00:00:06,339 --> 00:00:07,899
NARRATOR:
In the criminal justice system
2
00:00:08,141 --> 00:00:11,736
the people are represented by two
separate yet equally important groups,
3
00:00:12,078 --> 00:00:13,773
the police who investigate crime
4
00:00:13,947 --> 00:00:16,415
and the district attorneys
who prosecute the offenders.
5
00:00:16,850 --> 00:00:18,317
These are their stories.
6
00:00:21,321 --> 00:00:23,361
FEMALE WITNESS: Is he dead?
DUNNE: What do you care?
7
00:00:23,423 --> 00:00:25,482
He's gotta be dead.
You want to join him?
8
00:00:25,658 --> 00:00:27,751
Someone said that he fell
out of Monty's window.
9
00:00:28,228 --> 00:00:29,695
Go home and watch the news.
10
00:00:30,397 --> 00:00:31,421
What've we got?
11
00:00:31,498 --> 00:00:33,022
Trash can fire.
Hit the curtains.
12
00:00:33,366 --> 00:00:34,366
How bad?
13
00:00:34,434 --> 00:00:36,274
Oh, they're coughing and talking.
They're fine.
14
00:00:36,302 --> 00:00:37,394
A little shocked.
15
00:00:38,271 --> 00:00:39,363
Is it really Monty?
16
00:00:39,439 --> 00:00:40,804
Sucking oxygen as we speak.
17
00:00:41,608 --> 00:00:43,408
What am I gonna do? They
all say they're okay.
18
00:00:43,777 --> 00:00:45,137
Except for the one
that can't talk.
19
00:00:46,146 --> 00:00:47,170
He ain't my department.
20
00:00:49,549 --> 00:00:51,414
Lennie, how are you?
21
00:00:51,718 --> 00:00:53,743
A beautiful end to
a beautiful day.
22
00:00:54,120 --> 00:00:55,144
Can't imagine.
23
00:00:55,221 --> 00:00:57,382
Looks like we missed all the action.
What?
24
00:00:57,457 --> 00:00:58,737
We got a call
there was a jumper.
25
00:00:59,059 --> 00:01:00,539
Whoever said that
took some liberties.
26
00:01:00,627 --> 00:01:01,787
Why don't you fill us in?
27
00:01:02,529 --> 00:01:05,555
DOA. Fell out of Monty
Bender's hotel window.
28
00:01:05,632 --> 00:01:06,758
Hit the mezzanine level.
29
00:01:06,833 --> 00:01:08,357
Monty Bender the comic?
30
00:01:08,768 --> 00:01:10,929
My kid's gonna be pissed off
I don't get an autograph.
31
00:01:11,104 --> 00:01:13,800
Well, what happened? Somebody got
tired of his routine and jumped?
32
00:01:14,307 --> 00:01:15,507
I don't think he had a choice.
33
00:01:16,276 --> 00:01:18,039
There was some kind
of fire in his room.
34
00:01:18,111 --> 00:01:20,443
I saw Monty's last flick.
Cracked me up.
35
00:01:30,790 --> 00:01:38,382
Yeah, very funny.
Ripped By mstoll
36
00:02:26,479 --> 00:02:27,673
The flames traveled this way.
37
00:02:27,881 --> 00:02:29,041
So he was trapped inside?
38
00:02:29,182 --> 00:02:30,382
That's why he moved over here.
39
00:02:31,985 --> 00:02:35,512
Whoa. I don't think my high
school auditorium was this big.
40
00:02:35,755 --> 00:02:37,814
Probably had less people
spending time there.
41
00:02:39,192 --> 00:02:42,127
Monty held the kid out here to
keep him from breathing in smoke.
42
00:02:43,196 --> 00:02:45,562
He was passed out right here
when Ladder 88 arrived.
43
00:02:46,099 --> 00:02:47,623
Why wouldn't they
just go in there?
44
00:02:50,236 --> 00:02:52,397
(EXCLAIMS) Never mind.
45
00:02:52,472 --> 00:02:53,837
This is where the fire started.
46
00:02:54,707 --> 00:02:58,871
Somebody dumped an ashtray in
here, and that's all she wrote.
47
00:02:59,212 --> 00:03:00,736
Whose room is this?
48
00:03:00,813 --> 00:03:02,212
Monty's nutritionist.
49
00:03:02,515 --> 00:03:03,709
Fred something or other.
50
00:03:03,783 --> 00:03:06,183
I guess he forgot to read the
warning on the side of the box.
51
00:03:06,519 --> 00:03:09,079
SKINNER: He was in the suite with
Monty and Birgit, his stylist.
52
00:03:09,622 --> 00:03:11,021
What the hell is that?
53
00:03:11,090 --> 00:03:12,421
What do I know?
54
00:03:12,492 --> 00:03:14,517
They first saw the smoke
come underneath the door.
55
00:03:14,661 --> 00:03:18,028
Flames hit the curtain, then the carpet.
AC helped it spread.
56
00:03:18,331 --> 00:03:19,764
What about the smoke alarms?
57
00:03:19,866 --> 00:03:21,424
Turns out they were
all disconnected.
58
00:03:21,734 --> 00:03:23,894
Monty didn't like the beeping
when he burned his toast.
59
00:03:23,970 --> 00:03:25,597
So you're thinking
this is arson?
60
00:03:26,806 --> 00:03:28,569
A lit butt in a
basket full of paper.
61
00:03:28,975 --> 00:03:29,999
Too early to tell.
62
00:03:30,076 --> 00:03:31,373
Where's Monty now?
63
00:03:31,444 --> 00:03:33,071
Down at Mercy General
being sedated.
64
00:03:33,146 --> 00:03:34,909
And Fred and...
Birgit?
65
00:03:34,981 --> 00:03:36,181
They're with the Fire Marshal.
66
00:03:37,150 --> 00:03:38,242
We should bring them in.
67
00:03:38,318 --> 00:03:39,615
I want to get cleaned up first.
68
00:03:40,853 --> 00:03:43,913
Is he okay? They dragged
him off to the hospital.
69
00:03:44,057 --> 00:03:47,515
From what I hear, pharmaceuticals
are helping him through it.
70
00:03:51,164 --> 00:03:52,756
I can't believe Robbie's gone.
71
00:03:54,934 --> 00:03:56,697
I don't know if Monty's
heart can take this.
72
00:03:57,036 --> 00:03:58,128
He wasn't well?
73
00:03:59,606 --> 00:04:02,973
He had a stress test. They told
him his heart was a time bomb.
74
00:04:03,776 --> 00:04:06,370
So that's why he needed his
very own nutritionist?
75
00:04:06,946 --> 00:04:08,243
You should've seen how he ate.
76
00:04:09,015 --> 00:04:11,415
Pizza, cheeseburger,
leftover Chinese.
77
00:04:11,818 --> 00:04:13,649
Something wrong with that?
78
00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:15,017
You're not funny.
79
00:04:15,088 --> 00:04:16,328
You know what strikes me funny?
80
00:04:17,223 --> 00:04:19,748
Somebody like you, who's all
into health and whatnot
81
00:04:19,826 --> 00:04:21,157
would still be smoking.
82
00:04:21,694 --> 00:04:22,820
I have maybe one a month.
83
00:04:23,830 --> 00:04:24,888
When I'm tense.
84
00:04:26,499 --> 00:04:27,625
And believe me,
85
00:04:28,601 --> 00:04:29,601
that one
86
00:04:30,603 --> 00:04:31,797
will be my last.
87
00:04:37,510 --> 00:04:38,977
This is all my fault.
88
00:04:41,281 --> 00:04:43,772
I don't know how he's going to
live with himself after this.
89
00:04:45,018 --> 00:04:47,282
You can't imagine how
much he loved Robbie.
90
00:04:47,854 --> 00:04:49,014
You were really close to him?
91
00:04:51,224 --> 00:04:53,158
I worked for him
for the past five years.
92
00:04:53,660 --> 00:04:55,821
Are all stylists on call 24 l7?
93
00:04:56,329 --> 00:04:58,194
Monty needs to project
the right image.
94
00:04:59,999 --> 00:05:01,660
What has this
got to do with anything?
95
00:05:01,801 --> 00:05:04,565
No, I'm just wondering why
everybody was in his room.
96
00:05:06,172 --> 00:05:08,106
All three of us were
playing with the baby.
97
00:05:08,875 --> 00:05:11,139
And Fred smelled something
coming from his room,
98
00:05:12,045 --> 00:05:13,376
and he opened the door,
99
00:05:13,613 --> 00:05:15,137
and you couldn't believe it.
100
00:05:15,281 --> 00:05:17,613
It was like a fog of smoke.
101
00:05:19,819 --> 00:05:21,912
We couldn't get out the
door because of the flames.
102
00:05:23,790 --> 00:05:25,052
Monty grabbed Robbie
103
00:05:25,925 --> 00:05:27,358
and tried to cover his face.
104
00:05:29,028 --> 00:05:30,689
Birgit called down to security.
105
00:05:31,297 --> 00:05:32,457
And what about the window?
106
00:05:34,734 --> 00:05:35,962
My eyes were tearing.
107
00:05:37,303 --> 00:05:39,032
Birgit called out
to Monty to open it.
108
00:05:40,239 --> 00:05:41,797
Maybe that was the wrong thing.
109
00:05:42,942 --> 00:05:44,136
Why do you say that?
110
00:05:44,210 --> 00:05:45,677
Because the smoke got thicker.
111
00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:49,177
It was so thick.
112
00:05:51,050 --> 00:05:52,050
Like fog.
113
00:05:53,586 --> 00:05:56,214
We were all coughing,
and it was hard to see.
114
00:05:56,923 --> 00:05:58,982
So, you didn't
actually see the baby
115
00:05:59,425 --> 00:06:00,824
fall out of the window?
116
00:06:01,160 --> 00:06:03,594
The baby was crying and gagging,
117
00:06:03,663 --> 00:06:05,927
and Monty was saying to him,
118
00:06:05,998 --> 00:06:08,091
"Be still. It's going
to be okay, Robbie."
119
00:06:08,701 --> 00:06:09,701
But
120
00:06:10,503 --> 00:06:12,130
Monty started coughing,
121
00:06:13,806 --> 00:06:16,297
and the baby just slipped.
122
00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:21,811
What are we doing here?
123
00:06:22,715 --> 00:06:25,548
This is obviously
a terrible accident.
124
00:06:27,820 --> 00:06:29,481
I hate celebrity cases.
125
00:06:29,555 --> 00:06:31,887
Oh, there's a TV movie in this.
I can smell it.
126
00:06:31,991 --> 00:06:34,551
God help us.
I saw Monty's last movie.
127
00:06:34,627 --> 00:06:36,390
Hey, some people said
it cracked them up.
128
00:06:36,662 --> 00:06:38,323
Barfjokes?
You're kidding.
129
00:06:38,398 --> 00:06:40,889
Anyway, until the arson
people tell us different,
130
00:06:40,967 --> 00:06:42,457
this ain't nothing
but a bad accident.
131
00:06:42,535 --> 00:06:45,595
Well, how the hell did this
baby end up out of a window?
132
00:06:45,671 --> 00:06:48,902
Monty was trying to keep him
away from the fog of smoke.
133
00:06:48,975 --> 00:06:51,637
Say what? That's what the
nutritionist said to me.
134
00:06:52,044 --> 00:06:53,875
That's the way these
creative types talk.
135
00:06:54,180 --> 00:06:57,616
Maybe. But those are the same exact
words that the stylist used with me.
136
00:06:57,817 --> 00:06:59,478
And you don't think
that's a coincidence.
137
00:06:59,552 --> 00:07:03,579
Well, sure, it could be. But it could
also be that Monty told them what to say.
138
00:07:04,257 --> 00:07:06,316
Why don't we get it straight
from the horse's mouth?
139
00:07:10,096 --> 00:07:12,758
I promised him I would never
let anybody hurt him.
140
00:07:13,733 --> 00:07:14,733
And now...
141
00:07:16,436 --> 00:07:17,767
You here to arrest me?
142
00:07:17,837 --> 00:07:19,877
ED: No, we're just trying
to find out what happened.
143
00:07:20,740 --> 00:07:22,037
He was crying.
144
00:07:22,442 --> 00:07:23,704
There was smoke.
145
00:07:24,410 --> 00:07:25,410
I sang to him.
146
00:07:26,579 --> 00:07:27,773
He liked that.
147
00:07:28,414 --> 00:07:29,711
(SINGING LULLABY)
148
00:07:35,254 --> 00:07:37,814
Maybe we ought to
come back, Mr. Bender.
149
00:07:39,091 --> 00:07:41,291
I guess they have those smoke
alarm things for a reason.
150
00:07:42,962 --> 00:07:44,224
I'm going to hell, aren't I?
151
00:07:44,297 --> 00:07:45,696
Hey, you didn't know.
152
00:07:46,566 --> 00:07:48,363
And I'm supposed
to make people laugh.
153
00:07:49,802 --> 00:07:51,167
Some joke, isn't it?
154
00:07:52,138 --> 00:07:54,572
Was there anybody else in
the room with you when...
155
00:07:55,908 --> 00:07:57,136
Fred and Birgit.
156
00:07:58,044 --> 00:07:59,068
Just them?
157
00:08:00,179 --> 00:08:01,203
Yeah. Why?
158
00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:03,280
You ever have any problems
with either one of them?
159
00:08:03,449 --> 00:08:05,314
No. They've been
with me for years.
160
00:08:05,618 --> 00:08:06,618
We're family.
161
00:08:06,953 --> 00:08:08,818
Speaking of which,
where's Robbie's mother?
162
00:08:11,557 --> 00:08:12,615
I don't know.
163
00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:15,218
I adopted him
164
00:08:16,262 --> 00:08:17,286
a year ago.
165
00:08:18,498 --> 00:08:19,590
Not what I expected.
166
00:08:19,665 --> 00:08:21,599
Oh, give the guy a break.
He's in shock.
167
00:08:21,667 --> 00:08:23,225
"Twinkle, twinkle, little star,"
168
00:08:23,302 --> 00:08:25,497
while your place is burning down?
I don't know.
169
00:08:25,571 --> 00:08:27,129
Yeah, you're right, he
should've done a few jokes.
170
00:08:27,206 --> 00:08:28,571
The guy didn't know
which way was up.
171
00:08:28,641 --> 00:08:30,734
All I'm saying is, he was
pretty quick on the trigger
172
00:08:30,810 --> 00:08:32,903
when we asked him who was
in the room with him.
173
00:08:32,979 --> 00:08:35,004
I'm just thinking maybe there's
somebody in his entourage
174
00:08:35,081 --> 00:08:37,413
who didn't want to go along
with that "fog of smoke" story.
175
00:08:37,483 --> 00:08:39,314
Remind me again,
what are we investigating?
176
00:08:39,385 --> 00:08:41,546
Potential arson.
Dead kid.
177
00:08:45,791 --> 00:08:47,991
Monty moved in about a year
ago, when the hotel business
178
00:08:47,994 --> 00:08:49,120
was down the toilet.
179
00:08:49,195 --> 00:08:50,526
But his money
spends pretty good.
180
00:08:50,596 --> 00:08:53,565
In up times, we have a policy
against rock stars, movie stars,
181
00:08:53,633 --> 00:08:55,225
almost anyone
who attracts a crowd.
182
00:08:55,635 --> 00:08:57,835
I gotta tell you though, Monty's
been the perfect guest.
183
00:08:57,937 --> 00:09:00,428
Polite, quiet.
Never a complaint.
184
00:09:00,606 --> 00:09:02,039
He got a lot of people
coming and going?
185
00:09:02,141 --> 00:09:05,110
Not as many as Eminem. Business
still isn't what it should be.
186
00:09:05,611 --> 00:09:08,637
Anyway, Fred and Birgit
have the adjoining rooms.
187
00:09:08,848 --> 00:09:10,042
Harvey's never a problem.
188
00:09:10,116 --> 00:09:11,174
Wait, who's Harvey?
189
00:09:11,617 --> 00:09:12,811
Masseur.
190
00:09:12,885 --> 00:09:14,978
What, is there something
wrong with him?
191
00:09:15,054 --> 00:09:17,079
I don't care what a guy
does in his private life,
192
00:09:17,156 --> 00:09:19,488
but Harvey's never gonna be
a starting linebacker for
193
00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:20,959
the Giants, if you know
what I mean.
194
00:09:21,027 --> 00:09:22,289
Yeah, I think I figured it out.
195
00:09:22,361 --> 00:09:23,794
You're saying Monty's gay?
196
00:09:23,863 --> 00:09:25,728
Don't ask, don't tell.
197
00:09:26,165 --> 00:09:27,393
But if I had his money,
198
00:09:27,466 --> 00:09:29,832
a guy named Harvey wouldn't be
touching any part of my body.
199
00:09:30,469 --> 00:09:33,063
And you tell me, if you were
single and had Monty's money,
200
00:09:33,139 --> 00:09:34,265
would you adopt a kid?
201
00:09:34,907 --> 00:09:38,104
Would you happen to know if Harvey
was around before the fire?
202
00:09:38,844 --> 00:09:40,573
Sorry. Hold on.
203
00:09:45,017 --> 00:09:48,453
The SOS from Monty's room
came in at 10:17:02.
204
00:09:49,288 --> 00:09:51,722
Harvey showed up looks like
40 minutes before that.
205
00:09:51,991 --> 00:09:53,049
How can you tell?
206
00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:55,889
Big Brother is always watching.
207
00:09:57,163 --> 00:09:59,427
Monty had me issue Harvey
his very own key to the room.
208
00:10:00,766 --> 00:10:03,360
Okay, okay, I was there,
I was in the room.
209
00:10:03,436 --> 00:10:05,427
But I showed up to
give Monty his massage,
210
00:10:05,504 --> 00:10:07,165
but he was too busy
playing with Robbie.
211
00:10:07,273 --> 00:10:08,740
So you left?
That's right.
212
00:10:09,108 --> 00:10:10,405
That's the story
you're sticking with?
213
00:10:10,476 --> 00:10:11,602
That's what happened.
214
00:10:11,677 --> 00:10:13,941
Well, what was going on in the
room before the baby fell?
215
00:10:14,113 --> 00:10:15,637
How would I know?
I wasn't there.
216
00:10:16,349 --> 00:10:17,976
You know what I think
is odd, Harvey?
217
00:10:18,217 --> 00:10:20,777
One guy giving another guy
the key to his hotel room.
218
00:10:20,987 --> 00:10:22,682
And I told you,
I work for Monty.
219
00:10:22,922 --> 00:10:24,402
Yeah, I know,
that's what you told us.
220
00:10:25,958 --> 00:10:27,550
What are you implying?
221
00:10:27,627 --> 00:10:29,185
What do you think?
222
00:10:30,796 --> 00:10:32,787
Okay, I'm gay.
You happy?
223
00:10:33,466 --> 00:10:34,490
I'm thrilled.
224
00:10:34,567 --> 00:10:37,263
But my relationship with Monty
is purely professional.
225
00:10:37,536 --> 00:10:40,164
Sure it is. Which is
why I'd be outta line
226
00:10:40,573 --> 00:10:43,406
to think that you and Monty
were otherwise engaged
227
00:10:43,476 --> 00:10:45,944
when Robbie fell.
Monty isn't gay.
228
00:10:46,245 --> 00:10:48,076
Harvey, help yourself out.
Talk to us.
229
00:10:52,718 --> 00:10:55,346
This isn't about the fire, is it?
This isn't about Robbie.
230
00:10:57,356 --> 00:10:59,415
My contract has
a non-disclosure clause.
231
00:10:59,492 --> 00:11:01,692
I have to return everything
he's paid me over the years.
232
00:11:01,761 --> 00:11:04,457
Bad news. That won't hold
up in a criminal trial.
233
00:11:04,797 --> 00:11:07,357
The good news is there's not
that much to buy in Attica.
234
00:11:07,933 --> 00:11:09,127
(EXCLAIMS)
235
00:11:09,702 --> 00:11:12,330
All right, man, we tried. You
want us to call your lawyer?
236
00:11:12,638 --> 00:11:13,638
Wait.
237
00:11:14,173 --> 00:11:16,368
I haven't done it in years.
238
00:11:17,910 --> 00:11:19,104
We know that.
239
00:11:19,645 --> 00:11:22,113
But you'll be a lot better
off if you tell us about it.
240
00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:30,111
I was just the talent scout.
241
00:11:30,923 --> 00:11:32,356
You expect us to believe that?
242
00:11:32,525 --> 00:11:33,958
I never touched those kids.
243
00:11:34,627 --> 00:11:36,322
Okay, Harvey,
start from the beginning.
244
00:11:44,236 --> 00:11:45,464
I drove the truck.
245
00:11:45,971 --> 00:11:47,029
What truck?
246
00:11:47,640 --> 00:11:49,972
Monty bought an ice-cream truck.
I drove it.
247
00:11:51,243 --> 00:11:52,243
What did Monty do?
248
00:11:54,613 --> 00:11:56,333
He looked through the
peepholes at the kids.
249
00:11:56,382 --> 00:11:57,576
When he saw one he liked,
250
00:11:58,284 --> 00:12:00,946
I'd invite the parents up to
his estate in the Berkshires.
251
00:12:03,055 --> 00:12:04,716
And the parents
would bring their kids?
252
00:12:06,892 --> 00:12:08,655
But I never laid
a hand on one of them.
253
00:12:16,502 --> 00:12:19,300
You trying to tell me the
parents know what's going down?
254
00:12:19,371 --> 00:12:21,362
People get around fame
and they get stupid.
255
00:12:21,474 --> 00:12:23,840
Standing on line to see
Madonna is stupid.
256
00:12:23,909 --> 00:12:24,909
This is a felony.
257
00:12:24,977 --> 00:12:28,071
So what exactly did
the massage guy say
258
00:12:28,147 --> 00:12:30,240
that Monty was
doing with the kids?
259
00:12:30,316 --> 00:12:33,046
They played. Only he
wasn't invited to see
260
00:12:33,119 --> 00:12:34,416
what game they were playing.
261
00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:36,420
Any complaints
about Monty before?
262
00:12:36,489 --> 00:12:38,649
Like I said, people get around
fame and they get stupid.
263
00:12:38,657 --> 00:12:39,851
They probably thought
of it as an honor
264
00:12:39,925 --> 00:12:41,645
that the great Monty Bender
chose their kid.
265
00:12:41,660 --> 00:12:43,150
Or maybe they just didn't know.
266
00:12:43,229 --> 00:12:44,992
Always the cockeyed
optimist, huh?
267
00:12:45,064 --> 00:12:48,693
Listen, when it comes to parents
offering up their kids for sex, yes.
268
00:12:48,801 --> 00:12:51,269
Is this guy reliable? He
looked too scared to lie.
269
00:12:51,370 --> 00:12:52,997
How we doing on the dead baby?
270
00:12:53,172 --> 00:12:55,470
We haven't heard
from the arson guys yet.
271
00:12:55,641 --> 00:12:57,871
Well, if we can't
get him on murder,
272
00:12:57,977 --> 00:12:59,740
pederasty is
a pretty good second.
273
00:12:59,812 --> 00:13:02,975
You just don't wake up one day
and decide you like little boys.
274
00:13:03,849 --> 00:13:07,945
Look, they say the only one who
knows a comic is another comic.
275
00:13:12,825 --> 00:13:14,425
LARRY: Guy walks
into a bar with a thing.
276
00:13:14,460 --> 00:13:15,586
BRISCOE: What thing?
277
00:13:15,661 --> 00:13:17,959
You don't get it. It's one
of Monty's old routines.
278
00:13:18,030 --> 00:13:19,122
And that's funny?
279
00:13:19,198 --> 00:13:20,398
How much do you get a picture?
280
00:13:20,432 --> 00:13:22,024
Do I hear a little envy, Larry?
281
00:13:22,101 --> 00:13:23,125
Mr. Miller.
282
00:13:23,836 --> 00:13:24,894
I'm kidding, Ed. God.
283
00:13:24,970 --> 00:13:25,994
You got me.
284
00:13:26,071 --> 00:13:27,231
Yeah, but you
still don't get it.
285
00:13:27,306 --> 00:13:29,968
Comics, we don't do
what we do for the money.
286
00:13:30,042 --> 00:13:31,441
What do you do it for?
287
00:13:31,510 --> 00:13:34,138
I can't speak for Monty. But then
again, I don't drive a stick.
288
00:13:34,213 --> 00:13:35,339
Now that's funny.
289
00:13:35,414 --> 00:13:38,679
It wasn't supposed to be. Look,
if Monty double parked again,
290
00:13:38,751 --> 00:13:39,751
I wasn't there.
291
00:13:39,819 --> 00:13:42,299
I'm afraid it's a little bit more
serious than that. Littering?
292
00:13:42,488 --> 00:13:43,580
Little boys.
293
00:13:46,392 --> 00:13:48,121
America's a wonderful
place, isn't it?
294
00:13:48,627 --> 00:13:51,289
We love the underdog. We cheer him
on all the way up the mountain.
295
00:13:51,564 --> 00:13:52,924
Then as soon as
he gets to the top,
296
00:13:53,432 --> 00:13:56,424
we enjoy nothing more than
kicking the son of a bitch off
297
00:13:56,502 --> 00:13:57,782
and stomping him
into the ground.
298
00:13:57,870 --> 00:13:58,894
The ones who are
pedophiles, yeah.
299
00:13:58,971 --> 00:14:02,668
Monty and I had a couple of drinks after a
couple of shows a couple of decades ago.
300
00:14:02,842 --> 00:14:04,537
And you became a couple?
301
00:14:04,610 --> 00:14:06,168
What, you went out
and chased women?
302
00:14:06,946 --> 00:14:10,109
You know, good comics look at the
world and see a funny place.
303
00:14:10,182 --> 00:14:12,082
Great comics look
at the world and don't.
304
00:14:12,451 --> 00:14:14,112
I heard rumors.
305
00:14:14,186 --> 00:14:15,676
What kind of rumors?
306
00:14:15,754 --> 00:14:19,246
I heard some kid accused him
of inappropriate behavior.
307
00:14:19,558 --> 00:14:21,048
Like using the wrong fork?
308
00:14:22,027 --> 00:14:24,825
I don't think Monty would pay
seven figures to cover that up.
309
00:14:25,197 --> 00:14:26,494
Then again, it's still a rumor.
310
00:14:26,866 --> 00:14:28,493
Is there anybody
who can verify that?
311
00:14:28,968 --> 00:14:32,927
Well, his old business manager
used to be Marvin Fowler.
312
00:14:34,039 --> 00:14:35,799
Now there's a guy you
could chase women with.
313
00:14:37,409 --> 00:14:39,843
Damn, I wonder what a
$200 haircut looks like.
314
00:14:40,045 --> 00:14:42,013
Kind of like a $400 carwash.
315
00:14:42,081 --> 00:14:44,015
I believe they
call that detailing.
316
00:14:44,083 --> 00:14:46,881
I just got off the phone
with the arson investigator.
317
00:14:46,952 --> 00:14:49,785
He still hasn't determined
if the fire was accidental.
318
00:14:50,055 --> 00:14:53,547
I wonder if Monty accidentally
wrote a million dollar check
319
00:14:53,626 --> 00:14:57,790
to Mr. John Mireles
on August 27th, 1997.
320
00:14:58,030 --> 00:15:00,521
Mireles... Mireles.
Wait a minute.
321
00:15:00,866 --> 00:15:04,461
Yeah, Monty paid him a half a
million dollars every August 6th.
322
00:15:04,536 --> 00:15:07,266
All from his personal account,
all for entertainment.
323
00:15:07,640 --> 00:15:09,631
And I thought a Knicks
game was expensive.
324
00:15:09,708 --> 00:15:12,768
Allan Houston doesn't threaten
to drag your ass to jail.
325
00:15:13,779 --> 00:15:15,076
Talk to him.
326
00:15:18,717 --> 00:15:21,515
I haven't thought about Monty in years.
Excuse me.
327
00:15:23,088 --> 00:15:24,555
Any particular reason?
328
00:15:24,890 --> 00:15:27,290
Well, you know how this business is.
We're all like Gypsies.
329
00:15:28,127 --> 00:15:31,062
You're like family for six weeks, and
then you don't speak for six years.
330
00:15:31,130 --> 00:15:32,529
You're an actor?
A writer.
331
00:15:33,132 --> 00:15:34,224
Monty's second picture.
332
00:15:34,767 --> 00:15:36,257
Wait, you wrote
The Wicked Stepson?
333
00:15:37,036 --> 00:15:38,956
Wow, I thought Monty wrote
all his stuff himself.
334
00:15:39,004 --> 00:15:40,733
Yeah, well, that's
his image. The auteur.
335
00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:42,040
Sit down.
336
00:15:42,908 --> 00:15:46,275
I wrote a script as a hobby and he
bought it, lock, stock, and barrel.
337
00:15:46,578 --> 00:15:48,178
What, as long as
you didn't tell anybody?
338
00:15:49,381 --> 00:15:52,612
Anyway, the last time I saw him, he
handed me a million dollar check.
339
00:15:53,652 --> 00:15:55,279
I'm sorry, my son is ill.
340
00:15:56,088 --> 00:15:57,328
You didn't offer them anything?
341
00:15:57,423 --> 00:15:58,549
ED: No, no, no.
We're fine.
342
00:15:58,991 --> 00:16:00,049
How old is your son?
343
00:16:00,125 --> 00:16:01,456
Davey's almost six.
344
00:16:01,527 --> 00:16:02,619
He's your only child?

00:16:02,695 --> 00:16:05,095
No, Sammy's 17.
He's a freshman at Hudson.
346
00:16:05,297 --> 00:16:08,824
He must've gotten quite a kick out of
his old man working with Monty Bender.
347
00:16:09,301 --> 00:16:10,768
I don't think he even remembers.
348
00:16:10,836 --> 00:16:12,235
If you don't mind me prying,
349
00:16:12,304 --> 00:16:14,670
why the 500,000
every year since?
350
00:16:15,641 --> 00:16:16,665
Royalties.
351
00:16:17,309 --> 00:16:18,867
I'm sure we could
have made more,
352
00:16:19,311 --> 00:16:20,369
but a bird in the hand.
353
00:16:21,780 --> 00:16:23,042
ED: All right, you'reJoe Citizen, right?
354
00:16:23,349 --> 00:16:25,374
A couple of detectives show up
at your door asking questions.
355
00:16:25,517 --> 00:16:28,077
What do you do? You mean
after I flush my stash?
356
00:16:28,153 --> 00:16:29,882
Dude didn't even ask us
why we were there.
357
00:16:30,089 --> 00:16:32,114
This Monty thing's been
all over the front page.
358
00:16:32,191 --> 00:16:34,250
If it was me, I'd at
least pretend to care
359
00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:35,588
about how he was holding up.
360
00:16:35,661 --> 00:16:37,701
I think it's time to talk
to Mireles son number one.
361
00:16:42,368 --> 00:16:44,768
My parents? I don't really
talk to them that much.
362
00:16:44,903 --> 00:16:48,063
BRISCOE: My kid calls me all the time to
tell me how much I screwed up her life.
363
00:16:48,173 --> 00:16:50,641
I'm cool. ED: You get wireless
Internet on that, Sammy?
364
00:16:50,776 --> 00:16:52,141
Yeah, sure.
You mind?

one of these.

Oh, this is nice.

My parents do something wrong?
369
00:16:59,818 --> 00:17:03,083
No, we're just looking into Monty
Bender, and their names came up.
370
00:17:03,489 --> 00:17:05,719
Monty? What'd he do,
make another crappy movie?
371
00:17:06,058 --> 00:17:08,390
BRISCOE: I think you know
what he did, Sammy. Huh?
372
00:17:08,460 --> 00:17:12,123
A little birdie told us that he's
into some pretty weird stuff.
373
00:17:13,932 --> 00:17:15,126
How would I know?
374
00:17:16,635 --> 00:17:18,432
I never even met
the dude. Look.
375
00:17:18,504 --> 00:17:20,267
I gotta go,
okay? Peace.

a little off-center.

Show me a teenager who isn't.
378
00:17:28,113 --> 00:17:30,513
Yep? All right,
you got it.
379
00:17:31,717 --> 00:17:33,617
It's the M.E.
She wants to talk to us.
380
00:17:33,919 --> 00:17:35,546
Every bone in his body
was broken.
381
00:17:35,621 --> 00:17:37,486
BRISCOE: Well, a 12-storey
fall will do that.
382
00:17:37,856 --> 00:17:39,721
The story is that Monty
held him out the window
383
00:17:39,792 --> 00:17:41,225
because the room was
filled with smoke?
384
00:17:41,293 --> 00:17:42,817
Uh-huh. Something
wrong with that?
385
00:17:42,895 --> 00:17:44,226
There's no smoke in his lungs.
386
00:17:44,296 --> 00:17:46,196
Well, they said they
had a towel over his head.
387
00:17:46,398 --> 00:17:48,298
Young, pink lungs like his,
388
00:17:48,867 --> 00:17:50,425
really shouldn't
make a difference.
389
00:17:50,502 --> 00:17:52,197
There should be some indication.
Wait, hold on.
390
00:17:52,271 --> 00:17:53,738
We saw the room.
391
00:17:53,806 --> 00:17:55,671
Look, all I can tell you
is this little guy
392
00:17:55,741 --> 00:17:58,141
may not have been in the
room while it was burning.
393
00:17:59,945 --> 00:18:02,539
BRISCOE: Because the baby
was murdered, that's why.
394
00:18:02,748 --> 00:18:05,273
That's crazy. Why would
Monty kill Robbie?
395
00:18:05,350 --> 00:18:06,908
That's what I want
you to tell me.
396
00:18:06,985 --> 00:18:08,577
But there's nothing to tell.
397
00:18:08,987 --> 00:18:11,046
Damn it, a kid is dead!
398
00:18:11,857 --> 00:18:14,985
Did you miss the day in stylist
school when they taught you that
399
00:18:15,060 --> 00:18:18,621
covering up a murder is just as
bad as doing the murder yourself?
400
00:18:18,831 --> 00:18:20,890
What makes you think
I'm covering?
401
00:18:21,133 --> 00:18:23,499
There was no smoke
in the baby's lungs,
402
00:18:23,569 --> 00:18:26,470
which means he was
dead before the fire.
403
00:18:29,708 --> 00:18:32,802
Birgit, I can work with you now.
404
00:18:32,878 --> 00:18:33,936

Okay.
406
00:18:42,654 --> 00:18:45,521
Monty panicked. He held
Robbie out the window
407
00:18:45,591 --> 00:18:47,616
before the room was
totally filled with smoke.
408
00:18:52,364 --> 00:18:54,798
I hope that son of a bitch
is paying you a lot.

the same story.

he can't conclude either way.

So this bastard's gonna walk?
Maybe not.

00:19:19,024 --> 00:19:21,322
I checked the web. For what,

418
00:19:21,393 --> 00:19:23,918
No, I googled Sammy Mireles.
Don't ask.
419
00:19:24,696 --> 00:19:26,994

all over this one website,

upyourbutt. Net.
421
00:19:29,101 --> 00:19:32,730
Now, in a deposition from a civil
suit against Monty Bender, he said...
422
00:19:32,804 --> 00:19:33,862
Do I want to hear this?
423
00:19:34,473 --> 00:19:36,805
"Monty touched my penis
with his mouth."
424
00:19:36,875 --> 00:19:37,967
The answer's no.
425
00:19:38,577 --> 00:19:39,771
Pick him up.
426
00:19:48,687 --> 00:19:49,847

No, it can't.

anybody, timing is everything.

Monty Bender, you're under
arrest for sexual abuse.
430
00:19:56,662 --> 00:19:59,153
Hey, stylist, what should
he wear to a felony trial?
431
00:19:59,231 --> 00:20:00,631
You have the right
to remain silent.
432

used against you in a court of law.

Turns out the bell on the statute of
limitations rang three months ago.

There is if the payment was
to not file criminal charges.

a jury will buy that,

00:23:22,701 --> 00:23:25,261
It was available to the
public, it was in plain view.
514
00:23:25,337 --> 00:23:28,500
For any police officer who happened
to be on a fishing expedition.
515
00:23:28,573 --> 00:23:30,093
The detectives had
reason to believe...
516
00:23:30,142 --> 00:23:33,634
They were investigating the
unfortunate and accidental death
517
00:23:33,712 --> 00:23:34,838
of my client's baby.
518
00:23:34,913 --> 00:23:36,073
Can I talk?
519
00:23:36,782 --> 00:23:38,841
One of Mr. Bender's
employees told the police
520
00:23:38,917 --> 00:23:40,757
that he was in the habit
of bringing young boys
521
00:23:40,819 --> 00:23:42,878
to his country home
for illicit purposes.
522
00:23:43,088 --> 00:23:47,252
Richard Gere, Tom Cruise,
John Travolta. All famous.
523
00:23:47,325 --> 00:23:49,190
All subject to rumors.
524
00:23:49,361 --> 00:23:52,194
Now, it's bad enough that a
lascivious public feels compelled
525
00:23:52,264 --> 00:23:54,357
to involve themselves
in such slander.
526
00:23:54,533 --> 00:23:56,453
The state shouldn't be
permitted to hop on board.
527
00:23:56,535 --> 00:23:59,060
This is hardly a rumor, Your Honor.
It's a court document.
528
00:23:59,137 --> 00:24:00,570
Which was sealed for a reason.
529
00:24:00,639 --> 00:24:02,129
Then how did it get
onto the Internet?
530
00:24:02,274 --> 00:24:04,071
That is the crux of my argument.
531
00:24:04,676 --> 00:24:06,769
What is the purpose
of sealing a document
532
00:24:06,845 --> 00:24:09,336
if any court employee
with a perverse grudge
533
00:24:09,414 --> 00:24:11,109
can offer it up for all to see?
534
00:24:11,316 --> 00:24:13,113
The fact is, it's
available to the public.
535
00:24:13,418 --> 00:24:14,715
It should be available
to the state.
536
00:24:14,786 --> 00:24:17,653
To read, sure. But not to use
as evidence in my courtroom.
537
00:24:18,089 --> 00:24:19,113
The document's out.
538
00:24:19,191 --> 00:24:22,456
Which leaves the state with no
evidence whatsoever against my client.
539
00:24:22,928 --> 00:24:24,020
Mr. McCoy?
540
00:24:24,463 --> 00:24:25,930
Given time...
That's what I thought.
541
00:24:26,765 --> 00:24:28,130
Case dismissed.
542
00:24:31,436 --> 00:24:33,199
I'm not surprised.
Excuse me?
543
00:24:33,271 --> 00:24:35,136
Oh, come on, Jack.
How can we trust anything
544
00:24:35,207 --> 00:24:36,936
on something
called upyourbutt. Net.
545
00:24:37,175 --> 00:24:39,143
It was a legitimate
court document.
546
00:24:39,211 --> 00:24:41,543
Well, if it's legitimate,
it was sealed for a reason.
547
00:24:41,847 --> 00:24:43,178
An 11-year-old
certainly has the right
548
00:24:43,248 --> 00:24:45,580
to keep the facts surrounding
his molestation private.
549
00:24:46,585 --> 00:24:48,425
He also has the right
to go public if he wants.
550
00:24:49,187 --> 00:24:50,916
You think Sammy
posted the document?
551
00:24:51,790 --> 00:24:52,882
Somebody had to.
552
00:24:55,527 --> 00:24:57,825
Man, why don't you people
get off my back?
553
00:24:58,029 --> 00:24:59,656
I just have a few questions.
554
00:24:59,965 --> 00:25:01,645
All of a sudden, Monty's
a part of my life.
555
00:25:01,700 --> 00:25:02,780
After what he did to you...
556
00:25:02,834 --> 00:25:03,994
Man, he didn't do anything.
557
00:25:04,069 --> 00:25:05,366
My father wrote his flick.
558
00:25:05,437 --> 00:25:06,870
Somehow I doubt that.
559
00:25:06,938 --> 00:25:09,406
Look, I know that you sued Monty
for molesting you, Sammy.
560
00:25:09,474 --> 00:25:10,463
What are you talking about?
561
00:25:10,542 --> 00:25:11,702
I read it on the Internet.
562
00:25:11,776 --> 00:25:12,936
How did it...
563
00:25:14,479 --> 00:25:16,071
I was wondering
if you put it there.
564
00:25:17,415 --> 00:25:19,055
Why would I do something
stupid like that?
565
00:25:26,825 --> 00:25:29,191
Because it's tough keeping
something like that inside.
566
00:25:30,128 --> 00:25:31,720
Because now that you're
older, you realize that
567
00:25:31,796 --> 00:25:33,024
Monty should be punished.
568
00:25:33,331 --> 00:25:34,696
I don't need a shrink, lady.
569
00:25:34,866 --> 00:25:36,746
He should be punished
for he what he did to you.
570
00:25:41,773 --> 00:25:43,240
I got over that a long time ago.
571
00:25:46,211 --> 00:25:47,576
You were 11 when it happened.
572
00:25:51,917 --> 00:25:53,037
I bet it was your parents...
573
00:25:53,084 --> 00:25:55,552
Look, I don't know about your
parents, but mine love me.
574
00:25:55,887 --> 00:25:58,822
If someone laid a hand on me, my
father would kill him himself.
575
00:26:01,560 --> 00:26:02,686
So just leave me alone.
576
00:26:14,105 --> 00:26:15,902
He's confused and angry.
577
00:26:15,974 --> 00:26:17,771
I don't think he posted
the deposition.
578
00:26:17,976 --> 00:26:20,501
So testifying against Bender
is out of the question.
579
00:26:21,112 --> 00:26:23,637
I think he'd like it
if it all went quietly away.
580
00:26:23,915 --> 00:26:25,405
And the wheel goes round.
581
00:26:25,483 --> 00:26:27,815
He's a kid. He's
allowed to be selfish.
582
00:26:28,687 --> 00:26:29,881
But the parents aren't.
583
00:26:31,222 --> 00:26:32,655
Monty was paying them,
not Sammy.
584
00:26:33,692 --> 00:26:34,954
They're part of the conspiracy.
585
00:26:35,927 --> 00:26:37,847
You want to charge his
parents for molesting him?
586
00:26:38,463 --> 00:26:40,863
I want someone to testify
against Monty Bender.
587
00:26:41,466 --> 00:26:42,592
Call Van Buren.
588
00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:50,631
Oh, let me get my husband.
BRISCOE: That's a good idea.
589
00:26:50,709 --> 00:26:51,733
What...
590
00:26:51,810 --> 00:26:53,641
Lucy Mireles, you're under
arrest for sexual abuse.
591
00:26:53,712 --> 00:26:55,352
What? You have the right
to remain silent.
592
00:26:55,780 --> 00:26:57,145
Stop! You're hurting me!
Anything you say
593
00:26:57,215 --> 00:26:58,614
can be used against
you in a court of law.
594
00:26:58,683 --> 00:27:01,675
You have the right to an attorney. If
you can't afford one, one will be...
595
00:27:01,753 --> 00:27:02,845
What's going on?
596
00:27:02,954 --> 00:27:05,013
You like prison movies?
I love them.
597
00:27:05,223 --> 00:27:06,383
Write about what you know.
598
00:27:06,458 --> 00:27:07,584
What are you talking about?
599
00:27:07,659 --> 00:27:09,820
You're under arrest
for sexual abuse.
600
00:27:10,095 --> 00:27:11,722
This is all a mistake.
Stay with Davey.
601
00:27:11,796 --> 00:27:13,196
You have the right
to remain silent.
602
00:27:13,264 --> 00:27:16,597
Anything you do say can and will be
used against you in a court of law.
603
00:27:17,569 --> 00:27:21,027
They pled not guilty and are threatening
to sue us for malicious prosecution.
604
00:27:22,007 --> 00:27:23,201
Who's representing them?
605
00:27:23,274 --> 00:27:24,366
You're gonna love this.
606
00:27:28,880 --> 00:27:30,780
Something tells me
this isn't a coincidence.
607
00:27:31,149 --> 00:27:33,549
Something tells me this is
your attempt at leverage.
608
00:27:34,152 --> 00:27:35,710
There was a civil suit
609
00:27:35,787 --> 00:27:37,846
between Sammy Mireles
and Monty Bender.
610
00:27:37,922 --> 00:27:40,447
You cannot turn this
into a criminal case.
611
00:27:40,725 --> 00:27:42,454
I guess we'll let a jury
decide that.
612
00:27:42,927 --> 00:27:45,589
They accepted money to keep
this case away from the police.
613
00:27:45,697 --> 00:27:47,062
That's not what happened.
614
00:27:47,132 --> 00:27:49,225
Lucy, please. Okay.
615
00:27:49,567 --> 00:27:51,364
You get a gold star
for creativity.
616
00:27:51,670 --> 00:27:53,831
But you've still got
a problem of evidence.
617
00:27:54,139 --> 00:27:57,267
Sammy's not gonna testify.
Monty's not gonna testify.
618
00:27:57,342 --> 00:27:58,809
The deposition was
already tossed...
619
00:27:58,877 --> 00:28:00,469
In the case against Monty.
620
00:28:00,979 --> 00:28:02,674
He was a party
to the civil suit.
621
00:28:03,581 --> 00:28:04,912
Sammy's parents weren't.
622
00:28:04,983 --> 00:28:06,780
Why do you want to
ruin my son's life?
623
00:28:07,018 --> 00:28:08,280
If you agree to testify
624
00:28:08,353 --> 00:28:10,273
I guarantee that Monty Bender
will accept a deal.
625
00:28:10,689 --> 00:28:12,748
Sammy will never see
the inside of a courtroom.
626
00:28:12,824 --> 00:28:14,348
Well, that's a hell
of an assumption.
627
00:28:15,093 --> 00:28:16,993
JACK: I see where
your loyalties lie, James.
628
00:28:17,696 --> 00:28:19,776
I hope he's paying you more
than he paid his masseur.
629
00:28:19,931 --> 00:28:21,956
No case,
start name calling, huh?
630
00:28:22,367 --> 00:28:24,699
Mrs. Mireles, a horrible
thing happened to your son.
631
00:28:26,071 --> 00:28:28,369
From where I sit,
this is not a tough choice.
632
00:28:28,773 --> 00:28:30,297
Do you want justice
for your son,
633
00:28:30,542 --> 00:28:33,477
or do you want to keep Monty
Bender in the pedophilia business,
634
00:28:34,012 --> 00:28:36,139
with a nice hunk of his
earnings coming your way?
635
00:28:37,048 --> 00:28:39,846
Then again, perhaps this
is a tough choice for you.
636
00:28:40,318 --> 00:28:41,478
But trust me,
637
00:28:41,553 --> 00:28:44,147
the D.A.'s office is not
going to let this go away.
638
00:28:44,222 --> 00:28:46,053
Don't say a word, Lucy.
What?
639
00:28:46,558 --> 00:28:47,923
He offered to pay you
more money?
640
00:28:48,460 --> 00:28:49,927
Bastard.
No, John.
641
00:28:49,994 --> 00:28:51,757
Do you want to know
why we took his money?
642
00:28:51,830 --> 00:28:52,922
Lucy.
643
00:28:53,531 --> 00:28:55,431
Our youngest son, he's sick.
644
00:28:56,167 --> 00:28:57,759
He was born with
a deformed heart.
645
00:28:59,938 --> 00:29:03,066
We didn't have insurance. We
couldn't pay the doctor's bills.
646
00:29:05,410 --> 00:29:08,470
We had to take his money. Davey
would have died if we didn't.
647
00:29:10,849 --> 00:29:12,646
What would any parent have done?
648
00:29:14,719 --> 00:29:15,947
(CRYING)
649
00:29:24,362 --> 00:29:26,489
So, Mrs. McGillicutty
had two boys.
650
00:29:26,998 --> 00:29:28,590
One sat on
the front porch all day,
651
00:29:28,666 --> 00:29:30,466
and the other one
went out and did the hunting
652
00:29:30,835 --> 00:29:31,961
for food, for dinner.
653
00:29:32,871 --> 00:29:36,238
The war between the states broke out,
and one day the sarge showed up,
654
00:29:36,307 --> 00:29:38,741
knocked on the door and says,
"I'm sorry, ma'am,
655
00:29:38,810 --> 00:29:41,490
"but I'm going to have to take one
of your sons into battle with me.
656
00:29:41,646 --> 00:29:43,876
"It's your choice."
What did she do?
657
00:29:44,182 --> 00:29:45,581
It's hardly the same thing.
658
00:29:46,017 --> 00:29:48,110
Well, she looked the old
sarge straight in the eye,
659
00:29:48,186 --> 00:29:49,881
and without hesitating
for a second, said,
660
00:29:50,321 --> 00:29:53,256
"You know, my husband's down by
the fishing pond. Take him."
661
00:29:54,626 --> 00:29:56,355
Now, that's natural.
That's human.
662
00:29:57,462 --> 00:29:59,862
These people sacrificed
one boy for the other.
663
00:29:59,931 --> 00:30:01,296
At least they're both alive.
664
00:30:01,699 --> 00:30:04,065
We're prosecutors, Serena,
not social workers.
665
00:30:04,302 --> 00:30:06,982
This is great. I'm the only one in
this room who doesn't have a kid.
666
00:30:07,138 --> 00:30:08,435
Why am I the only one
who understands
667
00:30:08,506 --> 00:30:10,599
the impossible position
these people were in?
668
00:30:10,675 --> 00:30:13,576
The reason someone commits a
criminal act is irrelevant.
669
00:30:13,711 --> 00:30:15,201
You can't honestly say
you wouldn't have done
670
00:30:15,280 --> 00:30:17,214
the exact same thing if these
were your grandchildren.
671
00:30:17,315 --> 00:30:18,748
I wouldn't have let
my grandchildren play
672
00:30:18,817 --> 00:30:20,614
with a 35-year-old stranger.
673
00:30:20,852 --> 00:30:22,945
Please. They couldn't have
known what would happen.
674
00:30:23,087 --> 00:30:24,247
This wasn't parenting,
675
00:30:24,455 --> 00:30:26,355
it was monstrous indifference.
676
00:30:26,424 --> 00:30:27,755
There's one kid dead.
677
00:30:27,992 --> 00:30:29,823
Which, as far as we can
tell, was an accident.
678
00:30:29,894 --> 00:30:32,294
Besides, it had nothing
to do with the Mireleses.
679
00:30:32,931 --> 00:30:35,195
"Monstrous indifference."
I like that.
680
00:30:40,905 --> 00:30:44,272
We'd drive by schoolyards, playgrounds,
places we knew kids would be.
681
00:30:45,076 --> 00:30:46,338
In the ice-cream truck?
682
00:30:46,845 --> 00:30:48,813
That's right.
I'd sell the ice cream.
683
00:30:49,514 --> 00:30:52,506
And what did Mr. Bender do while
you were serving the kids?
684
00:30:53,718 --> 00:30:56,516
He had this little compartment
off to the side of the counter,
685
00:30:57,055 --> 00:30:59,546
and he had holes drilled
into the side of the truck
686
00:30:59,624 --> 00:31:00,886
so he could watch.
687
00:31:01,559 --> 00:31:02,617
The kids?
688
00:31:03,094 --> 00:31:04,254
Yes.
689
00:31:04,329 --> 00:31:06,320
And what would typically
happen after that?
690
00:31:08,766 --> 00:31:10,393
If there was a boy he liked,
691
00:31:11,970 --> 00:31:13,369
he would signal to me.
692
00:31:14,005 --> 00:31:15,125
Then I would leave the truck
693
00:31:15,139 --> 00:31:16,697
and I'd get friendly
with the parents,
694
00:31:17,208 --> 00:31:19,574
and I'd tell them that Monty
would like to invite them
695
00:31:19,644 --> 00:31:21,805
and their son to his
estate in the Berkshires.
696
00:31:22,213 --> 00:31:24,181
Was Sammy Mireles
one of these kids?
697
00:31:24,849 --> 00:31:26,009
Yes.
698
00:31:26,417 --> 00:31:27,850
So you spoke to his parents?
699
00:31:29,554 --> 00:31:30,680
His mother.
700
00:31:30,755 --> 00:31:31,915
And what did you tell her?
701
00:31:34,926 --> 00:31:37,053
That Monty liked
to help out city kids.
702
00:31:38,997 --> 00:31:42,694
That he wanted to give her son
a weekend in the country.
703
00:31:43,501 --> 00:31:44,991
Did she accept?
Yes.
704
00:31:45,370 --> 00:31:48,237
So the next weekend, I drove Mrs.
Mireles and Sammy
705
00:31:49,040 --> 00:31:50,598
up to Monty's estate.
706
00:31:50,909 --> 00:31:52,638
Monty had this big meal ready.
707
00:31:53,144 --> 00:31:54,406
Stuff all kids would like.
708
00:31:55,113 --> 00:31:57,206
Pizza, ice cream, candy.
709
00:31:59,050 --> 00:32:01,848
And then after, he took
Sammy into his playroom,
710
00:32:02,520 --> 00:32:04,681
and I took his mom on a tour.
711
00:32:05,690 --> 00:32:07,988
Did she express
any concern whatsoever?
712
00:32:08,559 --> 00:32:11,551
No. She seemed just happy
to be out of the city.
713
00:32:12,196 --> 00:32:13,356
What was in the playroom?
714
00:32:14,432 --> 00:32:15,797
Every game you could imagine.
715
00:32:16,567 --> 00:32:17,625
Anything else?
716
00:32:20,505 --> 00:32:21,597
A bed.
717
00:32:30,181 --> 00:32:33,673
Did you ever accompany Mr. Bender
and Sammy into the playroom?
718
00:32:35,286 --> 00:32:36,286
No.
719
00:32:36,521 --> 00:32:38,386
So you never actually saw
what when on?
720
00:32:39,357 --> 00:32:40,381
No.
721
00:32:40,458 --> 00:32:41,891
So as far as you know,
722
00:32:41,960 --> 00:32:44,952
Sammy and Mr. Bender may have
actually played video games.
723
00:32:46,764 --> 00:32:47,764
I guess.
724
00:32:48,599 --> 00:32:51,796
Did Mrs. Mireles ever set
foot in the playroom?
725
00:32:54,305 --> 00:32:55,305
No.
726
00:32:57,775 --> 00:32:59,174
Why wouldn't I go up there?
727
00:32:59,544 --> 00:33:01,842
It was dirty and hot
and disgusting in the city.
728
00:33:02,213 --> 00:33:04,340
So this was just a little
getaway for the weekend?
729
00:33:04,515 --> 00:33:07,279
Yes. Mostly for Sammy. He
begged me to let him go.
730
00:33:07,585 --> 00:33:08,785
Did he want to go without you?
731
00:33:08,886 --> 00:33:10,046
That was out of the question.
732
00:33:10,054 --> 00:33:11,316
My husband and I discussed it,
733
00:33:11,389 --> 00:33:13,653
and he said I deserved a little
time away from our baby.
734
00:33:13,925 --> 00:33:16,826
So you didn't see anything off-color in Mr.
Bender's invitation?
735
00:33:17,228 --> 00:33:20,129
Of course not. He seemed
like a nice man. Famous.
736
00:33:20,565 --> 00:33:22,089
I had no reason
not to trust him.
737
00:33:22,166 --> 00:33:23,758
So when did you first learn that
738
00:33:24,168 --> 00:33:27,729
Mr. Bender allegedly touched
your son inappropriately?
739
00:33:28,439 --> 00:33:29,439
The next morning.
740
00:33:30,041 --> 00:33:31,975
I slept in a big guest bedroom.
741
00:33:32,043 --> 00:33:33,476
Sammy slept in the playroom.
742
00:33:33,778 --> 00:33:34,778
And what happened?
743
00:33:35,980 --> 00:33:38,380
I went looking for Sammy,
and I couldn't find him.
744
00:33:39,317 --> 00:33:40,750
He was locked in a bathroom.
745
00:33:41,419 --> 00:33:42,852
I thought I heard him crying.
746
00:33:43,821 --> 00:33:45,288
Did he tell you why?
747
00:33:47,525 --> 00:33:49,254
He said he didn't
like Monty anymore.
748
00:33:51,396 --> 00:33:53,261
He said Monty touched him
in bad places.
749
00:33:53,765 --> 00:33:55,005
And what did you do after that?
750
00:33:56,567 --> 00:33:57,625
I found Monty,
751
00:33:58,903 --> 00:34:00,666
and I asked him how
he could do such a thing.
752
00:34:01,406 --> 00:34:03,446
And when we got home,
my husband said we should sue.
753
00:34:04,042 --> 00:34:06,943
Now, you eventually dropped
the lawsuit, isn't that true?
754
00:34:07,145 --> 00:34:08,145
Yes.
755
00:34:08,279 --> 00:34:11,715
Sammy told us that things really didn't
happen the way he said in his deposition.
756
00:34:12,183 --> 00:34:13,980
It wasn't really
that bad, he said.
757
00:34:15,086 --> 00:34:17,054
He didn't want to follow
through with the lawsuit,
758
00:34:17,488 --> 00:34:19,648
and that's when Mr. Bender
agreed to give us the money.
759
00:34:19,991 --> 00:34:21,720
So you never went to the police.
760
00:34:22,026 --> 00:34:24,790
I knew it was wrong,
but our son Davey,
761
00:34:25,763 --> 00:34:29,164
the doctors said that he would
need at least three operations.
762
00:34:30,001 --> 00:34:31,832
We had no way to pay for it.
763
00:34:31,903 --> 00:34:34,633
They said he would die
if we didn't do something.
764
00:34:35,139 --> 00:34:38,666
And Mr. Bender's money
paid for those operations?
765
00:34:39,177 --> 00:34:40,735
That's right.
Eight of them.
766
00:34:45,416 --> 00:34:47,748
You didn't think
it was strange that
767
00:34:48,152 --> 00:34:51,918
a man in his thirties wanted to
play with your 11-year-old son?
768
00:34:52,557 --> 00:34:54,388
No. Why would I?
769
00:34:55,059 --> 00:34:57,493
Who thinks about those things
with someone like Mr. Bender?
770
00:34:57,628 --> 00:34:58,720
I see.
771
00:34:58,863 --> 00:35:01,161
Did you let Sammy walk
to school by himself?
772
00:35:01,866 --> 00:35:02,866
Of course not.
773
00:35:03,000 --> 00:35:04,865
Go to the movies?
No.
774
00:35:05,403 --> 00:35:06,802
A ball game?
No.
775
00:35:07,238 --> 00:35:08,262
Why not?
776
00:35:08,339 --> 00:35:09,772
Because something could happen.
777
00:35:09,841 --> 00:35:11,672
A stranger might hurt him.
778
00:35:12,076 --> 00:35:13,100
This was different.
779
00:35:13,277 --> 00:35:15,404
Why?
Because he's famous?
780
00:35:16,080 --> 00:35:17,080
Yes.
781
00:35:17,381 --> 00:35:18,609
Because he's rich?
782
00:35:19,217 --> 00:35:21,344
We saw him on TV and movies.
783
00:35:21,752 --> 00:35:22,980
We felt like we knew him.
784
00:35:23,421 --> 00:35:26,151
I don't really see the
distinction, but that's okay.
785
00:35:26,624 --> 00:35:28,524
Now, you say you took the money
786
00:35:28,593 --> 00:35:30,891
to get medical treatment
for your younger son.
787
00:35:31,095 --> 00:35:32,756
Is that right?
Yes.
788
00:35:33,197 --> 00:35:36,291
And all you had to do
was drop the suit
789
00:35:37,401 --> 00:35:39,198
and not notify the police.
790
00:35:40,104 --> 00:35:41,662
What happened to Sammy happened.
791
00:35:41,739 --> 00:35:43,400
There was nothing
I could do about it.
792
00:35:43,474 --> 00:35:45,305
I needed the money.
You needed the money?
793
00:35:45,376 --> 00:35:47,810
What about Sammy?
Wasn't he the victim here?
794
00:35:50,014 --> 00:35:53,313
Tell me, where were you living
when you first met Mr. Bender?
795
00:35:54,986 --> 00:35:56,453
119th and First.
796
00:35:56,954 --> 00:35:58,148
Spanish Harlem.
797
00:35:58,689 --> 00:36:00,054
Where do you live now?
798
00:36:01,359 --> 00:36:02,587
Riverside Drive.
799
00:36:02,660 --> 00:36:04,321
Certainly moving up
in the world.
800
00:36:04,395 --> 00:36:05,692
Objection.
Withdrawn.
801
00:36:08,166 --> 00:36:10,046
What did your husband
do for a living back then?
802
00:36:11,736 --> 00:36:12,930
He washed dishes.
803
00:36:13,004 --> 00:36:14,062
And now?
804
00:36:15,506 --> 00:36:16,666
He goes to school.
805
00:36:16,741 --> 00:36:18,766
So it appears that your sick son
806
00:36:18,843 --> 00:36:21,835
isn't the only one who benefited from Mr.
Bender's generosity.
807
00:36:21,946 --> 00:36:24,915
We never would have touched his
money if Davey didn't need it.
808
00:36:25,183 --> 00:36:28,311
I see. You're just
collaterally venal.
809
00:36:28,386 --> 00:36:29,546
Objection, Your Honor.
810
00:36:29,820 --> 00:36:30,820
JACK: Withdrawn.
811
00:36:34,525 --> 00:36:37,255
I was 11. It was the greatest
place I'd ever seen.
812
00:36:37,495 --> 00:36:38,621
So you enjoyed yourself?
813
00:36:39,096 --> 00:36:40,324
Sure. At first.
814
00:36:40,598 --> 00:36:41,656
What changed?
815
00:36:41,766 --> 00:36:43,233
I mean, I had a great time.
816
00:36:43,601 --> 00:36:45,466
Monty had every toy
and game in the world.
817
00:36:45,536 --> 00:36:46,662
We played until late.
818
00:36:46,771 --> 00:36:47,931
And then what happened?
819
00:36:48,005 --> 00:36:49,097
I fell asleep.
820
00:36:49,173 --> 00:36:51,368
That's not what you told
your mother, is it?
821
00:36:52,643 --> 00:36:53,643
No.
822
00:36:54,512 --> 00:36:56,343
GRANICK: Why were you locked
in the bathroom crying?
823
00:36:56,547 --> 00:36:57,912
I had such a good time.
824
00:36:58,783 --> 00:37:01,115
I thought about Davey,
and I got sad.
825
00:37:01,819 --> 00:37:03,619
Well, why didn't you
tell that to your mother?
826
00:37:03,921 --> 00:37:08,221
Because I heard her cry herself
to sleep every night about Davey.
827
00:37:08,826 --> 00:37:10,350
I didn't want
to make her sadder.
828
00:37:10,695 --> 00:37:12,663
GRANICK: So
you made up a story?
829
00:37:14,832 --> 00:37:18,165
In school they taught us
to watch out for perverts.
830
00:37:19,237 --> 00:37:20,797
It was the first thing
I could think of.
831
00:37:28,446 --> 00:37:31,040
Did you tell this to
Detectives Briscoe and Green
832
00:37:31,115 --> 00:37:32,810
when they interviewed you?
833
00:37:33,351 --> 00:37:34,375
SAMMY: No.
834
00:37:35,286 --> 00:37:37,379
A.D.A. Southerlyn?
No.
835
00:37:37,922 --> 00:37:39,150
Why not?
836
00:37:39,757 --> 00:37:40,757
I don't know.
837
00:37:41,058 --> 00:37:42,218
But you're telling it now
838
00:37:42,293 --> 00:37:44,318
because you don't want your
parents to go to jail?
839
00:37:44,895 --> 00:37:46,089
That's what happened.
840
00:37:50,201 --> 00:37:51,930
Did you ever tell
your parents the truth?
841
00:37:52,937 --> 00:37:54,996
No. I didn't want them
to give back the money.
842
00:37:55,072 --> 00:37:56,130
We needed it for Davey.
843
00:37:56,207 --> 00:37:57,367
For Davey, I know.
844
00:37:58,175 --> 00:38:00,075
If Monty actually
did this stuff to me,
845
00:38:01,212 --> 00:38:02,975
why would I stay
two more nights?
846
00:38:03,047 --> 00:38:04,480
We didn't leave
until Monday night.
847
00:38:05,082 --> 00:38:06,709
Hell, why not stay
the whole week?
848
00:38:07,251 --> 00:38:08,411
I had school.
849
00:38:08,686 --> 00:38:10,551
So you were having enough fun
850
00:38:10,621 --> 00:38:12,612
to miss one day, but not five?
851
00:38:13,524 --> 00:38:16,459
It was Labor Day weekend. There
was no school on Monday.
852
00:38:17,628 --> 00:38:21,120
Did you ever receive
any of Mr. Bender's money?
853
00:38:21,632 --> 00:38:22,826
It was for Davey.
854
00:38:22,967 --> 00:38:24,298
But you were going to college...
855
00:38:37,715 --> 00:38:40,013
Your Honor, may I resume
my cross tomorrow?
856
00:38:40,318 --> 00:38:41,876
JUDGE: Any objections,
Mr. Granick?
857
00:38:41,952 --> 00:38:43,385
No, Judge.
858
00:38:43,454 --> 00:38:45,081
Court is recessed
until tomorrow.
859
00:38:45,156 --> 00:38:46,214
(BANGS GAVEL)
860
00:38:46,290 --> 00:38:48,850
When was the first check
written to the Mireleses?
861
00:38:52,096 --> 00:38:53,927
August 27th, 1997.
862
00:38:55,766 --> 00:38:56,926
Round them all up.
863
00:38:58,736 --> 00:38:59,736
JACK: Okay.
864
00:39:00,771 --> 00:39:04,366
I think everyone in this room has
a right to know what's going on.
865
00:39:05,009 --> 00:39:08,103
Jack, you're losing. I'm the one
who should be acting arrogant.
866
00:39:09,747 --> 00:39:12,147
The weekend you spent
at Bender's estate,
867
00:39:12,550 --> 00:39:14,074
you're sure
it was Labor Day weekend?
868
00:39:14,251 --> 00:39:15,377
That's what I said.
869
00:39:15,653 --> 00:39:17,245
You don't want to
check your calendar?
870
00:39:17,688 --> 00:39:18,746
SAMMY: What's
he talking about?
871
00:39:18,823 --> 00:39:20,950
While you're at it, you might
want to explain perjury to him.
872
00:39:21,025 --> 00:39:22,890
I know what it is.
I'm telling the truth.
873
00:39:23,728 --> 00:39:25,218
No, you're not.
874
00:39:25,296 --> 00:39:26,627
But that's irrelevant right now.
875
00:39:29,166 --> 00:39:30,463
Sammy,
876
00:39:32,937 --> 00:39:34,837
your parents were
paid a million dollars
877
00:39:37,775 --> 00:39:39,766
the week before you
went up to Monty's estate.
878
00:39:55,426 --> 00:39:56,426
No way.
879
00:39:56,494 --> 00:39:57,494
Let's go.
880
00:39:57,561 --> 00:39:59,893
SERENA: The check was
dated August 27th.
881
00:40:00,698 --> 00:40:03,132
Labor Day in '97
was September 1st.
882
00:40:03,334 --> 00:40:04,995
That has nothing to do
with anything.
883
00:40:08,839 --> 00:40:10,033
You sold me?
884
00:40:10,107 --> 00:40:11,335
It wasn't like that.
885
00:40:11,609 --> 00:40:12,735
What was it like?
886
00:40:12,810 --> 00:40:15,938
It was only one time,
Sammy. We did it for Davey.
887
00:40:16,013 --> 00:40:17,173
What about me!
888
00:40:20,484 --> 00:40:24,352
I was 11 years old. You knew
what he was gonna do to me!
889
00:40:24,488 --> 00:40:25,978
You weren't going to die.
890
00:40:26,190 --> 00:40:27,748
What do you call this?
891
00:40:27,825 --> 00:40:29,019
We'll talk about this later.
892
00:40:29,093 --> 00:40:30,093
Like hell.
893
00:40:37,435 --> 00:40:38,959
Can I testify again?
894
00:40:54,118 --> 00:40:55,585
He wanted to have
a pillow fight.
895
00:40:56,921 --> 00:40:57,945
JACK: Where were you?
896
00:40:59,523 --> 00:41:00,785
He called it the playroom.
897
00:41:01,425 --> 00:41:02,483
It was fun.
898
00:41:02,993 --> 00:41:03,993
Until?
899
00:41:05,062 --> 00:41:06,188
He kind of tackled me
900
00:41:06,931 --> 00:41:07,931
onto the bed
901
00:41:08,866 --> 00:41:10,333
and started rubbing me all over.
902
00:41:12,503 --> 00:41:13,663
Did you tell him to stop?
903
00:41:14,939 --> 00:41:16,167
I was 11.
904
00:41:17,541 --> 00:41:18,633
I didn't know what to do.
905
00:41:20,878 --> 00:41:22,345
I didn't want to
make him feel bad.
906
00:41:24,048 --> 00:41:26,380
He kept telling me
how much he loved me.
907
00:41:28,719 --> 00:41:32,416
He rubbed my hair over and over
and said that I was beautiful.
908
00:41:34,124 --> 00:41:35,591
What else do you remember?
909
00:41:37,695 --> 00:41:40,163
There was, like,
this tile ceiling.
910
00:41:41,232 --> 00:41:42,529
I remember staring at it.
911
00:41:43,300 --> 00:41:45,165
The way the light hit it,
I could see stuff,
912
00:41:46,203 --> 00:41:48,933
like faces looking back at me.
913
00:41:50,474 --> 00:41:52,567
So, I stared at the faces
the whole time.
914
00:41:53,944 --> 00:41:55,172
The whole time what?
915
00:41:57,081 --> 00:41:58,605
The whole time
916
00:41:59,049 --> 00:42:00,516
he did oral sex to me.
917
00:42:03,888 --> 00:42:05,412
And after that?
918
00:42:07,258 --> 00:42:08,555
We had ice cream.
919
00:42:11,395 --> 00:42:14,057
I saw my mother
look into the kitchen.
920
00:42:16,033 --> 00:42:18,467
I called out to her,
but she wouldn't come in.
921
00:42:20,538 --> 00:42:22,836
The next morning, when you
told your mom what happened,
922
00:42:23,140 --> 00:42:24,140
what did she say?
923
00:42:27,578 --> 00:42:29,739
She told me to keep
my mouth shut.
924
00:42:31,849 --> 00:42:33,646
That this was our only chance.
925
00:42:35,419 --> 00:42:36,818
She knew.
926
00:42:38,689 --> 00:42:40,088
She set the whole thing up.
927
00:42:42,626 --> 00:42:45,789
She knew exactly what
he was gonna do to me
928
00:42:46,497 --> 00:42:47,657
before he did it.
929
00:43:01,512 --> 00:43:04,242
Ladies and gentlemen of the jury,
have you reached a verdict?
930
00:43:04,515 --> 00:43:05,641
Yes, Your Honor, we have.
931
00:43:06,216 --> 00:43:07,911
On the sole count of
the indictment,
932
00:43:08,018 --> 00:43:10,612
Conspiracy to Commit Sexual
Abuse in the First Degree,
933
00:43:11,388 --> 00:43:12,388
how do you find?
934
00:43:12,856 --> 00:43:16,314
We find the defendants,
John and Lucy Mireles,
935
00:43:16,927 --> 00:43:18,394
guilty as charged.
936
00:43:46,557 --> 00:43:49,788
Monty was arrested, charged with
sexual abuse, and denied bail.
937
00:43:50,160 --> 00:43:52,822
All in front of a phalanx
of paparazzi, I hope.
938
00:43:53,230 --> 00:43:54,288
Phalanx and a half.
939
00:43:54,498 --> 00:43:56,796
At last we have someone
to testify against him.
940
00:43:56,867 --> 00:43:59,628
Looks like being rich and famous
doesn't get you as far as it used to.
941
00:44:05,676 --> 00:44:07,735
The Mireleses knew
it might come to this
942
00:44:07,811 --> 00:44:09,210
when they made their choice.
943
00:44:09,279 --> 00:44:12,119
No, Jack, I don't think that they
thought they were going to go to jail.
944
00:44:14,084 --> 00:44:15,517
The one thing I can't
get out of my head is
945
00:44:15,586 --> 00:44:17,266
that they did this
to keep their kid alive,
946
00:44:17,855 --> 00:44:19,855
and now he's going to have
to grow up without them.
947
00:44:20,124 --> 00:44:27,318
He's better off.
