Original subtitles

Attention, Gutiérrez.

I was in my house and I heard something.

I heard something strange.

And after…

Then I heard a shot and the dogs started barking.

This new police case has caused a big commotion,

where Tomás Ruiz…

Never before in Chile's history,

has a person with Down syndrome been charged

for a crime of this magnitude.

Stop! Police!

…a 48-year-old employee

had a bullet wound in his chest cavity.

Put your hands up!

Objection, Your Honor.

The defense is making arguments

that are used for children and adolescents.

Tomás is 26 years old.

Mom!

Tommy is nice, cool and very happy.

-I miss you a lot. -Me too.

Mama!

CHROMOSOME 21

Everything was very dark.

You couldn't see anything.

I saw the weapon.

I told him to put it down

multiple times.

Why didn't you shoot at his legs?

I aimed at his legs.

But, like I said, it was very dark.

He was aiming a gun at me.

It was me or him.

Why'd you go directly to the border?

How'd you know they would be there?

I assumed so.

I knew there were illegal passages there. We talked about it.

Until you stopped answering the phone.

I had no service.

Let's take a break.

Mariana.

What's wrong?

What's wrong with you?

I have a lot of work.

Don't do anything stupid.

Don't worry.

I won't kill anyone.

Christi.

Christi, my dear. Open up.

I don't want to!

I know you're sad. That's why we have to talk.

Can you open up, please?

To speak with your mom.

I want to be alone!

We have to leave.

Leave where?

Far from here.

We have to get Christi away from this.

Can you ask for a work transfer

to Madrid.

We could live with Alvarito.

What about the Foundation?

I don't know. I can leave someone in charge

and monitor it from there.

But Christi has her job here,

her friends, her family.

She can have the same thing there, Pablo.

But in a different setting,

far from that guy

and trying to forget what happened.

DEAR TOMMY, DON'T FEEL ALONE.

I WILL ALWAYS BE THERE FOR YOU. I LOVE YOU.

Bye!

Hello, my dear.

Happy birthday.

Bravo!

Commissioner.

Sir.

I have important information to give you.

I'm listening.

First, what's Tommy's judicial situation?

Ask the DA. You work for him.

Do you want the information or not?

The judge is speeding up the transfer to the jail.

She could eventually increase his sentence.

I'm meeting with the DA to look for a solution

but his situation keeps getting more complicated.

PUBLIC DEFENSE

I'm listening now.

Ariel Zavala,

the owner of the factory,

was present when Orlando Mandujano was killed.

But someone

helped him hide that information by altering evidence.

That's not in any report.

No.

Because that someone

is police.

What you're saying is very serious, Commissioner.

Are you sure of this?

I'm sure.

I still need to clear up some details but…

Does the DA know this?

He knows Zavala lied.

In fact, an obstruction of justice case was opened.

But he doesn't know about the altering of evidence.

The unit wants to keep it confidential

until Internal Affairs concludes its investigation.

But that can take months.

I understand.

Why are you helping me?

I'm not helping you.

I'm helping Tommy,

he's had a hard time.

Think about it and work with that information,

but I don't think you should divulge it for now.

Okay.

I'll keep you informed.

I'll keep you informed as well.

EVIDENCE

I need a list of all the calls made.

-Hello. -Commissioner.

Who is this?

Fernando Saldivia.

Go ahead.

I heard what happened with the kid.

I need to talk to you.

I found something that might interest you.

How have you been?

They gave me an injunction and a monthly check in.

What did you want to tell me?

They're fucking me over.

I didn't alter that video.

Who's fucking you over?

The material from Transit Control

arrived August 9th at 16:45.

I submitted it at 18:15 that same day.

If you look at the video information,

you can easily see the creation date.

But the altered video…

has the date blocked.

Now look at this.

Did you see that?

No, what?

Alright.

So what?

August 13th,

Detective Durán left the homicide unit at 14:18.

He had the evidence with him.

SANTIAGO/ BRAZIL AVENUE

At 14:45 he crossed Brazil and Alameda.

At 14:47,

he turned on Republic Street

and he stopped for 42 minutes.

Afterwards, the car goes down St. Isabel at 15:30.

Down Rondizzoni at 15:45.

And look at this.

SANTIAGO / PEDRO MONTT AVENUE

At 15:38,

Durán enters the DA with the evidence.

Alright.

I have a hacker friend

who unblocked the date the altered video was created.

15:21

on August 13.

The same time that Durán was stopped for 42 minutes

on Republic Street.

How did the material end up on your computer?

I don't know.

I don't know when they put it there.

You'd have to check the unit's security cameras.

Hello.

Commissioner, I have what you asked for.

Alright.

It's a disposable phone.

It has three numbers registered. I'll send them to you right now.

Thanks.

Caviedes.

I just sent you three telephone numbers.

I need you to find their location and owner.

Alright, Boss.

Thanks.

SANTORO

Deputy Clerk.

I want to see you in my office now.

Christi, Raymond.

Your father is being transferred to Spain.

For work?

Yes.

Are you going alone?

No, we're all going, dear.

What about Tommy?

And my school?

We'll find a much better school there.

And Tommy will be alone.

It's just for a bit, Christina.

-I want to stay here. -Me too.

You know that's not possible.

Christi.

Christi.

Tommy.

Tommy.

Wake up.

We want to tell you something.

What's that?

We heard what happened to your brother.

We shouldn't have left you alone.

It's fine.

We'll always be here.

With you.

Tommy.

I'm sorry for bugging you so much.

I won't bug you anymore.

I found someone else.

Thanks.

Sit down.

I know you were in the interrogation room with Durán.

I had some questions.

Alright.

You heard his statement.

The reports were sent to the DA.

What more do you want?

To know what happened with Mandujano.

To know why Tommy shot the gun.

We have a video that incriminates Zavala which hasn't been used by the DA.

That video doesn't incriminate anyone.

Just because Zavala was there doesn't make him responsible for anything.

That can work for both sides.

But, Boss,

don't you think it's strange

that the only evidence that incriminates him

was altered?

That's why we detained Saldivia

and we opened a case to investigate him.

I talked to him.

With who?

With Saldivia.

He showed me evidence that proves he's innocent.

Mariana.

We've submitted everything. We've done our part.

Zavala is being processed.

Saldivia is being processed.

And in a few days, Tommy's trial will be closed.

But everything isn't clear.

How much more, Mariana, for Christ's sake?

I've spent years defending you!

I've spent years telling everyone

that despite your stubbornness,

despite your fuck-ups,

you were a good cop.

But your obsession

gets to be

irrational, woman.

Leave it alone.

And go back to

the cases you put aside.

If not, I won't be able to keep defending you.

Okay. You're right.

I know you're like this.

But you need to learn when to stop yourself.

I'm sorry for yelling at you.

It's fine.

May I leave?

Take the afternoon off.

Rest a little.

Mariana.

Are you alright?

Yes.

Do you want me to drive you?

Fine.

I'm sorry.

This whole Beckham thing has upset me.

Everything that happened is hard for me too.

I don't kill people all the time.

Are you alright?

I'm dizzy.

I haven't slept a lot.

Do you have water?

-Do you want me to get you some? -Please.

Thanks.

Ricardo wrote me, I have to go get Amanda.

I'll take you.

No, it's best he doesn't see you.

It'll be one more drama.

Can I come over for dinner?

I'll call you.

Caviedes.

Boss.

How did it go?

The three numbers you gave me,

the first was the San José de Maipo police.

Okay.

The next is Sofía Lombardi.

-Christi's mom. -Of course.

And the other is registered n the name of Jorge Donoso.

I looked into it. He's a mule driver that lives in Cajón del Maipo.

He has a record for illegally trafficking people.

Hello!

Excuse me!

No one's here.

Police. Open the door.

How can I help you?

Guillermo Ruiz,

also known as Beckham.

He was going to cross the border last night.

He was with his brother.

But, when they were going to cross

helped by you,

they didn't meet you.

They met a police officer

who just happened to know where they were crossing.

Given the mountain range is so small.

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

"2007.

Jorge Armando Donoso Roa.

Three years and a day for illegally trafficking people."

You must know the illegal routes well.

I don't do that anymore.

I also don't know the person you're talking about.

Don't act stupid.

I have two calls registered to you from Beckham's phone.

Miss,

my phone's been broken for months.

Why didn't you go meet Beckham?

Did someone talk to you?

Kneel. Hands on your neck.

-Why? -Kneel. Hands on your neck.

Why? I didn't do anything.

Kneel, jerk!

I swear I didn't know that would happen.

Did you talk to him?

How are you?

Good, sir.

I need this evidence, please.

The Commissioner was here.

Mariana?

What did she want?

She wanted me to check the calls from Guillermo Ruiz's phone.

She won't give up.

I told you we would need to take care of her at some point.

No more.

This shit is over.

There will be no more contact between us.

If you pull any shit, I'll report you.

You think you can do that?

You can't prove anything against me.

Hey, Durán.

You're forgetting that you don't just work only for me.

If you talk,

they'll kill you.

Not just you. They'll kill your whole family.

So stop crying

and take care of it.

If not,

I will take care of it.

MARIANA CALLING…

The number you're calling isn't…

Mr. Zavala.

What are you doing here?

I wanted to share some news

that might be useful.

Can you tell me tomorrow?

I worked all day. I need to relax a little.

I know what happened with Beckham.

You ordered to kill him because he was the only one who could say what happened.

Do you know this is private property?

And that it's illegal for you to be here without an order?

So go away.

But you're wrong.

Because Tommy can also talk.

Or did you think, that because he has Down syndrome

we wouldn't listen?

I'm going to call my lawyer.

Don't you want to know?

What? More lies?

Call your lawyer.

You might need help.

Are you threatening me?

Hello, lawyer.

Excuse the hour,

but Detective Enríquez is harassing me again.

Yes, she's here in front of me.

Without a warrant.

Alright.

He told me not to talk to you.

And for you to go

if you don't want me to report you for harassment.

That's right. You're going to need a very good lawyer.

Being charged with Beckham's murder won't be easy.

You know what?

Go away.

Thanks.

Hello, Tommy.

Hello.

Let's prepare for the hearing, alright?

Sit up, please.

Tommy, sit up.

Listen to me.

When Mandujano died,

Ariel Zavala, Coya, was there.

Why didn't you tell me?

Did he threaten you?

Your brother?

You thought they would kill him.

But why didn't you tell me about him?

You called me.

Who is Jorge Donoso?

The mule driver that was going to help Beckham and Tommy.

Why did you ask for protection for him?

Because…

someone,

we don't know who,

contacted him and asked him not to meet them at the border crossing.

They threatened him. If he talks, they're going to kill him.

It's our duty to protect him.

Isn't it?

What did we talk about yesterday?

I just found out

that Ariel Zavala complained

that you interrogated him without a warrant

and now this.

You ignored what we talked about.

I can see you don't give a shit what I tell you.

Are you going to yell at me again?

No.

I'm going to suspend you.

Don't worry.

I'm suspending myself.

No.

RUBÉN SANDOVAL PUBLIC DEFENSE LAWYER

Sir.

I'm going to argue for an exemption of liability.

What do you mean?

The information you gave me

confirms that the investigation is tainted.

Alright.

I'm meeting with the DA and the judge informally.

Okay.

After that, I'd like to see you. Can you be here in an hour?

I'll be there.

Hello.

I'm sorry for calling you so late.

Do you have time for me?

You finally decided to come.

How have you been?

Good.

Do you realize you only come when you're about to close a case?

Why…

do you think I have to come?

You tell me.

So that I'm not disciplined.

Or maybe because you still don't appreciate how big a mistake you made.

There were shots fired.

Do you realize your daughter could have died?

I didn't know that would happen.

I can imagine.

I only know that

I want to get my daughter back.

For that to happen, we'll need to work on some things.

Where should we start?

With your relationship with Amanda?

Or your mother's abandonment?

Or your refusal to come to therapy?

What's this?

Listen to it.

I have various copies.

I sent one to the Director, one to the Comptroller

and the other to the press.

I don't have time to listen to nonsense, Mariana.

Get out of my office.

Listen to it.

So that you know why you're being broadcasted all over the country's media.

Hello, lawyer.

Excuse the hour,

but Detective Enríquez

is harassing me again.

-Is she there with you? -Yes, she's here in front of me.

Without a warrant.

Damn it!

I'll talk to Santoro to suspend her.

Don't do anything stupid.

Let us fix this.

Now I understand everything.

The raids without any result,

Saldivia's incrimination,

the attempts to get me off the case.

Mariana,

it's not what you think.

If I were you,

I would give myself in

before they came looking for me and took me away in handcuffs.

Look, Mariana.

Go to hell…

you old asshole.

Your honor, in accordance with the new records,

we maintain that Tomás Ruiz

acted out of legitimate self-defense,

which should exempt him from criminal responsibility.

What are these new records?

In order to present them the most clearly possible,

I would like to invite Mrs. Mariana Enríquez to testify,

she led the investigation.

Objection, Your Honor.

But the Detective works for the DA.

There's nothing impeding her testimony in this process.

Good. Mrs. Mariana Enríquez, go ahead, please.

Good afternoon.

Mrs. Enríquez, what new information can you share with us?

On August 2 of this year,

there was a robbery of a jewelry store in the centre of Santiago.

The main suspect from the investigation is Guillermo Ruiz,

also known as Beckham.

But security cameras also showed Tomás Ruiz, his brother,

Orlando Mandujano and Ramón Kowalski,

all accomplices to the robbery.

Street cameras show that minutes after the robbery

Beckham and Orlando Mandujano, enter a parking lot,

where they have a fight over the stolen jewelry.

Beckham takes the loot and leaves Mandujano without anything.

August 5th, three days later,

Tommy is kidnapped by Orlando Mandujano

and taken to the Beta Recycles factory,

whose owner is Ariel Zavala, also known as Coya.

Why did Mandujano take him there?

He wanted the jewelry back.

Kidnapping Tommy would make Beckham look for him.

A swap.

That's it.

When he got there,

Beckham gives back the jewelry,

but when he wants to leave with Tommy, they don't let him.

Who doesn't let him?

Orlando Mandujano

and Ariel Zavala, the two people that were there,

Excuse me,

Ariel Zavala was there that night?

That's right.

Why doesn't the evidence submitted by the DA

say that Ariel Zavala was there that night?

Because the evidence was altered from the start.

Who altered the evidence?

We still don't have all the information,

but the main suspects are

Bruno Durán, Subcommissioner of the Homicide Unit

and Rafael Santoro,

Deputy Clerk of the Homicide Unit.

Therefore,

Ariel Zavala lied

and was helped by police officers.

That's right.

During various minutes,

Beckham is beaten in a brutal manner.

Fearing they will kill his brother

and taking advantage that no one was watching him

Tommy grabs the gun that was on the floor

and shoots Orlando Mandujano.

Without being able to take him,

Beckham runs away with the murder weapon and the jewelry,

and leaves Tommy alone there

which is when the police finds him.

Tommy,

was Ariel Zavala, Coya, there that night?

Why didn't you say anything?

I was scared.

Why did you shoot, Tommy?

He was going to kill my brother.

Thanks, Tommy. Thanks, Commissioner.

Your Honor,

we don't know

the magnitude of the web of corruption

that's behind all of this,

but the information provided by the Commissioner

makes us understand that Tomás wasn't only defending

himself from two people that were putting his brother's life at risk,

but he was also defending himself

from a criminal organization whose reach is still unknown.

Good.

With everything we're heard, I will proceed in making a verdict.

The information provided at today's hearing

confirm legitimate defense of a third party

as grounds for an exemption of penal responsibility.

Tomás Ruiz's transfer to the prison is cancelled.

For now, he will stay in the custody of the Center where he was residing.

And I will order a special process for him to receive therapeutic help.
