Quote from Lieutenant Disher in Mr. Monk and the Daredevil
Adrian Monk: One body? Captain Stottlemeyer: Yep. Driver. He was still behind the wheel, buckled in. Adrian Monk: Who was he? Captain Stottlemeyer: We don't know. The killer doesn't want us to know. Whoever did this stuck around. Adrian Monk: And? Captain Stottlemeyer: And removed every bit of I.D. , filed off the VIN numbers off of the car. All we got is a gas can and a flashlight. No fingerprints. Lieutenant Disher: Yeah, Dr. G figured, uh, it happened about four days ago. Adrian Monk: No, it was longer. At least a week. The grass is already starting to grow back. Lieutenant Disher: Oh, it wasn't me. It was Dr. G. Adrian Monk: Cause of death? Lieutenant Disher: Oh, vehicular homicide. Dr. G says the victim was forced off the road. Adrian Monk: I don't think so. There's no dents on the side or the rear. I think this was an accident. Look, I think this poor guy hit a deer. Look. A little piece of antler. Plus, the headlights were off, so this must have happened during the day. But the guy burned the car later. He needed the flashlight. Lieutenant Disher: I guess Dr. G is 0 for 2.
