00:02Previously on The Hunting Party
00:03It's called The Pit
00:04Home to the most dangerous and violent criminals in history
00:07All of whom the world believes are dead
00:09Or at least it was
00:10Until the blast hit
00:13Dinner with Lazarus was actually nice
00:15Nice?
00:16She didn't even know I was her son until a couple of weeks ago
00:18A new hire candidate at The Pit was flagged on their security clearance
00:21Colonel Lazarus personally pushed it through anyway
00:23Shane Florence
00:25It seems like Colonel Lazarus has known about Shane for a long time
00:38Cracked screen
00:39Ooh, that's the worst
00:40Man, you gotta get yourself a better case for this thing
00:43Yeah
00:44When's the last time you updated your software?
00:46This thing's moving a little slow
00:47I don't know, I just need the screen fixed
00:50Could be the drop
00:52Oh snap, you play Warmonger too?
00:54I guess I tried that out at some point
00:56Did you, uh, did you make it to Freya's Chariot?
00:59It's pretty epic
01:00Uh, look man, how long will it take to fix this screen?
01:03Uh, usually two business days
01:05But for a fellow Warmonger
01:07I can get this done in one
01:08For Odin
01:10Right
01:13Okay
01:14Thanks
01:15Hell yeah
01:20What a cool guy
01:43I really wanted to go see the Pirates play this weekend
01:46But all my boys are out of town
01:48F-M-O
02:03Yes
02:10And here he comes
02:11In the turn four
02:12Hugging the line
02:13Throttle wide open here
02:15Expanding
02:24Hey dude
02:27I, uh, got your screen fixed
02:28I, uh, got your screen fixed
02:30Uh
02:31Thanks
02:32Oh, and I, uh
02:33I went ahead and upgraded the OS for you
02:35No more buffering when you play Warmonger
02:38Right
02:40How did you know where I lived?
02:42Company database
02:44Uh, you didn't have to
02:46Oh, it's all good
02:48It's, it's fine
02:49In fact, I didn't even charge you for it
02:51And, uh, you were on my way home
02:53So I thought I would just
02:55Deliver it
02:56Save you from having to come in again
02:59Okay
03:01Thanks, man
03:03I was, you know
03:04I, I was supposed to go to the, um
03:05Pirates game tomorrow
03:06But my friend just flaked on me
03:09Is there any chance that you
03:11Would want to go?
03:13They're great seats
03:14I splurged
03:15Yeah, uh
03:17You know what, man?
03:18I don't really like baseball
03:21So
03:22Um
03:23But you have a good time
03:24Okay
03:27You told your mom
03:28That you wanted to go to the game
03:30What the hell?
03:32Did you go through my phone?
03:33Why are you lying to me?
03:35You love baseball
03:35Get the hell out of here, you creep
03:37I was trying to be nice
03:38Hey
03:38Did you hear what I said?
03:39I said get out
03:42Ow!
03:44Ow!
03:45Ow!
03:46Ow!
03:48Ow!
03:51Ow!
03:51Ow!
03:53Ow!
03:54Ow!
03:54Ow!
03:55Ow!
03:56Ow!
03:57Ow!
03:57Ow!
03:57Ow!
03:58Ow!
04:13Shane, it's all there
04:15Seven years ago
04:16You were recruited to work at the pit
04:17But your file was flagged
04:19During the vetting process
04:20And denied
04:22Until of course
04:23Lazarus pushed it through herself
04:25I'm sorry, man
04:27She didn't just figure out
04:28That you're her biological son
04:30She's known for years
04:33Doesn't say in here
04:34Why I was rejected
04:36You didn't pass the psyche, Val
04:39My source told me
04:40When they dug all this up
04:42But they thought
04:43I was too crazy
04:44For the pit
04:45No, no, no
04:46Places like this
04:47They want people
04:48They can control
04:49That follow orders
04:50No matter how unethical
04:50It is a good thing
04:52That you did not
04:52Check those boxes
04:53A good thing?
04:55You sure about that?
04:55And when I checked the right box
04:57Or Dr. Fairfax
04:58Maybe he was honest with me
05:00Nah, don't do that
05:01Don't do that
05:02I know who you are
05:04We both do
05:07And she's an expert
05:12Yeah, alright
05:16Okay, so she lied to me
05:17She pushed my paperwork through
05:19She wanted me here
05:22Why?
05:24She wasn't gonna tell me
05:25Who she was
05:26Why go through the trouble?
05:28Best case scenario
05:29You're her estranged son
05:31Feelings are complicated
05:32Worst case?
05:35Literally anything else
05:42Speaking of
05:43We need you out here
05:46Yep
05:50Shane
05:50Shane
05:52We're gonna figure this out
05:55Yeah
05:57Thanks, man
05:58Yeah
06:05Alright, folks
06:06This is a sensitive one
06:08Inmate K-77
06:10Byron May
06:11His fingerprints were found
06:12All over a murder scene
06:13In Pittsburgh
06:14Locals were in the prints already
06:15But as usual
06:16Our system intercepted the request
06:18And bounced back
06:18And no match reference
06:19Byron May
06:20I don't know this one
06:22Oh, that's a first
06:23Well, in the 2010s
06:25He worked as a tech specialist
06:27At an electronics store
06:28Where he crossed all seven of his victims
06:30And after only brief encounters
06:31After a brief encounter
06:32He would become fixated on his victims
06:34But after they inevitably
06:35Rejected his overtures
06:37He would beat them to death
06:38With an improvised weapon
06:38Yeah
06:39Uh, sorry
06:40I thought you said
06:41You didn't know this guy
06:42No
06:42I don't know this guy
06:43But that is the work
06:44Of the East Side Ripper
06:45And his name is not Byron May
06:47It's Victor Rosa
06:48Who is serving consecutive life sentences
06:50At the Pennsylvania State Penitentiary
06:52So
06:52Either they have the wrong guy
06:54Or the pit does
06:55What the hell are we talking about?
06:57What we're talking about here
06:59Agent Henderson
06:59Is a very delicate situation
07:02Is there an innocent man in prison?
07:07Are you serious?
07:09I'm afraid it's more complicated than that
07:11The East Side Ripper was a serial case
07:13Of particular interest
07:15Scientists in the pit
07:16In 2013 they used covert surveillance technology
07:18To positively identify him as Byron May
07:21And our team took him into custody
07:23He had no friends or family
07:25So no one even noticed he disappeared
07:27Okay, so you had the actual killer in custody
07:29Did not tell the police
07:31The case stayed open until 2015
07:33When Victor Rosa was arrested
07:35I was not involved
07:37But that's correct
07:38For obvious reasons
07:40The pit
07:41Does not share information
07:42With local authorities
07:44You understand
07:45You had
07:46The right guy
07:47And you did
07:48Nothing to help an innocent man
07:50Be that as it may
07:52Your job
07:54Our job
07:55Is to catch Byron May
07:58Before he kills again
08:02Nothing more, understood?
08:24Not again, come on
08:25Not again, come on
08:26Not again, can you?
08:44No bk
08:46No bk
08:47No bk
08:48No, bk
08:49No bk
08:49No bk
08:49No bk
08:50No bk
08:51No bk
08:52No bk
08:53I don't know.
09:32You were supposed to be at work.
09:34Who the hell are you?
10:17How are you feeling, Byron?
10:21How are you feeling, Byron?
10:25Can you hear your mother?
10:28Yes.
10:30Can you hear her heartbeat?
10:38Your mother loves you very much.
10:47I know.
10:50Your tax dollars hard at work, ladies and gentlemen.
10:53I did one of them sensory deprivation chambers once.
10:55I just fell asleep.
10:56It was a waste of 50 bucks.
10:57This isn't quite a sensory deprivation chamber.
11:00This was something called birth therapy, where a patient is put in a simulation of his mother's womb, supposed to
11:06trigger early childhood memories.
11:08Does that even work?
11:09Sometimes.
11:10Either way, when Byron got to the pit, the therapist traced the genesis of his social dysfunction back to a
11:15traumatic birth.
11:16The umbilical cord is wrapped around his neck.
11:18Okay, but that doesn't exactly add up to serial killer, right?
11:21My nephew was born the same way, and he works for a non-profit.
11:26No, I'm just saying, how does sticking Byron in a futuristic fake womb supposed to fix all the murdering?
11:32I think the hope was that he'd be in a state where the social conditioning could be rewired.
11:35It actually paid off in dividends.
11:37You know, when people brought their devices into me, I think they forgot that they store their entire lives on
11:44those things.
11:45Pictures of their kids, friends, texts, emails, the lies they tell, secrets, things they love, hate.
11:56I could spend hours going through someone's phone, and by the end, I would know everything about this person.
12:06I mean, things they wouldn't even share with their own mother.
12:09It was like a shortcut, a cheat code.
12:14I felt so close to them, but it didn't matter.
12:22It always went the same way.
12:24It's normal to want connection, but you can't force imaginary ones into existence.
12:31All I ever wanted is for people to like me.
12:36And I just don't understand how other people can make friends so easily.
12:42It's like the more I try, the more people seem put off by it.
12:48Genuine friendships take time and understanding.
12:51They're based on a reciprocal interest, and that just doesn't happen overnight.
12:57So Byron had trouble forming authentic relationships as a kid.
13:00He couldn't do anything about that rejection.
13:02But as an adult, he responded to that rejection with violence.
13:06Okay, here's what I'm wondering.
13:09Byron killed seven people, right?
13:12How did investigators pin that guy's crazy on an innocent man?
13:15So he and Victor worked at the same electronics store?
13:19Circumstantial evidence, a DA that was under pressure to find the killer.
13:22Yeah, it wouldn't be the first time an innocent person is railroaded by the system.
13:25Right, so Victor Rose gets a life sentence, this guy gets spa treatments.
13:29Yeah.
13:30No.
13:31No, screw Lazarus.
13:33We're not gonna let an innocent man spend the rest of his life in prison, right?
13:36No, we're not.
13:37All right.
13:38Well, if we're gonna put this right, we better find Byron first.
13:43Yeah.
13:52James Wilson.
13:54Time of death was about a week ago.
13:57They just uncovered the body this morning when a maintenance worker called about a weird smell.
14:01He was stabbed 63 times with a fork.
14:05Huh.
14:06Spur of the moment kill.
14:08That tracks, right?
14:10If he's following his old M.O., he would have crossed with James before all this.
14:13I've been reviewing James' socials and I just found something super creepy in one of his photos.
14:18Check it out.
14:22That looks pretty wholesome.
14:27Oh, that is creepy.
14:29He took a photo with the guy who would kill him and he had no idea.
14:33Morales, when was this taken?
14:36Two months ago.
14:38He was stalking James for a while.
14:40Morales.
14:41Hey, guys.
14:42Ben just got an angle on James' house.
14:45The ring camera from across the street has a clear view.
14:47I've got Byron leaving the house in a hurry eight days ago.
14:50Presumably right after the kill.
14:51The strange thing is, is there's no footage of Byron entering that day and there are cameras angled all over
14:56this house.
14:57How could he have exited without entering?
15:00Maybe he tunneled in.
15:03Hey, keep going back a little further.
15:05Scrobbing.
15:08Nothing.
15:09Keep going.
15:11Okay, going back even further.
15:14What are you thinking?
15:16All of Byron's previous kills, they happened at the entrance of the home.
15:19Maybe James invited him in.
15:21Except there's no footage of him coming in through the front door.
15:24Maybe he didn't use the front door.
15:26Whoa.
15:26Zoom in on that vent.
15:29We got him.
15:30Sending it over now.
15:36When was that?
15:37Four weeks ago.
15:38And then we don't have Byron on camera again until the day he killed James and fled.
15:42Well, that doesn't make sense.
15:44Unless he was already in the home.
15:46He didn't need to enter to kill James because he was already inside.
15:52Well, how do you stay in someone's house for a month without anyone noticing?
16:16Hey, don't step on the installation. Underneath is just drywall. You go right through.
16:22You think that's where Byron was sleeping?
16:27Looks like a rat's nest.
16:29It's not a nest.
16:31It's a wound.
16:33Guys?
16:35Who found something?
17:04Hey.
17:05Check this out.
17:07What is that?
17:08He's spying on them through the holes in the air vents.
17:15Look.
17:16There's another one.
17:18Hey, these angles, they match those photos over there.
17:24Geesh, why couldn't you have just followed James around like a normal stalker?
17:30You guys ever heard of, uh, frogging?
17:34What? Like the, uh, retro video game?
17:37No, like, like, like, frogging. Like, P-H-R-O...
17:42No?
17:43Okay.
17:45Frogging.
17:46Basically, someone sneaks into another person's home while they're away or at work and they just...
17:50don't leave.
17:52That person comes home and has no idea that there's a stranger in their walls or their basement or...
17:58in this case, the attic.
18:00Now that he's killed James, I wouldn't be surprised if Byron is creeping around his next victim's attic right now.
18:07Froggers were often deprived of human connection and use their voyeuristic position to connect with their victims.
18:14There's this vicarious thrill they get from staying in someone's home or their life.
18:20Most of the time, it traces back to early childhood because they were forced to hide due to trauma, shame,
18:26deep insecurity.
18:29Hey, Bo. You want a treat?
18:32There you go.
18:35Now, by spying on someone's most naked and vulnerable moments, they get to actually connect.
18:41A lot of the time, it goes back months or even years and it's usually non-violent, but occasionally, things
18:46take a turn.
18:49Byron used to use his victims' phones to gain access to their personal life. It's how he got to know
18:53them.
18:54But now, without his job or that access, he's infiltrating their lives, studying them 24-7.
19:01So, Byron got to know James by spying on him.
19:04But moving into a victim's house, that is a high-risk move.
19:09Accidental contact is bound to happen. So, he gets caught, there's a confrontation, and he kills James with a fork.
19:16So, all his encounters have gone wrong. You're saying he's gonna keep doing this.
19:21What happens when it goes right?
19:23It never will.
19:25Byron's still trying to shortcut normal social development.
19:28He's using the information that he gathered during frogging to create a chance meeting with his victims.
19:32Just like his previous MO, he's gonna craft himself into what he thinks is the perfect match for the object
19:37of his obsession.
19:39But it's gonna be just as manufactured and empty as before. So, when he inevitably gets rejected, he's gonna kill
19:47again.
19:54What happens when he gets rejected?
19:57Hey buddy, walk time!
20:00Bo, where you going? Bo, come on, boy let's go!
20:08Oh, come on, boy. Let's go.
20:16Hey.
20:18I'm sorry, I didn't know Eric had company.
20:20I'm Lee, the dog walker.
20:22Uh, just here to take him for a walk.
20:26But, uh, what are you doing?
20:29You know, I can come back another time.
20:34Oh, come on.
20:35Come on.
20:37Come on.
20:38Come on.
20:40Oh, man.
20:43Hey.
20:45Hey.
20:47Hey.
20:57Hey.
20:59Hey.
21:00Hey.
21:02Hey.
21:03Hey.
21:03Hey.
21:05Hey.
21:10Hey.
21:26Hey.
21:28Hey.
21:31Hey.
21:31Hey.
21:39Hey.
21:58Hey.
22:12Hey.
22:20Hey.
22:23Hey.
22:25Hey.
22:26Hey.
22:28Hey.
22:40Hey.
22:56Hey.
22:59Hey.
22:59Hey.
22:59Hey.
22:59Hey.
23:02Hey.
23:26Hey.
23:29Hey.
23:29Hey.
23:39Hey.
23:42Hey.
23:54Hey.
23:57Hey.
23:59Hey.
23:59Hey.
23:59No, it's fine. I'll get one of the officers to drop me off.
24:02Okay, Bex, please be careful.
24:05You be careful. I'm the one talking to an innocent man.
24:08Tell him we're getting him out.
24:13You know what this means. I got a shotgun.
24:23What's up, Snowflake?
24:26What's up, Snowflake?
24:29Who can I hang up with that coat with you, girl?
24:31Here's the thing about Victor Rosa.
24:32He ain't once taken responsibility for what he's done.
24:37This is a place of rehabilitation.
24:40Can't start that journey unless you're on what got you here in the first.
24:44Yeah, I bet a lot of inmates claim they're innocent.
24:48You ever get one that actually was, though?
24:51You hear them tell it? They all are.
24:53Come to think of it, we must be the most saintly square block in America.
24:57Victor get many visitors?
24:59Only his wife.
25:00She comes every week, hasn't done for years.
25:03You know, it's hard for family members.
25:05They can't accept the truth.
25:07Especially when they're incarcerated, can't face it themselves.
25:17It'll take as long as you need.
25:18It'll take as long as you need.
25:35Um, actually, this is about, this is about the murder of James Wilson.
25:43Never heard of him.
25:45You sure? Because it says that he sent you letters twice while you've been in prison.
25:51These were written to the East Side Ripper.
25:54That's not me.
25:56Okay, they weren't written to you.
25:59But what did you do with them?
26:00I mean, I know that the prison screens them, but once you actually got them, did you keep them?
26:04Look, my lawyer said it was all right.
26:05They're my property, I can share them with whoever I want.
26:08What do you mean, share them?
26:10Sorry, who did you share these with?
26:17Hey, listen to this.
26:19It's from Kenneth Wiley.
26:20Dear Mr. Ripper, I am writing to you today as someone who has the utmost respect and understanding for what
26:26you have gone through.
26:27Mr. Ripper?
26:28Yeah.
26:29We need a watch list for anyone sending fan mail to serial killers.
26:32Especially the ones using honorific titles.
26:34Fanboy or not, Mr. Wiley is a potential victim.
26:38I just got confirmation from local officers.
26:41They're en route to all three locations.
26:42I tell them we're five minutes out from Wiley's and we're going to cross them off the list one by
26:46one.
26:46Copy.
26:49I'd like to report a missing dog.
26:51And when did you last see your missing dog?
26:53At home this morning before I left for work.
26:57Any more details you can see?
26:59He went out with my dog walker, but I can't reach him and he hasn't come home yet.
27:03He's a multicolored Pomeranian.
27:06He's mostly black.
27:08Two years old.
27:09His name is Bo.
27:11He's a microchip.
27:12Yes, he is.
27:13He's my birth.
27:17He's a microchip.
27:17So, okay, wait.
27:18Go, boy.
27:23Victor, I want to help you.
27:25Okay?
27:27Look, I get it.
27:28You don't trust law enforcement.
27:29I wouldn't either if I were in your shoes, but...
27:34I'm going to level with you, okay?
27:36The DA that convicted you, he ignored evidence due to political pressure to get a conviction.
27:40He also suppressed critical testimony.
27:42Believe me when I say I want to help you.
27:49My wife visits me every week.
27:54Ten years.
27:57I'm not the only one in prison.
27:59Do you understand?
28:01My son thinks I'm a killer.
28:07He doesn't visit.
28:08He doesn't write anymore.
28:10I'm sorry.
28:12He said that he still loves me.
28:15That he understands what horrible mistakes I've made.
28:23But he's not going to visit me until I confess that I'm the East Side Ripper.
28:31So, admit that I'm a monster, that I'm not, or never see my son again.
28:41What kind of choice is that?
28:48It's a choice you don't have to make.
28:51I know you're innocent.
28:56Victor, I need your help to prove that.
29:00Okay.
29:13I think I found a friend of yours.
29:15Oh, my God.
29:17I can't believe it.
29:20Where did you find them?
29:22Just wandering over by the park.
29:24Yeah.
29:25I saw the address on the collar and figured I'd just walk over here.
29:28I don't know how I'm going to be able to thank you.
29:31Oh.
29:38Do you want to come in?
29:39Can I get you a drink or something?
29:43Yeah.
29:44A drink would be nice.
29:45Yeah, thanks.
29:46Thanks.
29:47Yeah.
29:56Morales, new wrinkle.
29:57There's evidence that Byron has been to each of the houses that we've been to, but by the
30:00looks of it, he didn't stay long.
30:02But he cased the others before settling on James?
30:04Yeah, that's what it looks like.
30:05We've only got one person left on the list.
30:07Hey, how come we can't get a hold of Bex?
30:09She's still at the prison.
30:10She had to give up her comms and her phone.
30:12All right.
30:12Let her know we're on our way to the last house and Tamita's there.
30:18Who did you send James Wilson's letters to?
30:22Victor, look.
30:23I can't tell you why, but this information, it could get you out of here.
30:29Her name is Kendra Wilcox.
30:31She's a famous crime writer.
30:33She's gotten people exonerated before.
30:35It's the only reason I wrote her back.
30:37And she specifically asked for the letters?
30:40She asked for everything.
30:41I gave her case files, letters from my family, the fan mail, all of it.
30:46Okay.
30:46Mail.
30:47Phone call.
30:48Thanks.
30:49Sorry, Victor, one second.
30:52Anderson.
30:52Bex.
30:53We've been trying to get a hold of you.
30:54The guys have searched all the houses on the list, and there was evidence that Byron was
30:57there, but now we've run out of fan mail.
30:59Okay.
31:00Byron focused on the fan mail because it gave him acceptance and understanding, so who else?
31:04Who else would write Victor letters expressing acceptance and understanding for the Eastside
31:08Ripper's crimes?
31:14Hey, you said your son.
31:15He used to write you letters?
31:17Eric hasn't written me in a long time.
31:20Morales.
31:24My name's Eric, by the way.
31:26Eric Rosa.
31:28Byron.
31:29It's nice to meet you.
31:31Cheers.
31:37Byron Pose is a famous crime writer who promised to help Victor with the case, and
31:40that's why Victor sent him everything.
31:42So, Victor thinks he's been emailing someone who can help prove his innocence, but really,
31:45he's been talking to the actual killer all along.
31:47Morales, did you find Eric Rosa's letters that he sent his father?
31:49Yeah.
31:50Listen to this.
31:51People talk about the Eastside Ripper like he's a monster, and I understand why.
31:55You and I both know life isn't that simple.
31:58Nothing is black and white.
31:59I know you have a lot of love in your heart, but I can't be in your life unless you
32:03admit
32:04to being a murderer and ask for forgiveness for your crimes.
32:07That's exactly what Byron would want to read.
32:09I need Eric's phone number right now.
32:12And I was just running by the park when I saw him alone.
32:16I'm training for a marathon.
32:18Oh, no way.
32:20The Chatsville?
32:22Yeah.
32:23Me too.
32:24We got a train together.
32:26I got a group of buddies.
32:27We all go running in the mornings.
32:28Oh, yeah, definitely.
32:31Oh, man.
32:32I'm sorry, but I gotta probably call it a night.
32:36Gotta get up early for work.
32:37The old grindstone, huh?
32:39Mm-hmm.
32:40All good.
32:46Um, listen, thank you for bringing him home.
32:51I don't know what I would have done if I lost him.
32:54Of course.
32:55And no worries.
32:56I have to go visit my dad tomorrow anyway.
32:59Oh, where does he live?
33:01He's, uh, in prison.
33:05He's a good guy, but he got into a fight with someone.
33:07And it's been a really hard few years, but it's a long story.
33:15I'm so sorry, man.
33:16That really sucks.
33:18Yeah.
33:20Anyway, I don't know why I just said all that.
33:24Oversharing.
33:27I'll see you around.
33:29Hey, wait.
33:30Um, believe it or not, I know what that's like.
33:37Uh, my dad's in prison, too.
33:42I don't talk about it a lot, but, um, my dad is Victor Rosa.
33:50He's the Eastside Ripper.
33:55Wow.
33:56Yeah.
33:56Uh, most people are pretty freaked out when I tell them.
34:00Well, that's not very fair to you.
34:06Uh, sorry.
34:07Just one second.
34:15Oh, God.
34:18What is it?
34:19What's wrong?
34:19Um, my dog walker's body was just found, um, someone killed him.
34:29I guess that's why Beau was wandering around lost.
34:37How'd you know his name is Beau?
34:39His car.
34:41It's just an address on the car.
34:53He isn't picking up.
34:57Oh, well, if his name's not on his car, you must have said it, then.
35:03Yeah.
35:03Yeah.
35:05Yeah, you're probably right.
35:06Um, uh, um, listen, I should probably deal with this, so.
35:11Okay.
35:13Okay.
35:14Well, this was really nice.
35:17I hope to see you around.
35:21Yeah, yeah.
35:24Yeah.
36:00Stace?
36:01Eric Rosa, this is the FBI.
36:02Are you home right now?
36:03The, the, the FBI?
36:05I need you to be quiet and listen to me.
36:06We have reason to believe that there's a dangerous intruder in your house.
36:08You need to get out and go somewhere safe now.
36:10We'll be there in two minutes.
36:11Wait, uh, uh, are you talking about the weirdo guy, Byron?
36:16Did he kill my dog walker?
36:18Eric, get out of your house now.
36:20No, no, no, no, no.
36:21It's fine.
36:23He just left.
36:24No, he didn't.
36:25He is in your house right now.
36:28Eric.
36:31Eric.
36:34Eric.
36:35Eric.
36:35Eric.
36:36Eric.
36:37Eric.
36:38Eric.
36:48Stop, please, stop.
36:52What do you want from me?
36:53I just want to be your friend.
36:55Eric.
36:56I know you can forgive me.
36:58I know because you said so yourself.
37:01What, what are you talking about?
37:04In your letters, you said that you could forgive the East Side Ripper.
37:08No, I, I wrote those letters to my dad.
37:15Oh, my God.
37:20Help me!
37:21Somebody help me, please!
37:23Hey, hey!
37:24Byron, drop the knife!
37:25Byron, drop it!
37:36We just need your fingerprints, right?
37:43You're right.
37:44You're okay.
37:45Come on.
37:50Call the cleaners.
37:51Wait, stop, stop, stop.
37:53Shane's right.
37:54We're not cleaning this one up.
38:00Victor Rosa will never be free if they don't find the real killer.
38:06Masani.
38:17More or less in about 30 minutes, Pittsburgh PD is about to send over some prints.
38:21Make sure they're a match this time.
38:23Will do.
38:26Oh, my God.
38:27Victor!
38:28Victor!
38:28Thanks, you are welcome.
38:29Hey!
38:30I'm sorry.
38:31What are you doing?
38:32What?
38:34The lawyer says you're getting out.
38:36This new evidence that fingerprints change everything.
38:39You'll have the appeal filed tonight.
38:57Eric, come here.
39:00Eric, come here.
39:01Come here.
39:01Oh, my God.
39:15Hey.
39:17Hey.
39:25Okay.
39:26Thanks for letting me know.
39:28Hey.
39:30I just got off the phone with Eric Rosa.
39:32His father is going to be a free man.
39:34Hey, we did the right thing.
39:36There will be consequences.
39:39Lazarus wants to talk to us.
39:40Let her.
39:41Just help.
39:42This ain't justice.
39:43Mm-hmm.
39:47You know, there's always been this part of me that daydreamed when I finally met my mom.
39:54She'd be a good person.
39:55You know?
39:56Just misunderstood or wrongly convicted.
39:59Like Victor Rosa.
40:02Yeah.
40:02Hey.
40:04You really think she attacked Cyrus' convoy?
40:08I do.
40:13Okay.
40:17Hey.
40:20We still don't have proof.
40:24Well, we need to find some.
40:44We're after a killer puppet maker.
40:47This is not what I expected.
40:53The Hunting Party.
