1
00:00:01,593 --> 00:00:03,561
In the criminal
justice system,
2
00:00:03,561 --> 00:00:07,291
the people are represented by two
separate yet equally important groups:
3
00:00:07,566 --> 00:00:09,363
The police who
investigate crime,
4
00:00:09,363 --> 00:00:12,232
and the district attorneys
who prosecute the offenders.
5
00:00:12,232 --> 00:00:14,271
These are their stories.
6
00:00:23,147 --> 00:00:26,082
Look at this.
Which one's your favorite?
7
00:00:27,585 --> 00:00:30,213
Yeah, that's pretty.
Come on, let's go.
8
00:00:33,457 --> 00:00:35,391
Would you like to sample
our new fragrance?
9
00:00:35,391 --> 00:00:36,448
Sure.
10
00:00:36,448 --> 00:00:38,357
It's called Tango
from De La Cuesta.
11
00:00:38,357 --> 00:00:41,295
We're offering a complete
makeover with every purchase.
12
00:00:41,295 --> 00:00:44,822
Ah, should we make ourselves
pretty for Daddy, Samantha?
13
00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:52,970
Such marvelous skin.
You must be Scandinavian.
14
00:00:52,970 --> 00:00:55,636
I'm originally from
Copenagen, actually.
15
00:00:55,636 --> 00:01:00,149
You know, De La Cuesta does make a
moisturizer with the sun block mixed in.
16
00:01:00,149 --> 00:01:01,409
Uh-huh.
17
00:01:01,409 --> 00:01:04,975
And you could also go a little
bit darker on the eyebrows, okay?
18
00:01:04,975 --> 00:01:07,044
Samantha, how do I look?
19
00:01:07,823 --> 00:01:09,120
Samantha?
20
00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:13,021
My God! Samantha?
21
00:01:14,296 --> 00:01:15,558
Samantha?
22
00:01:17,733 --> 00:01:19,030
Samantha!
23
00:01:21,136 --> 00:01:22,398
Saman...
24
00:01:28,876 --> 00:01:30,173
Samantha!
25
00:01:30,678 --> 00:01:31,975
Samantha!
26
00:01:33,681 --> 00:01:35,171
Samantha!
27
00:01:38,085 --> 00:01:39,245
Did you check the east wing?
28
00:01:39,245 --> 00:01:41,845
What are you waitir for?
Get going.
29
00:01:42,256 --> 00:01:43,518
We're from the 27.
30
00:01:43,518 --> 00:01:45,456
Oh, lucky you,
you're first on line.
31
00:01:45,456 --> 00:01:48,619
The borough commander's pulling
manpower from four precincts.
32
00:01:48,619 --> 00:01:50,856
Now, ESU, they made
three passes. Nothing.
33
00:01:50,856 --> 00:01:51,955
Parents here?
34
00:01:51,955 --> 00:01:55,365
No. Only the nanny. I called the
father, Gary Silver. Know the name?
35
00:01:55,365 --> 00:01:57,062
Yeah. Big Broadway producer.
36
00:01:57,062 --> 00:01:59,332
He's got more Tonys
than Southern Italy.
37
00:01:59,332 --> 00:02:01,237
Ma'am? Ma'am.
38
00:02:01,237 --> 00:02:04,004
She wouldn't go anywhere
without Brown Dog.
39
00:02:04,004 --> 00:02:05,135
Now listen to me.
40
00:02:05,135 --> 00:02:07,077
Where was the last place
you saw the girl?
41
00:02:07,077 --> 00:02:08,273
Here.
42
00:02:08,273 --> 00:02:10,281
Sitting right here.
43
00:02:10,281 --> 00:02:12,840
Now did you see anybody
around her? Would you...
44
00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:15,978
No, I'm... I'm the father
of the girl. Christina!
45
00:02:15,978 --> 00:02:17,588
What the hell happened,
Christina?
46
00:02:17,588 --> 00:02:18,748
Well, she's gone.
47
00:02:18,748 --> 00:02:20,382
Gone?
Where the hell were you?
48
00:02:20,382 --> 00:02:21,483
I don't know.
49
00:02:21,483 --> 00:02:23,050
Are you the girl's father?
50
00:02:23,050 --> 00:02:25,153
Are you in charge?
Who's in charge around here?
51
00:02:25,153 --> 00:02:26,255
Take it easy.
52
00:02:26,255 --> 00:02:27,594
Has my daughter been kidnapped?
53
00:02:27,594 --> 00:02:29,497
We're trying to figure it out,
Mr. Silver.
54
00:02:29,497 --> 00:02:31,866
There's nothing to figure out.
She's here or she isn't.
55
00:02:31,866 --> 00:02:32,995
Has she been kidnapped?
56
00:02:32,995 --> 00:02:34,869
She'll be all right.
They'll find her.
57
00:02:34,869 --> 00:02:35,964
Isn't that right?
58
00:02:35,964 --> 00:02:37,166
For God's sake.
59
00:02:37,166 --> 00:02:39,369
I know she will.
They'll find her, right?
60
00:04:03,158 --> 00:04:04,716
And that's all I can do?
Wait?
61
00:04:04,716 --> 00:04:06,260
Until somebody calls.
62
00:04:06,260 --> 00:04:07,386
And m-make a list
63
00:04:07,386 --> 00:04:09,430
of anybody
who might wanna get at you.
64
00:04:09,430 --> 00:04:11,158
People who don't like me
send lawyers,
65
00:04:11,158 --> 00:04:12,289
not kidnappers.
66
00:04:12,289 --> 00:04:15,358
I thought this only happened
in South America.
67
00:04:15,636 --> 00:04:16,728
Arert you supposed to call
68
00:04:16,728 --> 00:04:18,066
the FBI or something?
69
00:04:18,066 --> 00:04:20,231
Only after a ransom request.
70
00:04:21,442 --> 00:04:23,535
We'd like you to give us
any information you can
71
00:04:23,535 --> 00:04:24,600
on your staff.
72
00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:25,975
My staff?
73
00:04:27,181 --> 00:04:30,514
Lola, my housekeeper,
has been with us for 12 years.
74
00:04:32,152 --> 00:04:35,382
Look, Christina, Samantha's,
uh, nanny, is so upset
75
00:04:35,382 --> 00:04:37,150
she had to be sedated
by the doctor.
76
00:04:37,150 --> 00:04:39,350
Believe me, she's not involved.
77
00:04:39,350 --> 00:04:41,450
Is she involved with you?
78
00:04:43,696 --> 00:04:45,254
Look, do me a favor, will you?
79
00:04:45,254 --> 00:04:48,027
Don't give the newspapers
any more to play with. Okay?
80
00:04:48,935 --> 00:04:51,665
Arert you and the
girl's mother divorced?
81
00:04:53,339 --> 00:04:55,239
We share joint custody.
82
00:04:56,075 --> 00:04:59,874
Janet left the day before
yesterday for Majorca. Some spa.
83
00:04:59,874 --> 00:05:01,742
Of course,
they don't have a phone.
84
00:05:01,742 --> 00:05:05,214
My agent's trying to contact
the consulate right now.
85
00:05:05,214 --> 00:05:07,649
I mean, why don't they call?
I mean...
86
00:05:07,649 --> 00:05:09,983
They want money,
I'll... I'll give them money.
87
00:05:09,983 --> 00:05:13,991
Mr. Silver, it's possible
that this isn't about ransom.
88
00:05:16,028 --> 00:05:18,929
Children get taken
for all kinds of reasons.
89
00:05:25,736 --> 00:05:26,964
Oh, God.
90
00:05:28,873 --> 00:05:30,636
You vote for a perv?
91
00:05:30,841 --> 00:05:32,399
Hey, there's a lot of guys
out there
92
00:05:32,399 --> 00:05:34,740
who think that's what
7- year-olds are for.
93
00:05:34,740 --> 00:05:36,712
Just doesn't feel
like a pro, Don.
94
00:05:36,712 --> 00:05:38,043
She was picked up in the store,
95
00:05:38,043 --> 00:05:39,207
not in the street,
96
00:05:39,207 --> 00:05:41,581
and in nine hours,
not one phone call.
97
00:05:41,581 --> 00:05:43,017
Yeah. When you
wanna score big,
98
00:05:43,017 --> 00:05:44,679
you call
before we set up the tap.
99
00:05:44,679 --> 00:05:48,053
137 people there.
Nobody sees the kid?
100
00:05:48,458 --> 00:05:49,857
What did you get
off the picture?
101
00:05:49,857 --> 00:05:51,393
A 2-by-2 out of Dad's wallet,
102
00:05:51,393 --> 00:05:54,362
and he doesn't even think
it looks like her.
103
00:05:54,362 --> 00:05:55,520
All right,
104
00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:57,759
let's get the new picture
out to the papers.
105
00:05:57,759 --> 00:05:59,631
I'll have the 19
do everybody again.
106
00:06:00,804 --> 00:06:01,896
What?
107
00:06:04,808 --> 00:06:05,797
Just one tape?
108
00:06:05,797 --> 00:06:08,139
They got no cameras
on the escalator.
109
00:06:08,139 --> 00:06:09,701
Security guards
only hit the tapes
110
00:06:09,701 --> 00:06:11,370
when they see
something suspicious,
111
00:06:11,370 --> 00:06:13,347
when an item's picked up.
112
00:06:13,347 --> 00:06:15,246
Here, toy department.
113
00:06:18,620 --> 00:06:20,281
That's her.
114
00:06:21,857 --> 00:06:23,882
And that's not the nanny.
115
00:06:24,693 --> 00:06:26,058
Freeze it.
116
00:06:26,695 --> 00:06:28,253
Look at that jacket.
117
00:06:28,253 --> 00:06:31,527
The people in the stock room
wore jackets like that.
118
00:06:31,527 --> 00:06:33,999
Go forward,
maybe he turns around.
119
00:06:40,074 --> 00:06:42,133
They said as soon as
she talked to an employee,
120
00:06:42,133 --> 00:06:43,905
the tape was shut off.
121
00:06:43,905 --> 00:06:46,572
Yeah, they recognized
the jacket, too.
122
00:06:47,048 --> 00:06:50,074
Let's get a list.
Every employee in the store.
123
00:06:51,886 --> 00:06:53,080
Four hundred people?
124
00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:55,622
What in the hell could they
all be doir in stock rooms?
125
00:06:55,622 --> 00:06:57,555
A lot of things
you don't wanna know about.
126
00:06:57,555 --> 00:07:00,457
Now, here's a guy, 1-to-3
for receiving stolen goods.
127
00:07:00,457 --> 00:07:02,722
You hire him as a stock clerk?
128
00:07:04,698 --> 00:07:07,394
Hey, hey.
Hey, we just got a bite.
129
00:07:07,394 --> 00:07:09,196
Zorn, Harold.
130
00:07:09,196 --> 00:07:11,328
From school teacher
to stockroom.
131
00:07:11,328 --> 00:07:14,237
On parole when hired.
Three years ago.
132
00:07:14,237 --> 00:07:16,036
Charged with sex abuse one.
133
00:07:16,036 --> 00:07:19,010
Pled down to 3, a misdemeanor.
Didrt serve any time.
134
00:07:19,010 --> 00:07:20,842
Sexual abuse of who?
135
00:07:23,883 --> 00:07:25,510
10-year-old girl.
136
00:07:25,951 --> 00:07:28,283
Where does he work
in the store?
137
00:07:28,283 --> 00:07:30,411
Fifth floor stockroom.
138
00:07:30,623 --> 00:07:32,250
Childrers toys.
139
00:07:37,296 --> 00:07:38,957
He's an excellent employee.
140
00:07:38,957 --> 00:07:40,726
The stuffed animal display
was his idea.
141
00:07:40,726 --> 00:07:42,961
He knew children get bored
shopping with parents.
142
00:07:42,961 --> 00:07:45,003
Now, wait a minute.
This man had a Ph. D.
143
00:07:45,003 --> 00:07:46,502
And he wanted to be
a stock clerk?
144
00:07:46,502 --> 00:07:48,368
I mean, doesn't that
raise a flag for you?
145
00:07:48,368 --> 00:07:49,736
In this economy?
146
00:07:49,736 --> 00:07:52,276
We have investment brokers
down in shipping.
147
00:07:52,276 --> 00:07:54,436
What time did his shift
usually start?
148
00:07:54,436 --> 00:07:56,036
Oh, he won't be in today.
He called.
149
00:07:56,036 --> 00:07:57,604
Said he has the flu
or something.
150
00:07:57,604 --> 00:08:00,150
Well, I guess
we should make a house call.
151
00:08:03,688 --> 00:08:06,179
Mr. Zorn, police. Open up.
152
00:08:08,526 --> 00:08:10,152
Hey, you gonna break it down?
153
00:08:10,152 --> 00:08:12,058
Why don't you save us
the bruises?
154
00:08:12,058 --> 00:08:13,187
You got a warrant?
155
00:08:13,187 --> 00:08:14,787
We're lookir for
a 7-year-old girl.
156
00:08:14,787 --> 00:08:16,264
Now open it.
157
00:08:16,264 --> 00:08:17,459
Jeez.
158
00:08:18,168 --> 00:08:20,295
You mean he's one of those?
159
00:08:41,824 --> 00:08:42,882
Porno?
160
00:08:42,882 --> 00:08:44,256
Can'toons.
161
00:08:59,374 --> 00:09:00,466
Mama.
162
00:09:01,309 --> 00:09:02,537
Lennie.
163
00:09:03,645 --> 00:09:04,771
Mama.
164
00:09:18,293 --> 00:09:19,817
It's chocolate.
165
00:09:20,328 --> 00:09:22,227
What does he do,
roll around in it?
166
00:09:22,227 --> 00:09:22,977
No.
167
00:09:25,366 --> 00:09:27,493
What he does is a night shift.
168
00:09:27,493 --> 00:09:28,830
Pay-check stub,
169
00:09:28,830 --> 00:09:32,361
Schroeder's Fine Chocolates,
631, East 88th Street.
170
00:09:40,848 --> 00:09:43,282
Is your inclination
the same as mine?
171
00:09:43,282 --> 00:09:45,840
You wanna stick his head
in the vat?
172
00:09:46,486 --> 00:09:47,885
We know that ain't gonna work.
173
00:09:47,885 --> 00:09:49,319
Molesters are all wimps.
174
00:09:49,319 --> 00:09:50,856
If we spook him,
he's gonna freeze.
175
00:09:50,856 --> 00:09:52,357
And then no Samantha.
176
00:09:52,357 --> 00:09:54,450
So it's kinder, gentler.
177
00:09:59,499 --> 00:10:01,467
Hi, Harold Zorn?
178
00:10:03,102 --> 00:10:04,399
I haven't done anything.
179
00:10:04,399 --> 00:10:08,132
Take it easy, Harold. I'm Det.
Briscoe, this is Det. Logan.
180
00:10:08,941 --> 00:10:10,340
Am I being arrested?
181
00:10:10,709 --> 00:10:13,109
No, why?
You haven't done anything.
182
00:10:13,109 --> 00:10:15,738
Harold, Harold, we just
wanna clear up a few points.
183
00:10:15,738 --> 00:10:18,442
Now, maybe this isn't the
best place to talk, huh?
184
00:10:18,442 --> 00:10:20,314
It's about the girl.
185
00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:23,751
Just a few questions.
186
00:10:25,157 --> 00:10:27,421
Okay, I wanna get this settled.
187
00:10:31,862 --> 00:10:33,693
I'm not denying I spoke to her.
188
00:10:33,693 --> 00:10:35,698
I've never denied that.
189
00:10:36,167 --> 00:10:37,191
And then?
190
00:10:37,191 --> 00:10:40,965
Then, I left the store to have
coffee at Bennie's on my break.
191
00:10:40,965 --> 00:10:42,130
You know all this.
192
00:10:42,130 --> 00:10:43,434
Why aren't you checking it out?
193
00:10:43,434 --> 00:10:45,236
People are checking it, Harold.
194
00:10:45,236 --> 00:10:47,971
It's... it's... I don't think
we have the full picture.
195
00:10:47,971 --> 00:10:50,843
Yeah, like I don't understand
why you ran.
196
00:10:50,843 --> 00:10:52,006
I didn't run.
197
00:10:52,006 --> 00:10:55,416
I tried to go back to the
store, but I was locked out.
198
00:10:55,416 --> 00:10:58,249
I've done everything I'm
supposed to about my problem,
199
00:10:58,249 --> 00:11:01,347
counseling, medications,
ask my parole officer.
200
00:11:01,347 --> 00:11:03,358
I'm trying to deal with it.
201
00:11:03,358 --> 00:11:05,257
Look at that picture.
202
00:11:05,862 --> 00:11:08,524
You still wanted her,
didn't you, Zorn?
203
00:11:09,366 --> 00:11:10,594
Harold,
204
00:11:11,401 --> 00:11:13,892
what... what was Samantha like
when you talked to her?
205
00:11:13,892 --> 00:11:15,938
What did you talk about?
206
00:11:16,206 --> 00:11:18,106
I asked her
if she liked the giraffe.
207
00:11:18,106 --> 00:11:20,141
She pointed
to the stuffed gorilla
208
00:11:20,141 --> 00:11:23,269
and said a woman at the
register was buying it for her.
209
00:11:23,269 --> 00:11:25,074
That's all. I left.
210
00:11:34,890 --> 00:11:36,118
His lawyer?
211
00:11:36,118 --> 00:11:38,022
His alibi. It checks.
212
00:11:38,560 --> 00:11:40,118
They know him
at the coffee shop.
213
00:11:40,118 --> 00:11:42,527
He was there when they were
shutting down the store.
214
00:11:43,664 --> 00:11:45,029
Square one.
215
00:11:45,029 --> 00:11:46,760
Square minus one.
216
00:11:52,273 --> 00:11:55,367
I think you're right.
Get back to me, all right?
217
00:11:55,367 --> 00:11:56,943
Who's got Silver's house?
218
00:11:56,943 --> 00:11:59,844
I do, but there's nothing yet.
No calls, no ransom notes.
219
00:11:59,844 --> 00:12:02,576
Silver's probably
taking tranquilizers.
220
00:12:04,052 --> 00:12:05,178
Mike,
221
00:12:05,987 --> 00:12:07,817
They, uh, checked
the register tapes.
222
00:12:07,817 --> 00:12:09,583
Somebody bought
the stuffed gorilla
223
00:12:09,583 --> 00:12:11,681
maybe three minutes
before they locked the doors.
224
00:12:11,681 --> 00:12:13,225
$400. Cash.
225
00:12:13,493 --> 00:12:14,551
$400?
226
00:12:14,551 --> 00:12:15,822
What was it stuffed with?
227
00:12:15,822 --> 00:12:18,330
Oh, wait, three minutes
to take the escalator
228
00:12:18,330 --> 00:12:21,856
down from the 5th Floor with a
little girl, a big stuffed animal
229
00:12:21,856 --> 00:12:24,130
and get out the front door
before it's sealed?
230
00:12:24,130 --> 00:12:27,139
Who did the interviews at the
back door, the loading entrance?
231
00:12:27,139 --> 00:12:30,142
Uh, it was the 26.
15, 20 guys, plus uniforms.
232
00:12:30,142 --> 00:12:32,200
Okay, so the order goes
out to seal the place.
233
00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:34,337
How much you wanna bet
the news traveled faster
234
00:12:34,337 --> 00:12:36,677
to the main floor
than the loading dock?
235
00:12:36,677 --> 00:12:38,114
Go for it.
236
00:12:39,151 --> 00:12:41,142
Aunt Polly gives them
a flowered tie,
237
00:12:41,142 --> 00:12:43,120
they exchange it
for a toaster oven.
238
00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:45,487
Too many Aunt Pollies,
my back goes out.
239
00:12:45,487 --> 00:12:47,185
Merry Christmas.
240
00:12:47,393 --> 00:12:48,792
We locked the gate.
241
00:12:48,792 --> 00:12:51,022
Before the street doors,
after, I don't know.
242
00:12:51,022 --> 00:12:53,065
Anybody ask you
if you saw the little girl?
243
00:12:53,065 --> 00:12:54,621
Only about 40 cops.
244
00:12:54,621 --> 00:12:56,428
I had 20, 30 customers here,
245
00:12:56,428 --> 00:12:58,230
kids, loading stuff into cars.
246
00:12:58,230 --> 00:12:59,861
I mean,
even if I was looking...
247
00:12:59,861 --> 00:13:02,168
Anybody load
a big stuffed gorilla?
248
00:13:02,168 --> 00:13:05,038
End of the day, you could give
me a box of thousand-dollar bills,
249
00:13:05,038 --> 00:13:06,134
I wouldn't notice.
250
00:13:06,134 --> 00:13:08,111
Gorilla?
L... I helped her.
251
00:13:08,111 --> 00:13:09,576
She had a kid with her.
252
00:13:09,576 --> 00:13:11,171
You get a look at the lady?
253
00:13:11,171 --> 00:13:14,082
Dark hair. Kinda old,
40 or something like that.
254
00:13:14,082 --> 00:13:15,779
I didn't really get
a good look at her.
255
00:13:15,779 --> 00:13:17,116
What about her car?
256
00:13:17,116 --> 00:13:18,620
It was real nice,
uh, brand new,
257
00:13:18,620 --> 00:13:21,453
um, grey, with one of them
black leather tops.
258
00:13:21,453 --> 00:13:22,549
Landau.
259
00:13:22,549 --> 00:13:24,685
Is that what they call it?
It was a Lincoln.
260
00:13:24,685 --> 00:13:26,319
Huh, lucky
she didn't get towed, man.
261
00:13:26,319 --> 00:13:30,332
I tell her, "Over here you get
towed. " All she got was a ticket.
262
00:13:34,404 --> 00:13:37,339
Three square blocks,
11:00 a. m. To 1:00 p. m. Shift?
263
00:13:37,339 --> 00:13:39,739
I mean, how many tickets
can two meter-maids write?
264
00:13:39,739 --> 00:13:43,438
Looks like they nailed over
200 cars, most of them Japanese.
265
00:13:43,438 --> 00:13:46,209
Oh, there's another reason
to buy American.
266
00:13:47,483 --> 00:13:50,145
61st and Lex. 1:45.
267
00:13:51,487 --> 00:13:53,751
Green Lincoln.
Street cleaning.
268
00:13:53,751 --> 00:13:56,950
Street cleaning? They
still do that in New York?
269
00:13:57,693 --> 00:14:02,153
Red zone, 63rd and 3rd.
2:00. Grey Lincoln.
270
00:14:12,274 --> 00:14:14,606
How you doir?
You Alan Fischer?
271
00:14:15,210 --> 00:14:16,234
Yeah.
272
00:14:16,234 --> 00:14:17,972
You own a grey Lincoln?
273
00:14:17,972 --> 00:14:19,377
What happened?
Somebody steal it?
274
00:14:19,377 --> 00:14:22,041
Ah, look, we wanna ask
you a few questions, okay?
275
00:14:22,041 --> 00:14:23,584
I drove it an hour ago,
it's okay.
276
00:14:23,584 --> 00:14:26,212
The questiors about
Samantha Silver.
277
00:14:28,190 --> 00:14:29,486
Look, you guys have a warrant?
278
00:14:29,486 --> 00:14:30,922
'Cause if you don't,
I'm afraid...
279
00:14:30,922 --> 00:14:31,980
We don't need a warrant.
280
00:14:31,980 --> 00:14:33,651
Stay right there.
Don't move.
281
00:14:33,651 --> 00:14:35,160
Samantha, come here, honey. Mommy!
282
00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:36,218
Are you Samantha?
283
00:14:36,218 --> 00:14:38,231
Get your hands off her!
Who the hell are you?
284
00:14:38,231 --> 00:14:39,323
This your daughter?
285
00:14:39,323 --> 00:14:40,424
Don't touch my daughter.
286
00:14:40,424 --> 00:14:41,627
All right, we made a mistake.
287
00:14:41,627 --> 00:14:42,726
Alan, what's going on?
288
00:14:42,726 --> 00:14:43,792
Mike.
289
00:14:43,792 --> 00:14:45,668
Jennifer, it's okay, honey.
290
00:14:45,668 --> 00:14:48,105
No one's gonna hurt you.
It's gonna be okay.
291
00:14:48,105 --> 00:14:49,335
It'll be all right.
292
00:14:49,610 --> 00:14:51,134
This is crazy.
293
00:14:51,345 --> 00:14:53,608
I bought that for my daughter.
294
00:14:54,247 --> 00:14:55,612
Ah, sure you did.
295
00:14:55,612 --> 00:14:57,377
That's why
you wouldn't open the door.
296
00:14:57,377 --> 00:15:00,385
Your car, Mr. Fischer. It was
ticketed right outside the store.
297
00:15:00,385 --> 00:15:02,216
I couldn't find a spot.
298
00:15:02,216 --> 00:15:03,949
I had to pick up some...
299
00:15:03,949 --> 00:15:05,581
Some, uh,
300
00:15:06,192 --> 00:15:07,819
Airplane tickets?
301
00:15:08,561 --> 00:15:10,324
Clothes? Shoes?
302
00:15:10,830 --> 00:15:12,161
What'd you have to pick up?
303
00:15:12,161 --> 00:15:14,257
Where'd you park the car?
304
00:15:14,901 --> 00:15:16,300
62nd Street.
305
00:15:16,300 --> 00:15:18,859
63rd. Your wife drove the car.
306
00:15:19,671 --> 00:15:22,265
We have somebody
who can identify her.
307
00:15:23,842 --> 00:15:26,242
Is the little girl dead, Alan?
Is that it?
308
00:15:26,242 --> 00:15:29,872
Somethir go wrong before you
could write the ransom note?
309
00:15:30,649 --> 00:15:32,480
Why did you take her?
310
00:15:33,285 --> 00:15:35,515
What did you wanna do to her?
311
00:15:36,588 --> 00:15:37,987
Was it your wife?
312
00:15:39,291 --> 00:15:41,520
We had nothing to do with it.
313
00:15:42,693 --> 00:15:44,285
You bought the stuffed animal.
314
00:15:44,285 --> 00:15:46,421
The store had six of 'em.
Now they have five.
315
00:15:46,421 --> 00:15:48,089
We bought it
downtown somewhere.
316
00:15:48,089 --> 00:15:49,894
Somewhere in the village.
317
00:15:49,894 --> 00:15:51,958
Keep diggir, Mrs. Fischer.
318
00:15:51,958 --> 00:15:54,971
Spencer's is the only place
that sells them.
319
00:15:57,308 --> 00:15:58,832
You have a daughter.
320
00:15:58,832 --> 00:16:03,073
You wanna trade Christmas presents
with her in a prison waiting room?
321
00:16:04,215 --> 00:16:06,205
We did nothing wrong.
322
00:16:09,185 --> 00:16:11,085
I wanna see my husband.
323
00:16:11,655 --> 00:16:13,486
You can't keep us here
like this.
324
00:16:13,486 --> 00:16:15,456
Well, you can
always have a lawyer.
325
00:16:15,456 --> 00:16:17,425
We don't need a lawyer.
326
00:16:17,627 --> 00:16:20,596
You can't be as stupid
as you sound, Mr. Fischer.
327
00:16:20,596 --> 00:16:22,256
Kidnapping's just like murder.
328
00:16:22,256 --> 00:16:23,629
25 years to life.
329
00:16:23,629 --> 00:16:25,361
We didn't kidnap her!
330
00:16:25,361 --> 00:16:26,663
Really?
331
00:16:27,037 --> 00:16:28,469
What did you do, huh?
332
00:16:28,469 --> 00:16:31,301
Invite her home to play with
your daughter? Where is she?
333
00:16:40,616 --> 00:16:42,481
Mr. Fischer's clean.
334
00:16:42,481 --> 00:16:45,520
Myra Fischer, one count
trespassing in 1991.
335
00:16:45,520 --> 00:16:48,248
She handcuffed herself to the
front door of Gracie Mansion
336
00:16:48,248 --> 00:16:51,225
protesting starter enforcement
of child support payments.
337
00:16:51,225 --> 00:16:52,623
Job history as a volunteer
338
00:16:52,623 --> 00:16:55,458
for Abused Childrers
Legal Defense Fund.
339
00:16:56,631 --> 00:16:57,825
Thanks.
340
00:17:03,137 --> 00:17:05,435
Of course our justice system
affords protection.
341
00:17:05,435 --> 00:17:07,997
Thousands of children abused
and nobody cares.
342
00:17:07,997 --> 00:17:09,976
And nobody gets convicted.
343
00:17:09,976 --> 00:17:12,308
So we rescue the children
ourselves.
344
00:17:12,308 --> 00:17:14,814
Does that include
Samantha Silver?
345
00:17:15,516 --> 00:17:17,415
Who's Samantha Silver?
346
00:17:18,251 --> 00:17:19,741
All right.
You can call it rescue.
347
00:17:19,741 --> 00:17:21,412
A grand jury
calls it kidnapping.
348
00:17:21,412 --> 00:17:22,750
Is that a threat, Detective?
349
00:17:22,750 --> 00:17:23,915
No, it's penal law.
350
00:17:23,915 --> 00:17:25,787
Now, where did the Fischers
take the girl?
351
00:17:25,787 --> 00:17:28,225
The Fischers have nothing
to do with this organization.
352
00:17:28,225 --> 00:17:30,024
Oh, so you've heard
of the Fischers,
353
00:17:30,024 --> 00:17:31,997
but you've never heard
of Samantha Silver?
354
00:17:31,997 --> 00:17:33,589
Well, let me just inform you,
355
00:17:33,589 --> 00:17:35,692
the Fischers are in a cell
at Central Booking.
356
00:17:35,692 --> 00:17:36,895
Would you care to join them?
357
00:17:36,895 --> 00:17:39,200
This is the last stop
on the train.
358
00:17:39,200 --> 00:17:41,739
Unless we find Samantha,
you're it.
359
00:17:43,943 --> 00:17:45,035
Maybe you should talk to...
360
00:17:45,035 --> 00:17:46,510
Sally...
Ned.
361
00:17:46,712 --> 00:17:48,077
We gave her money,
362
00:17:48,077 --> 00:17:51,275
what she does with it
is not our responsibility.
363
00:17:53,419 --> 00:17:55,512
You have to talk
to Ramona Stark.
364
00:17:55,512 --> 00:17:58,079
She's a child psychologist.
Very well known.
365
00:17:58,079 --> 00:18:00,853
You better hope she's
still on the train, too.
366
00:18:00,853 --> 00:18:02,518
Where do we find her?
367
00:18:13,471 --> 00:18:15,598
Lennie, Lennie, come here.
368
00:18:17,976 --> 00:18:19,603
Do you hear that?
369
00:18:19,603 --> 00:18:21,770
Why? I can...
370
00:18:35,125 --> 00:18:37,355
What do you think?
No warrant.
371
00:18:38,061 --> 00:18:40,655
Well, we've got
exigent circumstances.
372
00:18:50,474 --> 00:18:52,703
All right, you wanna get away
from the door, ma'am?
373
00:18:52,703 --> 00:18:54,402
It's the police.
374
00:18:57,613 --> 00:18:59,080
Ramona Stark?
375
00:18:59,615 --> 00:19:00,707
Yes.
376
00:19:01,050 --> 00:19:02,677
Nice to meet you.
377
00:19:03,152 --> 00:19:05,882
You're under arrest for the
kidnapping of Samantha Silver.
378
00:19:05,882 --> 00:19:08,480
It's okay, Samantha. We're gonna
take you home to your daddy.
379
00:19:08,480 --> 00:19:09,616
No!
380
00:19:09,616 --> 00:19:12,320
I'm Janet Silver.
Samantha's my daughter.
381
00:19:12,320 --> 00:19:14,192
She wasrt kidnapped.
382
00:19:14,497 --> 00:19:15,986
She's here at my request.
383
00:19:15,986 --> 00:19:19,033
Mrs. Silver, your daughter was
abducted from a department store
384
00:19:19,033 --> 00:19:21,193
and from your husband's
legal custody.
385
00:19:21,193 --> 00:19:22,600
She was taken
for her protection.
386
00:19:22,600 --> 00:19:24,605
My husband
will never see her again.
387
00:19:24,605 --> 00:19:26,504
I want charges
brought against him.
388
00:19:26,504 --> 00:19:30,306
Samantha has told us that her
father repeatedly molested her.
389
00:19:40,387 --> 00:19:42,355
You're not gonna do anything?
390
00:19:42,355 --> 00:19:45,324
Does Samantha have to spell it
out for you in her alphabet soup?
391
00:19:45,324 --> 00:19:48,725
She took showers with him
and his live-in girlfriend,
392
00:19:48,725 --> 00:19:50,990
naps with them
when she was naked.
393
00:19:50,990 --> 00:19:52,999
My child was living in terror.
394
00:19:52,999 --> 00:19:55,365
Mrs. Silver, we are sorry
for your daughter,
395
00:19:55,365 --> 00:19:58,530
but an accusation is not
enough for us to prosecute.
396
00:19:58,530 --> 00:19:59,732
Oh, no.
397
00:19:59,732 --> 00:20:01,604
I examined the girl.
398
00:20:01,604 --> 00:20:03,642
No, there is no doubt
what happened.
399
00:20:03,642 --> 00:20:06,304
Dr. Jenner, you examined her
two weeks ago.
400
00:20:06,304 --> 00:20:09,507
It's too late for us
to corroborate your report.
401
00:20:10,049 --> 00:20:11,778
Is my integrity
in question here?
402
00:20:11,778 --> 00:20:14,149
You have a history
of testifying in these cases.
403
00:20:14,149 --> 00:20:15,744
That'd be brought out in court.
404
00:20:15,744 --> 00:20:19,314
We'd like to have Samantha
examined by our psychiatrist.
405
00:20:19,993 --> 00:20:22,791
Dr. Stark has a Ph. D.
In child psychology.
406
00:20:23,229 --> 00:20:25,663
She has dedicated
her life to this.
407
00:20:26,098 --> 00:20:27,588
Is she not
a good enough expert?
408
00:20:27,588 --> 00:20:29,998
Nothing changes, does it?
A child is in danger
409
00:20:29,998 --> 00:20:32,059
you're refusing to protect her.
410
00:20:32,059 --> 00:20:33,468
I won't give her up.
411
00:20:33,468 --> 00:20:35,473
I'll go to jail
before she goes back to him.
412
00:20:35,473 --> 00:20:37,532
There is not enough evidence.
413
00:20:37,532 --> 00:20:38,735
It is as simple as that.
414
00:20:38,735 --> 00:20:42,405
Come on, Ben. Is this about
evidence, or is it visibility?
415
00:20:42,915 --> 00:20:44,405
Sexual abuse.
416
00:20:44,683 --> 00:20:46,344
Public figure.
417
00:20:46,344 --> 00:20:49,148
It scares the hell
out of you, doesn't it?
418
00:20:49,148 --> 00:20:51,848
You guys are supposed to be
the white knights.
419
00:20:51,848 --> 00:20:53,322
Look, you tell Schiff
420
00:20:53,322 --> 00:20:55,450
I'd like charges filed today
421
00:20:55,450 --> 00:20:57,653
or I'll make sure
his amour gets real tarnished
422
00:20:57,653 --> 00:20:59,889
on the front pages tomorrow.
423
00:21:02,033 --> 00:21:04,297
Mr. Preston is threatening me?
424
00:21:04,635 --> 00:21:05,624
Huh?
425
00:21:05,624 --> 00:21:07,364
Arrogance of the young.
426
00:21:07,364 --> 00:21:09,565
Good lawyer,
always on the right side.
427
00:21:09,565 --> 00:21:12,200
Which doesn't make
his client a saint.
428
00:21:13,377 --> 00:21:16,436
Wife sues for full custody,
doesn't get it.
429
00:21:17,380 --> 00:21:19,575
Sudden charge of molestation.
430
00:21:19,849 --> 00:21:21,510
Have we heard
that story before?
431
00:21:21,510 --> 00:21:22,882
I don't know, Adam.
432
00:21:22,882 --> 00:21:25,547
Showering with the kid,
sleeping nude.
433
00:21:25,789 --> 00:21:28,087
My grandson
plays Little League.
434
00:21:28,458 --> 00:21:31,256
I tell him, "Go get 'em,
tiger," I pat him on the can,
435
00:21:31,256 --> 00:21:33,262
and you'd haul me
away in leg irons.
436
00:21:33,262 --> 00:21:35,059
A medical report,
the psychologist,
437
00:21:35,059 --> 00:21:36,621
you don't wanna believe
any of it?
438
00:21:36,621 --> 00:21:38,098
It doesn't matter
what I believe.
439
00:21:38,098 --> 00:21:39,896
The man has no history of this.
440
00:21:39,896 --> 00:21:42,733
An accusation alone
could destroy his life.
441
00:21:42,733 --> 00:21:45,069
We pursue it, it doesn't stick,
442
00:21:45,069 --> 00:21:47,301
we end up with high-profile
egg on our face.
443
00:21:47,301 --> 00:21:49,640
There's gonna be high-profile
egg no matter what we do.
444
00:21:49,640 --> 00:21:51,612
We need corroboration.
445
00:21:51,947 --> 00:21:54,438
You get a court order
to examine the child.
446
00:21:54,438 --> 00:21:56,848
No corroboration,
no indictment.
447
00:21:59,154 --> 00:22:00,451
What does that do to Samantha?
448
00:22:00,451 --> 00:22:02,455
My client is concerned.
449
00:22:02,657 --> 00:22:04,921
The effect of
a psychiatric exam.
450
00:22:04,921 --> 00:22:06,654
We can't ignore the charge.
451
00:22:06,654 --> 00:22:09,060
Did you see the papers
when we got divorced?
452
00:22:09,060 --> 00:22:11,098
"Wife calls producer
selfish and brutal."
453
00:22:11,098 --> 00:22:12,826
She smeared me
all over the papers.
454
00:22:12,826 --> 00:22:14,663
And now you're helping her
do it again.
455
00:22:14,663 --> 00:22:17,364
And just because I'm in love
with my daughter's nanny
456
00:22:17,364 --> 00:22:19,303
does not make me
a child molester.
457
00:22:19,303 --> 00:22:20,966
We're fighting the court order.
458
00:22:20,966 --> 00:22:22,304
Insufficient grounds.
459
00:22:22,304 --> 00:22:23,935
Counselor,
we have a medical exam.
460
00:22:23,935 --> 00:22:26,241
Well, of course, you do.
I mean, whose doctor?
461
00:22:26,241 --> 00:22:28,804
I read about this Ramona
Stark. She's a nut.
462
00:22:28,804 --> 00:22:30,577
I mean, my wife
wants to destroy me
463
00:22:30,577 --> 00:22:32,915
and you'll ruin my...
my daughter's life.
464
00:22:32,915 --> 00:22:35,546
For what?
Public spectacle, page 6!
465
00:22:39,092 --> 00:22:41,560
Ramona Stark
as your prime witness?
466
00:22:41,995 --> 00:22:44,327
I wouldn't go to trial
with that.
467
00:22:48,335 --> 00:22:50,302
Who's Silver worried about?
468
00:22:50,302 --> 00:22:52,200
His daughter? Or himself?
469
00:22:52,200 --> 00:22:53,568
He may be right about Stark.
470
00:22:53,568 --> 00:22:57,234
So let's find out what other
cases she's been involved in.
471
00:22:58,611 --> 00:23:00,238
She's a saint.
472
00:23:00,238 --> 00:23:02,837
They should put a statue of
her in front of Family Court.
473
00:23:02,837 --> 00:23:04,007
Hmm.
474
00:23:04,984 --> 00:23:07,452
She testified for you
against your husband.
475
00:23:07,452 --> 00:23:09,215
And gave us a place to hide,
476
00:23:09,215 --> 00:23:11,722
until they put
that swine in jail.
477
00:23:12,924 --> 00:23:14,824
Did your child testify?
478
00:23:15,660 --> 00:23:17,287
She was very frightened.
479
00:23:17,287 --> 00:23:19,830
But, uh, Ramona helped her.
480
00:23:20,598 --> 00:23:22,361
By getting her ready
to testify.
481
00:23:22,361 --> 00:23:25,267
My daughter didn't invent it.
It happened.
482
00:23:25,837 --> 00:23:29,466
If Ramona helped her put it
into words, that's not a crime.
483
00:23:30,575 --> 00:23:32,566
The fact that
you're worried about Ramona,
484
00:23:32,566 --> 00:23:34,441
and not Gary Silver,
485
00:23:34,441 --> 00:23:37,638
proves you're part of the
problem, not the solution.
486
00:23:39,049 --> 00:23:41,074
I never had much faith
in divorce laws
487
00:23:41,074 --> 00:23:43,244
and nothing's happened
to change my mind.
488
00:23:43,244 --> 00:23:44,947
You lost custody of your son.
489
00:23:44,947 --> 00:23:46,614
You want a shotgun offence?
490
00:23:46,614 --> 00:23:48,123
I'll give you my ex-wife,
491
00:23:48,123 --> 00:23:50,717
her fleabag lawyer
and Ramona Stark.
492
00:23:50,717 --> 00:23:53,388
Now, you were charged with
molesting your son, Mr. Sanders.
493
00:23:53,388 --> 00:23:56,160
I was charged with it, but it
never went to trial, did it?
494
00:23:56,160 --> 00:23:57,257
I caved in.
495
00:23:57,257 --> 00:23:58,699
I gave my wife what she wanted.
496
00:23:58,699 --> 00:24:00,861
Suddenly she decides
not to testify.
497
00:24:00,861 --> 00:24:03,132
You people don't have a case.
498
00:24:03,806 --> 00:24:05,467
I never touched my son.
499
00:24:05,467 --> 00:24:07,372
But people are accused
all the time.
500
00:24:07,372 --> 00:24:08,910
They defend themselves.
501
00:24:10,179 --> 00:24:12,374
I sat in her lawyer's chair
502
00:24:12,374 --> 00:24:14,245
and I watched a tape.
503
00:24:14,245 --> 00:24:17,616
My little boy saying that
I put my hand on his "dupe."
504
00:24:17,616 --> 00:24:19,382
I knew I was dead.
505
00:24:19,922 --> 00:24:22,152
I haven't seen him since.
506
00:24:22,152 --> 00:24:24,385
$1,100 child support.
507
00:24:25,060 --> 00:24:27,221
I don't even get visitation.
508
00:24:28,663 --> 00:24:29,789
And what does that prove?
509
00:24:29,789 --> 00:24:31,093
She's a busy lady.
510
00:24:31,093 --> 00:24:32,497
We got a Chinese menu here.
511
00:24:32,497 --> 00:24:35,536
Column A, she's the savior
of all molested children.
512
00:24:35,536 --> 00:24:38,505
Column B, she scares innocent
men into giving up their kids.
513
00:24:38,505 --> 00:24:39,870
Silver's lawyer is right.
514
00:24:39,870 --> 00:24:43,035
With Stark's history, we put her on
the stand they'll eat her for lunch.
515
00:24:43,035 --> 00:24:45,375
We don't put her on the stand,
they will.
516
00:24:48,616 --> 00:24:50,140
Paul Robinette.
517
00:24:50,451 --> 00:24:51,713
Hmm-mmm.
518
00:24:52,119 --> 00:24:53,313
Thanks.
519
00:24:53,988 --> 00:24:55,080
We got the order.
520
00:24:55,080 --> 00:24:57,317
Olivet sees Samantha Silver
in the morning.
521
00:24:57,317 --> 00:24:58,517
Good.
522
00:25:02,463 --> 00:25:04,727
What are your favorite pets,
Samantha?
523
00:25:04,727 --> 00:25:07,131
Mommy tells me
you like puppies.
524
00:25:07,768 --> 00:25:10,066
Sometimes Brown Dog barks.
525
00:25:10,437 --> 00:25:12,734
You can't hear it.
But I can.
526
00:25:13,506 --> 00:25:15,667
What's Brown Dog barking at?
527
00:25:16,609 --> 00:25:17,871
Secrets.
528
00:25:20,547 --> 00:25:22,174
That's very good.
529
00:25:22,174 --> 00:25:23,681
I have an idea.
530
00:25:23,681 --> 00:25:26,742
Why don't we draw a picture
of your family?
531
00:25:44,303 --> 00:25:45,668
Who's that?
532
00:25:45,904 --> 00:25:46,928
Mommy.
533
00:25:46,928 --> 00:25:49,030
I need blue for her eyes.
534
00:25:54,112 --> 00:25:55,875
And what about you?
535
00:26:09,493 --> 00:26:10,926
That's fine.
536
00:26:11,896 --> 00:26:13,830
What's Daddy look like?
537
00:26:17,702 --> 00:26:19,966
It's okay. Go ahead.
538
00:26:35,485 --> 00:26:37,453
Remember what I told you about
539
00:26:37,453 --> 00:26:40,387
"good touches"
and "bad touches", Samantha?
540
00:26:41,124 --> 00:26:43,115
How did Daddy touch you?
541
00:26:48,464 --> 00:26:50,455
Whers Mommy coming back?
542
00:26:51,233 --> 00:26:53,030
She'll be here soon.
543
00:26:54,403 --> 00:26:56,268
Where did Daddy touch you?
Show me.
544
00:26:56,268 --> 00:26:59,068
Just draw a circle
where he touched you.
545
00:27:01,911 --> 00:27:04,038
I don't wanna talk anymore.
546
00:27:15,890 --> 00:27:18,085
Her behavior's
consistent with abuse.
547
00:27:18,085 --> 00:27:21,617
Avoidance, reluctance
to discuss details, guilt.
548
00:27:21,617 --> 00:27:24,130
I'm sure that's what
Ramona Stark reacted to.
549
00:27:24,130 --> 00:27:27,167
But she did not say
that her father molested her.
550
00:27:27,167 --> 00:27:28,827
Which doesn't mean
it didn't happen.
551
00:27:28,827 --> 00:27:30,632
What about the medical report?
552
00:27:30,632 --> 00:27:32,104
Do you agree with Jenner?
553
00:27:32,104 --> 00:27:34,436
If I'd seen her at the time,
I might be sure.
554
00:27:34,436 --> 00:27:35,497
Jenner says
555
00:27:35,497 --> 00:27:38,009
there's scarring near her
labia and she's not intact,
556
00:27:38,009 --> 00:27:39,511
but there are no
bacterial traces
557
00:27:39,511 --> 00:27:41,547
which you'd expect
with a recent abuse.
558
00:27:41,547 --> 00:27:45,051
Why does every word you say sound
like maybe and then maybe not?
559
00:27:45,051 --> 00:27:47,814
I think it happened.
But is it conclusive?
560
00:27:47,814 --> 00:27:49,480
Not to mention
that she's confused.
561
00:27:49,480 --> 00:27:51,490
Too much prompting
from Stark and her mother.
562
00:27:51,490 --> 00:27:53,185
She's not a terrific witness.
563
00:27:53,185 --> 00:27:54,454
This gets better every minute.
564
00:27:54,454 --> 00:27:57,793
What about the father? Does he
fit the portrait of a molester?
565
00:27:57,793 --> 00:28:00,696
Mid-50s, no prior record,
you wouldn't think so.
566
00:28:00,696 --> 00:28:02,597
Unless he's a "preferential."
567
00:28:02,597 --> 00:28:03,896
What's that?
568
00:28:03,896 --> 00:28:05,403
Only family members.
569
00:28:05,403 --> 00:28:07,496
Wasrt he married before?
570
00:28:07,496 --> 00:28:08,970
Twenty years ago.
571
00:28:08,970 --> 00:28:11,168
Did they have any children?
572
00:28:14,847 --> 00:28:17,441
The night I was born,
Hair opened on Broadway.
573
00:28:17,441 --> 00:28:19,780
Guess whose premiere
Daddy attended?
574
00:28:19,780 --> 00:28:22,115
Doesrt sound like
you've patched things up.
575
00:28:22,115 --> 00:28:23,347
Oh, as far as he's concerned,
576
00:28:23,347 --> 00:28:25,514
I'm a show that closed
on opening night.
577
00:28:25,514 --> 00:28:27,922
Anyhow, I moved out
when I was 7.
578
00:28:27,922 --> 00:28:30,789
Jesus Christ Superstar.
Mom's big break.
579
00:28:31,162 --> 00:28:33,289
Mary Magdalene sends me
to Grandma's in Greenwich
580
00:28:33,289 --> 00:28:34,593
for the length of the run.
581
00:28:34,593 --> 00:28:36,531
Grandma never sends me back.
582
00:28:36,531 --> 00:28:39,092
She hated him.
She still does.
583
00:28:39,092 --> 00:28:42,799
Maybe because Mom moved you
to Grandma's for other reasons.
584
00:28:43,408 --> 00:28:45,103
They say in families,
585
00:28:45,103 --> 00:28:47,700
it usually doesn't happen
only once.
586
00:28:48,979 --> 00:28:52,608
I suppose you've spoken with
your Dad in the last few days.
587
00:28:54,118 --> 00:28:57,349
Okay. There are some memories
that seem strange.
588
00:28:58,355 --> 00:29:00,585
I remember being alone in bed,
589
00:29:00,891 --> 00:29:03,724
and I'd hear their door open
down the hall
590
00:29:03,927 --> 00:29:06,418
and Daddy walking
towards my room.
591
00:29:08,465 --> 00:29:10,056
I'd wet the bed.
592
00:29:10,833 --> 00:29:12,664
I thought
that would protect me.
593
00:29:12,664 --> 00:29:14,635
Protect you from what?
594
00:29:15,271 --> 00:29:18,206
Look, I don't wanna talk
about this anymore.
595
00:29:21,844 --> 00:29:23,835
You absolutely convinced?
596
00:29:24,313 --> 00:29:26,304
Doesrt leave me
with any doubts.
597
00:29:26,304 --> 00:29:29,840
It's not showers and sleeping
in the same bed anymore, Adam.
598
00:29:29,840 --> 00:29:31,443
If he molested the first one,
599
00:29:31,443 --> 00:29:34,489
the chances of his not doing
it again are almost nil.
600
00:29:34,489 --> 00:29:36,922
I checked the older daughter's
new apartment.
601
00:29:36,922 --> 00:29:39,392
Silver paid for it,
closed 10 days ago.
602
00:29:39,392 --> 00:29:41,122
He bought her off.
603
00:29:41,122 --> 00:29:43,390
Useless without her testimony.
604
00:29:43,390 --> 00:29:45,023
What about his girlfriend?
605
00:29:45,023 --> 00:29:46,328
She's the child's nanny.
606
00:29:46,328 --> 00:29:48,392
His lawyer
won't let us near her.
607
00:29:48,392 --> 00:29:50,995
Your medical doctor
is questionable,
608
00:29:51,406 --> 00:29:53,499
this Ramona Stark is tainted.
609
00:29:53,499 --> 00:29:55,975
She makes Joan of Arc
look modest.
610
00:29:56,777 --> 00:29:59,507
The child is
a terrible witness.
611
00:30:00,081 --> 00:30:01,776
So you wanna plead him?
612
00:30:01,776 --> 00:30:04,147
He molested
his own child, Adam.
613
00:30:05,453 --> 00:30:07,478
Plead him. Sex abuse two.
614
00:30:08,155 --> 00:30:10,419
He won't do better from a jury.
615
00:30:10,991 --> 00:30:12,185
Sexual abuse two.
616
00:30:12,185 --> 00:30:15,285
Considering what he did,
it's a gift from God.
617
00:30:15,285 --> 00:30:17,557
I didn't do anything
to Samantha.
618
00:30:17,557 --> 00:30:19,895
What about your first daughter?
619
00:30:22,001 --> 00:30:23,491
Leslie's mother was,
620
00:30:23,491 --> 00:30:25,162
for years,
clinically depressed.
621
00:30:25,162 --> 00:30:27,297
Of course, Leslie has problems.
622
00:30:27,297 --> 00:30:28,431
My understanding is
623
00:30:28,431 --> 00:30:31,204
that Leslie has absolutely
nothing negative to say about me.
624
00:30:31,204 --> 00:30:33,006
Odd time
to buy her an apartment.
625
00:30:33,006 --> 00:30:34,706
Come on,
if you had anything new
626
00:30:34,706 --> 00:30:35,975
we wouldn't be here.
627
00:30:35,975 --> 00:30:38,574
Our psychiatrist says
Samantha was probably abused.
628
00:30:38,574 --> 00:30:40,312
Ten minutes with Ramona Stark,
629
00:30:40,312 --> 00:30:43,014
she'll accuse her father
of being a serial killer.
630
00:30:43,014 --> 00:30:44,817
My client
comes out of this clean
631
00:30:44,817 --> 00:30:46,653
or his life's over.
632
00:30:49,461 --> 00:30:51,292
I'll see you in court.
633
00:30:51,292 --> 00:30:52,990
You're bluffing.
634
00:30:56,101 --> 00:30:57,363
Let's go.
635
00:31:01,006 --> 00:31:02,803
You'll ruin my daughter's life.
636
00:31:02,803 --> 00:31:06,242
Mr. Silver, that process
was well underway before now.
637
00:31:06,612 --> 00:31:08,602
I'm glad you're so sure.
638
00:31:14,118 --> 00:31:17,246
What do you mean, the psychiatric
examinations aren't enough?
639
00:31:17,246 --> 00:31:18,913
You have all that.
640
00:31:18,913 --> 00:31:20,753
You have Miss Stark's report.
641
00:31:20,753 --> 00:31:24,522
I believe he did it, but we don't
have enough to convince a grand jury.
642
00:31:24,522 --> 00:31:25,857
What do you want?
643
00:31:25,857 --> 00:31:28,330
Do you think Gary's gonna
stand up and say he did it?
644
00:31:28,330 --> 00:31:30,799
7 million people
in New York are convinced.
645
00:31:30,799 --> 00:31:32,459
Go anywhere
and mention his name.
646
00:31:32,459 --> 00:31:35,266
Grand jury doesn't indict
by Gallup poll.
647
00:31:36,106 --> 00:31:38,438
David, let's give them
the tape.
648
00:31:41,945 --> 00:31:44,573
I've been around the law
enough to know
649
00:31:45,348 --> 00:31:47,339
one doesn't sit idly by.
650
00:31:50,620 --> 00:31:53,714
This takes it well beyond
any reasonable doubt.
651
00:31:57,259 --> 00:31:59,591
Do you miss your daddy?
652
00:32:01,964 --> 00:32:03,955
Don't you wanna see him?
653
00:32:06,101 --> 00:32:07,966
Did he ever touch you?
654
00:32:08,604 --> 00:32:10,128
Yes.
655
00:32:10,539 --> 00:32:12,666
Tell me, Samantha.
656
00:32:13,209 --> 00:32:15,541
It's bad
where Daddy touched me.
657
00:32:17,012 --> 00:32:18,775
Can you tell me why?
658
00:32:19,547 --> 00:32:20,809
Because.
659
00:32:22,517 --> 00:32:24,417
Can you show me where?
660
00:32:25,386 --> 00:32:26,478
Here.
661
00:32:28,223 --> 00:32:29,281
And?
662
00:32:29,857 --> 00:32:31,882
He made me touch him, too.
663
00:32:32,694 --> 00:32:34,286
Turn it off.
664
00:32:34,286 --> 00:32:36,523
Yup. Very convincing.
665
00:32:36,864 --> 00:32:38,354
If we had done it.
666
00:32:38,354 --> 00:32:40,162
It convinced the grand jury.
667
00:32:40,162 --> 00:32:43,226
Come on, even her mother's
lawyer knows it's trouble.
668
00:32:43,226 --> 00:32:45,032
Homemade evidence.
I don't like it.
669
00:32:45,032 --> 00:32:47,096
The courts like it less.
Who's your judge?
670
00:32:47,096 --> 00:32:48,471
Wally Schreiber.
671
00:32:48,471 --> 00:32:50,100
You expect to get this in?
672
00:32:50,100 --> 00:32:52,839
Schreiber thinks
the admissibility rules
673
00:32:52,839 --> 00:32:55,177
were made in Heaven,
not Albany.
674
00:32:55,177 --> 00:32:57,046
A mars own daughter.
675
00:32:57,851 --> 00:32:59,978
I hope there's an afterlife.
676
00:33:00,254 --> 00:33:03,223
For some crimes,
the penal law is inadequate.
677
00:33:06,393 --> 00:33:08,087
Mrs. Silver
had the tape made.
678
00:33:08,087 --> 00:33:10,958
She's a lunatic.
And so is Ramona Stark.
679
00:33:11,330 --> 00:33:14,128
Their state of mind does not
make the tape inadmissible.
680
00:33:14,128 --> 00:33:15,360
Doesrt it, Ben?
681
00:33:15,360 --> 00:33:17,595
We don't know what was said
before the tape was made.
682
00:33:17,595 --> 00:33:21,003
There's no reason to believe that
it wasrt spontaneous, Your Honor.
683
00:33:21,003 --> 00:33:24,099
About as spontaneous
as the Pledge of Allegiance.
684
00:33:24,099 --> 00:33:27,805
Your Honor, Dr. Olivet said the
child was subjected to trauma.
685
00:33:27,805 --> 00:33:30,246
Without that tape, we have
to put her on the stand.
686
00:33:30,246 --> 00:33:31,304
We don't wanna do that.
687
00:33:31,304 --> 00:33:33,112
How warm-hearted of you.
688
00:33:33,112 --> 00:33:34,674
The kid was coached, Judge.
689
00:33:34,674 --> 00:33:36,380
It's all made up,
every bit of it.
690
00:33:36,380 --> 00:33:38,615
Now, easy, Nick,
I read Olivet's report.
691
00:33:38,615 --> 00:33:40,988
It's not all made up.
Gentlemen.
692
00:33:42,394 --> 00:33:45,727
Ben, do you remember
a case in Rhode Island?
693
00:33:46,498 --> 00:33:49,092
Insulin, needles,
the lady in the coma?
694
00:33:49,092 --> 00:33:51,533
They go into the mars house,
take the black bag...
695
00:33:51,533 --> 00:33:52,865
Which was admitted as evidence.
696
00:33:52,865 --> 00:33:54,961
Yeah, in my view, a mistake.
697
00:33:54,961 --> 00:33:58,372
And the basis, I might add,
for a successful appeal.
698
00:33:59,043 --> 00:34:03,446
Now here, we have an out-of-court
statement and the witness is available.
699
00:34:04,715 --> 00:34:06,046
I can't allow the tape, Ben.
700
00:34:06,046 --> 00:34:07,845
Your Honor,
the interests of the child...
701
00:34:07,845 --> 00:34:10,478
Balanced by
the interests of justice.
702
00:34:10,478 --> 00:34:13,179
If the man did it,
then put him away
703
00:34:13,824 --> 00:34:16,349
but we have to have
the girl testify.
704
00:34:17,027 --> 00:34:19,517
I'll be glad to do it in chambers
with closed-circuit video,
705
00:34:19,517 --> 00:34:21,893
make it as painless
as possible.
706
00:34:21,893 --> 00:34:23,761
Think about it, hmm?
707
00:34:27,570 --> 00:34:30,471
Children have special ways
of telling us what happened.
708
00:34:30,471 --> 00:34:34,840
Please describe for the court what
you expect in cases of sexual abuse.
709
00:34:35,978 --> 00:34:38,208
Children who have been molested
710
00:34:38,208 --> 00:34:40,340
often cry when asked
about the incident.
711
00:34:40,340 --> 00:34:42,280
They show anger,
712
00:34:42,280 --> 00:34:44,581
fear and sadness
713
00:34:44,581 --> 00:34:46,746
and in almost all cases,
714
00:34:46,746 --> 00:34:48,983
the child is unwilling
to discuss
715
00:34:48,983 --> 00:34:51,651
the specific details
of what happened.
716
00:34:51,651 --> 00:34:52,989
In your expert opinion,
717
00:34:52,989 --> 00:34:55,689
does Samantha Silver
fit this profile?
718
00:34:55,931 --> 00:34:58,024
Yes, in virtually
every respect.
719
00:34:58,024 --> 00:35:00,193
And Dr. Stark, is it possible
720
00:35:00,193 --> 00:35:03,101
that the alleged sexual abuse
of Samantha Silver
721
00:35:03,101 --> 00:35:04,968
is totally invented?
722
00:35:04,968 --> 00:35:06,937
Oh, no, I don't think
that's possible.
723
00:35:06,937 --> 00:35:11,205
L... I can't tell you in
explicit detail what went on
724
00:35:12,079 --> 00:35:14,411
but something
certainly happened.
725
00:35:14,749 --> 00:35:15,977
Thank you.
726
00:35:15,977 --> 00:35:17,540
Your witness.
727
00:35:20,287 --> 00:35:22,016
Something happened.
728
00:35:22,590 --> 00:35:24,490
That's fairly vague, isn't it?
729
00:35:24,490 --> 00:35:27,220
I'm a psychologist,
not a psychiatrist.
730
00:35:27,220 --> 00:35:29,887
But none of this
is an exact science.
731
00:35:30,430 --> 00:35:33,729
The girl went through a serious
trauma concerning her father.
732
00:35:33,729 --> 00:35:35,791
That could mean anything.
733
00:35:35,791 --> 00:35:37,733
Can you state
with medical certainty
734
00:35:37,733 --> 00:35:39,772
that Gary Silver
molested his daughter?
735
00:35:39,772 --> 00:35:43,206
I can't say with certainty
the sun will rise tomorrow.
736
00:35:43,206 --> 00:35:45,574
But, yes,
short of absolute certainty,
737
00:35:45,574 --> 00:35:48,011
I think he molested
his daughter.
738
00:35:48,011 --> 00:35:49,103
You testified
739
00:35:49,103 --> 00:35:51,912
that Samantha Silver
had been subject to trauma
740
00:35:51,912 --> 00:35:53,781
involving her father.
741
00:35:54,153 --> 00:35:57,645
Could that include her mother
convincing her Daddy molested her?
742
00:35:57,645 --> 00:35:58,883
If you're suggesting
743
00:35:58,883 --> 00:36:01,585
that her mother planted
the accusation in her head,
744
00:36:01,585 --> 00:36:03,958
no, I don't believe
that's true.
745
00:36:05,164 --> 00:36:08,292
Suppose I find cereal spilled
on the kitchen floor.
746
00:36:08,292 --> 00:36:11,564
I ask my son, "Did you do
this?" What does he say?
747
00:36:11,837 --> 00:36:13,668
I don't know your son,
Mr. Teller.
748
00:36:13,668 --> 00:36:15,138
He'll lie, Dr. Stark,
749
00:36:15,138 --> 00:36:17,470
because he's afraid
Daddy will be angry.
750
00:36:17,470 --> 00:36:21,069
But if I say I won't be angry,
he'll admit it, won't he?
751
00:36:21,612 --> 00:36:22,738
Possibly.
752
00:36:22,738 --> 00:36:24,213
He will.
753
00:36:24,213 --> 00:36:26,512
Because he wants to please me.
754
00:36:26,851 --> 00:36:30,048
Now, Samantha Silver was
taken from a department store
755
00:36:30,048 --> 00:36:32,521
and held in
a strange environment.
756
00:36:33,257 --> 00:36:35,054
If she thought the only way out
757
00:36:35,054 --> 00:36:36,889
was to accuse Daddy
of bad things
758
00:36:36,889 --> 00:36:39,121
isn't it possible she'd lie?
759
00:36:39,897 --> 00:36:42,763
It's possible, yes,
but she didn't need to lie.
760
00:36:42,763 --> 00:36:45,097
She just told us what happened.
761
00:36:46,236 --> 00:36:48,568
I was naive
when I married Gary.
762
00:36:48,568 --> 00:36:50,503
I was his third wife.
763
00:36:51,074 --> 00:36:54,305
I thought I would be the
one to make him settle down.
764
00:36:54,305 --> 00:36:55,605
I was wrong.
765
00:36:55,605 --> 00:36:58,011
Well, what made you feel
you were wrong?
766
00:36:58,011 --> 00:37:02,040
I thought that Gary was
obsessed with Samantha,
767
00:37:03,053 --> 00:37:06,954
that he was using her to make up
for neglecting his first child.
768
00:37:07,389 --> 00:37:08,754
Lt... it,
769
00:37:08,754 --> 00:37:10,587
It seemed unnatural.
770
00:37:10,587 --> 00:37:12,286
In what way, Mrs. Silver?
771
00:37:12,286 --> 00:37:14,829
Objection.
This is all speculation.
772
00:37:15,097 --> 00:37:17,793
She can talk about
her own feelings, Counselor.
773
00:37:17,793 --> 00:37:19,994
Overruled.
774
00:37:20,369 --> 00:37:21,768
Mrs. Silver.
775
00:37:23,239 --> 00:37:24,467
He, uh,
776
00:37:25,307 --> 00:37:27,639
he wanted to take her
everywhere.
777
00:37:27,943 --> 00:37:31,503
He wouldn't let her out of
his sight, he was hugging her,
778
00:37:31,813 --> 00:37:33,974
picking her up all the time.
779
00:37:34,849 --> 00:37:36,749
It was too possessive.
780
00:37:37,151 --> 00:37:41,212
But why did you ask Ramona
Stark to help you hide Samantha?
781
00:37:41,890 --> 00:37:43,858
Samantha said
782
00:37:44,225 --> 00:37:47,991
that she was taking nude naps
with Gary and...
783
00:37:48,897 --> 00:37:50,489
Well,
784
00:37:50,489 --> 00:37:52,998
the nanny, his girlfriend.
785
00:37:54,935 --> 00:37:57,165
I, uh, I tried to ask
786
00:37:58,939 --> 00:38:01,134
if anything else was going on
787
00:38:01,775 --> 00:38:03,640
but, uh, I scared her.
788
00:38:13,220 --> 00:38:16,382
I didn't... I didn't know
how to ask the question.
789
00:38:18,057 --> 00:38:20,082
It was... it was so ugly.
790
00:38:21,460 --> 00:38:22,518
My...
791
00:38:22,929 --> 00:38:26,456
My attorney said that Ramona
Stark would know how to ask.
792
00:38:26,899 --> 00:38:29,834
Fine, thank you,
no further questions.
793
00:38:32,605 --> 00:38:33,833
So, uh,
794
00:38:35,374 --> 00:38:38,741
you couldn't talk to your
own daughter, is that right?
795
00:38:39,911 --> 00:38:42,379
I didn't know if...
if my suspicions were right.
796
00:38:42,379 --> 00:38:44,574
L... I needed a professional.
797
00:38:44,574 --> 00:38:45,909
Oh, so you did think
798
00:38:45,909 --> 00:38:48,043
your husband
had done something wrong?
799
00:38:49,187 --> 00:38:50,711
Look, I... I didn't know.
800
00:38:50,711 --> 00:38:52,518
Or was it just
that you were jealous
801
00:38:52,518 --> 00:38:55,025
because he abandoned you
for a younger woman?
802
00:38:55,025 --> 00:38:56,856
I was worried, okay?
803
00:38:57,128 --> 00:38:59,062
I'm... I'm allowed
to be worried.
804
00:38:59,062 --> 00:39:00,324
Of course, you are.
805
00:39:00,324 --> 00:39:02,764
But you are not allowed to
brainwash your own daughter.
806
00:39:02,764 --> 00:39:03,857
Objection.
807
00:39:03,857 --> 00:39:06,266
We... we didn't brainwash her,
for God's sake.
808
00:39:06,266 --> 00:39:07,929
We got a doctor.
809
00:39:14,845 --> 00:39:18,178
I'm a pediatrician with a
subspecialty in internal medicine.
810
00:39:18,178 --> 00:39:20,148
Have you consulted
on other cases
811
00:39:20,148 --> 00:39:22,617
involving the sexual abuse
of children?
812
00:39:22,617 --> 00:39:26,053
I volunteer my services for the
Abused Childrers Defense League.
813
00:39:26,053 --> 00:39:28,215
I'm on call at no charge.
814
00:39:28,215 --> 00:39:29,656
Now please tell the court
815
00:39:29,656 --> 00:39:33,457
the results of your physical
examination of Samantha Silver.
816
00:39:34,163 --> 00:39:36,631
I found scarring
and bruising on the labia,
817
00:39:36,631 --> 00:39:38,496
and the hymen
had been ruptured.
818
00:39:38,496 --> 00:39:40,627
And what did you
conclude from that?
819
00:39:40,627 --> 00:39:43,536
These were unusual conditions
for a child of her age.
820
00:39:43,536 --> 00:39:45,574
I concluded that
Samantha Silver
821
00:39:45,574 --> 00:39:48,770
had, in some way,
been sexually abused.
822
00:39:49,846 --> 00:39:51,176
Thank you.
823
00:39:56,385 --> 00:39:57,784
Dr. Jenner,
824
00:39:59,554 --> 00:40:03,285
could the conditions you describe
be caused by anything else?
825
00:40:04,192 --> 00:40:05,420
I don't think so.
826
00:40:05,420 --> 00:40:08,486
Now, you say you work on
these cases at no charge.
827
00:40:08,486 --> 00:40:10,724
In fact,
don't you make it a career?
828
00:40:11,867 --> 00:40:14,665
I have a thriving
pediatric practice, sir.
829
00:40:15,102 --> 00:40:17,502
How many of these cases
have you testified in?
830
00:40:17,502 --> 00:40:18,936
Twenty-two.
831
00:40:18,936 --> 00:40:20,506
Very impressive.
832
00:40:20,506 --> 00:40:23,008
Have you testified
for a defendant?
833
00:40:23,210 --> 00:40:25,144
In all the cases
that I've worked on,
834
00:40:25,144 --> 00:40:26,679
the defendants were guilty.
835
00:40:26,679 --> 00:40:27,941
Really?
836
00:40:30,184 --> 00:40:32,482
How many of them
were acquitted?
837
00:40:36,223 --> 00:40:37,247
Thirteen.
838
00:40:37,247 --> 00:40:39,484
Didrt you say
they were all guilty?
839
00:40:39,484 --> 00:40:40,685
They were.
840
00:40:40,685 --> 00:40:43,228
Not in the eyes
of the law, Doctor.
841
00:40:43,563 --> 00:40:45,394
No further questions.
842
00:40:48,234 --> 00:40:49,360
Don't have any choice.
843
00:40:49,360 --> 00:40:51,301
She's a confused,
frightened little girl.
844
00:40:51,301 --> 00:40:53,168
I don't know
how she'll do on the stand.
845
00:40:53,168 --> 00:40:55,264
If we can get her to say
what she said to Stark...
846
00:40:55,264 --> 00:40:56,808
She's talked to
too many people.
847
00:40:56,808 --> 00:40:58,605
She can't remember
what happened.
848
00:40:58,605 --> 00:41:01,613
Olivet prepped her six times.
Six different answers.
849
00:41:01,613 --> 00:41:04,342
We don't put her on, the jury's
gonna wonder what we're hiding.
850
00:41:04,342 --> 00:41:07,078
The wife and...
What's her name, Stark?
851
00:41:08,220 --> 00:41:09,278
Yeah, the two of them
852
00:41:09,278 --> 00:41:12,653
tied your hands behind your
back and then asked you to swim.
853
00:41:12,653 --> 00:41:15,990
And they sullied every
piece of testimony we needed.
854
00:41:16,195 --> 00:41:19,221
Not to mention the wife
looked jealous on the stand
855
00:41:19,221 --> 00:41:20,731
and that doctor...
856
00:41:20,731 --> 00:41:22,994
He defined the word "zealot."
857
00:41:25,003 --> 00:41:29,268
The child's gonna have to talk to
the jury and tell them what happened.
858
00:41:33,044 --> 00:41:36,138
People always
wanna talk about Daddy.
859
00:41:36,380 --> 00:41:37,369
We'd like to know
860
00:41:37,369 --> 00:41:39,313
a few things
that your daddy did.
861
00:41:39,951 --> 00:41:41,851
You mean the bad things?
862
00:41:41,851 --> 00:41:43,409
That's right.
863
00:41:46,457 --> 00:41:48,448
Why should I talk to you?
864
00:41:48,893 --> 00:41:50,019
We wanna make sure
865
00:41:50,019 --> 00:41:53,221
that your daddy doesn't do
the bad things again.
866
00:41:54,664 --> 00:41:57,497
Mommy says you're going
to put him in jail.
867
00:41:57,801 --> 00:42:00,599
Why do you think
your mommy would say that?
868
00:42:00,599 --> 00:42:04,037
Because I told her it was bad
where Daddy touched me.
869
00:42:04,641 --> 00:42:06,973
And how many times
did he touch you?
870
00:42:06,973 --> 00:42:09,273
Ramona said he did it a lot.
871
00:42:10,514 --> 00:42:12,141
She's real mad, too.
872
00:42:12,141 --> 00:42:14,148
Now what Ramona
says doesn't matter.
873
00:42:14,148 --> 00:42:16,650
What matters
is what you remember.
874
00:42:16,650 --> 00:42:18,049
I told you.
875
00:42:18,049 --> 00:42:21,749
Daddy touched me, and Ramona
and Mommy said he's bad.
876
00:42:21,749 --> 00:42:23,314
Aside from touching you,
877
00:42:23,314 --> 00:42:26,793
what are some of the other
things that your daddy did?
878
00:42:30,199 --> 00:42:32,133
I don't know
what I'm supposed to say.
879
00:42:32,133 --> 00:42:33,498
I forgot.
880
00:42:33,936 --> 00:42:35,767
Samantha, thank you.
881
00:42:36,238 --> 00:42:38,467
Thank you
for talking with us.
882
00:42:39,374 --> 00:42:42,605
Samantha, do you have
puzzles like that at home?
883
00:42:44,412 --> 00:42:46,607
I have bigger ones in my room.
884
00:42:47,015 --> 00:42:48,915
At your daddy's house?
885
00:42:52,620 --> 00:42:55,248
I have a big room
next to Christina's.
886
00:42:55,490 --> 00:42:57,321
Does Daddy do puzzles
with you?
887
00:42:57,321 --> 00:42:59,587
Daddy doesn't like puzzles.
888
00:42:59,587 --> 00:43:01,253
We watch movies.
889
00:43:02,596 --> 00:43:05,326
You love your Daddy,
don't you, Samantha?
890
00:43:08,936 --> 00:43:10,961
You don't wanna see him
go to jail, do you?
891
00:43:11,738 --> 00:43:12,727
Your Honor?
892
00:43:12,727 --> 00:43:15,673
Let's back away from that,
Mr. Teller. Hmm?
893
00:43:17,444 --> 00:43:21,107
Has your daddy
done anything to you
894
00:43:21,415 --> 00:43:23,645
that you think
he should be punished for?
895
00:43:23,645 --> 00:43:26,514
Mommy says Daddy won't
let me go to France.
896
00:43:27,653 --> 00:43:29,587
He won't let you go to France?
897
00:43:30,056 --> 00:43:32,217
To live with Mommy
and her boyfriend,
898
00:43:32,217 --> 00:43:34,054
where I can have a pony.
899
00:43:37,029 --> 00:43:38,724
No more questions.
900
00:43:42,101 --> 00:43:43,932
You wanted to leave
the country.
901
00:43:43,932 --> 00:43:46,699
To do that you needed
full custody, right?
902
00:43:46,699 --> 00:43:49,763
I wanted to protect her from her
father. What's wrong with that?
903
00:43:49,763 --> 00:43:51,900
What is wrong is that
a jury can now be persuaded
904
00:43:51,900 --> 00:43:54,138
that you wanted full custody
for other reasons.
905
00:43:54,138 --> 00:43:56,043
You withheld
crucial information.
906
00:43:56,043 --> 00:43:57,843
That doesn't change
what happened.
907
00:43:57,843 --> 00:43:59,474
In a jury's mind it might.
908
00:43:59,474 --> 00:44:01,644
Are you saying
Mrs. Silver lied?
909
00:44:01,644 --> 00:44:05,656
No, what I'm saying is that the
clarity of the case rests on Samantha,
910
00:44:05,656 --> 00:44:08,318
and your client and Mrs. Stark
had other agendas.
911
00:44:08,318 --> 00:44:11,157
They've so muddied the water I
don't know what a jury'll believe.
912
00:44:11,157 --> 00:44:13,219
We wanted to protect the child.
913
00:44:13,219 --> 00:44:14,821
You put so many ideas
in her head
914
00:44:14,821 --> 00:44:16,628
she can't tell us
anything clearly.
915
00:44:16,628 --> 00:44:19,726
When... when Samantha told me
about the showers,
916
00:44:19,726 --> 00:44:22,805
and that... that...
that girl naked in the house,
917
00:44:23,007 --> 00:44:25,032
what was I supposed to do?
918
00:44:25,032 --> 00:44:27,270
Samantha was mixed up today.
919
00:44:27,912 --> 00:44:30,346
The jury knows
what the father did.
920
00:44:33,250 --> 00:44:34,979
I hope you're right.
921
00:44:39,222 --> 00:44:41,417
Has the jury reached a verdict?
922
00:44:41,417 --> 00:44:43,322
Yes, we have, Your Honor.
923
00:44:43,322 --> 00:44:44,917
On the sole count
of the indictment,
924
00:44:44,917 --> 00:44:47,428
the charge of sexual abuse
in the first degree,
925
00:44:47,428 --> 00:44:49,124
how does the jury find?
926
00:44:49,124 --> 00:44:52,793
We find the defendant
not guilty.
927
00:44:53,002 --> 00:44:54,060
No.
928
00:45:48,088 --> 00:45:49,555
The girl is gone.
929
00:45:49,555 --> 00:45:52,056
And Janet Silver
refuses to say where she is.
930
00:45:52,056 --> 00:45:53,524
She'll have to
produce the child.
931
00:45:53,524 --> 00:45:55,060
The husband has a court order.
932
00:45:55,060 --> 00:45:57,653
And now I've got to make
a victim out of the mother.
933
00:45:57,653 --> 00:45:59,699
She's the one going to jail.
934
00:45:59,699 --> 00:46:01,859
I only see one victim here.
935
00:46:01,859 --> 00:46:04,062
And she's only 7 years old.
