Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:01,334 --> 00:00:04,064
Narrator:
In the criminal justice system,
the people are represented
2
00:00:04,104 --> 00:00:07,039
by two separate yet
equally important groupsââ
3
00:00:07,073 --> 00:00:08,700
the police
who investigate crime,
4
00:00:08,742 --> 00:00:11,438
and the district attorneys
who prosecute the offenders.
5
00:00:11,478 --> 00:00:13,742
These are their stories.
6
00:00:17,684 --> 00:00:20,619
( police radio chatter)
7
00:00:26,960 --> 00:00:29,326
I want the Caddy.
8
00:00:29,362 --> 00:00:31,489
I'm happy with the velour,
not even leather.
9
00:00:31,531 --> 00:00:32,657
I'm happy.
10
00:00:32,699 --> 00:00:34,564
What do I
end up with?
11
00:00:34,601 --> 00:00:37,365
A damn Asian antâbox.
12
00:00:37,404 --> 00:00:39,395
(chuckling)
13
00:00:54,554 --> 00:00:56,579
Must have
forgot their keys.
14
00:00:56,623 --> 00:00:58,614
Hold it,
we got a vic.
15
00:01:00,093 --> 00:01:02,027
( siren blares )
16
00:01:02,062 --> 00:01:04,326
( tires screech )
17
00:01:08,334 --> 00:01:10,666
Cop #2:
Watch it, Eddie,
he's got a gun!
18
00:01:24,517 --> 00:01:27,918
Cop #2:
Eddie, forget the kid!
This guy's checking out.
19
00:01:38,665 --> 00:01:42,226
Since when's
a ham sandwich
$2.75, Jesus?
20
00:01:42,268 --> 00:01:44,498
Since
last Friday.
21
00:01:44,537 --> 00:01:47,335
I didn't know
ptomaine had gone up.
22
00:01:47,373 --> 00:01:49,341
We don't use
none of that.
23
00:01:49,375 --> 00:01:51,002
It's all homemade.
24
00:01:51,044 --> 00:01:53,274
( siren blurts )
25
00:01:59,819 --> 00:02:01,719
What?
26
00:02:01,754 --> 00:02:04,279
We got a 10â20.
Could be a homicide.
27
00:02:04,324 --> 00:02:05,848
Vic conscious?
28
00:02:05,892 --> 00:02:08,360
Nope. Ambulance
is on the way.
29
00:02:08,394 --> 00:02:10,521
Around
the potholes, ehâ?
30
00:02:10,563 --> 00:02:12,622
Suit's just back
from the cleaners.
31
00:02:21,174 --> 00:02:22,971
Odds?
32
00:02:23,009 --> 00:02:25,341
Medic:
50-50, but I'm
an optimist.
33
00:02:26,746 --> 00:02:28,941
Detective:
I've seen this guy.
34
00:02:30,517 --> 00:02:33,645
Hochmeyerl
35
00:02:33,686 --> 00:02:35,654
Any IDâ?
36
00:02:35,688 --> 00:02:37,485
He took his wallet,
but we ran the car.
37
00:02:37,524 --> 00:02:40,254
Who owns the Benz?
Eddie, come on.
38
00:02:40,293 --> 00:02:43,387
It's registered
to Charles Halsey
in Kew Gardens.
39
00:02:46,933 --> 00:02:49,629
Oh, that's great.
That's just terrific.
40
00:02:49,669 --> 00:02:51,227
You know the guy?
41
00:02:51,271 --> 00:02:53,398
Councilman Halsey?
Ring a bell?
42
00:02:53,439 --> 00:02:55,430
The dirtbag who's
always mouthing off
43
00:02:55,475 --> 00:02:57,568
about the streets
being unsafe?
44
00:02:57,610 --> 00:02:59,737
I hate
media cases.
45
00:04:24,497 --> 00:04:26,897
They try to get
close to you,
46
00:04:26,933 --> 00:04:30,164
looking for anything
they can get 500 words
out of you.
47
00:04:30,203 --> 00:04:32,831
99% ofthem don't care
about you, the case,
orwho they hurt.
48
00:04:32,872 --> 00:04:34,362
They just want
to sell papers.
49
00:04:34,407 --> 00:04:37,035
If you talk to them,
they start calling you
at the office,
50
00:04:37,076 --> 00:04:40,512
tying up the lines.
If you don't talk
to them,
51
00:04:40,546 --> 00:04:43,014
they start writing
about how "the police
are stymied."
52
00:04:43,049 --> 00:04:45,574
Then the calls come in
from the brass downtown.
53
00:04:45,618 --> 00:04:47,916
You can't
smoke in here.
It's not lit.
54
00:04:47,954 --> 00:04:49,080
( reporters chattering )
55
00:04:49,122 --> 00:04:52,387
Not bad, Max.
A prophet in your
own time.
56
00:04:52,425 --> 00:04:54,290
Man:
...it was big news
to you people.
57
00:04:54,327 --> 00:04:56,522
Then you got tired
of hearing the truth.
58
00:04:56,562 --> 00:04:58,689
Sure, you were
at his press conferences,
59
00:04:58,731 --> 00:05:00,995
but he was just
exercising his lungs.
60
00:05:01,034 --> 00:05:04,265
Now do you understand
what Chuck Halsey was
screaming about?
61
00:05:04,304 --> 00:05:06,295
Our streets aren't safe
for anyone.
62
00:05:06,339 --> 00:05:10,002
You can check
with our ofďŹce
on Chuck's condition.
63
00:05:10,043 --> 00:05:11,943
We'll have regular
medical updates.
64
00:05:11,978 --> 00:05:13,605
Thank you, ladies
and gentlemen.
65
00:05:13,646 --> 00:05:15,443
( reporters shouting )
66
00:05:15,481 --> 00:05:18,780
Do you have any idea what
your husband was doing
in that neighborhood?
67
00:05:18,818 --> 00:05:21,286
Excuse me.
Reporter:
Okay, got it.
68
00:05:21,321 --> 00:05:24,620
P.A.:
Dr. Goldman, you have
a visitor in your ofďŹce...
69
00:05:27,894 --> 00:05:31,295
He made it
through surgery.
That's halfthe battle.
70
00:05:31,331 --> 00:05:33,765
We'll call immediately
if anything changes.
71
00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:35,791
Thank you,
Doctor.
72
00:05:36,836 --> 00:05:38,531
Who are you?
73
00:05:38,571 --> 00:05:41,438
I'm Detective Logan,
this is Detective Greevey.
74
00:05:41,474 --> 00:05:43,135
I'm sorry about
your husband, ma'am.
75
00:05:43,176 --> 00:05:45,076
You're the investigating
officers?
76
00:05:45,111 --> 00:05:47,841
Max: Mmâhmm.
We heard it was
two black kids.
77
00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:50,644
You have
anything else?
Not yet.
78
00:05:50,683 --> 00:05:53,652
Could you give me
a description of his
personal items, ma'am?
79
00:05:54,687 --> 00:05:56,678
He always
carried...
80
00:05:56,723 --> 00:05:59,055
a brown alligator
wallet,
81
00:05:59,092 --> 00:06:02,118
and he had
a star sapphire ring
82
00:06:02,161 --> 00:06:03,526
and...
83
00:06:03,563 --> 00:06:05,531
a gold
and diamond Rolex.
84
00:06:05,565 --> 00:06:07,999
And he always had
about $500 cash.
85
00:06:08,034 --> 00:06:10,867
Your husband have
any enemies?
86
00:06:10,903 --> 00:06:12,302
M a n :
Chuck Halsey is one
of the most respected
87
00:06:12,338 --> 00:06:14,329
and liked men
in this district.
88
00:06:14,374 --> 00:06:17,002
I'm sure he is.
Ma'am?
89
00:06:17,043 --> 00:06:20,479
What are you asking?
I thought you knew
who did it.
90
00:06:20,513 --> 00:06:22,071
Logan:
Two black kids
were there,
91
00:06:22,115 --> 00:06:23,776
but they
didn't drive him
to that location.
92
00:06:23,816 --> 00:06:26,148
Do you have any idea
what he was doing
out there?
93
00:06:28,187 --> 00:06:30,451
Chuck had
a political dinner.
94
00:06:30,490 --> 00:06:32,981
I was there.
It ended around 10:30.
95
00:06:33,025 --> 00:06:35,152
Logan: Did he
leave alone?
I have no idea.
96
00:06:35,194 --> 00:06:38,095
You going to be able
to catch these...
97
00:06:38,131 --> 00:06:40,122
kids?
98
00:06:41,667 --> 00:06:44,602
I'm not going to lieââ
it'll take a break
or a miracle.
99
00:06:44,637 --> 00:06:46,468
What kind
of miracle?
100
00:06:46,506 --> 00:06:49,737
One ofthem walking in
and confessing might help.
101
00:06:51,544 --> 00:06:56,208
We have to get back
to the precinct garage.
102
00:06:56,249 --> 00:06:58,717
We'll try to get
your car to you as soon
as possible, ma'am.
103
00:06:58,751 --> 00:07:00,616
Thank you,
Detective.
104
00:07:03,189 --> 00:07:06,818
It's okay...
it's okay.
105
00:07:08,561 --> 00:07:11,086
That was smart.
106
00:07:11,130 --> 00:07:13,724
There's no sense in her
having any illusions.
107
00:07:13,766 --> 00:07:18,362
Rightââ Conti got a real charge
out of your sense of humor.
108
00:07:18,404 --> 00:07:20,463
Yeah...?
109
00:07:20,506 --> 00:07:24,374
Are you trying to tell me
this thing plays straight?
110
00:07:24,410 --> 00:07:27,106
Let's check
Halsey's car.
111
00:07:27,146 --> 00:07:30,309
What was he doing there
after a political dinner?
112
00:07:31,584 --> 00:07:34,280
Let's check
the car.
113
00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:37,221
Whoa, wait a minute.
Wait a minute.
114
00:07:37,256 --> 00:07:39,281
What have you got?
115
00:07:40,893 --> 00:07:43,225
Old rumors.
116
00:07:43,262 --> 00:07:46,163
That's great.
What kind?
117
00:07:46,199 --> 00:07:49,896
Rumorwas, he ran the pad
in the criminal courts.
118
00:07:49,936 --> 00:07:52,302
He's a bagman?
119
00:07:52,338 --> 00:07:54,169
Was...
120
00:07:54,207 --> 00:07:56,573
if you believe
the rumors.
121
00:07:58,344 --> 00:08:01,313
This really frosts
my cookies, Max.
122
00:08:01,347 --> 00:08:03,747
You mind telling me
why you didn't tell me?
123
00:08:03,783 --> 00:08:05,410
Because you're already
124
00:08:05,451 --> 00:08:08,113
leaping to conclusions,
for Pete's sakes.
125
00:08:09,288 --> 00:08:11,882
About the only probable
conclusion we can draw
126
00:08:11,924 --> 00:08:14,449
is that the black kids
took whatever they found.
127
00:08:17,864 --> 00:08:20,094
Let's check the car.
128
00:08:25,171 --> 00:08:26,832
( power tools whirring )
129
00:08:26,873 --> 00:08:29,603
60 bucks
for a damn key.
130
00:08:31,177 --> 00:08:33,668
Could've popped the thing
for nothing.
131
00:08:33,713 --> 00:08:36,546
The car belongs
to a councilman.
132
00:08:39,619 --> 00:08:41,211
Is that real?
133
00:08:41,254 --> 00:08:42,846
How much?
134
00:08:43,923 --> 00:08:45,652
12 and up.
135
00:08:45,691 --> 00:08:49,252
Must be crazy
about his old lady.
136
00:08:52,698 --> 00:08:55,223
I don't want to tell her,
but what else can we do?
137
00:08:55,268 --> 00:08:57,327
But Halsey could still
pull through, right?
138
00:08:57,370 --> 00:09:00,134
Eight to fiveââ
against.
139
00:09:00,172 --> 00:09:02,470
The surgeon says
it's in God's hands.
140
00:09:02,508 --> 00:09:04,237
Cragen :
That must be
comforting.
141
00:09:04,277 --> 00:09:05,676
Well?
142
00:09:05,711 --> 00:09:08,908
The guy wakes up, and the coat
wasn't for the wife,
143
00:09:08,948 --> 00:09:10,711
and we've told her.
144
00:09:10,750 --> 00:09:11,842
Thanks for your help,
Captain.
145
00:09:11,884 --> 00:09:13,875
Keep in touch.
146
00:09:17,557 --> 00:09:19,525
Since when does that mean
we don't go?
147
00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:21,720
Officer:
Hey, Max?
Yeah?
148
00:09:21,761 --> 00:09:23,490
Jacobson,
down at the Trib.
149
00:09:23,529 --> 00:09:25,520
I'm out.
150
00:09:31,437 --> 00:09:33,564
No labels.
151
00:09:33,606 --> 00:09:36,905
Maggie's got a friend.
Works for a furrier.
152
00:09:38,411 --> 00:09:40,538
Profaci:
Did you catch
the Halsey mugging?
153
00:09:40,580 --> 00:09:42,707
â Yeah.
â Give Perez a call
at Narco.
154
00:09:42,748 --> 00:09:45,581
Perez? The one
that doesn't shave?
155
00:09:45,618 --> 00:09:46,778
Yeah.
156
00:09:46,819 --> 00:09:48,343
We take down
the crack house
157
00:09:48,387 --> 00:09:50,719
and roll up this
scumball dealer,
Rodriguez,
158
00:09:50,756 --> 00:09:52,724
with half a dozen
customers.
159
00:09:52,758 --> 00:09:55,693
Rodriguez is on probation
and knows he's going back
for a deuce,
160
00:09:55,728 --> 00:09:58,561
so he gives us this kid
who he says
161
00:09:58,598 --> 00:10:00,566
came in with a wad
that he had taken off
162
00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:03,194
some white dude
in a Mercedes.
163
00:10:03,235 --> 00:10:05,567
I got in here,
164
00:10:05,605 --> 00:10:07,835
I read the APB,
and boomââ
165
00:10:07,873 --> 00:10:09,864
called upstairs.
166
00:10:12,678 --> 00:10:14,839
Logan:
Monster case
of the "yips. "
167
00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:16,973
Max:
He's good for nothing
till he comes down.
168
00:10:17,016 --> 00:10:19,712
Logan:
I'm going to have him singing
the name game in ďŹve minutes.
169
00:10:19,752 --> 00:10:22,880
What?
20?
170
00:10:30,029 --> 00:10:31,894
Rodriguez would rat out
his own mama.
171
00:10:31,931 --> 00:10:33,990
Junkie gimp
don't know nothing!
172
00:10:34,033 --> 00:10:37,002
And you ain't got squat on me
except for what he said.
173
00:10:37,036 --> 00:10:38,503
And that's just heresy.
174
00:10:38,537 --> 00:10:41,165
The word's "hearsay,"
Simonize.
175
00:10:41,207 --> 00:10:45,007
Yeah, that's it.
And I be good for "no say."
176
00:10:45,044 --> 00:10:46,841
Logan:
Heyâ- shut up.
177
00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:50,840
We don't dig
being dissed by Iightweights.
178
00:10:50,883 --> 00:10:52,942
Mike, he's not being
disrespectful.
179
00:10:52,985 --> 00:10:54,919
He's just being
reflective.
180
00:10:58,591 --> 00:11:01,059
Logan:
What are you looking at?
Turn around.
181
00:11:03,462 --> 00:11:05,862
Eight arrests
and he still doesn't get it?
182
00:11:05,898 --> 00:11:07,627
Heyââ
183
00:11:07,667 --> 00:11:11,763
judges help those
who help themselves.
184
00:11:11,804 --> 00:11:14,466
Going...
185
00:11:14,507 --> 00:11:16,600
I'm not talking about
a year at Spofford.
186
00:11:16,642 --> 00:11:19,008
Going...
187
00:11:19,045 --> 00:11:21,013
Don't be stupid.
Gone.
188
00:11:21,047 --> 00:11:23,277
Back to your cage,
Simonize.
189
00:11:23,315 --> 00:11:25,078
Get up.
190
00:11:29,021 --> 00:11:31,785
Simonize,
what a surprise.
191
00:11:31,824 --> 00:11:34,349
You getting some career
counseling from Greevey?
192
00:11:34,393 --> 00:11:37,191
I ain't done
nothing.
Such a polite young man.
193
00:11:37,229 --> 00:11:40,255
Of course you haven't.
We always arrest innocent
people, huh?
194
00:11:40,299 --> 00:11:42,028
Who's this jerk
hang with?
195
00:11:42,068 --> 00:11:44,468
How's Tremaine
these days?
I ain't seen him.
196
00:11:44,503 --> 00:11:46,903
It's amazing
how you homeboys
are always apart.
197
00:11:46,939 --> 00:11:49,100
Tremaine Lewisââ
I got his address upstairs.
198
00:11:49,141 --> 00:11:50,972
Simonize lives
with his grandmother.
199
00:11:51,010 --> 00:11:53,376
( chuckles )
Grandmother?
200
00:11:59,185 --> 00:12:01,119
( dog badrs )
201
00:12:04,924 --> 00:12:06,755
You the man?
202
00:12:06,792 --> 00:12:08,783
We sure are, honey.
203
00:12:09,829 --> 00:12:11,820
( knocking on door)
204
00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:16,968
Woman:
Who is it?
205
00:12:17,002 --> 00:12:18,867
M ax:
Police, Mrs. Jackson.
206
00:12:18,904 --> 00:12:22,203
You sure this paper says
you can do that
207
00:12:22,241 --> 00:12:24,539
even when
he ain't here?
208
00:12:24,577 --> 00:12:26,909
Yes, ma'am.
209
00:12:26,946 --> 00:12:30,882
That's a search warrant
signed by ajudge.
210
00:12:30,916 --> 00:12:32,315
Mrs. Jackson:
First time the police
211
00:12:32,351 --> 00:12:34,512
ever brought up
a search warrant.
212
00:12:36,689 --> 00:12:39,487
Simon done something
real bad this time, huh?
213
00:12:45,364 --> 00:12:46,991
Yes, ma'am...
214
00:12:47,032 --> 00:12:48,863
it looks that way.
215
00:12:50,202 --> 00:12:52,432
Lots of noise.
216
00:12:52,471 --> 00:12:54,837
Plenty of warning.
217
00:13:01,981 --> 00:13:05,439
( Max shouting)
Tremaine Lewisââ NYPD!
218
00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:09,511
Max:
Drop the gun, Tremaine!
219
00:13:22,902 --> 00:13:24,893
Max:
Give it up!
220
00:13:35,681 --> 00:13:37,649
Max:
Look at me
when I'm talking to you!
221
00:13:39,185 --> 00:13:41,653
If the councilman
croaks,
222
00:13:41,687 --> 00:13:45,646
you guys move up
to the bigsââ murder two.
223
00:13:45,691 --> 00:13:49,024
We're telling you the truth.
We didn't do nothing to him.
224
00:13:50,029 --> 00:13:51,860
You guys
willing to swear
225
00:13:51,897 --> 00:13:54,491
you two were together
the whole night?
226
00:13:54,533 --> 00:13:57,195
You got that right.
227
00:14:00,105 --> 00:14:03,336
You know what we found
in Simonize's apartment?
228
00:14:09,315 --> 00:14:11,215
I ain't never
seen that.
229
00:14:11,250 --> 00:14:14,219
Simonize,
you holding out
on your main man?
230
00:14:16,822 --> 00:14:19,814
That is the vic's watch.
231
00:14:24,430 --> 00:14:27,797
Anybody want
to make a deal?
232
00:14:27,833 --> 00:14:29,425
( door opens )
233
00:14:29,468 --> 00:14:31,629
You didn't plead
these guys, did you?
234
00:14:31,670 --> 00:14:33,865
We're still
talking.
235
00:14:33,906 --> 00:14:35,203
Stop.
236
00:14:35,241 --> 00:14:37,971
The councilman?
237
00:14:43,015 --> 00:14:45,779
Now wait
a damn minutel
238
00:14:45,818 --> 00:14:47,877
He's saying
the dude croaked?
239
00:14:47,920 --> 00:14:49,945
I'm saying,
you blew it.
240
00:14:52,258 --> 00:14:54,988
Look, he was already cut
when we got there.
241
00:14:55,027 --> 00:14:57,461
We took him off,
but we didn't do
nothing to him.
242
00:14:57,496 --> 00:14:59,930
He started to choke.
He was just lying there
bleeding.
243
00:14:59,965 --> 00:15:02,195
It was that white cat
in the Benz.
244
00:15:02,234 --> 00:15:04,759
He got out as soon as
the truck pulled off
245
00:15:04,803 --> 00:15:06,930
What truck?
246
00:15:07,940 --> 00:15:10,170
I've been thinking
about yesterday.
247
00:15:10,209 --> 00:15:13,576
That was great.
Ithought Halsey
had croaked.
248
00:15:14,647 --> 00:15:16,342
M ax:
Tony Hallowell?
Yeah ?
249
00:15:16,382 --> 00:15:19,044
I'm Detective Greevey,
this is Detective Logan.
250
00:15:19,084 --> 00:15:20,711
Is there a problem?
251
00:15:20,753 --> 00:15:23,813
Dispatcher said you
made a late delivery
on Tuesday night.
252
00:15:23,856 --> 00:15:25,221
Uhâhuh.
253
00:15:25,257 --> 00:15:27,521
Max:
Anybody else here
when you arrived?
254
00:15:27,559 --> 00:15:29,151
Just the night man.
He was inside.
255
00:15:29,194 --> 00:15:31,287
Outside?
256
00:15:31,330 --> 00:15:34,265
Yeah.
257
00:15:34,300 --> 00:15:35,858
There were
a couple of cars
parked right there.
258
00:15:35,901 --> 00:15:39,564
A gray Mercedes
and a red Jag XJS.
259
00:15:39,605 --> 00:15:41,732
Hey, that's
very observant, Tony.
260
00:15:41,774 --> 00:15:43,503
I like cars.
See anything
else?
261
00:15:43,542 --> 00:15:44,736
Yeah, when I drove in,
262
00:15:44,777 --> 00:15:46,836
there were two guys
at the rear ofthe Jag.
263
00:15:46,879 --> 00:15:49,074
Trunk pops open,
guy reaches in,
264
00:15:49,114 --> 00:15:51,514
pulls out a fur coat
and hands it
to the other guy.
265
00:15:51,550 --> 00:15:54,110
Could you
identify them?
Yeah, sure.
266
00:15:54,153 --> 00:15:55,643
Then what happened?
267
00:15:55,688 --> 00:15:57,883
The other guy
opens the trunk
of the Mercedes,
268
00:15:57,923 --> 00:16:00,949
puts it in there,
they both climb
into the Mercedes,
269
00:16:00,993 --> 00:16:03,553
and I go inside.
270
00:16:03,595 --> 00:16:06,655
Thanks.
You've been
very helpful.
271
00:16:06,699 --> 00:16:09,190
Sure.
272
00:16:09,234 --> 00:16:11,566
( police radio chatter)
273
00:16:29,088 --> 00:16:31,181
I didn't know you hung
with the carriage trade.
274
00:16:31,223 --> 00:16:32,690
Hello
to you, too.
275
00:16:32,725 --> 00:16:34,283
Max.
Maggie.
276
00:16:34,326 --> 00:16:36,294
Second floor.
277
00:16:36,328 --> 00:16:39,627
Talk to her boss.
She thinks he'll know
who made it.
278
00:16:39,665 --> 00:16:42,156
So is this good
for a dinner?
279
00:16:42,201 --> 00:16:44,192
That depends on what
dinner's good for.
280
00:16:44,236 --> 00:16:45,794
on...
Let's put it
this wayââ
281
00:16:45,838 --> 00:16:47,703
you don't have
a chance in hell
without it.
282
00:16:47,740 --> 00:16:51,005
Very cold,
Maggie.
So light my fire.
283
00:16:53,846 --> 00:16:57,612
Then among lynx,
there are as many variations
as there are among people.
284
00:16:57,649 --> 00:17:01,176
So is this coat
"Meryl Streep" or
"Whoopi Goldberg"?
285
00:17:01,220 --> 00:17:03,313
More the latter
than the former,
I'm afraid.
286
00:17:03,355 --> 00:17:05,983
Canadian farm grown,
male peltââ basic coat,
287
00:17:06,025 --> 00:17:08,585
not a designer's.
Flash, but basically
trash.
288
00:17:08,627 --> 00:17:10,754
Would you mind ifwe
cut to the chase,
Mr. Farber?
289
00:17:10,796 --> 00:17:13,959
Ohââ there are three
furriers who do this
type of garbage goods.
290
00:17:13,999 --> 00:17:16,160
Your best bet
is Kornbluth on 22nd.
291
00:17:16,201 --> 00:17:18,032
M a n :
They're Russians,
usually.
292
00:17:18,070 --> 00:17:21,301
Don't give them a dime
until you have the pelts.
293
00:17:22,408 --> 00:17:24,205
What?
294
00:17:24,243 --> 00:17:25,676
Are you
Kornbluth?
295
00:17:25,711 --> 00:17:28,202
There hasn't been
a Kornbluth here since 1957.
296
00:17:28,247 --> 00:17:30,215
I'm S\Nersky.
What do you want?
297
00:17:30,249 --> 00:17:32,308
Where's
the owner?
298
00:17:32,351 --> 00:17:34,444
What is this,
"20 questions"?
299
00:17:34,486 --> 00:17:36,545
I'm Detective
Logan...
300
00:17:36,588 --> 00:17:38,180
and this is
Detective Greevey.
301
00:17:38,223 --> 00:17:40,783
Now, is this
your coat?
302
00:17:43,328 --> 00:17:46,297
Possibleââ it looks
like one of mine...
303
00:17:46,331 --> 00:17:48,492
but I don't know
every coat.
304
00:17:48,534 --> 00:17:51,731
Now you're starting
to tick me off, Mr. S\Nersky.
305
00:17:51,770 --> 00:17:55,103
Why is it
I think Mr. S\Nersky
recognized that coat
306
00:17:55,140 --> 00:17:57,108
the minute
it walked in the door?
307
00:17:57,142 --> 00:17:58,734
You want to tell me
what you want?
308
00:17:58,777 --> 00:18:00,608
No.
309
00:18:00,646 --> 00:18:02,580
Who bought
the coat?
310
00:18:02,614 --> 00:18:04,377
It was a gift.
( scoffs )
311
00:18:04,416 --> 00:18:06,509
What kind of car
do you drive?
312
00:18:06,552 --> 00:18:08,315
A Cadillac
Coupe de Ville.
313
00:18:08,353 --> 00:18:10,048
Why?
314
00:18:10,089 --> 00:18:11,886
Who was the gift for?
315
00:18:11,924 --> 00:18:13,755
You know,
I really think
316
00:18:13,792 --> 00:18:16,625
maybe I should give
my attorney a call now.
317
00:18:18,097 --> 00:18:20,088
Absolutely.
318
00:18:21,100 --> 00:18:22,795
M ax:
Feel free.
319
00:18:22,835 --> 00:18:25,736
Maybe I should give Gaffner
a call down at the firehouse.
320
00:18:25,771 --> 00:18:29,730
Aren't some of those pelts
covering fire sprinklers?
321
00:18:29,775 --> 00:18:33,211
And call Ulasewicz
at the Buildings
Department.
322
00:18:33,245 --> 00:18:35,611
I saw a lot
of violations.
323
00:18:35,647 --> 00:18:37,979
(sighs)
324
00:18:40,018 --> 00:18:42,009
Tony Scalisi.
325
00:18:43,755 --> 00:18:46,087
Where do I know
that name?
326
00:18:49,495 --> 00:18:51,554
Masucci family.
327
00:18:51,597 --> 00:18:55,124
If he finds out
I told you...
328
00:18:55,167 --> 00:18:56,998
Why'd he want
the coat?
329
00:18:57,035 --> 00:18:58,798
What am I,
"Carnac"?
330
00:18:58,837 --> 00:19:00,828
( laughs )
331
00:19:02,941 --> 00:19:05,967
Trucker give you
a positive ID?
Right from
the picture.
332
00:19:06,011 --> 00:19:07,979
Logan:
So did Lewis
and Jackson.
333
00:19:08,013 --> 00:19:11,505
Read the rap sheet.
Mr. Scalisi likes
to slice and dice.
334
00:19:11,550 --> 00:19:15,281
And guess who leases
a red Jaguar XJS?
335
00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:17,515
Halsey regained
consciousness?
336
00:19:17,556 --> 00:19:19,285
Doctors aren't
very optimistic.
337
00:19:19,324 --> 00:19:23,124
Captain, why don't we
wait to see if Halsey
buys the farm?
338
00:19:23,162 --> 00:19:24,925
Murder's
a better collar.
339
00:19:24,963 --> 00:19:26,988
Captain:
I'm getting
my butt barbecued!
340
00:19:27,032 --> 00:19:29,557
Borough president called
for a task force.
341
00:19:29,601 --> 00:19:31,091
He wants
to take it
away from us.
342
00:19:31,136 --> 00:19:33,229
Deputy Commander
Jefferson calls
twice a day.
343
00:19:33,272 --> 00:19:34,671
What's he want?
344
00:19:34,706 --> 00:19:36,264
He doesn't want me
to forget this is
345
00:19:36,308 --> 00:19:38,606
a politically
sensitive case.
346
00:19:42,314 --> 00:19:45,647
I don't want to wait.
Get a warrant.
347
00:19:46,919 --> 00:19:48,978
Go on.
348
00:19:49,988 --> 00:19:51,580
Yes, sir.
349
00:19:58,730 --> 00:20:01,893
Which "night school
Clarence Darrow" is
handling this?
350
00:20:03,702 --> 00:20:05,761
Name's
Robinette.
351
00:20:06,972 --> 00:20:08,837
20 says
he won't file.
352
00:20:10,209 --> 00:20:12,803
These defensive bets
are going to kill you.
353
00:20:14,680 --> 00:20:17,274
( random chatter)
354
00:20:23,522 --> 00:20:25,251
Counsel:
And then what happened?
355
00:20:25,290 --> 00:20:27,349
After that,
picks up the baby,
356
00:20:27,392 --> 00:20:29,519
and he starts
shaking her,
357
00:20:29,561 --> 00:20:32,155
and her head just
starts flopping...
358
00:20:32,197 --> 00:20:34,461
Counsel:
Is that when
you called 911?
359
00:20:36,635 --> 00:20:37,966
Counsel #2:
If it was selfâdefense,
360
00:20:38,003 --> 00:20:39,994
how come you shot him
in the back?
361
00:20:43,809 --> 00:20:45,538
Robinette?
362
00:20:45,577 --> 00:20:47,204
Robinette:
Er... Logan?
363
00:20:47,246 --> 00:20:49,237
Greevey.
He's Logan.
364
00:20:50,949 --> 00:20:54,180
Stone's willing to file,
but it's a reach.
365
00:20:55,587 --> 00:20:59,284
I've sent a lot of guys
away on circumstantial
evidence.
366
00:20:59,324 --> 00:21:01,519
Anyway,
I think this is
more than that.
367
00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:04,586
What kind of "more"?
You knowthat Halsey
was a bagman?
368
00:21:04,630 --> 00:21:07,428
Stone
mentioned that.
369
00:21:07,466 --> 00:21:09,991
Then mention to Stone
that Deputy Commander
Jefferson
370
00:21:10,035 --> 00:21:12,003
has been
nosing around.
371
00:21:12,037 --> 00:21:15,438
Tell him I thought
he'd like to know.
372
00:21:15,474 --> 00:21:18,204
You're new, aren't you?
How long you been
with Stone?
373
00:21:18,243 --> 00:21:19,574
Eight months.
374
00:21:19,611 --> 00:21:21,670
Must be a record.
375
00:21:23,181 --> 00:21:25,547
See you
in court.
376
00:21:31,023 --> 00:21:33,184
Must be out.
No answer.
377
00:21:33,225 --> 00:21:36,820
You guys
just got lucky.
Here he comes.
378
00:21:36,862 --> 00:21:41,424
( groans )
I hate pit bulls.
379
00:21:41,466 --> 00:21:45,027
If he drops the leash,
shoot the dog first.
Go over there.
380
00:21:48,740 --> 00:21:50,605
Anthony Scalisi...
381
00:21:50,642 --> 00:21:52,610
I have a warrant
for your arrest.
Don't move.
382
00:21:53,712 --> 00:21:56,078
( dog growling )
383
00:22:00,218 --> 00:22:01,685
What's the charge?
384
00:22:01,720 --> 00:22:03,347
Assault with
a deadly weapon,
385
00:22:03,388 --> 00:22:05,822
and the attempted murder
of Charles Halsey.
386
00:22:05,857 --> 00:22:08,792
( barks )
387
00:22:08,827 --> 00:22:11,091
"Spuds" moves,
you're history.
388
00:22:16,601 --> 00:22:19,126
Criminal possession
of a weapon in the third degree,
389
00:22:19,171 --> 00:22:21,969
criminal possession of a weapon
in the second degree, assault
in the second degree,
390
00:22:22,007 --> 00:22:24,441
assault in the first degree,
attempted murder in the second
degree.
391
00:22:24,476 --> 00:22:26,774
Counselor, waive reading
ofthe rights and charges?
392
00:22:26,812 --> 00:22:28,905
Attorney:
So waived.
How does
your client plead?
393
00:22:28,947 --> 00:22:30,380
Not guilty.
394
00:22:30,415 --> 00:22:32,747
Judge:
People on bail?
395
00:22:32,784 --> 00:22:34,752
Your Honor,
the defendant has been
396
00:22:34,786 --> 00:22:36,617
convicted
of murder once before,
397
00:22:36,655 --> 00:22:38,589
he is a repeat offender,
398
00:22:38,623 --> 00:22:40,750
he's a soldier
in the Masucci family,
399
00:22:40,792 --> 00:22:42,521
and is considered
a flight risk.
400
00:22:42,561 --> 00:22:45,325
This office requests
that he be held without bail.
401
00:22:45,364 --> 00:22:47,355
Afraid I'm loath
to withhold bail
402
00:22:47,399 --> 00:22:50,129
on all except
homicide cases,
Counselor.
403
00:22:51,303 --> 00:22:53,237
$100,000,
404
00:22:53,271 --> 00:22:55,296
cash or bond.
405
00:22:55,340 --> 00:22:57,274
Short date.
406
00:23:00,045 --> 00:23:02,343
I thought Stone
would be here.
407
00:23:02,381 --> 00:23:04,212
At a button man's
arraignment?
408
00:23:04,249 --> 00:23:06,649
Have no fear,
Stone's looking forward
to seeing you in court.
409
00:23:06,685 --> 00:23:08,118
What's his
schedule like?
410
00:23:08,153 --> 00:23:09,984
Depends on who's
coming to call.
411
00:23:10,021 --> 00:23:13,388
Come on, Paul,
this whole thing's just
one step above a roust.
412
00:23:13,425 --> 00:23:14,915
It's a twoâminute
negotiation.
413
00:23:14,960 --> 00:23:17,326
I wouldn't count on it.
Halsey's still touch and go.
414
00:23:17,362 --> 00:23:21,856
Give me a breakââ nobody
dies of a knife wound
a week later.
415
00:23:21,900 --> 00:23:23,731
Predicate violence?
416
00:23:23,769 --> 00:23:27,000
Stone hates pleading
on predicate violence.
417
00:23:34,846 --> 00:23:36,609
( knocks on door)
418
00:23:38,683 --> 00:23:40,981
( softly )
Cosmatos.
419
00:23:41,019 --> 00:23:43,044
Call me
irresponsible,
Eddie,
420
00:23:43,088 --> 00:23:45,056
but I like you.
421
00:23:45,090 --> 00:23:47,024
You 're a hell
of a lawyer,
422
00:23:47,058 --> 00:23:50,425
that's why I'm amazed
how incredibly guilty
your clients are.
423
00:23:50,462 --> 00:23:52,430
Scalisi is lower
than snake spit.
424
00:23:52,464 --> 00:23:55,092
You want to waste more
of your client's money,
425
00:23:55,133 --> 00:23:57,226
come on down
Thursday.
426
00:24:00,872 --> 00:24:03,102
I'm Eddie Cosmatos...
427
00:24:03,141 --> 00:24:05,541
I can't wait to put this
in front of ajury.
428
00:24:05,577 --> 00:24:09,035
Two black kids are found
with the victim's possessions.
429
00:24:09,080 --> 00:24:11,378
The other eyewitness
puts Scalisi there,
430
00:24:11,416 --> 00:24:13,077
but the only time they saw him
was when he was with Halsey,
431
00:24:13,118 --> 00:24:16,576
who was perfectly fine.
So why does Eddie want
to plea his client?
432
00:24:16,621 --> 00:24:19,146
Judicial calendar
doesn't publish until next week.
433
00:24:19,191 --> 00:24:22,786
Scalisi draws Robards
or Kapstein...
434
00:24:22,828 --> 00:24:24,591
He gets 15
to life.
435
00:24:24,629 --> 00:24:26,824
He draws
Rosen or Gonzales,
he gets an apology.
436
00:24:26,865 --> 00:24:29,663
So what do 99
defense lawyers
out of 100 do?
437
00:24:29,701 --> 00:24:31,328
Wait for the calendar
to come out.
438
00:24:31,369 --> 00:24:34,770
And you only make
5% of what Eddie makes.
439
00:24:34,806 --> 00:24:38,207
What did Greevey mean
about Deputy Commander
Jefferson?
440
00:24:38,243 --> 00:24:40,677
Jefferson and I
don't dance.
441
00:24:40,712 --> 00:24:42,976
Guy's a hero.
442
00:24:43,014 --> 00:24:45,141
He's a lying,
twoâfaced bastard.
443
00:24:45,183 --> 00:24:46,741
Wait a minuteââ
444
00:24:46,785 --> 00:24:48,650
I grew up around
the corner from him.
445
00:24:48,687 --> 00:24:50,279
He coached
my Little League team.
446
00:24:50,322 --> 00:24:52,654
I wouldn't
even be a lawyer
if it wasn't for him.
447
00:24:52,691 --> 00:24:54,682
I'm sure his dog
loves him, too.
448
00:24:54,726 --> 00:24:56,819
You know
how many black kids
look up to him?
449
00:24:56,862 --> 00:24:58,955
He's one
ofthe highest ranking
black cops ever.
450
00:24:58,997 --> 00:25:01,124
If he's wrong,
he's wrong.
451
00:25:01,166 --> 00:25:03,259
If he's so wrong,
how come nobody knows it?
452
00:25:03,301 --> 00:25:05,098
I know it.
453
00:25:05,136 --> 00:25:07,127
Come on,
let's beat the traffic.
454
00:25:13,845 --> 00:25:16,712
Stone:
I used to hear things
about Halsey a long time ago,
455
00:25:16,748 --> 00:25:19,114
but he's had a good reputation
the last 10 years.
456
00:25:19,150 --> 00:25:21,015
Funny thing
about reputationsââ
457
00:25:21,052 --> 00:25:22,349
Don't start
on that, Paul.
458
00:25:22,387 --> 00:25:24,218
I just thinkââ
You 're not thinking.
459
00:25:24,256 --> 00:25:27,521
If Jefferson was white,
you wouldn't doubt a word
I'm saying.
460
00:25:27,559 --> 00:25:30,187
Only reason
he's still got a badge
is because he's black.
461
00:25:30,228 --> 00:25:33,891
Really?
Then why don't you just
tell me what the hell he did?
462
00:25:33,932 --> 00:25:36,196
He perjured himself
as a captain.
463
00:25:36,234 --> 00:25:39,897
Changed his testimony on me.
Somebody bought him.
That's one.
464
00:25:39,938 --> 00:25:43,533
Another time
he doctored evidence
in a numbers case.
465
00:25:43,575 --> 00:25:46,009
I'm not going
to do this, Paul.
466
00:25:46,044 --> 00:25:47,944
You're either on my team,
or Jefferson's.
467
00:25:54,185 --> 00:25:56,585
Since he never
discussed business
with me,
468
00:25:56,621 --> 00:26:00,057
I had no idea
he was involved
in illegal activities.
469
00:26:00,091 --> 00:26:03,492
Wejust had dinner
with Deputy Police
Commander Jefferson
470
00:26:03,528 --> 00:26:04,995
and his wife,
for God's sake.
471
00:26:05,030 --> 00:26:06,861
Boy: Mom?
472
00:26:06,898 --> 00:26:09,230
I'm going to head
on over to Gran's.
473
00:26:09,267 --> 00:26:11,531
She's still a little shaky.
I'll be back in an hour.
474
00:26:11,570 --> 00:26:13,401
Okay, son.
475
00:26:19,644 --> 00:26:22,704
Kenneth was going
to Annapolis.
476
00:26:22,747 --> 00:26:25,773
But with what's going
to come out,
477
00:26:25,817 --> 00:26:29,150
he'll never be able to get
a Congressional appointment.
478
00:26:29,187 --> 00:26:32,418
Mr. Halsey neverwanted
Mrs. Halsey to be burdened
479
00:26:32,457 --> 00:26:34,789
with unnecessary
business details.
480
00:26:34,826 --> 00:26:37,158
Is there anything else
you'd like to knoW?
481
00:26:37,195 --> 00:26:39,186
Her coat size?
482
00:26:44,002 --> 00:26:45,902
12--
Iwear a 12.
483
00:26:45,937 --> 00:26:47,905
Thank you, Mrs. Halsey.
One more thingââ
484
00:26:47,939 --> 00:26:50,601
did you ever hear of somebody
called Anthony Scalisi?
485
00:26:50,642 --> 00:26:52,610
No, I don't recall
that name. Why?
486
00:26:52,644 --> 00:26:55,135
He was the man we suspect
attacked your husband.
487
00:26:55,180 --> 00:26:58,081
A black boy
named Scalisi?
488
00:26:58,116 --> 00:27:01,142
Two blacks in custody
confessed to robbing
your husband,
489
00:27:01,186 --> 00:27:03,017
but Scalisi was the one
who slashed him.
490
00:27:03,054 --> 00:27:06,251
Do you have any idea
why somebody might want
to attack Mr. Halsey?
491
00:27:06,291 --> 00:27:09,590
Mrs. Halsey already told you
she didn't know Tony Scalisi.
492
00:27:09,628 --> 00:27:11,596
Mr. Wentzel,
we won't take up
493
00:27:11,630 --> 00:27:13,325
any more
of Mrs. Halsey's time,
494
00:27:13,365 --> 00:27:16,198
but why don't you let us
buy you a cup of coffee?
495
00:27:17,369 --> 00:27:19,337
Stone:
Mrs. Halsey
wears a size 12.
496
00:27:19,371 --> 00:27:20,929
And the coat
is an eight.
497
00:27:20,972 --> 00:27:23,463
Who is she,
Mr. Wentzel?
You can't
be serious.
498
00:27:23,508 --> 00:27:25,442
I can't tell youââ
499
00:27:25,477 --> 00:27:27,308
You're going to make me
very angry if you finish
that sentence.
500
00:27:27,345 --> 00:27:29,813
What is this?
We're talking
privacy here.
501
00:27:29,848 --> 00:27:32,373
No, we're talking
obstruction here.
502
00:27:32,417 --> 00:27:36,046
Wait a damn secondââ
No, you wait.
This case stinks.
503
00:27:36,087 --> 00:27:39,352
Your friend was
a bagman long before
he was a councilman.
504
00:27:39,391 --> 00:27:41,325
Old habits die hard.
505
00:27:41,359 --> 00:27:43,827
I'm going to start
sending out subpoenas.
506
00:27:43,862 --> 00:27:47,354
If I find out you had
knowledge of person
or persons
507
00:27:47,399 --> 00:27:50,129
who were involved
with your friend
in illegal activity,
508
00:27:50,168 --> 00:27:52,193
I'll have your butt.
509
00:27:55,106 --> 00:27:57,597
Now what's her name,
Mr. Wentzel?
510
00:28:02,947 --> 00:28:05,677
Alicia Heslin?
511
00:28:05,717 --> 00:28:08,618
Um... she's
in S\Neaters.
512
00:28:13,558 --> 00:28:15,048
Miss Heslin?
513
00:28:15,093 --> 00:28:16,617
Yes?
514
00:28:16,661 --> 00:28:18,253
My name's
Paul Robinette.
515
00:28:18,296 --> 00:28:20,355
I'm from
the District Attorney's
office.
516
00:28:20,398 --> 00:28:21,922
Yes?
517
00:28:21,966 --> 00:28:23,627
I'd like to ask you
a few questions.
518
00:28:23,668 --> 00:28:24,930
About what?
519
00:28:24,969 --> 00:28:27,301
ChaďŹes Halsey.
520
00:28:28,306 --> 00:28:30,604
(sighing)
Oh...
521
00:28:30,642 --> 00:28:32,872
I've been
expecting you.
522
00:28:37,315 --> 00:28:40,250
Stone:
I like the ston/ you wrote
on Congressman MacGruder.
523
00:28:40,285 --> 00:28:43,049
So what
do you want?
524
00:28:43,088 --> 00:28:46,080
Everything you got
on Charles Halsey.
525
00:28:49,194 --> 00:28:51,754
How much do you know
about parking meters?
526
00:28:51,796 --> 00:28:53,661
They all run fast.
527
00:28:53,698 --> 00:28:56,064
And a lot of people
who get tickets
don't pay them.
528
00:28:56,101 --> 00:28:59,764
Collecting all that money
for all those unpaid tickets
529
00:28:59,804 --> 00:29:03,035
is a very big headache
for the head ofthe Parking
Violations Bureau.
530
00:29:03,074 --> 00:29:05,406
He has to get a little
"outside help."
531
00:29:05,443 --> 00:29:07,968
That means
a big contract.
532
00:29:08,012 --> 00:29:10,879
Ven/ big,
very lucrative contract.
533
00:29:10,915 --> 00:29:12,610
Who has it?
534
00:29:12,650 --> 00:29:16,279
Interesting little company
called, "Carnegie Collections."
535
00:29:16,321 --> 00:29:18,050
She's got
"champagne tastes"ââ
536
00:29:18,089 --> 00:29:20,387
Cartier watch,
alligator shoes.
537
00:29:20,425 --> 00:29:22,086
When she first
heard about it,
538
00:29:22,127 --> 00:29:24,493
she thought he might have
been trying to commit suicide.
539
00:29:24,529 --> 00:29:25,860
Why, was he
depressed?
540
00:29:25,897 --> 00:29:27,159
He 'd been
subpoenaedââ
541
00:29:27,198 --> 00:29:29,962
Federal Grand Jury
on Municipal Corruption.
542
00:29:30,001 --> 00:29:31,491
Oh, and how's
this grab you?
543
00:29:31,536 --> 00:29:34,164
Her apartment lease is made out
to "Carnegie Collections."
544
00:29:34,205 --> 00:29:37,436
She wear
a size eight coat?
Right offthe rack.
545
00:29:37,475 --> 00:29:38,840
He tell her
names?
546
00:29:38,877 --> 00:29:40,742
Last month, it was
all he talked aboutââ
547
00:29:40,779 --> 00:29:42,679
who had done what
to whom and how
they had done it.
548
00:29:42,714 --> 00:29:43,942
Will she testify?
549
00:29:43,982 --> 00:29:47,145
Most of it's
unusable anyway.
550
00:29:47,185 --> 00:29:49,380
"Chuck told me
that Scalisi told him
551
00:29:49,420 --> 00:29:51,615
that Van Damme told him..."
That kind ofthing.
552
00:29:51,656 --> 00:29:54,284
She did say
he couldn't figure out
how this was happening
553
00:29:54,325 --> 00:29:57,089
since he had "a Deputy
Police Commander
in his pocket."
554
00:29:58,129 --> 00:29:59,790
Man:
I can tell you now
555
00:29:59,831 --> 00:30:02,800
that six days
of jun! deliberation
did have me worried.
556
00:30:02,834 --> 00:30:05,735
Reporter:
You must be pleased with
the verdict, Deputy Commander.
557
00:30:05,770 --> 00:30:07,965
I am, Chuck,
I truly am.
558
00:30:08,006 --> 00:30:10,099
Our high schools
must be protected
559
00:30:10,141 --> 00:30:12,769
from the drugâdealing scum
tn/ing to poison our children.
560
00:30:12,811 --> 00:30:15,143
Reporter:
Mr. Jeffersonââ?
Deputy Commander,
can I ask you this?
561
00:30:15,180 --> 00:30:18,308
Do you feel the impact
of this verdict will be
felt on the streets?
562
00:30:23,354 --> 00:30:25,151
How deep
does this go?
563
00:30:25,190 --> 00:30:28,648
It's not confined
to the Parking Violations
Bureau, that's for sure.
564
00:30:28,693 --> 00:30:31,560
Why not?
Halsey's been
the bagman for 20 years.
565
00:30:31,596 --> 00:30:32,995
There's police
he's mobbed up,
566
00:30:33,031 --> 00:30:35,192
and according
to a reporter I know,
567
00:30:35,233 --> 00:30:37,064
several other councilmen
and politicians
568
00:30:37,101 --> 00:30:39,262
are stockholders
in Carnegie Collections...
569
00:30:39,304 --> 00:30:42,899
as well as the Deputy
Police Commander,
one William Jefferson.
570
00:30:42,941 --> 00:30:46,104
Is this personal?
Is that why you want
to bring the feds in?
571
00:30:46,144 --> 00:30:48,112
I'd love to nail
the bastard.
572
00:30:48,146 --> 00:30:51,274
But with him involved,
one surveillance leak,
we're dead.
573
00:30:51,316 --> 00:30:53,477
We're secure
with the Bureau doing it.
574
00:30:53,518 --> 00:30:56,646
Let the feds have the ink
on municipal corruption.
575
00:30:56,688 --> 00:31:00,351
They may even help me
get a conspiracy to murder
on these bozos.
576
00:31:00,391 --> 00:31:02,825
(sighs)
577
00:31:02,861 --> 00:31:05,227
You never know whose pants
are going to get dropped
578
00:31:05,263 --> 00:31:06,594
in a corruption scandal.
579
00:31:06,631 --> 00:31:08,724
Hey, this started out
as a mugging.
580
00:31:08,766 --> 00:31:11,929
I'll back you,
but don't bring me any names
581
00:31:11,970 --> 00:31:13,767
unless they're
deadâbang guilty.
582
00:31:13,805 --> 00:31:16,273
I want a smoking gun.
I want it in somebody's hand.
583
00:31:16,307 --> 00:31:18,502
Are you
telling me tape?
Tape would be a start.
584
00:31:18,543 --> 00:31:20,807
Can I offer Scalisi
immunity?
585
00:31:20,845 --> 00:31:23,507
Nope, it'll look like
he's naming people
to save himself.
586
00:31:23,548 --> 00:31:26,016
I wouldn't want you to go out
on a limb here, Alfred.
587
00:31:26,050 --> 00:31:28,177
That's not what I get
the big bucks for.
588
00:31:28,219 --> 00:31:29,982
( intercom buzzes )
589
00:31:30,021 --> 00:31:31,318
Yes?
590
00:31:31,356 --> 00:31:33,756
Secretary:
Mr. Stone has
an urgent call.
591
00:31:33,791 --> 00:31:35,452
A lawyer
named Cosmatos... ?
592
00:31:35,493 --> 00:31:37,484
Somebody wants
to make a deal.
593
00:31:39,631 --> 00:31:42,293
Cosmatos and Scalisi
are in your office.
594
00:31:42,333 --> 00:31:44,961
Call Judge Ichazo.
Get warrants for Halsey,
595
00:31:45,003 --> 00:31:46,698
Scalisi, Jefferson's
phone records,
596
00:31:46,738 --> 00:31:48,035
and talk
to Halsey's doctors.
597
00:31:48,072 --> 00:31:49,835
See when we can
interrogate him.
598
00:31:49,874 --> 00:31:51,739
So while we
steadfastly maintain
599
00:31:51,776 --> 00:31:54,677
that the slashing
was done by the youths
seen fleeing the scene,
600
00:31:54,712 --> 00:31:56,942
you never know
whatâ happen
with the jury,
601
00:31:56,981 --> 00:31:59,916
so we would be willing
to negotiate some sort
of an agreement.
602
00:31:59,951 --> 00:32:01,748
Don't do me
any favors.
603
00:32:01,786 --> 00:32:04,050
I'm more than willing
to let the people decide.
604
00:32:04,088 --> 00:32:06,113
Bottom line...
605
00:32:06,157 --> 00:32:07,385
what do you want?
606
00:32:07,425 --> 00:32:09,655
Who paid you
to do Halsey?
607
00:32:09,694 --> 00:32:11,594
Look, you want to talk
city corruption?
608
00:32:11,629 --> 00:32:13,756
No deal
without the name.
609
00:32:15,199 --> 00:32:17,190
Pass.
610
00:32:20,305 --> 00:32:21,966
Stone:
What's up?
611
00:32:22,006 --> 00:32:23,769
Hospital
just calledââ
612
00:32:23,808 --> 00:32:25,799
Charles Halsey died
half an hour ago.
613
00:32:33,518 --> 00:32:34,985
We'll get back
to you.
614
00:32:35,019 --> 00:32:36,816
I haven't even
made an offer.
615
00:32:36,854 --> 00:32:39,049
Trust me,
you wouldn't like
the counter.
616
00:32:41,025 --> 00:32:43,255
I can tell you
things.
617
00:32:43,294 --> 00:32:45,524
Are you going to tell me
about parking tickets?
618
00:32:45,563 --> 00:32:48,794
Yours is already punched.
We know all about Carnegie
Collections.
619
00:32:50,501 --> 00:32:52,025
I got a lot
of names.
620
00:32:52,070 --> 00:32:54,368
I'll see you
in court.
621
00:33:02,981 --> 00:33:05,415
I'm not talking
Gâ4's here.
622
00:33:05,450 --> 00:33:08,351
These are your basic
elected officials
623
00:33:08,386 --> 00:33:10,411
and a Deputy Police
Commander.
624
00:33:12,223 --> 00:33:15,386
Don't have him
make me call Security.
625
00:33:15,426 --> 00:33:17,053
Come on, Tony.
626
00:33:17,095 --> 00:33:21,327
There is no way
that I'm going down
alone behind this.
627
00:33:21,366 --> 00:33:23,732
What do you want?
628
00:33:23,768 --> 00:33:25,360
Want?
I want it all.
You testify.
629
00:33:25,403 --> 00:33:27,371
Give names, dates,
amounts.
630
00:33:27,405 --> 00:33:29,532
You flush
all those trueâblue
public officials.
631
00:33:29,574 --> 00:33:31,371
And that
gets me a walk?
632
00:33:31,409 --> 00:33:34,344
Only way you walk
is you say who gave the order.
633
00:33:40,018 --> 00:33:41,918
You know
I can't do that.
634
00:33:41,953 --> 00:33:45,013
No Masucci,
no free lunch.
635
00:33:45,056 --> 00:33:46,819
But the public officials
could lead to a plea
636
00:33:46,858 --> 00:33:48,849
of let's say...
"assault"?
637
00:33:50,028 --> 00:33:52,223
Let's say,
"voluntary manslaughter."
638
00:33:52,263 --> 00:33:53,594
Say "involuntary."
639
00:33:53,631 --> 00:33:56,600
Then he wears
a wire.
Are you crazy?
640
00:33:56,634 --> 00:33:58,363
They'll know I've been popped.
They'll smell it.
641
00:33:58,403 --> 00:34:00,200
You let me worry
about that.
642
00:34:02,140 --> 00:34:04,700
What kind of sentencing
recommendation?
643
00:34:04,742 --> 00:34:06,733
Depends on what's
on the tape.
644
00:34:09,981 --> 00:34:12,814
âTick-tock,â
gentlemen.
645
00:34:22,226 --> 00:34:24,217
Write it up.
646
00:34:26,230 --> 00:34:27,527
(PA. paging)
647
00:34:27,565 --> 00:34:31,092
The guy had arteries
the diameter of capillaries.
648
00:34:31,135 --> 00:34:33,569
With the traumatic loss
of six units of blood,
there was
649
00:34:33,604 --> 00:34:36,368
a causative connection
between the assault
and the coronary?
650
00:34:36,407 --> 00:34:38,875
Come on, guys,
you don't want
to ask me that.
651
00:34:38,910 --> 00:34:41,310
"Causative
connection"?
Whoa, wait a minute.
652
00:34:41,345 --> 00:34:44,178
Mr. Halsey had a regular
physician, didn't he,
Dr. Goldberg?
653
00:34:44,215 --> 00:34:46,911
Yes, he did.
And he described Halsey
as being in good health?
654
00:34:46,951 --> 00:34:48,851
Uh-huh.
He was alive
a week ago, correct?
655
00:34:48,886 --> 00:34:52,253
As far as I could tell.
Somebody cut his throat
with a straight razorââ
656
00:34:52,290 --> 00:34:55,453
severing an artery
and vocal cords?
And other connective tissue.
657
00:34:55,493 --> 00:34:57,427
And now
Mr. Halsey's dead?
658
00:34:57,462 --> 00:34:59,123
Yes, that's correct.
659
00:34:59,163 --> 00:35:01,358
Thank you, Dr. Goldberg.
660
00:35:05,069 --> 00:35:08,197
It's neat, it's clean.
It's interagency
cooperation.
661
00:35:08,239 --> 00:35:10,332
And we may get
a murderâforâhire
conspiracy
662
00:35:10,374 --> 00:35:12,467
while you get
another nail
for your RICO.
663
00:35:12,510 --> 00:35:15,206
How did I get
so lucky?
664
00:35:15,246 --> 00:35:17,806
A highâlevel cop is involved.
I can't run this through the PD.
665
00:35:17,849 --> 00:35:21,046
The DA know about this?
Has his full
approval.
666
00:35:21,085 --> 00:35:24,111
We go to trial ďŹrst.
667
00:35:24,155 --> 00:35:26,919
You want to win your RICO,
go in with one of five counts
668
00:35:26,958 --> 00:35:28,823
having already been proven
in state court.
669
00:35:31,762 --> 00:35:33,627
(sighs)
670
00:35:33,664 --> 00:35:34,961
What do you need?
671
00:35:34,999 --> 00:35:37,263
An FBI surveillance team.
672
00:35:40,605 --> 00:35:42,698
Get me Jackson
at the Bureau.
673
00:35:42,740 --> 00:35:44,833
Let me see
if I've got this.
674
00:35:44,876 --> 00:35:47,106
Halsey's been called
before the grand jury,
675
00:35:47,145 --> 00:35:50,581
big names figure
he's going to name them,
give the contract to Scalisi.
676
00:35:50,615 --> 00:35:53,049
But Scalisi
screwed up.
The black kids
come along.
677
00:35:53,084 --> 00:35:55,382
And we got lucky,
they came up with
the ID.
678
00:35:55,419 --> 00:35:58,115
So why are you
kicking?
I told you,
It's a weak case.
679
00:35:58,156 --> 00:36:01,956
It's all circumstantial,
and they're no choirboys
as witnesses.
680
00:36:01,993 --> 00:36:03,824
Spare me the waltz,
all right?
681
00:36:03,861 --> 00:36:06,489
This is all
offthe record until
after an indictment.
682
00:36:06,531 --> 00:36:09,432
But I get an exclusive
on the arrest?
683
00:36:09,467 --> 00:36:12,595
I can't promise
you that.
Sure you can.
684
00:36:12,637 --> 00:36:14,832
You get
an exclusive
685
00:36:14,872 --> 00:36:18,740
on the highest ranking
defendant's arrest site...
686
00:36:18,776 --> 00:36:21,404
will you run it?
687
00:36:23,915 --> 00:36:26,850
"Assistant District Attorney
Benjamin Stone stated
688
00:36:26,884 --> 00:36:29,853
that his office did not
feel that Scalisi's
causative role
689
00:36:29,887 --> 00:36:32,879
in Halsey's death
could be proven beyond
a reasonable doubt."
690
00:36:32,924 --> 00:36:35,449
A tad doctrinaire,
but not too bad.
691
00:36:35,493 --> 00:36:37,859
Scalisi comes out
smelling like a rose.
692
00:36:37,895 --> 00:36:40,125
So long as they buy
he held his mud.
693
00:36:40,164 --> 00:36:43,759
Jefferson called me
for a status report.
694
00:36:43,801 --> 00:36:45,769
You told him
about this case?
695
00:36:45,803 --> 00:36:48,863
I had to.
He would have been suspicious
if I didn't talk to him.
696
00:36:48,906 --> 00:36:52,307
I gave him
the "We had to let
Scalisi walk" rap.
697
00:36:52,343 --> 00:36:54,368
How did he
take it?
698
00:36:54,412 --> 00:36:56,380
He was absolutely
furious.
699
00:36:56,414 --> 00:36:58,882
I'm sure it was
an Oscar performance.
700
00:36:58,916 --> 00:37:01,544
You're certain
he's guilty, right?
701
00:37:01,586 --> 00:37:03,850
I'm not certain,
I'm positive!
702
00:37:03,888 --> 00:37:06,857
You take her through
her testimony?
703
00:37:06,891 --> 00:37:09,860
She's still upset
about not having
a Iawyerwith her.
704
00:37:09,894 --> 00:37:12,158
Did you explain to her
how the grand jury worksââ
705
00:37:12,196 --> 00:37:14,027
no lawyer unless
you're a defendantââ
706
00:37:14,065 --> 00:37:16,158
that we need her testimony
to get a wireâtap?
707
00:37:16,200 --> 00:37:18,065
She understands.
She's not happy about it,
but she gets it.
708
00:37:18,102 --> 00:37:19,091
All right.
709
00:37:22,974 --> 00:37:25,636
Stone:
Did ChaďŹes Halsey tell you
of other ofďŹcials
710
00:37:25,676 --> 00:37:27,667
who were involved
in this conspiracy
711
00:37:27,712 --> 00:37:30,044
to award the Traffic
Violation Bureau's
712
00:37:30,081 --> 00:37:32,675
collection contract
to Carnegie Collections?
713
00:37:32,717 --> 00:37:34,844
Hesl i n:
He mentioned
people that I knew
714
00:37:34,885 --> 00:37:37,649
as well as people that
I had never heard of
715
00:37:37,688 --> 00:37:39,918
Which people that
you knew personally?
716
00:37:41,092 --> 00:37:43,686
Anthony Scalisi
and William Jefferson.
717
00:37:43,728 --> 00:37:46,424
And did he tell you
the amount of money involved?
718
00:37:46,464 --> 00:37:49,956
He said
that there was over
a million dollars
719
00:37:50,001 --> 00:37:53,164
available to pay off
city officials per year.
720
00:37:53,204 --> 00:37:54,728
( bell rings )
721
00:37:56,974 --> 00:37:58,236
See who
your client dreVIf?
722
00:37:58,276 --> 00:38:00,141
No, I haven't
seen the calendar.
723
00:38:00,177 --> 00:38:01,405
"Letâ'emâwalk"
Falk.
724
00:38:01,445 --> 00:38:04,346
Hey, I didn't want him to plead.
It was his own decision.
725
00:38:04,382 --> 00:38:06,714
Anyway, he got
the call.
From whom?
726
00:38:06,751 --> 00:38:08,810
Scalisi wants it
to be a surprise.
727
00:38:08,853 --> 00:38:10,582
This isn't
a parlor game, Eddie.
728
00:38:10,621 --> 00:38:13,749
He's worried
somebody might not show up
and you'll think he's lying.
729
00:38:13,791 --> 00:38:15,554
Where's the meet?
730
00:38:15,593 --> 00:38:17,686
"Cafe Bruxelles."
When?
731
00:38:17,728 --> 00:38:20,162
Tomorrow night,
8:00.
732
00:38:20,197 --> 00:38:23,189
Bring him to
the Bureau at 6:00.
733
00:38:24,502 --> 00:38:26,436
You know
who's coming?
734
00:38:26,470 --> 00:38:28,233
Mmâhmm.
735
00:38:29,373 --> 00:38:31,637
Bad?
736
00:38:31,676 --> 00:38:34,611
I hope you don't have
any political aspirations.
737
00:38:37,181 --> 00:38:39,411
Just make sure
he's on time.
738
00:38:39,450 --> 00:38:41,748
( elevator rings )
739
00:38:44,855 --> 00:38:48,018
I'll start with you,
take you through the arrest
of Lewis and Jackson.
740
00:38:48,059 --> 00:38:49,686
Let Max do Scalisi.
741
00:38:49,727 --> 00:38:51,718
How did you let
those two kids plead?
742
00:38:51,762 --> 00:38:54,094
Possession of
stolen property,
six months.
743
00:38:54,131 --> 00:38:57,794
Are you going to be
able to nail Jefferson
for anything worse?
744
00:38:57,835 --> 00:39:00,633
Looks like it.
745
00:39:00,671 --> 00:39:04,004
What goes around,
comes around.
746
00:39:04,041 --> 00:39:06,339
These guys smell
anything hinky,
they'll clam up.
747
00:39:06,377 --> 00:39:09,244
Just be coolââ
you beat the systemââ
told the cops to "shine it on."
748
00:39:09,280 --> 00:39:12,078
McCormack:
You want to tell us
who's coming to this party?
749
00:39:12,116 --> 00:39:15,677
Didn't anybody
tell him the deal?
750
00:39:15,720 --> 00:39:17,381
Whoever comes,
comes.
751
00:39:17,421 --> 00:39:20,219
These guys
are gonna hang themselves,
I ain't ratting on them.
752
00:39:20,257 --> 00:39:22,020
But I'll tell you
who ain't comingââ
753
00:39:22,059 --> 00:39:24,289
Masucci.
There is no way
I give up my boss.
754
00:39:24,328 --> 00:39:25,886
Hold your water,
Tony.
755
00:39:25,930 --> 00:39:28,228
We wouldn't want you
to short yourself out.
756
00:39:28,265 --> 00:39:31,234
Just make sure
one ofthe principles
implicates himself.
757
00:39:31,268 --> 00:39:33,099
Right,
right, right.
758
00:39:39,643 --> 00:39:41,975
Stone:
We 've gone through
their phone records.
759
00:39:42,012 --> 00:39:45,072
Halsey's talking
to Scalisi and Jefferson
10â15 times a week
760
00:39:45,116 --> 00:39:48,517
Conti even called
Jefferson when he was on
a police junket to Tokyo.
761
00:39:48,552 --> 00:39:51,453
Whoa, whoa,
Scalisi and Halsey,
I understand,
762
00:39:51,489 --> 00:39:55,289
But why Jefferson?
He's a Deputy Commander,
and police handle trafficââ
763
00:39:55,326 --> 00:39:59,228
which includes panting.
Agent: Look at thatââ
do you believe these guys?
764
00:39:59,263 --> 00:40:02,357
Damn, limo's got
a New Yom City shield
on the bumper.
765
00:40:11,809 --> 00:40:14,243
Stone:
Bingo.
McCormack:
Who is it?
766
00:40:14,278 --> 00:40:16,508
Borough President Conti's
in front,
767
00:40:16,547 --> 00:40:18,913
that guy in the middle
is Jefferson,
768
00:40:18,949 --> 00:40:21,816
and the one in the blazer
is Councilman Van Damme.
769
00:40:21,852 --> 00:40:24,480
( McCormack whistles )
Ain 't politics
great?
770
00:40:32,129 --> 00:40:35,656
I was was worried it would
come up at the mayor's
press conference.
771
00:40:35,699 --> 00:40:39,760
The commissioner
was asking about it
every day.
772
00:40:39,804 --> 00:40:44,332
This has been
a rough few weeks
on all of us.
773
00:40:44,375 --> 00:40:48,573
The DA's decisionââ
it's extremely gratifying.
774
00:40:48,612 --> 00:40:51,672
I'd like to propose
a toast.
775
00:40:53,350 --> 00:40:55,341
To Tony Scalisi...
Hear, hear.
776
00:40:55,386 --> 00:40:57,547
...who knows how to be
a stand up guy.
777
00:40:57,588 --> 00:41:00,853
It's about as damning
as a Rotary Club meeting.
Shh.
778
00:41:00,891 --> 00:41:04,088
...We know that.
Tony...
779
00:41:05,396 --> 00:41:06,886
we don't want
you to think
780
00:41:06,931 --> 00:41:09,422
we 're not grateful
for even/thing
you 've done.
781
00:41:09,467 --> 00:41:13,198
Scalisi:
Hey, what are friends for?
782
00:41:13,237 --> 00:41:16,934
Maybe we should get you
to take care of that worm,
Lasco, too, eh, Tony?
783
00:41:16,974 --> 00:41:18,737
Yeah, half
the politicians...
Agent: God Almighty!
784
00:41:18,776 --> 00:41:21,267
Robinette:
What's the problem?
It's Greco.
785
00:41:21,312 --> 00:41:23,303
Who is he?
McCormack:
One of Masucci's
mechanics.
786
00:41:23,347 --> 00:41:26,976
He usually eats in the bar.
What do you want to do?
Let it play.
787
00:41:27,017 --> 00:41:30,180
Van Damme:
...Send you to the hospital
to do some additional surgenl.
788
00:41:30,221 --> 00:41:32,553
I thought thejerk
was never going to croak.
789
00:41:32,590 --> 00:41:35,150
Jefferson:
( laughing ) These things
take time.
790
00:41:35,192 --> 00:41:38,389
Conti:
Tony, you know if there's ever
anything you need from usââ
791
00:41:38,429 --> 00:41:41,523
Come on...
He's probably
going in for dinnerââ
792
00:41:41,565 --> 00:41:42,998
Waitl He's going
to incriminate himself!
793
00:41:43,033 --> 00:41:45,501
We want you
to have this.
794
00:41:47,171 --> 00:41:49,571
Wow, sir.
795
00:41:49,607 --> 00:41:52,804
It's nice to know
we're all in the same
boat together.
796
00:41:52,843 --> 00:41:54,572
So who contributed?
797
00:41:54,612 --> 00:41:56,807
( scoffs )
You really want to knoW?
798
00:41:56,847 --> 00:41:58,872
Absolutely.
799
00:41:58,916 --> 00:42:01,077
Me, Jefferson,
800
00:42:01,118 --> 00:42:03,018
Van Damme.
801
00:42:03,053 --> 00:42:05,214
We got it!
Tell the agents
in the restaurant!
802
00:42:05,256 --> 00:42:06,883
They're not
wearing radios.
What?!
803
00:42:06,924 --> 00:42:08,949
You can't hide
the wires.
This guy's not
going to the bar!
804
00:42:08,993 --> 00:42:10,654
Oh, my God!
805
00:42:15,833 --> 00:42:17,494
( car honking )
806
00:42:22,139 --> 00:42:24,039
( screaming )
807
00:42:25,109 --> 00:42:27,373
Freeze, Grecol
( gunfire )
808
00:42:44,261 --> 00:42:46,525
Don't say anything!
Not a word!
809
00:42:46,564 --> 00:42:48,498
Wait for your lawyerââ
810
00:42:58,108 --> 00:43:00,838
Stone:
Ladies and gentlemen
of the junl,
811
00:43:00,878 --> 00:43:03,574
in the coming weeks,
812
00:43:03,614 --> 00:43:05,707
you will hear
how an investigation
813
00:43:05,749 --> 00:43:08,377
of what seemed to be
a common mugging
814
00:43:08,419 --> 00:43:10,944
uncovered a conspiracy
815
00:43:10,988 --> 00:43:14,321
at the highest levels
of city government,
816
00:43:14,358 --> 00:43:17,953
a conspiracy that led
to three violent deaths.
817
00:43:17,995 --> 00:43:20,691
You will learn
how these men--
818
00:43:21,865 --> 00:43:25,096
driven by the basest
kind of greed,
819
00:43:25,135 --> 00:43:27,535
violated their
public trust,
820
00:43:27,571 --> 00:43:30,540
and conspired
with a member of
organized crime
821
00:43:30,574 --> 00:43:33,008
to murder another
public official.
822
00:43:38,115 --> 00:43:39,946
I ask you to weigh
823
00:43:39,984 --> 00:43:42,009
all the evidence
that is presented.
824
00:43:42,052 --> 00:43:44,885
It is my
responsibility
825
00:43:44,922 --> 00:43:47,789
to show you
their crimes.
826
00:43:50,127 --> 00:43:52,288
It is your
responsibility...
827
00:43:56,200 --> 00:43:58,691
to see that
justice is done.
828
00:44:43,414 --> 00:44:45,609
( theme music playing )
