CSI Files
Captain
According to CSI Files sources, “Leaving Las Vegas” opens with an elderly woman, Addie Finch, washing dishes at night in the kitchen of her farmhouse. She hears creaking noises and calls out for “Jay,” but is answered with eerie silence. All of a sudden an out-of-focus silhouetted figure charges toward her, assailing her with a quick succession of stab wounds.
Inside the courthouse, Catherine testifies at the murder trial of Jay Finch, Addie Finch’s son. The opening scene is a version of events that unfolds in the context of the courtroom. Catherine describes how CSI processed the knife and found blood from four different sources. One source being the victim, another her son, with two more belonging to unknown genetically related females.
A series of short scenes runs through the murder case point-by-point, rather than chronologically. Catherine testifies that Jay Finch killed his mother because his blood was found on the knife and also in his mother’s bathroom. As stabbing is messing business, she hypothesizes that Finch likely cut himself. Ultimately, Finch’s attorney establishes reasonable doubt by getting Catherine to admit that it’s possible one of the two unknown females was the assailant. Finch is found not guilty.
Catherine becomes determined to identify the two mystery blood sources, convinced they are two other victims of Finch’s. If she can identify them, Finch could be charged with a new crime. No double jeopardy and the knife could be used again.
Catherine and Nick head to the small town of Mina, Nevada to investigate the bloody disappearance of Laura Burchfield and her daughter Robyn in the hopes of linking their blood to Finch’s knife. Their disappearances coincide with Catherine’s time line.
Grissom drops a bomb on his team in this episode. He announces he will be taking a sabbatical. Hence the title -- “Leaving Las Vegas.”
