You boys better take
the Carrollton Road.
12
00:01:40,334 --> 00:01:43,103
State Alcohol's got their
eyes on the Newnan Pass.
13
00:01:43,103 --> 00:01:44,138
I'll see you
boys later.
14
00:01:44,138 --> 00:01:45,539
- Okay, Sheriff,
thank you.
15
00:01:49,643 --> 00:01:51,479
- I need a ride
to services.
16
00:01:51,945 --> 00:01:54,848
- Well, now John,
I got this nigger
out there in the car.
17
00:01:54,848 --> 00:01:58,219
He's the one that's
been siphoning gas
on the farm tanks.
18
00:01:58,219 --> 00:02:00,321
Told me when
I caught him to
bring him to you.
19
00:02:02,556 --> 00:02:03,624
- Take him
out of there.
20
00:02:07,161 --> 00:02:08,462
- Get out
of there, boy.
21
00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:14,168
- Take the cuffs
off of him.
22
00:02:19,540 --> 00:02:21,875
Put your thievin' hands
up against that door jamb.
23
00:02:24,011 --> 00:02:25,479
- Mr. Wallace,
I didn't do it.
24
00:02:25,846 --> 00:02:26,980
- Put 'em up there.
25
00:02:27,147 --> 00:02:28,482
- Please, Mr. Wallace.
26
00:02:29,717 --> 00:02:37,090
* Onward Christian soldiers,
marching as to war
27
00:02:37,525 --> 00:02:45,499
* With the cross of
Jesus going on before *
28
00:02:58,346 --> 00:03:00,848
- Well, good mornin'
everybody.
29
00:03:00,848 --> 00:03:02,750
- John Wallace.
30
00:03:02,750 --> 00:03:04,518
Missed your voice in
choir this morning.
31
00:03:04,518 --> 00:03:07,455
- My apologies,
Reverend, but the ox
was in the ditch.
32
00:03:07,455 --> 00:03:09,357
(laughing)
33
00:03:09,357 --> 00:03:11,925
However, I heard that
you'd be making an appeal
34
00:03:11,925 --> 00:03:13,861
for the new pews
this morning,
35
00:03:13,861 --> 00:03:16,630
and I, I didn't wanna
neglect my Christian duty,
36
00:03:16,630 --> 00:03:21,635
so I'll send over
some of my field hands
to do the labor.
37
00:03:21,902 --> 00:03:24,738
- John, I can't say
there's a more
charitable man
38
00:03:24,738 --> 00:03:26,240
in all of Meriwether.
39
00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:28,075
- Thank you,
Reverend, thank you.
40
00:03:28,075 --> 00:03:30,110
Service was good this
morning, I bet, wasn't it?
41
00:03:30,110 --> 00:03:31,545
Hi there, hi there.
42
00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:54,402
- [Wilson] Federal agents!
Hands in the air!
43
00:03:56,437 --> 00:03:58,739
(laughing)
44
00:04:02,910 --> 00:04:06,447
Robert Lee, I swear
you 'bout half rabbit.
45
00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:10,117
- I am, and you, you
'bout half crazy.
46
00:04:10,117 --> 00:04:13,754
- Crazy? Oh yeah,
I'm crazy alright.
47
00:04:13,754 --> 00:04:16,357
Looky here, see
how crazy I am.
48
00:04:18,258 --> 00:04:20,027
- Where'd you get that?
49
00:04:20,027 --> 00:04:23,664
- Running my share of this
shine, all 20 gallons.
50
00:04:23,664 --> 00:04:26,099
- Mr. Wallace said not to
run no shine for a while.
51
00:04:26,099 --> 00:04:27,701
Sheriff Collier told
him that the revenuers
52
00:04:27,701 --> 00:04:28,769
was laying for us.
53
00:04:28,769 --> 00:04:30,604
- Oh, they was, they was.
54
00:04:30,604 --> 00:04:33,307
Had that highway
all staked out.
55
00:04:33,307 --> 00:04:35,776
I just did me a
little heel and toe
on the floorboards,
56
00:04:35,776 --> 00:04:37,478
got my new truck
to kickin' dust.
57
00:04:37,478 --> 00:04:39,647
Had them laws fishtailin'
every which a way.
58
00:04:40,781 --> 00:04:43,617
- Mr. Wallace said
not to run no shine.
59
00:04:43,617 --> 00:04:46,554
- Mr. Wallace ain't
got no sick baby,
60
00:04:46,554 --> 00:04:48,021
and no pregnant
wife neither.
61
00:04:48,456 --> 00:04:49,623
- [Wallace] Well...
62
00:04:54,027 --> 00:04:56,330
See you made yourself
a little money, Wilson.
63
00:04:58,131 --> 00:05:00,968
I heard you did
some fancy drivin'.
64
00:05:02,503 --> 00:05:04,872
- Yes sir,
I believe I did.
65
00:05:04,872 --> 00:05:07,140
- Yeah, I guess so.
66
00:05:07,140 --> 00:05:09,477
I seen that Revenuer
car this mornin',
67
00:05:09,477 --> 00:05:12,846
belly up in that
drainage ditch, wheels
still a spinnin'.
68
00:05:13,013 --> 00:05:15,315
(laughing)
69
00:05:20,588 --> 00:05:21,522
Hand it over, son.
70
00:05:23,323 --> 00:05:25,759
- Mr. Wallace, that
was my share I run.
71
00:05:25,759 --> 00:05:28,228
- No, your share is
setting right there.
72
00:05:28,228 --> 00:05:30,498
Seem like you took
the wrong bottles.
73
00:05:30,498 --> 00:05:33,100
That's what happens
when you don't check
with me first.
74
00:05:33,834 --> 00:05:35,068
Give it on up.
75
00:05:35,068 --> 00:05:36,737
- I need this money.
76
00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:48,416
- Got bold, boy.
77
00:05:49,282 --> 00:05:51,218
You got greedy.
78
00:05:51,218 --> 00:05:54,354
New truck, store
bought clothes
for your wife,
79
00:05:54,354 --> 00:05:55,556
runnin' to the
doctor every time
80
00:05:55,556 --> 00:05:57,458
your baby gets a
little bit sick.
81
00:05:57,691 --> 00:05:59,727
You startin' to act
like you was somebody.
82
00:06:01,629 --> 00:06:03,531
I don't need that
around here.
83
00:06:04,698 --> 00:06:05,766
I want you
off my land.
84
00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:08,936
- But I got crops
in the field.
85
00:06:09,202 --> 00:06:11,371
- The crops are
in MY field.
86
00:06:12,272 --> 00:06:13,106
Now get.
87
00:06:22,750 --> 00:06:26,420
(dramatic
orchestral music)
88
00:06:53,146 --> 00:06:55,082
- John Wallace owes me.
89
00:06:58,586 --> 00:07:00,621
(mooing)
90
00:07:05,258 --> 00:07:10,498
Well, Mr. Wallace,
your prized Guernsey
just got stole.
91
00:07:11,799 --> 00:07:13,501
Let's see you
swallow that.
92
00:07:13,501 --> 00:07:15,202
- What are you
gonna do?
93
00:07:15,202 --> 00:07:18,271
- Little pasture over
in Carrollton, way
back in the woods.
94
00:07:18,271 --> 00:07:19,607
Keep her there until
I find me a buyer.
95
00:07:19,607 --> 00:07:23,110
- Wilson, I helped
you 'cause you're
my sister's husband
96
00:07:23,110 --> 00:07:27,114
and you need the money,
but messing like this
with John Wallace,
97
00:07:27,114 --> 00:07:30,017
I don't think I wanna be
around you for awhile.
98
00:07:36,790 --> 00:07:39,159
(mooing)
99
00:07:39,159 --> 00:07:40,694
- Easy there, girl.
100
00:07:40,694 --> 00:07:42,796
Got a man who's gonna
pay cash money for you.
101
00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:48,702
- You busted, son.
102
00:07:50,137 --> 00:07:51,872
- Sheriff Threadgill.
103
00:07:53,473 --> 00:07:56,844
Uh, you're not taking me
back to Meriwether are ya?
104
00:07:57,811 --> 00:08:00,313
You're not handing me over
to Sheriff Collier are ya?
105
00:08:01,081 --> 00:08:02,916
- You're in my
custody, cow thief,
106
00:08:02,916 --> 00:08:04,652
and you ain't
going nowhere but
Carrollton jail.
107
00:08:04,652 --> 00:08:05,819
- Yes sir, Sheriff.
108
00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:07,588
Yes sir.
109
00:08:15,996 --> 00:08:17,030
- Turner, get up.
110
00:08:17,731 --> 00:08:19,066
You're being transferred
to Meriwether.
111
00:08:19,066 --> 00:08:20,033
- What for?
112
00:08:20,534 --> 00:08:22,235
- 'Cause that's where
you stole the cow and
they've got jurisdiction.
113
00:08:22,502 --> 00:08:23,737
Sheriff Collier
brought the warrant.
114
00:08:23,737 --> 00:08:25,939
- No, Sheriff, you
can't let them take me!
115
00:08:25,939 --> 00:08:28,341
That's John Wallace,
Collier's one of his boys!
116
00:08:28,341 --> 00:08:30,844
Wallace'll kill me!
Collier'll let him!
117
00:08:31,178 --> 00:08:34,014
Please God, don't
let 'em take me!
118
00:08:35,215 --> 00:08:36,850
Wallace'll kill me!
119
00:08:39,086 --> 00:08:39,753
- Thank you, Sheriff.
120
00:09:01,241 --> 00:09:02,075
- Supper.
121
00:09:03,877 --> 00:09:07,881
- I don't want
my supper, I want
my phone call.
122
00:09:07,881 --> 00:09:09,883
Ain't had one since
I been arrested.
123
00:09:09,883 --> 00:09:11,885
- Sheriff says you
don't get no phone call.
124
00:09:11,885 --> 00:09:15,088
- Look, my wife
don't know I'm here.
125
00:09:15,088 --> 00:09:17,324
Nobody knows I'm here.
126
00:09:17,324 --> 00:09:21,428
Let me just send a note
or somethin', please.
127
00:09:22,730 --> 00:09:24,464
- You don't eat that
supper, it's gonna
128
00:09:24,464 --> 00:09:26,433
sit right there and
be your breakfast.
129
00:09:29,937 --> 00:09:33,573
(forlorn
orchestral music)
130
00:09:39,780 --> 00:09:42,115
- Hey! Hey, lady!
131
00:09:42,115 --> 00:09:43,684
My name is
Wilson Turner.
132
00:09:43,684 --> 00:09:44,918
I've got relatives

134
00:09:47,921 --> 00:09:50,523
Tell 'em I'm here,

135
00:09:50,523 --> 00:09:52,826
No, wait,
they'll pay ya.
136
00:09:52,826 --> 00:09:53,927
Tell 'em I said
they'll pay ya.
137
00:09:53,927 --> 00:09:55,763
Please, lady!
138
00:09:56,964 --> 00:10:00,000
Tell somebody about me!
139
00:10:04,004 --> 00:10:06,106
(crying)
140
00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:07,607
What are you doing?
141
00:10:08,308 --> 00:10:09,677
- Turnin' you loose.
142
00:10:11,779 --> 00:10:12,345
- How come?
143
00:10:13,814 --> 00:10:16,116
- Somethin' about
lack of evidence.
144
00:10:16,116 --> 00:10:19,319
Sheriff said to let you
out at straight up 12.
145
00:10:20,988 --> 00:10:23,123
- How come 12 o'clock?
146
00:10:24,825 --> 00:10:25,859
Where is the Sheriff?
147
00:10:27,294 --> 00:10:28,829
- Are you goin'
or stayin'?
148
00:10:28,829 --> 00:10:30,130
I got errands.
149
00:10:32,833 --> 00:10:33,867
Your truck's out front.
150
00:11:19,446 --> 00:11:22,349
- Hey, I had a full

00:11:34,862 --> 00:11:38,431
(ominous
orchestral music)
153
00:11:56,116 --> 00:11:57,584
- Afternoon,

154
00:11:58,752 --> 00:12:01,054
Guess Sheriff Collier

155
00:12:01,054 --> 00:12:04,224

You ain't

You escapin'.
158
00:13:04,784 --> 00:13:07,454
Stupid Collier,
was supposed to
empty that tank.
159
00:13:09,957 --> 00:13:11,992
(suspenseful
acoustic music)
160
00:13:18,899 --> 00:13:20,800
(gunfire)
161
00:13:29,009 --> 00:13:30,677
- Too excited, you
can't hit nothin'.
162
00:13:30,878 --> 00:13:32,412
- You don't catch
him, I'll shoot you.
163
00:13:33,580 --> 00:13:35,815
(suspenseful
acoustic music)
164
00:13:43,656 --> 00:13:44,424

00:13:56,036 --> 00:13:57,204
- Keep goin'.
168
00:13:57,570 --> 00:14:00,073

169
00:14:00,073 --> 00:14:00,908
- Keep goin'!
170
00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:22,195

00:14:22,195 --> 00:14:23,696
Don't let him kill me!
172
00:14:23,696 --> 00:14:25,065
(grunting)
173
00:14:26,533 --> 00:14:29,402
- Stop it! Don't

174
00:14:31,071 --> 00:14:32,205
- What are you
boys doin'?
175
00:14:32,539 --> 00:14:34,541
- Escaped criminal,
wanted for murder.
176
00:14:35,542 --> 00:14:37,544
- [Wilson] Wait, stop!
Help me!
177
00:14:39,879 --> 00:14:41,214
- Why don't you
just handcuff him?
178
00:14:41,381 --> 00:14:43,383
- Why don't you mind
your own damn business?
179
00:14:47,054 --> 00:14:48,721
(bang)
180
00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:01,935
- What we gonna do?
181
00:15:03,003 --> 00:15:04,404
- I'm gonna call
Sheriff Potts.
182
00:15:14,847 --> 00:15:17,317
- Irene, you do
make a world beatin'
cheeseburger.
183
00:15:17,317 --> 00:15:19,186
- Glad you like it, J.H.
184
00:15:19,953 --> 00:15:21,588
Want some of these?
185
00:15:23,123 --> 00:15:26,926
- Hey, J.H., I've been
noticin' Berryman Brown.
186
00:15:26,926 --> 00:15:29,629
His britches are
gettin' tight and his
pride is sufferin'.
187
00:15:30,130 --> 00:15:33,266
I want you to buy him
a new pair. Take 'em
out to his mama.
188
00:15:33,866 --> 00:15:35,502
Don't tell her where
they came from.
189
00:15:36,936 --> 00:15:37,770
- Size 12?
190
00:15:39,106 --> 00:15:40,673
- 14, he's
still growin'.
191
00:15:42,442 --> 00:15:43,443
- Lamar.
192
00:15:43,443 --> 00:15:44,444
- Hey, Otwell.
193
00:15:44,611 --> 00:15:46,980
- We just got
a call from the
Sunset Tourist Camp.
194
00:15:46,980 --> 00:15:48,515
They think they
seen a killin'.
195
00:15:50,317 --> 00:15:51,318
- Where you goin'?
196
00:15:51,618 --> 00:15:53,053
- Well, we might have
ourselves a murder.
197
00:15:53,053 --> 00:15:54,521
- No, no, need you
around the office.
198
00:15:54,521 --> 00:15:56,689
Stay on the phone,
might be somethin'
comin' in.
199
00:15:59,126 --> 00:16:00,693
And I'd like you to try
to get those britches
200
00:16:00,693 --> 00:16:01,961
for that boy today.
201
00:16:02,529 --> 00:16:03,463
I'll drive.
202
00:16:11,504 --> 00:16:14,341
(tires squealing)
203
00:16:20,347 --> 00:16:22,149
- He was just a
little fella, Sheriff.
204
00:16:22,149 --> 00:16:23,983
No more than
130 pounds.
205
00:16:23,983 --> 00:16:26,319
And the way they
kept beatin' on him.
206
00:16:26,319 --> 00:16:28,988
One of 'em had a
fancy pearl handle gun.
207
00:16:30,257 --> 00:16:33,993
I never saw nobody
so mean and hateful
in all my life.
208
00:16:33,993 --> 00:16:35,228
And then the
gun went off.
209
00:16:35,228 --> 00:16:35,995
- Was he shot?
210
00:16:36,263 --> 00:16:38,098
- No, he hit him on the
head with the barrel.
211
00:16:38,565 --> 00:16:40,067
Cracked him
in the skull.
212
00:16:40,067 --> 00:16:42,402
And then he fell
and didn't move.
213
00:16:42,402 --> 00:16:45,105
He was dead, Sheriff,
he had to be dead.
214
00:16:45,338 --> 00:16:47,774
- I'm sorry Mr. Wilson,
it's all over now.
215
00:16:47,774 --> 00:16:48,741
Would you see
Mr. Wilson home?
216
00:16:48,741 --> 00:16:51,544
- I'll be glad to.
217
00:16:51,544 --> 00:16:54,381
- I got half a
license number on
that tan four-door
218
00:16:54,381 --> 00:16:56,049
and description
of the assailants,
219
00:16:56,049 --> 00:16:58,251
and the witnesses are
inside whenever you
wanna talk to 'em.
220
00:16:58,251 --> 00:16:59,252
- How 'bout the truck?
221
00:16:59,352 --> 00:17:01,521
- Well, license frame said
Lagrange Motor Company
222
00:17:01,521 --> 00:17:05,758
so I called 'em up
and it's registered
to a Wilson Turner.
223
00:17:05,758 --> 00:17:08,728
He's a tenant
farmer over on
John Wallace's place.
224
00:17:09,362 --> 00:17:13,366
And Lamar, the feller
who did the killin',
225
00:17:13,933 --> 00:17:16,536
well, he sounds an awful
lot like John Wallace.
226
00:17:21,308 --> 00:17:24,077
(motor cranking)
227
00:17:31,050 --> 00:17:32,752
- He got as far
as he was goin'.
228
00:17:35,388 --> 00:17:37,757
Run those chase car
numbers through Atlanta,
229
00:17:39,392 --> 00:17:41,494
crosscheck 'em against
the local registries.
230
00:17:42,295 --> 00:17:45,298
Send some of your boys
by Turner's house,
ask around,
231
00:17:45,298 --> 00:17:47,267
see if maybe he
shows up somewhere.
232
00:17:47,600 --> 00:17:49,469
He might
still be alive.
233
00:17:50,470 --> 00:17:54,841
- Lamar, John Wallace...
he just about owns
Meriwether County.
234
00:17:54,841 --> 00:17:56,143
- This ain't Meriwether.
235
00:17:58,345 --> 00:18:00,247
(dramatic string music)
236
00:18:20,433 --> 00:18:23,470
- Lamar, them license
numbers came back
from Atlanta.
237
00:18:23,470 --> 00:18:24,671
They belong to
Herring Sivell.
238
00:18:24,671 --> 00:18:27,106
- Wasn't he indicted
on murder a while back?
239
00:18:27,106 --> 00:18:29,376
- Killed a man
over a poker game,
shot him in the back.
240
00:18:29,376 --> 00:18:31,844
Five witnesses,
Wallace got him off.
241
00:18:31,844 --> 00:18:32,779
- Any sign of Turner?
242
00:18:33,280 --> 00:18:35,282
- No, but guess where
he was right before
Wallace got ahold of him.
243
00:18:35,282 --> 00:18:35,815
- Where?
244
00:18:36,249 --> 00:18:38,618
- How 'bout Sheriff
Hardy Collier's jail?
245
00:18:38,618 --> 00:18:39,686
- Let's go.
246
00:18:40,019 --> 00:18:41,288
- Lamar, can I
drive this time?
247
00:18:55,902 --> 00:18:57,637
(honking)
248
00:18:58,238 --> 00:19:01,474
- Wilson Turner
was released at
12 noon yesterday.
249
00:19:02,175 --> 00:19:05,678
Guilty as sin.
Didn't have enough
evidence to hold him.
250
00:19:05,678 --> 00:19:06,979
Release paper's
right here.
251
00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:11,083
- The assailant said
somethin' about an
escaped criminal.
252
00:19:11,083 --> 00:19:14,221
- Well, that's nonsense as
you can see right there.
253
00:19:14,221 --> 00:19:17,324
- Accused of stealing
one of Wallace's cows.
254
00:19:17,324 --> 00:19:19,259
- Well, we got
the cow back.
255
00:19:19,259 --> 00:19:21,160
There really wasn't
no harm done.
256
00:19:23,730 --> 00:19:25,698
- I'd like to talk to
Wallace and Sivell.
257
00:19:25,698 --> 00:19:28,167
- Now, John Wallace
didn't have nothin'
to do with no killin'.
258
00:19:28,167 --> 00:19:29,902
- We're not sure
anybody's dead yet.
259
00:19:30,337 --> 00:19:31,771
- Well, whatever.
260
00:19:31,771 --> 00:19:34,374
John was here with me
yesterday eatin' lunch.
261
00:19:34,374 --> 00:19:36,376
Matter of fact, we
had my favorite.
262
00:19:36,376 --> 00:19:38,445
Hamsteak and okra.
263
00:19:38,445 --> 00:19:39,346
- That right?
264
00:19:39,346 --> 00:19:40,179
- Yes sir.
265
00:19:40,347 --> 00:19:42,682
We talked
about livestock,
price of feed.
266
00:19:43,750 --> 00:19:46,853
John must have stayed,
yeah... the radio
said it was 2:30.
267
00:19:46,853 --> 00:19:48,855
I walked him out to
his car, he got in it,
268
00:19:48,855 --> 00:19:50,423
and headed west,
went on home.
269
00:19:51,358 --> 00:19:53,092
- You know where Wallace
might be right now?
270
00:19:53,393 --> 00:19:55,362
- Yes, sir, he's out
of town on business.
271
00:19:56,729 --> 00:20:00,533
- Now let me make
something clear
to you, Collier.
272
00:20:00,533 --> 00:20:03,936
I have jurisdiction
on this case
273
00:20:03,936 --> 00:20:06,473
and I didn't come
here out of law,
274
00:20:06,473 --> 00:20:08,107
I came here
out of manners.
275
00:20:08,808 --> 00:20:12,144
Now, I want John Wallace
and Herring Sivell
276
00:20:12,144 --> 00:20:14,881
brought to my office, and
I want you to bring 'em.
277
00:20:14,881 --> 00:20:16,716
- You want 'em so bad,
why don't you get 'em?
278
00:20:16,716 --> 00:20:19,752
- That's your job,
Sheriff.
279
00:20:21,053 --> 00:20:24,591
Now you got until 9 AM
tomorrow mornin'.
280
00:20:36,903 --> 00:20:38,838
- "Release papers"
my hind end.
281
00:20:38,838 --> 00:20:40,340
Turner was set up.
282
00:20:41,574 --> 00:20:42,642
- Well, let's
ask around.
283
00:20:42,642 --> 00:20:44,911
Maybe we can find
somebody who saw
what happened.
284
00:20:53,486 --> 00:20:55,355
Miss Baker?
285
00:20:55,355 --> 00:20:56,623
- Mrs.
286
00:20:56,623 --> 00:20:59,592
- Mrs. Baker, I'm
Sheriff Lamar Potts
287
00:20:59,592 --> 00:21:02,962
from over in
Coweta County. This
is my brother J.H.
288
00:21:02,962 --> 00:21:06,265
and we were wondering
if maybe you saw anything
unusual yesterday
289
00:21:06,265 --> 00:21:10,102
out there on the square,
sometime around noon.
290
00:21:10,937 --> 00:21:13,105
- This about that
Sunset killin'?
291
00:21:13,205 --> 00:21:14,707
- Possible killin',
yes ma'am.
292
00:21:16,976 --> 00:21:18,044
- I didn't
see anything.
293
00:21:18,478 --> 00:21:20,347
- You didn't see John
Wallace anywhere?
294
00:21:22,214 --> 00:21:26,953
- John Wallace is a fine
man, a Christian man.
295
00:21:27,687 --> 00:21:31,524
He bought all new
pews for Reverend
Wainwright's church.
296
00:21:31,524 --> 00:21:35,395
Gave Widow Thompson
a milkin' cow when
her old one died.
297
00:21:35,395 --> 00:21:38,698
Built a new barn for
Jake Henley when
his burnt down.
298
00:21:38,698 --> 00:21:43,169
And I have to say,
I don't particularly
appreciate outsiders
299
00:21:43,169 --> 00:21:47,039
comin' around here
meddlin' in Mr. John
Wallace's affairs.
300
00:21:48,841 --> 00:21:51,978
- Yes ma'am, thank
you for your time.
301
00:22:01,688 --> 00:22:04,557
- Seems that John
Wallace is a real
generous soul.
302
00:22:05,358 --> 00:22:08,094
- John Wallace
didn't buy any
pews or barns.
303
00:22:09,028 --> 00:22:09,996
He bought people.
304
00:22:11,063 --> 00:22:12,899
- Alright, let her go.
305
00:22:12,899 --> 00:22:14,333
Pull her out, Kay.
306
00:22:14,333 --> 00:22:16,936
Come on, come on
Kay, take it up.
307
00:22:16,936 --> 00:22:18,505
Come on, Kay
come on here.
308
00:22:18,505 --> 00:22:19,839
- Come on here, Kay,
come on here.
309
00:22:19,839 --> 00:22:21,508
- Pull it Kay,
pull it Kay.
310
00:22:21,508 --> 00:22:23,510
Come on, like a
Missouri mule, Kay,
311
00:22:23,510 --> 00:22:27,013
not a little cotton field
mule. Come up here, come
up here Kay.
312
00:22:27,013 --> 00:22:28,280
Don't back off. C'mon.
313
00:22:34,353 --> 00:22:35,522
Hello, Hardy.
314
00:22:35,522 --> 00:22:37,690
You look a little peaked
here. C'mon Kay!
315
00:22:38,625 --> 00:22:41,060
That angina kicking
back up on you again?
316
00:22:41,060 --> 00:22:42,862
- Need to talk
to you, John.
317
00:22:42,862 --> 00:22:45,197
- Keep workin' with
her, boys, keep
workin' with her.
318
00:22:49,969 --> 00:22:52,405
- Sheriff Potts paid me
a visit this mornin'.
319
00:22:52,805 --> 00:22:55,241
- Yeah? What'd he want?
320
00:22:56,042 --> 00:22:59,278
- What he wants is
the man who killed
Wilson Turner.
321
00:23:00,813 --> 00:23:02,615
- Is that's what got
you so bothered?
322
00:23:02,749 --> 00:23:04,083
- Real bothered.
323
00:23:07,219 --> 00:23:10,790
- Well, Turner was
nothin' but thievin',
weasely white trash.
324
00:23:10,790 --> 00:23:13,926
What kind of man is gonna
go breakin' a sweat over
the likes of him?
325
00:23:15,428 --> 00:23:16,829
- Lamar Potts.
326
00:23:18,831 --> 00:23:21,634
- The man was insolent,
stole from me.
327
00:23:22,334 --> 00:23:24,771
I let him get away
and every dirt farmer
I got's gonna
328
00:23:24,771 --> 00:23:27,006
wanna start
helpin' himself to
my possessions.
329
00:23:29,008 --> 00:23:30,443
I had to kill Turner.
It's business.
330
00:23:30,443 --> 00:23:31,811
Potts ought to
understand that.
331
00:23:31,844 --> 00:23:34,280
- He don't see things
that way, John.
332
00:23:34,280 --> 00:23:37,650
Now, if you don't
walk right, Potts'll
come at ya,
333
00:23:37,650 --> 00:23:38,918
and he keeps comin'.
334
00:23:38,918 --> 00:23:41,320
Hey, you remember
that field hand
335
00:23:41,320 --> 00:23:44,290
that killed his wife and
chopped her legs off?
336
00:23:44,457 --> 00:23:46,993
Now, Potts tracked him
all the way to Kansas
337
00:23:46,993 --> 00:23:49,128
and yanked him out
of a wheat field.
338
00:23:50,863 --> 00:23:51,864
- That was a nigger.
339
00:23:52,198 --> 00:23:54,701
- It don't make no
difference to him, John.
340
00:23:57,504 --> 00:24:00,039
- I don't believe
you know who you
talkin' to.
341
00:24:00,973 --> 00:24:03,309
This is the Kingdom,
this is Meriwether.
342
00:24:03,309 --> 00:24:05,712
Nobody around here gonna
say a word against me.
343
00:24:05,812 --> 00:24:09,148
- Except you didn't
kill him in Meriwether,
344
00:24:09,148 --> 00:24:11,484
you killed him
across the line,
345
00:24:11,484 --> 00:24:14,521
with eight Coweta
witnesses and a Sheriff
that won't quit.
346
00:24:15,021 --> 00:24:18,958
Now, I'm tellin'
you John, if Potts
can find a nigger
347
00:24:18,958 --> 00:24:22,461
in Kansas, he can
sure find white trash
in a swamp.
348
00:24:24,296 --> 00:24:28,334
Now I don't know, and I
don't wanna know where
you dumped the body,
349
00:24:28,334 --> 00:24:30,169
but wherever it is,
350
00:24:30,169 --> 00:24:31,538
better be hid good.
351
00:24:42,248 --> 00:24:43,850
(barking)
352
00:24:47,219 --> 00:24:48,354
- I ain't goin'
in there.
353
00:24:51,023 --> 00:24:52,424
(honking)
354
00:24:55,094 --> 00:24:56,696
Miss Mayhayley.
355
00:24:56,863 --> 00:24:58,364
- [Mayhayley] Who is it?
356
00:24:58,364 --> 00:25:00,399
- John Wallace.
357
00:25:00,399 --> 00:25:01,668
- [Mayhayley] Dogs, git!
358
00:25:28,561 --> 00:25:30,062
- Evenin',
Miss Mayhayley.
359
00:25:31,063 --> 00:25:33,566
- Well, you went
ahead and killed
him, didn't ya?
360
00:25:36,102 --> 00:25:37,436
- Who told you that?
361
00:25:37,737 --> 00:25:40,139
- I have seen
the wicked,
362
00:25:40,139 --> 00:25:43,475
spreading himself
like a green bay tree.
363
00:25:44,243 --> 00:25:45,778
(laughing)
364
00:25:49,215 --> 00:25:50,382
- Evenin', Miss Sally.
365
00:25:56,322 --> 00:25:57,590
- I'd like a readin'.
366
00:26:32,191 --> 00:26:32,692
What do you see?
367
00:26:34,994 --> 00:26:38,631
- Deep in the well.
Deep in the woods.
368
00:26:38,631 --> 00:26:41,968
A body is lost.
But not for good.
369
00:26:46,038 --> 00:26:46,873
- What else do you see?
370
00:26:48,440 --> 00:26:52,645
- A man who is strong.
A man who is true.
371
00:26:52,645 --> 00:26:55,381
A man who is just as
determined as you.
372
00:26:57,483 --> 00:26:58,217
- Will he find the body?
373
00:26:58,985 --> 00:27:03,155
- The steps of a
righteous man are
ordered by the Lord,
374
00:27:03,155 --> 00:27:05,825
and the evil shall go
down into the mire.
375
00:27:05,825 --> 00:27:06,893
- Will he find the body?
376
00:27:08,027 --> 00:27:11,831
- You encourage yourself
in an evil thing.
377
00:27:12,865 --> 00:27:15,668
You accomplish
an evil thing.
378
00:27:16,168 --> 00:27:18,738
God's arrows shall
bring you down.
379
00:27:18,905 --> 00:27:20,572
- Answer me, will
he find the body?
380
00:27:20,673 --> 00:27:25,244
- You shall be
brought to the
pit of destruction.
381
00:27:25,577 --> 00:27:27,546
- Damn you,
you old witch!
382
00:27:28,214 --> 00:27:32,584
- And damnation be
unto you, John Wallace.
383
00:27:46,665 --> 00:27:48,034
- What'd she say?
384
00:27:49,869 --> 00:27:51,037
- Gibberish.
385
00:27:51,537 --> 00:27:53,039
- So what we
gonna do now?
386
00:28:04,550 --> 00:28:08,054
- State of Georgia calls
for a "corpus delicti".
387
00:28:08,955 --> 00:28:11,457
They ain't no body,
they ain't no murder.
388
00:28:11,924 --> 00:28:15,862
- Potts is a tracker, now
he just might find it.
389
00:28:16,628 --> 00:28:19,298
- He can't find a body
if they ain't no body.
390
00:28:22,401 --> 00:28:23,469
Get me out of here.
391
00:28:32,611 --> 00:28:34,814
- Yes, ma'am, and
when do you think
he might be back?
392
00:28:35,748 --> 00:28:37,984
Uh huh, would you
tell him we called?
393
00:28:38,650 --> 00:28:39,651
Thank you, ma'am.
394
00:28:40,920 --> 00:28:43,089
Well, Collier's out,
housekeeper doesn't know
395
00:28:43,089 --> 00:28:45,958
where, for how long,
it's already 11:30.
396
00:28:45,958 --> 00:28:47,293
He's duckin' us, Lamar.
397
00:28:47,293 --> 00:28:49,896
- Have Otwell meet us
here as soon as he can.
398
00:28:49,896 --> 00:28:53,099
Jim Hillin too. I want
the GBI in on this.
399
00:28:53,099 --> 00:28:54,566
I'm going to see
Judge Boykin,
400
00:28:54,566 --> 00:28:56,635
get a search warrant
for Wallace's place.
401
00:28:56,635 --> 00:28:58,270
We're through waiting.
402
00:28:59,471 --> 00:29:03,309
(suspenseful
orchestral music)
403
00:29:13,619 --> 00:29:15,487
- [Jim] That's
Wallace's house?
404
00:29:15,487 --> 00:29:17,489
I thought he'd have
a big ol' mansion.
405
00:29:17,489 --> 00:29:19,691
- Wallace don't care
about looking powerful,
406
00:29:19,691 --> 00:29:21,293
just bein' powerful.
407
00:29:50,356 --> 00:29:52,158
(knocking)
408
00:30:00,032 --> 00:30:01,167
- Good afternoon.
409
00:30:01,167 --> 00:30:02,568
- Mrs. Wallace?
410
00:30:02,568 --> 00:30:03,836
- Yes.
411
00:30:03,836 --> 00:30:06,205
- Good afternoon,
Mrs. Wallace.
412
00:30:06,205 --> 00:30:10,142
I'm Sheriff Lamar Potts.
This is J.C. Otwell,
413
00:30:10,142 --> 00:30:13,712
Georgia State Police,
my brother J.H.,
414
00:30:13,712 --> 00:30:16,648
and Jim Hillin, Georgia
Bureau of Investigation.
415
00:30:16,648 --> 00:30:17,683
- Gentlemen.
416
00:30:18,417 --> 00:30:22,221
- Mrs. Wallace,
I apologize for
any intrusion,
417
00:30:22,221 --> 00:30:24,390
but I'd like to speak
with your husband.
418
00:30:24,390 --> 00:30:27,526
- Oh, I'm afraid
he's not in, Sheriff.
419
00:30:27,526 --> 00:30:30,762
He hasn't been
home since day
before yesterday.
420
00:30:30,762 --> 00:30:32,031
- Do you know
where he is?
421
00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:38,537
- I have heard
that he has another
who suits him better.
422
00:30:41,874 --> 00:30:43,342
Do you like
flowers, Sheriff?
423
00:30:45,111 --> 00:30:48,915
- Yes ma'am, my
wife raises some.
424
00:30:49,781 --> 00:30:51,717
She'd envy your
talent there.
425
00:30:52,784 --> 00:30:55,888
- I'm especially
proud of my geraniums.
426
00:30:55,888 --> 00:30:58,891
They're such a brave
flower, don't you think?
427
00:30:59,926 --> 00:31:00,792
- Yes ma'am.
428
00:31:04,130 --> 00:31:06,532
Mrs. Wallace, I know it
might be an inconvenience,
429
00:31:06,532 --> 00:31:08,300
but I have a warrant
to search your house.
430
00:31:09,902 --> 00:31:10,903
- Search the house?
431
00:31:11,070 --> 00:31:12,738
- We'll be as
careful as we can.
432
00:31:13,940 --> 00:31:15,141
- Of course, Sheriff.
433
00:31:24,383 --> 00:31:25,617
- Somewhere around here.
434
00:31:26,752 --> 00:31:29,388
I remember the
clearing, I remember
these briar bushes.
435
00:31:29,388 --> 00:31:32,058
- What is it we
supposed to be lookin'
for, Mr. Wallace?
436
00:31:32,058 --> 00:31:33,592
- An old abandoned well.
437
00:31:33,592 --> 00:31:35,494
- What's in the
well, Mr. Wallace?
438
00:31:35,494 --> 00:31:36,328
- Package.
439
00:31:36,328 --> 00:31:37,329
- What kind of package?
440
00:31:39,465 --> 00:31:40,933
- There's an old well
over there, Mr. Wallace.
441
00:31:45,804 --> 00:31:47,006
- Yeah, that's it.
442
00:31:47,006 --> 00:31:48,840
That's it. Get those
boards off of there.
443
00:32:00,752 --> 00:32:01,753
Hold it, hold it,
hold it.
444
00:32:04,123 --> 00:32:05,091
- I don't see nothin'
down there.
445
00:32:05,257 --> 00:32:09,495
- Drop that
grappling hook on down
there, go ahead.
446
00:32:10,629 --> 00:32:12,331
Go ahead, yeah.
447
00:32:18,437 --> 00:32:19,138
Alright, fish around.
448
00:32:19,338 --> 00:32:20,973
See if you can catch
ahold of anything.
449
00:32:24,876 --> 00:32:25,477
Yeah...
450
00:32:26,378 --> 00:32:26,845
Alright.
451
00:32:27,613 --> 00:32:28,814
Give him a hand,
give him a hand.
452
00:32:28,814 --> 00:32:30,116
Pull it on
out of there.
453
00:32:30,116 --> 00:32:32,218
Come on pull,
everybody pull. Pull.
454
00:32:37,056 --> 00:32:38,057
Come on.
455
00:32:45,831 --> 00:32:48,034
- His skull,
it's bust open.
456
00:32:48,667 --> 00:32:50,336
- Cut a pole.
We're movin' him.
457
00:32:51,703 --> 00:32:55,307
- Mr. Wallace, I don't
think I want to do that.
458
00:32:56,575 --> 00:32:59,345
- Somebody around here
asked you what you want?
459
00:33:12,024 --> 00:33:13,592
- Hey, Sheriff.
460
00:33:13,592 --> 00:33:14,426
- Yeah.
461
00:33:17,729 --> 00:33:18,730
- Look here.
462
00:33:22,234 --> 00:33:24,236
- Hey... hold 'em
up like this.
463
00:33:27,273 --> 00:33:30,709
Yeah, the blood line
runs from his shoulder,
464
00:33:30,709 --> 00:33:33,912
down his back, across his
hip, even down the leg.
465
00:33:33,912 --> 00:33:36,448
Evidently, he carried
Turner's body somewhere.
466
00:33:37,583 --> 00:33:38,917
Slung over his
right shoulder.
467
00:33:39,185 --> 00:33:40,686
- Well, one thing's
for certain.
468
00:33:40,686 --> 00:33:42,921
No man's gonna bleed
that much and live.
469
00:33:44,190 --> 00:33:46,092
We got ourselves a
definite murder here.
470
00:33:50,862 --> 00:33:52,764
- We're all finished
now, Mrs. Wallace,
471
00:33:52,764 --> 00:33:54,566
and I wanna thank you
for your cooperation.
472
00:33:55,467 --> 00:33:57,769
- I have freshly baked
tea cakes, Sheriff.
473
00:33:57,769 --> 00:34:00,038
Perhaps you and your
men would care for
some refreshments.
474
00:34:00,939 --> 00:34:02,274
- No, thank you ma'am.
475
00:34:02,274 --> 00:34:03,142
We'll just be
on our way.
476
00:34:04,276 --> 00:34:05,477
- Goodbye, Sheriff.
477
00:34:06,278 --> 00:34:08,280
- Goodbye,
Mrs. Wallace.
478
00:34:23,795 --> 00:34:26,832
(tender piano music)
479
00:34:54,460 --> 00:34:57,996
- Albert, Albert, why
don't we just quit?
480
00:34:57,996 --> 00:35:00,332
Why don't we just
lay it down, go home?
481
00:35:00,999 --> 00:35:04,536
- Mr. Wallace killed
this white man over
50 dollars and a cow.
482
00:35:05,671 --> 00:35:07,673
You still wanna
lay your burden down?
483
00:36:09,568 --> 00:36:11,870
(knocking)
484
00:36:13,672 --> 00:36:15,173
- [Millard]
Who's out there?
485
00:36:15,173 --> 00:36:18,744
- This is Sheriff
Lamar Potts from
over in Coweta.
486
00:36:18,744 --> 00:36:21,046
I'm looking for
Mrs. Wilson Turner.
487
00:36:25,083 --> 00:36:26,852
- Did you say Coweta?
488
00:36:28,454 --> 00:36:29,288
- Yes sir.
489
00:36:33,124 --> 00:36:35,126
- That's Julia over
there, Sheriff.
490
00:36:40,131 --> 00:36:42,200
- You weren't easy
to find, Mrs. Turner.
491
00:36:42,601 --> 00:36:44,436
Sheriff Threadgill
said you might be here
492
00:36:44,436 --> 00:36:45,437
at your uncle's place.
493
00:36:45,571 --> 00:36:49,107
- Well, Sheriff, now,
we ain't hidin'
from the law.
494
00:36:49,107 --> 00:36:51,577
We just feel
somethin' awful might've
happened to Wilson,
495
00:36:51,577 --> 00:36:53,945
and we're afraid
whoever done it just
496
00:36:53,945 --> 00:36:56,147
might not
be finished yet.
497
00:36:56,147 --> 00:36:58,917
- Yes sir,
I realize that.
498
00:36:58,917 --> 00:37:01,387
- Wilson didn't mean to
steal that cow, Sheriff.
499
00:37:01,387 --> 00:37:03,955
He tried to find
honest work.
500
00:37:03,955 --> 00:37:07,293
Mr. Wallace put out the
word, nobody'd hire him.
501
00:37:07,293 --> 00:37:10,228
- Mrs. Turner, I'm not
here to arrest anybody.
502
00:37:11,096 --> 00:37:13,164
- I ain't seen Wilson
for five days now.
503
00:37:14,099 --> 00:37:16,502
I'm scared, Sheriff,
I'm real scared.
504
00:37:17,636 --> 00:37:18,670
You ain't found
him, have ya?
505
00:37:19,137 --> 00:37:21,473
- No ma'am, but
I'm trying to.
506
00:37:22,808 --> 00:37:27,078
Mrs. Turner, I wonder
if I could have a piece
507
00:37:27,078 --> 00:37:29,315
of your
husband's clothing?
508
00:37:30,282 --> 00:37:31,249
- What for?
509
00:37:31,417 --> 00:37:32,318
- Our bloodhounds.
510
00:37:33,652 --> 00:37:36,988
(dramatic string music)
511
00:38:07,285 --> 00:38:08,153
- Lamar.
512
00:38:08,153 --> 00:38:09,688
- Hmm?
513
00:38:09,688 --> 00:38:11,156
- Are you alright?
514
00:38:11,156 --> 00:38:11,990
- Mm hmm.
515
00:38:13,659 --> 00:38:15,060
I want him, J.H.
516
00:38:16,662 --> 00:38:17,496
- Wallace?
517
00:38:21,199 --> 00:38:23,535
- He ain't walkin'
away from this.
518
00:38:25,971 --> 00:38:29,808
(malevolent
orchestral music)
519
00:39:15,253 --> 00:39:19,024
- Lord... have
mercy on me.
520
00:39:19,257 --> 00:39:22,428
(malevolent
orchestral music)
521
00:39:27,733 --> 00:39:30,268
- Alright, Sheriff
Lamar Potts.
522
00:39:31,603 --> 00:39:33,405
Come get me now.
523
00:40:11,810 --> 00:40:13,479
You boys do
a good job.
524
00:40:14,279 --> 00:40:16,482
Scrape it clean,
right down to the dirt.
525
00:40:17,483 --> 00:40:19,451
When you're finished,
get back to the fields.
526
00:40:20,185 --> 00:40:21,987
I got business
in Coweta.
527
00:40:22,320 --> 00:40:24,255
- Yes sir, Mr. Wallace.
- Yes sir, Mr. Wallace.
528
00:40:49,014 --> 00:40:51,517
- You fellas are here
kinda early this mornin'
aren't ya?
529
00:40:51,517 --> 00:40:53,351
- Yeah, didn't want to
miss nothin', Sheriff,
530
00:40:53,351 --> 00:40:56,054
not with this
Wallace case on hand.
531
00:40:56,054 --> 00:40:57,188
- Me neither.
532
00:40:58,524 --> 00:40:59,825
- Good mornin'.
533
00:41:18,076 --> 00:41:19,077
- Thank you, Sheriff.
534
00:41:22,247 --> 00:41:24,750
- Hey, Luther, don't
you be cheatin' Woody.
535
00:41:25,651 --> 00:41:26,652
- Thank you, Sheriff.
536
00:41:27,218 --> 00:41:29,688
- Lamar, Wallace's
attorney just called
537
00:41:29,688 --> 00:41:31,557
from Meriwether.
They're bringin' him in.
538
00:41:37,863 --> 00:41:39,064
Here they come.
539
00:41:40,832 --> 00:41:42,333
You ain't gonna believe
this, they drove over
540
00:41:42,333 --> 00:41:43,368
in the chase car.
541
00:41:49,575 --> 00:41:51,342
- I wish you boys would
lighten it up a little.
542
00:41:51,342 --> 00:41:54,245
I've seen brighter
faces at a train wreck.
543
00:41:55,013 --> 00:41:58,383
Look at old Hardy, man's
about to pop a vein.
544
00:41:58,383 --> 00:42:00,051
- Now, John,
do me a favor.
545
00:42:00,051 --> 00:42:02,387
Don't get brassy in there,
not with Sheriff Potts.
546
00:42:02,387 --> 00:42:05,256
- Just relax, counselor.
Everything's under control.
547
00:42:12,063 --> 00:42:14,432
Sheriff Potts, this
is a real pleasure.
548
00:42:14,432 --> 00:42:16,602
I've been wantin'
to meet you for
quite a while.
549
00:42:16,602 --> 00:42:17,736
- Are these
your clothes?
550
00:42:19,871 --> 00:42:20,706
- That's right.
551
00:42:20,806 --> 00:42:22,440
- Wanna explain the
bloodstains on 'em?
552
00:42:24,710 --> 00:42:27,646
- Sure, I was
out ridin',
553
00:42:28,880 --> 00:42:30,982
and I cut myself
on a briar.
554
00:42:31,650 --> 00:42:32,217
See?
555
00:42:34,653 --> 00:42:37,288
- Otwell, bring in
Steve Smith.
556
00:42:41,660 --> 00:42:44,996
Steve, is this the
man you saw beating
Wilson Turner?
557
00:42:45,631 --> 00:42:46,464
- Yes sir.
558
00:42:47,966 --> 00:42:49,968
That one too.
He drove the car.
559
00:42:51,637 --> 00:42:52,938
- Wallace, you
are under arrest
560
00:42:52,938 --> 00:42:55,173
for the kidnapping and
murder of Wilson Turner.
561
00:42:55,173 --> 00:42:56,007
- [Counselor] Now
just a minute.
562
00:42:56,007 --> 00:42:56,942
- Murder? What murder?
563
00:42:56,942 --> 00:42:57,809
Where's the body?
564
00:42:58,109 --> 00:43:00,478
- Man, do you
realize who it is
you're handcuffin'?
565
00:43:00,478 --> 00:43:02,180
- I realize who
might be next.
566
00:43:02,814 --> 00:43:04,115
Are you
Herring Sivell?
567
00:43:04,115 --> 00:43:04,816
- Yes sir.
568
00:43:04,816 --> 00:43:05,751
- Is that your car?
569
00:43:05,751 --> 00:43:06,317
- Yes sir.
570
00:43:06,317 --> 00:43:07,085
- Same charges.
571
00:43:07,085 --> 00:43:08,486
- Where's the body?
572
00:43:08,486 --> 00:43:11,657
- Now John, don't worry.
I'll see a judge,
arrange bail.
573
00:43:12,023 --> 00:43:13,424
- Ain't gonna
be no bail.
574
00:43:13,424 --> 00:43:14,793
- That's not for
you to say.
575
00:43:16,494 --> 00:43:17,829
- There ain't gonna
be no bail.
576
00:43:18,463 --> 00:43:20,666
Otwell, take 'em
to county jail.
577
00:43:21,833 --> 00:43:26,004
- Sheriff, you're gonna
be very embarrassed
about this.
578
00:43:29,340 --> 00:43:31,710
- I'm impounding
Sivell's car
for evidence.
579
00:43:32,143 --> 00:43:33,611
If you men would
like a ride home,
580
00:43:33,611 --> 00:43:35,613
I'll have one
of my men take you
back to Meriwether.
581
00:43:35,847 --> 00:43:38,984
- We can arrange our
own transportation,
thank you.
582
00:43:38,984 --> 00:43:40,652
If I might
use your phone?
583
00:43:40,652 --> 00:43:41,619
- Help yourself.
584
00:43:50,862 --> 00:43:52,698
Do the license
numbers check out?
585
00:43:52,698 --> 00:43:54,700
- It's the one that
ran Turner down.
586
00:43:54,700 --> 00:43:56,534
Drove it right up
under our noses.
587
00:43:56,534 --> 00:43:57,535
- Blood all over.
588
00:43:58,469 --> 00:44:00,138
- You can see where they
tried to wash it out.
589
00:44:00,138 --> 00:44:01,539
Not very hard,
I might add.
590
00:44:02,340 --> 00:44:03,809
That's not all.
591
00:44:04,342 --> 00:44:05,543
Look what Wallace
brought with him.
592
00:44:07,979 --> 00:44:10,081
Still traces of blood
left on the cylinder.
593
00:44:10,882 --> 00:44:12,918
- We got enough
blood already,
594
00:44:12,918 --> 00:44:15,220
what we need is the
body it came from.
595
00:44:15,721 --> 00:44:18,356
Without that,
Wallace goes free.
596
00:44:19,157 --> 00:44:21,492
Now, I want you to
organize a search posse
597
00:44:22,160 --> 00:44:24,162
and ask any citizens
to help you with 'em.
598
00:44:24,830 --> 00:44:27,065
And ask them to do
it as a personal
favor to me.
599
00:44:28,066 --> 00:44:31,937
If that's not enough,
tell 'em there's a
500 dollar reward.
600
00:44:40,511 --> 00:44:41,346
- Lamar.
601
00:44:43,548 --> 00:44:45,616
Okay, I got 'em broke
down into teams.
602
00:44:45,616 --> 00:44:48,253
Location captain for
each, command center
in the field.
603
00:44:48,253 --> 00:44:50,121
Everyone of them's
here 'cause you
asked for it.
604
00:44:50,121 --> 00:44:50,956
- Good.
605
00:44:52,023 --> 00:44:53,258
Hello fellas.
606
00:44:53,258 --> 00:44:54,259
(all greeting)
607
00:44:54,926 --> 00:44:57,528
There's a man who thinks
he's above the law.
608
00:44:58,296 --> 00:45:00,698
Killed a fella
in our county.
609
00:45:02,433 --> 00:45:04,202
Thinks he's gonna
get away with it.
610
00:45:05,203 --> 00:45:08,273
We're gonna see that
he don't, alright?
611
00:45:08,639 --> 00:45:10,241
(crowd agreeing)
612
00:45:11,609 --> 00:45:12,610
Let's do it.
613
00:45:17,883 --> 00:45:18,716
- Lamar.
614
00:45:19,284 --> 00:45:20,118
- [Lamar] Elzie!
615
00:45:21,452 --> 00:45:22,453
How you doin'?
616
00:45:23,254 --> 00:45:24,923
- Elzie Hancock.
What's an old revenuer
617
00:45:24,923 --> 00:45:26,825
like you doin'
out here today?
618
00:45:26,825 --> 00:45:28,059
- You wanna foot race
around the block?
619
00:45:28,426 --> 00:45:31,096
- Fact is I called
for Elzie myself,
620
00:45:31,096 --> 00:45:33,899
made a special request
to the Governor for him.
621
00:45:33,899 --> 00:45:35,466
He ain't nothing
but the best tracker
622
00:45:35,466 --> 00:45:36,768
in the state
of Georgia.
623
00:45:37,135 --> 00:45:38,303
- Hey, Elzie,
ain't you the one
624
00:45:38,303 --> 00:45:40,671
gunned down
Wallace's uncle,
old man Strickland?
625
00:45:40,671 --> 00:45:44,075
- Yeah, I laid for him
by that hundred horse
still of his,
626
00:45:44,075 --> 00:45:46,778
he went down firing,
took a piece out
of my elbow.
627
00:45:46,778 --> 00:45:48,113
- I see you got your
raidin' clothes on there.
628
00:45:48,113 --> 00:45:49,114
You want an
assignment?
629
00:45:49,147 --> 00:45:50,949
- Nah, I got some
ideas of my own.
630
00:45:50,949 --> 00:45:52,683
- Okay, well boys,
we best hit it.
631
00:45:52,683 --> 00:45:55,653
- Lamar, I know a thing
or two about the Kingdom.
632
00:45:56,121 --> 00:45:57,655
Those kin of Wallace
don't mind shootin',
633
00:45:57,655 --> 00:45:59,424
they don't care
who they shoot.
634
00:46:00,191 --> 00:46:01,793
You stay sharp
out there.
635
00:46:02,027 --> 00:46:05,496
- Yes sir,
you do likewise.
636
00:46:19,510 --> 00:46:23,348
(dramatic
orchestral music)
637
00:47:04,322 --> 00:47:06,057
- That is some big
territory out there.
638
00:47:06,057 --> 00:47:07,758
- Any help from
Collier and his men?
639
00:47:08,159 --> 00:47:09,928
- No, deputies
are all busy.
640
00:47:09,928 --> 00:47:12,230
Collier's in bed,
heart problems.
641
00:47:12,230 --> 00:47:13,899
- Meanin' he ain't
got the heart for it.
642
00:47:15,333 --> 00:47:16,001
- What else?
643
00:47:16,401 --> 00:47:17,402
- Well, there is
this one thing.
644
00:47:18,103 --> 00:47:20,371
It seems that there's
this fortune teller
645
00:47:20,371 --> 00:47:24,842
over in Heard
County. Her name is
Mayhayley Lancaster.
646
00:47:24,842 --> 00:47:27,212
Now, rumor has it that
Wallace sets a good deal
647
00:47:27,212 --> 00:47:29,714
of store in her, pays
her an occasional visit.
648
00:47:34,752 --> 00:47:36,287
Well, at least we know
he's superstitious.
649
00:47:37,088 --> 00:47:39,590
- [Jim] Lamar Potts,
come in, Jim Hillin.
650
00:47:43,861 --> 00:47:45,096
- Yeah, Jim.
651
00:47:45,096 --> 00:47:47,132
- [Jim] I got a gang
of road workers here.
652
00:47:47,132 --> 00:47:49,367
They were out here
workin' last Tuesday,
653
00:47:49,367 --> 00:47:51,102
almost got run
over by the chase.
654
00:47:51,102 --> 00:47:53,271
Thing is, they said
they saw two cars
655
00:47:53,271 --> 00:47:56,807
in pursuit and only
one car comin' back.
656
00:47:56,807 --> 00:48:00,545
Sivell's tan four door,
it was the only one
on the return.
657
00:48:01,146 --> 00:48:02,914
- Any ID on
the second car?
658
00:48:03,248 --> 00:48:06,484
- Not much, only that it
was an older dark model.
659
00:48:06,484 --> 00:48:08,486
These boys were hittin'
the dirt when it flew by.
660
00:48:09,087 --> 00:48:10,588
- Ask around, see
if you can find out
661
00:48:10,588 --> 00:48:12,390
who was driving it, Jim.
662
00:48:13,624 --> 00:48:14,625
- I'll try.
663
00:48:15,160 --> 00:48:17,895
Folks around here
ain't real easy to
converse with.
664
00:48:18,063 --> 00:48:19,164
- Well, do the
best you can.
665
00:48:20,298 --> 00:48:22,467
Otwell, did you
get directions
666
00:48:22,467 --> 00:48:25,670
on how to find that
Mayhayley Lancaster woman?
667
00:48:25,670 --> 00:48:26,771
- Well, yeah.
668
00:48:28,273 --> 00:48:30,942
- J.H., you're
in charge here.
669
00:48:30,942 --> 00:48:32,810
Keep it going as long
as there's daylight.
670
00:48:32,810 --> 00:48:33,644
- Right.
671
00:48:33,644 --> 00:48:34,612
- Let's go.
672
00:48:45,023 --> 00:48:47,692
(motor revving)
673
00:49:15,653 --> 00:49:17,855
(knocking)
674
00:49:43,348 --> 00:49:44,849
(knocking)
675
00:49:44,849 --> 00:49:47,018
(barking)
676
00:49:49,187 --> 00:49:51,322
Mayhayley Lancaster.
677
00:49:51,322 --> 00:49:52,857
- [Mayhayley]
Who is it?
678
00:49:52,857 --> 00:49:54,259
- The law.
679
00:49:54,259 --> 00:49:57,428
- [Mayhayley] Who's
law? God's law?
680
00:50:00,365 --> 00:50:02,900
- I'm Sheriff Lamar
Potts, Coweta County.
681
00:50:02,900 --> 00:50:04,602
Sergeant J.C. Otwell.
682
00:50:11,742 --> 00:50:13,578
- I can't be too
careful these days,
683
00:50:13,578 --> 00:50:16,013
there's just too
much badness about.
684
00:50:16,447 --> 00:50:18,616
I've been robbed
22 times.
685
00:50:19,784 --> 00:50:21,052
Dogs, get!
686
00:50:21,052 --> 00:50:23,221
(barking)
687
00:50:25,590 --> 00:50:27,958
This is my sister,
Sally Lancaster.
688
00:50:28,726 --> 00:50:29,927
(nervous laughing)
689
00:50:33,698 --> 00:50:36,934
- Miss Mayhayley, I
understand John Wallace
690
00:50:36,934 --> 00:50:38,303
sometimes visits you.
691
00:50:38,703 --> 00:50:40,105
- He killed
Wilson Turner.
692
00:50:40,371 --> 00:50:41,106
- Did he
tell you that?
693
00:50:41,372 --> 00:50:42,707
- Well, he
didn't have to.
694
00:50:43,474 --> 00:50:45,743
I am an oracle
of the ages.
695
00:50:46,611 --> 00:50:50,815
So was I born
and so do I live.
696
00:50:51,082 --> 00:50:52,650
- Yes ma'am.
697
00:50:52,650 --> 00:50:55,120
Well, we're looking for
Wilson Turner's body
698
00:50:55,120 --> 00:50:57,755
and if there's any
information that you
could give us...
699
00:50:57,755 --> 00:50:59,824
- Well, it's a
dollar and a dime.
700
00:51:00,725 --> 00:51:03,161
- A dollar and a
dime? What for?
701
00:51:03,161 --> 00:51:04,895
- Well, it's a dollar
for me, and then
702
00:51:04,895 --> 00:51:07,132
it's a dime for
my dogs.
703
00:51:07,132 --> 00:51:08,099
- Yes ma'am.
704
00:51:08,099 --> 00:51:09,800
- Okay, alright,
over here.
705
00:51:12,803 --> 00:51:13,304
- Right here?
706
00:51:13,804 --> 00:51:14,839
- Right here.
707
00:51:42,032 --> 00:51:45,035
I see four men,
708
00:51:47,438 --> 00:51:49,374
three alive,
709
00:51:51,442 --> 00:51:52,443
one not.
710
00:51:56,381 --> 00:51:57,882
I see them moving.
711
00:52:00,651 --> 00:52:03,954
Let destruction come
upon the evil one
712
00:52:03,954 --> 00:52:07,525
and into his own
pit let him fall.
713
00:52:13,030 --> 00:52:16,567
I see fire...
and water,
714
00:52:18,503 --> 00:52:21,706
and fire...
and water.
715
00:52:34,719 --> 00:52:36,721
I've told you
all I can.
716
00:52:38,723 --> 00:52:41,892
- Yes ma'am.
I appreciate it.
717
00:52:51,202 --> 00:52:52,737
- Hey Sheriff...
718
00:52:53,671 --> 00:52:57,074
Blessed is the man
who pities the poor.
719
00:52:58,343 --> 00:53:01,846
The Lord will
deliver him in his
time of trouble.
720
00:53:11,722 --> 00:53:13,090
- How'd it go
with Mayhayley?
721
00:53:13,090 --> 00:53:15,025
- Oh, nothin' definite.
722
00:53:15,025 --> 00:53:17,127
Any word on
that second car?
723
00:53:17,127 --> 00:53:19,029
- Well, if
anybody's seen it,
they ain't talkin'.
724
00:53:20,265 --> 00:53:21,299
- What about the posse?
725
00:53:21,299 --> 00:53:22,533
- Well, we pulled
two bicycles
726
00:53:22,533 --> 00:53:24,769
and a box spring mattress
out of Greenville Lake.
727
00:53:24,769 --> 00:53:27,305
Euger Simpson got bit
reachin' in a hollow log.
728
00:53:27,305 --> 00:53:28,606
Aside from that...
729
00:53:28,806 --> 00:53:31,876
- Well, get the men
back out tomorrow,
as many as will go.
730
00:53:31,876 --> 00:53:33,644
And tell Euger to watch
where he's reachin'.
731
00:53:51,128 --> 00:53:53,298
(ringing)
732
00:53:54,999 --> 00:53:56,334
Sheriff's Office.
733
00:53:57,134 --> 00:53:59,570
- [unknown voice]
Tom Strickland.
734
00:54:23,361 --> 00:54:25,863
- Uh oh, we got
the whole family.
735
00:54:25,863 --> 00:54:27,498
That ain't no
reunion picnic.
736
00:54:43,481 --> 00:54:45,282
- I don't want a
bloodbath now.
737
00:54:45,282 --> 00:54:47,352
Take off your guns and
leave 'em in the car.
738
00:54:52,690 --> 00:54:53,791
- Has he gone crazy?
739
00:55:03,368 --> 00:55:04,802
- The first one
that touches
740
00:55:04,802 --> 00:55:08,373
one of my deputies,
I'm gonna kill him.
741
00:55:11,476 --> 00:55:13,411
Now, I want
Tom Strickland.
742
00:55:14,144 --> 00:55:17,314
You can bring him out,
or I'll go in after him.
743
00:55:17,848 --> 00:55:19,717
- We're all
Strickland's.
744
00:55:19,717 --> 00:55:23,654
If you wanna take
him, you're gonna
have to take us.
745
00:55:24,822 --> 00:55:27,157
- Well, that's
just fine with me.
746
00:55:27,157 --> 00:55:29,259
All you gotta do
is stand in my way.
747
00:55:34,064 --> 00:55:37,735
(dramatic
orchestral music)
748
00:56:00,958 --> 00:56:02,593
- [Tom] You
ain't takin' me.
749
00:56:10,468 --> 00:56:12,069
Ya ain't takin' me.
750
00:56:14,371 --> 00:56:15,906
You ain't takin'
me anyplace.
751
00:56:24,449 --> 00:56:26,884
Ya ain't takin'
me to no jail.
752
00:56:26,884 --> 00:56:28,619
I told ya,
I ain't goin'.
753
00:56:28,619 --> 00:56:30,821
You in the Kingdom
now, Sheriff.
754
00:56:31,456 --> 00:56:33,057
- You know somethin',
Strickland?
755
00:56:33,724 --> 00:56:35,926
I don't care about
your Kingdom.
756
00:56:39,396 --> 00:56:41,231
- You ain't takin'
me to no jail.
757
00:56:42,500 --> 00:56:44,101
Stop him! Stop him!
758
00:56:45,302 --> 00:56:47,738
Don't let him take me
out of the Kingdom.
759
00:56:48,606 --> 00:56:51,642
Stop him! John
won't like this.
760
00:56:52,643 --> 00:56:53,844
Jody, stop him!
761
00:56:56,481 --> 00:56:59,817
Don't let him take
me to jail, stop him.
762
00:57:22,006 --> 00:57:24,509
John! John, they're
gonna lock me up!
763
00:57:24,509 --> 00:57:26,511
You gotta do
somethin', John!
764
00:57:26,944 --> 00:57:28,946
- Don't tell 'em
nothin'! Just keep
your mouth shut!
765
00:57:29,279 --> 00:57:30,280
You hear me?
766
00:57:31,315 --> 00:57:32,216
- Where're you
takin' me?
767
00:57:32,216 --> 00:57:33,551
There's cells back there.
768
00:57:33,551 --> 00:57:35,620
- No, we got a
special place for you.
769
00:57:35,620 --> 00:57:37,121
- I don't need no
special place.
770
00:57:37,121 --> 00:57:38,523
Put me in with John.
771
00:57:38,989 --> 00:57:40,491
What're you gonna
do to me?
772
00:58:24,068 --> 00:58:26,771
Let me out!
773
00:58:27,271 --> 00:58:29,406
- Well, we've only
covered a third of
the territory.
774
00:58:29,406 --> 00:58:31,075
And that's if he hid
it in the Kingdom.
775
00:58:31,075 --> 00:58:32,342
- We gotta keep goin'.
776
00:58:32,342 --> 00:58:34,511
I can't hold
Wallace forever
without evidence.
777
00:58:34,511 --> 00:58:36,747
- Well, we got enough
to prosecute kidnapping
and assault.
778
00:58:36,747 --> 00:58:39,083
- He killed a man.
That's what he's
gonna pay for.
779
00:58:39,950 --> 00:58:44,354
- Sheriff...
that was County.
Tom Strickland broke.
780
00:58:44,354 --> 00:58:45,590
He wants to talk.
781
00:58:46,591 --> 00:58:48,926
(whistling)
782
00:59:04,642 --> 00:59:06,143
- Your cousin talked.
783
00:59:07,812 --> 00:59:09,446
Gave us all the
details about him
784
00:59:09,446 --> 00:59:11,448
and Henry Mobley
in that second car.
785
00:59:15,385 --> 00:59:16,220
- That right?
786
00:59:16,486 --> 00:59:17,154
Uh-huh.
787
00:59:17,822 --> 00:59:20,891
- About how you waved
him off at Sunset,
788
00:59:20,891 --> 00:59:23,293
how you come back by
with Turner's body,
789
00:59:23,293 --> 00:59:26,096
transferred it
to Mobley's car,
790
00:59:26,096 --> 00:59:28,465
took the back road
to your place,
791
00:59:28,465 --> 00:59:32,469
stopped at your pasture
gap, slung Wilson Turner
792
00:59:32,469 --> 00:59:34,972
over your shoulder and
walked off in the woods.
793
00:59:37,341 --> 00:59:39,910
(laughing)
- Well...
794
00:59:39,910 --> 00:59:41,979
- You have to
understand, Sheriff,
795
00:59:41,979 --> 00:59:45,182
Tom Strickland's kind
of the family fool.
796
00:59:45,182 --> 00:59:46,984
Little pressure and he's
liable to say anything.
797
00:59:46,984 --> 00:59:48,753
I wouldn't get to
carried away with it.
798
00:59:48,753 --> 00:59:50,154
- What'd he say
about me?
799
00:59:51,488 --> 00:59:52,489
- Everything.
800
00:59:52,690 --> 00:59:54,191
- He didn't say I
killed nobody, did he?
801
00:59:54,191 --> 00:59:56,293
I just done the drivin'.
I didn't kill nobody.
802
00:59:56,293 --> 00:59:57,995
- Shut up,
you stupid fool.
803
00:59:58,696 --> 00:59:59,764
You 'member that
poker shootin'!
804
00:59:59,764 --> 01:00:01,031
You 'member who
got you off?
805
01:00:01,531 --> 01:00:02,332
You owe me.
806
01:00:02,499 --> 01:00:04,669
- But I didn't kill
Turner, you did that.
807
01:00:04,669 --> 01:00:06,270
I'm not gonna
hang for you.
808
01:00:06,270 --> 01:00:07,504
- Shut up I said!
809
01:00:08,272 --> 01:00:09,807
- I don't know, John.
810
01:00:10,841 --> 01:00:13,443
Looks like the Kingdom
is beginnin' to crumble.
811
01:00:20,217 --> 01:00:22,653
- It don't make no
difference what they say.
812
01:00:24,288 --> 01:00:26,056
You still don't
have a body.
813
01:00:26,857 --> 01:00:29,694
- Sheriff, Elzie
just checked in.
814
01:00:29,694 --> 01:00:31,662
He thinks he
found somethin'.
815
01:00:37,301 --> 01:00:40,037
- You remember Elzie
Hancock, don't you, John?
816
01:00:41,338 --> 01:00:42,840
He's the one that
got your uncle.
817
01:00:53,383 --> 01:00:55,720
- Now, there's two sets
of shoe prints here
818
01:00:55,720 --> 01:00:57,321
dug in rather deep.
819
01:00:58,255 --> 01:00:59,724
You can even see
their nail marks
820
01:00:59,724 --> 01:01:01,826
on the sole, trade
marks on the heel.
821
01:01:02,727 --> 01:01:05,696
Now, either they was
two big men, or--
822
01:01:05,696 --> 01:01:08,232
- Or they was carrying
something heavy.
823
01:01:08,232 --> 01:01:09,666
- Probably carrying
it between 'em.
824
01:01:09,666 --> 01:01:12,569
This second set
follows almost right
on top of the first.
825
01:01:13,003 --> 01:01:17,174
Now, look what happens
when the second man
does swing out.
826
01:01:19,543 --> 01:01:20,911
Brush between 'em
snapped off
827
01:01:20,911 --> 01:01:22,012
about four feet
from the ground.
828
01:01:23,013 --> 01:01:25,415
Whatever they was
carryin' was hangin'
on a pole.
829
01:01:26,083 --> 01:01:27,617
- Two poachers
haulin' out a deer?
830
01:01:28,185 --> 01:01:30,921
- Would you bother
to wrap a deer in
a burlap blanket?
831
01:01:31,455 --> 01:01:35,625
Now, correct me if I'm
wrong, but that is
burlap, isn't it?
832
01:01:36,593 --> 01:01:38,462
There's also a
set of mule tracks
up in the road
833
01:01:38,462 --> 01:01:40,731
runnin' parallel
to the stream.
834
01:01:40,731 --> 01:01:42,432
Somebody up there's
watchin' out.
835
01:01:43,868 --> 01:01:44,869
- Where's it all lead?
836
01:01:45,535 --> 01:01:47,637
- Well, trail starts
about a mile back,
837
01:01:47,637 --> 01:01:50,540
ends just a little
ways ahead comin'
out on the road.
838
01:01:51,108 --> 01:01:53,443
Traffic's wiped out
the tracks from there.
839
01:01:53,443 --> 01:01:55,780
That road leads
straight back to
Wallace territory.
840
01:01:56,146 --> 01:02:00,885
My guess is they
brought the body here,
got rid of it,
841
01:02:00,885 --> 01:02:03,120
went up on the road,
and walked back home.
842
01:02:04,955 --> 01:02:06,390
- Got rid of it where?
843
01:02:06,656 --> 01:02:10,060
- There. Weighted
it down, dumped it.
844
01:02:11,128 --> 01:02:13,130
One of those
deep holes.
845
01:02:13,931 --> 01:02:17,567
- That Mayhayley woman
did say somethin'
about water.
846
01:02:18,468 --> 01:02:20,270
- You're not gettin'
superstitious?
847
01:02:20,971 --> 01:02:22,973
- No, just eager.
848
01:02:24,909 --> 01:02:26,510
- Get some drag teams.
849
01:02:40,290 --> 01:02:41,291
(whistling)
850
01:02:43,260 --> 01:02:45,629
- Lamar, we're
comin' up empty.
851
01:02:45,629 --> 01:02:47,497
- We might be cuttin'
ourselves short here.
852
01:02:47,497 --> 01:02:49,366
Suppose they didn't just
dump it and go home.
853
01:02:49,366 --> 01:02:51,168
Suppose they crossed
over and kept goin'.
854
01:02:51,168 --> 01:02:52,336
- Well, then we're
in a mess of trouble.
855
01:02:52,336 --> 01:02:54,271
Ain't nothing over
there but mud and swamp,
856
01:02:54,271 --> 01:02:56,006
suck a man up,
never give him back.
857
01:02:57,507 --> 01:02:59,009
- I think I'm gonna
take a little walk.
858
01:02:59,009 --> 01:03:00,277
- Well, you best take
some men with you.
859
01:03:00,277 --> 01:03:02,279
- No, keep 'em
on the stream.
860
01:03:02,279 --> 01:03:03,881
Drag it every foot
of that trail.
861
01:03:14,058 --> 01:03:15,159
(plaintive
orchestral music)
862
01:03:37,147 --> 01:03:40,885
- Is it true what
they said about
that 500 dollars?
863
01:03:42,152 --> 01:03:43,153
- It's true.
864
01:03:44,254 --> 01:03:46,223
- I've been wantin'
to talk to you.
865
01:03:48,392 --> 01:03:50,760
First time you've been
out here by yourself.
866
01:03:53,998 --> 01:03:56,533
I'm the one that
called you and gave
you Strickland's name.
867
01:03:56,934 --> 01:04:00,604
- I appreciate that.
But the reward is for
Turner's body.
868
01:04:02,772 --> 01:04:03,773
- You know who I am?
869
01:04:06,110 --> 01:04:08,578
But you wouldn't go
tell nobody, would you?
870
01:04:08,578 --> 01:04:09,779
- Not if you
didn't want, no.
871
01:04:10,080 --> 01:04:13,083
- Now, you understand
if I'm seen anywhere
near you...
872
01:04:14,051 --> 01:04:15,953
- I'll have somebody
else deliver the money.
873
01:04:16,620 --> 01:04:19,256
- Not to me.
Not in Meriwether.
874
01:04:20,790 --> 01:04:22,559
To my folks over
there across the line.
875
01:04:23,860 --> 01:04:25,062
- You have my word.
876
01:04:32,869 --> 01:04:36,106
- Well, Wallace
burned the body.
877
01:04:36,106 --> 01:04:38,742
Throwed it in a
liquor still pit, and
878
01:04:38,742 --> 01:04:43,047
doused it with
shine and set it off.
879
01:04:44,881 --> 01:04:48,218
Had two colored field
hands a helpin' him.
880
01:04:49,619 --> 01:04:52,957
Albert Brooks
and a feller named
Robert Lee Gates.
881
01:04:54,458 --> 01:04:56,961
You could see them
flames for miles.
882
01:05:01,298 --> 01:05:02,499
- Albert and
Robert Lee?
883
01:05:03,500 --> 01:05:05,402
- They's back there
in the fields, workin'.
884
01:05:08,738 --> 01:05:09,273
- Thank you.
885
01:05:11,141 --> 01:05:15,279
- Now, Sheriff,
I want you to
understand right now,
886
01:05:15,980 --> 01:05:18,782
I just put my life
in your hands.
887
01:05:23,520 --> 01:05:27,324
(plaintive
orchestral music)
888
01:05:30,627 --> 01:05:31,828
- Come on.
889
01:05:32,662 --> 01:05:36,000
(plaintive
orchestral music)
890
01:05:42,206 --> 01:05:44,541
(whinnying)
891
01:06:06,330 --> 01:06:07,831
- Are you
Robert Lee Gates?
892
01:06:10,467 --> 01:06:11,035
- Yes sir.
893
01:06:13,303 --> 01:06:15,072
- You ready to talk
about burnin' that body?
894
01:06:20,644 --> 01:06:22,579
- Yes sir, I am.
895
01:06:23,813 --> 01:06:25,715
- [Albert] We stacked the
wood three layers high.
896
01:06:25,715 --> 01:06:29,886
Another'n on top.
Soaked it down with
every drop we had.
897
01:06:31,055 --> 01:06:33,923
Then Mr. Wallace
put the torch to it.
898
01:06:35,092 --> 01:06:37,227
He had us come back
the next mornin'
899
01:06:37,227 --> 01:06:39,596
with sugar sacks
and shovels.
900
01:06:39,596 --> 01:06:41,898
Said make sure and
scrape it clean.
901
01:06:41,898 --> 01:06:44,168
- Yeah, well, you
sure done that.
902
01:06:44,168 --> 01:06:46,336
- What'd you do
with the ashes?
903
01:06:46,336 --> 01:06:49,073
- Took 'em down to the
stream, spilled 'em in.
904
01:06:49,073 --> 01:06:51,908
- Show me exactly where,
walk the same way.
905
01:06:52,576 --> 01:06:55,345
You boys don't move,
don't disturb anything.
906
01:06:55,345 --> 01:06:56,180
Elzie.
907
01:06:58,082 --> 01:07:01,185
- Right along here,
down by that tree.
908
01:07:05,255 --> 01:07:08,758
Stood right here,
spilled 'em in.
909
01:07:33,250 --> 01:07:35,119
- Fire and water.
Whew...
910
01:07:37,254 --> 01:07:41,125
- He beat us.
He's just gonna
up and walk away.
911
01:07:52,236 --> 01:07:52,902
- Lamar...
912
01:07:53,470 --> 01:07:54,003
- Yeah.
913
01:08:09,986 --> 01:08:10,820
-Look.
914
01:08:34,878 --> 01:08:35,812
Bone chips.
915
01:08:44,688 --> 01:08:47,191
- Would you men
be willin' to testify
that these
916
01:08:47,191 --> 01:08:50,294
are the final
remains of the body
of Wilson Turner?
917
01:08:56,200 --> 01:08:57,033
- Yes sir.
918
01:09:03,640 --> 01:09:04,474
- Yes sir.
919
01:09:11,215 --> 01:09:12,216
- Hey, boys!
920
01:09:13,917 --> 01:09:15,552
We got him!
921
01:09:15,552 --> 01:09:18,087
(cheering)
922
01:09:18,087 --> 01:09:20,424
- We got serious
problems, John.
923
01:09:20,424 --> 01:09:22,058
Those field hands
of yours
924
01:09:22,058 --> 01:09:24,661
took Sheriff Potts
on a grand tour.
925
01:09:24,828 --> 01:09:27,163
The pasture, the
well, the liquor pit,
926
01:09:27,163 --> 01:09:29,065
the entire
trail of crime.
927
01:09:29,533 --> 01:09:31,901
Potts snatched up
every piece of
linking evidence.
928
01:09:31,901 --> 01:09:34,070
They even lowered a
man into the well.
929
01:09:34,070 --> 01:09:36,105
Found a piece of
brain you left behind,
930
01:09:36,105 --> 01:09:37,874
together with
those bone chips.
931
01:09:38,708 --> 01:09:40,410
- Pig bones,
cow brains.
932
01:09:40,410 --> 01:09:42,212
- They sent 'em to
Atlanta, the crime lab
933
01:09:42,212 --> 01:09:44,214
confirmed
they're human.
934
01:09:45,215 --> 01:09:46,115
- What human?
935
01:09:46,416 --> 01:09:49,185
- Albert and Robert Lee
are gonna testify
it was Turner.
936
01:09:52,422 --> 01:09:55,925
- In all of Georgia,
not one white man
937
01:09:55,925 --> 01:09:59,429
has ever gone to the
chair on a nigger's word,
938
01:09:59,429 --> 01:10:02,532
and they're gonna
testify against me?
939
01:10:07,771 --> 01:10:10,440
How long you think
they're gonna be
around to do that?
940
01:10:26,623 --> 01:10:28,658
- Just got confirmation
from Columbus.
941
01:10:28,658 --> 01:10:31,995
Albert and Robert Lee
arrived safely at
Muskogee Prison.
942
01:10:31,995 --> 01:10:33,797
They're in
protective custody,
943
01:10:33,797 --> 01:10:35,765
registered under
assumed names.
944
01:10:35,765 --> 01:10:37,634
They won't be moved
till you call for 'em.
945
01:10:39,068 --> 01:10:40,604
- You found homes
for the families?
946
01:10:40,604 --> 01:10:42,406
- Oh yeah, a couple
of farms in Coweta.
947
01:10:42,406 --> 01:10:44,408
Good people, know
how to keep a secret.
948
01:10:45,141 --> 01:10:47,344
- Move 'em over
there as soon as
they're loaded up
949
01:10:47,344 --> 01:10:48,678
and make sure
you're not followed.
950
01:10:48,678 --> 01:10:49,513
- Right.
951
01:10:52,148 --> 01:10:53,317
- We got
one more trip.
952
01:11:18,608 --> 01:11:20,844
(clinking)
953
01:11:27,851 --> 01:11:31,955
Ma'am, tell
Sheriff Collier
I've come for him.
954
01:11:33,122 --> 01:11:36,460
- Tell him yourself.
He's taken to his
sick bed again.
955
01:11:50,173 --> 01:11:51,174
- Don't even breathe.
956
01:11:52,709 --> 01:11:56,713
Otwell, pull the blanket
off of him real slow.
957
01:12:09,526 --> 01:12:11,995
Kind of a warm day
to be all covered up,
ain't it, Sheriff?
958
01:12:13,096 --> 01:12:17,266
- You ain't haulin'
me off like no
dirt dog criminal.
959
01:12:17,266 --> 01:12:19,603
I'm an elected official
of this county.
960
01:12:19,603 --> 01:12:20,537
I'm a Sheriff.
961
01:12:20,804 --> 01:12:26,175
- You sold that badge.
The same badge
I stand behind.
962
01:12:28,077 --> 01:12:31,247
I oughta end that
heart problem for you
right here and now.
963
01:12:38,855 --> 01:12:41,357
Have a warrant
for your arrest.
Accessory to murder.
964
01:12:41,925 --> 01:12:45,895
- I can't leave.
I gotta stay in bed.
I gotta take pills.
965
01:12:46,530 --> 01:12:48,432
- That's where
you better stay.
966
01:12:48,432 --> 01:12:52,802
You run, and
I promise you,
there ain't a place
967
01:12:52,802 --> 01:12:55,572
on God's green
earth that I won't
track you down.
968
01:13:15,759 --> 01:13:17,561
- Alright, go
ahead in there.
969
01:13:19,796 --> 01:13:21,297
- Thank you, thank
you, thank you.
970
01:13:21,998 --> 01:13:23,667
Sir, could I just
check you real quick.
971
01:13:24,300 --> 01:13:25,301
Thank you very much.
972
01:13:25,835 --> 01:13:27,103
How do, ma'am.
973
01:13:27,270 --> 01:13:29,473
Sir, could you have
the deputy check you
just real quick, please?
974
01:13:29,473 --> 01:13:31,174
Sir, can I just
check you real quick?
975
01:13:36,079 --> 01:13:38,748
- Miss Mayhayley.
Miss Sally.
976
01:13:38,748 --> 01:13:41,951
I appreciate you
comin' to testify
this mornin'.
977
01:13:42,251 --> 01:13:44,654
- Well, I's just doin'
my duty, Sheriff.
978
01:13:44,654 --> 01:13:47,090
You know, justice
must be served.
979
01:13:48,492 --> 01:13:49,959
- Miss Mayhayley,
I notice
980
01:13:49,959 --> 01:13:51,360
you have a different
hat on today.
981
01:13:52,161 --> 01:13:54,330
- Well, the other one's
from World War I.
982
01:13:55,331 --> 01:13:58,267
Belonged to
my brother. He got
killed in action.
983
01:13:58,468 --> 01:13:59,503
- Oh, I'm sorry.
984
01:13:59,803 --> 01:14:02,105
- Well, that's
alright. We still talk.
985
01:14:06,009 --> 01:14:07,511
- Miss Mayhayley,
I just bet a
hundred dollars
986
01:14:07,511 --> 01:14:09,012
he's gonna get off.
987
01:14:09,012 --> 01:14:10,514
- I got a
hundred dollars says
Wallace's guilty.
988
01:14:10,514 --> 01:14:11,548
How's that gonna go?
989
01:14:11,548 --> 01:14:13,282
- Well, I ain't sayin'.
990
01:14:13,282 --> 01:14:14,851
I don't wanna
influence this trial
991
01:14:14,851 --> 01:14:16,352
by telling what's
gonna happen.
992
01:14:16,352 --> 01:14:18,788
- J.H., let's get
these ladies some
proper seats.
993
01:14:22,492 --> 01:14:24,293
- She said I'm right,
didn't you hear her?
994
01:14:24,293 --> 01:14:26,696
- She didn't say
nothin'. Your ear is
pinned on backwards.
995
01:14:26,696 --> 01:14:28,998
- Did you boys
hear Wallace hired
A.L. Henson
996
01:14:28,998 --> 01:14:30,366
to his defense team?
997
01:14:30,366 --> 01:14:32,201
He's a slick dude
out of Atlanta.
998
01:14:32,201 --> 01:14:33,670
Folks say he could
get Sherman's March
999
01:14:33,670 --> 01:14:35,171
reduced to trespassin'.
1000
01:14:35,171 --> 01:14:36,205
- Don't mean nothin'.
1001
01:14:36,205 --> 01:14:37,541
- It does mean
somethin'.
1002
01:15:14,410 --> 01:15:16,345
- Superior Court
of Coweta County,
1003
01:15:16,345 --> 01:15:20,183
Case Number 446,
The State versus
John Wallace.
1004
01:15:20,183 --> 01:15:23,019
The Honorable Samuel
J. Boykin presiding.
1005
01:15:28,457 --> 01:15:30,627
- Court is now
in session.
1006
01:15:33,897 --> 01:15:36,399
- Gentlemen of the
jury, what the state
1007
01:15:36,399 --> 01:15:40,570
is about to contend,
is that the defendant,
John Wallace,
1008
01:15:41,605 --> 01:15:45,108
on April 20th, 1948,
1009
01:15:45,575 --> 01:15:48,411
did willfully,
feloniously,
1010
01:15:48,912 --> 01:15:50,614
and with malice
aforethought,
1011
01:15:50,614 --> 01:15:52,649
kill and murder
Wilson Turner.
1012
01:15:53,549 --> 01:15:58,487
Now, we will present to
you 38 sworn witnesses.
1013
01:15:59,255 --> 01:16:02,158
We will corroborate
their testimony
1014
01:16:02,158 --> 01:16:05,629
with 43 pieces of
physical evidence.
1015
01:16:08,064 --> 01:16:11,768
We will detail
every step of this
1016
01:16:11,768 --> 01:16:15,238
most heinous and
barbarous act.
1017
01:16:15,772 --> 01:16:19,743
I am certain you
gentlemen will, in
all good conscience,
1018
01:16:19,743 --> 01:16:24,580
have no choice but
to find John Wallace
1019
01:16:24,981 --> 01:16:29,318
guilty as charged and
sentence him to death.
1020
01:16:30,654 --> 01:16:34,323
- They had a
fallin' out over
20 gallons of liquor.
1021
01:16:34,323 --> 01:16:36,826
Wilson said Mr.
Wallace threatened him.
1022
01:16:38,161 --> 01:16:40,429
Mr. Wallace told Wilson
to get off his land
1023
01:16:40,429 --> 01:16:42,832
and if he ever seen
him again, he'd...
1024
01:16:44,367 --> 01:16:45,468
he'd kill him.
1025
01:16:45,835 --> 01:16:49,372
- You say you saw
a body in the well.
How'd you see?
1026
01:16:49,706 --> 01:16:53,710
- Crawfish's eyes
are in his tail.
Mine are in my head.
1027
01:16:54,277 --> 01:16:56,713
- You can tell what's
gonna happen in the
future, can't you?
1028
01:16:59,048 --> 01:17:02,451
Well, I'd like for
you to tell what's
gonna happen to me.
1029
01:17:02,618 --> 01:17:08,524
- Well, you look-a-here.
You might just get
what Turner got.
1030
01:17:10,727 --> 01:17:11,527
(groans)
1031
01:17:12,561 --> 01:17:13,296
(laughs)
1032
01:17:13,830 --> 01:17:15,231
- They drug that fella
out to the car door
1033
01:17:15,231 --> 01:17:17,333
and tried to
force him inside...
1034
01:17:18,367 --> 01:17:19,869
that's when Wallace
brought it down against
1035
01:17:19,869 --> 01:17:22,038
that fella's head
so hard that the
gun went off.
1036
01:17:23,707 --> 01:17:25,842
That fella never
hollered no more.
1037
01:17:26,509 --> 01:17:27,711
- Well...
1038
01:17:28,912 --> 01:17:33,817
I 'm afraid
I must agree with
the state prosecutor.
1039
01:17:33,817 --> 01:17:38,888
Your Sheriff,
Lamar Potts, has
amassed a remarkable,
1040
01:17:39,222 --> 01:17:43,226
almost incontrovertible
chain of evidence.
1041
01:17:43,226 --> 01:17:46,562
Yet one question
remains to be answered.
1042
01:17:47,897 --> 01:17:51,334
Where exactly did
Wilson Turner die?
1043
01:17:52,435 --> 01:17:55,705
We've heard testimony
he was hit on the head
1044
01:17:55,705 --> 01:17:59,743
in Coweta, then
driven to Meriwether.
1045
01:18:00,576 --> 01:18:04,080
Which county did
he actually die in?
1046
01:18:04,080 --> 01:18:06,115
If he died
in Meriwether,
1047
01:18:07,583 --> 01:18:12,088
then I submit
that Sheriff Potts
had no jurisdiction,
1048
01:18:12,088 --> 01:18:14,891
that, in fact, he made
an unlawful arrest,
1049
01:18:15,624 --> 01:18:19,628
and I will move that
this trial be transferred
1050
01:18:19,628 --> 01:18:22,631
to Meriwether or
dismissed altogether.
1051
01:18:23,399 --> 01:18:26,069
(crowd murmuring)
1052
01:18:27,303 --> 01:18:28,537
(banging)
1053
01:18:30,974 --> 01:18:33,743
Who can answer
the question of
Turner's death?
1054
01:18:33,977 --> 01:18:38,281
Only those men who
drove him out of Coweta.
1055
01:18:39,048 --> 01:18:43,286
With their testimony,
I will prove that
Turner died
1056
01:18:43,286 --> 01:18:47,090
in Meriwether,
and I will move
for dismissal.
1057
01:18:47,991 --> 01:18:52,095
Your Honor, as
my first witness,
1058
01:18:53,162 --> 01:18:56,332
I call to the stand
Mr. Henry Mobley.
1059
01:18:58,467 --> 01:19:01,270
- Your Honor, my client
refuses to testify
1060
01:19:01,270 --> 01:19:03,606
on the grounds that
it might tend to
incriminate him.
1061
01:19:06,475 --> 01:19:09,278
- In that case, Your
Honor, I call on
Mr. Herring Sivell.
1062
01:19:09,578 --> 01:19:13,016
- Your Honor, my client
refuses to testify
1063
01:19:13,016 --> 01:19:16,185
on the grounds
it might tend to
incriminate him.
1064
01:19:16,619 --> 01:19:17,954
- Mr. Thomas Strickland.
1065
01:19:19,322 --> 01:19:23,759
- Your Honor, my client
refuses to testify
on the grounds...
1066
01:19:23,759 --> 01:19:26,495
(crowd shouting)
1067
01:19:31,835 --> 01:19:37,340
- Your Honor, at no
time has the state
absolutely proved
1068
01:19:37,340 --> 01:19:42,278
that the blow
administered at the
Sunset Tourist Camp
1069
01:19:42,278 --> 01:19:44,480
did indeed
kill Turner.
1070
01:19:44,480 --> 01:19:46,715
- They don't have
to, it's up to you
1071
01:19:46,715 --> 01:19:48,684
to prove that it
did not kill him.
1072
01:19:49,785 --> 01:19:51,387
Now get on
with this trial.
1073
01:19:51,387 --> 01:19:55,191
- Hey, hey, you
can't believe it.
1074
01:19:55,691 --> 01:19:58,027
Ain't nobody wants to
testify for Wallace.
1075
01:20:04,200 --> 01:20:05,634
- Mr. Wallace,
you have the right
1076
01:20:05,634 --> 01:20:09,038
to make an unsworn
statement on your
own behalf.
1077
01:20:09,038 --> 01:20:12,876
Neither the defense,
nor the prosecution,
may interrupt you.
1078
01:20:12,876 --> 01:20:14,543
You will not be
placed under oath,
1079
01:20:14,543 --> 01:20:17,713
but your testimony will
be a matter of record.
1080
01:20:17,713 --> 01:20:19,348
Do you wish to make
such a statement?
1081
01:20:22,051 --> 01:20:24,420
- There's no reason
for you to go up there.
1082
01:20:24,420 --> 01:20:27,156
The less said
about this incident,
the better.
1083
01:20:27,991 --> 01:20:29,492
- That's where you're
wrong, counselor.
1084
01:20:29,725 --> 01:20:31,594
You don't understand
the power of my word.
1085
01:20:31,594 --> 01:20:34,063
These people'll believe
what I tell 'em to.
1086
01:20:34,063 --> 01:20:37,666
- As your attorney,
I'm advising you to stay
off that stand.
1087
01:20:37,666 --> 01:20:40,069
- You Honor, I do
wish to testify.
1088
01:20:43,106 --> 01:20:44,107
(banging)
1089
01:20:46,075 --> 01:20:47,877
- Wallace's gonna
take the stand.
1090
01:20:48,444 --> 01:20:50,880
He's gonna save my
hundred dollars.
1091
01:20:55,251 --> 01:20:56,452
- [Wallace] I believe
I should begin
1092
01:20:56,452 --> 01:20:58,587
with how I met
Wilson Turner.
1093
01:20:59,055 --> 01:21:03,459
Was in 1945. He came
to me lookin' for work.
1094
01:21:04,593 --> 01:21:06,562
At first I
was against it.
1095
01:21:06,562 --> 01:21:10,033
I don't believe
in mixin' white
and colored help.
1096
01:21:10,033 --> 01:21:14,370
Promotes social
equality, and causes
serious problems.
1097
01:21:14,703 --> 01:21:18,874
But he was a young
man needin' a start.
I hired him.
1098
01:21:20,309 --> 01:21:22,278
And the first few
years, he proved to
be a good worker.
1099
01:21:22,278 --> 01:21:25,214
I was...
I was very happy with
our association.
1100
01:21:25,581 --> 01:21:29,818
But then word came
to me that Turner
1101
01:21:29,818 --> 01:21:32,121
was makin' liquor
on my land.
1102
01:21:32,788 --> 01:21:35,258
Well, naturally,
I was distressed.
1103
01:21:35,258 --> 01:21:37,093
What if someone should
think I was involved
1104
01:21:37,093 --> 01:21:38,494
in this illegal trade?
1105
01:21:38,627 --> 01:21:41,064
(laughing)
1106
01:21:41,064 --> 01:21:42,331
(banging)
1107
01:21:47,603 --> 01:21:50,739
I asked him to
discontinue his
liquor makin',
1108
01:21:50,739 --> 01:21:53,476
to get back on the
straight and narrow.
1109
01:21:53,476 --> 01:21:57,313
He ignored me,
made threats against
my person.
1110
01:21:58,247 --> 01:22:02,351
Finally, with
grave fear for my
life and reputation,
1111
01:22:02,351 --> 01:22:04,988
I requested he
leave my property.
1112
01:22:05,754 --> 01:22:09,258
He did, but not
before taking
1113
01:22:09,258 --> 01:22:12,361
my prized Guernsey
cow with him.
1114
01:22:14,497 --> 01:22:16,332
Now, many of you men
are workin' farmers
1115
01:22:16,332 --> 01:22:19,835
such as myself, and
you know what a loss
this can be.
1116
01:22:20,336 --> 01:22:24,273
Well, not long after
that, I received a call
1117
01:22:24,273 --> 01:22:26,842
from my Sheriff,
Hardy Collier,
1118
01:22:28,277 --> 01:22:32,215
sayin' that Turner
had been arrested
and transferred,
1119
01:22:33,382 --> 01:22:36,719
legally and properly,
to the Meriwether Jail.
1120
01:22:37,120 --> 01:22:38,721
I told him that
I would come down
1121
01:22:38,721 --> 01:22:41,390
and decide what should
be done with Turner.
1122
01:22:42,558 --> 01:22:46,729
I drove in the next
day with my kinsman
Tom Strickland
1123
01:22:48,131 --> 01:22:51,034
and friends, Henry Mobley
and Herring Sivell,
1124
01:22:51,034 --> 01:22:55,971
who are under some
obligation to me.
1125
01:22:58,641 --> 01:23:00,809
I wanted to
talk to Turner,
1126
01:23:00,809 --> 01:23:03,646
but not in jail,
somewhere's else.
1127
01:23:04,747 --> 01:23:06,149
That's not the
first time a man
1128
01:23:06,149 --> 01:23:08,317
has been taken out of
jail and talked to.
1129
01:23:08,917 --> 01:23:12,488
As we arrived,
I noticed Turner
1130
01:23:13,022 --> 01:23:16,025
in his new truck
headin' for Coweta.
1131
01:23:17,493 --> 01:23:20,329
We took pursuit, I
meant to catch him
1132
01:23:20,329 --> 01:23:21,897
and bring him
back to jail.
1133
01:23:21,897 --> 01:23:25,868
I never consented
for Sheriff Collier
to release him.
1134
01:23:26,235 --> 01:23:29,905
- Your Honor, I think
it's obvious my client
1135
01:23:29,905 --> 01:23:33,576
is under a good
deal of stress and
beginning to tire.
1136
01:23:33,576 --> 01:23:36,279
If we might take
a short recess?
1137
01:23:36,279 --> 01:23:38,547
- Seems energetic
enough to me.
1138
01:23:39,782 --> 01:23:40,716
Go on.
1139
01:23:45,088 --> 01:23:49,192
- I'm... I'm not gonna
lie to you gentlemen.
1140
01:23:51,294 --> 01:23:55,598
I had a gun in my hand
when we caught Turner.
1141
01:23:55,598 --> 01:23:59,268
But not for the intention
of hurting anyone.
1142
01:24:01,270 --> 01:24:03,472
I'm a churchgoing man.
1143
01:24:03,472 --> 01:24:07,143
I believe in my God as
you believe in yours.
1144
01:24:08,277 --> 01:24:11,914
Now, these...
these witnesses
have testified
1145
01:24:11,914 --> 01:24:14,450
that I struck
Turner with that gun
1146
01:24:14,450 --> 01:24:16,952
and that is not
what happened.
1147
01:24:22,725 --> 01:24:26,061
As I went to put
him in that car,
1148
01:24:26,061 --> 01:24:29,132
he grabbed the doors
and pushed back,
1149
01:24:29,798 --> 01:24:35,003
hitting his head
on the gun, causin'
it to go off.
1150
01:24:36,472 --> 01:24:40,476
It made a small cut
on his right ear,
a little bleeding.
1151
01:24:40,976 --> 01:24:45,148
I put him in the
car, ordered him to
sit on the floor.
1152
01:24:47,450 --> 01:24:52,755
At that time, he was
as alive as you and me.
1153
01:24:55,824 --> 01:24:58,194
I know this because
1154
01:24:58,994 --> 01:25:00,429
as we drove away,
1155
01:25:01,364 --> 01:25:03,866
he commented on
the poor fitting
1156
01:25:03,866 --> 01:25:06,769
of the door panels and
how the dust blew in.
1157
01:25:11,440 --> 01:25:15,511
We drove him to
the pasture where
the cow was stolen.
1158
01:25:15,511 --> 01:25:17,846
I meant to get a
confession out of him.
1159
01:25:19,848 --> 01:25:22,551
and as... as we walked
through the gate,
1160
01:25:24,019 --> 01:25:25,354
I heard a noise.
1161
01:25:26,989 --> 01:25:31,394
I turned to look, and
as I turned to look...
1162
01:25:32,127 --> 01:25:33,362
the gun went off.
1163
01:25:34,697 --> 01:25:36,999
When I... when
I looked back,
1164
01:25:39,568 --> 01:25:42,070
Turner was lying on
the ground with...
1165
01:25:44,039 --> 01:25:45,874
with his scalp
torn off.
1166
01:25:45,874 --> 01:25:47,910
It was...
it was horrible,
1167
01:25:50,045 --> 01:25:52,047
it was a
horrible thing.
1168
01:25:52,681 --> 01:25:55,884
The death
of Wilson Turner
1169
01:25:57,052 --> 01:25:58,221
was an accident.
1170
01:25:59,355 --> 01:26:00,389
I, uh...
1171
01:26:02,024 --> 01:26:05,561
I do not remember how
he got in that well
1172
01:26:05,561 --> 01:26:07,996
or what happened
to him afterwards.
1173
01:26:09,698 --> 01:26:13,436
I've been under
considerable strain
1174
01:26:13,436 --> 01:26:16,739
and I just...
do not remember.
1175
01:26:22,378 --> 01:26:26,549
I've asked my God
to guide me through
this presentation.
1176
01:26:29,585 --> 01:26:33,188
And I ask you to
commune with Him,
1177
01:26:34,457 --> 01:26:37,393
let Him guide you
to your decision.
1178
01:26:40,296 --> 01:26:43,732
Let me go home to
my wife and family.
1179
01:26:48,103 --> 01:26:48,871
I thank you.
1180
01:26:49,605 --> 01:26:52,608
- Your Honor,
I wonder if you could
direct the defendant
1181
01:26:52,608 --> 01:26:55,110
as to where the
accident took place?
1182
01:26:55,110 --> 01:26:57,446
- You know the rules
on unsworn statements.
1183
01:26:57,446 --> 01:27:00,215
There is to be no
suggestion from counsel.
1184
01:27:00,215 --> 01:27:02,951
- Your Honor...
may I continue?
1185
01:27:04,920 --> 01:27:05,754
- You may.
1186
01:27:07,290 --> 01:27:12,261
- The well and
pasture, where all
this took place,
1187
01:27:12,261 --> 01:27:14,730
are in
Meriwether County.
1188
01:27:29,312 --> 01:27:30,178
How'd I do?
1189
01:27:31,814 --> 01:27:35,117
- John, you just
buried yourself.
1190
01:27:39,988 --> 01:27:42,325
(whistling)
1191
01:27:45,828 --> 01:27:50,499
- Sheriff, I understand
you raise fox hounds.
1192
01:27:51,166 --> 01:27:53,536
Now, I'm a fancier
of that breed myself.
1193
01:27:53,536 --> 01:27:55,538
Maybe when this
whole thing's over,
you and me...
1194
01:27:56,004 --> 01:28:00,008
Miss Turner, I'm
glad I got a chance
to see you.
1195
01:28:01,176 --> 01:28:03,045
I want you to know,
I don't hold a grudge
1196
01:28:03,045 --> 01:28:05,681
against you for your
husband's actions.
1197
01:28:05,681 --> 01:28:07,550
In fact, you're
more than welcome
1198
01:28:07,550 --> 01:28:09,818
to pick out any place
you want on my land
1199
01:28:09,818 --> 01:28:12,388
and stay there as
long as you like.
1200
01:28:13,456 --> 01:28:15,391
I like to take
care of my own.
1201
01:28:16,692 --> 01:28:18,561
Aw, is this
little William?
1202
01:28:20,996 --> 01:28:22,565
- Was that
really necessary?
1203
01:28:23,065 --> 01:28:24,533
- The jury is in.
1204
01:28:25,634 --> 01:28:27,403
- Has the jury
reached a decision?
1205
01:28:28,704 --> 01:28:30,205
- We have,
Your Honor.
1206
01:28:31,139 --> 01:28:32,808
- Will the defendant
please rise?
1207
01:28:36,044 --> 01:28:37,746
I caution
this courtroom,
1208
01:28:38,547 --> 01:28:40,516
I will tolerate no
expression of opinion
1209
01:28:40,516 --> 01:28:43,986
on this decision, be
it favor or disfavor.
1210
01:28:45,888 --> 01:28:48,924
Mr. Foreman, what
is your verdict?
1211
01:28:49,492 --> 01:28:52,327
- We, the jury,
find the defendant,
1212
01:28:52,327 --> 01:28:55,598
John Wallace,
guilty as charged.
1213
01:28:57,232 --> 01:28:58,867
- [Judge] John Wallace,
1214
01:28:58,867 --> 01:29:02,070
you have been
duly tried and found
guilty as charged.
1215
01:29:02,070 --> 01:29:03,839
Would you please
step forward.
1216
01:29:15,851 --> 01:29:17,753
On the 30th day of
July, between the hours
1217
01:29:17,753 --> 01:29:20,556
of 10:00 AM
and 2:00 PM,
1218
01:29:21,390 --> 01:29:24,760
you will be
put to death by means
of electrocution.
1219
01:29:33,368 --> 01:29:34,703
- Mornin', boys.
1220
01:29:36,238 --> 01:29:38,607
Looks like we're gonna
have another pretty day,
doesn't it?
1221
01:29:40,476 --> 01:29:41,777
Okay, this one?
1222
01:29:58,627 --> 01:30:02,397
(plaintive
orchestral music)
1223
01:30:58,220 --> 01:30:59,387
- Hello, John.
1224
01:31:00,122 --> 01:31:02,024
I'm about ready
to leave.
1225
01:31:02,024 --> 01:31:03,225
Thought I'd
drop by and see
1226
01:31:03,225 --> 01:31:05,060
if there's anything
you might need.
1227
01:31:07,896 --> 01:31:10,733
- You mean like
a fancy last meal?
1228
01:31:12,635 --> 01:31:16,705
No, I wouldn't want
you to go huntin'
fried chicken
1229
01:31:16,705 --> 01:31:19,542
and strawberry pie
today, and then tomorrow
1230
01:31:19,542 --> 01:31:21,744
I wind up eatin'
supper at my own house.
1231
01:31:23,378 --> 01:31:26,882
It ain't gonna happen,
they ain't gonna kill me.
1232
01:31:26,882 --> 01:31:29,417
There'll be a phone call.
Always has been.
1233
01:31:34,657 --> 01:31:38,093
You know, Lamar,
we're a lot alike.
1234
01:31:38,727 --> 01:31:42,665
Each runnin' his own
county, havin' power
over other men.
1235
01:31:44,066 --> 01:31:47,035
Best feelin' in
the world. Make you
do anything...
1236
01:31:47,502 --> 01:31:48,370
'cept give it up.
1237
01:31:51,239 --> 01:31:54,176
- How powerful
is a man who can't
control himself?
1238
01:31:57,279 --> 01:32:01,416
- You're still
down on me for my
murderin' ways.
1239
01:32:03,218 --> 01:32:06,454
I've only killed four
men in my whole life.
1240
01:32:06,454 --> 01:32:08,423
And each one of
'em had it comin'.
1241
01:32:10,092 --> 01:32:12,227
- Those lives didn't
mean anything to you?
1242
01:32:15,263 --> 01:32:19,534
- I'm the head of
the Kingdom. I was
raised for that.
1243
01:32:20,535 --> 01:32:24,072
My mama always told me,
"Do what you have to do."
1244
01:32:24,072 --> 01:32:26,274
"Never let your conscience
get in your way."
1245
01:32:32,581 --> 01:32:34,049
- I'm gonna pray
for you, John.
1246
01:32:37,285 --> 01:32:38,887
- Goodbye, Sheriff.
1247
01:32:39,788 --> 01:32:41,123
- Bye, John.
1248
01:32:59,474 --> 01:33:01,644
- Sheriff, you
got 20 minutes.
1249
01:33:01,644 --> 01:33:03,478
- No, I'm going back
to Coweta County.
1250
01:33:03,478 --> 01:33:05,113
- You're not stayin'
for the execution?
1251
01:33:05,113 --> 01:33:06,281
We saved you a seat.
1252
01:33:06,281 --> 01:33:08,016
- No thanks.
I don't think so.
1253
01:33:12,655 --> 01:33:14,289
(dramatic string music)
1254
01:33:27,870 --> 01:33:28,971
- [Voice] Sir?
1255
01:33:28,971 --> 01:33:30,438
- Is this line
still open?
1256
01:33:30,839 --> 01:33:31,707
- [Voice] Yes, sir.
1257
01:33:31,707 --> 01:33:32,540
- Good.
1258
01:33:40,849 --> 01:33:42,617
Is there anything
you'd like to say?
1259
01:33:46,021 --> 01:33:46,855
- Yes.
1260
01:33:50,693 --> 01:33:54,897
Almighty God, you
alone know my heart.
1261
01:33:56,665 --> 01:34:00,535
Stand by to receive
me into Your House.
