Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:00,900 --> 00:00:02,620
In the criminal justice system
2
00:00:02,700 --> 00:00:06,570
the people are represented
by two separate
yet equally important groups,
3
00:00:06,630 --> 00:00:08,470
the police
who investigate crime
4
00:00:08,540 --> 00:00:11,330
and the district attorneys
who prosecute the offenders.
5
00:00:11,410 --> 00:00:13,100
These are their stories.
6
00:00:14,180 --> 00:00:15,570
It's gotta be
in here someplace.
7
00:00:15,640 --> 00:00:17,580
We're supposed
to be at City Hall
in 15 minutes!
8
00:00:17,650 --> 00:00:21,580
Don't worry, baby,
I'm gonna fix the flat
and I'll get us there on time.
9
00:00:21,650 --> 00:00:24,740
Well, watch out!
If you dirty up the tuxedo,
they'll make me pay for it.
10
00:00:24,820 --> 00:00:25,910
Yeah.
11
00:00:29,790 --> 00:00:31,780
I think my brother
borrowed the jack.
12
00:00:31,860 --> 00:00:35,590
Your brother?
I'm marrying
a family of morons!
13
00:00:35,660 --> 00:00:37,650
Maybe this guy
has a jack.
14
00:00:41,940 --> 00:00:43,840
There's nobody in here.
15
00:00:48,910 --> 00:00:50,070
Maria!
16
00:00:51,610 --> 00:00:54,240
Door was unlocked.
This is how we found him.
17
00:00:54,320 --> 00:00:56,220
Somebody did
a number on his head.
18
00:00:56,280 --> 00:00:57,910
Defensive wounds
on the hands.
19
00:00:57,990 --> 00:00:58,980
ID?
20
00:00:59,050 --> 00:01:01,150
Not on the body.
No wallet, no money.
21
00:01:01,220 --> 00:01:04,820
I've heard that song
before. No hits,
no runs, no errors.
22
00:01:04,890 --> 00:01:05,950
What about the van?
23
00:01:06,030 --> 00:01:08,830
Registered to
a Donald Gibson.
Brooklyn address.
24
00:01:08,900 --> 00:01:10,830
Do we think
that's Mr. Gibson?
25
00:01:10,900 --> 00:01:12,890
That or his twin brother.
26
00:01:13,970 --> 00:01:16,160
Oh, yeah.
I see what you mean.
27
00:01:16,810 --> 00:01:20,830
Hey, do me a favor.
Make my lieutenant happy
and roll his prints.
28
00:01:20,910 --> 00:01:24,040
So the witness
pulled in at 8:00 a. m.,
the van was sitting here.
29
00:01:24,110 --> 00:01:25,270
Beside the
bride and groom,
30
00:01:25,350 --> 00:01:27,040
he doesn't remember
anybody near it.
31
00:01:27,120 --> 00:01:28,880
Oh, from the blood
smears on the floor,
32
00:01:28,950 --> 00:01:31,250
it looks like
he was dragged in
after the beating.
33
00:01:31,320 --> 00:01:32,950
Anything turn up
in the parking area?
34
00:01:33,020 --> 00:01:34,550
No blood,
no murder weapon.
35
00:01:34,620 --> 00:01:35,750
Thanks.
36
00:01:35,820 --> 00:01:37,520
Hell of a way to
start a life together.
37
00:01:37,590 --> 00:01:38,960
Or end one.
38
00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:32,510
M.E. makes the time of death
between 10:00 last night
and 2:00 this morning.
39
00:02:32,580 --> 00:02:34,280
How many blows
to the head
did he take?
40
00:02:34,350 --> 00:02:36,580
One. But he got
worked over pretty
good before that.
41
00:02:36,650 --> 00:02:38,740
Two shattered ulnae,
fractured ribs.
42
00:02:38,820 --> 00:02:40,450
Internal bleeding
from his vital organs.
43
00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:42,750
A little over-the-top
for a straight-up robbery.
44
00:02:42,820 --> 00:02:45,820
Yeah. Maybe he forgot
to say "please"
and "thank you. "
45
00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:48,330
Oh, my God.
46
00:02:50,570 --> 00:02:52,060
That's Donnie.
47
00:02:53,640 --> 00:02:55,630
Look what they
did to him.
48
00:02:57,140 --> 00:02:58,940
Can I get some water?
49
00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:02,640
You okay to continue,
Mrs. Gibson?
50
00:03:05,350 --> 00:03:07,640
When was the last time
you spoke to your husband?
51
00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:11,450
Uh, yesterday morning,
when he left for the office.
52
00:03:12,620 --> 00:03:14,550
He didn't come
home after work?
53
00:03:14,620 --> 00:03:16,720
Donnie meets
clients at night.
54
00:03:16,790 --> 00:03:18,380
We found your
husband's van.
55
00:03:18,460 --> 00:03:20,390
He installs
audio systems?
56
00:03:20,460 --> 00:03:23,290
For clubs, restaurants,
that kind of thing.
57
00:03:24,170 --> 00:03:26,460
Was Donnie having
trouble with anybody?
58
00:03:28,470 --> 00:03:29,960
Not like that.
59
00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:32,410
Like what then?
60
00:03:33,170 --> 00:03:35,870
We understand this
is hard, Mrs. Gibson.
61
00:03:39,380 --> 00:03:41,370
Donnie's kind of loud.
62
00:03:41,450 --> 00:03:43,640
People take it
the wrong way
sometimes.
63
00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:45,210
But he never means
anything by it.
64
00:03:45,950 --> 00:03:48,580
Well, we noticed your
husband was convicted
in a federal court
65
00:03:48,660 --> 00:03:49,990
for buying
stolen goods.
66
00:03:50,060 --> 00:03:51,960
That was seven years ago.
67
00:03:52,030 --> 00:03:54,460
Donnie bought
a few amplifiers off
a boat in New Jersey.
68
00:03:54,530 --> 00:03:55,860
He didn't even
go to jail.
69
00:03:55,930 --> 00:03:57,590
Is there
any reason to think
that he'd be involved
70
00:03:57,670 --> 00:03:59,260
in something
like that recently?
71
00:03:59,330 --> 00:04:01,360
The only reason
he did that
72
00:04:03,940 --> 00:04:06,130
was because
business was slow.
73
00:04:08,410 --> 00:04:10,400
He was a good husband.
74
00:04:11,650 --> 00:04:14,440
These are your husband's
personal effects.
75
00:04:23,930 --> 00:04:25,420
His wallet's not here.
76
00:04:26,490 --> 00:04:28,660
We assume it was
taken in the robbery.
77
00:04:30,830 --> 00:04:33,560
Donnie kept our
wedding picture in there.
78
00:04:37,470 --> 00:04:40,870
I was wondering
why Mr. Gibson didn't
come to work today.
79
00:04:40,940 --> 00:04:42,670
I tried
calling his wife.
80
00:04:42,740 --> 00:04:44,370
Yeah.
She's at the precinct.
81
00:04:44,450 --> 00:04:45,810
I hope she's okay.
82
00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:48,710
Was Mr. Gibson having
any problems at work?
83
00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:50,980
Not that I know of.
84
00:04:51,050 --> 00:04:55,080
His biggest worry
was how to make the
company grow faster.
85
00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:56,620
Where was he yesterday?
86
00:04:56,690 --> 00:04:59,490
He was doing
an installation
in Flatbush.
87
00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:01,150
A disco.
88
00:05:01,230 --> 00:05:03,320
Mr. Gibson was
going to get me
and my boyfriend
89
00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:05,260
put on the guest list
when they opened.
90
00:05:05,330 --> 00:05:07,100
He was nice like that.
91
00:05:07,170 --> 00:05:08,660
Did he come
into work first?
92
00:05:08,740 --> 00:05:12,370
Just for an hour or so.
He stopped at the bank
on his way in.
93
00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:14,700
He needed some cash
before he left
for Brooklyn.
94
00:05:14,780 --> 00:05:15,770
How much cash?
95
00:05:15,840 --> 00:05:17,280
$4,000.
96
00:05:17,350 --> 00:05:19,510
He gave me
the withdrawal slip
to put in the books.
97
00:05:19,580 --> 00:05:21,480
He say what it was for?
98
00:05:21,550 --> 00:05:22,680
It came out of
the business account.
99
00:05:22,750 --> 00:05:25,340
It must have had something
to do with the job
he was working on.
100
00:05:25,420 --> 00:05:27,510
Did he usually walk around
with that kind of money?
101
00:05:27,590 --> 00:05:29,020
No.
102
00:05:29,090 --> 00:05:33,050
Well, one time
he bought his wife
a pearl necklace.
103
00:05:34,260 --> 00:05:36,290
Oh, I feel
so bad for her.
104
00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:38,300
Donnie pulled
in about 12:00.
105
00:05:38,370 --> 00:05:39,960
Spent his day
wiring the DJ booth
106
00:05:40,030 --> 00:05:41,430
and running sound
to the bathrooms.
107
00:05:41,500 --> 00:05:42,900
When did he leave?
108
00:05:42,970 --> 00:05:44,940
8:30, 9:00.
Big hurry.
109
00:05:45,010 --> 00:05:46,370
Something important
to take care of.
110
00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:48,970
He say what?
Nah, I'm not sure.
111
00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:50,070
Take a guess.
112
00:05:52,610 --> 00:05:54,810
Look, this guy is dead...
113
00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:56,870
You don't need
to worry about
his reputation.
114
00:05:56,950 --> 00:06:00,320
So what? He went out to go
buy some audio equipment
for your club here?
115
00:06:00,390 --> 00:06:02,820
He took out $4,000
before he came here.
116
00:06:02,890 --> 00:06:06,590
Now what do you need
that costs four grand?
Four grand, hot?
117
00:06:07,300 --> 00:06:08,490
Can I get in
trouble for this?
118
00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:11,560
Relax. We're not
looking for a stolen
property collar.
119
00:06:13,130 --> 00:06:15,470
Speakers.
For the dance floor.
120
00:06:16,100 --> 00:06:17,570
Did Gibson say
where he was
gonna get 'em?
121
00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:18,630
No.
122
00:06:19,470 --> 00:06:20,940
You guys didn't happen
to come across
123
00:06:21,010 --> 00:06:24,030
four audio-acoustic 960s
in that van, did you?
124
00:06:24,110 --> 00:06:25,840
Sorry.
Then I'm screwed.
125
00:06:27,380 --> 00:06:31,650
So, Gibson went to
pick up some speakers,
at night, for cash.
126
00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:34,090
Let's see if he
looked up his friends
from New Jersey.
127
00:06:37,890 --> 00:06:38,880
Donnie's dead?
128
00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:40,190
He was killed
Tuesday night.
129
00:06:40,260 --> 00:06:41,250
You know
anything about it?
130
00:06:41,330 --> 00:06:43,260
Oh, man,
sorry to hear that.
131
00:06:43,330 --> 00:06:45,960
We see you, uh,
converted your
criminal know-how
132
00:06:46,030 --> 00:06:47,190
into something
more productive.
133
00:06:47,270 --> 00:06:48,790
Yeah, 30 months
in a jumpsuit,
134
00:06:48,870 --> 00:06:50,340
tie and jacket looked
pretty attractive.
135
00:06:50,770 --> 00:06:52,930
Your old pal
Donnie Gibson
only got probation.
136
00:06:53,310 --> 00:06:54,300
What are you sayin'?
137
00:06:54,380 --> 00:06:56,040
You got cause
to be resentful.
138
00:06:56,110 --> 00:06:57,740
Maybe he ratted you
out to get his deal.
139
00:07:03,820 --> 00:07:06,150
I had priors,
Gibson was a virgin.
140
00:07:06,790 --> 00:07:08,520
So where were you
Tuesday night?
141
00:07:08,590 --> 00:07:10,180
Look, the only reason
I'm gonna tell you this
142
00:07:10,260 --> 00:07:11,350
is 'cause I didn't
do nothing.
143
00:07:11,630 --> 00:07:14,190
I was with Gibson
at a strip joint.
144
00:07:15,060 --> 00:07:16,930
Guys and Dolls,
on the Upper East Side.
145
00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:20,560
So, it's just a coincidence
Gibson was out
with his old fence?
146
00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:23,130
I haven't been near
a piece of swag since
before Lewisburg.
147
00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:25,070
Maybe you were
brokering the deal.
148
00:07:25,140 --> 00:07:28,700
Look, fellas, Gibson
said he was gonna pick up
some merchandise.
149
00:07:28,780 --> 00:07:30,510
I told him I didn't
wanna know from it.
150
00:07:30,580 --> 00:07:31,600
What time was that?
151
00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:32,670
Around 11:00.
152
00:07:32,750 --> 00:07:35,220
I hung out a while longer.
The girls will tell you.
153
00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:36,410
You got
their names?
154
00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:38,280
My first time there.
155
00:07:38,350 --> 00:07:41,010
His girl was a blonde
wearing this
schoolgirl thing.
156
00:07:41,090 --> 00:07:43,560
Uh, plaid mini-skirt,
knee socks.
157
00:07:43,620 --> 00:07:44,720
And yours?
158
00:07:44,790 --> 00:07:47,690
Redhead, a cop outfit.
159
00:07:50,830 --> 00:07:51,820
Lucky Martin?
160
00:07:51,900 --> 00:07:53,630
Our clientele
don't have nicknames,
detectives.
161
00:07:53,700 --> 00:07:57,070
They have initials
after their names,
M.D., J.D.
162
00:07:57,140 --> 00:07:59,330
Yeah.
And they all come here
to see the double Ds.
163
00:07:59,410 --> 00:08:02,740
Oh, no. We're
not a strip club.
We're a rudy club.
164
00:08:02,810 --> 00:08:04,640
And what's that,
a poetry reading?
165
00:08:04,710 --> 00:08:06,150
Is there something
I can do for you guys
166
00:08:06,210 --> 00:08:08,410
or are you just here
to poke fun at how
I make a living?
167
00:08:08,480 --> 00:08:11,080
Did you see a guy named
Donnie Gibson in here
on Tuesday night?
168
00:08:11,790 --> 00:08:13,720
I don't know
if he was here,
but I know the name.
169
00:08:13,790 --> 00:08:15,220
What?
He's a regular?
170
00:08:15,290 --> 00:08:17,480
Three years ago,
we bought the club,
took it out of the gutter.
171
00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:19,390
Donnie did our
sound system.
172
00:08:19,460 --> 00:08:21,860
Oh, detectives,
my partner, Tom Wilder.
173
00:08:21,930 --> 00:08:22,950
What's this all about?
174
00:08:23,030 --> 00:08:25,000
Donnie Gibson
was killed
Tuesday night.
175
00:08:25,070 --> 00:08:26,290
Oh, my God.
176
00:08:26,370 --> 00:08:27,800
They think
he was here, Tom.
177
00:08:27,870 --> 00:08:31,100
Great. More bad press.
Just what we need with
Guiliani cracking down.
178
00:08:31,640 --> 00:08:33,070
You remember
seeing Gibson?
179
00:08:33,140 --> 00:08:34,160
No, I don't.
180
00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:36,070
One of your girls
was with Gibson.
181
00:08:36,140 --> 00:08:38,110
Blonde, schoolgirl costume.
182
00:08:39,110 --> 00:08:40,380
Kimberly.
183
00:08:41,020 --> 00:08:42,540
Donnie Gibson?
184
00:08:42,620 --> 00:08:44,550
Hmm. Doesn't ring a bell.
185
00:08:44,620 --> 00:08:47,140
The men who come
here don't usually
give their names.
186
00:08:47,220 --> 00:08:48,850
How about a face?
187
00:08:49,920 --> 00:08:52,220
Yeah. He kind of
looks familiar.
188
00:08:52,290 --> 00:08:53,920
I don't remember him
from Tuesday.
189
00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:57,930
Gibson's friend said
that you danced for him
between 10:00 and 11:00.
190
00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:00,930
I'm sorry,
I just don't
remember the guy.
191
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:02,730
I work a 10-hour shift,
six days a week.
192
00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:05,200
So, a lot of faces.
193
00:09:05,270 --> 00:09:08,400
I have to change,
so if you don't mind...
194
00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:10,240
Oh, you an actress?
195
00:09:10,310 --> 00:09:14,480
Yeah. I'm trying to be.
I've been in a commercial
and two indie films.
196
00:09:14,550 --> 00:09:16,920
And I take classes. Why?
197
00:09:17,390 --> 00:09:20,120
Oh, I got a nephew
in Hollywood.
He's an agent.
198
00:09:20,190 --> 00:09:22,090
He's always looking
for new faces.
199
00:09:22,160 --> 00:09:23,350
Thanks.
200
00:09:23,820 --> 00:09:25,290
Now the cop.
201
00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:27,020
Can you guys
make it quick?
202
00:09:27,090 --> 00:09:28,650
I gotta cram
for my psyche exam
203
00:09:28,730 --> 00:09:30,360
before the
happy hour crunch.
204
00:09:30,430 --> 00:09:32,800
Wouldn't you do
better in a library?
205
00:09:32,870 --> 00:09:36,130
Hey, I'm covering my
tuition and fulfilling
a public service.
206
00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:37,430
Oh, which one's that?
207
00:09:38,070 --> 00:09:39,400
Read the literature.
208
00:09:39,470 --> 00:09:42,200
Clubs like this,
they boost a man's
testosterone level.
209
00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:43,770
He leaves here
feeling confident.
210
00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:45,000
More productive.
211
00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:46,100
And broke.
212
00:09:46,180 --> 00:09:47,410
Then everybody's happy.
213
00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:49,970
Tuesday night,
you were teamed up
with Kimberly?
214
00:09:50,050 --> 00:09:51,310
So?
215
00:09:51,390 --> 00:09:53,550
Look, one of your
customers was murdered.
216
00:09:55,090 --> 00:09:57,020
Kimberly asked me
to sit with her
for a while.
217
00:09:57,090 --> 00:09:59,320
She said she knew
one of the guys,
Donnie.
218
00:09:59,390 --> 00:10:00,830
How well did they
know each other?
219
00:10:00,900 --> 00:10:02,490
I once saw them
picking out a baby doll
220
00:10:02,560 --> 00:10:04,760
from the
Victoria's Secret
catalogue.
221
00:10:04,830 --> 00:10:06,460
Was she seeing Donnie
outside of work?
222
00:10:06,970 --> 00:10:08,400
We're not really close.
223
00:10:08,470 --> 00:10:10,800
So the two of you
just happened to be
working this guy
224
00:10:10,870 --> 00:10:12,000
the night he got killed?
225
00:10:12,070 --> 00:10:13,540
She said he was
a good tipper.
226
00:10:13,610 --> 00:10:14,600
Was he?
227
00:10:14,680 --> 00:10:16,370
I never got a chance
to find out.
228
00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:19,240
Kimberly broke up
the party when she went
to return a phone call.
229
00:10:19,310 --> 00:10:20,970
Any idea who
the call was from?
230
00:10:21,750 --> 00:10:22,840
Not really.
231
00:10:23,450 --> 00:10:25,010
Is that the best
you can do?
232
00:10:26,950 --> 00:10:28,950
Donnie seemed to know
what was going on.
233
00:10:29,020 --> 00:10:31,510
Right after that,
he got his coat.
234
00:10:31,590 --> 00:10:34,430
And I saw him
talking to Kimberly
before he left.
235
00:10:34,900 --> 00:10:36,090
Thanks.
236
00:10:37,670 --> 00:10:40,600
Sounds like the phone call
was Gibson's
speaker connection.
237
00:10:40,670 --> 00:10:42,330
Funny Kimberly
forgot to mention it.
238
00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:44,100
Not if
she was the one
who set him up.
239
00:10:44,170 --> 00:10:46,900
Before we rattle her cage,
let's get the LUDs
from the club
240
00:10:46,970 --> 00:10:49,070
and find out
who she called.
241
00:10:52,250 --> 00:10:54,180
Tuesday night,
there was nobody
on the pay phone.
242
00:10:54,250 --> 00:10:56,050
This would've been
a little before 11:00.
243
00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:58,210
We close at 11:00.
There was nobody here.
244
00:10:58,290 --> 00:11:02,480
Hey, Pete, didn't that
guy Sean order a pie
right before we closed up?
245
00:11:02,560 --> 00:11:04,750
I think your head's
spending a little bit
too much time in the oven.
246
00:11:04,830 --> 00:11:06,020
He wasn't
on the phone.
247
00:11:06,090 --> 00:11:08,080
You remember this
Sean taking a call?
248
00:11:08,160 --> 00:11:09,790
Yeah, the phone rang
and he picked it up.
249
00:11:09,860 --> 00:11:11,460
Know who
he was talking to?
250
00:11:12,070 --> 00:11:13,730
You recognize her?
251
00:11:14,140 --> 00:11:15,120
She an actress?
252
00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:16,500
She moonlights
at a hooter bar
253
00:11:16,570 --> 00:11:18,270
when she's not playing
Lady Macbeth.
254
00:11:18,340 --> 00:11:20,070
I think it's time
you shut your mouth,
Augie.
255
00:11:20,140 --> 00:11:21,870
Hey, you want to face
an obstructing charge?
256
00:11:22,810 --> 00:11:24,110
I don't know her.
257
00:11:24,180 --> 00:11:25,540
Where can
we find Sean?
258
00:11:25,610 --> 00:11:28,380
Yeah. Probably in
the parking lot near
the Spotsfield Mall sign.
259
00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:29,740
Thanks.
260
00:11:36,390 --> 00:11:38,820
Which one
of you is Sean?
261
00:11:38,890 --> 00:11:40,090
Hey, you don't
like the band?
262
00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:41,790
Not at 100 decibels.
263
00:11:41,860 --> 00:11:42,850
Where you guys from?
264
00:11:42,930 --> 00:11:44,190
NYPD.
265
00:11:44,270 --> 00:11:45,790
Didn't yous guys
see the sign
on your way here?
266
00:11:45,870 --> 00:11:46,960
This is Westchester.
267
00:11:47,030 --> 00:11:49,130
We're looking
for Sean.
268
00:11:49,200 --> 00:11:50,330
Well, Sean ain't here.
269
00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:52,170
So why don't you guys
go back where yous
came from?
270
00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:53,760
Shut up, Jason.
271
00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:55,970
I'm Sean Russo.
272
00:11:56,780 --> 00:11:58,900
Why don't we go somewhere
where there's a little
more ambiance?
273
00:11:58,980 --> 00:12:00,450
Gonna take a warrant.
274
00:12:00,510 --> 00:12:02,880
Oh, let's see if
we can arrange that.
275
00:12:02,950 --> 00:12:04,320
This your Explorer?
276
00:12:04,390 --> 00:12:06,010
Yeah, pretty nice, huh?
277
00:12:08,060 --> 00:12:11,960
Oh, what's this, Rey?
An open 40 on
the front seat?
278
00:12:12,030 --> 00:12:13,520
You're under arrest
for having an open
279
00:12:13,590 --> 00:12:15,790
alcoholic beverage
container in your vehicle.
280
00:12:15,860 --> 00:12:17,020
You're sure you
wanna do this?
281
00:12:17,100 --> 00:12:18,430
Damn sure.
282
00:12:20,530 --> 00:12:22,160
Never heard of this
Donnie Gibson.
283
00:12:22,240 --> 00:12:23,830
Sit up.
284
00:12:23,900 --> 00:12:26,630
He was banging
your movie star
girlfriend.
285
00:12:28,040 --> 00:12:29,200
Which one's that?
286
00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:31,140
Kimberly, from
the strip joint.
287
00:12:31,210 --> 00:12:34,150
I whacked this mope
'cause he's getting
some from Kimberly?
288
00:12:34,220 --> 00:12:36,150
I'm gonna let you
in on something.
289
00:12:36,220 --> 00:12:39,550
Half the girls in Spotsfield
rock harder than that Barbie.
290
00:12:39,620 --> 00:12:43,350
We know Kimberly called
you back at the pizza
joint Tuesday night.
291
00:12:43,420 --> 00:12:44,410
Big deal.
292
00:12:44,490 --> 00:12:47,090
You had her
set Gibson up with
a phony speaker deal.
293
00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:49,220
Gibson met you and
you wailed on him.
294
00:12:49,300 --> 00:12:51,760
The four grand
he was carrying
was a bonus.
295
00:12:51,830 --> 00:12:55,230
This is what happened.
I left the mall,
went straight home.
296
00:12:55,300 --> 00:12:56,290
By yourself?
297
00:12:56,370 --> 00:12:58,840
I live with my mother.
Go do some police work,
she'll tell you.
298
00:12:58,910 --> 00:13:00,370
Yeah. We pulled
your sheet, Russo.
299
00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:02,410
You've been picked up
three times for assault.
300
00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:06,040
You and your friends,
you settle your disagreements
with baseball bats.
301
00:13:06,110 --> 00:13:08,050
That's it.
Interrogation's done.
302
00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:09,580
Hey, why don't you
have a seat, Counselor?
303
00:13:09,650 --> 00:13:12,050
Maybe we can get a couple
of straight answers
outta your client.
304
00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:14,710
Do you have any idea
who this is?
305
00:13:14,790 --> 00:13:17,760
A punk kid who spends
his life drinking beer
in a parking lot?
306
00:13:17,830 --> 00:13:19,730
Dominic Russo's son.
307
00:13:21,500 --> 00:13:22,830
Dominic "The Sledge" Russo?
308
00:13:23,430 --> 00:13:25,190
Yeah, that's my pop.
309
00:13:25,700 --> 00:13:27,630
Too bad
he's doing life.
310
00:13:27,700 --> 00:13:29,070
You charging me
with something?
311
00:13:30,340 --> 00:13:33,270
Write Mr. Russo
a citation for the
motor vehicle violation
312
00:13:33,340 --> 00:13:34,830
and send him
on his way.
313
00:13:35,440 --> 00:13:37,240
I want these
sons of bitches sued.
314
00:13:37,310 --> 00:13:38,640
We'll talk about it
on the way home.
315
00:13:38,710 --> 00:13:40,180
And this one,
316
00:13:41,650 --> 00:13:43,280
I want his badge.
317
00:13:47,660 --> 00:13:50,950
Like they say,
genius always
skips a generation.
318
00:13:51,030 --> 00:13:52,460
If that's the future
of the mob,
319
00:13:52,530 --> 00:13:54,490
we got nothing
to worry about.
320
00:13:54,560 --> 00:13:56,590
Tell that to
Donnie Gibson.
321
00:13:59,300 --> 00:14:00,890
Why would I lie?
322
00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:04,060
I see Sean around the club.
That's as far as it goes.
323
00:14:04,140 --> 00:14:06,370
He filled us in
on the two of you.
324
00:14:06,440 --> 00:14:07,430
What'd he say?
325
00:14:07,510 --> 00:14:09,440
Oh, you two think
the world of each other.
326
00:14:09,510 --> 00:14:10,840
Why'd you lie to us?
327
00:14:10,910 --> 00:14:14,040
Because you were seeing
Donnie Gibson and Sean Russo
at the same time?
328
00:14:14,110 --> 00:14:16,170
I wasn't seeing Donnie.
329
00:14:16,250 --> 00:14:19,520
He just likes
a little attention
from a pretty girl.
330
00:14:20,090 --> 00:14:21,080
It's not what you think.
331
00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:22,650
What did Russo think
when he saw you
332
00:14:22,720 --> 00:14:25,850
in that slinky baby doll
you and Gibson picked out?
333
00:14:25,930 --> 00:14:26,950
Baby doll?
334
00:14:27,030 --> 00:14:28,020
Yeah.
335
00:14:28,100 --> 00:14:30,760
Uh, no. That was
a Valentine's present
for Donnie's wife.
336
00:14:30,830 --> 00:14:33,730
Hey, we got
the phone records
from the club.
337
00:14:33,800 --> 00:14:36,900
You forgot to tell us
you called Russo
Tuesday night.
338
00:14:36,970 --> 00:14:37,960
Well, I didn't mean to.
339
00:14:38,040 --> 00:14:40,340
Right. You were
covering for Russo.
340
00:14:40,410 --> 00:14:43,000
You set Gibson up
so that Russo
could stomp him.
341
00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:45,910
You want to see
how he bashed
Donnie's head in?
342
00:14:45,980 --> 00:14:47,570
No, don't show me that.
Look!
343
00:14:47,650 --> 00:14:49,740
Please!
Start being
straight with us.
344
00:14:50,080 --> 00:14:52,210
I think I'm just gonna
keep my mouth shut.
345
00:14:52,290 --> 00:14:54,350
Oh, Russo's got you
scared to talk?
346
00:14:57,090 --> 00:14:59,420
My shift starts
in 15 minutes.
347
00:14:59,490 --> 00:15:01,320
Mr. Stahl gets mad
when I'm late.
348
00:15:01,400 --> 00:15:04,420
Well, he's just gonna
have to learn
how to manage his anger.
349
00:15:04,500 --> 00:15:07,130
First we're gonna
check out your story.
350
00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:12,170
Donnie got me a baby doll
for Valentine's Day.
Why is that important?
351
00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:15,770
Well, we think your
husband might've been
having an affair.
352
00:15:15,840 --> 00:15:17,170
With who?
353
00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:20,040
Her name's Kimberly.
Uh, she's a stripper.
354
00:15:20,950 --> 00:15:24,320
Well, we just thought
the name might be familiar,
maybe she called?
355
00:15:24,390 --> 00:15:26,650
Kimberly? No.
356
00:15:27,320 --> 00:15:29,880
Well, could be we're
jumping to conclusions
about your husband.
357
00:15:29,960 --> 00:15:32,890
Yeah. It sounds like it.
Donnie wasn't like that.
358
00:15:32,960 --> 00:15:36,990
Um, did Donnie
ever mention a guy
named Sean Russo?
359
00:15:37,060 --> 00:15:38,830
No. Who's he?
360
00:15:38,900 --> 00:15:40,490
A mobster.
361
00:15:40,570 --> 00:15:43,090
What did Donnie
get himself into?
362
00:15:43,170 --> 00:15:45,730
Hey, right now
everything's very vague.
363
00:15:45,810 --> 00:15:48,800
We'll call you
if we find out
anything. Thanks.
364
00:15:49,110 --> 00:15:51,670
Oh, I was gonna call you.
365
00:15:53,080 --> 00:15:54,840
This came in the
mail this morning.
366
00:15:54,920 --> 00:15:56,710
It's Donnie's wallet.
367
00:15:58,850 --> 00:16:01,380
Our wedding picture's
still in there.
368
00:16:01,460 --> 00:16:03,690
Do you still
have the envelope
that it came in?
369
00:16:03,760 --> 00:16:05,620
Uh, yeah.
370
00:16:09,630 --> 00:16:11,290
No return address.
371
00:16:12,070 --> 00:16:14,230
This stain here,
was it on the envelope
when you got it?
372
00:16:14,300 --> 00:16:15,360
Yes.
373
00:16:17,300 --> 00:16:19,100
It's blood, isn't it?
374
00:16:21,510 --> 00:16:25,170
The envelope's postmarked
Morningside Station,
southwest Harlem.
375
00:16:25,250 --> 00:16:28,270
That's 20 blocks north
of where Donnie Gibson's
body was found.
376
00:16:28,350 --> 00:16:31,810
So latent didn't get a hit
on the prints off the wallet
or the envelope.
377
00:16:31,890 --> 00:16:34,220
But that stain,
it's pig's blood.
378
00:16:34,620 --> 00:16:36,610
There's that wholesale
meat district
379
00:16:36,690 --> 00:16:39,350
around a 125th Street
on the West Side Highway.
380
00:16:39,430 --> 00:16:41,520
Dominic Russo
has a brother in
the meat business.
381
00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:43,830
Yeah! The legit
side of the family.
382
00:16:43,900 --> 00:16:44,890
So they say.
383
00:16:44,970 --> 00:16:47,020
Our love triangle theory
didn't pan out.
384
00:16:47,100 --> 00:16:49,630
So, what? We think
this is a mob hit?
385
00:16:50,140 --> 00:16:51,700
After The Sledge
went to jail,
386
00:16:51,770 --> 00:16:53,540
couple of guys were
found in the swamps.
387
00:16:53,610 --> 00:16:56,240
There's been
a power vacuum
in his old crew.
388
00:16:56,310 --> 00:16:59,510
Yeah, but how
did Donnie Gibson
get sucked into it?
389
00:17:02,850 --> 00:17:05,550
My man found it out back
Wednesday morning.
390
00:17:05,620 --> 00:17:08,850
I got the address
on the driver's license
and stuck it in the mail.
391
00:17:08,920 --> 00:17:11,020
So why didn't you
try to call, Mr. Russo?
392
00:17:11,690 --> 00:17:13,350
Why didn't I call?
393
00:17:13,760 --> 00:17:15,290
What do you think?
This guy got killed here?
394
00:17:15,760 --> 00:17:17,630
This is where
his wallet was found.
395
00:17:17,700 --> 00:17:19,060
You sayin' I did this?
396
00:17:19,130 --> 00:17:20,360
There's no return address.
397
00:17:20,430 --> 00:17:21,730
Well, why would
I kill the guy
398
00:17:21,800 --> 00:17:23,770
and then mail
his wallet back
to his wife?
399
00:17:23,840 --> 00:17:25,900
Because one
of your workers
picked it up.
400
00:17:27,310 --> 00:17:30,500
You just don't believe
that I would do
anything decent.
401
00:17:30,580 --> 00:17:35,670
Let me explain something.
This last name I got,
I'm me, that's them.
402
00:17:35,750 --> 00:17:37,310
Two distinct situations.
403
00:17:37,380 --> 00:17:40,110
Well, why don't you
just show us where
your guy found the wallet?
404
00:17:43,620 --> 00:17:45,090
I came out here
to take a smoke.
405
00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:47,350
And it was
layin' right there.
406
00:17:49,130 --> 00:17:52,190
Lennie. Looks like blood.
407
00:17:52,270 --> 00:17:54,230
Well, we hose down
our trucks back here.
408
00:17:54,300 --> 00:17:56,530
We'll bring our
technicians up here
just to be sure.
409
00:17:56,600 --> 00:17:57,760
Oh, great.
410
00:17:57,840 --> 00:18:00,170
You tape off this area,
where am I gonna
park my trucks?
411
00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:01,940
It's the price of
being a good citizen.
412
00:18:02,010 --> 00:18:04,240
Is your nephew
Sean ever up here?
413
00:18:04,310 --> 00:18:07,610
Yeah, he worked for me
part of a summer when
he was in high school.
414
00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:09,110
He couldn't
handle the work.
415
00:18:09,180 --> 00:18:10,670
Too much
blood and guts.
416
00:18:10,750 --> 00:18:12,620
He got over it.
417
00:18:12,690 --> 00:18:14,710
Time to check
Sean's alibi.
418
00:18:15,420 --> 00:18:18,520
First you take away
my husband from me
for life.
419
00:18:18,590 --> 00:18:19,920
Now you want my son?
420
00:18:19,990 --> 00:18:23,830
We're just trying
to establish his
whereabouts, Mrs. Russo.
421
00:18:23,900 --> 00:18:26,300
I got the number
of my husband's lawyer
somewhere.
422
00:18:26,370 --> 00:18:27,960
Uh,
once the lawyers
get involved,
423
00:18:28,040 --> 00:18:29,970
then we have to start
with search warrants,
424
00:18:30,040 --> 00:18:32,030
the arrest warrants,
the subpoenas.
425
00:18:32,110 --> 00:18:33,600
I mean, you went
through all that
with your husband.
426
00:18:33,670 --> 00:18:36,870
Yes, I did.
But Sean is not
like his father.
427
00:18:37,280 --> 00:18:40,640
Dominic promised me
he would never let Sean
get involved in that life.
428
00:18:40,710 --> 00:18:42,510
Well, if he's got
nothing to hide,
Mrs. Russo,
429
00:18:42,580 --> 00:18:45,310
then you can't mind
telling us where he was
last Tuesday night.
430
00:18:46,120 --> 00:18:48,050
He was with his friends.
431
00:18:48,120 --> 00:18:51,580
I heard him come in
about 11:30.
432
00:18:51,660 --> 00:18:53,490
What, you still
wait up for him?
433
00:18:53,560 --> 00:18:55,650
I couldn't sleep.
I was watching TV.
434
00:18:55,730 --> 00:18:57,320
Oh, yeah?
What were you watching?
435
00:18:57,400 --> 00:18:59,830
A movie. I can't
remember the name.
436
00:19:02,040 --> 00:19:03,970
Where's your TV?
In my bedroom.
437
00:19:04,470 --> 00:19:06,230
What? You don't believe me?
438
00:19:06,310 --> 00:19:07,300
Your
bedroom's upstairs?
439
00:19:07,370 --> 00:19:08,360
Yeah.
440
00:19:08,680 --> 00:19:09,660
Sean's is where?
441
00:19:09,740 --> 00:19:13,770
Sean's room is down here.
But I heard him come up
to use the bathroom.
442
00:19:13,850 --> 00:19:15,440
Why? Because in
a house this big,
443
00:19:15,520 --> 00:19:16,850
there's no bathroom
down here?
444
00:19:17,480 --> 00:19:18,750
What do you
want from me?
445
00:19:18,820 --> 00:19:20,620
That's what happened.
446
00:19:21,120 --> 00:19:22,750
Forensics says
the blood outside
447
00:19:22,820 --> 00:19:25,290
the uncle's meat business
matches Gibson's.
448
00:19:25,360 --> 00:19:27,350
Can you put Russo
at his uncle's place?
449
00:19:27,430 --> 00:19:29,520
His mother gives him
some half-baked alibi.
450
00:19:29,600 --> 00:19:32,460
Oh, I'm sure she's
had lots of practice
with her husband.
451
00:19:32,530 --> 00:19:34,690
I'd like to get
a look inside
Russo's Explorer.
452
00:19:34,770 --> 00:19:38,300
Well, it sounds like
we have enough for
a search warrant.
453
00:19:38,670 --> 00:19:40,900
Marijuana residue
under the driver's seat.
454
00:19:40,970 --> 00:19:44,380
Yeah, we already rang him
up on a nuisance charge.
Anything else?
455
00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:47,110
Not to the naked eye.
I sent some swabs
down to the lab.
456
00:19:47,180 --> 00:19:49,310
I'm waiting
for a callback.
457
00:19:49,380 --> 00:19:52,220
You got something big
I can stretch out in?
458
00:19:53,390 --> 00:19:55,690
When's my car
gonna be ready?
459
00:19:55,760 --> 00:19:58,820
Getting all worked up
won't make it
go any faster.
460
00:19:58,890 --> 00:20:01,330
If there's anything wrong
with my car, these jerks
are liable, right?
461
00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:02,890
That's right, Sean.
462
00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:04,060
Good.
463
00:20:09,670 --> 00:20:11,540
I want my car, now.
464
00:20:15,710 --> 00:20:19,240
Boy, this thing is loaded.
Two alarm systems,
cell phone, CD player.
465
00:20:19,310 --> 00:20:21,080
Yeah, he's got
three kinds of radar.
466
00:20:21,150 --> 00:20:24,210
Yeah, maybe you could
accidentally disable
a few of them.
467
00:20:27,620 --> 00:20:28,780
Jackson.
468
00:20:28,860 --> 00:20:30,350
How's the patient?
469
00:20:30,420 --> 00:20:31,980
I'd check his
blood pressure.
470
00:20:32,060 --> 00:20:34,620
Driver's side.
I'll let 'em know.
471
00:20:35,930 --> 00:20:38,230
Lab didn't find any
blood off my swabs.
472
00:20:38,300 --> 00:20:40,230
But the driver's side
floor mat showed traces
473
00:20:40,300 --> 00:20:42,390
of ammonia and
liquefied Freon.
474
00:20:42,470 --> 00:20:43,460
Is that unusual?
475
00:20:43,540 --> 00:20:45,060
Yeah, this time of year.
476
00:20:45,140 --> 00:20:49,340
Most likely source,
the driver stepped in a puddle
from a refrigeration unit.
477
00:20:50,440 --> 00:20:53,780
Russo was killing
Gibson near his
uncle's meat trucks.
478
00:20:53,850 --> 00:20:55,040
Thanks.
479
00:20:58,250 --> 00:20:59,720
Finally.
Where's my car?
480
00:20:59,790 --> 00:21:02,280
We'll be supplying
your transportation
from now on.
481
00:21:02,360 --> 00:21:04,380
You're under arrest
for the murder
of Donald Gibson.
482
00:21:04,460 --> 00:21:05,580
You have the right
to remain silent.
483
00:21:05,660 --> 00:21:08,360
First you get me out,
then you get my car.
484
00:21:08,430 --> 00:21:09,760
You have the
right to an attorney.
485
00:21:09,830 --> 00:21:11,590
If you cannot afford one,
one will be appointed.
486
00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:18,770
"Docket number 89254,
People v. Sean Russo.
Murder in the First Degree. "
487
00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:21,360
Mr. Russo is being
railroaded, Your Honor.
488
00:21:21,440 --> 00:21:25,100
I'll take that as
a not guilty plea.
Let's talk bail.
489
00:21:25,180 --> 00:21:27,240
The People have
a solid case, Judge.
490
00:21:27,310 --> 00:21:29,610
The defendant
lured the victim
to an isolated area.
491
00:21:29,680 --> 00:21:31,240
Forensics connects him
to the murder scene.
492
00:21:31,320 --> 00:21:32,620
The People request remand.
493
00:21:32,690 --> 00:21:33,950
The People's
forensic evidence
494
00:21:34,020 --> 00:21:35,490
could have come from
a thousand places.
495
00:21:35,560 --> 00:21:38,290
Mr. Russo intends
to fight this to
the bitter end, Judge.
496
00:21:38,360 --> 00:21:39,920
He's not going anywhere.
497
00:21:39,990 --> 00:21:42,390
He's got strong ties
to the community
as you can see.
498
00:21:42,460 --> 00:21:45,430
Given Mr. Russo's
three assault arrests
499
00:21:45,500 --> 00:21:47,190
and his reputation
for violence,
500
00:21:47,270 --> 00:21:49,240
he poses
a distinct threat
to our community.
501
00:21:49,300 --> 00:21:50,900
When you don't have a case,
you argue reputation...
502
00:21:50,970 --> 00:21:54,460
Would you ask Mr. Sklar
to get his finger
out of my face!
503
00:21:54,540 --> 00:21:56,440
Both of you, enough.
504
00:21:56,510 --> 00:21:58,270
$1,000,000,
cash or bond.
505
00:22:01,110 --> 00:22:02,600
Russo
commanded an audience.
506
00:22:02,680 --> 00:22:04,950
Half the wise guys
in the five boroughs.
507
00:22:05,020 --> 00:22:07,420
They were treating him
like he was the heir
apparent to his father.
508
00:22:07,490 --> 00:22:09,510
The heir apparent
to Dominic Russo
509
00:22:09,590 --> 00:22:12,580
robbed and killed
a man for $4,000?
510
00:22:12,660 --> 00:22:14,420
Then what's he doing
with Bernie Sklar?
511
00:22:14,490 --> 00:22:17,400
Sklar's made a career
out of representing
high-level mobsters.
512
00:22:17,460 --> 00:22:19,960
Maybe we need to
re-examine our theory
about motive.
513
00:22:20,930 --> 00:22:22,990
First spend time
increasing his bail.
514
00:22:24,070 --> 00:22:25,160
One million's not enough?
515
00:22:25,240 --> 00:22:27,430
I want him
off the street.
516
00:22:27,510 --> 00:22:29,980
If this punk
is trying to step
in his father's shoes,
517
00:22:30,040 --> 00:22:32,380
now's the time
to close him down.
518
00:22:35,580 --> 00:22:36,810
$10,000,000?
519
00:22:37,250 --> 00:22:39,780
The District Attorney's
on a vendetta here.
520
00:22:39,850 --> 00:22:42,120
Bail's been argued
and decided.
521
00:22:42,190 --> 00:22:46,130
You do need to demonstrate
some change in
circumstance, Mr. McCoy.
522
00:22:46,190 --> 00:22:48,220
It's apparent
from his arraignment
that Mr. Russo
523
00:22:48,300 --> 00:22:51,090
has ascended to
a dominant position in
his father's crime family.
524
00:22:51,160 --> 00:22:53,460
There's no crime family
run by Dominic Russo.
525
00:22:53,530 --> 00:22:56,730
He was convicted
on multiple counts
of racketeering,
526
00:22:56,800 --> 00:23:00,330
extortion and
ordering the murder
of his Mafia rivals.
527
00:23:00,410 --> 00:23:04,170
That term is an ethnic slur
concocted by law enforcement
528
00:23:04,240 --> 00:23:06,080
and adopted wholesale
by the media.
529
00:23:06,150 --> 00:23:08,480
And the KKK is
a civic organization?
530
00:23:08,550 --> 00:23:11,920
Show me where the mafia's
existence has been proven
in any court of law.
531
00:23:11,990 --> 00:23:14,680
Save it for your
summation, Mr. Sklar.
532
00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:16,780
Your presence here
belies your argument.
533
00:23:17,290 --> 00:23:20,820
Bail is raised
to $10,000,000,
cash or bond.
534
00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:23,260
We'll be ready to post
by the weekend.
535
00:23:26,400 --> 00:23:30,500
If Mr. Russo plans to post
collateral by third parties,
I want a surety hearing.
536
00:23:31,170 --> 00:23:34,610
Why? To intimidate
anybody who's gonna
stand up for my client?
537
00:23:34,670 --> 00:23:37,700
No. To insure
they're not intimidated
by Mr. Russo,
538
00:23:37,780 --> 00:23:42,010
or pledging property
obtained from the proceeds
of criminal activity.
539
00:23:42,080 --> 00:23:44,640
You've been there
before, Mr. Sklar.
540
00:23:44,720 --> 00:23:45,980
Hearing's set for Monday.
541
00:23:48,020 --> 00:23:49,150
We'll need discovery first.
542
00:23:49,220 --> 00:23:52,210
Ah, don't worry, Jack.
I'm not gonna stiff you.
543
00:24:00,300 --> 00:24:03,100
Russo's ambassadors
of goodwill.
544
00:24:03,170 --> 00:24:04,640
Just in case
the bail guarantors
545
00:24:04,700 --> 00:24:07,040
forget why
they've put up
their life's savings.
546
00:24:07,110 --> 00:24:09,010
The discovery
I promised you, Jack.
547
00:24:09,080 --> 00:24:10,600
Five minutes from
the hearing, Bernie?
548
00:24:10,680 --> 00:24:13,940
Oh, they don't get it to me,
I can't get it to you.
549
00:24:15,220 --> 00:24:17,580
Nobody had to
tell us what to do.
550
00:24:17,650 --> 00:24:21,250
My wife's brother-in-law's
a first cousin of
Sean's father, Dominic.
551
00:24:21,660 --> 00:24:24,620
So you've offered
to post a $500,000
piece of real estate
552
00:24:24,690 --> 00:24:25,890
for a distant relative?
553
00:24:27,730 --> 00:24:29,420
Dominic's been
very good to us
over the years.
554
00:24:29,500 --> 00:24:32,760
We decided it was time
to repay his favors.
555
00:24:32,830 --> 00:24:36,200
Did one of those favors
include giving you
a bag full of cash
556
00:24:36,270 --> 00:24:37,700
for a down payment
on your house?
557
00:24:37,770 --> 00:24:41,640
No. I got that money
from my parents
35 years ago.
558
00:24:44,740 --> 00:24:46,870
No further questions.
559
00:24:47,350 --> 00:24:48,340
Who's next?
560
00:24:49,480 --> 00:24:50,970
Jeffrey Stahl.
561
00:24:53,220 --> 00:24:54,950
Mr. Stahl.
562
00:25:06,270 --> 00:25:07,960
How did you acquire
the property
563
00:25:08,030 --> 00:25:10,470
you're pledging for bail,
Mr. Stahl?
564
00:25:10,540 --> 00:25:13,870
My partner and I
put down $500,000
in 1995
565
00:25:13,940 --> 00:25:16,310
to purchase the
building where our
nightclub's located.
566
00:25:16,710 --> 00:25:18,040
Where did you
get the money?
567
00:25:18,110 --> 00:25:20,770
We solicited certain
qualified investors.
568
00:25:20,850 --> 00:25:23,780
But we drew the bulk
of the money from
our own savings.
569
00:25:23,850 --> 00:25:27,180
Were any of these
investors associated with
the Russo crime family?
570
00:25:27,250 --> 00:25:29,480
Object to the
characterization,
Your Honor.
571
00:25:29,560 --> 00:25:31,990
Overruled.
The witness will answer.
572
00:25:33,290 --> 00:25:37,530
Our investors are high
net-worth individuals
who work on Wall Street.
573
00:25:38,230 --> 00:25:39,660
How about your initial
working capital,
574
00:25:39,730 --> 00:25:41,060
where did that come from?
575
00:25:41,130 --> 00:25:42,830
Family and friends.
576
00:25:42,900 --> 00:25:45,000
Then I'm
a little confused, sir.
577
00:25:45,070 --> 00:25:47,840
Why are you pledging
your company's main asset
578
00:25:47,910 --> 00:25:50,070
for an accused murderer
like Sean Russo?
579
00:25:51,110 --> 00:25:54,380
Mr. Russo is a customer
in my club who I've come
to know and respect.
580
00:25:54,450 --> 00:25:57,140
I feel he is deserving
of my assistance.
581
00:25:58,920 --> 00:26:03,050
Did he or any of his friends
pressure you to pledge
this collateral?
582
00:26:04,660 --> 00:26:06,130
Absolutely not.
583
00:26:09,500 --> 00:26:10,520
Just a moment,
Your Honor?
584
00:26:11,330 --> 00:26:13,890
Donald Gibson filed
a mechanic's lien
against Guys and Dolls
585
00:26:13,970 --> 00:26:16,490
for $12,000
three months before
he was killed.
586
00:26:16,570 --> 00:26:17,800
What for?
587
00:26:17,870 --> 00:26:20,310
Work performed
and not paid for.
Nothing more specific.
588
00:26:23,780 --> 00:26:29,010
Mr. Stahl, you owed $12,000
to the victim in this case,
didn't you?
589
00:26:29,080 --> 00:26:31,350
Objection. What's this
got to do with anything?
590
00:26:31,420 --> 00:26:33,720
Goes to the relationship
between the witness
and the deceased.
591
00:26:33,790 --> 00:26:37,090
How does this
debt relate to
Mr. Russo's bail?
592
00:26:37,160 --> 00:26:38,520
I'd like to explore that.
593
00:26:38,590 --> 00:26:40,360
It's a fishing
expedition.
594
00:26:40,430 --> 00:26:42,290
Looks like that to me.
595
00:26:42,360 --> 00:26:44,130
Objection sustained.
596
00:26:44,800 --> 00:26:46,770
Anything more,
Mr. McCoy?
597
00:26:47,830 --> 00:26:50,270
Then I'll rule on
the surety issue.
598
00:26:54,410 --> 00:26:57,310
Mr. Russo
is very gratified
at his release.
599
00:26:57,380 --> 00:26:59,900
By going forward with
these unfounded charges,
600
00:26:59,980 --> 00:27:03,110
it's obvious the D.A.
is still trying to
punish his father.
601
00:27:03,180 --> 00:27:05,410
Beyond that, we have
no further comment.
602
00:27:05,490 --> 00:27:06,470
Thank you.
603
00:27:10,560 --> 00:27:12,680
It was a long shot
anyway, Jack.
604
00:27:12,760 --> 00:27:15,560
At least we turned up
that 12,000-dollar debt.
605
00:27:15,630 --> 00:27:19,590
Stahl owes Gibson money.
Russo murders Gibson.
606
00:27:19,670 --> 00:27:22,760
Let's get the story
behind this mechanics' lien.
607
00:27:26,610 --> 00:27:30,630
Here. Guys and Dolls
was billed 15,000 at
the beginning of the year.
608
00:27:30,710 --> 00:27:33,770
We got checks
the next three months,
1,000 each.
609
00:27:34,480 --> 00:27:36,310
Nothing's come
in since then.
610
00:27:36,380 --> 00:27:38,350
They still owe
Mr. Gibson $12,000.
611
00:27:38,420 --> 00:27:39,410
Wait a minute.
612
00:27:39,490 --> 00:27:43,480
The payments stopped
a couple of months before
Mr. Gibson was killed.
613
00:27:43,560 --> 00:27:44,850
Did your boss usually
take out a lien
614
00:27:44,920 --> 00:27:46,080
when someone
owed him money?
615
00:27:46,160 --> 00:27:47,590
Only if they gave
him a hard time.
616
00:27:47,660 --> 00:27:49,690
You know,
as a last resort.
617
00:27:50,700 --> 00:27:52,690
So why'd you owe
Gibson the money?
618
00:27:52,770 --> 00:27:55,100
Well, what does that
got to do with anything?
619
00:27:55,170 --> 00:27:57,640
You were having
a billing dispute with
the victim of a murder.
620
00:27:57,700 --> 00:27:59,070
Look, it wasn't a dispute.
621
00:27:59,140 --> 00:28:01,540
The mayor's crackdown
forced us to
re-configure space
622
00:28:01,610 --> 00:28:03,910
so we brought Donnie in
to redo the sound system.
623
00:28:03,980 --> 00:28:05,240
But you never paid
him for the work.
624
00:28:05,310 --> 00:28:07,710
Oh, I'm getting to that.
We made several payments.
625
00:28:07,780 --> 00:28:09,250
We had a cash flow problem.
626
00:28:09,320 --> 00:28:11,370
This new law
hurt our business.
627
00:28:11,450 --> 00:28:13,180
So Gibson dropped
a mechanic's lien
on you.
628
00:28:13,250 --> 00:28:15,620
He filed it to
protect his interests.
629
00:28:15,690 --> 00:28:17,020
Standard operating
procedure.
630
00:28:17,090 --> 00:28:18,720
That's not what
his secretary says.
631
00:28:18,790 --> 00:28:21,280
I don't know what to
tell you, Miss Carmichael.
She's wrong.
632
00:28:21,360 --> 00:28:24,630
You still haven't paid.
And I'm sure his widow
could use the money.
633
00:28:25,470 --> 00:28:29,270
We plan on
paying her in full
with interest.
634
00:28:29,340 --> 00:28:30,860
Now does that answer
your questions?
635
00:28:30,940 --> 00:28:33,370
Let me see
if I understand this.
636
00:28:33,440 --> 00:28:34,910
You're in
financial trouble,
637
00:28:34,970 --> 00:28:37,340
defaulting on
your obligations,
638
00:28:37,410 --> 00:28:39,880
but instead of tapping
into the equity
on your building,
639
00:28:39,950 --> 00:28:42,680
you pledge it
to get Sean Russo
out of prison.
640
00:28:42,750 --> 00:28:44,220
I explained
that in court.
641
00:28:44,280 --> 00:28:46,780
Your explanation makes
even less sense now
than it did then.
642
00:28:46,850 --> 00:28:49,980
Well, maybe it'll make
more sense
coming from my attorney.
643
00:28:50,060 --> 00:28:51,650
We're done here.
644
00:28:54,090 --> 00:28:56,190
My partner told me
you were snooping around.
645
00:28:56,260 --> 00:28:58,390
He doesn't even want me
speaking to you.
646
00:28:58,470 --> 00:29:01,160
By not cooperating,
you only increase
our suspicion.
647
00:29:01,230 --> 00:29:05,600
For God's sake, we are just
a couple of businessmen
trying to make a living.
648
00:29:05,670 --> 00:29:07,110
You own a strip club.
649
00:29:07,170 --> 00:29:10,610
Do I look like
some degenerate,
Miss Carmichael.
650
00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:13,410
I would have rather
bought the Blue Note,
it wasn't for sale.
651
00:29:13,480 --> 00:29:15,450
Jeff talked me into this.
652
00:29:15,520 --> 00:29:17,780
Did he talk you
into co-signing
Russo's bail pledge?
653
00:29:19,620 --> 00:29:21,140
I can't go into that.
654
00:29:22,760 --> 00:29:24,850
If there's anything
illegal going on,
you're responsible.
655
00:29:24,920 --> 00:29:26,190
There's nothing going on.
656
00:29:26,260 --> 00:29:27,780
Then why go to
bat for Russo?
657
00:29:27,860 --> 00:29:29,020
Jeff explained it to you.
658
00:29:29,100 --> 00:29:30,560
Unless you do a better
job than he did,
659
00:29:30,630 --> 00:29:32,960
we're putting your business
under a magnifying glass.
660
00:29:33,030 --> 00:29:35,430
You're not from
New York, are you?
661
00:29:36,340 --> 00:29:39,030
You're being extorted.
Is that why you
put up the building?
662
00:29:39,840 --> 00:29:43,470
Do you know what
you're dealing with here,
Miss Carmichael?
663
00:29:45,380 --> 00:29:46,780
How'd it go?
664
00:29:47,410 --> 00:29:48,900
Well, Wilder won't
say it directly,
665
00:29:48,980 --> 00:29:52,320
but he and Stahl
are paying Russo
to stay in business.
666
00:29:52,390 --> 00:29:55,320
Even so, putting up
the building for bail's
667
00:29:55,390 --> 00:29:57,150
above and beyond
the call of duty.
668
00:29:57,220 --> 00:29:59,660
Yeah. And there's
something else
bothering me.
669
00:29:59,730 --> 00:30:01,560
If Gibson knew
the club was
mobbed up,
670
00:30:01,630 --> 00:30:04,890
why would he continue
to go there after hitting
them with a mechanic's lien?
671
00:30:04,960 --> 00:30:07,400
You're looking for
the answer in Gibson's
business records.
672
00:30:07,800 --> 00:30:10,130
Well, maybe he
had ties to Russo.
673
00:30:11,170 --> 00:30:12,260
Here.
674
00:30:14,470 --> 00:30:17,600
Gibson did some work
for one of Dominic
Russo's underbosses,
675
00:30:17,680 --> 00:30:19,410
Vincent Carpignano.
676
00:30:19,480 --> 00:30:23,680
Gibson put in a sound
system in Carpignano's
house in Staten Island.
677
00:30:23,750 --> 00:30:25,220
Carpignano...
678
00:30:26,150 --> 00:30:29,140
I don't remember him
being in court to pay
homage to Sean Russo.
679
00:30:29,220 --> 00:30:32,390
He knew Gibson,
he knows Russo.
It's worth a shot.
680
00:30:32,990 --> 00:30:36,990
I hired Donnie because
of some work he did
in this club I managed.
681
00:30:37,530 --> 00:30:38,930
For Dominic Russo?
682
00:30:39,000 --> 00:30:42,020
Hey, that's all
behind me now.
683
00:30:43,170 --> 00:30:46,970
We're not interested in
Dominic, Mr. Carpignano,
just his son.
684
00:30:47,040 --> 00:30:50,570
Pee Wee I call him.
That's not a term
of endearment.
685
00:30:50,640 --> 00:30:52,700
We noticed
you weren't in
court for him.
686
00:30:52,780 --> 00:30:55,910
If Pee Wee
whacked Donnie,
687
00:30:55,980 --> 00:30:57,850
good luck
putting him away.
688
00:30:57,920 --> 00:31:00,180
Did he have anything
to do with you leaving
the business?
689
00:31:00,250 --> 00:31:02,240
You might say that.
690
00:31:02,320 --> 00:31:06,690
I remember Dominic
telling me one day
Pee Wee became a made man.
691
00:31:07,460 --> 00:31:09,990
I was sorry to hear that,
I told him.
692
00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:14,230
He should've put the kid
in a real business,
like I did with my boys.
693
00:31:14,700 --> 00:31:17,500
Did Dominic know
Sean was shaking down
Guys and Dolls?
694
00:31:20,370 --> 00:31:21,400
It was known.
695
00:31:22,040 --> 00:31:23,410
By Donnie Gibson?
696
00:31:25,350 --> 00:31:30,280
Well, I knew Donnie
was doing work there.
I might've said something.
697
00:31:31,380 --> 00:31:32,580
Wasn't he worried?
698
00:31:32,650 --> 00:31:34,750
Donnie was
a very cocky guy.
699
00:31:35,260 --> 00:31:37,380
Said he had friends
who could protect him.
700
00:31:37,460 --> 00:31:39,020
What kind
of friends?
701
00:31:39,090 --> 00:31:40,790
Government friends.
702
00:31:40,860 --> 00:31:44,020
From years back
when they grabbed
him buying swag.
703
00:31:47,230 --> 00:31:48,960
Thank you for
speaking with us.
704
00:31:49,840 --> 00:31:51,460
Don't mention it.
705
00:31:57,140 --> 00:31:59,370
You think Donnie
could mention his
government friends
706
00:31:59,450 --> 00:32:01,110
to collect a debt?
707
00:32:01,580 --> 00:32:04,850
What are you saying, Jack,
that Stahl and Wilder
panicked and ran to Russo?
708
00:32:04,920 --> 00:32:07,350
If I'm wrong,
they can tell me why.
709
00:32:07,850 --> 00:32:10,320
A jury will see
right through this,
Miss Carmichael.
710
00:32:10,390 --> 00:32:13,690
Legitimate businessmen
don't have a contractor killed
over a few thousand dollars.
711
00:32:13,760 --> 00:32:16,960
But your clients aren't
legitimate businessmen.
712
00:32:17,030 --> 00:32:20,190
It's just a matter of time
before we turn up evidence
of payoffs to Russo.
713
00:32:20,270 --> 00:32:22,830
Assuming you do,
it's a minor league
rackets prosecution.
714
00:32:22,900 --> 00:32:25,530
Not if Donnie Gibson
threatened to take it
to the feds.
715
00:32:25,610 --> 00:32:26,730
It's a motive for murder.
716
00:32:27,240 --> 00:32:28,760
You can't prove that.
717
00:32:31,780 --> 00:32:34,340
Complete cooperation
against Russo,
we'd offer man one.
718
00:32:34,410 --> 00:32:35,470
On what theory?
719
00:32:35,550 --> 00:32:39,040
Maybe your client's only
intent was to have Russo
break a couple of kneecaps.
720
00:32:40,450 --> 00:32:44,290
I don't care if you're
offering jaywalking.
I'm not interested.
721
00:32:46,460 --> 00:32:47,450
We charge
you with murder,
722
00:32:47,530 --> 00:32:50,460
you're looking at
life without parole,
if not the death penalty.
723
00:32:50,530 --> 00:32:51,930
Highly unlikely.
724
00:32:52,000 --> 00:32:55,630
But not impossible.
Twenty-five to life
is my fall-back position.
725
00:32:57,340 --> 00:32:58,360
I can't go to jail.
726
00:32:58,970 --> 00:33:01,200
Then convince us
you shouldn't.
727
00:33:05,450 --> 00:33:08,110
They approached us
while we were still
under construction.
728
00:33:08,180 --> 00:33:09,510
Who did?
729
00:33:09,580 --> 00:33:11,610
Sean Russo
and his friends.
730
00:33:12,220 --> 00:33:14,710
He said he knew
a few tradesmen
who needed work.
731
00:33:14,790 --> 00:33:15,780
Could we accommodate them?
732
00:33:16,560 --> 00:33:18,180
It didn't seem
like a big deal.
733
00:33:18,260 --> 00:33:20,050
We needed the
work done anyway.
734
00:33:20,130 --> 00:33:21,220
Were any threats made?
735
00:33:21,290 --> 00:33:22,560
Not then.
736
00:33:23,230 --> 00:33:27,530
After we opened,
Russo recommended a liquor
wholesaler we should use,
737
00:33:28,200 --> 00:33:30,470
then a laundry service
for the linens.
738
00:33:30,540 --> 00:33:31,590
Recommended?
739
00:33:31,670 --> 00:33:34,000
It wasn't presented
as an option.
740
00:33:35,140 --> 00:33:37,770
The next thing we knew,
we were paying Russo
741
00:33:37,840 --> 00:33:40,540
a cut of the
coatroom revenues,
the vending machines.
742
00:33:41,010 --> 00:33:42,480
How much were
you paying out?
743
00:33:42,550 --> 00:33:44,310
Over 100,000 a year.
744
00:33:45,120 --> 00:33:48,280
They were bleeding us.
That's why we couldn't
pay Gibson on time.
745
00:33:48,350 --> 00:33:51,080
Why didn't you just
sell the club, get
out from under Russo?
746
00:33:51,160 --> 00:33:53,960
Jeff and I put
everything we had
into this.
747
00:33:54,690 --> 00:33:57,060
Our dream was to
own a night club.
748
00:33:57,130 --> 00:34:00,830
We had customers
from the movie business,
all the sports teams.
749
00:34:00,900 --> 00:34:03,030
It was a blast.
And we were in
the middle of it.
750
00:34:03,100 --> 00:34:06,630
And the prerequisite
was going into business
with mobsters.
751
00:34:07,870 --> 00:34:09,600
I thought I was
giving them an inch.
752
00:34:09,680 --> 00:34:12,410
I didn't realize
I was giving them
a yard.
753
00:34:13,150 --> 00:34:15,610
Then one night
I came home,
754
00:34:16,620 --> 00:34:19,210
there was a bullet
on my coffee table.
755
00:34:20,220 --> 00:34:21,690
I was living
every day in fear.
756
00:34:21,750 --> 00:34:25,320
Either we'd get caught,
or Russo would do
something violent.
757
00:34:25,860 --> 00:34:27,490
And that's where
Gibson came in.
758
00:34:28,160 --> 00:34:29,690
He threatened us
with exposure,
759
00:34:29,760 --> 00:34:31,590
said he knew
someone at the FBI.
760
00:34:32,130 --> 00:34:33,290
And you told Russo?
761
00:34:35,440 --> 00:34:38,200
Not directly.
I talked it over
with Jeff.
762
00:34:38,270 --> 00:34:39,760
He went to see Russo.
763
00:34:39,840 --> 00:34:41,240
Did you try
and stop him?
764
00:34:41,310 --> 00:34:44,240
Jeff wasn't asking for
Gibson to be murdered.
765
00:34:44,610 --> 00:34:47,980
I never thought
that this would get
so out of control.
766
00:34:48,450 --> 00:34:50,540
Can you help me
out of this?
767
00:34:52,150 --> 00:34:53,810
Please, Mr. McCoy?
768
00:35:00,130 --> 00:35:02,460
Wilder says they
only wanted to
scare Gibson off.
769
00:35:02,530 --> 00:35:04,220
The whole thing
got out of hand.
770
00:35:04,300 --> 00:35:05,730
You believe him?
771
00:35:05,800 --> 00:35:07,390
Wilder made some
bad decisions.
772
00:35:07,470 --> 00:35:09,870
I don't see him
premeditating a murder.
773
00:35:09,940 --> 00:35:12,700
Well, we can offer him
manslaughter in exchange
for his testimony.
774
00:35:12,770 --> 00:35:13,760
That's a problem.
775
00:35:13,840 --> 00:35:17,570
Wilder wasn't privy
to his partner's
conversation with Russo.
776
00:35:17,980 --> 00:35:19,440
We don't have
the last link.
777
00:35:19,510 --> 00:35:21,340
And Stahl won't cooperate.
778
00:35:21,410 --> 00:35:23,010
Progress on
the Russo case?
779
00:35:23,080 --> 00:35:24,450
Two more arrests.
780
00:35:24,520 --> 00:35:27,420
The partners in the
strip club who set
the murder in motion.
781
00:35:29,220 --> 00:35:31,710
There's another player
on the field.
782
00:35:31,920 --> 00:35:35,160
The feds are ready
to indict Mr. Russo
for racketeering.
783
00:35:35,600 --> 00:35:37,120
Who's handling it
for the US Attorney?
784
00:35:37,630 --> 00:35:38,620
Bob Gervits.
785
00:35:40,570 --> 00:35:42,900
From the
car-dragging murder.
786
00:35:42,970 --> 00:35:44,130
This should be pleasant.
787
00:35:44,200 --> 00:35:45,800
Make sure it is.
788
00:35:47,640 --> 00:35:49,230
No hard feelings, Jack.
789
00:35:49,310 --> 00:35:51,170
But now it's
payback time?
790
00:35:51,240 --> 00:35:54,080
You think that's
why I'm going after
Sean Russo?
791
00:35:54,150 --> 00:35:57,010
Three days after
we arrest him,
you convene a grand jury.
792
00:35:57,080 --> 00:35:58,640
Our investigation
was in the works
793
00:35:58,720 --> 00:36:01,280
long before Russo
murdered Gibson.
794
00:36:01,350 --> 00:36:04,480
But you want
first crack at him,
I can wait.
795
00:36:04,560 --> 00:36:05,750
That's refreshing.
796
00:36:05,830 --> 00:36:08,060
Makes my life easier
if you convict him.
797
00:36:08,130 --> 00:36:11,690
Loosen him up for a plea on
my racketeering indictment.
798
00:36:11,760 --> 00:36:13,730
Just keep me
in the loop.
799
00:36:15,900 --> 00:36:17,930
Not to look
a gift horse
in the mouth,
800
00:36:18,000 --> 00:36:20,560
but anything less
than a murder conviction
against Russo
801
00:36:20,640 --> 00:36:23,010
and Gervits looks like
he's cleaning up our mess.
802
00:36:23,080 --> 00:36:25,310
You're getting
the hang of this,
Abbie.
803
00:36:25,380 --> 00:36:27,510
But it's not
going to happen.
804
00:36:28,510 --> 00:36:30,350
Stahl might
change his mind
about cooperating
805
00:36:30,420 --> 00:36:33,320
once he knows his partner
gave up the store.
806
00:36:34,220 --> 00:36:36,450
It's simple,
Mr. Stahl.
807
00:36:36,520 --> 00:36:40,620
You testify against Russo
and we cut you a break
on jail time.
808
00:36:41,230 --> 00:36:43,390
That's nice.
If Russo's boys
don't get me in prison,
809
00:36:43,460 --> 00:36:45,400
they'll be waiting for me
when I get out.
810
00:36:45,460 --> 00:36:48,130
You'll serve your sentence
in a secure facility
811
00:36:48,200 --> 00:36:51,360
and you'll get
federal witness protection
after you're released.
812
00:36:55,340 --> 00:36:58,070
I already told
Miss Carmichael,
I can't do it.
813
00:36:58,140 --> 00:36:59,610
I'm going to
testify, Jeff.
814
00:37:00,110 --> 00:37:01,940
Against Russo?
I have to.
815
00:37:02,010 --> 00:37:03,070
Don't be so stupid!
816
00:37:03,150 --> 00:37:04,450
With or without you.
817
00:37:05,250 --> 00:37:06,580
So I get screwed, too?
818
00:37:06,650 --> 00:37:08,380
I'm sorry, Jeff.
819
00:37:08,450 --> 00:37:11,150
You've got to
hang in there.
We can beat them.
820
00:37:11,220 --> 00:37:12,920
I've got a family
to worry about.
821
00:37:12,990 --> 00:37:14,720
I've listened
to you all along.
Look where we are.
822
00:37:15,260 --> 00:37:18,320
Damn it, Tom, I'm not
moving to Arizona
and working in a Kmart.
823
00:37:18,400 --> 00:37:19,960
Don't you get it?
It's over.
824
00:37:20,030 --> 00:37:22,230
This isn't going to
have a happy ending.
825
00:37:25,500 --> 00:37:27,100
I can't believe
this is happening.
826
00:37:27,170 --> 00:37:29,000
It's already happened.
827
00:37:29,480 --> 00:37:32,910
You made your choices.
Now you only have one left.
828
00:37:40,290 --> 00:37:42,250
What do you
need to know?
829
00:37:48,790 --> 00:37:50,760
At this time,
the defendants would
like to withdraw
830
00:37:50,830 --> 00:37:53,160
their not guilty pleas
and enter pleas of guilty
831
00:37:53,230 --> 00:37:55,600
to manslaughter
in the First Degree.
832
00:37:55,670 --> 00:37:59,900
Mr. Wilder, are
you prepared to allocute
to the reduced charge?
833
00:38:02,010 --> 00:38:04,270
Well, I...
834
00:38:06,510 --> 00:38:09,950
Judge, I ask that Mr. Russo
and his attorney be removed
from the courtroom.
835
00:38:10,020 --> 00:38:11,750
This is a public
proceeding, Your Honor.
836
00:38:11,820 --> 00:38:13,720
The constitution
gives us every right
to be here.
837
00:38:13,790 --> 00:38:15,950
Not if you're here
to intimidate
these defendants.
838
00:38:16,020 --> 00:38:18,010
If they tell
the truth, they have
nothing to be afraid of.
839
00:38:18,090 --> 00:38:21,460
Given that Mr. Russo
is about to be implicated
in their allocutions,
840
00:38:21,530 --> 00:38:23,590
his presence here
is highly inappropriate.
841
00:38:23,660 --> 00:38:26,460
Are you going to let
Mr. McCoy run your
courtroom, Your Honor?
842
00:38:26,530 --> 00:38:30,130
Please. Mr. Sklar,
you can stay
843
00:38:30,200 --> 00:38:32,260
and report
the proceedings
to your client.
844
00:38:32,340 --> 00:38:35,100
Mr. Russo will have
to leave. Officers.
845
00:38:37,840 --> 00:38:41,900
Hey, McCoy, what kind
of deal you giving these
guys to lie for you?
846
00:38:46,790 --> 00:38:50,550
Donnie came in one day
to ask why the payments
stopped.
847
00:38:50,620 --> 00:38:52,180
He said I had
till the end
of the month
848
00:38:52,260 --> 00:38:54,090
to come up with
the whole thing
849
00:38:54,160 --> 00:38:56,960
or he'd go talk
to his FBI friend
850
00:38:57,030 --> 00:38:59,520
about what was
going on at the club.
851
00:39:00,530 --> 00:39:02,330
Just to make sure
he wasn't bluffing,
852
00:39:02,400 --> 00:39:05,770
we confirmed that
Donnie got off easy
in federal court.
853
00:39:07,940 --> 00:39:10,740
That's when I told
Sean about the problem.
854
00:39:12,040 --> 00:39:14,410
I just wanted him
to talk some sense
into Donnie.
855
00:39:14,480 --> 00:39:16,450
You know,
frighten him off.
856
00:39:17,450 --> 00:39:21,390
I knew he might
rough Donnie up,
something like that.
857
00:39:21,620 --> 00:39:22,880
But, uh...
858
00:39:24,990 --> 00:39:28,080
I never believed
this would end
in a murder.
859
00:39:29,500 --> 00:39:33,330
Mr. McCoy,
are you ready with
a sentence recommendation?
860
00:39:33,400 --> 00:39:35,530
We'd like to hold off
until after the defendants
861
00:39:35,600 --> 00:39:37,800
have testified
against Mr. Russo.
862
00:39:38,340 --> 00:39:39,600
Fine.
863
00:39:39,670 --> 00:39:41,160
Pleas of guilty
to manslaughter
864
00:39:41,240 --> 00:39:43,570
in the First Degree
are accepted.
865
00:39:44,580 --> 00:39:45,980
Sentencing deferred.
866
00:39:46,050 --> 00:39:50,710
Mr. Sklar, we'll
start your client's
trial on the 15th.
867
00:39:52,650 --> 00:39:54,450
Wilder and Stahl
have been cooped up
for a week.
868
00:39:54,520 --> 00:39:55,820
They're on
pins and needles.
869
00:39:55,890 --> 00:39:57,380
They'll be fine once
they take the stand.
870
00:39:57,460 --> 00:39:59,320
Did you prep the
forensic witnesses?
871
00:39:59,390 --> 00:40:03,830
Last night. The stripper's
coming in this afternoon.
872
00:40:03,900 --> 00:40:05,260
Carmichael.
873
00:40:07,830 --> 00:40:09,890
Bob Gervits.
He wants to talk
about Russo.
874
00:40:09,970 --> 00:40:13,170
Now? Tell him we'll
be by after lunch.
875
00:40:14,540 --> 00:40:18,440
Leonard Sklar
just called me with
the last minute jitters.
876
00:40:18,510 --> 00:40:20,600
He's desperate to
cut a deal for Russo
877
00:40:20,680 --> 00:40:22,580
on my racketeering
indictment.
878
00:40:22,650 --> 00:40:23,980
How desperate?
879
00:40:24,050 --> 00:40:26,020
Russo's prepared
to name enough names
880
00:40:26,090 --> 00:40:30,040
to put what's left of
his father's organization
on life support.
881
00:40:30,120 --> 00:40:33,520
That'll make Adam happy.
How many years
are you recommending?
882
00:40:33,590 --> 00:40:36,080
Assuming complete
cooperation, 10.
883
00:40:36,630 --> 00:40:38,790
Plus whatever he
gets on the state
murder conviction.
884
00:40:38,860 --> 00:40:41,420
That's what I wanted
to talk to you about.
885
00:40:41,500 --> 00:40:44,870
To get Russo to sign off,
I need you to get on board.
886
00:40:46,270 --> 00:40:47,530
On board what?
887
00:40:47,610 --> 00:40:50,970
Let him plead down
to man one on your
murder charge, six to 12.
888
00:40:51,040 --> 00:40:54,480
We'll stipulate the terms
be served concurrently.
889
00:40:54,550 --> 00:40:55,740
Ten years for everything?
890
00:40:56,250 --> 00:40:58,340
He's giving up
a dozen other guys.
891
00:40:58,420 --> 00:41:01,820
We've got him dead
to rights on Murder One.
Let me convict him first.
892
00:41:01,890 --> 00:41:03,980
Russo says
it's now or never.
893
00:41:04,060 --> 00:41:06,790
Let's see what he says
when he's staring at
life without parole.
894
00:41:06,860 --> 00:41:08,380
He'll deal on 25 to life.
895
00:41:08,460 --> 00:41:10,900
I'm not risking
my case on that.
896
00:41:10,960 --> 00:41:12,450
I've lined up
Stahl and Wilder
897
00:41:12,530 --> 00:41:14,760
and they're ready
to put their necks
on the line.
898
00:41:14,830 --> 00:41:16,670
Out of the goodness
of their hearts.
899
00:41:18,540 --> 00:41:20,970
You don't have the stomach
to call Russo's bluff.
900
00:41:21,440 --> 00:41:24,070
I can't make this
happen without you.
901
00:41:25,640 --> 00:41:28,440
I'm giving
my opening statement
tomorrow morning.
902
00:41:31,980 --> 00:41:33,210
What's up, Adam?
903
00:41:35,020 --> 00:41:37,610
I just got off with the
United States Attorney.
904
00:41:37,690 --> 00:41:39,320
She called you
an obstructionist.
905
00:41:40,990 --> 00:41:43,990
Under the circumstances,
I consider that a compliment.
906
00:41:44,060 --> 00:41:46,290
She wasn't
passing compliments.
907
00:41:46,700 --> 00:41:49,460
She wants you to clear out
so they can flip Russo.
908
00:41:51,170 --> 00:41:53,570
Does she want us to
offer him an apology?
909
00:41:54,010 --> 00:41:55,740
You're just one piece
in the puzzle.
910
00:41:55,810 --> 00:41:58,800
Their puzzle.
Russo will be getting
a free ride for a murder.
911
00:41:58,880 --> 00:42:00,000
I understand that.
912
00:42:00,080 --> 00:42:03,110
He's also putting
an organized crime family
out of business.
913
00:42:04,950 --> 00:42:06,880
I already told Gervits no.
914
00:42:07,250 --> 00:42:08,380
Tell him you
changed your mind.
915
00:42:09,260 --> 00:42:10,420
I haven't.
916
00:42:10,490 --> 00:42:11,720
Then I'll tell him.
917
00:42:13,430 --> 00:42:16,120
Don't pretend it's
coming from me, Adam.
918
00:42:16,730 --> 00:42:19,290
If you want to undermine me,
do it out in the open.
919
00:42:19,770 --> 00:42:21,320
Consider it done.
920
00:42:39,690 --> 00:42:40,780
Jack?
921
00:42:42,320 --> 00:42:45,760
Call our witnesses,
tell them we won't
be needing them.
922
00:42:46,460 --> 00:42:48,520
Forces beyond
our control.
923
00:42:48,590 --> 00:42:49,720
You should hear this.
924
00:42:49,800 --> 00:42:53,130
Gervits just filed
a racketeering indictment
against Wilder and Stahl.
925
00:42:55,270 --> 00:42:57,260
That son of a bitch.
926
00:42:57,340 --> 00:42:59,600
Withdraw the indictments
against Stahl and Wilder.
927
00:42:59,670 --> 00:43:00,900
I can't do that.
928
00:43:00,970 --> 00:43:01,960
If it wasn't for them,
929
00:43:02,040 --> 00:43:04,270
Russo wouldn't be
talking to you
about cooperating.
930
00:43:04,340 --> 00:43:05,780
As soon as they
became targets,
931
00:43:05,840 --> 00:43:07,140
you should've
given me a head's up.
932
00:43:07,210 --> 00:43:10,910
Why? You were handling
the state murder charge.
My claims are federal.
933
00:43:10,980 --> 00:43:14,650
Don't hide behind
jurisdictional niceties.
You ambushed them.
934
00:43:14,720 --> 00:43:16,310
They should've considered
the consequences
935
00:43:16,390 --> 00:43:19,190
before they went into
business with Russo.
936
00:43:24,830 --> 00:43:26,920
You sat there
while I made a deal
with them.
937
00:43:27,000 --> 00:43:29,260
They held up their end
and plead guilty.
938
00:43:29,340 --> 00:43:31,500
And they
deserve to go to jail.
939
00:43:31,570 --> 00:43:34,000
You promised them
witness protection.
You reneging on that, too?
940
00:43:34,070 --> 00:43:36,170
I don't consider them
witnesses anymore.
941
00:43:36,240 --> 00:43:37,900
So that no longer applies.
942
00:43:37,980 --> 00:43:39,540
You lied to their faces!
943
00:43:39,610 --> 00:43:41,140
That's not the way
I see it!
944
00:43:42,050 --> 00:43:43,570
You made me
a party to it!
945
00:43:43,650 --> 00:43:45,140
I'm sure you'll
get over it.
946
00:43:45,220 --> 00:43:48,120
I have my priorities,
you have yours.
947
00:43:48,190 --> 00:43:49,450
The front page
of the newspaper?
948
00:43:49,520 --> 00:43:51,390
You give me way
too much credit.
949
00:43:51,890 --> 00:43:55,590
You planned this
back when you gave us
first crack at Russo.
950
00:43:56,300 --> 00:43:57,280
You played me.
951
00:43:58,130 --> 00:44:01,860
If that's the way
you want to look at it,
guess we're even.
952
00:44:01,930 --> 00:44:04,330
And it's out of
your jurisdiction.
953
00:44:09,170 --> 00:44:11,340
What about the promises
you made, Mr. McCoy?
954
00:44:11,410 --> 00:44:13,840
You still have your
deal for manslaughter.
955
00:44:13,910 --> 00:44:15,710
What about
witness protection
for my family?
956
00:44:16,820 --> 00:44:20,180
As things stand,
there won't be any
witness protection.
957
00:44:21,920 --> 00:44:23,010
What?
958
00:44:24,260 --> 00:44:26,950
We're going to
federal prison as rats?
959
00:44:27,030 --> 00:44:29,430
Wrong, Tom.
We couldn't even
make it as rats.
960
00:44:29,500 --> 00:44:31,930
Russo's gonna
have us killed in there.
You know that, don't you?
961
00:44:32,000 --> 00:44:33,590
And it's going
to be on your head.
962
00:44:33,670 --> 00:44:36,070
How is this possible,
Mr. McCoy?
963
00:44:36,140 --> 00:44:37,600
We gave you
everything you wanted.
964
00:44:37,670 --> 00:44:40,730
Now the feds are going
to use our guilty pleas
as evidence against us.
965
00:44:40,810 --> 00:44:42,170
Tom, you should've
kept your mouth shut.
966
00:44:42,240 --> 00:44:44,300
Now we have nothing
left to offer anybody.
967
00:44:44,380 --> 00:44:46,110
Jack, there must be
something you can do?
968
00:44:47,610 --> 00:44:49,410
I can make a few calls.
969
00:44:49,480 --> 00:44:50,910
That's not
good enough.
970
00:44:50,980 --> 00:44:53,380
I wish I could do more.
I'm sorry.
971
00:44:54,950 --> 00:44:56,720
Is that all you can say?
972
00:44:57,390 --> 00:44:59,520
All we wanted
was to have a business.
973
00:44:59,590 --> 00:45:02,580
Mr. McCoy,
how could you let
this happen to us?
974
00:45:03,330 --> 00:45:05,300
Please, I'm begging you.
975
00:45:12,300 --> 00:45:14,600
It's not your fault.
976
00:45:15,170 --> 00:45:16,330
Right.
977
00:45:17,380 --> 00:45:20,640
Stahl and Wilder
swam with the sharks.
They got bit.
978
00:45:21,550 --> 00:45:23,540
They're not
the only ones.
