Vincent:
This is where the wealthy
and the powerful rule.
2
00:00:07,340 --> 00:00:09,676
It is her world,
3
00:00:09,759 --> 00:00:13,179
a world apart from mine.
4
00:00:13,263 --> 00:00:17,016
Her name... is Catherine.
5
00:00:19,686 --> 00:00:22,939
From the moment I saw her,
she captured my heart
6
00:00:23,022 --> 00:00:25,442
with her beauty,
7
00:00:25,525 --> 00:00:30,071
her warmth and her courage.
8
00:00:30,155 --> 00:00:32,907
I knew then, as I know now,
9
00:00:32,991 --> 00:00:35,952
she would change my life...
10
00:00:36,035 --> 00:00:38,872
Forever.
11
00:00:41,958 --> 00:00:46,588
Catherine:
He comes from a secret place,
far below the city streets,
12
00:00:46,671 --> 00:00:50,175
hiding his face from strangers,
13
00:00:50,258 --> 00:00:53,136
safe from hate and harm.
14
00:00:53,219 --> 00:00:56,556
He brought me there
to save my life.
15
00:00:56,639 --> 00:01:01,686
And now, wherever I go,
he is with me in spirit.
16
00:01:01,770 --> 00:01:05,690
For we have a bond stronger
than friendship or love.
17
00:01:05,774 --> 00:01:08,318
And although
we cannot be together,
18
00:01:08,401 --> 00:01:11,988
we will never, ever be apart.
19
00:01:42,101 --> 00:01:45,605
♪ ♪
20
00:02:14,133 --> 00:02:16,135
♪ ♪
21
00:02:42,412 --> 00:02:44,747
(Knocking)
22
00:02:52,463 --> 00:02:54,382
What is it, Catherine?
23
00:02:54,465 --> 00:02:56,509
What makes you so sad?
24
00:03:02,515 --> 00:03:06,060
Sometimes I see things...
25
00:03:06,144 --> 00:03:07,770
And I can't help but wonder
26
00:03:07,854 --> 00:03:10,398
if there's any hope
left for any of US.
27
00:03:16,029 --> 00:03:18,448
I have known
that feeling.
28
00:03:21,993 --> 00:03:24,662
A father...
29
00:03:24,746 --> 00:03:27,290
Beats his child to death.
30
00:03:30,710 --> 00:03:33,588
What does that say
about US?
31
00:03:33,671 --> 00:03:36,716
About our world and the way
we treat each other?
32
00:03:42,221 --> 00:03:44,474
Evil exists, it's real.
33
00:03:44,557 --> 00:03:47,518
We know that.
34
00:03:47,602 --> 00:03:49,854
But when it touches
little children...
35
00:03:52,273 --> 00:03:55,860
...it tells US that no one
anywhere is safe.
36
00:04:01,699 --> 00:04:03,326
We have children
living with US below
37
00:04:03,409 --> 00:04:05,662
who have suffered more
in their young years
38
00:04:05,745 --> 00:04:08,790
than anyone should be
allowed in 100 lifetimes.
39
00:04:11,125 --> 00:04:13,378
Where's the hope?
40
00:04:13,461 --> 00:04:16,464
Within you.
41
00:04:19,133 --> 00:04:20,301
Within US.
42
00:04:20,385 --> 00:04:21,344
We must not
let it die.
43
00:04:21,427 --> 00:04:23,805
We must protect it...
44
00:04:23,888 --> 00:04:26,224
For each other.
45
00:04:29,310 --> 00:04:31,354
(Car horns honking)
46
00:04:36,109 --> 00:04:38,194
She's inside
with her lawyer.
47
00:04:38,277 --> 00:04:41,114
I'll be here, but I don't
think you'll need me.
48
00:04:46,953 --> 00:04:49,247
I'm Peter rundler,
Mrs. Nolan's lawyer.
49
00:04:49,330 --> 00:04:51,374
Catherine Chandler.
50
00:04:53,459 --> 00:04:55,503
Mrs. Nolan...
51
00:04:57,088 --> 00:04:59,549
You understand the da's office
is considering
52
00:04:59,632 --> 00:05:03,386
a Grant of immunity for you
to testify against your husband.
53
00:05:03,469 --> 00:05:05,888
Before I decide whether
to recommend that course,
54
00:05:05,972 --> 00:05:07,515
I'll need to ask you
a few questions.
55
00:05:07,598 --> 00:05:09,559
My client doesn't
want to answer
any questions
56
00:05:09,642 --> 00:05:10,977
until she
has immunity.
57
00:05:11,060 --> 00:05:13,229
She doesn't want to
incriminate herself.
58
00:05:13,312 --> 00:05:14,897
Mr. Rundler, I already have
your client's
59
00:05:14,981 --> 00:05:17,233
latest statements
to the police.
60
00:05:17,316 --> 00:05:19,402
I'm only asking her
to illuminate some points
61
00:05:19,485 --> 00:05:21,237
which are likely
to be raised in court.
62
00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:24,240
There are very sensitive
issues with Mrs. Nolan.
63
00:05:24,323 --> 00:05:26,242
It was so quiet.
64
00:05:28,953 --> 00:05:33,082
That's how I knew it was bad.
65
00:05:33,166 --> 00:05:35,877
Usually, there was screaming
or yelling.
66
00:05:41,591 --> 00:05:43,384
(Sighs)
67
00:05:43,468 --> 00:05:45,386
Mrs. Nolan,
68
00:05:45,470 --> 00:05:49,223
in what condition
was Jonathan when
you found him?
69
00:05:49,307 --> 00:05:54,771
No.
70
00:05:54,854 --> 00:05:56,773
I'm sorry,
Mrs. Nolan,
71
00:05:56,856 --> 00:05:58,274
but we're
preparing a case
72
00:05:58,357 --> 00:06:00,109
for your husband's
grand jury hearing.
73
00:06:00,193 --> 00:06:02,070
We need to know
what your testimony
74
00:06:02,153 --> 00:06:03,905
will be.
75
00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:10,286
Joe:
Don't you get it?
76
00:06:10,369 --> 00:06:12,747
Prosecute her,
and we lose her testimony.
77
00:06:12,830 --> 00:06:14,749
Then all we have against Nolan
is circumstantial.
78
00:06:14,832 --> 00:06:17,335
She is an accessory
to her own child's murder.
79
00:06:17,418 --> 00:06:19,003
She should pay for that!
80
00:06:19,087 --> 00:06:21,839
Maybe. Maybe she'll be paying
for it for the rest of her life.
81
00:06:21,923 --> 00:06:23,466
(Scoffs)
That is not what I meant.
82
00:06:23,549 --> 00:06:25,343
Cathy, you're thinking
with your heart.
83
00:06:25,426 --> 00:06:26,594
So will the jury.
84
00:06:26,677 --> 00:06:28,346
Look, I am not going
to debate the ethics
85
00:06:28,429 --> 00:06:30,056
of granting
Molly Nolan immunity,
86
00:06:30,139 --> 00:06:31,766
because she is the key
to this thing.
87
00:06:31,849 --> 00:06:34,477
That's what moreno thinks,
that's what I think,
88
00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:35,978
and that's all
there is to it.
89
00:06:36,062 --> 00:06:37,438
How can you be
so reductive, Joe?
90
00:06:37,522 --> 00:06:39,023
It's not that simple.
91
00:06:39,107 --> 00:06:41,025
In a court of law,
and for our purposes,
92
00:06:41,109 --> 00:06:42,026
it is that simple.
93
00:06:42,110 --> 00:06:44,445
As simple as the fact
that you and I both know
94
00:06:44,529 --> 00:06:45,780
Richard Nolan is guilty.
95
00:06:45,863 --> 00:06:48,491
(Sighs)
96
00:06:48,574 --> 00:06:51,994
So, I'm just supposed
to put aside my feelings?
97
00:06:52,078 --> 00:06:54,497
If it interferes
with your work, absolutely.
98
00:06:56,249 --> 00:06:59,335
Tell me now-- are you going
to work with me on this or not?
99
00:06:59,418 --> 00:07:01,504
Do you want me
to get somebody else?
100
00:07:03,756 --> 00:07:05,341
I want to do this.
101
00:07:05,424 --> 00:07:06,467
I just...
102
00:07:06,551 --> 00:07:08,302
(Sighs)
103
00:07:08,386 --> 00:07:11,430
It's hard for me
to separate myself like that.
104
00:07:11,514 --> 00:07:13,683
(Sighs)
105
00:07:13,766 --> 00:07:15,810
I know.
106
00:07:35,454 --> 00:07:37,874
(Subway car chugging)
107
00:07:46,841 --> 00:07:48,885
(Subway car clanging)
108
00:07:57,518 --> 00:07:59,562
(Groans softly)
109
00:08:05,818 --> 00:08:08,154
(Groaning softly)
110
00:08:13,659 --> 00:08:14,869
Man:
Did the grand
jury indict?
111
00:08:14,952 --> 00:08:16,078
Is the case
going to trial?
112
00:08:16,162 --> 00:08:17,580
Man #2:
Excuse me, sir.
Yes, it is.
113
00:08:17,663 --> 00:08:19,749
Is it true Mrs. Nolan lied
to the police several times
114
00:08:19,832 --> 00:08:20,791
before blaming
her husband?
115
00:08:20,875 --> 00:08:22,585
I'm afraid I can't comment
on substantive details
116
00:08:22,668 --> 00:08:23,753
of the prosecution,
gentlemen.
117
00:08:23,836 --> 00:08:25,087
Why was Nolan the
only one accused?
118
00:08:25,171 --> 00:08:26,297
What about
his wife?
119
00:08:26,380 --> 00:08:28,174
Come on, fellas,
you know how it works.
120
00:08:28,257 --> 00:08:29,258
All I can tell you is
121
00:08:29,342 --> 00:08:30,384
the grand jury found
probable cause
122
00:08:30,468 --> 00:08:33,262
to believe a felony
was committed by the defendant.
123
00:08:33,346 --> 00:08:35,890
Richard Nolan will be tried
by a jury of his peers.
124
00:08:35,973 --> 00:08:38,100
Isn't this just
a political ploy
125
00:08:38,184 --> 00:08:40,603
by the d.A., grabbing
after headlines
126
00:08:40,686 --> 00:08:42,438
by going after a
wall street celebrity?
127
00:08:42,521 --> 00:08:44,440
The district attorney works
for the people.
128
00:08:44,524 --> 00:08:46,317
You, me, and everyone else
in this city.
129
00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:48,277
He believes Richard Nolan
committed a crime
130
00:08:48,361 --> 00:08:49,320
against the people.
131
00:08:49,403 --> 00:08:52,448
If the man is guilty,
we intend to make him pay.
132
00:08:52,531 --> 00:08:53,366
That's our job.
133
00:08:53,449 --> 00:08:55,284
What about the culpability
of his wife?
134
00:08:55,368 --> 00:08:57,286
What about
his alibi...?
135
00:08:57,370 --> 00:08:59,455
(Sighs)
Wow.
136
00:08:59,538 --> 00:09:00,873
Do I know you?
137
00:09:00,957 --> 00:09:02,083
I don't know.
138
00:09:02,166 --> 00:09:03,167
(Both laughing)
139
00:09:03,251 --> 00:09:05,336
Joe:
So what do you think
about them letting cameras
140
00:09:05,419 --> 00:09:07,421
into the courtroom?
141
00:09:07,505 --> 00:09:09,382
The truth?
142
00:09:10,383 --> 00:09:11,801
Yeah.
143
00:09:11,884 --> 00:09:13,928
I think it's intrusive,
voyeuristic,
144
00:09:14,011 --> 00:09:15,429
and completely unnecessary.
145
00:09:15,513 --> 00:09:16,973
I'm sorry you feel that way.
146
00:09:17,056 --> 00:09:18,808
Can I bother you two
a minute?
147
00:09:18,891 --> 00:09:20,309
Sure, boss.
Come on in.
148
00:09:20,393 --> 00:09:22,103
Why don't you have
a seat.
149
00:09:22,186 --> 00:09:23,604
No. I'll just
be a minute.
150
00:09:23,688 --> 00:09:25,731
By the way, you did a great job
with the grand jury.
151
00:09:25,815 --> 00:09:27,108
Thanks.
152
00:09:27,191 --> 00:09:29,443
Uh, I just got word that, uh,
153
00:09:29,527 --> 00:09:31,320
Virginia sheets
is defending Nolan.
154
00:09:31,404 --> 00:09:33,656
From boggs and MacMillan?
155
00:09:33,739 --> 00:09:35,324
Who's Virginia sheets?
156
00:09:35,408 --> 00:09:37,618
One of MacMillan's
pit bull protégés.
157
00:09:37,702 --> 00:09:40,621
She's out of Yale,
an incredible string of wins.
158
00:09:40,705 --> 00:09:42,498
Oh.
159
00:09:42,581 --> 00:09:44,458
Yeah, between sheets
and this whole media thing,
160
00:09:44,542 --> 00:09:46,836
this case is becoming
very emotional.
161
00:09:46,919 --> 00:09:49,297
(Sighs)
162
00:09:49,380 --> 00:09:50,631
This was a tough call for me.
163
00:09:50,715 --> 00:09:52,633
Really a tough
one, but, uh,
164
00:09:52,717 --> 00:09:56,679
I have decided I want Catherine
to head up the prosecution.
165
00:09:56,762 --> 00:09:58,347
What?!
166
00:09:58,431 --> 00:09:59,473
Sorry, Joe.
167
00:09:59,557 --> 00:10:02,435
Sir, i-I'm very flattered,
168
00:10:02,518 --> 00:10:05,438
but... do you think
that's such a good idea?
169
00:10:05,521 --> 00:10:08,482
I mean, Joe's has all
the trial experience...
170
00:10:08,566 --> 00:10:09,859
I know that.
171
00:10:09,942 --> 00:10:11,652
He's been after me for months
to give you more.
172
00:10:11,736 --> 00:10:14,071
Look, you're
going to have
173
00:10:14,155 --> 00:10:15,364
to trust me on this one.
174
00:10:15,448 --> 00:10:16,365
I've been in this game longer
175
00:10:16,449 --> 00:10:17,992
than both of you.
176
00:10:18,075 --> 00:10:19,535
It doesn't hurt matters at all
177
00:10:19,618 --> 00:10:22,163
that the people still identify
with Catherine Chandler.
178
00:10:22,246 --> 00:10:24,415
Because I was a victim?
179
00:10:24,498 --> 00:10:26,250
Well, maybe you don't like
to see that exploited,
180
00:10:26,334 --> 00:10:27,835
but that is strong stuff
to a jury,
181
00:10:27,918 --> 00:10:29,712
and it may be
the one advantage we need
182
00:10:29,795 --> 00:10:31,589
if we really want
to put this guy away.
183
00:10:33,507 --> 00:10:36,594
Which is the bottom line.
184
00:10:37,511 --> 00:10:40,014
Anyway, we got to speak.
185
00:10:45,644 --> 00:10:47,521
Joe, i'm...
186
00:10:47,605 --> 00:10:50,358
(Sighs)
187
00:10:50,441 --> 00:10:51,233
I'm really sorry.
188
00:10:51,317 --> 00:10:52,943
I know how much
you wanted this case.
189
00:10:53,027 --> 00:10:55,071
Hey, come on, Radcliffe.
190
00:10:55,154 --> 00:10:58,240
I'm a team player.
191
00:10:58,324 --> 00:11:01,202
But I got to tell you,
I think moreno's logic stinks.
192
00:11:01,285 --> 00:11:03,079
So do I.
I'm not blaming you.
193
00:11:03,162 --> 00:11:05,498
I'm just wondering what the hell
I've been doing around here
194
00:11:05,581 --> 00:11:06,582
for the past
seven years.
195
00:11:06,665 --> 00:11:09,377
Joe!
196
00:11:15,341 --> 00:11:17,718
(Indistinct, overlapping voices)
197
00:11:20,221 --> 00:11:22,431
Child's voice:
Please, please.
198
00:11:22,515 --> 00:11:24,433
Daddy?!
199
00:11:24,517 --> 00:11:26,727
(Distant crying)
200
00:11:26,811 --> 00:11:30,272
Child's voice:
Help me.
201
00:11:30,356 --> 00:11:33,692
(Child crying)
202
00:11:38,864 --> 00:11:42,493
(Child crying)
203
00:11:42,576 --> 00:11:45,287
Child's voice:
Help me.
204
00:11:45,371 --> 00:11:46,705
Pascal:
Vincent?
205
00:11:46,789 --> 00:11:49,333
Here.
206
00:11:57,633 --> 00:11:59,343
What is it?
207
00:11:59,427 --> 00:12:01,470
Can't you hear it?
A child crying.
208
00:12:01,554 --> 00:12:03,597
Listen.
209
00:12:09,228 --> 00:12:11,981
I must find this child.
210
00:12:12,064 --> 00:12:14,150
I'm sorry, Vincent.
211
00:12:14,233 --> 00:12:16,735
No one knows where
these voices come from.
212
00:12:18,737 --> 00:12:23,701
Where are you?!
213
00:12:51,061 --> 00:12:53,063
(Paper crinkling)
214
00:12:57,485 --> 00:12:59,570
(Clears throat)
215
00:12:59,653 --> 00:13:00,779
By his own admission,
216
00:13:00,863 --> 00:13:04,492
we know that Richard Nolan has,
on a number of occasions,
217
00:13:04,575 --> 00:13:07,036
physically abused
his wife, Molly.
218
00:13:07,119 --> 00:13:11,081
Ladies and gentlemen,
the state will show
219
00:13:11,165 --> 00:13:14,668
that Mr. Nolan also abused
his son Jonathan.
220
00:13:14,752 --> 00:13:16,837
On February the 6th,
221
00:13:16,921 --> 00:13:21,383
Richard Nolan carried
his pattern of abuse too far.
222
00:13:21,467 --> 00:13:25,262
On that night, he beat
his five-year-old son Jonathan
223
00:13:25,346 --> 00:13:27,890
to death.
224
00:13:34,647 --> 00:13:38,567
What makes Mr. Nolan's crime
so reprehensible
225
00:13:38,651 --> 00:13:42,404
is that it was not just
a single act of violence
226
00:13:42,488 --> 00:13:44,949
but rather a sequence of acts,
227
00:13:45,032 --> 00:13:46,742
all of which display
228
00:13:46,825 --> 00:13:49,912
a cold and complete disregard
for human life.
229
00:13:49,995 --> 00:13:52,414
The sequence began
230
00:13:52,498 --> 00:13:55,543
when Mr. Nolan
savagely beat his son
231
00:13:55,626 --> 00:14:00,381
for interrupting
a telephone conversation.
232
00:14:00,464 --> 00:14:02,383
The coroner will testify
233
00:14:02,466 --> 00:14:04,885
that just one
of the many blows
234
00:14:04,969 --> 00:14:09,098
was powerful enough
to snap the child's neck.
235
00:14:09,181 --> 00:14:12,560
Mr. Nolan then ordered his wife
236
00:14:12,643 --> 00:14:16,272
to call for help only after
he'd left the apartment
237
00:14:16,355 --> 00:14:18,315
to establish an alibi.
238
00:14:18,399 --> 00:14:21,277
She was expected to lie,
239
00:14:21,360 --> 00:14:24,655
to claim that
the child had fallen.
240
00:14:24,738 --> 00:14:27,283
But when the police arrived,
241
00:14:27,366 --> 00:14:31,287
Molly Nolan was so distraught
over the death of her son
242
00:14:31,370 --> 00:14:34,957
that she couldn't
keep the story straight.
243
00:14:35,040 --> 00:14:37,710
And when the police
became suspicious,
244
00:14:37,793 --> 00:14:41,005
Mr. Nolan had no choice
245
00:14:41,088 --> 00:14:44,425
but to blame his wife.
246
00:14:44,508 --> 00:14:49,972
Mr. Nolan expects you
to set him free.
247
00:14:50,055 --> 00:14:52,349
He expects you
to recognize him as a man
248
00:14:52,433 --> 00:14:55,311
of prominence
and respectability,
249
00:14:55,394 --> 00:14:58,439
a man who could never
commit a crime like this.
250
00:15:00,566 --> 00:15:03,694
Ladies and gentlemen,
the state will show
251
00:15:03,777 --> 00:15:06,280
that on February the 6th,
252
00:15:06,363 --> 00:15:09,783
Mr. Nolan brutally beat
his five-year-old son to death
253
00:15:09,867 --> 00:15:13,495
then coerced his wife
into lying to the police.
254
00:15:13,579 --> 00:15:18,167
And then, Mr. Nolan
met his daughter, Amy
255
00:15:18,250 --> 00:15:20,461
for a pleasant dinner.
256
00:15:22,921 --> 00:15:24,965
Phillips:
The great irony in this trial
257
00:15:25,049 --> 00:15:28,218
is that my client arrives
here today after having spent
258
00:15:28,302 --> 00:15:29,887
the last five years of his life
259
00:15:29,970 --> 00:15:34,016
helping his desperately
sick wife, Molly.
260
00:15:34,099 --> 00:15:36,727
Mrs. Nolan is a highly
unstable woman
261
00:15:36,810 --> 00:15:38,646
and an admitted alcoholic.
262
00:15:38,729 --> 00:15:42,524
Now... if there were any sense
263
00:15:42,608 --> 00:15:44,318
in these proceedings,
264
00:15:44,401 --> 00:15:47,655
in my opinion, we wouldn't be
trying Richard Nolan
265
00:15:47,738 --> 00:15:50,074
at all for this crime.
266
00:15:50,157 --> 00:15:53,369
But since Richard Nolan is the
one on trial, we must consider
267
00:15:53,452 --> 00:15:56,038
the merits of the prosecution's
case against him.
268
00:15:56,121 --> 00:15:59,667
And our defense is very simple.
269
00:15:59,750 --> 00:16:02,211
Mr. Nolan cannot have
committed this crime,
270
00:16:02,294 --> 00:16:05,673
because he was not there
when it happened.
271
00:16:05,756 --> 00:16:08,342
He was with his teenage daughter
272
00:16:08,425 --> 00:16:10,678
from a previous marriage,
Amy Nolan,
273
00:16:10,761 --> 00:16:13,013
as she will testify.
274
00:16:13,097 --> 00:16:14,765
Look at the facts.
275
00:16:14,848 --> 00:16:18,560
And the facts will indicate...
276
00:16:18,644 --> 00:16:20,062
Mr. Nolan
277
00:16:20,145 --> 00:16:22,189
is an innocent man.
278
00:16:24,191 --> 00:16:26,402
Anchor (on TV):
Now we join our
live at 5:00 news team
279
00:16:26,485 --> 00:16:28,320
with the latest
on the Nolan case.
280
00:16:28,404 --> 00:16:30,072
Reporter:
So how do you think Mr. Nolan
281
00:16:30,155 --> 00:16:31,448
is taking the pressure?
282
00:16:31,532 --> 00:16:32,866
Think you have him on the run?
283
00:16:32,950 --> 00:16:34,952
Catherine:
Nobody is chasing Mr. Nolan.
284
00:16:35,035 --> 00:16:37,746
All we're after
is the truth here.
285
00:16:37,830 --> 00:16:40,374
And another thing,
it would be nice
286
00:16:40,457 --> 00:16:42,084
if you people would stop
treating this case
287
00:16:42,167 --> 00:16:43,210
like a celebrity divorce.
288
00:16:43,293 --> 00:16:47,089
This trial is not about
wall street or high society,
289
00:16:47,172 --> 00:16:49,383
it is about the victims--
290
00:16:49,466 --> 00:16:52,636
victims of a crime too many
of US pretend isn't there.
291
00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:54,096
(Reporters clamoring)
292
00:16:54,179 --> 00:16:57,099
Man:
What message is this
sending to the city?
293
00:16:57,182 --> 00:16:59,184
(Reporters continue clamoring)
294
00:17:04,898 --> 00:17:07,484
Coroner:
Well, in addition,
he had numerous contusions
295
00:17:07,568 --> 00:17:09,111
on his face and chest,
296
00:17:09,194 --> 00:17:12,448
as well as a cut on his scalp
above the temple.
297
00:17:12,531 --> 00:17:14,032
And the cause
of death?
298
00:17:14,116 --> 00:17:15,784
Fractured spinal column.
299
00:17:15,868 --> 00:17:18,620
It would take
a great deal of force
300
00:17:18,704 --> 00:17:20,456
to break bone like that,
301
00:17:20,539 --> 00:17:21,457
wouldn't it, doctor?
302
00:17:21,540 --> 00:17:22,332
Oh, yes.
303
00:17:22,416 --> 00:17:25,294
Would a woman of
my size and strength,
304
00:17:25,377 --> 00:17:28,130
let's say,
have trouble doing it?
305
00:17:28,213 --> 00:17:31,759
In my opinion, it would be
very difficult, yes.
306
00:17:31,842 --> 00:17:34,470
Phillips:
Be honest with me, doctor.
307
00:17:34,553 --> 00:17:37,514
There is no way that you can
estimate with certainty
308
00:17:37,598 --> 00:17:40,309
whether one individual
can or cannot inflict
309
00:17:40,392 --> 00:17:42,686
a certain degree of
bodily injury to another.
310
00:17:42,770 --> 00:17:43,687
Am I right?
311
00:17:43,771 --> 00:17:45,522
Oh, in many cases,
one could possibly say...
312
00:17:45,606 --> 00:17:48,108
But in this case,
313
00:17:48,192 --> 00:17:50,444
can you determine such a thing
with any certainty?
314
00:17:50,527 --> 00:17:54,198
Well... not with
absolute certainty.
315
00:17:54,281 --> 00:17:56,867
No further questions.
316
00:17:56,950 --> 00:17:58,494
Catherine:
When Mrs. Nolan
showed you her son,
317
00:17:58,577 --> 00:18:00,496
was he still alive?
318
00:18:00,579 --> 00:18:02,790
Not as far as I could tell.
319
00:18:02,873 --> 00:18:04,374
I couldn't find a pulse.
320
00:18:04,458 --> 00:18:06,502
And what did you do?
321
00:18:06,585 --> 00:18:08,337
I gave him cpr.
322
00:18:08,420 --> 00:18:10,297
Was no good.
323
00:18:10,380 --> 00:18:13,300
I decided to wait
for the ambulance guys.
324
00:18:13,383 --> 00:18:16,345
And this is when you
questioned Mrs. Nolan?
325
00:18:16,428 --> 00:18:18,180
Right.
326
00:18:18,263 --> 00:18:21,058
Officer alburg, you have stated
327
00:18:21,141 --> 00:18:23,393
that it was when you
questioned Mrs. Nolan
328
00:18:23,477 --> 00:18:26,522
that you first became
suspicious of her husband.
329
00:18:26,605 --> 00:18:28,524
Was he there at the time?
330
00:18:28,607 --> 00:18:29,900
Not in the beginning.
331
00:18:29,983 --> 00:18:32,361
Then why did you
become suspicious?
332
00:18:32,444 --> 00:18:35,197
All I did was ask her
where he was,
333
00:18:35,280 --> 00:18:36,365
and she got all crazy.
334
00:18:36,448 --> 00:18:37,741
What did she say?
335
00:18:37,825 --> 00:18:40,369
First, she said
she didn't know where he was.
336
00:18:40,452 --> 00:18:42,621
Then, she said
he'd be back soon.
337
00:18:42,704 --> 00:18:45,374
Then, she got all confused,
and finally, she said
338
00:18:45,457 --> 00:18:48,377
I should just
ask him what happened.
339
00:18:48,460 --> 00:18:50,045
Phillips:
You said you found it
340
00:18:50,128 --> 00:18:52,714
suspicious when Mr. Nolan
reacted calmly
341
00:18:52,798 --> 00:18:54,258
when he found out
about his son's death.
342
00:18:54,341 --> 00:18:56,718
It didn't seem to come
as a surprise to him.
343
00:18:56,802 --> 00:18:59,263
If you were responsible for
your child's death, officer,
344
00:18:59,346 --> 00:19:00,264
would you be calm?
345
00:19:00,347 --> 00:19:02,766
Or would you,
perhaps more likely, be upset,
346
00:19:02,850 --> 00:19:03,767
like Mrs. Nolan?
347
00:19:03,851 --> 00:19:05,602
Objection! Hypothetical.
348
00:19:05,686 --> 00:19:07,312
The witness is
not an expert.
349
00:19:07,396 --> 00:19:08,772
Sustained.
350
00:19:08,856 --> 00:19:11,358
Withdraw the question.
351
00:19:13,360 --> 00:19:16,029
(Spectators whispering)
352
00:19:19,491 --> 00:19:22,077
Mrs. Nolan, I
understand it's...
353
00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:24,121
I...
354
00:19:24,204 --> 00:19:27,916
I don't think
I can stand it...
355
00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:30,419
Talking about it.
356
00:19:30,502 --> 00:19:32,754
I know.
357
00:19:32,838 --> 00:19:36,425
But we have to get these
details clear in your mind.
358
00:19:36,508 --> 00:19:38,385
Tomorrow, your husband's
attorneys will do
359
00:19:38,468 --> 00:19:40,387
everything they can to make
you contradict yourself.
360
00:19:40,470 --> 00:19:41,930
Do I have to go up there?
361
00:19:42,014 --> 00:19:43,599
There's no other way?
362
00:19:43,682 --> 00:19:46,268
I'm afraid not.
363
00:19:46,351 --> 00:19:49,354
Their best defense is to
make you appear guilty.
364
00:19:51,523 --> 00:19:54,234
Make me appear guilty, hmm?
365
00:19:57,029 --> 00:19:59,531
What if I am guilty?
366
00:20:03,577 --> 00:20:05,621
You're just like everybody else.
367
00:20:05,704 --> 00:20:08,457
You think I should be
up on the stand there with him.
368
00:20:08,540 --> 00:20:09,958
No.
369
00:20:10,042 --> 00:20:12,377
No, of course not.
370
00:20:14,129 --> 00:20:17,883
I should just get used to it.
371
00:20:17,966 --> 00:20:20,010
Nobody will ever understand.
372
00:20:20,093 --> 00:20:22,137
Molly...
373
00:20:25,057 --> 00:20:27,517
I want to understand.
374
00:20:27,601 --> 00:20:29,728
You know how he did it?
375
00:20:31,396 --> 00:20:35,233
He told me he loved me.
376
00:20:38,153 --> 00:20:39,947
When he hit me,
377
00:20:40,030 --> 00:20:42,366
he used to tell me
that it was for my own good
378
00:20:42,449 --> 00:20:44,493
and he did it
because he loved me.
379
00:20:48,372 --> 00:20:51,458
Just to hear him say it
was worth the pain.
380
00:20:54,211 --> 00:20:56,338
So I let him.
381
00:20:56,421 --> 00:20:58,840
And it kept getting worse.
382
00:20:58,924 --> 00:21:01,009
And I just...
383
00:21:01,093 --> 00:21:03,679
Kept letting him.
384
00:21:03,762 --> 00:21:05,305
You never fought back?
385
00:21:05,389 --> 00:21:07,391
I couldn't.
386
00:21:07,474 --> 00:21:09,518
You never...
387
00:21:09,601 --> 00:21:11,561
Thought you deserved better?
388
00:21:13,605 --> 00:21:15,565
(Voice breaking):
No.
389
00:21:18,485 --> 00:21:20,779
Oh, my...
390
00:21:20,862 --> 00:21:22,864
(Sobbing)
391
00:21:25,409 --> 00:21:28,286
You do, Molly.
392
00:21:28,370 --> 00:21:31,373
(Sobbing):
Oh, I don't think so.
393
00:21:34,501 --> 00:21:36,878
I don't think so, Cathy.
394
00:21:36,962 --> 00:21:39,172
It wasn't you.
395
00:21:39,256 --> 00:21:40,716
You didn't hurt him.
You never touched him.
396
00:21:40,799 --> 00:21:44,594
I didn't help him.
I didn't help him.
397
00:21:44,678 --> 00:21:46,722
You were afraid for your life.
398
00:21:46,805 --> 00:21:47,931
Everyone knows that.
399
00:21:48,015 --> 00:21:50,517
Do they?
400
00:21:52,519 --> 00:21:55,564
They will.
401
00:21:55,647 --> 00:21:57,691
I promise.
402
00:21:57,774 --> 00:22:00,569
Molly...
403
00:22:00,652 --> 00:22:03,363
Make your husband pay
for what he did.
404
00:22:05,532 --> 00:22:08,994
You can do that tomorrow
when you speak in court.
405
00:22:09,077 --> 00:22:11,788
(Sniffles)
406
00:22:11,872 --> 00:22:13,915
(Sighs)
407
00:22:16,501 --> 00:22:19,212
I'll try.
408
00:22:21,214 --> 00:22:22,215
(Whispering):
Okay.
409
00:22:22,299 --> 00:22:24,259
Let's get back to what happened
when the police...
410
00:22:24,342 --> 00:22:26,386
Thank you, Cathy.
411
00:22:28,889 --> 00:22:31,391
Thank you.
412
00:22:49,701 --> 00:22:51,953
(Child groaning)
413
00:22:52,996 --> 00:22:54,247
(Groaning)
414
00:23:14,893 --> 00:23:17,813
Boy:
Help me.
415
00:23:22,651 --> 00:23:25,070
Help me.
416
00:23:31,451 --> 00:23:33,995
Help me.
417
00:23:36,873 --> 00:23:39,084
Help me.
418
00:23:47,592 --> 00:23:48,593
Help me.
419
00:23:55,058 --> 00:23:57,936
Help me!
420
00:24:01,773 --> 00:24:03,191
Help me.
421
00:24:04,109 --> 00:24:05,652
(Sobbing):
Help me.
422
00:24:05,735 --> 00:24:06,903
Help me.
423
00:24:07,988 --> 00:24:09,531
Help me.
424
00:24:10,407 --> 00:24:12,701
(Sobbing):
Help me.
425
00:24:12,784 --> 00:24:14,870
(Sobbing):
Help me.
Help me.
426
00:24:14,953 --> 00:24:18,874
Help me.
Help me.
427
00:24:18,957 --> 00:24:20,667
(Growling)
428
00:24:20,750 --> 00:24:22,419
(Screaming)
429
00:24:24,462 --> 00:24:26,381
(Panting)
430
00:24:26,464 --> 00:24:28,466
(Subway train
passing in distance)
431
00:24:29,551 --> 00:24:33,096
(Subway train passing
in distance)
432
00:24:40,145 --> 00:24:41,313
Catherine:
Mrs. Nolan,
433
00:24:41,396 --> 00:24:44,024
when you and your husband
were first taken into custody,
434
00:24:44,107 --> 00:24:45,066
you told the police
435
00:24:45,150 --> 00:24:48,403
that your husband had been
away from the apartment
436
00:24:48,486 --> 00:24:51,323
when your son sustained
injuries in a fall.
437
00:24:51,406 --> 00:24:53,283
Was this true?
438
00:24:55,452 --> 00:24:58,246
Mrs. Nolan, I have
to ask you to speak up.
439
00:24:58,330 --> 00:24:59,289
What is your answer?
440
00:24:59,372 --> 00:25:01,041
(Softly):
No.
441
00:25:01,124 --> 00:25:02,626
(Clearing throat):
No.
442
00:25:02,709 --> 00:25:05,295
Why would you lie
to the police
443
00:25:05,378 --> 00:25:08,089
like this, Molly?
444
00:25:09,049 --> 00:25:11,384
I had already lost
my son Jonathan,
445
00:25:11,468 --> 00:25:13,762
and I was afraid
of losing Richard, too.
446
00:25:13,845 --> 00:25:18,266
You loved your husband
and you wanted to protect him?
447
00:25:18,350 --> 00:25:20,227
Yes.
448
00:25:20,310 --> 00:25:22,229
Was there another reason?
449
00:25:22,312 --> 00:25:24,272
Yes.
450
00:25:24,356 --> 00:25:25,732
And what was that?
451
00:25:25,815 --> 00:25:29,361
He told me that...
452
00:25:41,081 --> 00:25:43,291
He told you what, Molly?
453
00:25:43,375 --> 00:25:46,628
He told me...
454
00:25:46,711 --> 00:25:49,631
That...
455
00:25:49,714 --> 00:25:51,258
(Whimpers)
456
00:25:52,259 --> 00:25:54,302
Molly.
457
00:25:54,386 --> 00:25:57,430
You said
that the first story was a lie,
458
00:25:57,514 --> 00:26:00,642
but later you went on
to tell the truth.
459
00:26:00,725 --> 00:26:02,269
You did the right thing.
460
00:26:02,352 --> 00:26:04,771
Tell US the truth now.
461
00:26:04,854 --> 00:26:06,314
(Crying):
I can't.
462
00:26:08,525 --> 00:26:11,278
Did your husband
hit Jonathan that night?
463
00:26:11,361 --> 00:26:12,654
(Sniffles)
464
00:26:12,737 --> 00:26:13,989
Did he?
465
00:26:14,072 --> 00:26:16,324
Your honor, she's harassing
her own witness.
466
00:26:16,408 --> 00:26:19,452
Ms. Nolan, do you intend
to answer the question?
467
00:26:19,536 --> 00:26:21,830
I can't, I can't.
468
00:26:21,913 --> 00:26:23,331
If you don't answer
the question,
469
00:26:23,415 --> 00:26:25,458
then I'll have to ask you
to step down.
470
00:26:25,542 --> 00:26:26,960
Answer the question, Molly.
471
00:26:27,043 --> 00:26:29,254
Answer
for Jonathan.
472
00:26:30,255 --> 00:26:31,715
I'm sorry.
473
00:26:31,798 --> 00:26:33,466
The witness will have
to step down.
474
00:26:36,428 --> 00:26:38,263
Phillips:
Your honor, her testimony must
be disallowed.
475
00:26:38,346 --> 00:26:40,223
I can't cross-examine
if she can't speak.
476
00:26:40,307 --> 00:26:41,349
She can speak.
477
00:26:41,433 --> 00:26:43,560
She won't speak for
the same reason she kept quiet
478
00:26:43,643 --> 00:26:44,853
the night her son was killed.
479
00:26:44,936 --> 00:26:46,396
Because she is scared
to death of him!
480
00:26:46,479 --> 00:26:48,481
Your honor.
Ms. Chandler,
481
00:26:48,565 --> 00:26:50,317
another word and
you'll be in contempt.
482
00:26:50,400 --> 00:26:52,360
Your honor, if the
witness won't testify,
483
00:26:52,444 --> 00:26:54,029
I move that this case
be dismissed
484
00:26:54,112 --> 00:26:55,864
on the grounds
of insufficient evidence.
485
00:26:55,947 --> 00:26:58,325
Ms. Chandler?
486
00:26:58,408 --> 00:26:59,200
I have to rule on this.
487
00:26:59,284 --> 00:27:01,703
Do you have other
witnesses to call?
488
00:27:05,457 --> 00:27:07,375
Your honor,
under the circumstances,
489
00:27:07,459 --> 00:27:10,545
I move that my witness be
allowed to testify on videotape.
490
00:27:10,628 --> 00:27:12,589
There have been other
precedents in abuse cases
491
00:27:12,672 --> 00:27:14,382
where the victims
were allowed...
492
00:27:14,466 --> 00:27:16,509
Those precedents were
for testimony by children only.
493
00:27:16,593 --> 00:27:17,844
They don't apply here.
494
00:27:17,927 --> 00:27:20,430
My client deserves the right
to face his accuser.
495
00:27:20,513 --> 00:27:23,016
I'm sorry, Ms. Chandler,
your motion is denied.
496
00:27:24,017 --> 00:27:27,228
Well, then, I... I'll need a...
497
00:27:27,312 --> 00:27:29,939
I-I would like
to request a continuance.
498
00:27:30,023 --> 00:27:32,984
Does defense counsel have
any objection?
499
00:27:33,068 --> 00:27:35,779
My client deserves the right
to a speedy trial.
500
00:27:38,365 --> 00:27:40,909
Motion for dismissal is denied.
501
00:27:40,992 --> 00:27:44,079
A continuation is
granted for 24 hours.
502
00:27:44,162 --> 00:27:45,497
(Strikes gavel)
503
00:28:04,516 --> 00:28:06,559
Reporter (over TV):
The city council is
still at a stalemate
504
00:28:06,643 --> 00:28:09,437
on the battery park
low income housing development.
505
00:28:09,521 --> 00:28:11,439
Also coming up
on the news at 10:00,
506
00:28:11,523 --> 00:28:13,608
a setback for the prosecution
507
00:28:13,691 --> 00:28:17,112
in the Nolan case as da's
prosecutor Catherine Chandler
508
00:28:17,195 --> 00:28:19,030
loses control
of her star witness
509
00:28:19,114 --> 00:28:20,281
on the stand.
510
00:28:20,365 --> 00:28:21,491
We'll have more after this.
511
00:28:21,574 --> 00:28:22,492
(Changes channel)
512
00:28:22,575 --> 00:28:25,245
No, I think miss Chandler
is doing a fine job.
513
00:28:25,328 --> 00:28:26,913
If the prosecution
is having problems,
514
00:28:26,996 --> 00:28:28,790
it says more about the
strength of their case
515
00:28:28,873 --> 00:28:30,959
than the strength
of their legal help.
516
00:28:37,882 --> 00:28:38,925
(Knocks)
517
00:28:45,974 --> 00:28:48,268
(Sighs)
518
00:28:48,351 --> 00:28:50,478
I'm glad to see you.
519
00:28:50,562 --> 00:28:52,021
Tell me.
520
00:28:52,105 --> 00:28:55,191
(Sighs)
521
00:28:55,275 --> 00:28:57,318
It's not going well.
522
00:28:57,402 --> 00:28:59,237
The helpers bring
glowing reports.
523
00:28:59,320 --> 00:29:00,655
No, not anymore.
524
00:29:00,738 --> 00:29:01,823
We've had a setback.
525
00:29:01,906 --> 00:29:03,032
What happened?
526
00:29:03,116 --> 00:29:08,037
I underestimated the power
of the man we're prosecuting.
527
00:29:08,121 --> 00:29:10,498
I underestimated his control.
528
00:29:10,582 --> 00:29:12,000
He sits
in that courtroom
529
00:29:12,083 --> 00:29:14,502
with the best defense lawyers
money can buy,
530
00:29:14,586 --> 00:29:17,172
listening to the atrocities
that he's committed
531
00:29:17,255 --> 00:29:19,799
with cold, dead eyes.
532
00:29:19,883 --> 00:29:23,511
He's making a mockery of this
trial and of a child's death,
533
00:29:23,595 --> 00:29:25,430
and I can't do anything.
534
00:29:28,766 --> 00:29:30,685
You must continue fighting.
535
00:29:30,768 --> 00:29:31,519
I know.
536
00:29:31,603 --> 00:29:33,855
Even if there is
nothing you can do.
537
00:29:33,938 --> 00:29:37,609
You must do it for the child,
538
00:29:37,692 --> 00:29:39,986
for his memory,
539
00:29:40,069 --> 00:29:43,239
and for all of US who refuse
to accept that child's death
540
00:29:43,323 --> 00:29:46,201
alone in a room.
541
00:29:46,284 --> 00:29:49,078
That child's suffering
must not be forgotten.
542
00:29:49,162 --> 00:29:50,663
It won't, Vincent.
543
00:29:50,747 --> 00:29:53,374
It must not be forgotten!
544
00:29:53,458 --> 00:29:54,542
(Sighs)
545
00:29:54,626 --> 00:29:59,506
Because that child stands
in silent judgment of US all.
546
00:29:59,589 --> 00:30:01,966
(Sighs)
547
00:30:19,609 --> 00:30:22,612
♪ ♪
548
00:30:35,667 --> 00:30:38,378
Got enough
there for two?
549
00:30:38,461 --> 00:30:40,421
(Sighs)
550
00:30:40,505 --> 00:30:42,298
You scared me.
551
00:30:43,341 --> 00:30:45,385
Sorry.
552
00:30:51,182 --> 00:30:53,601
I really am
sorry, Cathy.
553
00:30:53,685 --> 00:30:55,103
If you've come
to offer your help,
554
00:30:55,186 --> 00:30:56,271
I think it's a little late.
555
00:30:56,354 --> 00:30:58,231
You don't need my help.
556
00:30:58,314 --> 00:30:59,107
Never did.
557
00:30:59,190 --> 00:31:01,442
(Scoffing):
Now you're being sarcastic.
558
00:31:01,526 --> 00:31:03,611
I've been watching
you, kiddo.
559
00:31:03,695 --> 00:31:05,405
Every move.
560
00:31:05,488 --> 00:31:07,282
I've been like every
other new yorker
561
00:31:07,365 --> 00:31:09,826
these past few weeks--
glued to the tube,
562
00:31:09,909 --> 00:31:12,412
and I got to tell you,
I've never felt so proud.
563
00:31:16,374 --> 00:31:18,459
Thank you, Joe.
564
00:31:18,543 --> 00:31:20,295
I never expected that.
565
00:31:20,378 --> 00:31:23,756
So, tomorrow's
the big day.
566
00:31:23,840 --> 00:31:25,425
What's the
new game plan?
567
00:31:25,508 --> 00:31:27,927
The daughter, Amy Nolan.
568
00:31:28,011 --> 00:31:29,470
Sounds good to me.
569
00:31:29,554 --> 00:31:32,015
Go after the credibility
of Nolan's alibi.
570
00:31:34,058 --> 00:31:36,311
What's this?
571
00:31:44,444 --> 00:31:47,363
I'm not sure
the judge will allow it.
572
00:31:50,617 --> 00:31:51,909
You've got to use this.
573
00:31:53,911 --> 00:31:55,830
Yeah, I guess so.
574
00:31:55,913 --> 00:31:57,290
Cathy, the verdict is going
to ride
575
00:31:57,373 --> 00:31:59,959
as much on emotions as facts.
576
00:32:00,043 --> 00:32:01,252
When the dust settles,
577
00:32:01,336 --> 00:32:05,006
you'll realize you did Amy Nolan
the greatest favor of her life.
578
00:32:07,425 --> 00:32:11,012
Phillips:
So just to clarify the facts
one last time.
579
00:32:11,095 --> 00:32:13,348
You were with your father
constantly from the hours
580
00:32:13,431 --> 00:32:17,560
of 7:30 to 9:00 P.M.
on the evening of February 6?
581
00:32:17,644 --> 00:32:19,228
Yes.
582
00:32:19,312 --> 00:32:21,606
And at no time did he
leave your company
for more than
583
00:32:21,689 --> 00:32:22,690
a few minutes, is that right?
584
00:32:22,774 --> 00:32:23,691
Yes.
585
00:32:23,775 --> 00:32:25,985
Thank you, Amy.
586
00:32:26,069 --> 00:32:27,487
I have nothing more,
your honor.
587
00:32:27,570 --> 00:32:29,280
The defense... rests.
588
00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:32,241
Ms. Chandler?
589
00:32:32,325 --> 00:32:34,035
Your witness.
590
00:32:34,118 --> 00:32:35,745
Thank you, your honor.
591
00:32:38,289 --> 00:32:42,210
Hello, Amy.
592
00:32:42,293 --> 00:32:44,379
My name is Catherine Chandler,
593
00:32:44,462 --> 00:32:45,546
and my job
594
00:32:45,630 --> 00:32:48,049
is to find
the truth.
595
00:32:48,132 --> 00:32:50,968
I just want you to know
that whatever happens,
596
00:32:51,052 --> 00:32:53,054
I don't mean
to hurt you.
597
00:32:54,806 --> 00:32:57,225
On the evening of February 6,
598
00:32:57,308 --> 00:32:59,352
your father took you
out for dinner.
599
00:32:59,435 --> 00:33:00,770
Is this correct?
600
00:33:00,853 --> 00:33:02,647
Yes.
601
00:33:02,730 --> 00:33:03,773
What restaurant did your father
602
00:33:03,856 --> 00:33:06,234
take you
to that night, Amy?
603
00:33:06,317 --> 00:33:08,695
A little Thai place
near my apartment.
604
00:33:08,778 --> 00:33:10,738
Do you go there often?
605
00:33:10,822 --> 00:33:12,240
I guess.
606
00:33:12,323 --> 00:33:16,244
So you would say it's one
of your favorites?
607
00:33:16,327 --> 00:33:18,621
Sure.
608
00:33:18,705 --> 00:33:21,374
How nice that your father
remembers
609
00:33:21,457 --> 00:33:25,336
some of your favorite things.
610
00:33:25,420 --> 00:33:28,798
So you would say you and
your father are very close?
611
00:33:30,633 --> 00:33:33,094
Yes.
612
00:33:33,177 --> 00:33:34,387
Did you know your father
613
00:33:34,470 --> 00:33:36,222
physically abused
your stepmother?
614
00:33:36,305 --> 00:33:38,224
Objection, your honor!
She's harassing the witness
615
00:33:38,307 --> 00:33:40,059
for irrelevant information!
616
00:33:40,143 --> 00:33:43,271
Your honor, I am trying to
establish the credibility
617
00:33:43,354 --> 00:33:46,274
of the most important
witness in this trial.
618
00:33:46,357 --> 00:33:47,066
Objection overruled.
619
00:33:47,150 --> 00:33:49,527
The witness may
answer the question.
620
00:33:53,030 --> 00:33:55,283
No, I didn't know.
621
00:33:55,366 --> 00:33:57,994
Do you know if your father
was physically abusive
622
00:33:58,077 --> 00:34:00,413
to your stepbrother,
Jonathan?
623
00:34:02,039 --> 00:34:03,958
No.
624
00:34:04,041 --> 00:34:08,463
Do you think this kind of
physical abuse is wrong, Amy?
625
00:34:08,546 --> 00:34:10,339
I don't know.
626
00:34:10,423 --> 00:34:12,258
I guess so.
627
00:34:12,341 --> 00:34:15,720
Did your father ever abuse you?
628
00:34:19,348 --> 00:34:20,391
No.
629
00:34:32,236 --> 00:34:35,782
Amy, I have here
your medical records
630
00:34:35,865 --> 00:34:37,325
for the past several years.
631
00:34:37,408 --> 00:34:38,951
Objection, irrelevant.
632
00:34:39,035 --> 00:34:40,077
Overruled.
633
00:34:42,413 --> 00:34:47,001
Two years ago, you were treated
for a fractured wrist.
634
00:34:47,085 --> 00:34:48,628
Do you remember
how that happened, Amy?
635
00:34:48,711 --> 00:34:50,338
I'm not sure.
636
00:34:50,421 --> 00:34:51,464
It says here
637
00:34:51,547 --> 00:34:54,300
that you tripped and fell.
638
00:34:54,383 --> 00:34:56,302
Was that what happened?
639
00:34:56,385 --> 00:34:57,720
I guess.
640
00:34:57,804 --> 00:34:59,180
And one month later,
641
00:34:59,263 --> 00:35:00,973
you were at the hospital again.
642
00:35:01,057 --> 00:35:04,060
This time you needed stitches
in your ear.
643
00:35:04,143 --> 00:35:07,438
Do you remember
how this happened?
644
00:35:07,522 --> 00:35:11,192
I... I think I fell down again.
645
00:35:11,275 --> 00:35:12,527
Are you certain?
646
00:35:12,610 --> 00:35:15,238
Is that how
you recall it?
647
00:35:15,321 --> 00:35:16,697
I'm not positive.
648
00:35:16,781 --> 00:35:18,741
These are serious
accidents, Amy.
649
00:35:18,825 --> 00:35:20,201
Don't you think it's strange
650
00:35:20,284 --> 00:35:22,203
that you don't remember
how they happened?
651
00:35:22,286 --> 00:35:23,371
I remember.
652
00:35:23,454 --> 00:35:28,292
Well, then... can you explain
these injuries to US?
653
00:35:28,376 --> 00:35:30,878
No, I can't.
654
00:35:30,962 --> 00:35:33,381
This file goes on and on.
655
00:35:33,464 --> 00:35:35,383
Would you like me to
read it to the court?
656
00:35:35,466 --> 00:35:38,678
What about this fractured rib?
657
00:35:38,761 --> 00:35:42,849
And this infected bruise
over your right eye?
658
00:35:42,932 --> 00:35:45,059
And this broken finger?
659
00:35:45,143 --> 00:35:48,521
Can you explain
these injuries?
660
00:35:48,604 --> 00:35:50,064
No.
661
00:35:50,147 --> 00:35:54,777
Amy, your father did these
things to you, didn't he?
662
00:36:01,033 --> 00:36:02,743
Yes.
663
00:36:02,827 --> 00:36:05,413
And you also knew also knew
that he beat Molly
664
00:36:05,496 --> 00:36:07,248
and your brother Jonathan.
665
00:36:07,331 --> 00:36:09,959
Isn't that true?
666
00:36:12,503 --> 00:36:14,589
We have to hear
your answer, young lady.
667
00:36:14,672 --> 00:36:17,133
(Sobbing):
Yes.
668
00:36:17,216 --> 00:36:21,095
Isn't that why you testified
669
00:36:21,178 --> 00:36:24,265
that you were with your father
at 7:30 that night--
670
00:36:24,348 --> 00:36:27,101
because you were afraid
that he would hurt you
671
00:36:27,184 --> 00:36:28,352
if you didn't?
672
00:36:30,688 --> 00:36:31,814
No.
673
00:36:33,316 --> 00:36:36,485
Amy, are you saying that he was
with you that night?
674
00:36:36,569 --> 00:36:38,279
(Sniffles)
675
00:36:38,362 --> 00:36:40,156
Yes.
676
00:36:40,239 --> 00:36:43,618
Your stepbrother
Jonathan is dead.
677
00:36:43,701 --> 00:36:46,537
Are you certain
that this is your answer?!
678
00:36:51,334 --> 00:36:53,586
Yes.
679
00:36:56,839 --> 00:37:00,009
No more questions, your honor.
680
00:37:00,092 --> 00:37:02,053
You may step down.
681
00:37:11,896 --> 00:37:13,314
Sheets:
This case is as simple
682
00:37:13,397 --> 00:37:16,025
as the facts presented
in this courtroom:
683
00:37:16,108 --> 00:37:18,194
Mr. Nolan was not present
at the scene of the crime,
684
00:37:18,277 --> 00:37:20,655
so he must be innocent.
685
00:37:20,738 --> 00:37:23,866
Even if you doubt the testimony
that places him elsewhere,
686
00:37:23,950 --> 00:37:24,992
you must remember
687
00:37:25,076 --> 00:37:27,703
that the prosecution has given
no conclusive evidence
688
00:37:27,787 --> 00:37:29,163
to incriminate him:
689
00:37:29,246 --> 00:37:30,831
No means, no motive,
690
00:37:30,915 --> 00:37:33,250
and most important,
no witness to the crime.
691
00:37:33,334 --> 00:37:36,170
But since the issue
has been raised--
692
00:37:36,253 --> 00:37:38,339
and I'm sure it will be present
in your minds
693
00:37:38,422 --> 00:37:39,423
when you deliberate--
694
00:37:39,507 --> 00:37:45,638
let me address the issue
of Richard Nolan's humanity.
695
00:37:45,721 --> 00:37:47,765
It is true that Mr. Nolan
696
00:37:47,848 --> 00:37:49,850
has abused members
of his family,
697
00:37:49,934 --> 00:37:53,646
and frankly, knowing that he is
a man of education
698
00:37:53,729 --> 00:37:57,066
and great accomplishment,
we must wonder why.
699
00:37:57,149 --> 00:37:59,318
The answer is--
700
00:37:59,402 --> 00:38:02,697
like so many in our society
who abuse others--
701
00:38:02,780 --> 00:38:06,867
Richard Nolan was as a child
abused himself.
702
00:38:06,951 --> 00:38:10,579
It's a tragic reality
703
00:38:10,663 --> 00:38:15,543
that people who are abused
often become abusers themselves.
704
00:38:15,626 --> 00:38:18,546
Whether this is because
they retain some vestige
705
00:38:18,629 --> 00:38:20,589
of aggression
that needs to be vented,
706
00:38:20,673 --> 00:38:22,675
or simply that
they become conditioned
707
00:38:22,758 --> 00:38:25,219
to communicating with violence
we don't know.
708
00:38:25,302 --> 00:38:27,888
All we know is
that these victims
709
00:38:27,972 --> 00:38:31,559
become like carriers
of a deadly disease.
710
00:38:31,642 --> 00:38:35,521
But, ladies and gentlemen...
711
00:38:35,604 --> 00:38:38,566
My client did not kill his son.
712
00:38:38,649 --> 00:38:41,902
Whatever else you may think
of Richard Nolan,
713
00:38:41,986 --> 00:38:44,905
you be sure
when you deliberate this charge,
714
00:38:44,989 --> 00:38:46,907
you remember,
715
00:38:46,991 --> 00:38:49,869
there is far more
than a shadow of a doubt
716
00:38:49,952 --> 00:38:52,204
that he was even present.
717
00:38:52,288 --> 00:38:55,541
(Spectators murmuring)
718
00:38:55,624 --> 00:38:57,626
Thank you.
719
00:39:16,187 --> 00:39:18,606
We've just heard
720
00:39:18,689 --> 00:39:23,611
that Richard Nolan is a man
suffering from a disease.
721
00:39:23,694 --> 00:39:27,490
He passed that disease
to his wife, we're told.
722
00:39:27,573 --> 00:39:30,618
She passed it to their son,
723
00:39:30,701 --> 00:39:33,454
and the boy died from it.
724
00:39:33,537 --> 00:39:35,081
Very simple.
725
00:39:35,164 --> 00:39:40,878
And the name that's been given
this disease, is abuse.
726
00:39:43,839 --> 00:39:46,425
Well...
727
00:39:46,509 --> 00:39:50,471
I will agree that
there is a disease here,
728
00:39:50,554 --> 00:39:51,639
and I'll agree
729
00:39:51,722 --> 00:39:53,933
that Richard Nolan
suffers from it.
730
00:39:54,016 --> 00:39:56,268
But I won't agree
that it's contagious,
731
00:39:56,352 --> 00:39:59,605
and I won't agree
that it's fatal,
732
00:39:59,688 --> 00:40:03,025
and I won't even agree
to its name.
733
00:40:07,071 --> 00:40:10,116
Ladies and gentlemen,
734
00:40:10,199 --> 00:40:13,994
I would like to tell you
about a place.
735
00:40:15,746 --> 00:40:18,165
It's a special place I know,
736
00:40:18,249 --> 00:40:21,252
where this disease
does not exist.
737
00:40:22,711 --> 00:40:26,257
It is a place
that many people go to
738
00:40:26,340 --> 00:40:28,217
when they've been in pain,
739
00:40:28,300 --> 00:40:30,719
when they've been abused,
740
00:40:30,803 --> 00:40:33,848
so the disease does come
there...
741
00:40:33,931 --> 00:40:36,725
But it never stays.
742
00:40:40,771 --> 00:40:42,690
It is in our hearts,
743
00:40:42,773 --> 00:40:44,692
in that room
744
00:40:44,775 --> 00:40:48,779
where hatred and cruelty
do not belong.
745
00:40:49,780 --> 00:40:51,907
I have told you
746
00:40:51,991 --> 00:40:56,704
that Richard Nolan's disease
needed a different name.
747
00:40:56,787 --> 00:41:01,375
The name that I would give it is
heartlessness.
748
00:41:02,668 --> 00:41:05,713
Only a man with an empty heart
749
00:41:05,796 --> 00:41:08,674
could brutalize and terrorize
the ones
750
00:41:08,757 --> 00:41:09,633
that loved him.
751
00:41:09,717 --> 00:41:16,682
I believe that Richard Nolan
has no heart.
752
00:41:16,765 --> 00:41:20,603
And I believe
that the proof of that is
753
00:41:20,686 --> 00:41:23,731
on Molly Nolan's
lonely face.
754
00:41:23,814 --> 00:41:28,652
And we also know why that woman
could never have hurt her child.
755
00:41:29,987 --> 00:41:32,281
She sat on that stand,
756
00:41:32,364 --> 00:41:35,075
when all of US knew what
Richard Nolan had done to her,
757
00:41:35,159 --> 00:41:39,288
and still she could not speak
against him,
758
00:41:39,371 --> 00:41:42,541
because she knew that to do so
would bring pain
759
00:41:42,625 --> 00:41:45,127
to someone that she loved.
760
00:41:45,211 --> 00:41:49,840
Molly Nolan has a heart.
761
00:41:50,841 --> 00:41:52,760
(Catherine sighs)
762
00:41:52,843 --> 00:41:55,554
I am asking you
763
00:41:55,638 --> 00:42:00,100
to go to that place
in your hearts...
764
00:42:00,184 --> 00:42:04,104
To find justice for a brutally
murdered little boy.
765
00:42:06,065 --> 00:42:11,612
That place is
where the truth lives.
766
00:42:11,695 --> 00:42:15,950
That place is where each of US
carries the cure
767
00:42:16,033 --> 00:42:19,662
to this terrible disease.
768
00:42:36,720 --> 00:42:39,473
(Sighs)
769
00:42:51,610 --> 00:42:53,529
Have you reached
a verdict?
770
00:42:53,612 --> 00:42:55,656
Yes, we have, your honor.
771
00:43:14,216 --> 00:43:16,176
We find the
defendant guilty
772
00:43:16,260 --> 00:43:19,179
of murder
in the second degree.
773
00:43:19,263 --> 00:43:22,349
(Widespread murmuring)
774
00:43:24,101 --> 00:43:25,894
(Sighs)
775
00:43:30,399 --> 00:43:33,193
(Reporters clamoring)
776
00:43:37,281 --> 00:43:39,533
Catherine:
Let me just make
a brief statement.
777
00:43:39,616 --> 00:43:41,994
We are very happy
778
00:43:42,077 --> 00:43:44,747
that justice was done
in this courtroom today.
779
00:43:44,830 --> 00:43:47,374
A guilty man will pay
for his crime.
780
00:43:47,458 --> 00:43:52,212
But justice will not be served
in thousands of other places
781
00:43:52,296 --> 00:43:53,839
in this city
782
00:43:53,922 --> 00:43:56,550
until we all confront the fact
of a crime
783
00:43:56,634 --> 00:44:00,721
that happens everywhere,
and every day.
784
00:44:00,804 --> 00:44:04,224
It's not just my job to stop it.
785
00:44:04,308 --> 00:44:06,226
It's our job.
786
00:44:06,310 --> 00:44:07,728
(Reporters clamoring)
787
00:44:07,811 --> 00:44:08,771
Excuse me.
788
00:44:08,854 --> 00:44:10,314
Excuse US.
789
00:44:17,654 --> 00:44:20,199
It's over.
790
00:44:20,282 --> 00:44:22,201
We won.
791
00:44:22,284 --> 00:44:25,079
Good.
792
00:44:25,162 --> 00:44:28,207
It's a beginning.
793
00:44:35,172 --> 00:44:37,591
Where are the voices?
794
00:44:37,674 --> 00:44:41,053
It's all so quiet.
795
00:44:41,136 --> 00:44:43,931
Sometimes when the winds shift,
796
00:44:44,014 --> 00:44:46,975
the voices, the echoes are lost.
797
00:44:56,860 --> 00:44:59,571
Are you sad, Vincent?
798
00:45:01,573 --> 00:45:04,701
More than once I've...
799
00:45:05,869 --> 00:45:08,872
...heard a child's voice
crying out.
800
00:45:10,374 --> 00:45:13,961
There was no way I could reach
it, no way I could even find it.
801
00:45:14,044 --> 00:45:16,505
All I could do was
stand here
802
00:45:16,588 --> 00:45:19,633
and listen to it cry,
803
00:45:19,716 --> 00:45:22,636
and wonder...
804
00:45:22,719 --> 00:45:25,639
How can we begin to love life?
805
00:45:25,722 --> 00:45:28,767
How can we accept its gifts?
806
00:45:28,851 --> 00:45:31,019
How can we forget
even for a moment
807
00:45:31,103 --> 00:45:35,607
when children suffer
the way they do?
808
00:45:39,987 --> 00:45:41,864
(Sighs)
809
00:45:41,947 --> 00:45:45,492
We can only start
with ourselves, I guess,
810
00:45:45,576 --> 00:45:49,079
with our own lives...
811
00:45:50,747 --> 00:45:53,375
...to try to touch the ones
812
00:45:53,459 --> 00:45:56,128
that cross our paths.
813
00:45:56,211 --> 00:45:58,630
That's what you did for me
814
00:45:58,714 --> 00:46:01,717
the night you
found me.
815
00:46:01,800 --> 00:46:05,679
It's everything you've given me
from that moment on.
816
00:46:10,934 --> 00:46:13,854
We won today
817
00:46:13,937 --> 00:46:16,064
because we had the truth
818
00:46:16,148 --> 00:46:18,525
and it touched people.
819
00:46:18,609 --> 00:46:21,570
People recognize it
in their hearts.
820
00:46:21,653 --> 00:46:23,530
It can't be denied
821
00:46:23,614 --> 00:46:26,658
and there is a great power
in that.
822
00:46:28,452 --> 00:46:31,788
So we keep fighting.
823
00:46:33,790 --> 00:46:36,710
Yes.
824
00:46:36,793 --> 00:46:40,797
We keep fighting.
