11:02 pm
watch farther south because the heat is going to continue. we topped out at 103 degrees. that's a new record for the day. and right now we're at 94 outside. and take a look at this. pretty incredible. when you factor in the high dew points, it feels like 99 degrees in baltimore, 102 at 11:00 at night. this is some intense heat. still baking a lot of the country. tomorrow gets a little bit closer. not only is it going to be hot but we have the threat for severe thunderstorms. there's a slight risk of severe weather for the entire state. the boundary is stalling out over the region. off to the north, a lot of reports of wind damage and that's the biggest threat tomorrow as it comes our way. the front slowly tries to come through. on the cooler side of things we

overweight, overpriced. too damn old. what, so you're saying they should have kept marion? that's exactly what i'm saying. marion, nash, stoudemire. well, that's a team. yeah, same team that couldn't even make it past the first round. captioning made possible by touchstone television and cbs inc. [accelerating] [tires squealing] whoa. what is it? where are we? what? i'm asking you, where are we? i don't know. sixth and... buckeye? [tires squealing] wrong. we were on sixth 8 blocks ago. well, so what? what are we doing back here? we're learning. now, where are we? [dog barking in distance] [sighs] i don't know. you've got to know. you always, always have got to know where you are. i mean, let's just say you jump out of the car and run after some maggot. this thing can't help you. back-up will wind up at the car 5 blocks away. won't do you much good, now will it? no, sir. don't sir me. sir's for the academy.
11:05 pm
i'm your partner. yes, sir--uh, right. dispatch: four-fifteen frank, 4129 23rd avenue. repeat, four-fifteen frank in progress at 4129 23rd. that's domestic violence. tell them we're on it. uh, copy that. damn it. my flashlight. are you kidding me? hurry up! [sighs] oh, my god! officer down, officer down! dispatch: copy that, officer. what's your 20?
11:06 pm
we're at 23rd street! officer? back-up is on the way. 907-- [gunshots] all units, 4129 23rd avenue... earlier this evening, the phoenix police force lost two of our own. sergeant manuel rodriguez and officer thomas kayser were killed in the line of duty. [click] that's 3 officers in the past 4 days. after the first shooting, the phoenix police department assumed gang involvement. pretty reasonable assumption. true. almost 30% of all officer slayings are gang related. technically it's closer to 40%. if a cop isn't killed during a commission of a crime, gang involvement is highly likely. actually, their precinct commander believes it may be a serial and has asked for our help. what makes him doubt the gang theory? a couple of things. last night's victims were killed exactly the same way as the first. shot in the neck. something that the press didn't release. well, now, wait. there could still be a gang behind this. killers working together could establish the same m.o. commander marks hasn't ruled it out, but there's another detail-- trophies.

it truly provides a better clean. trust the brand more dentists and hygienists use. oral-b. the new pro-health clinical brush from oral-b. two flexing sides, one superior clean. with oral-b, life opens up when you do. i've been fortunate to win on golf's biggest stages. but when joint pain and stiffness from psoriatic arthritis hit, even the smallest things became difficult. i finally understood what serious joint pain is like. i talked to my rheumatologist and he prescribed enbrel. enbrel can help relieve pain, stiffness, and stop joint damage. because enbrel, etanercept, suppresses your immune system, it may lower your ability to fight infections. serious, sometimes fatal events including infections, tuberculosis, lymphoma, other cancers, and nervous system and blood disorders have occurred. before starting enbrel, your doctor should test you for tuberculosis and discuss whether you've been to a region where certain fungal infections are common. don't start enbrel if you have an infection like the flu. tell your doctor if you're prone to infections, have cuts or sores, have had hepatitis b,
11:10 pm
have been treated for heart failure, or if, while on enbrel, you experience persistent fever, bruising, bleeding, or paleness. [ phil ] get back to the things that matter most. ask your rheumatologist if enbrel is right for you. [ doctor ] enbrel, the number one biolog medicine prescribed by rheumatologists.

and its wet mopping cloths can clean better in half the time. mom? ♪ ahhhh! ahhhh! no it's mommy! [ female announcer ] swiffer. better clean in half the time. or your money back. ♪ "we are all brothers under the skin, and i for one would be willing to skin humanity to prove it." ayn rand. hotchner: go ahead, garcia. ok, while you birds have been in the air, i got the 411 on the first shooting.
11:12 pm
apparently, every saturday night, phoenix p.d. sets up a dui checkpoint. prentiss: is that common knowledge? mais, oui. public awareness is part of the deterrent. so our unsub blows past said checkpoint at 90 mph, and is pursued by a officer jason kessinger. kessinger pulls the car over, approaches the driver's side window, where he is shot in the throat. mon dieu. he was a single parent, 2 daughters. rossi: so, the unsub planned ahead, used the dui stop to set his trap, and then lured the officer to his death. it could have been personal. the unsub might have had a problem with these particular officers. or with law enforcement in general. he's sending a message. reid: criminals, gang members, academy washouts, security rent a cops, teenagers, and that's just a start. i mean, the list of people who have a problem with police officers is a long one. the victims were shot in the neck, so the unsub knew they'd be wearing body armor. and he used a dui checkpoint. i mean, both incidents show an active understanding of police procedure. which narrows it down to anybody who watches television.
11:13 pm
we need to cover victimology. garcia, find out everything you can about the officers killed. see what they had in common besides their uniforms. will do, but i should warn you, it will not be cake because i have been on the phone with these guys all morning, and pulling files from them has been like pulling molars. hotchner: is there a problem? you know, aside from the obvious grief for their fallen compadres, and their fear of being used as target practice, i get the distinct impression from their crabby behavior, they are none too pleased their boss is outsourcing this investigation to the fbi, so...be prepared to hit a blue wall of resistance. commander marks, i'm ssa hotchner. this is agent todd. hi. agents rossi, prentiss, morgan, and dr. spencer reid. thank you for inviting us. and thank you all for coming. although i'd like to have a word if you don't mind. of course. excuse me. uh, lieutenant evans. lieutenant evans will answer any questions the rest of you may have. i'll call you later. this way. sorry, that was officer kayser's wife. they'd only been married a couple of months.
11:14 pm
she seems to think that the fbi is here to save the day. is that what you're going to do, agents? i apologize. it turns out i may have wasted your time. ballistics came back. both .357 magnums, but not a match. looks like we're talking about 2 different shooters after all. we don't think so. really? well, everyone here is pretty convinced this is the beginning of a gang war. no, i understand that you could see it that way, but we believe that the shootings are indicative of a single killer, one who's not a gang member. you're saying one shooter, multiple weapons. that's the theory. both attacks were detailed, well planned out traps, not typical for a gang hit. and the trophy taking suggests serial pathology, as well. all right, look, i know i called you guys in, but i am way out on a limb here. my officers feel like it's a betrayal, like i don't trust them to find this son of a bitch. i gotta get this settled fast before this whole department comes unglued. look, i get it. we're only here to help and not hijack the investigation. but if our theory is correct, the unsub's already looking
11:15 pm
for another excuse to kill again. [sighs] see, this is twelve's territory. and you think they're behind this? does it matter? yes, it matters to us, lieutenant. you know this city and its gangs better than we do. we'd like to hear your theories. ok, twelves has a captain. street name playboy. vice broke up a drug ring. shot his brother, d.o.a. playboy thought he would kill us all. well, it is pretty strong motivation, but your commander said the dash cam only showed one attacker. most 'bangers will bring some back-up just in case. well, playboy runs the toughest crew in town. he's not "most 'bangers." well, you said the dash cam only showed one attacker. why show your face at all? because he had to. he wanted to take them both out at the house, but they broke protocol. rodriguez approached the house by himself. wait a minute. are you telling me they screwed up? no, lieutenant, i'm saying that they split up, forcing the unsub to take them out separately, one here at the house and one at the car. that front unit's empty. he could have set himself up there and waited. the element of surprise was on his side. morgan: choice of neighborhood was deliberate. neighbors around here are used to hearing gunfire.
11:16 pm
they'll blame it on the gangs, and so will the police. techs have gone over this frame by frame. there's no way to identify the shooter. approximate height and weight, that's about all we got. the unsub's face isn't the only way to identify him. we also look at specific behavioral traits. these are the reasons you don't believe it's a gang? the shooter established what we call a signature, something he did during the murders that wasn't actually necessary. not part of his m.o., but identical in every attack. reid: in this case, the unsub took the officer's badges. he's symbolically stripping them of their power and authority. this act is indicative of someone who is looking to gain self-esteem. gang members and other assailants who work together kill for different reasons, but usually it's not to gain confidence, 'cause they already have it. hotch, you see that? can we pause this? ok, now zoom in and press play. taking the badge would have taken a few seconds. he's lingering. doing what?
11:17 pm
that's a good question. prentiss: at least now, everyone with force knows he's out there. it'll be harder for him to lure someone into his trap. well, not necessarily. being a cop is always dangerous, but even with the extra back-up and rover cars added to the shifts, phoenix p.d.'s still going to have to do their job. which means walking into a potential ambush every time they take a call. dispatch: 245 in progress, 106 east broadway road. repeat, 245, report of an aggravated assault. copy that. behind the car. oh, yeah. looks like a couple of bums. yep. hey, police! clear out of here!

11:24 pm
we knew he was out there, he still managed to set us up. i'm sorry. i watched my partner die, and i couldn't do anything to save him. don't worry, ron. playboy's going to pay for this. you saw playboy there? no, but-- we all know he did it, agent. no, we don't. lieutenant, you think i don't know how bad you want this guy? i was a uniform just like you. i saw a lot of cops go down. before that, i watched my father get shot. he was killed doing his job, a cop's job, so don't think i don't know. officer mercer, what happened when you got the call? [inhales] nothing special. report of an aggravated assault. we were on it. this your regular beat? we were additional tonight, added because of the shootings. did you get a look at the guy? nothing.
11:25 pm
i was too damn scared. i'm still scared. you're not the only one. what am i going to tell them?rtner's family. the only thing you can tell them-- that we're going to catch the guy who did this. but the right guy. anything? we can forget cross referencing. these guys were just assigned this beat. there's no way the unsub could have known they'd get the call. he's using the 9-1-1 calls like a lottery. he's picking cops at random. and yet there's nothing random about the shootings. each scenario has been increasingly complex. he's enjoying the hunt. taking the time to set his victims up
11:26 pm
and luring them into his net. it's become as important to him as the kill itself. and this last one he executed while the fbi and every cop in the city was after him. and the press... their attention's feeding him. playing right into the unsub's need to feel superior. the press is not our only problem. these guys are still trying to pin the shootings on a gangbanger named playboy. i have a feeling we're not going to be able to hold them off much longer. [indistinct rap music playing] hello, playboy. what the hell, man? let's go spend some quality time together. time for what? whatever you got, i didn't do it. mm-hmm. yeah. lighten up, man. i'm telling you, i didn't do it. yeah? well, i got a magic eight ball that says you did, playboy. commander, what's going on? what's going on is my officers are being shot in the streets
11:27 pm
and crucified by the press. that's what's going on. so you've arrested the wrong person? i brought in a viable subject for questioning. i had to do something. i didn't kill no cop. period. sure, playboy. just cross your heart, and we're done. commander, i understand the pressure you're under, but doing this could undermine the investigation. bringing in another suspect draws attention away from the real unsub. if he starts to feel inadequate, he may strike sooner just to prove himself. it's also possible accusing one of their members could antagonize local gangs, which is the last thing your officers need to be worrying about right now. all right, look. i told you guys i was out on a limb here, so unless you have a suspect... hotch. since we've got this guy, why don't we see if we can use him? you mind if talk to him? be my guest. commander, i appreciate your letting agent morgan join the interrogation, but i promise you, this is not our unsub. the real killer's still out there.
11:28 pm
i know you didn't do it, playboy. so why you dragging my ass in here, then? i said i know you didn't kill those cops, but he doesn't. and they don't. and trust me, they don't care, man. but you do. oh, you care about me. i don't give a damn about you. [chair scrapes] tell you what i do care about. catching the killer. i told you, i didn't do it. but i think you know who did. no way, man. it wasn't one of us. ok. i'll give you that. whoever did do this ain't no 'banger. but he's been working your hood pretty tough, though, huh? without your say. he's making you look real suspect, playboy. causing you nothing but trouble. he won't last long, then. [chuckles] come on, man, look around you. from where i'm sitting, it looks like he's doing all right so far. i mean, if i'm you, i'm thinking i want this guy gone for good. what you think? yeah.
11:29 pm
you know so much. who is he? probably somebody you'd least suspect. probably wouldn't even think twice about him 'cause he really don't look all that dangerous. well, at least not on the surface. but he gets real violent. well, we all violent. no, no, no, not like this, man. this cat goes from cold to hot in a heartbeat, nothing in between. takes everything real personal. thinks everybody's trying to put him down, so he's always looking for a fight, even if he knows he's going to lose. so he's stupid. maybe. but he's aggressive. think, man. you give me something, maybe i get you out of all of this. he's white. he's older than you, not by much. and he works alone. you know somebody like this, i know you do. [groans] there was this guy... he was white.
11:30 pm
he killed me lieutenant a couple of months ago. bobby q. yeah. he was like my brother. yeah, your brother was a junkie, so was bobby q. i see the similarity. hey, hey, hey, hey! sit down, sit down! don't even think about it. talk to me. hey. forget him. i'm helping you, he's not. all right. your lieutenant, bobby q. what happened? well, i told the cops it wasn't a gang thing. they didn't believe me. yeah, that's 'cause you always tell us the truth, don't you, playboy? i'm serious, man. playboy, don't do it. so who killed him? if i knew his name, he'd be dead already.
11:31 pm
there's been another shooting. i'll cut him loose. no. not yet. hotch, this guy knows something. all right, keep working on it. [indistinct chatter] they have the shooter cornered in an apartment building downtown. dave, stay with morgan, see what this guy has to offer. prentiss, you're with me. [siren] [tires squealing] evans: he's in there? selby: yeah, we got him cornered. men on both floors and the entrances. you know this guy? yeah, a banger called diablo. he's one of the lindo park assassins. daws followed him here. evans: he all right? he'll live. he's a lucky bastard. we'd like to talk to daws, if you don't mind. all right, ok, stay down.
11:32 pm
sergeant daws. i'm special agent emily prentiss, this is ssa hotchner. what happened? he killed my partner. we're sorry. we were stopped at a light. bastard came right up to the window. shot scotty in the head, then shot me. wait a minute. there was no radio call? no. came out of nowhere. [groans] guess he thought he'd bagged us both. luckily, a truck came. he ran. i called it in, managed to tail him here. ok, thank you, sergeant. it doesn't track. no, it was a blitz attack. let's go. let us go in and try to talk him down. no, hold on. what's going on? i've got movement. looks like ramey and wilhelm are inside the apartment. attempting to apprehend. [gunshot]
11:33 pm
before i started taking abilify, i was taking an antidepressant alone. most days i could get out from under and carry on. but other days i still struggled with my depression. i was handling it... but sometimes it still dragged me down. i'd been feeling stuck for a long time. so i talked to my doctor and she added abilify to my antidepressant. she said it could help with my depression, and that some people had symptom improvement as early as 1 to 2 weeks. i'm glad i talked to her. i wish i'd done it sooner. now i feel more in control of my depression. [ female announcer ] abilify is not for everyone. call your doctor if your depression worsens or you have unusual changes in behavior, or thoughts of suicide. antidepressants can increase these in children, teens, and young adults. elderly dementia patients taking abilify have an increased risk of death or stroke. call your doctor if you have high fever, stiff muscles, and confusion to address a possible life-threatening condition.
11:34 pm
or if you have uncontrollable muscle movements, as these could become permanent. high blood sugar has been reported with abilify and medicines like it and in extreme cases can lead to coma or death. other risks include increased cholesterol, weight gain, decreases in white blood cells, which can be serious, dizziness on standing, seizures, trouble swallowing, and impaired judgment or motor skills. depression was always hanging over me. then my doctor added abilify to my antidepressant. now i feel better. [ female announcer ] if you're still struggling with depression talk to your doctor to see if the option of adding abilify is right for you. and be sure to ask about the free trial offer. if the option of adding abilify is right for you. great! tyler here will show you everything. check out our new mobile app. now you can use your phone to scan your car's vin or take a picture of your license. it's an easy way to start a quote. watch this -- flo, can i see your license? no. well, all right. thanks. okay, here we go. whoa!
