1
00:01:55,822 --> 00:02:00,535
# With no warmth inside
we surely will shiver
2
00:02:03,246 --> 00:02:07,834
# So we sleep
We sleep so satisfied
3
00:02:10,628 --> 00:02:14,298
# Lay down, lay down, lay down
Down and feed
4
00:02:14,382 --> 00:02:17,927
# Lay down, lay down, lay down
Down and feed
5
00:02:18,010 --> 00:02:20,346
# Lay down, lay down, lay down
6
00:02:20,429 --> 00:02:23,349
# And feed the fire
7
00:02:24,767 --> 00:02:28,520
# Lay down, lay down, lay down
Down and feed
8
00:02:29,855 --> 00:02:34,609
# Think I'm lost
with all your promises
9
00:02:37,028 --> 00:02:41,950
# Think I act strange
when you talk to me
10
00:02:51,292 --> 00:02:54,003
Oh, that's gonna kill you.
11
00:02:59,008 --> 00:03:00,926
...represent concepts.
Now, what you're...
12
00:03:01,010 --> 00:03:03,054
I'm sorry. Could you tell me where
the chief of staff's office is, please?
13
00:03:03,137 --> 00:03:06,473
- Sure. Up the stairs and to your left.
- Up the stairs. Thanks.
14
00:03:06,557 --> 00:03:09,560
The one nearest the front door
at the crossing represents justice.
15
00:03:13,147 --> 00:03:15,524
- Hi.
- Hi.
- I'm Rick Hayes.
16
00:03:15,607 --> 00:03:18,068
- I'm here to see John Hayes.
- Oh, you're John's brother.
17
00:03:18,151 --> 00:03:19,903
Yeah, among other things.
18
00:03:19,987 --> 00:03:22,364
- Louise, John's brother is here.
- Okay.
19
00:03:24,574 --> 00:03:27,494
- He's right here in the conference room.
- Great.
20
00:03:29,204 --> 00:03:31,581
We should take each case
on its merits.
21
00:03:31,664 --> 00:03:33,792
Now, we have restricted
out-of-state travel...
22
00:03:33,875 --> 00:03:36,336
and we've delayed the purchase
of new state vehicles.
23
00:03:36,419 --> 00:03:39,464
It doesn't sound like enough.
We have to trim ten million...
24
00:03:39,547 --> 00:03:43,217
from department spending over
the next fiscal year. John?
25
00:03:43,301 --> 00:03:48,931
I've requested the department trim
five percent across the board,
except for education.
26
00:03:49,015 --> 00:03:51,600
Okay. But we're gonna have to
find some additional measures.
27
00:03:51,684 --> 00:03:53,936
Cutbacks? With an election
next year, it might...
28
00:03:54,019 --> 00:03:56,814
You want the tooth fairy to come,
you're gonna have to put some teeth
under the pillow.
29
00:03:56,897 --> 00:03:59,817
Agreed. With what we've done,
we're now in a position to take stock...
30
00:03:59,900 --> 00:04:02,945
make our judgments regarding
the staffing and expenditures...
31
00:04:03,028 --> 00:04:05,864
and we will take a long, hard,
critical look at all...
32
00:04:15,707 --> 00:04:19,294
I'm just trying to figure out what kind of
idiot shows up his first day of work...
33
00:04:19,377 --> 00:04:21,629
late and stinking of wine.
34
00:04:21,713 --> 00:04:23,965
I guess now you know.
35
00:04:24,048 --> 00:04:26,634
You wanna try to explain
your resume?
36
00:04:26,718 --> 00:04:30,054
- What do you mean?
- Well, you went to law school.
Did pretty well.
37
00:04:30,138 --> 00:04:34,392
Worked for Hayes Development for
three years. Working for your old man?
38
00:04:34,475 --> 00:04:36,394
- On and off.
- Mmm.
39
00:04:36,477 --> 00:04:40,189
And then there's this gaping hole.
40
00:04:40,272 --> 00:04:42,233
What have you been doing with
yourself for the last two years?
41
00:04:42,316 --> 00:04:46,487
Well, my father passed away. Maybe you
know. I helped settle his affairs.
42
00:04:48,405 --> 00:04:50,365
And after that?
43
00:04:50,449 --> 00:04:56,038
Um, well, after that I, uh, I did
some travelling and I, I just
tried some different things.
44
00:04:56,121 --> 00:04:58,165
Partied for two years.
45
00:04:58,248 --> 00:05:00,792
Well, call it what you want.
46
00:05:00,876 --> 00:05:04,921
Okay. What do you want to do?
47
00:05:05,005 --> 00:05:07,841
- What do I wanna do?
- Hell, it's your call.
48
00:05:07,924 --> 00:05:11,678
Your brother's
the governor's chief of staff.
49
00:05:11,761 --> 00:05:14,013
Well, um...
50
00:05:14,097 --> 00:05:19,560
Well, while you think about it, I'll get you
a desk and a subscription to Playboy.
51
00:05:19,644 --> 00:05:24,398
Of course, if you're interested in actually
working, I'm up to my butt here.
52
00:05:24,482 --> 00:05:26,358
Yeah, I'd like to give it a try.
53
00:05:29,612 --> 00:05:32,865
You know anything about this office?
You know what clemency is?
54
00:05:32,948 --> 00:05:35,284
Yeah, it's the power to pardon
people, commute sentences.
55
00:05:35,367 --> 00:05:37,953
- Whose power?
- I believe, the governor's.
56
00:05:38,036 --> 00:05:41,873
In this state, his sole power.
He makes the final decision.
57
00:05:41,957 --> 00:05:46,670
The Clemency Office makes
recommendations, but we're not here
to retry the case.
58
00:05:46,753 --> 00:05:50,548
This is about mercy.
Has the prisoner rehabilitated himself?
59
00:05:50,632 --> 00:05:53,343
Will solid citizens
speak out on his behalf?
60
00:05:53,426 --> 00:05:55,845
Does his own mother
have anything good to say?
61
00:05:55,929 --> 00:06:00,475
- Will I get some kind of training for this?
- Yeah, by doing it.
62
00:06:00,558 --> 00:06:04,312
Well, this is it...
124 pending cases.
63
00:06:04,395 --> 00:06:06,898
Everything from tax fraud
to murder.
64
00:06:06,981 --> 00:06:08,941
Wow. How do you keep on top
of all of it?
65
00:06:09,025 --> 00:06:11,610
You don't. You prioritize.
66
00:06:11,694 --> 00:06:14,363
I've got death warrants
coming down any day.
67
00:06:14,447 --> 00:06:16,907
Obviously they come first.
68
00:06:16,991 --> 00:06:20,869
Every time a death warrant is issued or
reissued, we have to make a new report.
69
00:06:20,953 --> 00:06:24,790
- You know anything about John Reese?
- Uh, yeah, John Reese.
70
00:06:24,873 --> 00:06:28,627
That's the cop killer who pleaded
self-defence, right? I saw him
on 60 Minutes
71
00:06:28,710 --> 00:06:31,671
Right. Yeah. Big celebrity.
Even wrote a book.
72
00:06:31,755 --> 00:06:35,175
Every time I see him, he gives me one.
Couldn't get through the damn thing.
73
00:06:35,258 --> 00:06:39,346
- Well, great. I'll take Reese.
- No, I've already got that one started.
74
00:06:40,513 --> 00:06:43,475
Take Cindy Liggett.
Look through her file.
75
00:06:47,145 --> 00:06:50,440
- It's a death penalty case?
- Yep.
76
00:06:50,523 --> 00:06:53,192
- Get your dick wet with Liggett.
- Okay.
77
00:06:53,276 --> 00:06:57,196
Helen'll get you a desk and a Playboy
if you change your mind.
78
00:07:03,953 --> 00:07:06,872
- Slow down, slow down.
- All right.
79
00:07:06,955 --> 00:07:09,041
Are we there?
80
00:07:09,124 --> 00:07:11,543
All right. Okay.
81
00:07:13,128 --> 00:07:15,172
Well, what do you think?
It's not bad, huh?
82
00:07:15,255 --> 00:07:17,632
Bedroom, bathroom,
office area up there...
83
00:07:17,716 --> 00:07:20,719
and gourmet kitchen
and swimming pool.
84
00:07:22,262 --> 00:07:24,973
Never know who you'll meet
down there.
85
00:07:25,056 --> 00:07:28,268
- And I got you into the tennis club.
- What's this?
86
00:07:28,351 --> 00:07:31,229
- Oh, you'll be needing that.
- I got a tux.
87
00:07:31,312 --> 00:07:33,606
It's an Armani.
88
00:07:33,690 --> 00:07:36,734
I thought the days of profligate
spending were over, John.
89
00:07:36,818 --> 00:07:39,237
Oh, don't worry about it. You're in the
majors now, you gotta look the part.
90
00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:42,073
Okay. Thanks.
91
00:07:42,156 --> 00:07:44,325
Ah, don't look like somebody
slammed your nuts in the door.
92
00:07:44,408 --> 00:07:46,327
- It's... It's gonna be good.
- I know.
93
00:07:46,410 --> 00:07:47,995
- Wait and see.
- I know.
94
00:07:48,079 --> 00:07:50,623
Listen, it doesn't mean
the party's over.
95
00:07:50,706 --> 00:07:52,625
It's just a better class of guests.
96
00:08:52,974 --> 00:08:57,312
Well, you know, her crimes, you don't
think of a woman committing
a crime like that.
97
00:08:57,395 --> 00:08:59,481
I mean, I don't, anyway.
That... That brutal.
98
00:08:59,564 --> 00:09:02,567
Most of the time a woman kills,
it's a crime of passion.
99
00:09:02,650 --> 00:09:05,612
Usually her husband
or her boyfriend.
100
00:09:05,695 --> 00:09:09,240
And last time she got a stay of execution
with about four days left.
101
00:09:09,324 --> 00:09:12,577
- Well, when was that?
- About 18 months ago.
102
00:09:12,660 --> 00:09:14,745
It's all a delaying game, really.
103
00:09:14,829 --> 00:09:17,123
They come up with some new
constitutional theory...
104
00:09:17,206 --> 00:09:21,919
and find a sympathetic judge to grant
a stay, then they start appealing
all over again.
105
00:09:22,002 --> 00:09:24,380
Right, and they just
stretch it out indefinitely.
106
00:09:24,463 --> 00:09:28,926
Well, no, not this time.
It looks like she's run out of arguments.
107
00:09:29,009 --> 00:09:32,304
- And a lot more women
are gonna be executed now.
- Why's that?
108
00:09:32,387 --> 00:09:37,309
Women's lobby. They all want equal
treatment in the eyes of the law.
109
00:10:10,716 --> 00:10:13,469
- Hey, Frances, what's up?
- Where you goin', girl?
110
00:10:13,552 --> 00:10:16,013
What's goin' on?
111
00:10:16,096 --> 00:10:19,433
- Hey, Frances!
- I'll tell you something now.
Don't be like that, Frances.
112
00:10:19,516 --> 00:10:23,312
- Frances!
- Hey, Cindy, you checkin' out
of death row?
113
00:10:23,395 --> 00:10:27,149
- You don't like it here?
- Hey. Hey!
114
00:10:27,232 --> 00:10:29,985
...somebody. He don't need
to know my personal life.
115
00:10:30,068 --> 00:10:33,655
I have my own life, and just because I have
a kid don't mean my life needs to stop...
116
00:10:33,738 --> 00:10:35,657
and I need to stop
what I need to do.
117
00:10:35,740 --> 00:10:37,700
She ain't the only one raising him.
The father raises him too.
118
00:10:37,784 --> 00:10:39,452
Oh, yeah. On the weekends he...
119
00:10:41,246 --> 00:10:44,499
And that's my business.
That's my time now.
120
00:10:44,582 --> 00:10:46,918
How 'bout self-respect?
121
00:10:49,003 --> 00:10:52,840
Every dollar you have, these sweet
and innocent-looking girls...
122
00:10:52,923 --> 00:10:57,261
shamelessly tell us
they are money hungry and...
123
00:10:57,344 --> 00:11:01,098
I'm Rick Hayes. I'm with the Clemency
Board. Would you like to have a seat?
124
00:11:03,267 --> 00:11:07,229
I'm gonna be working on your report,
the update, so we need to...
125
00:11:07,312 --> 00:11:09,606
- No.
- No?
126
00:11:09,690 --> 00:11:12,693
No, we don't need
to do anything.
127
00:11:12,776 --> 00:11:15,987
- Well, what do you mean?
- I'm not playin' your game.
128
00:11:18,657 --> 00:11:21,034
Um, l...
Well, I don't understand.
129
00:11:21,117 --> 00:11:24,621
It's one big, sick fuckin' joke.
130
00:11:24,704 --> 00:11:28,041
- How's that?
- This governor doesn't give clemency.
131
00:11:29,876 --> 00:11:33,379
Well, uh... What is it
that you're saying here?
132
00:11:33,463 --> 00:11:36,132
I'm saying you go ahead
and you make your damn report...
133
00:11:36,215 --> 00:11:39,302
then you give it to the governor and you
let him give it serious consideration...
134
00:11:39,385 --> 00:11:42,138
then you can all go ahead and
kill me with a clear conscience.
135
00:11:44,432 --> 00:11:47,351
Miss Liggett, maybe you can explain
to me... what is it that you have to lose?
136
00:11:47,434 --> 00:11:50,646
I mean, there is really no good
reason for you not to cooperate.
137
00:11:50,729 --> 00:11:53,148
Just give us something we can work with
here. There's gotta be a...
138
00:11:53,232 --> 00:11:56,568
I'm very, very proud of my 17-year-old
'cause she works and goes to school...
139
00:11:56,652 --> 00:11:59,946
What'd you say your name was?
Rick?
140
00:12:00,030 --> 00:12:02,449
- Right.
- What's that short for?
141
00:12:02,532 --> 00:12:04,784
- Eric? Richard?
- Richard, yeah.
142
00:12:04,868 --> 00:12:09,164
- Mm-hmm. So, what's wrong
with Richard?
- What's wrong with Rick?
143
00:12:09,247 --> 00:12:13,668
Every Rick I ever knew was a slick,
two-faced motherfucker.
144
00:12:13,751 --> 00:12:17,213
- I know quite a few.
- Well, you just met one who isn't.
145
00:12:17,297 --> 00:12:22,093
That's the first thing every slick,
two-faced motherfucker tells you.
146
00:12:22,176 --> 00:12:24,136
All right, Miss Liggett.
147
00:12:25,179 --> 00:12:27,098
Frances.
148
00:12:27,181 --> 00:12:30,226
Wanna know what the second
thing they say is?
149
00:12:30,309 --> 00:12:32,520
What do you got to lose?
150
00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:38,275
- You should really think about this.
- I have.
151
00:12:38,359 --> 00:12:40,277
For about 12 years.
152
00:12:43,947 --> 00:12:47,200
You take care of yourself, Rick.
153
00:12:47,284 --> 00:12:50,620
Gotta bust out some cash, anything.
I don't care what it is.
154
00:12:50,704 --> 00:12:53,456
- What kind of presents do you get?
- Gold.
155
00:12:53,540 --> 00:12:55,458
I got a bedroom set,
a TV, stereo...
156
00:12:55,542 --> 00:12:57,210
- You got a bedroom set?
- Mm-hmm.
157
00:12:57,293 --> 00:12:59,629
- Did your mom ask you where
it came from?
- No.
158
00:12:59,712 --> 00:13:02,924
Well, we don't need
her cooperation anyway.
159
00:13:03,007 --> 00:13:07,470
- What do you mean?
- The report's required, with or without it.
160
00:13:09,180 --> 00:13:11,682
Oh, man, she is a pisser.
161
00:13:13,726 --> 00:13:17,104
- Sounds like she sure as hell
had your number.
- Yeah.
162
00:13:38,792 --> 00:13:41,211
- Rick, come on.
- Hey, John.
- Hey, Emerson. How are you?
163
00:13:41,294 --> 00:13:43,546
- Hi.
- Lobbyist.
164
00:13:43,630 --> 00:13:45,548
- For what?
- Oil companies.
165
00:13:45,632 --> 00:13:47,258
Oh.
166
00:13:47,342 --> 00:13:49,886
- The Brothers Hayes.
- Governor.
167
00:13:49,969 --> 00:13:52,013
- John.
- My brother Rick.
- How are you, sir?
168
00:13:52,096 --> 00:13:54,015
- Rick. Of course.
- Yes.
169
00:13:54,098 --> 00:13:56,017
- Mrs Governor.
- Tom.
- Nice to meet you.
170
00:13:56,100 --> 00:13:58,019
In the governor's business
we call this a "meet and greet."
171
00:13:58,102 --> 00:14:00,271
Well, it wouldn't be hard
to get used to.
172
00:14:00,354 --> 00:14:03,691
Bart, stay right where you are.
Don't have too much fun now, fellas.
173
00:14:03,774 --> 00:14:06,610
The guy's in perpetual motion.
He's incredible.
174
00:14:06,694 --> 00:14:11,031
Hey, you know, I've been glancing at the
files. He's never granted clemency, huh?
175
00:14:11,115 --> 00:14:14,368
- No, not true. No. We've granted
15 pardons since I've been here...
- Yeah?
176
00:14:14,451 --> 00:14:16,370
- And scores of sentence reductions.
- Never in a capital case.
177
00:14:16,453 --> 00:14:19,706
No, not in a state where 76 percent of
the voters favour the death penalty.
178
00:14:19,790 --> 00:14:22,084
Well, then why the hell did you
put me in a goddam useless job?
179
00:14:22,167 --> 00:14:24,711
Oh, I figured if you messed up,
you couldn't do much damage.
180
00:14:24,795 --> 00:14:27,214
Well, you're just a condescending
son of a bitch. Why is that?
181
00:14:27,297 --> 00:14:29,758
- Oh, relax. Listen.
- No, no, I'm...
- If things work out...
182
00:14:29,841 --> 00:14:31,468
- Hi there, you guys.
- There's an opening in the press office,
the first of the year.
183
00:14:31,551 --> 00:14:35,263
- Ladies, ladies!
- Rick, this is my friend Jill Venable.
184
00:14:35,346 --> 00:14:37,891
- And Jill, you know John, of course.
- Everyone knows John, of course.
185
00:14:37,974 --> 00:14:40,226
- Hi, Jill.
- Hey, yeah, I know you.
186
00:14:40,310 --> 00:14:43,229
- You used to live down the street from us
on Oakmont, right?
- That's right.
187
00:14:43,312 --> 00:14:47,066
- She's almost the girl next door.
- That's sounds terrible.
188
00:14:47,149 --> 00:14:50,361
- I don't remember you being so cute.
- Oh, well, thanks.
189
00:14:50,444 --> 00:14:53,739
- I've been working on it.
- Well, it sure makes my job a lot easier.
190
00:14:53,823 --> 00:14:56,158
- Your job, huh?
- Yeah, I'm supposed to take you around...
191
00:14:56,242 --> 00:14:59,078
and introduce you to people
of power and influence.
192
00:14:59,161 --> 00:15:02,539
Oh, I see. Big brother's
looking out for me again?
193
00:15:02,623 --> 00:15:05,542
Oh, we can start with a few corrupt
committee chairmen,
work our way down.
194
00:15:05,626 --> 00:15:08,170
Ah, none of that. Let's get a couple
of drinks and have a chat.
195
00:15:12,507 --> 00:15:16,595
- Do you think your parking space
could've been further away?
- That's what I said. The...
196
00:15:16,678 --> 00:15:19,014
- Is this it?
- Yeah, it's right here.
197
00:15:25,603 --> 00:15:31,150
- Ohh. John must have found
this place for you.
- How could you possibly guess?
198
00:15:31,234 --> 00:15:34,779
'Cause he's been here seven years
and still rents his furniture.
199
00:15:34,862 --> 00:15:37,073
- We used to go out.
- Oh?
200
00:15:37,156 --> 00:15:40,326
We're just friends now.
My decision.
201
00:15:40,409 --> 00:15:43,621
I haven't had a chance to stock the bar
or unpack glasses, but I got some beer.
202
00:15:43,704 --> 00:15:46,790
Great.
203
00:15:46,874 --> 00:15:49,877
Haven't even had a chance to unpack
the stereo, unfortunately.
204
00:15:49,960 --> 00:15:52,588
No drinks, no music.
205
00:15:52,671 --> 00:15:54,798
How do you expect to make
any progress?
206
00:15:54,881 --> 00:16:00,512
Well, l-I don't know. I guess I'll, uh, just
have to rely on some personal charm.
207
00:16:00,595 --> 00:16:02,556
You might be in trouble.
208
00:16:04,057 --> 00:16:07,060
Well, I could hum something.
209
00:16:07,143 --> 00:16:09,145
What would you like to hear?
210
00:16:09,229 --> 00:16:12,232
How about Beethoven's Ninth?
211
00:16:12,315 --> 00:16:15,777
- That's a lot to ask on a first date.
- Well, I expect a lot.
212
00:16:25,786 --> 00:16:27,705
Sorry.
213
00:16:27,788 --> 00:16:29,707
My God, what is that?
214
00:16:29,790 --> 00:16:32,251
I'm sorry. This is a case
I'm working on.
215
00:16:34,294 --> 00:16:37,172
What's the matter, you don't come across
stuff like that in Consumer Affairs?
216
00:16:37,256 --> 00:16:39,174
Uh, no.
217
00:16:42,511 --> 00:16:46,431
- You got that?
- Okay, go on.
218
00:16:46,515 --> 00:16:49,351
Write him I'm looking forward to when
he's on leave from the Marines...
219
00:16:49,434 --> 00:16:52,437
so he can take me to that club
he wrote me about...
220
00:16:52,520 --> 00:16:54,939
that Waikiki bar
in Honolulu, Hawaii.
221
00:16:55,023 --> 00:16:57,692
- Hey, slow down.
- Honolulu?
222
00:16:57,775 --> 00:17:01,904
- Child, what you talkin' about?
- Your pen pal said he's gonna
take you to Hawaii?
223
00:17:01,988 --> 00:17:04,532
He's stationed in Korea, girl.
It ain't that far to go.
224
00:17:04,615 --> 00:17:08,411
He said he gonna marry me
and have a big party there,
cause he know the owner.
225
00:17:08,494 --> 00:17:11,205
Oh, yeah?
You're so full of shit.
226
00:17:11,289 --> 00:17:13,958
- Did you tell him about
your other husband?
- Bitch, shut up.
227
00:17:14,041 --> 00:17:19,630
Meet... you... in...
Honolu...
228
00:17:21,298 --> 00:17:24,718
Is that two O's and two U's?
229
00:17:43,653 --> 00:17:48,157
- I'm right here for you, girl.
- Let's just finish the letter.
230
00:17:49,659 --> 00:17:51,994
Go on!
231
00:17:56,290 --> 00:17:57,750
- Sam, good morning.
- Good morning.
232
00:17:57,833 --> 00:18:00,419
Um, look, l-I've been
looking at this Liggett file.
233
00:18:00,503 --> 00:18:02,963
L-I'd like to go back and see if
I can get her to work with us.
234
00:18:03,047 --> 00:18:05,758
Oh. So now it's
a matter of pride, huh?
235
00:18:05,841 --> 00:18:09,303
No, no, no, I just... I think it's the only way
we're gonna get anything new.
236
00:18:09,386 --> 00:18:14,183
You're wasting your time, Rick.
You've got two dozen people
to reinterview for the update.
237
00:18:14,266 --> 00:18:16,184
But they're all gonna say
the same thing, no?
238
00:18:16,268 --> 00:18:18,478
You're not gonna get anything
out of Liggett.
239
00:18:18,562 --> 00:18:21,440
She's making her stand.
I've been through this before.
240
00:18:21,523 --> 00:18:23,275
Well, Sam, I'd at least
like to try.
241
00:18:23,358 --> 00:18:26,236
Of course you would.
Everyone does the first time.
242
00:18:26,319 --> 00:18:28,238
It's called
the rescuer syndrome.
243
00:18:28,321 --> 00:18:30,990
That's great. I'm on the job three days,
I got a syndrome.
244
00:18:31,074 --> 00:18:34,953
She won't deal with you. They served
her death warrant last night.
245
00:18:35,036 --> 00:18:37,163
Execution's in 30 days.
246
00:18:49,884 --> 00:18:52,970
- I got five more minutes.
- Visitor.
247
00:18:53,053 --> 00:18:56,307
- Today?
- Someone from Clemency.
248
00:18:56,390 --> 00:19:00,644
- Tell him I don't wanna see him.
- Hey, I'm not your social secretary.
Come on.
249
00:19:06,066 --> 00:19:07,984
You know you are.
250
00:19:12,739 --> 00:19:17,077
This is your last clemency report.
Open it up, take a look.
251
00:19:18,536 --> 00:19:21,497
No, huh? I'll do it for you.
252
00:19:21,581 --> 00:19:24,751
You just look at the cover page, okay?
That's all. Just the cover page.
253
00:19:29,881 --> 00:19:33,759
You see what it says under
"recommendation"? "Deny clemency."
254
00:19:33,843 --> 00:19:35,845
- I can read.
- Yeah? Well, that might as
well read "Let's kill her."
255
00:19:35,928 --> 00:19:39,181
Now, you know why it says that?
Because you ain't give 'em anything.
256
00:19:39,265 --> 00:19:43,519
- They had nothing to work with.
- How long you had this job?
257
00:19:43,602 --> 00:19:45,396
Four days.
258
00:19:45,479 --> 00:19:47,773
So basically,
you don't know jack shit.
259
00:19:47,856 --> 00:19:50,525
That's right. I don't know why you're not
a good candidate for clemency.
260
00:19:50,609 --> 00:19:53,528
Now, maybe if I had more experience
I'd just give up and write you off as well.
261
00:19:53,612 --> 00:19:56,448
You probably think you know
everything about me.
262
00:19:56,531 --> 00:19:58,867
I know what's in that file.
263
00:19:58,950 --> 00:20:01,119
Look, even if I get clemency...
264
00:20:01,202 --> 00:20:05,165
it means life in here with no parole,
and that's no life.
265
00:20:05,248 --> 00:20:08,042
I'm not beggin' for mercy
I'm not gonna get.
266
00:20:08,126 --> 00:20:10,753
You think I wanna die?
I do not wanna die. Okay?
267
00:20:10,837 --> 00:20:14,215
- Well...
- But if I do, it's gonna be on my terms.
268
00:20:14,298 --> 00:20:18,803
You got that? My terms.
That's all I got.
269
00:20:20,596 --> 00:20:22,640
Frances!
270
00:21:05,264 --> 00:21:08,809
They know how to harness Negroes
down south too, I hear.
271
00:21:08,893 --> 00:21:12,354
With a strap across their back.
Come on.
272
00:21:32,249 --> 00:21:35,085
Mmm. Hmm.
273
00:21:50,099 --> 00:21:53,102
Get out of my house. Get out
of here, you thievin' whore!
274
00:21:53,185 --> 00:21:55,604
Get out of my house, damn you!
275
00:21:55,688 --> 00:21:57,732
Hey! What the fu...
276
00:22:11,411 --> 00:22:13,330
Cindy!
277
00:22:22,255 --> 00:22:25,258
Reg? Reggie?
278
00:22:28,470 --> 00:22:30,096
Reg, you awake?
279
00:22:36,018 --> 00:22:39,772
Reg? Reg?
280
00:23:35,326 --> 00:23:39,830
Untamed youth with one thing on
their minds... Barq's Root Beer.
281
00:23:39,913 --> 00:23:41,915
I know that you were
involved in her appeals.
282
00:23:41,999 --> 00:23:44,084
That's right, and I assisted
Ed Duffy at the trial.
283
00:23:44,168 --> 00:23:46,169
Listen, maybe we should
talk later. I got a hearing.
284
00:23:46,253 --> 00:23:48,922
Just a minute. Is there anybody
else I should be talking to?
285
00:23:49,006 --> 00:23:52,801
Her only family's a kid brother. It's been
a defence nightmare from day one.
286
00:23:52,884 --> 00:23:56,096
- That's because of the brutality
of the crime.
- That, yeah.
287
00:23:56,179 --> 00:23:58,765
And we only had nine days
to prepare for trial.
288
00:23:58,848 --> 00:24:02,143
Well, now, the girl... she, in
fact, knew her in school, yes?
289
00:24:02,227 --> 00:24:06,230
Yeah. And the boy was the son of none
other than of William J. McGuire.
290
00:24:06,314 --> 00:24:08,274
McGuire? What, construction?
291
00:24:08,358 --> 00:24:11,068
- Yeah. Hey.
- Hi, Linda.
- Listen.
292
00:24:11,152 --> 00:24:14,739
McGuire wanted her to get the death
penalty, and he lobbied like hell for it.
293
00:24:14,822 --> 00:24:16,782
- Huh.
- Listen, she got a tough break.
- Is there...
294
00:24:16,866 --> 00:24:18,701
But it wasn't like she would've
ever gotten the sympathy vote.
295
00:24:18,784 --> 00:24:21,704
Is there anybody out there with
anything good to say about her?
296
00:24:23,539 --> 00:24:25,708
Nobody I'd let
baby-sit my child.
297
00:24:27,876 --> 00:24:31,088
- You again.
- Me again.
298
00:24:31,171 --> 00:24:35,133
- Well, it gets me away from the TVs.
- TVs?
299
00:24:35,217 --> 00:24:37,177
Well, they got those TVs
down in the pod...
300
00:24:37,260 --> 00:24:40,680
blastin' game shows
and soap operas all day long.
301
00:24:40,764 --> 00:24:44,184
That's what I'd call cruel
and unusual punishment.
302
00:24:44,267 --> 00:24:46,353
Yeah. No question.
303
00:24:46,436 --> 00:24:50,482
Guess they figure by the time they get
around to killin' you, you'll be grateful.
304
00:24:50,565 --> 00:24:54,360
Well, I'm just glad you consider me
a notch up from that kind of torture.
305
00:24:54,444 --> 00:24:56,404
Just a notch.
306
00:24:58,448 --> 00:25:01,242
What do you want?
307
00:25:01,325 --> 00:25:03,661
Well, let's start with
some names, okay?
308
00:25:03,744 --> 00:25:07,790
Anybody out there with anything
good to say about you?
309
00:25:07,873 --> 00:25:10,918
When I was out in the free world,
there wasn't anything good about me.
310
00:25:12,419 --> 00:25:16,215
- You could talk to Reggie.
- Oh? Who's Reggie?
311
00:25:16,298 --> 00:25:20,344
She's my cell neighbour.
She killed both her husbands.
312
00:25:20,427 --> 00:25:25,348
By the time they were about to arrest her,
she was just about to marry
number three.
313
00:25:25,432 --> 00:25:29,019
Well, she... she might not make
the best character witness, uh...
314
00:25:33,106 --> 00:25:35,525
- What about your brother?
- Billy?
315
00:25:35,608 --> 00:25:38,695
I know he thinks I hate him,
but I don't.
316
00:25:38,778 --> 00:25:42,699
I just wasn't a very good sister.
I was runnin' wild.
317
00:25:42,782 --> 00:25:46,619
- Is he still in St. Charles?
- Last I heard.
318
00:25:46,702 --> 00:25:49,288
He's almost 22.
319
00:25:49,372 --> 00:25:51,749
His birthday's in April.
320
00:25:51,832 --> 00:25:54,627
Were you close?
321
00:25:54,710 --> 00:25:57,254
Well, we had different fathers.
322
00:25:57,338 --> 00:26:00,215
Neither one of us knew 'em.
323
00:26:00,299 --> 00:26:02,968
After my mama died,
it was just us.
324
00:26:03,052 --> 00:26:05,804
Yeah, you were, uh, what, 16?
325
00:26:07,264 --> 00:26:10,642
Yeah. She died two days
after my 16th birthday.
326
00:26:12,686 --> 00:26:14,729
What was she like?
327
00:26:16,815 --> 00:26:19,192
Pretty. Wild.
328
00:26:20,860 --> 00:26:24,781
When she was feelin' good,
she could be a lot of fun.
329
00:26:24,864 --> 00:26:27,200
She wasn't like
anybody's mama I knew.
330
00:26:27,283 --> 00:26:30,787
We were more like sisters,
I guess.
331
00:26:30,870 --> 00:26:35,750
She just couldn't stay clean. I guess
she passed that on to me.
332
00:26:35,833 --> 00:26:38,336
Now, what is it
you're drawing there?
333
00:26:43,883 --> 00:26:47,052
Oh. Well, sorry I asked.
334
00:26:47,136 --> 00:26:49,972
It say in my file
I take drawing lessons?
335
00:26:50,055 --> 00:26:52,599
- No, I don't think so.
- I do.
336
00:26:52,683 --> 00:26:57,020
Through the mail.
Helps me pass the time.
337
00:26:57,104 --> 00:26:59,815
You know, and every week they
give you something new to draw.
338
00:26:59,898 --> 00:27:01,858
This week it's castles.
339
00:27:03,360 --> 00:27:05,278
Takes me away.
340
00:27:11,242 --> 00:27:14,204
Do you think you could get me
a picture of the Taj Mahal?
341
00:27:15,705 --> 00:27:19,709
- Yeah. Why?
- I wanna draw it.
342
00:27:19,792 --> 00:27:24,005
Taj Mahal? I expect that's
not too easy to draw.
343
00:27:24,088 --> 00:27:27,091
Well, I got 23 and a half hours
a day to get it right.
344
00:27:35,683 --> 00:27:38,018
No. No, hold our table.
345
00:27:38,102 --> 00:27:40,103
We are on our way.
346
00:27:40,187 --> 00:27:42,648
- Order a good bottle of red.
We'll be there in ten.
- No, Johnny, l...
347
00:27:42,731 --> 00:27:46,943
- The ladies are not happy.
- You gotta apologize for me, cause I gotta work tonight.
- Aw, come on.
348
00:27:47,027 --> 00:27:50,322
No, no, no, I been going through
the transcripts from the Liggett trial,
and listen to this...
349
00:27:50,405 --> 00:27:53,241
- Sam gave you Liggett?
- Yeah. He's got that guy Henry Reese.
350
00:27:53,325 --> 00:27:55,952
Well, Liggett shouldn't keep you that
busy. It's a pretty open-and-shut case.
351
00:27:56,036 --> 00:27:59,497
- No, no, not necessarily.
- Huh? Well, it always
seemed that way to me.
352
00:27:59,581 --> 00:28:01,165
- Yeah, but...
- And I'm familiar with the case.
353
00:28:01,249 --> 00:28:02,959
No. L-I found this
police report, right?
354
00:28:03,042 --> 00:28:05,837
Her brother said that she and her
codefendant had been up for two days...
355
00:28:05,920 --> 00:28:07,505
smoking crack
and robbing houses.
356
00:28:07,588 --> 00:28:10,258
At the sentencing hearing, her lawyer
doesn't say word one about drugs...
357
00:28:10,341 --> 00:28:12,843
or intoxication or even a possible
lack of premeditation.
358
00:28:12,927 --> 00:28:14,845
Well, that's a judgement call.
359
00:28:14,929 --> 00:28:17,681
Yeah, but when juries vote to execute,
the key issue is intent.
360
00:28:17,765 --> 00:28:21,602
I mean, was this murder intentional?
Was there a reasonable expectation
that death would result?
361
00:28:21,685 --> 00:28:23,687
I was a prosecutor.
I know the law.
362
00:28:23,771 --> 00:28:26,523
Well, then why didn't the lawyer use it?
'Cause this girl was blasted
out of her mind.
363
00:28:26,607 --> 00:28:28,525
It would've at least raised
a doubt with the jury.
364
00:28:28,609 --> 00:28:30,527
- Does it make it a clemency issue?
- No, not technically.
365
00:28:30,611 --> 00:28:33,113
Then stay within the guidelines
of your office and wrap this one up.
366
00:28:33,196 --> 00:28:35,824
Hold on. Does she have to die because
she had a lousy defence lawyer...
367
00:28:35,907 --> 00:28:37,826
and the father of one of her victims
is a buddy of the governor?
368
00:28:37,909 --> 00:28:40,829
No. She has to die because
she committed a double murder.
369
00:28:40,912 --> 00:28:43,123
Well, I'm not saying that she doesn't
deserve to be behind bars.
370
00:28:43,206 --> 00:28:47,252
I'm saying I don't think this woman
deserves to be put to death.
371
00:28:49,170 --> 00:28:51,339
Let's go. Come on.
372
00:28:51,422 --> 00:28:54,050
- Whoa.
- I want things to work out for you here.
373
00:28:54,133 --> 00:28:56,219
- What does that mean?
- It means be sensible.
374
00:28:56,302 --> 00:28:58,387
- Don't patronize me.
- Oh, not intended.
375
00:28:58,471 --> 00:29:01,557
- Oh, I see. I'm just supposed
to shut up and be grateful...
- No, not grateful. Successful.
376
00:29:01,640 --> 00:29:05,227
- And you're dead set on preventing it.
- Oh, boy, John, I really
appreciate your confidence.
377
00:29:05,311 --> 00:29:09,982
- I want you to have a chance.
- Oh, by putting me in a job
where no one expects anything.
378
00:29:10,065 --> 00:29:12,484
What have you done
to deserve anything more?
379
00:29:15,863 --> 00:29:17,823
I think I've lost my appetite.
380
00:29:34,714 --> 00:29:37,258
- Can you tell me where Morris lives?
- Next one.
381
00:29:50,104 --> 00:29:52,773
Hi.
382
00:29:52,857 --> 00:29:54,775
- Who are you?
- Uh, Miss Morris, well, I'm Rick Hayes.
383
00:29:54,859 --> 00:29:56,777
I'm with the State Clemency Board.
384
00:29:56,860 --> 00:29:59,988
- What's it about?
- Well, it's about your niece,
Cindy Liggett.
385
00:30:00,072 --> 00:30:02,449
- No.
- No, she's not your niece?
386
00:30:02,533 --> 00:30:04,451
- No. Not any more.
- Well, she did live here, yes?
387
00:30:04,535 --> 00:30:06,620
- Mm-mmm. No. No.
- Well, uh, can I just ask you...
388
00:30:06,703 --> 00:30:08,663
- There seems to be a...
- No.
389
00:30:15,587 --> 00:30:17,672
Ooh, baby, you drive me
390
00:30:17,756 --> 00:30:21,634
So don't send me home
391
00:30:21,718 --> 00:30:26,222
I dressed up my windows
and I shined up my chrome
392
00:30:27,890 --> 00:30:30,810
You're blowin'my gaskets
393
00:30:30,893 --> 00:30:34,438
Lay down a five and I'll
show you my kitty cat.
394
00:30:34,522 --> 00:30:38,067
Come here. I'd like to talk to you about
a girl named Cindy Liggett.
395
00:30:40,194 --> 00:30:44,907
Don't turn up my heater
Don't shut off my light
396
00:30:46,617 --> 00:30:49,495
How she got into it?
397
00:30:49,578 --> 00:30:51,496
How far back you want me to go?
398
00:30:51,580 --> 00:30:55,000
I mean, her mama's boyfriend
got her high on smack when she
was 14, and then he fucked her.
399
00:30:55,083 --> 00:30:58,670
- So...
- Cindy got into fuckin' and shootin' up
because that's what her mama was into.
400
00:30:58,753 --> 00:31:00,922
Tell me about
the girl she killed.
401
00:31:01,006 --> 00:31:03,174
- Debbie Hunt.
- Yeah. What, you knew her?
402
00:31:03,258 --> 00:31:07,011
Everybody knew Debbie.
Her daddy was foreman at McGuire.
403
00:31:07,095 --> 00:31:10,265
You... Cindy's mom, she worked at
McGuire Lumber as well, yeah?
404
00:31:10,348 --> 00:31:13,685
Hunt's bookkeeper. Hell, she couldn't
add water to orange juice.
405
00:31:13,768 --> 00:31:16,020
What, like personal favours?
406
00:31:16,104 --> 00:31:18,689
On-the-job services.
407
00:31:18,773 --> 00:31:21,233
Sweet deal for old Hunt
till rumours started flyin'.
408
00:31:21,317 --> 00:31:24,070
Then she spread it around she stole
from petty cash and fired her.
409
00:31:24,153 --> 00:31:28,115
I'm sorry. You're saying that she knew this
when she went in that house that night.
410
00:31:28,199 --> 00:31:31,118
It's like she was trying to
get even for her mom.
411
00:31:31,201 --> 00:31:34,079
She was too screwed up
to know what she was doin'.
412
00:31:34,163 --> 00:31:37,040
- I loved her and all, but...
- Did you see her that night?
413
00:31:37,124 --> 00:31:39,543
You know if she
was on any drugs?
414
00:31:40,794 --> 00:31:43,213
Look, I'm on next.
415
00:32:25,671 --> 00:32:30,425
Doug? Hi. I'm, I'm Rick Hayes.
I'm with the Clemency Board.
416
00:32:30,509 --> 00:32:34,596
The reason I'm here is, uh, it looks like
Cindy could be executed in three weeks.
417
00:32:34,679 --> 00:32:37,766
- Uh-huh.
- Well, l-I'm just...
418
00:32:37,849 --> 00:32:40,351
l-I'm wondering, uh,
now that it's ancient history...
419
00:32:40,435 --> 00:32:43,730
if there was anything you might
like to add before it's too late.
420
00:32:43,813 --> 00:32:47,066
- Like what?
- Well...
421
00:32:47,150 --> 00:32:50,361
Well, l-I know you plea-bargained
down to second-degree murder...
422
00:32:50,445 --> 00:32:53,447
- in exchange for testifying
against her at the trial...
- Yeah.
423
00:32:53,531 --> 00:32:56,450
And at the trial you said
the whole thing was her idea.
424
00:32:58,577 --> 00:33:02,498
- Actually, that's kind of unusual, isn't it?
- Why?
425
00:33:02,581 --> 00:33:05,668
I don't know. I mean,
17-year-old guys...
426
00:33:05,751 --> 00:33:09,171
don't usually let girls lead 'em
around, now, do they?
427
00:33:11,423 --> 00:33:14,509
Maybe she was the one
that was unusual.
428
00:33:14,593 --> 00:33:17,387
Th-The two of you had pulled off
quite a few burglaries that summer.
429
00:33:17,471 --> 00:33:21,850
- So she masterminded all of'em.
- I was 17 fuckin' years old, boy.
430
00:33:21,933 --> 00:33:25,562
Oh, uh, I see what you mean. She was...
She was older. She was, what, 19?
431
00:33:25,645 --> 00:33:28,231
Yeah, 19, goin' on about 30.
432
00:33:28,314 --> 00:33:30,483
And drugs. What kind of drugs
were you on?
433
00:33:30,567 --> 00:33:34,153
Some weed, some beer.
434
00:33:34,237 --> 00:33:36,698
- That's all?
- Yeah.
435
00:33:36,781 --> 00:33:38,783
What about crack?
436
00:33:38,866 --> 00:33:42,662
- Nah, no crack.
- You sure? Because the,
the police report...
437
00:33:42,745 --> 00:33:44,830
- Am I sure?
- Yeah.
438
00:33:44,914 --> 00:33:46,832
You think I'm ever gonna
forget that night?
439
00:33:46,916 --> 00:33:50,419
Well, you would if it would save you from
being executed, now, wouldn't you?
440
00:33:53,589 --> 00:33:56,759
- You're fuckin' with me.
- No, you help me, and maybe
I can help you.
441
00:33:56,842 --> 00:34:00,012
- Did she send you?
- No.
442
00:34:00,095 --> 00:34:03,307
She suckin' your cock?
443
00:34:03,390 --> 00:34:06,059
Oh, shit, she can get a guy
to do anything she wants.
444
00:34:06,143 --> 00:34:07,936
She's a cocksuckin' witch!
445
00:34:11,273 --> 00:34:13,775
I'll kick your ass!
446
00:34:18,446 --> 00:34:20,114
Fuckers!
447
00:34:49,101 --> 00:34:51,144
Have you got mental problems?
Is that why they stuck you down here?
448
00:34:51,228 --> 00:34:53,146
- Hey...
- 'Cause that's gotta be it.
- It got out of hand.
449
00:34:53,230 --> 00:34:56,399
Listen to me. I don't care what your
name is. Your brother can fire my ass.
450
00:34:56,483 --> 00:34:59,027
- Look...
- You're not here to retry this case or duke
it out with the prosecution's witness.
451
00:34:59,110 --> 00:35:01,696
Sam, when I came here you asked me
if I wanted to work. That's all I'm
trying to do.
452
00:35:01,780 --> 00:35:04,491
I thought you'd be a lazy bastard. I didn't
know you'd go into business for yourself.
453
00:35:04,574 --> 00:35:06,492
Well, maybe the woman
doesn't deserve to die.
454
00:35:06,576 --> 00:35:08,494
- That's not your decision, Rick.
- Okay.
455
00:35:08,578 --> 00:35:10,621
- You understand? Huh?
- Yeah.
456
00:35:10,705 --> 00:35:15,626
Good. Now, I'm reassigning you. Do some
fact checking on the John Reese report.
457
00:35:15,710 --> 00:35:18,587
- What about all the interviews
I'm supposed to do?
- No, no, no, no. John Reese.
458
00:35:18,671 --> 00:35:21,590
Or you're out of here.
459
00:35:27,763 --> 00:35:30,682
Who do you think you are, man?
Get your butt over here.
460
00:35:30,766 --> 00:35:33,101
Attention on the yard.
Attention on the yard.
461
00:35:33,185 --> 00:35:37,522
The following inmate, Labarber, Michelle,
report to the visiting room.
462
00:35:46,990 --> 00:35:50,034
Well, I'll be damned.
463
00:35:50,118 --> 00:35:52,829
- Hey, Reg?
- What?
464
00:35:52,912 --> 00:35:56,332
Reg, come here.
I wanna show you something.
465
00:35:56,416 --> 00:35:58,418
- You remember that guy?
- What guy?
466
00:35:58,501 --> 00:36:01,337
- That guy from Clemency.
- Yeah. What?
467
00:36:01,420 --> 00:36:03,965
- He sent me a picture of the Taj Mahal.
- The what?
468
00:36:04,048 --> 00:36:07,885
The, the, the, the Taj Mahal.
It's this place in India.
469
00:36:07,968 --> 00:36:10,221
This king built it
for his queen.
470
00:36:10,304 --> 00:36:12,139
Oh, yeah, that's nice.
I like that.
471
00:36:12,223 --> 00:36:14,892
Here, come on.
Hey, hey, let me see.
472
00:36:14,975 --> 00:36:18,145
Cindy. Cindy,
turn it down this way.
473
00:36:18,228 --> 00:36:20,856
- Got that?
- Oh, that's nice. Nice!
474
00:36:20,939 --> 00:36:24,151
- That looks real good.
- Yeah, I've seen that one before.
475
00:36:24,234 --> 00:36:28,029
- Oh, yeah. I bet you been
there a hundred times too.
- Well, I think it's pretty.
476
00:36:28,113 --> 00:36:30,031
What's it say?
477
00:36:30,115 --> 00:36:34,995
It says, "I wish you were there.
Sincerely, Slick Rick."
478
00:36:35,078 --> 00:36:39,165
- What the hell's that mean?
- Oh, nothin'. Just a kind of a joke.
479
00:36:51,969 --> 00:36:54,930
Good luck with your appeal,
Mr Reese. Goodbye.
480
00:36:58,767 --> 00:37:01,270
Mr Reese, how are you? Hi.
481
00:37:04,940 --> 00:37:07,192
- Where's Sam?
- Well, he had to work
on another case today.
482
00:37:07,276 --> 00:37:10,028
- Who are you?
- I'm Rick Hayes.
483
00:37:10,112 --> 00:37:12,614
- I'm gonna be working on your report.
- I can't believe Sam didn't come.
484
00:37:12,698 --> 00:37:15,534
Well, uh, I'd just like to verify a few things,
if that's okay.
485
00:37:15,617 --> 00:37:17,536
- Have a seat.
- Thanks.
486
00:37:19,454 --> 00:37:23,541
- Tell me, have you read the report?
- Of course I read it.
487
00:37:23,625 --> 00:37:26,461
- There's another letter comin'
you have to put in.
- Oh? From whom?
488
00:37:26,544 --> 00:37:29,839
Dr Arnold Marks.
489
00:37:29,923 --> 00:37:33,718
- What's the nature of the letter?
- You don't know who he is?
490
00:37:33,801 --> 00:37:37,221
- No.
- He's the top cardiovascular
surgeon in New York City.
491
00:37:37,305 --> 00:37:39,265
- Oh.
- And a personal friend.
492
00:37:40,349 --> 00:37:42,268
He did my bypass.
493
00:37:42,351 --> 00:37:47,398
Man read my book, came down here,
did my bypass, no charge.
494
00:37:47,481 --> 00:37:51,568
Well, you have a lot of
impressive friends, Mr Reese.
495
00:37:51,652 --> 00:37:55,239
Yeah, and right now I'm gonna need
every one of'em. You read my book?
496
00:37:55,322 --> 00:37:58,784
- Yeah, I started it.
- Finish it.
497
00:37:58,867 --> 00:38:03,622
- I plan to.
- You see the letter from the
dean of the Yale law school?
498
00:38:03,705 --> 00:38:06,958
- Yeah.
- I've been corresponding with him.
499
00:38:07,042 --> 00:38:09,711
I've strategized all my appeals,
you know. I taught myself.
500
00:38:09,794 --> 00:38:13,673
I've taken control
of the killing machine.
501
00:38:22,181 --> 00:38:24,851
Look at me.
502
00:38:26,936 --> 00:38:29,105
Is he working
for the white girl now?
503
00:38:29,188 --> 00:38:31,482
- What?
- Cindy Liggett.
504
00:38:31,565 --> 00:38:34,485
Is she the one getting clemency?
Is that... That's why Sam's not here?
505
00:38:34,568 --> 00:38:37,613
Mr Reese, the governor
determines who gets clemency.
506
00:38:37,696 --> 00:38:40,616
Yeah, but what is
the smart money saying, huh?
507
00:38:40,699 --> 00:38:44,995
I mean, who's gonna live, me or
the white girl? Who's he gonna forgive?
508
00:38:45,078 --> 00:38:49,499
A man of colour
who earned a law degree...
509
00:38:49,583 --> 00:38:53,837
who wrote a best-seller and won the
admiration of some of our best people...
510
00:38:53,920 --> 00:38:58,800
or a white trash girl who
bludgeoned two people to pulp...
511
00:38:58,883 --> 00:39:00,844
without blinking an eye?
512
00:39:02,345 --> 00:39:04,639
They will be diminished...
513
00:39:04,722 --> 00:39:06,808
by my death...
514
00:39:06,891 --> 00:39:11,479
'cause I represent everything
they love and admire.
515
00:39:11,562 --> 00:39:14,357
How they gonna go
and kill a man...
516
00:39:14,440 --> 00:39:18,652
who has been on The New York
Times best-seller list?
517
00:39:24,408 --> 00:39:26,368
- Hey there.
- Hey.
518
00:39:29,830 --> 00:39:31,999
So, what's all that stuff?
Homework?
519
00:39:32,082 --> 00:39:36,211
No, these are your trial transcripts. Um,
look, I'm not supposed to be here, okay?
520
00:39:36,294 --> 00:39:38,338
- They took me off the case.
- How come?
521
00:39:38,421 --> 00:39:42,425
Mmm, doesn't matter.
But there's stuff in here,
especially in your sentencing hearing.
522
00:39:42,509 --> 00:39:44,344
- Forget it.
- Grounds for appeal that
haven't been raised. No...
523
00:39:44,427 --> 00:39:46,679
- Just leave it alone.
- Think your lawyer really blew it.
524
00:39:46,763 --> 00:39:49,015
- You might not have gotten
the death penalty.
- Well, it doesn't matter now, does it?
525
00:39:49,098 --> 00:39:51,851
Yeah, it does to me.
What do I have to say to you?
526
00:39:51,935 --> 00:39:55,438
Look, if you wanna be my buddy,
just come see me on Saturday, okay?
I got two left.
527
00:39:55,521 --> 00:39:58,649
What... You tell me what it is I have to say
to you to get you to want to save your
own life.
528
00:39:58,733 --> 00:40:03,362
- What is this with you, some
kind of ego thing or what?
- What?
529
00:40:03,446 --> 00:40:06,157
You don't like to lose.
Is that it?
530
00:40:06,240 --> 00:40:08,701
What are you
tryin' to prove here?
531
00:40:08,784 --> 00:40:11,120
I'm just trying to do my job.
532
00:40:13,414 --> 00:40:16,125
I mean, I guess this is
the first real job I've had.
533
00:40:17,459 --> 00:40:19,378
I knew you was a rich boy.
534
00:40:19,461 --> 00:40:22,130
Huh. Yeah? It shows, does it?
535
00:40:24,466 --> 00:40:29,554
See, growing up I thought everyone lived
like me. I had a good time.
536
00:40:29,638 --> 00:40:32,849
I mean, I graduated law school
and...
537
00:40:32,932 --> 00:40:35,685
- I'm sorry. I don't want to bore you
with this, but I'd like to...
- I know.
538
00:40:35,768 --> 00:40:40,189
I been listenin' to the same four
life stories for way too long now.
539
00:40:40,273 --> 00:40:42,567
One more would be just great.
540
00:40:42,650 --> 00:40:46,737
Well, uh, I graduated
law school and, uh...
541
00:40:46,821 --> 00:40:50,866
I drew a salary from my dad's company,
and I travelled and I partied.
542
00:40:50,950 --> 00:40:53,244
Tough. Breakin' my heart here.
543
00:40:53,327 --> 00:40:58,123
Yeah, well, the recession hit
and my father's business fell apart.
544
00:40:58,207 --> 00:41:00,751
I tried to help with
the company and...
545
00:41:00,834 --> 00:41:04,838
I mean, we almost got things
turned around, but, uh,
a bunch of loans came due...
546
00:41:04,922 --> 00:41:09,217
and, and one thing
led to another and, uh...
547
00:41:09,301 --> 00:41:13,263
See, we ended up juggling the books
and borrowing on false collateral...
548
00:41:13,346 --> 00:41:17,559
and we lost everything, and,
and I beat a fraud charge...
549
00:41:17,642 --> 00:41:20,145
and, uh...
550
00:41:20,228 --> 00:41:22,188
and l-I almost got disbarred.
551
00:41:23,439 --> 00:41:25,900
I mean, I don't even
know how it all...
552
00:41:25,984 --> 00:41:28,653
It's just...
One thing led to another.
553
00:41:28,736 --> 00:41:30,696
Yeah, I know how that goes.
554
00:41:32,865 --> 00:41:36,619
Yard recall and lockdown.
Yard recall and lockdown.
555
00:41:36,702 --> 00:41:38,913
You gotta go.
556
00:41:38,996 --> 00:41:41,207
- Well...
- See ya.
557
00:41:42,333 --> 00:41:44,501
Saturday?
558
00:41:44,585 --> 00:41:46,337
Saturday.
559
00:41:55,053 --> 00:41:57,681
Sam! Hold on there.
560
00:41:57,764 --> 00:42:01,685
- Goddam it, what are you trying to do?
- Just hold on one second.
561
00:42:01,768 --> 00:42:04,354
Let me see that stick
you got in your hand.
562
00:42:04,437 --> 00:42:07,690
- It's a sand wedge.
- Ah, well, you don't want
to use a sand wedge.
563
00:42:07,774 --> 00:42:10,318
I'm up to my eyeballs in sand, and
you're telling me I don't want to use
a sand wedge?
564
00:42:10,401 --> 00:42:12,987
- That's right. You wanna use
a pitching wedge.
- Just back off.
565
00:42:13,071 --> 00:42:15,657
- Give me the sand wedge.
- Listen to me. Pitching wedge, okay?
566
00:42:15,740 --> 00:42:20,077
Break your wrists off right away,
cut straight down into it.
567
00:42:20,161 --> 00:42:22,955
Trust me.
568
00:42:23,039 --> 00:42:26,417
All right, but if you're wrong you're
working the Department of Highways
tomorrow.
569
00:42:26,500 --> 00:42:29,128
Okay.
570
00:42:29,211 --> 00:42:30,713
Right down now.
571
00:42:35,968 --> 00:42:39,471
- Okay!
- You're welcome.
572
00:42:39,555 --> 00:42:43,684
Goddang. I forgot
who I was dealing with.
573
00:42:43,767 --> 00:42:46,186
Probably grew up on the
ninth hole at White Sands.
574
00:42:46,269 --> 00:42:50,398
Well, golf's about as close as we came
to any kind of organized religion.
575
00:42:50,482 --> 00:42:53,026
Let's put it that way.
576
00:42:53,109 --> 00:42:57,030
- The Reese reports ready to go?
- Well, yeah, except for
your recommendation.
577
00:42:57,113 --> 00:43:00,533
- You want this in or out?
- You can take it out.
578
00:43:03,995 --> 00:43:06,038
Why don't you finish up
on Liggett.
579
00:43:06,122 --> 00:43:09,417
Go to St. Charles County and
do those last few interviews.
580
00:43:09,500 --> 00:43:11,460
No problem.
581
00:43:17,466 --> 00:43:19,385
Nice.
582
00:43:19,468 --> 00:43:21,470
You gotta watch yourself, Rick.
583
00:43:21,553 --> 00:43:24,765
You get sucked in,
it does nobody any good.
584
00:43:24,848 --> 00:43:27,935
- You hear me?
- Yeah.
585
00:43:28,018 --> 00:43:30,937
So you do all this work
on these capital cases...
586
00:43:31,021 --> 00:43:34,399
for a governor who, who never
grants clemency, huh?
587
00:43:34,483 --> 00:43:36,484
Always a first time.
588
00:43:36,568 --> 00:43:40,655
- Well, how do you stay with it?
- I'm highly motivated.
589
00:43:40,739 --> 00:43:44,742
If I don't pay my child support,
I'll end up in state prison.
590
00:43:44,826 --> 00:43:46,786
You never get involved
emotionally?
591
00:43:49,956 --> 00:43:52,250
You ever hear of a guy
named James Nichols?
592
00:43:52,333 --> 00:43:54,752
Um, no, I don't think so.
593
00:43:54,836 --> 00:43:57,088
I got to know him pretty well.
594
00:43:57,171 --> 00:44:00,216
Big kid in a man's body.
Killed three people.
595
00:44:00,299 --> 00:44:02,218
Yeah?
596
00:44:02,301 --> 00:44:04,678
He wanted me to be there
at the end.
597
00:44:04,762 --> 00:44:07,681
- Here you go.
- Made me promise.
598
00:44:10,434 --> 00:44:15,606
They were still using the electric chair
then, and they messed up.
599
00:44:15,689 --> 00:44:18,775
Took a long time
for Jimmy to die.
600
00:44:18,859 --> 00:44:22,445
He started to burn, literally.
601
00:44:22,529 --> 00:44:25,323
His knees fused together.
602
00:44:25,407 --> 00:44:28,868
Smoke started coming off of him.
You could smell it.
603
00:44:28,952 --> 00:44:30,870
Jesus.
604
00:44:32,497 --> 00:44:34,415
I can still smell it.
605
00:44:41,923 --> 00:44:43,841
This is her senior picture.
606
00:44:43,925 --> 00:44:46,552
The high school dedicated
the full page.
607
00:44:47,720 --> 00:44:50,389
They were all wild kids.
608
00:44:50,473 --> 00:44:53,058
We let 'em run wild.
609
00:44:55,394 --> 00:44:58,689
I mean, the things they were doin',
it could've happened to any of'em.
610
00:45:01,900 --> 00:45:06,863
But I don't believe in killing.
"Thou shalt not kill."
611
00:45:06,947 --> 00:45:08,907
Not even Cindy Liggett.
612
00:45:10,784 --> 00:45:15,288
L-I can only i-imagine that must
be difficult for you to say.
613
00:45:15,372 --> 00:45:18,166
Well, I'm not saying
that I forgive her...
614
00:45:18,249 --> 00:45:20,293
although I'm trying.
615
00:45:21,961 --> 00:45:26,007
God, I known her since
she was five years old...
616
00:45:26,090 --> 00:45:28,259
and they were sweet kids.
617
00:45:28,342 --> 00:45:30,678
It's just that
putting her to death...
618
00:45:30,761 --> 00:45:34,390
is only gonna keep us
locked in this darkness.
619
00:45:34,473 --> 00:45:39,520
Well, ma'am, would you consider signing
a statement on behalf of Miss Liggett?
620
00:45:39,603 --> 00:45:42,189
No.
621
00:45:43,816 --> 00:45:45,943
Bu... Can you tell me why not?
622
00:45:47,778 --> 00:45:50,280
No.
623
00:45:58,788 --> 00:46:01,041
- Good day, sir.
- Hi. I'm Rick Hayes.
624
00:46:01,124 --> 00:46:04,419
Mr McGuire's in the drawing
room waiting for you, sir.
625
00:46:04,502 --> 00:46:06,463
Thank you.
626
00:46:12,135 --> 00:46:14,053
Mr McGuire, hello.
627
00:46:15,680 --> 00:46:19,725
- This is Mr Faring, my attorney.
- Hi. Rick Hayes.
628
00:46:19,809 --> 00:46:22,812
You wanted some kind
of a statement.
629
00:46:22,895 --> 00:46:25,940
Well, it's an update.
It's required by law.
630
00:46:27,733 --> 00:46:31,820
A copy of this has already
been sent to the governor.
631
00:46:35,616 --> 00:46:39,244
- All right.
- I'm not in the best of health.
632
00:46:41,163 --> 00:46:43,331
But I promise you...
633
00:46:43,415 --> 00:46:46,334
that I'm gonna live to see this
woman pay for what's she's done.
634
00:46:48,128 --> 00:46:50,797
This scum brutally
murdered my son...
635
00:46:52,215 --> 00:46:54,926
and she's brutally murdered
an entire family's chance...
636
00:46:55,009 --> 00:46:58,930
for another moment
of peace or happiness.
637
00:46:59,013 --> 00:47:02,934
There's nothing left
for us now except justice.
638
00:47:05,937 --> 00:47:10,858
My boy would've been
about your age today.
639
00:47:10,941 --> 00:47:13,194
He didn't deserve to die
like that.
640
00:47:15,487 --> 00:47:17,406
What she did to him...
641
00:47:20,159 --> 00:47:22,327
It had to be a closed casket.
642
00:47:24,997 --> 00:47:28,750
Mr Hayes, what if
it was your son?
643
00:47:37,425 --> 00:47:40,345
First time I picked her up
was on a Drunk and Disorderly.
644
00:47:40,428 --> 00:47:44,140
I was a beat cop. She was 14.
645
00:47:44,223 --> 00:47:47,435
Had a set of balls on her
even as a kid.
646
00:47:47,518 --> 00:47:50,104
This was no surprise.
647
00:47:50,188 --> 00:47:54,150
She and Barnes had committed at least
20 burglaries that we knew of
that summer.
648
00:47:54,233 --> 00:47:58,737
The brutality of the crime...
uh, did that seem in character?
649
00:47:58,821 --> 00:48:00,364
- Character.
- Yeah.
650
00:48:00,447 --> 00:48:02,866
A crackhead's got no character.
651
00:48:02,950 --> 00:48:05,744
Doug Barnes was so hot to cut
a deal with the D. A...
652
00:48:05,828 --> 00:48:09,706
he testified against Cindy and then
tossed in a couple of dope dealers
just for good measure.
653
00:48:09,790 --> 00:48:11,833
- I'll sign it after this hearing.
- Yes, sir.
654
00:48:13,126 --> 00:48:15,253
I have to be in court
in 30 minutes.
655
00:48:15,337 --> 00:48:17,672
Okay, we're just about
finished here, Mr Rusk.
656
00:48:17,756 --> 00:48:21,301
- I am trying to find her brother though.
- Her brother.
657
00:48:21,384 --> 00:48:24,596
- You think he's gonna help you?
- He's in Walkerton.
658
00:48:24,679 --> 00:48:27,515
Next time he screws up,
state prison.
659
00:48:27,599 --> 00:48:30,185
Okay, well, I appreciate
your time. Thank you.
660
00:48:30,268 --> 00:48:32,854
You can include these
in your report, Mr Hayes.
661
00:48:32,937 --> 00:48:38,234
They were considered too inflammatory
to be introduced at the trial.
662
00:48:39,777 --> 00:48:41,946
I hear she's changed quite a bit in there.
Is that right?
663
00:48:42,029 --> 00:48:45,032
- She has.
- That's great.
664
00:48:45,116 --> 00:48:47,827
You know, it's a shame that these people
don't get to change.
665
00:48:47,910 --> 00:48:49,662
They'll stay like this forever.
666
00:48:51,705 --> 00:48:54,041
Look, I prosecuted this case.
667
00:48:54,124 --> 00:48:57,252
It was my first big case,
and I know it cold.
668
00:48:57,336 --> 00:49:00,213
The attorney general's office is totally
behind us, and so is the public...
669
00:49:00,297 --> 00:49:02,341
and we're gonna see
this sentence carried out.
670
00:49:02,424 --> 00:49:08,263
Now, you can dick around all you want,
but this sentence will be carried out.
671
00:49:08,346 --> 00:49:10,807
It's good to see you, Joe.
672
00:49:29,325 --> 00:49:34,830
"...call our grandfather
Grandpa."
673
00:49:39,835 --> 00:49:41,795
Frances?
674
00:49:43,088 --> 00:49:45,007
Frances?
675
00:49:47,175 --> 00:49:49,678
What time is it, Frances?
676
00:49:49,761 --> 00:49:53,557
3.30. Saturday hours are over.
677
00:49:54,683 --> 00:49:57,477
Shit.
678
00:49:57,560 --> 00:49:59,604
Ain't no man worth
gettin' upset over.
679
00:49:59,688 --> 00:50:01,606
Shut up.
680
00:50:01,689 --> 00:50:05,526
You wanna get mad, I can give you
a lot better things to get mad about.
681
00:50:05,610 --> 00:50:08,946
- Just stay out of it, bitch!
- Who you callin' bitch, bitch?
682
00:50:09,030 --> 00:50:11,157
Calling' you bitch,
you stupid bitch!
683
00:50:11,240 --> 00:50:13,951
You think anybody's gonna marry you
after you killed two husbands?
684
00:50:14,035 --> 00:50:16,787
At least I ever got married.
That's more than you can say.
685
00:50:16,871 --> 00:50:20,875
- Shut up!
- Girl, you losin' your mind.
686
00:50:31,468 --> 00:50:34,680
...since the tender age
of 12 years old.
687
00:50:34,763 --> 00:50:40,310
Carrie says that men are stupid,
and Carrie specializes in...
688
00:50:43,980 --> 00:50:45,982
Hey.
689
00:50:47,150 --> 00:50:49,944
Didn't think you were comin'.
690
00:50:50,028 --> 00:50:52,322
Well, I was out of town.
691
00:50:52,405 --> 00:50:54,616
So much for promises.
692
00:50:54,699 --> 00:50:57,201
I was doing interviews
for your report.
693
00:50:57,285 --> 00:50:59,370
Then I guess you know
everything now.
694
00:50:59,454 --> 00:51:02,164
No, I know about the past.
695
00:51:02,248 --> 00:51:04,208
You're not that person any more.
696
00:51:09,296 --> 00:51:13,050
All right, look, I need you
to tell me about that night.
697
00:51:15,594 --> 00:51:17,763
That night?
698
00:51:22,267 --> 00:51:24,186
That night is...
699
00:51:24,978 --> 00:51:27,105
inside me like this...
700
00:51:28,940 --> 00:51:31,026
big, terrible shadow.
701
00:51:34,404 --> 00:51:36,698
I hated Debbie Hunt.
702
00:51:36,781 --> 00:51:40,577
I hated everything,
everything I didn't have.
703
00:51:42,161 --> 00:51:46,165
And Debbie Hunt used to just
rub my nose in it.
704
00:51:47,667 --> 00:51:49,710
And all that hate...
705
00:51:49,794 --> 00:51:52,713
just blew everything apart.
706
00:51:54,924 --> 00:51:57,051
I killed them.
707
00:51:57,134 --> 00:51:59,219
I killed myself.
708
00:51:59,303 --> 00:52:01,221
I know what I did.
709
00:52:02,556 --> 00:52:04,975
I can't change that.
710
00:52:05,058 --> 00:52:07,811
I can only change myself.
711
00:52:09,479 --> 00:52:13,066
Uh, I guess there are just...
712
00:52:13,150 --> 00:52:15,068
some things...
713
00:52:15,152 --> 00:52:17,404
can't be forgiven.
714
00:52:17,487 --> 00:52:20,240
Why not...
715
00:52:20,323 --> 00:52:23,368
if a person's able to change?
716
00:52:23,451 --> 00:52:27,413
'Cause the people doin' the
forgivin' have to change too.
717
00:52:40,509 --> 00:52:43,762
Today for the first time
in my term as Governor...
718
00:52:43,846 --> 00:52:46,390
in light of a number
of most-compelling reasons...
719
00:52:46,473 --> 00:52:49,393
I am granting clemency
in a capital case.
720
00:52:53,689 --> 00:52:58,235
I'm withdrawing my order of
execution for John Henry Reese...
721
00:52:58,360 --> 00:53:02,280
and commuting his sentence
to life imprisonment.
722
00:53:02,405 --> 00:53:05,242
- What about Liggett?
- There should be no mistake however...
- No.
723
00:53:05,325 --> 00:53:08,912
- That I remain a strong proponent
of the death penalty...
- Why?
724
00:53:09,037 --> 00:53:12,290
- And a firm believer of its place in our society.
- What the hell do you want, a religious conversion?
725
00:53:12,373 --> 00:53:15,543
- Wouldn't have hurt.
- And I know the people of this state...
726
00:53:15,668 --> 00:53:18,755
overwhelmingly agree with me.
727
00:53:18,838 --> 00:53:21,132
- There are, however...
- Look...
728
00:53:21,257 --> 00:53:24,260
- those rare occasions when
exceptions cry out.
- It's an issue of credibility.
729
00:53:24,343 --> 00:53:26,387
- And the rule of law...
- Whose credibility?
- Mine.
730
00:53:26,512 --> 00:53:29,932
Must acknowledge
extraordinary circumstances.
731
00:53:30,015 --> 00:53:32,768
- I'll take a few questions now.
- Governor.
- Governor.
732
00:53:32,851 --> 00:53:36,522
Governor, could you tell us
the compelling reasons
that prompted your decision...
733
00:53:36,647 --> 00:53:39,483
to commute
Mr Reese's sentence?
734
00:53:39,566 --> 00:53:44,529
- Mr Reese has gone as far as any prisoner I've ever seen...
- I stick my neck out, there better be a damn good reason.
735
00:53:44,613 --> 00:53:50,285
- Transforming himself into a thinking, contributing...
- I don't see it with Liggett. Maybe you do. I'm sorry.
736
00:53:50,368 --> 00:53:53,371
- This is about reelection, isn't it?
- Responsible and very unique voice.
737
00:53:53,496 --> 00:53:56,041
It's about getting
the black vote, isn't it?
738
00:53:56,124 --> 00:53:58,334
It's about clemency.
739
00:53:59,752 --> 00:54:02,463
Governor, what about
the Liggett case?
740
00:54:02,547 --> 00:54:06,843
Clemency was denied. Miss Liggett's
death warrant is set to be carried out...
741
00:54:06,968 --> 00:54:11,264
at 12.01 a.m. On Saturday,
one week from today.
742
00:54:11,389 --> 00:54:15,851
If it's carried out, Cindy Liggett will be
the first woman in 11 years...
743
00:54:15,935 --> 00:54:17,895
to be executed in this state.
744
00:54:18,020 --> 00:54:22,733
- Any comment?
- Miss Liggett committed a brutal
and senseless double murder.
745
00:54:22,858 --> 00:54:26,862
Her sex made no difference to her victims.
It makes no difference to us
under our legal system.
746
00:54:38,248 --> 00:54:42,419
- It's okay.
- I'm sorry.
747
00:54:42,502 --> 00:54:44,212
I know.
748
00:54:50,969 --> 00:54:53,346
Look, I've got an idea
for an appeal.
749
00:54:53,471 --> 00:54:56,891
No, no. You've gotta keep
letting me fight this.
750
00:54:59,894 --> 00:55:02,355
I am afraid to say no...
751
00:55:02,438 --> 00:55:05,065
and I am afraid to say yes.
752
00:55:09,737 --> 00:55:11,864
Look.
753
00:55:13,532 --> 00:55:16,159
There is somethin'
you can do for me.
754
00:55:24,417 --> 00:55:26,628
- One, two, three, hey!
- What's this about?
755
00:55:26,711 --> 00:55:28,838
- One, two, three, hey!
- I'm a friend of your sister's.
756
00:55:28,964 --> 00:55:31,716
- One, two, three, hey!
- Here's how it is.
757
00:55:31,800 --> 00:55:36,846
Uh, she's got six more days, okay?
Maybe you already know that.
758
00:55:36,930 --> 00:55:39,307
Now she wanted me
to get you this.
759
00:55:42,977 --> 00:55:46,314
You're the only family she's got.
760
00:55:46,397 --> 00:55:49,150
She loves you.
761
00:55:49,275 --> 00:55:52,111
- She said that?
- Yes, she did.
762
00:55:52,194 --> 00:55:55,197
You'll be doin' K.P., boy!
Let's move it!
763
00:55:55,322 --> 00:55:58,492
Six days.
764
00:55:58,575 --> 00:56:01,411
We're doin' all we can.
765
00:56:04,081 --> 00:56:06,124
I'm the one who turned her in.
Did you know that?
766
00:56:06,249 --> 00:56:08,627
Look, she doesn't hold anything
against you, okay?
767
00:56:08,710 --> 00:56:11,671
She's... She's actually grateful that
you stopped her. Believe me.
768
00:56:11,755 --> 00:56:16,051
- The cops, they, um... they said
I'd be savin' her life.
- Yep.
769
00:56:16,176 --> 00:56:18,720
What I did,
I did it to help her.
770
00:56:18,803 --> 00:56:22,932
She was all messed up. Couldn't
tell what she was gonna do next.
771
00:56:23,016 --> 00:56:25,476
I didn't know this
was gonna happen.
772
00:56:25,560 --> 00:56:29,063
Listen, she knows all that,
all of it.
773
00:56:29,188 --> 00:56:31,482
She's okay.
774
00:56:39,615 --> 00:56:41,575
Come on, boys! Move it!
775
00:56:41,700 --> 00:56:46,497
So my next trick, kids,
is very impressive, very exciting.
776
00:56:46,580 --> 00:56:50,876
What I'm going to do is show you
a beautiful bouquet of flowers.
777
00:56:50,959 --> 00:56:53,003
- Would ya like to see that?
- Yeah.
778
00:56:53,086 --> 00:56:56,590
Would ya? Okay. Good.
Hold on. Ah, here they are.
779
00:56:56,715 --> 00:57:01,261
Aren't they beautiful?
As you can see, there's blue...
780
00:57:01,386 --> 00:57:03,680
and red and pink.
781
00:57:03,763 --> 00:57:07,976
What's so funny? Why are you giggling?
What do you mean there's no flowers?
782
00:57:08,101 --> 00:57:11,271
- Hi, I'm Rick Hayes. Remember?
- This happens to be my home.
783
00:57:11,396 --> 00:57:13,856
- Look, I, I need your help. I'm sorr...
- It's my daughter's birthday.
784
00:57:13,940 --> 00:57:19,695
Okay. Well, I need you to file a stay of
execution in Federal District Court
for Cindy Liggett.
785
00:57:19,820 --> 00:57:23,741
- Mama, Vanessa took my M&Ms.
- Okay, sweetheart, go back.
I'll take care of it.
786
00:57:23,824 --> 00:57:25,451
- Okay.
- I'll be right there.
787
00:57:25,534 --> 00:57:28,621
L-I'm sorry. But we... we have some
big-time grounds for appeal here.
788
00:57:28,704 --> 00:57:33,083
- What grounds?
- Well, ineffective counsel.
Basically, your partner Ed Duffy blew it.
789
00:57:33,208 --> 00:57:37,254
- Oh, you got a hell of a nerve.
- All right. Well, you take a look
at this, uh...
790
00:57:39,256 --> 00:57:41,133
I've got a police report here, okay?
791
00:57:41,216 --> 00:57:44,386
And this is a statement made by
her brother before the arrest.
792
00:57:46,596 --> 00:57:50,100
She and Doug Barnes had been
up for two days smokin' crack.
Now, he never introduced it.
793
00:57:50,183 --> 00:57:52,143
You tell me why.
794
00:57:52,227 --> 00:57:56,064
Well, I don't know. Maybe he felt a jury
sees a drug addict as subhuman.
795
00:57:56,147 --> 00:57:59,233
You and I both know they'd be a lot more
likely to execute an addict.
796
00:57:59,359 --> 00:58:02,362
Hey, we're talkin' a level of intoxication
here that might save her life.
797
00:58:02,487 --> 00:58:04,864
- Oh, man, it was a strategic move.
- Oh, come on.
798
00:58:04,989 --> 00:58:07,992
- Maybe he should have
pressed the drugs.
- We're six days from her execution.
799
00:58:08,075 --> 00:58:11,746
This is the only chance
she's got.
800
00:58:11,871 --> 00:58:16,750
Will you do it? Look, I'll handle
the research. I'll do the legwork.
801
00:58:16,834 --> 00:58:21,213
- Mom, I wanna open my presents.
- In a minute, baby. In a minute.
802
00:58:21,338 --> 00:58:24,341
One, two, three.
803
00:58:24,424 --> 00:58:27,219
Abracadabra.
804
00:58:27,302 --> 00:58:30,389
- I'll do my own research.
- Good.
805
00:58:34,809 --> 00:58:36,937
Good night.
806
00:59:17,059 --> 00:59:19,603
Good evening, sir.
807
00:59:19,728 --> 00:59:21,688
Thanks.
808
00:59:28,695 --> 00:59:30,989
Nice to see you.
809
00:59:33,950 --> 00:59:35,660
- Hey.
- Hey.
810
00:59:35,785 --> 00:59:37,995
- You made it.
- Yeah, I'm sorry I'm late, sweetie.
811
00:59:38,121 --> 00:59:41,791
Well, you missed the soggy crab cakes
and the California champagne.
812
00:59:41,874 --> 00:59:44,251
- Well, you look beautiful, though.
- Thank you.
813
00:59:44,377 --> 00:59:46,921
- Hey, here's John.
- There he is.
814
00:59:47,046 --> 00:59:49,423
- Hi. - Hi, how ya doin'?
- I'm good. You? - You okay?
815
00:59:49,548 --> 00:59:53,927
- Yeah, everything's good.
- You free on Sunday, maybe
for some tennis or whatever?
816
00:59:54,011 --> 00:59:56,555
Uh, yeah. Maybe.
817
01:00:01,101 --> 01:00:03,228
Rick?
818
01:00:03,312 --> 01:00:06,648
- They spent hundreds of thousands
on the building alone.
- Governor? Governor?
819
01:00:06,773 --> 01:00:09,776
- Excuse me, sir. Hi. Um, I'd like to...
- Mr Hayes.
820
01:00:09,860 --> 01:00:12,070
- Yes, sir.
- Clemency.
- Yes.
821
01:00:12,153 --> 01:00:14,906
You fellas did a mighty
fine job on the Reese case.
822
01:00:15,031 --> 01:00:18,201
- Thank you, sir. I'd like to talk to you
about Cindy Liggett.
- Liggett?
823
01:00:18,284 --> 01:00:22,121
- Yes. I urge you to reconsider. - Oh, not now.
- I believe that this woman deserves clemency as well.
824
01:00:22,205 --> 01:00:24,415
- This is completely inappropriate.
- It's all right.
- No, it isn't all right.
825
01:00:24,540 --> 01:00:27,627
- We'll talk tomorrow in my office.
John, set that up.
- She had ineffective counsel.
826
01:00:27,752 --> 01:00:29,712
- She should've been given a life sentence.
- I'm sorry.
- Shut up.
827
01:00:29,795 --> 01:00:32,465
- Prison is the only stable environment...
- This is difficult for all of us, Mr Hayes.
828
01:00:32,548 --> 01:00:36,051
- That this woman has ever known. Her life outside...
- Rick, come on.
- John, let go of me.
829
01:00:36,135 --> 01:00:39,305
Her life outside was a nightmare.
She's changed. She's grown.
830
01:00:39,388 --> 01:00:43,767
She's a different person now. Now,
we're... we're not settin' an example here.
831
01:00:43,892 --> 01:00:47,563
We never gave her a chance to become
like us, sir! We've become like her.
832
01:00:47,646 --> 01:00:50,732
You have an eloquent tongue, Mr Hayes.
Must run in the family.
833
01:00:50,816 --> 01:00:54,486
- Well, Cindy Liggett didn't have a chance,
sir. And if you'd just...
- Now, you've had your turn!
834
01:00:54,611 --> 01:00:57,948
Now, the rule of law demands that
this girl receive the maximum penalty
for what she did.
835
01:00:58,073 --> 01:01:01,034
- Governor, you...
- May I finish?
836
01:01:01,117 --> 01:01:05,121
- Yes.
- Now, if you don't like this particular law,
by all means, change it.
837
01:01:05,205 --> 01:01:09,500
But in the meantime, it's my sworn duty
as governor to uphold the laws
as I find them.
838
01:01:09,625 --> 01:01:13,212
You understand? You just pour
yourself a good, stiff drink.
839
01:01:13,337 --> 01:01:17,008
- Enjoy the rest of the party
with your brother John.
- Sir.
840
01:01:17,091 --> 01:01:20,761
- Let's go.
- Mark, I'm sorry about that.
Now, the building...
841
01:01:20,845 --> 01:01:23,848
Young turks.
842
01:01:23,973 --> 01:01:27,393
- I hope you know what you just did.
- John, the man pulls the switch.
Bottom line.
843
01:01:27,476 --> 01:01:30,229
- Quiet. Quiet. Quiet. Quiet.
- Look, I don't care who hears this.
844
01:01:30,312 --> 01:01:33,565
- What the hell is wrong with you?
- For what? Do you think this is about me?
845
01:01:33,649 --> 01:01:35,359
- Do you know what you're doing?
- Yeah.
846
01:01:35,442 --> 01:01:38,195
- You're ruining your life and mine too.
- What about her life?
847
01:01:38,278 --> 01:01:40,405
- You can't change what's gonna happen.
- Then you try and stop me.
848
01:01:40,530 --> 01:01:42,407
- I'm trying. Believe me, I'm trying.
- Uh-huh.
849
01:01:42,532 --> 01:01:45,702
I kept you from being disbarred after
that mess with Dad, but I don't know.
850
01:01:45,827 --> 01:01:48,913
- You've got me on this one, brother.
- What are you talkin' about?
851
01:01:48,997 --> 01:01:53,710
- John, you think this is about us?
You and me?
- You tell me.
852
01:01:53,793 --> 01:01:58,089
You are so way off. This is the first thing
ever that is not about you and me.
853
01:02:08,557 --> 01:02:11,310
I figured I'd save you
the trouble.
854
01:02:13,354 --> 01:02:15,397
I'm sorry.
855
01:02:15,481 --> 01:02:19,693
Don't be.
And congratulations on Reese.
856
01:02:21,069 --> 01:02:26,033
You were right.
There's a first time for everything.
857
01:02:26,116 --> 01:02:29,536
She has unlimited visiting time.
You know that, don't you?
858
01:02:29,619 --> 01:02:33,873
Then I'd better get goin'.
Sam, thanks.
859
01:02:33,957 --> 01:02:37,127
- Thanks?
- Hey, I don't regret anything
that's happened here.
860
01:02:37,210 --> 01:02:40,380
It's the next four days
I'm worried about.
861
01:02:41,923 --> 01:02:44,842
I wish I could tell you
something that would help, but...
862
01:02:44,926 --> 01:02:48,095
- Well, there is somethin' you could do.
- What's that?
863
01:02:48,221 --> 01:02:50,348
Well, her brother's up
at Walkerton Work Camp.
864
01:02:50,473 --> 01:02:54,643
Now, if you could get him a visit with her,
that would mean a lot.
865
01:02:54,727 --> 01:02:58,230
- I'll see what I can do.
- Well, that'd be great.
866
01:02:58,314 --> 01:03:00,524
- See y'all.
- Bye, Rick.
867
01:03:17,791 --> 01:03:20,877
- Hey, how's it goin'?
- I tried to reach you at the office.
868
01:03:21,002 --> 01:03:23,296
- We heard on the appeal?
- We got turned down.
869
01:03:23,421 --> 01:03:25,799
- Shit!
- This came this morning.
870
01:03:25,882 --> 01:03:28,509
- No hearing, nothing. Just a ruling.
- Man.
871
01:03:28,593 --> 01:03:33,056
Our next move should be Judge Gorman
on the Federal Court of Appeals.
He's a good guy.
872
01:03:33,181 --> 01:03:35,141
- Who's that, Gorman?
- Yeah, Gorman.
873
01:03:35,266 --> 01:03:38,603
- They're in recess now.
Can you track him down?
- Yeah, l-I'll get to work on it.
874
01:03:38,686 --> 01:03:42,982
Look, uh, you should know I left the job.
I have no authority any more.
875
01:03:43,065 --> 01:03:47,528
Well, great. Now that you're no longer a
third-rate bureaucrat, you can really help.
876
01:03:47,611 --> 01:03:49,905
Well, let's hope so.
877
01:03:51,573 --> 01:03:54,660
Mrs Gorman, I promise you I would not be
calling you at your home at this hour...
878
01:03:54,785 --> 01:03:56,745
if it weren't urgent.
879
01:03:56,870 --> 01:04:00,624
No, l-I understand. It's-It's...
It's his vacation, but...
880
01:04:00,749 --> 01:04:04,252
Well... No, I'm...
I'm sorry, but...
881
01:04:04,377 --> 01:04:06,504
Well, all right.
882
01:04:06,630 --> 01:04:10,133
Uh, look, I'm sorry
to have bothered you.
883
01:04:11,468 --> 01:04:14,470
- Hi.
- Remember me?
884
01:04:14,596 --> 01:04:17,056
I've got a fully-stocked bar now.
885
01:04:19,475 --> 01:04:22,812
Uh, this is for you.
886
01:04:22,937 --> 01:04:25,064
He's a family friend...
887
01:04:25,147 --> 01:04:28,734
and, uh, I guess
you'll be lookin' for a job.
888
01:04:31,278 --> 01:04:36,158
- Senator Paul Hagan?
- He's looking for a new legislative aide.
889
01:04:36,241 --> 01:04:38,952
He's expecting your call.
890
01:04:39,036 --> 01:04:42,456
- No strings.
- No strings?
891
01:04:42,581 --> 01:04:46,668
Well, I figure if you can
chase a lost cause, so can I.
892
01:04:47,836 --> 01:04:49,880
I mean, uh...
893
01:04:53,091 --> 01:04:57,387
What are you doin'?
I don't understand.
894
01:04:57,512 --> 01:04:59,556
You're just...
You're throwing it away. L...
895
01:04:59,681 --> 01:05:04,394
Is it some kind of...
romantic slumming?
896
01:05:04,477 --> 01:05:08,231
- No.
- You're too young for a midlife crisis.
897
01:05:16,906 --> 01:05:20,242
I'm... I'm sorry.
I don't get it.
898
01:05:20,367 --> 01:05:23,203
- Look, Jill...
- No, I gotta go.
899
01:05:29,501 --> 01:05:33,505
- You listen to me, Rick.
You have done more for me...
- No.
900
01:05:33,588 --> 01:05:36,383
- Than anyone ever has.
- Look, it is not over, okay?
901
01:05:36,466 --> 01:05:38,593
- There is a judge on Federal
Court Appeals.
- No.
902
01:05:38,677 --> 01:05:40,470
- Yes.
- No.
903
01:05:40,595 --> 01:05:46,059
I have screwed up a lot of things in my life.
This one I wanna do right.
904
01:05:48,895 --> 01:05:53,066
Now, I want you to
get me somethin'. Okay?
905
01:05:53,149 --> 01:05:55,026
Okay.
906
01:05:57,820 --> 01:06:00,990
It's not so bad.
907
01:06:01,073 --> 01:06:03,034
What isn't?
908
01:06:04,160 --> 01:06:07,413
Knowin' what comes next.
909
01:06:11,250 --> 01:06:14,169
What do you think
about this one?
910
01:06:14,253 --> 01:06:16,797
Uh, it's...
It's fancy too.
911
01:06:16,922 --> 01:06:18,799
I don't think it's that fancy.
912
01:06:18,924 --> 01:06:22,678
Well, l-I just... It's something
simple, you know? Like, uh...
913
01:06:22,761 --> 01:06:26,014
What exactly does
she need it for?
914
01:06:26,139 --> 01:06:28,433
It doesn't matter.
915
01:06:34,856 --> 01:06:37,775
What about this one?
It's simple.
916
01:06:40,945 --> 01:06:43,406
Yeah.
917
01:06:51,122 --> 01:06:54,208
I mean, would you donate
two dollars if you had two?
918
01:06:54,291 --> 01:06:58,837
- This is the third time she's
done this to me.
- It's about time someone told her.
919
01:07:00,464 --> 01:07:02,841
Well, I'm sorry.
920
01:07:02,925 --> 01:07:06,678
There was nothing you or I
could've done. It's the system.
921
01:07:07,638 --> 01:07:10,891
Well, we're the system.
922
01:07:12,225 --> 01:07:16,771
Aw, wait a minute.
Why not let it go?
923
01:07:16,896 --> 01:07:20,942
- You wouldn't understand, John.
- Try me.
924
01:07:21,025 --> 01:07:24,445
Everyone gave up on her.
925
01:07:35,122 --> 01:07:39,168
Meanwhile, the clock continues to count
down for death row inmate Cindy Liggett.
926
01:07:39,293 --> 01:07:41,837
Sometime tomorrow evening, Liggett
is expected to be transferred...
927
01:07:41,962 --> 01:07:46,175
to Men's State Prison, where she will
spend her last 48 hours on deathwatch.
928
01:07:46,300 --> 01:07:49,053
Liggett was convicted of the murders
of Matt McGuire and Debbie Hunt...
929
01:07:49,136 --> 01:07:53,515
in St. Charles 12 years ago, and her
execution has been scheduled
three times.
930
01:07:53,599 --> 01:07:57,019
This time, however, her attorneys'efforts
to achieve a fourth stay...
931
01:07:57,102 --> 01:07:59,229
appear not to have succeeded.
932
01:08:19,999 --> 01:08:22,209
Thank you.
933
01:08:24,962 --> 01:08:28,966
I hear there's some people up in Catesville
who are real eager to see you, Doug.
934
01:08:29,049 --> 01:08:33,762
- I don't know anyone up there.
- It seems Cindy wasn't the only one
you put away when you copped your plea.
935
01:08:33,887 --> 01:08:37,391
You also turned in your dealers.
Now, do you remember that?
936
01:08:37,474 --> 01:08:41,770
- That's news to me.
- Oh, then you won't mind
being transferred, huh?
937
01:08:41,853 --> 01:08:43,647
- What?
- Yeah. It's all arranged.
938
01:08:43,730 --> 01:08:46,483
You see, someone I care about might die
'cause of one lyin' scumbag.
939
01:08:46,608 --> 01:08:50,195
So I'm gonna send that scumbag
to Catesville.
940
01:08:52,405 --> 01:08:55,992
- Do it.
- The two of you were out of
your mind on crack that night.
941
01:08:56,117 --> 01:09:00,914
That fact could've saved her life.
Now, why'd you say it was only beer
and marijuana?
942
01:09:03,666 --> 01:09:07,420
- I'll see you in Catesville.
- Hey, wait, wait, wait, wait.
943
01:09:10,548 --> 01:09:12,925
- What the hell you want?
- I want a statement.
944
01:09:13,050 --> 01:09:15,928
I want to know why you
kept quiet about the drugs.
945
01:09:16,011 --> 01:09:20,307
- Well, they said to.
- Who told you to?
946
01:09:20,432 --> 01:09:22,810
The D.A. Rusk.
947
01:09:24,561 --> 01:09:26,605
The D.A. Instructed you to lie?
948
01:09:30,150 --> 01:09:35,530
- And you won't get me moved?
- You sign this affidavit.
949
01:09:35,614 --> 01:09:40,410
- Clemency Office.
- Hi, Helen. It's Rick. Did you have
any luck finding thejudge?
950
01:09:40,493 --> 01:09:44,706
Yeah. Um, he's at the Gulf Winds Fishing
Camp somewhere near Marquesa Lake.
951
01:09:44,831 --> 01:09:47,542
- But there's no phone.
- How'd you track him down there?
952
01:09:47,625 --> 01:09:51,546
Well, Sam...
Sam says good luck.
953
01:09:51,671 --> 01:09:54,132
- Tell Sam thank you.
- You're welcome, Rick. Bye.
954
01:10:06,143 --> 01:10:08,604
You won't be able
to take those.
955
01:10:08,729 --> 01:10:12,399
- Why not?
- It's a part of the procedure.
956
01:10:12,524 --> 01:10:16,528
- What harm is a few drawings gonna do?
- I'm sorry, Cindy.
957
01:10:32,293 --> 01:10:35,713
- Hey, Reg.
- Hey, baby girl.
958
01:10:38,633 --> 01:10:41,469
Why'd you shave your head?
959
01:10:41,552 --> 01:10:46,849
It's for you, girl. Nothing left to lose.
You know what I mean?
960
01:10:49,894 --> 01:10:52,688
You keep the faith now.
961
01:10:56,066 --> 01:10:58,026
Bye.
962
01:10:58,110 --> 01:11:00,237
All right, Cindy.
963
01:13:59,535 --> 01:14:02,079
Miss Liggett?
964
01:14:02,162 --> 01:14:04,456
I'm Warden Laverty.
965
01:14:04,581 --> 01:14:08,001
This is Reverend Cummins.
966
01:14:08,127 --> 01:14:11,213
Officer Mulkey
will be right here.
967
01:14:11,296 --> 01:14:16,635
Anything you want from the canteen
in the way of sodas or candy,
just let her know.
968
01:14:16,718 --> 01:14:20,639
- And she'll also have a TV hooked up
for you to watch.
- No TVs.
969
01:14:21,848 --> 01:14:24,851
That's okay too.
970
01:14:24,976 --> 01:14:28,897
We will need for you to change
into that blue uniform there.
971
01:14:31,190 --> 01:14:33,568
Cindy, I'm on 24-hour call.
972
01:14:33,651 --> 01:14:36,988
I'll come to you
whenever you want.
973
01:14:37,071 --> 01:14:41,075
Okay. Well...
974
01:14:41,158 --> 01:14:44,745
we're going to try to make you
as comfortable as possible.
975
01:14:44,870 --> 01:14:47,248
Thanks.
976
01:15:40,174 --> 01:15:43,260
Okay, c'mon. Let's go.
977
01:15:44,803 --> 01:15:47,097
Get your ass outta the car.
978
01:15:48,432 --> 01:15:51,309
They go to the beach
every weekend.
979
01:16:07,742 --> 01:16:11,078
- They got a V.C.R.
- Yeah, I'll get it.
980
01:16:38,480 --> 01:16:40,690
Shit!
981
01:16:42,108 --> 01:16:44,861
Oh, it's you, you fuckin' whore.
982
01:16:44,945 --> 01:16:47,322
Get outta my house.
Get outta my house!
983
01:16:47,447 --> 01:16:51,201
Get outta here, you thievin' whore!
Get outta my house!
984
01:17:17,184 --> 01:17:19,728
There it is.
985
01:18:03,270 --> 01:18:05,898
Judge Gorman!
986
01:18:05,981 --> 01:18:08,984
Goddam it, Will! What the hell
are you doin' here anyway?
987
01:18:09,109 --> 01:18:10,819
- Judge Gorman?
- Yes.
988
01:18:10,902 --> 01:18:13,447
Your Honour, I'm sorry.
My name is Rick Hayes...
989
01:18:13,572 --> 01:18:17,409
and I have a motion from State Legal Aid
to stay the execution of Cindy Liggett...
990
01:18:17,492 --> 01:18:21,079
which is scheduled for 12.01 a.m.
This Saturday, tomorrow night.
991
01:18:21,204 --> 01:18:24,791
Now, attached here you'll find
a witness's statement...
992
01:18:24,874 --> 01:18:29,671
- that the prosecution attempted
to suppress evidence.
- All right, all right. I know the case.
993
01:18:29,796 --> 01:18:32,965
Well, once you've read it, when might
we expect to hear from you?
994
01:18:33,091 --> 01:18:35,801
I'll radio my ruling back
from the ranger station.
995
01:18:35,885 --> 01:18:38,429
Thank you, sir.
All right.
996
01:18:38,554 --> 01:18:40,765
Thank you.
997
01:18:44,310 --> 01:18:47,563
DDKnews time, 12. 14.
In other news,
998
01:18:47,688 --> 01:18:50,232
prison officials continue
preparations for the execution...
999
01:18:50,315 --> 01:18:52,443
of double-murderer Cindy Liggett.
1000
01:18:52,568 --> 01:18:56,613
Unless a stay is issued, Liggett is
scheduled to die in less than 24 hours.
1001
01:19:21,345 --> 01:19:25,433
I found that judge.
I think he might help us.
1002
01:19:41,823 --> 01:19:44,618
- You gonna stay?
- Yeah.
1003
01:19:46,411 --> 01:19:49,122
To the end?
1004
01:19:52,375 --> 01:19:54,419
When I go,
will you be there?
1005
01:19:58,506 --> 01:20:01,301
It's too much to ask, huh?
1006
01:20:01,384 --> 01:20:03,845
No.
1007
01:20:05,555 --> 01:20:08,724
If it happens, I will be there.
1008
01:20:59,815 --> 01:21:01,942
I'm not a real breakfast person.
1009
01:21:02,026 --> 01:21:05,446
Yeah, I'm just a...
I'm a coffee man myself.
1010
01:21:05,571 --> 01:21:07,781
Me too.
1011
01:21:28,885 --> 01:21:34,307
You see arriving here today some
who are for capital punishment
while others are against it.
1012
01:21:34,432 --> 01:21:38,353
Others are carrying placards
saying "Cindy must die."
1013
01:21:38,478 --> 01:21:41,481
- Kill the bitch.
- Others saying, "Thou shalt not kill."
1014
01:21:59,331 --> 01:22:01,291
She know I'm comin'?
1015
01:22:01,375 --> 01:22:04,336
Well, she's gonna be
glad to see ya.
1016
01:22:15,597 --> 01:22:17,474
Bill?
1017
01:22:20,518 --> 01:22:22,395
Bill.
1018
01:22:24,355 --> 01:22:26,149
Hey.
1019
01:22:26,274 --> 01:22:30,027
- I'm sorry.
- I know.
1020
01:22:30,111 --> 01:22:34,407
I know, but what
you did was right.
1021
01:22:34,490 --> 01:22:38,077
I didn't know this would happen.
If I'd known...
1022
01:22:38,160 --> 01:22:41,664
I'm so glad that you're here.
1023
01:22:45,000 --> 01:22:48,587
# Amazing Grace
1024
01:22:48,712 --> 01:22:53,342
# How sweet the sound
1025
01:22:53,467 --> 01:22:58,180
- That saved a wretch like me
- You know damn well she should die!
1026
01:22:58,305 --> 01:23:02,601
- You over there with that sign! - The
crowd is becoming more and more vocal.
1027
01:23:02,684 --> 01:23:04,644
As the hour of
the execution approaches...
1028
01:23:04,769 --> 01:23:07,939
every man, woman and child
that is gathered here...
1029
01:23:08,022 --> 01:23:10,316
- has some opinion, whether they think...
- Kill her!
1030
01:23:10,441 --> 01:23:13,319
Do you know what you're gonna do
when you get outta there?
1031
01:23:13,403 --> 01:23:15,446
N-No, I'm not sure yet.
1032
01:23:15,571 --> 01:23:17,949
Well, you better start
thinkin' about it.
1033
01:23:18,074 --> 01:23:21,911
You better make some plans. Listen to me.
You're gonna end up right back there.
1034
01:23:26,040 --> 01:23:28,751
- Hello.
- Linda. What's going on? Anything?
1035
01:23:28,834 --> 01:23:31,295
No, he hasn't called yet, Rick.
1036
01:23:31,420 --> 01:23:34,339
All right. What are we gonna do
if he turns us down?
1037
01:23:34,423 --> 01:23:36,717
Only place left is
the U.S. Supreme Court.
1038
01:23:36,800 --> 01:23:39,344
- Well, is there time?
- Not really.
1039
01:23:39,428 --> 01:23:42,931
You need fourJustices to issue a stay.
We'd need at least a day.
1040
01:23:43,056 --> 01:23:47,519
Well, then... then he just better come
through and that damn radio
better work.
1041
01:23:47,602 --> 01:23:51,523
- I hope so.
- Well, do it.
1042
01:23:51,648 --> 01:23:56,027
- All right.
- All right or yes? Look at me.
1043
01:23:56,152 --> 01:24:01,991
You better look me in the eye and say yes,
'cause I'll be watchin' you.
1044
01:24:02,116 --> 01:24:06,829
And I'm tellin' you, if you screw up,
I'm gonna come all the way back here
just to kick your ass.
1045
01:24:19,508 --> 01:24:22,469
- Oh, this is insane.
- I know. I'm sorry.
1046
01:24:22,553 --> 01:24:25,097
I mean, we don't pick up
that goddam signal, she's dead.
1047
01:24:25,222 --> 01:24:27,933
Listen, Rick, we've still got
some time. Don't give up.
1048
01:24:28,016 --> 01:24:30,143
Aw, Linda, he's gotta
come through.
1049
01:24:49,912 --> 01:24:53,833
- Man.
- I decided to stop watchin' my weight.
1050
01:24:56,794 --> 01:24:58,921
Filet mignon.
1051
01:24:59,004 --> 01:25:01,841
Yeah, I always wanted to try it.
1052
01:25:05,803 --> 01:25:09,223
Cindy, did you get
everything you asked for?
1053
01:25:09,348 --> 01:25:11,391
Looks like it.
1054
01:25:11,517 --> 01:25:14,519
Well, it's quite a meal.
1055
01:25:14,645 --> 01:25:17,189
Hope you enjoy it.
1056
01:25:20,066 --> 01:25:23,820
They get so nice
right before they kill ya.
1057
01:25:57,770 --> 01:26:00,063
Hello, Cindy.
1058
01:26:01,732 --> 01:26:04,192
How's that steak?
1059
01:26:04,317 --> 01:26:06,778
Fine... what I had of it.
1060
01:26:09,072 --> 01:26:12,909
Cindy, if you want me,
remember I'm just down the hall.
1061
01:26:12,993 --> 01:26:17,705
Well, right now I feel like I got
everything and everybody I need.
1062
01:26:20,083 --> 01:26:23,836
Oh, they sent these over
from Bridgeland.
1063
01:26:23,920 --> 01:26:26,589
They thought
you should have 'em.
1064
01:26:33,137 --> 01:26:35,431
Thank you.
1065
01:27:01,456 --> 01:27:03,750
Miss Liggett?
1066
01:27:03,875 --> 01:27:07,629
Dr Forrester would like
to see your arms.
1067
01:27:17,763 --> 01:27:20,599
This is hard for everyone.
1068
01:27:20,683 --> 01:27:23,769
We're going to get through
this together.
1069
01:27:25,312 --> 01:27:27,356
- Would you like a sedative?
- No.
1070
01:27:27,481 --> 01:27:31,860
- It's quite common.
- I'm not spendin' my last hour like that.
1071
01:27:31,944 --> 01:27:36,156
- Well, if you change your mind...
- I won't.
1072
01:27:38,325 --> 01:27:41,328
We'll be back
in about five minutes.
1073
01:27:49,836 --> 01:27:52,046
Bill, come here for a minute.
1074
01:27:56,801 --> 01:27:58,928
Now, listen to me.
1075
01:27:59,053 --> 01:28:02,056
We'll always be
brother and sister.
1076
01:28:02,139 --> 01:28:07,186
Nothing can ever
change that. Okay?
1077
01:28:09,980 --> 01:28:12,358
You're in my heart.
1078
01:28:12,483 --> 01:28:15,986
You know that? Hmm?
1079
01:28:22,117 --> 01:28:24,661
Now, you go on, okay?
1080
01:28:29,416 --> 01:28:33,169
- Well... - Look.
- Our timing wasn't exactly the best,
- was it?
1081
01:29:19,089 --> 01:29:21,716
Cindy?
1082
01:31:56,032 --> 01:31:59,952
"I have been directed
at 12.01 a. M...
1083
01:32:00,077 --> 01:32:02,288
"by the Superintendent of Prisons...
1084
01:32:02,413 --> 01:32:06,542
"to cause the sentence of death
to be executed on Cindy Leanne Liggett...
1085
01:32:06,625 --> 01:32:10,838
"by intravenous injection
of a substance or substances...
1086
01:32:10,921 --> 01:32:16,510
"in a lethal quantity sufficient to cause
the death of said Cindy Leanne Liggett...
1087
01:32:16,593 --> 01:32:21,223
and until the said
Cindy Leanne Liggett is dead."
1088
01:32:42,827 --> 01:32:44,954
Warden?
1089
01:32:50,292 --> 01:32:53,129
Yes?
1090
01:32:55,923 --> 01:32:58,801
Yes. Stand down.
Stand down!
1091
01:33:29,205 --> 01:33:31,499
- Calm down. Calm down. It's over! It's over.
- Stop it! Stop it!
1092
01:33:31,624 --> 01:33:35,670
- You've been saved. It's over.
- Stop it! No!
1093
01:33:35,753 --> 01:33:38,214
Cindy. Cindy.
1094
01:33:38,297 --> 01:33:41,383
You're saved. You're saved.
It's over. It's over.
1095
01:33:41,467 --> 01:33:44,470
It's over. It's okay.
1096
01:33:44,553 --> 01:33:49,016
Shh. It's okay.
It's okay. It's okay.
1097
01:33:49,099 --> 01:33:51,560
In a surprise announcement,
Deputy Warden Marvin Heinrich...
1098
01:33:51,643 --> 01:33:55,397
here at Men's State Corrections informed
us just moments ago that the execution...
1099
01:33:55,480 --> 01:33:58,734
of Cindy Liggett scheduled for
12.00 midnight six minutes ago...
1100
01:33:58,859 --> 01:34:02,612
was abruptly cancelled three minutes
before it was to have been carried out.
1101
01:34:02,696 --> 01:34:05,407
We are told Federal District
Court Judge Byron Gorman...
1102
01:34:05,490 --> 01:34:10,036
issued the stay of execution based on
a petition from Miss Liggett's attorneys.
1103
01:34:10,119 --> 01:34:13,122
We have no idea on whether or when
the State will appeal this ruling.
1104
01:34:13,248 --> 01:34:15,917
You can see here we have
protestors on both sides.
1105
01:34:16,000 --> 01:34:18,795
We will follow this big story throughout
the night. This is Peter Bellows...
1106
01:34:27,553 --> 01:34:30,097
We stopped 'em.
1107
01:34:30,181 --> 01:34:33,350
- I can't take any more.
- No, no, come on. You hold on.
1108
01:34:33,475 --> 01:34:36,562
You hold onto me. I'm right
here for you. Come on.
1109
01:34:39,398 --> 01:34:41,358
I saw you.
1110
01:34:42,943 --> 01:34:45,237
I could feel
your eyes on me.
1111
01:34:45,362 --> 01:34:47,656
I know.
1112
01:34:47,781 --> 01:34:50,075
I wasn't scared.
1113
01:34:55,914 --> 01:34:59,834
- Good evening.
- Ah, gentlemen, I think you know
District Attorney Rusk.
1114
01:34:59,918 --> 01:35:02,754
- Pete, sorry to bring you out so late.
- Good to see you, Judge.
1115
01:35:02,879 --> 01:35:05,798
Your Honours, any questions
you might have...
1116
01:35:05,882 --> 01:35:09,802
any information you need,
I brought the files for each of you.
1117
01:35:09,927 --> 01:35:11,804
Thank you.
1118
01:35:54,679 --> 01:35:57,306
So that is their decision?
1119
01:35:58,140 --> 01:36:00,267
Mm-hmm. Hmm.
1120
01:36:06,315 --> 01:36:08,442
Good night.
1121
01:36:19,703 --> 01:36:24,833
Cindy, a special panel
of Federal Court of Appeals...
1122
01:36:24,916 --> 01:36:26,960
- was convened a short while ago.
- Oh, no.
1123
01:36:27,043 --> 01:36:31,422
The stay of execution has been lifted.
We've been ordered to proceed.
1124
01:36:31,548 --> 01:36:34,634
Are you kidding me? Are you kidding me?
What, they couldn't wait?
1125
01:36:34,759 --> 01:36:39,055
- This is...
- Let it go! Please.
1126
01:36:39,180 --> 01:36:43,100
You have got
to let me go now.
1127
01:36:43,226 --> 01:36:45,186
Yes.
1128
01:36:50,858 --> 01:36:53,527
Don't take your eyes off me.
1129
01:38:49,723 --> 01:38:55,228
...built by Shah Jahan
in 1631 to 1653...
1130
01:38:55,353 --> 01:38:59,023
in the memory of his
beloved wife, Mumtaz Mahal.
1131
01:38:59,148 --> 01:39:03,528
And Mumtaz Mahal means "the beautiful
ornament of the palace."
1132
01:39:03,611 --> 01:39:07,031
And she was so beautiful
that Shah Jahan...
1133
01:39:07,156 --> 01:39:09,700
and Shah Jahan
so loved his queen...
1134
01:39:09,784 --> 01:39:13,037
that he commissioned this
building to be as beautiful...
1135
01:39:13,162 --> 01:39:17,541
and inspiring
and graceful as she was...
1136
01:39:17,666 --> 01:39:21,587
that he made in soul
of his love and her beauty.
1137
01:39:21,670 --> 01:39:24,381
# Darling
Don't you understand
1138
01:39:24,464 --> 01:39:26,925
# I feel so ill at ease
1139
01:39:27,050 --> 01:39:29,928
# The room is full of silence
1140
01:39:30,011 --> 01:39:32,848
# And it's getting hard to breathe
1141
01:39:32,973 --> 01:39:36,309
# Take this gilded cage of pain
1142
01:39:36,393 --> 01:39:38,603
# And set me free
1143
01:39:38,728 --> 01:39:42,649
# Take this overcoat of shame
1144
01:39:42,732 --> 01:39:47,862
# It never did belong to me
1145
01:39:59,999 --> 01:40:04,878
# It never did belong to me
1146
01:40:07,881 --> 01:40:10,175
# I need to go outside
1147
01:40:10,259 --> 01:40:12,970
# I need to leave the smoke
1148
01:40:13,053 --> 01:40:15,722
# 'Cause I can't go on living
1149
01:40:15,806 --> 01:40:18,642
# In the same sick joke
1150
01:40:18,725 --> 01:40:21,645
# It seems our lives have taken on
1151
01:40:21,728 --> 01:40:24,564
# A different kind of twist.
1152
01:40:24,689 --> 01:40:28,026
# Now that you have given me
1153
01:40:28,151 --> 01:40:30,904
# The perfect gift
1154
01:40:45,835 --> 01:40:51,423
# You have given me the gift
1155
01:40:54,593 --> 01:40:57,679
# For we have fallen
1156
01:40:57,763 --> 01:41:02,017
# From our shelves
1157
01:41:06,062 --> 01:41:08,607
# To face the truth
1158
01:41:08,732 --> 01:41:13,695
# About ourselves
1159
01:41:17,615 --> 01:41:21,035
# And we have tumbled
1160
01:41:21,119 --> 01:41:25,832
# From our tree
1161
01:41:30,461 --> 01:41:38,177
# Tumbled from our tree
1162
01:41:43,390 --> 01:41:45,601
# And I can almost
1163
01:41:46,935 --> 01:41:50,772
# I can almost hear
the rain fallin
1164
01:41:54,150 --> 01:41:57,070
# Don't you know it feels so good
1165
01:41:57,153 --> 01:41:59,447
# It feels so good
1166
01:42:04,118 --> 01:42:08,831
# So let's go out
into the rain again
1167
01:42:17,131 --> 01:42:21,177
# Just like we said
we always would
