[siren wailing in distance]

[indistinct chatter]

[clicks tongue]

EDDIE: Hey, hey,
hey, flag on the play!

[hip-hop playing]

So you tell me that you're broke

and I front you some product,

but now you got
money to buy from him?

[clicks tongue]

You owe me money.

You owe Leon money.

And who the hell are you?

Does Leon know you're
selling bags in his territory?

This is Leon's territory.

We all work for Leon.

You can't just blow in
here and start hustling

without getting
the nod from Leon.

Now, get your money
back and give it to me.

Give the man back his drugs.

Get your money
and give it to me.

Put your hands
above your head, man.

Come on.

How old are you?

[laughing]

Oh... Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk.

It's empty.

[clip clicks in]

So look, little man.

You... need to walk out of here

and never come back.

This is my territory now.

NEWSCASTER: The end of June,
we are almost halfway through the year,

and it's 87 degrees in
the city that never sleeps.

OFFICER: According to his ID

he's Marcus Lott. 26 years old.

Bunch of priors for
possession and distribution.

As you can see, somebody emptied

a whole lot of
ammo into Mr. Lott,

who, by the way,
had a lot of cash

and illegal drugs
in his possession.

And who is she?

Name is Karla Angel. 24.

Cause of death appears to
be a single gunshot wound

to the abdomen.

Must have been expecting a boy.

Neighbors say she worked at
the 24-hour gym up the street.

Came down here a couple
times a night to wash towels

whenever the machines
were full at the gym.

And these drug dealers...

Good news is they're
killing each other.

Bad news... not fast enough.

It's funny you should say that.

Customer from last night
said that Mr. Lott was

with a kid from
the neighborhood.

His name's, uh...
Eddie Mitchell.

Doesn't have any priors,
but everyone around here

knew he sold nickel bags
and apparently carried a gun.

[subway train rumbling]

[phone rings]

[chuckles] Hey, I remember you.

ANNA: Hi, Dad.

Hey, I've been leaving messages
for you all over the place.

I know. And I'm sorry,

I just... I got a lot going on.

Well, yeah. I mean, big
journalism scholarship,

going to Jordan for a semester.

Crazy-proud father to deal with.

You want to have dinner?

Sure. Absolutely.

Thing is, uh, I'm
about to start this case,

and I don't know which night.

Okay if I get back to you?

Sure, Dad. I just...

I want to do it soon.

I do too.

I love you.

[door buzzes]

Mr. Palmer?

Eddie Mitchell?

Convicted in 2002

of the triple murder
of Marcus Lott,

Karla Angel, and the
unborn child of Karla Angel.

You're the lawyer
from the clinic?

You're here 'cause of
the letter? Well, yeah.

We got it.

But... full disclosure...

I'm not a real lawyer.

I'm a law student.

I'm working with the Hudson
University Legal Aid clinic

as part of my studies.

My professor... Dr. Upton...
He's a real lawyer.

And, from time to time, he
chooses to take on a case

like yours, and then
students like me get to...

assist him, go to court with him

and participate in the trial.

That is, if we can win
you the right to a new trial,

which... I think we can.

[exhales sharply]

[sighs]

You okay?

[short laugh]

You know, I've
written so many letters.

To the warden, to the
D.A., to that public defender

who just sat there and
let me get convicted

in the first place.

You said you think a
witness lied during the trial?

Yeah.Now...

that was 17 years ago.
You're just realizing that now?

Well, there-there was this
lady. She was a prostitute.

And she'd be out on the
street all hours of the night.

Said she was looking
through the window

of the laundromat and
saw me shoot those people.

But I didn't shoot anybody.

So she had to be lying, right?

Yeah, uh, okay.

But again, how is this different

than 17 years ago?

Well, about three months
ago, I was out in the yard here,

and I'm talking to
this guy, Terrence.

And we're talking
about our cases,

and Terrence tells
me there's a prostitute

testified against him.

Said she saw him knife a dude.

But she couldn't have,
because he didn't do it.

And-and I asked him
what her name was,

and he said Heather Bent.

Same name as my prostitute.

Okay. Well, look,
I can understand

how that kind of coincidence
would make you suspicious,

but... that's not proof
that she was lying.

Yeah, well...

what if I told you it was
the exact same cop?

The exact same cop,

and the exact same witness.

Two different
murders. You tell me...

What are the chances?

I'm telling you,
the walls shake.

I don't want to have
this conversation, Bull.

It's my sister
we're talking about.

It's like a freight
train, Benny.

Night falls, we slip into bed,

she sleeps and I
hold on for dear life.

I looked it up.
Pregnant women snore.

That's just what they do.

But I need to sleep.

Don't look at me. I don't
know what to tell you.

Dr. Bull. Any way I could get,

uh, five minutes?

Hmm, I'm jealous.
Sounds fascinating.

I can't lie.

So far, it has been
pretty damn thrilling.

I mean, we won our motion.

We won our client
the right to a new trial.

Anyway, my professor

asked me to
second chair for him.

And I'm thinking
it's a commitment

of two, three weeks.

Of course, you
know these things.

Could be over in a day.

Anyway, I'd
really like to do it.

[knocking]

BENNY: Hey.

Bull said you got a live one.

He told you about it,
huh? Ha, ha, he sure did.

How'd you get the
judge to order a new trial?

Actually, the client
did all the heavy lifting.

He realized that he
and another inmate

were convicted based
on eyewitness testimony

from the same witness.

And then, once I
did a little digging,

the same woman testified

in five different murder trials.

Oops. Pretty damn convenient.

You gonna get her to recant?

I would if I could, but
she died a while back.

The good news is is
that the judge agreed

that it was highly probable
that the witness perjured herself.

Especially once we
realized that she testified

in five different cases
for the same detective.

Wow.

That's some pretty
flagrant misconduct.

How'd the D.A.'s
office miss this?

Cases span seven
years. Different A.D.A.s

in each case.

I'm sure they're gonna
say that it's plausible

that they had no
idea this one witness

was making the rounds.

I hear you.

Well, it's not like
my client's case

got a lot of attention.

Drug dealer guns
down another dealer

in a Bronx laundromat?

Wait a second, what's
your client's name?

Eddie Mitchell.

Seriously? Eddie Mitchell?

[chuckles]

You have been
snookered, my friend.

Eddie Mitchell's as
guilty as they come.

Killed three people, one
of them not even born yet.

That guy deserves
to be in prison.

[chuckles] You know this case?

Yeah, I know this
case. It's my case.

No.

No, it says right here that

Bradley Freeman
was the prosecutor

in Eddie's first trial.

I was second chair.

My name might not be
on that file, but I was there.

It was my first murder trial.

See, here's what you're
not getting, Chunk.

It wasn't just the
eyewitness testimony

that put Eddie away.

There's lots of
evidence against him.

Fiber from Eddie's clothing

underneath one of
the victim's fingernails.

A fight with one of the
victims earlier that evening,

witnessed by a whole
different group of people.

That young punk
moved a lot of product

through his neighborhood.

Well, be that as it may,

without the
eyewitness testimony,

I think the case against
Eddie is purely circumstantial,

and I think we can win.

And more importantly, I
believe Eddie's innocent.

Well, it's good to
believe in things.

Five cases.

Same witness, same detective.

Heard you the first time.

I don't think you've aged a day.

Valerie.

Been a long time. Ah.

Fancy suit, fancy haircut.

You've come up

[both chuckle]Please.

So, what brings
you out to a cop bar

at 2:00 in the morning?

Ooh, uh... couldn't sleep.

I had a question,
need an answer.

Eddie Mitchell?

The D.A.'s rattling
your cage too?

How 'bout we worry about
the crimes from this decade?

A-Actually, I heard about
it a different way, but, uh,

I just... I just
need to ask you.

I need you to tell me.

That was a righteous conviction,

wasn't it, Valerie?

What are you talking about?

Of course it was. Absolutely.

And-and tell me
about this woman.

This sex worker.

She testified for you, what...

Five times in five
different cases?

She was a source, Benny.

She was a streetwalker.

You walk the streets,
you see things.

I know, I know. Um...
But you wouldn't...

you wouldn't
encourage her to lie,

would you?

Help to make the
case go down easy?

What are you doing?

Are you wearing a
wire for the D.A. now?

What? Do you not remember?

[scoffs] This 16-year-old kid

was selling drugs
and carrying a gun.

It was always pretty
open-and-shut.

A-Are you worried that
someone's gonna drag you into this?

You were second chair.

You were invisible, my friend.

No one even knows
you were there.

Don't worry.

I'll take the heat for
this, which I am fine with.

'Cause I know that
conviction is just,

no matter how I got it,

'cause I know what
that little punk did.

Wait a second. Uh...

[clears throat][man

Sorry. Haven't

MAN: So, tell me
what's going on.

You ever notice that there
are babies everywhere?

Kids, kids, kids, kids.

My boss is having one.

And another...
fellow I work with...

He's got an older one.

Well, you know, it's, uh...

it's definitely
going around. Um,

what does this have
to do with you, Marissa?

I lied to my husband.

We were all set to try.

IVF. Artificial insemination.

Both got tested.

And I was terrified.

Convinced I was barren.

Does anybody say
that word anymore?

Barren? It's a horrible word.

And anyway, it turned out

that he was the one
that was... barren.

Mm-hmm.

How did he take it?

I never told him.

I lied.

Told him I changed my
mind about the whole thing.

[sighs]

Well, it's, um...
[papers shuffling]

[smacks lips]

It's kind of a sweet lie.

I know, right?

Except... Of course...

he doesn't know I lied.

I'm... I'm sorry. I'm confused.

Why are you upset and-and.

'Cause he's acting
like he hates me.

Hates you? Wh-Why
would he hate you?

For changing my mind, I guess.

He barely speaks to
me, doesn't touch me.

[doorbell rings]

[water running]

[water stops]

[door opens]

I may have misspoken last night.

Maybe I can testify for you.

Testify to what?
You weren't there.

Well, I can't just let it stand.

The victims were
shot with a Glock 19.

And we know that Eddie
had an empty Glock on him

when he went
toe-to-toe with Marcus

earlier that night.

That's funny.

I don't remember seeing that
weapon on the evidence list.

Ah. I remember now.

He threw it in the river.

My client threw
his gun in the river?

Oh, yeah. Yeah.

Cops saw him do it.

They were chasing
him at the time.

Three days after the murder.

I don't get it.

Why would he wait three days
to get rid of the murder weapon?

And why would he do it
where the police could see him?

Because, as I recall,

he didn't even know it
was a murder weapon.

He was 16 years old and he was

worrying about getting busted

for carrying an
unlicensed firearm.

I...

The public defender
actually put him on the stand.

You almost never put the accused

on the stand in a murder case.

Man, they sold him out.

We all sold him out.

Anyway.

I will get out of your hair
and let you do your work.

Hey, uh...

That professor of
yours... He any good?

Why do you ask?

That would be a no.

A no?

You guys are crazy.

No, not us guys.

This was all his idea.

17 years, Bull.

Think of everything you've
done the last 17 years.

Think-think of everything
that's happened to you

between the ages of 16 and 33.

No. I don't want
to think about that.

It is a lifetime, Bull.

And I helped steal it
from this young man.

I want to represent him.

I need to represent him.

I need to right this wrong.

What are you talking about?

I'm not even sure it's
your wrong to right.

In fact, I'm pretty damn
sure this isn't even your case.

Well, Chunk's gonna
speak to his professor. I am?

Help me, Chunk.
Tell me your professor

will never go along with this.

Oh, he'll definitely go for it.

The clinic has more
cases than it can handle.

It's me I'm worried about.

I don't want to give
up second chair.

You don't have to
give up second chair.

Like I said, I'm Team
Benny. Always was,

always will be.

Look, Bull, let's just
go meet with the guy.

Let's look him in the eye.

See how we feel about him,
see how he feels about us.

I don't understand.

I thought you and your professor
were gonna represent me.

Absolutely. If you
want the legal aid clinic

to represent you,
that is your right,

and we stand ready to do it.

But I wouldn't be asking
you to consider Mr. Colón

if I didn't think he was
the absolute best shot

you have of getting out of here.

And I'll still be on your team.

I'll be with you
every step of the way.

I know you said you were there.

I know you said you feel badly.

Truth is... I don't
even remember you.

[short chuckle]

Maybe that's a good thing.

Doesn't change the fact
that I regret what I did.

Doesn't change the fact
that I want to make it right.

You say he the best?

He is.

Well, then...
let's do this thing.

Uh, I know it's kind
of late to bring this up,

but switching sides...
It just occurred to me...

I don't think I've ever heard
of it being done before.

Ever.

So, I'm gonna go
outside and call my office

and see if we can't arrange

an appointment with
the judge this afternoon.

What for?

Because if we
really want to do this,

we're gonna need to go to
court and ask permission.

[sighs]

Somebody tell me why we're here.

Well, as you are
aware, Your Honor,

Eddie Mitchell has won
the right to a new trial

on the murder charges
brought against him in 2002.

And while that right to a new
trial was won by the attorneys

at the Hudson University
Legal Aid Clinic,

at this time,
Mr. Mitchell is requesting

that I assume the role
of his principal counsel.

We are simply seeking
the court's permission

to make that change.

And is there some reason why we
shouldn't approve such a change?

Mr. Colón is failing to
mention that in the original trial

some 17 years ago, he was
part of the prosecution team

that actually put
Mr. Mitchell away.

Fascinating omission, Mr. Colón.

I was getting to it, Your Honor.

You want to switch sides?

Never heard of such a thing.

We might be making a
little history here today, folks.

And does the current
prosecutorial team

have any reason to object?

Let's start with
Rule 1.7 and 1.11

of the American Bar Association
Rules of Professional Conduct,

which expressly
prohibit this kind of thing.

BENNY: I am aware
of that, Your Honor.

But I-I'd like to call the
A.D.A. and the court's attention

to Rule 3.8, which
implores a prosecutor,

if he or she is made
aware of a faulty conviction,

to do everything in
their power to rectify it.

And since the current
occupants of the D.A.'s office

have not seen fit

to answer
Mr. Mitchell's letters,

that duty falls to me.

Now, I believe a great
injustice has occurred.

Now, I can't give this
man back the years he lost,

but I can do
everything in my power

to see to it that
he does not spend

a day longer than
necessary in prison.

I share your sense of outrage

over what appears to
be a likely act of perjury.

If not in regard to this
case, then certainly

in one of the five others

the eyewitness in
question testified.

I'm going to allow Mr. Colón

to switch sides,
though I'm not certain

I'm doing either him
or his client a favor.

Let me be clear.[mouths]

Since the eyewitness in question

is no longer alive
and cannot testify

as to her truthfulness
or lack thereof,

mention of her or her testimony

is strictly forbidden.

Is that understood?

Yes, Your Honor.
Understood, Your Honor.

You still you want the job?

Yes, Your Honor.

Well, since this case
has been tried before,

I decided to track down
as many of the jurors

from the first trial as I
could find to try and ask them

why they found Eddie guilty.

And it seemed to them he had
a motive for killing Marcus Lott.

Lott was the competition.

TAYLOR: I was
reading the transcript,

and that original
prosecutor made Eddie

sound like a hardened criminal.

And his public defender
did nothing to counter that.

I mean, he was 16,
selling nickel bags.

Maybe making a
couple hundred a night.

Not that that's not
a crime, it's just...

hard to believe he killed
another man over that.

Most of the jurors I polled said
the main reason it was so easy

for them to believe
that Eddie was the killer

was because the defense
presented no other suspects.

Bull thinks that
our best strategy

is to find someone... anyone...

To present as an
alternative suspect.

What about that guy
Eddie worked for?

What was his name?

Leon. According to what I read,

he was in Miami with his family
when the shooting occurred.

Rock-solid alibi.

Yeah. Still.

The victim was a
drug dealer, too.

And he was the real deal,

with the rap sheet to prove it.

There must have been
someone besides Eddie

who had a beef with him.

Let me see what I can dig up
through my old vice contacts.

WILLIAMS: So you
wanted to buy some drugs,

but you knew if the
defendant saw you had money,

he wouldn't sell you anything.

He would just take the money

to cover the loans he
had already made you.

Yes, sir. So then what happened?

So then I heard there
was a new guy around,

working out of the
laundromat, so I went over.

WILLIAMS: And was he
willing to sell you drugs?

LOUIS: Sure.

And this was sometime
around 1:00 in the morning?

Yes, sir.

And while you were buying
drugs from this new dealer,

did anything of note happen?

Yeah. Eddie came in.

He was mad that this new
guy was selling on his turf,

and he was mad that
I actually had money

and was buying from someone
else instead of paying him back.

And did the two men argue? Yeah.

I mean, no one hit
anyone, but it was tense.

And then Marcus
pulled his gun on Eddie.

Put it in his face. Took
his drugs and his cash.

Now, did Eddie have a gun?

He had one with him, but,
I mean, he didn't show it.

Marcus found it.
And it was empty.

And did you see what
type of gun it was?

Yeah. [scoffs]

It was a Glock.

Are you aware that Marcus Lott

and Karla Angel were
shot with a Glock 19?

Yeah. I heard that.

Thank you, Mr. Grant.

I have no further questions
for this witness, Your Honor.

Your witness, Mr. Colón.

Thank you, Your
Honor. Mr. Grant,

uh, 17 years ago,

how would you have
described the neighborhood

where that laundromat
was located?

[scoffs] Well, I mean,

it was pretty sketchy
back then. And the night

that Marcus Lott died, you
said he was selling drugs.

Is that correct?

Yes. He was.

And when you bought
drugs from Marcus Lott,

didn't you mention
you paid in cash?

I did.

So Marcus Lott
was hanging around

in this dangerous neighborhood
with drugs and cash.

I-Isn't it possible

that maybe he was shot by

a mugger or another addict...

Someone who might
have been interested

in his drugs or cash?

Objection Your Honor.
Calls for speculation.

Sustained. The jury will
disregard the question.

BENNY: My apologies, Your Honor.

I will move on.

They never disregard a question.

Want to grab a bite before
we head back to the office?

By all means.

Uh... you know what, guys,

give me a minute. I'll meet
you guys back at the car.

Mr. and Mrs. Garcia.

Why are you
making us relive this?

Uh... Mr. and Mrs.
Garcia, believe me,

I-I would never ask you
to go through this unless...

Unless what?

17 years ago you said
that man killed my sister.

My unborn nephew.

Now you're saying
that he didn't?

You're absolutely right.

I should have reached out to
you, I should have explained

what I had discovered and
what I planned to do about it.

I apologize.

I'm deeply, deeply sorry.

But if you two have
a moment right now,

I'd be happy to
walk you through...

Walk us through what? Your
imaginary mugger theory?

Your "anybody
but Eddie" defense?

You should be
ashamed of yourself.

CHUNK: Hey, Benny, it's
almost 2:00 in the morning.

We should call it a night.

You ever look at this photo and
wonder what was going on here?

4:00 in the morning, this
girl's about to have a baby.

Look at this baby blanket,
all these baby clothes.

You think someone at work

gave her their old baby stuff?

She was thinking,

"Today is one of the
best days of my life.

Today is really something."

A couple of minutes
later, she was dead.

Baby was dead.

What the hell is
wrong with people?

I don't know, man, but...
it's getting late, Benny.

We got to be in
court at 9:00 a.m.

If Eddie didn't do this thing,

then why can't we
figure out how to prove it?

Someone else did it.
Why can't we see it?

Okay.

Call us a car.

Our side doing any better today?

No. But the good news is
we couldn't do much worse.

You know what I don't
miss about being a cop?

Did you just feel
the subject change?

I did. I don't know, Danny.

What don't you miss
about being a cop?

The uniform? No. I
looked good in that uniform.

I'll tell you what I
don't miss. Cop bars.

I don't miss cop bars.

They're just so full of... cops.

And what's wrong with cops?

I need to know this. I'm single.

Well, they all want
to buy you drinks.

That sounds fantastic.

Oh, they all want to
know where you live.

And why is that?

So they can go there with you.

Clearly, we're just
gonna have to agree

to disagree on this
one. Can you get me in?

Why were you at a cop bar?

Working my old contacts.

I found out that Eddie
wasn't the only drug dealer

that Marcus Lott
ticked off back then.

A friend of Marcus'
told Detective Cobb

that Marcus had an issue with
a dealer named George Moran.

Apparently George
here was telling

anyone who would listen
Marcus stole his stash

and that he was gonna
"put the hurt on him."

Oh... Bull is gonna
be beside himself.

This is exactly what
he was hoping for.

Well, maybe not exactly.

What do you mean?

Well, George Moran
died ten years ago.

A car hit him while
he was crossing.

Yellowstone Boulevard in Queens.

The car was never found,
the driver was never caught.

You can draw your
own conclusions.

The point is Benny
can't put him on the stand

and he can't paint
him as someone

with a motive to
kill Marcus Lott.

At least, not with the
evidence that we have.

TAYLOR: Six foot, three.

That's a lot of guy.

It sure is. Danny,
how tall is Eddie?

Five, eight. Five, nine, tops.

Why?

[elevator bell chimes]

We thought it was
the three of you.

We've got something
we want to show you.

So, Marissa had this great idea

that maybe we could
use Eddie's height

to prove that he couldn't
have been the killer.

So I did a 3-D model
of the crime scene.

Now, based on the
trajectory of the shots

and the angle of
the bullet wounds,

the computer seems to feel
that our shooter was most likely

between five,
eight and five, ten.

What am I missing?
That sounds like Eddie.

Great, so I'm gonna be
in a coma on my couch.

Oh, oh, not so fast.

But then we took another
look at the blood splatter reports

and Taylor put them
into the computer model

and we realized something
didn't make sense.

What didn't make sense?

Well, there was blood
all over Karla's back.

Yeah? So? MARISSA:
So, at Danny's suggestion,

Taylor added in motion
so we could work backward

and make sense
of the blood splatter.

That's obviously
supposed to be Karla Angel.

DANNY: And as you can see,

Karla was shot at very
close range, in the stomach.

I don't get it. Why'd you
have the guy shot her first?

Shh. It's... DANNY: All right.

Let's say this is Marcus Lott.

And let's assume that he
came out of this doorway here,

which is the bathroom, and that
he was surprised by the shooter.

TAYLOR: Now, here's
what we figured out.

Based on where Marcus's
body was found, but also...

based on the blood splatter
found on Karla's back...

Yeah?

Karla would have
had to have been down

before Marcus got shot.

Ah.

Because how else would
the blood have gotten there?

So you think Karla
Angel was shot first?

It's the only thing
that makes sense.

Think about it.

None of Karla's
blood was on Marcus,

which is why we can assume
that he was still in the bathroom

when she got shot.

So Karla wasn't just collateral
damage like everyone assumed?

You're suggesting she
was the primary target?

Well, that sure as hell
shoots the prosecutor's theory

about Eddie out of the water.

Uh, Eddie didn't have
a motive for killing Karla.

He didn't even know Karla.

Great. So now all we
have to do is find someone

between five,
eight and five, ten

who wanted to kill Karla Angel.

Preferably before tomorrow.

[knocking]

Good morning, Mr. Garcia.

I apologize for knocking
on your door so early.

There's been a development
in the case, and I was hoping

that I could speak
to your wife about it.

What are you talking about?
What kind of development?

Well, we've uncovered
some evidence

indicating that
your wife's sister

might actually
have been the target

the night of the killings.

[scoffs quietly]

I know.

Seems kind of...
out of the blue.

No, it seems kind of crazy.

That makes no sense.

Everybody loved Karla.
Who would want to kill Karla?

You'll say anything to
get that killer out of jail.

No, Mr. Garcia... Get
away from my door.

[lock clicks]

Come on, Eddie. That
laundromat was your turf.

You had to be there
pretty much every night.

We know Karla was there

at least three nights a
week washing towels.

And she didn't talk to
anybody, nobody talked to her?

Well, she was on her cell
phone most of the time.

I mean, I remember
because at first I thought

maybe she was
calling the cops on me.

But then I realized she
was smiling, giggling.

Saying "I love you,"
talking about "our baby this,"

"our baby that."

Talking to her
boyfriend, I guess.

Boyfriend? No.

I went through all the
witness statements last night.

Her sister said Karla
didn't have a boyfriend.

Said that the baby was the
result of a one-night stand.

You said you were

reviewing the
case files last night.

You didn't happen to see.

Karla's phone records
in there, did you?

[gavel bangs]

BENNY: Mr. Garcia,
can you please

tell the jury the exact
nature of your relationship

with the victim, Karla Angel?

Sure.

She was my wife's sister.

My sister-in-law.

Anything else?

What do you mean?

I don't know. I mean,
other than that?

Did you two ever do
anything special together?

Maybe just by yourselves?

Without your wife?

Play cards? Go to the movies?

Make love?

[gallery murmuring]

[gavel bangs]

VOLK: Order, please.

Don't make me
clear the courtroom.

BENNY: Mr. Garcia...

would you please look at these

and tell me if you recognize

any of the highlighted numbers.

This is the phone
number for my house.

Karla was always
calling my wife.

They were sisters.
They were very close.

Thank you, Mr. Garcia,
but, eh, look again.

As you can see, a great
number of these calls

were made after 9:00 PM.

And isn't it true that your
wife worked the night shift?

As a nurse?

Yes.

So explain this to me.

If your wife was at work,

who was Karla talking to?

At your house? Every
night? For... hmm...

46 minutes... an
hour and 12 minutes...

over two hours?

Me.

Karla was talking to me.

[gallery murmuring]

I'm sorry.

[gavel bangs]

BENNY: Thank you, Mr. Garcia.

You didn't want
to hurt your wife,

and we understand that.

But could that be the reason

why you killed her sister?

Your sister-in-law?

[gallery murmuring]Because
you didn't want Mrs. Garcia

to know that she was
carrying your child?

[murmuring grows
louder][gavel bangs]

Mr. Colón, you are
way out of bounds.

Fair warning...

Next time I'm citing
you for contempt.

I apologize, Your Honor.

Let me wrap this up.

Isn't it true, Mr. Garcia,

that you purchased a Glock 19...

The same type of gun used

to kill Karla Angel
and Marcus Lott...

A year prior to the murders?

I bought it for my wife.
She worked nights.

It was a bad neighborhood.

I wanted her to be
able to protect herself.

But as God is my
witness, I didn't kill Karla.

I couldn't kill Karla.

I loved Karla.

One last question.

Can you actually account
for your whereabouts

on the night in question?

I was in a motel in Maryland.

How did we not know that?

I'd driven my son to the
Naval Academy the day before.

My wife called me
that morning, right after

the police called her.

Karla... and the baby were dead.

[sniffles]

I wasn't there for Karla.

I wasn't there for
my wife. [sniffles]

I wasn't there for anyone.

How do we not know that?

Mm.

Okay... walk me
through this again.

Based on what I saw,

Isaac seemed pretty
convinced his wife knew nothing

about his affair. But...

his wife's reaction...
There was no shock.

No surprise.

Just fear and anger.

You think she
would really do that?

Kill her own sister over a man?

We need to put
Maria on the stand.

Yeah, I get it.

I just wish we had something.

Anything to actually tie
her to the crime scene.

Hey, what if we're wrong

about these clothes?

BENNY: What are
you talking about?

CHUCK: Uh, the
gifts. The baby clothes.

What if she didn't get
them from people at work?

BENNY: I don't know.

What difference does that make?

Might make all the difference.

This is your son's
baby blanket, isn't it?

Yeah? Is that your,
uh, son's initials?

WMG... William Michael Garcia?

Right there in
the corner, right?

Yes.

That looks like
my son's blanket.

Now take a look at this photo.

See all the baby
clothes on the floor?

Gift bag there on the side?

You give these
to your sister too?

Maybe. I... I don't know why.

It was 17 years ago.

Well... you mean
you don't remember?

[chuckling]: I mean, it
was 4:00 in the morning,

for goodness' sake.

How often do you
go to the laundromat

at 4:00 in the morning?

Mrs. Garcia, you see where
I'm going with this, right?

Your marriage is falling apart.
Your son was leaving home.

You just got off of work.
You didn't want to be alone

in an empty house,
so you wanted to talk

to the person you
trusted most in the world.

You wanted to
talk to your sister.

Isn't that right?

I guess. So,

you put this bag
together of baby things,

and she told you to meet
her in the laundromat.

Again, it was 17 years ago.

But when you gave
Karla that blanket...

That blanket, your
baby's blanket...

She must've felt
incredibly guilty.

I mean, after all,

she was carrying
your husband's child.

Objection. Is the attorney
gonna ask a question?

Ask a question, Mr. Colón.

She told you about
the affair, didn't she?

She told me she loved him.

She said she loved Isaac.

And then she told you she
was carrying Isaac's baby,

didn't she?

I mean, your baby
was leaving home,

and she was coming to
take your husband, too.

So you pulled out your gun
and you killed your sister.

Didn't you?

And you let that
innocent man go to prison

for 17 years.

[sobbing continuing]

Congratulations, Eddie.

Very happy for you.

Uh, thank you.

All of you.

Wish I could somehow

give you back those 17 years.

Uh, it's okay.

You gave me back the next 40.

Least I could do.

Well, so now that
you're a free man,

what's the first thing
you're gonna do?

[chuckles] Uh, truthfully?

I think I just want
to walk around.

Just walk around

and not have somebody
tell me it's time to get up,

time for lights
out, time to eat,

time to shower, just...

walk around.

As long as I want.

Well, when you
are done doing that,

I know the city gave
you a check for $3,700...

The money you made
when you were behind bars...

But... I hope you
will come and see us,

so we can refer
you to an attorney

who will help you sue
for wrongful imprisonment.

And I would love
to put you in touch

with some folks who might...

help you get reacquainted
with the world.

Maybe help you find some work.

You know, actually, right now...

I really just want to walk.

But thank you.

As you wish.

You guys mind if I...

I've been trying to set up a
dinner with my daughter for...

This is the first free night I
have in a long time, and...

I would... Go, go, go.

Okay. Thanks, Benny.

[yawns]

Ah, Benny. [grunts]

Thanks for letting me do this.

Oh, come on.

Benny!

From me to you.

Okay, I give up.

You see,

you put 'em in your ears
whenever Izzy snores.

Just don't tell her I
gave them to you.

Thank you, Uncle Benny.

Don't ever say I never
gave you anything.

You never gave me anything.

Ah, you're so predictable.
