[Man] MARY FLANNIGAN WAS
ALREADY MISSING FOUR DAYS...
WHEN WE CAUGHT BRUNELLI.
WE CAUGHT HIM ATTACKING
YOUNG CASEY PETERSEN.
FOR THREE DAYS, HE DENIED
THAT HE HAD KIDNAPPED MARY.
AND THEN HE LED US
RIGHT TO HER BODY.
SHE'D BEEN SEXUALLY ASSAULTED,
BEEN LEFT WITH
NO FOOD, NO WATER.
SHE DIED OF THIRST.
CAN YOU IMAGINE THAT?
SHE DIED OF THIRST.
SHE WAS TEN YEARS OLD.
HE HAS SERVED 20 YEARS.
TWENTY YEARS ISN'T ENOUGH!
HE DIDN'T JUST KILL MARY!
HE RUINED MY
DAUGHTER CASEY'S LIFE.
[Man] MR. BLACK, YOU'RE HERE AS AN
EXPERT WITNESS... ♪♪ [Girl Singing, Faint]
AS TO THIS MAN'S
SUITABILITY FOR PAROLE?
- YES, I AM, SIR.
- WHAT IS YOUR CONCLUSION?
[Frank] THE MAN WHO COMMITTED THESE
CRIMES HAS AN OVERPOWERING SEXUAL NEED.
RECIDIVISM IN
CHILD SEX CRIMES...
IS AMONG THE HIGHEST IN
ALL CRIMINAL CATEGORIES.
IF YOU LET THIS MAN
BACK INTO THE WORLD,
HE WILL FIND HIMSELF UNDER
UNBEARABLE PRESSURE.
IF YOU HAVE SONS AND
DAUGHTERS, ASK YOURSELF:
WOULD YOU RISK THAT
TO THIS MAN'S REMORSE?
[Man] DESPITE THE OPINION OF THE
EXPERT WITNESS, [Whispering, Indistinct]
YOUR GENUINE REMORSE AND YOUR PSYCHIATRIC
REPORTS AND EXEMPLARY BEHAVIOR...
PERSUADES US THAT YOU
ARE NOW FULLY REHABILITATED.
WE THEREFORE GRANT
YOUR REQUEST FOR PAROLE.
[Man] HE'S A KILLER!
[Chattering, Indistinct]
[Man #2] THROW HIM BACK!
- [Chattering Stops]
- OFFICER DIETZ.
I DIDN'T WANT YOU BACK HERE.
BUT THE LAW SAYS YOU GOT THAT
RIGHT, AND I RESPECT THE LAW.
THE LAW ALSO SAYS I
HAVE TO TELL THE PEOPLE...
WHO YOU ARE, WHERE YOU ARE...
AND WHAT YOU'VE DONE.
I UNDERSTAND.
HI, MAX. WHERE'S
MY DAD, MR. JARRET?
WELL, HE'S NOT HERE.
BUT I WANNA GO HOME.
WHY ISN'T DAD HERE?
YOU KNOW, I THINK HE'D BE BETTER
OFF APART FROM YA FOR A WHILE.
YOU TAKIN' RESPONSIBILITY
FOR HIM, JARRET?
I'M TREATIN' HIM LIKE A
HUMAN BEING, YEAH. YEAH?
GOOD LUCK.
[Frank] THE PAROLE BOARD HAD ALREADY
DECIDED WHAT THEY WERE GONNA DO.
WHAT IF THE RELIGIOUS
STUFF IS GENUINE?
DO YOU KNOW WHAT
A HOLDING PATTERN IS?
YEAH. IN SERIAL OFFENDERS, IT'S
A DELAY IN THE OFFENSE CYCLE.
IT CAN BE CAUSED BY SOMETHING
LIKE A PRISON SENTENCE.
BUT... 20 YEARS?
TWENTY YEARS TO IMAGINE, TO PLAN,
TO REFINE WHAT YOU'RE ABOUT TO DO...
BEFORE YOU GET ARRESTED.
FRANK, A PORTLAND RADIO STATION
CONTACTED THE PRESS OFFICE.
THEY WANT YOU TO DO A
PHONE-IN ABOUT BRUNELLI...
ABOUT WHAT IT MEANS,
HIM BEING LET BACK HERE.
I TOLD 'EM NO.
I DIDN'T WANT HIM LET OUT, BUT I DIDN'T
WANT THIS TO BECOME A WITCH HUNT.
I DON'T WANNA JOIN THAT.

DO YOU HAVE LOTS

I'M GONNA GET YA! OH, NO!
NO, YOU AREN'T! [Screams]
[Girl Giggling, Faint]
HEY! WHO IS THAT?
[Man On Radio] I'M TELLIN' YOU... HE
COMES ANYWHERE NEAR MY HOME,
ANYWHERE NEAR MY
DAUGHTER, I'LL SHOOT HIM.
[Male Host] THAT MIGHT BE
KIND OF ILLEGAL, MR. PETERSEN.
[Mr. Petersen] WHAT'S ILLEGAL IS
LETTIN' HIM TERRORIZE OUR TOWN AGAIN.
THE PEOPLE WHO LET THIS
HAPPEN SHOULD BE ASHAMED.
[Host] WELL, WE DID ASK THE F.B.I.'s
EXPERT WITNESS, MR. FRANK BLACK,
TO EXPLAIN HOW IT
HAPPENED, BUT SADLY,
MR. BLACK DECLINED.
INSTEAD, WE'VE GOT
RANDALL JARRET,
THE MAN WHO DEFENDED
MAX BRUNELLI IN THE 1979 TRIAL.
MR. JARRET? MAX BRUNELLI HAS
SPENT THE LAST 20 YEARS IN HIS CELL.
HE KNOWS HE DID A TERRIBLE
THING. HE'S BEEN PUNISHED.
HE SERVED HIS
TIME UNDER THE LAW,
AND WHETHER YOU, ME OR ANYONE
ELSE LIKES IT, HE IS A FREE CITIZEN.
ALL HE WANTS IS A CHANCE.
[Bicycle Wheel Spinning]
[Gasps]
[Sobbing]
HEY.
IT'S OKAY.
IT'S JUST A BAD DREAM.
I WAS RUNNING, BUT
HE WAS ALWAYS THERE.
HE'S NOT THERE. HE'S NOT
ANYWHERE. GO BACK TO SLEEP.
DADDY, THAT'S WHERE HE IS.
HE WANTS TO KNOW WHY
YOU WON'T FORGIVE HIM.
[Telephone Ringing]
[Dietz] HER NAME IS
SHANNON McNULTY.
SHE JUST TURNED TEN YEARS OLD.
SHE GOT A NEW BIKE
FOR HER BIRTHDAY.
OFTEN USED TO COME HERE
AND RIDE AFTER SCHOOL.
HER PARENTS ENCOURAGED
IT. WHY WOULDN'T THEY?
IT'S A QUIET PLACE.
NOTHIN' EVER HAPPENS.
NO WITNESSES? NO.
HEAD THIS WAY.
THE TRACKS GO DOWN
HERE, OBVIOUSLY.
THIS WAY. I GOT PEOPLE IN
TOWN... I GOT IT. THANK YOU.
LOOKIN' THROUGH
EVERY EMPTY SPACE.
YEAH, WE GOT SOME PRETTY GOOD
CASTS. WE'RE WORKIN' THEM UP RIGHT NOW.
[Emma] AND WHAT ABOUT BRUNELLI?
[Dietz] HE'S IN A CELL
DENYING EVERYTHING.
SHANNON'S A FEISTY
LITTLE KID. WE'LL FIND HER.
[Pounding]
[Grunting]
[Sighs]
SHE'S TEN.
HER PARENTS' HEARTS ARE BROKEN.
ALL THEY WANT IS FOR
THEIR BABY TO COME HOME.
WHERE IS SHE, MAX?
IF SHE'S NOT HERE,
SHE'S WITH THE LORD.
AT THE MOMENT, IT'S
JUST A KIDNAPPING.
NOW, IT'S BAD, BUT
IT'S NOT TOO BAD.
NOT IF YOU HELP US NOW.
I WANNA BE FORGIVEN.
[Emma] PEOPLE WILL UNDERSTAND.
TELL US WHERE SHE IS, MAX. I DON'T WANNA
BE UNDERSTOOD. I WANNA BE FORGIVEN.
[Knock On Door]
- WHAT IS THIS?
- WE'RE JUST ASKIN' QUESTIONS.
WITHOUT A LAWYER? HAVE
THEY ROUGHED YOU UP?
YOU DID, DIDN'T YOU?
HAS HE BEEN CHARGED? NOT YET.
DO YOU HAVE ANY EVIDENCE
LINKING HIM TO THIS ABDUCTION?
I WANT THIS MAN RELEASED.
THIS IS A GROSS ABUSE
OF HIS CIVIL RIGHTS.
WE GOT A MISSING
TEN-YEAR-OLD GIRL.
AND UNTIL WE FIND HER, HIS
CIVIL RIGHTS CAN GO TO HELL.
IT'S ALREADY BEEN 48 HOURS.
ARE WE TOO LATE? NO.
MARY FLANNIGAN TOOK
NEARLY A WEEK TO DIE.
HE DOESN'T JUST KILL HIS
VICTIMS. HE JUST LETS THEM DIE.
HE EVADES FINAL RESPONSIBILITY.
FRANK? I'VE GOT SOMETHING.
WHAT?
SAINT JOSEPH.
THE HOLY FAMILY.
THERE'S SOMETHING ELSE HERE.
SOMETHING.
IT LOOKS LIKE... MM-HMM.
HE DREW ALL THAT WITH MATCHES.
HOW LONG WOULD THAT TAKE?
HE HAD 20 YEARS.
WE TOOK A CAST OF BRUNELLI'S
TIRES. GOODRICH ALL-TERRAIN.
SAME TIRES AS THE CRIME SCENE.
PLUS, ON BRUNELLI'S TIRES, SAND.
SAME AS AT THE CRIME
SCENE. IT'S NOT MUCH, BUT...
WE HAVE YOUR TIRE TRACKS,
SAND FROM THE BEACH.
WE KNOW YOU WERE THERE, MAX.
HALF THE CARS IN THIS TOWN
USE THOSE TIRES, AGENT HOLLIS.
IT'S PRACTICALLY THE ONLY
BRAND THEY SELL HERE.
AS FOR THE SAND, HE COULD'VE PICKED
THAT UP ANYWHERE. YOU HAVE NOTHING.
MAX?
DO YOU REALLY
WANNA HURT SHANNON?
I DON'T WANT HER TO DIE.
THEN TELL US WHERE SHE IS.
- UP THE RANGER'S TRAIL
FOUR MILES.
- MAX.
FOUR MILES ON THE
SOUTHWEST OF TOWN,
ALONG KODIAK CREEK,
PAST JACKSON FALLS.
TURN WEST OFF THE TRAIL.
THREE HUNDRED PACES.
THERE'S AN OLD
TRAILER. I'M SORRY.
IT'S THE PLACE WE
FOUND MARY FLANNIGAN.
- EXACT SAME WORDS.
- HAVE YOU SEARCHED IT?
IT'S THE FIRST PLACE
WE TRIED. NOTHING.
[Thunder Rumbling]
[Man] GO AROUND BACK.
IT'S LIKE THE SHERIFF SAID.
WE SEARCHED THIS PLACE.
THERE'S NOTHING HERE.
[Max On Videotape] RANGER'S TRAIL,
FOUR MILES ON THE NORTHWEST OF TOWN.
FOLLOW KODIAK CREEK
PAST JACKSON FALLS.
TURN EAST... WEST.
TURN WEST OFF THE TRAIL.
GO 300 PACES.
THERE'S AN OLD TRAILER.
THAT'S WHERE SHE IS.
I'M SORRY.
[Dietz] TWENTY YEARS AGO,
SAME STORY WORD FOR WORD.
HE'S PLAYIN' WITH US.
HE'S GONNA WAIT
UNTIL SHANNON'S DEAD.
WHAT DID YOU FIND?
FLOWERS.
A WHOLE BUNCH OF WILD FLOWERS.
WHO WOULD DO THAT?
JARRET'S BEEN KICKING UP A
FUSS AT THE COUNTY LEVEL.
THEY HAVE NO EVIDENCE.
WE'RE GONNA HAVE
TO LET BRUNELLI GO.
THIS WAS THE LAST SIGHTING.
MARY FLANNIGAN WAS ON
HER WAY HOME FROM SCHOOL.
SHE NEVER MADE IT.
SCHOOL'S UP THROUGH THERE.
KIDS HAVE BEEN TAKING
THIS SHORTCUT FOR YEARS.
SO THIS PLACE AND THE PLACE
WHERE SHANNON WAS RIDING HER BIKE,
THE KIDNAPPER COULD HAVE
PREDICTED THEY'D BE THERE.
YEAH. BUT THE PLAYGROUND WHERE
CASEY PETERSEN WAS ATTACKED,
THE KIDNAPPER COULDN'T
HAVE KNOWN SHE'D BE THERE.
SHE HAD A FIGHT WITH HER FRIEND,
AND SHE RAN OFF ON HER OWN.
ISN'T THAT RIGHT?
IT'S PURE CHANCE.
YEAH, BUT SO?
THE SELECTION OF
VICTIMS IS DIFFERENT.
SO HE GOT CARELESS.
THAT'S HOW HE GOT CAUGHT.
WHAT'S MORE, FRANK,
BRUNELLI WAS HERE.
- WHY WEREN'T WE TOLD THIS?
- [Cell Phone Ringing]
- YEAH.
- SOMETHING ODD, FRANK.
I'M LOOKING AT THE MARY
FLANNIGAN CRIME SCENE PICS.
SHE WAS A HEALTHY TEN-YEAR-OLD.
SHE TOOK A LONG TIME DYING.
BUT THERE'S NO SIGN
SHE TRIED TO ESCAPE.
WHAT ARE YOU SAYING? SHE
WAS KEPT SOMEWHERE ELSE?
AND MOVED WHEN SHE WAS TOO
WEAK TO DO ANYTHING. IT'S POSSIBLE.
HOLD ON A SECOND. HOLD ON.
WHERE DID BRUNELLI USED TO LIVE?
FIND SOMETHING?
SAME MATERIAL
SHANNON WAS WEARING.
I'M PULLIN' HIM IN. EVEN
JARRET CAN'T GET AROUND THIS.
WELL. I'LL BE.
MR. BRUNELLI, WAS
THIS YOUR SON'S ROOM?
YES.
HE DID THIS WHEN HE WAS A KID.
- I HAD IT ALL PAINTED OVER.
- WHY DID YOU DO THAT?
WHY? WELL, IT'S KIDS' STUFF.
- HE WAS A KID, WASN'T HE?
- YEAH.
BUT NOT ALL HIS LIFE. HE
HAD TO GROW UP, DIDN'T HE?
NOW HE'S GONE AND
DONE IT OVER AGAIN.
HE'S GOTTEN IN HERE.
HOW IN THE HELL DID HE...
[Man Over Radio] SHERIFF?
BRUNELLI'S MOVED TO THE PARK.
I'M ON MY WAY.
LOOK, KEEP IT IN YOUR JACKET. WE
SHOULD BE ABLE TO HEAR YOU WELL ENOUGH.
ALL RIGHT. THAT'S GOOD ENOUGH.
ALL RIGHT. I'M READY.
WHY DID YOU APPROACH
CASEY 20 YEARS AGO?
SHE WAS ALONE. I...
I WANTED TO COMFORT HER.
ARE YOU LOOKING FOR HER NOW?
NOT HERE.
SHE'S TOO OLD FOR SWINGS.
THIRTY-ONE YEARS OLD NEXT WEEK.
HAVE YOU MADE HER A PRESENT?
I MIGHT HAVE DONE.
THEY'RE WATCHING
ME, AREN'T THEY?
- YEAH, THEY ARE.
- THEY WANT ME
TO LEAD THEM TO HER.
- WHO ARE WE TALKING ABOUT?
- SHANNON.
BUT YOU DON'T KNOW WHERE SHE IS.
[Frank Over Radio] YOU DON'T
KNOW WHERE SHE IS, DO YOU, MAX?
WHAT IS HE DOIN'?
YOU DIDN'T DO THIS.
YOU DIDN'T TAKE SHANNON.
W-WHY DO YOU SAY THAT?
I KNOW WHAT IT IS TO
SUFFER... TO FEEL GUILT.
YOU DO?
YEAH, I DO.
DO YOU KNOW WHAT IT IS
TO SUFFER FOR 20 YEARS?
TWENTY YEARS. LOOK.
THE LORD PUNISHED ME.
CHILD KILLER, JANUARY 14, 1980.
CHILD ABUSER, JUNE 6, 1983.
THEY TRIED TO KILL ME.
BUT THE LORD KEPT ME ALIVE
SO I COULD BE ABUSED IN TURN...
BY FOUR MEN, EIGHT MEN, TWELVE.
UNTIL I TRUSTED IN THE LORD AND
NO MAN'S HAND COULD HURT ME.
AND YOU KNOW
WHAT IT IS TO SUFFER?
I KNOW YOU WOULDN'T HURT THEM.
- HOW DO YOU KNOW?
- I KNOW WHAT I SEE.
[Sobbing]
I WILL REMEMBER
WHERE SHANNON IS.
WHAT? I WILL REMEMBER.
WILL YOU PLEASE TELL
ME WHAT YOU'RE DOING?
TRYIN' TO FIND OUT WHO
TOOK SHANNON McNULTY.
YOU THINK IT'S A COPYCAT,
DON'T YOU? NO. IT'S THE SAME MAN.
[Jarret] THAT SON OF A BITCH
WENT AFTER MY DAUGHTER!
JULIE'S THE ONE BRUNELLI WAS AFTER
IN THE WOODS BEHIND THE SCHOOL!
- DID HE DO ANYTHING
TO YOU, JULIE?
- DID HE SAY ANYTHING?
- YOU HAVE TO HELP US, JULIE.
- I DON'T... I DON'T KNOW.
HEY, HEY, HEY. IT'S OKAY.
NOW, YOU HAVE TO TRY, JULIE.
YOU MIGHT TELL US SOMETHING
THAT WILL HELP US FIND SHANNON.
DID HE SAY ANYTHING?
HE SAID, "DON'T BE AFRAID."
HEY.
HE GAVE YOU
SOMETHING, DIDN'T HE?
WHAT DID HE GIVE YOU, JULIE?
[Emma] WHY DID
THEY TAKE SO LONG?
IT HAPPENED SIX DAYS AGO.
JULIE KEPT IT QUIET.
WHY?
WHAT'S BRUNELLI DOING?
THE FLOWERS IN THE CABIN
WHERE MARY WAS FOUND,
THE DRAWINGS OF
THE GIRL IN THE SWING,
THE PAINTED ROOM.
IT'S LIKE HE CAME BACK
HERE WITH A PURPOSE.
REVISITING. MAKING HIS PEACE.
BUT WHY JULIE? SHE
WASN'T EVEN BORN.
WHAT HASN'T HE DONE YET? MMM.
WHERE HASN'T HE GONE?
CASEY. HE'LL GO TO HER.
IS SHE IN DANGER? NO, HE IS.

THERE'S AN OLD TRAILER.
THAT'S WHERE SHE IS.
I'M SORRY.
[Frank] IT'S JARRET. WHAT?
HE USED BRUNELLI. HE'S BEEN
USING HIM FROM THE BEGINNING.
I DON'T UNDERSTAND. HAVE
YOU HEARD OF FALSE MEMORIES?
CREATED MEMORIES?
IATROGENIC IMPLANTATION?
YEAH, BUT THEY'RE PSYCHOLOGICAL
TERMS USED IN THERAPY.
WE'RE TALKING ABOUT
BRUNELLI'S LAWYER.
HIS LAWYER'S THE
ONLY FRIEND HE HAD.
BRUNELLI TRUSTED HIM.
JARRET CREATED MEMORIES,
ENTIRE MEMORIES, BASED ON
BRUNELLI'S FEELINGS OF GUILT.
- GUILT FOR WHAT?
- WHAT DO WE KNOW BRUNELLI DID?
CASEY PETERSEN. HE ATTACKED HER.
NO, HE APPROACHED HER.
HE SAID HE WANTED
TO COMFORT HER.
SHE GOT SCARED, RAN AWAY.
THE NEXT THING HE KNOWS,
HE'S ARRESTED FOR KIDNAPPING.
AND THE ONLY MAN TO STEP FORWARD
TO DEFEND HIM WAS RANDALL JARRET.
YOU'RE SAYING JARRET
KILLED MARY FLANNIGAN...
AND THEN JUST WAITED 20 YEARS?
NO, HE DIDN'T WAIT. HE COULDN'T.
HIS OWN FAMILY?
JULIE ISN'T JARRET'S
ONLY DAUGHTER.
IS THAT WHY BRUNELLI
WENT TO JULIE? DID HE KNOW?
HE JUST RECOGNIZED...
FEELINGS OF PAIN
IN ANOTHER PERSON.
I WAS BLIND TO IT.
COME ON.
WHERE IS YOUR
HUSBAND, MRS. JARRET?
IT'S 2:00 IN THE MORNING. HE...
HE'S NOT HERE!
WHERE IS HE? HE-HE-HE TOOK
THAT MAN BRUNELLI TO THE HOSPITAL.
WHERE'S JULIE? ASLEEP.
YOUR OTHER DAUGHTER,
AMANDA... WHERE IS SHE?
- SHE WENT TO LIVE
WITH MY SISTER.
- WHY?
WILL YOU TELL US WHY?
- YOU HAVE A BASEMENT HERE?
- NO.
JULIE?
- GO BACK TO BED.
- HI, JULIE.
- DO YOU HAVE A BASEMENT?
- GO TO BED, JULIE.
IT'S OKAY. COME ON.
WHY? WHY ARE THEY ASKING THAT?
WHERE IS IT, JULIE?
AT THE BACK OF THE
YARD. STORM CELLAR.
CHECK THE STORM CELLAR.
GET A HOLD OF DIETZ.
- ARE YOU GOING TO THE HOSPITAL?
- THAT'S NOT WHERE
HE'S TAKIN' HIM.
YOU KNOW WHERE
SHE IS, DON'T YOU, MAX?
IN THE ROOM YOU PREPARED
FOR HER, JUST LIKE YOU PLANNED.
I DIDN'T. YOU PLANNED.
YOU IMAGINED.
YOU MADE YOUR LITTLE DRAWINGS.
AND SHE'S LYING UP
THERE WITH HER DRESS...
EXACTLY THE WAY YOU WANTED.
BUT SHE'S GETTING
VERY WEAK, MAX.
I WANNA SAVE HER.
THEN YOU MUST TELL THE TRUTH.
BUT I... I DON'T KNOW THE TRUTH.
YOU WANNA SAVE HER LIFE?
YOU'RE STILL TELLING LIES.
MAX, HOW WILL GOD FORGIVE YOU?
I TRIED TO SAVE THE LAST ONE,
BUT SHE WAS ALREADY DEAD.
BECAUSE YOU DELAYED, JUST LIKE
YOU'RE DELAYING RIGHT NOW! NO.
I'M... I'M GOING TO DEFEND YOU.
I WILL ASK THEM TO UNDERSTAND.
I WILL ASK FOR
THEIR FORGIVENESS.
DON'T YOU WANT TO BE FORGIVEN?
DON'T YOU WANNA LIFT THIS
WEIGHT FROM YOUR SOUL?
HUH?
NO!
JARRET!
YOU LIED! YOU LIED!
MAX!
SHE'S NOT DEAD.
GET SOME HELP. HI.
BRUNELLI'S HOUSE ON PINE.
[Man] YOU GOT A SUSPECT?
YES. RANDALL JARRET.
SEND AN AMBULANCE.
SHANNON WILL BE THERE.
[Max] HELP!
STOP! HEY!
[Sirens Wailing] [Woman
Over Police Radio, Indistinct]
UNIT EIGHT, WE'VE GOT THAT
EMERGENCY VEHICLE ABOUT TO LEAVE.
I TRIED TO SAVE HER.
YOU DID SAVE HER.
AM I FORGIVEN?

HOW COULD YOU? I
HATE YOU! I HATE YOU!

DAUGHTER, I'LL SHOOT HIM.
[Male Host] THAT MIGHT BE
KIND OF ILLEGAL, MR. PETERSEN.
[Mr. Petersen] WHAT'S ILLEGAL IS
LETTIN' HIM TERRORIZE OUR TOWN AGAIN.
THE PEOPLE WHO LET THIS
HAPPEN SHOULD BE ASHAMED.
[Host] WELL, WE DID ASK THE F.B.I.'s
EXPERT WITNESS, MR. FRANK BLACK,
TO EXPLAIN HOW IT
HAPPENED, BUT SADLY,
MR. BLACK DECLINED.
INSTEAD, WE'VE GOT
RANDALL JARRET,
THE MAN WHO DEFENDED
MAX BRUNELLI IN THE 1979 TRIAL.
MR. JARRET? MAX BRUNELLI HAS
SPENT THE LAST 20 YEARS IN HIS CELL.
HE KNOWS HE DID A TERRIBLE
THING. HE'S BEEN PUNISHED.
HE SERVED HIS
TIME UNDER THE LAW,
AND WHETHER YOU, ME OR ANYONE
ELSE LIKES IT, HE IS A FREE CITIZEN.
ALL HE WANTS IS A CHANCE.
[Bicycle Wheel Spinning]
[Gasps]
[Sobbing]
HEY.
IT'S OKAY.
IT'S JUST A BAD DREAM.
I WAS RUNNING, BUT
HE WAS ALWAYS THERE.
HE'S NOT THERE. HE'S NOT
ANYWHERE. GO BACK TO SLEEP.
DADDY, THAT'S WHERE HE IS.
HE WANTS TO KNOW WHY
YOU WON'T FORGIVE HIM.
[Telephone Ringing]
[Dietz] HER NAME IS
SHANNON McNULTY.
SHE JUST TURNED TEN YEARS OLD.
SHE GOT A NEW BIKE
FOR HER BIRTHDAY.
OFTEN USED TO COME HERE
AND RIDE AFTER SCHOOL.
HER PARENTS ENCOURAGED
IT. WHY WOULDN'T THEY?
IT'S A QUIET PLACE.
NOTHIN' EVER HAPPENS.
NO WITNESSES? NO.
HEAD THIS WAY.
THE TRACKS GO DOWN
HERE, OBVIOUSLY.
THIS WAY. I GOT PEOPLE IN
TOWN... I GOT IT. THANK YOU.
LOOKIN' THROUGH
EVERY EMPTY SPACE.
YEAH, WE GOT SOME PRETTY GOOD
CASTS. WE'RE WORKIN' THEM UP RIGHT NOW.
[Emma] AND WHAT ABOUT BRUNELLI?
[Dietz] HE'S IN A CELL
DENYING EVERYTHING.
SHANNON'S A FEISTY
LITTLE KID. WE'LL FIND HER.
[Pounding]
[Grunting]
[Sighs]
SHE'S TEN.
HER PARENTS' HEARTS ARE BROKEN.
ALL THEY WANT IS FOR
THEIR BABY TO COME HOME.
WHERE IS SHE, MAX?
IF SHE'S NOT HERE,
SHE'S WITH THE LORD.
AT THE MOMENT, IT'S
JUST A KIDNAPPING.
NOW, IT'S BAD, BUT
IT'S NOT TOO BAD.
NOT IF YOU HELP US NOW.
I WANNA BE FORGIVEN.
[Emma] PEOPLE WILL UNDERSTAND.
TELL US WHERE SHE IS, MAX. I DON'T WANNA
BE UNDERSTOOD. I WANNA BE FORGIVEN.
[Knock On Door]
- WHAT IS THIS?
- WE'RE JUST ASKIN' QUESTIONS.
WITHOUT A LAWYER? HAVE
THEY ROUGHED YOU UP?
YOU DID, DIDN'T YOU?
HAS HE BEEN CHARGED? NOT YET.
DO YOU HAVE ANY EVIDENCE
LINKING HIM TO THIS ABDUCTION?
I WANT THIS MAN RELEASED.
THIS IS A GROSS ABUSE
OF HIS CIVIL RIGHTS.
WE GOT A MISSING
TEN-YEAR-OLD GIRL.
AND UNTIL WE FIND HER, HIS
CIVIL RIGHTS CAN GO TO HELL.
IT'S ALREADY BEEN 48 HOURS.
ARE WE TOO LATE? NO.
MARY FLANNIGAN TOOK
NEARLY A WEEK TO DIE.
HE DOESN'T JUST KILL HIS
VICTIMS. HE JUST LETS THEM DIE.
HE EVADES FINAL RESPONSIBILITY.
FRANK? I'VE GOT SOMETHING.
WHAT?
SAINT JOSEPH.
THE HOLY FAMILY.
THERE'S SOMETHING ELSE HERE.
SOMETHING.
IT LOOKS LIKE... MM-HMM.
HE DREW ALL THAT WITH MATCHES.
HOW LONG WOULD THAT TAKE?
HE HAD 20 YEARS.
WE TOOK A CAST OF BRUNELLI'S
TIRES. GOODRICH ALL-TERRAIN.
SAME TIRES AS THE CRIME SCENE.
PLUS, ON BRUNELLI'S TIRES, SAND.
SAME AS AT THE CRIME
SCENE. IT'S NOT MUCH, BUT...
WE HAVE YOUR TIRE TRACKS,
SAND FROM THE BEACH.
WE KNOW YOU WERE THERE, MAX.
HALF THE CARS IN THIS TOWN
USE THOSE TIRES, AGENT HOLLIS.
IT'S PRACTICALLY THE ONLY
BRAND THEY SELL HERE.
AS FOR THE SAND, HE COULD'VE PICKED
THAT UP ANYWHERE. YOU HAVE NOTHING.
MAX?
DO YOU REALLY
WANNA HURT SHANNON?
I DON'T WANT HER TO DIE.
THEN TELL US WHERE SHE IS.
- UP THE RANGER'S TRAIL
FOUR MILES.
- MAX.
FOUR MILES ON THE
SOUTHWEST OF TOWN,
ALONG KODIAK CREEK,
PAST JACKSON FALLS.
TURN WEST OFF THE TRAIL.
THREE HUNDRED PACES.
THERE'S AN OLD
TRAILER. I'M SORRY.
IT'S THE PLACE WE
FOUND MARY FLANNIGAN.
- EXACT SAME WORDS.
- HAVE YOU SEARCHED IT?
IT'S THE FIRST PLACE
WE TRIED. NOTHING.
[Thunder Rumbling]
[Man] GO AROUND BACK.
IT'S LIKE THE SHERIFF SAID.
WE SEARCHED THIS PLACE.
THERE'S NOTHING HERE.
[Max On Videotape] RANGER'S TRAIL,
FOUR MILES ON THE NORTHWEST OF TOWN.
FOLLOW KODIAK CREEK
PAST JACKSON FALLS.
TURN EAST... WEST.
TURN WEST OFF THE TRAIL.
GO 300 PACES.
THERE'S AN OLD TRAILER.
THAT'S WHERE SHE IS.
I'M SORRY.
[Dietz] TWENTY YEARS AGO,
SAME STORY WORD FOR WORD.
HE'S PLAYIN' WITH US.
HE'S GONNA WAIT
UNTIL SHANNON'S DEAD.
WHAT DID YOU FIND?
FLOWERS.
A WHOLE BUNCH OF WILD FLOWERS.
WHO WOULD DO THAT?
JARRET'S BEEN KICKING UP A
FUSS AT THE COUNTY LEVEL.
THEY HAVE NO EVIDENCE.
WE'RE GONNA HAVE
TO LET BRUNELLI GO.
THIS WAS THE LAST SIGHTING.
MARY FLANNIGAN WAS ON
HER WAY HOME FROM SCHOOL.
SHE NEVER MADE IT.
SCHOOL'S UP THROUGH THERE.
KIDS HAVE BEEN TAKING
THIS SHORTCUT FOR YEARS.
SO THIS PLACE AND THE PLACE
WHERE SHANNON WAS RIDING HER BIKE,
THE KIDNAPPER COULD HAVE
PREDICTED THEY'D BE THERE.
YEAH. BUT THE PLAYGROUND WHERE
CASEY PETERSEN WAS ATTACKED,
THE KIDNAPPER COULDN'T
HAVE KNOWN SHE'D BE THERE.
SHE HAD A FIGHT WITH HER FRIEND,
AND SHE RAN OFF ON HER OWN.
ISN'T THAT RIGHT?
IT'S PURE CHANCE.
YEAH, BUT SO?
THE SELECTION OF
VICTIMS IS DIFFERENT.
SO HE GOT CARELESS.
THAT'S HOW HE GOT CAUGHT.
WHAT'S MORE, FRANK,
BRUNELLI WAS HERE.
- WHY WEREN'T WE TOLD THIS?
- [Cell Phone Ringing]
- YEAH.
- SOMETHING ODD, FRANK.
I'M LOOKING AT THE MARY
FLANNIGAN CRIME SCENE PICS.
SHE WAS A HEALTHY TEN-YEAR-OLD.
SHE TOOK A LONG TIME DYING.
BUT THERE'S NO SIGN
SHE TRIED TO ESCAPE.
WHAT ARE YOU SAYING? SHE
WAS KEPT SOMEWHERE ELSE?
AND MOVED WHEN SHE WAS TOO
WEAK TO DO ANYTHING. IT'S POSSIBLE.
HOLD ON A SECOND. HOLD ON.
WHERE DID BRUNELLI USED TO LIVE?
FIND SOMETHING?
SAME MATERIAL
SHANNON WAS WEARING.
I'M PULLIN' HIM IN. EVEN
JARRET CAN'T GET AROUND THIS.
WELL. I'LL BE.
MR. BRUNELLI, WAS
THIS YOUR SON'S ROOM?
YES.
HE DID THIS WHEN HE WAS A KID.
- I HAD IT ALL PAINTED OVER.
- WHY DID YOU DO THAT?
WHY? WELL, IT'S KIDS' STUFF.
- HE WAS A KID, WASN'T HE?
- YEAH.
BUT NOT ALL HIS LIFE. HE
HAD TO GROW UP, DIDN'T HE?
NOW HE'S GONE AND
DONE IT OVER AGAIN.
HE'S GOTTEN IN HERE.
HOW IN THE HELL DID HE...
[Man Over Radio] SHERIFF?
BRUNELLI'S MOVED TO THE PARK.
I'M ON MY WAY.
LOOK, KEEP IT IN YOUR JACKET. WE
SHOULD BE ABLE TO HEAR YOU WELL ENOUGH.
ALL RIGHT. THAT'S GOOD ENOUGH.
ALL RIGHT. I'M READY.
WHY DID YOU APPROACH
CASEY 20 YEARS AGO?
SHE WAS ALONE. I...
I WANTED TO COMFORT HER.
ARE YOU LOOKING FOR HER NOW?
NOT HERE.
SHE'S TOO OLD FOR SWINGS.
THIRTY-ONE YEARS OLD NEXT WEEK.
HAVE YOU MADE HER A PRESENT?
I MIGHT HAVE DONE.
THEY'RE WATCHING
ME, AREN'T THEY?
- YEAH, THEY ARE.
- THEY WANT ME
TO LEAD THEM TO HER.
- WHO ARE WE TALKING ABOUT?
- SHANNON.
BUT YOU DON'T KNOW WHERE SHE IS.
[Frank Over Radio] YOU DON'T
KNOW WHERE SHE IS, DO YOU, MAX?
WHAT IS HE DOIN'?
YOU DIDN'T DO THIS.
YOU DIDN'T TAKE SHANNON.
W-WHY DO YOU SAY THAT?
I KNOW WHAT IT IS TO
SUFFER... TO FEEL GUILT.
YOU DO?
YEAH, I DO.
DO YOU KNOW WHAT IT IS
TO SUFFER FOR 20 YEARS?
TWENTY YEARS. LOOK.
THE LORD PUNISHED ME.
CHILD KILLER, JANUARY 14, 1980.
CHILD ABUSER, JUNE 6, 1983.
THEY TRIED TO KILL ME.
BUT THE LORD KEPT ME ALIVE
SO I COULD BE ABUSED IN TURN...
BY FOUR MEN, EIGHT MEN, TWELVE.
UNTIL I TRUSTED IN THE LORD AND
NO MAN'S HAND COULD HURT ME.
AND YOU KNOW
WHAT IT IS TO SUFFER?
I KNOW YOU WOULDN'T HURT THEM.
- HOW DO YOU KNOW?
- I KNOW WHAT I SEE.
[Sobbing]
I WILL REMEMBER
WHERE SHANNON IS.
WHAT? I WILL REMEMBER.
WILL YOU PLEASE TELL
ME WHAT YOU'RE DOING?
TRYIN' TO FIND OUT WHO
TOOK SHANNON McNULTY.
YOU THINK IT'S A COPYCAT,
DON'T YOU? NO. IT'S THE SAME MAN.
[Jarret] THAT SON OF A BITCH
WENT AFTER MY DAUGHTER!
JULIE'S THE ONE BRUNELLI WAS AFTER
IN THE WOODS BEHIND THE SCHOOL!
- DID HE DO ANYTHING
TO YOU, JULIE?
- DID HE SAY ANYTHING?
- YOU HAVE TO HELP US, JULIE.
- I DON'T... I DON'T KNOW.
HEY, HEY, HEY. IT'S OKAY.
NOW, YOU HAVE TO TRY, JULIE.
YOU MIGHT TELL US SOMETHING
THAT WILL HELP US FIND SHANNON.
DID HE SAY ANYTHING?
HE SAID, "DON'T BE AFRAID."
HEY.
HE GAVE YOU
SOMETHING, DIDN'T HE?
WHAT DID HE GIVE YOU, JULIE?
[Emma] WHY DID
THEY TAKE SO LONG?
IT HAPPENED SIX DAYS AGO.
JULIE KEPT IT QUIET.
WHY?
WHAT'S BRUNELLI DOING?
THE FLOWERS IN THE CABIN
WHERE MARY WAS FOUND,
THE DRAWINGS OF
THE GIRL IN THE SWING,
THE PAINTED ROOM.
IT'S LIKE HE CAME BACK
HERE WITH A PURPOSE.
REVISITING. MAKING HIS PEACE.
BUT WHY JULIE? SHE
WASN'T EVEN BORN.
WHAT HASN'T HE DONE YET? MMM.
WHERE HASN'T HE GONE?
CASEY. HE'LL GO TO HER.
IS SHE IN DANGER? NO, HE IS.

[Max On Videotape] FOUR MILES
ON THE NORTHWEST OF TOWN.
FOLLOW KODIAK CREEK
PAST JACKSON FALLS.
TURN EAST... WEST.
GO ON.
GO ON. PAST JACKSON FALLS.
TURN EAST... WEST.
GO ON. TURN WEST OFF THE TRAIL.
GO 300 PACES.
THERE'S AN OLD TRAILER.
THAT'S WHERE SHE IS.
I'M SORRY.
[Frank] IT'S JARRET. WHAT?
HE USED BRUNELLI. HE'S BEEN
USING HIM FROM THE BEGINNING.
I DON'T UNDERSTAND. HAVE
YOU HEARD OF FALSE MEMORIES?
CREATED MEMORIES?
IATROGENIC IMPLANTATION?
YEAH, BUT THEY'RE PSYCHOLOGICAL
TERMS USED IN THERAPY.
WE'RE TALKING ABOUT
BRUNELLI'S LAWYER.
HIS LAWYER'S THE
ONLY FRIEND HE HAD.
BRUNELLI TRUSTED HIM.
JARRET CREATED MEMORIES,
ENTIRE MEMORIES, BASED ON
BRUNELLI'S FEELINGS OF GUILT.
- GUILT FOR WHAT?
- WHAT DO WE KNOW BRUNELLI DID?
CASEY PETERSEN. HE ATTACKED HER.
NO, HE APPROACHED HER.
HE SAID HE WANTED
TO COMFORT HER.
SHE GOT SCARED, RAN AWAY.
THE NEXT THING HE KNOWS,
HE'S ARRESTED FOR KIDNAPPING.
AND THE ONLY MAN TO STEP FORWARD
TO DEFEND HIM WAS RANDALL JARRET.
YOU'RE SAYING JARRET
KILLED MARY FLANNIGAN...
AND THEN JUST WAITED 20 YEARS?
NO, HE DIDN'T WAIT. HE COULDN'T.
HIS OWN FAMILY?
JULIE ISN'T JARRET'S
ONLY DAUGHTER.
IS THAT WHY BRUNELLI
WENT TO JULIE? DID HE KNOW?
HE JUST RECOGNIZED...
FEELINGS OF PAIN
IN ANOTHER PERSON.
I WAS BLIND TO IT.
COME ON.
WHERE IS YOUR
HUSBAND, MRS. JARRET?
IT'S 2:00 IN THE MORNING. HE...
HE'S NOT HERE!
WHERE IS HE? HE-HE-HE TOOK
THAT MAN BRUNELLI TO THE HOSPITAL.
WHERE'S JULIE? ASLEEP.
YOUR OTHER DAUGHTER,
AMANDA... WHERE IS SHE?
- SHE WENT TO LIVE
WITH MY SISTER.
- WHY?
WILL YOU TELL US WHY?
- YOU HAVE A BASEMENT HERE?
- NO.
JULIE?
- GO BACK TO BED.
- HI, JULIE.
- DO YOU HAVE A BASEMENT?
- GO TO BED, JULIE.
IT'S OKAY. COME ON.
WHY? WHY ARE THEY ASKING THAT?
WHERE IS IT, JULIE?
AT THE BACK OF THE
YARD. STORM CELLAR.
CHECK THE STORM CELLAR.
GET A HOLD OF DIETZ.
- ARE YOU GOING TO THE HOSPITAL?
- THAT'S NOT WHERE
HE'S TAKIN' HIM.
YOU KNOW WHERE
SHE IS, DON'T YOU, MAX?
IN THE ROOM YOU PREPARED
FOR HER, JUST LIKE YOU PLANNED.
I DIDN'T. YOU PLANNED.
YOU IMAGINED.
YOU MADE YOUR LITTLE DRAWINGS.
AND SHE'S LYING UP
THERE WITH HER DRESS...
EXACTLY THE WAY YOU WANTED.
BUT SHE'S GETTING
VERY WEAK, MAX.
I WANNA SAVE HER.
THEN YOU MUST TELL THE TRUTH.
BUT I... I DON'T KNOW THE TRUTH.
YOU WANNA SAVE HER LIFE?
YOU'RE STILL TELLING LIES.
MAX, HOW WILL GOD FORGIVE YOU?
I TRIED TO SAVE THE LAST ONE,
BUT SHE WAS ALREADY DEAD.
BECAUSE YOU DELAYED, JUST LIKE
YOU'RE DELAYING RIGHT NOW! NO.
I'M... I'M GOING TO DEFEND YOU.
I WILL ASK THEM TO UNDERSTAND.
I WILL ASK FOR
THEIR FORGIVENESS.
DON'T YOU WANT TO BE FORGIVEN?
DON'T YOU WANNA LIFT THIS
WEIGHT FROM YOUR SOUL?
HUH?
NO!
JARRET!
YOU LIED! YOU LIED!
MAX!
SHE'S NOT DEAD.
GET SOME HELP. HI.
BRUNELLI'S HOUSE ON PINE.
[Man] YOU GOT A SUSPECT?
YES. RANDALL JARRET.
SEND AN AMBULANCE.
SHANNON WILL BE THERE.
[Max] HELP!
STOP! HEY!
[Sirens Wailing] [Woman
Over Police Radio, Indistinct]
UNIT EIGHT, WE'VE GOT THAT
EMERGENCY VEHICLE ABOUT TO LEAVE.
I TRIED TO SAVE HER.
YOU DID SAVE HER.
AM I FORGIVEN?
AM I?
I DON'T UNDERSTAND! I DON'T!
LOOK AT ME, DADDY! JUST LOOK AT ME!
HOW COULD YOU? I
HATE YOU! I HATE YOU!
I HATE YOU, DADDY!
LOOK AT ME, DADDY!
I DON'T... I DON'T
UNDERSTAND! I DON'T!
JUST LOOK AT ME! I HATE YOU!
JUST LOOK AT ME! I HATE
