In the 16th century, two million people in South America died of 152 00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:53,700 But the little village of Popayan was spared. 153 00:09:54,180 --> 00:09:58,000 So the Colombians think there was some sort of divine intervention? 154 00:09:58,580 --> 00:10:02,380 Precisely. They've been trying to reclaim it for years in court, but the 155 00:10:02,380 --> 00:10:03,520 lawsuits never went anywhere. 156 00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:05,260 And how did it end up here? 157 00:10:05,690 --> 00:10:09,070 We got the crown a couple of months ago on loan from the Vatican. 158 00:10:09,590 --> 00:10:12,030 It's been a wildly popular exhibit for us. 159 00:10:13,570 --> 00:10:18,390 There was this Colombian, this rabble -rouser named Amaru Yupanqui. 160 00:10:18,850 --> 00:10:23,370 He filed a new lawsuit against the museum. When that was dismissed, he went 161 00:10:23,370 --> 00:10:24,370 far as to threaten me. 162 00:10:25,210 --> 00:10:26,890 When? Last week. 163 00:10:28,090 --> 00:10:33,370 He sent me an email saying that if I didn't cooperate, he would take the 164 00:10:33,370 --> 00:10:34,370 by any means necessary. 165 00:10:40,680 --> 00:10:42,080 I was blowing off steam. 166 00:10:43,140 --> 00:10:44,960 Some people go for a run. 167 00:10:45,900 --> 00:10:46,980 You write death threats? 168 00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:52,240 I believe that indigenous Colombians are the rightful owners of the crown of 169 00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:57,160 Popayan. I'm passionate about that, and I will never stop fighting for it. But I 170 00:10:57,160 --> 00:10:58,160 didn't kill anyone. 171 00:10:58,320 --> 00:11:01,960 Well, that doesn't mean this whole thing wasn't your idea in the first place. I 172 00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:04,440 mean, maybe you hired those two guys to steal the crown. Please. 173 00:11:04,780 --> 00:11:06,400 Where were you this morning around 10 .30? 174 00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:07,159 At Mass. 175 00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:08,079 What church? 176 00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:09,800 St. Augustine's on Benton Avenue. 177 00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:10,939 What were you praying for? 178 00:11:10,940 --> 00:11:11,940 Their success? 179 00:11:14,540 --> 00:11:19,600 Remember that you are dust, and to dust you shall return. 180 00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:25,960 I was praying that I might live wisely with whatever time I have, which would 181 00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:29,860 not include hiring two imbeciles to steal something from a museum. 182 00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:32,520 Let me ask you something. 183 00:11:34,220 --> 00:11:36,540 You've been pissed at the church for years. 184 00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:38,380 But you still go to mass? 185 00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:40,460 You're still a believer? 186 00:11:40,900 --> 00:11:45,340 You're confusing the church with faith, which is exactly what the church wants. 187 00:11:45,540 --> 00:11:47,240 That's how we got into this mess. 188 00:11:47,540 --> 00:11:48,459 How's that? 189 00:11:48,460 --> 00:11:54,160 Indigenous artisans spent six years making the crown.

He's a former special ops guy. 387 00:22:11,130 --> 00:22:14,450 We caught him as he was attempting to flee. As we speak, he's being arraigned 388 00:22:14,450 --> 00:22:17,550 for the murder of Cecil Carbo. I expect he'll be remanded. Very good. 389 00:22:18,040 --> 00:22:19,060 And what about the crown? 390 00:22:19,360 --> 00:22:22,700 It wasn't in Mr. Salazar's possession when we took him into custody. 391 00:22:23,060 --> 00:22:25,020 So you have no idea where it is? 392 00:22:25,480 --> 00:22:26,480 Not yet. 393 00:22:27,240 --> 00:22:31,400 Mr. Salazar isn't cooperating with us. But we did find evidence in his 394 00:22:31,400 --> 00:22:32,660 that links him to the crime. 395 00:22:33,020 --> 00:22:36,260 We've been retracing his steps to see if we can figure out where he might have 396 00:22:36,260 --> 00:22:37,740 hidden it, but so far, no luck. 397 00:22:37,980 --> 00:22:41,500 I have to tell you, the Catholic community has been galvanized by this 398 00:22:41,500 --> 00:22:43,660 like nothing I can remember. 399 00:22:44,260 --> 00:22:46,820 It's essential that the crown be found. 400 00:22:47,470 --> 00:22:49,430 So what are you doing to ensure its recovery? 401 00:22:50,850 --> 00:22:54,830 Respectfully, we're trying to bring a killer to justice, so finding the relic 402 00:22:54,830 --> 00:22:56,710 not our focus. 403 00:22:57,430 --> 00:22:58,450 It should be. 404 00:22:58,870 --> 00:23:02,950 You're the one that told me the most important thing was getting justice for 405 00:23:02,950 --> 00:23:03,929 Cecil Carbo. 406 00:23:03,930 --> 00:23:06,730 And you think these things are mutually exclusive? 407 00:23:07,150 --> 00:23:13,030 That crown was created by ordinary people who then surrendered... 408 00:23:13,290 --> 00:23:17,650 their treasure, their literal treasure, golden stones that they pulled from the 409 00:23:17,650 --> 00:23:19,050 ground beneath their feet. 410 00:23:19,710 --> 00:23:24,450 So it's creation. It's a beautiful story. It mirrors the gospel itself. 411 00:23:25,630 --> 00:23:29,110 I get it, and we're going to do everything we can to find it. You have 412 00:23:29,670 --> 00:23:32,990 I don't want your word, Nick. I want your guarantee. 413 00:23:36,490 --> 00:23:38,370 Like I said, we'll do everything we can. 414 00:23:54,540 --> 00:23:56,540 Louis Salazar has been remanded. Good. 415 00:23:57,100 --> 00:23:58,100 How's our case? 416 00:23:58,520 --> 00:24:02,720 Solid. We don't have the murder weapon, but forensics have confirmed that the 417 00:24:02,720 --> 00:24:07,380 circular glass cutter we found in Salazar's apartment is the same blade 418 00:24:07,380 --> 00:24:09,160 slice open the display case in the museum. 419 00:24:09,920 --> 00:24:14,100 Salazar didn't just have a plane ticket to Miami. He was connecting in Miami to 420 00:24:14,100 --> 00:24:17,360 Yemen, which doesn't have an extradition treaty with the United States. 421 00:24:17,600 --> 00:24:21,420 But the core of the case is based on the testimony of the security guard, Joe 422 00:24:21,420 --> 00:24:26,140 Whitaker. and the Morse code chatter between Salazar and his other 423 00:24:26,160 --> 00:24:27,159 Frank Stevens. 424 00:24:27,160 --> 00:24:31,380 About that, the defense is challenging the admissibility of the pager. 425 00:24:32,720 --> 00:24:36,420 Your Honor, the detectives performed an illegal search of my client's suitcase 426 00:24:36,420 --> 00:24:41,660 at JFK. There were clearly exigent circumstances. The defendant was 427 00:24:41,660 --> 00:24:45,700 abscond to Yemen, carrying evidence that was vital to a murder investigation. 428 00:24:45,980 --> 00:24:49,080 It doesn't matter. Mr. Salazar's suitcase was gate -checked prior to the 429 00:24:49,080 --> 00:24:52,520 detectives' arrival, which is a legal transfer of custody to the airline. Once 430 00:24:52,520 --> 00:24:56,460 that happens... Then you're saying the suitcase was no longer in the immediate 431 00:24:56,460 --> 00:25:01,260 control of Mr. Salazar, and therefore no longer subject to a warrantless search. 432 00:25:01,520 --> 00:25:06,240 Correct. Your Honor, the inevitable discovery doctrine speaks directly to 433 00:25:06,240 --> 00:25:10,740 point. Federal authorities were required by statute to inspect that bag once our 434 00:25:10,740 --> 00:25:15,440 arrest triggered an alert. So the evidence that the pager would have been 435 00:25:15,440 --> 00:25:17,480 discovered inevitably within minutes. 436 00:25:17,680 --> 00:25:21,760 Perhaps, but the inevitability doctrine does not grant you the ability to 437 00:25:21,760 --> 00:25:27,720 retroactively justify an improper search by conjuring up lawful versions of the 438 00:25:27,720 --> 00:25:31,020 events that never happened. Once that suitcase was... 439 00:25:31,360 --> 00:25:36,240 Checked at the gate, it entered the exclusive custody of a federally 440 00:25:36,240 --> 00:25:42,920 airline. The bag's contents are out, which means the pager is 441 00:25:42,920 --> 00:25:43,920 out. 442 00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:55,860 Prior to February 18th, the day of Cecil Carbo's murder, did a man named Frank 443 00:25:55,860 --> 00:25:57,900 Stevens ask you to help him rob the museum? 444 00:25:58,680 --> 00:25:59,680 Yes. 445 00:26:00,750 --> 00:26:03,370 Frank and I were old friends. We grew up together. 446 00:26:04,570 --> 00:26:10,190 I had mentioned a few weeks before that the crown was on display at the museum 447 00:26:10,190 --> 00:26:14,090 where I worked. Then out of the blue, Frank asked how easy it would be to 448 00:26:14,190 --> 00:26:19,070 I thought he was kidding, you know, joking around at first, but he told his 449 00:26:19,070 --> 00:26:25,030 buddy, Flaco, because they... Sorry? By Flaco, you were referring to... Luis 450 00:26:25,030 --> 00:26:27,350 Salazar. He goes by Flaco. 451 00:26:27,550 --> 00:26:29,030 You met Luis Salazar? 452 00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:33,560 Yes, two weeks before the heist, Frank and Salazar asked me to help them, said 453 00:26:33,560 --> 00:26:36,820 they would cut me in. Do you see Luis Salazar in this courtroom? 454 00:26:37,900 --> 00:26:38,900 Right there. 455 00:26:38,920 --> 00:26:40,160 He's sitting right there. 456 00:26:40,380 --> 00:26:43,440 Your Honor, let the record reflect that the witnesses identified the defendant, 457 00:26:43,660 --> 00:26:46,000 Luis Salazar. The record shall still reflect. 458 00:26:46,300 --> 00:26:49,600 What help did you provide in the robbery? 459 00:26:49,860 --> 00:26:51,560 I rebooted the museum CCTV. 460 00:26:52,620 --> 00:26:57,920 to turn the cameras off, smuggled out extra security guard outfits and ID 461 00:26:57,920 --> 00:27:02,300 that I reported as lost so Frank and Salazar could have access to the 462 00:27:02,600 --> 00:27:07,100 And on the morning of the murder, did you see the defendant? 463 00:27:07,540 --> 00:27:11,220 Yes. After I rebooted the cameras, I went upstairs to make sure Frank and 464 00:27:11,220 --> 00:27:13,820 Salazar got inside okay. They were there, so I went back downstairs. 465 00:27:14,200 --> 00:27:15,200 Thank you. Nothing further. 466 00:27:17,960 --> 00:27:22,100 Mr. Whitaker, you testified earlier that the police threatened to... 467 00:27:22,490 --> 00:27:25,090 To charge you with felony murder if you didn't testify today? 468 00:27:25,470 --> 00:27:27,990 Yes, I cut a deal for reduced charges. 469 00:27:28,270 --> 00:27:33,170 So you're a criminal, a criminal who swore to defend the Atlas Museum of Art 470 00:27:33,170 --> 00:27:37,110 robbed it instead, and now to avoid responsibility, you've agreed to lie in 471 00:27:37,110 --> 00:27:38,430 court. Objection sustained. 472 00:27:38,650 --> 00:27:39,730 Watch it, Mr. 473 00:27:39,930 --> 00:27:40,930 Wood. 474 00:27:42,070 --> 00:27:43,690 How tall are you, Mr. Whitaker? 475 00:27:44,230 --> 00:27:48,730 I'm about 5 '7". Did you tell the police that the defendant was about your 476 00:27:48,730 --> 00:27:49,730 height? 477 00:27:49,790 --> 00:27:51,790 Yeah, I think so. 478 00:27:52,200 --> 00:27:54,560 I'm confused. Mr. Salazar is six foot one. 479 00:27:55,380 --> 00:27:59,520 Okay. You didn't actually witness the shooting of Cecil Carbo, did you? 480 00:28:00,680 --> 00:28:02,580 No. And when you allegedly saw Mr. 481 00:28:02,780 --> 00:28:07,220 Salazar inside the museum on the day of Mr. Carbo's death, you're sure it was 482 00:28:07,220 --> 00:28:08,220 him? 483 00:28:08,740 --> 00:28:09,659 Uh, yeah. 484 00:28:09,660 --> 00:28:13,080 Because the prosecutors seem to think that the men who did this were wearing 485 00:28:13,080 --> 00:28:14,080 masks. He was. 486 00:28:14,340 --> 00:28:15,980 Then how did you recognize him? 487 00:28:16,350 --> 00:28:19,570 I don't know. You don't know, or this wasn't part of the dress rehearsal with 488 00:28:19,570 --> 00:28:20,229 the DM? 489 00:28:20,230 --> 00:28:21,230 Objection sustained. 490 00:28:21,570 --> 00:28:25,310 Look, I went up there, and I looked him in the eyes, and he nodded just like we 491 00:28:25,310 --> 00:28:26,310 planned. It was him. 492 00:28:26,630 --> 00:28:29,870 And I remember everything about it, okay? We were standing under an exit 493 00:28:29,870 --> 00:28:31,390 outside the room where the crown was. 494 00:28:31,770 --> 00:28:35,590 I remember there was a dude on crutches next to us. I remember I was worried he 495 00:28:35,590 --> 00:28:37,970 was going to take forever to get out of there once the heist started. 496 00:28:38,440 --> 00:28:44,820 I thought the ID badge Souser had on my old badge that I reported as lost, okay? 497 00:28:44,960 --> 00:28:48,180 I remember it all, okay? I'm not lying. 498 00:28:55,980 --> 00:28:57,580 Well, that wasn't super fun. 499 00:28:58,060 --> 00:29:01,590 Agreed. Our star witness got beat up pretty good. 500 00:29:01,910 --> 00:29:05,990 Well, you did mention something new, though. A guy on crutches, a museum 501 00:29:05,990 --> 00:29:09,450 that was on the second floor while the shooting and robbery unfolded. 502 00:29:09,750 --> 00:29:12,790 It's possible that he was having a hard time leaving the building. 503 00:29:12,990 --> 00:29:13,990 He could be a witness? 504 00:29:14,310 --> 00:29:18,290 Something. I've taken a few hits on this one. It'd be great to claw some of that 505 00:29:18,290 --> 00:29:19,290 back. 506 00:29:19,510 --> 00:29:20,510 It's a good idea. 507 00:29:21,960 --> 00:29:26,340 Cameras inside the museum were down at the detectives to review exterior 508 00:29:26,340 --> 00:29:29,680 footage, see if they can find a man on crutches leaving the museum. 509 00:29:33,620 --> 00:29:38,300 Yeah, I fell off a stupid ladder, busted my calcaneus. 510 00:29:39,420 --> 00:29:40,560 I never heard of it either. 511 00:29:41,160 --> 00:29:42,160 Heel bone. 512 00:29:42,680 --> 00:29:44,220 Still can't put any weight on it. 513 00:29:44,580 --> 00:29:45,580 Such a drag. 514 00:29:47,480 --> 00:29:48,600 How'd you even find me? 515 00:29:49,150 --> 00:29:52,870 You were the only one who fled the art museum that morning on crutches. 516 00:29:53,170 --> 00:29:57,470 Our detectives found security footage from across the street, and you popped 517 00:29:57,470 --> 00:29:58,470 facial recognition. 518 00:29:58,490 --> 00:30:01,370 You're not in any trouble. To the contrary, we need your help. 519 00:30:02,070 --> 00:30:03,790 Is it true you were there that morning? 520 00:30:04,450 --> 00:30:06,550 Yeah, I went to see the Crown. 521 00:30:06,990 --> 00:30:10,090 I dropped by once a week or so. That thing's a big deal. 522 00:30:10,590 --> 00:30:13,150 Were you close enough to the robbery to see what transpired? 523 00:30:13,370 --> 00:30:15,130 No, but I heard everything. 524 00:30:16,030 --> 00:30:17,030 Walk us through it. 525 00:30:17,810 --> 00:30:21,470 Well, the thieves walked around first, making some big announcement, said there 526 00:30:21,470 --> 00:30:22,650 was some sort of private event. 527 00:30:22,910 --> 00:30:24,230 Right, to clear out the area. 528 00:30:24,610 --> 00:30:28,290 Exactly. I'm such a slowpoke these days, it was taking me forever to get out of 529 00:30:28,290 --> 00:30:32,970 there. I saw the guy that died run in there, and then I hear them all start 530 00:30:32,970 --> 00:30:35,250 screaming at each other, and then, bang, bang! 531 00:30:36,190 --> 00:30:39,910 I was terrified. I just got behind the nearest thing I could find, some 532 00:30:39,910 --> 00:30:42,870 sculpture, to kind of ride it out till the coast was clear. 533 00:30:43,610 --> 00:30:44,770 What else did you hear? 534 00:30:45,810 --> 00:30:46,810 The bad guys. 535 00:30:47,210 --> 00:30:48,210 They were pissed. 536 00:30:48,610 --> 00:30:50,890 Didn't sound like this was part of the plan, killing anybody. 537 00:30:51,430 --> 00:30:53,390 One guy goes, damn it. 538 00:30:53,710 --> 00:30:56,570 The other guy goes, Leonard better deliver. 539 00:31:04,990 --> 00:31:08,230 You know, to this day, my mom yells at me if I don't pray before I eat. 540 00:31:10,150 --> 00:31:15,370 Never understood the point. It's like talking on the phone and there's nobody 541 00:31:15,370 --> 00:31:16,370 the other end. 542 00:31:17,420 --> 00:31:18,960 But, do me a favor? 543 00:31:19,480 --> 00:31:21,740 Pray that we figure out who this Leonard is. 544 00:31:22,980 --> 00:31:25,520 I think your prayers have been answered. 545 00:31:26,220 --> 00:31:30,920 Got a hit in the ATU database. An import -export guy in Canarsie. 546 00:31:31,500 --> 00:31:32,640 Leonard Huckin. 547 00:31:33,440 --> 00:31:38,320 A lot of guys named Leonard out there. For sure, but this guy is Salazar's 548 00:31:38,320 --> 00:31:39,320 uncle. 549 00:31:48,780 --> 00:31:50,700 Mr. Hawkins, do you own a business? 550 00:31:51,340 --> 00:31:57,300 Yes. I am the president and sole employee of an LLC called MPH Import 551 00:31:57,700 --> 00:31:59,780 I sell items and buy items. 552 00:32:00,720 --> 00:32:02,900 Art, watches, jewelry, you name it. 553 00:32:03,360 --> 00:32:05,380 Sounds like a pawn shop. 554 00:32:05,720 --> 00:32:09,060 I prefer import -export, thank you. So do my clients. 555 00:32:09,400 --> 00:32:12,000 My business requires a certain amount of discretion. 556 00:32:12,440 --> 00:32:16,360 And the defendant, Luis Salazar, is it true that he is your nephew? 557 00:32:17,020 --> 00:32:18,020 Yeah, kind of. 558 00:32:18,460 --> 00:32:19,940 Can you explain that to the jury? 559 00:32:20,420 --> 00:32:22,160 Well, he's my nephew by marriage. 560 00:32:22,760 --> 00:32:25,080 Except I'm not married to the family anymore. 561 00:32:25,600 --> 00:32:28,460 For 12 years, I was married to his mother's sister. 562 00:32:28,980 --> 00:32:31,000 We don't talk much, ever, really. 563 00:32:31,620 --> 00:32:34,560 I always thought he was kind of a screw -up, honestly. 564 00:32:34,900 --> 00:32:40,920 And yet, did Mr. Salazar have occasion to call you just prior to February 18th, 565 00:32:40,920 --> 00:32:42,540 the day of Cecil Carbo's murder? 566 00:32:43,120 --> 00:32:45,280 Yes, he did. It was four days before. 567 00:32:45,520 --> 00:32:46,520 To say what? 568 00:32:46,940 --> 00:32:49,960 He asked if I could move an expensive piece of art. 569 00:32:50,320 --> 00:32:51,840 And did he mention what it might be? 570 00:32:53,180 --> 00:32:54,180 Hell no. 571 00:32:54,500 --> 00:32:57,920 I mean, if I'd have known, I would have told him he was insane, which he clearly 572 00:32:57,920 --> 00:32:59,120 did. Objection, Your Honor. 573 00:32:59,480 --> 00:33:00,480 Sustained. 574 00:33:01,060 --> 00:33:05,580 All he told me was that it wasn't a painting. It was more like jewels, gold, 575 00:33:05,580 --> 00:33:09,280 emeralds. Did the defendant contact you after the day of the theft? 576 00:33:10,080 --> 00:33:11,960 Yes. And what did he say? 577 00:33:12,380 --> 00:33:13,580 He said that he... 578 00:33:14,640 --> 00:33:18,000 That the thing that he was going to do, that he actually did it. 579 00:33:18,280 --> 00:33:22,900 And what did you interpret that to mean? That he stole the thing that he was 580 00:33:22,900 --> 00:33:23,900 going to steal. 581 00:33:24,220 --> 00:33:25,680 Thank you. Nothing further. 582 00:33:38,980 --> 00:33:41,480 Mr. Baxter, Mr. Wood is here to see you. 583 00:33:42,100 --> 00:33:44,060 Louise Collins, our defense lawyer, to see me? 584 00:33:44,520 --> 00:33:45,499 He's not alone. 585 00:33:45,500 --> 00:33:46,840 He's with the Archbishop. 586 00:33:48,180 --> 00:33:49,880 Okay. Send him in. 587 00:33:55,020 --> 00:33:56,020 Gentlemen. 588 00:33:56,920 --> 00:33:58,360 Thank you for seeing us. 589 00:33:59,020 --> 00:34:00,020 Please, have a seat. 590 00:34:01,180 --> 00:34:02,840 I wasn't aware the two of you knew each other. 591 00:34:03,540 --> 00:34:07,140 Mr. Wood and I have been in conversation about our mutual interest. 592 00:34:07,960 --> 00:34:08,960 Which is? 593 00:34:10,600 --> 00:34:12,320 The crown of Papillon. 594 00:34:14,199 --> 00:34:18,260 Anything concerning the Salazar case, you should be talking to Nolan Price, 595 00:34:18,260 --> 00:34:23,460 me. We felt that this should involve the full weight of your office, you. 596 00:34:24,560 --> 00:34:25,920 We'd like to discuss a plea. 597 00:34:26,260 --> 00:34:28,840 From what I understand, the case is pretty much over. 598 00:34:29,580 --> 00:34:31,840 Why would we possibly consider a plea now? 599 00:34:32,199 --> 00:34:33,980 We're prepared to have the crown returned. 600 00:34:35,480 --> 00:34:37,400 That doesn't sound like it involves me at all. 601 00:34:40,820 --> 00:34:41,820 There's the price tag. 602 00:34:44,270 --> 00:34:46,530 And I don't suppose you'd consider doing the right thing. 603 00:34:47,510 --> 00:34:50,110 Just because it's the right thing to do. I know that's asking a lot. 604 00:34:53,909 --> 00:34:57,030 Mr. Wood, could you give us a moment alone, please? 605 00:35:05,590 --> 00:35:12,330 Nick, I feel like over the years, you and I, we got a fair read on each other, 606 00:35:12,410 --> 00:35:14,100 right? I think so. 607 00:35:14,540 --> 00:35:17,240 So then I can tell you this without it feeling like an attack. 608 00:35:17,480 --> 00:35:19,040 It's not. It's an observation. 609 00:35:20,060 --> 00:35:22,460 You're not an overtly religious person. 610 00:35:23,120 --> 00:35:25,100 Devout. Like your father. 611 00:35:26,840 --> 00:35:31,080 I have my own beliefs, but... Yeah, that's probably true. 612 00:35:31,680 --> 00:35:35,120 But you are a student of history and someone who could appreciate 613 00:35:35,120 --> 00:35:37,740 that might not be your own. 614 00:35:38,660 --> 00:35:39,660 Thank you, I think. 615 00:35:40,120 --> 00:35:41,300 I'd like to think that's true. 616 00:35:41,980 --> 00:35:42,980 Here's one. 617 00:35:43,050 --> 00:35:47,350 I would encourage you not to think of the crown of Papillon as an object. 618 00:35:48,790 --> 00:35:49,790 Okay? 619 00:35:51,250 --> 00:35:52,250 Tell me. 620 00:35:53,050 --> 00:35:59,790 The crown of Papillon is proof, right here on Earth, of God's grace. 621 00:36:00,910 --> 00:36:02,850 It draws us closer to God. 622 00:36:03,590 --> 00:36:05,070 Millions of people believe that. 623 00:36:05,790 --> 00:36:06,890 That sounds lovely. 624 00:36:08,310 --> 00:36:09,450 Comforting. I mean that. 625 00:36:11,310 --> 00:36:15,190 Many of them are right here in New York, your constituents, the people whose 626 00:36:15,190 --> 00:36:17,750 interest you were elected to serve. 627 00:36:20,570 --> 00:36:25,850 To refuse this offer would mean sacrificing the spiritual good of the 628 00:36:25,850 --> 00:36:29,610 for the emotional satisfaction of punishment. 629 00:36:36,990 --> 00:36:38,670 Mercy is not weakness, Nick. 630 00:36:40,810 --> 00:36:41,810 Please. 631 00:36:54,830 --> 00:36:55,910 We're doing what? 632 00:36:56,670 --> 00:37:01,910 In exchange for reducing charges and advocating for a lenient sentence, Luis 633 00:37:01,910 --> 00:37:04,170 Salazar will reveal the location of the crime. 634 00:37:04,390 --> 00:37:08,690 No, I understood the offer. I don't understand why we're even considering 635 00:37:09,230 --> 00:37:14,230 This is nothing but an act of desperation at the 11th hour. We have 636 00:37:14,230 --> 00:37:19,090 dead to rights. I'm confident the jury will return a guilty verdict tomorrow 637 00:37:19,090 --> 00:37:21,650 morning. I'm not sure that's the math on this one. 638 00:37:21,870 --> 00:37:23,910 No, it's the only math that matters. 639 00:37:24,190 --> 00:37:27,790 We are holding a man to account for murder. This thing? 640 00:37:28,870 --> 00:37:31,990 It's just a thing. It's immaterial, Nick. 641 00:37:32,270 --> 00:37:33,830 This isn't a debate, Nolan. 642 00:37:35,200 --> 00:37:39,240 Prosecutorial discretion exists precisely for cases like this. We're not 643 00:37:39,240 --> 00:37:43,040 solely satisfy a lust for maximum punishment. We're here to protect the 644 00:37:43,040 --> 00:37:47,320 interest, which in this case is more complicated than a prison term. 645 00:37:48,400 --> 00:37:52,620 It doesn't matter that I don't believe what you're saying, Nick. I don't think 646 00:37:52,620 --> 00:37:53,620 you do either. 647 00:37:54,540 --> 00:37:55,540 All right. 648 00:37:56,080 --> 00:37:59,160 I keep forgetting how you really feel about me. Come on, Nick. 649 00:37:59,690 --> 00:38:02,990 Let's at least be honest about why this is really happening. There are two and a 650 00:38:02,990 --> 00:38:05,510 half million Catholics in New York. They vote. 651 00:38:06,190 --> 00:38:08,010 That is why this is happening. You're wrong. 652 00:38:08,770 --> 00:38:12,370 If we drop this to murder two and recommend the low end of the sentencing 653 00:38:12,370 --> 00:38:17,070 and bring the crown home in one piece, that is a win for the many, many people 654 00:38:17,070 --> 00:38:18,070 who believe in this thing. 655 00:38:18,290 --> 00:38:22,150 That means it's a win for the city of New York, and that means it's a win for 656 00:38:22,150 --> 00:38:25,070 us. For God's sake, there's an argument to be made. The crown doesn't even 657 00:38:25,070 --> 00:38:26,990 belong to the church. That is not our concern. 658 00:38:27,570 --> 00:38:28,570 Right. 659 00:38:29,280 --> 00:38:31,500 Not a lot of indigenous Colombians around here. 660 00:38:31,740 --> 00:38:32,479 I'm done. 661 00:38:32,480 --> 00:38:33,480 Make the deal. 662 00:38:42,380 --> 00:38:45,180 Today is not about what was lost. 663 00:38:46,080 --> 00:38:48,520 Today is about what was found. 664 00:38:49,200 --> 00:38:51,000 About the resilience of faith. 665 00:38:52,880 --> 00:38:56,820 What happened here caused so much pain, confusion, even anger. 666 00:38:57,400 --> 00:38:59,960 But I would argue that we are better for it. 667 00:39:00,900 --> 00:39:02,080 Gold will tarnish. 668 00:39:02,340 --> 00:39:04,240 Emeralds will crumble to dust. 669 00:39:04,800 --> 00:39:08,720 But what the crown of Papillon proclaims is eternal. 670 00:39:09,900 --> 00:39:12,160 Gratitude is stronger than greed. 671 00:39:12,400 --> 00:39:15,300 And God does not abandon his people. 672 00:39:15,960 --> 00:39:20,520 And finally, I would like to thank Nicholas Baxter, our esteemed district 673 00:39:20,520 --> 00:39:23,700 attorney, for making this happen. Thank you, Your Eminence. 674 00:39:31,180 --> 00:39:34,560 Not a mention of Cecil. Not one word. 675 00:39:34,780 --> 00:39:39,180 Mrs. Carbo, I know... That you people promised us that you'd do everything to 676 00:39:39,180 --> 00:39:43,020 get justice for Cecil. The man who did this has pleaded guilty. He's going to 677 00:39:43,020 --> 00:39:45,780 prison for 15 years. So he'll be out before he turns 40. 678 00:39:46,120 --> 00:39:48,400 Why does he get a life but my dad doesn't? 679 00:39:51,480 --> 00:39:55,840 As prosecutors, we are not here just to... 680 00:39:56,590 --> 00:40:01,750 satisfy a lust for punishment, we also have to protect the public interest, 681 00:40:02,010 --> 00:40:08,110 which in this case, it got complicated. 682 00:40:13,930 --> 00:40:16,930 Do you even believe the words coming out of your mouth?
