00:00:01,335 --> 00:00:03,099
NARRATOR:
In the criminal justice system
2
00:00:03,170 --> 00:00:07,038
the people are represented by two
separate yet equally important groups,
3
00:00:07,107 --> 00:00:08,939
the police
who investigate crime
4
00:00:09,009 --> 00:00:11,774
and the district attorneys
who prosecute the offenders.
5
00:00:11,845 --> 00:00:13,370
These are their stories.
6
00:00:14,781 --> 00:00:17,113
Where the hell is the car?
I called like 20 minutes ago.
7
00:00:17,184 --> 00:00:19,175
Would you please relax?
8
00:00:19,253 --> 00:00:21,017
The contractions
are just starting.
9
00:00:21,088 --> 00:00:22,886
You're making me nervous.
10
00:00:22,956 --> 00:00:24,321
Maybe I can hail
a cab on the corner.
11
00:00:24,391 --> 00:00:25,654
(sums)
12
00:00:26,693 --> 00:00:29,663
JIMMY: Oh, my God.
Get the phone. Call 911!
13
00:00:29,730 --> 00:00:33,030
Jimmy, take it easy. My God, my
water hasn't even broken yet.
14
00:00:33,100 --> 00:00:35,626
No, I'm serious, Janet.
Call 911 now!
15
00:00:39,072 --> 00:00:40,801
Male, white, mid-30s.
No wallet on him.
16
00:00:40,874 --> 00:00:42,774
But we did find
this in his pocket.
17
00:00:42,843 --> 00:00:45,642
Oh, voucher it and get it to the lab.
Anybody see anything?
18
00:00:45,712 --> 00:00:47,077
Just the couple
who found the vic.
19
00:00:47,147 --> 00:00:48,979
Where are they?
She was in labor,
20
00:00:49,049 --> 00:00:50,744
so I took down their
info and let 'em go.
21
00:00:50,817 --> 00:00:53,047
You're a soft touch, Jordy.
(LAUG HS)
22
00:00:53,120 --> 00:00:54,485
What do we have?
23
00:00:54,555 --> 00:00:56,523
Single gunshot to the
back of the head.
24
00:00:56,590 --> 00:00:59,252
Close range.
No exit wound.
25
00:00:59,326 --> 00:01:00,816
Check out the gang
tatts on his arms.
26
00:01:00,894 --> 00:01:03,522
FONTANA: Yeah, and those are
standard-issue prison shoes.
27
00:01:03,597 --> 00:01:05,156
He's built
pretty solid, too.
28
00:01:05,232 --> 00:01:07,098
There's a lot of
recreation time upstate.
29
00:01:07,167 --> 00:01:08,328
Thank you.
BRODY: Anytime.
30
00:01:09,169 --> 00:01:10,500
Iwonder
when he got out.
31
00:01:10,571 --> 00:01:14,007
And I bet you a dollar that
that baggie is crystal meth.
32
00:01:14,107 --> 00:01:16,838
Caucasian convicts drug of
choice as soon as they get out.
33
00:01:16,910 --> 00:01:20,244
He had a hell of a day. Scored
some crank and then got clipped.
34
00:01:20,314 --> 00:01:22,976
I love a public service
homicide, don't you?
35
00:02:12,199 --> 00:02:14,293
Soot stippling,
muscle stamping.
36
00:02:14,368 --> 00:02:16,803
This is a direct
contact wound.
37
00:02:16,870 --> 00:02:18,838
The slug I fished out of his
brain looks like a 9mm.
38
00:02:18,905 --> 00:02:20,373
Any signs he put
up a struggle?
39
00:02:20,440 --> 00:02:23,740
He couldn't put up much.
His blood alcohol was .16.
40
00:02:23,810 --> 00:02:25,938
He'd also had a recent
skull fracture.
41
00:02:26,013 --> 00:02:27,708
Probably within
the last six months.
42
00:02:27,781 --> 00:02:29,613
Must have had his ass kicked
when he was in the joint.
43
00:02:29,683 --> 00:02:30,809
You got
a time of death?
44
00:02:30,884 --> 00:02:34,946
(SIGHS) Well, signs point to
between 8:00 and 11:00 last night.
45
00:02:35,022 --> 00:02:38,925
Based on his stomach contents,
his last meal was pizza.
46
00:02:38,992 --> 00:02:40,153
Pepperoni.
47
00:02:40,227 --> 00:02:43,322
Well, there's two things every con
wants the minute they get out.
48
00:02:43,397 --> 00:02:44,922
The second one
is a pizza.
49
00:02:44,998 --> 00:02:47,262
(CHUCKLES) Really?
What's the first?
50
00:02:48,802 --> 00:02:51,965
The ViC'S prints came back.
Billy Trammell, 32.
51
00:02:52,039 --> 00:02:54,303
He was at Sing Sing.
He did six and a half
52
00:02:54,374 --> 00:02:56,069
of a four-to-six
for armed robbery.
53
00:02:56,143 --> 00:02:57,201
Six and a half?
54
00:02:57,277 --> 00:02:58,540
Uh-huh.
Bad behavior.
55
00:02:58,612 --> 00:03:00,637
Plus a little extra time for
assaulting another inmate.
56
00:03:00,714 --> 00:03:02,045
He still owed
the state two.
57
00:03:02,115 --> 00:03:03,207
When was he released?
58
00:03:03,283 --> 00:03:05,377
Yesterday morning. First
train to Grand Central.
59
00:03:05,452 --> 00:03:06,886
And 12 hours later
he's dead.
60
00:03:06,953 --> 00:03:09,354
We know he spent his lunch
money on a couple of slices
61
00:03:09,423 --> 00:03:11,414
and maybe
some crystal meth.
62
00:03:11,491 --> 00:03:13,653
All right,
firm upthetimeline
63
00:03:13,727 --> 00:03:16,890
and see if he bothered
to check in with his P.O.
64
00:03:21,334 --> 00:03:22,699
PAROLE OFFICER: Trammell
showed up about noon.
65
00:03:22,769 --> 00:03:25,363
We did the interview.
He aced the urine test.
66
00:03:25,439 --> 00:03:26,463
Gave me the standard
song and dance
67
00:03:26,540 --> 00:03:27,905
about going straight
and getting a job.
68
00:03:27,974 --> 00:03:29,032
But you weren't
buying that?
69
00:03:29,109 --> 00:03:30,599
Trammell wasn't exactly
a model prisoner.
70
00:03:30,677 --> 00:03:32,941
He served more of his time
in the hole than out of it.
71
00:03:33,013 --> 00:03:34,572
Plus he's
hardcore Brotherhood.
72
00:03:34,648 --> 00:03:37,015
Half the dudes that come
out belong to a gang.
73
00:03:37,084 --> 00:03:38,518
Brotherhood's more than
a gang, it's avirus.
74
00:03:38,585 --> 00:03:40,178
Inside the prisons
and out.
75
00:03:40,253 --> 00:03:42,347
I gotta tell you, those guys
give me the heebie-jeebies.
76
00:03:42,422 --> 00:03:44,686
Last one threatened to
kill me if I violated him.
77
00:03:44,758 --> 00:03:45,782
Did you?
78
00:03:45,859 --> 00:03:49,090
Oh, yeah. But I thought about
it twice before I did.
79
00:03:49,162 --> 00:03:50,630
Since then, I don't
walk down the hall
80
00:03:50,697 --> 00:03:52,131
to the men's room
without my Glock.
81
00:03:52,199 --> 00:03:53,928
Where was Trammell gonna
live when he came out?
82
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:56,230
With his sister, temporarily.
East Village.
83
00:03:56,303 --> 00:03:58,203
I checked it out
before his release.
84
00:03:58,271 --> 00:03:59,636
Yeah. Avenue C.
85
00:04:01,274 --> 00:04:02,833
That's two blocks from
where he was killed.
86
00:04:02,909 --> 00:04:05,606
It sure is.
Thanks a lot.
87
00:04:06,446 --> 00:04:08,540
I knew he was coming,
but he never showed up.
88
00:04:08,615 --> 00:04:10,208
Did you talk
to him yesterday?
89
00:04:10,283 --> 00:04:11,808
No.
90
00:04:11,885 --> 00:04:13,683
He must have told somebody
he was gonna be here.
91
00:04:15,155 --> 00:04:18,648
I got a call in the middle of
the afternoon from some guy.
92
00:04:18,725 --> 00:04:21,217
Wanted to know what
time Billy'd be home.
93
00:04:21,294 --> 00:04:22,318
Like I'd know.
94
00:04:22,395 --> 00:04:23,760
Do you know who
that might be?
95
00:04:23,830 --> 00:04:25,696
Could have been the same
guy that stopped by here
96
00:04:25,766 --> 00:04:27,632
a few weeks ago
looking for him.
97
00:04:28,301 --> 00:04:30,827
Frank something.
Said he was a friend.
98
00:04:31,505 --> 00:04:33,439
What'd Frank look like?
99
00:04:33,507 --> 00:04:35,669
Ex-con. Bald.
A little...
100
00:04:35,742 --> 00:04:37,039
What-do-you-call-it,
under his lip?
101
00:04:37,110 --> 00:04:38,441
A soul patch?
102
00:04:38,512 --> 00:04:40,344
Whatever. Big.
Scary-looking.
103
00:04:40,413 --> 00:04:42,040
Tattoos?
Oh, yeah.
104
00:04:42,449 --> 00:04:43,814
Like some kind
of circus freak.
105
00:04:43,884 --> 00:04:45,818
All over his neck,
his fingers.
106
00:04:46,186 --> 00:04:48,154
One of his ear lobes
was messed up,
107
00:04:48,221 --> 00:04:50,553
like somebody
ripped his earring out.
108
00:04:52,492 --> 00:04:54,586
Here we go.
All of Trammell's priors.
109
00:04:54,661 --> 00:04:56,959
Let's see if he had
any associates.
110
00:04:58,532 --> 00:04:59,897
Hey, look,
there's a Frank Sweeny.
111
00:04:59,966 --> 00:05:01,593
I'm gonna look for
an arrest photo.
112
00:05:05,806 --> 00:05:08,832
Well, hello, Van Gogh.
What was he arrested for?
113
00:05:09,309 --> 00:05:11,004
Armed robbery
in Queens in '97.
114
00:05:11,077 --> 00:05:12,306
D.A. declined to prosecute.
115
00:05:13,213 --> 00:05:14,578
Queens?
116
00:05:15,248 --> 00:05:16,374
Utopia Parkway?
117
00:05:16,449 --> 00:05:19,009
Yeah, that's right.
Convenience store stickup.
118
00:05:19,586 --> 00:05:23,318
That's the same robbery that
Trammell was arrested for.
119
00:05:23,390 --> 00:05:26,690
Sweeny was outside at the wheel
when a radio car pulls up.
120
00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:29,320
He bails and he leaves
Trammell holding the bag.
121
00:05:29,396 --> 00:05:30,795
New when Sweet“)
gets arrested,
122
00:05:30,864 --> 00:05:33,356
he claims that he didn't know
Trammell was sticking up the store.
123
00:05:33,433 --> 00:05:34,696
Trammell gave him up?
124
00:05:34,768 --> 00:05:36,202
Apparently not.
125
00:05:36,269 --> 00:05:38,533
So Sweeny skated
on a robbery charge.
126
00:05:38,605 --> 00:05:41,666
And Trammell has six long
years to think about it.
127
00:05:42,475 --> 00:05:45,035
Sweeny must've been
wetting his knickers,
128
00:05:45,111 --> 00:05:47,011
knowing that Trammell
was gonna get paroled.
129
00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:49,879
Sweeny did a stretch
himself for possession.
130
00:05:49,950 --> 00:05:51,440
Got out a month ago.
131
00:05:51,518 --> 00:05:54,977
I say we find Mr. Sweeny and
have a little chat with him.
132
00:05:56,156 --> 00:05:57,453
How come you guys
are up my ass?
133
00:05:57,524 --> 00:05:58,889
I'm just
a working stiff now.
134
00:05:58,959 --> 00:06:01,053
You're a paroled felon
on a short leash.
135
00:06:01,127 --> 00:06:03,255
What were you the night
before last, Frank?
136
00:06:03,330 --> 00:06:05,890
I was moving boxes to
awarehouse till midnight.
137
00:06:05,966 --> 00:06:07,957
I've got three dudes
who'll vouch for me, too.
138
00:06:08,034 --> 00:06:09,468
Well, we're gonna
need their names.
139
00:06:09,536 --> 00:06:12,733
Yeah? How about it was Eeney,
Meeney, Miney, and Moe.
140
00:06:12,806 --> 00:06:14,672
Hey! Don't be
a smart guy.
141
00:06:14,741 --> 00:06:18,075
You know how easy it is to get violated
and sent back to the Graybar Hotel?
142
00:06:18,144 --> 00:06:19,270
Do you?
143
00:06:19,346 --> 00:06:20,438
Yeah.
144
00:06:20,513 --> 00:06:23,141
So your boy, Billy Trammell,
your old stickup partner.
145
00:06:23,216 --> 00:06:24,240
Yeah, he's upstate.
146
00:06:24,317 --> 00:06:25,716
Uh-uh. Just got out.
147
00:06:26,820 --> 00:06:27,810
Well, I ain't seen him.
148
00:06:27,888 --> 00:06:30,687
Well you missed your big chance,
Frankie boy. He's dead.
149
00:06:30,757 --> 00:06:32,225
So what are you saying?
lwhacked him?
150
00:06:32,292 --> 00:06:34,659
You left him that night in the
Utopia Parkway convenience store
151
00:06:34,728 --> 00:06:36,492
holding nothing
but his Johnson bar.
152
00:06:36,563 --> 00:06:39,055
We figured you bumped him
before he could get to you.
153
00:06:39,132 --> 00:06:41,567
Trammell's sister said you came
by her house a few weeks ago.
154
00:06:41,635 --> 00:06:42,864
Look, I was just
trying to find him.
155
00:06:42,936 --> 00:06:45,667
See if I could help him out.
You know, get him adjusted.
156
00:06:45,739 --> 00:06:48,572
The guy did me a solid on
that Queens deal. lowed him.
157
00:06:48,642 --> 00:06:50,167
I think you still do.
158
00:06:51,778 --> 00:06:54,839
Look, Billy came by my crib
a couple of nights ago.
159
00:06:54,915 --> 00:06:56,906
Oh, you hooked him up
with some crank?
160
00:06:56,983 --> 00:06:58,781
No, man. Nothing like that.
161
00:06:58,852 --> 00:07:01,822
Went out, we had a few beers. You
know, talked about old times.
162
00:07:02,989 --> 00:07:05,390
I told him I saw his old
lady with some new guy.
163
00:07:05,458 --> 00:07:07,051
How'd he take that?
164
00:07:07,127 --> 00:07:09,152
He was pissed. Said he
wanted to go find the bitch
165
00:07:09,229 --> 00:07:10,390
and, you know,
straighten her out.
166
00:07:10,463 --> 00:07:11,862
ED: She got a name?
167
00:07:11,932 --> 00:07:12,956
Yeah. Michelle.
168
00:07:13,033 --> 00:07:15,024
Do you have any idea
where we can find Michelle?
169
00:07:16,469 --> 00:07:18,665
Yeah. He said she works
somewhere in the East Village.
170
00:07:19,973 --> 00:07:21,065
And?
171
00:07:21,141 --> 00:07:23,371
Nothing. I guess
a restaurant or something.
172
00:07:23,443 --> 00:07:24,933
Billy said, you know,
if he didn't get laid
173
00:07:25,011 --> 00:07:26,809
at least he'd get a free
meal out of the deal.
174
00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:28,473
Can I go back to work?
175
00:07:35,722 --> 00:07:37,281
Well, the Medical Examiner
did say
176
00:07:37,357 --> 00:07:39,621
that Trammell's last meal
was a large pepperoni.
177
00:07:39,693 --> 00:07:42,458
Yeah. So Michelle obviously worked
at a pizzeria in the East Village.
178
00:07:42,529 --> 00:07:44,019
How many of those
could there be?
179
00:07:44,097 --> 00:07:46,327
Thirty, 40, so.
180
00:07:47,367 --> 00:07:49,597
We hear that Billy
wasn't too happy with you.
181
00:07:49,669 --> 00:07:52,138
I never told him I was seeing
other guys while he was away.
182
00:07:52,205 --> 00:07:53,263
Were you afraid of him?
183
00:07:53,340 --> 00:07:54,967
Yeah, actually.
184
00:07:55,041 --> 00:07:56,941
He shows up here
the other night.
185
00:07:57,010 --> 00:07:59,308
Tried to explain to him
about Vince and me.
186
00:07:59,379 --> 00:08:02,644
He just kept screaming at me.
Calling me a whore.
187
00:08:02,716 --> 00:08:06,050
Finally, my boss threatened to
call the cops, and he spilt.
188
00:08:06,820 --> 00:08:08,151
Does Billy know
your new boyfriend?
189
00:08:08,221 --> 00:08:09,245
Yeah.
190
00:08:09,322 --> 00:08:11,723
Billy and Vince used to go down the
shore together in the summertime.
191
00:08:11,791 --> 00:08:12,952
That's where I met them.
192
00:08:13,026 --> 00:08:15,154
Does your boyfriend know
Billy came by to see you?
193
00:08:15,228 --> 00:08:19,131
Yeah. Said he was gonna talk to Billy
and tell him to leave me alone.
194
00:08:19,199 --> 00:08:20,860
Vince takes really
good care of me.
195
00:08:20,934 --> 00:08:23,460
He sounds like a real prince.
Where can we find him?
196
00:08:25,271 --> 00:08:27,000
He's not in
any trouble, is he?
197
00:08:31,111 --> 00:08:33,773
He's got a stack of transmissions
to work on and he just skips out.
198
00:08:33,847 --> 00:08:35,281
That's a hell
of a work ethic.
199
00:08:35,348 --> 00:08:36,645
ED: How long ago
did Vince leave?
200
00:08:36,716 --> 00:08:37,774
Half hour, 45 minutes.
201
00:08:38,284 --> 00:08:39,877
Any idea where he went?
202
00:08:39,953 --> 00:08:42,979
If I did, I wouldn't be
changing this gasket myself.
203
00:08:43,056 --> 00:08:44,888
Hey, he got a locker
or something back there?
204
00:08:44,958 --> 00:08:47,256
There's a hook on the
wall in the back.
205
00:08:47,327 --> 00:08:49,159
A beat-up leather vest.
206
00:08:53,666 --> 00:08:57,000
Today's Racing Form. He's got
a couple of entries circled.
207
00:08:57,871 --> 00:08:59,532
Belmont's over an hour away.
208
00:08:59,606 --> 00:09:02,075
Yeah. But there's an OTB
a couple of blocks from here.
209
00:09:03,910 --> 00:09:05,776
(ANNOUNCER CHATTERING ON TV)
210
00:09:10,383 --> 00:09:11,908
Four-to-five and she
runs out of the money.
211
00:09:11,985 --> 00:09:13,384
Never play
the chalk, brother.
212
00:09:13,453 --> 00:09:14,887
I know. I know.
It's just not my day.
213
00:09:14,954 --> 00:09:16,581
You have no idea.
214
00:09:21,361 --> 00:09:23,261
When was the last time
you saw Billy Trammell?
215
00:09:23,997 --> 00:09:26,591
I don't know. Six,
seven years ago maybe.
216
00:09:26,666 --> 00:09:27,758
Just before he went up.
217
00:09:27,834 --> 00:09:30,132
ED: So you didn't go see
him the other night. No.
218
00:09:30,203 --> 00:09:32,228
This guy disrespects
your girlfriend
219
00:09:32,305 --> 00:09:33,830
and you didn't take
care of the situation.
220
00:09:33,907 --> 00:09:35,602
Look, man, I ain't stupid.
221
00:09:35,675 --> 00:09:37,871
Billy's been in Gladiator
School the last six years.
222
00:09:37,944 --> 00:09:39,275
I don't want
any part of him.
223
00:09:39,345 --> 00:09:41,780
Even if that means Michelle
kicks your ass to the curb?
224
00:09:41,848 --> 00:09:43,316
She wouldn't do that.
225
00:09:43,383 --> 00:09:44,817
She don't want nothing
to do with him neither.
226
00:09:44,884 --> 00:09:47,182
Come on, Vince, she's just telling
you what you want to hear.
227
00:09:49,823 --> 00:09:52,815
(SIGHING) Billy was in Sing
Sing a couple of years.
228
00:09:52,892 --> 00:09:54,451
Michelle goes
to visit him.
229
00:09:54,527 --> 00:09:56,154
He asks her to
smuggle in some
230
00:09:56,229 --> 00:09:57,287
Did she do it?
231
00:09:57,363 --> 00:10:00,993
Hell no! Are you crazy? After
that, he and she were through.
232
00:10:01,701 --> 00:10:04,136
Oh, but I bet she didn't
tell Billy that.
233
00:10:05,538 --> 00:10:09,133
The only problem with this
little fairy tale is this.
234
00:10:09,209 --> 00:10:11,268
You told Michelle that
you were going to go
235
00:10:11,344 --> 00:10:12,505
straighten Billy
out that night.
236
00:10:12,579 --> 00:10:13,774
Lay the law down to him.
237
00:10:13,847 --> 00:10:15,611
Yeah, yeah,
I was talking trash
238
00:10:15,682 --> 00:10:18,174
because I don't want
to look like a punk.
239
00:10:18,251 --> 00:10:21,050
But believe me, I lit a candle
I don't run into the guy.
240
00:10:21,121 --> 00:10:23,419
Well, your prayers were
answered, pal. He's dead.
241
00:10:26,159 --> 00:10:28,184
Really?
Yeah, really.
242
00:10:32,832 --> 00:10:34,061
So where were you
on Monday night?
243
00:10:35,034 --> 00:10:37,628
I was playing poker
at Foxwoods all night.
244
00:10:37,704 --> 00:10:39,763
That would be one way
not to run into Billy boy.
245
00:10:40,373 --> 00:10:43,308
Three dollar table. I never
miss a Monday night.
246
00:10:46,312 --> 00:10:47,336
I saw the
surveillance tapes.
247
00:10:47,413 --> 00:10:49,745
The dude played non-stop from
8:00 to 2:00, Monday night.
248
00:10:49,816 --> 00:10:50,840
Only dropped $100.
249
00:10:50,917 --> 00:10:52,316
Well, he's in the clear.
250
00:10:52,385 --> 00:10:54,752
Did we get the LUDs yet
from the sister's phone?
251
00:10:54,821 --> 00:10:56,516
Yeah. The call
she got for Trammell
252
00:10:56,589 --> 00:10:58,887
the day he was supposed to
show up came from Sing Sing.
253
00:10:58,958 --> 00:10:59,948
From an inmate?
254
00:11:00,026 --> 00:11:01,824
We don't know that yet. I
have a call in to the prison.
255
00:11:01,895 --> 00:11:04,227
Riley said that Trammell
asked his ex-girlfriend
256
00:11:04,297 --> 00:11:05,958
to mule dope for him
when she came to visit.
257
00:11:06,032 --> 00:11:07,295
You think
this is about drugs?
258
00:11:07,367 --> 00:11:08,926
Well, it's the biggest
business in the joint,
259
00:11:09,002 --> 00:11:10,231
and the Brotherhood's
a major player.
260
00:11:10,303 --> 00:11:13,136
Well, if you leave now, you
could beat rush hour traffic.
261
00:11:18,678 --> 00:11:20,703
SNYDER: A gram of heroin that
goes for 60 on the street,
262
00:11:20,780 --> 00:11:22,305
sells in here for 1,000.
263
00:11:22,382 --> 00:11:23,907
That's an awful lot
of license plates.
264
00:11:23,983 --> 00:11:25,314
They do it all
through the outside,
265
00:11:25,385 --> 00:11:27,353
through family members
and money orders.
266
00:11:27,420 --> 00:11:28,819
Billy Trammell
dealing drugs?
267
00:11:28,888 --> 00:11:31,050
We think so.
Small time.
268
00:11:31,124 --> 00:11:34,094
He had a run-in with one of the Latin
King dealers earlier this year.
269
00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:35,719
Got his skull cracked.
270
00:11:35,795 --> 00:11:36,887
Who was the Latin King?
271
00:11:36,963 --> 00:11:39,625
Feo Ruiz. We prosecuted
him for assault.
272
00:11:39,699 --> 00:11:40,723
What was he
in here for?
273
00:11:40,800 --> 00:11:43,326
Six-to-12 for possession
with intent to distribute.
274
00:11:43,403 --> 00:11:46,737
Do you think this could've been a
drug beef between Ruiz and Trammell?
275
00:11:46,806 --> 00:11:47,796
Could've been.
276
00:11:47,874 --> 00:11:49,774
Could've been one guy looked
at the other guy cross-eyed.
277
00:11:51,277 --> 00:11:53,405
You still open
for business, Feo?
278
00:11:53,479 --> 00:11:56,005
Did the Latin Kings have
a beef with Billy Trammell?
279
00:11:56,950 --> 00:11:58,418
Nothing in particular.
280
00:11:58,484 --> 00:11:59,815
Was it about drugs?
281
00:12:00,019 --> 00:12:01,009
(SCOFFS)
282
00:12:01,354 --> 00:12:02,947
So why did you
throw down with him?
283
00:12:03,022 --> 00:12:05,491
He sat in my seat,
and I wanted it back.
284
00:12:05,558 --> 00:12:07,083
One of his Nazi
homeboysjumped in.
285
00:12:07,160 --> 00:12:09,185
We just tussled a little.
Nothing heavy.
286
00:12:09,929 --> 00:12:12,830
You cracked the dude's
dome on a cell bar.
287
00:12:13,533 --> 00:12:14,967
It wasn't me cuz.
,
288
00:12:15,034 --> 00:12:16,058
They charged you.
289
00:12:17,203 --> 00:12:19,433
They had to charge somebody, right?
They couldn't charge a screw.
290
00:12:20,340 --> 00:12:21,671
Wait, hold up.
291
00:12:22,375 --> 00:12:24,469
Are you saying that the corrections
officer cracked his skull?
292
00:12:25,211 --> 00:12:28,977

dogs, those two. Bloods and Crips.

and you're trying to lay it
off on a corrections officer?

You think I'm trying
to run a game on you?
298
00:12:38,124 --> 00:12:39,250
Talk to Marsden.

00:12:39,325 --> 00:12:40,520

Why would we believe him
any more than we believe you?

00:12:45,098 --> 00:12:47,192
Marsden's the boss Nazi
in here.
303
00:12:47,267 --> 00:12:50,862
He's got no reason to lie for a
boricua from the Bronx like me.
304
00:12:54,674 --> 00:12:55,869
You want me to stay?
305
00:12:55,942 --> 00:12:57,103
No, we got it,
we're good. Thanks.

00:13:00,713 --> 00:13:02,078
Have a seat, Mr. Marsden.

00:13:02,148 --> 00:13:05,379
I don't talk to 5-0.
Hey, on the gate!

00:13:09,722 --> 00:13:11,747
How'd your boy, Billy Trammell,
get his head busted in?

Screw says Feo did it.
311
00:13:16,829 --> 00:13:19,924
Feo says a corrections officer did
it and that you'd vouch for him.
312
00:13:21,067 --> 00:13:22,762
Yeah? Why would I do that?
313
00:13:24,404 --> 00:13:26,065
Maybe we can do
something for you.
314
00:13:27,373 --> 00:13:28,397
Yeah? Like what?
315
00:13:28,474 --> 00:13:30,636

Billy was tough.
322
00:13:52,699 --> 00:13:54,599
There's no way Feo
puts him in a hospital.
323
00:13:56,002 --> 00:13:57,436
So the guard did it.

One of my best men.
327
00:14:09,549 --> 00:14:14,350
Yeah. Ruiz says that Worley fractured
Trammell's skull with his baton.
328
00:14:14,420 --> 00:14:17,355
Have you ever known a con
to tell the truth, huh?
329
00:14:17,423 --> 00:14:19,187
Well, he said that there
was some bad blood
330
00:14:19,258 --> 00:14:21,090
between the officer
and Trammell.
331
00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:24,460
Look, John Worley is old
school, he's by the book.
332
00:14:24,530 --> 00:14:27,659
He is fair, he's consistent,
he doesn't play favorites.
333
00:14:27,734 --> 00:14:29,133
Sounds like a yes to me.
334
00:14:29,202 --> 00:14:31,728
Well, Marsden more or
less confirmed his story.
335
00:14:31,804 --> 00:14:34,535
Marsden.
I'll tell you a story.
336
00:14:35,308 --> 00:14:38,073
Two years ago Marsden had
one of my officers attacked.
337
00:14:38,611 --> 00:14:41,103
Had? You mean,
another inmate did it?

On the outside.
339
00:14:43,082 --> 00:14:45,676
The officer was in his own
driveway, getting out of his car,
340
00:14:45,752 --> 00:14:47,413
and some neo-Nazi
jumped him,
341
00:14:47,487 --> 00:14:49,046
took out his eye
with a screwdriver.
342
00:14:49,722 --> 00:14:51,690
Do you understand
what I'm saying?
343
00:14:52,291 --> 00:14:53,622
Some of these
younger officers
344
00:14:53,693 --> 00:14:56,025
are intimidated
by these Brotherhood thugs.
345
00:14:56,696 --> 00:14:58,130
But not John Worley.
346
00:14:58,231 --> 00:15:00,598
Not John. He won't back
down to these thugs.
347
00:15:02,502 --> 00:15:04,095
Don't you think
that it's odd
348
00:15:04,170 --> 00:15:07,697
that with a cast of characters
like these we're nosing around
349
00:15:07,774 --> 00:15:10,903
a career corrections officer
with an impeccable record?
350
00:15:10,977 --> 00:15:12,240
ED: I'm just saying,
if there's something
351
00:15:12,311 --> 00:15:14,837
between Worley and Trammell,
we ought to look at it.
352
00:15:14,914 --> 00:15:16,404
Check this out.
Three months ago,
353
00:15:16,482 --> 00:15:18,007
Worley's son, Sean,
got popped
354
00:15:18,084 --> 00:15:19,882
in Rockland County
for possession.
355
00:15:20,253 --> 00:15:22,347
How old is his son?
Seventeen.
356
00:15:22,622 --> 00:15:24,181
Half an ounce
of crank in the car.
357
00:15:24,257 --> 00:15:25,918
Don't tell me
he's doing time.
358
00:15:25,992 --> 00:15:27,357
Case is still pending.
359
00:15:29,162 --> 00:15:31,563
All right. Guess it's
time to meet the Worleys.
360
00:15:36,002 --> 00:15:37,993
When I heard
Trammell got killed,
361
00:15:38,070 --> 00:15:39,595
I opened a bottle
of champagne
362
00:15:39,672 --> 00:15:41,367
I'd been saving
for my anniversary.
363
00:15:41,441 --> 00:15:43,842
Yeah, we know he wasn't
one of your favorite cons.
364
00:15:43,910 --> 00:15:45,344
He was a bottom-feeder.
365
00:15:45,411 --> 00:15:47,175
I never wrote him up,
he didn't have it coming.
366
00:15:47,780 --> 00:15:49,509
Feo Ruiz
and Kyle Marsden
367
00:15:49,582 --> 00:15:51,311
claimed that you
busted Trammell's head.
368
00:15:51,384 --> 00:15:54,479
And you believe them?
A couple of convicts?
369
00:15:54,554 --> 00:15:55,851
I didn't say that.
370
00:15:57,056 --> 00:15:58,421
Everything okay, Dad?
371
00:15:58,491 --> 00:16:00,585
Yeah, it's fine.
Just something for work.
372
00:16:00,660 --> 00:16:01,718
This is Sean?
373
00:16:02,395 --> 00:16:04,056
He's got nothing
to do with this.
374
00:16:05,131 --> 00:16:07,657
Yeah, well, we need to know
where you were on Monday night.
375
00:16:08,367 --> 00:16:09,835
He was home
with me. Why?
376
00:16:10,903 --> 00:16:12,234
ED: All night?
377
00:16:12,305 --> 00:16:13,898
Yes, all evening.
All of us.
378
00:16:15,107 --> 00:16:17,474
I went out for beers
after work, first.
379
00:16:17,543 --> 00:16:20,012
Remember, honey?
With another officer.
380
00:16:21,447 --> 00:16:22,846
What time was that?
381
00:16:22,915 --> 00:16:25,782
About 8:00. Takes me
an hour to get home.
382
00:16:25,852 --> 00:16:27,149
He was home by 10:00.
383
00:16:29,121 --> 00:16:31,283
We're gonna need the name
of your drinking buddy.
384
00:16:33,793 --> 00:16:36,319
John and I left work, got to
Disarro's a little before 8:00.
385
00:16:36,395 --> 00:16:38,159
How long did you stay?
386
00:16:38,231 --> 00:16:39,494
A couple of hours,
give or take.
387
00:16:40,166 --> 00:16:41,600
You sound pretty
vague about it.
388
00:16:43,769 --> 00:16:46,602
Why you looking to lay this on a
dedicated corrections officer?
389
00:16:47,306 --> 00:16:50,139
Uh, we're not looking
to lay this on anybody.
390
00:16:51,711 --> 00:16:53,304
You know what
those bastards did?
391
00:16:55,748 --> 00:16:57,238
They flaked John's son.
392
00:16:59,252 --> 00:17:00,276
Are you saying
that the drugs
393
00:17:00,353 --> 00:17:02,583
that the police found in
Sean's car were planted?
394
00:17:02,655 --> 00:17:05,317
I've known this kid forever.
He's like my godson.
395
00:17:05,391 --> 00:17:06,790
He's a straight-A student.
396
00:17:07,960 --> 00:17:10,588
So, were you two together
that night or not?
397
00:17:13,933 --> 00:17:15,332
I'm going home.
398
00:17:18,571 --> 00:17:20,300
We subpoenaed Worley's
EZ-Pass records.
399
00:17:20,373 --> 00:17:22,705
Somebody drove the family car
into the city that night.
400
00:17:22,775 --> 00:17:23,901
Does the timeline fit?
401
00:17:23,976 --> 00:17:25,307
Mmm-hmm.
Coming and going.
402
00:17:25,378 --> 00:17:29,645
He hit the Henry Hudson Bridge
8:45 inbound, 11:58 outbound.
403
00:17:29,715 --> 00:17:31,410
Maybe his wife
or kid used the car.
404
00:17:31,484 --> 00:17:33,509
They both said that they were
home all night, remember?
405
00:17:33,586 --> 00:17:34,951
So, someone's lying.
406
00:17:35,021 --> 00:17:37,547
Or someone else used his car.
Maybe his buddy, Palmer.
407
00:17:37,623 --> 00:17:39,148
Maybe. But,
devil's advocate.
408
00:17:39,225 --> 00:17:40,420
We know that
there's history
409
00:17:40,493 --> 00:17:42,018
between Worley
and Trammell, right?
410
00:17:42,094 --> 00:17:43,892
And Worley believes
that the Brotherhood
411
00:17:43,963 --> 00:17:45,328
set up his son
on a drug bust.
412
00:17:46,065 --> 00:17:49,501
So, after work, Worley gets
some drinks with a pal...
413
00:17:49,569 --> 00:17:51,196
Leaves as soon as
his alibi's established,
414
00:17:51,270 --> 00:17:52,760
which gives him enough time
to drive into the city
415
00:17:52,838 --> 00:17:55,603
and wait until Trammell shows
up at his sister's house.
416
00:17:55,675 --> 00:17:57,439
He sees Trammell
on the street,
417
00:17:57,510 --> 00:18:00,912
three sheets to the wind,
follows him, shoots him.
418
00:18:00,980 --> 00:18:02,744
Steals his wallet to make
it look like a robbery.
419
00:18:03,282 --> 00:18:04,943
Wait a minute, hold on
for a second, will you?
420
00:18:05,017 --> 00:18:06,712
There's a lot of
conjecture, isn't there?
421
00:18:06,786 --> 00:18:08,845
I mean, shouldn't we wait for
something a little more solid?
422
00:18:08,921 --> 00:18:10,650
You saying that just
because he's a C.O.?
423
00:18:10,723 --> 00:18:13,158
I am ready to give a fellow
law enforcement officer,
424
00:18:13,225 --> 00:18:15,353
the same benefit of the
doubt that we would give
425
00:18:15,428 --> 00:18:17,453
any other suspect under
the same circumstances.
426
00:18:17,530 --> 00:18:19,191
We have no gun,
no forensics.
427
00:18:19,332 --> 00:18:21,630
Yeah, but we've got
a pretty good motive.
428
00:18:22,802 --> 00:18:25,828
The DEP did a sewer search near
the scene, came up with a gun.
429
00:18:25,905 --> 00:18:27,873
A nine that disappeared
a couple of months ago
430
00:18:27,940 --> 00:18:30,341
from a Department of
Corrections training center.
431
00:18:30,409 --> 00:18:31,399
Ballistics run it yet?
432
00:18:31,477 --> 00:18:33,343
Yeah, and they matched it to
the slug that killed Trammell.
433
00:18:33,412 --> 00:18:35,312
And one of the prints
on the gun is Worley's.
434
00:18:35,381 --> 00:18:37,577
Does Worleytrain at
this Corrections Center?
435
00:18:38,017 --> 00:18:39,451
He's an instructor there.
436
00:18:39,518 --> 00:18:41,612
Well, it stands to reason that
his prints would be on the gun.
437
00:18:41,721 --> 00:18:42,711
It's still circumstantial.
438
00:18:42,788 --> 00:18:45,189
Yeah, but it's enough
for probable cause.
439
00:18:45,257 --> 00:18:47,191
Look, I know
you'd rather not.
440
00:18:47,259 --> 00:18:49,990
It's fine, Lieutenant.
We'll go pick him up.

you're under arrest

of William Trammell.

"Charge is murder
in the second degree."

How do you plead, Mr. Worley?
452
00:19:31,671 --> 00:19:32,934
Not guilty, Your Honor.
453
00:19:33,005 --> 00:19:34,996
Ms. Southerlyn? The defendant
stalked the victim,
454
00:19:35,074 --> 00:19:37,941
and then executed him with a single
gunshot to the back of his head.
455
00:19:38,010 --> 00:19:39,978
Your Honor, my client has a wife
and two kids in Rockland County.
456
00:19:40,846 --> 00:19:42,177
He has served as
a corrections officer

of 20 years.

Except against the victim.

A rival gang member was convicted
of that assault, Your Honor.

00:19:50,623 --> 00:19:52,921
This victim had
hundreds of enemies
463
00:19:52,992 --> 00:19:54,357
and was a ranking member
of the Brotherhood,
464
00:19:54,427 --> 00:19:55,952
one of the nation's most
vicious prison gangs.
465

Save it for the TV
cameras, Mr. Fallon.

Your Honor, the Brotherhood will
have a contract on my client's head

ten minutes
after he's in a cell.

Your Honor, please don't
put me in the system.

free to request

protective custody,
Your Honor.
471
00:20:07,606 --> 00:20:09,506
Protective custody is
a joke to these people.

I'm sympathetic. What can we
do on bail, Ms. Southerlyn?
473
00:20:12,878 --> 00:20:14,004
For an accused murderer?

FALLON: For a law enforcement
officer with an impeccable record.

00:20:17,149 --> 00:20:18,446
I have a house
I can put up.
476

I'll set bail
at $100,000.

(BANGS GAVEL)
479
00:20:24,957 --> 00:20:27,585
Were there any other
suspects besides Worley?
480
00:20:27,660 --> 00:20:29,992
I'm sure Sing Sing's full
of people who hated Trammell,
481
00:20:30,062 --> 00:20:32,656
but none of them had access
to the murder weapon.
482
00:20:32,732 --> 00:20:35,394
Which was stolen from the Department
of Corrections Training Center.
483
00:20:35,468 --> 00:20:37,232
You can't prove
Worley did that.
484
00:20:37,303 --> 00:20:38,702
His prints
were on the gun.
485
00:20:38,771 --> 00:20:40,500
He's an instructor.
486
00:20:40,573 --> 00:20:43,440
His prints were probably
on most of the weapons.
487
00:20:43,509 --> 00:20:45,773
I'm worried Fallon's gonna
nitpick this to death.
488

Then let's offer him
man one and the minimum.
489
00:20:48,547 --> 00:20:51,107
That doesn't sit well
with me, either.
490
00:20:51,183 --> 00:20:53,743
A feud that started
in Sing Sing,
491
00:20:53,819 --> 00:20:56,345
then ends with
a cold-blooded execution.
492
00:20:56,422 --> 00:20:57,753
That's murder,
not manslaughter.

He's a sympathetic
defendant, Jack.

00:20:59,959 --> 00:21:01,950
The inmate was a member
of the Brotherhood.
495
00:21:02,027 --> 00:21:04,223
That's a pack
of racist psychopaths.
496
00:21:04,730 --> 00:21:06,494
They may have
framed Worley's son.
497
00:21:06,899 --> 00:21:09,561
If it's true,
it proves my point.
498
00:21:10,302 --> 00:21:13,328
There's a pattern of escalating
animosity between these two men.

This is about revenge, Serena.

00:21:17,309 --> 00:21:19,141
I'll find out more
about the drug bust.
501
00:21:20,546 --> 00:21:22,207
SERENA: The arresting
officer said they got a tip
502

that Sean was dealing
drugs from his car

And who do you think
phoned in that tip?

The Brotherhood planted
those drugs in Sean's car.

I'm sure of it.

00:21:30,322 --> 00:21:31,812
But the phone tip
came from a woman.
508
00:21:31,891 --> 00:21:34,223
These guys all have
women on the outside.
509
00:21:34,293 --> 00:21:36,159
They smuggle drugs,
collect money.
510
00:21:36,228 --> 00:21:37,457
How hard would it be
for one of them
511
00:21:37,530 --> 00:21:39,464
to make a phone call
to the State Patrol?
512
00:21:39,532 --> 00:21:40,658
So, if Sean was framed,
513
00:21:40,733 --> 00:21:42,633
do you think Trammell
was behind it?
514
00:21:42,701 --> 00:21:43,793
Yeah.
515
00:21:44,870 --> 00:21:47,134
But Marsden must've signed
off on it first. I mean...
516
00:21:48,107 --> 00:21:50,098
Going after an officer?
That's big.
517
00:21:51,043 --> 00:21:53,034
How did it get so bad
between Trammell and Worley?
518
00:21:53,345 --> 00:21:55,575
Trammell started it. Gassed
him his first week in.
519
00:21:56,715 --> 00:21:57,876
Gassed him?
520
00:21:58,384 --> 00:22:00,318
They throw their feces
and urine through the bars.
521
00:22:00,386 --> 00:22:02,115
In your face, if they can.
522
00:22:02,988 --> 00:22:04,717
Nice. So what did Worley do?
523
00:22:06,292 --> 00:22:07,691
Wrote him up,
sent him to the hole.
524
00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:09,194
What else can he do?
525
00:22:09,261 --> 00:22:11,229
You can't take that stuff lying
down, they'll walk all over you.
526
00:22:11,797 --> 00:22:13,322
And it escalated
from there?
527
00:22:14,033 --> 00:22:16,502
Trammell threatened to
kill him, Ms. Southerlyn.
528
00:22:17,369 --> 00:22:19,463
He threatened
John's whole family.
529
00:22:19,538 --> 00:22:21,632
There were phone calls,
anonymous letters,
530
00:22:22,174 --> 00:22:24,074
pictures of the kids
in the mail,
531
00:22:24,543 --> 00:22:25,874
taken at school.
532
00:22:26,178 --> 00:22:27,236
The Brotherhood?
533
00:22:27,313 --> 00:22:29,748
You bet. Then the
drug thing with Sean.
534
00:22:30,783 --> 00:22:32,615
John was scared to death.
535
00:22:32,685 --> 00:22:35,916
I mean, if they could get to his
family like that, that easily...
536
00:22:38,090 --> 00:22:39,785
JACK: IfWorley was
really afraid of them,
537
00:22:39,859 --> 00:22:42,658
why didn't he go to his
superiors or the police?
538
00:22:42,728 --> 00:22:43,786
What good would it do?
539
00:22:43,863 --> 00:22:45,661
These people are beyond
anyone's control, Jack.
540
00:22:45,731 --> 00:22:48,029
You can't punish them,
you can't threaten them,
541
00:22:48,100 --> 00:22:49,864
they're not afraid
to go to prison.
542
00:22:49,935 --> 00:22:51,994
In many ways,
they actually prefer it.
543
00:22:52,071 --> 00:22:54,005
Supposedly, Trammell couldn't
go afterWorley
544
00:22:54,073 --> 00:22:56,804
(SIGHS) without Kyle
Marsden's approval?
545
00:22:56,876 --> 00:22:58,207
That's correct.
546
00:22:59,511 --> 00:23:00,910
Find out if he had it.
547
00:23:01,580 --> 00:23:02,809
HOW?
548
00:23:02,882 --> 00:23:04,043
You ask Kyle Marsden.
549
00:23:04,116 --> 00:23:05,709
(LAUGHS) What's he
gonna do? Tell us?
550
00:23:05,784 --> 00:23:08,151
No. But we should at least
take a look at him.
551
00:23:08,220 --> 00:23:10,746
Find out if he's as scary
as everyone says he is.
552
00:23:18,230 --> 00:23:20,358
I'm Jack McCoy.
This is A.D.A. Southerlyn.
553
00:23:23,903 --> 00:23:24,995
Hi, honey.
554
00:23:26,305 --> 00:23:28,535
Let's get right to the point, Mr.
Marsden.
555
00:23:28,641 --> 00:23:30,439
I want to know
if the Brotherhood
556
00:23:30,509 --> 00:23:32,534
had a contract out
on John Worley.
557
00:23:33,012 --> 00:23:35,606
(LAUGHS) Hey,
I've got to thank you.
558
00:23:35,681 --> 00:23:36,944
I really appreciate
the trip to the city.
559
00:23:37,016 --> 00:23:38,279
I made a lot of new
friends down here.
560
00:23:38,350 --> 00:23:40,614
I want an answer to the question, Mr.
Marsden.
561
00:23:43,722 --> 00:23:44,917
Shouldn't my lawyer be here?
562
00:23:46,258 --> 00:23:48,192
You're not a suspect in the
death of Billy Trammell.
563
00:23:48,260 --> 00:23:49,455
This isn't a custodial
interrogation.
564
00:23:54,900 --> 00:23:56,163
It's not custodial?
565
00:23:58,704 --> 00:24:02,163
You're free to return to Sing Sing at
any time. Should I call the guard?
566
00:24:05,177 --> 00:24:06,542
So what's in it for me?
567
00:24:08,747 --> 00:24:09,908
Nothing.
568
00:24:16,822 --> 00:24:18,517
Let's put it this way,
569
00:24:18,590 --> 00:24:21,924
if there was a kite out on
Worley, it's been rescinded.
570
00:24:25,998 --> 00:24:27,659
Why is that, Mr. Marsden?
571
00:24:29,268 --> 00:24:31,999
Because the only thing
sweeter than a dead C.O.
572
00:24:32,071 --> 00:24:33,971
is one on my side
of the bars.
573
00:24:35,040 --> 00:24:37,099
That's a gift that
just keeps on giving.
574
00:24:51,357 --> 00:24:54,554
Call Worley's lawyer. I want a
sit-down as soon as possible.
575
00:24:54,626 --> 00:24:55,991
What are we gonna say?
576
00:24:56,595 --> 00:24:58,723
We're gonna
offer him a plea.
577
00:24:58,797 --> 00:25:00,390
Why the change
of heart?
578
00:25:01,033 --> 00:25:05,129
You convinced me.
You and Marsden.
579
00:25:08,007 --> 00:25:10,135
So, the gravity of my
client's situation
580
00:25:10,209 --> 00:25:12,234
is finally sinking in
with you people.
581
00:25:12,311 --> 00:25:14,040
He still made a bad choice, Mr.
Fallon.
582
00:25:14,246 --> 00:25:16,943
An imperfect one, in a
far from perfect world.
583
00:25:17,349 --> 00:25:19,078
Now, what are you
going to do about it?
584
00:25:19,151 --> 00:25:20,277
Man one.
585
00:25:20,352 --> 00:25:21,581
That's a minimum
of five years.
586
00:25:21,653 --> 00:25:22,916
I'm sure we can
make an arrangement
587
00:25:22,988 --> 00:25:25,685
so your client serves his
time in the Federal system.
588
00:25:26,358 --> 00:25:28,759
You don't get it. The
Brotherhood is everywhere.
589
00:25:28,827 --> 00:25:30,295
Especially in
the Federal system.
590
00:25:30,362 --> 00:25:32,888
So tell me, Mr. Fallon,
what's your Plan B?
591
00:25:32,965 --> 00:25:35,832
If he's convicted at trial, he
serves at least 15-to-life.
592
00:25:38,237 --> 00:25:41,207
I have an idea. You know,
the way I look at it,
593
00:25:41,273 --> 00:25:43,867
my client has performed a service
for the citizens of this city.
594
00:25:44,376 --> 00:25:46,674
I'd choose my words very
carefully, M r. Fallon.
595
00:25:48,447 --> 00:25:50,040
My client's out on bail.
596
00:25:50,115 --> 00:25:51,708
There's no rush
to try this.
597
00:25:51,784 --> 00:25:54,276
A year down the road,
I file a speedy trial motion
598
00:25:54,353 --> 00:25:55,445
and the judge
dismisses the case.
599
00:25:56,588 --> 00:25:58,818
I invited you down here
because I sympathized
600
00:25:58,891 --> 00:26:00,120
with your client's
situation.
601
00:26:00,192 --> 00:26:01,626
And I'm trying to
save a man's life.
602
00:26:01,693 --> 00:26:03,627
The answer is
no, Mr. Fallon.
603
00:26:06,498 --> 00:26:08,865
I don't understand. Why
won't you accept man one?
604
00:26:10,702 --> 00:26:12,431
I believe
we can do better.
605
00:26:12,504 --> 00:26:14,905
I'll be asserting justification
at my client's trial.
606
00:26:15,874 --> 00:26:17,467
Preemptive self-defense?
607
00:26:17,543 --> 00:26:18,806
FALLON: What would you do?
608
00:26:19,545 --> 00:26:22,446
Wait for these monsters to
rape and murder your family?
609
00:26:26,852 --> 00:26:28,047
(DOOR OPENING)
610
00:26:31,723 --> 00:26:33,851
FALLON: These threats
were credible, Your Honor.
611
00:26:33,926 --> 00:26:35,291
Letters, photos,
phone calls...
612
00:26:35,360 --> 00:26:36,885
A member of the Brotherhood
even approached
613
00:26:36,962 --> 00:26:38,555
the Worleys' 11-year-old
daughter at school.
614
00:26:38,797 --> 00:26:39,992
Allegedly.
615
00:26:40,065 --> 00:26:42,693
The law's clear, a person
may use deadly force
616
00:26:42,768 --> 00:26:44,293
only if he
reasonably believes
617
00:26:44,369 --> 00:26:46,736
the other person is
about to do the same.
618
00:26:46,805 --> 00:26:50,105
While I do find these alleged
incidents you described disturbing,
619
00:26:50,175 --> 00:26:52,007
Mr. Fallon, I agree
with Mr. McCoy,
620
00:26:52,077 --> 00:26:53,442
the threat has
to be imminent.
621
00:26:53,512 --> 00:26:56,413
Well, the issue here is whether my
client believed it was imminent.
622
00:26:56,482 --> 00:26:58,576
This is analogous to battered-spouse
syndrome, YourHonoL
623
00:26:58,650 --> 00:27:01,381
Battered-spouse syndrome?
Mr. Fallon!
624
00:27:01,453 --> 00:27:03,649
There's a clear pattern of
violence and intimidation here.
625
00:27:03,722 --> 00:27:06,214
John Worley lived his life in
constant fear of what Billy Trammell
626
00:27:06,291 --> 00:27:08,783
and his associates could and
would do to him and his family.
627
00:27:08,861 --> 00:27:12,798
Billy Trammell was incarcerated.
John Worley was free.
628
00:27:12,865 --> 00:27:14,663
To find a new job,
to move his family,
629
00:27:14,733 --> 00:27:16,531
to seek the assistance
of the courts
630
00:27:16,602 --> 00:27:18,001
and the police
if he felt threatened.
631
00:27:18,070 --> 00:27:20,266
John Worley felt like he could not
get help from the authorities,
632
00:27:20,339 --> 00:27:22,603
and that he could not get away from
Billy Trammell and the Brotherhood,
633
00:27:22,674 --> 00:27:24,267
inside the prison or out.
634
00:27:24,343 --> 00:27:25,811
He felt the Brotherhood
would find him,
635
00:27:25,878 --> 00:27:26,936
hunt him down,
no matter where he went.
636
00:27:28,447 --> 00:27:32,543
Your client's subjective belief about
the danger is one thing, Mr. Fallon.
637
00:27:32,618 --> 00:27:35,485
But the law also requires that
that belief be objectively
638
00:27:35,554 --> 00:27:37,283
reasonable under
the circumstances.
639
00:27:37,356 --> 00:27:39,381
I have 109
incident reports
640
00:27:39,458 --> 00:27:41,153
from the New York State
Department of Corrections,
641
00:27:41,226 --> 00:27:43,718
which document violence
perpetrated by the Brotherhood
642
00:27:43,795 --> 00:27:44,887
in the last five years.
643
00:27:44,963 --> 00:27:47,830
And these are only the ones that were
reported. The tip of the iceberg.
644
00:27:47,900 --> 00:27:49,891
JACK: No one denies the
Brotherhood is dangerous.
645
00:27:49,968 --> 00:27:52,266
The issue is whether the
defendant was allowed to make
646
00:27:52,337 --> 00:27:55,329
an anticipatory strike against
one of their members.
647
00:27:55,407 --> 00:27:57,739
And hundreds of years
of jurisprudence say no.
648
00:27:57,809 --> 00:27:59,868
A hundred years ago
there was no Brotherhood.
649
00:27:59,945 --> 00:28:01,470
How long are you supposed
to stand on the tracks
650
00:28:01,547 --> 00:28:03,015
with a freight train
coming at you?
651
00:28:05,884 --> 00:28:07,943
Mr. Fallon's argument is a
convincing one, Mr. McCoy.
652
00:28:08,020 --> 00:28:09,249
This is how the law evolves.
653
00:28:10,055 --> 00:28:12,149
The defendant's belief may
well have been objectively
654
00:28:12,224 --> 00:28:14,090
reasonable under
the circumstances.
655
00:28:15,260 --> 00:28:18,719
It's pushing the envelope, but I'm
going to let the issue go to the jury.
656
00:28:26,838 --> 00:28:29,170
Officer Worley
wrote up Billy Trammell
657
00:28:29,241 --> 00:28:31,972
for prison infractions
31 times.
658
00:28:32,044 --> 00:28:34,536
And the next highest
total Trammell received
659
00:28:34,613 --> 00:28:36,672
from any other corrections
officer was what?
660
00:28:37,115 --> 00:28:38,241
Ten.
661
00:28:39,351 --> 00:28:41,410
How do you account
for the discrepancy?
662
00:28:42,321 --> 00:28:45,382
Trammell was a hardcore
criminal who flouted the rules.
663
00:28:45,457 --> 00:28:46,754
John Worley
did his job.
664
00:28:47,326 --> 00:28:49,522
How would you characterize
their interaction?
665
00:28:51,029 --> 00:28:52,155
It was hostile.
666
00:28:52,231 --> 00:28:54,256
JACK: Would you go so
far as to call it a feud?
667
00:28:54,333 --> 00:28:55,528
You might.
668
00:28:55,601 --> 00:28:57,695
And yet, none
of Officer Worley's
669
00:28:57,769 --> 00:29:01,330
disciplinary write-ups mention
any threats by Trammell
670
00:29:01,406 --> 00:29:04,000
directed at Worley
or his family, do they?
671
00:29:04,076 --> 00:29:05,168
No.
672
00:29:09,548 --> 00:29:12,347
Is it unusual for an inmate
to threaten a guard's life?
673
00:29:12,417 --> 00:29:13,612
Not at all.
674
00:29:14,052 --> 00:29:15,042
Part of the job?
675
00:29:15,120 --> 00:29:16,144
Sure.
676
00:29:16,221 --> 00:29:18,121
And what is the procedure
to be followed
677
00:29:18,190 --> 00:29:20,352
when a corrections officer
receives such a threat?
678
00:29:20,425 --> 00:29:23,759
Well, the C.O.'s are supposed to report
the threat immediately to my office
679
00:29:23,829 --> 00:29:25,957
so it can be documented
and assessed.
680
00:29:26,431 --> 00:29:28,900
Violence against corrections
officers is on the rise
681
00:29:28,967 --> 00:29:31,368
in the last 10 years, isn't that
correct, Superintendent Cooper?
682
00:29:31,436 --> 00:29:32,460
Yes, it is.
683
00:29:32,537 --> 00:29:33,561
Corrections officers
jumped and beaten.
684
00:29:34,640 --> 00:29:36,665
Well, they're not
allowed to have guns
685
00:29:36,742 --> 00:29:38,870
inside the facilities,
for obvious reasons,
686
00:29:38,944 --> 00:29:40,378
but assaults are frequent.
687
00:29:40,445 --> 00:29:43,346
How many corrections officers
in the New York State system
688
00:29:43,415 --> 00:29:45,884
have been assaulted by Brotherhood
members this year alone?
689
00:29:45,951 --> 00:29:48,147
I know of three C.O.'s
who've been stabbed.
690
00:29:48,220 --> 00:29:50,382
And last year
we had a fatality.
691
00:29:50,455 --> 00:29:54,653
The Brotherhood member who killed
that guard is on death row right now.
692
00:29:54,726 --> 00:29:55,921
FALLON: A dangerous job.
693
00:29:55,994 --> 00:29:57,758
Most of us are proud
of what we do.
694
00:29:57,829 --> 00:29:59,763
Including John Worley?
695
00:29:59,831 --> 00:30:00,889
Very much so.
696
00:30:04,269 --> 00:30:06,294
We got into a fight,
me and Trammell,
697
00:30:06,371 --> 00:30:09,830
and then Marsden jumped in
and started stomping me.
698
00:30:09,908 --> 00:30:11,501
What did Officer
Worley do?
699
00:30:11,943 --> 00:30:13,035
He broke it up.
700
00:30:13,111 --> 00:30:14,135
HOW?
701
00:30:14,546 --> 00:30:16,378
Cracked Trammell over the
head a couple of times.
702
00:30:16,448 --> 00:30:17,779
Put him in the hospital.
703
00:30:17,849 --> 00:30:19,874
Did he strike you
or Mr. Marsden?
704
00:30:20,552 --> 00:30:22,077
No, no, just Trammell.
705
00:30:23,588 --> 00:30:25,215
Why do you think
he struck Trammell
706
00:30:25,290 --> 00:30:26,780
and not you
or Mr. Marsden?
707
00:30:26,858 --> 00:30:29,293
He hated Trammell,
and Trammell hated him.
708
00:30:29,361 --> 00:30:32,558
JACK: How often do you get into
fights with Brotherhood members?
709
00:30:32,631 --> 00:30:34,099
It happens all the time.
710
00:30:34,566 --> 00:30:35,931
You're not afraid of them?
711
00:30:36,068 --> 00:30:38,935
I'm not afraid of anyone.
They afraid of me.
712
00:30:39,938 --> 00:30:43,203
Did it appear to you that Officer
Worley was afraid of Mr. Trammel?
713
00:30:43,275 --> 00:30:44,765
No, he never showed fear.
714
00:30:45,977 --> 00:30:47,809
Not like some of the screws.
715
00:30:51,016 --> 00:30:54,042
You were convicted of fracturing Mr.
Trammel's skull.
716
00:30:54,119 --> 00:30:55,587
It's my word
against a guard.
717
00:30:55,654 --> 00:30:59,215
And you yourself are a member
of a gang, the Latin Kings.
718
00:30:59,825 --> 00:31:01,919
Yeah. King for life.
719
00:31:02,527 --> 00:31:04,154
You treat C.O.'s
with respect?
720
00:31:04,763 --> 00:31:06,197
They give it,
they get it.
721
00:31:06,832 --> 00:31:08,561
That's why you've been
written up over 50 times
722
00:31:08,633 --> 00:31:10,158
by a dozen
different officers?
723
00:31:11,069 --> 00:31:12,434
My client ever
write you up?
724
00:31:12,504 --> 00:31:13,869
(CHUCKLING) Yeah. yeah.
725
00:31:13,939 --> 00:31:16,374
How many times? I don't know.
A dozen maybe.
726
00:31:16,441 --> 00:31:18,637
It's like I say,
he was a real hardass.
727
00:31:18,710 --> 00:31:21,680
So this testimony of yours today could
be considered payback, couldn't it?
728
00:31:21,747 --> 00:31:23,442
Objection!
ANDERLEE: Sustained!
729
00:31:32,224 --> 00:31:33,919
Counsel, in my chambers.
730
00:31:35,694 --> 00:31:37,662
This was addressed to me.
731
00:31:37,729 --> 00:31:40,198
IfWorley gets off,
your dead.
732
00:31:44,770 --> 00:31:46,932
Court officer said it was left
in the gallery by a woman.
733
00:31:48,006 --> 00:31:50,338
You should have the police
take custody of the note.
734
00:31:50,409 --> 00:31:52,138
They've already been called.
735
00:31:52,477 --> 00:31:54,571
And what are we going
to do about the trial?
736
00:31:54,646 --> 00:31:57,775
We're adjourned for today. I'll
meet with counsel tomorrow at 9:30.
737
00:32:01,887 --> 00:32:03,548
Your life just
changed forever.
738
00:32:03,622 --> 00:32:04,714
I know.
739
00:32:04,790 --> 00:32:08,556
You could recuse yourself, declare a
mistrial. It is manifest necessity.
740
00:32:08,760 --> 00:32:10,353
You know I'm not going
to do that, Arthur.
741
00:32:10,429 --> 00:32:12,989
All defendants would have
to do is threaten judges
742
00:32:13,064 --> 00:32:14,998
until they get
the one they want.
743
00:32:15,066 --> 00:32:16,431
It's bad enough
in the jails and prisons.
744
00:32:16,501 --> 00:32:19,493
If we give away the entire criminal
justice system, what's the point?
745
00:32:19,571 --> 00:32:20,834
You're right.
746
00:32:20,906 --> 00:32:24,035
I'm sure you've been the recipient of
a threat at some time in your career.
747
00:32:24,109 --> 00:32:25,201
Once or twice.
748
00:32:25,277 --> 00:32:26,403
Did it stop you?
749
00:32:26,478 --> 00:32:29,106
Did you ever ask another
prosecutor to take over a case?
750
00:32:29,181 --> 00:32:31,980
Just because I'm hard-headed
doesn't mean you have to be.
751
00:32:32,050 --> 00:32:33,609
You know
it's not about that.
752
00:32:33,685 --> 00:32:35,710
Well, the defense is not
going to be very happy.
753
00:32:35,787 --> 00:32:38,085
Oh, crocodile tears. They
know better than anybody
754
00:32:38,156 --> 00:32:39,988
I'll bend over
backwards to be fair.
755
00:32:44,796 --> 00:32:46,161
You have to
recuse yourself, Judge.
756
00:32:46,231 --> 00:32:47,665
I intend to call
you as a witness.
757
00:32:47,732 --> 00:32:49,063
Excuse me?
758
00:32:49,134 --> 00:32:51,626
My whole case is based on how
dangerous the Brotherhood is.
759
00:32:51,703 --> 00:32:53,034
You've been threatened.
That's relevant.
760
00:32:53,104 --> 00:32:54,799
The note left
in the courtroom
761
00:32:54,873 --> 00:32:57,843
can't be definitively
attributed to the Brotherhood.
762
00:32:57,909 --> 00:32:59,206
Save your breath,
Mr. McCoy.
763
00:32:59,277 --> 00:33:01,905
The note is off-limits
at this trial, Mr. Fallon.
764
00:33:01,980 --> 00:33:04,347
Well, then I intend to call
Kyle Marsden as awitness.
765
00:33:04,416 --> 00:33:05,941
He has nothing to
do with this case.
766
00:33:06,017 --> 00:33:08,145
What's your offer
of proof, Mr. Fallon?
767
00:33:08,220 --> 00:33:10,951
Billy Trammell threatened the lives
of my client and his family.
768
00:33:11,389 --> 00:33:13,915
The only person who could authorize
him to do that was his gang boss.
769
00:33:13,992 --> 00:33:17,189
Marsden's testimony is not only
irrelevant, it's prejudicial.
770
00:33:17,262 --> 00:33:20,095
The man is a walking billboard
for hate and intimidation.
771
00:33:20,165 --> 00:33:22,395
I need to paint the enormity
of the Brotherhood's reach
772
00:33:22,467 --> 00:33:24,060
in order to show that my
client's fear wasjustified.
773
00:33:24,135 --> 00:33:26,661
I'm entitled to make the best
case for my client, Your Honor.
774
00:33:26,738 --> 00:33:29,901
Marsden poses
a serious security risk.
775
00:33:29,975 --> 00:33:32,672
I understand
your concern, Mr. McCoy.
776
00:33:32,744 --> 00:33:34,974
But the potential
prejudice is far outweighed
777
00:33:35,046 --> 00:33:38,380
by Mr. Worley's right to call
witnesses in support of his case.
778
00:33:42,754 --> 00:33:44,779
I've been incarcerated
since '91.
779
00:33:44,856 --> 00:33:47,018
I'm serving five
consecutive life sentences.
780
00:33:47,225 --> 00:33:49,250
FALLON: One for kidnapping,
four for murder.
781
00:33:49,327 --> 00:33:50,954
Yeah, something
like that.
782
00:33:51,630 --> 00:33:54,099
Are you a member of an organization
called the Brotherhood?
783
00:33:54,165 --> 00:33:55,462
MARSDEN: That's right.
784
00:33:55,867 --> 00:33:57,426
What sort
of organization is it?
785
00:33:58,169 --> 00:34:00,968
It's a support group,
for the Caucasian inmates.
786
00:34:01,373 --> 00:34:03,398
(SCOFFS)
It's a prison gang.
787
00:34:03,475 --> 00:34:06,103
Responsible for over 100
reported acts of violence
788
00:34:06,177 --> 00:34:07,941
in Sing Sing over
the past two years.
789
00:34:08,647 --> 00:34:10,137
Not to mention
many murders,
790
00:34:10,215 --> 00:34:13,412
and countless other crimes
in prisons nationwide.
791
00:34:13,818 --> 00:34:15,786
Yeah, I wouldn't know
about any of that.
792
00:34:15,887 --> 00:34:18,515
Are you acquainted with a
man named Billy Trammell?
793
00:34:18,590 --> 00:34:19,682
Yes, sir.
794
00:34:19,758 --> 00:34:21,692
Isn't it a fact,
Mr. Marsden,
795
00:34:21,993 --> 00:34:24,985
that you authorized Mr.
Trammell to murder my client?
796
00:34:31,236 --> 00:34:35,298
Your Honor, would you instruct Mr.
Marsden to answer the question?
797
00:34:35,373 --> 00:34:37,171
Your answer, Mr. Marsden.
798
00:34:39,377 --> 00:34:42,005
What are you gonna do, Judge?
Hold me in contempt?
799
00:34:43,949 --> 00:34:45,110
Consider it done.
800
00:34:46,251 --> 00:34:48,185
Ooh, are you sure
you want to do that?
801
00:34:50,989 --> 00:34:53,321
Are you threatening
me, Mr. Marsden?
802
00:34:54,125 --> 00:34:56,059
Why would I want to
threaten you, Judge?
803
00:34:58,129 --> 00:35:00,393
You wouldn't if you know
what's good for you.
804
00:35:07,539 --> 00:35:09,598
FALLON: No further
questions, YourHonoL
805
00:35:30,161 --> 00:35:34,394
My job was to supervise
convicted, violent felons.
806
00:35:34,466 --> 00:35:37,197
Most of the time I was
outnumbered 40-to-one.
807
00:35:37,268 --> 00:35:38,929
I didn't even get
to carry a gun.
808
00:35:39,004 --> 00:35:40,972
And the inmates?
Are they armed?
809
00:35:41,039 --> 00:35:45,203
Sharpened pieces of glass,
filed-down spoons, metal spikes.
810
00:35:45,276 --> 00:35:47,870
You ought to see the shiv
museum at Sing Sing sometime.
811
00:35:47,946 --> 00:35:50,176
They'll fashion a weapon out of
anything that'll hold a point.
812
00:35:50,248 --> 00:35:51,409
Atoothbrush.
813
00:35:51,483 --> 00:35:54,282
There's been testimony that
you were hard on the inmates.
814
00:35:54,352 --> 00:35:57,913
I enforced the rules.
My job was about control.
815
00:35:57,989 --> 00:36:01,220
You lose control of the bad
guys, you can get hurt.
816
00:36:01,292 --> 00:36:02,953
Was Billy Trammell
one of those guys?
817
00:36:03,028 --> 00:36:05,087
Billy Trammell
had been bragging
818
00:36:05,163 --> 00:36:07,825
that he was going to get me
for a couple of years.
819
00:36:07,899 --> 00:36:10,561
I didn't take him
seriously at first,
820
00:36:11,136 --> 00:36:14,128
until he was
going to be paroled.
821
00:36:14,205 --> 00:36:17,402
And then he told me it would
be just that much easier
822
00:36:17,475 --> 00:36:19,307
to forget about me
and do my family instead.
823
00:36:20,278 --> 00:36:21,871
"Do" meaning kill?
824
00:36:21,946 --> 00:36:23,471
And worse.
825
00:36:24,516 --> 00:36:26,314
And when I found a photograph
that had been taken
826
00:36:26,384 --> 00:36:28,512
of my wife and kids
slipped under my door...
827
00:36:31,489 --> 00:36:33,355
Then, my son Sean
was arrested,
828
00:36:33,792 --> 00:36:36,386
framed by Trammell and his
buddies in the Brotherhood.
829
00:36:37,162 --> 00:36:39,688
What happened to Sean
as a result of this arrest?
830
00:36:39,764 --> 00:36:42,495
He's being prosecuted now.
Rockland County.
831
00:36:43,234 --> 00:36:45,862
What transpired the last time
you saw Trammell in prison?
832
00:36:45,937 --> 00:36:47,427
They were taking him
down for release,
833
00:36:47,505 --> 00:36:50,440
he passed by me,
and he said,
834
00:36:50,942 --> 00:36:53,877
"Tell Dina I'll be
seeing her very soon."
835
00:36:53,945 --> 00:36:55,379
And then
he licked his lips.
836
00:36:55,447 --> 00:36:56,710
Dina?
837
00:36:57,315 --> 00:36:58,339
My wife.
838
00:36:59,217 --> 00:37:02,812
Got home that night, my daughter,
Carrie, my 11-year-old,
839
00:37:03,455 --> 00:37:06,857
she told me that some big guy
with long hair and tattoos,
840
00:37:06,925 --> 00:37:10,828
had approached her at her
school, called her by her name,
841
00:37:10,895 --> 00:37:12,920
and told her to
tell her father
842
00:37:12,997 --> 00:37:15,796
that Uncle Billy would be
coming to visit her very soon.
843
00:37:16,735 --> 00:37:19,329
What did you do the day Billy
Trammell was released?
844
00:37:19,404 --> 00:37:20,997
I moved my family
into a motel.
845
00:37:21,072 --> 00:37:22,164
Why?
846
00:37:22,240 --> 00:37:23,901
I was afraid
for their lives.
847
00:37:25,643 --> 00:37:29,273
And then I gave my son
Sean my .38, just in case,
848
00:37:29,914 --> 00:37:31,404
and I went
looking for Trammell.
849
00:37:32,784 --> 00:37:34,183
Did you kill him, John?
850
00:37:36,221 --> 00:37:37,416
Yes, I did.
851
00:37:38,289 --> 00:37:40,485
Before he could get
to my wife and kids.
852
00:37:47,932 --> 00:37:49,730
You thought
you were justified
853
00:37:49,801 --> 00:37:52,099
in taking matters
into your own hands?
854
00:37:52,904 --> 00:37:54,030
Yes.
855
00:37:56,474 --> 00:37:59,910
Was Billy Trammell
that imminent a threat?
856
00:38:00,612 --> 00:38:01,704
He was.
857
00:38:01,780 --> 00:38:05,683
You stole the murder weapon two
months before Trammell was released.
858
00:38:06,751 --> 00:38:07,843
Isn't that right?
859
00:38:08,620 --> 00:38:10,110
I was preparing myself.
860
00:38:11,189 --> 00:38:14,215
On a street, Trammell was a
danger to me and my family,
861
00:38:14,292 --> 00:38:15,623
24 hours a day.
862
00:38:15,693 --> 00:38:19,152
Really? When you put the gun to the
back of Billy Trammell's head,
863
00:38:21,199 --> 00:38:23,395
at that moment, were you
in any danger from him?
864
00:38:24,269 --> 00:38:27,102
No. Not at that
precise moment.
865
00:38:27,172 --> 00:38:29,038
I was in control
of the situation.
866
00:38:29,641 --> 00:38:32,576
Your family was in a motel
when you shot Billy Trammell.
867
00:38:32,644 --> 00:38:35,636
Were they in any danger
from him at that point?
868
00:38:35,713 --> 00:38:38,739
The only step that guaranteed
the safety of my family
869
00:38:38,817 --> 00:38:40,080
was to kill him.
870
00:38:40,151 --> 00:38:41,414
There was no other choice.
871
00:38:41,486 --> 00:38:42,715
No other choice?
872
00:38:42,787 --> 00:38:47,315
Had you reported Billy Trammell's
threats to the authorities,
873
00:38:47,392 --> 00:38:52,228
they would have constituted
violation of his parole.
874
00:38:58,903 --> 00:39:01,838
You could've put him back
into prison, Officer Worley.
875
00:39:03,408 --> 00:39:04,569
You didn't.
876
00:39:06,711 --> 00:39:08,736
You chose to
kill him instead.
877
00:39:24,863 --> 00:39:28,094
John Worley put his life
on the line every day
878
00:39:28,766 --> 00:39:31,326
to protect us
from society's worst.
879
00:39:32,537 --> 00:39:34,130
He and his family
880
00:39:34,205 --> 00:39:36,799
were targeted by a
hyper-violent prison gang
881
00:39:37,842 --> 00:39:39,469
with a well-earned
reputation
882
00:39:39,844 --> 00:39:44,543
for intimidation,
depravity, and murder.
883
00:39:46,484 --> 00:39:50,682
We'd all like to believe that our
system of law will protect us.
884
00:39:53,691 --> 00:39:55,523
But if you knew
ahead of time
885
00:39:55,593 --> 00:39:57,288
that Charles Manson
and his cohorts
886
00:39:57,362 --> 00:39:59,057
were coming after
you and your family,
887
00:40:00,131 --> 00:40:02,099
wouldn't you all do
something about it?
888
00:40:04,335 --> 00:40:07,669
John Worley did exactly
what he had to do.
889
00:40:14,245 --> 00:40:17,044
For hundreds of years, our
concept of self-defense
890
00:40:18,216 --> 00:40:20,241
has been rooted
in the idea
891
00:40:20,318 --> 00:40:24,186
that the threat defended
against must be imminent.
892
00:40:25,823 --> 00:40:30,283
The knife drawn, the hammer
raised, the gun cocked.
893
00:40:31,562 --> 00:40:36,898
Deadly force only in response to the
imminent threat of deadly force.
894
00:40:38,202 --> 00:40:41,866
It's a bright line, and there's
a reason we don't cross it.
895
00:40:42,640 --> 00:40:48,010
We cannot ascertain
motive after the fact.
896
00:40:49,080 --> 00:40:51,572
We can't know what was
in Billy Trammell's mind.
897
00:40:51,649 --> 00:40:55,279
We can't know if the
Brotherhood's threats were real.
898
00:40:55,353 --> 00:40:58,584
And we can't ask him now, because
he's dead. John Worley killed him.
899
00:41:00,158 --> 00:41:04,561
Before Trammell and these
allegations could be investigated.
900
00:41:05,563 --> 00:41:07,759
These threats
were not imminent.
901
00:41:09,400 --> 00:41:13,735
John Worley says he had no choice
but to kill Billy Trammell.
902
00:41:13,805 --> 00:41:17,571
We know that's not true.
He had options.
903
00:41:18,376 --> 00:41:20,208
He didn't choose them.
904
00:41:20,912 --> 00:41:23,244
His motive was not fear.
905
00:41:25,783 --> 00:41:27,251
It was revenge.
906
00:41:29,320 --> 00:41:33,553
Revenge for what he thought
Trammell did to him,
907
00:41:33,624 --> 00:41:35,456
his son, his daughter.
908
00:41:37,328 --> 00:41:41,162
And putting Trammell back into
prison wasn't going to be enough
909
00:41:41,232 --> 00:41:44,998
to satisfy his hunger
for retribution.
910
00:41:48,740 --> 00:41:50,606
Only murdering him was.
911
00:42:09,193 --> 00:42:11,389
Ladies and gentlemen
of the jury, I understand
912
00:42:11,462 --> 00:42:13,658
you're unable to reach a verdict.
Is that correct?
913
00:42:14,732 --> 00:42:15,824
That's right, Your Honor.
914
00:42:16,701 --> 00:42:19,932
Are you certain you've made your
best faith efforts to do so?
915
00:42:20,004 --> 00:42:21,165
I believe we have,
Your Honor.
916
00:42:21,239 --> 00:42:23,207
We're unable to
come to any consensus.
917
00:42:27,278 --> 00:42:29,372
Given the length
of your deliberations
918
00:42:29,447 --> 00:42:31,142
and your best
faith efforts,
919
00:42:31,215 --> 00:42:34,446
I have no choice but to
declare a hung jury.
920
00:42:34,519 --> 00:42:35,884
(GASPING)
921
00:42:36,621 --> 00:42:39,318
Ladies and gentlemen of the jury,
thank you for your service.
922
00:42:39,390 --> 00:42:41,984
Clear the courtroom, please.
Clear the courtroom.
923
00:43:01,212 --> 00:43:02,737
Well, we shouldn't
be shocked.
924
00:43:02,814 --> 00:43:05,146
Thejuryjust put themselves
in Worley's shoes.
925
00:43:05,683 --> 00:43:07,879
What are your thoughts
on re-filing?
926
00:43:07,952 --> 00:43:09,681
I'm not sure
we'd do any better.
927
00:43:10,521 --> 00:43:12,683
How's Judge Anderlee
holding up, Arthur?
928
00:43:12,757 --> 00:43:14,350
Keeping a stiff upper lip,
929
00:43:14,425 --> 00:43:17,588
and two veteran New York City
detectives on their toes.
930
00:43:17,662 --> 00:43:19,994
We just got a call from the
Rockland County Police Department.
931
00:43:21,165 --> 00:43:22,724
Something happen to Worley?
932
00:43:25,403 --> 00:43:27,064
His wife. She's missing.
