Lieutenant Breeland found marijuana
in his search of the vehicle.

And you sent him to get the weed.

No. The house voted for barbecue,

and Jesse, he volunteered to go get it.

Toxicology report for Jesse Carr.

No traces of marijuana in his system.

Lieutenant Breeland threatened Shameeka

to keep quiet
about her son's murder... why?

I'm trying to get my head
around why a former cop

who killed an unarmed teenager
and didn't get prosecuted

is now working cops.

I just go after bad guys.

I think Beck's a good cop
in a bad department.

We need to work both cases.

Jesse's case and Joey's.

The police union is dropping you.

They don't want to look like
they condone what you said.

This correctional facility

will bring thousands of jobs
to this state.

This is Shawn, my youngest.

Thank you for coming
to visit us, Governor.

What do you really want?

I want you, Governor Eamons,
to serve as well.

Cory... no one's seen him.

How long's he been gone?

Ever since he talked to you.

I thought you were here for Jesse Carr.

Why are you looking at Joey Campbell?

Cory?

Hey.

Proceed about three-tenths
of a mile to U.S. Route 74 East.

In a quarter mile, turn left.

_

Tell him what you told me.

I was riding home on my bike

after playing video games
at my boy's house.

I was going fast 'cause it was 10:00

and I told my parents
I'd be home by 9:00.

Then, out of nowhere, this car
rolled up across the street,

chasing down Joey.

It was one of them
police sedans, I think.

They had him trapped against
a wall and then two cops

hopped out and threw him to the ground.

He was laying there screaming,
"Someone call my moms!

Someone call my moms!"

Over and over.

I mean, at first, he sounded angry,

but... by the end
he sounded like he was crying.

Then what happened?

An older white man
in, like, black military gear

got out of the car with the handcuffs.

Joey was still screaming out
for his moms

and wouldn't let them cuff him.

Then the old man shot him.

Everything went quiet.

What happened after that?

I don't know.

I got out of there as fast as I could.

Did they see you?

I didn't think so.

But they tried to run me over
a couple weeks after that,

either 'cause they knew what I seen

or either 'cause they seen me
talking to you.

We've been hiding him out

because we didn't know what else to do.

In Gate Station,
you don't go to the cops

to snitch on the cops.

Did you at least get
a good look at them?

Not the cops.

Just the old man.

If you saw this man again,
would you recognize him?

Yeah.

This is no longer speculation.

The Sheriff's Department
murdered Joey Campbell

and they're trying to cover it up.

We need to call the bosses
and open up the case.

- Not yet.
- What the hell are you talking about?

If we go after this, we're not targeting

a lone deputy who killed a white kid.

We're taking on an entire
sheriff's department.

In this town, that's like trying
to topple a small government.

We have to check the credibility
of our witness.

We need to be patient and keep digging.

I'm done being patient.

We apologize for
contacting you so late, sir.

I'm sure it's urgent, so let's hear it.

We have a 17-year-old boy

who's come forward to say

he's witnessed the murder
of Joey Campbell.

I'm aware of the case.

How long ago was the young man killed?

Six weeks ago.

And your witness suddenly found
a conscience?

He felt his life was in danger.

So why come forward now?

His uncle brought me to him to talk.

They decided it was the right time.

What did he say?

Two officers from the
sheriff's department

held down Joey Campbell
while an older man,

possibly a commander of some sort,

walks over and shoots him.

Now, the witness didn't see
the two officers' faces,

but he's confident he'd
recognize the older man.

What can you tell me about your witness?

He's never been in any trouble
with the law.

Is he in school?

He dropped out,
but he plans on returning.

African-American?

Yes, sir.

In a racially divided town,

an African-American dropout

claims cops who he can't even
identify killed a kid?

Found anyone to corroborate his story?

No, sir, but we find
our witness highly credible.

- I'll keep it on my radar.
- On your radar, sir?

That's it?

Yes, Mr. Terry, that's it.

And I'm beginning to wonder
if you're having difficulties

staying focused on the case
you've been assigned to.

We are making progress
on the Jesse Carr case, sir.

We've been working
without the benefit of video

or witnesses,
so we've been investigating

a number of possible scenarios.

- Update me by week's end.
- Yes, sir. Um, in the meantime,

we'd like to get this potential witness
into protective custody.

His concern for his safety
seems genuine.

I'll take that under advisement.

- What the hell?
- Shh! Shh!

- Stay there.
- Boys?

- Jay!
- Kerry, stay right there!

Stay here.

♪

We're going to have
a squad car parked outside

till this calms the hell down.

Thank you, sir,
but I don't need all that.

I'm not asking.

We take care of our own.

Sure doesn't feel like that, sir.

Excuse me?

I'm on desk duty.

The union dropped me.

And if the person
who did this was outside

when I came out with my gun,
I would have fired,

just like anyone else on the force.

But what would have happened
to me then, huh?

Did the neighbors see anything?

No, sir.

Not a thing.

♪ Dear Debbie,
I know what's on your mind ♪

♪ Baby, I've been treating you right ♪

♪ Dear Debbie, I know
what's on your mind... ♪

Why don't we just get it out of the way?

- What?
- The "I told you so."

I told you he wouldn't open
an investigation

based on a kid's word
against an entire department.

We should have built a stronger case
before going to the boss.

- I led with my heart, my bad.
- You led with your ego.

You finished?

If you can't listen to the one person
who has your back in all this...

- I got it.
- Do you?

Because I need you to have my back, too.

So what now?

The frat kids told you

Jesse was going to the hood
to buy barbecue.

But he still had marijuana
in his glove compartment.

I'm gonna track down
the school's weed connection.

You need to request
the department's arrest records

for the last three months.

- What exactly are we looking for?
- I don't know.

But we'll know when we see it.

This isn't about Jesse and Joey anymore.

This is about the entire
sheriff's department.

That was smooth.

You must be Brady.

Who wants to know?

Get up.

Word is if you want weed on campus,

you're the man to see.

But I'm not interested in busting you.

- Ask me why not.
- Why not?

Because I want to know about Jesse Carr.

- What about him?
- The weed that was on him

the day he was killed...
did it come from you?

Jesse wasn't into getting high.

How do you know?

I kind of make it my business
to know these things.

Is there someone in the hood

who might be a connect
for Jesse or his frat brothers?

If they wanted weed, why would they go

all the way to the hood for it?

My stuff's as good as anyone's.

Give me a 20.

Mr. Terry.

I need records for all the arrests made

in this department in the last 90 days.

I don't want digitized copies;
I want the original hard copies.

What is this, a fishing expedition?

It's a government investigation.
I'm encouraging you to cooperate.

- It'll take a few days to assemble.
- I'll give you an hour.

Young man, you need to learn
how to talk to people.

Sounds like you're saying
I need to know my place.

You may not have respect for
the citizens of this community.

Like it or not, you will respect me.

Your mother and I,

we're taking a loan against the house.

We're gonna have enough
to cover your legal fees.

Dad, no, no.

Y-You paid off your house years ago.

No, I'd rather take my chances
with a public defender.

You're not going down
for that white boy,

just like those good ol' boys
don't go down

when they killed one of ours.

You say that like you think
I murdered him, Pop.

I didn't mean it like that.

You know better.

I-I got to go back inside.

Love you.

Love you, boy.

Mr. Terry.

If you have a few minutes,
I'd like to show you something.

Where are you going?

This is about Joey!

Come take a look.

License and registration.

Yeah, I got it.

What'd I do?

You weren't wearing your seat belt.

And you can see that
from all the way back there?

You need to step out of the vehicle.

All of you.

The three of you need to turn around

and put your hands behind your head.

Do it now.

Pat them down.

What?

I don't have time to call for backup.

Easy.

Get your hands off me.

I said don't touch me, all right?

Hey, that's my kid!

Well, your dumbass kid should
get some common sense.

Get up.

Finish.

Turn around.

Watch them for me.

You have a permit for this firearm?

Envelope in the glove box.

Look all right to you?

Yeah.

Keep that seatbelt on.

Have a good day.

Complete waste of time.

What the hell is your problem?

This some sort of game to you?

You're the ones with the games,
aren't you?

You come here acting like
you know everything

about this town, about us?

Well, maybe I know more than you think.

That feeling you just felt...

that scared, angry tightness
in the chest...

that's what my deputies feel
every day in the Houses.

They're policing people who hate them.

Given the chance, some of those
people might hurt them.

Add that to the list of things you know.

Maybe people in the Houses wouldn't hate

your deputies so much
if they weren't known

for killing innocent people.

Is that your personal
or professional opinion?

Be careful before making
accusations you can't back up.

That your personal
or professional advice?

Welcome to Lorton Middle School,

located in the plush suburbs
of Gate Station, North Carolina.

I'm Shirlane Woods,

and I am honored to moderate
this town hall meeting

where we will discuss the new
Eamons Education Initiative.

Please join me in welcoming
Governor Patricia Eamons.

Thank you!

Good evening.

Thank you so much.

You all right?

Kind of nervous.

You'll be fine.

Just speak your truth, okay?

Governor, we'd love for you

to tell us more about your initiative.

Schools like West Gate Middle School
are closing down,

because they've lost
their accreditation.

And the people who are left to suffer
are the children of that community.

Therefore, under my initiative,

we will spend $3 million

not only to renovate

and train qualified educators
at West Gate,

but at four other schools
in the state as well.

I want to thank Pastor Janae Jones

for helping bring this crisis
to my attention,

along with the young man you'll
be hearing from a little later.

So while we're creating
a new and improved

West Gate Middle School,
students who attended

that school will be given a choice.

Currently, they've been told to go to
Jackson Junior High, 15 miles away.

This will remain an option.

However, former West Gate students

will also be given the choice
to attend Lorton.

So you're talking

about bussing kids from
the Houses to this school?

I'm talking about giving children

an opportunity to learn
in an environment

without overcrowded classrooms.

This is an opportunity to bring

divided communities together.

West Gate students and Lorton students

will benefit from this
beyond what we can measure.

Certainly the taxpayers will be
able to measure the costs.

Taxpayers won't pay a cent.

My initiative is privately funded.

From whom?

Arlen Cox and The Cox Group Financial.

Paid for by Penn Moder,

running for governor of North Carolina.

The safety of our children

is of the utmost importance.

Once elected governor, I'll continue

to work tirelessly to develop
legislation

like the Jess Carr "Call First" bill.

I just got back from Cory's motel.

His uncle's restless.

Cory's still scared.

I sent in another request
for protective custody.

I'll let you know.

How'd it go with the college kingpin?

He swears Jesse's weed wasn't from him.

I put his stash in the lab
to get checked out.

So what are we doing here?

I want to break down what happened
the day Jesse was killed.

Get inside their heads.

You're Jesse.

All right.

Where's your head at?

Well, a black RA beats me up.

My frat gives me hell
and they send me to the hood

for barbecue or weed or whatever,
and I'm pissed.

- And you had a drink or two.
- Right, so the last thing I need

is for some black cop to pull me over.

I'm the only brother in the department.

I see a white kid in the neighborhood.

Doesn't seem right.

I pull you over, ask for your license.

According to Beck, I don't comply.

Why not? Why wouldn't you comply?

Because I'm too drunk.

No, if you were that drunk
I would have known it.

- It would have been on my report.
- Okay.

Okay, because I know it's a bogus stop.

Racial profiling.

So I call you out on it,
refuse to give you my license.

I tell you to get out of the car.

Then something happens and you shoot me.

Question is do you believe
you did the right thing,

or are you thinking
of some sort of cover-up?

Where's your head?

I'm hoping that the life I took
isn't the life of somebody good,

with a future or family or friends.

I'm asking myself

what the hell I could've done
differently.

Then Breeland shows up, right?

Finds weed in the glove compartment.

Right, um, Breeland was the first
on the scene when Jesse was killed.

I found this in the police report.

"Calvert Breeland,
the first on the scene

to report the murder of Joey Campbell."

- Coincidence?
- Maybe not.

Maybe he's the key to us
getting Joey's case opened.

That guy has a wall up.
He won't tell us anything.

His wall will come down.
We just have to get him to want to talk.

No offense to those kids
who had their school shut down.

As I heard it, one of the reasons
it lost its accreditation

was because of rampant violence.

This is the neighborhood

where that drug dealer everyone
is protesting about was killed.

West Gate is being shut down

because the building
did not adhere to safety codes

and students received low test scores.

A school with 35 to 40 students
in a classroom

with one teacher
will always underperform.

And you can't generalize
African-American students

as a bunch of gangsters
coming to our town.

That's ignorant and racist.

The fact that someone would demonize us

for telling the truth is racist.

We don't care what color they are.
If those kids come to our community,

we're gonna have to install
metal detectors in our school.

Is that the environment we
want our kids to learn in?

Ma'am, you won't need a metal detector;
you'll need an open mind.

- With all due respect...
- No, no, hold on a second.

I'm a parent, too.

I want what's best for my daughter,

same as you want what's best
for your child.

That's the same thing
the West Gate parents want.

Governor, I will gladly
go along with your plan

to bring kids in from the Houses

if you're willing to send
your own teenage daughter

to a school near the Houses.

Show us how open-minded you are.

Okay, all right.

Okay, all right, please quiet down.

Quiet down, please. Okay.

Just right over here, ma'am.

Can I get you anything?

No, I'm fine, thank you.

Three months ago, you filed a complaint

against Lieutenant Breeland.

I'm one of the few people
in the neighborhood

not scared of that man.

Your complaint said
that he killed your husband.

Every Sunday

when me and my husband
were driving to church,

Breeland would pull us over
for no reason,

always looking for something.

This went on for about two months.

Then my husband told him
enough was enough.

Breeland arrested him
and threw him in jail

for being non-compliant

and threatening an officer.

He got out a few hours later,

but a month after that, my husband died.

You know how stressful that is,

being harassed all your life?

A 72-year-old black man
still dealing with that crap?

Whatever happened with the complaint?

Not a damn thing.

I'm at the kid's motel.

They're safe.

You know, there's a pretty cool invention

you might have heard about.

It's called e-mail.

You should check it out sometime.

There's another invention
called "kiss my ass."

Yeah, I think I heard of that one.

I was sending a letter to my daughter.

Handwritten notes are more personal.

I'll give you that.

We need a few minutes of your time.

I'm about to go on patrol.

That'll have to wait.

How would you describe
your relationship with Breeland?

He's my commanding officer.

He's had three complaints filed
over the last year.

What exactly do you want to know?

We want to know if you think he's dirty.

No. I don't.

But next time you want to talk,
then you call my union rep.

I see your poll numbers are up

among African-Americans
and college-educated whites.

But your white blue-collar base

seems to be favoring
Penn Moder, your opponent.

I like to approach the polls
with a healthy dose of cynicism.

You didn't do yourself any favors
with that town hall debacle,

but the boost we're gonna
give this economy

is gonna silence all of your critics.

Craig?

As agreed to,

regarding the Cox
Correctional Institution,

the Cox Group Financial
will employ contractors,

timber workers, and paper suppliers

from the state of North Carolina only.

The state will also get 50% of revenues

from prisoner phone cards.

In addition, the Cox Group
Financial will hire

400 full-time employees.

Sounds good.

I would like to make one adjustment.

Instead of the 85%
prisoner occupancy number

that we have been discussing previously,

I'd like the state to entertain
the notion of an 88% figure.

Now, I would be agreeing
to increased arrests,

longer sentences,

$30,000 per inmate?

But you would be able
to comfortably support

the entire Eamons Education...

Wait, wait, wait, your attorney
said we had a deal.

You said we had a deal.

We almost have a deal, Governor.

We're at an impasse here.

I remember when your word
meant something, Arlen.

I am a man of my word,

and I gave you my word that
I would help you to the utmost

in your re-election bid.

So who is it this time?

Some little old lady say

I didn't get her cat out of a tree?

Let's just cut to the chase, Lieutenant.
Let's go to the interview room.

I told you already,

I ain't sitting in the box
like a criminal for no one.

Here, then.

You're trying to build a case around me.

Why?

We're just looking into some things.

Got some questions to ask.

Fire away.

You were first on the scene
when Jesse was killed.

Well, technically, Beck
was first on the scene.

You were also first on the scene
when Joey Campbell was killed.

How do you always find yourself
at the right place at the right time?

It's called competent law enforcement.

Read some complaints on you.

Some would call what you do

harassment and abuse of power.

Take the good with the bad.

Is that what you teach
your deputies, Coach?

Beck learned racial profiling from you.

News flash:

profiling works on white people
and on black people.

You heard some complaints against me

and you want to believe that
you have me all figured out.

You have no idea
how many mothers and fathers

come to me to thank me
for keeping their kids in line.

You're actually looking at me
with a straight face

saying you're one of the good guys?

I had a screwed up relationship
with my daddy.

Hated him when I was a kid.

Calls me a few years ago,
tells me he's got the cancer

and he's scared
to go through it all alone.

My wife begs me to be nice,

so I figured, "What the hell?"

So I go through it all with him,

the chemo and the radiation bull.

A few months later, he dies.

For the way he treated my mother,

the way he left her to raise us,

I'd always thought of him as a bad guy.

Then I get to the funeral
and all these people

come up to me and they tell me

he's the greatest guy in the world.

Tell me stories
about how he's helped them,

that he was the only one that was there

when no one else was.

So, you see, this notion
of good guys and bad guys

doesn't exist for me anymore.

Perfect cop,

perfect citizens to police...
they don't exist, either.

We don't want perfect.
We want officers to uphold the law.

You see, it don't look that way to me.

One of you looks like

you're trying to make a name
for yourself

and the other one looks like
you're trying

to rid yourself of your demons.

You two wanna be good guys?

You should go back to D.C.,

chase down some crooked politicians,

and let us go about
the business of policing

the people of Gate Station.

You don't belong here,
and you never will.

Hey, guys!

Pastor Janae is calling again.

Is it about Arlen?

She's upset about his name

being involved
with the Education Initiative.

She feels it's a conflict of interest.

Without his money, it doesn't happen.

Is there any other way
to make the guarantee?

Yeah, pull from our
overcrowded state jails

instead of granting early releases.

What's your opinion?

I think you believe that better schools

will reduce the need for more prisons.

And I think you're right.

Get Arlen Cox on the phone for me.

Lorton's got all your school records.

When you get there tomorrow,

your guidance counselor will
give you your class schedule.

You're not hearing me, Mom:
I don't want to go to that school!

It ain't open for discussion.

How's it not open for discussion?

You want me to speak my truth, right?

Well, I'm speaking it.

I'm not going to that white school.

Even if you put me on that bus,

I'm not going to that school
where everybody hates us.

You ain't got to worry
about them people.

Maybe you don't, but I do!

There won't be 35 kids to a classroom,

everybody gonna get
their own computers...

- I don't care about all that!
- Start caring!

This school gonna give you a chance.

A chance at what?
Not making any friends?

A chance at not ending up
like your brother!

I lost Joey. I can't lose you, too.

I can't.

I can't, Shawn, please.

Please, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

Please...

I got you. I got you.

I saw the town hall meeting online.

Yeah? What'd you think?

Bad move politically, Mom,

but that's what made it so cool.

Thank you, I think.

But I do think someone had a point.

Who?

The lady that said you should
be open-minded enough

to let me go to a school by the Houses.

Yeah, that's not gonna happen.

- Why not?
- For one, it's not safe.

You're such a hypocrite.

I'm not saying the people are dangerous;
I'm saying the neighborhood...

That neighborhood is
made up of people...

a certain kind of people.

What are you implying now,
that I'm racist?

Liberals can be racist, too, Mom.

This is not about color, Katie.

Your dad and I want to give you
the best education

that we can provide.

If I think kids like Shawn
should have better schooling,

why would I send my own daughter there?

Because you can't keep asking people
to be impatient for change

while your own daughter
conveniently goes

to a $30,000 a year prep school.

How about we conveniently
change the subject?

Shawn Campbell.

- Will you help me pass some of these out?
- All right.

Who wants some Bulldog shirts?

Got more Bulldog shirts
if anyone wants one.

Whatever the hell is going on,

Breeland is in the middle of it,
or he knows who is.

Well, he hasn't given us much to go on.

We're no closer to getting
a case open on Joey.

Come on.

Where are we going?

To follow the weed.

There are over 600 strains
of marijuana in the state.

The weed that was found
in Jesse's glove compartment

does not match the stash
from the college dealer.

But it's the same strain of marijuana

found on Joey Campbell.

Even though Jesse was killed
four miles away

from Joey's neighborhood.

Even though they sell a totally
different strain of weed over there.

- What are you saying?
- I don't know.

Jesse and Joey knew each other,

or they bought weed
from the same dealer,

or somebody planted Joey's
weed in Jesse's car.

Either way, these two
cases are connected.

Are you thinking Joey Campbell
and Jesse Carr

were working together,
selling marijuana?

If they had a business like that
in play, we think the sheriff's

office would've discovered that by now.

What we do know is both of
these cases are connected,

both these boys are dead,

and it feels like a police cover-up.

Open up a case on Joey Campbell.

I want to know who murdered him.

And I want to know how he
and Jesse were linked.

- Yes, sir.
- Will you need extra support on this?

It's a delicate situation.

Uh...

We think it's in the best
interest of the case

if just the two of us handle it.

As you wish.

Keep me posted.

And... good work.

- Thank you, sir.
- Thank you.

- Yes!
- Finally!

This is pretty damn huge, right?

We got to celebrate.

Do you even know how?

♪ Just call me, baby ♪

♪ Love me right ♪

♪ Baby ♪

♪ Ooh, I love you, girl ♪

Yeah.

I see you.

You mind if I ask you
something personal?

Careful, you might not like
the answer you get.

Thank you.

You've been working at DOJ long enough

to work any case you want.

- Why this one?
- Justice calls, I answer.

I thought maybe it was because
you wanted to make things right.

Make what right?

You know, the night you shot that kid.

If your T.O. yells "gun"
and he's wrong, that's on him,

not you.

Not your fault.

I don't know if I'm trying
to make it right or not.

I don't know.

But I think about that kid every day.

Mm.

Come on, boss.

Let me see what you got.

I don't know if I can dance
to the blues.

Come on.

Get your butt out here.

I'm worn out, brother.

- Oh, come on, beautiful.
- Thank you.

I'm sure you ain't been worn out
in a real long time.

I said thank you.

Hey, the lady said, "No thank you."

The lady? Or your lady?

All you need to know is that
she ain't your lady,

so step.

Step?

See, that's how little boys
get in trouble,

sticking their nose
in grown man business, boy.

You about to find out
how much of a man he is

and how much of a bitch you are.

Yo, I ain't realize your chick
was that damn crazy, man.

Come on, bro.

You're crazy.

You know, that was a yoked-ass dude

you were about to fight.

What, you don't think
I can handle myself?

I wouldn't want you to mess up
that baby face of yours.

Like you said, you need to know
I have your back.

And now I do.

We done good today.

We did.

So, I'll see you in the morning?

Yeah.

First thing.

Even in the darkest night,

Yes!

When your friends, your allies,

they forsake you...

You're welcome to join us.

When your friends and allies
forsake you, there is a truth.

If you don't say it, it may not be said.

But as long as you have
the courage to face it,

as long as you have
the courage to tell it,

as long as you have
the courage to live it,

the truth will prevail.
