    Kids Killing Kids

    A teenager is demolished with hammers at a construction site. The lies run rampant but eventually rest on the prefrontal cortex of some awful kids. We have a girl who has cried rape and her motivations are so petty. There is also the death of a young woman, standing in her front yard, watching her first husband and second husband fight. But there is no gun. For all of you who hated Calculus, here you get to see how it can be applied to a real-life situation.

    The Hammer and the Stray Bullet

    When the fifteen-year-old Brian Haddick is found beaten to death with a hammer in a construction site, Grissom, Sara, Warrick and Capt. Brass investigate the case. They request the hammers of the workers and they find blood in the hammer of Gregory Curtwell, but he says that he was travelling. They learn that his sister Ashley is involved in the case and claims that Brian was raping her. Meanwhile, Catherine, Nick and Det. Sam Vega investigate the murder of Marlene Mitchell, who was shot while separating a fight between her husband Stewart Mitchell and her ex, Todd, in front of her new house. They need to use their knowledge of trigonometry and physics to resolve the case.

    "Coming of Rage" is another great episode of "CSI". The lead segment has a scary conclusion, showing how justice treats criminals in the coming of age as if they were children. The cynicism of Ashley Curtwell is impressive, but is reality in many countries including Brazil. The other segment is also good to see the use of trigonometry and physics to resolve the case. Stray bullets are very common in Third World countries. My vote is eight.

    Title (Brazil): "Acesso de Fúria" ("Fit of Rage")

    • Trivia
      In the scene near the end where Captain Brass is questioning Benny, after he and Warrick had been to the kid's house, he asks him, "You looking to be another Gallagher? You know who that is?" This is a reference to the comedian Gallagher who is known for smashing watermelons as part of his act.

      While analyzing blood spatter, Warrick and Sara have an electronic device that calculates where the blood came from for them. However, the device they are using says, "Blood Splatter" on it rather than "Blood Spatter". This is a common mistake made often by those who aren't familiar with criminal investigation.
