In "Brave Detectives," a persistent investigation was conducted by detectives who traced the true nature of the cruel crime to the end.

In the 74th episode of the T-Cast E-channel "Brave Detectives 4," which aired on the 6th, Inspector Lee Seung-nam of the Gangjin Police Station's investigation team, former police officer Yoon Oe-chul of the Scientific Investigation Unit (KCSI), and Inspector Kim Jin-soo made public their investigation logs. In addition, entertainer Um Ji-yoon and actor Lee Sang-yeop joined as guests.

The first case introduced on the day began with a phone call to report that "My uncle lives alone, but he has not been able to contact me for more than two weeks." The victim was an unmarried man in his 60s, who was staying alone in the building after operating a motel in the past and closing the business. When I was forced to open the motel door, there was a bad smell. A badly decomposed body was placed right in front of the main gate, and it was difficult to identify it with the naked eye because it was damaged enough to reveal the bones of the face. As a result of fingerprint identification, the victim was identified as the caller's maternal uncle.

The left cheekbone of the body was broken, and blood was splattered around it, which appeared to have been killed by the attack. A fire extinguisher with blood was thrown in the paper box next to the body, and the door of the back gate leading to the parking lot was crushed, so signs of invasion were also found. According to phone records, the time of death was estimated to be at least 18 days and up to 25 days before. The motel's CCTV was all turned off, but the investigation team captured the scene of a man with an umbrella leaving about 11 hours after the victim entered the motel through nearby CCTV.

As a result of tracking the movement, the man stopped by a nearby bar and came out. The umbrella was folded, but he was holding a blue plastic bag, covering his face with a hat. Detective Lee Seung-nam recognized the man at once. It was because of the crooked nature of wearing a baseball cap, and he was the one who tracked down the theft of a mobile phone from a bus just three weeks ago. The suspect is Choi (pseudonym) in his 60s, and his past criminal record of murder was also revealed during the identification process. He had a history of killing with a knife after a quarrel with a neighbor and then abandoning his body and serving a 10-year sentence.

Police arrested Choi where he worked. He stated that he opened the back gate of the motel with a crowbar to steal goods, hit the victim who came down after hearing the bell on the door with a fire extinguisher, and attacked the face with a crowbar. Looking at the victim, Choi said, "I saw your face, so wouldn't you report it. If you go in anyway, you can't come out forever, so just die," he said, shocking. After the crime, he stole landscape decorations and umbrellas from the motel, and he took green onions and onions in a blue plastic bag and made soup the next day, drawing public outrage. Choi was sentenced to life imprisonment.

The second case introduced later was a case in which the truth was revealed when the criminal was caught in the investigation network set up by detectives even in a situation where it was difficult to prove the crime. The case began with a report from my sister that "I have not been able to contact my sister for three days." My sister was a housewife in her 40s and lived with her husband and elementary school children. It was said that the house where no one was present was clean, but the fish smelled rotten. As a result of the confirmation, it was also revealed that security company employees were recently dispatched. He was embarrassed that his child could not open the door of the house, and when he contacted his husband, the head of the household, he said, "I'm in the office." This point coincided with the time when I lost contact with my sister.

Detectives who checked the apartment's CCTV found suspicious circumstances. The scene of his wife returning home and getting out of the elevator was captured, but he was not filmed coming out of the house afterward. In addition, it was revealed that the husband was in the house when the security company was dispatched. Since then, the husband has been confirmed to have carried five large and small garbage bags close to the elevator and loaded them into the trunk of the vehicle. The younger sister said her brother-in-law said, "My sister ran away from home." The two were 20 years apart, and it turned out that the husband was obsessed enough to take off his clothes and smell them when his wife came out.

The investigation team banned her husband from leaving the country and obtained a search and seizure warrant. Ruminol tests showed reactions throughout the front door and bathroom, and blood was found in the middle door between the bathroom and the bathroom. There were also signs of the marble floor being dented, but the husband said it was hard to understand that his wife usually trimmed fish in the bathtub. During the search and seizure, detectives also found a wife's notebook with a record of being threatened and assaulted by her husband. The husband was arrested at the airport while attempting to leave the country by turning off his mobile phone and avoiding the eyes of detectives.

When he denied the crime, the investigation team gathered circumstantial evidence to prove the murder. Residents said they smelled fishy on the day of the incident and heard the sound of turning on the water. In fact, it was confirmed that 5 tons of water was used in the house that night. As a result of ripping off the entire bathtub through the second search and seizure, the presumed flesh and some finger bones were found in the pipe network. In addition, she found that her husband purchased a bone meat knife and grinder used at a butcher's shop just before the incident. The DNA of the wife was detected in the bones found as a result of the identification. Nevertheless, the husband denied the crime altogether. Ahn Jung-hwan said, "How can you do that?" and Kim Sun-young expressed anger, saying, "I'm not even human." As a result of the investigation, the day before the incident, the husband received a divorce claim from his wife and was judged to have committed the crime. He was sentenced to 18 years in prison.
