station, they interrupt to say that there is a downtown murder in a law office. >> reporter: attorney prem burns was on her way into work. >> which, of course, alerts me. initially, my -- my gosh -- is it an attorney? >> reporter: the office, now strung with yellow crime scene tape, belonged to an up-and-comer named chiquita tate. a local woman just a few years out of law school, but already making a name for herself in the competitive, pads and helmets, arena of litigation and criminal defense. >> she had recently won a half-million dollar jury verdict. that's pretty good for somebody out such a short time. >> reporter: chiquita was one of seven, her father, absent, raised by her grandma in a tired neighborhood of boarded-up houses. smart and determined, she rose above her impoverished early years and once her fuse was lit, she became a rocket. >> she was talented.

she had overcome so very much in a short time period. she was the star of her family. >> reporter: chiquita was the first in her family to go to college. then she enrolled in hometown southern law school. got grabbed up by a law firm where she started clerking while studying for the bar. that's when she met legal assistant lessie hookfin. >> she was just driven, wanting to -- to get that next -- i'll call it that next high. and law school was that, being a lawyer was that. and she achieved it. >> reporter: she passed the bar on her first shot? >> on her first shot. >> reporter: she eagerly lapped up the hard cases, the kind that made news. accused killers, druggies, gang-bangers. she seemed at ease in the spotlight, happily talking to reporters. >> chiquita was enjoying such success, she opened her own firm

from the courts complex. lessie hookfin went with her. >> reporter: what areas did she start to stake out for herself? >> criminal. she wanted to do criminal so bad. >> reporter: prem burns watched her in action. chiquita was one to speak her mind and dress how she wanted in conservative lady lawyer pantsuits one day and stilettos and spiky hair the next. >> she would walk into a courtroom and she looked like she owned the place. >> reporter: you could hear her coming before you saw her, huh? >> you could, you could. and we always joked, because chiquita would wear four-inch heels and just strut in and you knew chiquita tate was in the courtroom. >> reporter: another thing, chiquita was all about family. she hired her sister denita to help in the office. and denita knew better than anyone that hard-driving chiquita could be sunny one minute and a gulf coast storm the next. >> she fired me, like, every week. >> reporter: she fired you? >> yeah, every week, and then, at night-- >> reporter: you were her office assistant.

night she will call me and say "we'll talk," and then she'd say, "see ya in the mornin'." i'm, like, "i thought i was fired." >> reporter: in fact, it was a skirmish with chiquita that sparked the interest of a young man named greg harris who, almost literally, bumped into her while they were both cruising around town. greg's brother mike says it started when greg cut chiquita off. >> she's in a corvette. he's in a mercedes. she's blowin' the horn at him and, you know, "oh, you -- you -- you don't cut me off." and so they pull up to the red light. and i heard a few smiles went from him, a few smiles went from her. and after that, it was all she wrote. >> reporter: greg harris was doing well as a contractor. the romance blossomed and chiquita moved into greg's home a big step up from the falling down neighborhood of shotgun houses where she grew up. they got married in a small wedding with family in 2008 and a year later chiquita was moving

proudly hanging out her shingle. >> reporter: did anybody ever worry about her and her clients? 'cause there were some tough -- >> i -- >> reporter: -- hombres that she was defending. >> there were. but i don't think that it was to the point where either she had to worry or anyone else had to worry. >> reporter: on february 19, 2009, chiquita was working hard, prepping her defense in a double homicide case. she told lessie she had to work late just a couple of hours, but chiquita never returned home that night. her husband greg called her office repeatedly but got no answer. around dawn he drove down to the office, troubled, he'd say later, to see his wife's hummer parked where she left it. he couldn't get in the locked building, so he called 911. >> um, my wife, um, she was working late last night, but i cant get inside the building. i need a cop over here quick. >> reporter: greg suddenly spotted a patrol car and flagged it down. an office worker let the policeman in the building while

denita. >> and he was, like, "d, the hummer is still parked here. and they won't let me in the office." >> reporter: once upstairs, it took only a glance for the patrol officer to declare chiquita's office a crime scene, a bad one. the shining starlight of chiquita tate had been cruelly extinguished. by whom? and for what reason? >> when we come back, the first clues. >> no blood in the elevator, no blood on the lobby. her left hand was opened. there was a piece of hair in it. i was like, "oh, my lord."

>> reporter: as the sun was coming up over the mississippi that cold february morning, the family and friends of chiquita tate were converging on the street below her office. >> so i tried to run in the office, and the police grabbed me. they was, like, "ma'am, you can't go in there." i say, "that's my sister in there." >> reporter: just like denita, chiquita's legal assistant lessie hookfin was stopped on the street outside by an officer. >> and he saw me coming.

because i was going down. and that's when he told me she was dead. >> reporter: chiquita's loved ones were huddled together when veteran homicide detectives chris johnson and elvin howard rolled up to the scene. >> so the responding officers told you, "that's the husband over there," but he's on the edge of things for you. you haven't approached him yet?" >> that's -- that's correct. >> he was upset to the point where uniform patrol had to put him in the back of the unit. >> so do you go up at the point? >> no. at that time, we try to gather as much information as possible. >> reporter: the detectives began their standard investigative ritual -- putting together a timeline of the victim's last day. assistant lessie hookfin knew some of it. >> so that thursday, how does that fit in your recollection? what was that day like? >> pretty regular day. >> reporter: chiquita had gone to court and that very day talked to reporters about her latest case. >> the statute is the question that i would like the appellate

>> reporter: after a quick chat, she headed back to her office where workers were refinishing a bookcase. lessie left at her regular time, about 5:30. and she remembers being concerned about the smell of varnish . >> i said, "quita, don't stay in here too late," because the smell was just overpowering. she said, "less, i'm not gonna stay in here late. i'm just gonna read this." >> reporter: but she did stay late. chiquita's husband greg told police his wife called him around 7:00 or so and asked him to please bring her something to eat, so he set out from their home in baker, about 25 minutes away. >> then he said he went to mcdonald's in baker and got some hamburgers and fries and brought it to chiquita in her office. chiquita met him downstairs, according to greg, and let him into the building, because at 5:30 in the evening until 7:30 in the next morning the building is locked. >> and unless you have a swipe card, you can't get access. >> exactly. >> reporter: greg told the cops he encountered a number of tenants in the building working late that night.

he remembered running downstairs on a small errand for his wife. >> yeah. chiquita had a client that was coming over to pick up some money. so he went downstairs to pay this client and pick up some paperwork from this person for chiquita. >> reporter: greg said chiquita had more work to do and yet another client to see, so he took off for home he said. it was sometime around 8:30. what happened next was a bloody mystery. it would be up to the detectives and also prem burns to figure out. the attorney hearing the awful news on her car radio that morning -- the one who got such a kick out of chiquita in court was, in fact, a legendary baton rouge prosecutor. >> my boss, the district attorney, was out there. there were so many police officers there, the crime scene van was there.

immediately said to my boss, "i want this. i want this case." >> reporter: prem insisted -- as she always does -- on viewing the crime scene. as she entered the office she noticed chiquita had been fixing things up. >> but then, when you proceeded into the next room where her body was, i was like, "oh, my lord." she was butchered. she was butchered. she was laying on the floor. she had little slipper socks on her feet, the way all of us would be if we stay after work. we're not going to keep our heels on. she basically had a law book that i think she had been reading that was in her hands at the time the attack began. >> reporter: chiquita had been stabbed 43 times. the attack was brutal and messy, the bloodstained wall suggesting a fight to the death. >> did you have a murder weapon? >> no, we didn't. >> reporter: did you get lucky with a footprint or a partial print or anything in blood? anything like that? >> no, we did not get lucky with a footprint. >> no blood in the elevator, no blood in the lobby, no blood on the buttons. >> reporter: the killer had improbably vanished without

and at first glance, hadn't taken anything either. >> had the office been trashed? had anybody been looking through files or something like that? >> no. >> no. >> we didn't see that. >> she had expensive jewelry still on her -- on her hands. she had earrings in her ear. so it -- it def -- >> so this is starting to tell you some stuff about the nature of this killing, huh? >> that's correct. >> reporter: it didn't look like a robbery. however, as crime scene techs processed the scene, the investigators realized chiquita's wallet was missing from her purse. and there, in the victim's hand, what looked like a major clue. >> and her left hand was opened, there was a piece of hair in it. not -- actually, 91 strands of hair in it. and her right arm was over her head and she just -- she just died like that. >> reporter: had she pulled it from her killer's head? the hair was long. had the killer been a woman? >> what were your theories? what did you think? >> i actually, uh, did not come to any conclusions because i

would've wanted her dead. >> reporter: chiquita's father-in-law, silver ray harris, admired her courage, but wondered about the kind of clients who came with her line of work. >> bein' a criminal lawyer, that's what you deal with, criminals. so you have to accept a degree of bad people. they come lookin' for -- >> for the toughest of the tough, huh? >> that's what i hear. that she would -- she'd -- if you went to her, she'd try to help you. >> could have been an unhappy client. >> could well have been -- >> someone who didn't like the results that they got from her. >> could have been. or could have been a member of the victim's family. >> reporter: the list of potential suspects could be as long as her client list. yet, chiquita's brother-in-law says he can't understand how anyone could do such a thing. >> heartless. completely. to do her that way. when i get on my knees at night, i pray he'll get justice. >> reporter: police were confident they would get their man or woman. and something up a street pole

outside chiquita's office were city surveillance cameras and traffic cams. did one of several cameras see someone enter after greg left? there may not have been a trail of blood, but with a little luck, those cameras just might give them a portrait of their killer, or killers, suitable for framing. coming up -- >> she sees the wallet on the side of the road. >> the missing wallet and that mystery clump of hair. what might it reveal? >> if you're in a fight and pull someone's hair out, you're going to find root hairs. >> so the scenario that occurs to me is that this is a woman cooking thanksgiving dinner for your family can be stressful. we'll show you some gadgets you might want to get your hands on to help you out. and there's a neeatment if you're looking to lose weight fast. we'll tell you how you can make

>> reporter: chiquita tate's vicious killing -- stabbed and slashed dozens of times -- had shaken her friends and family to their very roots. and as an officer of the courts, it was also an attack on baton rouge's criminal justice system

johnson and howard to find the killer. >> you're looking at the poles around here. what was that, chris? >> yeah, the crime cameras. we know that most of baton rouge has crime cameras and there are several locations. and across from the office there is a crime camera right there on the pole. >> we also have the traffic cameras that are on each signal light. >> there are some right there. >> yes, that's correct. >> so you could get really lucky maybe. >> yeah, hopefully. >> and get the perpetrator coming or going. >> that's correct. >> reporter: this camera, about a block away from chiquita's office, was working fine. it showed a quiet street the night of the killing. normal activity. what they really wanted was the shot from this camera, which swept right pass chiquita's office door. but bad luck. a recent storm had knocked it out. >> the camera in front of the office was not working properly on that particular night. >> reporter: so no picture of a suspect. this wasn't going to be an open-shut solve. but there was evidence to work with.

the crime scene technician had taken scrapings from under chiquita's fingernails and sent them off for lab analysis. had she scratched dna material from her killer? they'd have to wait on findings. and likewise the clump of hair found in chiquita's hand. did it contain dna identifying the killer? >> if you're in a fight and -- and pull someone's hair out -- >> yeah. >> you're gonna find root hairs, hair balls. >> reporter: but, the lab work was back on the hair sample. there were no roots on those strands. but the hair had come from a woman's hair extension or a weave. >> so the scenario that occurs to me is that this is a woman that's in this assault-- >> exactly. >> -- two women are fighting and she's gotten a bit of this weave and yanked it -- >> exactly. >> reporter: the theory of two women in a death struggle didn't make sense to the cops. the attack seemed too violent, too overwhelming. but with homicides, you never know. in the early hours of the investigation though, they did catch a major break. a report had come into dispatch. a woman driving through a high-crime area known as gardere

lane called police to say she'd found a wallet. and it belonged to chiquita tate. >> she's driving down gardere lane and she sees the wallet on the side of the road. >> reporter: amazingly enough, the finder of the wallet knew chiquita. the young attorney had given a speech at her daughter's school and made quite an impression. >> that prompted her to call the police and advise us that she -- she located this wallet. >> reporter: and unexpectedly for a wallet taken from a victim's purse and then tossed, chiquita's id and her credit cards were all inside, which got investigators thinking. maybe the killer planted the wallet there, hoping some street person would find it and stumble right into a homicide investigation. >> when you take a nice gucci wallet, loaded with credit cards, to gardere lane and leave it in the streets, somebody's going to pick it up and start going to the mall, spending some of those credit cards. and the first thing that's going

to happen is that the police are going to have a film of the transaction and go to that person and say, "you killed chiquita tate." >> there's our suspect. >> absolutely. >> reporter: so, this killer unknown started taking on some traits in the detectives' minds. the person was good or lucky enough to get out of the office building without leaving a trail of blood, and after what had to have been a frenzied attack, still had the composure to think up the red herring of the tossed wallet. the killer looked like a cool customer. perhaps a professional? as the cops went down the list of dubious characters on her client roster, they looked closely at two men who had been accused of killing a man and his 17-year old son. possible suspects? >> one of 'em actually was in jail at the time of the -- of the homicide and it just was very unlikely that -- that someone who -- who she worked so hard for would kill her. >> reporter: a few of the people on chiquita's client list were

others had alibis. but she also had clients who were free to come and go. did one of them have an appointment? >> was there anybody due to come in that evening? >> no. >> far as you recall -- >> not after -- not after hours. >> after hours? >> no. that would've been very unusual. and i would've known. >> reporter: a mystery client with the worst of grudges? a woman unknown? only theories, until the cops play poker with a witness and hit the jackpot when they're only holding a pair of deuces. coming up -- two new clues. a revealing recording and a revealing phone call with a jaw-dropping tip for police. >> this is a voice saying, "i think i know who may have killed chiquita."
