NARRATOR:
In the criminal justice system
2
00:00:07,708 --> 00:00:11,576
the people are represented by two
separate yet equally important groups,
3
00:00:11,645 --> 00:00:13,477
the police
who investigate crime
4
00:00:13,547 --> 00:00:16,312
and the district attorneys
who prosecute the offenders.
5
00:00:16,383 --> 00:00:17,942
These are their stories.
6
00:00:20,354 --> 00:00:21,719
(PEOPLE CHATTERING)
7
00:00:29,029 --> 00:00:31,293
MAN 1: Hey, hey! Right here! Right here!
MAN 2: How're you doing?
8
00:00:31,798 --> 00:00:32,788
MAN 1: Okay.
9
00:00:37,838 --> 00:00:40,671
Great.
Yeah, right there.
10
00:00:44,311 --> 00:00:45,608
Hey, how are you?
11
00:00:45,679 --> 00:00:46,840
Little bastard.
12
00:00:46,914 --> 00:00:49,144
You'll fire
his ass one day.
13
00:00:49,216 --> 00:00:50,809
I can't find him
anywhere, Derek.
14
00:00:50,884 --> 00:00:52,113
He'll miss his award.
15
00:00:52,185 --> 00:00:54,449
I knew we'd have to drag
RC out from that studio.
16
00:00:54,521 --> 00:00:56,455
And I called his cell,
but there was no answer.
17
00:00:56,523 --> 00:00:57,957
Well, there's still time.
18
00:00:58,025 --> 00:00:59,754
I'll take the limo.
19
00:01:03,196 --> 00:01:06,166
RC, man,
what are you still...
20
00:01:19,746 --> 00:01:22,647
ED: You're not gonna
believe who the dead guy is.
21
00:01:24,284 --> 00:01:26,776
Ronald Caldwell.
I don't believe it.
22
00:01:26,853 --> 00:01:29,879
That's RC Flex. He practically
invented the wheels of steel.
23
00:01:29,957 --> 00:01:31,288
Never heard of him.
24
00:01:31,358 --> 00:01:34,487
He's one of the first DJ's to
come out of Brooklyn in the '80s.
25
00:01:34,561 --> 00:01:35,790
The man's a legend.
26
00:01:35,862 --> 00:01:37,159
He certainly
dresses like one.
27
00:01:37,230 --> 00:01:39,858
Patek Philippe watch,
diamond cuff links.
28
00:01:40,267 --> 00:01:42,258
Yeah, he's a stylish cat.
29
00:01:42,336 --> 00:01:44,202
Looks like he
took one in the chest.
30
00:01:45,339 --> 00:01:48,001
There's a shell casing
over here, looks like a .45.
31
00:01:50,577 --> 00:01:51,567
It's burnt plastic.
32
00:01:51,845 --> 00:01:53,176
Gunpowder?
Mmm-hmm.
33
00:01:53,647 --> 00:01:54,944
Well, whoever came in
meant business.
34
00:01:55,015 --> 00:01:56,073
There's a lock
on this door
35
00:01:56,149 --> 00:01:58,208
and there's a lock on the
door from the street, too.
36
00:01:58,652 --> 00:02:00,313
RC must have buzzed him in.
37
00:02:01,121 --> 00:02:02,145
He knew the shooter.
38
00:02:02,222 --> 00:02:04,884
CSU guys found this in the stairwell.
Bottom landing.
39
00:02:04,958 --> 00:02:08,519
Orange Delecta.
Mmm. Thought so.
40
00:02:09,296 --> 00:02:10,923
It's a ghetto silencer.
41
00:02:11,698 --> 00:02:13,325
Make sure Latent gets that.
Yeah.
42
00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:14,595
You know,
it takes some doing
43
00:02:14,668 --> 00:02:17,137
to duct tape a pop bottle
to the end of a gun barrel.
44
00:02:17,738 --> 00:02:20,139
You've tried it?
I've tried everything once.
45
00:02:21,575 --> 00:02:22,974
Not this.
46
00:03:13,060 --> 00:03:15,461
My sons still own
all of his albums.
47
00:03:15,529 --> 00:03:17,554
RC Flex and his crew were
like the hip hop Beatles.
48
00:03:17,631 --> 00:03:19,156
They were the first
rappers to cross over.
49
00:03:19,232 --> 00:03:20,791
The press has
gotten wind of it.
50
00:03:20,867 --> 00:03:23,131
Well, there's nothing like a dead
celebrity to sell newspapers.
51
00:03:23,203 --> 00:03:25,467
And records.
What do we know?
52
00:03:25,939 --> 00:03:29,239
He was shot once with
a .45 semi-automatic.
53
00:03:29,309 --> 00:03:32,142
The shooter used a silencer made
from a plastic soda bottle.
54
00:03:32,512 --> 00:03:33,707
That's the hold-back.
55
00:03:33,780 --> 00:03:35,248
There's no evidence
of forced entry,
56
00:03:35,315 --> 00:03:38,615
so we think that Caldwell buzzed
whoever killed him into the studio.
57
00:03:38,685 --> 00:03:40,619
I doubt this was
a rap rivalry.
58
00:03:40,687 --> 00:03:42,485
You mean like that
East Coast/West Coast stuff?
59
00:03:42,556 --> 00:03:44,490
I thought that nonsense
was over years ago.
60
00:03:44,558 --> 00:03:46,822
If it ever really existed
outside the media.
61
00:03:46,893 --> 00:03:48,918
I'm glad you two know what the
hell you're talking about
62
00:03:48,995 --> 00:03:50,121
because I sure don't.
63
00:03:50,197 --> 00:03:52,859
Besides, I don't see RC going
at it like 50 Cent and Ja Rule.
64
00:03:52,933 --> 00:03:55,800
RC was old school. His music was
about kicking back and partying.
65
00:03:56,269 --> 00:03:58,169
Well, that party's over.
66
00:04:01,942 --> 00:04:04,206
ED: Excuse me, sir. We're here
to talk to Nicole Caldwell.
67
00:04:04,277 --> 00:04:05,369
Let me see some ID.
68
00:04:05,445 --> 00:04:07,345
You're busting
our stones, right?
69
00:04:07,414 --> 00:04:09,405
These people pay
five million an apartment,
70
00:04:09,483 --> 00:04:11,178
they expect
top notch security.
71
00:04:11,251 --> 00:04:12,719
There you go, bro.
72
00:04:12,953 --> 00:04:14,853
Nineteenth floor.
What apartment?
73
00:04:14,921 --> 00:04:16,446
There's only one.
74
00:04:17,591 --> 00:04:20,253
RC's come a long way
from Fort Greene.
75
00:04:21,495 --> 00:04:23,361
FONTANA: We know this
is a difficult time
76
00:04:23,430 --> 00:04:25,728
and we're very sorry for your loss, Mrs.
Caldwell.
77
00:04:26,466 --> 00:04:27,956
Thank you.
78
00:04:31,138 --> 00:04:33,402
Sir, do you mind if we talk
to Mrs. Caldwell alone?
79
00:04:33,673 --> 00:04:35,767
It's okay,
Derek is family.
80
00:04:36,243 --> 00:04:38,575
I knew RC
for over 20 years.
81
00:04:38,645 --> 00:04:39,669
We put each
other on the map
82
00:04:39,746 --> 00:04:41,339
when I was at
Fidelis Records.
83
00:04:42,182 --> 00:04:44,446
You folks were at some kind of
a party last night?
84
00:04:44,851 --> 00:04:48,879
RC was supposed to receive
a career achievement award.
85
00:04:48,955 --> 00:04:50,184
He never showed up.
86
00:04:50,257 --> 00:04:52,749
You didn't attend the ceremony
with your husband, Mrs. Caldwell?
87
00:04:53,260 --> 00:04:56,662
RC had to attend a
showcase downtown first.
88
00:04:57,464 --> 00:05:00,058
It's an industry event
for unsigned artists.
89
00:05:00,133 --> 00:05:03,262
The man was genius at taking
raw talent to the next level.
90
00:05:03,336 --> 00:05:06,271
Why did he go to the studio instead of
going straight to the awards ceremony?
91
00:05:07,340 --> 00:05:09,104
He left his tux there.
92
00:05:09,709 --> 00:05:13,145
Did he have a problem with anyone
who may have been at this showcase?
93
00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:15,448
You think someone at the
showcase did this?
94
00:05:16,049 --> 00:05:17,813
Oh, Pete would never
let that happen.
95
00:05:18,051 --> 00:05:19,849
Who?
Pete Andretti,
96
00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:21,149
his bodyguard.
97
00:05:21,588 --> 00:05:24,523
RC liked to have protection
for certain events.
98
00:05:25,525 --> 00:05:28,551
There is supposed to be
a file on every client,
99
00:05:28,628 --> 00:05:30,756
but I can't find
RC's paperwork.
100
00:05:30,831 --> 00:05:34,995
Forget about the paperwork. Do you know if
Mr. Andretti was guarding RC last night?
101
00:05:35,836 --> 00:05:37,361
Did something happen to him?
102
00:05:38,238 --> 00:05:40,036
He was shot in his studio.
103
00:05:40,607 --> 00:05:41,972
Is he okay?
104
00:05:42,042 --> 00:05:43,840
FONTANA: No,
actually he was killed.
105
00:05:47,781 --> 00:05:48,805
You knew him?
106
00:05:49,416 --> 00:05:51,612
Uh, no, not really.
107
00:05:51,685 --> 00:05:53,710
I've only been working
here a couple weeks.
108
00:05:56,189 --> 00:05:57,714
What's up, Cece?
109
00:05:58,258 --> 00:05:59,851
Pete Andretti?
Yeah.
110
00:06:00,427 --> 00:06:02,759
Pete. RC's been killed.
111
00:06:03,663 --> 00:06:05,927
I know. I just heard it
on the radio.
112
00:06:06,900 --> 00:06:08,698
Better come to my office.
113
00:06:14,307 --> 00:06:15,775
We didn't mean to
upset your secretary.
114
00:06:15,842 --> 00:06:18,243
No problem.
Cece's my wife.
115
00:06:23,116 --> 00:06:24,140
Hey, that's a nice piece.
116
00:06:24,217 --> 00:06:25,844
What is that? The Beretta
nine millimeter?
117
00:06:26,386 --> 00:06:28,047
Beretta .45.
118
00:06:28,121 --> 00:06:30,783
Huh. Now that's
a good gun.
119
00:06:31,558 --> 00:06:33,754
Hey, so you were
with RC last night?
120
00:06:33,827 --> 00:06:36,262
Yeah. I did his security
the last two years.
121
00:06:36,329 --> 00:06:39,526
Before that I was on the job.
I worked the 115 Squad.
122
00:06:39,599 --> 00:06:41,431
South Jamaica.
That's a tough neighborhood.
123
00:06:41,501 --> 00:06:43,993
Yeah, it was perfect
training for this gig.
124
00:06:44,070 --> 00:06:46,095
Lot of rappers come
out of that hood, you know.
125
00:06:46,473 --> 00:06:48,373
Best to know
the players, the beefs.
126
00:06:48,441 --> 00:06:50,102
Any beefs with RC?
127
00:06:50,410 --> 00:06:53,141
(SIGHS) Nothing but love
for RC in the hood.
128
00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:57,914
So, how long were you at the
showcase with RC last night?
129
00:06:57,984 --> 00:07:01,443
The Groove Club? From about
7:00 to 8:00 something.
130
00:07:01,521 --> 00:07:04,047
Afterward, I put him in a cab to
go to the studio and get his tux.
131
00:07:04,658 --> 00:07:06,558
No threats, no fights,
no arguments?
132
00:07:06,626 --> 00:07:09,960
No, no. Just another
boring day at the office.
133
00:07:11,331 --> 00:07:12,696
(sums)
134
00:07:13,199 --> 00:07:15,327
I can't believe
someone took him out.
135
00:07:19,239 --> 00:07:22,140
Last night was not what I'd
call a fighting crowd.
136
00:07:22,208 --> 00:07:23,471
What would you call it?
137
00:07:24,177 --> 00:07:26,942
Boring. Industry.
138
00:07:27,013 --> 00:07:28,879
Agents and Managers
rent the place,
139
00:07:28,949 --> 00:07:33,182
put up a bunch of wannabes,
see who pops, who's got "it."
140
00:07:33,486 --> 00:07:35,420
Hey, did anybody
try anything with RC?
141
00:07:35,488 --> 00:07:37,047
Not even close.
142
00:07:37,123 --> 00:07:39,217
Especially with Mooney
at RC's table.
143
00:07:39,893 --> 00:07:41,054
Who's Mooney?
144
00:07:41,361 --> 00:07:42,453
His bodyguard.
145
00:07:43,496 --> 00:07:44,725
What does Mooney look like?
146
00:07:44,798 --> 00:07:48,200
A refrigerator with a head.
Black guy.
147
00:07:48,868 --> 00:07:50,063
Really?
148
00:07:50,537 --> 00:07:53,131
Said he went to
high school with RC.
149
00:07:54,374 --> 00:07:55,933
Andretti lied about
being at that showcase,
150
00:07:56,009 --> 00:07:59,001
which means Mooney was the
last person to see RC alive.
151
00:07:59,079 --> 00:08:01,377
Fort Greene High School
yearbook. Class of '82.
152
00:08:01,448 --> 00:08:02,973
Did Mooney show up
for his class photo?
153
00:08:03,049 --> 00:08:05,643
He's in here. Leon Mooney.
Four years varsity football.
154
00:08:05,719 --> 00:08:08,051
Here we are.
Starting right tackle.
155
00:08:09,189 --> 00:08:10,452
Where's Mooney at now?
156
00:08:10,523 --> 00:08:13,982
You're gonna love this.
Iran him through NCIC.
157
00:08:14,060 --> 00:08:16,188
He's on the job in Queens.
158
00:08:16,830 --> 00:08:20,460
This is great. Our best leads
are both police officers.
159
00:08:20,934 --> 00:08:23,562
Well, Detective Green, how
would you like to handle this?
160
00:08:23,636 --> 00:08:25,968
Do we confront Andretti
with his bogus story
161
00:08:26,039 --> 00:08:27,973
or hammer Mooney
with the job?
162
00:08:28,041 --> 00:08:30,305
I think it's better if they don't
know we're looking at them yet.
163
00:08:30,377 --> 00:08:33,039
Let's just keep digging,
starting with Andretti.
164
00:08:36,516 --> 00:08:39,042
I only partnered with Andretti
a year before he retired.
165
00:08:39,119 --> 00:08:40,917
He invested 17 years
and he quits?
166
00:08:40,987 --> 00:08:42,477
That doesn't seem right.
167
00:08:42,555 --> 00:08:45,855
I heard he makes better money with
that security firm he started.
168
00:08:45,925 --> 00:08:48,019
That's it?
That's the whole story?
169
00:08:50,497 --> 00:08:52,226
It was a well known secret
that Pete was still on the job
170
00:08:52,298 --> 00:08:53,459
when he started
his company.
171
00:08:53,833 --> 00:08:55,096
That's conflict of interest.
172
00:08:55,168 --> 00:08:57,136
Most of the rappers
he worked for had records.
173
00:08:58,004 --> 00:09:00,063
Made a lot of people
uncomfortable, me included.
174
00:09:00,707 --> 00:09:02,505
Did he get caught in the
middle of something?
175
00:09:03,877 --> 00:09:07,108
He was doing a security gig at
this club on Merrick Boulevard.
176
00:09:07,180 --> 00:09:08,705
Two mopes
bump into each other,
177
00:09:08,782 --> 00:09:10,614
next thing you know,
guns are out.
178
00:09:10,683 --> 00:09:12,742
Pete ended up shooting one of
them with his service revolver.
179
00:09:13,753 --> 00:09:15,346
And he takes
an early retirement.
180
00:09:15,422 --> 00:09:18,653
And the Department banned us from
off-duty work with his company.
181
00:09:18,725 --> 00:09:21,023
Anyone who broke the rule would
get 30 days on the street.
182
00:09:21,761 --> 00:09:23,024
Like Mooney.
183
00:09:23,496 --> 00:09:24,725
Thanks a lot.
184
00:09:25,665 --> 00:09:27,099
Officer Mooney.
185
00:09:27,167 --> 00:09:30,193
Hey, Donnie, give me a minute
with these guys, all right?
186
00:09:33,239 --> 00:09:35,503
I knew it was just
a matter of time.
187
00:09:36,009 --> 00:09:37,272
So your old friend gets shot
188
00:09:37,343 --> 00:09:39,004
and all you can think about
is saving your own ass?
189
00:09:39,579 --> 00:09:42,241
If I had any information about that
night, I would've said something.
190
00:09:42,315 --> 00:09:43,783
Well, now it looks like
you have something to hide.
191
00:09:43,850 --> 00:09:45,181
ED: Now the big question is
192
00:09:45,385 --> 00:09:47,353
why you were working this
gig in the first place?
193
00:09:47,420 --> 00:09:48,649
MOONEY: What do you mean?
194
00:09:48,721 --> 00:09:51,588
Andretti says that he
always bodyguards Caldwell.
195
00:09:51,658 --> 00:09:53,148
Unless that was a lie, too?
196
00:09:53,226 --> 00:09:55,627
Lately Pete just didn't
want anything to do with RC.
197
00:09:55,695 --> 00:09:57,527
That's why he offered me
the gig that night.
198
00:09:57,597 --> 00:09:59,156
Something went down
between them.
199
00:09:59,232 --> 00:10:00,256
Like what?
200
00:10:00,333 --> 00:10:01,732
I'm not sure.
201
00:10:01,968 --> 00:10:05,131
But I was in the office picking
up a check when RC came by.
202
00:10:05,205 --> 00:10:07,071
He gave Pete a brand new
iPod to give to his wife.
203
00:10:07,373 --> 00:10:09,171
Cece? Yeah,herbh1hday
was coming up.
204
00:10:09,509 --> 00:10:10,704
As soon as RC
left the office,
205
00:10:10,777 --> 00:10:12,871
Pete turns around and gives
the damn thing to me.
206
00:10:13,279 --> 00:10:15,441
Maybe he felt he was being
shown up by Caldwell.
207
00:10:15,882 --> 00:10:18,283
Somebody wants to give
my girl an expensive gift,
208
00:10:18,351 --> 00:10:20,251
I say thank you for
saving me some cheddar.
209
00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:21,446
But Pete,
210
00:10:21,521 --> 00:10:23,853
he just did not want her
to have that thing.
211
00:10:24,924 --> 00:10:26,619
Andretti didn't want us
to know that he wasn't
212
00:10:26,693 --> 00:10:28,388
working security
for RC anymore.
213
00:10:28,461 --> 00:10:30,691
What if it's his wife he's
all bent out of shape about?
214
00:10:30,763 --> 00:10:33,357
You saw her reaction when she
found out that Caldwell was dead.
215
00:10:33,433 --> 00:10:35,265
Yeah, she tried to hide it,
but she was pretty upset.
216
00:10:35,335 --> 00:10:37,667
Especially for someone who's
only worked there for two weeks.
217
00:10:37,737 --> 00:10:39,171
Hey, you think he made
his wife work there
218
00:10:39,239 --> 00:10:40,331
so he could keep
an eye on her?
219
00:10:40,406 --> 00:10:42,738
Well, maybe he got tired of
doing security for Caldwell
220
00:10:42,809 --> 00:10:45,574
because he didn't wanna be around
the guy who was servicing his wife.
221
00:10:45,645 --> 00:10:47,010
Well, we know
he's got a .45.
222
00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:48,343
And a motive.
223
00:10:49,082 --> 00:10:51,278
Oh, man, don't even
try to play me.
224
00:10:51,351 --> 00:10:54,013
I used to be on the other
side of that table, remember?
225
00:10:54,087 --> 00:10:55,145
So who's the good cop?
226
00:10:56,022 --> 00:10:57,854
Look, man, we ain't
running game on you.
227
00:10:57,924 --> 00:10:59,517
Best game of all
is no game.
228
00:10:59,792 --> 00:11:01,988
Now, I know you talked to Mooney.
Am I a suspect?
229
00:11:02,162 --> 00:11:04,460
Let's just say that
you're a person of interest.
230
00:11:06,833 --> 00:11:09,131
So you found out
about RC and my wife.
231
00:11:09,202 --> 00:11:11,068
Mmm-hmm.
Your wife's young,
232
00:11:11,137 --> 00:11:12,605
she's probably
a little star struck.
233
00:11:12,672 --> 00:11:15,334
Big time player like RC
couldn't help himself.
234
00:11:15,408 --> 00:11:18,105
And I'd almost say I wouldn't
blame you if you went after him.
235
00:11:18,478 --> 00:11:21,140
All I did was
stop watching his back.
236
00:11:21,648 --> 00:11:24,310
I ain't taking a beating for no
dude who's taggin' my woman.
237
00:11:24,817 --> 00:11:26,581
Caldwell was shot with a .45.
238
00:11:26,653 --> 00:11:27,916
And I was at home.
239
00:11:27,987 --> 00:11:29,182
ED: All night?
240
00:11:29,722 --> 00:11:31,019
No.
241
00:11:31,090 --> 00:11:33,115
I couldn't sleep,
so I went for a drive.
242
00:11:33,459 --> 00:11:34,984
(CHUCKLES)
243
00:11:35,762 --> 00:11:36,888
That's not good, Pete.
244
00:11:36,963 --> 00:11:39,694
Got a pack of cigarettes at
a gas station in Manhasset.
245
00:11:39,766 --> 00:11:40,824
Then I went home.
246
00:11:41,568 --> 00:11:43,297
Can your wife verify that?
247
00:11:43,870 --> 00:11:45,429
When I got home,
she was sleeping.
248
00:11:46,206 --> 00:11:47,230
Of course.
249
00:11:47,307 --> 00:11:49,401
Run ballistics on my gun
if you want to.
250
00:11:49,475 --> 00:11:50,499
We will.
251
00:11:50,577 --> 00:11:51,738
(KNOCKING ON DOOR)
252
00:11:51,811 --> 00:11:53,745
The M.E. is looking for you.
253
00:11:55,114 --> 00:11:56,343
Stay here.
254
00:11:58,484 --> 00:12:01,249
I used a track probe to trace
the path of the bullet.
255
00:12:01,754 --> 00:12:04,485
It entered at the center
sternum, went front to back.
256
00:12:04,557 --> 00:12:05,615
So what does
that tell you?
257
00:12:05,692 --> 00:12:08,957
Well, judging by the angle, he was
standing, facing the shooter.
258
00:12:09,362 --> 00:12:12,388
Took out his aorta.
Death was instantaneous.
259
00:12:12,465 --> 00:12:14,433
Your good Samaritan
must've been in a panic.
260
00:12:14,667 --> 00:12:15,964
Good Samaritan?
261
00:12:16,669 --> 00:12:20,401
Our friend has got
marks along his sternum,
262
00:12:21,307 --> 00:12:23,275
artifacts of resuscitation.
263
00:12:23,876 --> 00:12:25,708
CPR? On this guy?
264
00:12:25,912 --> 00:12:28,643
Someone tried to save his life,
someone who wasn't very good at it.
265
00:12:28,715 --> 00:12:32,015
These are classic signs of
overzealous chest compression.
266
00:12:32,385 --> 00:12:34,251
And this happened between
the time he was shot
267
00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:35,754
and when the body
was discovered?
268
00:12:35,822 --> 00:12:37,483
Oh, this trauma
is peri-mortem.
269
00:12:37,557 --> 00:12:40,891
Life saving measures were attempted
within seconds after he was shot.
270
00:12:41,394 --> 00:12:44,295
That means somebody else
was in the studio that night.
271
00:12:50,136 --> 00:12:51,501
RC Flex.
272
00:12:51,571 --> 00:12:54,597
He rocked until he sold out and made
that record with that grunge band.
273
00:12:54,674 --> 00:12:57,075
Hey, listen, there was
somebody else in the studio
274
00:12:57,143 --> 00:12:58,338
that night
besides the shooter.
275
00:12:58,411 --> 00:12:59,606
And we're hoping
you can tell us who.
276
00:12:59,679 --> 00:13:03,411
Well, the soda bottle was one of a batch
of 12,000 from a plant in Newark.
277
00:13:03,483 --> 00:13:04,541
Well, that's fascinating.
278
00:13:04,617 --> 00:13:07,086
Now if you could only tell us who was
drinking it we'd be in business.
279
00:13:07,153 --> 00:13:08,746
There wasn't any usable DNA.
280
00:13:08,821 --> 00:13:11,620
But absence of evidence
is not evidence of absence.
281
00:13:11,691 --> 00:13:15,389
(SIGHS) Beck. Did you find
any hairs or fibers?
282
00:13:15,461 --> 00:13:17,987
Yeah, hundreds. But nothing I
could identify in a database.
283
00:13:18,064 --> 00:13:21,329
But there was a compact
disc in the studio console.
284
00:13:21,834 --> 00:13:23,563
I burned you guys a copy.
285
00:13:25,171 --> 00:13:26,570
What's on this?
286
00:13:26,639 --> 00:13:29,131
Three tracks. Judging by the
frequency of the expletives
287
00:13:29,208 --> 00:13:32,178
I would categorize it as gangster rap.
It's pretty good stuff.
288
00:13:32,445 --> 00:13:33,708
Well, if RC was
working on this,
289
00:13:33,780 --> 00:13:35,805
the rapper on these tracks might
have been there in the studio.
290
00:13:35,982 --> 00:13:37,245
Exactly.
Thanks, Brian.
291
00:13:37,317 --> 00:13:38,512
Yeah.
292
00:13:41,387 --> 00:13:42,980
WINSTON: I heard
Pete Andretti's in custody.
293
00:13:43,056 --> 00:13:44,182
Not anymore.
He checked out.
294
00:13:44,257 --> 00:13:45,281
So you're nowhere?
295
00:13:45,358 --> 00:13:46,519
We're doing
the best we can.
296
00:13:46,592 --> 00:13:49,323
That's what they said about Biggie
and Tupac. It's been 10 years.
297
00:13:49,395 --> 00:13:51,693
People in the industry want results,
but they don't want to cooperate.
298
00:13:51,764 --> 00:13:53,459
And we know you're not gonna
be one of those guys,
299
00:13:53,533 --> 00:13:56,002
and that's why you'll identify
who's singing on this CD for us.
300
00:13:56,102 --> 00:13:57,092
Right, mate?
301
00:14:02,241 --> 00:14:03,902

Makes me want to go home and
listen to Dean Martin records.
308
00:14:17,223 --> 00:14:19,157
4-Strike.
Never heard him.
309
00:14:19,225 --> 00:14:22,217
He's a kid named Stephen
Foreman from Queens.
310
00:14:22,595 --> 00:14:25,530
His first album did
only 50,000 units.
311
00:14:25,798 --> 00:14:28,961
I signed him because I thought he'd
really blow up with RC producing.
312
00:14:29,268 --> 00:14:31,259
You don't sound
too happy about the CD.
313
00:14:31,437 --> 00:14:32,836
I'm not.
314
00:14:33,206 --> 00:14:36,938
This isn't the single RC and
4-Strike just finished yesterday.
315
00:14:37,377 --> 00:14:38,469
It's a re-mix,
316
00:14:38,544 --> 00:14:41,275
a different version than what
they recorded for the album.
317
00:14:41,647 --> 00:14:42,978
What's wrong
with doing both?
318
00:14:43,049 --> 00:14:44,983
The re-mix isn't
authorized by the label.
319
00:14:45,051 --> 00:14:47,577
It's to sell on the street,
behind the label's back.
320
00:14:48,254 --> 00:14:51,087
And 4-Strike gets 100% on whatever
he sells out of his trunk.
321
00:14:51,157 --> 00:14:53,649
I gave him 90 grand
as an advance.

00:14:54,594 --> 00:14:57,620
I can't believe
Stephen would do this.
323
00:15:01,267 --> 00:15:03,599
What makes you think Stephen has
anything to do with that mess?
324
00:15:03,669 --> 00:15:04,898
Well, he probably
doesn't, Mr. Foreman.
325
00:15:04,971 --> 00:15:06,939
But we're talking to everybody
that RC worked with.

business our son really trusted.

When Stephen got
his advance money
328

he wanted to buy
a Mercedes-Benz.

a waste of money.

listen to his own parents.

341
00:15:43,276 --> 00:15:45,472
What's equipment like this
cost a fellow?
342
00:15:45,545 --> 00:15:47,035
I don't keep track.
343
00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:50,814
Excuse me, player. You need
to leave for a minute.
344
00:15:50,883 --> 00:15:53,443
I'm about to do some serious
damage on this here, man.
345
00:15:53,519 --> 00:15:55,681
He'll save the game for you. We
need to talk to him. Come on.
346
00:15:55,755 --> 00:15:57,280
All right. See you.
347
00:16:04,964 --> 00:16:06,955
It's messed up
what happened to RC.
348
00:16:07,467 --> 00:16:08,901
Figure out
who did it yet?
349
00:16:09,168 --> 00:16:10,727
Well, that's what
we're working on.
350
00:16:10,803 --> 00:16:12,271
Where were you
that night he was shot?
351
00:16:12,338 --> 00:16:14,204
I was here,
chilling with the family.
352
00:16:14,273 --> 00:16:16,435
And when was the last time
you were at the studio?
353
00:16:16,876 --> 00:16:18,776
I don't know.
Couple of weeks ago.
354
00:16:18,845 --> 00:16:20,870
I had to lay down
some tracks for my single.
355
00:16:21,147 --> 00:16:24,811
These tracks for the album or the mix
tape you were making behind RC's back?
356
00:16:27,453 --> 00:16:30,753
RC was listening to it in the
studio the night he got shot.
357
00:16:32,792 --> 00:16:34,226
That wasn't no mix tape.
358
00:16:34,694 --> 00:16:36,753
RC knew
I wanted to produce.
359
00:16:36,829 --> 00:16:38,763
He was like "Cool,
I'll send you the tracks,
360
00:16:38,831 --> 00:16:40,560
"just show me
what you could do."
361
00:16:40,633 --> 00:16:42,761
I remixed it here and
asked him what he thought.
362
00:16:43,736 --> 00:16:45,226
When did all of this happen?
363
00:16:45,705 --> 00:16:48,333
A couple weeks ago,
like I said.
364
00:16:50,142 --> 00:16:52,611
Okay. Okay.
365
00:16:54,380 --> 00:16:55,541
That boy's lying.
366
00:16:55,615 --> 00:16:57,515
Winston said that they didn't
even finish that single
367
00:16:57,583 --> 00:16:59,142
'till the day before
RC was killed.
368
00:16:59,218 --> 00:17:00,413
That's right.
369
00:17:00,486 --> 00:17:03,012
Okay, so let's just say that this kid
takes the mix tape to the studio
370
00:17:03,089 --> 00:17:05,615
to get RC's approval
and RC doesn't approve.
371
00:17:05,691 --> 00:17:07,022
I mean,
the last thing RC wants
372
00:17:07,093 --> 00:17:08,788
is for this mix tape
to end up on the street
373
00:17:08,861 --> 00:17:10,351
before the album
hits the stores.
374
00:17:10,429 --> 00:17:13,421
So RC threatens to
tell the record label.
375
00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:15,331
And then Stephen
kills the producer
376
00:17:15,401 --> 00:17:17,165
because there's
all that money at stake?
377
00:17:17,236 --> 00:17:20,297
Or there was something on that
mix tape that RC didn't like?
378
00:17:20,373 --> 00:17:22,171
What could it be?
The music? The lyrics?
379
00:17:22,241 --> 00:17:24,175
I don't know, but I want
to hear that CD again.
380
00:17:24,243 --> 00:17:25,870
I know the perfect spot.

this system set you back?

using an orange
Delecta silencer.

00:17:59,378 --> 00:18:00,971
Now what are the
chances of that?
398
00:18:01,147 --> 00:18:03,138

what Yogi Berra says.

Stops for a light, somebody
grabs a bag out of his car,

00:18:19,231 --> 00:18:20,756
Santa takes
one 'm the head.
404
00:18:20,833 --> 00:18:22,665
All they heard on the street
was a pop.
405
00:18:22,735 --> 00:18:24,032
And that was from
a ghetto silencer?
406
00:18:24,103 --> 00:18:27,198
We think so. M.E. found plastic
fragments in the wound.
407
00:18:27,406 --> 00:18:28,430
Is the case closed?
408
00:18:28,507 --> 00:18:30,601
No, but we're pretty
sure who did it.
409
00:18:30,676 --> 00:18:34,044
This kid called Psycho and
an unidentified accomplice.
410
00:18:34,246 --> 00:18:35,577

414
00:18:42,421 --> 00:18:44,856
The case turned into
a three ring circus.
415
00:18:45,625 --> 00:18:48,458
That's Anthony Harrison
aka "Psycho."
416
00:18:49,261 --> 00:18:51,593

I don't understand.
You talked to him already.
425

Mrs. Foreman,
I'm sorry.
426
00:19:17,623 --> 00:19:18,681
My son didn't do anything.
427
00:19:18,758 --> 00:19:20,089
Ma'am,
we have a search warrant,
428
00:19:20,159 --> 00:19:23,356
which means I'm gonna have to ask you
to please stay out of the way. Okay?

I got something here.

are full of them.

Hey, did you check
these boots already?
434
00:19:39,845 --> 00:19:40,869
No, not yet.
435
00:19:40,946 --> 00:19:43,540
Doesn't that look like
melted plastic in the tread?
436
00:19:44,650 --> 00:19:47,119
That's gunpowder.
Voucher these.
437
00:19:47,186 --> 00:19:49,848
You're under arrest for the
murder of Ronald Caldwell.
438
00:19:51,023 --> 00:19:52,548
What are you doing?
439
00:19:52,625 --> 00:19:53,683
You have the right
to remain silent.
440
00:19:53,759 --> 00:19:55,750
Anything you say can be used
against you in a court of law.
441
00:19:55,828 --> 00:19:56,954
You have the right
to an attorney.
442
00:20:00,299 --> 00:20:02,996
My client isn't interested
in a plea, Jack.
443
00:20:03,069 --> 00:20:05,299
Who said anything about a plea, Mr.
Silverman?
444
00:20:05,604 --> 00:20:09,507
Oh, so you dragged us out here to
apologize for the misunderstanding?
445
00:20:09,575 --> 00:20:13,569
There was a third party in the
room when Caldwell was shot
446
00:20:14,213 --> 00:20:15,476
who tried
to save his life.
447
00:20:15,948 --> 00:20:18,178
And why are you
giving me this gift?
448
00:20:18,317 --> 00:20:21,184
You were going to get the
autopsy report sooner or later.
449
00:20:21,687 --> 00:20:25,055
Oh, you don't know this
person's name, do you?
450
00:20:25,925 --> 00:20:29,691
Why don't we step out so you can spend
a few minutes alone with your client?
451
00:20:30,096 --> 00:20:31,894
I think that's a good idea.
452
00:20:31,964 --> 00:20:33,625
No.
Stephen.
453
00:20:33,966 --> 00:20:35,263
It's not gonna
help anything.
454
00:20:35,334 --> 00:20:39,396
Do you realize that you're facing
25-to-life for this, Mr. Foreman?
455
00:20:42,641 --> 00:20:45,736
If you're afraid of someone,
we can protect you.
456
00:20:47,079 --> 00:20:48,342
I ain't afraid.
457
00:20:48,547 --> 00:20:51,278

nothing to say to you.

Oh, I've been here for

while the spotlight's on.
480
00:22:01,587 --> 00:22:05,990
I suppose a murder charge is the
ultimate credential in the rap world.
481
00:22:06,058 --> 00:22:08,186
Yeah, it's all about
marketing your street rep.
482
00:22:08,260 --> 00:22:09,625
Some of these
so-called "thugs"
483
00:22:09,695 --> 00:22:12,187
are from good families
in middle class suburbs.
484
00:22:12,765 --> 00:22:16,531
So, was Ronald Caldwell
some kind of trophy?
485
00:22:16,602 --> 00:22:18,798
It's just hard for me
to believe that Foreman
486
00:22:18,871 --> 00:22:21,431
would gratuitously kill
one of his idols.
487
00:22:21,507 --> 00:22:23,839
Ahh, but you just said
street rep sells records.
488
00:22:23,909 --> 00:22:26,037
And if Caldwell was
about to shut down his
489
00:22:26,145 --> 00:22:30,048
lucrative bootleg business,
he hit the daily double.
490
00:22:30,115 --> 00:22:31,276
It just doesn't line up.
491
00:22:31,350 --> 00:22:34,320
He's a really talented kid.
He has no priors.
492
00:22:34,386 --> 00:22:35,911
Just means
he never got caught.
493
00:22:35,988 --> 00:22:38,753
I know a lot of these rap
songs are over-the-top,
494
00:22:38,824 --> 00:22:42,260
but he did brag that he killed
a drug-dealer and it was true.
495
00:22:42,728 --> 00:22:44,992
He's a solid citizen
in school,
496
00:22:45,064 --> 00:22:47,123
his parents are
hardworking people.
497
00:22:47,199 --> 00:22:49,531
See if they'll talk
sense into their son.
498
00:22:50,169 --> 00:22:52,661
I know my rights.
We don't have to talk to you.

I'm here because I think I
might be able to help yourson.
500
00:22:55,875 --> 00:22:57,604
Help him into ajail cell.
501
00:22:58,010 --> 00:23:01,674
The evidence against him is
pretty strong, Mrs. Foreman.
502
00:23:01,747 --> 00:23:05,684
My son has never been in
any trouble before. Neven
503
00:23:06,886 --> 00:23:09,014
Did you ever
listen to his music?
504
00:23:09,388 --> 00:23:12,153
That's just
Stephen's imagination.
505
00:23:12,224 --> 00:23:14,818
Well, he talks about murdering
a man from this neighborhood
506
00:23:14,894 --> 00:23:16,521
with his friend
Anthony Harrison.
507
00:23:16,595 --> 00:23:20,429
Oh, come on. In my day, the
kids played army or cowboys.
508
00:23:20,499 --> 00:23:23,332
Besides, he and Anthony would
never do something like that.
509
00:23:23,569 --> 00:23:26,595
Did you know that Anthony
goes by the name of "Psycho"?
510
00:23:26,972 --> 00:23:29,100
We know Anthony
has some problems.
511
00:23:29,174 --> 00:23:32,735
But the boys have been friends
for a very long time.
512
00:23:32,811 --> 00:23:34,745
Anthony watches his back
in the clubs.
513
00:23:34,813 --> 00:23:36,747
He even helped Stephen
buy his recording equipment
514
00:23:36,815 --> 00:23:38,249
before anybody
ever heard of him.
515
00:23:38,817 --> 00:23:43,618
Harrison has a record selling drugs.
Gun possession, too.
516
00:23:44,156 --> 00:23:46,420
If we could get some straight
answers from your son,
517
00:23:46,492 --> 00:23:48,824
I think it might
make a difference.
518
00:23:55,834 --> 00:23:59,270
You know, I think that's all we
have to say to you, Ms. Southerlyn.
519
00:24:03,242 --> 00:24:04,767
Okay.
520
00:24:08,781 --> 00:24:10,249
The parents weren't
very receptive.
521
00:24:10,316 --> 00:24:12,148
But I did
learn a few things.
522
00:24:12,217 --> 00:24:14,743
Harrison is part of 4-Strike's
unofficial entourage.
523
00:24:14,820 --> 00:24:16,811
He bought Foreman's
home studio equipment.
524
00:24:16,889 --> 00:24:18,288
Probably with
drug proceeds.
525
00:24:18,357 --> 00:24:19,483
Your point?
526
00:24:19,558 --> 00:24:21,856
These are two friends
headed in opposite directions.
527
00:24:21,927 --> 00:24:24,658
The one without talent
hanging on for the ride.
528
00:24:24,730 --> 00:24:27,631
I don't doubt Psycho Harrison
was a bad influence.
529
00:24:27,700 --> 00:24:29,964
But I'm not sure that's
covered in the penal law.
530
00:24:30,035 --> 00:24:32,504
Look what I downloaded
from the Internet.
531
00:24:33,672 --> 00:24:35,538
JACK: "Hiphopnationscom."
532
00:24:36,942 --> 00:24:40,344
This is a chat room which posts
messages from hip hop fans
533
00:24:40,412 --> 00:24:41,880
about Caldwell's murder.
534
00:24:42,281 --> 00:24:44,807
"Peep this. Dude named
Psycho be reppin' about
535
00:24:44,883 --> 00:24:48,012
"spraying RC Flex. Wettin' him
down with orange Delecta."
536
00:24:48,887 --> 00:24:50,321
The soda bottle wasn't
released, was it?
537
00:24:50,856 --> 00:24:52,915
It was part of
the police holdback.
538
00:24:52,992 --> 00:24:54,482
Any way to tell
who posted this?
539
00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:56,688
The user name is Nu-G.
540
00:24:57,563 --> 00:24:59,531
The site was sponsored
by Detention Records.
541
00:24:59,598 --> 00:25:01,362
I was just on my way
to drop a subpoena
542
00:25:01,433 --> 00:25:03,663
to Derek Winston for the
person's real name.
543
00:25:03,736 --> 00:25:05,295
Keep me posted.
544
00:25:05,371 --> 00:25:06,497
Yeah.
545
00:25:06,572 --> 00:25:10,475
The website's a way for Detention's
artists to connect with our fan base.
546
00:25:10,542 --> 00:25:12,306
Record release dates,
concert news
547
00:25:12,378 --> 00:25:14,710
and anything else that's
happening in the hip hop world.
548
00:25:14,780 --> 00:25:17,112
One of your site's users
apparently has some information
549
00:25:17,182 --> 00:25:19,116
on Ronald Caldwell's murder.
550
00:25:19,184 --> 00:25:20,811
It implicates 4-Strike?
551
00:25:20,886 --> 00:25:22,650
Actually,
it might help him.
552
00:25:23,622 --> 00:25:27,456
You'll provide us with the e-mail
address of a user named Nu-G?
553
00:25:27,860 --> 00:25:29,225
Sure.
554
00:25:32,631 --> 00:25:34,292
There was some chatter
on the Internet
555
00:25:34,366 --> 00:25:36,095
that another person
was the shooter.
556
00:25:36,168 --> 00:25:39,138
Which could just as well be something
the defendant put there himself.
557
00:25:39,204 --> 00:25:41,571
Still, it'd be wise
to locate the source.
558
00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:45,235
At least to make sure he or she doesn't
turn up on the defense's witness list.
559
00:25:45,310 --> 00:25:46,641
We've got that in the works.
560
00:25:46,712 --> 00:25:49,647
The president of the record
company that sponsors the site
561
00:25:49,715 --> 00:25:51,240
seems to be cooperative.
562
00:25:51,550 --> 00:25:54,815
From Detention Records. A
motion to quash oursubpoena.
563
00:25:57,222 --> 00:25:59,088
So much for cooperative.
564
00:26:02,895 --> 00:26:04,863
The individual who
posted this message
565
00:26:04,930 --> 00:26:08,696
on Detention Record's
website, user name Nu-G,
566
00:26:08,767 --> 00:26:12,601
claims to have heard an unapprehended
suspect confess to the murder.
567
00:26:12,871 --> 00:26:15,863
And what makes you think this message
has any credibility, Mr. McCoy?
568
00:26:15,941 --> 00:26:18,000
It contains information
about the murder
569
00:26:18,077 --> 00:26:19,636
that wasn't released
to the public.
570
00:26:20,112 --> 00:26:22,080
Why should I quash the
subpoena, Mr. Nelson?
571
00:26:22,147 --> 00:26:25,481
The users of the website have an
expectation of privacy in the chatroom.
572
00:26:25,551 --> 00:26:28,521
There's no privacy agreement
between the website and the user
573
00:26:28,587 --> 00:26:31,522
that even suggests that these
posters will stay anonymous.
574
00:26:31,590 --> 00:26:34,082
Because it's understood. That's why
the users don't use their real names
575
00:26:34,159 --> 00:26:35,684
and only submit
an e-mail address.
576
00:26:35,894 --> 00:26:37,794
What they understood
and what the law says
577
00:26:37,863 --> 00:26:40,230
are two different
things, Mr. Nelson.
578
00:26:40,499 --> 00:26:43,799
I'm ordering you not only to
turn over the e-mail address,
579
00:26:43,869 --> 00:26:45,303
but to contact
the user's ISP
580
00:26:45,370 --> 00:26:47,236
and provide the People
with a name and address.
581
00:26:47,940 --> 00:26:50,204
I was prepared for
that ruling, Your Honor.
582
00:26:51,477 --> 00:26:54,845
For the record, Nu-G
583
00:26:55,481 --> 00:27:00,009
is Anatoly Vozniak
ofZhitomir, Ukraine.
584
00:27:01,787 --> 00:27:03,585
Good luck, Mr. McCoy.
585
00:27:12,231 --> 00:27:13,528
Mr. Foreman?
586
00:27:13,866 --> 00:27:14,890
What are you doing here?
587
00:27:14,967 --> 00:27:16,025
Looking for you.
588
00:27:16,101 --> 00:27:17,933
Ain't I supposed to have
a lawyer or something?
589
00:27:18,003 --> 00:27:19,562
Look, you don't have
to talk. Just listen.
590
00:27:19,638 --> 00:27:20,799
I already listened.
591
00:27:20,873 --> 00:27:23,308
Stephen, it doesn't
make any sense, okay?
592
00:27:23,375 --> 00:27:25,571
I've talked to your
parents and your school.
593
00:27:25,644 --> 00:27:27,772
I've seen
Psycho Harrison's records.
594
00:27:27,846 --> 00:27:29,712
I think I know
what's going on.
595
00:27:30,149 --> 00:27:32,117
You don't know
a thing about me, lady.
596
00:27:32,184 --> 00:27:35,711
I know that RC Caldwell was
supposed to be a straight shooter.
597
00:27:35,787 --> 00:27:38,654
That he was trying to steer
you in the right direction.
598
00:27:38,724 --> 00:27:39,919
Whatever, man.
599
00:27:39,992 --> 00:27:44,293
And that you tried to save his
life after Harrison shot him.
600
00:27:49,468 --> 00:27:52,369
This was a war for
your soul, wasn't it?
601
00:27:54,940 --> 00:27:56,339
Are you trying
to protect Harrison
602
00:27:56,408 --> 00:27:58,638
out of some code
you have on the streets?
603
00:27:58,911 --> 00:28:01,608
I ain't trying to protect
nobody but myself.
604
00:28:01,847 --> 00:28:04,873
Why? Because you think
you might end up like RC?
605
00:28:06,919 --> 00:28:11,356
Look, Stephen, you're a decent
kid, you've got a lot of talent.
606
00:28:14,293 --> 00:28:16,694
Don't make us prosecute you.
607
00:28:20,599 --> 00:28:22,033
L gotta g0-
608
00:28:29,908 --> 00:28:33,105
I don't suppose you've been
able to locate Mr. Vozniak.
609
00:28:33,178 --> 00:28:37,115
He hasn't returned my e-mail.
I don't know if this speaks
610
00:28:37,182 --> 00:28:41,449
to the ubiquity of hip-hop or the
fluidity of information in cyberspace.
611
00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:43,750
I still think that
there's something to it.
612
00:28:43,822 --> 00:28:47,725
It's time we stopped chasing shadows
and got on with the prosecution.
613
00:28:48,126 --> 00:28:49,423
We're just going
to ignore evidence
614
00:28:49,494 --> 00:28:51,121
that somebody else
committed this crime?
615
00:28:51,196 --> 00:28:52,891
It's not evidence.
It's a rumor.
616
00:28:52,965 --> 00:28:55,627
We know that somebody tried
to save Caldwell's life.
617
00:28:55,701 --> 00:28:58,568
And if it was Foreman, he's had
every opportunity to say so
618
00:28:58,637 --> 00:29:00,571
before and after
we told him about it.
619
00:29:00,639 --> 00:29:05,133
The principal of his high school, his
pastor, everybody that I've spoken to
620
00:29:05,210 --> 00:29:07,542
doesn't think that he could've
have killed this man.
621
00:29:07,613 --> 00:29:09,308
JACK: Did you play
Foreman's recounting
622
00:29:09,381 --> 00:29:12,351
of the Queens murder
to these character witnesses?
623
00:29:12,417 --> 00:29:14,442
Foreman holds the
key to his own fate.
624
00:29:14,519 --> 00:29:17,454
If he's not helping himself, then
in all probability, he's complicit.
625
00:29:17,522 --> 00:29:20,082
Or he was just protecting his
friend, Anthony Harrison.
626
00:29:20,158 --> 00:29:22,559
If that's true,
our best strategy
627
00:29:22,628 --> 00:29:24,426
is to forge ahead
and call his bluff.
628
00:29:25,631 --> 00:29:28,100
Are there any hard facts
that support a theory
629
00:29:28,166 --> 00:29:29,827
that this Harrison
fellow was involved?
630
00:29:30,869 --> 00:29:31,893
No.
631
00:29:31,970 --> 00:29:34,234
Do we have a case
against Foreman or not?
632
00:29:34,306 --> 00:29:35,330
Absolutely.
633
00:29:35,407 --> 00:29:37,068
Then try it.
634
00:29:43,949 --> 00:29:46,941
And where was this
CD found, Detective Fontana?
635
00:29:47,019 --> 00:29:50,717
It was found in a console at the
studios of Ronald Caldwell.
636
00:29:51,290 --> 00:29:53,384
It was recovered by the
Crime Scene Unit personnel
637
00:29:53,458 --> 00:29:54,926
on the night that
he was murdered.
638
00:29:55,193 --> 00:29:57,457
And did you subsequently
have the opportunity
639
00:29:57,529 --> 00:29:59,827
to listen to the second
track of this CD?
640
00:29:59,898 --> 00:30:01,093
Yes, I did.
641
00:30:02,601 --> 00:30:04,433
Could you tell the jury
what you heard?
642
00:30:04,503 --> 00:30:06,938
I heard Stephen Foreman,
4-Strike,
643
00:30:07,005 --> 00:30:10,441
talking about a man that he robbed
and murdered, a man named Santo,
644
00:30:10,509 --> 00:30:13,501
using a orange Delecta soda
pop bottle as a silencer.
645
00:30:14,646 --> 00:30:16,705
Like the one found
at the crime scene?
646
00:30:16,782 --> 00:30:18,546
Same brand, same flavor.
647
00:30:18,617 --> 00:30:20,984
And what did you do after
you'd listened to this CD?
648
00:30:21,053 --> 00:30:24,921
My partner and I confirmed that there
was a man named Santo Villanueva
649
00:30:24,990 --> 00:30:28,324
who was murdered in the confines
of the 111 Precinct last year.
650
00:30:29,761 --> 00:30:31,024
Thank you.
651
00:30:32,230 --> 00:30:35,359
SILVERMAN: Are you a connoisseur
of hip hop music, Detective?
652
00:30:35,834 --> 00:30:36,824
FONTANA: Certainly not.
653
00:30:37,102 --> 00:30:38,297
SILVERMAN: So you're
not aware of the fact
654
00:30:38,370 --> 00:30:40,134
that many of the lyrics
in a rap song
655
00:30:40,205 --> 00:30:42,469
are not meant to
be taken literally?
656
00:30:42,874 --> 00:30:44,774
These were pretty
specific lyrics.
657
00:30:44,843 --> 00:30:48,211
Oh. So when
Frank Sinatra sang
658
00:30:48,280 --> 00:30:51,443
Fly Me to Moon, he was
talking about space travel?
659
00:30:52,451 --> 00:30:53,976
That's a
ridiculous question.
660
00:30:54,052 --> 00:30:55,349
Move to strike, Judge.
661
00:30:55,454 --> 00:30:56,546
Granted.
662
00:30:56,621 --> 00:31:00,319
Then what is the difference
between the two, Detective?
663
00:31:01,393 --> 00:31:05,091
Well, for one thing, OI' Blue Eyes
wasn't bragging about killing anybody.
664
00:31:08,200 --> 00:31:09,292
Well, yeah.
I remember that night.
665
00:31:09,368 --> 00:31:11,769
I was watching the
Music Awards on TV.
666
00:31:11,837 --> 00:31:13,532
SILVERMAN: And where was
your son at the time?
667
00:31:13,605 --> 00:31:15,937
In the living room, sitting
right next to me on the sofa,
668
00:31:16,007 --> 00:31:17,202
watching the show.
669
00:31:22,914 --> 00:31:24,939
Are you aware
there was evidence
670
00:31:25,016 --> 00:31:27,485
from the crime scene
on your son's shoe?
671
00:31:27,853 --> 00:31:30,220
Stephen could have picked
that up off the street.
672
00:31:30,288 --> 00:31:33,690
You subscribe to Metropolitan
Cable, don't you, Mr. Foreman?
673
00:31:33,759 --> 00:31:34,783
Yeah, that's right.
674
00:31:34,860 --> 00:31:38,023
Which televisions in your home
are connected to that service?
675
00:31:38,764 --> 00:31:40,357
Well, both of them.
One in the living room
676
00:31:40,432 --> 00:31:41,957
and the one
in Stephen's room.
677
00:31:42,334 --> 00:31:46,464
If I showed you an affidavit
from Metropolitan Cable
678
00:31:46,538 --> 00:31:48,506
indicating that there was
a service interruption
679
00:31:48,573 --> 00:31:52,009
in your neighborhood that night,
would that change your testimony?
680
00:31:53,979 --> 00:31:59,110
Oh, yes, you know, I do have a small
portable that I keep in the closet.
681
00:31:59,718 --> 00:32:01,152
Now I remember.
682
00:32:01,820 --> 00:32:04,790
Stephen and I were watching the
show on that one in the kitchen.
683
00:32:05,490 --> 00:32:07,015
JACK: Nothing further.
684
00:32:09,995 --> 00:32:12,987
Your Honor, I would like to
add a witness to my list.
685
00:32:13,365 --> 00:32:14,526
Your Honor!
686
00:32:14,599 --> 00:32:16,260
Chambers, Mr. Silverman.
687
00:32:22,240 --> 00:32:25,175
Change of plans because your alibi
witness got toasted, Mr. Silverman?
688
00:32:25,243 --> 00:32:26,540
I didn't know
about this witness
689
00:32:26,611 --> 00:32:29,046
until he approached me
in court just now.
690
00:32:29,114 --> 00:32:30,707
Any objections, Mr. McCoy?
691
00:32:30,782 --> 00:32:32,910
I can't answer
without an offer of proof.
692
00:32:33,452 --> 00:32:35,318
The witness' name
is Anthony Harrison.
693
00:32:35,387 --> 00:32:38,652
He'll testify that although
Stephen Foreman was present
694
00:32:38,723 --> 00:32:40,384
when Caldwell was shot,
695
00:32:40,459 --> 00:32:42,723
he himself was the shooter.
696
00:32:44,529 --> 00:32:45,792
I'm speechless, Judge.
697
00:32:45,864 --> 00:32:47,662
First time for everything,
hey Jack?
698
00:32:47,732 --> 00:32:49,291
This man is gonna
take the stand
699
00:32:49,367 --> 00:32:51,267
and confess under
oath to a murder?
700
00:32:51,403 --> 00:32:53,895
I can assure you
I'm surprised as you are.
701
00:32:53,972 --> 00:32:55,064
JACK: "Surprised"
is not the word.
702
00:32:55,140 --> 00:32:56,574
I hope the Court sees
this for what it is,
703
00:32:56,641 --> 00:32:58,234
an attempt to
sabotage the trial.
704
00:32:58,310 --> 00:33:02,474
His testimony is admissible
as a matter of due process.
705
00:33:02,948 --> 00:33:05,315
I'm shocked and
awed myself, Mr. McCoy,
706
00:33:05,383 --> 00:33:06,748
but if I don't allow this,
707
00:33:06,818 --> 00:33:09,082
in my opinion,
it's a slam-dunk reversal.
708
00:33:09,821 --> 00:33:12,791
The People request
a continuance to investigate.
709
00:33:13,391 --> 00:33:14,881
Seventy-two hours.
710
00:33:14,960 --> 00:33:17,554
And while you're doing that,
I'll appoint a lawyer
711
00:33:17,629 --> 00:33:20,291
for Mr. Harrison to make sure
he's not out of his mind.
712
00:33:21,233 --> 00:33:23,065
Nobody does this out of the
goodness of their heart.
713
00:33:23,134 --> 00:33:25,603
I'm going to pay a visit
to Foreman's bankroll.
714
00:33:26,905 --> 00:33:30,068
We checked with your
client's bank, Mr. Silverman.
715
00:33:30,141 --> 00:33:33,475
As soon as his advance check
from his label cleared,
716
00:33:33,545 --> 00:33:37,573
he withdrew $500,000, cash.
We want to see the money.
717
00:33:37,649 --> 00:33:40,084
Oh, come on, Jack. He doesn't
have to answer to anybody
718
00:33:40,151 --> 00:33:42,142
except Uncle Sam
about that.
719
00:33:42,220 --> 00:33:45,588
Then I'll just assume it's in
Anthony Harrison's mattress.
720
00:33:45,657 --> 00:33:48,558
And Mr. Foreman can add
tampering with a witness
721
00:33:48,627 --> 00:33:51,562
and obstruction of justice
to his list of woes.
722
00:33:52,497 --> 00:33:54,488
What Anthony's sayin'
is the truth.
723
00:33:55,500 --> 00:33:57,161
You just had to pay for it?
724
00:33:57,235 --> 00:33:59,567
What am I gonna do?
Say "pretty please?"
725
00:34:01,706 --> 00:34:04,676
Besides, Anthony said we could
both beat the case this way.
726
00:34:04,743 --> 00:34:07,735
Why am I hearing this for the
first time, Mr. Foreman?
727
00:34:07,812 --> 00:34:10,008
Anthony's nickname
is Psycho.
728
00:34:12,117 --> 00:34:13,209
Get it?
729
00:34:13,351 --> 00:34:16,252
And what reason did he have
to kill Ronald Caldwell?
730
00:34:18,356 --> 00:34:20,620
I tell you the whole story,
what's gonna happen?
731
00:34:20,692 --> 00:34:23,559
Your choice. We can hear
Harrison's version on the stand.
732
00:34:23,628 --> 00:34:25,096
Or yours.
733
00:34:30,402 --> 00:34:31,665
What should I do?
734
00:34:33,505 --> 00:34:35,473
If it's true, Stephen,
735
00:34:36,808 --> 00:34:38,333
better start talking.
736
00:34:41,012 --> 00:34:42,446
All right.
737
00:34:44,816 --> 00:34:48,719
Psycho wanted me to lend him my first
advance to move a kilo of dope.
738
00:34:49,254 --> 00:34:53,418
Tellin' me how we could turn 90 into
300-somethin' in a couple of weeks time.
739
00:34:53,992 --> 00:34:57,189
I was gonna do it, you know,
'cause he helped me out.
740
00:34:58,897 --> 00:35:00,160
But then RC
talked me down,
741
00:35:00,231 --> 00:35:02,222
told me to stay
clear of all that.
742
00:35:02,801 --> 00:35:06,066
So killing RC was Harrison's way
to guarantee he'd get the loan?
743
00:35:06,137 --> 00:35:07,366
That's right.
744
00:35:10,075 --> 00:35:12,442
I couldn't believe
he shot RC.
745
00:35:14,245 --> 00:35:16,976
I tried to do CPR on
him, but it didn't work.
746
00:35:18,249 --> 00:35:20,445
Who buzzed Harrison
into the studio?
747
00:35:20,719 --> 00:35:23,051
I did. But I didn't know
he was gonna shoot him.
748
00:35:23,121 --> 00:35:25,590
And what about the murder
in Queens, Mr. Foreman?
749
00:35:25,657 --> 00:35:27,716
I had nothing
to do with that.
750
00:35:27,792 --> 00:35:29,920
Psycho did that
with some other dude.
751
00:35:31,896 --> 00:35:34,661
I just put it in my song
to juice up my rep.
752
00:35:35,467 --> 00:35:36,866
JACK: I guess it worked.
753
00:35:36,935 --> 00:35:39,632
Guilty or not,
it landed you
754
00:35:39,704 --> 00:35:42,173
smack in the middle
of a murder charge.
755
00:35:46,344 --> 00:35:49,473
So, Mr. Harrison got paid
for appearing in court.
756
00:35:49,547 --> 00:35:51,743
Presumably to tell the truth.
757
00:35:51,816 --> 00:35:53,784
If you believe
what Foreman says.
758
00:35:54,352 --> 00:35:56,184
You don't?
How can I?
759
00:35:56,254 --> 00:35:59,849
These two are playing the criminal
justice system like it's a video game.
760
00:36:00,291 --> 00:36:01,622
Sounds like they're winning.
761
00:36:01,826 --> 00:36:04,193
If we charge Harrison
after he testifies,
762
00:36:04,262 --> 00:36:07,721
he'll take the stand at his own trial
and claim he lied for Foreman.
763
00:36:08,066 --> 00:36:09,966
And he's got
the money to prove it.
764
00:36:10,035 --> 00:36:12,732
And if we move to dismiss,
jeopardy's attached.
765
00:36:13,438 --> 00:36:15,634
Pretty clever for
a couple of teenagers.
766
00:36:16,074 --> 00:36:18,042
Both of them may
get away with murder.
767
00:36:18,109 --> 00:36:20,510
But that assumes
Foreman's guilty.
768
00:36:20,845 --> 00:36:23,109
What, we take
his word for it?
769
00:36:23,181 --> 00:36:25,980
Well, obviously he was caught
somewhere between fear and loyalty.
770
00:36:26,051 --> 00:36:28,110
Well, he sure waited
until the 11th hour
771
00:36:28,186 --> 00:36:29,483
to point the finger
at his friend.
772
00:36:29,554 --> 00:36:31,750
Sooner or later, we're going
to have to face the likelihood
773
00:36:31,823 --> 00:36:32,949
that he's innocent.
774
00:36:34,826 --> 00:36:37,625
What would you have us
do differently, Serena?
775
00:36:39,397 --> 00:36:40,694
Why?
776
00:36:42,434 --> 00:36:44,459
Every time I express
an opinion around here
777
00:36:44,536 --> 00:36:47,164
the last few months,
I get shot down.
778
00:36:53,478 --> 00:36:54,673
(sums)
779
00:36:59,551 --> 00:37:01,781
JUDGE: We've got a huge
problem here, gentlemen.
780
00:37:02,353 --> 00:37:06,051
If Mr. Harrison testifies, it
impugns the integrity of the trial.
781
00:37:06,491 --> 00:37:09,791
And if he doesn't, you'll deprive
my client of his defense.
782
00:37:09,861 --> 00:37:12,353
A bought-and-paid-for
confession is tainted,
783
00:37:12,430 --> 00:37:14,489
whether it's true or false.
784
00:37:14,566 --> 00:37:15,658
Seems to me
there are two choices.
785
00:37:15,734 --> 00:37:18,169
And they're both yours,
Mr. McCoy.
786
00:37:18,236 --> 00:37:20,671
If you're so concerned about
the integrity of the trial,
787
00:37:20,739 --> 00:37:22,571
I'll grant your
motion for dismissal.
788
00:37:22,941 --> 00:37:26,343
Which means Mr. Foreman would walk
away without ajuryjudging his guilt.
789
00:37:26,678 --> 00:37:29,875
That's right.
Or, Mr. Harrison can testify.
790
00:37:34,352 --> 00:37:35,945
Door number two.
791
00:37:37,989 --> 00:37:40,515
Well, I knew Stephen was gonna
be in the studio that night,
792
00:37:40,592 --> 00:37:42,686
so I went through there.
793
00:37:43,428 --> 00:37:44,793
SILVERMAN: What happened then?
794
00:37:45,764 --> 00:37:47,562
Stephen buzzed me in.
795
00:37:47,999 --> 00:37:49,660
I went up the steps,
796
00:37:49,734 --> 00:37:52,635
that's where I started to tape
the bottle onto my pistol.
797
00:37:53,705 --> 00:37:55,537
From that point,
I came in blazin'.
798
00:37:55,607 --> 00:37:57,132
SILVERMAN:
At Ronald Caldwell?
799
00:37:57,208 --> 00:37:58,334
Yup.
800
00:37:58,877 --> 00:38:02,074
Did Stephen have anything at all
to do with this, Mr. Harrison?
801
00:38:02,580 --> 00:38:03,741
No.
802
00:38:03,815 --> 00:38:06,011
He had nothin' to do with it.
Nothin' at all.
803
00:38:06,417 --> 00:38:08,749
SILVERMAN: And after
you shot Mr. Caldwell?
804
00:38:09,254 --> 00:38:11,279
HARRISON:
Made moves, took off.
805
00:38:11,356 --> 00:38:14,417
Wiped my bottle down,
threw it down the steps.
806
00:38:16,261 --> 00:38:18,787
I don't wanna be carryin' nothin'
like that on the street.
807
00:38:21,266 --> 00:38:22,791
Nothing further.
808
00:38:26,771 --> 00:38:29,706
You realize you're admitting
to a murder, Mr. Harrison?
809
00:38:29,774 --> 00:38:30,798
I do.
810
00:38:30,875 --> 00:38:34,004
And that you can get
up to 25-to-life for that?
811
00:38:35,513 --> 00:38:37,174
A lawyer
already told me that.
812
00:38:37,615 --> 00:38:39,379
Then why do this,
Mr. Harrison?
813
00:38:39,884 --> 00:38:41,648
Well, 'cause for one thing,
814
00:38:42,086 --> 00:38:44,919
I don't need to see my man go
down for somethin' I done did.
815
00:38:45,290 --> 00:38:48,920
And the other thing is that Mr.
Foreman paid you to be here today?
816
00:38:49,794 --> 00:38:51,421
Iwouldn't know
nothin' about that.
817
00:38:51,496 --> 00:38:55,057
Do you deny that Mr.
Foreman gave you $500,000
818
00:38:55,133 --> 00:38:57,659
of his advance from
Detention Records?
819
00:38:57,735 --> 00:39:00,397
I'm here 'cause it's
the right thing to do.
820
00:39:02,774 --> 00:39:05,038
Was it also
the right thing to do
821
00:39:06,044 --> 00:39:10,914
when you sold crack to an undercover
officer on August 1st, 2002?
822
00:39:10,982 --> 00:39:16,045
Or when you possessed a TEC-9
semi-automatic on March 17th, 2001?
823
00:39:17,222 --> 00:39:19,088
I ain't sayin' I'm an angel.
824
00:39:19,157 --> 00:39:23,594
Or how about when you murdered Santo
Villanueva in Queens last year
825
00:39:23,661 --> 00:39:26,528
using the same type
of soda-bottle silencer
826
00:39:26,598 --> 00:39:29,590
as you did
to kill Ronald Caldwell?
827
00:39:31,436 --> 00:39:33,837
I don't know what
you're talkin' about.
828
00:39:36,841 --> 00:39:39,071
Of course you don't,
Mr. Harrison.
829
00:39:42,814 --> 00:39:44,248
The defense rests.
830
00:39:46,751 --> 00:39:49,948
Ah, if it ain't my
old pal, Psycho-case.
831
00:39:50,021 --> 00:39:51,250
What's goin' on, fellas?
832
00:39:51,322 --> 00:39:52,687
You're under arrest
for murder.
833
00:39:52,757 --> 00:39:54,725
Yeah, so I do a few months
waitin' for trial.
834
00:39:54,792 --> 00:39:56,021
Man, that ain't gonna stick.
835
00:39:56,094 --> 00:39:58,062
Hey. You're being arrested
for the murder
836
00:39:58,129 --> 00:40:00,530
of Santo Villanueva in Queens.
837
00:40:00,598 --> 00:40:01,656
Who was that?
838
00:40:01,733 --> 00:40:03,064
Forgot all about that one,
didn't you?
839
00:40:03,134 --> 00:40:05,933
And the icing on the cake,
it's murder one.
840
00:40:06,004 --> 00:40:09,030
I'll give you three guesses as to who
the star witness is going to be.
841
00:40:12,010 --> 00:40:14,104
JUDGE: I have a note from the jury
that you've reached a verdict.
842
00:40:14,178 --> 00:40:15,543
JURY FOREWOMAN:
We have, Your Honor.
843
00:40:15,613 --> 00:40:16,705
How do you find?
844
00:40:16,881 --> 00:40:18,940
We find Stephen Foreman
845
00:40:19,017 --> 00:40:22,453
not guilty of murder
in the second degree.
846
00:40:23,254 --> 00:40:25,382
That's what I'm
talking about, man.
847
00:40:26,457 --> 00:40:28,755
JUDGE: I'd like to thank the members
of the jury for their service.
848
00:40:28,826 --> 00:40:30,726
The defendant is discharged.
849
00:40:30,795 --> 00:40:32,058
Just a moment,
Your Honor.
850
00:40:32,130 --> 00:40:36,124
I ask that Mr. Foreman be placed
under arrest by the court officers.
851
00:40:36,301 --> 00:40:37,325
For what?
852
00:40:37,402 --> 00:40:38,927
Tampering with a witness.
853
00:40:39,003 --> 00:40:41,267
And Queens County has
requested that he be detained
854
00:40:41,339 --> 00:40:44,934
as a material witness in the
murder of Santo Villanueva.
855
00:40:54,752 --> 00:40:56,083
Jack's already left.
856
00:40:57,221 --> 00:40:59,315
Yeah, I know.
I'm glad you called.
857
00:40:59,390 --> 00:41:01,484
You know, lthought that we
could use the tampering charge
858
00:41:01,559 --> 00:41:04,722
as leverage to get Foreman to
tell the Queens grand jury
859
00:41:04,796 --> 00:41:06,821
what he knows about
the Villanueva murder.
860
00:41:06,931 --> 00:41:09,423
Well, he'll be out soon,
making records.
861
00:41:10,268 --> 00:41:13,863
And the Caldwell murder will go into
the books without a conviction.
862
00:41:15,907 --> 00:41:18,433
Well, it's not
a perfect resolution.
863
00:41:20,044 --> 00:41:21,307
But, you know,
Anthony Harrison
864
00:41:21,379 --> 00:41:23,507
is looking at a
life sentence in Queens.
865
00:41:25,450 --> 00:41:27,282
And as for Foreman,
866
00:41:27,352 --> 00:41:29,184
you've known
my position all along.
867
00:41:30,788 --> 00:41:34,053
Yeah, well, actually
that's why I called.
868
00:41:35,259 --> 00:41:37,591
You know, Serena,
if you were right,
869
00:41:37,662 --> 00:41:39,494
you were right
for the wrong reasons.
870
00:41:41,032 --> 00:41:42,022
Meaning?
871
00:41:42,266 --> 00:41:44,360
Emotion, not facts.
872
00:41:45,570 --> 00:41:47,538
What was it you said?
Everyone that you talked to
873
00:41:47,605 --> 00:41:49,733
said that he couldn't
have killed that man?
874
00:41:51,342 --> 00:41:54,004
My emotional responses
make me...
875
00:41:54,078 --> 00:41:55,341
An advocate.
876
00:41:56,781 --> 00:41:58,374
You're a superb attorney
877
00:41:58,449 --> 00:42:01,783
and you ought to be involved with
cases that feed your passion.
878
00:42:03,688 --> 00:42:05,349
Well,
that would be wonderful.
879
00:42:05,423 --> 00:42:07,187
But Serena, you must know
880
00:42:07,258 --> 00:42:09,488
that will not happen
in this office.
881
00:42:10,661 --> 00:42:11,856
It can't.
882
00:42:13,064 --> 00:42:16,659
Now, a prosecutor can be
zealous, but not passionate.
883
00:42:17,468 --> 00:42:19,698
Advocacy is warm-blooded.
884
00:42:21,005 --> 00:42:22,734
Enforcement's gotta
be cold-blooded.
885
00:42:23,574 --> 00:42:25,235
And blind and even handed.
886
00:42:31,215 --> 00:42:33,843
Does Jack feel as strongly
about this as you do?
887
00:42:34,952 --> 00:42:36,215
No,
888
00:42:36,287 --> 00:42:39,587
but it's my office and my
decision and he accepts that.
889
00:42:42,927 --> 00:42:45,988
A decision. You've
already made a decision?
890
00:42:46,931 --> 00:42:48,160
Yes.
891
00:42:49,534 --> 00:42:51,002
I have.
892
00:42:51,602 --> 00:42:52,763
You're fired.
893
00:42:58,276 --> 00:43:00,938
(SIGHS) Is this
because I'm a lesbian?
894
00:43:03,047 --> 00:43:06,017
No. Of course not.
895
00:43:07,251 --> 00:43:08,446
No.
896
00:43:11,355 --> 00:43:12,618
Good.
897
00:43:15,493 --> 00:43:16,790
Good.
