1
00:00:01,635 --> 00:00:03,342
NARRATOR:
In the criminal justice system
2
00:00:03,470 --> 00:00:07,282
the people are represented by two
separate yet equally important groups,
3
00:00:07,407 --> 00:00:09,284
the police
who investigate crime
4
00:00:09,343 --> 00:00:11,949
and the district attorneys
who prosecute the offenders.
5
00:00:12,179 --> 00:00:14,250
These are their stories.
6
00:00:14,681 --> 00:00:17,423
A little variety? Would
that be a bad thing?
7
00:00:17,684 --> 00:00:19,595
The Cohens got
a strawberry patch.
8
00:00:19,653 --> 00:00:21,394
You know strawberries
give me the hives.
9
00:00:21,455 --> 00:00:25,801
So forget about strawberries.
Why always asparagus, huh?
10
00:00:25,959 --> 00:00:27,267
Why not potatoes?
11
00:00:27,327 --> 00:00:30,706
Potatoes? Sure. There are lots
of ways to cook potatoes.
12
00:00:30,764 --> 00:00:33,108
Baked, mashed, scalloped,
cottage fries.
13
00:00:33,166 --> 00:00:35,578
Cottage fries?
All that grease.
14
00:00:35,636 --> 00:00:38,947
A man of your age? Are you
looking for a heart attack?
15
00:00:40,207 --> 00:00:41,208
LOU?
16
00:00:42,609 --> 00:00:45,215
I think we better call 911.
17
00:00:45,579 --> 00:00:47,388
White male.
Mid- to late-30s.
18
00:00:47,447 --> 00:00:48,687
When did he cash in?
19
00:00:48,749 --> 00:00:52,026
Way it rained last night, hard to tell.
Eight, 10 hours ago.
20
00:00:52,085 --> 00:00:53,428
So around midnight.
21
00:00:55,155 --> 00:00:57,101
Looks like blunt force
upside the head.
22
00:00:57,324 --> 00:00:59,634
With this. Found it
near the entrance.
23
00:00:59,693 --> 00:01:01,366
Blood on the tip over here.
24
00:01:01,428 --> 00:01:03,169
What's their story?
25
00:01:03,230 --> 00:01:07,235
Oh, grapes of wrath. Co-op garden.
The gate's always open.
26
00:01:07,301 --> 00:01:09,042
And nobody saw
or heard anything.
27
00:01:09,102 --> 00:01:10,672
You're amazing.
28
00:01:10,771 --> 00:01:11,806
What's with his hands?
29
00:01:12,005 --> 00:01:15,509
All scraped up. Wingtips
scratched on the uppers.
30
00:01:15,576 --> 00:01:20,457
Well, he probably landed on the pavement and
got dragged in here sometime last night.
31
00:01:20,581 --> 00:01:24,290
Nice selection of tens and twenties.
Probably not a mugging.
32
00:01:24,851 --> 00:01:27,730
Martin Felder,
13 East 82nd Street.
33
00:01:27,788 --> 00:01:29,233
New York Bar Association.
34
00:01:29,289 --> 00:01:31,030
The guy's a lawyer.
Hmm.
35
00:01:31,091 --> 00:01:33,799
I'll be in mourning
for the next five minutes.
36
00:01:33,860 --> 00:01:38,366
East Side Athletic Club. Friends of Lincoln Center.
Metropolitan Museum.
37
00:01:38,432 --> 00:01:41,072
Should have joined the
Horticultural Society.
38
00:02:32,419 --> 00:02:34,194
He was working at the office.
39
00:02:34,254 --> 00:02:36,757
He called say that he was
going to be very late,
40
00:02:36,823 --> 00:02:39,099
so I just went to bed.
41
00:02:39,159 --> 00:02:40,866
He do that often?
Work late?
42
00:02:41,128 --> 00:02:44,701
Yes. He's hardly had
a day off since the spring.
43
00:02:46,166 --> 00:02:48,146
We didn't even
take our vacation.
44
00:02:48,335 --> 00:02:50,440
What was he working on?
I don't know.
45
00:02:51,004 --> 00:02:52,415
Look in his briefcase.
46
00:02:53,707 --> 00:02:54,981
We didn't find a briefcase.
47
00:02:55,042 --> 00:02:56,953
Well, he always
had it with him.
48
00:02:59,179 --> 00:03:02,251
Did he, uh, have any enemies?
49
00:03:02,315 --> 00:03:05,296
Any money problems?
Anything of that nature?
50
00:03:05,352 --> 00:03:08,595
No. Martin was
a very sweet man.
51
00:03:09,256 --> 00:03:13,568
Anything job-related,
like an unhappy client?
52
00:03:14,027 --> 00:03:18,100
No. The only unhappy
person at work was Martin.
53
00:03:18,165 --> 00:03:19,200
ED: How's that?
54
00:03:19,266 --> 00:03:22,440
It was all corporate
work. He hated it.
55
00:03:22,836 --> 00:03:25,407
But he couldn't afford to quit.
56
00:03:25,472 --> 00:03:27,975
He wanted so much
to make a difference.
57
00:03:31,478 --> 00:03:34,482
Marty ran our due diligence
team. He was indispensable.
58
00:03:34,548 --> 00:03:36,494
No one could collate
contracts like him.
59
00:03:36,550 --> 00:03:39,121
Do you know what he was
collating on West 31st?
60
00:03:39,186 --> 00:03:41,928
I wish I knew. This could all be
very embarrassing for the firm.
61
00:03:42,122 --> 00:03:43,965
Not to mention his family.
62
00:03:44,257 --> 00:03:47,500
Was Felder the type to get himself
in embarrassing situations?
63
00:03:47,561 --> 00:03:49,632
If he was, he wouldn't
have been working here.
64
00:03:49,696 --> 00:03:51,369
Right. Uh, Mr. Curry,
65
00:03:51,431 --> 00:03:52,466
if you don't mind,
66
00:03:52,532 --> 00:03:55,570
we'd like to see every piece
of business he was working on.
67
00:03:55,669 --> 00:03:58,878
Besides the fact it's all privileged,
we do mergers and acquisitions.
68
00:03:58,939 --> 00:04:02,318
Far as I know, no one's ever
been killed because of an IPO.
69
00:04:02,375 --> 00:04:05,481
Well, not literally. I'm sorry, I
have to make a conference call.
70
00:04:06,546 --> 00:04:08,184
He had the briefcase
with him when he left.
71
00:04:08,248 --> 00:04:09,249
When was that?
72
00:04:09,316 --> 00:04:10,920
8:30, thereabouts.
73
00:04:10,984 --> 00:04:12,486
He said he had
a business meeting.
74
00:04:12,552 --> 00:04:14,225
He didn't tell me
what it was in regards to.
75
00:04:14,287 --> 00:04:15,891
Would it be in his daytimer?
76
00:04:15,989 --> 00:04:18,230
He usually carried
that in his briefcase.
77
00:04:18,592 --> 00:04:20,731
I didn't schedule the meeting,
so I don't have a record of it.
78
00:04:20,894 --> 00:04:22,134
But you're sure
it was business.
79
00:04:22,195 --> 00:04:25,642
Yes. Mr. Felder was about work.
It was always about work.
80
00:04:25,932 --> 00:04:29,675
He billed 80,90 hours a week. More
than anyone else at the firm.
81
00:04:29,770 --> 00:04:31,909
We're going to need whatever
personal papers are in here.
82
00:04:32,005 --> 00:04:33,484
I'll get you a box.
83
00:04:34,641 --> 00:04:37,554
I'm starting to think Felder
whacked himself over the head.
84
00:04:37,611 --> 00:04:39,613
If I had his life,
I might kill myself.
85
00:04:39,713 --> 00:04:41,852
Or find some very
creative hobbies.
86
00:04:42,649 --> 00:04:44,754
I don't see how he paid
for any hobbies.
87
00:04:44,818 --> 00:04:46,627
Barely any cash
in his own account,
88
00:04:46,686 --> 00:04:49,132
his wife wrote all the checks.
Guy was on a short leash.
89
00:04:49,189 --> 00:04:50,691
I write all the checks
in my house.
90
00:04:50,757 --> 00:04:55,706
Felder charged a rental car to his personal
credit card five, six, seven times
91
00:04:55,762 --> 00:04:58,436
in the last two months.
Always on a weekday.
92
00:04:58,498 --> 00:04:59,875
On a weekday?
93
00:04:59,933 --> 00:05:02,675
Guess he found some
time to stretch that leash.
94
00:05:03,603 --> 00:05:06,607
Mr. Felder always took a
mid-size, same-day return.
95
00:05:06,873 --> 00:05:09,752
Eight rentals in two months.
Last one on Monday.
96
00:05:09,810 --> 00:05:13,155
Day before he was killed. Did Felder
happen to say where he was going?
97
00:05:13,313 --> 00:05:14,383
No.
98
00:05:14,447 --> 00:05:15,858
Oh, here's something.
99
00:05:15,916 --> 00:05:19,295
Two weeks ago he had a breakdown on the
road and had to switch out to another car.
100
00:05:19,386 --> 00:05:22,094
Where? Uh, he dealt with
our branch in Clinton.
101
00:05:22,856 --> 00:05:26,929
Doesn't the Department of Corrections
also have a branch in Clinton?
102
00:05:27,394 --> 00:05:31,171
Felder had a client at the
Clinton Correctional Facility.
103
00:05:31,398 --> 00:05:33,275
Death row inmate,
Stephen Dupree.
104
00:05:33,333 --> 00:05:35,677
He was his handling
his appeal pro bono.
105
00:05:35,735 --> 00:05:38,147
Dupree. Sounds familiar.
106
00:05:38,271 --> 00:05:41,741
He beat a woman to death during
a home robbery four years ago.
107
00:05:41,808 --> 00:05:43,583
Her name was Dana Hagen.
108
00:05:43,643 --> 00:05:46,681
Right. I remember the husband
ran a software company.
109
00:05:46,746 --> 00:05:49,226
He wanted the guy crucified,
and he was not shy about it.
110
00:05:49,282 --> 00:05:52,092
Well, the crucifixion's been
delayed for the umpteenth time.
111
00:05:52,185 --> 00:05:54,665
Dupree got a stay
and filed for a new trial.
112
00:05:54,721 --> 00:05:56,428
His bad luck his lawyer's dead.
113
00:05:56,489 --> 00:05:59,402
Might not be luck.
This Dupree's a piece work.
114
00:05:59,926 --> 00:06:03,430
When the verdict came down he attacked
his attorney in the courtroom.
115
00:06:03,496 --> 00:06:06,943
Then he got a new lawyer who quit
after Dupree threatened him.
116
00:06:07,467 --> 00:06:09,344
He doesn't handle
bad news very well.
117
00:06:09,402 --> 00:06:12,349
Well, if his appeal
wasn't going his way,
118
00:06:12,405 --> 00:06:15,818
getting rid of Felder could stall
the needle a few more years.
119
00:06:16,076 --> 00:06:17,077
He put out a hit?
120
00:06:19,446 --> 00:06:22,017
What do you mean, he's dead?
121
00:06:22,115 --> 00:06:23,924
He was murdered in
the city three days ago.
122
00:06:24,050 --> 00:06:25,222
No.
123
00:06:25,685 --> 00:06:27,824
This can't be happening to me.
124
00:06:27,888 --> 00:06:30,232
It's not.
It happened to Felder.
125
00:06:30,390 --> 00:06:32,631
No, I mean, Felder said
he was getting new evidence.
126
00:06:32,692 --> 00:06:34,672
He said he had a shot
of getting me out of here.
127
00:06:35,161 --> 00:06:37,801
What new evidence? I don't know.
Just check his files.
128
00:06:37,864 --> 00:06:40,071
The police didn't find any
files pertaining to you.
129
00:06:40,133 --> 00:06:42,579
Oh, man, what am I gonna do?
130
00:06:43,470 --> 00:06:46,781
You're gonna get yourself
another lawyer, another stay,
131
00:06:46,873 --> 00:06:48,147
another year or two will go by,
132
00:06:48,208 --> 00:06:50,415
which was the whole point
of having Felder killed.
133
00:06:50,977 --> 00:06:52,684
What are you talking about?
134
00:06:53,280 --> 00:06:56,887
You have a bad track record with lawyers
who don't tell you what you want to hear.
135
00:06:57,017 --> 00:06:59,725
No way.
Felder knew I'm innocent.
136
00:07:01,087 --> 00:07:03,567
He said he was on
a mission to save my life.
137
00:07:04,457 --> 00:07:06,494
Why would I want him dead?
138
00:07:08,028 --> 00:07:11,475
New evidence, Abbie? Favorite
fantasy of the appellate advocate.
139
00:07:11,665 --> 00:07:13,167
What was Felder doing exactly?
140
00:07:13,233 --> 00:07:15,008
Being a pain in the ass.
141
00:07:15,068 --> 00:07:17,344
He subpoenaed any police
files on a Michael Gordon
142
00:07:17,404 --> 00:07:19,315
as they related
to the Hagen murder.
143
00:07:19,372 --> 00:07:21,181
Who's Michael Gordon?
According to Felder,
144
00:07:21,241 --> 00:07:23,380
some kind of bad number
who could clear his client.
145
00:07:23,710 --> 00:07:25,747
And according to you?
Pure smoke.
146
00:07:25,879 --> 00:07:29,156
There's no mention of any Michael
Gordon in the murder file.
147
00:07:29,215 --> 00:07:32,128
The appeal was a loser, Abbie.
Same as Dupree.
148
00:07:32,185 --> 00:07:34,062
The husband saw him walking
away from the townhouse,
149
00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:35,793
even picked him
out of a line-up.
150
00:07:35,855 --> 00:07:37,334
Now, I'm sorry about Felder.
151
00:07:37,390 --> 00:07:39,392
I'm even sorrier Dupree is
going to be breathing our air
152
00:07:39,459 --> 00:07:41,962
a couple of more years
because of this.
153
00:07:42,829 --> 00:07:46,971
In New York State alone there are over 100
Michael Gordons with a criminal record.
154
00:07:47,067 --> 00:07:49,673
Felder's subpoena didn't give any
more information about Gordon?
155
00:07:49,803 --> 00:07:51,339
Just that
he's an ex-con.
156
00:07:51,404 --> 00:07:53,077
You didn't find Felder's
files on Dupree?
157
00:07:53,139 --> 00:07:55,210
No. Could be in
the missing briefcase.
158
00:07:55,275 --> 00:07:57,653
Could be why he was killed
in the first place.
159
00:07:57,711 --> 00:08:00,988
If he had information that implicated
Gordon in a woman's murder...
160
00:08:01,047 --> 00:08:03,960
How did a corporate lawyer like
Felder find a lowlife like Gordon?
161
00:08:04,184 --> 00:08:06,255
P.I.
Paid by who?
162
00:08:06,353 --> 00:08:09,664
We went over Felder's financials, and
sure as hell Dupree didn't foot the bill.
163
00:08:09,856 --> 00:08:12,336
Well, maybe Felder's
law firm did.
164
00:08:16,730 --> 00:08:18,767
Felder stuck his law firm
for my bill, huh?
165
00:08:18,832 --> 00:08:21,039
I love it! Gotta give him
an "atta boy" for that.
166
00:08:21,201 --> 00:08:22,942
Yeah, well it'll have
to be in the next life.
167
00:08:23,036 --> 00:08:25,038
Felder was murdered Tuesday.
168
00:08:25,105 --> 00:08:26,675
No kidding.
169
00:08:26,773 --> 00:08:30,653
Geez, you spend a week in Pompano
and everything turns to hell.
170
00:08:30,910 --> 00:08:31,911
Oh!
171
00:08:32,879 --> 00:08:34,654
What kind of work
did you do for Felder?
172
00:08:35,482 --> 00:08:38,224
He had an appeal on
a robbery-homicide.
173
00:08:39,052 --> 00:08:42,261
I know some people in that
world, so I made some inquiries.
174
00:08:42,455 --> 00:08:44,298
What'd you turn up?
A name.
175
00:08:44,691 --> 00:08:46,136
Michael Gordon.
176
00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:49,873
He unloaded some swag from
a robbery at the time.
177
00:08:49,929 --> 00:08:51,169
Where can we find him?
178
00:08:51,231 --> 00:08:52,710
If I knew that, I would
have told Felder.
179
00:08:52,766 --> 00:08:54,177
Well, where'd you
hear about Gordon?
180
00:08:54,334 --> 00:08:56,177
From the widow
of Max Bronstein.
181
00:08:56,236 --> 00:08:58,341
Max ran a fence
in the West Forties
182
00:08:58,405 --> 00:09:00,146
till the cancer
got him a year ago.
183
00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:03,120
You know about the, uh, phone
calls that Felder got?
184
00:09:03,777 --> 00:09:05,051
No, we don't.
185
00:09:05,111 --> 00:09:07,387
Last week, Felder got a
call on his cell phone
186
00:09:07,447 --> 00:09:09,723
threatening him if he didn't
back off the appeal.
187
00:09:09,783 --> 00:09:10,784
You check into it?
188
00:09:10,850 --> 00:09:14,423
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, I got the IUDs
from the phone company, with no joy.
189
00:09:14,654 --> 00:09:16,600
Call came from
a pay phone, Midtown.
190
00:09:17,223 --> 00:09:18,634
Thanks.
Hey.
191
00:09:19,259 --> 00:09:21,637
We don't give out our
subscribers' numbers to anybody.
192
00:09:21,695 --> 00:09:24,835
They pay for every call they get, so
naturally they don't want unsolicited ones.
193
00:09:24,898 --> 00:09:28,345
So the junk mail I get for special
offers for cell phone users,
194
00:09:28,468 --> 00:09:29,708
who gave them my name?
195
00:09:29,769 --> 00:09:33,148
Well, we do sell our subscriber list to companies.
It's standard practice.
196
00:09:33,206 --> 00:09:35,083
Those lists include
the phone numbers?
197
00:09:35,141 --> 00:09:37,451
Yes, but they're contractually
precluded from calling.
198
00:09:37,677 --> 00:09:39,987
Who'd you sell the list to lately?
Let's see.
199
00:09:45,418 --> 00:09:47,489
Two marketing firms
and a software company.
200
00:09:47,554 --> 00:09:48,897
What software company?
201
00:09:48,955 --> 00:09:50,559
Hagen Software.
202
00:09:50,990 --> 00:09:53,436
As in the husband
of the late Dana Hagen.
203
00:09:57,497 --> 00:09:58,874
We design smart cards
for cell phones,
204
00:09:58,965 --> 00:10:02,174
so of course we buy mailing lists.
It's not illegal.
205
00:10:02,235 --> 00:10:05,444
One of the names you bought was Martin Felder.
Ever hear of him?
206
00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:08,742
No. Why? Who is he?
207
00:10:08,875 --> 00:10:12,721
He's a lawyer. He was filing
an appeal for Steven Dupree
208
00:10:12,779 --> 00:10:15,851
before he was killed last Tuesday.
Name ring a bell now?
209
00:10:16,216 --> 00:10:17,991
Not his name. No.
210
00:10:18,084 --> 00:10:20,724
He got Dupree
a stay of execution.
211
00:10:22,922 --> 00:10:24,924
Did you know that?
I didn't know.
212
00:10:24,991 --> 00:10:28,336
You don't remember Victims'
Assistance calling you to tell you
213
00:10:28,394 --> 00:10:31,841
that Felder filed a new appeal for the
son of a bitch who killed your wife?
214
00:10:31,898 --> 00:10:34,378
ED: You don't remember calling
Felder from a phone booth
215
00:10:34,567 --> 00:10:36,672
around the corner
from your office?
216
00:10:38,571 --> 00:10:43,452
You've been waiting four years
to see this dirtbag put down.
217
00:10:43,510 --> 00:10:45,649
We can imagine how that feels.
No, you can't.
218
00:10:45,779 --> 00:10:49,317
Somebody you love gets killed.
The only way you can stay sane
219
00:10:49,382 --> 00:10:52,295
is to think about what's gonna
happen to the bastard who did it.
220
00:10:52,352 --> 00:10:54,491
Anybody who gets in the way,
like some smart lawyer...
221
00:10:54,554 --> 00:10:56,795
All right! All
right, I called him.
222
00:10:58,024 --> 00:10:59,435
I was angry.
223
00:11:00,593 --> 00:11:03,369
That animal, Dupree,
killed my wife.
224
00:11:07,333 --> 00:11:08,903
I passed him on the street.
225
00:11:10,136 --> 00:11:11,774
He was coming from our home.
226
00:11:14,774 --> 00:11:16,515
He killed my Dana.
227
00:11:19,579 --> 00:11:21,581
Four years I've waited.
228
00:11:21,714 --> 00:11:24,320
Mr. Hagen, what you did
to Felder, we can...
229
00:11:24,384 --> 00:11:26,295
I didn't do anything
to that man.
230
00:11:26,352 --> 00:11:27,922
I called him.
That's all I did.
231
00:11:29,589 --> 00:11:31,466
What were you doing
Monday night?
232
00:11:31,524 --> 00:11:33,401
I was in my office
with two of my colleagues
233
00:11:33,459 --> 00:11:35,735
talking to my supplier
in Manila.
234
00:11:35,795 --> 00:11:37,832
BRISCOE:
We're gonna check on that.
235
00:11:39,632 --> 00:11:40,702
Dupree?
236
00:11:42,869 --> 00:11:46,009
I would kill that man
with my bare hands.
237
00:11:46,072 --> 00:11:47,574
But Felder?
Please.
238
00:11:48,374 --> 00:11:49,876
What would be the point?
239
00:11:51,444 --> 00:11:54,323
Hagen was on an online conference
call to the Philippines.
240
00:11:54,380 --> 00:11:56,417
The whole thing was
recorded by webcam.
241
00:11:56,549 --> 00:11:58,790
Back to the mysterious
Michael Gordon.
242
00:11:58,851 --> 00:12:00,057
If he killed Dana Hagen,
243
00:12:00,119 --> 00:12:01,393
he has motive to kill Felder.
244
00:12:01,454 --> 00:12:04,594
Whoa, whoa. Dana Hagen was
killed by Steven Dupree.
245
00:12:04,691 --> 00:12:06,693
Why don't we start
by finding Gordon?
246
00:12:06,826 --> 00:12:08,430
Gordon's a ghost.
247
00:12:08,494 --> 00:12:10,974
I know you know
who prosecuted Dupree.
248
00:12:11,764 --> 00:12:12,834
Andy Wolinsky.
249
00:12:12,899 --> 00:12:14,310
Judge Wolinsky.
250
00:12:14,601 --> 00:12:18,845
The cops go after suspects that don't
exist, Dupree's next lawyer is gonna talk
251
00:12:18,905 --> 00:12:21,545
the Appellate Court into
giving him a new trial.
252
00:12:21,941 --> 00:12:25,650
And then, my friends, there will be
enough brownie sandwiches to go around.
253
00:12:25,778 --> 00:12:28,588
We'll handle this
on the QT for now.
254
00:12:28,648 --> 00:12:31,390
Just Abbie and
Lieutenant Van Buren.
255
00:12:31,751 --> 00:12:34,197
You're the Executive
A.D.A., Jack.
256
00:12:34,420 --> 00:12:36,195
It's entirely your call.
257
00:12:39,392 --> 00:12:40,427
(DOOR OPENING)
258
00:12:40,493 --> 00:12:43,440
So, what's the first step?
(DOOR CLOSING)
259
00:12:43,496 --> 00:12:46,170
There's the widow of the fence who
saw Gordon with the stolen goods,
260
00:12:46,232 --> 00:12:49,213
but she left for Arizona the day
after Felder was found dead.
261
00:12:49,269 --> 00:12:51,374
She won't return our calls.
262
00:12:51,738 --> 00:12:54,344
So we convene a grand jury
and issue a subpoena.
263
00:12:56,209 --> 00:12:58,382
I never heard
of this Michael Gordon.
264
00:12:58,478 --> 00:13:00,719
Those people,
Max knew them. I didn't.
265
00:13:00,780 --> 00:13:02,726
That's not what you told
the private detective.
266
00:13:02,782 --> 00:13:05,388
(LAUGHS) When I was drinking!
Whatever I talked about,
267
00:13:05,451 --> 00:13:07,397
I didn't know what
I was talking about.
268
00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:08,990
Are you afraid of Gordon?
269
00:13:09,789 --> 00:13:12,770
Please, I just want to get back
to my grandkids in Tucson.
270
00:13:13,960 --> 00:13:16,304
How long do you think it's going
to take Gordon to figure out
271
00:13:16,362 --> 00:13:18,000
who told Felder about him?
272
00:13:19,365 --> 00:13:21,971
We're the only people
who can protect you.
273
00:13:26,472 --> 00:13:29,419
After that woman was killed,
274
00:13:29,542 --> 00:13:32,216
Max saw it the paper
that this kid, Dupree,
275
00:13:32,278 --> 00:13:33,882
was arrested for the job.
276
00:13:34,981 --> 00:13:36,517
He said the kid didn't do it.
277
00:13:37,216 --> 00:13:40,322
Max never discussed his work.
But this, this he told me.
278
00:13:41,354 --> 00:13:43,595
He said it was this other guy.
279
00:13:43,656 --> 00:13:45,727
This Mike Gordon.
280
00:13:45,959 --> 00:13:47,632
How did your husband know?
281
00:13:48,628 --> 00:13:52,075
He met Gordon at the Blarney
Stone, over on 42nd.
282
00:13:52,565 --> 00:13:54,340
That's where he did business.
283
00:13:54,400 --> 00:13:57,609
And Gordon sold him some jewelry
from this woman's house.
284
00:13:57,670 --> 00:14:01,618
I told Max, I told him, he should
have told the cops when they come by.
285
00:14:03,242 --> 00:14:05,950
But Max said that
Gordon would kill us.
286
00:14:06,312 --> 00:14:07,689
What cops came by?
287
00:14:07,947 --> 00:14:10,621
The ones that were investigating
that woman's murder.
288
00:14:11,718 --> 00:14:14,927
Somebody gave them a tip
that Max knew something.
289
00:14:20,927 --> 00:14:24,272
The Hagen file has a notation the
investigators talked to Max Bronstein,
290
00:14:24,330 --> 00:14:26,435
but there is no report
on the interview,
291
00:14:26,499 --> 00:14:28,775
no follow-up,
no mention of a tip.
292
00:14:29,135 --> 00:14:31,479
Because Ms. Carmichael,
there was no tip.
293
00:14:31,838 --> 00:14:34,978
Judge Wolinsky, the widow was there when
Detective Simpson questioned her husband.
294
00:14:35,274 --> 00:14:37,777
One of the first things
I learned as an A.D.A.,
295
00:14:37,910 --> 00:14:40,516
right after I figured out where
to order my pastrami on rye,
296
00:14:40,580 --> 00:14:42,890
was that witnesses
make mistakes.
297
00:14:43,049 --> 00:14:45,893
Especially about events that
occurred four years ago.
298
00:14:47,387 --> 00:14:48,764
And Michael Gordon?
299
00:14:48,855 --> 00:14:50,926
I don't know if
he killed Martin Felder.
300
00:14:51,090 --> 00:14:53,092
I do know who
killed Dana Hagen.
301
00:14:53,159 --> 00:14:55,036
I prosecuted that gentleman,
302
00:14:55,094 --> 00:14:57,074
and he's sitting on death row.
303
00:15:00,032 --> 00:15:02,535
I talked to Max. He absolutely
had nothing to do with a tip.
304
00:15:02,769 --> 00:15:04,214
I hit every fence I could find.
305
00:15:04,270 --> 00:15:05,681
None of them knew squat.
306
00:15:05,938 --> 00:15:08,578
Did Michael Gordon's
name ever come up?
307
00:15:08,674 --> 00:15:12,816
Look, it's Abbie, right? We got the
guy who killed Hagen, no question.
308
00:15:13,179 --> 00:15:16,991
Dupree even offered to confess if we
took the death penalty off the table.
309
00:15:17,049 --> 00:15:18,722
Then I don't understand,
Detective Simpson.
310
00:15:18,785 --> 00:15:20,492
Why is he sitting on death row?
311
00:15:20,553 --> 00:15:24,831
Wolinsky turned him down. With what we had
on him, we didn't need his confession.
312
00:15:27,326 --> 00:15:30,239
If the lead A.D.A. and the primary
detective say there was no tip...
313
00:15:30,296 --> 00:15:32,105
This was a big case, wasn't it?
314
00:15:32,165 --> 00:15:36,341
A woman beaten to death by a stranger
in her Upper East Side home.
315
00:15:36,402 --> 00:15:38,143
Those guys must have
had their hands full.
316
00:15:38,204 --> 00:15:40,241
Michael Gordon just
fell through the cracks?
317
00:15:40,339 --> 00:15:41,750
Well, I'm not saying
someone goofed.
318
00:15:41,874 --> 00:15:44,514
For all we know, Gordon just
fenced the goods for Dupree.
319
00:15:44,577 --> 00:15:46,523
But until we find him...
320
00:15:47,947 --> 00:15:49,051
Go with God.
321
00:15:50,650 --> 00:15:54,223
I have sheets on every Michael
Gordon in the Tri-State area
322
00:15:54,287 --> 00:15:57,131
with a burglary-related
conviction in last 10 years.
323
00:15:57,356 --> 00:15:58,835
Twenty-three names.
324
00:15:58,891 --> 00:16:01,201
But six of them were doing time
when Dana Hagen was killed,
325
00:16:01,260 --> 00:16:02,261
and two more are dead.
326
00:16:02,695 --> 00:16:04,140
Oh, well, that narrows it down.
327
00:16:04,297 --> 00:16:07,244
Max Bronstein worked out
of a Blarney Stone on 42nd.
328
00:16:07,300 --> 00:16:10,372
Maybe there are some bartenders
there with a good memory for faces.
329
00:16:11,304 --> 00:16:14,080
Yeah, I remember Max. Uh, club
soda when he was working.
330
00:16:14,140 --> 00:16:16,848
Seven-and-seven when
he wasn't. Good tipper.
331
00:16:17,877 --> 00:16:19,481
Bookie right?
A fence.
332
00:16:19,745 --> 00:16:22,885
Really? Five years the guy sat
at my bar, I never knew that.
333
00:16:22,949 --> 00:16:23,984
He in trouble?
334
00:16:24,050 --> 00:16:26,792
Not with us. He died
of cancer last year.
335
00:16:26,853 --> 00:16:27,888
Oh.
336
00:16:27,954 --> 00:16:29,831
I need you to look
at a few pictures.
337
00:16:31,123 --> 00:16:33,364
You ever see any of
these guys with Max?
338
00:16:33,626 --> 00:16:35,902
No face that jumps out at me.
339
00:16:35,962 --> 00:16:37,771
Gordon. Michael Gordon.
340
00:16:37,997 --> 00:16:38,998
Lot of Mikes.
341
00:16:39,866 --> 00:16:40,867
Him I know.
342
00:16:40,967 --> 00:16:41,968
You sure?
343
00:16:42,168 --> 00:16:44,910
Yeah. He and Maxie did
business a couple times.
344
00:16:45,571 --> 00:16:47,050
How long ago?
345
00:16:47,139 --> 00:16:50,143
Ooh. Around the time
the Rangers got Gretzky.
346
00:16:50,276 --> 00:16:52,085
Yeah. Four years ago?
347
00:16:53,446 --> 00:16:57,724
Nice set of lock picks, Mike.
Honed by years of use.
348
00:16:59,519 --> 00:17:01,556
And this little pry bar,
this is nice.
349
00:17:01,621 --> 00:17:03,123
I've been looking
for one just like it.
350
00:17:03,189 --> 00:17:04,634
Where'd you buy it?
351
00:17:04,891 --> 00:17:06,370
I'm gonna wait on my lawyer.
352
00:17:07,426 --> 00:17:10,032
What's he gonna tell you
you don't already know?
353
00:17:11,130 --> 00:17:14,839
This is a parole violation. You're going
back upstate to finish your stretch.
354
00:17:14,901 --> 00:17:16,471
And that's just for openers.
355
00:17:16,535 --> 00:17:18,606
We're putting together
a murder case against you.
356
00:17:18,671 --> 00:17:20,014
Maybe two.
357
00:17:20,273 --> 00:17:22,776
You recognize these people?
You should.
358
00:17:22,975 --> 00:17:25,512
You killed him to cover up
the fact that you killed her.
359
00:17:25,611 --> 00:17:27,284
I didn't kill anybody.
360
00:17:27,847 --> 00:17:29,485
ED: This is from the burglary
at the lady's house.
361
00:17:29,615 --> 00:17:31,458
Dana Hagen,
if you don't remember.
362
00:17:31,584 --> 00:17:35,896
The twist of the alarm wires, three turns,
bent on the side. That's your signature, Mike.
363
00:17:35,988 --> 00:17:37,592
The same with all
your other burglaries.
364
00:17:37,657 --> 00:17:39,762
I know four guys
do it the same way.
365
00:17:41,093 --> 00:17:43,869
I said, I'm gonna
wait on my lawyer.
366
00:17:47,266 --> 00:17:49,507
Forensics went through
Gordon's shoes and clothes.
367
00:17:49,569 --> 00:17:51,913
No blood splatters, no mud
from the tomato patch.
368
00:17:52,004 --> 00:17:54,610
Okay. Start pulling in
Gordon's associates.
369
00:17:54,674 --> 00:17:57,314
Maybe he told them
about Hagen and Felder.
370
00:17:58,211 --> 00:18:01,317
Hey, Abbie, we might be able
to put both bodies on Gordon.
371
00:18:01,380 --> 00:18:03,917
His usual M.O. matches
the Hagen burglary.
372
00:18:04,116 --> 00:18:06,858
He show any signs he might want to talk?
Not yet, but...
373
00:18:08,888 --> 00:18:09,889
Jamie.
374
00:18:11,023 --> 00:18:13,435
Hi.
Hey, look at you.
375
00:18:13,626 --> 00:18:15,867
Hey, Lieutenant. How are you?
Never better.
376
00:18:15,928 --> 00:18:17,703
Uh, this is Abbie Carmichael.
377
00:18:17,797 --> 00:18:20,243
Yes, I've heard of you. Jamie Ross.
I've heard of you, too.
378
00:18:20,433 --> 00:18:22,743
So, what brings you here?
379
00:18:23,102 --> 00:18:24,103
Work.
380
00:18:26,038 --> 00:18:27,039
(KNOCKING ON DOOR)
381
00:18:28,574 --> 00:18:30,451
Hey, you.
Hello, Detective.
382
00:18:31,077 --> 00:18:32,385
What, are you back
with the D.A.s?
383
00:18:32,445 --> 00:18:34,755
No, Ms. Ross is
Mr. Gordon's lawyer.
384
00:18:36,749 --> 00:18:38,023
ROSS: You've been
talking to my client?
385
00:18:38,251 --> 00:18:39,389
Talking at him.
386
00:18:39,552 --> 00:18:41,691
Hadn't he invoked
his right to counsel?
387
00:18:42,889 --> 00:18:45,893
ROSS: Aside from the parole violation, are
there any other charges on the table?
388
00:18:45,992 --> 00:18:47,630
Not at this time.
389
00:18:47,693 --> 00:18:51,402
Well, then I'd like a word with my client,
and you can book him for arraignment.
390
00:18:59,472 --> 00:19:01,975
I don't understand.
I did this four years ago.
391
00:19:02,341 --> 00:19:04,082
We realize it's upsetting.
392
00:19:04,143 --> 00:19:05,247
Upsetting?
393
00:19:06,612 --> 00:19:08,114
It's incomprehensible.
394
00:19:08,714 --> 00:19:10,694
Everyone already knows
who killed my wife.
395
00:19:12,351 --> 00:19:14,388
Please, Mr. Hagen,
we need your cooperation.
396
00:19:23,996 --> 00:19:25,236
You recognize someone?
397
00:19:25,498 --> 00:19:26,943
Ms. Carmichael.
398
00:19:27,533 --> 00:19:29,979
I don't recognize anybody.
It's not any of them.
399
00:19:32,705 --> 00:19:34,013
Can I go now?
400
00:19:34,674 --> 00:19:35,880
Yes, thank you.
401
00:19:40,713 --> 00:19:43,694
Don't be shy. Next time,
just point to my client.
402
00:19:49,689 --> 00:19:50,827
(SIGHING)
403
00:19:51,090 --> 00:19:53,092
CARMICHAEL: He reacted
when he saw Gordon.
404
00:19:53,626 --> 00:19:56,106
It might have dawned on him he
made a mistake four years ago.
405
00:19:56,162 --> 00:19:57,698
Doesn't matter.
406
00:19:57,830 --> 00:19:59,639
Jamie won't give him
another bite at the apple.
407
00:19:59,699 --> 00:20:01,474
How'd she end up
representing Gordon anyhow?
408
00:20:01,634 --> 00:20:02,942
I thought she was teaching.
409
00:20:03,002 --> 00:20:06,245
Well, he's a holdover from before
she joined the D.A.'s office.
410
00:20:06,305 --> 00:20:08,945
He called her, and I guess
she felt some obligation.
411
00:20:09,175 --> 00:20:10,745
She would.
412
00:20:10,810 --> 00:20:12,619
What's the rest
of the case against Gordon?
413
00:20:12,845 --> 00:20:17,191
The similar M.O., the bartender's
I.D., and Max Bronstein's widow.
414
00:20:18,117 --> 00:20:19,994
Coincidence,
circumstance and hearsay.
415
00:20:20,186 --> 00:20:21,722
Enough for an indictment.
416
00:20:22,755 --> 00:20:25,497
Get it. I'll talk
to Jamie about a plea.
417
00:20:25,858 --> 00:20:27,929
Life without parole,
both counts.
418
00:20:28,494 --> 00:20:30,405
The needle stays in the bag.
419
00:20:30,463 --> 00:20:32,500
If you had convincing
evidence on either count,
420
00:20:32,565 --> 00:20:36,377
you wouldn't hesitate to put an upstanding
citizen like Michael Gordon on death row.
421
00:20:36,669 --> 00:20:38,148
Is that a no?
422
00:20:38,337 --> 00:20:41,443
It's an "I'll discuss it with my
client, but I won't recommend it."
423
00:20:41,907 --> 00:20:43,750
The offer won't hold forever.
424
00:20:44,076 --> 00:20:47,057
Once it's gone, you know better than
anybody I'll do everything I can
425
00:20:47,113 --> 00:20:48,922
to strap Gordon to a gurney.
426
00:20:49,181 --> 00:20:51,787
I know what
"everything I can" means.
427
00:20:52,218 --> 00:20:55,392
Then you can impress on your client
that he's dealing with a junkyard dog.
428
00:20:55,454 --> 00:20:57,127
This isn't a team effort, Jack.
429
00:20:57,289 --> 00:20:59,326
I'm not an A.D.A.
anymore.
430
00:21:00,126 --> 00:21:01,127
Uh-huh.
431
00:21:03,796 --> 00:21:04,797
Kosovo?
432
00:21:07,433 --> 00:21:09,242
Yes, this little girl's
father and three brothers
433
00:21:09,301 --> 00:21:11,679
were found in a mass grave
outside Prestina.
434
00:21:11,737 --> 00:21:15,275
We just turned in our final report to
the War Crimes Tribunal last week.
435
00:21:15,741 --> 00:21:17,118
Tough work.
436
00:21:17,743 --> 00:21:21,020
Well, Adam used to say, you clean up
the world one lousy brick at a time.
437
00:21:21,447 --> 00:21:24,485
Michael Gordon's what you
find hiding under the bricks.
438
00:21:25,751 --> 00:21:28,129
You could have fobbed him
off on somebody else.
439
00:21:28,220 --> 00:21:31,360
Some 18-B panel hack?
Not on a capital case.
440
00:21:31,424 --> 00:21:34,234
Well, you'll have something to
talk about with your students.
441
00:21:34,460 --> 00:21:36,098
Let me know
about the plea offer.
442
00:21:37,329 --> 00:21:38,808
End of business day tomorrow.
443
00:21:39,165 --> 00:21:41,441
Have you told Steven Dupree
you have another suspect?
444
00:21:41,801 --> 00:21:42,871
Not yet.
445
00:21:43,235 --> 00:21:45,237
No sense getting his hopes up.
446
00:21:46,138 --> 00:21:48,311
Especially since you might
have to kill him anyway.
447
00:21:51,544 --> 00:21:55,082
Jamie called me back. Her guy won't deal.
You talk to Eric Hagen?
448
00:21:55,181 --> 00:21:58,321
Yeah, he won't budge from his original I.D.
It's Dupree all the way.
449
00:21:58,784 --> 00:22:01,924
Better safe than sorry.
What's all this?
450
00:22:01,987 --> 00:22:04,263
I pulled the complete
Hagen file out of storage.
451
00:22:04,323 --> 00:22:06,462
It was worth
the allergy attack.
452
00:22:06,759 --> 00:22:11,299
Memo from the Bronx, Property Recovery
Unit, Detective Wesley Simpson.
453
00:22:11,630 --> 00:22:15,100
"Please advise regarding disposition
of one white platinum bracelet"
454
00:22:15,167 --> 00:22:16,305
"engraved, 'Love forever'."
455
00:22:16,735 --> 00:22:20,649
List of property stolen from
the Hagen home. Line 12.
456
00:22:24,577 --> 00:22:27,751
One platinum bracelet,
inscription, "Love forever."
457
00:22:31,383 --> 00:22:32,828
Where was the bracelet found?
458
00:22:32,885 --> 00:22:35,889
During a vice squad sweep of
Hunts Point four years ago.
459
00:22:35,955 --> 00:22:38,902
It's been in the Bronx in a
property room ever since.
460
00:22:39,391 --> 00:22:41,837
Anybody find out how
it ended up in Hunts Point?
461
00:22:41,894 --> 00:22:45,842
No indications Detective Simpson or
anyone else followed up on that memo.
462
00:22:47,433 --> 00:22:49,106
Time somebody did.
463
00:22:50,002 --> 00:22:53,779
Yeah, I used to work the Point,
about two lifetimes before this.
464
00:22:54,006 --> 00:22:56,350
You remember being arrested
there four years ago?
465
00:22:56,408 --> 00:22:59,582
You seen my sheet, right? Think you
could keep track of all those busts?
466
00:22:59,645 --> 00:23:01,022
I sure as hell can't.
467
00:23:02,414 --> 00:23:05,452
Jasmine, you're on awaiting
list for a methadone program.
468
00:23:05,518 --> 00:23:07,498
I can get you moved to
the front of that line.
469
00:23:11,357 --> 00:23:13,394
You were arrested
with this bracelet.
470
00:23:13,659 --> 00:23:17,471
Yeah, Mack named Bernard gave it to me.
Some silver-plated crap.
471
00:23:18,164 --> 00:23:20,110
Actually, it was
solid platinum.
472
00:23:20,199 --> 00:23:21,200
No kidding.
473
00:23:22,034 --> 00:23:23,035
Do you know where he got it?
474
00:23:23,102 --> 00:23:25,708
Yeah, from Fat Maxie at a
bar over on Forty-Deuce.
475
00:23:25,838 --> 00:23:27,545
The Blarney Stone.
That one.
476
00:23:28,741 --> 00:23:31,449
The cops who arrested you,
did they ask where you got it?
477
00:23:31,544 --> 00:23:32,989
Yeah, Fat Maxie
what I told 'em.
478
00:23:33,913 --> 00:23:37,952
The bracelet was recovered from the
girl three weeks into Dupree's trial.
479
00:23:38,684 --> 00:23:40,459
You'd already rested your case.
480
00:23:40,553 --> 00:23:42,157
We didn't know
about the bracelet.
481
00:23:43,055 --> 00:23:45,035
The memo about it
was in the file.
482
00:23:45,391 --> 00:23:46,870
The bracelet
corroborated the tip.
483
00:23:47,326 --> 00:23:48,805
Again with this tip.
484
00:23:49,728 --> 00:23:53,608
Andy, we're not alleging
any malfeasance here.
485
00:23:53,766 --> 00:23:55,006
I should hope not.
486
00:23:55,067 --> 00:23:56,705
JACK: This was
a high-profile case.
487
00:23:57,937 --> 00:24:00,042
Death penalty, long hours.
488
00:24:00,706 --> 00:24:03,186
You were invested in
getting Dupree convicted.
489
00:24:03,242 --> 00:24:07,190
My God, Jack, the guy was arrested in
a bar three blocks from the scene.
490
00:24:07,346 --> 00:24:11,123
He was ready to confess. There was
no mistake here, no dereliction.
491
00:24:13,185 --> 00:24:15,722
Whatever happened,
now's the time to undo it.
492
00:24:17,590 --> 00:24:18,967
There's nothing to undo.
493
00:24:19,024 --> 00:24:22,062
Forget that an innocent mean
might be sitting on death row.
494
00:24:22,127 --> 00:24:24,437
Michael Gordon could get
away with two murders.
495
00:24:24,496 --> 00:24:26,601
We need you to confirm
the prostitute's story
496
00:24:26,665 --> 00:24:28,975
and to confirm you had
the tip about Max Bronstein.
497
00:24:29,168 --> 00:24:34,880
These allegations are crap. Dana Hagen
was killed by Steven Dupree, period.
498
00:24:35,674 --> 00:24:36,846
Now, get out.
499
00:24:44,016 --> 00:24:46,018
I put that creep up for office.
500
00:24:46,085 --> 00:24:47,393
This tip,
501
00:24:47,987 --> 00:24:49,864
maybe you ought to find
out where it came from?
502
00:24:50,589 --> 00:24:51,966
After four years?
503
00:24:52,157 --> 00:24:53,465
Four years, four days.
504
00:24:53,525 --> 00:24:56,904
Find the tipster, find a
witness against Mr. Gordon.
505
00:24:58,630 --> 00:25:00,439
From the Department
of Correction.
506
00:25:00,499 --> 00:25:02,809
Gordon's cellmates,
four years ago.
507
00:25:03,569 --> 00:25:06,209
He was at Rikers awaiting
trial on a larceny charge.
508
00:25:06,272 --> 00:25:10,084
What I can't figure out is if
someone wanted to rat out Gordon,
509
00:25:10,275 --> 00:25:12,551
why tip the police
about Max Bronstein?
510
00:25:13,779 --> 00:25:17,022
Maybe they didn't know about Gordon. Maybe
they just knew Bronstein was fencing goods
511
00:25:17,082 --> 00:25:18,254
from the Hagen murder.
512
00:25:18,517 --> 00:25:20,588
I don't think it's something
Bronstein would have bragged about.
513
00:25:20,653 --> 00:25:22,155
Everyone said he was discrete.
514
00:25:22,254 --> 00:25:23,733
Maybe Gordon wasn't.
515
00:25:24,223 --> 00:25:27,329
Then back to my original question.
Why not drop the dime on Gordon?
516
00:25:31,697 --> 00:25:33,699
Maybe they had no choice.
517
00:25:37,036 --> 00:25:40,040
Here you go. The complete
works of Dupree, Steven,
518
00:25:40,105 --> 00:25:41,846
from arraignment to appeals.
519
00:25:41,907 --> 00:25:44,319
Gonna take a little longer
to get the trial transcripts.
520
00:25:44,376 --> 00:25:45,980
All I need is
the sign-out sheet.
521
00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:49,723
It was last signed out
two weeks ago.
522
00:25:49,848 --> 00:25:51,850
It should This go
back four years?
523
00:26:05,898 --> 00:26:07,138
Jamie,
524
00:26:08,100 --> 00:26:09,511
can I have a word?
525
00:26:10,102 --> 00:26:11,877
Hey, Katie, you remember
Mommy's friend, Jack?
526
00:26:12,037 --> 00:26:13,141
Hi, Katie.
527
00:26:13,238 --> 00:26:15,650
Just go on up the steps, and
I'll meet you in a second.
528
00:26:16,175 --> 00:26:18,621
Jack, you look terrible.
What, you sleep in that suit?
529
00:26:18,811 --> 00:26:20,654
You tipped off Andy Wolinsky.
530
00:26:20,946 --> 00:26:22,254
What are you talking about?
531
00:26:22,614 --> 00:26:24,924
Four years ago, you were Gordon's
lawyer on a larceny case.
532
00:26:25,150 --> 00:26:27,130
Somehow, you found out
he killed Dana Hagen.
533
00:26:27,186 --> 00:26:29,291
You had an ethical problem.
You couldn't turn him in.
534
00:26:29,355 --> 00:26:30,698
Jack... You did the
next best thing.
535
00:26:31,256 --> 00:26:33,702
You pointed the police
at his fence,
536
00:26:33,826 --> 00:26:35,396
which should have led
them straight to Gordon.
537
00:26:35,461 --> 00:26:37,998
I cannot discuss... You know
the wrong man's on death row.
538
00:26:41,867 --> 00:26:45,542
Two weeks after you joined the D.A.'s
office you signed out Dupree's file.
539
00:26:45,704 --> 00:26:47,581
What were you doing, checking
the status of his appeal?
540
00:26:47,639 --> 00:26:48,947
I can't have this
conversation with you.
541
00:26:49,008 --> 00:26:50,385
You know Gordon did it,
don't you?
542
00:26:50,442 --> 00:26:51,648
You know it for a fact.
543
00:26:51,710 --> 00:26:54,623
You're gonna stand by and watch Steven
Dupree die for a murder he didn't commit?
544
00:26:54,680 --> 00:26:55,681
Goodbye, Jack.
545
00:26:55,748 --> 00:26:58,024
Jamie, for God's sake, you cared
then, don't you care now?
546
00:27:05,657 --> 00:27:07,193
We found the source of the tip.
547
00:27:07,526 --> 00:27:09,733
That'd be quite a feat,
since I never got a tip.
548
00:27:09,928 --> 00:27:12,374
I can't reveal the name, but
suffice it to say it's a woman.
549
00:27:12,464 --> 00:27:13,772
Another junkie prostitute?
550
00:27:13,866 --> 00:27:16,813
Her credibility's above reproach.
Andy, I'm giving you a chance.
551
00:27:16,869 --> 00:27:19,611
You come after me, you make sure
you don't leave me standing.
552
00:27:19,671 --> 00:27:22,618
I will use the full power
of my office to bury you.
553
00:27:30,916 --> 00:27:33,954
We can't turn this corner unless
Jamie tells us what she knows.
554
00:27:34,119 --> 00:27:37,259
We assume she can't because of attorney-client
privilege. Her hands are tied.
555
00:27:37,389 --> 00:27:38,459
Are they?
556
00:27:39,324 --> 00:27:41,065
I want you to call her.
557
00:27:41,126 --> 00:27:42,799
Set up a meeting with Gordon.
558
00:27:44,930 --> 00:27:46,000
Where's my client?
559
00:27:46,064 --> 00:27:48,635
In the conference room.
I think we should talk first.
560
00:27:49,968 --> 00:27:52,471
I'm going to make
Gordon a final offer.
561
00:27:53,005 --> 00:27:56,145
25-to-life on both
murder counts.
562
00:27:56,775 --> 00:27:57,947
I'll discuss it.
563
00:27:58,744 --> 00:28:00,849
I want you to recommend it.
Based on what?
564
00:28:01,146 --> 00:28:03,752
On the fact that we have
an ironclad case against him.
565
00:28:04,917 --> 00:28:07,397
Do you?
Cards on the table, okay?
566
00:28:07,519 --> 00:28:11,763
Wolinsky refuses to concede that he
put an innocent man on death row.
567
00:28:12,624 --> 00:28:15,798
He won't even acknowledge that
they got the tip about the fence.
568
00:28:16,195 --> 00:28:18,004
Maybe that's because
the tip was a dead end.
569
00:28:18,230 --> 00:28:20,938
It wasn't. There's
independent confirmation.
570
00:28:21,066 --> 00:28:24,445
Max Bronstein fenced some
jewelry from the Hagens.
571
00:28:25,971 --> 00:28:29,475
The bracelet was found during Dupree's trial.
Wolinsky ignored it.
572
00:28:30,742 --> 00:28:34,781
Of course, in itself it's not
enough to prove Dupree's innocence
573
00:28:34,846 --> 00:28:36,484
or your client's guilt.
574
00:28:37,716 --> 00:28:40,162
Only the person who called
in the tip could do that.
575
00:28:41,653 --> 00:28:43,394
Sorry, I can't help you.
576
00:28:43,455 --> 00:28:46,698
I'm not asking you to break the
attorney-client privilege.
577
00:28:47,426 --> 00:28:50,032
But I don't think it would stretch
your ethics too much to recommend
578
00:28:50,095 --> 00:28:51,665
your client take this deal.
579
00:28:51,864 --> 00:28:53,673
Even if I don't think
it's in his best interest?
580
00:28:53,732 --> 00:28:58,340
Your job is to achieve the best
result for your client. You know me.
581
00:28:58,403 --> 00:29:00,576
From here on in, it won't
get any better for him.
582
00:29:01,473 --> 00:29:03,783
You make the offer.
I'll call it the way I see it.
583
00:29:03,842 --> 00:29:04,843
Steven Dupree.
584
00:29:05,077 --> 00:29:07,580
Don't talk to me
about Steven Dupree.
585
00:29:07,646 --> 00:29:09,819
Your office put him in jail.
You get him out.
586
00:29:09,881 --> 00:29:12,418
You know as well as I do that
without proof of his innocence
587
00:29:12,484 --> 00:29:14,259
or an admission of guilt
by your client,
588
00:29:14,319 --> 00:29:17,425
the chances of a court overturning
a jury verdict are next to nil.
589
00:29:17,489 --> 00:29:19,127
That can't be my problem, Jack.
590
00:29:19,191 --> 00:29:21,000
Let's just make
it right, Jamie.
591
00:29:21,460 --> 00:29:24,304
Because, uh, if we're going
to play by the rules,
592
00:29:24,363 --> 00:29:27,242
you already violated
attorney-client privilege
593
00:29:27,299 --> 00:29:29,210
when you tipped off
Wolinsky, and I,
594
00:29:29,268 --> 00:29:33,410
as an officer of the court, I have a duty
to inform the Disciplinary Committee
595
00:29:33,472 --> 00:29:34,974
and your client.
596
00:29:35,307 --> 00:29:36,308
Is that a threat?
597
00:29:36,375 --> 00:29:37,718
Jamie, please.
598
00:29:41,046 --> 00:29:42,423
Just get Gordon
to take the plea.
599
00:29:50,989 --> 00:29:52,400
About time.
600
00:29:52,491 --> 00:29:55,131
I'm gonna be late for
cookies and milk at Rikers.
601
00:29:56,662 --> 00:29:59,199
I have a one-time offer,
Mr. Gordon.
602
00:30:00,265 --> 00:30:03,678
Your plea of guilty for the murders
of Martin Felder and Dana Hagen
603
00:30:04,036 --> 00:30:07,017
in return for concurrent
sentences of 25-to-life.
604
00:30:07,873 --> 00:30:09,352
You have an hour
to make up your mind.
605
00:30:09,408 --> 00:30:11,445
No way.
I want a trial.
606
00:30:12,644 --> 00:30:14,954
Didn't you tell 'em
I want a trial?
607
00:30:16,448 --> 00:30:20,794
I'm sure Ms. Ross will agree, a
trial's not in your best interest.
608
00:30:22,988 --> 00:30:27,664
(SIGHING) Mr. Gordon, I'm resigning as
your counsel, effective immediately.
609
00:30:28,026 --> 00:30:30,404
While representing you,
I violated the code of conduct
610
00:30:30,462 --> 00:30:32,339
and breached our
attorney-client privilege.
611
00:30:32,397 --> 00:30:36,311
I'll be making a full disclosure to
Disciplinary Committee of the New York Bar.
612
00:30:36,702 --> 00:30:38,238
I'll help you
find a new attorney.
613
00:30:38,303 --> 00:30:40,476
In the meantime,
keep your mouth shut.
614
00:30:43,041 --> 00:30:45,954
Anything she tells the Disciplinary
Committee will be kept under seal.
615
00:30:46,011 --> 00:30:49,322
We won't be able to use it against Gordon.
It's brilliant.
616
00:30:49,381 --> 00:30:52,225
I knew there was a reason
I hired that young lady.
617
00:30:52,284 --> 00:30:54,594
You're both enjoying
this, aren't you?
618
00:30:55,353 --> 00:30:58,129
You tried to coerce her
into selling out her client.
619
00:30:58,190 --> 00:31:00,500
Lit your own petard, my boy.
620
00:31:00,559 --> 00:31:04,371
A judge can still compel her to
testify about what Gordon told her.
621
00:31:04,429 --> 00:31:07,638
How? Her conversations
with him are privileged.
622
00:31:07,699 --> 00:31:10,270
Not the ones she divulged
to third parties.
623
00:31:10,936 --> 00:31:12,176
Says you.
624
00:31:15,474 --> 00:31:18,114
Whatever I said during an
anonymous call four years ago
625
00:31:18,176 --> 00:31:21,123
resulted from information I received
from Mr. Gordon. It's privileged.
626
00:31:21,179 --> 00:31:23,955
She broke the privilege herself
when she called Wolinsky.
627
00:31:24,016 --> 00:31:25,495
She can't assert it now.
628
00:31:25,550 --> 00:31:28,394
The privilege belongs to Mr. Gordon.
Unless he waives it.
629
00:31:28,453 --> 00:31:30,592
Your Honor, her anonymous call
630
00:31:30,656 --> 00:31:34,570
contains information crucial to the
prosecution of a capital crime
631
00:31:34,626 --> 00:31:35,832
committed by Gordon.
632
00:31:36,194 --> 00:31:37,935
Just a minute,
Mr. McCoy.
633
00:31:38,096 --> 00:31:41,566
Ms. Ross, this tip
concerned your client?
634
00:31:41,800 --> 00:31:43,302
Yes.
JUDGE: Ms. Ross...
635
00:31:43,702 --> 00:31:45,648
I've already informed
the Disciplinary Committee.
636
00:31:46,071 --> 00:31:47,914
What did you tell
Judge Wolinsky?
637
00:31:47,973 --> 00:31:50,453
That he had charged the wrong man
in the murder of Dana Hagen,
638
00:31:50,509 --> 00:31:53,080
and that a fence named Max
Bronstein had received goods
639
00:31:53,145 --> 00:31:54,681
stolen from the Hagen home.
640
00:31:54,846 --> 00:31:57,884
And you had gotten this information
directly from your client?
641
00:31:57,949 --> 00:32:00,327
Yes, among other details
relating to the Hagen murder.
642
00:32:00,385 --> 00:32:01,864
When I called Wolinsky
the second time,
643
00:32:01,920 --> 00:32:04,560
I essentially repeated
the same information.
644
00:32:04,856 --> 00:32:07,359
You called Wolinsky
again? When?
645
00:32:07,759 --> 00:32:10,433
During Steven Dupree's trial, just
before the case went to jury.
646
00:32:10,495 --> 00:32:14,170
Mr. McCoy, it is obvious anything
Ms. Ross might say in court
647
00:32:14,232 --> 00:32:18,374
would only further breach Mr. Gordon's
attorney-client privilege.
648
00:32:18,970 --> 00:32:22,508
You cannot use her testimony against him.
Your motion is denied.
649
00:32:23,175 --> 00:32:25,985
Your Honor, I want to use her
testimony against a third party.
650
00:32:26,044 --> 00:32:27,182
JUDGE: Who?
651
00:32:27,712 --> 00:32:29,214
Andrew Wolinsky.
652
00:32:29,915 --> 00:32:32,452
The People plan to bring
charges of attempted murder.
653
00:32:32,517 --> 00:32:34,121
Against Judge Wolinsky?
654
00:32:34,186 --> 00:32:35,529
Yes.
655
00:32:35,587 --> 00:32:37,828
Ms. Ross testifies
against him.
656
00:32:37,889 --> 00:32:39,562
Nothing she says can be
used against Gordon.
657
00:32:39,624 --> 00:32:40,762
Your Honor...
JUDGE: Ms. Ross.
658
00:32:43,562 --> 00:32:45,439
On that limited basis,
659
00:32:47,199 --> 00:32:49,201
I don't see a problem.
660
00:32:49,334 --> 00:32:51,814
I'm issuing an order
for your testimony.
661
00:32:52,204 --> 00:32:55,549
And I sure hope you know what
you're doing, Mr. McCoy.
662
00:32:57,209 --> 00:32:59,746
BRISCOE: Judge Wolinsky,
you mind coming with us?
663
00:32:59,811 --> 00:33:00,915
What? What for?
664
00:33:00,979 --> 00:33:04,188
You're under arrest for the
attempted murder of Steven Dupree.
665
00:33:04,249 --> 00:33:05,592
What is this, a joke?
No, Your Honor.
666
00:33:05,650 --> 00:33:07,926
We'll have to ask you
to remove the robe.
667
00:33:09,421 --> 00:33:12,493
Call Helen Brolin.
Her number's in my Rolodex.
668
00:33:12,691 --> 00:33:14,295
You have the right
to remain silent.
669
00:33:14,359 --> 00:33:16,430
Anything you do say can, and
will be used against you...
670
00:33:19,197 --> 00:33:20,471
ADAM: What in the world
were you thinking?
671
00:33:20,532 --> 00:33:22,307
What was Wolinsky thinking?
672
00:33:22,934 --> 00:33:26,905
Jamie called him twice. The second time
after they found the Hagen bracelet.
673
00:33:27,005 --> 00:33:28,985
It'll be her word
against Wolinsky's.
674
00:33:29,040 --> 00:33:31,042
Just because the grand
jury believed her...
675
00:33:31,109 --> 00:33:33,612
I haven't indicted him yet. I'm
hoping Wolinsky will spare himself
676
00:33:33,678 --> 00:33:34,918
the embarrassment and fold.
677
00:33:34,980 --> 00:33:36,050
And then?
678
00:33:36,114 --> 00:33:38,094
And then give me what I
need to convict Gordon.
679
00:33:38,183 --> 00:33:39,321
Oh.
680
00:33:40,185 --> 00:33:43,598
So you don't think that Wolinsky
committed attempted murder?
681
00:33:43,655 --> 00:33:45,464
Yes, he ignored evidence.
682
00:33:45,590 --> 00:33:47,399
He had reason to believe
Dupree was innocent,
683
00:33:47,459 --> 00:33:49,166
and he still sent
him to death row.
684
00:33:49,461 --> 00:33:51,463
A jury might see that
as attempted murder.
685
00:33:51,529 --> 00:33:53,634
They might never see it at all.
686
00:33:54,366 --> 00:33:57,142
Wolinsky just filed
for a preliminary hearing.
687
00:33:57,202 --> 00:33:58,681
He just has to convince a judge
688
00:33:58,737 --> 00:34:01,217
there isn't sufficient evidence
to sustain the charge.
689
00:34:01,306 --> 00:34:03,013
So a fellow judge
690
00:34:03,608 --> 00:34:06,020
will decide
Judge Wolinsky's fate.
691
00:34:07,813 --> 00:34:09,759
Is that what you
meant by folding?
692
00:34:12,617 --> 00:34:14,756
JAMIE: During one of our
meetings four years ago,
693
00:34:14,819 --> 00:34:17,425
Mr. Gordon boasted that
he'd killed Dana Hagen.
694
00:34:17,589 --> 00:34:19,626
The case was in the
papers at the time.
695
00:34:20,192 --> 00:34:22,297
Mr. Gordon provided details.
696
00:34:22,360 --> 00:34:26,001
He even named the person he used to fence
jewelry stolen from the Hagen home.
697
00:34:26,198 --> 00:34:29,145
I confirmed enough of his information
to know he was telling the truth.
698
00:34:29,201 --> 00:34:30,544
What did you do then?
699
00:34:30,602 --> 00:34:32,775
I tried persuading him
to come forward,
700
00:34:32,838 --> 00:34:34,283
but he refused.
701
00:34:34,940 --> 00:34:37,045
I wasn't sure
what to do next. I...
702
00:34:37,109 --> 00:34:39,680
I knew I had an
obligation to Mr. Gordon,
703
00:34:40,378 --> 00:34:42,881
but I felt what I can only
describe as a higher duty
704
00:34:42,948 --> 00:34:45,053
to prevent a miscarriage
of justice.
705
00:34:45,584 --> 00:34:48,622
I called the Bar Association's
ethics hotline for guidance.
706
00:34:48,687 --> 00:34:49,825
JACK: What did
they tell you?
707
00:34:49,888 --> 00:34:52,300
JAMIE: That my safest course
of action was to do nothing.
708
00:34:53,391 --> 00:34:55,166
But I couldn't accept that.
709
00:34:55,827 --> 00:34:58,137
That's when I placed an anonymous
call to Andrew Wolinsky.
710
00:34:58,363 --> 00:34:59,842
JACK: What did
you tell him?
711
00:34:59,898 --> 00:35:01,969
(SIGHING) I didn't want
to implicate my client,
712
00:35:02,033 --> 00:35:05,503
but I wanted to give just enough
information to clear Mr. Dupree.
713
00:35:05,637 --> 00:35:08,880
So, I told Mr. Wolinsky that
Steven Dupree was innocent.
714
00:35:09,007 --> 00:35:12,580
I told him about the fence, Max
Bronstein, about the stolen jewelry.
715
00:35:12,978 --> 00:35:15,117
JACK: How did
Mr. Wolinsky respond?
716
00:35:15,280 --> 00:35:18,921
He took down Max Bronstein's
name, thanked me, and hung up.
717
00:35:18,984 --> 00:35:20,258
Did you follow up?
718
00:35:20,318 --> 00:35:24,266
Yes. A few weeks later, after
Mr. Dupree's case had proceeded to trial,
719
00:35:24,322 --> 00:35:26,825
I called
Mr. Wolinsky again.
720
00:35:26,892 --> 00:35:30,339
I remember it was the day just
before the summations. August 20th.
721
00:35:30,428 --> 00:35:34,672
Did you know that by that time Dana
Hagen's bracelet had been recovered
722
00:35:34,733 --> 00:35:36,713
and traced to Max Bronstein?
723
00:35:36,768 --> 00:35:37,872
No.
724
00:35:37,936 --> 00:35:40,940
What did you tell
Mr. Wolinsky on August 20th?
725
00:35:41,006 --> 00:35:43,247
I repeated what I told
him the first time.
726
00:35:43,608 --> 00:35:46,145
I offered to give
him more information.
727
00:35:46,478 --> 00:35:48,082
I was ready
to go out on a limb.
728
00:35:48,146 --> 00:35:50,183
What did Mr. Wolinsky say?
729
00:35:52,050 --> 00:35:54,087
He said that he
was a very busy man.
730
00:35:54,552 --> 00:35:57,260
That it was a crime to provide
false information to the police.
731
00:35:57,889 --> 00:35:59,596
And then, he hung up on me.
732
00:36:00,225 --> 00:36:01,397
Thank you.
733
00:36:03,695 --> 00:36:06,835
Did you tape these calls?
Keep any phone records?
734
00:36:07,232 --> 00:36:08,506
No.
735
00:36:09,200 --> 00:36:10,577
So all we have is your word.
736
00:36:10,635 --> 00:36:13,411
Why would I admit violating
the code of conduct?
737
00:36:13,872 --> 00:36:15,112
Good question.
738
00:36:16,975 --> 00:36:19,080
Since you left the District
Attorney's Office,
739
00:36:19,144 --> 00:36:22,216
you've done pro bono work for the
Southern Poverty Law Center.
740
00:36:22,280 --> 00:36:23,520
Yes, some work.
741
00:36:23,581 --> 00:36:26,391
They're an anti-death penalty
advocacy group, aren't they?
742
00:36:26,451 --> 00:36:28,260
JAMIE: That's only one
aspect of their work.
743
00:36:29,020 --> 00:36:31,022
Are you opposed
to the death penalty?
744
00:36:31,089 --> 00:36:32,568
Objection. Relevance.
745
00:36:32,624 --> 00:36:33,796
Goes to credibility.
746
00:36:33,858 --> 00:36:36,600
Overruled. Answer her
question, Ms. Ross.
747
00:36:36,861 --> 00:36:38,863
Yes, I'm opposed
to the death penalty.
748
00:36:38,930 --> 00:36:40,534
Did you always feel this way?
749
00:36:40,599 --> 00:36:41,805
No.
750
00:36:42,100 --> 00:36:43,602
What changed your mind?
751
00:36:45,570 --> 00:36:49,040
When I worked at the D.A's office,
I saw the death penalty applied.
752
00:36:52,711 --> 00:36:54,657
A.D.A's are overworked.
753
00:36:54,913 --> 00:36:56,449
They're competitive.
754
00:36:56,581 --> 00:36:59,892
They often act out of their own
prejudices or personal hurts.
755
00:36:59,951 --> 00:37:03,057
What they think the politics
demands They make mistakes.
756
00:37:03,154 --> 00:37:04,531
Errors of judgment.
757
00:37:05,624 --> 00:37:07,535
The death penalty is final.
758
00:37:07,826 --> 00:37:10,500
It eliminates any chance
of correcting those mistakes.
759
00:37:10,562 --> 00:37:11,836
How moving.
760
00:37:12,063 --> 00:37:15,340
And how fortunate you stumbled across
a perfect example of your thesis.
761
00:37:15,433 --> 00:37:19,404
I didn't make up what Michael Gordon told me.
I wouldn't lie.
762
00:37:19,571 --> 00:37:21,346
You're St. Joan
of Hogan Place.
763
00:37:21,406 --> 00:37:23,647
You are moved by a
call to a higher duty.
764
00:37:23,708 --> 00:37:26,052
It allows you to violate
Mr. Gordon's confidence.
765
00:37:26,111 --> 00:37:27,249
That's not what I meant.
766
00:37:27,312 --> 00:37:28,757
Why wouldn't it
allow you to lie?
767
00:37:28,813 --> 00:37:31,259
I didn't lie. You lied
to Michael Gordon.
768
00:37:31,316 --> 00:37:33,762
You told him you'd keep his
confidences, didn't you?
769
00:37:36,187 --> 00:37:37,291
Yes.
770
00:37:37,355 --> 00:37:38,493
You lie when it suits you.
771
00:37:38,857 --> 00:37:41,201
You change opinions
the way I change blouses.
772
00:37:41,259 --> 00:37:42,897
You flit from one
cause to another.
773
00:37:42,994 --> 00:37:44,098
Objection.
Why should we
774
00:37:44,162 --> 00:37:46,164
believe anything
you tell this court?
775
00:37:46,231 --> 00:37:48,177
Ms. Brolin, you
made your point.
776
00:37:49,868 --> 00:37:51,939
Then no more
questions, Your Honor.
777
00:37:54,973 --> 00:37:56,111
(SIGHING)
778
00:37:59,110 --> 00:38:01,613
I worked on the Hagen case
for nearly 18 months.
779
00:38:01,680 --> 00:38:03,717
I spoke with
dozens of witnesses,
780
00:38:03,782 --> 00:38:05,523
read over 100 police reports,
781
00:38:05,583 --> 00:38:08,120
and received I don't know
how many phone calls.
782
00:38:08,186 --> 00:38:12,259
But I don't remember getting any calls
like the ones Ms. Ross described.
783
00:38:12,324 --> 00:38:14,133
Did you receive
any tips at all?
784
00:38:14,192 --> 00:38:15,330
Not personally, no.
785
00:38:15,827 --> 00:38:17,067
But the police did.
786
00:38:17,128 --> 00:38:21,235
Cases like these always generate a
lot of tips, most of them false.
787
00:38:21,833 --> 00:38:25,747
If there had been any that led anywhere,
I'm sure the police would have told me.
788
00:38:26,404 --> 00:38:27,644
Now, Judge,
789
00:38:28,440 --> 00:38:30,750
as you sit here
today under oath,
790
00:38:31,476 --> 00:38:34,252
are you still convinced you put
the right man on death row
791
00:38:34,312 --> 00:38:35,814
for the murder of Dana Hagen?
792
00:38:36,548 --> 00:38:39,495
Yes. Without a doubt,
absolutely.
793
00:38:40,218 --> 00:38:41,356
Thank you.
794
00:38:46,558 --> 00:38:48,333
So I guess you
don't make mistakes.
795
00:38:48,393 --> 00:38:50,805
(SCOFFS) Not in this case, no.
796
00:38:51,396 --> 00:38:54,775
What about the bracelet that sat on a
shelf in the Bronx for four years?
797
00:38:55,100 --> 00:38:58,104
I was unaware of that until you
brought it to my attention.
798
00:38:58,169 --> 00:39:01,946
If you weren't aware, whose fault is that?
The police?
799
00:39:02,540 --> 00:39:03,985
I suppose so.
800
00:39:04,509 --> 00:39:06,750
If that lead wasn't followed,
801
00:39:07,178 --> 00:39:09,158
again, that's the fault
of the police?
802
00:39:09,280 --> 00:39:11,590
If it was a
legitimate lead, yes.
803
00:39:12,350 --> 00:39:14,296
It's up to them
to investigate it.
804
00:39:14,919 --> 00:39:19,425
But my guess is Mr. Dupree disposed of
the bracelet before he was arrested.
805
00:39:19,557 --> 00:39:22,766
But since the investigating detectives
didn't do their job, we'll never know.
806
00:39:22,827 --> 00:39:24,033
It's moot.
807
00:39:24,562 --> 00:39:27,133
Dupree was identified
by the victim's husband.
808
00:39:27,265 --> 00:39:29,802
As a former prosecutor,
you're aware of the studies
809
00:39:29,868 --> 00:39:32,212
documenting the unreliability
of eyewitnesses?
810
00:39:32,270 --> 00:39:33,374
Yes.
811
00:39:33,438 --> 00:39:36,908
JACK: Mr. Hagen got a quick glimpse
of the suspect on a dark street.
812
00:39:37,042 --> 00:39:38,817
He might have
been mistaken, yes?
813
00:39:38,877 --> 00:39:40,151
It's possible.
814
00:39:40,311 --> 00:39:43,781
But you're forgetting the fact that
Mr. Dupree offered to confess.
815
00:39:43,848 --> 00:39:45,691
On the advice of his attorney,
and only if you took
816
00:39:45,750 --> 00:39:47,058
the death penalty
off the table.
817
00:39:47,152 --> 00:39:48,256
Yes.
818
00:39:48,319 --> 00:39:50,230
If it turns out
that he is innocent,
819
00:39:50,288 --> 00:39:51,892
his lawyer gave him bad advice.
820
00:39:52,657 --> 00:39:53,863
I'd say so.
821
00:39:54,159 --> 00:39:55,968
In the unlikely event
he's innocent.
822
00:39:56,027 --> 00:39:59,474
If he is, his conviction is the
result of terrible mistakes
823
00:39:59,531 --> 00:40:01,670
by the police,
by Mr. Hagen,
824
00:40:01,833 --> 00:40:03,710
by Dupree's attorney,
by Dupree himself.
825
00:40:03,768 --> 00:40:07,045
By everyone except you,
because you don't mistakes.
826
00:40:07,105 --> 00:40:09,585
Isn't that what you're saying?
No, no, no, no, no.
827
00:40:10,074 --> 00:40:12,577
If the evidence had been there,
I would have looked into it.
828
00:40:12,644 --> 00:40:15,716
You were afraid to. You were to
about deliver your summation.
829
00:40:15,780 --> 00:40:17,691
Dupree had to be your guy.
830
00:40:17,782 --> 00:40:19,625
That's not true.
Three days
831
00:40:19,684 --> 00:40:22,358
after Dupree was
sentenced to death,
832
00:40:22,420 --> 00:40:26,163
didn't you ask Adam Schiff to put
your name up for a judgeship?
833
00:40:28,159 --> 00:40:29,502
Yes or no?
834
00:40:29,894 --> 00:40:31,032
Yes.
835
00:40:31,129 --> 00:40:33,541
Dupree's conviction was
your ticket to the bench.
836
00:40:33,732 --> 00:40:34,870
No.
837
00:40:34,933 --> 00:40:38,107
Isn't that why you turned down
his offer of a confession?
838
00:40:38,169 --> 00:40:39,443
No.
Isn't that why
839
00:40:39,504 --> 00:40:41,415
you ignored
Ms. Rose's phone calls?
840
00:40:41,506 --> 00:40:44,180
ANDREW: No, I didn't... JACK:
Because it wasn't a mistake?
841
00:40:44,909 --> 00:40:48,379
You placed your ambition
above a man's life.
842
00:40:48,446 --> 00:40:51,484
I know down to my bones
that Steven Dupree is guilty.
843
00:40:51,549 --> 00:40:53,028
You'll never convince
me otherwise.
844
00:40:53,184 --> 00:40:54,959
We start second
guessing ourselves,
845
00:40:55,019 --> 00:40:57,932
pretty soon the public starts
second guessing the process.
846
00:40:57,989 --> 00:41:01,493
And society won't tolerate that.
It needs the certainty of justice.
847
00:41:01,559 --> 00:41:03,095
JACK: Your Honor...
You look at the facts,
848
00:41:03,161 --> 00:41:05,767
you decide on a course of action,
and then you stick to it.
849
00:41:05,897 --> 00:41:08,468
That is how
I work, Mr. McCoy!
850
00:41:10,168 --> 00:41:11,943
That is how we all work.
851
00:41:22,180 --> 00:41:24,091
JUDGE:
Given the record before me,
852
00:41:24,382 --> 00:41:27,522
I see no credible reason to
reject Ms. Rose's testimony.
853
00:41:27,585 --> 00:41:29,861
That being said, let me add,
854
00:41:30,288 --> 00:41:33,758
in the heat of atrial,
details can be overlooked.
855
00:41:34,292 --> 00:41:37,239
We all wish the
administration of justice
856
00:41:37,295 --> 00:41:39,935
could have been
more diligent. However,
857
00:41:40,532 --> 00:41:42,534
I see no evidence
858
00:41:43,134 --> 00:41:46,877
of a crucial element of a
crime of attempted murder.
859
00:41:47,071 --> 00:41:50,575
I see no evidence of intent.
860
00:41:50,942 --> 00:41:52,683
If Judge Wolinsky
861
00:41:52,777 --> 00:41:56,782
committed any wrong, it was a
crime of arrogance, not design.
862
00:41:57,882 --> 00:42:01,420
Therefore, I find insufficient evidence
to allow this matter to proceed.
863
00:42:01,486 --> 00:42:04,023
The charge is dismissed.
(BANGS GAVEL)
864
00:42:22,407 --> 00:42:24,751
Mr. McCoy, anywhere we can talk?
865
00:42:29,113 --> 00:42:30,990
What is it you
wanted to tell us?
866
00:42:31,049 --> 00:42:32,824
Bronx vice sent over
the hooker's bracelet
867
00:42:32,884 --> 00:42:34,227
in the middle
of Dupree's trial.
868
00:42:34,285 --> 00:42:36,026
I had it tested for prints.
869
00:42:36,087 --> 00:42:39,034
We found Max Bronstein
and Michael Gordon's.
870
00:42:39,524 --> 00:42:40,969
Did Wolinsky know?
Uh-huh.
871
00:42:41,025 --> 00:42:42,527
I showed him the report.
872
00:42:42,627 --> 00:42:44,470
He asked me if I still
thought Dupree did it.
873
00:42:44,529 --> 00:42:47,100
I... I told him I'd have a
hard time finding him guilty.
874
00:42:47,165 --> 00:42:48,701
Wolinsky said he wouldn't.
875
00:42:48,766 --> 00:42:50,143
CARMICHAEL:
What did you do?
876
00:42:50,201 --> 00:42:53,080
Wolinsky told me to wipe off the
bracelet and send it back to the Bronx.
877
00:42:53,171 --> 00:42:55,811
He wanted all copies
of the fingerprint report.
878
00:42:55,873 --> 00:42:59,082
And that's how the police screwed
up and let old Andy Wolinsky down.
879
00:42:59,811 --> 00:43:01,916
Did you keep
a copy of the report?
880
00:43:04,716 --> 00:43:07,492
No. But there was one
I couldn't get rid of.
881
00:43:09,287 --> 00:43:11,494
This report was
in Latent's files.
882
00:43:11,556 --> 00:43:13,001
Now it's in ours.
883
00:43:20,198 --> 00:43:22,769
You still want atrial, Mr. Gordon?
It's your right.
884
00:43:22,834 --> 00:43:26,941
Well, defense's exhibit one is
Steven Dupree's conviction.
885
00:43:27,005 --> 00:43:30,418
Which I guarantee will be voided by
the time your client comes to trial.
886
00:43:35,079 --> 00:43:38,686
The offer is still 25-to-life for
Dana Hagen and Martin Felder.
887
00:43:41,986 --> 00:43:45,798
I want to remind you you'll be facing
the death penalty for Martin Felder.
888
00:43:49,193 --> 00:43:50,331
I'll take it.
889
00:43:54,332 --> 00:43:56,005
I'll do the quarter.
890
00:44:10,081 --> 00:44:11,560
Gordon pleaded out.
891
00:44:12,150 --> 00:44:13,390
I heard.
892
00:44:15,286 --> 00:44:18,790
We re-filed against Wolinsky.
Let's see what happens.
893
00:44:22,060 --> 00:44:24,438
The committee
ask you to testify?
894
00:44:25,430 --> 00:44:26,636
No.
895
00:44:30,601 --> 00:44:33,081
(SIGHING) Last time I was
here, it wasn't by choice.
896
00:44:33,137 --> 00:44:35,139
I hated the...
It's okay.
897
00:44:35,973 --> 00:44:38,613
Whatever you told them,
it softened the blow.
898
00:44:42,714 --> 00:44:44,557
Life's a funny old dog, isn't it?
(CHUCKLES)
899
00:44:49,053 --> 00:44:50,828
I'm scared, Jack.
900
00:44:51,956 --> 00:44:53,697
I love the law.
901
00:44:53,747 --> 00:44:58,297
