Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:01,335 --> 00:00:04,430
Narrator: In the criminal justice
system, the people are represented
2
00:00:04,471 --> 00:00:07,031
by two separate yet
equally important groups...
3
00:00:07,074 --> 00:00:08,940
The police who
investigate crime,
4
00:00:08,976 --> 00:00:11,946
and the district attorneys
who prosecute the offenders.
5
00:00:11,979 --> 00:00:13,641
These are their stories.
6
00:00:14,815 --> 00:00:17,444
Upstairs neighbor
complained about the smell.
7
00:00:17,484 --> 00:00:20,477
Don't worry, Max. It's
just three more flights.
8
00:00:22,289 --> 00:00:24,554
Didn't somebody
find the coffee yet?
9
00:00:24,591 --> 00:00:26,617
Max: Whew.
10
00:00:35,802 --> 00:00:37,600
Yo, Profaci!
11
00:00:41,708 --> 00:00:43,939
Hey, Mikey.
12
00:00:48,549 --> 00:00:51,610
Holland, Bobby. 26, 27?
13
00:00:51,652 --> 00:00:54,212
Shot in the back of the
head. Probably two days.
14
00:00:54,254 --> 00:00:56,917
Ask me, it was
probably a dealer.
15
00:00:58,759 --> 00:01:01,558
Weapon? Still looking.
16
00:01:01,595 --> 00:01:04,292
Who shoots in the
head besides dealers?
17
00:01:05,299 --> 00:01:07,131
A robber who gets surprised?
18
00:01:07,167 --> 00:01:09,796
A burglar so surprised...
19
00:01:09,836 --> 00:01:13,034
he leaves behind a full wallet?
20
00:02:38,325 --> 00:02:40,487
Man: It needs a paint job.
21
00:02:40,527 --> 00:02:44,191
The guy's dead. If they had
a decent door downstairs.
22
00:02:44,231 --> 00:02:46,393
I'm below him. In 2A.
23
00:02:46,433 --> 00:02:47,833
Did you ever talk to him?
24
00:02:47,868 --> 00:02:49,928
He listened to sad music.
25
00:02:49,970 --> 00:02:52,667
Piano stuff. Gershwin.
26
00:02:52,706 --> 00:02:55,767
Left early. Came home late.
27
00:02:55,809 --> 00:02:57,801
You see anybody with
him Saturday night?
28
00:02:57,844 --> 00:03:00,245
Saturday night, about 1:30
29
00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:02,112
I'm coming back from
Symphony Space.
30
00:03:02,149 --> 00:03:03,947
This guy tears past me.
31
00:03:03,984 --> 00:03:05,714
You get a good look at him?
32
00:03:05,752 --> 00:03:08,722
1:00 a.m., guy goes running
down the steps in this city?
33
00:03:08,755 --> 00:03:10,781
I've learned not to look.
34
00:03:12,793 --> 00:03:15,922
Brownstones, they're
invitations to get robbed.
35
00:03:15,962 --> 00:03:17,692
How many sets of
prints have you got?
36
00:03:17,731 --> 00:03:20,166
I've got partials from
about a dozen people.
37
00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:22,192
It's what you'd expect.
38
00:03:22,235 --> 00:03:24,067
Unless somebody
wiped the place down.
39
00:03:24,104 --> 00:03:26,266
You run them? No match.
40
00:03:26,306 --> 00:03:28,241
None of his friends had records.
41
00:03:28,275 --> 00:03:30,506
Neither did he.
42
00:03:30,544 --> 00:03:32,274
Man: What'd they used to say?
43
00:03:32,312 --> 00:03:34,372
"Live fast, die young,
44
00:03:34,414 --> 00:03:36,178
leave a beautiful corpse."
45
00:03:36,216 --> 00:03:39,277
Whoever shot this one,
didn't care about beautiful.
46
00:03:39,319 --> 00:03:41,117
You should have
seen the apartment.
47
00:03:41,154 --> 00:03:42,986
It was more trashed
than the victim.
48
00:03:43,023 --> 00:03:45,185
Not to boil your coffee
or anything, but...
49
00:03:45,225 --> 00:03:48,093
a guy fights with a burglar.
50
00:03:48,128 --> 00:03:50,097
He gets banged up.
51
00:03:50,130 --> 00:03:51,621
Not the late Mr. Holland.
52
00:03:51,665 --> 00:03:54,294
Not a bruise, not a mark,
not a scratch on the body,
53
00:03:54,334 --> 00:03:57,736
just a nice, clean
.38 entrance wound.
54
00:03:57,771 --> 00:03:59,967
Close range? A foot,
maybe 18 inches.
55
00:04:00,006 --> 00:04:01,998
Powder burns, stippling.
56
00:04:02,042 --> 00:04:04,409
Check both hands? They're clean.
57
00:04:04,444 --> 00:04:06,879
Not a trace of powder.
The guy didn't shoot himself.
58
00:04:06,913 --> 00:04:08,779
That's dead certain.
59
00:04:14,421 --> 00:04:16,447
Mrs. Holland:
Bobby was big. He...
60
00:04:16,490 --> 00:04:19,790
When he was born he
was over 1 1 pounds.
61
00:04:20,861 --> 00:04:23,194
He was... he's always been big.
62
00:04:24,631 --> 00:04:25,860
They...
63
00:04:25,899 --> 00:04:29,165
Don't attack big people.
I read it in "The Post."
64
00:04:32,072 --> 00:04:34,439
Could you tell us
about your son's friends,
65
00:04:34,474 --> 00:04:36,739
places he used to hang out?
66
00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:40,838
He... he...
67
00:04:40,881 --> 00:04:43,373
He kept to himself... a lot.
68
00:04:43,416 --> 00:04:45,783
He didn't have a lot of friends.
69
00:04:47,687 --> 00:04:49,588
I should go get his mail.
70
00:04:52,025 --> 00:04:54,187
Bobby have any... brothers?
71
00:04:54,227 --> 00:04:56,355
Sisters?
72
00:04:57,931 --> 00:05:00,833
After Bobby, we
didn't have anymore.
73
00:05:04,237 --> 00:05:06,172
He was a very difficult birth.
74
00:05:06,206 --> 00:05:08,175
I'm... I had...
75
00:05:08,208 --> 00:05:10,302
Well, there was just...
76
00:05:10,343 --> 00:05:12,471
I've no more children.
77
00:05:15,549 --> 00:05:17,484
And now we've lost him.
78
00:05:17,517 --> 00:05:21,545
Mr. Holland: We lost him
when he moved over the bridge.
79
00:05:32,432 --> 00:05:34,731
Max: Personal possessions.
80
00:05:34,768 --> 00:05:37,636
Things they found on him
when he was brought in.
81
00:05:37,671 --> 00:05:40,004
Would you sign for them, please?
82
00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:42,009
Took the watch, huh?
83
00:05:42,042 --> 00:05:44,409
An Omega, big heavy job.
84
00:05:44,444 --> 00:05:46,413
Steel.
85
00:05:46,446 --> 00:05:49,314
High school graduation,
it cost me a week's pay.
86
00:05:50,650 --> 00:05:51,948
The band?
87
00:05:51,985 --> 00:05:53,954
It had links. Tight.
88
00:05:53,987 --> 00:05:57,685
Steel, too. He wore it
to work without worry.
89
00:05:59,726 --> 00:06:02,696
When he first moved to
the city I bought him a gun.
90
00:06:03,964 --> 00:06:06,661
A pistol? A.38, it was licensed.
91
00:06:06,700 --> 00:06:08,601
I told him, "Keep
it next to the bed."
92
00:06:08,635 --> 00:06:10,797
Why didn't he defend himself?
93
00:06:12,005 --> 00:06:13,906
You got a big tough
guy, big enough
94
00:06:13,940 --> 00:06:15,932
to toss most people
around like a pillow.
95
00:06:15,976 --> 00:06:18,241
There's always somebody bigger.
96
00:06:18,278 --> 00:06:20,338
The apartment
looked like Beirut.
97
00:06:20,380 --> 00:06:22,440
And our vic, not
a bruise or a cut.
98
00:06:22,482 --> 00:06:25,247
You fight with a crackhead,
you'll get hit, something.
99
00:06:25,285 --> 00:06:27,948
A bullet in the head
is not something?
100
00:06:27,988 --> 00:06:30,389
How'd the perp
get in? Fire escape.
101
00:06:30,423 --> 00:06:32,688
Nope. One door, no fire escape.
102
00:06:32,726 --> 00:06:35,127
Then, maybe we're
talking about a friend here.
103
00:06:35,161 --> 00:06:37,392
A friend with a grudge?
You got something better?
104
00:06:37,430 --> 00:06:41,265
Maybe you should go out, shake up
the ground a little, see who he knew.
105
00:06:44,271 --> 00:06:46,536
Workman: Drop that rope!
106
00:06:46,573 --> 00:06:49,441
Mark it down-side off.
107
00:06:50,977 --> 00:06:53,173
Whoa, whoa, whoa!
Right there! Hold up!
108
00:06:53,213 --> 00:06:55,944
I hope to God
you get who did it.
109
00:06:55,982 --> 00:06:58,542
Bobby was a good man.
110
00:06:58,585 --> 00:07:00,349
Women problems?
111
00:07:00,387 --> 00:07:02,413
Bobby didn't cat around.
112
00:07:03,423 --> 00:07:05,517
Gamble?
113
00:07:05,558 --> 00:07:07,322
Not even a football pool.
114
00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:10,125
Bobby Holland
hang out after work?
115
00:07:10,163 --> 00:07:12,029
Didn't even come
to union meetings.
116
00:07:12,065 --> 00:07:14,591
Mr. Massacio, come on, he must
have hung out with somebody.
117
00:07:14,634 --> 00:07:16,432
Go ask Suarez...
118
00:07:16,469 --> 00:07:18,938
Angel. Sometimes
they had lunch together.
119
00:07:18,972 --> 00:07:20,270
Thanks.
120
00:07:24,844 --> 00:07:27,279
Angel Suarez?
121
00:07:27,314 --> 00:07:29,715
Detective Logan.
Sergeant Greevey.
122
00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:35,689
I already heard about Bobby.
123
00:07:35,722 --> 00:07:37,315
Were you a friend of his?
124
00:07:38,358 --> 00:07:41,385
I knew him. Real broken up, huh?
125
00:07:41,428 --> 00:07:43,363
If I knew who did
him I'd let you know.
126
00:07:43,396 --> 00:07:44,762
Where were you Saturday night?
127
00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:49,292
In San Juan,
visiting my parents.
128
00:07:49,336 --> 00:07:51,498
I got back Sunday night.
129
00:07:53,340 --> 00:07:55,605
You want to see my plane ticket?
130
00:07:56,609 --> 00:07:58,441
We're talking murder, here.
131
00:07:59,913 --> 00:08:02,610
Look, the night Bobby
got it he was having a drink
132
00:08:02,649 --> 00:08:05,778
with a friend... Lois Rivera.
133
00:08:05,819 --> 00:08:09,915
She has a gourmet sandwich
cart on the Upper West Side.
134
00:08:09,956 --> 00:08:12,357
If you guys find the killer
135
00:08:12,392 --> 00:08:15,692
and wanna save the state
the price of a trial, gimme a call.
136
00:08:20,700 --> 00:08:22,259
Thanks.
137
00:08:22,302 --> 00:08:24,771
That night, before
I met my sister,
138
00:08:24,804 --> 00:08:26,966
I had a drink with Bobby.
139
00:08:28,241 --> 00:08:30,267
We talked a while
about nothing really.
140
00:08:30,310 --> 00:08:32,870
I just told him he
should go back to school.
141
00:08:32,912 --> 00:08:35,211
City College, part-time.
142
00:08:35,248 --> 00:08:37,740
Bobby was real smart.
143
00:08:38,918 --> 00:08:41,444
He knew a lot about music.
He read a lot of books.
144
00:08:41,488 --> 00:08:43,252
Anybody want to hurt him?
145
00:08:46,192 --> 00:08:48,855
No. Nobody I could think of.
146
00:08:48,895 --> 00:08:51,262
Where'd he go after he left you?
147
00:08:54,768 --> 00:08:56,760
It's Lois, right?
148
00:08:56,803 --> 00:08:58,101
Listen.
149
00:08:58,138 --> 00:09:01,040
Somebody blew your
boyfriend's brains out
150
00:09:01,074 --> 00:09:03,009
with a.38, okay?
151
00:09:05,245 --> 00:09:08,704
He went to a bar
downtown, Paradise Lost.
152
00:09:13,053 --> 00:09:16,615
Look, I really
wasn't Bobby's girl.
153
00:09:16,656 --> 00:09:18,818
Just a good friend.
154
00:09:24,831 --> 00:09:26,959
Bobby was gay.
155
00:09:33,006 --> 00:09:35,441
You couldn't miss the
guy. Logan: Why not?
156
00:09:35,475 --> 00:09:38,502
The kind of crowd we get.
You know, average guys.
157
00:09:38,545 --> 00:09:41,606
Construction workers.
Grad students from NYU.
158
00:09:41,648 --> 00:09:43,617
Easy mix. Neighborhood.
159
00:09:43,650 --> 00:09:46,245
So here's this character
dressed kind of charivari.
160
00:09:46,286 --> 00:09:48,152
Black t-shirt, gray silk jacket.
161
00:09:48,188 --> 00:09:50,350
You know the look,
"I'm cool and you're not."
162
00:09:50,390 --> 00:09:52,359
You ever seen him
with Holland before?
163
00:09:52,392 --> 00:09:55,385
Bobby doesn't
come in a lot, lately,
164
00:09:55,428 --> 00:09:58,421
more like after
work for a Michelob.
165
00:09:58,465 --> 00:10:00,559
The silk jacket and Bobby
166
00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:02,728
were sitting over there.
167
00:10:02,769 --> 00:10:05,500
Couldn't hear them,
then they were gone.
168
00:10:07,407 --> 00:10:09,933
Silk jacket... Want
to know the truth?
169
00:10:09,976 --> 00:10:12,070
I thought he was a hustler.
170
00:10:12,112 --> 00:10:16,106
Something about
him. I don't know.
171
00:10:18,885 --> 00:10:21,286
I don't know.
172
00:10:22,555 --> 00:10:24,717
Logan: So he was rough trade.
173
00:10:24,757 --> 00:10:26,419
So they do their thing.
174
00:10:26,459 --> 00:10:29,054
Mr. Silk Jacket does it all.
175
00:10:29,095 --> 00:10:31,496
Sex. Kills the guy.
Then trashes the place
176
00:10:31,531 --> 00:10:33,022
looking for something to take.
177
00:10:33,066 --> 00:10:36,127
Yeah, and the
odds on finding him?
178
00:10:36,169 --> 00:10:39,936
About as good as finding
true love at Paradise Lost.
179
00:10:39,973 --> 00:10:42,306
Max: I don't know.
His parents, his boss,
180
00:10:42,342 --> 00:10:44,538
his coworkers, his neighbors...
181
00:10:44,577 --> 00:10:46,512
No one knew this guy was gay.
182
00:10:46,546 --> 00:10:48,708
They're out there, I
don't see them either.
183
00:10:48,748 --> 00:10:52,685
Think a lot of cops
are gay? No way, man.
184
00:10:52,719 --> 00:10:54,654
Department's got a special test.
185
00:10:54,687 --> 00:10:57,179
They look you in the
eye, if your left eye blinks
186
00:10:57,223 --> 00:10:59,749
before your right eye
they know you're gay.
187
00:11:05,565 --> 00:11:07,898
They say one in 10, Max.
188
00:11:07,934 --> 00:11:10,301
That's a lot. They just fade in.
189
00:11:11,504 --> 00:11:14,997
Silk Jacket? Five to one
he's not in any of these.
190
00:11:15,041 --> 00:11:17,272
Good news and bad news.
191
00:11:17,310 --> 00:11:20,678
The good news is somebody
just walked in and confessed?
192
00:11:20,713 --> 00:11:23,376
The good news is
they found the gun.
193
00:11:23,416 --> 00:11:25,248
Empty lot, six blocks away.
194
00:11:25,285 --> 00:11:26,617
Bad news, wiped clean.
195
00:11:26,653 --> 00:11:28,918
Registration? You're
gonna love this.
196
00:11:28,955 --> 00:11:31,390
Your vic, Bobby Holland.
197
00:11:31,424 --> 00:11:33,586
Terrific.
198
00:11:40,867 --> 00:11:43,632
Bobby was always
popular with the girls.
199
00:11:43,670 --> 00:11:45,969
He was a halfback
on the football team.
200
00:11:46,005 --> 00:11:49,373
He was on the student
council. He was king of the prom.
201
00:11:50,476 --> 00:11:52,843
He hid his magazines
under the mattress.
202
00:11:52,879 --> 00:11:54,848
"Playboy."
203
00:11:56,783 --> 00:11:59,275
My son was not homosexual!
204
00:12:07,193 --> 00:12:10,493
She knows. She
just can't admit it.
205
00:12:10,530 --> 00:12:13,193
Can you? Bobby had
everything going for him.
206
00:12:13,233 --> 00:12:15,327
Any girl he wanted.
207
00:12:15,368 --> 00:12:17,837
His friends would come
over, hang out in the yard...
208
00:12:17,870 --> 00:12:19,805
Just to be around him.
209
00:12:19,839 --> 00:12:22,138
Have him throw
the football, like that.
210
00:12:23,343 --> 00:12:26,040
When he dropped his
high school girlfriend...
211
00:12:28,281 --> 00:12:30,614
Beauty. She was a beauty.
212
00:12:30,650 --> 00:12:32,243
Gorgeous.
213
00:12:32,285 --> 00:12:34,516
He moved to Manhattan.
214
00:12:37,023 --> 00:12:39,322
I go to visit him in the city.
215
00:12:39,359 --> 00:12:42,591
Sometimes... I...
216
00:12:42,629 --> 00:12:44,495
I just stare.
217
00:12:44,530 --> 00:12:47,659
He looked like everybody else.
218
00:12:47,700 --> 00:12:49,726
He talked like everybody else.
219
00:12:49,769 --> 00:12:52,466
Max: Do you know if he
brought people home a lot?
220
00:12:52,505 --> 00:12:54,235
I told him,
221
00:12:54,274 --> 00:12:56,834
"You don't know what
kind of nuts you're meeting.
222
00:12:56,876 --> 00:12:59,004
There's all kinds
of loonies out there."
223
00:12:59,045 --> 00:13:02,038
That's... that's when
I bought him the gun.
224
00:13:02,081 --> 00:13:04,050
Logan: What about boyfriends?
225
00:13:04,083 --> 00:13:05,915
He ever tell you anything
about any of them?
226
00:13:05,952 --> 00:13:09,013
What'd I want to hear?
Want to rub my nose in it?
227
00:13:14,560 --> 00:13:16,722
He mentioned one guy.
228
00:13:18,598 --> 00:13:20,590
A... Angel.
229
00:13:23,036 --> 00:13:25,369
Angel... somebody.
230
00:13:29,275 --> 00:13:32,473
Denny Massacio in there,
what do you think he'd say,
231
00:13:32,512 --> 00:13:35,914
you told him Bobby was
gay? Or that you are?
232
00:13:35,948 --> 00:13:38,349
He'd never believe
it. He'd laugh.
233
00:13:38,384 --> 00:13:39,943
And that's how I want it.
234
00:13:39,986 --> 00:13:42,455
What about you
and Bobby Holland?
235
00:13:44,357 --> 00:13:46,155
I used to hate being gay.
236
00:13:46,192 --> 00:13:48,320
I used to make fag
jokes all the time.
237
00:13:48,361 --> 00:13:51,297
You know, the way blacks
call each other nigger?
238
00:13:51,331 --> 00:13:54,301
Anyway, Bobby would
never let me get away with it.
239
00:13:54,334 --> 00:13:56,826
I was in love with Bobby.
240
00:13:59,138 --> 00:14:01,039
So you take a
weekend out of town,
241
00:14:01,074 --> 00:14:03,202
and he picks up
somebody else, huh?
242
00:14:03,242 --> 00:14:06,610
Six, eight weeks ago he
started seeing somebody new.
243
00:14:08,181 --> 00:14:09,877
We were over.
244
00:14:09,916 --> 00:14:13,250
I don't know what this guy had
for him, but they met at the gym.
245
00:14:13,286 --> 00:14:16,017
You know his name? He lives
somewhere on the East Side.
246
00:14:16,055 --> 00:14:18,081
Jack.
247
00:14:18,124 --> 00:14:19,990
I don't know his last name.
248
00:14:22,829 --> 00:14:25,560
Gray silk jacket named Jack.
249
00:14:25,598 --> 00:14:27,396
Great.
250
00:14:27,433 --> 00:14:29,299
A bullet to the head.
251
00:14:29,335 --> 00:14:31,167
This case, I heard
about it before.
252
00:14:31,204 --> 00:14:32,604
What are you a psychic now?
253
00:14:32,638 --> 00:14:34,607
A month ago, maybe two.
254
00:14:34,640 --> 00:14:36,472
The same kind of killing.
255
00:14:36,509 --> 00:14:38,375
Gay bashing? I read about it.
256
00:14:38,411 --> 00:14:41,438
"Time," "Newsweek," last
week or the week before.
257
00:14:43,916 --> 00:14:47,080
You sure you didn't read
about this in your dreams?
258
00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:49,351
"California."
259
00:14:49,389 --> 00:14:52,018
"Redwoods."
260
00:14:52,058 --> 00:14:54,050
"Michelle Pfeiffer."
261
00:14:55,695 --> 00:14:57,823
One of them interests you.
262
00:14:57,864 --> 00:14:59,799
"Earthquakes."
263
00:15:01,234 --> 00:15:03,863
And murder.
264
00:15:08,141 --> 00:15:10,133
Max: No prints here either.
265
00:15:12,845 --> 00:15:15,713
Gun was found in an
empty lot, wiped clean.
266
00:15:15,748 --> 00:15:17,740
Burglary?
267
00:15:19,619 --> 00:15:21,349
Uh-huh.
268
00:15:22,789 --> 00:15:24,417
Ripped the place apart.
269
00:15:24,457 --> 00:15:26,790
A week later, another
one just like it in LA.
270
00:15:29,729 --> 00:15:31,925
The vic's address book?
271
00:15:32,932 --> 00:15:34,867
Can you fax it?
272
00:15:34,901 --> 00:15:37,871
212-555-8342.
273
00:15:41,607 --> 00:15:43,132
Yeah, all right.
274
00:15:43,176 --> 00:15:45,168
Thanks.
275
00:15:46,579 --> 00:15:48,207
He's faxing it.
276
00:15:48,247 --> 00:15:50,876
Call Sheriff's Homicide in LA.
277
00:15:50,917 --> 00:15:54,149
Lead investigator's
name is Sam White.
278
00:15:56,489 --> 00:15:58,754
They're not as
friendly in Los Angeles.
279
00:15:58,791 --> 00:16:00,657
Too much sun makes 'em crazy.
280
00:16:00,693 --> 00:16:02,889
Am I sure it's a similar case?
281
00:16:02,929 --> 00:16:06,127
I'm as sure as I can be,
not looking at the bodies.
282
00:16:06,165 --> 00:16:08,464
Right.
283
00:16:08,501 --> 00:16:10,026
Mm-hmm.
284
00:16:10,069 --> 00:16:12,038
The victim had no address book.
285
00:16:12,071 --> 00:16:14,370
Just a lot of phone
numbers on scraps of paper.
286
00:16:14,407 --> 00:16:15,898
Copies?
287
00:16:15,942 --> 00:16:18,878
Oh, an open homicide
investigation?!
288
00:16:18,911 --> 00:16:21,540
What do you think we're
doing, getting cats out of trees?
289
00:16:21,581 --> 00:16:24,710
Look, we link the victims,
we got a case, okay?
290
00:16:24,750 --> 00:16:27,083
Now if you can just send us...
291
00:16:27,119 --> 00:16:30,112
Nobody's asking
for the originals!
292
00:16:30,156 --> 00:16:33,024
Just fax us whatever
you got, okay?
293
00:16:33,059 --> 00:16:36,257
What? Fax you, okay?
294
00:16:38,364 --> 00:16:39,923
"In an open investigation
295
00:16:39,966 --> 00:16:42,561
we do not release evidence
under any circumstances."
296
00:16:42,602 --> 00:16:45,003
You know how some people
gotta give you a hard time
297
00:16:45,037 --> 00:16:46,938
just to feel like they're alive.
298
00:16:46,973 --> 00:16:49,499
Let's give 'em a hard time back.
299
00:16:49,542 --> 00:16:52,444
Look, do they want
an arrest or what?
300
00:16:52,478 --> 00:16:55,141
You put the fire out
and I'll settle this thing.
301
00:16:55,181 --> 00:16:57,980
Yes. Yes, Captain. Mm-hmm.
302
00:16:58,017 --> 00:17:01,215
Yeah, if it's their collar.
303
00:17:01,254 --> 00:17:03,155
Of course we understand.
304
00:17:03,189 --> 00:17:05,556
Detective Logan has...
305
00:17:05,591 --> 00:17:08,322
been under a little
pressure on this case.
306
00:17:08,361 --> 00:17:10,421
Pressure?
307
00:17:10,463 --> 00:17:13,831
Yes, yes, we would
appreciate that very much.
308
00:17:15,468 --> 00:17:17,460
A courier?
309
00:17:18,771 --> 00:17:20,899
Well, the city is
bankrupt, but...
310
00:17:20,940 --> 00:17:23,239
yes, I think we could
"spring" for a courier.
311
00:17:23,276 --> 00:17:25,336
Uh-huh. Yeah.
312
00:17:25,378 --> 00:17:27,847
No, no, no. Thank you, Captain.
313
00:17:27,880 --> 00:17:29,439
You believe that?
314
00:17:29,482 --> 00:17:32,247
They don't want to lose
even a copy of this stuff.
315
00:17:32,285 --> 00:17:33,810
What's with them?
316
00:17:33,853 --> 00:17:35,651
You know, fellas,
317
00:17:35,688 --> 00:17:37,919
at what this courier is
going to cost the city,
318
00:17:37,957 --> 00:17:39,926
I hope this works.
319
00:17:42,628 --> 00:17:44,790
Logan: You can cross out
320
00:17:44,830 --> 00:17:47,095
Jack E. In San Francisco.
321
00:17:47,133 --> 00:17:49,762
He still lives there,
hasn't left town.
322
00:17:51,771 --> 00:17:55,572
That's all the
Johns, Jays, Jacks.
323
00:17:55,608 --> 00:17:58,407
All the last names
with no first initials.
324
00:17:58,444 --> 00:18:02,313
Anybody in San
Francisco, LA or New York.
325
00:18:02,348 --> 00:18:06,217
I got San Francisco, start
with Holland's address book.
326
00:18:06,252 --> 00:18:08,050
Read me off the last four digits
327
00:18:08,087 --> 00:18:10,181
of any of the ones
with telephone numbers.
328
00:18:13,159 --> 00:18:15,560
"Albano. 4512.
329
00:18:15,595 --> 00:18:19,157
Altman. 1 763.
330
00:18:19,198 --> 00:18:21,690
Berry. 9808.
331
00:18:21,734 --> 00:18:24,431
Curry. 4212.
332
00:18:24,470 --> 00:18:26,735
Delorman. 78..."
333
00:18:26,772 --> 00:18:29,401
Wait a minute, hold it.
334
00:18:29,442 --> 00:18:31,673
That's Holland's "J. Curry."
335
00:18:40,252 --> 00:18:43,450
San Francisco's got "John C."
336
00:18:43,489 --> 00:18:47,790
who lives in New York, and
has the same phone number.
337
00:18:51,230 --> 00:18:53,597
Yeah.
338
00:18:53,633 --> 00:18:56,102
And LA's got...
339
00:19:01,173 --> 00:19:03,438
"J.R.C."
340
00:19:04,477 --> 00:19:06,639
New York.
341
00:19:11,250 --> 00:19:12,946
Same number.
342
00:19:14,687 --> 00:19:16,918
You got the odds on
three murder victims
343
00:19:16,956 --> 00:19:19,187
knowing the same guy?
344
00:19:20,760 --> 00:19:23,924
He was in San Francisco and
LA when the others were killed.
345
00:19:23,963 --> 00:19:27,024
Same days? And
one on either side.
346
00:19:27,066 --> 00:19:30,127
And all three of them had his
name in their address book?
347
00:19:30,169 --> 00:19:33,833
Not to mention Bobby Holland's
new boyfriend's name is Jack.
348
00:19:35,007 --> 00:19:37,567
Enough?
349
00:19:37,610 --> 00:19:39,636
Pick him up.
350
00:19:44,216 --> 00:19:45,809
Bust the door and
then stand back.
351
00:19:45,851 --> 00:19:48,753
My partner and I will
go in first. It's our collar.
352
00:19:53,826 --> 00:19:56,557
That's funny. I
figured Def Leppard.
353
00:19:56,595 --> 00:19:59,622
Maybe Motley Cr e. Ready? Go.
354
00:20:00,800 --> 00:20:03,497
Police! Which one
of you is Jack Curry?
355
00:20:03,536 --> 00:20:05,767
I'm Jack Curry. You're
under arrest for the murder
356
00:20:05,805 --> 00:20:07,740
of Bobby Holland! Put
your hands on your head!
357
00:20:11,410 --> 00:20:13,572
Check it out. Get up!
358
00:20:16,749 --> 00:20:19,184
Spread your legs! You
have the right to remain silent.
359
00:20:19,218 --> 00:20:21,710
Anything you say may be used
against you in a court of law.
360
00:20:21,754 --> 00:20:23,723
Hands down! Get your hand down!
361
00:20:23,756 --> 00:20:25,657
You have the
right to an attorney.
362
00:20:25,691 --> 00:20:28,752
If you cannot afford an attorney,
one will be provided for you at no cost.
363
00:20:28,794 --> 00:20:30,387
Let's go.
364
00:20:35,201 --> 00:20:37,432
Max: His lawyer's already here.
365
00:20:37,470 --> 00:20:39,598
Julia DeBakey.
366
00:20:39,638 --> 00:20:41,573
Great. What? Who's she?
367
00:20:41,607 --> 00:20:45,271
Probably the toughest civil rights
lawyer since William Kunstler.
368
00:20:46,779 --> 00:20:48,441
Paul Robinette. Julia DeBakey.
369
00:20:48,481 --> 00:20:50,780
Your cops put my
client in a holding cell
370
00:20:50,816 --> 00:20:52,785
with a bunch of drug addicts.
371
00:20:52,818 --> 00:20:55,253
Jeez, we tried to get
him a private suite.
372
00:20:55,287 --> 00:20:57,449
Eh, he looks like he survived.
373
00:20:57,490 --> 00:21:01,291
Counselor, this case, it
isn't exactly your ballgame.
374
00:21:01,327 --> 00:21:03,558
Oh, how wrong you
are, Mr. Robinette.
375
00:21:03,596 --> 00:21:05,997
We're building a whole
new ballpark with this one.
376
00:21:07,066 --> 00:21:09,001
I'll allow my client
to answer questions
377
00:21:09,034 --> 00:21:11,162
but I may cut this
off at any time.
378
00:21:11,203 --> 00:21:13,331
Logan: Let's start with
the wristwatch, Jack.
379
00:21:13,372 --> 00:21:15,841
Engraved to Bobby
Holland on the back.
380
00:21:18,978 --> 00:21:20,674
Bobby gave it to
me as a present.
381
00:21:20,713 --> 00:21:23,012
Just before you
blew his head off?
382
00:21:23,048 --> 00:21:26,917
To thank me for helping
him to shoot himself.
383
00:21:26,952 --> 00:21:29,387
You want to run
that by us again.
384
00:21:29,421 --> 00:21:34,052
Bobby wanted help...
To commit suicide.
385
00:21:34,093 --> 00:21:36,756
Look, he had AIDS.
386
00:21:36,796 --> 00:21:40,324
He wanted it to look like a robbery
so his mother wouldn't know.
387
00:21:43,135 --> 00:21:46,162
And when you went to visit
Uncle Joe in Los Angeles?
388
00:21:46,205 --> 00:21:48,299
And Aunt Millie
in San Francisco?
389
00:21:56,348 --> 00:21:58,078
You know about them?
390
00:22:02,454 --> 00:22:04,423
Look...
391
00:22:04,456 --> 00:22:06,584
if you commit suicide
392
00:22:06,625 --> 00:22:08,594
you don't get the insurance.
393
00:22:08,627 --> 00:22:10,027
Those men...
394
00:22:10,062 --> 00:22:12,190
Forest? Dodge?
395
00:22:12,231 --> 00:22:15,360
Yes, they pulled the
triggers themselves.
396
00:22:15,401 --> 00:22:17,267
And you just wipe the gun clean?
397
00:22:17,303 --> 00:22:20,967
My client has nothing
to say about those cases.
398
00:22:22,341 --> 00:22:23,900
What about Bobby Holland?
399
00:22:23,943 --> 00:22:26,242
Do you know what
AIDS looks like?
400
00:22:26,278 --> 00:22:29,373
Have you seen Kaposi's Sarcoma?
401
00:22:29,415 --> 00:22:31,384
Do you know what
pneumocystis does?
402
00:22:31,417 --> 00:22:34,615
What it's like when
you can't breathe?
403
00:22:34,653 --> 00:22:38,488
Dodge won a
silver metal in Seoul.
404
00:22:38,524 --> 00:22:41,392
Forest, used to be a
professor out at UCLA,
405
00:22:41,427 --> 00:22:43,225
PhD in Linguistics.
406
00:22:43,262 --> 00:22:46,096
The last month of his life
he forgot how to tell the time.
407
00:22:46,131 --> 00:22:49,124
Did you shoot Bobby Holland?
408
00:22:49,168 --> 00:22:51,967
Bobby didn't want to waste away.
409
00:22:52,004 --> 00:22:54,735
Who pulled the trigger?
410
00:22:56,342 --> 00:22:58,277
I held the gun.
411
00:22:59,278 --> 00:23:01,907
Bobby wrapped his
hand around mine.
412
00:23:01,947 --> 00:23:03,916
He said he wanted to die.
413
00:23:05,517 --> 00:23:07,850
I helped Bobby
do what he wanted.
414
00:23:12,057 --> 00:23:15,858
I didn't... I didn't
wanna do it,
415
00:23:15,895 --> 00:23:18,091
but I wasn't considering myself.
416
00:23:18,130 --> 00:23:20,690
It's called Mercy Killing.
417
00:23:20,733 --> 00:23:24,795
You have 48 hours to
arraign him or let him go.
418
00:23:24,837 --> 00:23:27,671
Ask the medical examiner
if Holland did have AIDS.
419
00:23:27,706 --> 00:23:29,334
You'll get answers
faster than I will.
420
00:23:29,375 --> 00:23:32,402
And if Holland did? Find out about
the victims in LA and San Francisco.
421
00:23:32,444 --> 00:23:35,278
What if they had AIDS, too?
422
00:23:35,314 --> 00:23:37,943
We'll need answers to questions
we haven't even thought of.
423
00:23:37,983 --> 00:23:39,713
Logan: The guy's
jive. I'm telling you.
424
00:23:39,752 --> 00:23:41,152
A jury might not think so.
425
00:23:41,186 --> 00:23:43,155
What's a jury going
to think when they hear
426
00:23:43,188 --> 00:23:44,884
Holland never even
touched the gun?
427
00:23:44,924 --> 00:23:46,586
No powder residue on his hands.
428
00:23:49,161 --> 00:23:51,357
Holland had AIDS. So
did San Francisco and LA.
429
00:23:51,397 --> 00:23:53,957
So Curry's telling the
truth. Or part of the truth.
430
00:23:53,999 --> 00:23:56,434
You say it's a mercy
killing, you don't do 15-to-life.
431
00:23:56,468 --> 00:23:59,165
Because somebody has AIDS,
doesn't mean he can't be murdered.
432
00:23:59,204 --> 00:24:02,368
Where's that get us? He's killing
these AIDS patients for kicks?
433
00:24:04,143 --> 00:24:07,409
I hated Bobby being
that way. I hated it.
434
00:24:07,446 --> 00:24:10,644
People he hung out with... I
hated the way he lived his life.
435
00:24:10,683 --> 00:24:14,814
But this guy, Curry, you
shouldn't put him in jail.
436
00:24:14,853 --> 00:24:16,754
He shot your son.
437
00:24:16,789 --> 00:24:19,020
You read the
articles? Newspapers?
438
00:24:20,259 --> 00:24:22,160
Not an easy way to go.
439
00:24:24,964 --> 00:24:27,695
Bobby wanted to die.
440
00:24:27,733 --> 00:24:29,668
You can't be sure of that.
441
00:24:31,537 --> 00:24:33,529
Yes, I can.
442
00:24:35,341 --> 00:24:37,469
Bobby asked me...
443
00:24:37,509 --> 00:24:39,671
to shoot him first.
444
00:24:43,515 --> 00:24:45,677
I knew Bobby was gay.
445
00:24:47,286 --> 00:24:49,448
We just couldn't talk about it.
446
00:24:51,323 --> 00:24:54,054
I'll never have that chance now.
447
00:24:55,561 --> 00:24:57,655
That bastard, Curry...
448
00:24:57,696 --> 00:25:00,222
killed my son.
449
00:25:00,265 --> 00:25:02,496
You have to put
that man in jail.
450
00:25:02,534 --> 00:25:05,732
The defense is going to
make a very strong case
451
00:25:05,771 --> 00:25:07,967
that your son intended to die.
452
00:25:12,478 --> 00:25:14,413
I've been getting Bobby's mail.
453
00:25:14,446 --> 00:25:16,210
This letter.
454
00:25:16,248 --> 00:25:18,945
"Gay Men Allied Against Aids."
455
00:25:18,984 --> 00:25:21,977
Bobby had an
appointment with someone
456
00:25:22,021 --> 00:25:23,956
to talk about taking AZT.
457
00:25:27,159 --> 00:25:29,253
My son wanted to live.
458
00:25:32,965 --> 00:25:35,799
Judge: The charges are:
murder in the second degree;
459
00:25:35,834 --> 00:25:37,666
conspiracy in the first degree;
460
00:25:37,703 --> 00:25:39,467
manslaughter in
the first degree;
461
00:25:39,505 --> 00:25:41,167
criminally negligent homicide;
462
00:25:41,206 --> 00:25:43,539
promoting a suicide attempt;
463
00:25:43,575 --> 00:25:45,806
and reckless endangerment
in the second degree.
464
00:25:45,844 --> 00:25:47,813
Does the defendant
wish to enter a plea?
465
00:25:47,846 --> 00:25:49,974
Yes, Your Honor.
Not guilty on all counts.
466
00:25:50,015 --> 00:25:53,349
Do the people have a bail
recommendation, Mr. Stone?
467
00:25:53,385 --> 00:25:55,320
This case is a
homicide, Your Honor.
468
00:25:55,354 --> 00:25:58,119
Despite the circumstances we
feel that some bail is necessary.
469
00:25:58,157 --> 00:26:01,753
Personally, I'm uncomfortable
releasing any homicide defendant
470
00:26:01,794 --> 00:26:03,763
without substantial bail,
471
00:26:03,796 --> 00:26:06,664
but I do not feel that this
defendant is a major flight risk.
472
00:26:06,698 --> 00:26:09,429
$50,000. Short date.
473
00:26:12,504 --> 00:26:16,032
Our government is
killing us through neglect.
474
00:26:16,075 --> 00:26:19,637
The mayor, the governor, the
president, they have blood on their hands.
475
00:26:19,678 --> 00:26:23,274
While we're dying, they're
prosecuting Jack Curry.
476
00:26:23,315 --> 00:26:25,910
Take the money from
the District Attorney
477
00:26:25,951 --> 00:26:27,977
and give it to the
Health Department.
478
00:26:28,020 --> 00:26:30,285
Mr. Gordon, do you
think the prosecution
479
00:26:30,322 --> 00:26:32,291
has hustled the
people with AIDS?
480
00:26:32,324 --> 00:26:34,452
If Bobby Holland was
dying of Alzheimer's
481
00:26:34,493 --> 00:26:36,894
and Jack Curry wasn't gay,
would they charge him with murder?
482
00:26:38,397 --> 00:26:41,231
Every gay activist in the
country is going to be after us.
483
00:26:41,266 --> 00:26:43,667
I understand, Adam, but
gay/straight is not the issue,
484
00:26:43,702 --> 00:26:46,365
murder masquerading as
assisted suicide is the issue.
485
00:26:46,405 --> 00:26:49,807
Let's say we drop the charges
and go for a misdemeanor,
486
00:26:49,842 --> 00:26:51,902
we're not ignoring the
gay/straight question,
487
00:26:51,944 --> 00:26:54,675
we're making it the only question.
And you know what that is?
488
00:26:54,713 --> 00:26:57,376
Good politics. Yes, and bad law.
489
00:26:57,416 --> 00:27:00,045
It's not compassion.
It's pity for gay people.
490
00:27:00,085 --> 00:27:02,179
And pity is one step
away from ridicule.
491
00:27:04,790 --> 00:27:07,089
Now what if Bobby
Holland wanted to die?
492
00:27:09,528 --> 00:27:13,056
How does anybody know what
went through Bobby Holland's mind
493
00:27:13,098 --> 00:27:15,397
five minutes before he
died? Or two minutes?
494
00:27:15,434 --> 00:27:17,994
Or 20 seconds? Or one second?
495
00:27:18,036 --> 00:27:21,302
And Jack Curry, who's
done this twice before,
496
00:27:21,340 --> 00:27:23,434
did he talk him into it?
497
00:27:23,475 --> 00:27:26,104
Can't change the fact
498
00:27:26,145 --> 00:27:28,444
that Holland was
gay and Curry is gay.
499
00:27:28,480 --> 00:27:31,279
What I can't change
is that Jack Curry
500
00:27:31,316 --> 00:27:33,182
didn't bring pills
and leave them.
501
00:27:33,218 --> 00:27:35,119
He didn't bring a
gun and leave it.
502
00:27:35,154 --> 00:27:37,248
He pulled the trigger.
503
00:27:42,294 --> 00:27:44,695
Bobby Holland didn't
need an angel of death.
504
00:27:44,730 --> 00:27:46,722
I mean, he wasn't that sick yet.
505
00:27:46,765 --> 00:27:48,734
Did he want to die?
506
00:27:48,767 --> 00:27:51,396
Look, you're HIV positive,
507
00:27:51,436 --> 00:27:54,338
if you think you'll hang around
508
00:27:54,373 --> 00:27:57,639
till you get sick, you'll
start to feel lousy,
509
00:27:57,676 --> 00:27:59,838
it's hardly unusual
to think about suicide.
510
00:28:02,814 --> 00:28:05,875
Bobby wanted to kill
himself. I told him not to.
511
00:28:07,586 --> 00:28:09,054
And?
512
00:28:09,087 --> 00:28:11,056
He said he'd think about it...
513
00:28:11,089 --> 00:28:13,285
Going on AZT, trying
experimental drugs.
514
00:28:15,060 --> 00:28:18,053
I saw Conrad Gordon on TV.
515
00:28:18,096 --> 00:28:20,065
Anybody want to
call Jack Curry a hero,
516
00:28:20,098 --> 00:28:21,964
I tell 'em to look at me.
517
00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:24,060
I was diagnosed
with AIDS when it was
518
00:28:24,102 --> 00:28:26,401
still called GRID,
for God's sake.
519
00:28:26,438 --> 00:28:28,202
I'm still here.
520
00:28:30,909 --> 00:28:32,844
Curry had no right...
521
00:28:32,878 --> 00:28:35,109
to shoot Bobby Holland.
522
00:28:36,682 --> 00:28:38,810
Okay. Thanks.
523
00:28:45,023 --> 00:28:47,356
You're saying Bobby Holland
might have reconsidered.
524
00:28:47,392 --> 00:28:49,623
If he'd reconsidered, my
client wouldn't be here.
525
00:28:49,661 --> 00:28:51,527
You don't know
that. I don't know that.
526
00:28:51,563 --> 00:28:53,828
And even you don't
know that, Mr. Curry.
527
00:28:53,865 --> 00:28:56,198
You were involved in
those cases in California,
528
00:28:56,235 --> 00:28:58,864
do you have a stake in
getting these people to die?
529
00:28:58,904 --> 00:29:01,237
No, Mr. Stone, I don't.
530
00:29:01,273 --> 00:29:03,469
Did you try to talk
Bobby Holland out of it?
531
00:29:03,508 --> 00:29:06,205
Several times,
over several hours.
532
00:29:06,245 --> 00:29:09,010
He didn't want to
turn into a zombie.
533
00:29:09,047 --> 00:29:12,017
What if it were
your son, Mr. Stone?
534
00:29:12,050 --> 00:29:13,814
If it were my son?
535
00:29:13,852 --> 00:29:17,152
I'd take him to every hospital
in America and try to save him.
536
00:29:17,189 --> 00:29:19,658
We'll plead to
promoting a suicide.
537
00:29:19,691 --> 00:29:21,523
Stone: You'll plead
to manslaughter one.
538
00:29:23,061 --> 00:29:25,690
We'll... drop the other charges
539
00:29:25,731 --> 00:29:27,996
and make a sentencing
recommendation.
540
00:29:29,301 --> 00:29:31,270
Bobby Holland
intended to shoot himself.
541
00:29:31,303 --> 00:29:34,501
Manslaughter one is an admission
my client intended to shoot him.
542
00:29:34,539 --> 00:29:36,531
He didn't shoot
him full of penicillin.
543
00:29:39,478 --> 00:29:41,470
We're finished here, Jack.
544
00:29:44,983 --> 00:29:46,611
Look, Mr. Stone,
545
00:29:46,652 --> 00:29:49,053
I hope you never have to
face these choices yourself.
546
00:29:49,087 --> 00:29:51,420
I hope you never
see anybody dying,
547
00:29:51,456 --> 00:29:53,618
the way I've seen people dying.
548
00:29:53,659 --> 00:29:56,094
But if you do,
549
00:29:56,128 --> 00:29:58,097
I hope you have
the courage to do
550
00:29:58,130 --> 00:30:00,156
whatever has to be done.
551
00:30:13,178 --> 00:30:16,307
DeBakey: What is your position
at the hospice, Mr. Wellman?
552
00:30:16,348 --> 00:30:18,214
Wellman: I counsel
people with AIDS.
553
00:30:18,250 --> 00:30:21,345
Over the past year, how many
people have you counseled?
554
00:30:21,386 --> 00:30:24,823
Short term, over 100. Long
term, perhaps two dozen.
555
00:30:24,856 --> 00:30:27,257
And how long have
you worked there?
556
00:30:27,292 --> 00:30:28,988
1 1 years.
557
00:30:29,027 --> 00:30:31,189
And everyone you
care for is dying?
558
00:30:31,229 --> 00:30:34,097
We're all dying, Ms. DeBakey.
559
00:30:35,867 --> 00:30:39,099
I mean, the people in the
hospice are terminally ill.
560
00:30:39,137 --> 00:30:42,266
Most of those who come
to us will die within a year.
561
00:30:43,742 --> 00:30:46,143
Isn't it true that
many cancer patients
562
00:30:46,178 --> 00:30:48,272
experience excruciating pain?
563
00:30:48,313 --> 00:30:50,111
Yes, that's common.
564
00:30:52,918 --> 00:30:55,285
You ever counseled
anyone to commit suicide?
565
00:30:55,320 --> 00:30:56,652
Objection, relevance.
566
00:30:56,688 --> 00:30:58,714
This trial isn't about
the right to die.
567
00:30:58,757 --> 00:31:01,249
It's about whether the
defendant shot Bobby Holland.
568
00:31:01,293 --> 00:31:03,262
The issues
surrounding "right to die"
569
00:31:03,295 --> 00:31:05,093
are murky in this
state, Mr. Stone.
570
00:31:05,130 --> 00:31:06,962
The testimony
seems to me relevant.
571
00:31:06,998 --> 00:31:09,229
The witness will continue.
572
00:31:09,267 --> 00:31:12,760
I've counseled
people on suicide, yes.
573
00:31:12,804 --> 00:31:16,366
We call it, "Letting
yourself be snowed under."
574
00:31:16,408 --> 00:31:18,274
And what do you counsel them?
575
00:31:18,310 --> 00:31:20,176
We suggest they go to England
576
00:31:20,212 --> 00:31:23,046
where doctors have the
right to assist in dying.
577
00:31:24,049 --> 00:31:25,415
Thank you.
578
00:31:28,019 --> 00:31:31,478
Mr. Wellman, have you ever
given to anyone in your hospice
579
00:31:31,523 --> 00:31:33,617
lethal chemicals, a gun...
580
00:31:33,658 --> 00:31:35,923
Any device that might
help them commit suicide?
581
00:31:35,961 --> 00:31:37,930
No? Why not?
582
00:31:37,963 --> 00:31:40,057
I've been told it's
against the law.
583
00:31:41,733 --> 00:31:45,295
Gordon: We've established a hotline
to answer questions about AIDS.
584
00:31:45,337 --> 00:31:48,569
How many of those calls
have you answered personally?
585
00:31:48,607 --> 00:31:50,542
Thousands.
586
00:31:50,575 --> 00:31:53,443
I volunteer three nights a week.
I've been doing it seven years.
587
00:31:53,478 --> 00:31:55,572
Do the callers ever
ask you about suicide?
588
00:31:55,614 --> 00:31:57,947
Frequently. And
what do you tell them?
589
00:32:00,252 --> 00:32:02,744
That dying of AIDS
is a difficult death.
590
00:32:02,788 --> 00:32:06,247
And that they have the
right to take their own life
591
00:32:06,291 --> 00:32:08,760
when the pain becomes too great.
592
00:32:12,097 --> 00:32:13,963
Your witness, Mr. Stone.
593
00:32:13,999 --> 00:32:16,093
Now, Mr. Gordon,
as a gay activist,
594
00:32:16,134 --> 00:32:18,831
you're familiar with the current
state of treatment for AIDS?
595
00:32:18,870 --> 00:32:21,965
Reasonably. And you're
aware that AZT and other drugs
596
00:32:22,007 --> 00:32:25,341
have prolonged the life
of these patients? Yes.
597
00:32:25,377 --> 00:32:29,439
And that people have lived
with AIDS for several years?
598
00:32:29,481 --> 00:32:31,313
Yes, I know that.
599
00:32:31,349 --> 00:32:34,046
But I also know that in the
end it's a gruesome death.
600
00:32:34,085 --> 00:32:38,216
People with AIDS do not "go
gently into that good night."
601
00:32:38,256 --> 00:32:41,158
You also know that some gay
men, out of embarrassment,
602
00:32:41,193 --> 00:32:43,628
might not seek treatment
and commit suicide instead.
603
00:32:43,662 --> 00:32:45,494
Are you in favor of that?
604
00:32:46,731 --> 00:32:50,634
I'm in favor of gay men
taking power over their lives.
605
00:32:55,674 --> 00:32:58,143
No more questions, Your Honor.
606
00:33:13,191 --> 00:33:16,127
Excuse me. Are you
Ben Stone? Yes, sir.
607
00:33:17,496 --> 00:33:19,465
You gay-bashing son of a bitch!
608
00:33:19,498 --> 00:33:22,400
Leave us alone to run
our own lives and deaths.
609
00:33:29,007 --> 00:33:32,341
Adam: It could get worse. What,
you think I need a police guard?
610
00:33:32,377 --> 00:33:35,472
Why, you think it's a joke?
Gay activists don't shoot people.
611
00:33:35,514 --> 00:33:37,540
I wouldn't be so
sure you're safe, Ben.
612
00:33:39,584 --> 00:33:41,314
Jack Curry has AIDS.
613
00:33:41,353 --> 00:33:44,346
Julia DeBakey just released it.
614
00:33:47,792 --> 00:33:49,852
It's time to bail out of this.
615
00:33:59,871 --> 00:34:01,931
Stone: It just seems
like revenge at this point.
616
00:34:01,973 --> 00:34:03,999
Find us something. Anything.
617
00:34:04,042 --> 00:34:06,568
Tonight? Go back
over the evidence.
618
00:34:06,611 --> 00:34:09,445
Give us a reason to drop
the charges against Curry.
619
00:34:17,756 --> 00:34:20,021
Anybody got any idea
what we're looking for?
620
00:34:20,058 --> 00:34:21,959
Remeasure everything...
621
00:34:21,993 --> 00:34:24,292
Distance of the
body from the bed,
622
00:34:24,329 --> 00:34:26,321
blood markings. All of it.
623
00:34:26,364 --> 00:34:28,492
And redust for prints.
624
00:34:28,533 --> 00:34:30,593
Make a map of where
you get every print.
625
00:34:37,676 --> 00:34:39,304
How's the jaw?
626
00:34:39,344 --> 00:34:41,609
It only hurts
when I prosecute...
627
00:34:41,646 --> 00:34:44,138
So keep me out of court
until the swelling goes down.
628
00:34:44,182 --> 00:34:46,913
Two bookcases were turned over.
629
00:34:46,952 --> 00:34:49,786
Pushed from behind.
Yeah, we redusted.
630
00:34:49,821 --> 00:34:52,723
Full palm prints
on the back of both.
631
00:34:52,757 --> 00:34:56,956
Max: Both sets of prints
belong to Bobby Holland.
632
00:34:56,995 --> 00:34:58,463
Curry's prints weren't on them.
633
00:34:58,496 --> 00:35:00,795
Which means Holland
trashed the place himself
634
00:35:00,832 --> 00:35:02,767
to make it look like a burglary.
635
00:35:04,135 --> 00:35:06,434
Which means he wanted to die.
636
00:35:08,206 --> 00:35:10,675
Well, maybe to us. Max: Meaning?
637
00:35:11,743 --> 00:35:14,042
It's convincing
emotionally but not legally.
638
00:35:14,079 --> 00:35:16,639
The prints could have
been put there a year before.
639
00:35:16,681 --> 00:35:19,048
And as to state of mind,
he could have changed it
640
00:35:19,084 --> 00:35:21,747
the microsecond before
Curry pulled the trigger.
641
00:35:21,786 --> 00:35:23,687
But does it convince you?
642
00:35:28,660 --> 00:35:31,152
Curry's already under
a sentence of death.
643
00:35:32,330 --> 00:35:35,494
That's as much payment
as anyone could ask for.
644
00:35:38,203 --> 00:35:41,071
Drop it completely?
It's the right thing to do.
645
00:35:41,106 --> 00:35:43,735
He pleads to
promoting a suicide?
646
00:35:43,775 --> 00:35:46,006
He does no time.
647
00:35:55,787 --> 00:35:57,779
Yeah?
648
00:36:05,330 --> 00:36:07,299
You got a copycat.
649
00:36:07,332 --> 00:36:10,791
A woman from Queens
just shot her retarded son.
650
00:36:10,835 --> 00:36:14,397
She says she got the
idea of a mercy killing
651
00:36:14,439 --> 00:36:16,567
from the Holland case.
652
00:36:25,016 --> 00:36:27,144
Well?
653
00:36:28,920 --> 00:36:30,912
I've got no choice.
654
00:36:35,393 --> 00:36:37,885
We keep going.
655
00:36:38,997 --> 00:36:41,364
This morning I was
just another ruthless DA,
656
00:36:41,399 --> 00:36:43,391
now I'm running the Inquisition.
657
00:36:44,836 --> 00:36:48,170
Gordon: Mr. Stone, why do you
want to put a dying man in jail?
658
00:36:48,206 --> 00:36:51,540
Mr. Stone, if you
were dying of AIDS
659
00:36:51,576 --> 00:36:53,670
would you want someone
to end your misery?
660
00:36:55,246 --> 00:36:57,909
Mr. Gordon asks, do I want
to put a dying man in jail?
661
00:36:57,949 --> 00:37:00,817
The answer is no. But we're
asking a more important question.
662
00:37:00,852 --> 00:37:02,878
Does Jack Curry have the right,
663
00:37:02,921 --> 00:37:06,380
all by himself, to put a
dying man in his grave?
664
00:37:06,424 --> 00:37:09,360
DeBakey: You allow regular
customers to charge their drinks?
665
00:37:09,394 --> 00:37:11,386
Bartender: Well,
not exactly charge.
666
00:37:11,429 --> 00:37:14,593
You got to make a payment on
your tab every once in a while.
667
00:37:14,632 --> 00:37:17,602
Did Bobby Holland
pay his bill regularly?
668
00:37:17,635 --> 00:37:19,763
He ran a tab, on and off
669
00:37:19,804 --> 00:37:21,670
for the last two or three years.
670
00:37:21,706 --> 00:37:23,436
Paid a little on
it now and then.
671
00:37:23,475 --> 00:37:25,842
Never let it get much
over a hundred bucks.
672
00:37:27,746 --> 00:37:30,477
Did that change, Mr. Roland?
673
00:37:31,483 --> 00:37:33,349
A couple...
674
00:37:33,384 --> 00:37:36,149
a couple of weeks
before Bobby died,
675
00:37:36,187 --> 00:37:40,283
he comes in and he lays
$120 on the bar and says
676
00:37:40,325 --> 00:37:42,487
this is for the bill,
plus a tip for me.
677
00:37:42,527 --> 00:37:45,691
I said, "Bobby, what?
You hit the lottery?"
678
00:37:45,730 --> 00:37:48,256
He said, "No...
679
00:37:48,299 --> 00:37:51,030
I just wanna pay my bill."
680
00:37:53,138 --> 00:37:56,233
And after that, he paid cash.
681
00:38:00,278 --> 00:38:02,076
Your own son...
682
00:38:04,415 --> 00:38:06,543
he handed you the gun...
683
00:38:11,790 --> 00:38:13,656
what did you say?
684
00:38:15,226 --> 00:38:18,458
I told him I didn't think I
could go through with it.
685
00:38:19,898 --> 00:38:21,594
And what did he say?
686
00:38:21,633 --> 00:38:24,364
What words did he use?
687
00:38:24,402 --> 00:38:26,735
He said, "Dad...
688
00:38:26,771 --> 00:38:30,674
if you ever wanted to
do anything for me...
689
00:38:32,010 --> 00:38:33,774
do this."
690
00:38:34,779 --> 00:38:36,509
Thank you.
691
00:38:36,548 --> 00:38:38,744
No more questions.
692
00:38:41,619 --> 00:38:44,885
Mr. Holland, I know this
is difficult, so bear with me.
693
00:38:44,923 --> 00:38:48,121
You testified that your
son wanted to shoot himself.
694
00:38:48,159 --> 00:38:50,151
He had a gun, why didn't he?
695
00:38:56,701 --> 00:38:59,000
Were his reasons religious?
696
00:39:00,305 --> 00:39:01,967
No.
697
00:39:03,408 --> 00:39:06,310
Was he worried about the
pain he'd cause other people?
698
00:39:07,745 --> 00:39:09,714
No.
699
00:39:09,747 --> 00:39:13,206
Then why do you think your
son was unable to take his life?
700
00:39:16,154 --> 00:39:19,989
He said he was afraid to die.
701
00:39:21,326 --> 00:39:23,989
Thank you, sir.
702
00:39:32,604 --> 00:39:34,573
Robinette: Ben!
703
00:39:34,606 --> 00:39:37,804
Ben, DeBakey's putting
Curry on the stand.
704
00:39:37,842 --> 00:39:40,471
Tough to win the hearts
and minds of a jury
705
00:39:40,511 --> 00:39:42,673
by cross-examining
a guy dying of AIDS.
706
00:39:42,714 --> 00:39:45,149
It's still a trial.
707
00:39:48,620 --> 00:39:50,589
DeBakey: And
early in the disease
708
00:39:50,622 --> 00:39:53,421
what symptoms have
you personally witnessed?
709
00:39:53,458 --> 00:39:56,018
Exhaustion, dizziness,
710
00:39:56,060 --> 00:39:58,962
the inability to hold down food,
711
00:39:58,997 --> 00:40:01,023
loss of weight
712
00:40:01,065 --> 00:40:03,967
would be the most visible
symptom. Later in the disease?
713
00:40:05,203 --> 00:40:08,173
A friend of mine... I'd
gone to college with him...
714
00:40:08,206 --> 00:40:10,368
He went blind.
715
00:40:10,408 --> 00:40:12,274
And then he got pneumonia.
716
00:40:14,279 --> 00:40:16,680
Have you ever heard
what it sounds like
717
00:40:16,714 --> 00:40:18,512
when somebody is drowning?
718
00:40:18,549 --> 00:40:21,041
That's what he sounded like.
719
00:40:21,085 --> 00:40:23,179
For six weeks.
720
00:40:24,789 --> 00:40:27,156
You have been diagnosed
with AIDS, is that correct?
721
00:40:27,191 --> 00:40:29,387
Yes.
722
00:40:29,427 --> 00:40:31,293
What do you hope for?
723
00:40:31,329 --> 00:40:33,696
A cure.
724
00:40:35,633 --> 00:40:38,865
And if one does not
come along soon enough?
725
00:40:41,506 --> 00:40:43,668
Hope I'll be lucky
enough to find someone
726
00:40:43,708 --> 00:40:46,303
who'll help me commit suicide.
727
00:40:50,348 --> 00:40:52,214
No more questions. Your witness.
728
00:40:57,588 --> 00:40:59,580
Mr. Curry...
729
00:40:59,624 --> 00:41:01,889
who pulled the
trigger on the gun?
730
00:41:05,897 --> 00:41:08,662
Answer the question,
please, Mr. Curry.
731
00:41:11,035 --> 00:41:13,266
It was me.
732
00:41:13,304 --> 00:41:16,604
Did Mr. Holland have
his hand on the gun at all?
733
00:41:17,976 --> 00:41:19,945
N-no.
734
00:41:22,113 --> 00:41:24,241
No more questions, Your Honor.
735
00:41:25,316 --> 00:41:27,308
Judge: You may
step down, Mr. Curry.
736
00:41:30,288 --> 00:41:32,883
Your Honor, on the
basis of new information
737
00:41:32,924 --> 00:41:35,325
the defense would like to
call an unscheduled witness.
738
00:41:35,360 --> 00:41:37,192
Detective Michael Logan.
739
00:41:37,228 --> 00:41:39,254
Mr. Stone?
740
00:41:39,297 --> 00:41:41,528
No objection, Your Honor.
741
00:41:46,371 --> 00:41:48,772
She has very good sources.
742
00:41:50,174 --> 00:41:52,302
I'd like to know who they are.
743
00:41:55,580 --> 00:41:58,607
Do you swear to tell the
truth and nothing but the truth
744
00:41:58,649 --> 00:42:00,083
so help you God? I do.
745
00:42:00,118 --> 00:42:01,586
State your name. Michael Logan.
746
00:42:01,619 --> 00:42:05,715
Your Honor, I would like Detective
Logan treated as a hostile witness.
747
00:42:05,757 --> 00:42:07,749
So noted.
748
00:42:10,495 --> 00:42:13,465
Tell the jury your
profession, please.
749
00:42:13,498 --> 00:42:16,434
I'm a detective with the New
York City Police Department
750
00:42:17,902 --> 00:42:19,700
Detective Logan,
751
00:42:19,737 --> 00:42:22,502
shortly after this trial began,
did you have a conversation
752
00:42:22,540 --> 00:42:25,601
with Assistant District Attorney
Ben Stone about this case?
753
00:42:29,480 --> 00:42:31,039
Yes, I did.
754
00:42:31,082 --> 00:42:35,042
Tell us the substance
of your conversation.
755
00:42:36,654 --> 00:42:40,386
Do I have to answer that,
Judge? Yes, you do, Detective.
756
00:42:43,494 --> 00:42:45,622
Judge: Answer the
question, Detective.
757
00:42:47,331 --> 00:42:50,130
Mr. Stone said that he thought
continuing the prosecution
758
00:42:50,168 --> 00:42:51,932
seemed like revenge to him.
759
00:42:51,969 --> 00:42:54,097
DeBakey: And what
was his solution?
760
00:42:55,406 --> 00:42:57,398
Mr. Stone directed myself
761
00:42:57,442 --> 00:42:59,468
and Sergeant Greevey
to find a reason
762
00:42:59,510 --> 00:43:01,877
for him to drop the
charges against Jack Curry.
763
00:43:15,359 --> 00:43:17,385
Will the defendant please rise?
764
00:43:22,567 --> 00:43:24,297
Judge: On the first
count of the indictment
765
00:43:24,335 --> 00:43:27,396
the charge of murder in the second
degree, how does the jury find?
766
00:43:27,438 --> 00:43:30,465
Not guilty.
767
00:43:35,646 --> 00:43:37,979
On the second count,
the charge of conspiracy
768
00:43:38,015 --> 00:43:40,143
in the first degree,
how does the jury find?
769
00:43:40,184 --> 00:43:41,982
Not guilty.
770
00:43:42,019 --> 00:43:45,148
On the third count,
manslaughter in the first degree,
771
00:43:45,189 --> 00:43:47,681
how does the jury
find? Not guilty.
772
00:43:47,725 --> 00:43:49,694
On the fourth count,
773
00:43:49,727 --> 00:43:51,923
the charge of criminally
negligent homicide,
774
00:43:51,963 --> 00:43:54,558
how does the jury
find? Not guilty.
775
00:43:54,599 --> 00:43:56,568
On the fifth count,
776
00:43:56,601 --> 00:43:58,399
promoting a suicide attempt,
777
00:43:58,436 --> 00:44:01,031
how does the jury
find? Not guilty.
778
00:44:01,072 --> 00:44:04,839
On the sixth count, reckless
endangerment in the second degree
779
00:44:04,876 --> 00:44:06,572
how does the jury find?
780
00:44:06,611 --> 00:44:08,603
Guilty.
781
00:44:18,556 --> 00:44:20,752
I'll catch up with you.
782
00:44:20,791 --> 00:44:22,885
Adam: Some people
aren't gonna be happy.
783
00:44:22,927 --> 00:44:25,021
Depends on what you
want... Vengeance or justice.
784
00:44:25,062 --> 00:44:27,361
Curry: Stone.
785
00:44:27,398 --> 00:44:29,833
Did you really think that
I was guilty of murder?
786
00:44:29,867 --> 00:44:32,598
We bring the charge when
they should be brought
787
00:44:32,637 --> 00:44:34,902
and let the people decide.
788
00:44:34,939 --> 00:44:37,704
I may not have a
very long life left
789
00:44:37,742 --> 00:44:39,711
but it is my life.
790
00:44:39,744 --> 00:44:41,372
This wasn't a prosecution,
791
00:44:41,412 --> 00:44:43,347
this was a warning, wasn't it?
792
00:44:43,381 --> 00:44:45,816
To anybody else thinking
about a mercy killing.
793
00:44:45,850 --> 00:44:48,115
What gave you
the right to use me?
794
00:44:48,152 --> 00:44:50,553
Unfortunately, you did.
795
00:44:50,588 --> 00:44:52,784
Not once, not twice,
but three times.
796
00:44:54,959 --> 00:44:57,326
Thanks, Adam.
797
00:45:00,198 --> 00:45:02,633
DeBakey: After all
that, misdemeanor.
798
00:45:02,667 --> 00:45:04,636
Six months suspended
with probation.
799
00:45:04,669 --> 00:45:06,831
No judge will put
Jack Curry in jail.
800
00:45:08,739 --> 00:45:10,867
If you'd gone only
for manslaughter one,
801
00:45:10,908 --> 00:45:13,139
the jury probably would
have found him guilty
802
00:45:13,177 --> 00:45:14,702
and he'd have done time.
803
00:45:16,948 --> 00:45:20,578
I wonder who told a
secretary in your office
804
00:45:20,618 --> 00:45:23,611
to call me about your
conversation with Logan.
805
00:45:23,654 --> 00:45:25,885
I'll have to look into that.
