Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:00,053 --> 00:00:01,771
Previously, on "Tommy..."
2
00:00:01,795 --> 00:00:05,495
I need a deep dive. Everything
you can get on her.
3
00:00:05,519 --> 00:00:07,919
Arturo Lopez just got
shanked in county jail... he's dead.
4
00:00:07,943 --> 00:00:10,245
Arturo knew where a ton
of bodies were buried.
5
00:00:10,269 --> 00:00:11,636
You're looking into
the two guys who killed him,
6
00:00:11,660 --> 00:00:13,294
whether they were paid off?
7
00:00:13,318 --> 00:00:17,010
I need some information to
lock it down... about this guy.
8
00:00:17,034 --> 00:00:19,575
- Who's Edward Wilson?
- I was wondering if you could check out
9
00:00:19,599 --> 00:00:22,278
the murder book collection
at the LAPD homicide library?
10
00:00:22,302 --> 00:00:24,147
Hey, this is Vincent.
11
00:00:24,171 --> 00:00:25,181
Sorry I missed your call.
12
00:00:25,205 --> 00:00:26,482
Hey.
13
00:00:26,506 --> 00:00:27,850
It's Blake.
14
00:00:27,874 --> 00:00:29,786
I'm officially worried.
15
00:00:29,810 --> 00:00:31,682
Vincent?
16
00:00:49,953 --> 00:00:51,964
Yo, put the money on
the counter and step back!
17
00:00:51,988 --> 00:00:53,787
Do it!
18
00:00:54,624 --> 00:00:56,375
Yo, you got any more under the drawer?!
19
00:00:56,399 --> 00:00:57,548
Working on it.
20
00:00:57,572 --> 00:00:59,105
Move! All that!
21
00:00:59,129 --> 00:01:00,506
Yo, let me get all that!
22
00:01:00,530 --> 00:01:03,609
Yeah, I said on the
counter! I said on the counter!
23
00:01:03,633 --> 00:01:05,735
Yeah, uh-huh! Yo!
24
00:01:05,759 --> 00:01:07,501
- Let me get all that!
- Yo!
25
00:01:07,525 --> 00:01:08,748
Leave the man alone.
26
00:01:08,772 --> 00:01:09,814
Get out of here, man!
27
00:01:09,838 --> 00:01:11,144
Put away that knife, man!
28
00:01:11,168 --> 00:01:12,407
Yo, I said leave!
29
00:01:14,277 --> 00:01:15,421
You heard me?
30
00:01:15,445 --> 00:01:17,023
Man's just trying to make a living.
31
00:01:17,047 --> 00:01:18,312
Drop it.
32
00:01:19,397 --> 00:01:21,894
As one of the Southland's
top high-school pitchers,
33
00:01:21,918 --> 00:01:24,664
Jovani Perez spends a lot
of time on the baseball diamond
34
00:01:24,688 --> 00:01:26,332
striking out opposing batters.
35
00:01:26,356 --> 00:01:28,634
Today, however,
he played a new position...
36
00:01:28,658 --> 00:01:32,271
local hero, when he foiled a
robbery at this corner grocery.
37
00:01:32,295 --> 00:01:34,386
Can you tell us in your
own words what happened?
38
00:01:34,410 --> 00:01:37,110
Well, uh, you know, I was just
buying some milk after practice,
39
00:01:37,134 --> 00:01:39,011
'cause I like to get my calcium,
40
00:01:39,035 --> 00:01:42,682
and I saw this going down,
and just acted on instinct.
41
00:01:42,706 --> 00:01:44,717
Plus, I been going to this
store for a while, and I...
42
00:01:44,741 --> 00:01:47,153
Hey, we got to talk.
43
00:01:47,177 --> 00:01:49,589
- Fellas, we're filming here.
- Sorry, buddy. Interview's over.
44
00:01:49,613 --> 00:01:50,990
How old are you?
45
00:01:51,386 --> 00:01:52,859
Um, 17.
46
00:01:52,883 --> 00:01:55,094
So you got no license for this firearm?
47
00:01:55,724 --> 00:01:57,226
No, sir.
48
00:01:57,721 --> 00:02:00,479
Sorry, kid, you're under arrest.
49
00:02:01,491 --> 00:02:03,269
That was the scene earlier today
50
00:02:03,293 --> 00:02:04,337
when a young man...
51
00:02:04,361 --> 00:02:06,272
What time is the Perez hearing?
52
00:02:06,296 --> 00:02:08,107
...stopped a robbery at a local store...
53
00:02:08,131 --> 00:02:10,042
Well, the D.D.A. just called.
54
00:02:10,066 --> 00:02:12,712
He wants me to support Perez
as a candidate for gun court.
55
00:02:14,339 --> 00:02:15,548
I'll get it.
56
00:02:16,574 --> 00:02:18,217
Hi, I'm Kiley.
57
00:02:18,241 --> 00:02:19,252
You must be Kate.
58
00:02:19,276 --> 00:02:20,444
That's me.
59
00:02:20,468 --> 00:02:21,672
Welcome. Thanks.
60
00:02:21,696 --> 00:02:24,991
My mom's on the phone, some emergency,
61
00:02:25,015 --> 00:02:27,960
or as I like to call it, Tuesday night.
62
00:02:27,984 --> 00:02:29,662
No problem.
63
00:02:29,686 --> 00:02:31,664
Uh, I wasn't sure what you'd be serving,
64
00:02:31,688 --> 00:02:33,466
so I brought red and white.
65
00:02:33,490 --> 00:02:35,368
Huh, let's do both.
66
00:02:35,392 --> 00:02:37,003
I like the way you think.
67
00:02:38,361 --> 00:02:39,338
Hello.
68
00:02:39,362 --> 00:02:40,606
Hey.
69
00:02:40,630 --> 00:02:43,075
Sorry, I'm, uh, dealing with this kid
70
00:02:43,099 --> 00:02:45,519
who stopped a robbery
with an illegal gun.
71
00:02:45,543 --> 00:02:47,647
- It's a big mess.
- You are kidding.
72
00:02:47,671 --> 00:02:49,482
You are working the Jovani Perez case?
73
00:02:49,506 --> 00:02:51,217
How do you know Jovani Perez?
74
00:02:51,241 --> 00:02:52,985
Who's Jovani Perez?
75
00:02:53,009 --> 00:02:54,783
17 years old.
76
00:02:54,807 --> 00:02:57,456
He's got a fastball that runs to 92,
77
00:02:57,480 --> 00:03:00,526
a 12-6 curve, and a late-breaking slider
78
00:03:00,550 --> 00:03:02,562
he can locate to his glove side.
79
00:03:02,586 --> 00:03:04,564
Do you know what any of that means?
80
00:03:04,588 --> 00:03:05,765
I have no idea.
81
00:03:05,789 --> 00:03:07,133
It means he's a phenomenal pitcher.
82
00:03:07,879 --> 00:03:10,469
MLB scouts are salivating over him.
83
00:03:10,493 --> 00:03:12,805
Every agent wants to lock him
down once he graduates.
84
00:03:12,829 --> 00:03:14,508
He's looking at
85
00:03:14,532 --> 00:03:17,139
a $3 to $4 million signing bonus.
86
00:03:19,002 --> 00:03:20,880
Unless you put him in jail.
87
00:03:21,268 --> 00:03:23,049
Well, concealed carry
88
00:03:23,073 --> 00:03:25,218
of an illegal firearm is a felony.
89
00:03:25,242 --> 00:03:27,186
So, at the high end,
he could get three years.
90
00:03:27,210 --> 00:03:28,525
God.
91
00:03:28,803 --> 00:03:31,824
But the D.A. wants
to make him the poster child
92
00:03:31,848 --> 00:03:33,523
for this new diversion program.
93
00:03:33,547 --> 00:03:35,299
What, so-so he wouldn't go to prison?
94
00:03:35,323 --> 00:03:37,129
Well, it's a strict probation.
95
00:03:37,153 --> 00:03:38,531
He will have to work for it,
96
00:03:38,555 --> 00:03:39,932
but no, no-no prison.
97
00:03:39,956 --> 00:03:41,780
I think it's a good idea.
98
00:03:41,804 --> 00:03:43,769
Kid's, uh, got a clean record.
99
00:03:43,793 --> 00:03:46,821
He did singlehandedly stop a robbery.
100
00:03:46,845 --> 00:03:49,123
And he gets top grades and
he lives with his mom and sister
101
00:03:49,147 --> 00:03:50,658
in a one-bedroom apartment.
102
00:03:50,682 --> 00:03:52,360
You should support it.
103
00:03:52,384 --> 00:03:54,462
How do you know so much about this kid?
104
00:03:54,486 --> 00:03:57,465
I have been following Jovani
since he was 12.
105
00:03:57,489 --> 00:03:59,800
We have arrested people for less.
106
00:04:00,767 --> 00:04:02,176
What?
107
00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:05,306
It's just, I've never seen
you with anyone except Dad.
108
00:04:05,854 --> 00:04:07,908
You know, you look happy.
109
00:04:07,932 --> 00:04:09,477
Doesn't she look happy?
110
00:04:09,501 --> 00:04:10,673
- Hmm?
- Yes, she does.
111
00:04:12,003 --> 00:04:14,654
In her own subtle way.
112
00:04:23,580 --> 00:04:26,494
You really think you'll
keep Jovani out of prison?
113
00:04:26,875 --> 00:04:28,752
I'm considering it.
114
00:04:30,047 --> 00:04:32,614
That would be amazing.
115
00:04:34,526 --> 00:04:36,968
Any chance you could
arrange an introduction?
116
00:04:37,629 --> 00:04:39,340
Um, well, I thought you couldn't deal
117
00:04:39,364 --> 00:04:40,608
with him until after he graduates?
118
00:04:40,632 --> 00:04:42,677
I can informally advise
119
00:04:42,701 --> 00:04:44,311
if we get the chance to meet.
120
00:04:45,102 --> 00:04:47,014
You know I can't do that.
121
00:04:48,773 --> 00:04:51,218
Yeah, I know, I know.
It's just, he's a...
122
00:04:52,025 --> 00:04:54,221
He's, like, a potential Hall of Famer.
123
00:04:54,245 --> 00:04:56,590
Client like that
could change your career.
124
00:04:57,053 --> 00:04:59,053
But I get it, I get it.
125
00:05:02,744 --> 00:05:04,587
Thanks for having me over.
126
00:05:22,941 --> 00:05:30,941
Synced & corrected by -robtor-
www.addic7ed.com
127
00:05:35,355 --> 00:05:36,364
Seriously?
128
00:05:36,388 --> 00:05:38,399
You want to put this Perez kid
into a diversion program?
129
00:05:38,423 --> 00:05:39,934
Tell me why I shouldn't.
130
00:05:39,958 --> 00:05:42,737
He had an illegal nine
millimeter with a full clip.
131
00:05:42,761 --> 00:05:45,039
I-I think that merits more
than just a stern tone.
132
00:05:45,063 --> 00:05:46,174
His neighborhood in East L.A.
133
00:05:46,198 --> 00:05:48,209
had an 18% spike in assaults last year.
134
00:05:48,233 --> 00:05:49,911
It was for self-protection.
135
00:05:49,935 --> 00:05:51,779
Sure, let's just arm everyone in L.A.
136
00:05:51,803 --> 00:05:53,114
That'll bring down assaults.
137
00:05:53,138 --> 00:05:54,312
He has no priors.
138
00:05:54,336 --> 00:05:56,484
What, you like this kid
because he plays ball, huh?
139
00:05:56,508 --> 00:05:58,920
I like him 'cause he's a good
kid who just stopped a robbery.
140
00:05:58,944 --> 00:06:01,589
Programs like this are being
used in Brooklyn, D.C., Detroit.
141
00:06:01,613 --> 00:06:03,057
L.A. shouldn't fall behind.
142
00:06:03,081 --> 00:06:05,593
It's a chance to be a leader
for big-city chiefs nationally.
143
00:06:05,617 --> 00:06:08,514
It's one thing to throw heat,
it's another to pack it.
144
00:06:08,538 --> 00:06:10,898
I am not looking to go
soft on guns, Cooper.
145
00:06:10,922 --> 00:06:13,234
I don't feel good about locking
up kids who are scared
146
00:06:13,258 --> 00:06:15,578
of getting mugged on their
way home from school.
147
00:06:15,602 --> 00:06:16,942
So what do we do?
148
00:06:16,966 --> 00:06:19,933
Have Blake put out a statement
announcing my support for this.
149
00:06:19,957 --> 00:06:21,134
I want it to land.
150
00:06:21,158 --> 00:06:22,469
I'm on it.
151
00:06:22,493 --> 00:06:23,837
You know anything about Perez?
152
00:06:23,861 --> 00:06:24,971
He likes his calcium.
153
00:06:25,493 --> 00:06:27,640
I want you go to his hearing as my rep.
154
00:06:27,664 --> 00:06:30,910
I want the D.A. and him
to know that we're behind this.
155
00:06:30,934 --> 00:06:32,045
You got it.
156
00:06:32,751 --> 00:06:34,547
You're gonna get pushback from the union.
157
00:06:34,571 --> 00:06:37,150
Let's call our buddy Lou Woods in.
158
00:06:37,174 --> 00:06:38,518
I'll walk him through it.
159
00:06:38,542 --> 00:06:39,881
Oh, it's not just Woods.
160
00:06:39,905 --> 00:06:41,755
We're talking a lot of the rank and file.
161
00:06:41,779 --> 00:06:43,523
To them, this is just a kid with a gun,
162
00:06:43,547 --> 00:06:44,791
who doesn't deserve a break.
163
00:06:44,815 --> 00:06:46,726
Kids do deserve breaks, Donn.
164
00:06:46,750 --> 00:06:48,795
Not the ones who carry guns.
165
00:06:48,819 --> 00:06:50,864
Because stats show once they start that,
166
00:06:50,888 --> 00:06:52,532
it becomes a pattern.
167
00:06:52,556 --> 00:06:54,534
Odds are he's gonna pick up again,
168
00:06:54,558 --> 00:06:56,269
sooner rather than later.
169
00:06:56,293 --> 00:06:58,160
I've made my decision.
170
00:07:05,867 --> 00:07:07,814
Hey, the boss wants to put out
171
00:07:07,838 --> 00:07:09,516
a statement supporting
the gun diversion program.
172
00:07:09,540 --> 00:07:11,084
Have you got a minute?
173
00:07:11,331 --> 00:07:12,974
Uh, sure.
174
00:07:14,711 --> 00:07:17,334
You remember Vincent, right?
175
00:07:17,358 --> 00:07:19,526
Uh, print reporter?
176
00:07:19,550 --> 00:07:20,860
Vaguely Italian?
177
00:07:20,884 --> 00:07:23,863
He was looking into
the death of Arturo Lopez.
178
00:07:23,887 --> 00:07:27,667
And, uh, two days ago,
he asked me for help,
179
00:07:27,691 --> 00:07:30,870
and I haven't been able
to reach him since.
180
00:07:31,184 --> 00:07:33,840
He's, like... missing.
181
00:07:33,864 --> 00:07:35,762
What do you mean "missing"?
182
00:07:35,786 --> 00:07:38,678
We were supposed to meet
in a bar, and he never showed.
183
00:07:38,702 --> 00:07:40,647
Then I went to his apartment,
184
00:07:40,671 --> 00:07:43,073
and he texted me that he was home sick,
185
00:07:43,097 --> 00:07:46,486
but I was in his apartment
and he wasn't there.
186
00:07:46,510 --> 00:07:48,988
So, he blew you off,
187
00:07:49,012 --> 00:07:50,757
and then lied about where he was?
188
00:07:50,781 --> 00:07:52,704
Does that really add up to "missing"?
189
00:07:52,728 --> 00:07:54,828
Vincent was worried last time
I-I talked to him.
190
00:07:54,852 --> 00:07:57,230
More than I've ever seen him, and I-I...
191
00:07:57,254 --> 00:07:59,599
I'm wondering if,
if I should tell the boss?
192
00:08:00,032 --> 00:08:02,368
If you tell her,
she'll start asking questions.
193
00:08:02,392 --> 00:08:04,304
About Vincent, Arturo,
194
00:08:04,328 --> 00:08:06,206
and the mayor.
195
00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:07,974
Just...
196
00:08:07,998 --> 00:08:09,943
give it another day or two.
197
00:08:09,967 --> 00:08:11,845
There are a lot of reasons
why Vincent would want you
198
00:08:11,869 --> 00:08:13,246
to think he was home when he wasn't.
199
00:08:13,270 --> 00:08:16,271
Um... he's probably fine.
200
00:08:20,077 --> 00:08:21,387
...and they've agreed to provide
201
00:08:21,411 --> 00:08:24,157
character references from
his coaches and teachers.
202
00:08:24,181 --> 00:08:26,826
Your Honor, with all this,
we think Mr. Perez is
203
00:08:26,850 --> 00:08:29,656
a strong inaugural candidate
for the diversion program.
204
00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:31,164
We believe it's time to treat
205
00:08:31,188 --> 00:08:34,191
youth offenders like Mr. Perez
in a more enlightened way.
206
00:08:34,215 --> 00:08:36,858
Mr. Perez... I'd like to hear from you.
207
00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:42,040
Are you willing to submit
to the probationary programming
208
00:08:42,064 --> 00:08:43,676
required by the gun court?
209
00:08:43,700 --> 00:08:44,811
Yes, ma'am.
210
00:08:44,835 --> 00:08:47,714
Are you willing to plead
guilty to illegal weapons
211
00:08:47,738 --> 00:08:49,883
possession in exchange
for that probation?
212
00:08:49,907 --> 00:08:51,985
- Yes, ma'am.
- Do you own or possess
213
00:08:52,009 --> 00:08:55,099
any weapons other than the one
used in yesterday's incident?
214
00:08:55,123 --> 00:08:56,332
No, ma'am.
215
00:08:56,356 --> 00:08:58,625
Given the fact that
Mr. Perez has no record,
216
00:08:58,649 --> 00:09:00,360
and has the support
217
00:09:00,384 --> 00:09:02,259
of Chief Thomas of the LAPD,
218
00:09:02,283 --> 00:09:05,732
I have no reason to see
this not working out.
219
00:09:05,756 --> 00:09:07,834
Court date's a week from today; meantime,
220
00:09:07,858 --> 00:09:11,070
I'm releasing Mr. Perez
on his own recognizance.
221
00:09:20,938 --> 00:09:22,582
Disculpe.
222
00:09:22,606 --> 00:09:24,250
I'm Jovani's mother.
223
00:09:24,839 --> 00:09:26,486
Mi hija, Daniella.
224
00:09:26,510 --> 00:09:28,454
El abogado...
225
00:09:28,478 --> 00:09:31,491
the lawyer said you are
with the police chief...
226
00:09:31,515 --> 00:09:33,426
- yes?
- That's right.
227
00:09:33,450 --> 00:09:34,928
Thank you for your help.
228
00:09:35,391 --> 00:09:37,552
Jovani would never hurt people.
229
00:09:38,739 --> 00:09:40,300
Your brother seems like a good kid.
230
00:09:40,324 --> 00:09:41,334
He is.
231
00:09:41,358 --> 00:09:42,602
I bet you are, too.
232
00:09:42,626 --> 00:09:43,836
Nice to meet you two.
233
00:09:43,860 --> 00:09:46,952
- I hope everything works out.
- Also, I just say
234
00:09:46,976 --> 00:09:48,942
hello to Kiley Mills.
235
00:09:48,966 --> 00:09:51,044
She is good friends with your chief, yes?
236
00:09:51,068 --> 00:09:52,245
I see the photos.
237
00:09:52,269 --> 00:09:53,246
"Photos"?
238
00:09:53,270 --> 00:09:54,714
On the computer.
239
00:09:54,738 --> 00:09:57,150
We are maybe to meet with Ms. Mills
240
00:09:57,174 --> 00:09:58,469
this afternoon.
241
00:09:58,493 --> 00:10:00,386
Please thank your chief for me.
242
00:10:00,410 --> 00:10:02,388
I'll let her know.
243
00:10:02,412 --> 00:10:04,157
One thing?
244
00:10:04,181 --> 00:10:05,325
If you don't mind.
245
00:10:05,349 --> 00:10:07,961
What website did you see these photos on?
246
00:10:07,985 --> 00:10:10,363
Boss! Boss, Diaz just called.
247
00:10:10,387 --> 00:10:11,564
Something you need to see.
248
00:10:11,588 --> 00:10:12,799
I got something, can it wait?
249
00:10:12,823 --> 00:10:14,467
Uh, you want to see this now.
250
00:10:14,491 --> 00:10:16,015
Um, come here.
251
00:10:18,295 --> 00:10:20,440
It was posted this morning.
252
00:10:20,464 --> 00:10:22,542
Who the hell took that?
253
00:10:22,566 --> 00:10:24,477
There's paparazzi all over town.
254
00:10:24,501 --> 00:10:25,700
It gets worse.
255
00:10:28,839 --> 00:10:31,117
- Is that from...
- From the hearing this morning.
256
00:10:31,141 --> 00:10:33,086
Tell Blake that I want to know
who's taking photos of me
257
00:10:33,110 --> 00:10:34,909
and selling them to the press.
258
00:10:38,861 --> 00:10:40,156
Thanks for coming in, Lou.
259
00:10:40,180 --> 00:10:42,262
Hey, Chief, uh...
260
00:10:42,286 --> 00:10:45,298
Are you actively trying
to piss off membership?
261
00:10:45,322 --> 00:10:47,367
'Cause I don't see why else
you'd give this kid a walk.
262
00:10:47,391 --> 00:10:49,636
Boy, I love our chats, Lou.
263
00:10:49,660 --> 00:10:51,084
It's not a walk.
264
00:10:51,108 --> 00:10:52,739
The numbers are clear:
Fewer guns on the street
265
00:10:52,763 --> 00:10:54,407
means fewer shootings.
266
00:10:54,431 --> 00:10:55,842
City to city, state to state.
267
00:10:55,866 --> 00:10:57,877
I am not talking about
not punishing these kids...
268
00:10:57,901 --> 00:10:59,045
You put
269
00:10:59,069 --> 00:11:01,681
a gun-carrying kid back on the street,
270
00:11:01,705 --> 00:11:04,384
you're undermining your officers
and eroding their trust in you
271
00:11:04,408 --> 00:11:05,989
even more than you already have.
272
00:11:06,013 --> 00:11:07,453
Sticking these kids in jail
273
00:11:07,477 --> 00:11:09,956
when they can't afford bail,
they can't afford lawyers,
274
00:11:09,980 --> 00:11:13,026
because they made a dumb
decision, it doesn't work.
275
00:11:13,050 --> 00:11:14,560
Of course it works.
276
00:11:14,584 --> 00:11:16,296
You seize the gun,
you leave the kid alone,
277
00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:17,738
he just goes and gets another gun.
278
00:11:17,762 --> 00:11:19,766
When I was in New York, for a year,
279
00:11:19,790 --> 00:11:22,201
our boss made us go
to Rikers every month.
280
00:11:22,225 --> 00:11:25,405
And I would ask these kids
what got them there,
281
00:11:25,429 --> 00:11:28,274
and most of them would say that
at some point in their life,
282
00:11:28,298 --> 00:11:30,610
they were just terrified.
283
00:11:30,634 --> 00:11:33,413
It's scary growing up
in those neighborhoods.
284
00:11:33,437 --> 00:11:35,315
Eventually they're gonna
act out of that fear, right?
285
00:11:35,339 --> 00:11:37,639
They're gonna take a gun
and throw it in their backpack.
286
00:11:38,675 --> 00:11:40,186
These are not criminals.
287
00:11:40,210 --> 00:11:41,587
I'll tell you what, though,
you imprison them,
288
00:11:41,611 --> 00:11:43,523
you turn them into criminals.
289
00:11:43,547 --> 00:11:45,458
We have to find a way to stop that.
290
00:11:45,482 --> 00:11:47,327
I'll tell you what I'm, uh,
having trouble with, Chief.
291
00:11:47,351 --> 00:11:48,795
Y-You talk about Rikers?
292
00:11:48,819 --> 00:11:51,064
Same thing here.
Thousands of black teenagers
293
00:11:51,088 --> 00:11:53,633
sitting in jail in this city every day,
294
00:11:53,657 --> 00:11:56,369
on charges not half as bad
as carrying a-a weapon,
295
00:11:56,393 --> 00:11:59,072
but suddenly we're telling
this photogenic star athlete,
296
00:11:59,096 --> 00:12:02,075
"Hey, you go on home,
enjoy yourself, cash in"?
297
00:12:02,099 --> 00:12:03,476
That's not right.
298
00:12:03,500 --> 00:12:05,078
I-I'm... I understand
what you're saying, Cooper,
299
00:12:05,102 --> 00:12:07,080
but we have to start somewhere, right?
300
00:12:07,104 --> 00:12:09,716
We put Perez in jail now,
301
00:12:09,740 --> 00:12:11,521
it's still not gonna help
those other kids.
302
00:12:11,545 --> 00:12:14,654
I am speaking on behalf of membership.
303
00:12:14,678 --> 00:12:17,357
You carry an illegal gun, you go to jail.
304
00:12:17,381 --> 00:12:20,548
I appreciate what you're saying,
Lou, we just disagree.
305
00:12:22,100 --> 00:12:23,796
Hey.
306
00:12:23,820 --> 00:12:26,099
- You saw Kiley at the hearing?
- Yeah.
307
00:12:26,123 --> 00:12:27,767
Was she talking to Jovani Perez?
308
00:12:27,791 --> 00:12:29,168
Not that I saw.
309
00:12:29,192 --> 00:12:32,472
But his mother said she's hoping
to meet with Kiley later today.
310
00:12:32,496 --> 00:12:33,945
Thanks.
311
00:12:43,037 --> 00:12:45,718
Chief? Mayor on line one.
312
00:12:45,742 --> 00:12:48,654
Tommy, I don't like locking up kids.
313
00:12:48,678 --> 00:12:49,989
I like kids.
314
00:12:50,013 --> 00:12:51,758
I like the diversion program.
315
00:12:51,782 --> 00:12:52,925
I like baseball.
316
00:12:52,949 --> 00:12:54,861
But this is just a mess.
317
00:12:54,885 --> 00:12:56,896
Sir, the policy is sound.
318
00:12:56,920 --> 00:13:00,117
Of course it is, but nobody's
talking about the policy
319
00:13:00,141 --> 00:13:02,402
when your friend is in the courtroom.
320
00:13:02,426 --> 00:13:05,505
- Mr. Mayor...
- It just looks bad.
321
00:13:05,529 --> 00:13:08,174
No, I'll tell you what looks bad
is people taking
322
00:13:08,198 --> 00:13:09,942
- surveillance photos of me, Mr. Mayor.
- Goes with the territory.
323
00:13:09,966 --> 00:13:12,245
You're a public figure in Los Angeles,
324
00:13:12,269 --> 00:13:13,379
Tommy. It happens.
325
00:13:13,403 --> 00:13:15,515
Mm, this felt a little more pointed.
326
00:13:15,539 --> 00:13:16,946
- She's being paranoid.
- Uh...
327
00:13:17,641 --> 00:13:19,185
Pictures happen.
328
00:13:19,209 --> 00:13:21,921
What can't happen is her hanging out
329
00:13:21,945 --> 00:13:24,457
with people you're arresting, okay?
330
00:13:24,481 --> 00:13:26,481
I got to go.
331
00:13:28,082 --> 00:13:31,297
Doug, enough with the Cyrano.
332
00:13:31,321 --> 00:13:33,166
She personalizes things.
333
00:13:33,190 --> 00:13:35,334
- Who doesn't?
- If this story develops,
334
00:13:35,358 --> 00:13:37,336
if it gets legs, you're gonna have to put
335
00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:38,626
some distance between you and her.
336
00:13:39,696 --> 00:13:41,262
Yeah.
337
00:13:43,139 --> 00:13:44,444
- Thanks.
- I just meant to call.
338
00:13:44,468 --> 00:13:45,968
I mean, you didn't have
to come all the way down.
339
00:13:45,992 --> 00:13:48,701
I, uh... figured it was better
face-to-face.
340
00:13:48,725 --> 00:13:50,986
I'm sorry about the photos.
341
00:13:51,010 --> 00:13:52,756
We're trying to figure out who took them.
342
00:13:52,780 --> 00:13:56,110
Yeah, it's okay. I'm sorry you
have to deal with the tabloids.
343
00:13:57,445 --> 00:13:59,125
So, you asked me
344
00:13:59,149 --> 00:14:00,460
to arrange a meeting with Jovani.
345
00:14:00,484 --> 00:14:01,627
I said no.
346
00:14:01,651 --> 00:14:04,063
And now I hear you are
meeting with his mother.
347
00:14:04,702 --> 00:14:06,087
Okay.
348
00:14:10,093 --> 00:14:11,437
She approached me.
349
00:14:11,461 --> 00:14:12,638
She asked to meet.
350
00:14:12,662 --> 00:14:14,240
I said I would think about it
351
00:14:14,264 --> 00:14:16,075
'cause I wanted to talk to you first.
352
00:14:16,422 --> 00:14:18,345
But, Tommy, I need to say,
353
00:14:18,369 --> 00:14:21,981
my job is to talk to athletes
and their families.
354
00:14:22,005 --> 00:14:23,850
I know. It's just...
355
00:14:24,096 --> 00:14:25,718
the timing.
356
00:14:25,742 --> 00:14:27,220
Yeah.
357
00:14:27,244 --> 00:14:28,955
And I wouldn't have gone to that hearing
358
00:14:28,979 --> 00:14:32,558
if he hadn't been on the news,
but he was, so I did.
359
00:14:32,582 --> 00:14:34,794
And part of that is
about the money, obviously,
360
00:14:34,818 --> 00:14:37,063
but it's also about helping a kid
361
00:14:37,087 --> 00:14:39,298
navigate a corporate sports culture
362
00:14:39,322 --> 00:14:41,234
that's about to engulf him.
363
00:14:41,258 --> 00:14:43,002
And I can't not do my job
364
00:14:43,026 --> 00:14:44,570
just because I'm with you.
365
00:14:44,909 --> 00:14:46,339
I'm not asking you to,
366
00:14:46,363 --> 00:14:49,575
but please don't drop my name
while you're doing it.
367
00:14:50,206 --> 00:14:51,791
I didn't.
368
00:14:54,571 --> 00:14:55,670
Okay.
369
00:14:56,940 --> 00:14:58,540
Okay.
370
00:15:00,883 --> 00:15:03,545
Uh, call you tonight?
371
00:15:06,389 --> 00:15:08,015
Okay.
372
00:15:24,434 --> 00:15:26,145
- What's up?
- You remember
373
00:15:26,169 --> 00:15:27,914
what I said about patterns?
374
00:15:27,938 --> 00:15:29,248
Yeah. Why?
375
00:15:29,272 --> 00:15:30,996
Got a shooting in East L.A.
376
00:15:31,020 --> 00:15:32,885
Local dealer took three to the chest.
377
00:15:32,909 --> 00:15:34,754
They found the murder weapon
in a garbage can,
378
00:15:34,778 --> 00:15:37,890
a Glock 45 registered to a Bobby Perez?
379
00:15:37,914 --> 00:15:39,258
Jovani's father?
380
00:15:40,055 --> 00:15:41,160
Initial check
381
00:15:41,184 --> 00:15:43,396
indicates the clearest prints
are Jovani's.
382
00:15:45,589 --> 00:15:48,148
- Do we know where he is?
- No. No.
383
00:15:48,172 --> 00:15:49,669
Put out a BOLO for him and the dad,
384
00:15:49,693 --> 00:15:52,471
but if this spins out
the way I think it will,
385
00:15:52,495 --> 00:15:55,187
we're looking at Jovani for the murder.
386
00:16:00,499 --> 00:16:01,742
Meanwhile, reports are coming in
387
00:16:01,766 --> 00:16:04,480
that top MLB prospect Jovani Perez,
388
00:16:04,505 --> 00:16:06,316
who possibly received
preferential treatment
389
00:16:06,340 --> 00:16:09,079
from LAPD Chief Abigail Thomas,
390
00:16:09,103 --> 00:16:10,989
is wanted now for questioning
391
00:16:11,013 --> 00:16:14,156
in the murder of a drug dealer
in an East L.A. neighborhood.
392
00:16:14,181 --> 00:16:15,416
Tommy.
393
00:16:17,543 --> 00:16:19,763
The gun belonged to the kid's dad.
394
00:16:19,921 --> 00:16:21,798
It was found a few blocks from the house.
395
00:16:21,822 --> 00:16:24,501
Jovani was supposed to return to school.
396
00:16:24,525 --> 00:16:25,702
He never showed.
397
00:16:25,726 --> 00:16:28,338
His prints are definitely on the gun
398
00:16:28,362 --> 00:16:30,673
This, frankly, couldn't be worse.
399
00:16:30,697 --> 00:16:32,575
We will find Jovani, we'll investigate,
400
00:16:32,599 --> 00:16:33,777
and if he's guilty,
401
00:16:33,801 --> 00:16:35,278
I will admit I made a mistake.
402
00:16:35,302 --> 00:16:37,547
Well, you'll have to admit
to more than that.
403
00:16:37,571 --> 00:16:40,884
I mean, this impropriety
with your friend...
404
00:16:40,908 --> 00:16:42,585
There was no impropriety, and who she is
405
00:16:42,609 --> 00:16:45,173
- to me is irrelevant.
- Well, it's quite relevant
406
00:16:45,197 --> 00:16:48,224
because she's looking to make ten cents
407
00:16:48,248 --> 00:16:50,160
on every dollar this kid earns,
408
00:16:50,184 --> 00:16:53,448
starting with what I am told
will be a multimillion dollar
409
00:16:53,472 --> 00:16:55,231
- signing bonus.
- You see, Tommy,
410
00:16:55,255 --> 00:16:58,668
uh, things like mixing
your job and your girlfriend...
411
00:16:59,377 --> 00:17:01,905
That's the kind of stuff
that got Milt Leakey fired.
412
00:17:02,171 --> 00:17:03,907
That's not what I did.
413
00:17:04,298 --> 00:17:05,675
Mmm.
414
00:17:06,509 --> 00:17:08,011
Are you firing me?
415
00:17:08,035 --> 00:17:09,679
No, I'm just trying to help you.
416
00:17:09,971 --> 00:17:11,448
This story has metastasized,
417
00:17:11,472 --> 00:17:12,949
and you got to get in front of it.
418
00:17:12,973 --> 00:17:15,418
I am not gonna comment
on an investigation,
419
00:17:15,442 --> 00:17:18,621
and I'm certainly not gonna
comment on tabloid photos.
420
00:17:18,645 --> 00:17:20,935
We got to find out what the father knows.
421
00:17:20,959 --> 00:17:23,026
And if it turns out Jovani is guilty,
422
00:17:23,050 --> 00:17:24,661
then we can talk about
a public statement.
423
00:17:24,685 --> 00:17:25,917
Anything else?
424
00:17:28,823 --> 00:17:30,408
Then I'm going back to work.
425
00:17:37,030 --> 00:17:38,307
Go ahead.
426
00:17:38,332 --> 00:17:41,711
This keeps up, the press
will bury her with glee.
427
00:17:41,735 --> 00:17:43,380
You want to be buried with her?
428
00:17:43,614 --> 00:17:45,215
Who could I hand this off to?
429
00:17:45,239 --> 00:17:46,916
Well, there are public bodies
430
00:17:46,940 --> 00:17:49,586
designed for exactly this kind of thing.
431
00:17:49,610 --> 00:17:52,922
The Ethics Commission?
Doug, that's a meat grinder.
432
00:17:52,946 --> 00:17:55,225
Well, ground meat's just hamburger.
433
00:17:55,683 --> 00:17:57,260
People like burgers.
434
00:17:57,601 --> 00:17:59,251
Eat 'em right up.
435
00:18:16,703 --> 00:18:19,404
Vincent, what did you want with this?
436
00:18:27,181 --> 00:18:28,758
Just spoke to our lead detective.
437
00:18:28,782 --> 00:18:30,326
Jovani's still missing.
438
00:18:30,350 --> 00:18:31,694
Detectives talked to the mom,
439
00:18:31,718 --> 00:18:33,563
who said she has no idea where he is.
440
00:18:33,587 --> 00:18:35,165
We're bringing the father in.
441
00:18:35,473 --> 00:18:37,022
All right, keep me posted.
442
00:18:39,059 --> 00:18:41,271
Cooper's barely speaking to me.
443
00:18:41,687 --> 00:18:43,795
He relishes monosyllabism.
444
00:18:46,600 --> 00:18:48,378
What'd you think of Jovani's mother?
445
00:18:48,402 --> 00:18:50,446
I like her. She's good people.
446
00:18:50,470 --> 00:18:51,814
All right, go talk to her.
447
00:18:51,838 --> 00:18:54,717
The detectives already did,
but you got a connection.
448
00:18:54,741 --> 00:18:56,619
Maybe you'll get more out of her.
449
00:18:56,643 --> 00:18:58,888
I know you must be worried.
450
00:18:58,912 --> 00:19:02,025
The gang people want him dead.
451
00:19:02,049 --> 00:19:04,961
They didn't like what
he did at the store,
452
00:19:04,985 --> 00:19:06,763
getting that boy arrested.
453
00:19:06,787 --> 00:19:09,199
But even before, he had threats.
454
00:19:09,814 --> 00:19:11,467
- Why?
- People think
455
00:19:11,491 --> 00:19:13,403
we're rich because of baseball.
456
00:19:18,865 --> 00:19:20,643
He's not allowed to make
money from baseball
457
00:19:20,667 --> 00:19:22,145
until he gets drafted.
458
00:19:22,169 --> 00:19:25,014
But nobody believes us when we tell them.
459
00:19:25,038 --> 00:19:27,050
So the gun is for protection?
460
00:19:27,074 --> 00:19:30,153
He saw his best friend
killed two years ago
461
00:19:30,177 --> 00:19:31,588
during a robbery.
462
00:19:31,612 --> 00:19:34,691
But your husband also owned a gun.
463
00:19:34,715 --> 00:19:36,025
A long time ago.
464
00:19:36,049 --> 00:19:37,894
He no live here for many years.
465
00:19:37,918 --> 00:19:40,396
He has visited a few times,
466
00:19:40,420 --> 00:19:42,398
but Jovani told him to leave.
467
00:19:42,422 --> 00:19:44,400
He want Jovani's money.
468
00:19:44,917 --> 00:19:46,402
So, as far as you know,
469
00:19:46,426 --> 00:19:47,904
the only gun Jovani had
470
00:19:47,928 --> 00:19:49,439
was the one he used to stop the robbery?
471
00:19:49,463 --> 00:19:51,574
Esa es la única. La única.
472
00:19:51,598 --> 00:19:53,009
And what about your husband's gun?
473
00:19:53,033 --> 00:19:54,444
Where would that be?
474
00:19:54,468 --> 00:19:56,279
I hid it in the ceiling
475
00:19:56,303 --> 00:19:59,282
so my husband can't use it when he come.
476
00:19:59,306 --> 00:20:01,840
No one knows about it except me.
477
00:20:06,113 --> 00:20:07,523
Aquí?
478
00:20:13,904 --> 00:20:15,398
There's nothing up here.
479
00:20:15,422 --> 00:20:17,074
Nothing?
480
00:20:17,624 --> 00:20:21,037
So, you've been operating
a backhoe since 6:00 a.m.?
481
00:20:21,537 --> 00:20:22,805
Got there at 6:00.
482
00:20:23,122 --> 00:20:24,907
Been working till
you guys came and got me.
483
00:20:25,543 --> 00:20:26,609
Jovani's dad.
484
00:20:26,633 --> 00:20:28,945
Already spoke to the
boss, who backs him up.
485
00:20:29,170 --> 00:20:30,446
Who's our detective?
486
00:20:30,470 --> 00:20:31,681
That's, uh, Mark Miller.
487
00:20:31,705 --> 00:20:33,883
He's good. Used to work
with him at Plymouth.
488
00:20:33,907 --> 00:20:36,519
But you're confirming that
the gun used today is yours?
489
00:20:36,543 --> 00:20:38,054
Looks like it.
490
00:20:38,387 --> 00:20:40,757
Bought it in probably 2009,
but haven't touched it
491
00:20:40,781 --> 00:20:42,659
since my wife kicked me out
five years ago.
492
00:20:43,142 --> 00:20:45,628
Been in the apartment ever
since, as far as I know.
493
00:20:45,652 --> 00:20:47,130
And if Jovani tells you otherwise,
494
00:20:47,154 --> 00:20:49,332
- don't believe him.
- Why's that?
495
00:20:49,623 --> 00:20:51,501
His lying's as good as his hitting.
496
00:20:51,525 --> 00:20:54,170
- And he's, uh...
- We got to find this kid.
497
00:20:54,194 --> 00:20:55,838
Should've never let him go.
498
00:20:55,862 --> 00:20:57,674
Shouldn't we solve the case
before we judge it?
499
00:20:58,199 --> 00:20:59,642
You're not a cop, Ken.
500
00:20:59,666 --> 00:21:00,810
So?
501
00:21:00,834 --> 00:21:02,244
So stay in your lane.
502
00:21:06,239 --> 00:21:09,218
Hi. Uh... so sorry to keep you waiting.
503
00:21:09,242 --> 00:21:10,987
- That's okay.
- Jacob Fulton.
504
00:21:11,011 --> 00:21:12,622
Blake Sullivan.
505
00:21:12,646 --> 00:21:16,259
Yeah, you're the director
of communications at HQ, right?
506
00:21:16,283 --> 00:21:18,094
- Right.
- Yeah. We don't get many
507
00:21:18,118 --> 00:21:19,395
from your office down here.
508
00:21:19,419 --> 00:21:21,564
- Now, what can I do you for?
- Uh, well,
509
00:21:21,588 --> 00:21:24,434
we were just closing up the
circle on a couple of old cases,
510
00:21:24,458 --> 00:21:27,283
and I wanted to ask you about the case
511
00:21:27,307 --> 00:21:28,538
of an Edward Wilson.
512
00:21:28,562 --> 00:21:30,406
Sure, I remember the Wilson case.
513
00:21:30,430 --> 00:21:32,809
He was the last victim
of the Crenshaw Fireman.
514
00:21:32,833 --> 00:21:34,844
Serial killer. The one who went around
515
00:21:34,868 --> 00:21:36,479
bludgeoning and burning homeless men.
516
00:21:36,503 --> 00:21:37,844
- Right.
- Not to mention the case
517
00:21:37,869 --> 00:21:38,946
that made Len Egan
518
00:21:38,970 --> 00:21:40,783
so famous he could retire.
519
00:21:40,807 --> 00:21:42,485
Bastard.
520
00:21:42,509 --> 00:21:44,853
Straightforward.
521
00:21:45,412 --> 00:21:46,889
Blunt force trauma.
522
00:21:46,913 --> 00:21:48,891
Body burned postmortem.
523
00:21:48,915 --> 00:21:51,961
Was there anything special
about the case?
524
00:21:51,985 --> 00:21:53,296
Unusual?
525
00:21:53,320 --> 00:21:55,198
- Unusual?
- I mean,
526
00:21:55,222 --> 00:21:58,601
um, how did you know that
it was the Crenshaw Fireman?
527
00:21:59,051 --> 00:22:00,703
'Cause that's my job.
528
00:22:01,053 --> 00:22:02,405
Which I'm pretty good at.
529
00:22:02,846 --> 00:22:04,140
Okay.
530
00:22:04,598 --> 00:22:06,142
I could discuss stuff like this
531
00:22:06,166 --> 00:22:07,210
all day.
532
00:22:07,234 --> 00:22:08,311
Believe me.
533
00:22:08,335 --> 00:22:10,747
Coroners never get their 15 minutes.
534
00:22:10,771 --> 00:22:13,182
But, uh... I have a full load.
535
00:22:13,206 --> 00:22:15,522
- Oh, uh, if I could just...
- Thanks for stopping by.
536
00:22:21,281 --> 00:22:22,759
Just heard.
537
00:22:22,783 --> 00:22:24,994
Jovani Perez apparently
turned himself in.
538
00:22:25,018 --> 00:22:27,563
I'm on my way there.
I'll let you know what he says.
539
00:22:32,025 --> 00:22:33,436
He claims he wasn't at school
540
00:22:33,460 --> 00:22:35,805
because he was at a gaming
arcade on Beltran Avenue.
541
00:22:35,829 --> 00:22:38,474
Says he needed to "chill"
after his night in jail,
542
00:22:38,498 --> 00:22:40,343
and also because of the gang threats
543
00:22:40,367 --> 00:22:42,044
- against him.
- Are those threats confirmed?
544
00:22:42,068 --> 00:22:44,547
- Yeah.
- Have you spoken to his friends?
545
00:22:44,571 --> 00:22:46,382
Yeah. He's got a three-man posse.
546
00:22:46,406 --> 00:22:47,917
We're checking their alibis now.
547
00:22:47,941 --> 00:22:49,819
Did he say why he turned himself in?
548
00:22:49,843 --> 00:22:52,121
When he found out he was
wanted for questioning,
549
00:22:52,145 --> 00:22:53,756
his mom couldn't afford a lawyer,
550
00:22:53,780 --> 00:22:57,193
so she recommended he call someone.
551
00:22:57,651 --> 00:22:59,128
Who did he call?
552
00:22:59,611 --> 00:23:01,152
Some sports agent.
553
00:23:10,197 --> 00:23:12,141
Oh. Hi.
554
00:23:12,165 --> 00:23:14,076
You're a defense attorney now?
555
00:23:14,100 --> 00:23:16,879
He called. What was I supposed to do?
556
00:23:16,903 --> 00:23:18,438
Put him in touch with a lawyer.
557
00:23:18,462 --> 00:23:20,950
He said he was innocent.
I told him it was important
558
00:23:20,974 --> 00:23:24,232
to get to the nearest division
as fast as possible.
559
00:23:24,256 --> 00:23:26,167
It's not the first time
I've advised a client
560
00:23:26,191 --> 00:23:29,125
- to turn himself in.
- Except he's not your client.
561
00:23:29,149 --> 00:23:30,560
Well, you know what I mean.
562
00:23:31,185 --> 00:23:33,059
I did the right thing here.
563
00:23:33,579 --> 00:23:35,231
I didn't call you about it,
'cause it seemed best
564
00:23:35,255 --> 00:23:38,167
to have as little contact as possible.
565
00:23:38,984 --> 00:23:40,550
Yes, that was smart.
566
00:23:41,127 --> 00:23:42,927
But maybe you should leave.
567
00:23:44,498 --> 00:23:47,165
Actually... I'm gonna stay.
568
00:23:48,168 --> 00:23:49,870
I am gonna call him a lawyer.
569
00:23:51,470 --> 00:23:52,803
Fine.
570
00:23:59,779 --> 00:24:02,458
Hi, Jovani. I'm Chief Thomas.
571
00:24:03,467 --> 00:24:05,995
Would you explain why
your prints are on the gun
572
00:24:06,019 --> 00:24:07,363
that was used in today's shooting?
573
00:24:07,387 --> 00:24:09,499
Your mom said that
you didn't know about it.
574
00:24:09,523 --> 00:24:10,800
I knew about it.
575
00:24:10,824 --> 00:24:12,568
I saw my mom hide it.
576
00:24:12,976 --> 00:24:15,338
My dad left it when he moved out.
577
00:24:15,813 --> 00:24:17,607
I... liked having it around.
578
00:24:17,631 --> 00:24:19,008
Why?
579
00:24:19,900 --> 00:24:22,534
In case he came around again
and started hitting my mom.
580
00:24:24,204 --> 00:24:26,182
I wanted to be able to protect her.
581
00:24:26,990 --> 00:24:28,951
When was the last time you handled it?
582
00:24:28,975 --> 00:24:30,536
Couple months ago.
583
00:24:31,077 --> 00:24:32,522
I'd check it here and there
584
00:24:32,546 --> 00:24:34,357
just to make sure that it was there,
585
00:24:34,381 --> 00:24:37,693
but... I never took it
from the apartment.
586
00:24:37,717 --> 00:24:39,862
Why didn't you mention it
in your diversion hearing
587
00:24:39,886 --> 00:24:42,131
when you were asked
if you owned other guns?
588
00:24:42,155 --> 00:24:44,200
Uh, I literally forgot about it.
589
00:24:44,224 --> 00:24:46,502
- You forgot about it?
- I know it sounds nuts,
590
00:24:46,526 --> 00:24:49,038
but it just wasn't something
that I thought about.
591
00:24:49,062 --> 00:24:52,074
But you thought about the other
one enough to carry it around?
592
00:24:52,391 --> 00:24:54,043
Which I shouldn't have.
593
00:24:54,067 --> 00:24:57,013
It was... just me being scared
that I was a target.
594
00:24:57,037 --> 00:24:59,315
And I definitely
wouldn't be using guns to...
595
00:24:59,339 --> 00:25:01,217
...rob a dealer.
596
00:25:02,067 --> 00:25:03,486
I spend my time playing baseball,
597
00:25:03,510 --> 00:25:05,421
not obsessing about guns.
598
00:25:05,445 --> 00:25:08,591
Who else knew about the gun,
Jovani? Your posse?
599
00:25:08,615 --> 00:25:10,079
Your teammates?
600
00:25:10,103 --> 00:25:12,762
'Cause it's either you
or someone you know,
601
00:25:12,786 --> 00:25:15,598
and right now your friends'
alibis are checking out.
602
00:25:15,622 --> 00:25:17,767
I swear to God, I didn't do any of this.
603
00:25:18,458 --> 00:25:20,586
I wouldn't throw it all away like that.
604
00:25:21,753 --> 00:25:23,528
You got to believe me.
605
00:25:29,609 --> 00:25:31,587
Baseball phenom Jovani Perez
606
00:25:31,611 --> 00:25:33,889
is still being held
but has yet to be charged
607
00:25:33,913 --> 00:25:36,100
in the murder
of 19-year-old Joaquin Mercado,
608
00:25:36,124 --> 00:25:39,399
in a case that has transfixed
sports fans across the country.
609
00:25:39,423 --> 00:25:42,825
Lou Woods, head of L.A.'s police
union, commented this morning
610
00:25:42,850 --> 00:25:45,364
on Chief Abigail Thomas's
handling of the case.
611
00:25:45,388 --> 00:25:47,399
By supporting Mr. Perez's probation,
612
00:25:47,423 --> 00:25:49,481
Chief Thomas embraced
a bleeding-heart program
613
00:25:49,505 --> 00:25:51,403
that led directly to a bleeding body.
614
00:25:51,427 --> 00:25:52,638
But this isn't the first time...
615
00:25:54,804 --> 00:25:56,470
Thank you.
616
00:25:58,521 --> 00:26:00,299
I need you to make sure that gets vetted.
617
00:26:00,343 --> 00:26:02,722
- Hi.
- Good morning, Chief.
618
00:26:02,959 --> 00:26:04,458
Can we have a minute?
619
00:26:05,714 --> 00:26:07,290
Didn't see you yesterday.
620
00:26:07,314 --> 00:26:08,372
Uh, yes. Sorry.
621
00:26:08,396 --> 00:26:10,153
I had a personal issue.
622
00:26:10,177 --> 00:26:13,523
Okay. I need you to find out
who is behind these pictures
623
00:26:13,547 --> 00:26:15,525
- of me online.
- We've contacted the websites.
624
00:26:15,549 --> 00:26:17,661
Uh, they refused to say
who provided them,
625
00:26:17,685 --> 00:26:19,062
which isn't surprising.
626
00:26:19,086 --> 00:26:22,432
Well, tell them that the chief's
private life is off-limits.
627
00:26:22,456 --> 00:26:24,934
Okay, but on that note,
uh, we need to formulate
628
00:26:24,958 --> 00:26:27,704
- a response to the allegations.
- Which allegations?
629
00:26:28,320 --> 00:26:31,474
Uh, well, th-that Kiley Mills
improperly used your friendship
630
00:26:31,498 --> 00:26:33,376
to get to Perez.
631
00:26:33,400 --> 00:26:35,679
She didn't. There's your response.
632
00:26:35,703 --> 00:26:38,481
Unfortunately,
I don't think that's gonna work.
633
00:26:38,505 --> 00:26:40,083
Why not? That's the truth.
634
00:26:40,107 --> 00:26:42,719
Fine. But people
are still asking about it.
635
00:26:42,743 --> 00:26:44,387
They're-they're curious.
636
00:26:44,411 --> 00:26:46,656
And if we avoid questions
or refuse to answer,
637
00:26:46,680 --> 00:26:48,425
then they'll assume
that you're hiding something,
638
00:26:48,449 --> 00:26:50,875
which is exactly what you
don't want them to think.
639
00:26:50,899 --> 00:26:52,519
All right, here's what
you tell them, Blake.
640
00:26:52,543 --> 00:26:55,519
There has been no discussion of,
or access given to,
641
00:26:55,543 --> 00:26:58,787
Jovani Perez with anyone
outside of the LAPD
642
00:26:58,811 --> 00:27:00,535
or the D.A.'s office.
643
00:27:00,559 --> 00:27:02,971
And the chief's private life
644
00:27:02,996 --> 00:27:05,208
is private. Period.
645
00:27:05,232 --> 00:27:06,464
Gotcha.
646
00:27:23,875 --> 00:27:25,128
When I was a uniform,
647
00:27:25,152 --> 00:27:27,697
I, uh, I had a kid bleed out on me.
648
00:27:28,130 --> 00:27:30,757
Eight years old. Shot in the chest.
649
00:27:31,633 --> 00:27:34,604
Stayed with him until the ambulance came.
650
00:27:34,628 --> 00:27:36,706
Kept telling him
it was gonna be all right,
651
00:27:36,730 --> 00:27:38,515
which I knew was a lie.
652
00:27:39,933 --> 00:27:41,733
What he said to me...
653
00:27:44,771 --> 00:27:46,538
What he, um...
654
00:27:50,911 --> 00:27:53,256
Turns out he was shot by a ten-year-old
655
00:27:53,280 --> 00:27:55,614
who found the gun in a drainpipe.
656
00:27:57,117 --> 00:27:59,529
I don't like guns on the street.
657
00:28:00,162 --> 00:28:01,886
I don't, either.
658
00:28:04,524 --> 00:28:06,569
I also don't like putting kids in prison
659
00:28:06,593 --> 00:28:08,159
if they don't deserve it.
660
00:28:10,088 --> 00:28:12,674
I'm sorry you couldn't save that kid.
661
00:28:14,217 --> 00:28:16,045
I think there are kids that we can save
662
00:28:16,069 --> 00:28:18,388
if we're willing to take a chance.
663
00:28:28,774 --> 00:28:32,554
Bet you never thought you'd
be trending on BaseballTracker.com.
664
00:28:33,111 --> 00:28:34,631
Don't even know what that is.
665
00:28:34,655 --> 00:28:37,333
It's where nerded-out Dominicans
waste large chunks of their life
666
00:28:37,357 --> 00:28:39,846
arguing whether umpires
should be replaced by robots.
667
00:28:39,870 --> 00:28:41,259
And what do they think?
668
00:28:41,283 --> 00:28:44,607
There's a surprisingly
large pro-robot faction.
669
00:28:45,040 --> 00:28:46,409
About the case, Diaz.
670
00:28:46,433 --> 00:28:48,444
Do they think Perez is guilty?
671
00:28:48,468 --> 00:28:50,170
It's pretty evenly split.
672
00:28:51,129 --> 00:28:52,448
What do you think?
673
00:28:52,472 --> 00:28:53,916
I grew up in a rough neighborhood.
674
00:28:54,299 --> 00:28:56,252
I get why a kid like that
would carry a piece.
675
00:28:56,276 --> 00:29:00,023
But for Jovani to shoot someone,
with the future he's got,
676
00:29:00,047 --> 00:29:01,556
he'd have to be nuts.
677
00:29:02,249 --> 00:29:04,267
Then again, people crack all the time.
678
00:29:07,087 --> 00:29:08,364
Blake, what's up?
679
00:29:08,388 --> 00:29:10,466
Kiley Mills just gave an interview.
680
00:29:10,490 --> 00:29:11,701
And?
681
00:29:11,725 --> 00:29:13,703
I'll let you listen.
682
00:29:13,727 --> 00:29:15,438
Excuse me, excuse me, Ms. Mills.
683
00:29:15,462 --> 00:29:18,908
Did you and Chief Thomas discuss
the Jovani Perez case?
684
00:29:18,932 --> 00:29:21,811
We, uh, briefly discussed the
case when it was on the news,
685
00:29:21,835 --> 00:29:24,047
but she didn't help me
or provide any kind
686
00:29:24,071 --> 00:29:25,437
of inside track.
687
00:29:26,940 --> 00:29:30,119
So she's saying that we discussed it.
688
00:29:30,143 --> 00:29:32,021
Yeah, and I just released a statement
689
00:29:32,045 --> 00:29:33,489
saying that you didn't.
690
00:29:33,513 --> 00:29:35,191
You know, we're basically saying
the same thing.
691
00:29:35,215 --> 00:29:37,226
It's just a small mistake.
692
00:29:37,250 --> 00:29:40,463
It's a discrepancy
reporters will be all over.
693
00:29:40,487 --> 00:29:42,999
I'll try to recontextualize,
but, uh, if you get asked
694
00:29:43,023 --> 00:29:45,301
while you're with the mayor,
just deflect.
695
00:29:45,325 --> 00:29:46,725
Right.
696
00:29:48,254 --> 00:29:50,099
In closing, I want you all to remember
697
00:29:50,124 --> 00:29:53,508
you are our partners
in keeping our streets safe.
698
00:29:53,533 --> 00:29:56,598
So if you see something wrong,
I want you to call us
699
00:29:56,622 --> 00:29:59,082
and tell us what that is.
700
00:29:59,106 --> 00:30:00,874
- Okay?
- Yes!
701
00:30:00,899 --> 00:30:02,251
All right, I think that we got time
702
00:30:02,275 --> 00:30:03,986
for a couple questions from the back.
703
00:30:04,010 --> 00:30:05,021
- Over here!
- Go ahead.
704
00:30:05,045 --> 00:30:06,289
Mr. Mayor, question and a follow-up.
705
00:30:06,313 --> 00:30:09,325
Is the Jovani Perez case
a setback for progressive
706
00:30:09,349 --> 00:30:10,993
criminal justice reform in L.A.?
707
00:30:11,017 --> 00:30:13,663
And will you hold Chief Thomas
accountable for interfering
708
00:30:13,687 --> 00:30:15,465
in a case in which she has a clear...
709
00:30:15,489 --> 00:30:17,834
- personal interest?
- Regarding
710
00:30:17,858 --> 00:30:19,435
the Jovani Perez case,
it's still under investigation,
711
00:30:19,459 --> 00:30:21,504
so you know that
I can't answer that question.
712
00:30:21,528 --> 00:30:24,640
And, uh, as far as the chief's
behavior goes, I, um...
713
00:30:25,015 --> 00:30:26,309
I'm gonna defer to the chief.
714
00:30:26,333 --> 00:30:27,601
Tommy?
715
00:30:27,934 --> 00:30:29,011
Uh...
716
00:30:29,035 --> 00:30:31,013
well, I can assure you that my...
717
00:30:31,037 --> 00:30:33,483
my personal actions have been
completely appropriate.
718
00:30:33,507 --> 00:30:36,380
As far as criminal justice
reform is concerned,
719
00:30:36,404 --> 00:30:39,889
if Jovan Perez is found
guilty, I, uh, will admit
720
00:30:39,913 --> 00:30:42,191
I made a mistake, but that
doesn't change my commitment
721
00:30:42,215 --> 00:30:44,875
to smart and careful reform.
722
00:30:44,899 --> 00:30:47,141
Um, if your behavior was appropriate,
723
00:30:47,165 --> 00:30:49,932
why lie about discussing the case
with Kiley Mills?
724
00:30:49,956 --> 00:30:51,134
I didn't lie.
725
00:30:51,158 --> 00:30:52,969
- Are you saying Ms. Mills lied?
- Which is it?
726
00:30:52,993 --> 00:30:55,366
Uh, we're not here to discuss this today.
727
00:30:55,390 --> 00:30:56,940
But can't you just answer the question?
728
00:30:56,964 --> 00:30:59,142
We are here to discuss
the Our Streets program.
729
00:30:59,166 --> 00:31:00,209
- Right?
- Yes, that is what we
730
00:31:00,233 --> 00:31:01,444
Mr. Mayor? should be discussing.
731
00:31:01,468 --> 00:31:03,012
- Okay.
- Yes, okay, we're done here, okay?
732
00:31:03,036 --> 00:31:04,080
Thank you.
733
00:31:04,104 --> 00:31:06,048
Okay, kids, let's get all your stuff.
734
00:31:10,610 --> 00:31:12,177
A little distance.
735
00:31:20,110 --> 00:31:22,110
_
736
00:31:31,914 --> 00:31:33,391
Hey.
737
00:31:33,416 --> 00:31:35,378
This is very Deep Throat of you.
738
00:31:35,402 --> 00:31:36,779
Well, I got ambushed
739
00:31:36,803 --> 00:31:38,447
by a reporter this afternoon,
740
00:31:38,471 --> 00:31:41,216
so... this seemed like a good idea.
741
00:31:41,808 --> 00:31:43,207
Want to get in?
742
00:31:53,119 --> 00:31:57,133
I'm sorry I gave a statement
that differed from yours.
743
00:31:58,514 --> 00:31:59,635
Honestly.
744
00:31:59,659 --> 00:32:00,970
There's no way you could've known.
745
00:32:00,994 --> 00:32:02,362
And it's okay.
746
00:32:04,155 --> 00:32:06,908
Well, what I wanted to say is, um,
747
00:32:07,659 --> 00:32:09,474
I can't just turn my back on Jovani.
748
00:32:09,498 --> 00:32:11,814
The pressure a kid like him is under...
749
00:32:11,838 --> 00:32:13,950
from scouts, parents, friends...
750
00:32:13,974 --> 00:32:15,484
it's-it's insane.
751
00:32:15,508 --> 00:32:17,620
He needs someone he can trust.
752
00:32:17,644 --> 00:32:19,488
That's why kids like him have posses,
753
00:32:19,512 --> 00:32:21,824
kids he's known since he was six.
754
00:32:21,848 --> 00:32:23,159
He trusts those guys.
755
00:32:23,183 --> 00:32:25,094
And-and even they have agendas.
756
00:32:25,118 --> 00:32:26,729
But you don't?
757
00:32:26,753 --> 00:32:28,397
Yeah, of course I do.
758
00:32:28,638 --> 00:32:30,199
But part of it
759
00:32:30,223 --> 00:32:33,603
is I want him to be able
to believe in someone, fully.
760
00:32:33,627 --> 00:32:36,339
That's why I went
to his hearing, to the precinct.
761
00:32:36,363 --> 00:32:38,608
So he knows somebody has his back.
762
00:32:38,632 --> 00:32:41,611
Especially now, when
everybody else is backing away.
763
00:32:41,635 --> 00:32:44,654
Making that kind of connection,
that is my job.
764
00:32:46,698 --> 00:32:48,517
Which I love.
765
00:32:48,742 --> 00:32:50,653
No, I-I understand.
766
00:32:50,952 --> 00:32:52,454
Problem is this:
767
00:32:53,330 --> 00:32:56,058
you and I having to meet
to discuss the situation
768
00:32:56,082 --> 00:32:57,542
in a parking garage.
769
00:33:00,170 --> 00:33:03,532
So you're saying
I should not try to sign Jovani
770
00:33:03,556 --> 00:33:05,334
so you and I can be together?
771
00:33:05,358 --> 00:33:06,869
No, that's not what I'm saying.
772
00:33:06,893 --> 00:33:08,004
But you're not saying
773
00:33:08,028 --> 00:33:11,307
that you should recuse yourself
from him either.
774
00:33:11,331 --> 00:33:13,142
That is definitely not what I'm saying.
775
00:33:13,166 --> 00:33:15,611
What I'm saying is this, that...
776
00:33:15,635 --> 00:33:17,513
the press is just reporting
what they see,
777
00:33:17,537 --> 00:33:19,148
which is me doing my job
778
00:33:19,172 --> 00:33:21,417
and you doing yours.
779
00:33:21,900 --> 00:33:23,953
It just makes...
780
00:33:23,977 --> 00:33:26,489
this whole thing very...
781
00:33:26,513 --> 00:33:28,324
complicated.
782
00:33:28,348 --> 00:33:30,026
Which "whole thing"?
783
00:33:30,302 --> 00:33:32,202
This us thing.
784
00:33:36,595 --> 00:33:37,861
Oh.
785
00:33:39,192 --> 00:33:41,337
I'm sorry. I just think...
786
00:33:41,361 --> 00:33:44,547
it'd be easier for me to do
my job if we aren't together.
787
00:33:46,132 --> 00:33:48,477
Tell me this isn't an excuse to leave
788
00:33:48,501 --> 00:33:50,512
right when we're getting serious.
789
00:33:51,571 --> 00:33:53,249
Just tell me that.
790
00:33:53,273 --> 00:33:54,849
No, it's not.
791
00:33:58,103 --> 00:33:59,841
It's funny.
792
00:34:00,795 --> 00:34:02,758
If I do sign Jovani, he'll be in my life
793
00:34:02,782 --> 00:34:05,161
ten, 15 years.
794
00:34:05,527 --> 00:34:07,404
That'll be a commitment.
795
00:34:08,901 --> 00:34:11,616
Which is more than I'm getting from you.
796
00:34:49,229 --> 00:34:50,740
Blake, right?
797
00:34:51,364 --> 00:34:52,775
Uh, y-yes.
798
00:34:52,799 --> 00:34:54,110
Uh...
799
00:34:54,134 --> 00:34:55,811
- who-who are you?
- You don't know me.
800
00:34:55,835 --> 00:34:58,114
But I wanted to talk.
801
00:34:58,138 --> 00:34:59,949
- About what?
- Actually, I wanted
802
00:34:59,973 --> 00:35:01,291
to show you something.
803
00:35:01,808 --> 00:35:03,753
I want to know who you are.
804
00:35:03,777 --> 00:35:06,288
I collect private intelligence.
805
00:35:06,312 --> 00:35:08,891
Which means I sometimes stumble
806
00:35:09,299 --> 00:35:12,395
across stuff
I didn't know I was gonna get.
807
00:35:12,419 --> 00:35:14,397
Like this.
808
00:35:14,421 --> 00:35:16,181
Where did you get that?
809
00:35:16,723 --> 00:35:18,641
Where did you get that?
810
00:35:19,092 --> 00:35:21,637
I wouldn't want you to get
into any trouble, Blake.
811
00:35:22,312 --> 00:35:24,814
Thought you should know it was out there.
812
00:35:25,211 --> 00:35:27,211
Your boss should be careful, too.
813
00:35:40,084 --> 00:35:41,862
Jovani's getting charged with murder,
814
00:35:41,886 --> 00:35:43,667
but these pieces don't fit.
815
00:35:43,691 --> 00:35:45,069
What are we missing?
816
00:35:45,093 --> 00:35:46,203
How 'bout motive?
817
00:35:46,227 --> 00:35:47,471
Why is he messing with a drug dealer
818
00:35:47,495 --> 00:35:49,106
two hours after he got out of trouble?
819
00:35:49,130 --> 00:35:50,808
I think we need to look at this posse.
820
00:35:50,832 --> 00:35:53,210
I mean, one of them must've
known about the existence
821
00:35:53,234 --> 00:35:54,345
of the second gun.
822
00:35:54,369 --> 00:35:55,346
They've been asked.
823
00:35:55,370 --> 00:35:56,680
Well, let's re-ask 'em.
824
00:35:56,704 --> 00:35:58,682
These are the kids he's trusted
since he was six, right?
825
00:35:58,706 --> 00:35:59,950
They must've known about his dad,
826
00:35:59,974 --> 00:36:01,252
about the gun, where it was.
827
00:36:01,276 --> 00:36:02,386
And they could've moved it
828
00:36:02,410 --> 00:36:04,766
or taken it or given it to someone else.
829
00:36:04,790 --> 00:36:06,457
I don't know that they'd
mess with the gun.
830
00:36:06,481 --> 00:36:07,899
Too loyal.
831
00:36:10,193 --> 00:36:12,320
But I do know who I should talk to.
832
00:36:14,591 --> 00:36:15,853
So you're saying
833
00:36:15,877 --> 00:36:18,636
no one else knew that you
hid the gun in the ceiling?
834
00:36:18,660 --> 00:36:20,304
No. Nobody.
835
00:36:20,328 --> 00:36:22,747
But Jovani told us he knew about it.
836
00:36:23,957 --> 00:36:25,823
That's how his fingerprints got on it.
837
00:36:28,548 --> 00:36:29,837
Daniella?
838
00:36:31,172 --> 00:36:33,450
Did you know the gun was up there?
839
00:36:33,474 --> 00:36:35,176
You can tell me the truth.
840
00:36:37,911 --> 00:36:41,613
Did you ever tell anybody else?
841
00:36:49,457 --> 00:36:50,656
Daniella?
842
00:36:52,026 --> 00:36:54,471
He made me promise not to say.
843
00:36:54,495 --> 00:36:56,996
He said he'll hurt me very bad.
844
00:36:58,032 --> 00:36:59,076
Who did?
845
00:36:59,405 --> 00:37:01,105
Your brother?
846
00:37:01,836 --> 00:37:03,538
Victor.
847
00:37:04,172 --> 00:37:05,749
Who's Victor?
848
00:37:05,773 --> 00:37:07,885
He's Jovani's cousin.
849
00:37:07,909 --> 00:37:09,953
He used to be part of his crew,
850
00:37:09,977 --> 00:37:13,279
but Jovani kicked him out
'cause he started selling drugs.
851
00:37:14,315 --> 00:37:15,981
Did Victor take the gun?
852
00:37:17,985 --> 00:37:21,465
He wanted me to steal the
gun from Jovani's backpack,
853
00:37:21,489 --> 00:37:24,001
but I told him I wouldn't.
854
00:37:24,025 --> 00:37:27,004
So then he asked if there
were any other guns here.
855
00:37:27,028 --> 00:37:30,274
So I told him about the one up there.
856
00:37:30,298 --> 00:37:33,777
So then he took it
and made me promise not to say.
857
00:37:33,801 --> 00:37:35,379
Okay.
858
00:37:35,403 --> 00:37:37,217
Where does Victor live?
859
00:37:52,387 --> 00:37:54,480
And we will
need it by the end of the day.
860
00:37:55,390 --> 00:37:57,390
- All right.
- Thanks, guys.
861
00:38:01,021 --> 00:38:02,198
Hey.
862
00:38:02,223 --> 00:38:05,469
Hey. A Victor Perez
just confessed to the murder.
863
00:38:05,494 --> 00:38:08,940
He said the victim tried to rip
him off and shots got fired.
864
00:38:08,965 --> 00:38:11,010
We sure he's not just, uh, taking the rap
865
00:38:11,035 --> 00:38:12,946
for his maybe-famous cousin?
866
00:38:12,971 --> 00:38:14,615
Well, the partials on the gun
were Victor's.
867
00:38:14,640 --> 00:38:16,251
The victim's drugs were found
in his house.
868
00:38:16,276 --> 00:38:17,630
Uh, he-he's good for it.
869
00:38:17,654 --> 00:38:19,223
Okay.
870
00:38:19,247 --> 00:38:20,557
They asked him if he'd have
871
00:38:20,581 --> 00:38:22,693
been okay with Jovani going to prison.
872
00:38:22,717 --> 00:38:25,429
And he said, uh, "That's what happens
873
00:38:25,453 --> 00:38:27,887
when you betray the people
you grew up with."
874
00:38:29,891 --> 00:38:31,368
One could argue that,
875
00:38:31,392 --> 00:38:34,171
if the people you grew up
with started dealing drugs
876
00:38:34,195 --> 00:38:36,707
on the eve of you getting
a Major League contract,
877
00:38:36,731 --> 00:38:39,076
maybe it's okay if you betray them.
878
00:38:39,100 --> 00:38:41,636
Yeah. One could definitely argue that.
879
00:38:46,207 --> 00:38:48,385
Too many kids are getting shot.
880
00:38:48,409 --> 00:38:50,587
I know sometimes
the wrong kids go to prison.
881
00:38:50,611 --> 00:38:53,257
But... I'm worried
about the ones who are dying.
882
00:38:53,281 --> 00:38:56,260
That... goes deep for me.
883
00:38:56,284 --> 00:38:57,795
Believe me,
884
00:38:57,819 --> 00:38:59,320
I get that.
885
00:39:01,280 --> 00:39:02,413
Good.
886
00:39:03,624 --> 00:39:04,935
I just spoke to
someone in the D.A.'s office.
887
00:39:04,959 --> 00:39:07,604
The judge extended
Jovani's probation period,
888
00:39:07,628 --> 00:39:08,872
meaning he won't be eligible
889
00:39:08,896 --> 00:39:10,374
for the amateur draft for another year.
890
00:39:10,398 --> 00:39:11,567
They say why?
891
00:39:11,591 --> 00:39:13,744
He didn't tell her there was
a second gun in his apartment.
892
00:39:13,768 --> 00:39:15,078
Well, technically, it wasn't there
893
00:39:15,102 --> 00:39:16,146
at the time of his hearing.
894
00:39:16,170 --> 00:39:17,548
Right. But he didn't know that.
895
00:39:17,572 --> 00:39:20,150
Also, optics. National story.
896
00:39:20,174 --> 00:39:23,477
I just got a call from a friend
at the mayor's office.
897
00:39:23,501 --> 00:39:25,155
- What's going on?
- I don't know,
898
00:39:25,179 --> 00:39:27,424
but I think you want to turn on the news.
899
00:39:27,890 --> 00:39:29,159
Due to the events
900
00:39:29,183 --> 00:39:30,861
of the last several days,
901
00:39:30,885 --> 00:39:32,529
I have asked for an ethics inquiry
902
00:39:32,553 --> 00:39:35,365
as to whether or not
Chief Thomas has violated
903
00:39:35,389 --> 00:39:36,934
the city's conflict of interest rules
904
00:39:36,958 --> 00:39:40,011
by providing information
to sports agent Kiley Mills
905
00:39:40,035 --> 00:39:41,241
about the Jovani Perez case.
906
00:39:41,265 --> 00:39:42,739
This is completely insane.
907
00:39:42,763 --> 00:39:43,974
She will continue working.
908
00:39:43,998 --> 00:39:46,477
I've asked for a speedy
yet thorough investigation
909
00:39:46,501 --> 00:39:47,611
so that we can all...
910
00:39:47,635 --> 00:39:49,613
It's alarmist, it's pandering,
911
00:39:49,637 --> 00:39:51,281
it's-it's sexist...
912
00:39:51,305 --> 00:39:52,416
- Ken.
- What?
913
00:39:52,440 --> 00:39:53,678
You need to breathe.
914
00:39:53,702 --> 00:39:55,908
Okay. Breathing.
915
00:39:56,911 --> 00:39:59,130
Now go write my resignation speech.
916
00:39:59,914 --> 00:40:00,891
Really?
917
00:40:00,915 --> 00:40:02,258
No.
918
00:40:04,652 --> 00:40:06,430
Do you have a minute?
919
00:40:06,454 --> 00:40:07,631
To talk?
920
00:40:07,655 --> 00:40:09,056
Yeah.
921
00:40:14,562 --> 00:40:15,873
Did you know about this?
922
00:40:15,897 --> 00:40:18,114
Uh... about what?
923
00:40:18,138 --> 00:40:20,611
The mayor just announced
an investigation of me.
924
00:40:20,635 --> 00:40:22,572
No, I-I didn't.
925
00:40:22,596 --> 00:40:25,315
Uh, for what?
926
00:40:25,781 --> 00:40:27,451
Are you all right?
927
00:40:27,475 --> 00:40:29,660
Um, can I just...
928
00:40:32,880 --> 00:40:34,525
Sorry.
929
00:40:34,549 --> 00:40:36,292
Um...
930
00:40:38,019 --> 00:40:40,397
I was threatened last night.
931
00:40:40,421 --> 00:40:41,865
Threatened? By who?
932
00:40:41,889 --> 00:40:43,734
I don't know his name.
933
00:40:44,175 --> 00:40:45,736
I think he's following me.
934
00:40:45,760 --> 00:40:47,337
And I think he has to do
935
00:40:47,361 --> 00:40:49,347
with the disappearance
of a friend of mine.
936
00:40:51,140 --> 00:40:53,059
All right, you want to have a seat?
937
00:40:54,241 --> 00:40:55,841
Yeah.
938
00:40:58,339 --> 00:41:00,317
Uh, okay.
939
00:41:00,341 --> 00:41:03,409
So, h-how did this person threaten you?
940
00:41:05,346 --> 00:41:07,740
I'm having an affair with the mayor.
941
00:41:08,241 --> 00:41:10,586
And this man had pictures.
942
00:41:11,244 --> 00:41:14,205
And he, um, threatened to publish them.
943
00:41:17,892 --> 00:41:19,403
Ooh. Wow.
944
00:41:19,427 --> 00:41:21,293
Uh...
945
00:41:23,731 --> 00:41:25,542
Is there more?
946
00:41:25,566 --> 00:41:27,210
Yes.
947
00:41:27,234 --> 00:41:28,278
Yeah.
948
00:41:28,302 --> 00:41:30,047
I don't...
949
00:41:30,071 --> 00:41:31,181
There's something going on.
950
00:41:31,205 --> 00:41:32,783
Something...
951
00:41:32,807 --> 00:41:35,385
something big. And I...
952
00:41:35,409 --> 00:41:39,056
I think I got, like, a corner of it.
953
00:41:39,080 --> 00:41:40,924
And I think that's why that this-this man
954
00:41:40,948 --> 00:41:42,759
showed me those photos.
955
00:41:42,783 --> 00:41:43,988
Have you told the mayor any of this?
956
00:41:44,012 --> 00:41:45,236
No.
957
00:41:45,466 --> 00:41:46,836
All right, well, I need this whole story.
958
00:41:46,861 --> 00:41:48,112
All of it.
959
00:41:48,137 --> 00:41:49,949
You know you can trust me.
960
00:41:51,459 --> 00:41:52,703
Y-Yeah.
961
00:41:52,727 --> 00:41:55,439
Can we... can we talk somewhere else?
962
00:41:55,463 --> 00:41:56,998
Sure.
963
00:41:58,292 --> 00:41:59,869
Um, I...
964
00:41:59,894 --> 00:42:02,094
I will get to the bottom of this, Blake.
965
00:42:04,164 --> 00:42:05,497
That's a promise, okay?
