We're going to have
to pay for that.

I'm worth it.

Do you know the man you shot?

No.

Did you plan to kill him?

No.
Sohat happened?

What, you
and your girlfriend...

Amanda isn't my
girlfriend... Take your dad's car

Amanda isn't
my girlfriend. and you drive

and decide
you're going to shoot

a perfect stranger
for kicks?

No, that's not
what happened.

Then why don't you
tell us what did happen, Billy?

She met him online.

The victim?

Yeah, on favespace.

Favespace?

It's a Web site where
people chat online.

He talked her
into meeting him.

AMANDA:
He said he was a freshman

at Notre Dame. He drove
down to meet me, but when I got

to his motel room,
it was this old guy.

He was bald and he smelled bad.
Oh, my God.

Why in God's name would you
meet a stranr at a motel?

You know better than that.

You could have been raped,
you could have been killed...

Mr. Ross, we're going
to have to ask you to wait outside.

Okay. Go on.

I'll be quiet.
BILLY: He was supposed to be

a college guy, only he
turned out to be a perv.

DRUMMER:
Now where were you?

I just dropped Amanda off.

She told her parents that we
were going to the movies.

That's what he
told me, too. And then what happened?

He kept trying to get me
to drink rum and cokes and take my shirt off.

He kept saying
he needed a hug.

He offered me money.

He had this camera
he wanted to tape me with.

The door was
locked and chained.

I thought he was
going to rape me.

Oh, Amanda.

Did he touch you?

He kept trying to,
and so I told him I had to pee.

I went in the bathroom
and texted Billy.

BILLY:
She texted me a meage

that just said, "Help."

So you grabbed a gun
from your house and went back.

No.

My-my dad keeps a gun
in the glove box.

The glove box?
MAN: I have a permit.

I went, I went back
to her motel room door

and I heard this
sketchy guy, like

begging Amanda
take off her clothes.

The gun was just to scare him.

AMANDA:
There was a knock at the door,

and when the guy opened it,
Billy came in holding the gun.

BILLY:
The bald guy.

The pervert.

He got real aggressive with me.

He was really drunk.

He kept shoving Billy,
trying to scare him.

I told him to back off.

It's like he didn't even care
that Billy had a gun.

But he wouldn't listen to me!

I was crying so bad
I could hardly breathe.

And I shot him!

And then Billy shot him.

Boom, boom.

I don't know
what happened.

I just... ueezed the trigger.

My hand was, my hand
was shaking so bad.

ANNABETH:
Why did you run away?

I was scared.

And there was blood everywhere,

and I didn't want
my mom and dad to find out.

I felt stupid
for even meeting that pervert.

I just wanted
to get out of there.

You could have
called the police.

I know I should have.

Were you ever going to?

You shot this man twice
and fled the scene.

I was just so scared.

Whato we know
about the victim?

Well, his name's Evan Bennet.

He's 35 years old, no priors,
married, two kids.

Works at the
Weekly Chronicle.

And poses online
as a college boy.

It's the wild, wild
west out there.

Pedophiles are posing
as whatever works.

If the victim
really is a pedophile,

good luck getting a conviction
on a murder charge.

ANNABETH:
Look, I want to believe these kids,

and given
the state of the world,

their story is credible, but

they didn't
make any effort

to let anyone know
what was going on.

Instead they just
left the victim to die.

I could make a case for intent.

There's also an argument
for self-defense.

Let's seize Amanda's computer
and the victim's computer

and see if this
online chat story checks out.

And in the meantime, until
the facts tell us otherwise,

we'll hold Billy
for murder one.

Welcome to the
information super highway.

Why you doing this?

My husband was not
a child molester.

He was a good man
and a devoted father.

How much time
did your husband spend

on the computer,
Mrs. Bennet?

That's photography,
not pornography.

The computer, did he stay up
at night using it?

He's the one
who was killed.

He's the victim, and you're
treating him like...

Mrs. Bennet, I'm
prosecuting the young man

who killed your
husband, so I need

to know all the
facts. The defense

is going to argue
that your husband

was an online predator.

Well, he wasn't.

Predators are very good
at keeping secrets

from their families,
especially their wives.

Maybe he was meeting that girl
to interview her.

He w an investigative
reporter.

Do you really believe your
husband was doing an interview

in a motel, at night,
with an underage girl?

Well, he often met people
at strange places

and strange hours.

Mrs. Bennet,
did your husband

usually tell you
what he was working on?

Yeah.

But not this time?

I guess not.

We found
something here.

Are these girls members

of your family?

No.

DANNY:
The victim's computer is a horror show.

He downloaded thousands
of photographs

over the last three months.

He has links
to child porn sites,

e-mails to kids where he poses

as a high school student
or college guy.

Sometimes even a little girl.

Ah, here's one.

"Sometimes I do my homework in
my underware, how about you?"

"Ware"-- W-A-R-E.

DANNY:
Yeah, he misspells words on purpose.

Sick.

What did we find
in Amanda's computer?

Exactly what she told us--
e-mails from Bennet,

cluding one
where our college boy

confirmed their meeting
at the motel.

He even sent her a map link
so she wouldn't get lost.

Amanda spent
dozens of hours

exchanging messages and
images with Mr. Bennet.

ANNABETH:
And the catch is, her pictures are real,

his are fake.

He poses as a
college-age Brad Pitt.

What are we looking at?

It's Amanda's
favespace Web page.

She calls herself "Hot Girl"?

Kids create identities
for themselves on this site.

They post photos,
discuss their interests.

They're creating
alter egos for themselves.

But her alter ego
is "Hot Girl."

Isn't that
a little provocative?

It's pretty tame,
compared to her friends.

Check this out.

Hello.

Pretty normal nowadays.

A virtual invitation
to a sexual predator.

"Hot Girl" certainly
caught Evan Bennet's eye.

She pursued him, too.

She initiated several
of the e-mail chains.

This guy chatted
with fifth graders, too.

Pedophiles call
it "phishing." Drop your bait

and reel them in.
We do need to know if he

was on assignment, but
this doesn't look like investigative journalism to me,

and if he was doing a story,
it just provided him with cover

for his pedophilic behavior.

I'll talk to his paper.

Bennet was doing a story
called "My Life

As a Perv."

What?

Yeah.

He was writing an expos?

on how easy it is
for sexual predators

to do their thing--
collect child porn,

lure kids-- and how

all the while,
they keep it hidden

from their friends and family.

Wait, you knew he was contacting

these children online?

Of course.

They were the primary sources
for the article.

But his wife didn't know
what he was doing.

She wasn't supposed to.

That was part of the story.

Bennet was

a bit of an unorthodox guy.

Do you think we could
look at his notes?

Yeah.

ANNABETH:
According to his notes,

Bennet befriended
these kids online

in order to get them to meet him
for interviews in person.

Befriended them how?

By complimenting them.

Sometimes offering to buy them
presents or give them money.

You call that journalism?

I'm sorry, but that
crosses the line.

You don't lie to kids,

and you don't bribe them
into mting you.

I totally agree with you,

but he was writing
a story about predators.

That's what they do.

Okay, let's see if we can
find these so-called sources.

See if they
corroborate his notes.

If they do, Billy and Amanda's
story begins to fall apart.

Well, their story
is already falling apart.

Here is the ME's
toxicology report.

Said the victim
wasn't even intoxicated,

not even a little bit.

There was alcohol in his mouth,

but he never ingested it.

What, he
rinse with it?

Also, the rum bottle
we found in the room--

no fingerprints on it.

Somebody wiped it clean.

If Bennet wasn't
the crazed pervert

Billy and Amanda describe...

lly's claim
that he killed him

to protect Amanda
goes out the window.

We know you talked
to Evan Bennet.

You can't tell
my mom, okay?

You have to promise.

You do understand
I'm a police officer.

You can still promise.

Why don't you tell me what you
know and we'll see.

You ever met this man?

He offered me 500 bucks
to meet him at the mall.

Figured it wouldn't
be a big deal

to show up at the food
court and collect my money.

But when I got there,
he was different

than his picture
he e-mailed me.

He was a reporter.

He told you that?

Yeah. He said
he was working

on some story
about how pervs

meet girls
on the Web.

You know a girl
named Amanda Ross?

No, I don't.

This guy Evan Bennet,
he ever try to touch you?

No, he just kept
asking me questions

about why I talk
to guys like him.

He ever try
to get you to go

to a motel with him?
No.

So he never tried
to molest you? No.

He was a nice guy.

He promised not to tell my
parents what I'd been doing.

Just as long as
I stayed off the Web.

He said if he ever saw my image
up again, he would contact them

and tell them to
take away my computer.

He said he was
a pare, too.

That's why he was
doing the story.

We know Bennet was
a journalist doing an article

about the dangers
of the Internet.

He met with half a dozen kids

as part of his story.

We've spoken to all of them.

And?

I want to know if Amanda

still wants to stick
to her prior statement.

Why?
Don't you believe her?

Mrs. Ross, all of the kids
Mr. Bennet interviewed

corroborate the fact that he
was very up-front with them

about being a reporter.

He didn't act
like a reporter.

He acted like a monster.

You're the only one
who claims that.

Ask Billy what happened.
He was there.

My son deserves a meda
for what he did.

They don't pass those out
fokilling an unarmed man.

A man Billy claims

was acting drunk
and aggressive.

We know the drunk
part isn't true.

All the ME's
report shows

is that Bennet wasn't
intoxicated.

Doesn't prove he
wasn't acting crazy.

Doesn't prove he didn't intend
to hurt that girl and Billy.

It proves someone
poured rum into his mouth

to make him look drunk.

ANNABETH:
The evidence shows

you not only failed
to report the murder,

you altered the crime scene
and participated in a cover-up.

I want to know who did what.

You've already admitted
to pulling the trigger,

so you're in the hot seat.

What did Amanda do?

Nothing.

Billy was protecting me.

If he testifies about
Amanda's involvement,

is there a deal
on the table? No, no deal.

Why are you protecting her?

Just give us a moment
to discuss this.

No!
Aren't you listening to me?

There's nothing to discuss.

don't appreciate
you talking to me

like I'm some
criminal or something.

Why did you and Billy
kill Mr. Bennet?

BILLY:
Amanda met him

in a chat room.

She thought he was in college.

Only he turned out
to be a pervert!

That pervert got real
aggressive with me.

I told him to back off,

and he wouldn't.

So I shot him.

Boom, boom.

Daddy, I want a lawyer.

ANNABETH:
She'll need one.

We're charging her with
conspiracy to commit murder.

Conspiracy to commit murder.

Miss Ross, how do you plead?

Not guilty, Your Honor.

The People request that bail be
set in the amount of $300,000.

Oh, that's ridiculous.

We request that my client

be released to her parents,
Your Honor.

ANNABETH:
Without posting bond?

HELLMAN:
She doesn't pose a flight risk.

Really?
She's shown little regard

for the judicial
process up until now.

She lied to the police,
she lied to our office...

That remains
to be proven.

She fled the crime scene,
that's a fact.

These are the facts.

My client is
a straight-A student.

She is the president
of her student council,

she is a youth
volunteer at her church.

She has no
prior history

of any disciplinary
problems whatsoever.

We have a list of over
40 character witnesses,

and on the other hand,

the so-called victim
in this case was a pedophile

who lured this young lady
into a motel room,

for the sole purpose...

The only persons...
...of molesting her.

...who claim Bennet was a
predator are your client

and her coconspirator.
Not true. Kayla Philby was molested

by that man a year ago, and she
will swear to that on the stand.

While I admire
your flair

for the dramatic,
Mr. Hellman,

you would be best served
to save it for the trial court.

Setting bail at $200,000.

( gavel pounding )
Next case.

Amanda is the victim here,

and that guy, Evan Bennet,
was the criminal.

He lied to her,
he seduced her,

and he dupeder into meeting
him at that motel.

I think the only one who's
been duped is you, Doug.

Your client has lied
to everyone all along.

She sounds credible to me.

And you know
who else ds?

That girl.

Do you know Amanda Ross?

Yeah, we go
to school together.

When this reporter
tried to molest her, too, I had to come forward.

So what happened, Kayla?

I was chatting on myfavespace
and this guy said

that he was a
modeling agent.

He said I was unique.

He wanted more pictures of me,
so I agreed to meet him.

Where?

At his studio.

Where was his
studio, exactly?

Downtown, off Meridian.

Okay.

He...

He, um...

The reporter guy
had a big camera.

Except it was video.

He said I might be able
to do movies, too.

He wanted me to pose
in my underwear.

I was scared.

He said I should have a drink,
you know, like whisky.

He locked all the doors,
and I couldn't get out.

He said if I told
anyone, he'd kill me.

When did this happen?

Last summer.

Can you be more specific?

It was August.

EDITOR:
She's ing.

Bennet was doing a story
down in Texas last August

on the Iraqi war protests.

I've got dates
and receipts if you want them.

He was down there
for the whole month

with one of my photographers.

I can get you an expense report.

Yeah, we'll need it.

I don't understand how these
girls can just lie like that.

Clearly, Kayla is just
trying to help her friend.

I'll sue them.

I can sue them, right?

Amanda and that girl Kayla?
For slander,

defamation,

for taking my husband's name,
reputation, and memory

and running it
through the sewer.

I don't think now
is the time for that.

No, then when?

When would be the right time?

Mrs. Bennet, a civil suit
would just shut people up

and impede our prosecution.

My neighbors--

they look at me
like I'm some kind of monster.

The parents

at my son's day care,

pull their kid's close
when I pass.

They probably think
I molest kids, too.

My little girl...

she just
wants her daddy back.

And I tell her...

I do, too.

MAUREEN:
Your statement is worthless, Kayla.

The dates don't match,
and we can prove it.

I don't understand.

Your daughter lied to us
about the molestation.

Oh, that can't be.

It takes a lifetime

to build up a reputation, Kayla,

but just one minute to destroy
an innocent man's name.

We're charging you with perjury,
a Class D felony,

that carries a sentence
of six months to three years.

Oh, my God. Kayla.

Amanda...

Amanda had video of me
with the boys at this party.

With boys?

Having sex.

MOTHER:
How many boys were you with?

She taped this?
Mom, I'd been drinking.

I hardly remember
any of it. Oh, my God.

And she blackmailed you?

She said she was going
to post the video

unless I told you guys this
reporter molested me.

Post the video where?

On the Internet, like she's
done with her Web parties.

What do you mean, Web parties?

Amanda gave a bunch of us

these webcams
for our bedrooms.

You've seen it, Mom.

It's right on top
of my computer.

Send some investigators
out to the school.

I want to know why Amanda's been
giving away these webcams.

And if she's tri to blackmail
anybody else.

Amanda blackmailed
her, Doug.

Look, nobody can prove that
anybody blackmailed anybody.

Now this young lady Kayla
is obviously confused

and ashamed and looking for ways
of gaining attention, sympathy.

Save it for the jury.
This was a desperate attempt

to cover up a murder,
and you know it.

Doesn't a murder
require a motive?

Now what motive would
Billy and Amanda have

for killing Evan Bennet if he
wasn't a child molester?

See, that's
what I thought.

You don't have one.

Without one, you don't have
much of a murder case.

Amanda got Billy to set up
the webcam for me.

He even installed
some software he wrote.

He's such a nerd.
Billy did this?

Yeah, he's really smart.
He like skipped two grades.

I heard he could have
gone to college last year,

but his dad wanted him to get
his driver's license first.

So what did Amanda
get out of this?

What do you guys do on these
webcams she gave you?

Nothing.
We talk to each other.

Sometimes we play strip poker
and stuff.

You guys played strip poker
on the Internet?

Yeah, all our friends do it.

And Amanda would organize this?

Yeah, she would organize
other stuff, too.

Skinny dipping dares,
cheerleaders gone wild.

Just goofing around.

It's not like anybody
touched anybody.

You guys want us to abstain,

the Web is like the ultimate
safe sex.

And Amanda would host

these parties on the Web
for everyone to see?

Oh, not everyone.

We just showed stuff to each
other and the boys we liked.

Sure, I watch the girls' webcam
parties. I mean, who wouldn't?

They play strip poker.

It beats Jeopardy, man.

So you save these webcasts?

Yeah, I download them,
burn them for my friends.

You know, not all the guys

get it for free.

Wait, wait, wait.

This girl charges people
on the Internet?

Yeah, they use mycyberwire,
dude.

MAUREEN:
We're issuing a subpoena to mycyberwire.

I want to nail down who's buying
these webcasts,

and exactly what they pay.

STEVE:
What's mycyberwire?

MAUREEN:
It's an online payment service.

If I agree to buy
something on the Web,

say photos or webcasts,
I pay through mycyberwire,

which has my credit card
number on file.

Is that safe?

It is if you're buying
pornography.

There's no record kept

of how the money is spent.

Just dollar amounts, dates and a
record that money changed hands.

Why haven't we found
evidence of these webcasts on Amanda's computer?

She must have stored the images

on an external hard drive
the police couldn't find.

What about Billy's computer?
Nothing yet.

He encrypted his hard drive.
We can't open the files.

Detective Ortiz has three guys
working on it around the clock,

but we still managed to get
copies of these webcasts

from other guys at the school.

I got a pair of threes.

I got an ace.

Well, I got
three aces.

You lose, Sarah.

All right. Here goes.

There you go.

Wow.

These girls look like
they're totally oblivious

to the fact
that anyone's watching.

Why didn't we do that stuff
when we were in school?

Jack.

God, what if this was Haley?

Hey, if Haley ever tries
anything like that,

she's grounded for life.

I'm talking locked in the room
until she's married.

Yeah, like you're not
going to try that anyway.

I've got an idea.

Why don't me and you go in the
bedroom and make our own video?

Hmm, that sounds like fun.

We're married, it's legal.

Honey, I'm sorry,
just have to go

through all these DVDs.

All right.

I have motions to prepare.

It's always something,
isn't it?

I'm sorry.

Annabeth, you've been
pushing really hard

since you lost that trial.

I know I have.

Well, you need a break.

What do you want me to do?
I'm up at the crack of dawn,

I take Haley to day care,
I work all day, and then

I come home to make dinner,
and I still have

things left to do
for the case, Jack.

I mean, I can't just
be at your beck and call.

Right.

Amanda's been profiting off
these webcts she organized.

4,000 transactions
at an average of $40 apiece

in the last six months.

She's a high
school senior, and she's running

a $320,000-a-year business
from her bedroom?

Okay, we're in
the wrong line of work.

She makes more
than we do combined.

So I'm thinking Amanda's
sellinonline tickets

to watch her school friends play
strip poker on the Internet.

This couldn't have been
just boys from her school paying to watch this.

She must have sold monthly
passes to outsiders.

Pedophile's dream.

This girl is smart. She was
careful not to participate

in the webcasts heelf.

How could she do this
without participating?

Well, if she had
a webcam in her room,

she must have dumped it

before we got there.
She's probably

communicating with her buyers
through instant messaging.

You can't trace it.

Which gives us
a motive for murder.

Evan Bennet must have discovered

her little online
entrepreneurial streak.

How?

Well, pervs have
their own

chat rooms. They probably
tued him on to her.

She wasn't afraid
he was going to molest her.

She was afraid
he was going to expose her.

So why did Billy shoot him?

Well, we know
he set up the webcams.

He must have been involved
in her business.

I'm just here
to inform you that,

in addition to the conspiracy
to commit murder charge,

and all the other
charges you're facing,

we'll be adding
distribution of child porn.

You can't prove that.

We can prove she sold explicit
images of underage kids online.

Now, you have no evidence aside
from her mycyberwire account,

and that just
proves that she got

money.
You can't ove

for what.

Doug, we've got dozens
of witnesses--

kids who paid to watch
the webcasts,

kids who are in the webcasts,
sometimes unwittingly, including

the girl she triedo blackmail
into defaming the victim.

I'd like a minute alone
with my client, please.

Okay, she's willing to deal.

She'll confess?

No. She won't confess
to any wrongdoing,

and she's not going to testify
against her friend Billy.

No. No deal.
Wait, wait, wait, it. Wait a minute, now.

She may have something
potentially more valuable

than a confession.

Evidence that could
lead to the arrest

of the people who purchased her
webcasts-- over 500 of them.

Now, what if
you had a log

of who received what--

images, names, dates,

specific requests
for underage girls?

She could give us that?

Hypothetically.

If she did, you could

get search warrants,
and my guess is,

if you search their houses,

you could
find everything

that you need to put
these sexual predators away

for a very, very long time.

In exchange for...?

A walk. Two walks.
One for her, one for Billy.

That's a nonstarter, Doug.
Besides, think she's bluffing.

I don't believe she has any of
this evidence. And, if she does,

it's only a matter of time
before we find it.

Well, what if there's a hard
drive you don't know about.

The police haven't
found it now.

What makes you think
they'll find it later?

Think about that.
I mean, they're two smart kids.

They can go to college,
get on with their lives,

and you get to put 500
child molesters behind bars.

You'll be a hero.

And they get away with murder.

Everything in this life has this price, Annbeth

500����will be huge

Just balance the scales.

Every predator-slash-
child molester preys

on 100 kids in his lifetime.

That's a lot of victims
and a lot of ruined lives.

I can't make this deal.

Look, if we can
find a way

to put enough pressure on
Amanda, then maybe she'll

turn over the evidence she has
and agree to do time.

That's a big if.
Or maybe Billy's computer has something on it.

That's an even bigger if.

Steve, I know I lost

a big trial, but...

Annabeth, this is not
about trusting you.

It's about making
judgment calls.

That's 500 creeps, Annabeth.

Indy 500.

My killers walk, Jack.

People end up thinking
Bennet was a child molester.

How do we explain
that to his family?

I mean, if this
had happened to us,

I wouldn't want
Haley's memory of you

to be that you
re some pedophile.

It wouldn't.
You'd see to that.

So will Bennet's widow.

I just don'tant to give up.

So don't.

It's not in your
nature, anyway.

I'm sorry I've been so busy.

Don't worry about it.

You know, one of the benefits
of me working so much

is that I get to save up
a lot of vacation time.

Oh, yeah?

Yeah.

We could use it
to go somewhere.

Maybe somewhere exotic.

Ooh. Exotic.
Yeah.

I like that.

With a beach.

Maybe topless.

Not going to happen.

I don't want us to be so busy
that we start drifting apart.

What about Haley?

Haley can stay with my mom.

So just the two of us
on a beach?

Let me think about that.

( giggles )

( phone rings )

Uh-uh.

You're not
on vacation yet.

( ringing )

This is Annabeth.

You cracked it?

The guys finally
opened Billy's files.

ANNABE:
Please tell me you found enough to put the Indy 500 away.

Sorry we didn't.

Billy programmed all this
encryption just to hide the fact

that he was only watching
one person online.

Just one?

Now, imagine
that this is your hand,

and, when I do this,

it's you touching me.

Feels really,
really good, Billy.

Lover.

You're the only one.

No one else gets to do this
but you.

Billy.

Thousands of hours
of this filth,

all perfectly cataloged, too.

Dates, times.
He watched her do everything.

This stuff, dressing,
homework, showers...

She had a webcam
in the bathroom?

Bathroom,
bedroom, closet.

He wated her from all angles,

all day, all night,
all the time.

This kid even watched her sleep.

Oh, Billy,
I love you so much.

I dream about you doing this
all night long.

This was on your computer,
Billy.

Thousands of hours
of Amanda Ross on video.

I don't see what this
has to do with anything.

The kid had a crush
on her. So what?

You were obsessed with her,
weren't you, Billy?

Is that why you've
been protecting her?

Why you killed for her?

You helped her sell

child porn online, too,
didn't you?

You're the one
who knows computers.

This is your last chance
to help yourself.

I'm not going to testify
against Amanda.

Billy, she used you.
Can't you see that?

She took advantage of you.

Do you really think
she loves you?

Do you really believe you were
the only one watching her?

The only one she put on
these webcam shows for?

I know I was.

I programmed her webcam.

I designed the software.

Guess what.

She outsmarted you.

You logged every hour
of Amanda's private shows,

so we compared the times
she was ing that

to the times payments

were deposited into
her mycyberwire account.

She was selling a lot of tickets
to the shows you were watching.

HELLMAN:
You called this meeting.

I assume it's regarding

our proposal?

It is.
We're rejecting it.

With all the hysteria

surrounding pedophiles nowadays,

the jury is just going
to eat their story up.

Their story? Her story.

Billy's testifying
against her.

Here's a counteroffer.
You confess,

and turn over the
evidence you have,

we'll consider a reduction in
the years you spend in prison.

I don't think so.

we'll see the court time

Billy,why did you killed Evan Bennet

Because Amanda asked me to.

Mr. Bennet had
figured out that

she was making money

by getting her friends
to striptease

and do stuff on the Web.

And she was scared

that we were going
to go to jail.

You, too?

Yeah.

Because I helped her
with computer stuff.

Billy, will you describe
how you and Amanda

carried out your plan
to kill Mr. Bennet?

Yeah.

She got him to meet her
at a motel.

My job was to wait
in the car until

she texted me.

That's when I went up
to the room and shot him.

Was that the entire plan?

No

Amanda wanted to make him
look like a perv,

so she told him
to bring his camcorder.

She said it was
for the interview,

but it was really
to make it look

like he wanted to make a video
of them having sex.

She also brought rum
to make him stink like a drunk.

I... I poured

rum into his mouth
afteI shot him.

And what happened next?

We were supposed
to wait for the police

and she was going
to act all, like,

"Oh, no! Oh, no!

The pervert molested me!"

But I chickened out and ran.

Well, that's some story.

Not the same story

you told the police though,
is it?

No, sir.

It's the story you told
the prosecutor's office

in exchange for a more favorable
plea deal, isn't it?

It's the truth.

The truth?

The truth is you were the one
that shot Evan Bennet.

Yes.

And now you're trying to put
the blame onto my client.

She told me to kill him.

So she forced you to do that?

She put your finger
on the trigger

and she made you pull it?

BIY:
She said...

e said I could touch her.

Excuse me?

Amanda said that if, that
if I killed Mr. Bennet...

...that I could touch her.

For real.

I loved her so much
that I said yeah.

So you are telling me
that you agreed to murder

another human being
simply in exchange

for the chance to touch this
young lady?

Aren't you listening?

Oh, you're coming
through loud and clear.

Amanda, why did you agree
to testify today?

Because I want the
people to know the truth about what happened.

And because I wanted them to
know how easy it is for kids

to be tricked by pophiles
on the Internet.

So it doesn't happen
to other children.

That's right.

Why don't you begin
by telling the jury

how you first got
involved with webcams?

I got my first webcam
two years ago as a gift

from my grandparents so I could
chat with them in Florida.

Billy showed me how to use it.

And at some point did you begin
talking to other people

besides your grandma
and grandpa online?

Yes.

Including strangers?

Yes.

Did any of these strangers

ever offer you money or gifts?

Yes. This guy offered to set up
a mycyberwire account for me

if I tried on
my bathing suit for him.

Then more guys started asking me
to do things for them, too.

What sort of things?

Exercises,

aerobics.

One man wanted me to paint
my toenails for him.

's not as creepy as it sounds.

Did these men ever ask you
to do sexual things for money?

Yes.

Men like Evan Bennet?

Yes.

Now did he ever, at any point,
tell you that he was a reporter?

No.

He tried to molest me.

He kept pawing me and trying
to get me to drink stuff.

That's why I texted Billy.

Billy said you already
had a plan to kill him.

Now, is that true?

No, I didn't know Billy
was going to shoot him.

I didn ask him
to do that.

He did that on his own.

I think he was jealous.

HELLMAN:
Thank you, Amanda.

Amanda, just so we're clear.

You're saying you never met
Evan Bennet

before that night
at the motel?

Never, not once.

And you had no idea he was
an investigative journalist?

Is that your story?

That's the truth.

The People would like to recall
Billy Hampton to the stand

as a rebuttal witness,
Your Honor.

Billy, had you ever seen
Mr. Benn

before that night
you shot him? Yes.

Where?
a cafe.

That's where he and Amanda met
in person for the first time.

But they had talked before.

He said he was writing
a newspaper story

about Web sites like hers.

She told me all about him.

So why were you there?

To protect her, in case
he turned out to be a perv.

So you mean
you followed Amanda

to the cafe without
her knowing?

Yeah, they didn't see me.

I even took a picture.

Billy, I'd like you to look
at the People's exhibit.

this an enlargement
of the photo you took

that day at the cafe?

Yes.

So why did Amanda and Mr. Bennet
meet later at the motel

if they'd already
met at the cafe?

Because she didn't want to do
the interview in public.

She told him

that she'd only do it
somewhere really private...

like a motel.

She'll plead to conspiracy
to commit murder

and give you the evidence
she has on the people

who purchased the webcasts.

In exchange for?

Eight years.

Same as Billy.
Billy cooperated. She'll do 20.

But Billy's the one
that came up with the idea

to sell the webcasts
to start with.

Amanda, it's over.
You can stop lying now.

I'm not!

He's the one that wanted
Mr. Bennet dead.

He's the one that wanted
to protect the business.

Why would he?
You're the one who kept all the money.

That was my cut.

He made his money
blackmailing the pervs.

Some of these guys are doctors,
lawyers, businessmen.

Billy tracked

their puhases.

He told them he
could get them arrested.

Unless they paid him off.

To an offshore account
he set up.

Why didn't she tell us
about this before?

She thought
if she had,

she would have conceded
her guilt.

She is guilty.

BIY:
She's lying.

Again.
We obtained

bank subpoenas for your webcast
customers, Billy.

We know
that dozens of them

withdrew tens of thousands
of dollars

over the last six months

and it's only a matter of time

before we confirm
that they wired the money

into the same account, yours.

They'll never agree to testify.

We can be pretty persuasive.

We had a deal.

The deal's off.

Both Amanda and Billy

have agreed
to do 20 years, each.

And we're getting evidence

that could put hundreds
of sexual predators behind bars.

My daughter's five years old,
and last fall we were online

talking to some of the kids
from her kindergarten class.

We didn't think
anything about it.

Until we realized some creep was
posing as one of her classmates.

As a five-year-old.

It's almost incomprehensible.

My husband died trying

to do something for these
children who are victimized.

I'm just glad he
didn't die in vain.

So you and Jack
are really going away?

Yeah, we made plane
reservations for Hawaii.

Jack found this little place
on the beach with a view.

It's so romantic.

I am so jealous.

Hey, guys.

What is it?

Annabeth, there's
been an accident.

Jack was driving home.

He was on his way
to pick up Haley.

He was hit by a drunk driver.

They've airlifted him
to the hospital.

He's okay, though, right?

How badly was he hurt?

Tell me.

I'm sorry.

Please.

No.

Please.

Don't leave me.

Please, don't leave me.
