1
00:00:01,597 --> 00:00:03,622
In the criminal
justice system
2
00:00:03,699 --> 00:00:07,499
the people are represented by two
separate yet equally important groups:
3
00:00:07,569 --> 00:00:09,400
The police
who investigate crime,
4
00:00:09,471 --> 00:00:12,235
and the district attorneys
who prosecute the offenders.
5
00:00:12,307 --> 00:00:14,036
These are their stories.
6
00:00:14,643 --> 00:00:16,838
Those ticket agents.
A $4.50 service charge
7
00:00:16,912 --> 00:00:18,640
and they stick us
way in the back.
8
00:00:18,713 --> 00:00:21,181
Well, at least
the music was wonderful.
9
00:00:21,249 --> 00:00:23,046
I thought the strings
were a bit shrill.
10
00:00:24,185 --> 00:00:25,982
And the adagio?
11
00:00:31,926 --> 00:00:33,757
Hmm. That tuna fish
I threw out,
12
00:00:33,828 --> 00:00:35,989
would you... would you
put it out into the hall?
13
00:00:36,063 --> 00:00:37,052
Mmm-hmm.
14
00:00:40,001 --> 00:00:40,990
And open a window
15
00:00:41,068 --> 00:00:42,865
so that we both
don't die of the stench.
16
00:00:42,937 --> 00:00:46,532
Hello, Doris. Why wouldn't
I know who it was?
17
00:00:47,341 --> 00:00:50,503
I can't go to the corner store
without you calling.
18
00:00:50,610 --> 00:00:52,578
Lincoln Center. Mozart.
19
00:00:53,346 --> 00:00:55,541
Frankly, Masur was
not in very good shape,
20
00:00:55,615 --> 00:00:57,242
arriving when he did.
21
00:00:57,317 --> 00:00:58,784
I was very disappointed.
22
00:00:58,852 --> 00:01:00,649
However, I'd love to meet...
23
00:01:01,922 --> 00:01:03,082
Lisa.
Mmm-hmm.
24
00:01:03,156 --> 00:01:05,090
Is your aunt still up?
Mmm-hmm.
25
00:01:05,158 --> 00:01:07,422
She forgot to sign
her rent check again.
26
00:01:07,627 --> 00:01:09,288
I'll take it in to her.
27
00:01:15,001 --> 00:01:16,229
Except I thought
28
00:01:16,303 --> 00:01:18,533
he was a little off
every once in a while.
29
00:01:22,841 --> 00:01:24,138
Looks like she caught it
30
00:01:24,210 --> 00:01:25,472
heading for the side entrance.
31
00:01:25,544 --> 00:01:27,239
Something wrong
with the front door?
32
00:01:27,313 --> 00:01:28,575
Courtyard's all the way around.
33
00:01:28,647 --> 00:01:30,080
Neighbors say
it's safer this way.
34
00:01:30,149 --> 00:01:31,514
Most nights.
35
00:01:33,953 --> 00:01:37,081
Kathleen Susan McKenna.
$30 and change.
36
00:01:37,156 --> 00:01:39,283
University student ID.
37
00:01:39,358 --> 00:01:41,155
She can forget
about her midterms.
38
00:01:41,227 --> 00:01:42,717
Found a scarf
just down the alley.
39
00:01:42,795 --> 00:01:45,229
Ligature marks are consistent
with the neck wound.
40
00:01:45,297 --> 00:01:48,232
You check this wall?
Blood. Tissue.
41
00:01:48,300 --> 00:01:49,858
I have a feeling
it's the victim's.
42
00:01:49,935 --> 00:01:51,300
Got it.
Witnesses over there.
43
00:01:51,370 --> 00:01:52,631
Thanks.
44
00:01:56,541 --> 00:01:58,736
I'm Det. Logan,
this is Det. Briscoe.
45
00:01:58,810 --> 00:02:00,277
You ladies saw something?
46
00:02:00,345 --> 00:02:01,937
If you're expecting
a description,
47
00:02:02,013 --> 00:02:03,037
you can forget it.
48
00:02:03,114 --> 00:02:05,412
With my cataracts,
I can barely see you.
49
00:02:05,483 --> 00:02:06,609
Was it some transient?
50
00:02:06,718 --> 00:02:08,879
Kathleen McKenna.
Know her?
51
00:02:09,053 --> 00:02:11,487
Kathy? Oh, no.
52
00:02:12,223 --> 00:02:14,555
She lived on the third floor.
A lovely girl.
53
00:02:14,626 --> 00:02:16,560
Well, maybe
you remember something now?
54
00:02:16,628 --> 00:02:20,257
Well, I... I remember voices,
but, uh, disconnected.
55
00:02:20,331 --> 00:02:21,696
I couldn't tell who.
56
00:02:21,766 --> 00:02:24,495
When I opened the window
I saw a man and woman
57
00:02:24,568 --> 00:02:26,195
at the end
of the alley, signir.
58
00:02:26,270 --> 00:02:27,430
Signing?
59
00:02:27,504 --> 00:02:31,235
Oh, It must have been her.
Kathy McKenna was deaf.
60
00:03:56,257 --> 00:03:58,885
My late husband was blind.
Shrapnel in Korea.
61
00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:00,051
After he died,
62
00:04:00,127 --> 00:04:01,685
I decided to rent
to the handicapped.
63
00:04:01,762 --> 00:04:03,627
As a gesture, you know?
Mmm-hmm.
64
00:04:03,697 --> 00:04:06,632
And what kind of tenant
was Miss McKenna?
65
00:04:06,700 --> 00:04:08,133
She moved in about a year ago.
66
00:04:08,202 --> 00:04:09,567
Never a problem.
67
00:04:09,670 --> 00:04:11,729
Okay, Miss Chandler.
Uh, if we need you,
68
00:04:11,805 --> 00:04:14,137
we'll give you a call.
Thank you very much.
69
00:04:16,610 --> 00:04:19,010
Landlady's a wash.
She paid her rent.
70
00:04:19,580 --> 00:04:21,275
I'm surprised
she found the time.
71
00:04:22,850 --> 00:04:25,375
Wow! Popular girl, huh?
72
00:04:25,452 --> 00:04:27,386
Detective, we've got
a Ben Freed out here.
73
00:04:27,454 --> 00:04:28,682
He says he's the boyfriend.
74
00:04:28,756 --> 00:04:29,780
He's been told.
75
00:04:29,857 --> 00:04:31,380
Yeah. Send him in.
76
00:04:35,895 --> 00:04:37,123
This is all my fault.
77
00:04:37,196 --> 00:04:38,288
Take it easy.
78
00:04:38,364 --> 00:04:39,991
We were supposed
to go out last night.
79
00:04:40,066 --> 00:04:41,556
I should have been with her.
80
00:04:41,634 --> 00:04:43,693
Well, what happened?
Did she break the date?
81
00:04:44,070 --> 00:04:46,561
She had to see somebody.
She didn't say who.
82
00:04:46,973 --> 00:04:48,702
God, I told her
a thousand times.
83
00:04:48,775 --> 00:04:50,367
At night, take a cab.
84
00:04:50,443 --> 00:04:51,774
A thousand times.
85
00:04:51,844 --> 00:04:53,277
Sounds like
she was your steady.
86
00:04:53,413 --> 00:04:55,677
We'd been going out
a couple of months.
87
00:04:56,582 --> 00:04:58,209
All my friends
said the same thing.
88
00:04:58,284 --> 00:05:01,048
"She's deaf.
Don't rush into anything."
89
00:05:01,954 --> 00:05:04,888
But we loved each other.
We had plans.
90
00:05:04,956 --> 00:05:07,948
After she broke the date,
you make a new plan?
91
00:05:08,627 --> 00:05:10,026
The library.
92
00:05:10,762 --> 00:05:13,959
L... I was studying
for exams until closing.
93
00:05:15,500 --> 00:05:16,489
God.
94
00:05:17,135 --> 00:05:18,932
No jewelry taken, no money.
95
00:05:19,004 --> 00:05:21,438
Forensics checking out
blood and tissue samples.
96
00:05:21,506 --> 00:05:22,768
But I wouldn't hold my breath.
97
00:05:22,841 --> 00:05:24,331
Your basic crime of passion.
98
00:05:24,409 --> 00:05:26,138
Person or persons unknown.
99
00:05:26,344 --> 00:05:27,709
Probably singular.
100
00:05:27,779 --> 00:05:29,974
We got a witness says
she saw a man and a woman
101
00:05:30,048 --> 00:05:32,243
signing near the alley
right before it went down.
102
00:05:32,317 --> 00:05:34,217
Well, what about
the boyfriend, he sign?
103
00:05:34,286 --> 00:05:35,582
He said he was just learning.
104
00:05:35,653 --> 00:05:37,553
Calls it one of
the world's great romances.
105
00:05:37,621 --> 00:05:39,612
Well, he bought that
she was seeing a friend,
106
00:05:39,690 --> 00:05:40,679
so maybe it was.
107
00:05:40,758 --> 00:05:42,487
After just two months?
108
00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:44,460
Nobody is that secure.
You call the library?
109
00:05:44,528 --> 00:05:47,053
Yeah, last night.
Freed checked out
110
00:05:47,765 --> 00:05:50,700
Henry Miller's
Tropic of Cancer and Nexus.
111
00:05:50,801 --> 00:05:52,564
The lonely guy's reading list.
112
00:05:52,636 --> 00:05:55,469
Fellows, there's
a Mr. And Mrs. McKenna here.
113
00:05:57,141 --> 00:05:59,371
That's Kathy's cousin, Eugene.
114
00:05:59,677 --> 00:06:00,735
I took that
115
00:06:00,811 --> 00:06:03,405
while he was visiting
from Tacoma last summer.
116
00:06:07,517 --> 00:06:09,280
This is Ben Freed.
117
00:06:09,352 --> 00:06:10,819
Kathy was seeing him.
118
00:06:11,654 --> 00:06:13,849
She talked about him
all the time.
119
00:06:16,292 --> 00:06:19,750
That one.
That's Paul Crandall.
120
00:06:20,230 --> 00:06:21,663
He's deaf, too.
121
00:06:23,032 --> 00:06:25,193
Kathy and Paul used to see
a lot of each other
122
00:06:25,268 --> 00:06:27,327
when she first
moved to the city.
123
00:06:28,004 --> 00:06:30,234
But they werert that serious.
124
00:06:31,441 --> 00:06:33,909
Most of these,
I'm sure they're just pals.
125
00:06:35,845 --> 00:06:37,972
If somebody
was giving her trouble,
126
00:06:38,046 --> 00:06:39,513
would she have told you?
127
00:06:40,749 --> 00:06:42,216
I'd hope so.
128
00:06:42,851 --> 00:06:44,910
Kathy was independent.
129
00:06:46,021 --> 00:06:48,080
We brought her up that way.
130
00:06:48,690 --> 00:06:51,887
She even talked about
getting a cochlear implant.
131
00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:54,594
She was told she
was a good candidate for it.
132
00:06:54,696 --> 00:06:57,324
It's a device
inserted behind the ear.
133
00:06:58,166 --> 00:07:00,396
If it worked, it would have
134
00:07:00,836 --> 00:07:04,397
allowed her to hear sound,
vibrations.
135
00:07:06,575 --> 00:07:08,270
We took her to specialists.
136
00:07:08,343 --> 00:07:09,640
"Put her in a deaf school."
137
00:07:09,710 --> 00:07:11,473
"Don't put her
in a deaf school."
138
00:07:12,847 --> 00:07:15,111
We just wanted her to be happy.
139
00:07:19,587 --> 00:07:21,919
If you want to identify
these other photos,
140
00:07:22,690 --> 00:07:25,056
you should
talk to Corrine Sussman.
141
00:07:27,094 --> 00:07:29,460
Kathy used to
room with her at university.
142
00:07:36,103 --> 00:07:37,297
Sure, Kathy had boyfriends.
143
00:07:37,371 --> 00:07:38,895
The problem
was with her hearing,
144
00:07:38,973 --> 00:07:40,406
not the rest of her.
145
00:07:40,474 --> 00:07:42,031
Well, uh,
last time you noticed,
146
00:07:42,108 --> 00:07:43,803
uh, who was leading the pack?
147
00:07:44,611 --> 00:07:48,274
Ben. Those two
were positively chemical.
148
00:07:48,615 --> 00:07:50,242
As in combustible?
149
00:07:50,483 --> 00:07:52,110
They'd argue.
Who doesn't?
150
00:07:52,252 --> 00:07:53,913
Kathy had a mind of her own.
151
00:07:55,155 --> 00:07:56,747
God, it's so sad.
152
00:07:56,823 --> 00:07:59,417
I can't believe I'm already
referring to her in the past tense.
153
00:07:59,492 --> 00:08:00,891
What about Paul Crandall?
154
00:08:00,961 --> 00:08:02,326
How past tense was he?
155
00:08:02,395 --> 00:08:04,693
Oh, Paul was the kind
of guy you go out with once
156
00:08:04,764 --> 00:08:06,129
because you feel sorry for him
157
00:08:06,199 --> 00:08:08,030
and then it's "how do
you get rid of him?"
158
00:08:08,101 --> 00:08:09,500
He wanted her
strictly to himself.
159
00:08:09,569 --> 00:08:11,469
I remember once
they were going to a lecture
160
00:08:11,538 --> 00:08:13,334
and Kathy asked
if I wanted to come along.
161
00:08:13,405 --> 00:08:15,600
Paul freaked.
He said it was for the deaf.
162
00:08:15,674 --> 00:08:17,005
Like I'd contaminate the place.
163
00:08:17,076 --> 00:08:18,407
Kathy let him have it.
164
00:08:18,477 --> 00:08:20,843
So Kathy was
more open-minded?
165
00:08:22,348 --> 00:08:24,373
You know that
Audrey Hepburn film, Sabrina?
166
00:08:24,450 --> 00:08:26,441
It was Kathy's favorite.
167
00:08:26,518 --> 00:08:29,009
She wanted to be just like
the character in the movie.
168
00:08:29,088 --> 00:08:31,113
"In the world
and of the world."
169
00:08:31,190 --> 00:08:34,023
What about when Paul and her
werert attending lectures?
170
00:08:34,126 --> 00:08:35,525
You mean,
did she sleep with him?
171
00:08:35,594 --> 00:08:36,925
In Paul's dreams, maybe.
172
00:08:36,996 --> 00:08:41,023
No, Paul was a relic from
Kathy's days at the institute.
173
00:08:41,100 --> 00:08:42,590
The institute?
174
00:08:42,668 --> 00:08:44,295
The Bryce Institute
for the Deaf.
175
00:08:44,370 --> 00:08:45,700
It's where they met.
176
00:08:49,207 --> 00:08:51,835
I'm sorry.
I have a midterm, okay?
177
00:08:57,181 --> 00:08:59,706
Any luck
with that address, Miss...
178
00:09:03,054 --> 00:09:05,955
Any luck with that address,
Miss Hendricks?
179
00:09:06,724 --> 00:09:09,215
I don't have Paul's address.
180
00:09:09,427 --> 00:09:11,418
He moves around a lot.
181
00:09:11,963 --> 00:09:14,898
But I know
he works at the garage
182
00:09:15,133 --> 00:09:17,623
on West Street at 25th.
183
00:09:18,669 --> 00:09:21,194
Dr. Bryce got him the job.
184
00:09:25,842 --> 00:09:27,605
I'm sorry, Dr. Bryce.
185
00:09:27,844 --> 00:09:32,042
These detectives are here
about Kathy McKenna.
186
00:09:32,349 --> 00:09:34,283
Hello, Doctor.
Have you got a minute?
187
00:09:34,651 --> 00:09:36,881
Of course.
Just come in here.
188
00:09:40,657 --> 00:09:43,387
I heard about
Kathy this morning.
189
00:09:44,361 --> 00:09:46,056
It's tragic. I, uh...
190
00:09:46,997 --> 00:09:48,827
Especially under
the circumstances.
191
00:09:48,898 --> 00:09:50,695
What circumstances?
192
00:09:50,766 --> 00:09:51,926
Well, last night,
193
00:09:52,001 --> 00:09:53,628
I was with Jacob
and Sonya Brinkman.
194
00:09:53,703 --> 00:09:55,694
They pledged
the money to expand
195
00:09:55,771 --> 00:09:58,331
a program we have
for deaf preschoolers.
196
00:09:58,441 --> 00:10:01,535
The idea of the program
originally was Kathy's
197
00:10:01,610 --> 00:10:03,441
so I was going to put her
in charge of it
198
00:10:03,512 --> 00:10:05,639
after her graduation in June.
199
00:10:05,715 --> 00:10:08,013
Well, I started to call
her from the Brinkmans'
200
00:10:08,084 --> 00:10:09,779
to give her the good news
201
00:10:09,852 --> 00:10:11,945
but it was almost midnight.
202
00:10:12,154 --> 00:10:14,486
Did you know anything
about her personal life?
203
00:10:14,557 --> 00:10:16,718
Like who she was involved with?
204
00:10:17,126 --> 00:10:19,094
I'd met some of the men
she'd dated.
205
00:10:19,195 --> 00:10:20,525
Like Ben Freed?
206
00:10:20,595 --> 00:10:22,722
Right, the... the
hearing man, yes.
207
00:10:23,231 --> 00:10:25,597
Well, those relationships
are always difficult.
208
00:10:25,700 --> 00:10:27,361
Paul Crandall more her type?
209
00:10:27,435 --> 00:10:29,562
Oh, no, no. Not Paul.
210
00:10:29,637 --> 00:10:31,502
You don't suspect Paul, do you?
211
00:10:31,740 --> 00:10:34,231
We're talking to everybody
she knew.
212
00:10:34,309 --> 00:10:37,369
Paul's a very sweet boy,
but he's very shy.
213
00:10:37,445 --> 00:10:40,903
I don't think he's had
much experience with women.
214
00:10:40,982 --> 00:10:43,348
How much do you need
to kill one?
215
00:10:44,586 --> 00:10:46,554
Paul's one weird kid.
216
00:10:47,322 --> 00:10:49,222
One hell of a mechanic.
217
00:10:49,791 --> 00:10:51,588
That deaf school
teaches them real good.
218
00:10:51,659 --> 00:10:52,647
I tell you.
219
00:10:52,726 --> 00:10:54,489
Did you ever see him
with a girl?
220
00:10:54,561 --> 00:10:56,756
She was deaf. Blonde.
221
00:10:57,498 --> 00:10:59,830
Yeah. Yeah. They were in here
a couple of weeks ago.
222
00:10:59,900 --> 00:11:01,595
Got him pretty upset, too.
223
00:11:01,668 --> 00:11:02,692
Kicked his toolbox
224
00:11:02,770 --> 00:11:04,704
halfway across
the garage after she left.
225
00:11:04,772 --> 00:11:06,899
Maybe they patched things up.
226
00:11:06,974 --> 00:11:07,963
Come on, man.
227
00:11:08,041 --> 00:11:09,975
One of these guys
got a babe waiting outside
228
00:11:10,043 --> 00:11:11,203
they're out of here
229
00:11:11,278 --> 00:11:13,178
by the time
that clock strikes 5:00.
230
00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:15,578
Paul was pulling
12, 15-hour shifts
231
00:11:15,649 --> 00:11:17,116
and begging for more.
232
00:11:18,051 --> 00:11:19,746
Which one of these was his?
233
00:11:20,521 --> 00:11:22,421
See that Ford up on the perch?
234
00:11:23,056 --> 00:11:24,647
He's supposed to be under it.
235
00:11:24,957 --> 00:11:27,118
Is there any chance
he took a break?
236
00:11:27,193 --> 00:11:30,219
No, he got a call about
a half hour ago on his beeper.
237
00:11:30,797 --> 00:11:32,458
A deaf person with a beeper?
238
00:11:32,532 --> 00:11:33,556
Yeah, you know,
239
00:11:33,633 --> 00:11:35,897
the kind that vibrates
inside your pocket.
240
00:11:36,302 --> 00:11:38,293
He hasn't been back since.
241
00:11:43,910 --> 00:11:45,172
Push the button.
242
00:11:45,244 --> 00:11:47,474
It makes a light flash inside.
243
00:11:52,618 --> 00:11:54,586
You know, Mike,
I got this refrigerator.
244
00:11:54,654 --> 00:11:55,915
The light keeps going out.
245
00:11:55,987 --> 00:11:57,011
For the life of me,
246
00:11:57,088 --> 00:11:58,715
I can't get
the landlord to fix it.
247
00:11:58,790 --> 00:12:00,849
I get it. I get it.
248
00:12:13,805 --> 00:12:15,466
Today's newspaper.
249
00:12:15,640 --> 00:12:17,972
I guess he wanted
to make the morning edition.
250
00:12:18,410 --> 00:12:19,468
Lennie.
251
00:12:19,544 --> 00:12:20,568
Hm?
252
00:12:21,513 --> 00:12:24,346
Wow. Everything
but her baby pictures.
253
00:12:26,184 --> 00:12:29,016
"Stop cochlear implants
at NYU."
254
00:12:30,688 --> 00:12:31,677
Cochlear implants.
255
00:12:31,755 --> 00:12:34,553
Wasrt that the operation Kathy's
parents were talking about?
256
00:12:34,625 --> 00:12:37,321
Yeah. We got into
a discussion about that once.
257
00:12:37,394 --> 00:12:39,828
I said it sounded
like a good idea.
258
00:12:39,897 --> 00:12:42,661
He said it was like
turning a black person white.
259
00:12:42,733 --> 00:12:44,166
That make sense to you?
260
00:12:44,235 --> 00:12:46,260
Ah, I guess it does
to these guys.
261
00:12:46,337 --> 00:12:48,430
L.O.U.D., 36 Greene Street.
262
00:12:48,539 --> 00:12:51,099
Richard Fiorello,
executive director.
263
00:12:55,145 --> 00:12:58,580
Doctors play Frankenstein
264
00:12:59,415 --> 00:13:01,076
with people's auditory nerves,
265
00:13:01,150 --> 00:13:02,549
and that's okay.
266
00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:06,218
But if some girl gets mugged,
267
00:13:06,823 --> 00:13:08,313
it's
"blame the deaf."
268
00:13:09,125 --> 00:13:11,025
Kathy McKenna was deaf.
269
00:13:14,297 --> 00:13:17,926
Kathy? You want to feel
sorry for Kathy?
270
00:13:18,968 --> 00:13:21,732
Feel sorry that
someone convinced Kathy
271
00:13:21,804 --> 00:13:24,864
that being deaf was
something to be ashamed of.
272
00:13:25,608 --> 00:13:29,408
Ask him if Paul got as
worked up as him about this.
273
00:13:35,284 --> 00:13:38,742
After Kathy broke up
with Paul for a hearing man,
274
00:13:39,488 --> 00:13:41,115
Paul couldn't think straight.
275
00:13:41,490 --> 00:13:43,287
So you told him what to think?
276
00:13:43,358 --> 00:13:44,518
Like last night?
277
00:13:45,494 --> 00:13:47,394
I didn't see Paul last night.
278
00:13:47,462 --> 00:13:50,022
Oh, come on,
he's that sort of a guy.
279
00:13:50,098 --> 00:13:51,622
Paul gets in some kind
of trouble,
280
00:13:51,700 --> 00:13:52,997
he comes to you.
281
00:13:59,975 --> 00:14:01,909
Get out or I'll get our lawyer.
282
00:14:01,976 --> 00:14:03,238
All right, get his attention.
283
00:14:07,982 --> 00:14:11,076
Sometimes people hide
for the wrong reasons
284
00:14:11,152 --> 00:14:13,746
and they create
the wrong impression.
285
00:14:13,821 --> 00:14:15,288
That's why it's better
286
00:14:15,356 --> 00:14:17,324
to just come out
and clear the air.
287
00:14:17,792 --> 00:14:19,623
Before the real trouble begins.
288
00:14:27,401 --> 00:14:29,733
They're watchir us
from the window.
289
00:14:29,804 --> 00:14:31,169
Give it a minute.
290
00:14:31,272 --> 00:14:34,206
I think he's in there.
Lot of attitude, huh?
291
00:14:34,274 --> 00:14:36,504
Hey, you know where
they're coming from.
292
00:14:36,576 --> 00:14:38,168
It's a whole different world.
293
00:14:38,278 --> 00:14:41,111
Yeah. Well, these guys
turned it into a cult.
294
00:14:41,181 --> 00:14:42,341
Kathy wanted out,
295
00:14:42,415 --> 00:14:44,007
Crandall wasrt
about to let her.
296
00:14:44,217 --> 00:14:45,275
Hey!
297
00:14:46,453 --> 00:14:47,681
Hey, watch it.
298
00:14:50,056 --> 00:14:52,388
Paul wants to know,
is he under arrest?
299
00:14:52,459 --> 00:14:53,790
Just some questions.
300
00:14:55,328 --> 00:14:58,923
If he's got the answers,
it'll be very simple.
301
00:15:00,367 --> 00:15:02,699
I think the kid's been busted.
302
00:15:06,839 --> 00:15:09,137
Hey, I want to believe you,
Paul, I really do.
303
00:15:09,208 --> 00:15:11,699
But unless you can give
us some answers,
304
00:15:11,777 --> 00:15:13,301
I have to assume the worst.
305
00:15:13,379 --> 00:15:15,939
Or maybe he's just shy.
306
00:15:18,917 --> 00:15:21,249
Or maybe he doesn't like
the questions.
307
00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:24,553
Like where was he
last night around 11:00?
308
00:15:27,659 --> 00:15:29,854
I worked at the garage
until 6:00.
309
00:15:29,928 --> 00:15:31,896
I took the bus to Richard's.
310
00:15:31,964 --> 00:15:33,693
We played cards until midnight.
311
00:15:33,999 --> 00:15:35,591
Two-handed poker?
312
00:15:36,835 --> 00:15:38,529
Gina played, too.
313
00:15:39,570 --> 00:15:41,299
You didn't see Kathy?
314
00:15:44,542 --> 00:15:45,839
Fellows.
315
00:15:48,813 --> 00:15:51,509
Fiorello's girlfriend
called Dr. Bryce.
316
00:15:51,716 --> 00:15:54,276
Does Paul need an attorney?
I can get one down here.
317
00:15:54,385 --> 00:15:56,285
He's not under arrest.
318
00:15:56,554 --> 00:15:59,022
Then I want to be in there.
He trusts me.
319
00:16:01,692 --> 00:16:02,954
Go ahead.
320
00:16:05,463 --> 00:16:06,555
Kathy and I
321
00:16:06,631 --> 00:16:09,428
were in the same speech-therapy
class at the institute.
322
00:16:10,067 --> 00:16:12,001
The other students
laughed at me.
323
00:16:12,069 --> 00:16:13,400
I was a charity case.
324
00:16:13,470 --> 00:16:14,869
L... I got Paul a scholarship.
325
00:16:14,938 --> 00:16:16,405
You know how kids can be.
326
00:16:17,641 --> 00:16:20,371
Kathy never laughed.
We had a bond.
327
00:16:20,710 --> 00:16:22,644
You bond with her lately?
328
00:16:24,314 --> 00:16:26,145
I haven't seen Kathy in weeks.
329
00:16:26,216 --> 00:16:28,309
So why the disappearing act?
330
00:16:29,119 --> 00:16:31,087
I read about Kathy
in the newspapers
331
00:16:31,154 --> 00:16:34,123
and then, uh, Miss Hendricks
telephoned me at the garage
332
00:16:34,191 --> 00:16:35,783
to tell me
you were looking for me.
333
00:16:35,859 --> 00:16:37,224
And I got scared.
334
00:16:37,294 --> 00:16:38,488
How did you feel
335
00:16:38,562 --> 00:16:40,427
when Kathy started
dating Ben Freed, Paul?
336
00:16:40,497 --> 00:16:43,522
I mean, she drops you for a
hearing guy. That must have hurt.
337
00:16:43,599 --> 00:16:45,863
That's ridiculous.
Paul's deaf.
338
00:16:45,935 --> 00:16:47,527
Stop treating him
like a psychopath.
339
00:16:47,603 --> 00:16:49,434
I'm asking him the question.
340
00:16:51,774 --> 00:16:53,264
I accepted it.
341
00:16:53,409 --> 00:16:55,172
I knew that
she'd be coming back.
342
00:16:55,244 --> 00:16:59,112
Paul, she was getting
a cochlear implant.
343
00:16:59,882 --> 00:17:02,248
She was getting
her hearing back.
344
00:17:02,651 --> 00:17:05,347
You and your deaf buddies
were history.
345
00:17:09,125 --> 00:17:10,717
You think
I'd kill her for that?
346
00:17:10,793 --> 00:17:12,783
Somebody did this to her, Paul.
347
00:17:12,861 --> 00:17:14,624
That's it.
I'm putting an end to this!
348
00:17:14,696 --> 00:17:17,688
No, I didn't kill Kathy.
I didn't kill!
349
00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:21,462
Forensics found no blood
or skin under her nails
350
00:17:21,536 --> 00:17:23,197
and the scarf
she was strangled with
351
00:17:23,271 --> 00:17:24,636
was from Doyal's.
352
00:17:24,706 --> 00:17:27,038
Oh, good. So we get his coat,
check for fibers.
353
00:17:27,108 --> 00:17:29,838
No. The guy wore
a leather coat from Goodwill.
354
00:17:29,911 --> 00:17:31,640
We checked it.
It was clean.
355
00:17:31,946 --> 00:17:33,777
Crandall's LUDs.
They just came in.
356
00:17:33,848 --> 00:17:34,940
Thanks, Tony.
357
00:17:35,884 --> 00:17:39,149
Uh-huh. This sound familiar?
555-8686?
358
00:17:39,521 --> 00:17:40,988
Kathy McKenna's number.
359
00:17:41,055 --> 00:17:43,387
This guy was calling her
any more often,
360
00:17:43,458 --> 00:17:44,822
he'd need a WATS line.
361
00:17:44,892 --> 00:17:48,157
6:05, 7:10, he was
calling her every night.
362
00:17:48,228 --> 00:17:50,628
Makes you wonder what she said
to him to shut him up.
363
00:17:50,697 --> 00:17:52,494
He was pretty quiet
the rest of the night.
364
00:17:52,566 --> 00:17:54,557
Just one call,
at 11:30 in the Village.
365
00:17:54,635 --> 00:17:56,728
Oh, let me guess.
Greene Street.
366
00:17:56,870 --> 00:17:59,430
Fiorello? The guy who flipped
you off with both hands?
367
00:17:59,506 --> 00:18:01,201
The same guy
Crandall was supposed to be
368
00:18:01,275 --> 00:18:03,004
playing cards with at 11:30.
369
00:18:03,644 --> 00:18:05,236
You know that phone
for the deaf
370
00:18:05,312 --> 00:18:07,280
that we got downstairs,
the one you type on?
371
00:18:07,347 --> 00:18:09,008
That spits out a printout,
doesn't it?
372
00:18:09,082 --> 00:18:11,050
Crandall had one
like that in his apartment,
373
00:18:11,118 --> 00:18:12,415
but I didn't see any printouts.
374
00:18:12,486 --> 00:18:14,647
And when he talked
with Kathy McKenna,
375
00:18:14,721 --> 00:18:16,585
you think it was
a one-sided conversation?
376
00:18:18,257 --> 00:18:21,624
Those geniuses from CSU
classified Kathy's TDD
377
00:18:21,694 --> 00:18:24,026
as a "telephone
answering machine."
378
00:18:24,630 --> 00:18:26,120
I don't even want to know
379
00:18:26,199 --> 00:18:28,360
what ended up
under "kitchen appliances."
380
00:18:30,736 --> 00:18:33,034
I don't get it.
In the last week,
381
00:18:33,105 --> 00:18:35,505
Crandall must have called
at least 20 times.
382
00:18:35,575 --> 00:18:38,544
Yeah. It's just our luck.
She was a neat freak.
383
00:18:40,146 --> 00:18:44,105
Ma'am, whers the last time
they picked up the garbage?
384
00:18:44,450 --> 00:18:46,384
Mr. Broda hasn't taken
the garbage bin out
385
00:18:46,452 --> 00:18:48,078
since last Friday.
386
00:18:51,756 --> 00:18:53,656
How many apartments
in this building?
387
00:18:53,725 --> 00:18:54,885
30.
388
00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:56,860
And they all have to eat eggs?
389
00:18:57,829 --> 00:18:59,194
How about this guy?
390
00:18:59,264 --> 00:19:01,494
It's all doughnuts
and stroke magazines.
391
00:19:01,566 --> 00:19:04,228
Yeah, well he's depressed,
stays home a lot.
392
00:19:05,403 --> 00:19:07,428
Damn. Hold it.
393
00:19:07,839 --> 00:19:09,306
Find something?
394
00:19:09,407 --> 00:19:13,241
Electric bill. "Kathleen...
Kathleen S. McKenna."
395
00:19:13,311 --> 00:19:14,744
Keep digging.
396
00:19:19,683 --> 00:19:21,048
Pay dirt.
397
00:19:22,820 --> 00:19:24,583
How you tell
who's who on these things?
398
00:19:24,655 --> 00:19:25,986
The caller's in caps.
399
00:19:26,056 --> 00:19:27,580
Kathy's end is lowercase.
400
00:19:27,658 --> 00:19:29,649
We've pieced three
of these together.
401
00:19:29,727 --> 00:19:31,718
Two of them
are definitely from Crandall.
402
00:19:31,795 --> 00:19:33,092
He IDs himself at the top.
403
00:19:33,163 --> 00:19:34,357
And the third?
404
00:19:34,498 --> 00:19:35,726
Partially damaged.
405
00:19:35,799 --> 00:19:38,097
We can't confirm
it's from Crandall,
406
00:19:38,168 --> 00:19:40,261
but it does fit
the pattern of his calls.
407
00:19:40,904 --> 00:19:42,030
Caller:
408
00:19:42,106 --> 00:19:44,768
"At least give me a chance
to talk you out of this."
409
00:19:45,276 --> 00:19:46,208
Kathy:
410
00:19:46,277 --> 00:19:47,767
"Nothing to talk about."
411
00:19:48,212 --> 00:19:49,236
Caller:
412
00:19:49,313 --> 00:19:51,280
"You want an easy way out,
but you owe me."
413
00:19:51,347 --> 00:19:53,907
Kathy:
"It always comes to that."
414
00:19:54,350 --> 00:19:55,874
Caller: "Damn right."
415
00:19:55,985 --> 00:19:57,646
Now here she
types in "SK, SK."
416
00:19:57,720 --> 00:19:59,381
That's code for
"I'm getting off."
417
00:19:59,455 --> 00:20:01,616
Caller:
"You hang up, you bitch,
418
00:20:01,691 --> 00:20:03,921
I'll kill you!
I'll kill you!"
419
00:20:03,993 --> 00:20:06,052
The call before
is from Kathy's mother.
420
00:20:06,129 --> 00:20:08,996
She talks about going shopping
tomorrow, Thursday.
421
00:20:09,065 --> 00:20:10,589
So this call was
on the Wednesday
422
00:20:10,667 --> 00:20:11,793
that she was killed.
423
00:20:11,868 --> 00:20:13,802
Right. Crandall calls her
in the afternoon.
424
00:20:13,870 --> 00:20:15,394
He begs her to take him back.
425
00:20:15,471 --> 00:20:17,462
He threatens her.
She hangs up.
426
00:20:17,540 --> 00:20:19,371
He waits for her
outside her place.
427
00:20:19,442 --> 00:20:20,909
She still blows him off.
428
00:20:20,977 --> 00:20:22,274
He kills her
at 11:10,
429
00:20:22,345 --> 00:20:23,936
he panics, and he runs home.
430
00:20:24,012 --> 00:20:28,381
At 11:30 he calls Fiorello.
"My God, I've killed Kathy."
431
00:20:31,253 --> 00:20:32,618
Arrest him.
432
00:20:47,102 --> 00:20:49,935
Paul Crandall,
you're under arrest
433
00:20:50,005 --> 00:20:52,030
for the murder
of Kathy McKenna.
434
00:20:52,107 --> 00:20:53,096
Read this.
435
00:21:03,718 --> 00:21:06,744
In all my years of
representing the disadvantaged
436
00:21:06,821 --> 00:21:08,948
I have never seen
such a spectacle.
437
00:21:11,525 --> 00:21:14,517
As if Paul's deafness
wasrt enough of a handicap,
438
00:21:14,595 --> 00:21:17,120
you hobble him
with a public arrest.
439
00:21:18,866 --> 00:21:19,890
Mr. Crandall,
440
00:21:19,967 --> 00:21:23,596
maybe you'd like to compare
the bruises on your feelings
441
00:21:23,671 --> 00:21:26,696
with the ones you left
on Kathy McKenna's neck.
442
00:21:27,307 --> 00:21:30,640
You have arraigned my client,
you haven't convicted him.
443
00:21:30,944 --> 00:21:32,536
There's nothing
in that folder of yours
444
00:21:32,612 --> 00:21:34,170
that connects him
to this murder.
445
00:21:34,247 --> 00:21:36,306
Which lie do you
want to start with?
446
00:21:36,383 --> 00:21:38,180
The one about the card game?
447
00:21:38,418 --> 00:21:40,045
You don't like his alibi?
448
00:21:40,120 --> 00:21:42,350
That's fine.
Let's clear that up right now.
449
00:21:47,460 --> 00:21:49,451
I lied because I was scared.
450
00:21:49,529 --> 00:21:51,190
I saw Kathy that night.
451
00:21:51,431 --> 00:21:54,025
I met her at the B and C Cafe
in the Village.
452
00:21:54,100 --> 00:21:55,294
We got into a taxi
453
00:21:55,368 --> 00:21:57,393
and we went back to her place.
454
00:21:57,470 --> 00:21:58,595
When I left,
455
00:21:58,670 --> 00:22:00,194
she was standing
on the sidewalk.
456
00:22:00,272 --> 00:22:01,671
She was still alive.
457
00:22:01,774 --> 00:22:04,834
It's more heart-warming
than the first version.
458
00:22:05,077 --> 00:22:06,510
But it leads to the same place,
459
00:22:06,578 --> 00:22:08,102
a small room upstate.
460
00:22:10,649 --> 00:22:12,810
The waitress at
the cafe will testify
461
00:22:12,885 --> 00:22:14,147
that their conversation
462
00:22:14,219 --> 00:22:16,380
seemed rational
and under control.
463
00:22:16,655 --> 00:22:18,122
She understands sign language?
464
00:22:18,190 --> 00:22:20,055
She's not blind,
Mr. Robinette.
465
00:22:20,125 --> 00:22:21,922
She understands body language.
466
00:22:21,994 --> 00:22:24,087
And I also read English,
young man,
467
00:22:24,163 --> 00:22:26,961
including the printouts
of Kathy McKenna's phone.
468
00:22:27,032 --> 00:22:28,761
The threats are unmistakable.
469
00:22:28,834 --> 00:22:31,495
And impossible
to attribute to my client.
470
00:22:31,669 --> 00:22:34,263
The best you can
do today is man one.
471
00:22:36,441 --> 00:22:37,533
Aim your 20l20s
472
00:22:37,608 --> 00:22:39,007
at the big letters on the wall.
473
00:22:39,076 --> 00:22:41,601
No direct evidence, no case.
474
00:22:43,247 --> 00:22:46,182
I'll look for your letter of
dismissal in the mail, gentlemen.
475
00:22:52,223 --> 00:22:53,986
Kathy was my friend
and a colleague.
476
00:22:54,058 --> 00:22:55,582
And I'm devastated
by her death.
477
00:22:55,660 --> 00:22:57,184
But I have an obligation
478
00:22:57,261 --> 00:22:59,320
that goes beyond
my personal feelings.
479
00:22:59,397 --> 00:23:01,956
An obligation to
the future of my institute.
480
00:23:02,032 --> 00:23:04,432
I don't want the public
thinking of Paul Crandall
481
00:23:04,501 --> 00:23:06,765
every time they read
about the work we're doing.
482
00:23:06,837 --> 00:23:08,998
Are you suggesting
leniency for him?
483
00:23:09,206 --> 00:23:12,334
Do you have any idea what the
effect of a trial like this will be?
484
00:23:13,009 --> 00:23:14,636
People use any excuse
485
00:23:14,711 --> 00:23:16,474
to keep their checkbook
in their pocket.
486
00:23:16,546 --> 00:23:18,241
This isn't about
signing checks.
487
00:23:18,315 --> 00:23:19,976
It's about
a girl being murdered.
488
00:23:20,050 --> 00:23:21,642
You didn't know Kathy.
489
00:23:21,751 --> 00:23:24,276
In time, she could've become
dean of Gallaudet.
490
00:23:25,021 --> 00:23:27,251
Her dedication was on
the same level as my own
491
00:23:27,324 --> 00:23:28,689
and I know if she were alive,
492
00:23:28,758 --> 00:23:30,589
she would agree
with my priorities.
493
00:23:31,661 --> 00:23:33,287
We appreciate your concerns,
Mr. Bryce.
494
00:23:33,362 --> 00:23:34,920
We'll add them to the mix.
495
00:23:34,997 --> 00:23:37,261
Thank you, Mr. Stone.
Mr. Robinette.
496
00:23:41,136 --> 00:23:42,501
First Rollins, then Bryce,
497
00:23:42,571 --> 00:23:44,937
both sticking their fingers
on the pity button.
498
00:23:45,774 --> 00:23:47,469
Once their violins get in tune,
499
00:23:47,543 --> 00:23:49,204
Crandall could
get a jury to hum along.
500
00:23:49,278 --> 00:23:52,372
He can't make them forget he's no
more disabled than Kathy McKenna.
501
00:23:52,448 --> 00:23:55,542
They won't see her deafness.
They'll only see Crandall's.
502
00:23:55,618 --> 00:23:58,280
That's all they'll care about,
unless of course we can prove
503
00:23:58,354 --> 00:24:00,219
that those are
his words on the printout.
504
00:24:04,592 --> 00:24:07,789
American Sign Language
is a spatial-visual medium
505
00:24:07,862 --> 00:24:09,921
with its own, uh, syntax.
506
00:24:10,532 --> 00:24:14,093
Uh, to a hearing person,
a word-for-word translation
507
00:24:14,168 --> 00:24:16,864
of ASL sounds
like broken English.
508
00:24:17,205 --> 00:24:21,039
Uh, "I go to the store"
comes out "Go store I."
509
00:24:21,776 --> 00:24:23,573
They do any better
on the typewriter?
510
00:24:23,645 --> 00:24:25,909
Well, the deaf learn
English grammar in school.
511
00:24:25,980 --> 00:24:29,143
Uh, in formal settings
they write as well as anyone.
512
00:24:29,584 --> 00:24:30,949
But on the phone they relax.
513
00:24:31,019 --> 00:24:32,077
Like everybody else.
514
00:24:32,153 --> 00:24:35,145
But their grammatical mistakes
are more subtle
515
00:24:35,223 --> 00:24:37,884
and they acquire
individual characteristics.
516
00:24:37,958 --> 00:24:40,222
What about the 3:21 printout?
Is it his?
517
00:24:40,294 --> 00:24:42,319
Right, uh, the death threat.
518
00:24:42,396 --> 00:24:44,660
Uh, I'm not surprised
nobody picked up on it.
519
00:24:44,765 --> 00:24:46,858
"At least give me a chance."
520
00:24:47,034 --> 00:24:48,194
Pretty generic.
521
00:24:48,268 --> 00:24:50,828
Except that there's
no sign in ASL for "at."
522
00:24:51,171 --> 00:24:53,162
It's not a word
they'd commonly use.
523
00:24:53,240 --> 00:24:56,437
Uh, same with
"you want an easy way out."
524
00:24:56,743 --> 00:24:59,940
The deaf don't differentiate
between "a" and "an."
525
00:25:01,181 --> 00:25:02,546
Prof. Durnars convinced
526
00:25:02,616 --> 00:25:04,243
it was written
by a hearing person.
527
00:25:04,318 --> 00:25:06,081
Because of two words?
528
00:25:06,453 --> 00:25:08,545
Crandall wrote pamphlets
for his organization.
529
00:25:08,621 --> 00:25:10,248
He's no stranger
to English syntax.
530
00:25:10,323 --> 00:25:11,551
If he didn't use "at" and "an"
531
00:25:11,624 --> 00:25:13,057
in any of the other printouts,
532
00:25:13,125 --> 00:25:15,093
I doubt he'd start
in the heat of argument.
533
00:25:15,161 --> 00:25:17,823
Ben Freed, Kathy's boyfriend
said he was at the library
534
00:25:17,897 --> 00:25:19,023
the night she was killed.
535
00:25:19,098 --> 00:25:21,532
Briscoe and Logan werert able
to pin down the time he left.
536
00:25:21,601 --> 00:25:24,195
He killed her?
Why? She stood him up?
537
00:25:24,470 --> 00:25:25,630
Well, Kathy's roommate said
538
00:25:25,705 --> 00:25:27,400
the relationship
was combustible.
539
00:25:27,473 --> 00:25:29,532
You add jealousy,
anything's possible.
540
00:25:30,710 --> 00:25:33,042
You mean
she broke a date with him.
541
00:25:33,112 --> 00:25:35,979
He waits for her.
He sees her with Crandall.
542
00:25:36,349 --> 00:25:37,543
Freed concludes
543
00:25:37,617 --> 00:25:39,448
she didn't deserve
to live without him.
544
00:25:39,818 --> 00:25:40,842
You can't be serious.
545
00:25:40,919 --> 00:25:42,580
I was in love with her,
for God's sake.
546
00:25:42,654 --> 00:25:44,281
All the more reason
to be disappointed
547
00:25:44,356 --> 00:25:45,618
when you saw her with Crandall.
548
00:25:45,690 --> 00:25:47,817
I told you, I didn't know.
549
00:25:47,892 --> 00:25:48,950
She loved me.
550
00:25:49,027 --> 00:25:51,257
We were going to
California together.
551
00:25:51,329 --> 00:25:54,162
We were applying to USC.
I have the forms.
552
00:25:55,634 --> 00:25:56,726
Here.
553
00:25:57,535 --> 00:26:00,129
It's to their MSW program.
554
00:26:00,405 --> 00:26:02,134
She even signed it.
555
00:26:04,075 --> 00:26:06,339
The deadline was
two days after she died.
556
00:26:06,945 --> 00:26:08,173
She changed her mind?
557
00:26:08,246 --> 00:26:09,304
No. She was waiting
558
00:26:09,381 --> 00:26:11,814
for a letter of recommendation
from Gordan Bryce.
559
00:26:12,750 --> 00:26:15,048
Bryce knew she was
moving to California?
560
00:26:15,119 --> 00:26:18,714
She'd been to see him
about it, uh, three weeks ago.
561
00:26:19,757 --> 00:26:21,588
Her parents confirmed
Kathy was thinking
562
00:26:21,659 --> 00:26:23,524
about going to
graduate school with Freed.
563
00:26:23,594 --> 00:26:24,583
The only hold-up
564
00:26:24,662 --> 00:26:26,493
was a letter of recommendation
from Bryce.
565
00:26:26,563 --> 00:26:29,589
Bryce told us that Kathy would
be working for him next year.
566
00:26:29,667 --> 00:26:30,759
Well, maybe he thought
567
00:26:30,834 --> 00:26:32,734
his claim on her
should take precedence.
568
00:26:32,903 --> 00:26:34,029
Bryce told the police
569
00:26:34,104 --> 00:26:35,662
that he was
with, uh, Jacob Brinkman
570
00:26:35,739 --> 00:26:37,468
until 12:00
the night Kathy was killed.
571
00:26:37,541 --> 00:26:38,838
Talk to Brinkman.
572
00:26:38,909 --> 00:26:40,171
I doubt he keeps
his eyes closed
573
00:26:40,244 --> 00:26:42,075
when he gives away his money.
574
00:26:45,682 --> 00:26:48,776
Sonya and I have
a lot of affection for Gordon.
575
00:26:49,585 --> 00:26:52,076
He's a little tough
to take sometimes.
576
00:26:52,188 --> 00:26:53,416
But thanks to him,
577
00:26:53,489 --> 00:26:55,150
our son Jared has
been able to live
578
00:26:55,224 --> 00:26:57,385
something like a normal life.
579
00:26:58,027 --> 00:26:59,358
Hard to take how?
580
00:26:59,429 --> 00:27:01,863
He has a special
kind of dedication.
581
00:27:01,931 --> 00:27:03,956
If he smells
a nickel in your pocket,
582
00:27:04,033 --> 00:27:05,466
he'll get in your face
583
00:27:05,535 --> 00:27:08,663
till he gets you to sign it
over to his institute.
584
00:27:09,372 --> 00:27:10,930
The night of the murder,
585
00:27:11,007 --> 00:27:12,668
what time did
he leave your house?
586
00:27:12,742 --> 00:27:14,505
I'd have to ask Sonya.
587
00:27:14,876 --> 00:27:16,639
We went to bed before 12:00.
588
00:27:16,978 --> 00:27:18,070
You're sure?
589
00:27:18,146 --> 00:27:20,842
11:30 p. m. Every night,
I take digitoxin.
590
00:27:20,916 --> 00:27:22,110
Bad heart.
591
00:27:22,451 --> 00:27:24,078
Did Mr. Bryce say
where he was going?
592
00:27:24,152 --> 00:27:25,449
I don't know.
593
00:27:25,520 --> 00:27:29,479
Mr. Robinette, Gordon may be
a single-minded pain in the ass
594
00:27:29,558 --> 00:27:33,324
but he didn't kill anybody,
least of all Kathy McKenna.
595
00:27:33,495 --> 00:27:34,621
You knew her?
596
00:27:34,730 --> 00:27:36,391
We had dinner
with Gordon and Kathy
597
00:27:36,465 --> 00:27:38,023
a number of times.
598
00:27:38,100 --> 00:27:39,624
She was more than his protégé?
599
00:27:39,701 --> 00:27:42,499
I am not going to define
his relationship with her.
600
00:27:42,671 --> 00:27:44,730
He obviously liked her.
601
00:27:44,806 --> 00:27:46,636
She probably was more in tune
602
00:27:46,707 --> 00:27:49,073
with his goals
than his first wife, Judith.
603
00:27:50,144 --> 00:27:52,135
I was going up
the stairs in the quad.
604
00:27:52,213 --> 00:27:54,078
Gordors the only one
who stopped to help.
605
00:27:54,148 --> 00:27:55,877
I was easy pickings.
606
00:27:56,951 --> 00:27:58,612
They can make
crutches for everything
607
00:27:58,686 --> 00:28:00,153
except your self-esteem.
608
00:28:00,855 --> 00:28:02,447
Gordon got me off the crutches
609
00:28:02,523 --> 00:28:04,684
and into feeling
pretty good about myself.
610
00:28:05,960 --> 00:28:08,485
So far, it doesn't sound
like grounds for divorce.
611
00:28:08,863 --> 00:28:10,592
I wanted a marriage.
612
00:28:10,664 --> 00:28:12,154
Gordon wanted a cause.
613
00:28:12,333 --> 00:28:14,358
He wanted to get
everybody off crutches.
614
00:28:14,435 --> 00:28:16,403
It made him feel important.
615
00:28:16,604 --> 00:28:18,594
I just couldn't compete
with an institute
616
00:28:18,671 --> 00:28:20,400
full of needy people.
617
00:28:20,473 --> 00:28:22,338
Being needed
is not a bad thing.
618
00:28:23,610 --> 00:28:25,077
Gordon needs to be needed.
619
00:28:25,445 --> 00:28:27,072
That's his life work.
620
00:28:27,714 --> 00:28:29,614
And he expected me
to be right there
621
00:28:29,682 --> 00:28:32,173
toiling alongside him,
every minute of the day.
622
00:28:32,619 --> 00:28:35,053
After 15 years,
I called a lawyer.
623
00:28:35,155 --> 00:28:36,782
How'd he take it?
624
00:28:38,691 --> 00:28:39,953
Not well.
625
00:28:40,560 --> 00:28:42,152
Disagree with
Gordon on anything,
626
00:28:42,228 --> 00:28:43,752
and it's a betrayal.
627
00:28:46,499 --> 00:28:48,330
Have you ever seen this girl?
628
00:28:48,835 --> 00:28:51,803
Yeah. I ran into them
at the park a year ago.
629
00:28:52,137 --> 00:28:53,900
He said she was committed.
630
00:28:54,006 --> 00:28:56,065
To him or to the institute?
631
00:28:57,743 --> 00:29:00,337
That would have to be
the same thing.
632
00:29:01,079 --> 00:29:03,411
The death threats were made
by a hearing person.
633
00:29:03,515 --> 00:29:05,983
Gordon Bryce
routinely uses TDD phones.
634
00:29:06,051 --> 00:29:07,916
We checked the LUDs
from the institute.
635
00:29:07,986 --> 00:29:10,580
They were three calls made to
Kathy the day she was killed.
636
00:29:10,656 --> 00:29:13,216
Fine, indict Gordon Bryce.
637
00:29:13,826 --> 00:29:15,953
If he doesn't work out,
638
00:29:16,161 --> 00:29:18,095
there's always
the nun in Calcutta.
639
00:29:18,163 --> 00:29:21,064
Bryce's wife told us that he
doesn't take rejection kindly.
640
00:29:21,133 --> 00:29:23,032
So if he takes Kathy McKenna
under his wing
641
00:29:23,100 --> 00:29:25,398
and he nurtures her, he's
not about to cut her loose
642
00:29:25,469 --> 00:29:27,027
and let her run off
to California.
643
00:29:27,104 --> 00:29:28,435
You cannot go forward
644
00:29:28,506 --> 00:29:30,098
unless you place him
at the scene.
645
00:29:30,174 --> 00:29:31,801
Well, she was
strangled with a scarf.
646
00:29:31,876 --> 00:29:34,344
There could be fibers on his
gloves, maybe even on his coat.
647
00:29:34,412 --> 00:29:35,970
There might
even be bloodstains.
648
00:29:36,047 --> 00:29:37,412
Suspicion isn't probable cause
649
00:29:37,481 --> 00:29:38,846
for a search warrant.
650
00:29:38,916 --> 00:29:39,905
Without a warrant,
651
00:29:39,984 --> 00:29:42,350
we can't even eliminate
him as a suspect.
652
00:29:42,420 --> 00:29:44,285
Who's on warrants today?
653
00:29:44,422 --> 00:29:46,322
Judge Chabot,
the policemars friend.
654
00:29:47,558 --> 00:29:48,718
Okay.
655
00:29:53,030 --> 00:29:55,395
You want to search
the mars home and his office?
656
00:29:55,465 --> 00:29:56,898
Wherever he hangs
his hat, Judge.
657
00:29:56,967 --> 00:29:58,594
There's nothing
in the application
658
00:29:58,668 --> 00:30:00,533
that directly links
Mr. Bryce to the crime.
659
00:30:00,604 --> 00:30:02,572
But the actions
listed in the affidavits
660
00:30:02,639 --> 00:30:04,368
show consciousness
of guilt, Your Honor.
661
00:30:04,441 --> 00:30:06,807
Judge, detectives Briscoe
and Logan have applied for
662
00:30:06,877 --> 00:30:08,811
and been granted
hundreds of search warrants.
663
00:30:08,879 --> 00:30:10,710
They know probable cause
when they see it.
664
00:30:10,780 --> 00:30:12,270
So do I, Mr. Robinette.
665
00:30:12,349 --> 00:30:14,112
I'm ducking
my wife's calls today.
666
00:30:14,184 --> 00:30:15,845
Doesrt mean I plan to kill her.
667
00:30:15,919 --> 00:30:17,011
Much as I would like to.
668
00:30:17,087 --> 00:30:18,213
Your Honor...
669
00:30:18,288 --> 00:30:20,620
Strike that last part, Maggie.
670
00:30:21,992 --> 00:30:24,119
You should learn to relax,
Mr. Robinette.
671
00:30:24,194 --> 00:30:25,990
Just because I do
20 of these a day,
672
00:30:26,061 --> 00:30:27,756
doesn't mean
we can't have a little fun.
673
00:30:27,830 --> 00:30:29,320
Is this your signature,
Detective?
674
00:30:29,398 --> 00:30:30,763
Yes, sir.
675
00:30:30,966 --> 00:30:32,228
Raise your right hand.
676
00:30:32,301 --> 00:30:34,292
Do you swear
the contents of your affidavit
677
00:30:34,370 --> 00:30:36,304
are true to
the best of your knowledge?
678
00:30:36,372 --> 00:30:37,532
I do.
679
00:30:42,678 --> 00:30:45,044
Forensics pulled six fibers
from Bryce's gloves,
680
00:30:45,114 --> 00:30:46,945
eight from his coat.
681
00:30:47,016 --> 00:30:48,881
Color and diameter
match Kathy's scarf.
682
00:30:49,018 --> 00:30:50,918
That's not good enough
for Adam.
683
00:30:50,986 --> 00:30:53,580
Those fibers on Bryce's coat
could have gotten there
684
00:30:53,656 --> 00:30:56,489
when Kathy went to see him
about her application.
685
00:30:56,592 --> 00:30:58,024
Hard to explain this away.
686
00:30:58,126 --> 00:31:00,321
The gloves found
at Bryce's house,
687
00:31:00,461 --> 00:31:02,691
minute traces of blood
on the left one.
688
00:31:02,797 --> 00:31:04,628
Now they're
still running a DNA,
689
00:31:04,699 --> 00:31:06,633
but the blood type
is the same as Kathy's.
690
00:31:06,834 --> 00:31:08,699
Well, I'd like to see
Arthur Gold argue
691
00:31:08,770 --> 00:31:11,136
that Kathy got a paper cut
from her application.
692
00:31:12,440 --> 00:31:15,204
Arthur Gold?
Bryce retained counsel?
693
00:31:15,610 --> 00:31:17,100
Yeah, Gold called this morning
694
00:31:17,178 --> 00:31:19,373
to see how serious
we are about Bryce.
695
00:31:19,447 --> 00:31:21,642
I'm gonna tell him
that Briscoe and Logan
696
00:31:21,716 --> 00:31:22,876
are on their way over
697
00:31:22,951 --> 00:31:25,078
to Bryce's office
with my answer.
698
00:31:26,054 --> 00:31:27,988
And tell Crandall's attorney
we're dismissing
699
00:31:28,056 --> 00:31:30,080
the charges against his client.
700
00:31:31,858 --> 00:31:33,689
Arthur Gold, please.
701
00:31:36,997 --> 00:31:38,487
Until I read your indictment,
702
00:31:38,565 --> 00:31:40,999
I thought that
minimalism was dead, Ben.
703
00:31:41,068 --> 00:31:43,332
One abstraction
teetering on another.
704
00:31:43,403 --> 00:31:45,030
It might get you a wall
at MOMA,
705
00:31:45,105 --> 00:31:47,437
I can't see it getting raves
from a New York jury.
706
00:31:47,507 --> 00:31:48,735
Uh, fortunately, Arthur,
707
00:31:48,809 --> 00:31:50,834
forensic science
isn't a matter of taste.
708
00:31:51,812 --> 00:31:53,370
Strange how something so random
709
00:31:53,447 --> 00:31:55,711
calls itself a science.
710
00:31:56,083 --> 00:31:58,779
Now how many people did
Kathy McKenna brush up against
711
00:31:58,852 --> 00:32:01,149
on the subway or on the street?
712
00:32:01,220 --> 00:32:03,654
But fibers from her scarf
make them all killers?
713
00:32:03,723 --> 00:32:05,884
It would if they had
her blood on their gloves.
714
00:32:05,992 --> 00:32:07,983
Inconclusive DNA.
715
00:32:08,060 --> 00:32:09,584
Blood type B negative?
716
00:32:09,662 --> 00:32:12,426
I'm B negative.
So is Gordors housekeeper.
717
00:32:12,531 --> 00:32:14,396
You can pile it up
as high as you like,
718
00:32:14,467 --> 00:32:15,934
it won't change the smell.
719
00:32:16,002 --> 00:32:17,902
Your client stepped in it
when he lied
720
00:32:17,970 --> 00:32:19,835
about the time
he left the Brinkmans'.
721
00:32:19,905 --> 00:32:21,566
Jacob and Sonya
are lovely people.
722
00:32:21,640 --> 00:32:23,130
They helped Gordon make bail.
723
00:32:23,209 --> 00:32:25,177
I'm sure their memory
will be more specific
724
00:32:25,244 --> 00:32:26,905
by the time
they take the stand.
725
00:32:26,979 --> 00:32:29,038
Mr. Bryce,
why are you so confident
726
00:32:29,115 --> 00:32:31,345
that these people will perjure
themselves for you?
727
00:32:31,417 --> 00:32:32,610
They won't have to.
728
00:32:33,918 --> 00:32:36,182
It was closer
to 10:30 when I left.
729
00:32:36,254 --> 00:32:38,188
I took a taxi to
Marcia Hendricks' apartment.
730
00:32:38,256 --> 00:32:39,985
She's my executive assistant.
731
00:32:40,058 --> 00:32:42,322
We had institute
business to discuss.
732
00:32:42,394 --> 00:32:44,157
I left some time
after midnight.
733
00:32:44,229 --> 00:32:45,594
What did you have to discuss
734
00:32:45,663 --> 00:32:47,756
that couldn't wait
until the next morning?
735
00:32:47,832 --> 00:32:48,992
I had a $200,000 check
736
00:32:49,067 --> 00:32:50,762
from Jacob Brinkman
in my pocket.
737
00:32:50,835 --> 00:32:52,200
Now Marcia had taken
738
00:32:52,270 --> 00:32:53,794
the bank-deposit stamp
home with her.
739
00:32:53,872 --> 00:32:56,033
I wanted that check stamped
soon as soon as possible,
740
00:32:56,107 --> 00:32:57,131
for security reasons.
741
00:32:57,208 --> 00:32:59,733
Whatever the reason he was
at Miss Hendricks' home,
742
00:32:59,811 --> 00:33:01,369
that's where he was.
743
00:33:01,446 --> 00:33:03,380
Just to get
the ball rolling, Ben.
744
00:33:05,015 --> 00:33:07,006
Demand for bill of particulars,
745
00:33:07,084 --> 00:33:09,143
motion to reopen
the grand jury,
746
00:33:09,219 --> 00:33:11,050
motion for change of venue.
747
00:33:11,121 --> 00:33:12,952
Have a nice weekend.
748
00:33:18,195 --> 00:33:20,163
Bryce shows up at
his secretary's house
749
00:33:20,230 --> 00:33:22,698
in the middle of the night
with a check for $200,000?
750
00:33:22,766 --> 00:33:24,734
Maybe they have
something more to cover up
751
00:33:24,802 --> 00:33:26,702
than his involvement
in a murder.
752
00:33:26,770 --> 00:33:28,965
Yeah. They're up to their
elbows in the cookie jar.
753
00:33:29,073 --> 00:33:32,406
Well, a good look at the
institute's books should help.
754
00:33:36,112 --> 00:33:39,878
501 s.
Not-for-profit, tax-exempt.
755
00:33:40,483 --> 00:33:41,916
You want to make a killing,
756
00:33:41,984 --> 00:33:43,849
buy the lease on
their copy machines.
757
00:33:43,920 --> 00:33:46,650
Copies to the IRS,
copies to the state,
758
00:33:46,722 --> 00:33:48,053
copies to the AG.
759
00:33:48,124 --> 00:33:49,921
Hamburgers should be
so well-regulated.
760
00:33:49,992 --> 00:33:52,722
They would be
if they were tax-deductible.
761
00:33:52,795 --> 00:33:54,490
Has the IRS
ever been through here?
762
00:33:54,564 --> 00:33:56,862
Ever since United Way
got taken to the cleaners,
763
00:33:56,933 --> 00:33:58,298
the Feds have clamped down.
764
00:33:58,367 --> 00:34:00,528
The institute
was audited a year ago.
765
00:34:00,603 --> 00:34:02,468
Not a penny out of place.
766
00:34:02,538 --> 00:34:05,473
When a donation comes in, how
soon before it makes its way
767
00:34:05,541 --> 00:34:06,940
into the institute's account?
768
00:34:07,008 --> 00:34:08,532
Within 48 hours.
769
00:34:08,610 --> 00:34:11,135
Even at 3%,
every dime of interest counts.
770
00:34:11,379 --> 00:34:12,971
And these statements
are current?
771
00:34:13,148 --> 00:34:15,173
The most recent ones
came in last week.
772
00:34:15,250 --> 00:34:17,275
Why, is something
wrong with the arithmetic?
773
00:34:17,352 --> 00:34:19,479
It's short a $200,000 check.
774
00:34:21,990 --> 00:34:23,048
I called Brinkman.
775
00:34:23,125 --> 00:34:25,593
The check never showed up
in the institute's books
776
00:34:25,660 --> 00:34:27,753
'cause it was made out
to the Jared Foundation,
777
00:34:27,829 --> 00:34:29,023
named after Brinkmars son.
778
00:34:29,097 --> 00:34:30,428
Did you check the records
779
00:34:30,499 --> 00:34:32,023
with the Attorney
General's office?
780
00:34:32,100 --> 00:34:34,466
The Jared Foundation
was incorporated this year,
781
00:34:34,536 --> 00:34:36,026
with Gordan Bryce as president
782
00:34:36,104 --> 00:34:37,628
and Kathy McKenna
as vice-president.
783
00:34:37,706 --> 00:34:39,605
But the articles
of incorporation
784
00:34:39,673 --> 00:34:41,573
were amended a week
after Kathy's murder.
785
00:34:41,642 --> 00:34:43,371
Guess who's
the new vice-president?
786
00:34:43,444 --> 00:34:44,809
Marcia Hendricks.
787
00:34:44,879 --> 00:34:46,972
Nice bump for a secretary.
788
00:34:47,148 --> 00:34:48,809
Well, we'll see
if Miss Hendricks
789
00:34:48,883 --> 00:34:50,441
will join us for coffee.
790
00:34:51,218 --> 00:34:53,914
I have been with Gordon Bryce
791
00:34:54,355 --> 00:34:58,189
since the day the institute
opened its doors.
792
00:34:59,326 --> 00:35:01,658
I earned that promotion.
793
00:35:01,729 --> 00:35:03,697
Miss Hendricks, what you earn
794
00:35:03,764 --> 00:35:06,426
is a place in line
at the Rikers cafeteria.
795
00:35:06,567 --> 00:35:07,966
That's the prize you get
796
00:35:08,035 --> 00:35:10,265
for finding
Mr. Bryce an alibi.
797
00:35:10,503 --> 00:35:14,439
I'm not lying.
He was there at 11:00.
798
00:35:15,008 --> 00:35:17,806
You spend your evenings
staring at clocks?
799
00:35:18,645 --> 00:35:21,045
I read captions on TV.
800
00:35:22,015 --> 00:35:25,451
The news just started
when Gordon arrived.
801
00:35:26,186 --> 00:35:27,813
And when he left?
802
00:35:30,190 --> 00:35:33,751
I didn't see the time.
It was morning.
803
00:35:34,360 --> 00:35:36,851
He told us he left
long before that.
804
00:35:38,364 --> 00:35:42,163
Gordon wouldn't say
that we were intimate.
805
00:35:42,534 --> 00:35:44,502
He does not
want to embarrass me.
806
00:35:44,570 --> 00:35:46,299
He is a gentleman.
807
00:35:46,371 --> 00:35:48,771
A gentleman
does not smash the head
808
00:35:48,840 --> 00:35:51,172
of a 21-year-old girl
into a brick wall.
809
00:35:54,680 --> 00:35:56,944
You are wrong about Gordon.
810
00:35:57,082 --> 00:35:59,482
He gave everything
to the institute.
811
00:36:00,752 --> 00:36:03,721
You just want to
destroy it all.
812
00:36:03,789 --> 00:36:06,553
Miss Hendricks, if that is
the story you want to stay with
813
00:36:06,625 --> 00:36:07,785
I'm sure Mr. Bryce
814
00:36:07,859 --> 00:36:09,884
can refer you
to a good attorney.
815
00:36:13,765 --> 00:36:15,288
Ben, a minute.
816
00:36:16,634 --> 00:36:19,535
Now, I'm just dipping my toes
in the water here.
817
00:36:19,604 --> 00:36:21,071
Gordon Bryce and I would like
818
00:36:21,138 --> 00:36:22,867
to explore alternatives
to trial.
819
00:36:22,940 --> 00:36:24,430
Alternatives?
820
00:36:24,775 --> 00:36:26,106
He doesn't want to become
821
00:36:26,177 --> 00:36:28,042
the Jim Bakker of
the Bryce Institute.
822
00:36:28,112 --> 00:36:30,137
He doesn't want
to take it down with him.
823
00:36:30,214 --> 00:36:32,876
I'm surprised you didn't
guarantee him an acquittal.
824
00:36:33,184 --> 00:36:35,049
He thinks by then
it'll be too late.
825
00:36:35,119 --> 00:36:37,212
He wants it off
the front page now
826
00:36:37,288 --> 00:36:40,155
no matter what the sacrifice
to him personally.
827
00:36:40,258 --> 00:36:42,226
What happened, Arthur?
Did his check bounce?
828
00:36:42,293 --> 00:36:44,318
I can't see you
letting an innocent client
829
00:36:44,395 --> 00:36:46,089
ride to prison on a principle.
830
00:36:46,162 --> 00:36:47,527
Of course he's innocent.
831
00:36:47,597 --> 00:36:49,758
We're talking damage control.
832
00:36:50,166 --> 00:36:51,633
Now, he'll plead to man two.
833
00:36:51,701 --> 00:36:53,134
He serves 18 months.
834
00:36:53,236 --> 00:36:55,227
Community service
for the balance.
835
00:36:55,305 --> 00:36:57,671
That's the sacrifice
he's willing to make.
836
00:36:57,774 --> 00:36:59,264
Tell Bryce no deal.
837
00:36:59,342 --> 00:37:01,503
He should've thought
of damage control
838
00:37:01,578 --> 00:37:03,512
before he laid his hands
on Kathy McKenna.
839
00:37:04,981 --> 00:37:06,949
You want to play
king of the mountain
840
00:37:07,017 --> 00:37:08,951
with Arthur Gold,
do it on your own time.
841
00:37:09,019 --> 00:37:10,384
When he offers you a plea,
842
00:37:10,453 --> 00:37:11,920
sit down, discuss it with him.
843
00:37:11,988 --> 00:37:14,855
We squeezed Marcia Hendricks,
out pops Arthur Gold.
844
00:37:14,924 --> 00:37:16,414
Obviously, Bryce doesn't think
845
00:37:16,493 --> 00:37:18,858
that Hendricks can go another
round without cracking.
846
00:37:18,927 --> 00:37:21,760
Maybe he doesn't want to
put her through the ordeal.
847
00:37:21,830 --> 00:37:23,457
Chivalry didn't end
with Camelot.
848
00:37:23,532 --> 00:37:25,625
It's more likely
that he's afraid
849
00:37:25,701 --> 00:37:28,101
she'll put him away for a
lot longer than 18 months.
850
00:37:28,170 --> 00:37:30,161
By not corroborating his alibi.
851
00:37:30,272 --> 00:37:33,036
Arthur Gold can make
his case without her.
852
00:37:33,142 --> 00:37:35,736
Not if she has direct evidence
to implicate Bryce.
853
00:37:35,811 --> 00:37:37,278
You'll need more
than "open sesame"
854
00:37:37,346 --> 00:37:38,608
to get her to talk.
855
00:37:38,681 --> 00:37:40,308
I think I can convince
a grand jury
856
00:37:40,382 --> 00:37:43,215
that woman had a lot to gain
from McKenna's death.
857
00:37:46,155 --> 00:37:48,282
This is completely out of line.
858
00:37:48,624 --> 00:37:50,750
The power to charge
a grand jury
859
00:37:50,825 --> 00:37:53,293
does not mean you can use it
to commit blackmail.
860
00:37:53,528 --> 00:37:55,018
As opposed to your client,
861
00:37:55,096 --> 00:37:56,996
I am not in it
for personal gain.
862
00:37:57,498 --> 00:37:58,692
Miss Hendricks,
863
00:37:59,367 --> 00:38:01,562
Kathy McKenna was your rival,
864
00:38:01,769 --> 00:38:03,794
professionally
and romantically.
865
00:38:03,871 --> 00:38:06,772
You had every reason
to cover up her murder.
866
00:38:07,175 --> 00:38:09,006
You can barely
prove obstruction,
867
00:38:09,077 --> 00:38:10,635
let alone conspiracy.
868
00:38:11,913 --> 00:38:14,711
The jury will draw
their own conclusions, sir.
869
00:38:17,318 --> 00:38:19,843
Marcia, when you hold on
to a drowning man,
870
00:38:19,921 --> 00:38:21,581
he drags you under.
871
00:38:40,273 --> 00:38:42,241
No charges. Immunity.
872
00:38:49,383 --> 00:38:52,749
Gordon never came
to my apartment.
873
00:38:53,219 --> 00:38:54,948
You mean after he killed Kathy?
874
00:39:01,527 --> 00:39:04,394
I couldn't let him go to jail.
875
00:39:05,865 --> 00:39:09,631
Without Gordon,
there would be no institute.
876
00:39:10,035 --> 00:39:11,730
And in return
for lying for him,
877
00:39:12,138 --> 00:39:13,571
he promoted you?
878
00:39:15,441 --> 00:39:18,035
I didn't need to lie.
879
00:39:19,044 --> 00:39:20,807
I can do that job.
880
00:39:21,547 --> 00:39:23,640
I would've been good at it.
881
00:39:23,883 --> 00:39:27,249
Miss Hendricks, how did
you know that he killed Kathy?
882
00:39:44,135 --> 00:39:46,228
I know what Gordon said
883
00:39:48,406 --> 00:39:51,898
to Kathy that day on the phone.
884
00:39:53,678 --> 00:39:55,669
You saw him at the phone?
885
00:39:59,883 --> 00:40:01,748
Then how do you know
what he said?
886
00:40:04,087 --> 00:40:07,648
Marcia, you must
tell them everything.
887
00:40:13,764 --> 00:40:17,165
I kept the printout
from the TDD.
888
00:40:19,870 --> 00:40:22,134
She kept transcripts
of every conversation
889
00:40:22,206 --> 00:40:24,299
that Bryce had with Kathy
from his office.
890
00:40:24,374 --> 00:40:25,898
Nearly three years' won'th.
891
00:40:25,976 --> 00:40:27,102
Including the threats
892
00:40:27,177 --> 00:40:28,609
we found in Kathy's apartment.
893
00:40:28,678 --> 00:40:30,270
Remind me
to bypass the switchboard.
894
00:40:30,346 --> 00:40:31,438
What was she planning to do?
895
00:40:31,514 --> 00:40:32,811
To have them bound in leather?
896
00:40:32,882 --> 00:40:35,373
Obviously, he was obsessed
with keeping her in his fold.
897
00:40:35,451 --> 00:40:38,113
Well, he wasrt the only one
with an obsession.
898
00:40:38,788 --> 00:40:40,779
Yeah. Well, it nearly
paid off for Marcia.
899
00:40:40,857 --> 00:40:43,155
Arthur Gold wants to
make sure it won't for us.
900
00:40:43,226 --> 00:40:44,420
Motion to suppress.
901
00:40:44,494 --> 00:40:45,756
Motion to...
902
00:40:45,995 --> 00:40:47,895
Arthur's true to form.
903
00:40:48,931 --> 00:40:52,059
Three words, Your Honor.
Expectation of privacy.
904
00:40:52,568 --> 00:40:53,865
And without it,
905
00:40:53,936 --> 00:40:55,335
we might as well be zoo animals
906
00:40:55,404 --> 00:40:57,872
living our lives
on public display.
907
00:40:58,040 --> 00:41:01,202
Uh, Your Honor,
in Wisconsin v. Rewolinski,
908
00:41:01,443 --> 00:41:03,638
a suspect called his wife
909
00:41:03,712 --> 00:41:06,647
on the police department's
own telephone for the deaf.
910
00:41:06,715 --> 00:41:09,309
Now, that individual's
expectation of privacy
911
00:41:09,384 --> 00:41:11,284
was greater than Mr. Bryce's.
912
00:41:11,353 --> 00:41:13,253
Yet the
Supreme Court of Wisconsin
913
00:41:13,321 --> 00:41:15,687
allowed
those transcripts at trial.
914
00:41:15,757 --> 00:41:16,951
I tend to agree.
915
00:41:17,025 --> 00:41:20,119
Anyone fool enough to make
incriminating statements
916
00:41:20,195 --> 00:41:21,992
on a police statiors telephone
917
00:41:22,063 --> 00:41:23,860
deserves what he gets.
918
00:41:23,932 --> 00:41:25,331
But Mr. Bryce was calling
919
00:41:25,400 --> 00:41:27,265
from the sanctity
of his own office.
920
00:41:27,335 --> 00:41:30,429
He had every right to expect
that no one would eavesdrop.
921
00:41:30,539 --> 00:41:32,529
Least of all
a jealous employee.
922
00:41:32,606 --> 00:41:34,540
Who acted on her own behalf
923
00:41:34,608 --> 00:41:36,940
and no matter how
reprehensible those actions,
924
00:41:37,011 --> 00:41:39,172
their result isn't subject
to suppression.
925
00:41:39,246 --> 00:41:41,680
What's reprehensible
is the state taking advantage
926
00:41:41,749 --> 00:41:43,239
of someone's disability
927
00:41:43,317 --> 00:41:45,376
to violate
a defendant's rights.
928
00:41:46,086 --> 00:41:49,385
Because they rely
on TDD devices,
929
00:41:49,456 --> 00:41:51,583
should the deaf
be more vulnerable
930
00:41:51,659 --> 00:41:53,524
to state-sanctioned
invasions of privacy?
931
00:41:53,594 --> 00:41:55,926
The evidence isn't being used
against Ms. McKenna,
932
00:41:55,996 --> 00:41:57,759
but against Mr. Bryce.
933
00:41:57,831 --> 00:42:00,959
Whose only disability is a
callous disregard for human life.
934
00:42:01,035 --> 00:42:02,763
Your Honor, that's gratuitous.
935
00:42:04,137 --> 00:42:07,197
I was thinking the same thing
about your motion.
936
00:42:07,807 --> 00:42:09,138
It's denied.
937
00:42:11,578 --> 00:42:13,068
In any event, Your Honor,
938
00:42:13,146 --> 00:42:14,909
the transcripts are irrelevant.
939
00:42:14,981 --> 00:42:16,414
For all anyone knows,
940
00:42:16,482 --> 00:42:18,507
they were manufactured
by Marcia Hendricks
941
00:42:18,585 --> 00:42:20,075
to blackmail my client.
942
00:42:20,153 --> 00:42:23,350
And that is an issue of fact to
be determined at trial, Your Honor.
943
00:42:23,957 --> 00:42:27,893
Point, set, match,
Mr. Gold. Goodbye.
944
00:42:31,798 --> 00:42:33,925
Ben, if you're not prepared
to meet us halfway,
945
00:42:34,000 --> 00:42:36,627
we'll be more than happy to
take our chances with a jury.
946
00:42:36,702 --> 00:42:38,829
Gordors reputation
still has some mileage.
947
00:42:38,904 --> 00:42:40,735
Not with Marcia Hendricks
writing his bio.
948
00:42:40,806 --> 00:42:42,171
Oh, the jury will think
949
00:42:42,240 --> 00:42:44,003
she's a desperate woman
seeking revenge.
950
00:42:44,076 --> 00:42:46,636
They may even suspect her
of killing McKenna herself.
951
00:42:46,745 --> 00:42:48,713
With your client's gloves?
952
00:42:51,083 --> 00:42:52,209
Man one.
953
00:42:52,284 --> 00:42:54,445
That's 81l3- to-25.
954
00:42:54,519 --> 00:42:56,111
Considering
the savagery of his crime,
955
00:42:56,188 --> 00:42:57,450
it's a gift.
Ben...
956
00:42:57,522 --> 00:42:58,853
Stop it, Arthur.
957
00:42:59,491 --> 00:43:01,220
I accept the offer.
958
00:43:01,393 --> 00:43:02,417
Gordon.
959
00:43:02,494 --> 00:43:04,189
I accept the offer.
960
00:43:07,431 --> 00:43:09,592
All right.
But we reserve the right
961
00:43:09,667 --> 00:43:11,760
to seek sentence reduction
down the line.
962
00:43:11,836 --> 00:43:14,771
Mr. Bryce, as you probably
know from your attorney,
963
00:43:14,839 --> 00:43:16,329
the condition of a plea bargain
964
00:43:16,407 --> 00:43:18,534
is that you recite
the facts of your crime.
965
00:43:20,011 --> 00:43:22,036
Whatever it takes
to spare the institute.
966
00:43:22,113 --> 00:43:23,410
Gordon.
967
00:43:24,215 --> 00:43:26,911
And unless your admission
of guilt is unambiguous,
968
00:43:26,984 --> 00:43:29,384
there can be
no plea bargain, sir.
969
00:43:30,721 --> 00:43:31,779
Kath...
970
00:43:33,658 --> 00:43:35,216
I taught her to speak.
971
00:43:35,493 --> 00:43:37,085
I taught her
to present herself.
972
00:43:37,161 --> 00:43:39,560
She couldn't even order
a meal in a restaurant.
973
00:43:39,629 --> 00:43:41,756
Mr. Bryce, please.
You're talking about her
974
00:43:41,831 --> 00:43:43,321
as if she were a trained seal.
975
00:43:43,400 --> 00:43:44,389
No.
976
00:43:46,403 --> 00:43:48,564
That woman shared with me.
977
00:43:49,839 --> 00:43:51,204
Everything.
978
00:43:52,776 --> 00:43:55,108
She was there for my institute.
979
00:43:55,578 --> 00:43:57,102
She convinced me
980
00:43:57,180 --> 00:43:59,045
that our work
really mattered to her.
981
00:43:59,849 --> 00:44:01,749
Are you blaming her, sir?
982
00:44:01,851 --> 00:44:04,513
You don't know what it took
983
00:44:04,587 --> 00:44:07,147
to pull that
childrers program together.
984
00:44:07,924 --> 00:44:09,891
I was after people for funds
985
00:44:09,958 --> 00:44:11,949
till they hated
the sight of me.
986
00:44:12,027 --> 00:44:13,824
And then, one day,
987
00:44:14,830 --> 00:44:18,061
she's off to California
with that hearing man.
988
00:44:19,268 --> 00:44:21,395
Nothing that I did mattered.
989
00:44:21,470 --> 00:44:22,732
All I was good for
990
00:44:22,805 --> 00:44:24,932
was some stupid
letter of recommendation.
991
00:44:33,248 --> 00:44:34,977
I picked up her scarf.
992
00:44:36,351 --> 00:44:38,148
I wanted her to stay.
993
00:44:41,689 --> 00:44:43,782
I don't know what happened.
994
00:44:56,771 --> 00:44:58,830
I should be able
to get the sentence reduced
995
00:44:58,906 --> 00:45:00,203
without breaking a sweat.
996
00:45:00,274 --> 00:45:02,299
It is just a matter
of packing the parole hearing
997
00:45:02,376 --> 00:45:03,536
with character witnesses.
998
00:45:03,611 --> 00:45:06,409
I'll be there too, Arthur,
with photos of Kathy McKenna.
999
00:45:07,014 --> 00:45:08,982
Will you get off
your high horse, Ben?
1000
00:45:09,050 --> 00:45:11,541
What has the man got to do
to prove his sincerity?
1001
00:45:11,619 --> 00:45:13,518
Go to Africa
like Albert Schweitzer?
1002
00:45:13,587 --> 00:45:15,714
For Schweitzer,
helping people was a calling.
1003
00:45:15,789 --> 00:45:17,450
For Bryce,
it was a means to an end.
1004
00:45:17,524 --> 00:45:19,719
No good deed comes
free and clear, Ben.
1005
00:45:19,793 --> 00:45:21,920
The man gets the job done.
1006
00:45:22,229 --> 00:45:24,891
Now I'd love to stand here
and discuss altruism with you,
1007
00:45:24,965 --> 00:45:26,523
but I'm late for a luncheon.
1008
00:45:26,600 --> 00:45:28,727
Charity fundraiser
at The Plaza.
1009
00:45:28,802 --> 00:45:30,394
There's still
some tickets available.
1010
00:45:30,470 --> 00:45:32,028
$500 a plate.
1011
00:45:38,779 --> 00:45:41,077
And every penny
of it tax-deductible.
