¶ ¶
2
00:00:40,341 --> 00:00:43,926
- And we have a choice.
3
00:00:43,927 --> 00:00:47,512
Are we going to allow the
system to perpetuate a lie,
4
00:00:47,515 --> 00:00:49,482
or are we going
to get educated--
5
00:00:49,483 --> 00:00:51,450
- Trayvon Martin case and all
these big high-profile cases--
6
00:00:51,451 --> 00:00:53,418
- And you believe the jails
are filled
7
00:00:53,421 --> 00:00:55,176
with people that do nothing.
8
00:00:55,177 --> 00:00:56,932
You think everybody's
innocent?
9
00:00:56,933 --> 00:00:58,688
- Two young men who had
bright, promising futures.
10
00:00:58,692 --> 00:01:00,515
- Kholi Styles,
Brian Sudermill.
11
00:01:00,516 --> 00:01:02,339
- So where do we stand when it
comes to privilege in America?
12
00:01:02,340 --> 00:01:04,163
- We are so marginalized
as a people.
13
00:01:04,165 --> 00:01:05,921
- There are people dying in
my neighborhood every day.
14
00:01:05,922 --> 00:01:07,678
- Find your place of truth.
15
00:01:07,679 --> 00:01:09,435
- ...criminalized, they are
sometimes victimized,
16
00:01:09,437 --> 00:01:12,338
almost in--
17
00:01:12,339 --> 00:01:15,240
- Other minorities do not get
the news coverage.
18
00:01:15,242 --> 00:01:16,742
- I want to open the phones.
Let's talk this out.
19
00:01:16,744 --> 00:01:19,111
I'm calling for comp.
20
00:01:19,112 --> 00:01:21,479
- 107.5 WGCI, you are live
with Kendra G.
21
00:01:21,482 --> 00:01:23,348
- Call us right now,
866-9-RICKEY,
22
00:01:23,350 --> 00:01:25,851
866-9-RICKEY,
"Rickey Smiley Morning Show."
23
00:01:25,853 --> 00:01:27,586
- What's up? It's Angela Yee,
24
00:01:27,588 --> 00:01:30,055
and we are back
on "The Breakfast Club."
25
00:01:30,056 --> 00:01:32,523
- So what is it we're really
talking about, race, prejudice?
26
00:01:32,526 --> 00:01:34,501
- The fact that we're talking
about race
27
00:01:34,502 --> 00:01:36,477
is indicative of the prejudice
by inheritance.
28
00:01:36,478 --> 00:01:38,453
- The prison system is really
29
00:01:38,454 --> 00:01:40,429
one of the biggest businesses
in America today.
30
00:01:40,434 --> 00:01:42,334
- All right,
black lives matter, yes.
31
00:01:42,336 --> 00:01:45,104
Latino lives matter too.
Asian lives matter.
32
00:01:45,106 --> 00:01:47,106
Indian lives matter.
Muslim lives matter.
33
00:01:47,108 --> 00:01:49,241
- So everything's got to be
about race all the time
34
00:01:49,243 --> 00:01:50,509
'cause it sells the news.
35
00:01:50,511 --> 00:01:52,111
It sells
to the community leaders.
36
00:01:52,113 --> 00:01:54,113
- Stereotypes are real.
- Yeah, they are.
37
00:01:54,115 --> 00:01:55,514
- For a reason.
38
00:01:55,516 --> 00:01:57,082
- They're not made up out
of thin air.
39
00:01:57,083 --> 00:01:58,649
- Everyone, of course,
has strong opinions
40
00:01:58,652 --> 00:02:00,385
on one side or the other,
41
00:02:00,387 --> 00:02:03,272
but if we're gonna really
grow as a community,
42
00:02:03,273 --> 00:02:06,158
as a society, we need to start
listening to all perspectives.
43
00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:08,193
You want to go downtown...
44
00:02:08,195 --> 00:02:09,595
- Compared to a Caucasian
person,
45
00:02:09,597 --> 00:02:11,130
you always have to prove
if you're there.
46
00:02:11,131 --> 00:02:12,664
They never want
to believe you on face value.
47
00:02:14,490 --> 00:02:16,313
- Oh, you supposed
to be innocent
48
00:02:16,314 --> 00:02:18,137
until you're proven guilty, but
apparently that ain't the case.
49
00:02:18,139 --> 00:02:19,705
- We can't just talk
about race. We can't just
50
00:02:19,706 --> 00:02:21,272
talk about prejudice.
- Well, you have the story
51
00:02:21,273 --> 00:02:22,839
that the mainstream media's
gonna say anyway.
52
00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:24,406
- And I think the cops have
a right to be suspicious.
53
00:02:24,411 --> 00:02:26,111
I get it. I get it.
54
00:02:26,112 --> 00:02:27,812
- Attorney Jackie Styles.
I'm his attorney.
55
00:02:27,815 --> 00:02:29,848
- Murderer!
- I don't trust them.
56
00:02:29,850 --> 00:02:32,151
I ain't pulling over for no cop
unless there's witnesses.
57
00:02:32,153 --> 00:02:33,886
- We have another opportunity
to hype up
58
00:02:33,888 --> 00:02:36,688
a black and white dispute and
make the black kid look bad.
59
00:02:36,690 --> 00:02:38,624
- Whether you're black
or white,
60
00:02:38,626 --> 00:02:41,426
whether you're Christian
or Muslim,
61
00:02:41,428 --> 00:02:44,630
we are all one big family.
62
00:02:44,631 --> 00:02:47,833
- Chicago, the whole world is
watching us right now.
63
00:02:56,377 --> 00:03:03,215
¶ ¶
64
00:03:03,217 --> 00:03:05,651
- ¶ Truth be told,
I'm having a foul week ¶
65
00:03:05,653 --> 00:03:07,819
¶ I'm prayin' for a miracle
now, Canal Street ¶
66
00:03:07,821 --> 00:03:10,889
¶ I can't move,
I can't move ¶
67
00:03:10,890 --> 00:03:13,958
Freeze, rich boy!
Ah, he's so scared.
68
00:03:13,961 --> 00:03:15,627
Yo, you got all that money now,
69
00:03:15,629 --> 00:03:16,795
you got to show
some love, brother.
70
00:03:16,797 --> 00:03:18,697
- Yo, man, get in.
71
00:03:18,698 --> 00:03:20,598
- You can't be playing
like that, Joe. Is that loaded?
72
00:03:20,601 --> 00:03:22,201
- Yeah, it's loaded, man.
Get in.
73
00:03:22,203 --> 00:03:23,969
- What's up, man?
74
00:03:23,970 --> 00:03:25,736
- You were scared, weren't you?
- He was shaking in his boots.
75
00:03:25,739 --> 00:03:28,240
- Yo, so I guess today
your last day off.
76
00:03:28,242 --> 00:03:30,859
- Yeah, unless my dad
change his mind.
77
00:03:30,860 --> 00:03:33,477
- Hey, man, you really leaving
to go for the higher life, bro.
78
00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:35,714
Like, get a good look at what
you leaving behind, man.
79
00:03:35,716 --> 00:03:39,785
- Talk to him, man. Look at it.
See it?
80
00:03:39,787 --> 00:03:42,921
- What am I missing?
- Everything.
81
00:03:51,698 --> 00:03:53,698
- Come on, G.
We got to go to class, man.
82
00:03:53,701 --> 00:03:55,801
- Okay, man, relax.
83
00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:01,307
Another one, man?
84
00:04:01,308 --> 00:04:02,975
- Relax, everybody.
Frank, please.
85
00:04:02,976 --> 00:04:04,643
- Why you got two phones
and no minutes, G?
86
00:04:04,645 --> 00:04:07,346
- One for my girls and one
for Frank's mom.
87
00:04:09,250 --> 00:04:10,382
- Come on, hurry up.
88
00:04:10,384 --> 00:04:12,351
- Okay.
- Hurry up.
89
00:04:14,521 --> 00:04:17,256
- You are an interesting
brother, Mr. Styles.
90
00:04:17,258 --> 00:04:18,957
I'm told a lot of good
things--
91
00:04:18,959 --> 00:04:21,426
confident, outspoken,
professional.
92
00:04:21,428 --> 00:04:23,729
- All lies. I'm terrible.
93
00:04:23,731 --> 00:04:26,732
Confident but not cocky,
94
00:04:26,734 --> 00:04:29,668
I like that,
but my question to you is,
95
00:04:29,670 --> 00:04:33,939
does Jackie Styles
know when to get mean?
96
00:04:34,541 --> 00:04:38,543
- If by mean you mean tough,
my record shows I do.
97
00:04:38,545 --> 00:04:40,512
- Okay, no worries then,
tough guy.
98
00:04:41,282 --> 00:04:42,948
How's a salary of 120,000
per year
99
00:04:42,950 --> 00:04:45,517
plus a 50,000
signing bonus sound?
100
00:04:47,554 --> 00:04:49,521
- 250 plus 50.
101
00:04:50,291 --> 00:04:52,324
Oh, he is tough, okay.
102
00:04:52,326 --> 00:04:56,595
Okay, well, then I guess we'll
just have to settle on 100.
103
00:04:57,464 --> 00:05:00,365
- 120 plus 50 it is.
104
00:05:00,367 --> 00:05:03,535
- 120 plus 50 it is,
and welcome to the team.
105
00:05:04,772 --> 00:05:07,072
- Hi, I'm A.J. Canton.
106
00:05:07,074 --> 00:05:08,974
For seven years
I've served the county
107
00:05:08,976 --> 00:05:10,942
as an assistant
state's attorney.
108
00:05:10,944 --> 00:05:13,078
I've put countless
criminals behind bars
109
00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:14,980
and helped clean up
our streets,
110
00:05:14,982 --> 00:05:17,716
but now I need your help
with my next challenge:
111
00:05:17,718 --> 00:05:19,618
cleaning up the mayor's office.
112
00:05:19,620 --> 00:05:22,054
It's time to set
those old politics aside
113
00:05:22,056 --> 00:05:25,324
and give this city
the fresh start it deserves.
114
00:05:25,326 --> 00:05:28,593
This fall vote Canton.
Thank you.
115
00:05:28,996 --> 00:05:32,331
- And cut. All right, good.
Wrap for lunch.
116
00:05:32,333 --> 00:05:33,732
- So? Talk to me.
117
00:05:33,734 --> 00:05:35,400
- A little antiquated,
don't you think?
118
00:05:35,402 --> 00:05:37,869
- No, no, no, simple and
to the point, no flash.
119
00:05:37,871 --> 00:05:39,638
We just run it a million times.
120
00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:41,557
People will see
that I'm genuine.
121
00:05:41,558 --> 00:05:43,475
- Sure, works for me.
If you have a moment,
122
00:05:43,477 --> 00:05:46,044
Mr. Abernathy from the
city council is holding on two.
123
00:05:46,046 --> 00:05:48,480
- Not a problem,
but do me a favor.
124
00:05:48,482 --> 00:05:51,750
Transfer that call to my cell.
It's about that time.
125
00:05:51,752 --> 00:05:54,353
Got to get my first-time
Barack on.
126
00:05:54,355 --> 00:05:56,955
- Today we're gonna be
continuing the conversation,
127
00:05:56,957 --> 00:06:00,559
except this time
about the, uh--the genotype.
128
00:06:00,894 --> 00:06:03,061
Now, what's fascinating
about genetics is what...
129
00:06:03,063 --> 00:06:05,664
- Yo, you need us
to help you out tonight?
130
00:06:05,666 --> 00:06:07,099
- Nah, man, it's straight.
131
00:06:07,101 --> 00:06:09,000
I'm pretty much done
with all the boxes.
132
00:06:09,002 --> 00:06:11,002
We ain't got as much
as he is anyway.
133
00:06:11,004 --> 00:06:14,039
- Good, 'cause I wasn't trying
to help you out anyway.
134
00:06:15,075 --> 00:06:18,910
Look, man, I don't know why
you just don't stay here, bro.
135
00:06:18,912 --> 00:06:22,514
Grab a spot.
Find a easy.
136
00:06:22,516 --> 00:06:24,082
- Tell that to my pops.
- Brown eyes.
137
00:06:24,084 --> 00:06:26,051
Does anybody here
have brown eyes?
138
00:06:26,053 --> 00:06:28,153
Can anybody--anybody--
139
00:06:29,623 --> 00:06:31,957
- Just as long as you're there
on time.
140
00:06:31,959 --> 00:06:33,525
Well, I'm having dinner
ready by 6:00.
141
00:06:33,527 --> 00:06:36,395
Just be home by then, okay?
Bye, boy.
142
00:06:36,397 --> 00:06:38,097
- Kholi?
143
00:06:38,098 --> 00:06:39,798
- Yeah, boy got me
fried chicken.
144
00:06:39,799 --> 00:06:41,499
- Oh, the weather's definitely
changing, brother.
145
00:06:41,502 --> 00:06:43,001
Outside of the Starbucks
and the pools
146
00:06:43,003 --> 00:06:44,770
just popping up all over
the place,
147
00:06:44,771 --> 00:06:46,538
this community has definitely
benefitted from you.
148
00:06:46,540 --> 00:06:48,774
- Well, we've done enough
to tear it down.
149
00:06:48,776 --> 00:06:50,675
May as well just
build it right back up.
150
00:06:50,677 --> 00:06:52,544
- Obviously that is very true,
151
00:06:52,546 --> 00:06:54,546
but we sure got much more
to do though.
152
00:06:54,548 --> 00:06:56,114
Now, when you coming
back to church?
153
00:06:56,116 --> 00:06:58,450
- Who, me?
- No, me. You.
154
00:07:03,457 --> 00:07:05,557
- Oof.
- I'm just happy I could help.
155
00:07:05,559 --> 00:07:08,059
- Thank you, Lord,
but thank you, Jay.
156
00:07:08,061 --> 00:07:11,430
Thanks for getting
the church squared away,
157
00:07:11,432 --> 00:07:13,932
but hey, you wouldn't
want to forget this.
158
00:07:13,934 --> 00:07:18,837
- Ooh. Absolutely.
- Love you, man. Thank you.
159
00:07:18,839 --> 00:07:20,138
- Love you right back.
- Come on, now.
160
00:07:20,140 --> 00:07:21,706
- Love you back.
- All right, now.
161
00:07:21,708 --> 00:07:23,675
- All right. Yes, sir.
- Jackie!
162
00:07:23,677 --> 00:07:24,943
- Sir!
- Jackie!
163
00:07:24,945 --> 00:07:26,978
Sir!
164
00:07:26,980 --> 00:07:30,749
- Jackie. Mm, Jesus, thank you.
165
00:07:36,590 --> 00:07:39,458
- Hey. So we still
got the hardwood floors.
166
00:07:39,460 --> 00:07:43,495
We got the nice marble in here.
Now, we are both upstairs.
167
00:07:43,497 --> 00:07:44,796
You gonna be
right down the hall.
168
00:07:44,798 --> 00:07:46,465
I'm in the master bedroom,
169
00:07:46,467 --> 00:07:49,768
but you ain't got to
call me master.
170
00:07:50,938 --> 00:07:53,905
We have our own wings,
bachelor-style, so.
171
00:07:54,508 --> 00:07:57,542
This is home, boy.
This is it.
172
00:08:00,547 --> 00:08:04,850
¶ ¶
173
00:08:04,852 --> 00:08:10,489
¶ May not be there to look in
your eyes ¶
174
00:08:10,491 --> 00:08:13,692
¶ Like I was yesterday ¶
175
00:08:13,694 --> 00:08:16,061
¶ ¶
176
00:08:16,063 --> 00:08:19,631
¶ I see every single
tear you cry ¶
177
00:08:27,875 --> 00:08:32,511
¶ ...close to the water ¶
178
00:08:32,513 --> 00:08:36,848
¶ It can always get to me ¶
179
00:08:36,850 --> 00:08:40,068
¶ ¶
180
00:08:40,069 --> 00:08:43,287
¶ All my love will keep you
moving on ¶
181
00:08:43,290 --> 00:08:46,858
¶ You know I never...
182
00:08:46,860 --> 00:08:50,529
¶ If you just look ¶
183
00:08:50,531 --> 00:08:52,764
¶ Look ¶
184
00:08:52,766 --> 00:08:57,936
¶ Into the horizon ¶
185
00:08:57,938 --> 00:09:01,540
¶ If you just look ¶
186
00:09:01,542 --> 00:09:03,742
¶ Look ¶
187
00:09:06,146 --> 00:09:10,615
¶ Into the horizon ¶
188
00:09:10,617 --> 00:09:17,789
¶ ¶
189
00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:21,793
- You good?
190
00:09:21,795 --> 00:09:24,329
- It's not our home.
It don't feel right.
191
00:09:25,165 --> 00:09:27,699
- Well, how you think
that makes me feel?
192
00:09:27,701 --> 00:09:29,901
I lived in that house
for five years
193
00:09:29,903 --> 00:09:31,870
before you even came along,
194
00:09:31,872 --> 00:09:36,975
but if we keeping your mama
right there--right there--
195
00:09:36,977 --> 00:09:39,611
then we all live here.
196
00:09:40,681 --> 00:09:42,781
I know we moved a long way
from everything we know,
197
00:09:42,783 --> 00:09:47,652
but I might have a little
something up my sleeve here.
198
00:09:47,854 --> 00:09:49,988
You know, your pop might need
a little help getting back
199
00:09:49,990 --> 00:09:52,958
and forth to the south side.
200
00:09:53,293 --> 00:09:55,827
Go over there
and get some Hal's Chicken.
201
00:09:57,764 --> 00:10:00,365
I got something. Come on.
202
00:10:05,639 --> 00:10:09,040
- Where did you get this?
- I got you. Ha, ha!
203
00:10:09,042 --> 00:10:10,709
- This is cool, Dad.
204
00:10:10,711 --> 00:10:12,911
Can I take it for a spin?
- Yeah, absolutely,
205
00:10:12,913 --> 00:10:16,348
and the seats vibrate too, boy,
but don't you get no ideas.
206
00:10:17,050 --> 00:10:19,150
Have fun.
207
00:10:21,755 --> 00:10:26,891
- ¶ My love inside
your heart now ¶
208
00:10:26,893 --> 00:10:32,263
¶ Keep my loving memory ¶
209
00:10:34,368 --> 00:10:36,167
- If you listen to the press,
it's always,
210
00:10:36,169 --> 00:10:38,136
"He's from the south side
of Chicago.
211
00:10:38,138 --> 00:10:39,638
He is--"
But they don't talk about
212
00:10:39,640 --> 00:10:41,673
how he was moved
from the south side
213
00:10:41,675 --> 00:10:43,208
because his father
got a promotion.
214
00:10:43,210 --> 00:10:44,710
- Right.
- I've been around white people
215
00:10:44,711 --> 00:10:46,211
in cars
that have gotten pulled over,
216
00:10:46,213 --> 00:10:48,713
and I could--I
could feel the energy
217
00:10:48,715 --> 00:10:50,682
where the cop is kind of
just hounding me,
218
00:10:50,684 --> 00:10:52,350
"Where's your license?
Where's your registration?
219
00:10:52,352 --> 00:10:54,653
Do you have any criminal
charges in your history?"
220
00:10:54,655 --> 00:10:56,054
- What was he doing
in that neighborhood?
221
00:10:56,056 --> 00:10:57,389
- They just moved
to that neighborhood.
222
00:10:57,390 --> 00:10:58,723
They were new to
the neighborhood,
223
00:10:58,724 --> 00:11:00,057
moved from the inner city.
- Exactly.
224
00:11:00,060 --> 00:11:01,982
- What, you got to
register now?
225
00:11:01,983 --> 00:11:03,905
You got to register when you
move into a new neighborhood?
226
00:11:03,906 --> 00:11:05,828
- He's not a registered sex
offender, exactly, so...
227
00:11:09,936 --> 00:11:16,341
- Turn off the vehicle, sir.
Nice car you got yourself here.
228
00:11:18,211 --> 00:11:19,678
- Thank you.
229
00:11:19,680 --> 00:11:21,112
- Must be new
to the neighborhood.
230
00:11:21,114 --> 00:11:23,214
I know most of my kids
on this beat.
231
00:11:24,418 --> 00:11:26,084
- Yeah, my dad just bought it.
232
00:11:26,086 --> 00:11:28,203
- Mm.
233
00:11:28,204 --> 00:11:30,321
Well, on behalf
of the community,
234
00:11:30,323 --> 00:11:32,957
welcome you to
the neighborhood, hmm?
235
00:11:32,959 --> 00:11:35,093
I'm over on Green Bay Road.
236
00:11:35,094 --> 00:11:37,228
You need anything, you just
give me a holler, 'kay?
237
00:11:37,230 --> 00:11:39,698
Good to see you.
238
00:11:39,700 --> 00:11:43,401
All right, give me some,
right here. Little--yeah.
239
00:11:44,137 --> 00:11:47,472
We did it in football.
You have a good day now.
240
00:12:13,400 --> 00:12:16,434
- Hey, we're about
to have a game. Do you want in?
241
00:12:20,173 --> 00:12:21,823
- Nah, I'm good.
242
00:12:21,824 --> 00:12:23,474
- You make it ten.
We could run full.
243
00:12:23,477 --> 00:12:24,976
- Told you I'm good,
little man.
244
00:12:24,978 --> 00:12:26,511
I'm not even dressed to play.
245
00:12:26,513 --> 00:12:29,013
- Come on. Man, all we're doing
is having some fun.
246
00:12:29,015 --> 00:12:30,882
Who cares what you're wearing?
247
00:12:30,884 --> 00:12:33,017
I mean, if you're scared,
then just say you're scared.
248
00:12:33,019 --> 00:12:35,220
Scared?
249
00:12:35,222 --> 00:12:37,055
- I don't appreciate you
250
00:12:37,056 --> 00:12:38,889
pressuring me
like that, Zac Efron.
251
00:12:41,844 --> 00:12:44,228
It's not like that.
How about just you and me then?
252
00:12:44,231 --> 00:12:45,797
- Don't worry.
253
00:12:45,799 --> 00:12:47,866
I'll sit this one out.
You two have fun.
254
00:12:49,169 --> 00:12:51,102
- I just want to see
what you can do.
255
00:12:51,104 --> 00:12:54,172
- You keep pressuring me,
I'ma show you what I can do.
256
00:12:54,174 --> 00:12:56,407
- Now who's taking this
all wrong?
257
00:12:59,179 --> 00:13:01,780
- I told you I'm good, man.
258
00:13:06,887 --> 00:13:08,970
All right.
259
00:13:08,971 --> 00:13:11,054
- Now, his classmate's name
is Brian Sudermill.
260
00:13:11,057 --> 00:13:12,991
I mean, we've been talking
about this for weeks.
261
00:13:12,993 --> 00:13:14,559
- Yeah.
- I know this.
262
00:13:14,561 --> 00:13:17,362
- Let's go, G.
263
00:13:17,364 --> 00:13:20,465
I got first.
- Your ball, big guy.
264
00:13:20,467 --> 00:13:23,935
- The two of them had got into
a fight one week prior.
265
00:13:23,937 --> 00:13:25,837
Witnesses saw it.
266
00:13:25,839 --> 00:13:27,405
- I think it's pretty obvious
what happened.
267
00:13:27,407 --> 00:13:29,608
- I read somewhere
that these two had beef.
268
00:13:29,609 --> 00:13:31,810
- There was a altercation
between the two of them a week
269
00:13:31,812 --> 00:13:34,112
or so before,
so you--now--
270
00:13:34,114 --> 00:13:36,198
- That was not the case.
271
00:13:38,285 --> 00:13:41,219
¶ Oh, oh ¶
272
00:13:44,891 --> 00:13:47,425
¶ ¶
273
00:13:47,427 --> 00:13:49,227
- If I call 911
274
00:13:49,228 --> 00:13:51,028
and the police come, they
might think that I did it.
275
00:13:51,031 --> 00:13:53,465
- Right.
276
00:13:53,466 --> 00:13:55,900
- I still look suspicious
either way.
277
00:13:55,902 --> 00:13:57,569
¶ ¶
278
00:13:57,571 --> 00:13:59,471
- You want me to teach you
how to play?
279
00:13:59,472 --> 00:14:01,372
- I don't think there's any
controversy here.
280
00:14:01,374 --> 00:14:03,708
They had been fighting.
281
00:14:03,709 --> 00:14:06,043
Emotions got out of control,
which will happen, and boom,
282
00:14:06,046 --> 00:14:09,614
you've got--you've got
this Brian Sudermill kid dead.
283
00:14:11,985 --> 00:14:14,452
- Well, who killed Brian?
'Cause if you think about it,
284
00:14:14,454 --> 00:14:17,288
we've seen some cases
in the past where it--
285
00:14:17,290 --> 00:14:21,059
- They should look into Brian's
past and his parents' past.
286
00:14:28,134 --> 00:14:29,868
- See you around, South Side.
287
00:14:32,873 --> 00:14:36,107
- South Side.
288
00:14:39,646 --> 00:14:43,014
- Hey.
Don't let him get to you.
289
00:14:48,555 --> 00:14:50,188
I'm Zoey.
290
00:14:53,460 --> 00:14:55,460
It's your choice, killer.
291
00:14:57,497 --> 00:15:00,899
- I'm Kholi.
- You live around here?
292
00:15:01,501 --> 00:15:03,234
- I live here now.
293
00:15:03,236 --> 00:15:08,606
- Man, he really messed you up.
You should get that looked at.
294
00:15:09,442 --> 00:15:11,910
There's a coffee shop
around the corner.
295
00:15:12,445 --> 00:15:16,080
- You want to buy me coffee?
- You're cute.
296
00:15:16,449 --> 00:15:18,216
No, getting you some ice.
297
00:15:21,488 --> 00:15:23,621
You coming or what?
298
00:15:28,561 --> 00:15:31,229
- ¶ I know this road
is getting hard ¶
299
00:15:31,231 --> 00:15:34,699
¶ I heard you say it's
overwhelming ¶
300
00:15:34,701 --> 00:15:37,201
¶ I said I'd never be
too far ¶
301
00:15:37,203 --> 00:15:41,072
¶ And I meant that
from the heart ¶
302
00:15:41,074 --> 00:15:44,208
¶ I see the mountain
getting higher ¶
303
00:15:44,210 --> 00:15:47,445
¶ I see it stacking up
against you ¶
304
00:15:47,447 --> 00:15:50,181
¶ I always said you
were a fighter ¶
305
00:15:50,183 --> 00:15:53,384
¶ But you've got your doubts
tonight ¶
306
00:15:53,386 --> 00:15:55,687
¶ But I'm here to remind you ¶
307
00:15:55,689 --> 00:15:59,490
¶ It don't matter where
you come from ¶
308
00:15:59,492 --> 00:16:02,360
¶ I know we can get
through this ¶
309
00:16:02,362 --> 00:16:05,563
¶ It might feel like it's
been so long ¶
310
00:16:05,565 --> 00:16:07,598
¶ But we keep on keeping on ¶
311
00:16:07,600 --> 00:16:11,636
- ¶ Still I had a reason
to ask why ¶
312
00:16:11,638 --> 00:16:16,474
¶ Why she cut me off
the chain and let me fly ¶
313
00:16:16,476 --> 00:16:21,512
¶ And no, I'm not
gonna be the one to say ¶
314
00:16:21,514 --> 00:16:26,084
¶ That we could have had it
any other way ¶
315
00:16:26,086 --> 00:16:30,121
¶ So I'll keep running
from what I called upon ¶
316
00:16:30,123 --> 00:16:34,759
¶ This loving
from which I can move on ¶
317
00:16:34,761 --> 00:16:39,430
¶ And yes, I know she will
keep me from the rain ¶
318
00:16:39,432 --> 00:16:45,770
¶ When the sun comes out,
I'll be back again for you ¶
319
00:16:49,743 --> 00:16:53,177
- All right.
Everybody find a seat.
320
00:17:01,554 --> 00:17:05,023
Okay, everybody,
go ahead and get settled in.
321
00:17:05,291 --> 00:17:06,507
Get everything cleaned.
322
00:17:06,508 --> 00:17:07,724
- What do you think
you're doing?
323
00:17:07,727 --> 00:17:10,595
- I sit here. It's my seat.
324
00:17:10,597 --> 00:17:12,697
- I see your lip
is healing up nicely.
325
00:17:12,699 --> 00:17:14,365
- I see if you want to try
another cheap shot,
326
00:17:14,367 --> 00:17:16,567
I'm right here.
327
00:17:16,569 --> 00:17:19,037
- You got balls, son.
328
00:17:19,039 --> 00:17:20,705
So you a drug dealer
or something?
329
00:17:20,707 --> 00:17:22,640
- One might find
that offensive.
330
00:17:22,642 --> 00:17:26,310
I'm not a drug dealer.
I'm a classical violinist.
331
00:17:26,312 --> 00:17:28,579
- No way.
- Heck, no.
332
00:17:28,581 --> 00:17:30,214
- Biggie or Tupac?
333
00:17:30,216 --> 00:17:32,116
- The Rolling Stones
or the Beatles?
334
00:17:32,118 --> 00:17:33,401
You sound racist.
335
00:17:33,402 --> 00:17:34,685
- I know about rap music.
- ...okay, wonderful.
336
00:17:34,687 --> 00:17:36,437
- What do you drive?
337
00:17:36,438 --> 00:17:38,188
- Go ahead and pull out your
music piece from last week.
338
00:17:38,191 --> 00:17:39,858
- BMW 325ci.
339
00:17:39,859 --> 00:17:41,526
- You don't know about
rap music, bro.
340
00:17:41,528 --> 00:17:44,429
- Gentlemen,
I'm wearing the tie.
341
00:17:44,431 --> 00:17:45,830
I'll do the talking.
342
00:17:45,832 --> 00:17:47,765
- Is that what it takes
to run the class,
343
00:17:47,767 --> 00:17:50,301
'cause, uh, heck, I can borrow
my dad's tie tomorrow,
344
00:17:50,303 --> 00:17:52,170
and then I can be in charge.
345
00:17:52,172 --> 00:17:55,239
- All right, all right.
You're not funny.
346
00:17:56,242 --> 00:17:59,143
All right, once again,
we're gonna be working on...
347
00:17:59,145 --> 00:18:00,678
- Rolling Stones.
348
00:18:00,680 --> 00:18:02,246
- Half of you are gonna be
working flats.
349
00:18:02,248 --> 00:18:03,748
Half of you are
gonna be working sharps.
350
00:18:03,750 --> 00:18:05,583
- Me too.
351
00:18:05,585 --> 00:18:09,087
- ¶ Keeping up with the
winners like a constant trip ¶
352
00:18:13,359 --> 00:18:17,195
- Can I sit here?
- Yeah.
353
00:18:18,298 --> 00:18:19,764
- Where you from?
- Chicago.
354
00:18:19,766 --> 00:18:21,433
- Yeah, but, like, where?
355
00:18:21,434 --> 00:18:23,101
- South side,
83rd and Ingleside.
356
00:18:23,103 --> 00:18:25,203
- I don't know directions.
Is that far?
357
00:18:25,205 --> 00:18:26,737
- Something like that.
358
00:18:26,739 --> 00:18:28,306
- By the way, how's that
busted lip treating you?
359
00:18:28,308 --> 00:18:30,041
You kiss any courts lately?
360
00:18:30,042 --> 00:18:31,775
- So Zoey from Friendly Hills
got jokes.
361
00:18:31,778 --> 00:18:33,478
- Just to make it
perfectly clear,
362
00:18:33,480 --> 00:18:34,812
I was born and raised
in Humboldt Park.
363
00:18:34,814 --> 00:18:36,514
- You didn't say
that last night.
364
00:18:36,516 --> 00:18:38,349
- Last night?
What happened last night?
365
00:18:38,351 --> 00:18:39,750
- Yeah, Kholi, what happened
last night?
366
00:18:39,752 --> 00:18:42,320
- Nothing happened last night.
367
00:18:42,321 --> 00:18:44,889
We talked, and we went home.
Our own homes.
368
00:18:44,891 --> 00:18:46,624
- Mm-hmm.
- Oh, look at that,
369
00:18:46,626 --> 00:18:48,576
a guy who doesn't take
the first opportunity
370
00:18:48,577 --> 00:18:50,527
to lie about getting
in some strange girl's pants.
371
00:18:50,530 --> 00:18:53,297
- At least she admits
she's strange.
372
00:18:53,299 --> 00:18:55,299
- Hey, OG.
373
00:18:55,301 --> 00:18:57,802
- Look, South Side,
I'm having a party next weekend
374
00:18:57,804 --> 00:19:00,138
after Friday's game.
You should come.
375
00:19:00,140 --> 00:19:02,240
- Is he gonna be there?
- And everyone else.
376
00:19:02,242 --> 00:19:04,775
- I got to bring my boys.
- Sure.
377
00:19:04,777 --> 00:19:06,444
- I'll see you there.
378
00:19:07,680 --> 00:19:12,650
- Whoo-hoo-hoo! What?!
- Come on, son.
379
00:19:12,652 --> 00:19:13,818
- Ain't nobody go tell me
that we was coming
380
00:19:13,820 --> 00:19:15,553
to a king's mansion.
381
00:19:15,554 --> 00:19:17,287
- More medieval for this guy.
- Oh, for real?
382
00:19:17,290 --> 00:19:18,422
This all you, Mr. Jefferson?
383
00:19:18,424 --> 00:19:19,857
- It's about to be.
384
00:19:19,859 --> 00:19:21,526
- If I'd have knew
we was coming here,
385
00:19:21,527 --> 00:19:23,194
I would have brought all that,
you feel me?
386
00:19:23,195 --> 00:19:24,862
You know how much money I get
paid selling to these fools?
387
00:19:24,864 --> 00:19:26,564
- Not that type of party
tonight, G.
388
00:19:26,566 --> 00:19:27,565
- Then what type of party
is it, Kholi?
389
00:19:27,567 --> 00:19:29,234
What am I supposed to do?
390
00:19:29,235 --> 00:19:30,902
- You do know there's females
in that house, right?
391
00:19:30,904 --> 00:19:32,570
- Oh, yeah, I know
there's females in there,
392
00:19:32,572 --> 00:19:34,238
but every one of them females
is a case
393
00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:36,607
I'm not trying to catch.
How they look though?
394
00:19:36,609 --> 00:19:38,142
You tell me. How they look?
395
00:19:38,143 --> 00:19:39,676
- Get on, man.
- No, what they look like?
396
00:19:39,679 --> 00:19:41,179
No, I'm asking you.
397
00:19:44,184 --> 00:19:51,355
¶ ¶
398
00:19:56,563 --> 00:19:57,862
- That's enough, Liz.
399
00:19:57,864 --> 00:19:59,347
- Can we just have
one conversation
400
00:19:59,348 --> 00:20:00,831
about this
without you yelling at me?
401
00:20:00,833 --> 00:20:02,567
- We talked about it 20 times.
- Stop...
402
00:20:02,569 --> 00:20:04,202
- I don't want to talk
about it anymore.
403
00:20:04,204 --> 00:20:05,870
- Don't you think
you've had enough?
404
00:20:05,872 --> 00:20:07,789
- Hey, we got to go talk.
Look, I got a guy downstairs,
405
00:20:07,790 --> 00:20:09,707
but you got to be straight up
with him, no screwing around.
406
00:20:09,709 --> 00:20:10,841
He's my buddy.
407
00:20:10,843 --> 00:20:12,226
- I only got, like, six on me.
408
00:20:12,227 --> 00:20:13,610
- That's fine,
but I need your word.
409
00:20:13,613 --> 00:20:15,379
Don't sell him no $50 Tylenol.
410
00:20:15,381 --> 00:20:17,582
- Come on, Joe.
411
00:20:17,583 --> 00:20:19,784
If you think that low of me,
why'd you even bring him here?
412
00:20:28,261 --> 00:20:32,663
- Hey, man,
I'm about to--to head out.
413
00:20:33,399 --> 00:20:37,735
- Okay, man. You be safe.
- Hey, hey, hold on.
414
00:20:37,737 --> 00:20:39,804
Let me, let me.
415
00:20:41,307 --> 00:20:45,943
- So this is my room.
- Wow.
416
00:20:47,380 --> 00:20:51,616
¶ ¶
417
00:20:51,618 --> 00:20:53,551
Zija?
418
00:20:54,754 --> 00:20:58,556
- Yup, Zija.
- I just wanted to say...
419
00:20:58,558 --> 00:21:01,425
I think there's a lot of beauty
in this world.
420
00:21:01,427 --> 00:21:03,928
I don't need to be so angry
all the time.
421
00:21:05,732 --> 00:21:08,799
- You play?
- Yup, and I sing.
422
00:21:09,435 --> 00:21:10,868
I have a band.
423
00:21:10,870 --> 00:21:12,470
- Listen, man, I want you
to get home safe.
424
00:21:12,472 --> 00:21:15,806
- Hey, look at me.
Your life matters to me.
425
00:21:15,808 --> 00:21:17,408
- Stop touching me.
You just can't--
426
00:21:17,409 --> 00:21:19,009
- This is a night of love.
- Listen, no it ain't.
427
00:21:19,012 --> 00:21:21,479
- Shh. Let's bury the hatchet.
428
00:21:21,481 --> 00:21:23,981
- You don't go to school with
any of these other kids, right?
429
00:21:23,983 --> 00:21:26,267
- No way.
- All right.
430
00:21:26,268 --> 00:21:28,552
- Graduated in 2010, but I used
to sit for Zoey
431
00:21:28,554 --> 00:21:30,354
and a few of these other kids
back in high school.
432
00:21:30,356 --> 00:21:32,290
- Okay, all right,
well, you know,
433
00:21:32,292 --> 00:21:33,891
I'm with one of my boys.
He go to that school now.
434
00:21:33,893 --> 00:21:36,360
- You're, like,
the surrogate big brother?
435
00:21:36,362 --> 00:21:37,795
- Yeah, yeah.
436
00:21:37,797 --> 00:21:39,430
Well, you know,
you took care of the drinks,
437
00:21:39,431 --> 00:21:41,064
so I guess that makes
you the big sister.
438
00:21:41,067 --> 00:21:43,217
- I guess so.
439
00:21:43,218 --> 00:21:45,368
- Let's come together
and end this darkness.
440
00:21:45,371 --> 00:21:46,971
- Get--
441
00:21:47,840 --> 00:21:49,006
- Whoa, your hair.
442
00:21:49,008 --> 00:21:50,908
- Have a drink with me?
443
00:21:50,909 --> 00:21:52,809
- That was part
of my plan all along.
444
00:21:53,780 --> 00:21:55,079
Little Punky
Brewster can get it, now.
445
00:21:55,081 --> 00:21:56,781
Come on, now,
446
00:21:56,783 --> 00:21:59,583
- You want to know a deep,
dark secret?
447
00:22:01,321 --> 00:22:03,454
I learned on the accordion.
448
00:22:03,456 --> 00:22:05,423
- Shut up.
449
00:22:05,425 --> 00:22:06,857
- Really?
- Yeah.
450
00:22:06,859 --> 00:22:09,493
Oh, my dad,
he had this bachata group,
451
00:22:09,495 --> 00:22:12,663
and sometimes they'd switch
it up for the rhythm guitar.
452
00:22:12,665 --> 00:22:14,598
You want to know
another secret?
453
00:22:16,869 --> 00:22:23,541
¶ ¶
454
00:22:23,543 --> 00:22:26,844
- I already knew that secret.
- Oh, really?
455
00:22:26,846 --> 00:22:28,546
Am I that transparent?
456
00:22:28,548 --> 00:22:31,048
- Yeah, you're a little light.
457
00:22:31,050 --> 00:22:32,750
- Shut up.
458
00:22:32,752 --> 00:22:38,889
¶ ¶
459
00:22:38,891 --> 00:22:43,461
- Hey, buddy. Hey, buddy.
I think your girl left.
460
00:22:44,564 --> 00:22:47,765
- What time is it?
- The party's over.
461
00:22:47,767 --> 00:22:49,333
- I'll drive home.
- You--you ain't driving.
462
00:22:49,334 --> 00:22:50,900
No, I got you. We got you.
We're coming in peace.
463
00:22:50,903 --> 00:22:52,236
- I'm good.
464
00:22:52,237 --> 00:22:53,570
I'm good. I can drive.
- Whoa.
465
00:22:53,573 --> 00:22:54,739
- I'm good to drive, bro.
466
00:22:54,741 --> 00:22:56,608
- Come on.
- Thanks, bro.
467
00:22:56,609 --> 00:22:58,476
- Your breath
is super offensive, okay?
468
00:23:00,079 --> 00:23:02,513
Hey, look, look.
MayMay!
469
00:23:02,515 --> 00:23:04,382
- MayMay!
- MayMay!
470
00:23:04,384 --> 00:23:04,882
- MayMay!
471
00:23:09,922 --> 00:23:13,391
Why is it black people
always drive these big SUVs?
472
00:23:13,393 --> 00:23:15,760
- Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait,
wait. I'ma let you slide
473
00:23:15,762 --> 00:23:18,246
'cause you drunk.
474
00:23:18,247 --> 00:23:20,731
- You know, my BMW connects
straight to your phone,
475
00:23:20,733 --> 00:23:22,933
Bluetooth and everything.
476
00:23:22,935 --> 00:23:25,403
- Some are just born lucky.
477
00:23:25,405 --> 00:23:27,405
- No, no, no, no, no,
no, no, no, look.
478
00:23:27,407 --> 00:23:31,008
My dad didn't become rich
because of his generosity,
479
00:23:31,010 --> 00:23:33,544
but it wasn't given
to him either.
480
00:23:33,946 --> 00:23:35,880
I can't tell you how many kids
481
00:23:35,882 --> 00:23:39,049
I know just get cars
for their birthday.
482
00:23:39,051 --> 00:23:42,887
Happy 16th, son.
You failed three classes?
483
00:23:42,889 --> 00:23:45,689
You get an Audi
instead of a Lexus.
484
00:23:45,691 --> 00:23:48,125
No, we went 50/50.
485
00:23:49,061 --> 00:23:51,562
I earned $15,000
working the golf courses.
486
00:23:51,564 --> 00:23:53,497
It took me three years.
487
00:23:55,101 --> 00:23:57,835
You think all of us
got something for nothing.
488
00:23:57,837 --> 00:24:01,205
- You do know where I come
from people have real problems?
489
00:24:01,207 --> 00:24:03,841
- Can't help being born
where you're born, man.
490
00:24:03,843 --> 00:24:06,143
- Says the wealthy kid
with the BMW.
491
00:24:06,145 --> 00:24:08,546
- Do you not see
what you're in right now?
492
00:24:08,548 --> 00:24:10,848
You keep talking like
you don't live here,
493
00:24:10,850 --> 00:24:12,082
like you're just visiting.
494
00:24:12,084 --> 00:24:13,984
What have you got
to prove, man?
495
00:24:13,986 --> 00:24:16,554
Where is the shame in coming
from a nice neighborhood?
496
00:24:16,556 --> 00:24:18,155
My parents worked hard
to get to where they are,
497
00:24:18,157 --> 00:24:20,224
and from the looks of it,
so have yours.
498
00:24:20,226 --> 00:24:22,226
- I don't feel like
I'm welcome here.
499
00:24:22,228 --> 00:24:23,894
- That's all in your head!
Who is it telling you to leave?
500
00:24:23,896 --> 00:24:26,831
- Nobody!
- When I was seven years old,
501
00:24:26,833 --> 00:24:30,000
I remember my parents took me
out to the mall downtown.
502
00:24:30,002 --> 00:24:32,803
I was standing there
holding my mom's hand,
503
00:24:32,805 --> 00:24:35,573
and I saw another kid
there holding his mom's hand,
504
00:24:35,575 --> 00:24:39,543
only I had never seen anyone
like him except maybe on TV,
505
00:24:39,545 --> 00:24:43,013
so at seven years old,
I was unfamiliar with him, man.
506
00:24:44,250 --> 00:24:48,519
But I am asking you,
is that my fault?
507
00:24:49,489 --> 00:24:52,056
- You're not seven
no more, Brian.
508
00:25:00,766 --> 00:25:02,967
- Thanks for the ride.
509
00:25:02,969 --> 00:25:05,669
My house is up here
on the left.
510
00:25:22,188 --> 00:25:24,922
- What was that?
- I don't know.
511
00:25:25,258 --> 00:25:28,926
- Probably somebody blew a tire
on that pothole again.
512
00:25:28,928 --> 00:25:31,295
- I guess.
513
00:25:33,733 --> 00:25:35,933
- Where are you going?
514
00:25:35,935 --> 00:25:38,035
- I'm gonna check it out.
515
00:25:42,542 --> 00:25:46,210
¶ ¶
516
00:25:46,212 --> 00:25:48,579
- Help!
517
00:25:48,581 --> 00:25:55,753
¶ ¶
518
00:26:01,227 --> 00:26:06,564
- Somebody help! Help! Help!
519
00:26:06,566 --> 00:26:12,336
Brian? Oh, my God.
Brian! Brian!
520
00:26:12,338 --> 00:26:14,972
- When you dropped him off
at his parents' house,
521
00:26:14,974 --> 00:26:18,075
that was around 4:30.
522
00:26:18,077 --> 00:26:19,843
And then you just left.
Is that right?
523
00:26:19,845 --> 00:26:21,946
- I drove out. I pulled up,
524
00:26:21,947 --> 00:26:24,048
and I see someone laying
on the floor, and I ran over.
525
00:26:24,050 --> 00:26:26,250
I shook him.
That's why my hands got bloody.
526
00:26:26,252 --> 00:26:28,319
- So you kill kids and you
sell drugs, right, Lashawn?
527
00:26:28,321 --> 00:26:30,020
- You know what?
528
00:26:30,022 --> 00:26:31,489
You put that in my mouth.
I didn't say that.
529
00:26:31,490 --> 00:26:32,957
You said that.
Why would you put that on me?
530
00:26:32,959 --> 00:26:34,725
- Marcus, Marcus,
531
00:26:34,727 --> 00:26:37,595
tell me what happened
so we can all go home.
532
00:26:37,597 --> 00:26:39,597
Come on, man, I know you're
just protecting your friends,
533
00:26:39,599 --> 00:26:43,367
but it's not gonna work
because your boys right now,
534
00:26:43,369 --> 00:26:44,935
my two partners
got them in a room.
535
00:26:44,937 --> 00:26:46,537
One of them's already talking.
536
00:26:46,538 --> 00:26:48,138
I wouldn't be surprised
if he was telling all the
537
00:26:48,140 --> 00:26:49,740
cheat against you
right now.
538
00:26:49,742 --> 00:26:52,242
- That's a lie.
He wouldn't do that.
539
00:26:52,244 --> 00:26:54,178
- You don't sound too sure
about that.
540
00:26:54,180 --> 00:26:56,780
- They don't care about
what I got to say, Dad.
541
00:26:56,782 --> 00:26:58,382
In they mind I did it.
542
00:26:58,384 --> 00:27:01,085
In y'all mind I'm a murderer.
In y'all mind--
543
00:27:03,055 --> 00:27:05,005
- Bam.
544
00:27:05,006 --> 00:27:06,956
- Oh, and now
we have a warrant,
545
00:27:06,959 --> 00:27:09,093
which entitles us
to search your premises.
546
00:27:09,095 --> 00:27:11,028
- Any idea what we should
expect to find
547
00:27:11,030 --> 00:27:12,896
when we tour
that house up there?
548
00:27:12,898 --> 00:27:14,765
- I don't know, man.
549
00:27:14,767 --> 00:27:16,700
Now can I talk to my lawyer?
I'm tired of talking to y'all.
550
00:27:16,702 --> 00:27:19,687
- You know what that is?
- Oh, yeah.
551
00:27:19,688 --> 00:27:22,673
- No, take a really good look.
- Look like cocaina to me.
552
00:27:22,675 --> 00:27:24,274
Whatever, it's not mine,
so what's up?
553
00:27:24,276 --> 00:27:25,776
- I have a report saying
that you two were in
554
00:27:25,778 --> 00:27:26,944
a fight not too long ago.
555
00:27:26,946 --> 00:27:28,323
- It wasn't a fight.
556
00:27:28,324 --> 00:27:29,701
It was a heated basketball
competition.
557
00:27:29,702 --> 00:27:31,079
- What were you fighting about?
558
00:27:31,083 --> 00:27:32,950
- Are you even trying to listen
to him?
559
00:27:32,952 --> 00:27:34,918
- We got past that.
560
00:27:35,321 --> 00:27:38,822
- I can do something for you
if you give me something.
561
00:27:43,295 --> 00:27:45,279
- You can go fetch me
some weed.
562
00:27:45,280 --> 00:27:47,264
- Yo, I want to talk
to my lawyer though.
563
00:27:47,266 --> 00:27:49,400
How about that?
What?
564
00:27:49,402 --> 00:27:51,201
Get your hands off me!
565
00:27:51,203 --> 00:27:52,653
Get your hands off me.
Get your hands off me, man.
566
00:27:52,654 --> 00:27:54,104
- Sit down!
- You want to do something?
567
00:27:54,106 --> 00:27:55,739
Come on!
568
00:27:55,741 --> 00:27:57,207
- How about I lock you up
and lose the key?
569
00:27:57,209 --> 00:27:58,575
How would you like that?
I got this.
570
00:27:58,576 --> 00:27:59,942
- Cool it.
- I got this.
571
00:27:59,943 --> 00:28:01,309
- Cool it.
- I got this!
572
00:28:01,313 --> 00:28:03,080
And they'll find you
in a frigging Dumpster!
573
00:28:03,082 --> 00:28:04,632
Listen, you don't want to
574
00:28:04,633 --> 00:28:06,183
again, not on a piece
of trash like this.
575
00:28:06,185 --> 00:28:07,701
- It's not gonna be like
the other one.
576
00:28:07,702 --> 00:28:09,218
- Remember the last guy?
- I--
577
00:28:09,221 --> 00:28:11,789
- Who pulled the trigger?!
Who pulled the trigger?
578
00:28:12,692 --> 00:28:15,292
- Your mama,
that's who pulled the trigger.
579
00:28:19,932 --> 00:28:23,267
- Power 92.3,
Terrence Palmer here.
580
00:28:23,269 --> 00:28:26,403
Like everyone, I am talking
about Brian Sudermill,
581
00:28:26,405 --> 00:28:29,840
the boy from the 'burbs killed
in front of his own house.
582
00:28:29,842 --> 00:28:31,475
- Mr. Kholi Styles,
583
00:28:31,476 --> 00:28:33,109
you're being charged
with murder in the first degree
584
00:28:33,112 --> 00:28:35,112
in the death
of Mr. Brian Sudermill.
585
00:28:35,114 --> 00:28:36,246
Do you understand?
586
00:28:36,248 --> 00:28:37,981
- Yes, sir.
587
00:28:37,983 --> 00:28:40,217
- And how do you plead?
- Not guilty, Your Honor.
588
00:28:40,219 --> 00:28:42,853
- A murder happens every day
here in Chicago.
589
00:28:42,855 --> 00:28:44,321
When it happens
outside of the city,
590
00:28:44,323 --> 00:28:45,856
that's when it makes
national news.
591
00:28:45,858 --> 00:28:47,157
"The Chicago Tribune,"
592
00:28:47,159 --> 00:28:49,026
"The Chicago Sun Times,"
"RedEye,"
593
00:28:49,028 --> 00:28:52,362
all have devoted front page
coverage above the fold.
594
00:28:52,364 --> 00:28:55,399
- There's a lot of unconscious
bias that goes on.
595
00:28:55,401 --> 00:28:57,334
It happens with all of us.
It's very natural
596
00:28:57,336 --> 00:29:00,137
because your perspective
is based on your environment
597
00:29:00,139 --> 00:29:01,305
and what you've experienced.
598
00:29:01,307 --> 00:29:03,240
- ASA Canton?
- Yes?
599
00:29:03,242 --> 00:29:05,192
- Now, you've succeeded
in getting life sentences
600
00:29:05,193 --> 00:29:07,143
your last three murder trials.
Will you seek life again?
601
00:29:07,146 --> 00:29:08,412
- Now, Jake, you know
I'm not prepared
602
00:29:08,414 --> 00:29:09,847
to discuss that at this time.
603
00:29:09,848 --> 00:29:11,281
- Do you believe that
your being a black man
604
00:29:11,283 --> 00:29:12,750
in this particular case
605
00:29:12,752 --> 00:29:14,318
puts you
in an awkward position?
606
00:29:14,320 --> 00:29:16,887
- Look, I'm not the first black
prosecutor
607
00:29:16,889 --> 00:29:19,857
to try a black defendant,
and I won't be the last.
608
00:29:19,859 --> 00:29:22,793
- Every murdered child
deserves front-page coverage.
609
00:29:22,795 --> 00:29:24,762
- Like, I just saw a video
recently in the news
610
00:29:24,764 --> 00:29:27,097
where people
literally saw a kid dying
611
00:29:27,099 --> 00:29:29,533
and were, like, walking away
because they were scared.
612
00:29:29,535 --> 00:29:31,502
- So was it a hate crime?
Was he killed
613
00:29:31,504 --> 00:29:33,771
because he was white?
- Mr. Styles,
614
00:29:33,773 --> 00:29:35,539
given that this is
the first charge against you,
615
00:29:35,541 --> 00:29:37,474
I'm gonna set bail
at $3 million.
616
00:29:38,077 --> 00:29:41,812
- Who did the judge think
his dad is, P Diddy, Jay-Z?
617
00:29:41,814 --> 00:29:44,047
This is not Blue Ivy
that's in jail right now.
618
00:29:44,049 --> 00:29:46,250
- Whether you--you caused
619
00:29:46,252 --> 00:29:48,318
suffering to someone,
it is a mistake.
620
00:29:48,320 --> 00:29:50,187
- Unless you plan to
murder them on purpose.
621
00:29:50,189 --> 00:29:51,822
Then it's not a mistake.
622
00:29:51,823 --> 00:29:53,456
- With Kholi being accused
of murder,
623
00:29:53,459 --> 00:29:55,125
we have to look at it
624
00:29:55,127 --> 00:29:57,027
from a--from
a Christian perspective.
625
00:29:57,029 --> 00:30:00,063
We have to look at it
through those Christ lens.
626
00:30:00,065 --> 00:30:02,366
- Your Honor, I believe
1 or even 2 million
627
00:30:02,368 --> 00:30:04,201
would be sufficient.
Even those figures
628
00:30:04,203 --> 00:30:06,203
would be near impossible
for my client to obtain,
629
00:30:06,205 --> 00:30:08,071
but 3 million is nowhere
within his reach.
630
00:30:08,073 --> 00:30:10,407
- Black man to black man,
I would be sympathetic,
631
00:30:10,409 --> 00:30:13,076
except I chose to make
something of myself,
632
00:30:13,078 --> 00:30:14,812
while he chose
a different path,
633
00:30:14,814 --> 00:30:17,281
so no,
I'm not in an awkward position.
634
00:30:17,283 --> 00:30:19,316
He and I,
in more ways than one,
635
00:30:19,318 --> 00:30:21,385
are on completely
opposite sides,
636
00:30:21,387 --> 00:30:24,254
and my team and I are going to
make sure that this city
637
00:30:24,256 --> 00:30:26,990
and the jury
see that as clear as day.
638
00:30:26,992 --> 00:30:28,959
- See, the lamestream media
wants to keep the narrative
639
00:30:28,961 --> 00:30:31,094
going of black versus white,
black versus white
640
00:30:31,096 --> 00:30:33,564
'cause that's how a lot
of these guys make money.
641
00:30:33,566 --> 00:30:36,033
The news media, some of
the community organizers,
642
00:30:36,035 --> 00:30:38,435
they got to keep black
and white people fighting
643
00:30:38,437 --> 00:30:40,003
'cause it's a good story,
644
00:30:40,005 --> 00:30:42,005
and when we realize
they're sitting
645
00:30:42,007 --> 00:30:43,507
at the big table getting rich
and we're down here fighting
646
00:30:43,509 --> 00:30:45,475
and killing
each other over nonsense.
647
00:30:45,477 --> 00:30:47,878
- It's a never-ending struggle
for all minorities,
648
00:30:47,880 --> 00:30:50,214
but for some reason
it's forgotten
649
00:30:50,216 --> 00:30:53,450
that the fact it's not just
black injustice in America.
650
00:30:53,452 --> 00:30:56,320
- Mr. Franklin, you're no
stranger to cases like this.
651
00:30:56,322 --> 00:30:57,988
Some might even say that
you helped write the book
652
00:30:57,990 --> 00:30:59,990
on putting murderers
like this away.
653
00:30:59,992 --> 00:31:01,391
- Now, that's not
a question, is it?
654
00:31:01,393 --> 00:31:02,993
- Well, but don't you think
655
00:31:02,994 --> 00:31:04,594
that it could send
the wrong message?
656
00:31:04,597 --> 00:31:06,430
- Now, that's a question,
but no, I don't.
657
00:31:06,432 --> 00:31:08,232
- Now, I doubt you would ever
exhibit
658
00:31:08,234 --> 00:31:10,212
such a breach of etiquette
659
00:31:10,213 --> 00:31:12,191
as to ask me
to cut bail in half
660
00:31:12,192 --> 00:31:14,170
were it not for the simple fact
that you're defending your son.
661
00:31:14,173 --> 00:31:15,539
Let this be the only incident.
662
00:31:15,541 --> 00:31:18,075
- I'm sorry, Your Honor.
Forgive me.
663
00:31:18,077 --> 00:31:20,878
- A.J. Canton didn't ask me
to join this case.
664
00:31:20,880 --> 00:31:24,081
I went after the prosecution
for the sole purpose
665
00:31:24,083 --> 00:31:26,028
of joining that team,
666
00:31:26,029 --> 00:31:27,974
and it just so happens
that the lead prosecutor
667
00:31:27,975 --> 00:31:29,920
is my good friend,
Mr. A.J. Canton.
668
00:31:29,922 --> 00:31:33,957
- Let us remember the family
of Kholi Styles.
669
00:31:33,959 --> 00:31:36,627
Remember, Chicago,
we haven't heard it all yet.
670
00:31:36,629 --> 00:31:39,229
- There'll be
no more questions.
671
00:31:40,232 --> 00:31:44,534
- A $80,000 advance?
That's a lot of cash, Jackie.
672
00:31:44,536 --> 00:31:48,005
- I know, and I feel terrible
even having to ask.
673
00:31:48,007 --> 00:31:50,540
- And you'll be acting
as his attorney?
674
00:31:56,382 --> 00:31:58,482
So what you're telling me
is you want 80 grand,
675
00:31:58,484 --> 00:32:00,417
and you'll be pretty much
unavailable to work for me
676
00:32:00,419 --> 00:32:02,052
for the next several months
677
00:32:02,054 --> 00:32:03,687
after I've only hired you
a few weeks ago.
678
00:32:03,689 --> 00:32:05,389
- Sir, with all due respect,
679
00:32:05,391 --> 00:32:06,957
I can't just leave
my son in there.
680
00:32:06,959 --> 00:32:09,593
- Jackie,
I think you're a good guy,
681
00:32:09,595 --> 00:32:12,062
but I can't forward you
that much money.
682
00:32:15,167 --> 00:32:17,634
However, I'll keep you
on a leave of absence,
683
00:32:17,636 --> 00:32:20,504
and in lieu of pay
I'll arrange additional support
684
00:32:20,506 --> 00:32:22,539
for your team from one
of our younger counsel.
685
00:32:22,541 --> 00:32:25,042
- I--I can't afford that.
- Don't you worry about that.
686
00:32:25,044 --> 00:32:27,294
It's on me.
687
00:32:27,295 --> 00:32:29,545
You just worry about closing
this case and helping your boy.
688
00:32:29,548 --> 00:32:31,315
You take whatever time
you need.
689
00:32:31,317 --> 00:32:33,483
Your job will be waiting
after you win it.
690
00:32:34,053 --> 00:32:37,154
- Thank you, Mr. Shaw.
Thank you.
691
00:32:37,589 --> 00:32:41,258
- I mean, church, the world
doesn't need more religion.
692
00:32:41,260 --> 00:32:44,661
What we need is more love,
and once we love one another
693
00:32:44,663 --> 00:32:46,964
in spite of our differences,
694
00:32:46,966 --> 00:32:49,967
once we love one another
in spite of our flaws,
695
00:32:49,969 --> 00:32:52,269
once we love one another
in spite of our differences,
696
00:32:52,271 --> 00:32:54,504
we lead people to Christ.
697
00:32:55,507 --> 00:32:58,408
- All right, inmates,
we got a new one.
698
00:32:58,410 --> 00:33:02,012
- Ezekiel 22:30 says,
699
00:33:02,014 --> 00:33:05,248
"I looked for someone
among them that would build up
700
00:33:05,250 --> 00:33:09,553
"the wall and stand
before me on behalf of the land
701
00:33:09,555 --> 00:33:11,572
so I would not
have to destroy it."
702
00:33:11,573 --> 00:33:13,590
- Preacher Man, come and meet
your new neighbor.
703
00:33:13,592 --> 00:33:16,526
- "But I found no one."
704
00:33:16,528 --> 00:33:19,129
Church, we need to stop
judging.
705
00:33:23,402 --> 00:33:26,737
I mean, we can't all be saints
in the church. I know I'm not.
706
00:33:26,739 --> 00:33:29,139
I know you guys are saying
some of you guys are innocent,
707
00:33:29,141 --> 00:33:31,274
but I know I'm not.
708
00:33:34,013 --> 00:33:37,681
I mean, I've been on the block.
I probably sold to some of you
709
00:33:37,683 --> 00:33:40,550
when I was coming up
on Stony Island.
710
00:33:40,552 --> 00:33:43,487
You know me.
711
00:33:44,123 --> 00:33:47,691
Look, we all are
and were flat broke
712
00:33:47,693 --> 00:33:51,128
and in need of someone
to pay our debt,
713
00:33:51,130 --> 00:33:53,397
and the only one worthy died
on Calvary.
714
00:33:53,399 --> 00:33:56,500
I mean, greater love
has no more than this,
715
00:33:56,502 --> 00:34:00,070
to lay down one's life
for one's friend.
716
00:34:05,611 --> 00:34:08,478
Look at your neighbor.
717
00:34:08,480 --> 00:34:11,281
Grab their hand.
718
00:34:12,751 --> 00:34:14,618
And let them know,
"I'm with you."
719
00:34:14,620 --> 00:34:16,820
I'm with you.
720
00:34:16,822 --> 00:34:19,122
- Let them know,
"I'm with you."
721
00:34:19,124 --> 00:34:20,323
I'm with you.
722
00:34:20,325 --> 00:34:21,458
- I am with you!
723
00:34:21,460 --> 00:34:23,593
I am with you.
724
00:34:23,595 --> 00:34:25,695
- 'Cause if not you, then who?
725
00:34:26,331 --> 00:34:29,666
Amen. Amen.
726
00:34:30,302 --> 00:34:32,402
- Tensions is rising
all across the world,
727
00:34:32,404 --> 00:34:34,371
and social media is heating up.
728
00:34:34,373 --> 00:34:36,073
- On your news feed you scroll,
729
00:34:36,074 --> 00:34:37,774
and you see the face
accused of the crime,
730
00:34:37,776 --> 00:34:40,343
and right there, that's,
you know, judge and jury.
731
00:34:40,345 --> 00:34:42,412
- Blacks have to work twice
732
00:34:42,413 --> 00:34:44,480
as hard to accomplish
what white people get.
733
00:34:44,483 --> 00:34:45,682
- That's not true.
734
00:34:45,684 --> 00:34:47,451
- In the past few decades,
735
00:34:47,452 --> 00:34:49,219
I mean, thousands of young
Latino men shot
736
00:34:49,221 --> 00:34:51,755
and killed by police officers.
Can you name me one?
737
00:34:51,757 --> 00:34:53,240
- And you think what,
738
00:34:53,241 --> 00:34:54,724
white people just get
everything handed to them?
739
00:34:54,726 --> 00:34:57,043
- I can give you two,
740
00:34:57,044 --> 00:34:59,361
Ricardo Diaz-Zeferino,
Gardena, 2013,
741
00:34:59,364 --> 00:35:03,233
Antonio Zambrano-Montes,
742
00:35:03,234 --> 00:35:07,103
Pasco, Wash, 2015, both killed
by state police officers.
743
00:35:07,106 --> 00:35:08,638
- And those state
police officers,
744
00:35:08,640 --> 00:35:10,640
they went back to work
like nothing happened.
745
00:35:10,642 --> 00:35:12,242
- It's easy to see
why a police officer
746
00:35:12,243 --> 00:35:13,843
would look at Kholi and think,
"Oh, he's a murderer,"
747
00:35:13,846 --> 00:35:15,645
because that was
his mindset anyway.
748
00:35:15,647 --> 00:35:17,714
His mindset was already,
"He's up to no good."
749
00:35:17,716 --> 00:35:19,716
- It's almost like we've become
desensitized,
750
00:35:19,718 --> 00:35:21,485
and this is, like,
the--the norm.
751
00:35:21,486 --> 00:35:23,253
- This is just America now.
- And as you grow up,
752
00:35:23,255 --> 00:35:25,388
you realize the stuff
we used to do as teenagers
753
00:35:25,390 --> 00:35:27,691
and then coming to tell
a daughter that we was
754
00:35:27,693 --> 00:35:30,260
basically being racist
and stereotyping each other.
755
00:35:30,262 --> 00:35:32,395
- You think you have it
harder than me?
756
00:35:32,397 --> 00:35:34,598
- No, I know I do.
757
00:35:34,599 --> 00:35:36,800
- So, can you help me?
I need you to dig around,
758
00:35:36,802 --> 00:35:39,136
see what you can find,
anything.
759
00:35:39,138 --> 00:35:41,205
- My God, Jackie.
760
00:35:41,206 --> 00:35:43,273
I'm sure it crossed your mind
that's a pretty weak alibi.
761
00:35:43,275 --> 00:35:47,677
- Frank, you know Kholi.
- Do I? Do you?
762
00:35:47,679 --> 00:35:51,448
Hey, you're a great dad,
but sometimes, you know,
763
00:35:51,450 --> 00:35:53,183
a kid can slip, you know,
764
00:35:53,185 --> 00:35:54,584
and there's just nothing
you can do.
765
00:35:54,586 --> 00:35:56,386
- Well, I know what I need
to do,
766
00:35:56,388 --> 00:35:58,855
and that's prove
he didn't do this.
767
00:35:58,857 --> 00:36:02,225
Now, my question to you
is will you help me?
768
00:36:03,362 --> 00:36:08,165
- You already know I will,
but where we gonna start?
769
00:36:11,436 --> 00:36:13,370
- Ms. Abbas?
770
00:36:14,640 --> 00:36:17,307
- Mr. Shaw. Is everything okay?
771
00:36:17,309 --> 00:36:18,842
- Are you familiar
with the Kholi Styles,
772
00:36:18,844 --> 00:36:20,710
Brian Sudermill case?
773
00:36:20,712 --> 00:36:23,180
- I am, and I'm sure you know
better than I do
774
00:36:23,182 --> 00:36:25,682
that it's--it's pretty clearly
open and shut.
775
00:36:25,684 --> 00:36:27,567
I mean, don't you think so?
776
00:36:27,568 --> 00:36:29,451
- It doesn't really matter
what I think.
777
00:36:29,454 --> 00:36:31,454
You've just been promoted,
Ms. Abbas.
778
00:36:31,456 --> 00:36:34,658
You'll be taking second chair
for the defense on this trial,
779
00:36:34,660 --> 00:36:37,494
a trial that I need handled
with care.
780
00:36:37,496 --> 00:36:39,913
Mr. Styles
is a great investment,
781
00:36:39,914 --> 00:36:42,331
an investment that we need
to get back to work.
782
00:36:42,701 --> 00:36:44,968
Do you understand?
783
00:36:45,504 --> 00:36:48,305
Good.
Well, you should get going.
784
00:36:48,907 --> 00:36:51,241
You have a lot
to get familiar with.
785
00:36:57,482 --> 00:36:59,616
- I wasn't in bed yet
'cause the baby was screaming.
786
00:36:59,618 --> 00:37:01,985
That's when I heard the bang,
and I thought, I don't know,
787
00:37:01,987 --> 00:37:03,887
maybe an old car somewhere
was having trouble.
788
00:37:03,889 --> 00:37:05,622
Took me a moment
to calm her down,
789
00:37:05,623 --> 00:37:07,356
and I realized
I was still hearing screams.
790
00:37:07,359 --> 00:37:10,460
Peeked out the window and
saw Bill and that black kid.
791
00:37:11,330 --> 00:37:12,929
- Any idea how long from
when you heard the shot
792
00:37:12,931 --> 00:37:14,631
to when you looked
out the window?
793
00:37:14,633 --> 00:37:16,633
- I'm sorry, one minute,
five minutes.
794
00:37:16,635 --> 00:37:18,501
I was focused on my daughter
at the moment.
795
00:37:18,503 --> 00:37:20,270
- How well did you know Brian?
796
00:37:20,272 --> 00:37:22,939
- He used to babysit the boys
a few years ago.
797
00:37:22,941 --> 00:37:24,708
I don't feel like much
of a friend discussing this,
798
00:37:24,710 --> 00:37:27,310
but Brian was a pot head.
799
00:37:27,312 --> 00:37:29,646
Nothing beyond
what kids tend to do--I mean,
800
00:37:29,648 --> 00:37:31,782
I was a now-and-then
smoker myself,
801
00:37:31,783 --> 00:37:33,917
but you become a dad, you get
delivered from all that,
802
00:37:33,919 --> 00:37:35,919
and you don't want your kids
around people
803
00:37:35,921 --> 00:37:37,654
that do the things
you used to do yourself.
804
00:37:37,656 --> 00:37:39,556
- Yeah.
805
00:37:49,701 --> 00:37:52,602
- I need his Webelos uniform.
806
00:37:52,604 --> 00:37:54,437
- I boxed it.
807
00:37:58,343 --> 00:38:00,477
- Which box?
808
00:38:00,479 --> 00:38:04,814
- Donations.
- I don't want you in here.
809
00:38:05,317 --> 00:38:09,853
I'm keeping everything.
I'm making something for him.
810
00:38:19,364 --> 00:38:20,597
Don't wear that.
811
00:38:20,599 --> 00:38:22,565
- Check the box in the back.
812
00:38:27,439 --> 00:38:34,444
¶ ¶
813
00:38:48,360 --> 00:38:50,093
- Hey, Zoey.
814
00:38:52,364 --> 00:38:54,464
You're a friend
of Kholi Styles?
815
00:38:55,467 --> 00:38:58,101
I'm a detective working
on his case.
816
00:38:58,103 --> 00:39:01,004
- What, WPD?
- Nothing like that, private.
817
00:39:01,006 --> 00:39:02,872
I'm working for Kholi's dad,
family friends.
818
00:39:02,874 --> 00:39:04,741
- Yeah, well, I got
nothing to hide.
819
00:39:04,743 --> 00:39:06,643
- Then, hey, you don't mind
if I ask you some questions?
820
00:39:06,645 --> 00:39:08,712
He was at your party that
night, right, him and Brian?
821
00:39:08,714 --> 00:39:10,697
- Yeah, and everyone else
in town, so.
822
00:39:10,698 --> 00:39:12,681
- Did you have any contact
with him that night?
823
00:39:12,684 --> 00:39:14,451
- Yes, I did,
824
00:39:14,453 --> 00:39:16,553
but he didn't say anything
about killing Brian, so.
825
00:39:16,555 --> 00:39:18,788
- How well do you know Kholi?
826
00:39:18,790 --> 00:39:20,423
- Get to the point.
827
00:39:20,425 --> 00:39:22,492
- Well, I've known Kholi
all his life, right,
828
00:39:22,494 --> 00:39:24,361
and I'd like to prove
that he didn't do this,
829
00:39:24,363 --> 00:39:25,895
and if, like you said,
he didn't mention it to you
830
00:39:25,897 --> 00:39:27,631
or act suspiciously all night,
831
00:39:27,632 --> 00:39:29,366
then you might be somebody
who can help.
832
00:39:29,368 --> 00:39:31,067
- They found him standing over
Brian's body.
833
00:39:31,069 --> 00:39:33,069
Don't that mean he did it?
834
00:39:33,071 --> 00:39:35,105
- Actually, no, it doesn't,
but the cops don't have
835
00:39:35,107 --> 00:39:38,141
any other suspects,
and they aren't looking.
836
00:39:38,143 --> 00:39:41,878
I can see that you care,
that he meant something to you.
837
00:39:42,681 --> 00:39:45,081
We need your help, all right?
I need to get inside this,
838
00:39:45,083 --> 00:39:47,517
and you're the only person
that can do that.
839
00:39:47,519 --> 00:39:49,786
- Yeah?
What do you need me to do?
840
00:39:49,788 --> 00:39:51,921
- Brian's world,
the people in it,
841
00:39:51,923 --> 00:39:54,657
I need to get inside his life.
Can you do that?
842
00:39:55,927 --> 00:39:57,694
- Yeah, I think I can do that.
843
00:39:59,097 --> 00:40:04,734
- Mr. Styles? I'm Nancy Abbas.
Jerry sent me over.
844
00:40:04,736 --> 00:40:06,714
- Yeah, come on in.
- Thank you.
845
00:40:06,715 --> 00:40:08,693
- That's Frank right there.
- Hi.
846
00:40:08,694 --> 00:40:10,672
Nice to meet you, Nancy.
- Yeah, have a seat right here.
847
00:40:12,978 --> 00:40:16,946
Yeah, I think I remember
seeing you in the office there.
848
00:40:16,948 --> 00:40:18,581
How many cases like this
have you worked?
849
00:40:18,583 --> 00:40:20,784
- Um, well, I just passed
the bar last summer,
850
00:40:20,786 --> 00:40:22,786
so, you know,
this'll be one of my first,
851
00:40:22,788 --> 00:40:25,555
but I've helped
in a lot of civil cases.
852
00:40:25,557 --> 00:40:29,959
Here, um, I pulled some files
on similar cases
853
00:40:29,961 --> 00:40:31,661
we can look at.
854
00:40:31,663 --> 00:40:34,731
That is the State of Illinois
versus Elias Braley.
855
00:40:34,733 --> 00:40:36,099
He was an African-American
teenager
856
00:40:36,101 --> 00:40:37,667
who was caught on
a parking lot camera
857
00:40:37,669 --> 00:40:39,436
shooting a white teenager.
858
00:40:39,438 --> 00:40:41,471
They got a reduced sentence
of ten years after proving
859
00:40:41,473 --> 00:40:43,140
he was attacked first.
860
00:40:43,141 --> 00:40:44,808
- Look, my son doesn't belong
in there another ten minutes,
861
00:40:44,810 --> 00:40:45,942
let alone ten years.
862
00:40:45,944 --> 00:40:47,894
- I think it's only fair
863
00:40:47,895 --> 00:40:49,845
that I put this out there
right from the start, okay?
864
00:40:49,848 --> 00:40:52,682
I've reviewed the facts
of Kholi's case,
865
00:40:52,683 --> 00:40:55,517
and I am not entirely convinced
that your son is innocent.
866
00:40:56,054 --> 00:40:57,587
Now, I'm gonna do
whatever I can to help,
867
00:40:57,589 --> 00:40:59,189
but I think the best line
of pursuit
868
00:40:59,191 --> 00:41:01,024
may be to admit
that he shot the boy first
869
00:41:01,026 --> 00:41:02,826
while showing
how the earlier altercation
870
00:41:02,828 --> 00:41:05,662
provoked Brian
into attacking him.
871
00:41:05,664 --> 00:41:07,647
The toxicology test proved
872
00:41:07,648 --> 00:41:09,631
that they'd both been
drinking that night.
873
00:41:12,137 --> 00:41:13,353
- It's an option, Jackie.
874
00:41:13,354 --> 00:41:14,570
We've been racking our brains
here and come up with nothing.
875
00:41:14,573 --> 00:41:17,106
- That still doesn't explain
how Kholi got a gun.
876
00:41:17,108 --> 00:41:18,741
Kholi doesn't own a gun.
877
00:41:18,743 --> 00:41:20,098
- How can you be so sure?
You know,
878
00:41:20,099 --> 00:41:21,454
maybe one of the other
two boys he was with--
879
00:41:21,455 --> 00:41:22,810
- Because he's my son.
880
00:41:22,814 --> 00:41:26,082
I know my son,
and he wouldn't do this.
881
00:41:27,018 --> 00:41:29,252
I know it. I believe it.
882
00:41:29,254 --> 00:41:31,221
- This is something.
My kids are upset.
883
00:41:31,223 --> 00:41:33,256
My wife is afraid, and we've
never been afraid before.
884
00:41:33,258 --> 00:41:35,091
It is a little too close
to home, this story.
885
00:41:35,093 --> 00:41:36,893
- I actually admire the guy
for sticking around,
886
00:41:36,895 --> 00:41:38,578
even if he did it,
887
00:41:38,579 --> 00:41:40,262
and calling for help
because what are the cops
888
00:41:40,265 --> 00:41:42,165
gonna think the first time
they roll up and they see--
889
00:41:42,167 --> 00:41:44,000
- You admire him?
- But what's the first thing
890
00:41:44,002 --> 00:41:45,752
they're gonna see
when they see a black kid
891
00:41:45,753 --> 00:41:47,503
hunched over a seemingly
dead body covered in blood?
892
00:41:47,506 --> 00:41:48,771
- I'm surprised
they didn't shoot him.
893
00:41:48,773 --> 00:41:50,139
- Well, there you go!
894
00:41:50,141 --> 00:41:52,153
- You think A.J. Canton
is an Uncle Tom?
895
00:41:52,154 --> 00:41:54,166
- It's not his fault that he's
a black man from the inner city
896
00:41:54,167 --> 00:41:56,179
that has to take down another
black man from the inner city.
897
00:41:56,181 --> 00:41:57,781
I mean, can you think
898
00:41:57,782 --> 00:41:59,382
about what
he's probably thinking about?
899
00:41:59,383 --> 00:42:00,983
- You know, I got to tell you,
I've met A.J. Canton.
900
00:42:00,986 --> 00:42:02,285
I think he's a fine man.
901
00:42:02,287 --> 00:42:04,220
I think he's got
a thankless job.
902
00:42:04,222 --> 00:42:06,623
- Listen, personally, I think
the brother's okay, okay?
903
00:42:06,625 --> 00:42:08,191
He kind of reminds me
of something like a black
904
00:42:08,193 --> 00:42:09,759
Harvey Dent,
you know what I'm saying?
905
00:42:09,761 --> 00:42:11,794
He's.
906
00:42:14,199 --> 00:42:16,866
- All right. All right, bye.
- Hey,.
907
00:42:16,868 --> 00:42:18,535
- What's up, man?
- You know I'm too young
908
00:42:18,537 --> 00:42:20,803
and too pretty
to be up here all laid out.
909
00:42:20,805 --> 00:42:22,805
- I mean, I give you young,
but that's about it.
910
00:42:22,807 --> 00:42:24,073
- What?
911
00:42:24,075 --> 00:42:26,075
Man, you better
get out of here.
912
00:42:26,077 --> 00:42:28,177
Uh, look what the, uh,
wind blew in.
913
00:42:28,179 --> 00:42:29,979
- Be nice, Ronnie.
He's nice with the pockets.
914
00:42:29,981 --> 00:42:31,247
- Yeah, yeah.
915
00:42:31,249 --> 00:42:33,783
- What's up, my brothers?
- A.J.
916
00:42:34,085 --> 00:42:36,886
- Bro, what up, yo?
917
00:42:36,888 --> 00:42:42,559
You good? So what's up, yo?
Why it so dead up in here? Huh?
918
00:42:44,262 --> 00:42:46,095
Hey, Bobby,
what you got on the game, man?
919
00:42:46,097 --> 00:42:48,698
I think I might want
to get a piece of that.
920
00:42:50,068 --> 00:42:52,702
Ronnie-Ron, what it is,
brother?
921
00:42:53,171 --> 00:42:56,139
- You keep saying that,
"brother,"
922
00:42:56,141 --> 00:42:59,275
so, uh, we still brothers?
923
00:43:00,912 --> 00:43:02,829
- I'm sorry, what?
924
00:43:02,830 --> 00:43:04,747
- I think you
heard me just fine.
925
00:43:04,749 --> 00:43:06,849
- Yeah, whatever, man.
- So what we having today, man?
926
00:43:06,851 --> 00:43:08,902
- Bobby, you know how I like
927
00:43:08,903 --> 00:43:10,954
to get my hair cut,
man, so you tell me.
928
00:43:10,956 --> 00:43:13,690
Hmm?
What's really good?
929
00:43:17,128 --> 00:43:22,865
All right. All right.
Let's put it out there.
930
00:43:24,002 --> 00:43:25,602
So what's up?
931
00:43:25,604 --> 00:43:27,170
Y'all got a problem
with me or something?
932
00:43:27,172 --> 00:43:29,839
- Is the money that good, A.J?
- There it is.
933
00:43:30,175 --> 00:43:32,675
Is the money that good?
934
00:43:32,677 --> 00:43:34,911
Here I am thinking
I can at least come to the shop
935
00:43:34,913 --> 00:43:37,764
and not have
to hear this garbage.
936
00:43:37,765 --> 00:43:40,616
- Hey, you brought the garbage
to the shop, brother.
937
00:43:41,119 --> 00:43:43,086
- All right, Ron.
938
00:43:43,088 --> 00:43:44,887
Seems like you got an opinion
about this thing.
939
00:43:44,889 --> 00:43:46,255
The floor's all yours.
940
00:43:46,257 --> 00:43:48,358
Go ahead.
Lay it all out for us, Ron.
941
00:43:48,360 --> 00:43:51,127
- Why you got to get your nose
up in everything, hmm?
942
00:43:51,129 --> 00:43:53,246
Nah, I mean, I see you.
943
00:43:53,247 --> 00:43:55,364
You jump from one high-profile
situation to the other,
944
00:43:55,367 --> 00:43:57,266
but you don't actually
try to help anyone,
945
00:43:57,268 --> 00:43:59,936
let alone your own people.
I mean, not unless, of course,
946
00:43:59,938 --> 00:44:01,904
there's a sea of reporters
out there
947
00:44:01,906 --> 00:44:04,774
shoving cameras in your face,
so what happened, man?
948
00:44:04,776 --> 00:44:06,593
- First of all,
949
00:44:06,594 --> 00:44:08,411
who you think you're
talking to right now, hmm?
950
00:44:08,413 --> 00:44:10,813
You see, it seems like you got
all these opinions, right?
951
00:44:10,815 --> 00:44:14,083
But I don't recall you doing
a thing
952
00:44:14,085 --> 00:44:15,752
for the advancement
of black folks.
953
00:44:15,754 --> 00:44:17,153
- Okay, so your doing
954
00:44:17,155 --> 00:44:19,155
something includes
taking down a black man.
955
00:44:19,157 --> 00:44:21,157
- Oh, so check this out.
956
00:44:21,159 --> 00:44:24,727
When Ra-Ra got shot, right,
after he got pulled over,
957
00:44:24,729 --> 00:44:27,263
it was cool for me
to prosecute that white man.
958
00:44:27,265 --> 00:44:29,265
- No, hold on, man.
- Hold on, hold on, hold on!
959
00:44:29,267 --> 00:44:31,968
Hold on! It's cool for me to
prosecute the white man, right?
960
00:44:31,970 --> 00:44:35,071
But as soon as a white boy
from the 'burbs loses his life
961
00:44:35,073 --> 00:44:36,406
and I take the case,
962
00:44:36,408 --> 00:44:38,107
now you all want
to come at me like this.
963
00:44:38,109 --> 00:44:39,142
- Oh, you act like you
ain't getting paid!
964
00:44:39,144 --> 00:44:40,727
- Oh, man, come on.
965
00:44:40,728 --> 00:44:42,311
- Like, you want us to think
you just doing this
966
00:44:42,313 --> 00:44:44,080
because it's your civic duty.
967
00:44:44,082 --> 00:44:48,051
- It is my civic duty.
A young man got murdered.
968
00:44:48,720 --> 00:44:51,054
See, y'all seem to be
forgetting exactly
969
00:44:51,056 --> 00:44:52,639
where it is I come from.
970
00:44:52,640 --> 00:44:54,223
- What? Ain't nobody forget
where you come from.
971
00:44:54,225 --> 00:44:56,092
Anybody forget
where he come from?
972
00:44:56,094 --> 00:44:58,361
It's you that forgot
where you come from.
973
00:44:58,363 --> 00:45:00,296
- What?
974
00:45:00,298 --> 00:45:01,898
- That's the second time you
act like you didn't hear me.
975
00:45:01,900 --> 00:45:03,350
Let me ask you a question.
976
00:45:03,351 --> 00:45:04,801
- Go ahead, shoot.
- Where's the bullet?
977
00:45:04,803 --> 00:45:05,968
- Oh, sh--
- No, where's the bullet?
978
00:45:05,970 --> 00:45:07,303
- Here we go again.
979
00:45:07,305 --> 00:45:09,016
- As a matter of fact,
where's the gun?
980
00:45:09,017 --> 00:45:10,728
- Here we go. There it is.
981
00:45:10,729 --> 00:45:12,440
- All right, you gonna
prosecute a young black man,
982
00:45:12,444 --> 00:45:14,477
and you ain't even got
no physical evidence.
983
00:45:14,479 --> 00:45:17,780
- You see that, Bobby?
This brother is now a lawyer.
984
00:45:17,782 --> 00:45:20,316
- Don't seem like
it's that hard to do.
985
00:45:20,318 --> 00:45:22,251
- Mm-hmm.
- Not in our days.
986
00:45:22,253 --> 00:45:23,720
Okay, look, we all know
that you work for yours,
987
00:45:23,722 --> 00:45:25,121
A.J, all right?
988
00:45:25,123 --> 00:45:27,034
And you're running for mayor
and all that,
989
00:45:27,035 --> 00:45:28,946
and you want to be the leader,
990
00:45:28,947 --> 00:45:30,858
but the question is why
you got to take this case?
991
00:45:30,862 --> 00:45:32,729
- So tell me, Ron,
992
00:45:32,731 --> 00:45:35,098
who you think
should take the case, hmm?
993
00:45:35,834 --> 00:45:39,502
See, I'm getting real sick
and tired of this, y'all.
994
00:45:39,504 --> 00:45:43,473
When they started tearing down
the community, I stepped up.
995
00:45:43,475 --> 00:45:46,476
When they ripped the guts
out of the tailor homes,
996
00:45:46,478 --> 00:45:48,177
I was there right beside
the people,
997
00:45:48,179 --> 00:45:50,146
but I can't make a difference
998
00:45:50,147 --> 00:45:52,114
if I just stay right
beside the people.
999
00:45:52,117 --> 00:45:57,153
I have to lead and provide
justice for all the people.
1000
00:45:57,155 --> 00:45:59,288
- Let me tell you something,
brother.
1001
00:46:00,158 --> 00:46:02,291
I can remember
when Harold Washington,
1002
00:46:02,293 --> 00:46:04,894
one of the greatest
to ever grace this city,
1003
00:46:04,896 --> 00:46:07,463
would come through these doors
almost every Sunday
1004
00:46:07,465 --> 00:46:09,866
after services
at Blackstone Church.
1005
00:46:09,868 --> 00:46:13,269
He'd come through that door,
and he'd sit down right here,
1006
00:46:13,271 --> 00:46:15,088
right in that seat,
1007
00:46:15,089 --> 00:46:16,906
and I remember it like
it was yesterday.
1008
00:46:16,908 --> 00:46:21,878
And he would take time away
from actually running this city
1009
00:46:21,880 --> 00:46:24,914
to help educate
and spread positive messages
1010
00:46:24,916 --> 00:46:29,152
to every man, woman, and child
that came through that door.
1011
00:46:29,154 --> 00:46:34,290
He was definitely
one of the best of us,
1012
00:46:34,292 --> 00:46:39,061
and I still feel him
beside me today.
1013
00:46:41,499 --> 00:46:43,349
- So you still want that
line-up
1014
00:46:43,350 --> 00:46:45,200
for all the cameras
gonna be in your face?
1015
00:46:51,142 --> 00:46:53,876
- Man, why you got to try
to get so deep on a Sunday?
1016
00:46:53,878 --> 00:46:56,479
- You can't take the sermon,
get out the church.
1017
00:46:57,382 --> 00:46:59,315
It's all good though.
It's all good, A.J.
1018
00:46:59,317 --> 00:47:01,217
- It's all good?
- We'll always have a chair
1019
00:47:01,218 --> 00:47:03,118
for you, man,
even after you lose this case.
1020
00:47:03,121 --> 00:47:05,171
- Mm-hmm.
1021
00:47:05,172 --> 00:47:07,222
Yeah, well, may the right man
win then, all right?
1022
00:47:07,225 --> 00:47:09,358
- All right.
1023
00:47:11,996 --> 00:47:15,331
- Hey, Kholi, how you doing
this evening?
1024
00:47:17,235 --> 00:47:19,535
I've been meaning
to ask you a question.
1025
00:47:20,872 --> 00:47:22,371
- Shoot.
1026
00:47:22,373 --> 00:47:24,907
- How's your spiritual
life, man?
1027
00:47:27,512 --> 00:47:31,447
- I go to church. I'm good.
1028
00:47:31,449 --> 00:47:34,617
- I'm not asking how long
you been going to church.
1029
00:47:35,053 --> 00:47:39,422
Being behind these walls has
given me a chance to reflect,
1030
00:47:39,424 --> 00:47:42,892
a chance to capture
a different perspective.
1031
00:47:42,894 --> 00:47:44,961
As a priest,
1032
00:47:44,962 --> 00:47:47,029
I could quote the scripture
with the best of them,
1033
00:47:47,031 --> 00:47:48,865
and although I knew
the Bible really well,
1034
00:47:48,867 --> 00:47:51,300
I had never taken time
to actually know
1035
00:47:51,302 --> 00:47:53,469
the author of the Bible.
1036
00:47:53,470 --> 00:47:55,637
The name of God
was present in my life,
1037
00:47:55,640 --> 00:47:58,040
but the presence of God
was absent.
1038
00:47:58,042 --> 00:48:00,409
I looked the part.
I acted the part,
1039
00:48:00,411 --> 00:48:02,411
but I'd never taken a moment
to know God
1040
00:48:02,413 --> 00:48:04,881
on a--on a personal level.
1041
00:48:04,883 --> 00:48:10,086
- It's just hard, George, since
my mom died, and now this?
1042
00:48:10,088 --> 00:48:11,988
- You know, Kholi,
1043
00:48:11,990 --> 00:48:14,523
I--I can't pretend to know
what you're going through.
1044
00:48:16,027 --> 00:48:19,395
I can understand
wanting to question God.
1045
00:48:19,397 --> 00:48:22,515
It's--it's in our nature
to question,
1046
00:48:22,516 --> 00:48:25,634
but you know, God does not
allow pain without purpose.
1047
00:48:28,940 --> 00:48:32,041
- ¶ I know you're close, God ¶
1048
00:48:32,042 --> 00:48:35,143
¶ I know you're closer
than you've ever been ¶
1049
00:48:35,146 --> 00:48:36,879
¶ ¶
1050
00:48:36,880 --> 00:48:38,613
¶ Right where you are ¶
1051
00:48:38,616 --> 00:48:41,217
- This--this crisis
that you're going through,
1052
00:48:41,219 --> 00:48:44,921
it's not meant to destroy you
but rather to develop you.
1053
00:48:44,923 --> 00:48:52,061
¶ ¶
1054
00:48:58,469 --> 00:49:00,670
- Why can't I just
enjoy you playing?
1055
00:49:00,672 --> 00:49:02,939
- Hey, mister, you said
I could have anything
1056
00:49:02,941 --> 00:49:05,942
I want for my birthday.
This is what I want.
1057
00:49:06,978 --> 00:49:09,712
Come on, back straight,
arms out.
1058
00:49:09,714 --> 00:49:11,614
- Ma, I got this.
1059
00:49:17,088 --> 00:49:22,525
Even if you feel alone,
1060
00:49:22,527 --> 00:49:27,396
think of me,
and you'll be home.
1061
00:49:27,398 --> 00:49:34,370
Of all the things that we
may never know, don't worry.
1062
00:49:34,372 --> 00:49:38,407
I'll be there by your side.
Yeah.
1063
00:49:38,409 --> 00:49:40,643
- Happy birthday, Mom.
1064
00:49:40,645 --> 00:49:44,113
- Thank you. Thank you.
1065
00:49:46,284 --> 00:49:49,218
- George, will you pray
for me?
1066
00:49:49,220 --> 00:49:53,222
- Heavenly Father, we thank you
for this moment, Lord.
1067
00:49:53,224 --> 00:49:56,092
We trust, Lord, that you will
continue to bless his life
1068
00:49:56,094 --> 00:50:00,129
with seasons of uncommon favor,
that he would know, Lord,
1069
00:50:00,131 --> 00:50:02,031
that the pressures of life
1070
00:50:02,033 --> 00:50:04,133
are simply meant
to develop, promote,
1071
00:50:04,135 --> 00:50:07,236
and to qualify him for all
that you have in store for him.
1072
00:50:07,238 --> 00:50:09,672
Live in him.
Express yourself through him,
1073
00:50:09,674 --> 00:50:12,575
and may he know you
in a sovereign way.
1074
00:50:13,511 --> 00:50:16,412
We thank you for it, Lord.
Amen.
1075
00:50:16,414 --> 00:50:17,847
- They have no prints,
1076
00:50:17,848 --> 00:50:19,281
so he--they shouldn't
even be holding him.
1077
00:50:19,283 --> 00:50:20,683
- Right.
1078
00:50:20,685 --> 00:50:22,196
- If anything, he should
be out on bond.
1079
00:50:22,197 --> 00:50:23,708
- He was screaming for help.
1080
00:50:23,709 --> 00:50:25,220
Why would he do that
if he was the killer?
1081
00:50:25,223 --> 00:50:27,023
- I don't know, man.
I'd probably go miles away,
1082
00:50:27,025 --> 00:50:28,557
then call the police
or something like that.
1083
00:50:28,559 --> 00:50:30,559
- No one expects a killer
to stick around
1084
00:50:30,561 --> 00:50:33,162
and call for help.
Isn't that the perfect cover?
1085
00:50:33,164 --> 00:50:35,197
- He was murdered by someone.
- Right.
1086
00:50:35,199 --> 00:50:36,532
- We still don't know who.
1087
00:50:36,534 --> 00:50:38,267
- Didn't they find him
with a gun,
1088
00:50:38,269 --> 00:50:39,802
what's this guy's name,
Coca-Kholi No-Styles?
1089
00:50:39,804 --> 00:50:41,604
- And you bringing a wallet
back to him,
1090
00:50:41,606 --> 00:50:43,131
that's not a good--it
look like you robbed him
1091
00:50:43,132 --> 00:50:44,657
and killed him
and then came back.
1092
00:50:44,658 --> 00:50:46,183
- If the white kid was standing
over the black body
1093
00:50:46,184 --> 00:50:47,709
and everybody ran up,
they'd be like,
1094
00:50:47,712 --> 00:50:49,412
"Hey, man, what happened, man?"
- Right.
1095
00:50:49,414 --> 00:50:51,014
- The first thing
they would think is,
1096
00:50:51,015 --> 00:50:52,615
"We need to call--"
- Are you okay?
1097
00:50:52,617 --> 00:50:53,883
- You right, yeah.
- No, that's it, yeah, yeah.
1098
00:50:53,884 --> 00:50:55,150
- It's tragic for his family.
1099
00:50:55,153 --> 00:50:56,608
- It's tragic. I mean--
1100
00:50:56,609 --> 00:50:58,064
- But imagine how tragic it is
for Kholi's family.
1101
00:50:58,065 --> 00:50:59,520
- They do not put people
in prison for nothing.
1102
00:50:59,524 --> 00:51:01,641
- What?
1103
00:51:01,642 --> 00:51:03,759
- Where have you been for...
- Okay, all right.
1104
00:51:03,761 --> 00:51:06,128
- Like, the past 200 years?
- Basically, he's toast.
1105
00:51:06,130 --> 00:51:08,431
That's what all the kids are
saying at the school, anyway.
1106
00:51:08,433 --> 00:51:12,068
- Well, I think they have good
as his chance as anyone.
1107
00:51:12,470 --> 00:51:14,837
- You really believe that?
- Yeah.
1108
00:51:14,839 --> 00:51:17,139
They're gonna try it
in the city, so, you know,
1109
00:51:17,141 --> 00:51:19,175
race is not
really gonna be a question.
1110
00:51:19,177 --> 00:51:20,743
- Babe, you might as well do it
on the moon.
1111
00:51:20,745 --> 00:51:22,845
I mean, it's not
about the location.
1112
00:51:22,847 --> 00:51:26,549
Location doesn't mean anything.
It's about public perception.
1113
00:51:26,551 --> 00:51:28,484
You can't take race
out of that.
1114
00:51:28,486 --> 00:51:30,119
- He's not being persecuted
1115
00:51:30,120 --> 00:51:31,753
because
he's an African-American kid.
1116
00:51:31,756 --> 00:51:34,457
He's being persecuted
because he's covered with blood
1117
00:51:34,459 --> 00:51:36,392
with a dead kid at his feet.
1118
00:51:36,393 --> 00:51:38,326
- This is still a world
of race issues, yes, right?
1119
00:51:38,329 --> 00:51:41,119
- Yes.
1120
00:51:41,120 --> 00:51:43,910
- And this trial is gonna
be Sisyphus
1121
00:51:43,911 --> 00:51:46,701
pushing the boulder up the hill
again and again and again.
1122
00:51:46,704 --> 00:51:48,738
- Uh-huh.
- And it's not gonna stop,
1123
00:51:48,739 --> 00:51:50,773
and those people up there
with their newspapers,
1124
00:51:50,775 --> 00:51:53,576
they're gonna be
force-feeding us articles
1125
00:51:53,578 --> 00:51:55,011
about their local opinion.
1126
00:51:55,012 --> 00:51:56,445
- You all remember
the Central Park Five?
1127
00:51:56,447 --> 00:51:58,464
- Of course.
1128
00:51:58,465 --> 00:52:00,482
- 1989, a woman is jogging
through the park, is raped.
1129
00:52:00,485 --> 00:52:02,302
Five men, all black,
1130
00:52:02,303 --> 00:52:04,120
stand accused and profess
their innocence, right?
1131
00:52:04,122 --> 00:52:05,721
- I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Quinn.
What is your point?
1132
00:52:05,723 --> 00:52:07,089
- To get perspective,
to get personal. In 2002--
1133
00:52:07,090 --> 00:52:08,456
- On what?
This is not the same case.
1134
00:52:08,459 --> 00:52:10,042
- Those men were vindicated
1135
00:52:10,043 --> 00:52:11,626
when the real rapist
was found through DNA.
1136
00:52:11,629 --> 00:52:13,262
- If the roles were reversed,
1137
00:52:13,264 --> 00:52:15,664
they would have seen Brian
as innocent.
1138
00:52:15,666 --> 00:52:17,766
- You're Muslim.
- Oh.
1139
00:52:17,768 --> 00:52:21,737
- I'm Jewish. We have fears.
We're both, to an extent,
1140
00:52:21,739 --> 00:52:23,739
afraid
of the natural prejudices
1141
00:52:23,741 --> 00:52:26,275
that come with us
as being who we are.
1142
00:52:26,277 --> 00:52:27,810
That's what
this whole case is about.
1143
00:52:27,812 --> 00:52:30,479
- I don't believe that racism
is something
1144
00:52:30,481 --> 00:52:32,148
that we come into the Earth
1145
00:52:32,150 --> 00:52:35,251
as humans naturally
participating in.
1146
00:52:35,253 --> 00:52:38,254
I believe it is a condition
that is taught.
1147
00:52:38,256 --> 00:52:40,823
- Why does everything in
Chicago have to be about race?
1148
00:52:40,825 --> 00:52:42,691
- Craig, at the end of this day
it has to be
1149
00:52:42,693 --> 00:52:45,194
about the facts, okay?
1150
00:52:45,195 --> 00:52:47,696
And to accept that it isn't
something I'm prepared to do.
1151
00:52:47,698 --> 00:52:49,298
- Well, then I hope
you're right.
1152
00:52:49,300 --> 00:52:50,799
- So do you think he's
innocent, Brenda?
1153
00:52:50,801 --> 00:52:52,624
- No, I think he's guilty,
1154
00:52:52,625 --> 00:52:54,448
and I think he should go
to jail for life.
1155
00:52:54,449 --> 00:52:56,272
- All right, Brenda. Thank you
very much for your call.
1156
00:52:56,274 --> 00:52:59,241
- What if it's all said
and done, Kholi's not guilty?
1157
00:52:59,243 --> 00:53:00,826
He's innocent?
1158
00:53:00,827 --> 00:53:02,410
- So no matter what,
this guy's being crucified
1159
00:53:02,413 --> 00:53:03,779
and judged in the media,
1160
00:53:03,781 --> 00:53:05,447
and that's
another life destroyed.
1161
00:53:05,449 --> 00:53:06,815
It's sad.
These are two kids.
1162
00:53:06,817 --> 00:53:09,718
- But at the same time,
if he is guilty,
1163
00:53:09,720 --> 00:53:13,589
he does need to be in jail
for the rest of his life
1164
00:53:13,591 --> 00:53:15,958
because Brian's mother
and Brian's dad
1165
00:53:15,960 --> 00:53:18,460
cannot get another moment
with their son.
1166
00:53:27,672 --> 00:53:29,939
So this is all
they have, huh?
1167
00:53:29,941 --> 00:53:32,641
Well, I wouldn't call
this much of a plan.
1168
00:53:32,643 --> 00:53:34,877
- Could be better,
but you know,
1169
00:53:34,879 --> 00:53:37,613
Jackie really believes
what Kholi's telling him.
1170
00:53:37,615 --> 00:53:40,649
- I know my son,
and he wouldn't do this.
1171
00:53:40,651 --> 00:53:42,718
- And you, what do you think?
1172
00:53:42,719 --> 00:53:44,786
Do you still believe
that this boy did it?
1173
00:53:45,856 --> 00:53:48,390
- There may be a bit of doubt.
1174
00:53:49,694 --> 00:53:51,493
- Hmm.
1175
00:54:15,519 --> 00:54:18,420
- How are you holding up?
1176
00:54:18,421 --> 00:54:21,322
- I wish everyone asking me
that would stop. I'm fine.
1177
00:54:21,959 --> 00:54:25,261
- I feel bad. It was my party.
1178
00:54:25,263 --> 00:54:28,297
- You weren't handing out guns
at the door, were you?
1179
00:54:28,833 --> 00:54:30,566
- Look, I didn't know
Brian that well,
1180
00:54:30,568 --> 00:54:33,802
but he seemed like a nice guy.
1181
00:54:33,804 --> 00:54:36,038
- Is there a reason
you're talking to me, Zoey?
1182
00:54:36,040 --> 00:54:40,542
- Look, my parents died,
car crash six years ago.
1183
00:54:40,945 --> 00:54:43,946
I still don't talk
about it with anybody,
1184
00:54:43,948 --> 00:54:46,048
not even my sister.
1185
00:54:47,518 --> 00:54:49,151
- That was about the time
1186
00:54:49,152 --> 00:54:50,785
I moved in with
my uncle and aunt.
1187
00:54:51,355 --> 00:54:53,555
You were with him
that night, Kholi?
1188
00:54:54,292 --> 00:54:56,492
- Yeah.
- He seem like a nice guy?
1189
00:54:58,362 --> 00:55:00,329
- Yeah, he does.
1190
00:55:04,902 --> 00:55:08,037
- Nobody can say
he didn't have it coming.
1191
00:55:08,039 --> 00:55:12,041
He pissed off a lot of people,
but he was good to me,
1192
00:55:12,043 --> 00:55:14,343
and I loved him.
1193
00:55:14,345 --> 00:55:17,713
He had such an ego, you know?
He was so confident.
1194
00:55:17,715 --> 00:55:19,515
That's why I liked him.
1195
00:55:20,618 --> 00:55:25,387
No... I loved him.
1196
00:55:28,359 --> 00:55:31,960
Brian could always
hold a grudge,
1197
00:55:31,962 --> 00:55:34,596
but I never thought
he'd end up dead.
1198
00:55:40,338 --> 00:55:42,188
- Hello.
1199
00:55:42,189 --> 00:55:44,039
Mr. Manheim, is that right?
- Yes?
1200
00:55:44,041 --> 00:55:46,709
- I'm Nancy Abbas.
I work for Kholi Styles.
1201
00:55:46,711 --> 00:55:48,877
We were just wondering
if you'd answer a few questions
1202
00:55:48,879 --> 00:55:51,413
regarding the murder
that took place next door.
1203
00:55:51,415 --> 00:55:54,483
- Please come in. Come in.
- Okay.
1204
00:55:54,485 --> 00:55:55,784
So you were outside
that morning?
1205
00:55:55,786 --> 00:55:57,586
- Mm-hmm.
1206
00:55:57,587 --> 00:55:59,387
- Must have heard the gunshot
pretty loud and clear.
1207
00:55:59,390 --> 00:56:04,793
- I did. I know the sound
of a gun. Ranger, retired.
1208
00:56:04,795 --> 00:56:09,998
A gunshot here, it's about as
foreign a sound as you can get.
1209
00:56:10,000 --> 00:56:12,735
- So I mean, what did you do
when you heard the shot?
1210
00:56:12,737 --> 00:56:14,136
- Well, I ran toward it.
1211
00:56:14,138 --> 00:56:16,638
I figured someone
might have gotten hurt.
1212
00:56:16,640 --> 00:56:18,907
It only took me a minute
to pinpoint the direction,
1213
00:56:18,909 --> 00:56:21,343
but by the time
1214
00:56:21,344 --> 00:56:23,778
I got close enough
to see the Sudermill house,
1215
00:56:23,781 --> 00:56:25,781
all I could see
was that car taking off
1216
00:56:25,783 --> 00:56:27,900
down the road.
1217
00:56:27,901 --> 00:56:30,018
- What car?
- I just saw a pair of red
1218
00:56:30,020 --> 00:56:33,655
lights speeding off,
getting smaller and smaller.
1219
00:56:34,558 --> 00:56:38,127
Body type was like
a Tesla or a Mercedes.
1220
00:56:39,730 --> 00:56:43,732
- Okay. And then you saw
Brian alone?
1221
00:56:44,168 --> 00:56:47,803
- I saw someone, a body
on the ground,
1222
00:56:47,805 --> 00:56:50,706
and by the time
I got back down,
1223
00:56:50,708 --> 00:56:54,042
there was Bill holding his son
1224
00:56:54,044 --> 00:56:56,678
and that black boy
right beside him.
1225
00:56:56,680 --> 00:57:01,417
- Bill Sudermill says he found
Brian around 4:40.
1226
00:57:01,419 --> 00:57:04,486
This man heard the gunshot
at 4:30,
1227
00:57:04,488 --> 00:57:06,955
took a minute or two
to locate the source,
1228
00:57:06,957 --> 00:57:09,825
saw the car drive away
and leave Brian alone.
1229
00:57:09,827 --> 00:57:12,094
Then Bill comes out at 4:40
1230
00:57:12,096 --> 00:57:14,496
and sees Kholi there
with Brian?
1231
00:57:14,498 --> 00:57:16,532
Why would he come back
if he was the killer?
1232
00:57:16,534 --> 00:57:18,434
- Nah, that
doesn't mean anything.
1233
00:57:18,436 --> 00:57:20,636
- Jackie,
this is our first break.
1234
00:57:20,638 --> 00:57:22,438
- No, I tell you what this is.
1235
00:57:22,440 --> 00:57:25,174
We've got one senior citizen
who claims he saw
1236
00:57:25,176 --> 00:57:28,677
some red lights
far away in the dark.
1237
00:57:28,679 --> 00:57:30,429
You know what the county's got?
1238
00:57:30,430 --> 00:57:32,180
My son covered
in that boy's blood.
1239
00:57:32,183 --> 00:57:34,683
- Okay, but even you have
to admit that this is good.
1240
00:57:34,685 --> 00:57:36,496
- Eh.
1241
00:57:36,497 --> 00:57:38,308
- Okay, plus
there's still no gun.
1242
00:57:38,309 --> 00:57:40,120
- And no bullet to trace it to.
When it comes down to it,
1243
00:57:40,124 --> 00:57:42,458
that could be the only thing
that exonerates Kholi.
1244
00:57:42,460 --> 00:57:44,960
In this town, they've already
strung the noose.
1245
00:57:45,663 --> 00:57:47,930
No one's gonna do the heavy
lifting for us.
1246
00:57:47,932 --> 00:57:49,531
- Frank's right.
1247
00:57:49,533 --> 00:57:50,999
- You know, maybe this doesn't
seal the deal,
1248
00:57:51,001 --> 00:57:53,035
but at least
it's a shadow of proof
1249
00:57:53,037 --> 00:57:55,137
that there might be
somebody else.
1250
00:57:56,874 --> 00:58:00,008
- So find the bullet.
1251
00:58:00,010 --> 00:58:02,478
- They think I'm a murderer.
1252
00:58:02,480 --> 00:58:04,713
The guards look at me
like I'm nothing.
1253
00:58:05,516 --> 00:58:08,116
The dudes look at me
like a pushover.
1254
00:58:08,586 --> 00:58:12,554
- Are they keeping you safe?
- My roommate is a priest.
1255
00:58:12,990 --> 00:58:16,158
He's cool, but once
I go to the cafeteria,
1256
00:58:16,160 --> 00:58:17,726
once I go to the gym--
1257
00:58:17,728 --> 00:58:19,928
- We may have a witness.
1258
00:58:19,930 --> 00:58:22,197
A man says
that he saw a car pull away
1259
00:58:22,199 --> 00:58:25,801
just after the murder.
It was before you went back.
1260
00:58:26,770 --> 00:58:29,037
- That's great.
1261
00:58:29,039 --> 00:58:31,773
- You should be a little
happier, son.
1262
00:58:35,913 --> 00:58:38,146
- You think I'm a murderer?
1263
00:58:39,283 --> 00:58:41,884
If Ma was here,
she would believe me.
1264
00:58:41,886 --> 00:58:45,187
- No, son,
I didn't raise a murderer,
1265
00:58:45,189 --> 00:58:48,190
and your mother,
your mother does believe you.
1266
00:58:49,059 --> 00:58:51,109
She saw everything.
1267
00:58:51,110 --> 00:58:53,160
She has the best seat
in the house,
1268
00:58:53,163 --> 00:58:54,930
and your mother knows
you didn't kill that boy.
1269
00:58:54,932 --> 00:58:56,632
Do you understand?
1270
00:58:56,634 --> 00:59:02,104
- I just want to go home.
I didn't kill nobody.
1271
00:59:04,208 --> 00:59:08,143
- 107.5 WGCI, you're live
with Kendra G.
1272
00:59:08,145 --> 00:59:10,145
You know today is trial day.
1273
00:59:10,147 --> 00:59:14,983
- Kholi Styles is facing life
in prison,
1274
00:59:14,985 --> 00:59:16,818
on trial right now,
as we speak.
1275
00:59:16,820 --> 00:59:18,253
- If Kholi Styles were white,
1276
00:59:18,254 --> 00:59:19,687
would we be having
this same discussion?
1277
00:59:19,690 --> 00:59:21,223
- Absolutely not.
1278
00:59:21,225 --> 00:59:22,824
First of all, you'd have
no reason to talk to me.
1279
00:59:22,826 --> 00:59:23,992
He wouldn't be in jail.
1280
00:59:23,994 --> 00:59:26,094
- All rise.
1281
00:59:26,096 --> 00:59:28,830
- The prosecutor is also
black, A.J. Canton.
1282
00:59:28,832 --> 00:59:32,100
He's also from
a similar background as Kholi.
1283
00:59:32,102 --> 00:59:34,102
- I mean, why is he taking
this case?
1284
00:59:34,104 --> 00:59:35,771
What is his personal
motivation?
1285
00:59:35,773 --> 00:59:37,973
- Well, I think
it's a high-profile case,
1286
00:59:37,975 --> 00:59:39,575
career aspirations.
Think about it.
1287
00:59:39,577 --> 00:59:41,109
I think it seems
pretty obvious,
1288
00:59:41,111 --> 00:59:43,078
or there's an obvious answer,
at least.
1289
00:59:43,080 --> 00:59:45,747
- The Honorable Judge
Renita Hailey presiding.
1290
00:59:45,749 --> 00:59:47,749
- You may sit.
1291
00:59:47,751 --> 00:59:49,818
- Kholi is also being judged
1292
00:59:49,820 --> 00:59:52,054
because of the stereotypes
of Chicago right now.
1293
00:59:52,056 --> 00:59:53,655
- Mm-hmm.
1294
00:59:53,657 --> 00:59:55,223
- The inner city's
pulling for Kholi,
1295
00:59:55,225 --> 00:59:57,593
but meanwhile I feel like
everywhere else
1296
00:59:57,595 --> 00:59:59,728
they're kind of--everybody
thinks he did it.
1297
00:59:59,730 --> 01:00:04,733
- Brian and Kholi had
a contentious relationship,
1298
01:00:04,735 --> 01:00:06,134
did they not?
1299
01:00:06,136 --> 01:00:07,169
- They got into it
the first time they met,
1300
01:00:07,171 --> 01:00:08,721
if that's what you mean.
1301
01:00:08,722 --> 01:00:10,272
- A fistfight?
- Might as well have been.
1302
01:00:10,274 --> 01:00:12,274
- Well, what was it about?
1303
01:00:12,276 --> 01:00:14,176
- They just didn't
like each other.
1304
01:00:14,178 --> 01:00:17,145
- Now, Brian and Kholi
rode home together.
1305
01:00:17,648 --> 01:00:20,015
Could it be
they patched things up?
1306
01:00:20,017 --> 01:00:22,050
- Maybe, but if you knew Brian,
1307
01:00:22,052 --> 01:00:23,719
you knew he had
a pretty hot temper.
1308
01:00:23,721 --> 01:00:25,187
He could be your best friend
one minute
1309
01:00:25,189 --> 01:00:27,289
and your worst enemy the next.
1310
01:00:27,291 --> 01:00:31,893
- How long had you and Brian
been dating before he died?
1311
01:00:31,895 --> 01:00:33,395
- Two years.
1312
01:00:33,397 --> 01:00:36,632
- Wow, that's a long time
for two teenagers.
1313
01:00:36,634 --> 01:00:38,734
- I know, but we were in love.
1314
01:00:39,069 --> 01:00:41,837
- And that night,
when you saw your boyfriend
1315
01:00:41,839 --> 01:00:45,307
for the last time,
what was his demeanor?
1316
01:00:45,309 --> 01:00:48,310
- This conversation is over.
- Why are you yelling at me?
1317
01:00:48,312 --> 01:00:51,647
- This conversation is over.
- I loved him,
1318
01:00:51,649 --> 01:00:55,117
but sometimes it was
just like he flipped a switch.
1319
01:00:55,119 --> 01:00:59,254
- Mm. Then is it possible
that night,
1320
01:00:59,256 --> 01:01:01,990
despite Brian's good mood,
1321
01:01:01,992 --> 01:01:04,393
that he may have flipped
a switch,
1322
01:01:04,395 --> 01:01:08,330
as you said,
and antagonized Kholi Styles,
1323
01:01:08,332 --> 01:01:12,334
and in turn Kholi may have
flipped a switch on him?
1324
01:01:14,104 --> 01:01:17,873
- I guess so, maybe.
1325
01:01:17,875 --> 01:01:19,174
Yes.
1326
01:01:19,176 --> 01:01:24,179
- You were there the night
of that basketball game, right?
1327
01:01:24,181 --> 01:01:26,415
What was your
impression of Kholi?
1328
01:01:26,417 --> 01:01:28,383
- I just want to see
what you can do.
1329
01:01:28,385 --> 01:01:30,018
- You keep pressuring me,
I'ma show you what I can do.
1330
01:01:30,020 --> 01:01:31,820
- I got a bad vibe.
1331
01:01:31,822 --> 01:01:36,858
- Elizabeth, did you feel
safe around him?
1332
01:01:42,099 --> 01:01:43,432
- No.
1333
01:01:45,703 --> 01:01:47,836
I didn't.
1334
01:01:47,838 --> 01:01:49,838
- Thank you.
1335
01:01:49,840 --> 01:01:52,174
- The latest developments
in our ongoing coverage
1336
01:01:52,176 --> 01:01:54,176
of Black, White, and Red.
1337
01:01:54,178 --> 01:01:56,745
With the trial of Kholi Styles
well underway,
1338
01:01:56,747 --> 01:01:59,748
speculation is circulating
as to whether or not
1339
01:01:59,750 --> 01:02:03,018
Assistant State's Attorney
and mayoral candidate A.J.
1340
01:02:03,020 --> 01:02:05,721
Canton will once
again seek life.
1341
01:02:05,723 --> 01:02:07,789
- We have all these
anti-gun programs
1342
01:02:07,791 --> 01:02:10,459
and anti-drug programs,
but there's no program
1343
01:02:10,461 --> 01:02:13,862
strong enough
to counter bad influences.
1344
01:02:13,864 --> 01:02:15,814
Turn that off.
1345
01:02:15,815 --> 01:02:17,765
- I want to see you on TV.
- I said turn it off.
1346
01:02:17,768 --> 01:02:20,402
- A.J., all right, don't talk
to them like that.
1347
01:02:20,404 --> 01:02:22,137
They care about you,
1348
01:02:22,139 --> 01:02:23,805
and they're interested
in what you do.
1349
01:02:23,807 --> 01:02:27,009
- I know, 'Toy.
1350
01:02:27,010 --> 01:02:30,212
- Besides, seeing you
on television like that kind of
1351
01:02:30,213 --> 01:02:33,415
makes you a little famous.
Now do what you got to do.
1352
01:02:38,922 --> 01:02:40,122
- Hey, guys.
1353
01:02:40,124 --> 01:02:41,456
- Are you mad at us?
1354
01:02:41,458 --> 01:02:45,827
- Nah, buddy.
Daddy is not mad at you.
1355
01:02:45,829 --> 01:02:48,530
I just didn't want you guys
to see me like that.
1356
01:02:48,532 --> 01:02:50,799
- But you've been on
TV before, dad.
1357
01:02:50,801 --> 01:02:53,869
We've seen you get interviewed
for things lots of times.
1358
01:02:53,871 --> 01:02:59,040
- I know, and you're right,
but this time, this case...
1359
01:03:00,144 --> 01:03:02,377
What they're saying
about your dad
1360
01:03:02,379 --> 01:03:06,381
and what my plans are,
this time it's different.
1361
01:03:07,184 --> 01:03:09,718
Do you guys understand why?
1362
01:03:09,719 --> 01:03:12,253
- Did you do something wrong?
Are you gonna be in trouble?
1363
01:03:12,256 --> 01:03:13,922
- No, no, no, no.
1364
01:03:13,924 --> 01:03:15,791
I'm not gonna be
in any trouble, all right?
1365
01:03:15,793 --> 01:03:18,393
- Why were you so upset?
Was it because of what happened
1366
01:03:18,395 --> 01:03:20,929
at the barber shop
with Uncle Ronnie?
1367
01:03:20,931 --> 01:03:23,298
- A little bit.
1368
01:03:23,300 --> 01:03:26,434
But look, what I want you guys
to understand is that
1369
01:03:26,436 --> 01:03:30,872
God made this beautiful world
of right and wrong.
1370
01:03:30,874 --> 01:03:36,344
Now, sometimes it's just that,
black or white, no in between.
1371
01:03:36,346 --> 01:03:40,482
- But sometimes the world
shakes things up a bit
1372
01:03:40,484 --> 01:03:43,952
and gives us
this lukewarm gray area,
1373
01:03:43,954 --> 01:03:47,122
and that's what's happening
with your dad's case.
1374
01:03:47,124 --> 01:03:50,959
A lot of people out there,
especially the media,
1375
01:03:50,961 --> 01:03:52,961
are gonna try to take advantage
of the community
1376
01:03:52,963 --> 01:03:54,980
and everyone in it,
1377
01:03:54,981 --> 01:03:56,998
and their biggest piece
of ammunition is your father
1378
01:03:57,000 --> 01:03:59,668
and what his plans are.
1379
01:03:59,669 --> 01:04:02,337
- You see, they're gonna try to
paint me as a bad guy,
1380
01:04:02,339 --> 01:04:06,441
and I just hoped
I could still be your hero
1381
01:04:06,443 --> 01:04:08,476
for just a little bit longer.
1382
01:04:08,478 --> 01:04:10,245
- Don't worry, Daddy.
1383
01:04:10,247 --> 01:04:13,381
I won't let anyone
put any pain on you.
1384
01:04:15,619 --> 01:04:20,255
Come here, little man.
You too. Get over here.
1385
01:04:20,257 --> 01:04:24,292
Come on. Daddy loves you.
You're my babies.
1386
01:04:24,294 --> 01:04:27,495
And you too, my big baby.
1387
01:04:27,497 --> 01:04:31,533
- Mm-hmm.
- I love you.
1388
01:04:34,304 --> 01:04:36,404
- You may call
your next witness.
1389
01:04:37,541 --> 01:04:40,075
- The state calls Marcus Jones.
1390
01:04:48,418 --> 01:04:51,786
- I'll tell you the truth,
MayMay.
1391
01:04:51,787 --> 01:04:55,155
I don't like people like you,
and I know if I dig around,
1392
01:04:55,158 --> 01:04:58,493
I'm gonna find a family
of people just like you.
1393
01:04:58,495 --> 01:05:02,030
- Mr. Jones, please face me,
raise your right hand.
1394
01:05:03,033 --> 01:05:04,900
Do you swear to tell the truth,
the whole truth,
1395
01:05:04,902 --> 01:05:07,435
and nothing but the truth,
so help you, God?
1396
01:05:07,437 --> 01:05:10,338
- I do.
- Look, MayMay, you saw
1397
01:05:10,340 --> 01:05:13,308
that Kholi
didn't pop Brian, right?
1398
01:05:13,310 --> 01:05:16,578
So we need you
to testify under oath.
1399
01:05:16,580 --> 01:05:19,014
- Test--come on, man.
You got my sheet.
1400
01:05:19,016 --> 01:05:20,360
I walk in that room,
1401
01:05:20,361 --> 01:05:21,705
those people take one
look at me,
1402
01:05:21,706 --> 01:05:23,050
and they gonna think I'm lying.
1403
01:05:23,053 --> 01:05:25,186
- You got a brother, 23.
1404
01:05:28,592 --> 01:05:32,060
You got a crackhead mama,
Lord have mercy.
1405
01:05:34,598 --> 01:05:38,199
And you got a daughter,
little Tanya.
1406
01:05:40,404 --> 01:05:43,104
You don't got a daddy
no more, do you?
1407
01:05:49,179 --> 01:05:51,346
- Forget all what they may
or may not think.
1408
01:05:51,348 --> 01:05:54,549
We need you, all right?
Kholi needs you.
1409
01:05:54,551 --> 01:05:56,651
You gonna help us?
1410
01:05:58,088 --> 01:06:00,956
- Now, you're gonna tell me
right now who did it.
1411
01:06:00,958 --> 01:06:03,558
You tell me
who pulled the trigger.
1412
01:06:05,095 --> 01:06:10,398
- Mr. Jones, you were
at the party with Mr. Styles.
1413
01:06:10,400 --> 01:06:13,101
I mean, you two were
best friends, right?
1414
01:06:14,004 --> 01:06:15,403
- Yes.
1415
01:06:15,405 --> 01:06:17,405
- And you were with him
the whole night,
1416
01:06:17,407 --> 01:06:21,509
from approximately 6:30 p.m.
to 4:00 a.m.,
1417
01:06:21,511 --> 01:06:24,012
right by his side
the whole time?
1418
01:06:24,014 --> 01:06:25,513
- No.
1419
01:06:25,515 --> 01:06:27,582
He was in that girl's room
for about an hour.
1420
01:06:27,584 --> 01:06:29,684
I didn't see him again
till after that.
1421
01:06:29,686 --> 01:06:33,455
- Will the court please
allow me to present exhibit G,
1422
01:06:33,457 --> 01:06:35,623
a 9-millimeter handgun,
into evidence?
1423
01:06:35,625 --> 01:06:37,525
- We will.
- Thank you.
1424
01:06:37,527 --> 01:06:39,728
Did we know about this?
1425
01:06:39,730 --> 01:06:41,563
I'll check with Frank.
1426
01:06:41,565 --> 01:06:44,883
Now he finds a gun?
1427
01:06:44,884 --> 01:06:48,202
- Mr. Jones, is this your gun?
- Yes.
1428
01:06:49,072 --> 01:06:51,673
- And how did it wind up
in court today?
1429
01:06:52,676 --> 01:06:56,177
- The police,
they found it under my bed.
1430
01:06:56,179 --> 01:07:01,016
- Was this the gun used to kill
Briand Sudermill?
1431
01:07:02,219 --> 01:07:04,152
- Yes.
1432
01:07:04,621 --> 01:07:07,088
- So was it you that
shot Brian?
1433
01:07:07,090 --> 01:07:10,125
- No, sir, I did not.
1434
01:07:10,126 --> 01:07:13,161
- Okay, okay, so if you didn't
murder him, then who did?
1435
01:07:14,598 --> 01:07:16,164
- Kholi.
- What?!
1436
01:07:16,166 --> 01:07:18,033
- Objection!
- I don't know why.
1437
01:07:18,035 --> 01:07:19,234
I had it on me
when I got in the car.
1438
01:07:19,236 --> 01:07:20,736
I guess he slipped it off--
1439
01:07:20,737 --> 01:07:22,237
- Your Honor, this is a clear
violation of disclosure.
1440
01:07:22,239 --> 01:07:23,605
- We will have order.
1441
01:07:23,606 --> 01:07:24,972
- Maybe that was his plan
the whole time,
1442
01:07:24,973 --> 01:07:26,339
to shoot him in the street.
1443
01:07:26,340 --> 01:07:27,706
That's all they need.
You have to go.
1444
01:07:27,711 --> 01:07:30,378
- He's dead, Kholi.
Get in the car.
1445
01:07:30,380 --> 01:07:33,815
- We had no prior knowledge
of this gun or this witness.
1446
01:07:33,817 --> 01:07:36,351
Mr. Canton here has clearly
and deliberately
1447
01:07:36,353 --> 01:07:38,486
withheld this information,
and we move for a mistrial.
1448
01:07:38,488 --> 01:07:39,938
- Quiet.
1449
01:07:39,939 --> 01:07:41,389
- He shot him, and I grabbed
the gun and took off.
1450
01:07:41,391 --> 01:07:42,707
I don't know. We panicked.
1451
01:07:42,708 --> 01:07:44,024
- The jury will ignore
this outburst.
1452
01:07:44,025 --> 01:07:45,341
- So MayMay, you saying
I pulled the trigger?
1453
01:07:45,342 --> 01:07:46,658
- We will have order
in this court.
1454
01:07:46,663 --> 01:07:49,514
- You killed Brian!
Yes, you pulled the trigger.
1455
01:07:49,515 --> 01:07:52,366
- Mr. Jones, that is enough.
- Where Lashawn at?
1456
01:07:52,369 --> 01:07:56,204
- You can't help Kholi?
- I want to, but I can't.
1457
01:07:56,206 --> 01:07:59,574
- You know what that is?
1458
01:07:59,576 --> 01:08:00,992
- Why you doing this?
1459
01:08:00,993 --> 01:08:02,409
- 'Cause you pulled
the trigger!
1460
01:08:02,412 --> 01:08:03,711
You killed Brian!
1461
01:08:03,713 --> 01:08:06,214
- Bailiff. That is enough!
Bailiff.
1462
01:08:06,216 --> 01:08:07,615
Get off! Get off!
1463
01:08:07,617 --> 01:08:09,184
- Stop lying!
1464
01:08:09,185 --> 01:08:10,752
- Take the jury
into their holding.
1465
01:08:10,754 --> 01:08:12,287
- Tell the people the truth!
1466
01:08:12,288 --> 01:08:13,821
- I will see counsel
in my chambers now.
1467
01:08:13,824 --> 01:08:15,690
- Objection!
No, he can't do this!
1468
01:08:15,692 --> 01:08:18,560
- Get off me! Get off me!
1469
01:08:18,562 --> 01:08:20,628
Dad! Dad!
1470
01:08:20,630 --> 01:08:23,298
Get off me!
I didn't do it! I didn't do it!
1471
01:08:23,300 --> 01:08:25,767
- This is outrageous.
We get no discovery,
1472
01:08:25,769 --> 01:08:27,735
and then the prosecution
whips out a gun.
1473
01:08:27,737 --> 01:08:29,571
This jury can't unsee
that pistol,
1474
01:08:29,573 --> 01:08:31,573
and they can't unhear
that false testimony!
1475
01:08:31,575 --> 01:08:34,876
- Calm down, Mr. Styles.
What is this?
1476
01:08:34,878 --> 01:08:36,678
- The end of this case,
Your Honor,
1477
01:08:36,680 --> 01:08:38,964
and for a lack
of a better term,
1478
01:08:38,965 --> 01:08:41,249
he just heard the last nail
hammer into that coffin,
1479
01:08:41,251 --> 01:08:43,284
and understandably
they're panicking.
1480
01:08:43,286 --> 01:08:45,487
- Neither ASA Canton nor the
State's Attorney's Office
1481
01:08:45,489 --> 01:08:46,788
provided any information
1482
01:08:46,790 --> 01:08:48,623
regarding
the discovery of this gun.
1483
01:08:48,625 --> 01:08:50,525
Canton deliberately
withheld this information,
1484
01:08:50,527 --> 01:08:52,660
thereby robbing this defense
of the time
1485
01:08:52,662 --> 01:08:54,796
to prepare
a proper cross-examination.
1486
01:08:54,798 --> 01:08:56,798
- He's just mad his son's
little hood friends
1487
01:08:56,800 --> 01:08:58,666
aren't gonna back up
his nonsense story.
1488
01:08:58,668 --> 01:09:00,902
- You have no idea
what you're talking about.
1489
01:09:00,904 --> 01:09:02,837
Your Honor, if you're not gonna
give me the mistrial,
1490
01:09:02,839 --> 01:09:04,506
the least you could do
is sanction the prosecutor...
1491
01:09:04,508 --> 01:09:05,907
- What?
- By tossing out
1492
01:09:05,908 --> 01:09:07,307
the witness's entire statement.
1493
01:09:07,310 --> 01:09:10,512
- Your Honor, we can see
that he is clearly blind
1494
01:09:10,514 --> 01:09:12,447
and distracted
when it comes to his son
1495
01:09:12,449 --> 01:09:14,916
and justice
for Brain Sudermill!
1496
01:09:14,917 --> 01:09:17,384
- That is enough.
Now, Mr. Canton, is he right?
1497
01:09:17,387 --> 01:09:19,721
Did your office withhold this
information from the defense?
1498
01:09:19,723 --> 01:09:22,073
- Your Honor--
1499
01:09:22,074 --> 01:09:24,424
- And think before
you answer me.
1500
01:09:25,529 --> 01:09:29,297
- Your Honor, we only became
aware of Mr. Jones's desire
1501
01:09:29,299 --> 01:09:31,566
to testify this morning.
1502
01:09:31,567 --> 01:09:33,834
Up until then we had
no intention of putting one
1503
01:09:33,837 --> 01:09:36,571
of the defendant's
best friends on the stand.
1504
01:09:36,573 --> 01:09:38,540
That's nonsensical.
What prosecutor
1505
01:09:38,542 --> 01:09:40,575
in their right mind
would do something like that?
1506
01:09:40,577 --> 01:09:42,310
- And yet you did.
1507
01:09:42,312 --> 01:09:43,845
- Marcus reached out
from Cook County
1508
01:09:43,847 --> 01:09:45,713
and requested to be here.
1509
01:09:45,715 --> 01:09:47,749
He said that he had
to tell the truth,
1510
01:09:47,750 --> 01:09:49,784
that what was going on
was eating him up inside.
1511
01:09:49,786 --> 01:09:51,886
- You got to be kidding me!
- My God.
1512
01:09:51,888 --> 01:09:54,222
- Your Honor, I'm sorry.
This is classic sandbagging.
1513
01:09:54,224 --> 01:09:55,924
- Oh, come on.
1514
01:09:55,925 --> 01:09:57,625
- You can't just pop up
with evidence
1515
01:09:57,626 --> 01:09:59,326
in the middle of a trial
and expect me to cross-examine,
1516
01:09:59,329 --> 01:10:01,663
and there's no way that MayMay,
my son's best friend
1517
01:10:01,665 --> 01:10:03,932
from childhood,
suddenly wanted to just flip
1518
01:10:03,934 --> 01:10:06,434
and make those
outrageous statements.
1519
01:10:06,436 --> 01:10:09,237
I've known that boy too long.
He wouldn't.
1520
01:10:09,239 --> 01:10:10,939
- Your Honor, if you would
check with the prison,
1521
01:10:10,941 --> 01:10:12,840
I'm sure there's
a record of the call,
1522
01:10:12,842 --> 01:10:15,410
and then he can see that
when we got it and followed up,
1523
01:10:15,412 --> 01:10:17,462
there would be no time
1524
01:10:17,463 --> 01:10:19,513
to have this formal
sit-down discovery session!
1525
01:10:19,516 --> 01:10:22,584
- What about the gun?
- That came even later,
1526
01:10:22,586 --> 01:10:25,470
Your Honor.
1527
01:10:25,471 --> 01:10:28,355
I promise you that everything
is legit, legal,
1528
01:10:28,358 --> 01:10:30,258
and on the up-and-up here.
1529
01:10:30,260 --> 01:10:34,362
I'm sorry, man, all right?
I truly, truly am.
1530
01:10:34,364 --> 01:10:37,932
- Don't apologize to me.
You apologize to my son.
1531
01:10:39,536 --> 01:10:42,237
This ain't over.
1532
01:10:42,238 --> 01:10:44,939
- Styles is falling apart.
His case is paper-thin,
1533
01:10:44,941 --> 01:10:47,242
and it's already started
to crack and wither away.
1534
01:10:47,244 --> 01:10:51,379
- Yeah, I see it.
I'm sure he sees it too.
1535
01:10:52,315 --> 01:10:54,749
- You don't sound
too pleased with that.
1536
01:10:54,751 --> 01:10:57,285
- You're not a father.
1537
01:10:57,287 --> 01:11:00,922
I mean, sure, I mean,
most likely we got it right,
1538
01:11:00,924 --> 01:11:03,925
and Kholi killed
Brian Sudermill,
1539
01:11:03,927 --> 01:11:06,394
but that man is still in there
fighting for his son's life.
1540
01:11:06,396 --> 01:11:09,430
- Well, let's not forget
who he's fighting against.
1541
01:11:09,432 --> 01:11:12,900
Don't start doubting yourself.
That would be suicide.
1542
01:11:12,902 --> 01:11:14,802
- It's not about me
doubting myself or not.
1543
01:11:14,804 --> 01:11:16,638
It's about father-to-father,
1544
01:11:16,639 --> 01:11:18,473
what that man
must be going through.
1545
01:11:18,475 --> 01:11:22,443
Look, I'm about to shatter
what little bit of a world
1546
01:11:22,445 --> 01:11:26,948
he's been able to hold on to,
and I'm gonna do my job.
1547
01:11:28,385 --> 01:11:30,818
Doesn't mean I have
to like doing it.
1548
01:11:33,857 --> 01:11:36,057
- Just make sure you do it.
1549
01:11:38,495 --> 01:11:40,528
- Three, four...
1550
01:11:42,766 --> 01:11:45,733
¶ All alone again ¶
1551
01:11:45,735 --> 01:11:51,773
¶ In the evening time,
the feeling time ¶
1552
01:11:51,775 --> 01:11:53,708
- Samuel Billings,
1553
01:11:53,710 --> 01:11:55,810
the interpreter
of the voice of God.
1554
01:11:55,812 --> 01:11:57,979
I go to church.
I have my whole life.
1555
01:11:57,981 --> 01:11:59,914
I know God.
I know right from wrong,
1556
01:11:59,916 --> 01:12:03,384
but you, I can't even take you
seriously for a minute.
1557
01:12:03,386 --> 01:12:04,786
Was my son perfect?
1558
01:12:04,788 --> 01:12:08,556
No, but he didn't deserve
what he got.
1559
01:12:08,558 --> 01:12:09,991
I've seen you on television,
1560
01:12:09,993 --> 01:12:12,660
heard your interviews
on my son's case.
1561
01:12:12,662 --> 01:12:14,612
You're a performer.
1562
01:12:14,613 --> 01:12:16,563
Is this a church,
or is this a concert venue?
1563
01:12:16,566 --> 01:12:18,044
- All right, Mr. Sudermill.
1564
01:12:18,045 --> 01:12:19,523
Out of respect
for your situation,
1565
01:12:19,524 --> 01:12:21,002
I will allow what you said
to be forgotten,
1566
01:12:21,004 --> 01:12:22,837
but please don't let
this outfit fool you.
1567
01:12:22,839 --> 01:12:24,639
Jesus is still my Lord,
1568
01:12:24,641 --> 01:12:26,841
and if you keep going on
the route that you're going,
1569
01:12:26,843 --> 01:12:28,476
then the Lord
1570
01:12:28,478 --> 01:12:30,345
will have to protect you
from my next action.
1571
01:12:30,347 --> 01:12:31,746
- Are you threatening me?
- You come to this place
1572
01:12:31,748 --> 01:12:33,315
of worship
making accusations,
1573
01:12:33,316 --> 01:12:34,883
and you're asking me
about threats?
1574
01:12:34,884 --> 01:12:36,451
- Don't try to make this about
anything other than what it is.
1575
01:12:36,453 --> 01:12:38,420
- And what is that?
1576
01:12:38,421 --> 01:12:40,388
- I walked outside
my front door,
1577
01:12:40,389 --> 01:12:42,356
and I saw my son sitting in
a pool of his own blood.
1578
01:12:42,359 --> 01:12:45,693
I don't care what color
Kholi was. He murdered my son.
1579
01:12:45,695 --> 01:12:47,095
- Do you know how long kids
1580
01:12:47,097 --> 01:12:48,629
have been killing kids
outside of these doors?
1581
01:12:48,631 --> 01:12:51,099
- Is that supposed to help me?
1582
01:12:51,100 --> 01:12:53,568
I'm sorry about those kids.
I truly am, but my son is gone,
1583
01:12:53,570 --> 01:12:56,404
and my wife and I
have been drowning ever since
1584
01:12:56,406 --> 01:12:59,674
'cause he was taken, taken by
a monster, a monster that--
1585
01:12:59,676 --> 01:13:03,511
- Chalice Chandler Billings!
1586
01:13:04,147 --> 01:13:07,615
Sir, she was my daughter,
my heart!
1587
01:13:07,617 --> 01:13:11,586
I held her in my arms, okay?
I felt her body turn cold!
1588
01:13:12,455 --> 01:13:13,721
Two holes in her chest,
1589
01:13:13,723 --> 01:13:15,123
and she was only
seven years old.
1590
01:13:15,125 --> 01:13:16,924
Ask me if they solved her case.
1591
01:13:16,926 --> 01:13:19,727
Was this turned into
a Black Lives Matter campaign?
1592
01:13:19,729 --> 01:13:22,897
No. She wasn't gunned
down by a cop.
1593
01:13:22,899 --> 01:13:24,899
Was it a hate crime? No!
1594
01:13:24,901 --> 01:13:26,934
She was riding
on her Power Wheel,
1595
01:13:26,936 --> 01:13:28,970
like she does
every single morning.
1596
01:13:28,972 --> 01:13:33,508
I went inside to get her
a glass of juice. She was safe.
1597
01:13:33,910 --> 01:13:35,810
30 seconds, I came back,
1598
01:13:35,812 --> 01:13:38,679
and she was gone
just like that.
1599
01:13:38,681 --> 01:13:40,982
- You want me to say I'm sorry?
1600
01:13:40,984 --> 01:13:43,418
How terrible that must have
been for you.
1601
01:13:43,420 --> 01:13:45,420
- Mr. Sudermill, I don't want
anything from you, sir,
1602
01:13:45,422 --> 01:13:48,489
that you can't find
for yourself.
1603
01:13:49,459 --> 01:13:51,659
Your son is gone.
1604
01:13:51,661 --> 01:13:54,762
He's another bright light of
his creation just snuffed out
1605
01:13:54,764 --> 01:13:56,531
before he had
the chance to shine,
1606
01:13:56,533 --> 01:14:00,101
and we are all the lesser
for it, all of us.
1607
01:14:01,438 --> 01:14:02,970
You know,
1608
01:14:02,972 --> 01:14:05,506
you have to give yourself
permission to change course.
1609
01:14:08,111 --> 01:14:10,678
This is more than just a coat
of paint that I'm spraying,
1610
01:14:10,680 --> 01:14:12,613
Mr. Sudermill.
1611
01:14:14,651 --> 01:14:17,985
We may not be able to see
past each other's weakness...
1612
01:14:19,456 --> 01:14:21,656
But we can all find
common ground.
1613
01:14:32,135 --> 01:14:36,003
Father God, I come before you
in prayer, dear Lord,
1614
01:14:36,005 --> 01:14:37,238
to help us understand
the things
1615
01:14:37,240 --> 01:14:39,707
that we just don't understand.
1616
01:14:39,709 --> 01:14:42,577
Just give us the eyes to see
and the ears to hear
1617
01:14:42,579 --> 01:14:44,212
and the heart
to receive your truth
1618
01:14:44,214 --> 01:14:46,647
even when the situations
are tough.
1619
01:14:46,649 --> 01:14:49,150
We honor you, and we thank you
for this moment,
1620
01:14:49,152 --> 01:14:51,586
in Jesus' name, amen.
1621
01:14:52,522 --> 01:14:54,305
- We're debating
all this nonsense.
1622
01:14:54,306 --> 01:14:56,089
You're bringing race into it
that I don't think's fair.
1623
01:14:56,092 --> 01:14:58,393
It's getting away from us.
1624
01:14:58,394 --> 01:15:00,695
- You know, the body is still
in the morgue
1625
01:15:00,696 --> 01:15:02,997
because it's a part
of a crime investigation.
1626
01:15:02,999 --> 01:15:06,801
- We have the body
of Brian Sudermill
1627
01:15:06,803 --> 01:15:10,605
just deep freezing on ice.
1628
01:15:10,607 --> 01:15:13,908
- So they can't release
the body to the funeral home.
1629
01:15:13,910 --> 01:15:16,211
- Oh, that's so sad.
1630
01:15:16,212 --> 01:15:18,513
- Sometimes it takes tragedy
to really discover
1631
01:15:18,515 --> 01:15:21,048
what's the best
in humanity,
1632
01:15:21,050 --> 01:15:22,783
what's really ins--deep down
inside of us.
1633
01:15:22,785 --> 01:15:25,119
- Someone died,
so as we sit here, you know,
1634
01:15:25,121 --> 01:15:26,688
with all our theories
1635
01:15:26,689 --> 01:15:28,256
and everything playing
amateur Columbo,
1636
01:15:28,258 --> 01:15:30,258
I want to dedicate this program
to Brian Sudermill.
1637
01:15:30,260 --> 01:15:32,082
- And Kholi.
1638
01:15:32,083 --> 01:15:33,905
- Yeah, you remember
Brian's name.
1639
01:15:33,906 --> 01:15:35,728
- Who right now is sitting
in jail accused of a crime.
1640
01:15:35,732 --> 01:15:37,048
- I want to dedicate
this program
1641
01:15:37,049 --> 01:15:38,365
to the guy that was killed.
1642
01:15:38,366 --> 01:15:39,682
- Brian told me he'd be
heading out
1643
01:15:39,683 --> 01:15:40,999
to USC with some friends.
1644
01:15:41,004 --> 01:15:43,438
I figured he'd be
going off to college
1645
01:15:43,439 --> 01:15:45,873
on a basketball scholarship
come summer anyway.
1646
01:15:45,875 --> 01:15:48,142
He was ready,
so I figured sure.
1647
01:15:48,945 --> 01:15:51,679
He took off around 6:00.
Turns out he stayed
1648
01:15:51,681 --> 01:15:53,748
right in town
to go to a party that night.
1649
01:15:53,750 --> 01:15:56,984
- And when you opened
the front door?
1650
01:15:56,986 --> 01:15:59,854
- I thought I saw a ghost
1651
01:15:59,856 --> 01:16:01,956
because that couldn't be my boy
laying there, no way.
1652
01:16:01,958 --> 01:16:06,661
I mean, things like this don't
happen to boys like Brian, no.
1653
01:16:06,663 --> 01:16:08,296
I mean, we live
in a good neighborhood.
1654
01:16:08,298 --> 01:16:10,097
This can't happen in Winnetka.
1655
01:16:10,099 --> 01:16:12,667
This is exactly
why we left Indiana.
1656
01:16:12,669 --> 01:16:16,337
And then I see the blood
pooling up behind his head.
1657
01:16:17,106 --> 01:16:21,108
There's a hole going right
through him, right...
1658
01:16:21,110 --> 01:16:23,177
right here.
1659
01:16:23,179 --> 01:16:24,695
He should have been
playing ball this weekend.
1660
01:16:24,696 --> 01:16:26,212
You know, he's been
talking about his game
1661
01:16:26,215 --> 01:16:28,215
every night over dinner.
1662
01:16:28,217 --> 01:16:32,219
I'd--I'd hugged him
just a few hours earlier.
1663
01:16:35,325 --> 01:16:39,126
- And did you see
anybody else out there?
1664
01:16:41,030 --> 01:16:43,130
- Yes.
1665
01:16:44,100 --> 01:16:45,833
I didn't get a good look
at him at first.
1666
01:16:45,835 --> 01:16:47,985
All I saw was blood.
1667
01:16:47,986 --> 01:16:50,136
I saw his--his legs,
his--his chest, his hands.
1668
01:16:50,139 --> 01:16:52,607
They were all painted red.
1669
01:16:52,609 --> 01:16:56,844
And when I got a good look
at his face...
1670
01:16:56,846 --> 01:16:58,713
it was blank.
1671
01:16:58,715 --> 01:17:01,182
- Can you point him out
in the court today?
1672
01:17:08,091 --> 01:17:11,959
- Mr. Sudermill,
you've already lost a son.
1673
01:17:11,961 --> 01:17:15,696
Here I risk losing mine.
1674
01:17:16,265 --> 01:17:19,033
Sir, did you see Kholi Styles
pull the trigger?
1675
01:17:19,669 --> 01:17:22,670
- No.
- So you heard the gunshot,
1676
01:17:22,672 --> 01:17:25,139
but you didn't come downstairs
right away, correct?
1677
01:17:25,141 --> 01:17:27,842
- We don't hear guns
in my neighborhood.
1678
01:17:27,844 --> 01:17:30,461
It was a bit startling.
1679
01:17:30,462 --> 01:17:33,079
- So how long after the time
that you heard the gunshot
1680
01:17:33,082 --> 01:17:35,082
before you'd gone outside?
1681
01:17:35,084 --> 01:17:38,736
- Five minutes.
- Mm.
1682
01:17:38,737 --> 01:17:42,389
So five minutes after you heard
the gunshot you went downstairs
1683
01:17:42,392 --> 01:17:45,726
to see the person that
you believed to be the killer?
1684
01:17:45,728 --> 01:17:47,194
- Yes, I saw your son.
1685
01:17:47,196 --> 01:17:49,797
I believe I made
that quite clear.
1686
01:17:50,133 --> 01:17:52,150
- Sir, what is the likelihood
that someone
1687
01:17:52,151 --> 01:17:54,168
who had just committed
a murder would stick around
1688
01:17:54,170 --> 01:17:57,805
for five whole minutes
at the crime scene?
1689
01:17:57,807 --> 01:17:59,674
Wouldn't they run away
immediately?
1690
01:17:59,676 --> 01:18:02,677
- Mr. Styles, I'm
a professional psychologist.
1691
01:18:02,679 --> 01:18:05,813
People do all kinds of things
for unexplained reasons.
1692
01:18:05,815 --> 01:18:07,348
What is it that
you want me to do,
1693
01:18:07,350 --> 01:18:10,351
provide an alibi for your son?
1694
01:18:11,220 --> 01:18:13,320
- And how do you know
he was a drug pusher?
1695
01:18:13,322 --> 01:18:16,791
- A friend of mine bought
from him, got screwed over.
1696
01:18:16,793 --> 01:18:21,362
- So it's likely that Brian
had enemies, huh?
1697
01:18:21,364 --> 01:18:24,231
- Objection.
This is all hearsay.
1698
01:18:24,233 --> 01:18:26,534
How about we just stick
to the night in question?
1699
01:18:26,535 --> 01:18:28,836
- Your Honor, can I get just
a little bit of leeway here?
1700
01:18:28,838 --> 01:18:30,838
- I'll allow it for now.
1701
01:18:30,840 --> 01:18:35,443
- Miss Swanson, you invited
Kholi to your party personally?
1702
01:18:35,445 --> 01:18:37,978
- He seemed like a nice guy.
1703
01:18:37,980 --> 01:18:41,449
- And how did he get along with
the other guests at the party?
1704
01:18:41,451 --> 01:18:45,019
- He blended in just fine.
People seemed to like him.
1705
01:18:45,021 --> 01:18:47,205
- Now, he'd been drinking.
1706
01:18:47,206 --> 01:18:49,390
Did the intoxication
affect his temper?
1707
01:18:49,392 --> 01:18:54,228
- No. He was a fun drunk,
not a mean drunk.
1708
01:18:54,230 --> 01:18:57,198
- Now, were you ever at all
intimate with him that evening?
1709
01:18:57,200 --> 01:18:58,983
- Objection, Your Honor.
1710
01:18:58,984 --> 01:19:00,767
- Building to the
suspect's state of mind moments
1711
01:19:00,770 --> 01:19:02,970
before the incident,
Your Honor.
1712
01:19:02,972 --> 01:19:04,271
- What's that got
to do with this?
1713
01:19:04,273 --> 01:19:06,173
- Mr. Canton?
1714
01:19:06,175 --> 01:19:08,809
- Sorry, Judge. It's fine.
It's fine, Judge.
1715
01:19:08,811 --> 01:19:13,314
He's just grasping at straws.
I say let him grasp.
1716
01:19:13,316 --> 01:19:16,517
- Objection withdrawn.
- We kissed.
1717
01:19:16,519 --> 01:19:18,285
- That's it?
- That's it.
1718
01:19:18,287 --> 01:19:20,821
- He was respectful?
- Yes.
1719
01:19:20,823 --> 01:19:22,990
- So you felt safe
in his company?
1720
01:19:25,762 --> 01:19:28,395
- Yes, I did.
1721
01:19:30,800 --> 01:19:32,500
- You're sure that's
the vehicle you saw leaving
1722
01:19:32,502 --> 01:19:34,401
the scene
of the crime that night?
1723
01:19:34,403 --> 01:19:38,005
- Yes, sir, that's the car.
- No more questions.
1724
01:19:38,007 --> 01:19:42,810
- Uh-oh, it seems as though we
got ourselves a ghost car here.
1725
01:19:43,980 --> 01:19:47,448
Stop me when I've said
something that isn't true.
1726
01:19:47,450 --> 01:19:49,884
You don't know
who the car belongs to.
1727
01:19:49,886 --> 01:19:53,387
You didn't bother to write
a license plate number down.
1728
01:19:53,389 --> 01:19:55,923
And as far as you know,
this car could have
1729
01:19:55,925 --> 01:19:57,925
just been passing
through the neighborhood.
1730
01:19:57,927 --> 01:20:01,862
- No, I saw it was stopped.
Then it took off.
1731
01:20:01,864 --> 01:20:03,464
- Uh-huh.
1732
01:20:03,466 --> 01:20:07,001
Let me ask you, how thick
are those glasses, anyway?
1733
01:20:11,007 --> 01:20:12,863
- I can't stay here.
1734
01:20:12,864 --> 01:20:14,720
You think they
gonna give me life?
1735
01:20:14,721 --> 01:20:16,577
- Life, like all things,
is fleeting.
1736
01:20:16,579 --> 01:20:19,847
Once you realize that life is
but a small drop in the glass
1737
01:20:19,849 --> 01:20:22,283
of your whole existence,
the sooner you'll be at peace
1738
01:20:22,285 --> 01:20:24,385
with the prospect
of letting go.
1739
01:20:24,387 --> 01:20:28,355
You are a man of God.
I am a man of God.
1740
01:20:28,357 --> 01:20:30,591
There are those
that are nonbelievers.
1741
01:20:30,593 --> 01:20:35,095
What they do is they just keep
running towards a cliff
1742
01:20:35,097 --> 01:20:36,497
when there's nothing up ahead.
1743
01:20:36,499 --> 01:20:40,367
They're scared all the way,
but not us.
1744
01:20:41,237 --> 01:20:43,571
We fall back on faith.
1745
01:20:44,607 --> 01:20:47,074
Whether it comes today
or 50 years from now
1746
01:20:47,076 --> 01:20:49,510
makes no difference.
1747
01:20:49,512 --> 01:20:51,579
We're gonna keep on running.
1748
01:20:51,581 --> 01:20:55,316
We're gonna stand
on this faith.
1749
01:20:56,152 --> 01:21:02,256
Our Father which art in heaven,
hallowed be thy name.
1750
01:21:02,258 --> 01:21:05,125
Thy kingdom come.
Thy will be done on Earth
1751
01:21:05,127 --> 01:21:07,361
as it is in heaven.
1752
01:21:08,064 --> 01:21:11,432
Give us this day
our daily bread
1753
01:21:11,434 --> 01:21:15,069
and forgive our trespasses,
as we forgive those who...
1754
01:21:15,071 --> 01:21:17,137
Trespassed against us.
1755
01:21:17,139 --> 01:21:21,542
Lead us not into temptation,
and deliver us from evil,
1756
01:21:21,544 --> 01:21:26,180
for thine is the kingdom,
the power, and the glory.
1757
01:21:26,182 --> 01:21:29,183
- In Jesus' precious name.
1758
01:21:29,185 --> 01:21:32,887
Our Father who art in heaven,
hallowed by thy name.
1759
01:21:32,889 --> 01:21:36,290
- I love you.
We're gonna get through this.
1760
01:21:36,292 --> 01:21:38,025
Now, when we get in here,
you're gonna be
1761
01:21:38,027 --> 01:21:40,294
under a microscope.
It's not what they know.
1762
01:21:40,296 --> 01:21:42,663
It's what they can prove,
right?
1763
01:21:42,665 --> 01:21:44,565
Now, every remark that is made,
1764
01:21:44,567 --> 01:21:47,301
they're gonna be looking to you
for your reaction,
1765
01:21:47,303 --> 01:21:50,004
and that's how they're gonna
make their call,
1766
01:21:50,006 --> 01:21:54,308
so 25 % is what they hear.
1767
01:21:54,310 --> 01:21:58,312
75 % is what they see,
1768
01:21:58,314 --> 01:22:01,415
so let's make sure they see
the right thing, all right?
1769
01:22:01,417 --> 01:22:04,518
Don't slouch.
You look good. You ready?
1770
01:22:06,489 --> 01:22:08,455
- I love you.
- I love you too, son.
1771
01:22:08,457 --> 01:22:10,958
- Mr. Styles, have you
any more witnesses?
1772
01:22:12,161 --> 01:22:15,930
- I'd like to call to
the stand Kholi Styles.
1773
01:22:28,544 --> 01:22:31,979
- Mr. Styles, please raise
your hand and repeat.
1774
01:22:31,981 --> 01:22:34,014
Do you swear to tell the truth,
the whole truth,
1775
01:22:34,016 --> 01:22:36,717
and nothing but the truth,
so help you, God?
1776
01:22:37,453 --> 01:22:39,520
- I do.
- Please sit.
1777
01:22:42,525 --> 01:22:49,596
¶ ¶
1778
01:22:51,334 --> 01:22:52,633
- Son.
1779
01:22:57,306 --> 01:23:02,109
Are you a God-loving man?
1780
01:23:02,111 --> 01:23:04,278
- Yes.
1781
01:23:07,249 --> 01:23:10,050
- Then you will be vindicated.
1782
01:23:19,228 --> 01:23:22,196
The defense rests.
1783
01:23:28,738 --> 01:23:32,139
- Mr. Canton, do you wish
to cross-examine?
1784
01:23:42,752 --> 01:23:44,752
- No more questions,
Your Honor.
1785
01:23:44,754 --> 01:23:47,454
- Very well.
As it's already after 4:00,
1786
01:23:47,456 --> 01:23:50,057
we'll recess for the day
and start
1787
01:23:50,059 --> 01:23:53,394
with closing arguments
first thing in the morning.
1788
01:24:01,103 --> 01:24:03,037
- Can you imagine what
Mr. Styles is going through
1789
01:24:03,039 --> 01:24:05,672
with his son locked up?
- Exactly.
1790
01:24:05,674 --> 01:24:08,042
- By all accounts
a promising guy,
1791
01:24:08,043 --> 01:24:10,411
this guy, he's on his way up,
the father, in my neighborhood,
1792
01:24:10,413 --> 01:24:13,180
and this--this nightmare.
1793
01:24:13,182 --> 01:24:16,116
And then, of course,
coming up this weekend,
1794
01:24:16,118 --> 01:24:18,652
the Sudermill family
is gonna bury their son.
1795
01:24:21,557 --> 01:24:22,689
- ¶ So you can try

1797
01:24:28,264 --> 01:24:30,414
- Hello?
1798
01:24:30,415 --> 01:24:32,565
- Detective, I didn't want
to do that to Kholi.
1799
01:24:32,568 --> 01:24:34,279
They blackmailed me.
1800
01:24:34,280 --> 01:24:35,991
- MayMay?
- Check this out.
1801
01:24:35,992 --> 01:24:37,703
I saw that boy and his girl
fighting that night.
1802
01:24:37,706 --> 01:24:39,373
- Can we have a conversation
about this?
1803
01:24:39,375 --> 01:24:40,507
- I did have
a conversation with you.
1804
01:24:40,509 --> 01:24:42,076
There's nothing to talk about.
1805
01:24:42,078 --> 01:24:43,277
- I barely spoke.
1806
01:24:43,278 --> 01:24:44,477
- Do you want me
to take care of that thing?
1807
01:24:44,480 --> 01:24:45,996
- Don't do that.
1808
01:24:45,997 --> 01:24:47,513
- Do you think
that this is a good idea?
1809
01:24:47,516 --> 01:24:49,249
I guarantee you,
you will screw this up.
1810
01:24:49,251 --> 01:24:51,085
- I don't think
it's a good idea. I just--
1811
01:24:51,087 --> 01:24:52,619
- Can I help you, man?
- Oh, no, I'm good.
1812
01:24:52,621 --> 01:24:54,188
I have go to college
next year.
1813
01:24:54,190 --> 01:24:55,506
- Are you kidding me?
1814
01:24:55,507 --> 01:24:56,823
- I have to go
to college next year.
1815
01:24:56,824 --> 01:24:58,140
- I understand what
you have to do.
1816
01:24:58,141 --> 01:24:59,457
- I got a scholarship!
1817
01:24:59,462 --> 01:25:00,737
- Do you think that this is
something that I wanted--
1818
01:25:00,738 --> 01:25:02,013
- It doesn't matter
what you want me to do!
1819
01:25:02,014 --> 01:25:03,289
This conversation is over,
1820
01:25:03,290 --> 01:25:04,565
and I don't want to hear
anything about it.
1821
01:25:04,567 --> 01:25:05,866
- She's pregnant?
1822
01:25:05,868 --> 01:25:07,634
- I don't know. I guess so.
1823
01:25:07,636 --> 01:25:09,336
- You saying you think
1824
01:25:09,337 --> 01:25:11,037
Liz may have had
something to do with this?
1825
01:25:11,038 --> 01:25:12,738
- I don't know, man.
I'm just saying.
1826
01:25:12,741 --> 01:25:14,564
I found out her uncle's a cop.
1827
01:25:14,565 --> 01:25:16,388
I don't know
if he had something to do
1828
01:25:16,389 --> 01:25:18,212
with what happened to me
or if those cops
1829
01:25:18,214 --> 01:25:19,970
were just focusing
on the black boy in the room,
1830
01:25:19,971 --> 01:25:21,727
but they made me say
those things there.
1831
01:25:21,728 --> 01:25:23,484
They made me. I know
Kholi ain't popped nobody.
1832
01:25:23,486 --> 01:25:26,120
Look, man, I got to go.
- MayMay, wait. MayMay?

1835
01:25:31,393 --> 01:25:34,294
Come on,
Jackie, pick up the phone!
1836
01:25:34,296 --> 01:25:36,330
- ¶ Pay me my money,
I'm patiently humble ¶
1837
01:25:36,331 --> 01:25:38,365
¶ And hungry, evasive
by sharing my feelings ¶
1838
01:25:38,367 --> 01:25:41,252
¶ I don't trust no one ¶
1839
01:25:41,253 --> 01:25:44,138
¶ But complaining is not
in my mental... ¶
1840
01:25:44,140 --> 01:25:51,278
¶ ¶
1841
01:25:54,216 --> 01:25:55,549
- Hey, can I help you?
- Yeah, can I talk
1842
01:25:55,551 --> 01:25:56,884
to Elizabeth Chu, please?
1843
01:25:56,886 --> 01:25:58,819
My name is Frank Kosinsky,
all right?
1844
01:25:58,821 --> 01:26:00,721
I'm a private detective,
and I have reason to believe
1845
01:26:00,723 --> 01:26:02,523
Liz might have information
that can clear my client.
1846
01:26:02,525 --> 01:26:03,924
- Information?
- Yeah.
1847
01:26:03,925 --> 01:26:05,324
- What are you talking about?
What client?
1848
01:26:05,327 --> 01:26:07,161
- Kholi Styles.
1849
01:26:07,163 --> 01:26:08,629
- The boy who murdered
Brian Sudermill?
1850
01:26:08,631 --> 01:26:10,164
- Allegedly.
1851
01:26:10,165 --> 01:26:11,698
- Get off my porch.
- No, please, sir,
1852
01:26:11,700 --> 01:26:14,151
if you just get
Liz, we can clear--
1853
01:26:14,152 --> 01:26:16,603
- Look, Kosinsky or whatever
your name is, you understand
1854
01:26:16,605 --> 01:26:18,222
I'm a police officer, right?
1855
01:26:18,223 --> 01:26:19,840
Now, I can have you
on the ground and in cuffs
1856
01:26:19,842 --> 01:26:22,376
before you can
even say harassment. Walk away.
1857
01:26:22,378 --> 01:26:23,928
- No, you don't understand.
1858
01:26:23,929 --> 01:26:25,479
A young boy's life
is in danger!
1859
01:26:25,481 --> 01:26:28,098
A mathematician ¶
1860
01:26:28,099 --> 01:26:30,716
¶ Quicken the rhythm, a taking
the money magician ¶
1861
01:26:30,719 --> 01:26:32,542
- Elizabeth?
1862
01:26:32,543 --> 01:26:34,366
- ¶ Which is being focused
and making better decisions ¶
1863
01:26:34,367 --> 01:26:36,190
¶ Hoo, trust the game
of true precision ¶
1864
01:26:36,192 --> 01:26:38,659
¶ I used to be, I had focus
to turn my life around ¶
1865
01:26:38,661 --> 01:26:39,660
- Liz!
- Hey!
1866
01:26:39,662 --> 01:26:41,028
- Wait, man, wait!
1867
01:26:41,029 --> 01:26:42,395
- Don't move!
- Wait, wait!
1868
01:26:42,396 --> 01:26:43,762
- Don't move!
- Okay, okay!
1869
01:26:43,766 --> 01:26:45,365
- Liz, you okay, baby?
- She's not here, man.
1870
01:26:45,367 --> 01:26:46,500
There's a letter.
1871
01:26:46,502 --> 01:26:47,701
- Stay still.
1872
01:26:47,703 --> 01:26:49,736
- Check the nightstand, man.
1873
01:26:49,738 --> 01:26:51,471
- What'd you do to her?
1874
01:26:51,473 --> 01:26:53,507
- Man, there's a letter.
Please read the letter.
1875
01:26:53,509 --> 01:26:54,808
- Get down.
1876
01:26:54,810 --> 01:26:57,244
- Just check the nightstand.
1877
01:26:58,214 --> 01:27:01,315
- Stay down!
Stay on your stomach!
1878
01:27:05,688 --> 01:27:07,588
- I made a mistake.
1879
01:27:07,589 --> 01:27:09,489
But now I know I need
to reveal the truth.
1880
01:27:09,491 --> 01:27:10,657
- She wrote that.
1881
01:27:10,659 --> 01:27:14,077
- Be quiet!
1882
01:27:14,078 --> 01:27:17,496
- I'm not a bad person.
This was not in my intentions.
1883
01:27:17,499 --> 01:27:19,833
- What'd you do to her?
- I didn't do anything, man!
1884
01:27:19,835 --> 01:27:22,836
- What'd you do to her?!
- That's her handwriting!
1885
01:27:26,508 --> 01:27:28,992
- ¶ Stay down ¶
1886
01:27:28,993 --> 01:27:31,477
¶ Till we came up,
ay-ya-ya-ya ¶
1887
01:27:38,654 --> 01:27:41,288
- Uncle Hank, Aunt Rose,
I'm sorry.
1888
01:27:41,290 --> 01:27:43,924
I'm sure I'll see you again,
but for now so long.
1889
01:27:43,926 --> 01:27:45,593
- That's enough, Liz.
1890
01:27:45,594 --> 01:27:47,261
- Can we just have one
conversation about this--
1891
01:27:47,263 --> 01:27:48,528
- We've talked about it
20 times.
1892
01:27:48,530 --> 01:27:50,030
- He seemed like a nice guy.
1893
01:27:50,032 --> 01:27:52,432
- Did you feel safe around
Kholi
1894
01:27:52,434 --> 01:27:54,468
after what had transpired?
1895
01:27:54,470 --> 01:27:57,404
- No. I didn't.
1896
01:27:57,406 --> 01:27:59,806
Nobody can say
he didn't have it coming.
1897
01:27:59,808 --> 01:28:01,942
He pissed off a lot of people,
1898
01:28:01,944 --> 01:28:04,011
but he was good to me,
and I loved him.
1899
01:28:04,013 --> 01:28:08,048
- I have been shocked
at the rush to judgment
1900
01:28:08,050 --> 01:28:11,551
that has been going on
all along the way.
1901
01:28:11,553 --> 01:28:13,754
I'm gonna quote my mother
1902
01:28:13,755 --> 01:28:15,956
and just say shame,
shame, shame.
1903
01:28:15,958 --> 01:28:18,275
There's plenty of blame
to go around.
1904
01:28:18,276 --> 01:28:20,593
Those who were wagging
their fingers, pointing them,
1905
01:28:20,596 --> 01:28:23,430
those who did not lend a hand,
1906
01:28:23,432 --> 01:28:26,066
who were too slow
to solve the problem.
1907
01:28:27,436 --> 01:28:29,814
Lord help us all.
1908
01:28:29,815 --> 01:28:32,193
- When Kholi got arrested,
I tried to convince myself
1909
01:28:32,194 --> 01:28:34,572
I didn't care.
I had to do what I had to do.
1910
01:28:39,315 --> 01:28:42,316
- Good morning to the people
of the city of Chicago.
1911
01:28:42,318 --> 01:28:45,952
It is so wonderful to see
so many of you here
1912
01:28:45,954 --> 01:28:48,588
celebrating the life
of this young man.
1913
01:28:48,590 --> 01:28:52,426
Yes, that is what I said.
That's right. I said celebrate.
1914
01:28:52,795 --> 01:28:54,461
I mean, to the naked eye,
it is a tragedy
1915
01:28:54,463 --> 01:28:58,732
that this young man's life
be cut so short,
1916
01:28:58,734 --> 01:29:01,501
but we're here
with soulful eyes,
1917
01:29:01,503 --> 01:29:03,570
and soulful eyes see
that this young man
1918
01:29:03,572 --> 01:29:05,472
has gone to be with the Lord.
1919
01:29:05,474 --> 01:29:10,477
- Thanks for the ride anyway.
It was enlightening.
1920
01:29:10,479 --> 01:29:12,779
- Anytime you want to talk.
- I mean, just think.
1921
01:29:12,781 --> 01:29:15,749
I mean, we can only speculate
1922
01:29:15,751 --> 01:29:18,452
what the face of Jesus
looks like.
1923
01:29:25,427 --> 01:29:27,761
- I need to talk to you
face to face.
1924
01:29:27,763 --> 01:29:29,096
- Do I have to?
1925
01:29:29,098 --> 01:29:31,898
- I'm already here. Please?
1926
01:29:35,571 --> 01:29:37,037
- I got a killer hangover,
1927
01:29:37,039 --> 01:29:38,756
and on top of that
you're gonna yell at me,
1928
01:29:38,757 --> 01:29:40,474
so can we please
just do this some other time?
1929
01:29:40,476 --> 01:29:43,577
- I love you so much, Brian.
- You already know
1930
01:29:43,579 --> 01:29:45,145
I'm going to college next year.
1931
01:29:45,147 --> 01:29:46,780
Liz, I got a scholarship
at State.
1932
01:29:46,782 --> 01:29:49,015
I don't need this on my mind.
1933
01:29:50,953 --> 01:29:52,919
- Then I'll take care
of it myself.
1934
01:29:52,921 --> 01:29:54,654
- No, you won't.
1935
01:29:54,656 --> 01:29:56,523
You don't do anything
for yourself.
1936
01:29:56,525 --> 01:29:58,100
You'll take care of it
for a few weeks,
1937
01:29:58,101 --> 01:29:59,676
and then you'll come knocking
at my door,
1938
01:29:59,677 --> 01:30:01,252
and that's not fair to me
1939
01:30:01,253 --> 01:30:02,828
because
I never asked to have a kid!
1940
01:30:02,831 --> 01:30:04,398
- You don't want me?
1941
01:30:04,400 --> 01:30:07,100
- Please just--
just get rid of the baby.
1942
01:30:07,102 --> 01:30:09,603
- Oh, he forgot his wallet.
1943
01:30:11,006 --> 01:30:12,506
- Liz, I have a life to start.
1944
01:30:12,507 --> 01:30:14,007
Now, you can come along
if you want,
1945
01:30:14,009 --> 01:30:16,910
but if not, that's on you.
1946
01:30:16,912 --> 01:30:21,415
I'm tired, and I'm hungover.
I'm going to bed.
1947
01:30:22,785 --> 01:30:24,618
Bye, Liz.
1948
01:30:24,620 --> 01:30:26,653
- I'm gonna drop this
off real quick.
1949
01:30:26,655 --> 01:30:29,489
- Well, make it quick.
I'm tired, bro. I'm beat.
1950
01:30:39,568 --> 01:30:41,501
- Liz?
1951
01:30:41,503 --> 01:30:44,538
- Brian? Brian?
1952
01:30:44,539 --> 01:30:47,574
- Yo, dawg, seriously?
- Please don't do this.
1953
01:30:49,978 --> 01:30:51,678
No, wait. Liz!
1954
01:30:53,615 --> 01:30:55,148
- What do we look like
with this right here?
1955
01:30:55,150 --> 01:30:56,983
This is not a good look, fam.
We got to go.
1956
01:30:56,985 --> 01:30:58,585
- No, man, we can't
just leave him.
1957
01:30:58,586 --> 01:31:00,186
- Oh, man,
what you talking about, man?
1958
01:31:00,187 --> 01:31:01,787
Think about it, right?
I've seen this.
1959
01:31:01,790 --> 01:31:03,590
Kholi, man, let's go.
1960
01:31:03,592 --> 01:31:06,226
- You know I ain't clean, man.
This all they need, man.
1961
01:31:06,228 --> 01:31:08,495
- Yo, Kholi, are you coming?
- Come on, man.
1962
01:31:08,497 --> 01:31:09,863
We got to help him.
1963
01:31:09,865 --> 01:31:10,864
- He's dead, Kholi.
Get in the car.
1964
01:31:10,866 --> 01:31:12,622
- Kholi.
1965
01:31:12,623 --> 01:31:14,379
- I mean, look
at your neighbor.
1966
01:31:14,380 --> 01:31:16,136
- You writing your
own ticket, dawg.
1967
01:31:16,138 --> 01:31:18,672
- Our eyes are our shackles,
ladies and gentlemen.
1968
01:31:19,741 --> 01:31:22,031
- Help!
1969
01:31:22,032 --> 01:31:24,322
- It will only be on the day
1970
01:31:24,323 --> 01:31:26,613
that we can look at each other
and see the Lord...
1971
01:31:27,149 --> 01:31:29,616
- Brian?
- That we will be free.
1972
01:31:32,754 --> 01:31:35,088
- Mr. Styles, Mr. Styles.
- No major head injury,
1973
01:31:35,090 --> 01:31:36,957
but he had a collapsed lung.
1974
01:31:36,958 --> 01:31:38,825
We had to insert a chest tube
in order to re-expand it.
1975
01:31:38,827 --> 01:31:41,027
- Is he going into surgery?
- No, that'd make it worse.
1976
01:31:48,003 --> 01:31:50,170
- Back up! Back up! Back up!
Back up!
1977
01:31:54,910 --> 01:31:56,676
- Make way, please.
1978
01:31:59,915 --> 01:32:02,015
- Hey. Thank you for coming.
1979
01:32:02,017 --> 01:32:06,887
- He's endured a lot of trauma.
It's still too soon to tell.
1980
01:32:06,889 --> 01:32:08,822
I'm sorry.
1981
01:32:15,230 --> 01:32:18,732
- Good morning, Chicago.
Drown out the social media.
1982
01:32:18,734 --> 01:32:20,600
Turn off the television.
1983
01:32:20,602 --> 01:32:25,105
Get into the silence, and
when you tap into that silence,
1984
01:32:25,107 --> 01:32:27,891
listen to your own heartbeat.
1985
01:32:27,892 --> 01:32:30,676
- ¶ Help me to find
the right words to say ¶
1986
01:32:30,679 --> 01:32:32,913
- Listen to the times
where you needed someone
1987
01:32:32,915 --> 01:32:35,749
to show you grace
and no one was there.
1988
01:32:35,951 --> 01:32:37,884
Be the change you want to see.
1989
01:32:37,886 --> 01:32:39,998
- Mr. Canton! Mr. Canton!
1990
01:32:39,999 --> 01:32:42,111
Anything to say about
the trial?
1991
01:32:42,112 --> 01:32:44,224
- This is a day for mourning,
not a day for politics.
1992
01:32:44,226 --> 01:32:47,694
No more questions.
Please excuse us.
1993
01:32:47,696 --> 01:32:50,230
- So please offer your eyes
1994
01:32:50,232 --> 01:32:53,833
and ears to
our friend, Mr. Jackie Styles.
1995
01:32:53,835 --> 01:32:56,870
- ¶ I just want to fly with
healing stars ¶
1996
01:32:56,872 --> 01:33:00,674
¶ Too many battles,
no strength to fight ¶
1997
01:33:00,676 --> 01:33:02,976
¶ ¶
1998
01:33:02,978 --> 01:33:07,747
- I stand here today having
been challenged as a father.
1999
01:33:07,749 --> 01:33:10,984
Such a young life was lost
in such cold fashion
2000
01:33:10,986 --> 01:33:15,655
because of the lack of warmth
in the hearts of humanity.
2001
01:33:16,658 --> 01:33:19,593
Some would say we live
in a fallen world,
2002
01:33:19,595 --> 01:33:23,863
but as I stand here
and look out,
2003
01:33:23,865 --> 01:33:28,868
I can't help but see hope
for a brighter day.
2004
01:33:30,205 --> 01:33:36,209
He did that, and although
he lies sound asleep,
2005
01:33:36,211 --> 01:33:38,378
his voice is louder than ever,
2006
01:33:38,380 --> 01:33:42,983
strongly urging us
to fight our hate,
2007
01:33:42,985 --> 01:33:46,886
to live better than our
ancestors could have imagined.
2008
01:33:48,056 --> 01:33:53,059
To the Sudermills, to Brian,
2009
01:33:53,061 --> 01:33:57,230
let us lift them up in prayer,
2010
01:33:57,232 --> 01:34:00,400
and extend a hand towards them.
2011
01:34:00,402 --> 01:34:04,671
To a young man who was loved
so much,
2012
01:34:04,673 --> 01:34:06,840
we say goodnight.
2013
01:34:06,842 --> 01:34:08,174
- Slide, I'ma let you slide.
2014
01:34:08,176 --> 01:34:10,944
- We will see you
in the morning,
2015
01:34:10,946 --> 01:34:15,248
and to the world, I stand here,
and I say good morning.
2016
01:34:16,118 --> 01:34:18,652
We are just getting started.
2017
01:34:21,189 --> 01:34:24,391
- ¶ I know I'm broken ¶
2018
01:34:24,393 --> 01:34:27,227
¶ My heart has fallen so far ¶
2019
01:34:27,229 --> 01:34:31,131
¶ I need your love
to life me up ¶
2020
01:34:31,133 --> 01:34:33,199
¶ Hurrah ¶
2021
01:34:33,201 --> 01:34:36,403
¶ I know I'm broken ¶
2022
01:34:36,405 --> 01:34:38,905
- Listen to your
own heartbeat.
2023
01:34:38,907 --> 01:34:40,940
Listen to the times
where you needed someone
2024
01:34:40,942 --> 01:34:43,677
to show you grace
and no one was there.
2025
01:34:47,115 --> 01:34:49,583
And when you hear
that heartbeat,
2026
01:34:49,584 --> 01:34:52,052
you'll see that the heartbeats
don't tell us whether or not
2027
01:34:52,054 --> 01:34:54,204
we're innocent or guilty.
2028
01:34:54,205 --> 01:34:56,355
It just says that
we're humans.
2029
01:34:58,226 --> 01:35:01,361
And so I have a special
message for you, Kholi.
2030
01:35:01,363 --> 01:35:05,298
I want you to know that
the cloud over your head today
2031
01:35:05,300 --> 01:35:08,301
will be the water
you drink from tomorrow.
2032
01:35:08,970 --> 01:35:11,237
- I love you.
2033
01:35:11,239 --> 01:35:13,306
We're gonna get through this.
2034
01:35:13,307 --> 01:35:15,374
- ¶ My heart has fallen
so far ¶
2035
01:35:15,377 --> 01:35:19,212
¶ I need your love
to lift me up ¶
2036
01:35:19,214 --> 01:35:22,148
¶ High, lift me up ¶
2037
01:35:22,150 --> 01:35:25,985
¶ Love lifts me up ¶
2038
01:35:25,987 --> 01:35:29,022
¶ Love lifts me up ¶
2039
01:35:29,024 --> 01:35:31,925
¶ Love lifts me up ¶
2040
01:35:31,927 --> 01:35:33,927
¶ High ¶
2041
01:35:39,501 --> 01:35:42,335
- I'm Holland.
- I'm Bree.
2042
01:35:42,337 --> 01:35:43,937
- And today we're
at Soundscape...
2043
01:35:43,939 --> 01:35:45,105
Studios.
2044
01:35:45,107 --> 01:35:47,006
- In Chicago.
- Yeah.
2045
01:35:47,876 --> 01:35:50,477
- ¶ Ain't nothing to it
but to do it ¶
2046
01:35:50,479 --> 01:35:53,413
¶ That slow motion
got you dragging ¶
2047
01:35:53,415 --> 01:35:56,282
¶ Now you can take the time,
just do it ¶
2048
01:35:56,284 --> 01:35:58,351
¶ Do it, do it, do it ¶
2049
01:35:58,353 --> 01:36:00,787
- We have X equals 24.
2050
01:36:00,789 --> 01:36:02,889
Then what does that
give us for Y?
2051
01:36:03,391 --> 01:36:05,158
- Oh, Ms. Deese, 33.
2052
01:36:05,160 --> 01:36:08,795
- Of course, Paulina, 33.
Very good.
2053
01:36:11,299 --> 01:36:13,533
Anyone? Ah, Kholi?
2054
01:36:13,535 --> 01:36:16,436
- 42 squared, Ms. Deese.
- Very good.
2055
01:36:17,372 --> 01:36:19,839
- Welcome to Friendly Hills
High School, Kholi.
2056
01:36:19,841 --> 01:36:21,141
Well, tell you what.
2057
01:36:21,143 --> 01:36:23,126
Just have a seat
right over there.
2058
01:36:23,127 --> 01:36:25,110
- ¶ Put my trust in God
for a breakthrough ¶
2059
01:36:25,113 --> 01:36:27,881
¶ You could try if you want to,
it ain't... ¶
2060
01:36:27,883 --> 01:36:29,849
- What is the first thing
America thinks of
2061
01:36:29,851 --> 01:36:31,951
when they hear
the word "minority?"
2062
01:36:31,953 --> 01:36:33,987
- Professional sports.
2063
01:36:33,988 --> 01:36:36,022
Cable channels
from the number 200 and up.
2064
01:36:36,024 --> 01:36:37,257
The people who wash our cars.
2065
01:36:37,259 --> 01:36:38,925
Ticket, ticket, ticket.
2066
01:36:40,562 --> 01:36:42,462
- That's why some folks
in Winnetka
2067
01:36:42,464 --> 01:36:44,464
are trying to keep an eye
on Kholi Styles.
2068
01:36:44,466 --> 01:36:47,000
Why? Because racism is taught.
2069
01:36:47,002 --> 01:36:50,370
- ¶ Just do it.
Do it, do it, do it ¶
2070
01:36:50,372 --> 01:36:53,139
¶ Head up, you can do it,
so what if you blew it? ¶
2071
01:36:53,141 --> 01:36:55,441
- Every kid that gets killed is
the next great superstar
2072
01:36:55,443 --> 01:36:57,477
or the ne--the greatest guy
ever as soon as they die.
2073
01:36:57,478 --> 01:36:59,512
Nobody cares about these kids
until they're dead.
2074
01:36:59,514 --> 01:37:03,082
- ¶ You can do it,
do it ¶
2075
01:37:03,451 --> 01:37:07,353
¶ When you're stuck
in yesterday ¶
2076
01:37:07,355 --> 01:37:09,823
- We have to be willing
to get up to the plate,
2077
01:37:09,825 --> 01:37:12,892
stand up to the lecterns,
get to the microphones
2078
01:37:12,894 --> 01:37:16,462
and speak about the issue.
We're afraid to talk.
2079
01:37:16,464 --> 01:37:18,431
- ¶ Then I'm
lift you up ¶
2080
01:37:18,433 --> 01:37:21,167
¶ When you feel like
it looks run out ¶
2081
01:37:21,169 --> 01:37:23,503
¶ Let them fill
your cup ¶
2082
01:37:23,505 --> 01:37:25,305
¶ So the change
gonna come ¶
2083
01:37:25,307 --> 01:37:27,974
- And I really want to
challenge you guys as
2084
01:37:27,976 --> 01:37:31,411
brown and black people
to really think about the words
2085
01:37:31,413 --> 01:37:32,946
and the messages
you put out there.
2086
01:37:32,948 --> 01:37:35,548
- ¶ Just do it.
Do it, do it, do it ¶
2087
01:37:35,550 --> 01:37:37,283
¶ Head up,
you can do it ¶
2088
01:37:37,285 --> 01:37:39,986
¶ So what if you blew it? ¶
2089
01:37:39,988 --> 01:37:43,156
- What is the deal
with America and race?
2090
01:37:43,859 --> 01:37:47,393
- ¶ You can do it, do it ¶
2091
01:37:47,395 --> 01:37:51,297
- Even when you feel--
oh, my gosh, I'm so sorry.
2092
01:37:51,299 --> 01:37:53,233
I'm drooling.
2093
01:37:53,235 --> 01:37:55,001
- Action.
2094
01:37:59,140 --> 01:38:01,007
Not quite that slow.
2095
01:38:01,008 --> 01:38:02,875
- This is a serious
movie, okay?
2096
01:38:02,878 --> 01:38:04,277
- Cut.
2097
01:38:04,279 --> 01:38:05,979
- You are crazy.
2098
01:38:08,350 --> 01:38:10,283
- For us to change
America,
2099
01:38:10,285 --> 01:38:13,653
we have to get
uncomfortable.
2100
01:38:13,655 --> 01:38:15,889
It doesn't mean
we have to be unkind.
2101
01:38:15,891 --> 01:38:18,024
It doesn't mean we have
to put each other down,
2102
01:38:18,026 --> 01:38:20,994
but what it does mean is that
in order for the root
2103
01:38:20,996 --> 01:38:25,331
of this country to be healed,
we got to get uncomfortable
2104
01:38:25,333 --> 01:38:28,067
so that we can
address the pain.
2105
01:38:31,473 --> 01:38:33,490
- Philippians tells us that
we can be all...
2106
01:38:33,491 --> 01:38:35,508
- What's privilege mean to you,
Al Roker, Jr?
2107
01:38:35,510 --> 01:38:38,912
- Privilege is getting
something that you didn't earn.
2108
01:38:38,914 --> 01:38:41,147
- So you have an advantage
being a hot woman.
2109
01:38:41,149 --> 01:38:42,916
Like, you get out of tickets.
2110
01:38:42,918 --> 01:38:44,450
I don't recall you doing--
2111
01:38:44,452 --> 01:38:47,153
Go and answer that,
bro. Let me--
2112
01:38:47,155 --> 01:38:50,189
- Yeah, yeah. What's up?
What's up? It's Ron's Place.
2113
01:38:50,191 --> 01:38:51,691
- We would lie.
- Cut.
2114
01:38:51,693 --> 01:38:53,059
- We wouldn't lie.
2115
01:38:53,061 --> 01:38:55,495
- I'ma follow you.
- Oh.
2116
01:38:56,932 --> 01:38:58,364
- Of course.
2117
01:38:58,366 --> 01:39:01,000
- Did you ever see
"My Cousin Vinny," the movie?
2118
01:39:01,002 --> 01:39:02,936
Wasn't Daniel-san
from "The Karate Kid"
2119
01:39:02,938 --> 01:39:04,470
movie guilty in
the beginning?
2120
01:39:04,472 --> 01:39:06,072
And then at the end
you realize
2121
01:39:06,073 --> 01:39:07,673
there was no chance
he committed the murders.
2122
01:39:07,676 --> 01:39:10,043
- How do you bring in--
how do you bring
2123
01:39:10,045 --> 01:39:11,611
Ralph Macchio movies
2124
01:39:11,612 --> 01:39:13,178
and relate it to this Brian
Sudermill being killed? I--
2125
01:39:13,181 --> 01:39:14,414
- Everyone thought
he was guilty.
2126
01:39:14,416 --> 01:39:15,715
- It's a stretch. So--
2127
01:39:15,717 --> 01:39:17,216
- And at the end
everyone realized
2128
01:39:17,218 --> 01:39:18,401
there's no chance
he's guilty.
2129
01:39:18,402 --> 01:39:19,585
- So the Cousin Vinny
defense
2130
01:39:19,587 --> 01:39:20,954
is what we're gonna
use for this?
2131
01:39:20,956 --> 01:39:22,522
- Yes!
2132
01:39:22,524 --> 01:39:25,058
- ¶ In the name of Jesus ¶
2133
01:39:25,060 --> 01:39:29,095
¶ To break every chain,
break every chain ¶
2134
01:39:29,097 --> 01:39:31,030
¶ ¶
2135
01:39:31,032 --> 01:39:36,369
- ¶ There is power in
the name of Jesus ¶
2136
01:39:36,371 --> 01:39:42,175
Say it again. ¶ There is
power in the name of Jesus. ¶
2137
01:39:43,578 --> 01:39:48,147
¶ There is power
in the name of Jesus ¶
2138
01:39:48,149 --> 01:39:51,551
To do what? ¶ To break every
chain, break every chain ¶
2139
01:39:51,553 --> 01:39:53,987
We don't sell news,
2140
01:39:53,989 --> 01:39:56,155
"The Mexicans are coming
for our jobs.
2141
01:39:56,157 --> 01:39:57,490
"Put up those walls.
2142
01:39:57,492 --> 01:39:59,258
Oh, the blacks are
coming for our lives."
2143
01:39:59,260 --> 01:40:01,311
Hell, they're coming
for our daughters.
2144
01:40:01,312 --> 01:40:03,363
Head for the border!
Orale, I love America!
2145
01:40:03,365 --> 01:40:05,631
I love Mexicans,
hoo-ah!"
2146
01:40:05,633 --> 01:40:07,600
Let me do that again.
Can we do that again?
2147
01:40:07,602 --> 01:40:13,139
- ¶ There is power in the name
of Jesus to break every ¶
2148
01:40:13,141 --> 01:40:18,077
¶ To break every chain,
uh-huh, break every chain ¶
2149
01:40:18,079 --> 01:40:24,317
But we not done. Turn it up.
¶ There's an army rising up ¶
2150
01:40:24,319 --> 01:40:29,622
¶ There's an army,
there's an army rising up ¶
2151
01:40:29,624 --> 01:40:33,026
¶ We taking our stand.
There's an army ¶
2152
01:40:33,028 --> 01:40:37,130
¶ There's an army rising up
to break every chain ¶
2153
01:40:37,132 --> 01:40:42,635
¶ To break every chain,
break every chain. Oh ¶
2154
01:40:42,637 --> 01:40:45,138
- Whether it's your
revelation,
2155
01:40:45,139 --> 01:40:47,640
you can't lead people
to see the love of God.
2156
01:40:47,642 --> 01:40:51,177
I myself have been guilty
of being hateful
2157
01:40:51,179 --> 01:40:54,814
and prideful in my
revelation of God's word.
2158
01:40:54,816 --> 01:40:57,683
- ¶ There's an army
rising up ¶
2159
01:40:57,685 --> 01:40:59,752
- Five people
come to church,
2160
01:40:59,754 --> 01:41:01,721
and then three of those
people come extra
2161
01:41:01,723 --> 01:41:03,239
because they
feel guilty.
2162
01:41:03,240 --> 01:41:04,756
Would you rather them
just not come at all?
2163
01:41:04,759 --> 01:41:06,325
- I'd rather them
not come at all.
2164
01:41:06,327 --> 01:41:07,643
I want them to--
I want them to--
2165
01:41:07,644 --> 01:41:08,960
- No, I want them
to come
2166
01:41:08,961 --> 01:41:10,277
because I want them
to hear that word.
2167
01:41:10,278 --> 01:41:11,594
Even if they hear a
little bit or all of it,
2168
01:41:11,599 --> 01:41:15,468
but at least they're in there
for whatever reason.
2169
01:41:15,470 --> 01:41:18,071
- ¶ Just to break
every chain ¶
2170
01:41:18,073 --> 01:41:20,206
- In everybody's life
we're gonna be confronted
2171
01:41:20,208 --> 01:41:23,342
with the reality of how is
your faith gonna play out
2172
01:41:23,344 --> 01:41:26,028
in real-life
situations?
2173
01:41:26,029 --> 01:41:28,713
- ¶ There is power in
the name of Jesus ¶
2174
01:41:28,716 --> 01:41:30,817
- Your responsibility
as influencers,
2175
01:41:30,819 --> 01:41:34,520
you guys all took
responsibility for it,
2176
01:41:34,522 --> 01:41:36,389
and not one person
said,
2177
01:41:36,391 --> 01:41:39,459
"Hey, this is their mama's
and daddy's responsibility
2178
01:41:39,461 --> 01:41:41,878
to pour something
into them."
2179
01:41:41,879 --> 01:41:44,296
Do you see yourself as
the answer or just a part of?
2180
01:41:44,299 --> 01:41:46,599
- Nowadays a fan
could hit us up,
2181
01:41:46,601 --> 01:41:48,968
and we could talk
directly to them,
2182
01:41:48,969 --> 01:41:51,336
and they look at us just as big
as the news out of Washington
2183
01:41:51,339 --> 01:41:54,490
or whatever, you know?
2184
01:41:54,491 --> 01:41:57,642
- ¶ Falling, falling, falling
in Jesus' name, falling ¶
2185
01:41:57,645 --> 01:42:00,246
¶ I hear the chains falling ¶
2186
01:42:00,248 --> 01:42:02,148
- I have to be responsible
for these people
2187
01:42:02,150 --> 01:42:04,183
because I've had thousands
and thousands of people
2188
01:42:04,185 --> 01:42:05,818
tell me how their lives
have been changed
2189
01:42:05,820 --> 01:42:08,387
because of the things
I've done for them.
2190
01:42:08,389 --> 01:42:12,325
- ¶ I hear the chains falling,
I hear the chains falling ¶
2191
01:42:12,327 --> 01:42:13,793
- There was a lot of stuff
that the prosecution
2192
01:42:13,795 --> 01:42:15,261
didn't take a look at.
2193
01:42:15,263 --> 01:42:16,796
- That's right.
2194
01:42:16,797 --> 01:42:18,330
- Yeah, so--but I mean,
but my thing is this though.
2195
01:42:18,331 --> 01:42:19,864
If--now, Kholi was
returning his wallet.
2196
01:42:19,868 --> 01:42:21,534
- Hold it, stop. You know what?
2197
01:42:21,536 --> 01:42:23,169
You better get me
with his--you--
2198
01:42:23,171 --> 01:42:25,271
how you gonna agree
with him and me,
2199
01:42:25,273 --> 01:42:28,374
and we just?
What is wrong with you, man?
2200
01:42:28,376 --> 01:42:30,209
All right, we'll pick--
we'll pick it up again.
2201
01:42:30,211 --> 01:42:31,811
- ¶ They falling, they falling,
they falling ¶
2202
01:42:31,813 --> 01:42:33,880
¶ They falling, they falling,
they falling ¶
2203
01:42:33,882 --> 01:42:36,916
¶ They falling, they falling,
they falling ¶
2204
01:42:36,918 --> 01:42:41,154
¶ They falling. They falling,
they falling, they falling ¶
2205
01:42:42,257 --> 01:42:44,457
¶ They falling, they falling,
they falling ¶
2206
01:42:44,458 --> 01:42:46,658
¶ They falling, they falling,
they falling ¶
2207
01:42:46,661 --> 01:42:49,529
Give us the power....
2208
01:42:49,531 --> 01:42:52,198
in the name of Jesus.
2209
01:42:53,835 --> 01:42:56,302
¶ So much power in the name--
2210
01:43:01,776 --> 01:43:04,710
- Hector's playing music
on this now.
