Okay, this is it.

We're broadcasting on WQTI,

streaming on WQTI.org.

The name of our live podcast
is Justice Denied.

Our guest is Jeffrey Durning,

distinguished heart surgeon,
philanthropist,

and defendant in one of the most
sensational murder trials

of the decade.

Thank you for having me on, Kathy.

Please, give me a break.

You know they can't hear you, right?

I must admit, I feel a little strange.

The last time we saw each other
was a year ago in the courtroom

when I was prosecuting you
for killing your wife Beth.

I'm glad you had
the courage to re-examine

the evidence and come to
a more honest conclusion,

which is more than I can say

for some of your former colleagues.

Yeah, well, if he's so honest,

how come you're hiding from us,

and telling your story on the
air instead of in a courtroom?

The first trial ended in a hung jury,

the Manhattan D.A.'s office
is coming after you again?

And you dumped her body
from a plane over the Atlantic?

Obviously, the office has had a series

of high-profile disasters.

They're looking for
a rich, white man's scalp

to make up for them.

Of course, now we have my old friend

Erin Reagan saying she has new evidence,

but like your wife's body,
no one has seen it.

Police!
Come on, out of the way.

Move! Get out of the way.

It looks like

we have some surprise guests joining us.

We're gonna take a break.

Where is he?

Obviously not on the premises.

My God, I hate these things!

Aren't they supposed to shut off
after three minutes?

It's an older model; I guess
the guy didn't get the message.

Or that he needs to move
the car for street cleaning.

How long has it been here?

A couple days at least, right?

Excuse me, ma'am!

You know whose car this is?

Hey, handsome.

What's it worth to you?

Well... My tenant, Harry Clark.

I keep telling him he needs a new car.

I know he can afford it.

Would you have him come down?

I would, if I'd seen him lately.

Ma'am, do you notice that
smell inside your apartment?

No.

But my nose stopped working years ago.

Too much fun in the '70s.

You know what I'm saying.

Come we come take a look?

Sure. Come on in.

Ma'am, can you please wait outside?

Eddie, he's in here.

He's ripe.

It's been a few days?

Poor Harry.

Ma'am, I asked you to wait outside.

Is this Harry Clark, ma'am?

Yeah.

Although, come to think of it,

I'm not sure that's his real name.

What do you mean?

I never saw a bank check
with his name on it.

Always paid the rent in cash.

And some of his mail came
with different names on it.

Do you have a next of kin we can contact?

No. No one ever
visited him.

Eddie, see if you can find some Vicks.

The smell's starting to get to me.

I may have some.
Thank you, ma'am.

We're all set, thank you.

Well, if you need me
for anything, just call me.

And, you, just call me.

Okay.

Good to see you, Nick.
You're looking well.

Thank you. You, too.

Thanks for this.

Yeah.

How's the family?

Good.

Yours?
Grown up and out.

Your son, kind of a hothead,
whatever happened to him?

Detective, first grade.

And the other one, going to Harvard?

On the job as well,

and my daughter Erin
works for the D.A.'s office.

It's nice having a family business?

It is.

You know, Frank, when I heard
that you got your father's job,

I was happy to hear that.

They gave it to the right man.

Thank you.

Tyrell Dawes, come on in.

Sit down.

You know why you're here?

My parole officer said
I should come by here,

but I didn't have to by law.

This is your Offender Notification Forum.

We hold them for people
who just got out of prison

with a high risk of going back.

Come on, man, what do
you got, a crystal ball?

You're a gang member
who just did three and a half

for committing a robbery with a handgun

in New York City.

What do you got, an extra
eight-by-ten for my moms?

Turn it over.

What's "15" mean?

That's the number of years you'll do

if you commit another crime with a gun.

And that's a hard number;

There won't be any pleading it down.

It's up to you, Tyrell.

None of y'all know me.

None of y'all know where
I been or where I'm going.

Yeah, we do.

You want to tell him or should I?

May I?

I am here for
the same reason that you are,

because the commissioner
asked me to be here,

and because I just finished
a 20-year bid of my own

in the state prison.

I could still be in that prison.

I killed someone
who threatened my family.

Commissioner Reagan, who at that time

was Detective Reagan,
he could've buried me.

But he didn't.

He gave me a fair shake.

So... I'd listen to him.

Man, is this real?

Every word.

Look at this.

They're all $100 bills.

There's got to be tens of
thousands of dollars in here.

Eddie, I wouldn't be touching that.

"Dear Sandi, I am so sorry
about everything.

Maybe the rest of this money
will help."

What's he got to be sorry for?

Yeah, and who was he?

What do we got?

Four wounded.
One serious and likely to die.

Shootout inside the diner.

One of the rounds went
through the front window.

The likely is an Alex Kalamogdartis.

Kala-what?

I don't know, it's Greek.

Okay, what about the other three vics?

And the third was a 12-year-old
boy walking by outside

with his family.

Okay, so we got a gang war at
a greasy spoon. Any witnesses?

Well, no one's talking about
why it jumped off tonight.

We do know this Alex
may have had a dispute.

Any actual witnesses to the shooting?

Not so much.
Hey, boss.

Everyone's saying how it was
too dark to see anything.

Too dark in a brightly lit diner?

Well, they've been renting it out

as pop-up nightclub
sometimes.

The current owner is over there,

Stavros Constantine.

Hey, Stavros.

Hey! Want to tell us
what this is about?

I mean, I have no idea.

We've never had any trouble
on club nights before.

Well, can't imagine
people shooting your place up

if all you're doing is serving moussaka.

Listen, I'm as confused as you are, okay?

Making sure we got enough
champagne for bottle service,

bang, bang, bang, it's all hell
is breaking loose.

So you're trying to tell us

you don't know anything
about this Alex Kala-what?

Mogdartis.

Kalamogdartis.
Yeah, yeah, of course.

Of course I know Alex Kalamogdartis.

It's like the Trojan War
with our families.

What's that mean?

He's been trying to take over our diner.

To a lot of local businesses;
He's a thug.

And you have no idea who shot him.

I'm afraid I-I can't help you.

Can't or won't?

Okay, well, we're gonna assume

that you don't have a cabaret license

for this little nightclub of yours,

so here's what we're gonna do.

You're gonna get your hands
out of your pocket,

and then you're gonna
take a ride with us.

See if that jogs
your memory. Come on.

So what?

Now that the supervisors
have been and gone,

we just have to sit here,

safeguard the place until
the public administrator

comes and starts to try to make
inventory of all this?

Real-life police work, Eddie.

It's not all paperwork and donuts.

You know, we turned over
a lot of money yesterday,

and there's still no next of kin.

Some of this junk lying around
might be worth something.

Bosses just want us to keep an eye on it

till things get settled.

Yeah, well, hey, can we
open a window, please?

The guy's gone, but that stink is

very much still here.

You know,

Harry must have been
hiding from something.

Or someone.

Sounds like he's been
locked up in this apartment

the last 25 years.

Hey, Jamie, do you remember

the New York Benefactors' Trust robbery?

1992, $21 million stolen.

Yeah, biggest heist
in the city's history.

Most of it never recovered.

Keep finding all these clippings
that Harry kept about it.

Jamie, you don't think...

Should we order first or argue first?

I'm happy to get business out of the way.

We have an arrest warrant
for Jeffrey Durning,

and I want to know where he is.

What if I told you I don't know?

Except that he's somewhere in Europe.

I wouldn't believe you.

This isn't about me.

It's about the facts of the case.

Right after the trial,

I started hearing from witnesses
that Beth might still be alive.

She was a very unstable woman, Erin.

We are going to retry this case.

We just need him back in custody.

Obviously, you're worried
about losing this case

in a court of public opinion
before it goes to trial.

If you have new evidence,

why don't you come on my show
to talk about it?

How about this?

I have you subpoenaed and
brought before the grand jury,

and if you don't answer the
questions, I will ask the judge

to hold you in contempt.

You'll never win.

Classic First Amendment case.

But I don't have to tell you that, do I?

Good luck, Erin.

I guess I wasn't all that hungry anyway.

But maybe you are.

You weren't 100% honest with us
last night, were you?

What do you mean?

Breakfast, lunch and dinner on the menu.

Alex K is a known drug dealer.

He came to your place with a beef.

That if we bring the dogs in,
they're not gonna find anything?

I'm no drug dealer.

Okay, well, maybe you wouldn't
let him sell drugs in your club,

and that's why he had a beef.

Come on, help me understand here.

Finally got a couple
of witness statements

and a photo from a parking lot camera.

Good work.

What's up?

You know, I'm thinking,
if you didn't fire the shots,

then you definitely know who did.

Who's this?

I don't know.

You want to keep your business?

And give me an honest answer this time.

Come on.

Come on! Who is it?!

It's my father.

Nick Constantine

is hardly a friend;
I arrested him once.

Not just that.

Your testimony at his trial...

Was entirely truthful.

And helpful to the defense.

And now that same person

was present, arguably
with motive, at the scene

of a shooting and can't be found.

We give him a head start? No, boss.

Then what's your point?

That old media has
handed down the perception

that you pulled punches
when you testified at his trial.

And two days ago, he was at your side

at an Offender's Notification Forum

in the role of model ex-con.

I tell you what,
you manage the perception,

I'll manage my department.

Less than a month ago,
you came out strong

against the mayor's Fresh Start program.

This isn't that.

Not your call, all due respect.

That you've put your eggs
in the Nick Constantine basket.

A man does a wrong thing
once in his life,

in this case, for the right reason.

That believes that there can,
in fact, be a chance

for a second act in people's lives.

Any idea where he's headed?

We're tracking friends,
cell records and credit cards,

but after 20 years,

he doesn't have that much
of a network to plug into.

Which means he can't be that far.

Let's make it clear

that we're devoting all our resources

to hunting him down
and making sure he pays.

In other words, grandstand
before all the facts are in.

Is he even the prime suspect?

Well, he's more than
a person of interest.

Then let's just find him.

Yeah. Yeah, thanks.

Public administrator's
gonna be another day.

They are backed up and understaffed.

Well, Jamie, I just found more cash.

Shouldn't we tell

major case this could all be connected

to that bank robbery?

I already put a call in.

It's no longer an active investigation.

All the robbers are either

dead or in prison,
and the bank went under.

We got no reason to think
that Harry was involved

other than the clippings.

This cash could be legitimate.

Well, then where did
all the money come from?

Doesn't look like this guy's had a job

in a really long time.

And why all this dog stuff and no dog?

Hey, we just walked in your
apartment, what would we find?

Some laundry that needs to be folded,

couple unpaid bills, maybe
something in the DVD player

I'd rather nobody find out.

Really?

The Little Mermaid.

Jamie, I don't know.

Part of me thinks this could be
an integrity test by IAB

to see what we would actually do.

Do you know how crazy that sounds?

Can I help you?

Officer Jamie Reagan?

You left a message for me.

About Harry Clark.

I'm Sandi Harper.

This is my grandson, David.

You knew him?
He was a friend?

I knew him.

I wouldn't say he was a friend exactly.

He just sent me money.

Mindy, I don't know what this is.

You gave us a statement
that Jeffrey told you

and now you're just
trying to take it back?

Jeffrey came to visit me the other night.

At my apartment.

He's still in town?

He heard that I was helping you

and telling you the things
that he said about Beth

and how she disappeared.

Did he say how he heard?

It sounded like he had a source
that knew people at this office.

He said that I could disappear, too.

Just like Beth.

He directly threatened you?

He made it clear
that it wouldn't be good for me.

He called me his little shark bait.

Like it was a joke.

And then he left.

He thinks you guys will never find him.

I understand you're scared,
but we need your testimony.

Otherwise, he's gonna go out
and do this to someone else.

Seriously?
Like this is my fault?

I tried to tell you people
about this before,

and you wouldn't believe me.

You tried to tell who?

The prosecutor
who had this case before you.

Kathy Elliott.

Traffic camera last spotted Nick's car

at this intersection.

You see anything yet?

This is it.

This is the car Nick was driving.

He could be hiding out,
and he chooses a diner?

Well, it makes sense.

He's probably hungry,
doesn't have a lot of cash.

Like a married guy who divorces his wife,

then marries the same kind of girl.

Shouldn't we call it in

and wait for backup?
No.

We're not gonna let him
run out on the check this time.

You go that way.

Excuse me.
I need you to follow me.

Nick Constantine.

How the hell you been?

Remind me.

Danny Reagan.

Think you know my old man.

Right, Danny.

The hothead.

How you doing?

Maybe we should talk outside.

Why would I do that?

Everybody out of the diner.
Let's go.

Let's go. Come on. Come on.

You know, Danny, at my age...

I'm not going back to prison.

We can do this the hard way if you want.

But I think you might've caused

enough pain for your family already.

If... if I come with you, quietly...

it's on one condition.

I'm listening.

I talk to Frank.

Nobody else.

Just Frank.

I'll see what I could do.

What's the old man doing?

Talk to him.

I got word your suspect
wanted to speak to me.

Yeah, he asked.

And I didn't say yes.

Why not?

I don't typically offer up
the commissioner's time

as part of my deals.

I'd like to make an exception
in this instance.

Well, since when do you come down here

because a suspect asked you to?

Can't think of the last time I did.

Look, I know he's your collar,

and you certainly don't
need my help, Detective.

You're as good as I got, but...

he was my collar first.

I have to know.

Well, he's in the box.

It might be better
if I talked to him in here.

Okay.

Thank you.

By the way, the gun we found on him

does match the one used in the murder.

The coffee at our diner used to
be the best coffee in the city.

There's no chain places,

one supplier for all
of the diners in town.

No special bean that
comes out of a cat's ass.

I didn't come down here
to reminisce about coffee.

Alex Kalamogdartis.

He was not a nice young man, Frank.

Well, he died this morning.

And "not nice" is not grounds

for a justifiable homicide, Nick.

Come on, the kid had a record
as long as the old man.

I know that.

Tell me what happened.

I got nothing to tell.

I'm at my family restaurant,

celebrating my freedom.

In walks the kid.

Hot and bothered, stirring up trouble.

Just like his old man.

Next thing I know, bodies are falling.

Who fired the shots?

I don't know;
It was dark, it was crowded,

music was loud.

Why do we have

this picture of you leaving with the gun?

I wasn't thinking, Frank.

I panicked when I saw
the gun on the floor.

All I could think was
I got to get it out of here.

You got a problem,
or does the problem have you?

You trying to cover for somebody?

Like, maybe you got used to life inside,

had it wired pretty good.

You're dead wrong.

I'm not covering for anybody.

Right, and you have no idea
who the shooter was

in your own restaurant,
with your own people around.

Nobody saw nothing.

Where was your boy when this happened?

In the back.

Who with?
I don't know.

I gave you the benefit of the doubt once.

You owe me the truth.

I paid my debt to the State of New York.

20 years.

I gave it 20 years of my life.

I don't owe anybody anything else.

Not good enough.

Start over.

That's Harry.

With my late husband David.

Two of them were thick as thieves.

Drinking and gambling every
night at the Old Bluff.

Sandi, you said that you weren't
friends with Harry,

but he kept sending you money.

Why?

I don't know.

Maybe he felt sorry for me

because I had to raise
my grandson on my own.

The child has special needs.

And he was doing well
in the program I sent him to.

That school they had him in?

Full of screamers and head bangers.

How much was Harry sending?

Are you gonna tell the IRS?

No.

Never more than ten grand.

Every few months.

Now the program says
David can't come back

until I pay the next bill.

Sandi, I hate to ask you this,

but that's a lot of money for
a guy that didn't have a job.

Do you know anything about
Harry's involvement

in the Benny Trust heist?

That's where my husband worked.

What did he do there?

He was a guard.

The guard who got killed in the robbery?

The bank got their money back
from the insurance,

and then went under before
they paid our benefits

like they promised.

Harry was the only one
looking out for us.

Did you ever ask where he got the cash?

But I knew something
was eating him inside.

And they always said

the robbers must have had an inside tip.

You think Harry was the conduit,

because he was drinking buddies
with your husband?

He sure acted guilty around me.

You think he got a cut afterward?

I don't know.

I needed the money.

For my grandson.

I guess you got a judgment about that?

I don't know what to think.

So what happens now?

Hey, Reagan.

What the hell do you want?

I heard you had my father here.

Yeah. Well, unless you got
something new to offer

that you held back on before,

there's nothing you can
do to help him now.

Wait.

I think you're gonna want to hear this.

Okay.

Come on.

We're good to go?

GPS is working.

We good with the warrant?
Just in time.

Judge says,
"Kathy's her own worst enemy."

If she wasn't pushing this...

A live video interview
to drive up ratings...

We wouldn't have probable cause
she was meeting with Jeffrey.

There she is.

Can't believe she's doing this.

She was one of the best trial
lawyers I ever worked with.

One thing about Kathy,
she was always more about

the attention than the case.

Let's go.

Please, don't complain
about the driving today.

No promises.

My father's the strongest man I know.

I could never be like him.

Okay.

He did 20 years in state prison,

and he never complained about the food.

After being in the restaurant business.

No, he... he deserves
to have his life back.

He only just met his granddaughter.

I'm sure this is all going someplace.

When Alex Kalamogdartis

came in the other night
and started threatening him,

So you're saying you were
there during the argument.

Yes, yes.

I'm sorry that I lied before.

Like I said, I'm not as strong as Papa.

Okay, we've moved past that.

So you heard Alex threaten
your dad, then what did you do?

I went, I went and I got my cousin's gun

from under the cash register.

And then what?

And then I just started shooting.

And shooting and shooting
and shooting and shooting!

After it was done,

Papa took the gun and told me
to keep my mouth shut.

Okay.
I did it.

I'm gonna need you to
write that all down, okay?

My father's still got a
few good years left.

I can't let him go back to
prison for something that I did.

You want a lawyer?

Now? Seriously?

Yeah. It's my right.
I didn't shoot the kid.

You got no right to keep me here.

You asked for me.

And now you want a lawyer?

It's done.

He confessed.

Full statement?

Signed, sealed and delivered.

Good work.

Stavros... In English.

Papa, I'm sorry.
Don't do this.

- I already did.
- No, you didn't.

I shot him, Papa.

He didn't give me a choice.

Take him down to Central Booking.

Yes, sir. Come on.
Wait a minute.

Wait a minute!
Wait a minute!

I don't think you're gonna
let him do this, Nick.

You're not a perfect man,
but you love your family

and you love your son.

It's how it had to be, Frank.

Otherwise, those people
were never gonna let us be.

Ready to make a statement?

Yes, I am.

We got the cuffs on the wrong man.

Nice ride.
Smart.

Jeffrey knew we'd be looking for him

at the airfields, so he's
all set to get away by land.

Well, I guess looking back,
I could've seen the signs.

Beth was always a little flighty.

That was part of the energy
that drew me to her.

She started disappearing for

longer and longer periods of time.

And then one night,
she just didn't come back.

You two, sit down.

And shut that off.

On your feet, Doc.
Come on.

Come on!

Looks like this interview is over, Kathy.

Jeffrey Durning, we have
a warrant for your arrest.

We also have a warrant for yo arrest.

For what?

You lied to us about where he was,

and you're assisting a fugitive.

Wait.

There's something you need to see

that changes this whole case.

Really?

This... was taken in Caracas

two days ago by a friend of Beth's.

She's still alive.

Hey.

Hey. Put the brisket
in the fridge.

I got us a bottle of wine;
We're in business.

Do you remember the Benny Trust heist?

Sure I do.

Happened when I was PC.

We always heard that
it was an inside job,

but we could never prove it.

Most of the thieves killed each other

before they could
spend the money. Why?

Just a hypothetical,
but what if I told you

that I found some of the money?

You're taking us to Peter
Luger's for family dinner.

Seriously, it's a closed case, isn't it?

No, the term is "not an
active investigation."

Big difference.

Let's just say a couple of partners

stumble on a bundle of cash
in a dead man's apartment.

Well, if they take it for themselves,

they're out of a job and
maybe on their way to prison.

Let's just say though that
they've made all the right calls

and turns out
nobody's looking for that money,

but it's clear that the dead guy

wanted to leave it to somebody
who really needed it.

He died without leaving a will?

Yeah.

Well, then it goes to
the public administrator.

What if they just don't find all of it?

Well, then these partners
have an interesting dilemma.

A few years before the heist,

I was up in the Bronx
for the Big Blackout.

The looting was insane.

We were locking up people
left, right and center.

Someone had broken the front window

of a store that charged
the most ridiculous prices.

I saw a lady my age,
with three little kids,

carrying out a bag
full of diapers and groceries.

I looked her straight in the eye...

and I let her go.

I made a judgment call.

Every good cop's
got to be able to make one.

Not that we're talking about
anything real here.

You sure this is okay?

The public administrators
are already done.

You're the closest thing
to a family friend.

We're just giving you
a chance to pick out

some clothes for Harry, for the funeral.

No one else is coming?

He had no will, no heirs.

Just the letter to you.

So, we'll give you an hour.

Whatever you leave behind
goes to the landlady

or the-the
clean-out company.

Make sure you look everywhere...
The cupboards, the closets...

under the bed.

I'm still not sure about this.

Public administrators
got most of the cash

that was just lying around.

We both know there's more.

And no one's looking for it.

Sandi needs that money
to keep her grandson

in that special school.

Just doesn't feel right.

What if someone starts
asking questions later?

Guess you'll have to decide
if you're gonna rat me out.

I can't believe you had me
arrested on felony charges.

Well, you knew where Jeffrey Durning was

and you chose to mislead us
and protect him.

The flaw in your argument

is that there is no underlying crime.

Really?

I've given you proof.

You mean that picture from Venezuela?

It kind of blows the whole case
out of the water, Anthony,

doesn't it?
One little problem.

I just got off the phone
with the guy in the photo.

He's five-foot-six.

Beth was five-foot-ten.

And in the photo,
she's looking up at him.

How's a woman who's four inches taller

appearing shorter?

Obviously, it would be tough.

I'd say.

Doesn't mean I'm wrong about everything.

You're just trying to neutralize me

because you're afraid
the former prosecutor

is gonna make Jeffrey's defense
a slam dunk.

What about all the witnesses
Jeffrey intimidated?

Their stories didn't hold up.

Then why did Jeffrey go to
Mindy's apartment the other day

and threaten her?

He's worried the truth will come out.

I had no idea he'd done this.

You let your ego get ahead
of the facts in this case,

and you've been poisoning
the jury pool with your podcast.

I thought I had a subject
who was innocent.

Is it safe to say

that you could've
handled things differently?

I'll give you what I have
on Jeffrey from my files.

Bless us, Lord, in these thy gifts,

which we are about to
receive from thy bounty

through Christ our Lord. Amen.

Amen.

The prodigal son.

Better late than never.

I texted Erin I was
running a little behind.

He did.

Where were you?

Funeral.

Whose?

Just a guy.

You know him well?

No.

Actually didn't know him at all.

Turns out, nobody really did.

What's that mean?

Means he barely came out of his house

or spoke to anyone for 25 years,
and passed away

without anyone really wondering
where he went.

That may be one of the saddest
things I've ever heard.

How deep did you dig?

Just a few days sitting with
his stuff and waiting for

the public administrators to show.

Did he have something to hide,
something he was hiding from?

At least not under
any of the names that we had.

Well, maybe he never got caught;
Couldn't forgive himself.

Any more of this,

and I'm gonna have to go back to church

and pray for his poor soul.
Right?

So you actually went to the funeral

for someone you never met?

Yeah.

Ever done that before?

Nope. Just felt like I should.

That's it?

Yeah, kind of hard to explain.

At least for me it is.

Wow, you give this family
half an opportunity,

and the questions just don't stop.

Sorry I brought it up.

Nicky, boys,

you hear a lot of harsh stories
at this table.

I don't think they're harsh.

Cool, maybe.

Okay, ear of the beholder.

But if there's one thing
you need to take away

from this table, I hope
it's that you don't have to be.

Jamie's age, or Danny's or Erin's

or mine or Pop's for that matter,

to learn to show some grace
where it's needed.

To save some grace for strangers even,

who find themselves
without family or friends.

Or whatever reason got them there.

Will do.
Me, too.

I'll try.

I'd like to think
the reward is in the attempt.

Well, the good news is,

none of us is ever gonna end up alone.

Not while another one
of us is still standing.

And again, amen.
