There is evidence to suggest

that this shooting was a targeted act.

interrupted a robbery in progress.

Friendly reminder that there are still 15 squad cars,

three Humvees, and 30 police officers parked outside

of Rafael Wexford's house.

And it's 100 degrees outside --

what my daddy called "murder weather."

Where are we?

Hey.

I tracked down Chester's side piece, and she's here.

Great. Let's go talk to her.

We got this.

Keep me posted.

We found a burner phone in Chester's locker.

He was texting with someone, and they set up a meeting

for today in about an hour.

Where'd everybody go? Where's the meeting?

Uh, Mixtape Mexico.

It's good. All the dishes are named after

Atlanta music artists.

Cool. Um...great find.

Thanks.

But honestly, they just called me with the information.

Eduardo, read this.

Eduardo: The André 3000 --

Spicy birria, oaxacan cheese on a corn tortilla.

The Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes... You said that you were gonna take care of it,

so I assumed it was off my plate.

Excuse me. ...al Pastor, avocado, grilled pineapple...

Do not say "no worries," okay?

It was your fault. You should worry.

Excuse me. Are you -- Can you hold on a second?

Can you just turn that down a bit?

Actually, I'm dyslexic,

and I need this to read the menu.

I have to call you back. I'm being shamed.

The Killer Mike...

Thank you.

Hi. Yes, can I have a Killer Mike, please?

You ready or what?

Yes, I am.

Um, I will have the André 3000,

but, um, just no cheese.

There's no substitutions.

Well, technically, it's not a substitution.

It's a subtraction.

Oh my God. [ Chuckles ] You know what?

I'll, um -- I'll just remove it myself.

Are you here meeting someone?

Yeah. Why do --

Oh, no. Are you my 1:00?

Wait. You don't know who you're meeting?

I was expecting a cop, and you don't look like a cop.

Sorry. Who are you?

I'm Special Agent Will Trent, GBI.

Who are you? I'm Marion Alba.

I'm with the Fulton County District Attorney's office.

What's going on right now?

Chester Flynn was the cop who contacted you.

The one that was murdered?

That's right. Why'd he reach out to you?

I have to go.

You're scared. Why?

I, um -- I don't know who you are.

I don't know what that guy was involved in.

And I'm not going to talk to you.

Look, I-I just need to -- No.

A cop was murdered and somebody's being framed for it!

Doesn't anybody care about facts and truth anymore?!

Ms. Alba, I don't want to be in this position

any more than you do, all right?

I was enjoying life in Tennessee.

You know, I was trying to sort things out because I --

I arrested the love of my life last year,

and I broke up a ring of corrupt cops three years before that.

I'm a pathologically scrupulous person.

I'm aware of that.

If I could be any other way, I would.

I don't -- I don't even know if I could be a cop anymore.

Point is, you do not need to be afraid of me.

Okay. One Killer Mike and one André 3000.

Thank you. Thank you.

You arrested the love of your life? [ Chuckles ]

It's a long story. All right, really long.

C-Could we please just sit?

Yeah.

Chester contacted me. He was cagey.

Didn't want to give me his name.

Said he was using a burner and that he had something

to get off of his chest.

Asked a lot of questions about immunity.

Why you?

I'm working on a RICO case against the Grove Park Boys.

What'd you make of his call?

A cop wanting to get something off of his chest,

asking about immunity --

What does that sound like to you?

A whistle-blower. Mm.

I thought you guys were looking at Rafael Wexford for this.

He's no angel, but I know him pretty well,

and I don't think he did this.

How do you know Rafael Wexford?

100 years ago.

I was raised in foster care.

When I got out, I had nothing. He was my friend.

He let me stay at his house with his grandma.

Then we had a falling out.

That's a story.

For another day.

Chester Flynn was shot outside of a cop barbecue.

It's like...Shakespeare.

You think the police killed one of their own?

I think you should be careful who you speak to.

Reporter: All right, this is breaking news.

Rafael Wexford has surrendered... What?

...and confessed to the shootings

of two Atlanta police officers. [ Cellphone chimes ]

What the hell? And as you can see, he is in custody.

Can you come with me? ...for Wexford at this point.

Why'd you confess?

Where's my gramma?

I found a safe place for her. Why'd you confess?

I finally found God. I'm not gay anymore.

After what, 20 years of silence

you call in the favor, and now this?

I guess it wouldn't be the first time

I have to take the fall, now would it?

I really thought you could get this figured out.

I know you're being framed.

Oh, really? We're not gonna take a bad confession.

Yeah, I don't know.

Everybody else here is eager to put a needle in my arm.

Rafael, what you're doing makes no sense.

Make it make sense.

Rafael Wexford confessed to the murder of Chester Flynn

and the attempted murder of Robert Taron.

Thanks to the heroic efforts of the GBI

partnering with the APD,

the streets of Atlanta are safe.

[ Applause ]

You know he didn't do it, right?

He confessed. Everyone thinks this is over.

Do you really think Chester Flynn

was gonna blow the whistle on dirty cops?

It's all conjecture at this point.

I'm a prosecutor. We deal in truth and facts.

Chester had a story to tell, but he was killed.

That's all I know. Well, guess what we heard.

The woman Chester gave money to was not the mother

of his illegitimate children.

Turns out, her husband was killed in a carjacking.

Chester was the responding officer.

She said he was really upset. She actually said he cried.

And the $30,000 in college funds for her kids --

that wasn't the end of it.

He gave another five grand in cash

and then donated another 10 grand through crowdfunding.

What kind of cop has $45,000 lying around?

Oh, the corrupt kind.

Somebody forced Rafael to confess.

Something he's afraid to say.

We need to go to his house, answer's got to be there.

Let's go. I'll drive.

Can you keep this case open? Buy us some time?

I might lose my job.

Truth and facts, right?

I can try. Yeah.

Thank you. Mm-hmm.

He confessed, but he is innocent.

That means someone had leverage.
