Manhunters Season 1 Episode 20 Stakeout
- March 10, 2009
Recently promoted to Senior Investigator, Mike Romani finds himself immediately at work on a major new case. Several years ago, a fugitive flees New York violating both his parole and federal probation after he's wanted in questioning on a sexual assault against a 10 year-old girl. Mike takes over the case when the task force gets a call from police in central Florida. Over the weekend, the fugitive's girlfriend is shot in the Tampa area, and informants say he's traveling by train up to New York City. Mike immediately meets with Commander Lenny DePaul and his partner, Deputy Michelle "Michy" Mendez to pull together a large team. They set up a covert surveillance in the fugitive's old Bronx neighborhood. But intense surveillance can be risky. The danger of getting their cover blown and tipping off the fugitive is high.
