1
00:00:01,240 --> 00:00:02,969
In the criminal justice system
2
00:00:03,042 --> 00:00:06,943
the people are represented by two
separate yet equally important groups,
3
00:00:07,012 --> 00:00:08,809
the police
who investigate crime
4
00:00:08,880 --> 00:00:11,679
and the district attorneys
who prosecute the offenders.
5
00:00:11,751 --> 00:00:13,412
These are their stories.
6
00:00:21,893 --> 00:00:24,327
Let's go! Let's go!
7
00:00:24,396 --> 00:00:26,829
Okay, get all
the wheels, Poppi!
8
00:00:26,898 --> 00:00:28,195
What about under the hood, man?
9
00:00:28,266 --> 00:00:30,496
I'm on it, man!
Just get all the wheels!
10
00:00:36,674 --> 00:00:40,235
Damn!
There's a guy in here.
11
00:00:46,884 --> 00:00:49,182
Back away from the vehicle!
Move it!
12
00:00:50,688 --> 00:00:52,053
Keep your hands on your head!
13
00:00:54,490 --> 00:00:55,980
Hey, Danny!
There's someone in here!
14
00:00:56,059 --> 00:00:57,754
Hey, man, that guy was...
Shut up!
15
00:01:03,866 --> 00:01:05,265
Hey, Mike, what you got?
16
00:01:05,335 --> 00:01:08,031
White male, 50s,
no wallet, no ID.
17
00:01:08,671 --> 00:01:12,368
One shot in the sternum. Found a spent.38
slug in the back seat
18
00:01:12,709 --> 00:01:15,176
and wearing an empty
holster on his belt.
19
00:01:15,244 --> 00:01:16,472
Let me guess.
No gun?
20
00:01:16,545 --> 00:01:17,603
Searching the area now.
21
00:01:17,813 --> 00:01:18,838
You run prints?
22
00:01:18,915 --> 00:01:20,212
Should hear any minute.
23
00:01:20,283 --> 00:01:22,581
What about these two mutts
who were boosting the car?
24
00:01:22,652 --> 00:01:23,879
They're clean on this one,
25
00:01:23,952 --> 00:01:25,146
but their van is full of swag.
26
00:01:25,220 --> 00:01:26,778
Is this still a hooker stroll?
27
00:01:26,855 --> 00:01:28,049
Twenty-four hours a day.
28
00:01:28,123 --> 00:01:30,182
Could have something to do
with his johnson being out.
29
00:01:30,259 --> 00:01:32,523
Oh, thanks.
I might not have put that together.
30
00:01:32,594 --> 00:01:34,026
What about the car?
31
00:01:34,095 --> 00:01:36,496
Well, the car's registered to
a Bernum Woods Corporation
32
00:01:36,565 --> 00:01:37,759
on Queens Boulevard.
33
00:01:37,833 --> 00:01:39,357
Bernum Woods.
34
00:01:39,434 --> 00:01:42,766
They make a nice golf club.
Titanium.
35
00:01:42,837 --> 00:01:44,236
I don't play.
36
00:01:44,305 --> 00:01:46,500
Yeah. Well, if you did,
you couldn't afford those.
37
00:01:46,574 --> 00:01:47,563
How long's he been here?
38
00:01:47,642 --> 00:01:48,768
Ten, twelve hours.
39
00:01:51,078 --> 00:01:53,342
We got a hit on his prints.
40
00:01:53,547 --> 00:01:54,980
Gilbert Keene.
41
00:01:55,049 --> 00:01:57,415
Hey, Lennie,
this guy's a retired cop.
42
00:02:49,568 --> 00:02:52,161
I met Gilly playing golf.
43
00:02:52,236 --> 00:02:53,601
He was still on the force then.
44
00:02:53,671 --> 00:02:54,968
After he retired,
I asked him to come
45
00:02:55,039 --> 00:02:57,234
to work for me
as chief of security.
46
00:02:57,408 --> 00:03:01,208
Your friend Gilly was found in an
area frequented by prostitutes.
47
00:03:01,279 --> 00:03:02,974
Did he go in for
that sort of thing?
48
00:03:03,047 --> 00:03:04,981
I don't know.
He never said anything about it.
49
00:03:05,049 --> 00:03:07,347
Do you know of any family
we can contact?
50
00:03:07,418 --> 00:03:08,510
No.
51
00:03:09,354 --> 00:03:11,583
I'm the closest thing he's got.
52
00:03:13,056 --> 00:03:15,024
The slug came from a Colt.
53
00:03:15,092 --> 00:03:17,356
Keene had a Colt
registered in his name.
54
00:03:17,427 --> 00:03:18,952
What about the prints?
No hits.
55
00:03:19,030 --> 00:03:20,553
Maybe our hooker's new in town.
56
00:03:20,630 --> 00:03:22,222
You think it's
a hooker rip-off?
57
00:03:22,299 --> 00:03:24,699
Reads like it.
But I can't see an ex-cop
58
00:03:24,768 --> 00:03:26,599
letting himself get popped
with his own gun.
59
00:03:26,670 --> 00:03:28,604
Hey, a guy getting
his knob polished,
60
00:03:28,672 --> 00:03:30,070
I could believe anything.
61
00:03:30,139 --> 00:03:32,630
Check with the regulars for
any new faces on the block.
62
00:03:33,576 --> 00:03:35,340
We think a working girl
took this guy out.
63
00:03:35,412 --> 00:03:36,538
Maybe during
a rip-off.
64
00:03:36,847 --> 00:03:38,337
I don't know nothing
about no girls
65
00:03:38,415 --> 00:03:40,939
ripping off no johns.
It's bad for the trade.
66
00:03:41,016 --> 00:03:42,244
Well, maybe it was a new girl,
67
00:03:42,318 --> 00:03:43,376
didn't know the rules?
68
00:03:43,452 --> 00:03:44,817
Look, anybody who helps us out
69
00:03:44,887 --> 00:03:47,185
gets a free walk next
time they're collared.
70
00:03:47,256 --> 00:03:48,883
Well, I seen a new girl
down the block.
71
00:03:48,958 --> 00:03:49,946
Little farm girl.
72
00:03:50,091 --> 00:03:51,615
Dirty blonde,
sugar-faced thing.
73
00:03:51,694 --> 00:03:53,184
This sugar-faced thing
have a name?
74
00:03:53,262 --> 00:03:54,286
Goes by Iris.
75
00:03:54,363 --> 00:03:56,297
I seen her today at the
deli on 10th Avenue.
76
00:03:56,565 --> 00:03:57,623
Right. Thanks.
77
00:03:57,700 --> 00:04:01,260
And my name's Mona.
You won't forget?
78
00:04:07,675 --> 00:04:09,142
Hey, you want a date?
79
00:04:09,210 --> 00:04:10,404
That's what I'm here for.
80
00:04:10,678 --> 00:04:13,272
Well, what kind of party
are you into?
81
00:04:13,815 --> 00:04:14,907
You think maybe
you could arrange
82
00:04:14,983 --> 00:04:16,211
a little
double-team action?
83
00:04:16,284 --> 00:04:18,548
Oh, I think I can arrange
anything you like.
84
00:04:18,620 --> 00:04:21,144
Hey, is that Iris still
working around here?
85
00:04:21,221 --> 00:04:23,348
Well, it's your lucky day.
She's right over here.
86
00:04:24,525 --> 00:04:27,757
Hey, Iris, the guy wants you and me.
87
00:04:28,196 --> 00:04:29,389
How you doing, Iris?
88
00:04:29,463 --> 00:04:31,328
Hey! We party before?
89
00:04:32,399 --> 00:04:33,832
Damn. They're cops.
90
00:04:33,901 --> 00:04:35,528
Take a hike.
Let's go.
91
00:04:35,969 --> 00:04:37,766
Please don't arrest me.
No.
92
00:04:37,838 --> 00:04:38,929
We don't want to arrest you,
93
00:04:39,005 --> 00:04:40,336
we just want to talk to you.
Come on.
94
00:04:41,541 --> 00:04:43,874
How did you get the
wallet and the pager, Iris?
95
00:04:45,412 --> 00:04:47,004
I found them.
Where?
96
00:04:49,348 --> 00:04:50,679
I don't remember.
97
00:04:50,750 --> 00:04:52,684
You know who
this stuff belongs to?
98
00:04:52,752 --> 00:04:53,776
No.
99
00:04:53,853 --> 00:04:57,584
A john who was murdered.
In his car.
100
00:04:57,657 --> 00:04:59,180
Where you from, Iris?
101
00:04:59,257 --> 00:05:01,556
Minnesota?
West Virginia?
102
00:05:01,627 --> 00:05:02,855
Ohio.
103
00:05:03,362 --> 00:05:06,331
It's probably a lot worse
here than you thought, huh?
104
00:05:06,432 --> 00:05:09,025
Guys roughing you up,
not paying you.
105
00:05:09,100 --> 00:05:11,159
This guy rough you up, Iris?
106
00:05:11,236 --> 00:05:12,965
Look, if you tell us
what happened,
107
00:05:13,038 --> 00:05:15,563
we can make things
a lot easier for you.
108
00:05:16,107 --> 00:05:18,667
If you don't tell us, we're
gonna have to go to the D.A.
109
00:05:19,344 --> 00:05:20,936
We're gonna have to
tell him what we know,
110
00:05:21,012 --> 00:05:23,344
Which is that you
had the victim's property.
111
00:05:23,448 --> 00:05:25,916
And if we find
your prints in that car,
112
00:05:25,984 --> 00:05:27,541
I can tell you right now,
113
00:05:27,618 --> 00:05:29,142
you'll be charged with murder.
114
00:05:29,220 --> 00:05:30,448
And you'll be convicted.
115
00:05:32,089 --> 00:05:35,150
He was already dead.
I didn't kill him. I swear to God.
116
00:05:35,227 --> 00:05:37,786
I looked in his jacket and I
found his wallet and pager.
117
00:05:42,333 --> 00:05:44,426
Iris tests negative
for powder residue,
118
00:05:44,502 --> 00:05:47,129
and she wasn't wearing the
same lipstick as our perp was.
119
00:05:47,203 --> 00:05:48,534
We took a sample
off the victim.
120
00:05:48,605 --> 00:05:49,867
The brand's called Porfini.
121
00:05:49,939 --> 00:05:51,430
The shade's Caribbean Sunset.
122
00:05:51,509 --> 00:05:53,136
Twenty-six bucks
a tube.
123
00:05:53,210 --> 00:05:54,837
Five stores in
the city carry it.
124
00:05:54,912 --> 00:05:55,901
Thanks, Teresa.
125
00:05:55,980 --> 00:05:57,003
The techs down the hall
126
00:05:57,080 --> 00:05:59,048
checked the alpha memory
on Keene's pager.
127
00:05:59,115 --> 00:06:01,879
One interesting call.
"Jane, 911."
128
00:06:01,951 --> 00:06:02,975
You follow up on it?
129
00:06:03,052 --> 00:06:05,748
Yeah. Profaci went over Keene's LUDs.
No call to any Jane.
130
00:06:05,822 --> 00:06:08,620
Maybe his good buddy
Bernum knows who Jane is.
131
00:06:12,262 --> 00:06:14,287
Yeah, we got one
Jane who works in R&D.
132
00:06:14,364 --> 00:06:15,797
Jane Tennick.
She's a clerk.
133
00:06:15,864 --> 00:06:18,332
What kind of relationship
did she and Keene have?
134
00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:19,389
None that I know of.
135
00:06:19,468 --> 00:06:21,333
She's only been here
about six months.
136
00:06:22,738 --> 00:06:24,933
I page people all the time,
137
00:06:25,007 --> 00:06:28,067
but that one, no,
nothing comes to mind.
138
00:06:28,944 --> 00:06:31,242
Well, we're gonna
check on every call
139
00:06:31,313 --> 00:06:33,178
Gilbert Keene made last week.
140
00:06:33,248 --> 00:06:36,512
Now, if one of those calls was
to you, right after that page,
141
00:06:36,584 --> 00:06:38,575
it's not gonna look too good.
142
00:06:38,653 --> 00:06:40,052
Does that jog your memory?
143
00:06:40,121 --> 00:06:42,146
This is a murder
investigation, Miss Tennick.
144
00:06:42,223 --> 00:06:45,158
Believe me, you do not want to
be jerking us around on this.
145
00:06:47,161 --> 00:06:49,061
I did page Keene.
146
00:06:50,531 --> 00:06:52,431
But it had nothing
to do with his death.
147
00:06:52,500 --> 00:06:54,297
I don't know
anything about that.
148
00:06:55,569 --> 00:06:57,799
Look, Gilly Keene was a jerk.
149
00:06:57,871 --> 00:06:59,202
He was blackmailing me.
150
00:06:59,306 --> 00:07:00,706
Really? How?
151
00:07:02,243 --> 00:07:04,972
I had taken a set of golf
clubs from the building,
152
00:07:05,045 --> 00:07:06,478
an older set, for my father,
153
00:07:06,546 --> 00:07:08,138
when he came to visit me.
154
00:07:08,715 --> 00:07:10,444
Keene found out about it.
155
00:07:10,517 --> 00:07:11,677
What did he say?
156
00:07:11,751 --> 00:07:14,185
He said that if he told Bernum,
157
00:07:14,254 --> 00:07:16,153
Bernum would
fire me on the spot.
158
00:07:16,890 --> 00:07:18,983
He also threatened
to press charges,
159
00:07:19,059 --> 00:07:21,254
turn me over to
his cop buddies.
160
00:07:21,328 --> 00:07:23,489
The ones who do
his background checks.
161
00:07:23,563 --> 00:07:27,430
"Or," he says,
"I can forget everything."
162
00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:30,191
Keep this a secret
and not tell Bernum.
163
00:07:31,637 --> 00:07:34,071
If I slept with him once.
164
00:07:35,541 --> 00:07:36,872
And I did.
165
00:07:39,078 --> 00:07:40,375
Then he wanted me again.
166
00:07:40,446 --> 00:07:42,141
And if he wanted
to keep doing it,
167
00:07:42,214 --> 00:07:43,680
I would have to go along.
168
00:07:43,748 --> 00:07:45,147
So what was the page about?
169
00:07:45,216 --> 00:07:47,377
I was gonna tell him
it was over.
170
00:07:47,485 --> 00:07:49,817
I didn't care if he told
Bernum or went to the police.
171
00:07:49,887 --> 00:07:51,082
I would deal with it.
172
00:07:51,156 --> 00:07:53,021
And what'd he say about that?
Nothing.
173
00:07:53,092 --> 00:07:55,685
I spoke to him around
10:00 in the morning
174
00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:57,591
and he didn't have time
to talk about it.
175
00:07:57,929 --> 00:07:59,692
Where were you Wednesday, noon?
176
00:07:59,764 --> 00:08:02,927
I was here, in the canteen,
177
00:08:03,001 --> 00:08:04,831
having lunch with
10 other people.
178
00:08:06,236 --> 00:08:07,898
Tennick's alibi checked out.
179
00:08:07,972 --> 00:08:09,303
We ready to rule out Iris?
180
00:08:09,374 --> 00:08:11,638
Maybe she washed
all the powder residue off.
181
00:08:11,709 --> 00:08:13,335
She'll be in the system
another couple of days,
182
00:08:13,410 --> 00:08:14,809
but I don't think
she has it in her.
183
00:08:14,878 --> 00:08:17,472
You said Tennick mentioned
some old cop buddies?
184
00:08:17,547 --> 00:08:20,038
Yeah. She said he was using
them to check things out.
185
00:08:20,117 --> 00:08:21,846
So go check them out.
We are.
186
00:08:21,918 --> 00:08:24,477
There's a wake for Keene
over at Craven's.
187
00:08:25,789 --> 00:08:28,519
This is between us.
Off the record.
188
00:08:29,860 --> 00:08:31,987
He'd ask me to check
some license plates,
189
00:08:32,062 --> 00:08:34,495
throw him a few numbers.
Do a BCI check.
190
00:08:34,563 --> 00:08:36,531
Hey, Captain, no business.
191
00:08:36,599 --> 00:08:40,160
Briscoe, this is strictly for Keene.
To Gilly Keene!
192
00:08:40,302 --> 00:08:42,497
To Gilly Keene!
To Gilly Keene!
193
00:08:43,939 --> 00:08:44,928
You talk to him recently?
194
00:08:45,007 --> 00:08:46,872
About a week ago, yeah.
195
00:08:46,942 --> 00:08:48,432
He called and asked me to check
196
00:08:48,511 --> 00:08:50,536
on this bogus
credit card charge.
197
00:08:50,613 --> 00:08:51,671
What was that about?
198
00:08:51,747 --> 00:08:53,441
Well, he said it was important.
199
00:08:53,515 --> 00:08:55,915
Somebody was making
unauthorized purchases.
200
00:08:55,984 --> 00:08:57,679
You find out who it was?
201
00:08:57,752 --> 00:08:59,414
I found out
the name of the vendor.
202
00:08:59,655 --> 00:09:04,785
It was like a jewel. Topaz Enterprises.
That's all I remember.
203
00:09:06,027 --> 00:09:07,824
Did Keene go in for hookers?
204
00:09:11,365 --> 00:09:12,992
There's a broad in the 47
205
00:09:13,067 --> 00:09:14,466
who used to give him a freebie.
206
00:09:16,004 --> 00:09:16,993
And that's it?
207
00:09:17,072 --> 00:09:18,539
He didn't like to
play by the rules.
208
00:09:18,606 --> 00:09:20,198
That's why he lost his job.
209
00:09:25,112 --> 00:09:28,013
I don't know about any
bogus credit card charges.
210
00:09:28,082 --> 00:09:30,073
Maybe Gilly found
something on his own.
211
00:09:30,150 --> 00:09:33,142
And Topaz Enterprises
doesn't ring a bell, huh?
212
00:09:33,253 --> 00:09:34,277
I've never heard of it.
213
00:09:34,354 --> 00:09:35,912
Nothing in
Keene's file on Topaz.
214
00:09:37,891 --> 00:09:39,552
How many employees
are authorized
215
00:09:39,626 --> 00:09:41,889
to use a corporate credit card?
216
00:09:42,762 --> 00:09:44,286
About 10.
217
00:09:44,363 --> 00:09:45,921
But how do you know this
fraud he was investigating
218
00:09:45,998 --> 00:09:47,192
wasn't on his personal card?
219
00:09:47,266 --> 00:09:49,131
Well, we'll get into that,
but in the meantime,
220
00:09:49,202 --> 00:09:50,261
if you could get us a list
221
00:09:50,337 --> 00:09:52,133
of the card users,
the authorized ones,
222
00:09:52,205 --> 00:09:56,005
and the corporate credit card
statements for the last few months.
223
00:09:56,075 --> 00:09:58,339
You think you could
do that, Mr. Bernum?
224
00:09:59,112 --> 00:10:00,135
Yeah. Sure.
225
00:10:00,979 --> 00:10:03,709
I thought you never heard
of Topaz Enterprises.
226
00:10:03,815 --> 00:10:04,804
I haven't.
227
00:10:04,883 --> 00:10:07,717
Well, you got six
$500 charges last month,
228
00:10:07,787 --> 00:10:10,346
four the month before, and
four the month before that.
229
00:10:10,422 --> 00:10:12,822
Unless it's some supplier
that changed their name.
230
00:10:12,891 --> 00:10:14,882
Who used corporate
card number two?
231
00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:17,121
That was Gilly Keene.
I gave it to him
232
00:10:17,195 --> 00:10:18,685
to use during
his investigations.
233
00:10:21,766 --> 00:10:24,497
Hey, only one of us needs to
push a button, all right?
234
00:10:24,569 --> 00:10:25,558
Okay, fine.
You do it.
235
00:10:25,637 --> 00:10:26,899
You don't have to wait
to hear all the options.
236
00:10:26,972 --> 00:10:28,269
I caught the case, okay?
237
00:10:28,340 --> 00:10:30,330
So I'll push the button
when I want to.
238
00:10:30,775 --> 00:10:33,175
Ha! A live person.
Hello.
239
00:10:33,244 --> 00:10:36,805
You have two New York police
detectives on the line.
240
00:10:36,881 --> 00:10:40,816
Yeah. I got the name of a
vendor, Topaz Enterprises.
241
00:10:42,653 --> 00:10:45,588
I need a phone number
and an address and a name.
242
00:10:46,791 --> 00:10:49,850
No, we don't have time to send
you a letter on our stationary.
243
00:10:49,926 --> 00:10:52,156
Would a subpoena
to your boss help?
244
00:10:54,264 --> 00:11:00,169
P.O. Box 176, 1700 Bloomingdale
Road, White Plains.
245
00:11:00,236 --> 00:11:01,567
Thank you.
246
00:11:02,071 --> 00:11:04,403
176. They must come in
to collect the mail.
247
00:11:04,474 --> 00:11:07,170
These places are
designed for privacy.
248
00:11:07,243 --> 00:11:09,540
Box holders enter from the
outside with their own key.
249
00:11:09,611 --> 00:11:11,238
We never see them come or go.
250
00:11:11,313 --> 00:11:13,372
I have nothing to do with
them except collect the rent.
251
00:11:13,448 --> 00:11:15,679
Well, who pays
the rent for 176?
252
00:11:19,555 --> 00:11:22,922
176, pays once a year with a money order.
Mailed in.
253
00:11:22,991 --> 00:11:25,016
For all I know,
Elvis is renting that box.
254
00:11:25,093 --> 00:11:28,755
Would you happen to have any
copies of Elvis' money orders?
255
00:11:28,996 --> 00:11:31,726
The mailbox was
registered to Mary Jones.
256
00:11:31,799 --> 00:11:33,131
Another clever alias.
257
00:11:33,202 --> 00:11:35,466
You don't need an ID
to get a money order.
258
00:11:35,537 --> 00:11:39,404
Yeah. All right.
Thanks, Charlie. Take care.
259
00:11:40,474 --> 00:11:42,965
Mary Jones' money order
for the rent on that box
260
00:11:43,044 --> 00:11:46,707
came from the Bryant Avenue
Post Office in Mount Kisco.
261
00:11:46,781 --> 00:11:48,338
Mount Kisco?
Wait a minute.
262
00:11:48,415 --> 00:11:51,544
Keene's LUD showed some
calls to Mount Kisco.
263
00:11:51,886 --> 00:11:54,855
Yeah, here we go.
January 14. 9:42 a.m.
264
00:11:54,922 --> 00:11:56,412
That's the day
before the murder.
265
00:12:00,527 --> 00:12:02,927
I know Gilbert Keene.
He's a client.
266
00:12:02,996 --> 00:12:04,691
He phoned here
a couple of days ago.
267
00:12:04,764 --> 00:12:06,699
Do you recall
what that was about?
268
00:12:06,767 --> 00:12:08,165
I talked to him.
269
00:12:08,235 --> 00:12:11,261
We arranged a time to go
look at some carpet samples.
270
00:12:11,338 --> 00:12:12,703
We were doing some
work for his company.
271
00:12:12,772 --> 00:12:15,138
These gentlemen are police
officers from the city.
272
00:12:15,208 --> 00:12:17,971
Ah. Hillary Colson.
I'm Sondra's partner.
273
00:12:18,043 --> 00:12:19,271
When did you go
look at samples?
274
00:12:19,345 --> 00:12:20,403
Last Tuesday.
275
00:12:20,479 --> 00:12:22,379
I took the train in and we
drove around in his car.
276
00:12:22,448 --> 00:12:23,814
How about Wednesday?
277
00:12:23,884 --> 00:12:25,044
Wednesday.
278
00:12:25,118 --> 00:12:26,607
We went into the city.
279
00:12:27,419 --> 00:12:29,148
Sondra and I,
we took a day off.
280
00:12:29,221 --> 00:12:31,553
Went to Bloomingdale's,
Barneys.
281
00:12:31,624 --> 00:12:32,784
How long you been in business?
282
00:12:32,858 --> 00:12:34,655
Eighteen months.
Need any decorating?
283
00:12:34,727 --> 00:12:35,785
No job too small.
284
00:12:35,861 --> 00:12:38,556
Well, my partner's thinking
about getting a new place.
285
00:12:38,630 --> 00:12:39,654
He might need some help.
286
00:12:39,731 --> 00:12:41,222
Yeah, you don't
have a card, do you?
287
00:12:41,300 --> 00:12:42,597
Maybe a brochure?
288
00:12:42,668 --> 00:12:44,101
Yes, we do.
289
00:12:44,837 --> 00:12:47,066
Give us a call.
We have lots of ideas.
290
00:12:50,275 --> 00:12:52,072
So, what do you think?
291
00:12:52,477 --> 00:12:54,069
I think they're lying.
They met with
292
00:12:54,145 --> 00:12:56,305
the security chief
to discuss decorating?
293
00:12:56,380 --> 00:12:58,611
I just hope we can get
prints off of this.
294
00:12:59,484 --> 00:13:02,112
So, Lennie, that stuff about
me needing help decorating,
295
00:13:02,186 --> 00:13:05,053
that was just to get her to
hand me a brochure, right?
296
00:13:05,555 --> 00:13:08,922
Because you know I know how
to put together a room.
297
00:13:09,092 --> 00:13:10,889
Hillary's prints
were all over the car,
298
00:13:10,961 --> 00:13:13,589
steering wheel, steering
column, both door handles.
299
00:13:13,664 --> 00:13:15,529
And the front of Keene's seat.
300
00:13:15,599 --> 00:13:18,966
She was looking at carpet
samples with Gilly Keene.
301
00:13:19,036 --> 00:13:21,300
You think
they're fronting Topaz?
302
00:13:21,371 --> 00:13:23,566
I think they're
both call girls.
303
00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:25,329
And I think those $500 charges
304
00:13:25,408 --> 00:13:26,875
were for services rendered.
305
00:13:27,009 --> 00:13:29,341
$500 for a quickie
in the front seat?
306
00:13:29,412 --> 00:13:31,039
She must have some technique.
307
00:13:31,147 --> 00:13:32,638
Hey, if we can
prove they're pros
308
00:13:32,716 --> 00:13:33,774
we can sweat them a little.
309
00:13:33,850 --> 00:13:35,009
The credit card company gave us
310
00:13:35,084 --> 00:13:36,847
the names of some
other Topaz clients.
311
00:13:40,189 --> 00:13:44,591
I gotta tell you guys, this is
making me very uncomfortable.
312
00:13:44,659 --> 00:13:45,853
Relax. We're not Vice.
313
00:13:47,028 --> 00:13:50,021
First of all, if I do admit
to using the services...
314
00:13:50,099 --> 00:13:52,226
It doesn't go any further
than this room.
315
00:13:52,301 --> 00:13:55,861
Yeah, well, some people think
it's, you know, not right.
316
00:13:56,738 --> 00:13:58,672
What? Knowing what you're
gonna get up front?
317
00:13:58,740 --> 00:13:59,934
I call that practical.
318
00:14:00,208 --> 00:14:01,937
See, you and me think alike.
319
00:14:02,010 --> 00:14:03,705
You recognize
either of these women?
320
00:14:04,511 --> 00:14:08,312
That's Amber. Unbelievable.
And that's Cathy.
321
00:14:10,051 --> 00:14:12,451
I get a chubby
just thinking about her.
322
00:14:14,922 --> 00:14:16,685
Do you know where they went?
323
00:14:16,790 --> 00:14:20,419
Yeah, I think they went to a
basketball game at the middle school.
324
00:14:20,494 --> 00:14:22,257
What are they?
Cheerleaders?
325
00:14:22,429 --> 00:14:23,896
Their kids
are playing.
326
00:14:25,766 --> 00:14:26,926
Ryan!
327
00:14:27,434 --> 00:14:28,458
Ryan!
328
00:14:28,535 --> 00:14:29,524
Go in and get it!
329
00:14:29,737 --> 00:14:31,705
Suburban mommy hookers.
330
00:14:31,772 --> 00:14:34,137
I wonder what the tabloids would
pay for the exclusive on this?
331
00:14:34,207 --> 00:14:36,368
You want to pop them
in front of their kids?
332
00:14:36,442 --> 00:14:38,205
Hey, we got two radio
cars waiting outside.
333
00:14:38,277 --> 00:14:40,576
You want to go tell them that
we felt sorry for the perps?
334
00:14:43,950 --> 00:14:46,384
Detectives?
What are you doing here?
335
00:14:46,452 --> 00:14:47,612
We're in the middle of a game.
336
00:14:47,687 --> 00:14:49,882
Ladies, I'm afraid you're
gonna have to come with us.
337
00:14:49,956 --> 00:14:50,980
Why?
338
00:14:51,090 --> 00:14:52,216
We're placing you under arrest.
339
00:14:52,291 --> 00:14:53,382
If you walk out
with us quietly,
340
00:14:53,458 --> 00:14:55,426
we won't have to cuff you.
Nobody will know.
341
00:14:55,494 --> 00:14:56,518
Honey, what's going on?
342
00:14:56,595 --> 00:14:57,688
If you just step
outside with us,
343
00:14:57,764 --> 00:14:58,788
we can explain everything.
344
00:14:58,865 --> 00:15:00,492
Let's go.
You're not taking my wife anywhere!
345
00:15:00,566 --> 00:15:01,590
Back off.
346
00:15:01,667 --> 00:15:03,293
Your wife is under arrest.
347
00:15:03,835 --> 00:15:05,803
For what?
Prostitution.
348
00:15:08,407 --> 00:15:09,931
The lipstick in Hillary's purse
349
00:15:10,008 --> 00:15:11,236
matched what we found on Keene.
350
00:15:11,309 --> 00:15:13,367
We'll try and get
Sondra to roll first.
351
00:15:13,444 --> 00:15:15,436
Go in to Hillary
with more ammunition.
352
00:15:20,519 --> 00:15:22,782
Two kids.
Volunteer at the hospital.
353
00:15:22,853 --> 00:15:25,879
Co-chair of Citizens
for a Cleaner Mount Kisco.
354
00:15:26,023 --> 00:15:28,719
I wouldn't think you'd want a
prostitution conviction on that resume.
355
00:15:28,793 --> 00:15:29,817
I told you.
356
00:15:29,894 --> 00:15:32,624
I just want to plead
guilty, pay my fine,
357
00:15:32,696 --> 00:15:35,392
and move somewhere
several thousand miles away.
358
00:15:35,466 --> 00:15:36,865
We can save you the trouble.
359
00:15:36,934 --> 00:15:38,993
We can probably get
the charges dropped.
360
00:15:39,904 --> 00:15:41,632
How?
- Your friend Hillary was involved
361
00:15:41,704 --> 00:15:42,898
in something a lot more serious
362
00:15:42,972 --> 00:15:45,133
than turning tricks
between PTA meetings.
363
00:15:46,476 --> 00:15:48,000
We think she killed a man.
364
00:15:49,580 --> 00:15:51,013
Do you know
anything about that?
365
00:15:51,082 --> 00:15:52,207
No.
366
00:15:53,183 --> 00:15:55,708
You weren't with Hillary
last Wednesday, were you?
367
00:15:55,785 --> 00:15:57,980
Yes. I was.
368
00:15:58,054 --> 00:15:59,612
Look, Sondra, I can understand
369
00:15:59,689 --> 00:16:01,315
you want to be loyal
to your friend,
370
00:16:01,857 --> 00:16:03,722
but if we find out
you're lying,
371
00:16:03,792 --> 00:16:05,988
you're getting yourself
in real trouble.
372
00:16:06,062 --> 00:16:08,189
Then we're not just
talking prostitution.
373
00:16:08,264 --> 00:16:10,494
We're talking
obstruction of justice.
374
00:16:10,567 --> 00:16:14,866
So, you think about whether it's
smarter to be a loyal friend
375
00:16:14,937 --> 00:16:17,770
or to tell the truth
and stay out of jail.
376
00:16:20,075 --> 00:16:21,905
The fact that
my client's associate
377
00:16:21,976 --> 00:16:24,036
has admitted guilt is
completely irrelevant.
378
00:16:24,780 --> 00:16:26,247
Hillary is innocent.
379
00:16:26,315 --> 00:16:28,840
So when Sondra testifies about
the call girl operation
380
00:16:28,917 --> 00:16:31,009
you two had going together,
that'll all be lies?
381
00:16:31,085 --> 00:16:32,746
Let's try this case in court.
382
00:16:32,820 --> 00:16:35,880
Hey, the prostitution's
a no-brainer, Hillary.
383
00:16:35,957 --> 00:16:38,949
The other thing is where
you can help yourself.
384
00:16:39,026 --> 00:16:40,084
What other thing?
385
00:16:40,161 --> 00:16:41,719
A homicide.
386
00:16:41,796 --> 00:16:44,026
Gilbert Keene
was shot last week.
387
00:16:44,098 --> 00:16:45,725
He called Hillary
the day before the murder.
388
00:16:46,434 --> 00:16:47,833
So a call was made?
What does that prove?
389
00:16:47,902 --> 00:16:48,994
He was found in his car.
390
00:16:49,537 --> 00:16:51,197
Her prints were all over it.
391
00:16:51,271 --> 00:16:53,262
I took him to look
at carpet samples.
392
00:16:53,340 --> 00:16:54,967
Well, you left
a lipstick sample on him.
393
00:16:55,041 --> 00:16:56,976
You know what we're
talking about Hillary.
394
00:16:57,044 --> 00:16:58,102
Don't say anything.
395
00:16:58,179 --> 00:16:59,645
No,
the time to talk is now.
396
00:16:59,713 --> 00:17:00,771
'Cause if you wait too long,
397
00:17:00,847 --> 00:17:02,041
you're not gonna be
able to help yourself.
398
00:17:02,115 --> 00:17:03,776
We're done.
399
00:17:04,251 --> 00:17:05,616
No, we're not.
400
00:17:05,685 --> 00:17:07,243
Hillary Colson,
you're under arrest
401
00:17:07,320 --> 00:17:08,617
for the murder
of Gilbert Keene.
402
00:17:08,688 --> 00:17:09,676
Would you
please stand up.
403
00:17:09,755 --> 00:17:10,847
You have
the right to remain silent.
404
00:17:10,923 --> 00:17:12,618
Anything you say
can and will be used
405
00:17:12,691 --> 00:17:14,216
against you in a court of law.
406
00:17:16,730 --> 00:17:21,189
What's next?
Camp Fire Girls selling crack?
407
00:17:21,267 --> 00:17:22,996
We know Hillary was hooking,
408
00:17:23,068 --> 00:17:25,195
we know she was in Keene's car,
409
00:17:25,271 --> 00:17:27,739
we know she serviced him.
We just don't know why she killed him.
410
00:17:27,806 --> 00:17:29,136
What does the partner say?
411
00:17:29,207 --> 00:17:30,765
We offered her a walk.
412
00:17:30,843 --> 00:17:31,969
She's still pleading guilty
413
00:17:32,044 --> 00:17:33,636
and backing Hillary's alibi.
414
00:17:33,746 --> 00:17:35,646
They were shopping together
on the day of the murder
415
00:17:35,714 --> 00:17:36,772
in big department stores.
416
00:17:36,849 --> 00:17:39,146
They paid cash and threw
away their receipts.
417
00:17:39,217 --> 00:17:40,650
Sound a tad rehearsed?
418
00:17:40,718 --> 00:17:42,208
Talk to Hillary's husband.
419
00:17:42,287 --> 00:17:43,879
Maybe he's not
as good an actor.
420
00:17:44,622 --> 00:17:46,351
I shouldn't even
be talking to you.
421
00:17:46,424 --> 00:17:47,482
Why?
422
00:17:47,559 --> 00:17:50,585
Because you're not prosecuting my wife.
You're persecuting her.
423
00:17:50,662 --> 00:17:53,597
I think if you really believed
that, you wouldn't talk.
424
00:17:53,665 --> 00:17:55,599
Oh, she won't be
in jail for long.
425
00:17:55,667 --> 00:17:58,829
If we weren't mortgaged up to our
eyeballs, she'd be out by now.
426
00:17:58,902 --> 00:18:01,632
I'm gonna borrow from my
pension fund and then...
427
00:18:01,705 --> 00:18:03,036
And then what?
428
00:18:04,041 --> 00:18:07,807
She'll be back home.
You think it'll be like old times?
429
00:18:07,878 --> 00:18:09,539
She didn't do anything.
430
00:18:09,613 --> 00:18:10,978
Sondra confessed.
431
00:18:11,048 --> 00:18:12,879
She admitted they
were prostitutes.
432
00:18:12,950 --> 00:18:14,781
Why would she make
something like that up?
433
00:18:14,851 --> 00:18:17,376
Your wife was turning tricks.
434
00:18:17,454 --> 00:18:19,080
I'd be calling
a divorce lawyer.
435
00:18:20,122 --> 00:18:21,953
What did she tell you?
436
00:18:22,025 --> 00:18:24,858
She told me
she didn't do anything.
437
00:18:26,296 --> 00:18:27,762
You still care for her.
438
00:18:32,702 --> 00:18:34,101
Of course.
439
00:18:35,338 --> 00:18:37,430
Your wife is
obviously very confused.
440
00:18:39,442 --> 00:18:42,411
She sacrificed a loving
husband and two children.
441
00:18:42,478 --> 00:18:43,945
We're still a family.
442
00:18:44,013 --> 00:18:45,571
Maybe you
and the kids are.
443
00:18:46,881 --> 00:18:48,542
That could change, too.
444
00:18:48,617 --> 00:18:49,709
What do you mean?
445
00:18:49,784 --> 00:18:52,753
If your wife is convicted of
murder, she's going to jail.
446
00:18:53,688 --> 00:18:57,522
If you're convicted of obstruction of
justice, you're going to jail, too.
447
00:18:58,126 --> 00:19:01,061
That puts the kids in a
foster home, Mr. Colson.
448
00:19:01,129 --> 00:19:02,323
You can't do that!
449
00:19:02,397 --> 00:19:03,523
We can and we will.
450
00:19:03,598 --> 00:19:05,964
I didn't know.
How is that obstruction?
451
00:19:06,533 --> 00:19:07,966
What did she tell you?
452
00:19:08,035 --> 00:19:09,935
She didn't tell me anything.
453
00:19:14,276 --> 00:19:16,641
I went over Keene's
credit card bills again.
454
00:19:16,710 --> 00:19:18,302
Almost every time
there's a Topaz charge,
455
00:19:18,379 --> 00:19:20,939
there's a charge the same day
for the Barrington Arms Hotel.
456
00:19:21,015 --> 00:19:22,983
The love nest.
Could be.
457
00:19:23,050 --> 00:19:25,518
The last charge was made three
weeks before the murder.
458
00:19:26,486 --> 00:19:28,078
Maybe they changed hotels?
459
00:19:28,154 --> 00:19:29,678
It's not on
the credit card bills.
460
00:19:29,756 --> 00:19:30,951
Maybe they had a falling out
461
00:19:31,025 --> 00:19:32,219
and stopped seeing each other.
462
00:19:32,293 --> 00:19:33,351
I'll go over to
the Barrington Arms
463
00:19:33,427 --> 00:19:35,292
and see if
anybody saw them there.
464
00:19:35,962 --> 00:19:37,429
Jamie?
465
00:19:38,398 --> 00:19:39,956
Is something wrong?
466
00:19:40,700 --> 00:19:42,930
When we're talking
to a possible witness,
467
00:19:43,002 --> 00:19:44,128
when we're talking to anyone,
468
00:19:44,203 --> 00:19:46,067
I don't appreciate you
misrepresenting the truth
469
00:19:46,138 --> 00:19:47,538
for the sake of a case.
470
00:19:48,708 --> 00:19:50,039
What are you talking about?
471
00:19:50,109 --> 00:19:52,703
You told Louis Colson we could charge
him with obstruction of justice
472
00:19:52,779 --> 00:19:53,973
and have his kids taken away.
473
00:19:54,047 --> 00:19:56,105
If he testifies falsely.
474
00:19:56,181 --> 00:19:59,844
It's coercing a witness, and even
if it couldn't get me censured,
475
00:19:59,918 --> 00:20:00,907
I wouldn't do it.
476
00:20:00,986 --> 00:20:03,784
I wouldn't threaten a parent
with removal of his children.
477
00:20:04,691 --> 00:20:06,419
Before I posed the threat,
478
00:20:06,491 --> 00:20:08,459
did you believe that he
was hiding something?
479
00:20:09,194 --> 00:20:10,218
Yes.
480
00:20:10,295 --> 00:20:11,421
And how about now?
481
00:20:11,496 --> 00:20:12,588
I believe he's being honest.
482
00:20:12,664 --> 00:20:13,722
I don't think he knew anything.
483
00:20:13,799 --> 00:20:16,198
I agree with you,
but I had to find out.
484
00:20:16,267 --> 00:20:17,427
It was cruel.
485
00:20:22,341 --> 00:20:25,002
Mr. Keene is
definitely a regular.
486
00:20:25,076 --> 00:20:26,771
One-night stays in
our junior suites
487
00:20:26,844 --> 00:20:30,211
every week
through three weeks ago.
488
00:20:30,281 --> 00:20:32,146
Nothing since then.
You're sure you don't know him?
489
00:20:32,216 --> 00:20:33,342
You've never seen him before?
490
00:20:33,417 --> 00:20:34,542
Look at the picture.
491
00:20:34,617 --> 00:20:36,448
I'm sorry and I'm surprised.
492
00:20:36,519 --> 00:20:37,713
I think I should've remembered.
493
00:20:37,787 --> 00:20:39,722
We try to meet all of
our repeat customers.
494
00:20:39,790 --> 00:20:42,088
But he probably checked in
and out at unusual times.
495
00:20:42,827 --> 00:20:44,953
Jose, do you know this man?
496
00:20:46,363 --> 00:20:47,591
No, doesn't ring a bell.
497
00:20:47,664 --> 00:20:49,757
But I'm not too good
with faces.
498
00:20:49,833 --> 00:20:51,596
He was a regular.
Always on the 10th floor.
499
00:20:51,668 --> 00:20:53,135
Always ordered
champagne and caviar.
500
00:20:53,203 --> 00:20:55,763
Tips, I remember.
Guy probably doesn't tip too good.
501
00:20:55,839 --> 00:20:57,204
What about her?
502
00:20:57,273 --> 00:20:58,706
Oh, yeah, her I remember.
503
00:20:58,775 --> 00:21:00,504
But she comes
with a different guy.
504
00:21:00,577 --> 00:21:01,703
Who?
505
00:21:01,778 --> 00:21:03,870
I don't know the name.
He's a good tipper.
506
00:21:04,513 --> 00:21:05,707
What does he look like?
507
00:21:06,181 --> 00:21:08,809
Brown hair, tan.
508
00:21:08,884 --> 00:21:12,912
He wears shirts colored like ice
cream, you know, yellow, pink.
509
00:21:14,723 --> 00:21:16,520
The hotel staff identified you
510
00:21:16,592 --> 00:21:18,059
as the man they
saw with Hillary.
511
00:21:19,461 --> 00:21:21,258
You're an intelligent man,
Mr. Bernum.
512
00:21:21,330 --> 00:21:22,763
What would you think?
513
00:21:22,831 --> 00:21:24,457
You're keeping company
with a woman
514
00:21:24,532 --> 00:21:26,363
accused of
killing your employee,
515
00:21:26,434 --> 00:21:28,834
yet you don't even
mention that relationship.
516
00:21:30,105 --> 00:21:34,700
You deny knowing what Topaz Enterprises is.
You lied to us.
517
00:21:35,443 --> 00:21:38,105
I didn't know what Topaz was.
I never see the bills.
518
00:21:39,447 --> 00:21:41,415
I'm feeling charitable.
I'm gonna give you a mulligan.
519
00:21:41,482 --> 00:21:45,474
But if your next shot isn't on the
fairway, you're going to jail.
520
00:21:46,486 --> 00:21:49,115
I had nothing to do with Gilly's death.
I swear it.
521
00:21:50,591 --> 00:21:52,558
And I can't believe
that Cathy did either.
522
00:21:53,827 --> 00:21:56,489
I mean, Hillary.
I knew her as Cathy.
523
00:21:56,563 --> 00:21:57,996
Why was she with Keene?
524
00:21:58,064 --> 00:21:59,190
I had asked him...
525
00:21:59,499 --> 00:22:01,898
It seems so ridiculous now.
I had asked him to find her.
526
00:22:03,736 --> 00:22:04,795
But the morning of his death,
527
00:22:04,871 --> 00:22:05,895
he told me he hadn't yet.
528
00:22:05,972 --> 00:22:07,769
Why did you want him
to find her?
529
00:22:07,841 --> 00:22:09,536
A few weeks ago,
530
00:22:09,609 --> 00:22:11,406
Hillary told me that she
didn't want to see me anymore.
531
00:22:14,647 --> 00:22:16,171
Well, you gotta understand,
532
00:22:17,650 --> 00:22:18,776
the two hours we spent together
533
00:22:18,851 --> 00:22:19,909
were the highlight of my week.
534
00:22:22,788 --> 00:22:24,085
I wanted to spend
more time with her.
535
00:22:24,156 --> 00:22:26,590
I wanted to travel with
her, but she said no.
536
00:22:27,226 --> 00:22:28,921
But I had to see her.
I couldn't help myself.
537
00:22:29,028 --> 00:22:31,962
And then she just disappeared.
I couldn't reach her.
538
00:22:33,431 --> 00:22:35,023
So I told Gilly to find her.
539
00:22:36,768 --> 00:22:38,532
I finally met the woman
I always wanted.
540
00:22:38,604 --> 00:22:41,504
Smart, funny, sophisticated.
541
00:22:43,174 --> 00:22:46,007
And she ends up being
a suburban housewife.
542
00:22:46,411 --> 00:22:48,242
Just like the one
you have at home.
543
00:22:56,588 --> 00:22:58,579
We have evidence which
puts you in Keene's car,
544
00:22:58,656 --> 00:23:00,589
in close physical contact.
545
00:23:00,657 --> 00:23:02,215
We've been over this, McCoy.
546
00:23:02,292 --> 00:23:04,260
They were looking
at carpet samples.
547
00:23:04,328 --> 00:23:06,626
Sondra will testify
that Fox Hill Decor
548
00:23:06,697 --> 00:23:08,927
never provided any
decorating services
549
00:23:08,999 --> 00:23:10,431
to the Bernum Woods Company.
550
00:23:11,300 --> 00:23:12,996
Four Topaz clients
will testify
551
00:23:13,070 --> 00:23:15,197
that Hillary provided sex
in exchange for money.
552
00:23:15,539 --> 00:23:19,635
And they're all alive. She didn't kill them.
And she didn't kill Keene.
553
00:23:20,343 --> 00:23:21,401
Why on earth would she?
554
00:23:21,477 --> 00:23:23,775
Now we have that
piece of the puzzle.
555
00:23:23,846 --> 00:23:25,370
Mac Bernum told us everything.
556
00:23:26,449 --> 00:23:27,711
Quite a romantic, isn't he?
557
00:23:27,783 --> 00:23:29,683
Bernum's going to testify, too.
558
00:23:29,752 --> 00:23:31,617
About his becoming
obsessed with you.
559
00:23:31,687 --> 00:23:32,676
About how you disappeared
560
00:23:32,755 --> 00:23:34,689
when he pressured you
to become his girlfriend,
561
00:23:34,757 --> 00:23:37,123
and about sending Gilly
Keene out to find you.
562
00:23:37,193 --> 00:23:39,252
Who did Keene threaten to tell?
Bernum?
563
00:23:40,262 --> 00:23:41,456
Your husband?
564
00:23:45,166 --> 00:23:47,465
Can I get back to you?
We need to talk.
565
00:23:48,404 --> 00:23:49,927
I'd like to be
a fly on the wall.
566
00:23:50,005 --> 00:23:51,438
They're gonna ask for man one.
567
00:23:51,506 --> 00:23:53,997
They wish.
No way we're going less than 15.
568
00:23:54,075 --> 00:23:56,134
The blackmail can be
a mitigating factor.
569
00:23:56,211 --> 00:23:58,111
It's the motive,
not the defense.
570
00:23:59,013 --> 00:24:02,278
They're gonna be blowing a lot
of smoke at us. We play tough.
571
00:24:02,349 --> 00:24:04,443
We're holding all the cards.
572
00:24:04,719 --> 00:24:08,280
Jack, there's a notice
of substitution on the way.
573
00:24:08,356 --> 00:24:12,257
Colson fired Metzler.
Lanie Stieglitz is riding to the rescue.
574
00:24:13,027 --> 00:24:15,518
The Betty Friedan militia?
What the hell's she up to?
575
00:24:17,498 --> 00:24:20,295
I'm surprised, Lanie.
I didn't know prostitutes
576
00:24:20,366 --> 00:24:21,766
were in your hall of heroines.
577
00:24:22,369 --> 00:24:24,929
Lady Justice had my
name on this one, Jack.
578
00:24:25,005 --> 00:24:27,997
The sexual exploitation
of women. Hi, dear.
579
00:24:28,975 --> 00:24:32,138
I'm gonna kick your backside
all over that courtroom.
580
00:24:32,245 --> 00:24:34,179
I don't want to deprive
you of your fun,
581
00:24:34,247 --> 00:24:36,044
but this doesn't have
to go to a courtroom.
582
00:24:36,149 --> 00:24:40,609
Ooh. A plea?
What is that?
583
00:24:40,687 --> 00:24:43,815
Good manners, or is the old
man twisting your arm?
584
00:24:43,890 --> 00:24:45,323
It's generosity.
585
00:24:45,391 --> 00:24:48,223
We're offering your client
murder two, 20-to-life.
586
00:24:49,494 --> 00:24:51,485
Why don't we all
listen to her story?
587
00:24:51,563 --> 00:24:54,965
And then we can talk a little
bit more about generosity.
588
00:24:58,036 --> 00:24:59,264
Okay, Hillary.
589
00:25:01,306 --> 00:25:04,469
Keene called me.
He said he got my pager number
590
00:25:04,543 --> 00:25:06,943
from some friends of his
and could we meet.
591
00:25:07,478 --> 00:25:09,469
We met at the Oak Bar
at The Plaza.
592
00:25:09,547 --> 00:25:13,712
He seemed nice enough,
and we decided to leave.
593
00:25:15,754 --> 00:25:18,415
He said the manager at The
Carlyle was a friend of his.
594
00:25:18,489 --> 00:25:20,116
We could get a suite.
595
00:25:21,225 --> 00:25:24,854
I usually refused to get
in a car with any client.
596
00:25:26,297 --> 00:25:29,824
But he had a nice car, and we
were only going a few blocks.
597
00:25:30,668 --> 00:25:33,728
So, soon as I got in the car,
598
00:25:33,804 --> 00:25:35,203
he told me
he worked for Bernum.
599
00:25:36,073 --> 00:25:39,007
And knew about me.
He showed me his gun
600
00:25:40,276 --> 00:25:42,437
and drove over to
the West Side Highway.
601
00:25:44,214 --> 00:25:46,978
He told me I had two choices.
602
00:25:48,518 --> 00:25:52,921
I could go back and become Mac's
girlfriend, or I could service him,
603
00:25:53,923 --> 00:25:57,050
free of charge,
whenever he wanted.
604
00:25:58,027 --> 00:26:00,188
I said I wouldn't do either,
605
00:26:00,262 --> 00:26:01,422
and I tried to
get out of the car.
606
00:26:01,497 --> 00:26:03,125
He grabbed me by my wrist
607
00:26:03,199 --> 00:26:05,030
and said he was
deciding for me.
608
00:26:06,802 --> 00:26:09,498
He put his hand on his gun,
609
00:26:09,571 --> 00:26:13,268
said I was his girlfriend,
starting now,
610
00:26:15,411 --> 00:26:20,178
and if I didn't do what he wanted,
he would go to my husband.
611
00:26:22,685 --> 00:26:25,517
That's when he
grabbed me by my hair.
612
00:26:26,921 --> 00:26:32,655
I tried to pull away
and he shoved my head down.
613
00:26:37,632 --> 00:26:38,621
I...
614
00:26:41,302 --> 00:26:42,291
I...
615
00:26:45,305 --> 00:26:47,739
I grabbed his gun
and I shot him.
616
00:26:51,211 --> 00:26:53,907
If it was self-defense,
617
00:26:55,082 --> 00:26:57,744
why didn't you go to the police
and tell them what happened?
618
00:26:58,618 --> 00:27:01,746
My life would have been
exposed to everyone.
619
00:27:03,323 --> 00:27:04,755
I told my husband.
620
00:27:06,759 --> 00:27:08,192
He agreed with me.
621
00:27:08,260 --> 00:27:09,318
You could have
gone to the police
622
00:27:09,395 --> 00:27:10,919
after you told your husband.
623
00:27:11,898 --> 00:27:13,763
He said they
wouldn't believe me.
624
00:27:16,736 --> 00:27:20,934
I swear to you,
I was just protecting myself.
625
00:27:21,006 --> 00:27:23,735
I thought Keene
was going to kill me.
626
00:27:32,718 --> 00:27:34,480
She had two good reasons
to kill him.
627
00:27:34,552 --> 00:27:37,020
He was raping her and he
might expose her secret.
628
00:27:37,489 --> 00:27:41,255
One gets her acquitted.
The other gets her 25-years-to-life. Thanks.
629
00:27:41,726 --> 00:27:43,784
And I think this claim
of rape is a crock.
630
00:27:45,062 --> 00:27:47,088
So she just dropped
her lipstick on him?
631
00:27:47,165 --> 00:27:48,996
There was sexual contact.
632
00:27:49,067 --> 00:27:51,627
She's a prostitute.
Don't they do that for a living?
633
00:27:51,703 --> 00:27:54,262
She can't be raped
because she's a prostitute?
634
00:27:54,338 --> 00:27:56,363
No. She just isn't
credible, that's all.
635
00:27:57,441 --> 00:27:58,965
She just as likely used sex
636
00:27:59,042 --> 00:28:01,237
to put Keene at ease
before shooting him.
637
00:28:01,311 --> 00:28:04,508
Lucky for you, the defense has
the burden of proving rape.
638
00:28:04,581 --> 00:28:06,572
Well, don't pop
the champagne yet.
639
00:28:06,650 --> 00:28:09,710
She's a sympathetic defendant
with two small children.
640
00:28:09,820 --> 00:28:11,344
The victim wasn't
exactly a saint.
641
00:28:11,421 --> 00:28:13,149
If she were my client,
I'd have a field day.
642
00:28:13,222 --> 00:28:15,986
With no evidence to support
rape except her word?
643
00:28:16,058 --> 00:28:19,392
He drove her to an out-of-the-way place.
He had rape on his mind.
644
00:28:19,463 --> 00:28:23,023
She got into his car willingly.
She had murder on hers.
645
00:28:23,099 --> 00:28:25,158
One fact, two sharp edges.
646
00:28:26,502 --> 00:28:29,369
You're gonna need an
extra-large box of Band-Aids.
647
00:28:30,206 --> 00:28:32,799
It's still murder two.
But we'll drop the minimum to 15.
648
00:28:32,874 --> 00:28:35,809
Peel off the testosterone
patch, Miss Ross.
649
00:28:35,877 --> 00:28:37,436
You're thinking
under the influence.
650
00:28:37,547 --> 00:28:40,175
You can sing "I am woman"
loud as you want,
651
00:28:40,750 --> 00:28:42,808
but it's not gonna do
your client any good.
652
00:28:42,918 --> 00:28:45,512
She has no witnesses and no
physical evidence at all
653
00:28:45,587 --> 00:28:47,885
to suggest that the sex was
anything but consensual.
654
00:28:47,989 --> 00:28:50,082
Except that Gilbert Keene
655
00:28:50,158 --> 00:28:53,183
makes Mike Tyson look like
Little Lord Fauntleroy, maybe.
656
00:28:53,427 --> 00:28:56,056
If I were you, I wouldn't bet the
farm on the character issue.
657
00:28:56,231 --> 00:28:59,257
My money's on the husband.
He'll corroborate her story.
658
00:29:00,335 --> 00:29:01,699
Man one, 10-to-20.
659
00:29:01,769 --> 00:29:03,134
I want the charges dismissed.
660
00:29:04,071 --> 00:29:05,333
You can't be serious.
661
00:29:06,340 --> 00:29:08,205
Jack, you're already
on the run.
662
00:29:12,913 --> 00:29:16,144
Hillary was afraid Bernum
would find out who she really was.
663
00:29:16,517 --> 00:29:18,747
And show up on
her doorstep one day
664
00:29:18,819 --> 00:29:21,252
while the Cub Scouts
were meeting at her house.
665
00:29:22,522 --> 00:29:26,720
And that her husband and
everybody else in Mount Kisco
666
00:29:26,793 --> 00:29:29,024
would find out
about her other life.
667
00:29:29,129 --> 00:29:31,961
And what precautions did Miss
Colson take to prevent that?
668
00:29:35,268 --> 00:29:37,327
You're under oath, Miss Benton.
669
00:29:37,403 --> 00:29:39,496
What precautions
did Hillary take?
670
00:29:40,973 --> 00:29:43,066
She changed her pager number.
671
00:29:43,141 --> 00:29:47,238
What else did she do to stop Mac
Bernum from finding out who she was?
672
00:29:47,780 --> 00:29:50,771
She was afraid
Bernum would follow her,
673
00:29:50,849 --> 00:29:53,443
so she started taking
different routes home.
674
00:29:53,518 --> 00:29:56,009
She changed
the name she went by.
675
00:29:56,088 --> 00:29:59,887
She even begged me to move the
store and the post office box.
676
00:30:00,491 --> 00:30:02,084
And she was right.
677
00:30:03,295 --> 00:30:04,990
I'm sorry, Hil.
678
00:30:05,063 --> 00:30:06,291
No further questions.
679
00:30:14,672 --> 00:30:15,798
Miss Benton,
680
00:30:17,608 --> 00:30:20,304
men paid you a small fortune
681
00:30:20,378 --> 00:30:23,677
to do things you might not
otherwise do, isn't that right?
682
00:30:23,748 --> 00:30:26,182
No. I did things
I wanted to do.
683
00:30:26,250 --> 00:30:27,945
I just got paid to do them.
684
00:30:28,019 --> 00:30:30,646
Were you ever asked to
do anything you didn't want to do?
685
00:30:34,157 --> 00:30:35,647
Yes.
686
00:30:35,792 --> 00:30:38,818
And if you refused,
what happened?
687
00:30:41,164 --> 00:30:43,860
Once, a man threatened
me with a knife.
688
00:30:45,001 --> 00:30:50,267
He ordered me to
do what he asked.
689
00:30:51,407 --> 00:30:53,171
I had no choice.
690
00:30:53,643 --> 00:30:55,804
Did you tell my client
about that incident?
691
00:30:55,879 --> 00:30:57,608
Objection.
Relevance.
692
00:30:57,681 --> 00:31:00,148
I'll allow it,
subject to connection.
693
00:31:00,382 --> 00:31:01,440
Answer the question.
694
00:31:01,517 --> 00:31:04,975
Yes. I told Hillary.
It frightened her.
695
00:31:05,087 --> 00:31:10,024
And did Hillary take any special
precautions from then on?
696
00:31:10,125 --> 00:31:12,593
She started to carry
pepper spray with her
697
00:31:12,661 --> 00:31:15,892
and she would never meet new
clients in their homes.
698
00:31:15,965 --> 00:31:18,626
Only in neutral places,
like hotels.
699
00:31:19,901 --> 00:31:25,567
She was bright, charming, never
depressed or unwilling to please.
700
00:31:25,940 --> 00:31:28,465
And very proper.
She was every man's dream.
701
00:31:28,543 --> 00:31:31,341
But you didn't pay her
to be charming and bright.
702
00:31:31,746 --> 00:31:33,771
You paid her for her
willingness to please.
703
00:31:33,848 --> 00:31:35,611
Is that right?
That's right.
704
00:31:35,683 --> 00:31:39,812
What happened once you let your
feelings for the defendant be known?
705
00:31:39,886 --> 00:31:41,581
She quit returning
my phone calls.
706
00:31:41,655 --> 00:31:42,781
She changed her phone number.
707
00:31:42,856 --> 00:31:44,552
She dropped off the map.
708
00:31:44,625 --> 00:31:45,887
What did you do?
709
00:31:46,494 --> 00:31:50,293
I asked my security man, Gilbert
Keene, to look for her.
710
00:31:51,131 --> 00:31:52,564
He never told me he found her.
711
00:31:52,632 --> 00:31:54,259
If he had,
what would you have done?
712
00:31:54,334 --> 00:31:56,131
I would've gone to see her.
713
00:31:58,204 --> 00:32:01,504
But he never had the chance
to tell you, did he?
714
00:32:02,109 --> 00:32:03,098
No.
715
00:32:04,845 --> 00:32:07,574
You were Mr. Keene's best friend.
What was he like?
716
00:32:07,646 --> 00:32:10,171
He was generous to a fault.
717
00:32:10,249 --> 00:32:12,740
A totally dependable,
honest man.
718
00:32:13,019 --> 00:32:14,486
I trusted him with everything.
719
00:32:14,553 --> 00:32:15,747
Thank you.
720
00:32:18,457 --> 00:32:22,359
When you let your true feelings
for my client be known,
721
00:32:22,428 --> 00:32:23,656
did she become alarmed?
722
00:32:23,729 --> 00:32:25,822
She said she didn't want
a relationship like that.
723
00:32:25,898 --> 00:32:27,159
Did she become violent?
724
00:32:27,232 --> 00:32:28,426
No.
725
00:32:28,533 --> 00:32:31,798
Did she say she'd kill you
if you tracked her down?
726
00:32:31,870 --> 00:32:35,237
No. She just vanished.
That's all.
727
00:32:35,306 --> 00:32:38,139
That's all. Thanks.
728
00:32:39,677 --> 00:32:42,908
Mr. Keene said that he would
have me fired or arrested
729
00:32:42,981 --> 00:32:44,278
if I didn't do what he wanted.
730
00:32:44,349 --> 00:32:46,407
Which was what, Miss Tennick?
731
00:32:46,984 --> 00:32:49,009
What did he want from you?
732
00:32:50,454 --> 00:32:53,253
He wanted sex,
whether I liked it or not.
733
00:32:53,358 --> 00:32:55,019
No more questions.
734
00:32:57,594 --> 00:32:59,357
Ms. Tennick,
735
00:33:00,531 --> 00:33:03,159
did Mr. Keene ever
threaten physical violence
736
00:33:03,233 --> 00:33:04,825
if you didn't have
sex with him?
737
00:33:05,601 --> 00:33:08,900
No, but I didn't think
that I had a choice.
738
00:33:08,971 --> 00:33:10,462
I didn't want to get fired.
739
00:33:10,541 --> 00:33:11,803
And after you had sex with him,
740
00:33:11,875 --> 00:33:13,240
did you report it as rape?
741
00:33:13,310 --> 00:33:14,334
No, but...
742
00:33:14,411 --> 00:33:15,638
Because you weren't raped.
743
00:33:15,711 --> 00:33:18,111
You were blackmailed,
isn't that right?
744
00:33:18,181 --> 00:33:21,344
It was sexual harassment.
It's illegal.
745
00:33:21,417 --> 00:33:23,977
Well, isn't stealing from
your employer also illegal?
746
00:33:24,053 --> 00:33:26,213
Objection!
747
00:33:26,288 --> 00:33:28,883
Withdrawn.
No further questions.
748
00:33:32,929 --> 00:33:35,226
I worked with Gilly Keene
for five years
749
00:33:35,297 --> 00:33:37,959
in the neighborhood
stabilization unit.
750
00:33:38,033 --> 00:33:39,295
Arresting prostitutes?
751
00:33:39,367 --> 00:33:40,493
Yes.
752
00:33:40,569 --> 00:33:41,866
Mmm-hmm.
753
00:33:43,105 --> 00:33:47,064
Isn't it a fact that a known
prostitute named Debbi Devine
754
00:33:47,142 --> 00:33:48,302
filed a civilian complaint
755
00:33:48,376 --> 00:33:51,038
against Officer Keene in 1978,
756
00:33:51,113 --> 00:33:54,013
alleging she was arrested
after she refused
757
00:33:54,081 --> 00:33:55,912
to have intercourse with him?
758
00:33:56,016 --> 00:33:57,745
That was dismissed.
759
00:33:58,152 --> 00:33:59,176
Mmm-hmm.
760
00:33:59,253 --> 00:34:01,154
Didn't a prostitute
named Lisa Morales
761
00:34:01,223 --> 00:34:04,214
file a similar complaint
against Officer Keene
762
00:34:04,291 --> 00:34:06,122
in 1981?
763
00:34:06,227 --> 00:34:09,321
Doesn't cost 10 cents
to file one of those things.
764
00:34:09,396 --> 00:34:10,988
Was anyone else in your unit
765
00:34:11,065 --> 00:34:13,464
the subject of
a disciplinary proceeding
766
00:34:13,533 --> 00:34:15,558
initiated by a prostitute?
767
00:34:16,736 --> 00:34:17,931
Not that I know of.
768
00:34:18,005 --> 00:34:19,029
Thank you.
769
00:34:22,243 --> 00:34:23,573
Did any of those
complaints allege
770
00:34:23,643 --> 00:34:25,736
that Officer Keene
used violence?
771
00:34:25,812 --> 00:34:27,439
No, they did not.
772
00:34:27,547 --> 00:34:28,809
Do you know why the complaints
773
00:34:28,882 --> 00:34:30,645
against Officer Keene
were dismissed?
774
00:34:30,717 --> 00:34:35,654
Yeah, the CCRB didn't find any
evidence to back up the charges.
775
00:34:35,855 --> 00:34:37,220
Thank you.
776
00:34:38,191 --> 00:34:39,749
The late Gilly Keene's
not sitting too well
777
00:34:39,826 --> 00:34:41,555
with some of our female jurors.
778
00:34:41,628 --> 00:34:45,119
Juror number five is nodding her
head in all the wrong places.
779
00:34:45,831 --> 00:34:49,767
One seminar with a jury
consultant and she's an expert.
780
00:34:49,902 --> 00:34:52,530
Two seminars and
six years of voir dire.
781
00:34:52,838 --> 00:34:54,635
Any other observations?
782
00:34:54,706 --> 00:34:56,298
Lay off trying to make Keene
out to be a boy scout.
783
00:34:56,375 --> 00:34:57,399
He wasn't.
784
00:34:57,476 --> 00:34:58,773
And it's not playing.
785
00:34:58,844 --> 00:34:59,970
Right. Good.
786
00:35:00,045 --> 00:35:01,444
Who's their next witness?
787
00:35:01,513 --> 00:35:02,774
Louis Colson.
788
00:35:03,781 --> 00:35:05,339
The cuckold husband?
789
00:35:05,416 --> 00:35:06,940
The jury might
be sympathetic.
790
00:35:07,018 --> 00:35:09,613
A poor man wronged,
two motherless kids,
791
00:35:09,688 --> 00:35:11,985
a wife who says
she was a victim.
792
00:35:12,056 --> 00:35:15,219
Who turns tricks
in her spare time.
793
00:35:15,293 --> 00:35:17,420
He's gotta be angry about it.
794
00:35:17,628 --> 00:35:18,652
Use it.
795
00:35:21,631 --> 00:35:24,327
Hillary told me about Keene,
796
00:35:24,401 --> 00:35:26,063
about how he raped her.
797
00:35:26,904 --> 00:35:29,896
About why she was in his car.
798
00:35:29,974 --> 00:35:31,202
I was floored.
799
00:35:31,374 --> 00:35:33,399
And in spite of everything,
800
00:35:33,476 --> 00:35:35,603
you're here,
testifying on her behalf?
801
00:35:35,679 --> 00:35:37,874
I'll never understand
the way she acted.
802
00:35:37,948 --> 00:35:41,906
I mean, the prostitution.
803
00:35:43,753 --> 00:35:45,186
But I believe she
told me the truth
804
00:35:45,255 --> 00:35:47,246
about what happened
in that car.
805
00:35:47,324 --> 00:35:48,313
Thanks.
806
00:35:52,895 --> 00:35:55,329
I'm a little confused,
Mr. Colson.
807
00:35:57,933 --> 00:36:00,300
Your wife comes to you in tears
808
00:36:01,203 --> 00:36:04,639
and tells you that she just
killed a man who raped her,
809
00:36:04,707 --> 00:36:07,073
and you tell her not
to go to the police?
810
00:36:07,142 --> 00:36:09,269
I was afraid they
wouldn't believe her.
811
00:36:09,345 --> 00:36:11,972
You must have known that
they would track her down?
812
00:36:12,046 --> 00:36:14,606
The only thing
I know for certain
813
00:36:14,682 --> 00:36:17,345
is that she killed that
bastard in self-defense.
814
00:36:20,622 --> 00:36:23,022
You must really love your wife.
815
00:36:24,058 --> 00:36:28,518
She's betrayed you in the most
egregious way imaginable,
816
00:36:28,630 --> 00:36:30,824
and you're still willing to
lie for her, aren't you?
817
00:36:30,897 --> 00:36:32,592
I am not lying.
818
00:36:32,666 --> 00:36:34,999
I was protecting myself and
my children from the shame.
819
00:36:35,069 --> 00:36:36,661
We have been humiliated.
820
00:36:36,738 --> 00:36:39,332
Your wife humiliated you, didn't she?
821
00:36:41,708 --> 00:36:44,302
How do you feel about her having
sex with strangers, for money,
822
00:36:44,378 --> 00:36:45,868
right under your nose?
Objection!
823
00:36:45,946 --> 00:36:47,504
Don't you think
about what she did
824
00:36:47,581 --> 00:36:48,605
with all those other men?
825
00:36:48,682 --> 00:36:50,148
Sustained, Mr. McCoy.
826
00:36:50,216 --> 00:36:52,617
Did you really think that your
life could go back to normal?
827
00:36:52,686 --> 00:36:53,948
I didn't think about that.
828
00:36:54,021 --> 00:36:55,352
No! You didn't
think about it
829
00:36:55,422 --> 00:36:57,390
because she didn't
tell you about it
830
00:36:57,491 --> 00:37:00,584
until after she was arrested.
831
00:37:00,660 --> 00:37:02,059
Isn't that right?
No!
832
00:37:02,128 --> 00:37:03,652
She never told you
833
00:37:03,729 --> 00:37:07,460
that she had killed Gilbert
Keene in self-defense.
834
00:37:08,367 --> 00:37:09,391
Isn't that right?
835
00:37:09,468 --> 00:37:12,062
No! It happened
exactly the way I said.
836
00:37:12,138 --> 00:37:14,902
Then you lied to the police
837
00:37:14,974 --> 00:37:16,805
when you told them
that you knew nothing.
838
00:37:18,977 --> 00:37:22,572
You lied to me when you
told me in your office.
839
00:37:22,647 --> 00:37:27,551
Didn't you say to me, "My wife
didn't tell me anything"?
840
00:37:29,854 --> 00:37:31,549
Which is it,
Mr. Colson?
841
00:37:33,258 --> 00:37:36,785
Were you lying then,
or are you lying now?
842
00:37:40,331 --> 00:37:42,196
He showed me his gun,
843
00:37:42,266 --> 00:37:46,135
grabbed me by my hair
and forced my head down.
844
00:37:46,838 --> 00:37:48,202
I was so frightened.
I panicked.
845
00:37:48,272 --> 00:37:50,797
I grabbed his gun and shot him.
846
00:37:50,941 --> 00:37:53,671
Why didn't you go
straight to the police?
847
00:37:53,744 --> 00:37:56,338
I guess at that moment I
realized that they'd look at me
848
00:37:56,413 --> 00:38:01,783
not as a housewife from Mount
Kisco, but as a whore.
849
00:38:01,952 --> 00:38:03,817
I didn't want to
do that to my family.
850
00:38:03,887 --> 00:38:06,583
You had a pretty nice life,
didn't you?
851
00:38:06,790 --> 00:38:13,592
Yes. A devoted husband, two
wonderful children, a business,
852
00:38:15,298 --> 00:38:16,926
a wonderful home.
853
00:38:17,900 --> 00:38:23,031
And despite all that, you
decided to become a prostitute.
854
00:38:26,242 --> 00:38:30,234
Why? The excitement?
The sex?
855
00:38:30,312 --> 00:38:34,647
It wasn't the sex.
I guess it was exciting.
856
00:38:35,585 --> 00:38:39,384
And I guess a man
paying $500 or $1,000
857
00:38:39,454 --> 00:38:42,082
to be with me
made me feel desirable.
858
00:38:43,592 --> 00:38:45,116
I enjoyed that.
859
00:38:53,802 --> 00:38:55,963
So all of a sudden
you found it frightening
860
00:38:56,037 --> 00:38:58,129
to have your head in
a strange man's lap.
861
00:38:58,205 --> 00:39:00,002
Is that your testimony?
Objection.
862
00:39:00,174 --> 00:39:01,198
Sustained.
863
00:39:01,275 --> 00:39:02,435
I'll re-phrase.
864
00:39:03,878 --> 00:39:07,643
How many strangers have paid
you to have sex with them?
865
00:39:09,617 --> 00:39:11,710
Answer the question,
Mrs. Colson.
866
00:39:12,987 --> 00:39:15,478
Seventy, 80 men.
867
00:39:15,556 --> 00:39:19,651
And yet the thought of having
sex with one more strange man
868
00:39:19,726 --> 00:39:22,320
was so repulsive that
you had to kill him?
869
00:39:22,429 --> 00:39:25,331
I was panicked.
He was raping me.
870
00:39:25,399 --> 00:39:28,299
Didn't you carry a can of
pepper spray in your purse?
871
00:39:28,368 --> 00:39:29,699
A lot of women carry it.
872
00:39:29,769 --> 00:39:32,135
Why didn't you use it
instead of Mr. Keene's gun?
873
00:39:32,205 --> 00:39:35,230
He had me by the hair,
Mr. McCoy.
874
00:39:35,340 --> 00:39:37,171
The pepper spray
was in my purse.
875
00:39:37,242 --> 00:39:41,235
You're a professional sex provider.
You're experienced.
876
00:39:41,313 --> 00:39:45,113
This was a routine sex act,
877
00:39:45,184 --> 00:39:47,243
and yet you expect us
to believe
878
00:39:47,319 --> 00:39:51,050
that it was so terrifying that you
had to use lethal force to stop it?
879
00:39:51,123 --> 00:39:54,251
You can believe
whatever you want.
880
00:39:54,326 --> 00:39:55,849
I know what he did to me.
881
00:39:55,927 --> 00:39:59,591
He threatened to take away
your nice home in Mount Kisco,
882
00:39:59,665 --> 00:40:02,725
your nice family,
your comfortable lifestyle.
883
00:40:02,801 --> 00:40:03,961
That's what terrified you, wasn't it?
884
00:40:04,036 --> 00:40:05,093
No!
885
00:40:05,169 --> 00:40:08,400
You love your kids,
you love your suburban life.
886
00:40:08,473 --> 00:40:10,464
You would kill to
protect all that.
887
00:40:10,541 --> 00:40:11,906
That's why
you killed Gilbert Keene!
888
00:40:11,976 --> 00:40:14,637
Objection. Damn it!
He's testifying!
889
00:40:14,711 --> 00:40:18,148
Withdrawn.
I have no more questions.
890
00:40:25,822 --> 00:40:27,346
It's not often that Big Brother
891
00:40:27,424 --> 00:40:29,585
has to listen to your opinion.
892
00:40:32,295 --> 00:40:34,160
It happens every four years.
893
00:40:35,632 --> 00:40:40,126
And it happens when you have the
privilege of sitting in this box.
894
00:40:41,037 --> 00:40:45,234
Hillary Colson
shopped at GapKids,
895
00:40:45,307 --> 00:40:47,207
she goes to PTA meetings,
896
00:40:48,210 --> 00:40:50,178
she's also a prostitute.
897
00:40:50,780 --> 00:40:54,715
I don't like it any more than you do.
It disgusts me.
898
00:40:55,284 --> 00:40:59,084
I don't approve
of serial adultery.
899
00:41:02,791 --> 00:41:06,590
She's endangered the lives of
every member of her family
900
00:41:06,661 --> 00:41:09,654
in a pathetic search for what?
901
00:41:11,166 --> 00:41:12,690
Novelty?
902
00:41:13,468 --> 00:41:15,732
To fill a void
in her life, maybe?
903
00:41:15,803 --> 00:41:17,828
I don't know,
but I do know this.
904
00:41:17,906 --> 00:41:21,364
If this were a referendum
on prostitution,
905
00:41:21,442 --> 00:41:25,902
I would say, "Throw her in jail
and forget about the key."
906
00:41:27,649 --> 00:41:29,378
But it's not.
907
00:41:31,786 --> 00:41:33,912
That's not why she's on trial.
908
00:41:35,022 --> 00:41:41,325
She is on trial because she
said no to an ex-police officer
909
00:41:41,395 --> 00:41:45,957
armed with a Colt revolver
and the will to use it.
910
00:41:46,833 --> 00:41:48,926
An ex-police officer.
911
00:41:49,736 --> 00:41:51,033
Hmm.
912
00:41:52,805 --> 00:41:58,402
A bully who used sex
to dominate women.
913
00:41:59,212 --> 00:42:02,874
She said no and she meant it.
914
00:42:05,484 --> 00:42:09,011
The Bill of Rights
does not only apply
915
00:42:09,088 --> 00:42:11,681
to the June Cleavers
of this country.
916
00:42:12,691 --> 00:42:18,187
Acquit my client and you say
to Big Brother that any woman,
917
00:42:18,631 --> 00:42:20,724
regardless of her character,
918
00:42:20,800 --> 00:42:22,960
has got the right to say no
919
00:42:23,868 --> 00:42:26,666
and has got the right
to back it up!
920
00:42:27,439 --> 00:42:32,273
I'm not asking you to
agree with prostitution.
921
00:42:32,744 --> 00:42:35,645
But I am begging you
922
00:42:37,482 --> 00:42:43,215
to disagree with rape.
923
00:42:45,022 --> 00:42:50,551
Ms. Stieglitz is right, this isn't
a referendum on prostitution.
924
00:42:50,628 --> 00:42:53,358
It isn't a referendum on rape.
925
00:42:54,231 --> 00:42:55,562
You're here to render a verdict
926
00:42:55,633 --> 00:42:57,965
on her client's credibility.
927
00:43:01,971 --> 00:43:03,871
She says she was raped.
928
00:43:05,008 --> 00:43:06,771
What's her evidence?
929
00:43:07,144 --> 00:43:13,378
"Keene was a bully.
My husband believes me, so should you."
930
00:43:16,352 --> 00:43:19,878
In the meantime,
she suffered no injuries,
931
00:43:20,022 --> 00:43:24,460
she destroyed evidence,
she lied to the police.
932
00:43:24,827 --> 00:43:28,263
It was only when she was backed
into a corner that she cried rape.
933
00:43:28,331 --> 00:43:29,820
That she wrapped herself
934
00:43:29,898 --> 00:43:32,264
in the right of
self-defense,
935
00:43:32,668 --> 00:43:35,933
but she wasn't
defending her virtue.
936
00:43:36,471 --> 00:43:38,905
She didn't shoot Gilbert Keene
937
00:43:38,974 --> 00:43:40,702
to keep from performing an act
938
00:43:40,775 --> 00:43:44,337
that she had willingly performed
on dozens of other men.
939
00:43:45,113 --> 00:43:48,742
She killed him
to protect a secret.
940
00:43:48,983 --> 00:43:52,919
You've all seen what lengths she
went to to avoid Mac Bernum,
941
00:43:52,987 --> 00:43:54,648
to hide her identity.
942
00:43:55,723 --> 00:43:57,122
Who can blame her?
943
00:43:58,126 --> 00:44:00,958
She didn't want to
lose her husband,
944
00:44:01,028 --> 00:44:03,997
her family,
her comfortable home.
945
00:44:06,400 --> 00:44:08,731
Those things
she would kill for.
946
00:44:09,269 --> 00:44:13,672
But those things do not
justify the taking of a life.
947
00:44:16,811 --> 00:44:21,247
The threat of deadly physical
force does, or rape does,
948
00:44:21,681 --> 00:44:24,946
or kidnapping or robbery.
949
00:44:25,218 --> 00:44:27,652
But none of those things
happened in that car.
950
00:44:27,721 --> 00:44:33,057
What happened in that car was
a cold and calculated thing.
951
00:44:33,326 --> 00:44:38,854
A woman killed her
blackmailer, not her rapist.
952
00:44:41,467 --> 00:44:44,265
That's who Gilbert Keene was,
that's how he got sex.
953
00:44:44,336 --> 00:44:48,101
He didn't rape those other women.
He blackmailed them.
954
00:44:49,441 --> 00:44:51,136
I don't want you to convict her
955
00:44:51,210 --> 00:44:53,178
because she's a prostitute.
956
00:44:54,980 --> 00:44:57,039
I'm asking you to convict her
957
00:44:57,115 --> 00:44:59,913
because her story is a lie.
958
00:45:19,870 --> 00:45:22,771
Mr. Foreman, has the
jury reached a verdict?
959
00:45:22,839 --> 00:45:24,705
Yes, Your Honor, we have.
960
00:45:24,776 --> 00:45:27,471
Will the defendant please rise.
961
00:45:29,279 --> 00:45:30,940
On the sole count
of the indictment,
962
00:45:31,014 --> 00:45:32,743
murder in the second degree,
963
00:45:32,816 --> 00:45:34,545
how do you find?
964
00:45:34,618 --> 00:45:37,882
We find the defendant,
Hillary Colson, guilty.
965
00:45:54,470 --> 00:45:56,528
Lanie Stieglitz
filed her appeal.
966
00:45:56,604 --> 00:45:59,597
She's hoping they'll erect
a statue for her on 12th Avenue.
967
00:45:59,675 --> 00:46:02,075
Even prostitutes
deserve a patron saint.
968
00:46:02,144 --> 00:46:04,442
Makes me wonder if they convicted
her because we made our case
969
00:46:04,513 --> 00:46:05,911
or because she's a prostitute.
970
00:46:05,980 --> 00:46:08,574
They convicted her.
I don't care why.
