Bridge over Troubled Water

Bridge Over Troubled Water is a case featured in Criminal Case as the thirty-first case of Mysteries of the Past (Season 4) and the two hundred second case overall. It takes place in the Crimson Banks district of Concordia.

Plot
The Squad followed Franca Capecchi to Crimson Banks, where the Irish and the Italians coexisted. After a body was reported there, Maddie and the player went to a slaughterhouse in the Italian side of the river to find the gutted body of taxi driver Thomas Boyd.

Mid-investigation, Officer Ramirez found the victim's car. Later, Evie mistakenly thought that Butcher Betty wanted to kill her. The team found enough evidence to arrest Margherita Morello for the murder.

Margherita denied involvement but soon admitted to the crime. She gutted Thomas with a butcher knife after he broke up with her when he found out that she was part of the Italian gang. She also said that Franca made a calling to kill the Irish. On the court, Margherita revealed that Betty helped her cover the murder, and then Judge Lawson sentenced her to 25 years in jail.

Post-trial, Maddie and the player arrested Betty, who admitted that the Italians asked her to hide packages in the slaughterhouse, where they found a package with a finger. Per Dick, it belonged to an Irish vendor called Sean Flynn, whose finger was cut by Tony "The Scorpion". Tony slipped that he attacked Sean because he saw him placing a spying device on Thomas' car. Per Charlie, the device recorded a conversation about the Irish gang's new leader and the name of Dermot McMurphy, who denied being the leader.

After Evie stole Rose's gun for protection and then returned it, Lawson sentenced Betty to 5 years in jail. The team then vowed to prevent the gang war from escalating.
