## Biography

Blaire Hawkins is an extremely mean-spirited High School Senior who lives her life treating others horribly. One night, she makes her way through a party, insulting people left and right.

Within a few hours, however, Blaire finds herself tied to the goalpost on the school football field while she listens to other students talking about how horrible she is. Rocks fly out of the darkness, and Blaire screams as she is stoned to death.

Horatio Caine and Frank Tripp arrive at the scene and send away the curious students. Blaire was stoned using rocks from a nearby pile, which was being used to put in a new pathway. Horatio speaks to Principal Lieber, who says that it is not a surprise that someone killed Blaire.

She hurt a lot of students emotionally and psychologically. He tried to suspend her, but her parents threatened to sue the school, and he was forced to back down. Horatio asks for a list of the students who filed complaints.

Eric Delko speaks to Blaire's mother, who says everyone loved her daughter, and the principal took out his bitterness on her. Blaire was better than everyone else in the school, and that made people jealous. Eric and Ryan Wolfe go to the house of another student named Samantha.

She threw the party the night before, and they find Blaire's car in the driveway. There are drag marks by the door, and her shoes and purse are abandoned nearby. This is where she was abducted. Samantha did not see Blaire leave, but she says a student named Megan Wells hooked up with half of the football team in her parents' room, prompting Blaire to kick her out.

Horatio and Natalia Boa Vista talk to Megan and her parents. Megan swears she went home after the party, but she agrees to speak to Natalia. Once they are alone, she says Blaire invited her to the party, but she had to promise to "pay her dues". At the party, three football players came to collect, and she went along with it because she thought that it would make Blaire leave her alone. Unfortunately, Blaire called Megan a skank and told her to leave. Megan felt stupid because this was not the first time Blaire hurt her. She thought about killing Blaire, but she did not do it — she is still relieved that Blaire is dead, though.

Natalia cannot get a warrant because there is not enough probable cause, but Megan seems like their best suspect so far. Horatio speaks to Medical examiner Dr. Loman, who locates a green earbud cap lodged in Blaire's ear canal. She was wearing earphones during the attack. Calleigh Duquesne and Dave Benton take a CD fragment Ryan found at the scene, and they are able to hear some of what it contained.

They identify a male voice and part of a name. It is Nate Cordero, and he did not know the principal was recording him when he told him about Blaire in confidence. Nate's mother says the past few months have been hard for him. Blaire tricked him into running out of the school showers naked, and a hallway full of students saw him. He cannot escape what happened, and the constant humiliation became too much. He tried to hang himself, but his mom stopped him.

The rope Nate used to attempt suicide is from the same bundle as the rope that tied Blaire to the goal post. Walter Simmons discovers that the knots binding Blaire's wrists and ankles are different, proving that two people tied her up. Eric locates a series of explicit e-mails on Blaire's phone from Principal Lieber, but he claims that Blaire herself was behind it. She found out he was building a case against her and threatened to ruin him if he did anything.

The team listens to the recordings Lieber made of student complaints against Blaire, and they realize Megan and Nate were in the principal's office together. They became friends and helped each other get through the past quarter, and they both wished they could make Blaire disappear. The two main suspects are friends, and they have been lying about the night before. Nate took Megan to get an emergency contraceptive after the party, but they swore they did not go back and kidnap Blaire.

A broken CD player in Megan's family car is discovered to be missing a green earbud cap. Megan confesses, saying she killed Blaire alone. She dropped Nate off and went back to the party to get Blaire. The team knows that she is lying, and the truth is revealed once the DNA results come back on the CD player earbuds. The CD player belonged to Megan's father. After Nate's mother heard about what happened to Megan, she knew something needed to be done. She and Megan's parents kidnapped Blaire.

They just wanted to scare her, and they were hoping she would at least leave their children alone. Once she was on the football field and heard the CD, she had the stupid idea of not only showing no regret, but she also told the parents that she believed that the kids deserved everything that she did to them and continued to insult them, causing the parents to snap.

They threw rocks from the nearby pile at her, and when they realized she was dead, they tried to clean up the scene and cover their tracks. All three parents are arrested, and Nate and Megan are left to comfort each other as their parents are taken away.
