1
00:00:01,368 --> 00:00:03,029
In the criminal justice system
2
00:00:03,103 --> 00:00:06,800
the people are represented
by two separate
yet equally important groups,
3
00:00:07,040 --> 00:00:08,871
the police
who investigate crime
4
00:00:08,942 --> 00:00:11,433
and the district attorneys
who prosecute the offenders.
5
00:00:11,778 --> 00:00:13,075
These are their stories.
6
00:00:14,781 --> 00:00:16,646
Hey, we're the
first ones here.
7
00:00:16,783 --> 00:00:19,775
That's because
the ticket counter doesn't
open till 8:30.
8
00:00:19,853 --> 00:00:21,946
Well, at least we won't
have to stand in line.
9
00:00:22,022 --> 00:00:25,014
No, we can stand by ourselves
for an hour and a half.
10
00:00:25,325 --> 00:00:26,690
I need a restroom.
11
00:00:27,160 --> 00:00:28,559
Hey, kids, look.
12
00:00:28,728 --> 00:00:30,958
This is called, uh,
Castle Clinton.
13
00:00:31,064 --> 00:00:32,292
It's an old naval fort.
14
00:00:32,365 --> 00:00:35,630
It's the
President's fort?
No, it's named after, um...
15
00:00:36,469 --> 00:00:38,801
I don't know who.
But not the President.
16
00:00:38,872 --> 00:00:40,100
Oh, there's the restroom.
17
00:00:40,206 --> 00:00:42,265
They should name that
after the President.
18
00:00:48,381 --> 00:00:49,541
It's locked.
19
00:00:49,682 --> 00:00:53,083
Gary, we're goin' back
to the hotel. Shane, come on.
20
00:00:54,220 --> 00:00:56,814
Shane, don't look at her.
No, she's just sleeping.
21
00:00:56,990 --> 00:00:59,220
No, she isn't.
Her head's all messed up.
22
00:01:03,196 --> 00:01:04,254
Oh, my God.
23
00:01:04,397 --> 00:01:07,264
Come on, let's go.
We better get a policeman.
24
00:01:09,669 --> 00:01:12,035
Gimme a big beauty
shot of the gun with the hand.
25
00:01:13,106 --> 00:01:15,267
Is this what I think it is?
Yeah.
26
00:01:15,742 --> 00:01:17,733
One lonely Saturday night
too many.
27
00:01:18,344 --> 00:01:21,211
Slug chipped General Booth
over there and dug
itself into a tree.
28
00:01:21,281 --> 00:01:24,580
No suicide note, no ID.
Any idea how long
she's been here?
29
00:01:24,651 --> 00:01:28,212
Ah, rigor's already set in.
Maybe, uh, six-to-eight hours.
30
00:01:28,455 --> 00:01:31,515
There's not a lot of blood.
Well, it probably soaked
into the ground.
31
00:01:32,292 --> 00:01:34,886
Just for drill,
test her hand
for gunpowder.
32
00:01:35,095 --> 00:01:38,258
I'd hate to think
I got up this early on a
Sunday morning for a suicide.
33
00:01:38,331 --> 00:01:40,925
Sorry. I missed the
"Do Not Disturb" sign
on your pager.
34
00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:42,865
That's okay,
I enjoy the view.
35
00:01:42,936 --> 00:01:44,995
Ellis Island.
Statue of Liberty.
36
00:01:45,405 --> 00:01:48,033
"Huddled masses yearning
to breathe free. "
37
00:01:48,308 --> 00:01:49,400
Or not.
38
00:02:40,460 --> 00:02:42,189
The reason you didn't find
much blood on the ground
39
00:02:42,262 --> 00:02:43,957
is that most of it's
still inside her.
40
00:02:44,130 --> 00:02:46,655
She was already dead
when she was shot.
Suffocated.
41
00:02:47,033 --> 00:02:48,557
With enough force
to break her nose.
42
00:02:49,569 --> 00:02:51,503
There were no signs
of sexual trauma.
43
00:02:51,771 --> 00:02:55,673
Drug panel was positive for
low levels of alcohol and
fluoxetine hydrochloride.
44
00:02:56,075 --> 00:02:57,064
Prozac.
45
00:02:58,178 --> 00:02:59,839
How old? Twenties?
46
00:03:00,713 --> 00:03:03,079
Mid-to-late thirties.
Wow. No kidding?
47
00:03:03,416 --> 00:03:04,405
It's the skin.
48
00:03:04,584 --> 00:03:06,575
I'd kill for skin like that.
Yeah?
49
00:03:06,853 --> 00:03:08,946
You sure you weren't in
Battery Park around midnight?
50
00:03:09,722 --> 00:03:11,656
I was salsa dancing
at the Copa.
51
00:03:12,992 --> 00:03:15,358
And according to her
body temperature,
this lady wasn't outside
52
00:03:15,428 --> 00:03:16,690
more than a couple of hours.
53
00:03:18,598 --> 00:03:22,864
Got a hit on her prints.
Janine McBride, 36.
54
00:03:22,936 --> 00:03:24,460
That lovely lady
has a sheet?
55
00:03:24,537 --> 00:03:26,596
No, she's got a
Federal security clearance.
56
00:03:26,973 --> 00:03:30,465
She was a deputy director with
the Social Security
Administration in Baltimore.
57
00:03:30,543 --> 00:03:33,068
That's a long commute.
She's got an address
down there.
58
00:03:33,179 --> 00:03:35,807
Well, you know the drill.
Give our friends a call.
59
00:03:39,519 --> 00:03:42,249
No boyfriend shirts,
no boyfriend pants.
60
00:03:43,423 --> 00:03:45,254
Does every girl gotta
have a boyfriend?
61
00:03:45,725 --> 00:03:47,056
Murdered ones do.
Significant others is the
62
00:03:47,126 --> 00:03:49,424
number one cause of
death among women.
63
00:03:55,034 --> 00:03:56,331
No party hats.
64
00:03:57,270 --> 00:03:58,703
Where do you keep yours,
Sheppard?
65
00:03:58,771 --> 00:04:01,103
Next to my bed,
in a gumball machine.
66
00:04:02,875 --> 00:04:07,244
Mom and Dad.
Vivian and James McBride.
West 96th St. New York City.
67
00:04:07,614 --> 00:04:09,946
Car key. Beemer.
68
00:04:10,850 --> 00:04:13,819
The Baltimore Police told
us her car has been
missing from her garage
69
00:04:13,886 --> 00:04:14,910
since Saturday night.
70
00:04:16,356 --> 00:04:17,983
We just talked to her
on Thursday.
71
00:04:18,825 --> 00:04:20,952
She would have told us if she
were coming up to visit.
72
00:04:21,928 --> 00:04:22,917
Did she have a boyfriend?
73
00:04:23,896 --> 00:04:25,591
No. I don't think so.
74
00:04:26,099 --> 00:04:27,999
Do you know why
she was on medication?
75
00:04:28,568 --> 00:04:30,695
She had a prescription
for Prozac.
76
00:04:31,137 --> 00:04:32,161
We didn't know.
77
00:04:32,338 --> 00:04:34,169
Well, we knew she was
upset about her job.
78
00:04:34,607 --> 00:04:35,596
Why is that?
79
00:04:35,842 --> 00:04:38,504
Up until a couple of months
ago, she was working for
the White House.
80
00:04:39,245 --> 00:04:41,145
For the Council of
Economic Advisors.
81
00:04:41,381 --> 00:04:44,782
So Baltimore wasn't
exactly a step up.
No.
82
00:04:45,218 --> 00:04:47,778
Did she have
any friends here?
Anyone she would have called?
83
00:04:48,087 --> 00:04:50,453
Ned Burks. She went out
with him for a few years.
84
00:04:50,523 --> 00:04:52,457
She broke up
with him nearly two years ago.
85
00:04:52,525 --> 00:04:55,153
She wouldn't call him.
Why'd you
mention him?
86
00:04:55,528 --> 00:04:59,430
He's called me a few times
in the last month asking about
Janine.
87
00:05:00,933 --> 00:05:03,902
He was always nice to her,
but I don't know.
88
00:05:04,504 --> 00:05:06,631
The last time he called?
A week ago.
89
00:05:07,307 --> 00:05:08,797
He asked me for a
job referral.
90
00:05:10,443 --> 00:05:12,809
He was in Asian hedge funds.
91
00:05:13,913 --> 00:05:15,244
He got clobbered.
92
00:05:16,282 --> 00:05:17,806
It doesn't make sense.
93
00:05:18,518 --> 00:05:21,510
Who would do this to her?
That's what we're
tryin' to find out.
94
00:05:21,988 --> 00:05:23,478
Where were you Saturday night?
95
00:05:24,290 --> 00:05:26,281
I was home. I was on
the phone.
96
00:05:27,093 --> 00:05:29,459
Hong Kong, Manila,
trying to drum up business.
97
00:05:30,330 --> 00:05:32,992
We saw you have a permit
for a handgun. A.357.
98
00:05:33,199 --> 00:05:36,225
Yes. For my country house.
And as of last month,
99
00:05:36,302 --> 00:05:38,327
I don't have the
country house anymore.
100
00:05:38,404 --> 00:05:42,500
Look, I wouldn't hurt Janine.
I cared about her.
101
00:05:42,575 --> 00:05:46,705
So we heard. You've
been calling her folks,
keeping tabs on her...
102
00:05:46,946 --> 00:05:49,278
It's not like that.
Then what is it like?
103
00:05:49,849 --> 00:05:51,339
When Janine and I
were going out,
104
00:05:51,417 --> 00:05:53,578
we had dinner with them
a couple of times a week.
105
00:05:54,287 --> 00:05:56,312
They've always treated
me like family.
106
00:05:56,422 --> 00:05:59,550
And now that things are
a little unsteady for you,
you reached out to them.
107
00:06:00,460 --> 00:06:01,654
Yeah, something like that.
108
00:06:02,061 --> 00:06:03,460
You reach out to Janine?
109
00:06:04,097 --> 00:06:06,122
I called her last month.
She wasn't home.
110
00:06:06,199 --> 00:06:07,996
I didn't have
her work number.
111
00:06:08,067 --> 00:06:09,796
Would've been nice
to get back with her, yeah?
112
00:06:10,703 --> 00:06:12,637
I don't know if that was
in the cards.
113
00:06:12,772 --> 00:06:16,003
Why not?
I asked her a few times
to marry me.
114
00:06:16,876 --> 00:06:19,174
Uh, she never came out
and said no.
115
00:06:19,545 --> 00:06:21,570
I thought there might
still be a chance
116
00:06:21,714 --> 00:06:23,705
to prove to her I could
be everything she wanted.
117
00:06:24,083 --> 00:06:27,143
They got a Beemer.
On Stone St., five blocks
from the park.
118
00:06:27,754 --> 00:06:29,153
We ran her plastic.
119
00:06:29,589 --> 00:06:33,650
She bought gas in Jersey City
just off the Turnpike,
ten-minutes-to-five,
120
00:06:33,726 --> 00:06:34,886
Sunday morning.
121
00:06:35,395 --> 00:06:38,592
Which is pretty amazing,
considering she'd been
dead for five hours.
122
00:06:38,664 --> 00:06:39,790
Mr. Burks' alibi?
123
00:06:40,133 --> 00:06:43,261
LUDs confirm he was
on the phone on and off
till 4:20 in the morning.
124
00:06:43,336 --> 00:06:44,928
That pretty much
eliminates him.
125
00:06:45,338 --> 00:06:48,273
Baltimore to Jersey City is,
what, about a four-hour drive?
126
00:06:48,341 --> 00:06:49,330
Give or take.
127
00:06:49,409 --> 00:06:52,242
Well, that puts the murder
scene back in Baltimore's lap.
128
00:06:53,646 --> 00:06:57,742
It's like I told you and,
uh, cutie-pie, here.
Detective cutie-pie.
129
00:06:58,384 --> 00:07:03,151
Yeah, right.
Miss McBride's car was here
Saturday afternoon,
130
00:07:03,222 --> 00:07:04,849
and it wasn't here
Saturday night.
131
00:07:05,024 --> 00:07:06,548
What time again
Saturday night?
132
00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:08,388
Maybe 10:30.
133
00:07:08,961 --> 00:07:10,155
You told us 10:00.
134
00:07:11,264 --> 00:07:13,528
Give or take.
What am I, Swiss?
135
00:07:14,667 --> 00:07:15,964
Who has the spot
next to her?
136
00:07:16,469 --> 00:07:20,428
The Conways.
They went to, uh, Pompano
for the winter two weeks ago.
137
00:07:20,506 --> 00:07:23,771
Munch, what do these
look like to you?
138
00:07:27,847 --> 00:07:30,782
The blood drops are
the same type, same PGM,
139
00:07:31,083 --> 00:07:32,846
and same antigen as
McBride's blood.
140
00:07:33,286 --> 00:07:35,686
Probably from
the broken nose she got
when she was suffocated.
141
00:07:35,988 --> 00:07:39,480
In her parking garage.
Looking more like
Baltimore's problem.
142
00:07:39,592 --> 00:07:41,287
And we've got
nothing off
the fingerprints.
143
00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:43,851
But Baltimore got a hit
off the serial number
of the gun.
144
00:07:44,397 --> 00:07:47,332
It's registered to a
Eugene Lee in
Timonium, Maryland.
145
00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:48,924
Reported stolen two
years ago.
146
00:07:49,135 --> 00:07:50,625
Definitely
Baltimore's problem.
147
00:07:51,204 --> 00:07:54,173
Someone went to
a lot of trouble to drop
the body off on our doorstep.
148
00:07:54,574 --> 00:07:55,905
Wouldn't you like to know why?
149
00:07:56,008 --> 00:07:59,603
Well, I'm sure Lieutenant
Giardello will call me with
all the fascinating details.
150
00:07:59,679 --> 00:08:02,079
Right now, it's looking
like a robbery-carjack.
151
00:08:02,915 --> 00:08:04,644
We don't know for
sure where she was killed.
152
00:08:05,418 --> 00:08:06,544
You claiming
joint jurisdiction?
153
00:08:06,619 --> 00:08:10,055
She was a high-level
federal bureaucrat. A GS-15.
154
00:08:10,122 --> 00:08:13,421
If we let this slip through
our fingers, we could end up
lookin' like idiots.
155
00:08:16,929 --> 00:08:19,295
We're still goin' with the
perp being somebody she knew.
156
00:08:19,365 --> 00:08:21,890
Either a boyfriend
or somebody
bucking for the job.
157
00:08:22,001 --> 00:08:23,298
You workin'
the address book?
158
00:08:23,669 --> 00:08:25,398
We couldn't come up with
a boyfriend or anybody
who saw her
159
00:08:25,471 --> 00:08:27,234
Saturday night.
We luminoled the bed.
160
00:08:27,306 --> 00:08:30,366
Zip for bodily fluids.
We found blonde hair.
She was blonde, right?
161
00:08:30,543 --> 00:08:31,635
Top and bottom.
162
00:08:31,911 --> 00:08:34,072
That's what I missed
about you, Lennie.
Your succinctness.
163
00:08:35,348 --> 00:08:36,337
Access denied.
164
00:08:37,316 --> 00:08:39,944
Bill Gates is
messing with my head.
Click on Utilities.
165
00:08:42,588 --> 00:08:44,783
No, I'm not familiar with this
password program.
166
00:08:44,924 --> 00:08:46,414
Must be something new the
Feds are using.
167
00:08:47,026 --> 00:08:48,516
The lab
can figure it out.
168
00:08:50,096 --> 00:08:51,120
Where's Munch?
169
00:08:51,297 --> 00:08:52,628
In the bedroom with Lennie.
170
00:08:52,698 --> 00:08:54,928
Those two can't keep their
hands off each other.
171
00:08:56,002 --> 00:08:57,469
Guess that means we're
workin' together.
172
00:08:57,703 --> 00:08:59,000
Last time, I had Falsone.
173
00:08:59,105 --> 00:09:01,073
This is a big improvement.
You think?
174
00:09:01,541 --> 00:09:02,565
You're taller.
175
00:09:04,677 --> 00:09:08,636
The place is negative
for condoms or any kind
of contraceptive devices.
176
00:09:08,714 --> 00:09:12,775
Ditto peek-a-boo bras,
merry widows,
any Doc Johnson products.
177
00:09:13,052 --> 00:09:14,849
This lady had no
discernible sex life.
178
00:09:15,121 --> 00:09:16,748
Maybe she enjoyed
solitaire.
179
00:09:18,057 --> 00:09:20,150
That would be a shame,
because I saw her picture.
180
00:09:20,259 --> 00:09:23,251
She isn't half-bad.
Uh, can you...
Can you get that?
181
00:09:23,930 --> 00:09:25,227
What, under there?
Forget it.
182
00:09:25,698 --> 00:09:26,722
Never mind.
183
00:09:26,799 --> 00:09:27,788
Oh...
184
00:09:33,005 --> 00:09:33,994
Mmm!
185
00:09:35,107 --> 00:09:38,042
Personal lubricant.
Cherry flavor. Yummy!
186
00:09:38,911 --> 00:09:40,742
Solitaire's more fun
with two players.
187
00:09:44,183 --> 00:09:45,445
This is her office.
188
00:09:48,721 --> 00:09:51,087
Janine was such a
private person.
189
00:09:51,624 --> 00:09:54,252
And here she turns up,
splashed across the news.
190
00:09:54,594 --> 00:09:55,652
We were shocked.
191
00:09:56,162 --> 00:09:58,630
She'd only been transferred
here a couple of months ago.
192
00:09:58,798 --> 00:10:00,356
We heard she wasn't
too happy about it.
193
00:10:00,633 --> 00:10:02,032
I could never
understand why.
194
00:10:02,301 --> 00:10:05,168
She got a raise,
more responsibility.
195
00:10:05,471 --> 00:10:06,802
She just said
she missed Washington.
196
00:10:07,273 --> 00:10:10,174
Any particular person
in Washington?
That never came up.
197
00:10:10,576 --> 00:10:11,770
How about somebody here?
198
00:10:12,111 --> 00:10:14,978
She brought a date
to a couple of functions.
A good-looking man.
199
00:10:15,081 --> 00:10:17,675
Works for Senator Romney's
office here.
200
00:10:17,750 --> 00:10:21,345
Um, Nelson. Brett Nelson.
Just a casual date?
201
00:10:21,520 --> 00:10:25,479
Mmm, no. But she told me
she didn't know if it
was going anywhere.
202
00:10:25,658 --> 00:10:28,491
Did she want it to?
Well, I got the
impression that
203
00:10:28,561 --> 00:10:30,995
she cared more about him
than he cared about her.
204
00:10:31,430 --> 00:10:32,419
She tell you that?
205
00:10:33,032 --> 00:10:36,331
I overheard her on the
phone with him. Must have
been a couple of weeks ago.
206
00:10:36,802 --> 00:10:38,497
She was upset. Crying.
207
00:10:39,505 --> 00:10:42,531
Janine was just a girlfriend.
There was nothing special
going on.
208
00:10:42,608 --> 00:10:43,802
You slept with her?
209
00:10:44,343 --> 00:10:47,369
Yes. So what?
Any chance she misread
the signals?
210
00:10:47,446 --> 00:10:48,743
No, she wasn't
that naive.
211
00:10:49,348 --> 00:10:51,942
Guys usually keep their
fingers crossed
when they say that.
212
00:10:52,051 --> 00:10:53,541
When the two of you
shacked up,
213
00:10:53,953 --> 00:10:55,477
whose place was it,
yours or hers?
214
00:10:55,721 --> 00:10:58,554
Either one.
All right.
On, uh, Saturday night?
215
00:10:59,091 --> 00:11:02,390
Saturday night I had
chicken and mashed potatoes
at the American Legion.
216
00:11:02,495 --> 00:11:05,157
The Senator announced new
defense contracts for
local businesses.
217
00:11:05,431 --> 00:11:06,420
What time did you
leave?
218
00:11:06,565 --> 00:11:08,499
Uh, maybe 10:00,
quarter past.
219
00:11:09,001 --> 00:11:12,232
Where'd you go?
Uh, I rented a video.
Jules and Jim.
220
00:11:12,338 --> 00:11:14,306
Then I went home.
What about Sunday morning?
221
00:11:14,540 --> 00:11:17,771
I went jogging. I think
I've told you everything
you need to know.
222
00:11:17,843 --> 00:11:18,832
If you'll excuse me.
223
00:11:20,680 --> 00:11:22,875
I took Jeremy for a walk
at 5:00 Sunday morning.
224
00:11:22,948 --> 00:11:24,916
Again at 7:00,
at 9:00, and at 11:00.
225
00:11:24,984 --> 00:11:26,679
Thirsty little guy, huh?
226
00:11:26,886 --> 00:11:28,581
He has bladder
problems.
227
00:11:28,921 --> 00:11:31,014
Anyway, I didn't notice
if Nelson was at home.
228
00:11:31,090 --> 00:11:32,455
He said he went jogging.
229
00:11:32,758 --> 00:11:34,726
Well, if he was at home,
I don't think he went out.
230
00:11:34,860 --> 00:11:35,952
And why is that?
231
00:11:36,028 --> 00:11:38,053
His newspaper was still
out front at 11:00.
232
00:11:38,264 --> 00:11:41,461
You sure?
Oh, yes. Because I took it.
233
00:11:43,903 --> 00:11:46,701
I don't know what time
I came back. I don't wear
my watch when I jog.
234
00:11:46,939 --> 00:11:49,499
Then what?
You read the
Sunday paper at home?
235
00:11:49,608 --> 00:11:51,405
Yes.
The paper you get delivered?
236
00:11:51,844 --> 00:11:53,141
Yes, the paper
I get delivered.
237
00:11:53,446 --> 00:11:54,936
The paper your neighbor
stole from you?
238
00:11:56,048 --> 00:11:57,345
Look, I didn't kill Janine.
239
00:11:57,483 --> 00:11:59,474
I didn't see her
Saturday or Sunday.
240
00:11:59,852 --> 00:12:02,650
Then we need to know why
you've lied to us.
I have not lied.
241
00:12:02,722 --> 00:12:05,350
I saw the paper was gone,
so I bought one
on the way home.
242
00:12:05,725 --> 00:12:08,285
You told us you
rented a movie on
Saturday night.
243
00:12:09,028 --> 00:12:11,155
The video store
has you renting it
Saturday afternoon.
244
00:12:11,297 --> 00:12:13,788
Yes, but I exchanged it
Saturday night
for another copy.
245
00:12:13,866 --> 00:12:16,027
The tape was defective.
That's what I meant.
246
00:12:16,402 --> 00:12:18,802
They don't keep a record
if you exchange it for
the same movie.
247
00:12:18,871 --> 00:12:20,463
So don't tell me
I've lied to you.
248
00:12:21,107 --> 00:12:23,007
I wasn't with Janine.
I was home.
249
00:12:24,643 --> 00:12:26,634
I'm still getting a twitch
from this guy.
250
00:12:26,812 --> 00:12:30,373
It's got nothing
to do with McBride.
I think he's gay.
251
00:12:30,449 --> 00:12:33,577
Why? Because he didn't
come on to you?
I didn't come on to you.
252
00:12:33,652 --> 00:12:34,778
Yeah, whatever
you say.
253
00:12:35,020 --> 00:12:37,989
Look, just because I opened
your door doesn't mean
I'm flirting with you, Rene.
254
00:12:38,057 --> 00:12:39,183
It's just my
upbringing.
255
00:12:39,558 --> 00:12:42,959
Besides, I'm very married.
You know what
my mother says?
256
00:12:43,062 --> 00:12:44,859
What's that?
That most men cheat.
257
00:12:45,664 --> 00:12:48,132
And the ones that don't
are just afraid to.
258
00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:50,031
So, adulterers or
cowards, huh?
259
00:12:50,503 --> 00:12:52,801
You have the same
high opinion of men
as your mother does?
260
00:12:53,272 --> 00:12:56,366
I'm a romantic.
I'm still hoping
to find a man I can trust.
261
00:12:57,409 --> 00:12:59,343
As for Nelson,
he gave himself away.
262
00:13:00,045 --> 00:13:01,444
He was checking you out.
263
00:13:04,817 --> 00:13:07,650
Mr. Nelson,
we'd like to believe
you didn't hurt Janine,
264
00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:09,210
but our gut tells us
you're lying to us.
265
00:13:09,321 --> 00:13:11,949
As long as
we have that feeling
we're not letting go of you.
266
00:13:12,792 --> 00:13:16,785
The longer you're a suspect,
the more you become an object
of public curiosity.
267
00:13:16,929 --> 00:13:20,126
Listen to me. Your whole life
will be out in the open.
268
00:13:21,634 --> 00:13:24,296
But if you want to
come clean with us now,
nobody'll be the wiser.
269
00:13:29,575 --> 00:13:31,304
I don't want the
Senator embarrassed.
270
00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:36,342
So where were you
Saturday night?
271
00:13:38,818 --> 00:13:39,978
I was at a friend's house.
272
00:13:40,553 --> 00:13:42,180
You understand we'll
have to verify that.
273
00:13:43,422 --> 00:13:45,617
His name is Dennis Jasper.
274
00:13:45,958 --> 00:13:47,425
What was your
relationship with Janine?
275
00:13:49,128 --> 00:13:51,187
She needed a date
for official functions
276
00:13:51,263 --> 00:13:53,060
so she called
a friend-of-a-friend in DC.
277
00:13:53,833 --> 00:13:56,028
Did she know you were gay?
That was the point.
278
00:13:56,602 --> 00:13:58,502
She didn't want any
misunderstandings.
279
00:13:59,872 --> 00:14:01,965
Mr. Jasper confirmed
Nelson's alibi.
280
00:14:02,174 --> 00:14:03,801
Janine McBride's
gay, too?
281
00:14:03,876 --> 00:14:05,503
Mutual friend she
had with Nelson confirmed it.
282
00:14:05,611 --> 00:14:08,842
So, beating around
the wrong bush.
283
00:14:08,914 --> 00:14:10,347
A man still could
have done it.
284
00:14:10,449 --> 00:14:13,816
Some rejected suitor
venting his heterosexual rage.
285
00:14:13,886 --> 00:14:15,444
Ah, Nelson feels
pretty sure that
286
00:14:15,521 --> 00:14:16,852
if McBride had a
problem with
287
00:14:16,922 --> 00:14:18,480
anybody she would've
mentioned it to him.
288
00:14:18,557 --> 00:14:20,525
Did he know if she
had a lover?
289
00:14:20,693 --> 00:14:22,627
She never mentioned
anyone to him.
290
00:14:22,728 --> 00:14:24,923
Well, that lubricant
wasn't for squeaky
bedsprings.
291
00:14:24,997 --> 00:14:26,589
Anybody check her
phone records?
292
00:14:26,665 --> 00:14:27,962
Yeah. Since she
moved to Baltimore,
293
00:14:28,033 --> 00:14:29,432
calls to
her parents,
294
00:14:29,535 --> 00:14:33,266
to work, to DC,
various government offices.
Lots of those...
295
00:14:33,339 --> 00:14:35,899
Well, assuming the
suspect is one
of McBride's lovers,
296
00:14:36,008 --> 00:14:38,067
we start with
the local lesbian bars.
297
00:14:38,210 --> 00:14:39,541
John, I'm
sure you have a list.
298
00:14:40,346 --> 00:14:41,574
As a matter
of fact...
299
00:14:43,282 --> 00:14:44,510
I've never
seen her here.
300
00:14:44,950 --> 00:14:45,974
You sure she was gay?
301
00:14:46,218 --> 00:14:49,676
I don't believe
a woman is gay until she
personally rejects me.
302
00:14:49,989 --> 00:14:51,581
You must know a lot
of lesbians.
303
00:14:53,359 --> 00:14:54,348
Thanks, ladies.
304
00:14:54,426 --> 00:14:55,950
Lennie, there's
gotta be ten women
305
00:14:56,095 --> 00:14:57,858
for every woman in
this place.
306
00:14:57,930 --> 00:15:00,125
And all gorgeous.
And happy.
307
00:15:00,666 --> 00:15:02,293
As soon as they invent
artificial sperm
308
00:15:02,368 --> 00:15:03,494
and a machine
that opens jars,
309
00:15:03,836 --> 00:15:05,269
you and I are
outta business, old buddy.
310
00:15:07,273 --> 00:15:10,208
Yeah, her name is Jean
or something like that, right?
311
00:15:10,342 --> 00:15:11,536
Janine.
You know her?
312
00:15:12,077 --> 00:15:13,169
From DC.
313
00:15:13,512 --> 00:15:16,140
I used to work there.
And she's been in
here a couple of times.
314
00:15:16,215 --> 00:15:19,548
Alone?
Yes. Left the same way.
315
00:15:19,652 --> 00:15:21,449
Did she patronize
any of the other clubs?
316
00:15:21,754 --> 00:15:23,984
She wasn't into the
scene in Baltimore.
317
00:15:24,056 --> 00:15:25,580
She cruised the clubs in DC.
318
00:15:25,958 --> 00:15:28,017
Did she talk to
anyone when she
came in here?
319
00:15:28,093 --> 00:15:30,687
No. She'd have a drink,
320
00:15:30,796 --> 00:15:35,165
use the phone,
have another drink,
use the phone again.
321
00:15:35,601 --> 00:15:38,399
Not what you'd call
a happy little Mouseketeer.
322
00:15:40,239 --> 00:15:42,605
I know who guys call
from bars.
323
00:15:42,708 --> 00:15:46,303
Mistresses, bookies...
Hookers,
drug connections...
324
00:15:46,578 --> 00:15:48,102
Yeah, but who do
lesbians call?
325
00:15:48,580 --> 00:15:49,706
You know, we're
suckin' wind here.
326
00:15:49,782 --> 00:15:50,806
The barkeep didn't
even remember the last
327
00:15:50,883 --> 00:15:52,282
time McBride was in there.
328
00:15:52,351 --> 00:15:53,818
John, John.
Perseverance.
329
00:15:53,953 --> 00:15:55,443
That's what makes
a great detective.
330
00:15:55,754 --> 00:15:58,279
What makes a
great detective
is a great snitch.
331
00:15:58,924 --> 00:16:00,915
The lab got into
McBride's computer.
332
00:16:00,993 --> 00:16:03,985
Most of it
was work-related,
personal finances.
333
00:16:04,263 --> 00:16:06,993
But there was this. A draft
of an unaddressed letter.
334
00:16:07,533 --> 00:16:09,364
"Since I've been unable
to get redress through
335
00:16:09,435 --> 00:16:11,403
"normal channels, I
must resort to
336
00:16:11,470 --> 00:16:12,960
"a personal
communication with you.
337
00:16:13,072 --> 00:16:15,302
"As you are well aware,
my transfer to Baltimore has
338
00:16:15,407 --> 00:16:17,034
"completely
overwhelmed me.
339
00:16:17,643 --> 00:16:19,304
"It is unfair and
unwarranted. You and
340
00:16:19,378 --> 00:16:20,936
"I both know
the personal issue
341
00:16:21,013 --> 00:16:22,571
"that led to
this transfer.
342
00:16:22,948 --> 00:16:25,940
"Unless the situation is
rectified to my satisfaction,
343
00:16:26,018 --> 00:16:27,747
"I warn you,
I will go public.
344
00:16:27,820 --> 00:16:30,186
"I will name names. "
345
00:16:30,456 --> 00:16:33,448
Looks like they
rectified the situation
to their satisfaction.
346
00:16:33,525 --> 00:16:35,254
Here we go again.
347
00:16:35,327 --> 00:16:38,023
The Manchurian Candidate
was a work of non-fiction,
Lennie.
348
00:16:38,964 --> 00:16:41,398
Anybody know
a good hotel in DC?
349
00:16:42,401 --> 00:16:43,732
It's all yours, Lennie.
350
00:16:44,236 --> 00:16:45,999
I better get back
to my family.
351
00:16:47,339 --> 00:16:49,864
I might as well get
back into rotation.
352
00:16:52,044 --> 00:16:53,602
Dibs on the right
side of the bed.
353
00:17:03,022 --> 00:17:04,990
You know what
the holdup is? Me.
354
00:17:05,858 --> 00:17:08,156
I'm a security risk.
You're a cop.
355
00:17:08,727 --> 00:17:11,025
Before I got on the team,
I was down for
the revolution, Lennie.
356
00:17:11,096 --> 00:17:12,461
I was a street fighting man.
357
00:17:13,565 --> 00:17:17,023
I made a Freedom of
Information request for
my FBl files two months ago.
358
00:17:17,102 --> 00:17:18,797
They're probably
still figuring out
how many 18-wheelers
359
00:17:18,904 --> 00:17:20,235
it's gonna take
to get it to my mailbox.
360
00:17:20,305 --> 00:17:22,500
I'm on their books
as an enemy of the state.
361
00:17:23,342 --> 00:17:24,866
I might as well have
stayed home.
362
00:17:25,344 --> 00:17:27,710
Sirs, you've been
cleared to go in.
363
00:17:28,080 --> 00:17:30,048
Mrs. Palnick's office
is on the third floor.
364
00:17:30,149 --> 00:17:31,776
Thanks.
You're welcome.
365
00:17:33,118 --> 00:17:34,745
I'm very sorry
you had to wait.
366
00:17:34,820 --> 00:17:37,152
I needed the okay from
next door to talk to you.
367
00:17:37,423 --> 00:17:38,981
With the Independent
Counsel tossing
368
00:17:39,058 --> 00:17:40,548
subpoenas left and
right, everyone's
369
00:17:40,626 --> 00:17:42,025
very careful
whom they talk to.
370
00:17:42,728 --> 00:17:44,218
Well, we're just
here on a nice
371
00:17:44,296 --> 00:17:46,491
simple murder.
No high crimes or
misdemeanors.
372
00:17:47,232 --> 00:17:49,632
What exactly does the Council
of Economic Advisors do?
373
00:17:49,701 --> 00:17:51,498
Engineer the collapse
of the ruble?
374
00:17:51,570 --> 00:17:53,128
No. Please, sit.
375
00:17:53,705 --> 00:17:55,935
We collect newspaper
and magazine articles on
376
00:17:56,008 --> 00:17:57,498
relevant business issues.
377
00:17:58,143 --> 00:18:00,839
Why was Ms. McBride
transferred to Baltimore?
378
00:18:01,914 --> 00:18:04,212
Her position here
became redundant.
379
00:18:04,650 --> 00:18:05,742
Her name went
back in the hat.
380
00:18:05,818 --> 00:18:07,342
Just the standard
red tape.
381
00:18:07,953 --> 00:18:10,421
Well, according to a letter
we found, she was under the
382
00:18:10,556 --> 00:18:13,286
impression that she
was moved because of
a personal issue.
383
00:18:13,358 --> 00:18:14,382
What issue?
384
00:18:14,660 --> 00:18:17,629
She was gay.
Oh. No, I hardly
consider that an issue.
385
00:18:17,696 --> 00:18:18,685
Everyone knew.
386
00:18:18,764 --> 00:18:21,198
People who think
somebody's out to
get them are usually right.
387
00:18:21,266 --> 00:18:23,325
Well, I can see why Janine
might have felt that.
388
00:18:25,037 --> 00:18:29,770
A few months ago,
I got an anonymous call
from a man.
389
00:18:30,175 --> 00:18:31,665
He was obviously upset.
390
00:18:32,444 --> 00:18:34,503
He told me that
Janine was a lesbian,
391
00:18:34,613 --> 00:18:36,012
which wasn't news to me.
392
00:18:36,915 --> 00:18:40,612
He accused her of
soliciting sex from some
of our junior employees.
393
00:18:40,686 --> 00:18:42,586
Did you tell Ms. McBride
about the call?
394
00:18:43,055 --> 00:18:45,956
Yes. She said it was someone
who was stalking her.
395
00:18:46,658 --> 00:18:48,353
I told her to report
it to the police.
396
00:18:48,427 --> 00:18:49,621
I don't think she listened.
397
00:18:49,728 --> 00:18:51,753
This man, did he give the
name of the junior employees?
398
00:18:52,030 --> 00:18:54,021
Mmm-hmm. He mentioned
three names,
399
00:18:54,166 --> 00:18:58,694
I talked to them. They denied
Janine ever had any
improper dealings with them.
400
00:18:58,770 --> 00:19:02,171
Well, we'll need to
ask them if they know
who this stalker is.
401
00:19:02,608 --> 00:19:03,768
Right. Uh...
402
00:19:05,077 --> 00:19:09,741
Susan Tremar took a private
sector job in Los Angeles.
403
00:19:09,815 --> 00:19:13,774
Connie Morris is on maternity
leave in St. Louis.
404
00:19:13,919 --> 00:19:19,880
But Katherine Raynor
works across the street in
the Chief of Staff's office.
405
00:19:20,659 --> 00:19:21,717
There you go.
406
00:19:22,528 --> 00:19:24,758
Uh, I only have, like,
half-an-hour for lunch,
407
00:19:24,897 --> 00:19:26,330
and I still have
to get a yogurt. So...
408
00:19:26,832 --> 00:19:28,390
We appreciate you're
taking the time.
409
00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:31,535
Uh, I just want to know
how my name came up.
I mean, a murder...
410
00:19:31,603 --> 00:19:32,934
That's just...
That's, I don't know,
it's crazy.
411
00:19:33,005 --> 00:19:37,032
Well, an allegation
was made that Ms. McBride
sexually harassed you.
412
00:19:37,109 --> 00:19:39,976
Okay, that's a joke.
413
00:19:40,045 --> 00:19:41,706
It never...
Who told you that?
414
00:19:41,813 --> 00:19:42,973
Ms. Palnick.
415
00:19:43,315 --> 00:19:45,283
Well, I told her it
wasn't true.
416
00:19:45,751 --> 00:19:48,276
Just because I was friendly
with Janine doesn't mean
417
00:19:48,387 --> 00:19:49,649
there was anything
weird going on.
418
00:19:49,888 --> 00:19:51,412
Who would make an
allegation like that?
419
00:19:53,559 --> 00:19:55,220
Some prejudiced
person who doesn't
420
00:19:55,294 --> 00:19:58,286
like gays or wanted
Janine's job.
421
00:19:58,897 --> 00:20:00,888
You ever discuss this with
Janine over yogurt?
422
00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:03,865
Ms. Palnick
told me not to.
423
00:20:04,436 --> 00:20:08,930
Besides, Janine and I only
talked about our parents
and clothes and guys.
424
00:20:09,041 --> 00:20:10,440
Guys?
425
00:20:10,709 --> 00:20:11,903
People are people.
426
00:20:12,544 --> 00:20:14,808
Janine gave me
advice about
relationships.
427
00:20:15,247 --> 00:20:17,044
Does anyone else
know you're talking to me?
428
00:20:17,115 --> 00:20:18,377
No, it's just our
little secret.
429
00:20:18,917 --> 00:20:20,976
Did she ever mention
that she might be having
430
00:20:21,053 --> 00:20:22,816
a problem with somebody
stalking her?
431
00:20:23,922 --> 00:20:26,823
Uh, yeah. She said there was
some creep bothering her.
432
00:20:26,925 --> 00:20:29,758
Her neighbor in her
old building, he's FBl.
433
00:20:30,095 --> 00:20:31,392
She asked him to
talk to the guy.
434
00:20:36,668 --> 00:20:38,602
I spoke to him as a
private citizen,
435
00:20:38,704 --> 00:20:40,296
not in my official
capacity.
436
00:20:40,505 --> 00:20:41,802
I was just being
a good neighbor.
437
00:20:42,074 --> 00:20:43,735
Do you know why he
was harassing her?
438
00:20:43,875 --> 00:20:45,638
No. And I didn't get
into it with him.
439
00:20:45,978 --> 00:20:48,469
We had a very short
conversation. Did the trick.
440
00:20:49,147 --> 00:20:52,048
Apparently not. Ms. McBride
was found murdered in
New York last week.
441
00:20:55,754 --> 00:20:57,016
And you suspect
this person?
442
00:20:57,189 --> 00:20:59,214
We just need to have
a longer talk with him.
443
00:20:59,291 --> 00:21:00,622
Uh, if you could
just give us his name.
444
00:21:00,959 --> 00:21:02,256
I better run it by
my station chief.
445
00:21:02,561 --> 00:21:04,825
Don't get any ideas.
This is our case.
446
00:21:05,597 --> 00:21:06,586
I'll convey that to him.
447
00:21:07,032 --> 00:21:08,693
Now, if you gentlemen
will just wait here.
448
00:21:08,767 --> 00:21:11,668
Uh, one more thing.
I sent away for my FBl file
449
00:21:11,770 --> 00:21:13,397
under the Freedom
of Information Act.
450
00:21:13,538 --> 00:21:15,563
Seeing as I'm here,
any chance
I could pick it up?
451
00:21:17,142 --> 00:21:18,803
My assistant might
be able to help you.
452
00:21:23,048 --> 00:21:24,447
He's not gonna give
us the name, Lennie.
453
00:21:25,083 --> 00:21:27,779
The cone of silence is
descending on our
little investigation.
454
00:21:27,986 --> 00:21:29,977
It's just the usual
cover-my-ass shuffle.
455
00:21:30,322 --> 00:21:32,381
You think that.
In the meantime,
the phone is ringing
456
00:21:32,457 --> 00:21:34,516
in the Big Apple,
in Charm City...
457
00:21:34,593 --> 00:21:36,857
The hook is poised to
yank us off the case.
458
00:21:37,195 --> 00:21:39,390
Would a cup of coffee make
you even more paranoid?
459
00:21:40,265 --> 00:21:42,529
We located your file,
Mr. Munch.
460
00:21:42,734 --> 00:21:44,497
If you'll just sign here.
461
00:21:46,138 --> 00:21:48,663
Uh, we have a mid-sized car.
I'm concerned it won't
fit in the trunk.
462
00:21:49,107 --> 00:21:50,631
You shouldn't
have a problem.
463
00:21:50,976 --> 00:21:53,604
And, uh, this is
from Agent Hardin.
464
00:21:53,679 --> 00:21:55,340
It's the
name you wanted.
Thank you.
465
00:21:56,014 --> 00:22:01,077
And the lucky stalker
is Frank Willington.
466
00:22:01,153 --> 00:22:02,177
Works at the Pentagon.
467
00:22:03,755 --> 00:22:05,313
This is spooky, Lennie.
What?
468
00:22:05,490 --> 00:22:07,082
My file, where's
the rest of it?
469
00:22:07,926 --> 00:22:09,518
It's page one of one.
470
00:22:10,662 --> 00:22:12,562
Well, this can't be
everything, Lennie.
471
00:22:12,664 --> 00:22:16,361
I mean, I was a
dangerous radical,
left-wing journalist...
472
00:22:17,336 --> 00:22:19,827
"Subject is an occasional
reporter and music critic for
473
00:22:19,905 --> 00:22:21,634
"the alternative weekly,
The Paper.

00:22:22,074 --> 00:22:24,872

"a non-entity in

00:22:29,614 --> 00:22:32,208
"In our evaluation,
subject poses no threat. "
478
00:22:33,118 --> 00:22:36,053
Well, better luck come
the next revolution, John.
479
00:22:41,460 --> 00:22:43,451
I was not stalking her.
480
00:22:44,029 --> 00:22:45,462
It just got blown
out of proportion.
481
00:22:45,530 --> 00:22:47,327
Well, what exactly
were you doing?
482
00:22:47,999 --> 00:22:49,296
I just had to talk to her.
483
00:22:49,468 --> 00:22:51,766
Why? She owe you money?
You lent her a book?
484
00:22:51,870 --> 00:22:53,428
You knew her
from a previous life?
485
00:22:55,173 --> 00:22:56,606
It was a private matter.
486
00:22:56,675 --> 00:22:59,075
Frank, we know she hit from
the other side of the plate.
487
00:22:59,244 --> 00:23:01,508
Look, I have stayed away
from Janine McBride.
488
00:23:01,580 --> 00:23:03,946
I haven't phoned her.
I haven't talked to her.
489
00:23:04,082 --> 00:23:05,515
You been to Baltimore lately?
490
00:23:05,851 --> 00:23:07,751
Yes. Every other week
on business.
491
00:23:08,153 --> 00:23:10,178
How about a week ago
last Saturday night?
492
00:23:10,622 --> 00:23:13,489
I was at the movies
with my kids.
Then we went home.
493
00:23:13,759 --> 00:23:15,317
Can your wife verify that?
494
00:23:16,228 --> 00:23:18,890
My wife, she's not
staying with us.
It's temporary.
495
00:23:18,964 --> 00:23:20,488
I don't want you
bothering her.
496
00:23:20,799 --> 00:23:24,929
Either your wife
or your kids, Frank, somebody
has to corroborate your story.
497
00:23:27,506 --> 00:23:29,269
You just stay away
from my family.
498
00:23:31,009 --> 00:23:34,206
I'm going back to work.
You just stay away from us.
499
00:23:36,648 --> 00:23:39,082
The wife?
Uh...
500
00:23:40,852 --> 00:23:42,945
Fay Willington,
Assistant Deputy
501
00:23:43,021 --> 00:23:45,285
Under-Secretary,
Department of Labor.
502
00:23:46,758 --> 00:23:51,354
It's a trial separation.
Frank and I just need a
time-out.
503
00:23:51,630 --> 00:23:53,461
He's a pretty
intense guy.
504
00:23:53,698 --> 00:23:55,791
Why would you say that?
Just a hunch.
505
00:23:56,001 --> 00:23:59,368
What was his relationship
with Janine McBride?
None. I mean...
506
00:24:00,572 --> 00:24:02,096
We only knew her socially.
507
00:24:02,307 --> 00:24:04,502
Any idea why he
was harassing her
two months ago?
508
00:24:04,576 --> 00:24:05,770
I'm sure he wasn't.
509
00:24:06,044 --> 00:24:08,274
Anything to do with
why you're separated?
510
00:24:09,614 --> 00:24:11,377
I only agreed to talk
about my husband.
511
00:24:11,650 --> 00:24:12,708
Fine, your husband.
512
00:24:12,784 --> 00:24:15,617
Do you know where he was
Saturday night two weeks ago?
513
00:24:16,588 --> 00:24:19,216
Took our children to
see a movie.
He was home after that.
514
00:24:19,291 --> 00:24:21,486
And where were you?
I was at my apartment.
515
00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:23,721
But you happen to know that
he was home with the kids
in Georgetown?
516
00:24:23,795 --> 00:24:27,959
I talked to him when
the kids called to say
good night, around 10:30.
517
00:24:28,200 --> 00:24:29,929
How do you know he didn't
go out after that?
518
00:24:30,669 --> 00:24:32,136
Well, I called Frank.
519
00:24:32,304 --> 00:24:35,467
Just after midnight.
I had to remind him that
Daniel's soccer game...
520
00:24:35,540 --> 00:24:37,701
We can pull your
phone records,
Mrs. Willington.
521
00:24:37,943 --> 00:24:39,740
Find out if you really
did make that call.
522
00:24:39,845 --> 00:24:41,574
You sure you didn't
just imagine it?
523
00:24:45,050 --> 00:24:46,642
I want to talk to my lawyer.
524
00:24:47,919 --> 00:24:50,444
She's already upstairs.
Her lawyer practically
brought her in
525
00:24:50,522 --> 00:24:52,046
with a coat
over her head.
526
00:24:52,123 --> 00:24:53,454
Sounds a little
overcautious.
527
00:24:53,525 --> 00:24:55,652
In the land of the Red Mass
and programed assassins,
528
00:24:55,727 --> 00:24:57,456
paranoia is a
healthy response.
529
00:24:58,063 --> 00:24:59,462
The Red Mass?
530
00:24:59,698 --> 00:25:03,600
The secret Catholic Mass
held for the Supreme Court the
Sunday before their session.
531
00:25:03,702 --> 00:25:06,034
All the justices
dress in red
for the occasion.
532
00:25:06,438 --> 00:25:07,962
I'm intrigued you haven't
heard of it, Counselor.
533
00:25:08,440 --> 00:25:09,907
Room 1215.
534
00:25:18,283 --> 00:25:20,717
I don't want to talk.
I don't even want to be here.
535
00:25:22,454 --> 00:25:23,853
Just so you understand.
536
00:25:24,155 --> 00:25:26,885
I can have you arrested
and held until you
change your mind.
537
00:25:27,659 --> 00:25:29,559
She's not a
material witness.
538
00:25:29,828 --> 00:25:31,159
I'm saying she is.
539
00:25:34,799 --> 00:25:38,235
We need an absolute
guarantee her identity
will be protected.
540
00:25:39,271 --> 00:25:42,900
We can do that.
But if it goes to trial,
she'll have to testify.
541
00:25:43,108 --> 00:25:44,905
I don't want
my children to know.
542
00:25:45,076 --> 00:25:46,737
Best we can do
in the event of a trial
543
00:25:47,479 --> 00:25:50,312
is ask the judge to close the
courtroom for your testimony.
544
00:25:58,523 --> 00:25:59,888
I had an affair,
545
00:26:00,725 --> 00:26:01,919
with Janine McBride.
546
00:26:03,428 --> 00:26:06,989
That's why Frank harassed her.
That's why we separated.
547
00:26:07,832 --> 00:26:09,129
If this comes out...
548
00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:11,668
We're not that far north
of the Bible Belt.
549
00:26:12,304 --> 00:26:14,329
She's afraid she'll
lose custody of her kids.
550
00:26:14,706 --> 00:26:16,298
She said her husband knows.
551
00:26:16,908 --> 00:26:19,536
He thinks it's a phase.
But it isn't?
552
00:26:20,478 --> 00:26:21,467
No.
553
00:26:23,114 --> 00:26:24,809
Did he kill Janine McBride?
554
00:26:25,684 --> 00:26:26,673
No.
555
00:26:26,751 --> 00:26:29,549
How can you be sure?
You don't know where
he was late Saturday night.
556
00:26:29,788 --> 00:26:31,517
I know where Janine was.
557
00:26:31,856 --> 00:26:34,450
I was at a club. Talullah's.
558
00:26:35,327 --> 00:26:36,658
I ran into her in
the parking lot.
559
00:26:36,728 --> 00:26:38,559
She had a young black woman
in the car with her.
560
00:26:38,630 --> 00:26:41,224
Very attractive. Very...
561
00:26:41,499 --> 00:26:44,093
Hard looking.
Probably a prostitute.
562
00:26:45,804 --> 00:26:47,362
And Janine drove off with her.
563
00:26:48,540 --> 00:26:51,008
We'll need you to
look at mug shots.
See if you can pick her out.
564
00:26:52,444 --> 00:26:53,433
All right.
565
00:26:55,981 --> 00:26:57,243
Please,
566
00:26:58,249 --> 00:27:01,275
you have to promise to
keep my name out of this.
567
00:27:05,223 --> 00:27:06,952
We'll do everything we can.
568
00:27:12,297 --> 00:27:13,457
Here's your girl.
569
00:27:13,598 --> 00:27:16,931
Chesley Purcell, 28
and multiple convictions.
570
00:27:17,102 --> 00:27:20,162
Solicitation,
possession with intent,
larceny.
571
00:27:20,305 --> 00:27:22,034
She used to be one of
Marion's party girls.
572
00:27:22,107 --> 00:27:23,131
Where can we find her?
573
00:27:23,208 --> 00:27:27,042
Well, she's on parole from
an assault two. Let's see
what the report says.
574
00:27:27,746 --> 00:27:29,077
Last known...
575
00:27:30,148 --> 00:27:31,342
She's one of yours, bud.
576
00:27:31,683 --> 00:27:33,708
She relocated to Baltimore
eight months ago.
577
00:27:36,221 --> 00:27:37,848
- Police! Don't move!
- Freeze!
578
00:27:37,922 --> 00:27:39,549
Hey, hey, hey!
What'd I do?
What'd I do?
579
00:27:39,624 --> 00:27:41,057
Where is she?
Where's Chesley?
580
00:27:41,126 --> 00:27:42,491
She ain't here!
Don't shoot!
581
00:27:42,560 --> 00:27:44,687
Who are you?
I'm her cousin, Leon.
582
00:27:44,796 --> 00:27:46,696
I came up from Alpharetta
two weeks ago.
583
00:27:46,765 --> 00:27:48,630
Well, cousin Leon,
you better tell me
where she's at.
584
00:27:48,700 --> 00:27:50,600
North. She went to
New York City.
585
00:27:50,669 --> 00:27:53,900
Where? Give me an address.
I don't know an address.
586
00:27:53,972 --> 00:27:56,372
She called me. She had me
put a suitcase on a bus.
587
00:27:56,441 --> 00:27:57,874
When?
Yesterday.
588
00:27:57,942 --> 00:27:59,739
I sent it to the
bus station in New York.
589
00:28:01,312 --> 00:28:03,746
I want extradition papers
drawn up as soon as possible.
590
00:28:03,815 --> 00:28:07,444
The name is Chesley,
with an E-Y, Purcell.
591
00:28:08,119 --> 00:28:09,177
Thanks, Rey.
592
00:28:09,254 --> 00:28:11,154
Yeah, get back to me
as soon as you know,
all right?
593
00:28:12,791 --> 00:28:14,418
Curtis checked with
the bus company.
594
00:28:14,492 --> 00:28:17,359
The suitcase is still at
the Port Authority.
He's got a team sittin' on it.
595
00:28:17,629 --> 00:28:19,426
We need to get
Willington's statement
under oath.
596
00:28:19,497 --> 00:28:20,521
Good.
597
00:28:20,598 --> 00:28:23,192
We need to act
fast and quietly,
598
00:28:24,202 --> 00:28:26,033
before Purcell knows
she's in our sights.
599
00:28:26,137 --> 00:28:28,037
Cousin Leon doesn't know
any of her friends.
600
00:28:28,106 --> 00:28:31,439
But he saw her with a
.38 four days before
McBride was killed.
601
00:28:31,576 --> 00:28:33,237
I want him kept in isolation.
602
00:28:33,712 --> 00:28:36,078
Mike Giardello wants us
to call him and keep him
in the loop.
603
00:28:37,949 --> 00:28:39,974
Lost platoon. Hold on.
604
00:28:40,852 --> 00:28:42,080
It's for you, Counselor.
605
00:28:42,420 --> 00:28:43,444
This is Jack McCoy.
606
00:28:44,956 --> 00:28:46,685
I have a plane
in an hour and a half.
607
00:28:49,494 --> 00:28:51,519
Right. We'll be downstairs.
608
00:28:54,132 --> 00:28:57,329
William Dell,
the Independent Counsel,
wants to see us.
609
00:28:59,304 --> 00:29:01,898
It appears she met
the wrong person in a bar.
610
00:29:03,074 --> 00:29:06,373
The police have identified
the suspect. We expect
an arrest any day.
611
00:29:07,345 --> 00:29:10,542
I am told that you're
relying on a statement
and an identification
612
00:29:10,615 --> 00:29:12,742
by one of
Ms. McBride's friends.
613
00:29:13,218 --> 00:29:14,446
I'd like a look at
that statement.
614
00:29:15,253 --> 00:29:16,242
Why?
615
00:29:16,488 --> 00:29:18,388
It might be relevant
to my investigation.
616
00:29:19,424 --> 00:29:21,688
I'd also appreciate it
if you made
the witness available.
617
00:29:21,893 --> 00:29:24,418
With all due respect,
Mr. Dell, we're not ready
to do that
618
00:29:24,496 --> 00:29:25,963
until the suspect's
in custody.
619
00:29:26,197 --> 00:29:27,858
Mr. Danvers,
I'm trying to be courteous.
620
00:29:28,466 --> 00:29:31,401
You're required to comply
with any request from
an Independent Counsel.
621
00:29:31,469 --> 00:29:35,599
We don't want to run the risk
of compromising
our investigation.
622
00:29:36,407 --> 00:29:40,639
We secured the witness's
cooperation with a promise
to preserve her anonymity.
623
00:29:40,745 --> 00:29:42,542
That's a very
unrealistic promise.
624
00:29:42,614 --> 00:29:43,842
It was ours to make.
625
00:29:44,549 --> 00:29:45,675
We intend to live up to it.
626
00:29:45,817 --> 00:29:47,375
Aren't you charged
with investigating
627
00:29:47,452 --> 00:29:49,920
financial misdealings
by the administration?
628
00:29:50,321 --> 00:29:52,380
How does Janine McBride
figure into that?
629
00:29:52,590 --> 00:29:56,617
The street only runs one way,
Mr. Danvers. You tell me
what you know.
630
00:29:56,928 --> 00:29:59,362
If you're not familiar with
the Independent Counsel
statute...
631
00:29:59,430 --> 00:30:00,590
I know the statute.
632
00:30:01,199 --> 00:30:04,794
I also know about the leaks
of grand jury testimony
from your office.
633
00:30:05,203 --> 00:30:07,364
The Justice Department
is investigating
your investigation.
634
00:30:07,438 --> 00:30:08,427
Mr. McCoy...
635
00:30:08,506 --> 00:30:10,804
Speaking for myself,
I'm not putting
636
00:30:11,009 --> 00:30:15,343
my witness and my murder case
in jeopardy just to
satisfy your curiosity.
637
00:30:15,780 --> 00:30:17,975
I have to follow
Mr. McCoy's lead on this.
638
00:30:18,716 --> 00:30:19,944
Mr. McCoy's lead?
639
00:30:22,253 --> 00:30:23,242
Mr. Lewin.
640
00:30:26,624 --> 00:30:28,717
Your full name is
John James McCoy?
641
00:30:28,960 --> 00:30:29,984
Yes.
642
00:30:37,702 --> 00:30:38,896
What's this?
643
00:30:39,537 --> 00:30:41,596
I'm subpoenaing you
before my grand jury.
644
00:30:47,378 --> 00:30:50,404
You're asking me to quash
the Independent
Counsel's subpoena?
645
00:30:50,815 --> 00:30:54,182
Mr. McCoy, the statute
specifically gives him
646
00:30:54,319 --> 00:30:56,184
unfettered subpoena power.
647
00:30:56,421 --> 00:31:01,415
Except where, quote,
"the interests ofjustice
and privilege may apply. "
648
00:31:02,093 --> 00:31:05,529
Apprehending and convicting
a murderer must take
precedence over whatever it is
649
00:31:05,597 --> 00:31:08,259
Mr. Dell has been
investigating these
last four years.
650
00:31:08,633 --> 00:31:10,123
The Attorney General of
the United States
651
00:31:10,201 --> 00:31:12,362
deems my inquiry to be
in the national interest.
652
00:31:12,537 --> 00:31:16,098
That interest cannot be
superseded by some
parochial concern.
653
00:31:16,307 --> 00:31:19,435
If Janine McBride's murder
is a parochial concern,
654
00:31:19,677 --> 00:31:22,111
why is the Independent Counsel
so interested in it?
655
00:31:22,247 --> 00:31:23,805
That's a question
I don't have to answer.
656
00:31:24,349 --> 00:31:25,338
Mr. McCoy,
657
00:31:26,684 --> 00:31:28,515
I don't see how
giving him what he wants
658
00:31:28,686 --> 00:31:30,051
would imperil
your prosecution.
659
00:31:30,388 --> 00:31:31,821
I can't take the chance of
660
00:31:31,890 --> 00:31:34,586
finding what I tell his
grand jury on the front page
of the Post.
661
00:31:34,659 --> 00:31:36,217
You'll have to, Mr. McCoy.
662
00:31:36,394 --> 00:31:38,225
If you'll allow me,
Your Honor,
I'm not done.
663
00:31:38,429 --> 00:31:40,363
I'm invoking
the work-product privilege.
664
00:31:41,733 --> 00:31:45,328
The documents Mr. Dell wants
were created by me
and Mr. Danvers
665
00:31:45,403 --> 00:31:47,030
in anticipation of a trial.
666
00:31:47,538 --> 00:31:49,529
Two presidents asserted
executive privilege
667
00:31:49,607 --> 00:31:51,734
to defy an independent
counsel's subpoena.
668
00:31:52,143 --> 00:31:53,974
The Supreme Court
shot them down.
669
00:31:54,545 --> 00:31:56,069
Even they had to submit.
670
00:31:56,981 --> 00:31:59,745
Now, is Mr. McCoy placing
his privilege above
the President's?
671
00:31:59,884 --> 00:32:03,547
Only an independent counsel
would be that arrogant,
Mr. Dell.
672
00:32:03,955 --> 00:32:06,924
Your Honor, Mr. McCoy can
avoid appearing before
the grand jury
673
00:32:06,991 --> 00:32:09,050
if he will just turn over
the witness's statement.
674
00:32:09,193 --> 00:32:10,717
That's no choice at all.
675
00:32:12,263 --> 00:32:14,458
From how I read the statute,
it's the only one you have.
676
00:32:16,100 --> 00:32:17,829
Your motion to quash
is denied.
677
00:32:19,237 --> 00:32:21,102
Either you give him
the information he wants,
678
00:32:21,172 --> 00:32:22,833
or you appear before
his grand jury.
679
00:32:23,808 --> 00:32:26,333
I'll look forward to
your decision, Mr. McCoy.
680
00:32:32,116 --> 00:32:33,583
He's already deposed
Jamie Ross
681
00:32:33,651 --> 00:32:35,744
about my run-in with
the Disciplinary Committee.
682
00:32:37,388 --> 00:32:39,754
Now I hear he's deposed
Diane Hawthorne.
683
00:32:39,824 --> 00:32:40,813
Oh, boy.
684
00:32:41,559 --> 00:32:45,017
Someone fill me in here.
Who's Diane Hawthorne?
She was an A.D.A.
685
00:32:45,763 --> 00:32:47,560
I had a relationship with her.
686
00:32:49,300 --> 00:32:52,531
Well, now you know
what Mr. Dell's going to ask
at the grand jury.
687
00:32:52,804 --> 00:32:54,738
He's going to roast
your pistachios.
688
00:32:55,840 --> 00:32:57,068
He's trying to bully me.
689
00:32:57,175 --> 00:33:01,202
And now you know
how it feels to be on
the receiving end.
690
00:33:01,446 --> 00:33:04,643
Except, unlike Mr. Dell
I don't have
unlimited time and money.
691
00:33:04,882 --> 00:33:06,213
I have other cases.
692
00:33:06,317 --> 00:33:09,377
You don't like the
Independent Counsel because
he's independent?
693
00:33:09,520 --> 00:33:11,750
I don't like him lousing up
my murder case.
694
00:33:12,123 --> 00:33:13,488
By giving him what he wants?
695
00:33:13,558 --> 00:33:15,185
I made an agreement
with a witness.
696
00:33:15,360 --> 00:33:16,588
It's not binding.
697
00:33:16,861 --> 00:33:19,887
You're scheduled to go
before the grand jury
day after tomorrow.
698
00:33:20,264 --> 00:33:23,199
What if the police
can't find Miss Purcell
by then?
699
00:33:24,068 --> 00:33:26,764
I'm not answering any question
that'll compromise my case.
700
00:33:29,173 --> 00:33:32,370
Contempt of a
federal grand jury.
Good plan.
701
00:33:32,710 --> 00:33:36,578
I hope for your sake
Miss Purcell shows up
soon for her suitcase.
702
00:33:38,082 --> 00:33:40,175
She claimed it about
twenty minutes ago.
703
00:33:40,251 --> 00:33:42,845
Our team moved in when
they were about to lose her
in the subway.
704
00:33:42,920 --> 00:33:44,478
She won't even
give us her name.
705
00:33:44,622 --> 00:33:46,249
What is she, 12, 13?
706
00:33:46,324 --> 00:33:48,849
Yeah, usual junk
in her pockets.
Gum, subway tokens,
707
00:33:48,926 --> 00:33:51,087
couple of dozen POGs
in a plastic bag.
708
00:33:51,162 --> 00:33:53,824
My kids used to collect them.
Mine still do.
709
00:33:54,065 --> 00:33:56,260
Couple of these
look like they were made
at the corner bodega
710
00:33:56,334 --> 00:33:57,961
for the neighborhood kids.
711
00:33:58,036 --> 00:33:59,162
Oh, great.
712
00:34:00,271 --> 00:34:02,330
You made her cry.
She won't talk.
713
00:34:02,473 --> 00:34:03,963
We can
always wait her out.
714
00:34:04,075 --> 00:34:05,906
Hey, sooner or later,
Purcell's gonna notice
715
00:34:05,977 --> 00:34:07,774
the kid didn't get
back with her suitcase.
716
00:34:08,446 --> 00:34:10,539
Any way to trace the POGs?
Sure.
717
00:34:10,681 --> 00:34:11,875
Could take a day or two.
718
00:34:11,983 --> 00:34:14,679
Better if it takes one.
Jack goes in front of
the grand jury tomorrow.
719
00:34:20,625 --> 00:34:24,254
The eyewitness
saw her with the suspect,
720
00:34:25,163 --> 00:34:27,028
at a club in Washington,
721
00:34:27,799 --> 00:34:29,596
on the night that
she was killed.
722
00:34:32,170 --> 00:34:35,697
Did the police question
anyone at the Council of
Economic Advisors?
723
00:34:36,074 --> 00:34:39,237
Yes. Ms. McBride's
former boss, Judy Palnick.
724
00:34:39,977 --> 00:34:41,706
Any other former colleagues?
725
00:34:42,847 --> 00:34:45,008
Yes. An assistant,
Katherine Raynor.
726
00:34:45,583 --> 00:34:47,915
Ms. Raynor presently works
in the office
727
00:34:47,985 --> 00:34:50,715
of Deputy White House Chief
of Staff Carla Bernardi.
728
00:34:52,256 --> 00:34:54,588
What was the substance of her
statement to the police?
729
00:34:54,826 --> 00:34:58,922
Ms. McBride had been
accused of improper conduct
toward Ms. Raynor.
730
00:34:59,697 --> 00:35:01,995
Ms. Raynor denied
any such conduct occurred.
731
00:35:02,500 --> 00:35:03,524
What kind of conduct?
732
00:35:05,770 --> 00:35:06,998
Sexual harassment.
733
00:35:07,705 --> 00:35:09,570
Was Ms. McBride a lesbian?
734
00:35:11,809 --> 00:35:13,777
Yes, according to
the people who knew her.
735
00:35:14,412 --> 00:35:16,209
Did she have
a relationship
with Ms. Raynor?
736
00:35:16,714 --> 00:35:18,204
Not to our knowledge.
737
00:35:18,416 --> 00:35:20,247
With anyone within
the administration?
738
00:35:20,318 --> 00:35:21,808
Again, not to our knowledge.
739
00:35:21,986 --> 00:35:23,681
With anyone
within the
government?
740
00:35:23,754 --> 00:35:26,120
Mr. Dell, we didn't
make a point of cataloging
741
00:35:26,190 --> 00:35:28,181
Ms. McBride's
sexual encounters.
742
00:35:28,259 --> 00:35:29,726
That's not what I asked.
743
00:35:30,361 --> 00:35:31,692
I'm directing you to answer.
744
00:35:32,630 --> 00:35:35,690
I know what you asked.
I gave you my answer.
745
00:35:41,305 --> 00:35:42,636
At this point, Mr. McCoy,
746
00:35:42,707 --> 00:35:47,110
I remind you that any failure
to answer can be construed as
obstruction ofjustice,
747
00:35:47,278 --> 00:35:50,475
which is an underlying element
to a charge of conspiracy.
748
00:35:52,183 --> 00:35:54,174
I want you to be
clear about that, Mr. McCoy.
749
00:35:56,988 --> 00:35:58,615
Yeah, these four are mine.
750
00:35:59,056 --> 00:36:02,287
Kids come in and buy
$5 worth of candy,
and I give them one.
751
00:36:02,793 --> 00:36:04,385
My wife came up
with that idea.
752
00:36:04,562 --> 00:36:06,154
This girl ever buy
candy from you?
753
00:36:06,364 --> 00:36:09,800
Yeah. Yeah, I recognize her.
Her name's Ashley.
754
00:36:10,268 --> 00:36:11,667
I don't know her family name.
755
00:36:12,270 --> 00:36:14,500
She's okay, isn't she?
She's fine.
756
00:36:14,639 --> 00:36:16,231
You know where she lives?
Yeah.
757
00:36:16,307 --> 00:36:18,741
Building over on 144th
with an aunt.
758
00:36:19,143 --> 00:36:20,405
Sometimes an uncle.
759
00:36:20,945 --> 00:36:22,537
Lot of people
coming and going.
760
00:36:22,813 --> 00:36:24,872
I hear it's mostly pipeheads.
761
00:36:24,949 --> 00:36:27,816
She ever mention anybody from
out of town staying with them?
762
00:36:27,885 --> 00:36:29,250
Somebody from Baltimore?
763
00:36:29,954 --> 00:36:34,982
No. But a few days ago,
she came in asking for
a six-pack of Natty Boh.
764
00:36:35,359 --> 00:36:36,724
I told her we don't carry it.
765
00:36:36,794 --> 00:36:39,160
National Bohemian.
That beer from Baltimore.
766
00:36:39,630 --> 00:36:40,688
Thanks.
767
00:36:40,765 --> 00:36:42,699
Since the suspect
is still at large,
768
00:36:42,767 --> 00:36:45,827
I must respectfully decline
to answer your question.
769
00:36:46,337 --> 00:36:48,464
Can you at least tell us
if the suspect is a
770
00:36:48,539 --> 00:36:51,474
current or former employee of
any branch of the government?
771
00:36:51,676 --> 00:36:54,236
No. Not so far as we've been
able to determine.
772
00:36:54,946 --> 00:36:57,574
This eyewitness
who identified the suspect,
773
00:36:57,715 --> 00:37:01,151
are they a current or former
employee of any branch
of the government?
774
00:37:01,919 --> 00:37:03,181
A current employee.
775
00:37:03,788 --> 00:37:07,690
Please name the witness and
describe the specifics of
their statement to the police.
776
00:37:08,559 --> 00:37:10,686
For the reasons that
I have given before,
777
00:37:11,429 --> 00:37:14,887
and with all due respect to
the grand jurors, I'm not
going to answer that.
778
00:37:15,166 --> 00:37:18,897
Mr. McCoy, Judge Chilvers
of the DC Circuit ordered you
to answer my questions.
779
00:37:18,970 --> 00:37:21,564
She ordered me to
appear before the grand jury.
780
00:37:22,573 --> 00:37:23,801
I made a deal
781
00:37:24,175 --> 00:37:26,200
to preserve my
witness's anonymity.
782
00:37:26,277 --> 00:37:29,144
I see no compelling reason to
go back on my word.
783
00:37:29,213 --> 00:37:31,204
I'm sure the
grand jurors understand
784
00:37:31,682 --> 00:37:35,118
that prosecutors must honor
agreements with witnesses.
785
00:37:35,186 --> 00:37:37,814
I didn't allow you
to make a statement,
Mr. McCoy.
786
00:37:38,256 --> 00:37:40,952
I ask you again.
I already gave you my answer!
787
00:37:43,527 --> 00:37:45,654
Mr. McCoy,
what are you hiding?
Nothing.
788
00:37:45,763 --> 00:37:47,924
I'm simply trying to
discharge my duties
789
00:37:48,065 --> 00:37:50,033
as a prosecutor
for New York County.
790
00:37:50,101 --> 00:37:51,090
Your duties?
791
00:37:53,070 --> 00:37:54,731
Mr. McCoy, weren't you called
792
00:37:54,905 --> 00:37:58,898
before the Disciplinary
Committee of the New York
Bar Association
793
00:37:59,443 --> 00:38:02,310
for withholding a witness
statement in a murder case?
794
00:38:03,281 --> 00:38:06,375
I ultimately offered
that statement at trial.
795
00:38:06,484 --> 00:38:07,610
That wasn't my question.
796
00:38:08,753 --> 00:38:11,153
Yes, I appeared before
the Disciplinary Committee.
797
00:38:11,255 --> 00:38:14,747
Isn't it true a fellow A.D.A.,
Diane Hawthorne,
798
00:38:14,892 --> 00:38:19,829
illegally withheld
exculpatory evidence in a case
you were both prosecuting
799
00:38:19,964 --> 00:38:22,057
which led to the conviction
of an innocent man?
800
00:38:22,199 --> 00:38:24,099
Yes. I had no knowledge
of that, and furthermore...
801
00:38:24,168 --> 00:38:26,659
This A.D.A. was
one of your lovers,
isn't that right?
802
00:38:26,971 --> 00:38:28,097
Now, you just hold on.
803
00:38:28,506 --> 00:38:30,474
A simple yes or no, Mr. McCoy.
804
00:38:30,574 --> 00:38:32,542
I can't see
any possible relevance...
805
00:38:32,610 --> 00:38:35,773
I see in your record
a disturbing pattern
of perjury,
806
00:38:35,880 --> 00:38:38,348
contempt of court,
obstruction ofjustice.
807
00:38:40,117 --> 00:38:41,277
I want to know
808
00:38:41,919 --> 00:38:44,786
what it is you're hiding,
Mr. McCoy, and why.
809
00:38:45,356 --> 00:38:47,790
I answered that.
Not to my satisfaction.
810
00:38:50,227 --> 00:38:53,526
One of the principal
investigators in
Janine McBride's murder is
811
00:38:53,597 --> 00:38:56,191
Detective Leonard Briscoe,
is that right?
Yes.
812
00:38:56,334 --> 00:38:59,667
The same Detective Briscoe
who was investigated by
the Hellman Commission
813
00:38:59,837 --> 00:39:01,964
for destroying evidence
in a drug case?
814
00:39:02,073 --> 00:39:04,132
Why don't you tell
the grand jury he was
cleared of that?
815
00:39:04,208 --> 00:39:05,971
Just a moment, Mr. McCoy.
816
00:39:06,577 --> 00:39:10,343
And whose daughter was
murdered after testifying in
the trial of a drug dealer?
817
00:39:10,915 --> 00:39:14,407
What are you insinuating?
His involvement in this case
818
00:39:14,885 --> 00:39:18,412
raises serious concerns
about the integrity
of your investigation.
819
00:39:18,489 --> 00:39:20,423
Detective Briscoe
is above reproach.
820
00:39:20,491 --> 00:39:22,322
You're hardly
an impartial witness.
821
00:39:23,794 --> 00:39:25,284
Wasn't he a passenger
822
00:39:25,563 --> 00:39:29,090
in a car driven by another
one of your lovers at
the D.A.'s office
823
00:39:29,166 --> 00:39:30,428
when she was killed?
824
00:39:30,868 --> 00:39:32,529
Wasn't he drunk at the time?
825
00:39:34,004 --> 00:39:36,438
The accident report
indicates that he was.
826
00:39:39,610 --> 00:39:41,510
Now, one last time, Mr. McCoy,
827
00:39:42,179 --> 00:39:43,976
what is the name
of your witness,
828
00:39:44,248 --> 00:39:46,113
and what did they
tell the police?
829
00:39:50,855 --> 00:39:53,085
Mr. Dell, have you no shame?
830
00:39:55,793 --> 00:39:57,420
Have you no shame?
831
00:40:01,232 --> 00:40:04,759
What I have is little patience
for people who stonewall me.
832
00:40:05,503 --> 00:40:06,993
I direct you to answer.
833
00:40:10,174 --> 00:40:11,163
Mr. McCoy?
834
00:40:11,642 --> 00:40:14,839
I'm going back to New York,
Mr. Dell. I've got work to do.
835
00:40:17,481 --> 00:40:20,348
Officer, place this man
in custody.
836
00:40:27,691 --> 00:40:29,318
All right, freeze!
Police!
837
00:40:29,427 --> 00:40:30,485
Freeze!
838
00:40:31,429 --> 00:40:33,124
All right, all right.
Cuff her feet.
839
00:40:33,898 --> 00:40:35,388
Take it easy.
I got her.
840
00:40:36,333 --> 00:40:38,927
Ah... Here's what
she was going for.
841
00:40:39,970 --> 00:40:41,801
You're one bad girl,
Chesley.
842
00:40:43,441 --> 00:40:47,241
I am quite prepared to
cite you, Mr. McCoy, unless
you answer his questions.
843
00:40:47,478 --> 00:40:50,709
I'm sorry, Your Honor.
There's no legitimate basis
for his questions.
844
00:40:50,915 --> 00:40:52,473
Mr. Dell isn't
searching for truth,
845
00:40:52,583 --> 00:40:54,278
he's trading in
character assassination.
846
00:40:54,385 --> 00:40:56,580
Your Honor, I'm going to
seek charges against Mr. McCoy
847
00:40:56,654 --> 00:41:00,715
for obstruction ofjustice
and conspiracy to obstruct.
I want him held.
848
00:41:02,693 --> 00:41:03,682
Mr. McCoy,
849
00:41:04,261 --> 00:41:06,695
you are putting me
in a very difficult situation.
850
00:41:07,865 --> 00:41:10,390
Yes?
A Ms. Carmichael called
from Mr. McCoy's office.
851
00:41:10,468 --> 00:41:12,527
She insisted I give you
this message.
852
00:41:16,006 --> 00:41:18,702
Your Honor, I'm ready
to answer one of
Mr. Dell's questions.
853
00:41:19,777 --> 00:41:22,007
The suspect is in custody.
Her name is Chesley Purcell.
854
00:41:22,079 --> 00:41:23,876
She's being held
for interrogation.
855
00:41:24,849 --> 00:41:28,182
That's not good enough,
Your Honor. I want the name
of the witness.
856
00:41:28,252 --> 00:41:30,686
What can the witness give you
that the suspect can't?
857
00:41:31,989 --> 00:41:34,423
I'm going to reserve decision
on the contempt charges.
858
00:41:35,926 --> 00:41:37,359
You may go, Mr. McCoy.
859
00:41:39,163 --> 00:41:40,323
Thank you, Your Honor.
860
00:41:44,702 --> 00:41:46,863
We have hair
and fiber evidence
from McBride's car,
861
00:41:46,937 --> 00:41:50,338
we have McBride's credit cards
in your apartment,
and we have eyewitnesses.
862
00:41:50,941 --> 00:41:53,239
You're facing charges
in two jurisdictions, honey.
863
00:41:53,344 --> 00:41:56,211
Not to mention
the attempted murder
of a police officer.
864
00:41:56,280 --> 00:41:58,441
That's what you get
on the play for the shotgun.
865
00:41:58,782 --> 00:42:00,716
Your only choice is
to make a statement,
866
00:42:01,752 --> 00:42:03,242
and cut the best deal you can.
867
00:42:05,189 --> 00:42:07,157
Can you get them to
open up a window?
868
00:42:07,791 --> 00:42:09,884
All these dicks
are stinking up the room.
869
00:42:10,361 --> 00:42:11,589
If I were you,
870
00:42:12,396 --> 00:42:15,729
I'd get that attitude out of
your ears and listen to
what the man has to offer you.
871
00:42:17,468 --> 00:42:19,936
Aren't you some tall,
cool glass of lemonade.
872
00:42:20,905 --> 00:42:22,429
How'd I miss you in Balto?
873
00:42:22,740 --> 00:42:24,264
What kind of deal
are you talking about?
874
00:42:25,142 --> 00:42:27,303
We make the attempted
murder go away.
875
00:42:28,178 --> 00:42:29,839
She does twenty-to-life
for the murder.
876
00:42:30,080 --> 00:42:31,069
I want a card.
877
00:42:32,550 --> 00:42:35,576
A get-out-of-jail-free card.
878
00:42:37,621 --> 00:42:39,521
Jack. Mr. Danvers.
879
00:42:45,429 --> 00:42:47,158
These gentlemen are
with the FBl.
880
00:42:47,498 --> 00:42:50,262
They've been sent here by
the office of
the Independent Counsel.
881
00:42:53,437 --> 00:42:55,598
Dell's asserting
jurisdiction
over the case.
882
00:42:56,307 --> 00:42:59,140
He got a federal court order
to bring Purcell
back to Washington.
883
00:42:59,276 --> 00:43:01,870
What are they going to do,
spirit her out of the country?
884
00:43:01,979 --> 00:43:03,810
He's claiming her
as a witness.
885
00:43:03,914 --> 00:43:05,939
He means to put her
in front of his grand jury.
886
00:43:07,851 --> 00:43:11,287
The only way he gets her
to talk is with
an offer of immunity.
887
00:43:11,989 --> 00:43:13,786
Meaning we won't be
able to touch her.
888
00:43:14,291 --> 00:43:15,383
She's a witness to what?
889
00:43:15,859 --> 00:43:18,293
I read the
supporting affidavits
to the court order.
890
00:43:18,529 --> 00:43:21,930
Dell claims Purcell has
damaging information
about McBride's
891
00:43:21,999 --> 00:43:26,436
relations with various
prominent government figures,
including Fay Willington.
892
00:43:26,870 --> 00:43:28,735
How the hell did he find out
about Fay Willington?
893
00:43:29,406 --> 00:43:32,500
An FBI source.
Agent Michael Giardello.
894
00:43:33,043 --> 00:43:35,068
Dell has a court order.
You can't ignore it.
895
00:43:35,879 --> 00:43:39,975
Let him take Purcell.
In the morning,
you find a judge and appeal.
896
00:43:40,584 --> 00:43:41,778
Best that you can do.
897
00:43:50,227 --> 00:43:52,752
I pity those guys.
That lady's gonna
curl their shorts.
898
00:43:56,467 --> 00:43:57,491
Call the paramedics!
899
00:44:01,271 --> 00:44:03,364
Forget it. She's dead.
900
00:44:05,009 --> 00:44:06,909
She took Janine away from me.
901
00:44:07,277 --> 00:44:09,768
She took her from me!
Come on, let's go.
902
00:44:10,948 --> 00:44:12,973
We talked with
Janine McBride's parents.
903
00:44:13,050 --> 00:44:15,712
They got a call yesterday
from a reporter at the Post
904
00:44:15,786 --> 00:44:18,584
to get their reaction to
the capture of their
daughter's killer.
905
00:44:18,922 --> 00:44:21,857
Apparently this reporter
also talked to Ned Burks.
906
00:44:22,292 --> 00:44:25,591
And the reporter tipped off
Burks that Purcell
was being held here.
907
00:44:25,929 --> 00:44:27,089
What does Mr. Burks say?
908
00:44:27,297 --> 00:44:29,128
All-in-all, he's pretty
pleased with himself.
909
00:44:29,433 --> 00:44:31,094
Yeah, the Post
will be happy, too.
910
00:44:31,568 --> 00:44:35,060
Caspar Milquetoast kills
Ms. Goodbar. Nice and simple.
911
00:44:36,140 --> 00:44:37,437
Wraps up
our end of it.
912
00:44:37,775 --> 00:44:39,970
This one's definitely
in your ballpark, Jack.
913
00:44:40,044 --> 00:44:41,773
Chesley Purcell
got one break.
914
00:44:41,845 --> 00:44:42,869
How's that?
915
00:44:42,946 --> 00:44:45,176
She won't have to
sit in the same room
with William Dell.
