In the criminal justice system

00:00:02,700 --> 00:00:06,610
the people are represented by two
separate yet equally important groups,

the police
who investigate crime

4
00:00:08,540 --> 00:00:11,350
and the district attorneys
who prosecute the offenders.

5
00:00:11,410 --> 00:00:13,040

00:00:20,750 --> 00:00:23,200
Okay, I said
near corner or far...

We know who he is?

13
00:00:30,590 --> 00:00:33,870
No wallet, no ID. But
judging how he's dressed,

14
00:00:34,560 --> 00:00:36,600
I'd say he ain't a homeboy.

What do you think?
Stick and pick?

21
00:00:51,580 --> 00:00:52,720
Either that, or he figured out

22
00:00:52,780 --> 00:00:54,350
a hell of a way to
beat a cab fare.

23

What about the cabbie?
OFFICER: Harish Singh.

24
00:00:56,290 --> 00:00:58,230
Says the pickup was
on 42nd near Lex

25

and that another guy
helped the old man in.

26

Thinks that it was
that guy who was the one

00:01:02,260 --> 00:01:03,630
who gave him the address
where to go.

Where else?

it wasn't his day either.

Tell us about the guy
who helped the old man.

37
00:01:19,580 --> 00:01:21,050
He was black.

38
00:01:22,180 --> 00:01:24,590
Young, wearing a
green baseball cap.

39
00:01:24,650 --> 00:01:26,850
Some... Some blue
running clothes.

40
00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:28,260
He say anything about
your passenger?

41
00:01:28,320 --> 00:01:31,130
No. Just said to go to
125th and Amsterdam.

42
00:01:31,190 --> 00:01:33,100
Did he touch the door handle?

43

I don't know.

receipt was for toilet paper,

52
00:02:42,820 --> 00:02:45,600
toothpaste and some cough medicine.
Paid for in cash.

53
00:02:45,660 --> 00:02:47,640
Purchase like that, the guy
probably lives nearby.

54

a Paul Stuart suit.

I'm betting he goes
to the best.

Well, canvass the cleaners, and work
your way out from the Rite Aid.

I'm not sure. But this
guy don't look so good.

Mr. Grimaldi lived alone,
about five, six years now.

His wife.
Real sweet lady.

67

She died a few years back.

68
00:03:27,140 --> 00:03:29,080
What she was doing with the
guy is anybody's guess.

69
00:03:29,140 --> 00:03:30,170
Why do you say that?

70
00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:32,510
Grimaldi was tough.
Real old school.

71
00:03:32,570 --> 00:03:34,610
Not a guy with too many
nice words to say.

72
00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:36,280
And parting with a dollar
wasn't his thing either.

73
00:03:36,340 --> 00:03:37,380
He would have fought back.

74
00:03:37,450 --> 00:03:39,150
That's probably what
got him killed.

75
00:03:39,210 --> 00:03:40,520
Any other next of kin?

76
00:03:40,580 --> 00:03:41,620
Son and daughter,

77
00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:43,790
but they don't come around
much since the mother died.

78
00:03:43,850 --> 00:03:45,630
He lives in Philly with his
wife and kid, I think.

79
00:03:45,690 --> 00:03:47,030
And her I'm not too sure about.

80
00:03:47,090 --> 00:03:49,400
See if you can get their numbers
from the managing agent.

Sure.

82
00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:51,900
Any idea what he did
for a living?

83
00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:55,170
Retired. But I think he was
an insurance salesman once.

84
00:03:55,230 --> 00:03:56,900
He's in good hands now.

85
00:03:56,970 --> 00:04:00,070
Hey, cabbie said he picked him
up on 42nd and Lex, right?

86
00:04:00,140 --> 00:04:02,710
Yeah. Bank account
on Lexington Avenue.

87
00:04:03,810 --> 00:04:07,380
Mr. Grimaldi was a customer
here for over 30 years.

88
00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:09,120
He used to come in
all the time.

89
00:04:09,180 --> 00:04:10,620
Only worked
a few blocks from here.

It's a shame.

93
00:04:15,920 --> 00:04:17,230

00:04:17,290 --> 00:04:18,660
In what way?

95
00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:22,290
He's what you'd call an old-fashioned
American success story.

96

Immigrated from Italy.

97

Worked 40 years
for the same company.

98
00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:28,100
A real dying breed.

99
00:04:28,260 --> 00:04:31,370
Do know if maybe he
cashed a check that day?

100
00:04:31,430 --> 00:04:34,410
Or maybe somebody saw him
with a large amount of money?

101
00:04:34,470 --> 00:04:37,140
I checked our security
tapes after you called.

102
00:04:37,210 --> 00:04:39,520
Mr. Grimaldi didn't
use a teller that day.

103
00:04:39,570 --> 00:04:41,350
He went straight
to the vault area.

104
00:04:41,410 --> 00:04:42,720
Safe deposit box.

105
00:04:42,780 --> 00:04:45,120
He opened one
about 10 years ago.

106
00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:49,080
Doesn't seem to
have used it much.

107
00:04:49,150 --> 00:04:50,990
Any chance we could
take a look inside?

108
00:04:51,650 --> 00:04:53,720
You'd just be
wasting your time.

109
00:04:53,790 --> 00:04:56,400
He closed it that day.
It's empty.

Here are some shots from
the bank's video tape.

113
00:05:02,460 --> 00:05:04,910
Then 14 minutes later,
he leaves.

Still has his briefcase.

00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:02,660
Anything on
the apartment search?

162
00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:04,320
No briefcase, no knife.

163
00:07:04,390 --> 00:07:06,960
Bring in some of the witnesses
from the ATM machines

164
00:07:07,020 --> 00:07:08,520
and see if someone can
put him at the scene.

165
00:07:08,590 --> 00:07:09,860
You got it.

166
00:07:09,930 --> 00:07:11,560
I hear you went
in hot pursuit today.

167
00:07:11,630 --> 00:07:13,470
Yeah. He tried to
climb out the window.

168
00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:15,040
I'm surprised
you didn't push him.

169
00:07:15,860 --> 00:07:17,100
Me, too.

170
00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:21,010
(DOOR CLOSES)

171
00:07:21,540 --> 00:07:25,180
VAN BUREN: Just tell us if you
see anyone who looks familiar.

172
00:07:25,740 --> 00:07:27,720
It's hard to say.

173
00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:31,750
I think number four.

174
00:07:32,250 --> 00:07:34,750
And where do
you recognize him from?

175
00:07:35,950 --> 00:07:38,260
I think he was the man
I saw helping

176
00:07:38,320 --> 00:07:40,530
the older man get into the cab.

177
00:07:40,590 --> 00:07:42,070
Are you sure?

178
00:07:44,490 --> 00:07:47,200
Best I can say is I think so.

179
00:07:47,500 --> 00:07:49,770
Okay. Thank you,
Mrs. Drummond.

180
00:07:52,700 --> 00:07:55,200
I think my client should
be released immediately.

181
00:07:55,270 --> 00:07:57,910
That's for the D.A.
handling the case.

182
00:07:58,040 --> 00:07:59,380
What case?

183
00:08:02,380 --> 00:08:05,220
His lawyer's right. I can't
indict on a "think so."

184
00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:07,820
Well, what about the
prints and the ATM photos?

185
00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:09,260
All good
circumstantial evidence,

186
00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:10,590
if we had an ID.
(CELL PHONE RINGING)

187
00:08:10,650 --> 00:08:11,650
Green.

188
00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:14,290
So what? You just gonna
kick this guy loose?

189
00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:16,460
Lennie, I called
his parole officer.

190
00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:18,730
She dropped a violation on
him based on your arrest.

191
00:08:18,790 --> 00:08:20,860
He is not going anywhere.

192
00:08:20,930 --> 00:08:24,570
That was the M.E. Roland Dell
may only be half our problem.

193
00:08:25,030 --> 00:08:28,540
Grimaldi had a six-inch
stab wound to his abdomen.

194
00:08:29,670 --> 00:08:32,210
He also had a bullet wound
under his left armpit.

195
00:08:32,270 --> 00:08:34,180
This guy was stabbed and shot?

196
00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:35,880
New York's a tough town.

197
00:08:35,940 --> 00:08:37,650
How'd CSU miss it?

198
00:08:37,850 --> 00:08:39,190
There was no exit wound.

199
00:08:39,250 --> 00:08:42,060
And the entrance was hidden
under the hair in the armpit.

200
00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:43,960
I only found it when
IX-rayed the body.

201
00:08:44,020 --> 00:08:45,260
Well, could this guy
have been shot

202
00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:46,360
and made it to the cab?

203
00:08:46,420 --> 00:08:47,590
Hey, Reagan never
knew he was shot

204
00:08:47,660 --> 00:08:49,830
till he got to Bethesda Naval.

205
00:08:50,090 --> 00:08:52,470
So what killed him?
The knife or the gun?

206
00:08:52,530 --> 00:08:54,060
Take your pick.

207
00:08:54,130 --> 00:08:56,200
Roland Dell stabbed a dead man.

208
00:08:56,260 --> 00:08:58,010
Couldn't even get that right.

209
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:03,610
Video has him
leaving the bank at 2:34.

210
00:09:03,670 --> 00:09:06,350
Here, he is
passing the ATM at 2:37.

211
00:09:06,410 --> 00:09:08,120
Three minutes to walk 15 feet?

212
00:09:08,180 --> 00:09:10,520
Maybe he stopped
to tie his shoe.

213
00:09:10,580 --> 00:09:12,920
Briefcase is
in his right hand now.

214
00:09:12,980 --> 00:09:15,480
Well, it was in his left
hand when he left the bank.

215
00:09:15,550 --> 00:09:17,190
Maybe he switched
when he got shot.

216
00:09:17,250 --> 00:09:18,790
What do we have
from ballistics?

217
00:09:18,850 --> 00:09:20,330
They're having trouble
IDing the round.

218
00:09:20,390 --> 00:09:21,560
Seems like a lot of folks

219
00:09:21,620 --> 00:09:22,730
were waiting for this man

220
00:09:22,790 --> 00:09:24,270
to come out of that bank.

221
00:09:24,330 --> 00:09:27,140
Wonder what they knew about the
deposit box that we don't.

222
00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:29,900
Grimaldi's kids just got in
to ID the body.

223
00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:31,940
Maybe they have an idea.

224
00:09:35,470 --> 00:09:38,080
Our father is shot and stabbed
on one of the busiest streets

225
00:09:38,140 --> 00:09:40,550
in Manhattan, and no
one even noticed?

226
00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:42,750
The cabbie was on a cell phone.

227
00:09:42,810 --> 00:09:45,020
Plus, midtown
and it was raining.

228
00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:46,650
But you don't believe
this was random?

229
00:09:47,350 --> 00:09:49,660
We think the perpetrators
were after whatever

230
00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:52,530
your father kept in
that safe deposit box.

231
00:09:53,190 --> 00:09:56,570
I didn't even know he had a
safe deposit box. Did you?

232
00:09:56,720 --> 00:09:57,730
No.

233
00:09:57,830 --> 00:10:00,270
Well, was he the kind of person
that kept a lot of cash on him?

234
00:10:00,330 --> 00:10:02,640
Our father never
discussed his finances.

235
00:10:02,700 --> 00:10:04,400
He lived on a pension.

236
00:10:04,470 --> 00:10:06,070
Is there any kind
of inheritance?

237
00:10:06,130 --> 00:10:08,410
Maybe from your mother?
Some stocks?

238
00:10:08,470 --> 00:10:09,950
Anything somebody
might have known about?

239
00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:11,380
I don't think so.

240
00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:13,010
Was there anyone
he was close to?

241
00:10:13,070 --> 00:10:15,110
JORDAN: Most of our father's
friends have passed away.

242
00:10:15,180 --> 00:10:16,180
What about Gail?

243
00:10:16,340 --> 00:10:18,450
Gail?
Gail Bartlet.

244
00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:22,580
Since our mom died,
she's been Dad's friend.

245
00:10:22,650 --> 00:10:24,990
He was with her
before Mom died.

246
00:10:25,450 --> 00:10:27,930
Jordan said that?
I'm surprised.

247
00:10:28,420 --> 00:10:31,100
Their mother was very ill for
several years before she died,

248
00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:33,070
and Peter and I became friends.

249
00:10:33,500 --> 00:10:35,130
His kids were
under the impression

250
00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:37,110
that he might have
confided in you.

251
00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:39,580
Peter rarely spoke to
either of his children.

252
00:10:39,630 --> 00:10:41,050
He wasn't what you would call

253
00:10:41,100 --> 00:10:43,210
an intimate type
of man, Detective.

254
00:10:43,270 --> 00:10:47,340
He... He rarely confided
in anyone, even me.

255
00:10:47,710 --> 00:10:53,520
But there was a certain charm
about Peter, an energy.

256
00:10:54,520 --> 00:10:56,220
Uh, can you think of any reason

257
00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:58,260
why somebody would have
wanted to hurt him?

258
00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:02,960
A few weeks ago, actually,

259
00:11:03,320 --> 00:11:05,000
the doorbell rang.

260
00:11:05,260 --> 00:11:08,870
Peter answered it
and I heard him yelling.

261
00:11:09,100 --> 00:11:10,800
Did you see who
he was yelling at?

262
00:11:10,870 --> 00:11:14,370
No. But when he came
back into the room, I...

263
00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:17,710
He was very angry, and I
asked him what was wrong,

264
00:11:17,770 --> 00:11:19,620
and he... he said
the doorman

265
00:11:19,670 --> 00:11:21,950
had let someone up
he wasn't supposed to.

266
00:11:22,410 --> 00:11:23,980
He say who?
No.

267
00:11:24,680 --> 00:11:28,020
But he was very upset about
it, for a few days, actually.

268
00:11:28,950 --> 00:11:30,260
A witness says
you let someone up

269
00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:32,320
to the Grimaldi place
a few weeks ago.

270
00:11:32,390 --> 00:11:33,920
Somebody he got
pretty upset about.

271
00:11:33,990 --> 00:11:35,590
I never let anybody up there.
I told him that.

272
00:11:35,660 --> 00:11:36,730
You think it did me any good?

273
00:11:36,790 --> 00:11:38,200
Well, you do know who
that person was?

274
00:11:38,260 --> 00:11:41,330
If it's the time I'm thinking
about, it was a process server.

275
00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:42,880
Grimaldi had legal problems?

276
00:11:42,930 --> 00:11:43,970
Thanks.

277
00:11:44,030 --> 00:11:46,310
I guess. This guy came
around a few times.

278
00:11:46,370 --> 00:11:48,280
He must've finally snuck up while
I was doing something else.

279
00:11:48,540 --> 00:11:49,880
You know who he worked for?

280
00:11:49,940 --> 00:11:53,890
All I know is Grimaldi tore me a
new one for letting the guy in.

281
00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:57,150
I ran Grimaldi's name through
the court's computer.

282
00:11:57,210 --> 00:11:59,490
There were no cases with
his name in a caption,

283
00:11:59,550 --> 00:12:01,490
so he isn't a plaintiff
or a defendant.

284
00:12:01,550 --> 00:12:02,720
The kids and the girlfriend

285
00:12:02,780 --> 00:12:05,060
didn't know anything
about a lawsuit either.

286
00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:08,230
He could have been involved in
litigation in some other way.

287
00:12:08,290 --> 00:12:09,960
He worked for an insurance
company, right?

288
00:12:10,020 --> 00:12:12,000
He's been retired
for over 10 years.

289
00:12:12,060 --> 00:12:13,660
MAN: Here you go.
I have an Aunt Opal.

290
00:12:13,730 --> 00:12:14,970
Slipped in a supermarket once.

291
00:12:15,030 --> 00:12:17,600
Took her 12 years
to settle her case.

292
00:12:21,340 --> 00:12:24,680
I was surprised when my
assistant gave me your message.

293
00:12:24,740 --> 00:12:27,910
Peter Grimaldi was a kind
of dinosaur around here.

294
00:12:27,980 --> 00:12:29,980
Worked for the company
for over 40 years.

295
00:12:30,040 --> 00:12:31,390
We were wondering
if he was part

296
00:12:31,450 --> 00:12:33,290
of any lawsuit
involving All-Atlantic.

297
00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:36,230
I had litigation
pull our claims.

298
00:12:36,280 --> 00:12:38,260
I'm afraid there's
nothing here.

299
00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:41,660
Which is not surprising, given
Peter sold mostly life insurance.

300
00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:43,790
Then he had a broker's
license, right?

301
00:12:43,890 --> 00:12:45,460
Of course. Why?

302
00:12:45,860 --> 00:12:48,670
Any chance he was still
doing business on the side?

303
00:12:49,900 --> 00:12:51,310
Not with us.

304
00:12:52,170 --> 00:12:56,010
Peter Grimaldi's license to sell
insurance lapsed 11 years ago.

305
00:12:56,070 --> 00:12:58,740
The last thing I see
is a letter from someone

306
00:12:58,810 --> 00:13:00,840
requesting a business
address for him,

307
00:13:00,980 --> 00:13:02,250
and that was three years ago.

308
00:13:02,310 --> 00:13:03,380
A letter about what?

309
00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:05,080
Oh, it's pretty hard to follow.

310
00:13:05,150 --> 00:13:06,520
She claimed this guy Grimaldi

311
00:13:06,580 --> 00:13:08,750
sold her family some
insurance a long time ago,

312
00:13:08,820 --> 00:13:10,090
then refused to pay.

313
00:13:10,150 --> 00:13:11,630
But you can see right there,

314
00:13:11,690 --> 00:13:14,330
she was talking about a guy
named Pietro Grimaldi,

315
00:13:14,560 --> 00:13:16,160
not Peter.

316
00:13:16,220 --> 00:13:18,730
Pietro is Peter in Italian.

317
00:13:20,090 --> 00:13:21,540
What happened to her complaint?

318
00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:22,770
Nothing.

319
00:13:22,830 --> 00:13:25,870
Like I said, we weren't
sure she had the right guy.

320
00:13:25,930 --> 00:13:28,140
Dora Wolkoff.
Bronx, New York.

321
00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:31,150
Ciao.
That means goodbye.

322
00:13:33,140 --> 00:13:36,050
Well, if you came to arrest
her, you're a year too late.

323
00:13:36,110 --> 00:13:38,060
Dora passed last December.

324
00:13:38,110 --> 00:13:39,850
Happens all the time
around here.

325
00:13:39,910 --> 00:13:41,420
Yeah, it happens
where we work, too.

326
00:13:41,480 --> 00:13:44,290
She ever mention any legal
problems she was having?

327
00:13:44,350 --> 00:13:46,090
Like what sort of problems?

328
00:13:46,150 --> 00:13:48,660
You know, like,
maybe insurance problems.

329
00:13:48,720 --> 00:13:50,730
You guys are here
about Dora's insurance?

330
00:13:50,790 --> 00:13:52,470
Actually, we're
investigating the death

331
00:13:52,530 --> 00:13:54,770
of a man named Peter Grimaldi.

332
00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:57,170
Pietro Grimaldi?

333
00:13:57,230 --> 00:13:58,570
You mean to tell me
he was a real person?

334
00:13:59,070 --> 00:14:00,100
What do you know about him?

335
00:14:00,170 --> 00:14:02,440
Dora said this Pietro Grimaldi

336
00:14:02,500 --> 00:14:04,140
sold her father
some life insurance.

337
00:14:04,210 --> 00:14:06,810
Used to say she was gonna
walk out of here a rich lady.

338
00:14:06,870 --> 00:14:08,410
So, he was real, huh?

339
00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:10,790
I guess what comes around
goes around, though.

340
00:14:10,850 --> 00:14:12,120
Why do you say that?

341
00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:14,650
Well, Dora said
this guy wouldn't pay.

342
00:14:14,720 --> 00:14:16,720
Said he'd done this thing
to a bunch of other people.

343
00:14:16,780 --> 00:14:18,560
You know,
back in the old country.

344
00:14:18,620 --> 00:14:20,960
ED: She ever mention
any other names?

345
00:14:21,020 --> 00:14:23,060
(SIGHS) I don't remember.

346
00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:24,800
But I bet
her daughter would know.

347
00:14:24,860 --> 00:14:27,000
Evie used to write letters
for them all the time.

348
00:14:27,630 --> 00:14:29,470
So, you guys finally
going to get him

349
00:14:29,530 --> 00:14:31,810
to pay the money
he owes me, or what?

350
00:14:31,870 --> 00:14:33,780
Pietro Grimaldi
was found murdered

351
00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:35,680
a few days ago, Miss Wolkoff.

352
00:14:35,740 --> 00:14:37,550
(LAUGHS)

353
00:14:38,540 --> 00:14:39,950
Was he rich?

354
00:14:40,040 --> 00:14:41,850
Why do you ask that?

355
00:14:41,910 --> 00:14:44,820
Pietro Grimaldi was an
insurance salesman, Detective.

356
00:14:44,880 --> 00:14:47,550
During the war, he traveled
through Poland and Czechoslovakia

357
00:14:47,620 --> 00:14:50,790
selling life insurance
policies to Jewish families.

358
00:14:50,850 --> 00:14:52,130
Told them their money
would be safe.

359
00:14:52,190 --> 00:14:56,430
Said he worked for an Italian
company, Federali Insurance.

360
00:14:56,490 --> 00:14:58,470
Isn't that right, Hymie?

361
00:14:58,530 --> 00:15:00,300
Yeah. (LAUGHS)

362
00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:03,100
He sold a policy to
Mr. Radzanower's family, too.

363
00:15:03,160 --> 00:15:04,910
And there's others.

364
00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:08,200
Then the war ends,
he refused to pay.

365
00:15:09,040 --> 00:15:12,950
Pietro Grimaldi took my
grandfather's last dollar

366
00:15:13,540 --> 00:15:15,890
and left my mother
with nothing.

367
00:15:16,440 --> 00:15:20,820
Wolkoff, Radzanower,
Getzler, Ribet, Frank.

368
00:15:21,780 --> 00:15:24,730
All Holocaust survivors or the
families of Holocaust victims

369
00:15:24,790 --> 00:15:28,360
who purchased life insurance
policies from Pietro Grimaldi.

370
00:15:28,420 --> 00:15:30,530
All of them stiffed by him.

371
00:15:31,360 --> 00:15:33,740
And all with a motive
to kill him.

372
00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:35,030
How many?

373
00:15:35,100 --> 00:15:36,940
VAN BUREN: Daughter
gave us 59 names.

374
00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:38,980
But she says
there could be thousands.

375
00:15:39,030 --> 00:15:42,950
Apparently Grimaldi used the
Nazis as a marketing tool,

376
00:15:43,300 --> 00:15:46,050
while figuring he'd never have
to pay off on the policies.

377
00:15:46,110 --> 00:15:48,140
I have an appointment
with the Italian Consulate.

378
00:15:48,210 --> 00:15:50,850
We'll see what they know
about Federali Insurance.

379
00:15:51,610 --> 00:15:53,490
Just when you thought that
there weren't any more ways

380
00:15:53,550 --> 00:15:56,650
to violate these people,
an insurance scam.

381
00:16:00,490 --> 00:16:03,160
The Italian government
subpoenaed Grimaldi.

382
00:16:03,220 --> 00:16:05,500
We recently started an
investigation into allegations

383
00:16:05,560 --> 00:16:07,800
that certain Italian
insurance companies

384
00:16:07,860 --> 00:16:12,110
sold life insurance policies to
Jewish families in Eastern Europe

385
00:16:12,170 --> 00:16:14,870
during the war and
then refused to pay.

386
00:16:14,940 --> 00:16:16,070
Refused why?

387
00:16:16,300 --> 00:16:17,980
The companies claim there
is no documentation

388
00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:19,880
the policies were ever issued.

389
00:16:19,940 --> 00:16:22,080
And now most of these
companies don't even exist.

390
00:16:22,140 --> 00:16:24,950
What about the company
Grimaldi worked for in Italy,

391
00:16:25,010 --> 00:16:26,080
Federali Insurance?

392
00:16:26,150 --> 00:16:27,320
Bankrupt.

393
00:16:27,380 --> 00:16:30,730
We traced over 1,100 policies
to Federali Insurance.

394
00:16:31,920 --> 00:16:33,460
But without Peter
Grimaldi's testimony,

395
00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:35,830
I'm afraid the truth
may never be known.

396
00:16:35,890 --> 00:16:36,990
Sounds like
a pretty good motive

397
00:16:37,060 --> 00:16:38,730
to make sure he didn't testify.

398
00:16:38,790 --> 00:16:39,860
Yes.

399
00:16:39,930 --> 00:16:42,500
Could I get copies of
your files on Federali?

400
00:16:42,560 --> 00:16:45,740
I'd like for one of our forensic
accountants to examine them.

401
00:16:47,200 --> 00:16:49,510
Aren't we just a little
out of our jurisdiction?

402
00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:50,950
Maybe not.

403
00:16:51,810 --> 00:16:54,340
When Federali Insurance
filed for bankruptcy,

404
00:16:54,410 --> 00:16:55,980
they listed their
outstanding policies.

405
00:16:56,940 --> 00:16:59,150
Anyone from
Evelyn Wolkoff's list?

406
00:16:59,210 --> 00:17:02,960
No. But there were several
American policy holders.

407
00:17:05,020 --> 00:17:08,230
Who goes to Italy to buy
life insurance during a war?

408
00:17:08,390 --> 00:17:09,600
No one.

409
00:17:09,660 --> 00:17:11,640
The policies were purchased
at a brokerage here

410
00:17:11,690 --> 00:17:13,100
in New York.

411
00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:17,040
A brokerage in New York
sold Federali's policies?

412
00:17:17,830 --> 00:17:19,680
Guess who owned the brokerage.

413
00:17:23,100 --> 00:17:24,410
All-Atlantic.

414
00:17:24,870 --> 00:17:26,910
Because guess
who owned Federali.

415
00:17:28,580 --> 00:17:30,060
All-Atlantic.

416
00:17:31,180 --> 00:17:33,020
I believe I've already
told your two detectives

417
00:17:33,080 --> 00:17:35,720
everything we knew
about Mr. Grimaldi.

418
00:17:36,150 --> 00:17:38,030
Strange you never
mentioned the fact

419
00:17:38,090 --> 00:17:40,030
All-Atlantic owned
the Italian company

420
00:17:40,090 --> 00:17:42,160
Grimaldi worked for
during the war.

421
00:17:42,220 --> 00:17:44,070
I don't see how
that's relevant.

422
00:17:44,130 --> 00:17:46,440
As a subsidiary,
All-Atlantic is liable

423
00:17:46,490 --> 00:17:48,600
for any policy
written by Federali.

424
00:17:48,830 --> 00:17:51,070
JACK: You see the relevance
now, Mr. Bresler?

425
00:17:51,230 --> 00:17:54,110
STEWART: We have never
hidden from our obligations.

426
00:17:54,170 --> 00:17:57,170
If you have any
specific policy numbers,

427
00:17:57,240 --> 00:17:59,510
we'd be happy
to check our records.

428
00:17:59,710 --> 00:18:01,450
I think you know we don't.

429
00:18:01,840 --> 00:18:03,820
We're wondering
if Grimaldi did.

430
00:18:03,980 --> 00:18:10,090
Look, it's possible
life insurance was sold

431
00:18:10,150 --> 00:18:13,500
to someone who became
a victim of the war.

432
00:18:13,820 --> 00:18:15,390
But as chairman
of this company,

433
00:18:15,460 --> 00:18:18,230
I can assure you we have
absolutely no knowledge

434
00:18:18,290 --> 00:18:20,500
of any such policy.

435
00:18:20,830 --> 00:18:22,740
Were you aware that
the Italian government

436
00:18:23,260 --> 00:18:26,400
had just subpoenaed Peter Grimaldi
shortly before he was killed?

437
00:18:26,470 --> 00:18:27,970
STEWART: Pure politics.

438
00:18:28,070 --> 00:18:29,340
We went after their banks.

439
00:18:29,400 --> 00:18:31,010
Now they'd like a go at us.

440
00:18:31,610 --> 00:18:33,050
SO YOU were aware.

441
00:18:33,110 --> 00:18:34,980
I don't think Mr. Stewart
meant to imply

442
00:18:35,040 --> 00:18:38,180
that he had any specific
knowledge of the subpoena.

443
00:18:38,250 --> 00:18:40,660
Only that he was aware
of their investigation.

444
00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:42,590
Exactly so.

445
00:18:42,650 --> 00:18:47,930
Look, I sympathize with the
frustration of someone

446
00:18:47,990 --> 00:18:50,830
who believes that he was
cheated by circumstance,

447
00:18:50,890 --> 00:18:55,600
but I can't just turn this
company into a deep pocket.

448
00:18:55,660 --> 00:19:00,110
We are required to verify a policy's
existence before we can pay.

449
00:19:00,170 --> 00:19:02,480
And unfortunately,
most of Federali's files

450
00:19:02,540 --> 00:19:05,180
disappeared when the
countries they were kept in

451
00:19:05,240 --> 00:19:07,240
were taken over
by the communists.

452
00:19:07,310 --> 00:19:11,350
So, at this point, it would be
totally irresponsible of us to pay.

453
00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:17,960
You think the company my father
worked for is behind his murder?

454
00:19:18,250 --> 00:19:21,670
JACK: Just before his death, your father
was subpoenaed by the Italian government

455
00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:26,230
to give testimony about certain insurance
policies he sold during the war.

456
00:19:26,690 --> 00:19:28,470
Testimony that might have cost

457
00:19:28,530 --> 00:19:31,480
All-Atlantic hundreds
of millions of dollars.

458
00:19:32,470 --> 00:19:33,840
Did your father ever tell you

459
00:19:33,900 --> 00:19:35,940
about his work during the war?

460
00:19:36,140 --> 00:19:38,710
Just that he was
an insurance salesman.

461
00:19:38,770 --> 00:19:41,880
But did he ever tell you
who he sold insurance to

462
00:19:41,940 --> 00:19:44,320
or how he came to work
for All-Atlantic?

463
00:19:44,380 --> 00:19:47,720
What are you saying? Who did
my father sell insurance to?

464
00:19:49,420 --> 00:19:50,790
Holocaust victims.

465
00:19:55,190 --> 00:19:56,500
He kept a book.

466
00:19:58,330 --> 00:19:59,860
DONNA: Jordan?

467
00:20:02,060 --> 00:20:05,530
It was about 10 years ago, when
he retired, he showed it to me.

468
00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:08,710
It had names, dates,
different numbers.

469
00:20:09,040 --> 00:20:10,780
It was in my father's
handwriting.

470
00:20:10,840 --> 00:20:12,940
Why didn't you ever tell me?

471
00:20:13,010 --> 00:20:15,210
JACK: Why did
he show it to you?

472
00:20:16,340 --> 00:20:17,850
He said it might be worth
a lot of money one day,

473
00:20:17,910 --> 00:20:20,980
and he wanted me to know
about it, that's all.

474
00:20:21,050 --> 00:20:24,330
It wasn't something I really
wanted to think about.

475
00:20:24,750 --> 00:20:26,290
Do you know what
happened to that book?

476
00:20:27,560 --> 00:20:28,660
No.

477
00:20:31,930 --> 00:20:34,030
It seems Grimaldi kept
a handwritten record

478
00:20:34,100 --> 00:20:36,630
of the policies he sold
in Eastern Europe. A book.

479
00:20:36,700 --> 00:20:39,010
We had the police search his apartment.
Nothing came up.

480
00:20:39,070 --> 00:20:42,710
His son says Grimaldi showed him
the book about 10 years ago.

481
00:20:42,770 --> 00:20:45,440
The same time he opened
the deposit box.

482
00:20:45,670 --> 00:20:47,880
Who told Roland Dell
it was there?

483
00:20:47,940 --> 00:20:49,940
Dell's not talking to us.

484
00:20:50,750 --> 00:20:52,820
Find out who talked to him.

485
00:20:55,780 --> 00:20:57,660
Briscoe's report says
Dell claimed

486
00:20:57,720 --> 00:20:59,430
he had a job working
for his brother-in-law.

487
00:20:59,490 --> 00:21:00,830
Doing what?

488
00:21:00,890 --> 00:21:03,840
Brother-in-law's working for a
company called Burton Security.

489
00:21:05,030 --> 00:21:07,030
His parole officer said
you got him a job.

490
00:21:07,130 --> 00:21:09,670
I never spoke
with his parole officer.

491
00:21:09,730 --> 00:21:12,180
Your brother-in-law's facing
a murder charge, Mr. Hollis.

492
00:21:12,230 --> 00:21:13,410
If you know something
about that,

493
00:21:13,470 --> 00:21:16,880
you could easily find yourself
facing charges as well.

494
00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:20,440
I passed his name along. To who?

495
00:21:20,510 --> 00:21:21,610
Donald Burton.

496
00:21:21,680 --> 00:21:23,050
The owner?

497
00:21:23,540 --> 00:21:24,780
What sort of company is this?

498
00:21:24,850 --> 00:21:27,190
We supply security
to businesses.

499
00:21:27,250 --> 00:21:29,560
So why pass
Roland's name along?

500
00:21:29,850 --> 00:21:31,420
A few weeks back,
Burton comes to me,

501
00:21:31,490 --> 00:21:33,690
says he needs somebody
with street smarts.

502
00:21:33,750 --> 00:21:36,290
Somebody who can
keep his mouth shut.

503
00:21:36,620 --> 00:21:38,570
Knows all about Roland.

504
00:21:40,230 --> 00:21:41,600
Look, I got a family to feed,

505
00:21:41,660 --> 00:21:45,110
but I didn't know he was going
to rob nobody, I swear.

506
00:21:46,700 --> 00:21:48,740
Man gave me a job, so what?

507
00:21:49,370 --> 00:21:52,210
It's a race to the
D.A.'s office, Mr. Dell.

508
00:21:52,270 --> 00:21:54,510
The one who flips fastest wins.

509
00:21:54,940 --> 00:21:56,220
How long do you think
it's going to be

510
00:21:56,280 --> 00:22:00,120
before Donald Burton tells us you
robbed that guy on your own?

511
00:22:04,550 --> 00:22:07,060
So what happens if he tells
you what you want to know?

512
00:22:07,120 --> 00:22:10,100
I'm prepared to offer 10
years on the homicide.

513
00:22:10,560 --> 00:22:13,630
I'll also recommend his
outstanding parole violation

514
00:22:13,690 --> 00:22:14,970
run concurrent
with that sentence.

515
00:22:15,030 --> 00:22:16,240
That's three years for free.

516
00:22:23,470 --> 00:22:24,810
Yeah, all right.

517
00:22:25,770 --> 00:22:26,770
Um...

518
00:22:28,940 --> 00:22:31,950
I met up with
Reggie's boss, Burton,

519
00:22:32,350 --> 00:22:36,090
and he tells me he wants
me to rob this old man.

520
00:22:36,950 --> 00:22:39,860
Gives me the 411 on the
when and the where.

521
00:22:40,450 --> 00:22:42,200
How about the what?

522
00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:46,270
I was just supposed to take
a book, that's all I know.

523
00:22:46,330 --> 00:22:47,970
So why'd you stab him?

524
00:22:48,400 --> 00:22:51,210
Man, once I snatched
the case, the old man,

525
00:22:51,270 --> 00:22:53,250
he grabs my jacket,
he won't let go,

526
00:22:53,300 --> 00:22:55,280
so I did what I needed to.

527
00:22:56,340 --> 00:22:57,510
Who shot him?

528
00:22:57,640 --> 00:22:59,120
Who shot who?

529
00:22:59,470 --> 00:23:01,920
CARMICHAEL: The man you
stabbed was also shot.

530
00:23:01,980 --> 00:23:03,080
What?

531
00:23:03,210 --> 00:23:05,490
I might make that
parole recommendation

532
00:23:05,550 --> 00:23:08,120
with a little more enthusiasm
if I knew the truth.

533
00:23:08,180 --> 00:23:12,490
Look, I don't know nothing about him
being shot, and that is the truth.

534
00:23:13,590 --> 00:23:15,160
Ask Burton if
you don't believe me.

535
00:23:15,220 --> 00:23:16,330
He was there, too.

536
00:23:16,390 --> 00:23:18,730
He was watching
the whole thing.

537
00:23:18,990 --> 00:23:22,300
Look, so I hire a couple of
questionable characters once in awhile.

538
00:23:22,360 --> 00:23:23,500
Big deal.

539
00:23:23,560 --> 00:23:24,980
You want to walk
around a warehouse

540
00:23:25,030 --> 00:23:26,940
in the South Bronx
at 3:00 a.m.?

541
00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:29,140
We're not talking about the
South Bronx, Mr. Burton.

542
00:23:29,200 --> 00:23:31,310
We're talking about
midtown Manhattan.

543
00:23:31,370 --> 00:23:33,550
Roland Dell gave
a full statement.

544
00:23:33,610 --> 00:23:35,310
We've also subpoenaed
your bank records,

545
00:23:35,380 --> 00:23:38,850
so we know you've done work
for All-Atlantic Insurance.

546
00:23:39,850 --> 00:23:41,690
JACK: What about it,
Mr. Burton?

547
00:23:41,750 --> 00:23:43,130
Oh, my God.

548
00:23:43,550 --> 00:23:45,660
What's on the table?

549
00:23:46,050 --> 00:23:48,030
JACK: Ten years.
Same as Dell.

550
00:23:48,690 --> 00:23:49,830
GARCIA: No.

551
00:23:50,520 --> 00:23:53,100
He gave you us,
we can give you more.

552
00:23:54,130 --> 00:23:55,510
More to give, more to get.

553
00:23:55,560 --> 00:23:57,040
What'd you have
in mind, Counselor?

554
00:23:58,800 --> 00:23:59,870
Five.

555
00:23:59,930 --> 00:24:01,710
I'll consider seven.

556
00:24:07,880 --> 00:24:11,080
Alan Bresler,
from All-Atlantic Insurance,

557
00:24:11,150 --> 00:24:13,890
he called me and told me
he had a security problem.

558
00:24:13,950 --> 00:24:15,590
Security problem?

559
00:24:16,250 --> 00:24:18,960
He's a lawyer.
That's the way he put it.

560
00:24:19,790 --> 00:24:22,730
Said this guy Grimaldi
used to work for them.

561
00:24:22,990 --> 00:24:25,940
Told me he had a book with
a list of policy numbers.

562
00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:28,060
He tried to sell it to them,

563
00:24:28,130 --> 00:24:30,540
but Hamilton Stewart
wouldn't buy.

564
00:24:32,930 --> 00:24:34,070
Where's the book now?

565
00:24:34,130 --> 00:24:35,940
I gave the briefcase
to Bresler.

566
00:24:36,070 --> 00:24:37,170
Who was the shooter?

567
00:24:38,510 --> 00:24:40,110
You telling me
Grimaldi was shot?

568
00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:43,380
There's the autopsy report.

569
00:24:46,180 --> 00:24:47,320
Wait.

570
00:24:48,680 --> 00:24:50,390
It had to be.

571
00:24:50,450 --> 00:24:51,730
Had to be what?

572
00:24:52,590 --> 00:24:54,930
I was sitting on the
bank across the street.

573
00:24:54,990 --> 00:24:58,030
When Grimaldi came out,
I gave Dell the signal.

574
00:24:58,090 --> 00:24:59,830
Only soon as I did,

575
00:25:00,060 --> 00:25:02,300
Grimaldi starts up a
conversation with this guy.

576
00:25:02,360 --> 00:25:03,570
Describe him.

577
00:25:04,100 --> 00:25:07,140
Uh, white.
Six foot.

578
00:25:07,940 --> 00:25:10,310
Thirty-five, forty.
Black hair.

579
00:25:12,040 --> 00:25:13,250
What else did you see?

580
00:25:13,610 --> 00:25:15,590
Looked like they were arguing.

581
00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:17,880
That's when he
must have shot him.

582
00:25:17,950 --> 00:25:20,190
And then the old man walks away

583
00:25:20,250 --> 00:25:22,090
and Dell does his thing.

584
00:25:25,390 --> 00:25:26,830
We believe him?
Doesn't make sense,

585
00:25:26,890 --> 00:25:28,730
he wouldn't give up the shooter.
(DOOR OPENS)

586
00:25:28,790 --> 00:25:30,740
Ballistics report on Grimaldi.

587
00:25:30,790 --> 00:25:33,900
The bullet was a 9 mm
manufactured in Italy.

588
00:25:33,960 --> 00:25:38,640
FBI lab determined it was fired
from a 1934 Italian GAR.

589
00:25:38,700 --> 00:25:40,370
Family heirloom.

590
00:25:40,430 --> 00:25:42,910
Grimaldi's son
registered a '34 GAR

591
00:25:42,970 --> 00:25:45,350
in Pennsylvania, 15 years ago.

592
00:25:48,940 --> 00:25:50,480
Is your brother here?

593
00:25:50,540 --> 00:25:51,780
Jordan.

594
00:25:52,280 --> 00:25:54,590
Jordan Grimaldi,
you're under arrest

595
00:25:54,650 --> 00:25:56,090
for the murder
of Peter Grimaldi.

596
00:25:56,150 --> 00:25:57,360
Jordan, what's going on?

597
00:25:57,420 --> 00:25:59,020
Put your hands
behind your back.

598
00:25:59,090 --> 00:26:00,430
DONNA: Jordan?

599
00:26:00,490 --> 00:26:02,330
Oh, my God, no!
What's going on?

600
00:26:02,390 --> 00:26:05,060
It's okay. It's okay, Donna.
It's gonna be all right.

601
00:26:08,930 --> 00:26:11,970
Burton told us Grimaldi
tried to sell the book.

602
00:26:13,170 --> 00:26:15,270
Maybe his son thought he
could cut a better deal.

603
00:26:15,370 --> 00:26:17,350
Why tell us about the
book in the first place?

604
00:26:17,400 --> 00:26:19,110
It doesn't matter.

605
00:26:19,310 --> 00:26:21,010
We still have two homicides

606
00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:22,990
and one body to go around.

607
00:26:23,040 --> 00:26:25,110
The problem is, if we go after
the son for the murder,

608
00:26:25,180 --> 00:26:28,460
we just about guarantee reasonable
doubt for Bresler and Stewart.

609
00:26:28,920 --> 00:26:31,760
We go after those two,
the boy gets a walk.

610
00:26:33,590 --> 00:26:35,500
There's a third option.

611
00:26:35,890 --> 00:26:38,130
Go after the son for the murder

612
00:26:39,090 --> 00:26:42,070
and Bresler and Stewart
for grand larceny.

613
00:26:42,730 --> 00:26:45,070
Since when did you become
a defense attorney?

614
00:26:45,130 --> 00:26:47,770
Grimaldi was robbed
to prevent those people

615
00:26:47,840 --> 00:26:50,010
from collecting
on their insurance policies.

616
00:26:51,140 --> 00:26:54,140
Every policy would
constitute a separate count.

617
00:26:54,510 --> 00:26:56,110
How many counts
we talking about?

618
00:26:56,180 --> 00:26:58,120
Over a thousand.
That we know of.

619
00:26:59,210 --> 00:27:02,680
They'll need a calculator or two
to figure out the sentence.

620
00:27:07,490 --> 00:27:09,230
Your Honor, People are
amending their complaint,

621
00:27:09,290 --> 00:27:10,600
dismissing the homicide counts

622
00:27:10,660 --> 00:27:12,360
and adding the charge
of Grand Larceny.

623
00:27:13,360 --> 00:27:16,860
1,136 counts. Is that number
correct, Miss Carmichael?

624
00:27:17,130 --> 00:27:19,370
As per the Italian Consulate,
it is, Your Honor.

625
00:27:19,430 --> 00:27:21,310
Theft of insurance
policy numbers?

626
00:27:21,370 --> 00:27:25,080
Judge, those policies were
sold more than 50 years ago.

627
00:27:25,310 --> 00:27:27,310
Peter Grimaldi's
robbery and murder

628
00:27:27,370 --> 00:27:29,220
takes care of the
statute of limitations.

629
00:27:29,280 --> 00:27:33,350
I agree. But I won't remand these
defendants on a larceny charge.

630
00:27:33,410 --> 00:27:35,550
Bail is set at 100,000 each.

631

632
00:27:38,950 --> 00:27:41,520
Figured you might
pull a stunt like this.

633
00:27:41,590 --> 00:27:42,690
Motion to dismiss.

634
00:27:42,760 --> 00:27:44,330
Without the book,
you've got nothing.

635
00:27:44,390 --> 00:27:45,600
"Jordan Grimaldi."

636
00:27:45,660 --> 00:27:47,830
Defendant is charged
with first degree murder.

637
00:27:47,900 --> 00:27:49,900
Except for him, of course.

638
00:27:53,500 --> 00:27:54,840
Mr. Gold is right.

639
00:27:54,900 --> 00:27:56,680
Without the book, you
have no proof sufficient

640
00:27:56,740 --> 00:27:57,740
for a conviction.

641
00:27:57,800 --> 00:27:59,480
But we do for an
indictment, Your Honor.

642
00:27:59,540 --> 00:28:02,020
It's an exercise in
futility, Your Honor.

643
00:28:02,080 --> 00:28:04,080
They can't produce that book.

644
00:28:04,140 --> 00:28:06,890
Do you know something
we don't, Mr. Gold?

645
00:28:07,150 --> 00:28:09,350
I'll let the trial
go forward, Mr. McCoy.

646
00:28:09,420 --> 00:28:13,230
But you better have the goods at
the end of the People's case.

647
00:28:14,990 --> 00:28:16,230
(SIGHS)

648
00:28:16,290 --> 00:28:18,740
If they're smart, the book's
already in the shredder.

649
00:28:18,790 --> 00:28:21,710
Maybe. But we still have
the next best thing.

650
00:28:25,030 --> 00:28:27,270
Was it the money,
Mr. Grimaldi?

651
00:28:31,740 --> 00:28:33,050
Is that why
you killed your father?

652
00:28:33,110 --> 00:28:35,750
Haven't you done enough
to my brother?

653
00:28:36,340 --> 00:28:37,580
JACK: I think
your brother

654
00:28:38,380 --> 00:28:42,660
was in serious trouble
long before we got there.

655
00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:47,330
What do you know about me?
Jordan, don't talk.

656
00:28:47,420 --> 00:28:49,330
I never wanted the money.

657
00:28:49,390 --> 00:28:50,560
That was blood money.

658
00:28:50,620 --> 00:28:53,700
Then why didn't you tell
someone about the book?

659
00:28:57,970 --> 00:29:00,070
It must have been difficult
learning about your father.

660
00:29:00,500 --> 00:29:01,840
You don't have to answer.

661
00:29:02,040 --> 00:29:03,380
I think he does, Counselor.

662
00:29:03,440 --> 00:29:05,510
I think he needs to answer.

663
00:29:07,110 --> 00:29:09,210
My father was responsible
for his own death.

664
00:29:09,280 --> 00:29:10,880
Jordan, please listen
to the lawyer.

665
00:29:10,940 --> 00:29:12,420
They can't prove anything.

666
00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:14,720
You're the only one,
other than your father,

667
00:29:14,780 --> 00:29:16,920
that's ever seen
what's inside that book.

668
00:29:18,520 --> 00:29:21,470
Without your testimony,
these men will walk.

669
00:29:22,060 --> 00:29:23,660
If that happens, I promise,

670
00:29:23,760 --> 00:29:26,600
your brother will do enough
time for all of them.

671
00:29:26,660 --> 00:29:28,110
What's your offer?

672
00:29:29,030 --> 00:29:31,910
Nothing.
Until he takes the stand.

673
00:29:33,300 --> 00:29:34,870
Afterwards, I'll be
willing to listen.

674
00:29:35,240 --> 00:29:38,270
You're asking him to testify
without a plea bargain?

675
00:29:38,340 --> 00:29:40,550
I won't inquire
about the shooting.

676
00:29:40,610 --> 00:29:43,920
If the defense does, he can
take the Fifth Amendment.

677
00:29:45,810 --> 00:29:47,720
I'm offering you the chance

678
00:29:47,780 --> 00:29:50,390
to do what you failed
to do that day.

679
00:29:57,160 --> 00:29:58,730
JACK: You're originally
from Poland,

680
00:29:58,790 --> 00:30:00,770
is that right,
Mr. Radzanower?

681
00:30:00,830 --> 00:30:03,100
From Budzanov.
A little town.

682
00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:05,840
And you knew a man
named Pietro Grimaldi?

683
00:30:05,900 --> 00:30:07,400
I knew him, yes.

684
00:30:07,470 --> 00:30:09,710
Tell us how, if you would, sir.

685
00:30:10,200 --> 00:30:13,080
It was 1939.

686
00:30:13,970 --> 00:30:17,720
The last time we were
all together as a family.

687
00:30:18,980 --> 00:30:23,050
The Germans just moved
into Poland,

688
00:30:23,950 --> 00:30:27,400
and things became
very difficult.

689
00:30:28,060 --> 00:30:29,970
Difficult?
For the Jews.

690
00:30:30,890 --> 00:30:34,240
My father owned
a small trucking company.

691
00:30:34,760 --> 00:30:36,400
He came to work one day

692
00:30:37,230 --> 00:30:40,270
to find all his trucks burned

693
00:30:40,330 --> 00:30:43,610
and the windows
of our garage broken.

694
00:30:45,270 --> 00:30:48,220
Unfortunately,
most of the Poles

695
00:30:48,280 --> 00:30:52,350
didn't need much
encouragement to hate us.

696
00:30:54,920 --> 00:30:57,690
That night, Grimaldi showed up.

697
00:30:58,020 --> 00:30:59,960
And he talked to your father?

698
00:31:00,020 --> 00:31:01,860
He told my father

699
00:31:02,720 --> 00:31:05,500
the Jews are being killed
in Germany.

700
00:31:06,290 --> 00:31:09,670
It's just a matter of time
for all of us.

701
00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:14,310
Then he showed
my father a picture

702
00:31:14,740 --> 00:31:19,620
of women and children
in a ditch, shot.

703
00:31:21,140 --> 00:31:27,180
Then he offered to sell
my father insurance.

704
00:31:28,550 --> 00:31:30,120
Of course, he bought.

705
00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:33,130
JACK: And you're sure
this was Pietro Grimaldi?

706
00:31:33,250 --> 00:31:36,960
My father made us
memorize Grimaldi's name,

707
00:31:37,460 --> 00:31:39,400
and he told us where to go

708
00:31:39,790 --> 00:31:42,330
if something should happen.

709
00:31:43,330 --> 00:31:45,900
And what happened to your
family, Mr. Radzanower?

710
00:31:46,270 --> 00:31:47,870
Hitler happened.

711
00:31:51,970 --> 00:31:54,150
And when it was over,

712
00:31:55,110 --> 00:31:57,950
I could only find my sister.

713
00:31:59,380 --> 00:32:01,050
She was very sick.

714
00:32:05,750 --> 00:32:09,460
I was 17, and we were alone.

715
00:32:10,390 --> 00:32:12,300
JACK:
And what did you do?

716
00:32:12,390 --> 00:32:15,460
We walked.
Over a year.

717
00:32:16,760 --> 00:32:19,000
I carried her most of the time.

718
00:32:19,930 --> 00:32:21,000
To Italy.

719
00:32:21,070 --> 00:32:23,740
To where my father told me
Grimaldi should be.

720
00:32:24,540 --> 00:32:25,780
And did you find him?

721
00:32:25,840 --> 00:32:28,580
Yes. I asked him
for our money.

722
00:32:28,640 --> 00:32:31,590
I told him without it
my sister would die.

723
00:32:31,850 --> 00:32:33,120
And what did he say?

724
00:32:33,180 --> 00:32:35,960
He said he doesn't
remember my father.

725
00:32:36,020 --> 00:32:39,550
He has no record of any policy.

726
00:32:40,450 --> 00:32:43,770
And without
a death certificate,

727
00:32:43,820 --> 00:32:47,240
I don't have even proof
that my father is dead.

728
00:32:49,900 --> 00:32:53,740
The Nazis did not give
any death certificates.

729
00:32:55,100 --> 00:32:59,140
I have only one from Italy.

730
00:33:00,310 --> 00:33:01,840
For my sister.

731
00:33:09,280 --> 00:33:11,190
I have nothing further.

732
00:33:16,020 --> 00:33:17,560
(CLEARING THROAT)

733
00:33:17,920 --> 00:33:19,960
Prior to this trial, sir,

734
00:33:20,030 --> 00:33:23,740
had you ever heard of the
All-Atlantic Insurance Company?

735
00:33:23,800 --> 00:33:24,870
No.

736
00:33:24,930 --> 00:33:28,470
Then your father did not buy
a policy from them, did he?

737
00:33:28,670 --> 00:33:30,610
He bought from Federali.

738
00:33:30,670 --> 00:33:32,120
So you would not
have made a claim

739
00:33:32,170 --> 00:33:34,240
against the All-Atlantic
Insurance Company,

740
00:33:34,310 --> 00:33:35,840
because you had
no basis to believe

741
00:33:35,910 --> 00:33:37,650
that they owed you any
money, is that right?

742
00:33:37,710 --> 00:33:38,750
Objection.

743
00:33:38,810 --> 00:33:40,850
The question calls for
a legal conclusion.

744
00:33:40,910 --> 00:33:43,090
Judge, it is
the People's theory

745
00:33:43,150 --> 00:33:44,790
that my clients stole a book

746
00:33:44,850 --> 00:33:47,960
to prevent this man and others like
him from claiming their insurance.

747
00:33:48,020 --> 00:33:49,470
I'd like a chance
to find out whether

748
00:33:49,520 --> 00:33:53,060
he thinks my clients owed him
any money in the first place.

749
00:33:53,130 --> 00:33:56,570
Do you think these men owe you
anything, Mr. Radzanower?

750
00:33:56,900 --> 00:34:01,640
I think these men
should close their eyes

751
00:34:02,200 --> 00:34:03,980
and see my sister.

752
00:34:04,500 --> 00:34:08,580
See my sister as a little
girl she was once,

753
00:34:08,640 --> 00:34:10,990
and a woman
she should have been.

754
00:34:12,080 --> 00:34:15,820
Then I want them
to open their eyes

755
00:34:16,080 --> 00:34:20,860
and tell me if they think
they owe me anything.

756
00:34:26,060 --> 00:34:28,130
My father showed me a book.

757
00:34:28,330 --> 00:34:30,600
He told me he'd kept a record
of all the insurance policies

758
00:34:30,660 --> 00:34:34,240
he sold during the war, so he wouldn't
be cheated out of his commissions.

759
00:34:34,300 --> 00:34:35,910
What sort of a record was this?

760
00:34:35,970 --> 00:34:39,140
Names, dates,
policy numbers, places.

761
00:34:39,840 --> 00:34:41,250
What places?

762
00:34:42,580 --> 00:34:46,290
Warsaw, Lodz, Vienna, Prague.

763
00:34:47,150 --> 00:34:48,790
How many policies were there?

764
00:34:49,280 --> 00:34:51,920
Maybe a thousand.
Maybe more.

765
00:34:55,660 --> 00:34:57,290
Nothing further.

766
00:34:59,930 --> 00:35:02,840
You didn't have a very good
relationship with your father,

767
00:35:02,900 --> 00:35:04,770
did you, Mr. Grimaldi?

768
00:35:04,830 --> 00:35:05,900
No.

769
00:35:05,970 --> 00:35:07,640
In fact, you hated the man.

770
00:35:07,700 --> 00:35:10,480
I loved my father.
I hated what he'd done.

771
00:35:10,540 --> 00:35:12,450
You mean, like,
selling those policies.

772
00:35:12,510 --> 00:35:14,350
And having kept
them secret, yes.

773
00:35:14,410 --> 00:35:15,580
I see.

774
00:35:16,580 --> 00:35:20,790
Well, tell us, when did you
find out about the book?

775
00:35:21,950 --> 00:35:23,360
About 10 years ago.

776
00:35:23,420 --> 00:35:24,690
Ten years?

777
00:35:24,750 --> 00:35:26,730
Tell anybody,
Mr. Grimaldi?

778
00:35:29,020 --> 00:35:30,090
No.

779
00:35:31,190 --> 00:35:33,430
Like father, like son.
Objection.

780
00:35:33,490 --> 00:35:36,100
Isn't it a fact that he only
reason you're coming forward now

781
00:35:36,160 --> 00:35:38,160
with this fiction about a book

782
00:35:38,230 --> 00:35:40,040
is that you were offered
a plea bargain?

783
00:35:40,230 --> 00:35:42,340
A plea bargain for the
murder of your own father.

784
00:35:42,400 --> 00:35:43,440
Objection.

785
00:35:43,500 --> 00:35:44,910
I wasn't offered
a plea bargain.

786
00:35:44,970 --> 00:35:46,210
JUDGE: Sustained.

787
00:35:46,270 --> 00:35:47,880
Did you murder your father?

788
00:35:48,110 --> 00:35:50,490
Mr. Grimaldi,
I have to warn you,

789
00:35:50,840 --> 00:35:53,020
you have the right not to answer
under the Fifth Amendment.

790
00:35:53,080 --> 00:35:54,990
Judge, let me talk
to my client.

791
00:35:55,050 --> 00:35:57,430
I don't need
to talk to my lawyer.

792
00:35:57,480 --> 00:36:00,260
The record reflects
counsel refused.

793
00:36:05,690 --> 00:36:07,100
I shot him.

794
00:36:08,230 --> 00:36:11,270
GOLD: And the whole thing about
this book was a scam, wasn't it?

795
00:36:11,330 --> 00:36:12,440
JORDAN: No.

796
00:36:12,500 --> 00:36:14,950
A scam to save your father,
and now to save you.

797
00:36:15,000 --> 00:36:16,840
That is a lie.
GOLD: There never was a book.

798
00:36:16,900 --> 00:36:19,280
There was.
There was a book.

799
00:36:23,440 --> 00:36:25,080
And you're right.

800
00:36:25,780 --> 00:36:28,160
I should have said
something a long time ago.

801
00:36:28,220 --> 00:36:29,750
GOLD: But you didn't,
did you?

802
00:36:32,350 --> 00:36:35,630
When he told me,
told me what it was,

803
00:36:37,020 --> 00:36:39,090
I begged him to turn it in.

804
00:36:41,860 --> 00:36:43,810
But he wouldn't listen.

805
00:36:44,330 --> 00:36:46,000
My father never listened.

806
00:36:46,070 --> 00:36:48,880
GOLD: So it's only now, when
you're facing a murder charge

807
00:36:48,940 --> 00:36:51,140
that you decide to come
forward, is that it?

808
00:36:51,200 --> 00:36:52,680
My father called me
a few weeks ago

809
00:36:52,740 --> 00:36:54,880
and told me he'd
been subpoenaed.

810
00:36:54,940 --> 00:36:56,250
He wanted to make sure
I didn't say anything

811
00:36:56,310 --> 00:36:58,350
to anybody about the book.

812
00:36:58,410 --> 00:37:00,190
He told me he was
going to sell it.

813
00:37:00,250 --> 00:37:01,350
To them.

814
00:37:01,410 --> 00:37:03,420
He even offered me money.

815
00:37:03,650 --> 00:37:04,690
For my children, he said.

816
00:37:04,750 --> 00:37:06,630
Object as non-responsive.

817
00:37:06,690 --> 00:37:08,100
Overruled.

818
00:37:08,960 --> 00:37:11,270
You can finish
your answer, sir.

819
00:37:13,960 --> 00:37:16,240
When he came out of the bank,
I was waiting for him.

820
00:37:16,300 --> 00:37:17,800
I had the gun.

821
00:37:18,470 --> 00:37:20,270
But I had to stop him.

822
00:37:21,870 --> 00:37:23,250
When he saw it,
he became enraged.

823
00:37:23,300 --> 00:37:24,980
He reached for it.

824
00:37:25,740 --> 00:37:27,180
It went off.

825
00:37:31,410 --> 00:37:33,190
He just looked at me

826
00:37:35,850 --> 00:37:37,800
and then he walked away.

827
00:37:41,590 --> 00:37:43,300
If my father had sold that book

828
00:37:43,360 --> 00:37:45,800
and I had done nothing
to stop him,

829
00:37:47,860 --> 00:37:50,100
I would have been lost forever.

830
00:37:56,370 --> 00:37:59,480
Even I have to admit it's
pretty hard to blame him.

831
00:37:59,710 --> 00:38:01,480
Even harder to figure
how to punish him.

832
00:38:01,540 --> 00:38:03,210
Can I talk to you?

833
00:38:05,510 --> 00:38:07,920
You shouldn't do that without
your lawyer, Mr. Bresler.

834
00:38:07,980 --> 00:38:09,260
I am a lawyer,
Mr. McCoy.

835
00:38:09,320 --> 00:38:11,020
I know what I'm doing.

836
00:38:11,080 --> 00:38:13,560
You won't be able to
change your mind.

837
00:38:13,620 --> 00:38:16,100
I just watched someone's
son ruin his life

838
00:38:16,160 --> 00:38:18,690
over the shame
of his father's acts.

839
00:38:20,330 --> 00:38:22,140
I have a son myself.

840
00:38:23,900 --> 00:38:26,430
BRESLER: I'd found out
what we'd done in '92.

841
00:38:27,300 --> 00:38:28,900
Hamilton Stewart
had been the Director

842
00:38:28,970 --> 00:38:32,380
of All-Atlantic's European
Operations during the war.

843
00:38:32,770 --> 00:38:34,720
He'd just read something
about a Jewish family

844
00:38:34,770 --> 00:38:37,280
suing a Swiss bank
and its director.

845
00:38:38,750 --> 00:38:40,450
He was afraid something like
that could happen to us.

846
00:38:40,510 --> 00:38:42,930
He wanted to know
what our liability was.

847
00:38:42,980 --> 00:38:44,760
You mean, his liability.

848
00:38:44,820 --> 00:38:45,960
Yes.

849
00:38:46,020 --> 00:38:47,190
What did you tell him?

850
00:38:48,390 --> 00:38:51,700
That both he and the company
had considerable exposure.

851
00:38:52,460 --> 00:38:55,130
If those policies could
ever be proven to exist.

852
00:38:56,230 --> 00:38:57,770
ARTHUR: Enter the book.

853
00:38:58,330 --> 00:39:01,340
When Peter got the subpoena,
he called Stewart.

854
00:39:01,430 --> 00:39:03,570
Told him he was going to turn
the book over to the Italians

855
00:39:03,640 --> 00:39:05,010
unless he was paid $2 million.

856
00:39:05,710 --> 00:39:06,810
Why not pay?

857
00:39:07,740 --> 00:39:10,620
There's no way to hide
a payment like that.

858
00:39:12,650 --> 00:39:15,790
That's when the decision was
made to obtain the book.

859
00:39:15,850 --> 00:39:17,730
You mean, to steal it.

860
00:39:18,080 --> 00:39:21,290
I was told to tell Peter
we had the money,

861
00:39:21,350 --> 00:39:23,130
and that he should bring
the book to my office.

862
00:39:24,060 --> 00:39:26,660
Burton would be waiting for him
when he came out of the bank.

863
00:39:27,060 --> 00:39:28,870
Where's the book now?

864
00:39:32,770 --> 00:39:36,680
Burton gave it to me and I
gave it to Hamilton Stewart.

865
00:39:39,640 --> 00:39:42,280
I know what I did
was a terrible thing.

866
00:39:42,780 --> 00:39:45,190
Your day of reckoning
isn't today.

867
00:39:46,610 --> 00:39:48,220
Put Stewart in jail.

868
00:39:52,920 --> 00:39:56,030
At no time did
lever order anyone

869
00:39:56,090 --> 00:39:59,400
to participate in a robbery,

870
00:40:00,830 --> 00:40:04,170
nor did I ever try
to purchase any book.

871
00:40:04,360 --> 00:40:07,210
And the testimony we heard from
Alan Bresler that you did?

872
00:40:07,270 --> 00:40:09,440
STEWART:
Complete fabrication.

873
00:40:09,670 --> 00:40:13,280
GOLD: So, you also deny any
effort by you or your company

874
00:40:13,340 --> 00:40:15,220
to prevent Holocaust victims

875
00:40:15,280 --> 00:40:18,520
from collecting on their
legitimate insurance policies?

876
00:40:18,580 --> 00:40:22,460
Of course I do. Our hearts
go out to any victim of war.

877
00:40:22,520 --> 00:40:26,990
But All-Atlantic is
a publicly traded company,

878
00:40:27,450 --> 00:40:31,230
and as such it has an
obligation to its shareholders.

879
00:40:31,290 --> 00:40:36,140
I simply can't turn it into
a charity when it suits us.

880
00:40:38,100 --> 00:40:39,630
Thank you, sir.

881
00:40:44,170 --> 00:40:46,950
Did your hearts also
go out to them

882
00:40:47,470 --> 00:40:50,580
when your subsidiary was
selling them life insurance,

883
00:40:51,110 --> 00:40:53,250
knowing they had no chance
of ever collecting?

884
00:40:54,680 --> 00:40:55,920
That was never done.

885
00:40:56,750 --> 00:40:58,130
Wasn't it?

886
00:40:58,990 --> 00:41:01,900
In 1932, Federali
Insurance was writing

887
00:41:01,960 --> 00:41:05,100
about a million dollars
a year in life insurance.

888
00:41:05,160 --> 00:41:09,870
By 1942, that number
increased 10 times over.

889
00:41:11,030 --> 00:41:13,340
How do you suppose that
happened, Mr. Stewart?

890
00:41:13,400 --> 00:41:15,500
You're talking about
a long time ago.

891
00:41:15,570 --> 00:41:17,840
Don't tell us you've
forgotten the details

892
00:41:17,900 --> 00:41:20,850
that made your career
at All-Atlantic.

893
00:41:22,240 --> 00:41:24,050
You were able to
sell those policies

894
00:41:24,210 --> 00:41:26,820
because of the persecution of Jewish families.
Isn't that what happened?

895
00:41:26,880 --> 00:41:28,620
I didn't know anything
about that.

896
00:41:28,680 --> 00:41:30,250
Didn't know?

897
00:41:33,920 --> 00:41:35,370
You were
All-Atlantic's Director

898
00:41:35,420 --> 00:41:38,830
for Eastern European Operations
in 1938, weren't you?

899
00:41:38,890 --> 00:41:40,340
Yes.
And Federali

900
00:41:40,430 --> 00:41:43,460
and its salesmen were reporting
directly to you, weren't they?

901
00:41:43,530 --> 00:41:45,770
There were rumors, that's all.

902
00:41:46,470 --> 00:41:48,210
Unsubstantiated rumors.

903
00:41:48,270 --> 00:41:50,410
The numbers don't lie,
Mr. Stewart.

904
00:41:50,470 --> 00:41:53,610
Are you telling us that
you suspected nothing?

905
00:41:53,670 --> 00:41:55,950
You make it sound like
we were the only ones.

906
00:41:56,010 --> 00:41:57,350
We weren't.

907
00:41:57,410 --> 00:41:59,320
American car companies,

908
00:41:59,380 --> 00:42:00,590
banks,

909
00:42:01,410 --> 00:42:03,020
airplane manufacturers.

910
00:42:03,080 --> 00:42:05,760
We were all doing business
with Germany.

911
00:42:06,790 --> 00:42:09,100
My God, our own
State Department

912
00:42:09,160 --> 00:42:11,470
refused entry to these people

913
00:42:11,520 --> 00:42:14,800
based on the same
information we had.

914
00:42:14,860 --> 00:42:16,670
It was just business.

915
00:42:16,730 --> 00:42:19,010
Yes. Good business.

916
00:42:20,330 --> 00:42:23,140
So good, you rewarded
Peter Grimaldi

917
00:42:23,240 --> 00:42:24,720
with a job
at the parent company

918
00:42:24,770 --> 00:42:26,510
the minute he stepped
off the boat, didn't you?

919
00:42:26,570 --> 00:42:29,420
Peter had produced
for us in Europe.

920
00:42:34,210 --> 00:42:37,820
Pretty risky proposition
for an insurance company

921
00:42:37,880 --> 00:42:41,630
to sell life insurance during
wartime, isn't it, Mr. Stewart?

922
00:42:42,160 --> 00:42:43,330
I suppose.

923
00:42:43,390 --> 00:42:46,460
Because war raises the risk
of death, isn't that right?

924
00:42:46,530 --> 00:42:47,600
Yes.

925
00:42:48,030 --> 00:42:51,340
And death is certainly
not good business

926
00:42:51,400 --> 00:42:52,900
for a life insurance
company, is it?

927
00:42:52,970 --> 00:42:53,970
No.

928
00:42:54,030 --> 00:42:57,570
But All-Atlantic couldn't sell
policies fast enough, could it?

929
00:42:57,640 --> 00:43:00,280
Because you knew the
people you were selling to

930
00:43:00,340 --> 00:43:02,790
had no hope of ever collecting.

931
00:43:02,840 --> 00:43:04,840
No hope of ever presenting
a death certificate.

932
00:43:04,910 --> 00:43:05,950
Objection.

933
00:43:06,010 --> 00:43:07,150
Maybe they should have brought

934
00:43:07,210 --> 00:43:09,490
their parents' ashes
in a bag to you.

935
00:43:09,550 --> 00:43:10,890
Mr. McCoy.

936
00:43:11,020 --> 00:43:15,330
Millions of dollars being made
in the sale of life insurance,

937
00:43:15,390 --> 00:43:18,340
and yet, after over 50 years,

938
00:43:18,390 --> 00:43:20,670
not a single policy ever paid.

939
00:43:24,830 --> 00:43:26,140
What do you suppose happened

940
00:43:26,200 --> 00:43:28,580
to all those people,
Mr. Stewart?

941
00:43:29,040 --> 00:43:30,640
I have no idea.

942
00:43:31,370 --> 00:43:33,650
Don't tell us you didn't know.

943
00:43:34,670 --> 00:43:37,590
The fact of the matter is,
you counted on it.

944
00:43:49,520 --> 00:43:51,400
The book for probation.

945
00:43:53,290 --> 00:43:54,970
That's your proposition?

946
00:43:55,030 --> 00:43:56,510
STEWART: Did you know
that Federali

947
00:43:56,560 --> 00:43:59,510
was originally founded
by a Jewish family?

948
00:43:59,570 --> 00:44:01,570
They were doing it
to their own people.

Mr. McCoy, that book can ease
a lot of financial pain.

950
00:44:05,040 --> 00:44:07,880
I won't let your client
use his company's money

951
00:44:07,940 --> 00:44:10,080
to pay his debt to society.

952
00:44:10,140 --> 00:44:13,320
Now, if you'll excuse me, I have
a closing argument to write.

953
00:44:17,550 --> 00:44:19,360
What can I get for the book?

954
00:44:20,090 --> 00:44:21,460
Four to twelve.

955
00:44:27,530 --> 00:44:30,170
And I want a written
agreement waiving your right

956
00:44:30,230 --> 00:44:33,340
to contest extradition to
Italy if they want you there.

957
00:44:42,740 --> 00:44:47,050
JACK: Turned out to be the
only bargaining chip they had.

958
00:44:48,610 --> 00:44:50,920
Insurance for
the insurance men.

959
00:44:52,290 --> 00:44:54,420
Still, it's scary to think
that without that book,

960
00:44:54,490 --> 00:44:57,400
they could have claimed
none of it was real.

961
00:44:58,460 --> 00:45:01,030
It wasn't the book
that made it real.
