1
00:00:01,872 --> 00:00:03,567
In the criminal justice system
2
00:00:03,640 --> 00:00:07,576
the people are represented by two
separate yet equally important groups,
3
00:00:07,644 --> 00:00:09,441
the police
who investigate crime
4
00:00:09,513 --> 00:00:12,243
and the district attorneys
who prosecute the offenders.
5
00:00:12,316 --> 00:00:14,113
These are their stories.
6
00:00:17,186 --> 00:00:20,748
Come on, Mike. I got to stuff the
turkey and put it in the oven.
7
00:00:20,824 --> 00:00:21,848
There's time.
8
00:00:21,925 --> 00:00:25,725
Oh, no, they're gonna be here at noon.
All 17 of them.
9
00:00:25,796 --> 00:00:28,822
Count your blessings.
Your in-laws live 3,000 miles away.
10
00:00:28,899 --> 00:00:30,491
That's right, Buster.
11
00:00:30,567 --> 00:00:32,728
And if any of them cross the
Mississippi, I'm out of here.
12
00:00:32,803 --> 00:00:34,134
Mommy, Mommy!
13
00:00:34,204 --> 00:00:37,264
Chasen chopped up Baboo, and now
he's gonna hurt Paddington!
14
00:00:37,341 --> 00:00:39,571
No, no, no, Janey, honey,
he's just pretending.
15
00:00:39,643 --> 00:00:41,508
No, he's not. Look!
16
00:00:41,578 --> 00:00:43,068
Oh, God.
17
00:00:45,716 --> 00:00:48,343
Chasen, stop this minute!
Give me that.
18
00:00:49,519 --> 00:00:50,781
Where did you get this?
19
00:00:50,853 --> 00:00:51,979
I found it outside.
20
00:00:52,054 --> 00:00:53,988
Oh, my God.
Where did that come from?
21
00:00:54,056 --> 00:00:56,048
He says he found it.
22
00:00:56,126 --> 00:00:59,186
Is that blood on the handle?
Oh, my God, Chasen.
23
00:00:59,963 --> 00:01:02,625
Well, he looks okay.
I don't see any cuts.
24
00:01:02,699 --> 00:01:04,428
Maybe this isn't his blood.
25
00:01:05,702 --> 00:01:07,499
Little kid
out on the Island found it.
26
00:01:07,571 --> 00:01:09,869
His parents turned it
over to the Suffolk police.
27
00:01:09,940 --> 00:01:12,033
And here it is.
So what is it?
28
00:01:12,109 --> 00:01:15,943
It's a barong. Used by the
Moro tribe in the Philippines.
29
00:01:16,713 --> 00:01:18,146
I guess
they have a local chapter.
30
00:01:18,215 --> 00:01:19,238
Thing looks old.
31
00:01:19,315 --> 00:01:21,249
It's almost 100 years old.
32
00:01:21,317 --> 00:01:24,411
I found blood on the grip
and at the blade joint.
33
00:01:24,487 --> 00:01:27,320
A-blood negative, same as your
headless lady, Heidi Ellison.
34
00:01:27,390 --> 00:01:30,382
Yeah, but a lot of people besides
her have that blood type.
35
00:01:30,459 --> 00:01:33,054
See these nicks
on the true edge?
36
00:01:33,931 --> 00:01:34,989
I matched them to marks
37
00:01:35,065 --> 00:01:39,695
found on the victim's cervical
vertebrae, radii and tibiae.
38
00:01:40,337 --> 00:01:43,773
This is your murder weapon, fellows.
All the way from the South Pacific.
39
00:01:44,441 --> 00:01:46,671
Saved her
a trip to Bora-Bora.
40
00:02:36,025 --> 00:02:39,461
Chasen, sweetheart, just tell
them where you found it.
41
00:02:39,895 --> 00:02:43,093
You know, everybody's real proud
of you for finding the sword.
42
00:02:43,166 --> 00:02:45,760
Hey, Chasen, check this out.
43
00:02:45,836 --> 00:02:49,203
My lieutenant's gonna make you
a special deputy detective.
44
00:02:49,273 --> 00:02:52,333
That means a personal tour
through the squad room, okay?
45
00:02:52,409 --> 00:02:55,900
But first you got to tell us
where you found the sword.
46
00:02:55,978 --> 00:02:57,878
It was in the field
behind my school.
47
00:02:57,947 --> 00:02:59,710
Yeah?
How did you find it?
48
00:02:59,782 --> 00:03:01,773
We were building a snow fort.
49
00:03:01,851 --> 00:03:03,011
So it was under the snow?
50
00:03:03,085 --> 00:03:04,177
Uh-huh.
51
00:03:04,253 --> 00:03:06,721
Do you remember
what day that was?
52
00:03:06,789 --> 00:03:10,316
I think it was about
two weeks ago, before school.
53
00:03:10,393 --> 00:03:13,157
And do you remember anything
else that happened that day?
54
00:03:13,229 --> 00:03:17,188
Miss Angeli took us to the Museum of
Natural History to learn about whales.
55
00:03:18,100 --> 00:03:21,161
The machete
came from Heidi Ellison's den.
56
00:03:21,238 --> 00:03:23,468
Her assistant remembers it
hanging on a wall.
57
00:03:23,540 --> 00:03:27,669
I'm waiting for you to tell me
it came with a set of Grant's fingerprints.
58
00:03:27,743 --> 00:03:29,973
Sorry. - And
there's another problem.
59
00:03:30,046 --> 00:03:34,005
The motel in New Paltz has him
checking in at a quarter to midnight.
60
00:03:34,083 --> 00:03:36,950
We're not sure that gives him enough
time to dump this thing in Islip.
61
00:03:37,019 --> 00:03:38,543
Well, maybe he
ditched it some other day.
62
00:03:38,621 --> 00:03:41,249
The boy could be wrong about
finding it the next morning.
63
00:03:41,324 --> 00:03:45,192
No, the school confirmed the class trip
was the day after Ellison was killed.
64
00:03:45,261 --> 00:03:47,456
And the weather bureau
said it snowed that night,
65
00:03:47,530 --> 00:03:50,966
which fits in with the kid's story
that the knife was covered with snow.
66
00:03:51,033 --> 00:03:53,900
If Grant wasn't in Islip,
maybe Eddie Newman was.
67
00:03:53,969 --> 00:03:55,198
Wasn't he in LA?
68
00:03:55,272 --> 00:03:58,001
He was with his cell phone,
which could be anywhere.
69
00:03:58,074 --> 00:04:01,043
LAPD says it could take a week
to get his phone records.
70
00:04:01,143 --> 00:04:04,112
Well, before we start
apologizing to Mr. Grant,
71
00:04:04,180 --> 00:04:06,808
retrace his timeline
and nail it down.
72
00:04:09,452 --> 00:04:12,319
LT, could you sign this?
73
00:04:14,123 --> 00:04:15,886
"This certificate
identifies the holder
74
00:04:15,958 --> 00:04:20,156
"as a special deputy detective of the
New York City Police Department."
75
00:04:20,463 --> 00:04:22,454
Special deputy detective?
76
00:04:22,531 --> 00:04:25,500
I made it up on my computer
for the kid. Just sign it.
77
00:04:25,568 --> 00:04:27,728
Whatever you say, Sheriff.
78
00:04:27,802 --> 00:04:29,531
This is cute.
79
00:04:29,971 --> 00:04:32,372
This is very cute.
80
00:04:32,641 --> 00:04:36,042
Okay, I give him 15 minutes to argue
and bury the machete in her head.
81
00:04:36,112 --> 00:04:38,080
Yeah, fine.
But now comes the tricky part.
82
00:04:38,147 --> 00:04:40,308
It says here the Westies
diced and bagged Ruby Stein
83
00:04:40,383 --> 00:04:42,408
in the ladies' room
of a bar in under an hour.
84
00:04:42,485 --> 00:04:44,715
Yeah, that's three
guys working together.
85
00:04:44,787 --> 00:04:46,846
Now, I remember
one mutt up in the Bronx
86
00:04:46,922 --> 00:04:51,188
cut his mother-in-law up into eight pieces
while his wife was out getting the groceries.
87
00:04:51,260 --> 00:04:52,852
Grant's pretty muscled up.
88
00:04:52,928 --> 00:04:55,192
A couple of good whacks to
the head, hands and the feet.
89
00:04:55,264 --> 00:04:56,629
What, about five minutes?
90
00:04:56,699 --> 00:04:59,189
Okay, so 15 more to clean up,
91
00:04:59,267 --> 00:05:01,861
and another 10 to get
everything down to the car.
92
00:05:01,936 --> 00:05:05,303
Say he got into it with her right
after she called the doorman.
93
00:05:05,373 --> 00:05:07,001
By a quarter past 8:00,
he's ready to go.
94
00:05:07,076 --> 00:05:09,772
Yeah, so am I
with a couple of Bromos.
95
00:05:09,845 --> 00:05:11,676
Here's your change.
Thank you.
96
00:05:11,747 --> 00:05:14,409
Okay, he dumps the head in the alley.
That's two minutes.
97
00:05:14,483 --> 00:05:16,212
Now, the torso's
a bigger handful,
98
00:05:16,285 --> 00:05:19,015
plus he actually has to
get the car to the river.
99
00:05:19,088 --> 00:05:23,115
Twenty minutes. That puts him heading
to Islip at about a quarter to 9:00.
100
00:05:23,192 --> 00:05:26,650
Islip to New Paltz
is about 120 miles.
101
00:05:26,729 --> 00:05:29,493
That's two hours minimum, if he's
gonna get there before midnight.
102
00:05:29,565 --> 00:05:32,397
Meaning he has to
get out of Islip by 9:30,
103
00:05:32,467 --> 00:05:35,334
which gives him 45 minutes
to get there from here.
104
00:05:35,403 --> 00:05:38,600
Fifty miles on the LIE on a weeknight?
That's pushing it.
105
00:05:38,673 --> 00:05:40,504
Yeah, if you drive
like an old lady.
106
00:05:43,612 --> 00:05:45,102
December 5th on the LIE?
107
00:05:45,181 --> 00:05:47,240
East or westbound?
Eastbound to Islip.
108
00:05:47,316 --> 00:05:49,216
Okay. Give me a couple.
109
00:05:50,252 --> 00:05:52,311
So what'd you do with Lisa?
You show her the sights?
110
00:05:52,388 --> 00:05:53,685
Showed her the precinct.
111
00:05:53,756 --> 00:05:55,485
The girl flies in
all the way from California...
112
00:05:55,558 --> 00:05:58,152
Well, jumping in the sack with her is
not gonna save my marriage, Lennie.
113
00:05:58,227 --> 00:06:00,252
Well, neither is your
on-and-off separation.
114
00:06:00,329 --> 00:06:01,353
The expert speaks.
115
00:06:01,430 --> 00:06:03,260
Hey, I know what doesn't work.
116
00:06:03,331 --> 00:06:06,323
Believe me, if your wife wanted
a doormat, she'd go to Sears.
117
00:06:06,401 --> 00:06:09,768
Put a clock on it, Rey, so the two
of you can get on with your lives.
118
00:06:09,838 --> 00:06:12,534
All right, fellows,
you want to come around here?
119
00:06:12,607 --> 00:06:15,440
Okay, this is what we got.
120
00:06:15,844 --> 00:06:19,303
We got a 15-minute delay at the
Cross Island Parkway junction.
121
00:06:19,381 --> 00:06:21,713
A car ran out of gas
in the second lane.
122
00:06:21,784 --> 00:06:25,049
Then a 10-minute delay
just before Interchange 42.
123
00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:27,520
You like
living in the suburbs?
124
00:06:27,590 --> 00:06:32,254
Last thing. The Islip off-ramp's been
closed for repairs the last three weeks.
125
00:06:32,661 --> 00:06:34,685
Detour adds another 20 minutes.
126
00:06:34,762 --> 00:06:36,593
Okay, thanks. All right.
Take it easy.
127
00:06:36,664 --> 00:06:37,688
Yeah, appreciate it.
128
00:06:37,765 --> 00:06:42,566
Well, unless Grant grew wings and flew,
there's no way he'd make it in 45 minutes.
129
00:06:42,637 --> 00:06:47,006
Okay, so one of his pals buries the
knife, and he goes up to New Paltz.
130
00:06:47,075 --> 00:06:49,009
Yeah, pretty dumb
to involve somebody else.
131
00:06:49,077 --> 00:06:51,443
Hey, they don't take
steroids to build brains.
132
00:06:51,513 --> 00:06:54,347
Well, whoever dropped the
knife, he wasn't invisible.
133
00:06:54,416 --> 00:06:56,350
Someone might've seen him.
134
00:06:56,418 --> 00:06:59,683
Tuesday. Right, the Bulls.
Rodman had blue hair.
135
00:06:59,755 --> 00:07:01,450
Got ejected
during the second quarter.
136
00:07:01,524 --> 00:07:02,548
Let me ask you something.
137
00:07:02,625 --> 00:07:05,388
Did you notice any unusual
activity in the field over there?
138
00:07:05,460 --> 00:07:07,485
I was watching the game.
It was a slow night.
139
00:07:07,562 --> 00:07:09,086
That's what everybody says.
140
00:07:09,163 --> 00:07:11,154
You have any
interesting customers?
141
00:07:11,232 --> 00:07:13,723
Locals.
Except for a city cab.
142
00:07:13,801 --> 00:07:16,065
Stopped for directions
during the fourth quarter.
143
00:07:16,137 --> 00:07:17,866
What was he doing
all the way out here?
144
00:07:17,939 --> 00:07:20,635
He was dropping a fare off from
Manhattan a couple of blocks from here.
145
00:07:20,708 --> 00:07:21,970
What, was he lost?
146
00:07:22,043 --> 00:07:24,477
I'm sure he knows
his way around Calcutta.
147
00:07:24,546 --> 00:07:26,946
He was yammering about his
fare catching a plane.
148
00:07:27,015 --> 00:07:28,915
Isn't MacArthur Airport
just down the road?
149
00:07:28,983 --> 00:07:31,350
Yeah. A half mile.
And he dropped his fare here?
150
00:07:31,420 --> 00:07:35,049
Was I speaking Martian? Yeah.
A couple of blocks from here.
151
00:07:37,158 --> 00:07:38,887
Yeah.
I guess our guy figured
152
00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:42,225
they wouldn't let him take
his barong on the plane.
153
00:07:42,697 --> 00:07:47,066
The last commercial flight leaves
at 8:45, non-stop to Albany.
154
00:07:47,135 --> 00:07:48,693
Then what?
You roll up the runways?
155
00:07:48,770 --> 00:07:51,204
The noise abatement
regs kick in.
156
00:07:51,272 --> 00:07:53,900
We're allowed two cargo flights
an hour till 1:00 a.m.
157
00:07:53,975 --> 00:07:56,603
Then we shut down,
unless there's an emergency.
158
00:07:56,678 --> 00:07:58,873
What about the small planes
we saw parked outside?
159
00:07:58,947 --> 00:08:00,972
There's no limit
on private flights.
160
00:08:01,049 --> 00:08:02,641
You check everything
that goes out?
161
00:08:02,717 --> 00:08:06,677
Every plane has to file a flight plan
before it's cleared for takeoff.
162
00:08:06,755 --> 00:08:08,517
Even the little ones.
163
00:08:09,290 --> 00:08:11,451
You need a degree in aeronautics
just to read these.
164
00:08:11,526 --> 00:08:12,788
You mind?
165
00:08:12,860 --> 00:08:15,488
You want everything
after 9:30, right?
166
00:08:15,563 --> 00:08:18,964
Okay, this is the plane's
registration number.
167
00:08:19,033 --> 00:08:20,898
This tells you
the type of plane.
168
00:08:20,969 --> 00:08:24,097
This is the number of people on
board, crew plus passengers.
169
00:08:24,172 --> 00:08:26,106
And this is the destination.
170
00:08:26,174 --> 00:08:27,163
YUL?
171
00:08:27,241 --> 00:08:28,970
Montreal-Dorval Airport.
172
00:08:29,043 --> 00:08:30,271
Everybody knows that, Rey.
173
00:08:30,345 --> 00:08:33,075
You can look it up in this.
174
00:08:33,147 --> 00:08:35,115
And if we want to know
the names of the passengers?
175
00:08:35,183 --> 00:08:39,585
Private flights don't file manifests with us.
You have to talk to the owners.
176
00:08:42,523 --> 00:08:45,048
We went to San Francisco
to meet with Caltone.
177
00:08:45,126 --> 00:08:47,856
They're going public next month,
and we're handling the offering.
178
00:08:47,929 --> 00:08:51,194
Your flight plan said you had
six other passengers on board.
179
00:08:51,265 --> 00:08:52,289
All of them employees?
180
00:08:52,367 --> 00:08:55,029
I had a couple of friends with me.
We played a round at Pebble Beach.
181
00:08:55,103 --> 00:08:56,502
We're gonna need
their names, all right?
182
00:08:56,571 --> 00:08:58,937
Well, I'd like to
get their okay first.
183
00:08:59,007 --> 00:09:02,636
The other nine people we talked
to were very cooperative.
184
00:09:02,710 --> 00:09:05,304
Of course,
they weren't hiding anything.
185
00:09:08,049 --> 00:09:09,880
Who exactly
are you looking for?
186
00:09:09,951 --> 00:09:11,884
Anyone who might've
known Heidi Ellison.
187
00:09:11,952 --> 00:09:13,476
The movie executive?
188
00:09:13,553 --> 00:09:14,918
Well, if you're looking
for people who knew her,
189
00:09:14,988 --> 00:09:16,956
try the G-IV that
cut in front of us.
190
00:09:17,024 --> 00:09:18,322
G-IV?
191
00:09:18,393 --> 00:09:20,054
Gulfstream IV.
192
00:09:20,128 --> 00:09:21,618
Steven Berger's plane.
193
00:09:21,696 --> 00:09:23,687
He has an estate
in Southampton.
194
00:09:23,765 --> 00:09:25,960
He's not on the list.
You sure it was his plane?
195
00:09:26,034 --> 00:09:29,197
The control tower doesn't
kiss just anybody's ass.
196
00:09:29,270 --> 00:09:31,170
We were second
in line for takeoff
197
00:09:31,239 --> 00:09:33,730
when Berger got bumped
to the front of the class.
198
00:09:34,442 --> 00:09:35,500
According to the flight plan,
199
00:09:35,576 --> 00:09:38,010
Berger's plane was supposed
to leave for LA at 9:00.
200
00:09:38,079 --> 00:09:41,344
Except it left at 10:15.
They say why it was late?
201
00:09:41,416 --> 00:09:43,815
Well, maybe the cappuccino
machine got busted.
202
00:09:43,884 --> 00:09:45,283
That was Berger's lawyer.
203
00:09:45,352 --> 00:09:47,877
The great man just got back
from the Gobi Desert,
204
00:09:47,954 --> 00:09:50,047
where he was scouting
locations for a movie.
205
00:09:50,123 --> 00:09:52,091
And tonight
he's going to Morocco.
206
00:09:52,159 --> 00:09:55,095
You tell his lawyer he's not going
anywhere until he talks to us?
207
00:09:55,163 --> 00:09:56,187
Uh-huh.
208
00:09:56,264 --> 00:10:00,291
He has a meeting with Julia Roberts
at 2:00, Brad Pitt at 3:00,
209
00:10:00,368 --> 00:10:04,964
but he canceled his 4:00 with some
writer to meet with us at his lawyer's.
210
00:10:05,673 --> 00:10:07,664
I represent
Mr. Berger's legal interests,
211
00:10:07,742 --> 00:10:10,677
along with Mr. Mittleman
and Miss Schulter.
212
00:10:11,713 --> 00:10:15,341
Messrs.
Sands and Palnick are his agents,
213
00:10:15,415 --> 00:10:18,942
and Ms. Canton handles
his relations with the media.
214
00:10:20,087 --> 00:10:25,548
Mr. Berger is deeply saddened by
Heidi Ellison's tragic death.
215
00:10:26,159 --> 00:10:30,494
He considered her a friend and a
colleague, and a woman of great talent.
216
00:10:30,565 --> 00:10:33,432
Mr. Berger,
was she a close friend?
217
00:10:33,501 --> 00:10:36,732
They had a
pragmatic relationship,
218
00:10:36,804 --> 00:10:40,296
which in their business
is considered a friendship.
219
00:10:40,374 --> 00:10:43,002
Mr. Berger is eager to help
in any way that he can
220
00:10:43,077 --> 00:10:44,941
to bring the
guilty parties to justice.
221
00:10:45,011 --> 00:10:48,640
Well, we appreciate that.
We just have a few simple questions for him.
222
00:10:48,715 --> 00:10:49,909
Before we get to that,
223
00:10:49,983 --> 00:10:53,817
Mr. Berger doesn't want news of
this meeting leaking to the media.
224
00:10:53,887 --> 00:10:56,082
Well, we hadn't planned
on telling anybody.
225
00:10:56,156 --> 00:10:57,180
Of course.
226
00:10:57,257 --> 00:10:58,656
But if it is
going to be leaked,
227
00:10:58,725 --> 00:11:01,819
Mr. Berger would like Liz Smith
to get first crack at it.
228
00:11:01,895 --> 00:11:04,193
Her number's
at the top of the page.
229
00:11:04,264 --> 00:11:05,357
What's this?
230
00:11:05,433 --> 00:11:07,094
It's a suggested press release.
231
00:11:07,168 --> 00:11:10,103
Of course, feel free to put
it in your own vernacular.
232
00:11:12,573 --> 00:11:16,975
Mr. Berger, your plane left MacArthur
Airport an hour and a quarter late.
233
00:11:17,043 --> 00:11:18,806
Could you tell us why?
234
00:11:21,014 --> 00:11:23,482
Mr. Berger was
waiting for a passenger.
235
00:11:23,550 --> 00:11:25,541
And who was the passenger?
236
00:11:27,754 --> 00:11:29,312
Eddie Newman.
237
00:11:34,194 --> 00:11:35,889
Berger's
a hell of a ventriloquist.
238
00:11:35,962 --> 00:11:38,260
His mouth never moved
the whole time we were there.
239
00:11:38,331 --> 00:11:40,664
The story is, Newman
called him around 8:30
240
00:11:40,735 --> 00:11:42,362
to hitch a ride
to the West Coast.
241
00:11:42,436 --> 00:11:43,460
They're friends?
242
00:11:43,538 --> 00:11:44,732
They shared architects.
243
00:11:44,806 --> 00:11:46,467
I don't know
what that means out there.
244
00:11:46,541 --> 00:11:47,871
What else did Berger say?
245
00:11:47,941 --> 00:11:51,206
He took a pill and fell
asleep right after takeoff.
246
00:11:51,878 --> 00:11:53,106
Who else was on the plane?
247
00:11:53,180 --> 00:11:57,014
Well, Berger's personal assistant
dittoed everything her boss said.
248
00:11:57,083 --> 00:11:59,210
There was also
his executive producer
249
00:11:59,286 --> 00:12:01,277
and the guy who does the
merchandising on his movies.
250
00:12:01,354 --> 00:12:02,378
We haven't talked to them.
251
00:12:02,455 --> 00:12:03,979
Say the word,
we'll get a search warrant
252
00:12:04,057 --> 00:12:06,082
for Newman's car
and his apartment.
253
00:12:06,159 --> 00:12:08,787
We leave one "T" uncrossed
on that warrant application,
254
00:12:08,862 --> 00:12:10,796
and Neal Gorton will shove
it down our throats.
255
00:12:10,864 --> 00:12:12,456
Hey, Newman lied
about his alibi.
256
00:12:12,532 --> 00:12:14,727
He was in the same area
the murder weapon was found.
257
00:12:14,801 --> 00:12:16,827
What are we missing?
A motive.
258
00:12:16,904 --> 00:12:18,962
Find somebody
who'll say he hated her guts.
259
00:12:19,039 --> 00:12:21,132
Well, Newman palled around
with Steven Berger.
260
00:12:21,208 --> 00:12:23,142
People are afraid to talk.
261
00:12:23,210 --> 00:12:24,507
What about Evan Grant?
262
00:12:24,578 --> 00:12:27,877
Heidi Ellison must've told him
something about her ex-husband.
263
00:12:27,948 --> 00:12:29,540
Ask him.
264
00:12:29,616 --> 00:12:33,177
But don't let him know we're
considering another suspect.
265
00:12:33,954 --> 00:12:35,012
If we're wrong about Newman,
266
00:12:35,088 --> 00:12:38,489
I don't want to give Grant an
alternate theory of the crime.
267
00:12:38,558 --> 00:12:40,822
I'm not going to dazzle you
with a lot of bull, Miss Ross.
268
00:12:40,894 --> 00:12:43,988
Evan and I are realistic about
our chances with a jury.
269
00:12:44,064 --> 00:12:47,124
You put a serious offer on the table,
we'll give it a good, hard look.
270
00:12:47,200 --> 00:12:49,395
I'm not here
to negotiate a plea.
271
00:12:49,469 --> 00:12:50,935
What happened
to your other lawyer?
272
00:12:51,003 --> 00:12:52,631
Money's all gone.
273
00:12:52,706 --> 00:12:55,937
My friends in LA
stopped returning my calls.
274
00:12:56,009 --> 00:12:59,501
He's the only one I can afford.
He tells me I should take a deal.
275
00:12:59,579 --> 00:13:00,978
Miss Ross, I'm innocent.
276
00:13:01,047 --> 00:13:02,844
So why are we
having this meeting?
277
00:13:02,916 --> 00:13:04,349
Your client might help himself
278
00:13:04,417 --> 00:13:06,647
by answering a few questions
about Eddie Newman.
279
00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:08,745
Why?
Is he a suspect, too?
280
00:13:10,123 --> 00:13:13,991
Mr. Grant, your cooperation will
mean something down the line.
281
00:13:14,861 --> 00:13:18,058
On the last day you were with
Heidi, did she talk about Newman?
282
00:13:18,131 --> 00:13:21,157
Yeah, he called her on her cell
phone when she was at the gym.
283
00:13:21,234 --> 00:13:22,257
What did they talk about?
284
00:13:22,334 --> 00:13:23,358
I didn't hear.
285
00:13:23,435 --> 00:13:25,767
She took her phone into
her private dressing room.
286
00:13:25,838 --> 00:13:28,501
She didn't say anything when she got
back, but I could tell she was upset.
287
00:13:28,575 --> 00:13:31,510
Was she often upset after
talking with her husband?
288
00:13:31,578 --> 00:13:33,341
Yeah, sometimes.
289
00:13:33,413 --> 00:13:36,041
From what she told me,
he was a piece of work.
290
00:13:36,116 --> 00:13:38,346
What specifically
did she tell you?
291
00:13:39,853 --> 00:13:44,381
Well, she said that all the time they
were married, he wanted to control her.
292
00:13:44,457 --> 00:13:45,890
Movie directors are like that.
293
00:13:45,959 --> 00:13:49,053
They bang their leading
ladies for the control.
294
00:13:49,129 --> 00:13:51,324
Was he ever violent with her?
295
00:13:51,398 --> 00:13:52,921
She said
that when they were married,
296
00:13:52,998 --> 00:13:55,091
she had him
arrested for assault.
297
00:13:55,167 --> 00:13:57,294
He got nuts because he thought
she was cheating on him.
298
00:13:57,369 --> 00:13:58,859
When was this?
299
00:13:58,938 --> 00:14:02,772
She said last year,
right after New Year's.
300
00:14:04,244 --> 00:14:06,041
What's the problem?
301
00:14:07,380 --> 00:14:10,349
We don't have a record
Newman was ever arrested.
302
00:14:11,685 --> 00:14:14,745
She never filed a complaint,
so I never arrested him.
303
00:14:14,821 --> 00:14:17,085
Then why did you voucher
his personal belongings?
304
00:14:17,157 --> 00:14:19,182
Your sergeant found a voucher
in the precinct's file
305
00:14:19,259 --> 00:14:22,160
for Newman's gold watch,
two rings and his wallet.
306
00:14:22,262 --> 00:14:23,786
You just took him in, you put
him in the holding cell,
307
00:14:23,863 --> 00:14:25,523
and then you let him go?
308
00:14:25,597 --> 00:14:28,498
Did his watch find its way onto your wrist?
I resent that.
309
00:14:28,567 --> 00:14:31,195
I resent being lied to.
You tell me what happened, Detective Miller,
310
00:14:31,270 --> 00:14:32,862
or I am
walking this over to IAB.
311
00:14:32,938 --> 00:14:34,997
Look, I showed
a little compassion.
312
00:14:35,074 --> 00:14:37,565
Newman and Ellison went a couple
of rounds in their living room.
313
00:14:37,643 --> 00:14:39,578
She had a bloody nose
and a cut on her lip.
314
00:14:39,646 --> 00:14:41,409
She wanted him arrested,
I took him in.
315
00:14:41,481 --> 00:14:43,210
Why didn't he stay arrested?
316
00:14:43,283 --> 00:14:46,343
Because he was very contrite.
Very ashamed.
317
00:14:46,419 --> 00:14:49,650
So while he was in the tank,
I talked to his wife.
318
00:14:49,723 --> 00:14:50,985
You convinced her
to drop her complaint.
319
00:14:51,057 --> 00:14:53,617
She came to that on her own.
320
00:14:53,693 --> 00:14:56,217
Without her as a witness,
there's no case,
321
00:14:56,295 --> 00:14:58,559
and you know it,
so I let Newman go.
322
00:14:58,630 --> 00:15:01,895
What did you get out of it?
A couple of autographs?
323
00:15:08,107 --> 00:15:10,701
He appreciated
my mediation work.
324
00:15:10,776 --> 00:15:13,973
It didn't take. We think
he might have killed her.
325
00:15:16,016 --> 00:15:17,449
I knew it.
326
00:15:18,418 --> 00:15:21,683
I tried to tell Briscoe and Curtis
I liked him for that murder.
327
00:15:22,989 --> 00:15:24,581
What do you have on that creep?
328
00:15:24,657 --> 00:15:27,250
Barely enough
for a search warrant.
329
00:15:27,893 --> 00:15:29,724
Son of a bitch.
330
00:15:31,096 --> 00:15:33,394
Newman's car will be
at the impound in a half hour.
331
00:15:33,465 --> 00:15:35,160
Anything here?
Not yet.
332
00:15:35,234 --> 00:15:38,533
Newman hasn't been around for two weeks,
but the maid comes by every other day
333
00:15:38,604 --> 00:15:41,266
to change the flowers and restock
the fridge with fresh mango juice.
334
00:15:41,340 --> 00:15:42,329
Oh.
335
00:15:44,343 --> 00:15:49,246
The ego wall. We got an Oscar
nomination for Best Editing,
336
00:15:49,314 --> 00:15:53,308
a couple of honorable mentions
from film festivals in Europe.
337
00:15:53,853 --> 00:15:55,582
I guess it works as foreplay.
338
00:15:55,655 --> 00:15:58,215
Well, if those don't,
these might.
339
00:16:00,292 --> 00:16:03,557
Here.
I counted 14 pill bottles here.
340
00:16:04,396 --> 00:16:06,887
There's 20 more
in the bathroom.
341
00:16:06,965 --> 00:16:09,263
Not to mention this.
342
00:16:10,102 --> 00:16:14,562
Uppers, downers, anxiety pills,
sleeping pills, painkillers,
343
00:16:14,640 --> 00:16:15,971
codeine, morphine...
344
00:16:16,041 --> 00:16:17,599
Demerol.
345
00:16:17,676 --> 00:16:19,576
Prescribed by
Dr. Daniel Duval.
346
00:16:19,645 --> 00:16:22,808
Newman's shrink.
Amphetamines, also from Duval.
347
00:16:25,317 --> 00:16:28,287
You could jumpstart the
'60s with what's in here.
348
00:16:29,389 --> 00:16:32,084
The guy who detailed his car
did a great job.
349
00:16:32,191 --> 00:16:33,522
You find his number,
let me know.
350
00:16:33,592 --> 00:16:36,720
As soon as we book him for
destroying evidence, he's all yours.
351
00:16:36,795 --> 00:16:38,922
I said great, not perfect.
352
00:16:38,997 --> 00:16:42,831
I found a dozen strands of beige
silk caught on the gas pedal.
353
00:16:44,403 --> 00:16:46,371
From clothing?
Possible.
354
00:16:46,438 --> 00:16:48,906
They were stained
with A-negative blood.
355
00:16:49,575 --> 00:16:50,803
It's Heidi's blood type,
356
00:16:50,876 --> 00:16:52,707
and there were three blood
specks of the same type
357
00:16:52,778 --> 00:16:54,336
found on the lining
of the trunk.
358
00:16:54,413 --> 00:16:57,109
I doubt Gorton could give us
any grief over probable cause.
359
00:16:57,182 --> 00:16:58,877
Good.
Swear out an arrest warrant.
360
00:16:58,951 --> 00:17:01,146
Newman's still in LA,
finishing his movie.
361
00:17:01,220 --> 00:17:04,883
Fax them the warrant.
Tell Briscoe and Curtis to pack their bags.
362
00:17:05,991 --> 00:17:07,117
Welcome back.
363
00:17:07,192 --> 00:17:08,659
Yeah, we're just
here for take-out.
364
00:17:08,727 --> 00:17:10,718
You guys have him
in custody, right?
365
00:17:10,796 --> 00:17:13,560
Not quite. He checked himself
into the Judith Harvey Center.
366
00:17:13,632 --> 00:17:16,100
He's in rehab?
Let's go in and pull him out.
367
00:17:16,168 --> 00:17:18,261
It's not that simple.
There's a medical angle.
368
00:17:18,337 --> 00:17:20,737
Hey, I know the word rehab's
like a religion out here,
369
00:17:20,806 --> 00:17:24,537
but he can't just check himself into a drug
treatment center and yell "sanctuary."
370
00:17:24,610 --> 00:17:27,807
I've got two units parked outside the clinic.
Newman's not going anywhere.
371
00:17:27,880 --> 00:17:30,110
Hey, Rey, way to go.
372
00:17:30,415 --> 00:17:31,541
I don't know
anything about this.
373
00:17:31,617 --> 00:17:33,083
Over here.
Detective Curtis?
374
00:17:33,151 --> 00:17:35,210
No, he's Curtis.
I just hold his hat.
375
00:17:35,286 --> 00:17:38,346
Detective Curtis, Miss Lundquist arranged
a car to take you to your hotel.
376
00:17:38,422 --> 00:17:40,220
She said she reserved
your usual rooms.
377
00:17:40,292 --> 00:17:42,283
Well, that's real nice,
but we're leaving tonight.
378
00:17:42,361 --> 00:17:43,953
I'm happy to take you
wherever you're going.
379
00:17:44,029 --> 00:17:47,021
Well, we're on official
business here. No, thanks.
380
00:17:47,099 --> 00:17:49,465
No problem. Miss Lundquist
asked me to give you this.
381
00:17:49,535 --> 00:17:51,230
It's her numbers
where she can be reached.
382
00:17:51,303 --> 00:17:53,897
She asked that you give her a
call whenever you're done.
383
00:17:58,010 --> 00:18:00,410
Great, we should've
brought party hats.
384
00:18:00,479 --> 00:18:04,608
Jerry, these are the New York detectives.
Lennie Briscoe, Rey Curtis.
385
00:18:04,682 --> 00:18:07,378
Jerry Weiss, Deputy District
Attorney for LA county.
386
00:18:07,451 --> 00:18:09,544
You know Mr. Gorton
and Dr. Duval.
387
00:18:09,620 --> 00:18:12,589
This is Alan Sherick.
He's local counsel for Mr. Newman.
388
00:18:12,657 --> 00:18:15,752
Well, drinks are on me as soon as Mr.
Newman's in our custody.
389
00:18:15,827 --> 00:18:19,092
Mr. Newman is in the second day
of a drug treatment program.
390
00:18:19,164 --> 00:18:22,133
I've proposed, and Mr.
Weiss has tentatively agreed,
391
00:18:22,201 --> 00:18:25,568
that he complete the program and then
surrender himself to the police.
392
00:18:25,637 --> 00:18:27,161
You agreed?
393
00:18:27,239 --> 00:18:28,968
I agreed to consider it.
394
00:18:29,041 --> 00:18:31,805
Well, he better be cured by 8:00,
'cause that's when the plane leaves.
395
00:18:31,877 --> 00:18:33,344
It's a 10-day program.
396
00:18:33,412 --> 00:18:36,574
Hey, we're not gonna get
into a slow-speed chase with the guy.
397
00:18:36,647 --> 00:18:39,775
Mr. Weiss, unless you look forward
to running into some problems
398
00:18:39,850 --> 00:18:41,408
when you're looking
for somebody on our turf,
399
00:18:41,485 --> 00:18:43,749
you'd better execute
that arrest warrant today.
400
00:18:43,821 --> 00:18:46,312
This is abusive.
I'm calling Garcetti.
401
00:18:46,390 --> 00:18:50,087
This man is sick.
It'll set back his recovery by months.
402
00:18:50,161 --> 00:18:52,255
He can recover at Rikers.
403
00:18:54,266 --> 00:18:56,530
Eddie. Eddie.
404
00:18:57,269 --> 00:19:00,261
Eddie, these detectives are here
to take you back to New York.
405
00:19:00,339 --> 00:19:01,806
Don't worry,
everything is gonna be fine.
406
00:19:01,873 --> 00:19:03,841
They're arresting you, Eddie.
Just don't say a word.
407
00:19:03,909 --> 00:19:04,933
Be with you the whole way.
408
00:19:05,010 --> 00:19:06,034
Can he stand up?
409
00:19:06,111 --> 00:19:07,202
Sure. Stand up.
410
00:19:07,278 --> 00:19:08,370
Want to do the honors?
411
00:19:08,446 --> 00:19:09,777
Give us some room, please.
412
00:19:09,847 --> 00:19:12,543
Edward Newman, you're under arrest
for the murder of Heidi Ellison.
413
00:19:12,617 --> 00:19:13,879
Dan...
It's gonna be all right.
414
00:19:13,951 --> 00:19:14,940
I won't let them hurt you.
415
00:19:15,019 --> 00:19:16,384
You have the right
to remain silent.
416
00:19:16,454 --> 00:19:19,651
Anything you do say can and will be
used against you in a court of law.
417
00:19:23,894 --> 00:19:26,887
This matter's on for
the arraignment of Edward Newman.
418
00:19:26,965 --> 00:19:29,763
A warrant for his arrest and
extradition having been received
419
00:19:29,835 --> 00:19:33,771
from the sovereign state of New
York and lodged with this court.
420
00:19:33,839 --> 00:19:36,740
Mr. Newman is filing notice
of a writ of habeas corpus.
421
00:19:36,808 --> 00:19:38,536
You're
contesting the extradition?
422
00:19:38,609 --> 00:19:39,633
Yes, Your Honor.
On the grounds
423
00:19:39,710 --> 00:19:42,042
that the arrest warrant issued by
the State of New York is defective.
424
00:19:42,113 --> 00:19:43,546
Defective how, Your Honor?
425
00:19:43,648 --> 00:19:48,642
Your Honor, I respectfully suggest this
isn't the forum to litigate this matter.
426
00:19:48,719 --> 00:19:50,186
I agree, Mr. Sherick.
427
00:19:50,254 --> 00:19:54,623
I'm setting this down for a hearing
on the defendant's petition,
428
00:19:54,692 --> 00:19:57,388
five days from now.
So ordered.
429
00:19:58,029 --> 00:20:00,020
More developments
following the arrest yesterday
430
00:20:00,097 --> 00:20:01,826
of Hollywood director
Eddie Newman
431
00:20:01,900 --> 00:20:05,563
for the murder of his ex-wife,
studio boss Heidi Ellison.
432
00:20:05,637 --> 00:20:10,801
In a highly unusual turn, Newman's lawyers
contested extradition from California.
433
00:20:10,875 --> 00:20:13,469
This means Heidi Ellison's
latest accused killer
434
00:20:13,544 --> 00:20:17,742
stays beyond the reach of New York
justice for at least another five days.
435
00:20:18,382 --> 00:20:20,612
What the devil is Gorton up to?
436
00:20:21,319 --> 00:20:25,085
Trying to lure you out to sunny
California to see you in a bathing suit?
437
00:20:25,156 --> 00:20:27,386
It's a better reason than
his writ of habeas corpus.
438
00:20:27,458 --> 00:20:28,482
Maybe I should read it again,
439
00:20:28,559 --> 00:20:30,789
but I didn't see grounds
to challenge the extradition.
440
00:20:30,861 --> 00:20:35,457
Yeah, well, maybe our extradition
papers were written with the wrong ink.
441
00:20:35,533 --> 00:20:36,659
There's nothing
wrong with them.
442
00:20:36,734 --> 00:20:40,466
Gorton's attacking the arrest warrant.
On what basis I don't know.
443
00:20:40,539 --> 00:20:43,234
Get on a plane and find out.
444
00:20:43,307 --> 00:20:45,901
I want this
bi-coastal nonsense over.
445
00:20:47,111 --> 00:20:50,603
Drag Newman back here
by his heels if you have to.
446
00:20:51,916 --> 00:20:54,476
Gorton hooked up with Alan Sherick.
Very connected.
447
00:20:54,552 --> 00:20:57,749
Plays skins with all the right
judges, and he lets them win.
448
00:20:57,822 --> 00:21:00,484
Is there any actual law
supporting their writ?
449
00:21:00,558 --> 00:21:03,823
Could be a stall.
Could be your warrant's no good.
450
00:21:04,528 --> 00:21:07,463
Miss Ross, you ever thought
about television work?
451
00:21:07,531 --> 00:21:08,589
I beg your pardon?
452
00:21:08,666 --> 00:21:11,760
I'm an on-air commentator
for Justice TV. Part time.
453
00:21:11,836 --> 00:21:14,361
If you have an 8-by-10,
I could get it to my producer.
454
00:21:14,438 --> 00:21:16,838
I've got a snapshot
with my daughter at the zoo.
455
00:21:16,907 --> 00:21:19,569
That's cute.
Do you have a card?
456
00:21:20,111 --> 00:21:22,306
This is the break
I'm looking for.
457
00:21:22,380 --> 00:21:24,905
There's nothing frivolous
about our petition.
458
00:21:24,982 --> 00:21:26,882
There are grave issues
involved here.
459
00:21:26,951 --> 00:21:29,647
I spent six hours on the plane
staring at that arrest warrant.
460
00:21:29,720 --> 00:21:31,210
I didn't see
anything wrong with it.
461
00:21:31,288 --> 00:21:33,916
Maybe all that free champagne
blurred your vision.
462
00:21:33,991 --> 00:21:35,618
We sat in coach.
463
00:21:35,693 --> 00:21:37,092
Coach, Jamie?
464
00:21:37,161 --> 00:21:38,458
That's really sad.
465
00:21:38,529 --> 00:21:40,793
This case is a loser, Neal.
That's what's sad.
466
00:21:40,898 --> 00:21:42,957
Otherwise you wouldn't be
wasting our time here.
467
00:21:43,033 --> 00:21:45,227
I don't find lack of
probable cause insignificant.
468
00:21:45,301 --> 00:21:47,895
The probable cause is spelled
out in the arrest warrant.
469
00:21:47,971 --> 00:21:49,735
If you weren't having such a
fabulous time in first class,
470
00:21:49,807 --> 00:21:50,831
you might have noticed.
471
00:21:50,908 --> 00:21:55,368
The place to argue about probable cause, Mr.
Gorton, is 3,000 miles east.
472
00:21:55,446 --> 00:21:57,471
The California courts
don't have the authority
473
00:21:57,548 --> 00:21:59,743
to attack the
underlying facts of the case.
474
00:21:59,817 --> 00:22:02,217
We found a judge who's happy
to disagree with you.
475
00:22:02,286 --> 00:22:04,584
How many golf strokes
did that cost you, Alan?
476
00:22:04,655 --> 00:22:08,250
I'm going to ignore that and refer
you to Michigan v. Doran
477
00:22:08,325 --> 00:22:10,020
and Gerstein v. Pugh.
478
00:22:10,094 --> 00:22:12,221
The Supreme Court
reversed Doran.
479
00:22:12,296 --> 00:22:15,322
Once the governor of the demanding
state signs the extradition papers,
480
00:22:15,399 --> 00:22:18,333
they're valid on their face.
The asylum state can't challenge them.
481
00:22:18,401 --> 00:22:21,802
And under Gerstein, California
doesn't have to grant extradition
482
00:22:21,871 --> 00:22:24,999
until a neutral court
determines probable cause.
483
00:22:25,074 --> 00:22:26,303
That's not what Gerstein says.
484
00:22:26,377 --> 00:22:29,210
It says whatever Judge Van
Ness interprets it to say.
485
00:22:29,280 --> 00:22:31,680
One of your judges
is hijacking my case.
486
00:22:31,749 --> 00:22:34,513
Doesn't your office have
anything to say about that?
487
00:22:34,585 --> 00:22:37,247
We can help you
file an appeal in Sacramento,
488
00:22:37,321 --> 00:22:39,050
but that's about it.
489
00:22:43,461 --> 00:22:45,952
You're not in
Kansas anymore, McCoy.
490
00:22:47,363 --> 00:22:48,921
I don't get the problem.
491
00:22:48,998 --> 00:22:52,229
We've tossed out his alibi, and
we've got her blood in his car.
492
00:22:52,302 --> 00:22:56,204
Well, maybe this judge thinks "smoking
gun" is a famous Indian chief.
493
00:22:56,272 --> 00:22:57,534
This judge is an idiot.
494
00:22:57,607 --> 00:23:00,337
He took the Full Faith and Credit
Clause of the Constitution
495
00:23:00,410 --> 00:23:02,379
and tossed it
into the Santa Monica Bay.
496
00:23:02,446 --> 00:23:04,277
Maybe you should take up golf.
497
00:23:04,348 --> 00:23:06,680
If it'll help,
I'll send for my clubs.
498
00:23:07,184 --> 00:23:08,549
Does anybody
want to grab a bite?
499
00:23:08,619 --> 00:23:10,109
Not me.
I'm booked for dinner.
500
00:23:10,187 --> 00:23:11,882
Quick, turn up the sound.
501
00:23:13,090 --> 00:23:15,388
We're going to prove that the
arrest warrant for my client
502
00:23:15,459 --> 00:23:17,689
is produced from
evidence planted in his car.
503
00:23:17,761 --> 00:23:19,819
Planted
by who, Mr. Gorton?
504
00:23:19,896 --> 00:23:21,830
We'll get into that
in the hearing. Excuse me.
505
00:23:21,898 --> 00:23:23,297
Mr. Gorton...
Mr. Gorton...
506
00:23:23,366 --> 00:23:25,732
Now, Wendy, Jess, of course
we'll be contacting
507
00:23:25,802 --> 00:23:27,895
the New York County
District Attorney's...
508
00:23:27,971 --> 00:23:30,166
What a load of bull.
509
00:23:30,240 --> 00:23:32,401
Who had access to the car?
510
00:23:32,475 --> 00:23:35,535
I'll call and see
if we can get on the red-eye.
511
00:23:38,015 --> 00:23:41,917
It did not look this big in the photo.
You take this out by yourself?
512
00:23:41,986 --> 00:23:43,749
It's not set up
for single-handing.
513
00:23:43,821 --> 00:23:46,847
Right now,
it's perfect for two.
514
00:23:46,924 --> 00:23:48,551
You like boats?
515
00:23:48,626 --> 00:23:50,889
Well, I've been on the
ferry with my girls.
516
00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:53,952
Ellis Island, Statue of Liberty.
Uh-huh. Hmm.
517
00:23:54,864 --> 00:23:57,389
I bet your daughters are sweethearts.
518
00:23:57,467 --> 00:23:59,196
Most of the time.
519
00:24:00,403 --> 00:24:03,099
So, Rey,
520
00:24:04,574 --> 00:24:06,565
you ever think
about changing jobs?
521
00:24:07,477 --> 00:24:09,968
Every Monday morning. Why?
522
00:24:10,046 --> 00:24:12,241
I talked to the head of
security at the studio.
523
00:24:12,315 --> 00:24:14,682
He says they're looking for
someone with your experience.
524
00:24:14,752 --> 00:24:15,878
To do what?
525
00:24:15,953 --> 00:24:17,147
Background checks.
526
00:24:17,221 --> 00:24:19,121
Special investigations.
527
00:24:20,057 --> 00:24:21,284
I don't know what you make now,
528
00:24:21,357 --> 00:24:23,757
but you would
easily triple your salary.
529
00:24:24,928 --> 00:24:28,261
Sounds great, Lisa,
but I can't leave the kids.
530
00:24:28,898 --> 00:24:31,059
I wouldn't expect you to.
531
00:24:31,634 --> 00:24:34,330
LA is a great place to live
if you're an orange,
532
00:24:34,404 --> 00:24:35,871
but you'd work out of New York.
533
00:24:35,939 --> 00:24:38,772
You would travel to movie
locations all over the world.
534
00:24:38,841 --> 00:24:40,308
I don't know.
535
00:24:40,910 --> 00:24:43,208
No strings attached.
536
00:24:45,515 --> 00:24:48,177
Your plane
is not for a couple of hours.
537
00:24:48,251 --> 00:24:51,380
I know, but I should probably
head back to the hotel.
538
00:24:52,989 --> 00:24:55,253
Don't you
want to sleep with me?
539
00:24:56,225 --> 00:24:58,921
Yes, I do. But...
540
00:24:58,995 --> 00:25:02,294
It's just sex. It doesn't
have to go anywhere.
541
00:25:02,365 --> 00:25:05,095
I wish it were
that easy. I do.
542
00:25:07,704 --> 00:25:09,569
Thanks for your offer.
543
00:25:09,639 --> 00:25:11,402
Your job offer.
544
00:25:18,781 --> 00:25:21,306
So when are you gonna give
Giuliani your two weeks' notice?
545
00:25:21,384 --> 00:25:22,442
I ain't going anywhere.
546
00:25:22,518 --> 00:25:25,919
Yeah, right. Why give up all
this for a six-figure income
547
00:25:25,989 --> 00:25:27,889
and free travel
to exotic countries?
548
00:25:27,957 --> 00:25:28,946
Come on, come on, lay off.
549
00:25:29,025 --> 00:25:30,686
Hey, Rey,
I like working with you.
550
00:25:30,760 --> 00:25:33,058
You got to be nuts
to turn down that job.
551
00:25:33,129 --> 00:25:35,689
Think of what you could do
for your kids with that money.
552
00:25:35,765 --> 00:25:40,600
Okay, black Mercedes, 500 SL.
Edward Newman, owner.
553
00:25:40,670 --> 00:25:43,696
Brought in on Thursday morning.
Wasn't looked at till Friday afternoon.
554
00:25:43,773 --> 00:25:45,434
Anybody go near it before then?
555
00:25:45,508 --> 00:25:46,668
Yeah, it's the
only car we have here.
556
00:25:46,743 --> 00:25:48,802
I'd never take my eye off it.
How the hell would I know?
557
00:25:48,878 --> 00:25:50,311
Yeah,
well besides your regulars,
558
00:25:50,380 --> 00:25:53,543
who was in that garage
between Thursday and Friday?
559
00:26:02,859 --> 00:26:04,690
What was
Detective Miller doing here?
560
00:26:04,761 --> 00:26:07,093
Looks like he had a car in here
in connection with a robbery.
561
00:26:07,163 --> 00:26:09,324
This is a photocopy.
What happened to the original?
562
00:26:09,399 --> 00:26:12,266
My supervisor took it.
Said somebody subpoenaed it.
563
00:26:13,903 --> 00:26:15,734
That robbery case wasn't
even yours, Miller.
564
00:26:15,805 --> 00:26:17,705
You had no business
being in that garage.
565
00:26:17,774 --> 00:26:20,538
I can go any damn place
on city property I want to.
566
00:26:20,610 --> 00:26:23,306
Listen, we find your prints on Newman's
car, you'll be going to Rikers.
567
00:26:23,379 --> 00:26:25,540
I got a subpoena
and I got a ticket to LA.
568
00:26:25,615 --> 00:26:27,673
Hey, hey!
That's where I'm going.
569
00:26:28,717 --> 00:26:30,514
Hey, Miller, if you've got
something on your chest
570
00:26:30,585 --> 00:26:33,179
you want to get rid of,
now's the time to do it!
571
00:26:33,255 --> 00:26:34,984
I didn't plant nothing.
572
00:26:35,057 --> 00:26:38,892
Now, if you guys excuse me, I got
to go buy some suntan lotion.
573
00:26:41,130 --> 00:26:44,497
They subpoenaed Miller, someone
from the forensic garage,
574
00:26:44,567 --> 00:26:47,468
and Dr. Dietrich Parks, a fiber
expert from San Francisco.
575
00:26:47,537 --> 00:26:51,132
Miller's prints weren't on the car.
No one saw him near the car.
576
00:26:51,207 --> 00:26:52,902
It's all innuendo.
577
00:26:53,576 --> 00:26:55,237
Neal never wings it.
578
00:26:56,179 --> 00:27:00,012
He's putting our evidence
on trial here, on TV,
579
00:27:00,082 --> 00:27:03,074
for the benefit of potential jurors back home.
He can say things here
580
00:27:03,151 --> 00:27:05,449
he wouldn't be allowed to say
in a New York courtroom.
581
00:27:05,520 --> 00:27:08,489
That's right.
Let's look at his evidence.
582
00:27:08,557 --> 00:27:11,925
The sign-in sheet from the
garage, blood and DNA studies,
583
00:27:11,994 --> 00:27:16,090
studies on silk fabric.
That's one good thing about California.
584
00:27:16,165 --> 00:27:17,962
Reciprocal discovery.
585
00:27:19,469 --> 00:27:21,300
What do you make of this?
586
00:27:21,370 --> 00:27:23,497
A woman's beige silk blouse.
587
00:27:28,010 --> 00:27:29,637
Please state
your name and occupation.
588
00:27:29,711 --> 00:27:30,700
Dr. Dietrich Parks,
589
00:27:30,779 --> 00:27:33,247
professor of forensic
science at UC Berkeley.
590
00:27:33,315 --> 00:27:35,840
For the record, I renew my
objection to this hearing.
591
00:27:35,917 --> 00:27:37,475
This court has no jurisdiction
592
00:27:37,552 --> 00:27:39,816
over a crime committed in
the State of New York.
593
00:27:39,888 --> 00:27:41,617
As long as Mr. Newman
is in my district,
594
00:27:41,690 --> 00:27:44,215
I'm going to see he's protected
under the Fourth Amendment
595
00:27:44,292 --> 00:27:47,284
against any unwarranted
restraints on his liberty.
596
00:27:47,362 --> 00:27:49,695
With all due respect, there
has already been a finding
597
00:27:49,766 --> 00:27:51,597
of probable cause
to arrest him.
598
00:27:51,667 --> 00:27:56,661
This court certainly has jurisdiction to
inquire into the basis of that finding.
599
00:27:56,739 --> 00:27:57,967
Your Honor, that's precisely...
600
00:27:58,040 --> 00:28:01,475
Thank you, Mr. Sherick.
Mr. McCoy, sit down.
601
00:28:02,778 --> 00:28:04,370
Proceed, Mr. Gorton.
602
00:28:04,446 --> 00:28:05,708
Thank you, Your Honor.
603
00:28:06,448 --> 00:28:11,010
Dr. Parks, you examined the fiber
evidence found in Mr. Newman's car.
604
00:28:11,086 --> 00:28:13,020
What can you tell us about it?
605
00:28:16,091 --> 00:28:18,719
The fibers
were single-ply silk
606
00:28:19,394 --> 00:28:22,386
colored with a beige
vegetable-based dye,
607
00:28:22,597 --> 00:28:24,759
and weaved
in a jacquard pattern.
608
00:28:24,834 --> 00:28:27,860
They were stained with
Type-A negative blood.
609
00:28:27,937 --> 00:28:29,734
Dr. Parks.
610
00:28:32,541 --> 00:28:34,008
Do you recognize this?
611
00:28:34,976 --> 00:28:37,968
Well, yes,
I examined it two days ago.
612
00:28:38,046 --> 00:28:39,946
It's a woman's blouse,
single-ply silk
613
00:28:40,015 --> 00:28:43,951
colored with a beige vegetable-based
dye, and weaved in a jacquard pattern.
614
00:28:44,019 --> 00:28:46,487
It's also stained
with A-negative blood.
615
00:28:46,555 --> 00:28:48,887
The same as the fibers
found in Mr. Newman's car?
616
00:28:48,957 --> 00:28:51,221
Yes. They match perfectly.
617
00:28:52,327 --> 00:28:53,954
There's a tag
attached to the sleeve.
618
00:28:54,029 --> 00:28:55,360
Please read what it says.
619
00:28:55,430 --> 00:28:59,868
"New York City Police Department.
Evidence Clerk's Office, 16th Precinct.
620
00:28:59,936 --> 00:29:03,167
"Recovered from the
person of Heidi Ellison."
621
00:29:03,573 --> 00:29:06,666
It's dated January 12,
one year ago.
622
00:29:06,741 --> 00:29:08,208
It's an evidence voucher.
623
00:29:08,276 --> 00:29:11,040
Please read
the signature on the tag.
624
00:29:11,112 --> 00:29:13,273
"Detective Stu Miller."
625
00:29:13,348 --> 00:29:15,578
Thank you. No more questions.
626
00:29:20,155 --> 00:29:24,751
Dr. Parks, can you state
with absolute certainty
627
00:29:24,826 --> 00:29:26,487
that the fibers
in Mr. Newman's car
628
00:29:26,561 --> 00:29:29,223
came from that blouse
and that blouse only?
629
00:29:29,297 --> 00:29:32,130
No, not absolutely.
630
00:29:32,200 --> 00:29:34,862
They might have
come from a similar blouse
631
00:29:34,936 --> 00:29:36,403
that Heidi Ellison
could have been wearing
632
00:29:36,471 --> 00:29:38,939
the night she was murdered four weeks ago.
Isn't that right?
633
00:29:39,007 --> 00:29:40,099
I suppose so, but...
634
00:29:40,175 --> 00:29:41,506
Thank you.
635
00:29:43,578 --> 00:29:45,512
Ms. Ellison
wanted to press charges.
636
00:29:45,580 --> 00:29:48,606
I took the blouse because it
was evidence of the assault.
637
00:29:48,683 --> 00:29:51,243
She bled on it
after he hit her.
638
00:29:51,319 --> 00:29:54,686
To your knowledge, was Mr.
Newman ever prosecuted for this assault?
639
00:29:54,756 --> 00:29:57,384
No. Ms. Ellison
dropped the complaint.
640
00:29:57,459 --> 00:30:00,917
Because at Mr. Newman's request, you
talked her out of pressing charges.
641
00:30:00,996 --> 00:30:03,988
Isn't that true?
I had a conversation with her.
642
00:30:04,065 --> 00:30:06,329
I didn't talk her
out of anything.
643
00:30:07,434 --> 00:30:10,871
Isn't it true that Mr.
Newman promised you a job as a technical advisor
644
00:30:10,939 --> 00:30:12,668
on one of his movies?
645
00:30:12,741 --> 00:30:13,799
He might have
mentioned something.
646
00:30:13,875 --> 00:30:16,469
Isn't it true that Mr.
Newman promised to help you write a screenplay
647
00:30:16,544 --> 00:30:18,774
based on your experiences
as a police officer?
648
00:30:18,847 --> 00:30:19,871
Maybe. I don't remember.
649
00:30:19,948 --> 00:30:22,746
But Mr. Newman never delivered
on any of his promises.
650
00:30:22,817 --> 00:30:24,148
Isn't that right?
I don't know.
651
00:30:24,219 --> 00:30:25,914
And when you learned
that he was a suspect
652
00:30:25,987 --> 00:30:29,354
in his ex-wife's murder, you
took fibers from that blouse
653
00:30:29,424 --> 00:30:32,291
which you placed in the
evidence room one year earlier,
654
00:30:32,360 --> 00:30:35,488
and you planted those fibers in his car.
Isn't that right?
655
00:30:35,563 --> 00:30:38,998
That's not true.
I did not plant evidence.
656
00:30:40,968 --> 00:30:42,560
Thank you, Detective.
657
00:30:44,405 --> 00:30:45,736
Detective Miller,
658
00:30:46,373 --> 00:30:48,467
are you aware that Ms.
Ellison's blood was found
659
00:30:48,543 --> 00:30:50,568
in the trunk of Mr.
Newman's car? Yes.
660
00:30:50,645 --> 00:30:52,806
Did you plant that blood?
No.
661
00:30:52,881 --> 00:30:54,212
Did you have anything to do
662
00:30:54,282 --> 00:30:57,080
with Mr. Newman's lying to the
police about his whereabouts
663
00:30:57,152 --> 00:30:59,313
on the night Ms.
Ellison was killed? No.
664
00:30:59,387 --> 00:31:01,514
Did you have anything to do
with his being in the area
665
00:31:01,589 --> 00:31:04,217
where the murder weapon
was discovered?
666
00:31:05,894 --> 00:31:07,623
No.
Thank you.
667
00:31:09,297 --> 00:31:11,457
I admit I smacked her.
668
00:31:12,166 --> 00:31:14,896
I had never done that before.
I felt sick to my stomach.
669
00:31:14,969 --> 00:31:18,302
I apologized right away,
but she was angry.
670
00:31:18,372 --> 00:31:20,499
She wanted me arrested.
671
00:31:21,508 --> 00:31:24,842
After Detective Miller
brought you to the precinct,
672
00:31:24,913 --> 00:31:27,279
did you ask him
to talk to your wife?
673
00:31:27,349 --> 00:31:30,045
Yes. He said he knew
exactly what to say to her.
674
00:31:30,118 --> 00:31:33,144
And did you promise Detective Miller
employment in return for his help?
675
00:31:33,221 --> 00:31:35,712
I told him I would spitball
story ideas with him.
676
00:31:35,790 --> 00:31:39,419
In the industry, that's a euphemism.
It means "get lost."
677
00:31:39,494 --> 00:31:41,017
But Detective Miller
didn't, did he?
678
00:31:41,095 --> 00:31:42,187
No.
679
00:31:42,262 --> 00:31:45,857
He called my home, he called my
office, he even called Heidi.
680
00:31:45,933 --> 00:31:47,833
Finally, I told him if he
didn't stop bothering us,
681
00:31:47,901 --> 00:31:49,892
I'd call his
commanding officer.
682
00:31:49,970 --> 00:31:52,029
I never heard from him again.
683
00:31:52,106 --> 00:31:53,437
Thank you.
684
00:31:59,147 --> 00:32:03,846
Had Detective Miller been to your home
before the time you punched out your wife?
685
00:32:04,652 --> 00:32:07,553
Yes. But I didn't
punch her out.
686
00:32:08,256 --> 00:32:09,245
How did you break her nose?
687
00:32:09,324 --> 00:32:10,484
I didn't break her nose.
688
00:32:10,558 --> 00:32:12,355
It was bleeding.
Her lip was swollen.
689
00:32:12,426 --> 00:32:14,621
Objection, Your Honor.
Relevance.
690
00:32:14,695 --> 00:32:15,855
Sustained.
691
00:32:15,929 --> 00:32:17,521
Mr. McCoy,
get back on track.
692
00:32:17,598 --> 00:32:19,828
Yes, Your Honor. Mr.
Newman, isn't it true
693
00:32:19,900 --> 00:32:23,427
that Detective Miller was a
regular visitor at your house
694
00:32:23,504 --> 00:32:26,268
because you routinely
assaulted your wife?
695
00:32:26,907 --> 00:32:30,343
We had arguments.
I never assaulted her.
696
00:32:30,411 --> 00:32:33,812
You mean, you were never actually
charged as a wife beater.
697
00:32:33,881 --> 00:32:35,281
Did you ask Detective Miller
698
00:32:35,350 --> 00:32:37,784
to talk to your wife
on those occasions, too?
699
00:32:37,852 --> 00:32:39,149
Objection.
700
00:32:40,121 --> 00:32:41,986
Withdrawn.
No more questions.
701
00:32:44,191 --> 00:32:46,284
You can step down,
Mr. Newman.
702
00:32:49,930 --> 00:32:53,764
I guess Neal's not the only one who
knows how to play to the cameras.
703
00:32:57,304 --> 00:32:58,566
Based on the fiber evidence,
704
00:32:58,639 --> 00:33:00,869
and on Detective Miller's
history with my client,
705
00:33:00,941 --> 00:33:04,570
it is a reasonable inference that the fibers
were placed in the car by Detective Miller.
706
00:33:04,645 --> 00:33:06,135
Even if we
grant that allegation,
707
00:33:06,213 --> 00:33:09,114
there's still plenty of evidence
to sustain probable cause.
708
00:33:09,183 --> 00:33:10,708
It's all suspect.
709
00:33:10,785 --> 00:33:13,549
If Detective Miller can plant fibers
in the front seat of the car,
710
00:33:13,621 --> 00:33:16,589
what's to prevent him or anyone else
from planting blood in the trunk?
711
00:33:16,657 --> 00:33:18,648
His client fabricated an alibi.
712
00:33:18,725 --> 00:33:23,594
Which, of itself, doesn't even come close
to being probable cause for arrest.
713
00:33:23,664 --> 00:33:26,792
He's right, Mr. McCoy.
You toss out the evidence in the car,
714
00:33:26,867 --> 00:33:29,131
you don't have
much of a case left.
715
00:33:29,203 --> 00:33:33,071
Speak up, Your Honor. There are some
people in the Bronx who didn't hear you.
716
00:33:35,075 --> 00:33:36,167
What did you say?
717
00:33:36,243 --> 00:33:39,644
You're usurping the authority of the
citizens of the State of New York.
718
00:33:39,713 --> 00:33:42,807
It's for them to decide the
facts of this case, not you.
719
00:33:43,951 --> 00:33:45,715
You just watch me.
720
00:33:46,421 --> 00:33:50,516
I find your arrest warrant
unsupported by the evidence.
721
00:33:50,591 --> 00:33:52,718
The defendant's petition
is granted.
722
00:33:52,793 --> 00:33:54,693
The extradition request
is denied,
723
00:33:54,761 --> 00:33:59,858
and you, Mr.
McCoy, are fined $2,000 for contempt.
724
00:34:01,135 --> 00:34:03,933
And we don't take
out-of-state checks.
725
00:34:11,812 --> 00:34:15,339
Have my office wire you the money as
soon as we get back to the hotel.
726
00:34:15,415 --> 00:34:18,178
I don't think Van Ness has
ever been talked to like that.
727
00:34:18,251 --> 00:34:20,048
Someone ought to
yank his leash.
728
00:34:20,119 --> 00:34:22,782
I'll ask my boss to call the
Chief Administrative Judge.
729
00:34:22,856 --> 00:34:25,290
Their kids go to
the same pre-school.
730
00:34:26,160 --> 00:34:28,355
That's our problem.
No friends.
731
00:34:28,428 --> 00:34:30,760
We ought to
start cruising the bars.
732
00:34:30,831 --> 00:34:31,855
Miller screwed us.
733
00:34:31,932 --> 00:34:35,732
An overzealous moron wanted to
make sure Newman got nailed.
734
00:34:35,802 --> 00:34:38,100
I hate leaving empty-handed.
735
00:34:38,939 --> 00:34:40,702
Well, Moondoggie,
what do you want to do?
736
00:34:40,774 --> 00:34:42,799
Rent a beach house
and wait for the appeal?
737
00:34:42,876 --> 00:34:46,710
Or we can come up with some probable
cause that Van Ness can't dismiss.
738
00:34:46,780 --> 00:34:50,306
The police searched Newman's homes
and offices on both coasts.
739
00:34:50,383 --> 00:34:52,544
What about
Berger's private jet?
740
00:34:52,618 --> 00:34:54,813
Newman was dumping evidence
all the way to the airport.
741
00:34:54,887 --> 00:34:56,878
Maybe he left some
on the plane.
742
00:34:56,956 --> 00:34:59,425
Mr. Berger's very
secretive about his travels.
743
00:34:59,493 --> 00:35:00,926
You're a New York lawyer?
744
00:35:00,994 --> 00:35:02,859
New York
District Attorney's Office.
745
00:35:02,930 --> 00:35:04,329
You're a long way from home.
746
00:35:04,398 --> 00:35:05,695
Don't I know it.
747
00:35:05,766 --> 00:35:08,257
Mr. Berger's office told me his
plane was being leased out
748
00:35:08,335 --> 00:35:10,895
while he wasn't using it.
They told me to talk to you.
749
00:35:10,971 --> 00:35:13,405
I'll have to
remember to thank him.
750
00:35:17,644 --> 00:35:19,168
You know all these people?
751
00:35:19,246 --> 00:35:21,236
Yeah, close personal friends.
752
00:35:21,314 --> 00:35:23,748
They have my headshot
up in their office.
753
00:35:23,816 --> 00:35:25,078
You want to give me yours,
I'll put it up there.
754
00:35:25,151 --> 00:35:28,678
I don't have one.
Everybody tells me I should.
755
00:35:28,754 --> 00:35:32,417
People around here use them
instead of business cards.
756
00:35:32,491 --> 00:35:36,394
Berger's plane is due back here
from Aspen this afternoon,
757
00:35:37,264 --> 00:35:39,129
but tomorrow morning
Berger's taking it to Tokyo
758
00:35:39,199 --> 00:35:41,429
and then to Europe for a month.
759
00:35:41,902 --> 00:35:44,735
It's been around the world
half a dozen times since then.
760
00:35:44,805 --> 00:35:47,672
People have been in and out of
it, it's been vacuumed, cleaned.
761
00:35:47,741 --> 00:35:49,709
There's no reason to expect
there's any evidence left.
762
00:35:49,776 --> 00:35:52,471
I don't sense the
spirit of cooperation here.
763
00:35:54,280 --> 00:35:57,875
I am not in a rush to tear apart
Steven Berger's private jet on a whim.
764
00:35:57,950 --> 00:36:00,748
What's he going to do, name the
monster in his next movie after you?
765
00:36:00,820 --> 00:36:02,981
This is
a company town, Miss Ross.
766
00:36:03,055 --> 00:36:04,215
Berger bitches to my boss,
767
00:36:04,290 --> 00:36:06,224
I spend the next two years
in misdemeanor court.
768
00:36:06,292 --> 00:36:09,228
My boss bitches to your boss,
you won't be much better off.
769
00:36:10,530 --> 00:36:12,498
I need to
bullet-proof my ass.
770
00:36:12,566 --> 00:36:15,729
Just find me a good reason
to take it to a judge.
771
00:36:17,004 --> 00:36:19,700
Who else was on the plane
with Newman and Berger?
772
00:36:23,143 --> 00:36:24,939
There's not much I can
tell you about the flight.
773
00:36:25,011 --> 00:36:26,410
I spent most of the
time on the phone,
774
00:36:26,479 --> 00:36:29,243
lining up financing
for Steven's next film.
775
00:36:29,315 --> 00:36:32,341
Seems you and Newman
were the only ones awake.
776
00:36:32,418 --> 00:36:34,852
Everyone else said they
took sleeping pills.
777
00:36:34,920 --> 00:36:36,387
I hope you're not
including the pilot.
778
00:36:38,591 --> 00:36:41,890
When you weren't on the phone,
did you talk to Mr. Newman?
779
00:36:41,961 --> 00:36:44,589
He saw I was busy.
I said hello.
780
00:36:44,664 --> 00:36:48,032
Did you notice anything about
his appearance or his behavior?
781
00:36:48,101 --> 00:36:49,159
No, I didn't.
782
00:36:49,236 --> 00:36:52,763
Mr. Cooper, you weren't flying
aboard the Queen Mary.
783
00:36:53,707 --> 00:36:57,233
The man was sitting not more than ten
feet away from you for six hours.
784
00:36:57,810 --> 00:37:00,176
I think you should direct your
questions to my attorney.
785
00:37:00,246 --> 00:37:02,373
Why do you need to hide
behind an attorney?
786
00:37:02,448 --> 00:37:05,383
I heard how you people
operate in New York.
787
00:37:05,451 --> 00:37:08,352
You indict them all and
let the jury sort them out.
788
00:37:08,421 --> 00:37:09,683
Did Neal Gorton tell you that?
789
00:37:09,755 --> 00:37:11,780
Mr. Gorton stopped by, yes.
790
00:37:11,857 --> 00:37:13,415
He threw around terms like
791
00:37:13,492 --> 00:37:15,585
"accessory after the fact,"
"criminal facilitation."
792
00:37:15,661 --> 00:37:18,630
How about "hindering prosecution?
" Did he mention that one?
793
00:37:18,698 --> 00:37:20,963
Because you're giving
a textbook example of it.
794
00:37:21,034 --> 00:37:24,868
We're not interested in prosecuting
anyone but Eddie Newman.
795
00:37:26,039 --> 00:37:28,734
Now, do you want to hear
our questions again?
796
00:37:32,545 --> 00:37:34,604
Mr. Newman was very jumpy.
797
00:37:34,680 --> 00:37:37,114
He was pacing
around the cabin a lot.
798
00:37:37,183 --> 00:37:38,616
I asked him
what was bothering him.
799
00:37:38,684 --> 00:37:41,482
He said it was just the
pressure of making a movie.
800
00:37:41,587 --> 00:37:44,215
Did he bring anything
on the plane with him?
801
00:37:45,224 --> 00:37:46,521
A couple of small carry-ons.
802
00:37:46,592 --> 00:37:49,584
I noticed that he took one of them with
him every time he went to the head.
803
00:37:49,662 --> 00:37:50,822
How often was that?
804
00:37:50,896 --> 00:37:53,160
He was in there
for a long time.
805
00:37:54,233 --> 00:37:58,226
Once, twice, then he'd come out.
His eyes were red.
806
00:37:59,839 --> 00:38:01,807
I thought he'd been crying.
807
00:38:03,008 --> 00:38:05,203
There's a weather front
moving in along the Aleutians.
808
00:38:05,277 --> 00:38:07,541
If we don't leave within a half
hour, we'll have to reroute.
809
00:38:07,613 --> 00:38:08,637
Tell Mr. Berger we're sorry,
810
00:38:08,714 --> 00:38:10,978
but the District Attorney himself
signed off on this warrant.
811
00:38:11,050 --> 00:38:14,019
We can't release the plane
until we complete the search.
812
00:38:15,755 --> 00:38:17,780
They Luminol'd the toilet,
sink and the drain pipes.
813
00:38:17,857 --> 00:38:18,881
They think
they found something.
814
00:38:18,958 --> 00:38:19,982
Blood?
815
00:38:20,059 --> 00:38:24,359
They won't know till they take the
sink and the pipes back to the lab.
816
00:38:24,430 --> 00:38:27,092
Looks like Mr. Berger's not
getting his plane back today.
817
00:38:27,166 --> 00:38:29,259
I'll break the news to him.
818
00:38:31,503 --> 00:38:32,994
I collected samples
from the joint
819
00:38:33,072 --> 00:38:35,802
surrounding the sink drain
and from the cleanout.
820
00:38:35,875 --> 00:38:37,035
I analyzed the samples,
821
00:38:37,109 --> 00:38:39,543
identified them
as blood type A-negative,
822
00:38:39,612 --> 00:38:41,307
the same as the victim Ellison.
823
00:38:41,380 --> 00:38:42,847
Mr. Hayashi,
to your knowledge,
824
00:38:42,915 --> 00:38:45,884
was the holding tank of the
chemical toilet searched?
825
00:38:45,951 --> 00:38:48,647
Yes. It was removed and then
brought back to the laboratory.
826
00:38:48,721 --> 00:38:52,851
Inside, I found a woman's signet ring
snagged on a piece of metal flashing.
827
00:38:52,925 --> 00:38:54,552
Please describe the ring.
828
00:38:54,627 --> 00:38:56,720
It's a size five-and-a-half
platinum ring,
829
00:38:56,796 --> 00:39:01,596
with three emerald baguettes forming the
letter "H" in a diamond chip setting.
830
00:39:03,134 --> 00:39:07,036
Your Honor, I'm showing what was
previously marked as People's Five.
831
00:39:08,974 --> 00:39:11,408
Mr. Hayashi,
is this the ring?
832
00:39:11,477 --> 00:39:12,603
Yes.
833
00:39:13,979 --> 00:39:16,243
People's Six, Your Honor.
834
00:39:17,516 --> 00:39:23,079
Mr. Hayashi, this is a photo of Heidi
Ellison taken March 10 of this year.
835
00:39:24,123 --> 00:39:26,318
Do you see
that ring in this photo?
836
00:39:26,392 --> 00:39:30,328
Yes. It's on the ring finger of Ms.
Ellison's right hand.
837
00:39:30,396 --> 00:39:31,795
Thank you.
838
00:39:33,631 --> 00:39:35,690
No more questions.
839
00:39:35,767 --> 00:39:37,166
Mr. Gorton?
840
00:39:39,838 --> 00:39:41,635
No questions, Your Honor.
841
00:39:43,007 --> 00:39:45,203
Mr. Hayashi,
you're excused.
842
00:39:46,979 --> 00:39:50,779
Your Honor, I submit there now
exists sufficient probable cause
843
00:39:50,850 --> 00:39:53,182
to support an arrest warrant.
844
00:39:53,252 --> 00:39:57,552
I respectfully request you grant the
governor's warrant for extradition.
845
00:40:02,194 --> 00:40:06,562
I order the governor's warrant for
extradition be executed forthwith.
846
00:40:07,532 --> 00:40:09,397
JUDGE VAN
Court's adjourned.
847
00:40:13,037 --> 00:40:14,766
Goodbye, Mr. McCoy.
848
00:40:17,909 --> 00:40:20,902
Don't gloat, Jamie.
It's only the first round.
849
00:40:20,980 --> 00:40:22,709
What are you hoping for?
Man one?
850
00:40:22,781 --> 00:40:24,942
Extreme emotional disturbance?
That's what I'd do.
851
00:40:25,017 --> 00:40:26,382
I know what you'd do.
852
00:40:26,452 --> 00:40:29,512
You'd put Jack McCoy's lights out.
You wouldn't take a plea.
853
00:40:29,588 --> 00:40:31,453
Newman is a
pill-popping egomaniac.
854
00:40:31,524 --> 00:40:33,788
He's not going to
give a jury the warm fuzzies.
855
00:40:33,859 --> 00:40:36,122
I'm gonna let you in on a little secret.
He's innocent.
856
00:40:36,194 --> 00:40:38,253
Like all our other clients?
857
00:40:38,329 --> 00:40:41,662
You mean they weren't
innocent? I'm shocked.
858
00:40:41,733 --> 00:40:42,961
What's this?
859
00:40:43,034 --> 00:40:46,003
A polygraph given yesterday.
He passed with flying colors.
860
00:40:46,070 --> 00:40:47,594
After how many dry runs?
861
00:40:47,672 --> 00:40:49,196
On the very first try.
862
00:40:54,245 --> 00:40:57,079
I wish you were working on my
side of the aisle on this one.
863
00:40:57,149 --> 00:40:58,207
We were good together.
864
00:40:58,284 --> 00:41:01,082
In court.
Everywhere else, we stunk.
865
00:41:01,687 --> 00:41:03,245
Oh, how quickly they forget.
866
00:41:04,823 --> 00:41:06,722
All right, there, too.
867
00:41:09,027 --> 00:41:11,552
So, how about our Katie?
868
00:41:11,629 --> 00:41:13,256
She learned to
write her name yesterday.
869
00:41:13,331 --> 00:41:14,457
When did you talk to her?
870
00:41:14,532 --> 00:41:15,965
I called her
on the way over here.
871
00:41:16,034 --> 00:41:17,160
I told her
we were having lunch.
872
00:41:17,235 --> 00:41:20,966
She said to say hi.
She's looking forward to seeing you tonight.
873
00:41:21,039 --> 00:41:22,939
I'll be on the red-eye.
874
00:41:24,342 --> 00:41:28,506
Well, it's lucky for you she gets
along so well with the nanny.
875
00:41:31,517 --> 00:41:33,985
The judge denied Newman's
bail and sent him to Rikers.
876
00:41:34,053 --> 00:41:36,248
He can start
an acting workshop.
877
00:41:36,322 --> 00:41:39,154
I talked to the IAB about Detective Miller.
He's suspended.
878
00:41:39,223 --> 00:41:41,384
We're coordinating
a joint investigation.
879
00:41:41,459 --> 00:41:43,086
Good. Bury him.
880
00:41:43,161 --> 00:41:44,788
He made us look
like a bunch of fools.
881
00:41:44,862 --> 00:41:46,159
It can't hurt us at trial.
882
00:41:46,230 --> 00:41:47,697
If we don't use the blood
evidence from the car,
883
00:41:47,765 --> 00:41:49,824
the defense can't beat us
over the head with Miller.
884
00:41:49,901 --> 00:41:51,801
I've been getting
calls about Mr. Grant.
885
00:41:51,869 --> 00:41:53,359
You didn't forget him, did you?
886
00:41:53,438 --> 00:41:55,872
I filed a notice of
dismissal this morning.
887
00:41:55,940 --> 00:41:58,568
I want him out of jail
by the 6:00 news.
888
00:42:00,011 --> 00:42:01,979
I haven't been home yet.
889
00:42:03,514 --> 00:42:05,539
I'll take care of it.
890
00:42:06,618 --> 00:42:09,348
The District Attorney has concluded
the weight of credible evidence
891
00:42:09,420 --> 00:42:11,650
against the defendant
will not sustain the charges
892
00:42:11,723 --> 00:42:14,556
and withdraws without prejudice
all pending criminal charges
893
00:42:14,626 --> 00:42:18,221
arising out of the events
described in the indictment.
894
00:42:18,296 --> 00:42:19,354
Thank you, Miss Ross.
895
00:42:20,131 --> 00:42:21,393
Mr. Grant,
896
00:42:23,468 --> 00:42:26,198
the charges against you
have been withdrawn.
897
00:42:26,270 --> 00:42:29,603
Your bail is exonerated,
and you are free to go.
898
00:42:29,674 --> 00:42:31,608
We're adjourned.
No, no!
899
00:42:31,676 --> 00:42:34,008
He killed my daughter.
You can't do this.
900
00:42:34,078 --> 00:42:35,238
Order.
You can't do this.
901
00:42:35,313 --> 00:42:37,304
Officer, please remove
him from my courtroom.
902
00:42:37,382 --> 00:42:39,907
This is wrong.
He's a murderer!
903
00:42:39,984 --> 00:42:42,178
Order.
That animal butchered my girl!
904
00:42:42,252 --> 00:42:43,311
Order!
905
00:42:43,388 --> 00:42:45,219
He's the one who did it,
not Eddie Newman.
906
00:42:45,289 --> 00:42:48,486
Eddie Newman passed a lie detector
test, and the D.A. Knows it.
907
00:42:48,559 --> 00:42:50,789
I have the results right here.
908
00:42:51,262 --> 00:42:54,163
The District Attorney has let
loose a monster upon this city.
909
00:42:54,232 --> 00:42:57,565
Evan Grant killed Heidi Ellison,
and he'll kill again.
910
00:42:57,635 --> 00:43:00,297
Miss Ross, is it true you
had the polygraph results?
911
00:43:00,371 --> 00:43:03,363
Lie detector tests are inadmissible
in court for good reason.
912
00:43:03,441 --> 00:43:06,706
They're unreliable.
Our evidence points to Mr. Newman's guilt.
913
00:43:06,778 --> 00:43:08,405
Miss Ross.
Miss Ross.
914
00:43:08,479 --> 00:43:10,538
Katie, honey, Mommy's home.
915
00:43:11,382 --> 00:43:12,848
Hi, Isabel.
Is Katie upstairs?
916
00:43:12,916 --> 00:43:14,508
No,
she's with Mr. Gorton.
917
00:43:14,584 --> 00:43:15,608
What?
918
00:43:15,686 --> 00:43:17,984
He was here just after
7:00 to see her.
919
00:43:18,055 --> 00:43:20,217
I told him you wouldn't
be home until later.
920
00:43:20,291 --> 00:43:21,588
He just took her?
921
00:43:21,659 --> 00:43:24,492
She said she wanted
to be with her Daddy.
922
00:43:24,562 --> 00:43:26,359
I'm sorry.
I didn't know what to do.
923
00:43:26,431 --> 00:43:28,524
It's all right, Isabel.
You didn't do anything wrong.
924
00:43:28,599 --> 00:43:32,433
He says he'll drop her off in the
morning, and he'll see you in court.
925
00:43:37,341 --> 00:43:38,831
You seen this?
926
00:43:39,877 --> 00:43:42,072
Maybe we should've released
him on a Saturday morning.
927
00:43:42,146 --> 00:43:45,512
Oh, that's very funny.
We're being excoriated.
928
00:43:45,582 --> 00:43:46,844
Where have you been?
929
00:43:46,917 --> 00:43:48,077
I took my daughter to school.
930
00:43:48,151 --> 00:43:49,709
Well, isn't that nice?
931
00:43:49,786 --> 00:43:52,949
Are you planning
any other family activities?
932
00:43:53,423 --> 00:43:54,447
It's hitting the fan.
933
00:43:54,524 --> 00:43:55,617
Oh, that?
934
00:43:55,693 --> 00:43:59,356
I heard Neal Gorton's firm paid
their airfare and hotel bills.
935
00:43:59,430 --> 00:44:01,364
And he leaked
the lie detector test.
936
00:44:01,432 --> 00:44:03,059
He's playing
to the jury pool, Adam.
937
00:44:03,134 --> 00:44:04,624
Then so should we.
938
00:44:05,203 --> 00:44:08,639
I want you to kick the living
daylights out of Neal Gorton.
939
00:44:08,706 --> 00:44:12,472
You can dig up Thomas Dewey to help you.
You're gonna win this case.
940
00:44:12,543 --> 00:44:15,443
Whatever you have to do,
I want a conviction.
