A restaurant employee is shot dead as he makes a take-out delivery. He had been deliberately targeted by a caller who requested delivery to a false address. The culprits are identified as a pair of teens named Dale "Tagger" Kershaw and Joey Timon. Since only one person fired the gun, each suspect points the finger at the other. Timon's confession to a priest is caught on tape but cannot be used against him because it is inadmissible on religious grounds. However, a judge rules that the tape can be used in Tagger's defense. Timon agrees to a plea deal in exchange for his testimony against Tagger, and both are convicted of murder. Ross and [=McCoy=] reflect on how little sense the case makes: the church protecting two killers, who were both sentenced for the same murder.
