Barnaby Jones, a Quinn Martin production, starring Buddy Epson.
Also starring Lee Merriweather, Mark Schera,
with guest stars Laurie Prang, John Reilly,
Robert Mandan, Neva Patterson.
Tonight's episode,
Prisoner of defeat.
Yeah.
Oh, look at you.
See,
there ought to be a law against someone as pretty as you.
There is against ladders. In Persia, they make you kiss for ten straight days
without taking a breath or turning your girl's head.
Let's hold off on the execution of my sentence until we talk about us.
What do you think? In a couple of days, we could be dropping anchor in Mazatlan.
I'd like to, Jack.
Hello?
I can't.
No, I can't.
It isn't because I don't want to. But you can get a quick Mexican divorce. We
can be gone. He'll never find us. Yes, he would, wherever we go.
And every time you're out of my sight, I'd be so frightened. I'd be so afraid
God probably killed you.
I don't think my husband's capable of murder while he is. I know.
And that's exactly why I am afraid of him.
But I think I have the solution.
Come here and look.
I've been digging into the past, trying to find some reason why Godfrey's got
this terrible hold on you.
It's the fire. It happened so long ago.
I was only a child when my father died.
I didn't even want to bring it up until I was absolutely sure.
Sure of what?
That Godfrey'd set the fire.
God. Trace, Godfrey killed your father and set the fire to cover it up.
Well, you'd have to have proof.
I do.
Do you remember Selma Lawrence, your father's housekeeper?
Yes, of course. She was like a mother to me.
She was in the house the night the fire started.
And then she disappeared right before the inquest.
Remember, she went away.
No, Godfrey paid her to go away.
Trace, I know where she is. I found Selma Lawrence.
You've seen her?
No, I see her tomorrow.
I can prove it.
Godfrey killed your father and set the fire to cover it up.
Get out of here, Tracy.
Leave her alone, Godfrey. She's not going with me. Keep out of this,
And keep out of my marriage.
Tracy's leaving you. No, she's not.
Not with you.
And not with anyone else. Go on, Tracy.
Tracy, don't. This isn't the first time I've had to deal with a punk like you.
Don't ever try to see Tracy again.
I see.
I see.
It's changed.
Time was, you could see the beaches.
Now it's wall -to -wall condominium.
I don't know about the good old days, but old Santa Carla looks just fine the
way it is.
Don't reel in the first one, it'll hit your line, Jedediah. The water's full of
them.
Mr. Jones!
Good to see you again.
From what Betty told me, I half expected you last night.
Well, I didn't get my desk cleaned off in time. This is my associate, Jedediah
Jones. Sorry to hear about your brother's accident.
It wasn't any accident.
Let's go on board where we can talk.
All those robberies you solved for my plan a few years ago, I mean, how can
calculate the odds against somebody needing a private investigator once, let
alone twice in their life, huh?
From the police report we stopped to read, it would seem that once would have
been enough. That wasn't a report, it was a farce.
They haven't dug for the real facts. I'm telling you, Barnaby, somebody murdered
my brother.
Well, according to the autopsy, he'd been drinking.
They're saying that he stumbled off the dock, hit his head against the boat.
Yeah, sure, Jack drank, but only a shot or two. His stomach couldn't take more.
You can check that out with his doctor.
Nevertheless, that's not enough to prove that it wasn't an accident.
Look, Jack and I were always very close. No secrets between us.
That's until he brought his boat up here to Santa Carla. Then he started to clam
up on me.
What do you mean? You think he got into some kind of trouble up here?
Yeah, our trouble. Fell in love with some girl.
Admitted that much.
You know who?
No, he wouldn't tell me her name.
Maybe because she was married.
Sounds like you worked yourself up to a jealous husband theory.
It could be.
See, Jack was a freelance newspaper man. Featured stuff.
Said he was working on some kind of a story up here. Wouldn't tell me what,
I got the feeling that the two were connected. The story and the girl.
That's it?
Nothing more tangible?
Well, if you call something missing tangible.
Jack always kept a gun on board.
One of these drawers.
Now it's gone.
Did he give you the impression that the story he was working on was dangerous
enough for him to carry a gun?
Oh, I don't know, Barnaby.
At Jedediah, I told you it's gone. I've searched everywhere.
Was it just the gun you were looking for?
I don't know. Wait a minute. I hear something.
That's just an old piece of newspaper.
wins gold cup.
We're going to be fine with that girl. If she turns out to be a dead end, at
least I know we've tried.
All right.
Where can we contact you, Steve?
Here, I'll be staying on board until I can clear up some of Jack's estate.
Have you any idea why your brother would have wanted to go to Reno?
Reno? According to the police, they found an airline ticket to Reno in his
pocket when they pulled him out of the water.
Here it is.
Aurora wins Gold Cup.
Well, other than that, doesn't seem to be too much news.
Except for that story down there.
Inquest held in millionaire David Enright's death.
Big story at the time. He was found burned to death right in his own house.
Survived by daughter Tracy, sister Lillian.
Search goes on for missing witness Selma Lawrence, the Enright housekeeper.
Your file have any more on that story?
Pretty much died with the inquest.
But his sister, Lillian Enright, might be able to give you more. Lives down at
the marina.
Maybe you could tell me a little something about your brother's death.
David?
He was trapped in a burning room.
But that was 12 years ago. I don't see what connection it could possibly have.
Well, for some reason, Jack Crandall was interested in that fire.
Any idea how it started?
Nobody knew for sure.
What about the missing housekeeper, Selma Lawrence?
Well, I never subscribed to the theories that she went bonkers and put the torch
to her boss.
No, I have my own suspicions about that.
Care to share them?
As a result of my brother's death, his lawyer, Godfrey Wilde, became executor
the estate.
It gave him complete authority to administer Tracy's inheritance.
Tracy, your brother's 12 -year -old daughter.
Tracy hasn't been 12 for a long time, Mr. Jones.
In fact, before she was to turn 21, when she would come into control of her own
money, Godfrey married her.
Does that give you the picture?
Kind of paints in the bare places.
It's all perfectly clear to me, as it must have been to Jack Crandall.
Tracy's terrified of Godfrey.
Obviously, he took advantage of that fear to bully her into marrying him.
So he could retain control of the money.
You don't think it's love, do you? He's twice her age.
Well, thank you very much, Miss Enright.
As long as I'm at it, there's one more thing.
My apartment, you see, overlooks the marina parking lot.
On the night that Jack Crandall died, I happened to be on my balcony.
Miss Wilder.
Did Doug Crandall tell you he planned to go to Reno?
Reno?
Can you think of any reason he may have wanted to go there?
I didn't know Jack very well.
I liked him.
He was the kind of person you could go to if you needed help.
Was he helping you with something?
He was trying to.
Something about your father's death?
No, of course not.
That was years ago.
It was about money, as a matter of fact.
Are you having financial problems?
My husband handles all of my financial affairs.
Last year, he invested rather heavily in some land deal near Reno.
Something to do with the highway they were supposed to build. Well, it all
through, and I lost quite a lot of money.
Jack was trying to find out if I could recover any of it. Does your husband
that you asked Jack to help you?
No.
No, he mustn't know.
You see, he would think I was going behind his back, that I didn't trust his
judgment. Ms. Wilde, this land, could you tell me where it is?
Well, it's all supposed to be rather confidential, but if... Godfrey,
this is Mr. Barnaby Jones.
I know who he is.
He's a private detective who's trying to make such a mystery out of young
Crandall's death.
We're just trying to find out what happened, Mr. Wilde. I thought the
already knew what happened.
Crandall was drunk.
He usually was.
I'm afraid that that's all Tracy and I can help you with.
There is one related matter that you may be able to throw some light on.
What's that?
I hear that your car was parked at the marina the night Jack Crandall was
drowned. Mind telling me what you were doing there?
I didn't tell him that.
Whoever told you that is mistaken.
Are you sure, Mrs. Weil?
Yes. You see, Godfrey couldn't have been at the marina.
We were together all evening.
Neither of us left the house that night.
How'd you get in here?
I'm Steve Crandall, Jack's brother.
Oh.
I heard what happened.
Now I know why Jack wanted to stay in Santa Carla.
Well, I'm sure I don't know what you're talking about, so if you kindly leave...
Why don't you just forget the act?
I was going through Jack's papers and found his gas credit card receipts. Some
had your license number on them.
All right.
But please believe me, Jack was sweet and kind, but there was never anything
between us. Then what is there to hide?
You're being naive.
I'm a married woman.
People don't understand platonic friendships.
You really don't expect me to believe that.
Look, my husband's on his way here. I don't think your husband's on his way
at all.
Well... Jack always said you were the cynic in the family.
He talked about me?
All the time.
How you were the ambitious one ever since you were kids.
How you used to walk him to school to see he didn't get beaten up by the older
boys.
Sometimes he beat us both up.
But you'd never run home and complain to your parents.
I was fought a wrong battle.
You see, I do know a lot about you.
Now, after I got your name from DMV, I... I'll check in.
This house must hold a lot of bitter memories for you.
Because my father died here.
It's still my home.
At least that's the way I think of it.
I grew up here.
I used to do my homework in this room.
My father would be sitting in this chair.
So long as I could turn around and see him there, I knew nothing bad could ever
happen to me.
Jack told me he used to feel the same way about you.
Did you ask him to investigate your father's death?
No.
There was no mystery about it.
The power failed.
My father was lighting some candles in his study.
The curtains caught fire.
He was trying to put them out.
They fell down on top of him.
He was trapped.
Were you in the house then?
He was asleep.
Some of the housekeeper rushed in and got me outside.
I see.
Do you mind if we went outside? This place really gives me the creeps.
Steve, knowing you through Jack and now finally meeting you, I feel I can
somehow trust you.
What was Jack trying to find out from you?
Nothing really.
Just about some land investments my husband made for me in Nevada near Reno.
I'll explain something.
I'll be seeing you again.
I hope so.
Where are you staying?
On Jack's boat.
You'd like to see me arrested for murder, wouldn't you, Lily? I merely
Barnaby Jones the truth.
I did see your car.
And a lot of dollar signs, too.
What is it this time, Lily?
Another trip to Europe or more cash to cover your bank loan again?
Inflation, Godfrey, it keeps us always in need.
But if you think turning that detective on to me is going to help you, forget
it. It's not going to help you get one cent of Tracy's money.
Once you're put away where you belong, Tracy will be free to do exactly as she
pleases with it.
You fool.
Don't you know what would happen?
All right, how much do you want?
I'll give it to you out of my own money, but not Tracy's.
How much is it worth to you to stay out of prison?
Sometimes prison would seem like a relief.
You should have been sent there years ago.
For killing Tracy's father, you still believe that old lie?
You got rid of Selma Lawrence because she knew the truth.
Selma Lawrence? Yes, I did.
Maybe it's time you knew the truth about Selma Lawrence, Lillian.
Not in the desert?
No, it's in the mountains.
Now, what I want you to do is check in at the land office there and see if they
have a record of any real estate transactions involving Godfrey Wild.
Okay, I think I could do that.
And Betty, remember the last time you went to Las Vegas and I had to wire you
money?
Listen, Bobby, I've, uh... Oh, I... I've learned my lesson. I mean, I am going
to stay so far away from those one -armed bandits, you won't believe it.
Well, actually, I'm just a law student, Mr. Long. I haven't taken my bar exams
yet, but it's a real break for me to get to know somebody with your legal
experience. Well, thank you, young man.
Of course, my legal experience was mostly inside the office.
Well, from what I heard, you ran Godfrey Wild's law firm.
32 years I worked for that firm.
And here I am having to count my pennies.
Yeah, well, it seems to me Godfrey Wilde treated you pretty badly after all you
did for him. Not even a pension.
Or a profit -sharing plan.
Well, you weren't the only one who was sent out to pasture without a pension.
To whom were you referring?
The woman who worked for the Enrights. I think her name was Selma Lawrence.
What about Miss Lawrence?
Well, Godfrey had her fired.
Packed her right out of the Enright house without even a month's salary.
Oh, no.
No, he didn't.
He was more than generous.
I heard.
That's not the way I heard it.
I ran Godfrey Wilde's office. I know everything that went on there.
A check was sent out to Miss Lawrence the first of every month.
Maybe we're not talking about the same person.
No, no, no. There was only one.
Selma Lawrence.
I used to send out those checks to Reno myself.
Before I was forced to retire.
Reno?
You wouldn't happen to remember her address, would you?
I don't know what you're really after, young man.
But I don't give out that kind of information.
Thank you for the drink.
No, Barnaby.
There's no record of any Nevada land deal involving Godfrey Wild.
Listen, I'll be landing back in L .A. in about two hours.
Betty, I'm afraid you're going to have to take a later plane.
The other day, I was unable to locate an address on this.
I want you to see if you can locate a Selma Lawrence living in the Reno area
quietly, I imagine, and probably for the last 12 years.
Uh, Selma Lawrence.
All right, I'll get right on it.
All right, tire's stuck, Tracy.
Okay, Steve.
How'd I do?
You were born sailor, Tracy.
Steve, I've had such a marvelous time. Please don't spoil it. I'm sorry.
But no matter how the chips fall, I can't call Barnaby Jones off the case.
Steve, I... I'm frightened.
Look, your husband won't lay a hand on you. I'll see to that. But Carpy has a
gun. Can you thread me with it? No, not yet.
How do you know he has one?
Last night I left my scarf in his car, I thought, in his glove compartment.
What kind was it? What did it look like? I don't know. Small, flat.
Was it like the one Jack had? I don't know, Steve. Please, it's not me I'm
frightened for. It's you.
Godfrey found out about you and Jack and killed him, didn't he? I don't know. I
don't know. All I know is I want to be free of him.
I want to be free of him. All right, all right, all right.
Let's help each other, then.
How? We'll both go to Jones and tell him what you know.
Godfrey's threats, the gun. No.
No, Steve, I don't want what happened to Jack to happen to you.
Tracy, listen to me. No, please, you listen.
Now, Godfrey promised.
He promised that if you got that detective to go away, he promised that
me free. He wouldn't try to get me back, please.
Tracy, if you help Jones nail Godfrey, you will be free. No, he'll kill you.
He'll kill us both.
Tracy!
Uh, J .R., this is Steve Crandall. Is Barnaby there?
No, he isn't. He just took a hop over to Godfrey Wilde's house. Is there
anything I can do?
No, no, that's okay. I'll go up there and talk to him myself.
Bye.
He all right? Very lucky man, I'm told.
A crash like that could have cost a cat eight of his nine lives.
How long before he can tell us what happened?
Who knows?
He was unconscious where they got to him. Still is.
A couple of hours, a couple of days. Excuse me, Mr. Jones.
Now, one of you, this seems like an easy turn.
We're going pretty fast to overshoot it.
What is it? What did you find?
Looks like a piece of taillight, Lou.
If that's from Crandall's car, that would mean he got a little help from
going over this cliff.
I'm really quite tired of answering your questions, Mr. Jones.
If you don't mind my saying so, Mr. Wilde, you don't seem to be too
find out that Steve Crandall's car just flipped off the road not too far from
here.
Unfortunately, accidents seem to run in that family.
The facts don't point to an accident, Mr. Wilde.
I don't see what that has to do with me. Well, I thought you may have been
driving by and seen something. It might prove helpful. It happened around one o
'clock. No, I was here having lunch with my wife. That's funny. I came by about
that time to talk to you, but nobody answered the door and your car was gone.
You said that was one o 'clock?
Ah, yes. Actually, we'd finished lunch earlier than that. Tracy dropped me off
at the club and then took the car to be serviced.
You know, when we were driving up, we noticed that your car was still gone.
Well, actually, Tracy's still using it to keep an appointment with Derek to get
her hair done.
You know, if there's nothing else, I do have business to attend to. Well, if
there is, we'll get in touch with you.
You can drop me off at the motel. Betty's due back from Reno about now.
Well, don't you think we better see if Tracy's alibi checks out with her
husband? You know, before they have a chance to compare notes.
Well, that's why you're going on to the beauty parlor.
Ask Tracy if she'd like to come over for a drink later.
lot, Speedy.
Yeah.
Where you been, Betty?
Gallagher Airport said your plane landed an hour ago.
Oh, well, you know how airports are.
I had to wait forever for a taxi.
Oh, but I did find Thelma Lawrence, or at least I found out where she lives.
Did you see her or speak to her?
No, a woman beat me to it.
Her next -door neighbor said that she saw Selma put some luggage into an old
black limousine, and then they drove off. An old black limousine? With large
whitewall tires?
Yes, and California license plates, do you know it?
Lillian Enright drives a car like that.
Does one -armed bandits take all your money?
What makes you think that?
I saw that taxi that brought you here.
Jay?
You weren't really baptized J .R., were you? Yeah, yeah.
My folks were frightened by a can of alphabet soup.
Is this going to take long?
Not much.
But really, this is a bore.
I mean, if Mr. Jones wanted to see me, why couldn't he drop by the house?
He did, he tried. About one o 'clock this afternoon, but you were out.
Shopping, I guess.
No, I was sailing most of the afternoon.
Well, it sure was a nice day for it.
Does your husband like sailing?
Not much.
Then he wasn't with you.
What Mr. Jones should have done is to call first to see if I was home.
I mean, I just don't sit around the house waiting for detectives to pop out
the blue.
What does he want?
Well, for one thing, to find out why you lied about knowing Jack Crandall.
I didn't want to lie.
Steve made me do it.
Steve.
Crandall.
Well, it really doesn't matter now.
Now that Steve's dead.
Wait a minute. What do you mean Steve is dead?
Don't you know?
He's been on the radio.
I've killed in a car accident.
No.
I haven't heard.
Please come here and fix this.
What did you mean when you said Steve made your lie?
He didn't want Mr. Jones to find out that it was him and not Jack that I
Well, I can't really say in love with.
I never really was in love with Steve.
He was just a lot of fun, that's all.
How does Jack fit in?
I asked him for help.
I needed someone Steve would listen to.
You're so insanely jealous.
Of Godfrey.
Even of Jack, as it turned out.
Now, wait a minute.
Are you saying that he thought that his own brother was making time with you?
Yes.
But I couldn't get him to believe that there was nothing between me and Jack.
He came to me the night that Jack died.
Full of wild threats.
Against you?
No, against Jack.
He said he was going to go down to the boat and settle it.
I
can't
stay, Derek.
I couldn't have done better myself.
How much do I owe you?
Oh, Derek, you're impossible.
Police have identified Steve Crandall of Los Angeles as the man who escaped
death in a freak auto accident on North Santa Carla Road.
First news of the accident came in moments ago from our mobile unit on the
scene. Crandall, the police say, owes his life to some hikers who happened
the L .A. man trapped in the wreckage of his car earlier this afternoon.
A rescue squad arrived moments later and rushed Crandall to the hospital.
where he's reported in stable condition.
Shall we go?
Yeah.
If ever I'm in need of a detective, I know who I'd call.
Yes, may I speak to Mrs. Tracy Wild? She had an appointment with Derek.
Oh, thank you.
He just left with J .R.
They're probably going directly to the motel bar.
When Jedediah calls, I'll be with Lillian Enright.
Tell him to wait.
I'll get you back to your corner as soon as we're finished.
J .R., there's something I'd like to get first before I speak with Mr.
Jones. Can it wait?
Well, it's a letter that Steve wrote after Jack died, and I think it might
him understand why he killed his brother.
Where is it?
I didn't want Godfrey to find it, so I hid it.
Please, I'll show you where.
Reno? No, Mr. Jones, you're wrong.
I haven't been to Reno in years.
The doorman downstairs said he helped you unload some bags this morning.
Charles? He drinks a lot, you know.
His description of the lady with you matches that of Selma Lawrence.
Vodka.
Charles would like you to think it's mineral water, but it's really vodka.
Miss Enright, as a rule, I don't go to the police until I'm pretty sure what's
going on, but...
Would you come here, please?
Selma, this is Barnaby Jones. He's a private detective. Miss Lawrence.
How do you do?
I'd like to ask you a few questions.
I don't have to answer any questions.
Mr. Wilde has paid for your silence for a long time, hasn't he?
Mr. Wilde has paid for my retirement, if that's what you mean.
Maybe it would have been better had you answered these questions 12 years ago at
the inquest.
Then a young man named Jack Crandall might still be alive.
I don't know anything about that.
But you do know what happened the night that David Enright was killed in that
fire. Whatever I know is between me and Godfrey Wilde and nobody else.
I understand that you were very close to Tracy after her mother died when she
was five.
Yes.
I love that child very much. Enough to protect her against anything?
Well, children always need protection.
Now that I've met you, I can see that you're not the type to take money to
or for any other reason excepting to protect Tracy.
No. No.
And that's the reason you didn't show up at the inquest? Because you couldn't
bring yourself to say that you knew that Tracy was responsible for her father's
death?
Oh, Miss Lillian.
I think I'd better call Godfrey and tell him that we're coming over to town.
Yeah, I remember it.
I read about it in an old newspaper account.
This is where you hid the letter, huh?
It's my home.
I hide everything here.
My thoughts, my dreams.
Whenever I'm in trouble, it's the only place I know.
I used to do my homework in this room.
My father would be fitting in this chair.
So long as I could turn around and see him, I knew nothing bad could ever
to me.
Look, have you got the litter?
It's upstairs.
Let me show you around first.
This is where my father died.
I was asleep when I heard him calling for help.
Asleep?
I thought the newspaper said that the fire took place a little after dark.
I came running downstairs.
Smoke was coming out from under the door.
It stopped me.
It held me back.
Selma. She was a housekeeper.
Yes.
She and Godfrey were in it together.
They both killed my father.
It was an accident.
Tracy didn't mean to do it.
She had lit some candles. The power had gone out.
The curtains caught on fire.
When her father tried to put them out, the burning curtains fell on them.
Tracy lost her head. She ran out the door, closed it, pressed herself against
it. She wouldn't even let Selma get in. She wasn't trying to stop me from saving
her father. She was just trying to close out that awful sight of burning and her
father's pain.
The fireman had it out, and David's body was being removed by the time that I
got there.
And that's when the lying started.
Right then and there.
She was in shock.
She felt that she had caused the fire. And in her panic, Patton answered her
father's cry for help.
She started blaming others.
But first it was Selma.
She even tried to poison me.
Me.
So Godfrey paid off Selma, had her safely hidden away before the inquest.
So she couldn't testify against him. Exactly.
Then he packed me off to a mental clinic, tried to have me declared
so that he could take over my inheritance.
At 12 years old?
He would have needed a guardian in any case.
Don't you see how clever he was?
He was trying to get me committed for life.
That way he would control my money forever.
Less than nine years later, you married him.
Yes. Well, I didn't realize at the time what he was after until after we were
married. Her father had been my closest friend.
So, of course, I wanted desperately to help Tracy.
How long has she been in therapy?
A little over three years.
And as she grew older, I tried my own hand at trying to break down that sense
guilt. I remember Mr. Wilde calling me on the telephone and telling me how well
the child was coming along.
And suddenly she wasn't a child anymore.
Yes.
She'd grown into a beautiful woman.
And I found I'd fallen in love with her.
Hello?
Hello, I was given this number by the doorman at Miss Enright's building. Is a
Mr. Barnaby Jones there, please?
Yes, one moment.
It's for you.
Barnaby, I haven't heard from J .R. yet. Are you sure they were coming straight
back here from the hairdressers?
Yeah, did you try to bar?
They're not there. I just went over. I'll get back to you, Betty.
Did Tracy have anything else to do today besides go to the hairdresser?
No.
Something wrong?
I had an appointment with her and J .R. to talk, and they seem to have gotten
lost.
Godfrey, if something's frightened her... Yes.
If that's so, I think I know where she'd want to be.
Come with me.
Listen, I hate to keep pushing about this, but could you please go upstairs
get the letter?
All right.
J .R.? I thought after telling you everything...
You take pity on me.
I don't want revenge.
I thought I did.
But I know now that all I want is to
go away.
Forget the past.
Help.
Help me.
Please.
There never was a letter, was there?
No.
I wanted to speak to you first.
I knew Mr.
Jones would never understand.
You heard on the radio that Steve wasn't killed.
And you don't want to face Barnaby because you'd have to explain to him why
thought he was dead.
Oh, please, please, try to understand.
Please, Godfrey told me. He told me that he pushed him off the road. He must
have thought he killed him.
Tracy, let's go.
No!
Shut up!
I'm sorry.
I don't have the gun anymore.
Tracy!
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God.
I didn't mean to hurt you.
It's all right.
Taylor followed me here. You said he wanted me.
He tried to attack me.
I never told you this before, Godfrey.
But I don't like this house.
I haven't for a very long time.
Sure.
Maybe it's time we sold it.
I think we better be going, ma 'am.
Yes, Godfrey.
You always know what's best for me.
I guess there are things you can't always protect someone from.
No matter how much you love them.
Better have that looked after, Mr. Weil.
Thank you for all your trouble, Mr. Johnson.
Well, it wouldn't be too much point in bringing her to trial, would it,
Not when she's already serving her sentence.
