Apparently murder can go viral on tonight’s episode of “CSI: Cyber”. A picture of a dead body had gotten posted online and somehow every user associated with PicThread managed to get their hands it though some claimed they never heard of much less followed Aiden Harrison. Aiden’s account being the one that was used to post the picture.

Aiden however was not the killer the Cyber Unit thought they were looking for He was actually the victim in the photo and it seems the only thing he might have done to set the killer off recently had been to preach about overturning gay marriage. Although, his speech about that had more to do with his take as a pastor than anything else.

But, whoever killed him had also hacked his account to show the world that he had been murdered and that what he said hadn’t been right. Aiden you see had been found near his computer and it looks like his killer had made him right out “if can’t say anything nice, then don’t say anything at all” several times before Aiden’s tongue was eventually removed. And his torture was finally ended.

So while it was understandable why someone may have become offended by what Aiden preached, Avery for one thought the social media aspect was all about the killer wanting to show off. And nothing convinced her otherwise until they found the second and third victim. Who had been killed together.

A barcode had been found on Aiden and when the Cyber Unit looked into it – it released a second photo that went viral. Only that time it had been of a couple because the woman involved had posted a picture of them in bed together. And that apparently went against the pornography rule on PicThread.

See, that’s why people were doing. Aiden had broken the hate speech rule of social media and the couple had broken the pornography rule. So Avery realized that anyone that broke the five deadly sins of the internet, at least in their killer’s eyes, was in danger.

Yet her realization had almost come too late for the fourth victim. By time the Cyber Unit had found the couple, there had been a barcode on the couple’s skin and it eventually lead to a drug addict. That had been given a hot dose of heroin, but who fortunately still had a pulse when Mundo found him.

So that was Hate Speech, Pornography, and Drugs down. Though Avery didn’t doubt that the killer was going to keep going until all five sins had been covered so she turned the investigation on PicThread itself. PicThread was supposed to have a filter between he internet and what people posted. And therefore the people working at IT there probably had the best access to carry the murders out.

But while many were interviewed, Avery and DB became suspicious of Sasha who ran the department. Sasha had apparently described herself as the one upholding certain standards at PicThread to make sure nothing gets through and technically she was the one that had to decide whether or not to add a graphic warning to any of the pictures that are posted online. So everything had to go by her.

And it seemed like her experience at PicThread was what broke her. Sasha was showed to be the near each of the victims at time of their deaths and so the Cyber Unit tracked her down by finding her latest a victim. A teenager that would taunt his victims into committing suicide and then post pictures of the funeral online. As some sort of sick trophy.

So that teenager was deemed guilty of trolling and Sasha was going to teach him a lesson before she did away with him. However, the bureau found the place Sasha had stashed him and they set him free while they stand behind to wait for Sasha.

Though she didn’t really look surprised when she saw Avery. It turns out her plan was always to get caught because there had been one last sin she wanted to cover and she needed help in acting it out. Sasha, you see, had killed herself when she saw the federal agents but there had been barcode on the back of her neck. Which would take the Cyber Unit back to her homepage on PicThread where she confessed to everything and listed herself as the last sin – Violence!

And even had #GraphicWarning thrown in so that her message could live on forever.

Yet, Avery quickly warned the Department of Justice about it so the Cyber Unit were going to make sure that no one looked up to Sasha for what she did. And they were going to try and erase as best as possible.

Although, not everyone likes to be erased. Just ask Mundo’s stalker that had now taken to going in and out of his father’s hospital room as a way to be near the family.

THE END!
