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 --> 00:00:14,278
These are their stories.
6
00:00:52,052 --> 00:00:54,021
Announcer: Next
stop, 14th Street.
7
00:00:54,054 --> 00:00:55,682
Change for the uptown local.
8
00:02:07,327 --> 00:02:10,092
Announcer: Next
stop, 23rd Street.
9
00:02:20,507 --> 00:02:21,975
Let me through!
10
00:02:25,045 --> 00:02:26,980
Out of the way! Come on!
11
00:02:34,321 --> 00:02:35,755
Cop: Come on, come on!
12
00:02:48,035 --> 00:02:51,164
Station 45? We have a
shooting in car number seven.
13
00:04:21,394 --> 00:04:23,329
I heard there was two.
14
00:04:23,363 --> 00:04:25,127
One's still down there.
15
00:04:25,165 --> 00:04:28,158
They got two detectives
coming down right now.
16
00:04:32,172 --> 00:04:34,038
Patrolman: How
you doing, fellas?
17
00:04:41,748 --> 00:04:43,580
Where are we going, Joe?
18
00:04:43,617 --> 00:04:45,108
He's right over there.
19
00:04:50,190 --> 00:04:52,216
Looks like we're in here.
20
00:04:59,833 --> 00:05:01,699
How's this one?
21
00:05:01,735 --> 00:05:04,432
He's okay. Guy doesn't
look so good to me.
22
00:05:04,471 --> 00:05:06,531
You're right, he'd
look better dead...
23
00:05:06,573 --> 00:05:09,270
One less jerk
with a screwdriver.
24
00:05:09,309 --> 00:05:12,108
You see the shooter?
25
00:05:12,145 --> 00:05:14,080
I did.
26
00:05:14,114 --> 00:05:16,083
Could you describe him for me?
27
00:05:16,116 --> 00:05:17,277
Her.
28
00:05:17,317 --> 00:05:19,149
Her?
29
00:05:19,186 --> 00:05:21,485
What did she look like?
30
00:05:21,521 --> 00:05:23,854
A ballerina.
31
00:05:23,890 --> 00:05:25,381
A ballerina?
32
00:05:25,425 --> 00:05:27,291
Oh, yeah.
33
00:05:28,829 --> 00:05:30,855
Talk about your
"nutcracker," huh?
34
00:05:39,840 --> 00:05:41,809
You Jones?
35
00:05:43,043 --> 00:05:45,137
How you feeling?
36
00:05:45,178 --> 00:05:46,942
I didn't do nothing.
37
00:05:46,980 --> 00:05:50,178
Of course you didn't, Michael...
you're a newborn babe.
38
00:05:50,217 --> 00:05:53,244
What you want with me?
Your speedy recovery,
39
00:05:53,286 --> 00:05:55,517
so you might have a
happy productive life.
40
00:05:55,555 --> 00:05:57,683
Actually...
41
00:05:58,692 --> 00:06:00,820
we're on your side, Michael.
42
00:06:00,861 --> 00:06:03,057
Why'd she shoot you?
43
00:06:03,096 --> 00:06:05,224
I don't know, man.
44
00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:10,029
The chick must be
going crazy or something.
45
00:06:10,070 --> 00:06:12,403
What did Darnell do, then?
46
00:06:12,439 --> 00:06:13,771
Nothing.
47
00:06:13,807 --> 00:06:15,708
Nothing?
48
00:06:15,742 --> 00:06:17,904
We heard he was coming
onto her pretty strong.
49
00:06:17,944 --> 00:06:20,812
Whoever told you that is lying.
50
00:06:20,847 --> 00:06:23,476
My partner asked
her for some apple...
51
00:06:23,516 --> 00:06:25,747
and she shot him.
52
00:06:25,785 --> 00:06:26,980
It's that simple.
53
00:06:27,020 --> 00:06:29,649
Asked, or demanded?
54
00:06:29,689 --> 00:06:31,658
Asked.
55
00:06:31,691 --> 00:06:34,490
Besides, why'd
she shoot me, huh?
56
00:06:34,527 --> 00:06:36,826
I didn't do a damn thing to her.
57
00:06:36,863 --> 00:06:39,958
I was just sitting down
doing nothing, man.
58
00:06:42,502 --> 00:06:45,734
Listen, Michael,
now listen real good.
59
00:06:45,772 --> 00:06:49,539
If the lady popped you two
'cause you were "mau-mauing" her,
60
00:06:49,576 --> 00:06:51,602
and they put her on trial,
61
00:06:51,645 --> 00:06:53,238
I'll testify for her.
62
00:06:53,280 --> 00:06:55,146
But if you're
telling the truth...
63
00:06:55,181 --> 00:06:57,673
If you're telling the truth
I'll haul her into that court
64
00:06:57,717 --> 00:07:00,312
and nail her for
attempted murder.
65
00:07:00,353 --> 00:07:03,551
I am telling the truth.
66
00:07:04,791 --> 00:07:08,091
Like I got a real good
chance of proving it.
67
00:07:14,401 --> 00:07:16,802
Got a bleeder here.
Hemostat. Here you go.
68
00:07:16,836 --> 00:07:18,714
Tie him off. Come on,
come on. Get the lead out.
69
00:07:18,738 --> 00:07:19,967
Doctor: What's the hurry?
70
00:07:20,006 --> 00:07:22,100
This guy won't be
running a marathon.
71
00:07:22,142 --> 00:07:24,008
Nurse: Can you see all right?
72
00:07:25,946 --> 00:07:27,005
Wrap it up.
73
00:07:32,986 --> 00:07:34,511
Cragen: You recover a slug?
74
00:07:34,554 --> 00:07:37,854
Two. One in the subway,
one in Chenault's lower back.
75
00:07:37,891 --> 00:07:40,360
Cragen: That's a start.
Any leads on the gunman?
76
00:07:40,393 --> 00:07:41,827
Gunwoman.
77
00:07:43,029 --> 00:07:44,861
Gunperson.
78
00:07:44,898 --> 00:07:46,366
A lot of phone calls.
79
00:07:46,399 --> 00:07:47,867
Uh-huh. Who from?
80
00:07:47,901 --> 00:07:50,393
Bunch of psycho
sisters. Each one...
81
00:07:50,437 --> 00:07:52,065
claiming to be the
"Avenging Angel."
82
00:07:52,105 --> 00:07:53,971
Oh great, that is great.
83
00:07:54,007 --> 00:07:56,704
Who's calling her that?
It's already on the radio.
84
00:07:56,743 --> 00:07:58,721
Why do you think we're
getting all these volunteers?
85
00:07:58,745 --> 00:08:00,213
Maybe they can relate to her.
86
00:08:00,246 --> 00:08:02,525
They'd like to peddle their
life story to the highest bidder.
87
00:08:02,549 --> 00:08:04,327
I don't want the press
going into a feeding frenzy.
88
00:08:04,351 --> 00:08:08,186
You mean, like, "Babe
to punks: Drop dead"?
89
00:08:08,221 --> 00:08:09,553
Maybe we should deputize her.
90
00:08:09,589 --> 00:08:11,353
Just find her.
91
00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:15,758
Woman: Positive...
he was grinding himself
92
00:08:15,795 --> 00:08:17,286
right in that woman's face.
93
00:08:17,330 --> 00:08:19,322
What about the other
one? He was just as bad,
94
00:08:19,366 --> 00:08:21,926
but I kept my attention on the
one who was pushing on her.
95
00:08:21,968 --> 00:08:24,938
Are you willing to testify in
court to what you've told us?
96
00:08:24,971 --> 00:08:26,735
Of course.
97
00:08:26,773 --> 00:08:30,437
A lot of people develop
short-term memory loss these days.
98
00:08:30,477 --> 00:08:32,207
I'm not afraid of
punks like that.
99
00:08:32,245 --> 00:08:34,612
I dealt with worse
when I taught fifth grade.
100
00:08:34,647 --> 00:08:36,809
Mrs. Hastings,
101
00:08:38,518 --> 00:08:39,952
the woman who did the shooting,
102
00:08:39,986 --> 00:08:42,148
she's the one that
we're looking for.
103
00:08:42,188 --> 00:08:44,419
Well, you shouldn't
be. When you find her
104
00:08:44,457 --> 00:08:46,653
I hope she gets a medal.
105
00:08:49,295 --> 00:08:53,198
"Midtown Dance Club."
I think that's what it was.
106
00:08:53,233 --> 00:08:55,566
"Manhattan."
107
00:08:55,602 --> 00:08:57,594
You have good eyes.
You got to pay attention...
108
00:08:57,637 --> 00:09:00,129
Chaz... That's how
come I seen the ice pick.
109
00:09:00,173 --> 00:09:02,438
Ice pick? What ice pick?
110
00:09:02,475 --> 00:09:04,637
The one with the Yankees cap.
111
00:09:04,677 --> 00:09:06,475
Look, I'm a Mets fan,
I hate the Yankees,
112
00:09:06,513 --> 00:09:09,142
and he's waving an ice pick.
I'm thinking, "What's this for?
113
00:09:09,182 --> 00:09:11,617
It's all automatic
ice cubes now."
114
00:09:11,651 --> 00:09:13,677
We heard it was a screwdriver.
115
00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:16,918
I seen what I seen.
116
00:09:18,958 --> 00:09:22,053
You really think we
like these two dirtbags?
117
00:09:22,095 --> 00:09:23,495
So what's your problem?
118
00:09:23,530 --> 00:09:26,830
Shooting people you
don't like is a big problem.
119
00:09:26,866 --> 00:09:29,097
Unless you're
defending your own self.
120
00:09:29,135 --> 00:09:32,401
Are you saying it was
self-defense? I seen what I seen.
121
00:09:37,544 --> 00:09:40,742
Why do I get the feeling
we're on the wrong side here?
122
00:09:40,780 --> 00:09:42,442
'Cause you're
thinking like a civilian.
123
00:09:42,482 --> 00:09:45,077
Oh yeah, right. I
should've known better.
124
00:09:45,118 --> 00:09:46,552
Hey, don't worry, Max,
125
00:09:46,586 --> 00:09:48,748
next time I'll be a
good little German.
126
00:09:48,788 --> 00:09:50,689
You got a wise mouth.
127
00:09:50,723 --> 00:09:51,986
Oh yeah? Yeah.
128
00:09:52,025 --> 00:09:54,756
What, you want every fruitcake
on the BMT packing six on his hip?
129
00:09:54,794 --> 00:09:56,763
'Course I don't want
that, I just think those...
130
00:09:56,796 --> 00:09:58,230
Don't think!
131
00:09:58,264 --> 00:10:00,130
The city ain't a free-fire zone.
132
00:10:02,168 --> 00:10:03,602
Gimme a...
133
00:10:03,636 --> 00:10:05,764
turn, turn,
134
00:10:05,805 --> 00:10:08,138
and port de bras.
135
00:10:09,442 --> 00:10:11,638
Okay, let's take five.
136
00:10:13,046 --> 00:10:14,844
Miss Putterman? Mm-hmm.
137
00:10:14,881 --> 00:10:16,873
I'm Detective Logan.
I called you before.
138
00:10:16,916 --> 00:10:19,351
Yes, I told you, it
sounds like Laura di Biasi.
139
00:10:19,385 --> 00:10:20,512
You got her address?
140
00:10:20,553 --> 00:10:23,045
What do I look
like, a phone book?
141
00:10:23,089 --> 00:10:24,751
In Manhattan.
142
00:10:24,791 --> 00:10:27,226
Okay, everybody,
let's take it again.
143
00:10:27,260 --> 00:10:29,695
Logan: Yes, I am aware...
144
00:10:29,729 --> 00:10:31,789
Okay, I'm aware it's unlisted.
145
00:10:31,831 --> 00:10:34,801
I told you for the 10th
time, I'm a police officer.
146
00:10:34,834 --> 00:10:37,269
Let's get this straight...
Detective Mike Logan,
147
00:10:37,303 --> 00:10:39,431
Badge number nine...
148
00:10:39,472 --> 00:10:41,964
Warrant, huh? Warrant
this, lady, all right?
149
00:10:42,008 --> 00:10:44,239
I need a warrant, it's going
to take me three hours.
150
00:10:44,277 --> 00:10:46,303
Now you listen to
me. You listen to me!
151
00:10:47,714 --> 00:10:49,945
Hold on.
152
00:10:52,085 --> 00:10:55,783
Hi. To whom am I
speaking, please?
153
00:10:57,824 --> 00:10:59,918
Hello, Miss Schweder,
154
00:10:59,959 --> 00:11:02,019
this is Sergeant Greevey.
155
00:11:02,061 --> 00:11:04,530
Could you connect me with
your central office supervisor?
156
00:11:04,564 --> 00:11:06,590
Maybe we can
straighten some of this out.
157
00:11:08,234 --> 00:11:10,430
Thank you so much.
158
00:11:10,470 --> 00:11:12,769
Max: Chenault's got
priors up the ying-yang.
159
00:11:12,805 --> 00:11:15,274
Nothing on Jones. Nothing?
160
00:11:15,308 --> 00:11:19,040
Computer came up with 12
felons named "Michael Jones,"
161
00:11:19,078 --> 00:11:21,445
"Michael J., Michael Ray"...
162
00:11:21,481 --> 00:11:23,541
"Michael T."
163
00:11:23,583 --> 00:11:25,711
I hate walk-ups.
164
00:11:25,752 --> 00:11:27,550
No positive make on our own
165
00:11:27,587 --> 00:11:29,988
"Michael
no-middle-initial Jones."
166
00:11:30,023 --> 00:11:32,117
Zippo.
167
00:11:32,158 --> 00:11:34,525
Nobody home...
168
00:11:34,561 --> 00:11:36,291
Down the stairs.
169
00:11:39,666 --> 00:11:41,658
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
170
00:11:46,039 --> 00:11:48,531
Ahem! Oh!
171
00:11:48,575 --> 00:11:51,170
Excuse me. It's all right,
ma'am. We're the police.
172
00:11:51,211 --> 00:11:53,646
Do you know where the
lady who lives there is?
173
00:11:53,680 --> 00:11:55,581
Miss di Biasi?
174
00:11:55,615 --> 00:11:57,743
She works at
Murray Hill Hospital.
175
00:11:57,784 --> 00:11:59,461
Man: I'm the Chief
Administrator in this place,
176
00:11:59,485 --> 00:12:00,851
and I've told you twice...
177
00:12:00,887 --> 00:12:03,584
You don't discuss personnel.
178
00:12:03,623 --> 00:12:06,650
I'm telling you, I'm not
interested in a discussion!
179
00:12:06,693 --> 00:12:08,992
I want to know where she is!
180
00:12:14,334 --> 00:12:16,394
She's working in Radiology.
181
00:12:18,671 --> 00:12:20,264
Miss di Biasi?
182
00:12:20,306 --> 00:12:23,140
Sergeant Greevey,
Detective Logan.
183
00:12:23,176 --> 00:12:25,509
We'd like to ask
you a few questions.
184
00:12:27,013 --> 00:12:30,279
Yeah, I imagine you would.
185
00:12:31,851 --> 00:12:33,183
I felt threatened.
186
00:12:33,219 --> 00:12:35,711
Max: It's a threatening city.
187
00:12:35,755 --> 00:12:38,691
I felt I had to defend
myself. Is that a crime?
188
00:12:38,725 --> 00:12:40,523
That's what we're
trying to determine.
189
00:12:40,560 --> 00:12:43,291
Why'd you run?
190
00:12:43,329 --> 00:12:45,389
Because I was freaked out.
191
00:12:45,431 --> 00:12:47,866
Okay, we can appreciate that,
192
00:12:49,102 --> 00:12:50,832
but where'd you get the gun?
193
00:12:50,870 --> 00:12:52,736
Somebody gave it to
me. Logan: Boyfriend?
194
00:12:52,772 --> 00:12:55,469
Somebody. I don't
know, it was years ago.
195
00:12:55,508 --> 00:12:57,500
Meaning it's
probably unlicensed.
196
00:13:01,481 --> 00:13:04,212
Logan: Okay...
197
00:13:04,250 --> 00:13:05,616
what did you do with it?
198
00:13:05,652 --> 00:13:07,780
I guess I threw it. "Guess"?
199
00:13:07,820 --> 00:13:10,289
I dropped it down
there. In the subway?
200
00:13:10,323 --> 00:13:11,951
Yeah.
201
00:13:11,991 --> 00:13:15,519
Listen, are you sure you
don't want to call your lawyer?
202
00:13:15,561 --> 00:13:17,393
My lawyer?
203
00:13:17,430 --> 00:13:20,764
Do I look like I could afford
to have a personal lawyer?
204
00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:23,998
Anyway, I don't need one. I
haven't done anything wrong.
205
00:13:24,037 --> 00:13:26,063
I wouldn't count on that.
206
00:13:33,079 --> 00:13:36,709
Are you arresting me?
207
00:13:39,185 --> 00:13:41,484
Not at the present time.
208
00:13:41,521 --> 00:13:43,854
But if we do arrest you,
209
00:13:43,890 --> 00:13:47,088
a lawyer will be provided
for you at no cost.
210
00:13:55,101 --> 00:13:57,127
Why are we busting her chops?
211
00:13:57,170 --> 00:13:58,399
That the way you see it?
212
00:13:58,438 --> 00:14:00,236
Two kids jump her on the subway,
213
00:14:00,273 --> 00:14:02,208
she defends herself, okay?
214
00:14:02,241 --> 00:14:03,719
We're not talking about
"Squeaky" Fromme here.
215
00:14:03,743 --> 00:14:05,541
We don't know that. We don't?
216
00:14:05,578 --> 00:14:08,571
Look, she did the shooting,
that makes her the perp.
217
00:14:08,614 --> 00:14:10,515
That's all I know.
218
00:14:10,550 --> 00:14:12,815
What, you want to
do her or something?
219
00:14:12,852 --> 00:14:14,821
Hey, hey...
220
00:14:14,854 --> 00:14:16,686
It's all that simple, huh?
221
00:14:16,723 --> 00:14:18,100
When it comes to
the law, it better be.
222
00:14:18,124 --> 00:14:19,888
Jones doesn't
even have a record.
223
00:14:19,926 --> 00:14:21,792
He say he was sitting
down when she shot him.
224
00:14:21,828 --> 00:14:25,424
Yeah, and he's such an
innocent-looking guy, Max.
225
00:14:25,465 --> 00:14:27,525
Oh, that's terrific.
226
00:14:27,567 --> 00:14:30,867
"You're under arrest
for looking guilty."
227
00:14:30,903 --> 00:14:32,496
That's a cheap shot.
228
00:14:32,538 --> 00:14:35,235
The hell it is. That kind of
thinking, you can't do the job.
229
00:14:35,274 --> 00:14:37,709
When it comes to the
law, everybody's the same.
230
00:14:37,744 --> 00:14:40,441
That's when it works...
When everybody's the same.
231
00:14:40,480 --> 00:14:42,949
It's like football...
You hold somebody,
232
00:14:42,982 --> 00:14:44,473
you get caught, it's a penalty.
233
00:14:44,517 --> 00:14:46,145
Doesn't matter
whether you're Billy Sims
234
00:14:46,185 --> 00:14:48,245
or some rookie for
East Podunk State.
235
00:14:53,192 --> 00:14:55,491
Max: She admitted that
she did the shooting...
236
00:14:55,528 --> 00:14:57,861
It's on videotape.
237
00:14:57,897 --> 00:15:01,061
She also says, "Yes, I wanted
to kill them, to hurt them."
238
00:15:01,100 --> 00:15:03,695
Isn't that enough? You want
to arrest her on the Sullivan?
239
00:15:03,736 --> 00:15:06,501
A gun charge is pretty
lame, don't you think?
240
00:15:06,539 --> 00:15:08,337
It's still mandatory jail time.
241
00:15:08,374 --> 00:15:12,641
She fired into a crowded
subway car, for God's sakes!
242
00:15:12,678 --> 00:15:14,056
You want to go for
attempted murder,
243
00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:15,958
you're going to need a formal
statement from the other vic...
244
00:15:15,982 --> 00:15:17,075
Mr. Chenois.
245
00:15:19,152 --> 00:15:22,452
That's Chenault.
Darnell Chenault.
246
00:15:22,488 --> 00:15:24,218
Whatever.
247
00:15:26,993 --> 00:15:30,395
Chenault's been
upgraded. Room 322.
248
00:15:30,430 --> 00:15:33,889
Jones? Jones is in
324, but you better hurry.
249
00:15:33,933 --> 00:15:35,993
Excuse me, ma'am.
250
00:15:37,203 --> 00:15:39,468
Dr. Garcia, pick
up your messages...
251
00:15:39,505 --> 00:15:41,371
Look here.
252
00:15:43,142 --> 00:15:44,701
Michael Jones?
253
00:15:44,744 --> 00:15:46,713
Used to be.
254
00:15:48,014 --> 00:15:49,880
Man: I don't want
a shot, sweetheart,
255
00:15:49,916 --> 00:15:51,544
I want to get out
of this damn bed.
256
00:15:51,584 --> 00:15:53,951
Nurse: That's not going to
happen for a while, Darnell.
257
00:15:53,986 --> 00:15:55,454
So just take it easy.
258
00:15:55,488 --> 00:15:57,616
Darnell: Take it
easy? Hey, baby,
259
00:15:57,657 --> 00:16:00,252
give me some decent drugs
if you want me to take it easy.
260
00:16:00,293 --> 00:16:02,262
Nicely, Darnell, nicely.
261
00:16:02,295 --> 00:16:04,093
What are you so upset about?
262
00:16:04,130 --> 00:16:06,827
Man, they say I'm going
to be paralyzed, man.
263
00:16:06,866 --> 00:16:10,530
Dumb mothers give me
freaking aspirin with codeine.
264
00:16:12,672 --> 00:16:14,937
You a new specialist?
265
00:16:14,974 --> 00:16:17,910
Sergeant Greevey,
Detective Logan.
266
00:16:17,944 --> 00:16:20,106
Yeah, Darnell,
just the facts, okay?
267
00:16:20,146 --> 00:16:22,615
The facts is, why'd
the bitch shoot me?!
268
00:16:22,648 --> 00:16:24,310
I didn't do nothing.
269
00:16:24,350 --> 00:16:26,046
Stone: Reckless endangerment?
270
00:16:26,085 --> 00:16:29,180
That tells the jury the
girl was a little upset,
271
00:16:29,222 --> 00:16:32,715
but so long as no innocent
bystanders were hit, there's no problem.
272
00:16:32,758 --> 00:16:34,624
There's something
to that, isn't there?
273
00:16:34,660 --> 00:16:36,561
I got a subway
full of eyewitnesses
274
00:16:36,596 --> 00:16:38,189
who claims they
saw one of the victims
275
00:16:38,231 --> 00:16:39,893
accost Miss di
Biasi... Threaten her.
276
00:16:39,932 --> 00:16:42,299
With his hand on his
crotch? With a screwdriver!
277
00:16:42,335 --> 00:16:44,201
Or with an ice-pick,
or a pick axe.
278
00:16:44,237 --> 00:16:45,796
It's funny what the
eye can witness.
279
00:16:45,838 --> 00:16:47,397
Attempted homicide.
280
00:16:47,440 --> 00:16:49,306
I know we're going to prosecute,
281
00:16:49,342 --> 00:16:50,652
but do we have to
hang her out to dry?
282
00:16:50,676 --> 00:16:52,804
Why, so every
loophead can blast away
283
00:16:52,845 --> 00:16:54,473
when someone
asks him for the time?
284
00:16:54,514 --> 00:16:56,449
Yeah, I forgot, you
guys in the DA's office
285
00:16:56,482 --> 00:16:58,474
are a regular
bunch of "Carnacs."
286
00:16:58,518 --> 00:17:00,487
You ask me, the young
gentlemen were not asking
287
00:17:00,520 --> 00:17:01,988
for the time of day.
288
00:17:04,557 --> 00:17:07,026
Let us suppose, just
for the sake of argument,
289
00:17:07,059 --> 00:17:10,427
that Miss di Biasi has had
a really horrendous day,
290
00:17:10,463 --> 00:17:12,796
and someone jokingly
says, "Stick 'em up."
291
00:17:12,832 --> 00:17:16,530
She kills them. It's
not self-defense, right?
292
00:17:16,569 --> 00:17:19,198
So she's liable for
negligent homicide,
293
00:17:19,238 --> 00:17:20,638
only in this case...
294
00:17:20,673 --> 00:17:22,505
in this case the guy didn't die.
295
00:17:24,010 --> 00:17:26,445
Okay, so we go for
attempted murder,
296
00:17:26,479 --> 00:17:28,175
if you're sure you
can make it stick.
297
00:17:28,214 --> 00:17:29,910
You'd better hope I can.
298
00:17:29,949 --> 00:17:32,214
She walks, New
York is Dodge City.
299
00:17:32,251 --> 00:17:34,618
May I make a
suggestion? By all means.
300
00:17:34,654 --> 00:17:36,145
Skip the "legal beagling"
301
00:17:36,188 --> 00:17:38,248
and go with plain
vanilla murder two.
302
00:17:38,291 --> 00:17:40,351
The coroner is determining
303
00:17:40,393 --> 00:17:42,385
the COD on Mr. Jones
304
00:17:42,428 --> 00:17:45,227
even as we speak.
305
00:17:45,264 --> 00:17:47,631
Murder two?
306
00:17:47,667 --> 00:17:49,863
Bring her in.
307
00:17:54,140 --> 00:17:55,665
Wait a sec, huh?
308
00:18:05,551 --> 00:18:07,713
Ooh.
309
00:18:13,893 --> 00:18:15,555
Sergeant Greevey.
310
00:18:19,432 --> 00:18:21,333
Hold on.
311
00:18:23,135 --> 00:18:25,195
Relax, relax.
312
00:18:27,139 --> 00:18:29,870
Just tell me what
happened, honey.
313
00:18:37,650 --> 00:18:40,643
No... well, why worry
about it then, huh?
314
00:18:41,654 --> 00:18:44,818
Yeah, of course.
315
00:18:44,857 --> 00:18:47,952
We'll talk about it
later tonight, okay?
316
00:18:47,994 --> 00:18:51,260
I'll get home as soon
as possibly can, okay?
317
00:18:52,498 --> 00:18:55,093
Yeah, me too.
318
00:18:58,504 --> 00:18:59,528
What?
319
00:18:59,572 --> 00:19:02,269
It's nothing.
320
00:19:03,342 --> 00:19:05,811
Oh, I thought it
might've been something.
321
00:19:08,481 --> 00:19:10,382
Eileen got roughed up at school.
322
00:19:10,416 --> 00:19:13,818
She hurt? No, you
know, just some bruises.
323
00:19:15,955 --> 00:19:17,446
Is that all?
324
00:19:18,791 --> 00:19:20,953
Yeah.
325
00:19:20,993 --> 00:19:23,189
Yeah, that's all.
326
00:19:25,564 --> 00:19:27,624
Come on, let's wrap this up.
327
00:19:28,634 --> 00:19:30,296
Who did it?
328
00:19:30,336 --> 00:19:32,202
Three guys from
her basketball team.
329
00:19:32,238 --> 00:19:35,697
She ignored them so they
slammed her up against the lockers.
330
00:19:35,741 --> 00:19:37,266
Bastards.
331
00:19:37,309 --> 00:19:39,471
I wonder if Chenault
and Jones were any good.
332
00:19:39,512 --> 00:19:41,276
At what?
333
00:19:41,313 --> 00:19:43,646
Basketball.
334
00:19:46,585 --> 00:19:49,282
Don't touch me with that thing.
335
00:19:50,556 --> 00:19:52,889
Max: Did you re-Miranda-ize her?
336
00:19:52,925 --> 00:19:54,416
Yeah, on the way in.
337
00:19:54,460 --> 00:19:57,020
Where's my lawyer?
Why isn't she here yet?
338
00:19:59,899 --> 00:20:02,630
The Public Defenders
have a heavy caseload.
339
00:20:02,668 --> 00:20:04,136
She told me she'd be here.
340
00:20:04,170 --> 00:20:05,638
Maybe she's stuck in traffic.
341
00:20:05,671 --> 00:20:07,765
Have a seat.
342
00:20:13,012 --> 00:20:15,345
I really...
343
00:20:15,381 --> 00:20:16,974
want a lawyer.
344
00:20:17,016 --> 00:20:18,644
I don't want to talk to you.
345
00:20:20,186 --> 00:20:22,178
You understand, Miss di Biasi,
346
00:20:22,221 --> 00:20:25,988
that you are charged
with negligent homicide?
347
00:20:26,025 --> 00:20:28,426
And when you appear
before the judge
348
00:20:28,461 --> 00:20:30,896
he'll determine
what the bail will be,
349
00:20:30,930 --> 00:20:33,263
if the court decides
that you're eligible.
350
00:20:33,299 --> 00:20:34,824
Why is this woman handcuffed?
351
00:20:34,867 --> 00:20:37,632
Sorry, there was an
accident on the FDR.
352
00:20:37,670 --> 00:20:39,229
You haven't said
anything, I trust?
353
00:20:39,271 --> 00:20:41,683
"Trust" and "lawyer," that's a
pair of words that don't match.
354
00:20:41,707 --> 00:20:43,539
How about "cop"
and "IQ over 90"?
355
00:20:43,576 --> 00:20:46,171
Shambala Green,
I'm Miss di Biasi's PD.
356
00:20:46,212 --> 00:20:48,044
So I gathered.
357
00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:51,312
And I ask again, why
is she handcuffed?
358
00:20:51,350 --> 00:20:53,376
Because she's an accused killer.
359
00:20:53,419 --> 00:20:55,115
Look, Ms. Green,
360
00:20:55,154 --> 00:20:57,680
why don't you save your
attitude for the courtroom?
361
00:21:07,399 --> 00:21:09,368
Do you have a toothbrush?
362
00:21:09,401 --> 00:21:12,701
'Cause we have to take
you over to the women's side
363
00:21:12,738 --> 00:21:14,730
until you're arraigned.
364
00:21:27,186 --> 00:21:28,779
Here, Counselor,
365
00:21:28,821 --> 00:21:31,017
do something useful.
366
00:21:38,264 --> 00:21:41,393
What nuance? I spelled it
out for them in black and white.
367
00:21:41,433 --> 00:21:43,993
Adam: Yup, and
therein lies the rub.
368
00:21:44,036 --> 00:21:46,301
What, the color angle?
369
00:21:46,338 --> 00:21:49,308
Forget it, Adam,
this isn't Selma.
370
00:21:49,341 --> 00:21:52,072
Neither was Howard Beach, and
you know what happened there.
371
00:21:52,111 --> 00:21:54,603
You read "The Times" poll...
Blacks favor tougher sentences
372
00:21:54,647 --> 00:21:56,047
for street crime then whites do.
373
00:21:56,081 --> 00:21:58,107
Very good.
374
00:21:58,150 --> 00:22:01,211
We've still got to worry
about the perception of racism.
375
00:22:01,253 --> 00:22:02,949
Did she think these
guys were a threat
376
00:22:02,988 --> 00:22:04,547
because they
were street toughs...
377
00:22:04,590 --> 00:22:06,354
or because they were black?
378
00:22:06,392 --> 00:22:09,294
I can't answer that. All I
know is that self-defense
379
00:22:09,328 --> 00:22:11,957
requires that the response be
in direct proportion to the threat.
380
00:22:11,997 --> 00:22:14,592
The threat as she
reasonably perceives it.
381
00:22:14,633 --> 00:22:18,229
If she thinks she
is about to be raped
382
00:22:18,270 --> 00:22:21,001
can she kill her attacker?
383
00:22:21,040 --> 00:22:24,568
The law says yes, absolutely.
384
00:22:24,610 --> 00:22:26,511
And what if her
perception is wrong?
385
00:22:26,545 --> 00:22:29,538
If we let her go, do you realize
what we are unleashing in this city?
386
00:22:29,582 --> 00:22:32,245
There's always the
weapons charge.
387
00:22:33,319 --> 00:22:34,981
You can't be serious.
388
00:22:35,020 --> 00:22:37,717
If we don't prosecute, we're
creating a city of vigilantes.
389
00:22:37,756 --> 00:22:39,019
A man is dead.
390
00:22:39,058 --> 00:22:42,392
I don't need a summation.
Now what do you want?
391
00:22:42,428 --> 00:22:44,829
Permission to file a
murder indictment?
392
00:22:44,864 --> 00:22:46,628
You want to ask for deniability?
393
00:22:46,665 --> 00:22:49,931
I told you to file? Since
when do I dictate to you?
394
00:22:49,969 --> 00:22:51,528
You don't have a problem?
395
00:22:51,570 --> 00:22:54,563
It's not my problem to have.
396
00:22:56,942 --> 00:22:58,410
Robinette: No, I'm
not a policeman.
397
00:22:58,444 --> 00:23:00,055
I work for the District
Attorney's office.
398
00:23:00,079 --> 00:23:01,775
What do you want to know?
399
00:23:01,814 --> 00:23:04,010
Is Miss di Biasi an RN?
400
00:23:04,049 --> 00:23:06,644
No, a technician. She
used to be a dancer.
401
00:23:06,685 --> 00:23:07,948
She told you that?
402
00:23:07,987 --> 00:23:10,252
We're friends. She
told me about it.
403
00:23:10,289 --> 00:23:12,815
She was performing with
a modern dance company.
404
00:23:12,858 --> 00:23:14,986
I don't know if she
made a living at it.
405
00:23:15,027 --> 00:23:16,655
But you do know what happened?
406
00:23:16,695 --> 00:23:18,425
She was attacked...
407
00:23:18,464 --> 00:23:21,730
Down in the subway, by
three youthful offenders.
408
00:23:21,767 --> 00:23:24,464
After she recovered,
she came to work here.
409
00:23:25,471 --> 00:23:27,303
And what was her
reaction to the attack?
410
00:23:27,339 --> 00:23:29,535
Same as anybody's.
411
00:23:29,575 --> 00:23:32,409
She was fearful,
resentful of all the little...
412
00:23:33,946 --> 00:23:35,642
"Little" what?
413
00:23:38,083 --> 00:23:40,075
"Little black bastards"?
414
00:23:42,554 --> 00:23:44,819
You see some black
teenagers on the train,
415
00:23:44,857 --> 00:23:46,468
are you automatically
afraid of them, Miss Maltese?
416
00:23:46,492 --> 00:23:48,927
Aren't you?
417
00:23:59,471 --> 00:24:02,270
Sometimes the stereotype fits.
418
00:24:03,642 --> 00:24:05,804
Long as the story's true.
419
00:24:05,844 --> 00:24:08,623
Cops have shot kids with screwdrivers
before. Why not a 90-pound woman?
420
00:24:08,647 --> 00:24:11,344
How threatened could she have
been? She sat down right next to them.
421
00:24:11,383 --> 00:24:13,113
She's got a right to sit
anywhere she wants.
422
00:24:13,152 --> 00:24:16,122
So do the other passengers, but they
moved away because it seemed prudent.
423
00:24:16,155 --> 00:24:19,557
Maybe she was tired of getting
moved around by the mugging class.
424
00:24:19,591 --> 00:24:21,719
"The mugging class"?
425
00:24:21,760 --> 00:24:23,319
What's that about?
426
00:24:23,362 --> 00:24:25,695
You're an Assistant
District Attorney.
427
00:24:25,731 --> 00:24:28,394
You work for the people.
428
00:24:28,434 --> 00:24:31,302
We follow the letter
of the law here.
429
00:24:31,337 --> 00:24:33,829
Go talk to Chenault.
430
00:24:40,746 --> 00:24:42,681
My man tried...
431
00:24:42,715 --> 00:24:44,980
Scared her,
432
00:24:45,017 --> 00:24:47,350
maybe with a screwdriver,
433
00:24:48,354 --> 00:24:51,290
but we was just sitting there.
434
00:24:51,323 --> 00:24:53,258
Cut the crap, Darnell,
you weren't sitting,
435
00:24:53,292 --> 00:24:55,693
you were standing up in
her face... everybody says so.
436
00:24:55,728 --> 00:24:57,822
I'm sitting here now, ain't I?
437
00:24:57,863 --> 00:25:00,924
I'm going to be sitting
for the rest of my life.
438
00:25:01,033 --> 00:25:02,510
So maybe you should
lighten up on the 'tude.
439
00:25:02,534 --> 00:25:05,003
Nobody likes a
wise-ass in a wheelchair.
440
00:25:05,037 --> 00:25:07,802
Whose side you on, anyway?
441
00:25:09,808 --> 00:25:12,437
Nobody's.
442
00:25:12,478 --> 00:25:14,106
I just want the truth.
443
00:25:14,146 --> 00:25:16,047
And I want payback, man.
444
00:25:16,081 --> 00:25:18,880
Like I said, that's up to you.
445
00:25:20,819 --> 00:25:22,754
All right.
446
00:25:22,788 --> 00:25:25,883
All right... We had
the screwdrivers.
447
00:25:25,924 --> 00:25:28,484
We were going to rob some
lockers down at Grand Central.
448
00:25:28,527 --> 00:25:31,793
But we was never, ever,
threatening to nobody,
449
00:25:31,830 --> 00:25:34,390
especially no white... chick.
450
00:25:34,433 --> 00:25:36,678
You were unthreatening enough so
everybody was down the end of the train?
451
00:25:36,702 --> 00:25:40,366
Except her, man. She came
in and sat down right next to us.
452
00:25:40,406 --> 00:25:42,341
Now why you think that was, huh?
453
00:25:46,178 --> 00:25:49,876
Woman: Even with a court
order, it'll take three working days.
454
00:25:49,915 --> 00:25:52,976
I'm afraid I can't wait. The
wheels of justice are turning.
455
00:25:53,018 --> 00:25:54,850
Don't you guys
have your own files?
456
00:25:54,887 --> 00:25:56,685
Hey, you're the paper of record.
457
00:25:58,824 --> 00:26:02,124
Green: If this were a Greek
tragedy, I'd be guilty of hubris.
458
00:26:02,161 --> 00:26:05,529
Public sentiment on my
side, witnesses on my side,
459
00:26:05,564 --> 00:26:08,033
precedent on self-defense
going back to the days
460
00:26:08,067 --> 00:26:10,045
of knights bashing each
other over the head with...
461
00:26:10,069 --> 00:26:12,937
those whatchamacallit...
Those spiked balls...
462
00:26:12,971 --> 00:26:15,202
Maces? Maces.
463
00:26:15,240 --> 00:26:17,072
Thank you. See what I mean?
464
00:26:17,109 --> 00:26:18,668
Now I am trying not to gloat,
465
00:26:18,710 --> 00:26:21,771
but what have you got
on your side, Stone?
466
00:26:21,814 --> 00:26:24,409
Not very much, I agree.
467
00:26:24,450 --> 00:26:26,612
Only the New York penal law.
468
00:26:26,652 --> 00:26:29,781
I don't think we have to
discuss the Sullivan statute...
469
00:26:29,822 --> 00:26:32,417
Concealed weapons have
been illegal for the past 70 years.
470
00:26:32,458 --> 00:26:34,552
The code is also clear
when it comes to self-defense.
471
00:26:34,593 --> 00:26:36,459
I'm afraid you have
not convinced me
472
00:26:36,495 --> 00:26:38,123
that your client acted in a way
473
00:26:38,163 --> 00:26:41,156
proportional to imminent
attack. Oh, come on.
474
00:26:41,200 --> 00:26:43,778
The defendant must also act in
a way that is thwarting the attack,
475
00:26:43,802 --> 00:26:45,600
not inflicting grave
injury on the victim.
476
00:26:45,637 --> 00:26:47,606
Let's get it down to
single syllables, okay?
477
00:26:47,639 --> 00:26:49,540
The penal law
also clearly allows
478
00:26:49,575 --> 00:26:52,101
for the use of deadly
force to repel robbery,
479
00:26:52,144 --> 00:26:53,476
kidnapping, forcible sodomy
480
00:26:53,512 --> 00:26:56,573
and/or forcible rape.
481
00:26:56,615 --> 00:26:59,517
I don't see anything forcible
about it. He was only asking.
482
00:27:01,286 --> 00:27:05,348
What kind of piggish
attitude is that, Counselor?
483
00:27:05,390 --> 00:27:07,621
Are you suggesting
484
00:27:07,659 --> 00:27:10,629
that my client
was asking for it?
485
00:27:13,031 --> 00:27:15,967
Miss Green, this is
not a personal attack,
486
00:27:16,001 --> 00:27:17,629
nor an attack upon the species.
487
00:27:17,669 --> 00:27:19,831
The fact is, there may have
been some degree of threat,
488
00:27:19,872 --> 00:27:22,671
but where that becomes
attempted rape is a fine line.
489
00:27:22,708 --> 00:27:26,042
Which all too many women of
this city have been pushed across
490
00:27:26,078 --> 00:27:29,048
while they've been wondering,
"Is this really happening to me?"
491
00:27:29,081 --> 00:27:33,075
The law is our only defense
against the rapists and the shooters.
492
00:27:33,118 --> 00:27:35,417
People break it,
cops try to catch them,
493
00:27:35,454 --> 00:27:36,945
and I try to cook
them. It's my job.
494
00:27:36,989 --> 00:27:39,720
Sometimes I don't
like it, but it's all we got.
495
00:27:41,693 --> 00:27:43,559
Yeah.
496
00:27:44,663 --> 00:27:46,791
See you in court, Stone.
497
00:27:55,674 --> 00:27:59,634
Laura, D-I-B as in boy, I-A.
498
00:28:01,346 --> 00:28:04,077
"Letter to the editor"?
That's all you got?
499
00:28:04,116 --> 00:28:05,641
That's it.
500
00:28:05,684 --> 00:28:07,118
I owe you one.
501
00:28:07,152 --> 00:28:10,247
Robinette: "The police seemed
to treat this vicious attack
502
00:28:10,289 --> 00:28:12,849
as 'just one of those things.'
503
00:28:12,891 --> 00:28:14,917
The authorities don't
want decent people
504
00:28:14,960 --> 00:28:17,054
carrying weapons
to protect themselves.
505
00:28:17,095 --> 00:28:20,065
We agree to give up this
right on the assumption
506
00:28:20,098 --> 00:28:22,158
that the police will do
the protecting for us.
507
00:28:22,201 --> 00:28:24,033
Obviously this is
no longer the case.
508
00:28:24,069 --> 00:28:26,504
Laura di Biasi, New York City."
509
00:28:28,373 --> 00:28:31,605
The seeds of premeditation.
Way to go. Yes?
510
00:28:31,643 --> 00:28:33,655
Secretary: Sergeant Greevey
and Detective Logan are here.
511
00:28:33,679 --> 00:28:36,274
Send them in. Get a search
warrant for her apartment.
512
00:28:36,315 --> 00:28:38,750
There may be other letters.
Some people keep copies.
513
00:28:40,586 --> 00:28:42,248
Stone: Want to run through it?
514
00:28:42,287 --> 00:28:44,313
Sure.
515
00:28:47,025 --> 00:28:51,156
Now Detective Greevey,
describe for the court, if you will,
516
00:28:51,196 --> 00:28:53,791
the accused's state of mind
when you questioned her.
517
00:28:53,832 --> 00:28:54,959
She was upset.
518
00:29:02,174 --> 00:29:04,143
She said she intended
519
00:29:04,176 --> 00:29:06,941
to "blow their heads
off," if necessary.
520
00:29:08,347 --> 00:29:10,339
Was that a question?
521
00:29:12,985 --> 00:29:15,284
Are we in the same room, Max?
522
00:29:17,122 --> 00:29:19,318
Look, we both know
what went down.
523
00:29:19,358 --> 00:29:20,917
She was scared
half out of her wits
524
00:29:20,959 --> 00:29:23,087
by those... two perps.
525
00:29:23,128 --> 00:29:26,292
Victims, Max. Victims.
What's going on?
526
00:29:26,331 --> 00:29:27,799
Meaning what?
527
00:29:27,833 --> 00:29:30,302
Meaning you were gung-ho
about this before. What's happened?
528
00:29:36,975 --> 00:29:39,706
Michael Jones, the dead victim,
529
00:29:39,745 --> 00:29:42,442
the one the computer
boys said was so clean
530
00:29:42,481 --> 00:29:44,313
you could eat off of him? Yeah?
531
00:29:44,349 --> 00:29:48,218
The coroner sent out his
fingerprints on a hunch,
532
00:29:48,253 --> 00:29:50,381
just to see, you
know, for the hell of it.
533
00:29:50,422 --> 00:29:54,154
Turns out his real
name's Michael Mosket!
534
00:29:54,192 --> 00:29:56,388
Whoa... "Mosquito Mosket"?
535
00:29:56,428 --> 00:29:58,056
Yeah, ring a bell?
536
00:29:58,096 --> 00:30:00,793
Attempted murder,
negligent homicide?
537
00:30:00,832 --> 00:30:03,700
Two years at Spofford when
he was 14 for manslaughter?
538
00:30:03,735 --> 00:30:05,670
Real winner, this kid.
539
00:30:05,704 --> 00:30:08,674
This is really going to
win us points with the jury.
540
00:30:08,707 --> 00:30:10,232
They take one look at him,
541
00:30:10,275 --> 00:30:13,006
they figure the little bastard
got just what he deserved.
542
00:30:13,045 --> 00:30:15,879
That's how you figure it,
Max? I remember Mosket.
543
00:30:15,914 --> 00:30:18,884
That was all gang-related.
There was no sex involved!
544
00:30:18,917 --> 00:30:20,351
Now as far as I read it,
545
00:30:20,385 --> 00:30:22,945
that girl was revenging
the earlier attack,
546
00:30:22,988 --> 00:30:25,184
and self-defense does
not allow for revenge!
547
00:30:25,223 --> 00:30:27,818
The law allowed Michael
Mosket to walk free.
548
00:30:27,859 --> 00:30:30,693
Until real justice was
served down in the subway?
549
00:30:30,729 --> 00:30:34,166
Do you have any other
personal views on this subject
550
00:30:34,199 --> 00:30:36,100
you'd like to air before
we walk into court
551
00:30:36,134 --> 00:30:38,899
and Ms. Shambala Green
hands us our asses on a platter?!
552
00:30:40,706 --> 00:30:42,902
Nope, not a one.
553
00:30:43,909 --> 00:30:45,707
I don't believe this.
554
00:30:45,744 --> 00:30:48,509
The entire New York City
Police Department's lost its mind.
555
00:30:48,547 --> 00:30:50,209
Do you have anything to say?
556
00:30:50,248 --> 00:30:52,877
I go along with what
my partner says.
557
00:30:52,918 --> 00:30:54,386
Which is...?
558
00:31:01,660 --> 00:31:04,459
The accused stated
559
00:31:04,496 --> 00:31:07,022
that she intended
to harm the victims.
560
00:31:07,065 --> 00:31:09,466
Absolutely.
561
00:31:18,844 --> 00:31:21,336
Stone: The defense will
prove that not only fear,
562
00:31:21,380 --> 00:31:24,009
but anger stemming
from a previous incident,
563
00:31:24,049 --> 00:31:27,144
led Miss di Biasi to an
act not of self-defense,
564
00:31:27,185 --> 00:31:28,653
but of vengeance.
565
00:31:28,687 --> 00:31:30,019
Armed with a deadly weapon,
566
00:31:30,055 --> 00:31:33,219
she waited for the
very next pretext...
567
00:31:33,258 --> 00:31:36,751
In essence, she went looking for
Darnell Chenault and Michael Jones,
568
00:31:36,795 --> 00:31:39,458
whose only offense
against the accused
569
00:31:39,498 --> 00:31:41,399
was that they appeared
to be threatening.
570
00:31:41,433 --> 00:31:44,130
If Miss di Biasi is so
threatened by urban life,
571
00:31:44,169 --> 00:31:46,001
perhaps she could've
avoided the subway.
572
00:31:46,037 --> 00:31:48,131
Objection! Objection,
Your Honor.
573
00:31:48,173 --> 00:31:49,698
I trust there will
be nothing further
574
00:31:49,741 --> 00:31:51,107
along that line, Counselor?
575
00:31:52,310 --> 00:31:53,938
Green: Of course
I'm more than willing
576
00:31:53,979 --> 00:31:55,743
to make a statement.
577
00:31:55,781 --> 00:31:57,807
The behavior of the prosecution
578
00:31:57,849 --> 00:31:59,784
is totally inappropriate.
579
00:31:59,818 --> 00:32:02,481
I find it incredible that
a civil servant of this city
580
00:32:02,521 --> 00:32:05,389
could suggest that a
woman doesn't have the right
581
00:32:05,424 --> 00:32:07,290
to ride the subway without fear.
582
00:32:07,325 --> 00:32:10,295
Mr. Stone, did you really
mean to say that Laura di Biasi
583
00:32:10,328 --> 00:32:12,354
has no right to live
in New York City?
584
00:32:12,397 --> 00:32:14,696
You're being a bit
literal, aren't you?
585
00:32:14,733 --> 00:32:17,567
I don't think so. I think your
implication was pretty clear.
586
00:32:17,602 --> 00:32:20,333
If a woman is afraid of rape,
she has no right to live here.
587
00:32:20,372 --> 00:32:23,365
That's a curious position
to take for a prosecutor.
588
00:32:45,430 --> 00:32:48,195
Ballet books, poetry...
589
00:32:48,233 --> 00:32:51,169
Couple of how-to books
on achieving orgasm.
590
00:32:52,604 --> 00:32:54,573
Oh, great.
591
00:32:54,606 --> 00:32:56,199
Now what?
592
00:32:57,742 --> 00:33:00,211
Did you find anything
incriminating?
593
00:33:00,245 --> 00:33:01,543
"Small Arms Manual,"
594
00:33:01,580 --> 00:33:02,957
"Shoot to Kill,"
"Hand-to-hand Combat."
595
00:33:02,981 --> 00:33:04,506
So? Unusual bedtime stories.
596
00:33:04,549 --> 00:33:07,018
That's my business.
597
00:33:07,052 --> 00:33:08,611
I assume you have a warrant?
598
00:33:09,688 --> 00:33:12,351
Save it.
599
00:33:12,390 --> 00:33:14,882
Excuse me, I'm sorry
to bother you, I really am.
600
00:33:14,926 --> 00:33:16,237
I know you're going
through a tough...
601
00:33:16,261 --> 00:33:18,389
Yeah, right...
602
00:33:18,430 --> 00:33:20,558
You know.
603
00:33:20,599 --> 00:33:23,831
I haven't slept a full hour
since this whole thing started.
604
00:33:23,869 --> 00:33:26,429
Look, I should be
going, and I'm sorry,
605
00:33:26,471 --> 00:33:28,497
but I have to take these.
606
00:33:28,540 --> 00:33:29,974
It's not enough you hang me,
607
00:33:30,008 --> 00:33:32,102
I have to buy you
the rope, too, huh?
608
00:33:36,414 --> 00:33:38,042
What have you got against me?
609
00:33:38,083 --> 00:33:39,551
I'm sorry?
610
00:33:39,584 --> 00:33:42,986
I don't understand
why you hate me.
611
00:33:43,021 --> 00:33:44,455
Look, I'm not free to dis...
612
00:33:46,057 --> 00:33:47,855
I don't. Of course I don't.
613
00:33:47,893 --> 00:33:49,384
Then why are you...
614
00:33:49,427 --> 00:33:51,205
We really shouldn't be
having this conversation.
615
00:33:51,229 --> 00:33:53,289
I wouldn't shoot you!
616
00:33:53,331 --> 00:33:55,323
Don't you understand?
617
00:33:58,036 --> 00:34:00,267
It all became unreal.
618
00:34:00,305 --> 00:34:02,570
It wasn't happening to me.
619
00:34:02,607 --> 00:34:05,634
All I could feel was
fear. I was afraid of them.
620
00:34:05,677 --> 00:34:07,270
I was terrified!
621
00:34:07,312 --> 00:34:10,043
Not because they were black,
622
00:34:10,081 --> 00:34:12,607
but because of who they were.
623
00:34:12,651 --> 00:34:14,677
I didn't mean to kill him.
624
00:34:14,719 --> 00:34:17,154
I couldn't make it stop.
625
00:34:17,188 --> 00:34:19,521
They wouldn't... it wouldn't...
626
00:34:19,558 --> 00:34:21,652
Please, that's enough.
627
00:34:21,693 --> 00:34:23,218
What if you were on a train,
628
00:34:23,261 --> 00:34:26,823
and a bunch of rednecks
started hassling you?
629
00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:31,595
Wouldn't you be afraid?
630
00:34:33,638 --> 00:34:35,402
Wouldn't you?!
631
00:34:35,440 --> 00:34:39,901
Miss di Biasi,
please. I'm sorry,
632
00:34:39,945 --> 00:34:41,208
I can't comment.
633
00:34:44,282 --> 00:34:46,444
I can't stay.
634
00:34:49,688 --> 00:34:53,648
I came by to give you my
unconditional support. Only...
635
00:34:53,692 --> 00:34:55,718
"Number one,
tone it down a little;
636
00:34:55,760 --> 00:34:57,626
number two, try a
little damage control"?
637
00:34:57,662 --> 00:34:59,494
PR's not my job.
638
00:34:59,531 --> 00:35:00,897
You seen the papers?
639
00:35:00,932 --> 00:35:02,764
She was looking for it."
640
00:35:02,801 --> 00:35:04,463
They're having a
field day out there.
641
00:35:04,502 --> 00:35:06,471
I can't help that.
Our whole strategy
642
00:35:06,504 --> 00:35:08,268
is sandbagging the
self-defense scenario.
643
00:35:08,306 --> 00:35:11,538
Even if she comes off a
revenge seeker with a hair trigger?
644
00:35:11,576 --> 00:35:14,273
She pulled off five
shots in three seconds.
645
00:35:14,312 --> 00:35:16,474
Excellent, but it would be nice,
646
00:35:16,514 --> 00:35:20,042
real nice, if we could have
a concrete piece of evidence
647
00:35:20,085 --> 00:35:22,247
to support your revenge theory.
648
00:35:22,287 --> 00:35:23,880
DA Schiff.
649
00:35:23,922 --> 00:35:25,322
Paul.
650
00:35:27,192 --> 00:35:28,558
"Shoot to Kill"?
651
00:35:28,593 --> 00:35:30,562
Damage control.
652
00:35:31,997 --> 00:35:33,488
I found all this in her bedroom.
653
00:35:35,567 --> 00:35:38,503
Check the dates. The first
one was six months ago.
654
00:35:41,439 --> 00:35:43,305
Stone: She's improving.
655
00:35:51,683 --> 00:35:53,481
Wow.
656
00:35:53,985 --> 00:35:56,978
What were the extent
of those injuries?
657
00:35:57,022 --> 00:35:58,422
They were fairly extensive.
658
00:35:58,456 --> 00:36:00,550
Could you describe them for me?
659
00:36:00,592 --> 00:36:03,585
They were tall, muscular,
660
00:36:03,628 --> 00:36:05,790
one had an Afro with a goatee...
661
00:36:05,830 --> 00:36:08,425
Stone: No, no, Miss
di Biasi, I'll rephrase.
662
00:36:08,466 --> 00:36:10,367
Could you please explain
663
00:36:10,402 --> 00:36:12,303
and describe for the court
664
00:36:12,337 --> 00:36:13,862
the injuries?
665
00:36:13,905 --> 00:36:15,897
Oh.
666
00:36:16,941 --> 00:36:19,069
I had a shattered
disc in my back,
667
00:36:19,110 --> 00:36:21,045
some broken ribs,
668
00:36:21,079 --> 00:36:23,275
torn cartilage
in the right knee.
669
00:36:23,314 --> 00:36:26,375
And these injuries required
several operations, didn't they?
670
00:36:26,418 --> 00:36:28,216
Yes, several.
671
00:36:28,253 --> 00:36:31,189
Stone: Three? Five?
672
00:36:31,222 --> 00:36:33,748
Four, I think. Five.
673
00:36:35,560 --> 00:36:37,028
I don't know.
674
00:36:37,062 --> 00:36:38,496
They hurt me, isn't that enough?
675
00:36:38,530 --> 00:36:40,624
Yes, of course.
676
00:36:40,665 --> 00:36:42,896
And no one blames
you for being resentful.
677
00:36:44,703 --> 00:36:47,571
These injuries finished
you as a dancer, didn't they?
678
00:36:51,042 --> 00:36:52,874
Yes.
679
00:36:52,911 --> 00:36:54,880
That seem fair to you?
680
00:36:54,913 --> 00:36:56,711
I object, Your Honor.
What's the relevancy?
681
00:36:56,748 --> 00:36:58,478
I'll allow it.
682
00:37:01,486 --> 00:37:03,045
No.
683
00:37:03,088 --> 00:37:05,057
No, it wasn't fair.
684
00:37:05,090 --> 00:37:06,683
I think it's grossly unfair.
685
00:37:06,725 --> 00:37:09,058
I'm sure if I were
in your position,
686
00:37:09,094 --> 00:37:10,494
I'd carry a 9mm, too.
687
00:37:10,528 --> 00:37:12,224
Objection! Withdrawn.
688
00:37:12,263 --> 00:37:14,596
Miss di Biasi...
689
00:37:15,667 --> 00:37:18,660
in your dreams,
in your fantasies,
690
00:37:18,703 --> 00:37:21,502
did you ever wish
691
00:37:21,539 --> 00:37:23,872
you'd gotten back
at those youths?
692
00:37:23,908 --> 00:37:25,934
Green: Objection. Objection.
693
00:37:25,977 --> 00:37:27,502
Your Honor, this
is unbelievable.
694
00:37:27,545 --> 00:37:30,709
She was defending herself
against a man who's been accused
695
00:37:30,749 --> 00:37:32,445
of multiple homicides.
696
00:37:32,484 --> 00:37:35,784
Mr. Mosket's priors have no
bearing on this case, Judge.
697
00:37:35,820 --> 00:37:37,698
Nor, of course, could she
have known about them.
698
00:37:37,722 --> 00:37:39,623
Judge: Overruled.
699
00:37:39,657 --> 00:37:42,092
Besides, he wasn't
the only threat, was he?
700
00:37:44,996 --> 00:37:48,364
Who else did you find
threatening, Miss di Biasi?
701
00:37:49,367 --> 00:37:51,063
Mr. Chenault?
702
00:37:56,908 --> 00:37:59,742
What exactly did he say?
703
00:38:03,448 --> 00:38:05,815
He said...
704
00:38:07,152 --> 00:38:09,815
"How about a taste...
705
00:38:09,854 --> 00:38:11,846
for my friend?"
706
00:38:11,890 --> 00:38:13,756
Which you took
707
00:38:13,792 --> 00:38:16,091
as an overture to rape?
708
00:38:16,127 --> 00:38:19,325
He was crowding me, he
was right up against me.
709
00:38:19,364 --> 00:38:20,662
Who, Mr. Chenault?
710
00:38:20,698 --> 00:38:22,291
Mr. Mosket? Both of them?
711
00:38:22,333 --> 00:38:24,825
Yes! No.
712
00:38:25,837 --> 00:38:27,738
I don't know. At least one.
713
00:38:27,772 --> 00:38:30,241
And you tried to get
away? Yes, of course.
714
00:38:30,275 --> 00:38:31,641
The second time, too?
715
00:38:31,676 --> 00:38:33,008
Yes.
716
00:38:33,044 --> 00:38:35,055
That's why you shot him
the second time, to get away?
717
00:38:35,079 --> 00:38:36,411
Objection, Your Honor.
718
00:38:36,447 --> 00:38:38,780
Why did you shoot
Darnell Chenault
719
00:38:38,817 --> 00:38:40,376
a second time, Miss di Biasi?
720
00:38:40,418 --> 00:38:42,580
I was petrified. I
wanted to make sure.
721
00:38:42,620 --> 00:38:45,522
So you said,
"Here's your taste."
722
00:39:07,512 --> 00:39:10,380
You said, "Here's your taste."
723
00:39:10,415 --> 00:39:12,247
Sounds rather cool.
724
00:39:12,283 --> 00:39:14,650
Green: Objection, Your
Honor. No further questions.
725
00:39:21,159 --> 00:39:23,151
Miss di Biasi, you say
726
00:39:23,194 --> 00:39:25,754
you "didn't have time to think."
727
00:39:27,532 --> 00:39:30,024
Nor should anyone
be required to think
728
00:39:30,068 --> 00:39:32,367
when faced with
grave bodily harm.
729
00:39:32,403 --> 00:39:34,372
The human response
is not to think,
730
00:39:34,405 --> 00:39:36,340
but to react.
731
00:39:36,374 --> 00:39:38,366
Miss Green, get on with it.
732
00:39:40,812 --> 00:39:43,145
"Detached reflection
733
00:39:43,181 --> 00:39:45,673
cannot be demanded
in the presence
734
00:39:45,717 --> 00:39:47,652
of an uplifted knife."
735
00:39:47,685 --> 00:39:50,154
Or screwdriver.
736
00:39:50,188 --> 00:39:52,180
Objection, Your Honor,
this has no bearing
737
00:39:52,223 --> 00:39:53,714
on why Miss di
Biasi was waiting...
738
00:39:53,758 --> 00:39:55,488
This has all the
bearing in the world.
739
00:39:55,526 --> 00:39:57,825
A lot more than the
Jesuitical casuistry
740
00:39:57,862 --> 00:40:00,422
offered up by the
District Attorney.
741
00:40:00,465 --> 00:40:02,957
May we approach the
bench, Your Honor?
742
00:40:03,001 --> 00:40:05,493
If you can be brief.
743
00:40:10,174 --> 00:40:11,733
Your Honor,
744
00:40:11,776 --> 00:40:13,574
the speed of the events,
745
00:40:13,611 --> 00:40:15,273
the timeframe of
my client's reaction,
746
00:40:15,313 --> 00:40:16,838
is crucial to my defense.
747
00:40:16,881 --> 00:40:19,248
I'd like permission to stage
748
00:40:19,284 --> 00:40:20,684
a demonstration of the incident,
749
00:40:20,718 --> 00:40:22,448
if it please the court?
750
00:40:22,487 --> 00:40:24,353
Isn't this enough of
a circus, Your Honor?
751
00:40:24,389 --> 00:40:26,381
I'll decide that.
752
00:40:27,525 --> 00:40:29,619
All right, but I warn
you, Miss Green,
753
00:40:29,661 --> 00:40:32,028
I don't want to see
any undue theatrics.
754
00:40:32,063 --> 00:40:33,531
Thank you, Your Honor.
755
00:40:33,564 --> 00:40:35,260
Judge: Ladies and gentlemen,
756
00:40:35,300 --> 00:40:37,496
the court has agreed
to allow the defense
757
00:40:37,535 --> 00:40:41,267
to stage a re-enactment of
the occurrence in question.
758
00:40:50,315 --> 00:40:52,079
Crime Stoppers! Your
Honor, these people
759
00:40:52,116 --> 00:40:54,381
are on record as supporting
the vigilante tactics...
760
00:40:54,419 --> 00:40:56,479
If that's an objection,
you're overruled.
761
00:40:57,488 --> 00:40:59,354
Judge: Proceed, Miss Green.
762
00:41:22,080 --> 00:41:26,381
How about a taste, baby?
763
00:41:26,417 --> 00:41:29,512
Man, what the homeboys
doing, narcing for the white folks?!
764
00:41:29,554 --> 00:41:31,420
Order! Order!
765
00:41:31,456 --> 00:41:33,015
Huh?! Little punks!
766
00:41:33,057 --> 00:41:34,650
Get off of me! Get off of me!
767
00:41:34,692 --> 00:41:36,456
Come on, you bunch of freaks!
768
00:41:39,030 --> 00:41:42,228
Judge: Order! Order!
769
00:41:42,266 --> 00:41:44,258
If the Crime
Stoppers didn't do it,
770
00:41:44,302 --> 00:41:46,931
Darnell sure as hell did. So
how much worse can it get?
771
00:41:46,971 --> 00:41:49,497
Not much. I want you up
there for the rest of the day.
772
00:41:49,540 --> 00:41:51,441
What, an antidote
to brother Darnell?
773
00:41:51,476 --> 00:41:53,138
The name on everyone's lips.
774
00:41:53,177 --> 00:41:55,976
I got a woman down the hall
who can't stop talking about him.
775
00:41:58,649 --> 00:42:01,551
I'll... I'll sign a complaint,
776
00:42:01,586 --> 00:42:03,578
point the finger, you name it.
777
00:42:03,621 --> 00:42:06,352
You recognized Mr. Chenault
how, from seeing him on the news?
778
00:42:06,391 --> 00:42:07,950
Uh-huh, that's right.
779
00:42:07,992 --> 00:42:10,928
And the other one,
the one that died...
780
00:42:10,962 --> 00:42:12,294
Mosquito Mosket?
781
00:42:12,330 --> 00:42:14,060
Mm-hmm.
782
00:42:14,098 --> 00:42:17,330
Yeah. Too bad.
783
00:42:17,368 --> 00:42:19,303
I mean, he's...
784
00:42:19,337 --> 00:42:22,466
He's the one that
tried to rape me.
785
00:42:22,507 --> 00:42:25,033
That I'm sure of.
And I'm pretty sure
786
00:42:25,076 --> 00:42:27,545
that the guy in the
wheelchair, he held me down.
787
00:42:27,578 --> 00:42:29,570
How sure is "pretty
sure," Miss Diamond?
788
00:42:29,614 --> 00:42:32,675
Like I said, I'm positive
789
00:42:32,717 --> 00:42:34,515
of the one that died.
790
00:42:46,197 --> 00:42:50,134
Adam, I need to twist
Darnell. I need your permission.
791
00:42:50,168 --> 00:42:51,864
Yeah, what are
you talking about?
792
00:42:51,903 --> 00:42:53,838
There's a woman right
now with Stevenson
793
00:42:53,871 --> 00:42:55,499
swearing out a
complaint about Chenault.
794
00:42:55,540 --> 00:42:57,202
What's that got to
do with anything?
795
00:42:57,241 --> 00:42:58,641
Maybe nothing, maybe everything.
796
00:42:58,676 --> 00:43:00,287
But if those two are
rape-happy, I want to know that
797
00:43:00,311 --> 00:43:03,179
before I go tearing
into Laura di Biasi again.
798
00:43:03,214 --> 00:43:06,673
Can't anyone around here stay on the
same side of the street for 10 seconds?
799
00:43:06,717 --> 00:43:08,276
Well?
800
00:43:08,319 --> 00:43:10,686
If we change our tune now,
801
00:43:10,721 --> 00:43:12,747
we're facing a public
relations disaster.
802
00:43:12,790 --> 00:43:14,759
I know that. You don't
have to tell me that.
803
00:43:14,792 --> 00:43:17,023
But if I don't listen to
my reasonable doubt...
804
00:43:17,061 --> 00:43:18,654
I thought Mosket
was a gang member...
805
00:43:18,696 --> 00:43:22,133
Violent, but no history of sexual
crimes. With what I know now,
806
00:43:22,166 --> 00:43:24,032
the defendant's
perceptions may be accurate.
807
00:43:24,068 --> 00:43:26,880
I can't prosecute on that level.
All right, but we've got to consider...
808
00:43:26,904 --> 00:43:28,532
I won't do it.
809
00:43:28,573 --> 00:43:30,474
What the hell, go for it.
810
00:43:30,508 --> 00:43:33,672
I'll ask Leon for a continuance.
811
00:43:33,711 --> 00:43:37,239
Damn, cuz, slow down!
What do you want, man?
812
00:43:37,281 --> 00:43:39,341
The truth.
813
00:43:39,383 --> 00:43:42,182
Look, I was sitting down, man,
814
00:43:42,220 --> 00:43:44,189
just like I'm sitting down now.
815
00:43:44,222 --> 00:43:46,282
I didn't even move a muscle.
816
00:43:46,324 --> 00:43:50,352
Damn, man, Mosquito's the
one into biting on white chicks.
817
00:43:55,199 --> 00:43:58,033
Judge: This is rather
unbelievable, Mr. Stone.
818
00:43:58,069 --> 00:44:01,062
The defense has an obligation
to defend its client vigorously
819
00:44:01,105 --> 00:44:03,006
even if it has knowledge
of the client's guilt.
820
00:44:03,040 --> 00:44:05,669
The prosecutor's job
is much more restrictive.
821
00:44:05,710 --> 00:44:09,442
I have to drop the charges if I
believe the accused is innocent,
822
00:44:09,480 --> 00:44:12,814
and with the new information
on Mosket, I have no choice.
823
00:44:12,850 --> 00:44:14,910
There is reasonable
doubt on murder two.
824
00:44:14,952 --> 00:44:16,614
So what are you looking for?
825
00:44:16,654 --> 00:44:18,987
That she plead on the gun charge
826
00:44:19,023 --> 00:44:20,958
and the reckless endangerment...
827
00:44:20,992 --> 00:44:25,362
Chenault was shot sitting
down according to an eyewitness.
828
00:44:25,396 --> 00:44:26,955
Miss Green?
829
00:44:26,998 --> 00:44:29,024
Forget it, Judge.
830
00:44:29,066 --> 00:44:31,831
Mr. Stone is hardly in
a position to negotiate.
831
00:44:31,869 --> 00:44:33,861
Why don't we just
go back in there,
832
00:44:33,905 --> 00:44:36,067
tell the jury the
truth about Mosket,
833
00:44:36,107 --> 00:44:38,133
and let them decide how
to deal with my client?
834
00:44:40,711 --> 00:44:43,044
You are a Public Defender.
835
00:44:43,080 --> 00:44:46,312
Try defending the public.
If this goes to a jury,
836
00:44:46,350 --> 00:44:48,512
they won't convict
on the gun charge.
837
00:44:48,553 --> 00:44:50,454
She is innocent.
838
00:44:50,488 --> 00:44:53,549
Miss Laura di
Biasi is not innocent
839
00:44:53,591 --> 00:44:56,026
of carrying and
discharging a lethal weapon
840
00:44:56,060 --> 00:44:58,427
in a closed and
crowded subway car.
841
00:44:58,462 --> 00:45:01,796
And if we acquit her on
this, we will be inviting
842
00:45:01,832 --> 00:45:05,200
nine million people
to arm themselves.
843
00:45:05,236 --> 00:45:07,171
This is not a
question of win or lose,
844
00:45:07,205 --> 00:45:08,798
it's a question of justice.
845
00:45:12,643 --> 00:45:14,874
We're both paid by the people.
846
00:45:14,912 --> 00:45:17,211
We're both part of the system.
847
00:45:17,248 --> 00:45:20,184
Let's let it work the
way it's supposed to.
848
00:45:23,588 --> 00:45:26,922
Are you flexible on sentencing
849
00:45:26,958 --> 00:45:28,688
for the Sullivan violation?
850
00:45:28,726 --> 00:45:30,354
One year suspended,
851
00:45:30,394 --> 00:45:32,056
three yearsโ probation,
852
00:45:32,096 --> 00:45:35,294
2000 hours of community
service on the Sullivan.
853
00:45:35,333 --> 00:45:38,792
Five years suspended on
the reckless endangerment.
854
00:45:38,836 --> 00:45:41,965
Plus she must submit
to a psyche profile test,
855
00:45:42,006 --> 00:45:44,703
and whatever care mandated
by the hospital during probation.
856
00:45:45,710 --> 00:45:47,702
Deal?
857
00:45:52,717 --> 00:45:55,619
Naturally, my
client is gratified
858
00:45:55,653 --> 00:45:56,985
that justice has been served.
859
00:45:57,021 --> 00:46:00,480
We look upon this as not
only a personal vindication,
860
00:46:00,524 --> 00:46:03,653
but also a victory for
every woman and man
861
00:46:03,694 --> 00:46:06,493
that rides the subways or
walks the streets of New York.
862
00:46:06,530 --> 00:46:08,999
And I want to thank
the district attorneys
863
00:46:09,033 --> 00:46:11,502
for having the courage
of their convictions.
864
00:46:11,535 --> 00:46:13,663
It's not a perfect world,
865
00:46:13,704 --> 00:46:15,502
but at least we can
walk away from this one
866
00:46:15,539 --> 00:46:16,802
feeling we did the right thing.
867
00:46:16,841 --> 00:46:18,901
Really? It feels to
me like all we did
868
00:46:18,943 --> 00:46:21,435
was make the wrong
seem like a right.
