1
00:00:00,260 --> 00:00:03,990
In the penal system,
citizens are represented

2
00:00:04,070 --> 00:00:06,590
by two organizations
of equal importance.

3
00:00:06,670 --> 00:00:08,500
The Police,
who investigates crimes,

4
00:00:08,570 --> 00:00:11,510
and the Public Ministry,
who prosecutes offenders.

5
00:00:11,570 --> 00:00:13,170
Here are their stories.

6
00:00:35,100 --> 00:00:37,290
It was a good party,
it seems.

7
00:00:37,370 --> 00:00:39,860
They all are...
between midnight and 3:00 a.m.

8
00:00:51,680 --> 00:00:54,080
You find that
Sara-Louise drinks too much?

9
00:00:54,150 --> 00:00:55,740
Did you count?

10
00:00:55,820 --> 00:00:58,310
I'm just jealous.

11
00:00:59,860 --> 00:01:03,310
I can't drink,
if we decide to go for it...

12
00:01:03,390 --> 00:01:05,220
Do you really want to?

13
00:01:05,290 --> 00:01:07,280
Not you?

14
00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:10,020
As long as I don't worry
of the 2:00 a.m. bottle.

15
00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:31,410
Darling, flowers.

16
00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:38,060
For my brother,
no one is good enough.

17
00:01:38,130 --> 00:01:39,560
Including his wife.

18
00:01:54,810 --> 00:01:56,800
It came from the parking lot.

19
00:03:24,770 --> 00:03:26,530
LAW AND ORDER

20
00:03:48,090 --> 00:03:50,120
- Can she speak?
- Yeah, at the hospital.

21
00:03:50,190 --> 00:03:53,030
The brave citizens, outside,
heard screams.

22
00:03:53,100 --> 00:03:55,620
And they jostled each other
to go help them, right?

23
00:03:55,700 --> 00:03:56,960
Flight?

24
00:03:57,030 --> 00:03:59,190
Empty purse
and wallet gone.

25
00:03:59,270 --> 00:04:00,760
Probably in a trash can.

26
00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:01,860
Identify?

27
00:04:01,940 --> 00:04:03,730
Gray card.

28
00:04:03,810 --> 00:04:06,040
Ralston, Janet and Alan.

29
00:04:06,110 --> 00:04:08,270
They live
one street from here.

30
00:04:08,340 --> 00:04:10,400
On the stairs.
A crack pipe.

31
00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:13,140
Still hot.
Witnesses?

32
00:04:13,220 --> 00:04:15,080
32, all blind.

33
00:04:15,150 --> 00:04:18,050
A car like that?
He should have bought a scrap metal,

34
00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:20,250
and live in
a better neighborhood.

35
00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:24,620
More than two streets away
of a police station.

36
00:04:24,690 --> 00:04:27,360
These people,
how much are they worth?

37
00:04:27,430 --> 00:04:28,920
$200,000?

38
00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:31,830
If I were them, I
would pay a driver.

39
00:04:31,900 --> 00:04:33,330
You don't even have a car.

40
00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:34,630
If I had a car.

41
00:04:34,700 --> 00:04:36,930
And it wouldn't be a Lincoln.

42
00:04:37,010 --> 00:04:39,570
Have you seen anyone?

43
00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:42,370
No, nothing seen,
heard nothing.

44
00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:44,310
She's good at that...nothing.

45
00:04:44,380 --> 00:04:47,140
He was black.
A kid.

46
00:04:47,220 --> 00:04:50,310
He came out through
this door running.

47
00:04:50,390 --> 00:04:51,820
Did you see it clearly?

48
00:04:54,260 --> 00:04:56,280
Our reigning milk drinker

49
00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:58,330
says he saw a kid.

50
00:05:06,770 --> 00:05:08,240
How many fingers?

51
00:05:09,610 --> 00:05:11,270
Three.

52
00:05:17,050 --> 00:05:19,340
ST JUSTIN HOSPITAL
TUESDAY APRIL 18

53
00:05:20,420 --> 00:05:22,780
Mrs. Ralston had
lucky.

54
00:05:22,850 --> 00:05:25,220
Any luck?
She lost her husband.

55
00:05:25,290 --> 00:05:28,090
His children had
lucky, then.

56
00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:29,750
At least,
she is still there.

57
00:05:29,830 --> 00:05:31,590
She can give us
a report?

58
00:05:31,660 --> 00:05:33,390
As soon as she wakes up.

59
00:05:33,460 --> 00:05:35,490
The injuries were not
serious, then?

60
00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:37,830
Old wounds,
on the forearm,

61
00:05:37,900 --> 00:05:39,830
one on the left buttock...

62
00:05:39,900 --> 00:05:42,560
Last year, Janet
was attacked. Central Park.

63
00:05:43,770 --> 00:05:46,740
Ardsley, Hastings...
She wanted to move to the Hudson.

64
00:05:46,810 --> 00:05:49,240
A place with a garden.

65
00:05:50,450 --> 00:05:52,780
Difficult to raise
his family in this city.

66
00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:57,510
Last week I had
reorganized their finances.

67
00:05:57,590 --> 00:06:00,780
They wanted to move before
to have their third child.

68
00:06:00,860 --> 00:06:02,620
Alan's mother.

69
00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:09,730
I called...

70
00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:11,230
I called Denise,
the babysitter.

71
00:06:11,300 --> 00:06:12,560
She takes care of the children.

72
00:06:12,630 --> 00:06:14,500
You were with
the children last night?

73
00:06:14,570 --> 00:06:18,010
These poor babies.

74
00:06:18,070 --> 00:06:19,800
Without Alan...

75
00:06:24,150 --> 00:06:25,740
Excuse me.

76
00:06:33,620 --> 00:06:37,290
Could you get a list
what they had on them?

77
00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:39,490
Jewelry, credit cards...

78
00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:41,500
You will have it tomorrow morning.

79
00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:49,070
$50,000...

80
00:06:49,140 --> 00:06:51,660
against all information
leading to arrest

81
00:06:51,740 --> 00:06:53,570
of the murderer
by Alan Ralston.

82
00:06:55,510 --> 00:06:58,380
My lawyer will warn
the newspapers in the morning.

83
00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:03,210
$50,000.

84
00:07:04,550 --> 00:07:06,180
If that was enough
to catch a murderer,

85
00:07:06,250 --> 00:07:08,220
they would get rid of us,

86
00:07:08,290 --> 00:07:10,450
and would use our salaries
as rewards.

87
00:07:12,430 --> 00:07:14,330
It couldn't be worse.

88
00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:16,560
It could have happened
in front of the police station.

89
00:07:16,630 --> 00:07:18,260
At 100m. Two cops.

90
00:07:18,330 --> 00:07:20,390
Wear a badge
does not make you telepathic.

91
00:07:20,470 --> 00:07:22,630
Really? Well,
I am telepathic,

92
00:07:22,700 --> 00:07:24,430
and here is the message
which I send...

93
00:07:24,510 --> 00:07:26,530
I don't like having
looking incompetent.

94
00:07:26,610 --> 00:07:30,200
And I receive a message,
that we are at an impasse.

95
00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:32,210
30 people in the street.

96
00:07:32,280 --> 00:07:35,040
The only one to show up
is a drunkard.

97
00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:37,240
So pull it all out
as you can from him.

98
00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:40,220
Then ask
everyone who was there,

99
00:07:40,290 --> 00:07:42,350
then all those who
live on the street.

100
00:07:42,420 --> 00:07:43,980
Do you see the picture?

101
00:07:47,300 --> 00:07:48,990
The homes...

102
00:07:49,060 --> 00:07:50,730
I prefer to sleep
in the street.

103
00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:52,360
The company is better there.

104
00:07:52,430 --> 00:07:54,300
But no room service.

105
00:07:54,370 --> 00:07:56,500
Him. Maybe.

106
00:08:00,380 --> 00:08:03,540
The same guy. Twice.

107
00:08:03,610 --> 00:08:05,200
Willie Tivnan.

108
00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:08,270
Will you buy me a drink?

109
00:08:09,420 --> 00:08:11,610
Mr Tivnan has a scar
on his thumb.

110
00:08:11,690 --> 00:08:13,980
He cut himself
deeply, one day.

111
00:08:14,060 --> 00:08:16,790
Crack stones
are good for one thing...

112
00:08:16,860 --> 00:08:17,920
clear prints.

113
00:08:18,990 --> 00:08:20,860
9mm.

114
00:08:20,930 --> 00:08:23,800
According to the marks on the ball,
probably a Beretta.

115
00:08:23,870 --> 00:08:26,860
Nice gun for the street.

116
00:08:26,940 --> 00:08:30,200
In my opinion, he doesn't have it
purchased in Italy.

117
00:08:31,910 --> 00:08:33,200
Armed robbery?

118
00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:35,680
Twice, with knives,
reduced to crimes.

119
00:08:35,740 --> 00:08:38,140
Break-in, four
hotel burglaries.

120
00:08:38,210 --> 00:08:40,180
Hotels? The Beretta
must come from there.

121
00:08:40,250 --> 00:08:41,840
Nothing with guns.

122
00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:43,890
Four reformatories.

123
00:08:43,950 --> 00:08:46,150
Sing Sing, Attica...

124
00:08:46,220 --> 00:08:49,680
At least Willie visits
the best places.

125
00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:52,560
The last three arrests,
in the same place.

126
00:08:52,630 --> 00:08:54,930
Let's book it for him
another trip.

127
00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:56,930
Did she call?

128
00:08:57,000 --> 00:08:58,690
Oh, yes.

129
00:09:12,680 --> 00:09:14,620
Sully, wait.

130
00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:23,590
"Principles of
Eastern Philosophy.

131
00:09:23,660 --> 00:09:25,060
How much?

132
00:09:25,130 --> 00:09:27,390
I didn't know that
the cops knew how to read.

133
00:09:27,460 --> 00:09:29,330
I know how to read
a locker, Willie.

134
00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:31,990
Words. That's all
what I sell.

135
00:09:32,070 --> 00:09:33,590
Magazines and books.

136
00:09:33,670 --> 00:09:36,690
We can sell them
in the street, without a license.

137
00:09:36,770 --> 00:09:38,800
What were you selling?
Saturday night, Willie?

138
00:10:09,140 --> 00:10:11,110
Get in, Willie.

139
00:10:12,070 --> 00:10:13,940
Parking?

140
00:10:14,010 --> 00:10:17,740
I don't have any wheels.
What am I going to park there? My butt?

141
00:10:17,810 --> 00:10:19,440
Your fingerprints.

142
00:10:19,520 --> 00:10:23,350
On the crack pipe that
you left it in the parking lot.

143
00:10:24,590 --> 00:10:27,380
Okay, I was there, okay?

144
00:10:27,460 --> 00:10:29,980
But I smoked, that's all.

145
00:10:30,060 --> 00:10:31,820
Where does the Beretta come from?

146
00:10:31,890 --> 00:10:33,860
I said...

147
00:10:33,930 --> 00:10:35,860
I hear someone
go down, ok?

148
00:10:35,930 --> 00:10:38,990
I think it's the security guard.
But I hear gunshots.

149
00:10:39,070 --> 00:10:41,230
One, then two more.
Bam! Bam!

150
00:10:43,010 --> 00:10:44,970
So what, are you stopping me?

151
00:10:47,780 --> 00:10:49,610
Find me a lawyer.

152
00:10:51,450 --> 00:10:55,880
Alan walked around the car
to open the door for me.

153
00:10:55,950 --> 00:10:57,890
I went out
of the car.

154
00:10:57,950 --> 00:11:00,180
I kissed him.

155
00:11:00,260 --> 00:11:04,160
I saw the flowers
on the back seat.

156
00:11:05,890 --> 00:11:07,830
I asked him
to take them.

157
00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:11,060
He opened
the back door.

158
00:11:12,300 --> 00:11:14,830
He was looking for something
in his pocket.

159
00:11:16,410 --> 00:11:18,570
He said,
“Did you close it?”

160
00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:20,770
He was talking about the car.

161
00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:22,780
I turned around...

162
00:11:24,110 --> 00:11:25,910
he headed
towards the stairs.

163
00:11:25,980 --> 00:11:28,420
The door opened,

164
00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:33,010
a man came out...
a black man.

165
00:11:35,190 --> 00:11:37,060
I didn't see a gun.

166
00:11:39,090 --> 00:11:40,990
I heard the shot...

167
00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:46,160
I saw Alan's face,
as if he had been hit.

168
00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:52,630
Look closely.

169
00:12:03,050 --> 00:12:04,780
Number three.

170
00:12:06,890 --> 00:12:08,410
I don't...

171
00:12:08,490 --> 00:12:10,050
Take your time.

172
00:12:14,860 --> 00:12:16,800
Wait, number five.

173
00:12:23,570 --> 00:12:25,440
THANKS.

174
00:12:28,580 --> 00:12:30,570
They pop up everywhere.

175
00:12:30,970 --> 00:12:33,660
Eight victims of assault
and the newspaper has just come out.

176
00:12:34,005 --> 00:12:35,965
Identifications
are formal?

177
00:12:36,750 --> 00:12:39,310
Logan checks the last one.

178
00:12:39,390 --> 00:12:43,380
The first seven,
If it's not Willie, he has a twin.

179
00:12:43,460 --> 00:12:46,550
Number eight, same story.
15cm switchblade knife.

180
00:12:48,870 --> 00:12:50,200
What?

181
00:12:50,270 --> 00:12:55,430
This kid, he killed no one,
and he uses a blade.

182
00:12:55,510 --> 00:12:58,630
He was there smoking crack
but didn't kill Ralston?

183
00:12:59,780 --> 00:13:01,710
Without connection to the gun,
we have no business.

184
00:13:01,780 --> 00:13:03,580
We don't charge him,
he comes out in 48 hours,

185
00:13:03,650 --> 00:13:06,910
- and we will never see him again.
- Call the prosecutor.

186
00:13:08,020 --> 00:13:10,610
SUPREME CRIMINAL COURT
WEDNESDAY MAY 7

187
00:13:12,220 --> 00:13:14,020
Willie Tivnan.

188
00:13:16,390 --> 00:13:19,160
The charges retained are
murder without premeditation,

189
00:13:19,230 --> 00:13:22,200
attempted murder
and aggression.

190
00:13:22,260 --> 00:13:24,260
What is the accused pleading?

191
00:13:24,330 --> 00:13:26,360
Not guilty.

192
00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:28,730
The accused is indigent,
isn't it?

193
00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:31,170
Yes. The office of
legal aid

194
00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:32,940
think the facts
in this matter

195
00:13:33,010 --> 00:13:35,370
do not justify these charges.
Without charge...

196
00:13:35,440 --> 00:13:37,810
We believe that there is
enough evidence.

197
00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:39,850
Furthermore, the accused
previous convictions,

198
00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:41,970
and missed two appearances
previous ones.

199
00:13:42,050 --> 00:13:46,110
These are two violent crimes,
one of them is murder.

200
00:13:46,190 --> 00:13:48,660
And the accused did not
of known residence.

201
00:13:50,430 --> 00:13:52,290
The deposit is
set at $100,000.

202
00:13:59,130 --> 00:14:00,860
Where is your boss?

203
00:14:00,940 --> 00:14:02,340
You believe that he assists
to the indictments

204
00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:04,800
of all the drug addicts
guilty to the bone?

205
00:14:04,870 --> 00:14:06,740
Nobody is guilty
before the verdict.

206
00:14:06,810 --> 00:14:09,300
I spoke to Tivnan.

207
00:14:09,380 --> 00:14:12,870
He admits he got caught
for eight assaults.

208
00:14:12,950 --> 00:14:14,540
But he didn't kill Ralston.

209
00:14:14,620 --> 00:14:16,110
Let's see, Elizabeth.

210
00:14:16,190 --> 00:14:18,450
Janet Ralston doesn't have it
formally identified.

211
00:14:18,520 --> 00:14:20,650
He does not use
of pistol.

212
00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:23,250
Stone will not want
negotiate.

213
00:14:23,330 --> 00:14:25,660
The public doesn't like
this kind of business.

214
00:14:25,730 --> 00:14:27,360
I'm used to it.

215
00:14:27,430 --> 00:14:29,420
This kid is telling the truth.

216
00:14:29,500 --> 00:14:31,190
I hope you are wrong,

217
00:14:31,270 --> 00:14:34,400
because everyone in Manhattan
think he did.

218
00:14:40,410 --> 00:14:42,000
Case closed.

219
00:14:42,080 --> 00:14:44,010
One less killer
in the streets.

220
00:14:46,420 --> 00:14:49,750
Max, we'll find the gun.

221
00:14:49,820 --> 00:14:51,880
Willie Tivnan has a record

222
00:14:51,950 --> 00:14:55,220
as long as
the Encyclopedia Universalis.

223
00:14:55,290 --> 00:14:58,890
And no mention
of using a gun.

224
00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:01,450
You think I'm wrong
because I'm right.

225
00:15:01,530 --> 00:15:02,760
You think...

226
00:15:02,830 --> 00:15:05,030
I believe that
he's a smart guy...

227
00:15:05,100 --> 00:15:07,360
Who did this for
buy two grams.

228
00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:10,170
...who knows the difference
between assault and murder.

229
00:15:12,370 --> 00:15:16,000
When Marie was attacked,
last year,

230
00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:17,810
what is
I did first?

231
00:15:17,880 --> 00:15:19,310
You took your gun...

232
00:15:19,380 --> 00:15:22,110
Think. You were attacked.

233
00:15:22,180 --> 00:15:24,210
You don't have a wallet anymore.
You call the cops,

234
00:15:24,290 --> 00:15:25,910
and then what do you do?

235
00:15:28,020 --> 00:15:30,150
Willie shoots the Ralstons,

236
00:15:30,230 --> 00:15:33,190
empty the purse,
take the wallet...

237
00:15:33,260 --> 00:15:34,960
Sells credit cards.

238
00:15:35,030 --> 00:15:38,000
It's been three days,

239
00:15:38,070 --> 00:15:40,230
but not a word
banks.

240
00:15:40,300 --> 00:15:41,930
Nobody used
the Ralston cards.

241
00:15:44,110 --> 00:15:45,900
Not even tried.

242
00:15:49,750 --> 00:15:52,150
HOME OF JANET RALSTON
TUESDAY MAY 8

243
00:15:53,550 --> 00:15:56,180
An announcement in the edition
Sunday edition of the "Times".

244
00:15:56,250 --> 00:16:00,380
A house of ten rooms,
good schools...

245
00:16:01,460 --> 00:16:05,050
Alan said we weren't
the kind to live in the suburbs.

246
00:16:06,700 --> 00:16:09,290
What kind of people
live in the suburbs?

247
00:16:11,230 --> 00:16:13,030
The living kind.

248
00:16:16,370 --> 00:16:18,430
The night when...
happened...

249
00:16:22,880 --> 00:16:26,110
Alan did
around the car...

250
00:16:28,150 --> 00:16:29,880
to open the door for me.

251
00:16:29,950 --> 00:16:32,350
I went out
of the car.

252
00:16:32,420 --> 00:16:34,180
I kissed him.

253
00:16:34,260 --> 00:16:37,990
I saw flowers
on the back seat.

254
00:16:38,060 --> 00:16:40,150
I asked him
to take them.

255
00:16:42,100 --> 00:16:43,720
He opened the door.

256
00:16:47,900 --> 00:16:51,630
He was looking for something
in his pocket.

257
00:16:51,710 --> 00:16:54,110
He said,
“Did you close it?”

258
00:16:55,180 --> 00:16:56,610
I turned around,

259
00:16:56,680 --> 00:16:59,150
he headed
towards the stairs.

260
00:16:59,210 --> 00:17:01,680
A man came out.

261
00:17:01,750 --> 00:17:03,410
He was a black man.

262
00:17:04,890 --> 00:17:06,880
I didn't see
of pistol.

263
00:17:07,960 --> 00:17:09,250
I heard the knock,

264
00:17:09,320 --> 00:17:13,850
and I saw Alan's face,
as if he had been hit.

265
00:17:17,970 --> 00:17:19,800
It's astonishing.

266
00:17:19,870 --> 00:17:22,360
She repeated
his story perfectly.

267
00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:24,410
Yeah, word for word.

268
00:17:25,970 --> 00:17:28,670
I'm taking the children
at the Duchess Stables, sometimes...

269
00:17:28,740 --> 00:17:31,300
I hate riding horses.
I have the chips.

270
00:17:31,380 --> 00:17:33,410
Horses too.

271
00:17:33,480 --> 00:17:36,040
You know...

272
00:17:36,120 --> 00:17:38,810
I hold on to the saddle
two, three minutes.

273
00:17:38,890 --> 00:17:40,950
And after,
I don't remember anything.

274
00:17:41,020 --> 00:17:43,420
Her husband is shot,
we shoot at her,

275
00:17:43,490 --> 00:17:46,520
she sees a black man, is afraid
and remembers everything.

276
00:17:46,600 --> 00:17:48,150
Some cops,
when it ducks,

277
00:17:48,230 --> 00:17:50,960
forget everything, even
their registration number.

278
00:17:55,140 --> 00:17:57,610
RIKER ISLAND PRISON
WEDNESDAY MAY 9

279
00:17:57,670 --> 00:17:59,440
I didn't take a ring.

280
00:17:59,510 --> 00:18:01,530
- And the wallet?
- I didn't take a wallet.

281
00:18:01,610 --> 00:18:03,870
Where did you get rid of
credit cards?

282
00:18:03,950 --> 00:18:05,570
The light went out
and I ran away.

283
00:18:05,650 --> 00:18:07,440
Light?

284
00:18:07,520 --> 00:18:10,680
On the stairs.
I lost my rock like that.

285
00:18:10,750 --> 00:18:14,750
Okay, Willie,
we slowly resume.

286
00:18:14,820 --> 00:18:16,220
You light a stone...

287
00:18:16,290 --> 00:18:17,450
The light goes out
on the stairs,

288
00:18:17,530 --> 00:18:20,650
and then, bang, bang...
Gunshots.

289
00:18:20,730 --> 00:18:22,490
I ran.

290
00:18:25,370 --> 00:18:29,360
You may have just paid yourself
your exit ticket.

291
00:18:43,790 --> 00:18:45,780
The light went out, huh?

292
00:18:47,060 --> 00:18:49,250
Where is the switch?

293
00:18:49,320 --> 00:18:53,320
- Willie takes us for a walk.
- See if it screws in.

294
00:18:56,730 --> 00:18:59,460
It's my foot.

295
00:19:06,340 --> 00:19:08,400
How many
killers to screw...

296
00:19:08,480 --> 00:19:10,000
Take the light bulb.

297
00:19:17,190 --> 00:19:18,680
Yeah, thanks.

298
00:19:19,860 --> 00:19:21,690
Nothing about Janet.

299
00:19:23,030 --> 00:19:26,790
Mr. Himes, the counselor
financier of the Ralstons?

300
00:19:28,200 --> 00:19:30,360
Obscenities
on public roads.

301
00:19:31,430 --> 00:19:32,960
Him, a pervert?

302
00:19:33,040 --> 00:19:35,530
Last January,
11:00 p.m. on the highway...

303
00:19:35,600 --> 00:19:37,300
He stops at the toll booth.

304
00:19:37,370 --> 00:19:40,470
He is half naked,
with a woman on his lap.

305
00:19:42,440 --> 00:19:43,970
She was taking a nap...

306
00:19:44,050 --> 00:19:46,570
He's on the automatic route,
he tosses a coin.

307
00:19:46,650 --> 00:19:48,580
A guy at the counter
from next door sees him,

308
00:19:48,650 --> 00:19:50,170
and calls the cops.

309
00:19:52,890 --> 00:19:55,520
Tight because they are not
passed through the counter.

310
00:19:55,590 --> 00:19:58,190
The police arrest them,
give them a warning,

311
00:19:58,260 --> 00:19:59,890
but write a report.

312
00:19:59,960 --> 00:20:01,520
Janet Ralston.

313
00:20:01,600 --> 00:20:03,160
Brenda Smith.

314
00:20:03,230 --> 00:20:05,560
The cop describes Brenda.

315
00:20:05,630 --> 00:20:08,400
Brenda looks like
a lot to Janet.

316
00:20:08,470 --> 00:20:12,670
- And guess what?
- I shudder in anticipation.

317
00:20:12,740 --> 00:20:15,180
- The car.
- That of the Ralstons?

318
00:20:15,240 --> 00:20:20,480
The big and shiny one
Lincoln 1989.

319
00:20:23,250 --> 00:20:26,880
Reopen the case?
I adore.

320
00:20:26,960 --> 00:20:28,350
Really, I love it.

321
00:20:28,420 --> 00:20:32,120
Just before Willie ran away,
the light went out.

322
00:20:32,190 --> 00:20:33,530
In his brain.

323
00:20:33,600 --> 00:20:36,030
The light bulb. We checked.
It was unscrewed.

324
00:20:36,100 --> 00:20:38,430
- So what?
- Willie has no reason to lie.

325
00:20:38,500 --> 00:20:39,730
And then?

326
00:20:39,800 --> 00:20:42,700
There were two games
fingerprints on the bulb.

327
00:20:42,770 --> 00:20:45,540
One of them... Gil Himes.

328
00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:50,200
We shot twice
on Janet Ralston.

329
00:20:50,280 --> 00:20:53,540
So you tell me that
Gil Himes shot her husband,

330
00:20:53,620 --> 00:20:56,240
then twice on her,
and she covers him?

331
00:21:01,520 --> 00:21:04,650
She was released from the hospital.
Let's put everything on hold

332
00:21:04,730 --> 00:21:06,420
and let's concentrate
on her.

333
00:21:06,500 --> 00:21:08,330
On a hunch?

334
00:21:08,400 --> 00:21:10,090
On the intuition that Gil Himes

335
00:21:10,170 --> 00:21:12,360
don't change the light bulbs
during his leave.

336
00:21:12,430 --> 00:21:13,990
It's not the parking lot
from Himes.

337
00:21:14,070 --> 00:21:15,500
We can't explain

338
00:21:15,570 --> 00:21:17,500
his footprints
on this bulb.

339
00:21:20,510 --> 00:21:23,380
If we learn
that we solved this matter

340
00:21:23,450 --> 00:21:25,000
and let's start again...

341
00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:28,170
someone wanted
the darkness.

342
00:21:31,920 --> 00:21:35,080
Three days, and
You don't say anything to anyone.

343
00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:39,630
You won't regret it,
Captain.

344
00:21:39,700 --> 00:21:41,750
I already regret it.

345
00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:44,330
TWO DAYS LATER

346
00:21:53,940 --> 00:21:55,810
Weather report.

347
00:21:55,880 --> 00:21:58,540
Cloudy. No rain.

348
00:21:58,610 --> 00:22:01,450
In the last 24 hours,
she went to the butcher,

349
00:22:01,520 --> 00:22:03,780
the florist,
the greengrocer.

350
00:22:03,850 --> 00:22:05,680
At the dry cleaners,
at the beauty salon,

351
00:22:05,750 --> 00:22:07,450
and she accompanied
children at school.

352
00:22:07,520 --> 00:22:09,960
A busy life.

353
00:22:10,030 --> 00:22:13,150
- Male visitors?
- No visitors.

354
00:22:13,230 --> 00:22:14,590
A real nun.

355
00:22:14,660 --> 00:22:16,760
And the inspector knows
what she's talking about.

356
00:22:16,830 --> 00:22:18,490
He adores me.

357
00:22:18,570 --> 00:22:20,360
He believes that I can
resurrect the dead.

358
00:22:20,440 --> 00:22:22,840
You do this number
to each team?

359
00:22:22,900 --> 00:22:24,930
Only in hiding.

360
00:22:25,010 --> 00:22:28,000
No, Max,
no more time.

361
00:22:29,240 --> 00:22:30,680
Two days.

362
00:22:30,750 --> 00:22:33,210
How do you find that?

363
00:22:33,280 --> 00:22:36,650
Widow, two children,
victim of a horrible crime,

364
00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:38,650
and the police spend
$2,000 per day

365
00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:40,350
to know
when she pees.

366
00:22:40,420 --> 00:22:42,390
You want to read this
in the "Post"?

367
00:22:42,460 --> 00:22:44,050
A day.

368
00:22:44,130 --> 00:22:46,060
What will it change?

369
00:22:46,130 --> 00:22:49,190
Maybe
I will sleep better.

370
00:22:52,430 --> 00:22:54,060
A day.

371
00:22:56,770 --> 00:22:58,430
What? Wait.

372
00:23:00,880 --> 00:23:03,000
They are together.
Hamstead Hotel.

373
00:23:10,520 --> 00:23:13,680
What does she do?
It's been four hours.

374
00:23:13,760 --> 00:23:16,850
She serves him
marinière mussels.

375
00:23:16,930 --> 00:23:19,190
It looks like
that he ate well.

376
00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:23,730
- Let's pick it.
- No, no.

377
00:23:23,800 --> 00:23:26,130
Let's talk first
to the woman.

378
00:23:46,590 --> 00:23:48,180
Mrs. Ralston.

379
00:23:50,790 --> 00:23:52,820
Excuse me.

380
00:23:52,890 --> 00:23:54,690
Could you help us,
Mrs. Ralston?

381
00:23:54,760 --> 00:23:58,030
Mr. Himes was in
the parking lot that night.

382
00:23:58,100 --> 00:23:59,590
He came home late.

383
00:24:03,070 --> 00:24:05,160
You know what
what do I believe?

384
00:24:06,370 --> 00:24:08,970
That you are
Mr. Himes' mistress.

385
00:24:10,010 --> 00:24:12,610
That your boyfriend
killed your husband.

386
00:24:13,750 --> 00:24:17,880
That the prosecutor will
charged with complicity.

387
00:24:19,020 --> 00:24:21,490
That you are too smart
for not cooperating.

388
00:24:28,900 --> 00:24:30,330
My God.

389
00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:35,970
I had an adventure...

390
00:24:37,410 --> 00:24:39,340
but I put an end to it.

391
00:24:40,740 --> 00:24:43,230
Something must have...

392
00:24:43,310 --> 00:24:45,940
happen, because it
became enraged

393
00:24:46,010 --> 00:24:48,450
and he broke down.

394
00:24:48,520 --> 00:24:50,710
He followed us,
Alan and I,

395
00:24:50,790 --> 00:24:52,810
and shot us.

396
00:25:00,005 --> 00:25:02,305
The charges retained are
manslaughter

397
00:25:02,360 --> 00:25:04,490
and aggression
with premeditation.

398
00:25:04,570 --> 00:25:06,590
What is the accused pleading?

399
00:25:06,670 --> 00:25:09,000
Your Honor...

400
00:25:09,070 --> 00:25:11,800
the arguments put forward
by the prosecutor

401
00:25:11,870 --> 00:25:14,810
do not deserve
incarceration.

402
00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:18,110
Mr. Shell, what
you say is empty.

403
00:25:18,180 --> 00:25:19,940
You doubt
the arguments...

404
00:25:20,010 --> 00:25:21,500
so do you want
an audience?

405
00:25:21,580 --> 00:25:23,280
No, Your Honor.

406
00:25:23,350 --> 00:25:26,380
In this case,
what is the accused pleading?

407
00:25:26,450 --> 00:25:29,120
Mr. Himes?

408
00:25:29,190 --> 00:25:30,850
Not guilty.

409
00:25:30,930 --> 00:25:34,450
Mr. Himes is a member
respectable in the community,

410
00:25:34,530 --> 00:25:36,960
without a criminal record.
We demand his release...

411
00:25:37,030 --> 00:25:39,500
If you suggest
"without deposit",

412
00:25:39,570 --> 00:25:41,470
the answer is no.

413
00:25:41,540 --> 00:25:45,300
These are two crimes,
one of which is a homicide.

414
00:25:46,440 --> 00:25:47,770
Mr. Stone?

415
00:25:47,840 --> 00:25:51,300
We want to be sure
Mr. Himes introduce himself.

416
00:25:52,780 --> 00:25:54,770
Bail is set at $200,000,

417
00:25:54,850 --> 00:25:57,370
in cash or bonds.

418
00:26:00,150 --> 00:26:02,250
Voluntary homicide, Stone?

419
00:26:02,320 --> 00:26:05,380
To show the public
that you run after the rich?

420
00:26:05,460 --> 00:26:07,890
Your client killed
in cold blood.

421
00:26:07,960 --> 00:26:10,400
It doesn't matter if it is
homeless or extremely rich.

422
00:26:10,470 --> 00:26:13,060
You ask for homicide
voluntary is too much.

423
00:26:13,130 --> 00:26:17,200
Intense emotional disturbance, it is
penalty of intentional injury.

424
00:26:17,270 --> 00:26:19,670
Troubled, we don't plan
like Himes.

425
00:26:19,740 --> 00:26:21,940
It's a crime
passionate, Stone.

426
00:26:22,010 --> 00:26:24,140
Pure and simple.

427
00:26:24,210 --> 00:26:26,150
A crime of passion
is never pure,

428
00:26:26,210 --> 00:26:27,980
and certainly not simple.

429
00:26:31,090 --> 00:26:33,140
Gil was like the...

430
00:26:33,220 --> 00:26:35,780
guys with whom
I was going out to college.

431
00:26:35,860 --> 00:26:38,220
Those that you
didn't marry?

432
00:26:38,290 --> 00:26:40,390
Those you meet

433
00:26:40,460 --> 00:26:43,290
after the respectable man
let you down.

434
00:26:43,360 --> 00:26:45,420
It had been going on since
how long?

435
00:26:47,700 --> 00:26:50,300
We are obliged
to do that?

436
00:26:50,370 --> 00:26:53,200
Mrs. Ralston, you will
testify against Mr. Himes.

437
00:26:56,380 --> 00:26:58,070
Three months.

438
00:27:01,020 --> 00:27:02,920
I loved Alan.

439
00:27:02,980 --> 00:27:04,980
I didn't want
ruin everything.

440
00:27:06,050 --> 00:27:08,920
How Mr. Himes Ruled
when you told him?

441
00:27:10,330 --> 00:27:12,490
He said he understood.

442
00:27:14,160 --> 00:27:16,320
Why did you lie
to the police?

443
00:27:16,400 --> 00:27:19,260
He tried to kill me.

444
00:27:21,400 --> 00:27:23,600
I was scared.

445
00:27:23,670 --> 00:27:26,370
He was crazy,
irrational.

446
00:27:28,740 --> 00:27:32,270
He looked at me like
if he didn't know me.

447
00:27:35,680 --> 00:27:37,810
He had...

448
00:27:39,390 --> 00:27:42,550
completely changed.

449
00:27:48,860 --> 00:27:51,330
RESIDENCE OF
Mr. and Mrs. MILTON LUCK
FRIDAY AUGUST 24

450
00:27:55,100 --> 00:27:56,800
The Ralstons?

451
00:27:56,870 --> 00:27:59,340
At our party,
they got along very well.

452
00:27:59,410 --> 00:28:01,710
- Until he wants to leave.
-Dorothy.

453
00:28:01,780 --> 00:28:04,180
Midnight, he wants to go home.

454
00:28:04,250 --> 00:28:05,910
Janet says
that she's having too much fun.

455
00:28:05,980 --> 00:28:09,420
-Dorothy.
- 2:30 a.m., the queen wants to leave.

456
00:28:09,480 --> 00:28:10,750
Alan had found
a second wind.

457
00:28:10,820 --> 00:28:13,120
She literally has it
dragged out of here.

458
00:28:13,190 --> 00:28:14,590
You never loved her.

459
00:28:14,660 --> 00:28:16,650
It's because
she's a bitch, darling.

460
00:28:16,720 --> 00:28:18,850
But I have him
always appreciated.

461
00:28:18,930 --> 00:28:21,190
They followed
Janet's program.

462
00:28:21,260 --> 00:28:22,630
He wants to leave,
she says no.

463
00:28:22,700 --> 00:28:23,960
She wants to leave,
they leave.

464
00:28:24,030 --> 00:28:26,160
She had an appointment.

465
00:28:26,230 --> 00:28:29,360
Check the records
weapons... everywhere.

466
00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:32,630
- It's still thin.
- Then make the thing bigger.

467
00:28:32,710 --> 00:28:34,680
- I want a conviction.
- For whom?

468
00:28:34,740 --> 00:28:37,270
The only accused here,
It's Himes.

469
00:28:37,350 --> 00:28:40,910
- But I want Janet too.
- Bloodlust, Adam?

470
00:28:42,020 --> 00:28:43,510
You look at a calendar,
sometimes?

471
00:28:44,690 --> 00:28:46,810
Next year is
an election year...

472
00:28:49,190 --> 00:28:52,090
It's easy to buy a gun...
Not a lot of paperwork.

473
00:28:52,160 --> 00:28:54,250
A state demands a lot
paperwork,

474
00:28:54,330 --> 00:28:56,730
so it's not that easy
to buy a weapon.

475
00:28:56,800 --> 00:28:59,490
We are looking for a place,
without waiting period,

476
00:28:59,570 --> 00:29:01,630
but where they keep
precise records.

477
00:29:01,700 --> 00:29:04,500
That leaves Kentucky,
Delaware,

478
00:29:04,570 --> 00:29:06,440
Tennessee, Virginia,

479
00:29:06,510 --> 00:29:08,440
North Carolina.

480
00:29:08,510 --> 00:29:10,170
Is that all?

481
00:29:10,240 --> 00:29:12,640
If we don't find it,
we are bad.

482
00:29:13,710 --> 00:29:17,450
Let's get the readings
their credit cards,

483
00:29:17,520 --> 00:29:19,540
out of the 12,
Last 18 months.

484
00:29:19,620 --> 00:29:23,020
Business trips, vacations...
have they been in one of these states?

485
00:29:23,090 --> 00:29:26,550
The guy offered
a reward of $50,000.

486
00:29:28,400 --> 00:29:29,950
Crime of passion.

487
00:29:31,530 --> 00:29:33,860
Apart from a contract
from the underworld,

488
00:29:33,940 --> 00:29:36,340
it's the least crime
passion that I have seen.

489
00:29:37,410 --> 00:29:41,640
This swelling of Himes
who claimed to help them...

490
00:29:41,710 --> 00:29:45,170
Helping the Ralstons find
a new house,

491
00:29:45,250 --> 00:29:47,980
checking schools
for children,

492
00:29:48,050 --> 00:29:50,710
preparing for arrival
of a new baby.

493
00:29:50,790 --> 00:29:53,020
Are you talking about an advisor?
financial.

494
00:29:55,490 --> 00:29:57,050
And their finances?

495
00:29:59,830 --> 00:30:02,230
This woman...
Very elegant.

496
00:30:02,300 --> 00:30:04,820
She comes here five,
six, seven times a day.

497
00:30:04,900 --> 00:30:07,030
Every time
with a different type.

498
00:30:07,100 --> 00:30:10,040
In fact,
she was making passes.

499
00:30:10,100 --> 00:30:12,070
And when we cornered her,
she said,

500
00:30:12,140 --> 00:30:14,510
“It’s a lot
cheaper than a hotel.

501
00:30:16,810 --> 00:30:18,470
You found
what you were looking for?

502
00:30:22,380 --> 00:30:23,870
INSURANCE DEPARTMENT

503
00:30:23,950 --> 00:30:27,650
There are standards,
but it all depends on the broker.

504
00:30:27,720 --> 00:30:29,660
Just the standards.

505
00:30:29,720 --> 00:30:31,210
Before they change
their contract,

506
00:30:31,290 --> 00:30:34,390
the Ralstons had already
2 million life insurance.

507
00:30:34,460 --> 00:30:36,360
Everything about him.

508
00:30:36,430 --> 00:30:37,900
Two million?

509
00:30:37,970 --> 00:30:40,430
Most couples
assures the woman too.

510
00:30:40,500 --> 00:30:42,560
His role costs money
to replace.

511
00:30:42,640 --> 00:30:44,130
Childcare, housekeeping...

512
00:30:44,210 --> 00:30:47,400
- But not the Ralstons.
- And the new contract?

513
00:30:47,480 --> 00:30:48,840
Three million more.

514
00:30:48,910 --> 00:30:50,970
Let's say...

515
00:30:51,050 --> 00:30:52,540
that crosses the line.

516
00:30:52,610 --> 00:30:54,550
The agent would not have
had to write it?

517
00:30:54,620 --> 00:30:56,850
He should have asked himself
what was happening.

518
00:30:56,920 --> 00:31:00,950
In addition to personal insurance,
4 million for his business.

519
00:31:01,020 --> 00:31:05,120
- Is that unusual?
- No, if it's for the associates.

520
00:31:05,190 --> 00:31:07,460
Alan Ralston's beneficiary?

521
00:31:07,530 --> 00:31:09,220
His wife.

522
00:31:10,530 --> 00:31:13,970
It wasn't life insurance,
it was the lottery.

523
00:31:14,040 --> 00:31:18,630
- Mrs. Ralston draws the correct numbers...
- And it affects nine million.

524
00:31:20,470 --> 00:31:22,810
PROSECUTOR’S OFFICE
THURSDAY AUGUST 30

525
00:31:23,880 --> 00:31:25,640
What do you think?

526
00:31:25,710 --> 00:31:29,950
For me, Himes wanted
that Ralston is over-insured.

527
00:31:30,020 --> 00:31:31,920
Even after Janet
broke up?

528
00:31:31,990 --> 00:31:34,110
A true philanthropist.

529
00:31:34,190 --> 00:31:35,990
Candidate for the
“Best Friend of the Year”.

530
00:31:36,060 --> 00:31:38,390
And if she
hadn't broken up?

531
00:31:38,460 --> 00:31:41,090
No, we have nothing
on the girl. Tear?

532
00:31:41,160 --> 00:31:44,600
We got responses from Kentucky,
from Tennessee, from Delaware

533
00:31:44,670 --> 00:31:46,030
and Carolina
from the North. Nothing.

534
00:31:46,100 --> 00:31:47,590
What do we have left?

535
00:31:47,670 --> 00:31:49,430
Virginia. Let's hope
that we will be lucky.

536
00:31:49,500 --> 00:31:53,460
A year ago, just after
Janet's assault.

537
00:31:53,540 --> 00:31:57,530
In Virginia, at
"Tracy Hunting and Sport".

538
00:31:57,610 --> 00:32:01,170
- A sporting weapon?
- If you hunt humans.

539
00:32:01,250 --> 00:32:04,740
Beretta model 94, blowback
semi-automatic. 9mm.

540
00:32:04,820 --> 00:32:06,810
Sold to Himes, Gilbert?

541
00:32:08,190 --> 00:32:10,680
And not to Janet Ralston,
neither.

542
00:32:10,760 --> 00:32:12,250
Alan Ralston?

543
00:32:13,660 --> 00:32:18,220
If they don't change their story, we
will only have it for manslaughter.

544
00:32:18,300 --> 00:32:19,730
And she won't get anything.

545
00:32:19,800 --> 00:32:23,200
She has already prepared
his defense.

546
00:32:23,270 --> 00:32:25,670
She said
that he seemed crazy.

547
00:32:27,210 --> 00:32:29,870
You used Alan's gun,
isn't it?

548
00:32:31,480 --> 00:32:33,470
I love Janet Ralston.

549
00:32:33,550 --> 00:32:35,070
Want to make a deal?

550
00:32:35,150 --> 00:32:39,140
And the gun. She tells you
put it back before the party?

551
00:32:39,220 --> 00:32:42,950
No further questions,
until we have a proposal.

552
00:32:43,020 --> 00:32:46,460
If he gives Mrs. Ralston, with proof...
Manslaughter.

553
00:32:46,530 --> 00:32:50,550
This is not an offer.
It's an insult.

554
00:32:50,630 --> 00:32:52,460
Come, Gil.

555
00:33:00,840 --> 00:33:02,780
Himes really likes it.

556
00:33:02,840 --> 00:33:05,870
But he prefers to get away with it
at a lower cost.

557
00:33:05,950 --> 00:33:09,180
If we don't solve the story,
his wish will be fulfilled.

558
00:33:09,250 --> 00:33:11,410
So let's find
what happened.

559
00:33:13,190 --> 00:33:15,750
RIKER ISLAND PRISON
MONDAY SEPTEMBER 3

560
00:33:15,820 --> 00:33:17,650
Let's start again, Willie.

561
00:33:17,730 --> 00:33:20,190
How many times
am I going to tell it?

562
00:33:20,260 --> 00:33:23,560
The light goes out,
and then what?

563
00:33:23,630 --> 00:33:25,960
I hear a cry,
then a gunshot.

564
00:33:26,030 --> 00:33:28,130
- After the light goes out?
- At the same time.

565
00:33:29,370 --> 00:33:30,960
Tell me everything again.

566
00:33:32,370 --> 00:33:34,310
The light goes out.
I hear shooting.

567
00:33:34,380 --> 00:33:36,970
The door opens
two seconds later.

568
00:33:37,040 --> 00:33:40,310
I hear two more
gunshots, I get away.

569
00:33:41,380 --> 00:33:43,980
With the light out,
how did you see the door open?

570
00:33:45,050 --> 00:33:47,250
The parking lot light
entered.

571
00:33:47,320 --> 00:33:48,750
After the first shot.

572
00:33:48,820 --> 00:33:51,850
Am I speaking too quickly?
That's what I said.

573
00:33:51,930 --> 00:33:54,900
The light goes out,
then bang.

574
00:33:54,960 --> 00:33:56,990
The door opens,
bang, bang.

575
00:33:59,100 --> 00:34:01,260
Willie lights a rock,

576
00:34:01,340 --> 00:34:02,830
the light goes out.

577
00:34:02,900 --> 00:34:06,100
The first shot went off
before the door opens.

578
00:34:07,170 --> 00:34:10,080
Then the door opens,
and two more shots.

579
00:34:10,140 --> 00:34:13,440
But if it's really Himes
who goes down the stairs,

580
00:34:13,510 --> 00:34:14,880
he is heading
towards the light...

581
00:34:14,950 --> 00:34:16,940
Unscrew the bulb.

582
00:34:17,020 --> 00:34:18,780
He hasn't yet
opened the door.

583
00:34:18,850 --> 00:34:20,120
A gunshot goes off.

584
00:34:20,190 --> 00:34:22,620
So who shot
on Alan Ralston?

585
00:34:23,690 --> 00:34:26,220
Willie is
a valid witness?

586
00:34:26,290 --> 00:34:28,230
Enough for me.

587
00:34:28,300 --> 00:34:29,590
Go pick it.

588
00:34:34,870 --> 00:34:37,340
Janet Ralston,
you are under arrest

589
00:34:37,400 --> 00:34:39,240
for the murder
by Alan Ralston.

590
00:34:39,310 --> 00:34:41,140
You can keep silent

591
00:34:41,210 --> 00:34:43,140
and refuse to answer
to questions.

592
00:34:43,210 --> 00:34:46,010
Everything you say
may be held against you...

593
00:34:48,080 --> 00:34:52,250
You say the first shot was
fired before the door opened.

594
00:34:52,320 --> 00:34:55,380
The light goes out, bang.

595
00:34:55,460 --> 00:34:56,950
Then the door opens.

596
00:34:57,030 --> 00:34:59,720
But two seconds later
the light goes out,

597
00:34:59,800 --> 00:35:03,290
two more shots.
Bang, bang.

598
00:35:03,370 --> 00:35:05,990
THANKS. No further questions,
Your Honor.

599
00:35:08,070 --> 00:35:10,100
Mr. Tivnan...

600
00:35:11,410 --> 00:35:14,840
what were you doing in
the parking lot stairs?

601
00:35:17,580 --> 00:35:19,340
I smoked crack.

602
00:35:21,880 --> 00:35:23,940
This addiction...

603
00:35:24,020 --> 00:35:26,080
how much does it cost you?

604
00:35:28,090 --> 00:35:29,820
$200 per day.

605
00:35:33,600 --> 00:35:35,090
You have a job,
Mr. Tivnan?

606
00:35:35,160 --> 00:35:38,260
Objection. His work has nothing
to do with his testimony.

607
00:35:38,330 --> 00:35:41,430
It's his state of mind
which it is about.

608
00:35:41,500 --> 00:35:44,470
Rejected. That the witness
answers the question.

609
00:35:46,880 --> 00:35:50,140
I sell books
and magazines on the street.

610
00:35:51,210 --> 00:35:55,010
It pays
your doses of crack?

611
00:35:55,080 --> 00:35:58,050
People read a lot.

612
00:36:00,790 --> 00:36:03,020
Thank you, Mr. Tivnan.

613
00:36:03,090 --> 00:36:06,120
During the autopsy,
you examined

614
00:36:06,190 --> 00:36:08,860
the angle of injury
from Mr. Ralston?

615
00:36:08,930 --> 00:36:10,730
- Indeed.
- What did you discover?

616
00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:14,760
Light burns on
Mr. Ralston's tuxedo

617
00:36:14,840 --> 00:36:17,770
indicating that the blow
had been shot

618
00:36:17,840 --> 00:36:19,770
about a meter away.

619
00:36:19,840 --> 00:36:23,330
The ball went in
under the thorax.

620
00:36:23,410 --> 00:36:26,570
Going upwards,
she pierced the lung...

621
00:36:26,650 --> 00:36:28,340
and didn't care
in the heart.

622
00:36:29,480 --> 00:36:31,540
From these findings,
Mr. Borak,

623
00:36:31,620 --> 00:36:34,990
can you deduce
the size of the shooter?

624
00:36:35,060 --> 00:36:39,430
Yes. According to the angle
ball entry,

625
00:36:39,490 --> 00:36:41,960
the person who
shot him

626
00:36:42,030 --> 00:36:44,160
should measure
less than 1m60.

627
00:36:45,330 --> 00:36:48,200
In other words, someone
shorter than Mr. Ralston.

628
00:36:48,270 --> 00:36:49,760
Yes, that's it.

629
00:36:50,840 --> 00:36:52,810
Nothing to add,
Your Honor.

630
00:36:56,680 --> 00:37:00,080
If the ground of this parking lot
was sloping,

631
00:37:00,150 --> 00:37:03,910
would this affect your estimate
the size of the shooter?

632
00:37:03,990 --> 00:37:07,510
- Yes.
- Well, it's sloping.

633
00:37:07,590 --> 00:37:10,150
The assassin could be
a 1m80 man

634
00:37:10,230 --> 00:37:12,320
pulling from the bottom of the slope?

635
00:37:12,390 --> 00:37:14,830
- Yes, it's possible.
- THANKS.

636
00:37:14,900 --> 00:37:16,520
Nothing to add,
Your Honor.

637
00:37:19,230 --> 00:37:21,200
Ms. Stark,
months have passed.

638
00:37:21,270 --> 00:37:22,960
Do you remember the Ralstons?

639
00:37:23,040 --> 00:37:26,200
Yes. A cute couple
on vacation.

640
00:37:26,270 --> 00:37:28,330
They were arriving
of the mountain.

641
00:37:28,410 --> 00:37:30,940
Ralston knew what kind
gun he wanted to buy?

642
00:37:31,010 --> 00:37:33,850
He knew nothing about weapons.

643
00:37:33,920 --> 00:37:36,650
I showed him some
a few.

644
00:37:36,720 --> 00:37:38,310
Did he choose one?

645
00:37:38,390 --> 00:37:42,580
It was madame who said
that they had to have one.

646
00:37:42,660 --> 00:37:46,220
He said he didn't want to
weapons in the house...

647
00:37:46,290 --> 00:37:48,260
that one of the children
could get injured.

648
00:37:48,330 --> 00:37:50,700
She kept reminding him

649
00:37:50,770 --> 00:37:53,790
that she had been
attacked in the street.

650
00:37:53,870 --> 00:37:57,430
So Mr. Ralston didn't want to
buy gun?

651
00:37:57,510 --> 00:38:02,240
No, it was Mrs. Ralston
who wanted.

652
00:38:02,310 --> 00:38:04,900
She insisted on
that he buys the Beretta.

653
00:38:07,550 --> 00:38:09,920
THANKS. No further questions.

654
00:38:13,150 --> 00:38:15,180
You wanted this interview.

655
00:38:15,260 --> 00:38:18,350
Himes harassed Mrs. Ralston
emotionally,

656
00:38:18,430 --> 00:38:21,330
but she never
believed his threats.

657
00:38:21,400 --> 00:38:23,860
After he has you
shot at,

658
00:38:23,930 --> 00:38:25,370
you didn't go
see the police.

659
00:38:25,430 --> 00:38:28,530
I told you...
I was scared.

660
00:38:28,600 --> 00:38:31,540
The only mistake
by Mrs. Ralston

661
00:38:31,610 --> 00:38:34,470
is to have said where
Mr. Ralston was hiding his gun.

662
00:38:36,310 --> 00:38:41,340
Against facilitation charges
and conspiracy,

663
00:38:41,420 --> 00:38:43,980
and she will testify
against Mr. Himes.

664
00:38:44,050 --> 00:38:45,880
Are you kidding?

665
00:38:45,950 --> 00:38:47,790
This woman is on trial
for murder.

666
00:38:47,860 --> 00:38:49,620
Are you proposing two crimes?

667
00:38:49,690 --> 00:38:51,990
I'm not kidding
in these cases.

668
00:38:52,060 --> 00:38:56,330
If you considered homicide
involuntary, we could discuss.

669
00:38:56,400 --> 00:38:59,770
So we have nothing
to tell us.

670
00:39:04,870 --> 00:39:07,640
They didn't bite. She doesn't think
that we will convince a jury.

671
00:39:07,710 --> 00:39:10,140
- So, manslaughter.
- A slap on the hand?

672
00:39:10,210 --> 00:39:12,150
Two acquittals
are better than one?

673
00:39:12,210 --> 00:39:14,310
- Let's try again.
- No error.

674
00:39:14,380 --> 00:39:16,650
I will accept
manslaughter.

675
00:39:17,990 --> 00:39:21,650
Mr. Himes, she's getting ready
to fry you.

676
00:39:22,720 --> 00:39:25,390
This testimony about
the size of the shooter?

677
00:39:25,460 --> 00:39:30,120
Your mistress's lawyer
wants to prove that you shot.

678
00:39:30,200 --> 00:39:34,830
He was trying to prove
that none of us did.

679
00:39:36,570 --> 00:39:39,730
Listen to this.
This is the transcription

680
00:39:39,810 --> 00:39:42,540
an interview with Ms. Ralston,
after your arrest.

681
00:39:42,610 --> 00:39:47,170
"I loved Gil Himes, but
he came across as weak and pathetic.

682
00:39:47,250 --> 00:39:51,180
Everything he found for
being happy is a gun.”

683
00:39:52,250 --> 00:39:54,520
It's like this
that it portrays you.

684
00:39:55,590 --> 00:39:58,020
You have a bad game,
Mr. Himes,

685
00:39:58,090 --> 00:39:59,620
and the dealer cheats.

686
00:40:07,070 --> 00:40:09,660
Suppose the murder weapon...

687
00:40:10,740 --> 00:40:12,760
reappeared?

688
00:40:20,950 --> 00:40:23,080
Mr. Himes,

689
00:40:23,150 --> 00:40:25,640
you brush
obstruction of justice.

690
00:40:25,720 --> 00:40:28,550
Don't push, Stone.
He said "let's assume."

691
00:40:28,620 --> 00:40:31,060
And he is judged
for murder.

692
00:40:31,130 --> 00:40:33,530
Suppose we add
obstruction?

693
00:40:33,600 --> 00:40:35,620
Suppose you
never found the gun?

694
00:40:44,710 --> 00:40:46,830
Manslaughter.

695
00:40:46,910 --> 00:40:48,600
You will lose.

696
00:40:48,680 --> 00:40:50,800
This jury will not declare it
not guilty.

697
00:40:59,650 --> 00:41:01,780
Great love.

698
00:41:01,860 --> 00:41:04,190
He would sell it
for 20 cents.

699
00:41:05,260 --> 00:41:07,750
Call Victor Norris.

700
00:41:09,100 --> 00:41:11,190
You have something
something to tell us?

701
00:41:11,270 --> 00:41:15,700
Mr. Himes is thinking of going out again
the murder weapon.

702
00:41:20,610 --> 00:41:23,540
Once, twice...

703
00:41:23,610 --> 00:41:26,550
Two offenses and one year in prison.

704
00:41:26,610 --> 00:41:29,140
Manslaughter,
once...

705
00:41:29,220 --> 00:41:30,450
No way.

706
00:41:30,520 --> 00:41:32,080
Too late.

707
00:41:34,120 --> 00:41:35,950
You don't scare me.

708
00:41:36,020 --> 00:41:38,960
Oh yes, Mrs. Ralston.

709
00:41:39,030 --> 00:41:41,720
You are shaking
and you should.

710
00:41:45,970 --> 00:41:49,400
Mrs. Ralston did
a counter-offer.

711
00:41:49,470 --> 00:41:51,060
It's a stupid game.

712
00:41:51,140 --> 00:41:53,800
Two offenses and one year in prison.

713
00:41:58,950 --> 00:42:00,850
Willful assault.

714
00:42:00,920 --> 00:42:02,850
You can do better.

715
00:42:02,920 --> 00:42:05,010
Voluntary homicide,
he presents the weapon,

716
00:42:05,090 --> 00:42:07,550
and explains how
he planned everything.

717
00:42:13,260 --> 00:42:15,700
The first one to my door wins.

718
00:42:23,610 --> 00:42:25,570
You know why
we are here.

719
00:42:25,640 --> 00:42:27,900
You can't
do that.

720
00:42:35,650 --> 00:42:38,240
Last chance,
ladies and gentlemen.

721
00:42:41,620 --> 00:42:43,320
You have nothing.

722
00:42:47,300 --> 00:42:48,790
Manslaughter.

723
00:42:48,860 --> 00:42:49,990
Sold.

724
00:42:50,060 --> 00:42:53,060
Poor idiot.

725
00:42:53,130 --> 00:42:55,260
We would have been acquitted.

726
00:42:55,340 --> 00:42:57,240
They have nothing.

727
00:42:58,770 --> 00:43:01,140
You are a pitiful softy...

728
00:43:01,210 --> 00:43:03,680
Shit.

729
00:43:05,080 --> 00:43:07,670
You have nothing in your guts.

730
00:43:15,290 --> 00:43:17,660
SUPREME CRIMINAL COURT
WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 10

731
00:43:17,730 --> 00:43:19,490
She had a plan.

732
00:43:19,560 --> 00:43:22,720
That Mrs. Ralston
did she suggest?

733
00:43:22,800 --> 00:43:25,700
She would tell Alan
that she had been attacked...

734
00:43:26,770 --> 00:43:28,930
and would force him
to buy a gun.

735
00:43:31,110 --> 00:43:33,700
The plan included
other things?

736
00:43:34,780 --> 00:43:36,540
Yes.

737
00:43:38,610 --> 00:43:41,380
I had to shoot him
on it, too.

738
00:43:43,320 --> 00:43:45,550
I said, “What?”

739
00:43:47,620 --> 00:43:51,560
She said that
I would shoot him...

740
00:43:53,460 --> 00:43:55,400
after she shot
on him.

741
00:43:56,630 --> 00:43:58,860
The famous evening,

742
00:43:58,930 --> 00:44:01,230
is the plan
gone wrong?

743
00:44:02,370 --> 00:44:05,600
I had to be there
before she shoots Alan.

744
00:44:07,010 --> 00:44:10,170
But he saw the weapon
in his hand,

745
00:44:10,250 --> 00:44:11,540
so she had to shoot...

746
00:44:13,920 --> 00:44:16,750
before he reaches
the stairwell.

747
00:44:20,090 --> 00:44:23,390
Who shot
on Mrs. Ralston?

748
00:44:24,590 --> 00:44:26,220
Me.

749
00:44:30,630 --> 00:44:34,900
This weapon,
Exhibit 26,

750
00:44:34,970 --> 00:44:37,440
the one used
the night of the crime?

751
00:44:38,770 --> 00:44:40,100
Yes.

752
00:44:41,780 --> 00:44:44,750
Now, Mr. Himes,
tell the jury...

753
00:44:46,510 --> 00:44:47,810
what happened...

754
00:44:49,680 --> 00:44:54,250
after Ms. Ralston spoke
to the police, at the Hamstead Hotel.

755
00:44:56,260 --> 00:44:58,750
She called me...
of a telephone booth.

756
00:44:58,830 --> 00:45:03,320
She said they were going to arrest me,
that I should deal with.

757
00:45:05,230 --> 00:45:08,000
I said she was going
lose us.

758
00:45:08,070 --> 00:45:10,060
What were his exact words?

759
00:45:21,720 --> 00:45:24,380
She said,
“You poor guy.

760
00:45:26,090 --> 00:45:28,020
It's manslaughter.

761
00:45:29,090 --> 00:45:31,890
Minimum sentence.
Released to the third.

762
00:45:31,960 --> 00:45:33,890
Less than two years.”

763
00:45:44,440 --> 00:45:49,170
"We will be together",
she said,

764
00:45:50,610 --> 00:45:52,910
“with the money”.

765
00:46:00,150 --> 00:46:02,650
Have you reached a verdict?

766
00:46:02,720 --> 00:46:04,490
Yes, Your Honor.

767
00:46:04,560 --> 00:46:06,390
Let the accused stand up.

768
00:46:14,740 --> 00:46:17,330
For the first
charge,

769
00:46:17,410 --> 00:46:19,840
premeditated murder,

770
00:46:19,910 --> 00:46:21,570
what do you declare?

771
00:46:21,640 --> 00:46:24,080
We declare
the accused guilty.

772
00:46:25,510 --> 00:46:27,850
For the second
charge,

773
00:46:27,920 --> 00:46:31,580
conspiracy,
what do you declare?

774
00:46:31,650 --> 00:46:34,210
We declare
the accused guilty.

775
00:46:40,260 --> 00:46:42,860
Janet Ralston projects
to attack his lawyer.

776
00:46:42,930 --> 00:46:44,920
She never gives up.

777
00:46:45,000 --> 00:46:46,590
Do you draw any conclusions from this?

778
00:46:46,670 --> 00:46:48,230
I try to forget it.

779
00:46:48,300 --> 00:46:50,130
Two men in love with her.

780
00:46:50,200 --> 00:46:52,040
She kills one
and betrayed the other.

781
00:46:52,110 --> 00:46:55,040
It's what?
Greed? Power?

782
00:46:55,110 --> 00:46:56,540
The evil?

783
00:46:56,610 --> 00:46:58,600
You don't believe
not to harm.

784
00:46:58,650 --> 00:47:00,580
I had never met
Janet Ralston.

785
00:47:00,650 --> 00:47:02,620
She is evil
or she is two years old.

786
00:47:02,680 --> 00:47:04,910
She wants what she wants,
whenever she wants.

787
00:47:04,990 --> 00:47:06,480
It's cute.

788
00:47:11,290 --> 00:47:12,950
This story is fiction.

789
00:47:13,030 --> 00:47:14,790
The characters portrayed
are not real.
