00:07:10,100 --> 00:07:11,667
Well, until you find out
that he was working

162
00:07:11,711 --> 00:07:13,103
as a handyman
at the house next door.

163
00:07:13,147 --> 00:07:15,889
So based on the testimony
of one person,

164
00:07:15,932 --> 00:07:17,238
Dale got sentenced
to life.

165
00:07:17,281 --> 00:07:18,413
There had to be other evidence.

166
00:07:18,456 --> 00:07:20,720
I mean, DNA or
a murder weapon.

167
00:07:20,763 --> 00:07:22,765
ROBYN: Not according
to his lawyer's files.

168
00:07:22,809 --> 00:07:24,071
And he had no record.

169
00:07:24,114 --> 00:07:25,768
Prosecution used
the fact that he was

170
00:07:25,812 --> 00:07:27,640
working-class and struggling,
trying to provide

171
00:07:27,683 --> 00:07:29,685
- for his family as motive.
- It's hard to imagine

172
00:07:29,729 --> 00:07:31,469
being locked up for something
that you didn't do,

173
00:07:31,513 --> 00:07:33,254
and then watching,
helpless,

174
00:07:33,297 --> 00:07:35,299
as your kid goes
down the wrong road.

175
00:07:35,343 --> 00:07:36,518
Got him.

176
00:07:36,561 --> 00:07:39,086
No thanks to the
Department of Corrections.

177
00:07:39,129 --> 00:07:40,740
Their I.T. system's
a pit of idiocy.

Reginald Floyd,
aka Preacher.

179
00:07:43,003 --> 00:07:45,309
Did a nickel at
Fishkill for B and E.

180
00:07:45,353 --> 00:07:46,920
Shared a block with Tommy
for two of them.

181
00:07:46,963 --> 00:07:48,399
Look at this.

182
00:07:48,443 --> 00:07:51,141
- What?
- Apparently, he got a traffic ticket

183
00:07:51,185 --> 00:07:53,753
ten years ago: Rolling through
a stop sign in Great Neck.

184
00:07:53,796 --> 00:07:55,198
MEL:
Date on the ticket?

185
00:07:55,223 --> 00:07:57,060
Mm, June 11.

186
00:07:57,690 --> 00:08:00,020
Same night
as one of the first burglaries.

187
00:08:00,063 --> 00:08:01,569
That's our guy.
How do I find him?

188
00:08:02,794 --> 00:08:04,938
HARRY: It looks like he's in
Queens. Apparently found God

189
00:08:04,981 --> 00:08:06,417
on the inside...
He's got some kind

190
00:08:06,461 --> 00:08:07,897
of inner-city, uh, ministry now.

191
00:08:07,941 --> 00:08:10,453
Then he should know all about
the power of confession.

192
00:08:11,454 --> 00:08:13,594
Yo. Rob, hey.

193
00:08:13,664 --> 00:08:15,470
Uh, just watch your back
out there.

194
00:08:15,513 --> 00:08:16,819
That, uh, that cop

195
00:08:16,863 --> 00:08:18,691
that's been looking for you,
Marcus Dante, he's on

that's hunting Aldridge.

197

If you have to carry the sheep,

kidnapped your hopes,

kidnapped your future,

Are there any survivors online?

today is judgment day.

I know what you're thinking...
I'm a killer... but you're wrong.

to grand-slam my head.

220

You broke into my house.

221
00:09:40,218 --> 00:09:41,742
I heard someone
from my prison days

222
00:09:41,785 --> 00:09:43,700
was looking to get even,
then you showed up.

Looking for answers,

224
00:09:44,875 --> 00:09:47,350
about Great Neck,
the Carol Walton murder.

225
00:09:47,385 --> 00:09:49,097
Tommy Venti heard you confess.

226
00:09:49,140 --> 00:09:51,490
Then he starts asking questions
and ends up dead.

227
00:09:52,851 --> 00:09:53,983
Tommy's dead?

228
00:09:57,105 --> 00:09:58,671
I did confess...

229
00:09:58,715 --> 00:10:00,456
to the burglaries.

230
00:10:00,499 --> 00:10:02,023
But I ain't never killed nobody.

231
00:10:02,523 --> 00:10:04,112
You expect me to believe that?

232
00:10:04,155 --> 00:10:06,070
When Carol Walton
was murdered

233
00:10:06,114 --> 00:10:08,943
by someone using the exact
same M.O. as those robberies?

234
00:10:08,986 --> 00:10:10,292
I'm a man of God now.

235
00:10:10,656 --> 00:10:12,816
I confessed my sins,
and I'm telling you,

236
00:10:12,860 --> 00:10:14,557
murder wasn't one of them.

237
00:10:14,910 --> 00:10:16,689
So, what?

238
00:10:16,733 --> 00:10:18,300
This just a coincidence?

239
00:10:18,343 --> 00:10:20,824
No. It's the same M.O.,

240
00:10:20,868 --> 00:10:22,652
'cause whoever killed that woman

241
00:10:22,695 --> 00:10:25,437
used my crime
to get away with their own.

242
00:10:26,656 --> 00:10:28,658
When the cops picked me
up on another charge,

243
00:10:28,701 --> 00:10:31,182
I was terrified they were
gonna pin that murder on me,

244
00:10:31,226 --> 00:10:33,528
until they arrested
that other guy, Dale.

245
00:10:33,563 --> 00:10:36,057
After that,
I thanked God every day.

246
00:10:36,100 --> 00:10:38,363
I changed my life.

247
00:10:38,407 --> 00:10:40,452
I promised I'd do his work.

248
00:10:40,496 --> 00:10:43,731
By letting an innocent man
take the fall?

249
00:10:44,413 --> 00:10:46,676
- You could've come forward.
- And said what?

250
00:10:46,719 --> 00:10:48,983
"I did the robberies
but not the murder"?

251
00:10:49,026 --> 00:10:50,636
Black man, white woman?

252
00:10:50,680 --> 00:10:52,900
It don't matter if I
had a rock-solid alibi.

253
00:10:52,943 --> 00:10:54,945
I'd never see daylight again.

254
00:10:55,618 --> 00:10:58,819
Okay, so you had
an alibi for then.

255
00:10:58,862 --> 00:11:01,256
What about last night
when Tommy was killed?

256
00:11:01,299 --> 00:11:03,345
I was ministering
in a soup kitchen.

257
00:11:03,751 --> 00:11:06,000
I ain't never
kill nobody.

258
00:11:06,043 --> 00:11:08,916
Not then, not now.

259
00:11:08,959 --> 00:11:11,788
Somebody used my crimes
to get away with murder,

260
00:11:11,832 --> 00:11:13,181
and now they're trying
to make sure

261
00:11:13,224 --> 00:11:14,443
that their secret stays buried.

262
00:11:18,969 --> 00:11:20,884
And we've got officers
posted there as well.

263
00:11:20,928 --> 00:11:22,799
Well, that's good to know.

264
00:11:24,563 --> 00:11:26,934
Well, if it isn't
Detective Dante.

265
00:11:26,977 --> 00:11:29,458
District Attorney Grafton.
Didn't want to interrupt.

266
00:11:29,501 --> 00:11:31,895
I was hoping for a moment
with Judge Cooley

267
00:11:31,939 --> 00:11:34,376
about Dale Aldridge's case.
You were the prosecutor?

268
00:11:34,419 --> 00:11:36,552
We were just discussing
security measures.

269
00:11:36,595 --> 00:11:38,206
And since
he's all out of appeals,

270
00:11:38,249 --> 00:11:39,729
he's got nothing to lose.

271
00:11:39,772 --> 00:11:41,949
I, on the other hand,
have a family.

272
00:11:41,992 --> 00:11:43,776
I've reviewed his phone calls
from prison.

273
00:11:43,820 --> 00:11:46,301
So far, he hasn't made
any direct threats against you

274
00:11:46,344 --> 00:11:48,487
or anyone else
involved in the case.

275
00:11:48,555 --> 00:11:50,566
Hardly a comfort,
given he murdered a woman

276
00:11:50,609 --> 00:11:53,047
in cold blood and just killed
his old cellmate.

277
00:11:53,090 --> 00:11:55,919
I understand. It's just, uh...

278
00:11:56,303 --> 00:11:57,573
What?

279
00:11:57,616 --> 00:12:00,924
Also in those calls, uh,
Dale and Tommy spoke about

280
00:12:00,968 --> 00:12:02,752
finding the real killer.

281
00:12:02,795 --> 00:12:04,623
Sounded like Dale
was looking to clear his name.

282
00:12:04,667 --> 00:12:06,451
I hate to
ask, but...

283
00:12:06,495 --> 00:12:08,236
- Uh, Detective...
- No.

284
00:12:08,279 --> 00:12:09,541
It's fine.

285
00:12:09,585 --> 00:12:11,282
It was a big case,
Detective.

286
00:12:11,326 --> 00:12:14,416
Lots of media attention.
So yes, we looked.

287
00:12:14,459 --> 00:12:16,897
I can assure you,
there was no evidence

288
00:12:16,940 --> 00:12:19,043
it was anyone
other than Dale Aldridge.

289
00:12:19,098 --> 00:12:20,511
WOMAN: Your Honor, we're ready.

290
00:12:20,558 --> 00:12:22,043
Uh, I'm due back in court.

291
00:12:22,093 --> 00:12:24,915
You have any other
questions, please call.

292
00:12:26,701 --> 00:12:28,355
Did you really just
accuse the judge

293
00:12:28,398 --> 00:12:29,542
of putting away
the wrong guy?

294
00:12:29,569 --> 00:12:31,092
I'm a cop, not a lawyer.

295
00:12:31,141 --> 00:12:33,849
- Meaning?
- Not every question is an accusation.

296
00:12:33,874 --> 00:12:35,484
My job is to make sure
the story fits the facts.

297
00:12:35,528 --> 00:12:38,313
By all accounts,
Dale and Tommy were friends.

298
00:12:38,356 --> 00:12:40,358
Doesn't make sense
he'd kill him.

299
00:12:40,402 --> 00:12:42,317
And when I pulled
surveillance,

300
00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:44,754
I saw a stolen car
leaving Tommy's place.

301
00:12:44,798 --> 00:12:46,843
The man in it wasn't Aldridge.

302
00:12:46,887 --> 00:12:49,672
Detective, we have an escaped
killer running around my city.

303
00:12:49,716 --> 00:12:52,849
If you want to chase ghosts, how
about you do it after he's back

304
00:12:52,893 --> 00:12:55,504
behind bars and before
another body drops?

305
00:12:59,819 --> 00:13:02,642
DALE: But it has to
be him. He confessed.

306
00:13:02,685 --> 00:13:05,383
To the break-ins,
not the murders.

307
00:13:05,427 --> 00:13:07,864
I checked Preacher's alibi
from ten years ago

308
00:13:07,908 --> 00:13:09,782
and the night Tommy was killed.

309
00:13:09,825 --> 00:13:11,564
It's not him.

310
00:13:13,566 --> 00:13:16,177
So, what?
This was all pointless?

311
00:13:16,220 --> 00:13:19,267
No. It means the real killer
is still out there.

312
00:13:19,310 --> 00:13:20,877
We just need to find 'em.

313
00:13:20,921 --> 00:13:23,532
How? Th-There's no place
to start.

314
00:13:23,576 --> 00:13:24,707
We start
with the victim.

315
00:13:24,751 --> 00:13:27,754
Carol Walton.
Someone wanted her dead.

316
00:13:27,797 --> 00:13:29,669
We just need to find out who.

317
00:13:29,712 --> 00:13:31,540
After a decade?

318
00:13:31,584 --> 00:13:33,281
You really think

at the victim's house
just prior to her murder.

889
00:36:32,029 --> 00:36:33,595
There is no such statement.

890
00:36:33,620 --> 00:36:35,344
That's because you destroyed it.

891
00:36:35,369 --> 00:36:37,133
Along with a statement
from the victim's friend

892
00:36:37,158 --> 00:36:39,073
that went to motive

893
00:36:39,098 --> 00:36:40,969
and would've helped
the defense.

894
00:36:40,994 --> 00:36:43,344
You're citing documents
that don't exist.

895
00:36:43,369 --> 00:36:46,648
The documents may no longer
exist, but the witnesses do.

896

Which is why, when you learned
that Aldridge had escaped

897
00:36:49,121 --> 00:36:51,776
and was working with Tommy Venti
to find the real killer,

898
00:36:51,801 --> 00:36:53,411
you dismissed charges

against a street thug
named Trent Sawyer

900
00:36:54,854 --> 00:36:56,769

Tommy and the defendant.

No. No, I...

902

We just took Sawyer
into custody.

903

It's why I was
running late.
