1
00:00:18,860 --> 00:00:21,655
First day of law school,
my professor says two things.

2
00:00:21,863 --> 00:00:24,866
First, "From now on, when
your mother says she loves you,"

3
00:00:25,075 --> 00:00:27,828
- "get a second opinion."
- And?

4
00:00:28,036 --> 00:00:32,249
"You want justice, go to a whorehouse.
Wanna get fucked, go to court."

5
00:00:32,708 --> 00:00:34,042
Naomi!

6
00:00:34,251 --> 00:00:35,794
Let's say you have a client
you know is guilty.

7
00:00:36,003 --> 00:00:40,090
No. Neither our justice system
nor I care about that.

8
00:00:40,299 --> 00:00:42,885
Every defendant,
regardless of what he's done,

9
00:00:43,093 --> 00:00:45,429
has the right to the best defence
his attorney can provide.

10
00:00:45,637 --> 00:00:50,976
- Where were you with the truth?
- Truth? How do you mean?

11
00:00:51,602 --> 00:00:53,020
Naomi!

12
00:00:53,228 --> 00:00:56,106
I'm not sure how many ways
there are to mean it.

13
00:00:56,315 --> 00:00:59,234
- You think there's only one?
- You're late.

14
00:01:00,819 --> 00:01:04,573
- There's only one that matters.
- Marty, hold still.

15
00:01:04,781 --> 00:01:09,536
My version of it. The one I create
in the minds of the twelve jurors.

16
00:01:09,745 --> 00:01:14,124
If you want, you can call it
something else. The illusion of truth.

17
00:01:14,708 --> 00:01:17,044
- If you want. It's up to you.
- OK.

18
00:01:20,130 --> 00:01:23,091
Jack, you need more?
Tomorrow afternoon?

19
00:01:23,300 --> 00:01:26,637
- Yeah.
- I'll have my secretary set it up.

20
00:01:26,845 --> 00:01:28,222
OK.

21
00:01:33,101 --> 00:01:35,020
- This is a cover story, right?
- Yeah.

22
00:01:35,229 --> 00:01:35,854
Yeah. OK, bye.

23
00:03:41,396 --> 00:03:46,026
St. Michael's Boys Choir, thank you.
A very talented group.

24
00:03:46,777 --> 00:03:49,655
Right now, we're gonna have
a brief photo session

25
00:03:49,863 --> 00:03:52,241
while we have the boys here
with His Excellency.

26
00:03:52,449 --> 00:03:57,913
I'll be back in a few minutes. Bear with
us, enjoy your dessert and thank you.

27
00:04:11,218 --> 00:04:13,387
Mangia, mangia.

28
00:04:22,646 --> 00:04:25,691
Thanks. Marty!
What an unexpected surprise.

29
00:04:25,899 --> 00:04:28,360
I'm here to help our friendly prosecutor
off the hook.

30
00:04:28,569 --> 00:04:31,488
- Excuse me.
- What's it gonna cost?

31
00:04:31,697 --> 00:04:34,616
A lot less than the alternative.

32
00:04:34,825 --> 00:04:38,036
Tomorrow. My office. 9:30.

33
00:04:39,329 --> 00:04:42,833
- Is this on? Yes, it is.
- Nice to see you again.

34
00:04:43,041 --> 00:04:47,838
We have come to the heart of
the matter. Why we're here tonight.

35
00:04:48,046 --> 00:04:50,799
It's the fifth straight year
it's been my privilege

36
00:04:51,008 --> 00:04:55,387
to serve as master of ceremony
for the Chicago Bar Association...

37
00:04:55,596 --> 00:05:00,267
- I'm afraid you'll have to put that out.
- It's a bar for Christ's sake.

38
00:05:07,441 --> 00:05:09,568
I thought you quit.

39
00:05:09,776 --> 00:05:11,904
I cut down.

40
00:05:13,196 --> 00:05:16,491
You look beautiful. Cut your hair?

41
00:05:16,700 --> 00:05:18,577
Yeah, a few months ago.

42
00:05:20,829 --> 00:05:23,373
Wanna dance?

43
00:05:23,582 --> 00:05:27,461
- There isn't any music.
- I'm sure there is.

44
00:05:39,723 --> 00:05:41,475
Thank you, ladies and gentlemen...

45
00:05:43,310 --> 00:05:45,020
All you have to do is turn around.

46
00:05:45,229 --> 00:05:47,189
I thought you liked it better like this.

47
00:05:47,397 --> 00:05:50,025
That way you don't have
to look at the person.

48
00:05:50,234 --> 00:05:51,777
Mean.

49
00:05:53,695 --> 00:05:55,530
Look at me.

50
00:05:59,409 --> 00:06:02,955
Come on. Let's go find a bar
you can still smoke in.

51
00:06:03,163 --> 00:06:06,917
Thanks for the invite, but I don't like
one-night stands all that much.

52
00:06:08,335 --> 00:06:10,754
We saw each other for months.

53
00:06:10,963 --> 00:06:16,426
It was a one-night stand, Marty.
It just lasted six months.

54
00:06:28,063 --> 00:06:33,235
Well, I must say I haven't seen
this many lawyers and politicians

55
00:06:33,443 --> 00:06:37,614
gathered together in one place
since confession this morning.

56
00:06:48,625 --> 00:06:51,962
There is no way the People
will tolerate a monetary award

57
00:06:52,170 --> 00:06:55,090
to a cockroach
who deserves twenty-to-life.

58
00:06:55,299 --> 00:06:59,261
He may be your client, but Joey Pinero
was a hard-case felon.

59
00:06:59,469 --> 00:07:03,807
- Dealing, racketeering, money...
- Did you say "alleged", Yancy?

60
00:07:04,016 --> 00:07:06,226
Did you hear him say "alleged"?

61
00:07:06,435 --> 00:07:08,729
Mr Pinero has never
been convicted of anything.

62
00:07:08,937 --> 00:07:12,566
The cops left him bleeding in the snow.
A miracle he survived.

63
00:07:12,774 --> 00:07:17,112
Having said that,
I'm not opposed to a settlement.

64
00:07:18,113 --> 00:07:21,325
1 ,500,000 and Pinero leaves the state.

65
00:07:26,413 --> 00:07:28,999
You can't limit a citizen's right
to live where he wants to.

66
00:07:29,207 --> 00:07:30,584
Legally, that's unenforceable.

67
00:07:30,792 --> 00:07:33,754
Enforceable or just
a gentleman's agreement,

68
00:07:33,962 --> 00:07:35,964
Mr Pinero will know what we want.

69
00:07:39,593 --> 00:07:43,180
Get the answer you're looking for,
don't sit around and chat. A pleasure.

70
00:07:43,805 --> 00:07:45,974
You're worse
than the thugs you represent.

71
00:07:46,183 --> 00:07:49,019
- That's enough, Bud. It's over.
- I have to run this by him.

72
00:07:49,228 --> 00:07:53,690
You're on a 40% commission. I'm sure
your recommendation will prevail.

73
00:07:54,942 --> 00:07:56,443
Thank you, John.

74
00:08:55,711 --> 00:08:57,045
Oh, Jesus.

75
00:10:01,151 --> 00:10:03,320
- Hey, Mr Vail.
- How are you doing?

76
00:10:13,914 --> 00:10:15,249
Buena.

77
00:10:17,918 --> 00:10:19,503
Nice tune.

78
00:10:20,921 --> 00:10:24,216
- Traeme dos tequilas por aqui.
- Bien, m'hijito.

79
00:10:26,134 --> 00:10:28,345
So, what did they say?

80
00:10:28,554 --> 00:10:33,892
A take-it-or-leave-it offer of 1 ,500,000.
From Shaughnessy himself.

81
00:10:35,310 --> 00:10:37,521
What do you think?

82
00:10:39,690 --> 00:10:44,069
We should take it. Unless you wanna
spend two years in appellate court.

83
00:10:44,278 --> 00:10:47,864
- No, fuck that. Close it.
- Done.

84
00:10:50,409 --> 00:10:52,619
- OK.
- Gracias.

85
00:10:52,828 --> 00:10:55,205
- Salud.
- Salud.

86
00:10:58,834 --> 00:11:00,919
- Mia?
- Your shot.

87
00:11:02,296 --> 00:11:05,299
There's one more little thing.

88
00:11:06,550 --> 00:11:08,844
They want you to leave the state.

89
00:11:09,970 --> 00:11:14,975
- They want you to disappear.
- Disappear?

90
00:11:15,183 --> 00:11:17,269
That's good. Same bullshit, right?

91
00:11:18,103 --> 00:11:20,814
What? What are you talking about?

92
00:11:22,774 --> 00:11:25,777
I keep getting these offers
from these guys, Marty.

93
00:11:25,986 --> 00:11:27,487
What offers?

94
00:11:27,696 --> 00:11:32,409
A couple of months ago
a cop walks in here. He says,

95
00:11:32,618 --> 00:11:37,372
"You testify against Alderman
Martinez, and we'll owe you, Joey."

96
00:11:37,581 --> 00:11:41,543
Say he did you favours,
say he's on your payroll.

97
00:11:41,752 --> 00:11:45,380
So I tell him to go fuck himself.
Martinez is a good man.

98
00:11:45,589 --> 00:11:46,965
He's the one holding out

99
00:11:47,174 --> 00:11:50,344
while the others try to turn South River
into high-rent condos.

100
00:11:50,802 --> 00:11:54,181
- Why didn't you tell me this before?
- Why?

101
00:11:54,389 --> 00:11:56,225
'Cause this shit happens every day.

102
00:11:56,433 --> 00:11:58,518
I didn't think
it had anything to do with this.

103
00:11:58,727 --> 00:12:01,188
- You don't.
- I've spent a lot of money here.

104
00:12:01,396 --> 00:12:03,440
- They spent more.
- I built a clinic here.

105
00:12:03,649 --> 00:12:05,108
These people depend on me.

106
00:12:05,317 --> 00:12:08,403
I don't give a shit.
Send them cheques from California.

107
00:12:13,242 --> 00:12:16,703
Chucho, hazme el favor,
scame el CD.

108
00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:21,833
I respect your advice, Marty,
but I can't take it.

109
00:12:22,042 --> 00:12:26,880
- I'll take the money, but I ain't going.
- I don't like it, Joey.

110
00:12:27,089 --> 00:12:31,009
Chucho, dame.
So, what are they gonna do? Kill me?

111
00:12:31,218 --> 00:12:33,512
They've tried once.

112
00:12:33,720 --> 00:12:36,723
How are they gonna kill
a man who never sleeps?

113
00:12:36,932 --> 00:12:39,560
- Get the money.
- You're too much.

114
00:12:41,103 --> 00:12:44,064
That song you liked, fourth cut.

115
00:12:45,148 --> 00:12:46,858
Very nice, thank you.

116
00:13:08,589 --> 00:13:10,215
Police'll have their hands full...

117
00:13:10,424 --> 00:13:14,261
- Captain, can you tell us anything?
- I don't know anything.

118
00:13:14,469 --> 00:13:16,597
Captain Stenner, what's going on?

119
00:13:16,805 --> 00:13:20,976
I haven't seen anything yet. As soon
as I've been inside, I'll tell you.

120
00:13:41,038 --> 00:13:44,041
You should be home in bed, Abel.
It's going around.

121
00:13:44,249 --> 00:13:46,376
I'll consider that, Harvey.

122
00:13:50,339 --> 00:13:53,717
Christ. What a mess, huh?.

123
00:14:12,694 --> 00:14:16,240
- Sam, you got all you need?
- Roll him over.

124
00:14:28,001 --> 00:14:30,045
Hey, stop!

125
00:14:30,837 --> 00:14:33,048
Four fingers severed.

126
00:14:33,257 --> 00:14:39,763
A symbol, B 32.1 56,
is carved into the chest.

127
00:14:46,353 --> 00:14:48,855
Body temperature is still warm...

128
00:14:49,064 --> 00:14:51,733
Captain, we've got
a live one on the run.

129
00:15:13,755 --> 00:15:16,216
A passing train has separated
the suspect...

130
00:15:16,425 --> 00:15:18,594
You want to know what I hate?

131
00:15:18,802 --> 00:15:23,682
When they go on and on about what
big whores defence attorneys are.

132
00:15:23,891 --> 00:15:26,268
We're the bad guys? You know why?

133
00:15:26,476 --> 00:15:29,396
We sit next to some creep,
we start to look creepy.

134
00:15:29,605 --> 00:15:33,275
They assume they're guilty,
like we know it or something.

135
00:15:33,483 --> 00:15:38,155
You don't know, you don't ask,
you don't care. You do the damn job.

136
00:15:38,363 --> 00:15:41,366
It's not like they're your friends
for Christ's sake.

137
00:15:42,618 --> 00:15:45,245
Well, some are your friends, but...

138
00:15:55,464 --> 00:15:57,966
Why did you leave
the State Attorney's office?

139
00:15:58,175 --> 00:15:59,885
Dead-end job.

140
00:16:01,720 --> 00:16:06,725
You can either run for office
or end up a judge.

141
00:16:06,934 --> 00:16:09,561
Why become an umpire
when you can play ball?

142
00:16:09,770 --> 00:16:13,482
...around St. Michael's
and the Archbishop's mansion...

143
00:16:31,667 --> 00:16:34,294
Over here! He's over here!

144
00:16:39,549 --> 00:16:44,012
We will of course stay with this story
as it continues to unfold.

145
00:16:44,221 --> 00:16:48,642
What we do know is that
approx. 1 1:08 this morning...

146
00:16:48,850 --> 00:16:51,770
So when did you know you had them?

147
00:16:54,439 --> 00:16:55,899
What? Sorry?

148
00:16:56,108 --> 00:17:01,029
When during the Pinero trial did you
say to yourself, "I've got them"?

149
00:17:01,238 --> 00:17:03,240
The day I took the case. Excuse me.

150
00:17:03,448 --> 00:17:07,452
The shocking murder of one
of Chicago's most beloved figures,

151
00:17:07,661 --> 00:17:11,331
Archbishop Richard Rushman,
has left the cityjust numb.

152
00:17:11,540 --> 00:17:13,500
I understand we have Andy live.

153
00:17:13,709 --> 00:17:17,796
We havejust learned the police
have arrested a 19-year-old man

154
00:17:18,005 --> 00:17:21,758
identified as Aaron Stampler.
According to Captain Stenner...

155
00:17:21,967 --> 00:17:25,971
We have to reschedule.
Call my office, OK? I'm sorry.

156
00:17:33,562 --> 00:17:37,190
- Law offices of Martin Vail.
- You got the news on by any chance?

157
00:17:37,399 --> 00:17:39,943
Call Sullivan in Judge Trutter's office.

158
00:17:40,152 --> 00:17:42,529
Find out where he is,
and call me at the Alibi.

159
00:17:42,738 --> 00:17:44,448
- A lot ofguys'll want this one.
- OK.

160
00:17:46,658 --> 00:17:50,078
The police have taken the first steps,
acting with speed, with the arrest.

161
00:18:11,141 --> 00:18:15,646
- Are you taking the Stampler case?
- I'm sorry, I can't talk right now.

162
00:18:21,818 --> 00:18:24,529
- State Attorney left yet?
- Yeah, Yancy no less.

163
00:18:24,738 --> 00:18:26,323
- PD?
- Come and gone.

164
00:18:26,531 --> 00:18:28,283
Lock up!

165
00:18:28,492 --> 00:18:31,870
- Give my best to your brother.
- Yeah, sure.

166
00:18:33,413 --> 00:18:35,457
I'd like to see him alone if I could.

167
00:18:35,666 --> 00:18:38,835
- All right, but I'll have to lock you in.
- Understood.

168
00:19:06,905 --> 00:19:09,116
You know who I am?

169
00:19:10,993 --> 00:19:13,787
No, no, sir. No, I don't.

170
00:19:13,996 --> 00:19:18,667
My name is Martin Vail.
I'm what you call a big-shot attorney.

171
00:19:19,376 --> 00:19:23,964
-I don't... I don't have no money.
- I didn't think you did.

172
00:19:24,172 --> 00:19:26,717
I'm willing to take
your case pro bono,

173
00:19:26,925 --> 00:19:30,762
which means you get all of
my expertise and hard work for free.

174
00:19:32,222 --> 00:19:36,935
Or you can get the 40,000-a-year
court-appointed public defender,

175
00:19:37,144 --> 00:19:41,189
who will almost certainly
escort you to death row. Your choice.

176
00:19:41,398 --> 00:19:47,237
No, sir. I'd surely be grateful
for anything you can do.

177
00:19:47,446 --> 00:19:49,406
You're welcome.

178
00:19:49,615 --> 00:19:52,951
Now, your full name is...?

179
00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:56,288
My... Aaron Luke Sta...

180
00:19:57,289 --> 00:19:59,875
Stampler.

181
00:20:00,709 --> 00:20:02,336
Stampler.

182
00:20:02,544 --> 00:20:07,132
- You from Kentucky, Aaron?
- Yes, sir. I'm from Creekside.

183
00:20:07,341 --> 00:20:11,053
- Does it say that there?
- No.

184
00:20:12,554 --> 00:20:15,641
How long have you been
here in Chicago?

185
00:20:18,352 --> 00:20:20,270
Two years next month, I think.

186
00:20:20,812 --> 00:20:24,191
- Have you been arrested?
- No, sir.

187
00:20:27,778 --> 00:20:30,489
How do you know the Archbishop?

188
00:20:33,659 --> 00:20:38,247
I was begging on the street,
up on the Wacker Drive.

189
00:20:40,415 --> 00:20:44,503
Bishop Rushman came by
in his Cadillac.

190
00:20:44,711 --> 00:20:48,173
He saw me and he stopped.

191
00:20:49,466 --> 00:20:51,426
He took me into Savior House.

192
00:20:52,177 --> 00:20:54,137
I work as an altar boy.

193
00:20:54,346 --> 00:20:56,765
And I sing in his choir.

194
00:20:56,974 --> 00:20:59,935
How long were you there, Aaron,
Savior House?

195
00:21:00,143 --> 00:21:01,812
A year. Year and a half.

196
00:21:02,020 --> 00:21:06,149
You're supposed to leave
when you're 1 8, but...

197
00:21:06,358 --> 00:21:11,655
But Bishop Rushman let me stay on
way past my 1 9th birthday.

198
00:21:13,156 --> 00:21:14,950
That was nice of him.

199
00:21:18,078 --> 00:21:20,497
Yes. Yes, it was.

200
00:21:22,833 --> 00:21:26,169
Aaron, did you have any reason
to dislike the Archbishop?

201
00:21:26,378 --> 00:21:29,590
Dislike? No, no, sir.

202
00:21:29,798 --> 00:21:32,968
He was like a father to me.

203
00:21:33,176 --> 00:21:35,178
Yeah, but you...

204
00:21:36,805 --> 00:21:39,683
How am I gonna say this?

205
00:21:39,892 --> 00:21:43,020
Were you in the room
when he was murdered?

206
00:21:45,606 --> 00:21:48,734
How can you explain that?

207
00:21:48,942 --> 00:21:52,070
There was someone else
in that room, Mr Vail.

208
00:21:54,323 --> 00:21:56,116
- There was a third person?
- Yes, sir.

209
00:21:56,325 --> 00:21:58,827
- Did you tell the police this?
- Yes, I did.

210
00:21:59,036 --> 00:22:02,581
- But they didn't believe me.
- All right. You tell me now.

211
00:22:04,249 --> 00:22:06,835
I was returning a book

212
00:22:07,044 --> 00:22:09,630
to Bishop Rushman's library.

213
00:22:09,838 --> 00:22:15,636
I heard a noise,
so I went back into his bedroom.

214
00:22:18,180 --> 00:22:20,974
Bishop Rushman
was lying on the floor.

215
00:22:21,892 --> 00:22:25,562
There was blood all over everýthing.

216
00:22:25,771 --> 00:22:30,484
Then I saw the shadow.
I saw a person

217
00:22:30,692 --> 00:22:33,612
Ieaning over Bishop Rushman.

218
00:22:34,696 --> 00:22:39,159
He looked up, and he came at me.
And that's when I lost time.

219
00:22:40,953 --> 00:22:43,872
What does that mean? Lost time?

220
00:22:44,081 --> 00:22:47,417
I bla... I blacked out.

221
00:22:48,293 --> 00:22:50,921
It happens to me sometimes.

222
00:22:52,631 --> 00:22:55,133
I have...

223
00:22:55,342 --> 00:22:58,428
..spells. I have spells.

224
00:22:58,637 --> 00:23:00,931
I lose time.

225
00:23:01,640 --> 00:23:04,893
I can't remember nothing.

226
00:23:08,855 --> 00:23:13,610
Why did you run from the police,
Aaron, if you didn't do anything wrong?

227
00:23:13,819 --> 00:23:19,616
Well, when I woke up,
I was covered in blood.

228
00:23:19,825 --> 00:23:21,827
I didn't know what to do.

229
00:23:22,035 --> 00:23:25,414
I got scared,
I heard sirens, so I ran.

230
00:23:25,622 --> 00:23:28,792
Look, I know how it looks, Mr Vail,
but I swear...

231
00:23:29,001 --> 00:23:32,713
I don't need you to convince me.
Just answer my questions.

232
00:23:32,921 --> 00:23:37,509
- I didn't do this. You got to believe me.
- No, I don't. I don't care.

233
00:23:37,718 --> 00:23:42,180
I am your attorney, which means
I'm your mother, your father,

234
00:23:42,389 --> 00:23:45,100
your best friend and your priest.

235
00:23:46,310 --> 00:23:48,854
I don't want you talking
to anyone but me.

236
00:23:49,062 --> 00:23:52,566
Not the cops, the press,
the guys in the cells, nobody,

237
00:23:52,774 --> 00:23:54,860
without my permission.
You understand?

238
00:23:55,068 --> 00:23:58,322
- Yeah?
- Yes. Yes, I do.

239
00:23:58,530 --> 00:24:02,743
All right. Now the important stuff.
What's your suit size?

240
00:24:04,995 --> 00:24:08,498
- My what?
- Suit size. What are you? A 38"?

241
00:24:13,211 --> 00:24:17,299
- I don't know.
- Well, a 38" Iong.

242
00:24:20,260 --> 00:24:23,889
The police flushed Stampler from
his hiding place behind the Cathedral.

243
00:24:24,097 --> 00:24:27,559
They chased him through
the train yard, almost losing him

244
00:24:27,768 --> 00:24:32,439
as he scrambled over tracks before
an oncoming train separated them.

245
00:24:32,648 --> 00:24:35,984
Prominent local criminal
defence attorney Martin Vail

246
00:24:36,193 --> 00:24:38,987
is believed to have visited Stampler
at the Maxwell Street ...

247
00:24:39,196 --> 00:24:42,866
After a brief chase across the rail yard
behind St. Michael's Cathedral,

248
00:24:43,075 --> 00:24:46,453
Stampler was apprehended
in a hole beneath train tracks...

249
00:24:46,662 --> 00:24:50,791
- Are you defending this man?
- I'm sorry...

250
00:24:50,999 --> 00:24:53,669
Thank you very much. Thank you.

251
00:24:54,503 --> 00:24:56,672
We've taken the first step
in the process.

252
00:24:56,880 --> 00:24:59,007
I can now take your questions.

253
00:24:59,216 --> 00:25:03,387
Shaughnessy, what about the
altar boy group Stampler was part of?

254
00:25:03,595 --> 00:25:04,930
Not much at this time.

255
00:25:05,138 --> 00:25:07,391
Could other altar boys be involved?

256
00:25:07,599 --> 00:25:10,394
We have no reason to suspect
anyone other than Stampler.

257
00:25:10,602 --> 00:25:14,481
He had access to the Archbishop's
quarters. He was caught as he fled.

258
00:25:14,690 --> 00:25:17,859
The blood-soaked Aaron Stampler
was chased under McCormick Place,

259
00:25:18,068 --> 00:25:21,822
but not before he was almost killed
by a passing train.

260
00:25:23,407 --> 00:25:27,244
He's gonna call you
as soon as he gets here. Thank you.

261
00:25:27,452 --> 00:25:29,830
- Naomi!
- Yeah.

262
00:25:30,038 --> 00:25:31,832
Sorry, I'm late.
We have a new client.

263
00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:34,918
- I was afraid you were gonna say that.
- Who?

264
00:25:35,127 --> 00:25:38,797
You know what they're calling him?
The Butcher Boy of St. Mike's.

265
00:25:39,006 --> 00:25:41,466
- I like that.
- You'll be hearing it a lot.

266
00:25:41,675 --> 00:25:44,094
Is the kid who chopped up
the Archbishop our client?

267
00:25:44,303 --> 00:25:49,016
You have to get "allegedly" into your
vocabulary if you want to be a lawyer.

268
00:25:49,224 --> 00:25:51,143
- Coffee, Tommy?
- No, thanks.

269
00:25:51,351 --> 00:25:55,981
He admits he was in the room when
the killing occurred, but he didn't see it.

270
00:25:56,189 --> 00:25:59,693
- Can I stop you right there?
- No. He was returning a book.

271
00:25:59,902 --> 00:26:02,696
He heard loud noises in the bedroom.

272
00:26:02,905 --> 00:26:07,784
He went in. He sees a figure in
the shadows, kneeling over the body.

273
00:26:08,368 --> 00:26:10,579
He blacks out. Next thing he knows,

274
00:26:10,787 --> 00:26:13,123
sirens are screaming,
he's covered in blood.

275
00:26:13,332 --> 00:26:17,336
The cops find him in a train tunnel.
He's got the Archbishop's ring on him.

276
00:26:17,544 --> 00:26:20,839
- He stole the Archbishop's ring?
- No, it was in his pocket.

277
00:26:25,302 --> 00:26:27,387
Is that it?

278
00:26:29,723 --> 00:26:31,433
Yep.

279
00:26:32,935 --> 00:26:34,311
That's...

280
00:26:35,479 --> 00:26:39,399
That's the worst bullshit story
I've heard in my entire life.

281
00:26:39,608 --> 00:26:42,027
Now it's our bullshit story.

282
00:26:42,236 --> 00:26:44,863
OK. Let's get to work.

283
00:26:45,072 --> 00:26:49,618
The name of the game is "motive".
The Prosecution doesn't have one.

284
00:26:49,826 --> 00:26:53,413
We have to prove that someone
else could have committed the crime,

285
00:26:53,622 --> 00:26:55,415
then we can establish
reasonable doubt.

286
00:26:55,624 --> 00:26:58,335
I want to know everýthing I can
about this guy.

287
00:26:58,543 --> 00:27:02,256
Go to Database,
go to Hall of Records, IRS files.

288
00:27:02,839 --> 00:27:06,385
- Even so-called charities.
- So-called? He was a priest.

289
00:27:08,387 --> 00:27:15,269
Naomi, write this down. B 32.1 56. It
was carved into the Archbishop's chest.

290
00:27:15,477 --> 00:27:17,813
- Allegedly.
- No, that was a fact.

291
00:27:18,021 --> 00:27:20,732
- But I appreciate the effort.
- Thanks.

292
00:27:21,358 --> 00:27:26,071
I also need case histories on murder
by stabbing, mutilation and religion.

293
00:27:26,280 --> 00:27:29,324
- Also I'm gonna need a psychiatrist.
- You're telling me.

294
00:27:29,533 --> 00:27:33,203
Not the kind who lives
in a witness box. I need a real one.

295
00:27:33,412 --> 00:27:37,416
- And an expert on amnesia.
- What does he look like in person?

296
00:27:37,624 --> 00:27:39,459
The Butcher Boy?

297
00:27:41,503 --> 00:27:44,381
- Like a boy scout.
- A boy scout...

298
00:27:45,465 --> 00:27:48,093
..with a merit badge in carving.

299
00:27:48,677 --> 00:27:51,722
The Archbishop was
a close friend of Mr Shaughnessy.

300
00:27:51,930 --> 00:27:54,600
He asked me who my best man was.

301
00:27:54,808 --> 00:27:57,185
- I said you.
- Thank you.

302
00:27:58,353 --> 00:28:00,564
I trust if I'm to prosecute this case,

303
00:28:00,772 --> 00:28:03,901
I'll get the authority
which comes with it.

304
00:28:04,109 --> 00:28:06,361
You're the one trying the case.

305
00:28:06,570 --> 00:28:09,948
But let's establish one thing
at the outset. I want the death penalty.

306
00:28:11,992 --> 00:28:16,538
I'd like to go over the case before we
determine whether or not to seek that.

307
00:28:16,747 --> 00:28:21,668
I'm open to anything you have to say,
but in my mind there's no debate.

308
00:28:22,836 --> 00:28:25,589
Did the boy they picked up
say anything?

309
00:28:25,797 --> 00:28:28,383
Yeah, he didn't do it.

310
00:28:28,592 --> 00:28:32,054
- It's a slam dunk, Janet.
- Excuse me.

311
00:28:32,262 --> 00:28:35,432
I appreciate your faith in me.
I don't mean to be argumentative.

312
00:28:35,641 --> 00:28:39,561
- It's what we pay you for.
- Open and shut, you don't need me.

313
00:28:39,770 --> 00:28:43,857
The PD'll plead no contest and throw
the kid on the mercy of the court.

314
00:28:44,566 --> 00:28:46,818
There's not a public defender.

315
00:28:47,027 --> 00:28:51,281
He's got a lawyer? Already? Who?

316
00:28:55,202 --> 00:28:57,246
Hey, I'm Martin Vail.

317
00:28:57,454 --> 00:29:02,000
I'm defending Aaron Stampler.
I need to inspect the murder site.

318
00:29:02,209 --> 00:29:04,461
Oh, the Butcher Boy, huh?

319
00:29:04,670 --> 00:29:07,965
Thank you, yes. I forgot his real name.

320
00:29:13,512 --> 00:29:16,431
What's the matter, Marty?
Lost your faith?

321
00:29:17,391 --> 00:29:18,809
Looking for a little religion?

322
00:29:19,017 --> 00:29:23,105
Tell me, counsellor. Which one of us
is the true headline chaser here?

323
00:29:23,313 --> 00:29:27,317
- Unlike you, I was assigned.
- Yeah? And you're up to it?

324
00:29:27,526 --> 00:29:31,655
Sold the book rights, or will you wait?
Wanna see some pictures?

325
00:29:35,200 --> 00:29:36,994
They're kind of cute.

326
00:29:42,082 --> 00:29:46,670
I think you'll agree they clearly show
the heinous nature of the crime.

327
00:29:50,215 --> 00:29:54,469
Small piece of advice. Don't use
the word "heinous" in the courtroom.

328
00:29:54,678 --> 00:29:56,680
Half the jury won't know
what you mean.

329
00:29:56,889 --> 00:30:00,726
Small piece of advice. I'm not
sitting second chair to you any more.

330
00:30:00,934 --> 00:30:04,396
In case you hadn't noticed,
I graduated.

331
00:30:07,566 --> 00:30:11,153
- I had no reason to leave.
- You had every reason to leave.

332
00:30:11,361 --> 00:30:15,991
- How can you still work for them?
- You expect me to trot out after you?

333
00:30:16,199 --> 00:30:18,535
Quit just because you did?

334
00:30:18,744 --> 00:30:23,957
I don't need a Mercedes. I don't need
to see my face on the evening news.

335
00:30:29,630 --> 00:30:32,591
You knew I was coming here,
didn't you?

336
00:30:32,799 --> 00:30:36,386
You knew I would defend him.
That's why you took the case.

337
00:30:36,595 --> 00:30:42,267
Oh, please. What's the matter, Marty?
Are you nervous?

338
00:30:43,936 --> 00:30:48,023
Been a while since you rubbed up
against a woman with a brain?

339
00:30:50,275 --> 00:30:53,320
What's the matter? You tired,
you haven't been sleeping well?

340
00:30:53,528 --> 00:30:57,157
You're the one with the score to settle.
I sleep great at night.

341
00:31:56,341 --> 00:31:58,552
Cook County Dept. of Corrections
Div. IX Maximum Security Dormitory

342
00:32:05,142 --> 00:32:06,476
Thanks.

343
00:32:08,061 --> 00:32:12,441
- Hey. Where is he?
- Over here.

344
00:32:31,043 --> 00:32:34,046
We'll be sitting at a table
with two of my associates.

345
00:32:34,254 --> 00:32:37,549
Once the charges are read,
the judge'll ask how you plead.

346
00:32:37,758 --> 00:32:40,219
- Not guilty.
- No.

347
00:32:40,427 --> 00:32:42,137
But I'm not guilty, Mr Vail.

348
00:32:42,346 --> 00:32:45,557
It doesn't matter.
Keep your mouth shut.

349
00:32:45,766 --> 00:32:49,603
- Are you gonna say I'm not guilty?
- I'll say whatever I say. Don't worry.

350
00:32:49,811 --> 00:32:51,438
- But...
- This is what I mean.

351
00:32:51,647 --> 00:32:57,486
This can't go on in the courtroom. Get
used to it. I speak, you do not speak.

352
00:32:57,694 --> 00:33:01,323
- Your job is to sit and look innocent.
- I am innocent.

353
00:33:02,532 --> 00:33:05,869
That's it! That's how I want you to look.

354
00:33:06,078 --> 00:33:08,580
Can you remember that?
Look in the mirror if you have to.

355
00:33:08,789 --> 00:33:11,875
I don't have to.
This is how I always look.

356
00:33:12,084 --> 00:33:15,796
Then you're way ahead
of the game already, aren't you?

357
00:33:16,004 --> 00:33:17,547
Don't smile.

358
00:33:20,008 --> 00:33:21,802
Don't.

359
00:33:30,185 --> 00:33:35,357
- Mr Vail, can we have a statement?
- We're gonna find out what happened.

360
00:33:35,566 --> 00:33:37,651
The only pressure is to find the truth.

361
00:33:38,694 --> 00:33:42,447
You've talked to the police. I told you
not to. They get everýthing wrong.

362
00:33:42,656 --> 00:33:45,867
How will you explain
his blood-soaked clothes?

363
00:33:46,076 --> 00:33:49,746
I won't explain anything now.
I've just been retained in this case.

364
00:33:49,955 --> 00:33:53,584
Significant facts are in dispute here
and continue to be so.

365
00:33:53,792 --> 00:33:57,671
You're a master at putting the victim
on trial to help your client.

366
00:33:57,879 --> 00:33:59,923
That'll be very difficult in this case.

367
00:34:00,132 --> 00:34:02,634
The victim in this case is my client.

368
00:34:02,843 --> 00:34:05,846
We have two victims here,
no suspects. Thank you.

369
00:34:06,054 --> 00:34:08,557
- You worried about his safety?
- No. Thank you.

370
00:34:24,156 --> 00:34:26,950
I don't think there's any question
about the verdict.

371
00:34:33,498 --> 00:34:35,876
All rise.

372
00:34:36,084 --> 00:34:37,711
Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen.

373
00:34:39,338 --> 00:34:40,672
Bailiff.

374
00:34:40,881 --> 00:34:43,175
The State versus Aaron Stampler.

375
00:34:43,842 --> 00:34:47,971
- Is every... Sit down. Everyone here?
- Yes, Your Honour.

376
00:34:48,180 --> 00:34:49,890
Madame Prosecutor.

377
00:34:50,098 --> 00:34:54,645
The State charges Aaron Stampler
with murder in the first degree.

378
00:34:54,853 --> 00:34:56,438
How does your client plead?

379
00:34:56,647 --> 00:34:59,066
If it pleases the Court,
I need time to make

380
00:34:59,274 --> 00:35:02,236
a psychiatric evaluation before
charges are brought against us.

381
00:35:02,444 --> 00:35:04,696
The State has enough evidence
to warrant the allegations.

382
00:35:04,905 --> 00:35:08,450
I agree. Motion denied.
Mr Stampler.

383
00:35:09,868 --> 00:35:13,163
- Do you understand the charges?
- Yes.

384
00:35:13,372 --> 00:35:18,335
I direct my client not to answer that.
His response might incriminate him.

385
00:35:18,543 --> 00:35:21,463
He is taking the Fifth on whether
or not he understands the charges?

386
00:35:21,672 --> 00:35:24,758
Yes. Until we have a complete
psychological evaluation,

387
00:35:24,967 --> 00:35:28,845
he will be taking the Fifth on any
and all questions posed to him.

388
00:35:29,054 --> 00:35:31,723
The State versus Appleby.

389
00:35:31,932 --> 00:35:33,934
For your review on precedent.
Thank you.

390
00:35:51,577 --> 00:35:54,621
No, I can't do that. No.

391
00:35:57,416 --> 00:35:59,042
What do you want?

392
00:35:59,251 --> 00:36:03,046
I'm looking for the room a kid named
Aaron Stampler stayed in.

393
00:36:04,965 --> 00:36:08,051
- Are you the police?
- I'm his uncle.

394
00:37:14,493 --> 00:37:16,578
Well, hey.

395
00:37:24,878 --> 00:37:27,589
- This is Alex's.
- Who's Alex?

396
00:37:27,798 --> 00:37:30,259
He's one of the other altar boys.

397
00:37:30,509 --> 00:37:33,428
An altar boy.
An altar boy was wearing this?

398
00:37:35,264 --> 00:37:37,933
Well, not at mass.

399
00:37:39,226 --> 00:37:43,397
This altar boy attacked a colleague
of mine and hurt him pretty bad.

400
00:37:47,609 --> 00:37:51,154
What do you think he was doing
in your room?

401
00:37:53,949 --> 00:37:59,454
I can't... I don't know.
I don't have nothing.

402
00:37:59,663 --> 00:38:04,251
- You know where to find him?
- Who? Alex?

403
00:38:04,501 --> 00:38:08,255
- No, I don't know where he is.
- You don't?

404
00:38:08,922 --> 00:38:11,550
- Who's Linda?
- L-Linda?

405
00:38:22,811 --> 00:38:25,898
Is she your girlfriend?

406
00:38:26,148 --> 00:38:28,483
Where is she? I'd like to talk to her.

407
00:38:28,734 --> 00:38:30,694
I don't know where she is.

408
00:38:30,944 --> 00:38:33,447
I get this feeling
you're not telling me something.

409
00:38:33,697 --> 00:38:36,033
- I'm telling you the truth.
- I don't think so.

410
00:38:36,658 --> 00:38:40,746
Are you surprised
that Alex attacked my friend?

411
00:38:40,996 --> 00:38:43,916
No. No, he has a temper.

412
00:38:44,166 --> 00:38:46,460
Yeah, I'd say so.

413
00:38:47,794 --> 00:38:50,797
Do you think it could be Alex

414
00:38:51,006 --> 00:38:55,135
who was that figure you saw
at the Archbishop's room?

415
00:38:55,385 --> 00:38:58,764
I... Alex? I couldn't be sure.

416
00:38:59,014 --> 00:39:01,850
- But it could be him.
- I don't know.

417
00:39:02,059 --> 00:39:04,478
You don't understand.
The State wants you dead.

418
00:39:04,728 --> 00:39:06,813
You don't help me,
that's what they'll get.

419
00:39:11,151 --> 00:39:14,238
I'm trying. I can't remember.

420
00:39:14,488 --> 00:39:17,783
I don't understand. Why would Alex
wanna do such a thing?

421
00:39:18,033 --> 00:39:21,036
For his own reasons.
Maybe someone hired him.

422
00:39:23,038 --> 00:39:26,208
- Hired by who?
- Forget it.

423
00:39:29,044 --> 00:39:31,713
Do you think he's capable of doing it?

424
00:39:32,297 --> 00:39:34,591
I don't know.

425
00:39:36,051 --> 00:39:38,720
I don't know who's capable
of such a thing.

426
00:39:45,394 --> 00:39:46,979
- Oh, thanks.
- Sure.

427
00:39:48,438 --> 00:39:52,651
He claims there was someone else
in the room, and he can't remember.

428
00:39:54,194 --> 00:39:59,032
You want me to look into this amnesia
question and see what he knows?

429
00:39:59,283 --> 00:40:01,952
What if he knows he did it?

430
00:40:02,202 --> 00:40:04,037
Major causes of amnesia are:

431
00:40:04,288 --> 00:40:09,001
substance abuse, seizures,
head injuries and malingering.

432
00:40:11,378 --> 00:40:14,047
I think the kid is telling the truth.

433
00:40:15,799 --> 00:40:19,845
OK. Then let's get something straight.

434
00:40:20,095 --> 00:40:24,892
I'm happy to go in and analyse him,
in fact I'm looking forward to it,

435
00:40:25,142 --> 00:40:28,395
but I won't go in there
to validate a story. Understood?

436
00:40:28,604 --> 00:40:32,107
You do your job,
I do mine, yatta, yatta.

437
00:40:32,357 --> 00:40:34,151
If I think it's necessary,

438
00:40:34,401 --> 00:40:37,696
I'd wanna get an MRl, EEG
and Neuropsych testing.

439
00:40:37,946 --> 00:40:41,575
- Yes, doctor. Good night.
- Good night.

440
00:40:47,039 --> 00:40:49,207
I'll be recording our meetings
for Mr Vail.

441
00:40:49,458 --> 00:40:55,297
So it isn't as confidential as it would be
if you were consulting with the doctor.

442
00:40:55,547 --> 00:40:59,009
He may even call me as a witness.
If you have any questions...

443
00:40:59,259 --> 00:41:03,889
- ...you should raise them to him now.
- No, ma'am. I understand.

444
00:41:04,097 --> 00:41:08,977
Good. So, OK. I think we'll be fine.

445
00:41:09,228 --> 00:41:11,313
- I'll see you later.
- OK.

446
00:41:12,272 --> 00:41:13,565
Bye.

447
00:41:21,240 --> 00:41:26,078
Vail told me there's time surrounding
the death you don't remember.

448
00:41:26,328 --> 00:41:28,288
- Is that right?
- Yes.

449
00:41:28,497 --> 00:41:32,042
I lost the time.

450
00:41:32,292 --> 00:41:35,045
I mean I blacked out.

451
00:41:36,129 --> 00:41:39,716
- Have you had blackouts before?
- Yes, I have.

452
00:41:39,967 --> 00:41:43,679
When's the first time
you remember them happening?

453
00:41:45,931 --> 00:41:49,977
They started when I was about twelve.

454
00:41:50,227 --> 00:41:52,521
Were your parents aware
of what was happening to you?

455
00:41:52,771 --> 00:41:57,693
N-no. My m-m-mother was dead.

456
00:41:59,111 --> 00:42:01,238
And your father?

457
00:42:03,448 --> 00:42:08,245
No, no. He was not a nice man.

458
00:42:08,453 --> 00:42:11,373
- Did you seek treatment?
- Did I what?

459
00:42:12,624 --> 00:42:15,627
- Did you see a doctor for them?
- Oh.

460
00:42:17,421 --> 00:42:19,214
No.

461
00:42:19,464 --> 00:42:23,760
You don't go to a doctor in Creekside
unless your leg's broken.

462
00:42:32,227 --> 00:42:35,814
- Hey. Can I talk to you?
- Talk.

463
00:42:36,064 --> 00:42:38,817
Excuse us. I'll bring her right back.

464
00:42:39,401 --> 00:42:41,028
How dare you?

465
00:42:41,278 --> 00:42:44,281
Am I a chess piece you can
move around? I was having lunch.

466
00:42:44,531 --> 00:42:47,784
When are we getting all the discovery?

467
00:42:48,035 --> 00:42:50,412
- What do you want?
- I want to know when.

468
00:42:50,662 --> 00:42:52,873
- I've got motions to file.
- No, you don't.

469
00:42:53,123 --> 00:42:55,876
You're looking to make a deal.

470
00:42:57,336 --> 00:43:01,465
I have no authority to deal from
my client. What's your excuse?

471
00:43:01,715 --> 00:43:05,052
If we needed to make a deal,
I have all the authority I want.

472
00:43:05,302 --> 00:43:10,265
Bullshit! Shaughnessy wants the
whole shot. He's using you to get it.

473
00:43:10,515 --> 00:43:13,268
Deal this down
to murder with no death penalty.

474
00:43:13,518 --> 00:43:16,438
Deal down?
We have a fucking great case.

475
00:43:17,856 --> 00:43:23,445
Great case? Lack of prior record, no
eye witness, no confession, no motive.

476
00:43:23,654 --> 00:43:29,660
Hard evidence. I assume you're not
going with insanity, which is a shame.

477
00:43:29,868 --> 00:43:32,537
My shrinks would have torn him apart.

478
00:43:33,872 --> 00:43:36,625
Your pleading the Fifth
on the charges was brilliant.

479
00:43:36,833 --> 00:43:39,920
It was good, wasn't it? I liked it.

480
00:43:41,255 --> 00:43:45,467
You lose this case, you take the fall,
not Shaughnessy.

481
00:43:46,885 --> 00:43:50,389
- Talk to me.
- We're going to trial, Marty.

482
00:43:52,558 --> 00:43:57,020
All right. All it takes is one.
One juror who doesn't believe he did it.

483
00:43:57,271 --> 00:44:00,190
One juror with a kid
who looks into that face...

484
00:44:00,440 --> 00:44:02,985
That face is great. You prepping him
to take the stand?

485
00:44:03,235 --> 00:44:05,988
That stutter is p-p-priceless.

486
00:44:09,074 --> 00:44:10,951
Oh, Marty.

487
00:44:11,201 --> 00:44:14,037
Don't tell me you think he didn't do it.

488
00:44:14,246 --> 00:44:17,249
Has little Aaron Stampler
gotten to you?

489
00:44:17,499 --> 00:44:21,878
We're not just talking about jail here,
but ending someone's life.

490
00:44:22,087 --> 00:44:25,340
If you're wrong and Shaughnessy's
made you do this, can you live with it?

491
00:44:25,591 --> 00:44:27,718
I'll live.

492
00:44:29,887 --> 00:44:31,930
See you in court.

493
00:44:34,641 --> 00:44:37,102
We stipulate
that murder was done here.

494
00:44:37,352 --> 00:44:39,730
So these photos
have no probative value.

495
00:44:39,980 --> 00:44:42,816
This is not just murder,
it's mutilation and torture.

496
00:44:43,066 --> 00:44:46,403
The Prosecution wants to show them
to the jury for shock appeal.

497
00:44:46,612 --> 00:44:50,657
Not true. They clearly identify
the heinous nature of the crime,

498
00:44:50,908 --> 00:44:54,786
and they connect the defendant, found
covered in blood, to the crime scene.

499
00:44:55,037 --> 00:44:57,080
- Prejudicial.
- I beg to differ.

500
00:44:57,289 --> 00:45:00,459
Counsel, please!
The photos are in, Mr Vail.

501
00:45:00,709 --> 00:45:03,712
Would you like a recess
to carry on with this in private?

502
00:45:03,921 --> 00:45:05,797
I'm sorry, Your Honour,
but this is too much.

503
00:45:06,048 --> 00:45:08,884
Next thing, he'll be objecting
if we bring in the murder weapon.

504
00:45:12,262 --> 00:45:15,515
Now that she brings it up...

505
00:45:19,519 --> 00:45:21,980
This is a public building.

506
00:45:27,903 --> 00:45:30,197
Excuse me, Mr Vail.

507
00:45:31,615 --> 00:45:34,618
Would you sign this for me?

508
00:45:36,995 --> 00:45:39,748
Tell me about Linda.
Mr Vail said she was your girlfriend.

509
00:45:41,625 --> 00:45:43,168
Yes, she was.

510
00:45:43,418 --> 00:45:45,712
How did you meet?

511
00:45:45,963 --> 00:45:49,216
Well, we were both
at the Savior House.

512
00:45:49,424 --> 00:45:54,304
I was an altar boy. She was doing
work for Bishop Rushman.

513
00:45:55,597 --> 00:46:00,227
- What was the relationship like?
- Me and Linda?

514
00:46:00,435 --> 00:46:04,189
She is real cultural,
real cultural and very smart.

515
00:46:04,398 --> 00:46:06,358
We had a nice time together.

516
00:46:10,362 --> 00:46:11,947
We might get married.

517
00:46:14,491 --> 00:46:16,785
Were you sleeping together?

518
00:46:20,664 --> 00:46:24,084
- Well, that's private.
- I know. I have to ask the question.

519
00:46:25,002 --> 00:46:27,754
Were you having
a sexual relationship, Aaron?

520
00:46:30,465 --> 00:46:32,759
Yes, we were.

521
00:46:32,968 --> 00:46:35,262
Were you sleeping with anyone else
at the time?

522
00:46:36,597 --> 00:46:38,473
No.

523
00:46:38,724 --> 00:46:40,934
Was she?

524
00:46:48,901 --> 00:46:51,695
Has she been to see you, Aaron?

525
00:46:59,077 --> 00:47:02,831
- Well, no, but...
- And that upsets you.

526
00:47:05,876 --> 00:47:09,796
No. No, the thing is she went away.

527
00:47:10,881 --> 00:47:13,425
She went away for a while.

528
00:47:13,634 --> 00:47:17,930
She left before this happened.
I don't even think...

529
00:47:18,138 --> 00:47:20,182
I don't even think she knows about it.

530
00:47:33,737 --> 00:47:35,781
- Yo, boss.
- Hey. Got something for me?

531
00:47:36,031 --> 00:47:37,824
Yeah.

532
00:47:38,033 --> 00:47:42,037
There's nothing catalogued downtown
under the numbers B 321 56.

533
00:47:42,246 --> 00:47:48,669
But I don't think the B is a B. It's an 8.
I think the knife slipped. 8321 56.

534
00:47:49,670 --> 00:47:52,214
Thomas Jefferson.
I don't think he did it.

535
00:47:52,464 --> 00:47:58,095
This won't help. Rushman's charities
and his foundation's investments.

536
00:47:58,303 --> 00:48:00,681
Nothing startling,
except how many there are.

537
00:48:04,017 --> 00:48:05,894
Wait a minute here.

538
00:48:06,144 --> 00:48:09,314
What was he doing
with the South River deal? Pull that up.

539
00:48:10,941 --> 00:48:12,442
LOADING FILE

540
00:48:13,235 --> 00:48:15,070
Yeah. The investors.

541
00:48:17,656 --> 00:48:20,033
Shaughnessy?

542
00:48:20,242 --> 00:48:22,619
That's Joey Pinero's neighbourhood.

543
00:48:23,161 --> 00:48:26,415
See this lot here?
This all used to be houses.

544
00:48:26,623 --> 00:48:32,796
In fact, there was a house in the corner
where I kissed my first girlfriend.

545
00:48:33,005 --> 00:48:34,881
Got her pregnant, too.

546
00:48:35,090 --> 00:48:37,384
- Hell of a kiss, Joey.
- Oh, yeah.

547
00:48:37,634 --> 00:48:42,180
The neighbourhood will end up
high-rent condos if they get their way.

548
00:48:42,389 --> 00:48:45,183
That's why I'll buy back the lot
with the settlement you got me.

549
00:48:45,893 --> 00:48:47,978
You heard about the money, right?

550
00:48:48,186 --> 00:48:50,147
- Who hasn't?
- Marty's the best, man.

551
00:48:50,397 --> 00:48:52,441
Just doing my job.

552
00:48:52,649 --> 00:48:54,860
1 ,500,000. He's just doing his job.

553
00:48:55,068 --> 00:48:59,865
Alderman, Joey tells me a cop came
around, wanting him to set you up.

554
00:49:02,117 --> 00:49:04,161
It's typical.

555
00:49:04,369 --> 00:49:07,581
Can't buy me,
so they try to buy a brother.

556
00:49:07,789 --> 00:49:11,710
Most people assume this land we're
walking on belongs to the railroad.

557
00:49:11,919 --> 00:49:15,505
But it doesn't. It belongs to the Church.

558
00:49:15,714 --> 00:49:17,299
The Church?

559
00:49:19,593 --> 00:49:21,970
- So that's the Rushman Foundation.
- That's right.

560
00:49:22,221 --> 00:49:27,893
- With a bunch of rich developers.
- Including John Shaughnessy.

561
00:49:28,101 --> 00:49:33,941
They bought up land and buildings
around the Church property

562
00:49:34,149 --> 00:49:38,070
and tore them down.
Our neighbourhood would disappear.

563
00:49:38,278 --> 00:49:42,449
I went to the Archbishop and said,
"What are you doing to these people?"

564
00:49:42,658 --> 00:49:46,828
"They're poor. They're getting
kicked out of their homes."

565
00:49:47,037 --> 00:49:49,665
- "And they're Catholic."
- Fucking A.

566
00:49:49,873 --> 00:49:53,794
He listened. I couldn't believe it.

567
00:49:54,044 --> 00:49:56,338
He told them to stop developing
around the Church property.

568
00:49:56,588 --> 00:50:01,802
The partners hold buildings they can't
demolish and land they can't build on.

569
00:50:02,052 --> 00:50:04,972
Shaughnessy loses millions.

570
00:50:05,180 --> 00:50:07,975
- If I need you to, will you testify?
- Who? Me?

571
00:50:08,183 --> 00:50:10,561
Oh, yeah. Easy.

572
00:50:10,811 --> 00:50:13,981
Just change out of this suit, put on
a Brooks Brothers with loafers and...

573
00:50:14,189 --> 00:50:16,858
No, Joey. Not you.

574
00:50:18,902 --> 00:50:21,154
Sure.

575
00:50:21,363 --> 00:50:23,407
I'll testify.

576
00:50:25,993 --> 00:50:29,746
You know what people think?
That this great city runs itself.

577
00:50:29,955 --> 00:50:34,626
They think it gets up, goes to work and
climbs into bed at night, like we do.

578
00:50:34,835 --> 00:50:38,005
Unaware of what it takes to make sure
it doesn't break down.

579
00:50:38,213 --> 00:50:41,717
Crime, fires, riots.

580
00:50:41,967 --> 00:50:46,763
The water pipes bursting under
the city. What a mess that was.

581
00:50:47,014 --> 00:50:50,058
And the Water Commissioner
calls the contractor who built it?

582
00:50:50,267 --> 00:50:53,604
No, he calls me. They all call me.

583
00:50:56,648 --> 00:50:58,692
Goddamn, this is terrific.

584
00:50:59,651 --> 00:51:04,865
They call me because I keep
the peace. That's my job.

585
00:51:06,533 --> 00:51:09,411
This city doesn't burn
because I won't permit it.

586
00:51:09,620 --> 00:51:11,496
I'm the great negotiator.

587
00:51:11,705 --> 00:51:15,042
You think people get that?
The truth is I don't care.

588
00:51:15,250 --> 00:51:17,711
The dumb bastards don't even vote.

589
00:51:17,920 --> 00:51:21,423
They just eat, sleep, watch TV
and occasionally fuck their wives.

590
00:51:23,008 --> 00:51:25,761
Guess we should all thank you.

591
00:51:25,969 --> 00:51:27,638
You're welcome.

592
00:51:28,847 --> 00:51:31,308
John, you need some new material.

593
00:51:31,516 --> 00:51:35,729
I've heard this great-city speech
ten times already.

594
00:51:37,898 --> 00:51:40,442
Your boy Pinero is not honouring
his side of the deal.

595
00:51:41,777 --> 00:51:45,697
- Is that what this dinner is about?
- In part.

596
00:51:45,948 --> 00:51:50,535
I told him what the deal is.
He's a grown up. What else?

597
00:51:52,162 --> 00:51:55,749
Your assistant's been digging around
in the Archbishop's finances.

598
00:51:57,459 --> 00:51:59,670
Yeah, well.

599
00:52:06,176 --> 00:52:11,598
How much did you lose when he
pulled the plug from South River?

600
00:52:11,807 --> 00:52:14,101
Let me tell you something.

601
00:52:14,309 --> 00:52:18,063
It's a mistake to stick your thumb in
the eyes of the city's most powerful.

602
00:52:18,272 --> 00:52:21,483
It's not their eyes I'm aiming for.

603
00:52:24,570 --> 00:52:26,613
Do not fuck with me, Marty.

604
00:52:41,086 --> 00:52:43,880
The pipes are bursting again, John.

605
00:53:00,689 --> 00:53:04,067
In the most anticipated murder trial
in recent Chicago history,

606
00:53:04,276 --> 00:53:08,322
former State Attorney Prosecutor
Martin Vail will lead...

607
00:53:14,870 --> 00:53:17,414
Richard Rushman was a man of God.

608
00:53:17,664 --> 00:53:21,251
He spent his life giving
to the people of Chicago.

609
00:53:21,460 --> 00:53:25,505
He was a beacon ofinspiration,
not only as a spiritual leader...

610
00:53:25,714 --> 00:53:28,675
...deliver his opening statement
tomorrow...

611
00:53:28,884 --> 00:53:33,555
My name is Martin Vail. The reason
I'm here, and the reason you're here,

612
00:53:33,764 --> 00:53:37,017
is to make sure
the whole truth is known.

613
00:53:37,226 --> 00:53:38,894
We can learn the truth

614
00:53:39,102 --> 00:53:41,939
by talking about what the Prosecution
does not want you to hear.

615
00:53:42,147 --> 00:53:46,526
Do not be fooled by the defendant's
innocent appearance and demeanour.

616
00:53:46,735 --> 00:53:50,822
Aaron Stampler sat injudgment
ofArchbishop Rushman

617
00:53:51,031 --> 00:53:53,700
and determined
that not only should he die,

618
00:53:53,909 --> 00:53:56,161
but he should die the most brutal...

619
00:53:56,370 --> 00:54:00,707
We all saw Aaron being arrested
minutes after the Archbishop's death.

620
00:54:00,916 --> 00:54:06,838
But why? Because he was convenient
and the police were under pressure...

621
00:54:07,047 --> 00:54:11,802
The evidence will show that Aaron
Stampler stalked, ambushed

622
00:54:12,010 --> 00:54:14,179
and savagely murdered
this great man.

623
00:54:14,388 --> 00:54:16,265
The Prosecution doesn't want you
to hear about

624
00:54:16,473 --> 00:54:19,977
the other altar boys who have
mysteriously disappeared.

625
00:54:20,185 --> 00:54:22,521
At the close of evidence,
you will learn

626
00:54:22,729 --> 00:54:24,815
that Aaron Stampler
had everything he needed

627
00:54:25,023 --> 00:54:27,693
for the perfect assassination.
Using this knife...

628
00:54:29,236 --> 00:54:34,491
..Aaron Stampler repeatedly stabbed
at the Archbishop's chest,

629
00:54:34,700 --> 00:54:37,244
his genitals and his eyes.

630
00:54:37,452 --> 00:54:39,746
They don't want you to hear
that the Archbishop

631
00:54:39,955 --> 00:54:42,583
invested on behalf
of the Roman Catholic Church.

632
00:54:42,791 --> 00:54:47,504
Investments resulting in huge losses
for some very powerful people.

633
00:54:48,213 --> 00:54:53,969
They don't want you to hear about the
20 death threats he received this year.

634
00:54:54,177 --> 00:54:58,682
And they really don't want you
to hear about their theory of motive.

635
00:54:58,891 --> 00:55:00,475
Why is that? Very simple.

636
00:55:03,228 --> 00:55:05,230
They don't have one.

637
00:55:08,150 --> 00:55:12,863
Inspector Woodside, explain to the
court where the sneakers came from.

638
00:55:13,071 --> 00:55:16,366
They were taken off the defendant
when he was apprehended.

639
00:55:16,575 --> 00:55:19,578
What was the result
of the blood-stain analysis?

640
00:55:19,786 --> 00:55:22,289
They proved to be human blood

641
00:55:22,497 --> 00:55:26,084
matching the blood type and DNA
characteristics of the Archbishop.

642
00:55:26,293 --> 00:55:29,004
What did the bloody footprints
surrounding the body tell you?

643
00:55:29,212 --> 00:55:33,967
The killer left a pattern of footprints
around the area of the struggle,

644
00:55:34,176 --> 00:55:37,179
as indicated by the spread of blood
through the room.

645
00:55:37,387 --> 00:55:42,184
Yes or no, inspector. Could there have
been a third person in the quarters?

646
00:55:42,392 --> 00:55:45,938
- There's no evidence to suggest that.
- No evidence proves there wasn't.

647
00:55:46,146 --> 00:55:47,648
No.

648
00:55:47,856 --> 00:55:49,691
What happened after the struggle?

649
00:55:49,900 --> 00:55:53,487
Our analysis suggests
the killer was startled and ran

650
00:55:53,695 --> 00:55:55,489
from the bedroom and down the stairs.

651
00:55:55,697 --> 00:56:01,662
Is it possible, inspector...
that the real killer, the third person,

652
00:56:01,870 --> 00:56:06,375
who maybe was smart enough not
to tramp a whole freeway of blood

653
00:56:06,583 --> 00:56:08,252
through the whole place,

654
00:56:08,460 --> 00:56:12,172
couldn't this third person have placed
the defendant's prints on the knife...

655
00:56:12,381 --> 00:56:15,926
- ...while he was passed out?
- Anything is possible.

656
00:56:16,134 --> 00:56:19,596
Clearly the victim suffered
a great number of stab wounds.

657
00:56:19,805 --> 00:56:21,473
Yes, he did. 78.

658
00:56:21,682 --> 00:56:26,019
He tried to defend himself, that
explains cuts on hands and forearms.

659
00:56:26,228 --> 00:56:29,022
Doctor, isn't it a fact
that you can't be sure

660
00:56:29,231 --> 00:56:34,820
whether more than one person inflicted
these 78 stab and incised wounds?

661
00:56:35,028 --> 00:56:37,906
It could have been more than one,
but I doubt it.

662
00:56:38,115 --> 00:56:40,742
From your analysis
of the knife wounds,

663
00:56:40,951 --> 00:56:44,162
do you have an opinion whether
the killer was left or right-handed?

664
00:56:44,371 --> 00:56:46,957
The wounds to the throat
and most of the chest wounds

665
00:56:47,165 --> 00:56:51,545
were made from an angle that strongly
suggests a left-handed person.

666
00:56:51,753 --> 00:56:54,923
- Is the defendant left-handed?
- Yes, he is.

667
00:56:55,132 --> 00:57:01,096
It's possible a right-handed person
could have used his left hand.

668
00:57:01,305 --> 00:57:02,764
Yes, I suppose that's possible.

669
00:57:02,973 --> 00:57:08,520
Then it's reasonable to assume there
was a third person at the crime scene.

670
00:57:08,729 --> 00:57:11,773
Reasonable, no. But it is possible.

671
00:57:11,982 --> 00:57:15,527
...then following opening statements
it was a day ofstrong testimony

672
00:57:15,736 --> 00:57:17,654
from the Prosecution's first witnesses,

673
00:57:17,863 --> 00:57:22,534
Forensics ChiefHarvey Woodside
and Medical Examiner Emile Weil.

674
00:57:22,743 --> 00:57:25,746
It was also tough cross-examination
of Woodside and Weil

675
00:57:25,954 --> 00:57:28,457
by Stampler defence attorney
Martin Vail.

676
00:57:30,667 --> 00:57:33,879
Captain Stenner, thank you
for the time you've given us.

677
00:57:34,046 --> 00:57:39,676
But finally, I'd like to turn your attention
to the symbol carved into the chest.

678
00:57:39,885 --> 00:57:43,222
Would you please tell the jury
about that, captain?

679
00:57:43,430 --> 00:57:46,350
Yes, the letter and the numbers

680
00:57:46,558 --> 00:57:50,646
B 32.1 56 were carved
into the Archbishop's chest.

681
00:57:50,854 --> 00:57:55,025
Have you been able to find
an identical reference anywhere?

682
00:57:55,234 --> 00:57:56,777
I believe so, yes.

683
00:57:56,985 --> 00:58:02,866
The symbol B 32.1 56 is actually
catalogue code for a book

684
00:58:03,075 --> 00:58:07,037
discovered in a private reading room
located in the church basement.

685
00:58:07,246 --> 00:58:12,834
That particular number, the B 32 part,
refers to a book, The Scarlet Letter,

686
00:58:13,043 --> 00:58:14,878
by Nathaniel Hawthorne.

687
00:58:15,087 --> 00:58:18,715
When we opened the book
to page 1 56,

688
00:58:18,924 --> 00:58:21,552
we discovered an underlined passage.

689
00:58:22,928 --> 00:58:27,224
Could you please read
this underlined passage to the court?

690
00:58:29,351 --> 00:58:32,187
"No man, for any considerable period,"

691
00:58:32,396 --> 00:58:35,857
"can wear one face to himself
and another to the multitude"

692
00:58:36,066 --> 00:58:41,238
"without finally getting bewildered
as to which may be the true."

693
00:58:41,446 --> 00:58:43,824
Thank you.

694
00:58:47,035 --> 00:58:48,870
What does that passage mean to you?

695
00:58:49,079 --> 00:58:51,707
Objection. He's a policeman,
not an English professor.

696
00:58:51,915 --> 00:58:54,668
His interpretation will be
speculative and irrelevant.

697
00:58:54,876 --> 00:58:58,422
She didn't ask for an expert opinion.
Witness can answer.

698
00:58:59,923 --> 00:59:01,842
Well, to me it's simple.

699
00:59:02,050 --> 00:59:06,513
The killer thought his victim was
two-faced, dishonest in some way.

700
00:59:06,722 --> 00:59:08,390
In your experience, captain,

701
00:59:08,599 --> 00:59:12,102
do killers ever intentionally
leave clues to their motive?

702
00:59:12,311 --> 00:59:15,647
Not often, but it happens.

703
00:59:21,028 --> 00:59:22,654
Thanks.

704
00:59:22,863 --> 00:59:24,406
- Thanks, man.
- Yeah, sure.

705
00:59:25,532 --> 00:59:27,910
Did you underline that book?

706
00:59:28,118 --> 00:59:30,621
- What?
- Did you underline that book?

707
00:59:30,829 --> 00:59:33,206
- No, Mr Vail.
- No?

708
00:59:33,415 --> 00:59:37,544
No, Mr Vail. I never even opened
The Scarlet Letter.

709
00:59:37,753 --> 00:59:40,631
I don't like Hawthorne.

710
00:59:40,839 --> 00:59:43,634
We had that one about the house with
the seven somethings in high school,

711
00:59:43,842 --> 00:59:47,054
I couldn't even get past page 1 0.

712
00:59:48,222 --> 00:59:52,434
I wasn't the only one
using Bishop Rushman's library.

713
00:59:52,643 --> 00:59:54,895
Everybody borrowed books
from Bishop Rushman.

714
00:59:55,103 --> 00:59:58,440
He encouraged it. Altar boys, staff,
everyone was in there.

715
00:59:58,649 --> 01:00:00,442
Guard.

716
01:00:10,452 --> 01:00:12,871
You don't give up, do you?

717
01:00:17,084 --> 01:00:20,963
- You didn't know anything about that?
- No.

718
01:00:21,171 --> 01:00:23,924
- What about the impact...?
- I can't talk right now.

719
01:00:24,132 --> 01:00:26,593
My office will call you, right? OK, bye.

720
01:00:26,802 --> 01:00:28,220
- Thanks.
- See you.

721
01:00:30,681 --> 01:00:32,224
Bye.

722
01:00:38,355 --> 01:00:40,816
What the fuck happened in there?

723
01:00:41,024 --> 01:00:43,819
I guess that 8 was a B after all.

724
01:00:45,404 --> 01:00:49,866
You think this is funny?
We're losing this case.

725
01:00:50,075 --> 01:00:51,868
What happened?
How could you've missed that?

726
01:00:52,077 --> 01:00:54,871
There are 50 of them,
plus the entire Chicago PD.

727
01:00:55,080 --> 01:00:57,583
How was I to know he had
a reading room in the basement?

728
01:00:57,791 --> 01:00:59,209
- It's your job.
- You want my job?!

729
01:00:59,418 --> 01:01:02,337
- No, I want you to do your job!
- Marty, come on.

730
01:01:03,964 --> 01:01:06,884
I'm working on a third-man defence.
Figured that out yet?

731
01:01:07,092 --> 01:01:12,097
I don't have a third man. Why?
Because you can't fucking find him!

732
01:01:12,306 --> 01:01:17,185
- Is it that hard to find one indigent kid?
- Maybe we already got the kid.

733
01:01:17,394 --> 01:01:20,898
We have to at least consider
the possibility that he did it.

734
01:01:21,106 --> 01:01:24,026
The evidence points towards him,
and you refuse to look at it.

735
01:01:24,234 --> 01:01:27,613
I'm not refusing to look at anything!
I don't think he did it!

736
01:01:28,697 --> 01:01:31,825
We're up there in a couple of days,
and we got dick!

737
01:01:32,034 --> 01:01:34,828
- Do your fucking jobs!
- Fuck!

738
01:01:49,635 --> 01:01:53,472
It must have been hard to come
to Chicago. You didn't know anybody.

739
01:01:55,098 --> 01:01:56,433
Nobody.

740
01:01:57,684 --> 01:01:59,770
Did you have any money?

741
01:01:59,978 --> 01:02:02,773
No, nothing.

742
01:02:04,024 --> 01:02:08,570
I wanna talk more about
your girlfriend, Linda. Can we, Aaron?

743
01:02:10,405 --> 01:02:12,407
- No.
- Why not?

744
01:02:17,037 --> 01:02:18,664
Aaron.

745
01:02:23,877 --> 01:02:26,505
Oh, I'm sorry.

746
01:02:28,715 --> 01:02:31,802
D-d-do you think
we can do this later?

747
01:02:32,010 --> 01:02:37,641
- No, I wanna stay with this a while.
- I'm just a li-li-little tired.

748
01:02:37,849 --> 01:02:41,228
I know. Why does talking about
Linda Forbes upset you?

749
01:02:41,436 --> 01:02:44,940
It d-d... It doesn't.

750
01:02:46,400 --> 01:02:49,486
I just don't want
to talk about it right now.

751
01:02:49,695 --> 01:02:55,200
- Why not? Are you all right?
- No, my head hurts.

752
01:02:56,743 --> 01:02:58,745
OK, I'm sorry. Let me just fix this.

753
01:03:04,418 --> 01:03:08,171
- You know what I can do with this?
- No, how the fuck should I know?

754
01:03:11,884 --> 01:03:13,802
Jesus Christ.

755
01:03:22,728 --> 01:03:24,396
Aaron?

756
01:03:33,572 --> 01:03:37,284
What? What were you saying?

757
01:06:30,832 --> 01:06:33,794
What do you want? I'll kill you!

758
01:06:34,002 --> 01:06:36,380
I don't think so, Alex. Drop it.

759
01:06:37,047 --> 01:06:38,590
Drop it.

760
01:06:43,095 --> 01:06:46,098
- Remember me, huh?!
- My name is Martin Vail.

761
01:06:46,306 --> 01:06:48,475
I don't give a fuck!
You have no right!

762
01:06:48,684 --> 01:06:53,146
Every fucking right! I'm Aaron
Stampler's attorney, you little shit!

763
01:06:53,355 --> 01:06:56,817
Now! What do you know
about the Archbishop's murder?

764
01:06:59,444 --> 01:07:02,406
- Nothing.
- Where do you think you're going?

765
01:07:02,614 --> 01:07:05,742
Bullshit! Don't fuck with us.

766
01:07:05,951 --> 01:07:08,704
I swear I know nothing.

767
01:07:08,912 --> 01:07:11,498
What were you doing at Aaron's
house? What were you looking for?

768
01:07:13,834 --> 01:07:16,670
- A tape.
- A tape? A videotape?

769
01:07:16,878 --> 01:07:18,922
- Yeah.
- Of what?

770
01:07:23,176 --> 01:07:26,763
- Sex stuff.
- Sex stuff?

771
01:07:26,972 --> 01:07:29,975
Do I have to draw a picture for you?

772
01:07:30,183 --> 01:07:31,560
Who?

773
01:07:31,768 --> 01:07:33,854
Who?!

774
01:07:34,062 --> 01:07:35,939
Me, Linda.

775
01:07:39,109 --> 01:07:43,071
- And Aaron?
- He shot it, too, for the Archbishop.

776
01:07:44,156 --> 01:07:45,490
Are you telling...

777
01:07:45,699 --> 01:07:50,829
Are you telling me that Archbishop
Rushman is involved with sex stuff?

778
01:07:51,038 --> 01:07:53,790
Yeah, he called it "purging the devil".

779
01:07:53,999 --> 01:07:57,252
He'd say a sermon for ten minutes,
and then he would tell us what to do.

780
01:07:57,461 --> 01:07:59,630
I don't give a fuck what you believe!

781
01:08:00,088 --> 01:08:04,509
Hey, hey, hey. What were you
going to do with the tape?

782
01:08:04,718 --> 01:08:07,930
Trash it. I was gonna throw it away.

783
01:08:08,138 --> 01:08:09,848
One. Just one tape.

784
01:08:10,057 --> 01:08:12,517
One tape.
He'd keep recording over and over.

785
01:08:12,726 --> 01:08:14,853
- Why did you think Aaron had this?
- I don't know.

786
01:08:15,062 --> 01:08:18,148
I thought he got it,
and he went back and killed him.

787
01:08:18,357 --> 01:08:21,610
- He did kill him, right?
- No, he didn't.

788
01:08:23,987 --> 01:08:25,739
Where's this girl? Where's Linda?

789
01:08:32,120 --> 01:08:35,165
She freaked out!
She panicked. She split.

790
01:08:35,374 --> 01:08:37,834
And I'm not expecting any postcards.

791
01:08:43,465 --> 01:08:45,509
Look at me.

792
01:08:56,436 --> 01:09:00,107
Get him out of here, Tommy.

793
01:09:00,315 --> 01:09:02,693
- Where to?
- A warm bunk and three meals a day.

794
01:09:02,901 --> 01:09:07,155
- You can't arrest me! You're no cop!
- I used to be. Does that work for you?

795
01:09:35,058 --> 01:09:38,103
- Look who's here.
- Finish it. It's a good article.

796
01:09:38,312 --> 01:09:40,689
You know the rules.
Don't disturb anything,

797
01:09:40,898 --> 01:09:43,275
don't remove anything or it's my ass.

798
01:09:43,483 --> 01:09:46,320
Yeah, mine too. I won't touch anything.

799
01:10:46,213 --> 01:10:47,881
Excuse me.

800
01:10:57,516 --> 01:10:59,601
...preach the gospel to every...

801
01:11:05,315 --> 01:11:07,150
Hello.

802
01:11:08,610 --> 01:11:10,571
- What are you watching?
- Wait a minute.

803
01:11:10,779 --> 01:11:12,864
Go to her.

804
01:11:13,073 --> 01:11:16,243
Good. Now help her.

805
01:11:18,745 --> 01:11:21,790
That's it, Aaron. Good.

806
01:11:21,999 --> 01:11:24,626
Linda, help out.

807
01:11:24,835 --> 01:11:27,838
Good. Take offher blouse, Aaron.

808
01:11:29,965 --> 01:11:34,595
That's it. Now help him, Linda.

809
01:11:34,803 --> 01:11:38,265
Isn't that sweet, Linda? Good.

810
01:11:38,473 --> 01:11:41,560
That's it.
Now, take him in your mouth.

811
01:11:41,768 --> 01:11:43,896
Here's motive.

812
01:11:44,813 --> 01:11:46,815
Take her from behind.

813
01:11:47,024 --> 01:11:50,569
- Aaron, take her from behind.
- Jesus Christ.

814
01:11:54,698 --> 01:11:56,325
Thanks.

815
01:12:05,751 --> 01:12:08,545
- I wanna talk to you alone.
- We should discuss...

816
01:12:08,754 --> 01:12:11,381
I need to be alone with my client.

817
01:12:23,018 --> 01:12:25,437
Do you trust me?

818
01:12:27,314 --> 01:12:29,608
Yes, yes, of course I do.

819
01:12:29,816 --> 01:12:32,319
Good. Because I don't trust you.

820
01:12:37,950 --> 01:12:40,494
I'll lay it all out for you.

821
01:12:43,163 --> 01:12:48,001
I'm losing this case because
my fucking client is lying to me.

822
01:12:48,210 --> 01:12:51,755
- I never, never lied...
- Bullshit!

823
01:12:53,298 --> 01:12:56,051
No more bullshit. No more games.

824
01:12:57,469 --> 01:12:59,263
Everybody thinks you did this,
everybody.

825
01:12:59,471 --> 01:13:01,932
Only I believe you,
and I'm that close.

826
01:13:02,140 --> 01:13:06,019
So I want it all out.
Right now, right here.

827
01:13:07,688 --> 01:13:09,940
Did you underline that book?

828
01:13:10,649 --> 01:13:13,652
Hey, hey, look at me.
Did you underline that book?

829
01:13:13,860 --> 01:13:17,614
- N-n-no, I didn't.
- I don't believe you.

830
01:13:18,198 --> 01:13:20,117
- That's bullshit.
- I told...

831
01:13:20,325 --> 01:13:23,453
I don't believe you! I saw the tape!

832
01:13:24,955 --> 01:13:28,458
I saw the tape. I know what he did
to you. I wanna hear it from you.

833
01:13:28,667 --> 01:13:30,377
No! No!

834
01:13:30,586 --> 01:13:33,505
Don't do this.
I want you to tell me the truth.

835
01:13:33,714 --> 01:13:36,216
- You fucking killed him! You did it!
- No!

836
01:13:36,425 --> 01:13:39,428
You're so full of shit! You did it!
Tell me the truth. Don't lie.

837
01:13:39,636 --> 01:13:41,346
You little fuck! You killed him!

838
01:13:41,555 --> 01:13:44,141
- You son of a bitch! You killed him!
- No!

839
01:13:44,641 --> 01:13:46,310
What do you want from me now?

840
01:13:46,518 --> 01:13:49,855
Quit crying! I can't understand
a word you're saying.

841
01:13:50,063 --> 01:13:52,024
You little sissy! You make me sick!

842
01:13:56,320 --> 01:13:59,156
- Look here. Who the fuck are you?
- Who the fuck are you?

843
01:13:59,364 --> 01:14:02,576
This is my cell! Who the fuck are you?

844
01:14:05,954 --> 01:14:09,583
I got you now. You're the lawyer.

845
01:14:11,126 --> 01:14:14,671
You're a lawyer, ain't you? With
your fancy suit. I heard about you.

846
01:14:15,923 --> 01:14:19,468
My, my, you sure fucked
this one up, counsellor.

847
01:14:19,676 --> 01:14:23,764
Sounds like they're gonna shoot Aaron
so full of poison it'll come out his eyes!

848
01:14:25,349 --> 01:14:27,976
- Where is Aaron?
- He's crying in a corner somewhere.

849
01:14:28,185 --> 01:14:31,313
You scared him off!
You got to deal with me now, boy.

850
01:14:32,189 --> 01:14:35,025
I ought to give you
a beating on principle. Look at me.

851
01:14:35,234 --> 01:14:40,197
You pull that tough-guy shit on Aaron
again, I'll kick your ass to Sunday!

852
01:14:40,405 --> 01:14:43,533
- Do you understand me?
- I understand you.

853
01:14:43,742 --> 01:14:47,287
Aaron gets in trouble, he calls you.
You're the man.

854
01:14:47,496 --> 01:14:49,498
Aaron couldn't kick his own ass.

855
01:14:49,706 --> 01:14:52,542
You seen him with the "da-da-da".

856
01:14:53,210 --> 01:14:54,962
Yeah.

857
01:14:55,170 --> 01:14:57,047
Jesus Christ, he can't handle anything.

858
01:14:57,256 --> 01:15:00,759
He sure couldn't handle
all that preacher's blood.

859
01:15:00,968 --> 01:15:03,470
If he'd done like I told him,
we wouldn't be in this mess.

860
01:15:03,679 --> 01:15:06,014
But he got scared and "da".

861
01:15:06,223 --> 01:15:09,685
Ran off and got himself caught,
the stupid little shit.

862
01:15:09,893 --> 01:15:12,980
So Aaron did kill Rushman.

863
01:15:13,188 --> 01:15:16,024
Hell no! Jesus Christ,
where did they find you?

864
01:15:16,233 --> 01:15:21,530
Haven't you listened to me?
Aaron doesn't have guts to do nothing.

865
01:15:21,738 --> 01:15:23,365
It was me, boy.

866
01:15:25,200 --> 01:15:27,869
- It was you.
- Yes, it was.

867
01:15:28,912 --> 01:15:33,041
He came crying to me like always,
stuttering and whining.

868
01:15:33,250 --> 01:15:37,796
"I ca-can't take it no more, Roy.
You g-got to help me."

869
01:15:38,005 --> 01:15:39,965
"Please, please, Roy."

870
01:15:40,173 --> 01:15:45,470
I said, "Shut your mouth! Grow up.
Be a man. Take care of yourself."

871
01:15:48,932 --> 01:15:51,435
So your name is Roy?

872
01:15:51,643 --> 01:15:55,689
Oh, Jesus, I'm sorry. Yeah.
What is it? Marty?

873
01:15:55,898 --> 01:15:58,066
Marty, I'm dying for a smoke.
Do you have a cigarette?

874
01:15:58,275 --> 01:16:01,236
- No, I quit.
- Fuck that.

875
01:16:02,654 --> 01:16:04,740
Can't live without them.
Got to be a butt here.

876
01:16:04,948 --> 01:16:06,533
Roy.

877
01:16:07,534 --> 01:16:10,996
Roy, tell me about Linda.

878
01:16:12,831 --> 01:16:15,667
Linda?
Who the fuck cares about Linda?

879
01:16:15,876 --> 01:16:18,420
I care about Linda.
I'd like to know about her.

880
01:16:18,629 --> 01:16:22,799
That little tramp. Everybody
had a piece of her, you know.

881
01:16:23,008 --> 01:16:26,887
She had Aaron wrapped up so tight,
he thought she was his girlfriend.

882
01:16:27,095 --> 01:16:28,680
She broke his heart.

883
01:16:28,889 --> 01:16:33,977
So that's why you had to kill Rushman.
Because of the sex stuff.

884
01:16:36,813 --> 01:16:39,191
You've seen the tape.

885
01:16:41,401 --> 01:16:43,195
Answer me, you son of a bitch!

886
01:16:44,154 --> 01:16:49,618
Do you think I'm playing with you?
I will break your fucking neck!

887
01:16:49,826 --> 01:16:53,247
- I'll ask again. Have you seen it?
- Of course I saw the tape.

888
01:16:53,455 --> 01:16:58,085
Dammit, I told him, "Get that tape.
It's motive, you asshole!"

889
01:16:58,293 --> 01:17:01,713
This'll fuck everýthing up.
Don't you show that to anyone!

890
01:17:01,922 --> 01:17:03,882
- Do you understand me?!
- Yeah.

891
01:17:04,800 --> 01:17:06,176
- Aaron.
- Damn!

892
01:17:49,595 --> 01:17:51,597
Mist...

893
01:17:51,805 --> 01:17:53,473
Mister Vail?

894
01:17:59,688 --> 01:18:02,691
Yeah, I'm right here, Aaron.

895
01:18:26,590 --> 01:18:30,052
He did it. The little fuck did it.

896
01:18:32,679 --> 01:18:34,598
How could I have missed that?

897
01:18:34,806 --> 01:18:37,768
- Am I gonna need stitches?
- No.

898
01:18:40,437 --> 01:18:44,775
He didn't do it. Aaron has no idea
what just happened in there.

899
01:18:44,983 --> 01:18:46,902
I kept seeing the signs. The big ones.

900
01:18:47,110 --> 01:18:51,281
Abusive background, these repeated
blackouts, the ellipses in thought.

901
01:18:51,490 --> 01:18:54,451
He's ambidextrous. I tried to tell you.

902
01:18:54,660 --> 01:19:00,332
You may be thrilled by all this,
but I'm fucked. I don't have a case.

903
01:19:00,540 --> 01:19:05,754
Textbook multiple personality disorder.
Put me on the stand. I'll testify.

904
01:19:05,963 --> 01:19:07,673
He's insane.

905
01:19:08,423 --> 01:19:13,637
I can't. I can't change plea
in the middle of a trial.

906
01:19:14,513 --> 01:19:20,477
The judge would never allow it.
Insanity is the hardest thing to prove.

907
01:19:20,686 --> 01:19:23,105
OK.

908
01:19:23,313 --> 01:19:26,024
My professional opinion.

909
01:19:26,233 --> 01:19:29,361
This is not a criminal
we're dealing with. He's a sick kid.

910
01:19:29,570 --> 01:19:32,906
He's sitting in a cell,
and that's not where he belongs.

911
01:19:40,080 --> 01:19:41,790
You got an aspirin?

912
01:20:40,349 --> 01:20:43,310
Come on, Connerman, ask it.

913
01:20:43,518 --> 01:20:45,395
Ask what?

914
01:20:47,147 --> 01:20:50,609
The question
you wanted to ask me before.

915
01:20:50,817 --> 01:20:53,028
I don't understand, Mr Vail.

916
01:20:53,237 --> 01:20:57,574
"How can you defend someone
if you know they did it?"

917
01:20:57,783 --> 01:21:02,412
"How can you defend these
fucking scumbags?" Isn't that it?

918
01:21:02,621 --> 01:21:04,873
All those fucking coy questions,
all that bullshit.

919
01:21:05,082 --> 01:21:08,293
Bottom line is:
"How can you do what you do?"

920
01:21:14,091 --> 01:21:17,261
You think it's the money, don't you?

921
01:21:18,971 --> 01:21:23,642
The money's nice.
The money's very, very nice, Jack.

922
01:21:23,850 --> 01:21:27,563
The first thing I ask a new client is:

923
01:21:27,771 --> 01:21:29,856
"You been saving up for a rainy day?"

924
01:21:30,065 --> 01:21:33,944
"Guess what? It's raining."

925
01:21:36,113 --> 01:21:39,116
You think it's because I want to see
my face on magazine covers?

926
01:21:40,826 --> 01:21:46,999
My 1 5 seconds on TV? I love it.
I fucking love that shit. I really do.

927
01:21:47,207 --> 01:21:49,459
But guess what?

928
01:21:49,668 --> 01:21:51,503
It's not it.

929
01:21:55,090 --> 01:21:57,885
- You go to Las Vegas?
- Yeah.

930
01:21:58,093 --> 01:22:01,388
I don't go to Vegas.
Why don't I go to Vegas?

931
01:22:01,597 --> 01:22:04,016
Marty, it's late.
I think we should just get up and...

932
01:22:04,224 --> 01:22:08,353
Why gamble with money when you
can gamble with people's lives?

933
01:22:11,481 --> 01:22:13,525
That was a joke.

934
01:22:16,028 --> 01:22:18,989
All right, I'll tell you.

935
01:22:23,493 --> 01:22:28,457
I believe in the notion that people
are innocent until proven guilty.

936
01:22:28,665 --> 01:22:32,294
I believe in that notion
because I choose to believe

937
01:22:32,502 --> 01:22:35,881
in the basic goodness of people.

938
01:22:36,089 --> 01:22:41,053
I choose to believe that not all crimes
are committed by bad people.

939
01:22:41,261 --> 01:22:44,181
And I try to understand

940
01:22:44,389 --> 01:22:48,393
that some very good people
do some very bad things.

941
01:23:04,284 --> 01:23:07,371
You know when I was working
for Shaughnessy,

942
01:23:07,579 --> 01:23:11,250
I did something very, very bad.

943
01:23:11,458 --> 01:23:15,879
Illegal. I was a prosecutor then.

944
01:23:16,088 --> 01:23:20,842
This thing I did. I was very upset by it
and decided to leave.

945
01:23:21,051 --> 01:23:25,097
So I left.
I became a defending attorney.

946
01:23:25,305 --> 01:23:29,226
The irony being that everyone
assumed I was lying anyhow.

947
01:23:29,434 --> 01:23:32,729
I made myself this little promise that...

948
01:23:35,440 --> 01:23:39,027
...l would reserve my lies
for other than my public life.

949
01:23:51,748 --> 01:23:55,085
You print any of this,
I'll sue your fucking ass.

950
01:24:21,570 --> 01:24:24,489
- All right, so I made a little mistake.
- No shit.

951
01:24:25,908 --> 01:24:29,036
What do you want? A new suit?
I'll buy you a new suit.

952
01:24:29,244 --> 01:24:32,748
You made a mistake?
You told us the third man did it.

953
01:24:32,956 --> 01:24:36,126
You got your third man.
And a fourth man and a fifth man...

954
01:24:36,335 --> 01:24:38,712
What are you going to do, Marty?

955
01:24:38,921 --> 01:24:41,632
I don't know. I really fucked up here.

956
01:24:42,507 --> 01:24:44,468
You were right.

957
01:24:44,676 --> 01:24:49,473
- So how are you gonna get him off?
- I don't know.

958
01:24:51,099 --> 01:24:54,895
What I know is that Aaron did
not commit first-degree murder.

959
01:24:55,103 --> 01:24:58,148
- He stabbed him a billion times...
- Not Aaron.

960
01:24:58,357 --> 01:25:03,153
To convict someone of a capital crime
the State must prove intent.

961
01:25:03,362 --> 01:25:07,282
- Roy had intent, Aaron didn't.
- Then you have to plead insanity...

962
01:25:07,491 --> 01:25:10,786
...which we can't do mid-trial,
unless you plan a career change.

963
01:25:10,994 --> 01:25:13,413
I could've been mistaken,
but I wasn't wrong.

964
01:25:13,622 --> 01:25:17,042
Aaron is innocent.
It's Roy who is guilty.

965
01:25:17,251 --> 01:25:19,169
He doesn't need a lawyer,
he needs an exorcist.

966
01:25:19,378 --> 01:25:22,464
You're full of shit.
You weren't there. You didn't see it.

967
01:25:22,673 --> 01:25:27,636
He's one sick boy who's been fucked
around by his father, by his priest.

968
01:25:27,844 --> 01:25:32,599
It's our job to make sure the jury
believes he doesn't deserve to die.

969
01:25:32,808 --> 01:25:35,519
- OK.
- OK. How do we do it?

970
01:25:37,354 --> 01:25:40,482
By somehow introducing
this whole abuse thing.

971
01:25:46,947 --> 01:25:51,076
- The tape.
- That's crazy. That gives him motive.

972
01:25:51,285 --> 01:25:54,496
No, it looks like that, but it's...

973
01:25:54,705 --> 01:25:58,625
No, actually,
it turns this whole thing around.

974
01:25:58,834 --> 01:26:03,005
It gives concrete documentation
of what Rushman did to this kid.

975
01:26:03,213 --> 01:26:05,424
But we can't put it in. You know that.

976
01:26:07,301 --> 01:26:09,386
But we're not going to.

977
01:26:16,226 --> 01:26:18,395
Oh, fuck!

978
01:26:25,903 --> 01:26:28,780
- OK.
- Good.

979
01:27:04,524 --> 01:27:08,028
What the hell are you doing?
You know damn well who it is.

980
01:27:08,237 --> 01:27:10,489
- Barleycorn's, Marty. Now.
- Janet?

981
01:27:10,697 --> 01:27:13,158
Cute porno. Part of your collection?

982
01:27:27,631 --> 01:27:28,966
Hey.

983
01:27:30,467 --> 01:27:33,554
Where did you get it? Steal it?

984
01:27:33,762 --> 01:27:35,764
- From the crime scene?
- I don't know anything...

985
01:27:35,973 --> 01:27:38,225
- You are such a liar.
- Think about it.

986
01:27:38,433 --> 01:27:41,979
If it contains that,
I wouldn't give it to you. It's motive.

987
01:27:42,187 --> 01:27:43,605
You had to give it to me.

988
01:27:43,814 --> 01:27:48,151
If you introduced it, the jury'd despise
you for dishonouring the bishop.

989
01:27:48,360 --> 01:27:52,656
If you get me to show it, motive or
no motive, I'm the one who looks bad,

990
01:27:52,864 --> 01:27:57,160
and you gain sympathy
for your poor, little, abused boy.

991
01:27:58,036 --> 01:27:59,746
- You think so?
- I hate you.

992
01:28:02,791 --> 01:28:04,126
Don't use it.

993
01:28:06,253 --> 01:28:09,047
I have no intention of using it.

994
01:28:10,799 --> 01:28:13,844
- The usual, Stu.
- You got it.

995
01:28:19,266 --> 01:28:22,269
- You're up to even more than that.
- I'm not up to anything.

996
01:28:22,477 --> 01:28:26,648
You're opening a door for me with
a tiger on the other end, and I don't...

997
01:28:26,857 --> 01:28:29,693
You know who you'd really upset?
Shaughnessy.

998
01:28:29,902 --> 01:28:31,695
- Fuck him.
- Fuck him?

999
01:28:31,904 --> 01:28:34,323
Fuck you.

1000
01:28:37,242 --> 01:28:39,494
Thanks a lot.

1001
01:28:41,788 --> 01:28:45,584
- If this is not your motive, what is?
- I have motive.

1002
01:28:46,335 --> 01:28:48,045
Yeah, what is it?

1003
01:28:49,588 --> 01:28:52,382
I'm really gonna tell you.

1004
01:28:52,591 --> 01:28:55,135
Better tell the jury soon.
Time's running out.

1005
01:28:55,344 --> 01:28:56,845
Here you go.

1006
01:28:59,139 --> 01:29:01,934
You think you've got me, huh?

1007
01:29:03,435 --> 01:29:09,608
You think because you know me as
well as you do, you know how I think.

1008
01:29:09,816 --> 01:29:12,736
Well, I know how you think.

1009
01:29:18,242 --> 01:29:20,577
You know what I'm thinking?

1010
01:29:26,124 --> 01:29:28,627
What happened to your face?

1011
01:29:28,835 --> 01:29:33,048
I... I bumped it
in a medicine cabinet.

1012
01:29:38,136 --> 01:29:41,515
No, that was a girl on her way out.

1013
01:29:47,020 --> 01:29:50,816
- We should come back here later.
- They close in ten minutes.

1014
01:29:51,024 --> 01:29:53,026
No, after.

1015
01:29:53,235 --> 01:29:55,362
After the trial.

1016
01:29:56,572 --> 01:29:58,782
When we got nothing to lose.

1017
01:30:02,619 --> 01:30:05,914
How can your timing
be so good in a courtroom

1018
01:30:06,123 --> 01:30:08,584
and so bad in real life?

1019
01:30:11,503 --> 01:30:16,258
I'll think about it later.
I hate you too much right now.

1020
01:30:27,269 --> 01:30:29,730
You got a visitor.

1021
01:30:30,397 --> 01:30:32,482
Here she comes.

1022
01:30:34,443 --> 01:30:36,820
Talk to you later.

1023
01:30:37,029 --> 01:30:39,031
Janet.

1024
01:30:39,239 --> 01:30:41,199
Morning.

1025
01:30:44,620 --> 01:30:47,080
So where's the tape?

1026
01:30:47,289 --> 01:30:49,958
There's some pretty ugly stuff
on that tape.

1027
01:30:50,167 --> 01:30:53,503
- Yes, there is.
- Who would've thought?

1028
01:30:55,505 --> 01:30:59,635
- Where did it come from?
- Landed on my front door. No note.

1029
01:30:59,843 --> 01:31:01,845
- Vail?
- Who else?

1030
01:31:02,054 --> 01:31:04,556
Clever prick.

1031
01:31:04,765 --> 01:31:07,017
What do you think he's up to?

1032
01:31:07,226 --> 01:31:09,436
- I honestly don't know.
- Cut the crap.

1033
01:31:09,645 --> 01:31:12,272
You know him well.
You were balling him.

1034
01:31:14,775 --> 01:31:16,735
- Where is it?
- At home.

1035
01:31:20,113 --> 01:31:22,449
I have some advice for you.

1036
01:31:22,658 --> 01:31:26,453
If you have aspirations beyond
this particular office,

1037
01:31:26,662 --> 01:31:30,332
pick up your handbag,
go home and destroy this tape

1038
01:31:30,540 --> 01:31:33,377
you should've destroyed, like I did.

1039
01:31:34,962 --> 01:31:36,922
You don't think Vail has a copy?

1040
01:31:37,130 --> 01:31:40,092
You don't think there's an original?

1041
01:31:43,470 --> 01:31:46,390
Stampler is on trial,
not the Catholic church.

1042
01:31:46,598 --> 01:31:50,310
If you haven't found another motive
to hang him on, God help you.

1043
01:32:01,280 --> 01:32:03,949
All rise.

1044
01:32:05,033 --> 01:32:07,578
Please, sit down.

1045
01:32:11,915 --> 01:32:14,167
Madame Prosecutor.

1046
01:32:19,840 --> 01:32:21,633
Miss Venable.

1047
01:32:23,051 --> 01:32:26,346
The State calls Thomas Goodman.

1048
01:32:26,555 --> 01:32:27,890
Objection, Your Honour.

1049
01:32:28,098 --> 01:32:31,810
Prosecution knows Mr Goodman
is my investigator in this case,

1050
01:32:32,019 --> 01:32:34,897
and under the Work Product Rule
he can't be compelled to testify.

1051
01:32:35,105 --> 01:32:37,482
- Permission to approach the bench?
- Granted.

1052
01:32:44,656 --> 01:32:48,619
I have important evidence
which the witness can authenticate.

1053
01:32:48,827 --> 01:32:54,249
That's Mr Vail's privilege. If he doesn't
want Goodman to testify, he won't.

1054
01:32:54,458 --> 01:32:57,085
Make a decision, Mr Vail.

1055
01:32:59,880 --> 01:33:03,050
- You ever been to my apartment?
- No.

1056
01:33:03,258 --> 01:33:06,678
- By that I mean my apartment building.
- Allegedly.

1057
01:33:06,887 --> 01:33:11,475
I'm sorry. You have or you haven't.
"Allegedly" doesn't figure into it.

1058
01:33:12,309 --> 01:33:15,604
I have...been there, yes.

1059
01:33:15,812 --> 01:33:19,233
- Why did you go there?
- I was delivering something.

1060
01:33:19,441 --> 01:33:21,735
For whom?

1061
01:33:23,111 --> 01:33:24,363
Martin Vail.

1062
01:33:24,571 --> 01:33:28,700
Mr Vail sent you
to deliver something to me.

1063
01:33:28,909 --> 01:33:31,411
- Yes.
- What was it?

1064
01:33:32,913 --> 01:33:34,248
A video tape.

1065
01:33:34,456 --> 01:33:37,626
Could this be the tape
you delivered for Mr Vail?

1066
01:33:37,834 --> 01:33:39,670
I have a feeling it is, yes.

1067
01:33:39,878 --> 01:33:43,006
The People place
this video tape in evidence.

1068
01:33:43,257 --> 01:33:44,841
So ordered. Please index.

1069
01:33:45,092 --> 01:33:49,137
Where did Mr Vail get this tape,
if it is the same one?

1070
01:33:49,388 --> 01:33:53,183
He took it from the closet
of Archbishop Rushman.

1071
01:33:53,392 --> 01:33:55,102
- Stole it.
- Borrowed it.

1072
01:33:55,310 --> 01:33:58,897
Once I made the transfer for him,
I returned it.

1073
01:33:59,106 --> 01:34:01,567
Can you describe what's on the tape?

1074
01:34:01,775 --> 01:34:06,655
There was a sermon
by Archbishop Rushman, a rehearsal,

1075
01:34:06,863 --> 01:34:08,615
followed by...

1076
01:34:11,535 --> 01:34:15,581
- ..a kind of home movie.
- A home movie? Of what?

1077
01:34:15,831 --> 01:34:17,207
- Some altar boys.
- And?

1078
01:34:18,792 --> 01:34:20,294
- A girl.
- Doing what?

1079
01:34:23,297 --> 01:34:26,425
An altar boy lesson of some kind?

1080
01:34:28,010 --> 01:34:30,137
Having sex.

1081
01:34:31,221 --> 01:34:33,015
Quiet.

1082
01:34:33,265 --> 01:34:36,226
A porno movie.

1083
01:34:36,476 --> 01:34:37,769
- Mm, yes.
- Yes. Now.

1084
01:34:38,020 --> 01:34:43,025
How is it that this tape, this porno tape,

1085
01:34:43,275 --> 01:34:47,070
was in the Archbishop's closet
in order for Vail to find it there?

1086
01:34:47,321 --> 01:34:51,199
- He was the...director.
- Who was?

1087
01:34:51,450 --> 01:34:55,037
- Archbishop Rushman.
- Quiet!

1088
01:34:56,997 --> 01:35:02,002
And was the defendant one of
the altar boys performing in the movie?

1089
01:35:03,670 --> 01:35:08,216
- Yes, he was.
- Was his girlfriend, Linda Forbes?

1090
01:35:09,384 --> 01:35:10,719
Yes, she was.

1091
01:35:10,969 --> 01:35:14,598
Did it appear to you
that the defendant was enjoying

1092
01:35:14,848 --> 01:35:17,517
performing in this film
with his girlfriend?

1093
01:35:17,726 --> 01:35:19,853
No, he does not.

1094
01:35:20,771 --> 01:35:24,608
I will not ask you if you
think we've uncovered motive here.

1095
01:35:24,858 --> 01:35:29,488
We will decide that for ourselves
once we've all seen the video tape.

1096
01:35:30,364 --> 01:35:33,033
No further questions.

1097
01:35:34,201 --> 01:35:37,663
Does Defence wish to cross?

1098
01:35:39,998 --> 01:35:42,459
- No, Your Honour.
- Court's in recess.

1099
01:35:42,709 --> 01:35:46,463
Bailiff, please set up for the tape.
Mr Goodman, you're excused.

1100
01:35:51,009 --> 01:35:53,595
Thanks for the advice.

1101
01:35:59,142 --> 01:36:02,646
- Mr Vail said she was your girlfriend.
- Yes, she was.

1102
01:36:02,896 --> 01:36:07,693
- How did you meet?
- We were both at the Savior House.

1103
01:36:07,943 --> 01:36:10,362
I was an altar boy,

1104
01:36:10,612 --> 01:36:15,742
and she was working
for Bishop Rushman.

1105
01:36:15,993 --> 01:36:18,161
Doing what?

1106
01:36:23,792 --> 01:36:26,753
Were you sleeping
with anyone else at the time?

1107
01:36:27,004 --> 01:36:29,548
- No, no.
- Was she?

1108
01:36:31,925 --> 01:36:34,303
N-n-no.

1109
01:36:35,971 --> 01:36:38,432
Has she been to see you, Aaron?

1110
01:36:38,682 --> 01:36:42,060
Yeah. Yeah, I'm still here.

1111
01:36:44,479 --> 01:36:46,023
What?

1112
01:37:29,816 --> 01:37:33,070
Mr Vail, are you prepared to proceed
with your first witness?

1113
01:37:46,083 --> 01:37:49,461
Yes, Your Honour.
The Defence calls John Shaughnessy.

1114
01:37:54,925 --> 01:37:57,678
The People object. Mr Shaughnessy
has never been identified as...

1115
01:37:57,928 --> 01:38:01,473
- Your Honour, may I approach?
- Yes, you may.

1116
01:38:05,102 --> 01:38:09,606
My client is on trial for his life. He
maintains there was a third person.

1117
01:38:09,856 --> 01:38:12,317
Can Mr Shaughnessy confirm that?

1118
01:38:12,568 --> 01:38:15,904
The US Constitution
takes precedence here,

1119
01:38:16,154 --> 01:38:19,074
permitting calling any witness
to prove innocence.

1120
01:38:19,283 --> 01:38:23,912
That's stated in the Sixth Amendment
and profound in Brady vs. Maryland.

1121
01:38:26,039 --> 01:38:31,545
Mr Shaughnessy, you sit on the board
of the Rushman Foundation?

1122
01:38:31,753 --> 01:38:33,755
I am an honorary board member.

1123
01:38:34,006 --> 01:38:37,175
Explain the nature
and purpose of this foundation.

1124
01:38:37,384 --> 01:38:39,511
It was founded by the late Archbishop.

1125
01:38:39,761 --> 01:38:44,141
Its purpose is to invest in projects
for the greater good of the community.

1126
01:38:44,349 --> 01:38:47,185
The greater good of the community,
OK.

1127
01:38:47,436 --> 01:38:51,189
Would that be true
in the case of the now bankrupt...

1128
01:38:51,440 --> 01:38:54,776
- ...South River Housing Development?
- Yes.

1129
01:38:55,027 --> 01:38:59,239
Could you tell the court why the South
River project was abandoned?

1130
01:38:59,489 --> 01:39:02,242
There was a difference of opinion
as to the costs.

1131
01:39:02,492 --> 01:39:05,162
Wasn't there also
a difference of opinion

1132
01:39:05,370 --> 01:39:08,457
between the investors
and the late Archbishop?

1133
01:39:08,707 --> 01:39:12,044
- I don't recall.
- You don't...

1134
01:39:13,170 --> 01:39:16,006
What kind of money
are we talking about?

1135
01:39:18,717 --> 01:39:25,349
How much money was invested
in this failed South River enterprise?

1136
01:39:29,353 --> 01:39:32,356
- 60 million dollars.
- Quiet.

1137
01:39:32,606 --> 01:39:34,566
60 million dollars!

1138
01:39:36,443 --> 01:39:38,737
Wow, that's a lot of money.

1139
01:39:39,738 --> 01:39:42,741
You and the Archbishop
have been friends for 20 years?

1140
01:39:42,950 --> 01:39:46,119
- You knew each other well.
- That's right.

1141
01:39:46,370 --> 01:39:50,415
- Did that tape's content surprise you?
- Yes, of course.

1142
01:39:50,624 --> 01:39:54,253
You've never heard any allegations
against the Archbishop?

1143
01:39:54,503 --> 01:39:55,963
Not that I recall, no.

1144
01:39:56,171 --> 01:39:59,341
Especially since you were State's
Attorney for the last 1 5 years,

1145
01:39:59,591 --> 01:40:03,971
you've supervised all prosecutions
in Cook County during that time,

1146
01:40:04,221 --> 01:40:07,224
especially the prosecutions
of prominent figures.

1147
01:40:07,474 --> 01:40:11,061
I also have a staff of
a thousand of the best prosecutors...

1148
01:40:11,270 --> 01:40:15,566
As State's Attorney
it was up to you, ultimately, to decide...

1149
01:40:15,774 --> 01:40:18,527
- ...who would be indicted.
- Yes.

1150
01:40:21,363 --> 01:40:23,574
Let me just take you back now.

1151
01:40:23,782 --> 01:40:28,161
Let's go back to June 1 985.

1152
01:40:29,371 --> 01:40:32,457
Do you recall any allegations
of sexual misconduct...

1153
01:40:32,708 --> 01:40:36,420
- ...against the Archbishop then?
- I don't recall that, no.

1154
01:40:36,670 --> 01:40:41,049
Do you recall a young man
by the name of Michael O'Donnell

1155
01:40:41,300 --> 01:40:45,679
who came to the felony review unit
at your office?

1156
01:40:49,683 --> 01:40:52,936
I have no idea
what you're talking about.

1157
01:40:53,145 --> 01:40:59,860
That's confusing because a document
from the Chicago Metropolitan Police

1158
01:41:00,110 --> 01:41:06,116
says that Michael O'Donnell spoke
to the supervisor for two weeks,

1159
01:41:06,366 --> 01:41:10,746
explaining sexual abuse he suffered
at the hands of Archbishop Rushman.

1160
01:41:12,456 --> 01:41:17,628
Isn't it also true, Mr State's Attorney,
that you then decided that your friend

1161
01:41:17,878 --> 01:41:21,924
was not going to stand trial
for any of it?

1162
01:41:22,132 --> 01:41:23,926
He owed you big time, John.

1163
01:41:24,134 --> 01:41:27,387
You must have been pissed off
when he pulled out of South River.

1164
01:41:28,388 --> 01:41:32,684
He just said, "I can't take it any more"?
He said, "No!"

1165
01:41:32,893 --> 01:41:36,855
You and your investors
had 60 million reasons to kill him!

1166
01:41:37,105 --> 01:41:40,359
- You little cocksucker!
- That's it. Witness dismissed.

1167
01:41:40,609 --> 01:41:44,196
- Vail, in my chambers now.
- That's for Joey Pinero, shithead.

1168
01:41:49,409 --> 01:41:51,995
Start looking for a job.

1169
01:42:01,046 --> 01:42:06,009
You think you can use my courtroom to
wage vendettas and settle old scores,

1170
01:42:06,218 --> 01:42:08,178
you are sorely mistaken.

1171
01:42:08,428 --> 01:42:11,598
I'm striking Shaughnessy's testimony
from the record as irrelevant,

1172
01:42:11,848 --> 01:42:15,102
and I'm holding you in contempt
to the tune of 1 0,000 dollars.

1173
01:42:15,352 --> 01:42:19,106
You're saying that I can't get
a fair trial in your courtroom?

1174
01:42:19,314 --> 01:42:22,484
Be very careful, Mr Vail.
You're on dangerous ground.

1175
01:42:22,693 --> 01:42:25,070
You want the cheque
made out to you?

1176
01:42:25,320 --> 01:42:27,864
You want me to take you off this case?

1177
01:42:28,115 --> 01:42:31,368
You're making a mockery of
my courtroom, and I won't allow it.

1178
01:42:31,618 --> 01:42:37,291
I suggest you start representing your
client and stop representing yourself.

1179
01:42:46,216 --> 01:42:49,803
- Can we do this later?
- No, I want to stay with this.

1180
01:42:51,054 --> 01:42:55,350
- I'm feeling very, very tired.
- Yeah, I know.

1181
01:42:55,601 --> 01:42:57,728
Why does talking
about Linda Forbes upset you?

1182
01:42:57,978 --> 01:42:59,938
It doesn't. Ijust...

1183
01:43:02,232 --> 01:43:04,985
- OK.
- I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

1184
01:43:08,572 --> 01:43:13,118
- You know what I can do with this?
- How the fuck should I know!

1185
01:43:21,960 --> 01:43:26,089
Dr Arrington, how much time
have you spent with Aaron Stampler?

1186
01:43:26,298 --> 01:43:30,427
- Around 60 hours.
- What did you find in your evaluation?

1187
01:43:30,636 --> 01:43:34,389
Mr Stampler suffers from
an acute disassociative condition.

1188
01:43:34,598 --> 01:43:38,602
- Multiple personality disorder.
- Objection, Your Honour.

1189
01:43:38,810 --> 01:43:41,188
She's only stating
what she's personally observed.

1190
01:43:41,396 --> 01:43:43,523
- Your Honour.
- Counsellors.

1191
01:43:45,442 --> 01:43:48,779
- I know what you're doing.
- Excuse us for a minute?

1192
01:43:50,781 --> 01:43:53,408
If he wants to question
his client's sanity...

1193
01:43:53,617 --> 01:43:56,161
I'm trying to establish
a medical basis for amnesia.

1194
01:43:56,370 --> 01:43:59,539
That's not what he's doing.
He's saying he's crazy.

1195
01:43:59,748 --> 01:44:02,751
- Are you?
- No, I am not.

1196
01:44:02,960 --> 01:44:07,172
I'll allow you to proceed
with this witness if you're very careful.

1197
01:44:07,422 --> 01:44:10,592
Absolutely. Yes.

1198
01:44:10,801 --> 01:44:12,594
Write down that he said that.

1199
01:44:13,595 --> 01:44:16,598
All right, where were we?

1200
01:44:20,310 --> 01:44:23,397
Now, could Aaron Stampler

1201
01:44:23,647 --> 01:44:28,360
have been present during the murder
of Archbishop Rushman...

1202
01:44:28,569 --> 01:44:30,529
- ...and not remember it?
- Yes, he could.

1203
01:44:30,737 --> 01:44:33,115
Could you explain that, please?

1204
01:44:33,323 --> 01:44:37,786
Stampler's state was such that his
body could be present at a homicide,

1205
01:44:38,036 --> 01:44:40,872
and yet his mind
would be unable to recall it.

1206
01:44:41,081 --> 01:44:44,501
- How would this be possible?
- This neurological mechanism...

1207
01:44:44,710 --> 01:44:48,297
...began with the early abuse
suffered at the hands of his father.

1208
01:44:48,505 --> 01:44:53,886
In defence Aaron's psyche splintered
into two separate personalities.

1209
01:44:54,094 --> 01:44:56,722
- Your Honour.
- I didn't say it. I did not say it...

1210
01:44:56,930 --> 01:45:00,517
You've been warned twice.
You wanna pursue this?

1211
01:45:00,726 --> 01:45:05,105
And I suggest you think long and hard
before answering.

1212
01:45:06,815 --> 01:45:09,359
Your Honour, just one last question.

1213
01:45:14,281 --> 01:45:16,825
All right, Dr Arrington...

1214
01:45:17,826 --> 01:45:22,789
...in your opinion is Aaron Stampler
capable of murder?

1215
01:45:22,998 --> 01:45:26,919
No, he's far too traumatised to
express normal anger and frustration.

1216
01:45:27,169 --> 01:45:29,046
He keeps his emotions repressed,

1217
01:45:29,296 --> 01:45:31,673
which is why he created Roy,
who is capable...

1218
01:45:31,882 --> 01:45:34,259
- Objection.
- That's enough, Mr Vail.

1219
01:45:34,509 --> 01:45:38,555
The jury will disregard this witness'
last statement, as will the court.

1220
01:45:38,764 --> 01:45:42,768
- Prosecutor, do you wish to cross?
- You bet I do.

1221
01:45:44,311 --> 01:45:47,814
Since you brought it up,
against the instructions of the court,

1222
01:45:48,065 --> 01:45:52,861
is multiple personality disorder
your primary area of expertise?

1223
01:45:53,070 --> 01:45:54,863
It's not my primary field, no.

1224
01:45:55,072 --> 01:45:58,992
Is forensic psychiatry
your primary area of expertise?

1225
01:45:59,243 --> 01:46:02,079
- No, I'm a neuropsychologist.
- I see.

1226
01:46:02,287 --> 01:46:08,377
So you have no forensic experience
and you're more of an academic?

1227
01:46:10,087 --> 01:46:13,257
Then you will forgive
this rather academic question.

1228
01:46:13,882 --> 01:46:16,885
I'm driving, somebody cuts me off.

1229
01:46:17,094 --> 01:46:20,347
I feel like killing this guy,
but I don't. Now do l?

1230
01:46:20,556 --> 01:46:22,683
- I would hope not.
- That's right.

1231
01:46:22,891 --> 01:46:26,395
Things happen to us.
People wrong us.

1232
01:46:26,645 --> 01:46:31,108
But we don't all invent psychopaths
to do our dirty work for us, doctor?

1233
01:46:31,316 --> 01:46:34,236
I'm not suggesting
you have multiple personalities.

1234
01:46:34,444 --> 01:46:36,822
- I'm saying Mr Stampler does.
- Yes, I know. We heard.

1235
01:46:39,366 --> 01:46:44,788
You have also testified that you have
met this... What was his name again?

1236
01:46:44,997 --> 01:46:46,623
- Roy.
- Roy what?

1237
01:46:47,165 --> 01:46:49,209
- He didn't give a last name.
- I see.

1238
01:46:49,418 --> 01:46:53,589
Did this Roy tell you
that he had murdered the Archbishop?

1239
01:46:53,797 --> 01:46:56,258
Mr Vail was with him, I was outside,

1240
01:46:56,466 --> 01:46:59,553
but soon after I was in the room
and saw both Roy

1241
01:46:59,761 --> 01:47:02,681
and his transformation back to Aaron.

1242
01:47:02,890 --> 01:47:08,020
Did you happen to tape
this appearance of Aaron...?

1243
01:47:09,771 --> 01:47:14,151
Oh, I'm sorry.
I just cannot get used to this name.

1244
01:47:14,359 --> 01:47:17,112
- Roy.
- Did you?

1245
01:47:18,488 --> 01:47:20,949
- No, the tape was off.
- Off?

1246
01:47:23,577 --> 01:47:28,624
So you have no record whatsoever
of his appearance.

1247
01:47:28,874 --> 01:47:30,751
- No.
- No.

1248
01:47:32,544 --> 01:47:36,298
- Does Aaron know right from wrong?
- Yes, he does.

1249
01:47:36,548 --> 01:47:39,509
- If Aaron butchered the Archbishop...
- Objection.

1250
01:47:39,718 --> 01:47:43,722
...would he know
if Aaron murdered the Archbishop?

1251
01:47:43,931 --> 01:47:48,393
- Would he know he'd broken the law?
- Yes, he would. But it wasn't Aaron...

1252
01:47:48,602 --> 01:47:52,356
Oh, yes, I know, doctor. It was Roy.

1253
01:47:55,651 --> 01:47:58,737
That's all.
No further questions, Your Honour.

1254
01:47:58,946 --> 01:48:00,697
Witness may step down.

1255
01:48:00,906 --> 01:48:05,535
If you'd like to re-open your case
and call the State's psychiatrist...

1256
01:48:05,744 --> 01:48:08,580
- ...l will certainly agree to it.
- No, l...

1257
01:48:08,789 --> 01:48:12,918
I don't think that's necessary.
I think we all get the picture here.

1258
01:48:13,126 --> 01:48:16,505
Mr Vail, are you ready to proceed?

1259
01:48:19,424 --> 01:48:20,926
Would you like a recess?

1260
01:49:26,366 --> 01:49:27,784
Roy?

1261
01:49:29,286 --> 01:49:31,163
Aaron.

1262
01:49:34,041 --> 01:49:38,420
Could you tell us a little about
your relationship with the Archbishop?

1263
01:49:38,629 --> 01:49:43,216
Well, he was like a father to me.
I loved him very much.

1264
01:49:43,425 --> 01:49:45,594
Why did you love him?

1265
01:49:45,802 --> 01:49:47,512
- Why?
- Aha.

1266
01:49:48,597 --> 01:49:51,892
Well, he...he s-saved my life.

1267
01:49:52,684 --> 01:49:57,648
He was the only person who ever
treated me like I was worth anything.

1268
01:49:57,856 --> 01:50:00,234
Stop your whining, little girl. Be a man.

1269
01:50:04,404 --> 01:50:08,617
We've all seen that tape
that you were in, Aaron.

1270
01:50:08,825 --> 01:50:12,913
How did that make you feel? Did it
change your feelings about Rushman?

1271
01:50:13,121 --> 01:50:15,040
No.

1272
01:50:15,249 --> 01:50:18,085
He was a wonderful man.

1273
01:50:18,293 --> 01:50:22,881
So you didn't feel anger towards him
for forcing you to perform in that tape?

1274
01:50:23,090 --> 01:50:26,510
No, he did everýthing for me.

1275
01:50:26,718 --> 01:50:30,222
There was nothing else
I could do for him, and he needed it.

1276
01:50:30,430 --> 01:50:33,141
Do you know someone named Roy?

1277
01:50:35,644 --> 01:50:37,563
No, I don't.

1278
01:50:37,771 --> 01:50:42,776
You heard Dr Arrington's testimony
about what she and I saw at the jail.

1279
01:50:42,985 --> 01:50:46,071
There are strange things going on.
Do you remember?

1280
01:50:46,280 --> 01:50:50,367
I heard what she said,
but I don't remember any of that.

1281
01:50:50,576 --> 01:50:53,996
Did you kill Archbishop Rushman?

1282
01:50:54,955 --> 01:50:57,332
No, sir, I did not.

1283
01:51:02,879 --> 01:51:04,673
Thank you.

1284
01:51:06,842 --> 01:51:09,011
Your witness.

1285
01:51:15,601 --> 01:51:18,812
Mr Stampler,
would you like some water?

1286
01:51:22,482 --> 01:51:25,736
- N-no, ma'am.
- You sure?

1287
01:51:26,612 --> 01:51:28,989
Ye-yes, ma'am.

1288
01:51:36,747 --> 01:51:40,125
Mr Stampler, did you believe
that the Archbishop wore masks?

1289
01:51:44,004 --> 01:51:45,797
I'm sorry, what did you say?

1290
01:51:46,006 --> 01:51:51,178
Do you think he acted one way
in public and another way in private?

1291
01:51:51,386 --> 01:51:53,931
N-no, I don't think that.

1292
01:51:54,139 --> 01:51:56,975
Isn't that why you underlined
the Hawthorne passage?

1293
01:51:59,186 --> 01:52:00,979
Mr Stampler?

1294
01:52:03,273 --> 01:52:05,400
No, I did not underline that book.

1295
01:52:05,609 --> 01:52:08,487
- You didn't underline it?
- No, ma'am.

1296
01:52:08,695 --> 01:52:11,907
And you didn't carve the numbers
of that passage into his chest?

1297
01:52:12,115 --> 01:52:15,953
No, ma'am, I did not.
I told you l...

1298
01:52:16,161 --> 01:52:18,622
You loved him.

1299
01:52:18,830 --> 01:52:21,458
You loved him like a father.

1300
01:52:21,667 --> 01:52:24,628
Even though
he made you and your girlfriend

1301
01:52:24,836 --> 01:52:28,966
perform demeaning sexual acts
for his own gratification.

1302
01:52:29,174 --> 01:52:31,593
No, you don't understand. He...

1303
01:52:31,802 --> 01:52:36,598
There was no other way for him
to cast out his demons. He...

1304
01:52:36,807 --> 01:52:40,602
He needed to get off, Aaron.
That's what he was doing.

1305
01:52:40,811 --> 01:52:44,439
That's what he needed you for.
To perform like a circus animal.

1306
01:52:44,648 --> 01:52:47,150
- That was your function in his life.
- N-no.

1307
01:52:47,359 --> 01:52:51,446
Oh, Mr Stampler, I'm gonna ask
you straight because I am tired.

1308
01:52:51,655 --> 01:52:55,158
I've had enough of this sordidness,
and I wanna go home.

1309
01:52:55,367 --> 01:52:59,538
And I wanna wash my hands,
and I wanna forget all about you

1310
01:52:59,746 --> 01:53:01,540
and Archbishop Rushman.

1311
01:53:01,748 --> 01:53:05,127
Did the Archbishop force you
and your girlfriend and others

1312
01:53:05,335 --> 01:53:09,381
to perform sexual acts
while he watched? Yes or no?

1313
01:53:12,301 --> 01:53:15,053
- Yes, he did, but...
- Yes. Yes, he forced you.

1314
01:53:15,262 --> 01:53:19,308
He forced you using a threat
of expulsion from Savior House

1315
01:53:19,516 --> 01:53:24,104
and a life on the street with no heat
and no water and no food.

1316
01:53:24,313 --> 01:53:27,608
He put you in front of a camera!
He made you take off your clothes!

1317
01:53:27,816 --> 01:53:30,986
And you don't think
that's another side?

1318
01:53:31,194 --> 01:53:33,030
Another face of a man
that we all thought...

1319
01:53:33,238 --> 01:53:37,159
- No! No.
- Someone did that to me, I'd kill him.

1320
01:53:38,035 --> 01:53:41,288
I would stab him 78 times
with a butcher knife!

1321
01:53:41,496 --> 01:53:43,916
I would chop off his fingers!
I would slash his throat open!

1322
01:53:44,124 --> 01:53:49,630
I would carve numbers into his chest!
I would gouge out his eyes! I swear.

1323
01:53:51,423 --> 01:53:53,508
But that's me.

1324
01:54:01,975 --> 01:54:05,187
- No further questions.
- Where the hell are you going?

1325
01:54:05,395 --> 01:54:07,898
Look at me
when I'm talking to you, bitch!

1326
01:54:08,482 --> 01:54:10,067
Fuck you, lady! Come here!

1327
01:54:10,275 --> 01:54:11,902
Order! Bailiff! Order!

1328
01:54:14,821 --> 01:54:16,949
Let's play rough! Come on. Back off!

1329
01:54:17,950 --> 01:54:22,663
- Roy!
- Keep coming, and I'll break her neck!

1330
01:54:22,871 --> 01:54:25,832
- Come here and talk.
- Fuck you, Marty! I'm walking out!

1331
01:54:31,838 --> 01:54:34,758
No! No! Don't you... !

1332
01:54:42,558 --> 01:54:44,226
You OK?

1333
01:55:12,004 --> 01:55:15,507
Don't even think of lighting
that cigarette, Miss Venable.

1334
01:55:20,888 --> 01:55:23,307
- How's your neck?
- I'll live.

1335
01:55:23,515 --> 01:55:25,142
I could call a doctor.

1336
01:55:25,851 --> 01:55:30,647
Mr Shaughnessy just called
to inform me there will be no mistrial.

1337
01:55:30,856 --> 01:55:33,317
- As if that was his right.
- I can't believe...

1338
01:55:33,525 --> 01:55:35,611
...that scumbag has the balls to call.

1339
01:55:35,819 --> 01:55:37,404
No thanks.

1340
01:55:37,613 --> 01:55:43,076
What matters to me is what you have
to say. Your case has been damaged.

1341
01:55:43,952 --> 01:55:46,622
In fairness to the Prosecution
I would declare a mistrial,

1342
01:55:46,830 --> 01:55:51,084
regardless of what Shaughnessy
and Vail think, if that's what you want.

1343
01:55:51,293 --> 01:55:54,338
The Prosecution doesn't wanna try
this case again even if it could.

1344
01:55:54,546 --> 01:55:57,341
Which it can't. At least not by me.

1345
01:55:57,549 --> 01:56:00,385
I think I can guarantee you
there's no one

1346
01:56:00,594 --> 01:56:05,432
in the DA's office who will.
So...it's up to you.

1347
01:56:05,641 --> 01:56:08,810
I'm gonna dismiss the jury
in favour of a bench trial

1348
01:56:09,019 --> 01:56:12,981
and a blind plea of not guilty
by reason of insanity. Yes?

1349
01:56:13,190 --> 01:56:17,027
The defendant will be remanded
to Elgin for a 30-day evaluation period.

1350
01:56:17,236 --> 01:56:19,279
Let them decide
the term of his commitment.

1351
01:56:19,488 --> 01:56:22,741
- Do you have a problem with that?
- He'll be out in a month.

1352
01:56:22,950 --> 01:56:26,078
Take it up with the Legislature,
Miss Venable.

1353
01:56:28,622 --> 01:56:30,582
I'm going home.

1354
01:56:35,671 --> 01:56:39,216
- Your Honour.
- No, I won't refund your contempt fine.

1355
01:56:39,424 --> 01:56:43,512
Next time you wanna get a client off
on insanity, you plead that way,

1356
01:56:43,720 --> 01:56:45,556
or I'll have you disbarred.

1357
01:57:14,876 --> 01:57:19,172
- You OK?
- Am I OK? Do I seem OK?

1358
01:57:19,381 --> 01:57:22,968
I get attacked by this sick twist,
I've lost the case, I'm out of a job.

1359
01:57:23,176 --> 01:57:30,142
No, I'm not OK. But hey, you won,
justice was done. Who cares, right?

1360
01:57:31,518 --> 01:57:33,312
Congratulations.

1361
01:57:39,526 --> 01:57:41,153
You knew, didn't you?

1362
01:57:41,361 --> 01:57:44,239
You knew if I went after him,
he'd wig out.

1363
01:57:44,448 --> 01:57:48,035
I knew he'd come out
if he was threatened.

1364
01:57:48,243 --> 01:57:51,705
Who better to do that than me?

1365
01:57:51,914 --> 01:57:53,707
You used me.

1366
01:57:57,544 --> 01:58:01,089
Yeah, I did. I had no choice.

1367
01:58:02,341 --> 01:58:05,844
What did I use that was so terrible?

1368
01:58:06,053 --> 01:58:09,890
I knew you'd do your job. I knew
you'd stand up to Shaughnessy.

1369
01:58:10,098 --> 01:58:12,809
I knew you'd try to win the case.
What's wrong with that?

1370
01:58:13,018 --> 01:58:17,648
- I lost my fucking job!
- Good, you should've left years ago.

1371
01:58:17,856 --> 01:58:21,610
- You always say what's right for me.
- I'm arrogant.

1372
01:58:23,403 --> 01:58:24,905
I'm very...

1373
01:58:26,615 --> 01:58:29,284
...very arrogant.

1374
01:58:39,336 --> 01:58:41,546
- You wanna dance?
- No.

1375
01:58:42,881 --> 01:58:44,925
- Sure?
- Yeah.

1376
01:58:47,427 --> 01:58:50,389
All you have to do is turn around.

1377
01:58:55,519 --> 01:58:57,437
No.

1378
01:58:58,564 --> 01:58:59,898
No.

1379
01:59:09,324 --> 01:59:12,411
I have to see my client.

1380
01:59:54,953 --> 01:59:57,789
- I'd like a minute alone with him.
- You sure?

1381
02:00:10,969 --> 02:00:12,554
You OK?

1382
02:00:16,099 --> 02:00:19,144
My head hurts.

1383
02:00:19,353 --> 02:00:22,648
You don't remember
what just happened?

1384
02:00:25,234 --> 02:00:26,818
No?

1385
02:00:27,027 --> 02:00:29,988
I lo-lost time again.

1386
02:00:31,240 --> 02:00:34,534
Well, I got some good news.

1387
02:00:34,743 --> 02:00:36,662
They've agreed to stop the trial.

1388
02:00:36,870 --> 02:00:41,959
They'll be sending you to a hospital...
to get the help you need.

1389
02:00:43,585 --> 02:00:48,757
There's a very good chance
you can get out someday soon.

1390
02:00:51,468 --> 02:00:53,136
Yeah.

1391
02:00:57,432 --> 02:00:59,726
I c-can't believe it.

1392
02:00:59,935 --> 02:01:04,147
- I d-don't know what to say, Mr Vail.
- That's all right.

1393
02:01:04,356 --> 02:01:09,736
I knew the minute you came into my
cell that everýthing would be OK.

1394
02:01:09,945 --> 02:01:13,407
You s-saved my life.

1395
02:01:20,163 --> 02:01:22,291
I got to go.

1396
02:01:23,709 --> 02:01:28,922
- When will I see you again?
- That's up to the courts now.

1397
02:01:30,007 --> 02:01:34,386
I don't want you to worry.
I'm gonna stay on top of this, OK?

1398
02:01:40,893 --> 02:01:43,228
Thank you.

1399
02:01:43,437 --> 02:01:47,566
- Give me a call if you need to.
- I will.

1400
02:01:50,903 --> 02:01:52,905
- Mr Vail?
- Yeah.

1401
02:01:54,907 --> 02:01:59,369
Will you t-tell Miss Venable I'm sorry?

1402
02:02:00,621 --> 02:02:03,540
Tell her I hope her neck is OK.

1403
02:02:04,833 --> 02:02:06,585
Yeah.

1404
02:02:22,976 --> 02:02:26,563
- What did you just say?
- What?

1405
02:02:27,856 --> 02:02:31,401
You told me you don't remember.
You black out.

1406
02:02:34,404 --> 02:02:36,657
So how do you know about her neck?

1407
02:02:52,130 --> 02:02:55,384
Well, good for you, Marty.

1408
02:02:57,135 --> 02:02:58,845
I was gonna let it go.

1409
02:02:59,054 --> 02:03:02,140
You were looking so happy just now.
I was thinking...

1410
02:03:03,725 --> 02:03:06,103
To tell you the truth,
I'm glad you figured it.

1411
02:03:06,311 --> 02:03:09,690
'Cause I have been dying to tell you.

1412
02:03:09,898 --> 02:03:12,401
I just didn't know
who you'd wanna hear it from.

1413
02:03:12,609 --> 02:03:14,653
Aaron or Roy, Roy or Aaron.

1414
02:03:15,445 --> 02:03:21,743
Well, I'll let you in on a client-
attorney-privilege type of secret.

1415
02:03:21,952 --> 02:03:26,290
It don't matter who you hear it from.
It's the same story.

1416
02:03:30,419 --> 02:03:33,422
I j-j-just...

1417
02:03:33,630 --> 02:03:37,134
had to kill Linda, Mr Vail.

1418
02:03:37,342 --> 02:03:40,846
That cunt just got what she deserved.

1419
02:03:43,265 --> 02:03:47,311
But...cutting up
that son of a bitch Rushman...

1420
02:03:49,146 --> 02:03:52,065
...that was just a fucking work of art.

1421
02:04:00,449 --> 02:04:02,659
You're good. You are really good.

1422
02:04:03,702 --> 02:04:07,581
Yeah, I did get caught, though, didn't l?

1423
02:04:10,667 --> 02:04:14,212
So there never...
there never was a Roy?

1424
02:04:16,131 --> 02:04:22,721
Jesus Christ, Marty. If that's what
you think, I'm disappointed in you.

1425
02:04:24,681 --> 02:04:29,478
There never was an Aaron, counsellor.

1426
02:04:37,611 --> 02:04:40,322
Come on, I thought you had it
figured there at the end.

1427
02:04:40,530 --> 02:04:43,742
The way you put me on the stand
like that, that was brilliant.

1428
02:04:43,951 --> 02:04:47,371
The whole "act-like-a-man" thing.
I knew what you wanted.

1429
02:04:47,579 --> 02:04:50,123
It was like we were dancing, Marty!

1430
02:04:50,332 --> 02:04:52,542
- Guard.
- Don't be like that, Marty.

1431
02:04:53,961 --> 02:04:59,132
We did it, man. We fucking did it.
We're a great team, you and me.

1432
02:04:59,341 --> 02:05:01,468
You think I could've
done this without you?

1433
02:05:01,677 --> 02:05:06,848
You're feeling angry because you
started to care about old Aaron, but...

1434
02:05:08,100 --> 02:05:10,060
...love hurts, Marty. What can I say?

1435
02:05:11,186 --> 02:05:14,565
I'mjust kidding, bud!
I didn't mean to hurt your feelings!

1436
02:05:14,773 --> 02:05:17,317
What else was I supposed to do?!

1437
02:05:17,526 --> 02:05:22,406
You'll thank me down the road, 'cause
this'll toughen you up, Martin Vail!

1438
02:05:22,614 --> 02:05:26,201
You hear me? That's a promise!
