My name's
Detective Joe Kaminsky.

37
00:02:30,585 --> 00:02:32,630
Well, we just want you
to come down to the station,
38
00:02:32,674 --> 00:02:36,025
Mr. Craddick,
just to answer some questions.
39
00:02:36,808 --> 00:02:38,201
You have my word,
40
00:02:38,245 --> 00:02:39,594
no big deal.
41
00:02:39,637 --> 00:02:41,117

it's, um...
49
00:02:57,089 --> 00:02:59,353

I'll be back

Would you do me a favor,
Mrs. Pierce?

Uh, your attorney said
you wanted to see me.

-Yeah.

I'm a psychologist.
70
00:03:57,759 --> 00:04:00,065
I'm here to try and get the jury
to understand
71
00:04:00,109 --> 00:04:03,504
eyewitness testimony isn't
all it's cracked up to be.
72
00:04:03,547 --> 00:04:05,680
He told you I didn't do it,
right?
73
00:04:05,723 --> 00:04:08,117
I didn't kill that man
and his baby.
74
00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:10,685
Honestly,
it didn't really come up.
75
00:04:10,728 --> 00:04:13,078
I'm here to tell the jury
76
00:04:13,122 --> 00:04:15,080
about eyewitness testimony,
not you.
77
00:04:15,124 --> 00:04:18,214
Okay, I get what you're doing,
but I need you to know...
78
00:04:18,258 --> 00:04:20,303
I'd never kill anybody.
79
00:04:20,347 --> 00:04:22,174
I have a ten-year-old son.
80
00:04:22,218 --> 00:04:24,220
His mom died
when he was a toddler.
81
00:04:24,264 --> 00:04:25,917
I'm all he's got.
82
00:04:25,961 --> 00:04:27,223
Sure.
83
00:04:27,267 --> 00:04:29,356
What can I do for you,
Mr. Craddick?
84
00:04:29,399 --> 00:04:31,793
You can tell me
I'm gonna go home to my boy.
85
00:04:31,836 --> 00:04:33,925
Look, I'm not a lawyer,
86
00:04:33,969 --> 00:04:35,275
but from what I can tell,
87
00:04:35,318 --> 00:04:36,493
they don't really have
much of a case.
88
00:04:36,537 --> 00:04:38,234
It's mostly
circumstantial evidence.
89
00:04:38,278 --> 00:04:39,540
What they're gonna do
is tell a story
90
00:04:39,583 --> 00:04:41,150
about how you're
some kind of vigilante
91
00:04:41,193 --> 00:04:44,240
who took matters
into his own hands.
92
00:04:44,284 --> 00:04:45,850
But there's nothing
in your background
93
00:04:45,894 --> 00:04:47,678
that substantiates that idea.
94
00:04:47,722 --> 00:04:50,812
So all they really have is
this one supposed eyewitness,
95
00:04:50,855 --> 00:04:52,335
whose testimony...
96
00:04:52,379 --> 00:04:54,337
really isn't very strong at all.
97
00:04:54,381 --> 00:04:56,078
So you think...
98
00:04:56,121 --> 00:04:57,993
this might go my way?
99
00:04:58,036 --> 00:04:59,386
Mr. Craddick,
I believe
100
00:04:59,429 --> 00:05:01,344
that if your attorney picked
a decent jury,
101
00:05:01,388 --> 00:05:02,911
a jury of your peers,
102
00:05:02,954 --> 00:05:05,609
then yeah.
103
00:05:05,653 --> 00:05:08,743
KAMINSKY:
We got a 911 call.
A neighbor said
104
00:05:08,786 --> 00:05:10,832
he was home asleep when two
gunshots outside woke him up.
105
00:05:10,875 --> 00:05:13,530
[sighs]
From his
third-floor window
106
00:05:13,574 --> 00:05:15,097
he saw a male figure--
the shooter--
107
00:05:15,140 --> 00:05:17,534
running away from a dead body
lying on the sidewalk.
108
00:05:17,578 --> 00:05:19,754
You should object.
That's hearsay.
109
00:05:19,797 --> 00:05:21,756
Please. Leave the
lawyering to me.
110
00:05:21,799 --> 00:05:23,540
GLOVER:
And what happened next,
Detective?
111
00:05:23,584 --> 00:05:25,194
The neighbor came
into the precinct
112
00:05:25,237 --> 00:05:26,935
to give
a more detailed statement.
113
00:05:26,978 --> 00:05:28,893
At that time,
I also laid out six photos
114
00:05:28,937 --> 00:05:31,505
of possible suspects
for him to review.
115
00:05:31,548 --> 00:05:34,159
He identified the shooter
immediately.
116
00:05:34,203 --> 00:05:35,944
Did it with great certainty.
117
00:05:35,987 --> 00:05:38,903
GLOVER:
And the person
the neighbor identified,
118
00:05:38,947 --> 00:05:41,863
do you see that person
in the courtroom today?
119
00:05:41,906 --> 00:05:43,952
I certainly do.
120
00:05:43,995 --> 00:05:46,215
The defendant Arthur Craddick.
121
00:05:47,347 --> 00:05:49,523
GLOVER:
Thank you.
122
00:05:53,744 --> 00:05:55,877
BULL: Eyewitness testimony is actually
123
00:05:55,920 --> 00:05:58,314
the oldest category
of trial evidence there is.
124
00:05:58,358 --> 00:06:00,403
Ironically,
when we look at the data,
125
00:06:00,447 --> 00:06:03,188
it's also
the most flawed category
126
00:06:03,232 --> 00:06:05,713
of trial evidence there is.
127
00:06:05,756 --> 00:06:08,629
It has the highest probability
for error.
128
00:06:08,672 --> 00:06:09,847
Error? Huh.
129
00:06:09,891 --> 00:06:12,372
Okay, so what would cause
a witness to make
130
00:06:12,415 --> 00:06:14,504
a false identification?
131
00:06:14,548 --> 00:06:16,288
Well, let's look
at the identification
132
00:06:16,332 --> 00:06:18,160
at the center of this case.
133
00:06:18,203 --> 00:06:20,467
The witness was
three stories up,
134
00:06:20,510 --> 00:06:23,557
seeing whatever he saw
in the dark of night.
135
00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:26,342
He was roused from sleep.
136
00:06:26,386 --> 00:06:27,996
Clearly not a recipe
for precision.
137
00:06:28,039 --> 00:06:31,521
And then he gets taken
down to the station house,
138
00:06:31,565 --> 00:06:33,610
and they lay six photographs
in front of him.
139
00:06:33,654 --> 00:06:35,612
Six photos all at once.
140
00:06:35,656 --> 00:06:37,092
And what's wrong with that?
141
00:06:37,135 --> 00:06:38,615
Research studies have taught us
142
00:06:38,659 --> 00:06:41,313
that when we present witnesses
with a group of choices,
143
00:06:41,357 --> 00:06:43,185
they feel tremendous pressure
to pick one.
144
00:06:43,228 --> 00:06:45,579
Whether they actually see
the person they're
looking for or not,
145
00:06:45,622 --> 00:06:47,189
they feel like
they're not doing
146
00:06:47,232 --> 00:06:48,930
their job unless they pick one.
147
00:06:48,973 --> 00:06:52,455
The better practice is
to present photos one at a time,
148
00:06:52,499 --> 00:06:55,240
and that way the witness
can consider each individually,
149
00:06:55,284 --> 00:06:56,894
thoughtfully,
150
00:06:56,938 --> 00:07:01,246
and they can eliminate or
identify candidates as they go.
151
00:07:01,290 --> 00:07:02,900
Then there's familiarity.
152
00:07:02,944 --> 00:07:05,512
And the eyewitness
and Mr. Craddick were neighbors.
153
00:07:05,555 --> 00:07:07,905
They apparently
didn't know each other, but...
154
00:07:07,949 --> 00:07:10,212
we are reasonably sure
that they saw each other
155
00:07:10,255 --> 00:07:13,476
around the neighborhood--
at the park, on the street.
156
00:07:13,520 --> 00:07:16,827
And the point is, the pull
of familiarity can be
157
00:07:16,871 --> 00:07:18,002
incredibly powerful.
158
00:07:18,046 --> 00:07:20,222
I mean,
it's a force that inclines us
159
00:07:20,265 --> 00:07:22,354
to select the face
we've seen before
160
00:07:22,398 --> 00:07:25,270
over the one
that's completely new to us.
161
00:07:25,314 --> 00:07:28,491
So, in your expert opinion,
Dr. Bull,
162
00:07:28,535 --> 00:07:31,842
can this eyewitness account
be trusted?
163
00:07:34,105 --> 00:07:35,585
In my expert opinion, no.
164
00:07:35,629 --> 00:07:38,501
You don't send a man to prison
for the rest of his life
165
00:07:38,545 --> 00:07:40,677
based on the word
of one lone witness
166
00:07:40,721 --> 00:07:42,897
whose testimony,
no matter how well-meaning,
167
00:07:42,940 --> 00:07:48,293
has a far greater probability
of being wrong than right.
168
00:07:48,337 --> 00:07:50,774
[gavel bangs]
169
00:07:56,737 --> 00:07:59,914
We, the jury, find the
defendant Arthur Craddick...
170
00:08:02,569 --> 00:08:05,615
...guilty
of two counts of murder.
171
00:08:07,095 --> 00:08:08,836
No.

Thank you, jury,
for your civic service today.

I didn't do it.
I had nothing to do with it.

00:08:27,898 --> 00:08:30,771
I didn't kill your son,

00:15:49,078 --> 00:15:52,821
Any way my people could
meet this fella?
357
00:15:52,864 --> 00:15:55,606
So the confession is
from a contract killer?
358
00:15:55,650 --> 00:15:57,130
A mob hit man?
359
00:15:57,173 --> 00:15:59,784
Yep. Turns out everybody
had it wrong.
360
00:15:59,828 --> 00:16:01,961
They all figured it to be
one of the business owners
361
00:16:02,004 --> 00:16:04,224
that killed Ivan to put
a stop to the shakedowns.
362
00:16:04,267 --> 00:16:06,226
Turns out it was
about territory.
363
00:16:06,269 --> 00:16:08,358
The mob wanted a piece
of Ivan's action,
364
00:16:08,402 --> 00:16:10,665
and Ivan wasn't
down with that.
365
00:16:10,708 --> 00:16:11,840
So they killed him.
366
00:16:11,883 --> 00:16:13,233
Sure did.
367
00:16:13,276 --> 00:16:14,799
And his baby.
368
00:16:14,843 --> 00:16:16,932
And exactly why is this
contract killer confessing?
369
00:16:16,976 --> 00:16:20,109
I mean, according to this file,
he's only 42 years old.
370
00:16:20,153 --> 00:16:21,502
Doesn't he get
that he'll probably
371
00:16:21,545 --> 00:16:23,243
spend the rest
of his life in prison?
372
00:16:23,286 --> 00:16:24,984
Did I not mention
373
00:16:25,027 --> 00:16:27,029
he's dying?
374
00:16:27,073 --> 00:16:30,424
KIRIL:
47 men.
375
00:16:30,467 --> 00:16:32,513
47...
376
00:16:33,470 --> 00:16:36,430
But Ivan was easy to track.
377
00:16:36,473 --> 00:16:38,519
Careless.
378
00:16:40,912 --> 00:16:43,828
Bravado with no brains.
379
00:16:43,872 --> 00:16:46,788
I remember thinking...
380
00:16:46,831 --> 00:16:49,399
that killing Ivan Kovolchuk
381
00:16:49,443 --> 00:16:52,794
would be the easiest $25,000
382
00:16:52,837 --> 00:16:54,317
I would ever make.
383
00:16:54,361 --> 00:16:57,059
So let's talk
about the murders.
384
00:16:57,103 --> 00:16:59,148
No. Not murders.
385
00:16:59,192 --> 00:17:00,976
Murder.
386
00:17:01,020 --> 00:17:03,370
One-- Ivan.
387
00:17:03,413 --> 00:17:07,026
The baby girl wasn't...
388
00:17:07,069 --> 00:17:09,289
I didn't know she was there.
389
00:17:09,332 --> 00:17:12,553
She was an accident.
390
00:17:13,641 --> 00:17:15,034
A mistake.
391
00:17:15,077 --> 00:17:17,210
I don't deny
392
00:17:17,253 --> 00:17:19,777
pulling the trigger, but...
393
00:17:21,388 --> 00:17:25,174
...there is no greater
insult to God
394
00:17:25,218 --> 00:17:28,221
than to kill one of his babies.
395
00:17:28,264 --> 00:17:31,528
No matter how much I try
396
00:17:31,572 --> 00:17:35,576
to atone
for that child's death...
397
00:17:35,619 --> 00:17:38,187
God always
398
00:17:38,231 --> 00:17:40,972
gets the last word.
399
00:17:41,016 --> 00:17:43,758
Myeloma.
400
00:17:45,107 --> 00:17:47,762
Blood cancer.
401
00:17:57,728 --> 00:17:58,816
Mr. Colón?
402
00:17:58,860 --> 00:18:00,122
Any idea when
403
00:18:00,166 --> 00:18:02,037
your witness plans
on making an appearance?
404
00:18:02,081 --> 00:18:04,344
We've been sitting here
for half an hour.
405
00:18:04,387 --> 00:18:06,215
[clears throat]
406
00:18:06,259 --> 00:18:08,565
Uh, yes, yes, of course,
Your Honor.
407
00:18:08,609 --> 00:18:11,394
Well, we are doing
everything we can
408
00:18:11,438 --> 00:18:12,526
to locate him.
409
00:18:12,569 --> 00:18:14,397
I do apologize
410
00:18:14,441 --> 00:18:16,138
for the delay.
411
00:18:19,185 --> 00:18:21,752
[clears throat]
412
00:18:21,796 --> 00:18:23,406
I don't understand.
413
00:18:23,450 --> 00:18:24,929
You said you hired
414
00:18:24,973 --> 00:18:26,105
an ambulance to bring him here.[phone buzzing]
415
00:18:26,148 --> 00:18:28,107
How do you lose
an ambulance?
416
00:18:31,153 --> 00:18:32,937
[whispering]:
Danny, where the hell are you?
417
00:18:32,981 --> 00:18:35,375
I've been waiting ...NNY: He's dead, Bull.
418
00:18:35,418 --> 00:18:37,159
We were going through
the Midtown Tunnel and he just
419
00:18:37,203 --> 00:18:39,640
started gasping
for breath and...
420
00:18:39,683 --> 00:18:41,381
then he just died.
421
00:18:41,424 --> 00:18:43,687
Even with rush hour traffic
with the siren on,
422
00:18:43,731 --> 00:18:45,254
we couldn't get
out of the tunnel.
423
00:18:45,298 --> 00:18:47,648
I-I couldn't get
cell service and...
424
00:18:47,691 --> 00:18:50,825
We need to talk
to the judge.
425
00:18:51,608 --> 00:18:54,437
I don't deny
pulling the trigger,
426
00:18:54,481 --> 00:18:57,701
but... there is no greater
427
00:18:57,745 --> 00:18:59,834
insult to God than to kill
428
00:18:59,877 --> 00:19:01,923
one of his babies.
429
00:19:01,966 --> 00:19:04,621
No matter how much I try
430
00:19:04,665 --> 00:19:07,450
to atone for that child's
431
00:19:07,494 --> 00:19:08,930
death...
432
00:19:08,973 --> 00:19:12,151
God always gets
433
00:19:12,194 --> 00:19:14,631
the last word.
434
00:19:14,675 --> 00:19:17,721
Myeloma.
435
00:19:17,765 --> 00:19:20,637
Blood cancer.
436
00:19:20,681 --> 00:19:23,858
Ms. Glover, I'll hear you next.
437
00:19:25,512 --> 00:19:27,253
Thank you.
438
00:19:27,296 --> 00:19:29,516
Your Honor, the
People urge you
439
00:19:29,559 --> 00:19:32,345
to deny this motion on the
grounds that this new evidence
440
00:19:32,388 --> 00:19:35,565
is-- despite what Mr.
Craddick's attorneys may say--
441
00:19:35,609 --> 00:19:37,480
rank hearsay.
442
00:19:37,524 --> 00:19:39,482
We were not given the
opportunity to be present
443
00:19:39,526 --> 00:19:42,006
when the declarant gave
his so-called confession.
444
00:19:42,050 --> 00:19:44,400
And consequently
we were not able
445
00:19:44,444 --> 00:19:46,141
to cross-examine him.
446
00:19:46,185 --> 00:19:49,188
Your Honor... [scoffs]
no one wishes that Mr. Sidorenko
447
00:19:49,231 --> 00:19:52,495
was alive and here today
more than we do.
448
00:19:52,539 --> 00:19:56,151
These are obviously
extenuating circumstances.
449
00:19:56,195 --> 00:19:57,892
I...
450
00:19:59,023 --> 00:20:01,243
Even setting that aside,
451
00:20:01,287 --> 00:20:05,378
this alleged new evidence
is less a dying declaration
452
00:20:05,421 --> 00:20:07,293
and more
like a deathbed fairy tale,
453
00:20:07,336 --> 00:20:10,339
replete with melodrama
and a third act reversal.
454
00:20:10,383 --> 00:20:13,342
We're expected to take
the word of a criminal?
455
00:20:13,386 --> 00:20:16,432
An accomplished liar?
A professional killer?
456
00:20:16,476 --> 00:20:19,522
This man was paid to murder
people-- he could just
457
00:20:19,566 --> 00:20:21,394
as easily have been paid
to lie on that video.
458
00:20:21,437 --> 00:20:23,222
And given his illness,
459
00:20:23,265 --> 00:20:25,354
Mr. Sidorenko had
nothing to lose.
460
00:20:25,398 --> 00:20:27,400
For that reason alone,
461
00:20:27,443 --> 00:20:28,923
we beseech Your Honor
462
00:20:28,966 --> 00:20:30,968
to dismiss this motion
for a new trial.
463
00:20:31,012 --> 00:20:33,580
There is no new evidence here.
464
00:20:33,623 --> 00:20:35,712
Just new distractions.
465
00:20:35,756 --> 00:20:38,541
New... distortions.
466
00:20:38,585 --> 00:20:40,064
Thank you, Counselor.
467
00:20:40,108 --> 00:20:42,719
The court would like
to take a brief recess
468
00:20:42,763 --> 00:20:46,070
to consider both the legal
briefs and this new evidence.
469
00:20:46,114 --> 00:20:49,204
Let's reconvene in 30 minutes.
470
00:20:49,248 --> 00:20:51,859
-Call it.
-Can't. We made
a compelling argument,
471
00:20:51,902 --> 00:20:53,382
but so did the A.D.A.
472
00:20:53,426 --> 00:20:55,384
I hear you. I wish I had
a better sense of the judge.
473
00:20:55,428 --> 00:20:56,516
You guys are crazy.
474
00:20:56,559 --> 00:20:58,126
It's done. It's over.
475
00:20:58,169 --> 00:20:59,954
My father is coming home.
476
00:20:59,997 --> 00:21:02,130
People know the truth
when they hear it.
477
00:21:02,173 --> 00:21:04,611
Did you see the look
on the face of his widow?
478
00:21:04,654 --> 00:21:06,003
On his mother?
479
00:21:06,047 --> 00:21:07,657
Leo, they're not the ones
480
00:21:07,701 --> 00:21:09,093
deciding whether
we get a new trial.
481
00:21:09,137 --> 00:21:11,270
[elevator bell dings]
482
00:21:13,924 --> 00:21:17,450
LEO:
Hey, Detective Kaminsky.
483
00:21:19,713 --> 00:21:22,193
I'm sorry.
One of you call my name?
484
00:21:22,237 --> 00:21:24,544
I did. My name's Leo Craddick.
485
00:21:24,587 --> 00:21:25,675
No. Leo...
486
00:21:25,719 --> 00:21:27,111
I'm Arthur Craddick's son.
487
00:21:27,155 --> 00:21:29,200
The little boy
whose father you locked up
488
00:21:29,244 --> 00:21:30,680
for something he didn't do?
489
00:21:30,724 --> 00:21:32,160
Today's the day, Kaminsky.
490
00:21:32,203 --> 00:21:34,293
There's gonna be
a reckoning.
491
00:21:34,336 --> 00:21:36,338
-A reckoning?
-You heard me.
492
00:21:36,382 --> 00:21:38,993
Cops who put innocent people
behind bars need
493
00:21:39,036 --> 00:21:41,430
to face consequences--
professional consequences,
494
00:21:41,474 --> 00:21:44,390
financial consequences,
legal consequences--
495
00:21:44,433 --> 00:21:45,695
and you're going to.
496
00:21:45,739 --> 00:21:47,262
You gentlemen heard that, right?
497
00:21:47,306 --> 00:21:51,484
This young man
just threatened me.
498
00:21:51,527 --> 00:21:52,659
The judge is back.
499
00:21:52,702 --> 00:21:55,096
Judge is back.
500
00:21:55,139 --> 00:21:57,968
Nice to see you again, Leo.
501
00:22:00,319 --> 00:22:01,798
[whispering]:
What the hell was that?
502
00:22:01,842 --> 00:22:04,061
Uh ...at cannot
happen again.
503
00:22:05,019 --> 00:22:07,369
CONWAY:
A.D.A. Glover, Mr. Colón,
504
00:22:07,413 --> 00:22:10,459
I've read your briefs
and heard the arguments.
505
00:22:10,503 --> 00:22:13,941
[quietly]:
-Hey.
-On reflection, I find
506
00:22:13,984 --> 00:22:15,899
Mr. Sidorenko's statement
highly troubling.
507
00:22:15,943 --> 00:22:20,077
Frankly, it begs many
more questions than it answers.
508
00:22:20,121 --> 00:22:22,515
But given the People's
lack of access
509
00:22:22,558 --> 00:22:24,212
to the witness
when he was available,
510
00:22:24,255 --> 00:22:26,083
I find the evidence falls short
511
00:22:26,127 --> 00:22:29,173
of meeting the court's
definition of "substantial."
512
00:22:29,217 --> 00:22:30,610
And so, the motion
513
00:22:30,653 --> 00:22:33,090
for a new trial is denied
without prejudice.
514
00:22:33,134 --> 00:22:35,092
If any more evidence
515
00:22:35,136 --> 00:22:37,573
comes to light,
you can file a new motion.
516
00:22:41,403 --> 00:22:43,884
Move for a sentence review.
Argue substantial assistance.
517
00:22:43,927 --> 00:22:45,233
Do it now.
518
00:22:45,276 --> 00:22:48,410
[clears throat]
Uh, Your Honor, I ask
519
00:22:48,454 --> 00:22:50,673
that the court please
consider a reduction
520
00:22:50,717 --> 00:22:52,501
of Mr. Craddick's sentence.
521
00:22:52,545 --> 00:22:54,503
On what grounds?
522
00:22:54,547 --> 00:22:57,550
Well, Mr. Sidorenko's sworn
testimony details other murders
523
00:22:57,593 --> 00:23:00,422
he committed, murders never
solved by the police.
524
00:23:00,466 --> 00:23:04,339
By tracking down Mr. Sidorenko,
Mr. Craddick has, in effect,
525
00:23:04,383 --> 00:23:06,515
offered substantial assistance
to law enforcement.
526
00:23:06,559 --> 00:23:08,212
And as I'm sure
you're aware,
527
00:23:08,256 --> 00:23:11,302
that qualifies him
for a reduced sentence.
528
00:23:11,346 --> 00:23:14,131
Your Honor,
the People strenuously object.
529
00:23:14,175 --> 00:23:16,351
This is obviously a cheap ploy
530
00:23:16,395 --> 00:23:18,092
by Mr. Craddick's
lawyers. Just...
531
00:23:21,965 --> 00:23:25,447
The motion for a new trial
was actually a very close call.
532
00:23:25,491 --> 00:23:28,885
So I will allow your motion,
Mr. Colón,
533
00:23:28,929 --> 00:23:32,019
and reduce Mr. Craddick's
sentence from 25 years to life,
534
00:23:32,062 --> 00:23:35,414
down to 18 years to 25 years.
535
00:23:35,457 --> 00:23:38,591
Ladies and gentlemen,
this court is adjourned.
536
00:23:40,462 --> 00:23:41,898
[Benny chuckles]
BULL:
All right.
537
00:23:41,942 --> 00:23:43,900
Why does everyone look
so happy?
538
00:23:43,944 --> 00:23:45,772
Pops is still
locked up for years.
539
00:23:45,815 --> 00:23:48,209
Actually, if I remember
my penal code correctly,
540
00:23:48,252 --> 00:23:50,298
18 to 25 means I...
541
00:23:50,341 --> 00:23:54,041
Could be immediately released
from prison on parole.
542
00:23:54,084 --> 00:23:55,869
[laughs softly]
543
00:24:00,003 --> 00:24:01,265
Back in my law
clinic days,
544
00:24:01,309 --> 00:24:03,137
I helped some inmates
prep for parole.
545
00:24:03,180 --> 00:24:04,747
Saw the system
from the inside.
546
00:24:04,791 --> 00:24:06,009
It's not pretty.
547
00:24:06,053 --> 00:24:07,446
-How do you mean?
-Well,
548
00:24:07,489 --> 00:24:12,059
the decisions tend to be
really random, inconsistent.
549
00:24:12,102 --> 00:24:15,541
And from what I saw, a Black
inmate is twice as likely
550
00:24:15,584 --> 00:24:17,543
as a white one to
be denied parole,
551
00:24:17,586 --> 00:24:19,675
and that's for the
exact same crime.
552
00:24:20,937 --> 00:24:23,418
Uh, any more good news?
553
00:24:23,462 --> 00:24:25,594
Well, for starters,
554
00:24:25,638 --> 00:24:29,076
everything that we're doing
here is completely irrelevant.
555
00:24:29,119 --> 00:24:32,688
There's no voir dire, there's
no cross-examining anyone,
556
00:24:32,732 --> 00:24:34,473
there's no rebuttal
of witnesses.
557
00:24:34,516 --> 00:24:37,127
Parole decisions are not
subject to due process,
558
00:24:37,171 --> 00:24:39,521
which means the inmates
can't even appeal.
559
00:24:39,565 --> 00:24:42,611
Look, I'm sorry,
but I'm worried
560
00:24:42,655 --> 00:24:46,310
that we're bringing trial
science to a knife fight.
561
00:24:47,094 --> 00:24:48,922
Should we talk about the
three parole commissioners
562
00:24:48,965 --> 00:24:50,445
Bull, Benny and Arthur
will be facing?
563
00:24:50,489 --> 00:24:53,535
I got these names
from the prison administrator
564
00:24:53,579 --> 00:24:55,145
about an hour ago.
565
00:24:55,189 --> 00:24:57,757
You are looking
at a former prosecutor,
566
00:24:57,800 --> 00:25:02,501
a retired family court judge,
and a retired police captain.
567
00:25:02,544 --> 00:25:04,546
Oh, my people. [laughs]
568
00:25:04,590 --> 00:25:05,895
N-No.
569
00:25:07,549 --> 00:25:10,509
How in the hell is Arthur gonna
get two of these three folks
570
00:25:10,552 --> 00:25:11,771
to be on his side?
571
00:25:11,814 --> 00:25:13,773
Come on.
It is not as bad as all that.
572
00:25:13,816 --> 00:25:16,558
Arthur has a clean
disciplinary record,
573
00:25:16,602 --> 00:25:19,822
a near-perfect score
on the recidivism risk exam,
574
00:25:19,866 --> 00:25:22,303
and an impressive parole plan.
575
00:25:22,346 --> 00:25:25,045
Marissa, we're talking
about a Black man
576
00:25:25,088 --> 00:25:28,135
who has already been found
guilty of a double murder.
577
00:25:28,178 --> 00:25:30,746
The chance of these three
telling him
578
00:25:30,790 --> 00:25:32,052
he can go home early?
579
00:25:32,095 --> 00:25:34,358
I'm thinking slim to none.
580
00:25:36,012 --> 00:25:37,623
You ever been
to one of these?
581
00:25:37,666 --> 00:25:38,798
-A parole hearing?
-Mm.
582
00:25:38,841 --> 00:25:40,495
Yup, I've testified.
583
00:25:40,539 --> 00:25:42,323
But only as
a prosecutor.
584
00:25:42,366 --> 00:25:44,934
And I was in and out.
Said my piece, and I left.
585
00:25:44,978 --> 00:25:46,414
Oh, I've been doing
a lot of research,
586
00:25:46,457 --> 00:25:47,589
talking to a lot of people.
587
00:25:47,633 --> 00:25:49,417
-It's a weird beast.
-How do you mean?
588
00:25:49,460 --> 00:25:51,027
There's this unspoken rule.
589
00:25:51,071 --> 00:25:53,334
Turns out parole
is premised on guilt
590
00:25:53,377 --> 00:25:55,815
and contingent
on expressing remorse.
591
00:25:55,858 --> 00:25:57,468
I'm not following.
592
00:25:57,512 --> 00:25:59,601
Well, the trap a lot
of inmates fall into is
593
00:25:59,645 --> 00:26:00,994
they try
to relitigate their crime.
594
00:26:01,037 --> 00:26:03,039
They deny that they did it,
and apparently
595
00:26:03,083 --> 00:26:04,519
the second
the commissioners hear that,
596
00:26:04,563 --> 00:26:07,391
they instantly deny
the petitioner parole.
597
00:26:07,435 --> 00:26:08,654
So wait a second.
598
00:26:08,697 --> 00:26:10,307
So, when Arthur gets up there
to speak,
599
00:26:10,351 --> 00:26:12,614
what's he supposed to say--
"I did it"?
600
00:26:12,658 --> 00:26:14,007
Well, based on what I'm hearing,
601
00:26:14,050 --> 00:26:16,009
these commissioners
are expecting an apology
602
00:26:16,052 --> 00:26:17,663
for a crime
our client didn't commit.
603
00:26:17,706 --> 00:26:19,055
So what do we do?
604
00:26:19,099 --> 00:26:21,318
Advise him to lie
so he can get out of prison,
605
00:26:21,362 --> 00:26:24,583
or tell the truth
and kill his chances for parole?
606
00:26:24,626 --> 00:26:26,106
Neither. I think what we have
607
00:26:26,149 --> 00:26:28,369
to do is construct
a permission structure.
608
00:26:28,412 --> 00:26:29,588
A what?
609
00:26:29,631 --> 00:26:30,676
[lock buzzes, latch clicks]
610
00:26:30,719 --> 00:26:31,981
Permission structure.
611
00:26:32,025 --> 00:26:33,548
It's a way of giving
people permission
612
00:26:33,592 --> 00:26:34,854
to embrace a
decision that,
613
00:26:34,897 --> 00:26:36,420
on its face, seems
counterintuitive.
614
00:26:36,464 --> 00:26:39,119
A decision that they think
they came to on their own,
615
00:26:39,162 --> 00:26:41,643
even though we placed the
seeds to make it possible.
616
00:26:41,687 --> 00:26:43,079
[lock buzzes]
617
00:26:45,429 --> 00:26:46,953
Good afternoon.
618
00:26:46,996 --> 00:26:50,217
My name is Leo Craddick,
and I'm Arthur Craddick's son.
619
00:26:50,260 --> 00:26:54,264
Before my father was arrested,
I played baseball as a kid,
620
00:26:54,308 --> 00:26:56,963
and my dad was
my Little League coach.
621
00:26:57,006 --> 00:26:59,226
Before every game,
he'd gather us
622
00:26:59,269 --> 00:27:03,186
around and say
"Swing hard, boys, swing hard."
623
00:27:03,230 --> 00:27:06,233
That's what he's done
behind bars.
624
00:27:06,276 --> 00:27:08,235
Never stopped
being a parent,
625
00:27:08,278 --> 00:27:11,020
-never stopped loving me.
-Do you see
Kovolchuk's widow here?
626
00:27:11,064 --> 00:27:13,544
12 years of prison is enough
to break most anyone's soul.
627
00:27:13,588 --> 00:27:14,894
No.
628
00:27:14,937 --> 00:27:16,635
But my father's never broke.
629
00:27:16,678 --> 00:27:18,811
He taught himself the law.
630
00:27:18,854 --> 00:27:21,509
He made it his business
to finish college.
631
00:27:21,552 --> 00:27:23,206
And upon his release,
632
00:27:23,250 --> 00:27:26,993
he plans to attend night classes
at Hudson University Law School
633
00:27:27,036 --> 00:27:29,604
while working part-time
as a warehouse clerk.
634
00:27:29,648 --> 00:27:32,781
I've asked him to come live with
me, become part of my household.
635
00:27:32,825 --> 00:27:37,743
Maybe even make up for some
of the 12 years that we've lost.
636
00:27:37,786 --> 00:27:39,658
I hope you'll agree
that our parole plan includes
637
00:27:39,701 --> 00:27:43,052
every necessary element
for a successful transition.
638
00:27:43,096 --> 00:27:45,359
Work, family, ambition.
639
00:27:45,402 --> 00:27:48,971
I'm taking it on faith
that you're sitting there
640
00:27:49,015 --> 00:27:50,190
because you believe
in the power
641
00:27:50,233 --> 00:27:51,713
of second chances.
642
00:27:51,757 --> 00:27:54,498
That you believe in the power
of redemption.
643
00:27:54,542 --> 00:27:56,370
That you believe
that a man's ability
644
00:27:56,413 --> 00:27:58,851
to make a contribution
to society lasts
645
00:27:58,894 --> 00:28:01,157
as long as he draws breath.
646
00:28:01,897 --> 00:28:04,465
My father's ready.
647
00:28:04,508 --> 00:28:09,339
Please extend this opportunity
to him.
648
00:28:09,383 --> 00:28:11,341
You will not regret it.
649
00:28:11,385 --> 00:28:14,605
Society will not regret it.
650
00:28:16,782 --> 00:28:19,175
Thank you for your time.
651
00:28:20,960 --> 00:28:22,788
Thank you, Mr. Craddick.
652
00:28:34,843 --> 00:28:38,978
[Karine sniffles]
653
00:28:39,021 --> 00:28:40,980
[clears throat]
654
00:28:41,023 --> 00:28:45,375
Ivan was a happy little boy
655
00:28:45,419 --> 00:28:49,902
who maybe went wild
as a teenager.
656
00:28:49,945 --> 00:28:52,905
Did bad things, yes.
657
00:28:52,948 --> 00:28:54,907
But was a wonderful father.
658
00:28:54,950 --> 00:28:57,474
His little girl Galina,
659
00:28:57,518 --> 00:29:01,348
my Galishka, should have turned
13 this month.
660
00:29:01,391 --> 00:29:04,438
Eighth grade.
Sleepovers, school dances.
661
00:29:04,481 --> 00:29:08,790
All of it destroyed...
662
00:29:08,834 --> 00:29:10,313
by Arthur Craddick.
663
00:29:10,357 --> 00:29:13,229
He took my son.
664
00:29:13,273 --> 00:29:15,536
He took my granddaughter.
665
00:29:15,579 --> 00:29:18,191
The dead don't get a voice.
666
00:29:18,234 --> 00:29:21,237
So it's for them
that I beg you.
667
00:29:21,281 --> 00:29:26,242
Do not release the man who
assassinated Ivan and Galina.
668
00:29:42,824 --> 00:29:44,130
[crying quietly]
669
00:29:44,173 --> 00:29:45,871
BULL:
Marissa?
670
00:29:45,914 --> 00:29:48,308
Listen, do me a favor.
671
00:29:48,351 --> 00:29:51,485
Ivan's wife,
the little girl's mother--
672
00:29:51,528 --> 00:29:55,489
Zasha Kovolchuk--
she didn't show up today.
673
00:29:55,532 --> 00:29:58,448
That's odd. She attended
every day of the original trial
674
00:29:58,492 --> 00:30:00,059
and the motion hearing,
didn't she?
675
00:30:00,102 --> 00:30:01,538
She sure did.
676
00:30:01,582 --> 00:30:03,584
So, what's more important to her
677
00:30:03,627 --> 00:30:06,065
than testifying
against Arthur's release?
678
00:30:06,108 --> 00:30:08,284
I'll ask Taylor to look into it.
679
00:30:08,328 --> 00:30:12,158
Hate to admit it,
but this contract killer,
680
00:30:12,201 --> 00:30:15,596
Kiril Sidorenko,
was very good at his job.
681
00:30:15,639 --> 00:30:17,685
I love a good
inspirational success story.
682
00:30:17,728 --> 00:30:19,165
How do you mean?
683
00:30:19,208 --> 00:30:21,080
Well, the guy never established
a signature pattern
684
00:30:21,123 --> 00:30:22,168
that the cops could latch onto.
685
00:30:22,211 --> 00:30:24,692
Never did the same thing twice.
686
00:30:24,735 --> 00:30:27,086
I have been through every murder
he's been accused of,
687
00:30:27,129 --> 00:30:29,131
including the ones he admitted
to in his taped confession,
688
00:30:29,175 --> 00:30:31,177
and there's nothing concrete
that ties those killings
689
00:30:31,220 --> 00:30:32,831
to the Kovolchuk murders.
690
00:30:32,874 --> 00:30:33,875
Any news from the front?
691
00:30:33,919 --> 00:30:35,572
Bull is suddenly
very interested
692
00:30:35,616 --> 00:30:38,271
in Zasha Kovolchuk,
Ivan's widow.
693
00:30:38,314 --> 00:30:40,186
Why? What did she do
to get his attention?
694
00:30:40,229 --> 00:30:42,362
She was not at the
hearing today,
695
00:30:42,405 --> 00:30:45,060
and Bull wants
to know why.
696
00:30:45,104 --> 00:30:46,322
Maybe she had to work.
697
00:30:46,366 --> 00:30:49,021
Let's find out.
698
00:30:49,064 --> 00:30:52,024
According to the background
file I've been compiling on her,
699
00:30:52,067 --> 00:30:54,243
at the time of the murders,
and for years after,
700
00:30:54,287 --> 00:30:55,592
she worked as a cashier
701
00:30:55,636 --> 00:30:57,725
at a Russian bakery
in Little Ukraine.
702
00:30:57,768 --> 00:30:59,031
And now?
703
00:30:59,074 --> 00:31:00,771
Give me a sec.
704
00:31:00,815 --> 00:31:03,165
33, never married
or had another child.
705
00:31:03,209 --> 00:31:05,080
What about work?
706
00:31:05,124 --> 00:31:06,386
Or maybe she moved away.
707
00:31:06,429 --> 00:31:07,909
What's her
-current address?
-Oh.
708
00:31:07,953 --> 00:31:10,869
Apparently, Zasha Kovolchuk
owns a two-bedroom,
709
00:31:10,912 --> 00:31:13,784
two-and-a-half-bath condominium
in Syosset, Long Island
710
00:31:13,828 --> 00:31:15,395
for which she paid
a lot of money.
711
00:31:15,438 --> 00:31:16,962
How much is a lot?
712
00:31:17,005 --> 00:31:19,051
More than your place is worth.
713
00:31:19,834 --> 00:31:22,837
Sorry. I had to look it up when
we were defending you and Greg.
714
00:31:22,881 --> 00:31:24,621
She also owns
715
00:31:24,665 --> 00:31:27,407
a small chain of Russian
bakeries in the tristate area.
716
00:31:27,450 --> 00:31:29,409
Uh, a chain? How
is that possible?
717
00:31:29,452 --> 00:31:30,801
You just said she
was a cashier.
718
00:31:30,845 --> 00:31:32,586
GLOVER:
Good morning, commissioners.
719
00:31:32,629 --> 00:31:34,805
This case is tragically simple.
720
00:31:34,849 --> 00:31:37,243
Two people,
a young man and his baby,
721
00:31:37,286 --> 00:31:39,593
were gunned down in cold blood.
722
00:31:39,636 --> 00:31:42,335
This was a crime
for which a judge saw fit
723
00:31:42,378 --> 00:31:44,337
to give Arthur Craddick
a life sentence.
724
00:31:44,380 --> 00:31:46,861
And the only reason
that we're here today even
725
00:31:46,905 --> 00:31:48,819
entertaining this parole,
is because,
726
00:31:48,863 --> 00:31:51,300
through no effort
on Arthur Craddick's behalf,
727
00:31:51,344 --> 00:31:53,824
a dying, hired contract killer
confessed
728
00:31:53,868 --> 00:31:56,958
to some other unsolved murders
that the police were anxious
729
00:31:57,002 --> 00:31:59,656
to get off their dockets.
730
00:31:59,700 --> 00:32:01,267
And as for
731
00:32:01,310 --> 00:32:05,445
Mr. Craddick's parole plan,
let's review it one more time.
732
00:32:05,488 --> 00:32:08,796
As it turns out,
Hudson University Law School
733
00:32:08,839 --> 00:32:10,711
has just informed us
that they are
734
00:32:10,754 --> 00:32:12,582
withdrawing Arthur Craddick's acceptance
735
00:32:12,626 --> 00:32:14,889
upon learning of his conviction
for double murder.
736
00:32:14,933 --> 00:32:18,414
We've also been informed
that the warehouse manager
737
00:32:18,458 --> 00:32:19,850
who had offered a job
to Mr. Craddick
738
00:32:19,894 --> 00:32:21,809
is likewise withdrawing
the offer
739
00:32:21,852 --> 00:32:24,681
after learning that he was
convicted of killing a child.
740
00:32:24,725 --> 00:32:27,815
And here, Leo's landlord,
741
00:32:27,858 --> 00:32:29,730
with a duty
to protect his other tenants
742
00:32:29,773 --> 00:32:33,647
from a convicted murderer,
has now changed his mind.
743
00:32:33,690 --> 00:32:37,781
And will evict Leo if,
in fact, Arthur moves in.
744
00:32:38,565 --> 00:32:40,610
Let there be
no ambiguity.
745
00:32:40,654 --> 00:32:42,873
Mr. Craddick is
a remorseless killer
746
00:32:42,917 --> 00:32:45,224
who, without a home
or a job or a purpose,
747
00:32:45,267 --> 00:32:49,532
is not at all poised
to successfully reenter society.
748
00:32:53,972 --> 00:32:55,408
I don't understand.
749
00:32:55,451 --> 00:32:56,975
Why are they doing this?
750
00:32:57,018 --> 00:32:59,107
Who are they protecting?
751
00:32:59,151 --> 00:33:00,761
Themselves.
752
00:33:05,374 --> 00:33:07,333
So, last night, while
I was trying to find out
753
00:33:07,376 --> 00:33:08,769
everything I could
about Zasha Kovolchuk
754
00:33:08,812 --> 00:33:10,423
and how she could afford
such a nice home
755
00:33:10,466 --> 00:33:14,035
and so many businesses, I
discovered the damnedest thing.
756
00:33:14,079 --> 00:33:16,342
Starting right after
the murders, Zasha received
757
00:33:16,385 --> 00:33:19,127
monthly cash payments in
amounts ranging from $4,000
758
00:33:19,171 --> 00:33:21,042
to $6,000 from...
759
00:33:21,086 --> 00:33:22,522
You're gonna love this.
760
00:33:22,565 --> 00:33:24,176
...her husband's assassin,
761
00:33:24,219 --> 00:33:26,047
the late Kiril Sidorenko.
762
00:33:26,091 --> 00:33:27,875
Excuse me?
763
00:33:28,658 --> 00:33:31,183
So, what did he say
on that tape?
764
00:33:31,226 --> 00:33:34,925
"No matter how much I have tried
to atone for Galina's death..."
765
00:33:34,969 --> 00:33:38,755
He didn't say "repent,"
he said "atone," which...
766
00:33:38,799 --> 00:33:43,760
is a debt of forgiveness
that can never truly be repaid.
767
00:33:43,804 --> 00:33:47,590
So... Kiril Sidorenko tried,
in his own way,
768
00:33:47,634 --> 00:33:49,592
to buy her forgiveness.
769
00:33:49,636 --> 00:33:52,247
Yeah. We have to get her
to that parole hearing.
770
00:33:52,291 --> 00:33:54,032
Uh, what do you mean?
771
00:33:54,075 --> 00:33:55,859
Well, Arthur isn't allowed
to testify
772
00:33:55,903 --> 00:33:57,948
to his own innocence.
773
00:33:57,992 --> 00:33:59,820
But she can.
774
00:34:04,433 --> 00:34:05,956
Can I help you?
775
00:34:06,000 --> 00:34:08,437
I'm looking for a messenger.
776
00:34:08,481 --> 00:34:09,917
I need to sign
something.
777
00:34:09,960 --> 00:34:11,614
[chuckles]:
Yeah. I'm sorry.
That's my fault.
778
00:34:11,658 --> 00:34:13,921
There's no messenger. I mean,
I was the one who called you.
779
00:34:13,964 --> 00:34:15,488
I work for Arthur Craddick.
780
00:34:16,358 --> 00:34:18,752
Did you know he wasn't
guilty before the hearing?
781
00:34:18,795 --> 00:34:20,797
Before you saw the tape?
You didn't, did you?
782
00:34:20,841 --> 00:34:22,712
That's why you stopped
showing up for the hearings.
783
00:34:22,756 --> 00:34:24,671
You realized after
all these years
784
00:34:24,714 --> 00:34:26,325
you'd been wrong.
785
00:34:26,368 --> 00:34:28,849
Who do you think the man was
sending you money every month?
786
00:34:30,633 --> 00:34:32,461
Ms. Kovolchuk,
I need you to come with me
787
00:34:32,505 --> 00:34:33,941
and testify on Arthur's behalf.
788
00:34:33,984 --> 00:34:35,899
Leave me alone, or I'm
going to call the police.
789
00:34:35,943 --> 00:34:37,466
Believe me, the police
are the last people
790
00:34:37,510 --> 00:34:39,294
you want in your
life right now.
791
00:34:39,338 --> 00:34:41,644
You pocketed $700,000,
all of it undeclared.
792
00:34:41,688 --> 00:34:43,646
You know what that's called?
Tax fraud.
793
00:34:43,690 --> 00:34:45,474
Then you funneled
that blood money
794
00:34:45,518 --> 00:34:46,867
into business
transactions.
795
00:34:46,910 --> 00:34:48,129
That's called money laundering.
796
00:34:48,173 --> 00:34:50,088
But from the second
that you knew
797
00:34:50,131 --> 00:34:53,874
Arthur didn't kill your husband
and you kept it to yourself...
798
00:34:53,917 --> 00:34:56,006
that's obstruction of justice.
799
00:34:56,050 --> 00:34:58,487
So you come with me, and
I will do everything I can
800
00:34:58,531 --> 00:34:59,880
to make that
stuff go away.
801
00:34:59,923 --> 00:35:04,972
But I need you to talk
to the parole board.
802
00:35:05,015 --> 00:35:07,627
♪
803
00:35:09,977 --> 00:35:12,588
You know where our friend
Detective Kaminsky is?
804
00:35:12,632 --> 00:35:14,024
I have no idea.
805
00:35:14,068 --> 00:35:15,852
SCHUSTER:
Mr. Craddick,
806
00:35:15,896 --> 00:35:19,029
you're now invited to speak
on your own behalf.
807
00:35:19,073 --> 00:35:21,423
Well, if it pleases
the parole board,
808
00:35:21,467 --> 00:35:24,165
we would like to call
one last support witness.
809
00:35:24,209 --> 00:35:26,428
We would not ask for
the additional time
810
00:35:26,472 --> 00:35:30,519
if we didn't believe the witness
to be vitally important.
811
00:35:30,563 --> 00:35:31,955
Certainly.
812
00:35:31,999 --> 00:35:33,696
Go ahead.
813
00:35:35,394 --> 00:35:37,091
[door opens]
814
00:35:54,456 --> 00:35:56,719
Good afternoon.
815
00:35:56,763 --> 00:36:00,332
For 12 years,
the legal system told me,
816
00:36:00,375 --> 00:36:02,638
over and over again,
817
00:36:02,682 --> 00:36:07,165
that Arthur Craddick killed
my baby and killed my husband.
818
00:36:07,948 --> 00:36:10,559
It wasn't their opinion,
it wasn't their theory,
819
00:36:10,603 --> 00:36:14,041
it was simply the fact.
820
00:36:14,084 --> 00:36:18,480
And that fact has been a rock
my grief could always hold onto.
821
00:36:18,524 --> 00:36:23,616
My certainty that that man
was in a jail for what he did.
822
00:36:25,400 --> 00:36:26,880
But...
823
00:36:27,663 --> 00:36:32,929
...at that hearing, watching
Kiril Sidorenko's confession
824
00:36:32,973 --> 00:36:34,931
changed all of that.
825
00:36:34,975 --> 00:36:38,892
Robbed me of all of that.
826
00:36:38,935 --> 00:36:42,765
Because when you
finally hear the truth...
827
00:36:42,809 --> 00:36:47,117
no matter what people try
to insist the facts are,
828
00:36:47,161 --> 00:36:48,597
you know.
829
00:36:48,641 --> 00:36:50,991
You know deep
in your heart.
830
00:36:51,034 --> 00:36:52,427
I loved my husband,
831
00:36:52,471 --> 00:36:55,474
but let me tell you something
about my husband.
832
00:36:55,517 --> 00:36:57,650
My husband was a criminal.
833
00:36:58,477 --> 00:37:00,392
He threatened people.
834
00:37:00,435 --> 00:37:01,697
He took their money.
835
00:37:01,741 --> 00:37:03,917
And he dared them
to call the police.
836
00:37:03,960 --> 00:37:07,225
So trust me,
I know about criminals.
837
00:37:07,268 --> 00:37:11,141
So when you ask me,
"What do you think, Zasha?
838
00:37:11,185 --> 00:37:13,796
Who shot your baby
and your husband?"
839
00:37:13,840 --> 00:37:15,450
A hired killer?
840
00:37:15,494 --> 00:37:18,932
So bigger criminals,
tougher criminals,
841
00:37:18,975 --> 00:37:20,847
jealous of your husband's success,
842
00:37:20,890 --> 00:37:23,980
can threaten people,
take their money
843
00:37:24,024 --> 00:37:26,679
and dare them
to call the police?
844
00:37:28,115 --> 00:37:30,117
Or a local dry cleaner,
845
00:37:30,160 --> 00:37:33,990
bringing up a child alone,
with everything to lose
846
00:37:34,034 --> 00:37:35,949
and very little to gain.
847
00:37:37,255 --> 00:37:38,865
I think the answer
848
00:37:38,908 --> 00:37:40,519
is obvious.
849
00:37:40,562 --> 00:37:45,306
As much as I want to believe
in Arthur Craddick's guilt...
850
00:37:45,350 --> 00:37:48,309
the terrible truth is...
851
00:37:48,353 --> 00:37:50,746
I know now...
852
00:37:50,790 --> 00:37:53,401
he is innocent.
853
00:38:06,066 --> 00:38:07,720
SCHUSTER:
A.D.A. Glover,
854
00:38:07,763 --> 00:38:09,287
your next witness?
855
00:38:11,593 --> 00:38:13,029
Right.
856
00:38:13,073 --> 00:38:16,598
Actually... the original
investigator on this case,
857
00:38:16,642 --> 00:38:18,034
Detective Joseph Kaminsky,
858
00:38:18,078 --> 00:38:20,515
was scheduled to testify today,
859
00:38:20,559 --> 00:38:23,344
but as you can see...
860
00:38:23,388 --> 00:38:25,128
he's not here yet.
861
00:38:25,172 --> 00:38:27,914
SCHUSTER:
And are you in communication
with him?
862
00:38:27,957 --> 00:38:29,307
Is he close?
863
00:38:29,350 --> 00:38:33,615
Actually,
I've been unable to reach him.
864
00:38:33,659 --> 00:38:35,704
Frankly, the facts relating
865
00:38:35,748 --> 00:38:40,056
to Detective Kaminsky's
investigation some 12 years ago,
866
00:38:40,100 --> 00:38:42,058
all of which are circumstantial,
867
00:38:42,102 --> 00:38:45,018
are already familiar
to all of us sitting up here
868
00:38:45,061 --> 00:38:47,150
on the board.
869
00:38:47,194 --> 00:38:49,457
What I'd like to do
at this point
870
00:38:49,501 --> 00:38:51,720
is simply move along.
871
00:38:51,764 --> 00:38:53,374
Of course.
872
00:38:54,549 --> 00:38:56,116
[sighs]
Well...
873
00:38:56,159 --> 00:39:00,076
what once started as a
straightforward parole petition
874
00:39:00,120 --> 00:39:04,820
has suddenly turned into
something highly unusual,
875
00:39:04,864 --> 00:39:07,910
something that typically falls
outside of our purview:
876
00:39:07,954 --> 00:39:10,609
the question of this inmate's
877
00:39:10,652 --> 00:39:13,046
guilt or
innocence.
878
00:39:14,090 --> 00:39:16,441
May I please say something?
879
00:39:19,574 --> 00:39:21,533
A tragedy like this,
880
00:39:21,576 --> 00:39:24,057
it's got a blast radius,
881
00:39:24,100 --> 00:39:27,277
destroying lives
in every single direction.
882
00:39:28,931 --> 00:39:31,325
My family...
883
00:39:31,369 --> 00:39:34,328
your family,
we're connected by that.
884
00:39:35,851 --> 00:39:40,856
I truly am sorry,
Mrs. Kovolchuk,
885
00:39:40,900 --> 00:39:43,859
for all you've been through.
886
00:39:44,643 --> 00:39:46,427
That's all.
887
00:39:46,471 --> 00:39:49,256
I'm sorry for all of it.
888
00:39:49,299 --> 00:39:52,302
For the agony
we've all suffered.
889
00:40:05,011 --> 00:40:08,057
[speaking quietly]
890
00:40:08,101 --> 00:40:10,016
If you're through, Mr. Craddick,
891
00:40:10,059 --> 00:40:12,540
we'd like to render
our decision.
892
00:40:14,847 --> 00:40:16,152
[clears throat]
893
00:40:16,196 --> 00:40:18,372
In the matter
of inmate Arthur Craddick,
894
00:40:18,416 --> 00:40:20,983
it is our unanimous decision
that...
895
00:40:21,027 --> 00:40:23,638
parole shall be granted.
896
00:40:23,682 --> 00:40:26,206
[taking deep breaths]
897
00:40:34,867 --> 00:40:36,390
Dr. Bull...
898
00:40:36,434 --> 00:40:37,478
thank you.
899
00:40:37,522 --> 00:40:40,612
You're welcome.
Only took 12 years.
900
00:40:48,663 --> 00:40:50,622
[both crying]
901
00:40:51,623 --> 00:40:52,841
[lock buzzes]
902
00:40:52,885 --> 00:40:54,843
I didn't dream that,
right?
903
00:40:54,887 --> 00:40:56,497
No, you didn't dream it.
904
00:40:56,541 --> 00:40:57,846
Hot off the presses.
905
00:40:57,890 --> 00:40:59,848
A.D.A. has agreed
to file a motion
906
00:40:59,892 --> 00:41:01,763
to vacate Arthur's conviction.
907
00:41:01,807 --> 00:41:03,852
That means full exoneration.
908
00:41:03,896 --> 00:41:06,115
She also says...
909
00:41:06,159 --> 00:41:08,030
he should be out of here
tomorrow morning.
910
00:41:08,074 --> 00:41:10,424
Man, I got to buy
a bed tonight.
911
00:41:10,468 --> 00:41:12,992
I cannot tell you,
I have imagined this moment
912
00:41:13,035 --> 00:41:14,080
hundreds of times.
913
00:41:14,123 --> 00:41:15,690
[siren approaching]
914
00:41:15,734 --> 00:41:17,605
[tires screech]
915
00:41:17,649 --> 00:41:19,128
Leonard Craddick.
916
00:41:19,172 --> 00:41:20,782
I'm Leonard Craddick.
917
00:41:20,826 --> 00:41:23,655
Officers,
-what's going on here?
-I need to know
918
00:41:23,698 --> 00:41:26,179
if any of you have any weapons
on your person.
919
00:41:26,222 --> 00:41:27,963
-LEO/BULL/BENNY: No.
-Everybody keep
your hands
920
00:41:28,007 --> 00:41:29,748
-on your heads, please.
-BULL:
We're Mr. Craddick's counsel.
921
00:41:29,791 --> 00:41:33,012
We have a right to know
what this is all about.
922
00:41:33,055 --> 00:41:34,404
What the hell?
923
00:41:34,448 --> 00:41:36,319
Leonard Craddick,
you are under arrest
924
00:41:36,363 --> 00:41:38,844
for the murder of
Detective Joseph Kaminsky.
925
00:41:38,887 --> 00:41:41,499
Anything you say can and will
be used against youKaminsky's dead?
926
00:41:41,542 --> 00:41:43,544
in a court of law.
You have the right...
927
00:41:43,588 --> 00:41:45,894
Leo, it's gonna be all right.
Officer, he is to remain
928
00:41:45,938 --> 00:41:47,417
unquestioned until we get there.
929
00:41:47,461 --> 00:41:49,855
Leo, you don't say anything
to anybody!
930
00:41:49,898 --> 00:41:52,118
You understand?
