<i>NARRATOR:
In the criminal justice system</i>

2
00:00:08,158 --> 00:00:12,026
<i>the people are represented by two
separate yet equally important groups,</i>

3
00:00:11,928 --> 00:00:13,759
<i>the police
who investigate crime</i>

4
00:00:13,750 --> 00:00:16,548
<i>and the district attorneys
who prosecute the offenders.</i>

5
00:00:16,498 --> 00:00:18,466
<i>These are their stories.</i>

6
00:00:19,407 --> 00:00:21,841
MAUREEN: A lot of young
men like you in my work.

7
00:00:21,803 --> 00:00:25,603
Boys everyone gave up on.
But they turned their lives around.

8
00:00:25,766 --> 00:00:30,135
So can you, Fernando. I can help you.
I want to help you.

9
00:00:30,017 --> 00:00:31,006
SALVA: Get out of the car.

10
00:00:31,039 --> 00:00:32,529
No, wait.
Listen to me.

11
00:00:32,541 --> 00:00:38,410
Think of all the people you're going to hurt.
Your family. You'll ruin their lives.

12
00:00:38,229 --> 00:00:40,026
SALVA: Come on.
Come on, move.

13
00:00:40,018 --> 00:00:41,042
No, please.

14
00:00:41,072 --> 00:00:43,063
Look at the picture.
Look at my little babies. Come on.

15
00:00:43,054 --> 00:00:44,988
I love them so much.
I love their father.

16
00:00:44,972 --> 00:00:46,837
Please, don't take me away from him.
Come on!

17
00:00:46,825 --> 00:00:48,816
No! No, I don't want to die!
Let go!

18
00:00:48,806 --> 00:00:49,830
No, stop!

19
00:00:49,861 --> 00:00:51,089
Shut up! Don't talk.
Oh, please!

20
00:00:51,108 --> 00:00:52,097
For the love of God,
don't kill me!

21
00:00:52,130 --> 00:00:54,997
Let go! Turn around.

22
00:00:54,943 --> 00:00:57,639
Please, just stop and think, Fernando.
You're making a terrible mistake.

23
00:00:57,595 --> 00:00:58,584
Just stop and think.

24
00:00:58,618 --> 00:01:01,178
Leave that here.
Turn around!

25
00:01:01,143 --> 00:01:02,940
Move!
"Hail Mary,

26
00:01:02,932 --> 00:01:04,559
"full of grace, the Lord is with thee.
Come on, move!

27
00:01:04,562 --> 00:01:06,257
"Blessed art thou among women, Shut up!
Don't talk!

28
00:01:06,255 --> 00:01:07,449
"Blessed is the fruit
of thy womb, Jesus."

29
00:01:07,470 --> 00:01:08,903
Turn around.
Turn around!

30
00:01:11,593 --> 00:01:15,495
Victim is a female, white, late 30s.
No ID, no purse.

31
00:01:15,395 --> 00:01:17,920
The guy in the Armani found her.
He owns the lot.

32
00:01:17,888 --> 00:01:20,516
He wants us out of here before
the TV cameras show up.

33
00:01:20,476 --> 00:01:22,103
And what's that
bivouac down there?

34
00:01:22,139 --> 00:01:26,200
Bunch of homeless. I got a couple
of people canvassing for witnesses.

35
00:01:26,101 --> 00:01:28,296
A suspect would be nice, too.

36
00:01:28,275 --> 00:01:30,300
Hey, Kenny,
what are we looking at?

37
00:01:30,288 --> 00:01:34,657
Posterior cranial fracture.
Sometime between 9:00 and 12:00 last night.

38
00:01:35,209 --> 00:01:36,301
A dump job?

39
00:01:36,327 --> 00:01:38,056
No, Lennie. Look at
the dirt on her shoes.

40
00:01:38,052 --> 00:01:42,148
She walked here. Still got her
wedding band, watch, earrings.

41
00:01:42,047 --> 00:01:43,139
Could be a sex thing.

42
00:01:43,166 --> 00:01:44,531
No evidence of that.

43
00:01:44,540 --> 00:01:46,371
The skirt was pulled down
like this to cover her legs?

44
00:01:46,361 --> 00:01:49,159
Mmm-hmm.
And the sweater was over her face.

45
00:01:49,110 --> 00:01:52,045
Maybe the perp didn't
want her catching cold.

46
00:01:51,986 --> 00:01:55,080
Yeah, right. I'll get out
a warrant for my mother.

47
00:01:55,342 --> 00:01:57,333
Look at the inscription.

48
00:01:58,506 --> 00:02:02,169
"October 3rd,
1982. Forever."

49
00:02:02,660 --> 00:02:04,093
Guess again.

50
00:02:54,846 --> 00:02:57,815
I kept telling him, don't
jeopardize our friendship.

51
00:02:57,755 --> 00:03:02,988
Besides, he's not my type. Now, Mr.
Giuliani, that's a handsome man.

52
00:03:02,836 --> 00:03:04,861
Well, I don't know if we
can help you there, Sally.

53
00:03:04,849 --> 00:03:06,214
The Mayor is married.

54
00:03:06,223 --> 00:03:09,624
Oh, that's okay,
I'm not jealous.

55
00:03:09,547 --> 00:03:11,879
So, getting back to last night.

56
00:03:13,094 --> 00:03:15,585
I'm pushing my wagon
down the road

57
00:03:15,555 --> 00:03:20,458
and out of nowhere, Enzo Ferrari comes at me.
Nearly runs me over.

58
00:03:20,316 --> 00:03:22,045
Do you remember what
kind of car it was?

59
00:03:22,042 --> 00:03:26,274
One of them sushi rolls.
Put a nice ding in my wagon.

60
00:03:26,165 --> 00:03:31,000
You see that tan paint?
Got to get in touch with his insurance company.

61
00:03:31,342 --> 00:03:33,366
BRISCOE: Did you get
a look at him?

62
00:03:33,354 --> 00:03:38,986
Too dark, but I saw his plate.
New York, with an M and a 2.

63
00:03:40,321 --> 00:03:43,256
Tell CSU we're gonna
need them down here.

64
00:03:43,197 --> 00:03:46,826
Sally, we're gonna lift some of
that tan paint off of your wagon.

65
00:03:46,745 --> 00:03:49,908
Sure, but can you do
something about those dings?

66
00:03:50,803 --> 00:03:54,330
Textbook whack upside the head.
Didn't kill her right away, though.

67
00:03:54,478 --> 00:03:55,536
Took her another 20 minutes.

68
00:03:55,565 --> 00:03:57,226
So, she bled out.

69
00:03:57,227 --> 00:03:59,661
And you said he was
just a pretty face.

70
00:04:00,966 --> 00:04:05,426
Scalp lacerations suggest a narrow weapon.
A pipe or a steel bar.

71
00:04:05,312 --> 00:04:08,008
No other injuries.
No sexual trauma.

72
00:04:07,964 --> 00:04:10,330
What about recreational trauma?

73
00:04:10,745 --> 00:04:11,734
Mmm.

74
00:04:12,279 --> 00:04:17,080
No needle marks. Drug panel is negative.
She was clean, well groomed.

75
00:04:17,808 --> 00:04:20,003
She's had kids.
More than one.

76
00:04:19,981 --> 00:04:23,075
Definitely not one of your
12th Avenue regulars.

77
00:04:23,177 --> 00:04:24,667
Yeah. No better off,
though.

78
00:04:24,934 --> 00:04:26,231
Thanks.
Mmm-hmm.

79
00:04:27,491 --> 00:04:31,450
The paint on the shopping cart gives
us a late-model Nissan sedan.

80
00:04:31,358 --> 00:04:33,348
DMV is running
the partial plate.

81
00:04:33,338 --> 00:04:35,306
CURTIS: We spent half the day
at Missing Persons.

82
00:04:35,288 --> 00:04:37,347
You wouldn't believe how many
wives, girlfriends and daughters

83
00:04:37,333 --> 00:04:38,561
go missing in this city.

84
00:04:38,579 --> 00:04:40,604
The victim's face
and legs were covered?

85
00:04:40,593 --> 00:04:43,858
Postmortem. I've never seen that.
Usually perps take clothes off.

86
00:04:43,788 --> 00:04:46,484
But this one felt bad about
leaving her out in the open.

87
00:04:46,441 --> 00:04:48,966
Someone close.
A husband or a boyfriend.

88
00:04:48,933 --> 00:04:51,993
Yeah, who runs over little
old ladies in his Nissan.

89
00:04:51,938 --> 00:04:53,496
I'll go check with DMV.

90
00:04:57,019 --> 00:04:58,543
Close the door.

91
00:05:03,954 --> 00:05:05,012
How is he?

92
00:05:05,999 --> 00:05:07,023
Sharp as a tack.

93
00:05:07,053 --> 00:05:08,452
He going to his meetings?

94
00:05:08,459 --> 00:05:09,448
(CHUCKLING) Ask him.

95
00:05:09,482 --> 00:05:10,972
I did. Now
I'm asking you.

96
00:05:10,984 --> 00:05:13,009
He says he is.
I don't get a note from his sponsor.

97
00:05:12,997 --> 00:05:16,626
If there's going to be a problem,
I want to know about it.

98
00:05:26,292 --> 00:05:27,657
So, I pass?

99
00:05:28,114 --> 00:05:29,376
It's her job to ask.

100
00:05:29,392 --> 00:05:31,120
Yeah. It's my own
fault anyway.

101
00:05:31,117 --> 00:05:32,880
Come on, Lennie.
Nobody is perfect.

102
00:05:32,874 --> 00:05:33,966
Nobody?

103
00:05:35,112 --> 00:05:36,841
DMV just faxed this.

104
00:05:36,837 --> 00:05:39,806
Twenty-seven Nissans with an
M and a 2 on their plates.

105
00:05:39,745 --> 00:05:42,839
Check out the '95 Maxima
in the middle of the page.

106
00:05:42,781 --> 00:05:46,478
Registered to lan Rankin of Queens.
Friend of yours?

107
00:05:46,393 --> 00:05:47,985
I looked at GTA reports.

108
00:05:47,991 --> 00:05:49,424
The car was stolen last night,

109
00:05:49,428 --> 00:05:51,259
and Mr. Rankin made the
report this morning.

110
00:05:51,250 --> 00:05:52,649
Thanks, Gia.
Sure.

111
00:05:56,907 --> 00:05:59,603
BRISCOE: Hi. Is
lan Rankin at home?

112
00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:02,495
He'll be here this afternoon.
He's flying back from California.

113
00:06:02,436 --> 00:06:03,801
He reported a car stolen?

114
00:06:03,809 --> 00:06:06,607
No, I did. I'm their babysitter.
You found it?

115
00:06:06,558 --> 00:06:08,458
No. What about Mrs.
Rankin?

116
00:06:08,444 --> 00:06:11,242
She didn't come home last night.
She teaches night school.

117
00:06:11,192 --> 00:06:13,786
I called Mr. Rankin in California.
He told me to call the police.

118
00:06:13,748 --> 00:06:15,113
But they said she
wasn't a missing person

119
00:06:15,123 --> 00:06:16,112
until she's been
missing for a day.

120
00:06:16,146 --> 00:06:17,579
Okay, wait, wait.
Slow down.

121
00:06:17,583 --> 00:06:19,312
What's your name?
Susan. Susan Bayer.

122
00:06:19,309 --> 00:06:22,642
So, I called Mr. Rankin back.
He told me to report the car stolen.

123
00:06:22,569 --> 00:06:24,901
He said the police pay more
attention to cars than people.

124
00:06:24,870 --> 00:06:27,202
What does Mrs. Rankin
look like?

125
00:06:27,873 --> 00:06:31,808
Uh, my height, light
brown hair, hazel eyes.

126
00:06:32,539 --> 00:06:33,699
Okay, Susan, we're going
to have to ask you

127
00:06:33,722 --> 00:06:35,622
to come down to the station
if you wouldn't mind, okay?

128
00:06:35,607 --> 00:06:37,438
What about the kids?
I can't leave them here alone.

129
00:06:37,428 --> 00:06:39,453
And Mr. Rankin will...
We'll take the kids with us,

130
00:06:39,441 --> 00:06:42,638
and we'll send somebody out to the
airport to pick Mr. Rankin up. Okay?

131
00:06:42,573 --> 00:06:45,906
How about it, kid?
You want to ride around in a police car?

132
00:06:57,434 --> 00:06:58,731
(GASPING) It's her.

133
00:07:03,378 --> 00:07:07,075
She called me during
her break, around 8:30.

134
00:07:06,989 --> 00:07:11,983
She said she was going to stop for
gas and then come right home.

135
00:07:11,847 --> 00:07:13,906
Was she planning to
stop anywhere else?

136
00:07:15,075 --> 00:07:16,633
She's always home
by 11:00.

137
00:07:16,641 --> 00:07:19,633
Even when Mr. Rankin is
out of town on business?

138
00:07:19,581 --> 00:07:23,847
These people aren't like that.
They love each other.

139
00:07:24,694 --> 00:07:26,252
They really do.

140
00:07:27,954 --> 00:07:29,420
We have a problem.

141
00:07:29,423 --> 00:07:30,890
(CRYING) She's dead, isn't she?

142
00:07:30,893 --> 00:07:33,361
I don't want to be here.
Why are we here?

143
00:07:34,121 --> 00:07:36,021
GIRL: Mommy!
I want my mommy!

144
00:07:36,006 --> 00:07:37,234
Why can't I talk to her?
I want my mommy!

145
00:07:37,252 --> 00:07:38,947
Hey, hey, hey.
It's going to be all right.

146
00:07:38,946 --> 00:07:41,847
Your daddy is coming
to take you home. Yes.

147
00:07:41,791 --> 00:07:44,055
The unit at JFK just called.
I want my mommy! I want my mommy!

148
00:07:44,027 --> 00:07:45,085
They're bringing
Mr. Rankin in.

149
00:07:45,114 --> 00:07:47,309
It's okay. Daddy is coming.
He's going to take you home.

150
00:07:47,926 --> 00:07:51,418
She's been teaching
adult education for a year.

151
00:07:51,346 --> 00:07:54,747
She used to teach high school,
but they had cutbacks.

152
00:07:55,565 --> 00:07:57,658
I kept telling her to quit.

153
00:07:57,865 --> 00:07:59,230
Why's that?

154
00:07:59,623 --> 00:08:03,650
I make a good living.
But Maureen loved teaching.

155
00:08:04,672 --> 00:08:08,403
She was always trying to improve
herself, better her skills.

156
00:08:08,603 --> 00:08:14,041
She... You know, she taped her classes,
she took those public speaking courses.

157
00:08:13,876 --> 00:08:16,401
Was she having any problems
with anybody?

158
00:08:16,368 --> 00:08:18,632
No. She never
said anything.

159
00:08:18,606 --> 00:08:21,097
VAN BUREN: She taught
high school equivalency?

160
00:08:21,514 --> 00:08:24,005
She must have had some real
characters in her class.

161
00:08:23,975 --> 00:08:26,205
Oh, sure. About
what you'd expect.

162
00:08:26,180 --> 00:08:28,613
Any of them ever
give her trouble?

163
00:08:28,799 --> 00:08:32,860
I don't know. I went
to a graduation with her.

164
00:08:33,625 --> 00:08:36,890
Some of her students were
ex-cons, ex-drug addicts.

165
00:08:38,610 --> 00:08:40,874
They all stopped to thank her.

166
00:08:46,472 --> 00:08:49,407
I was really proud of
her for what she did.

167
00:08:53,247 --> 00:08:55,477
I have to get back to my kids.

168
00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:00,467
Hey, that was Rankin's school.

169
00:09:00,469 --> 00:09:03,905
Security guard last saw her walking
to her car in the parking lot.

170
00:09:03,825 --> 00:09:06,157
They're going to fax over a
list of students and teachers.

171
00:09:06,126 --> 00:09:08,924
What, on the off chance that one
of them had a beef with Rankin?

172
00:09:08,875 --> 00:09:11,036
We'll split them up
between Gia and Profaci.

173
00:09:11,015 --> 00:09:13,176
You two follow Rankin's tracks.

174
00:09:13,188 --> 00:09:16,123
The sitter said she
stopped to get some gas.

175
00:09:16,863 --> 00:09:19,331
Eight sales?
That hardly pays for the squeegees.

176
00:09:19,292 --> 00:09:22,728
Accounting is not my major.
Music. Juilliard.

177
00:09:22,648 --> 00:09:24,206
That's why I took this job.

178
00:09:24,214 --> 00:09:26,239
You know how hard it is
to get a practice room?

179
00:09:26,228 --> 00:09:29,924
These eight customers,
any of them a tan Nissan?

180
00:09:29,837 --> 00:09:31,930
No. No tan cars.

181
00:09:31,915 --> 00:09:33,849
Anybody look like this?

182
00:09:33,832 --> 00:09:37,165
No. No women, either.
Excuse me.

183
00:09:38,210 --> 00:09:40,508
I don't know, maybe she was grabbed
in the school parking lot.

184
00:09:40,479 --> 00:09:43,778
Well, assuming our perp had brains
enough to read a gas gauge,

185
00:09:43,707 --> 00:09:45,732
maybe he stopped for gas.

186
00:09:46,327 --> 00:09:48,318
CURTIS: She would have been
in a Nissan sedan.

187
00:09:48,309 --> 00:09:53,042
I know Cadillac, Rolls
Royce, Mercedes, Lincoln.

188
00:09:52,911 --> 00:09:54,208
The others all look the same.

189
00:09:54,221 --> 00:09:56,052
Okay, this was a tan,
four-door.

190
00:09:56,043 --> 00:09:58,477
Oh, yes, yes, yes.

191
00:09:59,047 --> 00:10:02,107
Came in right after 11:00.
A young man. Spanish.

192
00:10:02,051 --> 00:10:05,612
He bought $5 worth of petrol.
He made me very nervous.

193
00:10:05,535 --> 00:10:06,763
Nervous?
Why is that?

194
00:10:06,781 --> 00:10:08,749
He went behind the station.

195
00:10:09,593 --> 00:10:11,254
Not for very long.

196
00:10:13,013 --> 00:10:14,480
The dumpster.
Yup.

197
00:10:18,317 --> 00:10:21,115
Rey, anything moves in there,
I'm backing you up.

198
00:10:21,066 --> 00:10:22,693
Hey, there's room
for two here, Lennie.

199
00:10:22,696 --> 00:10:25,823
Well, if I'd have brought some gloves,
I'd be right in there with you.

200
00:10:26,913 --> 00:10:30,508
Hey, what's this?

201
00:10:35,159 --> 00:10:36,751
Maureen Rankin.

202
00:10:38,067 --> 00:10:41,093
CURTIS: Latent already went through this.
The purse was wiped clean.

203
00:10:41,039 --> 00:10:45,066
BRISCOE: All her credit cards are
accounted for, plus $46 and some change.

204
00:10:45,705 --> 00:10:48,538
Her husband said she
recorded her classes.

205
00:10:49,476 --> 00:10:51,273
So, where's the tape?

206
00:10:51,969 --> 00:10:54,597
No tape was found
on or near the body.

207
00:10:59,702 --> 00:11:05,072
We got six unmatched pairs of shoes,
dozen panties, condoms by the bucketful.

208
00:11:04,911 --> 00:11:06,708
Sounds like the back
of my first car.

209
00:11:06,701 --> 00:11:07,827
LT!

210
00:11:11,239 --> 00:11:12,638
Right here.

211
00:11:15,873 --> 00:11:17,568
Looks like the real deal.

212
00:11:17,566 --> 00:11:19,625
Yeah, with a footprint on it.

No one has come near it.

255

No, no. We're looking for a tan Nissan.
That one is black.

256
00:13:16,767 --> 00:13:18,234
Besides, the plates
aren't even close.

257

Those plates are for a Chevy.

I did a walk-by.

I got it two days ago from an ad at the
bodega on Prospect. It was all legal.

289
00:14:54,173 --> 00:14:55,401
What did the ad say?

290
00:14:55,962 --> 00:15:00,092
It had a beeper number. This guy Sal
called me back and brought the car around.

291
00:14:59,989 --> 00:15:03,481
Is this him? He also goes
by the name of Fernando.

292
00:15:04,208 --> 00:15:08,235
No. Terra had a moustache.
He said he was moving back to San Juan.

293
00:15:08,138 --> 00:15:11,198
I gave him $1,500 and
he gave me the papers.

00:15:11,941 --> 00:15:13,966
So, what are you going
to do with my car?

295
00:15:13,955 --> 00:15:16,753
The car is stolen, Ms. Galvez.
It's going back to the legal owner.

296
00:15:16,703 --> 00:15:20,763
Stolen? That's impossible! He showed me his ID.
He had the registration.

297
00:15:20,984 --> 00:15:23,179
I never had a car before.
I thought it was okay.

Hey, you help us find him,
maybe you get your money back.

00:15:25,330 --> 00:15:27,025
You still have
his beeper number?

300
00:15:27,024 --> 00:15:28,457
No, I threw it away.

301
00:15:28,462 --> 00:15:31,295
I can't believe you're taking my car.
It's not fair.

302
00:15:31,243 --> 00:15:33,768
My daughter spent all her
savings on that car.

303
00:15:33,735 --> 00:15:37,193
Really? Talk to the owner.
Let him tell you what it cost him.

front door of the DMV.

stolen registrations.

This bag of scum killed their mother.

Okay, okay. Sure,
it's one of mine.

342
00:17:28,110 --> 00:17:30,510
I sold it three days ago
to some no-name Latin kid.

Pretty close.

I make a quality product.

348
00:17:42,332 --> 00:17:45,495
He didn't want any problems because
the car was for his fiancée.

349
00:17:46,231 --> 00:17:48,597
I already told you.
I saw the ad in the bodega.

Well, you must have been

remembers it.

Well, maybe I was the first one who
saw it and I took it home with me.

to pitch for the Dodgers.

forged the registration for him

that he stole the car
for his fiancée.

And that implicates you
in a murder, sweetheart.

with my own money.

in the field?

455
00:22:58,485 --> 00:23:00,316
To watch the answering machine?

456
00:23:00,306 --> 00:23:02,274
I like her.
So will you.

457
00:23:15,582 --> 00:23:16,844
We're presenting the Salva case

458
00:23:16,860 --> 00:23:18,953
to the grand jury
this afternoon.

459
00:23:20,151 --> 00:23:22,551
I prepared the slip.
It's my first capital case.

460
00:23:22,516 --> 00:23:25,246
I wanted to make sure
I dotted all the I's.

461
00:23:25,968 --> 00:23:28,334
It's fine. Just amend it
to murder two.

462
00:23:29,227 --> 00:23:31,787
Murder in furtherance of
a robbery is murder one.

463
00:23:31,752 --> 00:23:35,188
The statute reads, " With intent to
cause the death of another person."

464
00:23:35,108 --> 00:23:37,599
Salva bashed Rankin's head
in and left her for dead.

465
00:23:37,569 --> 00:23:38,797
His intent couldn't
have been clearer.

466
00:23:38,815 --> 00:23:40,942
It would be if he
had used his gun.

467
00:23:40,924 --> 00:23:43,620
I didn't realize I was still in the
business of arguing the defense's case.

468
00:23:43,577 --> 00:23:46,045
We're in the business of proving
things beyond a reasonable doubt.

469
00:23:46,006 --> 00:23:49,305
We can prove murder two, depraved
indifference, without breaking a sweat.

470
00:23:49,233 --> 00:23:52,634
So, give the jury the option
with a lesser included charge.

471
00:23:52,557 --> 00:23:56,459
I don't mind breaking a sweat if at the
end of the day we put Salva's lights out.

472
00:23:56,359 --> 00:23:59,192
An eye for an eye?
No. One worthless life

473
00:23:59,140 --> 00:24:00,937
for the six he destroyed.

474
00:24:00,930 --> 00:24:04,229
You heard the tape. She showed him
pictures of her kids, for God's sake.

475
00:24:04,157 --> 00:24:08,218
A good emotional argument.
It doesn't prove the prima facie case.

476
00:24:08,120 --> 00:24:10,020
I'm surprised. I mean,
with all due respect,

477
00:24:10,006 --> 00:24:12,701
you witnessed Mickey Scott's execution
and went right back to work.

478
00:24:12,912 --> 00:24:14,277
I haven't gone soft,
Ms. Ross.

479
00:24:14,287 --> 00:24:17,620
I can believe in the death penalty
without being sanguine about it.

480
00:24:17,547 --> 00:24:20,038
Well, don't temper your
enthusiasm on my account.

481
00:24:21,030 --> 00:24:23,123
This is not a capital case.

482
00:24:29,052 --> 00:24:32,488
Well, I've seen this evidence
of yours, Mr. McCoy.

483
00:24:33,014 --> 00:24:35,414
No prints on
the purse. No gun.

484
00:24:36,115 --> 00:24:39,084
And there's the member
of our Hindu community

485
00:24:39,022 --> 00:24:41,422
who can tell a Brahman
bull from a Guernsey,

486
00:24:41,387 --> 00:24:45,517
but can't tell what kind of car it was
that my client was allegedly driving.

487
00:24:45,414 --> 00:24:48,042
Mr. Mercer...
And then there is Victor Driscoll.

488
00:24:48,002 --> 00:24:49,492
Counterfeiter.

489
00:24:49,792 --> 00:24:53,626
What can we say about him that hasn't
already been said by a dozen parole boards?

490
00:24:53,531 --> 00:24:56,364
We have the victim's own
identification on tape.

491
00:24:57,846 --> 00:25:00,576
My turn to have a brief
handy, Ms. Ross.

492
00:25:01,296 --> 00:25:03,025
Motion to suppress.

493
00:25:05,420 --> 00:25:09,322
Tough to suppress the fact that the
car was in his fiancée's possession.

494
00:25:09,222 --> 00:25:11,781
Well, then charge her
with the carjacking.

495
00:25:11,746 --> 00:25:12,735
What?

496
00:25:12,769 --> 00:25:14,566
Oh, no, it's a lawyer's joke, son.

497
00:25:15,389 --> 00:25:17,721
He's very much
in love with her.

498
00:25:17,914 --> 00:25:20,348
Mr. McCoy,
Ms. Ross.

499
00:25:24,465 --> 00:25:28,401
Mercer's arguing that the tape can't
be authenticated. Is that right?

500
00:25:30,282 --> 00:25:34,616
Well, I compared the voiceprints from
Salva and the voice on the tape.

501
00:25:34,500 --> 00:25:36,400
It's a 20 to 40% match.

502
00:25:36,897 --> 00:25:39,593
Well, 100 would be good,
but I'd settle for 60 to 80.

503
00:25:40,252 --> 00:25:44,154
Well, you have a muffled microphone,
too much background noise,

504
00:25:44,535 --> 00:25:48,232
not to mention the tape
was ground into the mud.

505
00:25:48,593 --> 00:25:50,356
They cleaned up a tape that
went through a plane crash

506
00:25:50,351 --> 00:25:51,875
and sat in a Florida
swamp for two weeks.

507
00:25:51,885 --> 00:25:54,376
This tape wasn't encased
in a steel box.

508
00:25:54,346 --> 00:25:57,110
You write 40% on your report,
and no jury will ever hear it.

509
00:25:57,062 --> 00:25:59,155
I'm not perjuring myself.

510
00:25:59,139 --> 00:26:02,802
I'm just asking you to be a little bit
more aggressive in your conclusions.

511
00:26:03,390 --> 00:26:06,291
Expert defense witnesses
do that, Ms. Ross.

512
00:26:11,090 --> 00:26:15,083
MERCER: The voice can't be conclusively
identified as my client's.

513
00:26:14,990 --> 00:26:19,689
And we don't have the victim to authenticate
when or where this tape was made.

514
00:26:19,559 --> 00:26:22,221
We don't need Mrs. Rankin
to authenticate.

515
00:26:22,181 --> 00:26:23,773
<i>People v. Brown allows
the admission</i>

516
00:26:23,778 --> 00:26:26,645
of a spontaneous description
of events as they occur.

517
00:26:26,590 --> 00:26:31,459
That's fine if Mrs.
Rankin had physically described my client,

518
00:26:31,320 --> 00:26:33,652
but all they have is a voice.

519
00:26:33,621 --> 00:26:38,718
She elicited from Mr. Salva his first
name, where he lives and with whom.

520
00:26:38,926 --> 00:26:40,791
<i>Under People v.
McGee, that's enough to authenticate.</i>

521
00:26:40,907 --> 00:26:44,104
And if he had
identified himself as Jack,

522
00:26:44,039 --> 00:26:46,769
a lawyer living alone
on the West Side?

523
00:26:47,235 --> 00:26:51,228
No, the only thing the tape proves
is that the killer knew my client.

524
00:26:51,134 --> 00:26:55,230
<i>I have a cite here,
People v. Theriault.</i>

525
00:26:55,129 --> 00:26:57,825
Theriault supports admitting
tape recorded conversations.

526
00:26:57,781 --> 00:27:02,241
Yes. It also sets a standard
for admissibility.

527
00:27:03,502 --> 00:27:06,164
"A mere self-serving
statement of identity

528
00:27:06,122 --> 00:27:09,249
"by a person whose voice
is unknown to the listener

529
00:27:09,605 --> 00:27:11,766
"is insufficient
authentication."

530
00:27:11,874 --> 00:27:12,932
Let me see that.

531
00:27:13,440 --> 00:27:16,773
What possible motive would he
have to lie about his identity?

532
00:27:16,699 --> 00:27:17,757
He knew he was
going to kill her.

533
00:27:17,786 --> 00:27:20,687
I'm sorry, Mr. McCoy.
It's on point.

534
00:27:21,429 --> 00:27:23,522
You need Mrs. Rankin
to authenticate.

535
00:27:23,506 --> 00:27:26,600
If she were available, Your
Honor, we wouldn't be here.

536
00:27:26,542 --> 00:27:29,375
It's absurd. His client
benefits from killing.

537
00:27:29,323 --> 00:27:33,157
That's enough. I'm ruling for the motion.
The tape is out.

538
00:27:33,956 --> 00:27:35,651
Thank you very much,
Your Honor.

539
00:27:37,727 --> 00:27:41,788
Abe Mercer. Ten years ago,
he was a broken-down valise.

540
00:27:41,690 --> 00:27:45,091
Bad divorce, partners
suing him, ethics review.

541
00:27:45,014 --> 00:27:48,415
If Doc Gooden can rise from
the dead, why not Abe Mercer?

542
00:27:48,337 --> 00:27:50,032
With a little help
from Judge Scarletti.

543
00:27:50,031 --> 00:27:51,328
Spilled milk.

544
00:27:51,342 --> 00:27:55,438
Half the time he makes idiotic
rulings in our favor.

545
00:27:55,687 --> 00:27:57,655
There still a case here?

546
00:27:57,637 --> 00:28:00,105
Without the tape, it's the
Bulls without Jordan.

547
00:28:00,066 --> 00:28:03,661
Yeah, well, seven-and-a-half-to-15
is better than nothing.

548
00:28:03,581 --> 00:28:06,345
Put on your game face
and talk to Mercer.

549
00:28:06,298 --> 00:28:08,765
In his shoes, I'd take
a chance with a jury.

550
00:28:08,725 --> 00:28:12,525
Yeah, well, Scarletti will
take the hit in the press,

551
00:28:12,433 --> 00:28:15,334
and a month from now
it'll be "Fernando who?"

552
00:28:17,546 --> 00:28:19,639
(KNOCKING ON DOOR)
JACK: Come in.

553
00:28:19,623 --> 00:28:21,488
Jack, you got a minute?

554
00:28:24,385 --> 00:28:27,877
This is Chuck Rodman with the U.S.
Attorney's in the Southern District.

555
00:28:28,603 --> 00:28:30,503
Chuck and I went to
Columbia together.

556
00:28:30,489 --> 00:28:32,684
I told him about
the Salva case.

557
00:28:32,662 --> 00:28:37,531
Yeah. Jamie tells me you might have to
take a plea and you're not happy about it.

558
00:28:37,966 --> 00:28:40,400
I appreciate your stopping
in to commiserate.

559
00:28:41,067 --> 00:28:43,433
Well, I can offer more
than my sympathies.

560
00:28:44,134 --> 00:28:46,568
We'd like to take
the case off your hands.

561
00:28:46,532 --> 00:28:48,591
Under the federal
anti-carjacking statutes,

562
00:28:48,577 --> 00:28:51,375
we don't need to prove that Mr.
Salva intended to kill Mrs. Rankin

563
00:28:51,325 --> 00:28:53,486
in order to seek
the death penalty.

564
00:28:53,466 --> 00:28:55,730
<i>U.S. V. Holloway.
I'm familiar with the ruling.</i>

565
00:28:55,703 --> 00:28:58,001
Then you're also aware that the
federal standards for authentication

566
00:28:57,972 --> 00:29:00,031
are much broader
than New York's.

567
00:29:00,017 --> 00:29:01,314
They can get the tape back in.

568
00:29:02,159 --> 00:29:03,456
It's forum shopping.

569
00:29:04,300 --> 00:29:08,201
I did the research. Collateral
estoppel won't prevent a federal judge

570
00:29:08,102 --> 00:29:09,797
from revisiting
Scarletti's decision.

571
00:29:09,796 --> 00:29:12,026
We can practically
guarantee a conviction.

572
00:29:12,608 --> 00:29:14,235
And an execution.

573
00:29:15,133 --> 00:29:18,864
That would make a nice pair of
antlers to hang on your wall.

574
00:29:19,607 --> 00:29:22,440
I'll think about it.
(EMPHATICALLY) The Feds have a stronger case.

575
00:29:23,314 --> 00:29:24,804
I said I'd think about it.

576
00:29:25,263 --> 00:29:27,731
Thanks for coming in,
Mr. Rodman.

577
00:29:31,048 --> 00:29:32,242
Right.

578
00:29:40,507 --> 00:29:44,238
Stacking sandbags.
You learn that from Neal Gorton?

579
00:29:45,812 --> 00:29:49,077
No, I learned what defense
attorneys are capable of.

580
00:29:49,008 --> 00:29:51,306
Mercer is halfway
to an acquittal.

581
00:29:51,277 --> 00:29:54,405
We lose in state court and
the Feds can't touch Salva.

582
00:29:54,345 --> 00:29:56,711
He's going to be free because we
passed up on this opportunity.

583
00:29:56,678 --> 00:29:58,145
Think how that will play
in the media.

584
00:29:58,148 --> 00:30:00,412
No wonder Adam likes you.

585
00:30:00,385 --> 00:30:02,285
The case is dead in the water.

586
00:30:02,271 --> 00:30:03,499
According to you.

587
00:30:05,338 --> 00:30:08,671
You seem to think that you're the
only capable attorney in this office.

588
00:30:08,597 --> 00:30:11,725
I have known Chuck Rodman for 10 years.
I don't see what the problem is.

589
00:30:11,666 --> 00:30:13,600
I don't like end-runs.

590
00:30:13,583 --> 00:30:15,915
You want to bring in the
Feds, you talk to me first.

591
00:30:15,884 --> 00:30:17,317
So, this is a pissing contest?

592
00:30:17,321 --> 00:30:19,516
I thought if Salva gets the
maximum, everybody wins.

593
00:30:19,494 --> 00:30:23,055
In my office, we don't hand
off the ball, we run with it.

594
00:30:23,362 --> 00:30:26,354
Maureen Rankin was killed
in our jurisdiction!

595
00:30:27,516 --> 00:30:30,508
Prosecuting her killer
is our responsibility!

596
00:30:37,679 --> 00:30:41,137
We tossed Salva's apartment
and his fiancée's. No gun.

597
00:30:41,066 --> 00:30:42,829
The car was repainted.

598
00:30:42,824 --> 00:30:46,089
I read in a forensics textbook last night
that paint has unique characteristics.

599
00:30:46,020 --> 00:30:49,080
Right. You can match it up
to the manufacturer.

600
00:30:49,024 --> 00:30:51,754
So, if we knew who in Salva's
neighborhood uses this paint,

601
00:30:51,708 --> 00:30:53,573
that might lead us
to another witness.

602
00:30:53,946 --> 00:30:58,144
Well, not that we didn't think of that,
but the lab says they're all backed up.

603
00:30:59,058 --> 00:31:00,719
Would a call from
the judge's clerk help?

604
00:31:03,947 --> 00:31:05,608
Consider it done.

605
00:31:06,983 --> 00:31:08,211
See you.

606
00:31:08,549 --> 00:31:09,641
Bye.

607
00:31:11,074 --> 00:31:13,008
Lot to be said for
pretty faces, Lennie.

608
00:31:14,781 --> 00:31:18,808
Marino's Titanium Black?
You're talking about a very popular color.

609
00:31:18,712 --> 00:31:19,770
Everybody carries it.

610
00:31:19,798 --> 00:31:23,632
Yeah, well, here in Belmont, everybody
is you and two other places.

611
00:31:23,537 --> 00:31:24,970
And we checked out
their invoices.

612
00:31:24,976 --> 00:31:26,671
They've been out of that
color for over a month.

613
00:31:26,669 --> 00:31:30,867
Look, you painted that car, eh, Mr.
Cervantes? That's destroying evidence.

614
00:31:30,760 --> 00:31:32,591
Maybe even accessory to murder.

615
00:31:32,581 --> 00:31:34,344
(LAUGHING NERVOUSLY) What?

616
00:31:35,426 --> 00:31:36,586
This is a joke.

617
00:31:36,608 --> 00:31:38,769
Oh, you think that's funny?
Well, just for laughs,

618
00:31:38,749 --> 00:31:41,047
maybe we'll close your place
down for a couple of weeks

619
00:31:41,018 --> 00:31:42,610
while we investigate.

620
00:31:42,616 --> 00:31:45,847
Hey, look, I just let Salva
use my shop after hours,

621
00:31:46,259 --> 00:31:48,454
but I didn't know it had anything
to do with any stolen car.

622
00:31:48,433 --> 00:31:49,525
You saw him with the car?

623
00:31:49,551 --> 00:31:53,351
No. I lent him the keys.
He used to work for me.

624
00:31:53,801 --> 00:31:56,599
He came by about a week before.
Then his girlfriend stopped by.

625
00:31:56,550 --> 00:31:58,916
CURTIS: What for?
To pick out the color.

626
00:31:59,586 --> 00:32:02,487
She thought that Titanium
Black sounded sexy.

627
00:32:03,963 --> 00:32:05,191
The paint is an exact match,

628
00:32:05,209 --> 00:32:08,337
but Cervantes can't put him
together with the car.

629
00:32:08,278 --> 00:32:10,303
Not exactly a smoking gun.

630
00:32:10,291 --> 00:32:11,986
No, you had the smoking gun.

631
00:32:11,984 --> 00:32:14,350
Which was left in a muddy
field for three days.

632
00:32:14,317 --> 00:32:15,750
I guess our screw-up
was finding it.

633
00:32:15,755 --> 00:32:16,847
Rey, cool it.
Come on.

634
00:32:16,874 --> 00:32:18,899
The counselor is right.
We messed up.

635
00:32:18,887 --> 00:32:20,855
Group effort, Detective.

636
00:32:22,210 --> 00:32:24,337
If Salva walks,
we're all in for it.

637
00:32:25,566 --> 00:32:27,659
Unless we turn his fiancée.

638
00:32:28,314 --> 00:32:30,714
As far as I know, they haven't
canceled the wedding.

639
00:32:30,680 --> 00:32:33,774
She picked out the paint color three
days before the car was stolen.

640
00:32:33,715 --> 00:32:35,182
She knew what Salva was up to.

641
00:32:35,537 --> 00:32:37,334
It's enough to make her
an accomplice.

642
00:32:38,701 --> 00:32:40,726
At least for a grand jury.

643
00:32:41,002 --> 00:32:43,470
Pick her up.
The charge is murder.

644
00:32:46,020 --> 00:32:47,180
MERCER: This is
getting out of hand.

645
00:32:47,202 --> 00:32:51,571
Next, you'll be warming a bed down the
geriatric ward for his grandmother.

646
00:32:51,452 --> 00:32:54,353
You can't get me,
so you go after the women.

647
00:32:54,712 --> 00:32:57,272
That make you feel like you got
something between your legs?

648
00:32:58,035 --> 00:33:01,800
It doesn't give me the same rise you
got from killing Maureen Rankin.

649
00:33:02,636 --> 00:33:05,901
If you want to spare your fiancée,
you know exactly what to do.

650
00:33:05,832 --> 00:33:07,993
He's not admitting to anything.

651
00:33:07,973 --> 00:33:09,167
What about you,
Ms. Galvez?

652
00:33:09,187 --> 00:33:10,347
She's not talking either.

653
00:33:10,370 --> 00:33:13,931
JACK: Ms. Galvez, unless you want to
go down the same drain as Mr. Salva,

654
00:33:13,854 --> 00:33:16,379
I advise you to
get your own lawyer.

655
00:33:20,405 --> 00:33:24,171
I don't understand what's taking so long.
I mean, you have the right guy, don't you?

656
00:33:24,400 --> 00:33:25,765
Yes, we do.

657
00:33:27,436 --> 00:33:30,599
I see him on television with his lawyer,
that superior look on his face,

658
00:33:30,535 --> 00:33:32,298
and I wanna just...

659
00:33:33,891 --> 00:33:35,256
I want that punk
dead, Ms. Ross,

660
00:33:35,266 --> 00:33:37,325
and I want to do it
myself, you know?

661
00:33:38,845 --> 00:33:41,177
I hate what this
is doing to me.

662
00:33:42,647 --> 00:33:47,607
I understand that feeling, Mr.
Rankin, but he's not your responsibility.

663
00:33:48,304 --> 00:33:50,204
We'll take care of him.

664
00:33:58,883 --> 00:34:01,077
Somebody will call you as
soon as we have a trial date.

665
00:34:01,054 --> 00:34:04,046
I appreciate that.
Thank you.

666
00:34:09,044 --> 00:34:13,708
The part of the job they don't train you for.
Looks like you handled it well.

667
00:34:13,870 --> 00:34:15,895
It's not hard once you
identify with their hate.

668
00:34:16,010 --> 00:34:17,102
What?

669
00:34:18,311 --> 00:34:21,769
Neal and I had a client.
James Carper.

670
00:34:23,201 --> 00:34:24,691
A sex murderer.

671
00:34:26,173 --> 00:34:28,141
While the D.A. Is describing
the crime to the jury,

672
00:34:28,122 --> 00:34:31,683
Carper gets an erection Barnum and
Bailey could have pitched a tent on.

673
00:34:32,500 --> 00:34:35,264
I threw my coat over his lap
so the jury wouldn't notice.

674
00:34:35,952 --> 00:34:38,011
I remember the case.
Carper walked.

675
00:34:37,997 --> 00:34:41,455
Yeah, even though his DNA
was all over the crime scene.

676
00:34:43,206 --> 00:34:46,972
Neal built his practice on the
infallibility of DNA evidence.

677
00:34:46,881 --> 00:34:51,909
Then he met Carper's trust fund.
New tune, DNA is unreliable.

678
00:34:52,571 --> 00:34:54,095
The jury acquits.

679
00:34:54,680 --> 00:34:56,944
And three months later,
Carper killed again.

680
00:34:59,281 --> 00:35:02,478
I believe in monsters and things
that go bump in the night, Jack.

681
00:35:03,946 --> 00:35:07,109
May they rot in hell
along with their attorneys.

682
00:35:10,210 --> 00:35:12,701
I got a call from
Marcy Wrightman.

683
00:35:13,758 --> 00:35:16,818
As of this morning, she
represents Anna Galvez.

684
00:35:18,167 --> 00:35:20,397
Looks like the wedding is off.

685
00:35:24,911 --> 00:35:26,708
I'm not going to bore
you with a lot of talk

686
00:35:26,700 --> 00:35:29,225
about soul-searching
and heartbreak.

687
00:35:30,568 --> 00:35:33,162
Anna spent a week in prison.
It was enough.

688
00:35:34,274 --> 00:35:35,901
We're listening,
Ms. Wrightman.

689
00:35:37,693 --> 00:35:40,628
Salva told her where he
hid the gun he used.

690
00:35:40,954 --> 00:35:43,320
She talks, she walks.

691
00:35:44,437 --> 00:35:47,736
Maybe you didn't read the case file.
Mrs. Rankin wasn't shot.

692
00:35:47,665 --> 00:35:50,964
He struck her with the butt.
All the evidence you need is on the gun.

693
00:35:51,211 --> 00:35:54,703
But first, all the charges
against Anna disappear.

694
00:35:54,632 --> 00:35:56,224
After she testifies in court.

695
00:35:56,229 --> 00:35:58,389
(SCOFFS) No way.

696
00:35:58,370 --> 00:36:00,736
I'm not talking against
Fernando to his face.

697
00:36:00,702 --> 00:36:03,796
I'll tell you where the
gun is, but that's it.

698
00:36:09,012 --> 00:36:10,536
Okay, deal.

699
00:36:11,248 --> 00:36:14,308
Provided the gun conclusively
links Salva to the murder.

700
00:36:15,627 --> 00:36:17,185
BRISCOE: He makes a wrong
turn with that hook,

701
00:36:17,192 --> 00:36:20,286
somebody sitting on the john
is in for a big surprise.

702
00:36:20,228 --> 00:36:23,322
I can think of nicer ways of
getting goosed in the morning.

703
00:36:24,032 --> 00:36:26,125
Got it.

704
00:36:31,190 --> 00:36:34,489
The grip panel is cracked.
That could be hair.

705
00:36:35,536 --> 00:36:37,970
It's Rankin's hair and
blood and Salva's prints.

706
00:36:37,933 --> 00:36:40,925
Tell Scarletti's clerk
we're ready for trial.

707
00:36:43,142 --> 00:36:46,600
From Mercer, about the gun.

708
00:36:48,671 --> 00:36:51,765
He's moving to suppress
on a claim of privilege.

709
00:36:52,825 --> 00:36:53,814
(SNORTS)

710
00:36:57,107 --> 00:37:00,439
The People's knowledge
of the gun's whereabouts

711
00:37:00,367 --> 00:37:05,771
came as a result of a privileged
communication between my client and myself.

712
00:37:05,608 --> 00:37:08,668
Our information came
from his client's fiancée.

713
00:37:08,867 --> 00:37:13,327
Mr. Salva and his fiancée, Ms.
Galvez, were conferring with me

714
00:37:13,213 --> 00:37:16,410
when Mr. Salva disclosed
where he had hidden the gun.

715
00:37:16,345 --> 00:37:20,008
<i>People v. Osorio, when a
client communicates with his attorney</i>

716
00:37:19,924 --> 00:37:21,391
in the presence
of a third party,

717
00:37:21,395 --> 00:37:22,953
it's assumed he's
waived privilege.

718
00:37:22,961 --> 00:37:24,952
Yes, it is.

719
00:37:24,942 --> 00:37:30,209
But at the time, I was both Mr.
Salva and Ms. Galvez's attorney.

720
00:37:30,055 --> 00:37:34,151
The communication was made for the
purpose of mounting a common defense.

721
00:37:34,050 --> 00:37:36,109
It's privileged.
Your Honor, for all we know,

722
00:37:36,096 --> 00:37:39,224
Mr. Salva told his fiancée
about the gun over dinner.

723
00:37:39,163 --> 00:37:40,528
I direct your attention,
Your Honor,

724
00:37:40,538 --> 00:37:45,134
to the supporting affidavits
from Mr. Salva and Ms. Galvez

725
00:37:45,011 --> 00:37:47,980
attesting to the time and place
the communications occurred.

726
00:37:47,919 --> 00:37:51,548
Your Honor, these affidavits
can't be taken at face value.

727
00:37:51,563 --> 00:37:54,657
They're self-serving, and in one
case, it may have been coerced.

728
00:37:54,599 --> 00:37:55,827
An outrageous accusation.

729
00:37:55,845 --> 00:37:59,109
Calm down, Mr. Mercer.
I'm granting your motion.

730
00:37:59,935 --> 00:38:01,425
The gun is out.

731
00:38:02,236 --> 00:38:05,603
You didn't think to mention that
there might be a privilege problem?

732
00:38:05,527 --> 00:38:06,926
She didn't tell me.

733
00:38:06,934 --> 00:38:09,596
She didn't know it made a difference
when Salva told her about the gun.

734
00:38:09,554 --> 00:38:10,578
And you didn't ask?

735
00:38:10,609 --> 00:38:14,443
I assumed it was between bouts
of heavy breathing. So did you.

736
00:38:14,635 --> 00:38:16,159
So, shoot us both.

737
00:38:16,170 --> 00:38:17,535
She'll have to take the stand.

738
00:38:17,543 --> 00:38:19,602
She'd rather eat ground glass.
Forget it.

739
00:38:20,292 --> 00:38:22,590
Use your powers of persuasion.

740
00:38:22,561 --> 00:38:23,653
Absolutely not.

741
00:38:24,191 --> 00:38:27,251
You agreed to a plea. We held up our end.
We gave you the gun.

742
00:38:29,784 --> 00:38:33,220
You renege, try cutting a
deal in this town again.

743
00:38:33,459 --> 00:38:34,653
See you.

744
00:38:35,823 --> 00:38:39,691
Your credibility is not a boomerang.
Give it up, it doesn't come back.

745
00:38:40,106 --> 00:38:41,767
One defendant is not worth it.

746
00:38:41,767 --> 00:38:44,235
We lost the tape.
We lost the gun.

747

I'm starting to doubt
the Constitution, Adam.

748

Well, gotta move to Montana.
Live on a compound.

You'll love this.

751
00:38:54,168 --> 00:38:58,069
Twelve years ago, Marcy Wrightman
shared an office with Abe Mercer.

752
00:38:58,321 --> 00:38:59,310
Where did you learn this from?

753
00:38:59,344 --> 00:39:00,504
A process server.

754
00:39:00,526 --> 00:39:02,892
Back then, Wrightman went
by her maiden name, Fletcher.

00:39:02,859 --> 00:39:08,491
Oh, yes. Marcy Fletcher.
They shared more than an office.

756
00:39:09,665 --> 00:39:12,828
Son of a bitch.
Mercer played us.

757
00:39:12,766 --> 00:39:14,358
He sent Ms. Galvez
to cut a deal

758
00:39:14,363 --> 00:39:15,728
knowing the gun
wouldn't get in.

759
00:39:16,218 --> 00:39:17,845
He got her off the hook,
but we'll never prove it.

760
00:39:17,847 --> 00:39:19,280
Not to sound like
a broken record...

761
00:39:19,285 --> 00:39:21,276
I'm not giving up on Salva.

762
00:39:23,408 --> 00:39:25,638
The gun can't be used
against Mr. Salva,

763
00:39:25,612 --> 00:39:27,705
but it can be used
against your client.

764
00:39:27,690 --> 00:39:29,317
We have a deal.

765
00:39:29,320 --> 00:39:33,586
With the State of New York, not
with the United States Government.

766
00:39:34,657 --> 00:39:36,386
JACK: Mr. Rodman,
this is Anna Galvez,

767
00:39:36,383 --> 00:39:40,046
and this is her attorney,
Marcy Fletcher Wrightman.

768
00:39:39,962 --> 00:39:42,362
Mr. Rodman is with
the U.S. Attorney's Office.

769
00:39:43,765 --> 00:39:44,993
What's going on here?

770
00:39:47,983 --> 00:39:50,577
This letter cedes
jurisdiction to the Feds.

771
00:39:50,539 --> 00:39:53,975
Ms. Galvez, you and your boyfriend
will be prosecuted in federal court.

772
00:39:53,896 --> 00:39:57,729
Mr. Rodman assures me the tape
will be admitted into evidence.

773
00:39:57,634 --> 00:40:02,071
Both of you will face the death penalty
under the anti-carjacking statute.

774
00:40:01,948 --> 00:40:02,937
<i>It's not
Romeo and Juliet...</i>

775
00:40:02,970 --> 00:40:04,494
Just because she knew
where the gun was

776
00:40:04,505 --> 00:40:05,870
doesn't make her an accomplice.

777
00:40:05,878 --> 00:40:07,903
I'd settle for one execution.

778
00:40:07,892 --> 00:40:09,086
What do you want from me?

779
00:40:09,106 --> 00:40:12,303
You take the stand against your
boyfriend, I tear up this letter.

780
00:40:14,315 --> 00:40:16,442
We need a moment alone here.

781
00:40:25,660 --> 00:40:28,288
So, what am I,
the dog or the pony?

782
00:40:28,632 --> 00:40:30,395
I don't know what
you're talking about.

783
00:40:30,422 --> 00:40:32,515
I blew off a staff meeting
to come here for this.

784
00:40:32,500 --> 00:40:35,298
Now, I came here in good faith and I
expected to leave with a capital case.

785
00:40:35,503 --> 00:40:36,902
I never promised you anything.

786
00:40:36,909 --> 00:40:40,037
Persona non grata, Jamie.
Your calls don't get returned.

787
00:40:46,752 --> 00:40:48,447
He'll get over it.

788
00:40:48,510 --> 00:40:49,738
(DOOR OPENING)

789
00:40:50,939 --> 00:40:56,171
Before she agrees to testify as to what Mr.
Salva told her about the crime,

790
00:40:56,690 --> 00:40:58,851
my client wants
an assurance from you.

791
00:40:59,535 --> 00:41:00,559
JACK: Yeah?

792
00:41:03,018 --> 00:41:05,043
I don't want my baby
to grow up without a father.

793
00:41:05,031 --> 00:41:06,692
I don't want Fernando
going away forever.

794
00:41:06,693 --> 00:41:08,456
You have to promise me
that he won't.

795
00:41:08,451 --> 00:41:10,783
Ms. Galvez, I'm sorry
about your situation,

796
00:41:10,752 --> 00:41:13,585
but the only way you can
help your boyfriend now

797
00:41:13,533 --> 00:41:16,627
is to keep Uncle Sam from
shoving a needle into his arm.

798
00:41:16,568 --> 00:41:18,559
You don't understand.
It's my fault.

799
00:41:18,550 --> 00:41:20,484
I made him promise
to get me a car

800
00:41:20,467 --> 00:41:23,459
so that I could take my mother
to work at night in Brooklyn.

801
00:41:23,407 --> 00:41:26,069
He has his pride.
He wanted to take care of me.

802
00:41:26,028 --> 00:41:28,963
He told you he was
planning to steal the car?

803
00:41:28,904 --> 00:41:33,000
Only after, when it was on the news.
He was so sick about it.

804
00:41:32,899 --> 00:41:36,198
That's why he didn't shoot her.
That's why he covered her up.

805
00:41:36,127 --> 00:41:40,587
He is not evil.
He did it for me because I wanted a car.

806
00:41:41,368 --> 00:41:46,271
Oh, God. I'm so sorry.
I'm so sorry it happened.

807
00:41:53,127 --> 00:41:56,460
SCARLETTI: For the record, the
jury having found Fernando Salva

808
00:41:56,386 --> 00:41:58,616
guilty of Murder in
the Second Degree,

809
00:41:58,592 --> 00:42:01,755
we are here for the purpose
of imposing sentence.

810
00:42:04,120 --> 00:42:05,644
Mr. McCoy, are you
ready to proceed?

811
00:42:07,731 --> 00:42:11,223
Your Honor, I renew my objection.
You excluded this tape...

812
00:42:11,152 --> 00:42:14,417
At trial.
It's being offered at this hearing

813
00:42:14,347 --> 00:42:16,679
not for its probative value,

814
00:42:16,648 --> 00:42:19,549
but as an aggravating
factor in sentencing.

815
00:42:20,387 --> 00:42:21,911
Now, sit down.

816
00:42:25,851 --> 00:42:28,376
<i>MAUREEN ON TAPE: Fernando,
please, think about this.</i>

817
00:42:28,345 --> 00:42:29,972
<i>All the trouble
you'll get in.</i>

818
00:42:29,975 --> 00:42:31,840
<i>You'll regret it for
the rest of your life.</i>

819
00:42:31,828 --> 00:42:33,796
<i>SALVA: It's too late.
It don't matter.</i>

820
00:42:33,777 --> 00:42:36,678
<i>I've met a lot of young
men like you in my work.</i>

821
00:42:36,622 --> 00:42:40,114
<i>Boys everyone gave up on.
But they turned their lives around.</i>

822
00:42:40,041 --> 00:42:44,478
<i>So can you, Fernando. I can help you.
I want to help you.</i>

823
00:42:44,356 --> 00:42:45,345
<i>Get out of the car.</i>

824
00:42:45,378 --> 00:42:46,970
<i>No, wait.
Listen to me.</i>

825
00:42:46,976 --> 00:42:49,308
<i>Think of all the people
you're going to hurt.</i>

826
00:42:49,277 --> 00:42:51,870
<i>Your family.
You'll ruin their lives.</i>

827
00:42:52,025 --> 00:42:53,856
<i>Come on. Come on, move.</i>

828
00:42:53,846 --> 00:42:54,870
<i>No, please.</i>

829
00:42:54,901 --> 00:42:56,994
<i>Look at the picture.
Look at my little babies.</i>

830
00:42:56,977 --> 00:42:58,740
<i>I love them so much.
I love their father.</i>

831
00:42:58,736 --> 00:43:00,761
<i>Please, don't take me away from him.
Come on!</i>

832
00:43:00,749 --> 00:43:02,649
<i>No! No, I don't want to die!
Let go!</i>

833
00:43:02,634 --> 00:43:03,658
<i>No, stop!</i>

834
00:43:03,688 --> 00:43:05,178
<i>Shut up! Let go!
Please!</i>

835
00:43:05,191 --> 00:43:06,180
<i>For the love of God,
don't kill me!</i>

836
00:43:06,213 --> 00:43:08,044
<i>Let go!
Turn around.</i>

837
00:43:08,482 --> 00:43:10,006
<i>Please, just stop
and think, Fernando.</i>

838
00:43:10,016 --> 00:43:11,040
<i>You're making
a terrible mistake.</i>

839
00:43:11,071 --> 00:43:12,231
<i>Just stop and think.</i>

840
00:43:22,736 --> 00:43:24,931
The People have nothing
further, Your Honor.

841
00:43:37,980 --> 00:43:40,073
The lab ran off a copy.

842
00:43:40,057 --> 00:43:41,081
Good.

843
00:43:42,070 --> 00:43:47,337
I'm leaving instructions to play it at
Salva's parole hearing 25 years from now.

844
00:43:48,590 --> 00:43:51,456
Makes you wonder how close she
came to walking away from it.

845
00:43:53,446 --> 00:43:55,243
She was dead the minute
he said, "Drive."

846
00:43:56,099 --> 00:43:57,532
Then why didn't he shoot her?

847
00:43:57,536 --> 00:43:58,867
The noise.

848
00:44:00,541 --> 00:44:03,271
So, you want to join me
for a club soda?

849
00:44:04,759 --> 00:44:06,727
Not tonight.
Rain check?

850
00:44:09,330 --> 00:44:14,666
You know, a few weeks before it
happened, she wanted to quit.

851
00:44:16,360 --> 00:44:18,260
I talked her out of it.

852
00:44:19,300 --> 00:44:22,599
Yeah, well, I could have
kept walking past that bar.

853
00:44:22,649 --> 00:44:27,199
