Notes

Rumoured to revolve around the death of an attendee at a "furry" and "plushy" convention. (August 26, 2003 - CSI Files)
TV Guide: "The writers at CSI have come up with some strange and kinky cases to investigate in the past (think the scuba diver in a tree or Lady Heather). But in this truly bizarre episode they've outdone themselves,which makes you wonder: do they have vivid imaginations or does stuff like this really happen?" (October 26, 2003 - CSI Files)
