[CAMERA SHUTTER CLICKS]
I'm investigating Sean
for sex trafficking.
This is my child! How dare you!
There are girls out there
who are being hurt right now,
and we're running out of time.
According to every report I've read,
you have nothing
because there's nothing there.
He did rehab in Waunakee?
He spent his summers up there
with his dad, up at the cabin.
Maybe this is where it all started?

This way.

We don't have an ID yet.
M.E. thinks the body's a decade old.
Whoever buried her used chemicals.
Lye, bleach, hydroxide.
Knew how to destroy evidence.
Learned that somewhere.
Patty, your son led us to her.
Sean is involved in this.
You can't protect him.
And you can't save him from this.
Help me bring in Sean now.
[SCOFFS]
He's my son. You're not bringing him in.

Boss.
All right, tell me where we're at.
We got an ID.
Body's that of Jodie Brown.
Listen, I'm going to put you on speaker.
All right, so Jodie was 12 years old
when she was reported missing
15 years ago out of Waunakee.
Family IDed her
off her shoes and bracelet.
We're waiting on dental to confirm.
Jodie lived about a mile
from that cabin.
She have contact with Sean?
Her parents don't remember the O'Neals,
but they said that
before she went missing,
she was hanging with a new crowd.
Yeah. New crowd, older kids.
The mom thought they were teenagers.
Sean was around 17 then, Sarge.
Jodie disappeared August 15.
Now Chief O'Neal was in Houston
at a police conference,
but we haven't confirmed
Sean's whereabouts as of yet.
M.E. couldn't rule sexual assault,
couldn't rule time of death,
but could rule cause of death.
It was a cracked hyoid.
Sean strangled her.
All right, keep moving.
Call ahead to ASA Chapman.
Let her know I'm coming.
All right, I'm on it.
If we want to get the
charges for the murder,
then we need to connect
Sean directly to that cabin
and directly to Jodie.
Real, physical evidence,
above and beyond the shadow of a doubt.
Okay, Sean used lye and bleach.
DNA's all gone now.
We've got no cams, no GPS, no tolls.
Cabin was in the middle of nowhere.
It was 15 years ago.
So right now, we got no witnesses,
no way to tie Sean to the location.
OK, what about the sex trafficking?
- The other women?
- Girls.
Guys, I got another
connection out in Waunakee.
Her name is Isla Avers.
She's 20 years old now,
but when she was 17,
she went to the same detox
that Sean did back in Waunakee.
Same exact dates.
And then three weeks later,
she was in Chicago
getting therapy at Safe Place.
She followed Sean to Chicago?
And I thought she'd just be
another missing because
she became real hard to track after like
two months at Safe Place.
But on her 18th birthday,
Isla changed her name
the moment the office opened.
And she's been moving every six
months, exactly six to the T.
She's running.
Something happened to her, Sarge.
- You got an LKA?
- Fuller Park.
Go with her.
[KNOCKING]
Yeah?
Isla Avers?
No, sorry.
[DOOR THUDS]
- It's OK.
- Why do you know my real name?
- We're police.
- No.
No, I don't need police.
I didn't call anybody.
- I don't want any help.
- We know about Sean O'Neal.
That's why we're here.
We just want to talk to you about him.
I don't no, I don't know
anybody by that name.
I've got nothing to tell you.
I don't. OK?
I don't have to talk to you, do I?
We need you to come in with us.
Please. Please, I don't want to talk.
I don't have anything to say.
I'm sorry, Isla, but we need
you to come in with us now.
I know you met Sean at detox,
and then you went to Safe Place.
He invited you?
You change your name,
you keep moving,
keep changing your hair color.
It's like you're desperately
trying not to be found.
Why? What happened?
Nothing happened to me.
- I don't believe you.
- I don't care.
I don't care if you believe me,
and I don't care what happened to me.
- I just want to go home.
- Why?
So you can pack up and run again?
It's got nothing to do with you.
It does.
It has a lot to do with me and you.
And all the other girls that
have gone through Safe Place.
You know, Sean's still
out there right now.
He's still running Safe Place
Don't do that.
Don't put that on me.
You're right.
You're right. I'm sorry.
♪
[SIGHS]
You know, you're the third
girl I've sat across from like this.
I sat across from Sean, too.
And I saw it,
how he looks like
he can see right through you,
like he understands.
And I trusted him.
I'm police. It's my job to read people.
And I trusted him.
But you didn't.
You got away. You're here.
You're unbroken,
and I'm so glad.
I can't tell you anything.
You can. I know you can.
I can't.
Isla
he doesn't have to know
you talked to me.
Do it for you.
♪
He used to have sessions with me.
Like, therapy.
I told him everything about me.
Everything.
He would listen. He cared.
But then one day, it was like
he just made a decision about me.
He took me to the woods. He
He raped me.
And then, um, I
I was just nothing anymore.
[SNIFFLES]
He put something over my mouth, and
when I woke up, Sean was gone.
I was in a room with a lock on the door.
It was a prison.
There were girls there.
They told me what was going to happen,
that I was going to be sold.
I don't know how long
I was in that room, but
men took me out.
They washed me.
They put me in a van, and
as soon as the doors opened, I ran.
I just ran. I ran, and
And I didn't stop running.
♪
I think we got him.
This is a firsthand account of rape,
of being held, of being trafficked.
- We got him.
- It's still not enough.
It's he said, she said.
There's no documented
evidence of trauma.
She never reported it.
She's got priors. She uses.
She's a bad victim. She's unreliable.
That girl
that girl is not unreliable.
Look, you asked me here
to tell you when you have it.
You don't have it.
Not to mention, you just
practically promised her
you'd never make her testify,
and I could argue coercion in my sleep.
Coercion?
You implied she had
no choice but to talk.
We're going ahead
with the arrest anyway.
I don't care. It's the best we got.
I want Sean O'Neal off the streets now.
We're going to bring him in,
we use the 48 in the box,
and just hope to hell
we get enough to charge.
Let's go.

♪
Chicago PD.
Hands up.
On your knees.
Get on your knees.
[HANDCUFFS CLICKING]
Jodie, she was your first?
You raped her,
and then you strangled her?
[TENSE MUSIC]
How long you been attracted
to children, Sean?
Is that why you started using
all those years ago?
Oh, now you don't want to talk to me?
Sit down.
♪
How do you pick them?
Which ones to bring in
the woods with you,
to rape and then sell?
Hmm?
Is that why you sell them?
So they can't report you?
So you don't have to kill them
like you did Jodie?
We have you. Do you understand?
We own you now.
Unless you talk, unless you tell us
what happened to all these girls,
you're going to spend
the rest of your life in prison
being beaten and raped.
You should talk to my kids
at Safe Place.
I helped them when CPD won't.
- I save them.
- Not all of them.
What about the ones you don't save?
Where are they?
What do you think
this is going to do for you,
Hailey, finding these kids?
Do you think this is going to save you?
Do you think this might stop the pain?
Is that why you try
to save some of them?
[KNOCKING ON DOOR]
All right, we are done.
He's done talking.
He has no more answers to give you.
You can leave.
I'll have a moment alone with my client.
Don't do this. Talk to me.
I know you want to talk to me.
Unless you want to lose your job,
I suggest you leave
this room very swiftly.
OK.
We knew we were going to need more.
We got 40 hours left.
Now what do we got?
We ain't got nothing
from the search warrants.
Sean burned the documents.
Chief told him to destroy evidence.
All right, Sean's phone?
The burner we IDed?
Not there. No tech.
And GPS has been wiped.
OK. What about Isla?
Anything there?
All she remembers about
the place she was held,
it has locked doors, barred windows.
She remembers the men, the girls,
but no concrete descriptions.
Girl was small, big eyes, scared.
Nothing more than that.
Nothing actionable yet.
You know, we do know now
that Sean is a pedophile.
He's been attracted
to young girls for years.
But when he started trafficking,
he already had Helms and
Kenning at the ready, right?
- He knew them.
- Yeah.
If he knew them, he might
have been a customer.
- There might be evidence.
- Mm-hmm.
Sean was incredibly careful.
Even years ago, he was barely
using his personal phone.
Yeah, last time
he really used it was in 2013.
Nothing on his email,
unless it's all coded.
OK, OK. I got another number.
[SOFT SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC]
OK, 2013, Sean O'Neal
called this number twice
from his personal.
And it also pops on
Victor Helms' cell phone.
- Who the hell is it?
- I'll tell you in two seconds.
The number is registered to
Joseph Collins, 28 years old.
He's got two priors, one for
transportation of minors,
the other one for solicitation.
And he's got a sprinter van
registered in his name.
This is the guy transporting the girls.
Yeah, but it's not enough for a warrant.
We're going to find a way
to bring him in.
All right, slow and steady.
Just get Joseph outside.
If he runs, we'll take him.
♪
[KNOCKING ON DOOR]
Joseph Collins, Chicago PD!
Come on. Joseph Collins, Chicago PD.
Look, Joseph, I can see you.
Come on out. We only want to talk.
Sergeant, looks like
he's disposing of evidence.
What are you doing? Joe, no, stop. Stop.
Sarge, we got a female inside.
Do you see her? Is she underage?
I don't know. Couldn't see.
I think she's underage, Sarge.
I think she's a minor.
- Ow, stop.
- Come on.
Chicago PD!
- [GASPS]
- On the ground!
[BOTH GRUNT]
Hands. Let me see your hands.
- Behind your back.
- It's OK.
It's OK. Are you OK?
What are you doing here?
I'm his girlfriend.
What the hell are you doing here?
You've got no right kicking in our door.
You've got no right.
I'm telling you, I don't know.
And I don't believe you.
Now, what do you know about Sean O'Neal?
Nothing. I don't know no Sean O'Neal.
All right, tell me what you do know.
You talking crazy.
You see where you are right now?
You are on the ground in cuffs.
Your van right there,
it's about to be towed to the district.
I guarantee you,
I'm going to find evidence
of girls that are missing,
raped, and dead.
So in about eight hours,
you're going to be charged
with sex trafficking, conspiracy
Wait, what?
Transportation of minors,
sexual assault,
and felony murder.
What?
Yeah, your little girlfriend over there,
she's going to have the same
charges dropped on her name.
No, no. She didn't do anything.
Then protect her. Protect yourself.
I don't know what you want from me.
Yes, you do.
Now what is the van for, Joe?
What is the van for?
I give rides, that's it.
- To who?
- Girls.
Girls, OK? I give them rides.
I get a text. I pick them up.
I give them rides. That's all, man.
Where? Where do you pick
the girls up from?

They were just here.
He moved them. He just moved them.
- Your 48 hours are up.
- It's not.
- He's got
- Yeah, 20 minutes.
- Yeah, I heard.
- We have enough to charge.
- No. No, you don't.
- You don't have enough.
No, Joseph Collins'
statements aren't admissible.
You don't have enough.
You're releasing my kid.
Sarge, you know Chapman's
in your office?
Look, anything that you
recover from Joseph Collins,
anything that you recover
from questioning him,
you cannot use!
Fruit of the poisonous tree.
Are you kidding me?
It's illegal entry.
It's an illegal arrest.
No. I moved on good faith.
A suspect wanted for sex trafficking,
a sexual offender was
refusing to open the door
and was manhandling a girl in there.
She was not a girl. She was an adult.
And she was his girlfriend.
There was no way to know that.
She was shouting.
Any cop would have moved in.
[SCOFFS] Look,
you have been hearing shouts
and seeing shadows ever since
What are you doing?
[TENSE MUSIC]
Patty, what the hell are you doing?
You think we're finding
this evidence by magic?
Your son led us there,
to a 12-year-old girl,
strangled, left to rot.
To a rape.
Patty, to a house where girls
were being held and abused.
They're out there right now.
For all we know,
your son had them killed.
No, my son is not that!
He is not this!
He's not. No, you're wrong.
Patty, either way, it's not your call.
Come on. Why you being so quiet?
I can't use it.
What?
It's an illegal entry,
an illegal arrest.
A coerced statement.
No ASA would touch this.
All right, get me Sergeant Platt.
I want him released right now.
Patty.
Patty!
OK, thanks.
Chief and Sean just got to Safe Place.
Looks like the chief
is dropping him off.
UCs will stay outside, keep eyes.
Sean would be a fool
to do something now.
Well, let's hope he's a fool then.
[DOORBELL RINGS]
You dropped Sean off?
[SCOFFS] Yeah.
I think you know the answer
to that since I clocked
your undercovers following us.
You know, there's no need
for you to be here.
It's done.
I need you to look it in the eye.
I read your report.
Patty, if you really read them
I mean, saw the pictures
I mean, read what a little girl
said about your son,
about a rape?
I don't think you'd be sitting
here drinking your scotch.
You shouldn't be here.
Door was open.
Do you want to arrest me for this?
See how long I stay in this time?
No. Go ahead.
[CHUCKLES]
You wearing a wire?
No.
You want to search me?
No, I trust you.
But I don't
I don't have anything for you, Hailey.
Yeah, you do.
And I think there's still
a decent part of you in there.
[SOFT TENSE MUSIC]
Why?
Because of this place.
Because you did save
some of the kids here.
I think you wanted to save all of them.
Do you know how many programs I've done?
Joined six religions, too.
Did you find that out?
No.
Six.
I read all these books.
- [BOOK SLAMS]
- [CHUCKLES]
I did every kind of therapy.
Poisoned myself.
Talked to my dad, once.
Don't worry, he didn't, uh
he didn't understand
what I was trying to tell him.
His brain wouldn't let him.
He loved me too much.
But I did try.
I
I didn't want to be like this.
Then tell me where
the other girls are, Sean.
Did you move them?
But it didn't work.
Sean.
I couldn't fix myself.
Where are the girls?
The urges,
they don't go away,
because they can't.
You see, bad things do happen, Hailey.
Bad things happen,
but you can control how they happen.
You can control who they happen to.
And that that is what I learned.
You can sacrifice the ones
that are already broken
to save the rest.
Who deems them broken?
I do.
I do.
I brought Sean into this world.
I raised him, just him and me.
You understand?
Yeah.
You understand.
I know you do.
And I loved him
through all of it.
All the time that he was using,
I just loved him.
I tried my best for him.
You're not responsible for this.
Yes, I am.
We are responsible
for the people we love.
Of course we are.
♪
Not for this.
[PHONE BUZZING]
What?
What is it?
Look, it's all there.
I'm sorry.
You need to look it in the eye.
I was born broken.
I was made like this.
Something's gone.
Right? And you were broken when
you were young, weren't you?
And it's not 'cause your husband left.
No, you've always been broken,
just like me.
And when you're already doomed
Sean, are all the girls dead?
Just tell me.
Sean.
[PHONE BUZZING]
UCs clocked you going inside.
Look, anything he would have given you,
we couldn't have used.
I would have found a way to use it.
[SIRENS WAILING]
So you want to do that now?
Make cases any way you can?
He's in your head.
I know.
So let's go back to work.
You, me, and the team.
That's how we're going to get him.
That's how we're going to save them.
I think they're all dead.
Come on. Hey.
Let's go work.
Let's go work. Come on.
Copy that.
OK, forensics sped through
the DNA on the bedding.
Never hit for Sean, and
we're still waiting on more.
There's no way he'd go there for sex.
So where we at on the vehicles?
Still sorting.
There's no cameras
in the row house street,
so we got hundreds coming
and going down the block.
About half of them are clear.
What about rentals?
House rental, car, van?
If he was closing up shop,
moving the girls,
he would have wanted
to move them real fast.
Tower pings are clear.
There's no suspicious hits
in the area on Sean's phone.
- Did Vice check in yet?
- Yeah.
They haven't seen an influx
of kids yet online.
They doubt that the girls
could have been sold so quickly
without hearing some sort of chatter.
Would have taken time.
Voight.
This box truck was clocked
by three different cameras
near the row houses two days ago.
Came and went.
- What's that intersection?
- 39th and State.
The plate is registered
to a Chevy Malibu.
- It's in Lakeview.
- It's hot.
This truck would be big
enough to transport the girls.
You could transport all of them.
[DRAMATIC MUSIC]
This is where we lost it, Sarge.
Traffic cam shows the box truck
entering this block
two days ago and never left.
All right, we split up,
hit every building with access
on this block.
You got it.
