I'm Harry Seabreeze

I was wondering if I might see Paris as

a matter of some urgency or would not

inconvenience she was home like the news

my husband have committed an unspeakable

crime came in the person of his attorney

there are secrets strangely from the

moment I saw mr. Seagraves face in the

door I knew in some way he had brought

news about me too mr. C Grange I'd

appreciate your telling me what this is

a path in all fairness I need to speak

to your husband first what has he done

July C coffee yes please

you read my mind believe in pastor

dad we're gonna rest me for collecting

legal debt I told that boy when it took

that's gonna die Edward said she hadn't

but 12 13 years old thank you very much

two women in their own house one of them

nothing more than a child if she dies

Paris the state of Tony's legally bound

to come after the one that shot her I

want to know what this is about

besides busted the bone was there did

just as much as me that's two witnesses

on our side I think you ought to leave

buster Devon out of it for now

you aren't in this together yet and if

this child dies you don't want to be in

it together then my child

well Buster Devon is in my employment

and he will say any damn thing I tell

him do you pay him enough to spend the

next five years killing snakes for the

state they didn't anything scandalous

mr. Avila I'd like to set your mind at

ease on that

you eaten both this house here on they

should mercy on us Arab girl she's back

baby necklace though she's a girl ma'am

she's over here ion across the top of

the chart as times live signs beneath

every patient in this room was in

jeopardy MS trout as we can we keep them

together put a portal in here night and

day and he carefully checks the life

signs of each patient on the our souls

leaving no and they passed on I think

you can tell from the blood pressure

notations on this Sarah's chart that

said in the clock this morning she was

nearly expired by eight o'clock sworn in

line and she ratted back nine o'clock

she regained consciousness and was

complaining of pain in her stomach you

want to get a closer look mr. fountain

this right here is the approximate angle

of penetration perforated on the open

deliver and ended up in a right buttocks

the pollutes it's dolena ones pass

through an appendage ISM are welcome to

places

get a good look they catch it I just

wanted to see how she was you know with

the exception of this orderly here I

think you find gentleman grieving among

the medical staff with this clinic did

you know mr. state's attorney got to

tell Vicki child is dead well how much

is this gonna cause she was 12 years old

I didn't have nothing to do with her

birthday all right listen to me now I

got us two days grace for mr. Baum I

it already years ain't nothing funny

I want you to talk to mom and dad

except your bail okay all right yep nice

afternoon mr. Singh great am too

you went to the clinic on the digit

broad daylight you went to the clinic

you got an obligation you best keep that

in mind

death to is hard

that's the agreement mr. Seagraves will

have informed you miss Rosa sales

expired name for yesterday

I believe they're putting on Brown this

afternoon

leaving this office with no choice but

today charge you and busted Eva home

with her death no pegs I asked mr.

Bonner if I may point out the

circumstances of the death

I'm not uncommon to the bottoms and may

speak more to the environs and the girl

than to mr. Trapp who happened to arrive

there to settle a businessman I was out

there to collect on a damn car somebody

got shot they did it themselves

Miss Mary says in that case shot herself

three times in the back

st. Peter says she jumped in front of a

train you don't blame the engineer

there's a set of natural rules it was

here before any of us well I have a rule

for you mr. trout

the state of Georgia wrote it down in

the Penal Code it says you cannot enter

another person's house and shoot them

dead the rule isn't for now ain't the

same kinda eyes ain't the kind of rule

the murder statutes to this state don't

differentiate between races those into

real rules and you know it the cigarette

if our this man's attorney I'd come and

collect him off this desk with the

informal nature of the meeting I think

perhaps my client spoke more freely than

he should have see that all right here

is two sets of rules and you've got your

law book rules and you got your common

sense now if there's some sort of fine

that I got to pay I wished you had said

it and get this over with

mister out you are now under arrest for

the murder of Rosa says and the

attempted murder of mayor says did you

that sir

be prepared the other seven goes up here

to find something wrong with that and he

said nothing wrong with it sir no sir

you know the better than me how much

gladly

[Music]

[Music]

I understood he was building a bizarre

fortress against the world outside

against me

the prevention is with the powerful stop

it what are you doing wrong with the

canned food Paris that's right safe

fruit and jars

[Music]

mrs. Chao this heresy braid looks like

you cut it here in a bowl someone do

such dishes we have to get you to the

doctor

thank you sir

I'm sorry you had to see all this

yeah the under strain everybody does

things wonder under strain Paris did it

he believes I'm poisoning him well it's

no consequence at all six months this

will have all passed things will be how

they were

I have to go upstairs and get some

things

well they aren't likely to keep you

overnight you surprised that a case like

this came to trial ether County where'd

you say your boys from Atlanta you know

someone like to do your time mr. mayor

is there a chance in hell

Jewellery here is going to come back

with it that's what trials for son to

find out meant your own feelings my own

feeling is that Carl Bonner is a fine

young attorney but he is a no-match in a

court of law from his tire Seagraves who

hasn't lost a case since mr. Bonner

wasn't short playing it was a young

Eagle Scout and history Georgie you've

always know that see grades would know

I'm Freddie no Boy Scout and here are

see graves at all that y'all excuse me

the reason we are here today stuck to

our chair in the committee is to arrive

at a judgment on Paris fell you're gonna

hear of a tragic death few stories how

it happened but before we tell you ours

let me simply say this we all regret

that someone was killed no matter who

was at fault

but even as I say that I also remind you

now that you are not being asked to

regret the loss of a life today that in

much of here for you here to decide at

the Paris trial an honest and respected

citizen Evita County deliberately caused

now the prosecute over here mister

bottom he's going to tell you that he

did cause it with malice and forethought

and when he tells you that I want you to

think of the times you've seen mr. trout

on the street or perhaps spoken with him

in his store I want you to ask yourself

if it is possible that he would drive

out to the bottoms to shoot a girl he

didn't even know what he intentionally

jeopardize his life and his business

over an $800 debt first route was not

concerned over an $800 de Paris felt was

concerned with the principle that we all

have to pay our way call it and white

that's why he went out there is a

reasonable man to say that now the

prosecution is going to ask you to

believe something else that mr. trout in

busted Devon just walked into that house

and began to shoot colored people up and

that the color people had no party is

that possible anything's possible we've

all had our frustrations with colored

people but is it likely no and that's

all you're gonna have to decide with

because there is no weight of evidence

here one way or the other

you wanna just have to use your own

common sense and ask yourself is it

likely is it beyond reasonable doubt and

there's only one answer to that question

and the answer is No

miss Troutman that would be 2:05 but

stairs last door on your left

watch that third step it's loose

how's your food better I hope I'm not an

inconvenience I'm convinced it's no

longer among my considerations and I'm

not in the habit of putting myself in

the middle of family matters but the

separation between yourself and Paris

presents your husband an additional

burden

what would the trial begin I'm sure you

do not mean to inflict what burden do

you mean the appearance of things see

marriage is something that people a jury

understands the way they marry

themselves what I'm saying is that

there's a certain amount of lying that

goes on between people that live

together politely

it makes cohabitation possible that how

it was when your watch was a lot a lot

mine

everything was extremely polite my

husband has never afforded me that he

doesn't strike poses he's not good at

that I mean little buyers know

flirtations with the truth on the day

phone on conversation in your office mr.

trout nearly drowned me in my own bath

later at the store he assaulted me in

what manner

and an unmentionable Manifesta secrets

with a bottle

I will not break this confidence

probably matters now does it to the

appearance of things it does what is it

you're asking me for nothing

you wanted something no I'm not asking

you for anything would you describe what

happened next

she she even started walk on in today at

all how many sharks they seem like

firecrackers

it was almost together being taped with

four or five seconds then I went out to

the back then was mom and Rosa coming

out the house

mom I hold myself here was mr. trout or

mr. d-von back there

no sir they both gone by there did you

fight with mr. trout in it did you put

your hands on yes

did he put his hands on you

yes sir but he had his hands on the butt

a little while see he touch nothing long

but when he let his hands off us we was

changed for good

no further questions

touch nothing long when he left his

hands off her what it was changed for

good yes sir

would you tell us son how things were

before mr. trout changed and I won't

know if I exactly could well let's see

when you brothers needed money where did

they go to borrow mr. trout come up to

see them did they come into mr. trout

stolen in town well he come out that day

I'm not talking about the day of

shooting right now we'll talk about that

later right now I want to hear about

this beatific life y'all had it you say

mr. track change

I say we was all of it what I'm getting

at here is that Parris trout is part of

the reason you had the good life that

you did that he was a friend to your

family loaned you money when you needed

it and would still be a friend if y'all

hide and try to rob him and cheat him on

this call and I going too fast for you

and also we're gonna answer the question

a new one question I'm asking for you to

describe the life but you say Harris

trout changed it was Rosa's life

[Music]

I went on in to do it I could and mr.

buster Devon come right in behind me as

shooting on the back I walks on and he

shoot me again a little before I got to

mr. Trautman Rosie right there in my own

house

what did you do I got to the table and I

couldn't stand up no more

I felt the bullets in a different aspect

and I just wanted to lay down and then

Rosie come in and then mr. trout can you

shoot us more and you were lying down no

further questions

you want to piss they say no there's no

gun in your house yes there is one it

belonged to my husband and do you know

where it is yes I noticed everything in

my home now missus says you said the

bullets were still inside you

why haven't you have them have them

removed I got my reasons for that I'm

sure you do but our contention here is

going to be that you are accusing mr.

Diwan so that the jury doesn't know so

that the jury won't believe him later

when he tells his side and I want you to

give you an opportunity to speak on that

body I wouldn't say nobody shot me if

they didn't well our contention is going

to be that you folks had a gun - hey

y'all y'all custom mr. Trapp for

everything in the catalogue and then you

came along after the shooting and you

put the gun away

isn't that true no sir I told the truth

about it you could make it look any

which way not but I told how it happened

yes well with all due respect they say

that's what we call the jury for to

decide no sir they don't decide what

happened that's already been done

all they decide is if they're gonna do

something about it

[Music]

I was on my way to a meeting I saw your

light what's on your mind I don't know

I don't know why I stopped

would you like a drink somebody

I'm bothered by this case on pride for

your husband certain aspects of it have

transcended the courtroom and they will

not leave me alone

rich aspects the girl herself

somehow I've obligated myself to the

meaning of what happened it won't settle

in one place for another it keeps moving

again and again and I don't know where

to expect an extra one she's going to

intrude on my thoughts there was a

moment today when I felt her remorse as

great as if I'd shot myself

does she affect you that way do you

think of her too

not the same

somehow there's a connection you and I

Rosie sayers died into each other's

secrets I've told you my secrets you

haven't told me

I'll quit this case that's a secret

at the same time I'm defending your

husband I find myself with personal

feelings that aren't entirely honorable

the thing he did with the bottle I

cannot get that out of my mind it

aroused me

no I didn't mean I wanted to do that

myself I wouldn't know how to flick that

on land by

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

now mr. Diwan you said that this says

cursed mr. trout yes sir

she said you quite son-of-a-bitch I'll

shoot your damn heart out then she had a

gun no sir I didn't see it right then

the boy I got up out of his seat and

tried to attack mr. trout then a girl

convinced to turn in his clothes pull

him off balance and they tussle only in

the house then Ms sayers come in there

and jumped him from the back and that is

when I seen the girl had a pistol rosy

sing yes did you also have a gun no sir

I own one like everybody else but I

didn't have it with mr. dev oh yeah I

must have forgot it it was the all of

them against mr. tribe now could you

tell us mr. Dion did you see who fired

first that was my ass but I know it was

their idea

when was over Paris come out there it

looked like world war woman we both made

it to the car as fast as we could

Paris was real nervous over what

happened said he's never known a good

family the turn on him like that I'm

through it there this witness your honor

I might need to leave town I stayed this

long you stayed because that's what you

do where would you go

how'd you meet Paris two years ago I was

teaching this fan I met him in a bus at

them why him

I must been plenty of others he didn't

lie there was a sureness about him that

was missing in my own life and excited

me I mistook his nature and my own

you don't have to be

[Music]

[Music]

Your Honor on my advice mr. trout now

exercise his privilege to read into the

record his statement on how this tragedy

occurred at this time I do not believe

it would be in mr. trout's best

interests to testify beyond that

Jahna I do not honestly know how all

this happened mr. Devon and myself visit

the home of Maris saia's on a financial

matter and when we had come upon the

porch

we were cussed and attacked during the

course of our struggles I felt in the

sailors weight across my back and then

both our hands on my windpipe at the

same time the younger woman appeared

with a gun and I began to shoot I don't

know how many times but when I stopped

they were both on the floor cycle

statement mr. trout yes sir I didn't go

out there to shoot them people I'm in

the business of helping people that's

what we do and we expect to make a

living out of it

colored people ain't the only ones got a

right to listen I didn't nothing like

this to happen I didn't have nothing

against that gal I didn't have anything

against the woman

Oh honest truth is I don't have anything

against him now with all somebody's baby

once we all come from the same place I

didn't want to kill nobody I didn't want

to die that's the reason I shot him and

knowing the reason in defense of my own

life

when I loose mr. counselor not yet

how long gonna take depends on what

they're doing ain't gonna do the thing

what can they do

didn't anybody say fires not all the way

you might keep that in mind next time I

think you forgot where you are maybe I

paid you to look after me oh you looked

after so far as my wife

I want more back than maybe you ought to

call me sooner Paris

you oughta called me before you and

Buster Devon went over there shoot that

girl Damaris saves and I would have told

you it was murder that boiled the money

you ought to have explained that better

yokte have explained the whole damn

thing better there's some things power

said business done explaining thank you

they're back

manslaughter what in hell is

manslaughter know what it is

Wow it ain't two years old do it how

long is it gonna take you straighten

this out not me

I'm through with it you and me and cuts

the cord yet mr. lawyer you missed the

point I'll tell you the point the man

stole from me tomorrow stole anything I

do the same thing I didn't but two years

past time off for good behavior and

probably the worst join in the service

ah right World War one hey yeah hey do

you ever kill anybody

[Music]

watch your step there

drought weather we've been having

suppose rain is even though you bring

something for Harry can you get the

clock off the mammal like to shoot you

like a common thief

[Music]

you never think of something like that

that a judge could be bribed by powers

to just let him out you give people

credit for more sense

you love restricting what were you

thinking when you saw

I'm sorry you feel sorry for just like

watching someone die the distance

sometimes when a person is dying you

wonder who it is it's going away

he might be standing around in the dark

and I'm not down there with you might

have let you alone

gentlemen as you know elaborate and

perhaps brilliant plans have been drawn

filed proud city's upcoming

sesquicentennial parades pageant train

ride to Atlanta not to mention the fact

that I am agreed to ride an elephant up

a public street our free man committee

appointed to draw up the Confederate

gray ordinance have reached a stalemate

on the question of penalties I cannot

make up my mind one way or the last

longer in Paris trout's dead over in

Pete County you trying to say something

by my office mr. Singletary nothing

personal you are the state's attorney

man was convicted of a crime in this

town and sentenced and then showed up

loose on the street the day after he

little bit creepy

you never felt sorry 500 citizens of isa

county georgia attended the service of

harry Seagraves he was an admired and

respected man and loved Paris went into

the ground in a distant part of the

cemetery almost unnoticed

Rosie sayers lay in another place

obscured from town by a stand of pine

trees a place where none of us would be

reminded of who she had been but there

is no hiding Rosie

Paris and Harry are everywhere I

glimpsed him in crowds I see them in my

dreams my darkest dreams

it's the oldest lesson of the south it

is easier to bury bent if again
