CSI: NY, Season 7

Sheldon Hawkes:
The reptile remains we found in the basement were consistent with Bungarus Fasciatus, also known as the Banded Krait.

Mac Taylor:
Where did they come from?

Sheldon Hawkes:
My guess: Chinatown, black market. 15 minutes on the Internet, anybody can learn how to extract the venom. It's neurotoxic and fast-acting, causing near-instant muscle paralysis in humans. The lucky ones die fast.

Danny Messer:
And the unlucky ones?

Sheldon Hawkes:
Slow and excruciating respiratory failure. As the diaphragm becomes paralyzed, the victim suffocates. Death can take days.

Danny Messer:
So these guys were literally trapped inside their bodies. I mean, unable to move, unable to talk.

Mac Taylor:
Allison Scott knew exactly what she was doing. She wanted them to suffer.
