00:30:36,376 I'll walk out of here and you'll never see me again. 690 00:30:36,376 --> 00:30:40,589 But if you're simply rejecting me on policy, then dammit. 691 00:30:40,589 --> 00:30:43,091 I'm digging my heels in until I can 692 00:30:43,091 --> 00:30:44,718 talk you into having dinner with me. 693 00:30:47,721 --> 00:30:51,349 The police invaded their house. 694 00:30:51,349 --> 00:30:55,312 Operation Hammer blew through their doors. 695 00:30:55,312 --> 00:30:58,482 They beat Edward up, kicking him, cracking his ribs. 696 00:30:58,482 --> 00:31:01,276 They knocked his mother to the ground breaking her hip. 697 00:31:01,276 --> 00:31:02,903 They handcuffed the kids. 698 00:31:02,903 --> 00:31:05,030 They destroyed everything they could. 699 00:31:05,030 --> 00:31:06,990 And you know the worse part? 700 00:31:06,990 --> 00:31:09,826 This kind of thing happens all the time. 701 00:31:09,826 --> 00:31:12,746 See, the police department in this city knows that most 702 00:31:12,746 --> 00:31:15,499 of us are so afraid, we'll let them get away with anything. 703 00:31:15,499 --> 00:31:18,460 The result is you can work hard... 704 00:31:18,460 --> 00:31:20,045 pay

Watts, 708 00:31:26,009 --> 00:31:27,636 to the police you're just another criminal, 709 00:31:27,636 --> 00:31:30,347 and you should expect to be treated accordingly. 710 00:31:30,347 --> 00:31:34,935 Now, somehow the-- the liberals don't seem to care. 711 00:31:34,935 --> 00:31:37,395 Somehow, a good many African-Americans don't seem to 712 00:31:37,395 --> 00:31:39,815 care either, what matters is getting rid of the gangs 713 00:31:39,815 --> 00:31:42,150 and getting rid of the drugs, and that's it. 714 00:31:42,150 --> 00:31:44,319 You know, ladies and gentlemen, a lot of people 715 00:31:44,319 --> 00:31:47,614 you wouldn't expect it from fall right into line. 716 00:31:47,614 --> 00:31:49,699 Whatever the cops wants to do, it's okay with them 717 00:31:49,699 --> 00:31:52,119 as long as they do something. 718 00:31:54,621 --> 00:31:56,957 Oh, my God! 719 00:31:56,957 --> 00:32:01,169 I think we need to look at what it is they're doing. 720 00:32:01,169 --> 00:32:04,589 Seems to me what matters most in America is that 721 00:32:04,589 --> 00:32:08,051 everybody, the rich, the poor, the black, the white 722 00:32:08,051 --> 00:32:11,096 all of us have the same basic rights. 723 00:32:11,096 --> 00:32:15,600 The Constitution is the same in Watts, or Compton, or Englewood 724 00:32:15,600 --> 00:32:18,270 as it is in Beverly Hills, and if you say that it's not... 725 00:32:19,896 --> 00:32:21,815 then we have far more to fear from the police 726 00:32:21,815 --> 00:32:23,316 than all the street gangs on earth. 727 00:32:38,081 --> 00:32:40,917 They had a valid warrant. 728 00:32:40,917 --> 00:32:43,128 Everything they did was exactly 729 00:32:43,128 --> 00:32:45,046 according to established procedures. 730 00:32:46,590 --> 00:32:49,843 The address on the warrant was wrong. 731 00:32:49,843 --> 00:32:53,221 And what happened to these people should not have happened. 732 00:32:53,221 --> 00:32:55,432 And you certainly should consider that. 733 00:32:55,432 --> 00:32:58,602 You should also consider this... 734 00:32:58,602 --> 00:33:02,772 There are 70,000 gang members in Los Angeles County alone. 735 00:33:02,772 --> 00:33:04,399 Seventy thousand. 736 00:33:04,399 --> 00:33:07,819 And they're armed with assault rifles and machine guns. 737 00:33:07,819 --> 00:33:11,364 That's why they call it the drug war, ladies and gentlemen. 738 00:33:11,364 --> 00:33:15,577 And as of right now, we're on the side that's losing. 739 00:33:15,577 --> 00:33:17,913 If we don't allow the police to treat it like 740 00:33:17,913 --> 00:33:20,790 a war, we'll be on the side that's lost. 741 00:33:20,790 --> 00:33:23,877 And if you think it's bad now, just wait. 742 00:33:23,877 --> 00:33:26,755 There'll be more drugs and more addicts 743 00:33:26,755 --> 00:33:29,841 and more dealers buying more guns. 744 00:33:29,841 --> 00:33:33,929 My opponent would accuse me of appealing to fear. 745 00:33:33,929 --> 00:33:36,097 The fact is, we are frightened. 746 00:33:36,097 --> 00:33:38,850 And what we're frightened of is real. 747 00:33:38,850 --> 00:33:41,311 These officers didn't set out to destroy a house 748 00:33:41,311 --> 00:33:44,231 any more than they set out to violate the Constitution. 749 00:33:44,231 --> 00:33:48,860 And yes, the Constitution makes all of us equally free. 750 00:33:48,860 --> 00:33:52,906 The police department's job is to make all of us equally safe. 751 00:33:52,906 --> 00:33:54,574 They can't accomplish that in Watts 752 00:33:54,574 --> 00:33:58,078 the way they accomplish it in Beverly Hills. 753 00:33:58,078 --> 00:34:00,914 And what most people in Watts know all too well... 754 00:34:02,749 --> 00:34:05,543 is that if you're not safe... 755 00:34:05,543 --> 00:34:07,045 you can't be free. 756 00:34:17,639 --> 00:34:20,058 [indistinct whispering] 757 00:34:22,727 --> 00:34:25,730 It's just that Jimmy Hoffs is my lawyer, and I-- I guess 758 00:34:25,730 --> 00:34:28,275 I'm just confused why he shouldn't be here. 759 00:34:28,275 --> 00:34:30,402 Cynthia, this is very difficult for me. 760 00:34:30,402 --> 00:34:33,571 Normally, co-counsel agree, and that way they can present 761 00:34:33,571 --> 00:34:36,950 a unified front to the client, sometimes they disagree. 762 00:34:36,950 --> 00:34:39,911 And this is one of those times. 763 00:34:39,911 --> 00:34:43,665 I'm not saying that I'm right and Jimmy's wrong. 764 00:34:43,665 --> 00:34:47,419 It could be that you'll agree with him and ask me to back off. 765 00:34:47,419 --> 00:34:48,712 And to be perfectly truthful 766 00:34:48,712 --> 00:34:50,463 that would make it simple for me. 767 00:34:50,463 --> 00:34:52,549 But I do have an obligation to tell you what I think. 768 00:34:53,675 --> 00:34:55,176 Okay. 769 00:34:55,176 --> 00:34:58,596 First, Jimmy Hoffs is an excellent attorney. 770 00:34:58,596 --> 00:35:00,432 Now the fact that he is not perceived as such 771 00:35:00,432 --> 00:35:02,225 is a total mystery to me. 772 00:35:02,225 --> 00:35:04,394 What do you mean he's not perceived as such? 773 00:35:04,394 --> 00:35:06,896 I have an inside source at Nolsted. 774 00:35:06,896 --> 00:35:09,399 I have been told that they hold him in very low regard. 775 00:35:09,399 --> 00:35:12,569 And that as long as he is chief prosecutor here, 776 00:35:12,569 --> 00:35:14,988 that the offer will stay at 125. 777 00:35:14,988 --> 00:35:17,532 Now, personally, I think they're wrong. 778 00:35:17,532 --> 00:35:20,952 I think Jimmy can beat them and clip them 779 00:35:20,952 --> 00:35:23,121 for three or four hundred thousand. 780 00:35:23,121 --> 00:35:24,581 Four hundred thousand? 781 00:35:24,581 --> 00:35:26,499 Jimmy said that we could get three million. 782 00:35:26,499 --> 00:35:29,002 Yes, that's where we disagree. 783 00:35:29,002 --> 00:35:31,296 Do you think that three million is unrealistic? 784 00:35:31,296 --> 00:35:32,547 It's not impossible. 785 00:35:32,547 --> 00:35:35,467 But, well, no one has even won 786 00:35:35,467 --> 00:35:37,385 this cause of action before much less. 787 00:35:38,970 --> 00:35:41,681 Cynthia, even if you were to get that much, 788 00:35:41,681 --> 00:35:43,933 Nolsted would appeal this forever. 789 00:35:43,933 --> 00:35:46,811 By the time you actually saw the money, a million dollar 790 00:35:46,811 --> 00:35:49,648 judgment would have the present day value of 300,000. 791 00:35:51,149 --> 00:35:52,901 Jimmy never told me that. 792 00:35:52,901 --> 00:35:55,820 Look, I know Jimmy's a little infatuated 793 00:35:55,820 --> 00:35:58,365 with the publicity he could get with this trial. 794 00:35:58,365 --> 00:36:00,700 But he would never mislead a client. 795 00:36:00,700 --> 00:36:02,285 He must have told you. 796 00:36:02,285 --> 00:36:05,580 Um, you think this case is worth what? 797 00:36:05,580 --> 00:36:08,249 Between three and four. 798 00:36:08,249 --> 00:36:10,168 I also think because of my connections 799 00:36:10,168 --> 00:36:13,129 at Nolsted, that I might be able to get that now. 800 00:36:14,798 --> 00:36:16,257 [indistinct chatter] 801 00:36:16,257 --> 00:36:19,135 - Let me think about this. - Absolutely. 802 00:36:19,135 --> 00:36:22,305 And decide exactly what you're looking for, Cynthia. 803 00:36:22,305 --> 00:36:25,600 If your goal in bringing this lawsuit is getting 804 00:36:25,600 --> 00:36:27,977 a public verdict, and focusing the blame 805 00:36:27,977 --> 00:36:29,688 on Nolsted, stay with Jimmy. 806 00:36:29,688 --> 00:36:31,064 He's a great noise maker. 807 00:36:31,064 --> 00:36:32,649 He'd be a perfect attorney for that. 808 00:36:32,649 --> 00:36:34,526 But if you're in this for the money, 809 00:36:34,526 --> 00:36:37,070 you might consider making an adjustment. 810 00:36:37,070 --> 00:36:39,614 [indistinct chatter] 811 00:36:39,614 --> 00:36:41,074 Man 4: May I take your order? 812 00:36:44,994 --> 00:36:48,498 I haven't been a judge very long. 813 00:36:48,498 --> 00:36:51,626 But I hope I never have another case that... 814 00:36:51,626 --> 00:36:54,671 overwhelms me with such a sense of 815 00:36:54,671 --> 00:36:57,882 futility as this one does. 816 00:36:57,882 --> 00:37:01,511 No matter what I do here nothing gets served. 817 00:37:01,511 --> 00:37:03,596 He is eight years old. 818 00:37:03,596 --> 00:37:06,683 I can ship him off to the youth authority, which would 819 00:37:06,683 --> 00:37:10,645 have a questionable deterrence factor, and which could end up 820 00:37:10,645 --> 00:37:14,399 making him much more of a criminal than he is right now. 821 00:37:14,399 --> 00:37:17,777 Or I could send him back to the same neighborhood 822 00:37:17,777 --> 00:37:20,572 where he'll be subject to the same conditions, 823 00:37:20,572 --> 00:37:23,450 the same influences. 824 00:37:23,450 --> 00:37:27,370 The psychiatrists laugh at me when I talk 825 00:37:27,370 --> 00:37:32,459 about rehabilitation or retribution. 826 00:37:32,459 --> 00:37:35,754 They tell me he is a kid growing up, 827 00:37:35,754 --> 00:37:38,506 doing the things that kids do 828 00:37:38,506 --> 00:37:40,842 in his neighborhood. 829 00:37:40,842 --> 00:37:44,179 In Brentwood, it is street hockey and wiffle ball. 830 00:37:44,179 --> 00:37:47,932 In Compton, it is drugs and guns. 831 00:37:47,932 --> 00:37:50,602 His parents... 832 00:37:50,602 --> 00:37:51,853 are good people. 833 00:37:51,853 --> 00:37:53,938 They're law abiding, they try 834 00:37:53,938 --> 00:37:56,816 as hard as they can, they're just poor. 835 00:37:56,816 --> 00:38:00,487 Which leads me back to my previously-stated conclusion. 836 00:38:00,487 --> 00:38:02,447 That no matter what I do... 837 00:38:04,449 --> 00:38:06,284 nothing is served. 838 00:38:07,660 --> 00:38:09,204 Felix, stand up. 839 00:38:11,873 --> 00:38:14,918 I hope to God, young man, that you realize 840 00:38:14,918 --> 00:38:16,669 that because of what you did... 841 00:38:18,046 --> 00:38:20,173 a very good man is dead. 842 00:38:20,173 --> 00:38:23,134 And two little boys around your age... 843 00:38:23,134 --> 00:38:25,386 now have to grow up without a father. 844 00:38:25,386 --> 00:38:29,390 And I also hope you realize that you could be dead too, 845 00:38:29,390 --> 00:38:33,978 if Officer Carlson had aimed at your head instead of your leg. 846 00:38:33,978 --> 00:38:36,814 Which, under these circumstances, 847 00:38:36,814 --> 00:38:39,359 he was certainly entitled to do. 848 00:38:39,359 --> 00:38:42,237 You won't be so lucky the next time, Felix. 849 00:38:42,237 --> 00:38:46,616 If you continue delivering drugs or carrying guns, 850 00:38:46,616 --> 00:38:48,284 you will end up dead. 851 00:38:53,039 --> 00:38:56,209 I'm releasing the defendant to his parents' custody. 852 00:38:56,209 --> 00:38:58,127 He will be under house arrest 853 00:38:58,127 --> 00:39:00,004 for two years, except for school. 854 00:39:00,004 --> 00:39:02,465 Other than school, he can only leave 855 00:39:02,465 --> 00:39:04,801 the house when accompanied by a parent. 856 00:39:04,801 --> 00:39:06,803 An electronic bracelet will be attached 857 00:39:06,803 --> 00:39:09,305 to his ankle which will monitor his movements. 858 00:39:09,305 --> 00:39:12,100 I am also sentencing the defendant 859 00:39:12,100 --> 00:39:15,979 to a drug education program to be determined at a later date. 860 00:39:18,731 --> 00:39:21,317 That is my ruling, we're adjourned. 861 00:39:22,735 --> 00:39:25,196 [mellow music] 862 00:39:26,948 --> 00:39:28,032 Ah... 863
