Hey! You can't go in there
without a search warrant.

What search warrant?
He's right there. Let's go.

Why risk gettin' cited? A few minutes
isn't gonna hurt the government's case.

Yeah, yeah.
Gimme that.

You go in there with this goon, you'll be
digging out of writs from now till Christmas.

Then you'd better start writing,
pal, 'cause we're goin' in.

I came here to get Mosca,
and that's what I'm gonna do.

So you better unlock that door,
or I'm gonna kick it in.

Sonny, come on.
Sixty seconds. Why push?

Because that slug ain't callin'
the shots, that's why.

I'm ready.

Now.

Ah, gentlemen!
You have something for me?

This is for you, counsel. Frankie.

Frank Mosca,
you're under arrest.

You must be puttin' me on.

I thought this was a social call.
You have a right to remain silent.

Anything you say may be used against you in a
court of law. You have a right to an attorney.

If you cannot afford an attorney,
one will be provided for you.

All right, all right.
Hurry it up, huh?

I wanna make bail and get out in time
for my racquetball game.

Don't be nervous.

That's very clever, Frankie.

You're gonna have a lot of time for this
where you're goin'. Come on.

Your Honor,

my client is the president
of Mosca Enterprises.

I have letters here attesting...

to his standing in his
home community in New Jersey,

as well as dozens of
other communities.

He is... He is the largest contributor
to New Jersey's leading charities...

as well as a respected businessman.

Your Honor, there is absolutely no reason
in the world that he should be denied bail.

Thank you very much.

Your Honor, Mr. Mosca heads one of the largest
organized crime families in the country.

He's charged under the RICO statutes...

and faces a prison term
of up to almost 40 years.

He does not reside in this state.

I am aware of the government's
concern, Miss Carson,

but it is my opinion that
Mr. Mosca is unlikely to flee.

Bail is set at one million dollars.

Court's recessed.

Mr. Mosca. Please!

Mr. Mosca, any comment
on the charges?

My client has nothing to say.
Excuse me.

Make an appointment, huh,

next time you drop in.

What's the next step
in your defense?

We got 'em. Surveillance logs.
Get 'em while they're hot.

They're signed and dated. And
the videotapes are right here.

Here's what we're faced with.

Mosca will go after witnesses.

He'll probably end up, uh, tr yin' to
intimidate or bribe or even suborn jurors.

I don't have to tell you. Mosca will try
any stunt he can think of to get a mistrial,

and every time he succeeds,
time passes and witnesses disappear.

You're all assigned to Justice
to make sure that doesn't happen.

- Won't the jury be sequestered?
- No.

We're expectin' too long a trial for that.
But they will be anonymous.

Under the RICO rules, we can withhold names,
employers, everything, even from Mosca's lawyers.

Mosca will go after witnesses.

Gina, Trudy and Switek
will handle jurors.

Crockett and Tubbs,
you guys handle the witnesses.

Before we split up,
I should say,

whoever your informant is,
without him, the justice department...

could never have made
this case against Mosca.

And we'd never get him
in his own state. Great job.

Thanks.

Crawford's agents will handle federal.
Any questions?

Good.

I always take a walk
when I talk business, Sid.

The great Joey Cataglia
taught me that.

You remember him?
Yeah, I remember him, Frank.

So how's it look, Sid?
It's not good, Frank.

Murder,

this... this union business
and now extortion.

Geez, Frank, they...
they got ya on tape...

taking money from some...
uh, some caterer.

"Ferrushi”... "Ferruchi”...
They got that on tape?

On tape. It was a small
business loan. I set the guy up.

You did your arithmetic
out loud, Frank.

All right. Well, don't worry
about it. We'll look into it.

You gotta keep
your self-confidence.

Meanwhile, I will personally
be looking for leaks,

looking everybody
right in the eye.

Joey Cataglia
taught me that too.

Anyway, the point
I'm trying to make is...

that I'm gonna find out
who fingered me...

so you don't
get surprised in court.

Frank, if you do find out
who's been talkin', please, please...

The thing to do is to get him on the
stand so I can break down his credibility.

That may be the way
they do it in Harvard,

but not here.

Hey, what's the matter, Frank?
Too much soda?

No. No, it's fine, Jimmy.
Fine.

All I want to know is...

what you told the feds.

Nothing, |I...
I swear, Frank. Nothing.

See that? I told you...

that Jimmy DePalma
would not inform on me!

Look me right in the eye, Jimmy.
Look me right in the eye,

and tell me that
you're a good soldier.

Frank, I'm a good soldier.

You know that, Frank.

So what're you
tr yin' to tell me, Jimmy?

Is it that you're trying to tell me
you have a clear conscience?

Absolutely.

Maybe it was, maybe it wasn't.

But now it is for sure
and forever, Jimmy.

Wipe everything down for prints.

Mr. Mosca.

Jack, sorry we're late.
Business. Any problems?

Nah! Nah, everything's copacetic.

Very good.

If you hear where maybe the feds got
their case on me, I'll be real grateful.

Spread this around.
Done.

Jack, the heat is on.

I'm expecting my boys
in Miami to handle it for me.

Oh, not to worry.
We're handling it.

You're handling it?
Yes, sir.

Okay.

Good.

No heavy stuff for
the next few weeks, okay?

Absolutely, Mr. Mosca.
Absolutely.

Okay.

All right.

All right, Rivers.

The linchpin to our Miami case
is that informant of yours.

We'd have an easier time
if we could use him up front.

Well, Alice, what I can tell you
is that he's a loan collector for Mosca...

and absolutely refuses to go into
a federal Witness Protection Program.

He won't consider it?
Absolutely not.

Forget it. I've tried many times. He
thinks anonymity is his best protection.

Frankly, I don't blame him.
I'm keeping an eye on him.

But you and your partner can't watch him
full-time for the rest of his life.

Now, look, Detective,
I'll be honest with you.

Mosca's lawyers are gonna trip
to the fact that there's an informant.

And after my direct examination,
he'll have grounds...

to open that line of inquiry,
and he'll want your informant named.

That would be
a death warrant for my guy.

What happens if I refuse?
The judge might compel you.

If I still refuse?

He'll throw you in jail.
He'll throw me in jail.

Ah, he takes it at the 30!

He's at the 50!
Oh, geez.

What are you doin'?
You're gettin' big.

Go play with this guy. Give
me a few minutes with you dad.

How you been, buddy? All
right, Terry. How 'bout you?

All right.

Jack.

Kid play too rough for ya?
Oh, man.

You got personal
liability insurance?

I think I may sue you.

What's up?

One more shot.

We've been through all this.

You've earned it, Jack.
Take the deal.

Look, you live with Mosca,
you die with Mosca.

I'm not going into any
Witness Protection Program...

and change our names and hide out in some
Podunk town for the rest of our lives.

We're negotiating athletic scholarships
with three different colleges.

Terry deserves a shot.
I'm gonna give it to him.

Wh-What do ya mean,
if something happens?

I'm not saying it will, kiddo.
I'm just saying if it does, it does.

Just you don't blow it.

I'm tr yin' here to make
your life better than mine.

Don't-Don't toss it away
by screwin' up like I do.

You didn't screw up, Dad.
Yeah, sure. Right.

After Mommy died, I...

I got into some things.

You know what I mean.

There's nothin' wrong
with you, Dad.

There is. What I did was dumb,
and that's what I'm saying to you.

Don't be like me.

Look.

If something happens,

if ya need... whatever...

Look at me.
You trust Sonny.

You hear me?
He's a friend.

Okay.

Come on, doofus. Come on.
Let's go play some ball.

What're we doin'
sittin' around here?

Please be seated.

Will the attorneys
approach the bench, please.

Miss Carson, I have considered the
applications that you put before this court,

and I will grant you your request
for an anonymous jury.

Second, I am satisfied that your
arguments supporting a possible link...

between the defendant
and the DePalma killing are convincing.

Therefore, I am revoking the
defendant's bail, effective immediately.

- Thank you, your Honor.
- Your Honor, this is outrageous!

This is... This is persecution!
This is... This is vindictiveness!

This is... This is systematic
and sadistic brutalization of my client!

Mr. Shenker, I would suggest that you restrain
yourself from this incoherent outburst.

- I think he's saying he doesn't like the idea.
- And that goes for you too, Miss Carson.

Bailiff, will you take Mr. Mosca
into custody, please.

Sid.

Make sure I get the good cell.

And I want the 35-inch
stereo TV from the den.

Louis, call Giuliano's.

Make sure they know where
to send the veal cutlets.

Oh, and Louis,
don't forget the cannoli.

Seven and a half pounds,
ladies and gentlemen.

One of the most
comprehensive indictments...

of one man's contempt for the law and the rights
of others ever brought by the U.S. Government.

Not one crime,
but an appalling pattern of crime...

inspired, controlled and committed...

by that man, Frank Mosca.

During this trial, you will hear
the term "crime family."

When you hear the word "family,”
substitute the word "business”...

because Mosca Enterprises
is a criminal business...

with a well-defined
chain of command.

Only...

it is a secret, sordid business.

It has to be.

For as we will prove,
Frank Mosca's real business...

is loan-sharking,
stealing from the unions...

and murder.

We have three vans
in the garage downstairs.

The first two vans to leave
are a diversion.

They contain U.S. Marshals.

The point is to never repeat the same pattern
so Mosca's men can lock on.

Today, the second van
carries the jurors.

Tomorrow, it's male
or female Metro police.

Day after, we'll use a school bus.

The jury rides courtesy of
the school system.

Wednesday, it's six limos
and we'll mix it up.

Every day the jury uses
a different drop point...

malls, public parking,
the Metrorail station.

But Mosca's guys
can't cover everything.

Well, let's not forget,
they only have to get lucky once.

That's why the two-phase system.

Every juror gets an escort home.

Any tails, and we stop the parade.

No tails. He's clean.

The prosecutor is claiming Mosca is receiving
special treatment at the Metro-Dade jail.

Mosca's lawyer
denied the charge.

The government makes no secret
of the fact that they're out to get my client.

They've invented these
ludicrous charges...

special privileges, veal marsala in jail.

Come on. My client
doesn't even like veal.

Sid looks good on TV.

Louis...

Louis, do you have to
go to the bathroom?

Come on.
You're my guest.

The chef at Giuliano's
doesn't want any food sent back.

Ah, this place. It just brings back
a lot of memories, you know, Frank.

It crimps my appetite.

Yeah.
I know.

You done your share
of time for me.

I know the dates,
and I know the reasons.

I know who is loyal.

And believe me, when all this is
over, those who hang in with me...

will be justly rewarded.
No problem, Frank.

But, Louis, there is a problem because
there's still some big mouth out there...

who's tr yin' to knock me down,
and I want him.

We're tr yin'.
Nothin'.

We're squeezing the streets dry.
See, that's the thing.

The feds work just as hard as we do
to keep it off the streets.

But inside, in here,

you hear things.

Am I right?

I got a couple of things
for you to check out. Sure.

Okay.

Come on. Eat.

Are you nervous since you heard
about the DePalma killings, Mr. Ferrugi?

Why should I be nervous? This
whole thing is a misunderstandin'.

This money that I asked
to borrow from Mr. Mosca. What...

Come on, Mr. Ferrugi!
Don't weasel out on us now.

We got your original deposition
right there, in which you stated...

Mr. Mosca forced you
to take the money.

I have you on the stand
tomorrow, Mr. Ferrugi.

It's critical.

H-How could I forget?
I was wrong.

Ten years ago, he lent me money
for my daughter's wedding.

And which you are now paying back
and have been paying back...

at five percent a week, and
you're gonna keep pa yin' it back.

Ferrugi, relax. Come on now.
Settle down here.

We can walk you through this.
You're gonna be okay.

No, no, no.
Y-You don't understand.

I'm beginning to.

Mr. Ferrugi.

Thank you. You gotta
understand my position here.

Go on! Get on outta here, Ferrugi,
before you change your story again.

Oh, wait. Here.
Thanks for the "cannolis."

Here we go.
The house of cards effect.

Guys like Mosca know they can make our case
crumble by scaring the hell out of people.

First one witness,

then two,

then 10.

So in all your time as trustee
of the pension fund for Local 135,

Mr. Shawcross, y-you never
once actually met Mr. Mosca?

Is that correct?

That's correct.

Never met him.

Well, didn't you find that
a little strange, Mr. Shawcross,

that as trustee, you never met the man
the government claims controls this fund?

- Objection!
- Sustained.

No further, Your Honor.

- If I may, Your Honor?
- Certainly, Miss Carson.

Mr. Shawcross,

in your capacity as trustee,

did you withdraw an amount
of cash every week...

and place it in
a manila envelope?

Yes, I did.

Well, was it
a plain manila envelope?

No, it bore the insignia
"Mosca Enterprises."

An envelope like this?

Yes.

Your Honor, I'd like this envelope marked
government exhibit 151 and admitted.

Your Honor,
may I see this... envelope?

Thank you.

Now, uh, Mr. Shawcross,

did there come a time when
you met with an agent of the F.B.1.?

Yes, Miss Carson.

And, um, did the agent
approach you with some...

foreknowledge of the illegalities
of Mosca Enterprises?

Get down!

Order! I want order in this courtroom!

Bailiff! Order!
I want order in this court.

Bailiff, clear the court!

I needn't remind you
that this is a court of law.

! want both counsels
in my chambers at once.

This court is in recess.

Louis.

This is ex-Officer Crimmer, boss.
He's got something you oughta hear.

I read about your trial, Mosca.

Uh, I used to work for County.

Well, uh, when I worked there, uh,

a detective in our unit was
tailing a guy from your outfit.

A guy named Rivers.

Well, this detective,
a good friend of mine...

suddenly he's off the case.

Seems this guy, uh, Rivers,

was busted over here in Dade...

and snitched.

Ex-Officer Crimmer,

this information
is very valuable to me.

As you know, I'm a generous man,

especially to those
who do me favors.

Now, I hope you don't think me rude, but
Mr. Brisco and I have a few things to discuss.

Anytime, Mosca.

Want me to take care of it, boss?

No.

No, Louis.

Not that way.

I got a better idea.

Detective, you were present
at the surveillance post...

throughout the evening
of August 4?

Yes, ma'am.

Will you tell the jury, Detective,
what gave you cause to believe...

that Mr. Mosca was receiving
an illegal loan payment.

Well, we heard on the parabolic mike...

the defendant use the term "juice,”

which is street slang for
an extortionate rate of interest.

Thank you, Detective.

Detective, have you ever operated
recording equipment...

on 19th Street
before August 4 last?

- Many times.
- You've... You've caught pimps and hookers doing business.

And sometimes loan sharks.

Isn't it a fact, Detective,
that on August 4 last,

you had no interest
in pimps and hookers?

Counsel, Vice always has
interest in pimps and hookers.

Very funny.
Very funny, Detective.

But, uh, as I see here...

in this news clip dated August 1,

well, there was a major Vice
roundup conducted...

on the evenings of July 28 and 29.

What's your question, counsel?

The ques...
Oh, the question, Detective, is...

isn't it a fact that when you
went to 19th Street on August 4,

you had no intention
of arresting pimps and hookers.

You were there because an informant had told
you that Frank Mosca was going to be there.

Detective, I must direct you
to answer the question.

You've cleared the courtroom.

We've taken all the precautions.

You don't have to
worry about security.

- I understand that, Your Honor, but...
- "But." "But." "But." But what, Detective?

Yes, there was
an informant involved.

Ninety percent of undercover work
involves the information from informants.

And in this case,
Detective, who was yours?

Your Honor, counsel is asking
the detective to betray a confidence.

- Oh, that's hardly relevant.
- It's most certainly relevant to the safety of this informant.

Undoubtedly a three-time loser who traded lies
about my client for a free hand to make book.

Objection. Counsel has established
no basis for these slanders.

Public identification will put
the witness's life in danger.

Sell dope and run prostitutes...

while venal law officers
like this one look the other way.

Common decency demands... For once |
agree with the government counsel.

Common decency demands that
we dismiss this entire indictment,

which is nothing
but a stew of rancid meat...

that makes me want to
retch and vomit!

Mr. Shenker! Both attorneys
approach the bench.

I want this off the record.

I am beginning to feel more like
a lion tamer than a justice.

Where do you learn
such courtroom behavior?

As I said, Your Honor, before, the detective is
very concerned about the safety of his informant.

And I must insist again on the substantial
need of my client for cross-examination.

Rules of disclosure. Yes, yes, yes. I know all
about the rules of disclosure, Mr. Shenker.

Proceed!

Now, Detective,

who told you you'd find Frank Mosca
on 19th Street that night?

I refuse to say.

Detective,

I must order you to
answer the question.

If you refuse, I will have to
hold you in contempt.

I'm sorry, Your Honor,
but I cannot say.

It will endanger the life
of my informant...

and inhibit my ability
to do my job.

Then, Detective, you are in
contempt of this court.

Bailiff, confine the detective
to the Metro-Dade facility.

Court is recessed.

Officer, I was standing at the window
and I watched these two men...

Hey, Terry!

Are you all right?
Rico.

Two guys show up
early this morning.

They woke up the whole
entire neighborhood, man.

They made a big racket.
They... They took my dad, Rico.

Who were they? I don't
know. Nobody knows.

They just...
They came, uh, they left.

They were gone.
My father left everything.

He left the car, his wallet.
Everything, man. So where were you?

I just got back. I was in the
play-offs over in Lauderdale.

What's happened to my dad, Rico?
You gotta tell me what's going on.

Hey, look, look. Hey, you know your
father kept some pretty tough company.

Do you have any idea?
Aw, come on.

Nothing like this
ever happened before.

Why can't you tell me
what's goin' on?

Look, we'll have plenty of answers
once we find your father.

Right now, I don't want to
worry about you.

Look, you got anybody you can
stay with? Any friends? Anybody?

1, uh... I don't know. I'll stay with
somebody on the football team.

Okay. Excuse me, Officer. If you
could help him get his bags together...

and then give him a ride to his
friend's house, I'd sure appreciate it.

Just be cool, you hear?
It's gonna be all right.

Rico, find my dad, man.

Bring him back.

- Hello.
- Rico, I think I found Rivers.

Alive?
So far.

I was running this morning's wants and warrants.
County sheriff's office popped him this morning.

Possession with intent.
Are you kiddin'?

Rivers is no drug dealer.

He wouldn't come within
a city block of drugs.

Maybe, but he's being
held at Metro-Dade.

Mosca set this up.

Listen, Trudy, call Carson and have
her get a hold of Judge Delaporte...

and spring Rivers now.

Bailiff!

Hey, I need to make a phone call.

I can't hear you, Rivers.
Sign here.

Cell 51, "D" Block.

Enjoy your stay, Rivers.

Hey, Burnett.
Sonny, is that you?

Mickey Shapiro.
Remember me?

- Hey, Mickey.
- Hey, what happened?

The heat catch that big, fast boat of yours
with some weight on it maybe?

Nah. I was havin' a little party
and, uh, some narc crashed it.

Busted me with a lousy
two keys. Ya ready for that?

Yeah. Well, uh,
you showed up at the right time.

There might be some fun
in the ol'doghouse tonight.

Yeah? What's the buzz, Mickey?
What's goin' down?

Some guy got brought in,

the guy who snitched
on Frank Mosca.

We're here to see the
judge. It's an urgent matter.

Hello, Judge Delaporte. Excuse us
for interrupting your afternoon.

- Hello, Judge.
- Detective Tubbs.

A federal witness was arrested today and
incarcerated at the Metro-Dade facility.

The circumstances surrounding
his arrest are suspect at best.

Yeah. We believe he's in specific danger
of being killed while inside that facility.

I took the liberty of typing up an order requesting
you to authorize the release of this witness.

He'll remain in Detective Tubbs's custody
pending a review of the matter.

"Rivers"?

I don't recall seeing this name
on the witness list, Miss Carson.

Your Honor, this man's value as a potential
witness only recently came to light.

I'll sign it.

Thank you so much, Your Honor.
Have a good day. Have a good day.

Trudy, call the Metro-Dade lockup.
We got a release.

Tell them to bring Rivers
down to the release area now.

Tubbs clear.
Nice work, Counselor.

Rivers.
Huh?

You're wanted downstairs.

There's a Detective Tubbs waiting.
You're gettin' out.

What is the delay?

They'll be bringing him
down in a minute.

Jack.

Sonny.

What the hell's goin' on?

It's okay.

Rico's downstairs.
I'm gettin' out.

Don't worry, Sonny.
It's okay.

Jack?

Jack?

Jack!

I never figured you
for a cop, Sonny.

Just never figured it.

Your father was...

trying to help us, Terry.

But he knew too much, right?

It was worth his life...

so you could get Mosca, huh?

Is that what you came
to tell me, Sonny?

You were his friend, right?

Where the heck were ya?

Huh?

Where were ya, pal?

He knew it was comin', Sonny.

Said if anything happened to him,

I was to give you this.

It's Mosca's personal diaries,

copies of his bank accounts.

So what do you think, Sonny?

Can you get him with this?

This is everything we need.

Every record of every payment collected
or paid to Frank Mosca.

Oh, they've indicted the con and the
guard responsible for Rivers's murder.

We gonna have any trouble
getting this admitted, Alice?

No. There won't be any problem
with authenticity or relevance.

This is one round our friend,
Mr. Mosca, is going to lose.

Miss Carson, I have examined this new
evidence submitted by the government.

It relates directly to the case, and I can
find no reason why it should not be admitted.

Uh, Your Honor, for the record,

the defense objects to the introduction of this, uh,
so-called evidence as irrelevant to these proceedings.

It will only unfairly
prejudice against my client.

Your objection is noted,
Mr. Shenker.

If this case ends in a conviction,
you have the right of appeal.

You may proceed, Miss Carson.
Thank you, Your Honor.

Um, the next witness in
this case will be a Mr. Bianco.

Your Honor, an important matter
has just been brought to my attention.

It will be necessary to
excuse the jury, Your Honor.

Bailiff, escort the jury
to the waiting room.

What's this all about, Miss Carson?

Your Honor, this letter states
that a juror in this case,

Juror Number Seven,

has received substantial money...

money which was paid to him
to influence his vote.

The letter even states where
the money can be found, Your Honor.

I'll see both counsel
in my chambers at once.

That's not mine.

I've never seen that bag
before in my life.

Mosca planted it
to get a mistrial.

I thought we were watching.

We were.

But not close enough.

I am... angered...

that the security measures in this
trial have been effectively breached,

and I have my own theories
as to how that happened,

but if I let this trial go to term,

an appeal is certain.

- Correct, Mr. Shenker?
- Quite certain, Your Honor.

Therefore, I have no choice...

but to declare a mistrial
and release the jury.

I will entertain written motions from the
government to refile for a new trial, Miss Carson,

whenever the calendar permits.

Uh, Your Honor, pending a decision on the part of
the government as to the disposition of this case,

and in view of the length of time
usually required,

the defense requests that
the defendant be released on bail.

Yes, I'll grant that, Mr. Shenker,
subject to revocation.

Bail is set at the original
one million dollars.

Can we get a statement,
Mr. Mosca?

My client will say
a few words outside.

You play racquetball, Crockett?
I got a court at 7:00.

Excuse me.

Did you attempt to
bribe a juror, Mr. Mosca?

Did I bribe a juror? That's the
most ridiculous thing I've ever heard.

I don't bribe people.
I don't bribe people.

It's against the law.

Does the government have
a vendetta against you, Mr. Mosca?

Well, what would you call it?
An admiration society?

That's all for now, ladies and gentlemen. I'll have a
statement for the press. Follow me over here, please.

Mosca!

-Terry...
- Stay away, Sonny.

Just stay away.

Don't do it, man.

Don't... do it.

This guy killed my father, Sonny,
and he's just walkin' away.

Terry,

if you go off behind this,

you mess it all up, man...
the whole thing.

My father gave his life for this bastard,

and the judge just let him walk?

Business as usual,
I guess. Huh, Sonny?

Terry...

What does it mean, man? What
does it mean? What does it mean?

Terry. Man,
I feel the same as you,

but this guy's only gonna be on the street
for as long as it takes for a new trial.

Don't blow it, man.

Please don't blow it.

That's what your father did it for.

Terry, that's what it means, man.

Go ahead, Mosca.

Make it easy.
