NARRATOR:
In the criminal justice system,
2
00:00:03,271 --> 00:00:06,040
sexually based offenses are
considered especially heinous.
3
00:00:06,074 --> 00:00:08,209
In New York City,
the dedicated detectives
4
00:00:08,242 --> 00:00:10,211
who investigate
these vicious felonies
5
00:00:10,244 --> 00:00:11,545
are members of an elite squad
6
00:00:11,579 --> 00:00:13,347
known as
the Special Victims Unit.
7
00:00:13,381 --> 00:00:16,084
These are their stories.
8
00:00:17,818 --> 00:00:19,387
I'm taking Rachel
to a dance audition,
9
00:00:19,420 --> 00:00:21,222
so you'll have
to pick Eli up
from soccer.
10
00:00:21,255 --> 00:00:22,823
Mm-hmm.
11
00:00:22,856 --> 00:00:25,359
The Westers asked
if we could come to
dinner Friday night.
12
00:00:25,393 --> 00:00:27,395
Sounds great, hon.
13
00:00:27,428 --> 00:00:29,630
And I'm going to run off
to Belize with the paperboy.
14
00:00:29,663 --> 00:00:30,831
Mm-hmm.
( clanging )
15
00:00:30,864 --> 00:00:32,100
What the hell was that?
16
00:00:32,133 --> 00:00:33,701
It's a miracle. He can hear.
17
00:00:33,734 --> 00:00:35,336
Damn homeless
make a mess
18
00:00:35,369 --> 00:00:37,638
with our garbage
and Sanitation fines me.
19
00:00:37,671 --> 00:00:38,639
Not this time!
20
00:00:38,672 --> 00:00:39,707
Sam...
21
00:00:41,809 --> 00:00:43,744
Who's there?
22
00:00:43,777 --> 00:00:45,413
Get out of there right now!
23
00:00:45,446 --> 00:00:48,082
Don't hurt me.
24
00:00:52,386 --> 00:00:54,455
Homeowner found him
eating out of the trash.
25
00:00:54,488 --> 00:00:56,524
The kid looks eight or nine.
Real skinny, no coat.
26
00:00:56,557 --> 00:00:57,425
What's his story?
27
00:00:57,458 --> 00:00:59,127
Won't talk.
Kid's pretty freaked out.
28
00:00:59,160 --> 00:01:00,128
Well, no wonder.
29
00:01:00,161 --> 00:01:02,596
You've got him locked up
in the back of your car.
30
00:01:02,630 --> 00:01:04,732
Just keeping him safe
for you kiddie cops.
31
00:01:04,765 --> 00:01:07,435
I figure he eats garbage,
he's abused.
32
00:01:07,468 --> 00:01:08,736
What do you think,
homeless or runaway?
33
00:01:08,769 --> 00:01:10,538
He looks pretty clean
for a street kid.
34
00:01:10,571 --> 00:01:11,739
Hey, buddy.
How are you doing?
35
00:01:11,772 --> 00:01:13,107
I'm Elliot.
36
00:01:13,141 --> 00:01:15,176
This is Olivia.
37
00:01:15,209 --> 00:01:16,510
What's your name?
38
00:01:17,178 --> 00:01:18,546
Look, you're not
in trouble.
39
00:01:18,579 --> 00:01:20,848
We just want
to talk with you.
40
00:01:22,150 --> 00:01:24,885
Please tell me
your name?
41
00:01:24,918 --> 00:01:25,886
Jacob Nesbit.
42
00:01:25,919 --> 00:01:28,889
Hey, Jacob.
You live around here?
43
00:01:28,922 --> 00:01:29,723
97th Street.
44
00:01:29,757 --> 00:01:32,393
97th Street? That's
just a block away.
45
00:01:32,426 --> 00:01:33,761
Who do you live with?
46
00:01:33,794 --> 00:01:35,296
My mom and my brother.
47
00:01:35,329 --> 00:01:37,165
Yeah? What about your dad?
48
00:01:37,198 --> 00:01:38,199
He's dead.
49
00:01:40,734 --> 00:01:43,837
Please don't tell
my mom I was eating.
50
00:01:47,741 --> 00:01:51,779

UNIVERSAL NETWORK TELEVISION

and NBC
52
00:02:38,426 --> 00:02:39,827
You sure are hungry.
53
00:02:39,860 --> 00:02:41,962
I never had pancakes before.
54
00:02:41,995 --> 00:02:44,632
Your mom's never made
them for you?
55
00:02:44,665 --> 00:02:46,700
No. She says
they're against the rules.
56
00:02:46,734 --> 00:02:47,701
What rules?
57
00:02:47,735 --> 00:02:49,703
About food and stuff.
58
00:02:49,737 --> 00:02:54,942
What's good to eat, what's not,
how much food I can have...
59
00:02:54,975 --> 00:02:57,311
Your brother
have rules, too?
60
00:02:57,345 --> 00:02:59,947
Yeah.
But Adam never breaks them.
61
00:02:59,980 --> 00:03:03,717
Well, what happens
when you do break them?
62
00:03:03,751 --> 00:03:05,686
You get a punishment.
63
00:03:05,719 --> 00:03:07,255
What's the punishment?
64
00:03:09,923 --> 00:03:12,960
I don't want to talk about it.
65
00:03:12,993 --> 00:03:15,329
Jacob, I'm just trying
to help you out here,
66
00:03:15,363 --> 00:03:17,465
but I need for you
to trust me.
67
00:03:17,498 --> 00:03:20,868
My mom says what happens
at home stays at home.
68
00:03:20,901 --> 00:03:23,904
And what you and I talk
about in this room
69
00:03:23,937 --> 00:03:27,207
stays in this room.
70
00:03:29,477 --> 00:03:31,745
I can't tell you.
71
00:03:31,779 --> 00:03:32,746
It's against the rules.
72
00:03:32,780 --> 00:03:34,648
Can I finish my breakfast?
73
00:03:34,682 --> 00:03:38,586
Yeah, sure.
74
00:03:38,619 --> 00:03:42,823
We can't keep him here
unless there's some
allegation of abuse.
75
00:03:42,856 --> 00:03:44,024
He's scared
out of his wits.
76
00:03:44,057 --> 00:03:45,393
He doesn't want
his mother
77
00:03:45,426 --> 00:03:46,627
to know that he was eating.
78
00:03:46,660 --> 00:03:49,397
Something is going on here.
79
00:03:49,430 --> 00:03:51,899
All right.
Check her out.
80
00:03:51,932 --> 00:03:52,833
I'll call ACS
81
00:03:52,866 --> 00:03:55,869
and see if they
got anything
on the family.
82
00:03:59,807 --> 00:04:01,809
( knocking )
83
00:04:04,011 --> 00:04:04,978
Can I help you?
84
00:04:05,012 --> 00:04:07,515
I'm Detective Benson.
This is Detective Stabler.
85
00:04:07,548 --> 00:04:09,483
Let me get my mom.
86
00:04:09,517 --> 00:04:11,419
Please wait here.
87
00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:14,755
Kid's awful polite.
88
00:04:14,788 --> 00:04:17,425
Or just obeying
the rules.
89
00:04:21,061 --> 00:04:23,764
Hi, I'm-I'm Marilyn Nesbit.
90
00:04:23,797 --> 00:04:24,665
Is Jacob all right?
91
00:04:24,698 --> 00:04:26,934
Actually, we have him
down at our station.
92
00:04:26,967 --> 00:04:29,002
Can we come inside
and talk to you
for a sec?
93
00:04:29,036 --> 00:04:32,039
What about?
94
00:04:32,072 --> 00:04:33,006
Why you didn't
report your
son missing?
95
00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:35,509
He runs away and comes home
all the time.
96
00:04:35,543 --> 00:04:36,944
I wasn't really worried.
97
00:04:36,977 --> 00:04:38,446
Mrs. Nesbit,
we found your son
98
00:04:38,479 --> 00:04:41,515
eating chicken
out of a garbage can.
99
00:04:41,549 --> 00:04:43,851
We'd really like
to talk to you about it.
100
00:04:45,919 --> 00:04:48,422
I know my rights.
101
00:04:48,456 --> 00:04:49,857
I don't have to let you in.
102
00:04:49,890 --> 00:04:52,460
You bring my son home
or I'll call a lawyer.
103
00:04:53,761 --> 00:04:54,728
Cops tell me
that my kid
104
00:04:54,762 --> 00:04:57,465
is down at the station,
I'd be there right away.
105
00:04:57,498 --> 00:04:58,466
What's she so afraid of?
106
00:04:58,499 --> 00:04:59,467
I don't know,
107
00:04:59,500 --> 00:05:00,468
but he's not coming
back here
108
00:05:00,501 --> 00:05:01,502
until we get
some answers.
109
00:05:01,535 --> 00:05:04,071
BENSON:
Maybe she has some.
110
00:05:04,104 --> 00:05:07,007
Ma'am. Do you mind
if we have a word with you?
111
00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:08,942
Certainly.
112
00:05:10,578 --> 00:05:13,747
Marilyn Nesbit
is a lovely woman.
113
00:05:13,781 --> 00:05:15,783
She brings me homemade muffins
114
00:05:15,816 --> 00:05:19,086
and she sends her boys over
to help me do my chores.
115
00:05:19,119 --> 00:05:21,889
Did you ever notice any marks
or bruises on the boys?
116
00:05:21,922 --> 00:05:23,023
Oh, no.
They don't roughhouse.
117
00:05:23,056 --> 00:05:25,959
Jacob ran away. Have you heard
any yelling or fighting?
118
00:05:25,993 --> 00:05:29,129
He didn't run away.
He's just adventurous.
119
00:05:29,162 --> 00:05:31,999
He's a handful.
120
00:05:32,032 --> 00:05:34,868
I don't know how his mother
manages alone.
121
00:05:34,902 --> 00:05:36,970
When did the boy's father die?
122
00:05:37,004 --> 00:05:37,971
When Marilyn
was pregnant
123
00:05:38,005 --> 00:05:38,939
with Jacob.
124
00:05:38,972 --> 00:05:42,042
Went out for some milk,
walked into a store,
125
00:05:42,075 --> 00:05:43,777
walked right into a holdup.
126
00:05:43,811 --> 00:05:46,380
He was killed
by a 13-year-old boy.
127
00:05:46,414 --> 00:05:50,918
Now Marilyn stays home
with the children all day.
128
00:05:50,951 --> 00:05:52,553
Don't the boys go to school?
129
00:05:52,586 --> 00:05:53,821
Didn't she tell you?
130
00:05:53,854 --> 00:05:58,726
She homeschools Adam and Jacob.
131
00:06:00,594 --> 00:06:02,930
Marilyn Nesbit has
homeschooled her children
132
00:06:02,963 --> 00:06:05,399
for the past seven years.
133
00:06:05,433 --> 00:06:07,968
She took Adam out of public
school after second grade.
134
00:06:08,001 --> 00:06:09,970
Jacob's never
been enrolled.
135
00:06:10,003 --> 00:06:12,139
Anyone check on the boys?
136
00:06:12,172 --> 00:06:14,041
No one. The law requires
lesson plans,
137
00:06:14,074 --> 00:06:15,543
status reports
every semester.
138
00:06:15,576 --> 00:06:17,578
Marilyn's always
filed them on time.
139
00:06:17,611 --> 00:06:19,847
These lesson plans
look pretty detailed.
140
00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:21,482
They're downloaded
off the Internet
141
00:06:21,515 --> 00:06:23,050
from the New York
Homeschool League.
142
00:06:23,083 --> 00:06:24,685
So any parent
can yank their kid
143
00:06:24,718 --> 00:06:26,053
out of school
just by filing forms
144
00:06:26,086 --> 00:06:27,054
off a website?
145
00:06:27,087 --> 00:06:29,156
We're lucky we even have
any regulations at all.
146
00:06:29,189 --> 00:06:31,158
Some states
don't require parents
147
00:06:31,191 --> 00:06:32,993
to notify the school board.
148
00:06:33,026 --> 00:06:35,996
How many kids
are we talking about?
149
00:06:36,029 --> 00:06:38,031
Nationwide, the closest estimate
is one million.
150
00:06:38,065 --> 00:06:42,169
Sounds like you're
not a big fan of
homeschooling.
151
00:06:42,202 --> 00:06:43,671
I am when it works.
152
00:06:43,704 --> 00:06:45,439
But going to school
provides kids
153
00:06:45,473 --> 00:06:47,040
with more than an education.
154
00:06:47,074 --> 00:06:49,510
It's a safety net
that catches medical,
155
00:06:49,543 --> 00:06:51,178
psychological,
developmental problems,
156
00:06:51,211 --> 00:06:52,112
and child abuse.
157
00:06:52,145 --> 00:06:53,714
You think
that Marilyn Nesbit
158
00:06:53,747 --> 00:06:56,183
was using homeschooling
as a smoke screen for abuse?
159
00:06:56,216 --> 00:06:58,852
There are no red flags on file.
160
00:06:58,886 --> 00:07:03,190
Maybe you need to talk
to Adam's old school teachers.
161
00:07:03,223 --> 00:07:05,459
I taught Adam
in second grade.
162
00:07:05,493 --> 00:07:07,127
He was smart and sweet,
163
00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:09,229
but he had some
emotional issues.
164
00:07:09,262 --> 00:07:10,964
Like what?
165
00:07:10,998 --> 00:07:13,667
Lots of fears,
more than most seven-year-olds.
166
00:07:13,701 --> 00:07:16,236
It wasn't surprising
given his father's murder,
167
00:07:16,269 --> 00:07:18,171
but he really needed counseling.
168
00:07:18,205 --> 00:07:19,973
Didn't he get any counseling?
169
00:07:20,007 --> 00:07:21,141
Mom wouldn't consent.
170
00:07:21,174 --> 00:07:24,144
Said she could
help Adam herself.
171
00:07:24,177 --> 00:07:25,212
Fat chance.
172
00:07:25,245 --> 00:07:27,515
That woman was a fruitcake.
173
00:07:27,548 --> 00:07:28,982
How so?
174
00:07:29,016 --> 00:07:31,051
She had all these weird ideas
about food.
175
00:07:31,084 --> 00:07:32,720
Adam would come
to school hungry,
176
00:07:32,753 --> 00:07:34,855
but she wouldn't let him eat
school lunch.
177
00:07:34,888 --> 00:07:38,058
She claimed it was full of
pesticides and preservatives.
178
00:07:38,091 --> 00:07:41,662
So she packed nuts,
raw veggies, protein drinks.
179
00:07:41,695 --> 00:07:42,663
He eat that?
180
00:07:42,696 --> 00:07:44,498
Would any seven-year-old?
181
00:07:44,532 --> 00:07:45,465
( phone rings )
182
00:07:45,499 --> 00:07:47,535
Adam stole
other kids' food,
wolfed it down,
183
00:07:47,568 --> 00:07:49,637
then threw up
from eating too
much too fast.
184
00:07:49,670 --> 00:07:50,504
Stabler.
185
00:07:50,538 --> 00:07:52,740
Didn't you discuss this
with his mother?
186
00:07:52,773 --> 00:07:55,743
I kept making appointments,
but she never showed up.
187
00:07:55,776 --> 00:07:58,245
Finally I said if she wouldn't
meet with me,
188
00:07:58,278 --> 00:07:59,212
I'd report her for neglect.
189
00:07:59,246 --> 00:08:01,982
The next day,
she pulled Adam from school.
190
00:08:02,015 --> 00:08:05,919
It's Novak. She wants
to see us, now.
191
00:08:05,953 --> 00:08:07,788
Thank you.
192
00:08:10,323 --> 00:08:13,761
Are these the detectives
who've been harassing my client?
193
00:08:13,794 --> 00:08:16,664
Detectives Benson and Stabler,
meet Denise Brockmorton--
194
00:08:16,697 --> 00:08:19,132
legal counsel for the New York
Homeschool League.
195
00:08:19,166 --> 00:08:20,734
And attorney
for Marilyn Nesbit,
196
00:08:20,768 --> 00:08:22,135
whom you are persecuting
197
00:08:22,169 --> 00:08:24,271
solely because
she exercises her right
198
00:08:24,304 --> 00:08:26,940
to withdraw her children
from government schools.
199
00:08:26,974 --> 00:08:27,941
Nobody's being persecuted.
200
00:08:27,975 --> 00:08:29,643
We're just asking
a few questions.
201
00:08:29,677 --> 00:08:31,244
While you're holding
Jacob hostage.
202
00:08:31,278 --> 00:08:33,246
His mother wouldn't let us
in the door.
203
00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:34,615
We had to investigate.
204
00:08:34,648 --> 00:08:35,816
You mean go
on a witch hunt.
205
00:08:35,849 --> 00:08:37,217
The detectives
are merely trying
206
00:08:37,250 --> 00:08:39,052
to ensure that Jacob
is returned to a safe
207
00:08:39,086 --> 00:08:40,287
and healthy
home environment.
208
00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:41,689
Marilyn's a fine mother.
209
00:08:41,722 --> 00:08:43,557
The home is more than adequate.
210
00:08:43,591 --> 00:08:46,894
Prove it.
211
00:08:46,927 --> 00:08:48,629
Marilyn, I don't know
how you keep this place
212
00:08:48,662 --> 00:08:49,730
so neat with
two active boys.
213
00:08:49,763 --> 00:08:50,798
It's never been a problem.
214
00:08:50,831 --> 00:08:52,900
Where do the boys sleep?
215
00:08:52,933 --> 00:08:54,267
Right in here.
216
00:08:56,737 --> 00:08:57,705
STABLER:
Hey, Adam.
217
00:08:57,738 --> 00:08:58,706
Hello.
218
00:08:58,739 --> 00:09:00,307
What you working on, Adam?
219
00:09:00,340 --> 00:09:01,341
Trigonometry, ma'am.
220
00:09:01,374 --> 00:09:02,576
Excellent.
221
00:09:02,610 --> 00:09:03,777
Do you go online?
222
00:09:03,811 --> 00:09:05,312
Just educational sites.
223
00:09:05,345 --> 00:09:07,047
Do you got any hobbies?
224
00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:08,215
MARILYN:
Learning.
225
00:09:08,248 --> 00:09:10,818
That's their passion,
right, Adam?
226
00:09:10,851 --> 00:09:12,152
You mind showing us the kitchen?
227
00:09:12,185 --> 00:09:13,721
This way.
228
00:09:15,689 --> 00:09:16,824
What about exercise?
229
00:09:16,857 --> 00:09:18,592
Oh, we do morning
calisthenics.
230
00:09:18,626 --> 00:09:20,160
What, Sweating
to the Oldies?
231
00:09:20,193 --> 00:09:22,129
You have two
active kids here;
232
00:09:22,162 --> 00:09:23,163
that's not enough.
233
00:09:23,196 --> 00:09:25,332
The Homeschool League runs
a weekly athletic event
234
00:09:25,365 --> 00:09:27,835
in Central Park.
235
00:09:27,868 --> 00:09:29,903
Adam seems pretty small
for his age.
236
00:09:29,937 --> 00:09:31,071
I think he's
just perfect.
237
00:09:31,104 --> 00:09:33,941
STABLER:
So he gets enough
to eat?
238
00:09:33,974 --> 00:09:35,943
There's plenty of food.
239
00:09:35,976 --> 00:09:37,210
Healthy food.
240
00:09:37,244 --> 00:09:38,812
Why feed them
processed food
241
00:09:38,846 --> 00:09:41,281
that's full of chemicals
that cause cancer
242
00:09:41,314 --> 00:09:43,917
or beef that might have
that mad cow disease?
243
00:09:43,951 --> 00:09:45,886
Detectives, I think
that's enough.
244
00:09:45,919 --> 00:09:49,723
Unless a balanced diet
is a crime, we're done.
245
00:09:49,757 --> 00:09:51,358
Jacob's mother and her
mouthpiece want
246
00:09:51,391 --> 00:09:52,826
to take him home.
247
00:09:52,860 --> 00:09:54,027
We've got to let them.
248
00:09:54,061 --> 00:09:54,895
Who are you?
249
00:09:54,928 --> 00:09:56,363
Steve Krause,
social worker from ACS.
250
00:09:56,396 --> 00:09:57,798
We're not done investigating.
251
00:09:57,831 --> 00:09:59,700
Can't you put him
in a foster home
overnight?
252
00:09:59,733 --> 00:10:01,201
Not without a significant
statement
253
00:10:01,234 --> 00:10:02,770
about abuse from Jacob.
254
00:10:02,803 --> 00:10:05,238
Mr. Krause, you don't need
a statement. Turn around.
255
00:10:05,272 --> 00:10:07,641
That kid is terrified
of his mother.
256
00:10:07,675 --> 00:10:09,376
That's your interpretation.
257
00:10:09,409 --> 00:10:10,343
I spoke to Jacob.
258
00:10:10,377 --> 00:10:11,979
He told me
he wants to go home.
259
00:10:12,012 --> 00:10:13,413
Did he tell you
that he was hungry?
260
00:10:13,446 --> 00:10:14,848
Jacob's not malnourished.
261
00:10:14,882 --> 00:10:16,383
His mother uses
food to control him.
262
00:10:16,416 --> 00:10:18,719
A mother has a right
to her dietary beliefs,
263
00:10:18,752 --> 00:10:20,888
even the kids who'd rather eat
junk food,
264
00:10:20,921 --> 00:10:22,255
Just because she's different,
265
00:10:22,289 --> 00:10:24,391
doesn't mean that she's guilty
of abuse.
266
00:10:24,424 --> 00:10:25,292
Different.
267
00:10:25,325 --> 00:10:27,761
Sounds like
she's emotionally abusive.
268
00:10:27,795 --> 00:10:29,329
That's very hard to prove.
269
00:10:29,362 --> 00:10:33,033
Best I can do is recommend
family counseling.
270
00:10:33,066 --> 00:10:33,867
Is that it?
271
00:10:33,901 --> 00:10:36,870
I'll make a follow-up visit
tomorrow,
272
00:10:36,904 --> 00:10:39,339
but tonight,
Jacob has to go home.
273
00:10:42,275 --> 00:10:43,310
I don't like this.
274
00:10:43,343 --> 00:10:46,213
I'm telling you, that mother
is wound way too tight.
275
00:10:48,315 --> 00:10:51,685
This is my business card, okay?
276
00:10:51,719 --> 00:10:52,619
On the back
is my cell phone number.
277
00:10:52,652 --> 00:10:57,758
Call me anytime
if you need anything, okay?
278
00:10:57,791 --> 00:10:58,826
Thanks.
279
00:11:08,335 --> 00:11:10,838
Maybe we'll go out
and get some pancakes.
280
00:11:10,871 --> 00:11:12,305
If my mom says
it's okay.
281
00:11:12,339 --> 00:11:14,074
Let's go home.
282
00:11:16,376 --> 00:11:18,245
I'll see you
in the morning.
283
00:11:18,278 --> 00:11:19,246
What time?
284
00:11:19,279 --> 00:11:20,313
9:00 A.M.
285
00:11:20,347 --> 00:11:22,115
We'll be there.
286
00:11:24,384 --> 00:11:26,787
Dad! No cheating!
Who's cheating?
287
00:11:26,820 --> 00:11:29,122
Who are you calling
a cheater, huh?
288
00:11:29,156 --> 00:11:30,557
( growling )
289
00:11:30,590 --> 00:11:33,326
( laughing ):
Put me down, Dad.
( phone ringing )
290
00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:35,262
I'm going
to put you down.
291
00:11:35,295 --> 00:11:36,163
Kathy.
292
00:11:36,196 --> 00:11:39,466
Hey, why don't you go
get us some cookies?
293
00:11:39,499 --> 00:11:42,069
Hello?
294
00:11:43,804 --> 00:11:46,339
Jacob?
295
00:11:46,373 --> 00:11:48,308
Jacob, is that you?
296
00:11:48,341 --> 00:11:50,477
Is that the boy
from today?
297
00:11:50,510 --> 00:11:51,478
Yeah, I think so.
298
00:11:51,511 --> 00:11:53,747
Go.
299
00:12:04,892 --> 00:12:07,227
Mrs. Nesbit?
300
00:12:07,260 --> 00:12:08,762
It's Detective Stabler.
301
00:12:08,796 --> 00:12:09,797
Is anyone home?
302
00:12:29,850 --> 00:12:32,886
( sighs heavily )
303
00:12:37,991 --> 00:12:39,259
Single gunshot
to the temple.
304
00:12:39,292 --> 00:12:40,861
Stippling
around the wound.
305
00:12:40,894 --> 00:12:42,863
The gun was found
by Jacob's right hand.
306
00:12:42,896 --> 00:12:46,099
Suicide?
Not a chance in hell.
307
00:12:46,133 --> 00:12:47,801
The gun jammed
when someone tried
308
00:12:47,835 --> 00:12:49,102
to chamber the second round.
309
00:12:49,136 --> 00:12:50,804
Kind of tough to do that
310
00:12:50,838 --> 00:12:52,539
when you've already
shot yourself
in the head.
311
00:12:52,572 --> 00:12:54,041
When did this happen?
312
00:12:54,074 --> 00:12:55,542
M.E. says between
8:00 and 10:00 p.m.
313
00:12:55,575 --> 00:12:57,044
Jacob called me
at 9:07,
314
00:12:57,077 --> 00:12:58,545
so it happened
after that.
315
00:12:58,578 --> 00:13:00,047
Any word
from Marilyn or Adam?
316
00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:01,548
No. They're
in the wind.
317
00:13:01,581 --> 00:13:03,283
If Adam's not
already dead, too.
318
00:13:03,316 --> 00:13:05,886
Elliot, this
is not your fault.
319
00:13:05,919 --> 00:13:08,588
You didn't send
that boy home. ACS did.
320
00:13:08,621 --> 00:13:10,290
Screw ACS.
321
00:13:10,323 --> 00:13:12,292
I knew something was wrong.
322
00:13:12,325 --> 00:13:14,494
I watched that boy
walk out that door.
323
00:13:18,899 --> 00:13:20,600
Any idea where Marilyn Nesbit
might be headed?
324
00:13:20,633 --> 00:13:22,302
No friends, no
close relatives,
325
00:13:22,335 --> 00:13:23,603
no address book.
326
00:13:23,636 --> 00:13:25,305
Why kill one kid
and not the other?
327
00:13:25,338 --> 00:13:27,507
Abusive parents frequently
single out one child.
328
00:13:27,540 --> 00:13:28,909
Adam obeys her, Jacob doesn't.
329
00:13:28,942 --> 00:13:30,610
Maybe that's why
Adam gets enough to eat.
330
00:13:30,643 --> 00:13:32,312
Or maybe she did
try to kill Adam,
331
00:13:32,345 --> 00:13:33,847
but the gun jammed.
332
00:13:33,881 --> 00:13:34,848
So, what?
She's on the run,
333
00:13:34,882 --> 00:13:36,316
just dragging
this kid with her?
334
00:13:36,349 --> 00:13:37,851
Or maybe she's
already killed him,
335
00:13:37,885 --> 00:13:39,152
and she's out
dumping the body.
336
00:13:39,186 --> 00:13:40,988
What is her motive
for killing
her children?
337
00:13:41,021 --> 00:13:42,622
She destroys
the things she loves
338
00:13:42,655 --> 00:13:44,925
so that no one else
can take them from her.
339
00:13:44,958 --> 00:13:47,160
The archetype
is the Greek tragedy Medea.
340
00:13:47,194 --> 00:13:48,495
Medea. She
killed her kids
341
00:13:48,528 --> 00:13:49,863
to spite
their father.
342
00:13:49,897 --> 00:13:51,331
Yeah. Or, in this case,
to spite ACS.
343
00:13:51,364 --> 00:13:52,933
They were coming that morning.
344
00:13:52,966 --> 00:13:54,634
If Marilyn Nesbit
wouldn't have her children,
345
00:13:54,667 --> 00:13:56,003
no one would.
346
00:13:56,036 --> 00:13:57,871
I dumped the phones.
347
00:13:57,905 --> 00:13:59,606
Other than calls from
that shyster Brockmorton,
348
00:13:59,639 --> 00:14:01,341
Marilyn hasn't spoken
to anybody in days.
349
00:14:01,374 --> 00:14:03,443
And I got Marilyn's financials:
no income.
350
00:14:03,476 --> 00:14:06,046
She's been living off her
husband's life insurance.
351
00:14:06,079 --> 00:14:07,347
The money
is getting low.
352
00:14:07,380 --> 00:14:08,648
Any activity
on her credit cards?
353
00:14:08,681 --> 00:14:10,217
Still waiting
on the report.
354
00:14:10,250 --> 00:14:12,352
I got it flagged,
just in case she uses them.
355
00:14:12,385 --> 00:14:14,254
DMV's got a car
registered in her name.
356
00:14:14,287 --> 00:14:16,323
May not have to.
Well, get it out
on the teletype.
357
00:14:16,356 --> 00:14:18,258
That car comes standard
with Auto-Pilot.
358
00:14:18,291 --> 00:14:20,393
You know, you're lost,
you need directions,
359
00:14:20,427 --> 00:14:22,662
you push a button,
and it tells you
where to go.
360
00:14:22,695 --> 00:14:25,365
No kidding? How do
they track the car?
361
00:14:25,398 --> 00:14:27,200
Built-in GPS transponder.
362
00:14:27,234 --> 00:14:28,668
It sends out a signal.
363
00:14:28,701 --> 00:14:30,437
Thank God
for technology.
364
00:14:30,470 --> 00:14:32,505
Now we just got
to get Auto-Pilot
365
00:14:32,539 --> 00:14:34,041
to track Marilyn's car.
366
00:14:34,074 --> 00:14:36,576
Well, let's encourage them
with a court order.
367
00:14:39,412 --> 00:14:41,381
WOMAN:
Are you sure this is legal?
368
00:14:41,414 --> 00:14:43,683
BENSON:
Judge signed it.
You're in the clear.
369
00:14:43,716 --> 00:14:46,386
Give me the car's VIN number.
370
00:14:46,419 --> 00:14:52,059
2036613220.
371
00:14:52,092 --> 00:14:54,061
Got it. Right here.
372
00:14:54,094 --> 00:14:55,595
Car's not moving.
373
00:14:55,628 --> 00:14:57,931
Can you zoom
in on that?
374
00:14:57,965 --> 00:14:59,266
Sure.
375
00:15:02,002 --> 00:15:04,371
She's in the Bronx,
by the Westchester border.
376
00:15:04,404 --> 00:15:06,406
Cross streets
are East Drive
and River Road.
377
00:15:06,439 --> 00:15:07,574
Okay, can you call us
378
00:15:07,607 --> 00:15:09,242
if the car
starts moving again?
379
00:15:09,276 --> 00:15:11,078
Well, I can do better.
380
00:15:11,111 --> 00:15:12,946
Track her with this.
381
00:15:12,980 --> 00:15:14,948
I'll program in
her signal.
382
00:15:20,087 --> 00:15:22,722
Okay, turn right here.
383
00:15:22,755 --> 00:15:24,424
She hasn't moved yet.
384
00:15:24,457 --> 00:15:25,725
We're close.
385
00:15:25,758 --> 00:15:27,094
Westchester Mall.
386
00:15:27,127 --> 00:15:28,962
Great place to dump a car.
387
00:15:28,996 --> 00:15:30,964
Yeah. With a body
in the trunk.
388
00:15:32,432 --> 00:15:34,434
I don't see any blood.
389
00:15:34,467 --> 00:15:35,735
Empty.
390
00:15:35,768 --> 00:15:37,604
So where the hell
did they go?
391
00:15:37,637 --> 00:15:39,739
Maybe they came up here
to meet someone.
392
00:15:39,772 --> 00:15:41,741
Got no friends
or family.
393
00:15:41,774 --> 00:15:45,012
Only contact is with
that Homeschool League.
394
00:15:45,045 --> 00:15:46,446
That's it.
395
00:15:46,479 --> 00:15:47,747
John, it's Olivia.
396
00:15:47,780 --> 00:15:50,283
Call the Board
of Education.
397
00:15:50,317 --> 00:15:52,619
Find out if any other
homeschool families
398
00:15:52,652 --> 00:15:55,288
using the same curriculum
as Marilyn Nesbit
399
00:15:55,322 --> 00:15:58,458
live near Westchester Mall.
400
00:15:58,491 --> 00:16:00,994
Next house on the list
is Nancy Kester.
401
00:16:01,028 --> 00:16:02,762
Homeschools
her daughter Polly.
402
00:16:02,795 --> 00:16:04,464
How many we got left?
403
00:16:04,497 --> 00:16:06,166
Three more
after this.
404
00:16:07,334 --> 00:16:09,002
Can I help you?
405
00:16:09,036 --> 00:16:09,769
Yeah. Police.
406
00:16:09,802 --> 00:16:11,471
Do you know
a Marilyn Nesbit?
407
00:16:11,504 --> 00:16:12,772
Of course. Why?
408
00:16:12,805 --> 00:16:14,174
Have you talked
to her recently?
409
00:16:14,207 --> 00:16:16,143
Actually, I just
picked her up from the mall.
410
00:16:16,176 --> 00:16:17,477
She called me
when her car broke down.
411
00:16:17,510 --> 00:16:19,012
Do you know
where she is now?
412
00:16:19,046 --> 00:16:21,014
She's in the kitchen
baking cookies with the kids.
413
00:16:21,048 --> 00:16:22,149
What kids?
414
00:16:22,182 --> 00:16:23,483
Adam and my daughter.
415
00:16:23,516 --> 00:16:27,554
What's going on?
416
00:16:27,587 --> 00:16:28,621
Leave us alone.
417
00:16:28,655 --> 00:16:29,222
Marilyn,
just take it easy.
418
00:16:29,256 --> 00:16:30,557
Mom, who are these people?
419
00:16:30,590 --> 00:16:32,692
The police. Marilyn,
what happened?
420
00:16:32,725 --> 00:16:35,395
They want to take
my kids away from me!
421
00:16:35,428 --> 00:16:36,596
Step over here.
422
00:16:36,629 --> 00:16:38,398
Adam, I need you
to come with me.
423
00:16:38,431 --> 00:16:40,567
You can't take
my son! Go away!
424
00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:42,102
Let her go!
425
00:16:42,135 --> 00:16:43,436
Please come with me.
426
00:16:43,470 --> 00:16:44,737
I love you, Adam.
427
00:16:44,771 --> 00:16:47,274
Everything is going
to be fine.
428
00:16:47,307 --> 00:16:50,110
Don't say a word.
Be a man. Be a man.
429
00:16:50,143 --> 00:16:51,544
Marilyn Nesbit, you
are under arrest
430
00:16:51,578 --> 00:16:52,612
for the murder
of Jacob Nesbit.
431
00:16:52,645 --> 00:16:54,281
You have the right
to remain silent.
432
00:16:54,314 --> 00:16:56,183
Anything you say can and will be
used against you
433
00:16:56,216 --> 00:16:57,184
in a court of law.
434
00:16:57,217 --> 00:16:59,319
Why are
you doing this?
435
00:17:01,321 --> 00:17:03,656
My son is dead.
436
00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:09,629
Now you're
persecuting me.
437
00:17:09,662 --> 00:17:12,732
We're investigating a homicide.
438
00:17:12,765 --> 00:17:13,733
Kids play with guns.
439
00:17:13,766 --> 00:17:14,734
Accidents happen.
440
00:17:14,767 --> 00:17:16,469
And that boy
was murdered.
441
00:17:16,503 --> 00:17:17,737
You can't prove that.
442
00:17:17,770 --> 00:17:18,705
Sure, we can.
443
00:17:18,738 --> 00:17:21,608
Ballistics excludes
a self-inflicted injury.
444
00:17:21,641 --> 00:17:22,842
I'm sure they also told you
445
00:17:22,875 --> 00:17:24,511
my client's prints
weren't on the gun.
446
00:17:24,544 --> 00:17:25,712
Textured grip.
447
00:17:25,745 --> 00:17:27,647
They wouldn't be.
448
00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:29,649
What possible motive
did she have?
449
00:17:29,682 --> 00:17:31,651
Jacob called
Detective Stabler.
450
00:17:31,684 --> 00:17:34,121
He was about to open up
about his mom.
451
00:17:34,154 --> 00:17:36,723
I can't imagine
what he would
have told you.
452
00:17:36,756 --> 00:17:39,092
Marilyn has nothing to hide.
453
00:17:39,126 --> 00:17:41,294
Good. Where did she get the gun?
454
00:17:42,662 --> 00:17:45,698
I bought it for protection.
455
00:17:47,367 --> 00:17:51,671
Living alone in a house
with no man...
456
00:17:52,672 --> 00:17:54,641
I'm afraid.
457
00:17:54,674 --> 00:17:57,110
My client is aware
she broke the law
458
00:17:57,144 --> 00:17:58,811
by having an unlicensed handgun,
459
00:17:58,845 --> 00:18:00,713
and she'll take
full responsibility
460
00:18:00,747 --> 00:18:02,449
for her actions,
but she did not
461
00:18:02,482 --> 00:18:03,616
shoot her son.
462
00:18:03,650 --> 00:18:05,752
Then why did you run
when he got shot?
463
00:18:05,785 --> 00:18:07,754
How could you
just leave him there?
464
00:18:07,787 --> 00:18:10,257
I wasn't even there
when it happened.
465
00:18:10,290 --> 00:18:11,824
Where were you?
466
00:18:11,858 --> 00:18:13,193
At the store.
467
00:18:13,226 --> 00:18:15,228
When I came home, Jacob...
468
00:18:16,396 --> 00:18:20,700
was dead on the floor.
469
00:18:22,569 --> 00:18:24,271
Was Adam with you?
470
00:18:24,304 --> 00:18:28,675
No. He was home.
471
00:18:28,708 --> 00:18:30,377
Ask him.
472
00:18:30,410 --> 00:18:34,714
He was so frightened,
he could barely speak to me.
473
00:18:36,849 --> 00:18:38,551
Marilyn Nesbit was
at six different stores.
474
00:18:38,585 --> 00:18:39,719
Clerks remember her.
475
00:18:39,752 --> 00:18:41,388
She used a credit
card each time.
476
00:18:41,421 --> 00:18:43,556
Transactions cover the whole
range for time of death?
477
00:18:43,590 --> 00:18:46,559
Yeah. Some of the stores
even have her on videotape.
478
00:18:46,593 --> 00:18:48,861
So there's no way
that she shot Jacob?
479
00:18:48,895 --> 00:18:51,431
Liv, it could have
been an accident.
480
00:18:52,665 --> 00:18:53,900
How's my mom?
481
00:18:53,933 --> 00:18:55,335
She's fine.
482
00:18:55,368 --> 00:18:56,736
Can I see her?
483
00:18:56,769 --> 00:18:58,538
Not right now.
484
00:18:58,571 --> 00:18:59,706
Have a seat.
485
00:18:59,739 --> 00:19:01,741
She said that
we could talk with you.
486
00:19:01,774 --> 00:19:04,844
Adam, we know
that your mom wasn't home
487
00:19:04,877 --> 00:19:07,280
when your brother was shot.
488
00:19:07,314 --> 00:19:08,715
So now
it's up to you
489
00:19:08,748 --> 00:19:10,450
to tell us what
really happened.
490
00:19:11,751 --> 00:19:13,920
I don't want to talk about it.
491
00:19:13,953 --> 00:19:18,725
Your mom must have been
pretty mad when Jacob ran away.
492
00:19:18,758 --> 00:19:20,893
She still loved him.
493
00:19:20,927 --> 00:19:23,263
She loves me, too.
494
00:19:23,296 --> 00:19:26,399
Jacob told you
lies about mom.
495
00:19:26,433 --> 00:19:27,967
ACS was going
to take us away.
496
00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:29,669
That's not true.
497
00:19:29,702 --> 00:19:31,338
They just wanted
to check up on you guys.
498
00:19:31,371 --> 00:19:32,872
Make sure you and your brother
were safe.
499
00:19:32,905 --> 00:19:34,407
You're lying.
500
00:19:34,441 --> 00:19:36,509
They were going to put us
501
00:19:36,543 --> 00:19:38,511
in foster care.
502
00:19:38,545 --> 00:19:41,248
Do you know
what happens
to those kids?
503
00:19:41,281 --> 00:19:43,283
They get abused and molested.
504
00:19:43,316 --> 00:19:45,752
I can protect myself,
but Jacob can't.
505
00:19:45,785 --> 00:19:47,420
He's too little.
506
00:19:47,454 --> 00:19:50,457
But the gun would protect him.
507
00:19:50,490 --> 00:19:53,793
And that's why you
took your mom's gun--
508
00:19:53,826 --> 00:19:55,795
to protect
your brother.
509
00:19:58,531 --> 00:20:03,636
Adam, if it was an accident,
510
00:20:03,670 --> 00:20:06,773
then you're not going
to get in trouble,
511
00:20:06,806 --> 00:20:09,742
but you have to tell us
what happened.
512
00:20:12,845 --> 00:20:15,482
I took the gun from the closet.
513
00:20:15,515 --> 00:20:19,786
I told Jacob to shut his eyes,
and I shot him.
514
00:20:19,819 --> 00:20:22,355
He's in a better place.
515
00:20:35,935 --> 00:20:37,003
MAN:
Docket ending 0050
People v. Adam Nesbit.
516
00:20:38,705 --> 00:20:40,006
Murder in the 2nd Degree.
517
00:20:40,039 --> 00:20:41,941
JUDGE:
How does your
client plead?
518
00:20:41,974 --> 00:20:44,611
Not guilty, by reason
of mental disease or defect.
519
00:20:44,644 --> 00:20:46,613
Excuse me, ma'am,
but she's wrong.
520
00:20:46,646 --> 00:20:48,281
I did it. I'm guilty.
521
00:20:48,315 --> 00:20:49,416
Adam.
522
00:20:49,449 --> 00:20:51,451
JUDGE:
Miss Jameau, please
explain to your client
523
00:20:51,484 --> 00:20:54,354
that his statements
can be used against him.
524
00:20:54,387 --> 00:20:55,822
I shot my brother.
525
00:20:55,855 --> 00:20:58,291
I know I have
to go to jail.
526
00:20:58,325 --> 00:20:59,892
Your Honor, I ask that
Adam's remarks be stricken
527
00:20:59,926 --> 00:21:01,127
and a plea of not guilty
be entered.
528
00:21:01,160 --> 00:21:04,731
Your client just confessed to
murdering his brother again.
529
00:21:04,764 --> 00:21:06,899
Which shows that he is
clearly not competent
530
00:21:06,933 --> 00:21:07,900
to assist
in his own defense.
531
00:21:07,934 --> 00:21:09,936
The People will show Adam
knows right from wrong
532
00:21:09,969 --> 00:21:11,571
and should be allowed to enter
the plea of his choice.
533
00:21:11,604 --> 00:21:13,773
He's an emotionally
disturbed adolescent.
534
00:21:13,806 --> 00:21:15,074
He can't make that choice.
535
00:21:15,107 --> 00:21:16,075
JUDGE:
Enough.
536
00:21:16,108 --> 00:21:17,076
( gavel bangs )
537
00:21:17,109 --> 00:21:18,678
I'm ordering a 7:30 exam.
538
00:21:18,711 --> 00:21:22,715
Until the shrinks weigh in,
he's not guilty.
539
00:21:27,387 --> 00:21:28,755
So much bad stuff
happens to kids.
540
00:21:28,788 --> 00:21:31,090
They get kidnapped
and molested all the time.
541
00:21:31,123 --> 00:21:33,960
Oh. Is that why your
mom homeschools you?
542
00:21:33,993 --> 00:21:35,328
Yes.
543
00:21:35,362 --> 00:21:36,629
We learned so much
544
00:21:36,663 --> 00:21:39,065
and we don't have to be afraid
of getting hurt.
545
00:21:39,098 --> 00:21:41,033
Like at Columbine.
546
00:21:41,067 --> 00:21:43,870
Actually school shootings
are pretty rare, Adam.
547
00:21:43,903 --> 00:21:46,406
That's not
what my mom says.
548
00:21:46,439 --> 00:21:50,109
Plus, there's drugs
and gangs and bullies.
549
00:21:50,142 --> 00:21:53,112
What do you think?
550
00:21:53,145 --> 00:21:55,415
Same as my mom.
551
00:21:55,448 --> 00:21:58,918
Kids get hurt or killed
for no reason.
552
00:21:58,951 --> 00:22:01,754
Like your father?
553
00:22:01,788 --> 00:22:06,393
After he died, Mom wanted
to keep us safe,
554
00:22:06,426 --> 00:22:10,530
and we were...
till Jacob talked to the cops
555
00:22:10,563 --> 00:22:12,599
and the government
tried to take us away
556
00:22:12,632 --> 00:22:13,833
and put us in foster care.
557
00:22:13,866 --> 00:22:17,870
People were concerned about
what was going on in your home.
558
00:22:17,904 --> 00:22:20,907
Nothing was going on.
559
00:22:20,940 --> 00:22:25,011
Everything was fine until
Jacob messed it all up.
560
00:22:25,044 --> 00:22:28,415
So were you
mad at him?
561
00:22:28,448 --> 00:22:30,049
No.
562
00:22:30,082 --> 00:22:32,118
He's just a kid.
563
00:22:32,151 --> 00:22:34,387
He didn't know
what he was doing.
564
00:22:34,421 --> 00:22:38,425
Then why did you shoot him?
565
00:22:38,458 --> 00:22:42,995
To save him from something
horrible happening to him.
566
00:22:43,029 --> 00:22:46,999
Do you think killing
your brother was wrong?
567
00:22:47,033 --> 00:22:48,034
I broke God's law
568
00:22:48,067 --> 00:22:51,771
and I should be punished,
but I had to do it.
569
00:22:51,804 --> 00:22:54,807
Why did you
have to do it?
570
00:22:57,477 --> 00:22:59,446
Jacob is better off dead
571
00:22:59,479 --> 00:23:04,083
than being raped and abused
in some foster home.
572
00:23:04,116 --> 00:23:05,818
Adam's competent
to stand trial,
573
00:23:05,852 --> 00:23:08,488
but he's got some serious
emotional problems.
574
00:23:08,521 --> 00:23:09,856
Clinically he's paranoid.
575
00:23:09,889 --> 00:23:11,758
So Adam really did
kill Jacob to save him.
576
00:23:11,791 --> 00:23:13,693
Adam didn't think
he had any choice.
577
00:23:13,726 --> 00:23:16,663
It was the only
way to protect his
brother from harm.
578
00:23:16,696 --> 00:23:17,564
His mother
convinced him
579
00:23:17,597 --> 00:23:19,566
that danger lurks
around every corner
580
00:23:19,599 --> 00:23:21,568
and the only
safe place is home.
581
00:23:21,601 --> 00:23:23,470
You think Marilyn's
as guilty as Adam is?
582
00:23:23,503 --> 00:23:25,538
They convicted that
mom in Connecticut
583
00:23:25,572 --> 00:23:26,773
whose son hanged himself.
584
00:23:26,806 --> 00:23:29,041
She'd been told repeatedly
to get her son
585
00:23:29,075 --> 00:23:31,911
psychiatric treatment
long before his suicide.
586
00:23:31,944 --> 00:23:33,680
So was Marilyn.
587
00:23:33,713 --> 00:23:36,182
I think she's responsible
for Jacob's death.
588
00:23:36,215 --> 00:23:39,686
But Adam didn't commit suicide,
he killed his brother.
589
00:23:39,719 --> 00:23:41,688
He broke the law
and pled guilty.
590
00:23:41,721 --> 00:23:42,989
I can't ignore that.
591
00:23:43,022 --> 00:23:45,458
D.A.s cut deals with guilty
people all the time.
592
00:23:45,492 --> 00:23:47,426
What makes Adam any different?
593
00:23:50,497 --> 00:23:52,499
Thank you
for seeing me, Judge.
594
00:23:52,532 --> 00:23:54,233
Oh, Casey, stop
calling me Judge.
595
00:23:54,266 --> 00:23:56,202
I'm not on the
bench anymore.
596
00:23:56,235 --> 00:23:58,805
It's a habit from when
I used to clerk for you.
597
00:23:58,838 --> 00:24:01,974
And while we're having
drinks, call me Mary.
598
00:24:02,008 --> 00:24:03,209
What should I call you
599
00:24:03,242 --> 00:24:04,777
when I'm begging for advice?
600
00:24:04,811 --> 00:24:06,112
Brilliant.
601
00:24:06,145 --> 00:24:10,249
So, why did you go
into private practice?
602
00:24:10,282 --> 00:24:12,051
Three boys in college
603
00:24:12,084 --> 00:24:14,487
and an ex-husband whose
checks were always late.
604
00:24:14,521 --> 00:24:16,923
I could hardly get by
on a judge's salary.
605
00:24:16,956 --> 00:24:21,694
So, tell me about
the Nesbit case.
606
00:24:21,728 --> 00:24:24,230
Oh, the boy thought
he was doing the right thing
607
00:24:24,263 --> 00:24:25,598
when he shot his brother.
608
00:24:25,632 --> 00:24:27,600
He's willing to go
to jail for it.
609
00:24:27,634 --> 00:24:29,068
You don't know what to do.
610
00:24:29,101 --> 00:24:30,302
No.
611
00:24:30,336 --> 00:24:33,740
I don't think Adam Nesbit was
acting of his own volition.
612
00:24:33,773 --> 00:24:36,943
You mean you don't
want to indict him.
613
00:24:36,976 --> 00:24:39,612
I guess I don't.
614
00:24:39,646 --> 00:24:43,516
It's weird, I never
used to feel this way.
615
00:24:43,550 --> 00:24:45,284
It was simpler when
you did white collar.
616
00:24:45,317 --> 00:24:47,654
An executive embezzles,
the motive is greed,
617
00:24:47,687 --> 00:24:49,188
that's easy-- nail his ass.
618
00:24:49,221 --> 00:24:52,559
SVU cases aren't
nearly as clear.
619
00:24:52,592 --> 00:24:54,827
And this kid, he's like
a ventriloquist dummy.
620
00:24:54,861 --> 00:24:57,029
Whatever mom says, he says.
621
00:24:57,063 --> 00:25:00,299
Oh. So, mom's to blame.
622
00:25:00,332 --> 00:25:03,202
Are parent's responsible
for their children's actions?
623
00:25:03,235 --> 00:25:04,303
That's the question.
624
00:25:04,336 --> 00:25:06,739
I don't have the answer.
625
00:25:06,773 --> 00:25:07,740
Find it.
626
00:25:07,774 --> 00:25:09,008
And while
you're at it,
627
00:25:09,041 --> 00:25:11,277
figure out how you feel.
628
00:25:11,310 --> 00:25:14,781
Do you feel this boy
deserves to be charged?
629
00:25:14,814 --> 00:25:18,785
Do you feel the facts fit
the charge under the penal law?
630
00:25:18,818 --> 00:25:20,119
Did the boy have intent?
631
00:25:20,152 --> 00:25:22,855
I don't know what
he was thinking.
632
00:25:22,889 --> 00:25:24,591
Well, find out.
633
00:25:24,624 --> 00:25:25,825
And find out why
your defendant
634
00:25:25,858 --> 00:25:27,660
isn't rebelling
against his mother,
635
00:25:27,694 --> 00:25:29,862
like a normal teenage boy.
636
00:25:36,603 --> 00:25:37,704
Adam was always serious.
637
00:25:37,737 --> 00:25:39,572
A little intense
but very gentle.
638
00:25:39,606 --> 00:25:40,907
Certainly not violent.
639
00:25:40,940 --> 00:25:43,776
Did Adam ever talk to you
about his mother?
640
00:25:43,810 --> 00:25:44,977
Not really.
641
00:25:45,011 --> 00:25:46,145
Mom, can I go?
642
00:25:46,178 --> 00:25:48,581
I really need to
review my French.
643
00:25:48,615 --> 00:25:50,950
All the verbs
in section six.
644
00:25:50,983 --> 00:25:52,985
I'll drill you later.
645
00:25:55,254 --> 00:25:57,924
Polly is very confused
by what's happened.
646
00:25:57,957 --> 00:25:59,626
She's known Adam for years.
647
00:25:59,659 --> 00:26:01,260
Were they close?
648
00:26:01,293 --> 00:26:03,295
Well, she had
a crush on him.
649
00:26:03,329 --> 00:26:05,297
Marilyn noticed, didn't approve.
650
00:26:05,331 --> 00:26:07,099
They stopped visiting us
after that.
651
00:26:07,133 --> 00:26:09,669
Actually, I was surprised
when she called from the mall.
652
00:26:09,702 --> 00:26:11,203
She didn't want Adam
to have a girlfriend.
653
00:26:11,237 --> 00:26:13,673
She didn't want Adam
to have any friends.
654
00:26:13,706 --> 00:26:16,075
She kept those boys a little
close for my comfort.
655
00:26:16,108 --> 00:26:17,309
Made me wonder.
656
00:26:17,343 --> 00:26:19,145
About abuse?
657
00:26:19,178 --> 00:26:21,614
Nothing sexual.
658
00:26:21,648 --> 00:26:25,151
I just wondered if homeschooling
was healthy for her kids.
659
00:26:25,184 --> 00:26:26,152
Why?
660
00:26:26,185 --> 00:26:27,620
Well, some families
homeschool
661
00:26:27,654 --> 00:26:28,755
for religious reasons.
662
00:26:28,788 --> 00:26:32,324
Others, like us, we can't afford
private school tuition,
663
00:26:32,358 --> 00:26:35,728
but we don't like the chaotic,
overcrowded public schools.
664
00:26:35,762 --> 00:26:37,396
And Marilyn?
665
00:26:37,429 --> 00:26:41,400
She wanted to control
those boys completely.
666
00:26:41,433 --> 00:26:45,004
Maybe it was her way
of keeping them safe.
667
00:26:48,440 --> 00:26:50,209
Miss Novak!
668
00:26:50,242 --> 00:26:51,778
Yeah?
669
00:26:51,811 --> 00:26:54,714
I... think I'd better
give you these.
670
00:27:00,452 --> 00:27:02,388
"My mom keeps telling me
stuff that scares me.
671
00:27:02,421 --> 00:27:04,991
I want to run away,
but I can't leave Jacob."
672
00:27:05,024 --> 00:27:06,225
Those are my e-mails.
673
00:27:06,258 --> 00:27:07,827
Where did you get those?
674
00:27:07,860 --> 00:27:11,397
Polly Kester gave them to us.
675
00:27:11,430 --> 00:27:12,431
You can't tell my mom.
676
00:27:12,464 --> 00:27:14,033
I'm not supposed to do that.
677
00:27:14,066 --> 00:27:16,168
Miss Novak won't
tell your mom.
678
00:27:16,202 --> 00:27:17,970
She just wants to help you.
679
00:27:18,004 --> 00:27:19,205
It's none of her business.
680
00:27:19,238 --> 00:27:21,908
"Polly, do you think
there are things so bad,
681
00:27:21,941 --> 00:27:23,309
you'd be better off dead
682
00:27:23,342 --> 00:27:25,077
Stop!
than living through them?"
683
00:27:25,111 --> 00:27:26,145
Please, stop!
684
00:27:26,178 --> 00:27:27,947
"Polly, why haven't
you answered me?
685
00:27:27,980 --> 00:27:30,282
"My mom wants me
to do something.
686
00:27:30,316 --> 00:27:32,251
I don't know what to do."
687
00:27:32,284 --> 00:27:34,086
Adam, you wrote that
the night Jacob died.
688
00:27:34,120 --> 00:27:34,954
Make her go away.
689
00:27:34,987 --> 00:27:40,993
Adam, you have to
tell us what happened.
690
00:27:41,027 --> 00:27:43,162
What did your mom
want you to do?
691
00:27:43,195 --> 00:27:45,164
No, I won't talk about it.
692
00:27:45,197 --> 00:27:46,933
You wanted Polly
Nester's help.
It's too late!
693
00:27:46,966 --> 00:27:48,100
It's not.
694
00:27:48,134 --> 00:27:50,002
Yes, it is.
695
00:27:50,036 --> 00:27:52,972
I'm not supposed to be here.
696
00:27:53,005 --> 00:27:54,874
I should be dead.
697
00:27:59,511 --> 00:28:04,283
You shot Jacob, and you
tried to kill yourself...
698
00:28:04,316 --> 00:28:06,819
but the gun jammed.
699
00:28:06,853 --> 00:28:08,320
( sobbing quietly )
700
00:28:08,354 --> 00:28:09,722
( sniffles )
701
00:28:15,327 --> 00:28:17,797
That bitch is responsible,
but I can't touch her.
702
00:28:17,830 --> 00:28:20,332
The e-mails don't implicate
Marilyn in Jacob's death.
703
00:28:20,366 --> 00:28:24,270
She put crazy ideas in his head
that made him kill his brother.
704
00:28:24,303 --> 00:28:26,172
Yeah, but it's tough
to prosecute a parent
705
00:28:26,205 --> 00:28:28,340
for giving their kid warped
views on the world.
706
00:28:28,374 --> 00:28:29,575
Even if it cripples them.
707
00:28:29,608 --> 00:28:33,813
Bringing up Adam with paranoid
ideas isn't against the law.
708
00:28:33,846 --> 00:28:35,481
I mean you can raise
your kid to be a racist
709
00:28:35,514 --> 00:28:36,949
so long as
it doesn't cause harm.
710
00:28:36,983 --> 00:28:38,885
Well, there's your
difference right there.
711
00:28:38,918 --> 00:28:40,419
This is like vehicular homicide.
712
00:28:40,452 --> 00:28:43,756
Adam is the car, Marilyn
is behind that wheel.
713
00:28:43,790 --> 00:28:45,524
Her paranoia drove his actions.
714
00:28:45,557 --> 00:28:50,763
Can you charge Marilyn
with causing Jacob's murder?
715
00:28:50,797 --> 00:28:53,165
Her gun, her fears, her beliefs.
716
00:28:53,199 --> 00:28:55,768
I could argue Marilyn
facilitated the murder,
717
00:28:55,802 --> 00:28:57,536
but legally it's a long shot.
718
00:28:57,569 --> 00:28:59,772
So we've got
nothing to lose.
719
00:29:02,474 --> 00:29:04,777
If you have more questions,
call my attorney.
720
00:29:04,811 --> 00:29:05,945
Make an appointment.
721
00:29:05,978 --> 00:29:08,047
Call her yourself.
Have her meet you
down in arraignment.
722
00:29:08,080 --> 00:29:09,548
What is this?
723
00:29:09,581 --> 00:29:12,018
Marilyn Nesbit, you're under
arrest for criminal facilitation
724
00:29:12,051 --> 00:29:13,219
in the murder
of Jacob Nesbit.
725
00:29:13,252 --> 00:29:14,553
You have the right
to remain silent.
726
00:29:14,586 --> 00:29:17,389
Anything you say can
and will be used against
you in a court of law.
727
00:29:17,423 --> 00:29:18,891
You have the right
to an attorney...
728
00:29:23,395 --> 00:29:25,031
Who are you?
729
00:29:25,064 --> 00:29:26,833
I'm George Huang.
730
00:29:26,866 --> 00:29:29,068
I'm a psychiatrist.
731
00:29:29,101 --> 00:29:30,236
I evaluated Adam.
732
00:29:30,269 --> 00:29:31,503
Huh.
733
00:29:31,537 --> 00:29:33,840
You think he's crazy?
734
00:29:33,873 --> 00:29:35,574
Not crazy.
735
00:29:35,607 --> 00:29:38,845
Fearful.
736
00:29:38,878 --> 00:29:40,847
He's smart.
737
00:29:40,880 --> 00:29:43,549
He knows the danger
in this world.
738
00:29:43,582 --> 00:29:47,186
Because you taught
them to him.
739
00:29:47,219 --> 00:29:51,891
Look, I grew up without a home.
740
00:29:51,924 --> 00:29:54,493
No mother, no safety.
741
00:29:54,526 --> 00:29:59,165
I don't sugarcoat the truth.
742
00:29:59,198 --> 00:30:02,601
How did Jacob respond
to the truth?
743
00:30:02,634 --> 00:30:05,838
He thought I was
being unfair.
744
00:30:05,872 --> 00:30:08,207
But life isn't fair, is it?
745
00:30:08,240 --> 00:30:12,845
If it was, my husband would be
alive, my son would be alive.
746
00:30:12,879 --> 00:30:14,847
None of this would
have happened
747
00:30:14,881 --> 00:30:16,983
if Jacob had
listened to me.
748
00:30:17,016 --> 00:30:19,251
How did Jacob
disobey you?
749
00:30:19,285 --> 00:30:24,356
He would never accept
that I was right.
750
00:30:24,390 --> 00:30:26,292
Always right?
751
00:30:26,325 --> 00:30:28,995
About what was
right for him.
752
00:30:29,028 --> 00:30:30,629
I am his mother.
753
00:30:30,662 --> 00:30:34,533
Well, sometimes
even good parents make mistakes.
754
00:30:34,566 --> 00:30:37,036
Do you have any children?
755
00:30:37,069 --> 00:30:38,470
No, I don't.
756
00:30:38,504 --> 00:30:40,472
I didn't think so.
757
00:30:40,506 --> 00:30:42,942
You see, for me, you're
just a short little man
758
00:30:42,975 --> 00:30:44,310
with a nasty little mind.
759
00:30:44,343 --> 00:30:46,245
You're trying to
twist my words
760
00:30:46,278 --> 00:30:48,514
and get me
to say things.
761
00:30:48,547 --> 00:30:50,917
Think I'm stupid?
762
00:30:50,950 --> 00:30:53,052
And you're right, I am,
763
00:30:53,085 --> 00:30:56,655
for sitting here
and listening to you.
764
00:30:56,688 --> 00:31:00,559
Now, will you please
call my lawyer?
765
00:31:03,595 --> 00:31:06,398
What the hell was that?
766
00:31:07,699 --> 00:31:10,036
Marilyn's response to stress.
767
00:31:12,404 --> 00:31:14,206
How can she be
reading the paper
768
00:31:14,240 --> 00:31:15,607
as if nothing happened.
769
00:31:15,641 --> 00:31:18,544
Because she has a borderline
personality disorder.
770
00:31:18,577 --> 00:31:21,380
She compartmentalizes
the world.
771
00:31:21,413 --> 00:31:23,515
She's always right,
and anyone who challenges her
772
00:31:23,549 --> 00:31:24,984
is not only wrong
but her enemy.
773
00:31:25,017 --> 00:31:26,318
Including her children?
774
00:31:26,352 --> 00:31:27,219
Absolutely.
775
00:31:27,253 --> 00:31:29,521
Adam always obeyed her
and so he was good.
776
00:31:29,555 --> 00:31:31,490
Jacob didn't,
so that made him bad.
777
00:31:31,523 --> 00:31:33,292
So she doesn't
really love them.
778
00:31:33,325 --> 00:31:36,028
It's a twisted,
narcissistic kind of love.
779
00:31:36,062 --> 00:31:38,430
As soon as her kids show
any individuality,
780
00:31:38,464 --> 00:31:41,100
she perceives it as
rejection and an attack.
781
00:31:41,133 --> 00:31:42,534
What made her this way?
782
00:31:42,568 --> 00:31:44,971
Inadequate attachment
to her own mother,
783
00:31:45,004 --> 00:31:46,973
maybe she was abused herself.
784
00:31:47,006 --> 00:31:49,708
But her husband's murder
unleashed her paranoia.
785
00:31:49,741 --> 00:31:52,678
He gets killed,
so the outside
world's dangerous.
786
00:31:52,711 --> 00:31:55,014
Adam's teacher challenges
her parenting,
787
00:31:55,047 --> 00:31:56,515
so school's a bad place.
788
00:31:56,548 --> 00:31:58,985
Can you sell it to a jury?
789
00:31:59,018 --> 00:32:00,953
Let's see if a judge
buys it first.
790
00:32:02,321 --> 00:32:03,722
This is ludicrous,
Your Honor.
791
00:32:03,755 --> 00:32:06,092
My client in no
way facilitated
her son's murder.
792
00:32:06,125 --> 00:32:07,493
Adam Nesbit shot his brother
793
00:32:07,526 --> 00:32:09,996
because their mother told him
they'd be better off dead
794
00:32:10,029 --> 00:32:10,929
than in foster care.
795
00:32:10,963 --> 00:32:12,464
After making these
inflammatory comments,
796
00:32:12,498 --> 00:32:13,966
she left her
frightened children
797
00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:15,401
home alone with a loaded gun.
798
00:32:15,434 --> 00:32:17,536
What did she think
was going to happen?
799
00:32:17,569 --> 00:32:18,670
So your psychic now?
800
00:32:18,704 --> 00:32:20,039
You can read my client's mind?
801
00:32:20,072 --> 00:32:21,040
All I had to read
802
00:32:21,073 --> 00:32:22,208
were Adam's e-mails.
803
00:32:22,241 --> 00:32:24,276
"My mom wants me
to do something."
804
00:32:24,310 --> 00:32:27,013
But you had no idea what
Adam Nesbit meant by that.
805
00:32:27,046 --> 00:32:28,214
No, but Marilyn Nesbit
806
00:32:28,247 --> 00:32:29,481
made sure that Adam thinks
807
00:32:29,515 --> 00:32:31,050
only what she wants
him to think.
808
00:32:31,083 --> 00:32:33,352
Can't you see what's
going on here, Your Honor?
809
00:32:33,385 --> 00:32:35,087
The People are
persecuting my client
810
00:32:35,121 --> 00:32:37,289
because the government
doesn't approve
811
00:32:37,323 --> 00:32:38,757
of her choice
to homeschool.
812
00:32:38,790 --> 00:32:41,693
So this is a politically
motivated witch-hunt?
813
00:32:41,727 --> 00:32:43,529
If Adam went
to a government school
814
00:32:43,562 --> 00:32:45,297
and shot a fellow student there,
815
00:32:45,331 --> 00:32:47,399
would Ms. Novak be
charging his mother?
816
00:32:47,433 --> 00:32:50,602
The facilitation charge
is legally sufficient.
817
00:32:50,636 --> 00:32:53,472
We'll see what
the grand jury has to say.
818
00:32:53,505 --> 00:32:56,475
Cross one-90-50 notice.
819
00:32:56,508 --> 00:33:00,079
My client will testify
at the grand jury,
820
00:33:00,112 --> 00:33:03,749
and I'm sure they will find
a bereaved mother
821
00:33:03,782 --> 00:33:06,052
very sympathetic.
822
00:33:11,357 --> 00:33:13,159
Regarding last Tuesday,
Mrs. Nesbit,
823
00:33:13,192 --> 00:33:14,626
you've stated
you had no idea
824
00:33:14,660 --> 00:33:17,563
what Adam was planning to do
when you left the apartment
825
00:33:17,596 --> 00:33:18,797
the night of Jacob's death?
826
00:33:18,830 --> 00:33:20,666
Yes, ma'am.
827
00:33:20,699 --> 00:33:23,069
And where did you go?
828
00:33:23,102 --> 00:33:26,105
The grocery store...
829
00:33:26,138 --> 00:33:32,211
the pharmacy and, um,
a couple of other shops.
830
00:33:32,244 --> 00:33:33,579
The prescription you picked up
831
00:33:33,612 --> 00:33:35,547
wasn't due
to be refilled for another week.
832
00:33:35,581 --> 00:33:37,183
Mm-hmm.
833
00:33:37,216 --> 00:33:40,686
Jacob, uh... had
some stomach problems.
834
00:33:40,719 --> 00:33:44,090
I always like to have
a full supply
835
00:33:44,123 --> 00:33:46,725
of his medication on hand.
836
00:33:46,758 --> 00:33:49,228
Or perhaps you wanted
an airtight alibi.
837
00:33:49,261 --> 00:33:50,262
I'm just careful
838
00:33:50,296 --> 00:33:51,830
about my son's health.
839
00:33:51,863 --> 00:33:54,100
You were careful to stand
840
00:33:54,133 --> 00:33:56,068
underneath the video cameras
841
00:33:56,102 --> 00:33:59,438
and to pay with a credit card
for a five-dollar purchase.
842
00:33:59,471 --> 00:34:01,207
I know how you people work.
843
00:34:01,240 --> 00:34:05,177
If I had paid with cash and had
no record of buying his pills,
844
00:34:05,211 --> 00:34:07,713
you'd be charging me
with medical neglect.
845
00:34:07,746 --> 00:34:08,747
So everyone's
846
00:34:08,780 --> 00:34:10,749
out to get you, Mrs. Nesbit?
847
00:34:10,782 --> 00:34:11,850
I never said that.
848
00:34:11,883 --> 00:34:14,220
But it's clear,
849
00:34:14,253 --> 00:34:19,525
you don't approve of how
I'm raising my sons.
850
00:34:19,558 --> 00:34:21,527
We're here today
851
00:34:21,560 --> 00:34:24,163
in a matter of your son--
Jacob's death.
852
00:34:24,196 --> 00:34:25,564
Nothing more.
853
00:34:28,200 --> 00:34:32,171
You're trying to take my
children away from me.
854
00:34:32,204 --> 00:34:35,207
I know how you people are.
855
00:34:35,241 --> 00:34:40,246
Police, district attorneys,
DYFS...
856
00:34:43,515 --> 00:34:46,152
you destroy families!
857
00:34:49,888 --> 00:34:54,393
Be careful.
858
00:34:54,426 --> 00:34:59,165
If you don't live
your lives by their rules,
859
00:34:59,198 --> 00:35:01,167
they'll come after
your kids too.
860
00:35:06,538 --> 00:35:08,640
I got your 911.
What's the emergency?
861
00:35:08,674 --> 00:35:10,276
When Marilyn
was testifying,
862
00:35:10,309 --> 00:35:12,444
she was talking
about social services
863
00:35:12,478 --> 00:35:13,445
taking her kids away.
864
00:35:13,479 --> 00:35:16,248
But she didn't call them ACS;
she said DYFS.
865
00:35:16,282 --> 00:35:18,750
Division of Youth and Family
Services in New Jersey.
866
00:35:18,784 --> 00:35:21,687
Why is a New Yorker calling
ACS by an out-of-state name?
867
00:35:21,720 --> 00:35:22,821
Stall the grand jury.
868
00:35:22,854 --> 00:35:24,290
Let's take a road trip.
869
00:35:29,928 --> 00:35:32,364
There's no record
of a Marilyn Nesbit
in our system.
870
00:35:32,398 --> 00:35:34,266
Nothing on Adam
or Jacob Nesbit either.
871
00:35:34,300 --> 00:35:35,834
Maybe she used
a different name.
872
00:35:35,867 --> 00:35:37,636
Is there any other way
that you can check?
873
00:35:37,669 --> 00:35:38,937
You've got D.O.B.s
on the family?
874
00:35:38,970 --> 00:35:40,506
Right here.
875
00:35:40,539 --> 00:35:44,810
All right, let me try first
names and birth dates.
876
00:35:47,913 --> 00:35:49,348
Here's something.
877
00:35:49,381 --> 00:35:51,350
A Marilyn Chesterfield.
878
00:35:51,383 --> 00:35:53,785
Same D.O.B., with a son Adam,
879
00:35:53,819 --> 00:35:55,221
but no Jacob.
880
00:35:55,254 --> 00:35:57,323
What's the allegation?
881
00:35:57,356 --> 00:35:58,557
Happened back in 1995,
882
00:35:58,590 --> 00:36:00,192
so it's archived here.
883
00:36:00,226 --> 00:36:01,327
Give me a minute.
884
00:36:01,360 --> 00:36:02,328
It's got to be her.
885
00:36:02,361 --> 00:36:04,263
Adam was six, Jacob wouldn't
have been born yet.
886
00:36:04,296 --> 00:36:05,964
Okay, so why's Marilyn
using a different name?
887
00:36:05,997 --> 00:36:06,932
Here it is.
888
00:36:06,965 --> 00:36:09,901
Child came to school
with welts and bruises.
889
00:36:09,935 --> 00:36:11,537
States his mother beat him.
890
00:36:11,570 --> 00:36:13,972
Child afraid to go home.
Placement requested.
891
00:36:14,005 --> 00:36:15,407
She beat Adam.
892
00:36:15,441 --> 00:36:17,809
No, the child's name is Daniel.
893
00:36:17,843 --> 00:36:20,346
Who the hell is Daniel?
894
00:36:20,379 --> 00:36:21,413
An older son.
895
00:36:21,447 --> 00:36:25,351
Here, the narrative says
that the mother went back
896
00:36:25,384 --> 00:36:28,254
to her maiden name,
but her married name
897
00:36:28,287 --> 00:36:30,556
was Marilyn Chesterfield Nesbit.
898
00:36:34,360 --> 00:36:36,328
Mom was always a little crazy,
you know?
899
00:36:36,362 --> 00:36:37,363
With weird diets and stuff,
900
00:36:37,396 --> 00:36:39,831
but Dad kept her from going
off the deep end.
901
00:36:39,865 --> 00:36:43,802
When he got killed,
she just lost it.
902
00:36:43,835 --> 00:36:45,737
How old were you?
903
00:36:45,771 --> 00:36:46,772
Thirteen.
904
00:36:46,805 --> 00:36:48,840
Adam was, uh, six.
905
00:36:48,874 --> 00:36:52,278
Mom was pregnant with Jacob.
906
00:36:52,311 --> 00:36:54,346
I mean, she was pretty paranoid,
you know?
907
00:36:54,380 --> 00:36:55,981
She moved us out here to Jersey.
908
00:36:56,014 --> 00:36:57,816
She changed our name
to Chesterfield.
909
00:36:57,849 --> 00:36:59,485
She said that they would kill us
910
00:36:59,518 --> 00:37:01,287
if we stayed
in the city.
911
00:37:01,320 --> 00:37:03,389
How did you wind up
in foster care?
912
00:37:03,422 --> 00:37:06,224
When my dad got murdered...
913
00:37:07,926 --> 00:37:13,965
He went to that store because
I wanted milk for my cereal.
914
00:37:13,999 --> 00:37:18,304
My mother blamed me
for his death,
915
00:37:18,337 --> 00:37:20,306
so she started
beating the crap out of me.
916
00:37:20,339 --> 00:37:22,941
Finally, I couldn't take it
anymore and I told my teachers,
917
00:37:22,974 --> 00:37:25,611
and they said
that she'd get help
918
00:37:25,644 --> 00:37:27,713
and then I could go home.
919
00:37:27,746 --> 00:37:29,948
But you didn't?
920
00:37:29,981 --> 00:37:33,285
My mother never showed up
for family court.
921
00:37:33,319 --> 00:37:34,620
She disappeared.
922
00:37:34,653 --> 00:37:36,388
They couldn't find her.
923
00:37:36,422 --> 00:37:39,458
So I stayed in the system
until I was 18.
924
00:37:39,491 --> 00:37:41,059
Then I joined the Navy.
925
00:37:41,092 --> 00:37:43,862
I got out last year.
926
00:37:43,895 --> 00:37:45,831
You ever try
to contact your mother?
927
00:37:45,864 --> 00:37:46,932
I thought about it.
928
00:37:46,965 --> 00:37:49,801
I was mad at her
for a long time.
929
00:37:49,835 --> 00:37:53,939
But things got better
once I was away from her.
930
00:37:53,972 --> 00:37:55,574
Um, nobody hit me.
931
00:37:55,607 --> 00:37:57,075
My foster parents
are good people.
932
00:37:57,108 --> 00:37:58,610
And I thought
933
00:37:58,644 --> 00:38:00,546
I was just better off.
934
00:38:00,579 --> 00:38:01,980
What about Adam?
935
00:38:02,013 --> 00:38:03,649
She never hit him.
936
00:38:03,682 --> 00:38:06,418
I thought he would be fine.
937
00:38:06,452 --> 00:38:07,519
I...
938
00:38:10,889 --> 00:38:14,092
( voice breaking ):
I should have gone back.
939
00:38:14,125 --> 00:38:15,727
I could've stopped it.
940
00:38:15,761 --> 00:38:18,564
You didn't know.
941
00:38:18,597 --> 00:38:23,402
I left him there with her.
942
00:38:24,903 --> 00:38:28,039
Look, he needs you now.
943
00:38:37,649 --> 00:38:39,851
You're wasting
your time.
944
00:38:39,885 --> 00:38:42,421
I won't talk
about my mom.
945
00:38:42,454 --> 00:38:44,890
All you have
to do is listen.
946
00:38:44,923 --> 00:38:46,925
Hello, Adam.
947
00:38:53,432 --> 00:38:55,901
Who are you?
948
00:38:55,934 --> 00:38:58,537
I'm your brother.
949
00:38:58,570 --> 00:39:00,639
You can't be.
950
00:39:00,672 --> 00:39:02,941
Daniel's dead.
951
00:39:02,974 --> 00:39:04,510
He got killed in foster care.
952
00:39:04,543 --> 00:39:05,544
Mom told me all about it.
953
00:39:05,577 --> 00:39:06,945
She lied to you, Adam.
954
00:39:06,978 --> 00:39:09,147
She wouldn't do that!
955
00:39:09,180 --> 00:39:10,849
She loves me!
956
00:39:10,882 --> 00:39:13,419
I never stopped
thinking about you, Adam.
957
00:39:13,452 --> 00:39:15,020
I've always kept this.
958
00:39:15,053 --> 00:39:16,154
Remember?
959
00:39:16,187 --> 00:39:19,491
Remember, I taught you
how to ride a bike.
960
00:39:19,525 --> 00:39:20,692
You were so afraid
961
00:39:20,726 --> 00:39:23,962
you were going to fall...
962
00:39:23,995 --> 00:39:27,098
but I wouldn't let you.
963
00:39:29,200 --> 00:39:31,903
She lied about you.
964
00:39:34,205 --> 00:39:36,642
She lied about everything.
965
00:39:43,582 --> 00:39:46,818
She lied about the night
Jacob died, didn't she?
966
00:39:50,956 --> 00:39:53,592
Tell me what happened.
967
00:40:00,566 --> 00:40:03,535
When Mom brought
Jacob home,
968
00:40:03,569 --> 00:40:06,805
after he ran away,
she was so mad.
969
00:40:06,838 --> 00:40:10,442
She kept yelling that
we were going to foster care
970
00:40:10,476 --> 00:40:12,778
and that we were
going to be raped
971
00:40:12,811 --> 00:40:15,581
and beaten to death,
just like Daniel.
972
00:40:18,984 --> 00:40:23,955
She said if I was really brave,
I could stop it from happening.
973
00:40:25,924 --> 00:40:30,562
She went to her room
and came back with the gun.
974
00:40:30,596 --> 00:40:33,565
She said it was up to me.
975
00:40:33,599 --> 00:40:36,034
She said
that we wouldn't suffer
976
00:40:36,067 --> 00:40:38,904
and that we'd be
together in heaven.
977
00:40:38,937 --> 00:40:41,439
Dad and Daniel...
978
00:40:44,109 --> 00:40:46,478
I believed her...
979
00:40:52,618 --> 00:40:55,521
and I shot him.
980
00:40:58,657 --> 00:41:00,626
Oh, my God.
981
00:41:01,993 --> 00:41:03,862
What have I done?
982
00:41:03,895 --> 00:41:07,098
What did I...?
983
00:41:23,314 --> 00:41:25,283
Ms. Novak. You could have sent
the indictment to my office.
984
00:41:25,316 --> 00:41:26,685
Adam.
985
00:41:26,718 --> 00:41:29,621
Why did you tell me
all those lies, Mom?
986
00:41:29,655 --> 00:41:31,523
Why did you tell me
987
00:41:31,557 --> 00:41:34,159
to shoot Jacob?
988
00:41:34,192 --> 00:41:37,596
What have you done to my son?
989
00:41:37,629 --> 00:41:40,298
They told him the truth.
990
00:41:40,331 --> 00:41:42,033
Hello, Mom.
991
00:41:42,067 --> 00:41:44,269
ATTORNEY:
What the hell is
going on here?
992
00:41:44,302 --> 00:41:46,605
Ask your client.
993
00:41:46,638 --> 00:41:47,806
Marilyn?
994
00:41:47,839 --> 00:41:49,307
Who is this?
995
00:41:49,340 --> 00:41:51,577
It's a trick.
996
00:41:51,610 --> 00:41:53,612
It's her son, Daniel.
997
00:41:53,645 --> 00:41:55,747
Daniel's dead.
998
00:41:55,781 --> 00:41:58,016
Thanks to you,
my whole family is gone.
999
00:41:58,049 --> 00:41:59,017
And you're next.
1000
00:41:59,050 --> 00:42:00,318
You'll never be safe.
1001
00:42:00,351 --> 00:42:02,554
They'll kill you,
1002
00:42:02,588 --> 00:42:05,156
like they killed your father.
1003
00:42:05,190 --> 00:42:06,324
Don't listen to them.
1004
00:42:06,357 --> 00:42:08,293
Adam, I'm your mother!
1005
00:42:08,326 --> 00:42:10,228
I'm the only one
you can trust!
