1
00:00:02,080 --> 00:00:03,480
Previously on L .A. Law.

2
00:00:04,320 --> 00:00:05,540
I'm not a young gal.

3
00:00:06,400 --> 00:00:07,560
And I know what I want.

4
00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:09,050
You want me.

5
00:00:10,020 --> 00:00:11,070
I do.

6
00:00:11,620 --> 00:00:12,880
I want to be your wife.

7
00:00:15,080 --> 00:00:16,440
I love him very much.

8
00:00:17,140 --> 00:00:18,480
He's on the fence, Ann.

9
00:00:19,260 --> 00:00:24,540
I'd just like for you not to impulsively
push him to the other side.

10
00:00:24,800 --> 00:00:30,100
What do you think about the two of us?
You seem very cute.

11
00:00:30,720 --> 00:00:33,670
Could you see yourself standing at our
wedding ceremony?

12
00:00:34,720 --> 00:00:36,040
I'm sure it would be lovely.

13
00:00:36,280 --> 00:00:37,360
The truth, Anne.

14
00:00:38,180 --> 00:00:41,180
I would sooner dive headfirst into my
own vomit.

15
00:00:42,400 --> 00:00:45,820
Rosalind, I'm very happy being with you.

16
00:00:46,140 --> 00:00:48,660
You... You don't have to preface
anything, Leland.

17
00:00:49,920 --> 00:00:51,060
Your answer is no.

18
00:00:51,061 --> 00:00:57,559
The partnership agreement authorizes me
to make a pro tem designation

19
00:00:57,560 --> 00:01:01,359
unilaterally, and that's what I'm doing.
Douglas, for the next six weeks, you're

20
00:01:01,360 --> 00:01:05,679
in charge. I leave it to you to
establish a fair and democratic process

21
00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:06,820
everyone can live with.

22
00:01:07,020 --> 00:01:11,339
I am coming forward as an officer of the
court to prevent what I believe to be a

23
00:01:11,340 --> 00:01:13,380
gross violation of the judicial process.

24
00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:15,400
Jonathan Rollins is an innocent man.

25
00:01:15,980 --> 00:01:19,050
Nobody's ever gone out on a limb for me
as much as you did today.

26
00:01:19,820 --> 00:01:21,340
And you don't even know me.

27
00:01:22,100 --> 00:01:23,150
It's him.

28
00:01:23,950 --> 00:01:26,720
He makes me do crazy things. That's why
I had to leave him.

29
00:01:29,390 --> 00:01:31,910
As soon as I heard the shooting, I
turned around.

30
00:01:31,911 --> 00:01:34,549
They were shooting at this house on the
corner.

31
00:01:34,550 --> 00:01:35,569
Which house?

32
00:01:35,570 --> 00:01:39,629
It was just a big gray house. I didn't
know who lived there. I just grabbed

33
00:01:39,630 --> 00:01:43,590
Christy, and I told Scott, my six -year
-old, to get down.

34
00:01:45,150 --> 00:01:48,090
Then, as they drove by...

35
00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:58,180
As they drove by, I saw the gun sticking
out the back window.

36
00:01:59,060 --> 00:02:00,460
And I saw it go off.

37
00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:03,100
And, Ms. Carter, what happened then?

38
00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:09,100
It sped away. And when I looked around
for Scott, he was just lying there.

39
00:02:10,580 --> 00:02:11,800
He wasn't moving.

40
00:02:12,540 --> 00:02:17,580
Ms. Carter, do you see in the courtroom
today a man who killed your son?

41
00:02:21,991 --> 00:02:24,089
Ma 'am?

42
00:02:24,090 --> 00:02:26,500
Please identify the person you saw fire
the gun.

43
00:02:29,290 --> 00:02:30,340
I'm not sure.

44
00:02:30,341 --> 00:02:32,709
What do you mean you're not sure?

45
00:02:32,710 --> 00:02:33,760
Just what I said.

46
00:02:34,130 --> 00:02:38,249
It could have been him, but I'm not
sure. You were positive when you picked

47
00:02:38,250 --> 00:02:41,289
out of the lineup. Well, I have my
doubts now. Did the defendant threaten

48
00:02:41,290 --> 00:02:42,490
Move to strike, counsel.

49
00:02:42,810 --> 00:02:46,480
Withdrawn, have you had contact with the
defendant in the last 24 hours?

50
00:02:47,930 --> 00:02:48,980
No.

51
00:02:49,890 --> 00:02:52,780
Your Honor, 10 -minute recess to confer
with the witness.

52
00:02:52,810 --> 00:02:53,860
10 -minute.

53
00:02:55,201 --> 00:03:00,089
I want to know what he threatened you
with. Nothing.

54
00:03:00,090 --> 00:03:02,550
Damn it, Noreen, he killed your son.

55
00:03:02,551 --> 00:03:06,149
And I got three other children to think
about. If we put him away, he can't hurt

56
00:03:06,150 --> 00:03:10,549
you. Oh, come on. I look that stupid to
you? He's the gang's leader, for God's

57
00:03:10,550 --> 00:03:12,150
sake. If he's alive...

58
00:03:12,460 --> 00:03:16,099
He can hurt me, even if he's in jail.
Listen to me. Listen to me. This whole

59
00:03:16,100 --> 00:03:17,840
case turns on your positive ID.

60
00:03:17,841 --> 00:03:21,079
Now, if we don't win this, you can
forget about getting a conviction on the

61
00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:24,479
driver in the next trial. I said I don't
know. He'll walk, and they'll probably

62
00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:27,999
both walk. And this one wearing, he'll
kill again. He's going to kill again,

63
00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:29,320
lady, no matter what you do.

64
00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:32,840
Only thing I'm making sure of, it won't
be another one of my kids.

65
00:03:34,720 --> 00:03:37,730
You lied up there under oath. I can
prosecute you for perjury.

66
00:03:39,050 --> 00:03:42,780
Do you think there's anything you can do
to me that scares me more than him?

67
00:03:44,270 --> 00:03:45,320
Yeah.

68
00:03:46,150 --> 00:03:47,910
You can prosecute.

69
00:03:49,050 --> 00:03:50,510
You just can't protect.

70
00:06:12,271 --> 00:06:14,099
All right.

71
00:06:14,100 --> 00:06:19,019
First up, I note that C .J., who is late
again, has brought us another

72
00:06:19,020 --> 00:06:20,340
significant client again.

73
00:06:20,341 --> 00:06:23,999
German Motor Works is opening up an
American division, and she's evidently

74
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:28,259
snagged. All right, C .J. How does she
do this? Next up, United States versus

75
00:06:28,260 --> 00:06:32,860
Weeks. Yeah, that's mine, and we're
ready for trial. You? Don't start with

76
00:06:32,861 --> 00:06:34,719
Douglas. This is tax litigation, okay?

77
00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:39,559
It's my case. I'm a litigator. I'm
trying it. Get out of my face. This is

78
00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:41,320
old friend Upton Weeks.

79
00:06:42,180 --> 00:06:46,459
He was arrested for tax evasion. Supreme
Court recently held you can't throw a

80
00:06:46,460 --> 00:06:49,519
man in prison for failure to pay his
income tax if he had a good faith belief

81
00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:50,570
that he was exempt.

82
00:06:51,100 --> 00:06:53,660
Next up, Recklaw versus Sinai Hospital.

83
00:06:53,661 --> 00:06:57,639
Yeah, we represent Kate Recklaw suing
for damages because of an unnecessary

84
00:06:57,640 --> 00:07:01,659
hysterectomy. The depositions will be
this week. Anne has been kind enough to

85
00:07:01,660 --> 00:07:04,579
loan me her office. Yes, well, this time
I do have an excuse. I've been stuck in

86
00:07:04,580 --> 00:07:06,000
a bloody lift for 30 minutes.

87
00:07:06,549 --> 00:07:11,009
which brings up an administrative item.
Besides elevator mishaps, the electrical

88
00:07:11,010 --> 00:07:14,269
difficulties in the building have caused
some power surges which have shut down

89
00:07:14,270 --> 00:07:19,009
word processing. I'm sorry. CJ, you've
got the German car company. This is a

90
00:07:19,010 --> 00:07:22,989
fact. Yeah, meeting with the CEO and
four vice presidents on Friday. Looks

91
00:07:22,990 --> 00:07:23,449
a go.

92
00:07:23,450 --> 00:07:26,729
Fantastic. And Leland, you're meeting
with Rosalind Shays over Velnick's lease

93
00:07:26,730 --> 00:07:27,870
with Tammann? Tonight.

94
00:07:28,070 --> 00:07:30,360
Let's keep the negotiations at arm's
length.

95
00:07:31,010 --> 00:07:32,470
Lastly, a reminder.

96
00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:37,559
Next week is scheduled to be my last as
senior partner, unless, Leland, you'd

97
00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:38,439
like me to continue?

98
00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:39,840
No. I'm ready to return.

99
00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:41,250
Oh.

100
00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:42,570
Adjourned.

101
00:07:44,860 --> 00:07:50,540
He took some tests and told me I had a
fibroid tumor in my uterus.

102
00:07:51,140 --> 00:07:52,380
This was a benign tumor?

103
00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:57,179
Yes, but he said that if it grew
rapidly, there could be problems, even a

104
00:07:57,180 --> 00:07:58,230
chance of cancer.

105
00:07:58,231 --> 00:08:00,279
And what course of treatment did he
advise?

106
00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:01,360
A total hysterectomy.

107
00:08:02,110 --> 00:08:05,310
removing both the uterus and the
ovaries, as well as the tumor.

108
00:08:06,210 --> 00:08:11,169
And after the surgery, this is when you
became symptomatic? He put me on a

109
00:08:11,170 --> 00:08:12,850
hormone therapy that made me sick.

110
00:08:13,290 --> 00:08:15,450
I was tired all the time and depressed.

111
00:08:16,210 --> 00:08:17,770
Did you tell Dr. Kyle about this?

112
00:08:17,771 --> 00:08:18,909
Oh, yes.

113
00:08:18,910 --> 00:08:21,150
He implied that it was all in my head.

114
00:08:21,570 --> 00:08:23,410
He put me on antidepressants.

115
00:08:23,890 --> 00:08:24,940
Did it help?

116
00:08:25,410 --> 00:08:26,460
No.

117
00:08:26,650 --> 00:08:28,170
The lethargy just got worse.

118
00:08:29,170 --> 00:08:30,220
I didn't go out.

119
00:08:31,020 --> 00:08:32,880
Some days I wouldn't even get dressed.

120
00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:34,260
Wouldn't bother to eat.

121
00:08:35,179 --> 00:08:39,159
I was this zombie who sat around the
house and cried all the time.

122
00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:41,630
So basically you suffered from
depression.

123
00:08:42,380 --> 00:08:43,430
Not just that.

124
00:08:44,860 --> 00:08:51,759
I wasn't able to feel things the way

125
00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:52,810
I used to.

126
00:08:53,580 --> 00:08:56,920
And not just emotions, though that was
part of it.

127
00:08:59,420 --> 00:09:00,470
But sexual.

128
00:09:02,420 --> 00:09:04,380
What feelings did you lose?

129
00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:09,500
I lost all sensitivity in my nipples.

130
00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:11,570
Nothing.

131
00:09:12,680 --> 00:09:15,060
And I could no longer achieve orgasm.

132
00:09:16,620 --> 00:09:20,140
I was... I was just dead inside.

133
00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:22,380
I wasn't me anymore.

134
00:09:26,020 --> 00:09:27,460
I'm still not me.

135
00:09:28,820 --> 00:09:33,800
And for all this, You blame the doctor
and the hospital.

136
00:09:34,420 --> 00:09:35,880
Oh, yeah, I blame them.

137
00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:42,779
They didn't tell me what it would be
like, what a hysterectomy could do to a

138
00:09:42,780 --> 00:09:43,830
woman.

139
00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:05,779
On April 15, 1990, we received a letter
from Mr. Weeks, mailed in the envelope

140
00:10:05,780 --> 00:10:07,700
provided for his tax returns.

141
00:10:08,080 --> 00:10:09,780
And what did Mr. Weeks' letter say?

142
00:10:10,140 --> 00:10:13,280
That he refused to pay his federal
income taxes.

143
00:10:13,281 --> 00:10:15,779
Well, did he say why he was refusing to
pay?

144
00:10:15,780 --> 00:10:22,520
He wrote, I read his lips, his lips
lied, and I won't pay.

145
00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:26,510
Can you tell the court the amount of the
defendant's outstanding tax bill?

146
00:10:26,680 --> 00:10:29,160
$14 ,957.

147
00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:31,140
Thank you, Mr. Fletcher.

148
00:10:32,671 --> 00:10:38,959
You had heard from Upton weeks before,
hadn't you, Mr. Fletcher?

149
00:10:38,960 --> 00:10:40,010
Many times.

150
00:10:40,011 --> 00:10:43,859
And he made it very clear why he wasn't
going to pay his taxes, didn't he? Oh,

151
00:10:43,860 --> 00:10:47,120
yes. I refer to Defense Exhibits 1
through 17, Your Honor.

152
00:10:47,121 --> 00:10:53,489
Would you read the marked paragraph in
this letter, please? Your Honor, what

153
00:10:53,490 --> 00:10:55,069
does this have to do with anything?

154
00:10:55,070 --> 00:10:59,269
Either he paid his taxes or he didn't.
The Supreme Court of the United States

155
00:10:59,270 --> 00:11:02,589
has made it clear that the reasons why
Mr. Weeks refused to pay are relevant,

156
00:11:02,590 --> 00:11:05,749
Your Honor. This is a test case. The
political ramifications here are

157
00:11:05,750 --> 00:11:06,800
monumental.

158
00:11:06,970 --> 00:11:08,630
I'm going to allow it for now.

159
00:11:10,370 --> 00:11:11,430
Enough is enough.

160
00:11:11,990 --> 00:11:15,470
I refuse to continue funding rank
stupidity.

161
00:11:15,770 --> 00:11:20,409
I won't keep paying my hard -earned
money to politicians who flush it down

162
00:11:20,410 --> 00:11:21,750
,000 toilets.

163
00:11:22,050 --> 00:11:25,870
I won't. I won't. I won't.

164
00:11:26,710 --> 00:11:28,870
Sincerely, Upton Weeks.

165
00:11:32,650 --> 00:11:33,990
Thank you, Mr. Fletcher.

166
00:11:34,510 --> 00:11:35,560
That's all I have.

167
00:11:47,270 --> 00:11:48,770
Lyman Hatcher for the defense.

168
00:11:48,790 --> 00:11:49,840
Ready for trial.

169
00:11:50,310 --> 00:11:55,269
Again. Who's the DA? Your Honor, I am
Zoe Clemens. Your Honor, this case was

170
00:11:55,270 --> 00:11:57,449
just reassigned to me. I'll be seeking a
continuance.

171
00:11:57,450 --> 00:12:01,369
Opposed. This matter's been continued
seven times, Ms. Clemens. It's marked no

172
00:12:01,370 --> 00:12:04,289
further continuance. My apologies to the
court, Your Honor, but I'm currently in

173
00:12:04,290 --> 00:12:06,169
the middle of a murder trial. I don't
care.

174
00:12:06,170 --> 00:12:09,069
It's something different every time. And
meanwhile, the defendant is being

175
00:12:09,070 --> 00:12:12,409
denied his constitutional right to a
speedy trial. Your Honor, if I could

176
00:12:12,410 --> 00:12:13,629
just... It's a simple robbery.

177
00:12:13,630 --> 00:12:16,849
For God's sake, we can do it in a day.
My understanding is there's also an

178
00:12:16,850 --> 00:12:17,889
aggravated assault.

179
00:12:17,890 --> 00:12:21,109
Tomorrow, 2 o 'clock. I'm in with Judge
Armand on a murder case. I can't be

180
00:12:21,110 --> 00:12:25,429
here... Tell him to let you out at 2 o
'clock. I don't like my doc at

181
00:12:25,430 --> 00:12:29,030
any more than he does. If he's got a
problem, have him call me. Next case.

182
00:12:29,290 --> 00:12:30,870
Case number 69866.

183
00:12:31,130 --> 00:12:32,970
Mr. Johansson? Edward Johansson?

184
00:12:33,250 --> 00:12:34,300
That's me.

185
00:12:34,330 --> 00:12:35,380
Oh.

186
00:12:35,770 --> 00:12:36,820
Hi.

187
00:12:36,850 --> 00:12:38,770
I'm Zoe Clemens. I'm handling your case.

188
00:12:38,771 --> 00:12:40,169
What happened to Mr.

189
00:12:40,170 --> 00:12:43,829
Cavallini? Well, he's no longer with the
department. Look, I'm going to put you

190
00:12:43,830 --> 00:12:44,569
up first.

191
00:12:44,570 --> 00:12:47,649
We have your statement in the file, and
this is a copy for you. I want you to go

192
00:12:47,650 --> 00:12:50,789
over it tonight, and if you have any
additions, or if anything's not right, I

193
00:12:50,790 --> 00:12:51,789
want you to let me know.

194
00:12:51,790 --> 00:12:52,840
Okay.

195
00:12:52,841 --> 00:12:56,469
Zoe, the car's waiting up front. All
right, let's you and I meet tomorrow at

196
00:12:56,470 --> 00:12:58,769
'clock right here, and we'll go over
everything.

197
00:12:58,770 --> 00:12:59,970
Okay, we'll see you then.

198
00:13:01,890 --> 00:13:03,899
Simple deal.

199
00:13:03,900 --> 00:13:06,839
Testify that Waring shot the boy we
plead you out as an accessory. I'm not

200
00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:07,819
giving you nothing.

201
00:13:07,820 --> 00:13:09,159
Let me do the talking, Billy.

202
00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:11,459
Hey, she's lost her witness, man. She's
got no case.

203
00:13:11,460 --> 00:13:14,879
My case may be falling apart against
your buddy, Mr. Michaels, but my chances

204
00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:17,360
convicting you just went up. How do you
figure?

205
00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:18,900
If I don't get Waring...

206
00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:23,379
I simply stand up in front of the jury
at your trial and I say, hey, the

207
00:13:23,380 --> 00:13:25,439
that killed Scott Carter came from your
car.

208
00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:28,750
Waring was acquitted, so guess who must
have done it? That's crap.

209
00:13:28,751 --> 00:13:32,099
A jury's going to hold someone
accountable. We all know it. If Waring

210
00:13:32,100 --> 00:13:36,179
it's going to be you. Come on. All you
did was drive the car. Do you really

211
00:13:36,180 --> 00:13:39,559
to risk life imprisonment? I'm going to
be looking for total immunity before I

212
00:13:39,560 --> 00:13:42,739
let him make a squeak. Testify you saw
him shoot the boy. I'll give you use

213
00:13:42,740 --> 00:13:44,480
immunity. I didn't see that.

214
00:13:44,880 --> 00:13:47,000
Billy. I didn't. He was in the back
seat.

215
00:13:47,001 --> 00:13:49,579
He was shooting. I didn't see him hit
the kid.

216
00:13:49,580 --> 00:13:52,599
Testify to that. Time and place. You saw
him stick the gun out. You saw him

217
00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:53,660
fire. Total immunity.

218
00:13:53,980 --> 00:13:55,030
Plus protection.

219
00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:58,630
I don't want him coming after me. He's
not coming out of custody, ever.

220
00:14:02,420 --> 00:14:05,960
So I go completely free, even though I
was driving?

221
00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:07,850
Yeah.

222
00:14:07,900 --> 00:14:08,950
You go free.

223
00:14:11,720 --> 00:14:12,770
Deal.

224
00:14:12,771 --> 00:14:16,039
We'll videotape your statement under
oath this afternoon. You'll be in court

225
00:14:16,040 --> 00:14:18,999
tomorrow morning. Have them there in a
suit and tie. Glad we can work it all

226
00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:20,050
out.

227
00:14:24,640 --> 00:14:28,799
I think it's a mistake to just
capitulate on the tax abatement. Well,

228
00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:31,520
point? Wasting the time of six
attorneys?

229
00:14:31,980 --> 00:14:33,540
Fighting over a moot point?

230
00:14:33,760 --> 00:14:37,759
It's not a moot point, Leland. It's
contingency. It's what every good lawyer

231
00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:38,810
plans for.

232
00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:40,930
Rosalind.

233
00:14:41,040 --> 00:14:43,000
I'm sorry I can't marry you.

234
00:14:43,280 --> 00:14:44,580
This isn't about that.

235
00:14:44,860 --> 00:14:48,920
This is about that. For the past week,
I've been getting nothing but

236
00:14:49,180 --> 00:14:50,340
You know that's true.

237
00:14:50,620 --> 00:14:54,140
I don't resent you, Leland. If anything,
maybe I resent myself.

238
00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:57,050
For staying with a man who doesn't love
you.

239
00:14:57,200 --> 00:14:58,940
I really don't want to talk about it.

240
00:14:59,800 --> 00:15:00,850
Oh,

241
00:15:01,580 --> 00:15:02,760
my God!

242
00:15:17,520 --> 00:15:19,690
We didn't know if there was anybody
inside.

243
00:15:19,691 --> 00:15:22,739
He was just shooting at the house to
give them the message.

244
00:15:22,740 --> 00:15:24,780
So this was basically gang retaliation?

245
00:15:24,781 --> 00:15:28,819
Basically. And after you drove away from
the Gray House, did the defendant,

246
00:15:28,820 --> 00:15:30,640
Richard Waring, fire his gun again?

247
00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:35,219
Yeah. Did you drive by a woman and her
two children about a block from the

248
00:15:35,220 --> 00:15:40,559
house? Yes. And did the defendant stick
his gun out the window and fire in their

249
00:15:40,560 --> 00:15:43,210
direction? I don't know if it was in
their direction.

250
00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:46,280
But he did stick his gun out the window
and fire.

251
00:15:46,900 --> 00:15:51,639
Yes, ma 'am. And, sir, you yourself were
scheduled to go on trial next, after

252
00:15:51,640 --> 00:15:56,219
Mr. Waring, and you've offered up this
testimony in exchange for immunity.

253
00:15:56,220 --> 00:15:56,839
that right?

254
00:15:56,840 --> 00:15:58,400
Yeah, but I'm telling the truth.

255
00:15:58,900 --> 00:16:00,300
Richard fired his gun.

256
00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:01,650
Thank you.

257
00:16:01,980 --> 00:16:03,030
Sir.

258
00:16:12,680 --> 00:16:16,900
Do you know for a fact that my client
shot and killed Scott Carter?

259
00:16:18,860 --> 00:16:19,910
No, sir.

260
00:16:20,160 --> 00:16:22,180
Do you know how Scott Carter was killed?

261
00:16:22,740 --> 00:16:23,790
Yes, sir.

262
00:16:23,800 --> 00:16:24,850
How?

263
00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:28,380
I shot him. What the hell is this?

264
00:16:28,920 --> 00:16:30,180
In my chambers.

265
00:16:30,460 --> 00:16:31,510
Now.

266
00:16:31,780 --> 00:16:32,830
Bailiff.

267
00:16:34,681 --> 00:16:41,769
Don't tell me you didn't know about it.
I didn't. You both participated in a

268
00:16:41,770 --> 00:16:45,570
fraud on the court. His immunity is
revoked. It is like hell.

269
00:16:45,790 --> 00:16:46,840
Quiet.

270
00:16:46,841 --> 00:16:50,659
Now, I want to know exactly what you
instructed your client to do. Nothing. I

271
00:16:50,660 --> 00:16:53,579
told him he had immunity on the murder
no matter what he said as long as he

272
00:16:53,580 --> 00:16:56,899
stuck to his proffer, and he did. It's
too damn perfect. He goes free on

273
00:16:56,900 --> 00:16:59,979
immunity while clearing his buddy. He
had to have help from you two. They

274
00:16:59,980 --> 00:17:03,940
even spoke to us briefly in the holding
cell. Maybe they figured it out then,

275
00:17:04,020 --> 00:17:07,959
but I didn't orchestrate this. I have no
knowledge that Billy Michaels didn't

276
00:17:07,960 --> 00:17:11,519
shoot the boy. Oh, please, Your Honor, I
move for a mistrial on this. I can't

277
00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:15,049
just call a mistrial, Miss Clemens.
We've got double jeopardy problems.

278
00:17:15,050 --> 00:17:16,169
It's for your guy's immunity.

279
00:17:16,170 --> 00:17:17,490
I want to see the agreement.

280
00:17:17,491 --> 00:17:19,649
I also videotaped his statement. I want
to see that.

281
00:17:19,650 --> 00:17:23,290
He said every... Shut up. At a minimum,
you've walked the line here, counsel.

282
00:17:23,550 --> 00:17:27,050
His testimony was a surprise to me, too,
Judge. Get me a transcript.

283
00:17:27,829 --> 00:17:32,529
If he breached his promise even
slightly, he loses immunity and he's

284
00:17:32,530 --> 00:17:34,510
trial. You got it? Got it. Good.

285
00:17:36,270 --> 00:17:38,740
This trial has stayed until I read all
the papers.

286
00:17:38,890 --> 00:17:39,940
That's all.

287
00:17:50,120 --> 00:17:54,599
As most of you no doubt know, last
night, a little after ten o 'clock,

288
00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:58,280
Shays inadvertently stepped into an
empty elevator shaft.

289
00:17:59,120 --> 00:18:04,000
It wasn't known exactly how far she
fell, only that she didn't hit bottom.

290
00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:09,679
And the police, by lowering a camera,
were able to determine that she'd been

291
00:18:09,680 --> 00:18:13,600
ensnared in some cable wires between the
seventh and eighth floors.

292
00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:16,680
We saw no signs of life.

293
00:18:17,340 --> 00:18:18,820
Since this is the...

294
00:18:18,821 --> 00:18:23,119
Express elevator, there's limited access
on the lower floors, and they've not

295
00:18:23,120 --> 00:18:24,260
yet retrieved the body.

296
00:18:24,380 --> 00:18:26,140
They expect to do so by noon.

297
00:18:26,820 --> 00:18:29,530
I will make the funeral arrangements and
let you know.

298
00:18:29,531 --> 00:18:34,019
Jack Sollers is representing Rosalind's
estate. He's already been in touch, and

299
00:18:34,020 --> 00:18:35,940
Douglas will coordinate that.

300
00:18:36,380 --> 00:18:41,140
As for everyone else, the situation with
the elevators is not resolved.

301
00:18:42,780 --> 00:18:45,610
Obviously, your attention before
boarding is advised.

302
00:18:51,310 --> 00:18:56,149
I told her recovery would take about six
weeks, there'd be localized pain, some

303
00:18:56,150 --> 00:18:59,450
loss of stamina, and that she would need
the estrogen therapy.

304
00:18:59,451 --> 00:19:00,849
That's it?

305
00:19:00,850 --> 00:19:02,270
You told her nothing else?

306
00:19:02,470 --> 00:19:06,730
In my experience, those are the medical
consequences of a total hysterectomy,

307
00:19:06,731 --> 00:19:07,819
yes.

308
00:19:07,820 --> 00:19:11,559
Are you aware, doctor, of the studies
that show that fully one -third of all

309
00:19:11,560 --> 00:19:15,859
hysterectomy patients suffer a decreased
sexual response as well as an inability

310
00:19:15,860 --> 00:19:20,359
to have uterine orgasms? The uterus, in
my opinion, is a reproductive organ, not

311
00:19:20,360 --> 00:19:21,410
a sexual organ.

312
00:19:21,411 --> 00:19:24,679
So this was a pretty easy call, wasn't
it? You just chop out her uterus and her

313
00:19:24,680 --> 00:19:28,699
ovaries. When there is a potential
cancer risk, I think that it is

314
00:19:28,700 --> 00:19:32,699
There was a 1 % chance of cancer,
doctor, and you recommended a radical

315
00:19:32,700 --> 00:19:34,400
on a 36 -year -old woman.

316
00:19:34,660 --> 00:19:38,209
Now, if a man had a 1 % chance of
testicular cancer... cancer, would you

317
00:19:38,210 --> 00:19:41,249
castrate him just to be on the safe
side? It's not the same thing.

318
00:19:41,250 --> 00:19:44,020
Here's your medical records here for the
past 12 years.

319
00:19:44,390 --> 00:19:49,069
For all of the thousands of women who
have come to you with fibroids, with

320
00:19:49,070 --> 00:19:53,869
pelvic pain, you have recommended
hysterectomies for 85%. It's no

321
00:19:53,870 --> 00:19:56,160
relevant, despite alternative
treatments.

322
00:19:56,161 --> 00:19:59,359
You've been chopping out uteri for nine
out of ten women. What the hell are you

323
00:19:59,360 --> 00:20:03,030
accusing me of? Everett. I'm accusing
you of running a hysterectomy farm.

324
00:20:03,260 --> 00:20:07,559
These operations, they take 30 to 40
minutes tops. The hospital bills, $15

325
00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:08,610
a pop.

326
00:20:08,611 --> 00:20:12,219
Easier than the alternative methods. I'm
not staying for this. Sit down,

327
00:20:12,220 --> 00:20:13,960
Everett. Let's just get it over with.

328
00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:22,139
Your hospital performs 1 ,500
hysterectomies annually, generating an

329
00:20:22,140 --> 00:20:23,200
$22 million.

330
00:20:23,680 --> 00:20:28,059
You personally perform close to 200 of
these procedures a year, with the

331
00:20:28,060 --> 00:20:33,959
surgeon's fee alone being $3 ,000. That
means you, yourself, make over $600 ,000

332
00:20:33,960 --> 00:20:36,340
a year cutting out women's uteri.

333
00:20:36,341 --> 00:20:39,879
That doesn't mean anything. It means
something to these women. This

334
00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:40,899
over.

335
00:20:40,900 --> 00:20:44,840
I'll be going for costs. You do whatever
you want. This deposition is over.

336
00:20:49,770 --> 00:20:53,669
What made you so mad that you refused to
pay your taxes, Mr. Weeks? I can sum it

337
00:20:53,670 --> 00:20:54,720
up in two words.

338
00:20:54,910 --> 00:20:55,960
George Bush.

339
00:20:55,961 --> 00:20:57,649
George Bush.

340
00:20:57,650 --> 00:20:59,070
Yes. He said, read my lips.

341
00:20:59,410 --> 00:21:02,190
No new taxes. So, I voted for him.

342
00:21:02,790 --> 00:21:06,270
He's a year into office, and what do we
got? New taxes. It's fraud.

343
00:21:06,271 --> 00:21:07,629
Fraud? Fraud.

344
00:21:07,630 --> 00:21:09,470
Listen to what he spends our money on.

345
00:21:09,790 --> 00:21:10,840
Here.

346
00:21:11,370 --> 00:21:12,420
Two hundred.

347
00:21:12,990 --> 00:21:17,110
Two hundred ten thousand dollars to find
out if cow belches...

348
00:21:17,370 --> 00:21:23,329
affects global warming. He did that. $1
.2 million to preserve a sewer as a

349
00:21:23,330 --> 00:21:29,869
historical monument, $40 ,000 to find
out why hockey fans smile, and $1 ,200

350
00:21:29,870 --> 00:21:30,889
a solar toilet.

351
00:21:30,890 --> 00:21:31,940
Solar toilet?

352
00:21:31,941 --> 00:21:33,889
Yeah, it's written down here, right
here.

353
00:21:33,890 --> 00:21:35,070
What are your sources?

354
00:21:35,370 --> 00:21:37,070
The government itself.

355
00:21:37,071 --> 00:21:42,199
General Accounting Office, Office of
Management and Budget, Department of

356
00:21:42,200 --> 00:21:45,079
Defense, Department of Agriculture,
Department of Housing and Urban

357
00:21:45,080 --> 00:21:46,880
Oh, it's all documented, Your Honor.

358
00:21:47,640 --> 00:21:50,940
$144 ,000 to test supply and demand on
pigeons.

359
00:21:51,220 --> 00:21:55,240
Pigeons? $46 ,000 to find out how long
it takes to cook breakfast.

360
00:21:56,000 --> 00:22:02,660
And $45 million to allow Medicare to pay
for cutting our toenails. Your Honor,

361
00:22:02,700 --> 00:22:05,580
this is ridiculous. Of course it's
ridiculous.

362
00:22:06,140 --> 00:22:07,760
We have a ridiculous government.

363
00:22:07,761 --> 00:22:10,439
And I'll be damned if I'm going to pay
for it anymore.

364
00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:12,820
I won't. And neither should any of you.

365
00:22:16,780 --> 00:22:17,860
Hold it, hold it.

366
00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:19,210
Calm down out there.

367
00:22:20,280 --> 00:22:23,680
It was just before eight, and I was
closing up the newsstand.

368
00:22:24,820 --> 00:22:28,699
When suddenly I felt this thump on the
back of my head, and everything went

369
00:22:28,700 --> 00:22:29,639
of brown.

370
00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:30,780
Did you black out?

371
00:22:30,781 --> 00:22:31,799
No, no.

372
00:22:31,800 --> 00:22:32,850
But I went down.

373
00:22:32,851 --> 00:22:35,549
And the next thing I knew, I was getting
kicked.

374
00:22:35,550 --> 00:22:39,029
Did you look up to see who was kicking
you? Yes, I did. It was that man right

375
00:22:39,030 --> 00:22:43,129
there. You're sure? Very sure. I picked
him out at the lineup, and I recognize

376
00:22:43,130 --> 00:22:46,490
him now. What happened after he kicked
you, Mr. Johanson?

377
00:22:46,710 --> 00:22:48,110
He took off my cash bill.

378
00:22:48,111 --> 00:22:49,929
How much cash were you carrying?

379
00:22:49,930 --> 00:22:52,110
Oh, about $200, maybe.

380
00:22:52,610 --> 00:22:54,590
And he took my wedding ring, too.

381
00:22:55,570 --> 00:22:58,170
And he kicked me in the head, and he run
off.

382
00:22:58,171 --> 00:22:59,649
Thank you, sir.

383
00:22:59,650 --> 00:23:00,790
I have nothing further.

384
00:23:00,791 --> 00:23:06,039
Mr. Johansson, before you first looked
at the assailant that night... I got the

385
00:23:06,040 --> 00:23:09,079
transcripts printed. It was struck on
the back of the head, right?

386
00:23:09,080 --> 00:23:11,460
Yes. And it made everything seem brown.

387
00:23:12,120 --> 00:23:16,119
Yes. And when the police arrived... Keep
pressing more on Michael's arm and

388
00:23:16,120 --> 00:23:19,159
kicks it. It's wearing. Let's try to
plead it out. And the only description

389
00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:24,020
gave police at the time was young,
black, over six feet.

390
00:23:24,220 --> 00:23:25,270
Is that right?

391
00:23:25,560 --> 00:23:28,920
Yes. Mr. Pink, it's only 5 '9". Hold.

392
00:23:29,660 --> 00:23:32,130
I was on the ground, so he probably
looked bigger.

393
00:23:32,180 --> 00:23:34,200
So your description was wrong. Yes.

394
00:23:34,980 --> 00:23:40,479
At the lineup, you said you were pretty
sure it was my client, but you weren't

395
00:23:40,480 --> 00:23:45,820
positive, were you? I was under a little
shock then, but I'm positive today.

396
00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:47,290
Thank you, sir.

397
00:23:47,940 --> 00:23:48,990
That's all.

398
00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:53,450
Miss Clemens.

399
00:23:53,451 --> 00:23:57,609
Your Honor, we have one more eyewitness
who we've been unable to locate. Can you

400
00:23:57,610 --> 00:23:59,989
assure the court you will locate this
witness?

401
00:23:59,990 --> 00:24:01,170
No. Then forget it.

402
00:24:01,810 --> 00:24:02,860
No other witnesses?

403
00:24:03,110 --> 00:24:06,990
No. Mr. Hatcher, defense calls no
witnesses, Your Honor.

404
00:24:07,550 --> 00:24:09,290
We're ready for closing arguments.

405
00:24:09,770 --> 00:24:11,330
Same time, same place tomorrow.

406
00:24:11,870 --> 00:24:13,010
Witness may step down.

407
00:24:13,210 --> 00:24:14,260
We're adjourned.

408
00:24:14,261 --> 00:24:17,949
If there's anything to muffle, Michael,
it's that we have to break the immunity

409
00:24:17,950 --> 00:24:19,270
agreement. I don't know how.

410
00:24:19,271 --> 00:24:22,189
These guys are killers, John. They're
going to walk. We have to do whatever we

411
00:24:22,190 --> 00:24:23,179
can.

412
00:24:23,180 --> 00:24:27,280
The man broke my jaw, three of my ribs,
knocked out two teeth.

413
00:24:28,060 --> 00:24:30,230
How come you didn't ask me about that
part?

414
00:24:30,840 --> 00:24:34,459
We got our case in, Mr. Johanson. It
went very well. Did you know about that

415
00:24:34,460 --> 00:24:35,510
part?

416
00:24:57,610 --> 00:25:00,390
The birth of this nation was a tax
protest.

417
00:25:01,070 --> 00:25:05,870
Americans tossed their tea into Boston
Harbor to protest an unfair tax on it,

418
00:25:05,910 --> 00:25:10,409
and pretty soon there was a shot heard
around the world. From the Revolution to

419
00:25:10,410 --> 00:25:15,189
the Pentagon Papers, true patriots have
never hesitated to tell this country

420
00:25:15,190 --> 00:25:16,370
what was wrong with it.

421
00:25:17,310 --> 00:25:22,949
When he refused to pay his taxes, when
he balked at shelling out for more solar

422
00:25:22,950 --> 00:25:24,110
toilets and...

423
00:25:25,330 --> 00:25:27,570
Upton Weeks was living up to his
heritage.

424
00:25:27,770 --> 00:25:34,149
When he stood up and said, no, I won't
be soaked anymore for any more useless

425
00:25:34,150 --> 00:25:39,029
Hubble telescopes and rockets that
explode in our faces, Upton Weeks was

426
00:25:39,030 --> 00:25:40,009
true patriot.

427
00:25:40,010 --> 00:25:45,529
He was saying that a government of the
people, by the people, and for the

428
00:25:45,530 --> 00:25:50,809
should not be allowed to rob the people.
And so when he saw his taxes so

429
00:25:50,810 --> 00:25:53,830
unfairly raised, Upton Weeks stood up.

430
00:25:54,860 --> 00:25:55,910
As an American.

431
00:25:56,380 --> 00:25:58,040
As a lover of democracy.

432
00:25:59,520 --> 00:26:03,340
And he said, I won't.

433
00:26:04,220 --> 00:26:05,440
I won't.

434
00:26:06,240 --> 00:26:07,360
Read my lips.

435
00:26:09,320 --> 00:26:10,370
I won't.

436
00:26:18,580 --> 00:26:20,380
Upton Week is a criminal.

437
00:26:21,040 --> 00:26:25,600
In direct violation of federal law, he
refused to pay his taxes.

438
00:26:25,601 --> 00:26:29,399
Now, ladies and gentlemen, we all hate
paying taxes. We all hate that some of

439
00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:30,539
our money goes to waste.

440
00:26:30,540 --> 00:26:34,499
But if we were all to be like Mr. Weeks
and refuse to pay, we'd have no

441
00:26:34,500 --> 00:26:35,550
government.

442
00:26:36,360 --> 00:26:41,620
We'd have no army, no navy, no Social
Security, no Medicare.

443
00:26:41,621 --> 00:26:45,519
Now, if you think it's patriotic to
refuse to pay for your fair share of

444
00:26:45,520 --> 00:26:49,020
things, then by all means acquit Upton
Weeks. But if you believe...

445
00:26:49,709 --> 00:26:54,749
like our founding fathers, that
government is the responsibility of the

446
00:26:54,750 --> 00:26:59,749
governed, and that includes paying for
it, then you will find Upton Weeks

447
00:26:59,750 --> 00:27:00,800
guilty.

448
00:27:01,310 --> 00:27:02,360
Thank you.

449
00:27:05,150 --> 00:27:07,500
We've got some serious problems here,
people.

450
00:27:07,550 --> 00:27:09,070
And most of them are yours.

451
00:27:09,330 --> 00:27:11,070
On wearing, we are prepared to deal.

452
00:27:11,130 --> 00:27:14,849
Funny thing. Don't give me an excuse to
jump on you, Mr. Klein. As it is, I'm

453
00:27:14,850 --> 00:27:16,470
just this close to locking you up.

454
00:27:16,471 --> 00:27:19,219
On what grounds? On the grounds that I
don't like you.

455
00:27:19,220 --> 00:27:21,879
Will dismiss on murder if he cops to
assault with deadly plus reckless

456
00:27:21,880 --> 00:27:25,860
endangerment? Rejected. I've got a
laundry list of felonies, including

457
00:27:25,861 --> 00:27:29,279
Which you can't make. Yeah, but I can
file, and since your boy won't make

458
00:27:29,280 --> 00:27:30,399
that's a two -year sentence.

459
00:27:30,400 --> 00:27:32,219
Assuming he doesn't get kicked right
now.

460
00:27:32,220 --> 00:27:33,270
Safe assumption.

461
00:27:33,340 --> 00:27:35,360
We'll agree to two out in one on parole.

462
00:27:36,580 --> 00:27:38,320
That's a year for a murder, Mr. Klein.

463
00:27:40,960 --> 00:27:42,010
Okay, done.

464
00:27:42,011 --> 00:27:45,699
Now, for Michaels, the people would ask
for a revocation of the immunity. No

465
00:27:45,700 --> 00:27:48,579
way. He clearly contravened his
agreement with that surprise confession.

466
00:27:48,580 --> 00:27:51,859
I'd like to agree with you, Miss
Clemens, but he's testified exactly as

467
00:27:51,860 --> 00:27:54,699
he would when you made the deal. Well, I
obviously didn't know he would claim to

468
00:27:54,700 --> 00:27:55,439
be the shooter.

469
00:27:55,440 --> 00:27:58,039
That's because you didn't ask him all
the right questions. Your Honor, he

470
00:27:58,040 --> 00:28:01,259
for God's sake. He got up on that... I
understand that perfectly, but use

471
00:28:01,260 --> 00:28:02,760
immunity is use immunity.

472
00:28:02,761 --> 00:28:06,779
Anything he said can't be used against
him. Now, even if I tried to stick him,

473
00:28:06,780 --> 00:28:08,280
I'd only get spanked on appeal.

474
00:28:08,281 --> 00:28:12,189
And with a duck, it's so jammed... He
murdered a six -year -old child.

475
00:28:12,190 --> 00:28:15,529
I am not going to throw away hundreds of
thousands of taxpayer dollars on a case

476
00:28:15,530 --> 00:28:16,909
where we already know the result.

477
00:28:16,910 --> 00:28:18,570
Billy Michaels has use immunity.

478
00:28:18,571 --> 00:28:20,769
Now, that's all the business for today.

479
00:28:20,770 --> 00:28:21,910
Everybody is free to go.

480
00:28:28,730 --> 00:28:29,780
Hey,

481
00:28:31,341 --> 00:28:37,529
I said I have no comment. You keep
bothering me, I'll bring you up on

482
00:28:37,530 --> 00:28:38,580
harassment. Get lost.

483
00:28:42,840 --> 00:28:43,890
Miss Clemens.

484
00:28:48,260 --> 00:28:51,160
I found somebody that knows Maxine
Raleigh.

485
00:28:51,860 --> 00:28:55,779
Who? She's the eyewitness who saw me get
mugged. This guy says she lives

486
00:28:55,780 --> 00:28:58,209
someplace over in Torrance. Do you have
an address?

487
00:28:58,210 --> 00:29:01,149
No, but if we could send out a few men
over there... Mr. Johanson, the evidence

488
00:29:01,150 --> 00:29:04,469
on your case is closed. The judge won't
reopen without a guarantee that she can

489
00:29:04,470 --> 00:29:07,129
be found. But if you could send a few
policemen over there... I don't have the

490
00:29:07,130 --> 00:29:10,429
manpower to do that. Now, we've got
closing arguments in about 12 minutes,

491
00:29:10,430 --> 00:29:14,550
have to go figure out what I'm... I have
to go work on my summation.

492
00:29:15,110 --> 00:29:16,970
I'll meet you in the courtroom, okay?

493
00:29:17,710 --> 00:29:18,760
Yeah.

494
00:29:27,451 --> 00:29:30,529
Noreen, what are you doing here?

495
00:29:30,530 --> 00:29:31,580
I've been thinking.

496
00:29:32,110 --> 00:29:36,930
Maybe if you got us into a witness
protection or something, I'd identify

497
00:29:38,250 --> 00:29:39,330
It's too late for that.

498
00:29:39,490 --> 00:29:40,610
I just cut a deal.

499
00:29:41,570 --> 00:29:43,110
He gets a one -year sentence.

500
00:29:43,450 --> 00:29:47,269
You can't undo it? It wouldn't matter.
The driver took the stand and said he

501
00:29:47,270 --> 00:29:51,410
shot your son. It was Waring, not the
driver. I saw who it was.

502
00:29:51,411 --> 00:29:52,489
It doesn't matter.

503
00:29:52,490 --> 00:29:56,050
We could never get a conviction now,
don't you see? With Michael's

504
00:29:57,930 --> 00:29:58,980
Noreen, it's over.

505
00:29:59,510 --> 00:30:01,930
There is nothing either you or I can do
now.

506
00:30:03,010 --> 00:30:04,060
It's done.

507
00:30:05,650 --> 00:30:08,530
I made a big mistake, didn't I?

508
00:30:12,050 --> 00:30:13,100
I'm sorry.

509
00:30:15,630 --> 00:30:16,680
So am I.

510
00:30:23,570 --> 00:30:25,350
350. Full settlement.

511
00:30:26,449 --> 00:30:29,099
Payable over the next year, schedule of
12 payments.

512
00:30:29,590 --> 00:30:30,850
With one other condition.

513
00:30:31,390 --> 00:30:32,990
All terms confidential.

514
00:30:32,991 --> 00:30:39,129
I'll have to consult with my clients
about that. What's the problem here,

515
00:30:39,130 --> 00:30:41,970
Counselor? There's a statutory cap of
$250 ,000.

516
00:30:42,510 --> 00:30:46,709
We're offering you $100 ,000 above what
you could get in court as a matter of

517
00:30:46,710 --> 00:30:49,050
law. If you win... We just need to think
it over.

518
00:30:49,550 --> 00:30:50,600
That's all.

519
00:30:50,970 --> 00:30:54,160
I'll give you a call as soon as we've
had a chance to talk about it.

520
00:31:00,910 --> 00:31:01,960
About $350.

521
00:31:02,230 --> 00:31:04,400
You said the most we could ever get was
$250.

522
00:31:04,401 --> 00:31:05,749
It's a bribe.

523
00:31:05,750 --> 00:31:10,209
What? They want a gag order to stop us
from talking about the case or reveal

524
00:31:10,210 --> 00:31:12,349
information that might have been brought
up during discovery.

525
00:31:12,350 --> 00:31:13,400
What does that mean?

526
00:31:13,401 --> 00:31:16,109
That we can't ever tell about what
they're doing over there?

527
00:31:16,110 --> 00:31:18,789
That's right. See, they're afraid a
trial will expose their $20 million

528
00:31:18,790 --> 00:31:19,930
hysterectomy factory.

529
00:31:19,931 --> 00:31:22,429
So what do you think? We should turn
down the offer?

530
00:31:22,430 --> 00:31:24,350
That hospital is guilty of mutilation.

531
00:31:24,351 --> 00:31:28,219
And if we don't speak out, what happened
to Kate's gonna keep happening to

532
00:31:28,220 --> 00:31:30,870
thousands of other women. Mr. Puentes,
we got two kids.

533
00:31:31,420 --> 00:31:35,840
Kate's been too tired, too depressed to
take care of. I make $35 ,000 a year.

534
00:31:35,841 --> 00:31:39,659
We've gone thousands of dollars into
debt for daycare, and you're asking us

535
00:31:39,660 --> 00:31:43,799
turn down $100 ,000 more than we could
ever get at a trial? Honey, maybe he's

536
00:31:43,800 --> 00:31:44,850
right.

537
00:31:45,100 --> 00:31:47,870
I can't put any other women through what
I went through.

538
00:31:48,100 --> 00:31:49,150
And what about you?

539
00:31:49,800 --> 00:31:53,260
This money can never replace what those
bastards took from you.

540
00:31:53,690 --> 00:31:55,370
But we sued them.

541
00:31:55,690 --> 00:31:57,230
We're in this for the money.

542
00:31:57,750 --> 00:31:59,190
How could we not take it?

543
00:32:02,070 --> 00:32:05,850
Accepting their offer, in my opinion, is
morally wrong.

544
00:32:06,470 --> 00:32:07,520
I'm sorry.

545
00:32:09,590 --> 00:32:12,250
We'll think about it and let you know.

546
00:32:14,990 --> 00:32:16,510
$600 ,000?

547
00:32:17,050 --> 00:32:19,050
Death by elevator shaft pays big.

548
00:32:19,330 --> 00:32:20,380
Come on, Jack.

549
00:32:20,830 --> 00:32:24,749
Tough way to go, Leland, plunging
downward into darkness, suddenly

550
00:32:24,750 --> 00:32:26,850
by a cable wire. I don't appreciate
that.

551
00:32:27,050 --> 00:32:29,030
We're not responsible for the elevator.

552
00:32:29,031 --> 00:32:32,349
But you knew about the malfunction. She
was invited to the property, and you

553
00:32:32,350 --> 00:32:35,750
didn't warn her. Come on, boys, there's
a monster case here.

554
00:32:36,250 --> 00:32:37,300
It figures.

555
00:32:37,301 --> 00:32:41,089
When Rosalind goes down, she'd find a
way to take you down with her. For God's

556
00:32:41,090 --> 00:32:45,089
sakes, the body's not even cold yet.
Please, if anything, death probably

557
00:32:45,090 --> 00:32:45,909
her up a few degrees.

558
00:32:45,910 --> 00:32:48,689
One more crack like that, and I'll
bounce you right out of here.

559
00:32:48,690 --> 00:32:49,739
Jack.

560
00:32:49,740 --> 00:32:53,140
Leland and Roz had a social relationship
lately.

561
00:32:57,220 --> 00:33:01,300
Oh, I'm sorry, Leland. I had no idea. I
just... Really?

562
00:33:05,080 --> 00:33:06,520
Let's just address this case.

563
00:33:07,060 --> 00:33:08,340
Okay, here's the deal.

564
00:33:08,341 --> 00:33:12,579
I'll be chasing the landlord mainly,
plus the elevator people, but let's face

565
00:33:12,580 --> 00:33:16,280
it, you guys are liable too. Make me an
offer. I'll be as reasonable as I can.

566
00:33:16,860 --> 00:33:18,260
We'll think it over, Jack.

567
00:33:18,620 --> 00:33:19,670
Great.

568
00:33:21,889 --> 00:33:24,430
Oh, if you can, think it over fast.

569
00:33:26,250 --> 00:33:27,330
I'm going to settle it.

570
00:33:28,650 --> 00:33:30,550
We have very little exposure here.

571
00:33:30,750 --> 00:33:34,360
Even in... Leland, if I can bring it in
under five, it's within our coverage.

572
00:33:34,361 --> 00:33:37,589
And I don't want the firm to act through
this. I don't want you put through it.

573
00:33:37,590 --> 00:33:42,230
Oh, don't worry about me. Hey, let me
take care of it. Will you please?

574
00:33:44,110 --> 00:33:50,410
You know, the last thing I said to her
before she...

575
00:33:52,200 --> 00:33:54,400
I reminded her that I didn't love her.

576
00:33:57,680 --> 00:34:00,040
She knew you cared about her, Leland.

577
00:34:00,900 --> 00:34:01,950
Yeah.

578
00:34:03,640 --> 00:34:04,690
That's all she knew.

579
00:34:05,920 --> 00:34:06,970
That I care.

580
00:34:08,280 --> 00:34:09,330
No witnesses.

581
00:34:09,679 --> 00:34:13,698
Except the victim himself who admitted
he was not woozy before seeing the

582
00:34:13,699 --> 00:34:14,749
assailant's face.

583
00:34:14,760 --> 00:34:20,459
He identified the suspect as being over
six feet. My client is only 5 '9". He

584
00:34:20,460 --> 00:34:23,000
admitted... He wasn't positive at the
lineup.

585
00:34:23,219 --> 00:34:24,280
There's no evidence.

586
00:34:24,540 --> 00:34:29,080
Except the tentative ID of a dizzy
victim in the middle of a mental

587
00:34:29,100 --> 00:34:34,059
Ladies and gentlemen, there can be no
suggestion that the prosecution has

588
00:34:34,060 --> 00:34:35,380
cleared reasonable doubt.

589
00:34:35,719 --> 00:34:38,860
This has already taken up too much of
your time.

590
00:34:39,239 --> 00:34:40,289
Let's go home.

591
00:34:47,380 --> 00:34:50,760
Under the Constitution, Kyle Pinkett
gets represented here.

592
00:34:51,239 --> 00:34:52,659
Edward Johansson does not.

593
00:34:54,980 --> 00:34:57,400
I would love to tell you about this
man's family.

594
00:34:57,900 --> 00:35:02,580
Get you to see him for the human being
that he is and feel his pain.

595
00:35:03,500 --> 00:35:05,430
But I don't even know if he has a
family.

596
00:35:06,080 --> 00:35:10,679
And I don't have time to care. I have
murder cases, kidnapping, rape. He just

597
00:35:10,680 --> 00:35:11,800
got beat up and robbed.

598
00:35:12,510 --> 00:35:16,570
I have a capital case, for God's sake.
Two killers. They killed a child.

599
00:35:16,930 --> 00:35:22,049
One gets a year in prison. The other
goes free. Miss Clemens, I direct you to

600
00:35:22,050 --> 00:35:23,830
stick to the facts of this case.

601
00:35:25,170 --> 00:35:26,220
The facts.

602
00:35:27,690 --> 00:35:30,390
He gave you a positive I .D. on the
stand.

603
00:35:31,390 --> 00:35:34,670
He told you under oath, that's the guy.

604
00:35:35,110 --> 00:35:36,160
That's... The guy.

605
00:35:36,260 --> 00:35:40,050
Picked him out of a lineup, identified
him in this room, and his testimony,

606
00:35:40,200 --> 00:35:43,020
ladies and gentlemen, is uncontroverted,
unopposed.

607
00:35:43,880 --> 00:35:47,979
Nobody put up here to dispute the fact
that that's the guy. Nothing to dispute

608
00:35:47,980 --> 00:35:49,680
the facts that he put in evidence.

609
00:35:49,960 --> 00:35:56,319
So the only way for you to not convict
here is to just look at Edward Johanson

610
00:35:56,320 --> 00:35:58,280
and dismiss him. Dismiss him.

611
00:36:00,280 --> 00:36:03,820
The thing is, the only hope...

612
00:36:04,170 --> 00:36:09,629
for Edward Johansson and victims like
him, is that people living outside the

613
00:36:09,630 --> 00:36:14,750
oppression of the system, people like
you, can find it in your hearts to care.

614
00:36:15,570 --> 00:36:22,310
Because the people living inside it,
people like me, we haven't got the time.

615
00:36:24,990 --> 00:36:26,310
And I'm sorry for that.

616
00:37:05,320 --> 00:37:07,860
Mr. Foreman, you have a verdict. Yes,
Your Honor.

617
00:37:08,280 --> 00:37:09,330
How do you find?

618
00:37:09,331 --> 00:37:13,779
In the matter of the people versus Kyle
Pinkett, count one, first degree

619
00:37:13,780 --> 00:37:15,980
assault, we find the defendant guilty.

620
00:37:16,320 --> 00:37:19,660
On count two, robbery, we find the
defendant guilty.

621
00:37:20,000 --> 00:37:21,050
Thank you. We're done.

622
00:37:21,740 --> 00:37:25,380
Sentencing is on the 29th at 9 a .m.,
same bail.

623
00:37:25,780 --> 00:37:26,830
We're adjourned.

624
00:37:39,530 --> 00:37:43,010
Maureen Carter just shot and killed
Richard Waring.

625
00:37:43,011 --> 00:37:46,329
What? They were transferring him to the
county. She was standing outside the

626
00:37:46,330 --> 00:37:48,710
courthouse. She just shot him dead.

627
00:38:22,250 --> 00:38:29,250
You want to see me, Dad?

628
00:38:29,310 --> 00:38:30,360
I certainly do.

629
00:38:31,870 --> 00:38:34,210
Ed Recklaw called me this morning.

630
00:38:34,750 --> 00:38:39,369
Both he and his wife wanted to accept
the hospital's offer, but Kate Recklaw

631
00:38:39,370 --> 00:38:41,310
upset about the prospect of facing you.

632
00:38:41,810 --> 00:38:46,669
I accepted the defendant's offer. You
did what? It was $100 ,000 above what

633
00:38:46,670 --> 00:38:49,929
could get at trial. How could you even
consider advising them against it?

634
00:38:49,930 --> 00:38:54,389
Because it contained a gag order,
Douglas, which means that that hospital

635
00:38:54,390 --> 00:38:57,509
continue to perform these unnecessary
hysterectomies on these unsuspecting

636
00:38:57,510 --> 00:39:01,250
women. We don't represent those women.
We represent the Recklaws.

637
00:39:01,690 --> 00:39:05,809
and counseling them to reject that offer
was not only grossly irresponsible, it

638
00:39:05,810 --> 00:39:09,729
was malpractice. Well, I'm sorry, but I
just take my... What you did was

639
00:39:09,730 --> 00:39:13,520
unethical, and you damn well know it.
Well, you know something? I don't care.

640
00:39:13,521 --> 00:39:17,289
I'm sick and tired of following the
lawyer's ethical guidelines. From now

641
00:39:17,290 --> 00:39:20,849
I'm going to follow my own ethics, not
the damn ABAs. And I might just go out

642
00:39:20,850 --> 00:39:23,929
there and make a public statement about
that hospital. If you do that, you'll

643
00:39:23,930 --> 00:39:27,449
vitiate the settlement and make no
mistake. I'll fire you before you finish

644
00:39:27,450 --> 00:39:30,509
first sentence. You don't have the
authority to fire me. I do. I do.

645
00:39:30,510 --> 00:39:34,069
If a lawyer willfully disregards the
professional rules of responsibility,

646
00:39:34,070 --> 00:39:38,170
senior partner can discharge that lawyer
without a vote, and I'll do it, Victor.

647
00:39:38,310 --> 00:39:42,009
If it's the last thing I do as senior
partner, I'll do it. You indulged your

648
00:39:42,010 --> 00:39:45,680
conscience at the expense of this firm
and at the expense of your clients.

649
00:39:45,830 --> 00:39:48,180
You better hope the state bar doesn't
find out.

650
00:39:58,141 --> 00:40:05,589
The matter of the United States versus
Weeks, have you reached a verdict?

651
00:40:05,590 --> 00:40:06,640
Yes, Your Honor.

652
00:40:07,810 --> 00:40:11,470
Though we all feel a bond with Mr.
Weeks, we find him guilty.

653
00:40:12,090 --> 00:40:13,310
Heroic, but guilty.

654
00:40:13,311 --> 00:40:16,769
Thank you. Thank you very much. Ladies
and gentlemen, you're dismissed.

655
00:40:16,770 --> 00:40:20,669
A pronounced sentence in this matter on
Monday morning. Until then, court is

656
00:40:20,670 --> 00:40:22,510
adjourned. We're lost again.

657
00:40:23,440 --> 00:40:25,120
I want you to appeal. Supreme Court.

658
00:40:25,360 --> 00:40:28,280
You need a procedural error. There was a
procedural error.

659
00:40:28,720 --> 00:40:31,420
Deceit. Terrorism. George Bush. Oh, God.

660
00:40:59,370 --> 00:41:00,420
I couldn't.

661
00:41:01,230 --> 00:41:02,530
Just couldn't walk away.

662
00:41:04,350 --> 00:41:06,550
I wish I could get that other one, too.

663
00:41:09,530 --> 00:41:11,390
You say you cared about your children.

664
00:41:12,430 --> 00:41:13,810
What now for them, Noreen?

665
00:41:14,290 --> 00:41:17,770
What kind of mother could I have been,
living with me?

666
00:41:19,810 --> 00:41:21,920
They'd have just grown up with all my
hate.

667
00:41:23,270 --> 00:41:26,510
This way, I'd live with myself.

668
00:41:27,090 --> 00:41:28,370
You'd be prosecuted.

669
00:41:28,860 --> 00:41:29,910
You know that.

670
00:41:30,120 --> 00:41:34,260
But that other one, Michaels, he don't
get prosecuted, does he?

671
00:41:35,860 --> 00:41:36,910
No.

672
00:41:37,300 --> 00:41:39,780
Can you tell me how that can be?

673
00:41:40,740 --> 00:41:44,320
He goes free, and I go to jail.

674
00:41:46,080 --> 00:41:47,600
You got an answer for that?

675
00:41:59,530 --> 00:42:03,749
Do you know that the risk of breast
cancer and heart disease is triple that

676
00:42:03,750 --> 00:42:06,040
hysterectomy patients than of other
women?

677
00:42:06,050 --> 00:42:07,100
I know.

678
00:42:07,210 --> 00:42:09,610
I also know you're obsessing just a
little.

679
00:42:09,611 --> 00:42:14,069
Grace, this is not just this particular
hospital. This is going on everywhere.

680
00:42:14,070 --> 00:42:17,629
Hysterectomy is the most over -performed
operation in the country. How can I

681
00:42:17,630 --> 00:42:18,770
just let that go?

682
00:42:19,310 --> 00:42:20,360
Victor,

683
00:42:20,361 --> 00:42:22,749
you've been a lawyer for what, for nine
years?

684
00:42:22,750 --> 00:42:24,750
I mean, you know all of this.

685
00:42:25,470 --> 00:42:28,130
You've been down this road before. It's
nothing new.

686
00:42:30,790 --> 00:42:31,850
Rub me right there.

687
00:42:33,050 --> 00:42:39,549
I'm just... I don't know, I guess I
just... I'm letting this one get under

688
00:42:39,550 --> 00:42:41,150
skin a little bit too much. Sorry.

689
00:42:44,670 --> 00:42:45,810
Because I'm pregnant?

690
00:42:48,090 --> 00:42:49,140
Yeah.

691
00:42:49,950 --> 00:42:51,210
Because you're pregnant.

692
00:42:57,490 --> 00:42:58,540
Excuse me?

693
00:42:59,060 --> 00:43:00,520
Visiting hours are over at 10.

694
00:43:00,740 --> 00:43:01,790
Five minutes?

695
00:43:01,880 --> 00:43:02,930
Two.

696
00:43:09,760 --> 00:43:10,810
Hi.

697
00:43:11,440 --> 00:43:13,720
Oh, Ann. Oh, thanks for coming.

698
00:43:14,240 --> 00:43:18,399
I thought I'd be here sooner, but I had
the closing in Sacramento. I know, I

699
00:43:18,400 --> 00:43:19,780
know. It's good of you to come.

700
00:43:21,780 --> 00:43:23,360
Everybody in the firm made it.

701
00:43:24,500 --> 00:43:25,550
Yeah,

702
00:43:26,740 --> 00:43:27,790
I appreciate that.

703
00:43:27,791 --> 00:43:30,019
Were there many other people here?

704
00:43:30,020 --> 00:43:32,140
No. Her daughter, a few friends.

705
00:43:34,440 --> 00:43:36,060
She made me alive again.

706
00:43:36,640 --> 00:43:43,519
A year ago, I was a tired old man, and
she came in and she challenged

707
00:43:43,520 --> 00:43:44,570
me.

708
00:43:46,600 --> 00:43:47,940
She empowered me.

709
00:43:48,960 --> 00:43:50,880
She did a little of that to all of us.

710
00:43:51,920 --> 00:43:54,540
But you, she loved.

711
00:43:56,520 --> 00:43:57,570
I miss her.

712
00:44:03,920 --> 00:44:04,970
I miss you.

713
00:44:20,780 --> 00:44:21,830
Goodbye.

714
00:44:21,831 --> 00:44:25,889
Come on, they're gonna throw us out of
here.

715
00:44:25,890 --> 00:44:30,440
