Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:00,793 --> 00:00:03,754
Narrator: In the criminal justice
system, the people are represented
2
00:00:03,921 --> 00:00:06,382
by two separate yet
equally important groups…
3
00:00:06,549 --> 00:00:08,259
The police who
investigate crime,
4
00:00:08,426 --> 00:00:11,178
and the district attorneys
who prosecute the offenders.
5
00:00:11,345 --> 00:00:13,097
These are their stories.
6
00:00:14,265 --> 00:00:16,767
Upstairs neighbor
complained about the smell.
7
00:00:16,934 --> 00:00:19,937
Don't worry, Max. It's
just three more flights.
8
00:00:22,023 --> 00:00:24,233
Didn't somebody
find the coffee yet?
9
00:00:24,400 --> 00:00:26,360
Max: Whew.
10
00:00:35,536 --> 00:00:37,204
Yo, Profaci!
11
00:00:41,459 --> 00:00:43,127
Hey, Mikey.
12
00:00:48,299 --> 00:00:51,218
Holland, Bobby. 26, 27?
13
00:00:51,385 --> 00:00:53,846
Shot in the back of the
head. Probably two days.
14
00:00:54,013 --> 00:00:56,682
Ask me, it was
probably a dealer.
15
00:00:58,517 --> 00:01:01,187
Weapon? Still looking.
16
00:01:01,353 --> 00:01:03,981
Who shoots in the
head besides dealers?
17
00:01:05,066 --> 00:01:06,734
A robber who gets surprised?
18
00:01:06,901 --> 00:01:09,403
A burglar so surprised…
19
00:01:09,570 --> 00:01:12,615
he leaves behind a full wallet?
20
00:02:38,075 --> 00:02:40,119
Man: It needs a paint job.
21
00:02:40,286 --> 00:02:43,998
The guy's dead. If they had
a decent door downstairs.
22
00:02:44,165 --> 00:02:46,125
I'm below him. In 2A.
23
00:02:46,292 --> 00:02:47,585
Did you ever talk to him?
24
00:02:47,751 --> 00:02:49,753
He listened to sad music.
25
00:02:49,920 --> 00:02:52,423
Piano stuff. Gershwin.
26
00:02:52,590 --> 00:02:55,593
Left early. Came home late.
27
00:02:55,759 --> 00:02:57,595
You see anybody with
him Saturday night?
28
00:02:57,761 --> 00:02:59,972
Saturday night, about 1:30
29
00:03:00,139 --> 00:03:01,849
I'm coming back from
Symphony Space.
30
00:03:02,016 --> 00:03:03,684
This guy tears past me.
31
00:03:03,851 --> 00:03:05,477
You get a good look at him?
32
00:03:05,644 --> 00:03:08,480
1:00 a.m., guy goes running
down the steps in this city?
33
00:03:08,647 --> 00:03:10,024
I've learned not to look.
34
00:03:12,651 --> 00:03:15,654
Brownstones, they're
invitations to get robbed.
35
00:03:15,821 --> 00:03:17,489
How many sets of
prints have you got?
36
00:03:17,656 --> 00:03:19,909
I've got partials from
about a dozen people.
37
00:03:20,075 --> 00:03:21,952
It's what you'd expect.
38
00:03:22,119 --> 00:03:23,829
Unless somebody
wiped the place down.
39
00:03:23,996 --> 00:03:25,998
You run them? No match.
40
00:03:26,165 --> 00:03:28,000
None of his friends had records.
41
00:03:28,167 --> 00:03:30,336
Neither did he.
42
00:03:30,502 --> 00:03:32,004
Man: What'd they used to say?
43
00:03:32,171 --> 00:03:34,131
"Live fast, die young,
44
00:03:34,298 --> 00:03:35,925
leave a beautiful corpse."
45
00:03:36,091 --> 00:03:39,011
Whoever shot this one,
didn't care about beautiful.
46
00:03:39,178 --> 00:03:40,846
You should have
seen the apartment.
47
00:03:41,013 --> 00:03:42,723
It was more trashed
than the victim.
48
00:03:42,890 --> 00:03:44,934
Not to boil your coffee
or anything, but…
49
00:03:45,100 --> 00:03:47,853
a guy fights with a burglar.
50
00:03:48,020 --> 00:03:49,855
He gets banged up.
51
00:03:50,022 --> 00:03:51,357
Not the late Mr. Holland.
52
00:03:51,523 --> 00:03:54,026
Not a bruise, not a mark,
not a scratch on the body,
53
00:03:54,193 --> 00:03:57,488
just a nice, clean
.38 entrance wound.
54
00:03:57,655 --> 00:03:59,698
Close range? A foot,
maybe 18 inches.
55
00:03:59,865 --> 00:04:01,825
Powder burns, stippling.
56
00:04:01,992 --> 00:04:04,245
Check both hands? They're clean.
57
00:04:04,411 --> 00:04:06,622
Not a trace of powder.
The guy didn't shoot himself.
58
00:04:06,789 --> 00:04:08,666
That's dead certain.
59
00:04:14,296 --> 00:04:16,215
Mrs. Holland:
Bobby was big. He…
60
00:04:16,382 --> 00:04:19,677
When he was born he
was over 1 1 pounds.
61
00:04:20,719 --> 00:04:23,055
He was… he's always been big.
62
00:04:24,515 --> 00:04:25,599
They…
63
00:04:25,766 --> 00:04:29,061
Don't attack big people.
I read it in "The Post."
64
00:04:31,939 --> 00:04:34,191
Could you tell us
about your son's friends,
65
00:04:34,358 --> 00:04:36,610
places he used to hang out?
66
00:04:39,154 --> 00:04:40,572
He… he…
67
00:04:40,739 --> 00:04:43,117
He kept to himself… a lot.
68
00:04:43,284 --> 00:04:45,661
He didn't have a lot of friends.
69
00:04:47,579 --> 00:04:49,456
I should go get his mail.
70
00:04:51,917 --> 00:04:53,919
Bobby have any… brothers?
71
00:04:54,086 --> 00:04:54,962
Sisters?
72
00:04:57,798 --> 00:05:00,718
After Bobby, we
didn't have anymore.
73
00:05:04,096 --> 00:05:05,931
He was a very difficult birth.
74
00:05:06,098 --> 00:05:07,933
I'm… I had…
75
00:05:08,100 --> 00:05:10,060
Well, there was just…
76
00:05:10,227 --> 00:05:12,354
I've no more children.
77
00:05:15,441 --> 00:05:17,234
And now we've lost him.
78
00:05:17,401 --> 00:05:21,405
Mr. Holland: We lost him
when he moved over the bridge.
79
00:05:32,291 --> 00:05:34,460
Max: Personal possessions.
80
00:05:34,626 --> 00:05:37,379
Things they found on him
when he was brought in.
81
00:05:37,546 --> 00:05:39,757
Would you sign for them, please?
82
00:05:39,923 --> 00:05:41,759
Took the watch, huh?
83
00:05:41,925 --> 00:05:44,136
An Omega, big heavy job.
84
00:05:44,303 --> 00:05:46,138
Steel.
85
00:05:46,305 --> 00:05:49,183
High school graduation,
it cost me a week's pay.
86
00:05:50,517 --> 00:05:51,685
The band?
87
00:05:51,852 --> 00:05:53,687
It had links. Tight.
88
00:05:53,854 --> 00:05:57,566
Steel, too. He wore it
to work without worry.
89
00:05:59,610 --> 00:06:02,571
When he first moved to
the city I bought him a gun.
90
00:06:03,822 --> 00:06:06,408
A pistol? A .38, it was licensed.
91
00:06:06,575 --> 00:06:08,327
I told him, "Keep
it next to the bed."
92
00:06:08,494 --> 00:06:10,662
Why didn't he defend himself?
93
00:06:11,955 --> 00:06:13,665
You got a big tough
guy, big enough
94
00:06:13,832 --> 00:06:15,667
to toss most people
around like a pillow.
95
00:06:15,834 --> 00:06:18,003
There's always somebody bigger.
96
00:06:18,170 --> 00:06:20,089
The apartment
looked like Beirut.
97
00:06:20,255 --> 00:06:22,174
And our vic, not
a bruise or a cut.
98
00:06:22,341 --> 00:06:25,010
You fight with a crackhead,
you'll get hit, something.
99
00:06:25,177 --> 00:06:27,679
A bullet in the head
is not something?
100
00:06:27,846 --> 00:06:30,140
How'd the perp
get in? Fire escape.
101
00:06:30,307 --> 00:06:32,434
Nope. One door, no fire escape.
102
00:06:32,601 --> 00:06:34,853
Then, maybe we're
talking about a friend here.
103
00:06:35,020 --> 00:06:37,147
A friend with a grudge?
You got something better?
104
00:06:37,314 --> 00:06:41,068
Maybe you should go out, shake up
the ground a little, see who he knew.
105
00:06:44,154 --> 00:06:46,281
Workman: Drop that rope!
106
00:06:46,448 --> 00:06:49,326
Mark it down-side off.
107
00:06:50,869 --> 00:06:52,913
Whoa, whoa, whoa!
Right there! Hold up!
108
00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:55,707
I hope to God
you get who did it.
109
00:06:55,874 --> 00:06:58,293
Bobby was a good man.
110
00:06:58,460 --> 00:07:00,087
Women problems?
111
00:07:00,254 --> 00:07:02,297
Bobby didn't cat around.
112
00:07:03,298 --> 00:07:05,259
Gamble?
113
00:07:05,426 --> 00:07:07,136
Not even a football pool.
114
00:07:07,302 --> 00:07:09,888
Bobby Holland
hang out after work?
115
00:07:10,055 --> 00:07:11,849
Didn't even come
to union meetings.
116
00:07:12,015 --> 00:07:14,435
Mr. Massacio, come on, he must
have hung out with somebody.
117
00:07:14,601 --> 00:07:16,270
Go ask Suarez…
118
00:07:16,437 --> 00:07:18,689
Angel. Sometimes
they had lunch together.
119
00:07:18,856 --> 00:07:20,107
Thanks.
120
00:07:24,736 --> 00:07:27,030
Angel Suarez?
121
00:07:27,197 --> 00:07:29,575
Detective Logan.
Sergeant Greevey.
122
00:07:33,704 --> 00:07:35,581
I already heard about Bobby.
123
00:07:35,747 --> 00:07:37,124
Were you a friend of his?
124
00:07:38,375 --> 00:07:41,295
I knew him. Real broken up, huh?
125
00:07:41,462 --> 00:07:43,255
If I knew who did
him I'd let you know.
126
00:07:43,422 --> 00:07:44,715
Where were you Saturday night?
127
00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:49,178
In San Juan,
visiting my parents.
128
00:07:49,344 --> 00:07:51,472
I got back Sunday night.
129
00:07:53,348 --> 00:07:54,892
You want to see my plane ticket?
130
00:07:56,602 --> 00:07:58,437
We're talking murder, here.
131
00:07:59,897 --> 00:08:02,483
Look, the night Bobby
got it he was having a drink
132
00:08:02,649 --> 00:08:05,652
with a friend… Lois Rivera.
133
00:08:05,819 --> 00:08:09,781
She has a gourmet sandwich
cart on the Upper West Side.
134
00:08:09,948 --> 00:08:12,242
If you guys find the killer
135
00:08:12,409 --> 00:08:15,496
and wanna save the state
the price of a trial, gimme a call.
136
00:08:20,709 --> 00:08:22,127
Thanks.
137
00:08:22,294 --> 00:08:24,630
That night, before
I met my sister,
138
00:08:24,796 --> 00:08:26,757
I had a drink with Bobby.
139
00:08:28,258 --> 00:08:30,135
We talked a while
about nothing really.
140
00:08:30,302 --> 00:08:32,721
I just told him he
should go back to school.
141
00:08:32,888 --> 00:08:35,098
City College, part-time.
142
00:08:35,265 --> 00:08:37,726
Bobby was real smart.
143
00:08:38,936 --> 00:08:41,313
He knew a lot about music.
He read a lot of books.
144
00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:43,232
Anybody want to hurt him?
145
00:08:46,193 --> 00:08:48,737
No. Nobody I could think of.
146
00:08:48,904 --> 00:08:51,198
Where'd he go after he left you?
147
00:08:54,785 --> 00:08:56,620
It's Lois, right?
148
00:08:56,787 --> 00:08:57,955
Listen.
149
00:08:58,121 --> 00:09:00,916
Somebody blew your
boyfriend's brains out
150
00:09:01,083 --> 00:09:03,001
with a .38, okay?
151
00:09:05,254 --> 00:09:08,632
He went to a bar
downtown, Paradise Lost.
152
00:09:13,053 --> 00:09:16,473
Look, I really
wasn't Bobby's girl.
153
00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:18,809
Just a good friend.
154
00:09:24,815 --> 00:09:26,775
Bobby was gay.
155
00:09:33,115 --> 00:09:35,325
You couldn't miss the
guy. Logan: Why not?
156
00:09:35,492 --> 00:09:38,370
The kind of crowd we get.
You know, average guys.
157
00:09:38,537 --> 00:09:41,498
Construction workers.
Grad students from NYU.
158
00:09:41,665 --> 00:09:43,500
Easy mix. Neighborhood.
159
00:09:43,667 --> 00:09:46,128
So here's this character
dressed kind of charivari.
160
00:09:46,295 --> 00:09:48,005
Black t-shirt, gray silk jacket.
161
00:09:48,171 --> 00:09:50,173
You know the look,
"I'm cool and you're not."
162
00:09:50,340 --> 00:09:52,175
You ever seen him
with Holland before?
163
00:09:52,342 --> 00:09:55,262
Bobby doesn't
come in a lot, lately,
164
00:09:55,429 --> 00:09:58,307
more like after
work for a Michelob.
165
00:09:58,473 --> 00:10:00,434
The silk jacket and Bobby
166
00:10:00,601 --> 00:10:02,561
were sitting over there.
167
00:10:02,728 --> 00:10:05,480
Couldn't hear them,
then they were gone.
168
00:10:07,399 --> 00:10:09,818
Silk jacket… Want
to know the truth?
169
00:10:09,985 --> 00:10:11,903
I thought he was a hustler.
170
00:10:12,070 --> 00:10:16,074
Something about
him. I don't know.
171
00:10:18,869 --> 00:10:21,163
I don't know.
172
00:10:22,539 --> 00:10:24,583
Logan: So he was rough trade.
173
00:10:24,750 --> 00:10:26,293
So they do their thing.
174
00:10:26,460 --> 00:10:28,920
Mr. Silk Jacket does it all.
175
00:10:29,087 --> 00:10:31,381
Sex. Kills the guy.
Then trashes the place
176
00:10:31,548 --> 00:10:32,883
looking for something to take.
177
00:10:33,050 --> 00:10:36,011
Yeah, and the
odds on finding him?
178
00:10:36,178 --> 00:10:39,765
About as good as finding
true love at Paradise Lost.
179
00:10:39,931 --> 00:10:42,184
Max: I don't know.
His parents, his boss,
180
00:10:42,351 --> 00:10:44,394
his coworkers, his neighbors…
181
00:10:44,561 --> 00:10:46,355
No one knew this guy was gay.
182
00:10:46,521 --> 00:10:48,523
They're out there, I
don't see them either.
183
00:10:48,690 --> 00:10:52,527
Think a lot of cops
are gay? No way, man.
184
00:10:52,694 --> 00:10:54,488
Department's got a special test.
185
00:10:54,655 --> 00:10:57,074
They look you in the
eye, if your left eye blinks
186
00:10:57,240 --> 00:10:59,576
before your right eye
they know you're gay.
187
00:11:05,582 --> 00:11:07,751
They say one in 10, Max.
188
00:11:07,918 --> 00:11:10,295
That's a lot. They just fade in.
189
00:11:11,505 --> 00:11:14,925
Silk Jacket? Five to one
he's not in any of these.
190
00:11:15,092 --> 00:11:17,135
Good news and bad news.
191
00:11:17,302 --> 00:11:20,555
The good news is somebody
just walked in and confessed?
192
00:11:20,722 --> 00:11:23,266
The good news is
they found the gun.
193
00:11:23,433 --> 00:11:25,102
Empty lot, six blocks away.
194
00:11:25,268 --> 00:11:26,395
Bad news, wiped clean.
195
00:11:26,561 --> 00:11:28,772
Registration? You're
gonna love this.
196
00:11:28,939 --> 00:11:31,191
Your vic, Bobby Holland.
197
00:11:31,358 --> 00:11:33,402
Terrific.
198
00:11:40,867 --> 00:11:43,495
Bobby was always
popular with the girls.
199
00:11:43,662 --> 00:11:45,831
He was a halfback
on the football team.
200
00:11:45,997 --> 00:11:49,376
He was on the student
council. He was king of the prom.
201
00:11:50,460 --> 00:11:52,713
He hid his magazines
under the mattress.
202
00:11:52,879 --> 00:11:54,840
"Playboy."
203
00:11:56,800 --> 00:11:59,261
My son was not homosexual!
204
00:12:07,185 --> 00:12:10,355
She knows. She
just can't admit it.
205
00:12:10,522 --> 00:12:13,066
Can you? Bobby had
everything going for him.
206
00:12:13,233 --> 00:12:15,193
Any girl he wanted.
207
00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:17,696
His friends would come
over, hang out in the yard…
208
00:12:17,863 --> 00:12:19,656
Just to be around him.
209
00:12:19,823 --> 00:12:22,159
Have him throw
the football, like that.
210
00:12:23,326 --> 00:12:26,037
When he dropped his
high school girlfriend…
211
00:12:28,290 --> 00:12:30,500
Beauty. She was a beauty.
212
00:12:30,667 --> 00:12:32,169
Gorgeous.
213
00:12:32,335 --> 00:12:34,504
He moved to Manhattan.
214
00:12:37,007 --> 00:12:39,176
I go to visit him in the city.
215
00:12:39,342 --> 00:12:42,471
Sometimes… I…
216
00:12:42,637 --> 00:12:44,347
I just stare.
217
00:12:44,514 --> 00:12:47,517
He looked like everybody else.
218
00:12:47,684 --> 00:12:49,603
He talked like everybody else.
219
00:12:49,770 --> 00:12:52,355
Max: Do you know if he
brought people home a lot?
220
00:12:52,522 --> 00:12:54,107
I told him,
221
00:12:54,274 --> 00:12:56,693
"You don't know what
kind of nuts you're meeting.
222
00:12:56,860 --> 00:12:58,862
There's all kinds
of loonies out there."
223
00:12:59,029 --> 00:13:01,907
That's… that's when
I bought him the gun.
224
00:13:02,073 --> 00:13:03,909
Logan: What about boyfriends?
225
00:13:04,075 --> 00:13:05,786
He ever tell you anything
about any of them?
226
00:13:05,952 --> 00:13:08,997
What'd I want to hear?
Want to rub my nose in it?
227
00:13:14,544 --> 00:13:16,713
He mentioned one guy.
228
00:13:18,715 --> 00:13:20,467
A… Angel.
229
00:13:23,053 --> 00:13:25,388
Angel… somebody.
230
00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:32,604
Denny Massacio in there,
what do you think he'd say,
231
00:13:32,771 --> 00:13:36,024
you told him Bobby was
gay? Or that you are?
232
00:13:36,191 --> 00:13:38,485
He'd never believe
it. He'd laugh.
233
00:13:38,652 --> 00:13:40,237
And that's how I want it.
234
00:13:40,403 --> 00:13:42,697
What about you
and Bobby Holland?
235
00:13:44,866 --> 00:13:46,535
I used to hate being gay.
236
00:13:46,701 --> 00:13:48,703
I used to make fag
jokes all the time.
237
00:13:48,870 --> 00:13:50,789
You know, the way blacks
call each other nigger?
238
00:13:51,122 --> 00:13:54,668
Anyway, Bobby would
never let me get away with it.
239
00:13:54,835 --> 00:13:57,337
I was in love with Bobby.
240
00:13:59,631 --> 00:14:01,383
So you take a
weekend out of town,
241
00:14:01,550 --> 00:14:03,593
and he picks up
somebody else, huh?
242
00:14:03,760 --> 00:14:07,097
Six, eight weeks ago he
started seeing somebody new.
243
00:14:08,682 --> 00:14:10,267
We were over.
244
00:14:10,433 --> 00:14:13,603
I don't know what this guy had
for him, but they met at the gym.
245
00:14:13,770 --> 00:14:16,398
You know his name? He lives
somewhere on the East Side.
246
00:14:16,565 --> 00:14:18,441
Jack.
247
00:14:18,608 --> 00:14:20,485
I don't know his last name.
248
00:14:23,321 --> 00:14:25,949
Gray silk jacket named Jack.
249
00:14:26,116 --> 00:14:27,784
Great.
250
00:14:27,951 --> 00:14:29,661
A bullet to the head.
251
00:14:29,828 --> 00:14:31,538
This case, I heard
about it before.
252
00:14:31,705 --> 00:14:32,956
What are you a psychic now?
253
00:14:33,123 --> 00:14:34,958
A month ago, maybe two.
254
00:14:35,125 --> 00:14:36,835
The same kind of killing.
255
00:14:37,002 --> 00:14:38,753
Gay bashing? I read about it.
256
00:14:38,920 --> 00:14:41,798
"Time," "Newsweek," last
week or the week before.
257
00:14:44,426 --> 00:14:47,470
You sure you didn't read
about this in your dreams?
258
00:14:47,637 --> 00:14:49,723
"California."
259
00:14:49,890 --> 00:14:52,392
"Redwoods."
260
00:14:52,559 --> 00:14:54,561
"Michelle Pfeiffer."
261
00:14:56,187 --> 00:14:58,189
One of them interests you.
262
00:14:58,356 --> 00:15:00,317
"Earthquakes."
263
00:15:01,735 --> 00:15:04,362
And murder.
264
00:15:08,658 --> 00:15:10,619
Max: No prints here either.
265
00:15:13,330 --> 00:15:16,082
Gun was found in an
empty lot, wiped clean.
266
00:15:16,249 --> 00:15:18,251
Burglary?
267
00:15:20,128 --> 00:15:21,838
Uh-huh.
268
00:15:23,298 --> 00:15:24,799
Ripped the place apart.
269
00:15:24,966 --> 00:15:27,302
A week later, another
one just like it in LA.
270
00:15:30,221 --> 00:15:32,432
The vic's address book?
271
00:15:33,433 --> 00:15:35,226
Can you fax it?
272
00:15:35,393 --> 00:15:38,355
212-555-8342.
273
00:15:42,108 --> 00:15:43,526
Yeah, all right.
274
00:15:43,693 --> 00:15:45,654
Thanks.
275
00:15:47,072 --> 00:15:48,573
He's faxing it.
276
00:15:48,740 --> 00:15:51,242
Call Sheriff's Homicide in LA.
277
00:15:51,409 --> 00:15:54,663
Lead investigator's
name is Sam White.
278
00:15:56,998 --> 00:15:59,125
They're not as
friendly in Los Angeles.
279
00:15:59,292 --> 00:16:01,044
Too much sun makes 'em crazy.
280
00:16:01,211 --> 00:16:03,254
Am I sure it's a similar case?
281
00:16:03,421 --> 00:16:06,508
I'm as sure as I can be,
not looking at the bodies.
282
00:16:06,675 --> 00:16:08,843
Right.
283
00:16:09,010 --> 00:16:10,387
Mm-hmm.
284
00:16:10,553 --> 00:16:12,389
The victim had no address book.
285
00:16:12,555 --> 00:16:14,724
Just a lot of phone
numbers on scraps of paper.
286
00:16:14,891 --> 00:16:16,267
Copies?
287
00:16:16,434 --> 00:16:19,229
Oh, an open homicide
investigation?!
288
00:16:19,396 --> 00:16:21,898
What do you think we're
doing, getting cats out of trees?
289
00:16:22,065 --> 00:16:25,068
Look, we link the victims,
we got a case, okay?
290
00:16:25,235 --> 00:16:27,445
Now if you can just send us…
291
00:16:27,612 --> 00:16:30,490
Nobody's asking
for the originals!
292
00:16:30,657 --> 00:16:33,410
Just fax us whatever
you got, okay?
293
00:16:33,576 --> 00:16:36,746
What? Fax you, okay?
294
00:16:38,873 --> 00:16:40,291
"In an open investigation
295
00:16:40,458 --> 00:16:42,919
we do not release evidence
under any circumstances."
296
00:16:43,086 --> 00:16:45,380
You know how some people
gotta give you a hard time
297
00:16:45,547 --> 00:16:47,298
just to feel like they're alive.
298
00:16:47,465 --> 00:16:49,926
Let's give 'em a hard time back.
299
00:16:50,093 --> 00:16:52,929
Look, do they want
an arrest or what?
300
00:16:53,388 --> 00:16:55,515
You put the fire out
and I'll settle this thing.
301
00:16:55,682 --> 00:16:58,351
Yes. Yes, Captain. Mm-hmm.
302
00:16:58,518 --> 00:17:01,604
Yeah, if it's their collar.
303
00:17:01,771 --> 00:17:03,523
Of course we understand.
304
00:17:03,690 --> 00:17:05,942
Detective Logan has…
305
00:17:06,109 --> 00:17:08,695
been under a little
pressure on this case.
306
00:17:08,862 --> 00:17:10,780
Pressure?
307
00:17:10,947 --> 00:17:14,325
Yes, yes, we would
appreciate that very much.
308
00:17:15,952 --> 00:17:16,703
A courier?
309
00:17:19,289 --> 00:17:21,291
Well, the city is
bankrupt, but…
310
00:17:21,458 --> 00:17:23,710
yes, I think we could
"spring" for a courier.
311
00:17:24,127 --> 00:17:25,712
Uh-huh. Yeah.
312
00:17:25,879 --> 00:17:28,214
No, no, no. Thank you, Captain.
313
00:17:28,381 --> 00:17:29,799
You believe that?
314
00:17:29,966 --> 00:17:32,594
They don't want to lose
even a copy of this stuff.
315
00:17:32,761 --> 00:17:34,179
What's with them?
316
00:17:34,846 --> 00:17:36,014
You know, fellas,
317
00:17:36,181 --> 00:17:38,308
at what this courier is
going to cost the city,
318
00:17:38,475 --> 00:17:40,351
I hope this works.
319
00:17:43,146 --> 00:17:45,148
Logan: You can cross out
320
00:17:45,315 --> 00:17:47,442
Jack E. In San Francisco.
321
00:17:47,609 --> 00:17:50,111
He still lives there,
hasn't left town.
322
00:17:52,280 --> 00:17:55,950
That's all the
Johns, Jays, Jacks.
323
00:17:56,117 --> 00:17:58,787
All the last names
with no first initials.
324
00:17:58,953 --> 00:18:02,791
Anybody in San
Francisco, LA or New York.
325
00:18:02,957 --> 00:18:06,586
I got San Francisco, start
with Holland's address book.
326
00:18:06,753 --> 00:18:08,421
Read me off the last four digits
327
00:18:08,588 --> 00:18:10,673
of any of the ones
with telephone numbers.
328
00:18:13,676 --> 00:18:16,012
"Albano. 4512.
329
00:18:16,179 --> 00:18:19,599
Altman. 1 763.
330
00:18:19,766 --> 00:18:22,060
Berry. 9808.
331
00:18:22,227 --> 00:18:24,854
Curry. 4212.
332
00:18:25,021 --> 00:18:27,107
Delorman. 78…"
333
00:18:27,273 --> 00:18:29,776
Wait a minute, hold it.
334
00:18:29,943 --> 00:18:32,028
That's Holland's "J. Curry."
335
00:18:40,745 --> 00:18:43,957
San Francisco's got "John C."
336
00:18:44,124 --> 00:18:48,294
who lives in New York, and
has the same phone number.
337
00:18:51,714 --> 00:18:53,967
Yeah.
338
00:18:54,134 --> 00:18:56,594
And LA's got…
339
00:19:01,683 --> 00:19:03,935
"J.R.C."
340
00:19:04,978 --> 00:19:07,147
New York.
341
00:19:11,734 --> 00:19:13,444
Same number.
342
00:19:15,196 --> 00:19:17,282
You got the odds on
three murder victims
343
00:19:17,448 --> 00:19:19,701
knowing the same guy?
344
00:19:21,244 --> 00:19:24,289
He was in San Francisco and
LA when the others were killed.
345
00:19:24,455 --> 00:19:27,417
Same days? And
one on either side.
346
00:19:27,584 --> 00:19:30,503
And all three of them had his
name in their address book?
347
00:19:30,670 --> 00:19:34,340
Not to mention Bobby Holland's
new boyfriend's name is Jack.
348
00:19:35,508 --> 00:19:37,927
Enough?
349
00:19:38,094 --> 00:19:40,138
Pick him up.
350
00:19:44,726 --> 00:19:46,186
Bust the door and
then stand back.
351
00:19:46,352 --> 00:19:49,272
My partner and I will
go in first. It's our collar.
352
00:19:54,319 --> 00:19:56,946
That's funny. I
figured Def Leppard.
353
00:19:57,113 --> 00:19:59,991
Maybe Motley Cr e. Ready? Go.
354
00:20:01,284 --> 00:20:03,828
Police! Which one
of you is Jack Curry?
355
00:20:03,995 --> 00:20:06,122
I'm Jack Curry. You're
under arrest for the murder
356
00:20:06,289 --> 00:20:08,124
of Bobby Holland! Put
your hands on your head!
357
00:20:08,291 --> 00:20:10,251
But I didn't… Max: Now!
358
00:20:11,920 --> 00:20:13,963
Check it out. Get up!
359
00:20:17,258 --> 00:20:19,552
Spread your legs! You
have the right to remain silent.
360
00:20:19,719 --> 00:20:22,096
Anything you say may be used
against you in a court of law.
361
00:20:22,263 --> 00:20:24,098
Hands down! Get your hand down!
362
00:20:24,265 --> 00:20:26,017
You have the
right to an attorney.
363
00:20:26,184 --> 00:20:29,145
If you cannot afford an attorney,
one will be provided for you at no cost.
364
00:20:29,312 --> 00:20:30,897
Let's go.
365
00:20:35,360 --> 00:20:37,487
Max: His lawyer's already here.
366
00:20:37,654 --> 00:20:39,656
Julia DeBakey.
367
00:20:39,822 --> 00:20:41,616
Great. What? Who's she?
368
00:20:41,783 --> 00:20:45,078
Probably the toughest civil rights
lawyer since William Kunstler.
369
00:20:46,663 --> 00:20:48,206
Paul Robinette. Julia DeBakey.
370
00:20:48,373 --> 00:20:50,541
Your cops put my
client in a holding cell
371
00:20:50,708 --> 00:20:52,543
with a bunch of drug addicts.
372
00:20:52,710 --> 00:20:55,004
Jeez, we tried to get
him a private suite.
373
00:20:55,171 --> 00:20:57,215
Eh, he looks like he survived.
374
00:20:57,382 --> 00:21:01,052
Counselor, this case, it
isn't exactly your ballgame.
375
00:21:01,219 --> 00:21:03,304
Oh, how wrong you
are, Mr. Robinette.
376
00:21:03,471 --> 00:21:06,307
We're building a whole
new ballpark with this one.
377
00:21:06,641 --> 00:21:08,726
I'll allow my client
to answer questions
378
00:21:08,893 --> 00:21:10,895
but I may cut this
off at any time.
379
00:21:11,062 --> 00:21:13,189
Logan: Let's start with
the wristwatch, Jack.
380
00:21:13,356 --> 00:21:15,692
Engraved to Bobby
Holland on the back.
381
00:21:18,861 --> 00:21:20,488
Bobby gave it to
me as a present.
382
00:21:20,655 --> 00:21:22,407
Just before you
blew his head off?
383
00:21:22,907 --> 00:21:26,828
To thank me for helping
him to shoot himself.
384
00:21:26,995 --> 00:21:29,330
You want to run
that by us again.
385
00:21:29,497 --> 00:21:33,793
Bobby wanted help…
To commit suicide.
386
00:21:33,960 --> 00:21:36,587
Look, he had AIDS.
387
00:21:36,754 --> 00:21:40,216
He wanted it to look like a robbery
so his mother wouldn't know.
388
00:21:43,011 --> 00:21:45,930
And when you went to visit
Uncle Joe in Los Angeles?
389
00:21:46,097 --> 00:21:48,182
And Aunt Millie
in San Francisco?
390
00:21:56,232 --> 00:21:57,942
You know about them?
391
00:22:02,322 --> 00:22:04,157
Look…
392
00:22:04,324 --> 00:22:06,326
if you commit suicide
393
00:22:06,492 --> 00:22:08,328
you don't get the insurance.
394
00:22:08,494 --> 00:22:09,787
Those men…
395
00:22:09,954 --> 00:22:11,956
Forest? Dodge?
396
00:22:12,123 --> 00:22:15,251
Yes, they pulled the
triggers themselves.
397
00:22:15,418 --> 00:22:17,128
And you just wipe the gun clean?
398
00:22:17,295 --> 00:22:20,840
My client has nothing
to say about those cases.
399
00:22:22,216 --> 00:22:23,718
What about Bobby Holland?
400
00:22:23,885 --> 00:22:25,970
Do you know what
AIDS looks like?
401
00:22:26,137 --> 00:22:29,140
Have you seen Kaposi's Sarcoma?
402
00:22:29,307 --> 00:22:31,267
Do you know what
pneumocystis does?
403
00:22:32,060 --> 00:22:34,479
What it's like when
you can't breathe?
404
00:22:35,229 --> 00:22:38,232
Dodge won a
silver metal in Seoul.
405
00:22:38,399 --> 00:22:41,152
Forest, used to be a
professor out at UCLA,
406
00:22:41,319 --> 00:22:42,987
PhD in Linguistics.
407
00:22:43,154 --> 00:22:46,032
The last month of his life
he forgot how to tell the time.
408
00:22:46,199 --> 00:22:48,910
Did you shoot Bobby Holland?
409
00:22:49,077 --> 00:22:51,788
Bobby didn't want to waste away.
410
00:22:51,954 --> 00:22:54,624
Who pulled the trigger?
411
00:22:56,209 --> 00:22:58,169
I held the gun.
412
00:22:59,170 --> 00:23:01,672
Bobby wrapped his
hand around mine.
413
00:23:01,839 --> 00:23:03,800
He said he wanted to die.
414
00:23:05,385 --> 00:23:07,720
I helped Bobby
do what he wanted.
415
00:23:11,933 --> 00:23:15,603
I didn't… I didn't
wanna do it,
416
00:23:15,770 --> 00:23:17,855
but I wasn't considering myself.
417
00:23:18,022 --> 00:23:20,441
It's called Mercy Killing.
418
00:23:20,608 --> 00:23:24,612
You have 48 hours to
arraign him or let him go.
419
00:23:24,779 --> 00:23:27,407
Ask the medical examiner
if Holland did have AIDS.
420
00:23:27,573 --> 00:23:29,075
You'll get answers
faster than I will.
421
00:23:29,242 --> 00:23:32,161
And if Holland did? Find out about
the victims in LA and San Francisco.
422
00:23:32,328 --> 00:23:35,039
What if they had AIDS, too?
423
00:23:35,206 --> 00:23:37,708
We'll need answers to questions
we haven't even thought of.
424
00:23:37,875 --> 00:23:39,460
Logan: The guy's
jive. I'm telling you.
425
00:23:39,627 --> 00:23:40,878
A jury might not think so.
426
00:23:41,045 --> 00:23:42,880
What's a jury going
to think when they hear
427
00:23:43,047 --> 00:23:44,632
Holland never even
touched the gun?
428
00:23:44,799 --> 00:23:46,467
No powder residue on his hands.
429
00:23:49,053 --> 00:23:51,097
Holland had AIDS. So
did San Francisco and LA.
430
00:23:51,264 --> 00:23:53,724
So Curry's telling the
truth. Or part of the truth.
431
00:23:53,891 --> 00:23:56,185
You say it's a mercy
killing, you don't do 15-to-life.
432
00:23:56,352 --> 00:23:58,896
Because somebody has AIDS,
doesn't mean he can't be murdered.
433
00:23:59,063 --> 00:24:02,233
Where's that get us? He's killing
these AIDS patients for kicks?
434
00:24:04,026 --> 00:24:07,155
I hated Bobby being
that way. I hated it.
435
00:24:07,321 --> 00:24:10,408
People he hung out with… I
hated the way he lived his life.
436
00:24:10,575 --> 00:24:14,579
But this guy, Curry, you
shouldn't put him in jail.
437
00:24:14,745 --> 00:24:16,497
He shot your son.
438
00:24:16,664 --> 00:24:18,875
You read the
articles? Newspapers?
439
00:24:20,126 --> 00:24:22,003
Not an easy way to go.
440
00:24:24,839 --> 00:24:27,508
Bobby wanted to die.
441
00:24:27,675 --> 00:24:29,552
You can't be sure of that.
442
00:24:31,429 --> 00:24:33,389
Yes, I can.
443
00:24:35,224 --> 00:24:37,226
Bobby asked me…
444
00:24:37,393 --> 00:24:39,562
to shoot him first.
445
00:24:43,399 --> 00:24:45,568
I knew Bobby was gay.
446
00:24:47,153 --> 00:24:49,322
We just couldn't talk about it.
447
00:24:51,199 --> 00:24:53,910
I'll never have that chance now.
448
00:24:55,453 --> 00:24:57,413
That bastard, Curry…
449
00:24:57,580 --> 00:24:59,957
killed my son.
450
00:25:00,124 --> 00:25:02,251
You have to put
that man in jail.
451
00:25:02,418 --> 00:25:05,463
The defense is going to
make a very strong case
452
00:25:05,630 --> 00:25:07,840
that your son intended to die.
453
00:25:12,345 --> 00:25:14,138
I've been getting Bobby's mail.
454
00:25:14,305 --> 00:25:15,973
This letter.
455
00:25:16,140 --> 00:25:18,726
"Gay Men Allied Against Aids."
456
00:25:19,227 --> 00:25:21,729
Bobby had an
appointment with someone
457
00:25:21,896 --> 00:25:23,814
to talk about taking AZT.
458
00:25:27,026 --> 00:25:29,111
My son wanted to live.
459
00:25:32,823 --> 00:25:35,535
Judge: The charges are:
murder in the second degree;
460
00:25:35,701 --> 00:25:37,411
conspiracy in the first degree;
461
00:25:37,578 --> 00:25:39,205
manslaughter in
the first degree;
462
00:25:39,372 --> 00:25:40,915
criminally negligent homicide;
463
00:25:41,082 --> 00:25:43,292
promoting a suicide attempt;
464
00:25:43,459 --> 00:25:45,545
and reckless endangerment
in the second degree.
465
00:25:45,711 --> 00:25:47,713
Does the defendant
wish to enter a plea?
466
00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:49,924
Yes, Your Honor.
Not guilty on all counts.
467
00:25:50,091 --> 00:25:53,177
Do the people have a bail
recommendation, Mr. Stone?
468
00:25:53,344 --> 00:25:55,054
This case is a
homicide, Your Honor.
469
00:25:55,221 --> 00:25:57,974
Despite the circumstances we
feel that some bail is necessary.
470
00:25:58,432 --> 00:26:01,519
Personally, I'm uncomfortable
releasing any homicide defendant
471
00:26:01,686 --> 00:26:03,521
without substantial bail,
472
00:26:03,688 --> 00:26:06,399
but I do not feel that this
defendant is a major flight risk.
473
00:26:06,566 --> 00:26:09,318
$50,000. Short date.
474
00:26:12,488 --> 00:26:15,408
Our government is
killing us through neglect.
475
00:26:15,741 --> 00:26:19,412
The mayor, the governor, the
president, they have blood on their hands.
476
00:26:19,579 --> 00:26:23,040
While we're dying, they're
prosecuting Jack Curry.
477
00:26:23,207 --> 00:26:25,668
Take the money from
the District Attorney
478
00:26:25,835 --> 00:26:27,712
and give it to the
Health Department.
479
00:26:27,878 --> 00:26:30,047
Mr. Gordon, do you
think the prosecution
480
00:26:30,214 --> 00:26:32,049
has hustled the
people with AIDS?
481
00:26:32,216 --> 00:26:34,218
If Bobby Holland was
dying of Alzheimer's
482
00:26:34,385 --> 00:26:36,637
and Jack Curry wasn't gay,
would they charge him with murder?
483
00:26:37,972 --> 00:26:40,349
Every gay activist in the
country is going to be after us.
484
00:26:40,516 --> 00:26:42,768
I understand, Adam, but
gay/straight is not the issue,
485
00:26:42,935 --> 00:26:45,479
murder masquerading as
assisted suicide is the issue.
486
00:26:45,646 --> 00:26:48,941
Let's say we drop the charges
and go for a misdemeanor,
487
00:26:49,108 --> 00:26:51,360
we're not ignoring the
gay/straight question,
488
00:26:51,527 --> 00:26:54,530
we're making it the only question.
And you know what that is?
489
00:26:54,697 --> 00:26:57,199
Good politics. Yes, and bad law.
490
00:26:57,366 --> 00:26:59,869
It's not compassion.
It's pity for gay people.
491
00:27:00,036 --> 00:27:02,163
And pity is one step
away from ridicule.
492
00:27:04,749 --> 00:27:06,959
Now what if Bobby
Holland wanted to die?
493
00:27:09,503 --> 00:27:12,882
How does anybody know what
went through Bobby Holland's mind
494
00:27:13,049 --> 00:27:15,217
five minutes before he
died? Or two minutes?
495
00:27:15,384 --> 00:27:17,845
Or 20 seconds? Or one second?
496
00:27:18,012 --> 00:27:21,599
And Jack Curry, who's
done this twice before,
497
00:27:21,766 --> 00:27:23,267
did he talk him into it?
498
00:27:23,434 --> 00:27:25,353
Can't change the fact
499
00:27:25,770 --> 00:27:28,272
that Holland was
gay and Curry is gay.
500
00:27:28,773 --> 00:27:31,108
What I can't change
is that Jack Curry
501
00:27:31,275 --> 00:27:32,693
didn't bring pills
and leave them.
502
00:27:32,860 --> 00:27:34,487
He didn't bring a
gun and leave it.
503
00:27:34,654 --> 00:27:35,863
He pulled the trigger.
504
00:27:41,202 --> 00:27:44,538
Bobby Hollasnd didn't
need an angel of death.
505
00:27:44,955 --> 00:27:46,332
I mean, he wasn't that sick yet.
506
00:27:46,666 --> 00:27:48,250
Did he want to die?
507
00:27:48,417 --> 00:27:50,920
Look, you're HIV positive,
508
00:27:51,087 --> 00:27:53,881
if you think you'll hang around
509
00:27:54,048 --> 00:27:57,176
till you get sick, you'll
start to feel lousy,
510
00:27:57,343 --> 00:27:59,512
it's hardly unusual
to think about suicide.
511
00:28:02,473 --> 00:28:05,559
Bobby wanted to kill
himself. I told him not to.
512
00:28:07,269 --> 00:28:08,312
And?
513
00:28:08,771 --> 00:28:10,606
He said he'd think about it…
514
00:28:10,773 --> 00:28:12,942
Going on AZT, trying
experimental drugs.
515
00:28:14,735 --> 00:28:17,613
I saw Conrad Gordon on TV.
516
00:28:17,780 --> 00:28:19,615
Anybody want to
call Jack Curry a hero,
517
00:28:19,782 --> 00:28:21,409
I tell 'em to look at me.
518
00:28:21,575 --> 00:28:23,619
I was diagnosed
with AIDS when it was
519
00:28:23,786 --> 00:28:25,955
still called GRID,
for God's sake.
520
00:28:26,122 --> 00:28:27,873
I'm still here.
521
00:28:30,584 --> 00:28:32,378
Curry had no right…
522
00:28:32,545 --> 00:28:34,755
to shoot Bobby Holland.
523
00:28:36,340 --> 00:28:38,467
Okay. Thanks.
524
00:28:44,932 --> 00:28:47,101
You're saying Bobby Holland
might have reconsidered.
525
00:28:47,268 --> 00:28:49,437
If he'd reconsidered, my
client wouldn't be here.
526
00:28:49,603 --> 00:28:51,272
You don't know
that. I don't know that.
527
00:28:51,439 --> 00:28:53,566
And even you don't
know that, Mr. Curry.
528
00:28:53,733 --> 00:28:55,943
You were involved in
those cases in California,
529
00:28:56,110 --> 00:28:58,696
do you have a stake in
getting these people to die?
530
00:28:58,863 --> 00:29:01,073
No, Mr. Stone, I don't.
531
00:29:01,240 --> 00:29:03,284
Did you try to talk
Bobby Holland out of it?
532
00:29:03,451 --> 00:29:05,953
Several times,
over several hours.
533
00:29:06,120 --> 00:29:08,873
He didn't want to
turn into a zombie.
534
00:29:09,832 --> 00:29:11,917
What if it were
your son, Mr. Stone?
535
00:29:12,084 --> 00:29:13,669
If it were my son?
536
00:29:14,336 --> 00:29:17,047
I'd take him to every hospital
in America and try to save him.
537
00:29:17,214 --> 00:29:19,383
We'll plead to
promoting a suicide.
538
00:29:19,550 --> 00:29:21,343
Stone: You'll plead
to manslaughter one.
539
00:29:22,928 --> 00:29:25,431
We'll… drop the other charges
540
00:29:25,598 --> 00:29:27,892
and make a sentencing
recommendation.
541
00:29:29,018 --> 00:29:31,020
Bobby Holland
intended to shoot himself.
542
00:29:31,187 --> 00:29:34,398
Manslaughter one is an admission
my client intended to shoot him.
543
00:29:34,565 --> 00:29:36,400
He didn't shoot
him full of penicillin.
544
00:29:39,361 --> 00:29:41,363
We're finished here, Jack.
545
00:29:44,867 --> 00:29:46,368
Look, Mr. Stone,
546
00:29:46,535 --> 00:29:48,788
I hope you never have to
face these choices yourself.
547
00:29:48,954 --> 00:29:51,248
I hope you never
see anybody dying,
548
00:29:51,415 --> 00:29:53,459
the way I've seen people dying.
549
00:29:53,626 --> 00:29:55,836
But if you do,
550
00:29:56,003 --> 00:29:57,838
I hope you have
the courage to do
551
00:29:58,005 --> 00:30:00,049
whatever has to be done.
552
00:30:12,686 --> 00:30:15,689
DeBakey: What is your position
at the hospice, Mr. Wellman?
553
00:30:15,856 --> 00:30:17,191
Wellman: I counsel
people with AIDS.
554
00:30:17,650 --> 00:30:20,653
Over the past year, how many
people have you counseled?
555
00:30:20,820 --> 00:30:24,114
Short term, over 100. Long
term, perhaps two dozen.
556
00:30:25,115 --> 00:30:26,659
And how long have
you worked there?
557
00:30:27,576 --> 00:30:28,828
11 years.
558
00:30:28,994 --> 00:30:31,080
And everyone you
care for is dying?
559
00:30:31,247 --> 00:30:33,999
We're all dying, Ms. DeBakey.
560
00:30:35,793 --> 00:30:39,046
I mean, the people in the
hospice are terminally ill.
561
00:30:39,213 --> 00:30:42,174
Most of those who come
to us will die within a year.
562
00:30:43,384 --> 00:30:45,803
Isn't it true that
many cancer patients
563
00:30:45,970 --> 00:30:48,097
experience excruciating pain?
564
00:30:48,264 --> 00:30:49,932
Yes, that's common.
565
00:30:52,852 --> 00:30:55,187
You ever counseled
anyone to commit suicide?
566
00:30:55,354 --> 00:30:56,438
Objection, relevance.
567
00:30:56,605 --> 00:30:58,524
This trial isn't about
the right to die.
568
00:30:58,691 --> 00:31:01,068
It's about whether the
defendant shot Bobby Holland.
569
00:31:01,235 --> 00:31:03,028
The issues
surrounding "right to die"
570
00:31:03,195 --> 00:31:04,864
are murky in this
state, Mr. Stone.
571
00:31:05,030 --> 00:31:06,866
The testimony
seems to me relevant.
572
00:31:07,032 --> 00:31:09,034
The witness will continue.
573
00:31:09,201 --> 00:31:12,580
I've counseled
people on suicide, yes.
574
00:31:12,746 --> 00:31:16,292
We call it, "Letting
yourself be snowed under."
575
00:31:16,458 --> 00:31:18,043
And what do you counsel them?
576
00:31:18,210 --> 00:31:19,962
We suggest they go to England
577
00:31:20,129 --> 00:31:22,882
where doctors have the
right to assist in dying.
578
00:31:23,966 --> 00:31:25,342
Thank you.
579
00:31:27,928 --> 00:31:31,265
Mr. Wellman, have you ever
given to anyone in your hospice
580
00:31:31,432 --> 00:31:33,392
lethal chemicals, a gun…
581
00:31:33,559 --> 00:31:35,728
Any device that might
help them commit suicide?
582
00:31:35,895 --> 00:31:37,730
No? Why not?
583
00:31:37,897 --> 00:31:39,982
I've been told it's
against the law.
584
00:31:41,692 --> 00:31:45,070
Gordon: We've established a hotline
to answer questions about AIDS.
585
00:31:45,237 --> 00:31:48,365
How many of those calls
have you answered personally?
586
00:31:48,532 --> 00:31:50,326
Thousands.
587
00:31:50,492 --> 00:31:53,245
I volunteer three nights a week.
I've been doing it seven years.
588
00:31:53,412 --> 00:31:55,372
Do the callers ever
ask you about suicide?
589
00:31:55,539 --> 00:31:57,791
Frequently. And
what do you tell them?
590
00:32:00,169 --> 00:32:02,546
That dying of AIDS
is a difficult death.
591
00:32:02,713 --> 00:32:06,050
And that they have the
right to take their own life
592
00:32:06,216 --> 00:32:08,677
when the pain becomes too great.
593
00:32:12,014 --> 00:32:13,599
Your witness, Mr. Stone.
594
00:32:13,766 --> 00:32:15,893
Now, Mr. Gordon,
as a gay activist,
595
00:32:16,060 --> 00:32:18,604
you're familiar with the current
state of treatment for AIDS?
596
00:32:18,771 --> 00:32:21,774
Reasonably. And you're
aware that AZT and other drugs
597
00:32:21,941 --> 00:32:25,235
have prolonged the life
of these patients? Yes.
598
00:32:26,195 --> 00:32:29,239
And that people have lived
with AIDS for several years?
599
00:32:29,406 --> 00:32:31,116
Yes, I know that.
600
00:32:31,283 --> 00:32:33,827
But I also know that in the
end it's a gruesome death.
601
00:32:33,994 --> 00:32:38,040
People with AIDS do not "go
gently into that good night."
602
00:32:38,207 --> 00:32:40,960
You also know that some gay
men, out of embarrassment,
603
00:32:41,126 --> 00:32:43,420
might not seek treatment
and commit suicide instead.
604
00:32:43,587 --> 00:32:44,213
Are you in favor of that?
605
00:32:46,382 --> 00:32:50,302
I'm in favor of gay men
taking power over their lives.
606
00:32:55,349 --> 00:32:57,810
No more questions, Your Honor.
607
00:33:12,866 --> 00:33:15,786
Excuse me. Are you
Ben Stone? Yes, sir.
608
00:33:17,162 --> 00:33:18,998
You gay-bashing son of a bitch!
609
00:33:19,164 --> 00:33:22,084
Leave us alone to run
our own lives and deaths.
610
00:33:29,425 --> 00:33:32,177
Adam: It could get worse. What,
you think I need a police guard?
611
00:33:32,344 --> 00:33:35,431
Why, you think it's a joke?
Gay activists don't shoot people.
612
00:33:35,597 --> 00:33:37,558
I wouldn't be so
sure you're safe, Ben.
613
00:33:39,560 --> 00:33:41,311
Jack Curry has AIDS.
614
00:33:41,478 --> 00:33:44,314
Julia DeBakey just released it.
615
00:33:47,735 --> 00:33:49,778
It's time to bail out of this.
616
00:33:59,830 --> 00:34:01,749
Stone: It just seems
like revenge at this point.
617
00:34:01,915 --> 00:34:03,834
Find us something. Anything.
618
00:34:04,001 --> 00:34:06,420
Tonight? Go back
over the evidence.
619
00:34:06,587 --> 00:34:09,381
Give us a reason to drop
the charges against Curry.
620
00:34:17,723 --> 00:34:19,850
Anybody got any idea
what we're looking for?
621
00:34:20,017 --> 00:34:21,769
Remeasure everything…
622
00:34:21,935 --> 00:34:24,104
Distance of the
body from the bed,
623
00:34:24,271 --> 00:34:26,148
blood markings. All of it.
624
00:34:26,315 --> 00:34:28,317
And redust for prints.
625
00:34:28,484 --> 00:34:30,569
Make a map of where
you get every print.
626
00:34:37,618 --> 00:34:39,119
How's the jaw?
627
00:34:39,286 --> 00:34:41,455
It only hurts
when I prosecute…
628
00:34:41,622 --> 00:34:43,957
So keep me out of court
until the swelling goes down.
629
00:34:44,124 --> 00:34:46,752
Two bookcases were turned over.
630
00:34:46,919 --> 00:34:49,630
Pushed from behind.
Yeah, we redusted.
631
00:34:49,797 --> 00:34:52,716
Full palm prints
on the back of both.
632
00:34:52,883 --> 00:34:56,804
Max: Both sets of prints
belong to Bobby Holland.
633
00:34:56,970 --> 00:34:58,305
Curry's prints weren't on them.
634
00:34:58,472 --> 00:35:00,641
Which means Holland
trashed the place himself
635
00:35:00,808 --> 00:35:02,726
to make it look like a burglary.
636
00:35:04,103 --> 00:35:06,355
Which means he wanted to die.
637
00:35:08,148 --> 00:35:10,651
Well, maybe to us. Max: Meaning?
638
00:35:11,693 --> 00:35:13,862
It's convincing
emotionally but not legally.
639
00:35:14,029 --> 00:35:16,490
The prints could have
been put there a year before.
640
00:35:16,657 --> 00:35:18,867
And as to state of mind,
he could have changed it
641
00:35:19,034 --> 00:35:21,745
the microsecond before
Curry pulled the trigger.
642
00:35:21,912 --> 00:35:23,705
But does it convince you?
643
00:35:28,627 --> 00:35:31,130
Curry's already under
a sentence of death.
644
00:35:32,297 --> 00:35:35,509
That's as much payment
as anyone could ask for.
645
00:35:38,178 --> 00:35:41,098
Drop it completely?
It's the right thing to do.
646
00:35:41,265 --> 00:35:43,559
He pleads to
promoting a suicide?
647
00:35:43,725 --> 00:35:45,978
He does no time.
648
00:35:55,737 --> 00:35:57,739
Yeah?
649
00:36:05,289 --> 00:36:07,124
You got a copycat.
650
00:36:07,291 --> 00:36:10,627
A woman from Queens
just shot her retarded son.
651
00:36:10,794 --> 00:36:14,214
She says she got the
idea of a mercy killing
652
00:36:14,381 --> 00:36:16,508
from the Holland case.
653
00:36:24,975 --> 00:36:27,102
Well?
654
00:36:28,896 --> 00:36:30,856
I've got no choice.
655
00:36:35,360 --> 00:36:37,821
We keep going.
656
00:36:38,947 --> 00:36:41,200
This morning I was
just another ruthless DA,
657
00:36:41,366 --> 00:36:43,368
now I'm running the Inquisition.
658
00:36:44,786 --> 00:36:47,998
Gordon: Mr. Stone, why do you
want to put a dying man in jail?
659
00:36:48,165 --> 00:36:51,376
Mr. Stone, if you
were dying of AIDS
660
00:36:51,543 --> 00:36:53,629
would you want someone
to end your misery?
661
00:36:55,214 --> 00:36:57,758
Mr. Gordon asks, do I want
to put a dying man in jail?
662
00:36:57,925 --> 00:37:00,636
The answer is no. But we're
asking a more important question.
663
00:37:00,802 --> 00:37:02,721
Does Jack Curry have the right,
664
00:37:02,888 --> 00:37:06,266
all by himself, to put a
dying man in his grave?
665
00:37:06,433 --> 00:37:09,186
DeBakey: You allow regular
customers to charge their drinks?
666
00:37:09,353 --> 00:37:11,230
Bartender: Well,
not exactly charge.
667
00:37:11,396 --> 00:37:14,441
You got to make a payment on
your tab every once in a while.
668
00:37:14,608 --> 00:37:17,444
Did Bobby Holland
pay his bill regularly?
669
00:37:17,611 --> 00:37:19,613
He ran a tab, on and off
670
00:37:19,780 --> 00:37:21,490
for the last two or three years.
671
00:37:21,657 --> 00:37:23,283
Paid a little on
it now and then.
672
00:37:23,450 --> 00:37:25,786
Never let it get much
over a hundred bucks.
673
00:37:27,704 --> 00:37:30,415
Did that change, Mr. Roland?
674
00:37:31,458 --> 00:37:33,168
A couple…
675
00:37:33,335 --> 00:37:35,963
a couple of weeks
before Bobby died,
676
00:37:36,129 --> 00:37:40,133
he comes in and he lays
$120 on the bar and says
677
00:37:40,300 --> 00:37:42,302
this is for the bill,
plus a tip for me.
678
00:37:42,469 --> 00:37:45,514
I said, "Bobby, what?
You hit the lottery?"
679
00:37:45,681 --> 00:37:48,100
He said, "No…
680
00:37:48,267 --> 00:37:50,978
I just wanna pay my bill."
681
00:37:53,105 --> 00:37:56,191
And after that, he paid cash.
682
00:38:00,237 --> 00:38:01,947
Your own son…
683
00:38:04,366 --> 00:38:06,451
he handed you the gun…
684
00:38:11,748 --> 00:38:13,542
what did you say?
685
00:38:15,168 --> 00:38:18,422
I told him I didn't think I
could go through with it.
686
00:38:19,923 --> 00:38:21,508
And what did he say?
687
00:38:21,675 --> 00:38:24,177
What words did he use?
688
00:38:24,344 --> 00:38:26,555
He said, "Dad…
689
00:38:26,722 --> 00:38:30,642
if you ever wanted to
do anything for me…
690
00:38:31,977 --> 00:38:33,687
do this."
691
00:38:34,730 --> 00:38:36,481
Thank you.
692
00:38:36,648 --> 00:38:38,692
No more questions.
693
00:38:41,570 --> 00:38:44,698
Mr. Holland, I know this
is difficult, so bear with me.
694
00:38:44,865 --> 00:38:47,951
You testified that your
son wanted to shoot himself.
695
00:38:48,118 --> 00:38:50,120
He had a gun, why didn't he?
696
00:38:56,668 --> 00:38:59,004
Were his reasons religious?
697
00:39:00,255 --> 00:39:01,923
No.
698
00:39:03,383 --> 00:39:06,219
Was he worried about the
pain he'd cause other people?
699
00:39:07,721 --> 00:39:09,639
No.
700
00:39:09,806 --> 00:39:13,101
Then why do you think your
son was unable to take his life?
701
00:39:16,104 --> 00:39:19,941
He said he was afraid to die.
702
00:39:21,276 --> 00:39:23,945
Thank you, sir.
703
00:39:32,579 --> 00:39:34,414
Robinette: Ben!
704
00:39:34,581 --> 00:39:37,626
Ben, DeBakey's putting
Curry on the stand.
705
00:39:37,793 --> 00:39:40,295
Tough to win the hearts
and minds of a jury
706
00:39:40,462 --> 00:39:42,506
by cross-examining
a guy dying of AIDS.
707
00:39:42,672 --> 00:39:45,092
It's still a trial.
708
00:39:48,595 --> 00:39:50,430
DeBakey: And
early in the disease
709
00:39:50,597 --> 00:39:53,266
what symptoms have
you personally witnessed?
710
00:39:53,433 --> 00:39:55,852
Exhaustion, dizziness,
711
00:39:56,019 --> 00:39:58,772
the inability to hold down food,
712
00:39:58,939 --> 00:40:00,857
loss of weight
713
00:40:01,024 --> 00:40:03,902
would be the most visible
symptom. Later in the disease?
714
00:40:04,861 --> 00:40:07,989
A friend of mine… I'd
gone to college with him…
715
00:40:08,156 --> 00:40:10,200
He went blind.
716
00:40:10,367 --> 00:40:12,285
And then he got pneumonia.
717
00:40:14,246 --> 00:40:16,498
Have you ever heard
what it sounds like
718
00:40:16,665 --> 00:40:18,542
when somebody is drowning?
719
00:40:18,708 --> 00:40:21,002
That's what he sounded like.
720
00:40:21,169 --> 00:40:23,130
For six weeks.
721
00:40:24,756 --> 00:40:27,050
You have been diagnosed
with AIDS, is that correct?
722
00:40:27,217 --> 00:40:29,219
Yes.
723
00:40:29,386 --> 00:40:31,179
What do you hope for?
724
00:40:31,346 --> 00:40:33,598
A cure.
725
00:40:35,600 --> 00:40:38,854
And if one does not
come along soon enough?
726
00:40:41,481 --> 00:40:43,483
Hope I'll be lucky
enough to find someone
727
00:40:43,650 --> 00:40:46,278
who'll help me commit suicide.
728
00:40:50,323 --> 00:40:52,159
No more questions. Your witness.
729
00:40:57,539 --> 00:40:59,416
Mr. Curry…
730
00:40:59,583 --> 00:41:01,877
who pulled the
trigger on the gun?
731
00:41:05,839 --> 00:41:08,633
Answer the question,
please, Mr. Curry.
732
00:41:11,011 --> 00:41:13,180
It was me.
733
00:41:13,346 --> 00:41:16,558
Did Mr. Holland have
his hand on the gun at all?
734
00:41:17,934 --> 00:41:19,769
N-no.
735
00:41:22,063 --> 00:41:24,191
No more questions, Your Honor.
736
00:41:25,275 --> 00:41:27,277
Judge: You may
step down, Mr. Curry.
737
00:41:30,238 --> 00:41:32,699
Your Honor, on the
basis of new information
738
00:41:32,866 --> 00:41:35,160
the defense would like to
call an unscheduled witness.
739
00:41:35,327 --> 00:41:37,078
Detective Michael Logan.
740
00:41:37,245 --> 00:41:38,788
Mr. Stone?
741
00:41:39,247 --> 00:41:41,500
No objection, Your Honor.
742
00:41:46,338 --> 00:41:48,715
She has very good sources.
743
00:41:50,133 --> 00:41:52,260
I'd like to know who they are.
744
00:41:55,555 --> 00:41:58,517
Do you swear to tell the
truth and nothing but the truth
745
00:41:58,683 --> 00:41:59,893
so help you God? I do.
746
00:42:00,060 --> 00:42:01,561
State your name. Michael Logan.
747
00:42:01,728 --> 00:42:05,065
Your Honor, I would like Detective
Logan treated as a hostile witness.
748
00:42:05,565 --> 00:42:06,733
So noted.
749
00:42:10,445 --> 00:42:13,365
Tell the jury your
profession, please.
750
00:42:13,532 --> 00:42:16,451
I'm a detective with the New
York City Police Department
751
00:42:17,869 --> 00:42:19,538
Detective Logan,
752
00:42:19,704 --> 00:42:22,332
shortly after this trial began,
did you have a conversation
753
00:42:22,499 --> 00:42:25,585
with Assistant District Attorney
Ben Stone about this case?
754
00:42:29,422 --> 00:42:30,966
Yes, I did.
755
00:42:31,132 --> 00:42:35,011
Tell us the substance
of your conversation.
756
00:42:36,596 --> 00:42:40,308
Do I have to answer that,
Judge? Yes, you do, Detective.
757
00:42:43,436 --> 00:42:45,564
Judge: Answer the
question, Detective.
758
00:42:47,274 --> 00:42:49,943
Mr. Stone said that he thought
continuing the prosecution
759
00:42:50,110 --> 00:42:51,820
seemed like revenge to him.
760
00:42:51,987 --> 00:42:54,030
DeBakey: And what
was his solution?
761
00:42:55,365 --> 00:42:57,242
Mr. Stone directed myself
762
00:42:57,409 --> 00:42:59,286
and Sergeant Greevey
to find a reason
763
00:42:59,452 --> 00:43:01,788
for him to drop the
charges against Jack Curry.
764
00:43:15,302 --> 00:43:17,387
Will the defendant please rise?
765
00:43:22,517 --> 00:43:24,269
Judge: On the first
count of the indictment
766
00:43:24,436 --> 00:43:27,314
the charge of murder in the second
degree, how does the jury find?
767
00:43:27,480 --> 00:43:30,442
Not guilty.
768
00:43:35,614 --> 00:43:37,824
On the second count,
the charge of conspiracy
769
00:43:37,991 --> 00:43:39,993
in the first degree,
how does the jury find?
770
00:43:40,160 --> 00:43:41,828
Not guilty.
771
00:43:41,995 --> 00:43:44,998
On the third count,
manslaughter in the first degree,
772
00:43:45,165 --> 00:43:47,667
how does the jury
find? Not guilty.
773
00:43:47,834 --> 00:43:49,502
On the fourth count,
774
00:43:49,669 --> 00:43:51,755
the charge of criminally
negligent homicide,
775
00:43:51,921 --> 00:43:54,549
how does the jury
find? Not guilty.
776
00:43:54,716 --> 00:43:56,384
On the fifth count,
777
00:43:56,551 --> 00:43:58,219
promoting a suicide attempt,
778
00:43:58,386 --> 00:44:00,847
how does the jury
find? Not guilty.
779
00:44:01,014 --> 00:44:04,768
On the sixth count, reckless
endangerment in the second degree
780
00:44:04,934 --> 00:44:06,394
how does the jury find?
781
00:44:06,561 --> 00:44:08,563
Guilty.
782
00:44:18,531 --> 00:44:20,575
I'll catch up with you.
783
00:44:20,742 --> 00:44:22,702
Adam: Some people
aren't gonna be happy.
784
00:44:22,869 --> 00:44:24,871
Depends on what you
want… Vengeance or justice.
785
00:44:25,038 --> 00:44:27,207
Curry: Stone.
786
00:44:27,374 --> 00:44:29,751
Did you really think that
I was guilty of murder?
787
00:44:29,918 --> 00:44:32,420
We bring the charge when
they should be brought
788
00:44:32,587 --> 00:44:34,714
and let the people decide.
789
00:44:34,881 --> 00:44:37,550
I may not have a
very long life left
790
00:44:37,717 --> 00:44:39,552
but it is my life.
791
00:44:39,719 --> 00:44:41,221
This wasn't a prosecution,
792
00:44:41,388 --> 00:44:43,181
this was a warning, wasn't it?
793
00:44:43,348 --> 00:44:45,642
To anybody else thinking
about a mercy killing.
794
00:44:45,809 --> 00:44:48,061
What gave you
the right to use me?
795
00:44:48,228 --> 00:44:50,397
Unfortunately, you did.
796
00:44:50,563 --> 00:44:52,732
Not once, not twice,
but three times.
797
00:44:54,901 --> 00:44:57,278
Thanks, Adam.
798
00:45:00,156 --> 00:45:02,450
DeBakey: After all
that, misdemeanor.
799
00:45:02,617 --> 00:45:04,452
Six months suspended
with probation.
800
00:45:04,619 --> 00:45:06,788
No judge will put
Jack Curry in jail.
801
00:45:08,707 --> 00:45:10,709
If you'd gone only
for manslaughter one,
802
00:45:10,875 --> 00:45:12,961
the jury probably would
have found him guilty
803
00:45:13,128 --> 00:45:14,671
and he'd have done time.
804
00:45:16,923 --> 00:45:20,427
I wonder who told a
secretary in your office
805
00:45:20,593 --> 00:45:23,513
to call me about your
conversation with Logan.
806
00:45:23,680 --> 00:45:25,890
I'll have to look into that.
