CSI: New York--'Dancing With The Fishes'

CSI Files

Captain
Synopsis:

A couple driving home on the FDR is irritated with motorcycle drivers around them until a body falls on their windshield. The young woman is Kia Rowe, and Detective Flack thinks she may have committed suicide--until Mac discovers defensive wounds on her hands. Dr. Sid Hammerback thinks the defensive wounds are from a knife. He sent a fingernail fragment, as well as scrapings from under Kia's nails, to trace. Stella notices bunions and a hammer shape to Kia's feet and concludes that she was a dancer. Stella finds a lottery ticket and also some choreography notes, and is able to figure out what dance school Kia was studying at.

Danny and Dr. Hawkes are in the Bronx where a man lies dead from a stab wound to the chest. Danny is shocked to see that the wound goes all the way through his body. Hawkes determines he's been dead around twelve hours. Dr. Hammerback notes the victim's fishy smell and finds sand in his shoe. He gives Danny several small trace elements from the victim's wound, presumably left by the murder weapon.

Mac, Stella and Flack head to the dance school where Kia studied. Stella finds glass shards in the shoes in Kia's locker, along with several more lottery tickets with the same number as the one Kia had on her. Mac discovers similar glass under and on the handle of the locker of one of the other dancers, Shayna. Mac peeks through the slits of her locker and spots a knife. Flack interrogates Shayna, who admits to putting glass in Kia's shoes--she was jealous of the attention the choreographer paid Kia. She denies killing Kia, but Flack wants to see the knife in her locker.

Another great review!!

Who enjoyed Dr. Hammerback? I was surprised not to see Evan back. Perhaps he has had his stay?
