1
00:00:01,295 --> 00:00:03,320
<i>In the criminal
justice system,</i>

2
00:00:03,320 --> 00:00:07,299
<i>the people are represented by two
separate yet equally important groups:</i>

3
00:00:07,299 --> 00:00:09,164
<i>The police
who investigate crime,</i>

4
00:00:09,164 --> 00:00:12,034
<i>and the district attorneys
who prosecute the offenders.</i>

5
00:00:12,034 --> 00:00:13,834
<i>These are their stories.</i>

6
00:00:17,411 --> 00:00:20,005
Whatever it costs, my kids
are going to Catholic school.

7
00:00:20,005 --> 00:00:21,206
You're a Baptist.

8
00:00:21,206 --> 00:00:23,841
I don't care. Those nuns
know how to build character.

9
00:00:23,841 --> 00:00:24,906
Here you go, sweetheart.

10
00:00:24,906 --> 00:00:26,782
You're sure that's
very light, no sugar?

11
00:00:26,782 --> 00:00:27,842
That's what you told me.

12
00:00:27,842 --> 00:00:28,946
It has to be very light.

13
00:00:28,946 --> 00:00:31,149
You let go,
it'll float in the air.

14
00:00:33,393 --> 00:00:35,725
Oh, man. Sometimes I want to
forget I'm married, I swear.

15
00:00:35,725 --> 00:00:38,026
You just like her 'cause
her features are white.

16
00:00:38,026 --> 00:00:39,861
Oh, yeah. That's why
I like you so much.

17
00:00:39,861 --> 00:00:40,900
Oh!

18
00:00:40,900 --> 00:00:42,902
Anything with your coffee,
gentlemen?

19
00:00:43,503 --> 00:00:44,003
Dd

20
00:00:55,515 --> 00:00:56,846
Mr. Decker?

21
00:01:14,768 --> 00:01:16,030
Hello.

22
00:01:18,038 --> 00:01:19,437
Mr. Decker?

23
00:01:21,875 --> 00:01:23,308
Mr. Decker?

24
00:01:43,130 --> 00:01:45,395
Looks like an invited guest.

25
00:01:46,267 --> 00:01:47,392
The door was open,

26
00:01:47,392 --> 00:01:48,957
there was no sign
of forced entry.

27
00:01:50,003 --> 00:01:53,097
My dad said, "Be a cop,
look what you miss out on."

28
00:01:53,097 --> 00:01:54,765
This must be what he meant.

29
00:01:54,765 --> 00:01:56,206
They didn't look like that
in my high school yearbook,

30
00:01:56,206 --> 00:01:57,870
that's for sure.

31
00:01:58,612 --> 00:02:00,409
They didn't sell
your high school yearbook

32
00:02:00,409 --> 00:02:01,606
in Times Square.

33
00:02:04,252 --> 00:02:06,220
What've we got,
a rare scissors collector?

34
00:02:06,220 --> 00:02:07,344
Photographic supplies.

35
00:02:07,344 --> 00:02:09,218
They're just like the ones
in the body.

36
00:02:09,218 --> 00:02:12,452
Listen, when you're done
with this, I want it, okay?

37
00:02:12,926 --> 00:02:14,291
Nice work.

38
00:02:14,928 --> 00:02:16,987
Think she needed any help
getting dressed?

39
00:02:16,987 --> 00:02:18,964
I think you don't
make a detective's salary

40
00:02:18,964 --> 00:02:20,624
for being
a photographer's assistant.

41
00:02:20,624 --> 00:02:22,499
When you're through
looking at that body,

42
00:02:22,499 --> 00:02:24,401
would you mind
taking a look at this one?

43
00:02:24,401 --> 00:02:25,631
The girl who found him

44
00:02:25,631 --> 00:02:27,537
was on her way
to have her picture taken.

45
00:02:27,537 --> 00:02:28,767
This guy told her

46
00:02:28,767 --> 00:02:30,707
that she was gonna be
on a magazine cover.

47
00:02:31,845 --> 00:02:34,006
He was supposed
to work tonight, huh?

48
00:02:34,006 --> 00:02:35,571
In his pajamas?

49
00:02:36,283 --> 00:02:37,682
Call it in.

50
00:04:01,402 --> 00:04:03,460
He made all the girls
bring him coffee.

51
00:04:05,038 --> 00:04:06,232
"Very light."

52
00:04:06,232 --> 00:04:08,433
Could've saved bucks,
he bought his own pot.

53
00:04:08,433 --> 00:04:10,408
Wasrt his money, was it?

54
00:04:10,408 --> 00:04:13,037
I was working
at Bloomingdale's,

55
00:04:13,037 --> 00:04:14,774
you know, spraying
cologne at people

56
00:04:14,774 --> 00:04:16,372
coming off the escalator?

57
00:04:16,951 --> 00:04:19,351
Mr. Decker
gave me his card

58
00:04:19,587 --> 00:04:21,281
before I could spray him.

59
00:04:21,555 --> 00:04:23,489
He said I had good cheekbones.

60
00:04:23,489 --> 00:04:25,684
Makes you Number 467, honey.

61
00:04:26,126 --> 00:04:28,754
He had girls in and out
all hours, all lookers,

62
00:04:28,754 --> 00:04:30,729
some of them two,
three times a day.

63
00:04:31,631 --> 00:04:33,690
The man had
very clean fingernails.

64
00:04:33,690 --> 00:04:35,793
Of course developing fluid,
do it every time.

65
00:04:35,793 --> 00:04:37,269
Or a good manicurist.

66
00:04:37,269 --> 00:04:39,465
No one gets manicures any more.

67
00:04:39,465 --> 00:04:41,131
You catch hepatitis.

68
00:04:41,441 --> 00:04:44,239
Isn't here.
Plenty of prints in the loft.

69
00:04:44,239 --> 00:04:46,836
Twelve usable sets
other than the victim's.

70
00:04:46,836 --> 00:04:49,006
I sent 'em all out. None
of them turned up a record.

71
00:04:49,006 --> 00:04:51,107
Maybe you noticed
we found a pair of scissors.

72
00:04:51,107 --> 00:04:53,880
Good thumb and index finger
at the top of the blade.

73
00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:56,287
Great. Now all we need
is a suspect.

74
00:04:56,287 --> 00:04:58,348
Look for a Black Widow Spider.

75
00:04:59,093 --> 00:05:01,117
Don't they kill their mates
after sex?

76
00:05:01,117 --> 00:05:03,128
Your victim had semen
and vaginal secretions

77
00:05:03,128 --> 00:05:04,561
in his Doctor Dentors.

78
00:05:04,561 --> 00:05:07,361
Okay. We find a woman,
can you make a match?

79
00:05:07,361 --> 00:05:09,095
The DNA in vaginal secretions?

80
00:05:09,095 --> 00:05:11,831
When there's
exfoliated epithelial cells,

81
00:05:11,831 --> 00:05:13,601
which there happen to be.

82
00:05:13,601 --> 00:05:15,869
Figure the guy pulls
his pj's on right after

83
00:05:15,869 --> 00:05:17,740
and just before he was killed.

84
00:05:17,740 --> 00:05:19,711
The samples werert even dry.

85
00:05:19,711 --> 00:05:21,610
You got a very
well-mannered killer here.

86
00:05:21,610 --> 00:05:23,205
Waited till he got dressed.

87
00:05:23,205 --> 00:05:25,148
I'm sure he was grateful.

88
00:05:25,785 --> 00:05:28,117
So where does that get us?
A lovers' quarrel?

89
00:05:28,117 --> 00:05:29,348
After sex?

90
00:05:29,348 --> 00:05:31,720
Most people, you fight
and then have sex.

91
00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:32,986
He's not married.

92
00:05:32,986 --> 00:05:34,789
So what is this?
The girlfriend leaves,

93
00:05:34,789 --> 00:05:36,955
he falls asleep,
a burglar wakes him?

94
00:05:36,955 --> 00:05:39,464
And stabs him
in the middle of the loft,

95
00:05:39,464 --> 00:05:41,558
in the back.
No struggle.

96
00:05:41,558 --> 00:05:44,195
I suppose that means
you have a better idea?

97
00:05:45,705 --> 00:05:47,900
He had four appointments
on his calendar.

98
00:05:51,545 --> 00:05:53,537
Julian Decker, huh!
What a loss.

99
00:05:53,537 --> 00:05:55,616
Then you werert
involved with him?

100
00:05:55,616 --> 00:05:57,809
However you mean that,
the answer is no.

101
00:05:57,809 --> 00:05:59,943
I had as little to do
with Julian as possible.

102
00:05:59,943 --> 00:06:02,511
And believe me,
I'd have preferred less.

103
00:06:02,511 --> 00:06:04,648
Do you know who was
involved with him?

104
00:06:04,648 --> 00:06:07,318
This city is full of women
with dreadful taste.

105
00:06:07,318 --> 00:06:09,157
But you're not one of them.

106
00:06:09,157 --> 00:06:11,095
He could smile
the chrome off a fender.

107
00:06:11,095 --> 00:06:12,894
I just didn't want him
around my girls.

108
00:06:12,894 --> 00:06:14,935
All right. So, you werert
working with him.

109
00:06:14,935 --> 00:06:17,265
But why were you his last
appointment yesterday?

110
00:06:17,265 --> 00:06:18,998
In his book, not mine.

111
00:06:18,998 --> 00:06:20,198
He barged in around 5:00.

112
00:06:20,198 --> 00:06:21,865
Wanted me to recommend him
for work.

113
00:06:21,865 --> 00:06:23,341
I asked him to leave.
He did.

114
00:06:23,341 --> 00:06:25,674
Hey, some girls
must've found him attractive.

115
00:06:27,180 --> 00:06:28,306
You'll find my girls

116
00:06:28,306 --> 00:06:30,407
<i>on the covers of Vogue,
Detective.</i>

117
00:06:30,407 --> 00:06:33,453
You'll find Juliars
in catalogue lingerie ads.

118
00:06:33,453 --> 00:06:35,182
Some girls
were interested in him.

119
00:06:35,182 --> 00:06:36,813
But not mine.

120
00:06:38,758 --> 00:06:40,157
Miss Norman?

121
00:06:40,157 --> 00:06:42,558
Gone for three weeks, Barbados.

122
00:06:42,558 --> 00:06:44,563
Saturday morning, first class.

123
00:06:44,563 --> 00:06:46,360
She took six suitcases.

124
00:06:48,134 --> 00:06:49,966
I got her sunscreen
before she left.

125
00:06:49,966 --> 00:06:51,732
Number 15, unscented.

126
00:06:51,732 --> 00:06:53,205
You fold her underwear, too?

127
00:06:53,205 --> 00:06:55,138
I like to be close
to my tenants.

128
00:06:55,138 --> 00:06:56,470
I wonder why.

129
00:06:59,579 --> 00:07:01,342
Didrt that calendar
have a red line

130
00:07:01,342 --> 00:07:03,006
through Clarissa Normars name?

131
00:07:03,006 --> 00:07:04,710
It was won'th checking.

132
00:07:04,710 --> 00:07:06,115
The other two are downtown.

133
00:07:06,115 --> 00:07:08,815
The 11:00 is East 16th,
off Park Avenue South.

134
00:07:08,815 --> 00:07:09,947
Angela Brant.

135
00:07:11,092 --> 00:07:13,686
I was making the rounds,
looking for work.

136
00:07:13,686 --> 00:07:14,954
Julian didn't have any.

137
00:07:14,954 --> 00:07:17,997
Which he told me
after I bought him breakfast.

138
00:07:17,997 --> 00:07:19,088
It seems Mr. Decker

139
00:07:19,088 --> 00:07:20,928
liked to take advantage
of people, huh?

140
00:07:21,601 --> 00:07:23,159
Doesrt everybody?

141
00:07:24,170 --> 00:07:27,402
Look, I'll never
have to buy him coffee again,

142
00:07:27,808 --> 00:07:29,673
but I will miss the work.

143
00:07:30,244 --> 00:07:32,178
How old would you say she is?

144
00:07:34,681 --> 00:07:35,978
Maybe 30.

145
00:07:36,616 --> 00:07:38,049
Try 16.

146
00:07:39,185 --> 00:07:41,779
They do her hair and make-up,
she looks 30.

147
00:07:41,779 --> 00:07:45,291
I'm 38, I haven't looked 30
since I was 20.

148
00:07:46,327 --> 00:07:48,386
It's easy to take
advantage of me.

149
00:07:48,386 --> 00:07:51,522
I wouldn't peg you as
that vulnerable, Miss Brant.

150
00:07:52,999 --> 00:07:55,194
I was a model when I was a kid.

151
00:07:55,194 --> 00:07:56,768
In my senior year
in high school,

152
00:07:56,768 --> 00:07:58,633
I made five times
what my father did

153
00:07:58,633 --> 00:08:00,138
in his hardware store.

154
00:08:00,138 --> 00:08:02,265
All the big agencies wanted me.

155
00:08:02,876 --> 00:08:04,936
Celeste Foxx herself
came around.

156
00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:08,348
Problem is, it doesn't last.

157
00:08:08,348 --> 00:08:10,417
You're still working.

158
00:08:10,417 --> 00:08:12,610
I have a daughter
in private school.

159
00:08:12,610 --> 00:08:15,120
I'll be doing catalogues
from the grave.

160
00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:17,816
Sounds like
you needed Mr. Decker a lot.

161
00:08:18,024 --> 00:08:19,753
Not enough to sleep with him.

162
00:08:19,753 --> 00:08:21,259
You know who did?

163
00:08:22,295 --> 00:08:25,163
I told you, I didn't work
for him that much.

164
00:08:25,700 --> 00:08:28,396
Now, if that's all,
I'm late for aerobics.

165
00:08:28,396 --> 00:08:30,198
Uh, just one more thing,
Miss Brant.

166
00:08:31,638 --> 00:08:33,469
Can you tell us
where you were from, uh,

167
00:08:33,469 --> 00:08:35,633
let's say, 6:00 to
about 8:00 last night?

168
00:08:35,633 --> 00:08:36,801
What?

169
00:08:38,511 --> 00:08:39,637
Hi, kids.

170
00:08:39,637 --> 00:08:40,737
Hi.

171
00:08:41,414 --> 00:08:42,745
What's going on?

172
00:08:42,745 --> 00:08:44,785
I have to go out.
We can discuss it later.

173
00:08:44,785 --> 00:08:46,444
Why don't you go
hang out in your room

174
00:08:46,444 --> 00:08:47,612
for a while, okay?

175
00:08:47,612 --> 00:08:49,246
Okay.
Okay.

176
00:08:50,924 --> 00:08:53,358
I admitted I didn't like him.

177
00:08:53,827 --> 00:08:55,624
Can we finish
this some other time?

178
00:08:55,624 --> 00:08:58,562
Could you just tell us
where you were last night?

179
00:08:59,432 --> 00:09:01,924
I had dinner
with my ex-husband.

180
00:09:01,924 --> 00:09:03,970
Got home around 9:00.

181
00:09:03,970 --> 00:09:06,529
Jeffrey Brant. He's a banker.

182
00:09:08,209 --> 00:09:11,700
Until when? Okay.
Well, thank you, Mr. Brant.

183
00:09:13,179 --> 00:09:15,147
The ex-husband says
that he was with her

184
00:09:15,147 --> 00:09:17,479
from 6:00 until
some time past 8:00.

185
00:09:17,479 --> 00:09:18,608
It's an alibi,

186
00:09:18,608 --> 00:09:21,120
unless she got to
the phone before we did.

187
00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:24,680
Next up, Betty Ann Can'ter,
West 24th.

188
00:09:25,426 --> 00:09:27,223
Want to bet she didn't
like him either?

189
00:09:27,223 --> 00:09:28,851
Look on the bright side.

190
00:09:28,851 --> 00:09:30,259
If we do this all week,

191
00:09:30,259 --> 00:09:32,230
<i>you'll never have
to buy Playboy again.</i>

192
00:09:32,230 --> 00:09:33,424
What are you saying?

193
00:09:33,424 --> 00:09:34,967
I treat all women like objects?

194
00:09:34,967 --> 00:09:36,968
More specific.
Like furniture.

195
00:09:37,871 --> 00:09:39,897
This one, I promise,
I won't even look at her.

196
00:09:42,076 --> 00:09:44,203
What do you want me
to do? Cry?

197
00:09:44,203 --> 00:09:47,475
I'll send a check to
the Dead Photographers' fund.

198
00:09:48,581 --> 00:09:50,242
You did work for him,
Miss Can'ter.

199
00:09:50,242 --> 00:09:53,012
You don't have a bed,
you sleep in the gutter.

200
00:09:53,012 --> 00:09:54,747
I get into shape,
I'm out of catalogues

201
00:09:54,747 --> 00:09:56,379
and back in magazines.

202
00:09:56,379 --> 00:09:59,017
You don't look like
you're falling apart.

203
00:09:59,017 --> 00:10:01,391
You should've seen me
at 19, sugar.

204
00:10:01,391 --> 00:10:03,259
Miss Southern Alabama
Cotton Queen.

205
00:10:03,259 --> 00:10:05,025
Without liftir a finger.

206
00:10:05,025 --> 00:10:08,499
<i>Cover of Mademoiselle.
Studio 54 till dawn.</i>

207
00:10:08,902 --> 00:10:11,132
Julian said
that I was finished.

208
00:10:11,771 --> 00:10:15,229
Well, Lauren Huttors past 40.

209
00:10:15,229 --> 00:10:17,538
She works.
I'm still a Size 6.

210
00:10:18,312 --> 00:10:19,643
You'll pardon me,

211
00:10:19,643 --> 00:10:22,181
but if this is what you get
when you're out of work...

212
00:10:22,449 --> 00:10:23,780
Oh, yeah.

213
00:10:23,984 --> 00:10:26,508
Well, used to be owned
by me and Citibank.

214
00:10:26,508 --> 00:10:28,850
Now, just the bank,
and they're sellir it.

215
00:10:29,622 --> 00:10:32,284
Poor Julian,
may he rest in hell.

216
00:10:32,625 --> 00:10:34,286
Who do you think killed him?

217
00:10:34,286 --> 00:10:36,419
We think he had a girlfriend.

218
00:10:36,419 --> 00:10:38,761
Oh. I see.

219
00:10:39,333 --> 00:10:40,698
Last night?

220
00:10:41,168 --> 00:10:42,999
I was on a revolving pedestal

221
00:10:42,999 --> 00:10:45,197
pointir at the kind of yacht
I used to cruise on.

222
00:10:45,197 --> 00:10:46,761
Boat show, the Meadowlands.

223
00:10:46,761 --> 00:10:48,967
Better than what
a lot of girls end up doir.

224
00:10:48,967 --> 00:10:51,101
You mean to supplement
their income.

225
00:10:51,101 --> 00:10:53,077
What do you think you do
when this goes,

226
00:10:53,077 --> 00:10:55,137
and these are
all you have left?

227
00:10:56,450 --> 00:10:57,781
Thank you.

228
00:10:59,353 --> 00:11:01,878
She was on a yacht display
from 3:00 till 10:00.

229
00:11:01,878 --> 00:11:03,218
She didn't get dizzy?

230
00:11:03,218 --> 00:11:04,916
No, she got a break
from 5:00 to 7:00.

231
00:11:04,916 --> 00:11:06,481
The guy doesn't know
where she was.

232
00:11:06,481 --> 00:11:08,720
All right. Well, that's a
half-hour through the tunnel,

233
00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:10,422
and a half-hour back.

234
00:11:10,422 --> 00:11:12,589
That gives her
just enough time.

235
00:11:12,589 --> 00:11:14,257
Not unless she can fly.

236
00:11:14,257 --> 00:11:15,461
I went to see the in-laws,

237
00:11:15,461 --> 00:11:17,504
one of the tubes
was closed in the Lincoln.

238
00:11:17,504 --> 00:11:18,731
Two hours just to get there.

239
00:11:18,731 --> 00:11:20,671
Round-trip in two hours?
No way.

240
00:11:20,671 --> 00:11:23,574
We got no girlfriend. We don't
even know who could've been there.

241
00:11:23,574 --> 00:11:25,975
All we got is a sleazeball
who was begging for work.

242
00:11:25,975 --> 00:11:28,445
Who says the one he had sex
with is the one who killed him?

243
00:11:28,445 --> 00:11:30,414
Wait a minute.
Am I missing something here?

244
00:11:30,414 --> 00:11:32,178
This guy was begging for work?

245
00:11:32,178 --> 00:11:34,687
He even made the girls
buy him coffee.

246
00:11:34,687 --> 00:11:38,020
Expensive camera equipment,
3,000 square feet in Tribeca.

247
00:11:38,020 --> 00:11:40,026
This guy must've been
one heck of a beggar.

248
00:11:40,026 --> 00:11:41,618
Find out how he paid
for his life,

249
00:11:41,618 --> 00:11:43,924
maybe we find out
the reason it's over.

250
00:11:43,924 --> 00:11:45,055
Not much in the loft.

251
00:11:45,055 --> 00:11:46,928
What, there were boxes
of receipts.

252
00:11:46,928 --> 00:11:48,968
And four-year-old tax returns.

253
00:11:48,968 --> 00:11:50,593
Signed by a CPA?

254
00:11:52,772 --> 00:11:53,967
Mr. Decker.

255
00:11:55,242 --> 00:11:59,941
He reported $68,000
gross income last year.

256
00:12:00,381 --> 00:12:02,281
According to
his travel records,

257
00:12:02,281 --> 00:12:04,873
his trips to the islands
cost at least half that.

258
00:12:04,873 --> 00:12:06,578
Those were photo shoots.

259
00:12:06,578 --> 00:12:08,518
That's a legitimate
business deduction.

260
00:12:08,518 --> 00:12:11,216
And his food, and his mortgage,

261
00:12:11,216 --> 00:12:13,954
and his clothes, and
his equipment, and Uncle Sam,

262
00:12:13,954 --> 00:12:15,996
all came out of the rest of it?

263
00:12:15,996 --> 00:12:18,327
Well, I only know
what he reported.

264
00:12:18,327 --> 00:12:20,890
I don't know a thing
about his other income.

265
00:12:21,635 --> 00:12:23,602
If there was any other income.

266
00:12:26,873 --> 00:12:29,307
You like to go to the islands,
too, Mr. O'Hara?

267
00:12:29,307 --> 00:12:30,842
Me? No,

268
00:12:31,145 --> 00:12:33,113
my skin can't take the sun.

269
00:12:33,614 --> 00:12:34,638
That's good,

270
00:12:34,638 --> 00:12:36,376
'cause if you signed
those tax returns

271
00:12:36,376 --> 00:12:37,747
knowing he had other income,

272
00:12:37,747 --> 00:12:39,979
you're gonna be
out of the sun a long time.

273
00:12:43,790 --> 00:12:47,055
Okay, look.
Models have a short life span.

274
00:12:47,055 --> 00:12:49,651
Julian found them other work.

275
00:12:50,264 --> 00:12:51,822
Remember the guy in the diner?

276
00:12:51,822 --> 00:12:53,628
Said girls were going
in and out of there

277
00:12:53,628 --> 00:12:55,100
two, three times a day.

278
00:12:55,100 --> 00:12:56,636
What were they doing,
Mr. O'Hara?

279
00:12:56,636 --> 00:12:58,433
Getting their
graduation photos taken?

280
00:12:58,433 --> 00:13:00,734
Okay. A lot of guys
who'll pay big bucks

281
00:13:00,734 --> 00:13:03,605
to see a girl from the swimsuit
issue without her swimsuit.

282
00:13:03,605 --> 00:13:04,665
So that the guy could

283
00:13:04,665 --> 00:13:06,575
slip into something
more comfortable.

284
00:13:08,081 --> 00:13:10,312
Everybody's a consenting adult.

285
00:13:10,312 --> 00:13:12,852
No harm, no foul, right?

286
00:13:18,292 --> 00:13:21,283
This guy was not only
a photographer, he was a pimp.

287
00:13:21,283 --> 00:13:23,226
Yeah, and where does
that get you?

288
00:13:23,226 --> 00:13:25,059
A john did it?
One of his girls?

289
00:13:25,059 --> 00:13:27,190
We don't know any of
his johns. Or his girls.

290
00:13:27,190 --> 00:13:29,735
Well, you'd better start with
all the models he photographed.

291
00:13:29,735 --> 00:13:31,430
Check their bank accounts.

292
00:13:31,430 --> 00:13:33,063
The cotton queen.

293
00:13:33,574 --> 00:13:35,303
She talked about
what the other girls did

294
00:13:35,303 --> 00:13:36,638
when their faces went.

295
00:13:36,638 --> 00:13:38,507
She didn't mean
they got rich boyfriends.

296
00:13:38,507 --> 00:13:40,102
Rich boyfriends by the hour.

297
00:13:40,102 --> 00:13:42,409
But she didn't know
Decker was a pimp.

298
00:13:42,409 --> 00:13:44,416
Or she didn't want to tell us.

299
00:13:45,518 --> 00:13:47,453
Sure he asked me to do it.

300
00:13:47,453 --> 00:13:50,752
$2,500 a week on my back
instead of $500 on my feet.

301
00:13:51,191 --> 00:13:52,954
Well, it must've been tempting.

302
00:13:52,954 --> 00:13:54,289
Maybe to you.

303
00:13:54,289 --> 00:13:56,158
But, honey,
I don't think you'd survive.

304
00:13:56,158 --> 00:13:59,289
In my experience, cops just
can't perform that often.

305
00:13:59,966 --> 00:14:02,196
So, you never
turned a trick, huh?

306
00:14:02,568 --> 00:14:03,967
Those beauty contests,

307
00:14:03,967 --> 00:14:06,336
some cracker judge
would put his hands on my ass

308
00:14:06,336 --> 00:14:08,238
and offer me more money
than I'd ever seen

309
00:14:08,238 --> 00:14:09,468
to be his date.

310
00:14:09,468 --> 00:14:12,103
I didn't do it then,
I don't do it now.

311
00:14:12,479 --> 00:14:14,208
That doesn't mean
I have any cause

312
00:14:14,208 --> 00:14:15,612
to look down on those who do.

313
00:14:15,612 --> 00:14:17,512
That's real democratic of you.

314
00:14:17,512 --> 00:14:19,107
Well, it's a free country.

315
00:14:19,107 --> 00:14:21,312
At least I don't drink
from the taxpayer's trough,

316
00:14:21,312 --> 00:14:22,684
like some people.

317
00:14:24,924 --> 00:14:27,018
Did Mr. Decker try
to put pressure on you?

318
00:14:27,018 --> 00:14:28,493
Oh, every time I was there.

319
00:14:28,493 --> 00:14:29,927
He'd be at his little computer,

320
00:14:29,927 --> 00:14:31,862
addir up the money
the girls would bring.

321
00:14:31,862 --> 00:14:32,899
But I told him,

322
00:14:32,899 --> 00:14:35,196
"Honey, you can type
till your fingers fall off.

323
00:14:35,196 --> 00:14:37,327
I work vertical
or not at all."

324
00:14:41,908 --> 00:14:44,001
We found files
on Decker's hard drive,

325
00:14:44,001 --> 00:14:45,477
one for each month.

326
00:14:45,477 --> 00:14:47,138
They go back two years.

327
00:14:47,138 --> 00:14:48,704
Trouble is,
they have passwords.

328
00:14:48,704 --> 00:14:50,113
Well, can't you break the code?

329
00:14:50,113 --> 00:14:52,152
Randomly I wouldn't
find the right algorithm

330
00:14:52,152 --> 00:14:53,447
till next summer.

331
00:14:53,447 --> 00:14:55,511
FBI computers could do it.

332
00:14:56,055 --> 00:14:57,386
Six weeks.

333
00:14:57,623 --> 00:14:59,523
Six weeks. Oh, no problem.
Right, Phil?

334
00:14:59,523 --> 00:15:00,957
Our case won't go cold.

335
00:15:00,957 --> 00:15:02,187
What's on the files?

336
00:15:02,187 --> 00:15:03,854
We were hoping hookers.

337
00:15:05,799 --> 00:15:07,562
What would he call them?

338
00:15:07,562 --> 00:15:08,862
Hookers.

339
00:15:13,941 --> 00:15:17,137
Wiseass.
You know the guy's birthday?

340
00:15:19,445 --> 00:15:21,538
November 15, 1959.

341
00:15:27,621 --> 00:15:29,816
Okay, the initials
must be hookers

342
00:15:29,816 --> 00:15:31,881
with dates and dollar amounts.

343
00:15:32,459 --> 00:15:35,120
The names and addresses
must be the johns.

344
00:15:35,595 --> 00:15:38,894
H.D. Gets anywhere
from $750 to $1,000.

345
00:15:39,599 --> 00:15:41,864
She presses your pants
when she's done.

346
00:15:41,864 --> 00:15:44,699
I have a feeling it's more
specialized than that.

347
00:15:44,699 --> 00:15:47,797
R.L. Mostly $200 a shot,

348
00:15:47,797 --> 00:15:49,740
but she doesn't
work Wednesdays.

349
00:15:49,740 --> 00:15:51,243
Choir practice.

350
00:15:51,612 --> 00:15:54,307
A.B. $150 to $300.

351
00:15:54,814 --> 00:15:57,044
J.S., about the same.

352
00:15:58,351 --> 00:16:01,844
A.B.? His second appointment
of the day.

353
00:16:01,844 --> 00:16:04,117
What, Angela what's her name?

354
00:16:06,693 --> 00:16:08,661
Brant. East 16th.

355
00:16:10,130 --> 00:16:13,826
A.B. Could there be
more than one?

356
00:16:14,167 --> 00:16:16,135
She said she was
with her husband, right?

357
00:16:16,135 --> 00:16:17,692
He confirmed it.

358
00:16:17,692 --> 00:16:19,806
Still, it's won'th a shot.

359
00:16:20,641 --> 00:16:23,201
Allan Rohmer. 874,
Third Avenue.

360
00:16:23,201 --> 00:16:24,801
Every Monday at 6:00.

361
00:16:26,513 --> 00:16:28,310
Late Monday afternoon?

362
00:16:28,310 --> 00:16:30,543
I was probably
casting a commercial.

363
00:16:31,151 --> 00:16:32,742
You use the couch?

364
00:16:34,353 --> 00:16:36,787
Only in movies
from the '50s, Detective.

365
00:16:36,787 --> 00:16:38,381
In advertising
we barely have time

366
00:16:38,381 --> 00:16:39,618
to sharpen the pencils.

367
00:16:39,618 --> 00:16:41,422
What did you have time
for Monday night,

368
00:16:41,422 --> 00:16:42,894
let's say around 6:00?

369
00:16:43,564 --> 00:16:44,826
Is this a hobby with you

370
00:16:44,826 --> 00:16:47,128
or are you looking
to change professions?

371
00:16:47,128 --> 00:16:48,930
I was casting
an airline commercial.

372
00:16:48,930 --> 00:16:50,060
I needed stewardesses.

373
00:16:50,060 --> 00:16:53,697
Oh, yeah? Well, fly me.
My initials are A.B.

374
00:16:55,374 --> 00:16:58,173
Do you look for stewardesses
every Monday, Mr. Rohmer?

375
00:17:00,013 --> 00:17:03,073
<i>Look, I, I saw all that
in the Post about Decker,</i>

376
00:17:03,383 --> 00:17:05,851
but what has this
got to do with Angela?

377
00:17:09,022 --> 00:17:10,579
Was Miss Brant here?

378
00:17:10,579 --> 00:17:12,055
Yes. She was very nervous.

379
00:17:12,055 --> 00:17:14,217
She was all worked up.
But you don't think Angela...

380
00:17:14,217 --> 00:17:16,660
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
What was she nervous about?

381
00:17:16,660 --> 00:17:17,958
Look, she's a lovely lady.

382
00:17:17,958 --> 00:17:19,623
I like her a lot.
I didn't ask.

383
00:17:19,623 --> 00:17:21,634
She sharpen your pencil?

384
00:17:21,868 --> 00:17:23,665
She asked if we could skip it,

385
00:17:23,665 --> 00:17:25,261
she wasrt in the mood.

386
00:17:25,261 --> 00:17:27,705
She was only here
maybe 20 minutes.

387
00:17:27,908 --> 00:17:29,375
So, you're tellir me

388
00:17:29,375 --> 00:17:31,501
she makes a stop
on Third Avenue,

389
00:17:31,501 --> 00:17:34,705
cries on his shoulder,
races downtown,

390
00:17:34,705 --> 00:17:36,749
has sex with Decker
and then kills him?

391
00:17:36,749 --> 00:17:38,409
Well, this was a hooker
and her pimp.

392
00:17:38,409 --> 00:17:41,181
Maybe she wanted to change the
deal. Maybe he wanted to change it.

393
00:17:41,181 --> 00:17:43,985
Maybe she couldn't get over
the slaughter in Yugoslavia.

394
00:17:43,985 --> 00:17:46,355
Well, first she said
she was with her ex-husband.

395
00:17:46,355 --> 00:17:48,326
Then it turns out
she's at the ad agency.

396
00:17:48,326 --> 00:17:51,227
She's breaking the law, Mike.
What do you want her to say?

397
00:17:51,227 --> 00:17:53,765
"Oh, that's right, Officer,
I was out turning tricks."

398
00:17:53,765 --> 00:17:55,859
Now, when did the husband
say he was with her?

399
00:17:55,859 --> 00:17:57,631
He said 6:00 to 8:00.

400
00:17:58,205 --> 00:18:00,366
"Hello, dear. If you don't
want your name in the papers

401
00:18:00,366 --> 00:18:02,704
"when the cops get there,
tell them we had dinner

402
00:18:02,704 --> 00:18:04,073
at 6:00, not 7:00."

403
00:18:04,073 --> 00:18:06,442
So she's a liar. It doesn't
mean she's a killer.

404
00:18:06,442 --> 00:18:08,571
I'd like
to toss her apartment anyway.

405
00:18:08,571 --> 00:18:10,582
Just to see if Decker's blood
shows up.

406
00:18:10,582 --> 00:18:12,174
What are you gonna do
for a warrant?

407
00:18:12,174 --> 00:18:13,719
She has an alibi.

408
00:18:14,087 --> 00:18:16,385
Get a print on her. You may
get a match on the scissors.

409
00:18:16,385 --> 00:18:17,923
We already ran her.

410
00:18:17,923 --> 00:18:20,152
No priors, no civil service.

411
00:18:20,152 --> 00:18:22,194
Well,
wait a minute. Phil,

412
00:18:22,194 --> 00:18:23,923
you remember we were leavir,

413
00:18:23,923 --> 00:18:25,225
she was in a big rush

414
00:18:25,225 --> 00:18:26,766
to go to what,
an aerobics class?

415
00:18:26,766 --> 00:18:27,764
So?

416
00:18:27,764 --> 00:18:29,300
So, she didn't leave
with a bag.

417
00:18:29,300 --> 00:18:31,336
Maybe she's got a locker
at the health club.

418
00:18:31,336 --> 00:18:34,033
Excuse me. You don't have
probable cause for an apartment,

419
00:18:34,033 --> 00:18:35,665
you don't have it
for a gym locker.

420
00:18:35,665 --> 00:18:37,004
What?
The outside of a locker?

421
00:18:37,004 --> 00:18:38,601
There's no expectation
of privacy.

422
00:18:38,601 --> 00:18:41,546
How much privacy can you
expect in a locker room?

423
00:18:45,485 --> 00:18:47,076
Are you sure this is legal?

424
00:18:47,076 --> 00:18:49,178
We have your permission.
That makes it legal.

425
00:18:49,178 --> 00:18:50,882
What if I didn't
give permission?

426
00:18:50,882 --> 00:18:53,084
Then we've to go and get a
warrant, come back tomorrow

427
00:18:53,084 --> 00:18:54,650
and close you down
for a whole day,

428
00:18:54,650 --> 00:18:56,696
instead of just
your locker room for an hour.

429
00:19:00,100 --> 00:19:02,261
Got a pretty good thumb
and index finger.

430
00:19:02,261 --> 00:19:03,769
Let's hope they're a match.

431
00:19:03,769 --> 00:19:05,429
Let's hope they're hers.

432
00:19:06,172 --> 00:19:08,265
Hey, Phil.
You know the warrant

433
00:19:08,265 --> 00:19:10,810
you told that healthclub guy
you'd get?

434
00:19:10,810 --> 00:19:13,539
Exactly what probable cause
did you have in mind?

435
00:19:13,539 --> 00:19:14,602
A senile judge.

436
00:19:14,602 --> 00:19:16,012
First prize, gentlemen.

437
00:19:16,012 --> 00:19:18,278
Which of you gets the Styrofoam
dice for the windshield?

438
00:19:18,278 --> 00:19:19,376
What do you got?

439
00:19:19,376 --> 00:19:21,148
Latent said the prints
from the locker

440
00:19:21,148 --> 00:19:23,348
match the prints on the
scissors from Decker's back.

441
00:19:23,348 --> 00:19:25,322
How about that
for probable cause?

442
00:19:26,025 --> 00:19:28,391
I told you I saw
Julian that morning.

443
00:19:28,391 --> 00:19:29,553
You didn't go back later?

444
00:19:29,553 --> 00:19:32,291
I was with my ex-husband. For
dinner. I told you that, too.

445
00:19:32,291 --> 00:19:34,596
Yeah, you told me your ex
was a banker. That's right.

446
00:19:34,596 --> 00:19:36,363
Not an ad exec on Third Avenue.

447
00:19:36,363 --> 00:19:39,234
I didn't want you to know about
that. My daughter was there.

448
00:19:39,234 --> 00:19:40,671
It's not something
I'm proud of.

449
00:19:40,671 --> 00:19:42,732
And I did see
my husband for dinner.

450
00:19:42,732 --> 00:19:44,207
Phil!

451
00:19:53,186 --> 00:19:55,381
Well, if there's blood
on anything, I don't see it.

452
00:19:55,381 --> 00:19:57,423
Decker had sex with somebody.

453
00:19:58,291 --> 00:19:59,849
You think she got up
and went home

454
00:19:59,849 --> 00:20:01,416
without getting dressed?

455
00:20:03,629 --> 00:20:04,755
What can I tell you?

456
00:20:04,755 --> 00:20:06,661
Her prints are
on the murder weapon.

457
00:20:06,661 --> 00:20:08,701
She admits she was
in the loft that morning.

458
00:20:08,701 --> 00:20:10,100
The underwear, Paul.

459
00:20:10,100 --> 00:20:12,070
The vaginal secretions
match what they found

460
00:20:12,070 --> 00:20:13,367
in Decker's pajamas.

461
00:20:13,367 --> 00:20:15,465
She could've had sex
with him in the morning, too.

462
00:20:15,465 --> 00:20:16,770
No, she couldn't.

463
00:20:16,770 --> 00:20:18,868
The sample
from the pajamas was fresh.

464
00:20:18,868 --> 00:20:19,969
How fresh?

465
00:20:19,969 --> 00:20:22,105
What do you want, a videotape
of her boffir the guy

466
00:20:22,105 --> 00:20:24,149
and then stickir
the scissors in his back?

467
00:20:24,650 --> 00:20:25,674
How fresh?

468
00:20:25,674 --> 00:20:28,346
No more than two hours. It puts
her there when he was killed.

469
00:20:28,346 --> 00:20:29,719
She's a hooker, Paul.

470
00:20:29,719 --> 00:20:31,724
She slept with her pimp,
she got very angry,

471
00:20:31,724 --> 00:20:33,384
and she stabbed him.

472
00:20:33,384 --> 00:20:35,121
<i>Call Eyewitness News.
We've never seen</i>

473
00:20:35,121 --> 00:20:37,823
anything like this
in New York City before.

474
00:20:40,100 --> 00:20:41,896
Okay. Pick her up.

475
00:20:46,873 --> 00:20:50,434
Next case,
"docket number 64931.

476
00:20:50,434 --> 00:20:51,977
<i>"People v. Angela Brant.</i>

477
00:20:51,977 --> 00:20:54,240
The charge is murder
in the second degree."

478
00:20:54,240 --> 00:20:56,282
Miss Green.
Delightful to see you.

479
00:20:56,282 --> 00:20:58,374
You grace my courtroom
so rarely.

480
00:20:58,374 --> 00:21:00,511
Certainly not by choice,
Your Honor.

481
00:21:01,287 --> 00:21:03,448
Tell your client it's time
to say the magic words.

482
00:21:03,448 --> 00:21:05,883
Not guilty.

483
00:21:05,883 --> 00:21:07,756
Your Honor,
with a case this strong,

484
00:21:07,756 --> 00:21:09,659
the People see
a substantial flight risk.

485
00:21:09,659 --> 00:21:11,321
We request $250,000.

486
00:21:11,321 --> 00:21:13,593
The defendant has custody
of her daughter, Your Honor.

487
00:21:13,593 --> 00:21:15,931
High bail would be
a serious hardship.

488
00:21:15,931 --> 00:21:17,435
She should've thought
of her child

489
00:21:17,435 --> 00:21:19,404
before she became a prostitute.

490
00:21:19,404 --> 00:21:21,064
Did it ever occur to Your Honor

491
00:21:21,064 --> 00:21:22,732
that some women
become prostitutes

492
00:21:22,732 --> 00:21:24,902
in order
to support their children?

493
00:21:25,946 --> 00:21:27,106
How stupid of me.

494
00:21:27,106 --> 00:21:29,808
God forbid you should
get a regular job.

495
00:21:29,808 --> 00:21:31,475
And let me point out,
Miss Green,

496
00:21:31,475 --> 00:21:34,918
for your next visit,
that's a table, not a soapbox.

497
00:21:36,256 --> 00:21:38,986
Bail is $150,000.
Short date.

498
00:21:38,986 --> 00:21:40,525
In honor of motherhood.

499
00:21:41,861 --> 00:21:43,227
Murder two?

500
00:21:43,227 --> 00:21:45,264
You couldn't convict her
of bad manners.

501
00:21:45,264 --> 00:21:47,232
Depraved indifference
to human life.

502
00:21:47,232 --> 00:21:49,768
A scissors in the back,
I think that qualifies.

503
00:21:49,768 --> 00:21:52,464
I had sex with him.
It doesn't prove I killed him.

504
00:21:52,464 --> 00:21:54,837
Miss Brant,
you lied about being there,

505
00:21:54,837 --> 00:21:56,603
you lied about your alibi,

506
00:21:56,603 --> 00:21:58,234
and even your lawyer
will tell you

507
00:21:58,234 --> 00:22:00,870
that if you lie enough,
juries tend to be suspicious.

508
00:22:01,080 --> 00:22:03,481
Oh, I forgot that section
of the penal law.

509
00:22:03,481 --> 00:22:05,518
Twenty-five years for lying.

510
00:22:07,687 --> 00:22:09,814
Did she lie
about her income, too?

511
00:22:09,814 --> 00:22:12,586
Or are you changing
your standards at legal aid?

512
00:22:12,586 --> 00:22:14,923
Oh, no, no, no, no.
She's just flatbacking

513
00:22:14,923 --> 00:22:17,463
until she can liquidate
a major position at IBM.

514
00:22:17,463 --> 00:22:18,827
She's going to pay us back.

515
00:22:18,827 --> 00:22:22,300
Meanwhile. The fingerprints?
Meaningless.

516
00:22:22,536 --> 00:22:24,436
And there's
a little rumor going around

517
00:22:24,436 --> 00:22:26,665
that your DNA match
to my client

518
00:22:26,665 --> 00:22:28,037
is less than perfect.

519
00:22:28,037 --> 00:22:30,042
You shouldn't even
be going to trial.

520
00:22:30,042 --> 00:22:32,476
If we had perfect cases,
we wouldn't need juries.

521
00:22:32,476 --> 00:22:33,638
And less than perfect

522
00:22:33,638 --> 00:22:35,874
certainly doesn't change
my job description.

523
00:22:35,874 --> 00:22:37,939
I'll tell the jury
she's on trial

524
00:22:37,939 --> 00:22:39,918
because prostitutes
are easy targets.

525
00:22:39,918 --> 00:22:42,853
She was used by her johns,
abused by her pimp,

526
00:22:42,853 --> 00:22:44,857
and desperate to
support her daughter.

527
00:22:44,857 --> 00:22:47,359
What am I hearing?
A prostitute's manifesto?

528
00:22:47,359 --> 00:22:49,691
Hookers of the world unite,
kill your oppressors?

529
00:22:49,691 --> 00:22:52,197
I'm not ashamed of who I am.
I don't need his contempt.

530
00:22:52,197 --> 00:22:53,357
Angela, wait.

531
00:22:53,357 --> 00:22:54,525
Look-it.

532
00:22:54,525 --> 00:22:56,159
Julian Decker
was primeval slime

533
00:22:56,159 --> 00:22:57,361
and killing him

534
00:22:57,361 --> 00:22:59,564
was like using penicillin
to kill the clap.

535
00:22:59,564 --> 00:23:01,800
Miss Brant,
I'm not sure your resume

536
00:23:01,800 --> 00:23:03,399
entitles you to that judgment.

537
00:23:03,399 --> 00:23:04,636
Right.

538
00:23:06,947 --> 00:23:08,505
You want to do this, Stone?

539
00:23:08,505 --> 00:23:10,072
I'll clean your clock.

540
00:23:10,072 --> 00:23:13,677
When I'm through, you won't
even care what time it is.

541
00:23:19,392 --> 00:23:21,155
She practically
admitted killing him

542
00:23:21,155 --> 00:23:22,489
and dared us to convict.

543
00:23:22,489 --> 00:23:23,995
And maybe you'll lose.

544
00:23:23,995 --> 00:23:25,588
Who said hookers were dumb?

545
00:23:25,588 --> 00:23:27,326
Dumb enough
not to wash her underwear.

546
00:23:27,326 --> 00:23:29,061
And dumb enough
to leave prints.

547
00:23:29,061 --> 00:23:31,535
You have no motive.
She has an alibi.

548
00:23:31,535 --> 00:23:33,971
Shambala Green says
pity the poor prostitute,

549
00:23:33,971 --> 00:23:35,904
she's supporting her child,

550
00:23:35,904 --> 00:23:38,035
and by the way,
everybody hated him,

551
00:23:38,035 --> 00:23:39,544
my client didn't do it.

552
00:23:39,544 --> 00:23:40,773
You get no conviction.

553
00:23:40,773 --> 00:23:42,940
We can put her there
at the time of the murder.

554
00:23:42,940 --> 00:23:45,007
With our excellent lab results.

555
00:23:45,007 --> 00:23:47,076
What, you think Green
can get this suppressed?

556
00:23:47,076 --> 00:23:49,587
Brant's DNA
is an 80 percent match

557
00:23:49,587 --> 00:23:51,681
to the vaginal secretions
in the pajamas.

558
00:23:51,681 --> 00:23:54,021
Her ex-husband says
he was with her.

559
00:23:54,021 --> 00:23:55,720
Okay, it's not a walk
in the park.

560
00:23:55,720 --> 00:23:58,286
Yes, it is.
You're gonna get mugged.

561
00:23:59,032 --> 00:24:00,624
Break the womars alibi.

562
00:24:00,624 --> 00:24:02,258
Well, what did the husband say?

563
00:24:02,258 --> 00:24:05,099
Delia's restaurant,
in the Village, having dinner.

564
00:24:05,099 --> 00:24:08,072
Let's see if somebody
remembers if they were there.

565
00:24:11,011 --> 00:24:12,638
The cashier remembered Angela.

566
00:24:12,638 --> 00:24:14,269
He saw her picture
in the papers.

567
00:24:14,269 --> 00:24:16,076
God bless the fourth estate.

568
00:24:16,076 --> 00:24:17,480
Does he remember
when they left?

569
00:24:17,480 --> 00:24:19,575
Well, she and her
ex-husband had an argument.

570
00:24:19,575 --> 00:24:21,177
Stalked out
just after they ordered.

571
00:24:21,177 --> 00:24:22,721
Long before 8:00.

572
00:24:23,123 --> 00:24:25,284
He could've been with her
the rest of the night.

573
00:24:25,284 --> 00:24:26,916
Yeah, if they
patched it up quick.

574
00:24:26,916 --> 00:24:28,255
The cashier was at the window.

575
00:24:28,255 --> 00:24:30,296
Says they walked off
in opposite directions.

576
00:24:30,296 --> 00:24:32,728
Let's go find out
what the husband remembers.

577
00:24:34,968 --> 00:24:37,493
Angela always says that.
Like I work on Wall Street.

578
00:24:38,405 --> 00:24:41,397
I'm a loan officer. She likes
the sound of "banker."

579
00:24:42,509 --> 00:24:44,033
Look, uh,

580
00:24:44,244 --> 00:24:47,372
I don't really remember
when we finished dinner.

581
00:24:48,581 --> 00:24:50,071
You don't remember.

582
00:24:50,517 --> 00:24:52,347
The cashier remembers
the shouting started

583
00:25:00,527 --> 00:25:03,519
We had a disagreement, okay?

584
00:25:04,097 --> 00:25:06,395
Angela wanted
more child support.

585
00:25:06,933 --> 00:25:08,457
When you argue
about child support,

586
00:25:08,457 --> 00:25:11,128
do you usually
stalk out of the restaurant?

587
00:25:11,970 --> 00:25:16,431
She said Decker
was gouging her on her fees.

588
00:25:17,677 --> 00:25:19,577
You knew she was a prostitute?

589
00:25:20,113 --> 00:25:22,343
Yeah, I knew about Angela.

590
00:25:22,343 --> 00:25:25,006
But my daughter didn't,
and I didn't want her to.

591
00:25:25,006 --> 00:25:26,109
You also told the police

592
00:25:26,109 --> 00:25:27,847
you were with her
from 6:00 to 8:00.

593
00:25:28,855 --> 00:25:31,050
In court,
that's called perjury.

594
00:25:35,061 --> 00:25:38,553
I got a wife,
two kids besides Tracy.

595
00:25:38,798 --> 00:25:41,358
Does everybody have to be
dragged into this?

596
00:25:41,358 --> 00:25:44,198
Then, let's say,
let's say I wasrt with her.

597
00:25:45,105 --> 00:25:46,970
Can we just leave it at that?

598
00:25:47,841 --> 00:25:50,173
Let's say you'll testify,

599
00:25:50,577 --> 00:25:53,102
or you'll be reading
a contempt citation.

600
00:26:02,322 --> 00:26:03,687
She called.

601
00:26:05,125 --> 00:26:07,616
She was in a panic. She said
the cops had just been there.

602
00:26:07,616 --> 00:26:10,788
She asked me to say
I was with her.

603
00:26:13,066 --> 00:26:14,727
She got into a cab.

604
00:26:15,835 --> 00:26:18,065
Around 7:00 at the latest.

605
00:26:25,145 --> 00:26:26,840
I knew Angela to say hello.

606
00:26:26,840 --> 00:26:29,746
I used to see her
at Juliars. Mr. Decker's.

607
00:26:30,116 --> 00:26:31,777
Did she ever share her feelings

608
00:26:31,777 --> 00:26:33,045
about Mr. Decker with you?

609
00:26:33,045 --> 00:26:35,280
Objection. Calls for hearsay.

610
00:26:35,280 --> 00:26:38,051
Offered for the defendant's
state of mind, Your Honor.

611
00:26:38,051 --> 00:26:40,115
Overruled.
Go on, Miss Can'ter.

612
00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:43,121
Angela said she wanted
to warn me about him.

613
00:26:43,121 --> 00:26:45,096
She was having
some trouble with her bills,

614
00:26:45,096 --> 00:26:46,928
her daughter
is in private school.

615
00:26:46,928 --> 00:26:48,831
Mr. Decker loaned her
some money

616
00:26:48,831 --> 00:26:51,234
and told her that she could
make it up on a shoot.

617
00:26:51,234 --> 00:26:52,532
When she didn't get any work,

618
00:26:52,532 --> 00:26:54,197
he told her
that she could make it up

619
00:26:54,197 --> 00:26:55,400
on her back.

620
00:26:55,809 --> 00:26:58,573
And what was the defendant's
reaction to that?

621
00:26:59,179 --> 00:27:01,773
Well, she was angry.
She told me she felt trapped.

622
00:27:01,773 --> 00:27:04,408
She had to pay him
and she needed more money.

623
00:27:04,408 --> 00:27:06,816
Thank you. Your witness.

624
00:27:12,759 --> 00:27:14,522
When did this happen?

625
00:27:14,522 --> 00:27:17,893
Miss Brant feeling that she'd
been trapped by Mr. Decker?

626
00:27:18,565 --> 00:27:20,931
Uh, six, seven months ago.

627
00:27:20,931 --> 00:27:23,694
So she was angry
seven months ago.

628
00:27:24,237 --> 00:27:27,536
Did you ever hear Miss Brant
threaten to kill Mr. Decker?

629
00:27:27,536 --> 00:27:30,041
No. She never said
a thing like that.

630
00:27:30,443 --> 00:27:33,173
What were your feelings
toward Mr. Decker?

631
00:27:34,080 --> 00:27:37,072
Well,
like a lot of people, I...

632
00:27:41,054 --> 00:27:43,113
Actually I'd say
I hated Julian Decker

633
00:27:43,113 --> 00:27:44,850
and I hope he rots in hell.

634
00:27:46,826 --> 00:27:47,986
Thank you.

635
00:27:48,628 --> 00:27:50,528
No further questions.

636
00:27:52,298 --> 00:27:54,892
I didn't ask Angela
if she'd killed him.

637
00:27:54,892 --> 00:27:56,993
I mean, it was on the phone,

638
00:27:57,604 --> 00:27:59,731
and I really
didn't want to know.

639
00:27:59,731 --> 00:28:01,831
Did Miss Brant tell you
about her conversation

640
00:28:01,831 --> 00:28:03,206
with the police?

641
00:28:04,244 --> 00:28:06,041
She thought they'd call me.

642
00:28:06,041 --> 00:28:08,979
She wanted me to say that
I was with her until 8:00.

643
00:28:08,979 --> 00:28:11,243
She said that
if I told the truth,

644
00:28:11,818 --> 00:28:13,911
we'd all get our names
in the papers.

645
00:28:13,911 --> 00:28:16,182
It'd be bad for me,
my wife, my kids,

646
00:28:16,182 --> 00:28:18,383
our daughter Tracy.
All of us.

647
00:28:19,893 --> 00:28:22,088
Thank you.
No further questions.

648
00:28:29,168 --> 00:28:31,295
You and your ex-wife
hardly spoke, Mr. Brant.

649
00:28:31,295 --> 00:28:32,770
Why was that?

650
00:28:34,908 --> 00:28:36,808
The way Angela lives.

651
00:28:37,977 --> 00:28:40,775
It doesn't fit
the life I have now.

652
00:28:41,348 --> 00:28:43,577
What about your life
six years ago?

653
00:28:44,951 --> 00:28:46,919
We didn't have one.
We were divorced.

654
00:28:46,919 --> 00:28:49,921
I meant the custody suit
over your daughter Tracy.

655
00:28:50,123 --> 00:28:51,613
The suit you lost.

656
00:28:51,613 --> 00:28:53,215
I didn't lose. I withdrew.

657
00:28:53,215 --> 00:28:56,126
You told the police you were
with your ex-wife that night.

658
00:28:56,126 --> 00:28:57,492
Now you say you werert.

659
00:28:57,492 --> 00:29:00,624
Now, in fact, isn't your
entire testimony today a lie?

660
00:29:00,624 --> 00:29:02,600
Werert you with Angela Brant

661
00:29:02,600 --> 00:29:04,261
the night
Julian Decker was killed?

662
00:29:04,261 --> 00:29:06,134
Objection.
Asked and answered.

663
00:29:06,134 --> 00:29:07,604
Sustained.

664
00:29:15,982 --> 00:29:17,973
Would you prefer
to see your ex-wife convicted

665
00:29:17,973 --> 00:29:20,020
if it meant getting custody
of your daughter?

666
00:29:20,020 --> 00:29:21,075
Objection.

667
00:29:21,075 --> 00:29:22,917
In fact, won't you do
just about anything

668
00:29:22,917 --> 00:29:24,320
to get custody
of your daughter?

669
00:29:24,320 --> 00:29:25,755
She's badgering the witness.

670
00:29:25,755 --> 00:29:27,793
Miss Green, that's enough.

671
00:29:29,595 --> 00:29:30,960
Withdrawn.

672
00:29:32,231 --> 00:29:33,823
No further questions.

673
00:29:35,702 --> 00:29:38,831
A custody case? I can't even
think of a better reason to lie.

674
00:29:38,831 --> 00:29:40,497
That was six years ago, Adam.

675
00:29:40,497 --> 00:29:41,972
He has a new wife, new kids.

676
00:29:41,972 --> 00:29:43,235
He wouldn't want custody.

677
00:29:43,235 --> 00:29:45,300
Is that what a jury thinks?

678
00:29:45,745 --> 00:29:47,337
As a reason
to put your wife in jail,

679
00:29:47,337 --> 00:29:50,143
custody of a child
is the ultimate motive.

680
00:29:50,750 --> 00:29:51,876
Who prepped the husband?

681
00:29:51,876 --> 00:29:53,441
I did.
He never mentioned it.

682
00:29:53,441 --> 00:29:55,077
Bring in the rest
of your witnesses.

683
00:29:55,077 --> 00:29:57,715
Go over their testimony.
No more surprises.

684
00:29:58,625 --> 00:29:59,955
Thank you.

685
00:30:04,897 --> 00:30:06,592
Miss Green has
just filed a motion

686
00:30:06,592 --> 00:30:08,600
to suppress your DNA evidence.

687
00:30:09,002 --> 00:30:11,869
Should've been pre-trial.
Judge Baum will ignore it.

688
00:30:11,869 --> 00:30:13,929
No court in the country
rejects DNA.

689
00:30:13,929 --> 00:30:15,770
Until this afternoon.

690
00:30:16,610 --> 00:30:19,169
Judge Lucas, down the hall
from Judge Baum.

691
00:30:19,169 --> 00:30:22,078
Rejected our DNA tests
in the Gelman murder.

692
00:30:22,582 --> 00:30:24,413
You better hope that Judge Baum

693
00:30:24,413 --> 00:30:26,850
doesn't play bridge
with Judge Lucas.

694
00:30:27,086 --> 00:30:29,884
This is absurd. She should've
made this motion weeks ago.

695
00:30:29,884 --> 00:30:32,288
Judge Lucas just
changed the picture.

696
00:30:32,288 --> 00:30:34,622
The DNA sample in the Gelman
case was contaminated.

697
00:30:34,622 --> 00:30:35,753
Ours isn't.

698
00:30:35,753 --> 00:30:37,989
Could we look
at the law, please?

699
00:30:37,989 --> 00:30:40,555
<i>The standard
is Frye v. United States.</i>

700
00:30:40,900 --> 00:30:43,198
"The evidence must
have gained general acceptance

701
00:30:43,198 --> 00:30:45,066
in the field in which
it belongs."

702
00:30:45,066 --> 00:30:47,163
We don't have
general acceptance.

703
00:30:47,163 --> 00:30:49,367
Six months ago the National
Academy of Sciences

704
00:30:49,367 --> 00:30:52,070
said DNA tests
are questionable.

705
00:30:52,070 --> 00:30:54,614
They said the labs were
questionable, not the tests.

706
00:30:54,614 --> 00:30:57,342
Juries treat science like God.

707
00:30:57,342 --> 00:30:59,317
Especially from police experts.

708
00:30:59,317 --> 00:31:01,717
Pardon me,
I do the lecturing here.

709
00:31:02,321 --> 00:31:04,448
You tested
the vaginal secretions

710
00:31:04,448 --> 00:31:06,082
against the defendant's DNA.

711
00:31:06,082 --> 00:31:08,093
You got an 80 percent match.

712
00:31:08,294 --> 00:31:11,457
The sample was fresh,
why isn't the match perfect?

713
00:31:11,898 --> 00:31:13,491
Nothing's perfect.

714
00:31:13,734 --> 00:31:15,895
What is that,
philosophy or law?

715
00:31:17,103 --> 00:31:19,469
This evidence
should be admissible.

716
00:31:19,939 --> 00:31:21,873
But I'm no expert.

717
00:31:21,873 --> 00:31:23,636
The scientists can't agree.

718
00:31:23,636 --> 00:31:25,176
Your Honor,
with all due respect...

719
00:31:25,176 --> 00:31:27,269
I hope you'll respect me
in the morning.

720
00:31:27,269 --> 00:31:30,838
But I'm going to have to rule
the DNA is not admissible.

721
00:31:31,317 --> 00:31:34,253
You want to put the defendant
at the murder scene, Ben,

722
00:31:34,253 --> 00:31:36,083
find another way to do it.

723
00:31:41,194 --> 00:31:42,855
Judge Baum is an idiot.

724
00:31:42,855 --> 00:31:44,897
Stuff envelopes
for the county leader,

725
00:31:44,897 --> 00:31:46,522
you, too, can ascend
to the bench.

726
00:31:46,522 --> 00:31:47,531
No DNA.

727
00:31:47,531 --> 00:31:49,591
If we don't put her there
at the time of the murder,

728
00:31:49,591 --> 00:31:51,136
the jury'll be out
in five minutes.

729
00:31:51,136 --> 00:31:52,399
You'll never get to the jury.

730
00:31:52,399 --> 00:31:53,940
We're looking at a dismissal.

731
00:31:53,940 --> 00:31:55,803
Who saw your victim last?

732
00:31:55,803 --> 00:31:57,433
The modeling agency, Foxx.

733
00:31:57,433 --> 00:31:59,603
Did Decker say anything
to put Angela with him

734
00:31:59,603 --> 00:32:01,408
later that day?
Did we ask?

735
00:32:01,408 --> 00:32:03,676
We werert planning
on calling her as a witness.

736
00:32:03,676 --> 00:32:05,546
Let's ask her. Personally.

737
00:32:07,120 --> 00:32:10,146
If he was seeing Angela,
he wouldn't have told me.

738
00:32:10,924 --> 00:32:12,824
Frankly, I'm surprised.

739
00:32:13,260 --> 00:32:15,352
She's a little old for Julian.

740
00:32:16,662 --> 00:32:18,527
Sounds like you almost
feel sorry for her.

741
00:32:18,527 --> 00:32:20,031
I almost do.

742
00:32:20,031 --> 00:32:21,726
I'm sorrier for her daughter.

743
00:32:21,726 --> 00:32:24,031
She wants to be
just like Angela.

744
00:32:24,031 --> 00:32:26,367
Brought in her own portfolio,
taken by Decker.

745
00:32:26,367 --> 00:32:27,906
She doesn't have
her mother's legs.

746
00:32:27,906 --> 00:32:29,533
Podgy. Bad legs.

747
00:32:29,533 --> 00:32:30,907
The daughter?

748
00:32:30,907 --> 00:32:32,707
She had her pictures
taken by Decker?

749
00:32:32,707 --> 00:32:35,303
Tracy said her mother
encouraged her.

750
00:32:36,082 --> 00:32:37,913
A little hard to believe.

751
00:32:38,951 --> 00:32:40,384
Who would know?

752
00:32:41,220 --> 00:32:43,745
Tracy's friends, maybe.
Her school, Miss Harker's.

753
00:32:43,745 --> 00:32:45,120
I went there myself.

754
00:32:45,120 --> 00:32:48,285
On career day, six girls
handed me their portfolios.

755
00:32:49,329 --> 00:32:51,297
How much does
something like that cost?

756
00:32:51,297 --> 00:32:54,299
$1,500 minimum.
Even from Decker.

757
00:32:55,635 --> 00:32:58,160
It makes one wonder
why he did Tracy's.

758
00:32:58,437 --> 00:33:01,235
Tracy always bragged
about her older boyfriend.

759
00:33:01,235 --> 00:33:04,970
The fashion photographer.
Tracy was gonna be a star.

760
00:33:04,970 --> 00:33:07,707
The next Cindy Crawford.
Just like her mother.

761
00:33:07,707 --> 00:33:09,681
Tracy's pretty,
she could be a model.

762
00:33:09,681 --> 00:33:11,377
If they shot her
from the waist up.

763
00:33:11,377 --> 00:33:12,917
Those legs!

764
00:33:12,917 --> 00:33:14,475
She could do fingernail ads.

765
00:33:15,821 --> 00:33:18,449
If a big fashion photographer
came on to me,

766
00:33:18,449 --> 00:33:20,116
I'd be interested.

767
00:33:20,660 --> 00:33:23,060
Did Tracy's mother know
about this boyfriend?

768
00:33:23,060 --> 00:33:25,723
They had a fight on
the sidewalk, right outside.

769
00:33:25,723 --> 00:33:27,926
Mrs. Brant
found her portfolio.

770
00:33:27,926 --> 00:33:30,731
Mrs. Brant thought
something else was going on.

771
00:33:31,938 --> 00:33:33,337
Do you know what she meant?

772
00:33:33,337 --> 00:33:34,896
They were in love.

773
00:33:35,241 --> 00:33:37,436
And we're 15, not 12.

774
00:33:39,111 --> 00:33:41,102
The mother knew about
Decker and her daughter?

775
00:33:41,102 --> 00:33:42,272
Yeah, it's motive.

776
00:33:42,272 --> 00:33:44,441
But it doesn't put Brant
in the loft that night.

777
00:33:44,441 --> 00:33:45,985
The kids never
heard Decker's name

778
00:33:45,985 --> 00:33:48,419
or saw the daughter with him.
It's all hearsay.

779
00:33:48,419 --> 00:33:50,512
What's the problem?
Put the daughter on the stand.

780
00:33:50,512 --> 00:33:51,989
Whatever she knows, she'll lie.

781
00:33:51,989 --> 00:33:54,390
It gives us leverage on Brant,
might get us a deal.

782
00:33:54,390 --> 00:33:56,758
So get a subpoena
for the daughter to testify.

783
00:33:58,998 --> 00:34:01,057
Her testimony isn't relevant.

784
00:34:01,057 --> 00:34:02,464
You'll never get it in.

785
00:34:02,464 --> 00:34:04,629
Last time I looked,
motive was relevant.

786
00:34:04,629 --> 00:34:05,797
This is a homicide,

787
00:34:05,797 --> 00:34:08,033
even Judge Baum
won't keep her off the stand.

788
00:34:08,033 --> 00:34:10,302
Do you know what this will do
to my daughter?

789
00:34:10,302 --> 00:34:12,435
I don't think it's a lot worse
than what you did.

790
00:34:12,435 --> 00:34:14,308
Man two, three to nine.

791
00:34:14,308 --> 00:34:15,608
What does that mean?

792
00:34:15,608 --> 00:34:17,308
It means they're desperate.

793
00:34:17,308 --> 00:34:20,250
Miss Green is wrong. It means
three to nine years in jail.

794
00:34:20,250 --> 00:34:21,513
We're not interested.

795
00:34:21,513 --> 00:34:22,576
Maybe I am.

796
00:34:22,576 --> 00:34:24,055
Come on, Angela, let's go.

797
00:34:24,055 --> 00:34:26,752
It's not won'th it.
I've ruined my life,

798
00:34:26,752 --> 00:34:28,987
I don't want
to ruin Tracy's, too.

799
00:34:31,230 --> 00:34:32,424
Angela, trust me,

800
00:34:32,424 --> 00:34:34,432
Tracy will never
take the stand.

801
00:34:34,432 --> 00:34:35,865
You're misleading your client.

802
00:34:35,865 --> 00:34:37,402
You're misleading yourself.

803
00:34:37,402 --> 00:34:39,404
I'll see you at the hearing.

804
00:34:44,344 --> 00:34:46,835
This meets no standard
of relevance.

805
00:34:46,835 --> 00:34:48,573
It's a fishing expedition.

806
00:34:48,573 --> 00:34:49,945
The defendant was angry

807
00:34:49,945 --> 00:34:52,177
about her daughter's
involvement with the victim.

808
00:34:52,177 --> 00:34:53,240
It goes to motive.

809
00:34:53,240 --> 00:34:54,718
Motive? It's a theory.

810
00:34:54,718 --> 00:34:56,880
Last week she killed him
over money.

811
00:34:56,880 --> 00:34:58,082
Now it's her daughter.

812
00:34:58,082 --> 00:35:00,318
Next week it'll be
whatever new motive

813
00:35:00,318 --> 00:35:02,954
you dream up over lunch
at the University Club.

814
00:35:02,954 --> 00:35:04,622
Ben, the standard

815
00:35:04,622 --> 00:35:07,427
is whether the testimony
is relevant or collateral.

816
00:35:07,427 --> 00:35:09,559
You don't know if it's
relevant and neither do I.

817
00:35:09,559 --> 00:35:10,659
Thank you.

818
00:35:10,659 --> 00:35:12,704
Don't buy me an apple yet,
Miss Green.

819
00:35:12,704 --> 00:35:14,569
I'll question the girl
in chambers

820
00:35:14,569 --> 00:35:16,505
and then make a decision.

821
00:35:16,505 --> 00:35:19,237
Relevance aside, Your Honor,
the girl's in trauma.

822
00:35:19,237 --> 00:35:21,144
She's seeing a psychiatrist.

823
00:35:21,144 --> 00:35:22,875
An interview
at this point is...

824
00:35:22,875 --> 00:35:25,509
Fine, I'll order
a psychiatric exam.

825
00:35:25,509 --> 00:35:27,279
By my psychiatrist.

826
00:35:27,279 --> 00:35:28,752
With me present.

827
00:35:28,752 --> 00:35:30,379
For you, Miss Green, anything.

828
00:35:30,379 --> 00:35:32,583
This court orders
a psychiatric exam

829
00:35:32,583 --> 00:35:36,185
of Tracy Brant
with defense counsel present.

830
00:35:39,532 --> 00:35:41,501
<i>I was with my mom.</i>

831
00:35:41,501 --> 00:35:43,536
<i>It... It was
a catalogue shoot.</i>

832
00:35:43,937 --> 00:35:45,733
<i>Julian saw me,
he liked me.</i>

833
00:35:45,733 --> 00:35:48,968
<i>He said I had great coloring,
better than Mom's.</i>

834
00:35:49,942 --> 00:35:52,240
<i>I had a chance
even if she didn't.</i>

835
00:35:52,912 --> 00:35:53,970
<i>Did your mom know</i>

836
00:35:53,970 --> 00:35:55,775
<i>that you were sleeping
with Julian?</i>

837
00:35:59,419 --> 00:36:01,580
She found
some pictures he took.

838
00:36:03,223 --> 00:36:05,156
I didn't have any clothes on.

839
00:36:06,158 --> 00:36:07,785
What did your mom do?

840
00:36:09,595 --> 00:36:12,029
She told me
not to see him again.

841
00:36:12,798 --> 00:36:15,198
She said I'd end up
as a prostitute.

842
00:36:15,601 --> 00:36:17,592
She had no right to say that.

843
00:36:18,739 --> 00:36:20,900
You continued to see Julian.

844
00:36:23,310 --> 00:36:24,606
I had to.

845
00:36:27,012 --> 00:36:28,445
I needed him.

846
00:36:30,850 --> 00:36:33,648
Was Julian the first man
you'd had sex with?

847
00:36:37,290 --> 00:36:39,121
He was experienced.

848
00:36:40,994 --> 00:36:42,655
He made me feel safe.

849
00:36:45,798 --> 00:36:48,130
Do you think your mom
killed him because of you?

850
00:36:48,130 --> 00:36:49,997
Out of bounds, Doc.

851
00:36:50,469 --> 00:36:52,198
Don't answer that, Tracy.

852
00:36:55,141 --> 00:36:58,373
Tracy, how did your mom
feel about you being a model?

853
00:37:00,747 --> 00:37:02,805
She said it was a bad life.

854
00:37:04,150 --> 00:37:06,277
But it was just
too hard for her.

855
00:37:06,585 --> 00:37:09,577
She didn't want it bad enough.
She wasrt dedicated.

856
00:37:11,757 --> 00:37:13,054
But I am.

857
00:37:17,063 --> 00:37:19,031
It's what everybody wants.

858
00:37:19,800 --> 00:37:21,165
My friends.

859
00:37:23,702 --> 00:37:26,193
To have everybody think
you're beautiful.

860
00:37:27,706 --> 00:37:29,469
Fifteen years old,

861
00:37:29,469 --> 00:37:31,373
she seemed fairly
self-possessed to me.

862
00:37:31,373 --> 00:37:33,344
Too self-possessed.
Did you hear her?

863
00:37:33,344 --> 00:37:34,778
A scared child

864
00:37:34,778 --> 00:37:36,179
afraid of her mother
one minute.

865
00:37:36,179 --> 00:37:38,581
A tough kid, contemptuous
of her mother the next.

866
00:37:38,581 --> 00:37:40,882
You saying
she shouldn't testify?

867
00:37:40,882 --> 00:37:43,478
There's something missing
with this girl.

868
00:37:44,023 --> 00:37:46,548
Tracy Brant's life
was bound up in this man.

869
00:37:46,548 --> 00:37:49,321
Everything she wanted, Julian
Decker would get it for her.

870
00:37:49,321 --> 00:37:51,761
If her mother killed him,
she should be enraged.

871
00:37:51,761 --> 00:37:53,026
She's not.

872
00:37:53,026 --> 00:37:54,396
It's strange.

873
00:37:54,396 --> 00:37:57,028
You know what's stranger?
She dared us to convict.

874
00:37:57,028 --> 00:37:58,832
She almost
admitted killing him.

875
00:37:58,832 --> 00:38:01,532
Our case gets weaker,
she wants to plead.

876
00:38:02,041 --> 00:38:04,976
Some mothers will do anything
to protect a child.

877
00:38:07,046 --> 00:38:09,207
You're saying the daughter
killed Decker?

878
00:38:09,207 --> 00:38:11,306
I'm saying it's a possibility.

879
00:38:11,918 --> 00:38:13,681
The DNA was a match
with Angela.

880
00:38:13,681 --> 00:38:14,981
80 percent.

881
00:38:14,981 --> 00:38:18,081
And where does a daughter
get her DNA from, anyway?

882
00:38:18,081 --> 00:38:20,318
The cops
searched the apartment.

883
00:38:20,926 --> 00:38:22,621
Why was the underwear
still there,

884
00:38:22,621 --> 00:38:24,595
why didn't Brant get rid of it?

885
00:38:24,930 --> 00:38:27,455
Because she didn't know it
mattered until they found it.

886
00:38:29,668 --> 00:38:32,229
Let's get a blood sample
on the daughter.

887
00:38:32,229 --> 00:38:35,536
Did anybody even
consider the possibility?

888
00:38:35,536 --> 00:38:37,304
Adam, we all made
the same assumption.

889
00:38:37,304 --> 00:38:39,276
We thought the underwear
was the mother's.

890
00:38:39,276 --> 00:38:42,576
When did we turn this office
over to the Marx Brothers?

891
00:38:43,415 --> 00:38:47,044
First, nobody checks out
this husband's custody suit

892
00:38:47,044 --> 00:38:48,643
and now it turns out

893
00:38:48,643 --> 00:38:51,190
that nobody checked
whose bloomers were whose.

894
00:38:51,190 --> 00:38:53,226
You're going for a record here.

895
00:38:53,226 --> 00:38:54,920
So what's the theory?

896
00:38:55,428 --> 00:38:57,623
Mother walks in,
finds the daughter,

897
00:38:57,623 --> 00:38:59,823
stabs Decker
in front of her. That it?

898
00:38:59,823 --> 00:39:02,129
Liz thinks it's possible
that the daughter did it.

899
00:39:02,129 --> 00:39:03,259
Where was the mother?

900
00:39:03,259 --> 00:39:04,893
I think she was
with the ex-husband.

901
00:39:04,893 --> 00:39:07,632
The husband testified
she wasrt with him.

902
00:39:07,632 --> 00:39:09,971
Cerreta and Logan
asked Brant where she was.

903
00:39:09,971 --> 00:39:11,943
She didn't know
the daughter killed Decker.

904
00:39:11,943 --> 00:39:13,138
She tells the truth.

905
00:39:13,138 --> 00:39:15,044
Says she was with her ex.
He backs her up.

906
00:39:15,044 --> 00:39:16,343
Not in court.

907
00:39:16,343 --> 00:39:17,439
But try this.

908
00:39:17,439 --> 00:39:19,677
He changed his mind
after she told him to.

909
00:39:19,677 --> 00:39:21,447
She wanted to look guilty.

910
00:39:21,447 --> 00:39:23,078
He tells the truth
the first time,

911
00:39:23,078 --> 00:39:24,884
then lies on the stand.

912
00:39:26,792 --> 00:39:28,158
Both lying.

913
00:39:28,528 --> 00:39:30,962
Protecting the kid. Good.

914
00:39:33,500 --> 00:39:35,525
DNA match on the daughter.

915
00:39:35,525 --> 00:39:37,865
Irrefutable. 100 percent.

916
00:39:42,508 --> 00:39:43,634
Okay.

917
00:39:44,543 --> 00:39:46,568
Only way this works now

918
00:39:47,147 --> 00:39:48,739
is to put husband
and wife together

919
00:39:48,739 --> 00:39:50,180
at the time of the killing.

920
00:39:50,180 --> 00:39:51,911
Can you prove that?

921
00:39:55,288 --> 00:39:57,482
It's called perjury,
Mr. Brant.

922
00:39:57,482 --> 00:39:59,751
You might want
to call your lawyer.

923
00:40:00,025 --> 00:40:01,151
You can't prove anything.

924
00:40:01,151 --> 00:40:02,750
You don't know
where Angela was.

925
00:40:02,750 --> 00:40:04,295
I think we do.

926
00:40:04,295 --> 00:40:06,696
We also know
where your daughter was.

927
00:40:08,435 --> 00:40:11,893
We're going to indict Tracy
for murder, Mr. Brant.

928
00:40:13,006 --> 00:40:14,268
She'll be arraigned,

929
00:40:14,268 --> 00:40:16,433
she'll be surrounded
by reporters.

930
00:40:17,276 --> 00:40:19,437
Unless you'd like
to make this easier.

931
00:40:19,437 --> 00:40:20,910
Oh, you mean easier for you.

932
00:40:20,910 --> 00:40:22,777
For your daughter.

933
00:40:22,777 --> 00:40:24,372
And if there's
any hope of leniency,

934
00:40:24,372 --> 00:40:26,009
you'd better talk now.

935
00:40:35,060 --> 00:40:36,288
Oh, God.

936
00:40:41,700 --> 00:40:43,691
I did what Angela told me.

937
00:40:45,438 --> 00:40:47,167
I met her for dinner.

938
00:40:47,474 --> 00:40:49,374
She knew about Tracy
and Decker.

939
00:40:49,374 --> 00:40:51,740
She wanted my help.
I didn't know what to do.

940
00:40:51,740 --> 00:40:53,801
How late were you together?

941
00:40:55,147 --> 00:40:58,275
She walked away, she was mad.

942
00:40:59,418 --> 00:41:02,251
I started to leave.
I felt guilty, I went back.

943
00:41:03,490 --> 00:41:06,425
We went to the bar
on the corner.

944
00:41:07,594 --> 00:41:09,289
We were there till 9:00.

945
00:41:09,729 --> 00:41:12,027
So you told the police
the truth.

946
00:41:16,802 --> 00:41:18,360
Yeah. Angela called

947
00:41:18,360 --> 00:41:20,268
after they searched
her apartment.

948
00:41:21,507 --> 00:41:24,306
She said if they asked again,
I should tell them I lied.

949
00:41:24,911 --> 00:41:26,776
That I wasrt with her.

950
00:41:28,114 --> 00:41:30,105
She was willing to go to jail.

951
00:41:31,418 --> 00:41:33,180
Anything to save Tracy.

952
00:41:34,420 --> 00:41:36,911
You don't have a case
on either of them.

953
00:41:36,911 --> 00:41:38,513
We're dismissing
on Mrs. Brant

954
00:41:38,513 --> 00:41:40,251
and arresting her daughter.

955
00:41:40,251 --> 00:41:41,953
You can't prove Tracy did it.

956
00:41:41,953 --> 00:41:44,929
With what your husband told us
this morning, I think we can.

957
00:41:50,837 --> 00:41:52,929
She didn't understand

958
00:41:54,039 --> 00:41:56,269
that you couldn't
have everything.

959
00:41:58,143 --> 00:42:00,043
That life wasrt like that.

960
00:42:02,549 --> 00:42:04,517
How do you tell a child?

961
00:42:11,056 --> 00:42:13,718
I have no authority
to deal for Tracy, Ben.

962
00:42:14,426 --> 00:42:17,327
But I know that the girl's
had a lot of problems.

963
00:42:17,730 --> 00:42:19,790
I understand,
but she also killed a man.

964
00:42:19,790 --> 00:42:21,231
When you know
what he did to her,

965
00:42:21,231 --> 00:42:23,235
you won't be thinking 25 years.

966
00:42:24,871 --> 00:42:26,736
Sentence her as a juvenile.

967
00:42:29,908 --> 00:42:31,239
Convince me.

968
00:42:32,845 --> 00:42:34,107
You have a daughter, Ben.

969
00:42:34,107 --> 00:42:36,704
You know 15 is not an adult.

970
00:42:36,704 --> 00:42:38,614
She's not responsible.

971
00:42:40,920 --> 00:42:42,911
Would you excuse us, please?

972
00:42:52,931 --> 00:42:54,125
You knew.

973
00:42:54,600 --> 00:42:56,727
She never told me,
I never asked.

974
00:42:57,771 --> 00:42:59,636
Until she wanted a deal.

975
00:42:59,906 --> 00:43:02,204
I knew she had to be
either stupid or a martyr.

976
00:43:02,204 --> 00:43:04,004
She was not stupid.

977
00:43:06,412 --> 00:43:08,572
I'll get the case assignment.

978
00:43:08,981 --> 00:43:10,448
Talk to the girl.

979
00:43:15,954 --> 00:43:17,752
I know I'm pretty.

980
00:43:17,752 --> 00:43:19,917
I'm just not
that good with boys.

981
00:43:20,493 --> 00:43:22,188
Oh, they're gross.

982
00:43:22,395 --> 00:43:24,625
Just never wanted
to go out with them.

983
00:43:25,932 --> 00:43:26,921
Um...

984
00:43:27,966 --> 00:43:30,264
but Julian took me to clubs.

985
00:43:31,570 --> 00:43:33,936
I mean, I went to
the opening of Arena.

986
00:43:34,907 --> 00:43:36,842
He introduced me to everybody.

987
00:43:39,045 --> 00:43:40,273
Tracy,

988
00:43:41,281 --> 00:43:44,478
tell Mr. Stone
what Julian promised you.

989
00:43:47,953 --> 00:43:49,614
He was grooming me.

990
00:43:52,658 --> 00:43:54,388
He said
we'd always be together,

991
00:43:54,388 --> 00:43:56,792
and I was going
to be a big model.

992
00:44:02,035 --> 00:44:03,730
What happened
that night, Tracy?

993
00:44:09,007 --> 00:44:10,406
We made love.

994
00:44:13,446 --> 00:44:16,938
And then he told me to leave
and never come back again.

995
00:44:20,286 --> 00:44:22,083
It was my mom's fault.

996
00:44:25,390 --> 00:44:27,017
She told him

997
00:44:28,694 --> 00:44:31,128
that if he didn't stop
seeing me,

998
00:44:34,067 --> 00:44:35,500
she wouldn't...

999
00:44:38,872 --> 00:44:41,705
Angela said she'd quit
working for him.

1000
00:44:42,842 --> 00:44:45,332
She threatened
to have him arrested.

1001
00:44:47,913 --> 00:44:49,574
Decker told Tracy

1002
00:44:51,083 --> 00:44:53,450
that her mother
was won'th more to him

1003
00:44:53,450 --> 00:44:54,918
as a prostitute,

1004
00:44:55,922 --> 00:44:58,254
than she ever
would be as a model.

1005
00:45:04,162 --> 00:45:05,823
I didn't mean to do it.

1006
00:45:10,102 --> 00:45:13,231
After what he said about Mom,
he made fun of me.

1007
00:45:15,608 --> 00:45:17,872
He said I wasrt pretty enough.

1008
00:45:20,747 --> 00:45:22,646
My legs were too heavy.

1009
00:45:26,952 --> 00:45:29,786
He just turned his back on me.

1010
00:45:31,190 --> 00:45:34,057
He just walked away.

1011
00:45:51,110 --> 00:45:54,944
Three years. Spofford.
With treatment.

1012
00:46:00,920 --> 00:46:02,409
15 years old.

1013
00:46:02,409 --> 00:46:04,887
She thought if her picture
was on a magazine cover,

1014
00:46:04,887 --> 00:46:06,356
her life would be perfect.

1015
00:46:06,356 --> 00:46:09,054
Aborigines think
if you take their picture,

1016
00:46:09,054 --> 00:46:10,561
you capture their soul.

1017
00:46:10,561 --> 00:46:12,291
Maybe they're right.
