All language subtitles for Criminal Justice .2x04. Episode4 (XviD asd)

Juliet's had her baby.

- A girl, in case you were wondering.
- At the trial,

- you'll be cross examined.
- By Mum?

- What does Jack say he did to you?
- He raped me.

- And he didn't?
- I didn't say no.

- You won't be in the witness box.
- Does it have to be like that?

It doesn't sound like Ella.

- You're 13 years old.
- He's my dad.

Six hundred quid in his pocket.
What does he do with that kind of cash?

- I gave it to him.
- The baby will go into temporary care.

Oh, no, there's no way
we're taking the baby.

That's too much to ask of my family.

- Have you interviewed Juliet's friends?
- She hasn't got any.

- Doesn't that bother you?
- I did it for you.

You know what worries me?
What she'll pull at the trial.

Juliet, the victim.

If you want to keep your baby...

you need to get off on the murder.

I love you.

Do you know what I'm doing?

I'm writing up the defence statement.
Months late, of course.

- What's new?
- It's taking me a very long time.

And do you know why?
Because I've got my jury head on.

And what am I saying
in my jury head?

"Where's the story, Jack?"

How was this woman provoked?
For how long? What abuse?

What has he done to her to cause her
to react with so much violence?

She said she was raped.

But she hasn't told us
anything about it.

She just about says it happened.

Well, compare that to how clear
Jane the grass is

on Juliet's admission
that it never happened.

You're talking about rape as...

Talking about rape and poor Juliet is
off the pace, and why shouldn't she take

all the time in the world
to understand what's happened to her

and then maybe when she's ready...

I'll tell you why,
there's a week to go.

She'll get there. I'll get her there.

We can't wait any more.
What have we got?

We can smear Joe a bit
and suggest that Ella is too young

and too traumatised
to understand everything properly,

but what will a jury say?

"The incredibly bravechild
hasn't got itexactly, precisely right?

"And yeah, maybe Dad
is a bit odd around the edges."

So what, Mum walks? Really?

- I think you're oversimplifying things.
- And you've lost all perspective.

I'm the only one with perspective!

I'd let my personal feelings get
in the way of my professional thinking?

I think you have.

I have to get a jury to see
that Juliet Miller absolutely had to,

absolutely had no choice
but to do what she did.

And at the moment, the people
that I rely on, the defendant

and you as my instructing solicitor,
aren't giving me enough to do that.

You're frightened?

I'm terrified.

Do you know why?

Because I believe that Juliet Miller
is not guilty of murder.

But I know that I can't make a jury
see it, not the way things stand.

An innocent client you can't get off,
it's every barrister's worst nightmare.

Just get me Juliet!

We need a victim,
and she has to be talking.

Where did you get this?

Who is it?

What do you mean?

Who is that woman?

It's me.

That's the mother
I want your baby to have.

You've got a choice now, Juliet.

Talk to me,

help me,
tell me about what Joe did to you,

and we've got a fighting chance
of getting you off on the murder.

How long would I get?

You'd be sentenced
for manslaughter only.

How long would I get?

I've known
a number of cases like yours

where abused women get probation.

Time's up, ladies.

Were you on duty
when Angela Spencer killed herself?

Well, what the hell were you doing?

I knew Angela Spencer. And she was
funny and smart. Did you know that?

And she was damaged.

It was staring you in the face
and you weren't looking.

I hold you responsible for her death.

- Let's go.
- Take your hands off me.

We're going to calm down
and leave right now.

Leave her alone.

You get to know about prisoners
and the ones that might not be guilty.

There aren't many.
You're not one of them.

Morning, evening. Morning, evening.

Before he goes to work,
when he gets home from work.

Matching pairs.

What do you notice about them?

Nothing changes
between morning and evening.

So... He knew what she was doing
without being there.

Maybe the defence
would make something of these.

Do you mean in a good way?

For them?

For the truth.

Let me know what you think, Flo.
About serving the photographs.

What is it about this case?

Before I came here,

I did five years in the Medwaytowns
locking up paedophiles.

You knew what you were doing.
Nice and clear, good and evil.

Lock up the bastards,
protect the children.

Why did you leave?

A woman.

She was protecting her boyfriend.

He was getting her five-year-old
daughter to jack him off.

I looked into her eyes,
and the only thing I saw there was...

defiance.

I slapped her.

I'd never hit anyone before,
in the job or out.

There was a trial
and she was acquitted

because the jury heard about
her mistreatment at the police station

and stopped listening
to the evidence.

Is that why you left?

She came to see me afterwards.

She'd been raped repeatedly
by her father from the age of four.

Oh, God.

No, no. I'd heard it all before.
It wasn't new to me.

This time, I really... heard it.

And that afternoon,
I went down to the river,

and I felt something...

... new.

What was it?

Doubt.

Is that a good thing?

I'm hoping it's a good thing.

- Be careful how you talk to her.
- We've agreed to the questions.

I'm talking about tone.

Just because she's given
a witness statement to the police,

doesn't stop me talking to her
any way that I like.

It's my job to protect
her best interests.

You think I'm going
to bully a 13-year-old girl?

- The police had the same warning?
- That's different.

So, is it a good thing
for a 13-year-old girl

to give evidence live in a witness box
about the violent death of her father?

Who decided
that was in her best interests?

I haven't even told you my name.

It's Jack.

Your mum took anti-depressants.

- Did you know about that?
- Yeah, Dad told me.

How old were you when he told you?

About ten.

Did that make you feel
closer to your dad?

We understood each other.

Is that your phrase?

- What do you mean?
- I dunno. It sounds a bit grown-up.

Is that one
of your father's expressions?

He said I had to be more like the mum.

And were you?

Did you keep secrets from your mum?

She didn't know
I was looking out for her.

Is that another
of your dad's expressions?

Yes. What are you getting at?

You were like a team, the two of you.

Looking after poor Mum.

- He told me what to look out for.
- Such as?

Checking who she was phoning
and stuff like that.

Why?

When someone is depressed
you have to help them.

And to do that you have to know
everything they're doing,

check who they're phoning and why.

Right.

So, what did he want?

He needed to talk to me about these.

What about them?

Dozens of matching pairs.

But these two are the only pair
that's different

and they're taken
on the day of the crime.

OK. Right. This is your logic.

You ready?

She went to see Doctor Rose.

She came back. She had a shower.

Joe knows she had a shower.

Now, where does your logic go?

I'm not talking to you
if you're like this.

So now what, he's jealous?

Is that it?
He doesn't like his wifegoing out?

So what does he do?
Does he kill his wife?

No. Oh, look.

She... kills... him.

Maybe you're not
the right person to ask.

What does that mean?

No, no, no, no. What does that mean?

Sorry.

Why don't you leave her alone?

You must be Kate.

Oh, I wish I could.
But it's not as easy as that.

- Yes, it is.
- What do you mean?

She saw her do it.
What else is there to talk about?

Saw who do what?

Her mum stab her dad.

Is that what Ella told you?

I don't want to go back.

You'd rather be here?

In prison?

My lawyers say
I'll get a minimum of ten years.

I'm going to lose her.

You love your baby?

So, you must do
whatever it takes to keep her.

'Hello. It's Ella. I'm out and about
so I can't take your call.

Please leave a message
and I'll call you back.'

'Hello. It's Ella. I'm out and about
so I can't take your call.

Please leave a message
and I'll call you back.'

Dad!

Dad!

We served the photographs.

- We?
- The CPS. This morning.

On your advice.

Your wife was helpful.

But they're part of
the schedule of unused.

The defence could spotted it and asked
to see them. Why make it easy for them?

Give everything to the jury.
Let them decide.

No. That's not it.

We fight for a conviction,
they fight for an acquittal,

no quarter given, then a jury decides,
which is a completely different thing.

Is it?

Everyone on both sides
has to fight properly.

You go off the rails,
you start going after the truth,

the whole thing's destabilised.

Being certain like this,

nailing suspects.

We are not prosecutors.

So, then what?
We pussyfoot around and then what?

Things are hardly
ever black and white.

The system wants it to be that way,
because they are desperate for answers.

Guilty or not guilty? Good or evil?

The truth is...

grey.

It's all grey.

You have to sign up for the system
or you're lost.

It's a fight or it doesn't work.
Anything else is playing God.

You want that?
You go and live in France.

I made lots of mistakes.

I left water boiling, baths running,

the gas on.

I needed looking after.

He made me feel safe.

There's all the difference in the world
between care and control.

They feel the same.

People looking in from the outside
may mistake one for the other,

but that is the trick,
that's what abusers do.

He had to check all the time that
I was doing what I was supposed to do.

What were you supposed to do?

Take my medication,

washing...

Is that what you think
these photographs were for?

He rang whenever he could.

He even used to text me from court.
I mean, can you imagine if the judge...

You see, that's how much he...

Cared for you? Right.

These were taken

morning and evening
on the day it all happened.

What do these two pictures tell us?

I don't know.

Right.

What did they tell Joe?

That the lid's off, on the bottle.

I didn't put it back on.

I should have.

You should have put the lid
back on the shampoo bottle?

So Joe wouldn't see it? What, is he

- against lids being off?
- No.

Well, what then? Daytime showers?

God forbid he should find out
that you had a shower.

Care or control?

I went to see Ella.

- Why?
- Why do you think?

Ella had to help Joe.

I saw the way she looked at him
and I knew they were...

And what did I do?

What's wrong with me?

Nothing.

You were sexually and
emotionally abused

by a man who had complete control

of your whole existence.

Is that a question?

Yes, it is.

What's the answer?

It's OK to say "Yes".

I promise.

Yes.

You didn't tell me that you were helping
the boss about serving the photographs.

Didn't I?

What's he thinking of? You're a DS.
He's the boss, for God's sake.

- Maybe he's after the truth.
- Why?

I don't know, Chris. How about
as a basis for living your life?

OK. Just remember what she did.

You know,
sometimes we get lost in the detail.

What does it feel like, doing what
she did to another human being?

What would I have to do

to make you stick a knife in me, eh?

What would that actually be, Flo?
Stop bloody eating, can you?

The photographs.

I don't like them.

They scare the hell out of me.

Trussler.
Come here.

Top five in thePremiership
last season?

Manchester United, Liverpool,
Chelsea, Arsenal, Everton.

- How many points did United finish?
- 90.

Have you got a girlfriend?
Do you beat her up?

Non.

No. You don't.

He doesn't.

You see, men are anoraks.

Being an anorak
doesn't make you a monster.

The fingerprints on the 20
from the drug dealer.

- You understand what I'm saying?
- Yes, I do.

This has to be true,
what you're telling me now.

I have to have that from you, 100%.

Joe Miller had nothing to do
with drugs.

The money?

I gave it to him. It came from a hole
in thewall the lunchtime before.

You can't lie to me on this.

You know what I'm saying.

On my Goddaughter's life,
I gave him the 600.

And there's 620 in all.

That's all I know.

Hey, listen. I told you
I'm not the man. Bullshit.

I'm just a younger.

Let's be very crystalclear about this,
shall we?

You're in three months
of surveillance logs.

Drugs squad know
every breath you take.

- .I swear...
- Now, do you know what? I don't care.

What?

You give me the answers I want

I don't care if you're the
man or if you're nothing.

Running man.

Qui ?

- Get off me, man!
- The running man.On the canal.

Don't piss me about.
Is he in this or not?

No.

So why does he have your money
in his trouser pocket?

I sponsored him.

You sponsored him?

For the marathon.

I felt like I knew him.
He used to run past most days.

What's funny, man?

That has to be true.
That just has to be true.

- How much?
- 20.

Good boy.

So what are you going do with me?

Are you OK?

Are you cold?No.

I've been thinking
about your sister.

He'll never see her.

No.

I don't believe in God,

so I can't believe in any
kind of life after death.

But I do believe that
we live on in some way

through our children.

I mean, Joe is in you. Isn't he?

He's part of you

and he'll be there in
your new baby sister, too,

won't he?

- RM?
- Stands for Running Man.

That's Joe.

He's there almost every day.

My God.

- Well done, sir.
- Oh, thanks.

- We shouldn't have done that.
- What?

- Sat on the sofa and watched a film?
- Well, it's a bit happy families.

We are a happy family.
No. Why should I?

For goodness sake, Dom!

Do you know what I think?
He was much too good to be true.

He was a zealot, wasn't he?

He prosecuted people with such passion.
What the hell is that?

And we'd sit around and laugh
at all their rubbish defences.

- Don't you think...
- She might hear you.

I will not be silent
in my own house.

You're like a mouse.

What's the matter with you?
Tiptoe-ing around.

- I'm just trying to be careful.
- They did it to themselves.

I will not have it destroying us.

We didn't kill anyone.

Norma, it's me.

I want to see my sister.

Do you want to hold her?

Is she OK?

Yes.

We've got a lovely room.
It's just the two of us.

You'd really like it.

- Do they check on you?
- What do you mean?

During the night.
Do the prison officers check?

- I don't need that kind of...
- I meant the baby.

- Ella...
- The judge said you were a risk.

Listen to me.

There are reasons for what I did.

There are reasons,

but at the same time

I am very, very sorry.

What reasons?

I miss him so much.

- Just like you do.
- What reasons?

Why did you kill Dad?

I've thought of a name for her.

Jo.

What do you think?

Juliet!

I have to call my solicitor, Jack.
I need help.

Juliet, you need to calm down.

I have to call her. Please?

Roll over, baby.

Roll over for me.

It wasn't my fault.

No.

It was him.

Yes.

What's happened to you
since we last met?

I saw Ella.

She doesn't understand.

I want her to know.

OK.

There are consequences to signing up
provocation as a defence.

Joe isn't here.

We can't put it to him
in the witness box that he was abusive.

So it has to be established

by cross examining other witnesses.

Who?

Those people who knew Joe.

Who?

Ask anything you want.
Don't be intimidated.

We want you to be familiar
with everything so it's not strange

when you're here for the trial.

Horse hair.

Do you want to feel it?

When I was at the Bar,
I had a second hand wig.

Made around 1750.

What do you make of that?

Did you meet my dad?

Yes.

Many times.

Was he good at his job?

You'll understand
if I can't really speak about him.

It wouldn't be fair.

- On who?
- Everyone.

I haven't told Ella
about screens in court.

There's a screen we use so that
when you're in the witness box

only the jury and the lawyers and me

will be able to see you.

I don't want it like that.

I want it as it always is.
I want everyone to know everything.

Do you like fish?

Mum used to bring me here.

When?

Before she was depressed.

Imagine the dandruff
in a 300-year-old wig.

Dad used to put
talcum powder on his.

Do you think they're itchy?

Horse hair must be scratchy.

"Do you like fish?"

Why don't you go and play
on the swings, Ella?

So you can talk about me.

Yes.

I had a child recently
who gave himself a brand new name.

VTM. You know what that stands for?

Nothing. It's an acronym
that doesn't stand for anything.

He thinks he should
have one for himself.

What's his real name?

- Stamford Bridge.
- That's his name?

His big brother is called Wayne.

I don't think
you should speak to her again.

- Difficult visit with Mum.
- It was a great visit.

I was there.
It was not a great visit.

It opened Mum right up.

Well done, Ella.

We're probably after the same thing,
you and me.

What's that?

Mother and daughter together.

Am I right?

I told the CPS about

the drugs surveillance logs.

What did you say?

I told them how important it was that
the defence get disclosure right now.

Right.

Good.

You know how slow they can be.

I don't want us being criticised.

Have a look at this.

RM is Joe Miller.

Right.

Well, you are now in a position to tell
a jury that squeaky clean Joe Miller

takes money from drug dealers
on canal towpaths.

Right. Proving what?
I'm not against slinging mud about.

God knows I've done it and with a jury
at Snaresbrook in some knockabout trial,

you get off if you make a copper look
even a bit muddy, bugger the evidence.

- But this is very different.
- It's very good mud.

It's very good mud but at 10 o'clock
tomorrow morning this trial starts.

And I feel like I'm going in there naked
with a mud pie in each hand.

Blimey!

- Wig on or off?
- Wig on. Nothing else.

"How did it feel to be raped
by your husband?"

"What were you feeling as you were
walking the stairs carrying that knife?"

"What did you leave your daughter
to deal with the blood and horror?"

And the one that really counts.

"Why?"

Where are you going?

Night of the crime.

You've got a chance with this one.
You know that?

Most women who come through here,
not a prayer.

You'll need a bit of luck
with your jury.

Women won't buy it with provocation.

"Why didn't she walk away?
I would have."

You need lots of men
and preferably ones that fancy you.

You look great.

Thank you.

Morning.

There's CCTV footage.

I haven't seen any.

Her street, the hospital,
points in between.

Can you get it for me?

I find the way you lot suspend
personal judgement really moving.

The cab rank rule really moves me.

What other profession is there
where you could take a job

to throw a bucket load of shit
at another member of the same profession

who is very recently deceased
and not blink an eye?

And no-one even criticises you for it.
That's amazing.

Tell your solicitor to keep away
from my God-daughter.

What do you want?

Do your clerks give you
the heavy work

as well as the rapes
and the girly stuff?

I'm sorry?

Put it this way.

Would they have put you up for this
if it had been down to them?

You don't intimidate me.

The answer's no, then.

- You can't look like this.
- Why not?

The jury will read you wrong.

It's not how they expect
a victim to look.

Does Ella have to give evidence?

What do you mean?

I heard from someone in the prison
that sometimes

witness statements
are just read out to the jury.

That's only if we agree
with everything she's saying.

And don't we?

Let's wait and hear what she says
in her evidence in chief.

Then we can decide what to do next.

Or rather, you can.

It will be up to me?

It'll be up to you.

I had a judge once.

He wanted me to sing Jerusalem
and piss in his mouth.

I don't know the words
so I sang the national anthem instead.

He didn't mind. He was fine with it.

Thank you.

Is she all right?

Just remember,
she's not like any other client.

Abused women are different.

- Juliet Miller.
- Nick.

Also known as the bitch who murdered

the second best prosecutor
at the Criminal Bar.

What would you take?
Just out of interest?

Plead to the murder
and I'd take my steel toe caps off

before opening it to the judge.

- Cold feet?
- No.

- It's a fight.
- Looks like it.

I'm so glad.

I'm looking forward to cross examining
Frau chilly knickers.

- When did you get silk?
- Last year.

Youngest ever, weren't you?

9-3. You're in trouble.

All rise.

Where's your junior, Miss Klein?

Here, My Lord.

You're the solicitor.

With my HRA.

This is a murder trial.

The whole point of a junior

is that they're able to step in
and take over should the need arise.

I can assure you, my Lord,
and the jury,

I'm here because I know
what I'm talking about.

About ten minutes, we think.

Is there anyone there?
Just pick up the phone.

Help! He's really bleeding.

I'll be able to help.

Hello? Are you still there?

Mad...

Whatever you do,
don't pull the knife out.

I'm sorry, sorry.
I took it out! I took it out!

It's OK.

I want you to apply firm
and even pressure to the wound.

Help is on its way.

That's fantastic.
You're doing really, really well.

Don't move him.

Just keep that pressure on.

Please, Daddy.

This is the knife that Juliet Miller
used to murder her husband,

the knife that Ella Miller pulled
from her own father's abdomen.

The defendant doesn't deny
she stabbed her husband with it.

She will seek to persuade you
that Joe Miller provoked her.

You will hear evidence
from the prosecution

which will establish that
this defence is a sham,

that this woman,

on this night, murdered this man

with a clear mind

and an evil intent.

Some of the evidence are disturbing
or very distressing,

so I must ask you to please,

remember.

It's the evidence that matters
and not how emotional

it makes any of us feel.

Use your common sense.
And when you do that

there is only one verdict
you can properly return.

Guilty as charged.

I'll call Ella Miller.

Put your hand on the Bible
and read this.

I swear by almighty God

that I will tell the truth,

the whole truth
and nothing but the truth.

It was dark.

I couldn't see very much.
They were making

funny noises.

Can you tell me what sort of noises?

Any actual words, Ella?

Whose?

My dad's.

What did he say?

He said "I love you".

How can you be so sure of this?

I'm sure.

Why?

Because it's the last thing
I ever heard Daddy say.

What did you do next?

I went...

Do you want to stop for a minute?

Right.

I did the wrong thing.

Well, you were incredibly brave
and you did everything you could.

I pulled the knife out.

He would have been alive
if I hadn't. Wouldn't he?

Dad tried to make
everything easy for her.

How?

By making sure she knew
what she had to do every day.

- Was he ever angry with her?
- Never.

Did he shout at her?

- Did he ever hit your mother?
- No.

Did he ever threaten
to hit your mother?

Have you spoken to your mother
since the night of March 9th?

She said she did it for me.

How does that make you feel?

Like I'm dying.

Did he say "I love you"?

Is Ella wrong?

She's not lying.

She thinks she's telling the truth.

Which might be why she says

she saw you stab Joe
when she didn't.

- But she didn't say that.
- She didn't say it in court.

But she told Kate exactly that.

Kate told me.

So, what do... Sorry.

I don't understand.

It's allright. Can we just...

A word inside.

What's the thinking here?

Go after Ella?
The jury are going to love that.

I think our instructions are clear.

Joe didn't say "I love you".
Ella didn't see her mum stab her dad.

Ella is giving the Joe story.
We need to bring it round.

- The jury were close to tears.
- You've got no choice.

You have to give
our version to Ella.

Rules of evidence, Anna.

You do it.

- Do what?
- You cross examine her.

The jury will dislike you, not me.
And that's something.

I'm going to be gentle with her.

Promise?

You stop me

any time you want. OK?

Miss Woolf isn't wearing a wig

because she's a solicitor
with rights of audience.

But, you must not think of her
as being in anyway

inferior to Mr Holloway.

Yes, Miss Woolf?

You loved your dad.

And you looked up to him?

He was quite tall.

You trusted him.

He was my dad.

You've been seeing Gillian.
She's a psychiatrist, isn't she?

She's been asking you to remember

good things about Joe, your father.

What kind of things?

- I don't want to tell you.
- Why not?

They're mine.

Well, we don't need to know
what they are, these good memories.

But the purpose of recalling
happy memories

is to help you get rid of

that horrible picture
you were confronted.

Is it working?

I think so.

So, with Gillian's help,
you're rubbing out the picture

of that night from your memory?

I think we get the point.

Were you frightened of your mum?

- Did she ever shout at you?
- No

- Did she hurt you?
- No.

Did she ever threaten to hurt you?

- Why are you smiling?
- I know what you're doing.

- What am I doing?
- Copying him.

Did you ever see
your mother threaten your father?

- He said she might be violent.
- He said that?

He knew it from his work.

I have to tell him if she was doing
anything she wasn't supposed to do.

Wasn't supposed to do?

You don't know what she was like.

She kept breaking things
and forgetting things.

She was hopeless. She wasn't safe.

- We helped her.
- You and your dad.

Right.

I'm going to ask you
some difficult questions.

I have to do it.
Do you understand?

I think you've been through

a terrible trauma

and what you believe

might be different
from what happened.

You didn't hear "I love you."

He did. I'm not lying.

No-one's suggesting you're lying.

That's what you want to be true.

Did you tell your friend Kate

that you saw your mother
stab your father?

Is that the truth?

Yes. I saw it.

Will you read this?

This is what you told the police

about what happened.

Were you telling them the truth?

Did you tell them
everything you remembered?

Now, is there

any mention in that document

of you seeing your mother
stab your father?

There isn't any, is there?

Which version is it?

They can't both be true.

Leave her.

Just one more thing then I'll stop.

Is there any mention in there of

"I love you"?

He loved her.

I know he did.

You see that's what happens.
That's what happens.

You want it to be true
and you want it

so badly you've written it
in your memory.

Mum.

I'm fine-tuned to spot
the victim of abuse.

Juliet Miller is not
what you think she is.

I believed in you, from the start.

This is the end now.

This is where
you do it for yourself.

You left your
13-year-old daughter alone,

with her grievously wounded father.

What kind of a woman are you?
