00:14:59,289 --> 00:15:02,813
two guys who claimed to be
at the bar from 3:00 to 6:00,
351
00:15:02,814 --> 00:15:06,817
and everybody says that Costa
was at the bar the entire time,
352
00:15:06,818 --> 00:15:09,037
and they said he quit smoking,
353
00:15:09,038 --> 00:15:10,734
and they were adamant
about that.
354
00:15:10,735 --> 00:15:12,562
- Yeah, those guys
would say he played shortstop
355
00:15:12,563 --> 00:15:14,129
for the Yankees
if he asked them to.
356
00:15:14,130 --> 00:15:15,826
- Mm-hmm.
- Costa is no joke.
357
00:15:15,827 --> 00:15:17,263
I pulled his sheet.
358
00:15:17,264 --> 00:15:19,047
He's got priors for
racketeering, gambling,
359
00:15:19,048 --> 00:15:20,744
assault, and narcotics.
360
00:15:20,745 --> 00:15:22,659
- Oh, busy boy, huh?
- Yeah.
361
00:15:22,660 --> 00:15:24,748
And as suspected, he's a liar.
362
00:15:24,749 --> 00:15:27,490
I found video of him
two blocks from the crime scene
363
00:15:27,491 --> 00:15:30,058
three minutes after
the 911 call at 4:43.
364
00:15:30,059 --> 00:15:32,626
So Costa was not
inside the bar all day,
365
00:15:32,627 --> 00:15:34,889
no matter what his friends say.
- I like him for it.
366
00:15:34,890 --> 00:15:36,586
- Yeah, we just gotta find
a way to put him
367
00:15:36,587 --> 00:15:38,501
and Walsh together
prior to the murder.
368
00:15:38,502 --> 00:15:40,851
- Mm-hmm.
- Can you pull more video?
369
00:15:40,852 --> 00:15:44,029
- It's pretty thin down there.
Not a lot of cameras.
370
00:15:44,030 --> 00:15:45,813
- All right, well, just--
I don't know--

I mean, you never know.

code of silence thing is real.

These guys are not gonna budge.
374

It's how they define
themselves, you know?
375
00:15:55,128 --> 00:15:57,999
- Maybe we come at this
from a different angle.
376
00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:00,915
Maybe we try to get Costa
to talk instead.

I'm making an omelet.

You know, avocado, sausage,
peppers, all that.
381

Doorbell rings,
and I'm thinking it's Amazon,

or maybe it's the lady
next door with the dementia,

- For God's sake, Matty.

I get a little rattled.

I go to the door,

with me?

questions about you.

To find out if what?
If I was involved?

what happened, you know?

Problem is, the defense
is picking us apart,

something new,

killed Walsh.

And trust me, Costa's friends,
they're not cooperating.

These guys eat, drink,

to have a shred of humanity

kills an innocent man,
