JOSH: I'm sure by now you're all aware that someone

WALKER: Is there anything in your personnel file

The personnel file of Officer Griffin is not in evidence,

CALLIE: Can't leak those files to Jamal's attorney.
Do not do something impulsive.
I haven't felt this way about anybody in a long time.

Correct. This is evidentiary.

So, you think Wilson suspects you

and giving them to Malika?
I don't know.
The young woman who sits with Jamal's mother in court,
is she the person you disclosed,
who lives in your building?
Yes, why?
Just curious.
CALLIE: That's all he asked.
Uh, I'm not sure I want to know the answer to this.
Did you take the files?
No.
No, I didn't take them from Wilson's office,
but I did receive them, anonymously.
Someone had them messengered to me at The Coterie.
I have no idea who. But in them, Griffin confirmed
that he was present when the former police chief, Robert Kelley,
said it's better for the department
to let victims of police shootings die.
You should have told Wilson.
You should have given them to him, immediately.
- No one knows I have them. - The person who sent them to you does.
They can't prove that I got them, or that I read them.
Callie! Don't be so naive!
If Wilson finds out you had those files
before the plaintiff's attorney presented them in court
you're going to be the prime suspect.
You could face criminal charges.
Not to mention, the bar could refuse
to ever give you a license to practice law.
The jury needs to hear what's in those files. It's not fair.
Throwing your career under the bus
isn't going to change anything.
Reckless behavior, as,
as righteous as you think it may be,
has real consequences.
This could follow you for your entire life.

Where have you been?
Doctor's appointment.
So, Wilson had me write a bench memo
arguing against allowing the personnel records in as evidence.
I knocked it out of the park, if I do say so myself.
- He let you read them? - No.
Don't you think that's unusual?
To ask you to defend a position on a document you haven't read?
I really don't care.
Do you care about anything, Ben?
Except for career advancement?
You know, my father took a job as a janitor
in one of the best college prep-schools in the country,
so he could get a discount on the tuition for me to go there.
My mother worked seven days a week waiting tables.
If I get to be a Supreme Court clerk,
I'll get a 300K signing bonus at any law firm of my choosing.
I'm going to use that money to buy my parents a house. So...
career advancement, sure.
But what motivates me most, is taking care of the two people
who made all this possible for me.
You know, Callie,
you could have gone straight to work at a non-profit,
but don't kid yourself.
You applied for this clerkship for the same reason we all did.
It's an elite path to success, and you know it.
Good night.
Yes?
I'd like to offer precedent
that would allow you to let the personnel files in.
I think that these records are extremely relevant
to the plaintiff's Monell claim
that the city had an informal policy
to let suspects die instead of giving them critical care.
How do you know what's inside the files?
The Supreme Court held in Connick v. Thompson
that plaintiffs could prove deliberate indifference...
You didn't answer my question.
Did you... take the files from this office?
No, sir.
They were sent to me anonymously.
Why would someone send you the files?
I don't know why.
But I didn't show them to anyone.
- I give you my word on that. - The Monell claim doesn't apply.
There's no evidence that this was an actual police policy.
- It's a comment made by one man. - The police chief.
This is smoking-gun evidence of notice
by the policymaker himself.
You're stretching the precedent
to provide the outcome you want, not the law supporting it.
With all due respect, Your Honor,
you may think you're not an activist judge,
but you have consistently protected the police as an institution
regardless of the actions of individual officers.
There is no such thing as an impartial judge
on the left or the right.
You choose conservative precedents,
not because you have to, because you want to.
Is that all?
Yes, sir.
We'll discuss what to do about your failure to disclose
that you were in possession of sealed documents tomorrow.

JUDGE WILSON: Ms. Walker,
I'm admonishing you for attempting to blindside the defense
with your line of questioning before we recessed.
I find no legal precedent
that compels the court to allow this new evidence in.
However, I find no precedent that clearly precludes it.
Therefore, you may enter
Officer Griffin's personnel files into the record.
Were you present when Chief Robert Kelly told a group of officers
that it's better for the department
to let victims of police shootings die?
Yes.
Did you take his comments as an order?
- No, I did not. - Where do you get your authority from,
- as a police officer? - From our superiors.
- Like the chief of police? - I guess.
Did you think Chief Kelly was giving you the authority
- to let Jamal Thompson die? - GRIFFIN: No, sir.
So, if he doesn't care about victims of police brutality,
- why should you? - Objection.
- Testifying. - Sustained.
Did you think you would face any consequences
if you failed to provide prompt critical care?
We needed to secure the scene
before we sent E.M.T.'s in
to make sure Mr. Thompson wasn't a threat.
You shot him seven times.
He collapsed in a pool of his own blood.

Am I the first uncircumcised guy you've been with?
Okay. Look, I felt bad about the way I looked at it,
and, I don't know,
I... It-it's just because I had never seen one before.
Not because I don't like it, which I do very much.
But I don't know, I asked my friends what to do.
You told your friends?
Well, Alice left the conversation early.
I guess what my friends told me to do was wrong

Yeah. Yeah. But, hey...
if you do, you should have some actual jokes.
Right.
See ya.
If both sides are ready, we'll hear closing arguments.
The Supreme Court has ruled
that what matters is whether or not the officers in question
had reasonable fear of a threat to their lives,
based on their assessment alone.
Can you think of any reason
that Jamal would suddenly stop running, turn around,
and lunge at two police officers with guns drawn,
armed only with a cell phone?
Based on their experience on the streets,
it's not unreasonable to believe
Jamal might have been armed.
WALKER: Because he was black.
Because they embrace racist stereotypes,
they assumed he was armed
and gunned him down.
- When faced with a potential threat... - Jamal was no threat.
These officers owed it to their wives and children...
And after they shot him in the back...
To make sure they came home from work that night.
They let him bleed to death,
because his life did not matter to them.
Officers Griffin and Turani got to go home
to their wives and children that night.
Jamal will never go home to his mother, Sandra, and his family.
He'll never be married, never have a child of his own.
Sandra Thompson is no longer a mother.
