Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:00,020 --> 00:00:02,720
- Aaron Wallace is the rat.
- That would make the most sense.
2
00:00:06,325 --> 00:00:07,725
Jamal!
3
00:00:09,859 --> 00:00:11,594
We got a riot in the gym.
4
00:00:11,661 --> 00:00:13,228
Shut the gate!
5
00:00:13,296 --> 00:00:16,432
Three prisoners dead,
another 36 seriously injured.
6
00:00:16,499 --> 00:00:17,800
You're a novice, Ms. Masry.
7
00:00:17,867 --> 00:00:20,569
Cyrus will be taking over
until your hearing's concluded.
8
00:00:20,637 --> 00:00:22,371
We might be able to use it
to our advantage.
9
00:00:22,439 --> 00:00:24,540
It looks just awful for Safiya Masry,
10
00:00:24,608 --> 00:00:26,375
and it's got to roll downhill
to her wife.
11
00:00:26,443 --> 00:00:29,044
That girl who OD'd at the club.
Lexi Richardson.
12
00:00:29,112 --> 00:00:31,747
She's not just another witness.
She's the reason it started.
13
00:00:31,815 --> 00:00:33,449
And her father just so happens to be
14
00:00:33,516 --> 00:00:35,918
one of Maskins' biggest donors.

16
00:00:44,060 --> 00:00:46,762
If I could have
everyone's attention, please.
17
00:00:46,830 --> 00:00:49,832
If I had to choose one word
18
00:00:49,899 --> 00:00:54,203
to describe my friend Glen Maskins,
19
00:00:54,270 --> 00:00:55,943
it would be "devoted."
20
00:00:55,967 --> 00:00:57,601
He's devoted to his family.
21
00:00:57,669 --> 00:01:00,904
He's devoted to
the principles he lives by.
22
00:01:00,972 --> 00:01:03,440
He's devoted to truth and justice.
23
00:01:03,508 --> 00:01:05,209
What does that mean?
24
00:01:05,276 --> 00:01:07,611
It means he fights.
25
00:01:07,679 --> 00:01:10,180
As a Marine, he fought
for his country in Kuwait.
26
00:01:10,248 --> 00:01:12,416
As District Attorney here in the Bronx,
27
00:01:12,484 --> 00:01:15,392
he fought to keep our streets safe.
28
00:01:16,087 --> 00:01:18,288
He fought for victims,
29
00:01:18,313 --> 00:01:20,731
and he fought for their families.
30
00:01:21,626 --> 00:01:23,894
And as the next Attorney General,
31
00:01:23,962 --> 00:01:26,897
he'll fight to ensure that
New York has the most ethical,
32
00:01:26,965 --> 00:01:29,933
intelligent, and nimble system
of criminal justice
33
00:01:30,001 --> 00:01:31,135
in the nation.
34
00:01:31,202 --> 00:01:34,972
To do all that in a complicated world,
35
00:01:35,039 --> 00:01:38,976
you need someone with values,
with great judgment,
36
00:01:39,043 --> 00:01:42,146
and most of all, with integrity.
37
00:01:42,213 --> 00:01:45,749
Anyone who knows Glen
knows he has all those things.
38
00:01:45,817 --> 00:01:48,685
If you're innocent,
you'll be given a fair shake.
39
00:01:51,723 --> 00:01:53,824
But if you're guilty,
40
00:01:53,892 --> 00:01:56,960
well, then get ready
for the fight of your life.
41
00:01:57,028 --> 00:01:58,962
Mm?
42
00:02:02,233 --> 00:02:03,567
You hear anything about Jamal?
43
00:02:03,635 --> 00:02:06,570
The body count hasn't changed.
That's all I got.
44
00:02:06,638 --> 00:02:08,672
What happened to all his stuff?
45
00:02:08,740 --> 00:02:11,708
Anyone who went to the hole
got their cell tossed.
46
00:02:18,216 --> 00:02:19,149
No.
47
00:02:20,884 --> 00:02:22,585
I found that thing you used to
keep under your chair.
48
00:02:23,968 --> 00:02:25,335
Got rid of it.
49
00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:30,561
Am I gonna get my stuff back?
50
00:02:30,628 --> 00:02:32,062
Warden says no.
51
00:02:32,130 --> 00:02:35,065
I'm entitled to anything
pertaining to my defense.
52
00:02:35,133 --> 00:02:37,349
They took my file at intake.
53
00:02:38,102 --> 00:02:39,336
It's a part of the lockdown.
54
00:02:39,404 --> 00:02:40,613
I'm arguing for my retrial.
55
00:02:40,638 --> 00:02:42,306
He can't just take my things like that.
56
00:02:42,373 --> 00:02:44,174
You got the right to prep your witnesses
57
00:02:44,242 --> 00:02:45,442
if they can get up here.
58
00:02:45,510 --> 00:02:47,010
That's an order from the judge.
59
00:02:47,078 --> 00:02:48,712
And you got the right to go to court,
60
00:02:48,780 --> 00:02:50,881
but the prison's on lockdown
for at least a week.
61
00:02:50,949 --> 00:02:54,284
No visitors, no phone calls.
62
00:02:54,309 --> 00:02:55,876
Can I get a pen and paper?
63
00:02:57,322 --> 00:02:59,323
Pen's a sharp instrument.
64
00:02:59,390 --> 00:03:01,124
Close Cell Four!
65
00:03:07,432 --> 00:03:10,033
Lexi, I hear everything's
going so well at the foundation.
66
00:03:10,101 --> 00:03:12,135
I can't go anywhere
without hearing your name.
67
00:03:12,203 --> 00:03:15,405
Early education and college
scholarships may be one thing,
68
00:03:15,473 --> 00:03:17,374
but you know what we really need?
69
00:03:17,442 --> 00:03:18,842
Lawyers.
70
00:03:18,910 --> 00:03:20,744
If I lose, maybe I'll come knocking.
71
00:03:20,812 --> 00:03:23,113
I'm sure my dad could
give you a good reference.
72
00:03:23,181 --> 00:03:24,548
Spencer, I can't tell you
73
00:03:24,616 --> 00:03:26,783
how much I appreciate you hosting again.
74
00:03:26,851 --> 00:03:28,819
- Polling average has you up two points.
- Mm-hmm.
75
00:03:28,887 --> 00:03:31,255
Margin of error's three. Some say five.
76
00:03:31,322 --> 00:03:33,257
The Attorney General's gonna be
pounding the pavement for us
77
00:03:33,324 --> 00:03:34,324
the next few days.
78
00:03:34,392 --> 00:03:35,692
You know how effective he is.
79
00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:38,161
He told me he could be of help
with Wallace.
80
00:03:38,229 --> 00:03:39,830
Suggest you hear him out.
81
00:03:39,898 --> 00:03:41,131
We've got that under control.
82
00:03:41,199 --> 00:03:43,734
I don't think you do, Glen.
83
00:03:43,801 --> 00:03:45,669
Hear him out.
84
00:03:45,737 --> 00:03:47,905
We can't have Wallace
spouting off to the press.
85
00:03:47,972 --> 00:03:49,840
That's the main thing
the next three days.
86
00:03:49,908 --> 00:03:52,109
I've already worked that out
with security at the courthouse.
87
00:03:52,176 --> 00:03:53,911
And the judge is Sorensen?
88
00:03:53,936 --> 00:03:55,403
She may be our biggest problem.
89
00:03:55,428 --> 00:03:57,596
All right, let me see
what I can do about that.
90
00:03:57,749 --> 00:03:59,550
If you can pull that off...
91
00:03:59,617 --> 00:04:01,018
Let me show you something.
92
00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:04,815
That's Wallace assaulting Dawkins.
93
00:04:05,123 --> 00:04:07,090
Courtesy of Cyrus Hunt.
94
00:04:07,158 --> 00:04:08,692
Reach out to him.
95
00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:10,294
Aaron Wallace was the prison rep
96
00:04:10,361 --> 00:04:12,696
who helped drive him out
of Bellmore to begin with.
97
00:04:16,334 --> 00:04:18,035
Let's keep it very simple.
98
00:04:18,102 --> 00:04:20,504
The police showed you
a photo of me, only me,
99
00:04:20,572 --> 00:04:22,573
and asked you if I sold you drugs.
100
00:04:22,598 --> 00:04:24,633
And I felt pressure
to say what they wanted
101
00:04:24,658 --> 00:04:26,226
because they found a bag on me.
102
00:04:27,879 --> 00:04:29,713
What's with the audio?
I-I keep getting these glitches.
103
00:04:29,781 --> 00:04:31,745
- It's new equipment.
- I know it's new equipment.
104
00:04:31,770 --> 00:04:33,004
I'm the one who had it installed.
105
00:04:33,029 --> 00:04:34,597
Just get me more volume somehow.
106
00:04:34,622 --> 00:04:35,823
You know, they keep calling me,
107
00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:38,224
telling me if I say something
different than last time,
108
00:04:38,248 --> 00:04:39,582
it can be considered perjury.
109
00:04:39,650 --> 00:04:41,717
No. These are different
questions I'm asking you,
110
00:04:41,785 --> 00:04:43,052
and you're telling the truth.
111
00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:44,153
So don't listen to them.
112
00:04:44,221 --> 00:04:46,289
Oh, I'm not,
but I thought you should know
113
00:04:46,356 --> 00:04:49,425
in case they're doing this
to your other witnesses.
114
00:04:49,493 --> 00:04:51,817
Yeah, can't say I'm surprised.
115
00:04:52,262 --> 00:04:54,030
But we're good here.
116
00:04:54,097 --> 00:04:55,698
Go get some rest for tomorrow.
117
00:04:55,766 --> 00:04:57,280
And thank you.
118
00:04:58,669 --> 00:04:59,735
Bring in the next one, please.
119
00:05:04,074 --> 00:05:05,174
Ms. McDonald.
120
00:05:05,242 --> 00:05:06,542
Thank you for coming all the way up here.
121
00:05:06,610 --> 00:05:07,643
I really appreciate it.
122
00:05:07,711 --> 00:05:10,146
Well, your wife really
made it sound important.
123
00:05:10,213 --> 00:05:12,148
And I've been following your story.
124
00:05:12,215 --> 00:05:13,966
I've seen that website
your daughter made for you.
125
00:05:14,072 --> 00:05:15,985
- Mm-hmm.
- I believe you're innocent.
126
00:05:16,053 --> 00:05:18,487
Thank you. I don't get to hear that much.
127
00:05:18,555 --> 00:05:21,123
Just never occurred to me
that there was something wrong
128
00:05:21,148 --> 00:05:22,348
with the District Attorney
129
00:05:22,373 --> 00:05:23,907
coming to the hospital that night.
130
00:05:23,932 --> 00:05:25,799
Well, it's because of
what happened afterwards,
131
00:05:25,996 --> 00:05:27,863
his relationship with the girl's father.
132
00:05:27,931 --> 00:05:31,534
Now, remember, I'm calling you
as a surprise rebuttal witness,
133
00:05:31,601 --> 00:05:33,736
so you can't tell anyone
you're doing this.
134
00:05:40,377 --> 00:05:43,512
You have a deposition I
took in a civil case a few months ago
135
00:05:43,580 --> 00:05:47,717
in which a former Bronx ADA
admitted that...
136
00:05:55,659 --> 00:05:57,860
Hey, new protocol.
Let's check in over here.
137
00:06:06,570 --> 00:06:08,838
Just give me five minutes.
138
00:06:08,905 --> 00:06:10,773
Come on, Joey. Five minutes.
139
00:06:10,841 --> 00:06:12,174
Ma'am.
140
00:06:12,242 --> 00:06:13,342
Hey, Aaron.
141
00:06:13,410 --> 00:06:15,411
Did you arrange all this?
Meeting me down here?
142
00:06:15,479 --> 00:06:18,147
No, but I heard this was
gonna be drop-off today.
143
00:06:18,215 --> 00:06:20,282
Somebody doesn't want me
talking to the press.
144
00:06:20,350 --> 00:06:22,485
Listen, you need to know...
145
00:06:22,552 --> 00:06:25,888
Cassius Dawkins thought you were
a rat and put a hit on you.
146
00:06:25,956 --> 00:06:27,890
Jamal convinced him he would do it.
147
00:06:27,958 --> 00:06:29,525
That's how he got the shiv.
148
00:06:31,294 --> 00:06:33,376
And then he turned it on Cassius
149
00:06:33,930 --> 00:06:36,198
trying to protect me.
150
00:06:36,266 --> 00:06:39,268
I know Hunt has the prison on lockdown,
151
00:06:39,336 --> 00:06:40,436
but when that's over,
152
00:06:40,504 --> 00:06:42,972
if Dawkins' crew spreads
that you're the rat,
153
00:06:43,039 --> 00:06:44,340
you're not gonna have
any friends in there.
154
00:06:44,408 --> 00:06:46,375
You need to put in for a transfer now.
155
00:06:46,443 --> 00:06:47,443
Hunt can never sign off on that.
156
00:06:47,511 --> 00:06:49,445
Just put the paperwork in.
157
00:06:49,513 --> 00:06:51,414
And let me talk to the Board.
158
00:06:55,152 --> 00:06:57,520
It was you who got me out to go to court.
159
00:07:00,157 --> 00:07:02,531
Why are you doing all this for me?
160
00:07:03,026 --> 00:07:04,693
Just do it now.
161
00:07:04,761 --> 00:07:06,076
Okay?
162
00:07:06,563 --> 00:07:09,598
Even with my help,
it could take some time.
163
00:07:23,513 --> 00:07:25,648
Everything all right?
164
00:07:25,715 --> 00:07:27,850
Yeah. Fine.
165
00:07:27,918 --> 00:07:29,585
- No Darius today?
- No.
166
00:07:29,653 --> 00:07:31,086
He wanted to be here Day One,
167
00:07:31,154 --> 00:07:33,322
but he didn't want to be
a distraction to you.
168
00:07:33,390 --> 00:07:35,324
When this is over, he's got some things
169
00:07:35,392 --> 00:07:37,159
he wants to talk to you about.
170
00:07:38,595 --> 00:07:40,095
You switched judges?
171
00:07:40,230 --> 00:07:41,897
Brought in someone who's gunning for me?
172
00:07:41,965 --> 00:07:43,365
Come on. That's got nothing
to do with us.
173
00:07:43,433 --> 00:07:44,800
Governor makes judicial appointments.
174
00:07:44,868 --> 00:07:46,368
You don't like it,
move for an adjournment.
175
00:07:46,436 --> 00:07:49,004
All rise! Court is now in session!
176
00:07:49,072 --> 00:07:52,308
The Honorable Judge
Reginald Cummings presiding.
177
00:07:56,580 --> 00:07:58,180
Counselors.
178
00:08:00,217 --> 00:08:02,051
You may be aware that the Governor
179
00:08:02,118 --> 00:08:04,753
has elevated Judge Sorensen
to the Appellate Division.
180
00:08:04,821 --> 00:08:06,655
I'll be presiding over
all further proceedings
181
00:08:06,723 --> 00:08:07,756
in this matter.
182
00:08:07,824 --> 00:08:09,692
I've already reviewed your briefs
183
00:08:09,759 --> 00:08:11,627
and transcripts
of the opening statements,
184
00:08:11,695 --> 00:08:13,529
so let's get to it.
185
00:08:13,597 --> 00:08:14,897
Mr. Wallace?
186
00:08:21,571 --> 00:08:24,874
You have a deposition I took
in a civil case a few months ago
187
00:08:24,941 --> 00:08:28,611
in which Mr. Adam Yamada,
a former Bronx ADA,
188
00:08:28,678 --> 00:08:31,280
admitted that that office
knowingly prosecuted cases
189
00:08:31,348 --> 00:08:32,948
in which the NYPD used illegal
190
00:08:33,016 --> 00:08:35,451
and unconstitutional
identification procedures.
191
00:08:35,519 --> 00:08:37,019
Objection, Your Honor.
192
00:08:37,087 --> 00:08:39,488
Mr. Yamada admitted to
one administrative oversight
193
00:08:39,556 --> 00:08:40,556
in one case.
194
00:08:40,624 --> 00:08:43,058
I have multiple witnesses
who will testify
195
00:08:43,126 --> 00:08:44,994
that they were shown
only a single photo ID of me.
196
00:08:45,061 --> 00:08:46,362
There's a pattern of...
197
00:08:46,429 --> 00:08:49,498
There is absolutely no reason
to call these witnesses.
198
00:08:49,566 --> 00:08:51,367
Now, if Mr. Wallace
had read People v. Zayas,
199
00:08:51,434 --> 00:08:52,601
- he'd understand...
- I read that case,
200
00:08:52,669 --> 00:08:54,236
and this has nothing to do
with that situation.
201
00:08:54,304 --> 00:08:55,838
One photo, confirmatory ID.
202
00:08:55,906 --> 00:08:57,840
If the complainant and
the defendant know each other...
203
00:08:57,908 --> 00:08:59,341
Or if there are exigencies.
204
00:08:59,409 --> 00:09:00,576
Police and the DEA,
205
00:09:00,644 --> 00:09:02,711
under the directive of
the District Attorney's office,
206
00:09:02,779 --> 00:09:04,213
were staking out my club for months
207
00:09:04,281 --> 00:09:06,515
before they start pulling people
over and searching them.
208
00:09:06,583 --> 00:09:08,684
Stop and frisk becomes find a dime bag
209
00:09:08,752 --> 00:09:10,920
becomes finger me off a single photo ID.
210
00:09:10,945 --> 00:09:12,358
If you ask someone who's been arrested
211
00:09:12,390 --> 00:09:13,838
with a bag of coke in their pocket,
212
00:09:13,863 --> 00:09:15,798
scared out of their minds,
if "This is the guy?",
213
00:09:15,823 --> 00:09:16,990
of course they're gonna say "Yes."
214
00:09:17,015 --> 00:09:18,482
There was no exigency,
215
00:09:18,655 --> 00:09:20,556
no reason they couldn't have
pulled me in for a lineup.
216
00:09:20,581 --> 00:09:22,349
And tip off they were onto you?
217
00:09:22,566 --> 00:09:24,033
They could've used a six-pack.
218
00:09:24,058 --> 00:09:26,260
Instead, what they did
was juice the process.
219
00:09:26,285 --> 00:09:29,554
Mr. O'Reilly, are you conceding
that the NYPD
220
00:09:29,579 --> 00:09:32,581
did use a single photo
to identify Mr. Wallace?
221
00:09:35,312 --> 00:09:37,880
In certain instances, yes.
222
00:09:42,967 --> 00:09:44,534
Call your witnesses, Mr. Wallace.
223
00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:46,593
Let's hear the specifics.
224
00:09:46,790 --> 00:09:48,057
Thank you, Your Honor.
225
00:09:50,156 --> 00:09:53,244
I'm sure Wallace has put in
for the transfer by now.
226
00:09:53,295 --> 00:09:55,125
So what do you want me to do? Call Hunt?
227
00:09:55,193 --> 00:09:57,194
Yes, Jerry, and pressure him to sign it.
228
00:09:57,262 --> 00:10:00,030
It's not like I say "Jump" and
the wardens all say "How high?"
229
00:10:00,098 --> 00:10:01,332
Oh, don't sell yourself short.
230
00:10:01,399 --> 00:10:03,334
You can be very persuasive
when you want to be.
231
00:10:03,401 --> 00:10:04,868
Let me know when it's done.
232
00:10:04,936 --> 00:10:06,971
- Safiya.
- Hmm?
233
00:10:07,038 --> 00:10:09,039
I take it you haven't seen this.
234
00:10:09,734 --> 00:10:12,509
"It's particularly controversial
because of Wallace's ties
235
00:10:12,577 --> 00:10:15,846
to former Bellmore warden
Safiya Masry and her wife."
236
00:10:15,914 --> 00:10:17,805
Where's Anya? Has she seen this yet?
237
00:10:17,830 --> 00:10:19,130
She's on her way.
238
00:10:19,198 --> 00:10:20,865
And she's not happy.
239
00:10:23,802 --> 00:10:26,304
Someone released a
video of you fighting in the riot.
240
00:10:26,371 --> 00:10:28,840
Press is tying you to Masry
and Anya Harrison.
241
00:10:28,907 --> 00:10:30,641
It's a double-dip for Maskins.
242
00:10:30,709 --> 00:10:32,343
How can they even do that?
243
00:10:32,411 --> 00:10:34,145
Isn't it video evidence or something?
244
00:10:34,213 --> 00:10:36,280
Is it even legal
to leak something like that?
245
00:10:36,348 --> 00:10:38,282
They don't play fair.
246
00:10:38,350 --> 00:10:40,051
But we already knew that, right?
247
00:10:41,153 --> 00:10:42,553
There's something else.
248
00:10:43,655 --> 00:10:45,556
We lost the nurse.
249
00:10:45,929 --> 00:10:48,426
She called me last night
to say she was too scared.
250
00:10:48,493 --> 00:10:51,596
They got to her, Aaron.
Like we know they do.
251
00:10:53,432 --> 00:10:55,700
- Cyrus Hunt.
- Mm.
252
00:10:55,767 --> 00:10:57,301
He fed them the intel.
253
00:10:57,369 --> 00:10:59,437
Released the video, too.
254
00:10:59,504 --> 00:11:01,205
It's surveillance from the prison.
255
00:11:01,273 --> 00:11:03,374
- I-I wasn't expecting it...
- And... And knowing that it existed,
256
00:11:03,442 --> 00:11:05,576
you still went and advocated
for Wallace at the Prison Board.
257
00:11:05,644 --> 00:11:07,345
Well, that... that's
never gonna come out.
258
00:11:07,412 --> 00:11:08,579
I'm glad you're so confident.
259
00:11:08,647 --> 00:11:09,814
You... You need to know
260
00:11:09,882 --> 00:11:12,116
that I went to see him yesterday
at Bronx Supreme.
261
00:11:12,184 --> 00:11:13,784
I arranged it with the guards.
262
00:11:13,809 --> 00:11:14,699
Nobody saw us,
263
00:11:14,723 --> 00:11:16,187
- but I wanted you to know.
- Oh, my God. What are you doing?!
264
00:11:16,255 --> 00:11:18,489
He was in danger. I needed to warn him.
265
00:11:18,557 --> 00:11:19,724
You had to do it personally?
266
00:11:19,791 --> 00:11:22,159
I am responsible, Anya!
267
00:11:22,227 --> 00:11:24,595
They sent Cassius Dawkins
to Bellmore to get at me.
268
00:11:24,663 --> 00:11:26,364
That's why he's in this situation.
269
00:11:26,431 --> 00:11:27,899
And I'm in this situation because
270
00:11:27,924 --> 00:11:28,935
you're more worried about him
271
00:11:28,959 --> 00:11:29,977
- than you are your own family.
- No.
272
00:11:30,002 --> 00:11:32,136
This man is fighting for his life,
273
00:11:32,204 --> 00:11:33,871
and you're talking about your PR?
274
00:11:33,939 --> 00:11:37,308
Mom? Y-You're supposed to
start your speech now.
275
00:11:37,376 --> 00:11:38,843
Thank you, honey.
276
00:11:38,911 --> 00:11:40,645
Okay.
277
00:11:40,712 --> 00:11:45,483
Please welcome Brooklyn DA Anya Harrison!
278
00:11:46,985 --> 00:11:49,153
Who is Aaron Wallace?
279
00:11:51,757 --> 00:11:53,391
Who is Aaron Wallace?
280
00:11:56,795 --> 00:11:59,730
Aaron Wallace is a drug kingpin
281
00:11:59,798 --> 00:12:04,791
whose actions hurt young people
and tore apart a community.
282
00:12:05,504 --> 00:12:07,204
Make no mistake.
283
00:12:07,272 --> 00:12:11,475
It's impressive that he managed
to become a lawyer.
284
00:12:11,543 --> 00:12:14,178
But when he uses that power
285
00:12:14,246 --> 00:12:19,216
to mislead his fellow inmates
and manipulate the system,
286
00:12:19,284 --> 00:12:20,859
then we have a problem,
287
00:12:20,908 --> 00:12:24,889
one made worse by the fact
that my opponent's wife,
288
00:12:24,957 --> 00:12:27,391
the former warden of his prison,
289
00:12:27,416 --> 00:12:30,251
has allowed his shenanigans to continue.
290
00:12:30,319 --> 00:12:31,352
That's right.
291
00:12:31,463 --> 00:12:33,164
Anya Harrison's wife,
292
00:12:33,231 --> 00:12:37,268
the woman who wrote a manifesto
about closing prisons,
293
00:12:37,336 --> 00:12:41,706
has cost taxpayers
tens of thousands of dollars
294
00:12:41,731 --> 00:12:44,166
letting this drug dealer
go back and forth to court.
295
00:12:44,276 --> 00:12:45,910
I can't believe he's doing this.
296
00:12:45,978 --> 00:12:48,879
He's worked his whole life
to get to this moment.
297
00:12:48,904 --> 00:12:50,171
To play the race card?
298
00:12:50,196 --> 00:12:52,130
You've seen the video.
299
00:12:52,155 --> 00:12:54,656
Aaron Wallace is not
the peaceful intellectual
300
00:12:54,853 --> 00:12:56,253
the press portrays.
301
00:12:56,321 --> 00:12:58,856
He is a hardened criminal.
302
00:13:00,625 --> 00:13:02,126
All the way from Oakland?
303
00:13:02,194 --> 00:13:04,161
Come on. What'd you think?
I wouldn't come?
304
00:13:05,230 --> 00:13:06,597
- Thank you.
- Good to see you.
305
00:13:06,665 --> 00:13:07,645
Thank you.
306
00:13:09,267 --> 00:13:10,601
Looking good, my friend.
307
00:13:10,669 --> 00:13:12,336
Wore the same suit. For good luck.
308
00:13:14,272 --> 00:13:15,673
You came, too.
309
00:13:15,741 --> 00:13:17,208
Of course.
310
00:13:17,233 --> 00:13:18,968
We're here to support you.
311
00:13:20,278 --> 00:13:21,779
I've already demonstrated
312
00:13:21,804 --> 00:13:23,871
how the police coerced
and manipulated witnesses
313
00:13:23,896 --> 00:13:26,398
by only showing a single photo ID of me
314
00:13:26,551 --> 00:13:28,919
and how the prosecution
failed to disclose
315
00:13:28,944 --> 00:13:31,546
that my club promoter
was a criminal informant.
316
00:13:31,656 --> 00:13:33,557
My question is, why?
317
00:13:33,625 --> 00:13:36,924
Why was their approach toward me
so aggressive?
318
00:13:37,642 --> 00:13:40,777
My answer? I was targeted.
319
00:13:40,806 --> 00:13:42,440
It's my contention that Mr. Maskins
320
00:13:42,465 --> 00:13:44,166
has a history of rushing to judgment,
321
00:13:44,322 --> 00:13:46,490
then hiding evidence
and committing Brady violations
322
00:13:46,515 --> 00:13:48,884
to ensure nothing interferes
with his theories of guilt.
323
00:13:49,007 --> 00:13:51,542
And you want to argue that
this so-called rush to judgment
324
00:13:51,567 --> 00:13:52,867
is due to racial bias.
325
00:13:52,892 --> 00:13:54,492
Well, if you look at
his overcharging patterns,
326
00:13:54,746 --> 00:13:56,614
his sentencing, plea deals...
327
00:13:56,681 --> 00:13:58,116
I have two witnesses who...
328
00:13:58,168 --> 00:13:59,751
Objection, Your Honor.
329
00:13:59,825 --> 00:14:02,653
Mr. Maskins has had a career
spanning 26 years.
330
00:14:02,721 --> 00:14:04,617
I don't see how he can
cherry-pick three cases
331
00:14:04,669 --> 00:14:05,735
and attempt to prove a pattern.
332
00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:07,294
I can compare his record to DAs
333
00:14:07,319 --> 00:14:08,686
in other boroughs, other counties.
334
00:14:08,711 --> 00:14:11,013
The Bronx is almost 90% people of color.
335
00:14:11,038 --> 00:14:12,672
He can't possibly make a fair comparison.
336
00:14:12,697 --> 00:14:14,264
Easley Barton was tried in Long Island.
337
00:14:14,289 --> 00:14:16,590
Mr. O'Reilly is correct.
338
00:14:17,035 --> 00:14:19,455
This is a conversation you can
go have with the voters,
339
00:14:19,525 --> 00:14:21,372
not an argument for my courtroom.
340
00:14:21,440 --> 00:14:22,907
If you would just let me call them,
341
00:14:22,974 --> 00:14:24,241
hear what they have to say.
342
00:14:24,309 --> 00:14:27,278
My position on this is clear, Counselor.
343
00:14:29,134 --> 00:14:30,935
Mr. Barton, Mr. Rodriguez, you may go.
344
00:14:32,551 --> 00:14:35,453
Your testimony will not
be required by the court.
345
00:14:42,913 --> 00:14:44,580
This judge.
346
00:14:44,605 --> 00:14:48,608
Now, Mr. Wallace, assuming
I accept your representations
347
00:14:48,719 --> 00:14:51,053
and review the documents
you've uncovered,
348
00:14:51,121 --> 00:14:53,990
will this be the sum total
of your arguments?
349
00:14:59,930 --> 00:15:02,135
No, Your Honor.
350
00:15:02,966 --> 00:15:05,101
Not without the evidence of a pattern.
351
00:15:05,168 --> 00:15:07,436
I need to call one more witness.
352
00:15:07,504 --> 00:15:10,006
And who would that be?
353
00:15:10,073 --> 00:15:12,008
Her name is Lexi Richardson.
354
00:15:18,523 --> 00:15:21,805
I don't see why Cyrus Hunt would
even want Wallace at Bellmore.
355
00:15:21,830 --> 00:15:24,436
I don't know, Safiya. He
probably wants to torment the guy.
356
00:15:24,461 --> 00:15:25,928
Given their history.
357
00:15:25,996 --> 00:15:28,030
Well, given ours, I was expecting
you to be more effective here.
358
00:15:28,098 --> 00:15:29,932
I had some traction
with the rest of the Board
359
00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:31,334
till that video came out.
360
00:15:31,401 --> 00:15:33,769
Now nobody's gonna bend over backwards
361
00:15:33,837 --> 00:15:36,439
to put Wallace into a "safer" facility.
362
00:15:36,507 --> 00:15:38,474
Hell, I had to fend off half of 'em
363
00:15:38,499 --> 00:15:40,500
just to keep Wallace going to court.
364
00:15:40,611 --> 00:15:44,380
This is a copy of the letter
Jamal Bishop left
365
00:15:44,405 --> 00:15:46,606
on Wallace's bed right before the riot.
366
00:15:46,717 --> 00:15:49,819
And it proves that Wallace had
no idea what Bishop was planning
367
00:15:49,887 --> 00:15:52,488
and only went to the gym
to stop the violence.
368
00:15:52,556 --> 00:15:54,123
You kept a copy of this?
369
00:15:54,191 --> 00:15:56,359
You think the Board has issues now?
370
00:15:56,426 --> 00:15:59,595
But how will it look
if he gets killed at Bellmore
371
00:15:59,663 --> 00:16:01,030
a week after the riot?
372
00:16:08,438 --> 00:16:10,039
? Can you
373
00:16:30,961 --> 00:16:32,295
Is that Jamal?
374
00:16:38,001 --> 00:16:39,468
Hey. Hold up there.
375
00:16:39,536 --> 00:16:41,938
Hey! Hold up.
376
00:16:42,005 --> 00:16:44,240
Let's give him a second.
377
00:16:48,178 --> 00:16:50,980
If they're letting you back in here,
that means you're gonna be all right.
378
00:16:54,017 --> 00:16:55,585
Now, listen to me.
379
00:16:55,652 --> 00:16:59,288
The second you can talk,
OSI's gonna be comin' at ya.
380
00:16:59,356 --> 00:17:01,324
They're gonna try and charge you
for the hit on Cassius.
381
00:17:01,391 --> 00:17:02,825
Now, all you got to say
382
00:17:02,893 --> 00:17:05,261
is that you went after him to protect me.
383
00:17:05,329 --> 00:17:06,495
You hear me?
384
00:17:06,563 --> 00:17:08,698
Okay, we can build a defense around that.
385
00:17:08,765 --> 00:17:12,001
Masry's out. Cyrus Hunt is back in here.
386
00:17:12,069 --> 00:17:14,971
So I put in for a transfer.
For both of us.
387
00:17:15,038 --> 00:17:17,540
Now, this whole place is on lockdown.
388
00:17:17,608 --> 00:17:19,675
I'm not gonna see you for a while.
389
00:17:19,743 --> 00:17:21,077
This is it.
390
00:17:22,179 --> 00:17:23,946
We got our plan, right?
391
00:17:26,116 --> 00:17:27,350
All right.
392
00:17:41,698 --> 00:17:42,999
Thank you.
393
00:17:45,936 --> 00:17:47,592
Now, Ms. Richardson...
394
00:17:48,572 --> 00:17:52,241
is it true you used to frequent my club?
395
00:17:54,745 --> 00:17:58,547
And is it also true
that you bought drugs there?
396
00:18:04,021 --> 00:18:06,022
Why'd you buy those drugs in my club?
397
00:18:10,127 --> 00:18:11,460
Why?
398
00:18:12,829 --> 00:18:14,430
You can't stop this?
399
00:18:14,498 --> 00:18:15,798
I talked to Glen,
400
00:18:15,866 --> 00:18:17,900
and he's gonna personally
oversee your testimony,
401
00:18:17,968 --> 00:18:19,435
and this is gonna backfire on Wallace.
402
00:18:19,503 --> 00:18:21,637
Well, I'm gonna have to talk
about everything that happened.
403
00:18:21,662 --> 00:18:23,896
What happened was this...
404
00:18:24,007 --> 00:18:26,709
that man had a responsibility to you,
405
00:18:26,777 --> 00:18:28,978
to all our sisters, all our daughters.
406
00:18:29,003 --> 00:18:30,970
He was a member of the community,
407
00:18:31,081 --> 00:18:33,049
and he was supposed to protect you.
408
00:18:33,116 --> 00:18:37,053
Instead, he and his punks
turned you on to drugs.
409
00:18:37,120 --> 00:18:41,187
Do you know how close you were
to dying that night?
410
00:18:41,892 --> 00:18:44,660
For that, he should spend
every day of his life
411
00:18:44,728 --> 00:18:46,128
behind bars.
412
00:18:46,153 --> 00:18:48,621
But what about my reputation?
413
00:18:48,646 --> 00:18:49,713
And yours?
414
00:18:49,866 --> 00:18:51,867
And everything we're trying
to build here?
415
00:18:51,935 --> 00:18:53,336
You were a kid.
416
00:18:53,403 --> 00:18:55,534
You made some mistakes.
417
00:18:56,073 --> 00:18:57,807
But that was a long time ago,
418
00:18:57,874 --> 00:18:59,842
and you're an incredible woman now.
419
00:18:59,910 --> 00:19:02,678
Someone who's making a difference.
420
00:19:02,746 --> 00:19:04,647
That's what people know about you,
421
00:19:04,715 --> 00:19:08,050
and nothing Wallace
can say or do will change that.
422
00:19:10,354 --> 00:19:12,755
We've gone through worse than this.
423
00:19:16,893 --> 00:19:18,694
Who are you here for?
424
00:19:18,762 --> 00:19:20,229
Jasmine Wallace.
425
00:19:22,299 --> 00:19:24,367
She said it'll be about 10 minutes.
426
00:19:24,434 --> 00:19:25,601
What are you doing?
427
00:19:25,669 --> 00:19:28,604
We're looking at
Lexi Richardson's social media.
428
00:19:28,672 --> 00:19:30,439
If Dad's gonna question this girl,
429
00:19:30,464 --> 00:19:32,571
there has to be something
we can find out about her.
430
00:19:33,406 --> 00:19:34,643
Like what?
431
00:19:34,711 --> 00:19:37,880
If she was going to the club
back then, at 18, doing drugs,
432
00:19:37,948 --> 00:19:39,949
she must have been into
other kinds of trouble.
433
00:19:41,118 --> 00:19:42,418
It's for Dad.
434
00:19:45,989 --> 00:19:47,156
So, this is an affidavit
435
00:19:47,224 --> 00:19:48,924
from someone who went to school
with Lexi?
436
00:19:48,949 --> 00:19:52,952
Social media's the new PI,
but it was Jazz and Ronnie.
437
00:19:53,063 --> 00:19:54,430
It's rough.
438
00:19:54,498 --> 00:19:56,365
This is how it all started.
439
00:19:56,433 --> 00:19:58,347
You can't back down now.
440
00:19:59,302 --> 00:20:00,803
Do what you got to do.
441
00:20:04,341 --> 00:20:05,908
Yeah.
442
00:20:37,808 --> 00:20:38,908
Wallace?
443
00:20:39,597 --> 00:20:41,076
I need to talk to him.
444
00:20:41,101 --> 00:20:42,735
You know I can't do that.
445
00:20:44,414 --> 00:20:45,872
Can we get a word?
446
00:20:50,720 --> 00:20:53,022
- What's he doing?
- I don't know.
447
00:20:58,361 --> 00:21:00,629
Listen, I don't want to
have to call your daughter.
448
00:21:00,697 --> 00:21:03,365
Then don't, if you have any self-respect.
449
00:21:03,433 --> 00:21:05,534
All I want is a second chance
to prove my innocence,
450
00:21:05,602 --> 00:21:07,503
and they're doing everything
within their power
451
00:21:07,571 --> 00:21:09,171
to make sure I don't get a fair shake.
452
00:21:09,239 --> 00:21:10,773
If you've been following this,
you'd know that.
453
00:21:10,798 --> 00:21:13,533
So now you have no choice
but to bully and humiliate her?
454
00:21:20,851 --> 00:21:21,951
This is an affidavit
455
00:21:22,018 --> 00:21:24,016
from one of your daughter's
high school friends.
456
00:21:24,621 --> 00:21:25,988
According to her,
457
00:21:26,013 --> 00:21:28,314
Lexi's been doing drugs
since the 10th grade.
458
00:21:29,926 --> 00:21:32,461
Now, she says Lexi always felt bad
459
00:21:32,529 --> 00:21:33,662
because you told the DA
460
00:21:33,730 --> 00:21:35,764
to go after the people who corrupted her.
461
00:21:35,832 --> 00:21:38,067
But Lexi told you it was
my people that got her hooked.
462
00:21:38,092 --> 00:21:39,460
What does that have to do with anything?
463
00:21:39,485 --> 00:21:41,453
Now, maybe Maskins went in too hard.
464
00:21:41,605 --> 00:21:44,773
Maybe he saw how angry you were
and smelled an opportunity.
465
00:21:44,841 --> 00:21:46,208
What do you want?
466
00:21:46,276 --> 00:21:48,010
Maybe it's time to admit
467
00:21:48,078 --> 00:21:50,012
that you don't really know
the whole story.
468
00:21:51,448 --> 00:21:53,295
You want me to testify.
469
00:21:53,463 --> 00:21:54,950
I want you to tell the truth.
470
00:21:56,213 --> 00:21:58,487
About what went down that night.
471
00:21:59,242 --> 00:22:02,611
Otherwise, I'm gonna have to
make Lexi go through all that.
472
00:22:13,308 --> 00:22:15,075
So, a year before my arrest,
473
00:22:15,611 --> 00:22:17,445
your daughter used to frequent my club?
474
00:22:17,513 --> 00:22:19,013
Yes.
475
00:22:19,081 --> 00:22:20,815
She used to buy drugs there.
476
00:22:20,883 --> 00:22:23,751
From Michael Miller,
a former employee of mine?
477
00:22:23,819 --> 00:22:25,553
That's hearsay. I can object.
478
00:22:25,621 --> 00:22:27,622
There's no point. He's cooperating.
479
00:22:27,690 --> 00:22:29,257
Yes.
480
00:22:29,325 --> 00:22:31,059
From Michael Miller.
481
00:22:31,084 --> 00:22:34,720
And on the night of
February 12th, what happened?
482
00:22:36,832 --> 00:22:39,200
She had an overdose.
483
00:22:40,669 --> 00:22:43,871
Your employees didn't want
to risk calling an ambulance,
484
00:22:43,939 --> 00:22:47,725
so they dumped her at St. Jude's.
485
00:22:48,310 --> 00:22:50,244
You must have been very upset.
486
00:22:51,166 --> 00:22:53,200
You could say that.
487
00:22:53,441 --> 00:22:54,908
So what did you do?
488
00:22:54,933 --> 00:22:56,634
I called a friend with connections
489
00:22:56,659 --> 00:22:58,360
to the District Attorney's office.
490
00:22:58,600 --> 00:23:02,236
An hour later, Glen Maskins showed up.
491
00:23:03,231 --> 00:23:05,866
And he was only an Assistant
District Attorney at the time.
492
00:23:05,940 --> 00:23:07,307
That's right.
493
00:23:07,663 --> 00:23:10,465
And were you surprised when
Mr. Maskins came so quickly?
494
00:23:10,490 --> 00:23:11,924
No.
495
00:23:12,034 --> 00:23:14,302
I'm used to having people
respond that way.
496
00:23:14,327 --> 00:23:16,728
Because you're a man of power, money,
497
00:23:16,911 --> 00:23:18,464
standing in the community.
498
00:23:19,148 --> 00:23:21,015
That's right.
499
00:23:21,310 --> 00:23:23,611
So, when Mr. Maskins
came to the hospital,
500
00:23:23,679 --> 00:23:24,912
what did you tell him?
501
00:23:24,980 --> 00:23:27,215
I told him I believed
the people at the Trinity Club
502
00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:29,208
were responsible for this.
503
00:23:29,318 --> 00:23:31,953
He assured me he'd make them pay.
504
00:23:31,978 --> 00:23:33,745
And was that the response
you were looking for?
505
00:23:33,770 --> 00:23:35,037
It was.
506
00:23:35,344 --> 00:23:37,578
And did he deliver on that promise?
507
00:23:37,799 --> 00:23:39,735
I believe he did.
508
00:23:40,436 --> 00:23:43,704
And when Glen Maskins
ran for District Attorney,
509
00:23:43,738 --> 00:23:46,073
the office he holds now,
510
00:23:46,098 --> 00:23:47,465
did you contribute to that campaign?
511
00:23:47,662 --> 00:23:48,929
I did.
512
00:23:49,017 --> 00:23:50,317
A great deal.
513
00:23:51,633 --> 00:23:53,334
Did you help bundle contributions
514
00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:55,093
from wealthy donors in the community?
515
00:23:55,118 --> 00:23:56,485
I did.
516
00:23:56,510 --> 00:23:57,744
Throw fundraisers?
517
00:23:57,769 --> 00:23:59,070
Yes.
518
00:23:59,095 --> 00:24:01,496
And in his current run
for Attorney General?
519
00:24:01,521 --> 00:24:03,255
I can't.
520
00:24:07,348 --> 00:24:12,119
He has continued to receive
my full support.
521
00:24:14,076 --> 00:24:15,977
Now, is it your belief
522
00:24:16,265 --> 00:24:19,566
that when Glen Maskins came
to the hospital on that night
523
00:24:19,888 --> 00:24:24,058
that he targeted me
to gain access to you?
524
00:24:24,119 --> 00:24:25,820
Your money and your friends?
525
00:24:33,635 --> 00:24:35,135
I don't know.
526
00:24:36,598 --> 00:24:38,365
You'd have to ask him.
527
00:24:39,767 --> 00:24:42,135
I think it's safe to say, Your Honor,
528
00:24:42,160 --> 00:24:46,563
that if there was quid pro quo,
even if it was implied,
529
00:24:46,761 --> 00:24:49,012
that that constitutes an abuse of power.
530
00:24:51,619 --> 00:24:52,619
Thank you.
531
00:24:59,241 --> 00:25:02,076
Mr. O'Reilly,
Mr. Maskins, cross-examination?
532
00:25:04,613 --> 00:25:06,307
Mr. O'Reilly?
533
00:25:06,361 --> 00:25:07,315
Okay.
534
00:25:07,340 --> 00:25:08,942
Yes, Your Honor.
535
00:25:08,967 --> 00:25:12,436
The people would like to call
Mr. Glen Maskins to the stand.
536
00:25:15,283 --> 00:25:17,217
In my chambers.
537
00:25:17,242 --> 00:25:18,509
All of you.
538
00:25:18,534 --> 00:25:19,667
Now.
539
00:25:20,929 --> 00:25:23,097
I understand there's an election
happening tomorrow
540
00:25:23,122 --> 00:25:24,723
and you're worried about the media,
541
00:25:24,748 --> 00:25:26,950
but I am not going to allow
this collateral matter
542
00:25:26,975 --> 00:25:28,576
to make a circus out of my courtroom.
543
00:25:28,601 --> 00:25:30,301
My apologies, Your Honor,
544
00:25:30,326 --> 00:25:33,161
but the entire idea
that I sold out justice
545
00:25:33,186 --> 00:25:35,687
to ingratiate myself to a wealthy man
546
00:25:35,712 --> 00:25:38,447
is offensive and completely inaccurate.
547
00:25:38,487 --> 00:25:41,089
I believe I should have been
given a chance to directly rebut.
548
00:25:41,114 --> 00:25:43,149
You can rebut now.
Here. Where it matters.
549
00:25:43,237 --> 00:25:44,237
Fine.
550
00:25:44,262 --> 00:25:46,497
The simple truth is,
I went after Mr. Wallace
551
00:25:46,522 --> 00:25:50,325
because Lexi Richardson OD'd
on drugs she got at his club.
552
00:25:50,612 --> 00:25:52,713
The police investigated. We prosecuted.
553
00:25:52,738 --> 00:25:54,739
He was tried by a jury of his peers,
554
00:25:54,764 --> 00:25:56,998
and they spent
less than two days deliberating
555
00:25:57,023 --> 00:25:59,825
because it was a slam dunk
and he was guilty.
556
00:26:00,088 --> 00:26:02,590
I did my job, and I did it well.
557
00:26:02,615 --> 00:26:05,450
And for that, Mr. Richardson
decided to support me,
558
00:26:05,475 --> 00:26:07,275
as is his right.
559
00:26:08,217 --> 00:26:09,985
Now, I don't know about you,
Your Honor, but I found
560
00:26:10,052 --> 00:26:11,820
Mr. Wallace's leveraging
of his daughter against him
561
00:26:11,887 --> 00:26:13,288
to be disgusting.
562
00:26:13,356 --> 00:26:15,857
More than what happened to Easley Barton?
563
00:26:15,925 --> 00:26:18,026
Or Jose Rodriguez?
564
00:26:18,094 --> 00:26:20,562
Men who were innocent
that were put away for years
565
00:26:20,629 --> 00:26:21,763
under your direction...
566
00:26:21,831 --> 00:26:24,366
26 years I've been doing this job.
567
00:26:24,433 --> 00:26:27,102
I've tried hundreds of cases,
overseen thousands.
568
00:26:27,169 --> 00:26:28,770
So for you to handpick two
569
00:26:28,838 --> 00:26:31,006
and present those as evidence
of what I'm about...
570
00:26:31,073 --> 00:26:32,841
You are not on trial here, Mr. Maskins.
571
00:26:32,908 --> 00:26:35,077
Oh, but I am now.
572
00:26:35,578 --> 00:26:38,046
With the entire premise of this motion.
573
00:26:38,114 --> 00:26:39,547
This idea
574
00:26:39,615 --> 00:26:41,182
of a pattern of corruption.
575
00:26:41,250 --> 00:26:43,210
You want to talk about my witness,
576
00:26:43,779 --> 00:26:46,147
the nurse who suddenly got cold feet
577
00:26:46,172 --> 00:26:48,173
after your people coerced her?
578
00:26:48,424 --> 00:26:50,158
Is there evidence of that?
579
00:26:52,194 --> 00:26:53,995
Of course not.
580
00:26:54,063 --> 00:26:55,964
Because all he has are insinuations.
581
00:26:56,032 --> 00:26:57,665
He throws crap against the wall
582
00:26:57,733 --> 00:26:59,434
and hopes for something to stick.
583
00:26:59,502 --> 00:27:02,570
My witnesses have a habit
of disappearing on me
584
00:27:02,638 --> 00:27:04,639
the day they're supposed to
be called, Your Honor.
585
00:27:04,707 --> 00:27:05,740
That's what I would have presented
586
00:27:05,808 --> 00:27:07,609
had I been able to talk
about Jose Rodriguez.
587
00:27:07,676 --> 00:27:09,677
That's what happened
to that criminal informant...
588
00:27:09,745 --> 00:27:10,912
Angelo Torres.
589
00:27:10,980 --> 00:27:12,147
Mr. Maskins?
590
00:27:13,449 --> 00:27:15,483
Here it is, Your Honor.
591
00:27:15,551 --> 00:27:19,421
This man has spent the last four months
592
00:27:19,488 --> 00:27:21,022
doing everything he can to make this
593
00:27:21,090 --> 00:27:22,624
about me and my record
594
00:27:22,691 --> 00:27:25,427
and not about the facts in his own case.
595
00:27:25,494 --> 00:27:28,463
He has looked for
inflammatory cold cases.
596
00:27:28,531 --> 00:27:30,532
He has preened before the press.
597
00:27:30,599 --> 00:27:32,834
He has used his position in prison
598
00:27:32,902 --> 00:27:36,905
to find vulnerable inmates
and twisted their cases around
599
00:27:36,972 --> 00:27:39,941
in an effort to malign me and my record.
600
00:27:41,010 --> 00:27:42,944
At school, my son
has been called a racist
601
00:27:43,012 --> 00:27:45,580
because of the bile Mr. Wallace
has been trying to unleash.
602
00:27:45,648 --> 00:27:48,316
Are you really gonna stand here
and talk about your family
603
00:27:48,384 --> 00:27:49,918
after what you've done to mine?!
604
00:27:49,985 --> 00:27:51,686
And you honestly think
you have a leg to stand...
605
00:27:51,754 --> 00:27:53,721
Gentlemen, I'm going to stop this now.
606
00:27:53,789 --> 00:27:56,091
I have what I need to make a judgment.
607
00:27:56,158 --> 00:27:59,828
I'll need a day or so to review
the documentation and briefs.
608
00:27:59,895 --> 00:28:01,496
You'll have my decision then.
609
00:28:09,105 --> 00:28:10,271
Your Honor.
610
00:28:12,775 --> 00:28:16,511
I know this has no relevance to
what you have to consider now...
611
00:28:16,579 --> 00:28:18,213
but I'm innocent.
612
00:28:28,550 --> 00:28:31,167
Even with the revelations
about Spencer Richardson,
613
00:28:31,192 --> 00:28:32,316
the damage from that video
614
00:28:32,340 --> 00:28:33,907
and Safiya's association with Wallace
615
00:28:33,975 --> 00:28:35,497
puts us on the defensive.
616
00:28:35,522 --> 00:28:36,589
And it gets worse.
617
00:28:36,657 --> 00:28:38,257
Safiya's proposals to close prisons
618
00:28:38,325 --> 00:28:41,294
are suddenly making their rounds
on the Internet.
619
00:28:41,361 --> 00:28:42,795
Oh, come on.
620
00:28:42,863 --> 00:28:44,197
You need to disavow Wallace
621
00:28:44,264 --> 00:28:45,865
and distance yourself from Safiya.
622
00:28:45,933 --> 00:28:47,900
Now? On the day of the election?
623
00:28:47,968 --> 00:28:51,170
You're going to get asked about
it all day today by the press.
624
00:28:51,238 --> 00:28:53,006
Here are some talking points.
625
00:29:00,547 --> 00:29:02,615
Looks like she's winning
in the early count,
626
00:29:02,683 --> 00:29:06,018
but we don't know if it's from
the urban vote or what.
627
00:29:06,436 --> 00:29:09,121
You saw what she said about Dad today.
628
00:29:09,481 --> 00:29:12,358
I guess... she won't be
of much help anyways.
629
00:29:12,426 --> 00:29:13,960
She was just being a politician.
630
00:29:14,027 --> 00:29:16,562
But the worst thing for us
is if Maskins wins.
631
00:29:16,630 --> 00:29:19,665
It won't even matter
if Dad doesn't get his retrial.
632
00:29:19,733 --> 00:29:21,601
He'll be out of moves, right?
633
00:29:25,611 --> 00:29:26,911
He'll win.
634
00:29:28,714 --> 00:29:30,682
You believe in him again?
635
00:29:32,305 --> 00:29:34,406
Yes. I do.
636
00:29:35,349 --> 00:29:36,508
Don't you?
637
00:29:36,572 --> 00:29:38,284
I always will.
638
00:29:38,352 --> 00:29:41,287
But I've seen what these people can do.
639
00:29:41,355 --> 00:29:42,755
And now...
640
00:29:44,291 --> 00:29:45,391
Mom?
641
00:29:45,459 --> 00:29:46,926
What?
642
00:29:46,994 --> 00:29:48,895
I think my water just broke.
643
00:29:54,001 --> 00:29:55,801
Yo, Wallace.
644
00:29:55,869 --> 00:29:58,321
Just got word. You got court tomorrow.
645
00:29:59,948 --> 00:30:02,408
You hear anything about the election?
646
00:30:02,476 --> 00:30:04,040
Ladies and gentlemen,
647
00:30:04,064 --> 00:30:05,444
I am very proud to present
648
00:30:05,512 --> 00:30:08,047
the man who will follow
in my footsteps...
649
00:30:08,115 --> 00:30:10,149
my prot�g� and friend,
650
00:30:10,217 --> 00:30:13,486
the next Attorney General
of the great state of New York,
651
00:30:13,554 --> 00:30:15,254
Mr. Glen Maskins!
652
00:30:54,461 --> 00:30:56,696
She tried to stay up for you.
653
00:30:58,497 --> 00:31:00,431
Promised I wouldn't move her.
654
00:31:04,797 --> 00:31:06,298
I'm sorry.
655
00:31:09,610 --> 00:31:10,943
For what?
656
00:31:13,981 --> 00:31:15,548
That you lost.
657
00:31:21,288 --> 00:31:23,856
I don't know how we get past this.
658
00:31:23,924 --> 00:31:25,224
Do you?
659
00:31:50,584 --> 00:31:51,751
Jasmine's in labor.
660
00:31:51,818 --> 00:31:53,719
Marie's with her at the hospital.
661
00:31:53,787 --> 00:31:56,122
She's five weeks early. Something wrong?
662
00:31:56,189 --> 00:31:57,957
Marie says that's totally normal,
663
00:31:58,025 --> 00:31:59,759
especially for a first pregnancy.
664
00:32:02,863 --> 00:32:05,531
S-She wanted me to tell you, so...
665
00:32:07,067 --> 00:32:08,701
Well, thanks for letting me know.
666
00:32:10,910 --> 00:32:11,940
Aaron.
667
00:32:18,045 --> 00:32:19,671
I'm pulling for you today.
668
00:32:20,940 --> 00:32:22,541
For whatever it's worth.
669
00:32:30,524 --> 00:32:32,024
You should come.
670
00:32:41,835 --> 00:32:43,703
He's almost here.
671
00:32:43,770 --> 00:32:45,404
He's almost here.
672
00:32:45,472 --> 00:32:48,641
Three, two, one.
673
00:32:48,709 --> 00:32:50,743
- Push, push, push, push.
- There you go. You're doing fine.
674
00:32:50,811 --> 00:32:52,344
Push, push, push, push!
675
00:32:52,412 --> 00:32:53,679
Push! Push!
676
00:33:00,353 --> 00:33:03,155
All rise! Court is now in session!
677
00:33:03,223 --> 00:33:06,425
The Honorable Judge
Reginald Cummings presiding.
678
00:33:13,200 --> 00:33:14,734
You can be seated.
679
00:33:21,808 --> 00:33:26,278
Unfortunately, this case has
already been used by both sides
680
00:33:26,303 --> 00:33:28,171
to score political points.
681
00:33:28,281 --> 00:33:30,382
That ends now.
682
00:33:30,450 --> 00:33:33,986
Coming out of here,
nothing more to the media.
683
00:33:34,011 --> 00:33:36,646
No mention of Aaron Wallace in speeches,
684
00:33:36,671 --> 00:33:38,905
no mention of a corrupt Attorney General.
685
00:33:39,059 --> 00:33:40,126
Are we clear?
686
00:33:41,862 --> 00:33:43,362
- Yes, Your Honor.
- Yes, Your Honor.
687
00:33:43,387 --> 00:33:44,412
Good.
688
00:33:44,443 --> 00:33:46,766
As for the motion for retrial,
689
00:33:46,833 --> 00:33:49,235
I am entirely unconvinced by the argument
690
00:33:49,302 --> 00:33:51,270
that there was a rush to judgment
691
00:33:51,338 --> 00:33:53,405
or racial animus at play here.
692
00:33:53,473 --> 00:33:55,775
When it comes to the conduct
of the prosecution,
693
00:33:55,800 --> 00:34:00,037
I am troubled by the casual
manipulation of eyewitnesses
694
00:34:00,062 --> 00:34:01,962
and by the disclosure issues
695
00:34:01,987 --> 00:34:03,983
surrounding the criminal informant.
696
00:34:05,485 --> 00:34:07,486
But those factors, while serious,
697
00:34:07,554 --> 00:34:09,922
are not enough to trigger
the cost and expense
698
00:34:09,947 --> 00:34:11,647
of a lengthy retrial.
699
00:34:16,096 --> 00:34:17,229
However...
700
00:34:17,297 --> 00:34:19,131
when one adds to the mix
701
00:34:19,199 --> 00:34:22,768
the abundant enthusiasm
and confounding specificity
702
00:34:22,836 --> 00:34:25,604
with which the District Attorney
pursued this case,
703
00:34:25,672 --> 00:34:28,941
all seemingly triggered by
the overdose of Ms. Richardson,
704
00:34:28,966 --> 00:34:32,268
it's clear to me not that
Mr. Wallace is guilty or innocent,
705
00:34:32,379 --> 00:34:34,346
but that, as a matter of law,
706
00:34:34,414 --> 00:34:38,150
the errors that I described
cannot be said to be harmless.
707
00:34:38,218 --> 00:34:39,727
As a result...
708
00:34:41,021 --> 00:34:44,623
I am compelled to find
that a retrial is warranted.
709
00:34:44,691 --> 00:34:46,091
Yes!
710
00:34:46,651 --> 00:34:48,561
Mr. Wallace deserves an opportunity
711
00:34:48,586 --> 00:34:52,422
to present his defense
before a new and impartial jury.
712
00:34:52,532 --> 00:34:55,534
Accordingly, the previous
judgment of conviction
713
00:34:55,559 --> 00:34:57,059
is set aside,
714
00:34:57,170 --> 00:35:00,606
and a new trial is ordered
with all deliberate speed.
715
00:35:19,860 --> 00:35:21,961
Hey!
716
00:35:27,634 --> 00:35:29,401
Meet your grandson...
717
00:35:29,469 --> 00:35:33,005
Aaron Wallace, 7 pounds, 11 ounces.
718
00:35:34,908 --> 00:35:36,642
I missed it.
719
00:35:36,710 --> 00:35:39,812
Hey, you'll meet him soon enough.
720
00:35:42,912 --> 00:35:44,617
I'm a grandfather.
721
00:35:44,684 --> 00:35:46,819
Wow.
722
00:35:46,887 --> 00:35:48,420
Congratulations.
723
00:36:35,326 --> 00:36:36,727
I took your word for it all along,
724
00:36:36,752 --> 00:36:38,220
but I've read all the transcripts now.
725
00:36:38,245 --> 00:36:39,345
I heard what the judge said.
726
00:36:39,370 --> 00:36:40,837
If I'd have ever known what you did...
727
00:36:40,862 --> 00:36:43,130
We were aggressive where we needed to be.
728
00:36:43,155 --> 00:36:44,689
We got the job done.
729
00:36:44,714 --> 00:36:46,248
And the man is guilty.
730
00:36:46,273 --> 00:36:47,740
Maybe. Or maybe he's not.
731
00:36:47,765 --> 00:36:49,265
And do you know what
that would mean for me?
732
00:36:49,716 --> 00:36:52,293
Spencer, there is no way
this bounces back at you.
733
00:36:52,318 --> 00:36:55,086
I'm not talking about my reputation!
734
00:36:55,334 --> 00:36:58,303
If I'm in any way responsible
for that man losing...
735
00:37:01,093 --> 00:37:02,794
Make it go away, Glen.
736
00:37:02,819 --> 00:37:04,286
Make it go away.
