Da Vinci’s Inquest - Season 2 Episode 8

Adolescent Byron Mizlowski is found dead on the shores of Burrard Inlet. It looks as if he either jumped or was pushed off the Ironworker's Memorial Bridge. Byron was a bright and responsible child and his parents gave him much leeway. They think that his biological father may have something to do with the death as Byron was physically abused by him in the past. However Patricia discovers in the autopsy that Byron was also sexually abused, as recent as the night of his death. Det. Bobby Marlowe from Sex Crimes thinks this case is linked to his case involving alleged sexual molestation of children by Byron's band teacher, Richard Zeto. Marlowe has a victim, Ryner Paget, who is remembering the sexual molestation incidents after the fact. To appease the territorial issue between Homicide and Sex Crimes, Da Vinci suggests he seize Zeto's property under the Coroner's Act to share between the investigators. After formally talking to Zeto, the authorities have much evidence against him but not enough to convict on any of the supposed charges. Once news spreads within the community of the investigation against Zeto, other evidence surfaces. Tragic consequences occur before the authorities discover who killed Byron. Meanwhile, Leary investigates a blood spattered apartment but no body. And Winston has a hit and run dead body. They don't yet know that they two are related.
