00:00:30You just littered the street.
00:00:35Hey, man, it was empty.
00:00:36Well, uh, I want you to go back and pick it up.
00:00:39What?
00:00:40I said, I want you to go back and pick it up.
00:00:44Like hell I will.
00:00:46It's people like you who make our world filthy, my friend.
00:00:50You're a pig.
00:00:53Did you hear what I said?
00:00:56Tell me.
00:00:57It's people like me who make our world filthy.
00:01:01I'm a pig.
00:01:03Now, go back and pick up your trash.
00:01:13Put it in your pocket.
00:01:19Now, don't you feel better?
00:01:27You're a pig.
00:01:57Now, don't you feel better?
00:02:27Now, don't you feel better?
00:02:57Now, don't you feel better?
00:03:27George's house.
00:03:28He lives over about, uh, about a mile from school.
00:03:32Mom.

00:03:54About a mile from school.
00:03:56Mom.
00:03:57I don't know.
00:03:58I haven't heard from Ron, so I don't know what's happening.
00:04:01Yeah.
00:04:03Judy thinks she's pregnant.
00:04:05Oh, wow.
00:04:06I feel really sorry for her.
00:04:08She thinks it's by Mike, you know.
00:04:09She hasn't said anything to anybody, you know, yet.
00:04:12What's she gonna do about it?
00:04:13I don't know.
00:04:14She's not even sure yet, you know, but she probably is.
00:04:16It's been about two months, you know.
00:04:19Two months.
00:04:20I told her to go on the pill.
00:04:22Yeah.
00:04:23She's gonna tell him this weekend, I think, you know.
00:04:26See what he does, you know.
00:04:28I wouldn't.
00:04:29I don't know.
00:04:30She hasn't told her mom or anybody.
00:04:31I think her mom will get mad.
00:04:33Yeah, for sure.
00:04:35Yeah.
00:04:37Really cool.
00:04:40Really.
00:04:55All right.
00:04:56What are we gonna do after school today?
00:04:58I don't know.
00:04:59I think I might go to Jeff's house.
00:05:00Come on.
00:05:01Let's go in.

00:10:24Oh, my God.
00:10:25Oh, my God.
00:10:26Oh, my God.
00:10:38Through this door, the only way to the basement.
00:10:43To find his bomb.
00:10:45Then he must have come back here to wait for somebody to attack.
00:10:52Well, it doesn't make any sense, does it?
00:10:56Knowing there's a bomb ready to go off,
00:10:57that he'd stick around it.
00:11:00Well, then who attacked Martha?
00:11:04There were two men who broke into the mental hospital,
00:11:07a bomber and a rapist.
00:11:10The rapist came first, and he hid in the supply room.
00:11:16When the bomber came to plant his bomb in the basement,
00:11:20he had to go through the supply room
00:11:22and return the same way to get out.
00:11:26Now, this means the rapist got two good looks at the bomber.
00:11:31Now, to find a bomber without any identification
00:11:33in Los Angeles County, over 4,000 square miles,
00:11:39with over 7 million people, is pretty hopeless.
00:11:45But there was an eyewitness, the rapist.
00:11:50The rapist can tell us what the bomber looks like.
00:12:05I've got the green light.
00:12:15I can turn right on red, man.
00:12:18No, no, not when a pedestrian is in the crosswalk.
00:12:21Wouldn't hurt you to walk a little faster, would it, buddy?
00:12:27People like you are what's wrong with the world today.
00:12:32What the hell are you talking about, man?
00:12:35You have no respect for the rights of others.
00:12:39Turn it off, huh?
00:12:40Because you have a nice car and I have to walk,
00:12:42that means you own the sidewalk?
00:12:44Look, I'm kind of in a hurry, so why don't you
00:12:46get your hand off my car?
00:12:48That's another thing about people like you.
00:12:51You sit behind the wheel of a fancy car
00:12:54and that makes you privileged.
00:12:58Now, look, man, I told you to get your hand off my car.
00:13:06What the hell are you doing?
00:13:17Hey, man, give me those keys.
00:13:20The bombing of the Northridge Mental Hospital
00:13:22took an interesting turn today when this station received
00:13:24a tape recording from the man who claims to be the bomber.
00:13:27Here is his voice.
00:13:28The police are failing in their duty
00:13:31to protect the rights of a common citizen.
00:13:34There shall be more bombs until justice is served.
00:13:39God is with me.
00:13:43I'm going to get you.
00:13:45Pull over here.
00:14:07You're not busting me any pointy wrap today, Mr. Policeman.
00:14:10I'm running a kiddie show.
00:14:13Hey, hey, hey.
00:14:19Whoa, whoa, what the hell do you think you're doing?
00:14:22I'm giving you a citation.
00:14:24What for?
00:14:26Your easel protrudes three feet on a public sidewalk.
00:14:33You're not busting me any pointy wrap today, Mr. Policeman.
00:14:36I'm running a kiddie show.
00:14:43Who's that?
00:15:09Miss, I'd like the cards on every female assault
00:15:11With the following M.O.
00:15:13Victim grabbed from behind.
00:15:15With a mouth tape.
00:15:17With the clothes ripped off the body.
00:15:19Music.
00:15:40Yeah, that's the way it is and I know it.
00:15:42Guys get ideas, you know, about girls who work in a place where there's nudity.
00:15:46It's probably what gave the guy the idea he could get away with raping me the way he did.
00:15:50I don't think he cared what your profession is.
00:15:53I want you to check out every discharge service man in the L.A. area with a demolition specialty.
00:15:58And look for haters.
00:16:00Guys with a personal gripe.
00:16:03Construction workers who work with dynamite.
00:16:05If somebody buys more than five dollars worth of firecrackers on the fourth of July, I want to know why.
00:16:12All right, DeVinci, what's going on inside his head?
00:16:14Why is he bombing?
00:16:16There's not enough to go on yet.
00:16:18Are we certain that both bombs were set by the same man?
00:16:21The lab says yes.
00:16:22The fragments from both bombs were identical.
00:16:24Each bombing will give us new insights into the man's psychological problems.
00:16:28I may be able to figure out a pattern after the next bombing.
00:16:31I want to get him now.
00:16:33Now, before he bombs again.
00:16:35I'm a psychologist.
00:16:36I don't read tea leaves.
00:16:41You know, every man in the department is busting his butt trying to find this bomber.
00:16:45And you, you're out interviewing some broad.
00:16:48I'm looking for a rapist.
00:16:50Since when did you get transferred to the vice squad, Geronimo?
00:16:53Count the number of bombers we've had in L.A. in the last five years.
00:16:56Now, how many have we caught?
00:16:58Now, what's that supposed to mean?
00:16:59It means without knowing the reason for their bombs, there's no way of knowing where to look for them.
00:17:03There's no M.O., no pattern.
00:17:06How do you catch a guy who wakes up one morning and decides he's going to change the world with dynamite?
00:17:10How do you catch a rapist?
00:17:11He's got an M.O., a pattern.
00:17:13Yeah.
00:17:14He tapes the victim's mouth shut.
00:17:16He rips off her clothes and he attacks her.
00:17:18I read your report.
00:17:19Chief, we can find him.
00:17:21Now, let me blanket the city with policewomen just asking to be raped.
00:17:24I'll bring him in.
00:17:25Fine, I cannot send my men in two directions at the same time.
00:17:27Now, we're going to all concentrate on the bomber.
00:17:29Now, look.
00:17:30I know I'm giving you people heat, but that's what I'm getting at.
00:17:32Plenty of it.
00:17:33I don't give a damn about your pet theories.
00:17:36Or your intuition.
00:17:37Or what your girlfriends or your wives think.
00:17:39Now, please help me find the bomber.
00:17:41Not rapists.
00:17:42Not hookers.
00:17:43Not pushers.
00:17:44Just the bomber.
00:17:45All right?
00:17:49Yeah?
00:17:50Burglary in progress at Culver Industrial.
00:17:53Dynamite involved.
00:17:54Only information on suspect.
00:17:56He is armed.
00:17:58So we won't find our bomber, huh?

00:22:52Oh, you made a mistake.
00:23:05What was that?
00:23:06You charged me 60 cents for two cans of peaches.
00:23:09Yes.
00:23:10There were 48 cents on Tuesday.
00:23:13The sale ended yesterday.
00:23:15The newspaper said the sale is on all week.

00:24:17I'm not going to wait any more than 10 minutes.
00:24:20I like your hair.
00:24:47I like your hair.
00:25:17Now you drive where I tell you and don't look around.
00:25:47I'm going to kill you.
00:26:17I'm going to kill you.
00:26:47I'm going to kill you.
00:27:17I'm going to kill you.
00:27:47I'm going to kill you.
00:28:17I'm going to kill you.
00:28:46I'm going to kill you.
00:29:17I am disappointed that you did not see fit to broadcast my last tape.
00:29:28It is imperative that the public listens to these messages
00:29:32so they will know why they are being punished.
00:29:47I'm going to kill you.
00:29:48I'm going to kill you.
00:29:49I'm going to kill you.
00:29:50I'm going to kill you.
00:29:51I'm going to kill you.
00:29:52I'm going to kill you.
00:29:53I'm going to kill you.
00:29:54I'm going to kill you.
00:29:55I'm going to kill you.
00:29:56I'm going to kill you.
00:29:57I'm going to kill you.
00:29:58I'm going to kill you.
00:29:59I'm going to kill you.
00:30:00I'm going to kill you.
00:30:01I'm going to kill you.
00:30:02I'm going to kill you.
00:30:03I'm going to kill you.
00:30:04I'm going to kill you.
00:30:05I'm going to kill you.
00:30:06I'm going to kill you.
00:30:07I'm going to kill you.
00:30:08I'm going to kill you.
00:30:09I'm going to kill you.
00:30:10I'm going to kill you.
00:30:12What do you want?
00:30:23Look at me.
00:30:24What?
00:30:25I said, look at me.
00:30:28When you talk to somebody, look at them.
00:30:30What do you think I am, an animal?
00:30:32What do you want to order?
00:30:33I'm a human being.
00:30:34Do you understand?
00:30:35Yes.
00:30:36When you talk to me, show some respect.
00:30:39Yes, sir.
00:30:40Common courtesy.
00:30:42It's forgotten these days.
00:30:46I'll have a cheese sandwich and a cup of coffee.
00:30:55Yes, sir.
00:31:10I'll have a cheese sandwich and a cup of coffee.
00:31:40I'll have a cheese sandwich and a cup of coffee.
00:32:10I'll have a cheese sandwich and a cup of coffee.
00:32:40The day of the male chauvinist is gone.
00:32:44Women are no longer second-class citizens to be looked upon as love objects of men.
00:32:51Utilized as receptacles for the germ of their masculine insecurities.
00:32:58Women have been used and abused long enough.
00:33:03We are free at last.
00:33:06Free of male domination.
00:33:08Free to work under equal conditions.
00:33:12Free to make love as equal partners.
00:33:16Think about it.
00:33:18Women outnumber men so we can outvote them.
00:33:22The wealth of the world is in the hands of women so we can control industry.
00:33:30How many men do we know who can get pregnant and give birth?
00:33:34Not very many.
00:33:37We're not the weaker sex.
00:33:40We're the stronger.
00:33:42We outlive men.
00:33:44We outlove men.
00:33:46We outthink men.
00:33:50Until now, women have made the major decisions that have shaped the world by influencing their men.
00:33:57Enough of that.
00:33:59We don't have to pamper the male ego any longer.
00:34:02Now is the time to stand up and be counted.
00:34:38Again I have been forced to bomb in order to punish the people who have wronged me.
00:34:45They must pay for their crimes and must learn it is I who am the superior one.
00:34:52I will continue to explode my bombs in the cause of justice.
00:35:01Will you have the computer give us an analysis of a psychotic bomber?
00:35:06Yes.
00:36:06I will have the computer give us an analysis of a psychotic bomber.
00:36:36I will have the computer give us an analysis of a psychotic bomber.
00:37:06I will have the computer give us an analysis of a psychotic bomber.
00:37:11I will have the computer give us an analysis of a psychotic bomber.
00:37:16I will have the computer give us an analysis of a psychotic bomber.
00:37:21I will have the computer give us an analysis of a psychotic bomber.
00:37:26I will have the computer give us an analysis of a psychotic bomber.
00:37:31Did I hurt you? Hey, come on. Enjoy it.
00:37:35Hey, what's going on?
00:37:38Hey, come on, you pig. Get your hands off me. I didn't do nothing.
00:38:02Help!
00:38:15Get your hands off me! Come on!
00:38:31Come on.
00:38:47Any luck? No.
00:38:49You can't touch me. I plead the Fifth Amendment.
00:38:52What did you say? I plead the Fifth Amendment.
00:38:55Now, just what's the Fifth Amendment?
00:38:58I don't know, but it protects me from guys like you.
00:39:07None of them use the M.O. of the rapist we're looking for.
00:39:10Maybe it's just possible he changed his technique.
00:39:28Come on, let's go.
00:39:58Let's go.
00:40:28Let's go.
00:40:58Let's go.
00:41:28Let's go.
00:41:58Let's go.
00:42:28Let's go.
00:42:55He's not that guy.
00:42:58Let's go.
00:43:28Let's go.
00:43:59Let's go.
00:44:17Sit down.
00:44:23Would you like some coffee? No, thanks.
00:44:28Would you like a sandwich? The machine's outside. No.
00:44:40What's your name? Bromley.
00:44:42Would you speak louder, please?
00:44:44Do you have to record everything I say? Yeah.
00:44:47My lawyer said I don't have to answer your questions.
00:44:50I don't care what your lawyer said. He's arranging my bail.
00:44:54Do you think we can continue until we hear from him?
00:44:57I don't have to tell you anything except my name.
00:45:00Turn around.
00:45:02Till you can hit me in the back of the head?
00:45:06Mr. Bromley, if I've got to look at your face for ten continuous seconds,
00:45:11I'll blow your brains out.
00:45:13Now turn around.
00:45:25You were arrested last night for attempted rape.
00:45:28You got anything to say about that?
00:45:30My name is George Bromley.
00:45:32Have you ever been arrested before?
00:45:34My name is George Bromley.
00:45:38The record's got you down for at least eight assaults.
00:45:41George Bromley.
00:45:46Mr. Bromley.
00:45:48Mr. Bromley.
00:45:52What do you think of a man that bombs a state mental hospital in a high school?
00:45:56He's sick. He ought to be locked up.
00:45:58Will you help us identify the bomber?
00:46:00Me? How can I? You saw him.
00:46:03Can I check and see what happened to my lawyer?
00:46:06You can check your memory and tell me what the man who bombed the Northridge Asylum looked like.
00:46:10My name is George Bromley.
00:46:12You were there... George Bromley!
00:46:15All right, George Bromley.
00:46:17Let's go to the hospital. We'll identify you. Let's go.
00:46:48Lieutenant, the phone's for you.
00:46:52Now, you stay put.
00:46:55Hello?
00:47:05I wanted you to see our three children.
00:47:08A man who loves his children as much as George does
00:47:11couldn't do the thing you people say he has done.
00:47:14Your husband can help us catch the bomber, Mrs. Bromley.
00:47:16Oh, those bombings are terrible.
00:47:22What's that?
00:47:24That's George's room.
00:47:32When George called last night, he said you people made a big mistake.
00:47:41Do you have a key?
00:47:43George doesn't let anyone go in there.
00:47:48Well, I can fix that.
00:48:00Mrs. Bromley, do you mind if I ask you an extremely personal question?
00:48:04What do you want to ask me?
00:48:06Well, is he normal? I mean, sexually?
00:48:10Of course he's normal. What do you mean?
00:48:20You have no right to invade a person's privacy like this.
00:48:39George took them with me. By himself.
00:48:43Photography is his hobby.
00:49:10George could never attack women like you say he did.
00:49:14He's a fine husband.
00:49:17Besides, he was home with me the night of the bombing.
00:49:21He was here all the time.
00:49:23How about last night when he was arrested for attempted rape?
00:49:26Was he home then?
00:49:28Lieutenant?
00:49:30Release Bromley.
00:49:32He's not the guy?
00:49:34He's guilty as hell.
00:49:40This is Investigator Blake. Release George Fromley.
00:49:44No charge.
00:49:46I'll make out the necessary papers and send them down to you on the tube.
00:49:49All right.
00:49:55Hey, what's wrong?
00:49:58My wife. She'll get married again.
00:50:02You care?
00:50:05Who cares?
00:50:08Who cares? We're strangers.
00:50:11What about your boy?
00:50:13I hope that bomber doesn't blow himself up before I get to him.
00:50:19Open letter to the bomber.
00:50:21We ask you to give yourself up so that your complaints may be attended to.
00:50:26This newspaper will guarantee that you will be treated fairly.
00:50:58Mr. Editor.
00:51:02Society has had its chance to treat me fairly.
00:51:06It is too late.
00:51:08Now is the time for punishment and retribution.
00:51:12I am watching the police as they foolishly try to catch me.
00:51:17They should be spending their time punishing the evil ones
00:51:21rather than oppressing and persecuting me.
00:51:25Warning.
00:51:28The police too will suffer my justice.
00:51:44Why are you bothering me?
00:51:46What's that, buddy?
00:51:48I said, why are you harassing me?
00:51:51If you policemen would spend your time searching out criminals
00:51:55instead of burning up gasoline,
00:51:58you'd provide the community with a real service.
00:52:02Are you looking for trouble, mister?
00:52:04Don't intimidate me.
00:52:07I know more about the law than you'll ever know.
00:52:16Shall we split?
00:52:25Let's split.
00:52:52What do you want?
00:52:53I have a warrant for your arrest.
00:52:55What for?
00:52:56Failure to appear in a municipal court in regard to a traffic citation.
00:52:59Are you kidding? A traffic ticket?
00:53:02What's that guy trying to do?
00:53:04He'll have to come with us.
00:53:05At six in the morning? For a lousy traffic ticket?
00:53:08Like hell I will.
00:53:24You're under arrest.
00:53:46You've got no right dragging me down here at this hour.
00:53:50Sit down.
00:53:52I'm a lawyer. I know my civil rights.
00:53:55What do you think you are, black?
00:53:58In this room, mister, you've got no civil rights.
00:54:01Not till ten o'clock in the morning when court convenes.
00:54:06You're nothing but a rapist, Frumley.
00:54:09A no-good degenerate.
00:54:11I don't care who you raped. That's for the vice squad.
00:54:15But I want to know who the bomber is.
00:54:17You're going to tell me what he looks like.
00:54:23I'm going to blow your brains out, Frumley.
00:54:25Unless you tell me what I want to know.
00:54:28You wouldn't shoot.
00:54:31Wouldn't I?
00:54:33The most they'd give me is a 90-day suspension.
00:54:36Then I'd be right back here as if nothing happened.
00:54:39But you?
00:54:41You'd be buried in a hole with your brains blown out.
00:54:47You're bluffing.
00:54:50You're bluffing.
00:54:57Am I?
00:55:08I'll tell you.
00:55:13I'll tell you.
00:55:20Sergeant Quinn is going to help you remember what the bomber looked like.
00:55:24Okay, Mr. Frumley.
00:55:26I wish you'd take your time and look at these facial contours.
00:55:30And tell me if you see any of them there that remind you of the man you saw that night.
00:55:49Well, uh, that one right there.
00:55:52Something like that one.
00:55:54Is his hair right?
00:55:56Yeah.
00:55:57How about the chin?
00:55:58Uh-huh.
00:55:59Sit down, Frumley.
00:56:00Well, I don't know whether I can remember too much of him.
00:56:03You'll remember.
00:56:05Now, what about his eyes?
00:56:07Were they deep-set?
00:56:08What did they look like?
00:56:10Were they round?
00:56:11Were they elongated?
00:56:12Well, how do you expect me to remember something like that?
00:56:14I only saw him for a second.
00:56:16It was dark.
00:56:17Well, kind of white eyes.
00:56:19Bushy eyebrows, I think.
00:56:22You see them on the sheet here?
00:56:24I can't see nothing here.
00:56:26Look at the sheet, Frumley.
00:56:31Well, something like those right there.
00:56:34Are you sure?
00:56:35Yeah.
00:56:36E-41.
00:56:37Now, what about his mouth?
00:56:39Was it a full mouth?
00:56:40Straight mouth?
00:56:42Kind of thin mouth.
00:56:44Thin.
00:56:46Look at every one of those.
00:56:47See if you can spot it.
00:56:51Uh, this one right here.
00:56:55M-78.
00:56:57Let's see some noses.
00:56:59Did he have a long nose?
00:57:01Was it bulbous, upturned, hooked?
00:57:04Kind of long.
00:57:05Long nose, yeah.
00:57:08Well, uh...
00:57:10Yeah, here.
00:57:11That one.
00:57:13N-22.
00:57:15Let's put them all together.
00:57:17You're doing real fine, Frumley.
00:57:19You just keep on remembering.
00:57:21You keep on remembering like this,
00:57:22and pretty soon we're gonna let you go home.
00:57:24You'll be able to go back into your room
00:57:26and look at those porno films of your wife.
00:57:29You'll be able to go back into your room
00:57:31and look at those porno films of your wife.
00:57:35No, that ain't him.
00:57:37I can't remember what he looked like.
00:57:39It was dark.
00:57:41Now, you listen to me, Frumley.
00:57:43You're gonna look at this thing
00:57:44until you do remember,
00:57:45or you're gonna go blind in the process.
00:57:47Do you understand?
00:57:49Now, put these on projection, Sergeant.
00:57:51Come on, get up.
00:57:56You're gonna look at this thing
00:57:57until you do remember,
00:57:58or you're gonna go blind in the process.
00:58:00Do you understand?
00:58:01Now, put these on projection, Sergeant.
00:58:04Sit down.
00:58:09All right, Sergeant.
00:58:18No, it's a longer face.
00:58:20More hair, too.
00:58:29Yeah, that's better.
00:58:31That looks more like it.
00:58:36No, they were narrower.
00:58:38Narrower on the eyes.
00:58:39Those are too wide.
00:58:47Yeah, yeah, all right.
00:59:01Yeah, yeah.
00:59:05Yeah, that's him.
00:59:07That's him right there.
00:59:12You sure that's him, George?
00:59:14Yeah, yeah, that's the man all right.
00:59:16You positive?
00:59:18I just told you, that's him.
00:59:20You positive?
00:59:21I just told you, that's him.
00:59:23You sure?
00:59:24Yeah, yeah, that's him.
00:59:25You sure?
00:59:26I'm positive.
00:59:27You sure?
00:59:28Yeah, yeah, that's him.
00:59:29I just told you, that's him!
00:59:31Well, tell me again, George.
00:59:36Well, maybe I better look at some more pictures.
00:59:38Maybe I didn't see him from the front.
00:59:41Let's see the profile, Sergeant.
00:59:52Yeah.
00:59:54It's a little longer on the nose.
00:59:56A little, well...
00:59:58It's a little further out.
01:00:00The nose is too close into the face there.
01:00:04Yeah, that's better.
01:00:14Eyes are fine, hair's all right.
01:00:23That's him!
01:00:25That's him!
01:00:38Yeah, that's him.
01:00:39That is him.
01:00:44George.
01:00:46Are you sure, George?
01:00:48Yeah, that's the guy, all right. That's him.
01:00:53Well, George, you better be damn sure.
01:00:56Because we'll find him.
01:00:58We'll pick him up.
01:01:01If you're wrong, George...
01:01:05I'm gonna come and get you.
01:01:14Miss Roman.
01:01:17Miss Roman, do you recognize this man?
01:01:22Looks like Mr. Dorn.
01:01:24It was his daughter who died the night before the bombing.
01:01:26Was she a patient in the hospital?
01:01:28Yes, she was admitted about nine months ago.
01:01:30What was wrong with her?
01:01:31Drugs. Heroin addict.
01:01:33Do you know her father's first name?
01:01:35William.
01:01:36Do you think you have his address?
01:01:38Yes, I'm sure I do.
01:02:46THE PUNISHMENT
01:03:08It is imperative that the public listens to these messages
01:03:11so they will know why they are being punished.
01:03:16THE PUNISHMENT
01:03:46THE PUNISHMENT
01:03:51I haven't...
01:03:53seen him since our daughter's funeral.
01:03:57Do you know where I can find him?
01:03:59No.
01:04:02Usually when people like him are on the run,
01:04:04they hide in a place that they know.
01:04:07He wouldn't come here.
01:04:10Did you have a rough marriage?
01:04:13The only time he wasn't uptight
01:04:15was when he was with his daughter.
01:04:18Are they close?
01:04:20That's what blew his mind.
01:04:23When he found out she was taking drugs.
01:04:27Sometimes I think if we'd never had a daughter,
01:04:32things would have been different.
01:04:36Same thing. People never change.
01:04:40Mr. Fromley, is it true that the district attorney
01:04:42has dropped the criminal charges pending against you
01:04:44because you cooperated in identifying the mad bomber?
01:04:46Ask my counselor.
01:04:48You'll have to ask the district attorney about that.
01:04:50But you are a free man today.
01:04:51Free as a bird.
01:04:52Did you know that William Dorn was the bomber
01:04:54when you first saw him?
01:04:55No comment.
01:04:56What were you doing at the Northridge State Hospital
01:04:57the night of the bombing, Mr. Fromley?
01:04:59No comment.
01:05:03Mr. Fromley, do you deny that you were arrested
01:05:05for attempted rape?
01:05:06Gentlemen, please.
01:05:07My client has absolutely nothing to say at this time.
01:05:11Is this the picture of the mad bomber, Mr. Fromley?
01:05:13You'll have to get a statement
01:05:14from the DA's office about that.
01:05:16What do you think of the man
01:05:17who's been setting off all those bombs?
01:05:19The mad bomber's sick. He should be locked up.
01:05:34You were the only man
01:05:40Passing through my life
01:05:46Tell me why the sun shines
01:05:52And gives me the light
01:05:58But I've been in this town
01:06:04And I don't think we've ever known
01:06:34I don't think we've ever known
01:06:40I don't think we've ever known
01:06:48I don't think we've ever known
01:06:56I don't think we've ever known
01:07:04I don't think we've ever known
01:07:12I don't think we've ever known
01:07:20I don't think we've ever known
01:07:28I don't think we've ever known
01:07:36I don't think we've ever known
01:07:44I don't think we've ever known
01:07:52I don't think we've ever known
01:08:00I don't think we've ever known
01:08:08I don't think we've ever known
01:08:39I don't think we've ever known
01:08:48I don't think we've ever known
01:08:56I don't think we've ever known
01:09:04When he bombed the hospital, this is the day after he bombed it.
01:09:08And there's three much older editions here.
01:09:14Why don't you look through these? Maybe you can find something about Dorn.
01:09:19Here it is.
01:09:21High school student Ann Dorn was arrested yesterday at Lincoln High School
01:09:25for possession of drugs.
01:09:27His first bombing, the high school.
01:09:29This one is a month after that.
01:09:31August 14th.
01:09:35The man attacks hotel manager.
01:09:37William Dorn was arrested for possession of drugs.
01:09:40He was arrested for possession of drugs.
01:09:44Man attacks hotel manager.
01:09:46William Dorn was arraigned today in municipal court under the criminal assault charge
01:09:50resulting from an episode occurring in the lobby of the Sheraton Plaza.
01:09:54Bombing number three.
01:09:56This last one is 18 months old.
01:10:02Dorn didn't have to keep a diary. The newspapers did it for him.
01:10:07Well, he's in here somewhere.
01:10:10Find it, and we'll have his next bombing before he does it.
01:10:27Bus crash kills three.
01:10:30A bus carrying the injured man.
01:10:33Bus crash kills three.
01:10:35A bus carrying the employee's baseball team of the Harvester Tool & Dye Company
01:10:39crashed last night en route to a game.
01:10:42Two members of the team died,
01:10:44and five others are still hospitalized in critical condition.
01:10:50William Dorn was definitely a member of our employee's baseball team 18 months ago.
01:10:54He was on the bus the day of the accident, and he never let us forget it.
01:10:57What did he do?
01:10:59Well, he claimed his back was permanently injured and was unable to work.
01:11:02He demanded an enormous financial settlement.
01:11:04How much did he get?
01:11:06We offered him a small settlement, but he refused it.
01:11:09Not one doctor substantiated his claim.
01:11:12The man was unquestionably lying or was a hypochondriac.
01:11:16In either event, our insurance didn't cover it.
01:11:19Was it ever resolved?
01:11:21He threatened us for a while.
01:11:23His letters are in this file, and they're really hateful letters.
01:11:25Was that the end of it?
01:11:27Yeah, he finally stopped writing.
01:11:29How long ago was that?
01:11:31Well, it's been almost a year now since Dorn's last letter,
01:11:34and that one was the meanest of the lies.
01:11:36Would you like to read it?
01:11:38Yeah.
01:11:40You were the only man
01:11:45Passing through my life
01:11:50Told me why the sun shines
01:11:56And gives me light
01:12:01But I didn't listen
01:12:06Thinking I knew more
01:12:26Patterson?
01:12:49Are you awake?
01:12:54Schwartz.
01:13:04How can you eat those damn things?
01:13:33Veronica.
01:13:35Veronica, listen.
01:13:37Listen, I'm sorry.
01:13:39I only went out with her once, twice at the most.
01:14:00Hey, come back with my bike!
01:14:05He'll be here.
01:14:07I didn't say anything.
01:14:13He has to come here.
01:14:15I didn't say a word.
01:14:17You think I've got a personal hatred for this guy, don't you?
01:14:21Hey, did I say anything?
01:14:26You don't have to.
01:14:29I know what you're thinking.
01:14:34You're not always right.
01:14:36You've guessed wrong before.
01:14:39I should have been a dentist.
01:14:42And if you were anything but a cop, I'd be out there looking for you.
01:14:45I'm a dentist.
01:15:15Here he comes.
01:15:21Farmer's on a motorcycle approaching from the east.
01:15:29Come on.
01:15:34Come on.
01:15:43He's gone around the building.
01:15:46Hold your fire until he comes past us.
01:16:12Today, you police have prevented me from setting off what was to have been my last bomb.
01:16:35Now, because of what you have done, it is necessary for me to punish all of society.
01:16:43At this very moment, I am driving through the streets of our city in a red van with enough dynamite in the back to level a city block.
01:16:55Very shortly, I will push the detonator switch next to me to set off the explosion.
01:17:00There is nothing you can do to stop me.
01:17:03You are just as helpless as with my other bombings.
01:17:07And the only thing you can do is wait until it happens.
01:17:13In the event I fail to activate the switch, it will all happen just the same.
01:17:19I intend to drive through the most populated areas of our city until I decide where to die,
01:17:27taking with me the greatest number of people.
01:17:31Then everything will be all right again.
01:17:38Patch me into radio.
01:17:40Emergency. All units, this is Chief Forrester. Be on the lookout for a red panel truck.
01:17:45Stake and notify. Do not intercept.
01:17:48Driver is bomber with explosives. I repeat, do not intercept.
01:17:53That psycho isn't bluffing. When he says something, he means it.
01:17:57Suspect's red van observed eastbound on Wilshire.
01:18:00Man identified as the mad bomber is driving.
01:18:03I can pick him off with my rifle.
01:18:05You are going to do nothing, understand?
01:18:07I don't want any shooting as long as he's in that truck. We've got to get him out.
01:18:11Geronimo, did you understand what I said?
01:18:14What do you want me to do, take the day off until he blows up a couple hundred people?
01:18:1910-L-5-2 to Control. Suspect is in a downtown area, northbound on Grant from 7th Street.

01:20:42This is 9-8-8. Put me through to the chief.
01:21:05Your Honor, where the hell are you?
01:21:08He's going north on the San Diego freeway off the Santa Monica interchange.
01:21:13Didn't he go that way in his last swing around the city?
01:21:17He's repeated the same route five times.
01:21:19Let me have his full swing.
01:21:21He's been turning out the San Diego freeway at Wilshire.
01:21:23East to Highland, past the high school he bombed.
01:21:26Then south to the Melrose Shopping Center Mall, over to Olympic Boulevard.
01:21:32He then drives west to the Central City section.
01:21:35Turns north to go by the hotel, and west once again towards Santa Monica.
01:21:43Driving down Colorado Avenue, the bomber's been passing the hospital he bombed.
