Complete story — includes the ending

The body of a woman falls from an airplane wheel well into the water off the beach near JFK Airport. Detectives Logan and Barek discover that she is Marcy ( Tia Dionne Hodge ), a New York prostitute who had been beaten to death and that four other women have met the same fate on outbound airplanes which landed in other countries. While questioning airport workers they focus on the officious FAA Inspector, Duane Winslow ( Brad Renfro ) and his bullying cousin Art Geddens ( Ethan Embry ). The detectives suspect that Winslow finds women so that Geddens can beat them to death while he watches from another room. It is only when they show Geddens that Winslow planned to kill him and himself after the next victim, that their secret alliance breaks down and they provide the detectives with the evidence need to charge them for the murders.
