Show detail Hide detail

DA VINCI'S INQUEST is a one hour dramatic production combining three genres: the police procedural, the medical thriller and the courtroom drama. The show centers around the cases dealt with by the Vancouver Coroner's Office and its senior coroner Dominic Da Vinci. In this episode a decomposed body is found in the back of stolen truck. Shannon and Leary follow the trail to a local hotel resident who claims he was enlisted by a bounty hunter to transport the body across the U.S. border. The autopsy reveals that the victim in question was being poisoned by arsenic for a long period, and the identity of the deceased is found to be bank robber wanted for the murder of two policemen. Shannon and Leary encounter the suspect by chance in a convenience store, but after a pursuit the suspect not only flees but also manages to escape with Shannon and Leary's vehicle. Meanwhile, Da Vinci investigates the death of a young man who broke his neck while working for his father's construction company. Da Vinci suspects that a safety railing may have been removed contributing to the fall, only to be replaced before the officials arrive on the scene. A Health and Safety inspector suggests an alternate scenario, and Da Vinci quietly speaks with the father and suggests that the third possibility of an “act of god” is the only thing that would prevent their safety rating from being affected by the tragedy. Kosmo helps a woman who thinks her husband is an imposter. <45mn 20s>
