A distinctive stocking cap becomes a crucial clue in Law&Crime Investigates' latest episode, but the investigation starts with a missing van. After Thomas Flood is found dead in Blaine, Washington, detectives set out to reconstruct where the carpenter and his vehicle had been.

"Security Videos Lead Cops to Killer Wearing Her Signature Hat" follows that evidence through phone records, the discovery of Flood's van behind a church and gas-station surveillance. Public tips help identify the woman in the footage. Later, a friend turns over a handgun, and the documentary explains how ballistics and DNA strengthen the case. It closes with the February conviction and sentencing, followed by a tribute from Flood's sister.

The episode drew about 65,000 views in its opening stretch and is the channel's most active video by a substantial margin. Some viewers focus on the interrogation's requests for a lawyer, a procedural question amid the documentary's reconstruction of the evidence.

The channel added subscribers over the week, though daily views are slightly below their usual level. Crime Beat TV and Criminally Obsessed drew larger weekly audiences among nearby true-crime channels; Solved Files had a quieter week.

Older investigations also remain active. The San Antonio episode about Martell DeRouen, whose neighbor's camera featured in the investigation, has passed two million views and is drawing the next-largest daily audience after the new Flood documentary.
