Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:01,334 --> 00:00:04,428
In the criminal justice
system, the people are represented
2
00:00:04,471 --> 00:00:07,031
by two separate yet
equally important groups...
3
00:00:07,073 --> 00:00:08,938
the police
who investigate crime
4
00:00:08,975 --> 00:00:11,944
and the district attorneys
who prosecute the offenders.
5
00:00:11,978 --> 00:00:14,276
These are their stories.
6
00:00:50,699 --> 00:00:52,667
Next stop, 14th Street.
7
00:00:52,619 --> 00:00:54,246
Change for the uptown local.
8
00:02:02,904 --> 00:02:05,668
Next stop, 23rd Street.
9
00:02:15,547 --> 00:02:17,014
Let me through!
10
00:02:19,899 --> 00:02:21,833
Out of the way!
Come on!
11
00:02:28,796 --> 00:02:30,229
Come on, come on!
12
00:02:41,951 --> 00:02:45,079
Station 45? we have a
shooting in car number seven.
13
00:04:11,504 --> 00:04:13,438
I heard there was two.
14
00:04:13,393 --> 00:04:15,156
One's still down there.
15
00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:18,112
They got two detectives
coming down right now.
16
00:04:21,841 --> 00:04:23,706
How you doing, fellas?
17
00:04:31,028 --> 00:04:32,859
Where are we going, Joe?
18
00:04:32,820 --> 00:04:34,310
He's right over there.
19
00:04:39,125 --> 00:04:41,150
Looks like we're in here.
20
00:04:48,374 --> 00:04:50,239
How's this one?
21
00:04:50,199 --> 00:04:52,895
He's okay. Guy doesn't
look so good to me.
22
00:04:52,823 --> 00:04:54,882
You're right,
he'd look better dead...
23
00:04:54,839 --> 00:04:57,535
one less jerk
with a screwdriver.
24
00:04:57,465 --> 00:05:00,263
You see the shooter?
25
00:05:00,185 --> 00:05:02,119
I did.
26
00:05:02,073 --> 00:05:04,041
Could you describe him for me?
27
00:05:03,993 --> 00:05:05,153
Her.
28
00:05:05,146 --> 00:05:06,977
Her?
29
00:05:06,938 --> 00:05:09,236
What did she look like?
30
00:05:09,179 --> 00:05:11,511
A ballerina.
31
00:05:11,451 --> 00:05:12,941
A ballerina?
32
00:05:12,924 --> 00:05:14,789
Oh, yeah.
33
00:05:16,188 --> 00:05:18,213
Talk about
your "nutcracker," huh?
34
00:05:26,750 --> 00:05:28,718
You Jones?
35
00:05:29,822 --> 00:05:31,915
How you feeling?
36
00:05:31,871 --> 00:05:33,634
I didn't do nothing.
37
00:05:33,599 --> 00:05:36,796
Of course you didn't, Michael
- You're a newborn babe.
38
00:05:36,704 --> 00:05:39,730
What you want with me?
Your speedy recovery,
39
00:05:39,648 --> 00:05:41,878
so you might have
a happy productive life.
40
00:05:41,825 --> 00:05:43,952
Actually...
41
00:05:44,833 --> 00:05:46,960
we're on your side, Michael.
42
00:05:46,914 --> 00:05:49,109
Why'd she shoot you?
43
00:05:49,058 --> 00:05:51,185
I don't know, man.
44
00:05:53,187 --> 00:05:55,815
The chick must be going
crazy or something.
45
00:05:55,747 --> 00:05:58,079
What did Darnell do, then?
46
00:05:58,019 --> 00:05:59,350
Nothing.
47
00:05:59,332 --> 00:06:01,232
Nothing?
48
00:06:01,189 --> 00:06:03,350
We heard he was coming
onto her pretty strong.
49
00:06:03,301 --> 00:06:06,168
Whoever told you that is lying.
50
00:06:06,085 --> 00:06:08,713
My partner asked her
for some apple...
51
00:06:08,646 --> 00:06:10,876
and she shot him.
52
00:06:10,822 --> 00:06:12,016
It's that simple.
53
00:06:12,006 --> 00:06:14,634
Asked, or demanded?
54
00:06:14,567 --> 00:06:16,535
Asked.
55
00:06:16,487 --> 00:06:19,285
Besides, why'd she
shoot me, huh?
56
00:06:19,208 --> 00:06:21,506
I didn't do
a damn thing to her.
57
00:06:21,448 --> 00:06:24,542
I was just sitting down
doing nothing, man.
58
00:06:26,857 --> 00:06:30,088
Listen, Michael,
now listen real good.
59
00:06:29,994 --> 00:06:33,760
If the lady popped you two
'cause you were "mau-mauing" her,
60
00:06:33,642 --> 00:06:35,667
and they put her on trial,
61
00:06:35,627 --> 00:06:37,219
I'll testify for her.
62
00:06:37,195 --> 00:06:39,060
But if you're telling
the truth...
63
00:06:39,019 --> 00:06:41,510
if you're telling the truth
I'll haul her into that court
64
00:06:41,452 --> 00:06:44,046
and nail her
for attempted murder.
65
00:06:43,980 --> 00:06:47,177
I am telling the truth.
66
00:06:48,237 --> 00:06:51,536
Like I got a real
good chance of proving it.
67
00:06:57,455 --> 00:06:59,855
Got a bleeder here.
Hemostat. Here you go.
68
00:06:59,791 --> 00:07:01,656
Tie him off. Come on,
come on. Get the lead out.
69
00:07:01,616 --> 00:07:02,844
What's the hurry?
70
00:07:02,832 --> 00:07:04,925
This guy won't be
running a marathon.
71
00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:06,745
Can you see all right?
72
00:07:08,529 --> 00:07:09,587
Wrap it up.
73
00:07:15,282 --> 00:07:16,806
You recover a slug?
74
00:07:16,787 --> 00:07:20,086
Two. One in the subway,
one in Chenault's lower back.
75
00:07:19,987 --> 00:07:22,455
That's a start.
Any leads on the gunman?
76
00:07:22,387 --> 00:07:23,820
Gunwoman.
77
00:07:24,916 --> 00:07:26,747
Gunperson.
78
00:07:26,708 --> 00:07:28,175
A lot of phone calls.
79
00:07:28,149 --> 00:07:29,616
Uh-huh. who from?
80
00:07:29,588 --> 00:07:32,079
Bunch of psycho sisters.
Each one...
81
00:07:32,021 --> 00:07:33,648
claiming to be
the "Avenging Angel."
82
00:07:33,621 --> 00:07:35,486
Oh great, that is great.
83
00:07:35,445 --> 00:07:38,141
Who's calling her that?
It's already on the radio.
84
00:07:38,070 --> 00:07:40,038
Why do you think we're
getting all these volunteers?
85
00:07:39,990 --> 00:07:41,457
Maybe they can relate to her.
86
00:07:41,431 --> 00:07:43,695
They'd like to peddle their
life story to the highest bidder.
87
00:07:43,639 --> 00:07:45,402
I don't want the press
going into a feeding frenzy.
88
00:07:45,368 --> 00:07:49,202
You mean, like, "Babe
Drop dead"?
89
00:07:49,081 --> 00:07:50,412
Maybe we should deputize her.
90
00:07:50,393 --> 00:07:52,156
Just find her.
91
00:07:54,586 --> 00:07:56,383
- Positive
- He was grinding himself
92
00:07:56,346 --> 00:07:57,836
right in that woman's face.
93
00:07:57,818 --> 00:07:59,809
What about the other
one? He was just as bad,
94
00:07:59,770 --> 00:08:02,330
but I kept my attention on
the one who was pushing on her.
95
00:08:02,267 --> 00:08:05,236
Are you willing to testify in
court to what you've told us?
96
00:08:05,148 --> 00:08:06,911
Of course.
97
00:08:06,875 --> 00:08:10,538
A lot of people develop
short-term memory loss these days.
98
00:08:10,428 --> 00:08:12,157
I'm not afraid
of punks like that.
99
00:08:12,125 --> 00:08:14,491
I dealt with worse
when I taught fifth grade.
100
00:08:14,429 --> 00:08:16,590
Mrs. Hastings,
101
00:08:18,142 --> 00:08:19,575
the woman who did the shooting,
102
00:08:19,550 --> 00:08:21,711
she's the one
that we're looking for.
103
00:08:21,662 --> 00:08:23,892
Well, you shouldn't be.
When you find her
104
00:08:23,839 --> 00:08:26,034
I hope she gets a medal.
105
00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:32,382
"Midtown Dance Club."
I think that's what it was.
106
00:08:32,256 --> 00:08:34,588
"Manhattan."
107
00:08:34,528 --> 00:08:36,519
You have good eyes. You
got to pay attention...
108
00:08:36,481 --> 00:08:38,972
Chaz- That's how come
I seen the ice pick.
109
00:08:38,913 --> 00:08:41,177
Ice pick?
What ice pick?
110
00:08:41,122 --> 00:08:43,283
The one with the Yankees cap.
111
00:08:43,234 --> 00:08:45,031
Look, I'm a Mets fan,
I hate the Yankees,
112
00:08:44,994 --> 00:08:47,622
and he's waving an ice pick.
I'm thinking, "what's this for?
113
00:08:47,555 --> 00:08:49,989
It's all automatic
ice cubes now."
114
00:08:49,924 --> 00:08:51,949
we heard it was a screwdriver.
115
00:08:51,908 --> 00:08:55,105
I seen what I seen.
116
00:08:56,933 --> 00:09:00,027
You really think we like
these two dirtbags?
117
00:08:59,941 --> 00:09:01,340
So what's your problem?
118
00:09:01,318 --> 00:09:04,617
Shooting people you don't like
is a big problem.
119
00:09:04,518 --> 00:09:06,748
Unless you're
defending your own self.
120
00:09:06,695 --> 00:09:09,960
Are you saying it was
self-defense? I seen what I seen.
121
00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:17,957
Why do I get the feeling
we're on the wrong side here?
122
00:09:17,865 --> 00:09:19,526
'Cause you're thinking
like a civilian.
123
00:09:19,497 --> 00:09:22,091
Oh yeah, right.
I should've known better.
124
00:09:22,025 --> 00:09:23,458
Hey, don't worry, Max,
125
00:09:23,434 --> 00:09:25,595
next time I'll be
a good little German.
126
00:09:25,546 --> 00:09:27,446
You got a wise mouth.
127
00:09:27,403 --> 00:09:28,665
Oh yeah?
Yeah.
128
00:09:28,650 --> 00:09:31,380
What, you want every fruitcake
on the BMT packing six on his hip?
129
00:09:31,307 --> 00:09:33,275
'Course I don't want that,
I just think those...
130
00:09:33,228 --> 00:09:34,661
Don't think!
131
00:09:34,636 --> 00:09:36,501
The city ain't
a free-fire zone.
132
00:09:38,381 --> 00:09:39,814
Gimme a...
133
00:09:39,789 --> 00:09:41,916
turn, turn,
134
00:09:41,869 --> 00:09:44,201
and port de bras.
135
00:09:45,358 --> 00:09:47,553
Okay, let's take five.
136
00:09:48,814 --> 00:09:50,611
Miss Putterman?
Mm-hmm.
137
00:09:50,574 --> 00:09:52,565
I'm Detective Logan.
I called you before.
138
00:09:52,527 --> 00:09:54,961
Yes, I told you, it
sounds like Laura di Biasi.
139
00:09:54,896 --> 00:09:56,022
You got her address?
140
00:09:56,016 --> 00:09:58,507
What do I look like,
a phone book?
141
00:09:58,449 --> 00:10:00,110
In Manhattan.
142
00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:02,514
Okay, everybody,
let's take it again.
143
00:10:02,449 --> 00:10:04,883
Yes, I am aware...
144
00:10:04,818 --> 00:10:06,877
okay, I'm aware it's unlisted.
145
00:10:06,834 --> 00:10:09,803
I told you for the 1 Oth time,
I'm a police officer.
146
00:10:09,715 --> 00:10:12,149
Let's get this straight-
Detective Mike Logan,
147
00:10:12,083 --> 00:10:14,210
Badge number nine...
148
00:10:14,163 --> 00:10:16,654
warrant, huh? warrant
this, lady, all right?
149
00:10:16,596 --> 00:10:18,826
I need a warrant, it's
going to take me three hours.
150
00:10:18,772 --> 00:10:20,797
Now you listen to me.
You listen to me!
151
00:10:22,068 --> 00:10:24,298
Hold on.
152
00:10:26,261 --> 00:10:29,958
Hi. To whom am I speaking, please?
153
00:10:31,766 --> 00:10:33,859
Hello, Miss Schweder,
154
00:10:33,815 --> 00:10:35,874
this is Sergeant Greevey.
155
00:10:35,831 --> 00:10:38,299
Could you connect me with
your central office supervisor?
156
00:10:38,231 --> 00:10:40,256
Maybe we can straighten
some of this out.
157
00:10:41,753 --> 00:10:43,948
Thank you so much.
158
00:10:43,896 --> 00:10:46,194
Chenault's got
priors up the ying-yang.
159
00:10:46,137 --> 00:10:48,605
Nothing on Jones.
Nothing?
160
00:10:48,537 --> 00:10:52,268
Computer came up with 12
felons named "Michael Jones,"
161
00:10:52,154 --> 00:10:54,520
"Michael J.,
Michael Ray"...
162
00:10:54,458 --> 00:10:56,517
"Michael T."
163
00:10:56,475 --> 00:10:58,602
I hate walk-ups.
164
00:10:58,555 --> 00:11:00,352
No positive make on our own
165
00:11:00,315 --> 00:11:02,715
"Michael
no-middle-initial Jones."
166
00:11:02,652 --> 00:11:04,745
Zippo.
167
00:11:04,701 --> 00:11:07,067
Nobody home...
168
00:11:07,005 --> 00:11:08,734
down the stairs.
169
00:11:11,902 --> 00:11:13,893
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
170
00:11:18,015 --> 00:11:20,506
Ahem!
Oh!
171
00:11:20,447 --> 00:11:23,041
Excuse me. It's all right,
ma'am. we're the police.
172
00:11:22,976 --> 00:11:25,410
Do you knowwhere the lady
who lives there is?
173
00:11:25,344 --> 00:11:27,244
Miss di Biasi?
174
00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:29,327
She works
at Murray Hill Hospital.
175
00:11:29,281 --> 00:11:30,942
I'm the Chief
Administrator in this place,
176
00:11:30,913 --> 00:11:32,278
and I've told you twice...
177
00:11:32,257 --> 00:11:34,953
You don't discuss personnel.
178
00:11:34,882 --> 00:11:37,908
I'm telling you, I'm not
interested in a discussion!
179
00:11:37,827 --> 00:11:40,125
I want to know where she is!
180
00:11:45,156 --> 00:11:47,215
She's working in Radiology.
181
00:11:49,317 --> 00:11:50,909
Miss di Biasi?
182
00:11:50,885 --> 00:11:53,718
Sergeant Greevey,
Detective Logan.
183
00:11:53,637 --> 00:11:55,969
We'd like to ask you
a few questions.
184
00:11:57,318 --> 00:12:00,583
Yeah, I imagine you would.
185
00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:03,291
I felt threatened.
186
00:12:03,272 --> 00:12:05,763
It's a threatening city.
187
00:12:05,704 --> 00:12:08,639
I felt I had to defend
myself. Is that a crime?
188
00:12:08,552 --> 00:12:10,349
That's what we're
trying to determine.
189
00:12:10,312 --> 00:12:13,042
Why'd you run?
190
00:12:12,969 --> 00:12:15,028
Because I was freaked out.
191
00:12:14,986 --> 00:12:17,420
Okay, we can appreciate that,
192
00:12:18,506 --> 00:12:20,235
but where'd you get the gun?
193
00:12:20,203 --> 00:12:22,068
Somebody gave it to Boyfriend?
194
00:12:22,027 --> 00:12:24,723
Somebody. I don't
know, it was years ago.
195
00:12:24,652 --> 00:12:26,643
Meaning it's probably
unlicensed.
196
00:12:30,380 --> 00:12:33,110
Okay...
197
00:12:33,037 --> 00:12:34,402
what did you do with it?
198
00:12:34,381 --> 00:12:36,508
I guess I threw it. "Guess"?
199
00:12:36,462 --> 00:12:38,930
I dropped it down
there. In the subway?
200
00:12:38,862 --> 00:12:40,489
Yeah.
201
00:12:40,463 --> 00:12:43,990
Listen, are you sure you
don't want to call your lawyer?
202
00:12:43,887 --> 00:12:45,718
My lawyer?
203
00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:49,012
Do I look like I could afford
to have a personal lawyer?
204
00:12:48,912 --> 00:12:52,109
Anyway, I don't need one.
I haven't done anything wrong.
205
00:12:52,016 --> 00:12:54,041
I wouldn't count on that.
206
00:13:00,690 --> 00:13:04,319
Are you arresting me?
207
00:13:06,548 --> 00:13:08,846
Not at the present time.
208
00:13:08,787 --> 00:13:11,119
But if we do arrest you,
209
00:13:11,060 --> 00:13:14,257
a lawyer will be
provided for you at no cost.
210
00:13:21,814 --> 00:13:23,839
Why are we busting her chops?
211
00:13:23,798 --> 00:13:25,026
That the way you see it?
212
00:13:25,015 --> 00:13:26,812
Two kids jump her
on the subway,
213
00:13:26,775 --> 00:13:28,709
she defends herself, okay?
214
00:13:28,663 --> 00:13:30,130
We're not talking
about "Squeaky" Fromme here.
215
00:13:30,103 --> 00:13:31,900
We don't know that. we don't?
216
00:13:31,864 --> 00:13:34,856
Look, she did the shooting,
that makes her the perp.
217
00:13:34,776 --> 00:13:36,676
That's all I know.
218
00:13:36,633 --> 00:13:38,897
What, you want
to do her or something?
219
00:13:38,842 --> 00:13:40,810
Hey, hey...
220
00:13:40,762 --> 00:13:42,593
it's all that simple, huh?
221
00:13:42,554 --> 00:13:43,919
When it comes to the
law, it better be.
222
00:13:43,898 --> 00:13:45,661
Jones doesn't
even have a record.
223
00:13:45,626 --> 00:13:47,491
He say he was sitting down
when she shot him.
224
00:13:47,451 --> 00:13:51,046
Yeah, and he's such an
innocent-looking guy, Max.
225
00:13:50,939 --> 00:13:52,998
Oh, that's terrific.
226
00:13:52,956 --> 00:13:56,255
"You're under arrest
for looking guilty."
227
00:13:56,157 --> 00:13:57,749
That's a cheap shot.
228
00:13:57,725 --> 00:14:00,421
The hell it is. That kind of
thinking, you can't do the job.
229
00:14:00,349 --> 00:14:02,783
When it comes to the law,
everybody's the same.
230
00:14:02,718 --> 00:14:05,414
That's when it works-
when everybody's the same.
231
00:14:05,342 --> 00:14:07,810
It's like football-
you hold somebody,
232
00:14:07,743 --> 00:14:09,233
you get caught, it's a penalty.
233
00:14:09,214 --> 00:14:10,841
Doesn't matter whether
you're Billy Sims
234
00:14:10,815 --> 00:14:12,874
or some rookie
for East Podunk State.
235
00:14:17,537 --> 00:14:19,835
She admitted that
she did the shooting...
236
00:14:19,776 --> 00:14:22,108
it's on videotape.
237
00:14:22,050 --> 00:14:25,213
She also says, "Yes, I wanted
to kill them, to hurt them."
238
00:14:25,122 --> 00:14:27,716
Isn't that enough? You want
to arrest her on the Sullivan?
239
00:14:27,651 --> 00:14:30,415
A gun charge is pretty lame,
don't you think?
240
00:14:30,338 --> 00:14:32,135
It's still mandatory jail time.
241
00:14:32,099 --> 00:14:36,365
She fired into a crowded
subway car, for God's sakes!
242
00:14:36,228 --> 00:14:37,593
You want to go
for attempted murder,
243
00:14:37,572 --> 00:14:39,437
you're going to need a formal
statement from the other vic...
244
00:14:39,396 --> 00:14:40,488
Mr. Chenois.
245
00:14:42,437 --> 00:14:45,736
That's Chenault.
Darnell Chenault.
246
00:14:45,638 --> 00:14:47,367
Whatever.
247
00:14:49,958 --> 00:14:53,359
Chenault's been upgraded.
Room 322.
248
00:14:53,255 --> 00:14:56,713
Jones? Jones is in 324,
but you better hurry.
249
00:14:56,616 --> 00:14:58,675
Excuse me, ma'am.
250
00:14:59,752 --> 00:15:02,016
Dr. Garcia,
pick up your messages...
251
00:15:01,961 --> 00:15:03,826
Look here.
252
00:15:05,450 --> 00:15:07,008
Michael Jones?
253
00:15:06,985 --> 00:15:08,953
Used to be.
254
00:15:10,122 --> 00:15:11,987
I don't want
a shot, sweetheart,
255
00:15:11,946 --> 00:15:13,573
I want to get
out of this damn bed.
256
00:15:13,546 --> 00:15:15,912
That's not going to
happen for a while, Damell.
257
00:15:15,851 --> 00:15:17,318
So just take it easy.
258
00:15:17,291 --> 00:15:19,418
Take it easy? Hey, baby,
259
00:15:19,372 --> 00:15:21,966
give me some decent drugs
if you want me to take it easy.
260
00:15:21,900 --> 00:15:23,868
Nicely, Darnell, nicely.
261
00:15:23,821 --> 00:15:25,618
What are you so upset about?
262
00:15:25,581 --> 00:15:28,277
Man, they say I'm going
to be paralyzed, man.
263
00:15:28,205 --> 00:15:31,868
Dumb mothers give me
freaking aspirin with codeine.
264
00:15:33,774 --> 00:15:36,038
You a new specialist?
265
00:15:35,983 --> 00:15:38,918
Sergeant Greevey,
Detective Logan.
266
00:15:38,831 --> 00:15:40,992
Yeah, Darnell,
just the facts, okay?
267
00:15:40,944 --> 00:15:43,412
The facts is,
why'd the bitch shoot me?!
268
00:15:43,344 --> 00:15:45,005
I didn't do nothing.
269
00:15:44,977 --> 00:15:46,672
Reckless endangerment?
270
00:15:46,641 --> 00:15:49,735
That tells the jury
the girl was a little upset,
271
00:15:49,649 --> 00:15:53,141
but so long as no innocent bystanders
were hit, there's no problem.
272
00:15:53,042 --> 00:15:54,907
There's something
to that, isn't there?
273
00:15:54,867 --> 00:15:56,767
I got a subway
full of eyewitnesses
274
00:15:56,723 --> 00:15:58,315
who claims they saw
one of the victims
275
00:15:58,291 --> 00:15:59,952
accost Miss di Biasi-
threaten her.
276
00:15:59,924 --> 00:16:02,290
With his hand on his
crotch? with a screwdriver!
277
00:16:02,228 --> 00:16:04,093
Or with an ice-pick,
or a pick axe.
278
00:16:04,052 --> 00:16:05,610
It's funny what the eye
can witness.
279
00:16:05,589 --> 00:16:07,147
Attempted homicide.
280
00:16:07,124 --> 00:16:08,989
I know we're going
to prosecute,
281
00:16:08,949 --> 00:16:10,246
but do we have
to hang her out to dry?
282
00:16:10,229 --> 00:16:12,356
Why, so every loophead
can blast away
283
00:16:12,310 --> 00:16:13,937
when someone asks him
for the time?
284
00:16:13,910 --> 00:16:15,844
Yeah, I forgot, you guys
in the DA's office
285
00:16:15,799 --> 00:16:17,790
are a regular bunch
of "Carnacs."
286
00:16:17,751 --> 00:16:19,719
You ask me, the young
gentlemen were not asking
287
00:16:19,671 --> 00:16:21,138
for the time of day.
288
00:16:23,543 --> 00:16:26,011
Let us suppose, just
for the sake of argument,
289
00:16:25,944 --> 00:16:29,311
that Miss di Biasi has
had a really horrendous day,
290
00:16:29,209 --> 00:16:31,541
and someone jokingly says,
"Stick 'em up."
291
00:16:31,481 --> 00:16:35,178
She kills them.
It's not self-defense, right?
292
00:16:35,066 --> 00:16:37,694
So she's liable
for negligent homicide,
293
00:16:37,627 --> 00:16:39,026
only in this case...
294
00:16:39,002 --> 00:16:40,833
in this case
the guy didn't die.
295
00:16:42,203 --> 00:16:44,637
Okay, so we go
for attempted murder,
296
00:16:44,571 --> 00:16:46,266
if you're sure
you can make it stick.
297
00:16:46,236 --> 00:16:47,931
You'd better hope I can.
298
00:16:47,900 --> 00:16:50,164
She walks, New York
is Dodge City.
299
00:16:50,109 --> 00:16:52,475
May I make a
suggestion? By all means.
300
00:16:52,413 --> 00:16:53,903
Skip the "legal beagling"
301
00:16:53,885 --> 00:16:55,944
and go with plain
vanilla murder two.
302
00:16:55,902 --> 00:16:57,961
The coroner is determining
303
00:16:57,918 --> 00:16:59,909
the COD
on Mr. Jones
304
00:16:59,871 --> 00:17:02,669
even as we speak.
305
00:17:02,591 --> 00:17:04,957
Murder two?
306
00:17:04,895 --> 00:17:07,090
Bring her in.
307
00:17:11,104 --> 00:17:12,628
Wait a sec, huh?
308
00:17:22,051 --> 00:17:24,212
Ooh.
309
00:17:30,052 --> 00:17:31,713
Sergeant Greevey.
310
00:17:35,365 --> 00:17:37,265
Hold on.
311
00:17:38,918 --> 00:17:40,977
Relax, relax.
312
00:17:42,759 --> 00:17:45,489
Just tell me
what happened, honey.
313
00:17:52,840 --> 00:17:55,832
No- well, why
worry about it then, huh?
314
00:17:56,681 --> 00:17:59,844
Yeah, of course.
315
00:17:59,754 --> 00:18:02,848
We'll talk about it
later tonight, okay?
316
00:18:02,762 --> 00:18:06,027
I'll get home
as soon as possibly can, okay?
317
00:18:07,083 --> 00:18:09,677
Yeah, me too.
318
00:18:12,845 --> 00:18:13,869
What?
319
00:18:13,868 --> 00:18:16,564
It's nothing.
320
00:18:17,485 --> 00:18:19,953
Oh, I thought
it might've been something.
321
00:18:22,414 --> 00:18:24,314
Eileen got
roughed up at school.
322
00:18:24,270 --> 00:18:27,671
She hurt? No, you
know, just some bruises.
323
00:18:29,583 --> 00:18:31,073
Is that all?
324
00:18:32,303 --> 00:18:34,464
Yeah.
325
00:18:34,416 --> 00:18:36,611
Yeah, that's all.
326
00:18:38,801 --> 00:18:40,860
Come on, let's wrap this up.
327
00:18:41,746 --> 00:18:43,407
Who did it?
328
00:18:43,377 --> 00:18:45,242
Three guys
from her basketball team.
329
00:18:45,202 --> 00:18:48,660
She ignored them so they slammed
her up against the lockers.
330
00:18:48,563 --> 00:18:50,087
Bastards.
331
00:18:50,067 --> 00:18:52,228
I wonder if Chenault
and Jones were any good.
332
00:18:52,179 --> 00:18:53,942
At what?
333
00:18:53,908 --> 00:18:56,240
Basketball.
334
00:18:58,965 --> 00:19:01,661
Don't touch me with that thing.
335
00:19:02,774 --> 00:19:05,106
Did you
re-Miranda-ize her?
336
00:19:05,046 --> 00:19:06,536
Yeah, on the way in.
337
00:19:06,518 --> 00:19:09,078
Where's my lawyer?
Why isn't she here yet?
338
00:19:11,735 --> 00:19:14,465
The Public Defenders
have a heavy caseload.
339
00:19:14,392 --> 00:19:15,859
She told me she'd be here.
340
00:19:15,832 --> 00:19:17,299
Maybe she's stuck in traffic.
341
00:19:17,272 --> 00:19:19,365
Have a seat.
342
00:19:24,313 --> 00:19:26,645
I really...
343
00:19:26,585 --> 00:19:28,177
want a lawyer.
344
00:19:28,154 --> 00:19:29,781
I don't want to talk to you.
345
00:19:31,194 --> 00:19:33,185
You understand, Miss di Biasi,
346
00:19:33,147 --> 00:19:36,913
that you are charged
with negligent homicide?
347
00:19:36,795 --> 00:19:39,195
And when you appear
before the judge
348
00:19:39,132 --> 00:19:41,566
he'll determine
what the bail will be,
349
00:19:41,500 --> 00:19:43,832
if the court decides
that you're eligible.
350
00:19:43,773 --> 00:19:45,297
Why is this woman handcuffed?
351
00:19:45,277 --> 00:19:48,041
Sorry, there was
an accident on the FDR.
352
00:19:47,965 --> 00:19:49,523
You haven't said
anything, I trust?
353
00:19:49,502 --> 00:19:51,902
"Trust" and "lawyer," that's a
pair of words that don't match.
354
00:19:51,839 --> 00:19:53,670
How about "cop"
and "IQ over 90"?
355
00:19:53,631 --> 00:19:56,225
Shambala Green,
I'm Miss di Biasi's PD.
356
00:19:56,159 --> 00:19:57,990
So I gathered.
357
00:19:57,952 --> 00:20:01,183
And I ask again,
why is she handcuffed?
358
00:20:01,089 --> 00:20:03,114
Because she's
an accused killer.
359
00:20:03,072 --> 00:20:04,767
Look, Ms. Green,
360
00:20:04,736 --> 00:20:07,261
why don't you save your
attitude for the courtroom?
361
00:20:16,483 --> 00:20:18,451
Do you have a toothbrush?
362
00:20:18,403 --> 00:20:21,702
'Cause we have to take you
over to the women's side
363
00:20:21,604 --> 00:20:23,595
until you're arraigned.
364
00:20:35,462 --> 00:20:37,054
Here, Counselor,
365
00:20:37,031 --> 00:20:39,226
do something useful.
366
00:20:46,088 --> 00:20:49,216
What nuance? I spelled it out
for them in black and white.
367
00:20:49,129 --> 00:20:51,689
Yup, and therein lies the rub.
368
00:20:51,626 --> 00:20:53,890
What, the color angle?
369
00:20:53,834 --> 00:20:56,803
Forget it, Adam,
this isn't Selma.
370
00:20:56,715 --> 00:20:59,445
Neither was Howard Beach, and
you knowwhat happened there.
371
00:20:59,371 --> 00:21:01,862
You read "The Times" poll-
blacks favor tougher sentences
372
00:21:01,803 --> 00:21:03,202
for street crime
then whites do.
373
00:21:03,180 --> 00:21:05,205
Very good.
374
00:21:05,164 --> 00:21:08,224
We've still got to worry
about the perception of racism.
375
00:21:08,141 --> 00:21:09,836
Did she think these
guys were a threat
376
00:21:09,805 --> 00:21:11,363
because they were
street toughs...
377
00:21:11,341 --> 00:21:13,104
or because they were black?
378
00:21:13,069 --> 00:21:15,970
I can't answer that.
All I know is that self-defense
379
00:21:15,887 --> 00:21:18,515
requires that the response be in
direct proportion to the threat.
380
00:21:18,447 --> 00:21:21,041
The threat as she
reasonably perceives it.
381
00:21:20,975 --> 00:21:24,570
If she thinks she is
about to be raped
382
00:21:24,464 --> 00:21:27,194
can she kill her attacker?
383
00:21:27,120 --> 00:21:30,647
The law says yes, absolutely.
384
00:21:30,544 --> 00:21:32,444
And what if her
perception is wrong?
385
00:21:32,401 --> 00:21:35,393
If we let her go, do you realize
what we are unleashing in this city?
386
00:21:35,314 --> 00:21:37,976
There's always
the weapons charge.
387
00:21:38,898 --> 00:21:40,559
You can't be serious.
388
00:21:40,531 --> 00:21:43,227
If we don't prosecute, we're
creating a city of vigilantes.
389
00:21:43,155 --> 00:21:44,417
A man is dead.
390
00:21:44,403 --> 00:21:47,736
I don't need a summation.
Nowwhat do you want?
391
00:21:47,636 --> 00:21:50,036
Permission to file
a murder indictment?
392
00:21:49,972 --> 00:21:51,735
You want to ask
for deniability?
393
00:21:51,701 --> 00:21:54,966
I told you to file?
Since when do I dictate to you?
394
00:21:54,869 --> 00:21:56,427
You don't have a problem?
395
00:21:56,406 --> 00:21:59,398
It's not my problem to have.
396
00:22:01,559 --> 00:22:03,026
No, I'm not a policeman.
397
00:22:02,999 --> 00:22:04,591
I work for
the District Attomey's office.
398
00:22:04,567 --> 00:22:06,262
What do you want to know.
399
00:22:06,231 --> 00:22:08,426
Is Miss di Biasi an RN?
400
00:22:08,376 --> 00:22:10,970
No, a technician.
She used to be a dancer.
401
00:22:10,904 --> 00:22:12,166
She told you that?
402
00:22:12,152 --> 00:22:14,416
We're friends.
She told me about it.
403
00:22:14,361 --> 00:22:16,886
She was performing with
a modern dance company.
404
00:22:16,826 --> 00:22:18,953
I don't know if she
made a living at it.
405
00:22:18,905 --> 00:22:20,532
But you do know what happened?
406
00:22:20,506 --> 00:22:22,235
She was attacked...
407
00:22:22,202 --> 00:22:25,467
down in the subway, by
three youthful offenders.
408
00:22:25,371 --> 00:22:28,067
After she recovered,
she came to work here.
409
00:22:28,923 --> 00:22:30,754
And what was her
reaction to the attack?
410
00:22:30,716 --> 00:22:32,911
Same as anybody's.
411
00:22:32,860 --> 00:22:35,693
She was fearful, resentful
of all the little...
412
00:22:37,053 --> 00:22:38,748
"Little" what?
413
00:22:41,022 --> 00:22:43,013
"Little black bastards"?
414
00:22:45,311 --> 00:22:47,575
You see some black
teenagers on the train,
415
00:22:47,519 --> 00:22:49,111
are you automatically
afraid of them, Miss Maltese?
416
00:22:49,087 --> 00:22:51,521
Aren't you?
417
00:23:01,538 --> 00:23:04,336
Sometimes the stereotype fits.
418
00:23:05,539 --> 00:23:07,700
Long as the story's true.
419
00:23:07,651 --> 00:23:10,415
Cops have shot kids with screwdrivers
before. why not a 90-pound woman?
420
00:23:10,340 --> 00:23:13,036
How threatened could she have been?
She sat down right next to them.
421
00:23:12,964 --> 00:23:14,693
She's got a right
to sit anywhere she wants.
422
00:23:14,660 --> 00:23:17,629
So do the other passengers, but they
moved away because it seemed prudent.
423
00:23:17,540 --> 00:23:20,941
Maybe she was tired of getting
moved around by the mugging class.
424
00:23:20,837 --> 00:23:22,964
"The mugging class"?
425
00:23:22,918 --> 00:23:24,476
What's that about?
426
00:23:24,454 --> 00:23:26,786
You're an Assistant
District Attomey.
427
00:23:26,726 --> 00:23:29,388
You work for the people.
428
00:23:29,319 --> 00:23:32,186
We follow the letter
of the law here.
429
00:23:32,103 --> 00:23:34,594
Go talk to Chenault.
430
00:23:41,129 --> 00:23:43,063
My man tried...
431
00:23:43,017 --> 00:23:45,281
scared her,
432
00:23:45,225 --> 00:23:47,557
maybe with a screwdriver,
433
00:23:48,426 --> 00:23:51,361
but we was just sitting there.
434
00:23:51,275 --> 00:23:53,209
Cut the crap, Darnell,
you weren't sitting,
435
00:23:53,163 --> 00:23:55,563
you were standing up in her face
- Everybody says so.
436
00:23:55,500 --> 00:23:57,593
I'm sitting here now, ain't I?
437
00:23:57,549 --> 00:24:00,609
I'm going to be sitting
for the rest of my life.
438
00:24:00,588 --> 00:24:02,055
So maybe you should
lighten up on the 'tude.
439
00:24:02,029 --> 00:24:04,497
Nobody likes a wise-ass
in a wheelchair.
440
00:24:04,429 --> 00:24:07,193
Whose side you on, anyway?
441
00:24:09,006 --> 00:24:11,634
Nobody's.
442
00:24:11,567 --> 00:24:13,194
I just want the truth.
443
00:24:13,167 --> 00:24:15,067
And I want payback, man.
444
00:24:15,024 --> 00:24:17,822
Like I said, that's up to you.
445
00:24:19,568 --> 00:24:21,502
All right.
446
00:24:21,456 --> 00:24:24,550
All right-
we had the screwdrivers.
447
00:24:24,465 --> 00:24:27,025
We were going to rob some
lockers down at Grand Central.
448
00:24:26,962 --> 00:24:30,227
But we was never, ever,
threatening to nobody,
449
00:24:30,130 --> 00:24:32,690
especially
no white... chick.
450
00:24:32,626 --> 00:24:34,856
You were unthreatening enough so
everybody was down the end of the train?
451
00:24:34,803 --> 00:24:38,466
Except her, man. She came in
and sat down right next to us.
452
00:24:38,356 --> 00:24:40,290
Nowwhy you think that was, huh?
453
00:24:43,892 --> 00:24:47,589
Even with a court order,
it'll take three working days.
454
00:24:47,478 --> 00:24:50,538
I'm afraid I can't wait. The
wheels of justice are turning.
455
00:24:50,454 --> 00:24:52,285
Don't you guys
have your own files?
456
00:24:52,246 --> 00:24:54,043
Hey, you're the paper
of record.
457
00:24:56,023 --> 00:24:59,322
If this were a Greek
tragedy, I'd be guilty of hubris.
458
00:24:59,223 --> 00:25:02,590
Public sentiment on my side,
witnesses on my side,
459
00:25:02,489 --> 00:25:04,957
precedent on self-defense
going back to the days
460
00:25:04,889 --> 00:25:06,857
of knights bashing each
other over the head with...
461
00:25:06,809 --> 00:25:09,676
those whatchamacallit-
those spiked balls...
462
00:25:09,594 --> 00:25:11,824
Maces?
Maces.
463
00:25:11,770 --> 00:25:13,601
Thank you.
See what I mean?
464
00:25:13,562 --> 00:25:15,120
Now I am trying not to gloat,
465
00:25:15,099 --> 00:25:18,159
but what have you got
on your side, Stone?
466
00:25:18,075 --> 00:25:20,669
Not very much, I agree.
467
00:25:20,603 --> 00:25:22,764
Only the New York penal law.
468
00:25:22,716 --> 00:25:25,844
I don't think we have to
discuss the Sullivan statute...
469
00:25:25,756 --> 00:25:28,350
concealed weapons have been
illegal for the past 70 years.
470
00:25:28,285 --> 00:25:30,378
The code is also clear when
it comes to self-defense.
471
00:25:30,334 --> 00:25:32,199
I'm afraid you have
not convinced me
472
00:25:32,157 --> 00:25:33,784
that your client acted in a way
473
00:25:33,758 --> 00:25:36,750
proportional to imminent
attack. Oh, come on.
474
00:25:36,670 --> 00:25:39,230
The defendant must also act in a
way that is thwarting the attack,
475
00:25:39,167 --> 00:25:40,964
not inflicting
grave injury on the victim.
476
00:25:40,927 --> 00:25:42,895
Let's get it down
to single syllables, okay?
477
00:25:42,848 --> 00:25:44,748
The penal law also
clearly allows
478
00:25:44,704 --> 00:25:47,229
for the use of deadly force
to repel robbery,
479
00:25:47,168 --> 00:25:48,499
kidnapping, forcible sodomy
480
00:25:48,480 --> 00:25:51,540
and? or forcible rape.
481
00:25:51,458 --> 00:25:54,359
I don't see anything forcible
about it. He was only asking.
482
00:25:55,938 --> 00:25:59,999
What kind of piggish attitude
is that, Counselor?
483
00:25:59,875 --> 00:26:02,105
Are you suggesting
484
00:26:02,051 --> 00:26:05,020
that my client
was asking for it?
485
00:26:07,204 --> 00:26:10,139
Miss Green, this is not
a personal attack,
486
00:26:10,053 --> 00:26:11,680
nor an attack upon the species.
487
00:26:11,653 --> 00:26:13,814
The fact is, there may have
been some degree of threat,
488
00:26:13,765 --> 00:26:16,563
but where that becomes
attempted rape is a fine line.
489
00:26:16,486 --> 00:26:19,819
Which all too many women of
this city have been pushed across
490
00:26:19,718 --> 00:26:22,687
while they've been wondering,
"Is this really happening to me?"
491
00:26:22,599 --> 00:26:26,592
The law is our only defense against
the rapists and the shooters.
492
00:26:26,472 --> 00:26:28,770
People break it,
cops try to catch them,
493
00:26:28,712 --> 00:26:30,202
and I try to cook them.
It's my job.
494
00:26:30,184 --> 00:26:32,914
Sometimes I don't like it,
but it's all we got.
495
00:26:34,697 --> 00:26:36,562
Yeah.
496
00:26:37,546 --> 00:26:39,673
See you in court, Stone.
497
00:26:48,108 --> 00:26:52,067
Laura,
D- I-B as in boy, I-A.
498
00:26:53,549 --> 00:26:56,279
"Letter to the editor"?
That's all you got?
499
00:26:56,205 --> 00:26:57,729
That's it.
500
00:26:57,710 --> 00:26:59,143
I owe you one.
501
00:26:59,118 --> 00:27:02,212
"The police seemed
to treat this vicious attack
502
00:27:02,126 --> 00:27:04,686
as 'just one
of those things. '
503
00:27:04,623 --> 00:27:06,648
The authorities
don't want decent people
504
00:27:06,607 --> 00:27:08,700
j carrying weapons
to protect themselves.
505
00:27:08,656 --> 00:27:11,625
We agree to give up this
right on the assumption
506
00:27:11,536 --> 00:27:13,595
that the police will do
the protecting for us.
507
00:27:13,552 --> 00:27:15,383
Obviously this is
no longer the case.
508
00:27:15,345 --> 00:27:17,779
Laura di Biasi,
New York City."
509
00:27:19,474 --> 00:27:22,705
The seeds of premeditation.
Way to go. Yes?
510
00:27:22,610 --> 00:27:24,601
Sergeant Greevey
and Detective Logan are here.
511
00:27:24,562 --> 00:27:27,156
Send them in. Get a search
warrant for her apartment.
512
00:27:27,091 --> 00:27:29,525
There may be other letters.
Some people keep copies.
513
00:27:31,188 --> 00:27:32,849
Want to run through it?
514
00:27:32,820 --> 00:27:34,845
Sure.
515
00:27:37,365 --> 00:27:41,495
Now Detective Greevey, describe
for the court, if you will,
516
00:27:41,366 --> 00:27:43,960
the accused's state of mind
when you questioned her.
517
00:27:43,895 --> 00:27:45,021
She was upset.
518
00:27:51,895 --> 00:27:53,863
She said she intended
519
00:27:53,816 --> 00:27:56,580
to "blow their heads off,"
if necessary.
520
00:27:57,817 --> 00:27:59,808
Was that a question?
521
00:28:02,265 --> 00:28:04,563
Are we in the same room, Max?
522
00:28:06,235 --> 00:28:08,430
Look, we both know
what went down.
523
00:28:08,379 --> 00:28:09,937
She was scared
half out of her wits
524
00:28:09,915 --> 00:28:12,042
by those... two perps.
525
00:28:11,996 --> 00:28:15,159
Victims, Max. Victims.
What's going on?
526
00:28:15,068 --> 00:28:16,535
Meaning what?
527
00:28:16,508 --> 00:28:18,976
Meaning you were gung-ho about
this before. what's happened?
528
00:28:25,278 --> 00:28:28,008
Michael Jones, the dead victim,
529
00:28:27,934 --> 00:28:30,630
the one the computer
boys said was so clean
530
00:28:30,559 --> 00:28:32,390
you could eat off of him? Yeah?
531
00:28:32,351 --> 00:28:36,219
The coroner sent out
his fingerprints on a hunch,
532
00:28:36,096 --> 00:28:38,223
just to see, you know,
for the hell of it.
533
00:28:38,176 --> 00:28:41,907
Turns out his real name's
Michael Mosket!
534
00:28:41,793 --> 00:28:43,988
Whoa-
"Mosquito Mosket"?
535
00:28:43,937 --> 00:28:45,564
Yeah, ring a bell?
536
00:28:45,538 --> 00:28:48,234
Attempted murder,
negligent homicide?
537
00:28:48,162 --> 00:28:51,029
Two years at Spofford
when he was 14 for manslaughter?
538
00:28:50,947 --> 00:28:52,881
Real winner, this kid.
539
00:28:52,835 --> 00:28:55,804
This is really going
to win us points with the jury.
540
00:28:55,715 --> 00:28:57,239
They take one look at him,
541
00:28:57,220 --> 00:28:59,950
they figure the little bastard
got just what he deserved.
542
00:28:59,876 --> 00:29:02,709
That's how you figure it,
Max? I remember Mosket.
543
00:29:02,629 --> 00:29:05,598
That was all gang-related.
There was no sex involved!
544
00:29:05,510 --> 00:29:06,943
Now as far as I read it,
545
00:29:06,918 --> 00:29:09,478
that girl was revenging
the earlier attack,
546
00:29:09,414 --> 00:29:11,609
and self-defense
does not allow for revenge!
547
00:29:11,559 --> 00:29:14,153
The law allowed Michael Mosket
to walk free.
548
00:29:14,087 --> 00:29:16,920
Until real justice was served
down in the subway?
549
00:29:16,839 --> 00:29:20,275
Do you have any other
personal views on this subject
550
00:29:20,168 --> 00:29:22,068
you'd like to air before
we walk into court
551
00:29:22,025 --> 00:29:24,789
and Ms. Shambala Green hands us
our asses on a platter?!
552
00:29:26,409 --> 00:29:28,604
Nope, not a one.
553
00:29:29,482 --> 00:29:31,279
I don't believe this.
554
00:29:31,242 --> 00:29:34,006
The entire New York City Police
Department's lost its mind.
555
00:29:33,930 --> 00:29:35,591
Do you have anything to say?
556
00:29:35,563 --> 00:29:38,191
I go along
with what my partner says.
557
00:29:38,123 --> 00:29:39,590
Which is...?
558
00:29:46,509 --> 00:29:49,307
The accused stated
559
00:29:49,229 --> 00:29:51,754
that she intended
to harm the victims.
560
00:29:51,694 --> 00:29:54,094
Absolutely.
561
00:30:02,992 --> 00:30:05,483
The defense will
prove that not only fear,
562
00:30:05,424 --> 00:30:08,052
but anger stemming
from a previous incident,
563
00:30:07,985 --> 00:30:11,079
led Miss di Biasi to an act
not of self-defense,
564
00:30:10,994 --> 00:30:12,461
but of vengeance.
565
00:30:12,433 --> 00:30:13,764
Armed with a deadly weapon,
566
00:30:13,746 --> 00:30:16,909
she waited
for the very next pretext...
567
00:30:16,819 --> 00:30:20,311
in essence, she went looking for
Damell Chenault and Michael Jones,
568
00:30:20,211 --> 00:30:22,873
whose only offense
against the accused
569
00:30:22,804 --> 00:30:24,704
was that they appeared
to be threatening.
570
00:30:24,660 --> 00:30:27,356
If Miss di Biasi is
so threatened by urban life,
571
00:30:27,284 --> 00:30:29,115
perhaps she could've
avoided the subway.
572
00:30:29,077 --> 00:30:31,170
Objection!
Objection, Your Honor.
573
00:30:31,125 --> 00:30:32,649
I trust there will be
nothing further
574
00:30:32,630 --> 00:30:33,995
along that line, Counselor?
575
00:30:35,094 --> 00:30:36,721
Of course I'm more than willing
576
00:30:36,694 --> 00:30:38,457
to make a statement.
577
00:30:38,423 --> 00:30:40,448
The behavior of the prosecution
578
00:30:40,407 --> 00:30:42,341
is totally inappropriate.
579
00:30:42,295 --> 00:30:44,957
I find it incredible that
a civil servant of this city
580
00:30:44,888 --> 00:30:47,755
could suggest that a woman
doesn't have the right
581
00:30:47,672 --> 00:30:49,537
to ride the subway
without fear.
582
00:30:49,497 --> 00:30:52,466
Mr. Stone, did you really
mean to say that Laura di Biasi
583
00:30:52,377 --> 00:30:54,402
has no right to live
in New York City?
584
00:30:54,362 --> 00:30:56,660
You're being a bit literal,
aren't you?
585
00:30:56,602 --> 00:30:59,435
I don't think so. I think your
implication was pretty clear.
586
00:30:59,355 --> 00:31:02,085
If a woman is afraid of rape,
she has no right to live here.
587
00:31:02,011 --> 00:31:05,003
That's a curious position
to take for a prosecutor.
588
00:31:26,048 --> 00:31:28,812
Ballet books, poetry...
589
00:31:28,735 --> 00:31:31,670
couple of how-to books
on achieving orgasm.
590
00:31:32,928 --> 00:31:34,896
Oh, great.
591
00:31:34,849 --> 00:31:36,441
Now what?
592
00:31:37,858 --> 00:31:40,326
Did you find anything
incriminating?
593
00:31:40,258 --> 00:31:41,555
"Small Arms Manual,"
594
00:31:41,538 --> 00:31:42,903
"Shoot to Kill,"
"Hand-to-hand Combat."
595
00:31:42,883 --> 00:31:44,407
So? Unusual bedtime stories.
596
00:31:44,387 --> 00:31:46,855
That's my business.
597
00:31:46,787 --> 00:31:48,345
I assume you have a warrant?
598
00:31:49,316 --> 00:31:51,978
Save it.
599
00:31:51,908 --> 00:31:54,399
Excuse me, I'm sorry
to bother you, I really am.
600
00:31:54,341 --> 00:31:55,638
I know you're going
through a tough...
601
00:31:55,620 --> 00:31:57,747
Yeah, right...
602
00:31:57,701 --> 00:31:59,828
you know.
603
00:31:59,782 --> 00:32:03,013
I haven't slept a full hour
since this whole thing started.
604
00:32:02,918 --> 00:32:05,478
Look, I should be going,
and I'm sorry,
605
00:32:05,415 --> 00:32:07,440
but I have to take these.
606
00:32:07,399 --> 00:32:08,832
It's not enough you hang me,
607
00:32:08,808 --> 00:32:10,901
I have to buy you
the rope, too, huh?
608
00:32:14,953 --> 00:32:16,580
What have you got against me?
609
00:32:16,553 --> 00:32:18,020
I'm sorry?
610
00:32:17,993 --> 00:32:21,394
I don't understand
why you hate me.
611
00:32:21,290 --> 00:32:22,723
Look, I'm not free to dis...
612
00:32:24,202 --> 00:32:25,999
I don't.
Of course I don't.
613
00:32:25,962 --> 00:32:27,452
Then why are you...
614
00:32:27,435 --> 00:32:29,198
we really shouldn't be
having this conversation.
615
00:32:29,163 --> 00:32:31,222
I wouldn't shoot you!
616
00:32:31,180 --> 00:32:33,171
Don't you understand?
617
00:32:35,693 --> 00:32:37,923
It all became unreal.
618
00:32:37,868 --> 00:32:40,132
It wasn't happening to me.
619
00:32:40,077 --> 00:32:43,103
All I could feel was fear.
I was afraid of them.
620
00:32:43,021 --> 00:32:44,613
I was terrified!
621
00:32:44,590 --> 00:32:47,320
Not because they were black,
622
00:32:47,247 --> 00:32:49,772
but because of who they were.
623
00:32:49,711 --> 00:32:51,736
I didn't mean to kill him.
624
00:32:51,695 --> 00:32:54,129
I couldn't make it stop.
625
00:32:54,064 --> 00:32:56,396
They wouldn't-
it wouldn't...
626
00:32:56,336 --> 00:32:58,429
Please, that's enough.
627
00:32:58,384 --> 00:32:59,908
What if you were on a train,
628
00:32:59,889 --> 00:33:03,450
and a bunch of rednecks
started hassling you?
629
00:33:05,394 --> 00:33:07,988
Wouldn't you be afraid?
630
00:33:09,843 --> 00:33:11,606
Wouldn't you?!
631
00:33:11,571 --> 00:33:16,031
Miss di Biasi, please.
I'm sorry,
632
00:33:15,892 --> 00:33:17,154
I can't comment.
633
00:33:20,053 --> 00:33:22,214
I can't stay.
634
00:33:25,237 --> 00:33:29,196
I came by to give you my
unconditional support. Only...
635
00:33:29,078 --> 00:33:31,103
"Number one,
tone it down a little;
636
00:33:31,063 --> 00:33:32,928
Number two, try
a little damage control"?
637
00:33:32,887 --> 00:33:34,718
PR's not my job.
638
00:33:34,679 --> 00:33:36,044
You seen the papers?
639
00:33:36,024 --> 00:33:37,855
She was looking
for it."
640
00:33:37,816 --> 00:33:39,477
They're having
a field day out there.
641
00:33:39,448 --> 00:33:41,416
I can't help that.
Our whole strategy
642
00:33:41,369 --> 00:33:43,132
is sandbagging
the self-defense scenario.
643
00:33:43,097 --> 00:33:46,328
Even if she comes off a revenge
seeker with a hair trigger?
644
00:33:46,234 --> 00:33:48,930
She pulled off five shots
in three seconds.
645
00:33:48,858 --> 00:33:51,019
Excellent,
but it would be nice,
646
00:33:50,970 --> 00:33:54,497
real nice, if we could have
a concrete piece of evidence
647
00:33:54,395 --> 00:33:56,556
to support your revenge theory.
648
00:33:56,507 --> 00:33:58,099
DA Schiff.
649
00:33:58,075 --> 00:33:59,474
Paul.
650
00:34:01,212 --> 00:34:02,577
"Shoot to Kill"?
651
00:34:02,557 --> 00:34:04,525
Damage control.
652
00:34:05,821 --> 00:34:07,311
I found all this
in her bedroom.
653
00:34:09,245 --> 00:34:12,180
Check the dates. The first
one was six months ago.
654
00:34:14,879 --> 00:34:16,744
She's improving.
655
00:34:24,704 --> 00:34:26,501
Wow.
656
00:34:26,913 --> 00:34:29,905
What were the extent
of those injuries?
657
00:34:29,825 --> 00:34:31,224
They were fairly extensive.
658
00:34:31,202 --> 00:34:33,295
Could you describe them for me?
659
00:34:33,250 --> 00:34:36,242
They were tall, muscular,
660
00:34:36,163 --> 00:34:38,324
one had an Afro
with a goatee...
661
00:34:38,275 --> 00:34:40,869
No, no, Miss di
Biasi, I'll rephrase.
662
00:34:40,804 --> 00:34:42,704
Could you please explain
663
00:34:42,660 --> 00:34:44,560
and describe for the court
664
00:34:44,516 --> 00:34:46,040
the injuries?
665
00:34:46,021 --> 00:34:48,012
Oh.
666
00:34:48,933 --> 00:34:51,060
I had a shattered disc
in my back,
667
00:34:51,014 --> 00:34:52,948
some broken ribs,
668
00:34:52,901 --> 00:34:55,096
torn cartilage
in the right knee.
669
00:34:55,046 --> 00:34:58,106
And these injuries required
several operations, didn't they?
670
00:34:58,023 --> 00:34:59,820
Yes, several.
671
00:34:59,783 --> 00:35:02,718
Three? Five?
672
00:35:02,632 --> 00:35:05,157
Four, I think.
Five.
673
00:35:06,793 --> 00:35:08,260
I don't know.
674
00:35:08,233 --> 00:35:09,666
They hurt me,
isn't that enough?
675
00:35:09,641 --> 00:35:11,734
Yes, of course.
676
00:35:11,690 --> 00:35:13,920
And no one blames you
for being resentful.
677
00:35:15,562 --> 00:35:18,429
These injuries finished you
as a dancer, didn't they?
678
00:35:21,643 --> 00:35:23,474
Yes.
679
00:35:23,435 --> 00:35:25,403
That seem fair to you?
680
00:35:25,356 --> 00:35:27,153
I object, Your Honor.
What's the relevancy?
681
00:35:27,116 --> 00:35:28,845
I'll allow it.
682
00:35:31,661 --> 00:35:33,219
No.
683
00:35:33,197 --> 00:35:35,165
No, it wasn't fair.
684
00:35:35,118 --> 00:35:36,710
I think it's grossly unfair.
685
00:35:36,686 --> 00:35:39,018
I'm sure if I were
in your position,
686
00:35:38,958 --> 00:35:40,357
I'd carry a 9mm, too.
687
00:35:40,335 --> 00:35:42,030
Objection!
Withdrawn.
688
00:35:41,999 --> 00:35:44,331
Miss di Biasi...
689
00:35:45,263 --> 00:35:48,255
in your dreams,
in your fantasies,
690
00:35:48,176 --> 00:35:50,974
did you ever wish
691
00:35:50,897 --> 00:35:53,229
you'd gotten back
at those youths?
692
00:35:53,169 --> 00:35:55,194
Objection. Objection.
693
00:35:55,154 --> 00:35:56,678
Your Honor,
this is unbelievable.
694
00:35:56,658 --> 00:35:59,821
She was defending herself
against a man who's been accused
695
00:35:59,730 --> 00:36:01,425
of multiple homicides.
696
00:36:01,394 --> 00:36:04,693
Mr. Mosket's priors have
no bearing on this case, Judge.
697
00:36:04,595 --> 00:36:06,460
Nor, of course, could
she have known about them.
698
00:36:06,420 --> 00:36:08,320
Overruled.
699
00:36:08,276 --> 00:36:10,710
Besides, he wasn't
the only threat, was he?
700
00:36:13,397 --> 00:36:16,764
Who else did you find
threatening, Miss di Biasi?
701
00:36:17,590 --> 00:36:19,285
Mr. Chenault?
702
00:36:24,822 --> 00:36:27,655
What exactly did he say?
703
00:36:31,096 --> 00:36:33,462
He said...
704
00:36:34,649 --> 00:36:37,311
"How about a taste...
705
00:36:37,241 --> 00:36:39,232
for my friend?"
706
00:36:39,193 --> 00:36:41,058
which you took
707
00:36:41,018 --> 00:36:43,316
as an overture to rape?
708
00:36:43,259 --> 00:36:46,456
He was crowding me,
he was right up against me.
709
00:36:46,363 --> 00:36:47,660
Who, Mr. Chenault?
710
00:36:47,643 --> 00:36:49,235
Mr. Mosket?
Both of them?
711
00:36:49,212 --> 00:36:51,703
Yes! No.
712
00:36:52,572 --> 00:36:54,472
I don't know.
At least one.
713
00:36:54,429 --> 00:36:56,897
And you tried to get
away? Yes, of course.
714
00:36:56,829 --> 00:36:58,194
The second time, too?
715
00:36:58,174 --> 00:36:59,505
Yes.
716
00:36:59,486 --> 00:37:01,477
That's why you shot him
the second time, to get away?
717
00:37:01,438 --> 00:37:02,769
Objection, Your Honor.
718
00:37:02,750 --> 00:37:05,082
Why did you shoot
Darnell Chenault
719
00:37:05,022 --> 00:37:06,580
a second time, Miss di Biasi?
720
00:37:06,559 --> 00:37:08,720
I was petrified.
I wanted to make sure.
721
00:37:08,671 --> 00:37:11,572
So you said,
"Here's your taste."
722
00:37:32,547 --> 00:37:35,414
You said,
"Here's your taste."
723
00:37:35,332 --> 00:37:37,163
Sounds rather cool.
724
00:37:37,125 --> 00:37:39,491
Objection, Your
Honor. No further questions.
725
00:37:45,638 --> 00:37:47,629
Miss di Biasi, you say
726
00:37:47,591 --> 00:37:50,151
you "didn't have time
to think."
727
00:37:51,751 --> 00:37:54,242
Nor should anyone
be required to think
728
00:37:54,183 --> 00:37:56,481
when faced with grave
bodily harm.
729
00:37:56,424 --> 00:37:58,392
The human response
is not to think,
730
00:37:58,344 --> 00:38:00,278
but to react.
731
00:38:00,233 --> 00:38:02,224
Miss Green, get on with it.
732
00:38:04,489 --> 00:38:06,821
"Detached reflection
733
00:38:06,762 --> 00:38:09,253
cannot be demanded
in the presence
734
00:38:09,194 --> 00:38:11,128
of an uplifted knife."
735
00:38:11,083 --> 00:38:13,551
Or screwdriver.
736
00:38:13,483 --> 00:38:15,474
Objection, Your Honor,
this has no bearing
737
00:38:15,436 --> 00:38:16,926
on why Miss di Biasi
was waiting...
738
00:38:16,908 --> 00:38:18,637
This has all the bearing
in the world.
739
00:38:18,604 --> 00:38:20,902
A lot more than
the Jesuitical casuistry
740
00:38:20,845 --> 00:38:23,405
offered up by
the District Attorney.
741
00:38:23,341 --> 00:38:25,832
May we approach
the bench, Your Honor?
742
00:38:25,773 --> 00:38:28,264
If you can be brief.
743
00:38:32,655 --> 00:38:34,213
Your Honor,
744
00:38:34,191 --> 00:38:35,988
the speed of the events,
745
00:38:35,952 --> 00:38:37,613
the timeframe
of my client's reaction,
746
00:38:37,583 --> 00:38:39,107
is crucial to my defense.
747
00:38:39,088 --> 00:38:41,454
I'd like permission to stage
748
00:38:41,392 --> 00:38:42,791
a demonstration
of the incident,
749
00:38:42,769 --> 00:38:44,498
if it please the court?
750
00:38:44,465 --> 00:38:46,330
Isn't this enough
of a circus, Your Honor?
751
00:38:46,289 --> 00:38:48,280
I'll decide that.
752
00:38:49,298 --> 00:38:51,391
All right, but I warn you,
Miss Green,
753
00:38:51,346 --> 00:38:53,712
I don't want to see
any undue theatrics.
754
00:38:53,650 --> 00:38:55,117
Thank you, Your Honor.
755
00:38:55,091 --> 00:38:56,786
Ladies and gentlemen,
756
00:38:56,755 --> 00:38:58,950
the court has agreed
to allow the defense
757
00:38:58,900 --> 00:39:02,631
to stage a re-enactment
of the occurrence in question.
758
00:39:11,158 --> 00:39:12,921
Crime Stoppers!
Your Honor, these people
759
00:39:12,886 --> 00:39:15,150
are on record as supporting
the vigilante tactics...
760
00:39:15,094 --> 00:39:17,153
If that's an objection,
you're overruled.
761
00:39:18,039 --> 00:39:19,904
Proceed, Miss Green.
762
00:39:41,627 --> 00:39:45,927
How about a taste, baby?
763
00:39:45,788 --> 00:39:48,882
Man, what the homeboys doing,
narcing for the white folks?!
764
00:39:48,797 --> 00:39:50,662
Order! Order!
765
00:39:50,621 --> 00:39:52,179
Huh?! Little punks!
766
00:39:52,158 --> 00:39:53,750
Get off of me!
Get off of me!
767
00:39:53,726 --> 00:39:55,489
Come on, you bunch of freaks!
768
00:39:57,886 --> 00:40:01,083
Order! Order!
769
00:40:00,991 --> 00:40:02,982
If the Crime Stoppers
didn't do it,
770
00:40:02,943 --> 00:40:05,571
Darnell sure as hell did.
So how much worse can it get?
771
00:40:05,504 --> 00:40:08,029
Not much. I want you up
there for the rest of the day.
772
00:40:07,968 --> 00:40:09,868
What, an antidote
to brother Darnell?
773
00:40:09,825 --> 00:40:11,486
The name on everyone's lips.
774
00:40:11,457 --> 00:40:14,255
I got a woman down the hall who
can't stop talking about him.
775
00:40:16,706 --> 00:40:19,607
I'll- I'll sign
a complaint,
776
00:40:19,522 --> 00:40:21,513
point the finger, you name it.
777
00:40:21,475 --> 00:40:24,205
You recognized Mr. Chenault how,
from seeing him on the news?
778
00:40:24,131 --> 00:40:25,689
Uh-huh,
that's right.
779
00:40:25,668 --> 00:40:28,603
And the other one,
the one that died...
780
00:40:28,516 --> 00:40:29,847
Mosquito Mosket?
781
00:40:29,828 --> 00:40:31,557
Mm-hmm.
782
00:40:31,525 --> 00:40:34,756
Yeah.
Too bad.
783
00:40:34,662 --> 00:40:36,596
I mean, he's...
784
00:40:36,549 --> 00:40:39,677
he's the one
that tried to rape me.
785
00:40:39,590 --> 00:40:42,115
That I'm sure of.
And I'm pretty sure
786
00:40:42,054 --> 00:40:44,522
that the guy in the wheelchair,
he held me down.
787
00:40:44,455 --> 00:40:46,446
How sure is "pretty sure,"
Miss Diamond?
788
00:40:46,407 --> 00:40:49,467
Like I said, I'm positive
789
00:40:49,384 --> 00:40:51,181
of the one that died.
790
00:41:02,314 --> 00:41:06,250
Adam, I need to twist Darnell.
I need your permission.
791
00:41:06,123 --> 00:41:07,818
Yeah, what are you
talking about?
792
00:41:07,787 --> 00:41:09,721
There's a woman right now
with Stevenson
793
00:41:09,676 --> 00:41:11,303
swearing out a complaint
about Chenault.
794
00:41:11,276 --> 00:41:12,937
What's that got to do
with anything?
795
00:41:12,909 --> 00:41:14,308
Maybe nothing,
maybe everything.
796
00:41:14,285 --> 00:41:15,877
But if those two are
rape-happy, I want to know that
797
00:41:15,853 --> 00:41:18,720
before I go tearing
into Laura di Biasi again.
798
00:41:18,637 --> 00:41:22,095
Can't anyone around here stay on the
same side of the street for 10 seconds?
799
00:41:21,998 --> 00:41:23,556
Well?
800
00:41:23,535 --> 00:41:25,901
If we change our tune now,
801
00:41:25,839 --> 00:41:27,864
we're facing
a public relations disaster.
802
00:41:27,823 --> 00:41:29,791
I know that. You don't
have to tell me that.
803
00:41:29,744 --> 00:41:31,974
But if I don't listen
to my reasonable doubt...
804
00:41:31,920 --> 00:41:33,512
I thought Mosket
was a gang member...
805
00:41:33,489 --> 00:41:36,925
violent, but no history of sexual
crimes. with what I know now,
806
00:41:36,817 --> 00:41:38,682
the defendant's perceptions
may be accurate.
807
00:41:38,642 --> 00:41:41,440
I can't prosecute on that level.
All right, but we've got to consider...
808
00:41:41,362 --> 00:41:42,989
I won't do it.
809
00:41:42,962 --> 00:41:44,862
What the hell, go for it.
810
00:41:44,818 --> 00:41:47,981
I'll ask Leon
for a continuance.
811
00:41:47,891 --> 00:41:51,418
Damn, cuz, slow down!
What do you want, man?
812
00:41:51,316 --> 00:41:53,375
The truth.
813
00:41:53,332 --> 00:41:56,130
Look, I was sitting down, man,
814
00:41:56,052 --> 00:41:58,020
just like I'm sitting down now.
815
00:41:57,973 --> 00:42:00,032
I didn't even move a muscle.
816
00:41:59,989 --> 00:42:04,016
Damn, man, Mosquito's the one
into biting on white chicks.
817
00:42:08,503 --> 00:42:11,336
This is rather
unbelievable, Mr. Stone.
818
00:42:11,255 --> 00:42:14,247
The defense has an obligation
to defend its client vigorously
819
00:42:14,168 --> 00:42:16,068
even if it has knowledge
of the client's guilt.
820
00:42:16,024 --> 00:42:18,652
The prosecutor's job
is much more restrictive.
821
00:42:18,584 --> 00:42:22,315
I have to drop the charges if I
believe the accused is innocent,
822
00:42:22,202 --> 00:42:25,535
and with the new information
on Mosket, I have no choice.
823
00:42:25,434 --> 00:42:27,493
There is reasonable
doubt on murder two.
824
00:42:27,450 --> 00:42:29,111
So what are you looking for?
825
00:42:29,083 --> 00:42:31,415
That she plead
on the gun charge
826
00:42:31,355 --> 00:42:33,289
and the reckless
endangerment...
827
00:42:33,243 --> 00:42:37,612
Chenault was shot sitting down
according to an eyewitness.
828
00:42:37,469 --> 00:42:39,027
Miss Green?
829
00:42:39,004 --> 00:42:41,029
Forget it, Judge.
830
00:42:40,989 --> 00:42:43,753
Mr. Stone is hardly
in a position to negotiate.
831
00:42:43,678 --> 00:42:45,669
Why don't we just
go back in there,
832
00:42:45,630 --> 00:42:47,791
tell the jury the truth
about Mosket,
833
00:42:47,742 --> 00:42:49,767
and let them decide
how to deal with my client?
834
00:42:52,159 --> 00:42:54,491
You are a Public Defender.
835
00:42:54,431 --> 00:42:57,662
Try defending the public.
If this goes to a jury,
836
00:42:57,568 --> 00:42:59,729
they won't convict
on the gun charge.
837
00:42:59,680 --> 00:43:01,580
She is innocent.
838
00:43:01,536 --> 00:43:04,596
Miss Laura di Biasi
is not innocent
839
00:43:04,513 --> 00:43:06,947
of carrying and discharging
a lethal weapon
840
00:43:06,882 --> 00:43:09,248
in a closed
and crowded subway car.
841
00:43:09,186 --> 00:43:12,519
And if we acquit her on
this, we will be inviting
842
00:43:12,419 --> 00:43:15,786
nine million people
to arm themselves.
843
00:43:15,683 --> 00:43:17,617
This is not a question
of win or lose,
844
00:43:17,572 --> 00:43:19,164
it's a question of justice.
845
00:43:22,789 --> 00:43:25,019
We're both paid by the people.
846
00:43:24,965 --> 00:43:27,263
We're both part of the system.
847
00:43:27,205 --> 00:43:30,140
Let's let it work
the way it's supposed to.
848
00:43:33,286 --> 00:43:36,619
Are you flexible on sentencing
849
00:43:36,519 --> 00:43:38,248
for the Sullivan violation?
850
00:43:38,216 --> 00:43:39,843
One year suspended,
851
00:43:39,816 --> 00:43:41,477
three years probation,
852
00:43:41,448 --> 00:43:44,645
2000 hours of community
service on the Sullivan.
853
00:43:44,552 --> 00:43:48,010
Five years suspended
on the reckless endangerment.
854
00:43:47,914 --> 00:43:51,042
Plus she must submit
to a psyche profile test,
855
00:43:50,953 --> 00:43:53,649
and whatever care mandated by
the hospital during probation.
856
00:43:54,506 --> 00:43:56,497
Deal?
857
00:44:01,228 --> 00:44:04,129
Naturally,
my client is gratified
858
00:44:04,044 --> 00:44:05,375
that justice has been served.
859
00:44:05,356 --> 00:44:08,814
We look upon this as not
only a personal vindication,
860
00:44:08,717 --> 00:44:11,845
but also a victory
for every woman and man
861
00:44:11,758 --> 00:44:14,556
that rides the subways or
walks the streets of New York.
862
00:44:14,478 --> 00:44:16,946
And I want to thank
the district attorneys
863
00:44:16,878 --> 00:44:19,346
for having the courage
of their convictions.
864
00:44:19,279 --> 00:44:21,406
It's not a perfect world,
865
00:44:21,360 --> 00:44:23,157
but at least we can
walk away from this one
866
00:44:23,120 --> 00:44:24,382
feeling we did the right thing.
867
00:44:24,368 --> 00:44:26,427
Really? It feels to
me like all we did
868
00:44:26,384 --> 00:44:28,875
was make the wrong
seem like a right.63656
