00:00:01,977 --> 00:00:03,277
Previously on Reckless...
2
00:00:03,277 --> 00:00:05,750
Ms. Marcus is suing the city of Charleston
3
00:00:05,750 --> 00:00:07,357
- for wrongful termination...
- Okay, Jamie.
4
00:00:07,395 --> 00:00:08,364
- And defamation of character.
- Game on.
5
00:00:08,364 --> 00:00:09,301
They have a tape.
6
00:00:09,301 --> 00:00:10,570
It's footage of you
7
00:00:10,570 --> 00:00:11,687
and three other men
8
00:00:11,687 --> 00:00:13,854
having sex on a police car.
9
00:00:13,856 --> 00:00:15,456
They must've slipped something into my beer.
10
00:00:15,458 --> 00:00:16,540
We had something.
11
00:00:16,542 --> 00:00:17,758
Yeah, we did.
12
00:00:17,760 --> 00:00:20,377
Until you decided to share
me with your buddies.
13
00:00:20,379 --> 00:00:22,763
They offered me a half a million
14
00:00:22,765 --> 00:00:24,131
to settle the case.
15
00:00:27,302 --> 00:00:28,436
Screw the settlement.
16
00:00:28,438 --> 00:00:29,770
Let's fight.
17
00:00:29,772 --> 00:00:32,606
Was there ever a problem with documents
18
00:00:32,608 --> 00:00:34,442
disappearing from this office?
19
00:00:34,444 --> 00:00:35,976
- All the time.
- You think that's what
20
00:00:35,978 --> 00:00:37,895
happened with Lee Anne Marcus's
statement of complaint?
21
00:00:37,897 --> 00:00:40,064
Terry: I do know something about Arliss.
22
00:00:40,066 --> 00:00:42,149
Search team found something
not far from where
23
00:00:42,151 --> 00:00:43,734
his truck ended up.
24
00:00:43,736 --> 00:00:45,152
Mayor Fortnum.
25
00:00:45,754 --> 00:00:47,238
I like the sound of that.
26
00:00:47,240 --> 00:00:48,572
The deal was for $13 million.
27
00:00:48,574 --> 00:00:50,491
There's a million dollars missing.
28
00:00:50,493 --> 00:00:51,459
I don't have your money.
29
00:00:51,461 --> 00:00:53,461
I'm replacing juror number eight
30
00:00:53,463 --> 00:00:54,912
with first alternate Nicolette Graham.
31
00:00:54,914 --> 00:00:56,630
It worked. I'm on the jury.
32
00:00:56,632 --> 00:00:58,582
I'll make sure you get the
outcome you're looking for.
33
00:00:58,584 --> 00:00:59,900
Roy: When this is over,
34
00:00:59,902 --> 00:01:01,752
I'm gonna make you fall in love with me.
35
00:01:04,272 --> 00:01:06,507
("The Law of Love" by Kill It Kid playing)
36
00:01:15,267 --> 00:01:20,938
Broken curfew at the pearly gate
37
00:01:20,940 --> 00:01:24,575
The road is silence
38
00:01:24,577 --> 00:01:27,761
At the edge of shame
39
00:01:27,763 --> 00:01:33,200
So I tasted the breath of God
40
00:01:33,202 --> 00:01:35,336
And the empty charges
41
00:01:35,338 --> 00:01:38,205
Of the firing squad
42
00:01:38,207 --> 00:01:39,840
They say
43
00:01:39,842 --> 00:01:43,294
The law of love
44
00:01:43,296 --> 00:01:45,846
Will keep you safe
45
00:01:47,415 --> 00:01:50,134
Ooh, ooh...
46
00:01:54,105 --> 00:01:55,306
Oh, my God.
47
00:01:56,057 --> 00:01:57,808
Where did you get this?
48
00:01:59,277 --> 00:02:01,111
Oh, don't tell me it's from that gun deal,
49
00:02:01,113 --> 00:02:02,479
where you got shot.
50
00:02:02,481 --> 00:02:04,031
All you gotta know is it's mine.
51
00:02:04,033 --> 00:02:05,482
Or ours,
52
00:02:05,484 --> 00:02:06,901
- if you run away with me.
- Will you stop?
53
00:02:06,903 --> 00:02:08,485
We already discussed this.
54
00:02:08,487 --> 00:02:10,454
That was just talk. This is real.
55
00:02:10,456 --> 00:02:11,655
A million dollars of real.
56
00:02:13,992 --> 00:02:14,992
All right...
57
00:02:14,994 --> 00:02:16,544
Why take a gamble with the lawsuit
58
00:02:16,546 --> 00:02:18,996
when all the money you need is right here?
59
00:02:20,715 --> 00:02:22,833
I've gone through a lot, Terry.
60
00:02:22,835 --> 00:02:24,969
Lost too much. I can't just give up.
61
00:02:24,971 --> 00:02:26,921
I mean, it's not just about
62
00:02:26,923 --> 00:02:29,506
the money anymore.
63
00:02:29,508 --> 00:02:31,508
I want to win.
64
00:02:36,731 --> 00:02:39,650
I just want you to be happy.
65
00:02:39,652 --> 00:02:40,901
I will be.
66
00:02:40,903 --> 00:02:43,854
When this is all over.
67
00:02:45,607 --> 00:02:49,360
And then what about... us?
68
00:02:53,365 --> 00:02:54,365
I gotta go.
69
00:02:54,367 --> 00:02:55,699
I gotta be in court soon.
70
00:02:58,370 --> 00:02:59,536
Hey.
71
00:03:02,958 --> 00:03:05,125
Good luck.
72
00:03:12,417 --> 00:03:16,387
If I had a heart, I would love you
73
00:03:17,472 --> 00:03:21,892
If I had a heart, I could change
74
00:03:22,978 --> 00:03:27,481
Between all up there and nothing
75
00:03:28,984 --> 00:03:32,236
So he'll be too vain
76
00:03:32,238 --> 00:03:34,538
77
00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:58,095
Oh, here's that brief you requested.
78
00:03:58,097 --> 00:03:59,897
Roy: Okay, thank you.
79
00:03:59,899 --> 00:04:02,816
Thank you.
80
00:04:04,402 --> 00:04:06,020
Morning, ladies.
81
00:04:06,022 --> 00:04:08,439
Roy.
82
00:04:09,607 --> 00:04:11,442
May I have a word, Ms. Sawyer?
83
00:04:13,662 --> 00:04:16,113
I'll see you upstairs.
84
00:04:16,115 --> 00:04:17,331
Okay.
85
00:04:25,290 --> 00:04:27,624
Have you thought about
what I said last night?
86
00:04:27,626 --> 00:04:30,794
I think "obsessed over" is a better term.
87
00:04:30,796 --> 00:04:32,663
I meant every word.
88
00:04:32,665 --> 00:04:34,014
I don't doubt it.
89
00:04:34,016 --> 00:04:35,632
And...?
90
00:04:35,634 --> 00:04:38,218
Maybe I'll tell Judge Moss
that we've decided to settle.
91
00:04:38,220 --> 00:04:40,604
There.
92
00:04:40,606 --> 00:04:42,356
- Trial over.
- Well, when it is over,
93
00:04:42,358 --> 00:04:45,642
I'm going on a long vacation.
94
00:04:45,644 --> 00:04:47,111
You been to Paris?
95
00:04:47,113 --> 00:04:48,946
I've never even been out of the country.
96
00:04:48,948 --> 00:04:49,863
Then it'll be
97
00:04:49,865 --> 00:04:52,232
the first time for both of us.
98
00:04:55,570 --> 00:04:58,405
If you're trying to throw me off my game...
99
00:04:58,407 --> 00:05:00,624
It's working.
100
00:05:00,626 --> 00:05:02,659
So it's a game we're playing?
101
00:05:02,661 --> 00:05:05,713
And I am tired of following the rules.
102
00:05:05,715 --> 00:05:08,832
Me, too.
103
00:05:10,835 --> 00:05:13,170
All rise.
104
00:05:13,172 --> 00:05:17,174
The circuit court of common
pleas is now in session.
105
00:05:17,176 --> 00:05:19,676
The honorable judge gertrude moss presiding.
106
00:05:19,678 --> 00:05:21,011
Please be seated.
107
00:05:22,931 --> 00:05:24,231
We are gathered to hear the case
108
00:05:24,233 --> 00:05:26,316
of Lee Anne Marcus v.
The City of Charleston,
109
00:05:26,318 --> 00:05:28,685
on the charges of wrongful termination
110
00:05:28,687 --> 00:05:30,821
and defamation of character.
111
00:05:30,823 --> 00:05:34,274
The jury has been sworn in
and given their instructions.
112
00:05:34,276 --> 00:05:35,776
Ms. Sawyer...
113
00:05:36,694 --> 00:05:38,912
You may begin your opening statement.
114
00:05:38,914 --> 00:05:40,364
Thank you, Your Honor.
115
00:05:40,366 --> 00:05:45,035
And thank you, members of the jury.
116
00:05:45,037 --> 00:05:46,587
My name is Jamie Sawyer,
117
00:05:46,589 --> 00:05:48,756
and I am representing the plaintiff
118
00:05:48,758 --> 00:05:50,290
who you see before you...
119
00:05:50,292 --> 00:05:51,959
Lee Anne Marcus.
120
00:05:51,961 --> 00:05:53,710
Good morning, y'all.
121
00:05:53,712 --> 00:05:55,879
My name is Roy Rayder.
122
00:05:55,881 --> 00:05:59,767
I am the city attorney of Charleston.
123
00:05:59,769 --> 00:06:02,386
I will be defending both the city
124
00:06:02,388 --> 00:06:06,223
and the police department
against this claim.
125
00:06:06,225 --> 00:06:08,942
Your responsibility here today
and throughout the trial:
126
00:06:08,944 --> 00:06:11,812
To determine whether my client
127
00:06:11,814 --> 00:06:15,232
was indeed defamed by her coworkers...
128
00:06:15,234 --> 00:06:16,817
And whether the police department
129
00:06:16,819 --> 00:06:19,286
was well within their rights
130
00:06:19,288 --> 00:06:22,906
to release the plaintiff from employment.
131
00:06:22,908 --> 00:06:23,907
(Sneezes)
132
00:06:23,909 --> 00:06:26,410
God bless you, ma'am.
133
00:06:28,797 --> 00:06:30,964
It isn't about my client's personal life
134
00:06:30,966 --> 00:06:33,083
or her sexual proclivities.
135
00:06:33,085 --> 00:06:35,419
It's about a person
136
00:06:35,421 --> 00:06:36,920
just like me and you.
137
00:06:36,922 --> 00:06:39,723
A person wronged by the system.
138
00:06:39,725 --> 00:06:42,476
Everyone can get fired.
139
00:06:42,478 --> 00:06:46,563
But not everyone goes on talk shows.
140
00:06:46,565 --> 00:06:52,436
She's the one who decided to
make her personal life public.
141
00:06:52,438 --> 00:06:55,189
But now...
142
00:06:55,191 --> 00:06:58,442
Now she doesn't want you
to know the whole story.
143
00:06:58,444 --> 00:07:00,577
That doesn't seem fair to me.
144
00:07:00,579 --> 00:07:04,531
You will see how a pattern
of corruption exists
145
00:07:04,533 --> 00:07:07,000
within the Charleston police department.
146
00:07:07,002 --> 00:07:08,619
You will see how the plaintiff
147
00:07:08,621 --> 00:07:11,622
has taken advantage of the legal system,
148
00:07:11,624 --> 00:07:13,674
wasting tax dollars
149
00:07:13,676 --> 00:07:17,461
on this unwarranted, frivolous lawsuit...
150
00:07:17,463 --> 00:07:18,629
Objection!
151
00:07:18,631 --> 00:07:19,847
- Jamie, you can't...
- Jamie: Yes.
152
00:07:19,849 --> 00:07:20,797
I can.
153
00:07:20,799 --> 00:07:21,849
(Gavel bangs) Overruled!
154
00:07:21,851 --> 00:07:23,016
Counselors, I need
155
00:07:23,018 --> 00:07:25,018
to see you in my chambers.
156
00:07:25,020 --> 00:07:26,970
Now.
157
00:07:33,528 --> 00:07:34,945
(Door slams)
158
00:07:34,947 --> 00:07:36,480
Are those heels so high
159
00:07:36,482 --> 00:07:38,482
you're getting deprived
of oxygen, Ms. Sawyer?
160
00:07:38,484 --> 00:07:41,034
I've warned you time and time again
161
00:07:41,036 --> 00:07:43,370
about pulling your tricks in my courtroom.
162
00:07:43,372 --> 00:07:45,239
80% of jurors make up their minds
163
00:07:45,241 --> 00:07:46,540
during opening statements, Your Honor.
164
00:07:46,542 --> 00:07:49,960
They need to know that this
is not a frivolous case.
165
00:07:49,962 --> 00:07:51,578
Object all you want.
166
00:07:51,580 --> 00:07:53,463
Your likability factor just plummeted
167
00:07:53,465 --> 00:07:54,831
for interrupting me.
168
00:07:54,833 --> 00:07:56,967
Don't get oh so high and mighty, Roy Rayder.
169
00:07:56,969 --> 00:08:00,420
Calling opposing counsel
"Jamie" in open court?
170
00:08:00,422 --> 00:08:04,007
Look, I know the two of you
have eyes for one another.
171
00:08:04,009 --> 00:08:06,059
Have to be blind as a
mole rat not to see it.
172
00:08:06,061 --> 00:08:08,061
And my courtroom will not be
173
00:08:08,063 --> 00:08:10,180
a place for you to engage in foreplay.
174
00:08:10,182 --> 00:08:13,600
If I even see the slightest
hint of impropriety,
175
00:08:13,602 --> 00:08:15,686
I will declare a mistrial
176
00:08:15,688 --> 00:08:17,571
and get you disbarred so fast
177
00:08:17,573 --> 00:08:19,072
you'll be serving warm beer to frat boys
178
00:08:19,074 --> 00:08:21,191
down at shem creek before
you even know what hit you.
179
00:08:21,193 --> 00:08:27,030
How clear do I make myself, counselors?
180
00:08:27,032 --> 00:08:28,615
Very.
181
00:08:29,367 --> 00:08:31,251
Crystal.
182

Synced by emmasan

183
00:08:52,441 --> 00:08:54,434
Jamie: I call as my first witness
184
00:08:54,434 --> 00:08:56,885
the deputy chief of police, Holland Knox.
185
00:08:56,887 --> 00:09:00,555
How long have you been in your
current position, Officer Knox?
186
00:09:00,557 --> 00:09:02,390
About a year and a half now.
187
00:09:02,392 --> 00:09:03,725
So not for very long.
188
00:09:03,727 --> 00:09:05,860
And are you the person
189
00:09:05,862 --> 00:09:07,812
who fired my client, Lee Anne Marcus?
190
00:09:07,814 --> 00:09:09,647
Yes.
191
00:09:09,649 --> 00:09:10,815
May I ask on what grounds?
192
00:09:10,817 --> 00:09:12,534
Non-exemplary performance.
193
00:09:12,536 --> 00:09:14,035
I see.
194
00:09:14,037 --> 00:09:16,538
I'd like to show, for the record,
195
00:09:16,540 --> 00:09:18,740
plaintiff's exhibit one.
196
00:09:18,742 --> 00:09:22,076
This is my client's most
recent performance review.
197
00:09:22,078 --> 00:09:24,546
It covers everything from marksmanship
198
00:09:24,548 --> 00:09:27,081
to knowledge of the law to dependability.
199
00:09:27,083 --> 00:09:29,584
Is that your signature?
200
00:09:32,421 --> 00:09:34,055
Yes, it is.
201
00:09:34,057 --> 00:09:35,924
Jamie: So you are fully aware
202
00:09:35,926 --> 00:09:38,309
that my client scored 95 out of
203
00:09:38,311 --> 00:09:40,478
a possible 112 points,
204
00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:43,264
placing her in the "very good" category.
205
00:09:44,483 --> 00:09:47,485
Now, as you stated, the plaintiff was let go
206
00:09:47,487 --> 00:09:50,438
due to "non-exemplary performance."
207
00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:53,858
Now, are there areas outside a typical
208
00:09:53,860 --> 00:09:57,495
performance review that are measured
209
00:09:57,497 --> 00:10:00,081
in order to judge an employee's
210
00:10:00,083 --> 00:10:03,251
overall value within your department?
211
00:10:03,253 --> 00:10:04,953
Yes, there are.
212
00:10:04,955 --> 00:10:07,839
And so what other factors
influenced your decision?
213
00:10:07,841 --> 00:10:10,308
Well, from the moment she got the job,
214
00:10:10,310 --> 00:10:12,644
Ms. Marcus flaunted her sexuality,
215
00:10:12,646 --> 00:10:15,013
driving other officers to distraction.
216
00:10:15,015 --> 00:10:17,515
Exactly how did she do that?
217
00:10:17,517 --> 00:10:19,501
She sent suggestive photos
218
00:10:19,503 --> 00:10:23,221
of herself around on department
E-mail, for starters.
219
00:10:23,223 --> 00:10:26,307
Roy: To that end...
220
00:10:26,309 --> 00:10:29,277
I'd like to present
defense exhibit number one,
221
00:10:29,279 --> 00:10:30,645
Your Honor.
222
00:10:38,370 --> 00:10:39,988
Roy: Hmm.
223
00:10:41,207 --> 00:10:42,824
Yeah.
224
00:10:42,826 --> 00:10:45,076
Jamie: It's true.
225
00:10:45,078 --> 00:10:47,495
My client did send that photo
226
00:10:47,497 --> 00:10:50,665
to one particular officer, Terry McCandless.
227
00:10:50,667 --> 00:10:52,500
But isn't it also true that her e-mail
228
00:10:52,502 --> 00:10:54,385
was forwarded to other officers, as well?
229
00:10:54,387 --> 00:10:55,703
Yes.
230
00:10:55,705 --> 00:10:56,971
Jamie: So, by passing around
231
00:10:56,973 --> 00:10:59,507
this private photo without her consent,
232
00:10:59,509 --> 00:11:02,176
wasn't your department,
in effect, defaming my client,
233
00:11:02,178 --> 00:11:05,179
by treating her like a sexual object
234
00:11:05,181 --> 00:11:07,565
and diminishing her as a professional?
235
00:11:07,567 --> 00:11:10,869
I'm sure she was aware of
the risks when she sent it.
236
00:11:13,355 --> 00:11:15,356
But isn't it difficult enough
237
00:11:15,358 --> 00:11:16,407
for a woman to feel
238
00:11:16,409 --> 00:11:19,527
confident in her position as it is
239
00:11:19,529 --> 00:11:22,914
in a department that is made up of 76% men?
240
00:11:22,916 --> 00:11:24,365
Uh, objection.
241
00:11:24,367 --> 00:11:25,867
It calls for a conclusion.
242
00:11:25,869 --> 00:11:27,402
Moss: Sustained.
243
00:11:27,404 --> 00:11:29,370
Get to your point, Ms. Sawyer.
244
00:11:31,540 --> 00:11:35,260
Well, with a gender gap that pronounced,
245
00:11:35,262 --> 00:11:37,011
could this be the reason that my client
246
00:11:37,013 --> 00:11:39,097
was sexually propositioned so frequently
247
00:11:39,099 --> 00:11:43,217
that she was compelled to
file a statement of complaint?
248
00:11:46,055 --> 00:11:48,439
I'm not aware of any statement of complaint.
249
00:11:48,441 --> 00:11:50,058
You're not?
250
00:11:51,310 --> 00:11:54,062
So did she or did she not
251
00:11:54,064 --> 00:11:56,397
file a complaint?
252
00:11:56,399 --> 00:11:59,751
To my knowledge, she did not.
253
00:12:01,987 --> 00:12:03,488
Thank you, Officer Knox.
254
00:12:03,490 --> 00:12:05,323
No further questions.
255
00:12:07,376 --> 00:12:11,079
I'd like to call as my
next witness Betsy Lewis.
256
00:12:11,081 --> 00:12:13,164
Mrs. Lewis, in what capacity do you work
257
00:12:13,166 --> 00:12:15,500
at the Charleston police department?
258
00:12:15,502 --> 00:12:19,053
I'm the secretary to the
deputy chief of police.
259
00:12:19,055 --> 00:12:20,138
Have been
260
00:12:20,140 --> 00:12:21,422
for 27 years.
261
00:12:21,424 --> 00:12:23,308
So you work for Holland Knox?
262
00:12:23,310 --> 00:12:24,959
Yes.
263
00:12:24,961 --> 00:12:27,729
I used to work for his
predecessor Wes Tarkington.
264
00:12:27,731 --> 00:12:29,147
Jamie: And when you worked
265
00:12:29,149 --> 00:12:31,232
for deputy chief Tarkington,
did you ever see a copy
266
00:12:31,234 --> 00:12:33,901
of a statement of complaint submitted
267
00:12:33,903 --> 00:12:36,154
by my client Lee Anne Marcus?
268
00:12:42,177 --> 00:12:43,911
Yes, I did.
269
00:12:43,913 --> 00:12:46,030
Jamie: Well, that's strange.
270
00:12:46,032 --> 00:12:48,082
Officer Knox said both in his deposition
271
00:12:48,084 --> 00:12:50,752
and right here under oath
272
00:12:50,754 --> 00:12:53,421
that no SOC ever existed.
273
00:12:53,423 --> 00:12:56,040
But is that true?
274
00:12:56,042 --> 00:12:59,677
No, it's not true.
275
00:12:59,679 --> 00:13:02,347
I told him when it'd been filed.
276
00:13:02,349 --> 00:13:04,515
And that it may have been destroyed.
277
00:13:04,517 --> 00:13:06,801
That's all he wanted to hear.
278
00:13:10,272 --> 00:13:12,023
Plaintiff's exhibit two.
279
00:13:12,025 --> 00:13:15,276
A copy of the actual statement of complaint
280
00:13:15,278 --> 00:13:17,028
filed by my client.
281
00:13:19,615 --> 00:13:22,700
I guess it wasn't destroyed after all.
282
00:13:24,370 --> 00:13:27,071
All that time, you swore to me
283
00:13:27,073 --> 00:13:28,823
that you weren't lying.
284
00:13:28,825 --> 00:13:30,041
I told you, Roy!
285
00:13:30,043 --> 00:13:31,175
I wasn't lying!
286
00:13:31,177 --> 00:13:32,994
I never saw that complaint.
287
00:13:32,996 --> 00:13:34,495
Uh, maybe you didn't lie,
288
00:13:34,497 --> 00:13:37,165
but you didn't exactly
tell the whole truth, either.
289
00:13:37,167 --> 00:13:39,217
And on the stand, Holly,
290
00:13:39,219 --> 00:13:41,335
there is no distinction.
291
00:13:41,337 --> 00:13:44,138
How the hell did Jamie get a copy?
292
00:13:44,140 --> 00:13:46,257
Because she is a damn good lawyer!
293
00:13:46,259 --> 00:13:47,258
That's how.
294
00:13:47,260 --> 00:13:49,143
Her entire theme
295
00:13:49,145 --> 00:13:51,229
is that Lee Anne is some
296
00:13:51,231 --> 00:13:53,264
wronged, powerless female going up
297
00:13:53,266 --> 00:13:55,900
against a corrupt male-dominated system.
298
00:13:55,902 --> 00:13:57,402
And you played right into it.
299
00:13:57,404 --> 00:13:59,737
You just discredited
300
00:13:59,739 --> 00:14:01,906
your entire testimony.
301
00:14:06,495 --> 00:14:11,332
If you would've given me full disclosure,
302
00:14:11,334 --> 00:14:15,086
as your lawyer and as your best friend,
303
00:14:15,088 --> 00:14:17,789
I would've gone to the ends of the earth
304
00:14:17,791 --> 00:14:19,841
to get out ahead of it.
305
00:14:19,843 --> 00:14:22,844
But no, you left me out there all alone.
306
00:14:25,297 --> 00:14:27,515
And because of that...
307
00:14:29,384 --> 00:14:31,552
I couldn't protect you.
308
00:14:37,309 --> 00:14:39,060
What the hell were you thinking?!
309
00:14:39,062 --> 00:14:40,445
Of all the idiotic ways
310
00:14:40,447 --> 00:14:42,864
to just flush your political
career down the toilet.
311
00:14:42,866 --> 00:14:44,215
You're lucky they're not throwing you
312
00:14:44,217 --> 00:14:46,617
in jail for perjury.
313
00:14:46,619 --> 00:14:50,404
All I tried to do was help you
navigate the waters, Holland.
314
00:14:50,406 --> 00:14:53,407
I filled your coffers with donations.
315
00:14:53,409 --> 00:14:55,626
Introduced you to all the right players.
316
00:14:55,628 --> 00:14:57,745
You shot a hole in your own boat.
317
00:14:57,747 --> 00:14:59,163
Peel: We can't spin this.
318
00:14:59,165 --> 00:15:01,799
Johnson: We thought you were
the future of the party.
319
00:15:01,801 --> 00:15:03,918
I guess that was our mistake.
320
00:15:03,920 --> 00:15:05,620
Well?
321
00:15:12,177 --> 00:15:15,429
Do what you need to do.
322
00:15:19,101 --> 00:15:21,519
All our work up in smoke!
323
00:15:21,521 --> 00:15:23,821
Only two weeks to the election,
324
00:15:23,823 --> 00:15:26,858
and Knox just hands it to Joyce Reed.
325
00:15:29,695 --> 00:15:32,997
We could put forth a replacement candidate.
326
00:15:32,999 --> 00:15:35,283
Do as much damage to
her campaign as possible.
327
00:15:35,285 --> 00:15:37,952
At least we wouldn't be
going down without a fight.
328
00:15:37,954 --> 00:15:40,037
You.
329
00:15:41,423 --> 00:15:42,957
Me? What?
330
00:15:44,042 --> 00:15:45,760
You should be the replacement candidate.
331
00:15:45,762 --> 00:15:47,261
You just said it yourself.
332
00:15:47,263 --> 00:15:49,013
You've brought in most of
the campaign contributions.
333
00:15:49,015 --> 00:15:51,132
You know everyone worth
knowing in Charleston.
334
00:15:51,134 --> 00:15:53,134
- I don't see why that...
- And if anybody's gonna
335
00:15:53,136 --> 00:15:55,686
go down swinging, it's you, Dec.
336
00:15:59,808 --> 00:16:02,476
(Laughs) Well, you're certainly giving me
337
00:16:02,478 --> 00:16:05,530
something to think about, gentlemen.
338
00:16:05,532 --> 00:16:06,948
I-I don't want to take
339
00:16:06,950 --> 00:16:09,901
any focus away from my firm.
340
00:16:09,903 --> 00:16:11,118
And, of course, I need
341
00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:15,156
to discuss it with Barbara.
342
00:16:15,158 --> 00:16:18,543
But I do believe you've made
me an offer I can't refuse.
343
00:16:18,545 --> 00:16:20,545
(Laughs)
344
00:16:21,413 --> 00:16:23,631
Johnson: Ho! (Laughs)
345
00:16:48,342 --> 00:16:49,643
Ms. Graham?
346
00:16:49,645 --> 00:16:52,228
You're late.
347
00:16:52,230 --> 00:16:53,813
I was beginning to worry.
348
00:16:53,815 --> 00:16:55,098
Sorry, chief.
349
00:16:55,100 --> 00:16:57,934
How is everything progressing?
350
00:16:57,936 --> 00:16:59,302
Not well.
351
00:16:59,304 --> 00:17:01,721
The deputy chief didn't do you any favors.
352
00:17:01,723 --> 00:17:03,556
That was a blow to your department's case.
353
00:17:03,558 --> 00:17:05,458
Which I anticipated.
354
00:17:05,460 --> 00:17:08,278
That's why I helped get you
into that jury box, my dear.
355
00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:10,830
I've done everything you said.
356
00:17:10,832 --> 00:17:13,199
I've made friends with other jurors.
357
00:17:13,201 --> 00:17:15,085
Tried to take on a leadership role.
358
00:17:15,087 --> 00:17:17,137
Good.
359
00:17:17,139 --> 00:17:18,955
You play this right,
360
00:17:18,957 --> 00:17:20,373
you'll become the foreperson.
361
00:17:20,375 --> 00:17:21,925
And then you'll have even more power
362
00:17:21,927 --> 00:17:24,010
to sway their opinions.
363
00:17:24,012 --> 00:17:25,295
All we need
364
00:17:25,297 --> 00:17:27,530
is the majority.
365
00:17:29,016 --> 00:17:31,634
I don't like this.
366
00:17:33,287 --> 00:17:36,189
Lee Anne Marcus cannot win this case.
367
00:17:36,191 --> 00:17:39,092
You get me that outcome,
368
00:17:39,094 --> 00:17:42,028
and I'll fulfill my end of the bargain.
369
00:17:42,030 --> 00:17:44,731
You have my promise.
370
00:17:54,325 --> 00:17:55,825
(Chickens clucking)
371
00:17:55,827 --> 00:17:57,127
(Car door shuts)
372
00:17:57,129 --> 00:17:58,328
Hey, there he is!
373
00:17:58,330 --> 00:18:00,130
Really sucks about your badge, man.
374
00:18:00,132 --> 00:18:01,414
Work's not the same without you.
375
00:18:01,416 --> 00:18:04,884
Ah, they can't hold me down for long.
376
00:18:04,886 --> 00:18:06,169
So, what's up?
377
00:18:06,171 --> 00:18:09,005
Why'd you want to see me?
378
00:18:09,007 --> 00:18:12,926
Well, Toby, I got a proposition for you.
379
00:18:12,928 --> 00:18:15,979
For me?
380
00:18:15,981 --> 00:18:17,731
Well, here's the thing.
381
00:18:17,733 --> 00:18:19,933
If you, uh, take this proposition,
382
00:18:19,935 --> 00:18:21,601
it might kind of make you
383
00:18:21,603 --> 00:18:24,270
persona non grata down at the station.
384
00:18:24,272 --> 00:18:26,022
Why would I be interested in that?
385
00:18:26,024 --> 00:18:27,991
I'll tell you why.
386
00:18:27,993 --> 00:18:30,110
'Cause I know you.
387
00:18:30,112 --> 00:18:32,579
You started on the force with high hopes,
388
00:18:32,581 --> 00:18:36,282
but your bad back didn't
put you on the front lines.
389
00:18:36,284 --> 00:18:38,034
And you weren't savvy enough to snuggle up
390
00:18:38,036 --> 00:18:39,786
to the powers that be.
391
00:18:39,788 --> 00:18:42,338
So you clock in and clock
out knowing you're never
392
00:18:42,340 --> 00:18:45,125
gonna make a big bust,
never gonna rise the ranks.
393
00:18:45,127 --> 00:18:47,460
And by the time you punch
that final time card
394
00:18:47,462 --> 00:18:50,130
and eat your dried up
piece of good-bye cake,
395
00:18:50,132 --> 00:18:52,766
you'll be lucky if you
even got a pension worth
396
00:18:52,768 --> 00:18:54,684
all the stomach ulcers eating you up.
397
00:18:54,686 --> 00:18:56,519
(Laughs)
398
00:18:56,521 --> 00:18:58,638
But I got a way out for you, my friend.
399
00:18:58,640 --> 00:19:00,440
I can get you some money.
400
00:19:00,442 --> 00:19:03,276
Some sweet tax-free money and lots of it.
401
00:19:05,613 --> 00:19:08,565
Are you still listening?
402
00:19:12,319 --> 00:19:13,703
Hey.
403
00:19:15,206 --> 00:19:17,740
I heard about what happened in court.
404
00:19:19,410 --> 00:19:20,460
I'm sorry.
405
00:19:20,462 --> 00:19:22,545
Yeah.
406
00:19:22,547 --> 00:19:25,165
My days here as deputy chief
are most likely numbered,
407
00:19:25,167 --> 00:19:28,668
and I got some open cases
I want off my queue.
408
00:19:28,670 --> 00:19:30,303
Arliss Fulton?
409
00:19:30,305 --> 00:19:31,754
That's Lee Anne's husband.
410
00:19:31,756 --> 00:19:34,674
What happened to him?
411
00:19:34,676 --> 00:19:37,477
Yeah, that's the last one
you should be worried about.
412
00:19:38,729 --> 00:19:40,180
This one first.
413
00:19:40,182 --> 00:19:43,066
Request comes straight from the chief.
414
00:19:58,749 --> 00:20:00,834
CSU never processed this vehicle?
415
00:20:00,836 --> 00:20:02,085
Nope.
416
00:20:02,087 --> 00:20:04,087
We never got the work order from homicide.
417
00:20:04,089 --> 00:20:07,874
Oh, I bet that's because the
wife of the missing person
418
00:20:07,876 --> 00:20:09,459
is Lee Anne Marcus.
419
00:20:10,327 --> 00:20:12,095
We got blood on the steering wheel
420
00:20:12,097 --> 00:20:14,430
and the door handle here.
421
00:20:21,722 --> 00:20:24,274
Look at this print.
422
00:20:30,397 --> 00:20:32,115
Arliss Fulton's a paraplegic.
423
00:20:32,117 --> 00:20:34,117
There's no way he could've
reached this area.
424
00:20:34,119 --> 00:20:36,870
Someone else was here.
425
00:20:45,412 --> 00:20:47,580
(Door opens)
426
00:20:50,301 --> 00:20:51,668
May I help you?
427
00:20:51,670 --> 00:20:53,887
You're repping Lee Anne Marcus, right?
428
00:20:54,838 --> 00:20:56,890
I'm Detective Fowler.
429
00:20:56,892 --> 00:20:58,758
Toby Fowler.
430
00:20:58,760 --> 00:21:01,177
What can we do for you, sir?
431
00:21:01,179 --> 00:21:03,680
I knew her... Lee Anne.
432
00:21:05,566 --> 00:21:08,768
Look, I've... seen things,
433
00:21:08,770 --> 00:21:10,904
but I didn't want to say.
434
00:21:10,906 --> 00:21:13,022
The thin blue line
435
00:21:13,024 --> 00:21:14,574
can be like a rope that'll strangle you.
436
00:21:14,576 --> 00:21:16,576
So, why are you coming forward now?
437
00:21:16,578 --> 00:21:17,660
This has all gone
438
00:21:17,662 --> 00:21:19,696
way too far.
439
00:21:19,698 --> 00:21:22,615
What those guys did to her,
440
00:21:22,617 --> 00:21:24,751
I should've come forward sooner.
441
00:21:26,237 --> 00:21:27,453
I want to know everything.
442
00:21:27,455 --> 00:21:29,872
Would you be willing to
testify on her behalf?
443
00:21:29,874 --> 00:21:32,091
Yes, I will.
444
00:21:35,296 --> 00:21:37,297
Detective Fowler, how long have you been
445
00:21:37,299 --> 00:21:39,716
a police officer with the
Charleston police department?
446
00:21:39,718 --> 00:21:41,634
Going on 20 years.
447
00:21:41,636 --> 00:21:43,853
And did you ever socialize
with my client Lee Anne Marcus
448
00:21:43,855 --> 00:21:44,971
outside of work?
449
00:21:44,973 --> 00:21:46,306
Yes, often.
450
00:21:46,308 --> 00:21:48,191
CPD is a tight-knit group.
451
00:21:48,193 --> 00:21:51,144
Did you ever witness any
male police officers make
452
00:21:51,146 --> 00:21:52,979
sexual advances toward her?
453
00:21:52,981 --> 00:21:54,113
Yes.
454
00:21:54,115 --> 00:21:56,149
Can you point to a specific incident?
455
00:21:56,151 --> 00:21:57,867
One night, we were out celebrating
456
00:21:57,869 --> 00:22:00,320
an officer's birthday... Terry McCandless.
457
00:22:00,322 --> 00:22:03,122
Some of us went out for drinks.
458
00:22:03,124 --> 00:22:05,325
It was the same night that sex tape was made
459
00:22:05,327 --> 00:22:06,709
that was all over the news.
460
00:22:06,711 --> 00:22:09,162
And what did you see that night?
461
00:22:09,164 --> 00:22:10,246
Terry and his buddies,
462
00:22:10,248 --> 00:22:11,998
they were all three sheets to the wind.
463
00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:14,901
I left before things got
out of control, but...
464
00:22:14,903 --> 00:22:17,587
But what?
465
00:22:18,589 --> 00:22:21,174
One of the guys told me they were gonna
466
00:22:21,176 --> 00:22:24,160
"get a taste of Lee Anne"
before the night was done.
467
00:22:24,162 --> 00:22:27,313
And then he slipped something into her beer.
468
00:22:27,315 --> 00:22:30,516
Would you identify that
person for the court?
469
00:22:32,102 --> 00:22:34,487
You say it was Frank Jablonski.
470
00:22:34,489 --> 00:22:36,739
Now, are you aware, detective,
471
00:22:36,741 --> 00:22:39,409
that Mr. Jablonski was
killed a few weeks ago
472
00:22:39,411 --> 00:22:41,110
in an officer-involved shooting?
473
00:22:41,112 --> 00:22:42,662
I am.
474
00:22:42,664 --> 00:22:47,533
Unfortunately, Mr.
Jablonski is not available
475
00:22:47,535 --> 00:22:50,420
to confirm or deny your story.
476
00:22:52,006 --> 00:22:54,173
Jamie: And to your point, Detective Fowler,
477
00:22:54,175 --> 00:22:58,144
I'd like to submit plaintiff's
exhibits five and six.
478
00:22:58,146 --> 00:23:01,881
On the monitor, you will see
results of a drug test performed
479
00:23:01,883 --> 00:23:04,634
by two different independent labs,
480
00:23:04,636 --> 00:23:07,720
which confirm that my
client was dosed with GHB,
481
00:23:07,722 --> 00:23:10,973
commonly referred to as a "date rape drug."
482
00:23:10,975 --> 00:23:13,726
As for plaintiff's exhibit seven,
483
00:23:13,728 --> 00:23:17,814
this drug test, performed
to the same criteria,
484
00:23:17,816 --> 00:23:19,482
came back negative. And why?
485
00:23:19,484 --> 00:23:23,069
Because it was performed by
a man named Patrick Brandeis,
486
00:23:23,071 --> 00:23:26,789
who happens to be the
brother of Miles Brandeis,
487
00:23:26,791 --> 00:23:28,624
another one of Terry McCandless's buddies
488
00:23:28,626 --> 00:23:31,744
at the Charleston PD.
489
00:23:31,746 --> 00:23:33,863
Once again confirming
490
00:23:33,865 --> 00:23:36,416
that the police not only knew
that my client was drugged,
491
00:23:36,418 --> 00:23:39,001
but they were united in
an effort to cover it up.
492
00:23:39,003 --> 00:23:41,421
Objection! Counsel is testifying.
493
00:23:41,423 --> 00:23:42,588
She certainly is.
494
00:23:42,590 --> 00:23:45,341
Would you like to be sworn in, Ms. Sawyer?
495
00:23:45,343 --> 00:23:47,427
My apologies. Thank you, detective.
496
00:23:47,429 --> 00:23:48,761
No further questions.
497
00:23:58,739 --> 00:24:00,490
Hey.
498
00:24:00,492 --> 00:24:02,075
You on a lunch break?
499
00:24:02,077 --> 00:24:03,526
Toby Fowler.
500
00:24:03,528 --> 00:24:07,597
You got him to testify for me, didn't you?
501
00:24:07,599 --> 00:24:10,450
Terry McCandless, if you
did something illegal
502
00:24:10,452 --> 00:24:11,617
and they find out...
503
00:24:11,619 --> 00:24:14,120
Calm down. Toby decided
504
00:24:14,122 --> 00:24:17,206
to come forward. That's his prerogative.
505
00:24:17,208 --> 00:24:18,875
You were drugged, right?
506
00:24:18,877 --> 00:24:20,877
The test results proved it.
507
00:24:20,879 --> 00:24:23,296
You just needed someone to back your story.
508
00:24:23,298 --> 00:24:27,850
I just wanted to help you.
509
00:24:29,770 --> 00:24:31,938
You got a funny way of showing it.
510
00:24:31,940 --> 00:24:35,725
See that light is traveling...
511
00:24:40,147 --> 00:24:41,814
- Wait.
- I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
512
00:24:41,816 --> 00:24:43,282
I know. Look, I didn't mean...
513
00:24:43,284 --> 00:24:45,451
- It's okay.
- With Arliss and all that...
514
00:24:45,453 --> 00:24:47,537
(Sighs)
515
00:24:49,289 --> 00:24:52,041
I've been through all the
stages of grief, Terry.
516
00:24:52,043 --> 00:24:54,327
All of them.
517
00:24:54,329 --> 00:24:57,497
Something hit me when
I woke up this morning.
518
00:24:57,499 --> 00:25:02,835
And that feeling that I've held so close...
519
00:25:02,837 --> 00:25:05,338
That feeling that he's out there
520
00:25:05,340 --> 00:25:07,223
somewhere...
521
00:25:07,225 --> 00:25:09,509
It's gone.
522
00:25:10,344 --> 00:25:11,928
Arliss is dead.
523
00:25:11,930 --> 00:25:14,063
I know that now.
524
00:25:14,065 --> 00:25:15,348
But...
525
00:25:15,350 --> 00:25:17,517
What?
526
00:25:21,905 --> 00:25:24,240
But I need to keep on living.
527
00:25:26,610 --> 00:25:31,197
No complications
528
00:25:31,199 --> 00:25:34,534
Just inspiration.
529
00:25:42,042 --> 00:25:44,293
Bailiff: Do you swear to tell the truth,
530
00:25:44,295 --> 00:25:47,096
the whole truth and nothing
but the truth, so help you God?
531
00:25:47,098 --> 00:25:48,431
I will.
532
00:25:56,139 --> 00:25:59,058
How long have you lived
in Charleston, Lee Anne?
533
00:25:59,060 --> 00:26:01,727
I'm a Chucktown girl, born and raised.
534
00:26:01,729 --> 00:26:04,864
You come from a broken home, correct?
535
00:26:04,866 --> 00:26:07,650
My daddy ran off when I was seven.
536
00:26:07,652 --> 00:26:11,954
We didn't have much, but
my mama, she was strong.
537
00:26:11,956 --> 00:26:14,740
Taught me how to be
self-reliant, to dream big.
538
00:26:14,742 --> 00:26:16,242
And did you?
539
00:26:16,244 --> 00:26:19,579
To me, being a police
officer was dreaming big.
540
00:26:19,581 --> 00:26:22,081
So, when I became one,
541
00:26:22,083 --> 00:26:24,917
it was one of the best moments of my life.
542
00:26:24,919 --> 00:26:27,386
Roy: You held other jobs before
543
00:26:27,388 --> 00:26:29,422
becoming a police officer, didn't you?
544
00:26:29,424 --> 00:26:30,723
Yes.
545
00:26:30,725 --> 00:26:32,508
Bartender, bank teller,
546
00:26:32,510 --> 00:26:34,760
fast food cashier, to name a few.
547
00:26:34,762 --> 00:26:38,097
Were you fired from any of those jobs?
548
00:26:38,099 --> 00:26:39,982
Objection. Relevance.
549
00:26:39,984 --> 00:26:41,100
Your Honor, I'm just establishing
550
00:26:41,102 --> 00:26:43,486
a pattern of work ethic.
551
00:26:43,488 --> 00:26:44,804
Overruled.
552
00:26:44,806 --> 00:26:46,939
Roy: I've entered defense exhibits
553
00:26:46,941 --> 00:26:49,408
two through five, Your Honor.
554
00:26:49,410 --> 00:26:52,495
All paperwork showing that
the plaintiff was indeed fired
555
00:26:52,497 --> 00:26:54,413
from four previous positions.
556
00:26:54,415 --> 00:26:58,618
Were you also "wrongfully terminated"
557
00:26:58,620 --> 00:27:01,003
from all of those places as well?
558
00:27:02,639 --> 00:27:04,874
We've already established
your performance record
559
00:27:04,876 --> 00:27:06,459
at the Charleston PD, Lee Anne.
560
00:27:06,461 --> 00:27:08,544
Were you ever given any
indication that your work
561
00:27:08,546 --> 00:27:10,596
there was anything but exemplary?
562
00:27:10,598 --> 00:27:14,467
No. One afternoon, I was called
into deputy chief Knox's office,
563
00:27:14,469 --> 00:27:17,637
and without warning, he fired me.
564
00:27:17,639 --> 00:27:21,023
Roy: You admitted in your deposition
565
00:27:21,025 --> 00:27:23,059
that you were having an extramarital affair
566
00:27:23,061 --> 00:27:26,445
with a fellow officer,
Terry McCandless. Correct?
567
00:27:26,447 --> 00:27:27,863
Yes.
568
00:27:27,865 --> 00:27:29,815
Not only while your husband was fighting
569
00:27:29,817 --> 00:27:31,200
for his country in Iraq,
570
00:27:31,202 --> 00:27:35,655
but even after he returned
home as a paraplegic.
571
00:27:35,657 --> 00:27:37,323
(Murmuring)
572
00:27:44,164 --> 00:27:46,499
If this case is about me being perfect,
573
00:27:46,501 --> 00:27:50,252
well, y'all can rule against me right now.
574
00:27:50,254 --> 00:27:52,088
Jamie: Why did you have an affair
575
00:27:52,090 --> 00:27:53,806
with Officer McCandless?
576
00:27:53,808 --> 00:27:57,343
When my husband went off to fight,
577
00:27:57,345 --> 00:28:02,848
I was alone for the first time
in my life... and so scared.
578
00:28:04,234 --> 00:28:07,069
Being with Terry, I was accepted,
579
00:28:07,071 --> 00:28:10,189
taken in by the other officers.
580
00:28:10,191 --> 00:28:13,109
It was like I had a family again.
581
00:28:13,111 --> 00:28:15,528
And did that change?
582
00:28:15,530 --> 00:28:19,365
After that night, at... at Terry's party,
583
00:28:19,367 --> 00:28:22,501
when I was drugged and...
584
00:28:22,503 --> 00:28:26,589
passed around like a toy...
585
00:28:26,591 --> 00:28:29,208
everything changed.
586
00:28:29,210 --> 00:28:31,594
They all turned against me.
587
00:28:31,596 --> 00:28:33,713
And I lost my job.
588
00:28:35,599 --> 00:28:37,216
I might have been crazy
589
00:28:37,218 --> 00:28:39,769
taking on the entire police department.
590
00:28:39,771 --> 00:28:42,104
This case has taken
591
00:28:42,106 --> 00:28:46,275
a huge toll in ways I
never could've imagined.
592
00:28:47,394 --> 00:28:49,195
My house was firebombed,
593
00:28:49,197 --> 00:28:52,281
and that tape was leaked to the press.
594
00:28:52,283 --> 00:28:55,785
And your husband drove off the
road and disappeared, right?
595
00:28:57,704 --> 00:28:59,238
Yes.
596
00:28:59,240 --> 00:29:02,992
Perhaps he didn't disappear.
597
00:29:02,994 --> 00:29:06,779
Perhaps, Ms. Marcus, he left you
598
00:29:06,781 --> 00:29:10,549
after discovering you
have continued your affair
599
00:29:10,551 --> 00:29:12,251
with Officer McCandless.
600
00:29:12,253 --> 00:29:14,086
Objection. Argumentative.
601
00:29:14,088 --> 00:29:15,421
Sustained.
602
00:29:15,423 --> 00:29:17,640
You best have a point, Mr. City Attorney.
603
00:29:17,642 --> 00:29:19,592
I do, Your Honor.
604
00:29:19,594 --> 00:29:21,510
In Ms. Marcus's deposition,
605
00:29:21,512 --> 00:29:24,730
she stated that she had not had
606
00:29:24,732 --> 00:29:27,233
any sexual relations with Officer McCandless
607
00:29:27,235 --> 00:29:30,152
since before the lawsuit was filed.
608
00:29:32,572 --> 00:29:35,574
If it pleases the court,
609
00:29:35,576 --> 00:29:39,779
I'd like to present
defense exhibit number six.
610
00:29:43,950 --> 00:29:45,785
(Woman gasps, gallery murmurs)
611
00:29:45,787 --> 00:29:48,704
Object, Your Honor. Immaterial.
612
00:29:48,706 --> 00:29:50,289
Overruled.
613
00:29:53,960 --> 00:29:55,845
(Murmuring)
614
00:29:57,631 --> 00:29:59,465
This was taken the night
of the mayor's ball.
615
00:30:01,468 --> 00:30:03,302
(Murmuring) Woman: She was lying.
616
00:30:03,304 --> 00:30:06,939
I don't know if I can believe her.
617
00:30:08,225 --> 00:30:09,942
(Murmuring continues)
618
00:30:09,944 --> 00:30:11,143
She's lying.
619
00:30:12,946 --> 00:30:14,897
Shame, shame.
620
00:30:33,348 --> 00:30:35,749
Roy really did a number on us today,
621
00:30:35,751 --> 00:30:37,267
that's for sure.
622
00:30:37,269 --> 00:30:40,537
I need to do damage control, strike back.
623
00:30:40,539 --> 00:30:41,972
I think I found something.
624
00:30:41,974 --> 00:30:45,592
I was looking over copies
of Roy's witness lists.
625
00:30:45,594 --> 00:30:47,711
Here's one from two months ago and one
626
00:30:47,713 --> 00:30:48,795
from just last week.
627
00:30:48,797 --> 00:30:49,796
And there's one change
628
00:30:49,798 --> 00:30:51,348
that's particularly interesting.
629
00:30:51,350 --> 00:30:53,100
Ronnie Porter.
630
00:30:53,102 --> 00:30:54,885
Roy was gonna call him as a witness,
631
00:30:54,887 --> 00:30:56,803
but then struck him from the list.
632
00:30:56,805 --> 00:30:58,388
Who's Ronnie Porter?
633
00:30:58,390 --> 00:30:59,890
A former Charleston PD cop.
634
00:30:59,892 --> 00:31:02,526
Left the force before the suit was filed.
635
00:31:02,528 --> 00:31:04,127
How's that helpful?
636
00:31:04,129 --> 00:31:06,029
If Roy changed his mind about using him,
637
00:31:06,031 --> 00:31:07,397
it's gotta be for a good reason.
638
00:31:07,399 --> 00:31:09,466
A reason that could help our case.
639
00:31:09,468 --> 00:31:10,401
I'm gonna ask Lee Anne if she knows him.
640
00:31:10,401 --> 00:31:12,017
Meanwhile, find Ronnie, okay?
641
00:31:12,019 --> 00:31:14,853
I'd love to have a little chat with him.
642
00:31:14,855 --> 00:31:17,022
Yeah, I knew Ronnie.
643
00:31:17,024 --> 00:31:19,358
He was my training officer.
644
00:31:19,360 --> 00:31:22,661
Oh, that must be why Roy
called him to the stand.
645
00:31:22,663 --> 00:31:25,197
To testify about your job performance.
646
00:31:26,032 --> 00:31:27,282
Probably dropped him
647
00:31:27,284 --> 00:31:30,736
when he only had good
things to say about you.
648
00:31:30,738 --> 00:31:33,172
I should call Ronnie to the stand.
649
00:31:33,174 --> 00:31:34,706
Make Roy tap-dance a little.
650
00:31:34,708 --> 00:31:38,260
You wouldn't want to do that, believe me.
651
00:31:38,262 --> 00:31:39,545
Why not?
652
00:31:40,547 --> 00:31:43,715
Ronnie got put on an
extended leave of absence.
653
00:31:45,218 --> 00:31:47,052
He had some kind of breakdown.
654
00:31:47,054 --> 00:31:48,971
Over what?
655
00:31:48,973 --> 00:31:52,391
Well, he shot an innocent
bystander at a scene,
656
00:31:52,393 --> 00:31:53,609
and the guy almost died.
657
00:31:53,611 --> 00:31:57,563
I think the guilt just tore Ronnie up.
658
00:31:57,565 --> 00:32:00,399
They found him on the
railing of the Ravenel Bridge
659
00:32:00,401 --> 00:32:01,617
about ready to jump.
660
00:32:01,619 --> 00:32:05,070
I'd love for him to testify for me, but...
661
00:32:05,072 --> 00:32:06,905
Unfortunately, he wouldn't exactly
662
00:32:06,907 --> 00:32:09,458
be the most reliable witness.
663
00:32:31,064 --> 00:32:33,182
What do you need, Roy?
664
00:32:34,684 --> 00:32:35,984
Looking for Knox.
665
00:32:35,986 --> 00:32:38,187
Not answering his phone.
666
00:32:38,189 --> 00:32:40,522
He hasn't been around all day.
667
00:32:42,242 --> 00:32:45,277
Is it true he dropped
out of the mayor's race?
668
00:32:45,279 --> 00:32:47,246
Yeah. I just heard
669
00:32:47,248 --> 00:32:51,099
and wanted to see how he was holding up.
670
00:32:52,469 --> 00:32:53,502
What's that?
671
00:32:53,504 --> 00:32:55,404
Cold case. Three years ago,
672
00:32:55,406 --> 00:32:59,625
an intruder broke into a home,
attacked a married couple.
673
00:32:59,627 --> 00:33:01,293
Killed the husband,
674
00:33:01,295 --> 00:33:03,462
seriously injured the wife.
675
00:33:03,464 --> 00:33:05,681
Went unsolved.
676
00:33:05,683 --> 00:33:07,299
Why is it here?
677
00:33:07,301 --> 00:33:10,602
I guess Chief Ellsworth wanted it reopened
678
00:33:10,604 --> 00:33:12,804
for some reason.
679
00:33:13,640 --> 00:33:16,191
Why are you so interested?
680
00:33:19,529 --> 00:33:21,146
Because I know that woman.
681
00:33:22,732 --> 00:33:24,116
(Knocking)
682
00:33:24,118 --> 00:33:26,068
There he is.
683
00:33:26,070 --> 00:33:27,870
Chief Ellsworth.
684
00:33:27,872 --> 00:33:29,154
Thank you for coming in.
685
00:33:29,156 --> 00:33:31,373
My pleasure.
686
00:33:33,409 --> 00:33:35,327
I heard you pulled off
687
00:33:35,329 --> 00:33:37,079
some pretty fancy footwork today, Roy.
688
00:33:37,081 --> 00:33:40,883
We got a real shot at
winning this thing now.
689
00:33:40,885 --> 00:33:44,469
Exactly how far are you
willing to go to ensure that?
690
00:33:46,639 --> 00:33:48,507
What are you talking about, son?
691
00:33:48,509 --> 00:33:50,509
Please tell me that it is a coincidence
692
00:33:50,511 --> 00:33:53,412
that Nicolette Graham just
happens to be on my jury.
693
00:33:53,414 --> 00:33:55,681
You see,
694
00:33:55,683 --> 00:33:57,566
her husband was killed three years ago.
695
00:33:57,568 --> 00:34:00,469
Killer was never found
and the case went cold.
696
00:34:00,471 --> 00:34:04,723
And suddenly, out of the blue,
the case is reopened by you.
697
00:34:06,409 --> 00:34:09,661
You made a deal with Ms. Graham, didn't you?
698
00:34:09,663 --> 00:34:11,997
Don't jump to conclusions here.
699
00:34:11,999 --> 00:34:13,198
You are tampering
700
00:34:13,200 --> 00:34:16,285
with my jury, and I will not stand for it.
701
00:34:18,087 --> 00:34:21,456
Even if Ms. Graham and I devised
702
00:34:21,458 --> 00:34:24,293
a mutually beneficial arrangement...
703
00:34:24,295 --> 00:34:25,811
(Sighs)
704
00:34:25,813 --> 00:34:28,430
Why should you care to
have a friend on your side?
705
00:34:28,432 --> 00:34:30,432
She will tell the court that she is sick
706
00:34:30,434 --> 00:34:32,634
or had a death in the family.
707
00:34:32,636 --> 00:34:35,053
Whatever it takes to recuse herself.
708
00:34:35,055 --> 00:34:36,188
I don't care.
709
00:34:36,190 --> 00:34:39,391
Must I remind you you're working for me?
710
00:34:39,393 --> 00:34:41,276
For my department.
711
00:34:41,278 --> 00:34:43,862
This case, it's a sham.
712
00:34:43,864 --> 00:34:45,063
An embarrassment.
713
00:34:46,399 --> 00:34:48,200
The juror is out.
714
00:34:48,202 --> 00:34:50,485
And unless you want me to tell the judge
715
00:34:50,487 --> 00:34:53,288
and everyone who will listen
that the chief of police
716
00:34:53,290 --> 00:34:55,324
is guilty of collusion,
717
00:34:55,326 --> 00:34:57,075
I want two things from you.
718
00:34:57,077 --> 00:34:59,294
One: You will still look into
719
00:34:59,296 --> 00:35:01,964
the murder of Ms. Graham's husband...
720
00:35:01,966 --> 00:35:03,081
I'm gonna remember this, Rayder.
721
00:35:03,083 --> 00:35:04,416
Believe me when I say that.
722
00:35:04,418 --> 00:35:07,252
And two:
723
00:35:07,254 --> 00:35:08,971
You will stick by Holland Knox
724
00:35:08,973 --> 00:35:11,089
and let him keep his job.
725
00:35:11,091 --> 00:35:13,258
Do we have a deal?
726
00:35:15,478 --> 00:35:18,430
Do we have a deal, chief?
727
00:35:38,664 --> 00:35:40,081
Detective Cruz.
728
00:35:40,083 --> 00:35:42,400
I ran those fingerprints you found
729
00:35:42,402 --> 00:35:43,501
on Arliss Fulton's truck,
730
00:35:43,503 --> 00:35:45,253
and I got a hit in AFIS.
731
00:35:45,255 --> 00:35:47,171
Oh, that's great.
732
00:35:47,173 --> 00:35:50,174
"Jasper Taggett."
733
00:35:50,176 --> 00:35:52,343
Assault, armed robbery... Oh, that's great.
734
00:35:52,345 --> 00:35:54,178
Attempted murder.
735
00:35:54,180 --> 00:35:56,013
He's a three-time loser.
736
00:35:56,015 --> 00:35:57,432
I gotta figure out
737
00:35:57,434 --> 00:35:59,851
what he was doing at the crash.
738
00:36:11,029 --> 00:36:12,363
Jasper Taggett?
739
00:36:13,365 --> 00:36:16,367
Charleston PD.
740
00:36:21,540 --> 00:36:22,623
Mr. Taggett?
741
00:36:22,625 --> 00:36:24,425
Yeah. What do you want?
742
00:36:24,427 --> 00:36:26,794
Open the door, sir.
743
00:36:27,963 --> 00:36:29,714
What if I don't want to?
744
00:36:29,716 --> 00:36:30,965
Hey, man!
745
00:36:32,100 --> 00:36:34,135
You know a man named Arliss Fulton?
746
00:36:34,137 --> 00:36:35,553
No.
747
00:36:35,555 --> 00:36:37,722
I never even heard that name.
748
00:36:47,566 --> 00:36:49,617
Jasper: Hey, don't you need
a warrant or something?
749
00:36:49,619 --> 00:36:50,735
Shut up!
750
00:36:50,737 --> 00:36:51,953
Just shut up.
751
00:36:57,910 --> 00:36:59,076
Two wallets?
752
00:37:19,598 --> 00:37:20,681
Where is he?
753
00:37:20,683 --> 00:37:22,316
Where's Arliss?
754
00:37:22,318 --> 00:37:23,651
What did you do?
755
00:37:29,074 --> 00:37:31,325
- Watch him.
- Got it.
756
00:37:40,369 --> 00:37:42,620
757
00:38:10,198 --> 00:38:11,532
Mr. Porter?
758
00:38:15,787 --> 00:38:17,872
I hope I'm not bothering you.
759
00:38:17,874 --> 00:38:20,908
I've seen you on TV.
760
00:38:20,910 --> 00:38:23,744
You're that lawyer that's
fighting the police department.
761
00:38:25,297 --> 00:38:27,965
From what I hear, you're
a pretty darn good cop.
762
00:38:27,967 --> 00:38:29,383
(Scoffs)
763
00:38:29,385 --> 00:38:31,419
Was, you mean.
764
00:38:33,972 --> 00:38:36,424
Did your job make you...
765
00:38:36,426 --> 00:38:38,175
sick?
766
00:38:38,177 --> 00:38:40,344
That's a nice way to put it.
767
00:38:41,647 --> 00:38:43,064
Yeah.
768
00:38:43,066 --> 00:38:44,732
That and some other things.
769
00:38:44,734 --> 00:38:46,350
I guess you're wondering how
770
00:38:46,352 --> 00:38:48,069
I let her get to me like that, huh?
771
00:38:50,155 --> 00:38:51,806
Let who get to you?
772
00:38:51,808 --> 00:38:54,442
Lee Anne Marcus.
773
00:38:56,695 --> 00:38:59,196
Right, yes.
774
00:38:59,198 --> 00:39:01,365
I was curious.
775
00:39:02,334 --> 00:39:04,502
Do you mind talking about it?
776
00:39:04,504 --> 00:39:06,487
(Chuckles)
777
00:39:06,489 --> 00:39:08,706
Um...
778
00:39:10,292 --> 00:39:12,627
I was top of my class at the academy.
779
00:39:12,629 --> 00:39:14,795
I brought that momentum
in with me to the job.
780
00:39:14,797 --> 00:39:17,632
Pretty solid future.
781
00:39:20,385 --> 00:39:22,386
And then she joined the force.
782
00:39:22,388 --> 00:39:23,854
Lee Anne.
783
00:39:23,856 --> 00:39:25,806
Yeah. She was like
784
00:39:25,808 --> 00:39:28,059
a heat-seeking missile.
785
00:39:29,945 --> 00:39:33,364
Day one, she locked eyes on me, and...
786
00:39:33,366 --> 00:39:34,865
I was gone.
787
00:39:34,867 --> 00:39:36,784
Gone how?
788
00:39:36,786 --> 00:39:40,321
She has this way of
getting inside your blood.
789
00:39:42,407 --> 00:39:47,294
And you're so afraid of losing that high...
790
00:39:47,296 --> 00:39:48,629
You'll do just about anything.
791
00:39:48,631 --> 00:39:52,500
You know, suddenly I-I'm playing
792
00:39:52,502 --> 00:39:54,335
all these messed-up games.
793
00:39:54,337 --> 00:39:55,886
You know...
794
00:39:55,888 --> 00:39:57,838
Sexual stuff.
795
00:39:58,974 --> 00:40:01,676
Ruined my marriage.
796
00:40:01,678 --> 00:40:03,844
I lost my kids.
797
00:40:04,930 --> 00:40:07,098
I couldn't concentrate at work.
798
00:40:10,352 --> 00:40:12,820
But that just made her
bury the claws in deeper.
799
00:40:12,822 --> 00:40:16,657
Pretty soon, she got me, uh...
800
00:40:16,659 --> 00:40:18,909
doing things, um...
801
00:40:18,911 --> 00:40:21,445
Bad things.
802
00:40:21,447 --> 00:40:23,197
Bad things...?
803
00:40:23,199 --> 00:40:26,500
Lifting stuff from the, uh, evidence room.
804
00:40:26,502 --> 00:40:28,119
Like what?
805
00:40:30,038 --> 00:40:32,540
You can tell me, Ronnie.
806
00:40:34,376 --> 00:40:36,210
Was it drugs?
807
00:40:36,212 --> 00:40:38,462
Look, it was nothing hardcore.
808
00:40:39,297 --> 00:40:42,099
Just some E and some roofies.
809
00:40:42,101 --> 00:40:44,518
And finally, I-I said, "hey, that...
810
00:40:44,520 --> 00:40:47,138
That's enough. Okay?"
811
00:40:47,140 --> 00:40:49,023
But she... she just went cold.
812
00:40:49,025 --> 00:40:51,308
You see? And-and five minutes later,
813
00:40:51,310 --> 00:40:52,943
she found some other dupe to manipulate
814
00:40:52,945 --> 00:40:54,612
into doing whatever it is she wanted.
815
00:40:54,614 --> 00:40:57,031
And who was that?
816
00:40:57,033 --> 00:40:58,983
This hothead detective, Terry McCandless.
817
00:40:58,985 --> 00:41:02,119
And all of a sudden, I'm
on the outside looking in.
818
00:41:02,121 --> 00:41:03,537
Everything I had...
819
00:41:03,539 --> 00:41:06,157
was gone.
820
00:41:06,159 --> 00:41:08,075
And it's because of your client,
821
00:41:08,077 --> 00:41:10,544
Lee Anne Marcus.
822
00:41:11,580 --> 00:41:12,880
Lee Anne Marcus!
823
00:41:12,882 --> 00:41:15,249
- No, Ronnie...
- Get off me!
824
00:41:15,251 --> 00:41:16,717
Get off me!
825
00:41:16,719 --> 00:41:18,669
It's your client!
826
00:41:18,671 --> 00:41:21,305
Lee Anne Marcus!
827
00:41:21,307 --> 00:41:24,175
It's your client!
828
00:41:24,177 --> 00:41:26,894
829
00:41:46,698 --> 00:41:48,949
Steady now
830
00:41:49,701 --> 00:41:53,504
Steady now
831
00:41:53,506 --> 00:41:58,626
Don't fear what you can't see
832
00:41:58,628 --> 00:42:00,878
Ready now
833
00:42:01,963 --> 00:42:04,799
Ready now
834
00:42:04,801 --> 00:42:07,551
I'll hold onto you
835
00:42:07,553 --> 00:42:11,772
You hold onto me
836
00:42:11,774 --> 00:42:13,808
Ooh...
837
00:42:13,810 --> 00:42:18,062
I found the heart of a lion
838
00:42:19,731 --> 00:42:22,983
In the belly of the beast...
839
00:42:26,872 --> 00:42:28,739
Too late for that, darling.
840
00:42:34,296 --> 00:42:35,830
Decatur.
841
00:42:40,669 --> 00:42:42,086
You're looking good as ever.
842
00:42:43,722 --> 00:42:46,290
Everything's going just as
843
00:42:46,292 --> 00:42:47,975
we planned, my dear.
844
00:42:47,977 --> 00:42:50,928
Getting everything I wanted.
845
00:42:50,930 --> 00:42:53,764
And now... it's your turn.
