Hello.

Good afternoon.

Cristina Celaya Vega. Collegiate number 3128.

You will cover my fees.

Your sister Arancha asked me to represent you.

7 YEARS EARLIER

Is there a problem?

Well... So...

I recommend you not to do any statement

until you talk to the judge who will probably set you free...

-...until the trial. Any questions? -Is that true?

-I won't go to jail? -You have no prior record, but...

during the trial, in about a year, the accusation will try to prove

that you are guilty.

Are you?

-Are you guilty? -I'm not.

YOU WOULD DO IT TOO

A SHOW CREATED BY DAVID VICTORI AND JORDI VALLEJO

Mister Baz�n, cases like yours are judged by a popular jury.

Seven random people with no legal training will decide

whether you are guilty of your sister's death or not.

Both the witnesses and the pieces of evidence

presented will be important.

But your sentence won't depend on what they know about you,

but rather what they think about you. How they feel towards you.

According to the Law, the defendant can conveniently say

whatever is deemed necessary in his defense, true or not.

Are you asking me to lie?

Lying is part of your sacred right to defend yourself in this country.

And that gives us a chance to defend the best story for us.

This court calls the defendant, Dante Baz�n.

You are charged with the murder of your sister.

Unless the jury likes you, you stand no chance. Zero.

Now imagine you are in front of a jury.

What's your story?

-Hi there, handsome. -Virginia, how are you?

-Not bad, as usual. -I see.

Say hi to your sister, I hope she gets better.

-What do you mean? -Her ankle.

Those stairs are old and quite treacherous.

-True. See you! -Bye!

Let's go! Let's get out of here! Come on!

You saw that the door had been forced.

I immediately thought about the men that I saw running downstairs...

Luc�a?

Luc�a?

Inside everything was a mess. Her things of value...

And then I saw her.

Luc�a!

Luc�a, Luc�a!

This jury calls Mrs. Virginia Puello.

Good morning, Mrs. Puello. How are you?

You work as a doorwoman at Luc�a's house, don't you?

She was the defendant's sister, is that right?

-Yes. -Very well.

The day that Luc�a died, how many people walked down the stairs?

-I did not see or hear anyone. -You did not because there was no one.

The police report is clear: the door was not forced.

The victim knew her killer.

Mrs. Puello, you smoke, right?

In fact, you smoke on work time, which you have forbidden.

Well, maybe sometimes.

And, could it be that just when those men

ran down the stairs you were smoking?

It could be. I do not know. It was one year ago.

Right then I told myself: Cris, you just got the jury in your pocket.

80% of popular jury trials end up with an incriminating sentence.

Who was the private prosecution?

Alistar, an insurance company.

An insurance company?

They wanted to incriminate Dante so they wouldn't have to pay.

In order to avoid payment, the insurance altered the evidence

and used it against Dante.

The siblings were the first to testify in his favor...

but the prosecutor knew how to confuse them.

Mr. Baz�n, do you recognize this document?

Luc�a's loft mortgage?

And the other document?

It's the guarantee I signed for her.

She couldn't have got the mortgage, right?

-No. -Why?

Because Luc�a wasn't fit to get a mortgage.

What was your relationship with her?

I'm a bank manager.

Luc�a Baz�n was one of our clients.

She wanted to get a mortgage but she didn't meet the requirements.

Why?

Because of the sclerosis, we could only give it to her

if someone cosigned with a house.

The Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis is a neurodegenerative disease.

It is aggressive, debilitating

and has a 50% mortality rate after 18 months.

-Is it hereditary? -It could be if relatives had it.

Mom died of ALS, so all the siblings got checked.

What kind of test is that?

It is a genetic test that sees if you have the ALS gene.

Did you do the test to check if you could have that illness?

-Yes. -Was it positive?

No.

Did any of you obtain a positive result?

Only Luc�a.

This doesn't mean you're going to develop the disease, OK?

We're going to monitor you...

Among the symptoms are tickling...

Mr. Baz�n, what did you use as collateral?

My house.

That loft was... It was her whole life.

Mrs. Puello, could you please tell us

what Luc�a told you one day you met at the landing?

She said she fell of the stairs.

-Did you witness the fall? -No.

She never used the stairs.

Her fall was not a simple slip and fall...

but to what was inevitable.

Luc�a came to us eight months before dying.

-Could you tell us why? -She was having symptoms.

Mobility issues, muscle spasms... The usual early signs.

And how did she take the news?

It was a painful realization for her.

ALS tends to be very harsh on patients.

Mrs. Catalina, which of your siblings had a worst time

coping with the disease of your mother?

Luc�a. She was depressed for a while.

Did you see any sign that made you think

that your sister intended to kill herself

to avoid suffering the same fate as her mother?

I do not know.

Mrs. Catalina, you are before a jury, you must tell the truth.

No.

Mr. Baz�n, if your sister had taken her own life,

you would have assumed the debt. Right?

-I guess so. -And could you pay it?

No.

Luc�a knew that if she killed herself the bank would take his house

and he would have nothing.

But Luc�a also knew that if her death was not intentional,

the insurance would pay her mortgage.

Luc�a knew there was an alternative.

Staging her murder.

But she needed help.

I don't buy it. It makes no sense.

Killing your sister? In cold blood?

I see their point.

You are ill and what's ahead is a miserable existence.

So... Why not?

But from there to asking your favorite brother to kill you...

What then? Why did the jury buy that theory?

Why are you so interested?

I've told you. I'm writing a feature centered around the popular jury.

According to witnesses...

I did my homework, Leyre Palacios.

Do you believe Dante is that vigilante?

It's just a guess.

His identity has not been made public, so I'd ask for discretion.

A face and a name for the man of the hour... That's big!

Do you think he'd be capable of committing a triple homicide?

Not the Dante I defended.

But a prison sentence can change you.

And Dante was forever transformed.

Justice...

The system...

The system has a debt with Dante.

What's up?

He's been a fugitive for 4 years.

He never came back to prison after a furlough in 2019.

We had nothing on him since then.

According to the witnesses, he has a cell.

He doesn't have it on his name, nor a known direction.

-How do we know where he lives then? -Look.

He tried to take a car in a gas station. It's him.

I don't understand. Why didn't he fight back?

He desperately needs a car and didn't use the gun.

He left his jacket and we found it, this was inside.

It's a token for a laundry. We know which one.

-Are you going there? -We are.

Keep me informed.

OK.

Unit three! Come on! Let's go!

Let's go!

LAUNDRY

Let's go! Come on!

Come on!

Let's go upstairs, OK?

Go upstairs!

Let's go!

Police!

-Have you seen him? -Yes. Over there.

Let's go!

-Status? -Clear.

What's all this?

Mr. Baz�n, did you help your sister to die in anyway...

...either actively or passively?

No! She was already dead when I arrived.

Doctor, could you tell us how exactly the victim was murdered?

Bleeding out due to the section of her iliac vein with a knife.

Mr. Baz�n, did your sister ever ask you to help her die?

No.

Did the toxicology report find any use of drugs, medicine?

Just analgesics. They are prescribed to ALS patients for the pain.

Did you get along with your sister?

I would have died for her.

Is this kind of bleeding a painful death?

No, even less with analgesics.

The victim withers slowly as one might say.

I see.

Would you say that bleeding out is a good way to commit suicide?

-Objection. That's biased. -Sustained.

Counsel, no more insinuations. Only facts.

Understood.

You throw and throw shit and some of it will stick.

Then you firmly believe that Dante didn't kill his sister.

That's what you'd like, right?

For him to be innocent. Because if he actually killed her...

What a monster. Say goodbye to your hero.

I'm sorry, I have a trial.

NEW RECORDING

We're back to square one: we have no way to find him.

Aren't you afraid?

Of what?

Of how much we can change.

Baz�n was already the killer that he is now.

People don't change, Fran.

Thanks.

I told you I would call you. Don't call me again.

-I'm hanging up. -No, Camil! Listen.

I need another name.

No way. I already put myself in danger by disclosing his name.

And you got paid. Do you want more money?

Don't get cocky or I'll go to another newspaper.

No, don't you get cocky. If I snitch you, you are done for.

Who do you need now?

Jimena Cabello?

Jimena Cabello?

Are you Jimena Cabello?

-Yes. -Hi. I'm Leyre Palacios, from the TV.

Could we talk for five minutes?

I want to tell you something.

Thank you for your time. For real.

What do you need to know about popular juries?

Well, you were the president of a popular jury...

...you could tell me how seven people deliberate

before reaching a verdict.

In your case, how did you come up with a decision?

Look, here's a headline for your feature...

"Let the cobbler stick to his last".

Let the judges judge and we mind our own business.

What do you mean?

Pray that you'll never be judged by a popular jury.

A computer expert, a butcher, a philology student, a slacker...

...a teacher, a rancher and I.

What did we know about laws?

Among the seven there were two kinds of people...

Those who delegated their responsibility

and those who knew we could ruin a life.

-He killed her! -Really?

She sacrificed one brother to save another?

-I think it's a set up. -These enterprises only want money.

The jury reached an agreement.

That insurance theory made no sense.

And yet he was declared guilty.

What made you change your verdict?

She did.

Can you please state your full name?

Eva Arenas Gomar.

The ex-wife of the defendant.

How long were you married?

He asked me to divorce the year before Luc�a died.

Marriage didn't suit him.

I see. And when you heard about Luc�a Baz�n's death...

...did it surprise you?

Mrs. Arenas...

When you found out she had died, what did you think?

I thought about one specific night that Dante and I spent together.

He brought the divorce papers and although we were divorcing...

We spent the night together.

At around... I don't know, three... I woke up.

That look...

There was a battle raging inside him. And then he told me.

He told me about Luc�a dealing with the symptoms of her illness.

She was unable to work on her paintings and was depressed.

She didn't want to see her body rot as her mom's years before.

Continue, please.

And...

He told me that... Luc�a wanted to commit suicide.

She had not done it yet because �lvaro would lose his home.

But she had a plan.

And she needed Dante's help.

Did the victim ask the defendant to help her?

Did the defendant agree to his sister's proposal?

I don't know.

I never asked him.

That was like a last-minute home run.

Suddenly the idea of him murdering her was not that crazy.

Do you think the ex was telling the truth?

Who knows? But I bet she was "encouraged" to testify.

During the deliberation we voted what we felt was right.

What is the verdict?

This jury has decided, with 5 votes in favor and two against,

to declare the defendant...

guilty.

Fourteen years for murder plus a three-year tip for fraud.

Thinking about it now... It was unfair.

-Unfair? What do you mean? -It was unfair.

In dubio pro reo. Law school 101.

I learned it afterwards. When in doubt, always in favor of reo.

If you aren't positive the accused is guilty, he is innocent.

Us regular folks cannot impart justice.

One must seek the truth through the brain, not the guts.

I guess you could use it.

You don't have to help me.

Do you really have to do it?

If you do it, you will cause more pain to your siblings, you know?

Father... When I got on that bus I was sure about it.

I must do it.

Commissioner!

-I assume you found nothing. -Yes.

We have to reveal his identity.

There's no other choice.

Is it the only way? With all the media frenzy...

I see no other way.

The witnesses won't talk, they have a lawyer.

And if they did, they lie all the time.

The system has a debt with Dante.

It's awesome! But we can't use it.

She'd sue us. She's a lawyer.

How many people read my last piece?

I've lost count. A lot.

Let her sue. That's extra publicity.

It's getting worse.

Thirty people called the 911 and said they're the vigilante.

Let's reveal his identity and fill the country with his face.

OK. Publish it. Tell everything about him and his background.

I'll talk to his ex first to see if she lied.

People like him because of the press. We need to counterattack.

Let's say he killed his sister and he's a fugitive.

He's an asshole.

What if she didn't lie? What if he killed his sister?

I'll have no article then.

The myth dies before being born.

-Camil, do you have the ex's number? -No.

-I'm calling to warn you. -What's up?

We'll disclose his identity.

-Come on, Camil! -I cannot do anything.

Publish it now, so you're first.

And we will leak out all the shit about his past. I'm sorry.

-Borque. -Yes.

We need the report of the Baz�n's homicide trial.

-Did he do anything wrong? -Depends on who you ask.

Do you recognize any of these people?

-No. Who are they? -His siblings.

Jorge didn't have any siblings.

-Jorge? -Yes, Jorge.

Let's check the mailbox.

His new name.

I'll call the judge for an order to open this mailbox

and to track the phone of Jorge D�az Donoso.

What's going on here?

Fuck!

What's up, Alonso?

The relatives of the witnesses want to talk to you.

They're arrested. They won't see them until the hearing.

-And if they walk free. -OK.

Freeze!

Drop the weapon!

Drop the weapon!

You want me? Here I am, you bastards!

-Drop your gun! -I'm the vigilante!

I am justice! I am! Not you!

Throw your gun!

Don't tell me what I can and cannot do!

I decide!

-Take his gun. -Taken.

Call an ambulance!

I'll tell you when it's set.

We've located his cell phone, but the signal is too big.

-Were those shots? -And the vigilante?

He's alive. We've got his cell. We'll find him.

THE PAST OF THE VIGILANTE

Can you pinpoint the area?

Only if he connects to other repeaters.

What's going to happen to him?

Your hero is not a saint.

I got something, but it's weak.

Besides killing those three people, he also killed his sister...

CONVICTED FOR MURDER

...in cold-blood.

LAWYER: THE SYSTEM HAS...

...A DEBT WITH DANTE

Dante Baz�n is an asshole. You're helping him.

You're helping him.

The vehicle has stopped.

Perimeter has been reduced

We got him.
