We're seeking a court order to keep her body 81 00:06:59,260 --> 00:07:02,800 functioning long enough to deliver the baby. However, the girlfriend's mother 82 00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:06,320 wants to pull the plug and bury her daughter. Oh, I agree. The woman's dead, 83 00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:09,180 God's sake. Arnie, we're talking about a potential human life. 84 00:07:09,550 --> 00:07:12,190 Mr. Marciante wants to be a father. He should have thought about that before 85 00:07:12,190 --> 00:07:15,730 driving himself and his girlfriend off the road drunk. He killed her, and now 86 00:07:15,730 --> 00:07:18,230 wants to keep her. It was an accident. He still has rights. So does the girl's 87 00:07:18,230 --> 00:07:20,910 mother.

I'm trying to have Cruz tried in juvenile court, but 94 00:07:38,870 --> 00:07:42,470 right now that's looking doubtful.

Now assume 350 00:21:35,190 --> 00:21:39,190 gang that killed Mendez forced Alejandro Cruz to put his prints on that gun in 351 00:21:39,190 --> 00:21:40,350 order to keep him in line. 352 00:21:40,590 --> 00:21:41,590 Nice guys. 353 00:21:41,930 --> 00:21:45,370 Unfortunately, there's no attorney -client privilege to withhold evidence. 354 00:21:45,730 --> 00:21:47,330 People versus Fairbanks. 355 00:21:47,530 --> 00:21:51,350 The defense attorney in possession of physical evidence of a crime must turn 356 00:21:51,350 --> 00:21:52,350 over to the prosecution. 357 00:21:52,630 --> 00:21:55,350 Even if it convicts our client of a crime he didn't commit? 358 00:21:55,780 --> 00:22:00,300 Exactly.

Without the gun, Alejandro can't be 361 00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:09,400 controlled. What if he pleads a fifth? 362 00:22:10,180 --> 00:22:11,180 It's worth a shot. 363 00:22:11,280 --> 00:22:14,240 Penal Code Section 135 makes it a crime to destroy or conceal evidence. 364 00:22:14,540 --> 00:22:17,860 Well, there you go.

And then he comes out even more convinced that the 476 00:29:05,810 --> 00:29:07,950 world's against him, and then he passes that on to his son. 477 00:29:08,190 --> 00:29:12,510 Ann, we have got to break the cycle. Somebody's got to take the first step. 478 00:29:12,510 --> 00:29:16,270 are not a one -man justice system. It's my choice to testify the way...

The rescue of a baby in utero is an ancient medical tradition. 502 00:31:06,850 --> 00:31:10,990 It's called a severe infection because it's been a legal obligation since the 503 00:31:10,990 --> 00:31:15,130 time of Caesar, an ancient Rome, to deliver the baby if the mother died. 504 00:31:15,890 --> 00:31:19,750 Karen Coleman is dead, and her privacy rights... died with her. 505 00:31:20,030 --> 00:31:23,530 Today, Your Honor, we must take care of the living, and that includes not only 506 00:31:23,530 --> 00:31:25,470 the father, but little Michelle as well. 507 00:31:28,300 --> 00:31:29,239 Here they are. 508 00:31:29,240 --> 00:31:33,120 Mr. Mullaney, does the DA's office plan on filing any additional charges?
