178
00:09:03,156 --> 00:09:06,115
it is not unusual for a man
of Mr. Condron's
179
00:09:06,159 --> 00:09:08,161
size and age to have
some challenges
180
00:09:08,204 --> 00:09:11,425
with regard to
equilibrium and mobility.
181
00:09:11,468 --> 00:09:12,818
But we are not here
to adjudicate
182
00:09:12,861 --> 00:09:14,820
Mr. Condron's
physical limitations.
183
00:09:14,863 --> 00:09:17,649
We are here to decide
whether the city bears
184
00:09:17,692 --> 00:09:21,043
any responsibility
in what happened.
185
00:09:21,087 --> 00:09:24,786
And I think the answer
is pretty doggone clear.
186
00:09:24,830 --> 00:09:26,222
CONDRON:
Mr. Colón.
187
00:09:26,266 --> 00:09:28,921
Mr. Colón.
188
00:09:28,964 --> 00:09:30,444
I just want to say thank you.
189
00:09:30,487 --> 00:09:32,533
Hmm.I think you did
a hell of a job in there.
190
00:09:32,577 --> 00:09:34,622
Ah. Sorry I wasn't able
to do better by you.
191
00:09:34,666 --> 00:09:35,841
[chuckles]:
Hey, come on.
192
00:09:35,884 --> 00:09:38,365
The city's paying
for my hospital bills,
193
00:09:38,408 --> 00:09:40,541
my lawyer bills.
[chuckles]
194
00:09:40,585 --> 00:09:43,109
There's no crime
in breaking even, right?
195
00:09:43,152 --> 00:09:45,198
[grunts]
Who knows?
196
00:09:46,591 --> 00:09:48,854
Maybe we'll do this again
sometime, huh?
197
00:09:50,899 --> 00:09:52,858
God, I hope not.
198
00:09:52,901 --> 00:09:56,078
BULL:
Didn't I see that guy on the
cover of Slip and Suemagazine?
199
00:09:58,298 --> 00:09:59,908
[chuckles]:
What are you doing?
200
00:09:59,952 --> 00:10:02,215
Earning a living.
What are you doing?
201
00:10:02,258 --> 00:10:05,131
Seeing what it would take
to get you back.
202
00:10:06,698 --> 00:10:08,656
Truthfully,
203
00:10:08,700 --> 00:10:11,485
I don't think you're capable
of doing what it would take.
204
00:10:12,529 --> 00:10:13,922
I'll do anything.
205
00:10:13,966 --> 00:10:16,446
No. You're not hearing me.
206
00:10:16,490 --> 00:10:19,101
I didn't say
you wouldn't want to.
207
00:10:19,145 --> 00:10:22,409
I said I didn't think you could.
208
00:10:22,452 --> 00:10:24,411
Name it.
209
00:10:24,454 --> 00:10:27,719
Respect me.
Show me some respect.
210
00:10:27,762 --> 00:10:29,851
Done.[chuckles softly]
211
00:10:29,895 --> 00:10:32,767
You know, i-if you really
understood what respect was,
212
00:10:32,811 --> 00:10:33,942
you wouldn't have answered that
so quickly.
213
00:10:33,986 --> 00:10:36,597
[sighs]
What are you talking about?
214
00:10:36,641 --> 00:10:38,425
I've always
respected you, Benny.
215
00:10:38,468 --> 00:10:40,209
Really?
216
00:10:40,253 --> 00:10:42,734
Accepting cases
without consulting me?
217
00:10:42,777 --> 00:10:44,953
It's my company, Benny.
218
00:10:44,997 --> 00:10:46,476
All these years
in court together,
219
00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:48,174
have you ever once
asked my opinion?
220
00:10:48,217 --> 00:10:49,915
[scoffs]My point of view?
221
00:10:49,958 --> 00:10:51,264
This is ridiculous.
222
00:10:51,307 --> 00:10:54,484
Ah, unless we forget
what you did to my sister
223
00:10:54,528 --> 00:10:56,617
at my father's funeral.
224
00:10:56,661 --> 00:10:59,533
We're having a baby.
225
00:10:59,576 --> 00:11:01,622
We're very happy,
226
00:11:01,666 --> 00:11:04,016
and the only thing
we're missing is you.
227
00:11:04,059 --> 00:11:07,628
Oh, don't you worry,
gonna be there for the baby
228
00:11:07,672 --> 00:11:09,630
and I'm always there
for my sister.
229
00:11:09,674 --> 00:11:12,459
I know you're hurt.
230
00:11:12,502 --> 00:11:14,461
I know you're looking
for someone to blame,
231
00:11:14,504 --> 00:11:17,290
someone to unload the hurt on,
232
00:11:17,333 --> 00:11:20,293
but sometimes
things just happen.
233
00:11:20,336 --> 00:11:21,947
They just do.
234
00:11:21,990 --> 00:11:25,646
Words of wisdom coming from a
man who fornicates at funerals.
235
00:11:25,690 --> 00:11:28,867
Come on. You know and I know
why you're here. You need me.
236
00:11:28,910 --> 00:11:32,348
Yes. I do.
237
00:11:32,392 --> 00:11:34,481
Well, you can start
with an apology.
238
00:11:34,524 --> 00:11:38,311
I am sorry.
239
00:11:38,354 --> 00:11:39,878
Unprompted.
240
00:11:39,921 --> 00:11:41,488
Like you actually meant it.
241
00:11:41,531 --> 00:11:44,970
Well, let's not forget
you punched me.
242
00:11:45,013 --> 00:11:46,362
Where's my apology?
243
00:11:46,406 --> 00:11:49,801
You should check the weather
in hell, my friend.
244
00:11:49,844 --> 00:11:51,672
Where are you going?
245
00:11:51,716 --> 00:11:55,067
Oh, yeah, the trial's over.
246
00:11:55,110 --> 00:11:56,416
You gonna hit the streets,
247
00:11:56,459 --> 00:11:58,505
see if you can find
a new ambulance to chase?
248
00:11:58,548 --> 00:11:59,985
[door slams]
249
00:12:00,028 --> 00:12:01,943
Did you just give me the finger?
250
00:12:01,987 --> 00:12:03,989
♪
251
00:12:09,821 --> 00:12:11,953
So I went to the owner.
252
00:12:11,997 --> 00:12:13,128
It just seemed
really clear to me
253
00:12:13,172 --> 00:12:14,695
that we needed
to cut the guy off.
254
00:12:14,739 --> 00:12:17,132
But not because you thought
he might do harm to someone?
255
00:12:17,176 --> 00:12:20,309
No, no. Uh, I had no way
of knowing that.
256
00:12:20,353 --> 00:12:23,138
Just because he seemed
so out of it.
257
00:12:23,182 --> 00:12:25,140
But the owner disagreed?
258
00:12:25,184 --> 00:12:28,013
He was worried
the guy would make a scene.
259
00:12:28,056 --> 00:12:30,798
The place was packed.
He didn't want an incident.
260
00:12:30,842 --> 00:12:32,669
So you gave him another drink?
261
00:12:32,713 --> 00:12:36,021
I didn't feel I had a choice.
262
00:12:36,064 --> 00:12:38,153
I needed my job.
263
00:12:38,197 --> 00:12:40,025
BULL: Pretty good witness,
wouldn't you say?
264
00:12:40,068 --> 00:12:42,201
I mean, she was so concerned
for the man's safety,
265
00:12:42,244 --> 00:12:44,290
she followed him home.
266
00:12:44,333 --> 00:12:46,161
By the way,
we are still on the hunt
267
00:12:46,205 --> 00:12:47,467
for the cabbie who drove her.
268
00:12:47,510 --> 00:12:50,339
I think he could be a,
an important witness.
269
00:12:50,383 --> 00:12:53,516
Whatever you say,
but I don't want to go to trial.
270
00:12:53,560 --> 00:12:55,344
I don't follow.
271
00:12:55,388 --> 00:12:58,608
Well, let's look
at the endgame here.
272
00:12:58,652 --> 00:13:00,088
The man who killed
all those people,
273
00:13:00,132 --> 00:13:02,177
he was shot dead by the police.
274
00:13:02,221 --> 00:13:04,136
The bar itself
has gone out of business,
275
00:13:04,179 --> 00:13:05,572
and the owner's
nowhere to be found.
276
00:13:05,615 --> 00:13:07,400
And the victim's family
are looking
277
00:13:07,443 --> 00:13:08,705
for their pound
of flesh,
278
00:13:08,749 --> 00:13:11,796
and the only flesh
they can find is your client,
279
00:13:11,839 --> 00:13:13,667
who, by the way,
happens to be the daughter
280
00:13:13,710 --> 00:13:14,799
of a very wealthy man.
281
00:13:14,842 --> 00:13:16,452
You lost me.
282
00:13:16,496 --> 00:13:18,890
What does this have to do
with us not going to trial?
283
00:13:18,933 --> 00:13:20,369
Let me finish.
Managing situations like this,
284
00:13:20,413 --> 00:13:21,675
it's what I do for a living.
285
00:13:21,718 --> 00:13:24,156
Tomorrow morning
I'm gonna go down to the D.A.,
286
00:13:24,199 --> 00:13:26,332
see if I can get this pled down
to a misdemeanor.
287
00:13:26,375 --> 00:13:28,682
She would still have a record,
288
00:13:28,725 --> 00:13:31,598
and given the hysteria
in the media,
289
00:13:31,641 --> 00:13:34,035
she would almost certainly
do jail time.
290
00:13:34,079 --> 00:13:35,645
Yeah, but not 20 years.
291
00:13:35,689 --> 00:13:37,778
And we avoid
a criminal trial altogether
292
00:13:37,822 --> 00:13:39,301
and get right to the main event.
293
00:13:39,345 --> 00:13:40,737
Which is?
294
00:13:40,781 --> 00:13:42,870
The civil trial.
295
00:13:42,914 --> 00:13:45,177
I mean, bottom line,
296
00:13:45,220 --> 00:13:46,787
they may not know it yet,
297
00:13:46,831 --> 00:13:48,920
but what all these victims'
families are really looking for
298
00:13:48,963 --> 00:13:50,965
is settlement money
from your client.
299
00:13:51,009 --> 00:13:52,532
And then,
300
00:13:52,575 --> 00:13:54,882
once everybody's got
their "feel better" money,
301
00:13:54,926 --> 00:13:57,189
it'll be easy to get our girl
early release.
302
00:13:57,232 --> 00:13:59,147
On the other hand,
we could go to court,
303
00:13:59,191 --> 00:14:01,454
make our case, convince a jury,
304
00:14:01,497 --> 00:14:03,891
and then there would be
no jail time,
305
00:14:03,935 --> 00:14:06,546
there would be no civil trial,
there would be no settlements,
306
00:14:06,589 --> 00:14:08,809
and, I don't know,
that kind of makes sense to me
307
00:14:08,853 --> 00:14:11,420
because she didn't do anything.
308
00:14:11,464 --> 00:14:14,075
You're not hearing me, Dr. Bull.
I'm not going to trial.
309
00:14:14,119 --> 00:14:16,904
Mr. Perry, keep in mind,
I hired you.
310
00:14:16,948 --> 00:14:19,385
Dr. Bull, you came to me
311
00:14:19,428 --> 00:14:21,039
because you needed somebody
to ride shotgun
312
00:14:21,082 --> 00:14:22,257
with you
on this thing.
313
00:14:22,301 --> 00:14:24,259
Now, you don't come
to a firm like mine
314
00:14:24,303 --> 00:14:25,870
because you want to go to trial.
315
00:14:25,913 --> 00:14:29,264
You come to a firm like mine
to avoid trial.
316
00:14:29,308 --> 00:14:31,266
Trials are crapshoots.
317
00:14:31,310 --> 00:14:35,357
Juries are crapshoots.
Deals and pleas are not.
318
00:14:35,401 --> 00:14:39,231
Now, I know
court's where you live
319
00:14:39,274 --> 00:14:42,103
and juries are what made you
who you are,
320
00:14:42,147 --> 00:14:43,626
so I understand
you'd have an exaggerated
321
00:14:43,670 --> 00:14:45,715
sense of comfort there, but...
322
00:14:45,759 --> 00:14:48,109
We're going to trial.
323
00:14:48,153 --> 00:14:51,025
[sighs]
324
00:14:51,069 --> 00:14:53,332
I haven't been inside
a courtroom in seven years,
325
00:14:53,375 --> 00:14:54,899
and I'm damn proud of it.
326
00:14:54,942 --> 00:14:57,031
It's a slow
and irritating process
327
00:14:57,075 --> 00:15:00,121
and a terrible use
of people's time.
328
00:15:00,165 --> 00:15:02,254
My time, anyway.
329
00:15:03,864 --> 00:15:07,128
I'm guessing your regular guy
is in-in the hospital?
330
00:15:07,172 --> 00:15:08,869
On vacation?
Otherwise indisposed?
331
00:15:08,913 --> 00:15:11,132
Something like that.
332
00:15:11,176 --> 00:15:12,655
Okay, I'm gonna do you a favor.
333
00:15:12,699 --> 00:15:15,180
I know you're not a lawyer,
so I'm gonna ask the court
334
00:15:15,223 --> 00:15:16,964
for a one-month continuance
on your behalf.
335
00:15:17,008 --> 00:15:19,662
You know, take the month,
wait for your guy.
336
00:15:21,708 --> 00:15:23,231
Month will get it done, right?
337
00:15:23,275 --> 00:15:24,972
No.
338
00:15:25,016 --> 00:15:28,323
It's not your problem.
I appreciate the offer.
339
00:15:28,367 --> 00:15:29,890
I'll be fine.
340
00:15:33,198 --> 00:15:35,200
[sighs]
341
00:15:37,028 --> 00:15:40,509
Steve. Steven!
342
00:15:40,553 --> 00:15:42,859
Hey.
343
00:15:42,903 --> 00:15:44,687
You know what?
344
00:15:44,731 --> 00:15:47,212
I think you're right.
345
00:15:47,255 --> 00:15:49,344
Let's do everything we
can to avoid a trial.
346
00:15:49,388 --> 00:15:51,999
Wait, so...
347
00:15:52,043 --> 00:15:54,567
so now you're saying you,
you want to do this thing?
348
00:15:57,396 --> 00:15:59,572
I get a good
feeling from you,
349
00:15:59,615 --> 00:16:02,792
and I think we'd
work well together.
350
00:16:02,836 --> 00:16:04,359
Huh.
351
00:16:04,403 --> 00:16:05,534
Yeah, me, too.
352
00:16:05,578 --> 00:16:09,321
Thanks for lunch.
Yeah.
353
00:16:16,719 --> 00:16:19,157
Mr. Valerian,
good afternoon.
354
00:16:19,200 --> 00:16:21,376
You here by yourself?Indeed I am.
355
00:16:21,420 --> 00:16:23,596
No Marissa,
356
00:16:23,639 --> 00:16:26,773
not this time. I wanted a word
with you privately.
357
00:16:26,816 --> 00:16:28,949
Okay. How can I help you?
358
00:16:28,993 --> 00:16:33,127
I know-- you know
my wife had a change of heart
359
00:16:33,171 --> 00:16:36,304
with regards to our plans
for starting a family,
360
00:16:36,348 --> 00:16:39,960
but I wanted to talk with you,
kind of off the record,
361
00:16:40,004 --> 00:16:43,181
about a couple
of things. First,
362
00:16:43,224 --> 00:16:46,184
I would hope you haven't
disposed of her eggs just yet.
363
00:16:46,227 --> 00:16:48,751
No, I don't believe so,
not quite yet.
364
00:16:48,795 --> 00:16:50,579
Well, what I was wondering was,
365
00:16:50,623 --> 00:16:54,322
is there a way I could pay you
to keep them in storage
366
00:16:54,366 --> 00:16:56,933
without my wife
knowing about it?
367
00:16:56,977 --> 00:17:00,676
Why don't you tell me
the second thing?
368
00:17:02,722 --> 00:17:06,508
Surprise, surprise.
I want to freeze my sperm.
369
00:17:06,552 --> 00:17:08,641
I just...
370
00:17:08,684 --> 00:17:11,122
I want to make sure
we have everything we need
371
00:17:11,165 --> 00:17:14,168
in case she changes
her mind again.
372
00:17:14,212 --> 00:17:17,041
Mr. Valerian,
373
00:17:17,084 --> 00:17:21,480
now I need to talk to you
"off the record."
374
00:17:21,523 --> 00:17:23,830
So we'll save the taxpayers
money and the courts time,
375
00:17:23,873 --> 00:17:25,832
and our client'll
come in,
376
00:17:25,875 --> 00:17:28,008
plead guilty to a misdemeanor,
and we'll just
377
00:17:28,052 --> 00:17:30,054
shuffle this off to the
civil courts where it belongs.
378
00:17:30,097 --> 00:17:32,491
Misdemeanor?
379
00:17:32,534 --> 00:17:34,058
Yeah, I was thinking, uh,
reckless endangerment,
380
00:17:34,101 --> 00:17:35,407
but we're totally
open to anything
381
00:17:35,450 --> 00:17:37,235
the district attorney's
office wants to suggest.
382
00:17:37,278 --> 00:17:39,150
And how do you feel
about this, Dr. Bull?
383
00:17:41,195 --> 00:17:44,807
Uh, not sure my feelings
really matter.
384
00:17:44,851 --> 00:17:47,027
Mr. Perry is the lead attorney
on this case.
385
00:17:47,071 --> 00:17:48,333
So you think she's guilty?
386
00:17:48,376 --> 00:17:50,900
Because this feels like
the kind of strategy
387
00:17:50,944 --> 00:17:53,860
one would employ
for a guilty client.
388
00:17:57,168 --> 00:17:59,387
In my opinion, no,
I don't think she's guilty.
389
00:17:59,431 --> 00:18:01,737
She served the man
some drinks, she didn't
390
00:18:01,781 --> 00:18:04,392
buy the bullets,
she didn't load the gun.
391
00:18:04,436 --> 00:18:05,959
Then what are you doing here?
392
00:18:06,002 --> 00:18:08,135
Uh, he's here because I'm here.
393
00:18:08,179 --> 00:18:09,919
Because I genuinely believe
394
00:18:09,963 --> 00:18:12,226
this is the most prudent course
of action.
395
00:18:12,270 --> 00:18:14,881
The girl doesn't deny
she served the man,
396
00:18:14,924 --> 00:18:17,057
so let's cut
to the chase.
397
00:18:17,101 --> 00:18:19,059
We all know
that this is gonna end up
398
00:18:19,103 --> 00:18:20,843
in the insurance company's lap.
399
00:18:20,887 --> 00:18:23,977
It's gonna be about money.
I say let's get to it.
400
00:18:26,022 --> 00:18:28,199
Where is that lawyer
you used to work with?
401
00:18:28,242 --> 00:18:30,592
I always sensed
402
00:18:30,636 --> 00:18:32,464
that fellow had a conscience.
403
00:18:32,507 --> 00:18:33,856
Hey.
WILLIAMS:
Let me lay my cards
404
00:18:33,900 --> 00:18:35,728
on the table.
405
00:18:35,771 --> 00:18:37,425
I have six dead bodies
to answer for,
406
00:18:37,469 --> 00:18:39,558
four grieving families
to answer to,
407
00:18:39,601 --> 00:18:41,386
and I don't think "misdemeanor"
408
00:18:41,429 --> 00:18:43,170
is the answer
they're looking for.
409
00:18:43,214 --> 00:18:44,302
And I don't think money
410
00:18:44,345 --> 00:18:46,478
is what's
on their minds.
411
00:18:46,521 --> 00:18:48,567
Not yet.
412
00:18:48,610 --> 00:18:51,961
So I'm gonna see this thing
through in a court of law.
413
00:18:52,005 --> 00:18:55,095
The charge is still
manslaughter, gentlemen.
414
00:18:56,792 --> 00:18:58,838
Thank you for dropping by.
415
00:19:01,667 --> 00:19:02,668
[elevator bell chimes]
416
00:19:05,584 --> 00:19:08,717
Huh. Well,
who'd have guessed it?
417
00:19:08,761 --> 00:19:12,852
A.D.A. is a true believer,
a holy roller.
418
00:19:12,895 --> 00:19:14,462
Well, you win some,
you lose some.
419
00:19:14,506 --> 00:19:15,942
I'll tell you what,
I'm gonna send
420
00:19:15,985 --> 00:19:18,205
an associate of mine
over to sit with you in court.
421
00:19:18,249 --> 00:19:21,469
Yeah, like I told you before,
musty old wooden rooms
422
00:19:21,513 --> 00:19:25,038
and men and women in robes
banging hammers on tables,
423
00:19:25,081 --> 00:19:26,648
it's not my thing.
424
00:19:26,692 --> 00:19:29,085
And mark my words, you're just
gonna end up in the same place,
425
00:19:29,129 --> 00:19:31,914
sitting around a big conference
room table talking about money.
426
00:19:31,958 --> 00:19:33,742
You're fired.
427
00:19:33,786 --> 00:19:35,004
Beg your pardon?[elevator bell chimes]
428
00:19:35,048 --> 00:19:36,876

When are you coming home, Daddy?
431
00:19:51,586 --> 00:19:53,458
When I solve this problem.

00:19:53,501 --> 00:19:55,242
Jason... [sighs]
433
00:19:55,286 --> 00:19:57,810
why don't you just
let me call my brother?
434
00:19:57,853 --> 00:20:01,161
He'll understand.
You need a continuance.
435
00:20:01,205 --> 00:20:02,815
Enough time
to find another lawyer.
436
00:20:02,858 --> 00:20:05,731
I'm sure he'd be willing to call
the judge and get that for you.
437
00:20:05,774 --> 00:20:08,690
No, please don't.[sighs]
438
00:20:08,734 --> 00:20:10,997
Well, then
why don't youcall him?
439
00:20:11,040 --> 00:20:11,998
And say what?
440
00:20:12,041 --> 00:20:14,870
[knock at door]Hold on a sec.
441
00:20:14,914 --> 00:20:18,526
I have called every lawyer
we have ever worked with.
442
00:20:18,570 --> 00:20:21,007
It's 20 after 9:00.
Nobody's picking up.
443
00:20:21,050 --> 00:20:23,879
Hmm. I got to figure this out.
444
00:20:23,923 --> 00:20:28,275
Okay. I'll just find
some other guy to rub my feet.
445
00:20:28,319 --> 00:20:30,712
You do that.
446
00:20:30,756 --> 00:20:32,192
What are you gonna do?
447
00:20:32,236 --> 00:20:34,586
[sighs]
448
00:20:34,629 --> 00:20:36,718
I'm gonna show up
in court tomorrow like a man,
449
00:20:36,762 --> 00:20:38,590
and when the judge asks
where my lawyer is,
450
00:20:38,633 --> 00:20:40,069
I'm gonna cry like a baby
451
00:20:40,113 --> 00:20:42,594
and hope she and my client
take pity on me.
452
00:20:45,945 --> 00:20:50,079
Now, out of my way.
I got some feet to rub.

Hello, you've reached

I'm sorry.

I'm so damn sorry,
you have no idea.
461
00:21:20,458 --> 00:21:21,720
Hey, sorry I'm late.
462
00:21:21,763 --> 00:21:23,852
There was an accident
on West Street.
463
00:21:23,896 --> 00:21:25,854
BAILIFF:
All rise.
464
00:21:25,898 --> 00:21:28,161
Uh, the thing is,
465
00:21:28,204 --> 00:21:30,163
the attorneys and I
last night had a...
466
00:21:30,206 --> 00:21:31,599
a difference of opinion,
and we, uh...
467
00:21:31,643 --> 00:21:33,166
JUDGE:
Good morning, counsel.
468
00:21:33,209 --> 00:21:35,647
Are we ready to proceed
with voir dire?
469
00:21:35,690 --> 00:21:37,039
We certainly are,
Your Honor.
470
00:21:37,083 --> 00:21:39,128
JUDGE:
And counsel
for the defense?
471
00:21:39,172 --> 00:21:40,608
BENNY:
We certainly are, Your Honor.

473
00:21:47,398 --> 00:21:54,143
♪ Oh...
474
00:21:54,187 --> 00:22:00,193
♪ Ah...
475
00:22:08,636 --> 00:22:10,812
Thank you.
476
00:22:10,856 --> 00:22:12,901
For what?
477
00:22:12,945 --> 00:22:15,121
For getting through
voir dire?
478
00:22:15,164 --> 00:22:18,472
You wrote the questions,
I just asked them.
479
00:22:18,516 --> 00:22:20,822
How do you feel
about the jury?
480
00:22:23,172 --> 00:22:25,479
I think we did
the best we could.
481
00:22:25,523 --> 00:22:29,440
All we can do is appeal
to their sense
482
00:22:29,483 --> 00:22:31,398
of fair play.Mm.
483
00:22:31,442 --> 00:22:33,008
I mean, we wouldn't
even be here if...
484
00:22:33,052 --> 00:22:36,360
that bar hadn't burned down
and the owner hadn't fled town.
485
00:22:36,403 --> 00:22:37,926
If there were somebody else
to go after.
486
00:22:37,970 --> 00:22:41,103
If the police hadn't
shot the killer.
487
00:22:41,147 --> 00:22:44,890
Not much to hang a defense on.
488
00:22:44,933 --> 00:22:46,152
So, I've lined up
the cab driver.
489
00:22:46,195 --> 00:22:47,980
He's all set to talk
about how Patricia
490
00:22:48,023 --> 00:22:49,416
followed her customer home
and wouldn't leave
491
00:22:49,460 --> 00:22:50,809
till he was safely in the house.
492
00:22:50,852 --> 00:22:51,984
CHUNK:
Yeah, he's scheduled
to come in tomorrow
493
00:22:52,027 --> 00:22:53,594
so he and I can go
over his testimony.
494
00:22:53,638 --> 00:22:55,161
Excellent.Thanks, Chunk.
495
00:22:55,204 --> 00:22:57,990
And by going back and combing
through the newspaper,
496
00:22:58,033 --> 00:22:59,905
television, and Web
coverage of the shooting,
497
00:22:59,948 --> 00:23:02,342
I was able to track down
witnesses from the bar
498
00:23:02,386 --> 00:23:05,432
who overheard the conversation
between Patricia and the owner.
499
00:23:05,476 --> 00:23:07,434
How she made it
very clear
500
00:23:07,478 --> 00:23:09,697
she didn't want to serve
any more drinks to Hobbs,
501
00:23:09,741 --> 00:23:11,482
but he pretty much
ordered her to do it.
502
00:23:11,525 --> 00:23:13,788
Well, there you go.
Jurors have to respond to that.
503
00:23:13,832 --> 00:23:15,486
We can only hope.You know,
504
00:23:15,529 --> 00:23:17,357
I've actually been
thinking about
505
00:23:17,401 --> 00:23:18,880
another way to come
at this thing.
506
00:23:21,187 --> 00:23:22,449
What are you talking about?
507
00:23:22,493 --> 00:23:25,713
Well, respectfully...
508
00:23:25,757 --> 00:23:27,454
I've been thinking
about it all day,
509
00:23:27,498 --> 00:23:30,544
and I have an idea
for a narrative.
510
00:23:30,588 --> 00:23:32,503
A thought on a way
to present this case.
511
00:23:32,546 --> 00:23:35,506
From a legal standpoint.
512
00:23:35,549 --> 00:23:39,379
Oh... you do?
513
00:23:40,511 --> 00:23:42,034
Yeah.
514
00:23:42,077 --> 00:23:45,080
Why are you acting
so surprised?
515
00:23:45,124 --> 00:23:47,256
Am I acting surprised?
516
00:23:48,910 --> 00:23:50,521
I guess I am.
Okay.
517
00:23:50,564 --> 00:23:53,654
I am. It's just normally
you leave the...
518
00:23:53,698 --> 00:23:57,049
narrative strategy to me.
519
00:23:57,092 --> 00:24:00,269
Well, to be honest,
a lot of the times,
520
00:24:00,313 --> 00:24:01,967
I have ideas of my own.
521
00:24:02,010 --> 00:24:04,360
I just don't present 'em to you.
522
00:24:04,404 --> 00:24:05,579
And why is that?
523
00:24:05,623 --> 00:24:07,973
I guess I sort of get the sense
524
00:24:08,016 --> 00:24:09,322
like they might not be welcome.
525
00:24:09,365 --> 00:24:12,717
Well, respectfully back,
526
00:24:12,760 --> 00:24:14,632
that is ridiculous.
527
00:24:14,675 --> 00:24:17,286
Really?
Yeah.
Absolutely.
528
00:24:17,330 --> 00:24:18,723
What is your idea?
529
00:24:18,766 --> 00:24:20,464
What is your narrative?
What's your strategy?
530
00:24:20,507 --> 00:24:21,595
Causation.
531
00:24:21,639 --> 00:24:24,685
Causation.Causation.
532
00:24:24,729 --> 00:24:27,340
Personally, I don't like
going into a trial
533
00:24:27,383 --> 00:24:29,298
where I have to count
on the possibility
534
00:24:29,342 --> 00:24:31,387
that the jurors
might realize
535
00:24:31,431 --> 00:24:33,215
it's not fair to
blame our client.
536
00:24:33,259 --> 00:24:35,348
I'd prefer to prove
537
00:24:35,391 --> 00:24:37,089
that one thing had nothing
to do with the other.
538
00:24:37,132 --> 00:24:39,483
That the killer
drinking those drinks
539
00:24:39,526 --> 00:24:41,876
did not cause him to
bust into that house
540
00:24:41,920 --> 00:24:43,008
and kill his estranged wife
541
00:24:43,051 --> 00:24:45,010
and all those people,
that there was...
542
00:24:45,053 --> 00:24:46,446
no causation.
543
00:24:46,490 --> 00:24:48,753
And therefore, our client
bears no responsibility.
544
00:24:48,796 --> 00:24:50,711
You think you can prove that?
545
00:24:50,755 --> 00:24:52,278
Respectfully, I do.
546
00:24:52,321 --> 00:24:54,672
With the team's
help, of course.
547
00:24:56,325 --> 00:24:59,981
You just don't
understand juries.
548
00:25:00,025 --> 00:25:01,461
Oh?
549
00:25:01,505 --> 00:25:03,637
I don't understand
550
00:25:03,681 --> 00:25:06,205
juries, huh?
I see.
551
00:25:06,248 --> 00:25:08,468
Spent my whole
adult life in court,
552
00:25:08,512 --> 00:25:10,078
but that counts
for nothing,
553
00:25:10,122 --> 00:25:11,776
says the jury whisperer.
Okay,
554
00:25:11,819 --> 00:25:14,343
I promise you every single
person in that jury box
555
00:25:14,387 --> 00:25:16,345
at some point in their lives
has had a run-in
556
00:25:16,389 --> 00:25:17,695
with someone who drank too much,
557
00:25:17,738 --> 00:25:19,610
and I guarantee you
they felt threatened.
558
00:25:19,653 --> 00:25:22,134
I don't deny that, but
did they blame the person
559
00:25:22,177 --> 00:25:25,267
who poured the drink or
the person who drank it?
560
00:25:26,965 --> 00:25:28,575
MARISSA:
I-I know it might not
561
00:25:28,619 --> 00:25:32,100
be my place to say...
but I think Benny
562
00:25:32,144 --> 00:25:33,580
is onto something.
563
00:25:33,624 --> 00:25:35,277
You're right,
it's not your place.
564
00:25:35,321 --> 00:25:37,105
Well, if she's out of line, then
I'm definitely looking for work,
565
00:25:37,149 --> 00:25:40,195
because what he's talking
about sounds like...
566
00:25:40,239 --> 00:25:42,284
a real defense.
567
00:25:42,328 --> 00:25:44,722
And what I said?
568
00:25:45,766 --> 00:25:49,074
It sounds like
a point of view.
569
00:25:49,117 --> 00:25:51,946
An-And, look,
you may be right,
570
00:25:51,990 --> 00:25:54,470
but when the smoke clears,
571
00:25:54,514 --> 00:25:56,081
no matter where
this thing ends up,
572
00:25:56,124 --> 00:26:00,085
we all want to feel like we
actually defended our client,
573
00:26:00,128 --> 00:26:02,827
and not stand around and let
574
00:26:02,870 --> 00:26:07,396
whatever you're convinced is
gonna happen just... happen.
575
00:26:07,440 --> 00:26:09,398
Hmm.
576
00:26:14,708 --> 00:26:17,581
Causation.
577
00:26:18,799 --> 00:26:23,021
Rhymes with "exoneration."
578
00:26:23,064 --> 00:26:24,718
Let's hope it works.
579
00:26:29,331 --> 00:26:32,291
Ladies and gentlemen
of the jury,
580
00:26:32,334 --> 00:26:35,947
the law is very clear
and straightforward
581
00:26:35,990 --> 00:26:38,210
about situations like these.
582
00:26:38,253 --> 00:26:40,995
It is virtually irrefutable
that the defendant,
583
00:26:41,039 --> 00:26:43,824
through her actions,
through her willingness
584
00:26:43,868 --> 00:26:46,697
to serve an apparently
already inebriated man
585
00:26:46,740 --> 00:26:49,830
more alcohol, set in motion
a series of events
586
00:26:49,874 --> 00:26:54,139
that led to all this bloodshed
and heartache.
587
00:26:54,182 --> 00:26:58,404
And the law has a name for that.
588
00:26:58,447 --> 00:27:02,495
Involuntary manslaughter.
589
00:27:02,538 --> 00:27:05,846
So, even though someone doesn't
actually pull the trigger,
590
00:27:05,890 --> 00:27:09,023
she must still be
held responsible
591
00:27:09,067 --> 00:27:11,591
for all that she did
that contributed
592
00:27:11,635 --> 00:27:13,811
to this horrific tragedy.
593
00:27:13,854 --> 00:27:16,291
BENNY:
On New Year's Eve,
594
00:27:16,335 --> 00:27:20,034
the day of these
unforgivable killings,
595
00:27:20,078 --> 00:27:23,603
Eugene Hobbs had breakfast
at the Crosstown Diner.
596
00:27:25,474 --> 00:27:28,521
Had they not served him,
isn't it possible
597
00:27:28,564 --> 00:27:30,871
that he might not have
had the energy
598
00:27:30,915 --> 00:27:34,832
to commit his monstrous crime
later that day?
599
00:27:34,875 --> 00:27:36,529
And yet, where's the waiter
that brought him
600
00:27:36,572 --> 00:27:38,705
his bacon and eggs?
601
00:27:38,749 --> 00:27:40,968
Why isn't he here...
602
00:27:41,012 --> 00:27:42,535
sitting beside my client,
603
00:27:42,578 --> 00:27:44,755
shouldering his portion
of the responsibility?
604
00:27:44,798 --> 00:27:48,759
Or the gas station
that sold him the gas
605
00:27:48,802 --> 00:27:51,022
that made it possible
for him to drive
606
00:27:51,065 --> 00:27:54,025
to his estranged wife's home.
607
00:27:54,068 --> 00:27:57,811
Or the company that sold him
the winter coat he was wearing
608
00:27:57,855 --> 00:28:00,596
that made it bearable for him
to go out in the cold
609
00:28:00,640 --> 00:28:03,817
to do what he did.
610
00:28:05,253 --> 00:28:08,387
I mention all this
because the prosecution,
611
00:28:08,430 --> 00:28:10,084
in explaining his case
against my client,
612
00:28:10,128 --> 00:28:11,869
left out one vital element.
613
00:28:11,912 --> 00:28:14,785
That's causation.
614
00:28:14,828 --> 00:28:15,829
It's causation.
615
00:28:15,873 --> 00:28:18,876
Th-That's really
the question here.
616
00:28:18,919 --> 00:28:22,575
Did what my client do
actually cause these killings?
617
00:28:22,618 --> 00:28:24,925
Let me put it another way.
618
00:28:24,969 --> 00:28:26,840
Had my client not served
Mr. Hobbs,
619
00:28:26,884 --> 00:28:29,930
is it reasonable to suppose
that he would not have gone
620
00:28:29,974 --> 00:28:32,759
to his estranged wife's home
and done what he did?
621
00:28:34,456 --> 00:28:35,806
Ladies and gentlemen,
as I will demonstrate
622
00:28:35,849 --> 00:28:40,071
during this trial,
the facts do not support that.
623
00:28:40,114 --> 00:28:42,247
One did not cause the other.
624
00:28:42,290 --> 00:28:43,770
And, folks,
if I can prove to you
625
00:28:43,814 --> 00:28:45,511
that one did not
cause the other,
626
00:28:45,554 --> 00:28:49,950
then you have no choice but
to find my client not guilty.
627
00:28:49,994 --> 00:28:51,865
Thank you.
628
00:28:54,346 --> 00:28:56,478
Tell me what you see.
629
00:28:56,522 --> 00:28:58,437
MARISSA [over earbud]:
I'll tell you what I don't see.
630
00:28:58,480 --> 00:29:01,135
I don't see any takers.
631
00:29:01,179 --> 00:29:03,921
BULL:
Well, he's telling them there
may not be a bogeyman.
632
00:29:03,964 --> 00:29:05,792
Or woman.
633
00:29:05,836 --> 00:29:08,752
That there may not be a living
and breathing human being
634
00:29:08,795 --> 00:29:11,798
left to punish, that they
may not have someone
635
00:29:11,842 --> 00:29:13,713
that's still alive
left to blame.
636
00:29:13,757 --> 00:29:18,674
And that's not fun to hear,
so let's give it some time.
637
00:29:18,718 --> 00:29:20,807
So, as a city medical
examiner, Dr. Ferrel,
638
00:29:20,851 --> 00:29:23,810
you performed autopsies
not just on the five victims
639
00:29:23,854 --> 00:29:26,030
but on the shooter as well.I did.
640
00:29:26,073 --> 00:29:28,554
And can you tell us about the
shooter's blood alcohol level?
641
00:29:28,597 --> 00:29:30,904
He was pretty close to a .23.
642
00:29:30,948 --> 00:29:32,079
And the legal limit is?
643
00:29:32,123 --> 00:29:33,124
.08.
644
00:29:33,167 --> 00:29:37,084
So, almost three times
645
00:29:37,128 --> 00:29:38,520
the legal limit.
646
00:29:38,564 --> 00:29:40,566
That is correct.
647
00:29:40,609 --> 00:29:42,829
I have nothing further
for this witness
648
00:29:42,873 --> 00:29:45,832
at this time.
649
00:29:45,876 --> 00:29:50,097
Dr. Ferrel, you supervised
all of the autopsies
650
00:29:50,141 --> 00:29:53,274
for all the victims,
as well as the shooter?
651
00:29:53,318 --> 00:29:54,754
I did.
652
00:29:54,798 --> 00:29:57,322
And how many shots were actually
fired by the shooter?
653
00:29:57,365 --> 00:29:58,627
Five.
654
00:29:58,671 --> 00:29:59,933
And there were how many victims?
655
00:29:59,977 --> 00:30:00,978
Not including
the gunman himself.
656
00:30:01,021 --> 00:30:02,457
Five.
657
00:30:02,501 --> 00:30:06,897
Wow. The shooter didn't waste
a single shot.
658
00:30:06,940 --> 00:30:09,900
Doesn't sound like he was
all that impaired to me.
659
00:30:09,943 --> 00:30:12,554
Maybe just drunk enough
to actually go through with it.
660
00:30:12,598 --> 00:30:15,557
Ah, I see, I see.
661
00:30:15,601 --> 00:30:18,865
So you are suggesting
that perhaps the alcohol
662
00:30:18,909 --> 00:30:21,128
gave him the courage
to commit these terrible crimes?
663
00:30:21,172 --> 00:30:23,304
Okay, and-and
664
00:30:23,348 --> 00:30:26,177
what in your autopsy findings
led you to that?
665
00:30:26,220 --> 00:30:28,483
Nothing.
It's just a hunch.
666
00:30:28,527 --> 00:30:30,529
Just a hunch.
667
00:30:32,096 --> 00:30:35,621
Okay, let's talk science.
668
00:30:35,664 --> 00:30:36,840
Let's talk statistics.
669
00:30:36,883 --> 00:30:38,450
Would it surprise you to know
670
00:30:38,493 --> 00:30:40,713
that the Center
for Disease Control
671
00:30:40,756 --> 00:30:42,497
did a study of mass shootings
in America?
672
00:30:42,541 --> 00:30:45,152
Mass shootings being
any shooting in a single place
673
00:30:45,196 --> 00:30:48,939
in which four or more people
are shot dead at the same time.
674
00:30:48,982 --> 00:30:51,158
And they discovered,
unlike domestic,
675
00:30:51,202 --> 00:30:53,508
single-victim shootings,
which tend to be
676
00:30:53,552 --> 00:30:55,946
spontaneous acts of passion,
677
00:30:55,989 --> 00:31:00,820
mass shootings almost
never involve alcohol or drugs.
678
00:31:00,864 --> 00:31:03,127
And they found this
puzzling,
679
00:31:03,170 --> 00:31:04,693
so they interviewed
the shooters,
680
00:31:04,737 --> 00:31:05,912
and you know what
they discovered?
681
00:31:05,956 --> 00:31:08,610
Shooting a lot of people
is hard.
682
00:31:08,654 --> 00:31:11,222
It takes planning,
it takes focus,
683
00:31:11,265 --> 00:31:14,268
and apparently that's why,
by and large,
684
00:31:14,312 --> 00:31:18,098
no alcohol or drugs figured
into these shootings.
685
00:31:18,142 --> 00:31:20,666
And when they did,
686
00:31:20,709 --> 00:31:23,147
it had nothing to do
with the killings themselves.
687
00:31:23,190 --> 00:31:25,889
It was usually because
the shooter had been drinking
688
00:31:25,932 --> 00:31:30,067
to celebrate an anniversary
or birthday.
689
00:31:30,110 --> 00:31:32,156
Or maybe even the New Year.
690
00:31:32,199 --> 00:31:34,332
Objection.
Is Mr. Colón testifying,
691
00:31:34,375 --> 00:31:35,376
or is he gonna ask
the witness a question?
692
00:31:35,420 --> 00:31:37,030
I'm sorry, Your Honor.
693
00:31:37,074 --> 00:31:40,381
Sometimes I get excited
and I just start talking.
694
00:31:40,425 --> 00:31:41,992
Objection sustained.
695
00:31:42,035 --> 00:31:44,429
The jury will disregard
counsel's comment.
696
00:31:46,518 --> 00:31:50,261
Well, maybe they will,
maybe they won't.
697
00:31:51,871 --> 00:31:56,136
Your brother was a real
superstar today.
698
00:31:56,180 --> 00:32:00,488
Prosecution put on
a full-court press.
699
00:32:02,534 --> 00:32:06,320
Of course, tomorrow
we put on our case.
700
00:32:06,364 --> 00:32:08,844
And don't tell Benny,
but I for one
701
00:32:08,888 --> 00:32:11,456
am gonna bring an extra
pair of underwear.
702
00:32:11,499 --> 00:32:13,284
I have a feeling
it's gonna get ugly.
703
00:32:15,286 --> 00:32:18,767
You don't sound optimistic.
704
00:32:18,811 --> 00:32:21,422
I didn't say I wasn't rooting
for your brother.
705
00:32:21,466 --> 00:32:24,077
It's just... [sighs]
706
00:32:24,121 --> 00:32:26,210
people need someone to pay,
707
00:32:26,253 --> 00:32:29,082
even if it's just
Mrs. O'Leary's cow.
708
00:32:32,042 --> 00:32:34,479
Is it just juries
that you've lost faith in,
709
00:32:34,522 --> 00:32:38,352
or... all of humanity?
710
00:32:38,396 --> 00:32:39,701
It's everyone.
711
00:32:39,745 --> 00:32:41,616
Pretty much the whole species.
712
00:32:41,660 --> 00:32:45,316
Then...
713
00:32:45,359 --> 00:32:47,883
why are we having this baby?
714
00:32:47,927 --> 00:32:50,756
Well, it's like
I told your brother,
715
00:32:50,799 --> 00:32:52,627
sometimes things happen.
716
00:32:52,671 --> 00:32:53,977
They just do.
717
00:32:55,021 --> 00:32:57,458
I didn't ask you how,
718
00:32:57,502 --> 00:32:58,982
I asked you why.
719
00:33:00,026 --> 00:33:03,290
Maybe, way down deep...
720
00:33:03,334 --> 00:33:05,640
I'm hoping I'm wrong.
721
00:33:05,684 --> 00:33:07,599
BENNY:
So, how long
did you know the shooter?
722
00:33:07,642 --> 00:33:10,036
How long were you friends
with the shooter?
723
00:33:10,080 --> 00:33:11,429
Since high school.
724
00:33:11,472 --> 00:33:14,562
So y-you were around
when he met his estranged wife?
725
00:33:14,606 --> 00:33:17,261
When they started dating?
When they got engaged?
726
00:33:17,304 --> 00:33:21,265
Yup. He couldn't believe it.
He thought he'd won the lotto.
727
00:33:21,308 --> 00:33:22,744
So they were young and in love?
728
00:33:22,788 --> 00:33:26,966
Until they weren't.
I remember him telling me,
729
00:33:27,010 --> 00:33:29,969
he said that one day
everything just changed,
730
00:33:30,013 --> 00:33:31,840
that she wouldn't hold his hand,
731
00:33:31,884 --> 00:33:34,321
she wouldn't let him kiss her,
wouldn't let him touch her,
732
00:33:34,365 --> 00:33:36,410
didn't want to listen
to anything he had to say.
733
00:33:36,454 --> 00:33:38,021
And how did he react to that?
734
00:33:38,064 --> 00:33:40,197
Not well.
735
00:33:40,240 --> 00:33:44,070
For a while he was just
depressed, and then he got mad.
736
00:33:44,114 --> 00:33:46,986
And did he ever discuss
seeking some kind of revenge?
737
00:33:47,030 --> 00:33:48,422
Yes.
738
00:33:48,466 --> 00:33:50,424
And did this revenge
involve guns?
739
00:33:50,468 --> 00:33:52,078
Yes.
740
00:33:52,122 --> 00:33:53,558
BENNY:
And when did these
conversations start?
741
00:33:53,601 --> 00:33:57,518
About three months
before the killings.
742
00:33:57,562 --> 00:33:59,825
Three months.
743
00:33:59,868 --> 00:34:01,044
Thank you.
744
00:34:01,087 --> 00:34:02,915
No further questions,
Your Honor.
745
00:34:04,917 --> 00:34:07,224
WILLIAMS:
So your testimony is,
746
00:34:07,267 --> 00:34:10,096
your best friend tells you
he wants to shoot his wife,
747
00:34:10,140 --> 00:34:11,358
and you didn't call the police?
748
00:34:11,402 --> 00:34:13,926
You didn't call
his wife?
749
00:34:13,969 --> 00:34:15,145
No.
750
00:34:15,188 --> 00:34:16,581
May I ask why not?
751
00:34:18,148 --> 00:34:20,106
Honestly?
752
00:34:20,150 --> 00:34:22,369
I thought he was just
trying to blow off some steam.
753
00:34:22,413 --> 00:34:24,937
I mean, come on.
754
00:34:24,980 --> 00:34:26,765
Who kills their wife?
755
00:34:26,808 --> 00:34:28,897
Your best friend did.
756
00:34:30,551 --> 00:34:32,901
Your best friend did.
757
00:34:36,470 --> 00:34:37,732
BENNY:
So, is that the gun
758
00:34:37,776 --> 00:34:39,212
you sold the shooter?
759
00:34:39,256 --> 00:34:41,040
Certainly the same
make and model.
760
00:34:41,084 --> 00:34:42,563
And when did the sale
take place?
761
00:34:42,607 --> 00:34:45,131
Uh... right around Thanksgiving.
762
00:34:45,175 --> 00:34:47,090
About five weeks
before the killings?
763
00:34:47,133 --> 00:34:49,179
Yes, sir.
764
00:34:49,222 --> 00:34:52,965
Do you have any knowledge
regarding whether the shooter
765
00:34:53,008 --> 00:34:55,924
had ever fired a gun
prior to the shootings?
766
00:34:55,968 --> 00:34:58,927
He mentioned to me
that he hadn't.
767
00:34:58,971 --> 00:35:01,147
Wanted to know if I could
point him towards a range
768
00:35:01,191 --> 00:35:03,410
where he could practice,
get comfortable with it.
769
00:35:03,454 --> 00:35:07,153
And how often would the shooter
bring his gun to your range?
770
00:35:07,197 --> 00:35:08,372
Three or four times a week.
771
00:35:08,415 --> 00:35:10,417
Three or four times a week.
772
00:35:10,461 --> 00:35:12,985
Every week in the weeks
leading up to the shooting?
773
00:35:13,028 --> 00:35:15,161
Uh-huh. Even Christmas.
774
00:35:15,205 --> 00:35:17,685
We got him signing in
and we've got him on video.
775
00:35:19,513 --> 00:35:20,949
Now, your sister
and her husband died
776
00:35:20,993 --> 00:35:22,168
on the night of the massacre.
777
00:35:22,212 --> 00:35:24,475
Yes. They were
all great friends.
778
00:35:24,518 --> 00:35:27,869
My sister and her husband,
another friend and her husband,
779
00:35:27,913 --> 00:35:29,132
and of course...
780
00:35:29,175 --> 00:35:30,307
The shooter's estranged wife.
781
00:35:32,744 --> 00:35:34,485
Now, this New Year's Eve party,
782
00:35:34,528 --> 00:35:36,443
this is something
they did every year?
783
00:35:36,487 --> 00:35:38,619
Every year since
the end of high school.
784
00:35:38,663 --> 00:35:40,273
It was just the three couples,
785
00:35:40,317 --> 00:35:42,232
except this year
it was two and a half.
786
00:35:42,275 --> 00:35:44,364
Because the shooter
wasn't invited.
No.
787
00:35:44,408 --> 00:35:45,539
But he knew about it.
788
00:35:45,583 --> 00:35:48,934
Like I said,
it happened every year.
789
00:35:48,977 --> 00:35:52,459
And I'm sure
it hurt his feelings,
790
00:35:52,503 --> 00:35:54,505
along with everything else
that was going on.
791
00:35:54,548 --> 00:35:57,464
So you don't think
it was an accident
792
00:35:57,508 --> 00:35:59,336
that he chose
this particular night
793
00:35:59,379 --> 00:36:01,599
to go back home with a firearm?
794
00:36:01,642 --> 00:36:04,167
No. He knew
exactly what to expect
795
00:36:04,210 --> 00:36:05,385
when he walked through the door.
796
00:36:06,691 --> 00:36:08,606
BENNY:
Thank you, Ms. Parker.
797
00:36:09,911 --> 00:36:13,350
Oh, uh, one
last question.
798
00:36:13,393 --> 00:36:15,569
How well did you
know the shooter?
799
00:36:15,613 --> 00:36:17,180
Pretty well.
800
00:36:17,223 --> 00:36:19,965
Since the end of high school,
like the rest of them. Why?
801
00:36:21,009 --> 00:36:23,098
And...
802
00:36:23,142 --> 00:36:25,013
did you know him
to be a drinker?
803
00:36:25,057 --> 00:36:28,321
Yeah. Sure. Gene could drink
with the best of them.
804
00:36:28,365 --> 00:36:31,194
So the idea
that he would have to drink
805
00:36:31,237 --> 00:36:33,674
to summon up the courage
to do something...?
806
00:36:33,718 --> 00:36:35,676
Based on my experience?
807
00:36:35,720 --> 00:36:38,592
Gene would drink to drink.
808
00:36:38,636 --> 00:36:40,290
[gallery murmuring]
809
00:36:43,554 --> 00:36:45,512
Thanks again, Ms. Parker.
810
00:36:45,556 --> 00:36:47,427
Marissa?
811
00:36:47,471 --> 00:36:50,865
I've only got
two little sprouts on my end.
812
00:36:50,909 --> 00:36:52,998
Okay, that's a beginning.
813
00:36:53,041 --> 00:36:56,654
Let's see what
closing arguments bring.
814
00:36:56,697 --> 00:37:00,266
So he came up with the plan
three months before it happened,
815
00:37:00,310 --> 00:37:04,052
bought the gun about six
weeks before it happened,
816
00:37:04,096 --> 00:37:07,534
started practicing
five weeks before the big day,
817
00:37:07,578 --> 00:37:11,886
and drank every time
he had the money and the time.
818
00:37:11,930 --> 00:37:14,585
So how does my client
fit into all this?
819
00:37:15,629 --> 00:37:18,110
From everything I can tell,
she doesn't.
820
00:37:19,459 --> 00:37:23,289
Now, uh, a guy I work with,
821
00:37:23,333 --> 00:37:26,988
a guy I really, um, respect...
822
00:37:28,033 --> 00:37:30,253
...we got into
this thing at work.
823
00:37:31,297 --> 00:37:33,821
I was in the middle
of a tough time.
824
00:37:33,865 --> 00:37:38,348
My dad had just died,
my sister's marriage fell apart,
825
00:37:38,391 --> 00:37:39,697
bunch of other things.
826
00:37:39,740 --> 00:37:41,351
Some had to do with him,
some didn't.
827
00:37:41,394 --> 00:37:43,396
Anyway,
828
00:37:43,440 --> 00:37:47,226
I got really angry
with this guy.
829
00:37:48,271 --> 00:37:50,925
And somewhere deep down inside,
830
00:37:50,969 --> 00:37:53,885
without really
thinking about it,
831
00:37:53,928 --> 00:37:55,930
I decided to blame
it all on him.
832
00:37:58,716 --> 00:38:00,239
Now, eventually,
we-we patched it up,
833
00:38:00,283 --> 00:38:03,286
and I remember at one point
him saying to me,
834
00:38:03,329 --> 00:38:04,765
"I know you're hurt.
835
00:38:04,809 --> 00:38:07,507
"I know you're looking
for someone to blame,
836
00:38:07,551 --> 00:38:10,118
"someone to unload
all that hurt on,
837
00:38:10,162 --> 00:38:13,470
"but, you know, sometimes
838
00:38:13,513 --> 00:38:16,647
things just happen.
They just do."
839
00:38:18,301 --> 00:38:20,259
Ladies and gentlemen
of the jury,
840
00:38:20,303 --> 00:38:25,046
I think Eugene Hobbs made
a decision to do something,
841
00:38:25,090 --> 00:38:28,006
and whether or not my client
served him those drinks,
842
00:38:28,049 --> 00:38:30,487
he was going to do it.
843
00:38:30,530 --> 00:38:34,229
Because, you know, sometimes
844
00:38:34,273 --> 00:38:36,362
things just happen.
845
00:38:36,406 --> 00:38:38,408
They just do.
846
00:38:40,758 --> 00:38:42,412
BULL [over earbud]:
So, where does that leave us?
847
00:38:42,455 --> 00:38:45,371
I am staring at a perfect mix
of red and green.
848
00:38:45,415 --> 00:38:48,461
Six and six.Mm.
849
00:38:48,505 --> 00:38:51,812
What did she say?
850
00:38:51,856 --> 00:38:53,640
Six, six.
851
00:38:53,684 --> 00:38:55,468
Split right down
the middle.
852
00:38:55,512 --> 00:38:58,123
Well, that sounds
pretty good, right?
853
00:38:59,167 --> 00:39:02,214
Yes and no.
854
00:39:03,911 --> 00:39:06,392
Either side needs
a unanimous verdict to prevail.
855
00:39:06,436 --> 00:39:09,003
And what happens
if it's just a standoff?
856
00:39:09,047 --> 00:39:12,093
We get to do this
all over again,
857
00:39:12,137 --> 00:39:15,140
and your life stays on hold
for another year or so.
858
00:39:20,711 --> 00:39:22,974
[elevator bell chimes]
859
00:39:27,065 --> 00:39:28,196
Anything?
860
00:39:28,240 --> 00:39:30,677
A call or text?
861
00:39:30,721 --> 00:39:32,418
Anything from the courthouse?
862
00:39:32,462 --> 00:39:35,682
I'm afraid the silence
has been deafening.
863
00:39:35,726 --> 00:39:37,858
[sighs]
864
00:39:43,429 --> 00:39:45,562
[knocking on door] Entrez vous.
865
00:39:45,605 --> 00:39:48,260
Hey.
866
00:39:48,303 --> 00:39:49,740
What do you hear?
867
00:39:49,783 --> 00:39:51,524
Nothing.
868
00:39:51,568 --> 00:39:53,570
Oh, Patricia.
869
00:39:55,136 --> 00:39:57,095
That poor girl.
870
00:39:57,138 --> 00:39:59,619
She must be going
out of her mind.
871
00:40:02,317 --> 00:40:04,319
I'm sorry, Bull.
872
00:40:05,886 --> 00:40:07,888
Sorry I got you
into this thing.
873
00:40:07,932 --> 00:40:11,065
I'm sorry I didn't get it
past the goal line.
874
00:40:11,109 --> 00:40:13,546
I'm sorry
I didn't bring it home.
875
00:40:16,114 --> 00:40:18,029
Maybe you're right.
876
00:40:18,072 --> 00:40:22,120
Maybe I just
don't understand juries.
877
00:40:23,730 --> 00:40:26,951
Oh, Benny.
878
00:40:26,994 --> 00:40:29,780
I was wrong.
879
00:40:29,823 --> 00:40:33,218
I've been wrong
about everything.
880
00:40:33,261 --> 00:40:36,917
Watching you in court,
I turned green.
881
00:40:39,790 --> 00:40:41,400
People are
my business.
882
00:40:41,444 --> 00:40:45,752
I'm supposed to know what they
think before they even think it.
883
00:40:45,796 --> 00:40:48,929
And I got to tell you,
most of the time lately...
884
00:40:48,973 --> 00:40:51,932
[sighs] the world
seems so crazy.
885
00:40:51,976 --> 00:40:56,154
People seem
so crazy to me.
886
00:40:56,197 --> 00:40:59,026
Makes me terrified
for the world
887
00:40:59,070 --> 00:41:02,334
my kid is gonna
grow up in.
888
00:41:04,641 --> 00:41:07,513
How long you think
they're gonna make us wait?
889
00:41:07,557 --> 00:41:09,254
The jury?
890
00:41:09,297 --> 00:41:13,650
As long as it takes,
I'm afraid.
891
00:41:16,827 --> 00:41:19,307
YOUNG MAN: So, wait, that's
your big New Year's Eve story?
892
00:41:19,351 --> 00:41:22,876
That's how it ends?
It can't end like that.
893
00:41:22,920 --> 00:41:25,792
I mean, did the jury finally
come back with a verdict?
894
00:41:25,836 --> 00:41:27,315
Not really.
895
00:41:27,359 --> 00:41:30,841
After 13 days,
they just kind of gave up.
896
00:41:30,884 --> 00:41:33,191
Told the court they were
hopelessly deadlocked.
897
00:41:33,234 --> 00:41:37,021
And then they had to do it
all over again?
No.
898
00:41:37,064 --> 00:41:39,676
The district attorney
dropped the charges.
899
00:41:39,719 --> 00:41:42,766
Well, wait a second,
why would he do that?
900
00:41:42,809 --> 00:41:46,813
Well, the way my dad
and my uncle explained it to me,
901
00:41:46,857 --> 00:41:49,163
he said back to them
the same thing
902
00:41:49,207 --> 00:41:51,339
they kept saying
to each other:
903
00:41:51,383 --> 00:41:54,125
"I guess sometimes
things just happen.
904
00:41:54,168 --> 00:41:56,431
Sometimes they just do."
905
00:41:59,043 --> 00:42:01,480
Yeah, I get that.
906
00:42:01,524 --> 00:42:03,830
But I don't think
that could happen today.
907
00:42:03,874 --> 00:42:05,484
I kind of think
the world must've been
908
00:42:05,528 --> 00:42:07,530
much simpler back then.
909
00:42:11,969 --> 00:42:14,101
BULL:
Come on, you two,
get in here.
910
00:42:14,145 --> 00:42:16,277
It's almost next year.
911
00:42:16,321 --> 00:42:18,584
BENNY:
Hey, time's a-wasting.
912
00:42:18,628 --> 00:42:20,107
Ball's about to drop.
913
00:42:20,151 --> 00:42:23,763
Okay, Dad. Okay, Uncle Benny.
914
00:42:23,807 --> 00:42:25,983
We'll be right in.
