:27,500
You can ask Charlene.
She'll be in here later.

339
00:19:28,668 --> 00:19:30,503
I'm gonna get back to work,
all right, fellas?

340
00:19:30,586 --> 00:19:31,921
Thank you for your time.

341
00:19:32,004 --> 00:19:32,880
Yep.

342
00:19:40,304 --> 00:19:41,722
That's it. Come on.

343
00:19:54,193 --> 00:19:55,820
How far away is this?

344
00:19:56,362 --> 00:19:58,572
Half mile downstream from Wayne's bridge.

345
00:19:58,656 --> 00:20:01,117
Same spot Jimmy Payne was found
about a month ago.

346
00:20:01,200 --> 00:20:03,202
I checked the victim list
from around the time

347
00:20:03,285 --> 00:20:05,746
Wayne had those supposed scratches
on his arms.

348
00:20:05,955 --> 00:20:07,707
- Terry Pue.
- The one on Sigman Road.

349
00:20:08,749 --> 00:20:11,001
He was known around as a tough kid.
A fighter.

350
00:20:11,877 --> 00:20:13,879
He had lacerations on his body...

351
00:20:14,672 --> 00:20:16,215
as if he'd been in a struggle.

352
00:20:17,508 --> 00:20:18,592
I also found this.

353
00:20:20,219 --> 00:20:24,056
A composite of the man Lubie Geter
was seen talking to before he disappeared.

354
00:20:26,726 --> 00:20:29,103
You want it to feel like your palm.

355
00:20:30,271 --> 00:20:31,313
You feel that?

356
00:20:31,397 --> 00:20:33,357
Now feel the burger.

357
00:20:33,733 --> 00:20:34,859
Does it feel the same?

358
00:20:37,611 --> 00:20:39,447
I think it does. Ready?

359
00:20:43,868 --> 00:20:45,828
Perfect. Wanna try?

360
00:20:50,624 --> 00:20:51,917
Oh, that's okay.

361
00:20:52,501 --> 00:20:54,545
- Five-second rule.
- It's for you.

362
00:20:55,963 --> 00:20:56,964
It's Holden.

363
00:21:12,062 --> 00:21:13,063
It better be good.

364
00:21:13,898 --> 00:21:14,732
We found the body.

365
00:21:15,274 --> 00:21:17,276
- At the bridge?
<i>- Downstream.</i>

366
00:21:17,359 --> 00:21:18,611
- How far?
<i>- Pretty close.</i>

367
00:21:18,694 --> 00:21:20,029
We have a meeting tomorrow with the DA

368
00:21:20,112 --> 00:21:21,697
to talk surveillance
and warrants for Wayne Williams.

369
00:21:21,781 --> 00:21:23,699
<i>He wants to hear
from all the agents at the scene.</i>

370
00:21:23,783 --> 00:21:24,742
We have enough for that?

371
00:21:24,825 --> 00:21:28,245
<i>Cheryl Johnson turned out to be a lie.
That gives us a false exculpatory.</i>

372
00:21:28,329 --> 00:21:31,499
And get this: we've always wondered
how he got them in the car.

373
00:21:31,916 --> 00:21:32,958
Flyers.

374
00:21:33,042 --> 00:21:33,918
<i>Flyers?</i>

375
00:21:34,001 --> 00:21:37,213
Williams hands out flyers to kids,
promising a record contract

376
00:21:37,296 --> 00:21:39,298
<i>- if they'll go with him to make a demo.</i>
- Oh.

377
00:21:39,381 --> 00:21:40,591
<i>That's how he does it.</i>

378
00:21:41,300 --> 00:21:44,345
Bill... this is him.

379
00:21:44,595 --> 00:21:45,429
<i>I'm on my way.</i>

380
00:21:51,852 --> 00:21:52,937
We may have him.

381
00:21:54,104 --> 00:21:55,064
You tell him.

382
00:21:57,316 --> 00:21:58,234
I won't.

383
00:22:10,955 --> 00:22:12,414
<i>He'd been deceased
two to three days,</i>

384
00:22:12,498 --> 00:22:14,458
<i>which does not rule Williams out
as a suspect.</i>

385
00:22:14,542 --> 00:22:17,211
Cause of death is asphyxiation,
most likely by a choke hold.

386
00:22:17,878 --> 00:22:19,213
We found carpet fibers on the body

387
00:22:19,296 --> 00:22:21,215
consistent with what we've found
on other victims.

388
00:22:21,298 --> 00:22:24,385
The fibers we recovered are green
and a very unusual shape.

389
00:22:24,718 --> 00:22:27,805
- I saw green carpet in Williams' home.
- But you don't know if it's a match.

390
00:22:28,138 --> 00:22:29,974
No, sir.
There were dog hairs on the victim.

391
00:22:30,057 --> 00:22:32,017
I found dog hairs
in the suspect's vehicle,

392
00:22:32,101 --> 00:22:35,145
- and his family owns a dog.
- I own a dog, Agent.

393
00:22:35,813 --> 00:22:37,648
Besides that, there was
a knotted nylon rope,

394
00:22:37,731 --> 00:22:40,109
- approximately 24 inches...
- Now that's material.

395
00:22:40,192 --> 00:22:41,861
Does it match wounds on any victim?

396
00:22:42,486 --> 00:22:44,572
It remained in the vehicle
and has since...

397
00:22:46,323 --> 00:22:48,200
- It can't be accounted for.
- So...

398
00:22:48,868 --> 00:22:50,953
we confiscated no physical evidence.

399
00:22:51,036 --> 00:22:52,705
Even though he gave permission
to search his vehicle.

400
00:22:52,955 --> 00:22:55,040
That's correct, sir.
At the time, we had no body

401
00:22:55,457 --> 00:22:58,002
and, therefore, no cause to believe
a crime had been committed.

402
00:22:58,085 --> 00:22:59,461
- Now, you have a body.
- Yes, sir.

403
00:22:59,545 --> 00:23:02,631
Which you can't physically connect
to the suspect or his vehicle.

404
00:23:02,965 --> 00:23:06,343
And you have a splash heard
by a probably sleeping recruit,

405
00:23:06,427 --> 00:23:08,929
which you can't definitively connect
to the body.

406
00:23:09,305 --> 00:23:11,515
- Who's the victim?
- Nathaniel Cater.

407
00:23:12,099 --> 00:23:15,144
Twenty-seven, 150 pounds, six foot one.

408
00:23:15,769 --> 00:23:17,438
Priors for trespass
and attempted burglary.

409
00:23:17,521 --> 00:23:19,899
You want warrants
for a multiple child murderer

410
00:23:19,982 --> 00:23:21,358
based on the death of an adult?

411
00:23:21,442 --> 00:23:24,737
Cater was a drunk and a hustler.
He'd be easy prey.

412
00:23:26,030 --> 00:23:27,907
Besides driving over a bridge

413
00:23:28,198 --> 00:23:31,410
at the same general time
that this victim was in the Chattahoochee,

414
00:23:31,577 --> 00:23:33,954
you have no physical connection

415
00:23:34,038 --> 00:23:36,165
between the deceased and your suspect.

416
00:23:36,916 --> 00:23:38,626
I can't issue warrants based on that.

417
00:23:38,709 --> 00:23:41,754
Sir, Williams fits the type of perpetrator
we've been looking for.

418
00:23:41,837 --> 00:23:42,922
He had a prior.

419
00:23:43,339 --> 00:23:45,799
He was stopped
for impersonating a police officer

420
00:23:45,883 --> 00:23:47,927
- and had a scanner in his car.
- A misdemeanor.

421
00:23:48,844 --> 00:23:52,222
We don't issue warrants based on
the "type" of person someone is.

422
00:23:53,265 --> 00:23:54,975
And the last warrants I obtained for you

423
00:23:55,059 --> 00:23:58,771
captured a man whose only sin
was pleasuring himself in the woods.

424
00:23:58,854 --> 00:24:00,606
A public relations debacle.

425
00:24:00,689 --> 00:24:03,442
- We were wrong for even bringing him in.
- Yes, you were.

426
00:24:04,276 --> 00:24:08,656
Sir, we're not asking to search
his person and property yet.

427
00:24:09,573 --> 00:24:12,493
We're requesting 24-hour surveillance
and wiretaps.

428
00:24:12,576 --> 00:24:15,746
The last time the FBI
wiretapped a black man in Georgia,

429
00:24:15,829 --> 00:24:16,830
it was not well-received.

430
00:24:16,914 --> 00:24:19,375
With all respect, sir,
Wayne Williams is no Dr. King.

431
00:24:19,458 --> 00:24:21,961
If we're allowed surveillance,
I'm confident we'll find evidence

432
00:24:22,044 --> 00:24:24,296
- to validate your decision.
- I'll consider it...

433
00:24:25,005 --> 00:24:26,632
with what's left of my weekend.

434
00:24:35,641 --> 00:24:37,977
<i>Today at city hall,
community activists met</i>

435
00:24:38,060 --> 00:24:39,311
<i>with city planners...</i>

436
00:24:40,312 --> 00:24:43,023
Don't include the rope.
If he approves this thing,

437
00:24:43,107 --> 00:24:45,109
the judge will shoot it down
for the same reasons.

438
00:24:45,192 --> 00:24:46,026
Okay.

439
00:24:46,568 --> 00:24:48,028
That isn't very optimistic.

440
00:24:49,905 --> 00:24:52,574
- Odds on Slaton for the warrant?
- Fifty-fifty.

441
00:24:53,283 --> 00:24:55,494
- He either will or he won't.
- I say 30/70.

442
00:24:55,577 --> 00:24:57,788
We have a suspect
in the vicinity of the body.

443
00:24:57,871 --> 00:24:58,706
Vicinity.

444
00:24:58,789 --> 00:25:01,333
He's right, we have
no material connection to that body.

445
00:25:01,417 --> 00:25:03,168
Guys, it's an election year.

446
00:25:03,252 --> 00:25:05,045
It's about public opinion
as much as about evidence.

447
00:25:05,129 --> 00:25:05,963
Can you turn that up?

448
00:25:06,046 --> 00:25:09,466
<i>...authorities to bring an end
to the child murders gripping Atlanta.</i>

449
00:25:09,550 --> 00:25:13,512
<i>A certain mood exists in America,
encouraged by our leaders,</i>

450
00:25:13,595 --> 00:25:17,474
<i>that it is all right
to do anything to black people.</i>

451
00:25:18,183 --> 00:25:19,476
<i>Across the country,</i>

452
00:25:19,893 --> 00:25:23,772
<i>our children are being killed,
and our future is being wiped out.</i>

453
00:25:23,856 --> 00:25:25,649
<i>That is why I have come...</i>

454
00:25:25,733 --> 00:25:27,443
<i>...to our nation's capital,</i>

455
00:25:27,985 --> 00:25:28,819
<i>to say, "No."</i>

456
00:25:28,902 --> 00:25:29,903
Special Agent Ford.

<i>To the value of a child's life
being judged by the color of their skin.</i>

458
00:25:34,283 --> 00:25:35,451
Thank you, sir.

459
00:25:36,160 --> 00:25:39,705
Slaton. "In light of the crisis situation
in Atlanta, an exception has been made."

460
00:25:39,788 --> 00:25:43,792
<i>...while they continue to bury

461
00:27:01,787 --> 00:27:03,080
<i>Shit.</i>

462
00:27:06,834 --> 00:27:07,835
Someone's up.

463
00:27:09,545 --> 00:27:10,462
I lost it.

464
00:27:11,755 --> 00:27:12,756
What?

465
00:27:13,924 --> 00:27:15,884
<i>I... I dropped the fucking thing.</i>

466
00:27:23,684 --> 00:27:26,687
Hold on. Found it.

467
00:27:27,980 --> 00:27:29,690
Hurry up.

468
00:27:35,821 --> 00:27:37,030
They're on the move.

469
00:27:38,073 --> 00:27:39,741
<i>I need more time.</i>

470
00:27:44,288 --> 00:27:45,747
<i>Fuck it. Get out now.</i>

471
00:27:45,831 --> 00:27:47,082
Go.

472
00:28:07,394 --> 00:28:09,271
- Who the hell is up at this hour?
- Did you do it?

473
00:28:10,480 --> 00:28:13,734
We can track him.
Just can't listen to him.

474
00:28:25,537 --> 00:28:26,371
Thanks.

475
00:28:33,503 --> 00:28:36,798
Says here, Wayne once worked
for the Department of Public Safety.

476
00:28:37,132 --> 00:28:40,260
Scene photographer
for arson investigations.

477
00:28:40,969 --> 00:28:43,472
- Huh.
- He could still have press credentials.

478
00:28:46,350 --> 00:28:49,228
We should see if he photographed
any of our crime scenes.

479
00:29:00,072 --> 00:29:01,907
<i>All right,
he's on the move. We're trailing.</i>

480
00:29:06,161 --> 00:29:07,329
<i>Copy that.</i>

481
00:29:09,498 --> 00:29:11,875
<i>The package is traveling west
on Glenn. We've got eyes.</i>

482
00:29:11,959 --> 00:29:13,210
All cars hang back.

483
00:29:13,627 --> 00:29:14,878
<i>Roger, Model T.</i>

484
00:29:15,212 --> 00:29:18,465
<i>Tomcat, you guys stay tight behind me.
Eagle, we're on the move west.</i>

485
00:29:18,840 --> 00:29:20,384
<i>Roger. Circling back.</i>

486
00:29:20,467 --> 00:29:21,760
Do not drop too low.

487
00:29:23,178 --> 00:29:25,180
Six cars and a plane feels like overkill.

488
00:29:25,264 --> 00:29:26,974
I'm more worried
about attracting attention

489
00:29:27,057 --> 00:29:28,934
- than losing Wayne.
- We're good.

490
00:29:29,643 --> 00:29:32,521
There's no way he'd hand out flyers
to kids if he knew we were watching.

491
00:29:32,604 --> 00:29:34,147
I'm not so sure. He has...

492
00:29:35,774 --> 00:29:36,817
hubris.

493
00:29:37,359 --> 00:29:38,860
But other things don't add up.

494
00:29:38,944 --> 00:29:39,820
Like what?

495
00:29:40,279 --> 00:29:41,363
Family background.

496
00:29:42,447 --> 00:29:43,699
No absent father.

497
00:29:44,700 --> 00:29:47,411
No signs of a domineering
or abusive mother.

498
00:29:48,245 --> 00:29:50,664
I met an Irishman once
who only drank milk.

499
00:29:53,542 --> 00:29:54,668
Left turn on...

500
00:29:56,378 --> 00:29:58,505
Ira Street, heading south.

501
00:29:59,172 --> 00:30:00,132
<i>Roger.</i>

502
00:30:04,594 --> 00:30:06,513
And he's making another quick left,

503
00:30:06,596 --> 00:30:08,682
- east on Gordon.
<i>- Roger. East on Gordon.</i>

504
00:30:08,765 --> 00:30:11,184
We're supposed to be finding
patterns, not anomalies.

505
00:30:12,853 --> 00:30:14,896
That's a lot of cars making that turn.

506
00:30:15,731 --> 00:30:17,691
We've got eyes on the package.

507
00:30:17,774 --> 00:30:19,067
Stay back.

508
00:30:19,359 --> 00:30:21,320
- Jesus, it's like the Macy's Day Parade.
<i>- Roger.</i>

509
00:30:29,703 --> 00:30:32,998
- Do not run the light. We've got him.
- Damn it.

510
00:30:36,251 --> 00:30:37,836
<i>Don't worry about it.
We're gonna catch up.</i>

511
00:30:38,420 --> 00:30:41,048
Do you think that was intentional?

512
00:30:41,131 --> 00:30:43,967
<i>Uh, yeah, we were about
three car lengths behind, but...</i>

513
00:30:44,051 --> 00:30:45,344
I can't take that turn.

514
00:30:45,427 --> 00:30:46,470
He'll make us.

515
00:30:47,137 --> 00:30:50,098
Package is southbound on Windsor.

516
00:30:50,849 --> 00:30:52,351
Now signaling eastbound.

517
00:30:52,726 --> 00:30:54,144
We will be parallel.

518
00:30:57,105 --> 00:30:58,648
Eagle, you got eyes?

519
00:30:59,232 --> 00:31:00,567
<i>Model T, turn south,</i>

520
00:31:00,650 --> 00:31:02,402
<i>- pick him up at Pryor and Bass.</i>
- Roger.

521
00:31:06,615 --> 00:31:07,949
What is Model T?

522
00:31:10,702 --> 00:31:12,788
It's a code name for Ford.

523
00:31:15,082 --> 00:31:17,250
How about I call you Tin Lizzie?

524
00:31:29,388 --> 00:31:32,057
Package is stopped at the southeast corner
of Formwalt and Bass.

525
00:31:32,140 --> 00:31:34,059
Do not approach. Stay off the block.

526
00:31:34,142 --> 00:31:35,936
We'll advise when he's in motion.

527
00:31:36,937 --> 00:31:40,023
- What do we see as motive?
- I still think it's sexual.

528
00:31:40,857 --> 00:31:42,818
Despite him having no history of violence

529
00:31:42,901 --> 00:31:45,070
and there being no evidence
of sexual violation.

530
00:31:45,153 --> 00:31:46,154
Yes.

531
00:31:46,238 --> 00:31:48,740
BTK's victims
were not sexually violated either.

532
00:31:49,116 --> 00:31:51,868
There was no penetration,
but we know he gets off on it.

533
00:31:53,245 --> 00:31:55,914
- Maybe Wayne's like that.
- What if it's shame?

534
00:31:55,997 --> 00:31:58,291
Shame? What makes you say that?

535
00:31:58,375 --> 00:32:02,295
He strangles his victims
from behind, so they can't see him,

536
00:32:02,754 --> 00:32:04,005
can't judge him.

537
00:32:05,924 --> 00:32:09,511
The parents seem nurturing,
but also conservative.

538
00:32:09,845 --> 00:32:12,722
Maybe not the kind
who'd be very accepting of a gay son.

539
00:32:13,640 --> 00:32:17,018
What if he hates himself so much,
and what he is,

540
00:32:18,103 --> 00:32:19,479
that he takes it out on these kids?

541
00:32:20,397 --> 00:32:23,191
Maybe specifically
kids who he thinks are hustlers.

542
00:32:23,275 --> 00:32:25,735
I don't get the sense
that he hates himself at all.

543
00:32:25,819 --> 00:32:28,280
I think he's a narcissist
who considers himself smarter

544
00:32:28,363 --> 00:32:30,240
than every other person in the room.

545
00:32:30,907 --> 00:32:31,908
You know the type.

546
00:32:33,201 --> 00:32:35,078
<i>He's heading out now.</i>

547
00:32:36,455 --> 00:32:39,583
Package moving east on Bass,
he's gonna drive right past us.

548
00:32:49,426 --> 00:32:51,428
- What's he doing?
- What the fuck?

549
00:33:06,443 --> 00:33:07,986
Thought y'all might be hungry.

550
00:33:13,742 --> 00:33:15,410
<i>Scorpion,
he handed them something.</i>

551
00:33:15,494 --> 00:33:17,162
<i>I... I don't know what it is.</i>

552
00:33:24,002 --> 00:33:25,295
I think we've been made.

553
00:33:25,962 --> 00:33:27,422
<i>I bet you he got the $2.99 special.</i>

554
00:33:27,506 --> 00:33:30,467
<i>You can't beat that.
You get two fried chicken and fries.</i>

555
00:33:35,096 --> 00:33:37,557
<i>Uh, yeah, he's reentered the vehicle</i>

556
00:33:37,641 --> 00:33:40,018
<i>and, uh, is en route.</i>

557
00:33:40,101 --> 00:33:41,895
<i>You should have eyes on him
in about 30 seconds.</i>

558
00:33:41,978 --> 00:33:42,979
Ten-four.

559
00:33:49,611 --> 00:33:52,155
Guess who photographed
the Sigman Road crime scene?

560
00:33:52,531 --> 00:33:54,157
Who is Wayne B. Williams?

561
00:33:56,785 --> 00:33:58,995
Now that we're blown,
this seems like a waste of time.

562
00:33:59,079 --> 00:34:02,749
Then we bumper-lock him.
People under pressure make mistakes.

563
00:34:02,832 --> 00:34:05,794
And if a body turns up while we're on him,
we rule him out.

564
00:34:06,878 --> 00:34:08,255
Whose car is this?

565
00:34:09,464 --> 00:34:10,465
This your car?

566
00:34:10,549 --> 00:34:12,968
- No, but I'd be happy to move it for you.
- And I'm late for work.

567
00:34:13,051 --> 00:34:16,263
Y'all blocking the whole neighborhood.
Fucking Wayne, man.

568
00:34:16,346 --> 00:34:18,431
- How do you know it was about Wayne?
- Of course it's about Wayne.

569
00:34:18,515 --> 00:34:20,225
He always up to some bullshit.

570
00:34:20,308 --> 00:34:23,228
Fucking FCC come out here one time,
shut down his radio station.

571
00:34:23,311 --> 00:34:25,814
Coming and going all hours.
You gonna move it?

572
00:34:25,897 --> 00:34:27,857
- Wayne keeps his neighbors up?
- Spoiled rotten.

573
00:34:27,941 --> 00:34:29,943
That's his real goddamn problem. I work.

574
00:34:30,026 --> 00:34:31,820
Something he don't know shit about.

575
00:34:31,903 --> 00:34:34,281
Keeping me awake fucking burning trash.

576
00:34:35,657 --> 00:34:38,702
- You saw Wayne burning garbage?
- Five o'clock in the morning.

577
00:34:38,994 --> 00:34:41,496
- You sure it was garbage?
- I don't know. It was on fire.

578
00:34:41,580 --> 00:34:43,707
- When was this?
- Thursday morning.

579
00:34:44,165 --> 00:34:45,292
Thursday? You're certain?

580
00:34:45,375 --> 00:34:47,544
I work night shift Wednesdays. You mind?

581
00:34:51,715 --> 00:34:53,091
<i>You don't know what he was burnin'.</i>

582
00:34:53,466 --> 00:34:55,594
You want a warrant,
bring me physical evidence.

583
00:34:55,677 --> 00:34:56,511
If we wait any longer,

584
00:34:56,595 --> 00:34:58,471
all your physical evidence will go up
in smoke.

585
00:34:58,555 --> 00:35:01,600
Let us search for fibers and question him.
Wayne is fascinated by these crimes.

586
00:35:01,683 --> 00:35:02,892
If we bring him in, he'll talk to us.

587
00:35:02,976 --> 00:35:05,103
If he doesn't, we let him out the back,
no one is the wiser.

588
00:35:05,186 --> 00:35:06,646
No harm, no foul.

589
00:35:06,730 --> 00:35:10,442
Sir, I appreciate the extreme pressure
you're under from Mayor Jackson

590
00:35:10,525 --> 00:35:13,361
- and your constituents to end this.
- Oh, you do, do you?

591
00:35:22,078 --> 00:35:24,331
We need fibers from the car,
the whole house.

592
00:35:24,748 --> 00:35:26,666
Especially the green carpet
in the living room.

593
00:35:26,750 --> 00:35:27,709
Yes, sir.

594
00:35:35,300 --> 00:35:36,301
Shit.

595
00:35:48,563 --> 00:35:50,148
I want hair from that dog.

596
00:35:58,740 --> 00:35:59,866
Got anything?

597
00:36:08,458 --> 00:36:09,459
Peterson.

598
00:36:09,709 --> 00:36:11,961
It's not much, but it is green.

599
00:36:51,334 --> 00:36:53,920
We got fibers from his bedroom
that could be a match.

600
00:36:54,212 --> 00:36:56,089
Won't know until the labs come back.

601
00:36:56,548 --> 00:36:59,384
They're still working on the car.
How's he been?

602
00:36:59,467 --> 00:37:01,720
I think plucking his pubes
has him rattled.

603
00:37:01,803 --> 00:37:03,221
But he's still so arrogant:

604
00:37:03,513 --> 00:37:06,224
declined a lawyer
and consented to a polygraph.

605
00:37:06,307 --> 00:37:07,434
Arrogant and prepared.

606
00:37:08,977 --> 00:37:11,396
Find one called <i>How to Abduct</i>
<i>and Murder Young Boys,</i>

607
00:37:11,730 --> 00:37:12,981
and we can all go home.

608
00:37:13,523 --> 00:37:14,607
You ready?

609
00:37:40,091 --> 00:37:40,925
Commissioner Brown.

610
00:37:41,009 --> 00:37:42,218
- Agent.
- DA Slaton.

611
00:37:43,303 --> 00:37:45,597
<i>Y'all have the clothes off my back.</i>

612
00:37:45,847 --> 00:37:47,932
What else can I do for you?

613
00:37:48,475 --> 00:37:51,853
I'd like to talk about May 21st.

614
00:37:52,270 --> 00:37:54,898
Could you talk us through your day
up to the Jackson Parkway Bridge?

615
00:37:54,981 --> 00:37:56,941
I already told you, twice.

616
00:37:57,942 --> 00:37:59,360
We'd like to hear it again.

617
00:38:00,987 --> 00:38:03,782
I played ball, then I went home.

618
00:38:04,407 --> 00:38:07,076
- And then what?
- My momma said a lady called.

619
00:38:07,160 --> 00:38:08,536
- Cheryl Johnson.
- Yeah.

620
00:38:08,620 --> 00:38:12,081
But like I said, I never spoke with her,
so she may have been a prank call.

621
00:38:12,165 --> 00:38:14,709
After you got the message
from your mom, what then?

622
00:38:14,793 --> 00:38:17,712
Uh... I ate dinner. I worked some.

623
00:38:18,254 --> 00:38:19,088
That's it.

624
00:38:19,172 --> 00:38:22,175
You told us before you picked up a check
at Hotlanta Records.

625
00:38:22,592 --> 00:38:25,261
That's right.
Then I went looking for Ms. Johnson.

626
00:38:26,554 --> 00:38:27,931
What about the Sans Souci Lounge?

627
00:38:29,432 --> 00:38:31,976
You told me after Hotlanta
you went to the Sans Souci.

628
00:38:33,812 --> 00:38:35,563
Yeah, I did.

629
00:38:35,647 --> 00:38:37,857
<i>We checked, and no one remembers you.</i>

630
00:38:37,941 --> 00:38:39,400
<i>Were you there or not?</i>

631
00:38:39,484 --> 00:38:41,027
<i>I was, but not for long.</i>

632
00:38:41,110 --> 00:38:42,445
<i>So you just lied to us?</i>

633
00:38:42,529 --> 00:38:43,780
Or you lied before?

634
00:38:43,863 --> 00:38:45,448
I wasn't lying. People forget things.

635
00:38:45,532 --> 00:38:47,951
I'd be real careful not to forget things,
Wayne,

636
00:38:48,243 --> 00:38:49,160
for your sake.

637
00:38:49,869 --> 00:38:51,496
So that brings us to the bridge.

638
00:38:52,580 --> 00:38:54,374
What did you do after you left us?

639
00:38:54,999 --> 00:38:56,167
Drove home.

640
00:38:56,251 --> 00:38:58,253
You didn't continue looking
for Cheryl Johnson?

641
00:38:58,336 --> 00:39:00,255
I thought that was
the whole reason for going out.

642
00:39:00,338 --> 00:39:02,799
I guess being questioned
by feds spooked me a little.

643
00:39:02,882 --> 00:39:05,385
<i>Did you happen to do any barbecuing
when you got home?</i>

644
00:39:05,468 --> 00:39:06,302
<i>Why would I?</i>

645
00:39:06,386 --> 00:39:07,971
<i>We heard you were burning things
late that night.</i>

646
00:39:08,388 --> 00:39:09,264
Not me.

647
00:39:10,306 --> 00:39:12,183
- I went to bed.
- You didn't clean your car?

648
00:39:12,267 --> 00:39:15,103
When we visited the next morning,
your car was very tidy.

649
00:39:15,186 --> 00:39:17,188
No rope, no clothes.

650
00:39:17,522 --> 00:39:19,440
- Um, I guess my father must've...
- Do you happen to know

651
00:39:19,524 --> 00:39:20,817
where that rope is?

652
00:39:21,776 --> 00:39:23,987
Your father's owned a lot of cars
over the years.

653
00:39:24,904 --> 00:39:28,116
Is it true
he owned a blue 1978 Plymouth Fury?

654
00:39:28,783 --> 00:39:29,868
That a crime?

655
00:39:29,951 --> 00:39:32,954
You know who else drives
1978 Plymouth Furies?

656
00:39:34,247 --> 00:39:35,665
Atlanta PD.

657
00:39:35,748 --> 00:39:38,585
- So...?
- So that would make it pretty convincing,

658
00:39:38,668 --> 00:39:41,462
for a guy who likes
to impersonate police officers,

659
00:39:41,546 --> 00:39:42,755
to lure a kid into his car.

660
00:39:43,214 --> 00:39:44,340
I never did that.

661
00:39:44,424 --> 00:39:46,092
You did impersonate an officer.

662
00:39:46,426 --> 00:39:48,553
I carry a scanner for my photography work

663
00:39:48,636 --> 00:39:50,972
so that I can get to the scene
before other stringers.

664
00:39:51,055 --> 00:39:52,098
What interests me...

665
00:39:52,682 --> 00:39:54,934
is they also found a police light
in your car.

666
00:39:55,018 --> 00:39:57,312
It helps me get access.
Sometimes you gotta hustle a little.

667
00:39:57,604 --> 00:40:03,318
But maybe, if you wanted to intimidate
or gain the confidence of a stranger,

668
00:40:03,943 --> 00:40:05,820
putting a bubble light
on your car might do that.

669
00:40:06,029 --> 00:40:08,072
No. No, I don't do that.

670
00:40:08,156 --> 00:40:11,701
But you know who might? A cop.
Kids'll go off with a real cop.

671
00:40:12,160 --> 00:40:13,411
You checkin' into them?

672
00:40:18,541 --> 00:40:22,086
We have a witness who saw Jo-Jo Bell
get into a white station wagon

673
00:40:22,170 --> 00:40:24,047
on the afternoon of March 2nd.

674
00:40:24,714 --> 00:40:28,343
The description of the driver was a match
for a man seen talking to Lubie Geter

675
00:40:28,426 --> 00:40:29,761
the day he disappeared.

676
00:40:34,766 --> 00:40:35,725
He look familiar to you?

677
00:40:38,686 --> 00:40:40,355
What about...

678
00:40:42,023 --> 00:40:43,149
...Patrick Rogers?

679
00:40:43,524 --> 00:40:46,069
He loved music.
Wanted to make it as a singer.

680
00:40:47,320 --> 00:40:50,114
You ever hand him a flyer,
invite him to your studio?

681
00:40:50,573 --> 00:40:53,326
Uh-uh.
I don't know no Patrick.

682
00:40:53,701 --> 00:40:57,288
He went by "Pat-Man."
Wrote a song called "Runnin' Girl."

683
00:40:57,830 --> 00:40:59,248
Maybe you remember now.

684
00:40:59,332 --> 00:41:00,333
No.

685
00:41:01,709 --> 00:41:03,544
I don't know. I meet kids every day.

686
00:41:03,878 --> 00:41:05,171
That don't mean I killed nobody.

687
00:41:05,254 --> 00:41:09,342
You ever hand out flyers
at... Moreland Plaza Shopping Center?

688
00:41:09,425 --> 00:41:10,259
Sometimes.

689
00:41:10,343 --> 00:41:12,887
That's where Aaron Jackson
and Patrick both carried groceries.

690
00:41:12,971 --> 00:41:15,890
And funny thing, they knew kids
from other parking lots:

691
00:41:16,265 --> 00:41:18,184
Lubie Geter, Charles Stephens.

692
00:41:18,267 --> 00:41:20,269
They worked the Lakewood Shopping Plaza.

693
00:41:20,979 --> 00:41:22,271
<i>Ever go there, Wayne?</i>

694
00:41:22,522 --> 00:41:24,107
<i>Me and a thousand other people.</i>

695
00:41:24,190 --> 00:41:25,817
<i>But you were working, right?</i>

696
00:41:26,693 --> 00:41:30,279
Handing out these flyers
to kids trying to make a buck.

697
00:41:30,363 --> 00:41:34,450
The bottom line is, nobody has ever
seen Wayne Williams strike another person,

698
00:41:34,534 --> 00:41:36,828
strangle another person, or hurt anybody,

699
00:41:36,911 --> 00:41:37,829
because I haven't.

700
00:41:39,706 --> 00:41:41,374
How did you know Nathaniel Cater?

701
00:41:41,874 --> 00:41:43,626
I don't know who that is.

702
00:41:44,168 --> 00:41:46,546
Cater's body was dragged
from the Chattahoochee River

703
00:41:47,755 --> 00:41:49,632
just downstream from where we stopped you.

704
00:41:53,094 --> 00:41:55,680
- That doesn't bother you?
- Why would it? I don't know him.

705
00:41:55,763 --> 00:41:59,267
- You've never met Nathaniel Cater?
- You asking if I killed him?

706
00:41:59,350 --> 00:42:01,019
Look at me, I'm five-seven, man.

707
00:42:01,102 --> 00:42:02,895
How the hell am I gonna kill a grown man,

708
00:42:02,979 --> 00:42:05,356
drag him out of my car,
and throw him off of a bridge?

709
00:42:05,440 --> 00:42:08,609
Toxicology reports suggest
Cater was intoxicated at the time.

710
00:42:09,068 --> 00:42:10,361
Much easier to kill a drunk man.

711
00:42:10,445 --> 00:42:12,822
The body showed signs
of strangulation

712
00:42:12,905 --> 00:42:14,657
but no vertebral damage.

713
00:42:15,825 --> 00:42:18,202
So maybe the killer
wasn't particularly strong...

714
00:42:18,578 --> 00:42:19,787
or couldn't follow through.

715
00:42:20,705 --> 00:42:22,331
It's hard to strangle someone.

716
00:42:22,749 --> 00:42:25,168
When you were choking Cater,
did you panic?

717
00:42:27,378 --> 00:42:29,630
- No.
- No, you didn't panic?

718
00:42:29,714 --> 00:42:31,591
No, I didn't kill nobody.

719
00:42:33,176 --> 00:42:36,262
Cater hustled
at some of the gay clubs downtown.

720
00:42:36,345 --> 00:42:37,472
He your boyfriend?

721
00:42:39,265 --> 00:42:40,808
I am not homosexual.

722
00:42:43,186 --> 00:42:47,565
Know what I call a child talent scout
who makes no music and no money, Wayne?

723
00:42:48,733 --> 00:42:49,817
A fuckin' pedophile.

724
00:42:56,574 --> 00:42:57,992
Let's go further back.

725
00:43:00,953 --> 00:43:03,581
- Where were you May 11th?
- I don't know.

726
00:43:03,664 --> 00:43:04,624
Think.

727
00:43:05,625 --> 00:43:07,126
I guess I was at home.

728
00:43:07,210 --> 00:43:08,669
- Was anybody with you?
- No.

729
00:43:08,753 --> 00:43:09,879
So on May 11th,

730
00:43:09,962 --> 00:43:12,924
when William Barrett was being
strangled to death, you were home alone.

731
00:43:16,886 --> 00:43:19,722
April 22nd:
Jimmy Ray Payne went out to sell coins.

732
00:43:19,806 --> 00:43:22,767
His body was found in the Chattahoochee
not far from where we met.

733
00:43:22,850 --> 00:43:24,477
Where were you on April 22nd?

734
00:43:24,560 --> 00:43:25,812
Is that a Wednesday?

735
00:43:25,978 --> 00:43:29,524
- Uh... guess I was out.
- Out where?

736
00:43:29,607 --> 00:43:31,317
Working. Driving.

737
00:43:31,400 --> 00:43:33,319
- Was anyone with you?
- I doubt it.

738
00:43:33,402 --> 00:43:34,612
Okay, moving on.

739
00:43:34,987 --> 00:43:37,740
March 30th: Larry Rogers went missing.

740
00:43:37,824 --> 00:43:39,700
He was found a week later, strangled.

741
00:43:39,784 --> 00:43:42,370
On his body, we found carpet fibers
and dog hair.

742
00:43:43,704 --> 00:43:45,706
We're taking fiber samples
from your home right now

743
00:43:45,790 --> 00:43:47,416
and hair samples from Sheba.

744
00:43:47,500 --> 00:43:48,835
Anything you want to tell us?

745
00:43:50,336 --> 00:43:52,588
Where were you
on the afternoon of March 30th, Wayne?

746
00:43:53,256 --> 00:43:55,883
<i>And if it helps you remember,
it was raining.</i>

747
00:43:56,342 --> 00:43:59,178
<i>If it's raining, uh, probably watchin' TV.</i>

748
00:43:59,387 --> 00:44:01,097
Or maybe I'm playin' solitaire.

749
00:44:01,180 --> 00:44:02,640
Can anyone corroborate that?

750
00:44:03,933 --> 00:44:05,476
Corroborate solitaire?

751
00:44:06,978 --> 00:44:09,730
- March 20th, Eddie Duncan...
- We gonna do this for all of 'em?

752
00:44:09,814 --> 00:44:11,774
Unless there's something else
you'd like to share?

753
00:44:13,860 --> 00:44:16,571
Y'all think
Wayne Williams murdered all those kids?

754
00:44:17,029 --> 00:44:17,864
Prove it.

755
00:44:18,281 --> 00:44:20,032
Or I think I'll be going home.

756
00:44:20,825 --> 00:44:22,243
<i>It's a murder charge, gentlemen,</i>

757
00:44:22,326 --> 00:44:25,830
and you can't conclusively tie him
to a single victim, whether alive or dead.

758
00:44:25,913 --> 00:44:28,708
The only thing you've got
is a possible fiber match,

759
00:44:28,791 --> 00:44:30,751
which no grand jury
in Georgia is gonna consider

760
00:44:30,835 --> 00:44:32,211
more than circumstantial, at best.

761
00:44:32,295 --> 00:44:34,463
- That's not enough to arrest him.
- He had no alibi.

762
00:44:34,547 --> 00:44:37,633
We went through 28 dates,
not a single verifiable alibi.

763
00:44:37,717 --> 00:44:41,345
Who can remember what they were doing
two weeks ago, much less 14 months?

764
00:44:41,721 --> 00:44:45,349
I've got attorneys from DOJ
and the governor pressuring me.

765
00:44:46,058 --> 00:44:49,145
But the man's polygraph
was as inconclusive as your interview.

766
00:44:49,896 --> 00:44:52,607
He flatlined three times.
That indicates deceptive.

767
00:44:52,690 --> 00:44:54,817
Wayne didn't react differently
to anything.

768
00:44:54,901 --> 00:44:56,402
Only sociopaths do that.

769
00:44:59,447 --> 00:45:01,824
<i>As for our efforts this evening,</i>

770
00:45:02,116 --> 00:45:04,619
we've not obtained
the necessary information

771
00:45:04,702 --> 00:45:07,330
to charge or make an arrest,

772
00:45:07,413 --> 00:45:10,249
so we will not be releasing
the name of this individual.

773
00:45:10,666 --> 00:45:12,126
We still have no suspect.

774
00:45:12,752 --> 00:45:15,838
But we are always doing more
than the public knows,

775
00:45:16,339 --> 00:45:18,299
but I cannot comment

776
00:45:18,382 --> 00:45:21,510
on any ongoing investigation
we may be conducting.

777
00:45:23,721 --> 00:45:27,141
We are doing our best to bring an end
to this prolonged tragedy.

778
00:45:27,225 --> 00:45:29,852
Wayne! Get over here. Let's go.

779
00:45:29,936 --> 00:45:32,021
If there are any developments,
we'll keep you apprised.

780
00:45:54,001 --> 00:45:55,253
Mr. Brown!

781
00:46:15,106 --> 00:46:16,440
I brought you your paper.

782
00:46:17,692 --> 00:46:18,526
Thanks.

783
00:46:20,361 --> 00:46:21,696
Don't you want to read it?

784
00:46:24,115 --> 00:46:26,492
- Oh, no.
- They printed the man's name and address.

785
00:46:26,575 --> 00:46:27,743
Somebody leaked this.

786
00:46:29,036 --> 00:46:30,288
This is your guy?

787
00:46:30,538 --> 00:46:32,290
- Is this him?
- We believe so.

788
00:46:32,373 --> 00:46:33,833
Because he doesn't look like...

789
00:46:33,916 --> 00:46:35,209
He doesn't look like
he could hurt anybody.

790
00:46:35,293 --> 00:46:37,128
- What he looks does not...
- They said he was smart,

791
00:46:37,211 --> 00:46:39,005
he had his own radio station,
owned his own business.

792
00:46:39,088 --> 00:46:42,174
I know it seems unlikely,
but he fits every aspect of the profile.

793
00:46:43,592 --> 00:46:44,802
What does that mean?

794
00:46:46,262 --> 00:46:49,432
We're very certain it was a black male,
early 20s to early 30s,

795
00:46:49,515 --> 00:46:51,767
- drives a certain type of car.
- That's it?

796
00:46:52,852 --> 00:46:55,771
That's what every cop
in Atlanta looks for, for every crime.

797
00:46:55,855 --> 00:46:58,190
- A young black man.
- It's a little more complicated than that.

798
00:46:58,274 --> 00:47:01,444
Did you investigate the man
who called saying where to find a body?

799
00:47:01,527 --> 00:47:03,696
Tanya, those calls were made
by sad people looking for...

800
00:47:03,779 --> 00:47:05,031
There was more than one?

801
00:47:05,114 --> 00:47:07,199
- Well...
- Well, did you ask them?

802
00:47:07,408 --> 00:47:10,411
Did you even bother to look at the men
who go out every day

803
00:47:10,494 --> 00:47:11,871
looking for young boys?

804
00:47:11,954 --> 00:47:15,374
Men these boys might have known?
Might have gotten into their car?

805
00:47:24,717 --> 00:47:26,761
- Tanya, this guy...
- "Fits."

806
00:47:27,511 --> 00:47:29,930
If you're so sure he fits,
how come you haven't arrested him?

807
00:47:30,639 --> 00:47:33,601
- Because this is going to ruin his life.
- There are procedures.

808
00:47:33,684 --> 00:47:36,270
I'm not saying, unequivocally,
he did all 29,

809
00:47:36,354 --> 00:47:38,522
- but I know he did some of them.
- What if you're wrong?

810
00:47:38,606 --> 00:47:40,483
- I'm not.
- Because he's black?

811
00:47:40,566 --> 00:47:43,569
- Because he drives some kind of car?
- Would you like to come inside?

812
00:47:43,944 --> 00:47:45,321
No, I would not.

813
00:47:45,571 --> 00:47:47,281
But I should congratulate you, Agent Ford.

814
00:47:47,448 --> 00:47:49,950
I guess y'all came here
to find a brother to fit the bill,

815
00:47:50,034 --> 00:47:51,327
and find one, you did.

816
00:47:56,457 --> 00:47:59,460
There were reporters everywhere.
Remember, they got the plumber's name.

817
00:47:59,543 --> 00:48:01,962
But they didn't call him
the "Atlanta Monster."

818
00:48:02,046 --> 00:48:04,757
Somebody leaked it. For a reason.

819
00:48:05,091 --> 00:48:06,801
It'll definitely make him sweat.

820
00:48:07,551 --> 00:48:08,844
Fuck me.

821
00:48:33,744 --> 00:48:36,205
- How many times has he peeked out?
- A few.

822
00:48:36,747 --> 00:48:37,832
Countin' the cameras.

823
00:48:37,915 --> 00:48:40,668
We're not gonna see much more of him
until this dies down.

824
00:48:41,544 --> 00:48:44,338
Station said we had
a walk-in this morning, young guy.

825
00:48:44,630 --> 00:48:47,550
The tip lines have been flooded.
Suddenly everybody's seen Wayne,

826
00:48:47,633 --> 00:48:50,594
they all got something to tell,
long as they're in line for a reward.

827
00:48:50,678 --> 00:48:52,638
But this guy may be worth our time.

828
00:48:53,222 --> 00:48:54,390
Let's go talk to him.

829
00:48:54,890 --> 00:48:55,850
Morning.

830
00:48:56,767 --> 00:48:57,726
Y'all ready?

831
00:48:58,519 --> 00:48:59,979
Here's a copy of my résumé.

832
00:49:00,396 --> 00:49:01,689
Everybody take one.

833
00:49:02,106 --> 00:49:04,942
The rules are nobody shows my face.
If y'all agree to that, come on in.

834
00:49:06,110 --> 00:49:08,988
Our Renaissance man knows how to get
in front of a story.

835
00:49:09,071 --> 00:49:09,905
Let's, uh...

836
00:49:17,246 --> 00:49:18,873
<i>Did you kill those children, Wayne?</i>

837
00:49:19,165 --> 00:49:20,666
<i>No, I did not.</i>

838
00:49:20,749 --> 00:49:22,626
<i>Then why are you a suspect?</i>

839
00:49:23,169 --> 00:49:26,839
<i>I got stopped by the FBI
at the James Jackson Parkway Bridge.</i>

840
00:49:26,922 --> 00:49:28,591
<i>They asked me
what I'd dropped in the river.</i>

841
00:49:28,674 --> 00:49:30,342
<i>I said, "Nothing."</i>

842
00:49:30,426 --> 00:49:32,636
<i>Ever since then,
they've been following me.</i>

843
00:49:32,720 --> 00:49:34,847
<i>- For no reason?
- Oh, they got their reasons.</i>

844
00:49:34,930 --> 00:49:36,807
<i>They're desperate
to pin these murders on someone,</i>

845
00:49:36,891 --> 00:49:38,976
<i>and they know damn well
if they arrest a white man,</i>

846
00:49:39,059 --> 00:49:40,644
<i>this city will burn.</i>

847
00:49:40,728 --> 00:49:42,229
<i>What do you want, Mr. Williams?</i>

848
00:49:42,313 --> 00:49:43,439
<i>To be left alone.</i>

849
00:49:43,522 --> 00:49:47,109
<i>And an apology from those FBI agents
who spent last night threatening me</i>

850
00:49:47,193 --> 00:49:48,027
<i>and accusing me.</i>

851
00:49:48,110 --> 00:49:50,404
- I think he's referring to you.
- Or you.

852
00:49:50,488 --> 00:49:51,572
<i>Did you know any of the victims?</i>

853
00:49:51,655 --> 00:49:52,573
<i>No, sir.</i>

854
00:49:52,656 --> 00:49:55,201
<i>Do you want to say anything
to the families of the victims?</i>

855
00:49:55,284 --> 00:49:57,077
<i>Well, I work with children so I know</i>

856
00:49:57,161 --> 00:50:00,247
<i>some of these kids are in places
they don't have no business being in.</i>

857
00:50:00,331 --> 00:50:03,209
<i>Got no supervision.
They're just runnin' the streets.</i>

858
00:50:03,292 --> 00:50:04,668
<i>And I'm saying, while you're doing that...</i>

859
00:50:04,752 --> 00:50:07,004
<i>that's not giving anyone
a license to kill...</i>

860
00:50:07,087 --> 00:50:10,299
<i>but you open yourself up
to all types of things. Bad things.</i>

861
00:50:10,382 --> 00:50:13,511
<i>Mr. Williams, did the FBI ask you to take
a polygraph test?</i>

862
00:50:13,594 --> 00:50:16,931
<i>Yes. And I did so voluntarily.
It was considered inconclusive.</i>

863
00:50:17,014 --> 00:50:19,850
What suspected murderer
risks holding a press conference

864
00:50:19,934 --> 00:50:21,268
with no lawyer and no preparation?

865
00:50:21,352 --> 00:50:23,020
Someone who's certain
he'll never be caught.

866
00:50:23,103 --> 00:50:25,231
Or someone who's really pissed
of being wrongly accused.

867
00:50:27,399 --> 00:50:28,526
Let's go talk to your pigeon.

868
00:50:28,609 --> 00:50:30,861
<i>When I said I didn't,
they called me a liar.</i>

869
00:50:31,320 --> 00:50:33,239
You said you know Wayne Williams?

870
00:50:33,322 --> 00:50:35,074
Yeah. Me and Wayne play ball together.

871
00:50:35,824 --> 00:50:37,576
Sometimes we do music on the side.

872
00:50:38,786 --> 00:50:40,412
If I tell y'all what I know,
and y'all use it,

873
00:50:40,496 --> 00:50:41,705
I get that reward, right?

874
00:50:41,789 --> 00:50:44,375
Let's chat for a while,
then see if I need to call the mayor.

875
00:50:44,458 --> 00:50:45,417
Okay.

876
00:50:45,501 --> 00:50:48,128
So, Mr. Marcus, what can you tell us?

877
00:50:48,212 --> 00:50:50,756
Well, you see,
Wayne ain't like you always see him.

878
00:50:51,173 --> 00:50:52,591
- He's a Gemini.
- His horoscope?

879
00:50:53,008 --> 00:50:54,218
Yeah, you know, like, the twins.

880
00:50:54,301 --> 00:50:56,095
Except with Wayne, you never know
which one you're gonna get.

881
00:50:56,178 --> 00:50:58,556
- And one is worse than the other?
- Oh, yeah.

882
00:50:58,639 --> 00:51:01,892
He can get angry sometimes.
He doesn't look like it, but he can.

883
00:51:01,976 --> 00:51:03,227
What does Wayne get angry about?

884
00:51:03,310 --> 00:51:04,895
A while back,
some folks came around

885
00:51:04,979 --> 00:51:07,940
looking for donations,
you know, to help find those missing kids.

886
00:51:08,482 --> 00:51:10,651
- Well, I was gonna put something in...
- Very generous.

887
00:51:10,734 --> 00:51:12,820
Well, yeah, but Wayne told me
don't waste the money.

888
00:51:13,571 --> 00:51:16,073
He said those dead kids
were nothing but a bunch of prostitutes

889
00:51:16,156 --> 00:51:17,950
hanging around the streets all night long.

890
00:51:18,033 --> 00:51:20,494
- He called the victims prostitutes?
- He acted like it was a good thing.

891
00:51:21,203 --> 00:51:23,539
Said that they were drop shots
and giving us a bad name.

892
00:51:24,081 --> 00:51:26,083
Said we work so hard,
but we can't get nothing done.

893
00:51:26,166 --> 00:51:27,376
What's a drop shot?

894
00:51:27,459 --> 00:51:29,503
Anybody who ain't worth much of nothing.

895
00:51:29,587 --> 00:51:32,339
You just shoot 'em, drop 'em,
get 'em gone.

896
00:51:33,132 --> 00:51:34,675
Could go to motive.

897
00:51:34,758 --> 00:51:36,802
Like he was cleaning up the streets.

898
00:51:37,636 --> 00:51:38,929
Or it's more personal.

899
00:51:40,347 --> 00:51:43,809
Wayne's parents have him late,
give him everything to succeed.

900
00:51:44,852 --> 00:51:48,814
He works hard at school,
he's smart, runs his own radio station.

901
00:51:48,897 --> 00:51:50,149
The next Berry Gordy.

902
00:51:50,441 --> 00:51:51,275
Who?

903
00:51:52,401 --> 00:51:54,403
- Never mind.
- But everything dries up.

904
00:51:54,486 --> 00:51:57,489
Radio station gets closed down,
he drops out of college.

905
00:51:57,573 --> 00:51:59,533
Wayne never reaches his full potential.

906
00:52:00,075 --> 00:52:01,160
Why?

907
00:52:01,744 --> 00:52:03,162
He believes it's
because he's seen

908
00:52:03,245 --> 00:52:04,747
as just another black kid.

909
00:52:05,205 --> 00:52:08,292
It's a box he can't get out of.
So who does he take it out on?

910
00:52:08,584 --> 00:52:09,668
Poor black kids.

911
00:52:09,752 --> 00:52:11,420
He's trying to regain control.

912
00:52:11,503 --> 00:52:13,130
Like Berkowitz, Kemper.

913
00:52:13,213 --> 00:52:15,549
Men plagued by inadequacy and failure.

914
00:52:15,966 --> 00:52:19,845
Williams isn't ashamed of his sexuality,
he's ashamed of his failure to achieve.

915
00:52:20,137 --> 00:52:23,098
That's why he talks himself up.
That's why he exaggerates.

916
00:52:23,599 --> 00:52:24,933
Maybe that's why he kills.

917
00:52:26,602 --> 00:52:28,437
Plays to your narcissist angle.

918
00:52:29,021 --> 00:52:32,066
But even if Mr. Civic Duty
is telling the truth,

919
00:52:32,566 --> 00:52:34,193
there's nothing material there.

920
00:52:34,610 --> 00:52:36,862
It's not evidence, Holden. It's a theory.

921
00:52:36,945 --> 00:52:40,199
And we know we're not getting
an arrest warrant based on "psychology."

922
00:52:40,282 --> 00:52:42,284
Now that Wayne's a sideshow,
he can't even jaywalk

923
00:52:42,368 --> 00:52:43,994
without being on the nightly news.

924
00:52:44,078 --> 00:52:46,538
The likelihood of him snatching
another victim is zero.

925
00:52:47,665 --> 00:52:48,791
Disappointed?

926
00:52:49,541 --> 00:52:53,212
I'm going to the hotel.
Have a drink, call my wife. You coming?

927
00:52:54,421 --> 00:52:57,132
Yeah.

928
00:52:57,216 --> 00:52:58,967
<i>There are federal guidelines
regarding our jur...</i>

929
00:52:59,051 --> 00:53:00,928
<i>- Maybe you can be one of us.</i>
<i>- </i>Go back.

930
00:53:01,011 --> 00:53:04,473
<i>- The few, the proud...
- We simply had to get involved.</i>

931
00:53:04,765 --> 00:53:07,601
<i>The bureau's been in Atlanta
for several months now.</i>

932
00:53:08,102 --> 00:53:11,063
<i>How has a federal presence
affected the investigation?</i>

933
00:53:11,146 --> 00:53:14,650
<i>Our agents augment the efforts
of the task force in individual cases,</i>

934
00:53:14,900 --> 00:53:17,069
<i>and we've made progress
in our own investigations</i>

935
00:53:17,152 --> 00:53:19,113
<i>into many of the crimes
that we believe are linked.</i>

936
00:53:19,196 --> 00:53:22,491
<i>With regards to arrests, the sum total
during the investigation so far</i>

937
00:53:22,574 --> 00:53:23,575
<i>has been zero.</i>

938
00:53:23,909 --> 00:53:27,579
<i>And the press is consistently told
there are no suspects.</i>

939
00:53:27,663 --> 00:53:30,666
<i>Can you be specific
on the progress you've made?</i>

940
00:53:30,749 --> 00:53:32,668
- <i>I believe it's significant.</i>
- What's he doing?

941
00:53:32,751 --> 00:53:34,628
<i>I am quietly confident
that an arrest is imminent.</i>

942
00:53:35,087 --> 00:53:36,839
- Putting us on a deadline.
<i>- You have a suspect?</i>

943
00:53:37,172 --> 00:53:39,174
<i>I'm not going to give details
at this time,</i>

944
00:53:39,258 --> 00:53:41,468
<i>but we should have some information soon.</i>

945
00:53:41,552 --> 00:53:43,679
<i>Twenty-three-year-old Wayne Williams,</i>

946
00:53:43,762 --> 00:53:46,306
<i>a talent agent and music promoter.</i>

947
00:53:46,390 --> 00:53:50,269
<i>While law enforcement has said
only that there will be no arrest,</i>

948
00:53:50,352 --> 00:53:53,230
<i>Williams gave reporters a glimpse...</i>

949
00:54:56,126 --> 00:54:57,711
Has he left the house today?

950
00:54:57,795 --> 00:54:58,670
Not Wayne.

951
00:54:58,754 --> 00:55:00,923
Homer came out and took photographs
of the photographers.

952
00:55:01,006 --> 00:55:03,342
You see Webster on <i>NewsHour?</i>

953
00:55:04,051 --> 00:55:05,552
Think Slaton's changed his mind?

954
00:55:05,636 --> 00:55:08,055
I think somebody's making it clear
they want him to.

955
00:55:08,138 --> 00:55:09,139
Any news from the lab?

956
00:55:09,223 --> 00:55:12,726
Peterson's matched carpet fibers
from his bedroom to 14 victims.

957
00:55:13,018 --> 00:55:13,894
The dog hair to five.

958
00:55:14,686 --> 00:55:17,898
Shame the DA doesn't care
for all that scientific mumbo jumbo.

959
00:55:19,983 --> 00:55:22,194
- Mr. Williams!
- Mr. Williams! Come on!

960
00:55:22,277 --> 00:55:23,111
Give me a picture!

961
00:55:47,219 --> 00:55:49,388
I've been here all night.
You want this one?

962
00:55:49,471 --> 00:55:50,472
Sure.

963
00:56:17,249 --> 00:56:18,208
Officer!

964
00:56:21,461 --> 00:56:24,339
Do me a favor. If the father comes out,
call it in to the station.

965
00:56:24,423 --> 00:56:26,341
- You got it.
- Thank you.

966
00:56:28,677 --> 00:56:29,595
<i>He's loving this.</i>

967
00:56:29,678 --> 00:56:33,307
Police, press, choppers...
Like a fucking presidential motorcade.

968
00:56:33,390 --> 00:56:35,642
And he knows
it's a colossal waste of time.

969
00:56:35,726 --> 00:56:38,937
The hours we spend following him
to convenience stores and dive bars

970
00:56:39,021 --> 00:56:40,564
get us no closer to an arrest.

971
00:56:41,607 --> 00:56:42,900
Could be a late lunch.

972
00:56:43,692 --> 00:56:46,278
Maybe we'll get
another shitty fish sandwich.

973
00:57:19,853 --> 00:57:22,814
Maynard Jackson! Mayor!

974
00:57:23,732 --> 00:57:25,525
Come look at the mess you made!

975
00:57:27,235 --> 00:57:29,071
Funny way to demand less attention.

976
00:57:29,404 --> 00:57:30,447
Yeah, it is.

977
00:57:33,492 --> 00:57:35,452
Mayor! You put out a bounty,

978
00:57:35,535 --> 00:57:37,579
but don't care
if you frame an innocent man?

979
00:57:37,663 --> 00:57:39,331
Come look at what I have to live with!

980
00:57:41,792 --> 00:57:44,586
Where are you going, Mayor?
To call the police?

981
00:57:44,670 --> 00:57:45,837
They already here!

982
00:57:47,130 --> 00:57:48,590
Why are you hiding?

983
00:57:48,674 --> 00:57:51,176
Get back out here
and look at what you have done!

984
00:57:51,259 --> 00:57:53,971
<i>Station to A-T-64.
Package two is moving.</i>

985
00:57:54,054 --> 00:57:55,222
<i>Package two is moving.</i>

986
00:57:55,305 --> 00:57:57,432
<i>Traveling west in a black Mercury sedan.</i>

987
00:57:59,226 --> 00:58:01,395
A-T-64 has eyes on him.

988
00:58:24,209 --> 00:58:25,752
- Hmm. Mm-hmm.
- Excuse me.

989
00:58:25,836 --> 00:58:26,795
Hi.

990
00:58:26,878 --> 00:58:28,547
- Sorry. Uh...
- Hi.

991
00:58:29,965 --> 00:58:32,259
The man who just left here,
what did he want?

992
00:58:32,884 --> 00:58:35,637
He was inquiring about charters
to South America.

993
00:58:36,596 --> 00:58:38,890
Did he purchase anything, a ticket?

994
00:58:38,974 --> 00:58:42,227
No. But he did say
he might be seeing me again soon.

995
00:58:43,729 --> 00:58:44,646
Thank you.

996
00:58:45,022 --> 00:58:47,024
We've seen unsubs exhibit hubris.

997
00:58:48,025 --> 00:58:50,485
Writing letters, hanging out in cop bars.

998
00:58:50,819 --> 00:58:52,904
But if one of them
had openly become a suspect,

999
00:58:52,988 --> 00:58:54,448
would they be taunting police?

1000
00:58:54,531 --> 00:58:56,658
This guy has
no self-preservation instinct.

1001
00:58:57,159 --> 00:59:00,746
This is his one chance to get
the attention he feels he deserves.

1002
00:59:01,246 --> 00:59:02,539
As soon as the story slows down,

1003
00:59:02,622 --> 00:59:04,624
he finds a way to get the cameras
back on him.

1004
00:59:04,708 --> 00:59:05,709
There you are.

1005
00:59:07,002 --> 00:59:08,045
You missed it.

1006
00:59:08,378 --> 00:59:11,089
- Missed what?
- Guess where Quincy Jones took us today?

1007
00:59:11,173 --> 00:59:13,175
- The mayor's house.
- And not just a drive-by.

1008
00:59:13,258 --> 00:59:16,762
He parked the whole convoy on the road.
Ringmaster of his own media circus.

1009
00:59:16,845 --> 00:59:18,764
- It was unbelievable.
- It makes perfect sense.

1010
00:59:18,847 --> 00:59:20,807
- That's what I was saying.
- It's a diversion.

1011
00:59:21,725 --> 00:59:23,310
- A diversion?
- For?

1012
00:59:23,393 --> 00:59:26,229
After he pulled out, Homer left the house.
I followed him to the airport.

1013
00:59:26,313 --> 00:59:30,067
He made inquiries with a private charter
about flights to South America.

1014
00:59:31,318 --> 00:59:32,527
You gotta call Slaton.

1015
00:59:33,111 --> 00:59:34,821
We may not be able
to give him any more evidence,

1016
00:59:34,905 --> 00:59:37,324
but our main suspect
just became a flight risk.

1017
00:59:40,994 --> 00:59:42,329
It wasn't just hubris.

1018
00:59:43,163 --> 00:59:44,247
It was strategic.

1019
01:00:04,392 --> 01:00:06,520
If they won't take flight risk
as probable cause,

1020
01:00:06,603 --> 01:00:09,147
we're gonna be sittin' out here
till the next body drops.

1021
01:00:19,241 --> 01:00:20,283
What the fuck?

1022
01:00:35,465 --> 01:00:39,386
- They're bringing him out!
- What are the charges?

1023
01:00:53,900 --> 01:00:55,152
Did I miss something?

1024
01:00:55,235 --> 01:00:56,361
Looks like we all did.

1025
01:01:04,119 --> 01:01:07,330
The DA told us we had
insubstantial evidence. It's his drumbeat.

1026
01:01:07,414 --> 01:01:09,958
It seems he was persuaded
to change his mind.

1027
01:01:10,041 --> 01:01:10,917
How?

1028
01:01:11,001 --> 01:01:14,045
The Justice Department invited themselves
to the governor's mansion last night.

1029
01:01:14,129 --> 01:01:16,464
- And the DA was guest of honor.
- He was.

1030
01:01:16,548 --> 01:01:19,009
The fibers from the search came back
a perfect match.

1031
01:01:19,092 --> 01:01:21,928
Justice was able to convince him
that he could get a conviction with that.

1032
01:01:22,012 --> 01:01:24,055
Slaton agreed to charge him
with two of the murders,

1033
01:01:24,139 --> 01:01:25,765
as long as his officers made the arrest.

1034
01:01:25,849 --> 01:01:27,976
- We don't care who hauls him in.
- Exactly.

1035
01:01:28,059 --> 01:01:30,520
- Which two is he charged with?
- The one near the bridge. Carter?

1036
01:01:30,604 --> 01:01:33,273
- Cater.
- And number 27. Payne, I think.

1037
01:01:33,356 --> 01:01:35,859
Both adults? They aren't getting him
for any of the children?

1038
01:01:35,942 --> 01:01:39,029
Look, he could be good for anywhere
from two to ten of them.

1039
01:01:39,112 --> 01:01:41,656
They'll charge him with as many
as they think will get convictions.

1040
01:01:41,740 --> 01:01:44,409
The important thing is
we got him off the streets.

1041
01:01:45,160 --> 01:01:49,164
Earlier today, a man
by the name of Wayne Bertram Williams

1042
01:01:49,247 --> 01:01:53,627
was arrested and charged with the murders
of Nathaniel Cater and Jimmy Ray Payne.

1043
01:01:54,544 --> 01:01:58,131
This arrest comes
after an extensive investigation led

1044
01:01:58,215 --> 01:01:59,549
by the FBI,

1045
01:01:59,633 --> 01:02:02,093
in conjunction with local
and state authorities.

1046
01:02:02,928 --> 01:02:07,849
<i>I now pray our city, which has
been through so much, can rest,</i>

1047
01:02:07,933 --> 01:02:12,187
<i>and that today's events mark
the start of a time for us to heal.</i>

1048
01:02:12,270 --> 01:02:14,481
Left a stack of shit on your desk.

1049
01:02:14,564 --> 01:02:15,815
Still a lot to clean up.

1050
01:02:15,899 --> 01:02:16,816
Thanks.

1051
01:02:17,525 --> 01:02:19,277
Remember your kid in the mall,

1052
01:02:19,361 --> 01:02:21,988
the house next to Fulton County Stadium
he talked about?

1053
01:02:22,113 --> 01:02:22,948
Yeah.

1054
01:02:23,031 --> 01:02:24,824
I asked a recruit to go
through three years

1055
01:02:24,908 --> 01:02:28,245
of pedophile complaints
and convictions, look for any red flags.

1056
01:02:28,328 --> 01:02:29,162
Found this guy.

1057
01:02:29,246 --> 01:02:31,081
Sixty-three-years-old, black.

1058
01:02:31,164 --> 01:02:34,668
We got complaints of young boys
being given drugs and spending the night.

1059
01:02:36,836 --> 01:02:37,963
This fucking smells.

1060
01:02:38,338 --> 01:02:40,632
There's no connection between him
and the house in Lakewood.

1061
01:02:40,715 --> 01:02:41,549
The old white guy.

1062
01:02:41,633 --> 01:02:44,886
This recruit was on the detail
that boxed up the Polaroids from Lakewood.

1063
01:02:44,970 --> 01:02:47,430
He swears there were pictures
of black children among them.

1064
01:02:47,514 --> 01:02:50,183
Evidence log said the photos
were exclusively young white males.

1065
01:02:50,267 --> 01:02:53,019
He also said they hauled out
thousands of Polaroids.

1066
01:02:54,771 --> 01:02:57,357
This puts the number
between 300 and 400.

1067
01:02:57,774 --> 01:02:59,859
He says APD locked up the photos.

1068
01:03:00,485 --> 01:03:03,196
But when they got logged into evidence,
there were no pictures of black children.

1069
01:03:03,280 --> 01:03:06,199
Would your recruit go on record
with the district attorney?

1070
01:03:06,283 --> 01:03:09,786
He doesn't want his name to be used.
He's just giving us something to run down.

1071
01:03:09,869 --> 01:03:12,455
We know two of our victims
visited the Lakewood house.

1072
01:03:12,914 --> 01:03:16,793
And we have an unverified account
of kids going to a "stadium house."

1073
01:03:17,294 --> 01:03:18,628
You've got the manpower now.

1074
01:03:18,712 --> 01:03:21,006
Start with those two houses,
question the neighbors,

1075
01:03:21,089 --> 01:03:23,216
press the offenders.
Something will shake loose.

1076
01:03:25,218 --> 01:03:27,679
Do it quietly, independently.

1077
01:03:27,762 --> 01:03:30,515
We've been working
with this task force for months.

1078
01:03:30,598 --> 01:03:32,892
Somebody from APD knew
we should have been looking

1079
01:03:32,976 --> 01:03:34,477
at these guys all along.

1080
01:04:04,883 --> 01:04:06,885
Smells good.

1081
01:04:08,470 --> 01:04:11,473
- You come to be congratulated?
- To say goodbye.

1082
01:04:11,890 --> 01:04:14,768
For now.
But I want you to know I'll be back.

1083
01:04:15,185 --> 01:04:16,811
The FBI is still working these cases.

1084
01:04:16,895 --> 01:04:19,981
My son Yusef's been dead 20 months now,
Agent Ford.

1085
01:04:20,732 --> 01:04:23,651
All my Yusef could've
and should've been is gone.

1086
01:04:25,403 --> 01:04:29,574
And you're telling me that
that is on account of Wayne Williams?

1087
01:04:29,824 --> 01:04:30,658
Yes.

1088
01:04:30,742 --> 01:04:32,911
Then why hasn't he been arrested for it?

1089
01:04:32,994 --> 01:04:35,497
Why hasn't he been charged
with killing of any of our babies?

1090
01:04:36,873 --> 01:04:37,999
More charges will be brought.

1091
01:04:38,083 --> 01:04:39,834
Is it
because you aren't really sure it's him?

1092
01:04:40,460 --> 01:04:44,089
Mrs. Bell, I'm not saying
Williams perpetrated all 29 murders.

1093
01:04:44,172 --> 01:04:47,801
But right now,
we have enough to tie him to two.

1094
01:04:47,884 --> 01:04:50,220
And I'm confident, given time,

1095
01:04:50,303 --> 01:04:53,056
we'll be able to charge him
with a significant number of them.

1096
01:04:53,390 --> 01:04:56,142
We still have agents from all over
working every case diligently.

1097
01:04:56,226 --> 01:04:59,270
You do now. But what about tomorrow?

1098
01:04:59,354 --> 01:05:03,233
When everybody decides they've found
their scapegoat and that is good enough.

1099
01:05:05,318 --> 01:05:06,903
What are we gonna be left with?

1100
01:05:06,986 --> 01:05:08,363
We are not leaving.

1101
01:05:08,446 --> 01:05:10,156
And Williams will spend
the rest of his life in...

1102
01:05:10,240 --> 01:05:12,534
Not for Yusef's death.

1103
01:05:14,077 --> 01:05:15,120
Or Jeffrey's.

1104
01:05:15,703 --> 01:05:17,497
Or Angel's. Or Earl's.

1105
01:05:18,623 --> 01:05:21,709
Wayne Williams didn't kill my boy.
I know that in my bones.

1106
01:05:23,128 --> 01:05:24,879
You've gone and found yourselves
a black man.

1107
01:05:24,963 --> 01:05:27,090
Wayne might just be Atlanta's 30th victim.

1108
01:05:27,173 --> 01:05:28,633
I can promise you that's not true.

1109
01:05:30,468 --> 01:05:32,679
Careful about making promises, Agent Ford.

1110
01:05:37,016 --> 01:05:39,269
That is known as a victory lap.

1111
01:05:39,352 --> 01:05:42,147
<i>...families who have waited
so long for justice.</i>

1112
01:05:42,689 --> 01:05:44,816
It's supposed to be taken
at the end of the race.

1113
01:05:47,068 --> 01:05:48,236
I'm sorry to interrupt.

1114
01:05:49,070 --> 01:05:51,990
Enjoy your meal, and I will see you soon.

1115
01:06:04,836 --> 01:06:06,087
Congratulations!

1116
01:06:06,421 --> 01:06:09,966
- Have The Beatles landed?
<i>- We're </i>the fucking Beatles.

1117
01:06:10,049 --> 01:06:12,051
Wow! Beats Delta.

1118
01:06:12,719 --> 01:06:14,137
Webster's very pleased.

1119
01:06:14,220 --> 01:06:16,890
He's deemed the bureau's success
as largely due to us.

1120
01:06:17,515 --> 01:06:19,434
It's nice, being recognized.

1121
01:06:19,517 --> 01:06:20,768
Well, you've earned it.

1122
01:06:21,060 --> 01:06:24,063
We closed the highest profile case
in the country.

1123
01:06:24,772 --> 01:06:27,358
We're downgrading Atlanta
to pending inactive status.

1124
01:06:27,442 --> 01:06:29,110
The director wants to show
his appreciation.

1125
01:06:29,194 --> 01:06:30,778
Wait, inactive?

1126
01:06:30,862 --> 01:06:33,490
We'll keep a few agents here
for trial support

1127
01:06:33,573 --> 01:06:34,991
and cataloging evidence.

1128
01:06:35,074 --> 01:06:35,992
What about the kids?

1129
01:06:37,035 --> 01:06:39,746
It's up to the DA
which cases get tied to Williams.

1130
01:06:40,413 --> 01:06:43,791
The important thing is,
from now on, we'll be first in.

1131
01:06:44,584 --> 01:06:45,877
Atlanta's changed everything.

1132
01:06:48,838 --> 01:06:50,089
We did our jobs.

1133
01:06:50,882 --> 01:06:53,176
We have no control over anything else.

1134
01:06:54,886 --> 01:06:56,221
Take a victory lap.

1135
01:08:30,273 --> 01:08:32,108
<i>President Reagan has told Congress</i>

1136
01:08:32,191 --> 01:08:33,401
<i>he will throw his full support</i>

1137
01:08:33,484 --> 01:08:36,154

1138
01:08:43,536 --> 01:08:47,915
<i>And the adoption of the amendment

1139
01:08:48,416 --> 01:08:51,711
<i>The House will vote on the proposed
amendment in the coming weeks.</i>

1140
01:08:52,253 --> 01:08:54,464
<i>In Atlanta today,
the public safety commissioner</i>

1141
01:08:54,547 --> 01:08:55,757
<i>and the district attorney</i>

1142
01:08:55,840 --> 01:08:58,259
<i>held a press conference
to announce developments</i>

1143
01:08:58,343 --> 01:09:01,304
<i>in the case of the city's
missing and murdered children.</i>

1144

you reach a point</i>

1145
01:09:03,306 --> 01:09:04,474
<i>when you've done all you can.</i>

1146
01:09:04,932 --> 01:09:08,269
<i>So for now, we're suspending
all 29 investigations,</i>

1147
01:09:08,770 --> 01:09:11,147
<i>having arrested our prime suspect.</i>

1148
01:09:11,230 --> 01:09:13,316
<i>Commissioner!</i>

1149
01:09:13,983 --> 01:09:17,654
<i>Will Wayne Williams
be indicted for more than two murders?</i>

1150
01:09:17,737 --> 01:09:19,030
<i>At this time, no.</i>

1151
01:09:20,073 --> 01:09:21,699
<i>Does that mean
you're telling the families</i>

1152

<i>of the other victims</i>

1153
01:09:22,700 --> 01:09:25,244
<i>that the man who murdered their children
might walk free?</i>

1154
01:09:27,288 --> 01:09:28,122
<i>No, we are not.</i>

1155
01:09:28,289 --> 01:09:30,416
<i>I would say to them
that their children's cases</i>

1156
01:09:30,500 --> 01:09:32,835
<i>will be handed
to local police departments.</i>

1157
01:09:32,919 --> 01:09:33,961
<i>I would also say that,</i>

1158
01:09:34,045 --> 01:09:37,256
<i>while we may not have
all the required evidence to convict,</i>

1159
01:09:37,340 --> 01:09:39,342
<i>we do have enough to close.</i>
