[upbeat music]

00:00:41,575 --> 00:00:45,344
[male voice]
Counting my days from the cage.
3
00:00:45,346 --> 00:00:49,715
In so many ways
it's all that I've known.
4
00:00:49,717 --> 00:00:54,319
Cell's been my home.
Chaotic environments.
5
00:00:54,321 --> 00:00:57,423
I've been going
through violence,
still screaming in silence.
6
00:00:58,793 --> 00:01:01,794
All I wanted was a shelter,
warm bed and a pot to piss in,
7
00:01:01,796 --> 00:01:04,797
and daydream
for better livin'.
8
00:01:05,699 --> 00:01:07,399
Stop!
9
00:01:08,235 --> 00:01:09,234
[music stops]
10
00:01:10,771 --> 00:01:12,704
[male voice] I hate living
in this nightmare.
11
00:01:12,706 --> 00:01:17,843
¶ I was born inside
A wind parade
Crying on the best of days ¶
12
00:01:17,845 --> 00:01:20,612
¶ Almost pushed stop on
The tape inside an Escalade ¶
13
00:01:20,614 --> 00:01:23,449
¶ In those last moments
Spilling out
into the Interstate ¶
14
00:01:23,451 --> 00:01:26,151
¶ Estimate the lost
To the universe
Don't escalate ¶
15
00:01:26,153 --> 00:01:28,821
¶ Back to the soil
Back to the flower beds ¶
16
00:01:28,823 --> 00:01:31,623
¶ Back to the Crown Royal
Then it's back
To the toil, black ¶
17
00:01:31,625 --> 00:01:34,293
¶ Spinning
while These Other motherfuckers
Was spilling raps ¶
18
00:01:34,295 --> 00:01:36,628
¶ Ready to die, ready to fly
Why I skipped the track... ¶
19
00:01:36,630 --> 00:01:38,630
Randolph, get up.
You've got court.
20
00:01:43,204 --> 00:01:45,437
¶ ...and slow down
Whatever go down ¶
21
00:01:45,439 --> 00:01:47,606
¶ I'll take it all
New romantic when he puffing ¶
22
00:01:47,608 --> 00:01:50,209
¶ The trees
And stake it all on the work ¶
23
00:01:50,211 --> 00:01:52,311
¶ And if I follow my bliss
For model chicks ¶
24
00:01:52,313 --> 00:01:53,846
¶ They steady loving
The way that I spit ¶
25
00:01:53,848 --> 00:01:56,348
¶ I'll get to live, uhh ¶
26
00:01:56,350 --> 00:01:59,885
[hip-hop music continues]
27
00:02:16,170 --> 00:02:19,171
¶ I'm alone in the city,
black Fitted cap back ¶
28
00:02:19,173 --> 00:02:21,607
¶ With a pretty young thing
When I'm sitting back ¶
29
00:02:21,609 --> 00:02:24,343
¶ Ice grill 'em on a warm day
Lifetime ¶
30
00:02:24,345 --> 00:02:27,246
¶ Catch me on the block
Blowing dice
Or I'm flowing nice ¶
31
00:02:27,248 --> 00:02:29,882
¶ When the city lights
Bright in the night time ¶
32
00:02:31,318 --> 00:02:33,919
Looked over those notes,
it's pretty open and shut.
33
00:02:35,256 --> 00:02:38,190
[man] Remember, we have
the German case management
meeting in the morning.
34
00:02:38,192 --> 00:02:40,192
-We'll be back in time.
-Good.
35
00:02:47,535 --> 00:02:48,734
Nervous flyer?
36
00:02:48,736 --> 00:02:51,937
Yes, Sir, a bit.
37
00:02:53,407 --> 00:02:57,876
Quite an honor. You need to fly
in the corporate jet
your first week on the job.
38
00:02:57,878 --> 00:03:01,380
I've been here
eight weeks, Sir.
39
00:03:01,382 --> 00:03:02,648
Excuse me?
40
00:03:02,650 --> 00:03:04,716
Been here two months.
41
00:03:04,718 --> 00:03:07,553
But thank you.
Name's Keisha...
42
00:03:07,555 --> 00:03:11,657
-James.
-[indistinct chatter]
43
00:03:12,593 --> 00:03:14,726
[male voice over speaker]
...clear to take off.
44
00:03:21,468 --> 00:03:22,935
Relax, Miss James.
45
00:03:23,837 --> 00:03:26,638
This plan is courtesy
of Cal Air. Our largest client,
46
00:03:26,640 --> 00:03:27,839
39 percent of our billables.
47
00:03:30,644 --> 00:03:31,743
Okay.
48
00:03:40,521 --> 00:03:43,755
[man] Judge, if you grant
their motion, Cal Air
will have completely destroyed
49
00:03:43,757 --> 00:03:46,725
a mom-and-pop company
that has been flying families
50
00:03:46,727 --> 00:03:49,228
over Lake Michigan
for 30 years.
51
00:03:49,230 --> 00:03:53,298
-This isn't equitable or fair.
-This isn't about equity,
Your Honor.
52
00:03:53,934 --> 00:03:57,669
-Well, I notice
you left out the word "fair."
-In this case the law states--
53
00:03:57,671 --> 00:03:59,871
I mean, you have already
decided the case.
54
00:04:01,575 --> 00:04:04,610
I'm sorry, Mr. Counselor,
but the court has no choice
55
00:04:05,679 --> 00:04:07,613
-but to follow the law.
-[gavel]
56
00:04:08,749 --> 00:04:12,551
[woman] Next case,
the State of Illinois
versus Jamal Randolph.
57
00:04:13,921 --> 00:04:17,522
[laughs] Mr. Randolph.
58
00:04:18,626 --> 00:04:21,426
This is the fifth time
I've seen you this year.
59
00:04:21,428 --> 00:04:23,328
I see you more
than I see my grandchildren.
60
00:04:23,330 --> 00:04:25,731
And that is a problem.
61
00:04:25,733 --> 00:04:28,867
This time
it's two OxyContin pills
62
00:04:28,869 --> 00:04:30,902
that you gave to your...
your fellow inmates.
63
00:04:30,904 --> 00:04:33,505
Yeah, my boy was hurting
and he had these shakes.
64
00:04:33,507 --> 00:04:36,308
Mr. Randolph,
you have three weeks remaining
65
00:04:36,310 --> 00:04:39,011
on your present sentence.
I'm gonna tack on
an additional week.
66
00:04:39,013 --> 00:04:40,579
Man, this is
some fucking bullshit.
67
00:04:40,581 --> 00:04:41,880
[judge] Mr. Randolph,
68
00:04:43,484 --> 00:04:46,518
you're on your way out.
You stay out of trouble.
69
00:04:49,290 --> 00:04:51,523
Mr. Randolph,
re... re... return here.
70
00:04:51,525 --> 00:04:53,425
Return here
back to the podium.
71
00:04:57,865 --> 00:05:00,632
You have another case in here
in this court, a civil case,
72
00:05:00,634 --> 00:05:04,403
that's due up for trial
in two weeks, correct?
73
00:05:04,405 --> 00:05:06,004
-Yeah.
-[judge] Mm-Hm.
74
00:05:06,006 --> 00:05:07,873
This case has been bouncing
around this court
75
00:05:07,875 --> 00:05:10,409
-for what, six years now?
-[woman] Your Honor,
76
00:05:11,779 --> 00:05:14,313
I'm sorry, I'm Jamal's mother.
77
00:05:15,015 --> 00:05:17,849
We've tried but we haven't
been able to find
78
00:05:17,851 --> 00:05:19,785
anyone to help us.
79
00:05:19,787 --> 00:05:22,888
Mr. Randolph,
do you wish to proceed?
80
00:05:25,959 --> 00:05:27,359
Yeah.
81
00:05:30,664 --> 00:05:33,332
Well, representing yourself
is not a good idea.
82
00:05:33,334 --> 00:05:35,467
-[door opens]
-Mr. Trainer,
83
00:05:37,571 --> 00:05:40,405
please return to the podium.
Please.
84
00:05:40,407 --> 00:05:43,008
-Uh...
-[judge] Please.
85
00:05:45,813 --> 00:05:49,681
Well, I see, Trainer, you have
an impressive record here.
86
00:05:50,551 --> 00:05:53,085
It... uh, from the looks
of it you've managed
to turn down every case
87
00:05:53,087 --> 00:05:56,788
in which any court has attempted
to appoint you to represent
an indigent client.
88
00:05:56,790 --> 00:05:58,690
-[Trainer clears throat]
-Your Honor, if I may?
89
00:05:58,692 --> 00:06:01,593
Ah, ah,
did I ask you to speak,
90
00:06:01,595 --> 00:06:05,397
Counselor?
No, you may not.
91
00:06:07,634 --> 00:06:09,868
According to the docket,
you have never handled
92
00:06:09,870 --> 00:06:11,970
a pro bono case
for this court or any court.
93
00:06:11,972 --> 00:06:15,607
I make donations. I... I write
a lot of checks for charities.
94
00:06:15,609 --> 00:06:18,076
Accepting appointments
to represent a client
95
00:06:18,078 --> 00:06:19,845
who cannot afford a lawyer
96
00:06:19,847 --> 00:06:22,147
is responsibility
that you owe to the bar.
97
00:06:22,149 --> 00:06:25,684
And I have a responsibility
to my corporate clients
and my firm.
98
00:06:25,686 --> 00:06:29,454
Mr. Randolph,
meet your new lawyer,
Michael Trainer.
99
00:06:31,158 --> 00:06:34,459
-Oh, hell, no.
-Your Honor, my practice
100
00:06:34,461 --> 00:06:36,094
is confined
to corporate litigation, not--
101
00:06:36,096 --> 00:06:37,963
Unconfine it.
102
00:06:39,533 --> 00:06:42,701
-[gavel]
-Next case.
103
00:06:42,703 --> 00:06:44,770
[woman] Kanan versus Melissa.
104
00:06:44,772 --> 00:06:47,439
[Jamal]
What the fuck just happened?
105
00:06:47,441 --> 00:06:48,707
[suspenseful music]
106
00:06:51,545 --> 00:06:55,147
[counselor] Jesus, we got
three trials next month.
How are we gonna try this case?
107
00:06:55,149 --> 00:06:58,016
[Michael] We're not.
You're gonna find a conflict.
108
00:06:58,018 --> 00:07:00,986
[Keisha]
Can't we just assign someone
from the firm to the case?
109
00:07:00,988 --> 00:07:03,655
[Michael] They have legal aid
for people like him.
110
00:07:03,657 --> 00:07:04,956
People like him?
111
00:07:06,693 --> 00:07:09,628
Don't do that.
You know what I mean.
112
00:07:16,670 --> 00:07:18,737
[man] Okay. Now,
let's not gonna rush this
113
00:07:18,739 --> 00:07:21,206
-because I've seen this go
terribly wrong.
-[laughs]
114
00:07:21,208 --> 00:07:25,877
No, no, my daughter's
idiot ex-husband Barry,
cursed him from the start.
115
00:07:25,879 --> 00:07:28,079
At the wedding I'm making
the toast around the table,
116
00:07:28,081 --> 00:07:30,582
Barry comes in hard,
six glasses shatter,
117
00:07:30,584 --> 00:07:33,118
-champagne goes everywhere.
-Oh, no.
118
00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:35,887
So before we raise a glass,
I want to say,
119
00:07:35,889 --> 00:07:40,091
Bellcore will be
the first private foster company
to go public ever.
120
00:07:40,093 --> 00:07:41,893
Vince, what are
the stock projections?
121
00:07:41,895 --> 00:07:43,929
Three-hundred-percent increase
in year one,
122
00:07:43,931 --> 00:07:46,598
-plus or minus twenty percent.
-Okay, I'll take that
123
00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:50,001
plus or minus.
Ms. Dupree, where are we at
with the collateral litigation?
124
00:07:50,003 --> 00:07:53,805
Ten lawsuits in total.
Six should be dismissed
by the end of the month.
125
00:07:53,807 --> 00:07:56,208
Three we can settle
for under fifty.
126
00:07:56,210 --> 00:07:59,177
Six and three. That's nine.
127
00:07:59,179 --> 00:08:03,248
Yes, there's a kid in Chicago.
Just got assigned a lawyer,
corporate guy.
128
00:08:03,250 --> 00:08:05,984
-Shouldn't be a problem.
-Oh, I see. Okay, come here,
129
00:08:07,187 --> 00:08:12,190
let's make sure
that it's not a problem.
130
00:08:12,192 --> 00:08:15,727
-Yes.
-Okay. Good enough.
Now come in gently...
131
00:08:15,729 --> 00:08:19,598
-[indistinct chatter]
-[suspenseful music continues]
132
00:08:22,836 --> 00:08:24,169
[music stops]
133
00:08:27,808 --> 00:08:29,574
My key still works.
134
00:08:29,576 --> 00:08:31,576
It might be better
if you'd knock.
135
00:08:38,085 --> 00:08:39,551
Of course.
136
00:08:39,552 --> 00:08:41,018
-Where's Benny?
-He's back in his bunk.
137
00:08:41,021 --> 00:08:42,921
-Hey, Benny.
-[Benny] Yeah?
138
00:08:42,923 --> 00:08:44,956
-Your dad's here.
-Okay.
139
00:08:47,728 --> 00:08:50,996
You don't... don't...
you don't have to do that.
140
00:08:54,968 --> 00:08:57,903
[clears throat] I, uh...
141
00:08:59,773 --> 00:09:01,806
I can't take Benny
for the whole weekend.
142
00:09:03,710 --> 00:09:06,611
-What is it this time?
-[Michael]
I have to go to Chicago.
143
00:09:06,613 --> 00:09:09,147
-Are you two arguing again?
-[Michael] No.
144
00:09:09,149 --> 00:09:11,716
-How you doing, buddy?
-I'm fine.
145
00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:15,587
Hey, uh,
show your dad your picture.
146
00:09:16,890 --> 00:09:21,092
Oh... that's terrific.
147
00:09:21,094 --> 00:09:23,695
It's you.
He... he drew a picture of you.
148
00:09:23,697 --> 00:09:27,299
I... I tried to get out of it,
but the judge forced me to take
149
00:09:27,301 --> 00:09:31,903
-a pro bono case.
-What's pro bono?
150
00:09:31,905 --> 00:09:35,774
Pro bono. Well, that's where
the judge forces you to do
something for free.
151
00:09:35,776 --> 00:09:38,109
-How come?
-You got me.
152
00:09:38,111 --> 00:09:40,679
When somebody
can't afford a lawyer,
153
00:09:40,681 --> 00:09:42,814
the judge tries to be helpful
and appoints an attorney.
154
00:09:42,816 --> 00:09:44,082
What happened to him?
155
00:09:45,018 --> 00:09:48,587
He got hurt and he wants money
from the people
156
00:09:48,589 --> 00:09:50,255
he thinks are responsible.
157
00:09:50,257 --> 00:09:52,724
-Will they give it to him?
-Maybe a little.
158
00:09:52,726 --> 00:09:54,826
Did they only
hurt him a little?
159
00:09:54,828 --> 00:09:57,295
[Michael] The company doesn't
think that they hurt him at all.
160
00:10:00,801 --> 00:10:01,967
What do you think?
161
00:10:01,968 --> 00:10:03,134
I think he'll be lucky
to get a dime. Come on.
162
00:10:03,136 --> 00:10:06,137
Hey. [laughs]
163
00:10:06,139 --> 00:10:09,641
-Come on.
-Bye, Mom.
164
00:10:09,643 --> 00:10:11,209
Bye, sweetheart. Have fun.
165
00:10:11,211 --> 00:10:13,678
-I love you.
-[Benny] Love you, too.
166
00:10:19,620 --> 00:10:23,154
We'll settle this by noon
and be out of here.
167
00:10:23,156 --> 00:10:26,358
All right.
How do you think
this kid's gonna present?
168
00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:28,159
Like a thug.
169
00:10:28,161 --> 00:10:29,928
[counselor]
Yeah, that's not gonna help.
170
00:10:31,298 --> 00:10:35,033
Mr. Trainer.
I'm so glad to finally meet you.
171
00:10:35,035 --> 00:10:38,970
I'm... I'm Shaina.
Excuse me, I'm Shaina Randolph,
Jamal's mother.
172
00:10:38,972 --> 00:10:43,008
My husband and I googled you
and your reputation
is impeccable.
173
00:10:43,010 --> 00:10:46,277
Well, Miss Randolph,
you can't believe
everything you read on Google.
174
00:10:46,279 --> 00:10:47,879
A liberal invented it.
175
00:10:50,250 --> 00:10:52,917
[indistinct chatter]
176
00:10:59,826 --> 00:11:03,662
Excuse me, could you remove
his cuffs please?
177
00:11:03,664 --> 00:11:05,230
Protocol.
178
00:11:10,070 --> 00:11:12,904
-[Michael] James Randolph?
-Jamal.
179
00:11:14,207 --> 00:11:16,207
Jamal Randolph. Okay.
180
00:11:17,711 --> 00:11:21,346
Today we are going
to have a pre-trial.
You know what that is?
181
00:11:21,348 --> 00:11:24,416
That's where we try
to settle this case
182
00:11:24,418 --> 00:11:26,418
and get some money
in your pocket.
183
00:11:27,788 --> 00:11:29,387
You'd like that,
wouldn't you?
184
00:11:29,389 --> 00:11:31,856
Just some bullshit.
185
00:11:31,858 --> 00:11:34,159
The defendant,
Bellcore Family Services
186
00:11:34,161 --> 00:11:36,227
has offered you 40,000 dollars.
187
00:11:36,229 --> 00:11:39,698
I'd like to get that up
to say 70, 75.
188
00:11:40,867 --> 00:11:43,401
-Does that sound good?
-Nope.
189
00:11:43,403 --> 00:11:45,904
All right. Maybe 80.
190
00:11:45,906 --> 00:11:49,274
It ain't about the money,
three-piece.
191
00:11:50,877 --> 00:11:52,410
It's always about the money.
192
00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:55,046
And three-piece suits
went out in the '80s.
193
00:11:55,048 --> 00:11:57,749
-Are you deaf, old man?
-Maybe 90.
194
00:11:57,751 --> 00:12:00,418
Why the fuck do I have
to have you as my lawyer?
195
00:12:03,423 --> 00:12:05,490
You're a real charmer,
you know that?
196
00:12:09,730 --> 00:12:12,097
Judge Taylor
will see you both in chambers.
197
00:12:14,101 --> 00:12:15,433
You work on it.
198
00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:23,108
You know you should count
yourself lucky
199
00:12:23,110 --> 00:12:25,043
to be represented
by Mr. Trainer.
200
00:12:25,045 --> 00:12:27,979
-Oh, yeah?
-Mm-Hm.
201
00:12:27,981 --> 00:12:30,982
Now, how much does he pay
you to kiss that ass?
202
00:12:31,918 --> 00:12:34,185
[suspenseful music]
203
00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:42,327
-[Michael] Michael Trainer.
-[man] Samuel Collins.
204
00:12:42,329 --> 00:12:46,397
Judge, we have told
the plaintiff we'll pay
40,000 if he'll take it.
205
00:12:46,399 --> 00:12:50,034
My client's digging
his heels in
but I'm still working on it.
206
00:12:50,036 --> 00:12:51,336
So what's your demand?
207
00:12:52,272 --> 00:12:54,906
Offer a hundred.
Let's see what we can do.
208
00:12:55,776 --> 00:12:57,475
I may be able to do 75.
209
00:13:00,180 --> 00:13:04,215
Mr. Collins, do you mind
if I have a moment
with Mr. Trainer, please?
210
00:13:07,254 --> 00:13:08,386
Thank you.
211
00:13:13,093 --> 00:13:15,960
Mr. Trainer, well,
the last demand by your client,
212
00:13:15,962 --> 00:13:19,964
before you were appointed,
uh, was, uh, 20 million dollars.
213
00:13:19,966 --> 00:13:23,268
Now hundred thousand dollars,
that seems a little
uh... a little shy
214
00:13:23,270 --> 00:13:25,136
-in comparison,
wouldn't you say so?
-Yeah,
215
00:13:25,138 --> 00:13:26,504
-20 million dollars?
-Uh-huh.
216
00:13:26,506 --> 00:13:28,807
It's totally unrealistic.
217
00:13:28,809 --> 00:13:32,277
Did the allegations
that when, uh,
218
00:13:32,279 --> 00:13:35,246
Jamal Randolph
was a ten-year-old child,
219
00:13:35,248 --> 00:13:39,284
Bellcore negligently ignored
his repeated complaints
220
00:13:39,286 --> 00:13:41,553
when a 16-year-old,
who was also in place,
221
00:13:41,555 --> 00:13:45,256
brutally raped and tortured him
for a three-year period.
222
00:13:45,258 --> 00:13:47,892
-Yes, I've read the case.
-Ah.
223
00:13:48,829 --> 00:13:51,262
They're allegations,
as you say.
224
00:13:51,264 --> 00:13:53,932
Well, Bellcore, that's
a private corporation that buys
225
00:13:53,934 --> 00:13:56,501
contracts from the states
for foster care, is that right?
226
00:13:56,503 --> 00:13:59,437
It's a business, a big business.
There's nothing illegal
about that.
227
00:14:00,273 --> 00:14:03,341
-Is Bellcore
your... your client?
-Excuse me?
228
00:14:03,343 --> 00:14:07,011
Well, you seem to know more
about them than you know
about, uh, Jamal.
229
00:14:07,013 --> 00:14:10,849
Your Honor,
this is a respected corporation
230
00:14:10,851 --> 00:14:14,352
versus a kid
that looks like a thug.
231
00:14:14,354 --> 00:14:15,420
Thug.
232
00:14:18,425 --> 00:14:21,292
What does a thug
look like to you?
233
00:14:21,294 --> 00:14:24,329
It doesn't matter what I think,
it's what the jury sees.
234
00:14:24,331 --> 00:14:26,931
It's the whole package,
the attitude, the hair.
235
00:14:26,933 --> 00:14:28,199
Hair?
236
00:14:30,437 --> 00:14:32,971
Why are you selling out
your client?
237
00:14:32,973 --> 00:14:35,106
I sell out nobody.
Who do you think you are?
238
00:14:35,108 --> 00:14:37,609
Sit down.
I'm gonna have you disbarred.
239
00:14:37,611 --> 00:14:41,045
Fine.
I could retire tomorrow.
240
00:14:41,047 --> 00:14:44,382
Go. Then maybe you can get that
money that you did protecting
241
00:14:44,384 --> 00:14:47,518
those corporations then you can
retire to your private golf club
242
00:14:47,520 --> 00:14:51,356
and then you can stand over
your putter trying to get
the perfect putt
243
00:14:51,358 --> 00:14:53,925
knowing goddamn well
that you haven't done
anything for anybody
244
00:14:53,927 --> 00:14:55,193
but yourself.
245
00:14:55,195 --> 00:14:57,462
[suspenseful music]
246
00:14:57,464 --> 00:14:59,464
Get out of my chambers.
247
00:14:59,466 --> 00:15:02,033
I'm sure you have someplace else
to go, Mr. Trainer.
248
00:15:23,323 --> 00:15:24,989
What are you looking at?
249
00:15:28,328 --> 00:15:29,627
Remain seated.
250
00:15:32,499 --> 00:15:34,198
[clears throat]
251
00:15:36,670 --> 00:15:40,371
All right. Have you gentlemen
reached a settlement?
252
00:15:44,344 --> 00:15:46,177
No settlement.
253
00:15:46,179 --> 00:15:47,278
[judge] Okay.
254
00:15:49,149 --> 00:15:53,351
Trial starts Monday morning
at 9:00 am.
Start picking the jury.
255
00:15:53,353 --> 00:15:57,055
Monday? I can't. That
doesn't give me time to prepare.
256
00:15:57,057 --> 00:16:00,024
That's what the last
two weeks were about.
Monday, Mr. Trainer.
257
00:16:00,026 --> 00:16:03,294
Your Honor,
I need to clean my client up.
I need to get him a haircut.
258
00:16:03,296 --> 00:16:05,563
I handle cases,
I'm not a barber.
259
00:16:05,565 --> 00:16:09,267
I can't put my client in front
of a jury looking like this.
260
00:16:10,270 --> 00:16:12,070
Side room in there if you like.
261
00:16:17,210 --> 00:16:18,443
[woman] All rise.
262
00:16:22,449 --> 00:16:25,216
Don't even be thinking
about touching my hair,
three-piece.
263
00:16:27,454 --> 00:16:29,087
Let me tell you
something, kid.
264
00:16:30,557 --> 00:16:33,291
You want me to try this case,
I guess I have to.
265
00:16:33,293 --> 00:16:35,760
But there's one thing that
I don't do and that is lose.
266
00:16:35,762 --> 00:16:37,428
-I'm not your kid.
-Clearly!
267
00:16:37,430 --> 00:16:38,763
Back up, three-piece!
268
00:16:38,765 --> 00:16:41,032
[suspenseful music]
269
00:16:51,578 --> 00:16:54,212
Keisha, figure this out.
270
00:16:54,214 --> 00:16:57,648
[indistinct chatter]
271
00:17:04,290 --> 00:17:06,290
You ain't touching my hair,
girl.
272
00:17:08,094 --> 00:17:10,661
Name's Keisha, not Girl.
273
00:17:12,432 --> 00:17:14,198
Don't be like them.
274
00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:17,201
To win,
you got to play the game,
275
00:17:17,203 --> 00:17:19,103
especially their game.
276
00:17:21,741 --> 00:17:24,308
Come on now, you don't want
to scare these white folk,
do you?
277
00:17:28,181 --> 00:17:30,081
Start the car,
get the heat going.
278
00:17:30,717 --> 00:17:34,452
See if you can find
some hotel rooms in this city.
279
00:17:44,297 --> 00:17:47,565
[hip-hop music playing]
280
00:17:52,372 --> 00:17:54,439
How come you're playing
his game?
281
00:17:55,341 --> 00:17:57,508
-I'm not.
-[Jamal] Please.
282
00:17:57,510 --> 00:17:59,844
You're following the man around,
you're doing his dirty.
283
00:17:59,846 --> 00:18:02,780
You think this game
only belongs to him?
284
00:18:02,782 --> 00:18:04,248
Well, it don't.
285
00:18:05,452 --> 00:18:07,585
Belongs to me just as much.
286
00:18:07,587 --> 00:18:11,522
Besides, I'm playing what I need
to get to where I need to get.
287
00:18:12,692 --> 00:18:15,860
All right, girl...
I mean, Keisha.
288
00:18:18,298 --> 00:18:21,365
[jazz music playing]
289
00:18:27,774 --> 00:18:30,441
[indistinct shouts]
290
00:18:33,513 --> 00:18:40,518
[eerie music]
291
00:18:42,188 --> 00:18:43,588
[kid shouting]
292
00:18:44,624 --> 00:18:48,259
All right. All right.
293
00:18:48,261 --> 00:18:50,361
[jazz music playing]
294
00:18:55,902 --> 00:18:58,169
For your opening statement.
295
00:18:58,171 --> 00:19:02,173
Thank you.
Yeah, take these depositions
296
00:19:02,175 --> 00:19:04,775
and give me an outline
of my cross exams
by tomorrow morning.
297
00:19:08,515 --> 00:19:11,716
We got nothing, you know?
This is a joke.
298
00:19:11,718 --> 00:19:15,219
No, we've got a young man
with no money
299
00:19:15,221 --> 00:19:17,622
who won't accept
an $80,000 settlement.
300
00:19:18,658 --> 00:19:19,924
That's something.
301
00:19:30,737 --> 00:19:32,370
What happened
at chambers today?
302
00:19:34,874 --> 00:19:36,207
Nothing.
303
00:19:44,184 --> 00:19:48,286
-[piano playing]
-[indistinct chatter]
304
00:19:57,263 --> 00:19:59,263
Mind if I join you,
Mr. Trainer?
305
00:19:59,933 --> 00:20:02,200
Do I know you?
306
00:20:02,202 --> 00:20:05,469
Pamela Dupree, vice president
of Bellcore Family Services.
307
00:20:05,471 --> 00:20:07,505
We didn't get a chance
to meet in court.
308
00:20:10,210 --> 00:20:11,309
Uh...
309
00:20:12,645 --> 00:20:14,445
You know we looked you up,
Michael.
310
00:20:14,447 --> 00:20:16,280
You're normally on our side
of the fence.
311
00:20:17,383 --> 00:20:18,649
Doing your homework.
312
00:20:20,220 --> 00:20:22,987
I also read that you're a bit
of a wine snob.
313
00:20:24,357 --> 00:20:25,656
Côtes du Rhône.
314
00:20:26,559 --> 00:20:28,626
It's your favorite, right?
315
00:20:28,628 --> 00:20:30,962
"Côtes", the "s" is silent.
316
00:20:35,435 --> 00:20:39,604
Must be frustrating
being stuck in Chicago
away from your family.
317
00:20:39,606 --> 00:20:42,473
Well, I don't have much
of a say in the matter.
318
00:20:44,244 --> 00:20:46,744
Sometimes I find
a glass or two of wine
319
00:20:46,746 --> 00:20:48,779
is more productive
than hours in a courtroom.
320
00:20:48,781 --> 00:20:49,914
Good point.
321
00:20:53,620 --> 00:20:54,819
Thank you.
322
00:20:56,022 --> 00:20:58,489
You know, we're not
so different, you and I.
323
00:20:59,926 --> 00:21:01,659
I worked my way up
through the company,
324
00:21:01,661 --> 00:21:04,996
started as a caseworker,
then manager,
325
00:21:04,998 --> 00:21:07,598
now I'm vice president of claims
and a major shareholder.
326
00:21:09,669 --> 00:21:12,270
Because of who you are
and the type of clients
you have,
327
00:21:12,272 --> 00:21:14,805
I think we can get this up
to a hundred thousand.
328
00:21:17,310 --> 00:21:19,443
The kid won't settle.
329
00:21:19,445 --> 00:21:22,546
Bellcore
took over where the government
failed, Mr. Trainer.
330
00:21:22,548 --> 00:21:24,749
The State had over 20,000 kids
in Child Services.
331
00:21:24,751 --> 00:21:26,951
Now we do it all.
332
00:21:26,953 --> 00:21:29,854
Pretty soon Bellcore
Family Services will be
in all 50 states.
333
00:21:30,690 --> 00:21:33,024
-Private companies do it better.
-Yeah,
334
00:21:33,026 --> 00:21:35,426
private companies
do some things better.
335
00:21:35,428 --> 00:21:38,496
They make a good fork,
a good knife,
a nice glass of red wine.
336
00:21:38,498 --> 00:21:41,065
The trouble is
a child is not a product.
337
00:21:41,067 --> 00:21:43,701
[scoffs] You joining
the Green Party?
338
00:21:43,703 --> 00:21:46,804
[scoffs]
I'm sure you'd know if I was.
339
00:21:46,806 --> 00:21:49,674
Jury's not gonna believe
a black drug dealer.
340
00:21:49,676 --> 00:21:51,809
A couple pills,
I'll keep it out.
341
00:21:51,811 --> 00:21:53,878
Won't keep out
the color of his skin.
342
00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:56,514
[suspenseful music]
343
00:21:56,516 --> 00:21:59,417
-The kid is a mess.
-Kid was a mess before
Bellcore got a hold of him.
344
00:21:59,419 --> 00:22:02,053
The kid was four years old
before Bellcore
got a hold of him.
345
00:22:02,055 --> 00:22:04,689
-Where were the parents?
-Maybe Bellcore never told
346
00:22:04,691 --> 00:22:07,858
the Randolphs about Joey Poule's
violent history.
347
00:22:09,495 --> 00:22:12,563
I'm authorized to go
to 150,000, that's it.
348
00:22:12,565 --> 00:22:15,533
Wow.
You just went to $150,000
349
00:22:15,535 --> 00:22:17,401
and I haven't had a sip
of that red wine.
350
00:22:21,107 --> 00:22:24,008
This is a nuisance case,
Mr. Trainer,
351
00:22:24,010 --> 00:22:28,346
just like the dozen or so
you and I have handled
over the years.
352
00:22:28,348 --> 00:22:31,515
Take the offer to your client,
353
00:22:31,517 --> 00:22:36,020
then you can go back home
to your son, Benjamin,
is that it?
354
00:22:36,022 --> 00:22:38,689
[suspenseful music continues]
355
00:22:46,666 --> 00:22:50,534
[judge] We've completed
the jury selection.
Are you ready to proceed?
356
00:22:50,536 --> 00:22:51,736
Your Honor, may I have a minute?
357
00:22:51,738 --> 00:22:52,937
I'll let you have five.
358
00:22:52,939 --> 00:22:54,972
Then I'm calling the jury.
359
00:22:54,974 --> 00:22:56,107
[Michael] Thank you.
360
00:22:56,109 --> 00:23:01,445
-Bellcore upped the offer
to 150,000.
-I already said no.
361
00:23:06,386 --> 00:23:09,453
[indistinct chatter]
362
00:23:12,392 --> 00:23:15,860
What? What did you see?
363
00:23:15,862 --> 00:23:17,128
That's her.
364
00:23:23,770 --> 00:23:25,503
[suspenseful music]
365
00:23:28,141 --> 00:23:30,574
[blinker beeping]
366
00:23:34,947 --> 00:23:38,449
-[kid] Ms. Dupree!
-[Dupree] That's enough!
367
00:23:38,451 --> 00:23:40,518
You get inside.
368
00:23:50,129 --> 00:23:53,130
[Michael] Good morning.
Bellcore offered $150,000.
369
00:23:53,132 --> 00:23:55,666
I have a fiduciary
responsibility to tell you that
370
00:23:55,668 --> 00:23:58,836
-that's a lot of money.
-Did they...
371
00:23:58,838 --> 00:24:02,706
ever put a criminal
in another home
like they did with us?
372
00:24:02,708 --> 00:24:04,809
There have been
other allegations.
373
00:24:04,811 --> 00:24:07,044
-I need to talk to you outside.
-Sure.
374
00:24:08,648 --> 00:24:10,581
[indistinct chatter]
375
00:24:14,887 --> 00:24:17,822
What are you seeing there,
Mr. Trainer?
376
00:24:17,824 --> 00:24:23,093
Do you see a young man who has
lost three years of his life?
377
00:24:23,095 --> 00:24:25,062
Do you see his shame?
378
00:24:25,064 --> 00:24:27,631
Or is all you can see
is another opportunity
379
00:24:27,633 --> 00:24:30,100
to be done with this case?
380
00:24:30,102 --> 00:24:31,936
Miss Randolph,
with all due respect--
381
00:24:31,938 --> 00:24:33,704
You're a father, aren't you?
382
00:24:34,974 --> 00:24:37,908
I'm telling you now,
we are not gonna settle.
383
00:24:37,910 --> 00:24:39,710
[dramatic music]
384
00:24:39,712 --> 00:24:41,879
Shine a light on what they did,
385
00:24:41,881 --> 00:24:44,748
fight for that child
as if he were your own.
386
00:24:48,087 --> 00:24:54,625
Jamal was eight.
It's pretty difficult
those first few months.
387
00:24:55,761 --> 00:24:57,795
Never heard so many curse words.
388
00:24:59,065 --> 00:25:00,865
[dramatic music continues]
389
00:25:03,903 --> 00:25:07,538
Bill, they are here.
390
00:25:07,540 --> 00:25:08,906
I thought
they were coming tomorrow.
391
00:25:08,908 --> 00:25:11,008
It doesn't look that way.
392
00:25:11,010 --> 00:25:12,042
Just put that stuff.
393
00:25:14,547 --> 00:25:16,881
Mr. and Mrs. Randolph.
I'm Ms. Dupree.
394
00:25:16,883 --> 00:25:18,649
We spoke on the phone.
How are you?
395
00:25:18,651 --> 00:25:20,050
-Hi.
-Hi.
396
00:25:24,156 --> 00:25:27,157
-Hello there, James.
-It's Jamal.
397
00:25:28,594 --> 00:25:29,727
Jamal then.
398
00:25:35,301 --> 00:25:37,868
Did Jamal ever talk
about his past?
399
00:25:40,139 --> 00:25:41,672
It was off limits.
400
00:25:43,175 --> 00:25:48,078
Pamela Dupree placed Joey Poule
in your home, is that correct?
401
00:25:48,915 --> 00:25:51,582
-Yes.
-Did she ever talk to you
402
00:25:51,584 --> 00:25:54,318
about Joey's past,
uh, any violent tendency--
403
00:25:54,320 --> 00:25:58,088
Objection, Your Honor,
we have never established
that either Bellcore
404
00:25:58,090 --> 00:26:00,624
or Ms. Dupree would have had
access to that information.
405
00:26:00,626 --> 00:26:01,725
Sustained.
406
00:26:05,064 --> 00:26:08,132
How long after Joey
moved into your home
407
00:26:08,134 --> 00:26:11,669
did you begin
to see a difference
in Jamal's behavior?
408
00:26:13,072 --> 00:26:15,806
I should have seen it
right away, but I didn't.
409
00:26:16,976 --> 00:26:18,676
[dramatic music]
410
00:26:19,812 --> 00:26:23,614
-Easy, girl, easy.
-[horse neighing]
411
00:26:23,616 --> 00:26:24,682
[boy] What you doing?
412
00:26:29,121 --> 00:26:32,122
I wonder what Sasha would look
like with the pitchfork
sticking out of her.
413
00:26:37,763 --> 00:26:40,064
I know this
must be difficult but...
414
00:26:40,066 --> 00:26:43,968
can you explain to the jury
the changes that you saw
415
00:26:43,970 --> 00:26:45,269
specifically?
416
00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:51,909
He became angry, distant,
417
00:26:54,814 --> 00:26:57,281
sometimes
he didn't leave his room.
418
00:26:59,919 --> 00:27:02,987
And this was
because of Joey Poule?
419
00:27:02,989 --> 00:27:05,255
Objection, Your Honor,
requires speculation.
420
00:27:05,257 --> 00:27:07,858
-Sustained.
-No further questions.
421
00:27:13,399 --> 00:27:16,033
Thank you for being here,
Mrs. Randolph.
422
00:27:16,035 --> 00:27:18,135
I understand
that it's very difficult.
423
00:27:18,137 --> 00:27:20,037
We'll try to make it
as easy as possible.
424
00:27:21,040 --> 00:27:24,108
How much were you paid
to be a foster mother,
425
00:27:24,110 --> 00:27:26,744
-Mrs. Randolph?
-I don't know.
426
00:27:26,746 --> 00:27:30,648
We have receipts,
$450 per month?
427
00:27:31,951 --> 00:27:35,019
I... I guess.
I didn't count it.
428
00:27:35,021 --> 00:27:39,089
And you took in
over 20 children over the years,
is that correct?
429
00:27:39,091 --> 00:27:42,059
-Yes, but--
-Four-fifty per kid,
430
00:27:42,061 --> 00:27:46,830
that comes to over $145,000
you made. Is that right?
431
00:27:46,832 --> 00:27:50,701
We spent it
on the children-clothing, food.
432
00:27:50,703 --> 00:27:53,170
You own a farm, Mrs. Randolph,
you grow food.
433
00:27:53,172 --> 00:27:57,708
-We do.
-In fact, I see
that you recorded a surplus
434
00:27:57,710 --> 00:27:59,209
for going on 10 years now.
435
00:27:59,211 --> 00:28:01,178
Bill has a green thumb.
436
00:28:01,180 --> 00:28:03,681
It appears so.
A 10-year surplus, you made
437
00:28:03,683 --> 00:28:05,783
hundreds of thousands
of dollars.
438
00:28:05,785 --> 00:28:08,385
Tell me something,
is this a picture
439
00:28:08,387 --> 00:28:10,721
of a new truck that you
and your family have bought?
440
00:28:10,723 --> 00:28:12,990
Exhibit 25, counselor.
441
00:28:12,992 --> 00:28:14,992
We bought a new truck, yes.
442
00:28:14,994 --> 00:28:20,431
And this one, is this a picture
of your new tractor, 26?
443
00:28:20,433 --> 00:28:22,733
Because the old one broke down.
444
00:28:22,735 --> 00:28:26,036
Of course. Of course.
But this new one
445
00:28:26,038 --> 00:28:29,106
is a lot bigger
than the old tractor, isn't it?
446
00:28:29,108 --> 00:28:33,110
-Covers a lot more ground,
plows a lot more land.
-Yes.
447
00:28:33,112 --> 00:28:36,080
Meaning bigger profits
for you and Mr. Randolph.
448
00:28:36,082 --> 00:28:40,284
-When the crops are good.
-I'm sure you'll do fine
with Mr. Randolph's green thumb.
449
00:28:40,286 --> 00:28:42,986
-Objection, Your Honor.
-Sustained.
450
00:28:42,988 --> 00:28:46,256
-Stick to a question, Counselor.
-[Collins] Fair enough,
Your Honor.
451
00:28:48,027 --> 00:28:51,995
Question, Mrs. Randolph.
Am I correct here in reading
452
00:28:51,997 --> 00:28:55,232
that you have already applied
to Bellcore
453
00:28:55,234 --> 00:28:59,336
-to host, yet,
another foster child?
-Yes, that is true.
454
00:28:59,338 --> 00:29:04,742
In spite of the alleged
horrifying experiences
with Joey Poule?
455
00:29:04,744 --> 00:29:07,811
Children need help,
Mr. Collins.
456
00:29:07,813 --> 00:29:11,949
[Collins] Are you helping
the children, Mrs. Randolph?
457
00:29:11,951 --> 00:29:14,752
-Or, are you helping yourself?
-Your Honor.
458
00:29:14,754 --> 00:29:16,353
Don't answer that question,
Mrs. Randolph.
459
00:29:16,355 --> 00:29:18,455
Counselor,
you're pushing your luck.
460
00:29:18,457 --> 00:29:20,791
I have no further questions,
Your Honor.
461
00:29:22,228 --> 00:29:26,096
[indistinct chatter]
462
00:29:28,167 --> 00:29:34,805
Jamal. Jamal. Jamal.
463
00:29:34,807 --> 00:29:37,007
Fuck him
and what he said about my mom.
464
00:29:37,009 --> 00:29:38,942
That's his job, he's trying
to get under your skin.
465
00:29:38,944 --> 00:29:41,211
Fuck his job, three-piece.
466
00:29:41,213 --> 00:29:44,348
Mr. Trainer,
call your next witness.
467
00:29:44,350 --> 00:29:47,384
All right. It's time
for you to get up there
and tell your story.
468
00:29:47,386 --> 00:29:49,052
[suspenseful music]
469
00:29:50,089 --> 00:29:51,121
What is it?
470
00:29:52,324 --> 00:29:54,525
-I can't.
-You can't? Okay.
471
00:29:54,527 --> 00:29:56,994
-Then I'll go over
and accept their offer.
-No.
472
00:30:00,432 --> 00:30:02,432
Those are your options.
473
00:30:02,434 --> 00:30:05,435
Either you accept their offer
or you tell your story.
474
00:30:06,338 --> 00:30:09,006
Plaintiff would like to call
James Randolph to the stand.
475
00:30:09,942 --> 00:30:11,842
State your name
for the record.
476
00:30:11,844 --> 00:30:14,411
[suspenseful music continues]
477
00:30:18,350 --> 00:30:21,185
Please state your name
for the record.
478
00:30:21,187 --> 00:30:22,886
Say your name.
479
00:30:24,390 --> 00:30:26,890
Um... [clears throat]
480
00:30:33,532 --> 00:30:40,270
James Randolph,
but I... I go by Jamal.
481
00:30:40,272 --> 00:30:45,242
Good. Jamal,
one of your first foster homes
482
00:30:45,244 --> 00:30:47,444
was with Stephanie Myers.
483
00:30:48,981 --> 00:30:50,314
Tell us what happened.
484
00:30:50,316 --> 00:30:53,016
[suspenseful music continues]
485
00:30:59,158 --> 00:31:00,524
I, um...
486
00:31:11,871 --> 00:31:13,637
Where the fuck
you been, boy?
487
00:31:16,141 --> 00:31:19,509
-What you got to say, boy?
-Nothing.
488
00:31:20,946 --> 00:31:22,346
[Stephanie] Get over here.
489
00:31:27,353 --> 00:31:31,555
So you play with yourself
all the time.
490
00:31:31,557 --> 00:31:32,990
What'd I tell you
about playing with yourself?
491
00:31:32,992 --> 00:31:34,358
You want
to grow up to be a faggot?
492
00:31:34,360 --> 00:31:36,159
No.
493
00:31:37,997 --> 00:31:40,631
Little faggot playing
with yourself in front of me.
494
00:31:40,633 --> 00:31:43,033
You disrespected me.
That's what you're doing.
495
00:31:43,035 --> 00:31:44,534
You little nasty
piece of shit.
496
00:31:46,338 --> 00:31:49,539
-[Michael] You don't remember?
-I... I don't remember.
497
00:31:50,509 --> 00:31:55,612
[Michael] Okay. Well, uh, let's
move on for the moment. Uh...
498
00:31:57,516 --> 00:32:01,051
after the Myers you moved in
with the Ryan family. Uh...
499
00:32:02,655 --> 00:32:04,254
do you remember
the Ryan family?
500
00:32:05,157 --> 00:32:07,157
You stayed with them
before the Randolphs.
501
00:32:07,159 --> 00:32:08,659
Don't you remember?
502
00:32:09,695 --> 00:32:11,428
You lived with them.
503
00:32:19,104 --> 00:32:20,938
You'll get two
of these a month.
504
00:32:22,341 --> 00:32:24,708
[Jamal] Miss Dupree. [crying]
505
00:32:24,710 --> 00:32:26,576
Look at me.
506
00:32:29,949 --> 00:32:34,251
-You look at me.
-Miss Dupree!
507
00:32:35,688 --> 00:32:38,622
Miss Dupree! Please.
508
00:32:40,259 --> 00:32:41,625
Jamal.
509
00:32:43,495 --> 00:32:45,195
Jamal.
510
00:32:45,197 --> 00:32:46,596
Jamal, I asked you a question.
511
00:32:46,598 --> 00:32:49,266
What... what... what, man?
512
00:32:50,469 --> 00:32:53,003
What do you remember
about the Ryans?
513
00:32:57,743 --> 00:33:00,444
-Nothing.
-Jesus Christ.
514
00:33:00,446 --> 00:33:02,512
Excuse me, Counselor.
515
00:33:02,514 --> 00:33:04,381
He said nothing.
516
00:33:04,383 --> 00:33:07,050
Let's move on to the next
line of questions.
517
00:33:07,052 --> 00:33:09,152
Your Honor,
may I have a quick
word with my client?
518
00:33:10,556 --> 00:33:13,557
-Okay, we'll take
a five-minute recess.
-[gavel]
519
00:33:15,094 --> 00:33:18,595
[Michael] You asked why do you
have to have me as your lawyer.
520
00:33:19,665 --> 00:33:22,032
Why do I have to have you
as my client?
521
00:33:23,102 --> 00:33:25,268
Do you ever think of that? Hmm?
522
00:33:26,438 --> 00:33:31,041
No. Because you're too busy
thinking the world
owes you something.
523
00:33:32,378 --> 00:33:36,413
I'm the bad guy, right?
I ask you to settle,
I'm a sellout.
524
00:33:36,415 --> 00:33:39,016
I wear nice clothes
and I'm a fucking three-piece.
525
00:33:40,652 --> 00:33:43,020
You don't know shit about me.
526
00:33:43,022 --> 00:33:45,122
So let me tell you
a little bit about myself.
527
00:33:45,124 --> 00:33:47,457
I know how to practice law.
That's what I know.
528
00:33:47,459 --> 00:33:49,726
I know how to win cases.
529
00:33:49,728 --> 00:33:52,529
So if you want to win,
you've got to go out there
530
00:33:52,531 --> 00:33:56,800
and you've got to tell
those 12 people getting paid
$15 a day your story.
531
00:33:56,802 --> 00:33:59,136
If you don't want to win,
then don't talk.
532
00:34:00,639 --> 00:34:03,507
-I'm trying.
-Good,
533
00:34:03,509 --> 00:34:05,609
because your five minutes
are up.
534
00:34:10,149 --> 00:34:11,248
[door closes]
535
00:34:11,250 --> 00:34:13,083
[suspenseful music]
536
00:34:15,054 --> 00:34:17,320
Tell us what happened, Jamal.
537
00:34:24,329 --> 00:34:26,296
Why did you file this lawsuit?
538
00:34:32,504 --> 00:34:36,106
Jamal, why did you file
this lawsuit?
539
00:34:37,776 --> 00:34:40,177
Answer the question,
Mr. Randolph.
540
00:34:40,179 --> 00:34:42,479
-[Michael]
Tell us what happened.
-You little piece of shit.
541
00:34:42,481 --> 00:34:45,182
Why did you file this lawsuit?
542
00:34:45,184 --> 00:34:47,451
What are we even doing here?
543
00:34:47,453 --> 00:34:50,620
-[Michael]
Tell us what happened.
-Leave me the fuck alone!
544
00:34:50,622 --> 00:34:53,723
-All of you!
You don't get it, man!
-[judge] Order.
545
00:34:53,725 --> 00:34:56,259
-You fucking listen, man.
-Order.
546
00:34:56,261 --> 00:34:59,229
You don't want to get it, right?
So fuck it. Fuck this shit.
547
00:34:59,231 --> 00:35:02,132
-Order in the court.
-Fuck it. I'm out of here.
This is some bullshit.
548
00:35:02,134 --> 00:35:04,167
-Get the fuck out of my way.
-Back in the witness stand.
549
00:35:04,169 --> 00:35:05,669
No, I'm not getting back
on the stand.
550
00:35:05,671 --> 00:35:07,304
-[officer] Calm down.
-Jamal.
551
00:35:07,306 --> 00:35:09,172
Fuck out of my way...
552
00:35:09,174 --> 00:35:11,641
-[taser]
-Hey, Jamal!
553
00:35:11,643 --> 00:35:16,246
[Jamal moans]
554
00:35:16,248 --> 00:35:17,414
[Michael] Easy.
555
00:35:17,416 --> 00:35:19,816
[Jamal moans]
556
00:35:19,818 --> 00:35:24,521
[indistinct chatter]
557
00:35:24,523 --> 00:35:26,189
Get up.
558
00:35:26,191 --> 00:35:27,724
[judge] Get him out of here.
559
00:35:29,161 --> 00:35:31,361
[Jamal] I told you, man.
I told you.
560
00:35:31,363 --> 00:35:34,831
[judge] Ladies and gentlemen,
yeah, the trial resumes
561
00:35:34,833 --> 00:35:37,400
tomorrow morning at 9:00 am.
562
00:35:38,470 --> 00:35:40,470
[dramatic music]
563
00:35:50,883 --> 00:35:53,150
Michael, can I talk to you?
564
00:35:53,152 --> 00:35:55,285
Tell Jeff, he'll fill me in.
565
00:35:55,287 --> 00:35:56,753
No, Sir, I need to talk to you.
566
00:35:56,755 --> 00:36:02,859
I think you should stop
talking at Jamal
and try listening to him.
567
00:36:02,861 --> 00:36:04,694
Have you been
paying attention at all?
568
00:36:04,696 --> 00:36:06,463
That's all I do is listen.
569
00:36:07,499 --> 00:36:09,499
You want to help me,
tell him to start talking
570
00:36:09,501 --> 00:36:10,901
or we're going to lose
this case.
571
00:36:12,604 --> 00:36:14,171
Jamal left these behind.
572
00:36:15,240 --> 00:36:17,274
I think it'd be good
for you to take a look.
573
00:37:02,888 --> 00:37:05,288
[soft music]
574
00:38:13,592 --> 00:38:17,060
-Why are you here?
-Because I'm your lawyer.
575
00:38:19,598 --> 00:38:23,300
You can withdraw from the case.
I'm not gonna fight you on it.
576
00:38:23,302 --> 00:38:27,037
I don't want to.
I believe you.
577
00:38:27,973 --> 00:38:32,042
I lost my shit
and the jury see me get tased,
578
00:38:32,044 --> 00:38:33,677
so the game...
579
00:38:34,813 --> 00:38:37,981
-is over.
-Now, the good news is
580
00:38:37,983 --> 00:38:40,517
that the jury decides
when it's over
581
00:38:40,519 --> 00:38:42,852
and they haven't decided.
582
00:38:42,854 --> 00:38:44,854
You left these
in the courtroom.
583
00:38:48,927 --> 00:38:50,026
What are they?
584
00:38:51,730 --> 00:38:54,097
They're my verses.
585
00:38:54,099 --> 00:38:55,332
Verses?
586
00:38:56,601 --> 00:38:57,600
Yeah.
587
00:38:59,604 --> 00:39:01,338
About my past.
588
00:39:01,340 --> 00:39:03,940
-Would you read them to me?
-Hell, no.
589
00:39:05,510 --> 00:39:07,677
Ain't gonna happen.
You're tripping.
590
00:39:07,679 --> 00:39:09,412
Read them to me anyway.
591
00:39:12,517 --> 00:39:13,883
[Jamal] Man, you're crazy.
592
00:39:17,856 --> 00:39:20,423
My ex-wife
would agree with you.
593
00:39:20,425 --> 00:39:22,092
-Read them to me.
-No.
594
00:39:23,495 --> 00:39:24,794
You ain't gonna get it.
595
00:39:35,140 --> 00:39:37,374
Read them to me.
596
00:39:37,376 --> 00:39:38,541
No,
597
00:39:40,812 --> 00:39:42,645
you're not gonna get it.
598
00:39:42,647 --> 00:39:44,581
[dramatic music]
599
00:40:42,941 --> 00:40:44,007
"Counting my...

days from the cage.
601
00:40:54,820 --> 00:40:56,219
In so many ways
602
00:41:00,926 --> 00:41:02,592
it's all that I've known.
603
00:41:05,630 --> 00:41:06,930
Cell's been my home.
604

Chaotic environments.

I've been growing with violence,

still scream..."
607
00:41:25,083 --> 00:41:26,850
It's stupid.
608
00:41:27,786 --> 00:41:32,655
No, no, it's not stupid.
609
00:41:40,966 --> 00:41:44,067
-[Jeff] Yeah. I--
-[indistinct chatter
over the phone]
610
00:41:44,069 --> 00:41:47,136
Actually I got it right here.
Michael, I got Reynolds.
611
00:41:48,874 --> 00:41:51,140
He's looking at your notes
on the German case.
You got a second?
612
00:41:52,944 --> 00:41:55,712
Tell him we're busy
with this case.
613
00:41:55,714 --> 00:41:58,147
He's on his own.
614
00:41:58,149 --> 00:42:00,850
-[Reynolds] I need you to try--
-I'm gonna have
to get back to you.
615
00:42:00,852 --> 00:42:03,753
- I can't run it without him.
-I... I don't know
what to tell you.

-Hi.
-Hi.

00:42:13,732 --> 00:42:16,633
Benny gets his leg braces
off today, right?
620
00:42:16,635 --> 00:42:17,734
Could I speak to him?
621
00:42:17,736 --> 00:42:18,768
Sure.
622
00:42:21,940 --> 00:42:24,607
-Hello.
-Hey, how you feeling?
623
00:42:24,609 --> 00:42:28,645
Good. How... how's the case
going? Did you win?
624
00:42:28,647 --> 00:42:30,613
Well, not yet,
it's a tough one.
625
00:42:30,615 --> 00:42:32,015
Don't you always win?
626
00:42:32,017 --> 00:42:33,683
Not always, no.
627
00:42:33,685 --> 00:42:35,318
Well, you should win this one.
628
00:42:35,320 --> 00:42:36,953
Well, I'm gonna do my best.

00:42:40,859 --> 00:42:41,858
Here's Mom.

Listen, Kim,
you think I could have Ben

-for the Thanksgiving weekend?
-In Chicago?
632
00:42:50,969 --> 00:42:53,970
Yeah, you put him on the plane,
I'll pick him up
on the other end.
633
00:42:53,972 --> 00:42:56,105
It'll be nice,
the two of us can hang out.
634
00:42:56,107 --> 00:42:58,041
I don't know.
635
00:42:59,010 --> 00:43:00,977
Well, will you think about it?
636
00:43:01,913 --> 00:43:03,813
Yeah, yeah, I'll think about it.

Hello.

No, it's fine,
I'm... I'm wide awake.
640

Again, I am very sorry
to bother you, Sir,
641
00:43:41,820 --> 00:43:44,887
but a man left you
an urgent package.

-Did you see who left it?
-No, Sir.
643
00:43:47,225 --> 00:43:49,025
Thanks, Sanjay.

-Where's Jeff?
-I don't know.

00:44:16,721 --> 00:44:19,288
I... I checked his room
and nobody answered.
647
00:44:19,290 --> 00:44:21,391
Well, it is 5:30 in the morning.
648
00:44:21,393 --> 00:44:23,860
Somebody dropped off
a dozen Bellcore documents
649
00:44:23,862 --> 00:44:26,663
showing that Joey Poule
had a history of violence.
650
00:44:26,665 --> 00:44:28,998
He molested his own sister
and his niece.

-God knows
how many other children.
-Jesus.
652

I need you to find out
who dropped those off.
653
00:44:33,405 --> 00:44:34,971
Okay.
654
00:44:34,973 --> 00:44:38,174
And, Keisha, thank you. I...
655
00:44:39,310 --> 00:44:42,412
I apologize for not being
more properly dressed.

How?
660
00:45:13,812 --> 00:45:14,977

Uh, I... I have an appointment.

00:46:52,076 --> 00:46:55,444
[Kim over radio]
Hi. How are you?
How is the trial going?
674
00:46:55,446 --> 00:46:57,480
Uh, it's different.
675
00:46:58,349 --> 00:47:01,484
-[Kim] How?
-My client's telling the truth.
676
00:47:01,486 --> 00:47:04,554
Oh, wow, that's something
different for you, huh.
677
00:47:04,556 --> 00:47:07,023
Yeah, it's something.
678
00:47:07,025 --> 00:47:10,126
So I... I talked to Benny
about Thanksgiving.
679
00:47:10,128 --> 00:47:13,162
He said yes.
And I want him to go see you.
680
00:47:13,164 --> 00:47:14,964
I think it'll be good
for both of you.
681
00:47:14,966 --> 00:47:17,333
That's great. Tell him
I can't wait to see him.
682
00:47:17,335 --> 00:47:21,003
-We'll go ride horses
in the park.
-Horses?
683
00:47:21,005 --> 00:47:24,273
Well, don't worry,
they're old nags,
they don't go very fast.
684
00:47:24,275 --> 00:47:28,211
Okay. Just be careful, Michael,
he just got those braces off.
685
00:47:28,213 --> 00:47:31,147
Of course, yeah. Um...
686
00:47:34,986 --> 00:47:36,185
Bye?
687
00:47:38,289 --> 00:47:39,422
Bye.
688
00:47:40,625 --> 00:47:42,959
[suspenseful music continues]
689
00:47:53,171 --> 00:47:57,506
[man] Yes. No, I'll be overseas.
690
00:47:59,510 --> 00:48:01,510
[scoffs] He wasn't angry.
691
00:48:03,181 --> 00:48:04,247
I know.
692
00:48:07,051 --> 00:48:10,920
Yeah. Open it.
I'll call you back.
693
00:48:10,922 --> 00:48:12,388
We took the trouble
of calculating
694
00:48:12,390 --> 00:48:14,490
how much
you stand to gain if this
695
00:48:14,492 --> 00:48:17,293
-public offering goes through.
-It will go through, Simon.
696
00:48:17,295 --> 00:48:19,462
There's no reason
to think it won't.
697
00:48:19,464 --> 00:48:23,900
Did you know
that we are Cal Air's
biggest corporate client?
698
00:48:23,902 --> 00:48:26,002
I... I did not.
699
00:48:26,004 --> 00:48:27,370
You should have.
700
00:48:29,207 --> 00:48:32,008
Play harder. We can't lose this.
701
00:48:35,013 --> 00:48:37,914
[music continues]
702
00:48:42,620 --> 00:48:44,987
-Jeff, can you check on that?
-Yeah.
703
00:48:44,989 --> 00:48:46,555
Excuse me. Michael.
704
00:48:50,094 --> 00:48:52,328
What is this?
Some kind of a joke?
705
00:48:52,330 --> 00:48:53,963
I'm afraid not.
706
00:48:55,633 --> 00:48:57,033
[Michael] Come on.
707
00:49:02,307 --> 00:49:04,140
Tim,
this is Michael Trainer calling.
708
00:49:04,142 --> 00:49:06,709
I just received
some very alarming news.
709
00:49:06,711 --> 00:49:08,311
Could you please call me back?
710
00:49:20,992 --> 00:49:25,261
Hey, hey, Dupree.
711
00:49:25,263 --> 00:49:27,063
You're behind this,
aren't you?
712
00:49:27,065 --> 00:49:29,131
What did you say to Cal Air?
713
00:49:29,133 --> 00:49:31,500
Cal Air makes its own decisions,
Mr. Trainer,
714
00:49:31,502 --> 00:49:33,970
and they decided not to work
with you anymore.
715
00:49:33,972 --> 00:49:36,072
You're a real piece of shit,
you know that?
716
00:49:37,342 --> 00:49:39,375
Be careful, Mr. Trainer.
717
00:49:39,377 --> 00:49:41,577
Cal Air was just the beginning.
718
00:49:53,291 --> 00:49:55,524
Give me the Bellcore file.
719
00:49:55,526 --> 00:49:57,360
-Sir, the file is--
-What Bellcore file?
720
00:49:57,362 --> 00:49:59,595
Your Honor, I'd like to recall
721
00:49:59,597 --> 00:50:01,230
Jamal Randolph to the stand.
722
00:50:01,232 --> 00:50:02,732
You may proceed.
723
00:50:02,734 --> 00:50:05,334
Jamal, I need you
to go back on the stand.
724
00:50:05,336 --> 00:50:07,470
All you have to do is say yes.
I'll do the rest.
725
00:50:07,472 --> 00:50:09,739
Michael, what are you doing?
726
00:50:12,276 --> 00:50:15,177
[suspenseful music]
727
00:50:21,219 --> 00:50:23,352
[Michael] Jamal, you were
tortured in the Ryan home
728
00:50:23,354 --> 00:50:25,554
and their own file shows that,
isn't that true?
729
00:50:25,556 --> 00:50:27,456
What file?
Objection, Your Honor.
730
00:50:27,458 --> 00:50:30,092
Your own file shows
that they placed Joey Poule
731
00:50:30,094 --> 00:50:31,327
-and Randolph--
-Side bar, please.
732
00:50:31,329 --> 00:50:32,628
Counselor!
733
00:50:32,630 --> 00:50:33,696
...this previous sexual assault.
734
00:50:33,698 --> 00:50:35,498
Counselor!
735
00:50:39,170 --> 00:50:40,469
[door opens]
736
00:50:43,074 --> 00:50:45,341
Judge, I have several case notes
to show that Bellcore
737
00:50:45,343 --> 00:50:48,577
knew that Joey Poule
had sexually assaulted
other children.
738
00:50:48,579 --> 00:50:51,047
I have never seen
these documents.
739
00:50:51,049 --> 00:50:52,114
Can I see that?
740
00:50:57,188 --> 00:50:58,821
Where'd you get this?
741
00:50:58,823 --> 00:51:00,756
Someone dropped them off
at my hotel.
742
00:51:00,758 --> 00:51:03,426
Judge,
this is what discovery is for.
743
00:51:03,428 --> 00:51:06,062
Without any... any foundation
how do we establish
744
00:51:06,064 --> 00:51:08,497
the authenticity
of these documents?
How do we know Mr. Trainer
745
00:51:08,499 --> 00:51:10,166
didn't create
these documents himself?
746
00:51:10,168 --> 00:51:12,234
-That's bullshit.
-It's enough.
747
00:51:12,236 --> 00:51:14,703
He has no witness
to lay a foundation.
748
00:51:14,705 --> 00:51:16,305
How do you know?
749
00:51:16,307 --> 00:51:18,307
I'm making a really good guess.
750
00:51:21,279 --> 00:51:22,311
Do you?
751
00:51:25,249 --> 00:51:29,118
-No, not yet.
-You can be damn sure
unless you can find the person
752
00:51:29,120 --> 00:51:31,520
who can authenticate
this document,
753
00:51:31,522 --> 00:51:33,322
it's not going in.
754
00:51:38,229 --> 00:51:43,599
Ms. Dupree, you were
Jamal Randolph and Joey Poule's
caseworker for four years
755
00:51:43,601 --> 00:51:46,335
and you're telling the jury
that you had no knowledge
756
00:51:46,337 --> 00:51:49,572
that Joey Poule sexually
assaulted Jamal Randolph?
757
00:51:49,574 --> 00:51:51,373
-Objection, Your Honor.
-Sustained.
758
00:51:51,375 --> 00:51:53,175
Counsel, you've asked
the same question
759
00:51:53,177 --> 00:51:54,844
three straight times. Move on.
760
00:51:54,846 --> 00:52:00,282
Apparently, putting your hand
on the Bible and taking
the oath means nothing.
761
00:52:00,284 --> 00:52:02,118
What was that you said,
Counselor?
762
00:52:02,120 --> 00:52:03,452
[Michael] Nothing, Your Honor.
763
00:52:08,493 --> 00:52:12,361
I'd like to show you
what's been marked
as exhibit number 23.
764
00:52:12,363 --> 00:52:14,497
Objection, Your Honor.
765
00:52:14,499 --> 00:52:17,600
If this document is not already
familiar to the witness,
766
00:52:17,602 --> 00:52:19,835
then there is no foundation
for its introduction.
767
00:52:19,837 --> 00:52:21,303
Take it down.
768
00:52:26,811 --> 00:52:29,578
I'm showing you a copy
of a mental health record
769
00:52:29,580 --> 00:52:33,415
that shows
that Joey Poule raped
his own sister and cousin.
770
00:52:33,417 --> 00:52:34,884
-Objection, Your Honor.
-Sustained.
771
00:52:34,886 --> 00:52:36,819
Counselor, show that document
772
00:52:36,821 --> 00:52:40,256
to Ms. Dupree and see
if she recognizes it first.
773
00:52:42,193 --> 00:52:43,559
You recognize that document?
774
00:52:48,166 --> 00:52:49,865
Never saw it before, Counselor.
775
00:52:49,867 --> 00:52:52,234
[suspenseful music]
776
00:52:52,236 --> 00:52:55,304
[judge] The jury is instructed
to disregard it.
777
00:52:55,306 --> 00:52:56,639
Move on.
778
00:52:57,575 --> 00:52:58,674
Ms. Dupree,
779
00:53:01,279 --> 00:53:05,814
-did you know Joey Poule
raped his sister?
-No, I did not.
780
00:53:05,816 --> 00:53:09,285
-Did you know
that he raped his cousin?
-I never knew.
781
00:53:09,287 --> 00:53:12,521
Did you know that he beat
and raped Jamal Randolph?
782
00:53:12,523 --> 00:53:15,424
Never knew any of it, Counselor.
783
00:53:23,234 --> 00:53:27,503
Okay, ladies and gentlemen,
it's time
for our Thanksgiving break.
784
00:53:27,505 --> 00:53:29,905
And the jury is instructed
not to discuss this case
785
00:53:29,907 --> 00:53:31,941
or to read about it.
786
00:53:33,945 --> 00:53:35,678
[man] All rise.
787
00:53:40,518 --> 00:53:42,651
-[Jamal] She's lying.
-[Michael] I know she is.
788
00:53:42,653 --> 00:53:45,221
[Jeff] We should take
their last offer.
789
00:53:45,223 --> 00:53:47,523
And why would we do that?
790
00:53:47,525 --> 00:53:50,326
We can't introduce a damn thing.
I know they'd settle
this right now.
791
00:53:50,328 --> 00:53:53,729
No, we're playing the game.
792
00:53:55,866 --> 00:53:57,233
There's your answer.
793
00:54:01,239 --> 00:54:03,472
I'm, uh... I'm gonna grab
a flight out.
794
00:54:03,474 --> 00:54:07,476
-What?
-It's, uh... it's
Thanksgiving weekend, right?
795
00:54:07,478 --> 00:54:09,345
Right.
But you be back Saturday.
796
00:54:10,715 --> 00:54:12,481
You're not coming back, are you?
797
00:54:14,952 --> 00:54:17,686
When Michael found out
about Cal Air,
you weren't surprised.
798
00:54:17,688 --> 00:54:18,687
You knew.
799
00:54:20,324 --> 00:54:22,925
I'm leaving.
I'm starting my own firm.
800
00:54:22,927 --> 00:54:25,761
-With no clients.
-Cal Air is going with him.
801
00:54:28,032 --> 00:54:29,732
Is that true?
802
00:54:29,734 --> 00:54:31,867
Ten years
and this is what it comes to?
803
00:54:31,869 --> 00:54:33,736
You had your day, Michael.
804
00:54:33,738 --> 00:54:37,473
You're making a fool
of yourself in that courtroom,
isn't that obvious?
805
00:54:37,475 --> 00:54:38,807
Dupree got to you, didn't she?
806
00:54:38,809 --> 00:54:40,709
That's what they do, Jeff.
807
00:54:40,711 --> 00:54:43,946
No loyalty.
People like Dupree go to Cal Air
808
00:54:43,948 --> 00:54:45,714
and make deals
and people like you accept them.
809
00:54:45,716 --> 00:54:47,950
For 10 years
I watched you get rich off
810
00:54:47,952 --> 00:54:50,519
of companies like Bellcore
destroying anyone
who got in your way
811
00:54:50,521 --> 00:54:53,922
and now, all of a sudden,
you have a change of heart.
812
00:54:53,924 --> 00:54:57,459
You think defending that kid
makes you some kind of savior?
813
00:54:58,562 --> 00:54:59,928
You should have settled.
814
00:55:01,866 --> 00:55:03,299
Happy Thanksgiving.
815
00:55:13,644 --> 00:55:16,345
[Kim] Please, leave a message.
816
00:55:16,347 --> 00:55:19,615
Kim, it's Michael. I've called,
left a couple of messages.
817
00:55:19,617 --> 00:55:21,750
I haven't heard back.
818
00:55:21,752 --> 00:55:24,019
I still don't have
Benny's flight information.
819
00:55:24,021 --> 00:55:25,521
Can you please call me?
820
00:55:28,726 --> 00:55:31,960
[panting]
821
00:55:35,633 --> 00:55:38,600
Mr. Trainer,
I've just received an urgent
message from your wife.
822
00:55:39,570 --> 00:55:42,604
That's weird. Why...
why wouldn't she have
called my cell?
823
00:55:42,606 --> 00:55:44,840
She said she couldn't get
through to your mobile phone.
824
00:55:44,842 --> 00:55:46,975
She wanted me to let you know
that your son's
changed his mind.
825
00:55:46,977 --> 00:55:48,911
He won't make it
for Thanksgiving.
826
00:55:49,814 --> 00:55:50,879
Yeah.
827
00:55:51,782 --> 00:55:52,848
Sorry, Sir.
828
00:55:54,418 --> 00:55:55,384
Thanks.

Yo.

00:58:51,529 --> 00:58:53,962
-What the hell happened to you?
-I was jogging.

Somebody almost ran me over.
Get in.

You think it was Bellcore.
871
00:59:06,644 --> 00:59:09,244
Could have been an accident.
872
00:59:09,246 --> 00:59:11,013
I think it was a warning.

[knocking on door]
874
00:59:46,183 --> 00:59:48,116
Mr. Cohen,
we need to speak to you.
875
00:59:51,121 --> 00:59:55,190
I know you're the one
that dropped those documents
off at my hotel.
876
00:59:58,696 --> 01:00:00,262
I need you to testify.
877
01:00:07,304 --> 01:00:11,173
You have no idea what
these people are capable of.
878
01:00:11,175 --> 01:00:12,240
Do you remember Jamal?
879
01:00:14,044 --> 01:00:17,913
-Hey, Mr. Cohen.
-I want you to look
at this young man's face
880
01:00:17,915 --> 01:00:20,115
and tell him that you
are not going to help him.
881
01:00:22,186 --> 01:00:23,919
I never wanted you to get hurt.
882
01:00:23,921 --> 01:00:25,721
I never wanted
any of them to get hurt.
883
01:00:25,723 --> 01:00:26,922
But we did.
884
01:00:29,860 --> 01:00:31,627
The more placements that fail,
885
01:00:31,629 --> 01:00:34,363
the more money
that Bellcore makes, okay?
886
01:00:34,365 --> 01:00:36,298
Wait, how did they fail?
887
01:00:40,838 --> 01:00:43,171
Let's say that the government
pays 3000 bucks
888
01:00:43,173 --> 01:00:44,940
per foster care placement,
889
01:00:44,942 --> 01:00:46,408
but it doesn't work out.
890
01:00:46,410 --> 01:00:49,378
So then,
Bellcore places the kid again
891
01:00:49,380 --> 01:00:51,413
and they make
another 3000 bucks.
892
01:00:52,316 --> 01:00:55,684
The whole system
is designed to fail.
893
01:00:55,686 --> 01:00:57,786
Mr. Cohen, I need you
to tell this to the jury.
894
01:00:57,788 --> 01:00:59,221
I can't.
895
01:00:59,223 --> 01:01:00,822
Mr. Cohen.

You know, sometimes
this shit is so thick
900
01:01:13,437 --> 01:01:15,771
that the only thing you can do
is laugh, Mr. Trainer.
901
01:01:15,773 --> 01:01:17,005
It's not funny.
902
01:01:18,208 --> 01:01:19,441
We're gonna lose.
903
01:01:20,344 --> 01:01:22,244
No, we're not.
904
01:01:24,848 --> 01:01:26,882
-It's okay.
-No, it's not okay.
905
01:01:26,884 --> 01:01:29,051
No, it is.
You fought for me
906
01:01:30,087 --> 01:01:31,319
and that means something.
907
01:01:33,857 --> 01:01:34,956
It's not okay.
908
01:01:42,866 --> 01:01:44,766
Is there something else
on your mind?

No, nothing.

and he cancelled, all right?

It's really tough. Sorry.
912
01:02:02,820 --> 01:02:06,388
Yeah. Well, it's my own fault.
I haven't been the best father.
913
01:02:09,126 --> 01:02:10,826
How old is your son?

01:08:15,358 --> 01:08:16,825
Yeah, well, I'm betting you...
1018

[indistinct chatter]
1019
01:08:21,198 --> 01:08:23,231
Shit happens.
Right, little bro?
1020
01:08:25,168 --> 01:08:28,670
Nah, you need
to step back, Joey.
1021
01:08:32,375 --> 01:08:33,391
I'm not a kid anymore.
1022
01:08:33,392 --> 01:08:34,408
I just want to say "hi"
to my little brother.
1023
01:08:35,812 --> 01:08:37,312
That's all.
1024
01:08:47,858 --> 01:08:49,824
You got tall,
1025
01:08:52,229 --> 01:08:53,795
but you are still a pussy.
1026
01:08:56,600 --> 01:08:58,533
We had a good time, me and you
1027
01:08:59,903 --> 01:09:01,436
in that barn, right?
1028
01:09:07,677 --> 01:09:09,177
I know you liked it.
1029
01:09:09,179 --> 01:09:12,447
You like this, huh, big bro?
1030
01:09:12,449 --> 01:09:14,315
I'm gonna fucking
kill you, Joey!
1031
01:09:14,317 --> 01:09:17,318
I was a fucking kid.
I was a kid.
1032
01:09:17,320 --> 01:09:19,320
Fuck you, you...

What the fuck
are you looking at, huh?
1037
01:09:42,245 --> 01:09:43,378
You're lucky.
1038
01:09:44,915 --> 01:09:46,181
I'm not lucky.

was held up, but your son
1042

was about to be placed
into emergency--
1043
01:09:57,761 --> 01:10:00,428
But where is he?
Where's my son?
1044

-Dad.

You got a visitor.

Put your shoes on.
1051
01:10:40,437 --> 01:10:42,870
How did Joey Poule
end up in my cell, huh?
1052
01:10:43,740 --> 01:10:45,240
How the fuck should I know?
1053
01:10:45,875 --> 01:10:47,976
I think you fucking know.
1054
01:10:47,978 --> 01:10:49,744
I don't give a fuck
what you think.
1055
01:10:50,614 --> 01:10:52,280
Move back.
1056
01:11:10,667 --> 01:11:12,033
Let go of my fucking arm.

They try and run you over again?

They, uh...
1060
01:11:35,859 --> 01:11:37,025
they took my son.
1061
01:11:37,027 --> 01:11:38,993
Oh, shit! He all right?
1062
01:11:38,995 --> 01:11:41,462
Yeah. He's fine.
1063

We've been bringing a knife
to a gunfight.

1065

straighten this shit out
a little bit.

What?

How much?

I came here to bail you out.

I don't want
to get bailed out yet.
1079

Send Keisha
to bail me out tomorrow.

all right?

I got this.

Guard!
1086
01:13:15,024 --> 01:13:16,924
Don't look so mad, all right?
1087
01:13:16,926 --> 01:13:19,527
It don't suit you.
I know I got it right.

Who are these people?
1091
01:13:53,997 --> 01:13:56,130
What are they capable of?

I, honestly, don't know.

Are you safe?
1095
01:14:09,646 --> 01:14:10,878
Oh, yeah.
1096
01:14:15,785 --> 01:14:17,819
But I don't think it's safe
for you and Benny.
1097
01:14:19,222 --> 01:14:21,556
I think you should go back
to Los Angeles.

Shut that, D.

Would you do something?

[dramatic music]

01:17:05,288 --> 01:17:09,357
Cop gave me 2k. Said he needed
me to be in jail here with you.
1144
01:17:11,728 --> 01:17:12,927
I rough you up,
1145
01:17:14,897 --> 01:17:17,098
cut you, if I needed to.
1146

-[Jamal] Why?
-[Joey] I don't know why.
I don't know why.
1147
01:17:20,803 --> 01:17:22,670
I didn't have
much of a choice, dude.
1148
01:17:22,672 --> 01:17:24,372
I mean they got me
on some drummed-up shit.
1149
01:17:24,374 --> 01:17:27,208
-I don't know why.
-[Jamal] What happened?
1150
01:17:27,210 --> 01:17:28,976
[Joey] Man, I just told you
what happened.
1151
01:17:28,978 --> 01:17:31,278
[Jamal]
What happened to you, Joey?
1152
01:17:31,280 --> 01:17:33,814
[Joey]
The same shit that always
happens to guys like you and me.
1153
01:17:35,385 --> 01:17:37,251
That is not my fault.
1154
01:17:40,890 --> 01:17:43,858
[music continues]
1155
01:17:49,799 --> 01:17:52,867
Your Honor, may I approach?
1156
01:17:57,974 --> 01:18:00,941
Your Honor,
my client has several notebooks.
1157
01:18:00,943 --> 01:18:04,011
I'd like him
to be able to use them
to refresh his recollection.
1158
01:18:04,013 --> 01:18:06,814
I object, Your Honor.
They have never been produced
in discovery.
1159
01:18:06,816 --> 01:18:09,884
Your Honor,
a witness can use notes
to refresh recollections.
1160
01:18:11,054 --> 01:18:12,420
-I'll allow it.
-Thank you.
1161
01:18:12,422 --> 01:18:17,892
Your Honor, there is one
more thing, my client
will need to rap his testimony.
1162
01:18:17,894 --> 01:18:21,228
I'm sorry, excuse me.
Did you say "rap"?
1163
01:18:21,230 --> 01:18:24,365
-Are you serious, Counselor?
-Uh, well, First Amendment,
1164
01:18:24,367 --> 01:18:26,867
right to testify.
If the only way my client
1165
01:18:26,869 --> 01:18:28,402
can tell his story
is through rapping
1166
01:18:28,404 --> 01:18:30,705
-then you cannot deny him.
-Uh, Your Honor,
1167
01:18:30,707 --> 01:18:33,374
he has cited
no case law or precedent.
1168
01:18:34,277 --> 01:18:37,144
Your Honor, the Americans
with Disabilities Act, require
1169
01:18:37,146 --> 01:18:40,147
court to accommodate a witness
if he or she has difficulty
communicating.
1170
01:18:40,149 --> 01:18:43,250
No such difficulty
has ever been established
in this case, Your Honor.
1171
01:18:43,252 --> 01:18:45,920
In the case
of United States versus Durant,
1172
01:18:45,922 --> 01:18:49,256
the witness suffered from PTSD
and had a comfort animal, a dog.
1173
01:18:49,258 --> 01:18:51,759
Okay, okay,
a notebook is not a dog
1174
01:18:51,761 --> 01:18:53,427
and this plaintiff
is not disabled.
1175
01:18:53,429 --> 01:18:56,063
Here are a line of cases
where the court allowed
1176
01:18:56,065 --> 01:18:59,200
for interpreters
or even allowed a woman to speak
while holding her child.
1177
01:18:59,202 --> 01:19:01,902
-This is absurd, Your Honor.
-And in the case
1178
01:19:01,904 --> 01:19:03,904
of Michaels versus Donnelly,
the court allowed a man
1179
01:19:03,906 --> 01:19:07,108
afraid of crowds to face
the wall while testifying.
1180
01:19:12,081 --> 01:19:13,314
I'll allow it.
1181
01:19:15,118 --> 01:19:16,117
Thank you.
1182
01:19:17,987 --> 01:19:20,221
Don't overstep
your balance, Counselor.
1183
01:19:23,059 --> 01:19:24,058
Are you ready?
1184
01:19:27,463 --> 01:19:31,031
This motherfucker's itching
to tase me again, man.
I know it.
1185
01:19:31,934 --> 01:19:33,100
You'll be fine.
1186
01:19:40,042 --> 01:19:42,777
[Michael]
The plaintiff recalls
Jamal Randolph to the stand.
1187
01:19:42,779 --> 01:19:44,278
Note my continuing objection.
1188
01:19:44,280 --> 01:19:46,080
Your continuing objection noted,
1189
01:19:46,082 --> 01:19:48,115
now continue to sit down.
1190
01:19:48,117 --> 01:19:50,017
[scoffs]
1191
01:19:50,019 --> 01:19:51,552
[dramatic music]
1192
01:19:52,421 --> 01:19:55,556
[Michael]
Jamal, you write, don't you?
1193
01:20:03,966 --> 01:20:04,999
Yeah.
1194
01:20:05,835 --> 01:20:08,803
-Lyrics, poems...
-Verses.
1195
01:20:11,140 --> 01:20:12,873
I write verses.
1196
01:20:12,875 --> 01:20:15,509
Verses, yes, I'm sorry.
1197
01:20:15,511 --> 01:20:19,079
Uh, verses
about what happened to you
1198
01:20:19,081 --> 01:20:22,183
and you keep them
in those notebooks,
is that correct?
1199
01:20:23,352 --> 01:20:28,122
-Yeah.
-Now, I'm going to ask you
some questions.
1200
01:20:28,124 --> 01:20:30,324
You don't have to look
at anybody.
1201
01:20:30,326 --> 01:20:32,593
You don't
have to look at the jury.
You don't have to look at me.
1202
01:20:33,930 --> 01:20:37,498
Just tell us
what happened. Okay?
1203
01:20:42,939 --> 01:20:44,872
[music continues]
1204
01:20:58,387 --> 01:21:00,354
"By age eight a cruel fate,
1205
01:21:02,024 --> 01:21:03,424
found a meaning and lost it.
1206
01:21:04,493 --> 01:21:07,561
Ripped from the comfort
of a family and taken by cops,
1207
01:21:09,532 --> 01:21:13,534
the foster boy, a broken toy,
a plaything, now a victim
1208
01:21:14,604 --> 01:21:16,937
going through revolving doors
1209
01:21:18,541 --> 01:21:20,507
of a foster care system.
1210
01:21:22,578 --> 01:21:26,046
[sobbing] No, mama.
1211
01:21:27,049 --> 01:21:28,382
Why, mama?
1212
01:21:31,621 --> 01:21:34,355
Now, you ain't my real mama,
you my high mama.
1213
01:21:37,293 --> 01:21:39,960
All I wanted was a hug
and a hi, mama.
1214
01:21:43,499 --> 01:21:46,133
Take your fucking hands
from my thigh, mama.
1215
01:21:50,606 --> 01:21:52,006
Flame of a lighter,
1216
01:21:53,476 --> 01:21:57,578
Stephanie Myers, cigarette
and Guinness-style crack pipe
1217
01:21:57,580 --> 01:22:00,047
hanging from my mouth
spent all-nighters,
1218
01:22:00,683 --> 01:22:03,584
watching talk shows all alone
on the couch.
1219
01:22:05,087 --> 01:22:07,454
Hide and seek, ain't a game
1220
01:22:07,456 --> 01:22:09,456
if I'm screaming ouch!
1221
01:22:10,426 --> 01:22:11,659
'Cause if she takes a hit,
1222
01:22:13,696 --> 01:22:15,462
then I'm taking hits.
1223
01:22:18,167 --> 01:22:21,268
I'm hoping she quits
'cause I can't take this shit."
1224
01:22:28,177 --> 01:22:29,677
[sobbing]
1225
01:22:37,219 --> 01:22:38,452
[Michael] You want a break?
1226
01:22:40,990 --> 01:22:43,624
No, no, no break. I'm cool.
1227
01:22:44,994 --> 01:22:46,026
[Michael] Okay.
1228
01:22:47,330 --> 01:22:49,730
Jamal, I'm gonna ask you
about the Ryan family.
1229
01:22:51,100 --> 01:22:53,067
Can you tell us about the Ryans?
1230
01:22:54,236 --> 01:22:55,336
Yeah.
1231
01:22:58,541 --> 01:23:00,674
I ain't never gonna forget
the Ryans.
1232
01:23:05,681 --> 01:23:08,015
"I'm afraid
of what I turned into.
1233
01:23:09,552 --> 01:23:11,385
Ain't what it's supposed to..."
1234
01:23:13,622 --> 01:23:15,622
You pissed the bed again?
1235
01:23:15,624 --> 01:23:18,058
[Jamal]
"All I see are walls,
1236
01:23:18,060 --> 01:23:19,393
no room at all."
1237
01:23:21,163 --> 01:23:24,264
-Why do you lie to me?
-Let go of me.
1238
01:23:24,266 --> 01:23:27,267
[Jamal] "So, where do I go to?
No one loves a bastard
1239
01:23:27,269 --> 01:23:30,104
like the misery
he's prone to.
1240
01:23:30,106 --> 01:23:31,705
- Better days..."
-[woman] Drink it.
1241
01:23:31,707 --> 01:23:34,241
-[Jamal] "And little care..."
-Drink it!
1242
01:23:35,177 --> 01:23:37,478
"Misfortune
always finds me there.
1243
01:23:38,414 --> 01:23:41,215
No matter where,
it's always near me.
1244
01:23:42,718 --> 01:23:46,153
They only want me for a check,
check, can you hear me?
1245
01:23:48,257 --> 01:23:52,292
Ryan watched.
I peed the bed.
1246
01:23:53,429 --> 01:23:58,032
He flipped the switch.
Kicked my crotch.
1247
01:23:58,034 --> 01:24:01,402
Ripped and beat me.
Trick and treat me.
1248
01:24:01,404 --> 01:24:04,371
That's who I had to call 'pops'.
1249
01:24:04,373 --> 01:24:07,274
Pop goes the lid
off the vinegar jar.
1250
01:24:07,276 --> 01:24:10,177
Pop me in the jaw,
now I'm seeing stars.
1251
01:24:12,248 --> 01:24:13,447
It's hard.
1252
01:24:18,254 --> 01:24:19,253
It's hard.
1253
01:24:26,195 --> 01:24:28,128
I'm sorry, Jamal, but...
1254
01:24:29,698 --> 01:24:32,199
we need to talk
about the Randolphs.
1255
01:24:33,135 --> 01:24:35,569
Can you tell us what happened
at the Randolph home?
1256
01:24:40,810 --> 01:24:43,143
[notebook's pages flipping]
1257
01:24:46,515 --> 01:24:47,848
[cries]
1258
01:25:05,101 --> 01:25:06,266
Joey Poule...
1259
01:25:09,371 --> 01:25:11,271
raped me for three years.
1260
01:25:12,108 --> 01:25:13,640
[dramatic music]
1261
01:25:15,311 --> 01:25:16,743
It started when I was ten.
1262
01:25:18,314 --> 01:25:20,814
Did you ever tell anyone, Jamal?
1263
01:25:22,384 --> 01:25:25,419
-Her.
-[Michael] Pamela Dupree.
1264
01:25:27,590 --> 01:25:29,523
And what did she say to you
1265
01:25:29,525 --> 01:25:31,225
when you told her, Jamal?
1266
01:25:35,397 --> 01:25:36,697
She said...
1267
01:25:38,834 --> 01:25:40,767
that I was lucky to have a home.
1268
01:25:42,505 --> 01:25:47,908
[panting]
1269
01:25:47,910 --> 01:25:50,344
[indistinct chatter]
1270
01:26:04,326 --> 01:26:07,628
Mr. Randolph, I was moved
1271
01:26:09,165 --> 01:26:12,599
by the songs
that you rapped to us
during your direct testimony,
1272
01:26:14,803 --> 01:26:18,305
but they were just that.
Am I right?
1273
01:26:19,942 --> 01:26:22,843
Songs. I... I'm...
I'm sorry. I'm sorry,
1274
01:26:23,946 --> 01:26:24,945
verses.
1275
01:26:28,350 --> 01:26:32,186
-They're the truth.
-Okay, okay. So you say.
1276
01:26:32,955 --> 01:26:35,556
So, is there anyone else
1277
01:26:35,558 --> 01:26:39,359
in the courtroom
here today who can verify
your truth for us?
1278
01:26:42,665 --> 01:26:44,464
Anyone at all?
1279
01:26:46,635 --> 01:26:50,204
No one, not Ms. Ryan,
no other foster parents,
1280
01:26:50,206 --> 01:26:53,640
not even any kids
from the neighborhood,
there's nobody here,
1281
01:26:53,642 --> 01:26:55,809
to sing the same tune as you.
1282
01:26:57,513 --> 01:26:59,446
Isn't that right?
1283
01:26:59,448 --> 01:27:01,848
-It's the truth.
-The truth,
1284
01:27:01,850 --> 01:27:03,951
the songs that you wrote down
in these notebooks?
1285
01:27:03,953 --> 01:27:05,819
Yeah, I wrote the songs.
1286
01:27:05,821 --> 01:27:08,822
Okay, are the songs
that you shared
1287
01:27:08,824 --> 01:27:10,924
with us today the only songs
that are inside the books?
1288
01:27:10,926 --> 01:27:14,494
-No.
-Well, what other
kinds of songs have you written?
1289
01:27:15,364 --> 01:27:17,331
Uh, I don't know,
a lot of stuff.
1290
01:27:17,333 --> 01:27:21,435
I mean have you ever written
any songs about say, um,
1291
01:27:21,437 --> 01:27:23,503
I don't know,
places that you've never been
1292
01:27:23,505 --> 01:27:26,540
or, uh, romances
you never actually had
1293
01:27:26,542 --> 01:27:28,575
sexual experiences
you wished you had?
1294
01:27:28,577 --> 01:27:30,777
-No.
-No, nothing
from your imagination?
1295
01:27:30,779 --> 01:27:33,280
-No.
-So,
1296
01:27:34,383 --> 01:27:36,283
I want you to be careful
here, Mr. Randolph,
1297
01:27:36,285 --> 01:27:38,318
you're telling
the court here today
1298
01:27:38,320 --> 01:27:39,920
that if we look through
these books,
1299
01:27:39,922 --> 01:27:42,256
which we can do,
which we will do,
1300
01:27:42,258 --> 01:27:45,559
that we will not find
a single song that you made up.
1301
01:27:45,561 --> 01:27:47,628
That everything
inside these notebooks,
1302
01:27:47,630 --> 01:27:50,998
there must be what?
Uh, uh, a hundred or more
1303
01:27:51,000 --> 01:27:55,402
and that every one of them
is a true factual account
1304
01:27:55,404 --> 01:27:57,404
of something
that actually happened to you?
1305
01:28:00,609 --> 01:28:05,445
-On some of the songs, yeah,
but not... not all of them.
-Fair enough.
1306
01:28:05,447 --> 01:28:07,848
Some of them are real
and some of them are made up,
1307
01:28:07,850 --> 01:28:11,652
but how can we know
the difference?
1308
01:28:11,654 --> 01:28:13,720
I'm... I'm telling you
the difference.
1309
01:28:13,722 --> 01:28:16,790
Oh, oh, I see. Okay,
1310
01:28:16,792 --> 01:28:21,328
so there is actually no evidence
1311
01:28:21,330 --> 01:28:26,400
whatsoever that any of these
so-called rapes even happened
1312
01:28:26,402 --> 01:28:28,702
except for what you
wrote down yourself
1313
01:28:28,704 --> 01:28:30,637
inside these books
1314
01:28:30,639 --> 01:28:32,939
that you've just admitted
are also filled
1315
01:28:32,941 --> 01:28:36,543
with things that you sometimes
make up from your imagination?
1316
01:28:36,545 --> 01:28:37,911
[dramatic music]
1317
01:28:39,982 --> 01:28:41,048
Yeah.
1318
01:28:42,551 --> 01:28:43,950
Thanks for clearing that up.
1319
01:28:58,867 --> 01:29:02,502
Mr. Trainer, are you ready
for closing arguments?
1320
01:29:02,504 --> 01:29:03,837
Yes, Your Honor.
1321
01:29:07,509 --> 01:29:09,376
If it may please the court,
1322
01:29:09,378 --> 01:29:11,812
-council members of the jury...
-[door opens]
1323
01:29:15,017 --> 01:29:20,954
Uh, Your Honor,
I'd like to call Daniel Cohen
to the stand, if I may?
1324
01:29:20,956 --> 01:29:23,390
You got to be kidding me.
1325
01:29:23,392 --> 01:29:25,759
-Come on up, Mr. Cohen.
-[Collins] Your Honor,
1326
01:29:25,761 --> 01:29:27,961
this witness
appears on no witness list.
1327
01:29:27,963 --> 01:29:29,830
We have no opportunity
to prepare.
1328
01:29:29,832 --> 01:29:31,832
[judge] Overruled.
Step up, Mr. Cohen.
1329
01:29:39,541 --> 01:29:41,508
[man] Do you swear to tell
the truth the whole truth
1330
01:29:41,510 --> 01:29:43,977
and nothing but the truth,
so help you God?
1331
01:29:43,979 --> 01:29:44,978
I do.
1332
01:29:48,550 --> 01:29:51,017
[Michael] State
your name for the record.
1333
01:29:51,019 --> 01:29:53,820
-Daniel Cohen.
-Daniel Cohen,
1334
01:29:53,822 --> 01:29:56,089
can you tell the jury
what you do for a living?
1335
01:29:56,091 --> 01:29:57,858
[Daniel] A social worker.
1336
01:29:57,860 --> 01:29:59,793
[Michael] How many years
were you a social worker?
1337
01:29:59,795 --> 01:30:01,628
-Fifteen.
-Could you tell the jury
1338
01:30:01,630 --> 01:30:05,465
what your relationship
is to Ms. Pamela Dupree?
1339
01:30:05,467 --> 01:30:07,868
We work together
at Bellcore Family Services.
1340
01:30:09,171 --> 01:30:11,805
Mr. Cohen, I'm showing you
what has been marked
1341
01:30:11,807 --> 01:30:13,440
as exhibit number 23.
1342
01:30:13,442 --> 01:30:15,041
Famous Exhibit 23.
1343
01:30:15,043 --> 01:30:16,476
Your Honor, I object.
1344
01:30:16,478 --> 01:30:17,978
Give it up, Mr. Collins.
1345
01:30:19,915 --> 01:30:22,115
-Do you recognize this document?
-I do.
1346
01:30:22,117 --> 01:30:24,584
Mr. Cohen,
what exactly is this?
1347
01:30:26,588 --> 01:30:30,457
-It's a...
a violent incident form.
-A violent incident form
1348
01:30:30,459 --> 01:30:32,793
And what does
the violent incident form show?
1349
01:30:33,929 --> 01:30:35,829
It shows that Joey Poule
1350
01:30:36,765 --> 01:30:37,964
raped his sister,
1351
01:30:39,001 --> 01:30:41,768
put a knife up to another boy
1352
01:30:44,540 --> 01:30:47,874
and sexually assaulted
another four-year-old child
1353
01:30:47,876 --> 01:30:50,677
while at a residential
treatment facility
1354
01:30:50,679 --> 01:30:53,146
just six months
before Pamela Dupree
1355
01:30:53,148 --> 01:30:55,515
placed him with the Randolphs.
1356
01:30:55,517 --> 01:30:59,119
Mr. Cohen, where is it
that you found this document?
1357
01:31:01,790 --> 01:31:04,691
I saw Ms. Dupree
throw it in the garbage...
1358
01:31:04,693 --> 01:31:06,593
[suspenseful music]
1359
01:31:06,595 --> 01:31:08,228
...and I took it out.
1360
01:31:09,064 --> 01:31:11,832
[Michael] That's true,
isn't it, Mrs. Dupree?
1361
01:31:11,834 --> 01:31:13,767
You threw it in the trash
1362
01:31:13,769 --> 01:31:16,470
because you knew that Joey Poule
1363
01:31:16,472 --> 01:31:18,605
had a history
of sexual violence.
1364
01:31:18,607 --> 01:31:21,141
-Isn't that true?
-[Collins] Objection,
Your Honor.
1365
01:31:21,143 --> 01:31:24,144
Ms. Dupree
is not on the witness stand.
1366
01:31:24,146 --> 01:31:26,046
[judge]
She's already under oath,
1367
01:31:26,048 --> 01:31:27,914
it doesn't matter
what chair she sits in.
1368
01:31:28,851 --> 01:31:30,717
Answer the question, Ms. Dupree.
1369
01:31:33,856 --> 01:31:37,524
Isn't it true that Bellcore
Family Services paid you bonuses
1370
01:31:39,495 --> 01:31:42,162
that you personally
received money
1371
01:31:42,164 --> 01:31:44,898
for each child you placed
in a foster home?
1372
01:31:44,900 --> 01:31:46,800
Isn't that true, Ms. Dupree?
1373
01:31:49,605 --> 01:31:54,040
All right, um,
on the advice of my counsel,
1374
01:31:54,042 --> 01:31:57,544
I am going to exercise
my Fifth Amendment right.
1375
01:31:59,748 --> 01:32:03,116
[Michael]
Your Honor, the plaintiff
would like to amend the request
1376
01:32:03,118 --> 01:32:04,885
and ask for punitive damages.
1377
01:32:04,887 --> 01:32:06,853
Your Honor,
the defense asserts
1378
01:32:06,855 --> 01:32:10,824
that punitive damages
are not called for in this case.
1379
01:32:10,826 --> 01:32:12,058
[judge] Mr. Trainer,
1380
01:32:13,762 --> 01:32:15,595
your motion is granted.
1381
01:32:17,299 --> 01:32:21,134
[music continues]
1382
01:32:36,652 --> 01:32:37,984
[Michael clears throat]
1383
01:32:42,624 --> 01:32:45,859
If it may please
the court, counsel,
1384
01:32:45,861 --> 01:32:47,661
members of the jury.
1385
01:32:59,741 --> 01:33:01,975
I didn't want this case.
1386
01:33:05,147 --> 01:33:07,981
I didn't want this case
because when I looked at Jamal,
1387
01:33:09,585 --> 01:33:10,684
I saw a thug,
1388
01:33:11,920 --> 01:33:14,654
a freeloader,
a tax on our system.
1389
01:33:16,191 --> 01:33:18,191
Sometimes when we meet people,
1390
01:33:19,027 --> 01:33:21,094
we don't see them
for who they truly are.
1391
01:33:22,664 --> 01:33:24,698
[dramatic music]
1392
01:33:24,700 --> 01:33:28,001
I'm sorry that
I did not see you, Jamal.
1393
01:33:32,608 --> 01:33:35,775
Over the course of this trial
I've gotten to know
Jamal Randolph,
1394
01:33:35,777 --> 01:33:39,079
the 19-year-old boy
who sits before you today.
1395
01:33:42,017 --> 01:33:44,718
But I ask you to go back
in time now, to see Jamal
1396
01:33:44,720 --> 01:33:49,089
as a 10-year-old boy
forced to live
in 12 different foster homes,
1397
01:33:49,958 --> 01:33:52,192
but, eventually,
he found the right home,
1398
01:33:52,194 --> 01:33:55,061
the home
of Shaina and Bill Randolph,
1399
01:33:55,063 --> 01:33:56,196
who later adopted him.
1400
01:33:57,866 --> 01:34:00,100
They also fostered Joey Poule.
1401
01:34:01,870 --> 01:34:04,671
Now what Jamal
and the Randolphs didn't know,
1402
01:34:04,673 --> 01:34:06,239
what they couldn't know
1403
01:34:08,176 --> 01:34:12,178
was that Joey Poule
had a severely violent past,
1404
01:34:17,019 --> 01:34:18,502
a history of rape.
1405
01:34:18,503 --> 01:34:19,986
The reason Jamal
and the Randolphs didn't know
1406
01:34:21,356 --> 01:34:24,891
was because Pamela Dupree
and Bellcore Family Services
1407
01:34:24,893 --> 01:34:26,993
tried to destroy those records.
1408
01:34:34,136 --> 01:34:38,038
I'm sorry that Bellcore
did this to you, Jamal,
1409
01:34:38,040 --> 01:34:41,274
and I can see now
why it's difficult
for you to trust anyone.
1410
01:34:42,744 --> 01:34:44,377
But I'm asking you to...
1411
01:34:44,379 --> 01:34:46,146
I'm begging you,
1412
01:34:47,449 --> 01:34:49,949
please put your trust
in this jury.
1413
01:34:50,919 --> 01:34:52,886
The same way that your mother
gave you hope
1414
01:34:52,888 --> 01:34:54,988
by wrapping
her loving arms around you,
1415
01:34:54,990 --> 01:34:57,090
this jury will give you hope
1416
01:34:58,894 --> 01:35:01,695
by wrapping the American
Constitution around you.
1417
01:35:04,833 --> 01:35:11,004
This is your opportunity
to give Jamal
and kids like him, hope.
1418
01:35:12,107 --> 01:35:14,774
Hope that what we do
in this courtroom and courtrooms
1419
01:35:14,776 --> 01:35:16,743
like this all across the country
1420
01:35:18,380 --> 01:35:20,914
will never let them down again.
1421
01:35:20,916 --> 01:35:22,782
[music continues]
1422
01:35:40,435 --> 01:35:41,968
[indistinct chatter]
1423
01:35:46,508 --> 01:35:49,743
I thought you'd be on a flight
back to Los Angeles.
1424
01:35:49,745 --> 01:35:51,911
When was the last time
I listened to you?
1425
01:35:53,048 --> 01:35:54,280
Good point.
1426
01:35:55,183 --> 01:35:56,916
[Jamal]
Some hot cocoa for you, bud.
1427
01:36:08,296 --> 01:36:09,996
[woman] Jury's back.
1428
01:36:09,998 --> 01:36:12,832
[suspenseful music]
1429
01:36:18,206 --> 01:36:19,539
[judge]
Have you reached a verdict?
1430
01:36:19,541 --> 01:36:21,307
We have, Your Honor.
1431
01:36:29,885 --> 01:36:33,820
In the manner of Jamal Randolph
versus Bellcore Family Services,
1432
01:36:35,023 --> 01:36:37,123
we the jury,
find the defendants,
1433
01:36:39,094 --> 01:36:43,429
guilty
of deliberate indifference
to the rights of Jamal Randolph
1434
01:36:44,266 --> 01:36:46,499
and we assess damages
1435
01:36:49,171 --> 01:36:51,871
of thirty-two million,
six hundred
1436
01:36:51,873 --> 01:36:54,040
-and fifty thousand dollars.
-[indistinct chatter]
1437
01:36:57,412 --> 01:37:00,847
[judge] Matter is concluded,
court is adjourned,
1438
01:37:00,849 --> 01:37:03,249
jury is dismissed.

Ms. Dupree, Ms. Dupree,
Agent Stockton with the FBI.
1441
01:37:33,481 --> 01:37:35,248
We received
some information this morning.
1442
01:37:35,250 --> 01:37:36,482
We have some questions for you.
1443
01:37:37,986 --> 01:37:41,888
No, uh, I...
1444
01:37:47,562 --> 01:37:49,395
[phone ringing]
1445
01:37:55,136 --> 01:37:56,135
Yeah.
1446
01:37:59,274 --> 01:38:01,040
[sighs] How much?
1447
01:38:03,078 --> 01:38:05,645
No. We'll wait a month,
1448
01:38:05,647 --> 01:38:08,948
it'll die down
then we'll go public.
1449
01:38:10,619 --> 01:38:11,651
Yeah.
1450
01:38:14,356 --> 01:38:15,889

1451
01:38:20,462 --> 01:38:22,362
[dramatic music]
1452
01:38:22,364 --> 01:38:23,897
[Jamal] Hey, Mr. Trainer.
1453
01:38:26,368 --> 01:38:27,667
What you said in there...
1454
01:38:30,138 --> 01:38:33,273
sometimes when you meet
a person you don't really see
them for who they are.
1455
01:38:35,076 --> 01:38:36,175
It's true.
1456
01:38:39,014 --> 01:38:40,246
Thanks for everything.
1457
01:38:43,151 --> 01:38:44,350
Three-piece.
1458

1459
01:38:50,025 --> 01:38:51,457
