1
00:00:00,001 --> 00:00:03,769
In the criminal justice system,
the people are represented
2
00:00:03,771 --> 00:00:06,372
by two separate
yet equally important groups:
3
00:00:06,374 --> 00:00:08,407
the police,
who investigate crime,
4
00:00:08,409 --> 00:00:11,143
and the district attorneys,
who prosecute the offenders.
5
00:00:11,145 --> 00:00:13,445
These are their stories.
6
00:00:17,351 --> 00:00:20,419
( indistinct police radio
transmissions )
7
00:00:26,060 --> 00:00:28,193
I want the Cadi.
8
00:00:28,195 --> 00:00:31,263
I'm happy with the velour,
and not even leather.
9
00:00:31,265 --> 00:00:33,132
I'm happy.
10
00:00:33,134 --> 00:00:34,333
What do I end up with?
11
00:00:34,335 --> 00:00:36,335
A damn Asian ant box.
12
00:00:45,479 --> 00:00:49,415
( overlapping messages
over radio )
13
00:00:53,587 --> 00:00:56,155
Must have forgot
their keys.
14
00:00:56,157 --> 00:00:58,390
Hold it;
we got a vic.
15
00:00:58,392 --> 00:01:00,826
( siren wailing )
16
00:01:00,828 --> 00:01:03,429
( tires screeching )
17
00:01:07,134 --> 00:01:09,601
PARTNER:
Hey, watch it, Eddie--
he's got a gun!
18
00:01:17,611 --> 00:01:22,281
( sirens wailing in distance )
19
00:01:24,652 --> 00:01:25,651
Hey, Eddie,
forget the kid!
20
00:01:25,653 --> 00:01:27,653
This guy's
checking out!
21
00:01:38,432 --> 00:01:41,567
Since when's a ham
sandwich $2.75, Jesus?
22
00:01:41,569 --> 00:01:43,435
Since last Friday.
23
00:01:43,437 --> 00:01:46,538
I didn't know
ptomaine had gone up.
24
00:01:46,540 --> 00:01:48,674
We don't use none of that.
25
00:01:48,676 --> 00:01:51,110
It's all homemade.
26
00:01:54,181 --> 00:01:56,248
( horn honking )
27
00:02:00,221 --> 00:02:01,353
What?!
28
00:02:01,355 --> 00:02:03,689
We got a 10-20;
could be a homicide.
29
00:02:03,691 --> 00:02:05,557
Vic conscious?
30
00:02:05,559 --> 00:02:08,327
Nope. Ambulance
is on the way.
31
00:02:08,329 --> 00:02:10,295
Around the potholes, huh?
32
00:02:10,297 --> 00:02:14,266
The suit's just back
from the cleaners.
33
00:02:20,274 --> 00:02:22,274
Odds?
34
00:02:22,276 --> 00:02:25,544
EMT:
50-50, but I'm an optimist.
35
00:02:25,546 --> 00:02:28,147
I've seen this guy.
36
00:02:30,184 --> 00:02:32,584
Hochmeyer. Come here.
37
00:02:32,586 --> 00:02:34,453
Any I.D.?
38
00:02:34,455 --> 00:02:36,555
They took his wallet,
but we ran the car.
39
00:02:36,557 --> 00:02:38,157
Hey, who owns the Benz?
40
00:02:38,159 --> 00:02:40,192
Eddie, come on.
41
00:02:40,194 --> 00:02:44,263
It's registered to
Charles Halsey in Kew Gardens.
42
00:02:47,201 --> 00:02:49,468
Oh, that's great,
that's just terrific.
43
00:02:49,470 --> 00:02:51,203
You know the guy?
44
00:02:51,205 --> 00:02:52,571
Councilman Halsey?
Ring a bell?
45
00:02:52,573 --> 00:02:54,473
Dirtbag was always
mouthing off
46
00:02:54,475 --> 00:02:56,708
about the streets
being unsafe?
47
00:02:56,710 --> 00:02:59,645
I hate media cases.
48
00:02:59,647 --> 00:03:03,782
Captioning sponsored by
NBC/UNIVERSAL
49
00:04:21,895 --> 00:04:24,029
Ooh, they try
to get close to you,
50
00:04:24,031 --> 00:04:27,466
looking for anything that they
can get 500 words out of you.
51
00:04:27,468 --> 00:04:30,469
99% of them don't care about
you, the case, or who they hurt.
52
00:04:30,471 --> 00:04:31,470
They just want
to sell papers.
53
00:04:31,472 --> 00:04:32,904
And if you talk to them,
54
00:04:32,906 --> 00:04:34,473
they start calling
you at the office,
55
00:04:34,475 --> 00:04:35,474
tying up the lines.
56
00:04:35,476 --> 00:04:36,975
If you don't
talk to them,
57
00:04:36,977 --> 00:04:39,344
they starting writing about
how the police are stymied.
58
00:04:39,346 --> 00:04:42,547
Then, phone calls come in
from the brass downtown.
59
00:04:42,549 --> 00:04:44,016
You can't smoke that
in here.
60
00:04:44,018 --> 00:04:45,617
It's not lit.
61
00:04:45,619 --> 00:04:47,753
Not bad, Max.
62
00:04:47,755 --> 00:04:49,921
A prophet
in your own time.
63
00:04:49,923 --> 00:04:51,490
...was big news to you people.
64
00:04:51,492 --> 00:04:53,925
Then, you all just got tired
of hearing the truth.
65
00:04:53,927 --> 00:04:55,927
Oh, sure, you were all there
at his press conferences,
66
00:04:55,929 --> 00:04:58,930
but he was just exercising
his lungs.
( camera clicking )
67
00:04:58,932 --> 00:04:59,998
Now do you understand
68
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:02,067
what Chuck Halsey
was screaming about?
69
00:05:02,069 --> 00:05:03,935
Our streets aren't safe
for anyone.
70
00:05:03,937 --> 00:05:06,705
You can check with our
office on Chuck's condition.
71
00:05:06,707 --> 00:05:08,640
We'll have regular
medical updates.
72
00:05:08,642 --> 00:05:10,609
Thank you, ladies
and gentlemen.
73
00:05:10,611 --> 00:05:12,544
( reporters clamoring )
74
00:05:12,546 --> 00:05:14,613
REPORTER:
Do you have any idea
what your husband was doing
75
00:05:14,615 --> 00:05:16,515
in that neighborhood
late at night?
76
00:05:16,517 --> 00:05:18,750
Excuse me.
77
00:05:23,023 --> 00:05:25,490
DOCTOR:
Go home and get some sleep.
78
00:05:25,492 --> 00:05:27,626
He made it through the surgery,
and that's half the battle.
79
00:05:27,628 --> 00:05:31,530
We'll call you immediately
if anything changes.
80
00:05:31,532 --> 00:05:34,399
Thank you, Doctor.
81
00:05:34,401 --> 00:05:36,068
Who are you?
82
00:05:36,070 --> 00:05:38,537
I'm Detective Logan,
this is Detective Greevey.
83
00:05:38,539 --> 00:05:40,672
I'm sorry
about your husband, ma'am.
84
00:05:40,674 --> 00:05:42,341
You're the investigating
officers?
85
00:05:42,343 --> 00:05:43,542
LOGAN:
Yeah.
86
00:05:43,544 --> 00:05:45,510
We heard
it was two black kids.
87
00:05:45,512 --> 00:05:46,511
You have anything else?
88
00:05:46,513 --> 00:05:48,547
Not yet.
89
00:05:48,549 --> 00:05:52,417
Could you give me
a description of his
personal items, ma'am?
90
00:05:52,419 --> 00:05:56,488
He always carried a, uh,
a brown alligator wallet,
91
00:05:56,490 --> 00:05:59,624
and, um, he had a
star sapphire ring
92
00:05:59,626 --> 00:06:02,427
and a gold
and diamond Rolex,
93
00:06:02,429 --> 00:06:05,530
and he always had
about $500 cash.
94
00:06:05,532 --> 00:06:07,799
Your husband
have any enemies?
95
00:06:07,801 --> 00:06:09,735
CONTI:
Chuck Halsey is one
of the most respected
96
00:06:09,737 --> 00:06:11,603
and liked men
in this district.
97
00:06:11,605 --> 00:06:14,573
I'm sure he is. Ma'am?
98
00:06:14,575 --> 00:06:16,575
What are you asking me?
99
00:06:16,577 --> 00:06:18,077
I thought you knew
who did it.
100
00:06:18,078 --> 00:06:19,578
LOGAN:
No, we knew
two black kids were there.
101
00:06:19,580 --> 00:06:21,580
They didn't drive him
to that location.
102
00:06:21,582 --> 00:06:23,648
Do you have any idea
what he was doing
way out there?
103
00:06:25,619 --> 00:06:27,619
Chuck had
a political dinner.
104
00:06:27,621 --> 00:06:30,088
I was there;
it ended around 10:30.
105
00:06:30,090 --> 00:06:31,623
LOGAN:
Did he leave alone?
106
00:06:31,625 --> 00:06:33,592
I have no idea.
107
00:06:33,594 --> 00:06:37,796
Are you going to be able
to catch these... kids?
108
00:06:37,798 --> 00:06:39,531
I'm not going
to lie to you.
109
00:06:39,533 --> 00:06:42,167
It will take a break
or a miracle.
110
00:06:42,169 --> 00:06:44,102
What kind
of miracle?
111
00:06:44,104 --> 00:06:47,539
One of them walking in
and confessing might help.
112
00:06:49,143 --> 00:06:52,477
We have to get back
to the precinct garage.
113
00:06:52,479 --> 00:06:54,613
We'll try to get your car
back to you
114
00:06:54,615 --> 00:06:55,747
as soon as possible, ma'am.
115
00:06:55,749 --> 00:06:58,583
Thank you,
Detective.
116
00:07:00,854 --> 00:07:04,656
It's okay, it's okay.
117
00:07:06,093 --> 00:07:08,093
That was smart.
118
00:07:08,095 --> 00:07:11,163
Hey, there's no sense in
her having any illusions.
119
00:07:11,165 --> 00:07:13,866
Oh, right.
120
00:07:13,867 --> 00:07:16,568
Conti got a real charge
out of your sense of humor.
121
00:07:16,570 --> 00:07:18,537
Yeah?
122
00:07:18,539 --> 00:07:22,541
Are you trying to tell me
this thing plays straight?
123
00:07:22,543 --> 00:07:24,509
Let's check Halsey's car.
124
00:07:24,511 --> 00:07:29,080
What was he doing there
after a political dinner?
125
00:07:29,082 --> 00:07:31,550
Let's check the car.
126
00:07:31,552 --> 00:07:32,751
Oh, well,
wait a minute.
127
00:07:32,753 --> 00:07:34,786
Wait a minute.
128
00:07:34,788 --> 00:07:36,855
What do you got?
129
00:07:38,525 --> 00:07:40,525
Old rumors.
130
00:07:40,527 --> 00:07:44,496
That's great;
what kind?
131
00:07:44,498 --> 00:07:47,666
Rumor was that he ran the
pad in the criminal courts.
132
00:07:47,668 --> 00:07:49,668
He's a bagman?
133
00:07:49,670 --> 00:07:51,670
Was...
134
00:07:51,672 --> 00:07:54,539
if you believe
the rumors.
135
00:07:54,541 --> 00:07:57,676
This really frosts
my cookies, Max.
136
00:07:57,678 --> 00:08:01,546
You mind telling me
why you didn't tell me?
137
00:08:01,548 --> 00:08:03,248
Because you're already
leaping to conclusions
138
00:08:03,250 --> 00:08:05,650
for Pete's sakes.
139
00:08:05,652 --> 00:08:08,553
About the only probable
conclusion that we can draw
140
00:08:08,555 --> 00:08:12,257
is that the black kids
took whatever they found.
141
00:08:15,562 --> 00:08:17,696
Let's check the car.
142
00:08:24,238 --> 00:08:28,573
60 bucks for a damn key.
143
00:08:28,575 --> 00:08:30,575
I could have popped
the thing for nothing.
144
00:08:30,577 --> 00:08:33,645
Car belongs
to a councilman.
145
00:08:36,850 --> 00:08:38,850
Is that real?
146
00:08:38,852 --> 00:08:41,253
How much?
147
00:08:41,255 --> 00:08:43,255
12 and up.
148
00:08:43,257 --> 00:08:46,625
Must be crazy
about his old lady.
149
00:08:48,695 --> 00:08:51,263
GREEVEY:
I don't want to tell her,
but what else
150
00:08:51,265 --> 00:08:52,764
can we do?
151
00:08:52,766 --> 00:08:54,866
But Halsey could still
pull through, right?
152
00:08:54,868 --> 00:08:56,768
Eight to five, against.
153
00:08:56,770 --> 00:08:59,838
Surgeon says
it's in God's hands.
154
00:08:59,840 --> 00:09:01,840
Well, that must
be comforting.
155
00:09:01,842 --> 00:09:03,542
Well?
156
00:09:03,544 --> 00:09:06,578
The guy wakes up, and the coat
wasn't for the wife
157
00:09:06,580 --> 00:09:08,580
and we've told her...
158
00:09:08,582 --> 00:09:09,681
Thanks for your help,
Captain.
159
00:09:09,683 --> 00:09:12,684
Keep in touch.
160
00:09:14,621 --> 00:09:17,622
Since when does that mean
we don't go?
161
00:09:17,624 --> 00:09:18,890
Hey, Max.
Yeah.
162
00:09:18,892 --> 00:09:20,692
Jacobson down at the trib.
163
00:09:20,694 --> 00:09:23,228
I'm out.
164
00:09:28,602 --> 00:09:30,602
No labels.
165
00:09:30,604 --> 00:09:32,804
Maggie's got
a friend.
166
00:09:32,806 --> 00:09:34,639
Works for a furrier.
167
00:09:34,641 --> 00:09:37,042
MAN:
You catch
the Halsey mugging?
168
00:09:37,044 --> 00:09:38,677
Yeah.
169
00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:40,645
Give Perez a call
in Narco.
170
00:09:40,647 --> 00:09:42,631
Perez?
171
00:09:42,632 --> 00:09:44,616
He's the one doesn't shave?
Yeah.
172
00:09:44,618 --> 00:09:46,301
We take down the crack house
173
00:09:46,302 --> 00:09:47,985
and roll up
this scum ball dealer Rodriguez,
174
00:09:47,988 --> 00:09:49,621
along with
the half a dozen customers.
175
00:09:49,623 --> 00:09:51,022
Rodriguez is on probation
176
00:09:51,024 --> 00:09:53,325
and knows he's going back
for a deuce,
177
00:09:53,327 --> 00:09:56,661
so he gives us this kid
who he says came in with a wad
178
00:09:56,663 --> 00:10:00,932
that he had taken off
some white dude in a Mercedes.
179
00:10:00,934 --> 00:10:02,767
When I got in here,
180
00:10:02,769 --> 00:10:07,906
I read the APB,
and, boom, called upstairs.
181
00:10:08,842 --> 00:10:11,876
LOGAN:
Monster case of the yips?
182
00:10:11,878 --> 00:10:13,778
GREEVEY:
He's good for nothing
till he comes down.
183
00:10:13,780 --> 00:10:15,880
LOGAN:
Nah, I'm going to have him
singing the name game
184
00:10:15,882 --> 00:10:17,282
in five minutes.
185
00:10:17,284 --> 00:10:19,851
What, $20?
186
00:10:27,394 --> 00:10:29,694
Rodriguez would rat out
his own mama.
187
00:10:29,696 --> 00:10:31,847
Don't know nothing!
188
00:10:31,848 --> 00:10:33,999
And you ain't got squat on me,
except for what he said,
189
00:10:34,001 --> 00:10:36,001
and that's just heresy.
190
00:10:36,003 --> 00:10:38,737
The word's hearsay, Simonize.
191
00:10:38,739 --> 00:10:39,938
Yeah, that's it,
192
00:10:39,940 --> 00:10:42,707
and I be good
for no say.
193
00:10:42,709 --> 00:10:44,409
Hey, shut up.
194
00:10:44,411 --> 00:10:47,646
We don't dig being dissed
by lightweights.
195
00:10:47,648 --> 00:10:49,347
Mike, Mike,
196
00:10:49,349 --> 00:10:52,784
he's not being disrespectful;
he's just being reflective.
197
00:10:55,689 --> 00:10:57,422
What are you
looking at?
198
00:10:57,424 --> 00:10:59,424
Turn around.
199
00:11:00,961 --> 00:11:03,695
Eight arrests
and he still doesn't get it?
200
00:11:03,697 --> 00:11:09,401
Hey, judges help those
who help themselves.
201
00:11:09,403 --> 00:11:11,036
Going...
202
00:11:11,038 --> 00:11:14,105
Now, I'm not talking
about a year in Spofford.
203
00:11:14,107 --> 00:11:16,741
Going...
204
00:11:16,743 --> 00:11:18,076
Don't be stupid!
Gone.
205
00:11:18,078 --> 00:11:20,679
Back to your
cage, Simonize.
206
00:11:20,681 --> 00:11:22,447
Get up.
207
00:11:25,719 --> 00:11:28,720
Simonize.
What a surprise.
208
00:11:28,722 --> 00:11:31,389
You getting some career
counseling from Greevey?
209
00:11:31,391 --> 00:11:32,424
I ain't
done nothing!
210
00:11:32,426 --> 00:11:33,825
Such a polite young man.
211
00:11:33,827 --> 00:11:35,093
Well, of course, you haven't.
212
00:11:35,095 --> 00:11:37,696
We always go out
and arrest innocent people.
213
00:11:37,698 --> 00:11:38,830
Who does this jerk
hang with?
214
00:11:38,832 --> 00:11:40,765
How's Tremaine
these days?
215
00:11:40,767 --> 00:11:43,902
Ain't seen him.
It's amazing how you homeboys
are always apart.
216
00:11:43,904 --> 00:11:46,071
Tremaine Lewis.
I got his address upstairs.
217
00:11:46,073 --> 00:11:48,773
Simonize lives
with his grandmother.
218
00:11:48,775 --> 00:11:50,909
( chuckles )
Grandmother?!
219
00:11:50,911 --> 00:11:55,146
( laughter in distance )
220
00:12:02,456 --> 00:12:04,456
You the man?
221
00:12:04,458 --> 00:12:06,458
We sure are, honey.
222
00:12:06,460 --> 00:12:09,160
( pounding on door )
223
00:12:11,164 --> 00:12:13,798
WOMAN:
Who is it?
224
00:12:13,800 --> 00:12:16,735
GREEVEY:
Police, Mrs. Jackson.
225
00:12:16,737 --> 00:12:19,804
You sure this paper
says you can do that
226
00:12:19,806 --> 00:12:22,073
even when he ain't here?
227
00:12:22,075 --> 00:12:24,075
Yes, ma'am.
228
00:12:24,077 --> 00:12:27,946
That's a search warrant,
signed by a judge.
229
00:12:27,948 --> 00:12:29,948
First time
the police
230
00:12:29,950 --> 00:12:32,517
ever brought
a search warrant.
231
00:12:32,519 --> 00:12:37,021
Simon done something real bad
this time, huh?
232
00:12:42,529 --> 00:12:44,529
Yes, ma'am.
233
00:12:44,531 --> 00:12:47,098
Looks that way.
234
00:12:47,100 --> 00:12:49,467
Lots of noise.
235
00:12:49,469 --> 00:12:51,803
Plenty of warning.
236
00:12:58,411 --> 00:13:01,813
GREEVEY:
Tremaine Lewis! NYPD.
237
00:13:04,217 --> 00:13:07,085
Drop the gun, Tremaine!
238
00:13:20,534 --> 00:13:22,801
Give it up!
239
00:13:33,146 --> 00:13:35,180
GREEVEY:
Look at me when I'm talking
to you!
240
00:13:37,117 --> 00:13:39,150
And if the
councilman croaks,
241
00:13:39,152 --> 00:13:42,987
you guys move up to
the bigs, murder two.
242
00:13:42,989 --> 00:13:44,422
We're telling you
the truth, man.
243
00:13:44,424 --> 00:13:47,158
We didn't do nothing
to him.
244
00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:48,526
You guys willing
to swear
245
00:13:48,528 --> 00:13:52,030
you two were together
the whole night?
246
00:13:52,032 --> 00:13:55,466
You got that right.
Hmm?
247
00:13:57,437 --> 00:14:01,039
You know what we found
in Simonize's apartment?
248
00:14:05,879 --> 00:14:08,880
I ain't never seen that.
249
00:14:08,882 --> 00:14:11,883
Simonize, you holding out
on your main man?
250
00:14:14,254 --> 00:14:17,488
That is the vic's watch.
251
00:14:22,028 --> 00:14:24,896
Anybody want to make a deal?
252
00:14:24,898 --> 00:14:26,865
( door opens )
253
00:14:26,867 --> 00:14:29,200
You didn't plea these guys,
did you?
254
00:14:29,202 --> 00:14:31,569
We're still talking.
255
00:14:31,571 --> 00:14:32,570
Stop.
256
00:14:32,572 --> 00:14:35,607
Councilman?
257
00:14:40,580 --> 00:14:42,046
Now, wait a damn minute...
258
00:14:43,149 --> 00:14:45,583
He's saying
the dude croaked?
259
00:14:45,585 --> 00:14:48,319
I'm saying you blew it.
260
00:14:48,321 --> 00:14:51,289
Look, he was already cut
261
00:14:51,291 --> 00:14:52,958
when we got there.
262
00:14:52,959 --> 00:14:54,626
We took them off,
but we didn't do nothing to him.
263
00:14:54,628 --> 00:14:55,927
He's telling the truth.
264
00:14:55,929 --> 00:14:57,061
He was just lying
there bleeding.
265
00:14:57,063 --> 00:14:58,563
It was that white cat
266
00:14:58,565 --> 00:15:00,815
in the Benz.
267
00:15:00,816 --> 00:15:03,066
He got out as soon as
the truck pulled off.
268
00:15:03,069 --> 00:15:04,502
What truck?
269
00:15:04,504 --> 00:15:07,605
I've been thinking
about yesterday.
270
00:15:07,607 --> 00:15:09,207
That was great.
271
00:15:09,209 --> 00:15:11,943
I thought Halsey
had croaked.
272
00:15:11,945 --> 00:15:14,279
Tony Halliwell?
Yeah?
273
00:15:14,281 --> 00:15:16,547
I'm Detective Greevey,
this is Detective Logan.
274
00:15:16,549 --> 00:15:18,349
Is there a problem?
275
00:15:18,351 --> 00:15:21,552
Dispatcher said you made a late
delivery on Tuesday night.
276
00:15:21,554 --> 00:15:24,322
Uh-huh.
Anybody else here
when you arrived?
277
00:15:24,324 --> 00:15:26,624
Just the night man;
he was inside.
278
00:15:26,626 --> 00:15:28,293
And outside?
279
00:15:28,295 --> 00:15:33,564
Yeah, there were a couple
of cars parked right there:
280
00:15:33,566 --> 00:15:37,201
a gray Mercedes
and a red Jag XJ-S.
281
00:15:37,203 --> 00:15:38,937
Hey, that's very observant,
Tony.
282
00:15:38,939 --> 00:15:40,238
Yeah, I like cars.
283
00:15:40,240 --> 00:15:41,572
You see anything else?
284
00:15:41,574 --> 00:15:43,057
Yeah, when I drove in,
285
00:15:43,058 --> 00:15:44,541
there were two guys
at the rear of the jag.
286
00:15:44,544 --> 00:15:45,610
Trunk pops open,
287
00:15:45,612 --> 00:15:47,345
guy reaches in pulls
out a fur coat
288
00:15:47,347 --> 00:15:49,080
and hands it
to the other guy.
289
00:15:49,082 --> 00:15:50,715
Could you identify them?
290
00:15:50,717 --> 00:15:51,950
Yeah, sure.
291
00:15:51,952 --> 00:15:53,835
Then what happened?
292
00:15:53,836 --> 00:15:55,719
The other guy opens up
the trunk of the Mercedes
293
00:15:55,722 --> 00:15:58,473
puts it in there.
294
00:15:58,474 --> 00:16:01,225
They both climb into the
Mercedes, and I go inside.
295
00:16:01,227 --> 00:16:02,293
Thanks.
296
00:16:02,295 --> 00:16:04,562
You've been very helpful.
297
00:16:04,564 --> 00:16:06,965
Sure.
298
00:16:26,386 --> 00:16:28,353
I didn't know you hung
with the carriage trade.
299
00:16:28,355 --> 00:16:29,620
Hello to you, too.
300
00:16:29,622 --> 00:16:30,722
Max.
301
00:16:30,724 --> 00:16:32,090
Maggie.
302
00:16:32,092 --> 00:16:33,157
Second floor.
303
00:16:33,159 --> 00:16:34,726
Talk to her boss.
304
00:16:34,728 --> 00:16:37,295
She thinks
he'll know who made it.
305
00:16:37,297 --> 00:16:39,430
So is this good
for a dinner?
306
00:16:39,432 --> 00:16:41,632
Well, that depends on
what dinner's good for.
307
00:16:41,634 --> 00:16:43,034
Oh. Well, let's put it
this way:
308
00:16:43,036 --> 00:16:44,769
you don't have a chance in hell
without it.
309
00:16:44,771 --> 00:16:46,371
Very cold, Maggie.
310
00:16:46,373 --> 00:16:50,008
So light my fire.
311
00:16:50,010 --> 00:16:52,276
MAN:
And then, among lynx,
312
00:16:52,278 --> 00:16:55,213
there are as many variations
as there are among people.
313
00:16:55,215 --> 00:16:58,750
So is this coat Meryl Streep
or Whoopi Goldberg?
314
00:16:58,752 --> 00:17:00,718
More the latter
than the former, I'm afraid.
315
00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:04,322
Canadian farm grown, male pelts,
basic coat, not a designer's.
316
00:17:04,324 --> 00:17:05,974
Flash but basically trash.
317
00:17:05,975 --> 00:17:07,625
You mind if we cut
to the chase, Mr. Farber?
318
00:17:07,627 --> 00:17:09,694
Oh. There are
about three furriers
319
00:17:09,696 --> 00:17:11,329
who do these type
of garbage goods,
320
00:17:11,331 --> 00:17:13,698
but your best bet
is Kornbluth on 22nd.
321
00:17:13,700 --> 00:17:16,034
MAN:
They're Russians, you cretin.
322
00:17:16,036 --> 00:17:19,203
Don't give them a dime
until you have the pelts.
323
00:17:19,205 --> 00:17:21,105
What?
324
00:17:21,107 --> 00:17:22,373
You Kornbluth?
325
00:17:22,375 --> 00:17:25,410
There hasn't been a Kornbluth
here since 1957.
326
00:17:25,412 --> 00:17:26,677
I'm Swersky.
327
00:17:26,679 --> 00:17:28,212
What do you want?
328
00:17:28,214 --> 00:17:29,814
Where's the owner?
329
00:17:29,816 --> 00:17:31,749
What is this,
20 questions?
330
00:17:31,751 --> 00:17:35,787
I'm Detective Logan,
and this is Detective Greevey.
331
00:17:35,789 --> 00:17:39,157
Now, is this your coat?
332
00:17:39,159 --> 00:17:41,359
Possible.
333
00:17:41,361 --> 00:17:43,227
I mean, it looks
like one of mine,
334
00:17:43,229 --> 00:17:45,229
but I don't know
every coat.
335
00:17:45,231 --> 00:17:49,367
Now you're starting
to tick me off, Mr. Swersky.
336
00:17:49,369 --> 00:17:51,369
Why is it I think
that Mr. Swersky
337
00:17:51,371 --> 00:17:54,505
recognized that coat the minute
it walked in the door?
338
00:17:54,507 --> 00:17:56,340
You want to tell me
what you want.
339
00:17:56,342 --> 00:17:57,475
No.
340
00:17:57,477 --> 00:17:59,811
Who bought the coat?
341
00:17:59,813 --> 00:18:01,412
It was a gift.
342
00:18:01,414 --> 00:18:03,681
What kind of car
do you drive?
343
00:18:03,683 --> 00:18:06,084
A Cadillac
Coupe de Ville.
344
00:18:06,086 --> 00:18:07,485
Why?
345
00:18:07,487 --> 00:18:09,520
Who was the gift for?
346
00:18:09,522 --> 00:18:11,389
You know, I really think maybe
347
00:18:11,391 --> 00:18:14,492
I should give
my attorney a call, huh?
348
00:18:14,494 --> 00:18:17,228
Absolutely.
349
00:18:17,230 --> 00:18:19,230
Feel free.
350
00:18:19,232 --> 00:18:22,767
Maybe I should give Gaffner
a call down at the firehouse.
351
00:18:22,769 --> 00:18:24,869
Now, aren't some of those pelts
352
00:18:24,871 --> 00:18:27,405
covering
fire sprinklers?
353
00:18:27,407 --> 00:18:31,309
And call Ulasewicz over at
the buildings department.
354
00:18:31,311 --> 00:18:34,479
I saw a lot
of violations.
355
00:18:36,416 --> 00:18:39,550
Tony Scalisi.
356
00:18:39,552 --> 00:18:43,754
Where do I know that name?
357
00:18:46,459 --> 00:18:49,160
Masucci family.
358
00:18:49,162 --> 00:18:51,562
God, he finds out
I told you...
359
00:18:51,564 --> 00:18:54,232
Why did he want the coat?
360
00:18:54,234 --> 00:18:56,467
What am I, Karnak?
361
00:19:00,173 --> 00:19:01,839
Trucker give you
a positive I.D.?
362
00:19:01,841 --> 00:19:03,174
Right from the picture.
363
00:19:03,176 --> 00:19:04,775
So did Lewis
and Jackson.
364
00:19:04,777 --> 00:19:06,410
Read the rap sheet.
365
00:19:06,412 --> 00:19:09,213
Mr. Scalisi likes
to slice and dice.
366
00:19:09,215 --> 00:19:12,817
And guess who leases
a red Jaguar XJ-S?
367
00:19:12,819 --> 00:19:14,452
Halsey regain consciousness?
368
00:19:14,454 --> 00:19:16,854
GREEVEY:
Doctors aren't very optimistic.
369
00:19:16,856 --> 00:19:20,191
Captain, why don't we wait
to see if Halsey buys the farm.
370
00:19:20,193 --> 00:19:21,859
Murder's a better collar.
371
00:19:21,861 --> 00:19:24,428
I'm getting
my butt barbecued.
372
00:19:24,430 --> 00:19:26,931
Borough president
called for a task force.
373
00:19:26,933 --> 00:19:28,466
He wants to take it
away from us.
374
00:19:28,468 --> 00:19:30,801
Deputy Commander Jefferson
calls twice a day.
375
00:19:30,803 --> 00:19:32,336
What's he want?
376
00:19:32,338 --> 00:19:33,471
Doesn't want me
to forget
377
00:19:33,473 --> 00:19:37,542
that this is
a politically sensitive case.
378
00:19:39,479 --> 00:19:41,579
I don't want to wait.
379
00:19:41,581 --> 00:19:43,414
Get a warrant.
380
00:19:44,484 --> 00:19:47,285
Go on.
381
00:19:47,287 --> 00:19:49,520
Yes, sir.
382
00:19:56,563 --> 00:19:57,895
Which night school
Clarence Darrow
383
00:19:57,897 --> 00:20:01,365
is handling this?
384
00:20:01,367 --> 00:20:04,335
Name's Robinette.
385
00:20:04,337 --> 00:20:07,505
$20 says he won't file.
386
00:20:07,507 --> 00:20:10,908
These defensive bets
are going to kill you.
387
00:20:10,910 --> 00:20:16,981
( overlapping conversing )
388
00:20:20,820 --> 00:20:22,520
MAN:
And then, what happened?
389
00:20:22,522 --> 00:20:25,223
And after that,
he picks up the baby,
390
00:20:25,225 --> 00:20:27,525
and he starts shaking her.
391
00:20:27,527 --> 00:20:29,493
And her head
just starts flopping...
Thank you.
392
00:20:29,495 --> 00:20:32,463
Is that when
you called 911?
393
00:20:33,499 --> 00:20:35,399
MAN:
Well, if it was self-defense
394
00:20:35,401 --> 00:20:37,468
how come you shot him
in the back?
395
00:20:41,641 --> 00:20:43,541
Robinette?
396
00:20:43,543 --> 00:20:44,875
Uh, Logan.
397
00:20:44,877 --> 00:20:48,246
Greevey, he's Logan.
398
00:20:48,248 --> 00:20:51,515
Stone's willing to file,
but it's a reach.
399
00:20:51,517 --> 00:20:53,851
I've sent a lot
of guys away
400
00:20:53,853 --> 00:20:55,987
on circumstantial
evidence.
401
00:20:55,989 --> 00:20:58,856
Anyway, I think this
is more than that.
402
00:20:58,858 --> 00:21:00,458
What kind of more?
403
00:21:00,460 --> 00:21:02,293
You know that Halsey
was a bagman?
404
00:21:02,295 --> 00:21:04,929
Stone mentioned that.
405
00:21:04,930 --> 00:21:07,564
Then mention to
Stone that Deputy
Commander Jefferson
406
00:21:07,567 --> 00:21:09,433
has been nosing around.
407
00:21:09,435 --> 00:21:12,003
Tell him I thought
he'd like to know.
408
00:21:12,005 --> 00:21:13,504
You're new, aren't you?
409
00:21:13,506 --> 00:21:15,973
How long you been
with Stone?
410
00:21:15,975 --> 00:21:17,041
Eight months.
411
00:21:17,043 --> 00:21:19,343
Must be a record.
412
00:21:20,546 --> 00:21:23,514
See you in court.
413
00:21:26,519 --> 00:21:28,519
Must be out.
414
00:21:28,521 --> 00:21:30,521
No answer.
415
00:21:30,523 --> 00:21:32,323
You guys
just got lucky.
416
00:21:32,325 --> 00:21:34,558
Here he comes.
417
00:21:34,560 --> 00:21:38,462
I hate pit bulls.
418
00:21:38,464 --> 00:21:40,665
If he drops the leash,
shoot the dog first.
419
00:21:40,667 --> 00:21:42,667
Go over there.
420
00:21:45,738 --> 00:21:48,339
Anthony Scalisi, I have
a warrant for your arrest.
421
00:21:48,341 --> 00:21:50,308
Don't move.
422
00:21:50,310 --> 00:21:52,643
( dog growling )
423
00:21:56,949 --> 00:21:59,350
What's the charge?
424
00:21:59,352 --> 00:22:01,052
Assault with a deadly weapon
and the attempted murder
425
00:22:01,054 --> 00:22:02,553
of Charles Halsey.
426
00:22:06,459 --> 00:22:08,993
Spuds moves, you're history.
427
00:22:13,032 --> 00:22:14,899
MAN:
Criminal possession of a weapon
428
00:22:14,901 --> 00:22:17,068
in the third degree,
criminal possession of a weapon
429
00:22:17,070 --> 00:22:18,903
in the second degree,
assault in the second degree,
430
00:22:18,905 --> 00:22:20,071
assault in the first degree
431
00:22:20,073 --> 00:22:21,873
attempted murder
in the second degree.
432
00:22:21,874 --> 00:22:23,674
Counselor, waive reading
of the rights and charges?
433
00:22:23,676 --> 00:22:24,775
So waived.
434
00:22:24,777 --> 00:22:25,943
And how does
your client plead?
435
00:22:25,945 --> 00:22:27,378
Not guilty.
436
00:22:27,380 --> 00:22:30,014
JUDGE:
People on bail?
437
00:22:30,016 --> 00:22:32,049
Your Honor, the defendant
has been convicted
438
00:22:32,051 --> 00:22:33,084
of murder once before.
439
00:22:33,086 --> 00:22:35,453
He is a repeat offender.
440
00:22:35,455 --> 00:22:37,388
He's a soldier
in the Masucci family
441
00:22:37,390 --> 00:22:39,390
and is considered a flight risk.
442
00:22:39,392 --> 00:22:42,460
This office requests
that he be held without bail.
443
00:22:42,462 --> 00:22:44,095
I'm afraid I am loathe
to withhold bail
444
00:22:44,097 --> 00:22:46,497
on all except homicide cases,
Counselor.
445
00:22:48,534 --> 00:22:50,401
$100,000...
446
00:22:50,403 --> 00:22:51,936
cash or bond.
447
00:22:51,938 --> 00:22:53,137
Short date.
448
00:22:56,909 --> 00:22:58,876
Thought Stone would be here.
449
00:22:58,878 --> 00:23:00,878
At a button man's
arraignment?
450
00:23:00,880 --> 00:23:02,446
Have no fear, Eddie.
451
00:23:02,447 --> 00:23:04,013
Stone's looking forward
to seeing you in court.
452
00:23:04,016 --> 00:23:05,116
What's
his schedule like?
453
00:23:05,118 --> 00:23:07,017
Depends on who's coming
to call.
454
00:23:07,019 --> 00:23:08,119
Come on, Paul,
this whole thing
455
00:23:08,121 --> 00:23:10,121
is just one step
above a roust.
456
00:23:10,123 --> 00:23:11,122
It's a two-minute
negotiation.
457
00:23:11,124 --> 00:23:13,023
I wouldn't count on it.
458
00:23:13,025 --> 00:23:15,025
Halsey's still
touch and go.
459
00:23:15,027 --> 00:23:17,395
Nobody dies
of a knife wound
460
00:23:17,397 --> 00:23:18,996
a week later.
461
00:23:18,998 --> 00:23:20,965
Predicate violence?
462
00:23:20,967 --> 00:23:24,168
Stone hates pleading
on predicate violence.
463
00:23:32,178 --> 00:23:33,778
( knocking )
464
00:23:35,181 --> 00:23:38,048
( whispering: )
Cosmatos.
465
00:23:38,050 --> 00:23:41,419
Call me irresponsible,
Eddie, but I like you.
466
00:23:41,421 --> 00:23:43,421
You're a hell
of a lawyer.
467
00:23:43,423 --> 00:23:46,090
That's why I'm always amazed
at how incredibly guilty
468
00:23:46,092 --> 00:23:47,425
your clients are.
469
00:23:47,427 --> 00:23:49,527
Scalisi's lower
than snake spit.
470
00:23:49,529 --> 00:23:51,128
Well, you want to waste
471
00:23:51,130 --> 00:23:54,799
more of your client's money,
come on down Thursday.
472
00:23:56,102 --> 00:23:59,904
I'm Eddie Cosmatos.
473
00:23:59,906 --> 00:24:02,506
I can't wait to put this
in front of a jury.
474
00:24:02,508 --> 00:24:05,142
Two black kids are found
with the victim's possessions.
475
00:24:05,144 --> 00:24:07,144
The other eyewitness
puts Scalisi there,
476
00:24:07,146 --> 00:24:10,080
but they only time they saw him
was when he was with Halsey,
477
00:24:10,082 --> 00:24:11,482
he was perfectly fine,
478
00:24:11,484 --> 00:24:13,918
so why does Eddie want to plea
his client?
479
00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:16,887
Judicial calendar
doesn't publish until next week.
480
00:24:16,889 --> 00:24:19,156
Scalisi draws Robards
or Kapstein...
481
00:24:19,158 --> 00:24:21,025
He gets 15 to life.
482
00:24:21,027 --> 00:24:23,894
He draws Rosen or Gonzales,
he gets an apology.
483
00:24:23,896 --> 00:24:26,964
So what do 99 defense lawyers
out of 100 do?
484
00:24:26,966 --> 00:24:28,532
Wait for the calendar
to come out.
485
00:24:28,534 --> 00:24:32,036
And you only make five percent
of what Eddie makes.
486
00:24:32,038 --> 00:24:35,873
What did Greevey mean about
Deputy Commander Jefferson?
487
00:24:35,875 --> 00:24:38,008
Jefferson and I don't dance.
488
00:24:38,010 --> 00:24:39,577
The guy's a hero.
489
00:24:39,579 --> 00:24:41,979
He's a lying,
two-faced bastard.
490
00:24:41,981 --> 00:24:45,483
Wait a minute, I grew up
around the corner from him.
491
00:24:45,485 --> 00:24:46,917
He coached
my little league team.
492
00:24:46,919 --> 00:24:48,986
I wouldn't even be a lawyer
if it wasn't for him.
493
00:24:48,988 --> 00:24:51,522
I'm sure his dog
loves him, too.
494
00:24:51,524 --> 00:24:52,990
You know how many black kids
look up to him.
495
00:24:52,992 --> 00:24:56,193
He's one of the highest
ranking black cops ever.
496
00:24:56,195 --> 00:24:58,229
If he's wrong, he's wrong.
497
00:24:58,231 --> 00:25:00,931
If he's so wrong,
how come nobody knows it?
498
00:25:00,933 --> 00:25:02,199
I know it.
499
00:25:02,201 --> 00:25:05,269
Come on,
let's beat the traffic.
500
00:25:10,209 --> 00:25:13,210
STONE:
I used to hear things
about Halsey along time ago,
501
00:25:13,212 --> 00:25:16,213
but he's had a good reputation
the last ten years.
502
00:25:16,215 --> 00:25:18,516
Funny thing about reputations...
503
00:25:18,518 --> 00:25:20,084
Now, don't start
on that, Paul.
504
00:25:20,086 --> 00:25:21,285
I just think...
You're not thinking.
505
00:25:21,287 --> 00:25:23,020
If Jefferson was white,
506
00:25:23,022 --> 00:25:25,122
you wouldn't doubt
a word I'm saying.
507
00:25:25,123 --> 00:25:27,223
Only reason he's still got
a badge is because he's black.
508
00:25:27,226 --> 00:25:31,195
Really? Why don't you just
tell me what the hell he did?
509
00:25:31,197 --> 00:25:33,063
He perjured himself
as a captain,
510
00:25:33,065 --> 00:25:34,565
changed his
testimony on me.
511
00:25:34,567 --> 00:25:37,167
Somebody bought him,
that's one.
512
00:25:37,169 --> 00:25:41,005
Another time, he doctored
evidence in a numbers case.
513
00:25:41,007 --> 00:25:43,107
I'm not going to do this, Paul.
514
00:25:43,109 --> 00:25:45,175
You're either on my team
or Jefferson's.
515
00:25:51,150 --> 00:25:53,250
... and since he never
discussed business with me,
516
00:25:53,252 --> 00:25:56,120
I had no idea he was involved
in illegal activities.
517
00:25:56,122 --> 00:25:58,022
We just had dinner
518
00:25:58,024 --> 00:26:00,257
with Deputy Police
Commander Jefferson
519
00:26:00,259 --> 00:26:02,126
and his wife,
for God's sake.
520
00:26:02,128 --> 00:26:04,194
Mom?
521
00:26:04,196 --> 00:26:06,163
I'm going to head on
over to Gran's.
522
00:26:06,165 --> 00:26:08,198
She's still a little shaky.
523
00:26:08,200 --> 00:26:10,601
I'll be back in an hour.
Okay, sweetie.
524
00:26:17,076 --> 00:26:20,077
Kenneth was going to Annapolis,
525
00:26:20,079 --> 00:26:23,113
but with what's
going to come out,
526
00:26:23,115 --> 00:26:26,283
he'll never be able to get
a congressional appointment.
527
00:26:26,285 --> 00:26:28,953
Mr. Halsey
never wanted Mrs. Halsey
528
00:26:28,955 --> 00:26:31,322
to be burdened with unnecessary
business details.
529
00:26:31,324 --> 00:26:34,291
Is there anything else
you'd like to know?
530
00:26:34,293 --> 00:26:35,659
Her coat size.
531
00:26:39,765 --> 00:26:43,233
12... I wear a 12.
532
00:26:43,235 --> 00:26:45,202
Thank you, Mrs. Halsey--
one more thing.
533
00:26:45,204 --> 00:26:47,938
Did you ever hear of somebody
called Anthony Scalisi?
534
00:26:47,940 --> 00:26:49,940
No, I don't recall that name.
Why?
535
00:26:49,942 --> 00:26:52,209
He was a man we suspect
attacked your husband.
536
00:26:52,211 --> 00:26:55,179
A black boy named Scalisi?
537
00:26:55,181 --> 00:26:58,182
Two blacks in custody confessed
to robbing your husband
538
00:26:58,184 --> 00:27:00,084
but Scalisi was the one
who slashed him.
539
00:27:00,086 --> 00:27:02,086
Do you have any idea
why somebody might want
540
00:27:02,088 --> 00:27:03,354
to attack Mr. Halsey?
541
00:27:03,356 --> 00:27:05,055
Mrs. Halsey already told you
542
00:27:05,057 --> 00:27:06,223
she didn't know Tony Scalisi,
all right?
543
00:27:06,225 --> 00:27:08,209
Mr. Wentzel.
544
00:27:08,210 --> 00:27:10,194
We won't take up any more
of Mrs. Halsey's time,
545
00:27:10,196 --> 00:27:11,629
but why don't you let us
546
00:27:11,631 --> 00:27:14,331
buy you a cup
of coffee?
547
00:27:14,333 --> 00:27:16,200
STONE:
Mrs. Halsey
wears a 12.
548
00:27:16,202 --> 00:27:18,102
The coat is an eight.
549
00:27:18,104 --> 00:27:19,203
Who is she,
Mr. Wentzel?
550
00:27:19,205 --> 00:27:20,270
You can't be serious.
551
00:27:20,272 --> 00:27:22,106
I can't tell...
552
00:27:22,108 --> 00:27:24,174
You're gonna make
me very angry if you
finish that sentence.
553
00:27:24,176 --> 00:27:25,275
Hey, what is this?
554
00:27:25,277 --> 00:27:26,710
We're talking privacy here.
555
00:27:26,712 --> 00:27:28,112
No, we're talking
obstruction here.
556
00:27:28,114 --> 00:27:29,213
That's what
we're talking.
557
00:27:29,215 --> 00:27:30,347
Now, wait
just a damn second...
558
00:27:30,349 --> 00:27:32,316
No, you wait--
this case stinks.
559
00:27:32,318 --> 00:27:34,652
Your friend was a bagman
560
00:27:34,654 --> 00:27:36,120
long before he
was a councilman,
561
00:27:36,122 --> 00:27:38,205
and old habits die hard.
562
00:27:38,206 --> 00:27:40,289
Now, I'm going to start
sending out subpoenas.
563
00:27:40,292 --> 00:27:42,159
I find out that you
564
00:27:42,161 --> 00:27:45,195
had any knowledge
of person or persons
565
00:27:45,197 --> 00:27:47,398
who were involved
with your friend
in illegal activity,
566
00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:49,299
I'll have your butt.
567
00:27:52,238 --> 00:27:55,339
Now, what's her
name, Mr. Wentzel?
568
00:28:00,246 --> 00:28:01,845
Alicia Heslin?
569
00:28:01,847 --> 00:28:05,049
Um... she's in sweaters.
570
00:28:10,256 --> 00:28:11,689
Miss Heslin?
571
00:28:11,691 --> 00:28:14,024
Yes?
572
00:28:14,026 --> 00:28:15,359
My name's Paul Robinette.
573
00:28:15,361 --> 00:28:17,461
I'm from the district
attorney's office.
574
00:28:17,463 --> 00:28:18,829
Yes?
575
00:28:18,831 --> 00:28:21,131
I'd like to ask you
a few questions.
576
00:28:21,133 --> 00:28:22,232
About what?
577
00:28:22,234 --> 00:28:24,068
Charles Halsey.
578
00:28:27,139 --> 00:28:29,773
I've been expecting you.
579
00:28:34,346 --> 00:28:37,214
STONE:
I like the story you wrote
on Congressman Macgruder.
580
00:28:37,216 --> 00:28:40,184
So, what do you want?
581
00:28:40,186 --> 00:28:44,154
Everything you got
on Charles Halsey.
582
00:28:46,125 --> 00:28:49,126
How much do you know
about parking meters?
583
00:28:49,128 --> 00:28:51,145
They all run fast.
584
00:28:51,146 --> 00:28:53,163
And a lot of people who get
tickets don't pay them.
585
00:28:53,165 --> 00:28:56,467
Collecting all that money
for all those unpaid tickets
586
00:28:56,469 --> 00:28:58,235
is a very big headache
587
00:28:58,237 --> 00:29:00,738
for the head of the parking
violations bureau.
588
00:29:00,740 --> 00:29:02,506
He has to get
a little outside help.
589
00:29:02,508 --> 00:29:05,175
That means a big contract.
Ah.
590
00:29:05,177 --> 00:29:08,479
Very big,
very lucrative contract.
591
00:29:08,481 --> 00:29:10,948
Who has it?
592
00:29:10,949 --> 00:29:13,416
Interesting little company
called Carnegie Collections.
593
00:29:13,419 --> 00:29:18,288
She's got champagne tastes--
Cartier watch, alligator shoes.
594
00:29:18,290 --> 00:29:19,857
When she first heard about it,
595
00:29:19,859 --> 00:29:21,792
she thought he might have been
trying to commit suicide.
596
00:29:21,794 --> 00:29:22,893
Why? Was he depressed?
597
00:29:22,895 --> 00:29:24,328
He'd been subpoenaed--
598
00:29:24,330 --> 00:29:27,164
federal grand jury
on municipal corruption.
599
00:29:27,166 --> 00:29:28,899
Oh, and how's this grab you.
600
00:29:28,901 --> 00:29:31,301
Her apartment lease is made out
to Carnegie Collections.
601
00:29:31,303 --> 00:29:33,170
She wear a size eight coat?
602
00:29:33,172 --> 00:29:34,404
Right off the rack.
603
00:29:34,406 --> 00:29:35,806
He tell her names?
604
00:29:35,808 --> 00:29:37,341
Last month,
it was all he talked about.
605
00:29:37,343 --> 00:29:39,910
Told her who had done what to
whom and how they had done it.
606
00:29:39,912 --> 00:29:41,278
Will she testify?
607
00:29:41,280 --> 00:29:43,180
Most of it's
unusable anyway.
608
00:29:43,182 --> 00:29:46,884
"Chuck told me that Scalisi told
him that Van Damme told him,"
609
00:29:46,886 --> 00:29:49,020
that kind of thing.
610
00:29:49,021 --> 00:29:51,155
She did say he couldn't figure
out how this was happening,
611
00:29:51,157 --> 00:29:55,225
since he had a deputy
police commander in his pocket.
612
00:29:55,227 --> 00:29:57,361
JEFFERSON:
I can tell you now
that six days
613
00:29:57,363 --> 00:29:59,429
of jury deliberation
did have me worried.
614
00:29:59,431 --> 00:30:01,365
REPORTER:
Well, you must be very pleased
615
00:30:01,367 --> 00:30:02,566
with the verdict,
Deputy Commander.
616
00:30:02,568 --> 00:30:04,168
I am, Chuck, I truly am.
617
00:30:04,170 --> 00:30:06,403
Our high schools
must be protected
618
00:30:06,405 --> 00:30:09,239
from the drug-dealing scum
trying to poison our children.
619
00:30:09,241 --> 00:30:10,440
Mr. Jefferson.
620
00:30:10,442 --> 00:30:12,176
Deputy Commander,
can I ask you this?
621
00:30:12,178 --> 00:30:14,244
Do you feel that the
impact of this verdict
622
00:30:14,246 --> 00:30:15,913
will be felt
on the streets
of New York?
623
00:30:19,285 --> 00:30:21,285
How deep does this go?
624
00:30:21,287 --> 00:30:24,354
It's not confined to
the parking violations bureau,
625
00:30:24,356 --> 00:30:26,290
that's for sure.
Why not?
626
00:30:26,292 --> 00:30:28,892
Halsey's been the bagman
for 20 years
627
00:30:28,894 --> 00:30:30,294
Scalisi's mobbed up,
628
00:30:30,296 --> 00:30:31,929
and according to
a reporter I know,
629
00:30:31,931 --> 00:30:33,564
several other councilmen
and politicians
630
00:30:33,566 --> 00:30:35,933
are stockholders
in Carnegie Collection,
631
00:30:35,935 --> 00:30:37,968
as well as the deputy
police commander,
632
00:30:37,970 --> 00:30:40,270
one William Jefferson.
633
00:30:40,272 --> 00:30:41,722
Jefferson?
Is this personal?
634
00:30:41,723 --> 00:30:43,173
Is that why you
want to bring the feds in?
635
00:30:43,175 --> 00:30:45,209
I'd love
to nail the bastard,
636
00:30:45,211 --> 00:30:46,410
but with him involved,
637
00:30:46,412 --> 00:30:48,579
we get one surveillance
leak, we're dead.
638
00:30:48,581 --> 00:30:50,414
We're secure with
the bureau doing it.
639
00:30:50,416 --> 00:30:53,450
Let the feds have the ink
on municipal corruption.
640
00:30:53,452 --> 00:30:54,852
They may even help me
641
00:30:54,854 --> 00:30:58,255
get a conspiracy to
murder on these bozos.
642
00:30:58,257 --> 00:31:00,224
( sighs )
643
00:31:00,225 --> 00:31:02,192
You never know whose pants
are going to get dropped
644
00:31:02,194 --> 00:31:03,627
in a corruption scandal.
645
00:31:03,629 --> 00:31:05,028
Hey, this started out
as a mugging.
646
00:31:05,030 --> 00:31:06,897
I'll back you.
647
00:31:06,899 --> 00:31:09,900
But don't bring me any names
unless they're dead-bang guilty.
648
00:31:09,902 --> 00:31:12,436
I want a smoking gun
I want it in somebody's hand.
649
00:31:12,438 --> 00:31:13,904
Are you telling
me tape?
650
00:31:13,906 --> 00:31:15,038
Tape would be a start.
651
00:31:15,040 --> 00:31:16,907
Can I offer
Scalisi immunity?
652
00:31:16,909 --> 00:31:20,577
Nope. It would look like he's
naming people to save himself.
653
00:31:20,579 --> 00:31:23,046
I wouldn't want you to go out
on a limb here, Alfred.
654
00:31:23,048 --> 00:31:25,382
That's not what I get
the big bucks for.
655
00:31:25,384 --> 00:31:27,317
( buzzer sounding )
656
00:31:27,319 --> 00:31:28,585
Yes?
657
00:31:28,587 --> 00:31:30,921
WOMAN:
Mr. Stone has an urgent call.
658
00:31:30,923 --> 00:31:32,589
A lawyer named Cosmatos.
659
00:31:32,591 --> 00:31:34,591
Somebody wants to make a deal.
660
00:31:36,662 --> 00:31:39,263
Cosmatos and Scalisi
are in your office.
661
00:31:39,265 --> 00:31:41,265
Call Judge Ichaso.
662
00:31:41,267 --> 00:31:43,100
Get warrants
for Halsey, Scalisi,
663
00:31:43,101 --> 00:31:44,934
Jefferson's phone records,
and talk to Halsey's doctor.
664
00:31:44,937 --> 00:31:46,470
See when we can
interrogate him.
665
00:31:46,472 --> 00:31:47,938
COSMATOS:
So we steadfastly maintain
666
00:31:47,940 --> 00:31:49,473
that the slashing was done
667
00:31:49,475 --> 00:31:51,608
by the black youths
seen fleeing the scene.
668
00:31:51,610 --> 00:31:54,344
We all know you never know
what will happen with a jury,
669
00:31:54,346 --> 00:31:55,545
so we would be willing
to negotiate
670
00:31:55,547 --> 00:31:57,014
some sort of an agreement.
671
00:31:57,016 --> 00:31:59,082
Don't do me any favors.
672
00:31:59,084 --> 00:32:01,251
I'm more than willing
to let the people decide.
673
00:32:01,253 --> 00:32:04,521
Bottom line: what do you want?
674
00:32:04,523 --> 00:32:06,957
Who paid you to do Halsey?
675
00:32:06,959 --> 00:32:08,692
Look, you want
to talk city corruption?
676
00:32:08,694 --> 00:32:11,028
No deal without the names.
677
00:32:12,364 --> 00:32:13,563
Pass.
678
00:32:16,368 --> 00:32:18,101
STONE:
What's up?
679
00:32:18,103 --> 00:32:19,636
Hospital just called.
680
00:32:19,638 --> 00:32:23,040
Charles Halsey
died half an hour ago.
681
00:32:28,981 --> 00:32:32,049
We'll get back to you.
682
00:32:32,051 --> 00:32:34,017
I haven't even made
an offer.
683
00:32:34,019 --> 00:32:37,254
Trust me, you wouldn't like
the counter.
684
00:32:37,256 --> 00:32:40,090
I can tell
you things.
685
00:32:40,092 --> 00:32:42,192
You going to tell me
about parking tickets?
686
00:32:42,194 --> 00:32:43,877
Yours is already punched.
687
00:32:43,878 --> 00:32:45,561
We know all about
Carnegie Collections.
688
00:32:47,266 --> 00:32:48,565
I got a lot of names.
689
00:32:48,567 --> 00:32:52,035
I'll see you in court.
690
00:33:00,145 --> 00:33:02,245
I'm not talking
G-4s here.
691
00:33:02,247 --> 00:33:04,047
These are your basic
elected officials
692
00:33:04,049 --> 00:33:07,250
and a deputy
police commander.
693
00:33:08,654 --> 00:33:12,189
Don't have him
make me call security.
694
00:33:12,191 --> 00:33:13,590
Come on, Tony.
695
00:33:13,592 --> 00:33:15,325
There is no way
696
00:33:15,327 --> 00:33:18,595
that I am going down
alone behind this.
697
00:33:18,597 --> 00:33:20,464
Now, what do you want?
698
00:33:20,466 --> 00:33:22,032
Want? I want it all.
699
00:33:22,034 --> 00:33:23,333
You testify--
give names, dates, amounts.
700
00:33:23,335 --> 00:33:26,336
You flush all those
true-blue public officials.
701
00:33:26,338 --> 00:33:28,205
And that gets me a walk?
702
00:33:28,207 --> 00:33:31,208
The only way you walk is you say
who gave the order.
703
00:33:36,148 --> 00:33:38,648
You know
I can't do that.
704
00:33:38,650 --> 00:33:42,085
No Masucci, no free lunch.
705
00:33:42,087 --> 00:33:43,553
But the public officials
could lead to a plea
706
00:33:43,555 --> 00:33:45,555
of let's say... assault?
707
00:33:45,557 --> 00:33:49,059
Let's say
voluntary manslaughter.
708
00:33:49,061 --> 00:33:50,360
Let's say involuntary.
709
00:33:50,362 --> 00:33:51,695
Then he wears a wire.
710
00:33:51,697 --> 00:33:53,363
SCALISI:
What, are you crazy?
711
00:33:53,365 --> 00:33:55,165
They know I've been popped;
they'll smell it.
712
00:33:55,167 --> 00:33:56,700
You let me worry about that.
713
00:33:58,604 --> 00:34:00,604
What kind
of sentencing recommendation?
714
00:34:00,606 --> 00:34:03,507
Depends on what's on the tape.
715
00:34:05,477 --> 00:34:07,644
Tick-tock, gentlemen.
716
00:34:19,358 --> 00:34:20,690
Write it up.
717
00:34:24,229 --> 00:34:27,731
The guy had arteries
the diameter of capillaries.
718
00:34:27,733 --> 00:34:30,100
So with the traumatic
loss of six units of blood
719
00:34:30,102 --> 00:34:31,401
there was a
causative connection
720
00:34:31,403 --> 00:34:33,303
between the assault
and the coronary?
721
00:34:33,305 --> 00:34:35,172
Oh, come on, guys,
you don't want to ask me that--
722
00:34:35,174 --> 00:34:36,573
"causative connection"?
723
00:34:36,575 --> 00:34:38,141
Whoa, whoa, whoa,
wait a minute.
724
00:34:38,143 --> 00:34:39,676
Mr. Halsey
had a regular physician,
725
00:34:39,678 --> 00:34:41,511
didn't he, Dr. Goldberg?
Yes, he did.
726
00:34:41,513 --> 00:34:43,680
And he described Halsey as being
in good health.
Uh-huh.
727
00:34:43,682 --> 00:34:45,282
He was alive a week ago,
correct?
728
00:34:45,284 --> 00:34:46,349
Far as I could tell.
729
00:34:46,351 --> 00:34:48,018
And then, somebody
cut his throat
730
00:34:48,019 --> 00:34:49,686
with a straight razor,
severing an artery
in his vocal cords.
731
00:34:49,688 --> 00:34:52,322
As well as other
connective tissue.
732
00:34:52,324 --> 00:34:54,324
And now,
Mr. Halsey is dead?
733
00:34:54,326 --> 00:34:55,625
Yes, that's correct.
734
00:34:55,627 --> 00:34:58,261
Thank you, Dr. Goldberg.
735
00:35:01,633 --> 00:35:05,368
It's neat, it's clean, it's
inter-agency cooperation.
736
00:35:05,370 --> 00:35:07,504
and we may get a murder-
for-hire conspiracy.
737
00:35:07,506 --> 00:35:09,306
while you get another
nail for your RICO...
738
00:35:09,308 --> 00:35:11,741
How did I get so lucky?
739
00:35:11,743 --> 00:35:13,176
A high-level cop is involved.
740
00:35:13,178 --> 00:35:14,578
I can't this
through the P.D.
741
00:35:14,580 --> 00:35:16,646
The D.A. know about this?
742
00:35:16,648 --> 00:35:18,748
It has his
full approval.
743
00:35:18,750 --> 00:35:20,650
We go to trial first.
744
00:35:20,652 --> 00:35:22,152
You want to win your RICO?
745
00:35:22,154 --> 00:35:23,653
You go in with
one of the five counts
746
00:35:23,655 --> 00:35:25,655
having already been proven
in state court.
747
00:35:30,596 --> 00:35:31,761
What do you need?
748
00:35:31,763 --> 00:35:34,197
An FBI surveillance team.
749
00:35:36,702 --> 00:35:39,536
Get me Jackson at the bureau.
750
00:35:39,538 --> 00:35:41,404
All right,
let me see if I've got this.
751
00:35:41,406 --> 00:35:43,540
Halsey's been called
before the grand jury.
752
00:35:43,542 --> 00:35:45,675
Big names figure
he's going to name them,
753
00:35:45,677 --> 00:35:46,710
give the contract
to Scalisi.
754
00:35:46,712 --> 00:35:48,578
But Scalisi screwed up.
755
00:35:48,580 --> 00:35:49,679
The black kids come along.
756
00:35:49,681 --> 00:35:51,581
We got lucky; they
came up with I.D.
757
00:35:51,583 --> 00:35:53,216
So why are you kicking?
758
00:35:53,218 --> 00:35:54,584
I told you,
it's a weak case.
759
00:35:54,586 --> 00:35:56,253
It's all circumstantial,
760
00:35:56,255 --> 00:35:58,388
and no choirboys
as witnesses for
the prosecution.
761
00:35:58,390 --> 00:36:00,624
Spare me the waltz,
all right?
762
00:36:00,626 --> 00:36:03,393
This is all off the record
until after an indictment.
763
00:36:03,395 --> 00:36:05,762
But I get an exclusive
on the arrest.
764
00:36:05,764 --> 00:36:07,664
I can't promise
you that.
765
00:36:07,666 --> 00:36:09,499
Sure you can.
766
00:36:09,501 --> 00:36:11,234
You get an exclusive
767
00:36:11,236 --> 00:36:14,771
on the highest-ranking
defendant's arrest site.
768
00:36:14,773 --> 00:36:17,240
Will you run it?
769
00:36:19,711 --> 00:36:22,746
"Assistant District Attorney
Benjamin Stone stated
770
00:36:22,748 --> 00:36:26,449
"that his office did not feel
that Scalisi's causative role
771
00:36:26,451 --> 00:36:28,251
"in Halsey's death
could be proven
772
00:36:28,253 --> 00:36:30,353
beyond a reasonable doubt."
773
00:36:30,355 --> 00:36:32,589
a tad doctrinaire,
but not too bad.
774
00:36:32,591 --> 00:36:34,724
Scalisi comes out
smelling like a rose.
775
00:36:34,726 --> 00:36:37,561
So long as they buy
he held his mud.
776
00:36:37,563 --> 00:36:40,463
Jefferson called me
for a status report.
777
00:36:40,465 --> 00:36:42,599
You told him about
this case?
778
00:36:42,601 --> 00:36:44,234
I had to--
he would have been suspicious
779
00:36:44,236 --> 00:36:46,336
if I didn't talk to him.
780
00:36:46,338 --> 00:36:49,472
I gave him the "we had
to let Scalisi walk" rap.
781
00:36:49,474 --> 00:36:50,740
How did he take it?
782
00:36:50,742 --> 00:36:52,742
He was absolutely furious.
783
00:36:52,744 --> 00:36:55,745
I'm sure it was an
Oscar performance.
784
00:36:55,747 --> 00:36:57,781
You're certain
he's guilty, right?
785
00:36:57,783 --> 00:37:01,418
I'm not certain,
I'm positive!
786
00:37:01,420 --> 00:37:03,787
Now, you take her
through her testimony?
787
00:37:03,789 --> 00:37:05,422
She's still upset
788
00:37:05,424 --> 00:37:06,790
about not having
a lawyer with her.
789
00:37:06,792 --> 00:37:08,858
Did you explain to her
how the grand jury works?
790
00:37:08,860 --> 00:37:10,627
No lawyer unless
you're a defendant
791
00:37:10,629 --> 00:37:12,562
and we need her testimony
to get a wiretap?
792
00:37:12,564 --> 00:37:14,464
She understands.
793
00:37:14,465 --> 00:37:16,365
She's not happy about
it, but she gets it.
All right.
794
00:37:19,738 --> 00:37:22,405
STONE:
And did Charles Halsey
tell you of other officials
795
00:37:22,407 --> 00:37:24,541
who were involved in
this conspiracy to award
796
00:37:24,543 --> 00:37:27,477
the traffic violation bureau's
collection contract
797
00:37:27,479 --> 00:37:30,780
to Carnegie Collections?
798
00:37:30,782 --> 00:37:32,782
HESLIN:
Well, he mentioned people
that I knew
799
00:37:32,784 --> 00:37:34,784
as well as people
that I had never heard of.
800
00:37:34,786 --> 00:37:36,720
Which people
that you knew personally?
801
00:37:36,722 --> 00:37:40,523
Anthony Scalisi
and William Jefferson.
802
00:37:40,525 --> 00:37:43,693
And did he tell you
the amount of money involved?
803
00:37:43,695 --> 00:37:45,545
He said
804
00:37:45,546 --> 00:37:47,396
that there was over $1 million
available
805
00:37:47,399 --> 00:37:49,799
to pay off city officials
per year.
806
00:37:49,801 --> 00:37:53,336
( elevator bell dings )
807
00:37:53,338 --> 00:37:54,738
See who your
client drew?
808
00:37:54,740 --> 00:37:56,740
No, I haven't seen
the calendar.
809
00:37:56,742 --> 00:37:58,541
"Let 'Em Walk" Falk.
810
00:37:58,543 --> 00:38:00,677
Hey, I didn't want him to plead;
it was his own decision.
811
00:38:00,679 --> 00:38:02,412
Anyway,
he got the call.
812
00:38:02,414 --> 00:38:03,680
From who?
813
00:38:03,682 --> 00:38:05,515
Scalisi wants it
to be a surprise.
814
00:38:05,517 --> 00:38:07,684
This isn't a
parlor game, Eddie.
815
00:38:07,686 --> 00:38:09,386
He's worried somebody
might not show up,
816
00:38:09,388 --> 00:38:10,420
and you'll think
he's lying.
817
00:38:10,422 --> 00:38:12,555
Where's the meet?
818
00:38:12,557 --> 00:38:13,690
Cafe Bruxelles.
819
00:38:13,692 --> 00:38:14,691
When?
820
00:38:14,693 --> 00:38:17,427
Tomorrow night, 8:00.
821
00:38:17,429 --> 00:38:20,430
Bring him to the bureau
at 6:00.
822
00:38:20,432 --> 00:38:22,565
You know who's coming?
823
00:38:22,567 --> 00:38:23,767
Mm-hmm.
824
00:38:25,704 --> 00:38:27,437
Bad?
825
00:38:27,439 --> 00:38:31,508
I hope you don't have
any political aspirations.
826
00:38:33,979 --> 00:38:36,646
Just make sure
he's on time.
827
00:38:41,453 --> 00:38:43,586
I'll start with you
taking them through the arrest
828
00:38:43,588 --> 00:38:44,821
of Lewis and Jackson.
829
00:38:44,823 --> 00:38:46,589
Let Max do Scalisi.
830
00:38:46,591 --> 00:38:48,725
How did you let
those kids plead?
831
00:38:48,727 --> 00:38:50,960
Possession of stolen
property, six months.
832
00:38:50,962 --> 00:38:53,430
You going to be able
to nail Jefferson
833
00:38:53,432 --> 00:38:54,631
for anything worse?
834
00:38:54,633 --> 00:38:57,734
STONE:
Looks like it.
835
00:38:57,736 --> 00:39:00,737
What goes around
comes around.
836
00:39:00,739 --> 00:39:03,473
If these guys smell
anything hinky, they're
going to clam up.
837
00:39:03,475 --> 00:39:04,774
So just be cool--
you beat the system.
838
00:39:04,776 --> 00:39:06,776
You told the cops
to shine it on.
839
00:39:06,778 --> 00:39:09,446
McCORMACK:
Maybe you want to tell us
who's coming to this party now?
840
00:39:09,448 --> 00:39:12,615
Hey, didn't anybody
tell him the deal?
841
00:39:12,617 --> 00:39:14,384
Whoever comes, comes.
842
00:39:14,386 --> 00:39:15,752
These guys are going
to hang themselves.
843
00:39:15,754 --> 00:39:17,270
I ain't ratting on them.
844
00:39:17,271 --> 00:39:18,787
But I'll tell you who
ain't coming: Masucci.
845
00:39:18,790 --> 00:39:20,924
There is no way
I give up my boss.
846
00:39:20,926 --> 00:39:22,692
Hold your water, Tony.
847
00:39:22,694 --> 00:39:24,894
We wouldn't want you
to short yourself out.
848
00:39:24,896 --> 00:39:27,030
Just make sure one
of the principals
849
00:39:27,032 --> 00:39:29,833
implicates himself.
Right, right, right.
850
00:39:36,541 --> 00:39:38,792
STONE:
We've gone through
their phone records.
851
00:39:38,793 --> 00:39:41,044
Halsey's talking to Scalisi and
Jefferson 10-15 times a week.
852
00:39:41,046 --> 00:39:44,714
Conti even called Jefferson
when he was on a police junket
853
00:39:44,716 --> 00:39:45,915
to Tokyo.
McCORMACK:
Whoa, whoa.
854
00:39:45,917 --> 00:39:48,518
Scalisi and Halsey
I understand,
855
00:39:48,520 --> 00:39:49,786
but why Jefferson?
856
00:39:49,788 --> 00:39:51,921
He's a deputy commander
and police handle traffic,
857
00:39:51,923 --> 00:39:53,623
which includes parking.
ROBINETTE:
Look at that.
858
00:39:53,625 --> 00:39:55,759
Do you believe these guys?
859
00:39:55,761 --> 00:39:58,595
McCORMACK:
Damn! Limo's got a New York City
shield on the bumper.
860
00:40:07,005 --> 00:40:09,506
STONE:
Bingo.
861
00:40:09,508 --> 00:40:10,940
McCORMACK:
Who is it?
862
00:40:10,942 --> 00:40:13,476
STONE:
Borough President Conti's
in front,
863
00:40:13,478 --> 00:40:15,779
that guy in the middle
is Jefferson,
864
00:40:15,781 --> 00:40:18,715
and the one in the blazer
is Councilman Van Damme.
865
00:40:18,717 --> 00:40:21,851
( whistling )
Ain't politics great?
866
00:40:28,560 --> 00:40:29,959
CONTI ( over speaker ):
I was worried
it would come up
867
00:40:29,961 --> 00:40:33,596
at the mayor's press
conference last week.
868
00:40:33,598 --> 00:40:37,967
JEFFERSON:
The commissioner was
asking about it every day.
869
00:40:37,969 --> 00:40:39,869
This has been
a rough few weeks
870
00:40:39,871 --> 00:40:42,105
on all of us,
and the...
871
00:40:42,107 --> 00:40:45,909
The DA's decision
is extremely gratifying.
872
00:40:45,911 --> 00:40:49,646
I'd like to propose
a toast.
873
00:40:49,648 --> 00:40:50,847
To Tony Scalisi.
874
00:40:50,849 --> 00:40:52,365
JEFFERSON:
Here, here.
875
00:40:52,366 --> 00:40:53,882
CONTI:
Who knows how to be
a stand-up guy.
876
00:40:53,885 --> 00:40:55,852
That's about as damning
as a rotary club meeting.
877
00:40:55,854 --> 00:40:58,855
Shh, shh.
878
00:40:58,857 --> 00:41:03,793
Tony... we don't
want you to think
879
00:41:03,795 --> 00:41:07,664
that we're not very grateful
for everything you've done.
880
00:41:07,666 --> 00:41:09,866
SCALISI:
Hey, what are friends for?
881
00:41:09,868 --> 00:41:11,601
VAN DAMME:
Maybe we should get you
882
00:41:11,603 --> 00:41:14,070
to take care of that worm Lasco,
too, huh, Tony.
883
00:41:14,072 --> 00:41:15,672
Yeah, half the politicians.
AGENT:
God almighty...
884
00:41:15,674 --> 00:41:17,507
AGENT 2:
What's the problem?
It's Greco.
885
00:41:17,509 --> 00:41:18,608
Who is he?
886
00:41:18,610 --> 00:41:19,676
McCORMACK:
One of Masucci's mechanics.
887
00:41:19,678 --> 00:41:21,656
He usually eats in the bar.
888
00:41:21,657 --> 00:41:23,635
What do you want to do?
STONE:
Let it play.
889
00:41:23,636 --> 00:41:25,614
VAN DAMME:
...have to send you right
to the hospital to do some...
890
00:41:25,617 --> 00:41:27,267
"additional surgery."
891
00:41:27,268 --> 00:41:28,918
I thought the jerk
was never going to croak.
892
00:41:28,920 --> 00:41:30,019
( laughter )
893
00:41:30,021 --> 00:41:31,821
JEFFERSON:
These things take time.
894
00:41:31,823 --> 00:41:34,157
VAN DAMME:
Tony, you know if there's
ever anything you need
895
00:41:34,159 --> 00:41:36,860
from us...
Come on.
896
00:41:36,862 --> 00:41:38,127
He's probably just going in
for dinner...
897
00:41:38,129 --> 00:41:39,896
Wait, he's going
to incriminate himself.
898
00:41:39,898 --> 00:41:42,065
I want you
to have this.
899
00:41:46,171 --> 00:41:49,739
VAN DAMME:
It's nice to know we're all
in the same boat together.
900
00:41:49,741 --> 00:41:51,774
So who contributed?
901
00:41:51,776 --> 00:41:54,043
You really want to know?
902
00:41:54,045 --> 00:41:55,778
Absolutely.
903
00:41:55,780 --> 00:41:59,716
Me, Jefferson,
Van Damme.
904
00:41:59,718 --> 00:42:00,783
That's it--
we got it.
905
00:42:00,785 --> 00:42:01,951
Tell the agents
in the restaurant.
906
00:42:01,953 --> 00:42:03,887
They're not
wearing radios.
What?!
907
00:42:03,889 --> 00:42:05,955
You can't hide the wires.
This guy's not going
to the bar.
908
00:42:05,957 --> 00:42:07,657
Oh, my God!
909
00:42:14,165 --> 00:42:16,599
( car horn honking )
910
00:42:17,802 --> 00:42:19,702
( gunshot )
911
00:42:19,704 --> 00:42:20,770
( screaming )
912
00:42:20,772 --> 00:42:22,705
Freeze, Greco!
913
00:42:22,707 --> 00:42:24,040
( gunfire )
914
00:42:39,925 --> 00:42:41,824
Don't say anything.
915
00:42:41,826 --> 00:42:43,059
Not a word!
916
00:42:43,061 --> 00:42:44,861
Wait for your lawyer.
917
00:42:54,773 --> 00:42:57,740
STONE:
Ladies and gentlemen
of the jury,
918
00:42:57,742 --> 00:42:59,809
in the coming weeks,
919
00:42:59,811 --> 00:43:02,178
you will hear
how an investigation
920
00:43:02,180 --> 00:43:05,682
of what seemed to be
a common mugging
921
00:43:05,684 --> 00:43:09,018
uncovered a conspiracy
at the highest levels
922
00:43:09,020 --> 00:43:11,020
of city government--
923
00:43:11,022 --> 00:43:15,858
a conspiracy that led
to three violent deaths.
924
00:43:15,860 --> 00:43:18,127
You will learn how these men
925
00:43:18,129 --> 00:43:21,864
driven by
the basest kind of greed
926
00:43:21,866 --> 00:43:23,866
violated their public trust
927
00:43:23,868 --> 00:43:26,970
and conspired
with a member of organized crime
928
00:43:26,972 --> 00:43:29,973
to murder
another public official.
929
00:43:34,145 --> 00:43:35,878
I ask you
930
00:43:35,880 --> 00:43:39,816
to weigh all the evidence
that is presented.
931
00:43:39,818 --> 00:43:41,818
It is my responsibility
932
00:43:41,820 --> 00:43:45,755
to show you their crimes.
933
00:43:45,757 --> 00:43:48,758
It is your responsibility...
934
00:43:48,760 --> 00:43:48,791
...to see
that justice is done.
