1
00:00:01,121 --> 00:00:03,146
In the criminal
justice system
2
00:00:03,223 --> 00:00:07,024
the people are represented by two
separate yet equally important groups:
3
00:00:07,094 --> 00:00:08,925
The police
who investigate crime,
4
00:00:08,996 --> 00:00:11,760
and the district attorneys
who prosecute the offenders.
5
00:00:11,832 --> 00:00:13,561
These are their stories.
6
00:00:14,168 --> 00:00:16,364
Those ticket agents.
A $4.50 service charge
7
00:00:16,438 --> 00:00:18,166
and they stick us
way in the back.
8
00:00:18,239 --> 00:00:20,707
Well, at least
the music was wonderful.
9
00:00:20,775 --> 00:00:22,572
I thought the strings
were a bit shrill.
10
00:00:23,711 --> 00:00:25,509
And the adagio?
11
00:00:31,453 --> 00:00:33,284
Hmm. That tuna fish
I threw out,
12
00:00:33,355 --> 00:00:35,517
would you... would you
put it out into the hall?
13
00:00:35,591 --> 00:00:36,580
Mmm-hmm.
14
00:00:39,529 --> 00:00:40,518
And open a window
15
00:00:40,596 --> 00:00:42,393
so that we both
don't die of the stench.
16
00:00:42,465 --> 00:00:46,061
Hello, Doris. Why wouldn't
I know who it was?
17
00:00:46,870 --> 00:00:50,032
I can't go to the corner store
without you calling.
18
00:00:50,139 --> 00:00:52,107
Lincoln Center. Mozart.
19
00:00:52,875 --> 00:00:55,071
Frankly, Masur was
not in very good shape,
20
00:00:55,145 --> 00:00:56,772
arriving when he did.
21
00:00:56,847 --> 00:00:58,314
I was very disappointed.
22
00:00:58,382 --> 00:01:00,179
However, I'd love to meet...
23
00:01:01,452 --> 00:01:02,612
Lisa.
Mmm-hmm.
24
00:01:02,686 --> 00:01:04,621
Is your aunt still up?
Mmm-hmm.
25
00:01:04,689 --> 00:01:06,953
She forgot to sign
her rent check again.
26
00:01:07,158 --> 00:01:08,819
I'll take it in to her.
27
00:01:14,533 --> 00:01:15,761
Except I thought
28
00:01:15,835 --> 00:01:18,065
he was a little off
every once in a while.
29
00:01:22,373 --> 00:01:23,671
Looks like she caught it
30
00:01:23,743 --> 00:01:25,005
heading for the side entrance.
31
00:01:25,077 --> 00:01:26,772
Something wrong
with the front door?
32
00:01:26,846 --> 00:01:28,108
Courtyard's all the way around.
33
00:01:28,180 --> 00:01:29,613
Neighbors say
it's safer this way.
34
00:01:29,682 --> 00:01:31,047
Most nights.
35
00:01:33,487 --> 00:01:36,615
Kathleen Susan McKenna.
$30 and change.
36
00:01:36,690 --> 00:01:38,817
University student ID.
37
00:01:38,892 --> 00:01:40,689
She can forget
about her midterms.
38
00:01:40,761 --> 00:01:42,251
Found a scarf
just down the alley.
39
00:01:42,329 --> 00:01:44,764
Ligature marks are consistent
with the neck wound.
40
00:01:44,832 --> 00:01:47,767
You check this wall?
Blood. Tissue.
41
00:01:47,835 --> 00:01:49,393
I have a feeling
it's the victim's.
42
00:01:49,470 --> 00:01:50,835
Got it.
Witnesses over there.
43
00:01:50,905 --> 00:01:52,166
Thanks.
44
00:01:56,077 --> 00:01:58,272
I'm Det. Logan,
this is Det. Briscoe.
45
00:01:58,346 --> 00:01:59,813
You ladies saw something?
46
00:01:59,881 --> 00:02:01,473
If you're expecting
a description,
47
00:02:01,549 --> 00:02:02,573
you can forget it.
48
00:02:02,651 --> 00:02:04,949
With my cataracts,
I can barely see you.
49
00:02:05,020 --> 00:02:06,146
Was it some transient?
50
00:02:06,255 --> 00:02:08,416
Kathleen McKenna.
Know her?
51
00:02:08,590 --> 00:02:11,024
Kathy? Oh, no.
52
00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:14,093
She lived on the third floor.
A lovely girl.
53
00:02:14,164 --> 00:02:16,098
Well, maybe
you remember something now?
54
00:02:16,166 --> 00:02:19,795
Well, I... I remember voices,
but, uh, disconnected.
55
00:02:19,869 --> 00:02:21,234
I couldn't tell who.
56
00:02:21,304 --> 00:02:24,034
When I opened the window
I saw a man and woman
57
00:02:24,107 --> 00:02:25,734
at the end
of the alley, signir.
58
00:02:25,809 --> 00:02:26,969
Signing?
59
00:02:27,043 --> 00:02:30,774
Oh, It must have been her.
Kathy McKenna was deaf.
60
00:03:55,805 --> 00:03:58,433
My late husband was blind.
Shrapnel in Korea.
61
00:03:58,508 --> 00:03:59,599
After he died,
62
00:03:59,675 --> 00:04:01,234
I decided to rent
to the handicapped.
63
00:04:01,311 --> 00:04:03,176
As a gesture, you know?
Mmm-hmm.
64
00:04:03,246 --> 00:04:06,181
And what kind of tenant
was Miss McKenna?
65
00:04:06,249 --> 00:04:07,682
She moved in about a year ago.
66
00:04:07,751 --> 00:04:09,116
Never a problem.
67
00:04:09,219 --> 00:04:11,279
Okay, Miss Chandler.
Uh, if we need you,
68
00:04:11,355 --> 00:04:13,687
we'll give you a call.
Thank you very much.
69
00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:18,560
Landlady's a wash.
She paid her rent.
70
00:04:19,130 --> 00:04:20,826
I'm surprised
she found the time.
71
00:04:22,401 --> 00:04:24,926
Wow! Popular girl, huh?
72
00:04:25,003 --> 00:04:26,937
Detective, we've got
a Ben Freed out here.
73
00:04:27,005 --> 00:04:28,233
He says he's the boyfriend.
74
00:04:28,307 --> 00:04:29,331
He's been told.
75
00:04:29,408 --> 00:04:30,932
Yeah. Send him in.
76
00:04:35,447 --> 00:04:36,675
This is all my fault.
77
00:04:36,748 --> 00:04:37,840
Take it easy.
78
00:04:37,916 --> 00:04:39,543
We were supposed
to go out last night.
79
00:04:39,618 --> 00:04:41,109
I should have been with her.
80
00:04:41,187 --> 00:04:43,246
Well, what happened?
Did she break the date?
81
00:04:43,623 --> 00:04:46,114
She had to see somebody.
She didn't say who.
82
00:04:46,526 --> 00:04:48,255
God, I told her
a thousand times.
83
00:04:48,328 --> 00:04:49,920
At night, take a cab.
84
00:04:49,996 --> 00:04:51,328
A thousand times.
85
00:04:51,398 --> 00:04:52,831
Sounds like
she was your steady.
86
00:04:52,967 --> 00:04:55,231
We'd been going out
a couple of months.
87
00:04:56,136 --> 00:04:57,763
All my friends
said the same thing.
88
00:04:57,838 --> 00:05:00,603
"She's deaf.
Don't rush into anything."
89
00:05:01,509 --> 00:05:04,443
But we loved each other.
We had plans.
90
00:05:04,511 --> 00:05:07,503
After she broke the date,
you make a new plan?
91
00:05:08,182 --> 00:05:09,581
The library.
92
00:05:10,318 --> 00:05:13,515
L... I was studying
for exams until closing.
93
00:05:15,056 --> 00:05:16,045
God.
94
00:05:16,691 --> 00:05:18,488
No jewelry taken, no money.
95
00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:20,995
Forensics checking out
blood and tissue samples.
96
00:05:21,063 --> 00:05:22,325
But I wouldn't hold my breath.
97
00:05:22,398 --> 00:05:23,888
Your basic crime of passion.
98
00:05:23,966 --> 00:05:25,695
Person or persons unknown.
99
00:05:25,901 --> 00:05:27,266
Probably singular.
100
00:05:27,336 --> 00:05:29,532
We got a witness says
she saw a man and a woman
101
00:05:29,606 --> 00:05:31,801
signing near the alley
right before it went down.
102
00:05:31,875 --> 00:05:33,775
Well, what about
the boyfriend, he sign?
103
00:05:33,844 --> 00:05:35,140
He said he was just learning.
104
00:05:35,211 --> 00:05:37,111
Calls it one of
the world's great romances.
105
00:05:37,179 --> 00:05:39,170
Well, he bought that
she was seeing a friend,
106
00:05:39,249 --> 00:05:40,238
so maybe it was.
107
00:05:40,317 --> 00:05:42,046
After just two months?
108
00:05:42,119 --> 00:05:44,019
Nobody is that secure.
You call the library?
109
00:05:44,087 --> 00:05:46,612
Yeah, last night.
Freed checked out
110
00:05:47,324 --> 00:05:50,260
Henry Miller's
Tropic of Cancer and Nexus.
111
00:05:50,361 --> 00:05:52,124
The lonely guy's reading list.
112
00:05:52,196 --> 00:05:55,029
Fellows, there's
a Mr. And Mrs. McKenna here.
113
00:05:56,701 --> 00:05:58,931
That's Kathy's cousin, Eugene.
114
00:05:59,238 --> 00:06:00,296
I took that
115
00:06:00,372 --> 00:06:02,966
while he was visiting
from Tacoma last summer.
116
00:06:07,078 --> 00:06:08,842
This is Ben Freed.
117
00:06:08,914 --> 00:06:10,381
Kathy was seeing him.
118
00:06:11,216 --> 00:06:13,411
She talked about him
all the time.
119
00:06:15,854 --> 00:06:19,313
That one.
That's Paul Crandall.
120
00:06:19,793 --> 00:06:21,226
He's deaf, too.
121
00:06:22,595 --> 00:06:24,756
Kathy and Paul used to see
a lot of each other
122
00:06:24,831 --> 00:06:26,890
when she first
moved to the city.
123
00:06:27,567 --> 00:06:29,798
But they werert that serious.
124
00:06:31,005 --> 00:06:33,473
Most of these,
I'm sure they're just pals.
125
00:06:35,409 --> 00:06:37,536
If somebody
was giving her trouble,
126
00:06:37,610 --> 00:06:39,078
would she have told you?
127
00:06:40,314 --> 00:06:41,781
I'd hope so.
128
00:06:42,416 --> 00:06:44,475
Kathy was independent.
129
00:06:45,586 --> 00:06:47,645
We brought her up that way.
130
00:06:48,256 --> 00:06:51,453
She even talked about
getting a cochlear implant.
131
00:06:51,726 --> 00:06:54,160
She was told she
was a good candidate for it.
132
00:06:54,262 --> 00:06:56,890
It's a device
inserted behind the ear.
133
00:06:57,732 --> 00:06:59,963
If it worked, it would have
134
00:07:00,403 --> 00:07:03,964
allowed her to hear sound,
vibrations.
135
00:07:06,142 --> 00:07:07,837
We took her to specialists.
136
00:07:07,911 --> 00:07:09,208
"Put her in a deaf school."
137
00:07:09,278 --> 00:07:11,041
"Don't put her
in a deaf school."
138
00:07:12,415 --> 00:07:14,679
We just wanted her to be happy.
139
00:07:19,156 --> 00:07:21,488
If you want to identify
these other photos,
140
00:07:22,259 --> 00:07:24,625
you should
talk to Corrine Sussman.
141
00:07:26,663 --> 00:07:29,030
Kathy used to
room with her at university.
142
00:07:35,673 --> 00:07:36,867
Sure, Kathy had boyfriends.
143
00:07:36,941 --> 00:07:38,466
The problem
was with her hearing,
144
00:07:38,544 --> 00:07:39,977
not the rest of her.
145
00:07:40,045 --> 00:07:41,602
Well, uh,
last time you noticed,
146
00:07:41,679 --> 00:07:43,374
uh, who was leading the pack?
147
00:07:44,182 --> 00:07:47,846
Ben. Those two
were positively chemical.
148
00:07:48,187 --> 00:07:49,814
As in combustible?
149
00:07:50,055 --> 00:07:51,682
They'd argue.
Who doesn't?
150
00:07:51,824 --> 00:07:53,485
Kathy had a mind of her own.
151
00:07:54,727 --> 00:07:56,319
God, it's so sad.
152
00:07:56,395 --> 00:07:58,990
I can't believe I'm already
referring to her in the past tense.
153
00:07:59,065 --> 00:08:00,464
What about Paul Crandall?
154
00:08:00,534 --> 00:08:01,899
How past tense was he?
155
00:08:01,968 --> 00:08:04,266
Oh, Paul was the kind
of guy you go out with once
156
00:08:04,337 --> 00:08:05,702
because you feel sorry for him
157
00:08:05,772 --> 00:08:07,604
and then it's "how do
you get rid of him?"
158
00:08:07,675 --> 00:08:09,074
He wanted her
strictly to himself.
159
00:08:09,143 --> 00:08:11,043
I remember once
they were going to a lecture
160
00:08:11,112 --> 00:08:12,908
and Kathy asked
if I wanted to come along.
161
00:08:12,979 --> 00:08:15,174
Paul freaked.
He said it was for the deaf.
162
00:08:15,248 --> 00:08:16,579
Like I'd contaminate the place.
163
00:08:16,650 --> 00:08:17,982
Kathy let him have it.
164
00:08:18,052 --> 00:08:20,418
So Kathy was
more open-minded?
165
00:08:21,923 --> 00:08:23,948
You know that
Audrey Hepburn film, Sabrina?
166
00:08:24,025 --> 00:08:26,016
It was Kathy's favorite.
167
00:08:26,093 --> 00:08:28,585
She wanted to be just like
the character in the movie.
168
00:08:28,664 --> 00:08:30,689
"In the world
and of the world."
169
00:08:30,766 --> 00:08:33,599
What about when Paul and her
werert attending lectures?
170
00:08:33,702 --> 00:08:35,101
You mean,
did she sleep with him?
171
00:08:35,170 --> 00:08:36,502
In Paul's dreams, maybe.
172
00:08:36,573 --> 00:08:40,600
No, Paul was a relic from
Kathy's days at the institute.
173
00:08:40,677 --> 00:08:42,167
The institute?
174
00:08:42,245 --> 00:08:43,872
The Bryce Institute
for the Deaf.
175
00:08:43,947 --> 00:08:45,277
It's where they met.
176
00:08:48,785 --> 00:08:51,413
I'm sorry.
I have a midterm, okay?
177
00:08:56,760 --> 00:08:59,285
Any luck
with that address, Miss...
178
00:09:02,633 --> 00:09:05,534
Any luck with that address,
Miss Hendricks?
179
00:09:06,304 --> 00:09:08,795
I don't have Paul's address.
180
00:09:09,007 --> 00:09:10,998
He moves around a lot.
181
00:09:11,543 --> 00:09:14,478
But I know
he works at the garage
182
00:09:14,713 --> 00:09:17,204
on West Street at 25th.
183
00:09:18,250 --> 00:09:20,775
Dr. Bryce got him the job.
184
00:09:25,423 --> 00:09:27,187
I'm sorry, Dr. Bryce.
185
00:09:27,426 --> 00:09:31,624
These detectives are here
about Kathy McKenna.
186
00:09:31,931 --> 00:09:33,865
Hello, Doctor.
Have you got a minute?
187
00:09:34,233 --> 00:09:36,464
Of course.
Just come in here.
188
00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:42,970
I heard about
Kathy this morning.
189
00:09:43,944 --> 00:09:45,640
It's tragic. I, uh...
190
00:09:46,581 --> 00:09:48,411
Especially under
the circumstances.
191
00:09:48,482 --> 00:09:50,279
What circumstances?
192
00:09:50,350 --> 00:09:51,510
Well, last night,
193
00:09:51,585 --> 00:09:53,212
I was with Jacob
and Sonya Brinkman.
194
00:09:53,287 --> 00:09:55,279
They pledged
the money to expand
195
00:09:55,356 --> 00:09:57,916
a program we have
for deaf preschoolers.
196
00:09:58,026 --> 00:10:01,120
The idea of the program
originally was Kathy's
197
00:10:01,195 --> 00:10:03,026
so I was going to put her
in charge of it
198
00:10:03,097 --> 00:10:05,225
after her graduation in June.
199
00:10:05,301 --> 00:10:07,599
Well, I started to call
her from the Brinkmans'
200
00:10:07,670 --> 00:10:09,365
to give her the good news
201
00:10:09,438 --> 00:10:11,531
but it was almost midnight.
202
00:10:11,740 --> 00:10:14,072
Did you know anything
about her personal life?
203
00:10:14,143 --> 00:10:16,305
Like who she was involved with?
204
00:10:16,713 --> 00:10:18,681
I'd met some of the men
she'd dated.
205
00:10:18,782 --> 00:10:20,112
Like Ben Freed?
206
00:10:20,182 --> 00:10:22,309
Right, the... the
hearing man, yes.
207
00:10:22,818 --> 00:10:25,185
Well, those relationships
are always difficult.
208
00:10:25,288 --> 00:10:26,949
Paul Crandall more her type?
209
00:10:27,023 --> 00:10:29,150
Oh, no, no. Not Paul.
210
00:10:29,225 --> 00:10:31,090
You don't suspect Paul, do you?
211
00:10:31,328 --> 00:10:33,819
We're talking to everybody
she knew.
212
00:10:33,897 --> 00:10:36,958
Paul's a very sweet boy,
but he's very shy.
213
00:10:37,034 --> 00:10:40,492
I don't think he's had
much experience with women.
214
00:10:40,571 --> 00:10:42,937
How much do you need
to kill one?
215
00:10:44,175 --> 00:10:46,144
Paul's one weird kid.
216
00:10:46,912 --> 00:10:48,812
One hell of a mechanic.
217
00:10:49,381 --> 00:10:51,178
That deaf school
teaches them real good.
218
00:10:51,249 --> 00:10:52,237
I tell you.
219
00:10:52,316 --> 00:10:54,079
Did you ever see him
with a girl?
220
00:10:54,151 --> 00:10:56,347
She was deaf. Blonde.
221
00:10:57,089 --> 00:10:59,421
Yeah. Yeah. They were in here
a couple of weeks ago.
222
00:10:59,491 --> 00:11:01,186
Got him pretty upset, too.
223
00:11:01,259 --> 00:11:02,283
Kicked his toolbox
224
00:11:02,361 --> 00:11:04,296
halfway across
the garage after she left.
225
00:11:04,364 --> 00:11:06,491
Maybe they patched things up.
226
00:11:06,566 --> 00:11:07,555
Come on, man.
227
00:11:07,633 --> 00:11:09,567
One of these guys
got a babe waiting outside
228
00:11:09,635 --> 00:11:10,795
they're out of here
229
00:11:10,870 --> 00:11:12,770
by the time
that clock strikes 5:00.
230
00:11:12,872 --> 00:11:15,171
Paul was pulling
12, 15-hour shifts
231
00:11:15,242 --> 00:11:16,709
and begging for more.
232
00:11:17,644 --> 00:11:19,339
Which one of these was his?
233
00:11:20,114 --> 00:11:22,014
See that Ford up on the perch?
234
00:11:22,649 --> 00:11:24,241
He's supposed to be under it.
235
00:11:24,551 --> 00:11:26,712
Is there any chance
he took a break?
236
00:11:26,787 --> 00:11:29,813
No, he got a call about
a half hour ago on his beeper.
237
00:11:30,391 --> 00:11:32,052
A deaf person with a beeper?
238
00:11:32,126 --> 00:11:33,150
Yeah, you know,
239
00:11:33,227 --> 00:11:35,492
the kind that vibrates
inside your pocket.
240
00:11:35,897 --> 00:11:37,888
He hasn't been back since.
241
00:11:43,505 --> 00:11:44,768
Push the button.
242
00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:47,070
It makes a light flash inside.
243
00:11:52,214 --> 00:11:54,183
You know, Mike,
I got this refrigerator.
244
00:11:54,251 --> 00:11:55,512
The light keeps going out.
245
00:11:55,584 --> 00:11:56,608
For the life of me,
246
00:11:56,685 --> 00:11:58,312
I can't get
the landlord to fix it.
247
00:11:58,387 --> 00:12:00,446
I get it. I get it.
248
00:12:13,404 --> 00:12:15,065
Today's newspaper.
249
00:12:15,239 --> 00:12:17,571
I guess he wanted
to make the morning edition.
250
00:12:18,009 --> 00:12:19,067
Lennie.
251
00:12:19,143 --> 00:12:20,167
Hm?
252
00:12:21,112 --> 00:12:23,946
Wow. Everything
but her baby pictures.
253
00:12:25,784 --> 00:12:28,616
"Stop cochlear implants
at NYU."
254
00:12:30,288 --> 00:12:31,277
Cochlear implants.
255
00:12:31,355 --> 00:12:34,154
Wasrt that the operation Kathy's
parents were talking about?
256
00:12:34,226 --> 00:12:36,922
Yeah. We got into
a discussion about that once.
257
00:12:36,995 --> 00:12:39,429
I said it sounded
like a good idea.
258
00:12:39,498 --> 00:12:42,262
He said it was like
turning a black person white.
259
00:12:42,334 --> 00:12:43,768
That make sense to you?
260
00:12:43,837 --> 00:12:45,862
Ah, I guess it does
to these guys.
261
00:12:45,939 --> 00:12:48,032
L.O.U.D., 36 Greene Street.
262
00:12:48,141 --> 00:12:50,701
Richard Fiorello,
executive director.
263
00:12:54,748 --> 00:12:58,183
Doctors play Frankenstein
264
00:12:59,018 --> 00:13:00,679
with people's auditory nerves,
265
00:13:00,753 --> 00:13:02,152
and that's okay.
266
00:13:03,524 --> 00:13:05,822
But if some girl gets mugged,
267
00:13:06,427 --> 00:13:07,917
it's
"blame the deaf."
268
00:13:08,729 --> 00:13:10,629
Kathy McKenna was deaf.
269
00:13:13,902 --> 00:13:17,531
Kathy? You want to feel
sorry for Kathy?
270
00:13:18,573 --> 00:13:21,337
Feel sorry that
someone convinced Kathy
271
00:13:21,409 --> 00:13:24,470
that being deaf was
something to be ashamed of.
272
00:13:25,214 --> 00:13:29,014
Ask him if Paul got as
worked up as him about this.
273
00:13:34,891 --> 00:13:38,349
After Kathy broke up
with Paul for a hearing man,
274
00:13:39,095 --> 00:13:40,722
Paul couldn't think straight.
275
00:13:41,097 --> 00:13:42,895
So you told him what to think?
276
00:13:42,966 --> 00:13:44,126
Like last night?
277
00:13:45,102 --> 00:13:47,002
I didn't see Paul last night.
278
00:13:47,070 --> 00:13:49,630
Oh, come on,
he's that sort of a guy.
279
00:13:49,706 --> 00:13:51,230
Paul gets in some kind
of trouble,
280
00:13:51,308 --> 00:13:52,606
he comes to you.
281
00:13:59,584 --> 00:14:01,519
Get out or I'll get our lawyer.
282
00:14:01,586 --> 00:14:02,848
All right, get his attention.
283
00:14:07,592 --> 00:14:10,686
Sometimes people hide
for the wrong reasons
284
00:14:10,762 --> 00:14:13,357
and they create
the wrong impression.
285
00:14:13,432 --> 00:14:14,899
That's why it's better
286
00:14:14,967 --> 00:14:16,935
to just come out
and clear the air.
287
00:14:17,403 --> 00:14:19,234
Before the real trouble begins.
288
00:14:27,013 --> 00:14:29,345
They're watchir us
from the window.
289
00:14:29,416 --> 00:14:30,781
Give it a minute.
290
00:14:30,884 --> 00:14:33,819
I think he's in there.
Lot of attitude, huh?
291
00:14:33,887 --> 00:14:36,117
Hey, you know where
they're coming from.
292
00:14:36,189 --> 00:14:37,781
It's a whole different world.
293
00:14:37,891 --> 00:14:40,724
Yeah. Well, these guys
turned it into a cult.
294
00:14:40,794 --> 00:14:41,955
Kathy wanted out,
295
00:14:42,029 --> 00:14:43,621
Crandall wasrt
about to let her.
296
00:14:43,831 --> 00:14:44,889
Hey!
297
00:14:46,067 --> 00:14:47,295
Hey, watch it.
298
00:14:49,670 --> 00:14:52,003
Paul wants to know,
is he under arrest?
299
00:14:52,074 --> 00:14:53,405
Just some questions.
300
00:14:54,943 --> 00:14:58,538
If he's got the answers,
it'll be very simple.
301
00:14:59,982 --> 00:15:02,315
I think the kid's been busted.
302
00:15:06,455 --> 00:15:08,753
Hey, I want to believe you,
Paul, I really do.
303
00:15:08,824 --> 00:15:11,316
But unless you can give
us some answers,
304
00:15:11,394 --> 00:15:12,918
I have to assume the worst.
305
00:15:12,996 --> 00:15:15,556
Or maybe he's just shy.
306
00:15:18,534 --> 00:15:20,867
Or maybe he doesn't like
the questions.
307
00:15:21,338 --> 00:15:24,171
Like where was he
last night around 11:00?
308
00:15:27,277 --> 00:15:29,472
I worked at the garage
until 6:00.
309
00:15:29,546 --> 00:15:31,515
I took the bus to Richard's.
310
00:15:31,583 --> 00:15:33,312
We played cards until midnight.
311
00:15:33,618 --> 00:15:35,210
Two-handed poker?
312
00:15:36,454 --> 00:15:38,148
Gina played, too.
313
00:15:39,189 --> 00:15:40,919
You didn't see Kathy?
314
00:15:44,162 --> 00:15:45,459
Fellows.
315
00:15:48,433 --> 00:15:51,130
Fiorello's girlfriend
called Dr. Bryce.
316
00:15:51,337 --> 00:15:53,897
Does Paul need an attorney?
I can get one down here.
317
00:15:54,006 --> 00:15:55,906
He's not under arrest.
318
00:15:56,175 --> 00:15:58,643
Then I want to be in there.
He trusts me.
319
00:16:01,314 --> 00:16:02,576
Go ahead.
320
00:16:05,085 --> 00:16:06,177
Kathy and I
321
00:16:06,253 --> 00:16:09,050
were in the same speech-therapy
class at the institute.
322
00:16:09,690 --> 00:16:11,624
The other students
laughed at me.
323
00:16:11,692 --> 00:16:13,023
I was a charity case.
324
00:16:13,093 --> 00:16:14,492
L... I got Paul a scholarship.
325
00:16:14,561 --> 00:16:16,028
You know how kids can be.
326
00:16:17,264 --> 00:16:19,995
Kathy never laughed.
We had a bond.
327
00:16:20,334 --> 00:16:22,268
You bond with her lately?
328
00:16:23,938 --> 00:16:25,769
I haven't seen Kathy in weeks.
329
00:16:25,840 --> 00:16:27,933
So why the disappearing act?
330
00:16:28,743 --> 00:16:30,712
I read about Kathy
in the newspapers
331
00:16:30,779 --> 00:16:33,748
and then, uh, Miss Hendricks
telephoned me at the garage
332
00:16:33,816 --> 00:16:35,408
to tell me
you were looking for me.
333
00:16:35,484 --> 00:16:36,849
And I got scared.
334
00:16:36,919 --> 00:16:38,113
How did you feel
335
00:16:38,187 --> 00:16:40,053
when Kathy started
dating Ben Freed, Paul?
336
00:16:40,123 --> 00:16:43,148
I mean, she drops you for a
hearing guy. That must have hurt.
337
00:16:43,225 --> 00:16:45,489
That's ridiculous.
Paul's deaf.
338
00:16:45,561 --> 00:16:47,153
Stop treating him
like a psychopath.
339
00:16:47,229 --> 00:16:49,061
I'm asking him the question.
340
00:16:51,401 --> 00:16:52,891
I accepted it.
341
00:16:53,036 --> 00:16:54,799
I knew that
she'd be coming back.
342
00:16:54,871 --> 00:16:58,740
Paul, she was getting
a cochlear implant.
343
00:16:59,510 --> 00:17:01,876
She was getting
her hearing back.
344
00:17:02,279 --> 00:17:04,975
You and your deaf buddies
were history.
345
00:17:08,754 --> 00:17:10,346
You think
I'd kill her for that?
346
00:17:10,422 --> 00:17:12,412
Somebody did this to her, Paul.
347
00:17:12,490 --> 00:17:14,253
That's it.
I'm putting an end to this!
348
00:17:14,325 --> 00:17:17,317
No, I didn't kill Kathy.
I didn't kill!
349
00:17:18,430 --> 00:17:21,092
Forensics found no blood
or skin under her nails
350
00:17:21,166 --> 00:17:22,827
and the scarf
she was strangled with
351
00:17:22,901 --> 00:17:24,266
was from Doyal's.
352
00:17:24,336 --> 00:17:26,668
Oh, good. So we get his coat,
check for fibers.
353
00:17:26,738 --> 00:17:29,469
No. The guy wore
a leather coat from Goodwill.
354
00:17:29,542 --> 00:17:31,271
We checked it.
It was clean.
355
00:17:31,577 --> 00:17:33,408
Crandall's LUDs.
They just came in.
356
00:17:33,479 --> 00:17:34,571
Thanks, Tony.
357
00:17:35,515 --> 00:17:38,781
Uh-huh. This sound familiar?
555-8686?
358
00:17:39,153 --> 00:17:40,620
Kathy McKenna's number.
359
00:17:40,687 --> 00:17:43,019
This guy was calling her
any more often,
360
00:17:43,090 --> 00:17:44,454
he'd need a WATS line.
361
00:17:44,524 --> 00:17:47,789
6:05, 7:10, he was
calling her every night.
362
00:17:47,860 --> 00:17:50,261
Makes you wonder what she said
to him to shut him up.
363
00:17:50,330 --> 00:17:52,127
He was pretty quiet
the rest of the night.
364
00:17:52,199 --> 00:17:54,190
Just one call,
at 11:30 in the Village.
365
00:17:54,268 --> 00:17:56,361
Oh, let me guess.
Greene Street.
366
00:17:56,503 --> 00:17:59,064
Fiorello? The guy who flipped
you off with both hands?
367
00:17:59,140 --> 00:18:00,835
The same guy
Crandall was supposed to be
368
00:18:00,909 --> 00:18:02,638
playing cards with at 11:30.
369
00:18:03,278 --> 00:18:04,870
You know that phone
for the deaf
370
00:18:04,946 --> 00:18:06,914
that we got downstairs,
the one you type on?
371
00:18:06,981 --> 00:18:08,643
That spits out a printout,
doesn't it?
372
00:18:08,717 --> 00:18:10,685
Crandall had one
like that in his apartment,
373
00:18:10,753 --> 00:18:12,050
but I didn't see any printouts.
374
00:18:12,121 --> 00:18:14,282
And when he talked
with Kathy McKenna,
375
00:18:14,356 --> 00:18:16,220
you think it was
a one-sided conversation?
376
00:18:17,893 --> 00:18:21,260
Those geniuses from CSU
classified Kathy's TDD
377
00:18:21,330 --> 00:18:23,662
as a "telephone
answering machine."
378
00:18:24,266 --> 00:18:25,756
I don't even want to know
379
00:18:25,835 --> 00:18:27,997
what ended up
under "kitchen appliances."
380
00:18:30,373 --> 00:18:32,671
I don't get it.
In the last week,
381
00:18:32,742 --> 00:18:35,142
Crandall must have called
at least 20 times.
382
00:18:35,212 --> 00:18:38,182
Yeah. It's just our luck.
She was a neat freak.
383
00:18:39,784 --> 00:18:43,743
Ma'am, whers the last time
they picked up the garbage?
384
00:18:44,088 --> 00:18:46,022
Mr. Broda hasn't taken
the garbage bin out
385
00:18:46,090 --> 00:18:47,717
since last Friday.
386
00:18:51,395 --> 00:18:53,295
How many apartments
in this building?
387
00:18:53,364 --> 00:18:54,524
30.
388
00:18:54,599 --> 00:18:56,499
And they all have to eat eggs?
389
00:18:57,469 --> 00:18:58,834
How about this guy?
390
00:18:58,904 --> 00:19:01,134
It's all doughnuts
and stroke magazines.
391
00:19:01,206 --> 00:19:03,868
Yeah, well he's depressed,
stays home a lot.
392
00:19:05,043 --> 00:19:07,069
Damn. Hold it.
393
00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:08,947
Find something?
394
00:19:09,048 --> 00:19:12,882
Electric bill. "Kathleen...
Kathleen S. McKenna."
395
00:19:12,952 --> 00:19:14,385
Keep digging.
396
00:19:19,325 --> 00:19:20,690
Pay dirt.
397
00:19:22,462 --> 00:19:24,225
How you tell
who's who on these things?
398
00:19:24,297 --> 00:19:25,628
The caller's in caps.
399
00:19:25,698 --> 00:19:27,223
Kathy's end is lowercase.
400
00:19:27,301 --> 00:19:29,292
We've pieced three
of these together.
401
00:19:29,370 --> 00:19:31,361
Two of them
are definitely from Crandall.
402
00:19:31,438 --> 00:19:32,735
He IDs himself at the top.
403
00:19:32,806 --> 00:19:34,000
And the third?
404
00:19:34,141 --> 00:19:35,369
Partially damaged.
405
00:19:35,442 --> 00:19:37,741
We can't confirm
it's from Crandall,
406
00:19:37,812 --> 00:19:39,905
but it does fit
the pattern of his calls.
407
00:19:40,548 --> 00:19:41,674
Caller:
408
00:19:41,750 --> 00:19:44,412
"At least give me a chance
to talk you out of this."
409
00:19:44,920 --> 00:19:45,852
Kathy:
410
00:19:45,921 --> 00:19:47,412
"Nothing to talk about."
411
00:19:47,857 --> 00:19:48,881
Caller:
412
00:19:48,958 --> 00:19:50,925
"You want an easy way out,
but you owe me."
413
00:19:50,992 --> 00:19:53,552
Kathy:
"It always comes to that."
414
00:19:53,995 --> 00:19:55,519
Caller: "Damn right."
415
00:19:55,630 --> 00:19:57,292
Now here she
types in "SK, SK."
416
00:19:57,366 --> 00:19:59,027
That's code for
"I'm getting off."
417
00:19:59,101 --> 00:20:01,262
Caller:
"You hang up, you bitch,
418
00:20:01,337 --> 00:20:03,567
I'll kill you!
I'll kill you!"
419
00:20:03,639 --> 00:20:05,698
The call before
is from Kathy's mother.
420
00:20:05,776 --> 00:20:08,643
She talks about going shopping
tomorrow, Thursday.
421
00:20:08,712 --> 00:20:10,236
So this call was
on the Wednesday
422
00:20:10,314 --> 00:20:11,440
that she was killed.
423
00:20:11,515 --> 00:20:13,449
Right. Crandall calls her
in the afternoon.
424
00:20:13,517 --> 00:20:15,041
He begs her to take him back.
425
00:20:15,118 --> 00:20:17,110
He threatens her.
She hangs up.
426
00:20:17,188 --> 00:20:19,019
He waits for her
outside her place.
427
00:20:19,090 --> 00:20:20,557
She still blows him off.
428
00:20:20,625 --> 00:20:21,922
He kills her
at 11:10,
429
00:20:21,993 --> 00:20:23,584
he panics, and he runs home.
430
00:20:23,660 --> 00:20:28,030
At 11:30 he calls Fiorello.
"My God, I've killed Kathy."
431
00:20:30,902 --> 00:20:32,267
Arrest him.
432
00:20:46,753 --> 00:20:49,586
Paul Crandall,
you're under arrest
433
00:20:49,656 --> 00:20:51,681
for the murder
of Kathy McKenna.
434
00:20:51,758 --> 00:20:52,747
Read this.
435
00:21:03,370 --> 00:21:06,397
In all my years of
representing the disadvantaged
436
00:21:06,474 --> 00:21:08,601
I have never seen
such a spectacle.
437
00:21:11,178 --> 00:21:14,170
As if Paul's deafness
wasrt enough of a handicap,
438
00:21:14,248 --> 00:21:16,774
you hobble him
with a public arrest.
439
00:21:18,520 --> 00:21:19,544
Mr. Crandall,
440
00:21:19,621 --> 00:21:23,250
maybe you'd like to compare
the bruises on your feelings
441
00:21:23,325 --> 00:21:26,351
with the ones you left
on Kathy McKenna's neck.
442
00:21:26,962 --> 00:21:30,295
You have arraigned my client,
you haven't convicted him.
443
00:21:30,599 --> 00:21:32,191
There's nothing
in that folder of yours
444
00:21:32,267 --> 00:21:33,825
that connects him
to this murder.
445
00:21:33,902 --> 00:21:35,962
Which lie do you
want to start with?
446
00:21:36,039 --> 00:21:37,836
The one about the card game?
447
00:21:38,074 --> 00:21:39,701
You don't like his alibi?
448
00:21:39,776 --> 00:21:42,006
That's fine.
Let's clear that up right now.
449
00:21:47,117 --> 00:21:49,108
I lied because I was scared.
450
00:21:49,186 --> 00:21:50,847
I saw Kathy that night.
451
00:21:51,088 --> 00:21:53,682
I met her at the B and C Cafe
in the Village.
452
00:21:53,757 --> 00:21:54,952
We got into a taxi
453
00:21:55,026 --> 00:21:57,051
and we went back to her place.
454
00:21:57,128 --> 00:21:58,253
When I left,
455
00:21:58,328 --> 00:21:59,852
she was standing
on the sidewalk.
456
00:21:59,930 --> 00:22:01,329
She was still alive.
457
00:22:01,432 --> 00:22:04,493
It's more heart-warming
than the first version.
458
00:22:04,736 --> 00:22:06,169
But it leads to the same place,
459
00:22:06,237 --> 00:22:07,761
a small room upstate.
460
00:22:10,308 --> 00:22:12,469
The waitress at
the cafe will testify
461
00:22:12,544 --> 00:22:13,807
that their conversation
462
00:22:13,879 --> 00:22:16,040
seemed rational
and under control.
463
00:22:16,315 --> 00:22:17,782
She understands sign language?
464
00:22:17,850 --> 00:22:19,715
She's not blind,
Mr. Robinette.
465
00:22:19,785 --> 00:22:21,582
She understands body language.
466
00:22:21,654 --> 00:22:23,748
And I also read English,
young man,
467
00:22:23,824 --> 00:22:26,622
including the printouts
of Kathy McKenna's phone.
468
00:22:26,693 --> 00:22:28,422
The threats are unmistakable.
469
00:22:28,495 --> 00:22:31,156
And impossible
to attribute to my client.
470
00:22:31,330 --> 00:22:33,925
The best you can
do today is man one.
471
00:22:36,103 --> 00:22:37,195
Aim your 20l20s
472
00:22:37,270 --> 00:22:38,669
at the big letters on the wall.
473
00:22:38,738 --> 00:22:41,263
No direct evidence, no case.
474
00:22:42,909 --> 00:22:45,845
I'll look for your letter of
dismissal in the mail, gentlemen.
475
00:22:51,886 --> 00:22:53,650
Kathy was my friend
and a colleague.
476
00:22:53,722 --> 00:22:55,246
And I'm devastated
by her death.
477
00:22:55,324 --> 00:22:56,848
But I have an obligation
478
00:22:56,925 --> 00:22:58,984
that goes beyond
my personal feelings.
479
00:22:59,061 --> 00:23:01,620
An obligation to
the future of my institute.
480
00:23:01,696 --> 00:23:04,097
I don't want the public
thinking of Paul Crandall
481
00:23:04,166 --> 00:23:06,430
every time they read
about the work we're doing.
482
00:23:06,502 --> 00:23:08,663
Are you suggesting
leniency for him?
483
00:23:08,871 --> 00:23:11,999
Do you have any idea what the
effect of a trial like this will be?
484
00:23:12,674 --> 00:23:14,302
People use any excuse
485
00:23:14,377 --> 00:23:16,140
to keep their checkbook
in their pocket.
486
00:23:16,212 --> 00:23:17,907
This isn't about
signing checks.
487
00:23:17,981 --> 00:23:19,642
It's about
a girl being murdered.
488
00:23:19,716 --> 00:23:21,308
You didn't know Kathy.
489
00:23:21,417 --> 00:23:23,943
In time, she could've become
dean of Gallaudet.
490
00:23:24,688 --> 00:23:26,918
Her dedication was on
the same level as my own
491
00:23:26,991 --> 00:23:28,356
and I know if she were alive,
492
00:23:28,425 --> 00:23:30,256
she would agree
with my priorities.
493
00:23:31,328 --> 00:23:32,955
We appreciate your concerns,
Mr. Bryce.
494
00:23:33,030 --> 00:23:34,588
We'll add them to the mix.
495
00:23:34,665 --> 00:23:36,929
Thank you, Mr. Stone.
Mr. Robinette.
496
00:23:40,804 --> 00:23:42,169
First Rollins, then Bryce,
497
00:23:42,239 --> 00:23:44,606
both sticking their fingers
on the pity button.
498
00:23:45,443 --> 00:23:47,138
Once their violins get in tune,
499
00:23:47,212 --> 00:23:48,873
Crandall could
get a jury to hum along.
500
00:23:48,947 --> 00:23:52,041
He can't make them forget he's no
more disabled than Kathy McKenna.
501
00:23:52,117 --> 00:23:55,212
They won't see her deafness.
They'll only see Crandall's.
502
00:23:55,288 --> 00:23:57,950
That's all they'll care about,
unless of course we can prove
503
00:23:58,024 --> 00:23:59,889
that those are
his words on the printout.
504
00:24:04,263 --> 00:24:07,460
American Sign Language
is a spatial-visual medium
505
00:24:07,533 --> 00:24:09,592
with its own, uh, syntax.
506
00:24:10,203 --> 00:24:13,765
Uh, to a hearing person,
a word-for-word translation
507
00:24:13,840 --> 00:24:16,536
of ASL sounds
like broken English.
508
00:24:16,877 --> 00:24:20,711
Uh, "I go to the store"
comes out "Go store I."
509
00:24:21,448 --> 00:24:23,246
They do any better
on the typewriter?
510
00:24:23,318 --> 00:24:25,582
Well, the deaf learn
English grammar in school.
511
00:24:25,653 --> 00:24:28,816
Uh, in formal settings
they write as well as anyone.
512
00:24:29,257 --> 00:24:30,622
But on the phone they relax.
513
00:24:30,692 --> 00:24:31,751
Like everybody else.
514
00:24:31,827 --> 00:24:34,819
But their grammatical mistakes
are more subtle
515
00:24:34,897 --> 00:24:37,558
and they acquire
individual characteristics.
516
00:24:37,632 --> 00:24:39,896
What about the 3:21 printout?
Is it his?
517
00:24:39,968 --> 00:24:41,994
Right, uh, the death threat.
518
00:24:42,071 --> 00:24:44,335
Uh, I'm not surprised
nobody picked up on it.
519
00:24:44,440 --> 00:24:46,533
"At least give me a chance."
520
00:24:46,709 --> 00:24:47,869
Pretty generic.
521
00:24:47,943 --> 00:24:50,503
Except that there's
no sign in ASL for "at."
522
00:24:50,846 --> 00:24:52,838
It's not a word
they'd commonly use.
523
00:24:52,916 --> 00:24:56,113
Uh, same with
"you want an easy way out."
524
00:24:56,419 --> 00:24:59,616
The deaf don't differentiate
between "a" and "an."
525
00:25:00,857 --> 00:25:02,223
Prof. Durnars convinced
526
00:25:02,293 --> 00:25:03,920
it was written
by a hearing person.
527
00:25:03,995 --> 00:25:05,758
Because of two words?
528
00:25:06,130 --> 00:25:08,222
Crandall wrote pamphlets
for his organization.
529
00:25:08,298 --> 00:25:09,925
He's no stranger
to English syntax.
530
00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:11,229
If he didn't use "at" and "an"
531
00:25:11,302 --> 00:25:12,735
in any of the other printouts,
532
00:25:12,803 --> 00:25:14,771
I doubt he'd start
in the heat of argument.
533
00:25:14,839 --> 00:25:17,501
Ben Freed, Kathy's boyfriend
said he was at the library
534
00:25:17,575 --> 00:25:18,701
the night she was killed.
535
00:25:18,776 --> 00:25:21,211
Briscoe and Logan werert able
to pin down the time he left.
536
00:25:21,280 --> 00:25:23,874
He killed her?
Why? She stood him up?
537
00:25:24,149 --> 00:25:25,309
Well, Kathy's roommate said
538
00:25:25,384 --> 00:25:27,079
the relationship
was combustible.
539
00:25:27,152 --> 00:25:29,211
You add jealousy,
anything's possible.
540
00:25:30,389 --> 00:25:32,722
You mean
she broke a date with him.
541
00:25:32,792 --> 00:25:35,659
He waits for her.
He sees her with Crandall.
542
00:25:36,029 --> 00:25:37,223
Freed concludes
543
00:25:37,297 --> 00:25:39,128
she didn't deserve
to live without him.
544
00:25:39,498 --> 00:25:40,522
You can't be serious.
545
00:25:40,600 --> 00:25:42,261
I was in love with her,
for God's sake.
546
00:25:42,335 --> 00:25:43,962
All the more reason
to be disappointed
547
00:25:44,037 --> 00:25:45,299
when you saw her with Crandall.
548
00:25:45,371 --> 00:25:47,498
I told you, I didn't know.
549
00:25:47,573 --> 00:25:48,631
She loved me.
550
00:25:48,708 --> 00:25:50,939
We were going to
California together.
551
00:25:51,011 --> 00:25:53,844
We were applying to USC.
I have the forms.
552
00:25:55,316 --> 00:25:56,408
Here.
553
00:25:57,217 --> 00:25:59,811
It's to their MSW program.
554
00:26:00,087 --> 00:26:01,817
She even signed it.
555
00:26:03,758 --> 00:26:06,022
The deadline was
two days after she died.
556
00:26:06,628 --> 00:26:07,856
She changed her mind?
557
00:26:07,929 --> 00:26:08,987
No. She was waiting
558
00:26:09,064 --> 00:26:11,498
for a letter of recommendation
from Gordan Bryce.
559
00:26:12,434 --> 00:26:14,732
Bryce knew she was
moving to California?
560
00:26:14,803 --> 00:26:18,398
She'd been to see him
about it, uh, three weeks ago.
561
00:26:19,441 --> 00:26:21,273
Her parents confirmed
Kathy was thinking
562
00:26:21,344 --> 00:26:23,209
about going to
graduate school with Freed.
563
00:26:23,279 --> 00:26:24,268
The only hold-up
564
00:26:24,347 --> 00:26:26,178
was a letter of recommendation
from Bryce.
565
00:26:26,248 --> 00:26:29,274
Bryce told us that Kathy would
be working for him next year.
566
00:26:29,352 --> 00:26:30,445
Well, maybe he thought
567
00:26:30,520 --> 00:26:32,420
his claim on her
should take precedence.
568
00:26:32,589 --> 00:26:33,715
Bryce told the police
569
00:26:33,790 --> 00:26:35,348
that he was
with, uh, Jacob Brinkman
570
00:26:35,425 --> 00:26:37,154
until 12:00
the night Kathy was killed.
571
00:26:37,227 --> 00:26:38,524
Talk to Brinkman.
572
00:26:38,595 --> 00:26:39,858
I doubt he keeps
his eyes closed
573
00:26:39,931 --> 00:26:41,762
when he gives away his money.
574
00:26:45,369 --> 00:26:48,463
Sonya and I have
a lot of affection for Gordon.
575
00:26:49,272 --> 00:26:51,764
He's a little tough
to take sometimes.
576
00:26:51,876 --> 00:26:53,104
But thanks to him,
577
00:26:53,177 --> 00:26:54,838
our son Jared has
been able to live
578
00:26:54,912 --> 00:26:57,073
something like a normal life.
579
00:26:57,715 --> 00:26:59,046
Hard to take how?
580
00:26:59,117 --> 00:27:01,552
He has a special
kind of dedication.
581
00:27:01,620 --> 00:27:03,645
If he smells
a nickel in your pocket,
582
00:27:03,722 --> 00:27:05,155
he'll get in your face
583
00:27:05,224 --> 00:27:08,352
till he gets you to sign it
over to his institute.
584
00:27:09,061 --> 00:27:10,620
The night of the murder,
585
00:27:10,697 --> 00:27:12,358
what time did
he leave your house?
586
00:27:12,432 --> 00:27:14,195
I'd have to ask Sonya.
587
00:27:14,566 --> 00:27:16,329
We went to bed before 12:00.
588
00:27:16,668 --> 00:27:17,760
You're sure?
589
00:27:17,836 --> 00:27:20,533
11:30 p. m. Every night,
I take digitoxin.
590
00:27:20,607 --> 00:27:21,801
Bad heart.
591
00:27:22,142 --> 00:27:23,769
Did Mr. Bryce say
where he was going?
592
00:27:23,843 --> 00:27:25,140
I don't know.
593
00:27:25,211 --> 00:27:29,171
Mr. Robinette, Gordon may be
a single-minded pain in the ass
594
00:27:29,250 --> 00:27:33,016
but he didn't kill anybody,
least of all Kathy McKenna.
595
00:27:33,187 --> 00:27:34,313
You knew her?
596
00:27:34,422 --> 00:27:36,083
We had dinner
with Gordon and Kathy
597
00:27:36,157 --> 00:27:37,715
a number of times.
598
00:27:39,394 --> 00:27:42,192
I am not going to define
his relationship with her.
599
00:27:42,364 --> 00:27:44,423
He obviously liked her.
600
00:27:44,499 --> 00:27:46,329
She probably was more in tune
601
00:27:46,400 --> 00:27:48,767
with his goals
than his first wife, Judith.
602
00:27:49,838 --> 00:27:51,829
I was going up
the stairs in the quad.
603
00:27:51,907 --> 00:27:53,772
Gordors the only one
who stopped to help.
604
00:27:53,842 --> 00:27:55,571
I was easy pickings.
605
00:27:56,645 --> 00:27:58,306
They can make
crutches for everything
606
00:27:58,380 --> 00:27:59,848
except your self-esteem.
607
00:28:00,550 --> 00:28:02,142
Gordon got me off the crutches
608
00:28:02,218 --> 00:28:04,379
and into feeling
pretty good about myself.
609
00:28:05,655 --> 00:28:08,180
So far, it doesn't sound
like grounds for divorce.
610
00:28:08,559 --> 00:28:10,288
I wanted a marriage.
611
00:28:10,360 --> 00:28:11,850
Gordon wanted a cause.
612
00:28:12,029 --> 00:28:14,054
He wanted to get
everybody off crutches.
613
00:28:14,131 --> 00:28:16,099
It made him feel important.
614
00:28:16,300 --> 00:28:18,291
I just couldn't compete
with an institute
615
00:28:18,368 --> 00:28:20,097
full of needy people.
616
00:28:20,170 --> 00:28:22,035
Being needed
is not a bad thing.
617
00:28:23,307 --> 00:28:24,774
Gordon needs to be needed.
618
00:28:25,142 --> 00:28:26,769
That's his life work.
619
00:28:27,411 --> 00:28:29,312
And he expected me
to be right there
620
00:28:29,380 --> 00:28:31,871
toiling alongside him,
every minute of the day.
621
00:28:32,317 --> 00:28:34,751
After 15 years,
I called a lawyer.
622
00:28:34,853 --> 00:28:36,480
How'd he take it?
623
00:28:38,390 --> 00:28:39,652
Not well.
624
00:28:40,259 --> 00:28:41,851
Disagree with
Gordon on anything,
625
00:28:41,927 --> 00:28:43,451
and it's a betrayal.
626
00:28:46,198 --> 00:28:48,030
Have you ever seen this girl?
627
00:28:48,535 --> 00:28:51,503
Yeah. I ran into them
at the park a year ago.
628
00:28:51,837 --> 00:28:53,600
He said she was committed.
629
00:28:53,706 --> 00:28:55,765
To him or to the institute?
630
00:28:57,443 --> 00:29:00,038
That would have to be
the same thing.
631
00:29:00,780 --> 00:29:03,112
The death threats were made
by a hearing person.
632
00:29:03,216 --> 00:29:05,684
Gordon Bryce
routinely uses TDD phones.
633
00:29:05,752 --> 00:29:07,618
We checked the LUDs
from the institute.
634
00:29:07,688 --> 00:29:10,282
They were three calls made to
Kathy the day she was killed.
635
00:29:10,358 --> 00:29:12,918
Fine, indict Gordon Bryce.
636
00:29:13,528 --> 00:29:15,655
If he doesn't work out,
637
00:29:15,863 --> 00:29:17,798
there's always
the nun in Calcutta.
638
00:29:17,866 --> 00:29:20,767
Bryce's wife told us that he
doesn't take rejection kindly.
639
00:29:20,836 --> 00:29:22,735
So if he takes Kathy McKenna
under his wing
640
00:29:22,803 --> 00:29:25,101
and he nurtures her, he's
not about to cut her loose
641
00:29:25,172 --> 00:29:26,730
and let her run off
to California.
642
00:29:26,807 --> 00:29:28,139
You cannot go forward
643
00:29:28,210 --> 00:29:29,802
unless you place him
at the scene.
644
00:29:29,878 --> 00:29:31,505
Well, she was
strangled with a scarf.
645
00:29:31,580 --> 00:29:34,048
There could be fibers on his
gloves, maybe even on his coat.
646
00:29:34,116 --> 00:29:35,674
There might
even be bloodstains.
647
00:29:35,751 --> 00:29:37,117
Suspicion isn't probable cause
648
00:29:37,186 --> 00:29:38,551
for a search warrant.
649
00:29:38,621 --> 00:29:39,610
Without a warrant,
650
00:29:39,689 --> 00:29:42,055
we can't even eliminate
him as a suspect.
651
00:29:42,125 --> 00:29:43,990
Who's on warrants today?
652
00:29:44,127 --> 00:29:46,027
Judge Chabot,
the policemars friend.
653
00:29:47,264 --> 00:29:48,424
Okay.
654
00:29:52,736 --> 00:29:55,101
You want to search
the mars home and his office?
655
00:29:55,171 --> 00:29:56,605
Wherever he hangs
his hat, Judge.
656
00:29:56,674 --> 00:29:58,301
There's nothing
in the application
657
00:29:58,375 --> 00:30:00,240
that directly links
Mr. Bryce to the crime.
658
00:30:00,311 --> 00:30:02,279
But the actions
listed in the affidavits
659
00:30:02,346 --> 00:30:04,075
show consciousness
of guilt, Your Honor.
660
00:30:04,148 --> 00:30:06,515
Judge, detectives Briscoe
and Logan have applied for
661
00:30:06,585 --> 00:30:08,519
and been granted
hundreds of search warrants.
662
00:30:08,587 --> 00:30:10,418
They know probable cause
when they see it.
663
00:30:10,488 --> 00:30:11,978
So do I, Mr. Robinette.
664
00:30:12,057 --> 00:30:13,820
I'm ducking
my wife's calls today.
665
00:30:13,892 --> 00:30:15,553
Doesrt mean I plan to kill her.
666
00:30:15,627 --> 00:30:16,720
Much as I would like to.
667
00:30:16,796 --> 00:30:17,922
Your Honor...
668
00:30:17,997 --> 00:30:20,329
Strike that last part, Maggie.
669
00:30:21,701 --> 00:30:23,828
You should learn to relax,
Mr. Robinette.
670
00:30:23,903 --> 00:30:25,699
Just because I do
20 of these a day,
671
00:30:25,770 --> 00:30:27,466
doesn't mean
we can't have a little fun.
672
00:30:27,540 --> 00:30:29,030
Is this your signature,
Detective?
673
00:30:29,108 --> 00:30:30,473
Yes, sir.
674
00:30:30,676 --> 00:30:31,938
Raise your right hand.
675
00:30:32,011 --> 00:30:34,002
Do you swear
the contents of your affidavit
676
00:30:34,080 --> 00:30:36,015
are true to
the best of your knowledge?
677
00:30:36,083 --> 00:30:37,243
I do.
678
00:30:42,389 --> 00:30:44,755
Forensics pulled six fibers
from Bryce's gloves,
679
00:30:44,825 --> 00:30:46,657
eight from his coat.
680
00:30:46,728 --> 00:30:48,593
Color and diameter
match Kathy's scarf.
681
00:30:48,730 --> 00:30:50,630
That's not good enough
for Adam.
682
00:30:50,698 --> 00:30:53,292
Those fibers on Bryce's coat
could have gotten there
683
00:30:53,368 --> 00:30:56,202
when Kathy went to see him
about her application.
684
00:30:56,305 --> 00:30:57,737
Hard to explain this away.
685
00:30:57,839 --> 00:31:00,034
The gloves found
at Bryce's house,
686
00:31:00,174 --> 00:31:02,404
minute traces of blood
on the left one.
687
00:31:02,510 --> 00:31:04,341
Now they're
still running a DNA,
688
00:31:04,412 --> 00:31:06,347
but the blood type
is the same as Kathy's.
689
00:31:06,548 --> 00:31:08,413
Well, I'd like to see
Arthur Gold argue
690
00:31:08,484 --> 00:31:10,850
that Kathy got a paper cut
from her application.
691
00:31:12,154 --> 00:31:14,918
Arthur Gold?
Bryce retained counsel?
692
00:31:15,324 --> 00:31:16,815
Yeah, Gold called this morning
693
00:31:16,893 --> 00:31:19,088
to see how serious
we are about Bryce.
694
00:31:19,162 --> 00:31:21,357
I'm gonna tell him
that Briscoe and Logan
695
00:31:21,431 --> 00:31:22,591
are on their way over
696
00:31:22,666 --> 00:31:24,793
to Bryce's office
with my answer.
697
00:31:25,770 --> 00:31:27,704
And tell Crandall's attorney
we're dismissing
698
00:31:27,772 --> 00:31:29,796
the charges against his client.
699
00:31:31,574 --> 00:31:33,405
Arthur Gold, please.
700
00:31:36,714 --> 00:31:38,204
Until I read your indictment,
701
00:31:38,282 --> 00:31:40,716
I thought that
minimalism was dead, Ben.
702
00:31:40,785 --> 00:31:43,049
One abstraction
teetering on another.
703
00:31:43,120 --> 00:31:44,747
It might get you a wall
at MOMA,
704
00:31:44,822 --> 00:31:47,155
I can't see it getting raves
from a New York jury.
705
00:31:47,225 --> 00:31:48,453
Uh, fortunately, Arthur,
706
00:31:48,527 --> 00:31:50,552
forensic science
isn't a matter of taste.
707
00:31:51,530 --> 00:31:53,088
Strange how something so random
708
00:31:53,165 --> 00:31:55,430
calls itself a science.
709
00:31:55,802 --> 00:31:58,498
Now how many people did
Kathy McKenna brush up against
710
00:31:58,571 --> 00:32:00,868
on the subway or on the street?
711
00:32:00,939 --> 00:32:03,373
But fibers from her scarf
make them all killers?
712
00:32:03,442 --> 00:32:05,604
It would if they had
her blood on their gloves.
713
00:32:05,712 --> 00:32:07,703
Inconclusive DNA.
714
00:32:07,780 --> 00:32:09,304
Blood type B negative?
715
00:32:09,382 --> 00:32:12,146
I'm B negative.
So is Gordors housekeeper.
716
00:32:12,251 --> 00:32:14,116
You can pile it up
as high as you like,
717
00:32:14,187 --> 00:32:15,655
it won't change the smell.
718
00:32:15,723 --> 00:32:17,623
Your client stepped in it
when he lied
719
00:32:17,691 --> 00:32:19,556
about the time
he left the Brinkmans'.
720
00:32:19,626 --> 00:32:21,287
Jacob and Sonya
are lovely people.
721
00:32:21,361 --> 00:32:22,851
They helped Gordon make bail.
722
00:32:22,930 --> 00:32:24,899
I'm sure their memory
will be more specific
723
00:32:24,966 --> 00:32:26,627
by the time
they take the stand.
724
00:32:26,701 --> 00:32:28,760
Mr. Bryce,
why are you so confident
725
00:32:28,837 --> 00:32:31,067
that these people will perjure
themselves for you?
726
00:32:31,139 --> 00:32:32,332
They won't have to.
727
00:32:33,640 --> 00:32:35,905
It was closer
to 10:30 when I left.
728
00:32:35,977 --> 00:32:37,911
I took a taxi to
Marcia Hendricks' apartment.
729
00:32:37,979 --> 00:32:39,708
She's my executive assistant.
730
00:32:39,781 --> 00:32:42,045
We had institute
business to discuss.
731
00:32:42,117 --> 00:32:43,880
I left some time
after midnight.
732
00:32:43,952 --> 00:32:45,318
What did you have to discuss
733
00:32:45,387 --> 00:32:47,480
that couldn't wait
until the next morning?
734
00:32:47,556 --> 00:32:48,716
I had a $200,000 check
735
00:32:48,791 --> 00:32:50,486
from Jacob Brinkman
in my pocket.
736
00:32:50,559 --> 00:32:51,924
Now Marcia had taken
737
00:32:51,994 --> 00:32:53,518
the bank-deposit stamp
home with her.
738
00:32:53,596 --> 00:32:55,758
I wanted that check stamped
soon as soon as possible,
739
00:32:55,832 --> 00:32:56,856
for security reasons.
740
00:32:56,933 --> 00:32:59,458
Whatever the reason he was
at Miss Hendricks' home,
741
00:32:59,536 --> 00:33:01,094
that's where he was.
742
00:33:01,171 --> 00:33:03,105
Just to get
the ball rolling, Ben.
743
00:33:04,741 --> 00:33:06,732
Demand for bill of particulars,
744
00:33:06,810 --> 00:33:08,869
motion to reopen
the grand jury,
745
00:33:08,945 --> 00:33:10,776
motion for change of venue.
746
00:33:10,847 --> 00:33:12,678
Have a nice weekend.
747
00:33:17,922 --> 00:33:19,890
Bryce shows up at
his secretary's house
748
00:33:19,957 --> 00:33:22,425
in the middle of the night
with a check for $200,000?
749
00:33:22,493 --> 00:33:24,462
Maybe they have
something more to cover up
750
00:33:24,530 --> 00:33:26,430
than his involvement
in a murder.
751
00:33:26,498 --> 00:33:28,693
Yeah. They're up to their
elbows in the cookie jar.
752
00:33:28,801 --> 00:33:32,134
Well, a good look at the
institute's books should help.
753
00:33:35,841 --> 00:33:39,607
501 s.
Not-for-profit, tax-exempt.
754
00:33:40,212 --> 00:33:41,645
You want to make a killing,
755
00:33:41,713 --> 00:33:43,579
buy the lease on
their copy machines.
756
00:33:43,650 --> 00:33:46,380
Copies to the IRS,
copies to the state,
757
00:33:46,452 --> 00:33:47,783
copies to the AG.
758
00:33:47,854 --> 00:33:49,651
Hamburgers should be
so well-regulated.
759
00:33:49,722 --> 00:33:52,452
They would be
if they were tax-deductible.
760
00:33:52,525 --> 00:33:54,221
Has the IRS
ever been through here?
761
00:33:54,295 --> 00:33:56,593
Ever since United Way
got taken to the cleaners,
762
00:33:56,664 --> 00:33:58,029
the Feds have clamped down.
763
00:33:58,098 --> 00:34:00,259
The institute
was audited a year ago.
764
00:34:00,334 --> 00:34:02,199
Not a penny out of place.
765
00:34:02,269 --> 00:34:05,205
When a donation comes in, how
soon before it makes its way
766
00:34:05,273 --> 00:34:06,672
into the institute's account?
767
00:34:06,740 --> 00:34:08,264
Within 48 hours.
768
00:34:08,342 --> 00:34:10,867
Even at 3%,
every dime of interest counts.
769
00:34:11,111 --> 00:34:12,704
And these statements
are current?
770
00:34:12,881 --> 00:34:14,906
The most recent ones
came in last week.
771
00:34:14,983 --> 00:34:17,008
Why, is something
wrong with the arithmetic?
772
00:34:17,085 --> 00:34:19,212
It's short a $200,000 check.
773
00:34:21,723 --> 00:34:22,782
I called Brinkman.
774
00:34:22,859 --> 00:34:25,327
The check never showed up
in the institute's books
775
00:34:25,394 --> 00:34:27,487
'cause it was made out
to the Jared Foundation,
776
00:34:27,563 --> 00:34:28,757
named after Brinkmars son.
777
00:34:28,831 --> 00:34:30,162
Did you check the records
778
00:34:30,233 --> 00:34:31,757
with the Attorney
General's office?
779
00:34:31,834 --> 00:34:34,201
The Jared Foundation
was incorporated this year,
780
00:34:34,271 --> 00:34:35,761
with Gordan Bryce as president
781
00:34:35,839 --> 00:34:37,363
and Kathy McKenna
as vice-president.
782
00:34:37,441 --> 00:34:39,340
But the articles
of incorporation
783
00:34:39,408 --> 00:34:41,308
were amended a week
after Kathy's murder.
784
00:34:41,377 --> 00:34:43,107
Guess who's
the new vice-president?
785
00:34:43,180 --> 00:34:44,545
Marcia Hendricks.
786
00:34:44,615 --> 00:34:46,708
Nice bump for a secretary.
787
00:34:46,884 --> 00:34:48,545
Well, we'll see
if Miss Hendricks
788
00:34:48,619 --> 00:34:50,177
will join us for coffee.
789
00:34:50,954 --> 00:34:53,651
I have been with Gordon Bryce
790
00:34:54,092 --> 00:34:57,926
since the day the institute
opened its doors.
791
00:34:59,063 --> 00:35:01,395
I earned that promotion.
792
00:35:01,466 --> 00:35:03,435
Miss Hendricks, what you earn
793
00:35:03,502 --> 00:35:06,164
is a place in line
at the Rikers cafeteria.
794
00:35:06,305 --> 00:35:07,704
That's the prize you get
795
00:35:07,773 --> 00:35:10,003
for finding
Mr. Bryce an alibi.
796
00:35:10,241 --> 00:35:14,178
I'm not lying.
He was there at 11:00.
797
00:35:14,747 --> 00:35:17,545
You spend your evenings
staring at clocks?
798
00:35:18,384 --> 00:35:20,784
I read captions on TV.
799
00:35:21,755 --> 00:35:25,191
The news just started
when Gordon arrived.
800
00:35:25,926 --> 00:35:27,553
And when he left?
801
00:35:29,930 --> 00:35:33,492
I didn't see the time.
It was morning.
802
00:35:34,101 --> 00:35:36,592
He told us he left
long before that.
803
00:35:38,105 --> 00:35:41,905
Gordon wouldn't say
that we were intimate.
804
00:35:42,276 --> 00:35:44,244
He does not
want to embarrass me.
805
00:35:44,312 --> 00:35:46,041
He is a gentleman.
806
00:35:46,113 --> 00:35:48,513
A gentleman
does not smash the head
807
00:35:48,582 --> 00:35:50,914
of a 21-year-old girl
into a brick wall.
808
00:35:54,423 --> 00:35:56,687
You are wrong about Gordon.
809
00:35:56,825 --> 00:35:59,225
He gave everything
to the institute.
810
00:36:00,495 --> 00:36:03,465
You just want to
destroy it all.
811
00:36:03,533 --> 00:36:06,297
Miss Hendricks, if that is
the story you want to stay with
812
00:36:06,369 --> 00:36:07,529
I'm sure Mr. Bryce
813
00:36:07,603 --> 00:36:09,628
can refer you
to a good attorney.
814
00:36:13,510 --> 00:36:15,033
Ben, a minute.
815
00:36:16,379 --> 00:36:19,280
Now, I'm just dipping my toes
in the water here.
816
00:36:19,349 --> 00:36:20,817
Gordon Bryce and I would like
817
00:36:20,884 --> 00:36:22,613
to explore alternatives
to trial.
818
00:36:22,686 --> 00:36:24,176
Alternatives?
819
00:36:24,521 --> 00:36:25,852
He doesn't want to become
820
00:36:25,923 --> 00:36:27,788
the Jim Bakker of
the Bryce Institute.
821
00:36:27,858 --> 00:36:29,883
He doesn't want
to take it down with him.
822
00:36:29,960 --> 00:36:32,623
I'm surprised you didn't
guarantee him an acquittal.
823
00:36:32,931 --> 00:36:34,796
He thinks by then
it'll be too late.
824
00:36:34,866 --> 00:36:36,959
He wants it off
the front page now
825
00:36:37,035 --> 00:36:39,902
no matter what the sacrifice
to him personally.
826
00:36:40,005 --> 00:36:41,974
What happened, Arthur?
Did his check bounce?
827
00:36:42,041 --> 00:36:44,066
I can't see you
letting an innocent client
828
00:36:44,143 --> 00:36:45,837
ride to prison on a principle.
829
00:36:45,910 --> 00:36:47,275
Of course he's innocent.
830
00:36:47,345 --> 00:36:49,506
We're talking damage control.
831
00:36:49,914 --> 00:36:51,382
Now, he'll plead to man two.
832
00:36:51,450 --> 00:36:52,883
He serves 18 months.
833
00:36:52,985 --> 00:36:54,976
Community service
for the balance.
834
00:36:55,054 --> 00:36:57,420
That's the sacrifice
he's willing to make.
835
00:36:57,523 --> 00:36:59,013
Tell Bryce no deal.
836
00:36:59,091 --> 00:37:01,253
He should've thought
of damage control
837
00:37:01,328 --> 00:37:03,262
before he laid his hands
on Kathy McKenna.
838
00:37:04,731 --> 00:37:06,699
You want to play
king of the mountain
839
00:37:06,767 --> 00:37:08,701
with Arthur Gold,
do it on your own time.
840
00:37:08,769 --> 00:37:10,135
When he offers you a plea,
841
00:37:10,204 --> 00:37:11,671
sit down, discuss it with him.
842
00:37:11,739 --> 00:37:14,606
We squeezed Marcia Hendricks,
out pops Arthur Gold.
843
00:37:14,675 --> 00:37:16,165
Obviously, Bryce doesn't think
844
00:37:16,244 --> 00:37:18,609
that Hendricks can go another
round without cracking.
845
00:37:18,678 --> 00:37:21,512
Maybe he doesn't want to
put her through the ordeal.
846
00:37:21,582 --> 00:37:23,209
Chivalry didn't end
with Camelot.
847
00:37:23,284 --> 00:37:25,377
It's more likely
that he's afraid
848
00:37:25,453 --> 00:37:27,853
she'll put him away for a
lot longer than 18 months.
849
00:37:27,922 --> 00:37:29,914
By not corroborating his alibi.
850
00:37:30,025 --> 00:37:32,789
Arthur Gold can make
his case without her.
851
00:37:32,895 --> 00:37:35,489
Not if she has direct evidence
to implicate Bryce.
852
00:37:35,564 --> 00:37:37,031
You'll need more
than "open sesame"
853
00:37:37,099 --> 00:37:38,361
to get her to talk.
854
00:37:38,434 --> 00:37:40,062
I think I can convince
a grand jury
855
00:37:40,136 --> 00:37:42,969
that woman had a lot to gain
from McKenna's death.
856
00:37:45,909 --> 00:37:48,036
This is completely out of line.
857
00:37:48,378 --> 00:37:50,505
The power to charge
a grand jury
858
00:37:50,580 --> 00:37:53,048
does not mean you can use it
to commit blackmail.
859
00:37:53,283 --> 00:37:54,773
As opposed to your client,
860
00:37:54,851 --> 00:37:56,751
I am not in it
for personal gain.
861
00:37:57,253 --> 00:37:58,447
Miss Hendricks,
862
00:37:59,123 --> 00:38:01,318
Kathy McKenna was your rival,
863
00:38:01,525 --> 00:38:03,550
professionally
and romantically.
864
00:38:03,627 --> 00:38:06,528
You had every reason
to cover up her murder.
865
00:38:06,931 --> 00:38:08,762
You can barely
prove obstruction,
866
00:38:08,833 --> 00:38:10,392
let alone conspiracy.
867
00:38:11,670 --> 00:38:14,468
The jury will draw
their own conclusions, sir.
868
00:38:17,075 --> 00:38:19,601
Marcia, when you hold on
to a drowning man,
869
00:38:19,679 --> 00:38:21,339
he drags you under.
870
00:38:40,033 --> 00:38:42,001
No charges. Immunity.
871
00:38:49,144 --> 00:38:52,510
Gordon never came
to my apartment.
872
00:38:52,980 --> 00:38:54,709
You mean after he killed Kathy?
873
00:39:01,289 --> 00:39:04,156
I couldn't let him go to jail.
874
00:39:05,627 --> 00:39:09,394
Without Gordon,
there would be no institute.
875
00:39:09,798 --> 00:39:11,493
And in return
for lying for him,
876
00:39:11,901 --> 00:39:13,334
he promoted you?
877
00:39:15,204 --> 00:39:17,798
I didn't need to lie.
878
00:39:18,808 --> 00:39:20,571
I can do that job.
879
00:39:21,311 --> 00:39:23,404
I would've been good at it.
880
00:39:23,647 --> 00:39:27,013
Miss Hendricks, how did
you know that he killed Kathy?
881
00:39:43,901 --> 00:39:45,994
I know what Gordon said
882
00:39:48,173 --> 00:39:51,665
to Kathy that day on the phone.
883
00:39:53,445 --> 00:39:55,436
You saw him at the phone?
884
00:39:59,651 --> 00:40:01,516
Then how do you know
what he said?
885
00:40:03,855 --> 00:40:07,417
Marcia, you must
tell them everything.
886
00:40:13,533 --> 00:40:16,935
I kept the printout
from the TDD.
887
00:40:19,640 --> 00:40:21,904
She kept transcripts
of every conversation
888
00:40:21,976 --> 00:40:24,069
that Bryce had with Kathy
from his office.
889
00:40:24,144 --> 00:40:25,668
Nearly three years' won'th.
890
00:40:25,746 --> 00:40:26,873
Including the threats
891
00:40:26,948 --> 00:40:28,380
we found in Kathy's apartment.
892
00:40:28,449 --> 00:40:30,041
Remind me
to bypass the switchboard.
893
00:40:30,117 --> 00:40:31,209
What was she planning to do?
894
00:40:31,285 --> 00:40:32,582
To have them bound in leather?
895
00:40:32,653 --> 00:40:35,144
Obviously, he was obsessed
with keeping her in his fold.
896
00:40:35,222 --> 00:40:37,885
Well, he wasrt the only one
with an obsession.
897
00:40:38,560 --> 00:40:40,551
Yeah. Well, it nearly
paid off for Marcia.
898
00:40:40,629 --> 00:40:42,927
Arthur Gold wants to
make sure it won't for us.
899
00:40:42,998 --> 00:40:44,192
Motion to suppress.
900
00:40:44,266 --> 00:40:45,528
Motion to...
901
00:40:45,767 --> 00:40:47,668
Arthur's true to form.
902
00:40:48,704 --> 00:40:51,832
Three words, Your Honor.
Expectation of privacy.
903
00:40:52,341 --> 00:40:53,638
And without it,
904
00:40:53,709 --> 00:40:55,108
we might as well be zoo animals
905
00:40:55,177 --> 00:40:57,646
living our lives
on public display.
906
00:40:57,814 --> 00:41:00,976
Uh, Your Honor,
in Wisconsin v. Rewolinski,
907
00:41:01,217 --> 00:41:03,412
a suspect called his wife
908
00:41:03,486 --> 00:41:06,422
on the police department's
own telephone for the deaf.
909
00:41:06,490 --> 00:41:09,084
Now, that individual's
expectation of privacy
910
00:41:09,159 --> 00:41:11,059
was greater than Mr. Bryce's.
911
00:41:11,128 --> 00:41:13,028
Yet the
Supreme Court of Wisconsin
912
00:41:13,096 --> 00:41:15,462
allowed
those transcripts at trial.
913
00:41:15,532 --> 00:41:16,727
I tend to agree.
914
00:41:16,801 --> 00:41:19,895
Anyone fool enough to make
incriminating statements
915
00:41:19,971 --> 00:41:21,768
on a police statiors telephone
916
00:41:21,839 --> 00:41:23,636
deserves what he gets.
917
00:41:23,708 --> 00:41:25,107
But Mr. Bryce was calling
918
00:41:25,176 --> 00:41:27,042
from the sanctity
of his own office.
919
00:41:27,112 --> 00:41:30,206
He had every right to expect
that no one would eavesdrop.
920
00:41:30,316 --> 00:41:32,306
Least of all
a jealous employee.
921
00:41:32,383 --> 00:41:34,317
Who acted on her own behalf
922
00:41:34,385 --> 00:41:36,718
and no matter how
reprehensible those actions,
923
00:41:36,789 --> 00:41:38,950
their result isn't subject
to suppression.
924
00:41:39,024 --> 00:41:41,458
What's reprehensible
is the state taking advantage
925
00:41:41,527 --> 00:41:43,017
of someone's disability
926
00:41:43,095 --> 00:41:45,154
to violate
a defendant's rights.
927
00:41:45,865 --> 00:41:49,164
Because they rely
on TDD devices,
928
00:41:49,235 --> 00:41:51,362
should the deaf
be more vulnerable
929
00:41:51,438 --> 00:41:53,303
to state-sanctioned
invasions of privacy?
930
00:41:53,373 --> 00:41:55,706
The evidence isn't being used
against Ms. McKenna,
931
00:41:55,776 --> 00:41:57,539
but against Mr. Bryce.
932
00:41:57,611 --> 00:42:00,739
Whose only disability is a
callous disregard for human life.
933
00:42:00,815 --> 00:42:02,543
Your Honor, that's gratuitous.
934
00:42:03,917 --> 00:42:06,978
I was thinking the same thing
about your motion.
935
00:42:07,588 --> 00:42:08,919
It's denied.
936
00:42:11,359 --> 00:42:12,849
In any event, Your Honor,
937
00:42:12,927 --> 00:42:14,690
the transcripts are irrelevant.
938
00:42:14,762 --> 00:42:16,196
For all anyone knows,
939
00:42:16,264 --> 00:42:18,289
they were manufactured
by Marcia Hendricks
940
00:42:18,367 --> 00:42:19,857
to blackmail my client.
941
00:42:19,935 --> 00:42:23,132
And that is an issue of fact to
be determined at trial, Your Honor.
942
00:42:23,739 --> 00:42:27,676
Point, set, match,
Mr. Gold. Goodbye.
943
00:42:31,581 --> 00:42:33,708
Ben, if you're not prepared
to meet us halfway,
944
00:42:33,783 --> 00:42:36,411
we'll be more than happy to
take our chances with a jury.
945
00:42:36,486 --> 00:42:38,613
Gordors reputation
still has some mileage.
946
00:42:38,688 --> 00:42:40,519
Not with Marcia Hendricks
writing his bio.
947
00:42:40,590 --> 00:42:41,955
Oh, the jury will think
948
00:42:42,024 --> 00:42:43,787
she's a desperate woman
seeking revenge.
949
00:42:43,860 --> 00:42:46,421
They may even suspect her
of killing McKenna herself.
950
00:42:46,530 --> 00:42:48,498
With your client's gloves?
951
00:42:50,868 --> 00:42:51,994
Man one.
952
00:42:52,069 --> 00:42:54,230
That's 81l3- to-25.
953
00:42:54,304 --> 00:42:55,897
Considering
the savagery of his crime,
954
00:42:55,974 --> 00:42:57,236
it's a gift.
Ben...
955
00:42:57,308 --> 00:42:58,639
Stop it, Arthur.
956
00:42:59,277 --> 00:43:01,006
I accept the offer.
957
00:43:01,179 --> 00:43:02,203
Gordon.
958
00:43:02,280 --> 00:43:03,975
I accept the offer.
959
00:43:07,218 --> 00:43:09,379
All right.
But we reserve the right
960
00:43:09,454 --> 00:43:11,547
to seek sentence reduction
down the line.
961
00:43:11,623 --> 00:43:14,559
Mr. Bryce, as you probably
know from your attorney,
962
00:43:14,627 --> 00:43:16,117
the condition of a plea bargain
963
00:43:16,195 --> 00:43:18,322
is that you recite
the facts of your crime.
964
00:43:19,799 --> 00:43:21,824
Whatever it takes
to spare the institute.
965
00:43:21,901 --> 00:43:23,198
Gordon.
966
00:43:24,004 --> 00:43:26,700
And unless your admission
of guilt is unambiguous,
967
00:43:26,773 --> 00:43:29,173
there can be
no plea bargain, sir.
968
00:43:30,510 --> 00:43:31,568
Kath...
969
00:43:33,447 --> 00:43:35,006
I taught her to speak.
970
00:43:35,283 --> 00:43:36,875
I taught her
to present herself.
971
00:43:36,951 --> 00:43:39,350
She couldn't even order
a meal in a restaurant.
972
00:43:39,419 --> 00:43:41,546
Mr. Bryce, please.
You're talking about her
973
00:43:41,621 --> 00:43:43,111
as if she were a trained seal.
974
00:43:43,190 --> 00:43:44,180
No.
975
00:43:46,194 --> 00:43:48,355
That woman shared with me.
976
00:43:49,630 --> 00:43:50,995
Everything.
977
00:43:52,567 --> 00:43:54,900
She was there for my institute.
978
00:43:55,370 --> 00:43:56,894
She convinced me
979
00:43:56,972 --> 00:43:58,837
that our work
really mattered to her.
980
00:43:59,641 --> 00:44:01,541
Are you blaming her, sir?
981
00:44:01,643 --> 00:44:04,306
You don't know what it took
982
00:44:04,380 --> 00:44:06,940
to pull that
childrers program together.
983
00:44:07,717 --> 00:44:09,684
I was after people for funds
984
00:44:09,751 --> 00:44:11,742
till they hated
the sight of me.
985
00:44:11,820 --> 00:44:13,618
And then, one day,
986
00:44:14,624 --> 00:44:17,855
she's off to California
with that hearing man.
987
00:44:19,062 --> 00:44:21,189
Nothing that I did mattered.
988
00:44:21,264 --> 00:44:22,526
All I was good for
989
00:44:22,599 --> 00:44:24,727
was some stupid
letter of recommendation.
990
00:44:33,044 --> 00:44:34,773
I picked up her scarf.
991
00:44:36,147 --> 00:44:37,944
I wanted her to stay.
992
00:44:41,485 --> 00:44:43,579
I don't know what happened.
993
00:44:56,569 --> 00:44:58,628
I should be able
to get the sentence reduced
994
00:44:58,704 --> 00:45:00,001
without breaking a sweat.
995
00:45:00,072 --> 00:45:02,097
It is just a matter
of packing the parole hearing
996
00:45:02,174 --> 00:45:03,335
with character witnesses.
997
00:45:03,410 --> 00:45:06,208
I'll be there too, Arthur,
with photos of Kathy McKenna.
998
00:45:06,813 --> 00:45:08,781
Will you get off
your high horse, Ben?
999
00:45:08,849 --> 00:45:11,340
What has the man got to do
to prove his sincerity?
1000
00:45:11,418 --> 00:45:13,318
Go to Africa
like Albert Schweitzer?
1001
00:45:13,387 --> 00:45:15,514
For Schweitzer,
helping people was a calling.
1002
00:45:15,589 --> 00:45:17,250
For Bryce,
it was a means to an end.
1003
00:45:17,324 --> 00:45:19,519
No good deed comes
free and clear, Ben.
1004
00:45:19,593 --> 00:45:21,720
The man gets the job done.
1005
00:45:22,029 --> 00:45:24,692
Now I'd love to stand here
and discuss altruism with you,
1006
00:45:24,766 --> 00:45:26,324
but I'm late for a luncheon.
1007
00:45:26,401 --> 00:45:28,528
Charity fundraiser
at The Plaza.
1008
00:45:28,603 --> 00:45:30,195
There's still
some tickets available.
1009
00:45:30,271 --> 00:45:31,829
$500 a plate.
1010
00:45:38,581 --> 00:45:40,879
And every penny
of it tax-deductible.
