In the criminal justice system,

The people are represented
by two separate,

Yet equally important groups,

The police
who investigate crime

And the district attorneys
who prosecute the offenders.

These are their stories.

- Make it last, hoss.
- Cool, man.

- How were the waves?

- Could be better.
Could be worse.

Get your deliveries done?
- Record time.

- You brought one back?
- Uh, it's brampton.

The family said her white count
flat-lined,

She went in her sleep.

Nobody beats stage four,
trevor.

Hey, I told you,
you can't buy weed here.

- Doing you a favor, bro.

There's a narc and a lowrider
eyeballing your door.

- Go away.
- Come on, man.

- Trouble?
- Nothing I can't handle.

- We've got spatter out front
and in here,

And at least three different
sets of footprints.

- Beat him down,
dragged him to the safe,

Pressed his print
to the biometric lock here.

There's blood
on the scanner pad.

- If this is the same
four-man crew

That hit the other dispensaries,
it's a big escalation.

- Maybe he didn't want
to give up the safe.

- A gang of heavily strapped
guys shove guns in your face,

You give up the safe.

- Not if you're trevor knight.

He was a pro surfer
out of hawaii.

Huge talent.

He probably had a hot temper

With a rep
for hitting the bottle.

- A real laid-back
surfer dude.

- What's more laid-back
than dead?

- When did you find the body?

- Uh, just before 6:00.

Trevor has me come in early
to pick up deliveries

For shut-ins.

- Door-to-door service.

- Yeah, it's cut-throat
competition, man.

Some of grow-ops
are offering facials

And foot rubs...
and all kinds of stuff.

- These gouge marks on the side
of your boss' truck,

Any idea who did that?

- Probably one of the neighbors.

They don't really like having
a dispensary next door.

- Any of them dislike it
more than others?

- I couldn't say, man.

You know, some kid
stopped in yesterday

And claimed there was a narc
in a blue lowrider

Casing the place, but...

I don't know, man.

- Do you know how much
was in the safe?

- Trevor handled the cash,

I took care of dope
and deliveries.

- We'll need to see the books.

- Trevor's wife deena's
got the books.

Uh, trevor kept them at home
to protect the customers.

- From what?

- Zealot cops looking
to pad arrests.

Oh, like that doesn't happen?

- Why don't you just give us
her address?

- It's legal dope.

So you wanna see
my prescription card,

Or the head scarf speak
for itself?

- It's okay.

I saw your son win the open
at huntington.

- He and deena
should've been back in hawaii

Where he could train properly.

Me and my little friend
melanoma.

- We need to see the financial
records of the grow-op.

- I have them upstairs.

- How long has the storefront
been open?

- Nine months.

He was using it to pay
for my chemo,

While he restarted
his surfing career.

- I know this is difficult,

But can you think
of anyone at all

Who might have had a dispute
with your son?

- I know my son's reputation.

But he gave up fighting

When he quit drinking
and married deena.

He was thinking
of starting a family.

You're good at that.

- A misspent youth
and three years in vice.

- They didn't have to kill him.

- It wasn't my choice
to come back to the mainland.

It wasn't my choice
to sell weed.

But once trevor made up
his mind...

Bank statements
and vendor accounts.

- You happen to know the weekly
take at the grow-op?

- Around $20,000.

It was peanuts compared
to other storefronts.

But trevor never viewed it
as a permanent business.

- How about the safe?

You have any idea
how much was in there?

- A little over $100,000.

The armored car company

Was supposed to collect
the money every week,

But trevor
kept missing the pick-ups

Every time he had
to take his mom to the hospital.

The company warned us about
keeping too much cash on hand.

That's why they insisted
we install that safe last month.

Not that it made a damn bit
of difference.

- Munchies?
I checked with narcotics.

The blue lowrider
was definitely not surveillance.

- So maybe it was
a robbery crew.

- Okay, we got five jobs
over a two month period.

Hit and split pros.

Until they drop a body

Making it open season
on drug dealers.

- State-sanctioned dealers.

- The robberies
are spread across lapd

And sheriffs' jurisdiction.

The dispensaries all used
different armored car companies.

All varied
their pickup schedules.

- Okay, let's restart
from the freshest case.

$100,000 taken
from a newly installed safe.

Who knew how much
would be in the safe?

- The victim, the wife,
and the armored car company,

Security arms.

- All my people were vetted,
printed, and polygraphed,

Including the secretaries.

- Any recent hires?
Anyone suddenly leave?

- Nope.

- Your client was killed
with $100,000 in his safe,

Which you installed.

- Knight's security was a mess.

He was missing deposits
every other week.

The safe was better
than nothing.

- That green truck,
isn't that your competition's?

- It used to be.

Our parent company went
on a buying spree last year,

Bought out a bunch
of the smaller players.

We're still consolidating
operations.

- Are wellfort
and t.W.Z. Securities

Two of those smaller players?

- Yeah.

- In other words,

All the dispensaries are being
serviced by one company.

- These operations
you consolidated,

Is one of them
the dispatch office?

- Yeah.

- Am I in some kind of trouble?

- We're just reviewing
everyone's paperwork.

We noticed you used
your maiden name

On your job application.

- Getting a divorce.

- Oh, is that your idea or his?

- Mine.
My ex is not a good guy.

- When's the last time
you saw him?

- Not long enough ago.
I'll tell you that right now.

- So that's like,
what, ten days ago?

This is your signature
on the visitor's log

From vacaville 10 days ago,
yeah?

Husband's a prisoner there.
Armed robbery.

- I told you.
He's a bad guy.

- Not so bad that he didn't rate
a conjugal visit.

That's what it says
in the visitor's log.

One-hour conjugal visit.

- Here's what we think...

You used your maiden name
to conceal the fact

That you're married
to an armed robber

So you could get a job here.

- We also think
that your husband,

The armed robber,

Has somethinto do
with stick-ups

At the five dope dispensaries

Serviced by your company's
armored cars.

- I want a deal.
- You want it, earn it.

My husband owed a guy a favor
he met inside.

Chuck roker.

I gave him a list
of ten dispensaries.

- Was trevor knight
in harbor city on the list?

Right at the top.

Knight kept missing pick-ups.

Cash was piling up in his safe.

- Where do we find roker?
- I just got a phone number.

- We're gonna give you
one chance to help yourself.

You're going to call...
look at me.

You're gonna call roker

And you're gonna tell him
that you have another target.

- Look at those little
red hairs.

Must be from the d.E.A.

The feds
always get the best dope.

- Keep talking like that,

The sses are gonna have you
peeing in a cup.

- You surfed but never smoked?

- Surfing was rebellion enough
in my house.

- Got a tan-panel van
heading in.

- All right.

- Hold, hold, hold.

Got a civilian bogie.

- Hey, you guys
got that bubble gum?

- We got all the flavors.
You pick.

- I don't want anything
too sleepy,

You know what I'm saying?
Just want a nice mellow.

- Come on, any time, kid.

- All right, I'll take
that bubble gum

And that afghani black.
A quarter each.

J.R.A., man,
juvenile rheumatoid.

- Yeah, right.

- No, it's a condition.

- You got to go out the back.

- What?
- Don't fight me, kid.

- You guys are cops.
- We're compromised.

- Hey, narcs, man!
They're narcs in there!

- They're all cops in there!

- What the hell are you doing?

- I told you
they were all cops.

Badge number 8238
at your service.

- Show them now! Out!

Get them up!
Get out here!

Let's go! Let's go!
Hands up!

- Cheeseburger
for your thoughts?

- You can't talk to me.

- Mr. Roker invoked.

Looks like he made good use
of the prison library system

During his last visit.

- Yo, I know my rights.

And you, you got nothing.

Nothing except maybe
a two-bit gun charge.

- We got a story.

Two handsome detectives
were chasing this crew.

Real pros.

Had control the second
they breached a door.

Until at a storefront
in harbor city,

Someone dropped a body,

Sticking the whole crew
with a murder beef

And a ticket for a hot shot
from the state of california.

The end.

- What?
- Eat up.

- Wait, no, get back here.

- No, you know your rights.
You invoked.

- Well, so give me
a damn waiver.

I'm not gonna let you pin
a murder on me.

- What happened in harbor city?

- Nothing happened
in harbor city.

We were never in harbor city.

Okay, yeah, we did
the other ones, okay?

Inglewood, commerce.
But harbor city was not us.

- We heard
it was top of your list.

- I staked it out.
Yeah, but I got chased off.

- Chased off
a big, bad boy like you?

- You'd bail too
if big-ass samoan

Shoved a sawed-off mossberg
in your face.

- Paint us a picture
of this samoan.

- Big. Really big.
Gang tats.

He told me that harbor city
belongs to s.O.S.

Sons of samoa?

- You catch a name?

- No, the dude drove off
before I could ask.

- Describe the samoan's car.

- It's a, uh, a lowrider.
Impala.

Light blue.
Early '60s maybe.

- I think you're looking
at joey fatu.

35, old-school s.O.S.

Pinched for robbery.
Then again for manslaughter.

Currently out on parole.

- Fatu own a blue impala?

- Nothing listed.
What's your interest?

- A robbery crew was casing
a harbor city weed store.

We think he ran them off

So he could rob
the place himself.

- S.I.D. Found three sets
of shoe prints on the scene.

Any idea
who he'd be working with?

- Well, fatu's kind of low man
on the pecking order.

Could be s.O.S.

Could be he branched out
on his own.

- Any emergency contacts
on the booking reports?

- The contact he gave
his parole officer

Is a deena peeko knight,
rolling hills.

- Trevor knight's wife.

- It's not what you think.
- Really?

'cause right now, it looks like

You and joey fatu conspired
to kill your husband.

- You didn't want to move here.

You didn't want to sell weed.

And $100,000,

Well, that'd get you
a nice start back in hawaii.

- Are you telling me
that joey killed trevor?

- You know different?

- Joey and I used
to be married, okay?

It didn't last long.
It was a mistake.

- I'd say he still has feelings
for you

If he gave your name
to his p.O.

- Joey was trevor's
silent partner.

- He lent trevor the money
to start the grow-op.

$30,000.

Joey was the only one we knew
with that kind of cash.

Trevor gave him a cut
every week.

- Dealing with your ex
didn't bother trevor?

- Pro-surfers don't make
anything unless they win.

That's why trevor
was training so hard.

So he could get back
on the circuit

And we could walk away
from the grow-op.

- What did joey think
of your exit plan?

- I... I don't know.

I mean, trevor dealt with him,
not me.

I wouldn't even know
how to find him.

- She spins a good story.

- Assuming it's true,

Maybe joey tried to squeeze
a bigger cut out of trevor.

- Why settle for 10%
when you can get 100%?

- The old hippie
who worked for trevor,

He might know something
about joey.

-

You okay, mr. Toomey?

- Yeah. Yeah. I just...
I came home and found this mess.

I, uh, I... I guess
I got robbed.

- Why don't you come on
out here?

Come on. Come to me.

It used to be you could park
at the beach

And leave your door wide open
for days.

Now it's all punk-ass kids
and 30 people fighting

For the same bit of sand.

- That's a nasty looking cut
on your cheek.

And the way you're holding
those two fingers,

I'd say they're broke.

- Tripped on something
in the parking lot.

- Well, that thing
you tripped on

Didn't happen
to look like him, did it?

- You know who that is though.

- Yeah.

- Did you know joey fatu
was partners with trevor?

Is that who paid you a visit?

- He came in.
He tore my place apart.

He thought I killed trevor
and took the money.

- Joey told you that?

- Funny thing, I said I thought
he might've done it.

And he just said
if he'd wanted to kill trevor,

He'd done it clean
back at the beach.

- Which beach?
- Uh, lunada bay.

- There's knight.

- Look what we have here,
the big blue bomber.

Blow that up.

Registered to a tracy mathers,
hermosa beach.

- Still warm.

Tracy mathers, it's the police!

We have a warrant!

- Police!

- Baby, you're too much.

- Yo, joey, get your hands up!
- No, don't hurt him!

- Ma'am, get out of the way!
Joey, we have a warrant for you!

- Get out of my house!
- Joey, step away from the girl!

- You bastards, get out!

- Give me a taser.

- No, no, no, no.

- No, you bastards!
No, don't shoot him!

- Help! Get him off me!
I can't breathe!

I can't breathe!
Get him off!

- Another quiet night
in the hotel california.

- I didn't do knight.
- Knight took your woman.

- I was long done with her,
and jealousy ain't my stripe.

- Deena didn't play up to you
to get the $30,000

To open the grow-op?

Make you think she still cared?

- Maybe she did.

Maybe you and her
killed knight.

- Knight was my meal ticket.

- Knight was planning to close
the grow-op.

- The grow-op was nothing

Compared to what I was gonna
make off of knight's surfing.

- What do you mean?
- Endorsements.

Surfing gear, clothing, boards.

Once knight got back on tour,

I was gonna front
all his expenses in return

For 40% of everything.

- And he agreed to that?

- We were negotiating.

- You mean
you were muscling him.

- I was looking
to help the guy.

- How were you gonna help him?

- Knight was gonna surf
this tourney next month.

I put a hand on the one guy
who could've beat him.

Del broadleaf.

I told him not to show up.

- Real sorry about trevor.

Man had all the talent
in the world.

- How did you two get along?

- As well as t got along
with anybody.

- You make a nice stick.
- Thanks.

- You see him around
much lately?

- Couple of weeks ago,

This big samoan tried
to scare me off

From surfing against trevor
at a tourney.

Didn't sound like trevor,

So I went by his house
to check it out.

- What'd he say?

- He said the samoan
was out of line.

Said I should come out and surf

So he could kick my ass
fair and square.

A week later, he comes by,
apologized again.

Said he wanted to buy
a new competition board.

His favorite was all bashed up

Like somebody had taken
a hammer to it.

- The samoan?

- Some dudes up at lunada bay.

- Any dudes in particular?

- Trevor didn't say.
It's surfing, you know?

Too many bodies,
only so many waves.

- Most of these look like
variations of the same tag.

M.B.C. Or m.B.G.

I can't quite tell.

- Waves are all closed out.

- That's bad right?

Check out the rainbow knife.

- Looks like you're expecting
trouble.

- Sharks.

- Sharks put those dings
in your board?

- Hey, can't you people
read theigns?

You're trespassing.

- Go back inside, sir.

- When you get off my land.

- The beach is public property
from san ysidro

All the way to oregon.

Or do you need me to come up
there and draw you a map?

- It's only public
to the high-tide line.

- This idiot's out here shaking
his fist every day.

Thinks if he makes it hard
enough to use the beach,

People will stop trying.

- So those sharks,

They have anything to do
with those tags over there?

- You know sharks can't write.
- We're trying to help.

- Guy's got to carry a knife
to go surfing?

If it's such a hassle,
why bother?

- Get a board and catch
one good wave.

Come on, let's see if we can
I.D. These sharks.

- M.B.C. Moon bay crew.

I worked a call four months ago

Where those mutts beat down
a 17-year-old kid from torrance.

Three on o.
Real predators.

- What happened with the case?

- Disappeared into thin air.
Kid decided he fell.

- So the m.B.C. Put a scare
into the kid?

- Bought him off
is more likely.

Now, the moon bay crew,

They're a bunch rich-boy surfers
with surplus attitude.

Even got their own web page.

- The moonay crew.

Carlton campbell, logan rudman,
patrick scott.

Nothing on their sheets,

But all three have sealed
juvie records.

- I'm seeing luxury vehicles
and high-end sports equipment.

Who's got the deep pockets?

- Dmv shows a land rover
registered to campbell

Rudman has a lexus.

- And patrick scott?
- Patrick drives a '98 p.O.S.

- Well,
there's your target then.

- Because he's poor,

That makes him
the softest touch?

- No, but it makes him the one
with the worst lawyer.

- Patrick scott?

Whoa. We should see
the other guy, huh?

- Wiped out on the rocks.
- That's funny.

When I go over the falls,

I'm busted up
all over the place,

Not just my hands.

- Maybe you're not as good
as me.

- Yeah, skill doesn't matter

When the washing machine
takes you.

Yore just along for the ride.

I wasn't figing.

- Yeah? Those cuts,
those are teeth marks.

And what do you wanna bet
they match the dental records

Of a very dead man?

- Kid lawyered up.
Won't budge.

- I'll talk to him.

Alone.
Turn the camera off.

How are you, jimmy?

Jimmy and I have tried, what,
eight cases against each other?

- My client invoked his right
to remain silent.

- Yeah, don't worry, jimmy,
one of these days,

I'll let you win one.

- Don't push it.
- All right. All right.

I'm here
to offer your client a deal

If he'll testify
against his friends.

- No.

- You're not o.J., kid.
You're not robert blake.

Those guys had money
for big time lawyers.

No offense, jiy.

See, that's the difference
between you and your friends.

They have money.
You tag along.

And no matter how hard you try,

They know you're not one
of them.

And you know it too.

You're all alone here.

- What do I have to do?

- Just tell me what happened.

- This is all off the record
till we have a signed deal.

- Of course.
- And the camera?

It's already off.

- We just wanted
to teach knight a lesson.

For weeks he'd cut us off,
taking swell after swell.

Claimed he was training.

- Well, apparently he was.
- Still.

It was logan's idea
we should bang on him.

You know, bust his board,
key his ride.

But knight wouldn't back down.

- Who suggested you visit knight
at his storefront?

- Carlton.

Carlton campbell.

He punched knight.
He knocked him down.

He kicked him in the head.

There was all this blood.

We... we panicked.

Logan saw the safe.

Says his dad has one
just like it.

Said we should make it look
like a robbery.

- Where's all e money now?

- With carlton.

He took it.

- Guess we were expected.
- I'm gray campbell.

This is my house.

You have arrest warrants
to show us?

- That's right.

For carlton campbell
and logan rudman.

We also have a search warrant
for your house.

- I need you boys to stand up.
Now.

- You're going to be fine,
carlton.

I'll be right behind you.
Don't answer any questions.

Are we clear?
- Yeah.

- Our sons have invoked
their rights.

Video has been taken to document
their physical condition

So don't even think
of getting rough with them.

- Don't worry, mr. Campbell.

We leave the rough stuff
to choirboys like your son.

- Your people almost done
ripping our home apart?

- Just your son's room
and the communal areas.

Don't worry.

We're king video

To show we haven't roughed up
your decor.

- Did I do something
to earn your resentment?

- With all due respect,
mr. Campbell,

You're not being victimized.

Neither is your son.
- My son is innocent.

His only crime is befriending
a borderline sociopath

Like pat scott.

It's a petition.

- To limit beach access?

- Homeowners have the right
toeel safe

In their own backyards.

- The beach belongs
to everyone.

Spare me
the "greater public good."

Public good ends when I catch it
pissing on my hydrangeas.

- Maybe you should petitioning
for more public toilets.

You know, back in the day,

My dad used to pack me
and my brothers up in a camper,

Drive to the beach
all the way from boyle heights,

Spend the whole day
swimming in the surf.

Fall asleep listening
to the waves.

Made the rest of the week
bearable.

The california promise.

That promise didn't come free,
mr. Morales.

And now the bills are due.

If you'll excuse me,

I don't believe your warrant
covers this room.

- People v. Carlton campbell
and logan rudman.

Murder with gang enhancement

And the special circumstance
of robbery.

How do you plead?

- Not guilty.
- Not guilty.

- People on bail?

- Given the severity
of the charges,

The people request
the defendant be held

Without bail, your honor.

- Your honor, my clients
have no priors.

They also have deep family
and community ties.

- They face counts that carry
the death penalty.

They have the financial means
to flee the jurisdiction.

- I'm with ms. Price.

Defendants will be remanded
without bail.

- My clients had nothing to do
with knight's murder.

Pat scott acted alone.

- And you're gonna
convince a jury

He somehow used three pairs
of shoes?

The footprint sizes
match your clients.

- Lots of people
wear sizes 9 and 11.

And your star witness
is a sociopathic liar.

- What's this?

- Sworn affidavit stating
that pat scott raped a girl

At carlton campbell's house.

It's always good
to see you, ricardo.

- She was drunk.
We all were.

I mean, she was halfway
passed out.

- Meaning she couldn't legally
consent.

Meaning you raped her.

- Logan and carlton
were the ones

Pushing me to do it.

They cheered me on.

- And when the girl sobered up
and realized what happened?

- Carlton's dad covered it up

Just like he did with the kid
we beat up outside paco-paco's.

- Gray campbell
paid off a victim?

- It was just like the thing
with knight.

We were in it together

And things got out of control.

- If our only witness
is an admitted rapist,

Our case just went from thin
to translucent.

- Three dumb kids did not commit
the perfect crime.

- S.I.D. Couldn't find anything
at campbell or rudman's house

To link them
to knight's murder.

No bloody clothes or shoes.
No money.

- Look at this.

Gray campbell's study.

There's a bottle
of lighter fluid

Next to the fireplace.

It's a gas fireplace.

Something must've been
hard to burn

If they needed a boost
from lighter fluid.

- Carlton burned evidence
in daddy's fireplace.

- Or daddy burned it for him.

- The study wasn't covered
under the search warrant.

- The lighter fluid's
in plain sight.

Talk to the judge.

Maybe we can get a second bite
at the apple.

- Lab tests from the chimney
and fireplace

In mr. Campbell's study.

Traces consistent
with the burning

Of a neoprene wetsuit.

Just like the one his son
and his friends wore

When they killed trevor knight.

- Lot of things e made out
of neoprene.

- The police also found traces
of rag paper...

25% cotton, 75% nen...

Used exclusively
by the bureau of engraving.

- Nobody burns money
unless you're ridiculously rich.

Or it's stained with blood.

Or both.

- Here's the good part.

We found the same evidence
on the fire tools

Along with your fingerprints.

- You don't need to respond
to that.

- Your son's the killer,
mr. Campbell.

He's the one we want.

- If there's nothing else...

- My family and I
have done nothing wrong.

- Tell the detectives
I'm filing on mr. Campbell.

I want him booked and processed
by tonight.

- We can't prove
he destroyed evidence.

- I'm not charging him
with destroying evidence.

I'm charging him
with willful promotion

Of felony gang activity.

You're just doing this
because he's arrogant.

- I'm doing it because he's
"guilty under the law."

Isn't that what you always say?

- I actually mean it.

You only say it
when you're pissed off.

- I'm charging him.

-

- Felony gang activity?

Your honor, these charges
are simply an attempt

By mr. Morales
to bully my client

Into testifying
against his own son.

- Mr. Morales, if you're wasting
this court's time

With frivolous charges...

- Your honor,
under the legal definition,

Mr. Campbell is a member
of the moon bay crew,

And the people are perfectly
willing to offer proof

Of his criminal liability.

- A gang member?
Gray campbell?

- The people kindly refer
defense counsel to 186.22.

- We know the statute, ricardo.

- Good.

Then we can settle this
with a preliminary hearing

And sort out whether
the people's charges

Warrant a trial.

- Under california law,

A criminal street gang
is any ongoing association

Or group of three
or more persons,

Formal or informal,

That commit crimes as one
of its primary activities.

A gang has a common name,
identifying sign,

And members that have engaged
in an on-going pattern

Of criminal gang activity.

- Would defending your territory
through intimidation, assault,

And vandalism... that qualify
as criminal gang activity?

- Yes.
- How about murder, rape?

- Yes. No doubt.

- Detective rivas,

In your opinion
as a 14-year veteran

Of the lapd anti-gang unit,

Does the moon bay crew qualify
as a criminal street gang?

- Yes. Absolutely.

- So tell me, detective,
aside from defending their turf,

What is the primary activity
of the gangs you've battled

In your 14 years?

Is it drug dealing?
- Yes.

- Gun running?
- Yes.

- Prostitution?
- Yes.

- All criminal activities.

And what is the moon bay crew's
primary activity?

It's surfing, is it not?

Correct me if I'm wrong,

But surfing is still legal
in the state of california.

- Yes.
- Thank you.

- It was a Thursday afternoon.

I was at the beach.

I'd only moved out from tucson
six weeks before.

These three boys came up.

They were surfers.

They said that this was their
beach and I was trespassing.

One of them,
his name was carlton,

He said they were having a party
at his house

With a bunch of other kids.

It was this big house
up on the hill.

- What did you do then?

- I went with them
to the house.

We all started drinking.

- And what happened next?

- I remember...

Someone on top of me.

And people chanting,
like, "go, go."

When I woke up,

My panties were gone

And I knew that I'd had sex.

That I had been raped.

- Did you or anyone
call the police?

- No.

This man...

Him... he came in the room.

I was crying.

He said he was carlton's dad.

He said
that I should protect myself.

He told me how calling
the police

Would destroy the rest
of my life.

How rape victims get humiliated

And nobody ever believes them.

- What did mr. Campbell
do next?

- He offered me money.

$5,000.

Then he drove me to a bus stop

So I could wait for the bus
back to long beach.

- Carlton told me what pat scott
did to that poor girl

So I went in to talk to her,
to offer some comfort.

I did offer to pay
for her medical costs...

After all,
it happened in my house.

But I did not bribe
or threaten her.

- Well, now, mr. Campbell,
how often do you go out

With your son and his friends
to commit a robbery?

- I don't.

- What about sell drugs
or beat people up?

- I don't do any of those things
and neither does my son.

- You must recognize this?

- It's gibberish.
- Thank you, mr. Campbell.

Your witness.

- Mr. Campbell, if you knew
that amy reynolds had been raped

In your home,
why didn't you report it?

- I had no first-hand
knowledge.

And truthfully, it would be up
to the girl to report it

Since she's the one who'd ve
to endure the investigation.

- And your $5,000
convinced her not to.

- Spare us the editorial,
mr. Morales.

- Mr. Campbell, do you recall
paying $10,000

To a young man
named peter markham?

I'll refresh your memory.

This is from the statement given
to the police by peter markham.

He was assaulted by your son
and his friends four months ago

Outside a beach cantina
in palos verdes.

Mr. Markham is from torrance.

He made the mistake of surfing
in lunada bay.

- That was a misunderstanding.

My son and his friends
apologized.

And the money
was for medical expenses.

- And again, criminal charges
never materialized.

- One has nothing to do
with the other.

- Except that you were aware
that your son and his friends

Were involved in felonious
conduct such as rape

And assault, weren't you?

- I don't...

- And thanks to your checkbook,

You facilitated such conduct,
didn't you?

- No.
No, that's not true.

- Isn't it a fact your son
is 100% financially dependent

On you?

- He's enrolled in college.

- You pay for his food,
his housing, his car,

His surfing equipment.

You pay his credit card
charges,

Including charges
for spray paint.

I don't keep track
of what he buys.

- But when it comes to keeping
strangers out of lunada bay,

When it comes
to defending your turf,

You and your son's gang friends
are all of one mind,

Are you not?

- I don't know
what you're talking about.

- You formed a group called

"palos verdes concerned
citizens," I am correct?

- To organize
a neighborhood watch.

- To petition county government
to limit beach access.

That's the prime focus
of your group,

To keep non-residents
of palos verdes off the beach?

Off the public beach?

- To keep them off
our property.

- The truth is you don't
really want anybody

Who can't buy
into your neighborhood

Anywhere near your beach.

You don't want them spoiling
that view

With their campers
and their screaming babies,

And their $5 beach chairs.

- You're just trying to make me
look like a terrible person.

- I'm describing
what you are...

A thug defending his turf.

- Objection.
- Withdrawn.

- Your honor, the state
has failed to show

That gray campbell participated
in any illegal activity.

They failed to show that he
is a member of the m.B.C.

Failed to show how 186.22 might
even possibly apply to him.

And why is that?
Because it doesn't.

The prosecution's case
is simply an insulting attempt

To stretch the boundaries
of the statute

To ensnare an innocent man.

Thank you.

- Van ness gangsters,
eight-trey crips,

Rolling 60s.

Street gangs are known
by the territory they claim.

The territory they defend
through force and intimidation.

It's no different
for the moon bay crew.

No matter that the turf
they defend

Is a crescent of water bordered
by multimillion-dollar homes.

In our state the beach
is the great leveler.

Everybody's the same.

Shorts, cooler, floppy hat.

No kings, no princes.

But mr. Campbell
doesn't agree.

He believes the beach
should belong to an elite.

He drilled that belief
into his son.

He then materially supported
his son

As his friends harassed those
who would venture

Into their turf.

When the m.B.C. Turned
to assault,

He helped cover it up.

When they turned to rape,
he helped cover that up.

He is up to his elbows
in their bloody activity.

Thank you.

- Never a dull moment with you,
is there, mr. Morales?

All right, it is the view
of this court

That the people have met
the minimum standard

And shown
there is sufficient evidence

To take this case to trial.

Mr. Campbell will remain free
on bond.

We are adjourned.

- How can you ask me
to turn on my own child?

- Because if you don't,

You'll be going to jail
with him.

Or maybe I should just cut
a deal with him against you

As a co-conspirator
in the murder of trevor knight.

After all, you filled him
with so much entitlement,

He stomped another man to death
for riding a wave.

- Can he do this?

- You're already part
of the gang, mr. Campbell.

It's a very short jump
to murder-conspiracy.

- I came home.

There was smoke.

Carlton was in my study

Trying to burn some things
in the fireplace.

There was all this money
covered in blood.

I couldn't understand
how this could've happened.

I just knew I had to fix it.

That's what fathers do.

We fix it.

- Are the people satisfied?

- We are, your honor.

- Pursuant to a plea agreement,

With respect to the charge
of second degree murder,

I hereby sentence
carlton campbell

And logan rudman to a term
of 15 years to life

In the state penitentiary.

With respect
to the amended charge

Of voluntary manslaughter,

I sentence patrick scott
to six years

In the state penitentiary.

We are adjourned.

- Should've known
there was a catch

When you offered to buy lunch.

- Oh, you don't like the beach?

- Gritty sandwiches,
lousy parking, skin cancer?

Not really my thing.

- You don't know
what you're missing.
