the police

and the district attorneys
who prosecute the offenders.

00:00:11,545 --> 00:00:13,252
These are their stories.
6
00:00:14,248 --> 00:00:17,195
I'm telling you,
this is a sweet deal. Right.
7
00:00:17,251 --> 00:00:19,754
Well... Well, last week's deal
was very sweet too, but this one

we're only offering to a few very
special clients, Mrs. Skolnick.

The price-earnings ratio,
okay.

00:00:31,999 --> 00:00:33,103
It's a bit high.

HARDWICK: Shooter came in
through the front.
22
00:00:52,252 --> 00:00:53,856
Put a .38
in the receptionist.

00:00:53,921 --> 00:00:54,956
How's she doing?
24
00:00:55,022 --> 00:00:56,558
Last word, in surgery.
25
00:00:56,623 --> 00:00:57,624
Then what?
26
00:00:57,691 --> 00:00:59,295
Headed this way.
27
00:01:01,595 --> 00:01:03,131
Went straight to this office.
28
00:01:03,196 --> 00:01:05,107
Sean Alvarez. Twenty-four.
29
00:01:05,165 --> 00:01:06,439
There were closer offices.
30
00:01:06,500 --> 00:01:08,980
Guy was the target.
Then where'd he go?
31
00:01:09,069 --> 00:01:10,139
Out that fire exit.

for a lunatic.

My ex-wife's living proof.
34
00:01:15,342 --> 00:01:16,616
What about Alvarez?
35
00:01:16,677 --> 00:01:19,817
Took two shots to the chest. Still
had the strength to go for help.
36
00:01:19,880 --> 00:01:21,791
BRISCOE: And who's
Mutt and Jeff there?
37
00:01:21,848 --> 00:01:24,852
Slick guy's Bruce Valentine.
Kid's supervisor.
38
00:01:25,018 --> 00:01:27,555
Other one's Braddock.
As in Braddock and Todd.
39
00:01:27,621 --> 00:01:28,827
Thanks.
40
00:01:30,924 --> 00:01:32,460
BRISCOE: Detectives Briscoe
and Green.
41
00:01:32,526 --> 00:01:35,530
Carl Braddock.
This is crazy. Just crazy.
42
00:01:35,796 --> 00:01:37,207
What can you tell us about him?
43
00:01:37,264 --> 00:01:38,504
Well, he was one of my brokers.
44
00:01:38,565 --> 00:01:40,511
How long had he been here?
Year and a half.
45
00:01:40,567 --> 00:01:41,568
Any problems?
46
00:01:41,635 --> 00:01:43,444
No, actually he was
leaving next month.
47
00:01:43,503 --> 00:01:45,141
Why was that?
48
00:01:45,305 --> 00:01:46,875
Greener pastures, I guess.
49
00:01:46,940 --> 00:01:49,477
It's tough to hold on
to these kids these days.
50
00:01:49,543 --> 00:01:52,114
We're gonna need a list of everyone
that was on the floor at the time.
51
00:01:52,179 --> 00:01:53,180
Of course.
52
00:01:53,246 --> 00:01:55,157
BRISCOE: And we'll need
a list of his clients.
53
00:01:55,215 --> 00:01:56,319
For what purpose?
54
00:01:56,383 --> 00:01:58,420
For the purpose
of finding out who shot him.
55
00:01:58,485 --> 00:02:00,396
Well, I can't let you go
on a fishing expedition
56
00:02:00,454 --> 00:02:03,230
through our clients' financial
records without a warrant.
57
00:02:03,290 --> 00:02:07,397
Come back with something more specific
and I'd be happy to cooperate.
58
00:02:07,527 --> 00:02:08,631
Count on it.
59
00:02:08,695 --> 00:02:10,675
BRADDOCK: Would you
excuse us now?
60
00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:14,504
Kid was leaving in a month.
61
00:02:14,568 --> 00:02:16,445
Yeah. Not soon enough.
62
00:03:10,791 --> 00:03:12,270
Who did this?
63
00:03:13,026 --> 00:03:15,768
We were hoping you could
help us with that.
64
00:03:15,829 --> 00:03:18,070
Can you think of any reason why
someone might have done this to him?
65
00:03:19,066 --> 00:03:20,943
Our son was just
starting out in life.
66
00:03:21,001 --> 00:03:22,810
What reason could there be?
67
00:03:22,869 --> 00:03:24,712
What about his job?
Any problems there?
68
00:03:25,539 --> 00:03:27,917
Sean used to pick stocks
from the newspaper.
69
00:03:27,974 --> 00:03:30,545
This job at the brokerage was
a dream come true for him.
70
00:03:30,610 --> 00:03:31,918
We heard he was leaving
in a month.
71
00:03:33,313 --> 00:03:34,815
He never mentioned anything.
72
00:03:34,881 --> 00:03:36,918
So you know nothing about that?
73
00:03:36,983 --> 00:03:38,018
No.
74
00:03:38,118 --> 00:03:40,359
MR. ALVAREZ: Maybe you
should talk to Ianna.
75
00:03:40,654 --> 00:03:41,792
Ianna?
76
00:03:41,855 --> 00:03:44,426
Ianna Mercer.
She's Sean's fianc?e.
77
00:03:44,491 --> 00:03:46,266
They're getting married.
78
00:03:46,326 --> 00:03:47,600
I mean...
79
00:03:48,095 --> 00:03:49,438
I'm sorry.
80
00:03:49,596 --> 00:03:51,405
I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
81
00:03:52,866 --> 00:03:54,607
I just talked to Carmichael.
82
00:03:54,668 --> 00:03:56,944
She says no judge
will sign a subpoena
83
00:03:57,003 --> 00:04:00,041
for the customer list
based on what we have so far.
84
00:04:00,107 --> 00:04:01,313
How are they?
85
00:04:01,374 --> 00:04:02,512
Couldn't tell us much.
86
00:04:02,576 --> 00:04:05,079
I wonder why he never told
them he was leaving the firm.
87
00:04:05,145 --> 00:04:06,351
Maybe it was a surprise.
88
00:04:06,413 --> 00:04:07,585
Wouldn't you want to
tell your parents
89
00:04:07,647 --> 00:04:09,422
if you had good news
about your job?
90
00:04:09,483 --> 00:04:10,791
His parents would never
believe him.
91
00:04:10,851 --> 00:04:11,886
Oh!
92
00:04:11,952 --> 00:04:14,762
Well, talk to the fianc?e.
Maybe she knows.
93
00:04:17,691 --> 00:04:18,829
Everything was going fine.
94
00:04:18,892 --> 00:04:20,872
ED: He didn't seem
nervous about work?
95
00:04:20,927 --> 00:04:21,962
No.
96
00:04:22,496 --> 00:04:24,407
I mean, I think Sean
really liked it.
97
00:04:24,464 --> 00:04:25,534
Then why was he leaving?
98
00:04:25,599 --> 00:04:29,843
I think he just felt like he'd already
learned what he needed to know.
99
00:04:30,470 --> 00:04:33,314
Sean said that he had
some ideas about the Internet
100
00:04:33,373 --> 00:04:36,377
and that he just wanted to take some
time to figure out his next step.
101
00:04:36,476 --> 00:04:37,853
He could afford to do that?
102
00:04:37,911 --> 00:04:40,323
He had said he'd done pretty
well working for Mr. Valentine.
103
00:04:42,382 --> 00:04:45,261
This is a difficult question
to ask, Ms. Mercer,
104
00:04:45,318 --> 00:04:50,290
but is there any chance there was
another boyfriend in the picture?
105
00:04:50,357 --> 00:04:52,098
Maybe a jealous ex?
106
00:04:52,526 --> 00:04:55,473
Sean and I were gonna
be married this summer.
107
00:04:56,363 --> 00:04:57,865
There was no one else.
108
00:04:58,532 --> 00:05:00,068
You understand we have to ask.
109
00:05:02,969 --> 00:05:06,712
Look, maybe you should talk to
this one guy there. Randy Kush.
110
00:05:06,773 --> 00:05:09,947
He and Sean would grab a drink
after work sometimes.
111
00:05:10,343 --> 00:05:13,153
Look, my bosses wouldn't be too happy
with me talking to you guys like this.
112
00:05:13,213 --> 00:05:15,750
I mean, it's not exactly the
kind of PR they're looking for.
113
00:05:15,816 --> 00:05:19,161
Oh, don't worry, you'll be back
at your Rolodex in no time.
114
00:05:19,219 --> 00:05:21,358
Sean worked retail.
I'm in munis.
115
00:05:21,421 --> 00:05:22,764
I'm not sure what I'm gonna
be able to tell you.
116
00:05:22,823 --> 00:05:25,804
His fianc?e said you guys used to grab
drinks together. Discuss futures.
117
00:05:25,859 --> 00:05:27,338
Yeah. We just thought
it was never too early
118
00:05:27,394 --> 00:05:28,702
to establish alliances,
you know?
119
00:05:28,762 --> 00:05:30,708
Alliances? Sounds like
a pretty ruthless place.
120
00:05:30,764 --> 00:05:33,506
Well, there's certain rules when
it comes to making money, right?
121
00:05:33,567 --> 00:05:35,638
Well, what rules
did Sean break?
122
00:05:36,403 --> 00:05:39,009
Guy was an animal.
Just went after it.
123
00:05:39,706 --> 00:05:41,014
Sean wanted to be
a market maker.
124
00:05:41,074 --> 00:05:42,644
Someone like Valentine,
you know?
125
00:05:42,709 --> 00:05:45,918
With a network of customers who can
create their own market for a stock.
126
00:05:46,746 --> 00:05:49,226
He just kept bringing Valentine
coffee until he gave Sean a shot.
127
00:05:49,282 --> 00:05:50,352
A shot at what?
128
00:05:50,417 --> 00:05:52,488
IPO's. That's where
the real money's at.
129
00:05:52,552 --> 00:05:53,553
What was Sean working on?
130
00:05:54,754 --> 00:05:55,858
Tell ya, I don't know.
131
00:05:56,690 --> 00:05:58,692
We check your mom
and dad's records,
132
00:05:58,792 --> 00:06:01,295
we're gonna find some of
these stocks, right, Randy?
133
00:06:01,361 --> 00:06:02,499
ED: It's called
insider trading.
134
00:06:02,562 --> 00:06:03,939
Okay. Okay.
135
00:06:04,231 --> 00:06:07,769
Last thing Sean told me about was a
stock called Healthroad2000.com.
136
00:06:07,834 --> 00:06:09,541
Some medical Internet thing.
137
00:06:09,603 --> 00:06:11,605
He said Valentine was working
a pump and dump.
138
00:06:12,172 --> 00:06:13,549
Pump and dump?
139
00:06:13,607 --> 00:06:15,609
Buy it. Hype it. Dump it.
140
00:06:16,076 --> 00:06:17,077
Thanks.
141
00:06:20,046 --> 00:06:22,390
Okay. Healthroad2000.com.
142
00:06:22,449 --> 00:06:23,519
Company's a year old.
143
00:06:23,583 --> 00:06:26,223
With a P and E ratio
of 1000-to-one.
144
00:06:26,286 --> 00:06:27,526
Clearly, no profits.
145
00:06:27,587 --> 00:06:29,726
Stock still went
from $4 to $48 a share
146
00:06:29,890 --> 00:06:31,130
in the first nine days
of trading.
147
00:06:31,191 --> 00:06:34,536
We lose money on every sale,
but we make it up in volume.
148
00:06:34,594 --> 00:06:36,471
Not necessarily.
The stock tanked.
149
00:06:36,529 --> 00:06:38,941
They stopped trading
at 35 cents a share.
150
00:06:38,999 --> 00:06:41,843
That's gotta make for a pretty
disgruntled customer.
151
00:06:43,169 --> 00:06:44,671
Call Carmichael.
This should be enough
152
00:06:44,738 --> 00:06:47,810
for us to get a subpoena
for their client list.
153
00:06:49,175 --> 00:06:50,415
Detectives?
154
00:06:50,477 --> 00:06:52,423
Didn't waste anytime
with the Mop & Glo, huh?
155
00:06:52,479 --> 00:06:56,086
Yeah. Well, some of the brokers found
the sight of blood a little unsettling.
156
00:06:56,149 --> 00:06:57,651
Figured around here
they'd be used to it.
157
00:06:57,717 --> 00:06:59,628
May I see the subpoena?
158
00:07:02,422 --> 00:07:04,163
This is all
confidential information.
159
00:07:04,224 --> 00:07:07,831
Yeah, well, you have your
insider trading, we have ours.
160
00:07:11,998 --> 00:07:15,946
In the great scheme of things, $30,000
really isn't a lot of money, Detective.
161
00:07:16,002 --> 00:07:18,812
Yeah, I know. That's what I'm gonna
have to live on when I retire.
162
00:07:18,872 --> 00:07:20,852
I guess you guys don't
get stock options.
163
00:07:20,907 --> 00:07:22,614
So, you weren't angry
with Sean Alvarez?
164
00:07:22,676 --> 00:07:24,053
Why should I be angry?
165
00:07:24,110 --> 00:07:26,021
Sean gave me a tip
just the month before.
166
00:07:26,079 --> 00:07:27,888
Avery lucrative tip.
167
00:07:27,948 --> 00:07:31,486
No, as far as I could tell,
the kid was a real go-getter.
168
00:07:34,421 --> 00:07:36,367
Sean called.
Introduced himself.
169
00:07:36,423 --> 00:07:38,926
Said he got my number through
his father's country club.
170
00:07:38,992 --> 00:07:39,993
You a member?
171
00:07:40,060 --> 00:07:41,095
Was.
172
00:07:41,161 --> 00:07:43,539
Unfortunately, I've suffered
some setbacks recently.
173
00:07:43,596 --> 00:07:45,940
Like Healthroad2000?
174
00:07:46,299 --> 00:07:48,108
I was told it was a sure thing.
175
00:07:48,168 --> 00:07:50,341
You really need somebody
to tell you that investing
176
00:07:50,403 --> 00:07:52,405
in an Internet company
might be risky?
177
00:07:52,505 --> 00:07:55,975
What I needed was someone to tell
me when to get out. Sean didn't.
178
00:07:56,242 --> 00:07:57,516
Maybe Sean didn't know.
179
00:07:57,577 --> 00:07:59,523
Money always makes money,
Detective.
180
00:07:59,579 --> 00:08:00,922
That's why 1% of the world
181
00:08:00,981 --> 00:08:02,688
controls 99% of its wealth.
182
00:08:02,749 --> 00:08:05,286
ED: You're saying Sean
had inside information?
183
00:08:05,352 --> 00:08:07,855
The stock market should never
be a guessing game.
184
00:08:08,722 --> 00:08:10,463
So why were you left out
in the dark?
185
00:08:10,957 --> 00:08:12,800
Maybe I just didn't play
on the right team.
186
00:08:13,460 --> 00:08:14,632
What do you mean by that?
187
00:08:14,694 --> 00:08:16,002
From what I've heard since,
188
00:08:16,429 --> 00:08:19,069
Sean lived a certain lifestyle.
189
00:08:19,132 --> 00:08:21,203
What kind of lifestyle
are we talking about?
190
00:08:23,503 --> 00:08:24,709
Just say it wasn't co-ed.
191
00:08:24,771 --> 00:08:25,772
(LAUGHS)
192
00:08:29,142 --> 00:08:30,177
I thought he had a fianc?e.
193
00:08:30,243 --> 00:08:31,381
It wouldn't be the first time.
194
00:08:31,444 --> 00:08:33,014
Man's keeping secrets.
195
00:08:33,079 --> 00:08:35,821
Yeah, he's also dropping
money on dinners
196
00:08:35,882 --> 00:08:37,725
like I do on a new car.
197
00:08:37,784 --> 00:08:40,924
If he was leaving his job, he sure
wasn't curtailing his entertainment.
198
00:08:40,987 --> 00:08:42,796
LUDs from his phones?
199
00:08:47,727 --> 00:08:49,604
Hmm. Nothing out of
the ordinary.
200
00:08:49,896 --> 00:08:53,275
What about this one from his
cell phone, Exotic Image?
201
00:08:53,833 --> 00:08:55,471
212 area code.
202
00:08:55,535 --> 00:08:56,946
Looks like he made
a bunch of calls there.
203
00:08:57,003 --> 00:08:58,209
All about a month ago.
204
00:09:00,507 --> 00:09:02,180
Answering machine.
205
00:09:02,742 --> 00:09:04,551
Photo studio on Gansevoort.
206
00:09:04,611 --> 00:09:08,058
Meatpacking District. Home
of the straight and narrow.
207
00:09:10,483 --> 00:09:13,225
I'm sorry, but Mr. Jankovic
is in Bangkok.
208
00:09:13,286 --> 00:09:14,765
A bar mitzvah, no doubt.
209
00:09:14,821 --> 00:09:16,061
When will he be back?
210
00:09:16,122 --> 00:09:17,795
A week. Maybe two.
211
00:09:17,924 --> 00:09:21,838
Maybe you can help us out. Does the
name Sean Alvarez ring a bell?
212
00:09:21,895 --> 00:09:23,272
Not really. Should it?
213
00:09:23,329 --> 00:09:25,309
ED: He called a couple times.
About a month ago.
214
00:09:25,365 --> 00:09:27,367
Well, if he came in,
it's easy enough to check.
215
00:09:27,434 --> 00:09:28,811
Thanks.
216
00:09:29,703 --> 00:09:32,513
I guess that's what they call
a head shot.
217
00:09:33,106 --> 00:09:36,144
All right. I have a receipt
here for an Alvarez.
218
00:09:36,209 --> 00:09:38,382
It's for a purchase
of a set of negatives.
219
00:09:38,445 --> 00:09:39,617
ED: Negatives?
220
00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:41,989
Well, it looks like it's
from an old photo shoot,
221
00:09:42,048 --> 00:09:44,824
but I couldn't tell you
what specifically.
222
00:09:44,884 --> 00:09:46,329
Do you recognize this man?
223
00:09:47,020 --> 00:09:48,055
No.
224
00:09:48,188 --> 00:09:50,532
BRISCOE: Maybe there's an
address on the receipt?
225
00:09:50,590 --> 00:09:53,002
It's a copy
of a credit card slip.
226
00:09:54,661 --> 00:09:58,905
I'm telling you, I don't know anything
about any Exotic Image photography studio.
227
00:09:58,965 --> 00:10:02,913
Well, your Chase Visa account
shows a $1,700 charge.
228
00:10:02,969 --> 00:10:05,279
The clerk there says
it was for a set of negatives.
229
00:10:05,338 --> 00:10:08,217
Negatives?
Negatives of what?
230
00:10:08,274 --> 00:10:11,414
Please. Sean's aunt and uncle
are waiting for us.
231
00:10:11,478 --> 00:10:12,923
They've come in
from out of town.
232
00:10:12,979 --> 00:10:14,617
Can't we do this another time?
233
00:10:16,216 --> 00:10:17,661
Do you know anything
about this?
234
00:10:20,086 --> 00:10:21,497
If those photos are evidence,
235
00:10:21,554 --> 00:10:24,467
concealing them could be
an obstruction of justice.
236
00:10:26,126 --> 00:10:27,298
Nancy.
237
00:10:28,761 --> 00:10:30,968
Please, if you know anything.
238
00:10:50,950 --> 00:10:53,055
He didn't want you to know.
239
00:11:12,672 --> 00:11:15,312
Why didn't you ever say
anything to me?
240
00:11:15,942 --> 00:11:18,548
He was worried about
what you'd think.
241
00:11:19,179 --> 00:11:21,216
It was in college, Martin.
242
00:11:24,017 --> 00:11:25,826
Someone had came around
the school
243
00:11:25,885 --> 00:11:28,957
offering students money
to pose for a calendar.
244
00:11:29,689 --> 00:11:31,327
The Boys of Brown.
245
00:11:31,758 --> 00:11:34,102
It was a foolish thing to do
Sean knew that.
246
00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:35,264
So why tell you?
247
00:11:36,529 --> 00:11:39,339
We were talking about him
leaving his job.
248
00:11:40,166 --> 00:11:44,342
At first, he tried to tell me it was
because he'd found a better one.
249
00:11:45,238 --> 00:11:47,809
But I could see in his face
something was wrong.
250
00:11:48,575 --> 00:11:51,988
Finally, he told me. He had
gotten this e-mail at work,
251
00:11:52,045 --> 00:11:53,888
with one of those pictures
attached to it.
252
00:11:55,281 --> 00:11:58,751
Apparently, it had been posted
on a gay men's website.
253
00:11:59,185 --> 00:12:00,186
Gay?
254
00:12:00,253 --> 00:12:02,859
Sean didn't realize that when
he'd signed the release,
255
00:12:02,922 --> 00:12:06,768
the photographer could do whatever
he wanted with the pictures.
256
00:12:06,859 --> 00:12:08,736
He wasn't gay, Martin.
257
00:12:08,928 --> 00:12:11,238
Did Sean ever tell you
who sent the e-mail?
258
00:12:11,297 --> 00:12:14,403
No, but I do know
they tried to find out.
259
00:12:15,101 --> 00:12:16,136
Who tried?
260
00:12:16,202 --> 00:12:17,545
His bosses.
261
00:12:17,604 --> 00:12:20,084
Braddock and Todd
knew about the e-mail?
262
00:12:20,139 --> 00:12:23,848
Yes. Sean said his manager
even teased him about it.
263
00:12:26,145 --> 00:12:27,818
Hey, someone sick enough
to send hate mail
264
00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:29,621
might be sick enough
to take it a step further.
265
00:12:29,682 --> 00:12:32,891
Or maybe we're asking the wrong
person about a jealous boyfriend.
266
00:12:32,952 --> 00:12:35,398
Well, that seems like
a pretty big coincidence
267
00:12:35,455 --> 00:12:37,435
to have this secret past
revealed.
268
00:12:37,490 --> 00:12:39,595
Then a month later,
leave a job you love?
269
00:12:39,659 --> 00:12:41,070
Unless you were forced out.
270
00:12:41,127 --> 00:12:43,403
And we all know
what that means.
271
00:12:43,463 --> 00:12:44,806
A lawsuit.
272
00:12:48,468 --> 00:12:51,915
Okay. Sean Alvarez filed
a federal lawsuit
273
00:12:51,971 --> 00:12:54,281
against Braddock and Todd
about six weeks ago.
274
00:12:54,540 --> 00:12:56,986
What was the basis
for the lawsuit?
275
00:12:57,277 --> 00:12:58,779
Sexual harassment.
276
00:12:58,845 --> 00:13:00,847
He alleged a hostile
work environment.
277
00:13:00,913 --> 00:13:02,017
Someone was hitting on him?
278
00:13:02,081 --> 00:13:04,425
Not necessarily.
All he has to do is establish
279
00:13:04,484 --> 00:13:06,464
his work environment
is upsetting.
280
00:13:06,519 --> 00:13:07,862
BRISCOE: I could do that.
281
00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:09,922
Upsetting sexually, Lennie.
282
00:13:10,690 --> 00:13:14,069
What about identifying the
person who sent the e-mail?
283
00:13:15,028 --> 00:13:16,473
Wasn't part of the claim.
284
00:13:16,529 --> 00:13:19,135
He only sued his employer.
Said he was being teased.
285
00:13:19,198 --> 00:13:21,508
A little teasing.
Seems pretty thin.
286
00:13:21,567 --> 00:13:23,979
Not to his employer.
They settled.
287
00:13:24,203 --> 00:13:26,012
BRADDOCK: We signed
a non-disclosure agreement.
288
00:13:26,072 --> 00:13:29,053
I'm not at liberty to discuss the
terms of the settlement. I'm sorry.
289
00:13:29,108 --> 00:13:32,681
Unless you start giving us some answers,
you're not gonna be at liberty at all.
290
00:13:32,745 --> 00:13:34,418
Why didn't you mention
the lawsuit before?
291
00:13:34,480 --> 00:13:37,484
If you're suggesting money as a
motive here, Detective, it wasn't.
292
00:13:37,550 --> 00:13:39,791
The settlement was
covered by insurance.
293
00:13:39,852 --> 00:13:43,664
Look, the truth is we were all
embarrassed by the e-mail.
294
00:13:43,723 --> 00:13:45,327
Did you ever find out
who sent it?
295
00:13:45,391 --> 00:13:48,861
I think Bruce Valentine tried.
Now if you'll excuse me.
296
00:13:51,531 --> 00:13:53,238
I already had a tech
check his system.
297
00:13:53,299 --> 00:13:55,802
Yeah, well, whoever sent it
had his e-mail address.
298
00:13:55,868 --> 00:13:57,848
Maybe Sean gave it
to him himself.
299
00:13:57,904 --> 00:14:00,350
So we need to check everyone
on his outgoing e-mail.
300
00:14:00,406 --> 00:14:01,817
Who else knew about this?
301
00:14:01,874 --> 00:14:03,512
This is a business
based on rumors.
302
00:14:03,576 --> 00:14:05,578
It's pretty hard to keep
something like that quiet.
303
00:14:05,645 --> 00:14:07,750
Especially when your boss
gives you crap about it.
304
00:14:07,814 --> 00:14:10,818
Yeah, well, like it or not, Wall
Street's still an old boys club.
305
00:14:11,050 --> 00:14:13,223
Just not those kind
of boys, huh?
306
00:14:13,886 --> 00:14:16,332
Trading stocks involves
a certain degree of trust.
307
00:14:16,622 --> 00:14:19,102
When I asked, Sean told me
it was just a college prank.
308
00:14:19,726 --> 00:14:21,228
You saw the picture.
309
00:14:21,294 --> 00:14:23,604
Did it look like
a prank to you?
310
00:14:26,499 --> 00:14:29,708
Actually, Mrs. Simms, we're
looking for your husband.
311
00:14:29,769 --> 00:14:30,804
Mitchel isn't here.
312
00:14:30,870 --> 00:14:33,282
Do you know where
we can find him?
313
00:14:33,606 --> 00:14:34,812
What's this about?
314
00:14:34,874 --> 00:14:37,980
Does your husband know
a man named Sean Alvarez?
315
00:14:39,479 --> 00:14:41,686
Uh, I've never
heard the name before.
316
00:14:42,248 --> 00:14:43,283
What's going on?
317
00:14:43,349 --> 00:14:46,057
We got your husband's name
from Mr. Alvarez's computer.
318
00:14:46,119 --> 00:14:48,292
It was on his list
of e-mail addresses.
319
00:14:48,354 --> 00:14:52,166
BRISCOE: Mr. Alvarez was a broker
with a firm called Braddock and Todd.
320
00:14:52,425 --> 00:14:54,098
Braddock and Todd?
321
00:14:54,460 --> 00:14:57,964
But my husband dealt with a man
named Valentine, not Alvarez.
322
00:14:58,664 --> 00:14:59,802
Bruce Valentine?
323
00:15:00,099 --> 00:15:01,169
Yes.
324
00:15:02,001 --> 00:15:03,844
But why are you looking
for Mitchel?
325
00:15:03,903 --> 00:15:06,076
Mr. Alvarez was killed
two days ago.
326
00:15:06,372 --> 00:15:07,749
Oh, my God.
327
00:15:07,974 --> 00:15:10,250
ED: It's important that
we find your husband.
328
00:15:10,309 --> 00:15:11,515
(SIGHS)
329
00:15:12,812 --> 00:15:15,224
Mitch didn't come home
last night.
330
00:15:15,281 --> 00:15:18,023
He's a gambler. He hasn't had
a real job in over a year.
331
00:15:18,084 --> 00:15:19,620
I think that's why
he traded stocks.
332
00:15:19,685 --> 00:15:21,790
It was easier than going
to the track.
333
00:15:21,854 --> 00:15:24,300
ED: How about a bookie
or a favorite OTB parlor?
334
00:15:24,357 --> 00:15:25,597
I don't know.
335
00:15:25,658 --> 00:15:28,161
We don't want anybody
to get hurt here, Mrs. Simms.
336
00:15:28,227 --> 00:15:30,571
I swear I don't know
where he is.
337
00:15:31,230 --> 00:15:33,642
But please,
please don't hurt him.
338
00:15:34,367 --> 00:15:36,745
Wife says at most he'd have
a couple of hundred bucks.
339
00:15:36,803 --> 00:15:38,612
What about an ATM card?
340
00:15:38,704 --> 00:15:39,944
No funds available.
341
00:15:40,006 --> 00:15:44,682
Thank you. DMV has a '95 Ford
Escort registered to Mitchel Simms
342
00:15:44,744 --> 00:15:45,916
under the same address.
343
00:15:45,978 --> 00:15:47,480
Add the plates
to the hot sheet.
344
00:15:47,547 --> 00:15:51,359
Simms used a credit card to buy gas
on the service road to the Van Wyck,
345
00:15:51,417 --> 00:15:52,896
day before yesterday.
346
00:15:52,985 --> 00:15:54,293
That's on the way to Kennedy.
347
00:15:54,353 --> 00:15:57,960
Call Port Authority police. Have them
check all parking lots for Simms' car.
348
00:15:58,024 --> 00:16:00,265
And let's notify the airlines.
349
00:16:01,561 --> 00:16:05,304
Lot attendant says the car came in
about 6:30, day before yesterday.
350
00:16:05,364 --> 00:16:07,571
Talk about long-term parking.
351
00:16:09,836 --> 00:16:11,474
ED: .38's in his lap.
352
00:16:11,671 --> 00:16:13,480
Same caliber as Alvarez.
353
00:16:13,539 --> 00:16:15,644
Nobody touches anything
until CSU gets here.
354
00:16:15,708 --> 00:16:19,121
When they do, tell them to bag his
hands for GAR, voucher the gun.
355
00:16:19,178 --> 00:16:20,589
(PLANE FLYING OVERHEAD)
356
00:16:20,646 --> 00:16:22,887
Maybe he was afraid of flying.
357
00:16:28,020 --> 00:16:30,057
It doesn't make any sense.
358
00:16:31,891 --> 00:16:33,734
Why would Mitchel kill himself?
359
00:16:33,793 --> 00:16:35,830
ED: The GAR came back
from the lab.
360
00:16:36,295 --> 00:16:39,833
Your husband's right hand
tested positive for gunpowder.
361
00:16:39,899 --> 00:16:41,503
And the receptionist
at the brokerage
362
00:16:41,567 --> 00:16:44,173
just identified him
as the man who shot her.
363
00:16:44,237 --> 00:16:45,477
But why?
364
00:16:45,705 --> 00:16:47,446
Why would Mitchel shoot
these people?
365
00:16:48,374 --> 00:16:52,447
Do you know anything about an e-mail
your husband may have sent Sean Alvarez?
366
00:16:53,212 --> 00:16:54,885
An e-mail he sent?
367
00:16:55,481 --> 00:16:57,392
CARMICHAEL:
Of a threatening nature.
368
00:16:57,450 --> 00:16:59,157
If there was anybody
Mitchel would've threatened,
369
00:16:59,218 --> 00:17:01,095
it would have been
Bruce Valentine.
370
00:17:01,287 --> 00:17:02,766
Why do you say that?
371
00:17:02,822 --> 00:17:06,395
Maybe six months ago,
Mitchel ran into Valentine.
372
00:17:06,692 --> 00:17:08,694
They went to
high school together.
373
00:17:09,161 --> 00:17:11,539
He talked to Mitchel
about investing.
374
00:17:11,597 --> 00:17:14,237
Said he would give him
some stock tips.
375
00:17:14,300 --> 00:17:15,335
Did he?
376
00:17:15,401 --> 00:17:16,937
In the beginning.
377
00:17:17,003 --> 00:17:19,847
Then he stopped
returning Mitchel's calls.
378
00:17:19,972 --> 00:17:23,977
Then one day he calls Mitchel.
Tells him about some health stock.
379
00:17:24,043 --> 00:17:25,716
I forget the name.
380
00:17:26,445 --> 00:17:28,391
It went through the roof.
381
00:17:28,447 --> 00:17:31,394
I begged my husband to sell.
But he wouldn't.
382
00:17:31,751 --> 00:17:33,162
ED: Why not?
383
00:17:33,920 --> 00:17:37,367
He said Bruce Valentine would
tell him when to get out.
384
00:17:38,825 --> 00:17:40,304
He never did.
385
00:17:41,761 --> 00:17:43,069
Mrs. Simms was under
the impression
386
00:17:43,129 --> 00:17:44,665
you were handling
her husband's account.
387
00:17:44,730 --> 00:17:47,074
Yes, but I turned it over
to Sean.
388
00:17:47,133 --> 00:17:50,637
But you were the one who told Mr. Simms
about the Healthroad2000 stock?
389
00:17:50,703 --> 00:17:52,307
I think so, yes.
390
00:17:52,572 --> 00:17:55,849
So why would he be mad
at Sean Alvarez and not you?
391
00:17:56,108 --> 00:17:57,212
(SIGHING)
392
00:17:57,276 --> 00:17:59,813
Look, maybe he just picked
an easy target.
393
00:17:59,879 --> 00:18:03,349
I don't know. I'm just glad that I
wasn't around at the time, you know?
394
00:18:04,784 --> 00:18:06,263
His wife says he was broke?
395
00:18:06,319 --> 00:18:08,265
Yeah, Mitch had
some tough luck.
396
00:18:08,321 --> 00:18:09,800
Well, what was he buying
stock with?
397
00:18:10,256 --> 00:18:11,735
We set up a margin account.
398
00:18:11,791 --> 00:18:13,327
Margin?
Mmm-hmm.
399
00:18:13,759 --> 00:18:15,329
What did he use for collateral?
400
00:18:15,795 --> 00:18:17,206
He took out a second mortgage.
401
00:18:18,297 --> 00:18:19,605
When was that?
402
00:18:20,833 --> 00:18:22,938
When he opened the account.
403
00:18:23,302 --> 00:18:25,509
Yep. Mitchel Simms.
404
00:18:25,571 --> 00:18:30,452
Took out a loan of 42.5, underlying
mortgage on the condo was for 130.
405
00:18:30,943 --> 00:18:33,947
Place was assessed
at a little over two bills.
406
00:18:34,213 --> 00:18:35,487
But he never made a payment?
407
00:18:35,548 --> 00:18:36,891
Not a one.
408
00:18:37,450 --> 00:18:38,895
So why didn't you foreclose?
409
00:18:39,452 --> 00:18:41,159
Matter a fact,
we filed papers last month.
410
00:18:41,220 --> 00:18:43,166
Only he came in about
a week ago
411
00:18:43,222 --> 00:18:45,702
with a cashier's check
for the whole nut.
412
00:18:45,925 --> 00:18:48,531
A cashier's check?
Drawn on what bank?
413
00:18:49,562 --> 00:18:53,032
The check was drawn on Braddock
and Todd's house account.
414
00:18:53,099 --> 00:18:55,443
Same ones who called in
his margin.
415
00:18:55,501 --> 00:18:57,310
It's not exactly sound
business practice
416
00:18:57,370 --> 00:18:59,941
to give money to a man who just
lost his shirt in the market.
417
00:19:00,006 --> 00:19:02,646
Not unless you felt responsible
for how he lost it.
418
00:19:02,708 --> 00:19:03,982
You think they were
trying to make good?
419
00:19:04,043 --> 00:19:06,683
That or trying to
make something bad go away.
420
00:19:06,879 --> 00:19:08,381
It was a loan.
421
00:19:08,914 --> 00:19:12,259
A loan to a customer who already owed
you a substantial amount of money.
422
00:19:12,318 --> 00:19:13,319
Explain that to us.
423
00:19:13,986 --> 00:19:17,559
Well, Bruce Valentine recommended
I make the loan. We did.
424
00:19:17,757 --> 00:19:19,737
Throwing good money after bad?
425
00:19:19,792 --> 00:19:22,398
Well, Bruce
is my top performer, okay?
426
00:19:22,528 --> 00:19:25,270
For $45,000, I wasn't
prepared to question him.
427
00:19:25,331 --> 00:19:27,470
No, especially not
if you had concerns
428
00:19:27,533 --> 00:19:29,638
about how the money got lost
in the first place, right?
429
00:19:32,972 --> 00:19:35,009
Simms had a margin account.
430
00:19:36,375 --> 00:19:37,581
Who approved that?
431
00:19:40,012 --> 00:19:41,787
CARMICHAEL:
Another favor, Mr. Braddock?
432
00:19:41,847 --> 00:19:45,920
The truth is Bruce allowed the man
to trade when he shouldn't have.
433
00:19:46,152 --> 00:19:47,153
What do you mean?
434
00:19:47,219 --> 00:19:49,631
He let his friendship
cloud his judgment.
435
00:19:49,755 --> 00:19:51,894
Simms had a gambling problem.
436
00:19:52,458 --> 00:19:55,405
Bruce knew about it, but let
Simms trade on margin anyway.
437
00:19:55,494 --> 00:19:57,997
So you paid $45,000
438
00:19:58,064 --> 00:20:01,375
to make up for Valentine's
lack of judgment, is that it?
439
00:20:01,434 --> 00:20:05,109
Look, these kind of things can
reflect badly on the entire firm.
440
00:20:05,171 --> 00:20:08,914
When Simms lost the money on
Healthroad2000, he threatened us.
441
00:20:10,042 --> 00:20:12,283
The last thing I needed was a
bunch of federal regulators
442
00:20:12,345 --> 00:20:15,417
rehashing old trades
I'd already lost money on.
443
00:20:16,248 --> 00:20:20,060
A benevolent broker. Where
were these people in '87?
444
00:20:20,152 --> 00:20:23,690
According to Braddock, it wasn't benevolence.
It was expedience.
445
00:20:23,756 --> 00:20:26,566
I'm not buying it. How many
people in the market lose money
446
00:20:26,625 --> 00:20:28,468
and then try to blame
their brokers?
447
00:20:28,527 --> 00:20:31,201
A payoff on a claim of that
kind just opens the floodgates.
448
00:20:31,263 --> 00:20:32,708
Braddock had to know that.
449
00:20:32,765 --> 00:20:36,474
So, the $45,000 was for something else.
But what? Murder?
450
00:20:38,137 --> 00:20:41,243
These people seem
to be making a lot of payoffs.
451
00:20:41,574 --> 00:20:43,349
To Alvarez, to Simms.
452
00:20:45,411 --> 00:20:48,551
This lawsuit, Ms. Carmichael,
what do we know about it?
453
00:20:48,614 --> 00:20:51,117
Nothing. There's a
non-disclosure agreement.
454
00:20:51,650 --> 00:20:53,823
Talk to the insurance carrier.
455
00:20:53,886 --> 00:20:57,891
See if we can find out what they
were really trying to keep quiet.
456
00:21:01,193 --> 00:21:02,399
CARMICHAEL:
$2 million?
457
00:21:02,461 --> 00:21:03,531
What were the facts?
458
00:21:03,596 --> 00:21:05,507
Just what's there
in the complaint.
459
00:21:05,564 --> 00:21:06,599
What about depositions?
460
00:21:06,665 --> 00:21:08,576
No depositions were taken.
461
00:21:09,001 --> 00:21:10,480
No discovery?
462
00:21:10,836 --> 00:21:12,816
Isn't that unusual given
the amount of the settlement?
463
00:21:12,872 --> 00:21:15,614
Not where one side's afraid of
what might come out of discovery.
464
00:21:15,674 --> 00:21:18,120
One side meaning
Braddock and Todd?
465
00:21:18,177 --> 00:21:21,249
I took a look at the photograph,
then I called the kid's supervisor.
466
00:21:21,313 --> 00:21:23,350
He tells me
we have serious problems.
467
00:21:23,416 --> 00:21:24,861
So I called my supervisor.
468
00:21:24,917 --> 00:21:25,918
And?
469
00:21:27,319 --> 00:21:30,323
Apparently, Mr. Braddock
already spoke to him.
470
00:21:30,389 --> 00:21:34,895
Said the allegations were true and that
he wanted the lawsuit put to bed quietly.
471
00:21:34,994 --> 00:21:35,995
So you settled?
472
00:21:36,061 --> 00:21:37,597
We took a look
at the policy's limits
473
00:21:37,663 --> 00:21:41,042
and cut a check to the brokerage
for Alvarez that afternoon.
474
00:21:41,100 --> 00:21:43,512
I had a signed release
by morning.
475
00:21:44,537 --> 00:21:48,041
$2 million, and Braddock
doesn't even put up a fight.
476
00:21:48,107 --> 00:21:51,486
Why should he with the insurance
company footing the bill?
477
00:21:51,544 --> 00:21:55,219
It was like a virtual lawsuit. There's
no saber rattling, no discovery.
478
00:21:55,648 --> 00:21:58,151
Alvarez doesn't even live
long enough to cash the check.
479
00:21:58,350 --> 00:22:00,057
But that couldn't be
the motive for killing him
480
00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:02,360
because the insurance money
would just go to his estate.
481
00:22:04,390 --> 00:22:07,837
So is this really a murder
for hire or just some
482
00:22:07,893 --> 00:22:10,100
garden-variety
let's kill my broker?
483
00:22:12,965 --> 00:22:14,444
The e-mail that started
this whole thing?
484
00:22:14,500 --> 00:22:17,709
Are we even sure that Simms is
the one who sent it?
485
00:22:19,538 --> 00:22:20,846
The e-mail was deleted.
486
00:22:20,906 --> 00:22:22,146
You're certain?
487
00:22:22,208 --> 00:22:25,382
Looks like they ran a Y2K
compliance program a few weeks ago.
488
00:22:25,444 --> 00:22:28,391
Seems to have taken out all the
e-mails on the hard drive.
489
00:22:28,447 --> 00:22:29,619
Intentionally?
490
00:22:29,682 --> 00:22:32,390
If it wasn't,
it certainly was careless.
491
00:22:32,485 --> 00:22:34,829
So there's no way to know
who sent it?
492
00:22:34,887 --> 00:22:37,766
I can't tell you who,
but I can tell you when.
493
00:22:37,823 --> 00:22:41,896
The hard drive's transaction
log posts it in October.
494
00:22:42,528 --> 00:22:44,974
So I checked that against
the company's main server,
495
00:22:45,030 --> 00:22:48,409
that log indicates it entered
the system in December.
496
00:22:48,601 --> 00:22:50,342
So the e-mail
was back dated?
497
00:22:50,402 --> 00:22:51,403
That they couldn't hide.
498
00:22:51,770 --> 00:22:53,010
How would that be done?
499
00:22:53,072 --> 00:22:54,608
With the administrator's code.
500
00:22:54,673 --> 00:22:56,710
With that you can forward
an e-mail to any terminal
501
00:22:56,775 --> 00:22:59,051
and put whatever transaction
date you wanted on it.
502
00:22:59,211 --> 00:23:00,246
Who would have the code?
503
00:23:00,312 --> 00:23:02,223
Only senior management.
504
00:23:03,516 --> 00:23:05,427
Why would a company
want to plant an e-mail
505
00:23:05,484 --> 00:23:07,259
that was gonna cost them
2 million bucks?
506
00:23:07,319 --> 00:23:09,230
Because the money was
to come from their insurance.
507
00:23:09,288 --> 00:23:12,201
They knew they wouldn't be
out of pocket a penny.
508
00:23:12,258 --> 00:23:13,703
Perfect hush money.
509
00:23:13,759 --> 00:23:15,261
But to hush up who?
510
00:23:15,361 --> 00:23:20,401
Alvarez, Simms and Valentine were all involved
with a stock called Healthroad2000.com.
511
00:23:20,699 --> 00:23:23,236
Takes us right back
to the beginning.
512
00:23:23,836 --> 00:23:26,874
Looks like Braddock and Todd
did a bunch of IPO's.
513
00:23:26,939 --> 00:23:29,249
Healthroad2000 was just
one of them.
514
00:23:29,308 --> 00:23:31,151
These offshore
holding companies,
515
00:23:31,210 --> 00:23:34,521
Healthroad's board of directors
also controlled them.
516
00:23:34,613 --> 00:23:37,719
Same holding companies
with this other start-up.
517
00:23:37,783 --> 00:23:39,262
This one, too.
518
00:23:41,220 --> 00:23:45,191
All these IPO's, same board of
directors, same holding companies.
519
00:23:45,357 --> 00:23:47,132
Same pump and dumps.
520
00:23:48,294 --> 00:23:50,433
We did a good job,
they came back.
521
00:23:50,496 --> 00:23:51,839
No wonder.
522
00:23:52,064 --> 00:23:55,910
We pulled the SEC's insider trading
statements on each of these companies.
523
00:23:55,968 --> 00:23:58,847
All of them filed to sell their
shares as soon as they could.
524
00:23:58,904 --> 00:24:00,008
That's perfectly legal.
525
00:24:00,072 --> 00:24:02,484
Unless they knew something
the rest of us didn't.
526
00:24:02,541 --> 00:24:05,715
Each of these companies saw the
value of their shares skyrocket,
527
00:24:05,778 --> 00:24:07,553
then the price just dives.
528
00:24:07,613 --> 00:24:09,354
The market's a risky place.
529
00:24:09,415 --> 00:24:12,191
People want certainty, they
should put their money in CD's.
530
00:24:12,251 --> 00:24:15,596
What the people want, Mr. Braddock,
is a level playing field.
531
00:24:15,821 --> 00:24:18,859
Our guess is Sean Alvarez discovered
you weren't providing one.
532
00:24:18,924 --> 00:24:21,837
That's why you planted
the e-mail, isn't it?
533
00:24:21,961 --> 00:24:25,738
To create a bogus lawsuit in
order to pay off Sean Alvarez.
534
00:24:26,098 --> 00:24:27,805
That's insurance fraud
for starters.
535
00:24:27,866 --> 00:24:31,336
And who knows how many violations
of federal security laws
536
00:24:31,403 --> 00:24:32,711
on the stock scheme.
537
00:24:32,771 --> 00:24:34,910
The federal sentencing
guidelines for these crimes
538
00:24:34,974 --> 00:24:38,046
have been described
as draconian, Mr. Braddock.
539
00:24:38,143 --> 00:24:40,646
I'm not a criminal lawyer, Carl, but
I wouldn't answer anything else.
540
00:24:40,713 --> 00:24:42,989
JACK: He's right. Save your
explanation for the jury.
541
00:24:43,048 --> 00:24:45,722
Only sometimes a murder charge
has a chilling effect
542
00:24:45,784 --> 00:24:47,923
on a defendant's decision
to take the stand.
543
00:24:47,987 --> 00:24:49,022
Murder?
544
00:24:49,088 --> 00:24:52,729
That's what the $45,000 you paid
Mitchel Simms was for, wasn't it?
545
00:24:53,025 --> 00:24:54,504
To kill Sean Alvarez?
546
00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:55,903
I didn't kill anyone.
547
00:24:55,961 --> 00:24:58,100
It's your name on the check.
548
00:25:00,132 --> 00:25:01,338
(SIGHS)
549
00:25:05,137 --> 00:25:06,616
You know, in the old days,
550
00:25:06,672 --> 00:25:09,482
you made someone 10%,
you were doing your job.
551
00:25:09,541 --> 00:25:10,576
Not anymore.
552
00:25:11,343 --> 00:25:13,846
Today, everyone wants
to double their money.
553
00:25:13,912 --> 00:25:17,416
Not in a year.
In weeks. Hours.
554
00:25:17,850 --> 00:25:19,386
JACK: Business was tough.
555
00:25:19,818 --> 00:25:21,695
That's your excuse,
Mr. Braddock?
556
00:25:23,956 --> 00:25:26,436
I told Bruce there was
no reason to kill them.
557
00:25:26,492 --> 00:25:29,336
But he was just talking crazy.
558
00:25:30,162 --> 00:25:32,665
But ever since we started
dealing with those people...
559
00:25:33,365 --> 00:25:35,208
What people
are we talking about?
560
00:25:35,768 --> 00:25:37,873
Haven't you figured it out?
561
00:25:38,304 --> 00:25:42,116
The men who controlled those
companies, these board of directors.
562
00:25:43,475 --> 00:25:45,716
They're the mob,
for God's sake.
563
00:25:54,720 --> 00:25:58,793
JACK: Carl Braddock says you were the
front man for an organized crime group
564
00:25:58,857 --> 00:26:01,394
trading stocks
through his brokerage.
565
00:26:01,493 --> 00:26:05,339
He says it was you who paid Mitchel
Simms to kill Sean Alvarez.
566
00:26:05,764 --> 00:26:07,675
That's murder for hire,
Mr. Valentine.
567
00:26:07,733 --> 00:26:09,679
You get a needle
for that in this state.
568
00:26:09,735 --> 00:26:11,180
And it won't be for a flu shot.
569
00:26:11,270 --> 00:26:16,481
Well, now, let's all just slow
down here for a minute, shall we?
570
00:26:17,810 --> 00:26:21,622
I assume Mr. Braddock didn't
provide his information for free.
571
00:26:21,947 --> 00:26:26,396
We turned our prosecution of Mr. Braddock
over to the federal authorities.
572
00:26:26,819 --> 00:26:28,821
They'll consider
his cooperation.
573
00:26:28,887 --> 00:26:30,525
We want the same arrangement.
574
00:26:30,622 --> 00:26:33,068
JACK: I'll hear
what he has to say.
575
00:26:34,827 --> 00:26:36,033
(SIGHS)
576
00:26:37,029 --> 00:26:39,134
I was approached
about a year ago.
577
00:26:39,198 --> 00:26:40,836
JACK: Approached by who?
578
00:26:40,899 --> 00:26:42,810
Joseph Dantoni, Jr.
579
00:26:42,968 --> 00:26:45,039
Of the Dantoni crime family?
580
00:26:45,104 --> 00:26:47,607
Joey Jr. and I
went to high school together.
581
00:26:47,673 --> 00:26:48,743
With Mitchel Simms?
582
00:26:49,575 --> 00:26:52,181
Yeah, I've handled some
investments for Joey's father.
583
00:26:52,244 --> 00:26:54,918
Very conservative.
But Joey wasn't blind.
584
00:26:55,214 --> 00:26:57,820
He saw how easily the market
could be manipulated.
585
00:26:57,883 --> 00:26:59,021
How did that work?
586
00:26:59,084 --> 00:27:01,997
I set up some offshore shells
to run the stocks through
587
00:27:02,054 --> 00:27:05,058
and then I'd post favorable
information about them in chat rooms
588
00:27:05,124 --> 00:27:06,899
when we were ready to go
public with the company.
589
00:27:06,959 --> 00:27:08,404
JACK: And Sean Alvarez?
590
00:27:10,129 --> 00:27:13,542
Obviously he did his homework.
Found out what I was doing.
591
00:27:14,133 --> 00:27:15,806
He threatened to go to the SEC,
592
00:27:15,868 --> 00:27:18,906
so we came up with the idea of a
phony lawsuit to pay him off.
593
00:27:18,971 --> 00:27:22,748
So you planted an e-mail to create
a false claim of harassment?
594
00:27:22,808 --> 00:27:25,755
There was no other way
to get Sean the money.
595
00:27:25,944 --> 00:27:28,083
The insurance company
paid off right away.
596
00:27:28,580 --> 00:27:30,184
So what went wrong?
597
00:27:31,950 --> 00:27:34,863
Joey didn't trust Sean
to keep his mouth shut.
598
00:27:37,289 --> 00:27:40,702
You're saying Joseph Dantoni, Jr.
had Sean Alvarez killed?
599
00:27:42,127 --> 00:27:45,074
About a week after
Joey found out about Sean,
600
00:27:45,697 --> 00:27:47,176
he called me.
601
00:27:48,200 --> 00:27:49,975
Told me what he was gonna do.
602
00:27:50,402 --> 00:27:52,973
See, Simms was into them
for a lot of money.
603
00:27:53,038 --> 00:27:54,039
And Joey just figured
604
00:27:54,106 --> 00:27:57,280
Mitch would look like some
disgruntled customer gone crazy.
605
00:28:01,313 --> 00:28:03,793
Your client remains in jail
until I check out his story.
606
00:28:03,849 --> 00:28:05,487
He'll need protection.
607
00:28:06,018 --> 00:28:07,895
Yes, I'm sure he will.
608
00:28:12,424 --> 00:28:15,701
Let's pick up Dantoni. I want this
in the grand jury right away.
609
00:28:15,761 --> 00:28:17,172
(KNOCKING ON DOOR)
610
00:28:18,363 --> 00:28:19,671
Joseph Dantoni.
611
00:28:20,899 --> 00:28:21,969
What's this about?
612
00:28:22,034 --> 00:28:23,172
On your feet, Mr. Dantoni.
613
00:28:23,235 --> 00:28:25,340
Okay. Okay. Just let me
take care of the check.
614
00:28:25,404 --> 00:28:26,610
Save it for bail.
615
00:28:26,672 --> 00:28:27,980
ED: You have the right
to remain silent.
616
00:28:28,073 --> 00:28:30,610
Anything you say can and will be
used against you in a court of law.
617
00:28:35,214 --> 00:28:37,455
What's this? I thought I had
the Hinkson case this morning.
618
00:28:37,516 --> 00:28:40,360
Judge, this was added to the calendar
at defense counsel's request.
619
00:28:40,419 --> 00:28:43,059
Joseph Dantoni, Jr.
Murder in the first degree.
620
00:28:43,121 --> 00:28:46,933
Your Honor, Mr. McCoy is before the
grand jury on this matter as we speak.
621
00:28:46,992 --> 00:28:48,699
JUDGE: What's the rush,
Mr. Patton?
622
00:28:48,760 --> 00:28:50,398
Your Honor, may we approach?
623
00:28:55,167 --> 00:28:58,478
Judge, I tried Mr. McCoy this morning.
I wasn't able to reach him.
624
00:28:58,537 --> 00:29:00,141
I was hoping to have
a conversation with him
625
00:29:00,205 --> 00:29:03,448
before any murder indictment
was voted in this case.
626
00:29:03,509 --> 00:29:07,252
A conversation? You're saying
your client wants to cooperate?
627
00:29:07,479 --> 00:29:10,016
Not him. His father.
628
00:29:11,783 --> 00:29:13,626
I appreciate your seeing me,
Mr. McCoy.
629
00:29:13,685 --> 00:29:15,392
This isn't a courtesy.
630
00:29:15,454 --> 00:29:17,798
You have information
regarding this homicide?
631
00:29:17,856 --> 00:29:20,302
Yeah, we do.
632
00:29:20,893 --> 00:29:23,271
You understand there's
no offer of immunity.
633
00:29:23,328 --> 00:29:24,773
For either you or your son.
634
00:29:24,830 --> 00:29:28,243
Mr. Dantoni merely seeks the
same protection your office
635
00:29:28,300 --> 00:29:30,143
provides any
other crime victim.
636
00:29:30,202 --> 00:29:31,681
Crime victim?
637
00:29:33,071 --> 00:29:35,881
This is a strange situation
for all of us.
638
00:29:36,475 --> 00:29:38,546
I'm used to handling my
own problems my own way.
639
00:29:39,711 --> 00:29:41,588
But this is different.
640
00:29:42,314 --> 00:29:44,555
My son did not commit
any murder.
641
00:29:45,984 --> 00:29:48,430
That's the extent
of your information?
642
00:29:48,620 --> 00:29:50,258
My son's a moron.
643
00:29:51,623 --> 00:29:52,727
But he's not a murderer.
644
00:29:52,791 --> 00:29:55,601
So he's only half a chip
off the old block?
645
00:29:58,163 --> 00:29:59,506
Look, Joey might have
been aggressive
646
00:29:59,565 --> 00:30:02,205
in terms of pursuing
profits in the market.
647
00:30:02,267 --> 00:30:04,474
Certain rules might
have been broken.
648
00:30:04,536 --> 00:30:08,348
But he never murdered nobody or
hired nobody to murder nobody.
649
00:30:09,374 --> 00:30:10,785
How do you know this?
650
00:30:11,009 --> 00:30:12,420
I asked him.
651
00:30:13,312 --> 00:30:16,953
I asked him once I realized he'd
lost over $4 million of my money.
652
00:30:18,283 --> 00:30:22,095
I took a look at these holding
companies my genius son set up.
653
00:30:22,487 --> 00:30:26,060
Turns out all the assets were
controlled by Valentine, not Joey.
654
00:30:26,592 --> 00:30:28,833
Only now, none of them
got any assets.
655
00:30:28,894 --> 00:30:32,535
Mr. Dantoni's prepared to testify
that his brokerage account,
656
00:30:32,598 --> 00:30:35,545
as well as the accounts of
eight other of his associates,
657
00:30:35,600 --> 00:30:39,810
all with what you would call
organized crime connections,
658
00:30:40,205 --> 00:30:44,517
were looted by the brokerage
of Braddock and Todd.
659
00:30:44,676 --> 00:30:48,647
In proper parlance, Bruce
Valentine cooked the books.
660
00:30:49,181 --> 00:30:53,687
This Valentine told my son Joey that
these stock schemes were making money.
661
00:30:53,752 --> 00:30:56,995
Meantime, the guy's stealing
from Peter to pay Paul.
662
00:30:57,689 --> 00:30:59,362
What about Mitchel Simms?
663
00:30:59,758 --> 00:31:01,260
Valentine whacked him.
664
00:31:01,326 --> 00:31:02,634
Convenient for you.
665
00:31:02,694 --> 00:31:06,574
Hey, I'm gonna hit Simms, I ain't
gonna make it look like a suicide.
666
00:31:06,632 --> 00:31:08,407
Defeats the purpose.
667
00:31:08,834 --> 00:31:10,040
You don't believe me?
668
00:31:10,102 --> 00:31:12,048
Check your records
on the .38.
669
00:31:12,104 --> 00:31:13,412
What will we find?
670
00:31:13,472 --> 00:31:15,577
Well, let's just say
it wasn't fresh off the shelf.
671
00:31:16,575 --> 00:31:19,419
Valentine asked my son Joey for
a gun a couple of months ago.
672
00:31:20,245 --> 00:31:23,624
Said he was afraid to be
carrying so much cash around.
673
00:31:24,116 --> 00:31:27,825
Turns out it was my cash.
674
00:31:31,656 --> 00:31:35,934
I'm surprised that Dantoni isn't
asking us to take a blood oath.
675
00:31:35,994 --> 00:31:39,203
Fact is our forensic
accountant backs up his claim.
676
00:31:41,400 --> 00:31:45,473
The pilfered brokerage accounts
were established 25 years ago.
677
00:31:46,004 --> 00:31:47,642
You're telling me
the money's legit?
678
00:31:48,373 --> 00:31:51,411
I'm telling you there's no way
to prove that it isn't.
679
00:31:51,476 --> 00:31:54,582
There's also no way a lawyer like
Richard Patton gets involved
680
00:31:54,646 --> 00:31:56,023
if the money wasn't clean.
681
00:31:56,081 --> 00:31:57,321
What about the .38?
682
00:31:57,382 --> 00:32:00,363
Ballistics traced it back to an
underworld slaying three years ago.
683
00:32:00,585 --> 00:32:02,531
Fine. Mob gun, mob murder.
684
00:32:02,587 --> 00:32:04,726
CARMICHAEL: Except that we wouldn't
have known about the slaying
685
00:32:04,790 --> 00:32:06,394
if it weren't for Dantoni.
686
00:32:06,458 --> 00:32:10,372
Joey Jr. will testify he gave the
gun to Valentine six months before
687
00:32:10,429 --> 00:32:11,669
in front of witnesses,
688
00:32:11,730 --> 00:32:13,710
two of whom had no record.
689
00:32:13,765 --> 00:32:15,767
None of us are happy
about this, Adam.
690
00:32:16,001 --> 00:32:18,607
But if Valentine hired Simms
to kill Alvarez
691
00:32:18,670 --> 00:32:21,844
and then killed Simms himself,
he deserves the death penalty.
692
00:32:22,941 --> 00:32:26,821
So we end up performing
our first hit for the mob.
693
00:32:27,546 --> 00:32:28,650
(SCOFFS)
694
00:32:28,713 --> 00:32:31,421
We've never drawn a distinction
between crime victims before.
695
00:32:32,451 --> 00:32:33,953
Crime victims.
696
00:32:34,753 --> 00:32:37,734
And what do they want for all these
little tidbits of information?
697
00:32:38,290 --> 00:32:41,032
Consideration for Joey Jr.
on the stock scheme.
698
00:32:42,894 --> 00:32:44,805
Crime victims my elbow.
699
00:32:49,000 --> 00:32:51,708
Bruce came to me and said
he had a group of investors
700
00:32:51,770 --> 00:32:55,343
interested in setting up companies
and then taking them public
701
00:32:55,407 --> 00:32:56,681
through the brokerage.
702
00:32:57,342 --> 00:33:00,619
When did you learn these companies were
actually fronts for organized crime?
703
00:33:00,779 --> 00:33:02,520
It was pretty clear
at our first meeting.
704
00:33:02,581 --> 00:33:03,992
JACK: How did the plan work?
705
00:33:04,049 --> 00:33:08,088
Bruce set up these companies, then
used money from the brokerage accounts
706
00:33:08,153 --> 00:33:10,793
to show assets
to the investment banks.
707
00:33:11,423 --> 00:33:13,733
Then he took them
public through my firm.
708
00:33:13,859 --> 00:33:14,997
And what happened?
709
00:33:15,060 --> 00:33:19,736
Bruce created markets for the stock through
various chat rooms on the Internet
710
00:33:19,798 --> 00:33:22,870
and through our association
with other retailers.
711
00:33:22,934 --> 00:33:24,504
And the stock prices went up?
712
00:33:24,703 --> 00:33:26,011
They skyrocketed.
713
00:33:26,071 --> 00:33:28,950
So how did Mr. Valentine
end up losing the money?
714
00:33:29,007 --> 00:33:31,920
Mr. Dantoni and the others
were insiders.
715
00:33:31,977 --> 00:33:34,583
Legally, they couldn't sell
their shares right away.
716
00:33:34,646 --> 00:33:38,150
While they were waiting,
the market had a correction.
717
00:33:38,583 --> 00:33:41,223
Bruce just wasn't able to
sustain the price long enough.
718
00:33:41,820 --> 00:33:45,063
He started using the companies
own cash to buy more stock.
719
00:33:45,123 --> 00:33:46,602
Eventually, he lost everything.
720
00:33:46,658 --> 00:33:49,468
How did he manage to hide
this from you and the others?
721
00:33:49,661 --> 00:33:51,766
By using false
financial statements
722
00:33:51,830 --> 00:33:55,141
and a variety of other
accounts to cover the losses.
723
00:33:55,267 --> 00:33:57,008
But Sean Alvarez found out?
724
00:33:59,671 --> 00:34:02,481
I don't know what Sean knew,
725
00:34:02,941 --> 00:34:05,512
just that Bruce said
we had to pay him off.
726
00:34:05,610 --> 00:34:07,021
And did you?
727
00:34:08,647 --> 00:34:11,059
Yes. Bruce planted an e-mail
728
00:34:11,116 --> 00:34:14,529
in order to create an
harassment claim against us.
729
00:34:15,020 --> 00:34:18,297
Then we used the insurance
money to pay Sean.
730
00:34:19,457 --> 00:34:21,061
Nothing further.
731
00:34:24,596 --> 00:34:28,738
You didn't object to this
alleged stock scheme, did you?
732
00:34:30,735 --> 00:34:31,770
No.
733
00:34:31,837 --> 00:34:35,546
To using mob money
to further your own aims?
734
00:34:37,142 --> 00:34:38,485
No, I didn't.
735
00:34:38,543 --> 00:34:40,853
Even to committing
insurance fraud?
736
00:34:43,148 --> 00:34:45,059
I thought I had no choice.
737
00:34:47,219 --> 00:34:48,994
I'm sure you didn't.
738
00:34:49,521 --> 00:34:52,001
In fact, you thought there was
a chance you might be killed.
739
00:34:52,791 --> 00:34:53,792
Yes.
740
00:34:53,892 --> 00:34:57,237
Killed by the same people
the district attorney's office
741
00:34:57,295 --> 00:35:00,037
has paraded in front
of this jury as crime victims?
742
00:35:00,098 --> 00:35:01,133
Objection.
743
00:35:01,199 --> 00:35:02,473
Sustained.
744
00:35:04,803 --> 00:35:10,549
Now, my client had no authority to
orchestrate an insurance payoff, did he?
745
00:35:11,376 --> 00:35:12,411
No.
746
00:35:12,477 --> 00:35:17,324
In fact, the agreement to keep silent was
between your brokerage and Mr. Alvarez.
747
00:35:17,382 --> 00:35:20,022
Mr. Valentine's name wasn't
even mentioned, was it?
748
00:35:20,085 --> 00:35:21,860
No, it... It wasn't.
749
00:35:22,721 --> 00:35:24,098
By the way.
750
00:35:24,890 --> 00:35:28,099
You lied about all this
to the police, didn't you?
751
00:35:29,194 --> 00:35:30,264
Yes.
752
00:35:30,362 --> 00:35:34,003
Because you thought they would think
that it was you who hired Mr. Simms,
753
00:35:34,866 --> 00:35:36,072
wasn't it?
754
00:35:37,135 --> 00:35:38,944
Seems to me,
Mr. Braddock,
755
00:35:39,004 --> 00:35:41,245
you had as much reason
to see these people dead
756
00:35:41,306 --> 00:35:43,343
as any of the People's
witnesses in this case.
757
00:35:43,408 --> 00:35:44,409
Objection.
758
00:35:46,278 --> 00:35:47,882
Nothing further.
759
00:35:52,417 --> 00:35:56,160
I let my son run my business
interest while I was in Florida.
760
00:35:56,755 --> 00:35:58,757
Famous last words, right?
761
00:35:59,291 --> 00:36:01,066
JACK: What happened?
762
00:36:02,194 --> 00:36:05,368
He started trading
with this Valentine character.
763
00:36:05,831 --> 00:36:07,777
He and Joey were friends
from high school.
764
00:36:08,867 --> 00:36:12,280
They cooked up some scheme where
they'd set up a company with Joey's...
765
00:36:13,171 --> 00:36:14,445
My money.
766
00:36:15,407 --> 00:36:17,478
Then hype the stock
and get out with a profit.
767
00:36:17,943 --> 00:36:19,445
You were kept informed of this?
768
00:36:19,678 --> 00:36:22,852
Are you kidding me? I'm the
generation that made it.
769
00:36:22,914 --> 00:36:24,791
My son's the one who spends it.
770
00:36:25,317 --> 00:36:28,730
We've heard testimony from
several witnesses and your son
771
00:36:28,787 --> 00:36:31,700
that a great deal of money
was lost by them.
772
00:36:31,923 --> 00:36:33,994
How much money was lost by you?
773
00:36:34,059 --> 00:36:35,970
Little over 4 million.
774
00:36:37,696 --> 00:36:39,801
Mr. Valentine's lawyer
suggests
775
00:36:39,864 --> 00:36:43,835
your son was responsible for the murders
of Mitchel Simms and Sean Alvarez.
776
00:36:44,302 --> 00:36:45,406
Not true.
777
00:36:45,470 --> 00:36:47,279
How do you know that?
778
00:36:48,840 --> 00:36:51,218
Because my son didn't have
the authority.
779
00:36:52,344 --> 00:36:53,789
The authority?
780
00:36:54,813 --> 00:36:56,690
I'll rely on
my constitutional right
781
00:36:56,748 --> 00:37:00,127
against self-incrimination
and just leave it at that.
782
00:37:04,623 --> 00:37:06,227
Nothing further.
783
00:37:09,794 --> 00:37:12,240
Your son didn't have
the authority?
784
00:37:13,064 --> 00:37:14,543
That's right.
785
00:37:15,266 --> 00:37:16,609
Meaning you do?
786
00:37:16,668 --> 00:37:21,742
Meaning if something's gonna be done in
my name, I have the final say-so. Yeah.
787
00:37:22,607 --> 00:37:26,783
Is this some type of organization
that we're unaware of, Mr. Dantoni?
788
00:37:28,880 --> 00:37:31,622
Oh, I think you know what
I'm talking about, Counselor.
789
00:37:31,683 --> 00:37:35,529
Yes, I think I do. I just want
to make sure that the jury does.
790
00:37:35,720 --> 00:37:37,256
This is a chart
791
00:37:38,290 --> 00:37:39,291
of all the crimes
792
00:37:39,357 --> 00:37:43,567
some of the People's witnesses have
been charged with or convicted of.
793
00:37:43,628 --> 00:37:44,629
Objection.
794
00:37:44,696 --> 00:37:45,970
Overruled.
795
00:37:47,866 --> 00:37:50,403
Now, let's see,
amongst other things,
796
00:37:50,468 --> 00:37:54,280
murder, racketeering, bribery,
797
00:37:54,339 --> 00:37:56,148
(SIGHS) assault, arson,
798
00:37:56,207 --> 00:37:57,481
jury tampering.
799
00:37:58,343 --> 00:38:00,254
Did I miss anything,
Mr. Dantoni?
800
00:38:00,311 --> 00:38:03,622
Yeah. That I was acquitted
of the bribery charge.
801
00:38:05,750 --> 00:38:07,889
I'm sorry. You're right.
802
00:38:08,987 --> 00:38:12,560
But then that's what led up to the
jury tampering indictment, isn't it?
803
00:38:13,992 --> 00:38:17,201
In fact, every witness
against Mr. Valentine
804
00:38:17,596 --> 00:38:20,406
has been convicted of one felony
or another, haven't they?
805
00:38:20,465 --> 00:38:21,500
Objection.
806
00:38:21,566 --> 00:38:22,977
That I'll sustain.
807
00:38:23,535 --> 00:38:26,175
We paid our debt
to society, Counselor.
808
00:38:26,604 --> 00:38:28,845
It's time for your client
to pony up.
809
00:38:29,941 --> 00:38:31,943
You say you lost $4 million?
810
00:38:33,044 --> 00:38:34,079
Yeah.
811
00:38:34,145 --> 00:38:36,591
Where'd you get that money
from, Mr. Dantoni?
812
00:38:37,849 --> 00:38:40,261
My accountant can better
answer that question.
813
00:38:40,652 --> 00:38:42,859
It was from illegal
activities, wasn't it?
814
00:38:43,521 --> 00:38:45,057
Absolutely not.
815
00:38:45,724 --> 00:38:47,601
Come on, Mr. Dantoni.
816
00:38:47,826 --> 00:38:51,296
You were so honest with us
before about your authority.
817
00:38:52,063 --> 00:38:53,599
Why be shy now?
818
00:38:53,765 --> 00:38:55,108
Objection.
819
00:38:56,267 --> 00:38:58,042
STOKELY: Doesn't really matter
if he answers.
820
00:38:59,004 --> 00:39:02,850
Like he said, "We all know what
we're talking about here."
821
00:39:09,180 --> 00:39:11,285
The first time I had a witness
take the Fifth Amendment
822
00:39:11,383 --> 00:39:13,329
and didn't try to make him
pay for it.
823
00:39:13,418 --> 00:39:16,888
Never say never. We already
have a defendant to convict.
824
00:39:17,455 --> 00:39:19,435
Valentine's taking
the stand tomorrow.
825
00:39:19,491 --> 00:39:22,097
He'll try and blame
the mob for the murders.
826
00:39:22,160 --> 00:39:24,697
Time to make your bones,
consigliere.
827
00:39:27,699 --> 00:39:28,905
(SIGHS)
828
00:39:31,870 --> 00:39:34,476
We have Dantoni
losing 4 million, right?
829
00:39:34,539 --> 00:39:36,644
4,000,000.
830
00:39:36,708 --> 00:39:39,712
And the other eight accounts, Dantoni's
associates, how much all told?
831
00:39:40,678 --> 00:39:42,385
Give or take another 9 million.
832
00:39:42,714 --> 00:39:45,661
So that's 13 million
invested with Valentine.
833
00:39:49,087 --> 00:39:50,225
Something wrong?
834
00:39:50,789 --> 00:39:53,030
I just added up all the capital
funneled through this thing
835
00:39:53,091 --> 00:39:54,832
and I get 15 million.
836
00:39:55,660 --> 00:39:57,401
We're 2 million short.
837
00:39:57,595 --> 00:40:00,235
This guy just
doesn't know how to stop.
838
00:40:01,065 --> 00:40:02,738
Yes, I took money.
839
00:40:03,301 --> 00:40:05,338
And, yes, I paid Sean
and Mitchel to keep quiet.
840
00:40:05,403 --> 00:40:08,509
But I never murdered anyone.
841
00:40:09,507 --> 00:40:13,216
You never hired Mitchel Simms
to kill Sean Alvarez?
842
00:40:13,711 --> 00:40:14,815
Why would I?
843
00:40:14,879 --> 00:40:17,985
Sean would've gotten in almost as much
trouble as I would if he would've talked.
844
00:40:18,082 --> 00:40:20,062
No. The Dantonis.
845
00:40:20,852 --> 00:40:22,695
They're the ones who kill.
846
00:40:23,188 --> 00:40:25,634
And now they're
trying to blame me.
847
00:40:26,758 --> 00:40:28,567
No further questions.
848
00:40:34,532 --> 00:40:37,536
Standing over the lifeless
body of Sean Alvarez,
849
00:40:37,602 --> 00:40:41,311
you lied to two
New York City detectives
850
00:40:41,372 --> 00:40:45,013
when you told them that you knew
nothing about his murder, didn't you?
851
00:40:45,443 --> 00:40:46,547
I was scared.
852
00:40:46,611 --> 00:40:48,284
Scared of the mob?
853
00:40:48,646 --> 00:40:49,647
That's right.
854
00:40:49,714 --> 00:40:52,388
But not too scared
to do business with them?
855
00:40:53,251 --> 00:40:56,596
When did this fear of the mob
you say caused you to lie
856
00:40:56,654 --> 00:40:59,658
first begin to afflict you,
Mr. Valentine?
857
00:41:00,792 --> 00:41:02,135
I can't really say.
858
00:41:02,460 --> 00:41:05,873
Seems to me it must have been when you
realized that those stock scams of yours
859
00:41:06,364 --> 00:41:07,843
weren't going to work.
860
00:41:07,899 --> 00:41:09,207
I told you, I can't say.
861
00:41:09,267 --> 00:41:12,077
Well, isn't that when you asked Joey Jr.
for a gun?
862
00:41:12,136 --> 00:41:14,013
I didn't ask Joey for a gun.
863
00:41:14,072 --> 00:41:17,519
Two witnesses, with absolutely
nothing to fear, say that you did.
864
00:41:17,842 --> 00:41:18,912
They're lying.
865
00:41:18,977 --> 00:41:21,924
Or maybe it was when you committed insurance fraud?
Was that when it started?
866
00:41:21,980 --> 00:41:23,220
Sean was blackmailing me.
867
00:41:23,281 --> 00:41:26,888
But Mitchel Simms wasn't blackmailing
you about the mob, was he?
868
00:41:26,951 --> 00:41:28,794
And you paid him off too,
didn't you?
869
00:41:29,854 --> 00:41:30,855
Yes.
870
00:41:30,922 --> 00:41:33,732
So if it wasn't fear of
the mob that made you do it,
871
00:41:33,791 --> 00:41:35,771
what was it, Mr. Valentine?
872
00:41:37,295 --> 00:41:38,899
I don't know what
you're talking about.
873
00:41:38,963 --> 00:41:41,034
I'm talking about opportunity.
874
00:41:41,099 --> 00:41:43,511
That's the name of the game
in your business, isn't it?
875
00:41:43,568 --> 00:41:46,708
Recognizing opportunity
and taking advantage of it?
876
00:41:46,771 --> 00:41:48,114
I suppose.
877
00:41:48,706 --> 00:41:52,620
How much of the mob's money did
you say you lost, Mr. Valentine?
878
00:41:53,244 --> 00:41:55,246
$13 million.
879
00:41:55,346 --> 00:41:58,793
Yet we found that
15 million in capital
880
00:41:59,217 --> 00:42:01,163
was funneled through
those accounts.
881
00:42:01,219 --> 00:42:05,690
So where did that extra
$2 million come from?
882
00:42:09,027 --> 00:42:10,233
I don't know.
883
00:42:10,928 --> 00:42:13,932
It came from the insurance
settlement, didn't it?
884
00:42:14,666 --> 00:42:17,408
You never gave the money
to Sean Alvarez.
885
00:42:19,237 --> 00:42:22,912
You stole it and used it
for your stock scheme.
886
00:42:23,875 --> 00:42:26,048
That's why you had to kill
Sean Alvarez, isn't it? No.
887
00:42:26,110 --> 00:42:30,456
There is no record of $2
million ever being paid
888
00:42:30,949 --> 00:42:33,589
from Braddock and Todd
to Sean Alvarez.
889
00:42:34,018 --> 00:42:36,362
Another opportunity presented
itself and you took it.
890
00:42:36,421 --> 00:42:37,695
Isn't that right,
Mr. Valentine?
891
00:42:37,755 --> 00:42:38,790
No.
892
00:42:38,856 --> 00:42:42,360
I think you arranged
to meet Mitchel Simms.
893
00:42:42,594 --> 00:42:45,336
I think you used
his desperation
894
00:42:45,463 --> 00:42:47,272
to force him to kill
Sean Alvarez.
895
00:42:47,332 --> 00:42:48,333
Objection.
896
00:42:48,399 --> 00:42:51,312
And later, you lured him
to the airport and killed him
897
00:42:51,369 --> 00:42:54,111
with the gun given to you
by Joey Dantoni,
898
00:42:54,172 --> 00:42:55,708
knowing that you could
blame the mob.
899
00:42:55,773 --> 00:42:57,446
That's not true!
(STAMMERING) I didn't.
900
00:42:57,508 --> 00:43:00,318
Stock fraud, insurance fraud,
payoffs, finally murder.
901
00:43:00,378 --> 00:43:02,255
All crimes of opportunity.
902
00:43:02,313 --> 00:43:04,725
But you're all out
of chances now.
903
00:43:06,718 --> 00:43:08,755
Aren't you, Mr. Valentine?
904
00:43:30,675 --> 00:43:31,779
Members of the jury
905
00:43:31,843 --> 00:43:34,483
I am advised by the clerk that
you have reached a verdict?
906
00:43:35,246 --> 00:43:36,486
We have, Your Honor.
907
00:43:36,681 --> 00:43:38,558
JUDGE: Please read it.
908
00:43:38,650 --> 00:43:40,755
In the matter of
The People v. Valentine,
909
00:43:41,018 --> 00:43:43,498
on the count of murder
in the first degree,
910
00:43:43,554 --> 00:43:46,057
we find the defendant guilty.
911
00:43:46,124 --> 00:43:47,762
(PEOPLE MURMURING)
912
00:43:51,029 --> 00:43:54,169
Members of the jury, you are
excused until Monday morning,
913
00:43:54,232 --> 00:43:57,645
whereupon the death penalty phase
of this trial shall begin.
914
00:43:58,503 --> 00:44:00,107
(GAVEL BANGS)
915
00:44:09,447 --> 00:44:10,482
So?
916
00:44:13,251 --> 00:44:15,891
The jury gave Valentine
the death penalty.
917
00:44:17,121 --> 00:44:18,794
They were out
for less than an hour.
918
00:44:18,856 --> 00:44:21,200
Nothing redeemable
about Wall Street.
919
00:44:21,259 --> 00:44:23,034
What about Center Street?
920
00:44:23,094 --> 00:44:24,095
Oh.
921
00:44:24,629 --> 00:44:26,506
Now you have scruples?
922
00:44:27,532 --> 00:44:29,512
We avenged Sean Alvarez.
923
00:44:30,968 --> 00:44:33,278
I still have to
call the family.
924
00:44:33,704 --> 00:44:35,047
Which one?
925
00:44:35,097 --> 00:44:39,647
