What about the baby?
68
00:03:15,417 --> 00:03:18,921
Twenty-nine weeks. We were able
to deliver him via C-section.
69
00:03:18,987 --> 00:03:20,466
He's touch and go, too.
70
00:03:20,522 --> 00:03:22,593
Another half hour, they
both would've been dead.
71
00:03:22,658 --> 00:03:26,162
Can you tell us how long she was lying
in the trunk after she got shot?
72
00:03:26,228 --> 00:03:27,298
Oh, it'd be a guess,
73
00:03:27,362 --> 00:03:28,363
but given the nature
of the wounds
74
00:03:28,430 --> 00:03:31,104
and the amount of blood loss,
I'd say two or three hours.
75

Is there anything else?
76
00:03:32,434 --> 00:03:34,607

to see your grandson
now if you like.
107
00:04:44,539 --> 00:04:47,918
Yes, please.

108
00:04:47,976 --> 00:04:49,580

You go ahead.

to get married in June.

You two live together?
113
00:05:01,723 --> 00:05:03,498
Dena's pretty
independent minded.

Wanted to keep her own place
till we tied the knot.

have dinner with you.

at 1:00 on Saturday.

with the paperwork,
119
00:05:14,403 --> 00:05:15,643
we didn't leave
until 2:00.
120
00:05:15,704 --> 00:05:17,047
So, you work at the bank, too?
121
00:05:17,105 --> 00:05:19,585
I'm the manager. Uh,
People's Bank of Harlem.
122
00:05:20,275 --> 00:05:22,346
So after the bank
closed, then what?
123
00:05:22,544 --> 00:05:23,614
I went home,
124
00:05:23,678 --> 00:05:25,658
and Dena and Cheryl went
shopping for baby clothes.
125
00:05:25,714 --> 00:05:26,784
Cheryl?
126

works in Human Resources.

00:05:29,851 --> 00:05:33,264
Just for the record, uh, what
did you do after you got home?
128
00:05:33,488 --> 00:05:35,365
Watched some of
the St. John's game.
129
00:05:35,857 --> 00:05:37,336

00:05:38,059 --> 00:05:39,265
After that, I went out.
131
00:05:39,327 --> 00:05:41,034

with friends.
132
00:05:41,096 --> 00:05:42,336
And last night?

00:05:46,701 --> 00:05:48,009
So the last time
that you and Dena
136
00:05:48,069 --> 00:05:49,639
spoke to each other
was when you left work?
137
00:05:49,704 --> 00:05:52,082
Dena mentioned she might
have dinner with Cheryl.
138
00:05:52,674 --> 00:05:54,153
I thought that's where she was.
139
00:05:59,181 --> 00:06:01,320
Layettes, baby clothes,
car seats.
140
00:06:01,383 --> 00:06:02,987
There was this
humongous registry list.
141
00:06:03,051 --> 00:06:04,496
We spent the whole afternoon.
142
00:06:04,553 --> 00:06:07,432
Anything unusual about her mood?
Her behavior?
143
00:06:07,489 --> 00:06:10,026
Uh, aside from hormones, no.
144
00:06:10,091 --> 00:06:12,093
Any problems
with her boyfriend?
145
00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:13,434
Miles? He's a saint.
146
00:06:13,495 --> 00:06:14,974
Worships the ground
she walk on.
147
00:06:15,030 --> 00:06:17,169
What time did you
two get done shopping?
148
00:06:17,532 --> 00:06:19,375
Dena dropped me
off around 6:00.
149
00:06:19,434 --> 00:06:21,175
And you were going to
have dinner together?
150
00:06:21,236 --> 00:06:22,442
Uh, she bagged on that.
151
00:06:22,504 --> 00:06:24,450
Said she was wiped out
from all the shopping.
152
00:06:24,506 --> 00:06:26,918
And she didn't mention
any other plans?
153
00:06:27,442 --> 00:06:30,184
No. She just said she was going
to head home to Brooklyn.
154
00:06:35,116 --> 00:06:36,754
Fender-bender
happened around 11:00,
155
00:06:36,818 --> 00:06:38,627
and the doctor puts the
shooting at about 8:00.
156
00:06:38,687 --> 00:06:40,257
Forensics indicates
she was shot
157
00:06:40,322 --> 00:06:41,699
while she was in the trunk.
158
00:06:41,756 --> 00:06:43,167
Slugs were from a .45.
159
00:06:43,225 --> 00:06:44,795
Any prints?
Nothing so far.
160
00:06:44,860 --> 00:06:48,239
They did find scratch marks on
the trunk lock from the inside,
161
00:06:48,296 --> 00:06:49,832
like she was working on
it with something.
162
00:06:49,898 --> 00:06:51,036
Must've been why
it popped open.
163
00:06:51,099 --> 00:06:53,602
So she was forced inside
before she was shot,
164
00:06:53,668 --> 00:06:54,772
then struggled to escape.
165
00:06:55,670 --> 00:06:57,081
Not a pleasant thought.
166
00:06:57,139 --> 00:06:58,482
All right, say
she was nabbed at 7:30,
167
00:06:58,540 --> 00:07:01,578
that still leaves
a one and a half hour gap
168
00:07:01,643 --> 00:07:04,317
from the time Dena
dropped Cheryl Treadwell off.
169

BRISCOE: We're running down her cell
phone records and credit cards.
170
00:07:07,215 --> 00:07:09,559
Dena told her boyfriend that she was
gonna go have dinner with Cheryl
171
00:07:09,618 --> 00:07:11,962
then she told Cheryl she changed
her mind and she was going home.
172
00:07:12,387 --> 00:07:14,492
But she didn't. Why?
173

BRISCOE: His alibi
seems to check out.
177
00:07:24,132 --> 00:07:26,840
From all indications,
he's a stand-up guy.
178
00:07:26,902 --> 00:07:28,813
No priors, steady employment.
179
00:07:28,870 --> 00:07:31,009
And Dena's mother's
his biggest fan.
180
00:07:31,072 --> 00:07:32,517
Well, that says something.
181
00:07:32,574 --> 00:07:34,110
Yeah, all right. Thanks.
182
00:07:34,175 --> 00:07:36,416
That was auto. We got a
hit on the Blaupunkt.
183
00:07:37,512 --> 00:07:38,718
What's this code?
184
00:07:38,780 --> 00:07:39,986
I never heard anything
about a code.
185
00:07:40,048 --> 00:07:42,756
BMW radios are manufactured
with an encoded chip,
186
00:07:42,817 --> 00:07:45,093
which is specific to the
car it's registered to.
187
00:07:45,153 --> 00:07:47,463
Ah! So, you found
my radio, huh?
188
00:07:47,522 --> 00:07:48,557
Great.
189
00:07:48,623 --> 00:07:51,536
If you happen to see a few wheels
and an engine, let me know.
190
00:07:51,593 --> 00:07:53,971
My car was stolen
four months ago.
191
00:07:54,029 --> 00:07:55,235
ED: Four months ago?
192
00:07:55,297 --> 00:07:57,436
Yeah, some cops raided a
chop shop up in the Bronx
193
00:07:57,499 --> 00:07:58,739
back in November.
194
00:07:59,034 --> 00:08:00,775
They showed up with
one of my front doors.
195
00:08:00,835 --> 00:08:02,712
And now you guys
bring me my radio.
196
00:08:02,771 --> 00:08:04,978
At this rate, I figure I ought
to get the whole car back
197
00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:06,485
in about seven years.
198
00:08:06,541 --> 00:08:09,317
Do you remember the cop's name
who brought you the door?
199
00:08:09,377 --> 00:08:11,254
No. Had me fill out
some forms. Uh...
200
00:08:11,313 --> 00:08:13,589
An affidavit for the,
uh, Grand Jury.
201
00:08:13,648 --> 00:08:15,685
BRISCOE: You got a copy of it?
Yeah. Bedroom.
202
00:08:16,384 --> 00:08:17,590
Yeah, in the glove compartment.
203
00:08:17,652 --> 00:08:18,824
(CHUCKLING)
204
00:08:22,657 --> 00:08:24,898
A grand larceny indictment
would cause most people
205
00:08:24,960 --> 00:08:26,803
to reconsider
their line of work.
206
00:08:26,861 --> 00:08:28,534
Yeah, but not you, right, Bob?
207
00:08:28,830 --> 00:08:31,401
You just opened another
chop shop someplace else.
208
00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:33,775
I don't know what
you're talking about.
209
00:08:33,835 --> 00:08:36,179
Come on, man. We talked
to the Bronx D.A.
210
00:08:36,237 --> 00:08:37,511
We found out you were
running the largest
211
00:08:37,572 --> 00:08:39,415
stolen auto parts operation
on Jerome Avenue.
212
00:08:39,908 --> 00:08:41,478
BRISCOE: Where you
running it out of now?
213
00:08:41,543 --> 00:08:43,614
My client's put
his past behind him.
214
00:08:43,878 --> 00:08:45,789
He's exploring other
business opportunities now.
215
00:08:45,847 --> 00:08:46,848
Oh, yeah?
216
00:08:47,048 --> 00:08:48,584
You mean like attempted murder?
217
00:08:49,284 --> 00:08:50,285
What?
218
00:08:50,352 --> 00:08:52,730
We found a pregnant woman
in the trunk of a car
219
00:08:52,787 --> 00:08:53,925
that was boosted.
220
00:08:53,989 --> 00:08:55,468
She was shot three times.
221
00:08:55,523 --> 00:08:57,434
What makes you think
my client's involved?
222
00:08:57,492 --> 00:09:00,735
There were stolen auto parts
in it that matched vehicles
223
00:09:00,795 --> 00:09:02,570
that were seized
in the chop shop.
224
00:09:03,031 --> 00:09:04,977
But they never found your
warehouse, did they, Bob?
225
00:09:07,802 --> 00:09:10,510
If my client cooperates,
what's in it for him?
226
00:09:10,572 --> 00:09:14,076
If his information is
good, we talk to the D.A.
227
00:09:14,142 --> 00:09:15,951
and we turn this indictment
into a misdemeanor.
228
00:09:23,051 --> 00:09:24,052
Okay.
229
00:09:24,119 --> 00:09:26,531
We're looking for two guys.
Early 20s.
230
00:09:26,755 --> 00:09:28,530
One of 'em had
a cast on his right arm.
231
00:09:31,826 --> 00:09:33,169
Gabor.
232
00:09:34,229 --> 00:09:35,435
Gabor Hartunian.
233
00:09:38,667 --> 00:09:40,578
Hey! Anybody
lose a radio?
234
00:09:41,303 --> 00:09:43,214
Who are you?
The Car Fairy.
235
00:09:43,271 --> 00:09:45,114
Put your hands
behind your back.
236
00:09:47,142 --> 00:09:48,246
Lennie...
237
00:09:55,583 --> 00:09:57,256
ED: Gabor Hartunian,
I presume.
238
00:09:59,287 --> 00:10:01,198
Careful.
Don't hurt his hand.
239
00:10:03,491 --> 00:10:04,868
Where were you Saturday night?
Home.
240
00:10:04,926 --> 00:10:06,906
This is before or after
you took the Camry?
241
00:10:07,495 --> 00:10:09,168
I don't know about Camry.
242
00:10:09,230 --> 00:10:10,800
And you bought this
wholesale, right?
243
00:10:11,466 --> 00:10:12,809
Never see it before.
244
00:10:12,867 --> 00:10:15,507
Sarkisian gave you up, Mark.
How do you think we found you?
245
00:10:15,570 --> 00:10:17,516
BRISCOE: Did you know
that woman was pregnant?
246
00:10:17,572 --> 00:10:18,676
What woman?
247
00:10:18,740 --> 00:10:21,550
(BOTH SPEAKING
FOREIGN LANGUAGE)
248
00:10:21,609 --> 00:10:23,680
No, no woman.
Just car.
249
00:10:23,812 --> 00:10:24,813
Shut up, Gabor.
250
00:10:24,879 --> 00:10:27,086
Yes, woman. You shoot.
251
00:10:27,148 --> 00:10:28,456
Me? No shoot.
252
00:10:28,516 --> 00:10:29,551
What about him?
He shoot?
253
00:10:29,617 --> 00:10:31,597
Whoa, whoa.
Nobody shoot no one.
254
00:10:31,653 --> 00:10:32,893
You should've made
sure she was dead.
255
00:10:32,954 --> 00:10:35,059
Now she's gonna be
able to identify you.
256
00:10:35,123 --> 00:10:36,932
Yeah, not to mention
the couple you rear-ended.
257
00:10:36,991 --> 00:10:39,870
You're gonna be as old as they
are by the time you get out.
258
00:10:44,999 --> 00:10:46,000
No shoot no woman.
259
00:10:48,203 --> 00:10:49,978
(SPEAKING FOREIGN LANGUAGE)
260
00:10:50,805 --> 00:10:51,977
Tell the truth.
261
00:11:00,014 --> 00:11:01,357
The car was in a lot
on the west side.
262
00:11:02,016 --> 00:11:03,222
What lot?
263
00:11:03,284 --> 00:11:06,128
Twelfth Avenue and 66th Street.
By the river.
264
00:11:06,588 --> 00:11:07,658
Why that car?
265
00:11:07,722 --> 00:11:09,827
Sarkisian need Camry parts.
266
00:11:09,891 --> 00:11:11,837
You expect us to
believe you two mopes
267
00:11:11,893 --> 00:11:13,566
just happened to pick a Camry
268
00:11:13,628 --> 00:11:15,505
that had a half-dead
woman in the trunk?
269
00:11:15,563 --> 00:11:17,565
I swear on my father's grave.
270
00:11:17,632 --> 00:11:19,236
How do I know
your father's dead?
271
00:11:19,300 --> 00:11:20,438
No shoot no woman.
272
00:11:20,869 --> 00:11:22,075
Well, what time was this?
273
00:11:22,137 --> 00:11:26,313
Around 10:30. We broke into the
car and drive it off the lot.
274
00:11:26,374 --> 00:11:27,478
That's it.
275
00:11:27,542 --> 00:11:28,612
And then he hit that other car.
276
00:11:29,811 --> 00:11:31,916
We never even
looked in the trunk.
277
00:11:31,980 --> 00:11:32,981
(KNOCKING ON DOOR)
278
00:11:40,488 --> 00:11:42,866
You know, as much as I
want to close this case,
279
00:11:42,924 --> 00:11:44,835
my gut tells me
we're wasting our time.
280
00:11:44,893 --> 00:11:45,928
They're just punks.
281
00:11:45,994 --> 00:11:47,029
Forensics turn up anything?
282
00:11:47,095 --> 00:11:48,699
Well, they found their
prints inside the car,
283
00:11:48,763 --> 00:11:49,969
but nowhere near the trunk.
284
00:11:50,031 --> 00:11:51,704
(SIGHING) Well, if it's
not these two guys,
285
00:11:51,766 --> 00:11:52,904
we're looking at a blank wall.
286
00:11:52,967 --> 00:11:56,141
Well, let's just get search warrants
for both their homes just in case.
287
00:11:56,204 --> 00:11:58,343
PEREZ: Lieutenant,
the hospital just called.
288
00:11:58,406 --> 00:12:00,443
Dena Meredith died
30 minutes ago.
289
00:12:00,742 --> 00:12:03,120
(SIGHING) That baby.
290
00:12:04,045 --> 00:12:05,888
What away to enter the world.
291
00:12:11,619 --> 00:12:12,825
How'd it go?
292
00:12:12,887 --> 00:12:16,198
Dumb and Dumber came up clean
on the search of their homes.
293
00:12:16,257 --> 00:12:17,258
Not much here either.
294
00:12:17,325 --> 00:12:21,034
Dena Meredith's utility
bills, address book.
295
00:12:21,396 --> 00:12:23,398
Ed, cell phone IUDs,
296
00:12:23,832 --> 00:12:25,209
log from the day of the murder,
297
00:12:25,266 --> 00:12:26,574
and this is from
the credit card company.
298
00:12:26,634 --> 00:12:27,635
Thanks, Reina.
299
00:12:27,702 --> 00:12:30,808
One-minute call to her
home number at 3:27 p.m.
300
00:12:30,872 --> 00:12:32,977
Probably checking
her answering machine.
301
00:12:33,675 --> 00:12:35,586
Another call at 4:05.
302
00:12:35,643 --> 00:12:37,213
Three minutes to Jersey.
303
00:12:37,278 --> 00:12:38,552
Her mother said she
called at 4:00, right?
304
00:12:38,613 --> 00:12:39,683
You got her mother's
number over there?
305
00:12:39,747 --> 00:12:40,919
Whoa, listen to this.
306
00:12:40,982 --> 00:12:45,226
Credit card charge
for $14 at Lot 61.
307
00:12:45,286 --> 00:12:47,766
Saturday, 7:20 p.m.
308
00:12:47,822 --> 00:12:49,733
That's about an hour
before she got shot.
309
00:12:49,791 --> 00:12:51,168
You know this Lot 61?
310
00:12:51,226 --> 00:12:52,728
Yeah, it's a spot downtown.
311
00:12:52,927 --> 00:12:54,406
One last hurrah.
312
00:12:55,730 --> 00:12:57,607
Yeah, I remember her.
313
00:12:57,932 --> 00:13:00,742
She was wearing some maternity
thing Still pretty cute.
314
00:13:01,936 --> 00:13:03,506
She came in here alone?
315
00:13:03,571 --> 00:13:05,209
Said she was waiting
for someone.
316
00:13:05,273 --> 00:13:06,843
We were packed, so I
made some room for her
317
00:13:06,908 --> 00:13:07,978
at the end of the bar
and got her a snack.
318
00:13:08,509 --> 00:13:09,920
A $14 snack?
319
00:13:10,845 --> 00:13:13,485
So do you know if her
date ever showed up here?
320
00:13:14,048 --> 00:13:16,085
About 10 minutes later.
Two guys.
321
00:13:16,651 --> 00:13:18,153
You ever seen them
in here before?
322
00:13:18,219 --> 00:13:19,323
Nope.
323
00:13:19,387 --> 00:13:20,559
So, what happened next?
324
00:13:20,622 --> 00:13:22,659
Well, they hung out with her
for a few minutes and left.
325
00:13:22,724 --> 00:13:24,294
BRISCOE: She left
with the two guys?
326
00:13:24,392 --> 00:13:26,099
Seemed like she knew 'em.
327
00:13:26,160 --> 00:13:27,230
She in some kind of trouble?
328
00:13:27,829 --> 00:13:29,240
Not anymore.
329
00:13:29,497 --> 00:13:30,908
Did anybody else
see them leave?
330
00:13:30,965 --> 00:13:33,036
Yeah. Uh, check with Dom.
331
00:13:33,201 --> 00:13:34,874
He's like the Pope
of 21st Street.
332
00:13:35,503 --> 00:13:38,575
Yeah, these two brothers rolled up
in this champagne-colored Lexus.
333
00:13:39,173 --> 00:13:40,880
Gave me a C-note
to watch it.
334
00:13:41,376 --> 00:13:43,447
Kind of sticks on a player's
mind, know what I mean?
335
00:13:43,511 --> 00:13:44,819
You catch their names?
336
00:13:45,113 --> 00:13:47,059
One of the cats
I seen around before.
337
00:13:47,382 --> 00:13:48,759
Uh, Henry.
338
00:13:48,816 --> 00:13:50,090
Other dude had
a scar on his face.
339
00:13:50,151 --> 00:13:51,357
I never saw him before.
340
00:13:51,419 --> 00:13:53,330
This Henry have a last name?
341
00:13:53,388 --> 00:13:54,890
I'm sure he does,
342
00:13:54,956 --> 00:13:57,402
but we're not exactly on a
last name basis around here.
343
00:13:57,458 --> 00:13:59,438
Champagne Lexus.
You mean the SUV?
344
00:13:59,494 --> 00:14:01,735
Oh, word to the mother,
man. The whole package,
345
00:14:01,796 --> 00:14:03,571
tricked out from
top to bottom, baby.
346
00:14:03,631 --> 00:14:05,372
ED: Any idea where
he got it from?
347
00:14:05,433 --> 00:14:06,878
Nah. I didn't ask.
348
00:14:07,101 --> 00:14:09,206
It's not exactly in
a player's budget.
349
00:14:09,270 --> 00:14:11,682
But he was all up in my grill
about watching it for him.
350
00:14:11,739 --> 00:14:14,845
I think he said he had just picked
it up somewhere in midtown.
351
00:14:14,909 --> 00:14:16,911
So you say the two men
went in together,
352
00:14:16,978 --> 00:14:19,219
and a few minutes later,
they came out with the girl?
353
00:14:19,280 --> 00:14:21,692
Yeah. When they came out,
the dude with the scar,
354
00:14:21,749 --> 00:14:22,750
went off
with the pregnant lady.
355
00:14:22,817 --> 00:14:25,297
They all came out of the club
together, then they split up?
356
00:14:25,353 --> 00:14:27,128
They might've been
going to the same spot.
357
00:14:27,188 --> 00:14:29,065
'Cause see, what happened
was the dude came out,
358
00:14:29,123 --> 00:14:31,228
then he said something to
Henry about following him.
359
00:14:31,292 --> 00:14:32,635
Any idea where they were going?
360
00:14:32,961 --> 00:14:34,031
You got me there, baby.
361
00:14:34,095 --> 00:14:36,405
Hey, man, thank you.
You got it. Take care.
362
00:14:36,464 --> 00:14:37,943
All right.
Take care of yourself, huh?
363
00:14:37,999 --> 00:14:39,069
You, too.
364
00:14:39,133 --> 00:14:42,342
I think there's only one
Lexus dealership in Midtown.
365
00:14:43,805 --> 00:14:46,547
We need to know how many
you've sold in the past month.

Oh, that's, uh, 18 units
since New Year's.
368

All with the full
option package?
369
00:14:52,647 --> 00:14:53,648
Well, let's see.

BOY 1: Ricky, Ricky,
can you sign this?
383
00:15:29,784 --> 00:15:31,092
Hey, Chris, could you
sign my ball?
384
00:15:31,152 --> 00:15:32,358
Yeah, sure, man.
What's up?

Uh, I'll see you guys, I'll see you.
Sorry about that.
387
00:15:36,791 --> 00:15:37,792
See you, kids.

We're just here to ask you
a couple of questions.
392
00:15:43,831 --> 00:15:44,969
Questions?
About what?
393
00:15:45,033 --> 00:15:46,512
About a champagne Lexus?
394
00:15:47,435 --> 00:15:49,210
My Lexus?
I just bought it.
395
00:15:49,637 --> 00:15:50,945
What happened to my ride?
396
00:15:51,005 --> 00:15:53,849
Your ride may have been involved
in an incident Saturday night.
397
00:15:54,208 --> 00:15:56,119
An incident?
What, like an accident?
398
00:15:56,177 --> 00:15:57,986
ED: You give somebody named
Henry the keys to it?
399
00:15:58,046 --> 00:15:59,320
Henry Williams.
400
00:15:59,380 --> 00:16:01,382
Henry was seen
driving your Lexus.
401
00:16:01,449 --> 00:16:02,894
I let him drive
my car sometimes.
402
00:16:02,950 --> 00:16:04,861
But I still don't understand
what this is about.
403
00:16:04,919 --> 00:16:06,193
A woman was shot.
404
00:16:06,254 --> 00:16:07,597
Killed with a .45.
405
00:16:08,389 --> 00:16:10,198
Whoa, whoa.
Slow down there.
406
00:16:10,658 --> 00:16:12,331
You say Henry shot some lady?
407
00:16:12,593 --> 00:16:13,731
ED: Her name
is Dena Meredith.
408
00:16:13,795 --> 00:16:15,172
BRISCOE: She was pregnant.
409
00:16:15,830 --> 00:16:18,401
There's no way Henry shot her.
How do you know that?
410
00:16:18,466 --> 00:16:20,207
Because I know Henry.
411
00:16:20,435 --> 00:16:21,573
Don't take this the wrong way,
412
00:16:21,636 --> 00:16:24,082
but where were you Saturday
night around 8:00?
413
00:16:24,138 --> 00:16:26,778
I was at the Excelsior. I had
a party for some friends.
414
00:16:27,141 --> 00:16:28,518
Left around midnight.
415
00:16:28,576 --> 00:16:30,613
That's kind of late. Didn't you
have a game on Sunday afternoon?
416
00:16:30,678 --> 00:16:32,988
I don't need much sleep
to sit on the bench.
417
00:16:33,181 --> 00:16:34,922
I've been having some
problems with my foot.
418
00:16:35,917 --> 00:16:37,863
So, uh, where do we find Henry?

00:16:50,731 --> 00:16:52,938
Talented girl.
You could do worse.
423
00:16:55,970 --> 00:16:57,540
Yeah, Chris called me.
424
00:16:57,605 --> 00:16:59,846
Said y'all was busting about
some girl getting killed.
425
00:16:59,907 --> 00:17:01,318
I don't know
a damn thing about it.
426
00:17:01,375 --> 00:17:02,649
That's not what
we heard, Henry.
427
00:17:02,710 --> 00:17:03,711
Well, you heard wrong.
428
00:17:04,111 --> 00:17:06,091
Oh, so you weren't at Lot
61 on Saturday night?
429
00:17:06,147 --> 00:17:07,421
Me and a hundred other people.
430
00:17:07,482 --> 00:17:10,190
The other 100 didn't drive
away with Dena Meredith.
431
00:17:10,251 --> 00:17:11,321
Neither did I.
432
00:17:11,385 --> 00:17:12,864
Man, I don't even know
who you're talking about.
433
00:17:12,920 --> 00:17:14,399
You know what, Henry?
We believe you.
434
00:17:14,455 --> 00:17:16,662
But you're going to have
to convince our lieutenant.
435

So, come on. You want
to go with us now.
436

If that's what it's gonna take.
437
00:17:23,097 --> 00:17:24,337
I'll follow you.
438
00:17:24,398 --> 00:17:26,173
No, not this trip, Henry.
439
00:17:26,234 --> 00:17:28,976
Yeah, Detective Green,

ED: Narcotics. Six
arrests, two convictions.
442
00:17:34,575 --> 00:17:36,612
That's just business, man. Ain't
got nothing to do with no murder.
443
00:17:36,677 --> 00:17:38,748
Yeah, but getting in a car
with a woman who ends up dead
444
00:17:38,813 --> 00:17:40,019
has plenty to do with it.
445
00:17:40,081 --> 00:17:43,426
Look, man, I told you, I drove
off from Lot 61 by myself.
446

Your witness is mistaken,
all right?
447

You can't hold me on that.

BRISCOE: Yeah?
What about this?
449
00:17:47,822 --> 00:17:50,302
Your license was suspended
two months ago.
450
00:17:50,358 --> 00:17:51,428
What's that got to
do with anything?
451
00:17:51,492 --> 00:17:54,837
Driving without a license
is a parole violation.
452
00:17:55,096 --> 00:17:56,404
Sit down, Henry.
453
00:17:56,464 --> 00:17:57,465

agreement for the Lexus.

It's from the
People's Bank of Harlem
460
00:18:10,912 --> 00:18:13,984
BRISCOE: Dena Meredith
was the loan officer.
461
00:18:14,048 --> 00:18:15,618
But I guess you
already knew that.
462

00:18:20,721 --> 00:18:22,530
You're saying this
might be work related?
464
00:18:22,590 --> 00:18:23,933
JACK: We don't
know that yet.
465
00:18:23,991 --> 00:18:26,767
What we do know is that there's a
connection between the car loan
466
00:18:26,828 --> 00:18:28,466
that Dena made to Chris Cody
467
00:18:28,529 --> 00:18:30,702
and a drug dealer
named Henry Williams.
468
00:18:30,765 --> 00:18:34,178
Whatever Dena may have done,
whatever she was involved with,
469
00:18:35,303 --> 00:18:37,715
she certainly got more
than she deserved.
470
00:18:39,574 --> 00:18:41,952
What does he mean, "What
she was involved with"?
471
00:18:42,009 --> 00:18:43,454
What's he talking about?
472
00:18:44,312 --> 00:18:45,985
I tried to tell her
to be careful,
473
00:18:46,047 --> 00:18:48,550
that these people were out of her
league, but she wouldn't listen.
474
00:18:48,616 --> 00:18:49,754
What people?
475
00:18:50,751 --> 00:18:52,025
Chris Cody.
476
00:18:52,553 --> 00:18:53,964
What about Chris Cody?
477
00:18:54,589 --> 00:18:57,365
Dena was writing loans for him.
Him and his friend.
478
00:18:57,592 --> 00:18:58,832
Henry Williams?
479
00:18:58,893 --> 00:19:01,840
She told me she was setting
up businesses for Cody.
480
00:19:01,896 --> 00:19:04,399
That he was putting money
back into the community.
481
00:19:04,465 --> 00:19:05,842
It was drug money.
482
00:19:07,301 --> 00:19:09,941
She started at that bank
right out of high school.
483
00:19:10,004 --> 00:19:11,574
This guy was famous.
484
00:19:12,106 --> 00:19:13,915
She got dragged
into the whole trip.
485
00:19:13,975 --> 00:19:17,980
You know, parties,
clothes, even the drugs.
486
00:19:18,045 --> 00:19:19,456
Dena never did any damn drugs.
487
00:19:19,513 --> 00:19:21,459
Miles, she was my best friend.
488
00:19:22,450 --> 00:19:24,623
Why didn't you come
forward before?
489
00:19:24,685 --> 00:19:26,528
Because I thought
what everyone thought.
490
00:19:26,587 --> 00:19:28,726
That this was
just a freak thing.
491
00:19:28,990 --> 00:19:31,027
You know, a carjacking
or something.
492
00:19:33,327 --> 00:19:35,034
He was famous, Miles.
493
00:19:38,032 --> 00:19:41,013
According to Cheryl Treadwell, Dena Meredith
processed a number of loans for Cody.
494
00:19:41,068 --> 00:19:44,481
But almost all the money ended
up, one way or another,
495
00:19:44,538 --> 00:19:45,949
in the hands of Henry Williams.
496
00:19:46,007 --> 00:19:47,247
To finance what?
497
00:19:47,308 --> 00:19:48,810
A variety
of start-up businesses,
498
00:19:48,876 --> 00:19:50,719
basically cashing in
on Cody's name.
499
00:19:50,778 --> 00:19:52,018
Any of them legit?
500
00:19:52,079 --> 00:19:55,151
Williams has a long sheet
for narcotics convictions.
501
00:19:55,216 --> 00:19:57,093
I'd say legit's a stretch.
502
00:19:57,151 --> 00:19:59,529
What about the boyfriend?
The bank's manager?
503
00:19:59,587 --> 00:20:01,191
He relied on her judgment.
504
00:20:01,923 --> 00:20:05,461
Well, let's suppose Williams
used the money to finance drugs.
505
00:20:06,694 --> 00:20:09,038
The question is, did Chris
Cody know about it?
506
00:20:11,065 --> 00:20:12,271
The loans Chris made
were simply the case
507
00:20:12,333 --> 00:20:15,405
of one friend lending
a helping hand to another.
508
00:20:15,870 --> 00:20:19,340
You're telling me your client was unaware
of the background of Henry Williams?
509
00:20:19,407 --> 00:20:20,909
They're friends.
Boyhood friends.
510
00:20:20,975 --> 00:20:22,579
Chris wanted
to get him started.
511
00:20:22,910 --> 00:20:24,287
If it hadn't been
for basketball,
512
00:20:24,345 --> 00:20:25,983
I might've been
just like Henry.
513
00:20:26,047 --> 00:20:27,617
There are a lot of people
who don't play basketball
514
00:20:27,682 --> 00:20:29,423
who don't wind up
selling drugs, Mr. Cody.
515
00:20:29,984 --> 00:20:33,488
Well, I think the point here is that
my client hasn't done any wrong.
516
00:20:34,021 --> 00:20:36,297
Then why lie to the police
about knowing Dena Meredith?
517
00:20:37,258 --> 00:20:38,362
That was my fault.
518
00:20:38,426 --> 00:20:40,030
I told Chris that
he should tell them
519
00:20:40,094 --> 00:20:42,802
he had no knowledge
of Ms. Meredith's death.
520
00:20:42,863 --> 00:20:44,501
That was a miscommunication.
521
00:20:44,999 --> 00:20:47,104
And for that I take
full responsibility.
522
00:20:48,636 --> 00:20:50,274
Then you did know
Ms. Meredith?
523
00:20:50,504 --> 00:20:52,950
I met her at the bank,
arranging a loan for Henry.
524
00:20:53,007 --> 00:20:54,714
Chris and his business
managers did a number
525
00:20:54,775 --> 00:20:57,381
of substantial transactions
through Ms. Meredith.
526
00:20:57,845 --> 00:20:59,654
And what was all
this money for?
527
00:20:59,880 --> 00:21:02,622
CHRIS: Honestly, I didn't
pay much attention.
528
00:21:02,683 --> 00:21:04,685
I mean, Henry would
pitch some ideas,
529
00:21:04,752 --> 00:21:06,060
I'd run 'em by my managers.
530
00:21:06,120 --> 00:21:08,532
If they were good,
I gave him the money.
531
00:21:09,924 --> 00:21:12,461
I was just trying to put
something back in the community.
532
00:21:15,096 --> 00:21:16,507
Just so we're clear,
533
00:21:16,564 --> 00:21:19,340
so there aren't any
more miscommunications,
534
00:21:19,400 --> 00:21:21,038
you're saying
you have no knowledge
535
00:21:21,102 --> 00:21:23,548
why Henry Williams might
have killed Dena Meredith?
536
00:21:23,604 --> 00:21:25,845
I'm saying I don't
think Henry did it.
537
00:21:28,409 --> 00:21:31,322
Over the last two years, Cody
gave Williams over $300,000.
538
00:21:31,379 --> 00:21:34,155
All that money went through Dena
Meredith as business loans,
539
00:21:34,215 --> 00:21:36,217
which Cody's accountants
then wrote off.
540
00:21:36,283 --> 00:21:38,320
So, he has the taxpayers
footing half the bill.
541
00:21:38,386 --> 00:21:39,729
It gets better.
542
00:21:39,787 --> 00:21:40,857
When the bank came to Cody
543
00:21:40,921 --> 00:21:42,332
to make good on
some of the loans,
544
00:21:42,390 --> 00:21:44,028
he claimed financial hardship.
545
00:21:44,091 --> 00:21:45,502
With his contract?
546
00:21:45,559 --> 00:21:48,096
It's in its last year, and
negotiations for a new one
547
00:21:48,162 --> 00:21:49,368
haven't been going well.
548
00:21:49,430 --> 00:21:50,636
Stress fracture.
549
00:21:50,698 --> 00:21:51,836
According to his
medical records,
550
00:21:51,899 --> 00:21:53,606
the doctor put a pin
in his right foot.
551
00:21:53,668 --> 00:21:56,581
But there's also something
else on the record.
552
00:21:57,438 --> 00:21:59,315
He was in a drug program.
553
00:21:59,373 --> 00:22:01,683
He rehabbed while he was
out with the foot injury.
554
00:22:01,742 --> 00:22:04,154
That's how he and the team
kept if from the league.
555
00:22:10,484 --> 00:22:13,522
Drug use by a star player isn't exactly
the type of PR the team's looking for.
556
00:22:13,587 --> 00:22:14,725
So you didn't report it?
557
00:22:14,789 --> 00:22:17,599
Well, we have to work closely
with the Player's Association,
558
00:22:17,658 --> 00:22:21,367
and the rules allowing us to demand
a drug test are very specific.
559
00:22:21,429 --> 00:22:25,070
Without absolute proof, the union
won't let us near their people.
560
00:22:25,132 --> 00:22:27,237
So why did Cody agree
to a drug program
561
00:22:27,301 --> 00:22:28,644
if you couldn't
prove he was using?
562
00:22:28,702 --> 00:22:31,273
Well, A, if he didn't participate,
we would have gone to the league.
563
00:22:31,338 --> 00:22:34,046
And B, we showed him reports about
the people he was hanging out with.
564
00:22:34,108 --> 00:22:37,453
People we considered to be less
than, uh, savory characters.
565
00:22:37,511 --> 00:22:38,751
Henry Williams.
566
00:22:39,013 --> 00:22:42,256
After his foot surgery, the GM
told him that if he didn't rehab,
567
00:22:42,316 --> 00:22:44,956
he'd be a salary
cap casualty next season.
568
00:22:45,019 --> 00:22:48,728
These people were throwing, uh, late
night parties, providing hookers.
569
00:22:48,789 --> 00:22:51,235
Then we got word about a
banger named Marcus Cole.
570
00:22:51,559 --> 00:22:54,563
When he showed up,
we really got scared.
571
00:22:54,628 --> 00:22:55,698
Scared of what?
572
00:22:55,763 --> 00:22:56,969
That's his sheet.
573
00:22:58,332 --> 00:23:00,972
Twelve years for homicide.
Six for drug possession.
574
00:23:01,035 --> 00:23:02,309
Currently on parole.
575
00:23:03,037 --> 00:23:05,313
Certainly be my first choice
for an invite to a party.
576
00:23:05,372 --> 00:23:06,783
Maybe not enough
for a conviction,
577
00:23:06,841 --> 00:23:08,752
but certainly enough
for a conversation.
578
00:23:15,015 --> 00:23:16,289
(BASKETBALL GAME
PLAYING ON TV)
579
00:23:17,017 --> 00:23:18,894
He's in the living room.
580
00:23:25,960 --> 00:23:27,530
What you watching, Marcus?
581
00:23:31,232 --> 00:23:33,678
Don't get up on our account.
Come on.
582
00:23:34,435 --> 00:23:35,914
Hey, what's all
this about, huh?
583
00:23:35,970 --> 00:23:37,847
We're from the Neilsen ratings.
584
00:23:39,707 --> 00:23:40,811
Look, man, I don't know
nothing about nothing.
585
00:23:40,875 --> 00:23:44,982
See, we already know that. 'Cause if
you did know anything about anything,
586
00:23:45,045 --> 00:23:49,255
you'd know not to keep a
semi-automatic .45 caliber pistol
587
00:23:49,316 --> 00:23:51,421
in a shoe box under your bed.
588
00:23:51,752 --> 00:23:54,995
My office is running the gun
through ballistics as we speak.
589
00:23:55,256 --> 00:23:56,599
Now, this is just a wild guess,
590
00:23:56,657 --> 00:23:58,796
but we think that's the gun that
was used to murder Dena Meredith.
591
00:24:00,194 --> 00:24:02,606
Now, see, y'all ain't
got no probable cause
592
00:24:02,663 --> 00:24:04,336
to be searching
my stuff like that.
593
00:24:05,032 --> 00:24:06,943
That's poison
from the fruit tree.
594
00:24:09,303 --> 00:24:11,180
Remember Sing Sing,
Mr. Cole?
595
00:24:11,772 --> 00:24:13,843
Specifically the day
you got out?
596
00:24:15,075 --> 00:24:17,180
That's your signature
on a release form
597
00:24:17,244 --> 00:24:20,691
consenting to searches of your
person and your residence
598
00:24:20,748 --> 00:24:23,058
at the request
of your parole officer.
599
00:24:23,551 --> 00:24:25,497
And guess who me and my partner
600
00:24:25,553 --> 00:24:27,499
spoke to before we dropped by.
601
00:24:28,289 --> 00:24:32,032
Game's over, Mr. Cole. And once
that ballistic report comes in,
602
00:24:32,092 --> 00:24:33,935
I don't need you anymore.
603
00:24:34,261 --> 00:24:35,740
It's as simple as that.
604
00:24:39,033 --> 00:24:40,273
(SIGHS)
605
00:24:41,302 --> 00:24:42,940
So what you gonna
do for me, huh?
606
00:24:43,604 --> 00:24:45,845
I mean, it's four letters no
matter how you look at it.
607
00:24:45,906 --> 00:24:47,647
There's a difference
between life
608
00:24:48,075 --> 00:24:50,749
and life with no
possibility of parole.
609
00:24:50,811 --> 00:24:52,449
In another 25 years,
don't you at least
610
00:24:52,513 --> 00:24:53,890
want the chance to sign
a piece of paper like that?
611
00:25:00,121 --> 00:25:01,191
Twenty.
612
00:25:01,255 --> 00:25:03,428
It depends on how good
the information is.
613
00:25:03,724 --> 00:25:06,034
Oh, it's good.
It's real good.
614
00:25:08,028 --> 00:25:11,032
According to Cole, the murder
was orchestrated by Chris Cody.
615
00:25:11,098 --> 00:25:12,668
Why, in God's name?
616
00:25:13,167 --> 00:25:15,408
Claims not to know.
What he will say is,
617
00:25:15,469 --> 00:25:17,346
that he was approached
by Henry Williams
618
00:25:17,404 --> 00:25:19,941
and paid $18,000
on Cody's behalf.
619
00:25:20,407 --> 00:25:21,886
Do we have any corroboration?
620
00:25:21,942 --> 00:25:24,946
There was an $18,000 withdrawal
from one of Cody's bank accounts
621
00:25:25,012 --> 00:25:26,548
two days before the murder.
622
00:25:27,181 --> 00:25:28,387
Let's bring him in.
623
00:25:28,449 --> 00:25:30,292
I've already
telephoned his lawyer
624
00:25:30,351 --> 00:25:33,264
and the team's general counsel
to arrange a surrender.
625
00:25:33,354 --> 00:25:34,355
Good.
626
00:25:34,421 --> 00:25:36,765
I'd like him processed with as
little fanfare as possible.
627
00:25:36,824 --> 00:25:37,928
(KNOCKING ON DOOR)
628
00:25:37,992 --> 00:25:40,029
I just spoke to the
team's practice facility.
629
00:25:40,094 --> 00:25:41,596
Cody didn't show up
this morning.
630
00:25:41,662 --> 00:25:43,369
Briscoe and Green are
checking his apartment.
631
00:25:43,430 --> 00:25:44,875
LEWIN: Notify the airlines.
632
00:25:44,932 --> 00:25:46,240
They're already on it.
633
00:25:47,534 --> 00:25:48,535
(SIGHS)
634
00:25:49,103 --> 00:25:50,946
So much for lack of fanfare.
635
00:25:52,273 --> 00:25:55,345
The morning doorman at his building
saw him leave around 6:30.
636
00:25:55,409 --> 00:25:56,513
The police checked
with the garage
637
00:25:56,577 --> 00:25:57,851
where Cody keeps his cars.
638
00:25:57,911 --> 00:26:00,289
He ordered his Jaguar
around the same time.
639
00:26:00,347 --> 00:26:02,327
The attendant saw him
get in and drive away.
640
00:26:02,383 --> 00:26:04,260
They put out his plates,
make and model.
641
00:26:05,285 --> 00:26:07,993
I'm asking for your
cooperation, Mr. Garnett.
642
00:26:08,055 --> 00:26:13,164
I can't vouch for his safety if he doesn't
peaceably surrender to authorities.
643
00:26:13,227 --> 00:26:15,229
I told you, I spoke
with him last night.
644
00:26:15,295 --> 00:26:18,606
Now, obviously, I can't divulge
the substance of our discussions,
645
00:26:18,666 --> 00:26:20,236
but he seemed fine.
646
00:26:20,434 --> 00:26:21,879
And you have no idea
where he'd go?
647
00:26:21,935 --> 00:26:22,936
None.
648
00:26:23,003 --> 00:26:24,641
I'm telling you that as
an officer of the court.
649
00:26:24,705 --> 00:26:26,150
I have...
Yes, I'm here.
650
00:26:26,707 --> 00:26:27,879
Mmm-hmm.
651
00:26:28,676 --> 00:26:30,349
Mmm, okay.
All right, thanks.
652
00:26:30,677 --> 00:26:31,781
He's at his mother's house.
653
00:26:31,845 --> 00:26:33,483
Well, uh, at least I think so.
654
00:26:33,547 --> 00:26:37,017
He picked up a girlfriend,
a Charlene Bettie,
655
00:26:37,084 --> 00:26:39,928
at her home in Brooklyn
around 7:30 this morning.
656
00:26:39,987 --> 00:26:41,193
Where's his mother live?
657
00:26:41,255 --> 00:26:42,598
Riverdale.
658
00:26:43,424 --> 00:26:45,870
Is he still inside? Yeah. Two
of my men knocked on the door.
659
00:26:45,926 --> 00:26:48,202
Saw an upstairs window
curtain move, then nothing.
660
00:26:48,562 --> 00:26:50,235
Couple of minutes later,
we heard woman scream.
661
00:26:50,297 --> 00:26:52,800
We were about to go in,
when she came out.
662
00:26:53,233 --> 00:26:54,678
Charlene?
Yeah.
663
00:26:54,735 --> 00:26:55,839
What happened?
664
00:26:55,903 --> 00:26:58,179
(SOBBING) He's just...
He's freaking out.
665
00:26:58,238 --> 00:27:00,616
I thought we were going for a
ride in the country or something.
666
00:27:00,674 --> 00:27:02,051
But then he drove here.
667
00:27:02,409 --> 00:27:04,787
The cops showed up, and he...
ED: It's okay.
668
00:27:04,845 --> 00:27:06,381
Do you know where
he is in the house?
669
00:27:06,447 --> 00:27:08,449
In the upstairs
bedroom, I think.
670
00:27:08,515 --> 00:27:09,892
Or at least he was...
671
00:27:09,950 --> 00:27:11,452
And he's got a gun.
672
00:27:12,486 --> 00:27:14,864
I think he's going to kill himself.
I really do.
673
00:27:15,055 --> 00:27:16,932
Thanks.
It's gonna be okay.
674
00:27:18,258 --> 00:27:19,669
Has anybody tried
to contact him?
675
00:27:19,727 --> 00:27:21,536
Yeah, I tried to call him.
He didn't pick up.
676
00:27:21,595 --> 00:27:23,165
Neighbor says his
mother's down south.
677
00:27:23,230 --> 00:27:25,141
All right, look, we don't want
to step on anybody's toes here,
678
00:27:25,199 --> 00:27:27,736
but we know this guy. You mind if
we try to start a conversation?
679
00:27:27,801 --> 00:27:30,509
Hey, if you're volunteering,
I'm all for happy endings.
680
00:27:30,704 --> 00:27:32,149
Now, come on,
I'll take you inside.
681
00:27:44,084 --> 00:27:45,256

682
00:27:45,619 --> 00:27:46,620
Chris?
683

It's Detectives Green and Briscoe.
You remember us?
684
00:27:50,190 --> 00:27:51,931
CHRIS: Don't come up here.
685
00:27:51,992 --> 00:27:53,437
You all right, Chris?
686
00:27:56,096 --> 00:27:57,803
Hey, Chris, we're coming
up to talk, all right?
687
00:27:57,865 --> 00:27:58,969
CHRIS: I said don't!
688
00:27:59,033 --> 00:28:00,876
Just to talk, that's all.

00:28:04,371 --> 00:28:05,645

00:28:08,008 --> 00:28:09,180
Chris...
691
00:28:10,310 --> 00:28:11,550
You okay?
692
00:28:11,712 --> 00:28:12,918
(SOBBING) Stay away from me.
693
00:28:12,980 --> 00:28:14,084
Easy, easy.
694
00:28:16,850 --> 00:28:18,625
I never meant
for any of it to happen.
695
00:28:18,685 --> 00:28:19,891
We know you didn't.
696
00:28:19,953 --> 00:28:22,490
Just put the gun down, Chris,
and nobody'll get hurt.
697
00:28:22,556 --> 00:28:24,297
Has anybody talked to Henry?
698
00:28:24,358 --> 00:28:25,598
'Cause he can
set this straight.
699
00:28:25,659 --> 00:28:27,332
We can do that, man.
We can talk to Henry.
700
00:28:27,394 --> 00:28:29,533
But first, we gotta
take care of this.
701
00:28:29,596 --> 00:28:30,973
Look, you don't
understand, man.
702
00:28:31,031 --> 00:28:33,011
I gotta set this
straight! I gotta!
703
00:28:36,703 --> 00:28:38,182
I tried...
704
00:28:38,372 --> 00:28:39,976
I tried to tell her.
705
00:28:43,076 --> 00:28:45,249
Don't! Don't!
Don't do that, Chris.
706
00:28:45,312 --> 00:28:47,690
You got a lot of people
cheering for you every night.
707
00:28:47,748 --> 00:28:48,886
You got a lot
of fans out there.
708
00:28:48,949 --> 00:28:50,121
You don't want to
go out like this.
709
00:28:50,184 --> 00:28:53,631
Think about the kids, Chris.
The ones who wear your number.
710
00:29:07,568 --> 00:29:08,672
(SIGHING)
711
00:29:09,002 --> 00:29:10,811
All right.
I'm sorry, man.
712
00:29:18,545 --> 00:29:20,616
My client wants to
set the record straight.
713
00:29:20,681 --> 00:29:22,888
He had a chance once before.
He knows that.
714
00:29:22,950 --> 00:29:24,452
I won't promise anything.
715
00:29:27,321 --> 00:29:28,493
Have you talked to Henry?
716
00:29:28,555 --> 00:29:30,193
JACK: He's being
produced for arraignment.
717
00:29:30,257 --> 00:29:32,066
He hasn't been interviewed yet.
718
00:29:32,125 --> 00:29:34,662
Look, this is hard, man.
Henry and me...
719
00:29:39,099 --> 00:29:40,772
He owed some people money.
720
00:29:40,834 --> 00:29:42,006
Money for what?
721
00:29:42,069 --> 00:29:43,241
Drugs.
722
00:29:43,303 --> 00:29:44,976
Now, I don't know their names,
723
00:29:45,038 --> 00:29:46,915
but they fronted him
for some coke.
724
00:29:46,974 --> 00:29:49,352
And I was supposed to give him
the money, only I couldn't.
725
00:29:49,409 --> 00:29:51,480
Dena said the bank wouldn't
give me any more loans.
726
00:29:51,545 --> 00:29:53,081
What about your cars?
Your co-op?
727
00:29:53,146 --> 00:29:54,216
Look, it's all borrowed.
728
00:29:55,115 --> 00:29:56,719
Borrowed time, my mom said.
729
00:29:58,151 --> 00:30:00,461
Look, anyway,
Henry didn't believe me.
730
00:30:00,521 --> 00:30:02,432
He thought I was trying
to back out on the deal.
731
00:30:02,723 --> 00:30:05,533
So he said he would make
Dena give him the loan.
732
00:30:05,759 --> 00:30:09,332
Marcus Cole says it was you who
wanted Dena Meredith killed.
733
00:30:09,396 --> 00:30:11,034
I had no reason to kill Dena.
734
00:30:11,098 --> 00:30:14,307
Unless it was to silence
her about the drug money.
735
00:30:14,701 --> 00:30:16,908
$18,000 was withdrawn
from your account
736
00:30:16,970 --> 00:30:18,313
two days before her murder.
737
00:30:18,372 --> 00:30:21,546
Henry said the dealers would
wait for the rest of their money
738
00:30:21,608 --> 00:30:23,451
if he could give them
the 18 grand,
739
00:30:23,510 --> 00:30:24,921
so that's what I did.
740
00:30:24,978 --> 00:30:26,355
But that's all I did.
741
00:30:28,315 --> 00:30:30,454
You believe him?
Who knows?
742
00:30:31,818 --> 00:30:33,695
The drug dealers have no names,
743
00:30:33,754 --> 00:30:35,995
and Dena Meredith
certainly isn't around
744
00:30:36,056 --> 00:30:37,865
to help us figure it all out.
745
00:30:37,925 --> 00:30:39,427
Briscoe and Green
talked to Williams.
746
00:30:39,493 --> 00:30:40,995
He had nothing to say.
747
00:30:41,194 --> 00:30:43,868
That was before his best friend
sold him down the river.
748
00:30:45,098 --> 00:30:47,135
I already told you, I
ain't got nothing to say.
749
00:30:47,534 --> 00:30:48,535
That's too bad,
750
00:30:48,602 --> 00:30:51,378
because Marcus Cole and Chris
Cody have a lot to say.
751
00:30:52,172 --> 00:30:55,278
Cody claims that you killed Dena
Meredith over some drug money.
752
00:30:55,342 --> 00:30:57,618
I assume this is
all off the record?
753
00:30:57,911 --> 00:30:59,322
Chris is my brother.
754
00:30:59,379 --> 00:31:01,017
JACK: He rolled on you,
Mr. Williams.
755
00:31:01,281 --> 00:31:03,283
He said he refused
to give you money
756
00:31:03,350 --> 00:31:04,988
you needed to
pay off a drug buy.
757
00:31:05,852 --> 00:31:06,853
That's a lie.
758
00:31:06,920 --> 00:31:09,594
We also have a witness that
puts you with Cole and Dena
759
00:31:09,656 --> 00:31:11,226
just hours before her death.
760
00:31:13,193 --> 00:31:14,604
Are you being straight with me?
761
00:31:14,661 --> 00:31:17,335
Chris told you that this was
about me and some drugs?
762
00:31:17,397 --> 00:31:19,138
He's letting you take the fall.
763
00:31:19,199 --> 00:31:22,203
He's counting on a jury not
believing a word you say.
764
00:31:23,003 --> 00:31:24,448
Chris wouldn't do that.
765
00:31:24,505 --> 00:31:25,677
He already has.
766
00:31:30,844 --> 00:31:34,189
Damn. Chris, he's got
no kind of character, man.
767
00:31:35,249 --> 00:31:36,421
All he could ever
do was play ball.
768
00:31:43,490 --> 00:31:44,901
If I, um...
769
00:31:45,158 --> 00:31:46,899
If I tell you the truth,
what happens?
770
00:31:47,461 --> 00:31:49,236
Twenty-to-life,
same as Cole.
771
00:31:49,496 --> 00:31:51,567
And Chris, he... He gonna
be up in there with me?
772
00:31:51,631 --> 00:31:54,043
You'll be waving goodbye
to him when you get out.
773
00:31:57,905 --> 00:32:00,181
This ain't got nothing
to do with no drugs.
774
00:32:01,208 --> 00:32:03,711
Chris is the father
of that girl's baby.
775
00:32:06,713 --> 00:32:10,126
According to Williams, Cody
didn't want to pay child support.
776
00:32:10,183 --> 00:32:12,185
Professional athlete
making millions.
777
00:32:12,386 --> 00:32:14,662
In his mind, murder
was a viable option.
778
00:32:15,021 --> 00:32:17,558
It's all part of the Chris
Cody entitlement program.
779
00:32:17,624 --> 00:32:19,570
He's gotten by on
talent his whole life.
780
00:32:19,626 --> 00:32:21,902
As long as he performed
on the court,
781
00:32:21,962 --> 00:32:24,670
he always had people ready
to clean up his mess.
782
00:32:24,731 --> 00:32:26,472
Now, I don't think the
responsibility for this
783
00:32:26,533 --> 00:32:28,137
rests entirely
on his shoulders.
784
00:32:28,201 --> 00:32:30,203
I think that's exactly
where it belongs.
785
00:32:31,204 --> 00:32:35,118
You know, the fact is, a ghetto
kid turned pro sells tickets.
786
00:32:36,176 --> 00:32:39,885
The thug life image, that's
what gets him on ESPN,
787
00:32:40,580 --> 00:32:42,184
that's what gets him
his endorsements.
788
00:32:42,249 --> 00:32:43,353
So...
789
00:32:43,450 --> 00:32:45,430
So we encourage
it as a society,
790
00:32:45,485 --> 00:32:47,624
and then clobber him when
it spills off the court.
791
00:32:47,954 --> 00:32:50,696
A big part of sports
is entertainment.
792
00:32:50,757 --> 00:32:54,967
An athlete forgets his image
is just that, an image.
793
00:32:55,028 --> 00:32:56,371
The fault's his, not society's.
794
00:32:58,332 --> 00:32:59,675
What about these loans?
795
00:32:59,733 --> 00:33:02,236
Obviously for drugs. Had
nothing to do with the murder.
796
00:33:02,302 --> 00:33:03,804
You can prove the baby's his?
797
00:33:03,870 --> 00:33:06,043
JACK: Miles Hawthorne
has agreed to cooperate.
798
00:33:06,106 --> 00:33:09,212
We'll confirm paternity with a
DNA test as soon as he comes in.
799
00:33:13,747 --> 00:33:14,817
Chris Cody hired
me to kill her.
800
00:33:14,881 --> 00:33:15,951
Why?
801
00:33:16,183 --> 00:33:18,094
Chris said she was
pregnant with his baby.
802
00:33:18,151 --> 00:33:20,188
See, she called Chris
up the day before,
803
00:33:20,253 --> 00:33:22,290
said she needed to talk
to him about the kid.
804
00:33:22,356 --> 00:33:23,357
I guess to make arrangements,
805
00:33:23,423 --> 00:33:25,403
being that the due date
was near and all.
806
00:33:25,459 --> 00:33:27,234
That's why he wanted me
to kill her that night.
807
00:33:27,828 --> 00:33:28,966
He said she was gonna run back
808
00:33:29,029 --> 00:33:31,236
and tell her family about
the baby and what not,
809
00:33:31,298 --> 00:33:32,470
and by then it'd be too late.
810
00:33:32,699 --> 00:33:34,042
JACK: Too late for what?
811
00:33:34,601 --> 00:33:35,841
He'd have to pay.
812
00:33:36,136 --> 00:33:38,480
I mean, he already had that
one kid down in Florida.
813
00:33:38,839 --> 00:33:40,477
Said he wasn't
gonna pay for two.
814
00:33:41,375 --> 00:33:43,013
And you agreed to kill her?
815
00:33:43,143 --> 00:33:45,680
At first, you know,
I just kind of laughed.
816
00:33:45,879 --> 00:33:47,950
'Cause it's like, I know Chris.
817
00:33:48,115 --> 00:33:49,458
Known him since
we was little kids.
818
00:33:50,083 --> 00:33:52,029
Chris has never really
been the type to be down
819
00:33:52,085 --> 00:33:53,462
for no real gangster stuff.
820
00:33:53,887 --> 00:33:55,958
I mean, he could play
the part and all of that,
821
00:33:56,023 --> 00:33:58,526
but deep down inside, I didn't
think he had it in him.
822
00:34:00,460 --> 00:34:01,632
But he did.
823
00:34:02,963 --> 00:34:04,033
He sure did.
824
00:34:06,433 --> 00:34:07,571
Nothing further.
825
00:34:08,635 --> 00:34:10,012
(CLEARING THROAT)
826
00:34:12,673 --> 00:34:15,847
You're a convicted drug dealer
facing a murder charge?
827
00:34:16,376 --> 00:34:17,514
That's right.
828
00:34:17,577 --> 00:34:19,420
And you were offered
a plea bargain
829
00:34:19,479 --> 00:34:21,755
in order to secure
your testimony today?
830
00:34:21,815 --> 00:34:23,021
Twenty-to-life.
831
00:34:23,316 --> 00:34:25,922
You must've had something pretty
important they wanted, huh, Henry?
832
00:34:25,986 --> 00:34:27,897
Say, like a pro
basketball player.
833
00:34:28,388 --> 00:34:29,458
Objection.
834
00:34:29,523 --> 00:34:30,866
Sustained.
835
00:34:31,691 --> 00:34:34,570
That money Chris gave you,
that 18,000,
836
00:34:34,628 --> 00:34:37,472
that wasn't the only money
he ever gave you, was it?
837
00:34:38,031 --> 00:34:40,307
He'd given you money
before to buy drugs.
838
00:34:40,367 --> 00:34:41,402
That's right.
839
00:34:41,468 --> 00:34:45,780
Only this time, this last
time, he said no, didn't he?
840
00:34:46,540 --> 00:34:48,076
I don't know what
you're talking about.
841
00:34:48,141 --> 00:34:50,018
Well, he cut you
off, Mr. Williams.
842
00:34:50,310 --> 00:34:51,550
Only you still owed money.
843
00:34:51,611 --> 00:34:54,421
Money for drugs you'd been
fronted, isn't that right?
844
00:34:55,615 --> 00:34:58,858
You killed this woman because my client
wouldn't give you any more money,
845
00:34:58,919 --> 00:34:59,989
isn't that right?
846
00:35:00,554 --> 00:35:03,535
We killed her because
Chris asked me to.
847
00:35:05,358 --> 00:35:06,428
You were the shooter?
848
00:35:06,493 --> 00:35:07,494
Yeah, that's right.
849
00:35:08,028 --> 00:35:09,405
How much were you paid?
850
00:35:09,463 --> 00:35:10,737
Eighteen thousand.
851
00:35:11,731 --> 00:35:13,438
How was the murder committed?
852
00:35:14,134 --> 00:35:16,978
Henry set it up for her to
come to this bar downtown.
853
00:35:17,037 --> 00:35:19,517
When she got there, she
got in her car with me,
854
00:35:19,573 --> 00:35:22,349
we followed Henry to where we
told her Chris was gonna be at.
855
00:35:22,409 --> 00:35:23,649
Where was that?
856
00:35:24,244 --> 00:35:25,882
This street up in the Heights.
857
00:35:26,446 --> 00:35:28,448
When we got there,
I put a gun to her head,
858
00:35:28,515 --> 00:35:29,994
told her to get in the trunk.
859
00:35:30,517 --> 00:35:31,996
Drove to this parking lot,
860
00:35:32,586 --> 00:35:33,929
opened the trunk up,
861
00:35:34,755 --> 00:35:35,825
put a cap in her,
862
00:35:36,690 --> 00:35:38,897
went to where Chris was at
and told him it was done.
863
00:35:38,959 --> 00:35:40,370
JACK: Where was Chris Cody?
864
00:35:40,427 --> 00:35:41,770
Party at a hotel.
865
00:35:41,828 --> 00:35:43,705
What was his reaction
when he was told?
866
00:35:44,164 --> 00:35:45,700
Well, he was cool with it.
867
00:35:52,239 --> 00:35:53,616
(CLEARING THROAT)
868
00:35:53,673 --> 00:35:56,176
Did you ever, uh,
talk with Chris Cody
869
00:35:56,243 --> 00:35:58,280
about killing Dena Meredith?
870
00:35:58,345 --> 00:35:59,619
I can't remember.
871
00:35:59,679 --> 00:36:03,821
Well, isn't it true that you never
personally spoke with Chris Cody?
872
00:36:03,984 --> 00:36:07,864
That all your information concerning
this murder came from Henry Williams?
873
00:36:08,388 --> 00:36:09,662
The 18 grand came from Chris.
874
00:36:09,723 --> 00:36:11,794
But it was Henry
who gave it to you.
875
00:36:11,858 --> 00:36:13,235
Henry's his boy.
876
00:36:13,293 --> 00:36:15,330
All right, now when
you said before that
877
00:36:15,395 --> 00:36:18,933
Chris was, uh, "Cool with
it," with the murder...
878
00:36:20,500 --> 00:36:22,207
Were you present
when he said that?
879
00:36:22,269 --> 00:36:24,112
Look, we was all at the party.
880
00:36:24,171 --> 00:36:27,243
Henry came up to me and told
me everything was cool.
881
00:36:27,540 --> 00:36:28,610
Oh.
882
00:36:29,543 --> 00:36:30,886
Nothing further.
883
00:36:33,146 --> 00:36:36,719
I first met Dena a couple
of years ago, at the bank.
884
00:36:37,517 --> 00:36:39,224
I went in with Henry
about a loan.
885
00:36:39,719 --> 00:36:42,461
And eventually you had
an intimate relationship.
886
00:36:42,522 --> 00:36:43,523
Yes.
887
00:36:43,590 --> 00:36:46,764
Did you know you were the
father of her baby, Chris?
888
00:36:46,960 --> 00:36:49,964
At the time?
No. I did not.
889
00:36:51,264 --> 00:36:52,937
I mean, of course,
I knew she was pregnant,
890
00:36:52,999 --> 00:36:55,036
but she was about to
marry another man.
891
00:36:55,802 --> 00:36:58,442
So, no, I had no idea.
892
00:36:59,673 --> 00:37:03,314
Now, what about what Henry
Williams told this jury?
893
00:37:03,376 --> 00:37:04,753
CHRIS: Henry and I
go way back.
894
00:37:05,545 --> 00:37:09,220
I've always helped him out,
which is why this is so hard,
895
00:37:09,282 --> 00:37:10,818
what he's trying to do to me.
896
00:37:13,320 --> 00:37:14,765
Maybe everyone was right.
897
00:37:15,622 --> 00:37:18,262
Maybe if I hadn't have bailed
him out all this time,
898
00:37:18,325 --> 00:37:20,828
maybe if I had made him
take responsibility for...
899
00:37:23,964 --> 00:37:25,102
I don't know.
900
00:37:27,434 --> 00:37:30,779
Did you have anything to do with
the death of Dena Meredith?
901
00:37:31,238 --> 00:37:33,548
Absolutely not.
902
00:37:39,980 --> 00:37:43,052
You're upset Mr. Williams
isn't taking responsibility
903
00:37:43,149 --> 00:37:45,527
for you, isn't that really it?
CHRIS: No.
904
00:37:45,585 --> 00:37:48,191
The way people have always
taken responsibility for you?
905
00:37:48,254 --> 00:37:50,097
I've taken care of myself.
906
00:37:50,156 --> 00:37:51,260
Have you?
907
00:37:51,324 --> 00:37:54,430
In college, didn't you get
your coach to bail you out,
908
00:37:54,494 --> 00:37:57,373
when your grades threatened
your basketball eligibility?
909
00:37:57,430 --> 00:37:58,465
That was different.
910
00:37:58,531 --> 00:38:00,477
And when you went
into drug rehab,
911
00:38:00,967 --> 00:38:04,312
you had your team cover that
up for you, didn't you?
912
00:38:04,371 --> 00:38:07,250
Object to the form of the question.
"Cover up"?
913
00:38:07,307 --> 00:38:08,752
Rephrase, Mr. McCoy.
914
00:38:10,510 --> 00:38:12,512
You had your team
915
00:38:13,313 --> 00:38:18,160
keep your drug use out of the
public eye, isn't that right?
916
00:38:18,218 --> 00:38:20,323
They didn't want people to
know any more than I did.
917
00:38:20,387 --> 00:38:22,890
And that's exactly what you've
always counted on, isn't it?
918
00:38:23,223 --> 00:38:26,397
That your athletic ability would
make people look the other way.
919
00:38:26,459 --> 00:38:27,733
I don't use people.
920
00:38:27,794 --> 00:38:29,467
Didn't you use Dena Meredith?
921
00:38:29,529 --> 00:38:32,100
Didn't you use her
to give you money?
922
00:38:32,165 --> 00:38:35,339
Money that you knew
would be used to buy drugs?
923
00:38:35,402 --> 00:38:37,040
She was getting her bonuses.
924
00:38:37,370 --> 00:38:39,281
So using her was okay, then?
925
00:38:42,375 --> 00:38:45,754
Now, if you knew
926
00:38:46,446 --> 00:38:47,982
you hadn't done wrong,
927
00:38:48,515 --> 00:38:50,791
why did you lie
to two detectives
928
00:38:50,850 --> 00:38:53,524
when you were asked about
knowing Dena Meredith?
929
00:38:53,587 --> 00:38:54,861
That was a mistake.
930
00:38:55,188 --> 00:38:57,600
JACK: And what you said when you
surrendered at your mother's house,
931
00:38:57,657 --> 00:38:58,761
was that another mistake?
932
00:38:58,825 --> 00:39:00,065
I don't know what
you're talking about.
933
00:39:00,627 --> 00:39:03,107
You told Detective Green
that you tried to tell her.
934
00:39:03,163 --> 00:39:05,302
Tried to tell her
what, Mr. Cody?
935
00:39:05,365 --> 00:39:07,140
That you didn't want
this baby, isn't that it?
936
00:39:07,801 --> 00:39:09,178
I tried to warn her.
937
00:39:11,204 --> 00:39:12,376
Warn her?
938
00:39:14,674 --> 00:39:15,709
About what?
939
00:39:17,410 --> 00:39:20,789
You've already testified you didn't
know what Henry was going to do.
940
00:39:22,816 --> 00:39:24,727
You knew you were the father,
941
00:39:25,318 --> 00:39:29,266
and when she came to you, you did
what you've done your whole life.
942
00:39:30,390 --> 00:39:31,698
You took care of yourself.
943
00:39:32,392 --> 00:39:34,998
GARNETT: Objection. Ls there
a question here, Your Honor?
944
00:39:38,832 --> 00:39:41,073
Were these people using you,
945
00:39:42,702 --> 00:39:44,613
or were you using them?
946
00:39:52,245 --> 00:39:55,226
Mr. McCoy can paint whatever
picture he wants of Chris Cody,
947
00:39:55,281 --> 00:39:56,726
but the truth is,
948
00:39:57,217 --> 00:39:58,719
he can't prove any of it.
949
00:39:59,385 --> 00:40:02,366
The only evidence against
Chris Cody is the testimony,
950
00:40:02,422 --> 00:40:04,629
the word of two
convicted drug dealers.
951
00:40:04,691 --> 00:40:09,003
One who admittedly had
dealings with the victim,
952
00:40:09,062 --> 00:40:10,336
and the other,
953
00:40:10,897 --> 00:40:14,538
who never personally
spoke with Mr. Cody.
954
00:40:15,001 --> 00:40:17,038
The simple fact is,
955
00:40:17,270 --> 00:40:20,479
Chris Cody never knew he was
the father of this child.
956
00:40:20,540 --> 00:40:21,814
And if he never knew,
957
00:40:22,442 --> 00:40:24,752
he had no motive
for killing Dena Meredith.
958
00:40:26,479 --> 00:40:29,460
This man rose from nothing
959
00:40:30,383 --> 00:40:34,126
to become a respected
person in his community.
960
00:40:34,754 --> 00:40:36,495
A champion for this city.
961
00:40:37,257 --> 00:40:39,635
He spent his own money
in his old neighborhood,
962
00:40:39,692 --> 00:40:41,535
never forgotten
where he came from,
963
00:40:41,594 --> 00:40:43,733
never forgotten who he was.
964
00:40:44,631 --> 00:40:46,167
Don't you forget him now.
965
00:40:46,566 --> 00:40:49,877
Don't you let these people
trade on his celebrity
966
00:40:49,936 --> 00:40:52,940
in order to steal his
liberty and his good name.
967
00:40:53,006 --> 00:40:56,283
He pulled himself up out of
hell with his own hands.
968
00:40:56,710 --> 00:41:01,455
Don't you dare let them pull
him back down with theirs.
969
00:41:08,421 --> 00:41:10,924
"Pulled himself out of
hell with his own hands."
970
00:41:12,258 --> 00:41:15,467
More like he stepped on others
in his climb to the top.
971
00:41:16,763 --> 00:41:19,573
Listen to his
self-serving story,
972
00:41:20,366 --> 00:41:22,903
and ask yourselves
if it makes any sense.
973
00:41:24,037 --> 00:41:28,042
He claims he didn't know he
was the father of this child.
974
00:41:28,608 --> 00:41:31,111
Says Dena Meredith
never told him.
975
00:41:31,344 --> 00:41:33,551
Yet somehow
Henry Williams knew.
976
00:41:34,814 --> 00:41:37,852
He claims he had
no motive to kill.
977
00:41:37,917 --> 00:41:39,988
But he had the same
motive to kill
978
00:41:40,053 --> 00:41:42,465
that he attributes
to Henry Williams.
979
00:41:42,522 --> 00:41:46,163
Silencing a witness who could
implicate him in drug trafficking.
980
00:41:46,226 --> 00:41:49,867
And he had a second
motive all his own.
981
00:41:50,096 --> 00:41:53,373
To avoid paying child support.
982
00:41:54,467 --> 00:41:56,777
This is no champion,
ladies and gentlemen.
983
00:41:57,237 --> 00:41:59,911
This is no favorite son.
984
00:42:00,774 --> 00:42:03,380
This is a man who
got by on his talent,
985
00:42:04,177 --> 00:42:06,521
had others willing to look
the other way because of it,
986
00:42:07,113 --> 00:42:11,220
had others willing to do his bidding
in order to profit from it.
987
00:42:15,121 --> 00:42:18,330
A child taken from
its dying mother's womb,
988
00:42:18,391 --> 00:42:21,395
will have to struggle
to survive without her.
989
00:42:22,428 --> 00:42:27,537
Dena Meredith's mother will have
to make it without her daughter.
990
00:42:29,736 --> 00:42:31,943
It's time to stop
cheering for this man,
991
00:42:32,705 --> 00:42:35,208
and for his ability
to play ball.
992
00:42:36,242 --> 00:42:40,349
It's time to stop fretting
over the opportunities
993
00:42:40,413 --> 00:42:42,791
supposedly lost to him,
994
00:42:44,050 --> 00:42:45,461
and time to start thinking
995
00:42:46,286 --> 00:42:47,890
about the opportunities
996
00:42:48,922 --> 00:42:50,196
and the lives
997
00:42:51,524 --> 00:42:53,868
stolen by him.
998
00:43:06,773 --> 00:43:09,219
JUDGE: Mr. Foreman, I understand
the jury's reached a verdict.
999
00:43:09,275 --> 00:43:10,413
We have.
1000
00:43:12,745 --> 00:43:14,349
On the first count
of the indictment,
1001
00:43:14,414 --> 00:43:16,416
charging murder
in the first degree,
1002
00:43:16,482 --> 00:43:18,962
we find the defendant,
Christopher Cody,
1003
00:43:19,519 --> 00:43:20,657
guilty,
1004
00:43:40,540 --> 00:43:41,780
Life without parole.
1005
00:43:42,942 --> 00:43:45,149
He won't be able to
play his way out of that.
1006
00:43:45,512 --> 00:43:47,355
What do we hear
about the child?
1007
00:43:47,413 --> 00:43:48,721
Doing fine.
1008
00:43:49,415 --> 00:43:53,124
A man murders the mother of his
baby to avoid child support
1009
00:43:53,686 --> 00:43:56,098
and winds up paying
for the rest of his life.
1010
00:43:56,756 --> 00:43:58,326
Losing season
all the way around.
1011
