00:14In Toronto's War on Crime, the worst offenders are pursued by the detectives of the Specialized Criminal Investigations Unit.
00:22These are their stories.
00:25All right.
00:26I'm just here and here.
00:30And that should do it.
00:35This isn't a big mistake, right?
00:37I'm gonna let you...
00:41...little secret, Melissa.
00:42There are no mistakes in Toronto real estate.
00:46He's not wrong.
00:47Nothing can be bought that can't be sold again.
00:50At a markup.
00:51Right.
00:52And if I just want a good home.
00:54Listen, it's nerve wracking.
00:56I get it.
00:56All this gobbledygook.
00:59But it's a great little home.
01:02You're gonna be very happy there.
01:05Mr. Henning, tell me how often do we get homebuyers having last-minute jitters?
01:10First time?
01:12Mm-hmm.
01:13Well, then I would be worried if you weren't nervous.
01:22And that covers it.
01:24How do you feel, Paul?
01:25I mean, yeah.
01:27Good.
01:27A lot of good memories here.
01:29But a new chapter awaits.
01:31Japan.
01:31That's exciting.
01:33When you think about going back?
01:34As soon as this is finalized.
01:36It won't be much longer now, right?
01:37No inspections.
01:40The fun should be released by tomorrow.
01:41Oh, excuse me.

03:58i bet you
04:21what the hell is oh my god guys guys
04:34you
05:19So, who do we have here?
05:22White male, 40s, doesn't look like he was using the skate park.
05:29Wounds like a double-edged blade, two, three, four quick jabs.
05:34The one on the groin would have finished him off, and blood trails suggest he was stabbed
05:39on the path, dragged here as he was dying.
05:46I don't see any defensive wounds.
05:48It wasn't much of a fight.
05:49Happened fast.
05:50Maybe he was facing his attacker, but didn't expect violence.
05:56You think he knew him?
05:57Well, a stranger approaches on a dark path.
06:00He puts your guard up.
06:01Friend approaches, you don't end up dead.
06:03Fair call.
06:04Well, no visible tattoos, no discoloration of the skin to indicate missing persons, and
06:11watch your jewelry, nondescript clothes, neutral colors, shoes off the rack.
06:18Blake's sleep.
06:20Fingerprints aren't in the system, and there's no match to missing persons.
06:24Doesn't come home last night, doesn't show up for work this morning.
06:27Nobody's missing this guy.
06:28Apparently not.
06:29Empty pockets, no car keys, no phone, no wallet, nothing.
06:33Simple mugging, clean them out.
06:35Oh, with the mugging, you take the wallet and run.
06:37You don't drag the guy into the woods.
06:38Well, I'd say you don't have much to go on, but this is nothing to go on.
06:44Report on your John Doe.
06:46Nothing much to write home about.
06:51That's on brand, but there is this.
06:57Black molars.
06:58That's silver diamine fluoride.
07:01Correct.
07:02Topical treatment for tooth decay, an alternative to drilling.
07:05Stains the teeth.
07:06So, our John Doe didn't want to get cavities, so that's not exactly a lead.
07:11I hate to break it to you, but I see some canvassing in your future.
07:14Get a digital rendering made and go talk to the public.
07:18The public.
07:26Take a close look.
07:27Yeah.
07:28Yeah.
07:28Yeah, he came in last night.
07:31All right, so you've seen him before.
07:34No, but he tipped big, stuck around to eat, and said he just cashed in his chips.
07:40There.
07:42May I?
07:51No calls, no texting, just dining alone.
07:55I don't know, fried chicken and zidoku looks pretty good to me.
08:00Hey, look at that.
08:02The pen.
08:04Right there.
08:07He just throws it in the trash with everything else, but...
08:14He came in with it, see?
08:16Maybe there's a logo on it.
08:18House of reach, but it's something.
08:20This path leads us to...
08:22Dumpster full of old chicken, isn't it?
08:24You're in luck.
08:25It was late.
08:26I already emptied the trash, so anything you tossed is still in the can.
08:29Can we borrow a pizza box?
08:35Talking to the public guard search?
08:38This guy's starting to bother me.
08:40Oh, come on.
08:40You love it.
08:47Oh, God.
08:51Hey.
08:53There we go.
08:56Samantha Morgan Wingrove Realty.
08:59Well, it's not nothing.
09:05I mean, it's Paul.
09:08Why?
09:09What's happened?
09:10And how do you know it?
09:10I sold this house for him.
09:12I'm actually here, grabbing my staging materials.
09:14He cashed in his chips.
09:16Excuse me?
09:18Is he okay?
09:19I'm afraid he was found dead this morning.
09:22What?
09:23What on earth happened?
09:24We don't actually have a lot of details right now, but maybe you can help.
09:27This image is a rendering.
09:29Do you happen to have anything that could help us confirm that we're talking about the same person?
09:33I mean, that's him.
09:35I'm 100% sure that's him.
09:37Hold on.
09:47Yeah, that's our guide.
09:49Do you mind if I hang on to this?
09:50No, of course.
09:51Thanks.
09:57I'm sorry.
09:58I'm just a little confused here.
09:59He was on his way back to Japan.
10:02Japan?
10:02Yeah, that's where he worked.
10:04That's why he wanted to get rid of his place.
10:05He was spending most of his time there.
10:08Yeah, well, that explains why no one misses him.
10:11Are there any photos of his friends or family?
10:14Any personal items?
10:16Usually we haul that stuff out by the truckload.
10:21But we actually had to bring some tchotchkes in.
10:24Yeah, there's not much character.
10:27Did you happen to meet anyone else in his life?
10:30No, we only met a couple weeks ago.
10:32Well, that deal must have gone through pretty quick.
10:34We priced it to move.
10:35He was eager to get back overseas.
10:42Thanks.
10:43Listen, everyone's signed in line here, so I'm just curious.
10:47Will this affect the sale?
10:50I don't mean to be crass.
10:51It's, uh, not matter.
10:55Yeah, it's Detective Bateman.
10:57I was hoping you could run a name for me.
10:59Yeah, Paul Phillips, date of birth, March 23rd, 1981.
11:04Address, 227 Alton Drive.
11:06Search CPIC.
11:07Check your currencies.
11:08See what you can find on a next-minute emergency contact.
11:12Thanks.
11:12None of the neighbors have seen this guy for months.
11:16Anything out of the ordinary lately?
11:18Oh, just the real estate people coming and going.
11:20One of the neighbors, he was so irritated.
11:24Place sold for 1.5.
11:26Undermarket, the-
11:28Use of thought, poor thing.
11:30Yeah.
11:35Okay, thank you so much.
11:38Paul Phillips has his sister in the scar room.
11:48A modern-day warrior means stride.
11:51Today's Tom Sawyer, mean, mean pride.
12:06Well, his mind is not for him.
12:08The wood has come down as arrogant.
12:12He's reserved a quiet defense.
12:15Writing out the day's events.
12:18The river.
12:39Here you go.
12:42Here you go.
12:43Here you go.
12:44Here you go.
12:44Here you go.
12:48I just can't.
12:49I just can't make sense of it.
12:51We're so sorry for your loss.
12:53Who would do that to Paul?
12:54Oh, that's something we're hoping you might be able to help us figure out.
13:00Lydia, because of the circumstances of your brother's death, we do need to confirm his identity.
13:06Is that something you're comfortable doing?
13:08Oh.
13:14Oh, God.
13:17Yeah.
13:18Okay.
13:22Jealous?
13:26Opinion.
13:27What are the bruises around the stab wounds?
13:30Well, they're from the attack.
13:32Looks like the murder weapon had a hilt.
13:35Why, is something bothering you, detective?
13:38Hold me everything.
13:49So, sit up in there.
13:50You can take your time, and we'll go in when you're ready.
13:54Miss Phillips, were you aware your brother was back in town?
13:58No, it was weird to let me know when he was coming.
14:02At any rate, Detective Graf, and we will give you a moment to yourself, because we understand this is difficult.
14:09Did you know he sold his house?
14:10He did?
14:12Yeah, he was in a rush to get rid of it.
14:15It took far less than he could have.
14:16How often were you two in touch?
14:20Touch.
14:21Well, not daily, but, you know, we shared the big stuff.
14:24Like selling his home.
14:26I would have thought so.
14:27Yeah.
14:28I think I'm ready to see him now.
14:31It's right this way.
14:32It was something else we shared.
14:34We were both blind as bats.
14:37Only, Paul was brave enough to have the surgery.
14:40He had laser surgery?
14:42Yeah, the same as stigmatism, but Paul had his corrected.
14:45Do you have a number for Paul in Japan?
14:49Yes, but aren't we going in now?
14:52Can you dial it?
14:54Please?
14:56Okay.
14:57I'm so sorry.
14:58I'll be right back.
15:03Hey, what are you thinking?
15:05Stained molars.
15:07This silver diamide fluoride.
15:09Dentists use it when a patient has an aversion to anesthetic.
15:16If he can't have anesthetic, he didn't get eye surgery.
15:19Well, maybe he's not a blank slate after all.
15:22Paul?
15:23Lydia?
15:24You're alive!
15:25Lydia, is everything okay?
15:28So who's in the morgue?
15:32An imposter.
15:40Stant.
15:42If that wasn't Paul Phillips, who was he?
15:44Let's start with a different question.
15:47How does one sell a house they don't own?
15:50He had ID.
15:52I showed him two pieces as a requirement.
15:56Which you didn't authenticate.
15:58I check his photo.
16:00I look at his face.
16:02I mean, I'm not Interpol.
16:04You met him two weeks ago.
16:06He came to you.
16:07Is that right?
16:07He saw my bus that bad.
16:09Told me he was in a hurry and that I should take any reasonable offer.
16:12Nothing about that seems suspicious.
16:14That's a motivated seller.
16:17That's music to my ears.
16:19Keep everything moving so fast that nobody notices anything's off.
16:22Like clearing a house of all personal items.
16:25Not a single keepsake that might identify the real Paul Phillips.
16:29His name was on the title.
16:30Funny you should say.
16:32He spelt his name wrong on the purchase agreement.
16:35Use the common spell.
16:38Phillips.
16:39Two L's rather than the one L that the real Paul Phillips used.
16:44He just repeats the error a few times.
16:47Uh, obviously I didn't see that.
16:50Samantha, have you heard of anything like this happening before?
16:53I mean, I've heard of it, but no, not to anyone I know.
16:56Hey, who do you like in, uh, financial crimes?
16:59Like, I'm a stronghold.
17:02Chase is over.
17:08Title, thank you.
17:11A booming business.
17:13That's what you get when a starter home costs a million bucks.
17:17Save.
17:18The guys have the money and the bad guys have taken note.
17:23Have a seat.
17:27In this case, the fraudster poses the homeowner.
17:31Fake, uh...
17:32Fake ID.
17:33Owner overseas.
17:35Right, obviously.
17:36They target vacant properties.
17:39Unmowed lawns.
17:40Junk mail piling up.
17:42They do a title search, find out the owner's name.
17:44Little bit of rudimentary identity theft, and they are well on their way.
17:48Here.
17:5130 homes in the GTA in the last three years, sold or mortgaged without the owner's consent.
17:56Oh, Jesus.
17:57Was this guy involved with any of them?
18:03Uh, I don't think so.
18:05But that face rings a bell.
18:12Move.
18:14Uh, there was a similar scheme in Vancouver.
18:19There was a guy who rented an apartment to 19 people at once, collected rent from all of them,
18:25and then left before anyone...
18:27and got wise.
18:28Is that him?
18:30Yeah, it's the guy.
18:31No.
18:33Vancouver Regional Police never caught him, but they appealed to the public, and they did get a name.
18:37Timothy Fox.
18:40Fox was Paul.
18:41Fox was Paul Phillips, huh?
18:43Who are you working with in financial?
18:46Oh, well, Graff is...
18:47is a...
18:49a...
18:49beast, so we're using her.
18:50Yeah, one more day and Fox would have got away with it.
18:53Luckily, the house is still an escrow, so the sale never went through.
18:56Well, that's your angle.
18:58Somebody solved that problem with a knife.
19:00Yeah, most of the funds at risk were the banks, all insured.
19:03However, the buyer's deposit...
19:05Gotta be over...
19:08$100,000.
19:09Oh, that's killing money.
19:11Go meet the buyer.
19:18Yeah, I've been looking for months.
19:20God, I'll bid so many times.
19:22Finally, an offer...
19:24accepted, and then...
19:26this happens.
19:27It's bad luck.
19:28Yeah, is it true...
19:30that this...
19:31imposter guy was murdered?
19:33That's what my real estate agent told me.
19:34Melissa,
19:35how much money did you put down on the house?
19:38$150,000.
19:40That's a big...
19:41number.
19:42Yeah, with a big loan on top of that, I bet.
19:46Um...
19:47Can I ask where you work?
19:48Harborview Lounge.
19:49On Wellington.
19:51I'm a bartender.
19:53Oh, yeah?
19:53Well, what's your favorite cocktail?
19:55Not to mix, but to drink.
19:57If I'm fond of a gin, Ricky.
20:00Well, I'm not drinking much these days.
20:02Oh, because you're pregnant?
20:04Excuse me?
20:05That's why you want more living space.
20:07Baby on the way.
20:08And how rude...
20:10to be to make that leap?
20:11Oh, the leap happened earlier.
20:14From this.
20:20Paris...
20:22Clay powder.
20:25Mounting plaque.
20:26I don't see any other crafting supplies about,
20:28so, uh...
20:30I'm assuming it's a molding kit for a baby foot.
20:34That was a leap.
20:36The no drinking part just, uh...
20:40confirmed it.
20:41Or...
20:42did I get it wrong?
20:45I'm once pregnant.
20:47Did your parents co-sign for the house?
20:50No.
20:52It's none of your business.
20:53What about father-to-be?
20:55Not in the picture.
20:56And even less of your business.
20:58Where were you two nights ago?
20:59Is he serious?
21:00Well, the man who tried to steal 150...
21:0550 dollars from you was killed, so...
21:07he's quite serious.
21:10I was...
21:11at work.
21:12Mondays are slow, so maybe only 300 people saw me?
21:15Would you like their names?
21:17Let's start with your manager's phone number.
21:26You went, uh...
21:28pretty hard at her.
21:29I mean, I'm not getting...
21:30stab you.
21:32No, but she's definitely hiding something.
21:35She didn't even ask if she was getting her deposit back.
21:39The money's dodgy.
21:41Let's follow it.
21:45Yes, I was the advisor of Ms. Harbaugh's file.
21:48Meaning you approved the loan.
21:50I processed it.
21:51Is there a difference?
21:52Detectives, I'm sure you understand you've got us in a spot here.
21:56We can't discuss the personal finances of a client without a court order.
22:00The finances of a single bartender who buys a house for 1.5 million dollars?
22:05I know it can seem opaque from the outside, but the industry uses something called a GDS ratio.
22:09Gross.
22:11Debt services.
22:12The percentage of income that goes toward housing.
22:14You know your stuff.
22:15I do.
22:17Yeah, I learned the hard way when I tried to buy in Ronci on a cop salary.
22:21But, uh, by my math, to get approved for that loan, Melissa Auerbach would have to be making over $200
22:30,000 a year.
22:31Yeah, she's a charming lady, but, uh, that's a lot of tips.
22:35She had all the records to back it up.
22:37Bank statements, tax returns.
22:39Yep, all of it.
22:40And you authenticated these?
22:41We asked for official documents, and she supplied them.
22:44Detectives.
22:45As the bank's manager, I have to insist.
22:48Get a court order, and you can look at the records yourself.
22:51If you insist.
23:02Someone definitely cooked the books, made the, uh, fine answers.
23:08No one blinked.
23:11What is it?
23:12Well, maybe that was Timothy Fox's mistake.
23:15His con ran into an even bigger con.
23:21An imposter made to forge her in a dark alley and blood spills.
23:25Maybe it's time we run a con of our own.
23:29Are you still interested in buying a house?
23:33Have you been looking long?
23:35I just started.
23:37Do I look like a deer in the headlights?
23:39You'll get the hang of it.
23:41You just need some good help.
23:43About that, I...
23:45I actually don't have an agent yet, and my friend Melissa recommended you.
23:50Well then...
23:51I'm always charming, but now I'll really bore it on.
23:56Is this the kind of place you're looking for?
23:58Oh, I mean, it's beautiful.
24:02But, uh, I don't know.
24:05See, here's the thing.
24:07Our finances are a bit tricky.
24:10I'm a gallery owner.
24:11My husband has a carpenter.
24:14We're doing fine, but a lot of our income is in cash.
24:19Meaning it doesn't necessarily all make its way to the book.
24:22So that's between you and God.
24:25Okay.
24:27It's just on paper we don't qualify for much of a mortgage.
24:32None of my business, but what you're describing, I see it all the time.
24:36In fact, I know someone who helps clients in your situation.
24:41Like a mortgage broker?
24:43More like an advisor.
24:44He'll help you organize your books.
24:47Oh.
24:49I mean, we don't want to do anything unethical.
24:52Of course not.
24:52You just want to owe.
24:55They'll make your payments, right?
24:56Of course.
24:58Then no one gets hurt.
25:03Jesse Grayson.
25:06Let him do his thing.
25:07You'll have the home of your dreams before you know him.
25:14So what would you do?
25:15My idea for a restaurant is vegan on one side, snout to tell meat on the other.
25:20Okay, perfect.
25:21Offend everyone.
25:23Appeal to everyone.
25:24That's the move, Dad.
25:25Respect their boundaries, but all together.
25:27And the servers would use like a demilitarized zone down the middle.
25:30Oh, Josh.
25:33Who is it?
25:35Uh, it's just a colleague.
25:38Why don't you head in?
25:39I'll be right there.
25:40Okay.
25:46What are you doing here, Grayson?
25:48What did you say to the cops?
25:49You're following me?
25:51I had to make sure you weren't getting cold feet.
25:53Cold feet?
25:54I did not tell you to kill that guy.
25:56I told you to take care of him.
25:58I just came here so you understand the reality behind all this.
26:03It's you and me now.
26:06Us, Adrian.
26:08You understand?
26:10I didn't say anything.
26:12And I won't.
26:14You stay away from my family.
26:16Later, buddy.
26:24This Grayson guy's got this
26:27pretty
26:30operation doctoring people's finances
26:31until Timothy Fox comes along with
26:34his own scheme
26:35and threatens to blow the whole thing up.
26:37Is that your theory?
26:38Yeah, if Fox had managed to sell
26:41us, it would have sparked a huge investigation
26:43once the real
26:43owner got home from Japan.
26:45And that would have exposed the whole operation.
26:47We're thinking Grayson killed Fox
26:51before
26:52nullified the sale, thinking
26:53that's the end of that, problem solved.
26:55That's him.
26:56We got him, location data
26:58from Grayson's phone.
27:02He was at West End Skate Park
27:04at the time they killed him.
27:17Jesse Grayson!
27:18Armed officers!
27:19We're coming in!
27:36Bring him in!
27:37I can't wait!
27:38I can't wait!
27:40I can't wait!
27:43I can't wait!
27:54Alas, poor Grayson.
28:00A single blow to the head.
28:03That's what most likely brought him down.
28:09Followed by...
28:12Repeat blows.
28:15Finish him off.
28:18There's no doubt.
28:21Killer drops the whip.
28:26Washes up with alcohol and hightails it out of here.
28:30Not before taking the computer.
28:42Forged T4.
28:44Artificially aged.
28:45Coffee ring and all.
28:48This must be where Grayson did his work.
28:51It's a good bet that all the clients were...
28:54...drives.
28:55One of them didn't want it found.
28:56This crime scene is a mess.
28:58The baton was a weapon of opportunity.
29:01He came from here.
29:03Grayson was prepared.
29:05Yeah, for a lifetime of not dating.
29:09That's interesting.
29:13Double-sided blade, quick jabs, bruising from the guard.
29:20The weapon that killed Timothy Fox.
29:22Could be.
29:23So if Grayson killed Fox...
29:27Who killed Grayson?
29:30Someone didn't want Grayson's handiwork to come to light.
29:33That's why they took his computer.
29:34Yeah, someone with enough skin in the game to go all the way to murder.
29:38Murder.
29:40...tracks.
29:41Grayson's services would appeal to all kinds of bad actors.
29:44You can get a mortgage.
29:45You can launder a million.
29:48A million it takes to flip a condo.
29:50Do you have his phone?
29:51I got his call history from his provider.
29:55Nothing?
29:57Well, a couple of maybes.
29:58Some numbered companies.
30:01Some foreign owners.
30:02A couple of...
30:03...pays...
30:04...as you go as...
30:05...as you go as...
30:06...as you go next to real estate.
30:07Or criminal associates.
30:09We thought somebody of your expertise might be able to spot...
30:14...something...
30:15...thing we...
30:16How many listings are we talking about?
30:22All right, let me sit with it.
30:24Well, I think we...
30:25Alone.
30:35Hey, Bob.
30:36How's the treehouse coming along?
30:37The kids want a second floor.
30:39And plumbing.
30:40Let me know if you need help with...
30:42...financing.
30:44Yeah, have a good night, Adrian.
31:12Sorry.
31:14Sorry, sorry, Tamara. I had to work late.
31:23And I should have called.
31:25Would have been nice.
31:36Hey.
31:39I'm sorry.
32:02You think she's okay in there?
32:04Well, I offered her food and she made a sound I didn't recognize.
32:09Bateman! Graf!
32:18What do you mean?
32:19It's not one of Grayson's clients.
32:21He starts the loans, yes.
32:24But someone still needs to underwrite them.
32:26So I looked at the land title registry and that's when I saw it.
32:31The lending institutions, the same ones keep coming up over and over again.
32:35And that's what Grayson would have shown you.
32:40They are all getting their dodgy financing from Hemisphere.
32:47Your savings and loans.
32:49So our big fish isn't a gangster.
32:53He's a banker.
32:58Hot diggity damn.
33:03It's a beautiful view.
33:05It's a beautiful home.
33:07What can I do for you?
33:08Tell me, Mr. Henning.
33:11A man in your position, is your compensation tied to the performance of your branch?
33:17A man in your position, is your compensation tied to the percentage structure, yes?
33:23So if a branch does well, you do well.
33:26And it's obvious that...
33:30...one very well.
33:31I have a good team.
33:33Transferred there three years ago, we gelled right away.
33:35But Mr. Henning, we're here because we found evidence of widespread fraud at your branch.
33:40I have no idea what you're talking about.
33:43No, we also have reason to believe that these crimes are connected to two murders.
33:46Would you care to comment on that?
33:48Ah, fuck.
33:50I wouldn't know how.
33:52I'm stunned.
33:53Well, that...
33:54That watch, that's a rarity.
33:58I have a thousand years and especially none of that vintage.
34:00Would you mind if I took a closer look?
34:02He's crazy about watch.
34:06Oh, sure.
34:07Ooh, well, it looks like someone's been playing with Dr. Poxy Chemicals.
34:12Caught you red-handed, so to speak.
34:14What?
34:15Isopropyl alcohol.
34:17In pure form, it can cause skin rashes if you were to use it to clean your skin.
34:24What?
34:24Blood, maybe?
34:26Detective Poxy, I am a banker.
34:28I use sanitizer after every hand I shake, and I shake a lot of hands.
34:33If you wouldn't mind, I would appreciate it if you directed any other questions to my lawyer.
34:37Mm-hmm.
34:38I do.
34:39But in terms of getting to work on time, I wouldn't worry.
34:43So we took your advice.
34:45It's a copy of the search warrant that's gone to your branch.
34:49So we might beat you there, but either way, see you soon.
35:08Irregularity is all over the place.
35:10Here's a student claiming $400,000 in overseas.
35:15Well, this client owns three homes on $2.4 million borrowed occupations.
35:23Patience.
35:25Hairdresser.
35:26Ooh.
35:27Coffee ring and all.
35:29Oh my God, if you tried this at my bank, they would taser you in the face.
35:33And then they'd file a suspicious transaction report.
35:46Adrian Henning.
35:48Placing you under arrest.
35:50On what charge?
35:51Well, today, a conspiracy to commit fraud and money laundering.
35:56But we'll see what tomorrow brings.
36:07Mr. Grayson's network funneled dozens of fraudulent clients towards Mr. Henning's bank.
36:13Where did a rubber stamp for loans?
36:15Allegedly.
36:17The initial audit suggests it's been happening for over a year.
36:21Now, are you telling me your client...
36:23Theo, I thought we were having lunch.
36:27You want to talk hypotheticals?
36:28I'm all ears.
36:30Otherwise...
36:31All right, okay.
36:33Okay.
36:38Hypothetically speaking.
36:43I killed Jesse Grayson to hide his own criminal activity at Hemisphere Savings and Loans.
36:47Mr. Henning has denied any part in that fraud.
36:50And if you come at us claiming he planned to murder Jesse...
36:54...traffic cams put him at the condo on the night.
36:58Prints and DNA...
37:03...all over the murder weapon.
37:04You see cold-blooded intent.
37:07Perhaps I see something else.
37:12What would that be?
37:14Well, if I were to say, and let's be clear, I'm not...
37:21...client knew of a dangerous man that was defrauding his bank...
37:25...and asked the...
37:28...his...
37:29...dan...
37:30...to stop...
37:31Oh, uh...
37:32...if that's your defense...
37:34...that man would have to be pretty dangerous...
37:38...for a murder charge to go away.
37:40I forget who was it that...
37:41...brutally killed Timothy Fox with an illegal...
37:45...web...
37:45Oh, right.
37:46Jesse Grayson.
37:48When your delusions subside, call me.
37:50We'll start talking in absolutes.
37:54Thanks for the shawarma.
38:04Self-defense.
38:06Looking that way.
38:10...where a murder weapon came from Grayson's armory.
38:13Okay, but you know that just because it's not premeditated...
38:16...does not mean...
38:19...mean...
38:20Yeah, all they have to do is convince the jury that Henning feared for his life...
38:23...if Caldwell does that, he'll walk.
38:26No...
38:26No, no, no, no.
38:27Grayson was...
38:28...was attacked from behind by surprise.
38:30He had a whole arsenal of weapons...
38:32...but, uh...
38:33...none in hand.
38:35He wasn't the aggressor.
38:36Yeah, not this time.
38:38Exactly.
38:39That's the issue.
38:40Grayson's a killer.
38:41Henning, at best, is a f...
38:43...first...
38:44...Robin Hood giving houses to the poor.
38:46We need to dismantle the folk hero...
38:50...narrative...
38:50...and put the blood back on his hands.
38:53Not this time.
38:54What?
38:55What she said.
38:58Grayson wasn't the aggressor this time.
39:01This whole thing's...
39:03...when one fraud collided with another, if Henning in any way...
39:07...in any way can...
39:09...aspire...
39:10...to kill...
39:12Foster.
39:13Your self-defense goes out the window.
39:16Yeah, you...
39:17...you connect...
39:19...connect Henning...
39:21...to Timothy Fox...
39:23...I can put him away.
39:24Hm.
39:25Back to fraud number one.
39:30Joy of Joyce.
39:36Hey.
39:40How's, uh...
39:41How's Josh?
39:42He's scared.
39:46Adrian, these things that they're saying that you've done...
39:49...make it...
39:50...make sense.
39:52I was protecting us.
39:54Don't you dare.
39:55Remember the other night we were coming home from dinner...
39:57...and there was that guy out front of our house.
39:59You remember that?
40:00He was threatening us tomorrow.
40:02What?
40:03He threatened to hurt you and Josh.
40:04What?
40:06I need...
40:08...I need you to tell him what you saw.
40:10Okay?
40:15The bank's lawyers advise us not to talk to you guys.
40:17Oh, don't worry, you can tell the bank's lawyers that we're not...
40:19...talk about mortgage fraud.
40:20We're here to talk about two dead bodies.
40:22What was Adrian Henning's involvement with...
40:26...227 Alton Drive?
40:27Mr. Henning kept a close tab on that file.
40:29When the purchase agreement came in...
40:32...something agitated him.
40:33Something like a guy who couldn't spell his own last name?
40:36Is it normal for him to read purchase agreements?
40:38No.
40:38He's a manager.
40:40He doesn't handle customer transactions.
40:42Yet here he is going over this particular file with a magnifying glass.
40:45This one...
40:46...one mattered to him.
40:47Why?
40:49I don't know what to tell you.
40:50You make it all sound so dirty.
40:52It does sound dirty.
40:53We help people buy homes.
40:54People like Melissa Auerbach.
40:56A bartender just trying to build a life.
40:58Um...
40:59He...
41:05Henning discovered the seller was sketchy.
41:07He looked into him, found out he was an imposter.
41:09Yeah.
41:10He alerted Grayson.
41:11Told him to take care of it.
41:13Conspiracy to commit.
41:14If we can prove it.
41:18Yeah, excuse me, but, um...
41:21Henning told us that he was transferred to this branch a couple of years ago.
41:25Do you know where from?
41:26Uh, Wellington Street branch.
41:28Downtown.
41:28That's right across from the Harborview Lounge.
41:31We know it works there.
41:35We get all types of money guys at the bar.
41:39But...
41:40Adrian seemed different.
41:42He was open and...
41:44Curious.
41:45And married.
41:45And he never tried to hide that.
41:47We talked about it.
41:48The ups and downs.
41:50We talked about everything.
41:52Melissa, Adrian Henning has been accused of some very serious crimes.
41:58I'm still struggling to believe that.
42:00You don't think he's capable of such things?
42:03Maybe I didn't know him as well as I thought I did.
42:09I know how this sounds.
42:12But I'm not some deluded ex.
42:14I'm not pining.
42:18But our thing...
42:20While it lasted...
42:22I don't know.
42:24Adrian inspired me to...
42:27imagine...
42:28Imagine a life for myself.
42:30A bigger one.
42:32And I didn't need it to be real.
42:34But then...
42:35But then it became real.
42:36Yeah.
42:37You got pregnant.
42:37He got cold feet.
42:39Yeah.
42:40And you weren't about to be cast aside with nothing.
42:44I wasn't looking to punish him.
42:45I just wanted what he promised me.
42:48What he said...
42:51Sad was in reach.
42:53What was that?
42:55A home.
43:05Counselor.
43:06We've come across some new information and...
43:10I wanted to give Mr. Henning a chance to respond.
43:14Why is Mrs. Henning here?
43:16Mrs. Henning has some new information as well.
43:19We'd hope Forrester would be here.
43:21So we'll put this all to bed, but...
43:25Tomorrow.
43:27Uh...
43:28Six nights ago...
43:30Adrian, Josh and I were walking home from the restaurant...
43:33And this Jesse Grayson fellow...
43:36He threatened us.
43:38He threatened our son, Josh.
43:40And he threatened to kill us all.
43:43So whatever...
43:47...he did out of self-defense.
43:51Thank you, Mrs. Henning.
43:55Um...
43:56Would you, uh...
43:57Be prepared to say all that again in a court of law in front of a...
44:03...strangers, a jury of your peers, the press?
44:06Uh...
44:07Yes, because it's the...
44:10...truth...
44:10...truth.
44:12Uh...
44:13Mrs. Henning, would you mind excusing us?
44:15We have some...
44:20...matters to discuss with your husband.
44:25Uh...
44:26No...
44:26No, I'll stay.
44:30We don't have any secrets.
44:32Not anymore.
44:38Okay, uh...
44:39No secrets...
44:41Mr. Henning, who is...
44:45...to you?
44:49Uh...
44:52You spoke with her?
44:53We did.
44:55And...
44:55...you should know that if this case goes...
44:57...to trial, she will be...
44:59...called to testify.
45:00My client's relationship with...
45:02...Ms. Auer...
45:05Auerbach has...
45:06...no bearing.
45:07Sometimes the least of our sins speak the loudest, Mr. Henning.
45:12That's poetry, Detective.
45:14When your affair...
45:15...with...
45:16...Ms. Auer...
45:18Auerbach ended, uh...
45:19...you felt responsible.
45:21You wanted to...
45:22...help her out.
45:24But, uh...
45:25...you could...
45:26...buy a house for some bartender you'd knocked up.
45:32Sorry, I guess you left that part out.
45:35When you...
45:36...hel...
45:38...melissa and...
45:39...your baby...
45:40...you had to do it at arm's length.
45:42So you put...
45:44...her...
45:45...in time who could make that happen.
45:47Grayson doctored the papers and, um...
45:50...she got her mortgage.
45:52You could...
45:53...help her with the money and it all looked clean.
45:56But bad luck.
45:58Melissa tried to buy the house on Alton Drive...
46:01...where the seller was...
46:04...in a...
46:05...p...
46:06...and you caught the con just in time...
46:08...and informed Grayson to, uh...
46:13...take care of it.
46:14I just wanted the guy to back off and...
46:17...no, Grayson took it too far.
46:19Things were spiraling.
46:21Cops everywhere and your lies...
46:24...woven into this whole mess.
46:26Maybe he didn't go to Grayson's that night to kill him.
46:29I...
46:30...didn't.
46:31Maybe you just wanted him to...
46:32...smarten up.
46:33...shut down his operation.
46:36...
