Do you understand what you're charged with?

- No.

You're charged with beating this boy,

hitting him with a gun,

and committing sexual assaults on him.

Do you understand that?

- Yeah, I understand, but I didn't do it.

I just want to make sure that you understood

what you're being charged with.

- That happened to him before he came home.

How do you know that happened to him?

- Well, it had to.

If he's been hit, beat, I didn't do it.

He says that you're the one who done it.

- I wasn't the one who done it.

I been framed, someone did.

Where did the gun come from?

- I don't know.

I never did know there was a gun there.

You didn't know there was a gun there?

- No.

- Do you have any money to hire an attorney?

- No.

- Well, I think I better contact one for you

then 'cause you're in trouble.

Apparently, you don't realize the seriousness of this then.

You know what the doctor

described the condition of this boy?

- No.

He said it was his opinion

that whoever beat this boy is a sadist.

- I don't know what that is either.

You don't understand?

And, you say this was reported within the last week?

- I think so.

I'm not exact about the date, but I think it was.

But I know this much,

I know that my sister is afraid to prosecute him,

but I'm not, and I'm the legal guardian.

She doesn't have a husband.

She's a widow, sir.

I went to talk to the little girl yesterday

and ask her what he did,

and she said he pulled her pants off

and got on top of me and tried to put it in me.

She's nine years old.

Now I intend, if you guys don't want to help me,

I intend to take care of him myself.

Now my brother in-law wanted me, he's got children himself,

he wanted me to take him down the river, and I said no.

I said we'll let the police do it.

That's a loser's game.

- No, it wouldn't be a loser's game.

Yes it would.

- They wouldn't even know what happened to the scum, see?

Because what I'd have done, I'd have parked my car

about three blocks away,

and I'd have drug him by his throat, see

but I said the cops get paid for this.

Now, if you don't want to take care of it, I will.

- I told these people all I know, and I don't appreciate it.

I haven't signed anything, I just got here.

You want me to talk to him?

10, 19, 23, 34.

- But, I'm not accustomed to being thrown in a paddy wagon

because I didn't want to leave my joint unlocked

'til the bartender got there.

I don't know, Simon.

I was thrown in the paddy wagon

bodily by a negro policeman and a white policeman.

Bodily thrown in a paddy wagon.

Now, would you come down here and help me, please?

Because I really don't appreciate it.

And, sit there for 20 minutes and freeze?

I'm not a criminal, and to being treated this way,

I'm not used to it, and it isn't necessary.

I am trying to get along with them, Jesus Christ.

What are you gonna do, man?

It's their way or none.

What would you say

is your interest in police work?

Why in the hell you want to be a police officer?

- I really couldn't say.

What have you thought about?

Why did you go apply?

What started you?

- I don't know.

I guess I've always sort of wanted to be one.

What for?

The glory of it, you mean?

- No, just because they're always helping people

and everything.

Helping others then?

- Yes.

Could you shoot someone if you had to?

- I really don't know.

Well, I suppose

you ought to think about that for a moment.

Talk about it just a little bit.

Under what conditions do you think

that you might be able to handle a gun and shoot somebody?

What did they get from you?

- Well, they got the billfold, they got a watch,

and my brown hat.

How much money did you have in your billfold?

- Well, I know there was a $10 bill in there,

and it wasn't much money,

but it was somebody.

Somebody.

Got 'em down?

- There's regular dollar bills in there.

There's three or four.

- Roll call, Fleming. - Here.

- Peacock? - Here.

- Derringer? - Here.

- 13, Bloomfield? - Here.

- Harlow? - Here.

- Pendleton? - Here.

- Hamilton? - Here.

- Edwards? - Here.

- Kerry? - Here.

- I've got a week and a half rent paid here,

and my rent wasn't due until next Saturday.

- Rent wasn't due 'till next Saturday.

- Well, the thing is you're gonna have to calm down

and quit raising Cain.

These people have a right to put you out

when you're raising Cain.

Work your problems out without getting that carried away

or that loud.

- Now see her brother and girlfriend took the baby away

during the big fight, they slipped the baby out,

and they took it away someplace,

and then she threw the knife at him.

There's a big hole up there in the wall

where she tried to hit him in the face with a knife

and it's stuck up in the wall,

and then when she got it again—

- That's not right, that's not right.

Now you shut up, I'm talking—

We're all just out here tryna help.

- Well I don't mean to get so excited,

but I have been excited.

- She did not throw no knife at me.

Well you let me tell him, I called.

- Okay, go ahead, you called him, you tell him—

- And then of course they got away with the baby,

take it some place for safe keeping.

And all broken up, it's a mess up there,

you can go up there and see it if you want to,

and then she kept jumping onto him,

she said, "He's drunk."

And calling him dirty names and everything,

jumping on him until he finally got up,

and he started yelling at her

that he thought the baby was still in the bedroom,

that he's not gonna take his baby outta there,

and then she run at him,

tried to stab him and he pushed her away,

she threw it, and it stuck in the wall

and there's a big hole up there.

Now let me ask you this ma'am,

do you want to prosecute these people?

- I don't want her back in this house,

if I have to prosecute, yes.

I won't pay my rent money back.

- Because she's dangerous!

She's dangerous. - Ma'am, have you

got some place to take that baby?

That's baby's got no business out here

in this kinda weather. - No, not until she

gives my money back, otherwise I'm gonna sit right here.

Now I'll let that baby back in there

and I'll even call her mother.

I'll even call her mother

and I'll call the— - She hasn't got no mother,

me and her been married for three years, ma'am,

and the baby belongs upstairs

because that's my apartment

and I paid a week and a half rent.

Well let me tell the rest about the knife episode.

- It wasn't no knife,

it was a lamp that fell against me there!

- She run at him with his knife

and screamed and hollered, if these people

'round here weren't afraid to talk,

probably they are afraid to talk,

but they all heard it,

she screamed and hollered

and chased him all over out here

and ran at him with a knife,

and he got her by the arm to try and make her

drop the knife, and they both fell down,

over there, right against that fence,

right over there were those leaves are,

and he finally got the knife

out of her hand,

and he grabbed up for their clothes,

and he threw the suitcase and busted it,

and grabbed the rest and run down the street.

- Well ma'am this was between them.

They're husband and wife,

this is between them. - You mean the knifin'

and all? - Yes ma'am,

if she doesn't want to prosecute,

and he says that she didn't throw a knife at him,

there's absolutely nothing we can do.

She didn't believe I'd called the police—

- Let's take the stuff upstairs.

She's sit right there and strip

that poor little old baby. - She has wet diapers on!

Listen to me just a minute lady,

do you think you folks

can go up there and work out your problems

without raising Cain. - Yeah but I don't think

that old woman's gonna— - Don't bother about that

now, if you're gonna go up there—

- Goes around dirty because it don't!

If you're gonna go up there

and raise Cain, there's no need

to go on up there in the first place.

She keeps it clean all the time,

I think she feeds it good,

but she stripped it, right out here

in this little area. - He had wet diapers on

and he's had diaper rash

since it's been born!

The officer asked you a question,

do y'all think y'all can go back up there

and act like two grown adults?

- Yeah, if she'll stay in her own apartment

and leave me alone.

- If she comes up there— - I think that

should be fair enough.

Well, you guys go on up there

and work out your problems without fighting.

Get in the car, I'll take you up there.

- Oh I'm not kiddin' anything,

didn't find everything in it.

- Why don't you come around the front

and have a seat?

- I don't know how in the world

I'm gonna get in my house.

He didn't threaten you,

or grab ahold of you, he just grabbed your purse?

- Grabbed my purse! - Grabbed your purse.

- No, he didn't try to do nothing to me.

And I got my identifying cards

and social security, all of them in there.

Spell your first name, please?

B-E-L-L.

B-E-L-L, Bell, Jessiebell.

- Bessebel? - Jessiebell,

B-E-L-L, Bell.

I'm sorry, I still don't understand.

- Jessie, J-E-S-S-I-E Jessie.

J-E-S-S-I-E-B-E-L-L,

Oh now we got it.

- I reckon I ever get my keys.

I don't know,

- I'm 68.

Are you unemployed ma'am?

Which hand did you have your purse in?

Right hand? - Right hand.

My social security card in there,

identifying card, ring of keys,

and $5 and something cents.

Well I'll walk over there,

maybe we can find your purse there,

imagine the money'd be gone.

- Thank you, thank you! - I'm afraid your money

is gone though!

- Oh, it's gone?

And they took my keys!

He took my key!

I figured that.

- He took my key to my house, my door key!

- Got your door key. - He got my door key,

he's got my pocketbook. - Billfold?

- Yes my billfold.

He found the pocketbook,

Dropped it right in front of that house

Now you wanna get up and act reasonable?

Now get up here.

- Well it seems like your radio got quiet.

Lot of calls this morning coming out,

just like crazy. - It's a sign,

it's like a full moon at night,

people get restless when it gets a little good weather,

that's all.

- Yeah, it's gettin' hot so they're staying in.

I know the was really popular for a while.

- What was happening was...

Some Italians jumped on the Cutter kid

this morning, and he in turn got come other Cutter boys,

they came back, they jumped on

a couple white guys,

and now the chain is coming out

where they're coming out of Little Italy

down here and coming over here,

families that come over here with guns

and everything, expecting one central to get out of school,

so they're the first two gangs,

and what's the other gang?

All go down there and have a little clash

after school. - We're gonna get

the Mill and get all our witness broke out again

over a car.

- Well I'll tell you one thing,

I'll be shooting

if they start throwing rocks and everything else.

I wish

they'd go ahead and put gas in the district cars

too like they'd talked about.

I think all your officers

could use a little common sense

if it's so touched up,

I don't think anybody would just jump out

and do it for no reason at all.

When you say anybody,

you gotta use. - Well I took my share

during the riot too—

- I never did use any gas. - Oh I did.

- That first day, I held mine

to right there at the last minute.

- I looked like a gas arsenal walking around.

- I was just getting ready to throw it

when they said, "Stop."

But I could see all the others

using their gas and I was afraid

that if everyone used their gas,

we wouldn't have any gas.

- I was at 13th and Oakland

at Front Line when they threw that bottle,

missed me by about the length of this car.

Man we all threw gas.

- I was at 12th and Oakland— - I was right there

across that line.

- They had me up in internal affairs

for getting a priest.

- Well yeah, but Charlie that one preacher

that come up there, did you see

what he was doing?

He tried to shake that patrolman!

That wasn't right!

Let me tell you ma'am,

if I had stole a car,

he hit this man's car,

and he hit another man's car,

and they chased him up here.

He jumped outta that

and came up here.

Now this man's got a new car

and the other car was a new car.

Do you have a gun?

Turn him over and clap him!

Alright get up, tough boy! - Look in his pocket!

Look down at his pocket - Yeah he's got a gun!

And you get bond,

his own friends put five bullets

in him and killed him, so you think about that.

- I'd do it if I was older!

My cousins did it, I can do it too.

- Who's your cousin? - Nina Kelley.

Runs in the clan, don't it?

- Make a brief story on your resisting arrest,

then refer to the meat of the thing,

otherwise the reason and so forth,

to report so and so,

and then they can go pull that report

and make reference from your resisting.

- In other words, you want juvenile apprehension,

larceny, auto theft, and recovered property in one?

- I'll go for that. - Alright.

- That alright with you, Sergeant?

- Whatever you wanna do.

- Well what I'm tryna do

is make it as easy on him and me as possible.

Last seen on the third floor

of the psychiatric proceeding center

If the suspect is located,

You're going home, you're alright!

- You're okay!

Where we going, North town?

- Newest unit please.

Yeah Wyatt, this is Charlie Range, 23, 25,

what did they ever do

with Howard Gilbert?

The one that was out in the hospital

on the stolen vehicle, two hit and runs?

They got him incarcerated, huh?

Why do you think they might do with him?

Well I would say so.

Well he wants to kill everybody,

so I just thought if he was walking

the streets, I'd be watching over my shoulder.

Okay, thanks a lot Sergeant!

Hey, hey!

C'mon wake up.

Wake up, c'mon!

Wake up.

Know how to help?

Try the finger!

23, 25.

Can I have a wagon, northeast corner of 10th and Sale?

23, 29.

Calling 23, 29?

Corner of 10th and Sale, meet the officer.

- What's the matter with him? - He's intoxicated!

Well don't you think that's what might be wrong?

Know him? - I think so.

- Yeah. - That's Geronimo.

Geronimo, that's Bagsby!

I thought it was Geronimo by his hair,

but Geronimo's lighter than that,

he's more Indian, that's Bagsby.

That's who that is.

- Bagsby? - Used to be one

of our town, I know you seen him,

curled drunk up and down the street,

just holding and falling down

on the sidewalk, I don't know

where he stays!

Oh yeah, he calls me Ms. Grand all the time.

Yeah that's Bagsby,

no telling who that is, that's who that is,

that's Bagsby, I went by his hair,

I said you know Geronimo,

the Indian looking man?

Now he ain't never stayed over here,

of course he could have, he stay

all over town.

Oh look, he's gonna get up!

- Just took him down— - Bagsby!

Bagsby?

It's too late to get up, he can't get up.

They ain't gonna lift him up either,

now I ain't say that.

I have seen them throw guys in the weeds,

they would be starving!

They wouldn't think they was drunk.

Why do some people live?

What is his aim in life,

bet he ain't got $0.25.

- I talked to Eustace a while ago

and they took out boy down to 1305,

but then said they're probably gonna turn him loose.

So I thought I'd tell you

so you could watch over the back of your shoulder

if this kid is walking the street.

- Now listen to me, they all ignored me anyway.

- Well he's still in the pokey right now,

Eustace is down there, I mean at the juvenile court.

- I just really wonder what in the Hell it takes.

- I don't know there, Charlie,

what it takes when you can steal a car,

hit a couple of parked cars,

no driver's license, then wanna fight somebody—

- Know that X I had this morning?

That kid was 15. - 15 years old.

- No driver's license. - So did you see

the Channel Nine probe?

- No. - Maybe you

were still working dog watch then,

but Channel Nine really kicked juvenile court

right in the teeth.

They said, "If this had been an adult,

"he's have been taken across the street

"and had to post bond on something like this,

"but yet a juvenile can pull this

"and walk off Scott free

"after making threats to kill a policeman.

"But he didn't care,

"he's gonna kill him a cop."

Well, of course the situation yesterday

you couldn't have hardly a done it.

- Didn't have any choice there.

Had too many people mad at this kid.

I shoulda let that one kid hit him

when he fell down those steps.

I bet he really busted him down.

- You could bust him there,

you busted him one other time there.

- I don't know hoe I got all the blood,

I guess I had my arm wrapped around him.

Well when I ran out there the first time,

I was to step in, I almost dumped that kid

right in the gut.

See, no I thought this other guy

was doing a pretty good job

so I just held it, and did he hit him

while I was holding him before you got there?

Yeah one time. - Man.

- But see, just as we came around there,

he hit him twice as I came around,

that's what I saw,

and I didn't know who was who there!

I'm glad that you knew that one party!

When you grabbed ahold of on kid,

then it's to Gilbert— - You think

I'd be the bad guy. - Just like that, boy!

- He was sure cussing them black people!

- If I was him, I wouldn't go back there to live.

He didn't make no bullets, "Yeah I've been involved

"in three or four shootings."

He said.

He'll be a Christmas present for somebody

some of these nights because he turns 17 the 14th.

Pick-up request

in regards to armed robbery,

pick up James Francis Egan, a white male,

DOB 10-24-41:5'10", 170 lbs.

Brown hair, blue eyes, medium build.

Suspect is armed with an unknown pistol

and will resist arrest.

- Don't pull my clothes off me!

Go ahead, resist!

Who the Hell do you think you are anyhow?

Punching one of our officers?

- Ready to calm down? - Okay?

- What's your name? - Can't talk?

- Where's the gun boy? - Why can't you talk?

Where's the bell boy?

- Please I'm tell you, I can't talk with you.

I said I'd tell you! - You don't fuck

with one of our boys,

do you understand now? - Yes sir!

Okay, I'm not tryna fight back!

I'm not tryna fight back!

Sir, I'm not tryna fight back,

don't choke me no more! - You're not being choked!

- Don't choke me no more.

You have to tell me 'cause— - Why don't you

just tell me the room, the price,

that's all it takes, baby.

- But you got naked,

pulled all his clothes off

and I wouldn't come in, yes you did too sir!

That was the stipulation,

my underwear was still on!

- That's why I'm in my clothes now

because I wouldn't go in there

and that's why he got mad, because I wouldn't,

I just stood to the door, I filled his cup

and I stood to the door.

Baby I've busted better looking girls

than you for a long time, I'll tell you that.

- Naturally he's got all the officer's say,

but that's the Gods' truth,

that's the God's truth.

I never, this is one thing they always told me,

never go in the room if he's naked,

and I never did go in the room!

I mean I just stood to the door

and I went and put on my clothes

and he kept tryna, "Well come in."

And he kept asking, "Well why don't you

"put yours on."

And he put his clothes off and got in the bed,

but I wouldn't go in there. - You wouldn't.

- No, so he grabbed me— - How long you

been hustling around this hotel?

How long?

- Well I haven't, I just got started,

I've been doing it for about two weeks.

Two weeks?

And you never turned tricks before two weeks ago?

- Two weeks ago, right here. - Generally it takes once,

and you get a good education and you learn.

- Yeah, that's what they tell me about this.

- That's right, so if you're gonna stay in this business,

and you're gonna do these kinda things for a living,

then you're gonna learn that when you get busted,

you just take it with the breaks.

We bust girls out here every night,

and every once in a while we have a problem,

but this is the first time,

so let's go to your room.

- I got a tear in my housecoat,

but that's what he gets for treating those girls.

What are you looking for?

- I don't know, I just like looking.

Is your name Mary Raglin?

What is your name? - Well, my name

is neither of that name, that belongs to another girl.

There ain't nothing there but my clothes,

that's all there is. - If that's all there is,

you've got nothing to worry about, right?

- Yeah, but I just don't like you

rambling through my clothes is all.

- You got any clothes put on, that it?

I suggest you start putting them on.

You're gonna have to hurry up.

- I'm hurrying. - Well we've been down here

almost an hour now, messing with you.

Well okay.

How many more girls do you know that hustle for a living?

- I don't know anybody,

I don't know nobody but her.

I don't sir!

I'm telling the truth,

and all the girls, I'll tell ya,

all the girls that want to meet me,

I always told the bellboys

to keep them away for me

because I couldn't afford them

going out telling nobody. - Judy?

I know Judy, do you know?

- Only reason I met her

because she lived over there, across the hall,

and she just moved away from here about a week ago

and I met her when I first came up here,

and I told her, she's the only girl I associate with here,

in fact I didn't go no place, - This hotel?

- I don't know, I guess she did, I don't know.

You don't mind if I take

Judy's picture, do you? - No don't take her picture

because that's the only picture I've got of her,

you don't suppose, that's my picture!

She gave it to me.

I met her. - This type of picture?

- No I meant that you're not supposed to take it, are you?

I'm not.

I just asked if you cared that I had it,

that's what I asked you. - No I want it.

Okay, I know Judy any.

- You probably do, because she's the one

that told me everything, different things.

She teaching you how to hustle?

- No she's not teaching me anything,

I just ask her about different little things

and everything— - How to suck—

- No, the main thing I always wanted to know about, I

wasn't learning how no hustle,

I just wanted to learn about jail

and everything, and she laugh at me

all the time because I— - What kind of?

To keep from taking disease and stuff like that?

What do you mean jellies?

- Jail, I said jail,

I want know about the jailhouse!

Oh, in case you get caught, I got you now.

- I just wanted to know, ask what did you do

what do they do for bust and things like that,

that's all— - Once you get caught

hustling, you wanna know what happens,

so you talked to an old prostitute

and you wanna find out about this.

- Now I'd like to know what I'm down here for!

Now you book me on something.

Hey I'll tell you,

you're down here for creating a public disturbance

for screaming, like you're doing right now.

- Oh that's the charge?

That's a good charge. - It is, now thank you,

would you step over there where you were?

No I'd like a better charge on that.

No hell no!

No hell no, I ain't going for this god damn charge,

and you. - How about drunk

in public also? - Well you put that on me too!

Okay, how old are you now?

- I'm 28 years old and that ain't no God damn good.

You picked me up— - What state

were you born in? - Missouri.

What state was you borned in?

I was born in Missouri,

but I'll never claim it again.

- I ain't got nothing on me, now search me.

- How tall are ya? - 5'6" and a half.

Blonde hair, blue eyes, and ain't got nothing on me

but a Gatling gun and machine gun.

- How much do you weigh now? - About 140 lbs.

I'd laugh to.

What do you think you weigh? - I don't know!

I want a lawyer, get this little old rookie!

He ain't nothing but a rookie, flat foot!

Your city, travel out of state.

C'mon, get him out of here!

C'mon, let's find him!

Okay.

Go on, find him!

C'mon let's find him, c'mon, get him out of here!

You do understand them?

Having these rights in mind,

at 41st and Mt. Gall, right in front of that house.

Did you hit Geneva?

Did you hit the other guy in the house?

Did you throw the bottle at him?

Whose gun is it?

Well whose gun is it?

Well it was there in the house,

Is it Jim Dandy's?

Well they said it was yours.

- Don't you nothing about it.

Well why am I gonna stay the night?

- That's your problem,

I didn't bring you in town.

You got money? - What is this police

department doing about this town?

- What are we doing about this town?

You see what we're doing about this town.

You're sitting around,

gonna act like you ain't doing anything,

that's what you doing.

I tell you, a soldier come in here

and report an incident, you act like you

don't wanna do anything about it,

you won't even send a man out to see about it

when a man's supposed to have a.38,

and you won't even see about it,

now what's a soldier doing fighting in Vietnam,

fighting for you, why don't you go in Vietnam

and fight for it?

- I was in Vietnam, I was in Korea

before you was ever out of diapers,

now don't pull that a soldier stuff on me,

you understand?

I spent six years in the Marine Corps

and I got more time in the pay line

then you've got.

Now shut up! - Well why don't you

go back over there?

You spend so much time,

why don't you go back over there?

It's not then it's now.

- I told you, when I get around to it,

I'm gonna take care of your problem.

Than man be long gone

by the time you get around to it.

- I told you when I get around to it

I'll take care of your problem.

Man be long gone

by the time you get around to it.

- When I get time to it,

I'll take care of your problem, son.

We've got other things to do,

we've got shootings to work on,

we've got DOAS— - What do you think

this is, man got a.38,

now you gonna sit up and talk about this

and that and that, and sitting at a desk,

and ain't doing nothing about it?

- You guys all see these pictures

of these escapees, we put it out yesterday?

Ones that wasn't here, anybody wanna see these pictures

on these handsome escapees,

they do not have them and they're supposed to be

in this area so you might pick them up

out there on the street.

When you get through role call if you wanna look at these

or pass 'em around while you're going to school.

Lieutenant Reed?

We've got one more area,

where the cars are working late,

- That's in the area of 37th and Truce,

at that clothing store.

There's been some young negro males

going there and harass the store people

and sort of tear up the clothing,

so we've got two juvenile officers there,

inside the building tonight,

in case anyone gets any calls in that area,

and we've also got two of the district cars

staying over. - Will they be in there

after the business has closed?

- No. - They won't be?

- Just until they close. - What time they close?

Five.

- And it'll only be a short time

that this watch will be effected.

Sergeant Evans, do you have anything?

Sergeant Pride's already gone,

Sergeant Grape? - I haven't got anything.

- What now? - Watch your language

when you're out there talking to people.

Don't use any innuendos about what type of person they are.

Boss, buddy, bud, hosier,

people take offense to that,

it's just as easy to call them young man or son.

- They take offense to that. - I know you brought

that up for my benefit Pete,

just like you did the speil

yesterday when my brother was here.

- It's now only you, Welly,

if you wanna take offense at it,

you go right ahead. - I didn't say anything,

I didn't intend for it to.

If you wanna air it out, let's air it out together.

- Okay see me after role call. - Advice is good—

- See me after role. - Careless in that,

I think one reason that we are careless

is that we get accustomed to talking

with each other in that manner,

and of course nobody takes offense

as long as we're friends,

but we get out there amongst strangers

and you use a term that he wants to take offense

about something, usually you've got him wrong

and he's looking for something else to put the blame on

for what he did, and so if you come up

with any term or terminology

that he can construe as being offensive,

even though 10 minutes ago somebody else might of said it

and it didn't mean a thing,

then he's gonna have a beef on you.

There's nobody

that can take offense at mister or sir or lady.

- I had 'em do it. - Well you won't ever get

in no trouble for it, you'll get in trouble

using hoss, I'll tell you that.

Let's stop it, no sense in it. - I'm just a plain

old country boy, and I don't mind

treating people right,

but at the same time, I'm not gonna do no bowing

and scraping. - Don't argue

about it here in role call.

So turn attention, right please, fall out.

Look out for a subject,

dressed in dark clothing with a handkerchief

around his face,

wanted in connection with a hold us,

39, 29 Bink Street.

- Met a guy from LA out on the plaza,

and he was telling me, "You really want a progressive

"police department, fair advancement, no favoritism

"towards anybody, that's the place to do it."

- No I want a good police department

that has a lot of gratuities

and quick advancement if you know

the right people.

- Yeah, but you never know the right people

- I don't think I'd ever wanna work out there,

it's too big, because you go on as a patrolman,

and 20 years later, you'd be a patrolman!

They got so many men out there!

Their cars aren't air conditioned,

they haven't got as nice of cars as we have!

They might start paying you a lot more,

but their taxes eat you up out there,

if you want more pay, go over there to Kansas,

they start there's off at $705!

- They told me, and the guy that told me

is always up on it—

- Who's that, the trustee

that sweeps up the jail up there?

- No this guy is involved in the politics

of the department a lot.

I mean very much. - Jail elevator operator.

- No. - Go ahead and tell me.

- Anyhow, he says when the next legislature meets,

that they're gonna try to get us

a starting salary of $800.

- They'll never do this. - Well I know,

but they need— - The city's griping

about starting us out at $507 a month.

- I'm making $583. - You're getting

independently wealthy, you really are!

Sure am.

- I'm knocking down a lot of money.

Man I'm making $583 with three years on,

if I went to LA, I could start at $715.

- And look how much it's gonna cost you to live.

- Not that much, my brother lives out there.

It's not that much more, man.

- Yeah, if you wanna live in a, answer your radio.

33, 22

- Listen officer, I gave the man $3,

my cab fare was $2,10.

Alright when he goes around to the store,

he wants me to pay him to get the change,

that isn't right!

Now you know that isn't right.

- Oh he didn't have change?

- And he went around,

if he'd have said to me, "Lady,

"I don't have the $0.02."

Well he's gonna make me pay him,

he goes around to the store,

and said I had to pay him

to go out to the store and make change,

now you know that isn't right.

- No, that's not right. - No it isn't right.

- You know the rules of the cab company?

Yeah I know the rules of the cab company—

Open your eyes a little bit more.

You been drinking?

- Man I hadn't have a drink for two days.

I started work at two o'clock this morning.

- Well I'm sure if you check

with your supervisor, you know that you can't make

her pay you.

The cab driver brought a party

to this location and he didn't have change,

so he went to get change

and he wants the woman to pay him

for him going to get change.

And he refuses to give the woman back the money.

Wagon over there 41?

- Not yet, maybe the supervisor

can straighten it out when she gets down here.

I can't understand how you figure you can charge her

for going to get change.

- He said, "You're going to pay me

"when I go around to the store."

I said I'm not gonna pay you,

I'm gonna call the officers

and say that man owes me $0.90 and that's the truth.

- You the road supervisor? - Yes sir.

- Oh well we got a little problem here,

apparently this lady got a cab here to 811 East 24th,

and the cab driver didn't have any change,

so when the cab arrived here, it was $1.10,

so then he goes to 27th and Truce,

I mean 27th here on Charlotte somewhere

to get some change and drives back around here

and wants her to pay that extra $0.40

for him having to have to go and get the change,

and she doesn't want to pay that,

which I can understand. - I'll try.

- $2.10, he owes me $0.90.

- I paid outta my pocket. - I have a dime to give you

back. - Just forget it ma'am,

we're sorry for the inconvenience.

- Well I'm very sorry it happened.

- Thank you very much.

- Thank you very much.

There's your money.

- Has she got a hospital, or a medicare, or whatever?

Be sure to take all that with you.

What hospital you want to go to?

You know what hospital?

Family doctor,

you know where he normally goes to?

- What staff he's on. - We'll go ahead and send

her to General, you can go and transfer.

- I think we can get her up on the stretcher,

if you wanna leave this sheet of hers.

- No one with us, crossed the street crying,

crossed just as slow, the cars was going that way

and they slowed up.

But the cars going that way,

they didn't slow up.

I never seen this baby before,

no sir, never.

I don't think she can talk.

She can talk, she can talk!

Isn't that something, isn't that awful?

Why don't you come with me?

Well see if we can find you mommy, okay?

- Isn't that a shame, poor little thing.

Isn't that a shame, she gonna cry.

Where does mama live?

Tell me where mam lives, I can take you home.

33, 44.

3, 44.

- 10-70 we got a missing juvenile.

Report a disturbance, 11, 14 East 12th,

enter rear, 33, 60.

Southbound car 106 and one half West 39th Street,

look for signs of a parked car.

- How about some candy?

How about some candy?

Want some candy?

Here you go.

You're not the first little girl

that mommy and daddy's been lost,

you wanna get in there and we'll play?

Yeah!

Now officer, why don't you jump over here

and sit down.

Uh-oh, I'll go get some toys.

- I brought some more candy. - Wait a minute!

What's all the crying about?

Eat your candy, eat your candy, there you go!

Is that good candy? - Oh, look here!

C'mon, let's play!

You wanna play?

You wanna play, she doesn't wanna play.

- You know a kid named George Reed

who lives over here on Mt. Gall?

- Who? - George Reed.

- George Reed? - He's a teenager.

- Teenager?

I don't know George.

- He doesn't hang around here?

Okay. - What's he like?

- I know a George Green. - He ran off from home.

- He did? - I just wanna know

that lived over here.

Where's her mom at? - Nut house.

- That's my sister. - That's your sister?

- She's one year.

He's your cousin ain't he? - He'll beat you up.

- I gotta get going.

We'll come by later. - Okay.

- You find out where they hit that other car,

you let me know.

Tell your brother to zip up his pants.

- Zip my pants, 12 o'clock.

- We'll see you later.

- Why he ain't go to school? - I ain't feel like school.

- Why you ain't go to school boy, huh?

Why you didn't go to school?

Why you didn't go to school?

You gonna turn out like Kenner?

You gonna make a thief like Kenner?

I'm out working hard, trying to take care of you,

cook your breakfast this morning

for you to go to school.

Why'd I bag your head.

- We didn't have no bag. - Get that bag,

that girl ain't lying it.

Make them get that bag! - Yeah that bag's somewhere,

where is it?

- You don't get that bag, I'm gonna tear you down.

- What bag? - Woman said you had a bag,

one of ya. - What were you doing

at this garage? - Was Kenner with y'all?

- No. - Did you

have a little duffel bag or something?

- He had his books. - Where are his books?

He didn't have those when he left.

He left them in the clubhouse.

- Oh where's your clubhouse?

That's what we wanna see.

- That house, that garage. - Alright, let's go

to your clubhouse, that your dog?

- C'mere fellas.

What chu got here?

Stand still.

You move. - I'm just in here

tryna buy a Coke man, ain't got nothing.

- You move, you know what happens.

- Man I ain't got nothing. - Get over there,

put your hands up on that counter, don't move.

- I came here by myself. - Stand there and be quiet.

- I came here to buy something by myself.

- Put your hands up there and be quiet.

- Why can't I come here by myself

and buy something? - Be quiet I told you.

- Nah, you gonna try to book me

for something, I came here by myself, ask these people.

Rowdy.

These three?

These two had guns,

this one ain't have nothing, says he wasn't with them.

Hey I came here by myself. - Fine, you just.

You have nothing to worry about.

Y'all tryna put me with something I didn't do.

I'm gonna go to jail for something—

I didn't say you was going to jail.

- Well you handcuffed me,

I must be going somewhere.

I must be going somewhere you handcuffed me.

I came here to see someone,

now I'm going to jail for something I didn't do.

- Have the Sergeant meet us over her at Matlock's.

- Hey owner, manager.

Say, you see me when I come in here,

you wanted my money if I'd have bought something.

I was looking and now I'm going to jail.

Motherfuckin' white man,

that's what you are you.

You see me come in here by myself.

I ain't got nothing, ain't you see that?

You know I come in here by myself,

why don't you tell these people that?

Didn't you see me come in here by myself?

I came in here and bought a pair of pants one time,

you said, "Come back."

That's what I did, I come back,

I try to be your customer, now you're gonna try

to drop a dime on me.

- I say looking forward to the next 20 years,

we can do better, and the next four years

is a critical time, give us the chance

and we will provide the new leadership

for peace and home and peace abroad.

If we are going also to have that peace at home

and aborad, it is necessary for us

to look at those problems at home,

not simply in the negative terms of what is wrong

but what we can do that will make America right again,

and as we look at America at home,

we see a choice between the two candidates,

one man who defends the attorney general,

who defends the record of the last four years

and this is my answer,

I say that when crime's been going up

nine times as fast as population,

I say to you my friends, when we find

as we look over America

that 43 % of all the American people

indicated in a poll that they're afraid to walk

on the streets of their cities at night,

then my friends, it's not time for more of the same,

it's not time for the same men,

it's time for a complete house cleaning

and new leadership from top to bottom

to reestablish

respect for law and order in this country.

35th and Woodlawn, 33, 44.

- Hey let me talk to you partner,

listen to me, what this lawyer says,

he can say anything he wants to,

but it doesn't mean anything until you have went to court

and a judge says you can have the child,

then you can have the child.

If he says she can have the child,

then she's got the child and she gets to keep it.

- Okay— - From what this lawyer

says, this judge may agree with him

you may not agree with him once they go to court.

- See this is the idea that I have now,

what he do and what she do

in a roundabout way is their business,

but I don't know, I have children here

and I don't want that that situation in my home.

- I came by here— - Try to take my baby!

- Now listen— - Did you have a baby

when you came here? - I had it yesterday,

I kept it all night, she didn't do nothing about it.

Okay I come by here this morning,

try to talk to her. - Wait a minute—

- No you butting in! - You said—

- That's what's wrong with people now,

people are butting in! - I wasn't here,

I got told about it,

but see how you say you're always gonna jump on people,

Raymond this is not good

because I've seen time—

- Now let me tell you,

if you want your child, you go down

and get ahold of your lawyer

and you start divorce proceedings

or something against your wife

and see if you can custody of this child.

- What's he look like? - Otherwise, if you

come back here, we're gonna have to put you people

in jail for disturbing the peace.

Now it's a civil case and we don't want in it,

and that's the best way to handle it,

contact your lawyer, and if you wanna file

against her, then file. - Well look, yesterday—

- You can talk to us all day partner,

but she's gonna keep that kid

as far as I'm concerned and there's nothing

you're gonna do about it.

- Okay, she's upstairs peeping out the window,

then this boy was upstairs too and I don't know him.

- Look partner, you can tell us about this

if you want to, but it's not gonna make any difference,

we can't do anything about it.

- But what is he doing upstairs with my wife?

- I don't know and I don't care!

And he wasn't upstairs with me

in the first place!

- This is between you and your wife.

- He was not upstairs with me. - And we can't do a thing

about it, if she wants to have 5,000 people

up there, she can have them as far as we're concerned,

and you can be just as mad as you want,

but it's not gonna do you any good.

- I'm not mad, I'm just concerned about my child.

- Okay, then go down and contact your lawyer

and file for divorce or something.

This is how it is right now,

if you don't go home and you don't go inside,

we're gonna put you both in jail.

You're gonna have to get you a lawyer

and then you're gonna have to file for divorce

if you wanna go to court on this kid,

we can't do a thing about it!

- I want him!

Look I don't mean no harm!

- Well I'm tryna explain it to you,

but you're not listening. - I'm listening, but look—

- Alright, well then go downtown

and get you a lawyer and file for divorce

if that's what you want,

that's the only way you're gonna—

- But I don't have the money! - We can't give you

this child. - Meantime, she won't let me

see my kid no more. - Looks like that's gonna be

the way it is. - And this has been three

months and I just had my kid

for the first time for three months.

- I'm sorry, there's not a thing I can do about it.

That's right, you have to support her.

But before you can get some government plans

about your child,

then you're gonna have to have a judge

say who does what.

- These people that live here,

we lived here before together.

- It don't make any difference partner.

- Why? - Get you a lawyer

and have her taken to court,

that's the only way you're gonna be able to settle it.

It's ridiculous, sure!

But there's nothing we can do about it.

- She doesn't even like kids so good,

when she gets mad at me,

she whoops my kid twice as hard.

Okay, then have the judge

settle the situation.

We can't settle it,

all we can do is put you

in jail - He upstairs with my wife.

Man I ain't never been in trouble in my life.

Well, don't start now.

- If you love your kids as much as I do—

I do partner,

but I'm not gonna go about it this way.

- I didn't not go one step there,

I just walked right past her with my child.

And she walks.

Yeah, white male, 23, about 170,

he's reported to be dangerous,

take 2535 with you when you make that check.
