NARRATOR:
In the criminal justice system,
2
00:00:03,404 --> 00:00:06,174
sexually based offenses are
considered especially heinous.
3
00:00:06,207 --> 00:00:08,342
In New York City,
the dedicated detectives
4
00:00:08,376 --> 00:00:10,344
who investigate
these vicious felonies
5
00:00:10,378 --> 00:00:11,679
are members of an elite squad
6
00:00:11,712 --> 00:00:13,514
known as
the Special Victims Unit.
7
00:00:13,547 --> 00:00:16,217
These are their stories.
8
00:00:18,686 --> 00:00:19,653
CHUNY:
What do we got?
9
00:00:19,687 --> 00:00:20,554
Six-year-old male.
10
00:00:20,588 --> 00:00:22,323
Stopped breathing
at a church service.
11
00:00:22,356 --> 00:00:24,325
No pulse. Gave him epi
and atropine.
12
00:00:24,358 --> 00:00:26,160
Oh, please.
The boy's dad.
13
00:00:26,194 --> 00:00:28,196
You wait here.
14
00:00:30,764 --> 00:00:32,566
Still no pulse.
Pupils fixed and dilated.
15
00:00:32,600 --> 00:00:33,834
Asystole.
16
00:00:33,867 --> 00:00:35,569
CHUNY:
Push vasopressin and
atropine. Scalpel.
17
00:00:37,805 --> 00:00:39,840
Oh, my God,
18
00:00:39,873 --> 00:00:41,842
what are you doing?
We're trying to
start his heart.
19
00:00:41,875 --> 00:00:43,611
Sir, you need
to wait outside.
No, no, no, no.
20
00:00:43,644 --> 00:00:44,678
Please let me stay
with him.
21
00:00:44,712 --> 00:00:46,214
Did he ingest anything:
poisons,
22
00:00:46,247 --> 00:00:47,581
detergents, drugs?
There was just-just
23
00:00:47,615 --> 00:00:48,682
a glass of
milk before bed.
24
00:00:48,716 --> 00:00:50,084
NURSE:
Vasopressin
and atropine
25
00:00:50,118 --> 00:00:51,552
on board--
still no pulse.
26
00:00:51,585 --> 00:00:52,620
How long's he been down?
27
00:00:52,653 --> 00:00:53,721
Nearly 30 minutes.
28
00:00:56,624 --> 00:00:59,460
You have to help him.
29
00:00:59,493 --> 00:01:01,129
I'm sorry.
30
00:01:01,162 --> 00:01:04,332
There's nothing more we can do.
31
00:01:07,768 --> 00:01:08,669
Paramedics were called
32
00:01:08,702 --> 00:01:10,671
to a service at the Church
of Divine Blessing
33
00:01:10,704 --> 00:01:12,140
just before midnight.
34
00:01:12,173 --> 00:01:14,475
A parishioner said
the kid had stopped breathing.
35
00:01:14,508 --> 00:01:16,477
We did everything we could
to resuscitate him,
36
00:01:16,510 --> 00:01:18,146
but he was DOA.
37
00:01:18,179 --> 00:01:19,713
His name's Jamie Semple.
38
00:01:19,747 --> 00:01:22,883
BENSON:
Did you notify the parents?
Yeah. Dad came in
39
00:01:22,916 --> 00:01:25,319
with the paramedics.
And what's the
cause of death?
40
00:01:25,353 --> 00:01:27,788
I have my suspicions,
but you'd better wait
for the autopsy.
41
00:01:27,821 --> 00:01:30,624
Why us?
Because I think
he was physically abused.
42
00:01:30,658 --> 00:01:33,661
There's these
indentations.
43
00:01:33,694 --> 00:01:36,664
Do you mind if
I take a look?
44
00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:41,635
Partial finger
impressions, and...
45
00:01:41,669 --> 00:01:43,704
is that a ring mark?
46
00:01:43,737 --> 00:01:46,340
Somebody really
squeezed this kid.
47
00:01:46,374 --> 00:01:47,908
Or crushed him.
Hold on. The
ring might have
48
00:01:47,941 --> 00:01:49,843
partial initials-- can
we use your camera?
49
00:01:51,412 --> 00:01:53,681
From the positioning
of the imprint,
50
00:01:53,714 --> 00:01:56,650
the ring...
is on the right ring finger.
51
00:01:56,684 --> 00:01:58,719
Where are the parents?
52
00:01:58,752 --> 00:02:00,721
They're in the waiting area.
They tell you
why they took
53
00:02:00,754 --> 00:02:02,523
their kid to church
in the middle of the night?
54
00:02:02,556 --> 00:02:03,524
Yeah.
55
00:02:03,557 --> 00:02:06,160
They were praying over him.

Mr. and Mrs. Dufoy?
59
00:03:01,315 --> 00:03:04,285
I'm Detective Benson,
this is Detective Tutuola.
60
00:03:04,318 --> 00:03:06,520
We are so sorry
about your loss.
61
00:03:06,554 --> 00:03:09,790
We need to ask you
a few questions.
62
00:03:10,824 --> 00:03:12,560
Can you tell us what happened?
63
00:03:12,593 --> 00:03:14,995
Um, I'm-I'm afraid
I don't know a lot.
64
00:03:15,028 --> 00:03:16,697
I-I was... I work late.
65
00:03:16,730 --> 00:03:19,533
Um, I run a bodega
up on 121st.
66
00:03:19,567 --> 00:03:22,703
Sam was home with Jamie.
67
00:03:22,736 --> 00:03:25,706
Well, he'd been wild,
real wild, all day,
68
00:03:25,739 --> 00:03:29,377
uh, just... throwing fits
like he was possessed.
69
00:03:29,410 --> 00:03:32,713
When he finally quieted down,
I took him to the church.
70
00:03:32,746 --> 00:03:33,881
I-I thought it might help
71
00:03:33,914 --> 00:03:35,849
if Father Hendry
prayed over him.
72
00:03:35,883 --> 00:03:37,518
What time was it?
73
00:03:38,552 --> 00:03:40,688
11:15, 11:30.
74
00:03:40,721 --> 00:03:43,324
And you were okay with this,
Mrs. Dufoy?
75
00:03:43,357 --> 00:03:46,727
Well, um... we're-we're
Jamie's foster parents.
76
00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:49,563
His birth mother
wanted church to be
part of his life,
77
00:03:49,597 --> 00:03:53,033
so... we-we try
to respect that.
78
00:03:53,066 --> 00:03:54,635
So, what went on last night?
79
00:03:54,668 --> 00:03:56,404
We were praying
with Father Hendry,
80
00:03:56,437 --> 00:03:59,740
and this lady
was holding Jamie's hand,
81
00:03:59,773 --> 00:04:04,878
and... suddenly,
she couldn't find a pulse.
82
00:04:04,912 --> 00:04:08,716
Jamie stopped breathing.
83
00:04:08,749 --> 00:04:12,586
We tried to wake him,
but we couldn't...
84
00:04:12,620 --> 00:04:15,356
May I please see
both of your right hands?
85
00:04:16,390 --> 00:04:17,691
Why?
86
00:04:18,726 --> 00:04:19,993
Please.
87
00:04:22,930 --> 00:04:25,399
Thank you.
88
00:04:25,433 --> 00:04:26,767
Where's the church?
89
00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:28,068
Um, 126th,
90
00:04:28,101 --> 00:04:29,903
off Lennox.
91
00:04:29,937 --> 00:04:31,305
Okay.
92
00:04:31,339 --> 00:04:33,407
If you think of anything else,
93
00:04:33,441 --> 00:04:36,810
please call us, okay?
94
00:04:40,814 --> 00:04:41,915
God, it's 4:45.
95
00:04:41,949 --> 00:04:43,784
I've got to be in
court in five hours.
96
00:04:43,817 --> 00:04:45,085
Okay, you go ahead.
97
00:04:45,118 --> 00:04:47,621
About time Munch got
his bony ass out of bed
98
00:04:47,655 --> 00:04:49,457
for some religion.
99
00:04:49,490 --> 00:04:51,492
Thanks.
100
00:04:53,827 --> 00:04:56,797
Jamie and his father
found comfort
101
00:04:56,830 --> 00:04:59,467
and healing here
on many occasions.
102
00:04:59,500 --> 00:05:01,101
Ask my brothers
and sisters.
103
00:05:01,134 --> 00:05:03,804
Why'd Jamie need healing?
He had demons.
104
00:05:03,837 --> 00:05:06,340
He'd have fits:
105
00:05:06,374 --> 00:05:07,875
hurl himself to the ground,
106
00:05:07,908 --> 00:05:08,842
froth at the mouth,
107
00:05:08,876 --> 00:05:10,778
shout, swear,
108
00:05:10,811 --> 00:05:11,779
bang his head.
109
00:05:11,812 --> 00:05:13,947
And this was
the devil's work?
110
00:05:13,981 --> 00:05:16,083
Medicine couldn't heal Jamie.
Our prayers could.
111
00:05:16,116 --> 00:05:16,884
Then why is he dead?
112
00:05:16,917 --> 00:05:19,753
Excuse me, ma'am,
and you are...?
113
00:05:19,787 --> 00:05:23,791
Mariel Plummer, ACS;
Jamie's case worker.
114
00:05:23,824 --> 00:05:24,925
I just came
from the hospital.
115
00:05:24,958 --> 00:05:26,794
I spoke to Lori-Ann
and Sam.
116
00:05:26,827 --> 00:05:29,763
I just can't believe
this has happened.
117
00:05:29,797 --> 00:05:31,865
Jamie's in a
better place now.
The only better place
118
00:05:31,899 --> 00:05:34,768
Jamie could be is at home
with his parents!
119
00:05:34,802 --> 00:05:38,906
I'm... sorry.
This is just really upsetting.
120
00:05:38,939 --> 00:05:40,808
Ms. Plummer,
in your professional opinion,
121
00:05:40,841 --> 00:05:43,076
was Jamie possessed
by the devil?
122
00:05:43,110 --> 00:05:47,114
Jamie had ADHD with conduct
disorder and epilepsy.
123
00:05:47,147 --> 00:05:51,685
You don't believe me,
speak to his doctor.
124
00:05:51,719 --> 00:05:53,654
DOCTOR:
I worked with Jamie
for nearly a year.
125
00:05:53,687 --> 00:05:55,122
He could be a
real handful.
126
00:05:55,155 --> 00:05:56,957
When a child has
both a behavioral
127
00:05:56,990 --> 00:05:59,527
and an organic
disorder,
128
00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:01,995
one exacerbates
the other.
What did you do for Jamie?
129
00:06:02,029 --> 00:06:03,564
Gave him medication
for epilepsy
130
00:06:03,597 --> 00:06:04,798
and therapy for the ADHD.
131
00:06:04,832 --> 00:06:06,066
He was steadily improving.
132
00:06:06,099 --> 00:06:08,502
He could be
a sweet kid:
133
00:06:08,536 --> 00:06:10,771
funny, loving,
inventive...
134
00:06:10,804 --> 00:06:12,840
I can't believe he's dead.
135
00:06:12,873 --> 00:06:14,875
Isn't that Mariel Plummer?
136
00:06:14,908 --> 00:06:16,143
DOCTOR:
Yes. Jamie's
case worker.
137
00:06:16,176 --> 00:06:17,811
She's great with kids.
138
00:06:17,845 --> 00:06:20,848
He was quite
fond of her.
139
00:06:20,881 --> 00:06:22,650
I felt we had
the behavioral problems
140
00:06:22,683 --> 00:06:24,518
under control,
but there was always a chance
141
00:06:24,552 --> 00:06:25,819
that he could have
another seizure.
142
00:06:25,853 --> 00:06:27,521
FIN:
Could he die
from that?
143
00:06:27,555 --> 00:06:28,989
There is a rare syndrome
144
00:06:29,022 --> 00:06:31,492
called Sudden Unexpected Death
in Epilepsy.
145
00:06:31,525 --> 00:06:33,827
How does that happen?
146
00:06:33,861 --> 00:06:35,896
Not taking one's meds
or mixing them.
147
00:06:35,929 --> 00:06:38,198
Do Jamie's foster parents
know how to medicate him?
148
00:06:38,231 --> 00:06:40,534
Yes, and how to care for him
during a seizure...
149
00:06:40,568 --> 00:06:41,869
but in the last few months,
150
00:06:41,902 --> 00:06:44,705
they'd started looking
for answers elsewhere.
151
00:06:44,738 --> 00:06:47,107
Like at the Church
of Divine Blessing.
Yeah.
152
00:06:47,140 --> 00:06:51,178
Sam Dufoy insisted
that it was good for Jamie.
153
00:06:51,211 --> 00:06:55,716
A month ago, I told them either
leave the church or leave me,
154
00:06:55,749 --> 00:06:57,851
because I couldn't take
responsibility
155
00:06:57,885 --> 00:06:59,720
for Jamie's health.
156
00:06:59,753 --> 00:07:03,657
They chose the church.
157
00:07:03,691 --> 00:07:05,158
According to Doc Engels,
cause of death
158
00:07:05,192 --> 00:07:06,694
could be an epileptic seizure.
159
00:07:06,727 --> 00:07:07,928
You ask me,
that kid is dead
160
00:07:07,961 --> 00:07:09,863
because his parents
didn't give him his meds,
161
00:07:09,897 --> 00:07:11,699
and then dragged him off
to a faith healer.
162
00:07:11,732 --> 00:07:12,766
That's the lure
of faith healing.
163
00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:14,968
Medicine doesn't give them
the answer they want,
164
00:07:15,002 --> 00:07:16,203
so they turn to God.
165
00:07:16,236 --> 00:07:18,205
Doc said Jamie
was getting better.
166
00:07:18,238 --> 00:07:21,041
He's got epilepsy--
he'll always be epileptic.
167
00:07:21,074 --> 00:07:23,210
Medicine can only
treat the condition.
168
00:07:23,243 --> 00:07:25,212
Father Hendry can
promise them a cure.
169
00:07:25,245 --> 00:07:26,580
But he can't deliver.
170
00:07:26,614 --> 00:07:28,582
Then he says
it's the Lord's will.
171
00:07:28,616 --> 00:07:31,218
Yeah, or maybe Sam and
Lori-Ann didn't pray
hard enough.
172
00:07:31,251 --> 00:07:34,054
I got the feeling that Lori-Ann
didn't approve of it.
173
00:07:34,087 --> 00:07:35,889
She doesn't belong
to that church.
174
00:07:35,923 --> 00:07:37,224
Even if Jamie was having
a seizure,
175
00:07:37,257 --> 00:07:39,026
and his dad took him
for a prayer session,
176
00:07:39,059 --> 00:07:41,028
it doesn't account for
the mark on Jamie's chest.
177
00:07:41,061 --> 00:07:43,063
Depends on what kind
of prayer session
you're talking about.
178
00:07:43,096 --> 00:07:45,766
That autistic kid
who died in the
Milwaukee church--
179
00:07:45,799 --> 00:07:47,601
the parishioners
held him down.
180
00:07:47,635 --> 00:07:49,236
They were laying on
top of him to cure him.
181
00:07:49,269 --> 00:07:51,772
That would explain
the ring mark.
182
00:07:51,805 --> 00:07:53,907
Right? Somebody holds
onto Jamie, he struggles,
183
00:07:53,941 --> 00:07:55,242
and they hold
onto him tighter.
184
00:07:55,275 --> 00:07:56,944
Until he stops breathing.
185
00:07:56,977 --> 00:07:58,612
Thank you. I enjoyed that.
186
00:07:58,646 --> 00:08:00,681
Now, have we tracked down
his birth mother yet?
187
00:08:00,714 --> 00:08:01,682
MUNCH:
Social worker says
188
00:08:01,715 --> 00:08:02,816
she moved to Long Island.
189
00:08:02,850 --> 00:08:04,518
I made a call.
The phone's disconnected.
190
00:08:04,552 --> 00:08:06,554
I also did a little homework
on Father Hendry.
191
00:08:06,587 --> 00:08:08,756
He used to be minister
of the Sacred Spirit Church,
192
00:08:08,789 --> 00:08:11,258
but left over
"religious
differences."
193
00:08:11,291 --> 00:08:15,228
Okay. Liv, Elliot,
you got trial prep.
194
00:08:15,262 --> 00:08:17,197
John, Fin, pay a visit
195
00:08:17,230 --> 00:08:19,099
to Sacred Spirit Church--
let's see how
196
00:08:19,132 --> 00:08:21,669
"different"
Father Hendry's religion was.
197
00:08:23,270 --> 00:08:24,972
Lucas Hendry was with us
for many years.
198
00:08:25,005 --> 00:08:26,540
He was a popular preacher.
199
00:08:26,574 --> 00:08:27,575
Why'd he leave?
200
00:08:27,608 --> 00:08:30,778
He was drawn to a more
charismatic form of worship.
201
00:08:30,811 --> 00:08:33,747
He felt people needed
more drama in their faith.
202
00:08:33,781 --> 00:08:34,982
Have you heard of
the Toronto Blessing?
203
00:08:35,015 --> 00:08:36,116
Nope.
204
00:08:36,149 --> 00:08:37,284
It started in the '90s,
205
00:08:37,317 --> 00:08:38,986
in a church near
Toronto Airport.
206
00:08:39,019 --> 00:08:40,320
Practitioners claimed
207
00:08:40,353 --> 00:08:43,023
they could cast out demons,
heal the sick,
208
00:08:43,056 --> 00:08:44,124
speak in tongues.
209
00:08:44,157 --> 00:08:47,561
Hendry and some of our members
were seduced by it.
210
00:08:47,595 --> 00:08:49,029
Like Sam and
Lori-Ann Dufoy?
211
00:08:49,062 --> 00:08:50,664
Sam was.
He and Lori-Ann
212
00:08:50,698 --> 00:08:52,600
are good people.
We were sorry to see them go.
213
00:08:52,633 --> 00:08:53,901
FIN:
You think
Father Hendry's
214
00:08:53,934 --> 00:08:54,768
a fraud?
215
00:08:54,802 --> 00:08:57,304
He doesn't hold rattlesnakes
in one hand
216
00:08:57,337 --> 00:08:58,839
and the collection box
in the other,
217
00:08:58,872 --> 00:09:00,007
if that's what you mean.
218
00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:02,109
He may be deluded,
but he's sincere.
219
00:09:04,645 --> 00:09:06,213
Does Reverend Hendry
always wear this ring?
220
00:09:06,246 --> 00:09:08,782
Yes. It was
his grandfather's.
221
00:09:10,150 --> 00:09:12,052
This mark
was on Jamie's body.
222
00:09:12,085 --> 00:09:14,121
See the partial initials:
J.O.?
223
00:09:14,154 --> 00:09:17,124
Well, my initials are L.H.
224
00:09:17,157 --> 00:09:18,025
FIN:
But it's your ring.
225
00:09:18,058 --> 00:09:19,827
The initials belong
to your grandaddy,
226
00:09:19,860 --> 00:09:20,994
Jackson Ormond.
227
00:09:21,028 --> 00:09:22,630
MUNCH:
Where's the
ring, Father?
228
00:09:22,663 --> 00:09:24,031
I don't wear it anymore.
229
00:09:24,064 --> 00:09:25,265
We talked to the people
that prayed for
230
00:09:25,298 --> 00:09:27,868
Jamie that night-- they said
you were calling to the Lord,
231
00:09:27,901 --> 00:09:28,902
battling with Satan.
232
00:09:28,936 --> 00:09:31,672
His demons were powerful.
I had to fight them.
233
00:09:31,705 --> 00:09:32,973
You held him
so tight
234
00:09:33,006 --> 00:09:35,008
that the ring left
an impression on his flesh.
235
00:09:35,042 --> 00:09:36,677
I was healing him!
236
00:09:36,710 --> 00:09:38,111
You crushed the life
out of him!
No!
237
00:09:38,145 --> 00:09:39,647
You killed him!
238
00:09:45,919 --> 00:09:48,756
God forgive me.
239
00:09:48,789 --> 00:09:51,992
I was only trying to help
the boy.
240
00:09:53,060 --> 00:09:56,830
I-I-I must've held him
too tight.
241
00:09:56,864 --> 00:10:00,100
I... I saw the mark
my ring had made--
242
00:10:00,133 --> 00:10:02,335
I took it off.
243
00:10:02,369 --> 00:10:04,772
I'm so sorry.
244
00:10:07,875 --> 00:10:09,142
About to take him
245
00:10:09,176 --> 00:10:11,344
to Booking.
Put him in the cage.
246
00:10:11,378 --> 00:10:14,014
I think you better
talk to Warner first.
247
00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:22,222
WARNER:
We've got microscopic
cotton fibers.
248
00:10:22,255 --> 00:10:24,191
I found them
in Jamie's lungs and stomach.
249
00:10:24,224 --> 00:10:25,893
Along with these--
250
00:10:25,926 --> 00:10:28,996
traces of toluene
diisocyanate polyol
251
00:10:29,029 --> 00:10:31,331
and pentabromodiphenyl oxide.
252
00:10:31,364 --> 00:10:34,367
Your basic foam rubber
and fire retardant.
253
00:10:34,401 --> 00:10:36,704
So he was smothered
with a cushion?
254
00:10:36,737 --> 00:10:37,705
Or a cheap pillow.
255
00:10:37,738 --> 00:10:40,107
Okay, somebody holds
a pillow over Jamie's face.
256
00:10:40,140 --> 00:10:42,375
The kid fights and bites
right through the case
257
00:10:42,409 --> 00:10:43,343
into the foam.
258
00:10:43,376 --> 00:10:45,779
Yeah, but the parishioners
didn't say anything
259
00:10:45,813 --> 00:10:46,880
about a pillow.
260
00:10:46,914 --> 00:10:48,749
That's because Jamie wasn't
smothered at the church.
261
00:10:48,782 --> 00:10:49,683
How do you know that?
262
00:10:49,717 --> 00:10:53,787
See how clear and deep
the impression is?
263
00:10:53,821 --> 00:10:55,455
That wouldn't have happened
with living skin.
264
00:10:55,488 --> 00:10:58,358
His flesh had started
to swell and become waxy.
265
00:10:58,391 --> 00:11:00,994
Jamie was already dead.
266
00:11:01,028 --> 00:11:04,164
At least an hour
before this mark was made.
267
00:11:08,902 --> 00:11:09,937
You know, I don't know
what you think
268
00:11:09,970 --> 00:11:10,938
you're going to find here.
269
00:11:10,971 --> 00:11:12,005
MUNCH:
We'll let you know
270
00:11:12,039 --> 00:11:13,106
as soon as we find it.
271
00:11:13,140 --> 00:11:14,441
Pillowcase is clean,
no tears.
272
00:11:14,474 --> 00:11:16,243
When's your husband
coming back?
273
00:11:16,276 --> 00:11:17,244
Soon.
274
00:11:17,277 --> 00:11:20,013
He's out making
Jamie's funeral arrangements.
275
00:11:20,047 --> 00:11:21,148
Look like teeth marks.
276
00:11:21,181 --> 00:11:23,483
Mm-hmm. Check this out.
277
00:11:23,516 --> 00:11:25,152
Blood?
278
00:11:25,185 --> 00:11:26,286
LORI-ANN:
No, it couldn't be.
279
00:11:26,319 --> 00:11:29,923
Jamie must've spilled
his chocolate milk or something.
280
00:11:29,957 --> 00:11:32,492
Look, do you really think
we would hurt him?
281
00:11:32,525 --> 00:11:33,827
He was like
our own son.
282
00:11:33,861 --> 00:11:35,162
We need to get this
to the lab.
283
00:11:35,195 --> 00:11:36,329
See if they can ID it.
284
00:11:37,765 --> 00:11:40,233
Pillowcase.
Found it in the trash.
285
00:11:40,267 --> 00:11:42,035
Tear marks.
286
00:11:42,069 --> 00:11:45,005
Check it against
the bite marks on that.
287
00:11:51,111 --> 00:11:52,846
What's going on?
288
00:11:54,247 --> 00:11:56,416
Perfect match.
289
00:11:56,449 --> 00:11:59,319
We just found
your murder weapon.
290
00:12:09,429 --> 00:12:11,064
Jamie was sleeping
when I took him to the church.
291
00:12:11,098 --> 00:12:13,233
He was already dead
when he got there, Sam.
292
00:12:13,266 --> 00:12:14,534
No, no. After one of his fits,
293
00:12:14,567 --> 00:12:17,137
it's like he's in a coma,
but he always wakes up.
294
00:12:17,170 --> 00:12:17,971
He couldn't wake up.
295
00:12:18,005 --> 00:12:22,776
He'd been suffocated
with a pillow.
296
00:12:22,810 --> 00:12:25,012
That's impossible.
297
00:12:25,045 --> 00:12:26,279
I'd never hurt Jamie.
298
00:12:26,313 --> 00:12:28,315
Then why are there bite marks
on his pillow and pillowcase?
299
00:12:28,348 --> 00:12:30,984
Because Jamie is an epileptic.
300
00:12:31,018 --> 00:12:33,086
When he's having a seizure,
he goes crazy.
301
00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:35,322
He'll bite anything
within reach.
302
00:12:35,355 --> 00:12:36,556
MUNCH:
That doesn't explain
303
00:12:36,589 --> 00:12:39,259
the fragments
of foam and fiber
in his lungs.
304
00:12:39,292 --> 00:12:41,061
I don't believe you.
305
00:12:41,094 --> 00:12:42,395
FIN:
What do you think
these are?
306
00:12:42,429 --> 00:12:45,298
That pillow
was pressed so hard
against Jamie's face
307
00:12:45,332 --> 00:12:47,234
he inhaled this stuff.
308
00:12:47,901 --> 00:12:49,369
No!
309
00:12:49,402 --> 00:12:51,338
Come on, Sam.
The kid was running wild,
310
00:12:51,371 --> 00:12:53,373
you were at the end
of your rope.
311
00:12:53,406 --> 00:12:54,341
You put that pillow
over his face,
312
00:12:54,374 --> 00:12:56,243
and you held it there
till he stopped moving.
313
00:12:56,276 --> 00:12:57,244
Stop!
314
00:12:57,277 --> 00:12:59,546
( sobbing )
315
00:12:59,579 --> 00:13:01,982
I loved Jamie.
316
00:13:02,015 --> 00:13:02,983
No, you killed him.
317
00:13:03,016 --> 00:13:05,418
Then you took him
to the church to cover it up.
318
00:13:05,452 --> 00:13:06,553
No. I know my husband.
319
00:13:06,586 --> 00:13:08,455
He would never do anything
like this.
320
00:13:08,488 --> 00:13:09,823
We dumped your phone.
321
00:13:09,857 --> 00:13:11,591
Sam called you at your store
at 11:00. Why?
322
00:13:11,624 --> 00:13:13,593
He said Jamie
was out of control.
323
00:13:13,626 --> 00:13:14,594
Did you go home?
324
00:13:14,627 --> 00:13:15,595
I couldn't.
325
00:13:15,628 --> 00:13:16,596
I had customers.
326
00:13:16,629 --> 00:13:18,198
I told Sam to stay calm.
327
00:13:18,231 --> 00:13:20,300
That I would be there
as soon as I could.
328
00:13:20,333 --> 00:13:21,234
FIN:
Let it out, Sam.
329
00:13:21,268 --> 00:13:24,404
You'll feel better.
330
00:13:24,437 --> 00:13:28,175
( sobbing ):
I just wanted him to sleep.
331
00:13:28,208 --> 00:13:31,511
Just be still for a while.
332
00:13:31,544 --> 00:13:34,247
But then he stopped moving!
333
00:13:34,281 --> 00:13:36,316
So you took him
to the priest.
334
00:13:36,349 --> 00:13:38,618
Father Hendry woke him up
before.
335
00:13:38,651 --> 00:13:40,387
I thought
he could do it again.
336
00:13:40,420 --> 00:13:42,422
Sam, don't say anything else.
337
00:13:42,455 --> 00:13:43,857
We're getting a lawyer.
338
00:13:44,457 --> 00:13:46,493
Baby...
339
00:13:46,526 --> 00:13:49,296
I tried so hard
not to hurt him.
340
00:13:49,329 --> 00:13:50,931
I'm sorry!
341
00:13:50,964 --> 00:13:54,401
Oh, God, I'm sorry!
342
00:13:55,068 --> 00:13:56,269
Father Hendry didn't know
343
00:13:56,303 --> 00:13:57,637
Jamie was already dead?
344
00:13:57,670 --> 00:13:59,072
FIN:
Sam lied.
Told him
345
00:13:59,106 --> 00:14:00,473
the kid had a fit
and was all wrung out.
346
00:14:00,507 --> 00:14:01,441
After a grand mal seizure
347
00:14:01,474 --> 00:14:04,277
epileptics can go
into a semi-comatose state.
348
00:14:04,311 --> 00:14:05,879
It's called
postictal shock.
349
00:14:05,913 --> 00:14:06,880
FIN:
Sam's brought Jamie
to the church
350
00:14:06,914 --> 00:14:07,915
like that before.
351
00:14:07,948 --> 00:14:10,483
Father Hendry thinks
he can wake him up again.
352
00:14:10,517 --> 00:14:12,452
Jamie's birth-mother
just arrived.
353
00:14:12,485 --> 00:14:14,021
This woman is
going to blow.
354
00:14:14,054 --> 00:14:15,455
Anything I can tell her?
355
00:14:15,488 --> 00:14:17,057
Yeah. You caught
her son's killer
356
00:14:17,090 --> 00:14:18,591
and I'm arraigning him
for murder.
357
00:14:20,427 --> 00:14:22,095
Why didn't anybody tell me
358
00:14:22,129 --> 00:14:24,397
what those monsters did
to my son?
359
00:14:24,431 --> 00:14:25,232
We tried calling you.
360
00:14:25,265 --> 00:14:26,433
Then why'd I have
to find out about it
361
00:14:26,466 --> 00:14:28,368
over the television?
362
00:14:28,401 --> 00:14:30,303
My own little son...
363
00:14:30,337 --> 00:14:31,604
Didn't ACS contact you?
364
00:14:31,638 --> 00:14:34,241
How do you think
this all got started?
365
00:14:34,274 --> 00:14:37,410
Who the hell do you think
took Jamie from me
366
00:14:37,444 --> 00:14:39,446
and put him with those freaks?
367
00:14:39,479 --> 00:14:42,315
If you have any information
about the Dufoys,
368
00:14:42,349 --> 00:14:43,917
we'd like to hear it.
369
00:14:43,951 --> 00:14:47,554
He said they hurt him.
370
00:14:48,421 --> 00:14:50,690
He begged me
to let him come home.
371
00:14:50,723 --> 00:14:52,625
Did you report that to ACS?
372
00:14:52,659 --> 00:14:53,726
Yes, I did.
373
00:14:53,760 --> 00:14:55,462
But do you think that bitch
did anything about it?
374
00:14:55,495 --> 00:14:57,364
You mean Mariel Plummer.
375
00:14:57,397 --> 00:14:58,398
Yeah, her.
376
00:14:58,431 --> 00:15:03,971
My son's poor dead
little body is at her door.
377
00:15:06,073 --> 00:15:07,240
She's going to pay for it,
378
00:15:07,274 --> 00:15:10,510
and ACS is
going to pay for it,
379
00:15:10,543 --> 00:15:13,180
the city's going to pay for it.
380
00:15:13,213 --> 00:15:14,481
That's not going
381
00:15:14,514 --> 00:15:15,915
to bring Jamie back.
382
00:15:18,451 --> 00:15:20,653
Have you ever lost a child?
383
00:15:21,554 --> 00:15:22,555
You think
384
00:15:22,589 --> 00:15:26,093
this is about money?!
385
00:15:28,061 --> 00:15:29,362
Unfortunately,
386
00:15:29,396 --> 00:15:30,663
it does seem to be about money.
387
00:15:30,697 --> 00:15:32,399
Tamara Semple's got convictions
388
00:15:32,432 --> 00:15:34,201
for credit card fraud
and shoplifting.
389
00:15:34,234 --> 00:15:36,136
Doesn't take away her right
to be angry.
390
00:15:36,169 --> 00:15:39,039
She loses custody of Jamie
and he ends up dead.
391
00:15:39,072 --> 00:15:42,109
Kid might not have been much
safer with his real mama.
392
00:15:42,142 --> 00:15:43,110
ACS removed Jamie
393
00:15:43,143 --> 00:15:45,712
after his little
sister drowned
in the bathtub.
394
00:15:45,745 --> 00:15:47,047
Where was Tamara?
395
00:15:47,080 --> 00:15:48,448
Talking on the phone.
396
00:15:48,481 --> 00:15:50,417
Courts ruled it was
an accidental death,
397
00:15:50,450 --> 00:15:52,452
but ACS did a
precautionary
removal of Jamie.
398
00:15:52,485 --> 00:15:54,321
This woman's kid dies
in foster care,
399
00:15:54,354 --> 00:15:56,389
the first thing she sees
is a big fat settlement.
400
00:15:56,423 --> 00:15:59,292
What about her allegations
the Dufoys hurt Jamie?
401
00:15:59,326 --> 00:16:00,360
If they did,
402
00:16:00,393 --> 00:16:01,728
ACS could be
found liable,
403
00:16:01,761 --> 00:16:04,597
which would weaken our case
against Sam Dufoy.
404
00:16:04,631 --> 00:16:07,134
We should check it out.
405
00:16:09,102 --> 00:16:11,504
Wouldn't be the first lawsuit
406
00:16:11,538 --> 00:16:14,174
that Tamara Semple brought
against ACS.
407
00:16:14,207 --> 00:16:16,376
Of course,
none of them succeeded.
408
00:16:16,409 --> 00:16:18,011
She told us Jamie complained
409
00:16:18,045 --> 00:16:19,712
the Dufoys
physically abused him.
410
00:16:19,746 --> 00:16:22,149
He never said a word
to me about abuse.
411
00:16:22,182 --> 00:16:24,017
Sam and Lori-Ann
were good parents.
412
00:16:24,051 --> 00:16:26,386
Good parents
don't kill their kids.
413
00:16:26,419 --> 00:16:28,255
You have to understand
414
00:16:28,288 --> 00:16:31,391
how difficult a child
like Jamie could be.
415
00:16:31,424 --> 00:16:32,525
Sam probably snapped.
416
00:16:32,559 --> 00:16:35,495
Did you ever see any evidence
that Sam was unstable?
417
00:16:35,528 --> 00:16:37,130
No. On my home visits,
418
00:16:37,164 --> 00:16:39,099
Jamie was happy, clean,
419
00:16:39,132 --> 00:16:41,234
and very fond of both
420
00:16:41,268 --> 00:16:42,235
Lori-Ann and Sam.
421
00:16:42,269 --> 00:16:43,236
Sam work?
422
00:16:43,270 --> 00:16:44,271
He stays home,
423
00:16:44,304 --> 00:16:45,438
looks after Jamie.
424
00:16:45,472 --> 00:16:47,740
Lori-Ann brought in the money.
425
00:16:47,774 --> 00:16:49,809
Sam and Lori-Ann
were married young.
426
00:16:49,842 --> 00:16:52,312
He was a college
basketball star,
427
00:16:52,345 --> 00:16:55,048
about to be drafted
into the NBA,
428
00:16:55,082 --> 00:16:57,417
when a knee injury
put an end to the dreams.
429
00:16:57,450 --> 00:16:58,618
Excuse me. Tutuola.
430
00:16:58,651 --> 00:17:00,387
Lori-Ann stuck by him.
431
00:17:00,420 --> 00:17:01,221
I make it my business
432
00:17:01,254 --> 00:17:03,390
to know about
my foster families.
433
00:17:04,657 --> 00:17:05,625
This is Jamie's file.
434
00:17:05,658 --> 00:17:06,693
You can take it.
435
00:17:06,726 --> 00:17:07,727
I'm afraid I can't take it
436
00:17:07,760 --> 00:17:09,296
without getting
a subpoena first.
437
00:17:09,329 --> 00:17:12,165
Sure. It's here
when you need it.
438
00:17:12,199 --> 00:17:13,466
Thank you.
439
00:17:13,500 --> 00:17:16,803
Thanks.
440
00:17:16,836 --> 00:17:17,870
Crime lab.
441
00:17:17,904 --> 00:17:20,740
They said they got
something they want
us to hear.
442
00:17:21,708 --> 00:17:22,742
I checked Sam's LUDS.
443
00:17:22,775 --> 00:17:25,312
A half hour before
he called Lori-Ann
at the store,
444
00:17:25,345 --> 00:17:27,380
he also called
the Child Abuse Hotline.
445
00:17:27,414 --> 00:17:29,616
And all the Hotline calls
are recorded.
446
00:17:29,649 --> 00:17:31,151
That's right.
447
00:17:31,184 --> 00:17:32,352
SAM:
Hello? Hello!
448
00:17:32,385 --> 00:17:35,322
WOMAN:
Child Abuse Hotline.
Can I help you?
449
00:17:35,355 --> 00:17:36,223
Yeah, it's my foster kid,
450
00:17:36,256 --> 00:17:38,091
I can't deal with him
anymore. He's...
451
00:17:38,125 --> 00:17:39,126
( loud crash, Jamie yells )
452
00:17:39,159 --> 00:17:40,127
Jamie, cut that out!
453
00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:41,461
You've got to help me here!
454
00:17:41,494 --> 00:17:43,163
Sir, are you reporting
an incident
455
00:17:43,196 --> 00:17:44,164
of child abuse?
456
00:17:44,197 --> 00:17:45,432
No, no, nothing like that.
457
00:17:45,465 --> 00:17:47,434
Is the child in danger
at this moment?
458
00:17:47,467 --> 00:17:49,236
No! He's just
out of control!
459
00:17:49,269 --> 00:17:51,138
Sir, if it's an
emergency, call 911.
460
00:17:51,171 --> 00:17:53,540
Otherwise you should call
your ACS caseworker.
461
00:17:53,573 --> 00:17:55,308
I have called!
She never answers.
462
00:17:55,342 --> 00:17:56,609
I want help, you hear?!
463
00:17:56,643 --> 00:17:58,345
I want him out
of my house!
464
00:17:58,378 --> 00:17:59,512
Sir, I'll take
your information
465
00:17:59,546 --> 00:18:01,348
and pass it to Child
Protective Services.
466
00:18:01,381 --> 00:18:03,783
They'll contact you
within 24 hours.
467
00:18:03,816 --> 00:18:07,320
24 hours? Oh, man!
468
00:18:07,354 --> 00:18:10,323
Had he called his caseworker?
469
00:18:10,357 --> 00:18:12,859
Well, LUDS show four calls
to Mariel Plummer's ACS office
470
00:18:12,892 --> 00:18:13,860
the day Jamie died.
471
00:18:13,893 --> 00:18:15,595
Did she talk to him?
472
00:18:15,628 --> 00:18:16,429
I can't say.
473
00:18:16,463 --> 00:18:17,530
No call was shorter
than 20 seconds,
474
00:18:17,564 --> 00:18:20,633
which means Sam either
had a conversation with her
475
00:18:20,667 --> 00:18:22,135
or left a message.
476
00:18:22,169 --> 00:18:25,438
It's funny how Mariel
didn't tell us any of this.
477
00:18:25,472 --> 00:18:26,906
I'll put a rush on the subpoena.
478
00:18:26,939 --> 00:18:28,808
You get a hold
of all Mariel's case files.
479
00:18:28,841 --> 00:18:30,743
We'll see what else
she forgot to tell us.
480
00:18:32,312 --> 00:18:34,847
Mariel's records seem to show
she was doing her job.
481
00:18:34,881 --> 00:18:36,249
Visited Jamie every month,
but see those dates?
482
00:18:36,283 --> 00:18:37,250
MUNCH:
They're the same.
483
00:18:37,284 --> 00:18:38,285
Yeah.
484
00:18:38,318 --> 00:18:39,886
which means all the records
were wither generated
485
00:18:39,919 --> 00:18:42,255
or altered on the same date;
which happens to be yesterday.
486
00:18:42,289 --> 00:18:43,390
What are you doing?
487
00:18:43,423 --> 00:18:45,658
I gave you everything you need.
488
00:18:45,692 --> 00:18:47,827
We were just admiring
you writing up
489
00:18:47,860 --> 00:18:50,563
six-months worth of records
in only one day.
490
00:18:50,597 --> 00:18:54,601
I was checking them
because of the subpoena.
491
00:18:54,634 --> 00:18:56,803
I didn't alter a thing.
492
00:18:56,836 --> 00:18:57,937
I'm afraid the log date
493
00:18:57,970 --> 00:18:59,839
only changes
if an alteration is made.
494
00:18:59,872 --> 00:19:01,441
I was probably
tidying things up.
495
00:19:01,474 --> 00:19:04,211
It's impossible to keep track
of all the paperwork.
496
00:19:04,244 --> 00:19:05,278
Mariel Plummer,
497
00:19:05,312 --> 00:19:06,045
you are under arrest
498
00:19:06,078 --> 00:19:07,914
for tampering
with public records.
499
00:19:07,947 --> 00:19:10,250
You're arresting me
for paperwork?
500
00:19:10,283 --> 00:19:11,651
And for reckless
endangerment
501
00:19:11,684 --> 00:19:13,286
in the death
of Jamie Semple.
502
00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:14,787
You have the right
to remain silent.
503
00:19:14,821 --> 00:19:15,822
Anything you do say...
504
00:19:20,827 --> 00:19:21,761
You've got
a problem, Counselor.
505
00:19:21,794 --> 00:19:24,264
Arresting Jamie's social
worker makes it harder
506
00:19:24,297 --> 00:19:25,265
to convict Sam Dufoy.
507
00:19:25,298 --> 00:19:26,466
He can claim it
was her fault:
508
00:19:26,499 --> 00:19:28,268
he asked for help
and didn't get it.
509
00:19:28,301 --> 00:19:29,936
And if a jury buys it,
Sam could walk.
510
00:19:29,969 --> 00:19:31,971
What are you going
to do, plead him out?
511
00:19:32,004 --> 00:19:33,206
No way.
512
00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:34,341
He killed that kid.
513
00:19:34,374 --> 00:19:35,642
Question is--
who do I try first?
514
00:19:35,675 --> 00:19:37,810
If I go with Sam and I put
Mariel on the stand,
515
00:19:37,844 --> 00:19:40,247
she can't testify without
incriminating herself.
516
00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:41,814
But I don't want
to give her immunity.
517
00:19:41,848 --> 00:19:43,516
What does your gut tell you?
518
00:19:43,550 --> 00:19:45,318
Get the facts
on the record...
519
00:19:45,352 --> 00:19:48,321
catch the little fish
before I go for the big one.
520
00:19:48,355 --> 00:19:50,590
I'll go schedule
Mariel's court date.
521
00:19:55,728 --> 00:19:56,963
Casey...
522
00:19:56,996 --> 00:19:58,898
Carolyn. What are
you doing here?
523
00:19:58,931 --> 00:20:00,733
Representing
Mariel Plummer.
524
00:20:00,767 --> 00:20:03,936
I trust you've had second
thoughts about persecuting her.
525
00:20:03,970 --> 00:20:05,605
No.
526
00:20:05,638 --> 00:20:07,874
You seriously intend
to clog up the courts,
527
00:20:07,907 --> 00:20:10,510
to try someone on a couple
of clerical errors?
528
00:20:10,543 --> 00:20:11,611
Not errors.
529
00:20:11,644 --> 00:20:14,281
Deliberate falsifications
designed to conceal the fact
530
00:20:14,314 --> 00:20:15,682
she recklessly
endangered a child.
531
00:20:15,715 --> 00:20:16,783
My client was deceived
532
00:20:16,816 --> 00:20:18,551
by a nut case,
who murdered a kid
533
00:20:18,585 --> 00:20:21,321
and then asked a voodoo priest
to bring him back to life.
534
00:20:21,354 --> 00:20:22,389
But let's deal.
535
00:20:22,422 --> 00:20:23,189
A year's probation
536
00:20:23,222 --> 00:20:25,325
for falsifying
the official record--
537
00:20:25,358 --> 00:20:26,593
you drop
all other charges.
538
00:20:26,626 --> 00:20:27,594
No thanks.
539
00:20:27,627 --> 00:20:28,795
She takes a felony plea--
540
00:20:28,828 --> 00:20:30,630
guilty of reckless
endangerment.
541
00:20:30,663 --> 00:20:32,665
Motion to dismiss
the endangerment charge
542
00:20:32,699 --> 00:20:34,534
on constitutional
grounds.
543
00:20:34,567 --> 00:20:36,369
What are you talking about?
544
00:20:36,403 --> 00:20:38,471
You're forgetting your
14th Amendment, Casey.
545
00:20:38,505 --> 00:20:39,439
See you at the hearing.
546
00:20:43,075 --> 00:20:45,645
The Due Process Clause
in the 14th Amendment
547
00:20:45,678 --> 00:20:48,681
does not require a state agency
to protect its citizens
548
00:20:48,715 --> 00:20:49,682
from private violence.
549
00:20:49,716 --> 00:20:52,352
Therefore there's no case
against my client.
550
00:20:52,385 --> 00:20:54,621
That ruling also says
that a state agency
551
00:20:54,654 --> 00:20:55,955
isn't required to protect
its citizens
552
00:20:55,988 --> 00:20:57,524
against violence
and other mishaps
553
00:20:57,557 --> 00:20:58,525
that are, I quote,
554
00:20:58,558 --> 00:20:59,326
"not attributable
555
00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:01,394
to the conducts
of its employees."
556
00:21:01,428 --> 00:21:04,331
Jamie Semple's death is at least
partly attributable
557
00:21:04,364 --> 00:21:05,832
to Mariel Plummer's
negligence.
558
00:21:05,865 --> 00:21:07,634
Ms. Maddox,
your own case law
559
00:21:07,667 --> 00:21:08,668
seems to help Ms. Novak.
560
00:21:08,701 --> 00:21:10,637
She's misreading
what the justices
561
00:21:10,670 --> 00:21:11,638
had in mind.
562
00:21:11,671 --> 00:21:14,507
If a criminal court finds
my client culpable
563
00:21:14,541 --> 00:21:16,609
for Jamie's death,
then who's next?
564
00:21:16,643 --> 00:21:17,944
Police officers who fail
565
00:21:17,977 --> 00:21:19,111
to prevent a homicide?
566
00:21:19,145 --> 00:21:22,649
Firefighters who don't save
someone from being burned?
567
00:21:22,682 --> 00:21:24,016
Your Honor,
that's a reach.
568
00:21:24,050 --> 00:21:25,518
Many courts
have ruled
569
00:21:25,552 --> 00:21:26,919
that a child in foster care
is analogous
570
00:21:26,953 --> 00:21:28,421
to a prisoner in state custody,
571
00:21:28,455 --> 00:21:29,989
and that state officials,
like Ms. Plummer,
572
00:21:30,022 --> 00:21:32,625
are not only liable
for harm the child suffers,
573
00:21:32,659 --> 00:21:33,826
but also
for failing to act
574
00:21:33,860 --> 00:21:36,763
where there is potential
for harm.
575
00:21:36,796 --> 00:21:38,365
I'm sorry, Ms. Maddox,
576
00:21:38,398 --> 00:21:40,933
I agree with Ms. Novak's reading
of the law.
577
00:21:40,967 --> 00:21:43,870
Your client must
stand trial.
578
00:21:48,441 --> 00:21:50,443
When you called
the Child Abuse Hotline
579
00:21:50,477 --> 00:21:51,411
the night Jamie died,
580
00:21:51,444 --> 00:21:53,346
you said you tried to contact
581
00:21:53,380 --> 00:21:54,714
your case worker,
Mariel Plummer.
582
00:21:54,747 --> 00:21:55,715
How many times?
583
00:21:55,748 --> 00:21:57,384
Four times that day.
584
00:21:57,417 --> 00:22:00,387
Another three times
the week before.
585
00:22:00,420 --> 00:22:02,689
Did she ever return
any of those calls?
586
00:22:02,722 --> 00:22:05,091
No.
587
00:22:05,124 --> 00:22:06,626
Why were you calling her?
588
00:22:06,659 --> 00:22:08,561
Because I was
having a hard time
589
00:22:08,595 --> 00:22:09,562
coping with Jamie.
590
00:22:09,596 --> 00:22:11,398
What could Mariel have done?
591
00:22:11,431 --> 00:22:14,567
If she had called back
or visited,
592
00:22:14,601 --> 00:22:17,570
she would have seen that Jamie
was out of control,
593
00:22:17,604 --> 00:22:19,406
and how I was struggling.
594
00:22:19,439 --> 00:22:22,542
Then none of this
would have happened.
595
00:22:22,575 --> 00:22:24,644
Thank you.
596
00:22:24,677 --> 00:22:27,714
Why not call 911?
597
00:22:27,747 --> 00:22:29,849
What do you mean?
598
00:22:29,882 --> 00:22:32,552
You said you were scared you
couldn't cope with Jamie.
599
00:22:32,585 --> 00:22:33,553
Why not call 911
600
00:22:33,586 --> 00:22:36,423
as the operator suggested?
601
00:22:36,456 --> 00:22:38,491
I don't know.
602
00:22:38,525 --> 00:22:40,126
Or take Jamie
to the emergency room,
603
00:22:40,159 --> 00:22:42,995
or call a neighbor,
or do anything?
604
00:22:44,697 --> 00:22:46,566
I thought I could handle him.
605
00:22:46,599 --> 00:22:48,635
How, by smothering him
with a pillow?
606
00:22:48,668 --> 00:22:50,470
Objection!
607
00:22:50,503 --> 00:22:51,504
It goes to credibility,
Your Honor.
608
00:22:51,538 --> 00:22:53,673
The jury has a right to know
that this witness
609
00:22:53,706 --> 00:22:55,942
is facing criminal charges in
the death of his foster son
610
00:22:55,975 --> 00:23:00,480
and therefore has
an excellent motive to lie.
611
00:23:00,513 --> 00:23:01,481
I'll allow it.
612
00:23:01,514 --> 00:23:02,682
The witness will respond.
613
00:23:02,715 --> 00:23:04,617
Did you suffocate Jamie
614
00:23:04,651 --> 00:23:06,419
with a pillow?
615
00:23:07,820 --> 00:23:10,657
I assert my Fifth Amendment
rights
616
00:23:10,690 --> 00:23:13,826
against
self-incrimination.
617
00:23:13,860 --> 00:23:15,962
Nothing further.
618
00:23:19,532 --> 00:23:22,068
How long have you been
a social worker?
619
00:23:22,101 --> 00:23:23,169
About 18 years.
620
00:23:23,202 --> 00:23:24,571
And why did you become one?
621
00:23:24,604 --> 00:23:25,938
I wanted to help people--
622
00:23:25,972 --> 00:23:27,707
make a difference
in a small way.
623
00:23:27,740 --> 00:23:29,509
I'm sure there are
many people
624
00:23:29,542 --> 00:23:32,111
who are very grateful to you.
625
00:23:32,144 --> 00:23:33,580
Frankly,
I doubt that.
626
00:23:33,613 --> 00:23:34,781
I usually show up
627
00:23:34,814 --> 00:23:36,816
when a family is in crisis.
628
00:23:36,849 --> 00:23:39,619
I'm the one who has to say
to the mom,
629
00:23:39,652 --> 00:23:42,121
"Why are your kids'
clothes dirty?
630
00:23:42,154 --> 00:23:44,524
Why did your kids
miss school?"
631
00:23:44,557 --> 00:23:46,726
Worse than that,
I'm the one
632
00:23:46,759 --> 00:23:48,595
that has to remove the kids
633
00:23:48,628 --> 00:23:51,664
if there's any suspicion
of abuse or neglect.
634
00:23:51,698 --> 00:23:53,500
Have you ever been threatened?
635
00:23:53,533 --> 00:23:55,034
Usually just
verbal abuse.
636
00:23:55,067 --> 00:23:56,869
I've been mugged three times,
637
00:23:56,903 --> 00:23:59,205
chased out of apartments
with knives.
638
00:23:59,238 --> 00:24:01,073
I work in pretty rough areas.
639
00:24:01,107 --> 00:24:03,743
And you keep
coming back?
640
00:24:03,776 --> 00:24:06,846
Someone has to look out
for the kids.
641
00:24:06,879 --> 00:24:10,550
Then what went wrong with Jamie?
642
00:24:11,751 --> 00:24:14,186
I made a mistake.
643
00:24:14,220 --> 00:24:18,491
I thought that Lori-Ann and Sam
were good foster parents
644
00:24:18,525 --> 00:24:20,493
and that Jamie was safe.
645
00:24:20,527 --> 00:24:21,894
And you never thought
646
00:24:21,928 --> 00:24:22,962
he was in danger?
647
00:24:22,995 --> 00:24:23,963
No.
648
00:24:23,996 --> 00:24:26,533
And I had what
I thought
649
00:24:26,566 --> 00:24:28,234
were more urgent cases--
650
00:24:28,267 --> 00:24:31,571
and I was giving all my
attention to them.
651
00:24:31,604 --> 00:24:33,172
I was wrong.
652
00:24:33,205 --> 00:24:36,943
I'll never be able
to forgive myself.
653
00:24:36,976 --> 00:24:38,210
Thank you.
654
00:24:41,781 --> 00:24:44,283
You say you didn't think
Jamie was in danger...
655
00:24:44,316 --> 00:24:46,819
but Sam Dufoy had called,
left messages.
656
00:24:46,853 --> 00:24:48,087
Didn't that warn you?
657
00:24:48,120 --> 00:24:51,257
The messages said that
Jamie was acting up
658
00:24:51,290 --> 00:24:53,760
and that Sam wanted to talk.
659
00:24:53,793 --> 00:24:55,662
It didn't sound urgent.
660
00:24:55,695 --> 00:24:57,263
He called four times
661
00:24:57,296 --> 00:24:58,598
the day Jamie died.
662
00:24:58,631 --> 00:25:00,933
How much more urgent can it get?
663
00:25:00,967 --> 00:25:02,802
I thought Jaime was safe.
664
00:25:02,835 --> 00:25:03,970
You had no idea
665
00:25:04,003 --> 00:25:06,539
what was going on
in the Dufoy house.
666
00:25:06,573 --> 00:25:08,074
You'd hadn't
visited in months.
667
00:25:08,107 --> 00:25:09,876
You'd forgotten
all about Jamie.
668
00:25:09,909 --> 00:25:11,177
No, I cared about him.
669
00:25:11,210 --> 00:25:13,980
Then why not return Sam's calls?
670
00:25:14,013 --> 00:25:15,682
Because I was out of the office
671
00:25:15,715 --> 00:25:17,316
till late working
on another case.
672
00:25:17,349 --> 00:25:21,721
But you cared about Jamie.
673
00:25:21,754 --> 00:25:24,991
Why was that other case
so much more important?
674
00:25:28,628 --> 00:25:31,698
A father returned home
from prison.
675
00:25:31,731 --> 00:25:35,267
He beat his wife to death
with a hammer,
676
00:25:35,301 --> 00:25:37,670
then he killed himself
in front of his two children.
677
00:25:37,704 --> 00:25:39,038
That's what I was working on.
678
00:25:39,071 --> 00:25:44,110
That's why I didn't
return Sam's calls.
679
00:25:44,143 --> 00:25:46,278
I made a terrible mistake,
680
00:25:46,312 --> 00:25:49,682
but don't accuse me
of not caring.
681
00:25:53,285 --> 00:25:56,055
No further questions.
682
00:26:00,126 --> 00:26:03,262
A social worker's job--
poorly paid, usually thankless.
683
00:26:03,295 --> 00:26:05,231
They work in the most
deprived
684
00:26:05,264 --> 00:26:07,600
and violent parts
of our cities,
685
00:26:07,634 --> 00:26:11,137
where they can be assaulted,
raped even murdered.
686
00:26:11,170 --> 00:26:13,606
Burnout's common.
687
00:26:13,640 --> 00:26:16,275
Many don't last five years.
688
00:26:16,308 --> 00:26:19,912
Mariel Plummer has worked
for 18.
689
00:26:19,946 --> 00:26:24,784
When Jamie died,
she had nearly 20 cases.
690
00:26:24,817 --> 00:26:29,321
The recommended caseload
is 12.
691
00:26:29,355 --> 00:26:32,625
This tragedy isn't
Mariel's fault,
692
00:26:32,659 --> 00:26:35,061
it's the fault of an
overburdened system:
693
00:26:35,094 --> 00:26:37,764
too few case workers,
too few dollars,
694
00:26:37,797 --> 00:26:41,200
too many children in need.
695
00:26:41,233 --> 00:26:45,004
Out of grief and panic
after Jamie's death,
696
00:26:45,037 --> 00:26:48,174
Mariel altered
her official records.
697
00:26:48,207 --> 00:26:51,911
She admits it,
she is sorry for it.
698
00:26:51,944 --> 00:26:54,246
Find her guilty on that charge,
699
00:26:54,280 --> 00:26:57,850
not on the charge of endangering
Jamie's life.
700
00:26:57,884 --> 00:27:02,789
Jamie slipped through
a crack in the system.
701
00:27:02,822 --> 00:27:05,892
Blame the system,
702
00:27:05,925 --> 00:27:08,895
blame the man who killed Jamie,
703
00:27:08,928 --> 00:27:13,933
but don't blame
the social worker.
704
00:27:19,772 --> 00:27:22,909
Mariel Plummer was the crack
in the system.
705
00:27:22,942 --> 00:27:28,981
She was the one person whose job
it was to look out for Jamie,
706
00:27:29,015 --> 00:27:31,818
and she failed to do her job.
707
00:27:31,851 --> 00:27:33,920
If she'd made any one
of the visits
708
00:27:33,953 --> 00:27:35,788
she fraudulently claimed
709
00:27:35,822 --> 00:27:39,726
to have made, or returned any
one of the phone calls,
710
00:27:39,759 --> 00:27:40,993
Jamie would be alive.
711
00:27:41,027 --> 00:27:45,031
She turned her back on him.
712
00:27:45,064 --> 00:27:47,166
That is child endangerment.
713
00:27:47,199 --> 00:27:51,170
This time you must blame
the social worker.
714
00:27:51,203 --> 00:27:54,340
Find Mariel guilty and send
a message to her,
715
00:27:54,373 --> 00:27:57,009
to her supervisors
and to the city
716
00:27:57,043 --> 00:27:58,410
and to the state,
717
00:27:58,444 --> 00:28:04,016
that the death of even one child
is unacceptable.
718
00:28:10,389 --> 00:28:11,924
Verdict in already?
719
00:28:11,958 --> 00:28:13,159
Guilty
on the record tampering,
720
00:28:13,192 --> 00:28:14,894
not guilty on
child endangerment.
721
00:28:14,927 --> 00:28:15,995
Why not?
722
00:28:16,028 --> 00:28:17,930
Maddox played the jury
like a violin.
723
00:28:17,964 --> 00:28:19,932
Mariel was under intolerable
pressure,
724
00:28:19,966 --> 00:28:21,768
she made an understandable
mistake.
725
00:28:21,801 --> 00:28:22,969
They bought it.
726
00:28:23,002 --> 00:28:24,436
At least when
you try Sam Dufoy,
727
00:28:24,470 --> 00:28:26,205
he won't be able
to blame Mariel.
728
00:28:26,238 --> 00:28:27,406
Unless I blow that trial, too.
729
00:28:27,439 --> 00:28:30,309
Someone's got to be accountable
for that poor kid's death.
730
00:28:30,342 --> 00:28:31,343
I may have something.
731
00:28:31,377 --> 00:28:33,780
Clear evidence of abuse
from the Dufoy apartment.
732
00:28:33,813 --> 00:28:35,982
Why'd it take so long?
733
00:28:36,015 --> 00:28:39,118
Sample had to work its way from
Criminalistics to Serology.
734
00:28:39,151 --> 00:28:41,020
Remember the stain
on Jamie's bed?
735
00:28:41,053 --> 00:28:41,988
It's blood.
736
00:28:42,021 --> 00:28:44,223
Lab finally ID'd the object
that made it:
737
00:28:44,256 --> 00:28:45,291
a cheese grater.
738
00:28:45,324 --> 00:28:48,227
Serology found skin cells
and cheese fragments.
739
00:28:48,260 --> 00:28:51,798
Someone dragged a cheese grater
across the kid's skin?
740
00:28:51,831 --> 00:28:53,332
How old is the blood stain?
741
00:28:53,365 --> 00:28:54,466
At most a few days.
742
00:28:54,500 --> 00:28:57,469
Otherwise the blood would
have oxidized completely.
743
00:28:57,503 --> 00:28:59,872
FIN:
But Jamie didn't have
744
00:28:59,906 --> 00:29:00,706
any other marks on him.
745
00:29:00,739 --> 00:29:02,208
That's because it wasn't
Jamie's blood.
746
00:29:02,241 --> 00:29:04,310
It's from a female.
747
00:29:04,343 --> 00:29:05,311
Mom?
748
00:29:05,344 --> 00:29:07,146
Wrong blood group.
749
00:29:07,179 --> 00:29:09,816
And from the low levels
of the hormones
750
00:29:09,849 --> 00:29:11,383
FSH and LH in her blood,
751
00:29:11,417 --> 00:29:13,920
this female is in early puberty.
752
00:29:13,953 --> 00:29:16,488
The Dufoys had a girl
in that apartment?
753
00:29:16,522 --> 00:29:18,457
Then where the hell is she?
754
00:29:18,490 --> 00:29:19,458
Go talk to Mariel.
755
00:29:19,491 --> 00:29:22,962
See if she made another
understandable mistake.
756
00:29:30,036 --> 00:29:31,037
What do you want?
757
00:29:31,070 --> 00:29:33,105
Aren't you done
harassing me?
758
00:29:33,139 --> 00:29:36,308
Don't kid yourself, lady,
you got off light.
759
00:29:36,342 --> 00:29:38,177
I lost my job, my pension,
760
00:29:38,210 --> 00:29:40,546
I've been crucified
by the press.
761
00:29:40,579 --> 00:29:42,581
I get threatening
phone calls...
762
00:29:42,614 --> 00:29:45,151
I don't have time for
your self-pity.
763
00:29:45,184 --> 00:29:48,054
Where's the other foster kid
that was staying
764
00:29:48,087 --> 00:29:49,188
in the Dufoys' apartment?
765
00:29:49,221 --> 00:29:50,923
What are you talking about?
766
00:29:50,957 --> 00:29:52,291
Jamie was their only child.
767
00:29:52,324 --> 00:29:53,425
You saw my records.
768
00:29:53,459 --> 00:29:55,127
Your records don't mean
a damn thing.
769
00:29:55,161 --> 00:29:57,229
Forensics says there was
another girl there.
770
00:29:57,263 --> 00:29:58,597
What forensics?
771
00:29:58,630 --> 00:30:00,166
The girl's blood.
772
00:30:00,199 --> 00:30:03,936
Sam Dufoy sliced her up
with a cheese grater.
773
00:30:05,537 --> 00:30:09,909
Oh, my God, I... I had no idea.
774
00:30:09,942 --> 00:30:13,880
Why didn't I go
to the apartment?
775
00:30:13,913 --> 00:30:15,147
I'm so sorry.
776
00:30:15,181 --> 00:30:16,615
( phone ringing )
777
00:30:16,648 --> 00:30:18,150
Yeah, I bet you are.
778
00:30:18,184 --> 00:30:21,587
Just tell me where she is
and how I can find her.
779
00:30:21,620 --> 00:30:22,989
I don't know...
780
00:30:23,022 --> 00:30:23,990
Hello.
781
00:30:24,023 --> 00:30:26,092
Just leave me alone!
782
00:30:26,125 --> 00:30:28,227
Give me this.
783
00:30:28,260 --> 00:30:30,229
Yeah, who the hell
you calling a bitch?
784
00:30:30,262 --> 00:30:31,363
This is the police.
785
00:30:31,397 --> 00:30:33,966
Ring this number again
we're going to come
786
00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:35,267
busting in your damn door.
787
00:30:35,301 --> 00:30:37,636
Believe that.
788
00:30:37,669 --> 00:30:39,872
Mariel...
789
00:30:39,906 --> 00:30:41,540
Okay, okay, okay.
790
00:30:41,573 --> 00:30:44,343
Put the gun down.
Come on.
791
00:30:44,376 --> 00:30:47,914
Please put down the gun.
792
00:30:47,947 --> 00:30:50,316
I saved thousands of children
and I'll only be remembered
793
00:30:50,349 --> 00:30:52,118
for one.
794
00:30:52,151 --> 00:30:53,920
No...
( gunshot )
795
00:31:01,160 --> 00:31:03,162
( gasping )
796
00:31:03,195 --> 00:31:05,164
You didn't have to do this.
797
00:31:12,671 --> 00:31:16,108
Single shot to the
chest, point blank.
798
00:31:16,142 --> 00:31:18,310
This should be a
quick job for you.
799
00:31:18,344 --> 00:31:19,345
WARNER:
Thanks.
800
00:31:19,378 --> 00:31:21,413
Are you okay?
801
00:31:21,447 --> 00:31:23,249
I'm cool.
802
00:31:23,282 --> 00:31:25,117
I know.
803
00:31:25,151 --> 00:31:27,586
But are you okay?
804
00:31:27,619 --> 00:31:29,388
Yeah.
805
00:31:33,492 --> 00:31:35,694
You come to shrink me, too?
Nope. You need me,
you'll holler.
806
00:31:35,727 --> 00:31:36,695
Yeah, I do.
807
00:31:36,728 --> 00:31:40,066
Would you get over to ACS,
see what you can find
808
00:31:40,099 --> 00:31:43,302
on a foster kid-- a girl--
staying with the Dufoys.
809
00:31:43,335 --> 00:31:44,937
Mariel Plummer didn't
know who she was?
810
00:31:44,971 --> 00:31:46,939
If she had have checked
on Jamie, she would've,
811
00:31:46,973 --> 00:31:50,009
but, uh, I told her
about the blood stain.
812
00:31:50,042 --> 00:31:51,910
That's when
she shot herself.
813
00:31:53,212 --> 00:31:54,480
Where you going?
814
00:31:54,513 --> 00:31:57,183
I'm going to go
get cleaned up.
815
00:31:57,216 --> 00:31:59,618
Then I'm going to pay
Sam Dufoy a visit.
816
00:32:04,390 --> 00:32:06,558
SAM:
I don't know
what you're talking about.
817
00:32:06,592 --> 00:32:08,961
FIN:
People who say that
usually mean they do.
818
00:32:08,995 --> 00:32:11,330
There was no girl
living with us.
!
You're a liar.
819
00:32:11,363 --> 00:32:12,698
You cut her
and left her blood
820
00:32:12,731 --> 00:32:14,700
and skin on the bed--
what's her name?
821
00:32:14,733 --> 00:32:16,568
He told you:
he doesn't know.
822
00:32:16,602 --> 00:32:18,170
FIN:
You kill her too?
823
00:32:18,204 --> 00:32:19,605
Like you killed Jamie?
824
00:32:19,638 --> 00:32:22,975
Guard, we're through here.
825
00:32:23,609 --> 00:32:25,377
Is she alive?
826
00:32:25,411 --> 00:32:27,046
What did you do with her?
827
00:32:27,079 --> 00:32:28,447
Where the hell is she?
828
00:32:32,618 --> 00:32:33,619
That bastard
didn't give me a thing.
829
00:32:33,652 --> 00:32:34,753
What about Lori-Ann?
830
00:32:34,786 --> 00:32:36,622
She'll just come out with
that "Sam's a good man" crap.
831
00:32:36,655 --> 00:32:37,656
You got anything?
832
00:32:37,689 --> 00:32:39,125
Yep. ACS have no record
833
00:32:39,158 --> 00:32:41,593
of any other kids
placed with Sam Dufoy.
834
00:32:41,627 --> 00:32:44,563
So I got them to check under
Lori-Ann's maiden name.
835
00:32:44,596 --> 00:32:47,299
Four kids were placed
with Lori-Ann Watkins
in the last two years--
836
00:32:47,333 --> 00:32:49,535
all from Freshfields
private foster home.
837
00:32:49,568 --> 00:32:51,103
Is one of them our girl?
838
00:32:51,137 --> 00:32:53,405
Last kid was placed with
Lori-Ann six months ago,
839
00:32:53,439 --> 00:32:55,207
but ran away a
couple weeks later.
840
00:32:55,241 --> 00:32:56,208
Her name is Megan Rose.
841
00:32:56,242 --> 00:32:56,975
CRAGEN:
Why the hell did ACS
842
00:32:57,009 --> 00:32:59,278
only hear about this now?
ACS says
843
00:32:59,311 --> 00:33:01,680
they never got the report
Megan was missing.
844
00:33:01,713 --> 00:33:03,515
Freshfields insists
they sent it.
845
00:33:03,549 --> 00:33:05,084
While they're playing pass
the buck, Megan could be dead.
846
00:33:05,117 --> 00:33:07,153
John, find out why
this foster agency
847
00:33:07,186 --> 00:33:08,520
went on sending
kids to a woman
848
00:33:08,554 --> 00:33:10,256
who kept on
losing them-- Fin!
849
00:33:10,289 --> 00:33:11,690
I'm hauling her ass in.
850
00:33:13,659 --> 00:33:15,194
Yeah, of course
I know Megan.
851
00:33:15,227 --> 00:33:17,263
She ran away a week after
being placed with us.
852
00:33:17,296 --> 00:33:18,797
I'm afraid she
was incorrigible.
853
00:33:18,830 --> 00:33:20,399
And that just
slipped your mind.
854
00:33:20,432 --> 00:33:22,068
It was six months ago.
855
00:33:22,101 --> 00:33:24,136
I'm sorry, it didn't
seem relevant.
856
00:33:24,170 --> 00:33:29,508
What about Stacey Dean,
Isiah Simpson, Nyal Iwa?
857
00:33:29,541 --> 00:33:30,576
They incorrigible too?
858
00:33:30,609 --> 00:33:31,777
Yes.
859
00:33:31,810 --> 00:33:34,213
They've been in the foster care
system their entire lives.
860
00:33:34,246 --> 00:33:36,615
Sam is a great dad, and even
he couldn't cope with them.
861
00:33:36,648 --> 00:33:38,750
He "take care of them"
the same way he did Jamie?
862
00:33:38,784 --> 00:33:40,586
They ran away.
863
00:33:40,619 --> 00:33:42,221
We tried to help these kids,
864
00:33:42,254 --> 00:33:43,522
but they didn't
want to be helped.
865
00:33:43,555 --> 00:33:45,357
And I resent your accusations,
Detective.
866
00:33:45,391 --> 00:33:48,527
We're not through, lady.
Sit back down.
867
00:33:50,429 --> 00:33:52,464
When these kids went missing,
what did you do?
868
00:33:52,498 --> 00:33:55,067
I informed the
foster care agency.
869
00:33:55,101 --> 00:33:56,202
And they informed ACS?
870
00:33:56,235 --> 00:33:58,204
Right. They gave
the file back.
871
00:33:58,237 --> 00:34:00,239
MUNCH:
Then why doesn't ACS
have the files,
872
00:34:00,272 --> 00:34:01,173
and why are you
still getting paid?
873
00:34:01,207 --> 00:34:03,275
Your bank records show
you're still receiving
874
00:34:03,309 --> 00:34:04,643
Adoption Assistance Payments
875
00:34:04,676 --> 00:34:06,745
for every one
of those kids.
876
00:34:06,778 --> 00:34:08,280
It was a computer error.
877
00:34:08,314 --> 00:34:11,217
Four computer errors,
a little more than two years:
878
00:34:11,250 --> 00:34:12,518
you get two grand a month
879
00:34:12,551 --> 00:34:14,753
for kids that haven't been
in your home in months.
880
00:34:14,786 --> 00:34:16,588
I'm telling you,
it's a mistake.
881
00:34:16,622 --> 00:34:18,124
FIN:
You took in runaways,
882
00:34:18,157 --> 00:34:20,492
treat 'em like crap,
so they'd run away again.
883
00:34:20,526 --> 00:34:21,427
Or did Sam
just kill them?
884
00:34:21,460 --> 00:34:25,231
No! Nobody else
would touch these kids.
885
00:34:25,264 --> 00:34:27,199
Well, somebody touched Megan
Rose with a cheese grater.
886
00:34:27,233 --> 00:34:30,136
What are you talking about?
887
00:34:31,203 --> 00:34:33,172
This is Megan Rose's blood,
and it damn sure
888
00:34:33,205 --> 00:34:34,673
ain't six months old.
889
00:34:34,706 --> 00:34:36,642
She was in your home
the week Jamie died.
890
00:34:36,675 --> 00:34:38,110
Did she see Sam kill him?
891
00:34:38,144 --> 00:34:39,378
I swear,
Megan was gone.
892
00:34:39,411 --> 00:34:41,647
Or maybe she came back,
I don't know!
893
00:34:41,680 --> 00:34:44,116
I work so many hours
at the store...
894
00:34:44,150 --> 00:34:46,352
If she came back,
where is she now?
895
00:34:49,655 --> 00:34:52,391
You're trying to get me
to hurt Sam, but I won't.
896
00:34:52,424 --> 00:34:53,492
Just tell us where Megan is!
897
00:34:53,525 --> 00:34:55,361
I said I don't know!
898
00:34:57,696 --> 00:34:59,598
FIN:
That's Megan.
Remember her now?
899
00:35:01,367 --> 00:35:02,268
She was in your home, Sam,
900
00:35:02,301 --> 00:35:04,703
maybe for a night,
maybe for just an hour
901
00:35:04,736 --> 00:35:06,338
but her blood says
she was there.
902
00:35:06,372 --> 00:35:09,241
Did you kill her, Sam?
903
00:35:09,275 --> 00:35:11,310
Come on! You're already
going down for murder,
904
00:35:11,343 --> 00:35:12,211
what have you got to lose?
905
00:35:12,244 --> 00:35:14,213
Tell me what happened!
906
00:35:14,246 --> 00:35:17,149
What are you hiding, Sam?
907
00:35:17,183 --> 00:35:18,217
Are you trying to protect her?
908
00:35:18,250 --> 00:35:19,485
Did she kill Jamie?
909
00:35:19,518 --> 00:35:21,253
No!
910
00:35:21,287 --> 00:35:24,223
Then help me find her.
She's just a kid.
911
00:35:28,227 --> 00:35:29,828
St. Columba's.
912
00:35:29,861 --> 00:35:32,231
The psych home?
913
00:35:33,665 --> 00:35:34,833
She went crazy.
914
00:35:38,237 --> 00:35:41,773
WOMAN:
Megan was brought here
three weeks ago.
915
00:35:41,807 --> 00:35:43,909
She was kicking and
screaming at the staff,
916
00:35:43,942 --> 00:35:45,511
raving about
murdered children.
917
00:35:45,544 --> 00:35:46,578
What did you
do with her?
918
00:35:46,612 --> 00:35:48,647
Diagnosed her as
acutely psychotic
919
00:35:48,680 --> 00:35:50,316
with paranoid features.
920
00:35:50,349 --> 00:35:51,883
We sedated her with Haldol,
921
00:35:51,917 --> 00:35:53,919
waited for the
psychosis to break.
922
00:35:53,952 --> 00:35:56,755
Unfortunately, as soon as
the medication wore off,
923
00:35:56,788 --> 00:36:00,392
the delusions returned and
we had to sedate her again.
924
00:36:00,426 --> 00:36:01,560
How's she doing?
925
00:36:01,593 --> 00:36:04,330
Quieter. We've
reduced the dosage.
926
00:36:04,363 --> 00:36:06,232
But her foster agency
doesn't want her back,
927
00:36:06,265 --> 00:36:07,499
and I doubt
anyone else will,
928
00:36:07,533 --> 00:36:08,667
so it looks like
929
00:36:08,700 --> 00:36:10,302
she's set for
a long stay.
930
00:36:10,336 --> 00:36:12,804
Any chance
she was telling the truth?
931
00:36:12,838 --> 00:36:14,340
No, she had clearly
decompensated.
932
00:36:14,373 --> 00:36:16,575
The foster parent
who brought her in told us
933
00:36:16,608 --> 00:36:18,310
she would mutilate herself
934
00:36:18,344 --> 00:36:20,246
and that these
psychotic episodes
935
00:36:20,279 --> 00:36:21,680
had become
increasingly frequent.
936
00:36:21,713 --> 00:36:24,350
The foster parent--
her name Lori-Ann?
937
00:36:24,383 --> 00:36:25,984
Yeah.
938
00:36:26,017 --> 00:36:27,386
You should've
listened to Megan.
939
00:36:27,419 --> 00:36:28,920
She was brought in here
the night
940
00:36:28,954 --> 00:36:31,723
her six-year-old foster brother
was murdered.
941
00:36:37,463 --> 00:36:39,998
Megan...
942
00:36:40,031 --> 00:36:42,268
My name is Fin.
I'm a cop.
943
00:36:42,301 --> 00:36:44,236
I want to talk to
you about Jamie.
944
00:36:44,270 --> 00:36:46,338
Get away from me.
945
00:36:46,372 --> 00:36:48,274
We know he's dead, Megan.
946
00:36:48,307 --> 00:36:50,242
Megan, get back into bed.
You stay out of this.
947
00:36:50,276 --> 00:36:51,943
Get away from me!
You leave me alone!
948
00:36:51,977 --> 00:36:53,512
I'm not going to hurt you.
Yes, you are.
949
00:36:53,545 --> 00:36:54,746
You're trying to trick me!
950
00:36:54,780 --> 00:36:56,282
You're gonna stick me
with needles!
951
00:36:56,315 --> 00:36:57,283
No, I'm not.
952
00:36:57,316 --> 00:36:59,351
I know you're
telling the truth.
953
00:36:59,385 --> 00:37:01,887
I know who
cut your face.
954
00:37:01,920 --> 00:37:03,855
She said I was crazy.
955
00:37:03,889 --> 00:37:04,990
You're not crazy.
956
00:37:05,023 --> 00:37:06,692
You saw
what happened to Jamie.
957
00:37:06,725 --> 00:37:08,960
( sobbing )
958
00:37:15,634 --> 00:37:17,969
Tell me.
959
00:37:18,003 --> 00:37:22,308
That night,
were you in Jamie's room?
960
00:37:22,341 --> 00:37:24,376
Yes.
961
00:37:24,410 --> 00:37:26,378
Was Sam?
962
00:37:26,412 --> 00:37:28,447
No.
963
00:37:28,480 --> 00:37:30,816
Who was it?
964
00:37:30,849 --> 00:37:33,885
I can't. I can't.
965
00:37:33,919 --> 00:37:35,987
I promise no one will hurt you.
966
00:37:37,723 --> 00:37:39,791
Who was it?
967
00:37:43,429 --> 00:37:46,498
Lori-Ann.
968
00:37:47,666 --> 00:37:49,535
Tell me what happened, baby.
969
00:37:52,738 --> 00:37:58,344
Jamie was crying and crying,
and then he just stopped.
970
00:37:58,377 --> 00:38:01,513
So I went in his room
and I saw her.
971
00:38:01,547 --> 00:38:03,849
She was covering his face
with a pillow,
972
00:38:03,882 --> 00:38:07,353
screaming "Shut up! Shut up!"
973
00:38:07,386 --> 00:38:12,958
He was fighting, but he just
wasn't strong enough.
974
00:38:12,991 --> 00:38:15,561
Then he just stopped moving.
975
00:38:20,999 --> 00:38:22,401
Come on.
976
00:38:30,476 --> 00:38:31,677
Where are you
taking her?
977
00:38:31,710 --> 00:38:33,579
Away from this place.
978
00:38:38,116 --> 00:38:39,651
Got good news.
979
00:38:39,685 --> 00:38:41,086
We found Megan.
980
00:38:41,119 --> 00:38:43,088
Yeah, that is good news.
981
00:38:43,121 --> 00:38:44,723
Is she okay?
982
00:38:44,756 --> 00:38:45,757
Oh, yeah,
she's doing fine.
983
00:38:45,791 --> 00:38:47,426
That's pretty slick:
984
00:38:47,459 --> 00:38:50,028
hiding a murder witness
in a loony bin,
985
00:38:50,061 --> 00:38:51,963
telling them
she was a psycho.
986
00:38:51,997 --> 00:38:53,599
Yeah, well, obviously,
the girl is disturbed.
987
00:38:53,632 --> 00:38:54,600
She not
that disturbed.
988
00:38:54,633 --> 00:38:57,369
She told me what happened.
989
00:38:57,403 --> 00:38:58,770
Said she saw you
990
00:38:58,804 --> 00:39:01,607
kill Jamie.
Well, she's lying.
991
00:39:01,640 --> 00:39:03,675
Who you think
a jury's gonna believe:
992
00:39:03,709 --> 00:39:06,778
me... or some
teenage delinquent?
993
00:39:06,812 --> 00:39:07,879
After they see
994
00:39:07,913 --> 00:39:08,947
how you cut her face,
995
00:39:08,980 --> 00:39:10,115
I think they're gonna
believe her.
996
00:39:10,148 --> 00:39:11,583
She cut herself, okay?
997
00:39:11,617 --> 00:39:13,619
She's psychotic.
998
00:39:13,652 --> 00:39:15,587
And Jamie
smothered himself, too.
999
00:39:15,621 --> 00:39:17,756
No, my loser husband
did that.
1000
00:39:17,789 --> 00:39:19,825
And I've heard enough.
I'm going home.
1001
00:39:22,828 --> 00:39:24,763
Sam...
1002
00:39:26,498 --> 00:39:27,999
What're you doing here?
1003
00:39:28,033 --> 00:39:30,402
I watched you
through that window.
1004
00:39:30,436 --> 00:39:32,404
You told me it
was an accident.
1005
00:39:32,438 --> 00:39:35,607
You did it.
You confessed.
1006
00:39:35,641 --> 00:39:36,808
No!
1007
00:39:36,842 --> 00:39:38,176
I could never
have hurt Jamie.
1008
00:39:38,209 --> 00:39:40,412
I wanted him to be our son!
1009
00:39:42,481 --> 00:39:44,149
You killed him.
1010
00:39:44,182 --> 00:39:45,617
Don't you do
this to me, Sam.
1011
00:39:45,651 --> 00:39:47,118
I'm not going to
protect you anymore.
1012
00:39:47,152 --> 00:39:48,954
Protect me?!
You never protected me!
1013
00:39:48,987 --> 00:39:50,121
You promised me
1014
00:39:50,155 --> 00:39:52,858
everything
and you gave me nothing!
1015
00:39:52,891 --> 00:39:54,993
I've wasted my life on you!
1016
00:39:57,863 --> 00:40:01,199
I loved you, Lori-Ann.
1017
00:40:01,232 --> 00:40:02,801
I believed your lies.
1018
00:40:04,770 --> 00:40:06,037
I let you
hurt those kids.
1019
00:40:06,071 --> 00:40:07,639
You weak son of a bitch!
1020
00:40:10,676 --> 00:40:13,745
You don't give a damn
about anyone.
1021
00:40:15,180 --> 00:40:17,449
MUNCH:
Lori-Ann Dufoy,
you are under arrest
1022
00:40:17,483 --> 00:40:18,850
for the murder
of Jamie Semple.
1023
00:40:18,884 --> 00:40:20,686
You have the right
to remain silent.
1024
00:40:20,719 --> 00:40:22,187
You have the right
to an attorney...
1025
00:40:23,188 --> 00:40:24,823
You okay?
1026
00:40:24,856 --> 00:40:26,992
I'm cool.
