Short summary

Devlin and Brooks investigate the murder of a young girl, 10 year-old Jodie Gaines, who was kidnapped some two weeks before and has now been located, dead, in a rubbish bin. Witnesses on the day of the kidnapping reported seeing a white van in the area and they soon arrest Nick Carlton who is charged with murder. He is no sooner released on bail that he is killed by the dead girl's grieving mother, Kayleigh, a recovering drug addict who is separated from her husband who had formal custody of the child. Crown prosecutor James Steel seeks a murder conviction, even though he knows that Kayleigh will likely have the sympathy of the court. When it appears that Kayleigh is to be set free, Devlin and Brooks uncover a crucial piece of information.

Nicholas Carlton was born on October 19, 1974 and was murdered on May 20, 2009.

    A mixed-race parents, just divorced, were making a public statement on TV about her missing daughter. Meanwhile, two Latvian guys were looking for scraping metal in a dump when they bumped into a child dead body. Detectives soon try to realize the victim whereabouts the day she disappeared. A cab took her from school to a guitar lesson but, due to traffic jam, the driver left her a block before. Thanks to a CCTV camera, Brooks and Devlin presume she was kidnapped by a white van owned by a glazier company. Shortly after they catch the kidnapper, but after he is bailed out the child's mother (Anna Madeley) stabs him dead outside the courthouse. You could think she's an hero, as reported by the press, but the truth is much different.

    This episode shows us that sometimes even a disturbed junkie can mock Criminal Justice System; law has to be followed, almost till a suspect is convicted by a jury, otherwise we run the time machine back to Far West.
