Police Commissioner Scott,
I don't envy you.
21
00:01:36,318 --> 00:01:37,798
It can't be easy.

I see you got my message.
You-you started without me.

the first time.

was about to do her business.

Well, he drank too much,
he knew he was getting sick.

Men's room was locked.

So he says.
39
00:02:15,270 --> 00:02:16,576
I guess the real question is:
40
00:02:16,619 --> 00:02:18,447
would she have shot him
if he were white?
41
00:02:24,236 --> 00:02:25,802
Thanks.

civil rights claim.

Okay, City Hall has a floor
full of attorneys,

Why are you paying for my fish?

Dr. Bull.

an offer this morning.

of at least ten.

it may come to that,

I owe it to the force,

to go into a courtroom
and declare
74

in as full-throated
a way as I can,

00:08:41,177 --> 00:08:42,788
No. This is...
178
00:08:42,831 --> 00:08:45,225
I just... Doesn't matter.
179
00:08:45,268 --> 00:08:47,270
[chuckles]
180
00:08:47,314 --> 00:08:48,576
Ms. Ford.
Mm-hmm.
181
00:08:48,620 --> 00:08:50,578
I'm...
Dr. Jason Bull.
182
00:08:50,622 --> 00:08:53,233
I know who you are,
and I know what you do.
183
00:08:53,276 --> 00:08:54,930
How can I help you,
Dr. Bull?
184
00:08:54,974 --> 00:08:58,455
Well, it's not me
that needs your help.
185
00:08:58,499 --> 00:09:00,457
It's the City of New York.
186
00:09:00,501 --> 00:09:04,113
They approached me,
and asked me to get involved
187
00:09:04,157 --> 00:09:06,899
in this federal
civil rights suit
188
00:09:06,942 --> 00:09:09,815
that you
and your client filed.
189
00:09:09,858 --> 00:09:12,426
Frankly, I came over here
to see what I could do
190
00:09:12,469 --> 00:09:13,993
to make the whole thing go away.
191
00:09:14,036 --> 00:09:18,258
Well, you can get them to
offer my client $25 million.
192
00:09:18,301 --> 00:09:19,694
[laughs]
193
00:09:19,738 --> 00:09:22,828
What is it about that
figure that amuses you?
194
00:09:22,871 --> 00:09:25,178
Well, that's a big number
for a flesh wound
195
00:09:25,221 --> 00:09:27,180
that's probably gonna heal
before this case finishes
196
00:09:27,223 --> 00:09:28,834
winding its way
through the courts.
197
00:09:28,877 --> 00:09:31,880
And my bigger fear is that,
in the meantime,
198
00:09:31,924 --> 00:09:35,144
jackasses will line up
on both sides of the argument
199
00:09:35,188 --> 00:09:38,670
and use it as an excuse
to make more trouble.
200
00:09:38,713 --> 00:09:40,019
Hmm.
201
00:09:40,062 --> 00:09:42,108
I'd always heard
202
00:09:42,151 --> 00:09:46,721
that you were this crusader
for civil rights, human rights.
203
00:09:47,809 --> 00:09:50,551
I like to think I have
been a significant voice
204
00:09:50,595 --> 00:09:52,553
in that conversation,
205
00:09:52,597 --> 00:09:55,948
a meaningful advocate for people
whose rights have been violated.
206
00:09:55,991 --> 00:09:59,168
And it may seem like just a
flesh wound to you, Dr. Bull,
207
00:09:59,212 --> 00:10:01,606
but to me, it's a
bullet to the heart.
208
00:10:01,649 --> 00:10:03,999
I'm reasonably sure if
that had been a white man
209
00:10:04,043 --> 00:10:06,567
in that bathroom, there'd
have been no shots fired.
210
00:10:06,611 --> 00:10:09,701
I've also learned over the years
that the only thing that changes
211
00:10:09,744 --> 00:10:11,659
an entrenched institution
212
00:10:11,703 --> 00:10:15,794
like the City of New York is a
big ding to their bank account.
213
00:10:15,837 --> 00:10:17,926
And that's what
I'm really after.
214
00:10:17,970 --> 00:10:20,015
Big change.
215
00:10:20,059 --> 00:10:22,539
Then I guess
we're going to court.
216
00:10:22,583 --> 00:10:25,455
I guess so.
217
00:10:28,023 --> 00:10:30,243
You want the good news
or the bad news?
218
00:10:30,286 --> 00:10:33,072
Just... give us the news.
219
00:10:33,115 --> 00:10:35,248
We're going to trial tomorrow,
working on behalf
220
00:10:35,291 --> 00:10:37,554
of Officer Tonya Harris
and the NYPD.
221
00:10:37,598 --> 00:10:39,208
Oh, my God.
222
00:10:39,252 --> 00:10:41,080
And our strategy is...?
223
00:10:41,123 --> 00:10:43,648
Well, Malia Ford is obviously
gonna make this case about race.
224
00:10:43,691 --> 00:10:45,301
So in choosing our jurors,
225
00:10:45,345 --> 00:10:46,868
we are gonna do
everything we can
226
00:10:46,912 --> 00:10:48,783
to make it about everything but.
227
00:10:48,827 --> 00:10:50,480
And how do we do that?
228
00:10:50,524 --> 00:10:53,179
Well, we want to concentrate
on the circumstances.
229
00:10:53,222 --> 00:10:55,964
Not the people.
230
00:10:56,008 --> 00:10:57,749
When you present
the circumstances,
231
00:10:57,792 --> 00:10:59,620
there is a solid foundation
of facts
232
00:10:59,664 --> 00:11:02,797
that supports the idea
that Officer Harris...
233
00:11:02,841 --> 00:11:06,279
was reasonably in fear
for her life.
234
00:11:06,322 --> 00:11:09,674
She shot Cal Peterson
in self-defense.
235
00:11:09,717 --> 00:11:12,154
White or black, our ideal juror
236
00:11:12,198 --> 00:11:16,071
is someone who would make
the same split-second decision.
237
00:11:16,115 --> 00:11:19,031
Someone who doesn't take time
to think in a crisis
238
00:11:19,074 --> 00:11:20,597
but reacts in a blink.
239
00:11:20,641 --> 00:11:22,208
What I call a "Blink Reactor."
240
00:11:22,251 --> 00:11:25,080
Okay. So now we're looking
for Blink Reactors.
241
00:11:25,124 --> 00:11:26,865
Whatever those are.
242
00:11:26,908 --> 00:11:29,084
BULL: We're not
simply relying on how
243
00:11:29,128 --> 00:11:31,391
jurors tell us they'd react
in a crisis,
244
00:11:31,434 --> 00:11:34,263
but also how long they take
to answer the question.
245
00:11:34,307 --> 00:11:38,093
The main thing is we don't care
who these Blink Reactors are.
246
00:11:38,137 --> 00:11:42,445
In fact, the more our jury looks
like a jury forCal Peterson,
247
00:11:42,489 --> 00:11:44,709
the more we will have started
248
00:11:44,752 --> 00:11:46,101
to convince everyone
in that courtroom,
249
00:11:46,145 --> 00:11:48,756
most especially that jury,
250
00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:52,499
that we're not trying a case
about race.
251
00:11:52,542 --> 00:11:56,764
We're trying a case
about circumstances.
252
00:11:56,808 --> 00:11:58,026
Hello, Miss Sloane.
253
00:11:58,070 --> 00:12:01,029
I see that you are
a hair stylist.
254
00:12:01,073 --> 00:12:02,988
Actually, I own my own salon.
255
00:12:03,031 --> 00:12:04,511
That's terrific.
256
00:12:04,554 --> 00:12:06,948
Now, let's say one day...
257
00:12:06,992 --> 00:12:10,125
a gentleman comes
into your salon.
258
00:12:10,169 --> 00:12:13,128
I don't know if he's crazy
or high on PCP,
259
00:12:13,172 --> 00:12:15,217
and he grabs one
of your scissors,
260
00:12:15,261 --> 00:12:16,784
and he starts
swinging it around.
261
00:12:16,828 --> 00:12:18,220
Threatening you
and your customers.
262
00:12:19,613 --> 00:12:21,006
What would you do?
263
00:12:23,791 --> 00:12:26,576
Come on.
You a thinker or a blinker?
264
00:12:26,620 --> 00:12:28,578
I want you on this jury.
265
00:12:28,622 --> 00:12:30,406
MARISSA:
Seven seconds.
266
00:12:30,450 --> 00:12:32,800
Eight seconds.BULL:
You can do this.
267
00:12:32,844 --> 00:12:35,542
Throw bleach in his face.
Hit him with your hair dryer.
268
00:12:38,284 --> 00:12:39,589
Move to strike,
Your Honor.
269
00:12:39,633 --> 00:12:41,026
What we don't want
270
00:12:41,069 --> 00:12:42,984
are people who lack
the confidence to take action.
271
00:12:43,028 --> 00:12:44,943
Now, Mr. Sails,
you work the door
272
00:12:44,986 --> 00:12:46,292
at a club.
Am I correct?
273
00:12:46,335 --> 00:12:49,469
Yes, I do.Now, I bet when
it gets pretty late,
274
00:12:49,512 --> 00:12:51,123
people have had
too much to drink,
275
00:12:51,166 --> 00:12:53,038
gets kind of wild, huh?SAILS: It does.
276
00:12:53,081 --> 00:12:54,648
BENNY:
So let me ask you:
277
00:12:54,691 --> 00:12:57,259
what would you do if one of your
customers took a swing at you?
278
00:12:57,303 --> 00:13:00,741
I would make it my business to
see to it that he regrets it.
279
00:13:00,785 --> 00:13:02,874
Instantly.
280
00:13:02,917 --> 00:13:04,005
Without hesitation?
281
00:13:04,049 --> 00:13:06,051
Instantly.
282
00:13:09,402 --> 00:13:12,840
We also want jurors who believe
people have a fundamental right
283
00:13:12,884 --> 00:13:14,973
to protect what's theirs,
whether it's their property,
284
00:13:15,016 --> 00:13:18,237
their life or the lives
of their loved ones.
285
00:13:18,280 --> 00:13:20,065
Have you ever had your home
286
00:13:20,108 --> 00:13:21,936
or apartment broken into?
287
00:13:21,980 --> 00:13:23,459
Yes, a couple of years back.
288
00:13:23,503 --> 00:13:26,593
And were you there at the time?No, thank goodness.
289
00:13:26,636 --> 00:13:28,464
Thank goodness
because you suspect the robber
290
00:13:28,508 --> 00:13:29,857
might have hurt you or...?
291
00:13:29,901 --> 00:13:32,207
Thank goodness because if
I would have been there,
292
00:13:32,251 --> 00:13:35,080
there'd be one dead
robber right now.
293
00:13:36,995 --> 00:13:38,474
This juror's acceptable
to the defense, Your Honor.
294
00:13:38,518 --> 00:13:40,259
Ms. Ford?
295
00:13:40,302 --> 00:13:43,305
This juror is acceptable
to the plaintiff, as well.
296
00:13:43,349 --> 00:13:45,830
Then it looks
like we've got our jury.
297
00:13:47,875 --> 00:13:50,095
I saw your boss on the
front page of the paper.
298
00:13:50,138 --> 00:13:53,663
Sitting in court beside that
cop that shot Cal Peterson.
299
00:13:53,707 --> 00:13:54,882
Okay.
300
00:13:54,926 --> 00:13:56,101
CHUNK:
You know, Anna,
301
00:13:56,144 --> 00:13:57,754
it's my job.
I don't run the company.
302
00:13:57,798 --> 00:13:59,104
I just work there.
303
00:13:59,147 --> 00:14:01,976
You can hear how pathetic
that sounds, right?
304
00:14:02,020 --> 00:14:03,195
Actually, I can't.
305
00:14:03,238 --> 00:14:06,241
'Cause I know how hard
good jobs are to get.
306
00:14:06,285 --> 00:14:08,113
And I know how important
my job is right now,
307
00:14:08,156 --> 00:14:10,202
seeing as that you're
the one going to school.
308
00:14:10,245 --> 00:14:13,161
And yeah, I know
all about your scholarships,
309
00:14:13,205 --> 00:14:16,208
but somebody's got to pay
for books and housing...
310
00:14:16,251 --> 00:14:17,600
Still pathetic.
311
00:14:18,645 --> 00:14:20,647
[sighs]
312
00:14:22,692 --> 00:14:25,652
I ever tell you what my dad
gave me for my 14th birthday?
313
00:14:27,132 --> 00:14:28,960
He gave me "The Talk."
314
00:14:29,003 --> 00:14:31,745
Sat me down and told me
all about how I should act
315
00:14:31,788 --> 00:14:33,355
around the police.
316
00:14:33,399 --> 00:14:35,140
"Don't attract attention.
317
00:14:35,183 --> 00:14:36,750
"Don't make them mad.
318
00:14:36,793 --> 00:14:39,666
Do whatever they say
the second they say do it."
319
00:14:39,709 --> 00:14:41,276
[scoffs]
320
00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:44,627
And it all made me
so angry.
321
00:14:44,671 --> 00:14:47,282
I was embarrassed that he
was telling me those things.
322
00:14:47,326 --> 00:14:50,459
I was embarrassed
that he believed those things.
323
00:14:50,503 --> 00:14:53,332
And I was enraged
that he accepted those things.
324
00:14:55,377 --> 00:14:57,292
But deep down,
325
00:14:57,336 --> 00:14:59,686
I knew what he was
trying to do.
326
00:14:59,729 --> 00:15:03,342
He was trying to...
tell me the truth.
327
00:15:03,385 --> 00:15:06,780
And I knew my white friends
weren't having that talk.
328
00:15:06,823 --> 00:15:07,999
[scoffs]
329
00:15:08,042 --> 00:15:09,261
Not on their 14th birthday.
330
00:15:09,304 --> 00:15:10,653
Not on their 40th birthday.
331
00:15:10,697 --> 00:15:12,742
So, then, how can you go
332
00:15:12,786 --> 00:15:15,136
and defend a white cop
who shot one of us?
333
00:15:15,180 --> 00:15:18,313
Well, this is what
I tell myself.
334
00:15:18,357 --> 00:15:20,968
For the justice system
to really work,
335
00:15:21,012 --> 00:15:24,102
it has to be colorblind.
336
00:15:24,145 --> 00:15:27,018
Look, I don't know what
really happened that night.
337
00:15:27,061 --> 00:15:29,368
Who's right. Who's wrong.
338
00:15:29,411 --> 00:15:31,848
But me being a part of it,
339
00:15:31,892 --> 00:15:34,982
me being involved
in the fact-finding process?
340
00:15:35,026 --> 00:15:37,245
Well, I have to believe
that somewhere,
341
00:15:37,289 --> 00:15:39,465
my dad is smiling.
342
00:15:43,208 --> 00:15:45,558
DANNY:
Veronica Hill?
343
00:15:45,601 --> 00:15:47,647
Ms. Hill. Hi.
344
00:15:47,690 --> 00:15:49,170
My name is Danny James.
345
00:15:49,214 --> 00:15:51,346
I'm an investigator working
on the Cal Peterson case.
346
00:15:51,390 --> 00:15:53,566
The unarmed schoolteacher
who was shot
347
00:15:53,609 --> 00:15:55,176
by the female police officer.
348
00:15:55,220 --> 00:15:57,309
Okay, but I don't know anything
about that
349
00:15:57,352 --> 00:15:58,875
other than what I read online.
350
00:15:58,919 --> 00:16:02,009
Isn't it true that Cal Peterson
was your driver last year
351
00:16:02,053 --> 00:16:03,880
after you summoned a rideshare
service on your phone?
352
00:16:03,924 --> 00:16:06,535
I'm sorry. I don't
have time for this.
353
00:16:06,579 --> 00:16:08,929
I have to pick something up for
my boss and get it back to him.
354
00:16:08,973 --> 00:16:11,279
But I saw that you filed a
complaint against Mr. Peterson.
355
00:16:11,323 --> 00:16:12,802
Do you mind
telling me what happened?
356
00:16:12,846 --> 00:16:15,153
Look, I really don't want
to get dragged
357
00:16:15,196 --> 00:16:17,242
into a big case like this.
358
00:16:17,285 --> 00:16:19,548
Or I can subpoena you.
359
00:16:22,551 --> 00:16:26,294
SCOTT:
That's the jury you picked?
360
00:16:26,338 --> 00:16:28,253
Are you sure you know
what you're doing?
361
00:16:28,296 --> 00:16:31,604
Nope. A lot of this
is just dumb luck.
362
00:16:31,647 --> 00:16:33,693
You still sure
you don't want to settle?
363
00:16:33,736 --> 00:16:35,521
CAL:
I had been
364
00:16:35,564 --> 00:16:38,045
to a big celebratory dinner
earlier in the evening.
365
00:16:38,089 --> 00:16:40,569
Um, it was
a citywide celebration
366
00:16:40,613 --> 00:16:43,268
honoring public education
and public schoolteachers,
367
00:16:43,311 --> 00:16:45,052
and I actually received
368
00:16:45,096 --> 00:16:47,011
a Teacher of the Year award
from the mayor.
369
00:16:47,054 --> 00:16:48,708
And after this dinner,
what did you do?
370
00:16:48,751 --> 00:16:50,362
Uh, went out
with some other teachers.
371
00:16:50,405 --> 00:16:51,711
Had a few more drinks.
372
00:16:51,754 --> 00:16:53,408
So, wait. Take us through this.
373
00:16:53,452 --> 00:16:55,584
You're drinking with friends...
374
00:16:55,628 --> 00:16:58,370
Well, uh...
375
00:16:58,413 --> 00:17:00,546
this is embarrassing.
376
00:17:00,589 --> 00:17:03,810
But the truth is I don't
normally drink very much.
377
00:17:03,853 --> 00:17:06,073
So when I left my friends
378
00:17:06,117 --> 00:17:08,336
and when I started to walk home,
379
00:17:08,380 --> 00:17:12,079
I realized, um,
I was pretty messed up.
380
00:17:12,123 --> 00:17:14,864
And then I started to get sick.
381
00:17:14,908 --> 00:17:16,692
And I knew
I really needed a bathroom,
382
00:17:16,736 --> 00:17:19,434
and there was that diner,
so I just ran in.
383
00:17:19,478 --> 00:17:23,047
I tried the men's room first,
but it was locked.
384
00:17:23,090 --> 00:17:25,484
I was feeling desperate.
385
00:17:25,527 --> 00:17:29,227
I... I didn't want
to make a mess on the floor,
386
00:17:29,270 --> 00:17:31,229
so I tried the door
to the ladies' room,
387
00:17:31,272 --> 00:17:32,491
and it wasn't locked.
388
00:17:32,534 --> 00:17:34,449
MARISSA: Surprise, surprise.
They like him.
389
00:17:34,493 --> 00:17:36,669
Truth be told, I like him.
390
00:17:36,712 --> 00:17:38,975
I don't recall anyone asking.
391
00:17:39,019 --> 00:17:42,936
Okay, so, you open the door
to the women's restroom.
392
00:17:42,979 --> 00:17:44,938
And what happened?
393
00:17:44,981 --> 00:17:46,418
Uh, there was a woman
on the toilet,
394
00:17:46,461 --> 00:17:49,377
but then I saw the sink...She was on the toilet?
395
00:17:49,421 --> 00:17:51,075
Just about.
396
00:17:51,118 --> 00:17:53,425
She may have been
unbuttoning her pants
397
00:17:53,468 --> 00:17:54,643
or something like that.
398
00:17:54,687 --> 00:17:57,385
This woman, is she
here in the courtroom?
399
00:17:58,430 --> 00:18:00,562
Right over there.
400
00:18:00,606 --> 00:18:02,521
Officer Harris.
401
00:18:02,564 --> 00:18:04,392
[gallery murmuring]
402
00:18:06,394 --> 00:18:08,527
So, you move toward the sink.
403
00:18:08,570 --> 00:18:09,919
And next thing I know,
404
00:18:09,963 --> 00:18:12,400
she pulled her gun
and was waving it in my face.
405
00:18:12,444 --> 00:18:14,837
And then, uh...
406
00:18:14,881 --> 00:18:16,839
then she shot me.
407
00:18:16,883 --> 00:18:19,625
MALIA:
Now, Mr. Peterson,
408
00:18:19,668 --> 00:18:22,062
after Officer Harris grabbed
her gun but before she shot you,
409
00:18:22,106 --> 00:18:26,022
isn't it true you grabbed
the barrel of that gun?
410
00:18:27,067 --> 00:18:28,808
I did.
411
00:18:28,851 --> 00:18:30,418
Can you tell us
why you did that?
412
00:18:32,464 --> 00:18:35,684
I guess it was just instinct.
413
00:18:35,728 --> 00:18:38,078
Seems like every time
you turn on the news,
414
00:18:38,122 --> 00:18:40,385
you hear about
some unarmed black man
415
00:18:40,428 --> 00:18:42,909
being shot by a white cop.
416
00:18:42,952 --> 00:18:45,651
[gallery murmuring]
417
00:18:45,694 --> 00:18:47,087
So when this white cop
418
00:18:47,131 --> 00:18:49,437
was pointing her gun at me,
419
00:18:49,481 --> 00:18:51,918
I knew.
420
00:18:51,961 --> 00:18:55,182
I knew she was gonna shoot me.
421
00:18:55,226 --> 00:18:58,403
So I grabbed the gun and tried
to aim it away from me.
422
00:18:58,446 --> 00:19:00,448
And thank God I did.
423
00:19:02,189 --> 00:19:04,322
She only got me in the arm.
424
00:19:04,365 --> 00:19:07,151
Who knows what she would've hit
if I hadn't.
425
00:19:07,194 --> 00:19:09,153
I could be dead.
426
00:19:09,196 --> 00:19:11,155
Objection! Speculation.
427
00:19:11,198 --> 00:19:12,330
Overruled.
428
00:19:12,373 --> 00:19:14,288
We have no more
questions at this time.
429
00:19:16,595 --> 00:19:17,944
[clears throat]
430
00:19:18,988 --> 00:19:21,774
So...
431
00:19:21,817 --> 00:19:24,037
we've heard a lot about...
432
00:19:24,080 --> 00:19:26,344
how much you had to drink
the night of the shooting.
433
00:19:26,387 --> 00:19:28,824
But I was wondering if you
could also tell me about...
434
00:19:28,868 --> 00:19:31,784
the illegal drugs
you also ingested
435
00:19:31,827 --> 00:19:33,394
that evening.
436
00:19:33,438 --> 00:19:34,352
[gallery murmuring]
437
00:19:34,395 --> 00:19:37,398
I'm sorry. I apologize.
438
00:19:37,442 --> 00:19:39,357
Must be me.
I didn't hear an answer.
439
00:19:39,400 --> 00:19:41,228
I didn't offer one.
440
00:19:41,272 --> 00:19:43,056
I don't have one.
441
00:19:43,099 --> 00:19:45,450
I didn't take any drugs
that evening.
442
00:19:45,493 --> 00:19:47,713
I don't take drugs. Ever.
443
00:19:47,756 --> 00:19:49,062
Oh, I'm sorry.
444
00:19:49,105 --> 00:19:51,238
[exhales] Forgive me.
445
00:19:51,282 --> 00:19:52,457
My mistake.
446
00:19:52,500 --> 00:19:53,936
Ah.
447
00:19:53,980 --> 00:19:56,548
I see what the problem is.
448
00:19:56,591 --> 00:20:00,334
I must have gotten thrown
off by this toxicity report.
449
00:20:00,378 --> 00:20:02,249
Taken on the night
of the shooting.
450
00:20:02,293 --> 00:20:05,165
See, they took you to
the hospital to stitch you up,
451
00:20:05,209 --> 00:20:06,819
and they took some blood.
452
00:20:06,862 --> 00:20:08,386
Remember?
453
00:20:08,429 --> 00:20:11,171
Objection! I haven't seen
any toxicity report.
454
00:20:11,215 --> 00:20:13,565
Defense didn't produce it
in discovery.
455
00:20:13,608 --> 00:20:15,262
Again, I apologize.
456
00:20:15,306 --> 00:20:17,525
I just got it
from the state lab last night.
457
00:20:17,569 --> 00:20:18,831
They've been backed up.
458
00:20:18,874 --> 00:20:21,181
That notwithstanding,
the plaintiff's counsel
459
00:20:21,225 --> 00:20:23,096
had the same access
to this report
460
00:20:23,139 --> 00:20:25,229
as I did, Your Honor.
461
00:20:29,145 --> 00:20:31,104
I'll allow it.
462
00:20:31,147 --> 00:20:32,975
Thank you, Your Honor.
463
00:20:33,019 --> 00:20:34,194
Now, according to this report,
464
00:20:34,238 --> 00:20:36,283
you weren't just drunk,
Mr. Peterson.
465
00:20:36,327 --> 00:20:38,416
You were high on MDMA.
466
00:20:38,459 --> 00:20:40,635
You know, MDMA?
467
00:20:40,679 --> 00:20:42,202
Molly?
468
00:20:43,682 --> 00:20:45,988
[scoffs]I need an answer, sir.
469
00:20:46,032 --> 00:20:47,599
Is it still your testimony
470
00:20:47,642 --> 00:20:49,383
that you didn't do any drugs
that evening?
471
00:20:49,427 --> 00:20:51,820
And let me remind you
that you are still under oath.
472
00:20:51,864 --> 00:20:54,562
No. I mean, yes.
473
00:20:54,606 --> 00:20:57,522
I absolutely didn't take
any drugs that night.
474
00:20:57,565 --> 00:21:00,133
All I can think of is maybe
somebody slipped something
475
00:21:00,176 --> 00:21:03,528
in my drink, but I certainly
wasn't aware of it.
476
00:21:03,571 --> 00:21:06,357
So someone slipped Molly
477
00:21:06,400 --> 00:21:08,446
in your drink while you
were out celebrating
478
00:21:08,489 --> 00:21:09,751
your Teacher of the Year award?
479
00:21:09,795 --> 00:21:11,536
Objection. Argumentative.
480
00:21:11,579 --> 00:21:13,233
Move it along, Mr. Colón.
481
00:21:13,277 --> 00:21:17,063
Certainly, Your Honor,
certainly.
482
00:21:17,106 --> 00:21:19,631
Th-The night that you charged
483
00:21:19,674 --> 00:21:23,156
into Officer Harris's
bathroom...
484
00:21:23,199 --> 00:21:24,636
that wasn't the first time
485
00:21:24,679 --> 00:21:26,202
that you physically threatened
a woman,
486
00:21:26,246 --> 00:21:28,335
was it, Mr. Peterson?
487
00:21:28,379 --> 00:21:29,989
I don't know
what you're talking about.
488
00:21:30,032 --> 00:21:32,383
Isn't it true that last year,
489
00:21:32,426 --> 00:21:34,385
at this time,
you used the evening hours
490
00:21:34,428 --> 00:21:38,432
to work as a driver for
a ridesharing company?
491
00:21:38,476 --> 00:21:41,566
And isn't it true that a
complaint was filed against you
492
00:21:41,609 --> 00:21:44,395
by one of your passengers?
A Ms. Veronica Hill?
493
00:21:44,438 --> 00:21:46,048
Objection.
Your Honor, relevance?
494
00:21:46,092 --> 00:21:48,355
The plaintiff's counsel
has gone to great lengths
495
00:21:48,399 --> 00:21:51,184
to present the plaintiff
as a model citizen.
496
00:21:51,227 --> 00:21:53,534
An honored teacher
who could do no wrong.
497
00:21:53,578 --> 00:21:55,580
She opened the door
to character, Your Honor.
498
00:21:55,623 --> 00:21:57,625
Overruled.
499
00:21:57,669 --> 00:21:59,279
BENNY:
Thank you.
500
00:21:59,323 --> 00:22:03,239
Now, let me refresh your memory,
Mr. Peterson.
501
00:22:03,283 --> 00:22:05,894
Isn't it true
that Ms. Hill became
502
00:22:05,938 --> 00:22:09,811
so uncomfortable
with the aggressive,
503
00:22:09,855 --> 00:22:13,598
sexual passes you made
while you were her driver,
504
00:22:13,641 --> 00:22:16,688
that she demanded you pull over
three and a half miles
505
00:22:16,731 --> 00:22:18,516
before she reached
her destination?
506
00:22:18,559 --> 00:22:22,520
She did ask me to pull over.
507
00:22:22,563 --> 00:22:24,565
But I wasn't being aggressive.
508
00:22:24,609 --> 00:22:27,133
It was really just
a misunderstanding.
509
00:22:27,176 --> 00:22:28,700
Oh, just a misunderstanding.
510
00:22:28,743 --> 00:22:32,660
But didn't you chase her on foot
after she exited your car?
511
00:22:32,704 --> 00:22:34,662
I was trying to reason with her.
512
00:22:34,706 --> 00:22:36,447
You were trying to reason with
her while you were chasing her,
513
00:22:36,490 --> 00:22:37,709
screaming at her,
514
00:22:37,752 --> 00:22:39,537
threatening her.
515
00:22:39,580 --> 00:22:41,713
I wasn't threatening her.
516
00:22:41,756 --> 00:22:44,542
I just...
517
00:22:44,585 --> 00:22:46,892
I just didn't want her
to file a complaint.
518
00:22:46,935 --> 00:22:49,547
I really needed that job.
519
00:22:51,723 --> 00:22:53,638
You're a big guy, Mr. Peterson.
520
00:22:53,681 --> 00:22:56,728
How big would you say
Ms. Hill was?
521
00:22:56,771 --> 00:22:58,904
Would you, would you say
that-that she was
522
00:22:58,947 --> 00:23:01,472
a... large woman?
523
00:23:01,515 --> 00:23:03,430
Or would you call
her average?
524
00:23:03,474 --> 00:23:08,043
Or-or-or might you use
the word "petite"?
525
00:23:08,087 --> 00:23:10,002
Petite.
526
00:23:10,045 --> 00:23:11,569
She was definitely petite.
527
00:23:11,612 --> 00:23:14,049
Petite.
528
00:23:14,093 --> 00:23:16,008
Got it.
529
00:23:17,792 --> 00:23:20,578
No further questions,
Your Honor.
530
00:23:20,621 --> 00:23:22,754
Let's take a 15 minute break.
531
00:23:25,670 --> 00:23:27,062
Nice work.
532
00:23:27,106 --> 00:23:29,021
You know...
533
00:23:30,588 --> 00:23:32,633
...for the first time,
I think, uh,
534
00:23:32,677 --> 00:23:34,722
we might actually have a
shot at winning this thing.
535
00:23:34,766 --> 00:23:37,116
I think so, too.
536
00:23:37,159 --> 00:23:39,684
And I think the plaintiff's
lawyer feels the same way,
537
00:23:39,727 --> 00:23:41,816
which is why I would urge you
to authorize me
538
00:23:41,860 --> 00:23:43,644
to use our newfound leverage
539
00:23:43,688 --> 00:23:46,865
to try again
and broker a settlement.
540
00:23:50,434 --> 00:23:54,438
Can you not feel the tension
in the air?
541
00:23:54,481 --> 00:23:56,788
I don't think there is a good
ending for our city,
542
00:23:56,831 --> 00:23:58,529
no matter which side wins.
543
00:23:58,572 --> 00:23:59,834
Dr. Bull,
544
00:23:59,878 --> 00:24:02,358
I hired you to clear
545
00:24:02,402 --> 00:24:04,926
this officer's good name.
546
00:24:04,970 --> 00:24:09,322
Why don't you worry about that
and let me worry about the city?
547
00:24:17,286 --> 00:24:19,158
When my client came through
the door, what state of dress
548
00:24:19,201 --> 00:24:22,074
or undress were you in?
549
00:24:22,117 --> 00:24:25,556
I had unbuttoned my pants and
I was pulling down my zipper.
550
00:24:26,644 --> 00:24:28,384
You must have been terrified.
551
00:24:28,428 --> 00:24:30,996
I was startled.
552
00:24:31,039 --> 00:24:33,041
My first concern was for my gun.
553
00:24:33,085 --> 00:24:35,435
It was on the sink
and I needed to secure it.
554
00:24:35,479 --> 00:24:38,394
So you weren't scared?
555
00:24:38,438 --> 00:24:40,527
There wasn't time to be scared.
556
00:24:40,571 --> 00:24:42,834
And besides, it didn't seem like
he was coming for me.
557
00:24:42,877 --> 00:24:44,662
It seemed like he was going
for my gun.
558
00:24:44,705 --> 00:24:47,578
And why would he be
going for the gun?
559
00:24:47,621 --> 00:24:49,928
And how would he have even
known that the person
560
00:24:49,971 --> 00:24:53,235
in the bathroom had a gun,
much less put it on the sink?
561
00:24:53,279 --> 00:24:57,718
That's a terrific question, and
one I don't have an answer to,
562
00:24:57,762 --> 00:24:59,677
except for the fact
that I could only deal
563
00:24:59,720 --> 00:25:02,114
with the information
that was in front of me.
564
00:25:02,157 --> 00:25:03,855
And the information
directly in front of me
565
00:25:03,898 --> 00:25:05,291
was that there was a man
566
00:25:05,334 --> 00:25:07,206
someplace he wasn't
supposed to be
567
00:25:07,249 --> 00:25:09,034
and he seemed to be going
for my gun.
568
00:25:09,077 --> 00:25:11,689
So that drove your
decision making?Absolutely.
569
00:25:11,732 --> 00:25:13,995
It didn't occur to you that
he might have been sick?
570
00:25:14,039 --> 00:25:16,389
That he might have been
going for the sink?
571
00:25:16,432 --> 00:25:17,912
I had no way of knowing that.
572
00:25:17,956 --> 00:25:20,611
He didn't look sick?
573
00:25:20,654 --> 00:25:21,742
His head was down.
574
00:25:21,786 --> 00:25:22,569
He stumbled, but...
575
00:25:22,613 --> 00:25:24,571
Did he look drunk?
576
00:25:24,615 --> 00:25:26,007
It was four steps between
the door and the sink.
577
00:25:26,051 --> 00:25:27,618
Did he look black?
578
00:25:27,661 --> 00:25:29,620
[sighs]
579
00:25:29,663 --> 00:25:31,578
He was black. He is black.
580
00:25:31,622 --> 00:25:34,363
Isn't that why you grabbed
for your gun?
581
00:25:34,407 --> 00:25:36,191
No. That's ridiculous.
582
00:25:36,235 --> 00:25:39,238
Without knowing what he
wanted, why he was there,
583
00:25:39,281 --> 00:25:41,240
you grabbed for your gun
because a black man
584
00:25:41,283 --> 00:25:43,590
was standing over you while
you went to the toilet,
585
00:25:43,634 --> 00:25:45,766
isn't that right?With all due respect,
586
00:25:45,810 --> 00:25:47,333
I was grabbing that gun
no matter who
587
00:25:47,376 --> 00:25:49,465
was standing over me
while I go to the toilet.
588
00:25:49,509 --> 00:25:52,599
[scoffs]
Did you struggle for the gun?
589
00:25:52,643 --> 00:25:54,558
No. I got to it first.
590
00:25:54,601 --> 00:25:56,255
I looked at the
bodycam footage.
591
00:25:56,298 --> 00:25:58,953
Didn't look to me like he
was even going for the gun.
592
00:25:58,997 --> 00:26:01,695
Is it possible
that you were wrong?
593
00:26:01,739 --> 00:26:04,611
Is it possible that h-he
wasn't going for the gun?
594
00:26:04,655 --> 00:26:05,612
You weren't there.
595
00:26:05,656 --> 00:26:06,700
Did you think he had a gun?
596
00:26:06,744 --> 00:26:09,529
It never crossed my mind.
597
00:26:09,573 --> 00:26:12,488
My only concern was that
he didn't take my gun.
598
00:26:12,532 --> 00:26:14,403
So I'm confused.
599
00:26:14,447 --> 00:26:16,536
If you had your gun,
and you weren't thinking
600
00:26:16,580 --> 00:26:18,146
about whether or
not he had one,
601
00:26:18,190 --> 00:26:20,235
then why were you pointing
it at him at all?
602
00:26:20,279 --> 00:26:22,411
Because...He was black?
603
00:26:22,455 --> 00:26:24,631
No.
604
00:26:24,675 --> 00:26:26,764
L-Look at the bodycam footage.
605
00:26:26,807 --> 00:26:29,027
The second I had the gun,
he was on me,
606
00:26:29,070 --> 00:26:31,116
trying to take the gun from me.
607
00:26:31,159 --> 00:26:33,640
Because you were
pointing it at him.
608
00:26:33,684 --> 00:26:35,729
Because he didn't
want to get shot.
609
00:26:35,773 --> 00:26:40,125
So the question is: why were
you pointing it at him at all?
610
00:26:40,168 --> 00:26:42,562
If all you wanted to do
was secure it,
611
00:26:42,606 --> 00:26:44,912
then why did you end up
pointing it at my client?
612
00:26:44,956 --> 00:26:47,654
Why did you end up
shooting my client?
613
00:26:47,698 --> 00:26:52,137
And isn't the answer
because he's black?
614
00:27:01,407 --> 00:27:03,888
Let's t-- let's
take a break.
615
00:27:03,931 --> 00:27:05,977
You okay?
616
00:27:08,719 --> 00:27:11,373
I'm thinking this is,
uh, about a tenth
617
00:27:11,417 --> 00:27:13,593
of what you can expect
to face on the stand
618
00:27:13,637 --> 00:27:15,160
when Malia Ford
questions you.
619
00:27:15,203 --> 00:27:17,684
You can't let her bait you.
620
00:27:17,728 --> 00:27:19,773
You can't let her anger you.
621
00:27:19,817 --> 00:27:22,733
This is her technique.
It's what she does.
622
00:27:22,776 --> 00:27:24,952
She's famous for it.
623
00:27:24,996 --> 00:27:27,563
You okay?
Mm.
624
00:27:29,522 --> 00:27:31,655
Great.
625
00:27:31,698 --> 00:27:33,047
Let's go to court.
626
00:27:33,091 --> 00:27:36,224
[crowd shouting]
627
00:27:43,928 --> 00:27:47,061
TONYA [on video]:
Halt! NYPD. Halt!
628
00:27:47,105 --> 00:27:48,759
W-What are you doing?
629
00:27:48,802 --> 00:27:51,718
Let go. Let go of the gun!
630
00:27:51,762 --> 00:27:53,024
[groans]
631
00:27:53,067 --> 00:27:55,853
CAL:
Oh, my God, you shot me!
632
00:27:55,896 --> 00:27:57,463
You really shot me. Oh.
633
00:27:57,506 --> 00:28:00,466
TONYA:
Precinct 55. Charlie to Cent...
634
00:28:00,509 --> 00:28:03,077
Wow. That's quite a tape.
635
00:28:05,819 --> 00:28:08,300
I'm sure you won't forget
anything about that night
636
00:28:08,343 --> 00:28:10,171
for years to come.
637
00:28:10,215 --> 00:28:12,826
Burned in my memory.
638
00:28:12,870 --> 00:28:15,133
So what color jacket
was my client wearing?
639
00:28:15,176 --> 00:28:16,917
Excuse me?
640
00:28:16,961 --> 00:28:19,137
What color sports jacket?
641
00:28:19,180 --> 00:28:21,139
Was it black?
642
00:28:21,182 --> 00:28:23,532
Was it blue? Was it brown?
643
00:28:25,839 --> 00:28:27,754
The witness will please answer.
644
00:28:27,798 --> 00:28:29,800
MALIA:
It's all right.
645
00:28:29,843 --> 00:28:32,367
I withdraw the question.
646
00:28:32,411 --> 00:28:34,848
But do you happen to recall
647
00:28:34,892 --> 00:28:37,416
the color of his shirt?
648
00:28:37,459 --> 00:28:40,332
I don't know.
649
00:28:40,375 --> 00:28:42,769
Mm. White?
650
00:28:42,813 --> 00:28:43,944
Mm.
651
00:28:43,988 --> 00:28:45,250
Yellow?
652
00:28:45,293 --> 00:28:47,252
Mmm.
653
00:28:47,295 --> 00:28:48,775
It was a very light blue.
654
00:28:48,819 --> 00:28:50,777
Mm.
655
00:28:50,821 --> 00:28:52,997
Now how about his face?
656
00:28:53,040 --> 00:28:54,781
Objection, Your Honor.
657
00:28:54,825 --> 00:28:56,827
Counsel is...[alarm blares]
658
00:28:58,002 --> 00:28:59,960
Ladies and gentlemen,
we've received a bomb threat.
659
00:29:00,004 --> 00:29:01,657
We're gonna need everyone to
leave the courthouse right now.
660
00:29:07,663 --> 00:29:09,143
CHUNK: According to
the commissioner's office,
661
00:29:09,187 --> 00:29:12,756
the bomb threat was specifically
targeted to our courtroom.
662
00:29:12,799 --> 00:29:15,410
Rather remarkable piece
of timing, actually.
663
00:29:15,454 --> 00:29:18,370
You took the words
right out of my mouth.
664
00:29:20,676 --> 00:29:22,983
That was not
great in there.
665
00:29:23,027 --> 00:29:26,117
You... you were not
great in there.
666
00:29:26,160 --> 00:29:29,163
I know.
667
00:29:29,207 --> 00:29:31,513
She makes me nervous.
668
00:29:31,557 --> 00:29:34,429
Well, maybe you want to
come down with something?
669
00:29:34,473 --> 00:29:36,910
So you don't have
to continue today?
670
00:29:38,694 --> 00:29:41,697
Boss. We got the all clear.
Everyone's headed back in.
671
00:29:44,788 --> 00:29:45,876
I'm fine.
672
00:29:45,919 --> 00:29:47,878
Are you sure?
673
00:29:47,921 --> 00:29:50,097
I'm fine.
674
00:29:53,187 --> 00:29:55,842
MALIA:
Now, where did we
leave off? Oh, yes,
675
00:29:55,886 --> 00:29:58,802
I was asking if you remember the
color of Mr. Peterson's face.
676
00:29:58,845 --> 00:30:01,587
It was black.
677
00:30:01,630 --> 00:30:03,502
We all know it was black.
678
00:30:03,545 --> 00:30:05,852
And it's your testimony that
that did not contribute
679
00:30:05,896 --> 00:30:07,898
in any way to your decision
to shoot him?
680
00:30:07,941 --> 00:30:10,814
Of course not.
681
00:30:10,857 --> 00:30:13,077
So, then, logically,
what you're really saying is,
682
00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:15,906
no matter who walked in
that room,
683
00:30:15,949 --> 00:30:18,169
you were gonna react
the same way.BENNY: Objection.
684
00:30:18,212 --> 00:30:20,388
Counsel is testifying.
685
00:30:20,432 --> 00:30:23,783
Overruled.
You may answer the question.
686
00:30:29,136 --> 00:30:31,835
Yes. No matter who
came through the door,
687
00:30:31,878 --> 00:30:33,662
I would have reacted
the same.
688
00:30:33,706 --> 00:30:35,099
An old woman?
689
00:30:35,142 --> 00:30:38,189
Yes. I believe so.
690
00:30:38,232 --> 00:30:40,452
You believe so?
691
00:30:40,495 --> 00:30:41,888
What about a child?
692
00:30:41,932 --> 00:30:43,977
A boy, a four-year-old boy?
693
00:30:44,021 --> 00:30:45,979
Your Honor, these are all
ridiculous hypotheticals.
694
00:30:46,023 --> 00:30:48,329
The attorney is badgering
the witness.
695
00:30:48,373 --> 00:30:50,941
I sense the attorney is trying
to make a point; I'll allow it,
696
00:30:50,984 --> 00:30:54,988
but let's get to it sooner
rather than later.
697
00:30:55,032 --> 00:30:56,903
I was asking about a child.
698
00:30:56,947 --> 00:31:00,211
A four-year-old boy,
you'd still point your gun?
699
00:31:00,254 --> 00:31:01,560
Of course not.
700
00:31:01,603 --> 00:31:04,476
Then it's not true.
701
00:31:04,519 --> 00:31:06,217
Despite your earlier testimony
702
00:31:06,260 --> 00:31:08,045
that no matter who walked
through the door,
703
00:31:08,088 --> 00:31:10,134
you were gonna behave
the same way.
704
00:31:10,177 --> 00:31:12,658
For some people
you point your gun,
705
00:31:12,701 --> 00:31:15,966
for others, no.
And, frankly,
706
00:31:16,009 --> 00:31:18,229
I think that's good.
707
00:31:18,272 --> 00:31:19,839
You're a professional.
708
00:31:19,883 --> 00:31:21,449
You should apply
critical thinking
709
00:31:21,493 --> 00:31:23,495
to a decision like this.
710
00:31:23,538 --> 00:31:25,758
So...
711
00:31:25,801 --> 00:31:29,370
at what age do you start
pointing your gun?
712
00:31:29,414 --> 00:31:31,764
If a person's 12?BENNY: Objection!
713
00:31:31,807 --> 00:31:34,158
JUDGE STALDER:
The point, please.14?
714
00:31:34,201 --> 00:31:38,292
It's a 20-year-old boy
instead of a 38-year-old man,
715
00:31:38,336 --> 00:31:40,164
you point your gun?
716
00:31:41,774 --> 00:31:44,951
What if it's a
20-year-old black boy?
717
00:31:44,995 --> 00:31:46,126
Come on.
BENNY:
Your Honor?
718
00:31:48,433 --> 00:31:51,131
[sighs]
You want the truth?
719
00:31:51,175 --> 00:31:52,263
Well, that would be nice.
720
00:31:52,306 --> 00:31:54,004
You always apply
critical thinking
721
00:31:54,047 --> 00:31:55,919
before you point your gun.
722
00:31:55,962 --> 00:31:58,138
But where does that
critical thinking come from?
723
00:31:59,270 --> 00:32:02,838
Two places-- your training
and your experience.
724
00:32:02,882 --> 00:32:07,408
And I'm sorry.
In my experience doing this job,
725
00:32:07,452 --> 00:32:10,585
if I'm in a women's bathroom,
and a man--
726
00:32:10,629 --> 00:32:13,980
yes, a black man--
if a black man
727
00:32:14,024 --> 00:32:17,679
walks into it at 2:00 in the
morning, and moves for my gun...[gallery clamoring]
728
00:32:17,723 --> 00:32:19,638
[gavel bangs]...I'm gonna get it first,
and I'm gonna
729
00:32:19,681 --> 00:32:21,161
point it at him,
and anybody...[gavel banging]
730
00:32:21,205 --> 00:32:23,076
...who does what I do
for a living
731
00:32:23,120 --> 00:32:24,991
and says any different
is a liar!
732
00:32:25,035 --> 00:32:26,993
[gallery clamoring]
733
00:32:27,037 --> 00:32:29,387
I have no further questions,
Your Honor.
734
00:32:40,920 --> 00:32:43,096
I'm so sorry.
735
00:32:43,140 --> 00:32:45,142
So, so sorry.
736
00:32:45,185 --> 00:32:47,361
I can't believe I did that.
737
00:32:47,405 --> 00:32:49,363
I just...
738
00:32:49,407 --> 00:32:51,409
I cracked.
739
00:32:55,587 --> 00:32:57,589
How bad is it?
740
00:32:58,851 --> 00:33:01,419
For our case?
741
00:33:01,462 --> 00:33:03,987
I'd say it's
fairly catastrophic.
742
00:33:12,908 --> 00:33:14,214
You want to tell me
what the hell happened
743
00:33:14,258 --> 00:33:15,433
in court today, Dr. Bull?
744
00:33:15,476 --> 00:33:17,348
No big deal.
745
00:33:17,391 --> 00:33:20,177
It's just, your totally innocent
officer decided
746
00:33:20,220 --> 00:33:22,831
to act on the stand
like she was... totally guilty.
747
00:33:22,875 --> 00:33:24,485
It happens all the...
748
00:33:24,529 --> 00:33:26,661
Wait. Actually,
it never happens.
749
00:33:26,705 --> 00:33:28,315
Well, I'm glad you're so amused.
750
00:33:28,359 --> 00:33:31,318
I've got reports that
my officers are being attacked
751
00:33:31,362 --> 00:33:33,233
all over the city,
and right now,
752
00:33:33,277 --> 00:33:37,063
I got a patrol car burning
in front of One Police Plaza.
753
00:33:37,107 --> 00:33:39,065
We told you what to do.
754
00:33:39,109 --> 00:33:41,154
Yes, you did.
755
00:33:41,198 --> 00:33:43,765
You win. I give up.
756
00:33:43,809 --> 00:33:46,594
You were right, so, let's
move to plan B, shall we?
757
00:33:46,638 --> 00:33:48,596
Sit down and settle this thing.
758
00:33:48,640 --> 00:33:50,076
Offer them
whatever you have to,
759
00:33:50,120 --> 00:33:51,425
but just do it quickly.
760
00:33:52,470 --> 00:33:54,298
We'll start making calls.
761
00:33:58,824 --> 00:34:00,826
[line ringing]
762
00:34:02,523 --> 00:34:06,005
On second thought, let's not
make any calls till morning.
763
00:34:08,007 --> 00:34:10,488
What she said was indefensible.
764
00:34:10,531 --> 00:34:11,706
I second that.
765
00:34:11,750 --> 00:34:15,101
[sighs]
Indefensible. Absolutely.
766
00:34:15,145 --> 00:34:17,799
The thing is, I'm not sure
I believe any of it.
767
00:34:17,843 --> 00:34:20,150
What do you mean?
768
00:34:20,193 --> 00:34:22,413
Well, in the car after court,
769
00:34:22,456 --> 00:34:24,980
she was saying
how sorry she was.
770
00:34:25,024 --> 00:34:27,113
She was shaking her head
the whole time,
771
00:34:27,157 --> 00:34:29,115
and it's not an absolute,
772
00:34:29,159 --> 00:34:31,987
but sometimes, that can indicate
773
00:34:32,031 --> 00:34:35,165
a person doesn't believe
what they're saying.
774
00:34:35,208 --> 00:34:37,471
Well, wait.
Why wouldn't she be sorry?
775
00:34:37,515 --> 00:34:41,736
Her testimony basically
torpedoed the city's whole case.
776
00:34:41,780 --> 00:34:43,608
I don't know.
It's just a feeling.
777
00:34:43,651 --> 00:34:44,957
DANNY:
Please.
778
00:34:45,000 --> 00:34:46,654
She's a racist.
779
00:34:46,698 --> 00:34:48,308
Uh, people show you one face
780
00:34:48,352 --> 00:34:50,702
when they know you're looking,
but the other one,
781
00:34:50,745 --> 00:34:52,312
the real one--
782
00:34:52,356 --> 00:34:55,141
it's always just peeking out
just a little bit,
783
00:34:55,185 --> 00:34:57,274
laughing at you for getting
suckered by the mask.
784
00:34:57,317 --> 00:34:59,145
If you say so.
785
00:35:00,407 --> 00:35:02,409
It's not what I'm feeling.
786
00:35:05,151 --> 00:35:07,284
Tomorrow?
787
00:35:07,327 --> 00:35:09,242
Tomorrow.
[clears throat]
788
00:35:10,504 --> 00:35:12,463
Danny, you have a copy
of that bodycam tape?
789
00:35:12,506 --> 00:35:14,160
I want to give it another look.
790
00:35:14,204 --> 00:35:16,293
Yeah, I'll send you the link.
791
00:35:16,336 --> 00:35:17,642
One last thing.
792
00:35:20,210 --> 00:35:24,127
Does anybody know where Cal
Peterson ended up throwing up?
793
00:35:24,170 --> 00:35:26,694
Well, he was sick.
794
00:35:26,738 --> 00:35:29,262
So sick he had to go
to the women's room.
795
00:35:29,306 --> 00:35:32,309
But I don't recall hearing
about where he threw up.
796
00:35:32,352 --> 00:35:35,486
You're right.
There was nothing about it
797
00:35:35,529 --> 00:35:38,053
in the crime scene photos,
nothing in the notes.
798
00:35:39,490 --> 00:35:40,882
I get the feeling
799
00:35:40,926 --> 00:35:43,363
we're not making any
settlement calls any time soon.
800
00:35:43,407 --> 00:35:45,322
I get the feeling
we should order in.
801
00:35:46,932 --> 00:35:48,194
[crowd shouting]
802
00:35:48,238 --> 00:35:50,065
SCOTT:
Gentlemen?
803
00:35:50,109 --> 00:35:51,850
Where are we?
804
00:35:51,893 --> 00:35:54,200
Why am I totally
in the blind here?
805
00:35:54,244 --> 00:35:56,071
Have we commenced
settlement discussions yet?
806
00:35:56,115 --> 00:35:58,770
We have not.I don't understand.
807
00:35:58,813 --> 00:36:01,903
You want the good news
or the bad news?Oh, come on.
808
00:36:01,947 --> 00:36:03,862
I have finally come to believe
809
00:36:03,905 --> 00:36:05,646
this case isn't
about race at all,
810
00:36:05,690 --> 00:36:08,388
and I think that is cause
for celebration.
811
00:36:08,432 --> 00:36:09,955
I'm not following you.
812
00:36:09,998 --> 00:36:12,697
I think it's really about good
old-fashioned American greed.
813
00:36:14,264 --> 00:36:15,656
And isn't it great
to know there exists
814
00:36:15,700 --> 00:36:17,615
at least two people
in this world who can finally
815
00:36:17,658 --> 00:36:20,531
look past race or skin color
or religious differences
816
00:36:20,574 --> 00:36:23,273
long enough to try and rip off
the City of New York
817
00:36:23,316 --> 00:36:25,188
for a few million dollars?
818
00:36:31,237 --> 00:36:34,371
Now, from your
tox screen report,
819
00:36:34,414 --> 00:36:36,416
we know that not
only were you
820
00:36:36,460 --> 00:36:38,331
legally intoxicated
the night of the shooting,
821
00:36:38,375 --> 00:36:40,072
but you were also high on Molly,
822
00:36:40,115 --> 00:36:42,770
as well.
823
00:36:42,814 --> 00:36:44,381
Mr. Peterson, I'm wondering
824
00:36:44,424 --> 00:36:47,558
if you might have been high
and drunk that night on purpose.
825
00:36:47,601 --> 00:36:50,735
I'm sorry.
I don't understand the question.
826
00:36:50,778 --> 00:36:53,607
Well, I'm asking if perhaps
you drank to excess
827
00:36:53,651 --> 00:36:55,522
and took some MDMA
in anticipation
828
00:36:55,566 --> 00:36:57,002
of getting shot that night.
829
00:36:57,045 --> 00:36:58,221
[gallery murmuring]
830
00:36:58,264 --> 00:37:00,614
A little something
to numb the pain.
831
00:37:00,658 --> 00:37:03,748
Objection! Now counsel is making
absurd assertions
832
00:37:03,791 --> 00:37:05,750
in the hopes
of confusing the jury
833
00:37:05,793 --> 00:37:08,013
and obfuscating facts
already in evidence.
834
00:37:08,056 --> 00:37:09,754
Mr. Colón, I think
835
00:37:09,797 --> 00:37:11,625
this courtroom has already seen
enough drama.
836
00:37:11,669 --> 00:37:14,628
I agree, Your Honor,
but I promise if
837
00:37:14,672 --> 00:37:16,587
you'll bear with
me a moment longer,
838
00:37:16,630 --> 00:37:18,066
I will substantiate
my allegations.
839
00:37:18,110 --> 00:37:20,939
Well, you'd better, or I will be
holding you in contempt.
840
00:37:20,982 --> 00:37:23,507
It's a simple question,
Mr. Peterson.
841
00:37:23,550 --> 00:37:26,292
Did you barge into that
bathroom that night
842
00:37:26,336 --> 00:37:27,859
knowing full well
that you were going
843
00:37:27,902 --> 00:37:29,643
to get shot by Officer Harris?
844
00:37:29,687 --> 00:37:31,036
[scoffs]
845
00:37:31,079 --> 00:37:33,647
Why would I want
to get shot by a cop?
846
00:37:33,691 --> 00:37:37,912
So we could all end up here,
847
00:37:37,956 --> 00:37:41,438
with you suing the City
of New York for $25 million.
848
00:37:41,481 --> 00:37:42,743
[laughing]
That's ridiculous.
849
00:37:42,787 --> 00:37:44,179
Well, yes.
850
00:37:44,223 --> 00:37:47,444
Unless of course,
Officer Harris was in on it.

Your Honor, do I even
853
00:37:50,316 --> 00:37:53,145
need to cite an objection?
This-this is outlandish![gavel bangs]

[gallery murmuring]
855
00:37:55,016 --> 00:37:57,845
Yes, it is outlandish,
Your Honor, but I can assure you
856
00:37:57,889 --> 00:38:00,892
that I can prove that
Cal Peterson and Tonya Harris
857
00:38:00,935 --> 00:38:03,373
are not the strangers
they've been pretending to be.
858
00:38:03,416 --> 00:38:04,765
That, in fact,
859
00:38:04,809 --> 00:38:07,333
they've been romantically
involved for months now.

What the hell is he doing?

00:38:10,684 --> 00:38:13,731
You people are supposed
to be defending me.
Hmm.
863
00:38:13,774 --> 00:38:15,994
Technically, the City of
New York is our client.
864
00:38:16,037 --> 00:38:18,344
Since it seems you're
trying to swindle the city,
865
00:38:18,388 --> 00:38:20,912
I fear you and I have a
serious conflict of interest.

[gavel banging]
867
00:38:22,348 --> 00:38:24,524
Mr. Peterson, is this true?
868
00:38:24,568 --> 00:38:25,830
Did you
869
00:38:25,873 --> 00:38:27,658
plan this shooting
with Officer Harris?
870
00:38:27,701 --> 00:38:29,660
Absolutely not.
871
00:38:29,703 --> 00:38:31,531
Look at the bodycam footage.
872
00:38:31,575 --> 00:38:33,011
I'm wrestling her for the gun.
873
00:38:33,054 --> 00:38:35,100
Were you?
874
00:38:35,143 --> 00:38:37,885
That's funny,
because the more I look at it,
875
00:38:37,929 --> 00:38:41,411
the more it looks like you were
holding the barrel of the gun
876
00:38:41,454 --> 00:38:43,500
to make sure
that the bullet went

00:38:43,543 --> 00:38:45,328
into your arm
and not your chest.
878
00:38:45,371 --> 00:38:47,112
[gallery murmuring]But...
879
00:38:47,155 --> 00:38:49,593
that could just be me.
880
00:38:49,636 --> 00:38:51,725
While you're thinking about it,
I'd like to enter
881
00:38:51,769 --> 00:38:55,120
into evidence
this certified business record
882
00:38:55,163 --> 00:38:59,037
of a history of Cal Peterson's
ridesharing customers.
883
00:38:59,080 --> 00:39:00,821
And let the record reflect
884
00:39:00,865 --> 00:39:02,345
that ten months ago,
885
00:39:02,388 --> 00:39:05,696
he drove a Miss Tonya Harris.
886
00:39:05,739 --> 00:39:08,089
Yeah. It's not surprising.
887
00:39:08,133 --> 00:39:11,658
We all know he likes
to use the ridesharing vehicle
888
00:39:11,702 --> 00:39:13,094
as his personal dating app.
889
00:39:13,138 --> 00:39:16,881
I drive hundreds of women,
probably thousands.
890
00:39:16,924 --> 00:39:18,883
[chuckles]
891
00:39:18,926 --> 00:39:22,365
But in truth, I don'tremember
driving that woman.
892
00:39:29,589 --> 00:39:31,199
BENNY:
Mr. Peterson,
893
00:39:31,243 --> 00:39:34,942
would it surprise you
to know that the...
894
00:39:34,986 --> 00:39:38,511
front desk clerk at the
Bridgecroft Motel in Astoria
895
00:39:38,555 --> 00:39:41,993
remembers checking you in
at least 23 times
896
00:39:42,036 --> 00:39:43,429
in the last
ten months?
897
00:39:43,473 --> 00:39:45,910
No. It wouldn't surprise me.
898
00:39:45,953 --> 00:39:48,086
My roommates can get loud.
899
00:39:48,129 --> 00:39:50,741
Sometimes I rent a cheap room
to grade papers,
900
00:39:50,784 --> 00:39:54,745
prepare lesson plans. Alone.
901
00:39:54,788 --> 00:39:56,747
[inhales sharply]
902
00:39:56,790 --> 00:39:58,444
Are you aware
903
00:39:58,488 --> 00:40:00,925
that there is video surveillance
cameras in the hallways,
904
00:40:00,968 --> 00:40:06,539
so the clerk can see if,
say, Tonya Harris decided
905
00:40:06,583 --> 00:40:09,063
to join you
in your room?
906
00:40:09,107 --> 00:40:11,501
I'd be happy to enter
the video surveillance cameras
907
00:40:11,544 --> 00:40:12,980
into evidence if you'd like.
908
00:40:13,024 --> 00:40:16,462
Or perhaps I can just call
Tonya Harris to the stand,
909
00:40:16,506 --> 00:40:19,857
see what she has to say.
910
00:40:19,900 --> 00:40:22,207
But...
911
00:40:22,250 --> 00:40:24,731
you know,
as a former prosecutor,
912
00:40:24,775 --> 00:40:28,735
I should tell you that
the person who confesses first
913
00:40:28,779 --> 00:40:31,303
is usually the one
who gets the lighter sentence.
914
00:40:44,838 --> 00:40:48,276
You are still under oath,
Officer Harris.
915
00:40:53,760 --> 00:40:57,851
We were lying in bed one night
at the Bridgecroft Motel,
916
00:40:57,895 --> 00:41:03,291
and he turned to me,
and he said...
917
00:41:03,335 --> 00:41:08,383
"You know, darlin',
I'd take a bullet for you."
918
00:41:11,386 --> 00:41:14,477
And the idea just grew
from there.
919
00:41:29,622 --> 00:41:32,364
How many years you
think they'll get?
920
00:41:32,407 --> 00:41:34,714
Whatever it is,
it's not long enough.
921
00:41:37,891 --> 00:41:40,851
I'm not sure I ever
made it clear, but...
922
00:41:40,894 --> 00:41:43,593
I admire the
hell out of you.
923
00:41:46,900 --> 00:41:48,641
[chuckles softly]
924
00:41:48,685 --> 00:41:50,556
[sighs]
925
00:41:50,600 --> 00:41:52,993
Would you like to get a drink?
926
00:41:55,039 --> 00:41:58,869
I would love to
get a drink, but, uh...
927
00:41:58,912 --> 00:42:00,087
[inhales sharply]
928
00:42:00,131 --> 00:42:03,177
I'm sort of between drinks
right now.
929
00:42:06,006 --> 00:42:08,487
If that circumstance
should ever change,
930
00:42:08,531 --> 00:42:10,576
you can be sure
that I will, uh...
931
00:42:10,620 --> 00:42:13,448
I'll call you first.
932
00:42:13,492 --> 00:42:16,147
Well, we don't have to drink.
933
00:42:16,190 --> 00:42:18,889
Oh, trust me. If you're gonna be
spending any time
934
00:42:18,932 --> 00:42:21,456
with me at all,
you are gonna need a drink.
935
00:42:21,500 --> 00:42:22,893
I have that on good authority
936
00:42:22,936 --> 00:42:25,548
from a great
many women.[laughs]
937
00:42:28,028 --> 00:42:31,249
Well, don't look now, but...
938
00:42:31,292 --> 00:42:34,382
I just might call you.
939
00:42:37,037 --> 00:42:39,518
Don't you threaten me,
young lady.[laughs]
