His girlfriend.
:07:04
Poor guy.

"TV Journal - Peter Barter"
:07:15
Not a shred of paper left.
:07:23
They even took the blotter.
:07:25
- The audiotapes were also taken.
- Of course.
:07:29
They were searching for evidence
of Barter's sensational scoop.
:07:34
And if there was anything here,
I'm sure they found it.
:07:44
You won't find any fingerprints.
These were no beginners.
:07:51
All we have is
a small, deadly steel needle.
:07:55
An incredible weapon, gentlemen.
:07:57
An air gun that shoots steel needles
absolutely silently.
:08:01
It's a new infantry weapon...
:08:04
tested at Fort Benning
in the United States.
:08:09
But here's something strange:
:08:12
Before the weapon could go
into full-scale production...
:08:16
the blueprints disappeared.
:08:18
They were stolen.
:08:20
U.S. military intelligence
found the thief--
:08:25
a U.S. soldier in Germany--
:08:27
in a deserted bunker
with his throat cut.
:08:30
He had been gruesomely mutilated
and apparently tortured.
:08:32
The blueprints were, of course,
nowhere to be found.
:08:34
- When did this happen?
- About a year ago.
:08:38
There's no doubt that it was this steel
needle gun that caused Barter's death.
:08:42
I don't know.
:08:44
This Barter murder case reminds me
of something that happened long ago.
:08:47
Gentlemen...
:08:49
does the name Dr. Mabuse
mean anything to you?
:08:52
- Never heard of him.
- No.
:08:54
A criminal genius.
:08:56
He wanted to shock the world
with terrorist acts...
:08:59
undermining governments...
