Sid Hammerback quotes from CSI: NY

Sid Hammerback

She may have been beautiful on the outside, but it was armageddon on the inside.

Sid Hammerback

As an optimist I prefer to see the body as half-full.

Sid

(to Sheldon & Mac about the victim) The rawness of the flesh indicates she was alive during the beheading, but I bet she didn't feel a thing. Her blood alcohol level was 0.26 blotto. The highest I've ever registered was 0.23, but that was in celebration of my first divorce, and I fell down a flight of stairs, didn't feel a thing.

Sid

(with the impaled hotel concierge) When I was an intern, they brought in a guy who had fallen off a loading dock onto a container of steel reinforcement rods. Talk about a thousand points of light.

Dr. Sid Hammerback

[Pulling something out from inside the victim's neck] A prize in every box.

Sid Hammerback

(looking at the body of their vic, who was sawed in half) Do I even need to state the cause of death?

Dr. Sid Hammerback

He was dead before he was killed. Happy Halloween.

Dr. Sid Hammerback

Well, I didn't find any bite marks on him or human brains in his stomach contents, but he was dead before he was killed, which medically makes him a zombie. Happy Halloween.

Sid

(showing Sheldon and Danny the cell phone that was pulled from the vic) My first dead ringer. (Danny laughs a bit)

Sid

First vic I've not had to wash in some time - clean as they come!

Sid

First victim I haven't had to wash in quite some time - clean as they come!

Sid

I also found traces of condom lubricant and spermicide on his hand. Your vic may have joined the mile-high club before ending up in my not so exclusive one. Of course, he could have had sex just prior to boarding, but that's not very exciting.

Sid

(Allison Redman's death) I realize this is usually the part where I tell you that I found some strange, unusual, bizarre, aberrant, peculiar, idiosyncratic… that's it, I don't have any more synonyms for strange. Wait… weird, weird piece of evidence. But, alas, there's no Gila monster in her stomach. She simply succumbed to the bomb.

Dr. Sid Hammerback

I'll just say it straight: I think our vic may have been killed by... a vampire.

Sid

When something presses on an exit wound in a manner that restricts the expansion and tearing of the victim's skin, we call it a shored wound. Shored wounds appear smaller than usual and can be mistaken for an entrance wound.
