CSI Files
Captain
Synopsis:
The CSIs are called to Omni Condos where a young woman, Christina Hollis, has been attacked and sexually assaulted. Grissom is irritated to learn they're being shadowed by Hard Crime, a reality crime show that tails real police investigations. Sofia takes Christina to the hospital, but the young woman has no memory of the attack, though she becomes visibly upset when she looks down at her painted toenails and then notices the cameras filming. Sofia angrily sends them away and takes the sexual assault kit on Christina to process. Gil and Catherine examine Christina's apartment, finding no evidence of forced entry. Instead, they find burned candles and a drop of nail polish, indicating Christina may have been expecting a date, or on one. Catherine finds a small scrap of shiny yellow fabric. Brass takes the building's maintenance man's duct tape to compare it to the tape used to tie Christina to her bed. Hodges compares the tape using laser ablation, but it's not a match.
Going over the surveillance tapes from the building, Catherine and Archie spot a man entering the elevator at 10:32pm, but they never see him exit. Nick lifts prints from a bouquet found outside Christina's apartment and runs them. Though he doesn't find a match in AFIS, he's able to contact the store they were purchased from and gets the credit card information of the man who bought them. Dwight Reynolds. Sofia and Brass question an intoxicated Dwight, but he is devastated to learn Christina was assaulted. They were seeing each other and he assumed when he went to her door with flowers that she had found a new guy. He's distraught when he learns that she was being raped when he came over and he didn't stop it. In the DNA lab, Wendy Simms has learned that white flecks Grissom found by the bed are skin cells from Christina's feet, and also that the amount of sperm inside her indicates she was assaulted repeatedly. Catherine tells Grissom that toxicology found high amounts of Lorazepam, a sedative, in Christina's blood. Elsewhere in the lab, Hodges shows Sara that the yellow fabric found at the scene is fire retardant material from a fireman's uniform.
Brass and Sara question the captain of the Las Vegas Fire Department, Ken Hendricks. He tells them his team responded to an alarm at the building at 6:58pm that evening. Someone had places smoke bombs on three of the floors, similar to a case they saw three weeks ago at another apartment building, Oak Terrace. He angrily denies the idea that any of his men would have assaulted Christina, and he has proof--the fire retardant reflective material on their coats is orange, not yellow. Archie and Catherine turn back to the surveillance tapes and learn a fireman showed up at 6:36pm, over twenty minutes before the alarm went off. Greg goes to dust the door in the underground garage he used for prints. Christina shows up at the station to tell Sofia that she remembers the assault--she remembers being raped, and also that the man was touching her feet. Sara goes to the internet to find out where the rapist might have bought his uniform, and notices in the surveillance photos that the man's tank is rigged wrong--could he have been using it to distribute the Lorazepam?
