Come on, Cassey, another
straight after hours.
You've been on your feet
whole day!
No, thanks Joey.
I've got a day job too.
-Are you sure I can't give you a lift?
-I'd rather face the muggers.
Come on! Gimme your
money! Sweetheart!
I worked whole for these tips,
and I don't leave it.
Officer!
Officer!
Officer!
Officer!
Officer! Thank God its you!
just trying to mug me....
I swear to god!
It was a cop with a knife.
It was a cop, a big cop.
I hate the smell
of these places.
Good morning.
So...
Well, We have a C-2...
C-3 fracture dislocation...
The head was unstable and there
was a desolvation injury...
The residual hanging...
...where the head just "popped"
That's not what is interesting.
What's interesting is we
also have a crushed larynx.
The head's just flopping.
You're tryin' to tell
me two kids did this?
I just got a statement from an eyewitness
said he saw the kids attack her.
Can't you cover her face?
Her name's
Cassey Philips
I used to go in her place for a nightcap.
nice sense of humor.
I always told her she ought to...
... audition for one of those comedy joints.
All the more reason I was thinking
Don't pass out on me Lovejoy.
Take a look at the size...
of those hematomas.
You think I don't want those two
kids could have done that?
a cop did this?
Why not? She knew me,
she knew a lot of cops.
What's the use? Let's go.
I think I need some fresh air.
You must've been so
afraid Cassey...
... And you saw a cop.
So we just about closed that club. .
You're not kidding.
Sam, wath the lights!
What's the matter with this thing?
Its quite broken or something.
Relax.
What's the hurry?
Oh, sh*t, its a cop. Ditch that beer.
- Where did he come from?
- I don't know, I don't know.
Alright, what seems to be
the trouble, officer?
to go with him!
What for?
I don't know. You just better
cooperate, alright?
I can't stand any more tickets.
My insurance will go up.
Yeah.
Commissioner. Detective Lt.
Mc Crae is here to see you.
Send him in.
Have a seat, Lieutenant.
Lieutenant, I've been going
over your report.
Seems you automatically assume ,
that it was a police officer,
instead of some ...
lunatic son of a b*tch dressed
up like a cop.
He didn't kill the girl.
He wanted a witness.
Oh, there you are.
Obviously, someone tried
to discredit the police force.
I mean if its my profile
for not to be a cop.
All the same I think, we have to take a
look at around people.
I'd like to have police psychologist give a
rundown on cops who've been under...
mental disturbance,
attempted suicide,
under extreme emotional stress.
Sure, why don't we just test the
whole damn force while you're at it?
Otherwise, We're looking for a
white man well over six feet tall,
wears a police uniform,
doesn't have an alibi.
I don't know where to start to
look, Commissioner!
Listen, I want you to keep this
within the department. Keep it quiet.
As long as we can...
but he will kill again,
he enjoys killing.
You know Lieutenant, You seem to
know a hell of a lot about this guy.
Tell me something, when was the
last time you had a mental test?
Anytime, Commissioner.
As a matter of fact, didn't you try to
shoot yourself a couple of years back?
The gun went off.
The gun went off.
Exactly, ten days after your
partner was killed in the line of duty ...
your gun just happens to ...
discharge all by itself.
You've been even killed in every
sense,
Even now,
You don't smile very much.
Hey! What you!
This is my car!
Help! please help!
Help!
Help me!
Help!
Please! Help me! Please!
This is not funny! Stop it!
Help me!
I'm so suprised
when you called.
I didn't think we will see
each other again.
I see you on the news,
in the end of each night.
Just before I shut off the lights.
How romantic.
Gina, this is'nt about romance.
about murder.
People have to be warned.
Most people, they respect the uniform.
They do anything the cop tells them,
Including take a walk up a dark alley.
Who is he killing?
Pushers? Hustlers?
Innocent people.
Jesus! Maniac cop?
How's that for a tag?
to sensationalizing the best way.
Now you got to make it bigger than AIDS.
Its the only way to city hall
off their ass.
You're ready to go
on the line on this?
Be quoted directly?
I'm ready to hand you an
exclusive on this...
... But I want you break it on the
late news show tonight.
Okay, I'll need a backup on every detail,
names of witnesses, specifics from...
Find everything you
need right there.
Mc Crea, remember ...
I owe you one.
You don't owe me anything.
This report was informed by the source
within the New York Police department...
... of attempts by the Homicide Division...
to suppress facts regarding three recent homicides.
Facts and witnesses to these murders point
unmistakably to a uniformed police officer.
I repeat, a uniformed New York cop
has been seen in the commission...
of these brutal killings occuring on
the streets of the city after dark.
The question this station wants answered,
why has Commissioner Pike
withheld these facts,
and does the Mayor know what
is going on in his city?
How can the public defend themselves
if they're unaware...
...that one of New York's finest may
indeed be a psychopath...
whose intent is to kill them
rather than protect them?
Tomorrow on the morning show,
we will have an interview with...
...Detective Lt. Frank Mc Crae McCrae who
is in charge of the investigation.
was ordered not to speak to the press.
You're not gonna get me!
Anybody who wants to shoot a cop these
days has got a helluva excuse.
Can you believe that?
She thought he was the
f***ing the maniac.
Look. We've received 700 letters
accusing individual police officers.
Look Councillor,
A cop gives you a parking ticket
so what you do naturally...
...you write in a letter accusing
him of being the killer. Right?
Sh*t! Why does that have to happen
4 weeks before of my retirement?
We're all in trouble, Captain.
Tourism's off by 38 percent.
This nut must be quite, he is costing the
taxpayers bringings every day.
Ripley, If you can't handle this, put in
for early retirement and step down.
No way, Councillor.
I want to nail this bastard.
Pretty sharp.
He'll be one step ahead of me.
If I stake out
Tribecca and Soho,
he strikes the east side.
He may be getting information
from inside the department.
That means he is one of us.
I didn't know you were
on duty tonight.
Yeah, With all the flu going around,
they had to put a lot of us on overtime.
Always at night.
It worries me when you
work so much at night.
Worries me too.
You don't talk about it much.
When I come home,
i wanna forget.
But it makes me
feel left out, Jack.
You used to talk to me.
Look, You're the one who
