00:00:02,544 --> 00:00:04,671
- And the name is Tucker.
- How bad was it?

00:00:04,754 --> 00:00:06,089
[Jax Stewart]
Did you know about these?
4
00:00:06,172 --> 00:00:07,173
I took 'em.
5
00:00:07,257 --> 00:00:08,925
[crying]
He just kept hurting her, Chris,
6
00:00:09,009 --> 00:00:11,636
and he wasn't gonna stop.
Fuck you, JT.
7
00:00:11,720 --> 00:00:14,180
Did you get a chance to talk
to any of JT's ex-girlfriends?
8
00:00:14,264 --> 00:00:15,640
Quite a few of them
don't want the attention,
9
00:00:15,724 --> 00:00:17,225
given the way Shanelle's being dragged.
10
00:00:17,308 --> 00:00:21,104
The last thing this department needs
is another embarrassing loss.

Are you two looking
to reconcile or uncouple?
15
00:00:29,195 --> 00:00:30,363
- Reconcile.
- Reconcile.
16
00:00:31,823 --> 00:00:32,907
I should stop.
17
00:00:32,991 --> 00:00:34,826
[Lewis Stewart]
I know how much you love Jax.
18
00:00:34,909 --> 00:00:37,162
Fuck that, you're my big brother.
19
00:00:37,245 --> 00:00:38,997
She ain't shit to me
without you, understood?
20
00:00:39,080 --> 00:00:41,082
- [Jax] Just leave.
- Where else am I gonna go, Jax?
21
00:00:41,166 --> 00:00:42,876
You think I give a fuck?
22
00:00:42,959 --> 00:00:44,669
That's not what
unconditional love is about.
23
00:00:44,753 --> 00:00:47,047
Sounds like something
that you didn't receive as a child.
24
00:00:47,130 --> 00:00:50,008

sexual advances towards me.

So, today, we're gonna hear
testimony from Dr. Michaels

00:06:22,507 --> 00:06:23,716
who's brilliant and charming,
143
00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:27,053
and she's gonna show how JT
would've tried to kill Shanelle.
144
00:06:27,136 --> 00:06:29,097
Then we have Porter,
the handwriting expert.
145
00:06:29,180 --> 00:06:32,433
She's gonna prove that Shanelle
didn't sign those money transfers.
146
00:06:32,517 --> 00:06:34,352
Then we have Agent Ali who's gonna show
147
00:06:34,435 --> 00:06:36,979
that Shanelle did not steal
JT's $30 million.
148
00:06:37,063 --> 00:06:39,482
Yeah, that's good,
but the state relied on the balance
149
00:06:39,565 --> 00:06:42,693
of experts and eyewitnesses who tried
to prove that Shanelle planned the murder.
150
00:06:42,777 --> 00:06:45,863
We need witnesses other than Shanelle
to connect to the jurors.
151
00:06:45,947 --> 00:06:48,574
We need to show
that she was trying to leave him,
152
00:06:48,658 --> 00:06:51,828
and that his abuse
escalated to a, a, a fight to the death.
153
00:06:51,911 --> 00:06:53,287
And that's why we have Sally.
154
00:06:53,371 --> 00:06:56,165
Sally's gonna show the steps
that Shanelle took to leave.
155
00:06:56,249 --> 00:06:58,960
Daniel, did you get an opportunity
to land one of JT's exes?
156

Uh, no. Uh, I talked to five of them,
157
00:07:01,337 --> 00:07:05,007

from the restraining orders office?
162
00:07:13,724 --> 00:07:16,978
You know, unlike Eboni, the ex, and Sally,
she'll show as unbiased,
163
00:07:17,061 --> 00:07:18,980

was trying to leave him.

Okay, no, she's out.
171
00:07:32,702 --> 00:07:34,328
- She's out. Jurors don't like fame whores.
- Yeah.
172
00:07:34,412 --> 00:07:36,080
Okay, that's true, that's true.
173
00:07:36,164 --> 00:07:38,166
But we should still watch the interview
to see how bad it is,
174
00:07:38,249 --> 00:07:40,001
then decide if we wanna
put her on the stand.
175
00:07:40,084 --> 00:07:41,586
She might still be a strong witness.
176
00:07:41,669 --> 00:07:44,422
Okay, but at the end of the day,
our most important witness is Shanelle,
177
00:07:44,505 --> 00:07:46,632
and as long as she's strong, we're solid.
178
00:07:47,925 --> 00:07:51,179
Hey, hey, hey.
Good luck in court today, Tucker.
179
00:07:52,346 --> 00:07:53,848
- Thank you, Baker.
- [Baker] Hmm.
180
00:07:53,931 --> 00:07:55,766
I'll tell you all about it when I'm back.
181
00:07:55,850 --> 00:07:56,976
You good?
182
00:07:57,059 --> 00:08:01,022
Any morning you can pull the sheet
from your own face, it's a good one.
183
00:08:01,105 --> 00:08:03,774
I know that's right. Later, Baker.
184
00:08:05,526 --> 00:08:06,694
[Corey Cash] The Defense calls...
185
00:08:06,777 --> 00:08:08,112
Dr. Brandy Michaels,
186
00:08:08,196 --> 00:08:10,031
director for
the Institute for the Prevention
187
00:08:10,114 --> 00:08:11,741
of Intimate Partner Violence.
188
00:08:11,824 --> 00:08:13,284
Dr. Michaels, can you explain
189
00:08:13,367 --> 00:08:16,913
how a victim can end up
in an abusive relationship?
190
00:08:16,996 --> 00:08:20,124
I will use "he" for abuser
and "she" for victim,
191
00:08:20,208 --> 00:08:22,460
but abuse affects
relationships of all kinds.
192
00:08:22,543 --> 00:08:25,421
An abuser and a victim
will begin a romance.
193
00:08:25,505 --> 00:08:28,591
He will act like the perfect partner,
make grand gestures,
194
00:08:28,674 --> 00:08:31,135
or share his trauma
to make her feel for him.
195
00:08:31,219 --> 00:08:34,222
In time, he'll begin
to exert his control over her,
196
00:08:34,305 --> 00:08:36,140
trapping her in a pattern of abuse.
197
00:08:36,224 --> 00:08:38,100
And how is a victim trapped?
198
00:08:38,184 --> 00:08:40,019
He'll act out to build tension,
199
00:08:40,102 --> 00:08:41,687
make her think there's something wrong,
200
00:08:41,771 --> 00:08:43,272
that it's all her fault.
201
00:08:43,356 --> 00:08:45,525
And because he's been the perfect partner
202
00:08:45,608 --> 00:08:48,110
and she knows the trauma
that he's been through in the past,
203
00:08:48,194 --> 00:08:49,278
she'll believe him.
204
00:08:49,362 --> 00:08:51,739
The tension grows
until there's an incident of abuse.
205
00:08:52,740 --> 00:08:56,577
He may try to make it up to her,
or swear it'll never happen again,
206
00:08:56,661 --> 00:08:58,621
but there will always be more abuse.
207
00:08:58,704 --> 00:08:59,956
What kind of abuse?
208
00:09:00,039 --> 00:09:02,708
Emotional, verbal, isolation,
209
00:09:02,792 --> 00:09:06,295
reproductive coercion, financial control.
210
00:09:06,379 --> 00:09:08,923
Physical abuse
is often the last step he'll take.
211
00:09:09,006 --> 00:09:10,174
And why is that?
212
00:09:10,258 --> 00:09:13,219
Well, if he's violent
on the first date, she'll leave.
213
00:09:13,302 --> 00:09:16,472
But she's less likely to do that
with her husband of 10 years
214
00:09:16,556 --> 00:09:18,057
or if he controls all the money.
215
00:09:18,140 --> 00:09:20,184
[Corey] Now, are there times when
216
00:09:20,268 --> 00:09:22,687
a victim is more at risk
of harm than others?
217
00:09:22,770 --> 00:09:24,564
Yes, when she tries to leave him.
218
00:09:24,647 --> 00:09:29,986
And are there times when a abuser
is more likely to kill his victims?
219
00:09:30,069 --> 00:09:33,072
Yes, if he strangles her,
220
00:09:33,155 --> 00:09:35,950
he is over 700 times
more likely to kill her.
221
00:09:36,033 --> 00:09:40,413
And the tricky part is is that even if
she's been through other types of abuse,
222
00:09:40,496 --> 00:09:42,790
she will most likely only get help
from the legal system
223
00:09:42,873 --> 00:09:44,375
if he gets physical.
224
00:09:44,458 --> 00:09:47,753
Why would a victim not be able
to get help from the authorities?
225
00:09:47,837 --> 00:09:51,090
She may be afraid or ashamed
226
00:09:51,173 --> 00:09:53,551
or she may have concerns
about the legal system.
227
00:09:53,634 --> 00:09:54,802
[Corey] What type of concerns?
228
00:09:54,885 --> 00:09:58,097
Well, if she's Black, sexism and racism.
229
00:09:58,180 --> 00:10:00,891
Forty-five percent of us
experience violence or stalking,
230
00:10:00,975 --> 00:10:04,020
but we are less likely
to be seen as victims.
231
00:10:04,103 --> 00:10:08,107
And she may fear involving the police
because of police violence.
232
00:10:08,190 --> 00:10:11,193
But as a Black woman,
if she kills her abuser,
233
00:10:11,277 --> 00:10:13,904
she is 80% more likely to be convicted.
234
00:10:15,281 --> 00:10:17,033
[Corey] Thank you.
235
00:10:18,451 --> 00:10:22,121
How often are Black men the victims
of intimate partner violence?
236
00:10:22,204 --> 00:10:26,208
Forty percent experience
intimate partner violence or stalking.
237
00:10:26,292 --> 00:10:28,085
Let's say you have a wife
238
00:10:28,169 --> 00:10:30,880
who slaps her husband in public
and later kills him.
239
00:10:30,963 --> 00:10:32,340
Would you also say that he was a victim?
240
00:10:32,423 --> 00:10:34,967
- Objection, argumentative.
- Sustained.
241
00:10:35,051 --> 00:10:38,804
Do most financial abuse victims
have accounts with $30 million?
242
00:10:38,888 --> 00:10:41,724
No, financial abuse
is used to control the victim
243
00:10:41,807 --> 00:10:43,100
so she can't leave.
244
00:10:43,184 --> 00:10:46,771
[Lucy Wargo] So, in your opinion,
a wife with that kind of wealth
245
00:10:46,854 --> 00:10:49,732
has the option
to leave her husband rather than kill him?
246
00:10:49,815 --> 00:10:51,734
- Objection.
- Withdrawn.
247
00:10:53,194 --> 00:10:54,820
[Corey] Dr. Michaels, can you explain
248
00:10:54,904 --> 00:10:59,367
what financial abuse looks like
in a wealthy home?
249
00:10:59,450 --> 00:11:02,119
She may drive a fancy car that's not hers,
250
00:11:02,203 --> 00:11:03,996
nor is the house that she lives in.
251
00:11:04,080 --> 00:11:07,416
And if she leaves,
she'll have no assets or credit.
252
00:11:07,500 --> 00:11:09,335
And if he sees her leaving,
253
00:11:09,418 --> 00:11:12,838
he may do anything to stop her,
even try to kill her.
254
00:11:16,175 --> 00:11:17,843
Thank you.
255
00:11:19,220 --> 00:11:20,429
[exhales]
256
00:11:22,848 --> 00:11:23,933

00:11:24,016 --> 00:11:25,518
- Bye, Spenser.
- [Spenser] Bye.
258
00:11:26,977 --> 00:11:28,979
[Jax] Ohh, who's that?
259
00:11:29,063 --> 00:11:30,439
It's Aisha.
260
00:11:30,523 --> 00:11:33,025

Wow. You know what?

269
00:11:48,624 --> 00:11:50,042
- [Lucy] No, no, no, maybe another time.
- [John Wargo] But, Mom?
270
00:11:50,126 --> 00:11:51,919
No, come on,
let's get in the car right now.
271
00:11:52,002 --> 00:11:54,797
[Peter]
Oh, sorry, John. I'll see you soon.
272
00:11:58,092 --> 00:11:59,677
[engine starts]
273
00:12:00,678 --> 00:12:04,890
And so, yes, I decided
to give Lewis a chance,
274
00:12:04,974 --> 00:12:07,017
in the same way he gave me.
275
00:12:07,101 --> 00:12:11,021
And I just wanna be with her
and to make her life easier.
276
00:12:11,105 --> 00:12:13,190
Yeah, I probably shouldn't be saying this,
277
00:12:13,274 --> 00:12:16,527
but, uh, I'm really happy
you guys decided not to uncouple.
278
00:12:16,610 --> 00:12:19,572
- Look at you!
- Check Dr., check Dr. Webb out.
279
00:12:19,655 --> 00:12:21,240
I see you, Dr. Webb. Okay.
280
00:12:21,323 --> 00:12:23,367
Okay, alright, alright.
281
00:12:23,451 --> 00:12:25,411
So, what's next?
282
00:12:26,412 --> 00:12:27,997
Uh...
283
00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:31,584
I mean, we, obviously, still have things
that we need to figure out, right?
284
00:12:31,667 --> 00:12:33,836
I mean, we both have a lot going though.
285
00:12:33,919 --> 00:12:35,421
I ha-- I have the trial. He--
286
00:12:35,504 --> 00:12:38,174
And I, and I have my launch, and, uh,
my brother, Terrence, is coming to town,
287
00:12:38,257 --> 00:12:40,301
so that, that should be interesting.
288
00:12:40,384 --> 00:12:42,094
Why you say that?
289
00:12:44,054 --> 00:12:45,681
What did you tell him?
290
00:12:45,765 --> 00:12:47,683
Uh, everything.
291
00:12:49,268 --> 00:12:52,062
- Oh.
- I mean, I had to talk to someone.
292
00:12:52,146 --> 00:12:53,606
You definitely already told your friends.
293
00:12:53,689 --> 00:12:55,274
I mean, Sally damn near
called me a piece of shit.
294
00:12:55,357 --> 00:12:58,110
And what about the baby?
How are you going to tell the kids?
295
00:12:59,904 --> 00:13:01,113
Well, listen, like I said,
296
00:13:01,197 --> 00:13:03,365
I'm happy you guys
decided to stay together.
297
00:13:03,449 --> 00:13:08,204
But we work now on the "staying" part
of staying together.
298
00:13:08,287 --> 00:13:10,873
And the only way to get that done
299
00:13:10,956 --> 00:13:12,666
is by having some hard conversations,
300
00:13:12,750 --> 00:13:15,002
and getting through them
by working together,
301
00:13:15,085 --> 00:13:16,504
we're not going against each other,
302
00:13:16,587 --> 00:13:19,840
and that is what's gonna
make this union successful.
303
00:13:22,051 --> 00:13:23,344
Okay.
304
00:13:24,929 --> 00:13:29,433
But, yeah, but there's, there's
so many things that we have to figure out.
305
00:13:29,517 --> 00:13:30,768
Where do we start?
306
00:13:30,851 --> 00:13:32,228
I have an idea.
307
00:13:36,565 --> 00:13:38,192
- Hey.
- Hey.
308
00:13:38,275 --> 00:13:39,360
Can we come in?
309
00:13:43,739 --> 00:13:45,616
Jax.
310
00:13:45,699 --> 00:13:47,409
Toni.
311
00:13:47,493 --> 00:13:48,953
Sure.
312
00:13:52,790 --> 00:13:56,377
I, we, um, have decided
to be in the baby's life,
313
00:13:56,460 --> 00:13:59,296
and if I'm going to co-parent,
Jax is gonna be involved too.
314
00:13:59,380 --> 00:14:03,008
Which is why we're here,
to figure out how to make it work.
315
00:14:04,051 --> 00:14:08,514
Well, I guess he'll be a lucky boy.
316
00:14:09,515 --> 00:14:13,352
Boy? Wow. Look at that.
317
00:14:13,435 --> 00:14:16,146
Yeah, I've always wanted a boy.
318
00:14:16,230 --> 00:14:18,023
[Jax] Boys can be a lot.
319
00:14:18,107 --> 00:14:20,401
Now, Spenser, he ran me ragged,
320
00:14:20,484 --> 00:14:22,111
and I wasn't even a single mom.
321
00:14:22,194 --> 00:14:24,196
Well, neither am I.
322
00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:26,824
Yes, you have two baby daddies now.
323
00:14:29,034 --> 00:14:31,287
- Uh, Jax.
- I didn't mean it in a shady way.
324
00:14:31,370 --> 00:14:35,207
But you're right,
you'll have all the help you need.
325
00:14:36,208 --> 00:14:37,209
I sure will.
326
00:14:41,589 --> 00:14:43,257
[Spenser]
Today is teacher development day.
327
00:14:43,340 --> 00:14:45,676
That's not fair.
I wanna switch schools.
328
00:14:45,759 --> 00:14:47,636
Well, you can't play video games all day.
329
00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:49,930
Well, a few people
in the play are practicing
330
00:14:50,014 --> 00:14:51,599
for the showcase at a friend's house.
331
00:14:51,682 --> 00:14:53,434
You mean, your boo Aisha's house?
332
00:14:53,517 --> 00:14:55,853
She's not my-- We're friends, a'ight?
333
00:14:55,936 --> 00:14:57,938
Okay, wait, is that the girl
you were talking to yesterday?
334
00:14:58,022 --> 00:14:59,523
- She's cute.
- Yeah.
335
00:14:59,607 --> 00:15:01,025
He thinks so too.
336
00:15:01,108 --> 00:15:03,903
I heard him on the phone,
"Oh, Aisha, I love her so much."
337
00:15:03,986 --> 00:15:05,821
- Ooh.
- You wish somebody liked you.
338
00:15:05,905 --> 00:15:08,657
- What?
- Hey. Uh-uh. Stop it now, both of you.
339
00:15:10,326 --> 00:15:13,162
Can I go... please?
340
00:15:13,245 --> 00:15:15,956
Look, Aisha's parents gonna be there?
'Cause if not, that's a big no.
341
00:15:16,040 --> 00:15:19,168
Aisha said her dad
is working from home. So?
342
00:15:21,754 --> 00:15:24,840
Alright, I'll drop you off
at Aisha's house.
343
00:15:24,924 --> 00:15:26,884
Yes! I'm gonna go take a shower.
344
00:15:26,967 --> 00:15:30,220
[♪ upbeat, cheerful music playing]
345
00:15:30,304 --> 00:15:31,722
[Jax] Really, y'all need to stop.
346
00:15:34,558 --> 00:15:38,187
I obviously didn't use my name
or Peter's when I talked to Judge Wu.
347
00:15:39,313 --> 00:15:43,233
But when she said that, uh,
my witness only had a 50/50 chance
348
00:15:43,317 --> 00:15:45,861
of getting
a restraining order for her ex--
349
00:15:45,945 --> 00:15:47,738
Fifty-fifty is not so bad.
350
00:15:47,821 --> 00:15:50,407
Although, you would have
an easier time getting an order
351
00:15:50,491 --> 00:15:53,035
if his conviction
was for domestic violence,
352
00:15:53,118 --> 00:15:55,621
not a DUI and gun possession.
353
00:15:55,704 --> 00:15:57,831
Why don't you just tell John
the truth about his dad?
354
00:15:57,915 --> 00:15:58,958
No.
355
00:16:00,417 --> 00:16:03,337
I have shown him photos and videos
356
00:16:03,420 --> 00:16:05,714
and pretended like his dad was this, uh...
357
00:16:07,007 --> 00:16:09,093
misunderstood good guy
358
00:16:09,176 --> 00:16:11,720
who will run to him
as soon as he became free.
359
00:16:11,804 --> 00:16:16,058
And now, my monster
is John's superhero because of me.
360
00:16:16,141 --> 00:16:17,768
None of this is your fault.
361
00:16:17,851 --> 00:16:20,771
At the custody hearing,
you have two advantages.
362
00:16:20,854 --> 00:16:22,064
You've taken care of John,
363
00:16:22,147 --> 00:16:23,565
- alone, for years...
- Mm-hm.
364
00:16:23,649 --> 00:16:25,693
...and the court will look
favorably on you
365
00:16:25,776 --> 00:16:29,488
as long as you can show stability,
like your DA job.
366
00:16:29,571 --> 00:16:30,572
Okay.
367
00:16:31,615 --> 00:16:32,908
Let's hope I can keep it.
368
00:16:32,992 --> 00:16:34,326
I should go.
369
00:16:34,410 --> 00:16:37,538
But in the meantime,
try not to stress too much.
370
00:16:37,621 --> 00:16:38,789
Okay.
371
00:16:43,585 --> 00:16:45,879
Hey, Lucy. Another great day, huh?
372
00:16:45,963 --> 00:16:48,132
Hey, Davis, yeah...
373
00:16:49,508 --> 00:16:51,051
another great day.
374
00:16:51,135 --> 00:16:52,761
[Corey]
The Defense calls Francesca Porter.
375
00:16:52,845 --> 00:16:54,471
I'm a forensic document examiner
376
00:16:54,555 --> 00:16:56,557
and certified handwriting analyst.
377
00:16:56,640 --> 00:16:58,434
Agent Abdul Ali of the FBI.
378
00:16:58,517 --> 00:17:01,311
I just closed an investigation
into Jamarion Tucker's charity.
379
00:17:01,395 --> 00:17:03,897
Now, I'm showing you
the People's Exhibit 35.
380
00:17:03,981 --> 00:17:05,232
Do you know what that is?
381
00:17:05,315 --> 00:17:08,444
Yes, documents creating
a trust for Mrs. Tucker
382
00:17:08,527 --> 00:17:10,738
and transferring $30 million.
383
00:17:10,821 --> 00:17:13,282
Does her signature show
that she had the legal power
384
00:17:13,365 --> 00:17:15,075
to use and transfer the money
385
00:17:15,159 --> 00:17:17,077
- however she liked?
- Yes.
386
00:17:17,161 --> 00:17:19,496
[Lucy] Including the $30 million transfer
that happened
387
00:17:19,580 --> 00:17:21,290
- prior to the victim's death?
- Yes.
388
00:17:21,373 --> 00:17:25,210
Now, in your opinion, is the signature
on People's Exhibit 35 authentic?
389
00:17:25,294 --> 00:17:28,839
No, I reviewed dozens
of documents signed by the defendant.
390
00:17:28,922 --> 00:17:31,675
Her signature on the right
is consistent across time periods,
391
00:17:31,759 --> 00:17:33,677
but here, on the left,
392
00:17:33,761 --> 00:17:35,929
the signatures lack
the fundamental characteristics
393
00:17:36,013 --> 00:17:37,514
that define her other writing.
394
00:17:37,598 --> 00:17:40,559
Can a person's authentic signature
sometimes change?
395
00:17:40,642 --> 00:17:43,062
For example,
if the defendant's wrist was injured?
396
00:17:43,145 --> 00:17:45,481
- Objection, lack of foundation.
- Sustained.
397
00:17:47,149 --> 00:17:49,401
Please look to Defense Exhibit 12.
398
00:17:49,485 --> 00:17:50,527
Do you recognize that document?
399
00:17:50,611 --> 00:17:53,989
Yes, it's a check written
from Mr. Tucker's charitable foundation,
400
00:17:54,073 --> 00:17:56,617
and drawn from an account
shared by him and Evan Gerrard.
401
00:17:56,700 --> 00:17:57,951
And this check was payment
402
00:17:58,035 --> 00:18:00,370
for reducing his yardage
in the game the prior day.
403
00:18:00,454 --> 00:18:01,789
It's a front to fix football games.
404
00:18:01,872 --> 00:18:04,458
Do you think the signature
on this check belongs to the defendant?
405
00:18:04,541 --> 00:18:06,251
No, I do not believe so.
406
00:18:06,335 --> 00:18:08,462
We have reams of documents
proving Mr. Tucker
407
00:18:08,545 --> 00:18:10,798
and others fixed games,
laundered gambling money
408
00:18:10,881 --> 00:18:12,382
through the charity and used it,
409
00:18:12,466 --> 00:18:14,384
but Mrs. Tucker
never drew from the charity
410
00:18:14,468 --> 00:18:15,552
or its secret accounts.
411
00:18:15,636 --> 00:18:16,804
[Corey] Have you ever had a case
412
00:18:16,887 --> 00:18:19,556
where a husband had his wife
sign some documents
413
00:18:19,640 --> 00:18:21,517
to move some money
that she would never use?
414
00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:23,102
I've had dozens of cases like that.
415
00:18:23,185 --> 00:18:24,812
Why might a husband
do something like that?
416
00:18:24,895 --> 00:18:26,230
Skip out on taxes
417
00:18:26,313 --> 00:18:28,190
or to set her up, since if she signs,
418
00:18:28,273 --> 00:18:31,610
he avoids doing time while the wife
spends the rest of her life in prison.
419
00:18:31,693 --> 00:18:34,279
What a terrible thing to do. Thank you.
420
00:18:34,363 --> 00:18:35,864
[inaudible dialogue]
421
00:18:42,204 --> 00:18:43,997
[cell phone ringing]
422
00:18:44,998 --> 00:18:47,668
- Hey, Ma, it's not a good time.
- [Mama Lu] [on phone] Then, I'll be quick.
423
00:18:47,751 --> 00:18:50,003
Kevin and I would like
for you and Lewis and the kids
424
00:18:50,087 --> 00:18:52,089
to come over for lunch on Saturday.
425
00:18:52,172 --> 00:18:54,007
Tomorrow? I have the trial, I can't--
426
00:18:54,091 --> 00:18:55,300
It's getting serious.
427
00:18:55,384 --> 00:18:58,470
Between me and Kevin, I mean.
I really want you to meet him.
428
00:18:58,554 --> 00:19:00,722
Okay, and since when
do you care what I think?
429
00:19:00,806 --> 00:19:03,892
Since now. I care, Jacqueline.
430
00:19:06,311 --> 00:19:07,855
Okay.
431
00:19:07,938 --> 00:19:09,815
Okay, we'll be there.
432
00:19:09,898 --> 00:19:11,066
Thank you.

Oh, shit. Hey, that was fire.

Thanks, man. You know,
I still gotta work on it though.

Oh, my God, really?

'Cause you can go
on stage, like, tomorrow.

- Oh yeah?
- [Aisha's dad] Hey, Aisha,
442
00:19:41,972 --> 00:19:43,932
I gotta step out for a bit,
work emergency,
443
00:19:44,016 --> 00:19:45,267
but you guys be good, okay?
444

[Aisha Anderson]
Uh, yeah, we're good, Dad.

S-So, no one's home?
449
00:20:01,825 --> 00:20:02,993
Nope.
450
00:20:04,036 --> 00:20:05,913
You want anything?
451
00:20:07,331 --> 00:20:11,293
N-- I d-- I don't do that type of stuff,
but I vape though.
452
00:20:11,376 --> 00:20:13,128
I left mine at home.
453
00:20:13,212 --> 00:20:15,255
I mean, I don't do
this kind of stuff either,
454
00:20:15,339 --> 00:20:19,801
but I'm glad you don't,
makes me like you more.
455
00:20:21,136 --> 00:20:23,096
- Okay.
- [Aisha] I'll go get my vape.
456
00:20:33,774 --> 00:20:35,359
[softly] Shit. Okay.
457

Hey, Jax.
460
00:20:46,453 --> 00:20:48,914
Uh... where's your dad?
461
00:20:48,997 --> 00:20:50,415
Well, he had to work late,
462
00:20:50,499 --> 00:20:52,834
so Uncle Terrence
picked me up from school,
463
00:20:52,918 --> 00:20:54,878
since he's the only one
who cares about me.
464
00:20:54,962 --> 00:20:57,422
Really, Naima? [scoffs]
465
00:20:57,506 --> 00:20:59,216
Why don't you go finish
your homework in your room
466
00:20:59,299 --> 00:21:01,510
while I talk to Uncle Terrence?
467
00:21:01,593 --> 00:21:03,262
Okay. Bye, Uncle Terrence.
468
00:21:03,345 --> 00:21:05,681
Ah! [grunting]
469
00:21:05,764 --> 00:21:07,891
- Yeah. [laughs]
- Love you, baby.
470
00:21:07,975 --> 00:21:09,059
Love you too.

[Jax clears throat]
474
00:21:19,194 --> 00:21:21,863
I know Lewis told you
what's been going on,
475
00:21:21,947 --> 00:21:23,490
and I know you're probably on his side.
476
00:21:23,573 --> 00:21:25,742
No, my brother nearly blew up
his life for a side chick.
477
00:21:25,826 --> 00:21:27,452
I'm not on his side.
478
00:21:28,453 --> 00:21:30,831
But I'm not on your side either.
479
00:21:30,914 --> 00:21:32,499
I know you have
your own opinions, Terrence,
480
00:21:32,582 --> 00:21:35,002
but at the end of the day,
he is my husband.
481
00:21:35,085 --> 00:21:36,837
And he's my brother.
482
00:21:36,920 --> 00:21:39,131
And as much as I love you, Jax,
you scare me
483
00:21:39,214 --> 00:21:40,424
because when the going gets tough--
484
00:21:40,507 --> 00:21:42,342
I'm still here, Terrence.
485
00:21:43,343 --> 00:21:44,803
For now.
486
00:21:44,886 --> 00:21:46,888
But this shit with this baby,
it's gonna be a lot.
487
00:21:46,972 --> 00:21:48,098
And not just this year.
488
00:21:48,181 --> 00:21:50,475
Are you okay with him
putting away less for retirement
489
00:21:50,559 --> 00:21:52,686
to pay a college tuition for another kid?
490
00:21:52,769 --> 00:21:54,062
And blended family holidays?
491
00:21:54,146 --> 00:21:55,397
That-That's just a tiny piece of it.
492
00:21:55,480 --> 00:21:59,693
So, let me ask you this, Jax,
are you really gonna be all in?
493
00:21:59,776 --> 00:22:02,612
Because if not, you need to tell him now.
494
00:22:02,696 --> 00:22:04,323
You already hurt him once,
and I'll be damned
495
00:22:04,406 --> 00:22:05,782
if I let you do it again.
496
00:22:07,117 --> 00:22:10,579
And by the way, you, you, you
keep calling it a "side baby."
497
00:22:10,662 --> 00:22:12,247
It's a "break baby."
498
00:22:12,331 --> 00:22:15,709
A baby that was made
during the break that you both enjoyed.
499
00:22:15,792 --> 00:22:16,918
- Let me tell you something, okay--
- [door opens]
500
00:22:17,002 --> 00:22:18,170
[Spenser] What's up, Uncle Terrence?
501
00:22:18,253 --> 00:22:20,797
- [laughs] Hey, what's going on, kid?
- What's going on, man?
502
00:22:20,881 --> 00:22:22,215
- Hey, baby.
- [Terrence] You lookin' good.
503
00:22:22,299 --> 00:22:23,508
[Spenser] Hey, man. What's up, Mom?
504
00:22:23,592 --> 00:22:25,177
- What's going on, babe?
- [Jax] Hey.
505
00:22:25,260 --> 00:22:26,762
Hey.
506
00:22:26,845 --> 00:22:28,180
- Yo.
- Hey-hey-hey. [laughs]

00:30:09,015 --> 00:30:12,477
I also helped her find a therapist
for her and for Jordan.
676
00:30:12,560 --> 00:30:16,147
She wanted to leave,
but her kids, they mean everything to her.
677
00:30:17,440 --> 00:30:18,983
No further questions.
678
00:30:22,070 --> 00:30:26,199
Mrs. Braswell, please, take a look
at Defense exhibit 35.
679
00:30:26,282 --> 00:30:27,534
There are 15 items on the list.
680
00:30:27,617 --> 00:30:29,327
How many did you
and the defendant complete together?
681
00:30:29,410 --> 00:30:30,411
Four.
682
00:30:30,495 --> 00:30:33,373
In all those months,
you only finished four items?
683
00:30:33,456 --> 00:30:36,084
Yeah, we moved slow
so she would stay alive.
684
00:30:36,167 --> 00:30:38,586
Okay, so, on what day
was she supposed to leave Mr. Tucker?
685
00:30:38,670 --> 00:30:40,129
We didn't have an exact date.
686
00:30:40,213 --> 00:30:42,757
Well, if you were helping your sister,
why didn't you have a date in mind?
687
00:30:42,841 --> 00:30:45,635
She was giving up her marriage,
her home, her entire life,
688
00:30:45,718 --> 00:30:47,095
that's not easy, quick, or cheap.
689
00:30:47,178 --> 00:30:49,138
Interesting that you should mention money.
690
00:30:49,222 --> 00:30:52,892
Were all of the items
that you two sold owned by the defendant?
691
00:30:52,976 --> 00:30:54,060
Yes, of cours
692
00:30:54,143 --> 00:30:57,105
I'm now showing you People's Exhibit 47.
Do you know what that is?
693
00:30:57,188 --> 00:30:58,982
Yes, it's a receipt for a jersey.
694
00:30:59,065 --> 00:31:00,483
Please, read the text at the bottom.
695
00:31:00,567 --> 00:31:02,402
"Verified jersey as worn by JT."
696
00:31:02,485 --> 00:31:04,112
- Did it belong to the victim?
- Yes.
697
00:31:04,195 --> 00:31:05,446
Did you and the defendant sell it?
698
00:31:05,530 --> 00:31:07,240
Yes, he had a million of them
laying around.
699
00:31:07,323 --> 00:31:08,908
Everything else we sold was hers.
700
00:31:08,992 --> 00:31:10,910
So, when you weren't stealing from him,
701
00:31:10,994 --> 00:31:14,956
did you ever see the victim
inflict injuries on the defendant?
702
00:31:15,039 --> 00:31:16,165
- No.
- [Lucy] No?
703
00:31:16,249 --> 00:31:18,710
Even the night that you,
allegedly, called the police
704
00:31:18,793 --> 00:31:21,045
after a shouting match, he didn't hit her.
705
00:31:21,129 --> 00:31:23,423
So, how do you know
that the victim is responsible
706
00:31:23,506 --> 00:31:24,757
for the injuries in this photo?
707
00:31:24,841 --> 00:31:27,218
Shanelle would not lie to me
about something so personal.
708
00:31:27,302 --> 00:31:29,679
Oh, so you knew that she was
having an affair with Adrian Hunter?
709
00:31:29,762 --> 00:31:31,139
- No.
- [Lucy] Oh. [laughs]
710
00:31:31,222 --> 00:31:33,349
So, sometimes, the defendant steals
711
00:31:33,433 --> 00:31:35,727
and keeps big secrets from you.
712
00:31:35,810 --> 00:31:38,479
A person with a heart that big
does not lie or hurt anyone.
713
00:31:38,563 --> 00:31:42,400
Except for the father of her child
who she caved his skull in.
714
00:31:42,483 --> 00:31:44,193
I'm glad it was him and not her.
715
00:31:44,277 --> 00:31:46,404
That son of a bitch
deserved to fucking die.
716
00:31:46,487 --> 00:31:48,990
[all murmuring]
717
00:31:50,408 --> 00:31:52,160
[exhales]
718
00:31:53,411 --> 00:31:55,079
No further questions.
719
00:32:00,376 --> 00:32:02,462
[♪ tense music playing]
720
00:32:04,339 --> 00:32:06,132
Yo, what happened? Where's Baker?
721
00:32:06,215 --> 00:32:08,217
The morgue.
Today, she found out her court case
722
00:32:08,301 --> 00:32:10,011
[muffled voice fading]
was pushed another nine months,
723
00:32:10,094 --> 00:32:12,847
so I guess she didn't feel
like waiting any longer.
724
00:32:12,931 --> 00:32:14,140
[inaudible dialogue]
725
00:32:23,733 --> 00:32:26,527
[Corey] Sally's testimony
really set our defense back.
726
00:32:26,611 --> 00:32:30,740
We need to find someone else who can show
how Shanelle was trying to leave.
727
00:32:30,823 --> 00:32:33,826
- What about Rebecca Gray?
- No, no, she's tainted by the interview.
728
00:32:33,910 --> 00:32:35,536
Did Daniel ever find Eboni?
729
00:32:35,620 --> 00:32:38,456
The intake nurse who gave him the tour
said she's working again tomorrow night,
730
00:32:38,539 --> 00:32:40,667
so he'll stakeout the rehab then
and see if she'll talk.
731
00:32:40,750 --> 00:32:43,086
But I think we should
still try to get Rebecca.
732
00:32:43,169 --> 00:32:45,797
No, no, no. I'd rather focus on just
733
00:32:45,880 --> 00:32:49,676
pushing Shanelle harder during the prep,
as much as she can handle.
734
00:32:56,432 --> 00:32:59,310
[Baker] Hey, Tucker, you good?
735
00:32:59,394 --> 00:33:01,729
- Pocahontas.
- [Jax] I think you're hiding something.
736
00:33:01,813 --> 00:33:04,273
- [Shanelle Tucker] [crying] I love you.
- [Baker] You got this.
737
00:33:04,357 --> 00:33:06,401
- [Jax] Did you kill JT?
- Stop, stop, stop.
738
00:33:06,484 --> 00:33:08,069
- [Jamarion "JT" Tucker] Shut the fuck up!
- Leave me alone.
739
00:33:08,152 --> 00:33:10,446
- [Baker] Get it together.
- [guard] Did you say something, Tucker?
740
00:33:10,530 --> 00:33:12,657
No, I didn't say anything.
741
00:33:13,658 --> 00:33:15,034
I'm good.
742
00:33:15,118 --> 00:33:16,744
Well, hurry, we ain't got all day.
743
00:33:16,828 --> 00:33:18,329
- Yeah, alright.
- [guard] Hm.
744
00:33:20,206 --> 00:33:22,083
[Mama Lu]
Naima, your mom's here.
745
00:33:22,166 --> 00:33:23,584
Thank you for taking care of her, Mom.
746
00:33:23,668 --> 00:33:24,836
Oh, not a problem.
747
00:33:24,919 --> 00:33:27,255
I'm just glad one of my grandchildren
still wanna hang with me.
748
00:33:27,338 --> 00:33:28,339
[chuckling]
749
00:33:28,423 --> 00:33:30,341
Well, you know
Spenser's getting older, you know,
750
00:33:30,425 --> 00:33:32,427
so we just wanna give him
some more independence.
751
00:33:32,510 --> 00:33:34,804
Let him stay home alone occasionally.
752
00:33:34,887 --> 00:33:36,931
- I trust him.
- Better you than me.
753
00:33:37,015 --> 00:33:38,975
[laughing]
754
00:33:39,058 --> 00:33:42,020
And thank you for being
nice to Naima about Paul.
755
00:33:42,103 --> 00:33:43,438
Mm.
756
00:33:43,521 --> 00:33:45,064
I like Kevin.
757
00:33:45,148 --> 00:33:48,526
- He seems normal.
- [Mama Lu] He is.
758
00:33:49,527 --> 00:33:51,863
I'm happy things are good
with you and Lewis,
759
00:33:51,946 --> 00:33:54,907
not because he's a good man,
but because you are a good woman.
760
00:33:57,118 --> 00:33:58,828
I'm proud of you, Jacqueline.
761
00:33:58,911 --> 00:34:00,288
Oh, thank you, Mom.
762
00:34:01,581 --> 00:34:03,416
- I love you.
- I love you too.
763
00:34:05,168 --> 00:34:07,295
Okay, you have a good night.
I'll call you tomorrow.
764
00:34:07,378 --> 00:34:08,755
Okay, good night.
765
00:34:12,925 --> 00:34:16,345
[Lewis] [scatting] Hey.
766
00:34:16,429 --> 00:34:18,765
[continues scatting]
767
00:34:21,809 --> 00:34:24,771
- Ahh! [sighs]
- Hey.
768
00:34:24,854 --> 00:34:28,066
I take it you and Terrence
had a good time tonight.
769
00:34:28,149 --> 00:34:30,735
Oh, niggas gonna nig, you already know.
770
00:34:30,818 --> 00:34:32,779
Ah! [laughs]
771
00:34:32,862 --> 00:34:34,280
- [sighs]
- Okay?
772
00:34:34,363 --> 00:34:37,283
Um, should I get some Pedialyte,
773
00:34:37,366 --> 00:34:39,619
and a burger from Tommy's now
or in the morning?
774
00:34:39,702 --> 00:34:41,245
Mm-mm, I don't want it.
775
00:34:41,329 --> 00:34:42,580
Well, I can get you something else to eat.
776
00:34:42,663 --> 00:34:45,374
No, I-I'm talkin' about this baby.
777
00:34:45,458 --> 00:34:46,876
[sighs]
778
00:34:46,959 --> 00:34:49,629
It was one night, I fucked up one night,
779
00:34:49,712 --> 00:34:54,092
and now I'm having a baby
with a woman I barely know.
780
00:34:54,175 --> 00:34:56,302
A baby I gotta support,
even though she threatened
781
00:34:56,385 --> 00:34:57,762
to cut me out the baby's life.
782
00:34:57,845 --> 00:34:59,764
Wait, she threatened you?
783
00:34:59,847 --> 00:35:04,018
Yeah, her way or the vroom-vroom highway.
784
00:35:04,102 --> 00:35:07,814
Fuck, and we gotta do this
'til the kid's outta college.
785
00:35:07,897 --> 00:35:10,650
Like... I'ma be 65.
786
00:35:10,733 --> 00:35:12,318
Like, men in my family... [grunts]
787
00:35:12,401 --> 00:35:14,195
men in my family barely see 70.
788
00:35:14,278 --> 00:35:15,696
Okay, wait, baby, here, drink this.
789
00:35:15,780 --> 00:35:17,824
It's too much to think about
when you're drunk.
790
00:35:23,454 --> 00:35:25,623
I wish this baby would go away.
791
00:35:28,000 --> 00:35:29,961
And I...
792
00:35:30,044 --> 00:35:33,548
I hate saying that
about my son, not our son,
793
00:35:33,631 --> 00:35:36,134
my fuckin' son.
794
00:35:36,217 --> 00:35:38,261
[sighs deeply] Fuck.
795
00:35:39,720 --> 00:35:42,932
I'm so sorry, Jax, I'm sorry.
796
00:35:43,015 --> 00:35:46,519
It's okay. It's okay.
797
00:35:46,602 --> 00:35:50,022
Will you forgive me, please?
798
00:35:51,482 --> 00:35:53,568
Like, I, I need you to forgive me, Jax.
799
00:35:53,651 --> 00:35:55,903
Do you forgive me?
800
00:35:55,987 --> 00:35:57,738
I j--
801
00:35:57,822 --> 00:35:59,657
Will you please forgive me?
802
00:36:01,826 --> 00:36:03,286
[Lewis sighs]
803
00:36:14,630 --> 00:36:15,965
[door closes]
804
00:36:27,059 --> 00:36:28,561
[Adrian Hunter] Hey, Shanelle.
805
00:36:31,314 --> 00:36:32,690
Adrian...
806
00:36:34,650 --> 00:36:38,321
you know, I thought for sure your ass
would be on the other side of this glass.
807
00:36:38,404 --> 00:36:41,866
[chuckles] Uh, yeah, yeah, I know. I...
808
00:36:43,284 --> 00:36:45,453
I cut a deal with the Feds.
809
00:36:45,536 --> 00:36:47,163
I still gotta do community service.
810
00:36:47,246 --> 00:36:48,748
I have to pay a fine,
811
00:36:48,831 --> 00:36:51,250
and I have to report to a PO
for the next five years.
812
00:36:52,585 --> 00:36:54,378
It's better than...
813
00:36:56,214 --> 00:36:58,216
I'm sorry.
814
00:36:58,299 --> 00:37:02,845
And I appreciate what you said
up on the witness stand, but...
815
00:37:05,765 --> 00:37:08,142
that don't mean I forgive you.
816
00:37:08,226 --> 00:37:10,228
- You lied to me.
- I know, I--
817
00:37:10,311 --> 00:37:14,106
And after Jamarion, you know damn well
how hard it was for me to trust anybody.
818
00:37:14,190 --> 00:37:16,817
Shanelle, I'm sorry, okay?
The shit I did was fucked up...
819
00:37:17,902 --> 00:37:20,071
but I didn't lie about
how I felt about you.
820
00:37:21,197 --> 00:37:22,698
I love you, Shanelle.
821
00:37:23,908 --> 00:37:25,451
Listen, I...
822
00:37:27,870 --> 00:37:29,872
my career's over.
823
00:37:29,956 --> 00:37:32,500
I got cut from the team.
They said I'm too much of a distraction.
824
00:37:32,583 --> 00:37:34,168
I can't get my money.
825
00:37:34,252 --> 00:37:37,088
My assets are frozen.
I've lost everything.
826
00:37:37,171 --> 00:37:39,799
But I don't care about any of that
827
00:37:39,882 --> 00:37:42,510
because the one thing
I did not want to lose is you.
828
00:37:42,593 --> 00:37:44,762
Yeah, well,
it's a little too late for that.
829
00:37:45,846 --> 00:37:47,348
I don't believe that.
830
00:37:48,808 --> 00:37:50,059
When you get out of here,
831
00:37:50,142 --> 00:37:53,521
when you beat this case,
because you will beat this case...
832
00:37:54,939 --> 00:37:56,065
I wanna be with you.
833
00:37:57,191 --> 00:37:59,360
And not just for a day,
not just for a weekend,
834
00:37:59,443 --> 00:38:02,697
I wanna be with you... forever.
835
00:38:07,660 --> 00:38:09,870
Shanelle, will you marry me?
836
00:38:15,459 --> 00:38:16,919
[exhales]
837
00:38:17,003 --> 00:38:21,549
Okay, yeah, um, I know,
it's, it's, it's a lot to take in.
838
00:38:21,632 --> 00:38:23,259
I know it's a lot, but...
839
00:38:24,760 --> 00:38:26,512
but promise me you'll think about it.
840
00:38:39,942 --> 00:38:41,319
[winces]
841
00:38:45,489 --> 00:38:47,033
Thank you.
842
00:38:47,116 --> 00:38:48,409
Thank you, too.
843
00:38:51,829 --> 00:38:54,874
You helped me through
my mistakes with Damon.
844
00:38:54,957 --> 00:38:58,085
You loved me when
I couldn't imagine you would.
845
00:38:58,169 --> 00:39:00,546
I was humbled.
846
00:39:00,629 --> 00:39:02,131
I've never been loved like that.
847
00:39:02,214 --> 00:39:06,302
Unconditionally, when I was at my worst?
848
00:39:06,385 --> 00:39:09,388
This shit is hard, Lewis,
849
00:39:10,389 --> 00:39:11,599
but I am right here.
850
00:39:11,682 --> 00:39:14,226
I am walking this road with you...
851
00:39:15,227 --> 00:39:17,563
but it's not easy.
852
00:39:17,646 --> 00:39:21,484
And, sometimes, I wonder
if I'm making the right decision.
853
00:39:24,278 --> 00:39:27,365
But I know I'd rather do this shit
with you than without you.
854
00:39:28,908 --> 00:39:32,244
And I'm showing you that
every day with my actions.
855
00:39:32,328 --> 00:39:34,789
But you constantly
asking me to forgive you
856
00:39:34,872 --> 00:39:38,084
makes you feel better, not me.
857
00:39:43,130 --> 00:39:44,965
You're right, Jax.
858
00:39:47,676 --> 00:39:52,056
I appreciate you so much,
and I respect that.
859
00:40:00,773 --> 00:40:03,025
Now, Ms. Wargo will bring up
that TZT interview.
860
00:40:03,109 --> 00:40:07,113
Ohh. You know, if I had known
that interview might hurt your case,
861
00:40:07,196 --> 00:40:08,989
I would've never done the darn thing.
862
00:40:09,073 --> 00:40:10,908
All I wanna do is help Mrs. Tucker.
863
00:40:10,991 --> 00:40:12,159
And you will.
864
00:40:12,243 --> 00:40:15,037
Just answer the questions
as they're asked and we'll be right here.
865
00:40:15,121 --> 00:40:16,705
- Let's get on with it.
- Okay.
866
00:40:20,709 --> 00:40:22,628
I hope you're right about this.
867
00:40:22,711 --> 00:40:24,380
And what do you do, Mrs. Gray?
868
00:40:24,463 --> 00:40:27,049
I'm a clerk
at an LA County Self-Help Center.
869
00:40:27,133 --> 00:40:29,635
I help people apply
for restraining orders.
870
00:40:29,718 --> 00:40:31,303
Been doing it for 12 years now.
871
00:40:31,387 --> 00:40:34,723
Now, will you walk us through
a typical work day?
872
00:40:34,807 --> 00:40:37,601
Well, when someone comes in,
I answer their questions
873
00:40:37,685 --> 00:40:39,854
and explain how to get
a restraining order.
874
00:40:39,937 --> 00:40:41,772
Have you ever met Mrs. Tucker?
875
00:40:41,856 --> 00:40:44,191
[Rebecca Gray]
Yes, I remember her coming in.
876
00:40:44,275 --> 00:40:47,403
A lot of women come in
in hats and sunglasses.
877
00:40:47,486 --> 00:40:50,197
But I remember she had
the biggest diamond ring
878
00:40:50,281 --> 00:40:51,490
I've ever seen.
879
00:40:51,574 --> 00:40:54,076
And then I remembered I saw her on TV.
880
00:40:54,160 --> 00:40:57,705
My wife and I,
we watch those ESPY award shows.
881
00:40:57,788 --> 00:40:59,039
What else do you remember?
882
00:40:59,123 --> 00:41:01,500
She asked if restraining orders
were a public record.
883
00:41:01,584 --> 00:41:02,585
I said yes.
884
00:41:02,668 --> 00:41:04,420
Now, Mrs. Gray, do you recall
885
00:41:04,503 --> 00:41:07,506
if Mrs. Tucker ever got
the restraining order?
886
00:41:07,590 --> 00:41:09,550
No, she left without filing.
887
00:41:09,633 --> 00:41:11,302
- Thank you.
- [Rebecca] Mm-hm.
888
00:41:14,597 --> 00:41:16,640
How many people do you see a day?
889
00:41:16,724 --> 00:41:18,225
A few dozen.
890
00:41:18,309 --> 00:41:19,435
Let's say two dozen.
891
00:41:19,518 --> 00:41:21,437
How long did you interact
with the defendant?
892
00:41:21,520 --> 00:41:23,147
Maybe 10 minutes.
893
00:41:23,230 --> 00:41:26,317
So, you see two dozen people a day,
five days a week,
894
00:41:26,400 --> 00:41:27,610
50 weeks a year.
895
00:41:27,693 --> 00:41:29,862
That's 6,000 a year.
896
00:41:29,945 --> 00:41:33,157
Over 12 years, that's 72,000 people.
897
00:41:33,240 --> 00:41:36,911
And yet, you remember one woman
that you saw for 10 minutes?
898
00:41:36,994 --> 00:41:38,454
I can never forget her.
899
00:41:38,537 --> 00:41:40,956
Is that what you told TZT
when you sold your story?
900
00:41:41,040 --> 00:41:43,125
- Objection.
- Withdrawn.
901
00:41:43,209 --> 00:41:44,543
- [Corey] Mrs. Gray
- [Rebecca] Mm-hm.
902
00:41:44,627 --> 00:41:46,795
How do you remember Mrs. Tucker?
903
00:41:46,879 --> 00:41:48,797
Because she left without filing.
904
00:41:48,881 --> 00:41:52,426
I may not have known her name,
but I remember her face
905
00:41:52,510 --> 00:41:53,844
because she left.
906
00:41:53,928 --> 00:41:56,972
Those are the ones I worry about more,
907
00:41:57,056 --> 00:41:58,599
not the ones who stay
908
00:41:58,682 --> 00:42:00,518
and work past their tears
909
00:42:00,601 --> 00:42:03,729
when they're describing the horrific acts
that brought them here.
910
00:42:03,812 --> 00:42:06,982
But it's the ones
who are afraid of someone,
911
00:42:07,066 --> 00:42:08,943
but they're afraid to admit it.
912
00:42:09,026 --> 00:42:11,320
Those are the ones
that keep me up at night.
913
00:42:11,403 --> 00:42:13,239
Those are the ones I remember.
914
00:42:13,322 --> 00:42:15,533
That's why I remember Mrs. Tucker.
915
00:42:16,575 --> 00:42:18,118
She was scared.
916
00:42:18,202 --> 00:42:24,083
She had tears,
but then she left, alone, with nothing.
917
00:42:25,668 --> 00:42:27,836
Alone with nothing.
918
00:42:28,837 --> 00:42:30,297
Thank you.
919
00:42:34,718 --> 00:42:37,221
Let me just say it again.
I was right.
920
00:42:37,304 --> 00:42:38,722
Oh, so you just can't get enough,
can you?
921
00:42:38,806 --> 00:42:41,267
I really can't. I really can't.
Just one more time, please.
922
00:42:41,350 --> 00:42:43,978
Okay, you were...
923
00:42:44,061 --> 00:42:45,688
- right about Rebecca Gray.
- Oh!
924
00:42:45,771 --> 00:42:48,315
And I'm the best lawyer
you have ever worked with.
925
00:42:48,399 --> 00:42:50,609
- And... don't push it.
- [laughing]
926
00:42:52,319 --> 00:42:54,488
So, you have any big plans for tonight?
927
00:42:54,572 --> 00:42:56,365
No, no, just headed back to the office.
928
00:42:56,448 --> 00:42:57,449
- [Jax] Hm.
- You?
929
00:42:57,533 --> 00:43:00,494
Picking up the kids,
dinner with the family
930
00:43:00,578 --> 00:43:01,996
before prepping for tomorrow.
931
00:43:03,330 --> 00:43:07,251
Well, listen, I, I know I said
I was gonna keep it professional, right?
932
00:43:07,334 --> 00:43:09,587
And I, and I hope I'm not
about to cross the line,
933
00:43:09,670 --> 00:43:12,423
but Lewis is a very lucky man.
934
00:43:14,008 --> 00:43:15,426
I'll pass along the message.
935
00:43:15,509 --> 00:43:17,469
Oh, please don't.
936
00:43:17,553 --> 00:43:18,887
Good night.
937
00:43:20,014 --> 00:43:21,140
Good night.
938
00:43:27,646 --> 00:43:29,106
[door closes]
939
00:43:33,110 --> 00:43:34,945
- Hey.
- Hey.
940
00:43:38,741 --> 00:43:40,159
It's really good to see you.
941
00:43:40,242 --> 00:43:42,620
I'm sorry it's taken a while.
942
00:43:42,703 --> 00:43:45,497
I can't imagine what it feels like
to spend your days in here.
943
00:43:47,625 --> 00:43:51,128
Yeah, well, I can't explain it myself, so.
944
00:43:53,505 --> 00:43:57,051
I just wanna apologize to you
because, for whatever reason,
945
00:43:57,134 --> 00:43:59,637
you didn't feel comfortable
telling me about the abuse,
946
00:43:59,720 --> 00:44:01,096
which is my fault.
947
00:44:01,180 --> 00:44:03,098
What? No.
948
00:44:03,182 --> 00:44:06,143
Autumn, it's really not.
949
00:44:08,270 --> 00:44:10,356
Jamarion fucked me up, girl.
950
00:44:11,690 --> 00:44:15,235
He made me feel small
even around you guys.
951
00:44:15,319 --> 00:44:17,321
He reminded me I was just a housewife.
952
00:44:17,404 --> 00:44:20,032
You know, he convinced me that y'all
thought y'all were better than me.
953
00:44:20,115 --> 00:44:21,158
Wow!
954
00:44:22,159 --> 00:44:24,453
Girl, that's fucked up,
and not true at all.
955
00:44:24,536 --> 00:44:25,746
I know that now.
956
00:44:25,829 --> 00:44:28,999
And the only reason I'm a therapist
is because I'm a head case myself.
957
00:44:29,083 --> 00:44:30,542
We all know Sally's a mess,
958
00:44:30,626 --> 00:44:33,295
and didn't Jax get kidnapped
by her side piece?
959
00:44:33,379 --> 00:44:35,381
[Autumn laughing]
960
00:44:40,052 --> 00:44:45,849
Shanelle, honey, you are worthy of love
just the way you are.
961
00:44:45,933 --> 00:44:49,687
No matter what's going on
with you or any of us,
962
00:44:49,770 --> 00:44:52,064
if you get anything out of all of this,
963
00:44:52,147 --> 00:44:54,566
I hope you remember that.
964
00:44:56,026 --> 00:44:57,403
- Okay?
- [sniffles]
965
00:44:59,488 --> 00:45:00,531
Thank you.
966
00:45:00,614 --> 00:45:02,282
[Autumn Owens] You're welcome, baby.
967
00:45:03,492 --> 00:45:05,202
I love you, girl.
968
00:45:05,285 --> 00:45:06,453
[Shanelle] Thank you.
969
00:45:06,537 --> 00:45:09,081
We're gonna get you out of here.
970
00:45:13,502 --> 00:45:14,962
[exhales]
971
00:45:16,922 --> 00:45:19,133
I heard you threatened
to take Lewis's baby away.
972
00:45:19,216 --> 00:45:21,051
Well, it's not just his baby.
973
00:45:21,135 --> 00:45:24,513
Exactly, this baby has two parents,
you and Lewis,
974
00:45:24,596 --> 00:45:26,056
which means he has rights.
975
00:45:26,140 --> 00:45:28,434
So, we're involved
whether you like it or not.
976
00:45:28,517 --> 00:45:30,602
Now, the easy way to do this
is where we compromise
977
00:45:30,686 --> 00:45:31,895
and we all work together.
978
00:45:31,979 --> 00:45:34,314
The hard way is where you
hire an expensive lawyer
979
00:45:34,398 --> 00:45:35,691
and we all end up in court.
980
00:45:35,774 --> 00:45:37,443
Do you really wanna
face me in court again?
981
00:45:37,526 --> 00:45:38,652
Are you threatening me?
982
00:45:38,736 --> 00:45:40,738
No, I'm reminding you who I am.
983
00:45:40,821 --> 00:45:43,198
And if you think I fight hard
for my friends, bitch,
984
00:45:43,282 --> 00:45:45,325
wait until you see
what I do for my family.
985
00:45:45,409 --> 00:45:47,244
Who do you think you're talking to?
986
00:45:47,327 --> 00:45:49,705
- Hey.
- Hey, baby.
987
00:45:49,788 --> 00:45:51,123
- How was school?
- How was school?
988
00:45:51,206 --> 00:45:52,207
Good.
989
00:45:53,208 --> 00:45:54,668
- Good to see you, Toni.
- [Toni] Mm-hm.
990
00:45:54,752 --> 00:45:55,878

Oh, my God. What am I gonna do?

I am so sorry, Lucy.

Excuse me.
Uh, hi, are you Eboni Phillips?
999
00:46:19,651 --> 00:46:21,028
- Yes?
- [Daniel Kim] Great.
1000
00:46:21,111 --> 00:46:22,613
Uh, I've been trying
to get in touch with you.
1001
00:46:22,696 --> 00:46:24,656
- I just have a couple questions.
- I don't talk to reporters.
1002
00:46:24,740 --> 00:46:26,909
- No, sorry, I'm not a reporter.
- Kick rocks before I have to pull
1003
00:46:26,992 --> 00:46:28,827
- my taser out of my purse.
- I'm sorry, l-l-let me just run it back.
1004
00:46:28,911 --> 00:46:31,455
My name is Daniel Kim,
and I work for Shanelle Tucker's defense.

took Natasha from you

when you went into rehab
1007
00:46:35,709 --> 00:46:39,505
We need you to testify about
everything between you and JT.
1008
00:46:39,588 --> 00:46:41,548
Tell your side of the story.
