00:00You know, this is the life.
00:04Fresh air.
00:06Stiff breeze.
00:08And you know what they say,
00:09the best thing about fishing isn't what you catch.
00:11Right, right. It's, uh, it's keeping good company.
00:14Yeah. Yeah.
00:16And Rex certainly is the best company.
00:19Oh, well, at least one of us caught something.
00:21Right, buddy?
00:25He looks hungry.
00:27Yeah, so am I.
00:29What do you say, burger and a pint?
00:31Yeah, I'm down.
00:32Let's do it.
00:33All right.
00:35Let's go.
00:35Let's go.
00:50Look, Gary, I get it.
00:53Things haven't been going your way.
00:55But you don't have to let me go.
00:57One thing busting after another.
01:00Winch motor, bilge pump.
01:02Then the fuel leaks.
01:04Just no sense in it.
01:05You always sell the old tub to me, right?
01:07My family could lend me the cash if the price is right.
01:11I'm never selling the rusty runner, Declan.
01:14It was my dad's boat.
01:16It was my dad's boat.
01:16He left it to me, trusted me with it.
01:19And when I find out who's messing with me, everything's gonna turn around.
01:23I get it.
01:25For sure.
01:26No problem.
01:27One more run together, then I'll find other work, Gary.
01:41Dad, I'll catch whoever's doing this to your boat.
02:01Sonny side fish plant, how can I direct your call?
02:11excuse me sorry excuse me
02:15hey there brianna chuck you heard from gary the last few days she got out of the hospital yesterday
02:22ticker's been giving me trouble again he took the rusty runner out days ago
02:26he's not returning my calls where's your brother brianna he's not your kid maybe leave the grown
02:30man alone let me know if you hear from him will do
02:41i'm gonna be out in the water before the sun gets up something's tangled in this net help me out
02:48will
02:48you yeah dang it what is that
03:17well bit of an early one this morning yeah nothing likes the air to get you woken up
03:22reminds me of when i was a kid heading out on the water at first light
03:25yeah i'm more of a coffee while i scroll sort of person what are we looking at a fisherman found
03:30a body tangled in a net young male no signs of foul play sarah fill you in on the details
03:35any idea how long he's been on the water yeah based on visual decomposition time of death was
03:40approximately 48 hours ago ultimate cause may have been drowning but the victim had a serious skull
03:45fracture you sure didn't strike his head in the fall land in the sea not with the addition of
03:49defensive wounds on both arms appear to be from the same weapon so he fought back and lost
03:55jerry francis 32 years old yeah he's a commercial fisherman owns a boat called the rusty runner
04:02wait so he didn't work for a larger company
04:04mid-shore vessels like this are almost always family run little independent businesses making
04:09their living off the sea one run at a time i thought you were a military man
04:12my grandfather worked his own boat out of halifax his whole life fishing whatever was in season
04:17from lobster to cod but not without the captain so uh if gary was killed right here two days ago
04:24where's his boat yeah you know i'll contact the coast guard see if the rusty runner had a gps
04:36what have you found there racks something in his ear here yeah
04:49what is that stone not sure it's covered in an oily substance that whole batch
05:02that's curious i'll have a closer look back at the lab
05:12weird travels fast in the fishing community oh this is never easy i haven't heard from him since
05:19friday i was asking around is that unusual for your brother to be out of touch for that long
05:26yeah gary's out of cell range on the water and uh i took a temp gig in gander so i
05:33haven't been
05:34around but you were concerned enough to come back and look for him my brother had been having a hard
05:40time lately i started to worry when he he didn't even text he'd always let me know when he was
05:46back
05:46what do you mean by a hard time some money trouble the boat was breaking down a lot just
05:53just little things that added up broken pumps clogged filters
06:00gary seemed to think that someone was messing with him somehow messing with him he thought the
06:07things going wrong weren't accidents he never laid it out i thought he was just getting his own head
06:15like paranoid but now i i wish i'd listened
06:21i know this is hard rihanna but can you tell me who might have wanted to harm your brother
06:27someone who might take the rusty runner the boat's gone too that was my dad's boat
06:35listen anything you could tell us might might help
06:38uh there was this guy uh declan and uh gary mentioned he kept trying to buy the boat
06:57what are you at this is just got back from my uncle's boat up on the northern peninsula the past
07:05few
07:05days heard the news this morning so the boat's gone too that's right uh word is you were interested in
07:11buying the rusty runner it's just all talk uh can't afford to pay my own rent as is
07:16and a tub like that's not worth going over when was the last time you saw gary six days ago
07:23friday
07:24uh we went for a pint after our last run he bought since he was letting me go and then
07:29we both headed home
07:31gary cut you loose it happens right not the first job i lost
07:39can you think of anyone who may have had a grudge against him you know what's messing with his boat
07:44maybe gary could get crazy that way reading into things uh but there was this one guy who's that
07:51wayne somebody baggins need an extra hand today gary earrings running i got it wayne hangs around
08:00the harbor trading odd jobs or cash or fish i heard two of them in a screaming match a couple
08:05weeks ago
08:06know where i can find wayne hangs out at the fog and fleet a lot a lot of young fishers
08:11do
08:12cheap as fish and chips in town thanks for the tip come on rex what's up with your dog you
08:20mean the uh
08:21highly trained police canine it seems he's interested in whatever's in your fish pan here do you mind
08:26opening it up sure no problem you said you were fishing the northern peninsula isn't cod season closed up
08:38there depends what area what kind of license what kind of boat these are legit
08:44well rex is alerting to something so we'll take a closer look and our pathologist will figure out what
08:49it is so you're just gonna take them uh-huh
09:07you found a microchip in declan's cod not the kind you put in pets the department of fishery
09:13sometimes implants acoustic tags and cause so they can track their migration and survival rates
09:17rex has been trained to alert to the triphenylphosphine oxide and any microchip
09:22yeah i'm still kind of shocked that he was able to detect that over the smell of the fish itself
09:26could you use that to investigate declan's alibi says he was up in the northern peninsula over the
09:32last few days absolutely i'll reach out to the department of fisheries get their tracking info
09:36okay meanwhile i have the results of the autopsy time of death remains two days ago so sometime tuesday
09:45but as you can see cerebral hemorrhage was deemed the sole cause of death so gary wasn't breathing by the
09:51time he hit the water exactly also organic fibers were found embedded in his scalp from the murder
09:57weapon uh presumably i'm having them analyzed that might help identify the object that caused the
10:02death blow and the defensive wounds okay what about the uh rock that rex found in the victim's ear
10:08that is a bit of a puzzler it turns out it's a piece of crystallized salt covered in fish oils
10:13sea salt from being in the ocean wait no no it's just common rock salt we've got lodged in the
10:19canal
10:19before gary's body ever entered the water but how did a guy end up with oily rock salt in his
10:24ear
10:24while fighting off an assailant i have no idea it's also not the only puzzling thing something's
10:32bothering you well i i've seen many many bodies that have been submerged in water for varying degrees
10:39of time but there's something different about this one different how well that's the problem i i can't
10:45put my finger on it i'll just have to keep fishing for answers
10:51you know clearly been hanging around jesse too much uh yeah so our victim was having trouble with
10:59his boat thought someone was undermining him and then wound up floating in the harbor dead
11:04with a piece of salt in his ear plus his boat's gone yeah it has been for a while the
11:08harbor authority
11:09logged the rusty runner coming in last friday gary's last run with declan yeah but the thing is it was
11:13never logged going back out again so we need to find out exactly when the rusty runner left and where
11:18it is right now in the meantime coast guard confirmed that the vessel did not have a gps so they
11:23put the
11:24equivalent of a bolo out meanwhile the pub should be open by now come on rex seems a little bit
11:30early
11:30for a cold one there mark yeah not to mention that you're on a homicide investigation okay declin the
11:35deckhand said he witnessed an argument between gary and a regular named wayne i'm gonna see if there's
11:40any truth to that sure come on you and that boat you held it against him you never let it
11:53go just
11:53calm down brianna you're overwrought didn't mean to upset you one more word from you wayne and i swear
11:58step back sjpd what's going on here uh we're uh having a little dispute she's just upset about her
12:05brother i don't take it serious you think wayne here had something to do with your brother's death
12:14it's like he said i'm i'm just upset come on dear let's get you inside fish and chips is on
12:21me
12:24what do you got racks it's your truck wayne with all the rock salt in the back
12:52i swear the blood is from cleaning fish what's the big deal with salt
12:57i salt my own cod sometimes is that a crime we found a piece of rock salt in the victim's
13:02body
13:03wayne did gary get that when you threw him in the back of your truck
13:07i swear i had nothing to do with gary's death we known each other our whole lives gary's deckhand
13:13says he saw the two of you arguing recently need an extra hand today gary earrings running
13:19i got it wayne heard two of them in screaming match a couple weeks ago declan said that
13:26that guy says a lot of stuff that you can't take to the bank what about brianna
13:31you held it against him you never let it go just calm down brianna you're overwrought me and brianna um
13:41we were engaged years ago uh the dream was that we would be running the boat together two of us
13:48raising kids and uh then her dad died suddenly and left the rusty runner to her brother malona
13:57was brianna bitter about that being cut out no ancient history brianna loved gary and
14:05she wouldn't hurt anybody let alone her brother that still doesn't explain why she was angry at you
14:12you're barking up the wrong tree detective declan is the guy you should be looking at
14:17he's a real sleeving if you ask me but declan has an alibi and so does brianna where were you
14:25two
14:25days ago we i was fixing an engine on a trawler in witless bay go ahead and check
14:38okay hey how was the pub lively it seems that wayne and brianna are old flames one time they
14:45wanted her dad spoke for themselves he claims that that's all ancient history now yeah but where was
14:50he on tuesday when gary was killed well he says he was working on a trawler up in witless bay
14:54but he and brianna are hiding something i mean she was screaming at him when i found him at the
14:58pub
14:58all right so brianna claims that she was in gander on tuesday right and then declan says that he was
15:04in the northern peninsula and wayne says that he was in witless bay do we have any suspect who was
15:10near the scene of the crime when our victim was killed well a local fisher claims he saw the rusty
15:14runner leave foxtrap harbor friday night the day of gary's last run uh-huh and another fisherman says
15:20he saw that the boat never came back and hasn't been seen since so the boat left the harbor six
15:25days ago
15:25but gary was killed two days ago where was he in between somewhere else on the boat yeah i feel
15:30like
15:30i'm channeling sarah here there's something off about this case but i can't put my finger on it
15:34okay let's start by taking a closer look at the last day that gary was seen alive okay so we
15:39know that
15:39gary and declan went out onto the water and then came back and went to the pub yeah what about
15:44in
15:44between between work and a pint fishers stop on the way home to sell their catch at a fish plant
15:49can
15:50you call his sister to see where that might be yeah yeah something is definitely off
16:01at sunny side we buy directly from the fishers fresh off our wharf process it inside and sell it
16:07wholesale it's quite the operation and i'm in charge of keeping it running smoothly so what does
16:12this have to do with a man found dead in foxtrap harbor so gary francis now his sister believes he
16:18sold you a load of fish here last friday the last day that he was seen alive can't say i
16:22recognize
16:23him really even though he sold fish right here i'm rarely on the dock chained to my desk but i
16:30can
16:30check our records for you perfect what about these two that's declan he worked with gary and uh
16:35wayne had in the past and wayne i know he works here at the plant on and off last time
16:40would have been
16:41uh about a week ago okay can you send me the exact date of course uh tanya my partner seems
16:48to be
16:48alerting to that man uh may i go ahead is that salt yes we go through thousands of pounds a
16:57year use it
16:58for everything from de-icing the wharf to seasoning a can of salmon what about surveillance footage can you
17:06uh send that over to me absolutely amazing once i check with the owners i'm just the manager i don't
17:12want to lose my job in this economy of course do your thing
17:24donovan what do you got well i've got good news and bad news the lab confirmed that the blood in
17:28wayne's truck was in fact fish blood so if i had to cut him loose okay and the good news
17:33the coast
17:34guard found the rusty runner adrift about 30 miles offshore they're towing it back to fox trap harbor as
17:39we speak we're on our way
17:49coming aboard hey we're just getting started here no evidence of a struggle but after being adrift at sea
17:58any blood on the deck would likely have been washed away so we can't rule out the rusty runner is
18:02the place
18:02where gary may have been killed oh here oh what is this salt from a sunny side fish plant okay
18:10well
18:11i'll see if it's a match to the crystal found on the victim but that won't prove the salt was
18:14from there
18:15i mean common salt is common where's jesse checking the hold that's been stewing at sea for days and
18:23that's a fun job okay guys i just want you to know that the hold is clear of fish but
18:30it is teeming
18:30with stench i'll head back down holding my nose this time oh that's disgusting oh it stinks
18:37it smells like a foot rex seems interested in something over here oh yeah so the fibers we found
18:42in gary's head wound turn out to be wood deeply suffused with various aquatic flora and fauna okay so a
18:49buoy could have been the murder water the triangular shape fits the wound pattern but look he's not
18:53alerting to anything well i think i know why you see that last high no last buoy likely floating out
18:59at sea never to be found so maybe gary was killed on some vessel but then how did he end
19:05up in the
19:05harbor when the boat's 30 miles out to sea let's uh let's check the bridge okay come on reps
19:14you okay down there jesse no throttle's engaged the boat's still in gear okay so the boat was in
19:22motion until it ran out of fuel so what happened to the person driving it well maybe someone pointed
19:30it out to sea and just let her go didn't care if the boat just sank out there or maybe
19:34wanted her to
19:35i mean evidence at the bottom of the ocean is usually no evidence at all
19:44why does it wreck
19:50what's written on it it looks like dates and numbers
19:55gary told people that he thought someone was messing with him could have been tracking something
20:01let's see what jesse makes of these okay okay i'm gonna go back to the pub and see how brianna
20:05reacts to the return of the rusty runner it seems the old girl is carrying a lot of other people's
20:11baggage
20:22just so glad the rusty runners back safe and sound here you go folks not in the house chuck
20:28you didn't have to do that no it's fine you both deserve it just give me a shout if you
20:32need anything
20:35us i was uh i was kind of surprised that you wanted to meet here uh considering it's a tight
20:41community we're all intertwined yeah i've known chuck forever he used to fish with my dad back in the day
20:47on the rusty runner before gary got old enough to help and took over for him that's when chuck bought
20:55this place between you and me i don't think he's happy here well my grandfather was never happy ashore
21:02either eyes always on the horizon what about you um any regrets what do you mean wayne said there's
21:11uh history between you two and the boat that you were upset when your father left it to gary
21:18at the time but we worked it out oh how's that gary gave me part ownership for good or ill
21:26but there's
21:28a downside to that profits aren't big but responsibilities are is there something you're
21:37not telling me brianna what what did wayne say to you earlier that upset you wayne doesn't know
21:43what he's talking about but it was about gary we've got evidence that rusty runner leaving harbor
21:51unregistered in the middle of the night as part owner what do you know about that
21:59gary would never do anything outside the law if that's what you're implying it wasn't
22:05but you think he could have i'm starting to think i need a lawyer
22:16second thought i think i'll bring you a check
22:26i had a look at those numbers that sarah sent me last night now the first column they're dates
22:31but the second they seem to be a log of engine hours engine hours that's uh that's a bose equivalent
22:36of the odometer in a car oh your grandfather taught you well seems that gary was tracking a
22:42discrepancy now the boat it had more clicks than it should have on those specific days
22:46could be that wasn't the first time the rusty runner left the harbor in the night undocumented
22:50brianna sure planned up the mention of midnight runs still more questions and answers something's got
22:56a break soon yeah
23:04oh i knew it looked off
23:09wow someone was in early yeah i couldn't sleep insomnia alibis everybody's got one yeah i think that's the
23:19problem all our suspects have motive but no opportunity somewhere in witless bay gander and
23:27the northern peninsula at the time of gary's death there's something off about this case
23:33i think i figured it out the answer to everything ruptured membranes excuse me even i don't get that
23:41it means that gary didn't die on tuesday like we thought he died much earlier maybe even as early as
23:46the
23:46previous friday how is that possible because gary's body was frozen frozen specifically flash frozen
24:04i'm still trying to wrap my head around it gary was frozen how could they miss that on the autopsy
24:10well flash freezing the process of solidifying something almost instantly is designed to limit
24:15cellular damage right so that fish or any foods texture and appearance remain very close to fresh
24:20when thawed same hell true for gary's remains he looked fresher than he was right which led you in
24:25the corner to conclude that his time of death was tuesday when tuesday was actually time of defrost
24:30exactly gary most likely died days earlier probably soon after he was last seen alive
24:36last friday the night his boat was secreted out of the harbor any chance the sunnyside fish plant
24:41has one of these flash freezing facilities even better it looks like they have a process that
24:47lowers the freezing solution far below zero with the addition of salt just like the piece rex found
24:51lodged in gary's ear covered in fish oil right okay contact the owners of sunnyside let's bring tanya
24:57in for questioning yeah let's see what else we can dig up on her she claimed that she didn't recognize
25:02gary but he sold there for years i'll send a forensics team to their freezing facility oh but
25:08the inside of a fish plant is kept as sterile as an operating room sorry rex
25:14no dogs allowed i know okay so it looks like the flash freezing melted away all the alibis
25:21get down to the pub jesse see what you can find out okay let's start with wayne
25:30so now you want to know where i was last friday yeah case is evolving where were you the last
25:36time
25:36you saw gary leave the pub uh i went home i slept i worked to shift at sunnyside the next
25:43day other
25:44than that i was here the usual okay well sunnyside is seeming more and more connected to the crime now
25:49wayne and you had access to it and you had an argument with gary and another one with his
25:54sister i mean i know you say it's ancient history but from what i'm hearing these emotions seem pretty
26:00raw i said something i shouldn't have said that's all what was that look wayne the guy you've known
26:08your whole life has been cut down in his prime do we really need to bring you in again
26:17one night a couple weeks ago i saw the rusty runner heading out in the middle of the night
26:23and i know that gary was having some problems okay you thought he was up to something cod quotas are
26:30strict every trip has limits inspectors they log everything but if a boat slips out in the dark
26:40has a buyer doesn't ask questions you do them out so you think he was poaching and you confronted
26:48him on it yeah he wouldn't give me a straight answer he told me i was talking garbage what'd you
26:51say to
26:52that i reminded him what happens to fishers in this town who take what they're not supposed to take
27:01he almost ripped my head off i wouldn't have said anything normally but i was just trying to look
27:05out for brianna yeah and how's that the department of fisheries can find you for poaching put you in
27:12jail and take your boat and that boat is partly brianna's even now if they prove that the rusty runner
27:19was involved brianna loses everything okay is that why she was so angry with you i told her what i
27:28thought
27:29what was going on with her brother thing is how can i be so sure that it wasn't you taking
27:36that boat out
27:38and covering your tracks by blaming a dead man
27:43because i would take my own life before i harmed brianna
27:49how come you never mentioned you work part-time with sunny side
27:52i work part-time everywhere doesn't everybody money's tight all over
28:01the owners have instructed me to do whatever i can to assist in your investigation but the idea
28:09that someone was frozen at our plant is preposterous but you don't deny that gary francis and rusty runner
28:16were at sunnyside the last day that he was seen alive well in fact i can confirm it our records
28:22show that
28:22gary sold sunnyside fish on many occasions what about the surveillance footage i requested over
28:2824 hours ago delivered as we speak but i have the pertinent footage right here
28:40gary and his boat in one piece sailing off for foxtrap harbor
28:48but you have a flash freezing facility that uses the saltwater method and your forensic team is there
28:53right now but i have no doubt they will find nothing linking your unfortunate victim or his
29:00remains to the inside of our facilities well perhaps you can answer this question um does the plant
29:08operate at night no not for years we've been down to one day shift since the cod stocks collapsed in
29:13the
29:1390s so if somebody wanted to sneak in after hours there'd be no one to interfere assuming that
29:19person had access of course what are you implying we looked into your financial situation tanya
29:30you had a six-figure debt six months ago spread across half a dozen online gambling sites
29:36and now it's gone can you explain that
29:42if you're implying that i'm involved in some sort of illegal activity then i'm afraid this interview
29:50is done i think i'll let the company's lawyers assist you from here on out
30:07it's okay rex she's free to go
30:15so wayne claims he saw the rusty runner going out at midnight thought that gary was poaching yeah and
30:22then he told brianna and she flew off the handle at him she got pretty defensive of me too said
30:26that
30:26gary would never do anything illegal yeah but could it be that he was selling tanya an illegal catch
30:31under the table after hours and then somehow something went wrong but what if it wasn't him
30:36i mean gary was tracking a discrepancy in his engine hours
30:40maybe he caught on to the fact that someone was using his boat without his knowledge
30:44heading out at midnight to poach fish
30:47okay okay okay okay but look i mean katania really pay off for gambling debts by
30:55selling black market cod actually i think it's more than that i want to show you something okay
31:01what's what's with all these trays well it was bothering me that rex was somehow able to smell the
31:06microchip buried inside the codfish you got from declan what's up with your dog i mean don't don't
31:13get me wrong rex is amazing but to pick out a trace that faint over the smell of fish yeah
31:19it
31:19surprised me too yeah so i thought i'd try it out for myself rex come here check
31:30that's an alert okay so this is a microchip just by itself so he can detect it now rex
31:47check codfish from the grocery store he didn't alert with a chip inside it he couldn't even smell it at
31:55all
31:57okay so why was he alerting to the cod found at declans this is my point just wait rex track
32:14and this time he alerts this is the cod mark you got from declan complete with the original microchip
32:22inside so if he couldn't smell the chip through the fish why is he learning now exactly a mystery
32:29until i swabbed the surface of the cod and found trace amounts of fentanyl fentanyl on a fish yeah
32:35it's not so crazy actually it's a decent way to hide drugs from the inspectors so the rusty runner
32:40wasn't bringing in illegal fish at night is bringing in illegal drugs why not both i just heard back from
32:47the
32:47department of fisheries this morning this cod was taken from a closed area just 30 miles offshore of
32:52st john's not the north peninsula like declan said okay all roads seem to lead to declan bring him in
33:00no you got it
33:12hey declan
33:13hey declan
33:18declan stop
33:22SJPD
33:27no you got it
33:32caught in your own net seems fitting
33:47so declan ran and climbed and almost slipped the net so maybe he knew that we'd found the traces
33:54of fentanyl on the confiscated codfish or heard his manufactured alibi had taken on water that trip to
34:00the northern peninsula looks pretty convenient yeah but the bottom line is he lied about where he found
34:04that cod he wanted to buy gary's boat maybe using it to poach as a way to raise the cash
34:08well who
34:09else knows the way around the rusty runner better than him but how does the fentanyl play into this
34:14yeah not to mention murder and flash freezing wayne said that you couldn't take much of whatever
34:19declan says at face value yeah well it looks like you better start fishing for the truth
34:24now you too
34:28i know i shouldn't have run but i heard you yelling police and people at the pub were talking
34:32about gary may be poaching we know you were poaching well never in my life way beyond that
34:37the fish that my canine alerted to at your place has tested positive for drugs what gary suspected
34:43that someone was sneaking that rusty runner out at night did he figure out that it was you did he
34:47hide in the hole to catch you red-handed no you got this all wrong did he surprise you when
34:51you were
34:52offloading at sunnyside where you killed him with a buoy rather than face charges then froze him and
34:57got yourself an alibi this is insane i got no idea how you found drugs on that fish i just
35:03bought it
35:03cheap is all i didn't ask questions bought it cheap from who chuck sells it under the table
35:11i don't know where he gets it here you go folks not in the house chuck you didn't have to
35:17do that
35:17no it's fine you both deserve it just give me a shout if you need anything else but he's got
35:22the
35:22cheapest fish and chips in town okay so i asked the department of fisheries to track the microchip
35:31found in the cod after it left the water they thought it was a pretty weird request i bet what
35:36did
35:36they say they sent me this okay so the cod confiscated from declan covered in fentanyl was caught
35:43offshore illegally then transferred to the sunnyside fish plant then onto the foggin fleet so chuck took
35:48the rusty runner on drug runs yeah and picked up a load of cod on the way to freeze along
35:52with it
35:53and brianna mentioned that he'd worked the boat with her dad and hated working the bar so he found
35:57a way out but he needs someone with access to the fish plant send uniforms for tanya and let's bring
36:04this chuck character in you got it rex
36:25back again got new ways to smear my late brother i'm looking for chuck he's not here
36:32i had to go back to the hospital did me the favor of throwing me a few shifts back to
36:38the
36:38hospital yeah he was there about a week ago around when gary went missing well i bet they didn't
36:44find anything wrong though it makes for a great alibi what did chuck need an alibi for to freeze the
36:50body and shift the time of death they froze my brother
37:16what's going on what's he found if i'm right the reason your brother was killed
37:32the hospital confirms they admitted chuck three days ago he was claiming chest pains
37:37he's manufactured alibi while he shifted gary's time of death yeah but he's not there now okay
37:42uniforms at sunnyside tanya disappeared mid-shift but the office confirmed that chuck's bought fish
37:48from her for years and there's also this surveillance footage from sunnyside wharf against the dates from
37:53gary's gary's engine hours list nothing no i'll check the time stamp
38:03hours have been deleted yeah to hide the rusty runners unloading presumably on every one of those
38:08same nights but look at this they missed one frame from over a month ago tanya and chuck headed for
38:15his
38:15truck full of frozen fish and drugs no doubt and following the pattern of the dates that gary had written
38:20down next truck runs tonight i mean they'll be expecting someone in the rusty runner to come
38:25rendezvous with them offshore now if only we could get the lab results on chuck's truck it would be a
38:29full circle fish oil seawater and fentanyl okay let's get a bolo on tanya and chuck okay i'll get the
38:38ferries and airports covered do that but there's another surefire way off this island my money's on
38:43chuck heading to the rusty runner let's go rex there's chuck headed for the boat
38:55chuck head for the boat
38:56rex hold on wait wait for me
39:00chuck stay where you are
39:11oh please
39:14rex
39:29rusty runners the sjpd return to the war ghost guard has been notified you have nowhere to go repeat

40:15this is the coast guard the rusty runner has throttled down
40:22good job partner now hold him until uniforms can get on the boat
40:43next time wait for me okay
40:45i notified the coast guard gave the exact location the illegal cod was harvested from so they'll be able to
40:53find the drug suppliers
41:00nothing to say for yourself
41:14it was really chuck yeah
41:17i can't believe it
41:18lucky i didn't get word of it before you did
41:21say for where he's going
41:22you know we should be able to release the rusty runner back to you later this week i guess
41:27this boat meant everything to gary and my dad
41:30my brother died defending it
41:33i'm here to work it for you anytime
41:36it's your call
41:38i'd like that
41:41i think gary would too
41:59hey so we picked up tanya 20 minutes ago it was called in by a car rental company
42:04and she confessed to using the fish plant to offload the rusty runner and transfer cargo to chuck's truck
42:10now chuck kept the fish and he shipped the drugs off island and she swears that chuck killed gary not
42:18her
42:19how did she get mixed up in all this she was contacted through a gambling site now they found out
42:24about
42:24her debt and they promised to pay it off she brought in chuck because she knew how much she
42:29wanted to get away from the fog and fleet what about the fentanyl suppliers well chuck's escape route
42:34led the coast guard to exactly where they were stationed and all of those who are responsible are
42:39now in the custody of border services and sunnyside had no knowledge about the drug operation
42:45happening at the plant so it's business as usual okay well here we go i don't know about you guys
