Maya abruptly drops off Lily at the daycare. She downloads the daycare’s app, which allows her to access a live feed of the room where Lily plays, safe.

At the station, Kierce runs two lineups for Maya, to the district attorney and defense lawyer’s protests. Since the assailants wore ski masks, it’s impossible for May to make a positive identification. However, having scrutinized their builds and clothing, Maya picks out two suspects whom the NYPD found via CCTV near the park around the time of the murder: Fred Katen, who is Black, and Emilio Rodrigo, who is Latino and whose gun is still visible on the security tape. Even though it’s doubtful that they can make a murder charge stick, Rodrigo will serve time for possession of an illegal firearm. The murder weapon is still missing, but Kierce got a ballistics match to the bullets found in Joe’s body to another murder four months earlier—Maya’s sister, Claire. Since he was in prison at the time, Katen has a rock-solid alibi for Claire’s murder. Kierce doubts that the “young [punks]” killed Claire (87): “Same gun. Doesn’t mean the same guys” (89).
