"Where is it, in your girdle?"

all around her girdle.

You talked to her last night?
105

Seen her maybe a couple of times
since we busted up three months ago.
106
00:05:45,212 --> 00:05:47,692
We were going pretty hot, then
she went crazy with the junk.
107
00:05:47,981 --> 00:05:49,722
I had to cut her loose.
108
00:05:49,783 --> 00:05:51,922
Yeah, right,
because you're high on life.
109
00:05:52,185 --> 00:05:54,256
So I light up a bowl
on the weekends, big deal.
110
00:05:54,321 --> 00:05:56,392
She was fixing up maybe
four or five times a day.
111
00:05:56,990 --> 00:06:00,699
Well, in between getting stoned,
did she ever mention her family?
112
00:06:00,927 --> 00:06:03,066
No. Wasn't
a big item with her.
113
00:06:03,463 --> 00:06:05,704
The only one she ever talked
about was her kid brother, Matt.
114
00:06:05,765 --> 00:06:07,938
Did she ever say
where her family lived?
115
00:06:08,101 --> 00:06:10,274
She might've said something.
I wasn't paying attention.

into that blue blood of hers.
121
00:06:25,552 --> 00:06:28,692
You know, she was Ken Blanchard's daughter.
He ran for the Senate.
122
00:06:29,356 --> 00:06:32,496
Yeah, I remember him. Died in
a car crash a few years back.
123
00:06:32,559 --> 00:06:33,629
Yeah. He was DWI.
124
00:06:34,427 --> 00:06:36,668
Listen, no offense or anything,
125
00:06:36,730 --> 00:06:40,109
but shouldn't his daughter have been at
some four-star rehab in Connecticut?
126
00:06:40,166 --> 00:06:41,907
Katie was cut off
from her family.
127
00:06:42,869 --> 00:06:46,578
You know, this may not be the Queen Mary
of rehab, but it's not the Titanic either.

if you give it a chance.
131
00:06:52,245 --> 00:06:55,920
Katie was with the program
for about two months.
132
00:06:56,383 --> 00:06:58,124
Then about a month ago,
she walked away.
133
00:06:58,184 --> 00:06:59,458
Any idea why?
134
00:06:59,753 --> 00:07:03,030
Look, I got the feeling that rehab was
something she did to con her family.
135
00:07:03,490 --> 00:07:06,130
She'd stay clean for a week,
then disappear for a few days.
136
00:07:06,393 --> 00:07:08,202
Another week here
and then the same thing.
137
00:07:08,595 --> 00:07:10,006
So where does her family live?
138
00:07:11,665 --> 00:07:12,837
I'll get the address.
139
00:07:14,467 --> 00:07:15,775
She was found where?
140
00:07:16,937 --> 00:07:19,178
In a playground
on the Lower East Side.
141
00:07:19,239 --> 00:07:21,048
She died outside?
142
00:07:23,610 --> 00:07:25,055
I thought she was in rehab.
143
00:07:26,079 --> 00:07:28,616
Oh, well, the people there
told us she left a month ago.
144
00:07:29,316 --> 00:07:32,092
Oh, I'm not surprised.
145
00:07:33,153 --> 00:07:36,362
Every place I sent her, she'd stay
long enough to pass a blood test,
146
00:07:37,657 --> 00:07:41,730
then she'd ask me for money.
It all went to drugs.
147
00:07:43,029 --> 00:07:45,066
Finally, I had to say,
"No more."
148
00:07:46,466 --> 00:07:47,945
Did she come here?
149
00:07:48,001 --> 00:07:50,106
She knew better.
150
00:07:51,371 --> 00:07:53,351
My youngest, Carlie,
is still in high school.
151
00:07:53,873 --> 00:07:56,251
I refused to let her see
her sister like that.
152
00:08:00,580 --> 00:08:03,584
I know a mother shouldn't say
this, but Katie was my favorite.
153
00:08:04,317 --> 00:08:07,230
She was so beautiful.
She could've...
154
00:08:11,958 --> 00:08:13,369
She was also the most trouble.
155
00:08:15,895 --> 00:08:18,933
We're trying to determine who she
might've been with when she died.
156
00:08:19,265 --> 00:08:21,745
Were there any other relatives
she might've been in touch with?
157
00:08:21,801 --> 00:08:22,973
We heard she had a brother.
158
00:08:24,838 --> 00:08:28,411
Matthew. He was at Yale Law.
Second year.
159
00:08:29,876 --> 00:08:31,913
Maybe you should
speak to Jerome Kamen.

He was at college

to be made, you talk to me.
165

Actually, we're wondering if
you talked to Katie recently?
166
00:08:56,569 --> 00:08:59,709
On the phone, briefly, and
she stopped by a few times.
167
00:09:01,007 --> 00:09:02,418
You know where she was staying?
168
00:09:02,475 --> 00:09:03,852
At a rehab center.
169
00:09:05,245 --> 00:09:07,748
BRISCOE: Well, not for the last month.
We talked to them.
170
00:09:07,981 --> 00:09:10,154
She told me she was doing fine.
171
00:09:10,216 --> 00:09:12,162
What did she come
to see you about?
172
00:09:12,519 --> 00:09:15,227
Money. Her mother
had cut her off.
173
00:09:16,222 --> 00:09:18,031
She told me
not to give Katie a dime.
174
00:09:18,091 --> 00:09:19,365
Tough love.
175
00:09:19,759 --> 00:09:24,174
Yeah. To put it mildly. With
Meryl, it's her way or no way.
176
00:09:25,198 --> 00:09:27,405
But I've known the children
since they were babies.
177
00:09:27,934 --> 00:09:30,175
I thought about what their
father would've wanted me to do.
178
00:09:30,470 --> 00:09:32,108
So I gave Katie a few dollars.
179
00:09:32,939 --> 00:09:35,783
All she had to live on were
her social security checks.
180
00:09:36,042 --> 00:09:37,646
Well, she didn't look 65.
181
00:09:38,244 --> 00:09:40,952
The federal government considers
addiction a disability.
182
00:09:41,781 --> 00:09:43,317
They send her checks
twice a month.
183
00:09:43,383 --> 00:09:45,294
Even though
the family's worth millions?
184
00:09:46,553 --> 00:09:48,294
That money is held in trust.
185
00:09:49,889 --> 00:09:51,527
She had to survive somehow.
186
00:09:52,158 --> 00:09:54,399
Nice lady,
this Mrs. Blanchard.
187
00:09:54,461 --> 00:09:56,168
She was hosting
cocktail parties
188
00:09:56,229 --> 00:09:58,231
while her daughter was
living on the dole.
189
00:09:58,398 --> 00:10:01,538
Right, she should've let the kid shoot
the family fortune into her arm.
190
00:10:01,901 --> 00:10:03,812
Oh, you'd throw your
daughter out on the street?
191
00:10:04,037 --> 00:10:06,779
My daughter could go through my
fortune in about a day and a half.
192
00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:08,945
Yeah, but what if you had
Blanchard's money?
193
00:10:09,409 --> 00:10:11,855
Hey, maybe if somebody had kicked
me out when I was drinking,
194
00:10:11,911 --> 00:10:14,118
I wouldn't have wasted
20 years inside a bottle.
195
00:10:15,281 --> 00:10:16,419
Hell of a gamble.
196
00:10:17,650 --> 00:10:21,188
Anyway, Kamen said she got
checks every two weeks, right?
197
00:10:21,755 --> 00:10:23,701
Social security must've known
where to send them.
198
00:10:24,724 --> 00:10:27,705
Under the Social Security Act
of 1972,
199
00:10:27,961 --> 00:10:30,635
addicts are entitled
to $750 a month.
200
00:10:30,697 --> 00:10:31,732
What?
201
00:10:31,798 --> 00:10:33,505
Somebody actually thinks
this is a good idea?
202
00:10:33,700 --> 00:10:35,407
You'd rather they mug you
for their money?
203
00:10:35,869 --> 00:10:38,076
Look, we don't simply
hand money to the addict.
204
00:10:38,138 --> 00:10:41,915
We send a check to a responsible
payee, usually a parent.
205
00:10:42,242 --> 00:10:44,882
The payee gives funds
to the recipient as needed.
206
00:10:45,178 --> 00:10:47,317
So who was
Katie Blanchard's payee?
207
00:10:54,020 --> 00:10:55,590
Herbert James Fowler.
208
00:10:56,656 --> 00:10:59,535
He runs the rehabilitation center
where Miss Blanchard was staying.
209
00:10:59,592 --> 00:11:01,230
That's where we
sent the checks.
210
00:11:01,728 --> 00:11:03,264
When was the last check cashed?
211
00:11:04,697 --> 00:11:07,177
Last week,
by Mr. Fowler.
212
00:11:08,368 --> 00:11:10,712
(ON SPEAKER) I told you, Katie
left the center four weeks ago.
213
00:11:11,538 --> 00:11:13,347
Well, according to Uncle Sam,
214
00:11:14,807 --> 00:11:16,809
you were still
cashing her checks.
215
00:11:17,277 --> 00:11:20,190
Mr. Fowler had the authority
to cash those checks.
216
00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:21,918
If she's there he does.
217
00:11:23,349 --> 00:11:25,590
Maybe she never
left the rehab, huh, Herb?
218
00:11:26,653 --> 00:11:27,825
Maybe she OD'd there.
219
00:11:27,887 --> 00:11:29,298
Look, that didn't happen.
220
00:11:30,323 --> 00:11:31,597
(SIGHS)
221
00:11:31,658 --> 00:11:36,232
Look. She was a walking disaster.
She was never gonna get cured.
222
00:11:36,296 --> 00:11:38,902
Rehab was
a revolving door for her.
223
00:11:39,866 --> 00:11:43,006
I thought she'd come back sooner or later.
I was holding her money.
224
00:11:43,269 --> 00:11:46,978
Where? In a bank?
Or under your mattress?
225
00:11:48,241 --> 00:11:50,585
It's in the general
operating fund.
226
00:11:52,011 --> 00:11:54,821
Really? Okay.
227
00:11:55,648 --> 00:11:57,889
I'm sure the Feds can
help me track it down.
228
00:11:57,951 --> 00:12:00,591
We don't really have to
get them involved, do we?
229
00:12:01,087 --> 00:12:02,657
Why not?
If he's got nothing to hide.
230
00:12:02,722 --> 00:12:04,360
I swear to God,
she wasn't there.
231
00:12:05,425 --> 00:12:06,961
What's the problem then?
232
00:12:21,040 --> 00:12:23,850
She wasn't the only junkie
you were ripping off, was she?
233
00:12:26,913 --> 00:12:29,052
Okay. Look...
234
00:12:29,582 --> 00:12:31,755
If he's ready to admit
to fraud, you have to believe
235
00:12:31,818 --> 00:12:33,627
he's telling the truth
about not seeing her.
236
00:12:33,686 --> 00:12:35,825
If nothing else,
you uncovered his scam.
237
00:12:35,888 --> 00:12:38,664
Great. I'll tell Mrs. Blanchard
her daughter didn't die in vain.
238
00:12:38,725 --> 00:12:39,726
(BANGING ON DOOR)
239
00:12:40,426 --> 00:12:43,430
Lieutenant, I've got the autopsy
report on Kathleen Blanchard.
240
00:12:43,496 --> 00:12:44,497
Oh, thank you.
241
00:12:46,933 --> 00:12:51,814
Inconclusive for hypothermia. She died
of an overdose of high potency heroin.
242
00:12:51,871 --> 00:12:53,748
She must've had
some going-away party.
243
00:12:53,806 --> 00:12:55,581
The party was
catered in Chinatown.
244
00:12:55,642 --> 00:12:58,714
According to this, her last
supper was duck and hoisin sauce.
245
00:12:58,945 --> 00:13:02,449
Peking duck. Thirty bucks a pop.
Some taste, huh?
246
00:13:02,715 --> 00:13:04,353
Life wasn't all fun and games.
247
00:13:04,918 --> 00:13:07,956
The ME found some hemorrhaging
on the walls of her uterus.
248
00:13:08,321 --> 00:13:12,360
Meaning that she had an abortion or a
miscarriage in the past two weeks.
249
00:13:15,128 --> 00:13:16,801
Katie left four weeks ago.
250
00:13:17,096 --> 00:13:18,837
You marked it in your calendar?
251
00:13:18,898 --> 00:13:21,208
My second wedding anniversary.
252
00:13:21,267 --> 00:13:23,713
My husband, Raoul,
he's doing a bullet at Rikers.
253
00:13:23,936 --> 00:13:25,677
Anyway, I haven't
seen Katie since.
254
00:13:25,738 --> 00:13:28,844
Well, maybe she paid a visit during your lunch break.
You got a sign-in book?
255
00:13:28,908 --> 00:13:32,185
This look like Betty Ford?
People don't sign in.
256
00:13:32,612 --> 00:13:35,115
Even if she did come back,
it makes a difference?
257
00:13:35,181 --> 00:13:39,596
We figure she got pregnant here and maybe
one of your residents is the proud papa.
258
00:13:39,652 --> 00:13:40,995
And she might've
gotten in touch with him.
259
00:13:41,054 --> 00:13:42,397
One of these losers?
260
00:13:42,689 --> 00:13:46,364
She'd have to be pretty hard up. Besides,
Katie had some guy on the outside.
261
00:13:46,459 --> 00:13:47,802
She ever tell you his name?
262
00:13:48,995 --> 00:13:50,531
Some short name.
263
00:13:51,631 --> 00:13:53,338
Rick.
Erik?
264
00:13:54,567 --> 00:13:57,741
Could be. I figure
that's where she went.
265
00:13:58,104 --> 00:14:01,415
I mean, she took one of those home pregnancy tests.
The stick turned blue.
266
00:14:01,808 --> 00:14:04,118
She flipped out.
The next day, she split.
267
00:14:04,944 --> 00:14:07,117
Come on, man. How many times
we gotta go through this?
268
00:14:07,347 --> 00:14:08,826
Until you get it right.
269
00:14:09,148 --> 00:14:11,822
See, the way we hear it, when
Katie came back from rehab,
270
00:14:11,884 --> 00:14:15,764
she had a little surprise for you. You
were gonna get it in about nine months.
271
00:14:17,156 --> 00:14:19,329
No way. Not me.
272
00:14:19,392 --> 00:14:21,804
No way?
She came crying to you.
273
00:14:21,861 --> 00:14:23,340
What did she want?
Money for an abortion?
274
00:14:23,396 --> 00:14:24,636
I didn't knock her up.
275
00:14:25,365 --> 00:14:26,935
I haven't been with her
for three months.
276
00:14:27,700 --> 00:14:31,876
Look, why don't you guys just go take a
bribe or whatever it is you usually do?
277
00:14:32,739 --> 00:14:34,741
You know, you look like
you could use a few pounds.
278
00:14:34,907 --> 00:14:36,045
Why don't we go in the kitchen,
279
00:14:36,109 --> 00:14:38,248
see if there's any milk
and cookies in there, huh?
280
00:14:38,911 --> 00:14:41,221
Okay, Erik,
this is how it works.
281
00:14:41,547 --> 00:14:45,518
We're gonna check her ID.
If she is one day shy of 17,
282
00:14:45,618 --> 00:14:48,827
we toss this whole place, then maybe
we find a controlled substance.
283
00:14:48,888 --> 00:14:51,027
You want me to go on?
Not if you don't have to.
284
00:14:51,657 --> 00:14:52,658
UP '10 you.
285
00:14:55,728 --> 00:14:58,470
Katie gave me the whole song and dance.
She didn't even look pregnant.
286
00:14:58,531 --> 00:15:00,442
She wants me to pay to get rid of it.
I blew her off.
287
00:15:00,933 --> 00:15:02,571
The kid probably
wasn't even mine.
288
00:15:02,635 --> 00:15:03,909
And since then?
289
00:15:08,141 --> 00:15:11,520
All right, I wonder
what's in this box?
290
00:15:11,577 --> 00:15:12,647
All right. All right.
291
00:15:13,913 --> 00:15:17,224
She called about a week ago. She was
hurting real bad. She needed a score.
292
00:15:17,283 --> 00:15:18,523
And you're the man, right?
293
00:15:18,584 --> 00:15:19,892
I don't deal.
294
00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:22,693
I just know where to shop.
I brought it to her.
295
00:15:22,755 --> 00:15:23,790
Where?
296
00:15:23,856 --> 00:15:25,597
She was staying
up on West 81st.
297
00:15:25,658 --> 00:15:27,831
She didn't want me to come upstairs.
She was with some guy.
298
00:15:27,894 --> 00:15:31,364
So I met her on the corner on Broadway.
And that's the last time I saw her.

Now these junkies
have trust funds.

Hey, 10 years ago they were
tooting coke through $100 bills.
304
00:15:51,717 --> 00:15:53,754
Maybe they've heard needles
are chic this year.

Which side of the street
you want?
306
00:15:55,888 --> 00:15:57,458
Maybe there's a faster way.
307
00:15:57,623 --> 00:15:59,762
She had Peking duck
before she died.
308
00:16:00,893 --> 00:16:05,308
Okay, chicken and cashew nut,
sweet sour pork. It's $10.95.

00:16:05,565 --> 00:16:06,942
About 30 minutes.
310
00:16:07,867 --> 00:16:11,440
Come on, Mr. Woo, three days ago?
She ordered Peking duck?

you have the wrong building.

I'm sure we don't.

the right unit number?

00:17:20,406 --> 00:17:22,545
Their business manager,
Mr. Kamen.
336
00:17:22,942 --> 00:17:24,114
Jerome Kamen?
337
00:17:24,243 --> 00:17:26,348
She's been staying here
with his permission.
338
00:17:28,180 --> 00:17:31,855
Understand my situation. It
was the Cassini's apartment.
339
00:17:32,318 --> 00:17:35,424
If they found out...
Well, you can imagine.
340
00:17:35,721 --> 00:17:38,133
Right now my imagination's
working overtime.
341
00:17:38,524 --> 00:17:39,525
I'm sure it is.
342
00:17:40,326 --> 00:17:43,273
Katie came to me.
She said she was pregnant.
343
00:17:44,530 --> 00:17:46,806
She didn't want to give birth
to a drug-addicted baby.
344
00:17:47,066 --> 00:17:50,343
I gave her some money and
told her to go to a clinic.
345
00:17:50,636 --> 00:17:54,311
And the keys to the Cassini place, you
just throw those in to cheer her up?
346
00:17:54,373 --> 00:17:57,217
She wouldn't go back to rehab. Her
mother didn't want her in the house.
347
00:17:57,743 --> 00:17:59,620
I wasn't gonna let her
sleep on the street.
348
00:18:00,479 --> 00:18:02,481
Well, that's
all very commendable,
349
00:18:02,682 --> 00:18:05,788
except for the lies and the
clean-up job at the apartment.
350
00:18:06,752 --> 00:18:10,962
All I did was pack up her things
after I found out she was dead.
351
00:18:11,157 --> 00:18:12,636
I have her suitcase right here.
352
00:18:12,892 --> 00:18:15,998
As far as we're concerned, that
apartment is the scene of the crime.
353
00:18:16,162 --> 00:18:18,768
So, you don't mind if we conduct
a little search there, do you?
354
00:18:18,998 --> 00:18:23,743
I have nothing to hide. I was just doing
what I thought was best for Katie.
355
00:18:24,637 --> 00:18:28,016
Somebody forgot to tell this girl
disability money's for food.
356
00:18:28,241 --> 00:18:33,122
Gold necklace. Louis Vuitton
wallet including six $100 bills.
357
00:18:33,913 --> 00:18:37,588
None of which sticks around if she was
partying with her junkie friends.
358
00:18:37,783 --> 00:18:40,354
You know, CSU went through all
of this stuff and the apartment.
359
00:18:40,753 --> 00:18:42,198
Kamen's prints
are on everything.
360
00:18:42,255 --> 00:18:44,929
Well, he packed her suitcase and
he was showing the apartment.
361
00:18:44,991 --> 00:18:46,937
Which means he opens the door
and says "Look around."
362
00:18:46,993 --> 00:18:49,837
But his prints were in the bathroom,
they were all over the furniture.
363
00:18:49,896 --> 00:18:52,604
Look, he shacks her up in this
place and then he lies about it.
364
00:18:52,865 --> 00:18:55,243
I, for one, don't believe
in his Father Flanagan act.
365
00:18:55,668 --> 00:18:57,477
I, for one, am jealous.
366
00:18:58,004 --> 00:19:01,417
Divorced, middle-aged guy,
young single girl...
367
00:19:01,474 --> 00:19:03,818
None of which ties him to her death.
Yeah.
368
00:19:03,876 --> 00:19:08,120
But say Kamen gets an itch. He pops
over on Katie but Katie's OD'd.
369
00:19:08,214 --> 00:19:10,490
If he was afraid of her
being found there alive,
370
00:19:10,549 --> 00:19:12,358
now he's got a real problem.
371
00:19:12,418 --> 00:19:14,091
He owns a car.
372
00:19:14,620 --> 00:19:16,224
Maybe he took her out
through the garage.
373
00:19:16,522 --> 00:19:19,264
Well, even if she left
anything behind in the car,
374
00:19:19,325 --> 00:19:21,703
we don't have enough
for a warrant to search it.
375
00:19:23,763 --> 00:19:25,800
Arrest him for hindering.
376
00:19:25,865 --> 00:19:28,471
Still doesn't get us
a search warrant.
377
00:19:29,268 --> 00:19:31,305

in his car.

Maybe he telecommutes.

You mind stepping out
of the car, Mr. Kamen?

00:19:59,065 --> 00:20:01,375
No. You mind telling me
what this is all about?
385
00:20:01,434 --> 00:20:03,675
You're under arrest
for hindering prosecution.
386

You're kidding.
Yeah. It's all a big joke.

What about my car?
Oh, don't worry.

Your car will be secured and
inventoried for your protection.

I've told you. I was home all night.
I had quarterly reports to finish.

on up the food chain.

I'm running out of stalls. And I don't
think he's up for a game of Scrabble.

Thanks.
398
00:20:45,911 --> 00:20:50,382
That was Logan. The labs came back.
They found her vomit in his car,
399
00:20:50,449 --> 00:20:52,986
trace amounts of blood
matched her blood type.
400
00:20:53,052 --> 00:20:55,760
Which means she was still alive when
he took her out of the apartment.
401
00:20:55,821 --> 00:21:00,065
And he let her die in a playground instead
of taking her to an emergency room.
402
00:21:00,159 --> 00:21:03,333
Sure. No doctors, no police,
no embarrassing questions.
403
00:21:03,496 --> 00:21:05,442
We don't know
what his intent was.
404
00:21:05,498 --> 00:21:07,739
He could've been taking her
to the hospital when she died.
405
00:21:08,067 --> 00:21:10,104
For now, we'll charge him
with man one.

on motive, we'll bump it up later.

to apologize, Lieutenant?

I do my repenting on Sunday.

Right now I'm here
to re-arrest your client.
411
00:21:27,386 --> 00:21:30,765
Jerome Kamen, you're under arrest for
the murder of Kathleen Blanchard.

00:21:30,823 --> 00:21:32,496
You have the right
to remain silent.
413

Anything you say and do can
and will be used against...

"hindering prosecution

417
00:21:45,438 --> 00:21:46,849
Give me a plea, Mr. Kamen.
418
00:21:46,906 --> 00:21:48,249
Not guilty, Your Honor.
419
00:21:48,474 --> 00:21:52,081
Your Honor, even if you accept the
People's theory in this case,
420
00:21:52,144 --> 00:21:54,784
nothing that Mr. Kamen allegedly
did supports this charge.
421
00:21:54,847 --> 00:21:56,849
Mr. Kamen
transported the victim
422
00:21:56,916 --> 00:21:59,260
and left her behind a dumpster
in the middle of the night.
423

You can both save it for the trial judge.
Can we move on to bail, please?

POLLARD:
Oh, that's ridiculous.
426
00:22:05,825 --> 00:22:09,500
My client has two children to support, not
including an ex-wife and her attorney.
427
00:22:09,562 --> 00:22:12,372
He has less than $60,000
in his savings account.
428
00:22:12,431 --> 00:22:16,072
We should all be so fortunate.
$150,000 cash or bond.
429
00:22:17,036 --> 00:22:19,141
That's a complete lie.
She didn't die in my car.
430
00:22:19,205 --> 00:22:21,151
She was never even in my car.
Settle down...
431
00:22:21,207 --> 00:22:22,652
I can't listen to this...
Jerry.
432
00:22:22,708 --> 00:22:25,780
If she wasn't in your car,
Mr. Kamen, you'd better explain
433
00:22:25,845 --> 00:22:27,791
how her vomit
got there without her.
434
00:22:27,847 --> 00:22:31,124
Well, we will deal with that, McCoy.
But first, I'm curious about motive
435
00:22:31,183 --> 00:22:33,356
for all these terrible things
you say my client did.
436
00:22:33,586 --> 00:22:35,463
He was having an affair
with a client's daughter.
437
00:22:35,521 --> 00:22:38,934
He was afraid of being compromised.
She overdosed. He panicked.
438
00:22:38,991 --> 00:22:41,597
That's insane! I kept that
girl out of the gutter...
439
00:22:41,660 --> 00:22:42,661
Jerry!
440
00:22:43,696 --> 00:22:45,607
And no doubt you have
evidence of this affair.
441
00:22:45,664 --> 00:22:46,734
We'll find the evidence.
442
00:22:46,799 --> 00:22:50,008
He stepped in it up to his shorts,
I'm sure he left footprints.
443
00:22:50,069 --> 00:22:52,640
So this vomit, that's about the
extent of your case, is that right?
444
00:22:53,372 --> 00:22:54,908
Well, then I have
bad news for you.
445
00:22:56,108 --> 00:22:58,645
Omnibus motion to suppress
the evidence from the car
446
00:22:59,111 --> 00:23:02,524
and to dismiss the charges.
Jerry, let's go.
447
00:23:08,320 --> 00:23:11,631
The police knew that they had no grounds
for a warrant to search his car.
448
00:23:11,924 --> 00:23:14,837
So they decided to wait until
they could ambush him in his car
449
00:23:14,894 --> 00:23:17,807
and they could conduct what they
called this "inventory-search."
450
00:23:17,897 --> 00:23:19,604
It's laughable, Your Honor.
451
00:23:19,932 --> 00:23:21,343
Not to the Court of Appeals.
452
00:23:22,034 --> 00:23:24,981
People v. Galak. The need
to conduct an inventory
453
00:23:25,037 --> 00:23:28,018
of a prisoner's personal effects
provides its own rationale
454
00:23:28,073 --> 00:23:29,177
for searching those effects.
455
00:23:29,241 --> 00:23:31,187
POLLARD: Well, they vacuumed
the carpet, Your Honor.
456
00:23:31,243 --> 00:23:33,689
What were they doing
an inventory of? Dust mites?
457
00:23:34,647 --> 00:23:37,093
And the officers had the
arrest warrant for 16 hours
458
00:23:37,149 --> 00:23:38,924
before they decided to
pick up my client.
459
00:23:39,418 --> 00:23:41,728
How about it, Mr. McCoy?
Why the delay?
460
00:23:42,321 --> 00:23:46,599
A defendant has no constitutional or
statutory right to a speedy arrest.
461
00:23:47,526 --> 00:23:49,301
I can cite People v. Bryant
on that one.
462
00:23:49,728 --> 00:23:52,072
A trial term opinion? Please.
463
00:23:52,431 --> 00:23:54,604
Even Mr. Magoo
could see right through this.
464
00:23:55,067 --> 00:23:57,479
Motion to suppress is granted.
Thank you, Your Honor.
465
00:23:57,837 --> 00:23:59,680
And since the evidence
taken from the car
466
00:23:59,738 --> 00:24:01,581
is the sole foundation
for the manslaughter charge...
467
00:24:01,640 --> 00:24:04,120
Got it. The motion to
dismiss is also granted.
468
00:24:04,777 --> 00:24:08,919
Mr. McCoy, the next time your police
officers try to sneak one past this court,
469
00:24:08,981 --> 00:24:10,460
I'm gonna cite them
for contempt.
470
00:24:12,851 --> 00:24:15,832
There's no excuse, lieutenant.
It was a lousy search.
471
00:24:17,122 --> 00:24:20,160
And you tell your detectives that
the Bill of Rights isn't a doormat.
472
00:24:20,292 --> 00:24:21,566
It was my call.
473
00:24:21,727 --> 00:24:25,402
Judge Rodriguez gets
birthday cards from the ACLU.
474
00:24:25,464 --> 00:24:27,501
Any other judge
would've allowed the search.
475
00:24:27,600 --> 00:24:28,977
Oh, really?
In your opinion.
476
00:24:29,768 --> 00:24:31,679
You arrest a man like
Jerome Kamen,
477
00:24:31,837 --> 00:24:35,410
you make damn sure that your
ducks are standing beak to tail.
478
00:24:35,474 --> 00:24:38,887
But if it's somebody uptown, we have
your permission to cut corners?
479
00:24:39,144 --> 00:24:40,680
I'll keep that in mind.
480
00:24:45,050 --> 00:24:46,893
A man in Kamen's position,
481
00:24:48,654 --> 00:24:52,431
why would he risk compromising himself
with this girl? It doesn't make sense.
482
00:24:52,725 --> 00:24:54,500
He put her up
in a client's apartment.
483
00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:56,198
ADAM: Yeah.
An act of kindness.
484
00:24:56,729 --> 00:24:58,436
Hardly grounds to indict.
485
00:24:58,664 --> 00:25:01,975
I don't think his conscience was clear
when he left her behind a dumpster.
486
00:25:04,470 --> 00:25:05,540
He's hiding something.
487
00:25:05,604 --> 00:25:06,776
Then bring me somebody.
488
00:25:06,839 --> 00:25:10,048
Anybody who'll testify he was
having an affair with this girl.
489
00:25:10,109 --> 00:25:12,282
Apparently she was
still close to her brother.
490
00:25:13,545 --> 00:25:14,580
Okay.
491
00:25:15,614 --> 00:25:19,824
Mr. Kamen used to bounce us on his knee.
He's been like a father to us.
492
00:25:19,885 --> 00:25:23,025
I can't imagine he would
take advantage of Katie.
493
00:25:23,255 --> 00:25:25,132
Well, we found evidence
she was in his car.
494
00:25:25,190 --> 00:25:28,330
Yeah. But the judge threw that out, right?
So that doesn't prove anything.
495
00:25:28,727 --> 00:25:31,105
You're second year law? You
should know better than that.
496
00:25:31,263 --> 00:25:32,674
I know Jerome Kamen.

00:25:35,334 --> 00:25:38,872
After my dad died, my mother
and he became very close.
499
00:25:38,937 --> 00:25:43,545
I thought it was leading somewhere.
But Jerry was too loyal to my father.
500
00:25:43,942 --> 00:25:44,943
He backed off.
501
00:25:45,511 --> 00:25:47,718
Did you talk to your sister
in the weeks before she died?
502
00:25:48,347 --> 00:25:51,521
Yes. She would call once a
week to make sure I was okay.
503
00:25:52,151 --> 00:25:56,827
She thought I was some sort of role model
because I escaped the family curse.
504
00:25:57,056 --> 00:25:58,126
How do you mean?
505
00:26:00,326 --> 00:26:04,399
We come from a whole line of alcoholics
who think they're social drinkers.
506
00:26:04,463 --> 00:26:05,942
Dad. Mom.
507
00:26:07,266 --> 00:26:11,373
Well, maybe if Katie'd stuck to alcohol,
she might've remained part of the family.
508
00:26:11,904 --> 00:26:15,044
Was there anyone else she might've
confided in, any friends?
509
00:26:15,207 --> 00:26:18,211
Friends? You mean like people
she shared a needle with?
510
00:26:18,277 --> 00:26:21,087
Well, her boyfriend told the police
you might've met some of them.
511
00:26:21,146 --> 00:26:23,752
The last time I saw her,
she drove up to Yale
512
00:26:23,816 --> 00:26:26,353
with an actress, Teena Varga.
513
00:26:26,852 --> 00:26:29,458
She'd been an extra
in some Spike Lee movie.
514
00:26:30,622 --> 00:26:33,102
I just got back in town
a couple days ago.
515
00:26:34,159 --> 00:26:36,571
You sure you're talking
about Katie Blanchard?
516
00:26:37,563 --> 00:26:40,669
It's her. You didn't
even know she overdosed?
517
00:26:41,667 --> 00:26:44,876
I been on a set in the middle of
the Nevada Desert for a week.
518
00:26:45,471 --> 00:26:48,543
It's not like I got The Post
delivered every morning.
519
00:26:50,509 --> 00:26:51,510
Who was with her?
520
00:26:52,911 --> 00:26:54,720
What makes you think
anyone was?
521
00:26:54,780 --> 00:26:56,817
She was a total klutz
with needles.
522
00:26:57,382 --> 00:27:01,990
She never got the hang of it. She
always needed somebody to fix her up.
523
00:27:02,921 --> 00:27:04,764
You have any idea
who that might've been?
524
00:27:04,823 --> 00:27:06,063
Well, it wasn't me.
525
00:27:06,558 --> 00:27:09,437
All somebody had to do
was take her to a hospital.
526
00:27:09,862 --> 00:27:11,808
I'm sure she would've
been okay.
527
00:27:13,132 --> 00:27:16,375
After she left the rehab,
she was staying on West 81st.
528
00:27:16,735 --> 00:27:20,774
Yeah. A nice place.
A real change of pace for her.
529
00:27:21,140 --> 00:27:22,983
She never had money before.
530
00:27:23,041 --> 00:27:24,486
But all of a sudden she did?
531
00:27:24,543 --> 00:27:25,988
No. I mean
she didn't steal it.
532
00:27:27,045 --> 00:27:28,922
She told me
she had a rich uncle.
533
00:27:29,348 --> 00:27:31,328
Would that be Jerome Kamen?
534
00:27:31,383 --> 00:27:32,418
Could be.
535
00:27:32,785 --> 00:27:34,389
She used to call him Jerry.
536
00:27:35,554 --> 00:27:38,501
She used to go by his office every
couple of days for a refill.
537
00:27:38,657 --> 00:27:40,603
Two or three grand each time.
538
00:27:41,427 --> 00:27:43,100
What did you think
was going on between them?
539
00:27:43,595 --> 00:27:45,233
She didn't want to
talk about it.
540
00:27:45,964 --> 00:27:49,411
But it's not what you think.
That she would've told me.
541
00:27:51,036 --> 00:27:54,381
According to her friends, Katie
bought enough heroin in four weeks
542
00:27:54,440 --> 00:27:55,942
to tranquilize
a herd of elephants.
543
00:27:56,742 --> 00:28:00,690
Must have been a popular girl.
Kamen was paying for it?
544
00:28:01,080 --> 00:28:04,186
He gave her something like
$40,000 during the last month.
545
00:28:04,283 --> 00:28:06,820
Her friend doesn't think it was
because they were having an affair.
546
00:28:06,885 --> 00:28:08,592
Didn't he cry poverty
at his arraignment?
547
00:28:08,654 --> 00:28:10,998
He said he was in hock
to his ex-wife.
548
00:28:12,191 --> 00:28:13,761
If she has
a good divorce attorney,
549
00:28:13,825 --> 00:28:16,101
I'm sure Kamen has to account
for every penny he makes.
550
00:28:16,161 --> 00:28:19,506
Unless he has a source of income he
doesn't want anyone to know about.
551
00:28:20,232 --> 00:28:24,374
Talk to his secretary, see if he keeps
a printing press in his basement.
552
00:28:27,573 --> 00:28:30,554
Can we make this quick? If Mr. Kamen
finds out I'm meeting with you...
553
00:28:30,642 --> 00:28:32,383
I didn't twist your arm,
Ms. Oster.
554
00:28:32,911 --> 00:28:35,653
But if I don't talk to you, it
looks like I'm hiding something.
555
00:28:36,115 --> 00:28:38,823
Then you get to do a number on me
like you're doing on Mr. Kamen.
556
00:28:39,151 --> 00:28:40,630
You think we're being
unfair to him?
557
00:28:41,120 --> 00:28:43,896
The man knocks himself out for
people like the Blanchards.
558
00:28:44,289 --> 00:28:46,997
The way they treat him,
"Fetch this, fetch that,"
559
00:28:47,526 --> 00:28:49,767
"clean up this mess,
clean up that one."
560
00:28:50,796 --> 00:28:52,639
Katie Blanchard being
one of those messes?
561
00:28:52,898 --> 00:28:54,206
The three years
I've been with him,
562
00:28:54,266 --> 00:28:57,804
there hasn't been a month he hasn't had to
pull her out of one hell hole or another.
563
00:28:58,070 --> 00:29:00,016
Her family just
throws money at the problem.
564
00:29:00,505 --> 00:29:02,143
Or they let
Mr. Kamen do it.
565
00:29:03,442 --> 00:29:07,390
Ms. Oster, we know that she picked up an
envelope from his office every few days.
566
00:29:10,816 --> 00:29:14,229
She came in about a month ago.
The little brat threw a fit.
567
00:29:14,520 --> 00:29:15,555
What about?
568
00:29:15,621 --> 00:29:18,101
What else? Her mommy
wasn't paying for her drugs.
569
00:29:19,291 --> 00:29:22,795
I could hear her in Mr. Kamen's office,
both faucets running full tilt,
570
00:29:22,861 --> 00:29:27,105
yelling about her trust fund. She practically
accused him of stealing from her.
571
00:29:28,033 --> 00:29:29,535
I guess that little act worked.
572
00:29:29,968 --> 00:29:31,413
Mr. Kamen started
giving her money?
573
00:29:31,470 --> 00:29:32,608
Wouldn't you,
574
00:29:33,105 --> 00:29:35,984
with some crazed junkie jumping
up and down on your desk?
575
00:29:42,547 --> 00:29:45,824
The trust was set up by the late
Mr. Blanchard for his three children.
576
00:29:45,884 --> 00:29:48,421
Discretionary authority
rests with Mr. Kamen.
577
00:29:48,687 --> 00:29:50,894
He's the only one authorized
to make withdrawals?
578
00:29:51,023 --> 00:29:54,095
Yes, for the children's health,
education and welfare.
579
00:29:54,626 --> 00:29:57,368
A month ago,
Miss Blanchard came in
580
00:29:57,429 --> 00:30:00,035
with a withdrawal slip
signed by Mr. Kamen.
581
00:30:00,799 --> 00:30:02,642
So you gave her her money?
582
00:30:02,701 --> 00:30:03,736
No.
583
00:30:04,436 --> 00:30:07,212
Mr. Kamen's signature
had been duplicated.
584
00:30:08,507 --> 00:30:09,611
You mean forged.
585
00:30:09,675 --> 00:30:12,121
I'm sure no crime was intended.
586
00:30:12,477 --> 00:30:15,549
Are you positive
it was duplicated?
587
00:30:15,614 --> 00:30:16,786
You checked the signature card?
588
00:30:16,848 --> 00:30:18,020
I didn't have to.
589
00:30:18,350 --> 00:30:21,991
I explained to Miss Blanchard, Mr. Kamen
has been coming into the bank every week
590
00:30:22,054 --> 00:30:24,933
for the past year to withdraw
funds from the children's trust.
591
00:30:25,190 --> 00:30:26,464
I know his signature.
592
00:30:27,192 --> 00:30:29,365
Miss Blanchard became livid.
593
00:30:29,428 --> 00:30:30,771
Because you caught her lying?
594
00:30:30,963 --> 00:30:32,169
Not entirely.
595
00:30:32,664 --> 00:30:36,077
She ranted that Mr. Kamen had
been taking money from the trust
596
00:30:36,134 --> 00:30:38,546
and none of it
was going to her.
597
00:30:39,805 --> 00:30:43,116
Well, I talked to her mother. She had
no idea Kamen was taking money out.
598
00:30:43,875 --> 00:30:48,119
He embezzled almost $350,000 from
the trust account in the past year.
599
00:30:48,380 --> 00:30:51,190
Assuming that he didn't use the
money for the Blanchard kids.
600
00:30:51,717 --> 00:30:54,254
We verified he bought Matthew
a car and a trip to Vail.
601
00:30:54,319 --> 00:30:56,230
Other than that, the
money's unaccounted for.
602
00:30:56,388 --> 00:30:57,799
It seems pretty clear cut.
603
00:30:59,825 --> 00:31:02,738
He got reamed in his divorce.
He was desperate for money.
604
00:31:03,195 --> 00:31:05,539
The Blanchard trust fund
was just too much temptation.
605
00:31:05,831 --> 00:31:07,640
And the girl suspected
what he was doing.
606
00:31:07,733 --> 00:31:11,044
She was the only one who ever complained
about his handling of the account.
607
00:31:11,570 --> 00:31:15,541
She read him the riot act and then from one
day to the next, she's rolling in money.
608
00:31:16,174 --> 00:31:17,448
Blackmailing him.
609
00:31:17,509 --> 00:31:18,783
It's a good reason to kill her.
610
00:31:18,844 --> 00:31:21,518
No. Don't jump the canyon
on your motorcycle.
611
00:31:22,447 --> 00:31:25,428
Motive is not an element
in proving a murder charge.
612
00:31:26,151 --> 00:31:28,222
We could start by
charging him with larceny.
613
00:31:29,121 --> 00:31:32,534
That gives us license to tear his life apart.
Maybe something shakes loose.
614
00:31:36,294 --> 00:31:37,295
Just a minute.
615
00:31:39,865 --> 00:31:41,173
Excuse me, I'm in a meeting.
616
00:31:41,233 --> 00:31:42,541
Not anymore.
617
00:31:42,768 --> 00:31:44,577
We have a warrant
for your arrest.
618
00:31:44,636 --> 00:31:46,377
This time,
the signature's still wet.
619
00:31:46,438 --> 00:31:48,782
Jerome Kamen, you're under
arrest for larceny.
620
00:31:49,174 --> 00:31:50,778
You have the right
to remain silent.
621
00:31:51,043 --> 00:31:53,182
Anything you do say can and
will be used against you in...
622
00:31:54,646 --> 00:31:56,523
I don't know, McCoy,
you must be working off some
623
00:31:56,581 --> 00:31:58,026
secret edition
of the penal code.
624
00:31:58,083 --> 00:32:02,793
The one I have says that larceny requires
intent to deprive another of property.
625
00:32:03,455 --> 00:32:06,163
Over 300 grand disappeared
into his pocket.
626
00:32:06,224 --> 00:32:08,864
What was he doing, buying
condos for the Blanchard kids?
627
00:32:08,960 --> 00:32:11,531
Have you even read
the trust document, Mr. McCoy?
628
00:32:12,230 --> 00:32:15,677
It gives me absolute discretion
to use those funds as I see fit.
629
00:32:15,734 --> 00:32:17,372
Except to line your own pocket.
630
00:32:17,436 --> 00:32:20,246
We got your financial records
from your ex-wife's attorney.
631
00:32:20,339 --> 00:32:22,478
Seems to us you've been
living beyond your means.
632
00:32:22,541 --> 00:32:24,748
Every dollar I withdrew
went to Katie.
633
00:32:24,810 --> 00:32:27,154
You have no idea
what I did for that girl.
634
00:32:27,212 --> 00:32:29,818
You let her blow
$300,000 on drugs.
635
00:32:30,482 --> 00:32:34,089
What category does that fall under,
her health, education, or welfare?
636
00:32:34,152 --> 00:32:38,191
You can't prove that that money
didn't go to Kathleen Blanchard.
637
00:32:38,256 --> 00:32:40,236
Ergo, your case is crap.
638
00:32:40,992 --> 00:32:43,871
Now you can rain down as many search
warrants as you want on my client,
639
00:32:43,929 --> 00:32:46,034
but it's not gonna jump start
any murder charge.
640
00:32:47,999 --> 00:32:50,946
We've searched his home,
his office. Nothing.
641
00:32:51,369 --> 00:32:53,781
We need a direct link
between Kamen
642
00:32:53,839 --> 00:32:56,911
and the girl's death, or we
can forget the whole thing.
643
00:32:56,975 --> 00:32:58,716
JACK: She was a junkie.
He gave her money.
644
00:32:58,777 --> 00:33:01,155
It's inevitable he knew what
she was going to do with it.
645
00:33:02,113 --> 00:33:06,061
We can argue that he kept her supplied
with drugs and is liable for her overdose.
646
00:33:06,284 --> 00:33:09,390
The appellate division doesn't see it that way.
People v. Pinckney.
647
00:33:09,454 --> 00:33:10,933
There's no criminal liability.
648
00:33:10,989 --> 00:33:15,062
That was also true in New Jersey until
last summer. State v. Maldanado.
649
00:33:15,594 --> 00:33:19,064
They expanded their strict liability
statute to include drug suppliers.
650
00:33:19,131 --> 00:33:23,204
New Jersey. They had a statute
to work from and we don't.
651
00:33:23,435 --> 00:33:27,247
It's already manslaughter if you inject
someone with drugs and they overdose.
652
00:33:27,339 --> 00:33:30,650
It's not a stretch to step it
back to include suppliers.
653
00:33:31,576 --> 00:33:34,056
Pinckney's a 20-year-old decision.
It doesn't scare me.
654
00:33:34,112 --> 00:33:35,182
Scares me.
655
00:33:36,148 --> 00:33:39,027
Did you say that this girl
needed help injecting herself?
656
00:33:39,484 --> 00:33:40,588
According to her friend.
657
00:33:41,620 --> 00:33:45,261
And could that helping hand
have come from Kamen?
658
00:33:45,657 --> 00:33:48,900
If we find out who sold her drugs that
night, it may take us back to Kamen.
659
00:33:49,161 --> 00:33:52,438
We know of one of her drug connections.
Her old boyfriend.
660
00:33:53,031 --> 00:33:55,875
Have him picked up. And get a
search warrant for his apartment.
661
00:33:58,403 --> 00:34:00,041
You guys got
cement in your ears?
662
00:34:00,405 --> 00:34:03,579
I didn't see Katie that night
for pleasure or business.
663
00:34:03,642 --> 00:34:06,714
Even as we speak, the police
are tearing your place apart.
664
00:34:07,078 --> 00:34:09,490
They turn up so much
as a molecule of heroin...
665
00:34:09,548 --> 00:34:14,190
Misdemeanor possession. So he was
a bad boy, so he pays a fine.
666
00:34:14,286 --> 00:34:17,790
Your client already admitted to the
police he sold heroin to Katie Blanchard
667
00:34:17,856 --> 00:34:19,426
a week before she died.
668
00:34:19,658 --> 00:34:23,367
The charge will read, "Possession
with intent to sell."
669
00:34:23,528 --> 00:34:25,804
That's a B felony.
Wait a second.
670
00:34:26,298 --> 00:34:29,108
I told you I gave it to her.
I didn't sell it.
671
00:34:29,167 --> 00:34:32,011
No. No, that's
not the way I heard it.
672
00:34:32,671 --> 00:34:35,948
One way or another, we'll prove you supplied
her with the heroin that killed her.
673
00:34:36,007 --> 00:34:37,748
That's getting close
to manslaughter.
674
00:34:44,549 --> 00:34:48,361
It's not manslaughter if my
client indirectly supplied her.
675
00:34:49,688 --> 00:34:50,758
Indirectly?
676
00:34:52,190 --> 00:34:54,898
The night she OD'd,
Katie's brother called me.
677
00:34:55,260 --> 00:34:57,240
He said he needed some morph
for him and Katie.
678
00:34:57,529 --> 00:35:00,237
So I chased down a bag. I gave
it to him outside her apartment.
679
00:35:01,666 --> 00:35:04,203
He's lying.
I don't even use drugs.
680
00:35:04,736 --> 00:35:06,773
Then you wouldn't mind
submitting to a urine test.
681
00:35:06,838 --> 00:35:10,047
I wasn't there.
I was at Yale.
682
00:35:10,709 --> 00:35:12,882
I don't even know
where my sister was living.
683
00:35:13,011 --> 00:35:15,184
We can call the dean and
check your attendance records.
684
00:35:15,247 --> 00:35:18,251
Sol blew off Bankruptcy 101.
Big deal.
685
00:35:18,683 --> 00:35:21,425
You must have also
missed Evidence 102.
686
00:35:22,854 --> 00:35:26,563
We match your prints on this cup to
any prints at Katie's apartment,
687
00:35:26,825 --> 00:35:28,031
and you're cooked.
688
00:35:30,095 --> 00:35:31,904
What happened,
Mr. Blanchard?
689
00:35:40,138 --> 00:35:41,378
What happened?
690
00:35:43,275 --> 00:35:44,652
We got high together.
691
00:35:52,984 --> 00:35:56,522
When she started convulsing,
I panicked.
692
00:35:57,422 --> 00:36:01,529
I didn't know what to do. I
didn't want anyone to find...
693
00:36:04,329 --> 00:36:06,832
I called Jerry.
694
00:36:08,533 --> 00:36:09,534
He came over.
695
00:36:11,469 --> 00:36:13,312
He told me to
get the hell out of there.
696
00:36:16,074 --> 00:36:17,815
He said he'd
take care of Katie.
697
00:36:22,981 --> 00:36:23,982
(SIGHS)
698
00:36:25,383 --> 00:36:28,990
Kamen took responsibility to
save her, and he didn't do it.
699
00:36:29,888 --> 00:36:32,027
It was his opportunity
to let her die.
700
00:36:32,457 --> 00:36:34,164
Her brother gave her the drugs.
701
00:36:34,226 --> 00:36:37,036
Now, don't you think that
a jury might conclude
702
00:36:37,429 --> 00:36:39,306
that he's to blame
for her death?
703
00:36:39,597 --> 00:36:43,067
There was an intervening act. He tried
to save his sister by calling Kamen.
704
00:36:43,134 --> 00:36:44,169
ADAM: No.
705
00:36:45,403 --> 00:36:49,408
You try Kamen for murder, it's
his word against the brother's.
706
00:36:49,674 --> 00:36:51,483
There's still evidence
she was in his car.
707
00:36:51,543 --> 00:36:53,545
No. That was
ruled inadmissible.
708
00:36:53,612 --> 00:36:55,853
We can argue
inevitable discovery.
709
00:36:55,947 --> 00:36:58,325
No. No. No. No.
It won't fly.
710
00:36:58,850 --> 00:37:02,525
Kamen was acting as her surrogate father.
He was responsible.
711
00:37:02,587 --> 00:37:06,057
He could've called 911. He could've
rushed her to an emergency room.
712
00:37:06,391 --> 00:37:09,270
Instead he left her to die in
the cold behind a trash bin.
713
00:37:09,895 --> 00:37:14,435
Can you offer admissible evidence
that he transported her?
714
00:37:16,067 --> 00:37:17,273
(SIGHS)
715
00:37:18,136 --> 00:37:20,480
We present his motive,
that he was being blackmailed,
716
00:37:20,538 --> 00:37:23,246
the jury will figure out for
themselves how she got from A to B.
717
00:37:25,043 --> 00:37:26,920
Fine.
Take them through it.
718
00:37:30,849 --> 00:37:32,692
MATTHEW:
She filled up the syringe.
719
00:37:33,985 --> 00:37:38,957
She asked me to inject her. A few minutes
after, she started having a seizure.
720
00:37:39,290 --> 00:37:40,667
I didn't know what to do.
721
00:37:41,059 --> 00:37:42,402
I called Mr. Kamen.
722
00:37:42,827 --> 00:37:44,704
And what happened
as a result of your call?
723
00:37:45,130 --> 00:37:46,609
He came right over.
724
00:37:46,965 --> 00:37:49,411
But by then, her eyes were
rolling back in her head.
725
00:37:51,136 --> 00:37:54,447
I tried to revive her, but
Mr. Kamen told me I should leave.
726
00:37:55,540 --> 00:37:59,283
He said I would get kicked out of
Yale if anyone found out I was there.
727
00:38:00,912 --> 00:38:02,152
I never should've left.
728
00:38:02,580 --> 00:38:05,356
Did you have any communication
with Mr. Kamen after that?
729
00:38:05,650 --> 00:38:10,258
Yes. He called me the next day.
He told me Katie was dead.
730
00:38:11,456 --> 00:38:13,458
He made it sound like
it was my fault.
731
00:38:13,892 --> 00:38:16,668
He said he'd keep
his mouth shut to protect me.
732
00:38:17,395 --> 00:38:21,241
And what was your sister's condition
when you left her with Mr. Kamen?
733
00:38:22,400 --> 00:38:23,538
She was alive.
734
00:38:29,441 --> 00:38:30,442
(CLEARS THROAT)
735
00:38:30,742 --> 00:38:33,655
Mr. Blanchard,
why would you call my client?
736
00:38:33,712 --> 00:38:36,124
Does he have some special
expertise with overdoses?
737
00:38:36,214 --> 00:38:39,252
Ever since we were little,
whenever we got into trouble,
738
00:38:39,317 --> 00:38:40,660
we knew we could count on him.
739
00:38:41,019 --> 00:38:42,896
For example, when you were
expelled from Choate?
740
00:38:45,423 --> 00:38:46,561
Yes.
741
00:38:48,059 --> 00:38:50,972
He let me stay with him until
he could talk to my father.
742
00:38:51,329 --> 00:38:52,672
And why were you
kicked out of Choate?
743
00:38:52,730 --> 00:38:53,868
Objection.
744
00:38:54,199 --> 00:38:55,610
Goes to credibility,
Your Honor.
745
00:38:55,667 --> 00:38:58,273
Overruled.
The witness will answer.
746
00:38:59,971 --> 00:39:02,645
They found marijuana
in my room.
747
00:39:03,074 --> 00:39:04,144
So you're a drug addict?
748
00:39:04,209 --> 00:39:05,517
I'm not an addict.
749
00:39:06,077 --> 00:39:09,456
I only smoked heroin once or
twice a month, on the weekends.
750
00:39:09,514 --> 00:39:12,427
POLLARD: But if anybody found out your
little secret, you would be in big trouble.
751
00:39:12,484 --> 00:39:13,485
Isn't that right?
752
00:39:13,551 --> 00:39:14,621
Yes.
753
00:39:14,853 --> 00:39:16,958
And if anybody found out
that you had injected
754
00:39:17,021 --> 00:39:19,160
your sister with
a lethal dose of heroin,
755
00:39:19,224 --> 00:39:21,465
you would be in very big
trouble, isn't that correct?
756
00:39:21,526 --> 00:39:23,233
I already admitted what I did.
757
00:39:23,294 --> 00:39:26,036
And if anybody has a reason
to move your sister's body
758
00:39:26,097 --> 00:39:28,304
to hide the circumstances of her
death, it's you. Isn't it...
759
00:39:28,366 --> 00:39:30,312
I didn't move her. Mr. Kamen said...
Nothing further.
760
00:39:30,368 --> 00:39:31,438
He would help her.
761
00:39:33,304 --> 00:39:37,548
Jerome Kamen held full discretionary
authority over the joint trust account.
762
00:39:38,109 --> 00:39:41,579
But I gave him specific instructions
not to give any money to my daughter.
763
00:39:42,047 --> 00:39:45,517
Every dime she got her hands on
went to drugs. He knew that.
764
00:39:45,583 --> 00:39:50,464
Of the $346,000 withdrawn
by Mr. Kamen,
765
00:39:50,555 --> 00:39:53,468
were you able to ascertain how
much of it went to the children?
766
00:39:53,725 --> 00:39:57,605
To the best of my knowledge, only
$33,000 were spent on my children.
767
00:39:58,196 --> 00:40:00,176
I haven't been able
to account for the rest.
768
00:40:01,132 --> 00:40:02,133
Thank you.
769
00:40:07,805 --> 00:40:09,807
Didn't you forbid Katie
to live in the family home
770
00:40:09,874 --> 00:40:11,717
or any of the other houses
that you own?
771
00:40:12,544 --> 00:40:14,046
You make it sound so easy.
772
00:40:14,879 --> 00:40:18,725
The psychiatrist said that it was best
for her and for my other children.
773
00:40:18,883 --> 00:40:20,556
POLLARD: She was a destructive
influence on them?
774
00:40:20,618 --> 00:40:22,359
She only really hurt herself.
775
00:40:22,887 --> 00:40:25,527
Didn't you also forbid her to contact
any other member of the family
776
00:40:25,590 --> 00:40:26,796
except through my client?
777
00:40:26,858 --> 00:40:28,132
I had to protect them.
778
00:40:28,726 --> 00:40:30,103
Katie could be
very manipulative...
779
00:40:30,161 --> 00:40:31,367
So it fell on my client
780
00:40:31,429 --> 00:40:32,840
to shoulder
the sole responsibility
781
00:40:32,897 --> 00:40:35,673
for your self-destructive,
drug-addicted daughter,
782
00:40:35,900 --> 00:40:38,073
is that right? MRS. BLANCHARD:
I was at my wit's end.
783
00:40:38,136 --> 00:40:40,616
Cutting her off was the best
thing I could do as her mother.
784
00:40:41,472 --> 00:40:43,952
No matter how much I wanted to,
I couldn't work a miracle.
785
00:40:45,877 --> 00:40:49,415
But what's his excuse? He stole
from her, he bought her drugs.
786
00:40:49,614 --> 00:40:51,457
Or he bought her food
and gave her shelter.
787
00:40:52,283 --> 00:40:54,786
Or would you prefer that he be
as cold and heartless as you
788
00:40:54,853 --> 00:40:56,992
and let your daughter die a
miserable death on the streets?
789
00:40:57,055 --> 00:40:58,125
Objection!
790
00:40:58,189 --> 00:40:59,862
She doesn't
have to answer that.
791
00:41:03,595 --> 00:41:07,133
The money was there, I had discretionary
authority. I gave it to her.
792
00:41:07,498 --> 00:41:10,104
Simple as that.
Nothing criminal about it.
793
00:41:10,602 --> 00:41:14,311
But I can understand why Mrs. Blanchard
blames me for Katie's death.
794
00:41:15,039 --> 00:41:16,279
Can you explain it to us?
795
00:41:18,109 --> 00:41:21,579
She disowned her daughter. Katie
is dead as a consequence.
796
00:41:22,013 --> 00:41:24,789
But it's easier to blame me.
To cut me off, in a way.
797
00:41:25,683 --> 00:41:28,323
That's how Meryl deals with
everything she finds unpleasant.
798
00:41:29,120 --> 00:41:31,828
POLLARD: The night that Katie died, did
you receive a call from her brother?
799
00:41:32,023 --> 00:41:34,902
I was home most of the night. I
went out to get a bite to eat.
800
00:41:34,959 --> 00:41:37,872
When I came home, my answering
machine was flashing.
801
00:41:38,663 --> 00:41:39,767
But no one left a message.
802
00:41:39,964 --> 00:41:41,602
And did you see
Miss Blanchard that night?
803
00:41:41,666 --> 00:41:42,701
No.
804
00:41:43,701 --> 00:41:46,204
And if I had, I certainly
hope I could've saved her.
805
00:41:46,971 --> 00:41:47,972
Thank you.
806
00:41:53,411 --> 00:41:57,154
Why did you lie when the police first
interviewed you about Miss Blanchard?
807
00:41:57,849 --> 00:42:02,127
As I explained, I was concerned
about my professional reputation.
808
00:42:02,220 --> 00:42:05,531
And not because you were present
when Miss Blanchard overdosed?
809
00:42:05,623 --> 00:42:06,693
I wasn't there.
810
00:42:06,791 --> 00:42:09,533
And not because you
transported her in your car?
811
00:42:12,196 --> 00:42:14,699
Maybe I didn't say it
loud enough the first time.
812
00:42:14,966 --> 00:42:16,741
I didn't see her that night.
813
00:42:16,801 --> 00:42:19,805
Then how do you explain the fact
that her vomit was in your car?
814
00:42:19,871 --> 00:42:21,817
Objection. Your Honor.
815
00:42:21,873 --> 00:42:23,580
I'll see counsel in chambers.
816
00:42:25,743 --> 00:42:29,190
This is grounds for a mistrial.
Not to mention sanctions.
817
00:42:29,480 --> 00:42:31,016
Your Honor
suppressed this evidence.
818
00:42:31,082 --> 00:42:32,618
Settle down, Mr. Pollard.
819
00:42:32,717 --> 00:42:35,698
Mr. McCoy, I'll bet you were the
kind of child who touched the plate
820
00:42:35,787 --> 00:42:37,528
even when your mom
told you it was hot.
821
00:42:37,589 --> 00:42:41,537
Mr. Kamen is on the stand lying
about moving Miss Blanchard's body.
822
00:42:41,626 --> 00:42:43,970
I have every right
to challenge his credibility.
823
00:42:44,028 --> 00:42:47,100
Oh, sure. Why let a little thing like
the Fourth Amendment stand in the way,
824
00:42:47,165 --> 00:42:49,839
especially when you can sneak the
evidence in through the back door?
825
00:42:49,901 --> 00:42:52,814
The Constitution says I can't convict
your client with the evidence.
826
00:42:53,104 --> 00:42:55,550
Where does it say that I can't
use it to prove him a liar?
827
00:42:55,607 --> 00:42:58,053
A jury isn't gonna make that fine
a distinction, and you know it.
828
00:42:58,109 --> 00:43:01,682
I'll make sure they do, Mr. Pollard.
I'll charge the jury accordingly.
829
00:43:02,280 --> 00:43:04,988
The evidence is admissible
to challenge credibility
830
00:43:05,149 --> 00:43:07,527
but will not be used
for liability.
831
00:43:07,685 --> 00:43:10,825
The question will stand,
and the witness will answer.
832
00:43:11,289 --> 00:43:12,700
We'll resume after lunch.
833
00:43:12,757 --> 00:43:15,169
Jack, your office, 10 minutes?
834
00:43:19,330 --> 00:43:22,607
You may get the evidence in now, but
you know it never survives an appeal.
835
00:43:23,434 --> 00:43:26,415
I'll worry about that after the jury
convicts your client of murder.
836
00:43:26,471 --> 00:43:30,510
This is nuts. Katie was
a junkie. Junkies die.
837
00:43:30,808 --> 00:43:33,049
Anyone who knew her
could've predicted that.
838
00:43:33,144 --> 00:43:36,057
Nothing is inevitable,
Mr. Kamen, except your residency
839
00:43:36,147 --> 00:43:39,253
at one of our correctional facilities.
You're a liar.
840
00:43:39,384 --> 00:43:41,159
And now the jury knows
you're a liar.
841
00:43:44,122 --> 00:43:45,499
I've made my case.
842
00:43:51,396 --> 00:43:54,104
Man two, minimum sentence to cover
all counts of the indictment.
843
00:43:54,165 --> 00:43:56,577
Man one, 8113-to-25.
844
00:43:56,968 --> 00:43:59,949
What kind of a deal is that? Do
you expect him to serve the max?
845
00:44:00,004 --> 00:44:03,417
Yes. And after that
he does two years for larceny.
846
00:44:05,109 --> 00:44:06,816
You have a minute
to make up your mind.
847
00:44:08,646 --> 00:44:09,852
I can't believe this.
848
00:44:11,048 --> 00:44:12,994
I was driving her
to the damn hospital.
849
00:44:14,185 --> 00:44:16,631
And what hospital was that,
Mr. Kamen?
850
00:44:23,461 --> 00:44:24,701
I can't recall.
851
00:44:28,032 --> 00:44:32,174
But I didn't do anything wrong.
Meryl didn't care about her.
852
00:44:33,371 --> 00:44:35,647
If it weren't for me, she
would've been dead months ago.
853
00:44:36,374 --> 00:44:40,083
Even if she survived this overdose, it was
just a matter of time till the next one.
854
00:44:40,978 --> 00:44:44,619
She was in pain,
she was killing herself.
855
00:44:44,682 --> 00:44:48,528
She wanted this. Somebody
had to make a decision.
856
00:44:48,786 --> 00:44:50,925
It wasn't your
decision to make.
857
00:44:50,988 --> 00:44:52,763
It was my decision.
858
00:44:54,158 --> 00:44:56,900
Ken Blanchard was
my friend for 35 years.
859
00:44:57,662 --> 00:45:00,404
I was the only one he would
entrust with his children.
860
00:45:01,566 --> 00:45:03,671
That family can't survive
without me.
861
00:45:04,569 --> 00:45:07,743
I pay their bills,
I invest their money,
862
00:45:08,706 --> 00:45:12,244
I clean up the messes they make.
I damn well run their lives.
863
00:45:12,777 --> 00:45:16,657
And Meryl dares accuse me
of stealing from them?
864
00:45:17,448 --> 00:45:20,725
No, sir. I was entitled.
865
00:45:22,487 --> 00:45:25,627
I'm not gonna waste a minute
regretting anything I've done.
866
00:45:29,060 --> 00:45:31,336
You'll be regretting it
for the next 25 years
867
00:45:31,396 --> 00:45:33,034
if you don't give me
your answer right now.
868
00:45:44,175 --> 00:45:47,179
We'll take the deal.
Send me the paperwork.
869
00:46:03,461 --> 00:46:06,567
He's convinced himself he did
her a favor by letting her die.
870
00:46:08,900 --> 00:46:10,607
He did himself a favor.
871
00:46:12,303 --> 00:46:13,611
10 years in prison?
872
00:46:13,671 --> 00:46:14,843
(SIGHS)
873
00:46:14,972 --> 00:46:16,974
It may cure him
of his bad habit.
874
00:46:19,277 --> 00:46:20,278
Arrogance.
875
00:46:23,347 --> 00:46:24,587
(EXHALING)
876
00:46:24,637 --> 00:46:29,187
