Colors of Evil: Red (2024) Timeline Explained – Every Event in Order

Jakubiak committed suicide during interrogation because he was framed for Monika's murder. While police found a bloodied shirt in his backyard and arrested him, Jakubiak was actually innocent, the real circumstances of Monika's death involved Mario Dubiela, and Jakubiak likely felt trapped knowing he would be convicted for a crime he didn't commit.

Bilski remained suspicious because Jakubiak's arrest and suicide happened too conveniently. The case from fifteen years ago involved a similar murder, and Jakubiak had just been released from prison one week before Monika's body was found, making him an obvious suspect, which seemed too perfect to Bilski and raised doubts about whether the investigation was genuine or manipulated.

Monika died during a coercive sexual encounter with Mario Dubiela at a retreat. It was an accident that occurred when Mario brought her to the location, but her death resulted from his actions. Tadeusz Dubiela, Mario's father and the coroner, discovered what happened and chose to protect his son by framing Jakubiak.

The missing women connected to Kazar's Dockyard were actually murdered by Kazar himself. Bilski discovers a gruesome bracelet made of human lips, trophies Kazar took from his victims. However, Kazar denied any involvement in Monika's death, which initially seemed contradictory until the truth about Mario emerged.

The corrupt officer was one of the police contacts that Kazar had on his payroll. This officer sabotaged Monika's attempt to report Kazar's crimes by dismissing her claims, and later eliminated a potential witness who could connect Kazar to the missing women. The corrupt officer's identity eventually came to light, leading to his downfall.

Tadeusz Dubiela, the coroner who examined the earlier murder case linked to Jakubiak, was romantically involved with Helena Bogucka, Monika's mother. This connection was significant because Tadeusz had been protecting his son Mario while simultaneously helping Helena pursue justice for her daughter's murder.

Kazar admitted to murdering several women connected to his Dockyard operation, keeping trophies like the lip bracelet, but he genuinely did not kill Monika. Her death was caused by Mario during a coercive encounter at a retreat, not by Kazar's hands, which is why he could confidently deny involvement while still being a serial murderer.

The ruby ring belonged to Monika Bogucka. When Helena discovered it in Mario's room during a getaway with Tadeusz, it became the critical clue that connected Mario to Monika and led Bilski to realize Mario was involved in her death. This discovery shattered the theory that Kazar was solely responsible.

Tadeusz framed Jakubiak to protect his son Mario, who had accidentally caused Monika's death during a coercive sexual encounter. As a coroner with access to the case and knowledge of the earlier similar murder, Tadeusz manipulated evidence and directed suspicion toward Jakubiak, who had recently been released from prison and made a convenient scapegoat.

The bracelet was a collection of human lips that Kazar had cut from his victims as trophies. Bilski discovered this gruesome item during the investigation into Kazar's criminal operations, proving that Kazar was a serial killer who had murdered multiple women connected to his Dockyard disco and drug trade.

Bilski connected Mario to Monika's death when he recalled seeing Mario hide a ruby ring that belonged to Monika. This, combined with the discovery of the ring in Mario's room during Helena's stay, and learning that Mario had been at the same retreat where Monika died, allowed Bilski to piece together the truth that Kazar was not responsible.

Helena was drugged at the Dockyard when she went there investigating her husband's secret life as Kazar's attorney. Someone at the club spiked her drink, likely on Kazar's orders or to prevent her from gathering information about Monika's connection to the establishment. She was saved by a sympathetic worker who helped her escape.

The pendrive contained vital evidence of Kazar's illegal operations, his criminal activities at the Dockyard, including drug trafficking and other crimes. Helena's husband, who was Kazar's attorney, risked his career by providing this evidence to her, hoping it would help bring Kazar to justice and explain his daughter's connection to the mafia kingpin.
