In the criminal justice system

sexually-based offenses
are considered especially heinous.

In New York City,

the dedicated detectives who investigate
these vicious felonies are members

of an elite squad known
as The Special Victims Unit.

These are their stories.

Brad?

Brad, did you hear that?

It sounded
like someone screaming.

Pen, just go
back to sleep.

It's probably some party girl
drunk off her ass.

Do you hear
a girl's voice?

I always hear
girls' voices with this stuff.

No,

this is real.

I'm callin' the cops.

Are you high?

Oh.

yeah.

Why can't you mind
your own beeswax?

Help!
Someone help me!

Girl's in trouble
out there.

Help!

I didn't hear anything.

Because you're deaf!

Where do you think
you're goin'?

To check
on that poor girl.

And if there's a homicidal maniac,
what are you gonna do,

run him over with your rascal?

Stay here.

She's just a kid.

Her I.D.
Says she's 23.

Vanessa Eastman.

Found
her smashed cell phone.

I'll see if we can
get anything off it.

Defensive wounds.
She fought back.

Didn't stop him
from raping her...

Through the back door.

Anal tearing,
fluids on her thigh.

This rock
your murder weapon?

If it wasn't,

bruising on her neck
indicates he strangled her, too.

I'll know more
after the autopsy.

Neighbor said he heard her
cry for help hours ago.

Tell me she died
quickly.

No such luck.

Liver temp indicates
she bled out slowly.

T.O.D.'s only
about an hour ago.

So how many people up there
heard her screams and did nothing?

You notified
Vanessa Eastman's parents?

We couldn't.
I.D. Was fake.

Anything on her prints?

Nothin'. My guess is she's
an underage kid out clubbin'.

Well, I.D.'s not the only wall
we're hitting.

Munch just called
from his canvass.

Nobody saw anything.

Plenty of people heard her
screaming for her life,

but nobody bothered to check.

Yeah, it's
the bystander effect.

Just like the 15-year-old girl
in California

who was gang raped
at her homecoming

while 20 people stood by.

- Hey, hey.
- You got somethin'?

Description fittin'
your Jane Doe

came up on the missing persons
database about ten minutes ago.

Anna Mcwilliams, 17.

That's my little girl.

We're so sorry
for your loss.

Mr. Mcwilliams, we need
to ask you a few questions.

Okay.

Do you know who Anna
was with last night?

No.

I was on a business trip
and got home this morning.

I saw her bed
wasn't slept in, so, uh...

called her friends.
No one had seen her.

Had she stayed out
all night before?

She'd break her curfew, but

she always came home.

Her mom died of cancer
seven months ago.

They were like sisters.

Anna took it real hard,
started acting out.

How?

She dumped the boy she'd been dating
since the seventh grade, started...

seeing a new guy
every week.

We're gonna need
all those names.

I don't know them.

She wouldn't talk to me
about boys.

How about
the old boyfriend?

Henry Christensen.

They stayed friends.
Trust me,

he wouldn't hurt a fly.

Branford Preparatory School
Monday, November 16

- What are you doin', Frank?
- Is that our boy?

That's him.

- Get the hell away!
- What's your problem, Henry?

Looks like our boy Henry
has a temper.

And tell your buddy halliday
he can shove this up his ass!

-Calm down, calm down.
-Guys, what's the problem?

That douche bag...

put a picture of him and Anna
on her memorial.

Looks like she had
a lot of friends.

Yeah, well, she was
my girlfriend.

For six years.

-When's the last time you saw Anna?
-Thanks.

Yesterday.

Fifth period calculus.

I think your math's
a little off.

Come on.
Let's go talk.

Must have slipped your mind.

You spent last night
with Anna.

No, I didn't.

Well, you know, her cell phone
was pretty smashed up,

but we were able to download
your texts.

"today's my b-day.
How about birthday sex?

It's the best day
of the year".

- It's just a song.
- Hmm?

We were getting
back together.

Really?
Then why'd she text back,

"have plans"?

Pretty harsh.

No "I'm sorry,"
no "happy birthday"?

I got my present.

She went out with me
that night.

So then why'd
you lie about it?

Well, maybe
he was embarrassed

about hiring
instant entourage?

Paparazzi for pay

that follow nobodies around
and make 'em look like big shots.

You bribed her
to go out with you?

Anna never turned down
a date to the hottest club

If she could blog about it
on nypartygirl.

She couldn't post the pictures
fast enough.

"hey, cowboys, watch me take a ride
To the meatpacking district".

Anna seems to be attracting
an awful lot of attention here.

That must have
made you mad.

It was a photo op.

-We didn't stay.
-No.

You went into the park,

you made your move,

she rejected you again,

And you snapped.

We never went
to the park.

After the last club,
we got back in the limo,

she started texting someone.

Next thing I know, she tells
the driver to drop her off at 23rd.

I went home.

So you spent all your money on her
with no happy ending?

She couldn't wait to leave.

She practically
jumped out of the car.

You think she was hooking up
with one of your high school buddies?

No.

Before she got out,

I grabbed her phone,
and I saw a message pop up

from a guy on a.Q.

What's a.Q.?

"anonymousquickie.Com.

Log on, hook up, get off".

It's a cell phone app.

I thought you already pulled
everything off Anna's phone?

This isn't stored
in a phone like text.

It's a location-based
social networking site.

A.Q. Uses the phones' g.P.S.
or wi-fi network as a geo locator.

The user can track people nearby
looking for anonymous sex.

Let me show you
how it works.

This guy, hot4u, he's
less than a block from us now.

I'll play our victim,

And I'll use anna's
screen name, sweet17,

and see if we can hook up.

I'll text him.

"hot pic--
meet for coffee in five?"

Casual sex
at the speed of light.

Makes craigslist
look prehistoric.

He took the bait.

- "u r hot 2--
I can be there in 3."

Can you see who anna
chatted with last night?

This is her chat log.

At 3:09 a.M., she contacted
a guy named bigpeter.

"going home,
up for a drive-by?"

"locked and loaded
mad/25th in 10.

I'll come in the back door."

So Anna and Peter text,

they seal the deal,
and they hook up in the park.

Victim on demand.

It's a rapist's
dream come true.

Can you find
bigpeter now?

He's in Brooklyn heights.

Let's see if he's up
for another anonymous quickie.

You my goodtimegirl?

I am
if you're bigpeter.

Bigpeter's always
up for a good time.

So what'd
you have in mind?

Whatever you want.

How about a threesome?

You got a hot girlfriend
stashed somewhere?

I got a hot boyfriend.

Not really my scene,

but I'll try
anything once.

Whoa, whoa,
I'm not into s&m, pal.

Idiot, you're unr arrest for the rape
and murder of Anna Mcwilliams.

Who?

You know her
as sweet17.

I didn't kill that girl.

We hooked up,
and I split.

After you split her head
open with this?

It's amazing what they can
get fingerprints off nowadays.

The only thing I grabbed
in that park

felt like
those beauties.

So do you get
all your victims off a.Q.?

Perfect setup for you.

One-stop rape shop?

Rape?

No.

I've slept with thousands
of women,

and every one of them
says, "yes, please."

Thousands?
You've been a busy boy.

A.Q.'s only been up
for six months?

I'm talkin'
lifetime r.B.I.

Only tapped
around 100 on a.Q.

Only?

So you're a sex addict.

I'm a red-blooded guy,
living the american dream.

You're every woman's
worst nightmare.

But that's why anonymous
quickie's so perfect for you.

Anyone who gets to know you
hates you.

I'm on a.Q.

because
I don't have time for dating.

I'm a stockbroker.

You really do enjoy
screwing people.

Nobody's complaining
about my services.

So then you won't mind
if we conduct

a customer
satisfaction survey?

We'll need your phone.

You know, you should
try a.Q. for real, detective.

You look like you need it.

You know what I think?

I think sleeping
with all those women got boring,

And you needed to ratchet up
the thrill.

So first the beating,

then choking...

and now murder.

Well, you're the one
gettin' all hot and bothered.

You get off
on inflicting pain?

Unlike you, I don't need
to hurt someone to get it up.

We're gonna get a warrant
for your DNA,

and we're gonna
put you away for life.

You don't need a warrant
to take my dna.

How would you
like my sample?

Please tell me you got something
off that sleazebag's phone.

A.Q. Doesn't save
your contacts

unless you designate them
a favorite,

which pop up
as a yellow smiley face.

I don't see any.

That's because
he doesn't have any.

His favorites tab
is empty.

Yeah. Find 'em
and forget 'em.

He's smart,
doesn't leave a trail.

He must have
a little black book somewhere.

Did he download
any other quickie apps?

A bunch.

Craigsphone, powerchat,
whosaround, and faceunion.

Faceunion.

That's been around the longest.

I'll go to his profile page.
I can access his friends.

All female.

Can you run his friends list against
our database of open rape cases?

Here are his friends,
here's the svu database.

We got a match.

Rebecca Ellison.

I remember her.

She was blitz attacked
two years ago

In washington square park.

Same M.O. as Peter's.

Residence of Rebecca Ellison
Monday, November 16

Sorry.

I'm just getting over
the flu.

Oh, of course.

Is this
about my rape case?

Yeah. We're following up
on some new leads.

Rebecca,
can you tell me again

what you remember
about your attack?

He came up behind me
in the park,

pushed me down,

and got on top of me.

I'm so sorry
to put you through this again.

I know
you're not feeling well.

You told me that

you didn't remember
seeing your attacker's face,

but did you hear his voice?

No.

It all happened so fast,
and I blacked out, thankfully.

Does the name Peter Butler
mean anything to you?

I met him
a few years ago.

Online?

No, at a party,

and he friended me after
on faceunion.

Why?

You think he's the one
who raped me?

We're just clearing
every possible lead.

Rebecca, um...

Did the two of you
have a sexual relationship?

It was
more like a one-night stand.

He was really cute,

and I was going through
a wild period after college.

Was the sex with Peter
violent in any way?

He called me...

bitch and whore,

slapped and spanked me.

So he liked it rough.

Oh, god.

Maybe it was peter.

Peter Butler didn't rape
Rebecca Ellison.

You ran his dna
against her rape kit?

And through codis.
He's clean.

Well, maybe
for Rebecca's rape,

but he still could have
killed our victim.

Well, it's his word
against a dead girl's.

Do you find anything
linking him to Anna's murder?

Depends.

It's extremely difficult
to get latent prints from skin,

but Anna's neck
was very smooth.

I used surface-enhanced raman
spectroscopy and lucked out.

Problem is I need Peter's prints
to compare 'em to.

Stockbrokers are fingerprinted
when they get their license.

He should be
in the system.

Peter Butler's
not your killer.

You're tellin' me

that anna met up with
two sexual predators that night?

Whose fingerprint
could it be?

From the poroscopy,

I can see the print is
from someone who's young

or who hasn't worked
a day in his life.

Like Henry Christensen,

her jilted boyfriend
from seventh grade?

Christensen Residence
Tuesday, November 17

Henry is in bed.
He is sick over Anna's death.

- Well, then maybe
you can help us.

Do you know what time Henry came
home the night of his birthday?

Why are you hounding
my son?

Isn't it bad enough that you questioned
him at school like a common criminal?

If his prints don't match,
we won't bother you again.

What are you
talking about?

We have a warrant
to get his fingerprints.

Can you get him
for us, please?

Henry?

Henry!

Henry!

Henry?

Henry?

Did he run
when he heard us come in?

It's locked.
He didn't go out this way.

Well, he couldn't have
gotten very far.

Come on out, Henry.

Why can't you
just leave me alone?

'cause anna's killer
left two thumbprints

where he tried
to crush her trachea,

but she kept gasping for breath, so
he took a rock and bashed her head in.

-Stop it.
- The guy had a pretty weak arm.

It took her about five hours
to bleed to death out there alone

in the cold.

Why are you
doing this to me?

Those are your thumbprints,
Henry.

Tell me what happened.

I had to beg her
to go out with me.

All she cared about were

the stupid photographers
and her lame blog.

She blew you off
to hook up with this loser.

You couldn't let her
do that.

I followed her
into the park,

And I saw her having sex
with him.

It was disgusting!

He just used her
and left!

And I...

I told her that I still
loved her.

You know...

You know what she said to me?
She said that...

she never loved me.

She said that I was
just a boy

And that she needed
a real man.

She gave me a kiss
on the cheek.

I grabbed her,
and I begged her

to give me another chance.

She just started
laughing at me.

She told me
to leave her alone...

for good.

But I loved her.

I really loved her.

How could she
do that to me...

on my birthday?

How pathetic.

She's dead,
but he's the victim.

Even if she had lived,

she might have died
young.

What are you saying?

The semen
from Anna's rape kit

tested positive
for hiv.

It's from Peter Butler.

The guy who's been sleeping
his way across the city?

We just let a potential
serial killer go free.

Great story
in today's paper.

You here
to apologize?

- Hardly.
- We're here to talk about you, as

distasteful
as that may be.

It's nice to see you too,
Olivia.

-Couldn't stay away, huh?
- I just have to ask.

Why would a player like you have
anonymous sex without protection?

Condoms cramp my style.

Condoms protect women
from getting hiv.

- What are you saying?
- That you're hiv-positive.

I'm aware of my status.
You can go now.

You know?

And you're still having
unprotected sex?

I'm on meds.

Even with an undetectable viral load,
you can still spread the virus.

- What happens in my bedroom...
- Or a public park.

Is none
of your business.

Unless consensual sex
is illegal.

No, but assault
with your deadly weapon is.

Bigpeter,
you're under arrest.

For what?

Peter, what's going on?

It's nothing, grandpa.
It's a misunderstanding, okay?

-Parking tickets.
- Where are you taking my grandson?

We're taking him down to the
precinct to ask him a few questions.

What are the charges?

Attempted murder?

The way this guy was plowin'
through women,

He might as well have been
shooting a gun into a crowd.

We can't get him on rape, so
we go after him for spreading hiv?

Do we have proof
he infected somebody?

He's positive, he's slept
with hundreds of women,

and he's bragging
about riding bareback.

Alex?

There is precedent.

A Texas jury just sent a guy away
for 45 years for infecting six women.

And new york convicted
a guy over ten years ago

for knowingly spreading hiv.

We want to encourage
people to get tested,

Not arrest them.

Butler brags about nailing
a different piece of tail every night.

- Captain,
he's just like a rapist.

He gets off
on hurting women.

Only he's found a way
to injure his victims

without technically
raping them.

I'll say it again.

Do we know if any of his partners
have tested positive?

We haven't
found one...Yet.

Oh, there's no doubt
he's a threat to the community,

but I can't
file a complaint

until a partner
he has harmed comes forward.

You want me
to find someone

Peter Butler
infected with hiv?

- If we can't,
that son of a bitch walks.

There's got to be a way to figure out
who he passed the virus to.

Maybe there is.

Hiv commonly mutates as it's
passed from person to person.

A phylogenetic test

can determine the source of infection
by tracing mutations between samples.

Say that again.

This is a copy
of Peter Butler's hiv virus

with several highlighted
mutations.

We could compare
his mutations with other cases

and possibly find women
he infected.

Great. Let's run it.

Problem is, health department
records are confidential.

Well, if he infected women out there,
they deserve justice.

True, but even if we
get the records,

a lot of hiv testing
is anonymous,

so there are no names,
only numbers.

But at least we'll get
an idea of how many women

he might have given
a death sentence to.

Melinda,
you said it yourself.

This guy could be
a walking epidemic.

To do this properly,

I'll have to screen thousands
of hiv samples.

Have Cabot get
a court order

for the names of potential
infected partners.

I know where to start.

There's still a stigma
attached to hiv.

a lot of people
won't talk about it.

I'll bring reinforcements.

Hiv?
Are you crazy?

It's not the flu,
is it?

-Oh, my god.
- Rebecca.

Rebecca,
it's gonna be okay.

You just--you have
to be straight with us.

I don't know what to do.

I'm getting sicker.

Are you taking
antiretrovirals?

I can't afford them.

My new job won't cover me
with my preexisting condition.

How long
have you known?

I was tested
after I was raped.

So you were infected
by your attacker.

No, the doctor
diagnosed me with thrush,

said I'd been positive
for a few years.

Which was around the time
you slept with Peter Butler.

Did he do this to me?

He's hiv positive?

We can't disclose
anyone's status

-without their permission.
-But,

you can help us

by giving us
a blood sample.

That way we can analyze it

and determine whether or not
we can prosecute

-The person who infected you.
- I am so sick of giving blood.

I am sick of talking
about this disease.

I just want to go on
with my life.

I don't want to subpoena you
to testify as a material witnes

but having your blood analyzed
Can help save other women's lives.

Lots of women's lives.

Please?

I want to nail
the bastard.

You're goin' down, Peter.

Great.

You still don't think
you've done anything wrong?

Rebecca Ellison has aids

because you infected her
with hiv.

She let me have sex
without a condom.

All of them did.

They wouldn't have if you had
told them that you were positive.

The prostitute
who infected me

Didn't tell me
she was positive.

She didn't care
if she hurt me.

Oh, so this
is about revenge.

You need to degrade women.

You need
to make them suffer.

I only sleep
with whores.

And you're teaching them
a lesson

By infecting them
with your virus.

They ask for it,

So I give it to 'em.

Somebody really must have hurt you
when you were young.

Men that hate women this much
usually have mommy issues.

Is that what happened
to you?

You punishing
your mommy?

You leave her
out of this!

Guess that answers
that question.

You don't know anything
about me!

Well, I know that you still
live with your grandfather.

Now, what well-adjusted man
does that?

- My grandfather
raised me!

He's the only one who ever
gave a damn about me.

So did mommy
abandon you?

She beat you
or just ignore you?

You tryin'
to infect me, too?

You know what
the sad thing is, Peter?

No matter
how many women you hurt,

that anger

is gonna be inside of you
Until the day you die.

Yeah?

Well, part of me
is gonna be inside those women

until the day they die.

That bastard feels no remorse
for what he did.

Tell me that you have
a strong case.

Warner's report
just gave me my ace in the hole.

Now all I have to do
is convince judge Preston

To admit her expert testimony
at tomorrow's hearing.

Supreme Court
Thursday, November 19

I performed
a phylogenetic analysis

of dna sequences of hiv

on Rebecca Ellison,
Peter Butler,

and a random sample of people
in New York City.

And what did
your analysis determine?

Rebecca Ellison's hiv
is most closely related

To the hiv sequences obtained
from Peter Butler.

In layman's terms?

Mr. Butler infected
ms. Ellison with hiv.

You sound pretty certain.

Between 97% and 99%

that the sequences
are identical.

Did your analysis
determine anything else?

I compared mr. Butler's
hiv dna

with hundreds of hiv samples
given in New York City.

I found mr. Butler infected
11 other women in the area.

Thank you.
No further questions.

If mr. Butler
infected ms. Ellison,

it would have occurred several
years ago, correct, dr. Warner?

Yes.

Then isn't it possible someone other
than Peter Butler infected her?

Ms. Ellison gave me all the names
of past sexual partners,

and I tested them.

They all tested negative.

Dr. Warner, by ms. Ellison's
own admission,

she was promiscuous
for a period of time.

I doubt she remembers
all her sexual partners.

She says she remembers
everyone she had contact with.

But I discovered
something else.

Mr. Butler is resistant
to a drug called racivir.

Unfortunately, the virus
he transmitted to ms. Ellison

Is a racivir-resistant
hiv strain,

so there's a possibility
that current drug therapies

might not work
on ms. Ellison.

No more questions.

Court is adjourned
until 10:00 a.M. Tomorrow.

I'll issue
my ruling then.

So...Think the judge
will buy Warner's science?

If she doesn't,
we're in trouble.

Least we still have
Rebecca's testimony.

I'm not sure that's enough
to get the jury past reasonable doubt.

Are you okay,
mr. Butler?

Ever feel
like your whole world

just fell apart?

It must be hard hearing
those things about your grandson.

Which one of you
is leading the crusade?

We didn't leak it.

Well, somebody did.

You two been gunnin' for him
from the beginning.

We want him off the streets,
but we didn't do this.

I wouldn't be surprised
if it was Granger

trying to taint
the jury pool.

Not unless he knows how to hack
into a faceunion account, too.

Is that how the papers got the names
of the women peter slept with?

Probably.

Someone got onto his faceunion page
and posted his hiv status.

Told everyone on
his friends list to get tested.

Those women are gonna
be out for blood.

Well, bright side,
we may not need a trial.

A mob of angry
one-night stands?

Probably kill Butler
before we can convict him.

Well, if the papers have the story,
all the news channels must have it, too.

That courtroom is gonna be
a grade-a cluster.

Preston is issuing her ruling
in a half an hour.

If she doesn't allow us
to admit Warner's testimony,

we're screwed.

Supreme Court
Friday, november 20

All rise.

I've made my decision.

I'm going to allow the evidence
presented by dr. Warner.

I find it is reasonable,

And the jury
should hear it.

How am I supposed
to get a fair trial

after my name's been smeared
all over the internet and news?

This is an open hearing,

and, unfortunately, I can't control
what information gets released.

This court is adjourned
until 10:00 a.M. Tomorrow.

Your honor, may I say
something to the court?

No.
I've already issued my ruling.

I'm gonna have to ask you
to leave.

I'm sorry, your honor.

Peter?

Rebecca, no! No!

Call an ambulance!

Now you look like
the monster you are!

- Peter! Peter!
- I'm burning.

Hydrochloric acid.

That's horrible...

Even if the guy
is a psychopath.

Butler's gonna be
in the I.C.U. for a while.

He's got burns
on his face and hands.

He'll probably go blind
in one eye.

So what happens
with the trial?

Well, the case is on hold
until he's well enough to proceed.

Well, the worse Butler's
injuries look to the jury,

the more sympathy
he's gonna generate.

A man is savagely maimed
for life,

and you think I'm only concerned
about how to work the angle.

- Well, if it
quacks like a duck.

Lionel, your client is under sedation.
What are you doing here?

Oh, I'm uh...
I'm here to see you.

You're suing the d.A.'s office
and the department of corrections?

You failed to protect my client
while he was in your custody.

Drop the charges against him,
and we won't file.

Your client infected god knows
how many women with hiv.

They are
the real victims here.

You better hope
the jury sees it that way

after they lay
their eyes on him.

That son of a bitch, he really
thinks he's got the upper hand.

Well, he just might after
what Rebecca did.

She has made
a real mess for us.

And for herself.

The d.A.'s office wants me
to charge her with first-degree assault.

Alex,

the only reason
she was in that courtroom

is because you and I begged her
to press charges against Peter.

It's not like you forced her
to throw acid in his face.

Now I have to prosecute
my own complaining witness.

When that's done,
I go back to Butler's case.

"look how impartial
the d.A.'s office is".

What's her defense?

Rebecca Ellison was acting
in defense of others.

Peter Butler didn't threaten
anyone in that courtroom.

He didn't have to.

She heard how he infected
those other women with hiv.

She had to stop him
from ever doing it again.

Butler was on trial.

He wasn't going to be sleeping with
another woman for a very long time.

That's if
he was convicted.

Ms. Owens, I'm going
to have to agree with ms. Cabot.

Your client's actions
were deliberate.

She was
in no immediate danger.

In that case, I'm giving notice
that we're pursuing

an affirmative defense.

Mental disease or defect.

Ms. Ellison is hiv-positive,
not mentally ill.

My client has aids
and has been sick for months.

She can't afford
antiretrovirals,

and she had a recent bout
with cryptococcal meningitis,

which had a deleterious effect
on her mental stability.

The attack
was premeditated,

- for revenge.
- My client

was afraid that Peter Butler
was about to get off.

The stress of that exacerbated
her mental instability

And drove her
out of her mind.

You can't talk to me
without my lawyer.

I'll say I'm talking
to a witness

about my case
against Peter Butler.

What do you want?

For you to take a plea.

A six-month sentence
and probation.

No.

I want everyone to hear
what that monster did to me.

Rebecca,

if you get convicted,

you could go away
for 25 years.

You are not well.

Do not put yourself
through the stress of a long trial.

Even if I am convicted,

Ms. Owens says that I'll
be put in a hospital ward.

Where they will force
you to take medication,

and you will have to serve
out your full sentence, in jail.

Don't act so concerned.

You're the reason
I'm here.

You used me
to get to Peter.

How does going to jail help you
or the other women get justice?

How does that punish
Peter Butler?

That bastard will spend
the rest of his life

thinking about me

and all those other women
he infected.

Do not let your hate lead you
to make this wrong decision.

Please,

accept my offer.

I don't want your offer.

I want to tell the world
what Peter did to me.

Supreme Court
Thursday, December 10

Ms. Ellison, you told the court

You attacked Peter Butler
because he infected you with hiv.

That's what
the bastard did.

But your sex with mr. Butler
was consensual,

Was it not?

Yes.

So he did not rape you.

- No, but...
- At any point,

did you tell him to stop?

- No, but what he did to me...
- Ms. Ellison,

how old are you?

25.

Hiv has been in the news
since 1981.

Are you aware it is spread
through sexual contact?

Yes.

Are you aware you are at risk for
contracting hiv and other s.T.I.S

If you have
unprotected sex?

- Yes, but he...
- Then why did you choose

to have sex with mr. Butler
without using a condom?

I wouldn't have
if I had known he was positive!

Did you ask
if he was positive

or had any other disease?

No.

Ms. Ellison, you can
read english, can't you?

Of course.

Could you please read this
to the court?

"get tested.

"it could save your life
or the life of someone you love."

That is posted
on a billboard

approximately 350 yards
from the front door of your apartment.

It has had some kind of aids
awareness ad on it since the mid-'90s.

Can you read this one?

"I never thought
I'd test positive.

"I trusted him.

This didn't
have to happen."

That was on the bus
you took to work

Five years ago...

Before you slept
with mr. Butler.

And this last one,

this is from around the time
you and mr. Butler were intimate.

"anyone can contract hiv.

"don't be stupid.

It's the best 80 cents
you'll ever spend."

Do you recognize
where that ad was posted?

That's the bus stop around
the corner from my apartment.

Why are you doing this
to me?

To demonstrate that Peter Butler is not
totally responsible for infecting you.

You are responsible, too.

You chose
to sleep with him.

You chose to have sex
without a condom.

You chose a risk

the same way you could have
chosen to say no.

Please just stop it.

Please.

No more questions.

We'll take a brief recess
and then reconvene after lunch.

Excuse me, ms. Cabot,
may I speak with you?

Of course.

What's wrong?

What Rebecca did
isn't her fault.

Why are you prosecuting her?

Mr. Butler, she
seriously injured your grandson.

I can't just ignore that.

Then put me on the stand.

I want to tell everyone
what my grandson did to her.

Oh, mr. Butler,
I'm sorry. I...

I can't do that.

Mr. Butler,

you okay?

I tried
to warn Rebecca.

I tried to help
them all.

Just ran
into dewey Butler.

What's going on?

He wants to testify
on behalf of Rebecca Ellison.

Against his own grandson?

Well, he'll make one hell
of a sympathetic witness.

Can't say I'd blame the jury
If they let Rebecca off.

She did stop Peter
from infecting other women,

not that I agree
with how she did it.

But that's just it.

If rebecca goes free,
It sends a message to other victims

that it's okay to take the law
into their own hands.

Maybe there's a way
to keep him from testifying.

Do you know something
I don't?

Well, Dewey just said
that he tried to warn Rebecca

And help them all.

What did he mean
by that?

I have nothing
to say to you.

Good for you.
We're here to talk to your grandfather.

He's sleeping.

-The trial really upset him.
-You need to wake him up.

Come back tomorrow.

I think you're gonna
want to listen in

while he explains
how he tried to warn Rebecca.

My grandfather
would never hurt me.

Then why'd he hack your faceunion page
and call the media?

You're wrong.

It was that bitch,
Rebecca.

Well, this is his email
to msnbc.

Read that and weep.

Peter!

Grandpa!
Grandpa!

Grandpa, why?

Why'd you do this?

They're gonna
throw me in jail!

it's...
It's all my fault.

I should've
raised you better.

You saved me.

It was mom
who abandoned me.

But she didn't.

I lied to you about it

because I thought the truth
would hurt you more.

What are you saying?

Your mother was young
when she had you.

She didn't know
who your father was.

When you were three,

she met a man.

He beat her,

then he started
to beat you.

She shot him
while he was asleep.

She died in prison.

She went to jail

to protect you.

I thought I was
doing the same

by lying to you about it,

but it only fueled
your anger more.

Your mother loved you
with all her heart,

And so do I.

Oh, Peter.

Forgive me, but it was
the only way to make you...

-change.
- Grandpa, what's wrong?

- It's not too late
for you, Peter.

Sleeping pills.

Portable to central,
I need a bus at 327 east 49th street.

Become a good human being.

Peter,

don't let me die
in vain.

I'm sorry.

You hear me?

I'm sorry, grandpa.

Rikers Island
Friday, December 11

What are you doing here?

Releasing you.

Peter Butler
dropped the charges.

Why?

Because somebody gave their life
to help peter get his soul back.

What about my case
against him?

Peter pled guilty

to all counts.

Rebecca, Peter's grandfather
disinherited him.

He gave all of his money
to a trust fund

to pay the medical expenses
for the women that Peter infected.

You will get care
for the rest of your life.

It's over, Rebecca.

No, it's not.

My rapist
is still out there.

And we will never
stop looking for him

until you get justice.
