Beyond A Reasonable Doubt
|
| 00:01:46 |
Does it have to be that tight? |
| 00:01:48 |
Well, we have to be absolutely |
| 00:01:50 |
Don't we? |
| 00:01:54 |
I'll... I'll try not to be. |
| 00:01:57 |
All right, here we go. |
| 00:02:07 |
Okay, next. |
| 00:02:16 |
This is difficult. |
| 00:02:17 |
- Can I try the first one again? |
| 00:02:20 |
Here you are. |
| 00:02:26 |
This one. |
| 00:02:28 |
Now are you sure? |
| 00:02:31 |
No, I'm sure. |
| 00:02:33 |
Okay, why don't you take your blindfold |
| 00:02:38 |
I can't believe it. |
| 00:02:41 |
We tested 100 people, |
| 00:02:43 |
22 of which chose the instant coffee |
| 00:02:46 |
Another 29 people |
| 00:02:48 |
That's a total of 51% who chose |
| 00:02:52 |
over the $3-a-cup gourmet brand. |
| 00:02:55 |
So the next time |
| 00:02:57 |
are you really paying |
| 00:03:00 |
or just a very fancy name? |
| 00:03:02 |
This is CJ Nicholas for the News 8 |
| 00:03:10 |
Hey, thanks, guys. |
| 00:03:12 |
- I really appreciate it. |
| 00:03:15 |
- I have chills. |
| 00:03:17 |
Could you give me some cutaways? |
| 00:03:18 |
And I'd really appreciate it |
| 00:03:30 |
There really isn't much more to say. |
| 00:03:32 |
Lucinda Harris was 22 years old. |
| 00:03:35 |
She's never gonna have a career. |
| 00:03:37 |
- Did I miss it? |
| 00:03:39 |
She's never gonna have a marriage. |
| 00:03:40 |
She's never gonna be able |
| 00:03:43 |
hold it in her arms. |
| 00:03:44 |
And her parents there are never |
| 00:03:48 |
watch how her life unfolds. |
| 00:03:53 |
It's done. |
| 00:03:57 |
And do you know why? |
| 00:04:00 |
Because this man sitting right here, |
| 00:04:03 |
Andre Benson, felt that she didn't |
| 00:04:07 |
Oh, she gave it to him, all right. |
| 00:04:09 |
Just not fast enough for Mr. Benson. |
| 00:04:11 |
So he shot her. |
| 00:04:13 |
He shot her three times. |
| 00:04:17 |
Only once, she might |
| 00:04:20 |
Two times, |
| 00:04:22 |
there would have been |
| 00:04:25 |
So he made sure. |
| 00:04:29 |
Now the defense would like to tell you |
| 00:04:33 |
There is no eyewitness, |
| 00:04:37 |
no alibi. |
| 00:04:38 |
Andre Benson was home |
| 00:04:41 |
watching TV. |
| 00:04:45 |
The defense can also explain |
| 00:04:48 |
why Mr. Benson ran |
| 00:04:51 |
when the police came |
| 00:04:52 |
He's a young black man |
| 00:04:56 |
Naturally you hear a loud bang |
| 00:05:02 |
But do you know what? |
| 00:05:04 |
We made sure too. |
| 00:05:07 |
We made triple sure. |
| 00:05:10 |
There's one thing he can't explain. |
| 00:05:17 |
This cigarette butt |
| 00:05:20 |
with Andre Benson's DNA |
| 00:05:24 |
was found at the scene |
| 00:05:27 |
lying right next |
| 00:05:31 |
Now you have heard |
| 00:05:33 |
the expert testimony |
| 00:05:36 |
The odds of this not being |
| 00:05:38 |
Andre Benson's DNA |
| 00:05:40 |
is 6 billion to one. |
| 00:05:43 |
That's right, 6 billion, |
| 00:05:46 |
with a B, |
| 00:05:47 |
to one. |
| 00:05:52 |
Hunter dribbles behind |
| 00:05:55 |
Here comes the shot. |
| 00:05:57 |
Now if you're willing to take that bet, |
| 00:05:59 |
then I don't want to be |
| 00:06:02 |
- I want to be your bookie. |
| 00:06:21 |
With this latest victory, you have |
| 00:06:24 |
Are you going to announce |
| 00:06:26 |
- The latest polls have you ahead. |
| 00:06:29 |
- Are you running for governor? |
| 00:06:31 |
Paul, let me tell you something. |
| 00:06:33 |
was taken away in a moment |
| 00:06:37 |
That's what today is about. |
| 00:06:38 |
Now why do moments like this |
| 00:06:42 |
Those are the things |
| 00:06:44 |
Tonight when we all go home, |
| 00:06:47 |
we have to ask |
| 00:06:50 |
take an innocent human life |
| 00:06:52 |
and treat it with such little respect? |
| 00:06:54 |
Just snuff it out |
| 00:06:58 |
Now my only hope |
| 00:07:01 |
is that Mr. and Mrs. Harris |
| 00:07:05 |
Today is not about keeping score. |
| 00:07:07 |
It's not about politics. |
| 00:07:09 |
Today was a real tragedy. |
| 00:07:16 |
Could he be smoother? |
| 00:07:18 |
I got a chubby just watching. |
| 00:07:21 |
Listen, I'll meet you |
| 00:07:25 |
Hey, dude, I keep on telling you. |
| 00:07:30 |
And I'm gonna keep on trying. |
| 00:07:34 |
Thank you. |
| 00:07:35 |
Hey. Hi. |
| 00:07:37 |
CJ, you've been |
| 00:07:40 |
- You noticed me. |
| 00:07:43 |
That means you were looking at me. |
| 00:07:44 |
I was looking at you staring. |
| 00:07:47 |
- You're staring again. |
| 00:07:50 |
- I'm not staring. |
| 00:07:52 |
- I came to beg a favor. |
| 00:07:54 |
We're doing a companion piece |
| 00:07:57 |
and I was wondering whether you'd |
| 00:08:00 |
Now why would I do that? |
| 00:08:01 |
'Cause then you get to |
| 00:08:03 |
I can't go out to dinner with you. |
| 00:08:05 |
It's not meal specific. |
| 00:08:08 |
- CJ, I can't. |
| 00:08:09 |
- You're a reporter. |
| 00:08:11 |
- I don't hold that against you. |
| 00:08:13 |
- Not much. |
| 00:08:15 |
Or why not? |
| 00:08:17 |
A lot of reasons. |
| 00:08:19 |
- Why is correct. |
| 00:08:20 |
Too smooth. |
| 00:08:22 |
And I'm not sure he's honest. |
| 00:08:24 |
You say these things about my boss and |
| 00:08:28 |
I don't expect. |
| 00:08:30 |
And I don't want to go out to dinner with |
| 00:08:32 |
Besides, there's gonna be so many things |
| 00:08:36 |
favorite colors, small dogs... |
| 00:08:39 |
electric or manual toothbrush... |
| 00:08:41 |
countless things we're gonna |
| 00:08:43 |
I promise I won't look or stare. |
| 00:08:46 |
You'd really be helping me out |
| 00:08:49 |
What harm could it do? |
| 00:08:51 |
- The trial's over. |
| 00:08:53 |
- In person would be much... |
| 00:08:56 |
- better. |
| 00:08:58 |
- Chinese. |
| 00:09:02 |
I like Chinese food. |
| 00:09:04 |
Chinese. |
| 00:09:06 |
But just dinner. You're not gonna |
| 00:09:10 |
- What was I thinking? |
| 00:09:36 |
Hey hey, that same lady who keeps |
| 00:09:39 |
she called twice today. |
| 00:09:42 |
You're my hero. |
| 00:09:45 |
- Uh, excuse me. You can't go in. |
| 00:09:47 |
- You look great, by the way. |
| 00:09:49 |
- Thank you, Val. |
| 00:09:51 |
- This is the big one. |
| 00:09:54 |
District Attorney |
| 00:09:56 |
forensic evidence to get |
| 00:09:59 |
He's not sitting his ass down. |
| 00:10:00 |
I am though. |
| 00:10:02 |
Snug. |
| 00:10:05 |
- I've got proof. |
| 00:10:08 |
Hear me out. |
| 00:10:10 |
Hunter lost a string of cases. |
| 00:10:12 |
Now that's not something |
| 00:10:15 |
And then badda-bing... |
| 00:10:18 |
Now he's leading the polls |
| 00:10:20 |
You think maybe he's on a lucky streak? |
| 00:10:21 |
DAs don't try cases |
| 00:10:24 |
Okay, take a look at this. |
| 00:10:26 |
Oh my God. |
| 00:10:28 |
It's the crime scene photo |
| 00:10:30 |
Why am I listening to you? |
| 00:10:32 |
There was no footprint match, |
| 00:10:34 |
no trace that Andre Benson |
| 00:10:36 |
except for this cigarette butt. |
| 00:10:38 |
So Andre Benson had the presence |
| 00:10:41 |
but not his cigarette butt |
| 00:10:44 |
I think you used the word proof? |
| 00:10:48 |
The interview tape. |
| 00:10:51 |
Just bear with me here. |
| 00:10:57 |
The detective on the left, |
| 00:11:00 |
Now before Hunter joined the DA's |
| 00:11:03 |
and his partner for many |
| 00:11:06 |
than Detective Lieutenant |
| 00:11:09 |
Now watch. |
| 00:11:11 |
Okay, here we go. |
| 00:11:15 |
That's how they got the cigarette |
| 00:11:17 |
- It's right there in front of us. |
| 00:11:19 |
You going along with this? |
| 00:11:21 |
All of these 17 convictions |
| 00:11:26 |
In each case the lead detective was |
| 00:11:29 |
How did you get that tape? |
| 00:11:31 |
From a source. |
| 00:11:33 |
And I bet this source has a skirt. |
| 00:11:35 |
Does it matter? |
| 00:11:36 |
- Not really. |
| 00:11:38 |
I mean, this is a story... |
| 00:11:41 |
I just received the new budget. |
| 00:11:42 |
We can't afford the investigation |
| 00:11:44 |
- What? |
| 00:11:46 |
- Come on. |
| 00:11:48 |
- No. |
| 00:11:50 |
It just so happens that the folks |
| 00:11:52 |
have this funny little obsession |
| 00:11:54 |
It seems that ratings pay the rent. |
| 00:11:57 |
So you guys are both |
| 00:12:00 |
- Oh, come on. |
| 00:12:02 |
Hey, I saw your documentary. |
| 00:12:05 |
- What about this story? |
| 00:12:07 |
You've got some stones coming |
| 00:12:09 |
You answer me one simple question: |
| 00:12:11 |
How in the hell could Detective Merchant |
| 00:12:15 |
when the interview took place |
| 00:12:17 |
the crime scene photographs |
| 00:12:21 |
Well... |
| 00:12:22 |
Pick up your assignments |
| 00:12:31 |
I would just like to say |
| 00:12:34 |
Out! |
| 00:12:40 |
I've been assigned to our fearless |
| 00:12:44 |
You're doing a piece on people |
| 00:12:47 |
Hunter's dirty. |
| 00:12:51 |
And I'm gonna prove it. |
| 00:12:52 |
I've worked too hard to go back |
| 00:12:55 |
There's baby rhinos at the zoo? |
| 00:12:57 |
What? No, it's a metaphor. |
| 00:12:59 |
- You know, baby rhinos, kitten in a tree. |
| 00:13:01 |
- So there's no baby rhinos? |
| 00:13:03 |
Hey, CJ, that woman |
| 00:13:07 |
Yeah, okay. |
| 00:13:09 |
- Yeah, line 7. |
| 00:13:12 |
- Do you mind? |
| 00:13:14 |
- Get the hell out of here. |
| 00:13:21 |
Hello? |
| 00:13:24 |
Yeah. |
| 00:13:26 |
Listen, now's... |
| 00:13:31 |
Yes. |
| 00:13:33 |
No, I'm not. |
| 00:13:35 |
Things aren't going |
| 00:13:39 |
I understand. |
| 00:13:42 |
Okay. |
| 00:13:44 |
I will. |
| 00:13:48 |
I promise. |
| 00:13:58 |
Thank you. |
| 00:14:02 |
You should have seen |
| 00:14:04 |
There should be an age limit |
| 00:14:06 |
Sorry I missed it. |
| 00:14:09 |
I didn't come out here |
| 00:14:11 |
Who does? |
| 00:14:13 |
Right. |
| 00:14:17 |
You're not staring at me. |
| 00:14:18 |
You told me I wasn't allowed to. |
| 00:14:20 |
I didn't think you'd actually listen. |
| 00:14:21 |
I'm feeling too sorry for myself |
| 00:14:24 |
- That's a damn shame. |
| 00:14:32 |
Give it your best shot. |
| 00:14:44 |
That's not too bad. |
| 00:14:46 |
I could do much better. |
| 00:14:49 |
This is my B stare. |
| 00:14:51 |
If I ever give you my full stare... |
| 00:14:53 |
Shut up. |
| 00:14:55 |
Keep staring. |
| 00:15:29 |
I felt so sorry for you. |
| 00:15:32 |
You looked so sad |
| 00:15:36 |
Ah yes, the whole |
| 00:15:39 |
I was making that up. |
| 00:15:41 |
It's not the end of your career. |
| 00:15:43 |
- It's not exactly a promotion. |
| 00:15:46 |
All you have to do |
| 00:15:48 |
Really good, |
| 00:15:51 |
Well, I... |
| 00:15:54 |
think I might have something. |
| 00:15:55 |
Might have. |
| 00:15:57 |
- Maybe. |
| 00:15:59 |
Not now. |
| 00:16:01 |
I just can't tell you now. |
| 00:16:03 |
I don't even have it yet. |
| 00:16:06 |
And it's privileged. |
| 00:16:07 |
Everything I said |
| 00:16:09 |
that's privileged. |
| 00:16:22 |
Morning. |
| 00:16:26 |
Good morning is right. |
| 00:16:28 |
Coffee? |
| 00:16:30 |
Thank you. |
| 00:16:32 |
What's in your kitchen? |
| 00:16:34 |
A stove, a refrigerator |
| 00:16:37 |
What about eggs? |
| 00:16:39 |
Yes, eggs. |
| 00:16:41 |
- And maybe even some toast? |
| 00:16:57 |
Holy shit. |
| 00:17:00 |
You won an award. |
| 00:17:03 |
Yeah, that's what brought me out here. |
| 00:17:05 |
I was working for a little station |
| 00:17:08 |
You know, Mark Twain once said that to |
| 00:17:14 |
I did this piece |
| 00:17:18 |
15-year-old kid, got pregnant |
| 00:17:20 |
and her mother kicked her |
| 00:17:22 |
She had no home, |
| 00:17:24 |
in the middle |
| 00:17:27 |
You can't even begin to imagine |
| 00:17:30 |
Found her living on the streets |
| 00:17:32 |
It's nice to know people will pay |
| 00:17:37 |
She was in a snowstorm |
| 00:17:39 |
I'd like to see it. |
| 00:17:41 |
- Yeah? |
| 00:17:43 |
Okay. |
| 00:17:46 |
She was so little. |
| 00:17:48 |
She wouldn't let me show her face. |
| 00:17:50 |
Felt like she could break |
| 00:17:53 |
I cleaned her off as best I could. |
| 00:17:55 |
I knew I had to keep her warm. |
| 00:17:57 |
I wrapped her underneath my coat. |
| 00:18:00 |
I could feel her against my breast. |
| 00:18:02 |
After a while I felt her grow, |
| 00:18:06 |
you know, cold |
| 00:18:08 |
up against my skin. |
| 00:18:16 |
I knew the church, |
| 00:18:18 |
they'd take care of her. |
| 00:18:20 |
They'd bury my baby girl. |
| 00:18:22 |
When I started to walk away |
| 00:18:25 |
I just couldn't see her wrapped |
| 00:18:28 |
in front of the church. |
| 00:18:31 |
I knew she was with God. |
| 00:18:33 |
Still... |
| 00:18:36 |
I couldn't look back. |
| 00:18:41 |
Jane Doe's mother had a... |
| 00:18:46 |
Wow. |
| 00:18:50 |
I, uh, don't really know |
| 00:18:53 |
It's... I'd like to see the rest. |
| 00:18:56 |
Go ahead, take it. |
| 00:18:58 |
I've got a bunch of copies. |
| 00:19:00 |
- She, uh... |
| 00:19:02 |
She died of an overdose |
| 00:19:05 |
She never got to see the piece |
| 00:19:07 |
So they brought me out here. |
| 00:19:10 |
It's not much bigger, |
| 00:19:13 |
but at least I got my own |
| 00:19:15 |
And now that's gone. |
| 00:19:20 |
CJ, you really are |
| 00:19:22 |
Hey, no no. |
| 00:19:25 |
You said you had an idea. |
| 00:20:09 |
Look, I told you |
| 00:20:13 |
All right, I will. |
| 00:20:25 |
You dropped your pens. |
| 00:20:28 |
Later. |
| 00:21:03 |
Four, four, good. |
| 00:21:05 |
Stay on that way. |
| 00:21:07 |
No seven. |
| 00:21:09 |
- Come on. |
| 00:21:12 |
- Yeah, I noticed. |
| 00:21:14 |
How far would you go |
| 00:21:16 |
I mean, you know me, |
| 00:21:19 |
Would you risk everything? |
| 00:21:21 |
Depends on what you mean |
| 00:21:23 |
Everything means everything, |
| 00:21:26 |
- You're kidding. |
| 00:21:29 |
Jesus. I mean, I don't know. |
| 00:21:32 |
I'm talking about the biggest story |
| 00:21:35 |
I'm talking about the Pulitzer Prize. |
| 00:21:37 |
- You're also talking about prison. |
| 00:21:40 |
When I'm done, you say no |
| 00:21:43 |
Of course it will mean you'll spend |
| 00:21:46 |
producing ticky tidbits |
| 00:21:49 |
And it'll also mean |
| 00:21:52 |
We gonna cut to commercial |
| 00:21:55 |
Right, cut to the chase. |
| 00:21:56 |
We both know that Hunter is bringing |
| 00:21:59 |
- Right. |
| 00:22:01 |
- but we know that he's doing it. |
| 00:22:03 |
- You with me? |
| 00:22:04 |
Well, there's one way |
| 00:22:07 |
- And is this the risky part? |
| 00:22:09 |
First we have to wait |
| 00:22:14 |
What do you... |
| 00:22:18 |
The murder of some |
| 00:22:20 |
Some junkie or hooker |
| 00:22:21 |
where the cops have no suspect |
| 00:22:24 |
And there's got to be some |
| 00:22:28 |
like a tire track |
| 00:22:29 |
Not a lot. |
| 00:22:31 |
And it's got to happen |
| 00:22:33 |
Who needs an ali... |
| 00:22:35 |
I can't have an alibi 'cause that's when |
| 00:22:38 |
We what? |
| 00:22:40 |
We plant enough circumstantial |
| 00:22:42 |
- You're shitting me. |
| 00:22:44 |
We not only plant it, |
| 00:22:47 |
You tape me doing it, |
| 00:22:49 |
each time with the day's |
| 00:22:51 |
That way we can prove that |
| 00:22:54 |
Aren't there laws |
| 00:22:55 |
More than one. |
| 00:22:58 |
and District Attorney Mark S Hunter |
| 00:23:02 |
He'll arrest me, he'll indict me |
| 00:23:05 |
And not only will he |
| 00:23:07 |
he will have a truly sexy, juicy, |
| 00:23:11 |
front page lead story |
| 00:23:13 |
that'll tie up the nomination |
| 00:23:16 |
And he'll have a white defendant |
| 00:23:24 |
Is there a change of seasons |
| 00:23:26 |
Because he could never ever |
| 00:23:29 |
And he'll only have |
| 00:23:32 |
Some trace of my DNA |
| 00:23:34 |
just like it was in all the other cases. |
| 00:23:36 |
Only this time after he introduces it, |
| 00:23:38 |
you get the video |
| 00:23:41 |
You think there's a chance a judge |
| 00:23:43 |
won't have much of a sense of humor |
| 00:23:46 |
A judge will go stark raving apeshit. |
| 00:23:47 |
The pandemonium this'll create |
| 00:23:49 |
by graphically proving |
| 00:23:52 |
that'll overshadow everything. |
| 00:23:54 |
Do you have any idea |
| 00:23:58 |
Do you really think the DA's office |
| 00:24:00 |
is gonna want to prosecute us |
| 00:24:03 |
Look, we know a wrong |
| 00:24:05 |
by a man that may become |
| 00:24:07 |
We are investigative reporters. |
| 00:24:09 |
This is our chance to prove it. |
| 00:24:11 |
It's perfect. |
| 00:24:13 |
I don't know, man. |
| 00:24:15 |
Come on, this is our chance. |
| 00:24:17 |
This could be our Pulitzer. |
| 00:24:19 |
This is the diem |
| 00:24:22 |
This is the proverbial pot that we |
| 00:24:25 |
This right here, right now, |
| 00:24:33 |
God help me. |
| 00:24:37 |
I'm in. |
| 00:24:40 |
No, God help Mark Hunter. |
| 00:24:50 |
I don't know, Ella. |
| 00:24:52 |
You're either awfully late |
| 00:24:55 |
You okay? |
| 00:24:57 |
Uh, yeah, I'm okay. |
| 00:24:59 |
It's just tomorrow |
| 00:25:02 |
Thought maybe the best way to prepare |
| 00:25:06 |
That's what I did at my first trial. |
| 00:25:08 |
You know, worked for me. |
| 00:25:10 |
You see that judge's bench, |
| 00:25:12 |
that big old fancy seal, the flag, |
| 00:25:14 |
the jury box and you go, "Whoa. |
| 00:25:17 |
This is big. |
| 00:25:20 |
And it is. |
| 00:25:22 |
We put bad guys away. |
| 00:25:26 |
And if you're sure... |
| 00:25:28 |
I mean down to your marrow sure... |
| 00:25:30 |
that defendant is guilty, |
| 00:25:32 |
that jury is going |
| 00:25:35 |
But if you've got |
| 00:25:38 |
you'll lose them like sand |
| 00:25:41 |
It's amazing. They can smell doubt. |
| 00:25:45 |
So I guess the most important |
| 00:25:51 |
- Are you? |
| 00:25:53 |
- No doubts? |
| 00:25:55 |
You make them feel that, |
| 00:25:57 |
you're not gonna have any |
| 00:26:00 |
That, you know, and maybe work |
| 00:26:04 |
Okay. |
| 00:26:06 |
- Ella, good night. |
| 00:26:08 |
- And good luck. |
| 00:26:16 |
- CJ, wake up! |
| 00:26:22 |
Ow! Shit! |
| 00:26:25 |
- CJ! |
| 00:26:34 |
Is she here? I was hoping to |
| 00:26:37 |
I'm dying to see her naked. |
| 00:26:38 |
No, she's got a trial in the morning. |
| 00:26:40 |
- What's going on? |
| 00:26:43 |
I came down on my ankle |
| 00:26:46 |
because some asshole woke me |
| 00:26:50 |
What? |
| 00:26:52 |
Get dressed. |
| 00:27:09 |
Gentlemen. |
| 00:27:10 |
And I use that term loosely |
| 00:27:13 |
How'd you get here so fast? |
| 00:27:15 |
We do have police scanners |
| 00:27:17 |
Really? Next thing you're gonna |
| 00:27:20 |
- Who is she? |
| 00:27:23 |
Her purse was full of condoms. |
| 00:27:25 |
'cause the condoms |
| 00:27:27 |
Cute. Homicide? |
| 00:27:28 |
Four stab wounds |
| 00:27:29 |
I'm gonna go way out |
| 00:27:31 |
Got any leads? |
| 00:27:33 |
Got a witness. |
| 00:27:35 |
Or at least his dog did. |
| 00:27:37 |
- Any physical evidence? |
| 00:27:39 |
What about the knife? |
| 00:27:42 |
Why are you so interested? |
| 00:27:44 |
The victim doesn't have to be famous |
| 00:27:46 |
Whatever you say. |
| 00:27:49 |
- I'm gonna check him out. |
| 00:27:51 |
Listen, think maybe I could take a look |
| 00:27:54 |
- Now why the hell would I do that? |
| 00:27:57 |
Springsteen? |
| 00:27:59 |
- No, his cousin Ralph. |
| 00:28:02 |
What? |
| 00:28:04 |
Do I look white to you? |
| 00:28:05 |
Well, in certain angles. |
| 00:28:07 |
Your Mr. Springsteen does not |
| 00:28:10 |
We're talking about The Boss here. |
| 00:28:12 |
No, he's your Boss. |
| 00:28:14 |
Did I mention backstage passes? |
| 00:28:15 |
I mean, do you have any idea |
| 00:28:17 |
for backstage passes to Springsteen? |
| 00:28:19 |
Take a good look at me. |
| 00:28:21 |
This is exactly |
| 00:28:24 |
I'll think of something. |
| 00:28:26 |
You always do, my brother. |
| 00:28:28 |
You always do. |
| 00:28:32 |
Goody bag from Nickerson... |
| 00:28:35 |
I knew he couldn't pass up |
| 00:28:39 |
All right, let's see |
| 00:28:42 |
Ooh, wow. Ha. |
| 00:28:45 |
Shoeprint came in from some loopy |
| 00:28:49 |
They don't make it anymore. |
| 00:28:51 |
11 and a half. He never went |
| 00:28:54 |
They also found a can |
| 00:28:56 |
Probably the victim's. |
| 00:28:58 |
The witness heard an argument |
| 00:29:00 |
He heard the man cry out in pain. |
| 00:29:03 |
Then the woman screamed, |
| 00:29:05 |
bit the perp and the guy ran away. |
| 00:29:07 |
- Got him Saint's tickets. |
| 00:29:10 |
Jack Russell terrier. |
| 00:29:12 |
Jim Carrey, "The Mask"... |
| 00:29:14 |
45 yard line? |
| 00:29:17 |
The witness didn't see the perp but said |
| 00:29:20 |
Looked like Reebok because it had |
| 00:29:23 |
He was positive it had two stripes, |
| 00:29:25 |
sneakers and a dark ski mask. |
| 00:29:28 |
And he was holding a knife |
| 00:29:30 |
Row 22. |
| 00:29:31 |
Stab wounds are consistent |
| 00:29:34 |
That's the same row as... |
| 00:29:39 |
Dude, tell me you didn't |
| 00:29:44 |
- You're not telling me. |
| 00:29:46 |
You said one reason, right? |
| 00:29:49 |
What does it say about the victim? |
| 00:29:51 |
You are beyond a prick. |
| 00:29:53 |
I am a prick that is going to win |
| 00:29:57 |
- Now have they ID'd the victim yet? |
| 00:30:00 |
Shit. |
| 00:30:01 |
She was just 22 years old. |
| 00:30:03 |
Lots of arrests for solicitation, |
| 00:30:06 |
A coulpe here in Shreveport. |
| 00:30:08 |
Others in Virginia, Maryland, |
| 00:30:12 |
One way to see America... |
| 00:30:17 |
22 years old. |
| 00:30:20 |
So let's make our shopping list. |
| 00:30:22 |
We really gonna do this? |
| 00:30:48 |
You boys lost? |
| 00:30:50 |
Crate & Barrel is about |
| 00:30:54 |
Actually, we're... |
| 00:30:58 |
we're looking for a switchblade, |
| 00:31:00 |
Some bully picking on you during recess? |
| 00:31:03 |
- It's got to have a white handle. |
| 00:31:05 |
- I know that. |
| 00:31:06 |
- No. |
| 00:31:08 |
Who, me? Cop? No. |
| 00:31:11 |
Do I look like a cop? |
| 00:31:15 |
- It's a prop. |
| 00:31:17 |
We're making an independent film. |
| 00:31:19 |
One of the characters |
| 00:31:34 |
350. |
| 00:31:36 |
You've got to be joking. |
| 00:31:38 |
Do I look like the type of man |
| 00:31:40 |
No, you don't. |
| 00:31:42 |
Come on. |
| 00:31:45 |
Well, why don't you try Walmart? |
| 00:31:48 |
Wait. |
| 00:31:52 |
and throw in a can of pepper spray. |
| 00:31:57 |
Sounds like a pretty violent |
| 00:31:59 |
- Yeah. |
| 00:32:06 |
Cash only. |
| 00:32:10 |
You got 150? |
| 00:32:16 |
How's it going? |
| 00:32:19 |
All right. |
| 00:32:21 |
- Can I get a receipt? |
| 00:32:22 |
- Why not? |
| 00:32:27 |
Can I ask you a personal question? |
| 00:32:29 |
Go right ahead. |
| 00:32:31 |
What happens with that nose ring |
| 00:32:35 |
It gets snot on it. |
| 00:32:36 |
Okay, let's... |
| 00:32:38 |
Thanks a lot. |
| 00:32:42 |
Thank you. |
| 00:33:48 |
Are you looking for |
| 00:33:50 |
A Jack Russell terrier. |
| 00:33:51 |
Like the kind in "Mask" |
| 00:33:53 |
I think I know what a Jack Russell is. |
| 00:33:56 |
We have one |
| 00:33:58 |
He's out there. |
| 00:34:02 |
He's not a purebred. |
| 00:34:04 |
this is not the right place for you. |
| 00:34:09 |
- Is he the same size? |
| 00:34:12 |
Could we see his teeth? |
| 00:34:15 |
You can tell he's not too old. |
| 00:34:18 |
These little fellas |
| 00:34:20 |
You might want to think |
| 00:34:22 |
- He's completely housebroken. |
| 00:34:25 |
- We'll take him. |
| 00:34:27 |
Would you mind holding this up? |
| 00:34:29 |
I know what it's like. |
| 00:34:33 |
like it's a presidential inauguration. |
| 00:34:35 |
Well, I hope he brings |
| 00:34:37 |
to you both. |
| 00:34:41 |
- Thanks. |
| 00:34:43 |
- Come on. |
| 00:34:49 |
These doggy treats actually |
| 00:34:51 |
I think I might try one. |
| 00:34:53 |
- I'm gonna name him Woodward. |
| 00:34:56 |
All right, Woodward. |
| 00:34:59 |
That's it, get it. |
| 00:35:01 |
Come on. |
| 00:35:03 |
Yeah, get 'em. |
| 00:35:06 |
- I'm gonna throw these things on. |
| 00:35:30 |
Ow! Not yet, you moron. |
| 00:35:33 |
Finley, get in here. |
| 00:35:35 |
- What happened? |
| 00:35:36 |
- God damn, this hurts. |
| 00:35:40 |
- Shit. |
| 00:35:42 |
- Put it in the shot. |
| 00:35:43 |
Grab that. |
| 00:35:45 |
Little bastard wouldn't even wait |
| 00:35:48 |
- You got it? |
| 00:35:49 |
Who the hell wears a Montalvo? |
| 00:35:53 |
Never heard of it. |
| 00:35:54 |
We searched every |
| 00:35:57 |
None of them have ever |
| 00:35:59 |
They stopped making it in 1999. |
| 00:36:02 |
That tells you how popular they were. |
| 00:36:05 |
Maybe the guy is from Italy. |
| 00:36:07 |
Right, this has all the earmarks |
| 00:36:09 |
What about a tourist, you know, |
| 00:36:12 |
Maybe. |
| 00:36:14 |
- I don't know. |
| 00:36:16 |
stored next to all those other evidence |
| 00:36:20 |
I hate that smell. |
| 00:36:23 |
I really do. |
| 00:36:39 |
All right, let's do this. |
| 00:36:44 |
Okay. |
| 00:36:56 |
Yeah, there you go. |
| 00:37:01 |
Okay. |
| 00:37:04 |
- Got that? |
| 00:37:06 |
I'm sure I don't want to do it. |
| 00:37:08 |
- if we just sprayed the mask. |
| 00:37:10 |
Think Katie Couric would do this |
| 00:37:11 |
She had a colonoscopy on national |
| 00:37:14 |
Huh. |
| 00:37:15 |
God! Shit! |
| 00:37:18 |
Oh shit. Put your head up. |
| 00:37:20 |
- I can't see. |
| 00:37:23 |
Oh God, I'm tasting it. |
| 00:37:24 |
- Christ, that burns. |
| 00:37:27 |
You're all heart, you know that? |
| 00:37:29 |
- Yeah, I got it. |
| 00:37:35 |
Tomorrow night's the night. |
| 00:37:37 |
We could go to jail for this, |
| 00:37:39 |
- It's possible. |
| 00:37:42 |
All right, I'm gonna make |
| 00:37:45 |
and I'm gonna keep the original |
| 00:37:48 |
You can back out now |
| 00:37:49 |
Just give me the tape |
| 00:37:52 |
and I'll never reveal |
| 00:37:53 |
What if they threaten you with jail? |
| 00:37:55 |
I'll already be in jail, |
| 00:37:57 |
Okay, what if they go all Guantanamo |
| 00:38:00 |
- Then I'd definitely crack. |
| 00:38:02 |
But I couldn't bear the thought of you |
| 00:38:05 |
Just remember, we can't breathe |
| 00:38:08 |
Not even my own lawyer can know. |
| 00:38:10 |
- All right. |
| 00:38:12 |
Absolutely nobody. |
| 00:38:14 |
What about the lady with the fantastic |
| 00:38:17 |
- Okay, just her. |
| 00:38:20 |
Shut up. |
| 00:38:22 |
- I'm just as scared as you are. |
| 00:38:30 |
This way. |
| 00:38:35 |
- You lied to me. |
| 00:38:37 |
- You said you hated small dogs. |
| 00:38:40 |
- Hey. |
| 00:38:43 |
I was at the animal shelter |
| 00:38:45 |
He was pretty hard to resist. |
| 00:38:48 |
- Hello. What's your name? |
| 00:38:50 |
Probably gonna have |
| 00:38:53 |
- It's Woodward. |
| 00:38:56 |
Your eyes are red. |
| 00:38:59 |
Just allergies from the dog. |
| 00:39:01 |
- Hello. Oh. |
| 00:39:03 |
- Oh my. |
| 00:39:06 |
- What's stopping you? |
| 00:39:09 |
No, there's a difference. |
| 00:39:11 |
Come on. |
| 00:39:14 |
Ugh! |
| 00:39:16 |
See? Now me. |
| 00:39:20 |
Mmm. |
| 00:39:24 |
No thanks. I prefer sugar |
| 00:39:28 |
Oh, sorry. |
| 00:39:30 |
It's understandable, |
| 00:39:36 |
- Where are you? |
| 00:39:39 |
Where are you? |
| 00:39:41 |
I'm, uh... |
| 00:39:44 |
It's nothing. |
| 00:39:46 |
It's because I said the L word |
| 00:39:49 |
- You said you're a lesbian? |
| 00:39:51 |
I'm sorry. |
| 00:39:53 |
I was an idiot. |
| 00:39:56 |
I just got kind of carried away |
| 00:39:59 |
No. No, that's not it. |
| 00:40:01 |
I was glad you said it. |
| 00:40:04 |
Actually, I feel the same way. |
| 00:40:06 |
Was it just the heat of passion |
| 00:40:08 |
No. You do? |
| 00:40:12 |
What? I'm confused now. |
| 00:40:13 |
No, it wasn't the heat |
| 00:40:16 |
You do feel the same way? |
| 00:40:19 |
You know I do. |
| 00:40:20 |
- I... |
| 00:40:22 |
No, I think I do. |
| 00:40:31 |
Listen to me. |
| 00:40:34 |
- You might hear some things. |
| 00:40:37 |
Things... |
| 00:40:39 |
- What are you talking about? |
| 00:40:42 |
Are you married? |
| 00:40:44 |
No. |
| 00:40:46 |
Do you have a brood of illegitimate |
| 00:40:49 |
- Not a one. |
| 00:40:50 |
where body parts I like |
| 00:40:52 |
- No. |
| 00:41:24 |
Come on. |
| 00:41:56 |
Here we go. |
| 00:42:25 |
Oh, man. |
| 00:42:29 |
I had to see this for myself. |
| 00:42:31 |
Well, my brother, |
| 00:42:33 |
Go ahead, have your fun. |
| 00:42:36 |
You couldn't take my intermediate |
| 00:42:39 |
So I will remember this sight as one |
| 00:42:41 |
which unfortunately was all too brief. |
| 00:42:43 |
Good news is you made bail. |
| 00:42:47 |
Your friend Finley |
| 00:42:51 |
Last name Nicholas, |
| 00:42:53 |
middle name John; |
| 00:42:56 |
Sign here. |
| 00:42:59 |
The lesser good news is |
| 00:43:02 |
are gathered outside with |
| 00:43:05 |
and their need for blood. |
| 00:43:09 |
They are a hungry bunch. |
| 00:43:12 |
I arranged for your friend to park |
| 00:43:14 |
which would allow you |
| 00:43:17 |
and sneak out the back. |
| 00:43:18 |
I owe you. |
| 00:43:20 |
I'll think of something. |
| 00:43:22 |
I'm sure you will. |
| 00:43:26 |
Hey, guys. |
| 00:43:28 |
- You ready? |
| 00:43:33 |
Thanks again. |
| 00:43:35 |
No problem. |
| 00:43:45 |
No problem at all. |
| 00:43:50 |
Ella. |
| 00:43:52 |
Something happened tonight. |
| 00:43:55 |
No no no, no accident. |
| 00:43:59 |
I am, really. |
| 00:44:02 |
It's just I sort of got arrested... |
| 00:44:05 |
more like actually arrested |
| 00:44:07 |
for DUl. |
| 00:44:09 |
No, don't come over, |
| 00:44:15 |
Wait a minute. |
| 00:44:17 |
Yeah, hold on. |
| 00:44:20 |
Ella, I'm gonna have to call you back. |
| 00:44:24 |
You know, the I-love-you thing. |
| 00:44:29 |
Well, it's still happening. |
| 00:44:32 |
I love you. |
| 00:44:33 |
Shreveport Police Department. |
| 00:44:36 |
All right, I'm coming. |
| 00:44:39 |
Open the door |
| 00:44:48 |
This is a warrant to search your home. |
| 00:44:51 |
I need you to read it |
| 00:44:55 |
Lift your trouser leg, please. |
| 00:44:57 |
You mind telling me |
| 00:44:58 |
The pant leg, CJ. |
| 00:45:03 |
Let's try the other leg. |
| 00:45:11 |
Well well, |
| 00:45:13 |
- It's nothing. |
| 00:45:17 |
Lift the bandage and let me see. |
| 00:45:22 |
- And how'd you get that? |
| 00:45:24 |
Hey, Lieutenant. |
| 00:45:31 |
- Turn around, please. |
| 00:45:32 |
Turn around now. |
| 00:45:35 |
CJ Nicholas, you are under arrest |
| 00:45:37 |
for the murder |
| 00:45:40 |
- Are you crazy? |
| 00:45:41 |
can and will be used against you |
| 00:45:44 |
You have the right to an attorney. |
| 00:45:47 |
I'm sure Mr. Nicholas understands |
| 00:45:50 |
- Isn't that right, Mr. Nicholas? |
| 00:45:53 |
What I don't understand is why |
| 00:45:56 |
Thank you very much, Detective Nickerson. |
| 00:45:58 |
- What? |
| 00:46:01 |
- Are you taking my collar? |
| 00:46:03 |
No one is taking anything |
| 00:46:05 |
You'll get all the credit for your work. |
| 00:46:06 |
I'm taking over the investigation |
| 00:46:10 |
I don't get this. |
| 00:46:17 |
The best seats to any event |
| 00:47:15 |
I called you every day. |
| 00:47:16 |
I know you have. |
| 00:47:20 |
I don't understand. |
| 00:47:24 |
- You shouldn't be here. |
| 00:47:26 |
- I don't want you getting hurt. |
| 00:47:29 |
No, listen to me. |
| 00:47:31 |
Your boss, for God's sake. |
| 00:47:34 |
You can't have anything |
| 00:47:35 |
I have everything to do with you. |
| 00:47:37 |
Have you thought about what would |
| 00:47:39 |
- found out about the two of us? |
| 00:47:41 |
Are you kidding me? |
| 00:47:44 |
This is about your life here. |
| 00:47:47 |
I'm gonna resign from the DA's office |
| 00:47:50 |
No. No, you can't do that. |
| 00:47:53 |
You can't. |
| 00:47:55 |
- You sound like a Martian. |
| 00:47:59 |
You're in a lot of trouble. |
| 00:48:01 |
Promise me you're not gonna |
| 00:48:03 |
- What are you doing? |
| 00:48:05 |
This has something to do |
| 00:48:07 |
- Why would you ask that? |
| 00:48:09 |
This has something to do |
| 00:48:12 |
I'm asking you to trust me. |
| 00:48:13 |
There's something |
| 00:48:16 |
Here's what you need to know: |
| 00:48:20 |
I love you. |
| 00:48:22 |
And I'm innocent. |
| 00:48:25 |
I can't have you mixed up in this. |
| 00:48:26 |
Please help me by understanding |
| 00:48:31 |
Love me enough to trust me. |
| 00:48:35 |
Can you do that? |
| 00:48:47 |
Thank you. |
| 00:48:51 |
After two days of jury selection, |
| 00:48:52 |
the murder trial of Channel 8's |
| 00:48:56 |
in what promises to be the most... |
| 00:48:57 |
District Attorney Mark Hunter will |
| 00:49:00 |
in what is expected... |
| 00:49:02 |
...the most anticipated murder trials |
| 00:49:04 |
television reporter CJ Nicholas |
| 00:49:20 |
- Hey, how you doing? |
| 00:49:23 |
Don't worry. |
| 00:49:25 |
Just remember, don't get |
| 00:49:28 |
We have to wait for Hunter |
| 00:49:30 |
Otherwise we have nothing. |
| 00:49:37 |
- What's that about? |
| 00:49:39 |
He was just wishing me luck. |
| 00:49:42 |
We could use some. |
| 00:49:53 |
All rise. |
| 00:49:56 |
Oyez oyez oyez. |
| 00:49:58 |
Section 4 of the Honorable |
| 00:50:01 |
in and for the State of Louisiana, |
| 00:50:04 |
is open and pursuant |
| 00:50:05 |
God save the state |
| 00:50:08 |
Order and silence are commanded |
| 00:50:10 |
Please be seated. |
| 00:50:12 |
- Are the people ready? |
| 00:50:13 |
- Is the defense ready? |
| 00:50:16 |
Then we'll begin with our |
| 00:50:19 |
Thank you, Your Honor. |
| 00:50:22 |
Jane Doe's mother had a name, |
| 00:50:23 |
She had hopes |
| 00:50:26 |
She had love |
| 00:50:28 |
And she had kindness |
| 00:50:31 |
Two weeks after that interview |
| 00:50:35 |
We can only hope for two things: |
| 00:50:37 |
One, that she's reunited |
| 00:50:41 |
And two, that her death |
| 00:50:43 |
That can only be accomplished |
| 00:50:45 |
that the only difference |
| 00:50:47 |
is the accident of where |
| 00:50:49 |
We had no control over it. |
| 00:50:51 |
Therefore we are no better |
| 00:50:54 |
I'm CJ Nicholas. |
| 00:51:00 |
And after you saw the man with |
| 00:51:03 |
Oh, I didn't have time to do anything. |
| 00:51:05 |
- Excuse me. Oliver? |
| 00:51:08 |
He's a Jack Russell terrier |
| 00:51:11 |
They don't know they're small. |
| 00:51:12 |
They are absolutely fearless. |
| 00:51:14 |
Mr. Tarlow, what happened after |
| 00:51:17 |
Oliver just ran up and bit him. |
| 00:51:18 |
- Where? |
| 00:51:21 |
And Jack Russells |
| 00:51:25 |
There were four stab wounds. |
| 00:51:27 |
One severed the left carotid artery. |
| 00:51:28 |
Another just beneath the sternum |
| 00:51:31 |
The remaining two |
| 00:51:33 |
and opened the small intestines. |
| 00:51:35 |
Dr. Romans, I'd like you |
| 00:51:38 |
previously entered |
| 00:51:41 |
This was taken from |
| 00:51:45 |
Could that be the murder weapon? |
| 00:51:48 |
Yes, the blade's length and width |
| 00:51:52 |
And when you examined this knife |
| 00:51:57 |
No, it had recently been cleaned |
| 00:51:59 |
with a strong industrial-strength |
| 00:52:01 |
And deformities on the handle indicate |
| 00:52:05 |
Plus striations on the blade indicate |
| 00:52:07 |
the blade had |
| 00:52:09 |
I have no more questions. |
| 00:52:11 |
- Your witness. |
| 00:52:14 |
what you're saying |
| 00:52:17 |
if this is the actual |
| 00:52:19 |
No. |
| 00:52:21 |
Thank you. |
| 00:52:38 |
The dog bite on Mr. Nicholas's left calf |
| 00:52:41 |
was consistent with a dog bite |
| 00:52:44 |
Now you found a shoeprint at the scene. |
| 00:52:47 |
What kind of shoe was that? |
| 00:52:49 |
They belonged to a Montalvo sneaker. |
| 00:52:51 |
Similar to the shoes |
| 00:52:54 |
marked for evidence |
| 00:52:57 |
Yes. |
| 00:52:58 |
Now is that a popular brand sneaker? |
| 00:53:00 |
No, they're extremely rare. |
| 00:53:03 |
In fact, there isn't a single store |
| 00:53:06 |
And did you compare the defendant's |
| 00:53:09 |
Yes. They were a match |
| 00:53:12 |
Now the mask, |
| 00:53:15 |
that was found |
| 00:53:17 |
marked as People's Exhibit E. |
| 00:53:20 |
We found pepper spray |
| 00:53:23 |
on the outside. |
| 00:53:25 |
It was consistent with the pepper |
| 00:53:29 |
Thank you. |
| 00:53:32 |
Now you can't actually tell us |
| 00:53:36 |
- came from Mr. Tarlow's dog? |
| 00:53:39 |
So it could have come from any dog |
| 00:53:42 |
- like the one owned by my client in fact? |
| 00:53:45 |
The crime scene photos show |
| 00:53:47 |
that there was considerable blood |
| 00:53:51 |
- Is that correct? |
| 00:53:52 |
And yet when you examined |
| 00:53:55 |
entered into evidence |
| 00:53:59 |
you found no traces of blood at all. |
| 00:54:01 |
No, but the client had time... |
| 00:54:04 |
Just a yes or no will be sufficient. |
| 00:54:07 |
So in fact, would it be fair to say |
| 00:54:09 |
that there is no direct |
| 00:54:13 |
connecting my client to this crime? |
| 00:54:15 |
Yes. |
| 00:54:17 |
No further questions. |
| 00:54:25 |
So sorry. |
| 00:54:29 |
Yeah? |
| 00:54:32 |
You'll excuse me for one minute. |
| 00:54:34 |
- Sorry, honey. |
| 00:54:46 |
This better be good. |
| 00:55:00 |
So what the hell kind |
| 00:55:02 |
- We checked Nicholas's financials again. |
| 00:55:05 |
He bought a video camera at Wright's |
| 00:55:11 |
There's a point to this, right? |
| 00:55:12 |
He also bought a black Reebok |
| 00:55:15 |
at the sporting goods store. |
| 00:55:16 |
He bought a dog |
| 00:55:18 |
All this within a day of buying |
| 00:55:21 |
Something doesn't smell right. |
| 00:55:22 |
So when he went on this shopping spree, |
| 00:55:25 |
People at the sporting goods |
| 00:55:28 |
Salesclerk at Wright's Audio said he |
| 00:55:31 |
The man at the animal shelter, |
| 00:55:34 |
remembers he was with another man. |
| 00:55:36 |
- Do you know who this man is? |
| 00:55:39 |
Well, if someone did a video, |
| 00:55:43 |
You think we're being set up? |
| 00:55:45 |
We can't have that, can we? |
| 00:55:53 |
Now would you please tell the court what |
| 00:55:57 |
On request of the DA's office, |
| 00:56:01 |
And what did you find on it? |
| 00:56:02 |
We found small traces of blood |
| 00:56:06 |
We missed it the first time. |
| 00:56:08 |
You Honor, we were given no |
| 00:56:11 |
Judge, we only discovered |
| 00:56:14 |
I'll allow it. |
| 00:56:16 |
I'll give you time |
| 00:56:20 |
Did you do a DNA analysis |
| 00:56:22 |
that you found |
| 00:56:24 |
- Yes I did. |
| 00:56:27 |
The blood belonged to the victim. |
| 00:56:32 |
I have no more questions, |
| 00:56:43 |
Excuse me. |
| 00:56:46 |
Stop. |
| 00:57:17 |
Oh shit. |
| 00:57:35 |
Your Honor, the prosecution rests. |
| 00:57:37 |
Are you ready to call |
| 00:57:39 |
Yes, Your Honor. The defense would |
| 00:57:52 |
Go. |
| 00:57:53 |
Stop stop. |
| 00:57:58 |
Excuse me. Sorry. |
| 00:58:00 |
Hi, I need to open |
| 00:58:03 |
My name's Corey Finley. |
| 00:58:08 |
Certainly, Mr. Findley. |
| 00:58:09 |
Oh, it's actually Finley. |
| 00:58:12 |
Oh. That would explain why |
| 00:58:16 |
Probably, yeah. |
| 00:58:17 |
You know, I have a cousin |
| 00:58:19 |
- You do? |
| 00:58:20 |
Second cousin really. |
| 00:58:22 |
Or is it first cousin once removed? |
| 00:58:25 |
I can never figure that out. |
| 00:58:27 |
You see, she's married |
| 00:58:29 |
Do you know how |
| 00:58:30 |
No, I don't really... |
| 00:58:33 |
Here it is. |
| 00:58:36 |
Do you have your key |
| 00:58:38 |
Yes, I do. I have my key. |
| 00:58:40 |
- Oh, good. |
| 00:58:44 |
Hey. |
| 00:58:46 |
Okay. |
| 00:58:48 |
It's right in here. |
| 00:58:51 |
150, 151... |
| 00:58:54 |
2263, found it. |
| 00:58:57 |
Well, of course. |
| 00:58:59 |
Okay, here's my key. |
| 00:59:02 |
Do you think that we |
| 00:59:04 |
- I'm in a bit of a rush. |
| 00:59:06 |
Okay. |
| 00:59:13 |
- Care for a private booth? |
| 00:59:18 |
Mr. Finley! |
| 00:59:23 |
Oh! |
| 00:59:25 |
Ow. |
| 00:59:31 |
Excuse me. |
| 00:59:32 |
Sorry. |
| 00:59:36 |
And in your opinion, Dr. Wakefield, |
| 00:59:37 |
could those wounds have been |
| 00:59:41 |
- belonging to the defendant? |
| 00:59:43 |
Any blade of that |
| 00:59:46 |
or width could have |
| 00:59:48 |
There are hundreds |
| 01:01:58 |
Call your next witness, Mr. Spota. |
| 01:02:00 |
I can't keep stalling. |
| 01:02:02 |
Where is this surprise witness |
| 01:02:04 |
He'll be here any second. |
| 01:02:05 |
You've been saying that |
| 01:02:07 |
- He should have been here by now. |
| 01:02:11 |
Uh, Your Honor, |
| 01:02:14 |
we're expecting the appearance |
| 01:02:18 |
Well, do you know where he is? |
| 01:02:20 |
Uh... |
| 01:02:24 |
no, Your Honor. |
| 01:02:30 |
Your Honor, the defense requests |
| 01:02:32 |
so we can examine the prosecution's |
| 01:02:35 |
Motion granted. |
| 01:02:37 |
We'll meet back here at 9:00 AM |
| 01:02:40 |
Court adjourned. |
| 01:02:59 |
Counselor, is the defense |
| 01:03:02 |
We are, Your Honor. |
| 01:03:03 |
The defense calls CJ Nicholas. |
| 01:03:20 |
Raise your right hand. |
| 01:03:22 |
Do you solemnly swear to tell the truth, |
| 01:03:25 |
- so help you God? |
| 01:03:27 |
Be seated. |
| 01:03:39 |
- Did you murder Doris Ruth Owens? |
| 01:03:42 |
So why are you on trial here today? |
| 01:03:44 |
'Cause I wanted to be. |
| 01:03:48 |
What do you mean? |
| 01:03:49 |
I deliberately implicated |
| 01:03:51 |
- Why would you do such a thing? |
| 01:03:54 |
about the DA's office planting |
| 01:03:56 |
in murder trials |
| 01:03:58 |
Your Honor, that is |
| 01:04:00 |
I felt the only way that I could uncover |
| 01:04:04 |
was to implicate myself |
| 01:04:06 |
to see if the DA would fabricate DNA |
| 01:04:12 |
Silence. |
| 01:04:19 |
Did you know about this? |
| 01:04:20 |
Not until my client told me |
| 01:04:22 |
- Is this true? |
| 01:04:25 |
- And you have evidence to support this? |
| 01:04:28 |
Your Honor, I am not |
| 01:04:31 |
with how insulting |
| 01:04:34 |
However, it is obvious that |
| 01:04:38 |
They're trying to create a jury nullification |
| 01:04:42 |
because they know |
| 01:04:44 |
You cannot allow them to present |
| 01:04:48 |
The prosecution opened |
| 01:04:51 |
by introducing last-minute |
| 01:04:53 |
My client is on trial for his life. |
| 01:04:55 |
He should be given every latitude. |
| 01:04:57 |
You say you have evidence. |
| 01:05:00 |
I will not... I repeat, will not |
| 01:05:03 |
let you simply make wild |
| 01:05:06 |
Understand me, Mr. Nicholas? |
| 01:05:08 |
Oh, there will be no mistrial. |
| 01:05:10 |
There will be a contempt of court |
| 01:05:14 |
if your proof turns out |
| 01:05:17 |
- We understand, Your Honor. |
| 01:05:19 |
- although you are on a very short leash. |
| 01:05:22 |
Now, CJ, please tell the court |
| 01:05:25 |
I had been investigating |
| 01:05:27 |
There had been a series of cases |
| 01:05:30 |
always DNA, was introduced. |
| 01:05:32 |
and I became convinced that |
| 01:05:35 |
But why go to such |
| 01:05:37 |
It was my last resort. |
| 01:05:40 |
I couldn't make my suspicions |
| 01:05:42 |
- So what did you do? |
| 01:05:45 |
from Detective Nickerson. Then I went out |
| 01:05:48 |
and got him to bite me |
| 01:05:50 |
Then I bought the switchblade, |
| 01:05:52 |
This is a receipt for the sneakers |
| 01:05:54 |
I'd like to mark |
| 01:05:57 |
You can see that it is clearly dated |
| 01:05:58 |
three days |
| 01:06:01 |
This is a receipt for the sweatpants, |
| 01:06:04 |
Again, dated after the murder. |
| 01:06:06 |
So if you bought the sweatpants |
| 01:06:09 |
how did the victim's blood get on it? |
| 01:06:11 |
The only answer |
| 01:06:13 |
So you're saying because the DA's case |
| 01:06:17 |
he planted the evidence to tie |
| 01:06:20 |
Yes. |
| 01:06:24 |
No further questions, |
| 01:06:39 |
That's it? |
| 01:06:41 |
That's the proof |
| 01:06:43 |
that I'm a calculating |
| 01:06:46 |
Not to mention a felon? |
| 01:06:48 |
A couple receipts |
| 01:06:52 |
My office and myself |
| 01:06:55 |
because you bought |
| 01:06:58 |
a few days after the murder. |
| 01:06:59 |
I've got to hand it to you, |
| 01:07:02 |
- And the sneakers. |
| 01:07:03 |
I forgot about the sneakers. |
| 01:07:06 |
Judge, you've got to put |
| 01:07:12 |
I agree. |
| 01:07:19 |
Do you... |
| 01:07:21 |
and I use this word very loosely... |
| 01:07:23 |
do you have any proof? |
| 01:07:32 |
I made a DVD |
| 01:07:35 |
- Everything. |
| 01:07:37 |
My colleague who shot it... |
| 01:07:42 |
was killed in an accident |
| 01:07:47 |
And the disc was destroyed. |
| 01:07:49 |
Well, I'm very sorry |
| 01:07:54 |
But other than you saying |
| 01:07:57 |
that you have a DVD |
| 01:08:01 |
is there... |
| 01:08:04 |
again lightly... |
| 01:08:06 |
is there any proof |
| 01:08:08 |
that that DVD exists? |
| 01:08:14 |
I'm sorry, |
| 01:08:16 |
Answer the question, |
| 01:08:23 |
- No. |
| 01:08:26 |
or no you have no proof it exists? |
| 01:08:28 |
No, all you have is my word. |
| 01:08:30 |
Well, that's kind of on |
| 01:08:33 |
That's not for me to say. |
| 01:08:36 |
You know what, Mr. Nicholas? |
| 01:08:39 |
That's the first thing |
| 01:08:41 |
that I agree with. |
| 01:08:44 |
It's for the jury to decide, isn't it? |
| 01:08:53 |
Now I have just one more question, |
| 01:08:56 |
one little pesky question. |
| 01:09:00 |
The fact that you bought |
| 01:09:03 |
and sweatpants sometime |
| 01:09:07 |
the fact that you bought anything |
| 01:09:11 |
does that mean that you couldn't |
| 01:09:14 |
or sweatpants or bought |
| 01:09:18 |
before the murder? |
| 01:09:23 |
I'm sorry, I did not hear |
| 01:09:30 |
I guess not. |
| 01:09:35 |
Thank you. |
| 01:09:41 |
Despite the sensational claims |
| 01:09:43 |
CJ Nicholas was found guilty |
| 01:09:46 |
It took the jury less than five hours |
| 01:09:48 |
to return a verdict of guilty |
| 01:09:50 |
in the murder trial of Channel 8's |
| 01:09:52 |
Sentencing is next week. |
| 01:09:54 |
DA Hunter said that the state |
| 01:09:57 |
due to the viciousness of the crime. |
| 01:10:09 |
Thanks. |
| 01:10:11 |
What's wrong with you? |
| 01:10:13 |
I have a speech. |
| 01:10:15 |
I've been rehearsing it |
| 01:10:17 |
God knows I've had the time. |
| 01:10:18 |
I kinda thought I had it down, |
| 01:10:21 |
But now my mouth's all cotton. |
| 01:10:22 |
Okay, here it goes. |
| 01:10:27 |
The last time I saw you, |
| 01:10:30 |
You said you knew |
| 01:10:32 |
Then you saw the evidence at the trial |
| 01:10:34 |
"I want to believe him. |
| 01:10:36 |
There's all this evidence. |
| 01:10:38 |
And then the DNA evidence. |
| 01:10:41 |
It was the clincher. |
| 01:10:44 |
- I don't. |
| 01:10:46 |
And it's all right. |
| 01:10:48 |
I don't blame you. |
| 01:10:50 |
I just want you to listen. |
| 01:10:53 |
If there was ever a time |
| 01:10:55 |
if there was ever a time you thought |
| 01:10:57 |
then I want you to hear this. |
| 01:10:59 |
What I said at the trial was true. |
| 01:11:02 |
The DNA was planted by your boss, |
| 01:11:04 |
just like he planted the DNA evidence |
| 01:11:08 |
Now I know you've never met a defendant |
| 01:11:11 |
but I swear it's true. |
| 01:11:13 |
Finley had the disc that proved it all. |
| 01:11:15 |
And I think that Hunter had him killed |
| 01:11:17 |
because the disc that Finley had |
| 01:11:21 |
I know that sounds crazy. |
| 01:11:23 |
- I believe you. |
| 01:11:26 |
I'm asking you not to believe me. |
| 01:11:27 |
I'm begging you to go |
| 01:11:30 |
Be skeptical. |
| 01:11:32 |
Do some digging on your own. |
| 01:11:35 |
Please, you're my last hope. |
| 01:11:38 |
Why would I ask you to do |
| 01:11:40 |
Why would I ask you to find out |
| 01:11:44 |
Because you have nothing left to lose. |
| 01:11:46 |
Oh, Ella. |
| 01:11:48 |
You're so so wrong. |
| 01:11:51 |
I have you to lose. |
| 01:11:55 |
Death by lethal injection... |
| 01:11:57 |
that was the sentence |
| 01:11:59 |
in the CJ Nicholas murder trial, |
| 01:12:01 |
the verdict |
| 01:12:04 |
Nicholas, when asked |
| 01:12:07 |
maintained his innocence |
| 01:12:09 |
would someday be revealed. |
| 01:12:11 |
Nicholas was driven from the court |
| 01:12:14 |
at the Louisiana State Prison |
| 01:12:15 |
where he will live in complete |
| 01:12:18 |
until his appeal process is exhausted. |
| 01:12:24 |
This is not a happy day |
| 01:12:27 |
No life is more precious than another. |
| 01:12:30 |
Doris Ruth Owens's life |
| 01:12:32 |
We cannot bring that back. |
| 01:12:34 |
And the young man CJ Nicholas |
| 01:12:37 |
There's nothing to celebrate. |
| 01:12:39 |
Two lives are going to be lost, |
| 01:12:42 |
one cut short, the other wasted. |
| 01:12:44 |
And the only thing that I can say |
| 01:12:47 |
is that the jury's verdict serves justice. |
| 01:12:50 |
And in that way |
| 01:12:53 |
When I started to walk away, |
| 01:12:57 |
I just couldn't see her wrapped |
| 01:13:01 |
in front of the church. |
| 01:13:04 |
I knew she was safe |
| 01:13:07 |
and warm, |
| 01:13:09 |
that she was with God. |
| 01:13:11 |
Still... |
| 01:13:13 |
I couldn't look back. |
| 01:13:15 |
Jane Doe's mother had a name, |
| 01:13:18 |
She had hopes |
| 01:13:21 |
She had love... |
| 01:13:23 |
May I ask you why you are questioning |
| 01:13:26 |
I'm not representing |
| 01:13:28 |
There's nothing official about this, |
| 01:13:31 |
Why are you here? |
| 01:13:33 |
Please, it's strictly personal. |
| 01:13:37 |
If anyone finds out that I was here talking |
| 01:13:40 |
Now if... and this is a big if... |
| 01:13:43 |
if there is a story here, |
| 01:13:46 |
But again, I don't think |
| 01:13:48 |
What do you want to know? |
| 01:13:50 |
Did CJ come to you about the story |
| 01:13:53 |
Yeah, he claimed that Hunter planted DNA |
| 01:13:57 |
He said there were a lot |
| 01:13:59 |
But you've got to understand, |
| 01:14:00 |
he always had some big story |
| 01:14:02 |
that was just one phone call away, |
| 01:14:04 |
The problem was |
| 01:14:07 |
What was he basing |
| 01:14:09 |
He had a copy of the Andre Benson |
| 01:14:11 |
He claimed that the cigarette |
| 01:14:13 |
on the tape turned up |
| 01:14:14 |
Now I asked him how could you |
| 01:14:17 |
after the crime scene photos |
| 01:14:19 |
- Was he doing this alone? |
| 01:14:21 |
He dragged poor Finley into it. |
| 01:14:27 |
- Ella. |
| 01:14:29 |
- Hi. |
| 01:14:30 |
- I'm good. |
| 01:14:32 |
Is that the only reason |
| 01:14:33 |
Oh, stop it. |
| 01:14:35 |
- Thank you. |
| 01:14:37 |
It's about us getting in a lot |
| 01:14:40 |
So your lab did the DNA testing |
| 01:14:44 |
- Yes. |
| 01:14:46 |
- No, not really. |
| 01:14:48 |
- Well... |
| 01:14:49 |
It's not something |
| 01:14:51 |
Put another body part on it. |
| 01:14:53 |
It's just that some of |
| 01:14:55 |
they came in at the last minute. |
| 01:14:57 |
- And that's unusual? |
| 01:15:00 |
How many of the 17 cases? |
| 01:15:02 |
Most. |
| 01:15:04 |
Oh yeah, I remember them. |
| 01:15:06 |
How could I ever forget? |
| 01:15:09 |
The one with the beard |
| 01:15:11 |
And it turns out the nicer looking one |
| 01:15:14 |
And I was standing this close to him. |
| 01:15:17 |
It gives me shivers. |
| 01:15:20 |
No, I guess you can't. |
| 01:16:10 |
Hello? |
| 01:16:12 |
Operator, I'll accept. |
| 01:16:15 |
Ella, listen. |
| 01:16:18 |
When Finley went home and found |
| 01:16:20 |
he would have gone for backup. |
| 01:16:22 |
What's the absolutely safest place |
| 01:16:25 |
Um, maybe with somebody else. |
| 01:16:29 |
Both of his parents are dead. |
| 01:16:32 |
- What about a friend? |
| 01:16:36 |
Um, a bank. |
| 01:16:38 |
A safety deposit box. |
| 01:16:40 |
Yes. |
| 01:16:42 |
Okay, his bank was |
| 01:16:45 |
Oh yes, I remember him vividly. |
| 01:16:47 |
He was in a terrible hurry. |
| 01:16:50 |
No D in his name, |
| 01:16:52 |
unlike my second |
| 01:16:56 |
Rush rush rush. |
| 01:16:57 |
He simply took something |
| 01:17:01 |
and literally ran out of here. |
| 01:17:04 |
No private cubicle, |
| 01:17:06 |
He didn't even take his key. |
| 01:17:08 |
I've never seen anything |
| 01:17:10 |
Did you see what he removed |
| 01:17:11 |
Oh, we're not allowed to do that. |
| 01:17:13 |
Our customers are guaranteed |
| 01:17:16 |
I appreciate that, Ms. Urlanger. |
| 01:17:18 |
Miss Urlanger. |
| 01:17:20 |
Sounds like a beehive. |
| 01:17:23 |
Um, you said he reached for |
| 01:17:25 |
It's possible that you saw |
| 01:17:28 |
because you couldn't avoid it, |
| 01:17:30 |
Well, now that you mention it, |
| 01:17:34 |
A plastic thingy |
| 01:17:36 |
- A computer disc maybe? |
| 01:17:42 |
The till is directly linked |
| 01:17:44 |
When I scan the barcode |
| 01:17:46 |
it logs the product |
| 01:17:48 |
Right, so you can match any receipt |
| 01:17:51 |
Yup, as long as it has |
| 01:17:54 |
But I already told you guys this. |
| 01:17:56 |
You spoke to someone |
| 01:17:58 |
- Yeah. |
| 01:18:00 |
Yes, he said he was the DA. |
| 01:18:37 |
- Hi. |
| 01:18:38 |
I called about seeing the Nicholas |
| 01:18:40 |
Right, you're from the DA's office. |
| 01:18:41 |
- Yeah, I have a case number. |
| 01:18:44 |
- Oh, thank you. |
| 01:18:48 |
Great, thanks. |
| 01:19:27 |
Ella? |
| 01:19:29 |
What are you doing here so late? |
| 01:19:32 |
I was just looking at the... |
| 01:19:34 |
the original police file |
| 01:19:37 |
I'm not familiar with that case. |
| 01:19:39 |
It's a carjacking. |
| 01:19:41 |
- You know Lieutenant Merchant. |
| 01:19:43 |
- You keep late hours. |
| 01:19:46 |
I hope you're not letting your personal |
| 01:19:49 |
What? |
| 01:19:51 |
You look tired. |
| 01:19:53 |
Yeah, I was actually |
| 01:19:55 |
If you don't get any rest, |
| 01:19:57 |
And health is the most |
| 01:20:00 |
Absolutely. |
| 01:20:05 |
- Good night, Ella. |
| 01:20:23 |
Let me ask you something. |
| 01:20:25 |
If you had to run back to |
| 01:20:28 |
to get your backup disc, |
| 01:20:29 |
wouldn't that mean that there's |
| 01:20:31 |
And would it be missing? |
| 01:20:33 |
I mean, that's just not the kind |
| 01:20:36 |
Maybe you lose your cell phone |
| 01:20:39 |
but definitely not |
| 01:20:41 |
the single most important piece |
| 01:20:46 |
Are you listening to me? |
| 01:20:48 |
Look, I've been thinking |
| 01:20:51 |
When I showed the tape to Weldon |
| 01:20:53 |
of Merchant giving that |
| 01:20:54 |
Weldon said, |
| 01:20:57 |
since the tape was made three days after |
| 01:21:00 |
But what if the crime photos |
| 01:21:02 |
What if they altered |
| 01:21:03 |
What if they put the cigarette |
| 01:21:07 |
Shit. |
| 01:21:09 |
I am not good at this. |
| 01:21:11 |
Look, it's okay. |
| 01:21:14 |
I'm your intern, |
| 01:21:17 |
You don't ask interns to lunch |
| 01:21:20 |
So just ask me. |
| 01:21:22 |
Listen, you know your partner? |
| 01:21:24 |
Roberta? |
| 01:21:25 |
Yeah, I remember |
| 01:21:27 |
in computer science |
| 01:21:29 |
- You do remember. |
| 01:21:31 |
but I need to speak |
| 01:21:34 |
- You mean digital forensics? |
| 01:21:36 |
Well, she can help you. |
| 01:21:37 |
If she doesn't have the answers for you |
| 01:21:39 |
Great. Can you arrange a meeting |
| 01:21:41 |
- Of course. When? |
| 01:21:43 |
- Tonight? |
| 01:21:45 |
A secret is good. |
| 01:21:47 |
I mean, absolutely no one at the DA's |
| 01:21:49 |
Absolutely no one. |
| 01:21:52 |
I'll set it up for tonight. |
| 01:21:55 |
Danielle, there could |
| 01:22:01 |
Danger? |
| 01:22:03 |
Hi. |
| 01:22:09 |
What can I do for you this |
| 01:22:11 |
I'm really sorry |
| 01:22:13 |
especially after hours. |
| 01:22:15 |
It's just I am overwhelmed |
| 01:22:18 |
I haven't even been able |
| 01:22:21 |
He's gonna have my ass tomorrow if... |
| 01:22:22 |
Am I supposed to be following you |
| 01:22:24 |
Oh, sorry. |
| 01:22:25 |
I get kind of wound up |
| 01:22:28 |
We're doing an in-house study |
| 01:22:31 |
specifically photos, |
| 01:22:33 |
by both the state |
| 01:22:35 |
if there's anything we can do |
| 01:22:38 |
you know, keep the bad guys in prison. |
| 01:22:40 |
Which brings me back |
| 01:22:42 |
Is there anything I can do for you |
| 01:22:45 |
Yes. Would you please show me |
| 01:22:47 |
are downloaded from |
| 01:22:50 |
How safe are they? Oh, and also, |
| 01:22:53 |
or are they uncompressed? I want to |
| 01:22:57 |
If you look down there, there's a big old |
| 01:23:01 |
Now all the physical |
| 01:23:03 |
along with the hard drives. |
| 01:23:05 |
has the combination to the lock. |
| 01:23:07 |
As far as images go, |
| 01:23:09 |
I don't know if they're J-whatever- |
| 01:23:12 |
They're all stored on a server. |
| 01:23:14 |
And you can't access to it without |
| 01:23:17 |
And there ain't too many somebodies |
| 01:23:20 |
And you might be one |
| 01:23:21 |
No doubt. |
| 01:23:23 |
Can you show them to me? |
| 01:23:30 |
You got a case number? |
| 01:23:32 |
Me? No. |
| 01:23:34 |
Let's see. |
| 01:23:37 |
That's from... |
| 01:23:39 |
May 21, 2006. |
| 01:23:42 |
Sure, that's fine. |
| 01:23:46 |
Evidence Sergeant Gilbert. |
| 01:23:48 |
This is Colletti from Major Crime. |
| 01:23:50 |
We need the skirt and blouse |
| 01:23:53 |
We need to do a DNA match |
| 01:23:55 |
We might have just caught ourselves |
| 01:23:58 |
I need to know if you have it. |
| 01:23:59 |
You want me to go |
| 01:24:00 |
No, I want you tell my captain |
| 01:24:05 |
All right, hang on. |
| 01:24:06 |
Goddamn son of a bitch. |
| 01:24:08 |
It's like goddamn |
| 01:24:10 |
Goddamn son of a bitch. |
| 01:24:12 |
I'm on a circus train |
| 01:24:19 |
Goddamn son of a bitch. |
| 01:24:23 |
Everything has got to be right now. |
| 01:24:25 |
I've got your goddamn |
| 01:24:32 |
Okay. |
| 01:24:45 |
Okay, come on, come on, |
| 01:24:55 |
Damn it. |
| 01:24:58 |
Everything's right now. |
| 01:25:03 |
If I wanted to talk to people |
| 01:25:10 |
Right now, right now, right now. |
| 01:25:13 |
Goddamn everything's got to be |
| 01:25:15 |
Son of a bitch. |
| 01:25:17 |
No, we ain't got it down here. |
| 01:25:19 |
Are you sure? |
| 01:25:22 |
I'm sure 'cause ain't nobody |
| 01:25:24 |
They must have |
| 01:25:25 |
I'm in some major shit here. |
| 01:25:27 |
Yeah, you do that. |
| 01:26:01 |
Ow! |
| 01:26:17 |
So how you doing, ace? |
| 01:26:24 |
What's this all about? |
| 01:26:27 |
- Guard! |
| 01:26:29 |
Just want to see how you're getting on. |
| 01:26:32 |
Is the food okay? |
| 01:26:34 |
You know, sometimes it gets kinda |
| 01:26:36 |
Why don't you just cut the bullshit? |
| 01:26:39 |
Can't a guy even come by |
| 01:26:42 |
- What the hell do you want? |
| 01:26:45 |
I want everyone to know |
| 01:26:48 |
- Oh, me? |
| 01:26:50 |
No. |
| 01:26:51 |
No, I put away the bad guys. |
| 01:26:54 |
You planted the evidence. |
| 01:27:05 |
You do know they monitor |
| 01:27:11 |
You take care, ace. |
| 01:27:18 |
You son of a bitch! |
| 01:27:31 |
Hi. Come on in here. |
| 01:27:35 |
Ella? |
| 01:27:36 |
- You must be Roberta. |
| 01:27:37 |
You and Danielle may |
| 01:27:39 |
I mean literal lifesavers. |
| 01:27:41 |
Do you have it? I want to see it. |
| 01:27:43 |
Ella, this is Dell and Allen. |
| 01:27:47 |
Sociability is not their strong suit. |
| 01:27:49 |
- Say hello to Ella. |
| 01:27:50 |
- Do you have it? |
| 01:27:52 |
They're not used to actually speaking |
| 01:27:54 |
- so be patient. |
| 01:27:57 |
Uh, the second one there. |
| 01:28:02 |
- Are these real dead people? |
| 01:28:05 |
These are great. |
| 01:28:06 |
No, Allen. |
| 01:28:08 |
I'm Dell. |
| 01:28:10 |
He's Allen. |
| 01:28:12 |
Sorry, Dell. |
| 01:28:17 |
All right, |
| 01:28:19 |
You see this cigarette right here? |
| 01:28:21 |
I need to know if you think it's possible |
| 01:28:24 |
They're uncompressed. |
| 01:28:27 |
- Why's that good? |
| 01:28:29 |
- Metadata? |
| 01:28:31 |
She knows lots of stuff |
| 01:28:34 |
Metadata is literally |
| 01:28:35 |
Digital images are comprised of pixels. |
| 01:28:38 |
If you look closer you find |
| 01:28:40 |
around the pixels. |
| 01:28:42 |
- See the patterns? |
| 01:28:43 |
Tell her about what Lukas and Fridrich |
| 01:28:47 |
Tell her about the statistic |
| 01:28:49 |
Shut up. |
| 01:28:50 |
Three researchers at Binghamton |
| 01:28:53 |
found that cameras |
| 01:28:54 |
and if you look closely enough |
| 01:28:56 |
you can find that there is a difference |
| 01:28:58 |
of the algorithm of each camera |
| 01:29:01 |
There's a subtle difference |
| 01:29:03 |
It's actually like |
| 01:29:06 |
So let's look at the pattern |
| 01:29:08 |
- See it? |
| 01:29:10 |
Now let's move over to the cigarette |
| 01:29:18 |
It's different. |
| 01:29:21 |
That cigarette was definitely not |
| 01:29:24 |
Oh my God. |
| 01:30:01 |
Shit. |
| 01:30:03 |
What was it? |
| 01:30:06 |
Four orange. |
| 01:30:14 |
Where is it? |
| 01:30:17 |
Ah. |
| 01:30:41 |
Oh! |
| 01:32:46 |
You all right? |
| 01:32:52 |
- How'd you know? |
| 01:32:55 |
Never liked that son of a bitch. |
| 01:32:56 |
I knew he was up to something |
| 01:32:58 |
I don't know what else |
| 01:33:00 |
It's what I do. |
| 01:33:03 |
I know. |
| 01:33:07 |
I've got to call this in. |
| 01:33:09 |
He's not the only part. |
| 01:33:12 |
This storm's bigger than you think. |
| 01:33:14 |
We could be talking Katrina here. |
| 01:33:16 |
In an incredible turn of events, |
| 01:33:19 |
District Attorney Mark Hunter |
| 01:33:21 |
and charged with the falsifying |
| 01:33:24 |
in the murder trial of Andre Benson |
| 01:33:25 |
causing a mistrial in that case |
| 01:33:29 |
including the trial of Channel 8 reporter |
| 01:33:32 |
Hunter was taken to the county jail |
| 01:33:34 |
and booked this afternoon. |
| 01:33:47 |
Harold Rice, who is now |
| 01:33:50 |
said that his office has to |
| 01:33:53 |
along with the others |
| 01:33:57 |
in these trials is now suspect. |
| 01:33:58 |
Rice said that he has serious doubts |
| 01:34:01 |
that there was enough |
| 01:34:03 |
as the case was circumstantial |
| 01:34:05 |
and not that strong |
| 01:34:08 |
As a result, he saw no reason |
| 01:34:12 |
News 8's Kelly Gertner reports. |
| 01:34:14 |
The scene was a madhouse today |
| 01:34:16 |
outside Louisiana State Prison |
| 01:34:18 |
as CJ Nicholas went from death row |
| 01:34:22 |
in a matter of hours. |
| 01:34:23 |
As his taxi sped away |
| 01:34:25 |
one could not escape being |
| 01:34:29 |
the rise and spectacular fall |
| 01:34:33 |
who before this afternoon |
| 01:34:35 |
was destined |
| 01:34:37 |
and is now in jail; |
| 01:34:39 |
the fall and now |
| 01:34:43 |
of CJ Nicholas who before this |
| 01:34:47 |
and is now free and about |
| 01:34:52 |
Doris Ruth Owens... |
| 01:34:55 |
the young woman |
| 01:34:57 |
shown here when she was arrested |
| 01:35:00 |
her case is now open again |
| 01:35:02 |
and will likely remain unsolved. |
| 01:35:05 |
She will become one |
| 01:35:08 |
an unsolved case involving |
| 01:35:11 |
a relatively unknown young woman. |
| 01:36:26 |
She was so little. |
| 01:36:31 |
...felt her grow |
| 01:36:32 |
you know, cold. |
| 01:36:37 |
Hey. |
| 01:36:39 |
You don't have to watch |
| 01:36:41 |
Turn it off and come back |
| 01:36:43 |
I'm so dumb. |
| 01:36:45 |
You were right all along. |
| 01:36:47 |
Don't torture yourself. |
| 01:36:51 |
You saved me. |
| 01:36:54 |
Why are you dressed? |
| 01:36:55 |
She was blackmailing you, |
| 01:36:57 |
What? |
| 01:36:59 |
You know, sometimes you hear |
| 01:37:02 |
You don't know what it is |
| 01:37:05 |
It's like a radio station |
| 01:37:08 |
What are you talking about? |
| 01:37:16 |
I've got to hand it to you. |
| 01:37:19 |
And then I saw this photo. |
| 01:37:22 |
Bingo, there it is. |
| 01:37:24 |
That hand. |
| 01:37:25 |
I mean, who could |
| 01:37:28 |
That's Taieesha's hand. |
| 01:37:31 |
There was no Taieesha. |
| 01:37:33 |
Doris Ruth Owens |
| 01:37:35 |
was the girl you hired |
| 01:37:39 |
Your award-winning documentary |
| 01:37:44 |
- Ella... |
| 01:37:47 |
She followed you up here from Buffalo |
| 01:37:50 |
She was going to expose the fact that |
| 01:37:54 |
So you had to stop her. |
| 01:37:56 |
I love you and you love me. |
| 01:37:58 |
Everything was a lie. |
| 01:38:02 |
You killed Doris Ruth Owens |
| 01:38:05 |
because she was threatening |
| 01:38:07 |
You are a lie. |
| 01:38:10 |
What was I supposed to do? |
| 01:38:13 |
Ruin my whole life? |
| 01:38:14 |
What choice did I have? |
| 01:38:17 |
You're worth more than her? |
| 01:38:22 |
No. No, it's not like that. |
| 01:38:31 |
You don't have to do this. |
| 01:38:34 |
Look, Hunter put 17 people in prison |
| 01:38:37 |
Are you telling me that she's worth |
| 01:38:39 |
She's worth more |
| 01:38:41 |
It was a brilliant plan. |
| 01:38:44 |
you expose Hunter, |
| 01:38:47 |
you get to become a star. |
| 01:38:49 |
And after you're acquitted they can't try |
| 01:38:52 |
We can go so far together. |
| 01:38:54 |
There's just one |
| 01:38:57 |
You weren't acquitted. |
| 01:39:00 |
So once they make the connection |
| 01:39:02 |
they'll have enough |
| 01:39:04 |
- This doesn't have to happen. |
| 01:39:06 |
Why? |
| 01:39:09 |
Because it's too late. |
| 01:39:21 |
Ella, what have you done? |
| 01:39:26 |
What have you done!? |
| 01:39:28 |
I really don't have anything more |
| 01:39:36 |
You know, I just thought |
| 01:39:46 |
Fuck you. |
