Narrator:
In the criminal justice system,
the people are represented
2
00:00:04,204 --> 00:00:06,695
by two separate yet
equally important groupsââ
3
00:00:06,740 --> 00:00:08,605
the police
who investigate crime,
4
00:00:08,641 --> 00:00:11,610
and the district attorneys
who prosecute the offenders.
5
00:00:11,644 --> 00:00:13,669
These are their stories.
6
00:00:15,015 --> 00:00:17,609
( baďŹring )
7
00:00:18,918 --> 00:00:21,546
Man:
Hey, what's
happening?
8
00:00:24,657 --> 00:00:28,320
( distant siren wails )
9
00:00:28,361 --> 00:00:30,420
(dog whimpers)
10
00:00:37,604 --> 00:00:38,696
( dog baďŹrs )
11
00:00:38,738 --> 00:00:40,933
Come on, baby.
12
00:00:40,974 --> 00:00:43,772
Rilesâââ?
Come on!
13
00:00:49,749 --> 00:00:51,273
( dog whimpers )
14
00:00:51,317 --> 00:00:53,717
Oh my God!
15
00:00:53,753 --> 00:00:55,880
( staff chatter )
16
00:00:59,259 --> 00:01:02,524
What do we gotâ?
16âyearâold found
next to a dumpster.
17
00:01:02,562 --> 00:01:05,122
Disoriented,
racial stuff scrawled
all over her.
18
00:01:05,165 --> 00:01:06,860
Rape?
Not sure yet.
19
00:01:06,900 --> 00:01:08,299
I'd say
more than likely.
20
00:01:08,334 --> 00:01:10,234
She's been pretty
unresponsive so far.
21
00:01:10,270 --> 00:01:12,898
You get
EMT results?
They're finishing.
22
00:01:12,939 --> 00:01:15,100
Got a nameâ?
Astrea Crawford.
23
00:01:15,141 --> 00:01:17,336
Thanks.
Excuse me.
24
00:01:19,012 --> 00:01:21,139
Who was
at the sceneâ?
25
00:01:21,181 --> 00:01:23,172
Patrini
and Hanson.
26
00:01:26,419 --> 00:01:28,410
Max:
Anybody get
pictures of that?
27
00:01:29,989 --> 00:01:31,752
Logan:
Hey, you want
to hold on those?
28
00:01:31,791 --> 00:01:33,782
We're gonna need
to bag them.
29
00:01:34,861 --> 00:01:37,489
Astrea?
30
00:01:37,530 --> 00:01:39,896
I'm Sergeant Greevey,
this is Detective Logan.
31
00:01:39,933 --> 00:01:42,993
We're here to find out
what happened to you.
32
00:01:43,036 --> 00:01:46,904
It's okay.
It's all right.
33
00:01:48,641 --> 00:01:50,233
Astrea, can you
open your eyesâ?
34
00:01:50,276 --> 00:01:52,403
Umâmmm.
35
00:01:52,445 --> 00:01:54,504
I think you can
if you try.
36
00:01:54,547 --> 00:01:57,880
No one here
is going to hurt you.
37
00:01:57,917 --> 00:01:59,509
Honey, they can't
help you
38
00:01:59,552 --> 00:02:01,577
if you don't tell them
what happened.
39
00:02:01,621 --> 00:02:03,885
Now come on,
open your eyes.
40
00:02:05,058 --> 00:02:07,151
You did it
once before.
41
00:02:07,193 --> 00:02:08,854
Come on.
42
00:02:11,431 --> 00:02:12,591
Logan:
Okay...
43
00:02:12,632 --> 00:02:14,862
Okay,
that's a start.
44
00:02:14,901 --> 00:02:17,665
SNeetheart,
45
00:02:17,704 --> 00:02:19,831
do you know
who attacked you?
46
00:02:19,873 --> 00:02:22,000
Mmmâhmm.
47
00:02:22,041 --> 00:02:24,032
Can you tell us
who it is?
48
00:02:24,077 --> 00:02:25,772
Umâumm.
49
00:02:28,615 --> 00:02:31,743
Astrea, I'm gonna
give the nurse
my pad.
50
00:02:31,784 --> 00:02:33,775
She's gonna
hold it for you.
51
00:02:33,820 --> 00:02:36,050
All I want
you to do
52
00:02:36,089 --> 00:02:38,455
is to write down
who did it.
53
00:02:56,309 --> 00:02:58,209
What?
54
00:03:09,923 --> 00:03:12,756
( theme music playing )
55
00:04:30,903 --> 00:04:32,530
No discernible
contusions,
56
00:04:32,572 --> 00:04:35,063
traumatized,
disoriented.
57
00:04:35,108 --> 00:04:36,973
EMT's original
Glasgow coma
was off.
58
00:04:37,010 --> 00:04:38,477
It should be
about 10 to 12.
59
00:04:38,511 --> 00:04:39,842
Did you administer
a rape kit?
60
00:04:39,879 --> 00:04:42,245
I didn't see
bleeding or bruises
in the perineal.
61
00:04:42,282 --> 00:04:44,273
Humor me,
just do one.
62
00:04:44,317 --> 00:04:46,285
She hasn't stated
she's been raped.
63
00:04:46,319 --> 00:04:48,412
She hasn't stated
64
00:04:48,454 --> 00:04:50,513
that she hasn't
been, either.
65
00:04:56,963 --> 00:04:58,931
M ax:
FBI should be notiďŹed,
66
00:04:58,965 --> 00:05:01,433
at least to cover
the civil rights vios.
67
00:05:01,467 --> 00:05:03,059
Media catches
a sniffââ whew!
68
00:05:03,102 --> 00:05:05,866
If these guys
turn out to be ours,
I want them fast.
69
00:05:05,905 --> 00:05:07,634
You order a kit?
Yeah.
70
00:05:07,674 --> 00:05:08,868
Good. What else?
71
00:05:08,908 --> 00:05:11,138
I requested a rape
intervention specialist.
72
00:05:11,177 --> 00:05:13,407
She's already
there.
What about parents?
73
00:05:13,446 --> 00:05:15,346
The mother arrived
just as I was leaving.
74
00:05:15,381 --> 00:05:17,178
Mike's with her
and the specialist.
75
00:05:17,216 --> 00:05:18,843
Nothing more
from the girl?
76
00:05:18,885 --> 00:05:22,616
No, I figured
to give her a day
and let her calm down.
77
00:05:22,655 --> 00:05:28,252
I just knew something
bad had happened.
78
00:05:28,294 --> 00:05:31,263
Did she stay
away from home
before, ma'am?
79
00:05:31,297 --> 00:05:34,425
Usually only
for a night
80
00:05:34,467 --> 00:05:36,958
if things were bad
at home.
81
00:05:38,204 --> 00:05:41,833
Were things bad?
82
00:05:41,874 --> 00:05:44,968
We just didn't
want her seeing
this particular boy.
83
00:05:46,145 --> 00:05:48,340
Who is that?
84
00:05:48,381 --> 00:05:52,477
Don't know.
Only Hill--
85
00:05:52,518 --> 00:05:54,816
M ax:
Mike?
86
00:05:54,854 --> 00:05:57,345
Excuse me.
87
00:06:02,428 --> 00:06:03,861
Anything?
88
00:06:03,896 --> 00:06:07,662
She didn't even file
a Missing Persons Report
until last night.
89
00:06:07,700 --> 00:06:10,168
Three days?
90
00:06:11,437 --> 00:06:13,302
One of my kids
is 15 minutes late
91
00:06:13,339 --> 00:06:15,170
I go through
the roof.
92
00:06:15,208 --> 00:06:17,142
Are you finished?
I'd like to get her
with her daughter.
93
00:06:17,176 --> 00:06:18,541
How long
can you stay?
94
00:06:18,578 --> 00:06:20,011
As long
as it takes.
95
00:06:20,046 --> 00:06:21,946
If she comes out
with anything at allââ
96
00:06:21,981 --> 00:06:25,473
location, namesââ
even if it sounds
like nonsense, call us.
97
00:06:25,518 --> 00:06:27,452
I knowthe drill,
Sergeant.
98
00:06:27,487 --> 00:06:30,115
And when the press comes
sniffing around
on this,
99
00:06:30,156 --> 00:06:32,317
nothing goes to them
100
00:06:32,358 --> 00:06:34,292
that might jeopardize
this investigation.
101
00:06:35,495 --> 00:06:38,328
In other words,
don't say anything.
102
00:06:44,303 --> 00:06:46,203
I didn't know
she was gone.
103
00:06:46,239 --> 00:06:48,298
They pretty much
keep to themselves.
104
00:06:48,341 --> 00:06:51,640
You don't know
of any fights
105
00:06:51,677 --> 00:06:53,702
or arguments
they may have
had lately?
106
00:06:53,746 --> 00:06:55,509
Why?
You ain't got none
in your house?
107
00:06:55,548 --> 00:06:58,540
Ma'am, do you know
a young man,
108
00:06:58,584 --> 00:07:01,246
last name Hill,
109
00:07:01,287 --> 00:07:02,845
that Astrea
was supposedly seeing?
110
00:07:02,889 --> 00:07:05,187
Never heard.
111
00:07:05,224 --> 00:07:07,158
Do you knowthe friends
she hangs outwith?
112
00:07:07,193 --> 00:07:10,253
I got enough
taking care of my own.
113
00:07:11,898 --> 00:07:14,731
She did used to run
with this girl down the hall.
114
00:07:14,767 --> 00:07:16,064
But they moved
115
00:07:16,102 --> 00:07:18,502
to the projects
up on 109th.
116
00:07:18,538 --> 00:07:19,732
Do you know
her last name?
117
00:07:19,772 --> 00:07:22,036
Hardison?
118
00:07:22,074 --> 00:07:24,065
Leona, I think.
119
00:07:29,615 --> 00:07:31,606
This one fits.
120
00:07:37,256 --> 00:07:39,247
Leona Hardisonl
121
00:07:40,259 --> 00:07:41,556
Hey, hey, come on.
122
00:07:41,594 --> 00:07:43,653
We just want to ask you
a few questions.
123
00:07:43,696 --> 00:07:45,288
I don't talk
to the Man.
124
00:07:45,331 --> 00:07:47,891
Logan: Do you know
Astrea Crawford?
Maybe.
125
00:07:47,934 --> 00:07:49,765
You know
she's been missing?
126
00:07:49,802 --> 00:07:51,997
What kind of "missing"?
127
00:07:52,038 --> 00:07:54,006
Attacked missing.
128
00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:56,531
Maybe raped
missing.
129
00:07:56,576 --> 00:07:57,907
So you say?
130
00:07:57,944 --> 00:08:00,344
You don't seem
too upset by that.
131
00:08:00,379 --> 00:08:02,347
Me and herââ
we don't hang
no more.
132
00:08:02,381 --> 00:08:05,782
Still--
No still, "Bill."
We fell out.
133
00:08:05,818 --> 00:08:07,786
Over a guy?
134
00:08:07,820 --> 00:08:10,380
Do I look
like I would lose
a guy to her?
135
00:08:10,423 --> 00:08:12,084
Do you know
her friend Hill?
136
00:08:12,124 --> 00:08:13,887
Yeah.
137
00:08:13,926 --> 00:08:15,917
Logan:
Want to give us
his ďŹrst name?
138
00:08:15,962 --> 00:08:18,294
Jordan.
139
00:08:18,331 --> 00:08:21,960
Where can we find
Mr. Jordan Hill, Leona?
140
00:08:22,001 --> 00:08:23,730
Well, if he's
out ofjail
141
00:08:23,769 --> 00:08:25,964
he'd be doing
community service.
142
00:08:27,940 --> 00:08:30,272
"Remember a kid
named Jordan Hill?"
143
00:08:30,309 --> 00:08:32,641
You gotta
be kidding.
144
00:08:32,678 --> 00:08:35,977
Any given day,
I get 175 actives.
145
00:08:36,015 --> 00:08:39,007
If it ain't
multiple homicide
146
00:08:39,051 --> 00:08:40,678
the best
I can do maybe
147
00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:43,154
is notes on the day
ofthe bust.
148
00:08:43,189 --> 00:08:44,486
If we're lucky,
149
00:08:44,524 --> 00:08:46,389
we're given
a runâthrough
of the day or days
150
00:08:46,425 --> 00:08:49,292
prior to the crime,
see where they screwed up.
151
00:08:50,696 --> 00:08:52,664
You saw Hill
after the arraignment.
152
00:08:52,698 --> 00:08:57,226
Yeah, I managed to slide him
into a detox space.
153
00:08:57,270 --> 00:08:59,067
He ever mention
anything about a girl
154
00:08:59,105 --> 00:09:01,039
named
Astrea Crawford?
155
00:09:01,073 --> 00:09:02,665
Sorry.
156
00:09:02,708 --> 00:09:04,005
Baâbingl
157
00:09:04,043 --> 00:09:05,943
Says he spent the early
afternoon with her
158
00:09:05,978 --> 00:09:07,843
the day
he was arrested.
159
00:09:09,248 --> 00:09:11,478
That's him
over there.
160
00:09:17,089 --> 00:09:20,650
Worker#1: This isn't
coming off, man.
Worker #2: Scrub harder.
161
00:09:23,696 --> 00:09:26,893
Got a good job here,
Jordan.
162
00:09:29,368 --> 00:09:31,302
500 hours
of community service?
163
00:09:31,337 --> 00:09:34,363
Hell of ajob.
What do you want?
164
00:09:34,407 --> 00:09:36,136
Seen Astrea
lately?
165
00:09:36,175 --> 00:09:38,109
Why, is she in trouble?
166
00:09:38,144 --> 00:09:40,112
When was the last time
you saw her?
167
00:09:40,146 --> 00:09:42,273
Four or five days.
168
00:09:42,315 --> 00:09:44,180
Look, I want to know
if Astrea's okay.
169
00:09:44,216 --> 00:09:45,478
Where was that?
170
00:09:45,518 --> 00:09:47,509
Some hanger on 103.
171
00:09:47,553 --> 00:09:50,215
Specifically
what day, Jordan?
172
00:09:50,256 --> 00:09:51,814
I don't know.
173
00:09:51,857 --> 00:09:53,984
Hey, don't
grease us, okay?
174
00:09:54,026 --> 00:09:56,051
I am not
in the mood.
175
00:09:56,095 --> 00:09:57,960
Now, was she
with you
176
00:09:57,997 --> 00:09:59,658
the day
you got busted
in the sweep?
177
00:09:59,699 --> 00:10:01,792
I don't know.
178
00:10:01,834 --> 00:10:04,064
You know, we pulled
your yellow sheet,
Jordan.
179
00:10:04,103 --> 00:10:06,901
The last time
you got busted
for crack
180
00:10:06,939 --> 00:10:08,804
you got a nice
little program.
181
00:10:08,841 --> 00:10:11,332
Court's full of people
who'd like to take
your place.
182
00:10:11,377 --> 00:10:13,504
Mike, Mr. Hill's
had a tough week.
183
00:10:13,546 --> 00:10:14,774
Give me your hand.
184
00:10:14,814 --> 00:10:17,180
What?
Give me
your hand.
185
00:10:22,488 --> 00:10:24,479
Remember
today, Jordan
186
00:10:24,523 --> 00:10:26,923
and call me...
187
00:10:29,095 --> 00:10:31,086
before
quitting time.
188
00:10:37,370 --> 00:10:39,964
Logan:
12 people arrested
in this dump?
189
00:10:41,707 --> 00:10:43,197
(whistles )
190
00:10:43,242 --> 00:10:47,508
Snow cone in hell
we find anything
to place her in here.
191
00:10:47,546 --> 00:10:49,946
Might as well
call Forensics
in anyway.
192
00:10:49,982 --> 00:10:52,780
What do you
expect to find,
Max?
193
00:10:52,818 --> 00:10:54,945
This is gonna be
a nightmare
for a team.
194
00:10:54,987 --> 00:10:57,421
You got prints
in here going back
to the Civil War.
195
00:10:57,456 --> 00:11:00,823
Maybe we'll get
the goods on the guy
who killed Lincoln.
196
00:11:01,927 --> 00:11:05,488
Anyway...
that's all we gotââ
procedure.
197
00:11:05,531 --> 00:11:08,432
Let's go see
if the girl's
calmed down any.
198
00:11:12,772 --> 00:11:15,002
P.A. :
Dr. Miller. 3-5-4â 1,
199
00:11:15,041 --> 00:11:17,942
Dr. Miller,
3â 5â4â 1 .
200
00:11:19,211 --> 00:11:21,611
Guard:
Sorry, gentlemen.
No visitors at this time.
201
00:11:21,647 --> 00:11:24,411
Consider yourjob
well done.
202
00:11:25,484 --> 00:11:27,509
You got
a second?
203
00:11:29,488 --> 00:11:32,048
The family has
hired itself
an advisor.
204
00:11:32,091 --> 00:11:34,252
Everything's got
to run through him
at this point.
205
00:11:34,293 --> 00:11:35,453
What?
206
00:11:35,494 --> 00:11:37,257
You may
have some trouble
207
00:11:37,296 --> 00:11:38,957
getting statements
out ofthe girl.
208
00:11:38,998 --> 00:11:40,260
Why is that?
209
00:11:40,299 --> 00:11:43,166
Are you familiar
with the good Ronald Eaton?
210
00:11:43,202 --> 00:11:45,295
Congressman
Ronald Eaton?
211
00:11:46,939 --> 00:11:48,531
Oh, great.
212
00:11:48,574 --> 00:11:50,439
No crime scene,
no physical evidence.
213
00:11:50,476 --> 00:11:53,274
No witnesses,
holes appearing
by the hour,
214
00:11:53,312 --> 00:11:54,745
a mute vic,
and now we've got
215
00:11:54,780 --> 00:11:56,873
"Mr. Civil Rights
Soundbite"
216
00:11:56,916 --> 00:11:58,907
putting on
his makeâup.
217
00:12:02,688 --> 00:12:04,883
Problem,
Detective?
218
00:12:04,924 --> 00:12:06,482
Sergeant
Greevey.
219
00:12:06,525 --> 00:12:08,015
This is
Detective Logan.
220
00:12:08,060 --> 00:12:09,891
And yes,
I have problems
221
00:12:09,929 --> 00:12:12,489
when prevented
from doing myjob,
Congressman.
222
00:12:12,531 --> 00:12:15,762
I suffer
the same frustrations,
Sergeant.
223
00:12:15,801 --> 00:12:17,530
Meaning?
224
00:12:17,570 --> 00:12:19,629
My concern
is with the gin,
225
00:12:19,672 --> 00:12:22,334
That her cries forjustice
are not steamrolled
226
00:12:22,374 --> 00:12:25,241
by the old whiteâboy
power structure.
227
00:12:25,277 --> 00:12:27,336
Logan:
Well, it's a little
premature to be
228
00:12:27,379 --> 00:12:29,438
shouting coverâup,
isn't it?
229
00:12:29,482 --> 00:12:31,279
Eaton:
Premature?
Yeah.
230
00:12:31,317 --> 00:12:33,410
How many black
homicide cases
231
00:12:33,452 --> 00:12:35,886
does your precinct
not clear every year?
232
00:12:35,921 --> 00:12:38,287
And how many
white cases?
233
00:12:38,324 --> 00:12:40,656
Now, you've seen
the numbers.
234
00:12:40,693 --> 00:12:43,491
Don't tell me
what "premature" is.
235
00:12:43,529 --> 00:12:45,963
And you think
withholding pertinent
information
236
00:12:45,998 --> 00:12:49,024
in this case is going
to change all that?
237
00:12:49,068 --> 00:12:50,695
I think it'll get
the attention
238
00:12:50,736 --> 00:12:52,363
of state and federal
authorities.
239
00:12:52,404 --> 00:12:54,167
The FBI has
already been notified
240
00:12:54,206 --> 00:12:57,141
about any potential
civil rights violations.
241
00:12:57,176 --> 00:12:59,576
Thatjust means they'll be
looking over your shoulder.
242
00:12:59,612 --> 00:13:01,546
I want them
staring you in the face.
243
00:13:03,883 --> 00:13:07,080
Keep away from us.
We don't need help
from no white cops.
244
00:13:07,119 --> 00:13:09,383
Wife:
Lester, please.
245
00:13:10,623 --> 00:13:12,614
Excuse me.
246
00:13:13,993 --> 00:13:15,483
Oh-â
247
00:13:15,528 --> 00:13:18,929
one "g" in Logan,
am I right?
248
00:13:18,964 --> 00:13:21,524
Yeah. Why?
249
00:13:21,567 --> 00:13:23,159
Hate for you gentlemen
250
00:13:23,202 --> 00:13:25,727
to see your names
misspelled in the papers.
251
00:13:25,771 --> 00:13:28,239
P. A. :
Dr. MacKenzie, 2â9â4â3,
252
00:13:28,274 --> 00:13:30,139
Dr. MacKenzie. ..
253
00:13:32,878 --> 00:13:34,368
( knocking )
254
00:13:37,316 --> 00:13:39,511
Messengered in
this morning.
255
00:13:39,552 --> 00:13:40,917
Eaton wants
a photo array.
256
00:13:40,953 --> 00:13:43,751
Max:
"All the white cops
257
00:13:43,789 --> 00:13:46,189
working or residing
on the Upper West Side"?
258
00:13:46,225 --> 00:13:47,954
He can't
be serious.
259
00:13:47,993 --> 00:13:49,756
This guy
has got stones, huh?
260
00:13:49,795 --> 00:13:52,491
Stone:
Except for his mouth,
the Congressman's got squat.
261
00:13:52,531 --> 00:13:54,396
If there are
wrong cops in this precinct
262
00:13:54,433 --> 00:13:56,401
I want them
as bad as he does,
but I will be damned
263
00:13:56,435 --> 00:13:58,926
if he's going to put
every cop on trial.
264
00:13:58,971 --> 00:14:00,734
What if he
goes over your head?
265
00:14:00,773 --> 00:14:04,573
He probably already has,
but until I hear
differently,
266
00:14:04,610 --> 00:14:06,737
we conduct this
like any other
investigation.
267
00:14:06,779 --> 00:14:08,474
We got anything
on the parents?
268
00:14:08,514 --> 00:14:09,947
Model citizens.
269
00:14:09,982 --> 00:14:12,382
Mother's an xâray technician.
Father's a cab driver.
270
00:14:12,418 --> 00:14:14,613
Deacon of his church.
Not even a traffic ticket.
271
00:14:14,653 --> 00:14:16,553
What about the FBI?
272
00:14:16,589 --> 00:14:19,251
They're monitoring.
Waiting on the results
ofthe rape kit.
273
00:14:19,291 --> 00:14:20,883
When's that girl
due to be released?
274
00:14:20,926 --> 00:14:22,086
Tomorrow morning.
275
00:14:22,127 --> 00:14:24,618
I want her in here
before noon for questioning.
276
00:14:24,663 --> 00:14:26,221
With or without Eaton?
277
00:14:26,265 --> 00:14:27,755
Without.
He is not her lawyer.
278
00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:30,428
He has a problem with that,
he takes an obstruction charge.
279
00:14:30,469 --> 00:14:33,097
Let him see
what his spin doctors
can do with that.
280
00:14:33,138 --> 00:14:34,571
Ooh, man.
281
00:14:34,607 --> 00:14:36,632
You care to elaborate
on that, Detective?
282
00:14:36,675 --> 00:14:40,076
I'm just wondering
how much gas this fire
can take.
283
00:14:40,112 --> 00:14:41,579
Meaning what?
284
00:14:41,614 --> 00:14:45,744
Meaning she's the victim.
We're treating her
like a suspect.
285
00:15:05,437 --> 00:15:07,234
Max:
Let's keep this
low profile.
286
00:15:07,273 --> 00:15:08,831
I don't want you
out of the car
287
00:15:08,874 --> 00:15:10,865
unless a riot's
about to start.
288
00:15:20,986 --> 00:15:23,648
She already told you,
she's not here.
289
00:15:23,689 --> 00:15:26,556
Mr. Crawford, come on,
we just want to ask
a few questions.
290
00:15:26,592 --> 00:15:28,924
The longer we wait,
the greater the chances
291
00:15:28,961 --> 00:15:30,895
of her forgetting
details.
292
00:15:30,930 --> 00:15:32,898
Good.
I'm glad to see
293
00:15:32,932 --> 00:15:35,059
you got her best
interests at heart.
294
00:15:35,100 --> 00:15:36,863
The congressman
told us
295
00:15:36,902 --> 00:15:38,494
that you'd be
coming here to get her.
296
00:15:38,537 --> 00:15:41,700
Told us that you
would grind her up
297
00:15:41,740 --> 00:15:43,298
so you could
bury her story.
298
00:15:43,342 --> 00:15:46,368
He told us.
It's okay,
baby.
299
00:15:46,412 --> 00:15:48,039
Mrs. Crawford,
300
00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:51,208
I'm sure that whatever
Congressman Eaton told you
301
00:15:51,250 --> 00:15:53,013
was wellâintentioned
butââ
302
00:15:53,052 --> 00:15:54,952
Well, you can't
get to her now
303
00:15:54,987 --> 00:15:57,114
You can't
touch her.
304
00:15:57,156 --> 00:16:00,751
The police
raped my babyââ
305
00:16:00,793 --> 00:16:03,227
killed her
inside.
306
00:16:03,262 --> 00:16:06,254
He told us
that you'd
be coming here
307
00:16:06,298 --> 00:16:09,756
with your filthy hands
to protect your own.
308
00:16:09,802 --> 00:16:11,531
Well, you can't
get her.
309
00:16:11,570 --> 00:16:13,470
She's safe now,
do you understand?
310
00:16:13,505 --> 00:16:16,440
You can't get her!
She's safe, you hearâ?
311
00:16:16,475 --> 00:16:18,306
Lord, Ijust
can't take no moreââI
Are you satisfied?
312
00:16:18,344 --> 00:16:21,245
You think you got
some kind of license
to come and do this crap?
313
00:16:21,280 --> 00:16:23,271
To rip open
people's lives?
314
00:16:24,550 --> 00:16:26,814
Max:
The parents don't
trust the police.
315
00:16:26,852 --> 00:16:28,683
Of course not.
316
00:16:28,721 --> 00:16:31,019
That's 'cause
Eaton's involved.
317
00:16:31,056 --> 00:16:34,423
I give the bastard an hour
to have the press out
in full force.
318
00:16:34,460 --> 00:16:36,223
Didn't know
you knewthe man.
319
00:16:36,261 --> 00:16:38,456
Since the King
assassination,
320
00:16:38,497 --> 00:16:40,931
back when he was
"Uhuru" Eaton.
321
00:16:40,966 --> 00:16:42,934
He staged a sitâin
at City Hall.
322
00:16:42,968 --> 00:16:45,698
Demanded 1OO buses
to take people
to the funeral.
323
00:16:45,738 --> 00:16:48,707
Not the worst reason
in the world to have a sitâin.
324
00:16:48,741 --> 00:16:50,834
That's what I thought,
until he told me
325
00:16:50,876 --> 00:16:54,676
he was going to burn the place
if he didn't get what he wanted.
326
00:16:54,713 --> 00:16:57,580
Things got out of control.
People got hurt.
327
00:16:57,616 --> 00:16:59,550
The man is dangerous.
328
00:17:02,788 --> 00:17:04,551
See what...
329
00:17:04,590 --> 00:17:07,388
what'sâherânameââ
the rape specialist's got.
330
00:17:10,095 --> 00:17:11,562
I'm out
of the loop.
331
00:17:11,597 --> 00:17:13,326
Your choice?
332
00:17:13,365 --> 00:17:15,299
Let's just say
333
00:17:15,334 --> 00:17:17,802
I'm not about tojump
on Eaton's bandwagon.
334
00:17:17,836 --> 00:17:20,134
Where's he taking
this thing, you think?
335
00:17:20,172 --> 00:17:21,230
Off the record?
336
00:17:22,708 --> 00:17:24,903
I'm sure he's got
some political agenda.
337
00:17:24,943 --> 00:17:26,535
He always does.
338
00:17:26,578 --> 00:17:29,570
Whether Astrea
was raped or not
has taken a back seat.
339
00:17:29,615 --> 00:17:31,446
You don't know
if she was raped?
340
00:17:31,483 --> 00:17:33,974
You got
the lab report,
you tell me,
341
00:17:35,254 --> 00:17:37,586
End of business today.
342
00:17:37,623 --> 00:17:39,523
Something happened
to her,
343
00:17:39,558 --> 00:17:42,459
but I'll be surprised
ifthe kit comes back positive.
344
00:17:45,597 --> 00:17:48,430
All right, suppose
for whatever dimestore
psychology reason,
345
00:17:48,467 --> 00:17:49,729
it is a hoax.
346
00:17:49,768 --> 00:17:51,633
She had
to stay somewhere
for three days.
347
00:17:51,670 --> 00:17:54,161
I knowwhere
you're going, Max.
348
00:17:54,206 --> 00:17:55,798
And if
you're thinking
the boyfriend,
349
00:17:55,841 --> 00:17:57,308
I'm telling you,
the crack house
350
00:17:57,342 --> 00:17:58,934
is going
to get us nowhere.
351
00:17:58,977 --> 00:18:01,275
Even if we're lucky
with Forensics.
352
00:18:01,313 --> 00:18:04,180
I doubt
they'll be able
to timeframe it.
353
00:18:04,216 --> 00:18:07,185
At best, it'll be
weak, circumstantial
evidence.
354
00:18:07,219 --> 00:18:08,846
How about
we get on the board
355
00:18:08,887 --> 00:18:11,583
before we start
secondâguessing
evidence we don't have?
356
00:18:12,858 --> 00:18:14,849
( radio chatter)
357
00:18:14,893 --> 00:18:17,020
(cameras snap)
358
00:18:17,062 --> 00:18:20,327
Logan:
Max, I was up till 2:00
in the morning last night,
359
00:18:20,365 --> 00:18:23,095
watching one of those
old Chaplin films,
360
00:18:23,135 --> 00:18:25,330
"Modern Times. "
361
00:18:25,370 --> 00:18:27,770
No wonder you drag
your butt until noon.
362
00:18:27,806 --> 00:18:29,364
What do you want?
363
00:18:29,408 --> 00:18:31,239
I only had
halfthe bed.
364
00:18:31,276 --> 00:18:33,471
You still dragging
things home?
365
00:18:33,512 --> 00:18:35,673
Heyââ this one's
different, man.
366
00:18:35,714 --> 00:18:36,738
Really.
367
00:18:36,782 --> 00:18:38,443
She's an NYU
film student.
368
00:18:38,484 --> 00:18:40,884
She's really,
really smart.
369
00:18:40,919 --> 00:18:43,649
Right, let me guessââ
she wears a lot of black?
370
00:18:43,689 --> 00:18:46,249
She likes cops.
371
00:18:46,291 --> 00:18:48,088
She says it
makes her
372
00:18:48,127 --> 00:18:49,958
feel connected
to real life.
373
00:18:49,995 --> 00:18:53,123
Oh, she loves
guns.
374
00:18:53,165 --> 00:18:54,928
Snubnoses, too?
375
00:18:54,967 --> 00:18:56,628
( both chuckle)
376
00:18:58,971 --> 00:19:01,303
quote, "Get in, it's really
hit the fan."
377
00:19:01,340 --> 00:19:03,808
Reporter:
...to a live minicam
where Congressman Eaton
378
00:19:03,842 --> 00:19:06,743
has declared the former
Baptist church a sanctuanl.
379
00:19:06,778 --> 00:19:08,405
Cragen:
So Eaton has
no legal ground?
380
00:19:08,447 --> 00:19:09,971
No, sanctuary
doesn't apply.
381
00:19:10,015 --> 00:19:12,677
It certainly doesn't
apply ifthe building
isn't a church.
382
00:19:12,718 --> 00:19:14,549
That doesn't change
people's perceptions.
383
00:19:14,586 --> 00:19:15,644
It used
to be a church.
384
00:19:15,687 --> 00:19:17,245
You yank her in
for questioning now,
385
00:19:17,289 --> 00:19:19,120
we'll have a massive
backlash on our hands.
386
00:19:19,158 --> 00:19:21,683
( phone rings )
387
00:19:21,727 --> 00:19:24,924
What? Yeah,
put him through.
388
00:19:24,963 --> 00:19:26,931
Max, what the hell
is going on?
389
00:19:28,934 --> 00:19:30,094
10 minutes.
390
00:19:30,135 --> 00:19:33,536
I think we better
get over there.
391
00:19:34,106 --> 00:19:35,198
Eaton:
You've heard
the expression
392
00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:37,105
"taking the law
into your own hands"?
393
00:19:37,142 --> 00:19:39,133
These are your hands.
( cheers )
394
00:19:39,178 --> 00:19:41,544
Is this a government
ofthe people?
Crowd: Yesl
395
00:19:41,580 --> 00:19:44,572
Are you
the people?
Yesl
396
00:19:44,616 --> 00:19:46,550
Logan: And you
are the government...
397
00:19:53,091 --> 00:19:55,252
Three rings.
398
00:19:55,294 --> 00:19:57,558
Eaton's doing his
"Barnum" imitation.
399
00:19:57,596 --> 00:19:59,791
3:00ââjust in time
for the evening news.
400
00:19:59,831 --> 00:20:01,389
Why don't we lose
the squad cars
401
00:20:01,433 --> 00:20:03,264
and downplay
the entire thing?
402
00:20:03,302 --> 00:20:05,327
That solve
your perception problem?
403
00:20:05,370 --> 00:20:07,497
I say we go up
and haul her butt in.
404
00:20:07,539 --> 00:20:09,905
We don't, it's going to look
like he's got the names
405
00:20:09,942 --> 00:20:11,500
and the entire force
is on the run.
406
00:20:11,543 --> 00:20:13,340
Eaton has named cops?
407
00:20:13,378 --> 00:20:17,337
Teal and Rudolph,
a couple of night shift
uniforms from 7â3.
408
00:20:17,382 --> 00:20:18,747
Don't know them.
409
00:20:18,784 --> 00:20:21,344
I'm advising you
not to go in, Captain.
410
00:20:21,386 --> 00:20:23,320
Max, go make
the congressman an offer.
411
00:20:23,355 --> 00:20:25,186
Let him know
you're here only to talk.
412
00:20:25,224 --> 00:20:27,658
We're offering to hear
Astrea's side of the story.
413
00:20:27,693 --> 00:20:30,594
But it's got
to come from the girl.
Nobody else.
414
00:20:30,629 --> 00:20:32,722
You know him.
You should go talk
to him.
415
00:20:32,764 --> 00:20:34,356
Max, I hate
the man.
416
00:20:34,399 --> 00:20:35,730
Captainââ
Forget it.
417
00:20:35,767 --> 00:20:37,394
I want you
to go on in.
418
00:20:37,436 --> 00:20:39,597
But no arrests
and no removal
for questioning.
419
00:20:39,638 --> 00:20:41,162
You're making
a mistake.
420
00:20:41,206 --> 00:20:43,902
Eaton:
...b y laziness,
421
00:20:43,942 --> 00:20:46,877
...by acceptance
of the status quo...
422
00:20:46,912 --> 00:20:49,938
Those changes were prompted
by a call to action!
423
00:20:49,982 --> 00:20:51,847
( crowd cheers )
424
00:20:51,883 --> 00:20:53,248
We're not here
to take her in,
425
00:20:53,285 --> 00:20:55,150
wejust want to hear
her side of the story.
426
00:20:55,187 --> 00:20:58,953
Astrea's presence here
signifies her recognition
427
00:20:58,991 --> 00:21:01,721
that any relief
that she is to receive
428
00:21:01,760 --> 00:21:04,558
will have to come
from a higher authority.
429
00:21:04,596 --> 00:21:08,032
I cannot stop them
from entering this church
430
00:21:08,066 --> 00:21:09,727
but I will
lay down my life
431
00:21:09,768 --> 00:21:12,430
to protect the rights
of black women everywhere.
432
00:21:12,471 --> 00:21:13,961
( cheering )
433
00:21:14,006 --> 00:21:17,567
Be it from youââ
from your uniformed brethren,
434
00:21:17,609 --> 00:21:19,440
or an entire city.
435
00:21:19,478 --> 00:21:21,241
( crowd cheers, shouts )
436
00:21:22,848 --> 00:21:25,408
( chants )
437
00:21:29,554 --> 00:21:31,852
Eaton:
Do you hear it?
438
00:21:36,862 --> 00:21:39,695
That is the sound
of rage, gentlemen.
439
00:21:40,932 --> 00:21:44,129
And it's a rage
that will be louder
in 24 hours,
440
00:21:44,169 --> 00:21:46,831
and louder than that
in 48.
441
00:21:46,872 --> 00:21:48,897
And that is the fault
442
00:21:48,940 --> 00:21:50,908
of the New York City
Police Department,
443
00:21:50,942 --> 00:21:53,035
which doesn't even
have the sensitivity
444
00:21:53,078 --> 00:21:56,343
to send a black
investigator up here.
445
00:21:56,381 --> 00:21:58,406
But it's also
the fault...
446
00:21:58,450 --> 00:22:01,681
of corrupt and crumbling
black officials
447
00:22:01,720 --> 00:22:03,950
who will sell
their very soul
448
00:22:03,989 --> 00:22:06,423
in the betrayal
of their own people.
449
00:22:06,458 --> 00:22:08,619
It will not stop...
450
00:22:08,660 --> 00:22:11,390
until the fires of oppression
have been quenched.
451
00:22:13,398 --> 00:22:14,990
Until the racial
inequities
452
00:22:15,033 --> 00:22:17,365
and the sexual
abuses of whiteââ
453
00:22:17,402 --> 00:22:19,199
Stopl
Stop it!
454
00:22:19,237 --> 00:22:21,330
Astrea, do you
want to talk to us?
455
00:22:21,373 --> 00:22:23,705
The child is traumatized.
I won't allow her
to be badgered.
456
00:22:23,742 --> 00:22:25,107
Stay out of this.
457
00:22:25,143 --> 00:22:27,941
M i ke-â
Understand something,
Detective.
458
00:22:27,979 --> 00:22:30,038
You are dangerously close
to a civil suit.
459
00:22:30,082 --> 00:22:32,016
Oh, that's fine,
Congressman.
460
00:22:32,050 --> 00:22:34,883
While you're
hunting for some ink,
what about her case?
461
00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:36,820
Hey, come on now.
462
00:22:36,855 --> 00:22:39,619
Let's please
stick to the point.
We're getting nothingââ
463
00:22:39,658 --> 00:22:42,183
You're
getting nothing?
464
00:22:42,227 --> 00:22:44,491
You got
no business here.
465
00:22:44,529 --> 00:22:46,394
You're just trying
to break her emotionally.
466
00:22:46,431 --> 00:22:48,092
I can't do this!
I don't want to hear it.
Please!
467
00:22:48,133 --> 00:22:50,897
Oh, my God.
My baby!
468
00:22:50,936 --> 00:22:54,099
Oh. my babyââ
please, oh, Godl
469
00:23:12,958 --> 00:23:15,950
Reporter:
What's going on, Detective?
Is the ambulance for Astrea?
470
00:23:15,994 --> 00:23:18,622
No comment.
How come white cops are
here to interrogate her
471
00:23:18,663 --> 00:23:20,961
when there have
been accusations that
white cops raped her?
472
00:23:20,999 --> 00:23:22,694
The department
has no comment
473
00:23:22,734 --> 00:23:26,261
other than to state
that we were there
only to listen.
474
00:23:26,304 --> 00:23:28,966
We're not asking Ms. Crawford
to accompany us to the station.
475
00:23:29,007 --> 00:23:30,736
There aren't even
any black uniformed.
476
00:23:30,776 --> 00:23:33,677
What message is
the city trying to send
to the black community?
477
00:23:33,712 --> 00:23:36,237
( reporters shout )
478
00:23:36,281 --> 00:23:38,875
Terrific,
exactly what we needed.
She accuses a white...
479
00:23:38,917 --> 00:23:40,475
Cragen:
You saw the statement.
480
00:23:40,519 --> 00:23:42,043
We did not go in
to take her out.
481
00:23:42,087 --> 00:23:44,885
The statement means nothing
when she's carted off
in an ambulance.
482
00:23:44,923 --> 00:23:46,788
She accuses white cops
and I don't even seeââ
483
00:23:46,825 --> 00:23:50,454
Damn it, don't
come into my office
and accuse my people.
484
00:23:50,495 --> 00:23:52,486
Use your head.
You jumped into this
485
00:23:52,531 --> 00:23:54,465
like it's some
byâtheânumbers rape.
486
00:23:54,499 --> 00:23:57,627
It's a whole collection
of unveriďŹed accusations,
487
00:23:57,669 --> 00:23:59,864
news flashes
and soundbites.
Fine.
488
00:23:59,905 --> 00:24:02,100
You got
anything under your hat
besides speeches?
489
00:24:02,140 --> 00:24:04,870
Yeah, your people are
yanked off this case
as of now.
490
00:24:04,910 --> 00:24:06,901
This is no longer
a police matter.
491
00:24:16,955 --> 00:24:19,321
"Police drive
Crawford girl to breakdown."
492
00:24:21,359 --> 00:24:23,350
Nothing like starting
in your own end zone.
493
00:24:23,395 --> 00:24:25,454
Nine yards in.
494
00:24:25,497 --> 00:24:27,488
Cragen's office
called last night.
495
00:24:27,532 --> 00:24:29,193
The two uniforms
Eaton named
496
00:24:29,234 --> 00:24:31,725
have substantiated alibis
for the time in question.
497
00:24:31,770 --> 00:24:34,398
Did you see this?
FBI's rape kit results.
498
00:24:34,439 --> 00:24:37,840
No indications:
gynecological tests,
forensics, all negative.
499
00:24:37,876 --> 00:24:39,901
She faked it.
500
00:24:39,945 --> 00:24:42,470
At this point all we know
is what's on paper.
501
00:24:42,514 --> 00:24:45,779
You think Eaton is willing
to stake his political
future on this?
502
00:24:45,817 --> 00:24:47,785
Ifthis plays out,
he's a genius.
503
00:24:47,819 --> 00:24:50,788
He goes from gang member
to rabblerouser
to congressman
504
00:24:50,822 --> 00:24:53,484
to spokesman for the entire
black community.
505
00:24:53,525 --> 00:24:56,153
He's an urban
Horatio Alger.
506
00:24:56,194 --> 00:24:58,526
"Go militant,
young man."
507
00:24:58,563 --> 00:25:00,690
Or it turns south and he loses
whatever credence
508
00:25:00,732 --> 00:25:02,324
he has on both sides
ofthe track.
509
00:25:02,367 --> 00:25:04,597
Do you see any indication
of it turning south?
510
00:25:04,636 --> 00:25:06,695
Because the whole
burden of proof is on us.
511
00:25:06,738 --> 00:25:09,002
And he's put
the whole system on trial.
512
00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:10,564
So this isn't
enough, then?
513
00:25:10,609 --> 00:25:12,201
If we don't
disprove a coverâup
514
00:25:12,244 --> 00:25:14,872
even! minority
in this city will
assume Eaton is right
515
00:25:14,913 --> 00:25:16,972
no matter how many
lab reports we publish.
516
00:25:18,283 --> 00:25:20,308
So how do we
counter the momentum?
517
00:25:20,352 --> 00:25:22,343
Call Eaton.
518
00:25:30,529 --> 00:25:33,123
An interesting place
for a meeting.
519
00:25:34,666 --> 00:25:37,533
I thought you should
see firstâhand what
it's all about.
520
00:25:37,569 --> 00:25:40,094
Maybe the cobwebs
will fall.
521
00:25:40,138 --> 00:25:41,765
From our eyes?
522
00:25:41,806 --> 00:25:43,535
From your heart.
523
00:25:43,575 --> 00:25:46,339
My best wishes
for the girl's
health aside,
524
00:25:46,378 --> 00:25:47,970
I didn't come here
for a speech.
525
00:25:48,013 --> 00:25:49,173
I know that,
Mr. Stone,
526
00:25:49,214 --> 00:25:51,205
or I wouldn't have
agreed to see you.
527
00:25:57,489 --> 00:26:00,185
You want to know
where I'm planning
on taking this.
528
00:26:00,225 --> 00:26:02,989
You want me
to give you
529
00:26:03,028 --> 00:26:04,996
a free glimpse
of the future.
530
00:26:05,030 --> 00:26:07,225
It's fairly
obvious you have
a private agenda.
531
00:26:07,265 --> 00:26:09,563
Of course
I have an agenda.
532
00:26:09,601 --> 00:26:13,162
Your system isn't
serving the AfricanâAmerican
segment ofthe population.
533
00:26:13,204 --> 00:26:15,434
Let's dial this
back a a second.
534
00:26:15,473 --> 00:26:18,909
Does your system
have any evidence
the rape was committed?
535
00:26:18,944 --> 00:26:22,380
My system has found
nothing to suggest a crime
actually took place.
536
00:26:22,414 --> 00:26:25,872
Nor do I have
access to the victim.
537
00:26:25,917 --> 00:26:28,181
And you won't.
538
00:26:28,219 --> 00:26:30,619
I believe Astrea
completely.
539
00:26:30,655 --> 00:26:34,250
But if I give you
what she's got,
540
00:26:34,292 --> 00:26:36,692
I run the risk
of it being squashed.
541
00:26:36,728 --> 00:26:38,889
You think I don't know
how many people
542
00:26:38,930 --> 00:26:40,955
would like to see
this thing disappear?
543
00:26:40,999 --> 00:26:42,364
Even if there was
a cover-up
544
00:26:42,400 --> 00:26:44,800
the press have made that
impossible to stage.
545
00:26:44,836 --> 00:26:47,270
That's not a risk
I'm willing to take.
546
00:26:47,305 --> 00:26:49,239
We've come too far.
547
00:26:49,274 --> 00:26:51,071
But you are
willing to risk
548
00:26:51,109 --> 00:26:52,770
the emotional health
of a teenager
549
00:26:52,811 --> 00:26:54,779
and my ability to try
the perpetrators?
550
00:26:54,813 --> 00:26:56,838
(sighs)
551
00:26:56,881 --> 00:27:00,442
I'm only here
to help the Cravvfords.
552
00:27:00,485 --> 00:27:01,713
Lookââ you want
to do
553
00:27:01,753 --> 00:27:03,914
your Martin Luther King
imitation, be my guest.
554
00:27:03,955 --> 00:27:06,446
Don't think
for one second
that I'm giving up.
555
00:27:06,491 --> 00:27:09,790
I don't care if Astrea
is black, white, yellow
or polkaâdotted,
556
00:27:09,828 --> 00:27:12,388
if she was raped,
I'll find the cops
557
00:27:12,430 --> 00:27:14,762
I'll prosecute them
and I'll convict them.
558
00:27:14,799 --> 00:27:18,929
White cops,
black girl?
559
00:27:18,970 --> 00:27:21,564
If?
560
00:27:21,606 --> 00:27:24,234
Who are you kidding?
561
00:27:24,275 --> 00:27:27,108
You don't want me
to find them, do you?
562
00:27:27,145 --> 00:27:30,842
Why shoot rats when
you can go bigâgame hunting?
563
00:27:30,882 --> 00:27:33,749
And whose heads do you
want on yourwall?
564
00:27:33,785 --> 00:27:37,482
Cragen's,
the Police Commissioner's...
565
00:27:37,522 --> 00:27:40,286
yours.
566
00:27:40,325 --> 00:27:43,123
There he is.
Can you a give us
statement, Mr. Stone?
567
00:27:43,161 --> 00:27:45,925
We are trying
to investigate a crime
568
00:27:45,964 --> 00:27:48,125
without any assistance
from the alleged victim.
569
00:27:48,166 --> 00:27:50,134
"Alleged"?
Does that mean
the DA
570
00:27:50,168 --> 00:27:51,692
does not believe
Astrea Crawford's
story?
571
00:27:51,736 --> 00:27:55,172
The temperature
on the nights in question
was in the low 30s,
572
00:27:55,206 --> 00:27:58,107
yet emergency room personnel
found no evidence of exposure.
573
00:27:58,143 --> 00:28:01,476
The FBI-â not the NYPD
ran a rape kit.
574
00:28:01,513 --> 00:28:04,676
The results were negative.
You can draw your own
conclusions.
575
00:28:04,716 --> 00:28:08,174
Why was the request
for a photo array
ofthe cops denied, sir?
576
00:28:08,219 --> 00:28:10,847
The police
have adhered to normal
investigative procedure.
577
00:28:10,889 --> 00:28:13,084
Eaton:
What if the gin
had been white?
578
00:28:13,124 --> 00:28:16,890
Would you have released
photos of black cops?
579
00:28:17,962 --> 00:28:20,192
ADA Stone and I
580
00:28:20,231 --> 00:28:23,860
have just concluded a meeting
on Astrea Crawford attack
581
00:28:23,902 --> 00:28:28,134
Unfortunately, Mr. Stone's
myopic view of the case
582
00:28:28,173 --> 00:28:31,904
only served to dampen
any hopes I had harbored
583
00:28:31,943 --> 00:28:33,808
of a fair investigation
584
00:28:33,845 --> 00:28:35,813
into the action ofthis city's
law enforcement officers.
585
00:28:35,847 --> 00:28:39,180
Do you believe the DA
is capable of an impartial
investigation?
586
00:28:39,217 --> 00:28:42,015
I believe there is
a tacit agreement
587
00:28:42,053 --> 00:28:44,419
running through
the power structure
of this city.
588
00:28:44,456 --> 00:28:48,324
If Astrea Crawford
had been white and her
attackers black..
589
00:28:48,359 --> 00:28:50,657
Stone:
That's not the point, Adam.
I know the factsââ
590
00:28:50,695 --> 00:28:53,721
you do, he doesââ
I'm certain Eaton
knows the facts.
591
00:28:53,765 --> 00:28:57,201
But the press
and thus the public hears
what he wants them to hear.
592
00:28:57,235 --> 00:28:58,566
Is he lying?
593
00:28:58,603 --> 00:29:02,130
I think
he believed her at first.
Even if he doesn't now
594
00:29:02,173 --> 00:29:04,698
it's too good an opportunity
for him to let go.
595
00:29:04,743 --> 00:29:07,644
Every move we make
rings coverâupââ
we go too slow,
596
00:29:07,679 --> 00:29:09,909
we're dragging our feet;
too fast, we're after
the girl.
597
00:29:09,948 --> 00:29:12,917
I can read a lousy hand.
Now, what do you
want to do?
598
00:29:12,951 --> 00:29:15,385
I want a grand jury impaneled.
I want to run it.
599
00:29:15,420 --> 00:29:19,413
Last shot out of the gun.
If it doesn't turn there...
600
00:29:19,457 --> 00:29:22,187
Stone:
We're dead, I know
But we're face down as it is.
601
00:29:22,227 --> 00:29:24,092
And it could get worse
before it gets better.
602
00:29:24,129 --> 00:29:27,292
The one hope is the boyfriend.
If he admits she was with himââ
603
00:29:27,332 --> 00:29:29,391
I'll take a shot.
604
00:29:33,738 --> 00:29:36,639
That's different
than what you had told
your youth officer.
605
00:29:36,674 --> 00:29:40,041
Plus, you told
the police you had seen her
a few days previous.
606
00:29:40,078 --> 00:29:42,546
Maybe.
Which is it?
607
00:29:44,149 --> 00:29:46,982
I didn't see her
any of the three days
before I got busted.
608
00:29:47,018 --> 00:29:49,077
We have hair
and fiber samples
609
00:29:49,120 --> 00:29:51,213
from the crack house
that say otherwise, Jordan.
610
00:29:51,256 --> 00:29:53,486
I don't care.
I didn't see her.
611
00:29:53,525 --> 00:29:56,323
Has anyone spoken to you
about the three days?
612
00:29:56,361 --> 00:29:59,091
Some.
Eaton?
613
00:29:59,130 --> 00:30:02,657
My nephew
does not lie,
Mr. Robinette.
614
00:30:02,700 --> 00:30:04,930
And certainly
not to a man
615
00:30:04,969 --> 00:30:07,301
as esteemed
as Mr. Eaton.
616
00:30:07,338 --> 00:30:10,307
Thank you, ma'am.
That's very helpful.
617
00:30:10,341 --> 00:30:12,809
If he told
Mr. Eaton that's
what happened,
618
00:30:12,844 --> 00:30:14,937
then that's
what happened.
619
00:30:16,881 --> 00:30:19,816
I'll be in touch
with Jordan ifl need him
for the grand jury.
620
00:30:19,851 --> 00:30:23,548
I'm assuming
you'd be willing to state
the same under oath?
621
00:30:23,588 --> 00:30:26,853
You got that right.
Watch your mouth,
young man.
622
00:30:26,891 --> 00:30:29,553
Are you going
to subpoena him?
No, he'd lie.
623
00:30:29,594 --> 00:30:31,027
We'd prove
he perjured himself,
624
00:30:31,062 --> 00:30:32,620
he'd lose
his work program.
What for?
625
00:30:32,664 --> 00:30:35,098
Oh, the faint rumblings
of a heart in there.
626
00:30:35,133 --> 00:30:37,033
No, that's a brain
627
00:30:37,068 --> 00:30:39,093
and it's decided
to subpoena Ms. Crawford.
628
00:30:39,137 --> 00:30:41,105
Whewl
Talk about backlash.
629
00:30:41,139 --> 00:30:44,768
What choice have we got?
If we don't let her testify,
they'll scream "coverâup."
630
00:30:44,809 --> 00:30:46,902
If we do,
what do you think
Eaton will scream?
631
00:30:46,945 --> 00:30:48,913
I don't know.
We'll find out.
632
00:30:48,947 --> 00:30:50,938
I think I'll
subpoena him too.
633
00:30:54,752 --> 00:30:57,653
Stone:
And in your expert opinion,
Mrs. I/IďŹlkes,
634
00:30:57,689 --> 00:31:01,056
would you say there are
characteristics associated
635
00:31:01,092 --> 00:31:04,789
with false allegations
of sexual assault
in the Crawford case?
636
00:31:04,829 --> 00:31:09,198
There are certain
characteristics present
in this case
637
00:31:09,234 --> 00:31:11,896
that tend to appear
more often in false
allegations
638
00:31:11,936 --> 00:31:14,769
than in the case
of true sexual assault.
639
00:31:14,806 --> 00:31:18,970
In the case, specifically,
are there physical
characteristics
640
00:31:19,010 --> 00:31:22,468
that match
established guidelines
for false allegations?
641
00:31:22,513 --> 00:31:25,448
Yes, there were.
Would you
list them, please?
642
00:31:25,483 --> 00:31:27,815
Mrs. Crawford's
damage to her clothing
643
00:31:27,852 --> 00:31:30,514
was inconsistent with that
of her injuries.
644
00:31:30,555 --> 00:31:32,853
Writing on the body
is also very common
645
00:31:32,891 --> 00:31:36,827
in false allegations
as is selfâmutilation.
646
00:31:36,861 --> 00:31:39,659
And probably,
most important of all,
647
00:31:39,697 --> 00:31:43,793
the expected laboratory
findings of rape are absent.
648
00:31:43,835 --> 00:31:45,826
Eaton:
The District Attorney
ofďŹce has,
649
00:31:45,870 --> 00:31:47,701
in an attempt
to fracture our resolve,
650
00:31:47,739 --> 00:31:50,867
issued subpoenas
for myself and my clients,
651
00:31:50,909 --> 00:31:53,139
Astrea Crawford
and her mother.
652
00:31:53,177 --> 00:31:56,203
I've agreed
to testify to show
653
00:31:56,247 --> 00:31:57,942
the vicious
indifference
654
00:31:57,982 --> 00:31:59,677
within this city's
lilyâwhite power structure
655
00:31:59,717 --> 00:32:04,450
as young Astrea's
cries forjustice
go unheeded.
656
00:32:04,489 --> 00:32:07,617
( crowd cheers )
657
00:32:07,659 --> 00:32:11,117
So upon hearing
of Mrs. Crawford's
alleged rape in the papers
658
00:32:11,162 --> 00:32:14,598
you contacted her family
with an offer of your services?
659
00:32:14,632 --> 00:32:17,123
My help
to a constituent,
Mr. Stone.
660
00:32:17,168 --> 00:32:18,362
I supply
no "services."
661
00:32:18,403 --> 00:32:21,964
This help
was in the form
of a suggestion
662
00:32:22,006 --> 00:32:23,803
to Ms. Crawford
and her family
663
00:32:23,841 --> 00:32:27,004
that she not cooperate
with the dulyâconstituted
664
00:32:27,045 --> 00:32:28,842
authorities in this
investigation?
665
00:32:28,880 --> 00:32:31,314
I embraced the family's
hope forjustice.
666
00:32:31,349 --> 00:32:35,979
Only in subsequently
bonding together as a whole,
667
00:32:36,020 --> 00:32:39,979
our desires forjustice
for Astrea the individual
668
00:32:40,024 --> 00:32:44,051
were only surpassed
by those issues lying
on the larger plane.
669
00:32:44,095 --> 00:32:45,995
Which are?
670
00:32:46,030 --> 00:32:48,794
Four centuries
of oppression, Mr. Stone.
671
00:32:50,535 --> 00:32:53,003
We became frontâline
activists in the struggle
672
00:32:53,037 --> 00:32:54,561
to uproot a system
of injustice
673
00:32:54,605 --> 00:32:56,095
through this
particular case.
674
00:32:58,242 --> 00:33:00,642
Congressman, the purpose
ofthis grand jury
675
00:33:00,678 --> 00:33:02,976
is to determine whether
a particular crime
676
00:33:03,014 --> 00:33:05,244
has been committed,
and if so,
677
00:33:05,283 --> 00:33:07,274
was there an attempt
to bury it,
678
00:33:07,318 --> 00:33:10,412
as has been charged
in various public forums
679
00:33:10,455 --> 00:33:11,979
by yourself.
680
00:33:12,023 --> 00:33:14,116
Therein lies,
the problem, Mr. Stone.
681
00:33:14,158 --> 00:33:17,491
For the real agenda here
should be
682
00:33:17,528 --> 00:33:18,927
the American system
ofjustice
683
00:33:18,963 --> 00:33:22,057
and its treatment
of black Americans
versus that of whites.
684
00:33:22,100 --> 00:33:25,365
For better or for worse,
it's the only system
we've got.
685
00:33:25,403 --> 00:33:26,995
Circumventing it, sir,
686
00:33:27,038 --> 00:33:28,938
no matter how noble
the perceived ends,
687
00:33:28,973 --> 00:33:31,305
cannot bejustified.
And if you persist
688
00:33:31,342 --> 00:33:34,869
in preventing Ms. Crawford
and her family
689
00:33:34,912 --> 00:33:37,380
from testifying
before this jury,
690
00:33:37,415 --> 00:33:39,246
I have no other
alternative, sir,
691
00:33:39,283 --> 00:33:42,275
but go to warrant
for their arrest.
692
00:33:42,320 --> 00:33:46,984
We must have
the truth, not only
for the black community
693
00:33:47,025 --> 00:33:49,220
but for every one
of the citizens of this city.
694
00:33:49,260 --> 00:33:52,058
You leave me
no other option.
695
00:33:52,096 --> 00:33:55,361
Then you'll have
to excuse me, Mr. Stone.
696
00:34:00,705 --> 00:34:03,003
I can find
no justifiable reason
697
00:34:03,041 --> 00:34:06,135
to be party to this
mockery oftruth and equality.
698
00:34:13,718 --> 00:34:16,687
Robinette:
Your Honor, as the evidence
of this hearing establishes,
699
00:34:16,721 --> 00:34:19,087
the defendants were served
subpoenas 10 days previous
700
00:34:19,123 --> 00:34:22,456
to the notice date
of grand jury appearances.
701
00:34:22,493 --> 00:34:24,654
They have,
as the evidence shows,
702
00:34:24,695 --> 00:34:27,289
willfully
and deliberately
failed to appear.
703
00:34:27,331 --> 00:34:30,164
The People
request immediate
determination of contempt
704
00:34:30,201 --> 00:34:32,169
and ask the Court
to impose
705
00:34:32,203 --> 00:34:34,330
the maximum sentence
provided by law.
706
00:34:34,372 --> 00:34:36,670
Mr. Gaines?
707
00:34:38,409 --> 00:34:42,436
The defendants' stated position
has been clear for some time,
Your Honor.
708
00:34:42,480 --> 00:34:44,505
The DA's issuing
of said subpoenas
709
00:34:44,549 --> 00:34:46,380
was a clear attempt
to break the resolve
710
00:34:46,417 --> 00:34:48,248
of this girl's stance
on racial justice.
711
00:34:48,286 --> 00:34:49,913
Spare me the diatribe,
Counselor,
712
00:34:49,954 --> 00:34:51,888
this is a hearing,
not a trial.
713
00:34:51,923 --> 00:34:54,619
While there is
unfortunately much truth
714
00:34:54,659 --> 00:34:56,251
in the stated position
715
00:34:56,294 --> 00:34:59,627
that minorities in this city
often fall onto uneven terrain
716
00:34:59,664 --> 00:35:01,291
within the Court system,
717
00:35:01,332 --> 00:35:03,357
that is not reason
enough for your clients
718
00:35:03,401 --> 00:35:06,370
to ignore
the lawful mandates
of this Court.
719
00:35:06,404 --> 00:35:09,032
Is it your intention
720
00:35:09,073 --> 00:35:11,439
to show any
pertinent information
721
00:35:11,476 --> 00:35:13,501
in the defense
of this contempt citation?
722
00:35:13,544 --> 00:35:15,910
Apparently, none that
would do any good,
Your Honor,
723
00:35:15,947 --> 00:35:17,778
as it is becoming
readily apparent
724
00:35:17,815 --> 00:35:19,373
the Court's mind
is already made up.
725
00:35:19,417 --> 00:35:23,410
Tread lightly, Mr. Gaines.
I'm becoming annoyed.
726
00:35:23,454 --> 00:35:27,823
Given the legal documents
submitted by the People
727
00:35:27,859 --> 00:35:31,761
and the lack of any
substantive defense,
728
00:35:31,796 --> 00:35:36,495
this Court finds
both defendants guilty
of contempt.
729
00:35:36,534 --> 00:35:39,002
You are hereby
sentenced as followed:
730
00:35:39,036 --> 00:35:41,163
Mrs. Thelma Crawford,
731
00:35:41,205 --> 00:35:45,369
$250 fine
along with 30 days'
incarceration;
732
00:35:45,409 --> 00:35:46,967
Miss Astrea Crawford,
733
00:35:47,011 --> 00:35:49,844
30 days in a suitable
juvenile facility.
734
00:35:49,881 --> 00:35:52,042
At the end
of that time,
735
00:35:52,083 --> 00:35:54,210
or before,
if they wish to cooperate
736
00:35:54,252 --> 00:35:55,981
I will see them
in this courtroom.
737
00:35:56,020 --> 00:35:58,250
Your Honor, request
incarceration be delayed
738
00:35:58,289 --> 00:36:00,723
until immediately after
the next grand jury date
739
00:36:00,758 --> 00:36:04,524
so that defendants can reflect
upon the Court's decision.
740
00:36:04,562 --> 00:36:06,553
So ordered.
741
00:36:08,699 --> 00:36:10,360
Yes, Mr. Gaines?
742
00:36:10,401 --> 00:36:13,893
Congressman Eaton would like
to make a brief statement.
743
00:36:13,938 --> 00:36:15,963
All due respect
to Congressman Eaton,
744
00:36:16,007 --> 00:36:18,407
he has no business
in this Court, Mr. Gaines.
745
00:36:18,442 --> 00:36:22,208
Justice silenced
is justice denied,
Your Honor.
746
00:36:22,246 --> 00:36:26,114
Congressman Eaton,
go ahead, sir.
747
00:36:30,121 --> 00:36:32,589
Your Honor, for the record
I'd like to state
748
00:36:32,623 --> 00:36:34,454
an overwhelming sense
of disappointment
749
00:36:34,492 --> 00:36:36,221
at the Court's handling
of this affair.
750
00:36:36,260 --> 00:36:38,820
Excuse meââ
sir.
751
00:36:40,164 --> 00:36:43,622
Yours and Mr. Gaines'
clear implication
752
00:36:43,668 --> 00:36:46,660
is that I have been
sitting here oppressing
black Americans,
753
00:36:46,704 --> 00:36:48,262
and I will not
have it.
754
00:36:48,306 --> 00:36:50,433
And while I'm
on the subject,
755
00:36:50,474 --> 00:36:53,136
this Court would like
to advise the defendantsââ
756
00:36:54,512 --> 00:36:57,310
in my legal opinion
you have had reprehensible
757
00:36:57,348 --> 00:36:59,475
and irresponsible
advice
758
00:36:59,517 --> 00:37:01,849
from their retained
counsel.
759
00:37:01,886 --> 00:37:05,344
I hope you take
what time has been granted
760
00:37:05,389 --> 00:37:07,550
to fully examine
the situation
761
00:37:07,592 --> 00:37:10,026
and purge
the contempt citation.
762
00:37:10,061 --> 00:37:12,222
This Court
does not relish
763
00:37:12,263 --> 00:37:14,197
having you spend
one hour in jail,
764
00:37:14,232 --> 00:37:16,496
for what it
perceives to be
765
00:37:16,534 --> 00:37:18,866
the selfâserving actions
of others.
766
00:37:18,903 --> 00:37:22,066
If Eaton convinces
the girl and her mother
to be martyrs
767
00:37:22,106 --> 00:37:24,700
and take
the 30 days,
768
00:37:24,742 --> 00:37:26,937
we're dead
in the water.
769
00:37:28,479 --> 00:37:31,676
Now suppose
that Angela I/IďŹlkes'
theon/ is right,
770
00:37:31,716 --> 00:37:35,777
that this thing started
as a child's fib.
771
00:37:35,820 --> 00:37:39,449
You think you could prove
that Eaton took the ball,
772
00:37:39,490 --> 00:37:40,957
orchestrated it
for the media,
773
00:37:40,992 --> 00:37:42,983
and keep the mother
and the girl out of it?
774
00:37:44,829 --> 00:37:46,729
I don't think
that'II fly.
775
00:37:46,764 --> 00:37:50,291
It'd be like a witch hunt.
We'rejumping around, looking
for a villain.
776
00:37:50,334 --> 00:37:53,098
And I actually think Eaton
might still believe the girl.
777
00:37:54,672 --> 00:37:57,903
We may have
one more shot.
778
00:37:57,942 --> 00:37:59,432
Gimme the day.
779
00:37:59,477 --> 00:38:02,571
Warren: Why me?
Robinette:
He'll see you.
780
00:38:02,613 --> 00:38:04,945
Just your presence
will defuse the situation.
781
00:38:04,982 --> 00:38:06,882
I'll do all
the talking.
782
00:38:06,917 --> 00:38:10,011
Paul, Ijust knowthe man
from the "rubber chicken"
circuit.
783
00:38:10,054 --> 00:38:12,648
Look, I know I can
cut this short.
784
00:38:12,690 --> 00:38:14,954
He's got to be feeling
pressure at this point.
785
00:38:14,992 --> 00:38:17,426
If I provide him
with a graceful exit
he might take it.
786
00:38:17,461 --> 00:38:19,258
Or he eats you
for lunchââ
787
00:38:19,297 --> 00:38:20,924
holds you up
to the press
788
00:38:20,965 --> 00:38:23,490
as a "Tom" messenger,
sent by the white
establishment.
789
00:38:23,534 --> 00:38:25,297
So what?
So what, we sit back
790
00:38:25,336 --> 00:38:27,201
and watch him
tear the city in half?
791
00:38:27,238 --> 00:38:29,934
He's already set back
race relations 30 years.
792
00:38:29,974 --> 00:38:32,568
I work with these people.
I know howthey feel.
793
00:38:32,610 --> 00:38:33,975
There is no coverâup.
794
00:38:34,011 --> 00:38:37,606
You know me.
You think I'd be
a party to it?
795
00:38:38,816 --> 00:38:40,613
This is
unbelievable.
796
00:38:40,651 --> 00:38:43,245
I become a lawyer,
turn down Wall Street,
797
00:38:43,287 --> 00:38:45,118
go into the one area
I think I can help,
798
00:38:45,156 --> 00:38:48,614
and everybody thinks
I'm a damned "Oreo."
Excuse me, Father.
799
00:38:48,659 --> 00:38:51,321
Maybe there's another way.
Have you talked to the mother?
800
00:38:51,362 --> 00:38:53,853
Eaton's got his hand
in her back.
801
00:38:53,898 --> 00:38:55,832
She's talking,
but he's pulling
the strings.
802
00:38:55,866 --> 00:38:57,527
The Cravvfords
are parishioners.
803
00:38:57,568 --> 00:38:59,399
If I can get her
to talk to you alone...?
804
00:38:59,437 --> 00:39:01,496
I'll take a run
at her.
805
00:39:01,539 --> 00:39:03,837
Mrs. Crawford:
Mr. Robinette?
806
00:39:12,283 --> 00:39:14,012
You okay?
807
00:39:14,051 --> 00:39:15,609
Yeah.
808
00:39:15,653 --> 00:39:18,486
Father Warren said
you wanted to talk to me.
809
00:39:20,024 --> 00:39:21,821
How about we go
get some coffee?
810
00:39:22,960 --> 00:39:25,485
I can't stay long.
811
00:39:25,529 --> 00:39:27,895
This thing has gotten...
812
00:39:28,899 --> 00:39:30,924
I don't know
what to do.
813
00:39:30,968 --> 00:39:33,095
It's gone too far.
814
00:39:33,137 --> 00:39:36,106
Did it happen?
815
00:39:36,140 --> 00:39:38,131
Did any of it happen?
816
00:39:39,710 --> 00:39:41,837
She's pregnant.
817
00:39:41,879 --> 00:39:44,746
The Hill boy?
818
00:39:46,984 --> 00:39:48,952
But we're Catholic.
819
00:39:48,986 --> 00:39:51,454
She was terrified.
820
00:39:51,489 --> 00:39:55,482
Her daddy, he has
a terrible temper.
821
00:39:55,526 --> 00:39:58,017
She wanted to have
an abortion.
822
00:39:58,062 --> 00:40:01,930
She thought by saying
that white cops raped her thatââ
823
00:40:01,966 --> 00:40:04,958
He'd let her have it.
824
00:40:10,274 --> 00:40:12,105
This is a part of it?
825
00:40:13,310 --> 00:40:15,244
I had to tell him
the truth.
826
00:40:20,284 --> 00:40:21,683
Robinette:
That's not the point.
827
00:40:21,719 --> 00:40:24,552
You give me the view
from where you sit,
"Mr. Jive DA,"
828
00:40:24,588 --> 00:40:26,681
and tell me I got
no reason to be up
behind this?
829
00:40:26,724 --> 00:40:29,158
I'm saying there's
no reason to go on with it,
830
00:40:29,193 --> 00:40:31,093
and I'm giving you
an out.
831
00:40:31,128 --> 00:40:33,426
The city will drop
the cross charges
832
00:40:33,464 --> 00:40:35,728
and the gag order
will work both ways.
833
00:40:35,766 --> 00:40:37,825
No quotes,
no fingerpointing
from anybody,
834
00:40:37,868 --> 00:40:39,358
including us.
835
00:40:39,403 --> 00:40:41,894
And it'll just disappear
from the papers?
836
00:40:41,939 --> 00:40:43,566
No fuel, no fire,
Mr. Crawford.
837
00:40:43,607 --> 00:40:45,700
The press will print
other people's speculations,
838
00:40:45,743 --> 00:40:47,574
but they're not going
to print their own.
839
00:40:47,611 --> 00:40:49,772
Look, I don't know
what you need me for.
840
00:40:49,814 --> 00:40:51,213
She's already
agreed to it.
841
00:40:51,248 --> 00:40:54,240
It won't work unless
everyone's in agreement.
And Eaton?
842
00:40:54,285 --> 00:40:56,048
That'll be my problem.
843
00:40:58,589 --> 00:41:00,318
Fine.
844
00:41:05,396 --> 00:41:08,661
I'm sending
a social worker by.
845
00:41:08,699 --> 00:41:11,361
Mr. Crawford:
Look, we don't need
any more help from you.
846
00:41:18,242 --> 00:41:20,642
That's not an option,
Lester.
847
00:41:21,679 --> 00:41:23,374
You beat her again,
848
00:41:23,414 --> 00:41:26,144
I'll come at you
every way I know how.
849
00:41:58,549 --> 00:42:01,450
If what you're telling me
is true,
850
00:42:01,485 --> 00:42:04,010
you may be the most
simplehearted,
851
00:42:04,054 --> 00:42:06,522
"downâtheâriver" nigger
ever to wear a tie.
852
00:42:06,557 --> 00:42:08,320
You want to call them?
853
00:42:08,359 --> 00:42:11,385
They won't pick up
the phone.
854
00:42:14,498 --> 00:42:17,831
Don't you have any sense
of connection to your people?
855
00:42:17,868 --> 00:42:19,893
Cut the crap,
Congressman,
856
00:42:19,937 --> 00:42:21,802
there are
no cameras here.
857
00:42:21,839 --> 00:42:23,739
The thing was a hoax.
858
00:42:23,774 --> 00:42:26,106
It's over.
Let it go.
859
00:42:26,143 --> 00:42:28,373
A hoax?
860
00:42:30,014 --> 00:42:33,108
You know that now,
861
00:42:33,150 --> 00:42:35,448
I know that now..
862
00:42:40,357 --> 00:42:42,848
What do you think the point
of all this madness was?
863
00:42:42,893 --> 00:42:46,021
Besides the obviously
selfâserving aspects?
864
00:42:46,063 --> 00:42:48,429
How long do you think
it will be again
865
00:42:48,465 --> 00:42:50,933
before our
entire society
866
00:42:50,968 --> 00:42:54,404
is focused on an issue
of racial equality?
867
00:42:54,438 --> 00:42:57,737
Ends justifying
the means?
868
00:42:57,775 --> 00:42:59,174
You look me in the eye
869
00:42:59,209 --> 00:43:01,268
and you tell me
this system isjustââ
870
00:43:01,312 --> 00:43:03,507
this system is equal.
871
00:43:03,547 --> 00:43:06,072
At times,
the system stinks, Eaton.
872
00:43:06,116 --> 00:43:08,209
I knowthat as well
as you do.
873
00:43:08,252 --> 00:43:10,277
But don't
for one damn minute
874
00:43:10,321 --> 00:43:12,619
tell me that your
selfâaggrandizing polarization
875
00:43:12,656 --> 00:43:15,124
is going to solve
the problem.
876
00:43:15,159 --> 00:43:18,060
Don't tell me that tearing down
a 200âyearâold justice systemââ
877
00:43:18,095 --> 00:43:19,653
no matter how flawedââ
878
00:43:19,697 --> 00:43:22,188
is going to alter
the consciousness
of a society.
879
00:43:22,232 --> 00:43:25,395
We're past the separateâ
drinkingâfountain stage.
880
00:43:25,436 --> 00:43:27,904
We 're past
legal discrimination.
881
00:43:27,938 --> 00:43:31,101
We're at the heartsâ
andâminds stage.
882
00:43:31,141 --> 00:43:33,735
And believe me,
883
00:43:33,777 --> 00:43:35,768
there's no quick fix.
884
00:43:36,914 --> 00:43:39,314
Your intentions
885
00:43:39,350 --> 00:43:41,818
might have been good...
886
00:43:41,852 --> 00:43:44,787
but your execution
stunk.
887
00:43:44,822 --> 00:43:46,915
Another zombified soul
888
00:43:46,957 --> 00:43:49,221
casts his vote
for order
889
00:43:49,259 --> 00:43:51,989
rather than justice.
890
00:43:54,865 --> 00:43:58,824
Negative peace
over positive peace.
891
00:43:58,869 --> 00:44:01,337
Paraphrasing
Martin Luther King's thoughts
892
00:44:01,372 --> 00:44:03,135
won't lend credence
to yours.
893
00:44:03,173 --> 00:44:06,199
King walked
with the angels.
894
00:44:07,745 --> 00:44:09,542
You'd slide in slime
on your belly
895
00:44:09,580 --> 00:44:11,480
to get
what you want.
896
00:44:13,951 --> 00:44:16,943
Adam:
So, he said we're out?
897
00:44:16,987 --> 00:44:18,921
And they agreed
to what?
898
00:44:18,956 --> 00:44:21,390
Gag orders all around,
we drop the cross complaintsââ
899
00:44:21,425 --> 00:44:23,325
Drop theââ
what the hell
does that get us?
900
00:44:23,360 --> 00:44:24,793
"Get us"?
901
00:44:24,828 --> 00:44:26,921
Granted, it's
not the best deal
on the surface,
902
00:44:26,964 --> 00:44:28,829
but it's livable,
it'll work.
903
00:44:28,866 --> 00:44:30,128
It'll help the press
deflate themselves.
904
00:44:30,167 --> 00:44:32,067
Cops were named.
Records maligned.
905
00:44:32,102 --> 00:44:34,366
What, you want
no casualties?
906
00:44:34,405 --> 00:44:36,270
Six months and people
will know it was a hoax.
907
00:44:36,306 --> 00:44:38,297
It'll be
back page news.
908
00:44:42,846 --> 00:44:45,940
He'll live with it.
By morning he'll
probably love it.
909
00:44:48,018 --> 00:44:50,009
You think
I sold out?
910
00:44:51,021 --> 00:44:52,750
Does it matter
what I think?
911
00:44:52,790 --> 00:44:54,417
If it does,
I'll tell you,
912
00:44:54,458 --> 00:44:56,323
but it's something
you decide for yourself.
913
00:44:56,360 --> 00:44:58,521
You got a "shave yourself
in the morning" speech?
914
00:44:58,562 --> 00:45:00,086
Maybe.
915
00:45:00,130 --> 00:45:03,156
Do you think
of yourself as a black lawyer,
or a Iawyerwho's black?
916
00:45:03,200 --> 00:45:05,134
Depends on the context.
917
00:45:07,137 --> 00:45:09,970
You made a decision based
on something from within.
918
00:45:10,007 --> 00:45:13,067
You live with it, examine it.
It's all you got.
919
00:45:14,645 --> 00:45:17,978
You think by morning
I'll come to love it?
920
00:45:18,015 --> 00:45:20,108
No, but I don't think
you'll have any problem
921
00:45:20,150 --> 00:45:21,811
with the guy
in the mirror.
922
00:45:21,852 --> 00:45:23,945
I'll see you
tomorrow.
923
00:45:48,912 --> 00:45:51,005
