1
00:00:02,467 --> 00:00:04,405
I used to be just like you.

2
00:00:07,727 --> 00:00:08,976
Mm.

3
00:00:08,977 --> 00:00:10,437
I had a wife I loved.

4
00:00:12,687 --> 00:00:14,857
I had a family and a home.

5
00:00:16,277 --> 00:00:18,446
I owned a business.

6
00:00:18,447 --> 00:00:20,156
I paid my taxes.

7
00:00:20,157 --> 00:00:22,026
Got you!

8
00:00:22,027 --> 00:00:23,286
I had my friends.

9
00:00:24,947 --> 00:00:25,996
Say "cheese."

10
00:00:29,287 --> 00:00:30,746
Some of them were the kind of friends

11
00:00:30,747 --> 00:00:31,996
you'd be better off without.

12
00:00:31,997 --> 00:00:33,796
Maybe I should've known.

13
00:00:33,797 --> 00:00:35,296
NYPD! Search warrant!

14
00:00:35,297 --> 00:00:37,046
- Hands up!
- Don't move!

15
00:00:37,047 --> 00:00:38,466
Show me your hands!
Stay where you are!

16
00:00:45,807 --> 00:00:47,346
No!

17
00:00:47,347 --> 00:00:48,976
Aaron!

18
00:00:48,977 --> 00:00:52,056
He didn't do anything!

19
00:00:52,057 --> 00:00:53,476
How long have you been bringing in drugs?

20
00:00:53,477 --> 00:00:55,526
I told you, I had no idea...

21
00:00:58,027 --> 00:01:00,907
The powers that be
came down on me.

22
00:01:02,283 --> 00:01:06,703
So, here I am now, nine years later,

23
00:01:06,890 --> 00:01:09,690
for the first time,
back in the same courthouse

24
00:01:09,715 --> 00:01:11,585
where they came to take my life away.

25
00:01:13,087 --> 00:01:14,666
Except today,

26
00:01:14,667 --> 00:01:16,956
no matter what anybody thinks about me,

27
00:01:16,957 --> 00:01:19,756
about who I am and how I got here,

28
00:01:19,757 --> 00:01:22,926
today I've got a way to fight back.

29
00:01:22,927 --> 00:01:25,056
And you can be damn sure
that's what I'm going to do.

30
00:01:25,057 --> 00:01:26,176
Mrs. Rodriguez.

31
00:01:37,027 --> 00:01:39,646
Now, remember,
this is just about arguing the motion

32
00:01:39,647 --> 00:01:41,236
to get your retrial.

33
00:01:41,237 --> 00:01:43,777
We're not even coming out of here
today with a decision on that.

34
00:01:46,487 --> 00:01:47,447
Hey.

35
00:01:47,448 --> 00:01:48,889
You're innocent.

36
00:01:48,890 --> 00:01:50,489
You were overcharged.

37
00:01:50,490 --> 00:01:52,286
You've done time you never should have.

38
00:01:52,287 --> 00:01:53,932
We're gonna end that.

39
00:01:54,957 --> 00:01:58,126
Yeah. Yeah, well,
what do you want me to say?

40
00:01:58,127 --> 00:02:00,046
Rookie bailed... his wife's pregnant,

41
00:02:00,047 --> 00:02:03,086
she needed to go to the O. B.,
blah, blah.

42
00:02:03,087 --> 00:02:04,966
I just caught this
eight minutes ago.

43
00:02:04,967 --> 00:02:06,966
Look, order the drinks,
give me 30, I'll meet you there.

44
00:02:06,967 --> 00:02:08,137
Yeah.

45
00:02:20,397 --> 00:02:22,106
How are you here?

46
00:02:22,107 --> 00:02:23,736
Hard work and good will.

47
00:02:23,737 --> 00:02:25,026
What's your method?

48
00:02:25,027 --> 00:02:26,617
All rise.

49
00:02:30,537 --> 00:02:32,116
Mr. Wallace,

50
00:02:32,117 --> 00:02:33,746
I understand this will be your first time

51
00:02:33,747 --> 00:02:35,126
arguing before the bench.

52
00:02:35,127 --> 00:02:36,876
It is, Your Honor.

53
00:02:36,877 --> 00:02:38,126
I won't hold it against you,

54
00:02:38,127 --> 00:02:39,710
as long as you know what you're doing.

55
00:02:39,711 --> 00:02:41,917
I guess we'll see about that,
Your Honor.

56
00:02:42,583 --> 00:02:44,633
Let's have at it, then.

57
00:02:45,853 --> 00:02:48,483
So, this is it now. Day One.

58
00:02:48,508 --> 00:02:50,548
I wasn't expecting him to be here,

59
00:02:50,597 --> 00:02:52,016
but that's all right.

60
00:02:52,017 --> 00:02:53,596
It'll only make this sweeter.

61
00:02:53,597 --> 00:02:56,186
See, ADA Dez O'Reilly

62
00:02:56,187 --> 00:02:58,146
is one of the bastards
that put me away...

63
00:03:03,067 --> 00:03:04,406
That's right.

64
00:03:04,407 --> 00:03:05,831
I, Aaron Wallace,

65
00:03:05,832 --> 00:03:08,601
am under the permanent custody
of the State of New York,

66
00:03:08,602 --> 00:03:10,863
serving a life sentence
for something I didn't do.

67
00:03:20,047 --> 00:03:22,586
Let's go, boys. Step up.

68
00:03:24,047 --> 00:03:25,756
Wallace.

69
00:03:27,137 --> 00:03:29,716
Rodriguez.

70
00:03:31,717 --> 00:03:33,726
Mouth.

71
00:03:33,727 --> 00:03:34,806
Squat.

72
00:03:36,057 --> 00:03:37,516
Cough.

73
00:03:39,107 --> 00:03:41,316
So now you're probably asking yourself

74
00:03:41,317 --> 00:03:44,099
how was I sitting in
that courthouse in that suit?

75
00:03:58,327 --> 00:04:01,055
But for me, the question

76
00:04:01,056 --> 00:04:02,782
isn't how I could be
out there in the world.

77
00:04:04,982 --> 00:04:06,796
The question is, how can I be in here?

78
00:04:09,672 --> 00:04:12,052
And how am I ever gonna get out?

79
00:04:12,985 --> 00:04:17,859
Synced & corrected by -robtor-

80
00:04:17,934 --> 00:04:20,144
You got 90 seconds to tell me
how the hell it happened.

81
00:04:20,169 --> 00:04:21,629
So, apparently when he got to prison,

82
00:04:21,654 --> 00:04:23,484
he went to work for
the paralegal association,

83
00:04:23,509 --> 00:04:24,889
representing inmates

84
00:04:24,914 --> 00:04:26,484
in their internal cases inside prison.

85
00:04:26,552 --> 00:04:27,691
Yeah, I'm familiar.

86
00:04:27,692 --> 00:04:29,821
That got him unlimited access
to the library.

87
00:04:29,822 --> 00:04:31,231
From there,
college and law degrees online,

88
00:04:31,232 --> 00:04:32,741
then he figured out

89
00:04:32,742 --> 00:04:34,701
some totally insane loophole
in the system.

90
00:04:34,702 --> 00:04:36,991
First, he took the Vermont bar,
which is the only state

91
00:04:36,992 --> 00:04:38,871
where you can sit for the bar exam

92
00:04:38,872 --> 00:04:40,831
with a degree from
an unaccredited law school.

93
00:04:40,832 --> 00:04:42,661
Then, he applied to have his license

94
00:04:42,662 --> 00:04:44,791
accepted reciprocally in New York.

95
00:04:44,792 --> 00:04:46,671
But he's a convicted drug dealer.

96
00:04:46,672 --> 00:04:48,041
He couldn't have passed the morality test

97
00:04:48,042 --> 00:04:50,091
without someone with serious juice.

98
00:04:50,092 --> 00:04:52,511
Remember Henry Roswell?

99
00:04:52,512 --> 00:04:54,761
Retired state senator,
former public defender?

100
00:04:54,762 --> 00:04:55,841
Of course.

101
00:04:55,842 --> 00:04:57,381
Well, in his spare time,

102
00:04:57,382 --> 00:04:59,601
he arbitrates prison paralegal cases.

103
00:04:59,602 --> 00:05:01,391
Apparently he was impressed with Wallace

104
00:05:01,392 --> 00:05:02,521
and sponsored him for the bar.

105
00:05:02,522 --> 00:05:04,561
Unbelievable. What's this case, anyway?

106
00:05:04,562 --> 00:05:06,691
Latino kid in for statutory rape.

107
00:05:06,692 --> 00:05:08,561
Plus, the girl OD'd on drugs he gave her.

108
00:05:08,562 --> 00:05:10,401
He's serving 20 on the sex
charge and attempted murder.

109
00:05:10,402 --> 00:05:11,691
And they're looking for a retrial?

110
00:05:11,692 --> 00:05:13,401
They say the kid never bought the drugs,

111
00:05:13,402 --> 00:05:14,531
claim the dealer's changing his story.

112
00:05:14,532 --> 00:05:16,111
- Who's the judge?
- It's Tanaka.

113
00:05:16,112 --> 00:05:17,781
But Wallace is a joke.

114
00:05:17,782 --> 00:05:19,161
Plus, he's popping his cherry on this.

115
00:05:19,162 --> 00:05:20,951
I'll run rings around him,
if it comes to that.

116
00:05:20,952 --> 00:05:22,621
All right, but I need to be in the loop.

117
00:05:22,622 --> 00:05:24,751
The second you get Tanaka's
ruling, I want to know.

118
00:05:24,752 --> 00:05:26,412
You got it.

119
00:05:27,712 --> 00:05:29,631
This all for your case?

120
00:05:29,632 --> 00:05:31,631
Yep.

121
00:05:31,632 --> 00:05:33,961
- That's the dude going against us now?
- Uh-huh.

122
00:05:33,962 --> 00:05:36,302
Yeah, you know, that's what
I was kind of wondering about.

123
00:05:37,552 --> 00:05:39,391
What went down in court yesterday,

124
00:05:39,392 --> 00:05:42,141
it seems like it's personal
between you and him.

125
00:05:42,142 --> 00:05:44,351
It's not going to affect
how I do anything.

126
00:05:44,352 --> 00:05:46,731
I was talking to my Grandma,
and she's kind of concerned

127
00:05:46,732 --> 00:05:48,641
that if, like, they got
something against you already,

128
00:05:48,642 --> 00:05:49,941
it may make things harder for me.

129
00:05:49,942 --> 00:05:51,460
Got somebody else lined up?

130
00:05:52,402 --> 00:05:54,981
I don't think she did very well
by you the last time around.

131
00:05:54,982 --> 00:05:56,651
I-I know. I know. I just...

132
00:05:56,652 --> 00:05:58,241
I bet you think you know
what I've been doing in here

133
00:05:58,242 --> 00:06:00,051
over all these years.

134
00:06:00,822 --> 00:06:03,180
Fighting the system
that screwed me over, right?

135
00:06:03,832 --> 00:06:05,182
Wrong.

136
00:06:06,122 --> 00:06:09,711
What I do as prison rep
is commodity to keep me alive.

137
00:06:09,712 --> 00:06:12,481
Becoming a lawyer
is what's getting me out.

138
00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:15,092
You're just the first.

139
00:06:15,692 --> 00:06:18,421
I'm gonna use your case
to start attacking the D. A.

140
00:06:18,422 --> 00:06:21,221
Day by day, case by case.

141
00:06:21,222 --> 00:06:23,351
Time I'm done

142
00:06:23,352 --> 00:06:25,761
and he's soft and his credit's shot,

143
00:06:25,762 --> 00:06:28,413
that's how I'm gonna prove
that he worked me over.

144
00:06:28,812 --> 00:06:30,981
Everything I do, everything I've done

145
00:06:30,982 --> 00:06:33,481
is about getting my freedom,
getting back to my family.

146
00:06:33,482 --> 00:06:35,962
You want another lawyer? Have at it.

147
00:06:37,322 --> 00:06:40,492
But you're not gonna find
anybody more motivated than me.

148
00:06:49,252 --> 00:06:50,711
How the hell am I supposed to
pay for that?

149
00:06:50,712 --> 00:06:52,041
You're supposed to do
what I tell you to do.

150
00:06:55,422 --> 00:06:57,901
Hey, how you doin'?

151
00:06:58,592 --> 00:07:00,171
Good.

152
00:07:00,172 --> 00:07:02,197
Long drive.

153
00:07:02,722 --> 00:07:06,141
I, uh, got you some ties,
'case you need 'em for court.

154
00:07:06,142 --> 00:07:07,932
- Thanks.
- Mm-hmm.

155
00:07:09,408 --> 00:07:11,038
Still no Jazz, huh?

156
00:07:12,142 --> 00:07:14,584
Sorry. She got extra SAT prep today.

157
00:07:16,482 --> 00:07:18,191
- That her report card?
- Yeah.

158
00:07:18,192 --> 00:07:19,942
- Gotta sign it, right?
- Yep.

159
00:07:30,252 --> 00:07:32,041
You okay with these grades?

160
00:07:32,042 --> 00:07:33,541
Kids have ups and downs, Aaron.

161
00:07:33,542 --> 00:07:35,631
She quit gymnastics.

162
00:07:35,632 --> 00:07:36,961
She looks exhausted.

163
00:07:36,962 --> 00:07:38,881
And last time I saw her,

164
00:07:38,882 --> 00:07:40,671
- I'm damn near sure she was stoned.
- She's not stoned.

165
00:07:40,672 --> 00:07:42,051
Something's goin' on,
and whatever it is...

166
00:07:42,052 --> 00:07:43,471
- It's on me, right?
- No, it's on Darius.

167
00:07:43,472 --> 00:07:45,479
- Come on.
- He's not hard enough on her.

168
00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:46,540
He's not her father.

169
00:07:46,565 --> 00:07:47,891
Well, if he's not willing to
take on that responsibility,

170
00:07:47,892 --> 00:07:49,771
maybe he should get out of your bed.

171
00:07:49,772 --> 00:07:51,561
Well, I might kick him out
if you came back home,

172
00:07:51,562 --> 00:07:53,142
but you're not, 'cause
you're locked up for life.

173
00:07:59,692 --> 00:08:01,572
You're not telling me something.

174
00:08:08,412 --> 00:08:10,042
You should've taken the plea.

175
00:08:11,582 --> 00:08:13,541
It was 20 years, Marie.

176
00:08:13,542 --> 00:08:15,211
You would've got parole in 12...

177
00:08:15,212 --> 00:08:17,355
Three years from now.

178
00:08:19,422 --> 00:08:21,262
I would've waited for you.

179
00:08:23,697 --> 00:08:26,697
And Jasmine would still have her father.

180
00:08:33,812 --> 00:08:35,311
Hey.

181
00:08:40,402 --> 00:08:42,422
You remember what I was like?

182
00:08:42,992 --> 00:08:44,991
The kind of...

183
00:08:52,542 --> 00:08:57,371
Every day, every second
I'm not there for her...

184
00:08:57,372 --> 00:08:58,581
for you...

185
00:09:04,172 --> 00:09:05,591
I'm sorry, I can't.

186
00:09:05,592 --> 00:09:08,181
No, Marie, come back. Marie!

187
00:09:08,182 --> 00:09:09,641
Marie, come back!

188
00:09:09,642 --> 00:09:11,221
Marie!

189
00:09:19,862 --> 00:09:21,901
Guards! Got a fight down here!

190
00:09:21,902 --> 00:09:23,571
Get 'em out of here now!

191
00:09:23,572 --> 00:09:25,281
Separate and restrict them both
to their cells

192
00:09:25,282 --> 00:09:27,701
for the rest of the day!

193
00:09:27,702 --> 00:09:29,821
Warden on the Tier!

194
00:09:31,912 --> 00:09:33,201
What happened?

195
00:09:33,202 --> 00:09:34,831
We're short-handed.

196
00:09:34,832 --> 00:09:36,661
McClintock quit this morning.

197
00:09:36,662 --> 00:09:37,831
I told you some people wouldn't hack it.

198
00:09:37,832 --> 00:09:39,041
Good riddance.

199
00:09:39,042 --> 00:09:40,831
Ma'am, I gotta say,

200
00:09:40,832 --> 00:09:43,381
these reforms, all these changes,

201
00:09:43,382 --> 00:09:45,631
it's all going too quick
for anybody to keep up with.

202
00:09:45,632 --> 00:09:47,591
Look at the numbers, Captain.

203
00:09:47,592 --> 00:09:50,681
This incident not withstanding,
violence is down 34%,

204
00:09:50,682 --> 00:09:52,761
suicide attempts cut in half.

205
00:09:52,762 --> 00:09:54,851
Drug use plummeting... in five months.

206
00:09:54,852 --> 00:09:56,981
Now, your staff may not like the reforms,

207
00:09:56,982 --> 00:09:59,441
but they're working,
and it's your job to sell that.

208
00:09:59,442 --> 00:10:01,191
Now I want to walk the yard.

209
00:10:06,532 --> 00:10:09,281
Warden's down
from the Big House today.

210
00:10:09,282 --> 00:10:11,491
I guess she wants to see
how the other half live.

211
00:10:11,492 --> 00:10:13,491
She must be trippin'...

212
00:10:13,492 --> 00:10:15,201
You gettin' out to go to court.

213
00:10:15,202 --> 00:10:16,911
I'm licensed now.

214
00:10:16,912 --> 00:10:18,712
Ain't nothin' she can do about it.

215
00:10:20,422 --> 00:10:22,711
The hell this bitch want?

216
00:10:22,712 --> 00:10:25,091
Joey Knox got thrown in the hole.

217
00:10:25,092 --> 00:10:27,052
Looks like Wild Bill wants you
to get into it for him.

218
00:10:27,652 --> 00:10:29,222
Can I get a word?

219
00:10:33,182 --> 00:10:34,601
You hear about Joey?

220
00:10:34,602 --> 00:10:36,391
Yeah, brawlin' with Custody?

221
00:10:36,392 --> 00:10:38,061
I can't say how
that's gonna help anybody.

222
00:10:38,062 --> 00:10:40,601
I'm beginning to wonder
if maybe you ratted him out.

223
00:10:40,602 --> 00:10:43,753
You're smokin'
too much crystal, man.

224
00:10:43,754 --> 00:10:46,021
Oh, yeah? Well, you spend a lot of time

225
00:10:46,022 --> 00:10:47,941
up in that Warden's office
every week, don't you?

226
00:10:47,942 --> 00:10:51,161
I'm the prisoners' rep.
I talk about your rights.

227
00:10:51,162 --> 00:10:54,122
Well, then you got no problem
taking Joey's case, do you?

228
00:10:55,372 --> 00:10:57,121
What?

229
00:10:57,122 --> 00:10:59,961
What, you got a problem
with my tats? Is that it?

230
00:10:59,962 --> 00:11:01,671
I thought a Law Man
wasn't supposed to judge.

231
00:11:01,672 --> 00:11:03,461
Yeah, well, I make certain exceptions.

232
00:11:03,462 --> 00:11:06,107
Well, I want him out.

233
00:11:07,252 --> 00:11:10,591
And I'd hate to hear
that the folks out in this yard

234
00:11:10,592 --> 00:11:12,931
began to question what really goes on

235
00:11:12,932 --> 00:11:16,052
up in that Warden's office
with you and the Madame.

236
00:11:20,432 --> 00:11:22,771
Then there's no choice, is there?

237
00:11:22,772 --> 00:11:26,061
So, next time, don't leave it
till the last minute.

238
00:11:26,062 --> 00:11:29,071
Look, I gotta go, but I'll
be home for dinner, okay?

239
00:11:29,072 --> 00:11:30,941
I love you.

240
00:11:33,202 --> 00:11:34,571
Your son or daughter?

241
00:11:34,572 --> 00:11:36,241
It's always my son.

242
00:11:36,242 --> 00:11:37,951
But I think that's just boys.

243
00:11:37,952 --> 00:11:39,951
Yeah, I wouldn't know.

244
00:11:39,952 --> 00:11:43,171
I heard you were talking to
Wild Bill in the yard today.

245
00:11:43,172 --> 00:11:45,751
I'm guessing he wants you to
rep Joey Knox.

246
00:11:45,752 --> 00:11:47,751
You still trying to eliminate solitary?

247
00:11:47,752 --> 00:11:49,591
You don't think I can pull it off?

248
00:11:49,592 --> 00:11:51,341
Not without a revolt from the guards.

249
00:11:51,342 --> 00:11:53,221
Well, revolt or not, it's my next move.

250
00:11:53,222 --> 00:11:55,511
But I can't do it

251
00:11:55,512 --> 00:11:58,311
if I still have prisoners
sitting in there.

252
00:11:58,312 --> 00:12:01,351
Repping Joey's not gonna
play well in my community.

253
00:12:01,352 --> 00:12:02,941
But I'll think about it.

254
00:12:02,942 --> 00:12:04,415
Fine.

255
00:12:04,982 --> 00:12:06,861
So, what can you tell me
about the drug use?

256
00:12:06,862 --> 00:12:08,521
Down, as far as I can see.

257
00:12:08,522 --> 00:12:10,071
What about the flow?

258
00:12:10,072 --> 00:12:11,571
I told you... you get what I know

259
00:12:11,572 --> 00:12:13,821
about the guards, not the prisoners.

260
00:12:13,822 --> 00:12:15,491
It's the only way
this thing's gonna work,

261
00:12:15,492 --> 00:12:17,071
unless you want me dead.

262
00:12:17,072 --> 00:12:19,331
I was talking about the guards.

263
00:12:19,332 --> 00:12:20,991
Then nothing.

264
00:12:20,992 --> 00:12:22,451
But I'll keep my eyes open.

265
00:12:22,452 --> 00:12:24,185
Your ears, too.

266
00:12:24,752 --> 00:12:26,172
Uh, we're not done.

267
00:12:28,252 --> 00:12:31,211
I, uh... I got a call
from the court today.

268
00:12:31,212 --> 00:12:32,986
You got your retrial with Jose.

269
00:12:35,012 --> 00:12:37,641
That's great. Thank you.

270
00:12:37,642 --> 00:12:39,851
You think you got a chance there?

271
00:12:39,852 --> 00:12:41,601
Yeah, we'll see.

272
00:12:41,602 --> 00:12:43,181
Well, good luck.

273
00:12:43,182 --> 00:12:44,771
And watch your back.

274
00:12:44,772 --> 00:12:47,311
Every minute of every day.

275
00:13:11,514 --> 00:13:13,651
So, you're a high school junior,

276
00:13:14,135 --> 00:13:15,804
you got a B average,

277
00:13:15,805 --> 00:13:17,947
you got your friends,

278
00:13:18,051 --> 00:13:20,950
you're on the soccer team,
you even got yourself a girl.

279
00:13:21,391 --> 00:13:23,061
Tell us about that.

280
00:13:23,086 --> 00:13:26,626
Molly was, like,
from a good family, you know?

281
00:13:26,651 --> 00:13:28,611
Uh, with money.

282
00:13:28,636 --> 00:13:33,106
And me, my dad split,
my moms was workin' three jobs,

283
00:13:33,131 --> 00:13:34,841
and I was eatin'
frozen waffles for dinner.

284
00:13:34,866 --> 00:13:37,576
I bet her parents liked you. Not much.

285
00:13:37,601 --> 00:13:41,061
And they said it was 'cause
I was 17 and she was only 15,

286
00:13:41,086 --> 00:13:42,796
but she was a sophomore.

287
00:13:42,835 --> 00:13:44,124
We was only one grade apart.

288
00:13:44,125 --> 00:13:45,334
So, what did you do?

289
00:13:45,335 --> 00:13:47,044
Snuck around a couple months,

290
00:13:47,045 --> 00:13:49,344
but I knew I had to break it off
before my birthday.

291
00:13:49,345 --> 00:13:51,189
Because in the State of New York,

292
00:13:51,320 --> 00:13:54,900
an 18-year-old and a 15-year-old
is considered statutory rape.

293
00:13:54,925 --> 00:13:57,185
And they'd for sure call the cops.

294
00:13:57,210 --> 00:14:03,090
Did you know that in Virginia,
Texas, Colorado, Arizona,

295
00:14:03,115 --> 00:14:04,869
Florida, and Pennsylvania,

296
00:14:05,008 --> 00:14:07,497
a boy and girl can get married
and have kids at those ages?

297
00:14:07,522 --> 00:14:09,000
Objection.

298
00:14:09,025 --> 00:14:11,024
Look, I get he's still
figuring all this out,

299
00:14:11,025 --> 00:14:13,154
but I'm pretty sure he knows
the laws in other states

300
00:14:13,155 --> 00:14:14,364
are irrelevant here.

301
00:14:14,365 --> 00:14:15,954
Sustained, Mr. Wallace.

302
00:14:15,955 --> 00:14:18,244
And you should know,
in many of those states,

303
00:14:18,245 --> 00:14:19,995
parental consent is required.

304
00:14:23,545 --> 00:14:27,004
So, you broke up. Then what?

305
00:14:27,005 --> 00:14:30,084
She keeps cryin' and beggin'

306
00:14:30,085 --> 00:14:31,634
and sayin' she's gonna hurt herself

307
00:14:31,635 --> 00:14:32,884
if I don't get back to her.

308
00:14:32,885 --> 00:14:34,602
Then one day, she promises

309
00:14:34,603 --> 00:14:36,554
if I just come over one more time,

310
00:14:36,555 --> 00:14:37,884
she'd be all right.

311
00:14:37,885 --> 00:14:39,265
And you went?

312
00:14:39,266 --> 00:14:41,104
She said her parents
were gonna be gone for the day,

313
00:14:41,105 --> 00:14:43,616
so yeah, I went over there.

314
00:14:43,884 --> 00:14:48,454
Then after we were, you know, together...

315
00:14:49,105 --> 00:14:50,706
I fall asleep.

316
00:14:51,485 --> 00:14:53,274
When I wake up, there's a note next to me

317
00:14:53,275 --> 00:14:54,904
- saying she's gonna kill herself.
- Objection!

318
00:14:54,905 --> 00:14:56,694
The police never found this note.

319
00:14:56,695 --> 00:14:58,244
The victim herself swore under oath

320
00:14:58,245 --> 00:14:59,491
that she didn't write it.

321
00:14:59,492 --> 00:15:01,784
- This has been hashed and rehashed.
- Sustained.

322
00:15:01,785 --> 00:15:03,584
I'll allow this line of questioning

323
00:15:03,585 --> 00:15:05,584
if and only if you can produce

324
00:15:05,585 --> 00:15:08,334
any corroborating evidence of this note.

325
00:15:08,335 --> 00:15:10,005
Thank you, Your Honor.

326
00:15:19,631 --> 00:15:21,131
Let's get back to that day.

327
00:15:21,156 --> 00:15:22,776
After you woke up, then what?

328
00:15:24,765 --> 00:15:26,576
I found her in the living room.

329
00:15:27,895 --> 00:15:30,288
Next to an empty bottle of Oxy.

330
00:15:31,315 --> 00:15:32,694
I tried to wake her,

331
00:15:32,695 --> 00:15:34,984
then when I couldn't, I called 911.

332
00:15:34,985 --> 00:15:36,735
And you waited for the ambulance?

333
00:15:40,325 --> 00:15:41,325
No.

334
00:15:41,326 --> 00:15:43,324
Well, why not?

335
00:15:43,325 --> 00:15:45,534
Because I knew her parents
would come after me.

336
00:15:45,535 --> 00:15:47,124
Which is what they did.

337
00:15:47,125 --> 00:15:49,414
Even though Molly survived?

338
00:15:49,415 --> 00:15:51,195
I guess they wanted to punish me.

339
00:15:51,196 --> 00:15:54,174
And the prosecution had text
messages between you and Molly

340
00:15:54,175 --> 00:15:55,714
where you kept promising to buy her Oxy.

341
00:15:55,715 --> 00:15:57,514
Yeah, they did.

342
00:15:57,515 --> 00:15:58,951
Can you explain those?

343
00:15:58,952 --> 00:16:03,184
She kept asking me,
but I just kept stalling.

344
00:16:03,185 --> 00:16:04,554
Hoping she'd give up.

345
00:16:04,555 --> 00:16:06,024
Why didn't you just tell her "no"?

346
00:16:06,025 --> 00:16:07,768
Because I thought she'd just
go to the school dealer

347
00:16:07,769 --> 00:16:09,692
- and buy them herself.
- And were you right?

348
00:16:09,693 --> 00:16:12,104
That's what she ended up doing.

349
00:16:12,105 --> 00:16:15,114
The dealer just lied about it
six years ago, pinned it on me,

350
00:16:15,115 --> 00:16:16,775
and that's how I ended up
doing all this time.

351
00:16:18,541 --> 00:16:20,211
Let the record show

352
00:16:20,236 --> 00:16:22,786
that I intend to call the drug dealer

353
00:16:22,811 --> 00:16:24,481
and the police officer on the scene

354
00:16:24,506 --> 00:16:26,376
who saw that missing suicide note.

355
00:16:28,201 --> 00:16:29,741
No further questions.

356
00:16:32,425 --> 00:16:33,486
Are you saying

357
00:16:33,487 --> 00:16:35,680
the District Attorney's office is racist?

358
00:16:35,681 --> 00:16:37,980
I'll leave that
for other people to decide.

359
00:16:38,005 --> 00:16:39,715
But there's no question
the system's broke

360
00:16:39,740 --> 00:16:41,540
for anybody who doesn't have
power or money.

361
00:16:41,717 --> 00:16:43,797
Overcharging people
who can't afford a lawyer,

362
00:16:43,845 --> 00:16:45,153
then forcing them into a plea

363
00:16:45,154 --> 00:16:46,684
is an epidemic in this country.

364
00:16:46,685 --> 00:16:48,045
And if you look at the numbers,

365
00:16:48,046 --> 00:16:50,709
the Bronx has been one of
the worst under Glen Maskins.

366
00:16:50,710 --> 00:16:53,064
The timing on this
has got to be difficult for Maskins,

367
00:16:53,065 --> 00:16:54,854
who's in a neck-and-neck battle

368
00:16:54,855 --> 00:16:56,904
in the upcoming election
for Attorney General

369
00:16:56,905 --> 00:16:58,984
against Brooklyn D. A. Anya Harrison.

370
00:17:00,365 --> 00:17:03,130
You drop everything else on your plate

371
00:17:03,155 --> 00:17:05,775
and do not even contemplate
losing this case.

372
00:17:09,955 --> 00:17:11,544
You didn't tell me

373
00:17:11,545 --> 00:17:14,684
Aaron Wallace was going
scorched earth on Maskins.

374
00:17:16,634 --> 00:17:18,594
Mm. What do we have here?

375
00:17:18,619 --> 00:17:19,959
Bacon and eggs.

376
00:17:19,984 --> 00:17:21,607
Mmm, yummy.

377
00:17:21,920 --> 00:17:23,710
We talked about him taking some cases.

378
00:17:23,735 --> 00:17:26,325
You didn't say anything about
him grandstanding on the news.

379
00:17:26,350 --> 00:17:28,770
This is gonna hurt Maskins and help you.

380
00:17:28,795 --> 00:17:30,505
Unless he gets backed into a corner,

381
00:17:30,530 --> 00:17:32,110
lashes out,

382
00:17:32,145 --> 00:17:33,954
and starts pointing out
our conflict of interest.

383
00:17:33,955 --> 00:17:36,854
I think you're getting
ahead of yourself. I really do.

384
00:17:36,855 --> 00:17:38,499
I hope so.

385
00:17:47,717 --> 00:17:50,136
You need to study
for that midterm, don't you?

386
00:17:50,745 --> 00:17:52,513
I want to go see Dad.

387
00:17:53,165 --> 00:17:55,124
He has a right to know what's going on.

388
00:17:55,125 --> 00:17:58,078
You know the baggage he has around this.

389
00:17:58,079 --> 00:17:59,328
He's just gonna make you feel
like you screwed up.

390
00:17:59,329 --> 00:18:00,611
You don't need that right now.

391
00:18:00,612 --> 00:18:02,498
You know, you say you're protecting me.

392
00:18:02,499 --> 00:18:04,538
I really feel like
you're protecting yourself.

393
00:18:04,539 --> 00:18:06,999
I think you're scared
he's gonna say you screwed up.

394
00:18:10,839 --> 00:18:12,758
What's going on?

395
00:18:12,759 --> 00:18:15,468
She's pissed I'm keeping her
from seeing Aaron.

396
00:18:15,469 --> 00:18:16,877
Well, your mother has good reasons...

397
00:18:16,878 --> 00:18:18,956
Are you talking to me
about this? Seriously?

398
00:18:18,957 --> 00:18:20,090
Well, I live here

399
00:18:20,115 --> 00:18:21,582
- and I support you, so yeah.
- Darius.

400
00:18:21,583 --> 00:18:23,598
Just because you're banging
your best friend's wife

401
00:18:23,599 --> 00:18:25,271
doesn't mean you get to start
playing daddy with me.

402
00:18:25,272 --> 00:18:26,647
- Hey!
- We're together, Jazz,

403
00:18:26,672 --> 00:18:27,666
and that ain't changing.

404
00:18:27,667 --> 00:18:28,746
You're gonna have to
start to accept that.

405
00:18:28,771 --> 00:18:31,028
How about never?!
How's that work for you?

406
00:18:31,029 --> 00:18:32,595
Jasmine!

407
00:18:58,854 --> 00:19:00,790
I know how hard this has been for you.

408
00:19:03,769 --> 00:19:05,809
But you can't talk to Darius like that.

409
00:19:07,649 --> 00:19:09,048
I know.

410
00:19:09,439 --> 00:19:10,966
I'm sorry.

411
00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:16,779
He's just trying to help however he can.

412
00:19:18,819 --> 00:19:20,829
You think he knows you still love Dad?

413
00:19:25,789 --> 00:19:27,998
I think he understands

414
00:19:27,999 --> 00:19:29,789
there are different kinds of love.

415
00:19:35,629 --> 00:19:38,702
I know you think your dad
is coming back some day,

416
00:19:40,389 --> 00:19:41,997
but he's not.

417
00:19:42,929 --> 00:19:45,292
He's never getting out of there.

418
00:19:46,059 --> 00:19:48,170
The sooner we all accept that,

419
00:19:49,189 --> 00:19:51,478
the easier it'll be to live our lives.

420
00:19:51,479 --> 00:19:53,551
I don't care about what's easy.

421
00:19:54,239 --> 00:19:56,528
And I'm not just gonna give up on him.

422
00:20:01,197 --> 00:20:03,333
Here for Freddy Dawkins.

423
00:20:03,358 --> 00:20:04,483
He's one of my witnesses.

424
00:20:04,484 --> 00:20:06,562
I got to prep him
before we head over to court.

425
00:20:06,563 --> 00:20:09,442
And in the days leading up to
her suicide attempt,

426
00:20:09,443 --> 00:20:11,813
Molly had arranged to meet
with you, and you agreed?

427
00:20:14,483 --> 00:20:15,572
That's right.

428
00:20:15,573 --> 00:20:16,902
And what did she want?

429
00:20:16,903 --> 00:20:18,282
To buy Oxy.

430
00:20:18,283 --> 00:20:20,492
So, six years ago, why did you testify

431
00:20:20,493 --> 00:20:22,371
that Jose was the one who bought 'em?

432
00:20:23,663 --> 00:20:26,452
Come on, man.
We've been over this.

433
00:20:26,453 --> 00:20:28,082
This is the part where you tell the court

434
00:20:28,083 --> 00:20:29,502
that you were scared
'cause Molly's a minor

435
00:20:29,503 --> 00:20:31,382
and that the D. A. Cut you a deal...

436
00:20:31,383 --> 00:20:33,502
If I said, "I sold it to Jose."
I know. I got it, man.

437
00:20:33,503 --> 00:20:36,212
- Then what's the problem?
- I don't know. I just...

438
00:20:36,213 --> 00:20:37,672
I don't know if I want to
get involved in all this.

439
00:20:37,673 --> 00:20:39,803
- You tryin' to shake me down?
- No, man.

440
00:20:40,973 --> 00:20:42,473
No!

441
00:20:46,854 --> 00:20:48,812
What did they promise you?

442
00:20:48,813 --> 00:20:50,562
I hope it's protection,
'cause you're gonna need it

443
00:20:50,563 --> 00:20:52,022
when people find out
you rolled on 'em again.

444
00:20:52,023 --> 00:20:53,982
Hey, man. Are you threatening me?

445
00:20:53,983 --> 00:20:56,072
Not a threat. It's a fact.

446
00:20:56,073 --> 00:20:57,692
And I won't be able to stop it.

447
00:20:57,693 --> 00:20:59,282
- No, this is messed up, man.
- What's messed up is

448
00:20:59,283 --> 00:21:00,992
this kid's been
rotting in here for six years

449
00:21:00,993 --> 00:21:03,412
and he's gonna do 14 more
because you lied.

450
00:21:04,743 --> 00:21:06,792
Freddy, this is your chance
to make things right.

451
00:21:06,793 --> 00:21:09,082
Lockdown in effect!

452
00:21:09,083 --> 00:21:10,752
Back to your cells!

453
00:21:10,753 --> 00:21:12,252
Repeat... we are in lockdown!

454
00:21:12,253 --> 00:21:13,477
- Let's go!
- Let's go.

455
00:21:13,502 --> 00:21:14,542
- Later, man.
- Freddy.

456
00:21:14,543 --> 00:21:15,752
We're locking it up!
Everybody in, let's go!

457
00:21:15,753 --> 00:21:17,262
Freddy!

458
00:21:17,263 --> 00:21:18,802
I gotta know
what it's gonna be here, man.

459
00:21:18,803 --> 00:21:20,512
- Gotta clear it out.
- Freddy!

460
00:21:20,513 --> 00:21:22,182
- Hey, you want to end up in the hole?
- Freddy!

461
00:21:22,183 --> 00:21:23,842
I-I-I'll do it, all right? I'll do it.

462
00:21:23,843 --> 00:21:26,932
Do you hear me? Let's go!

463
00:21:26,933 --> 00:21:28,520
Let's go.

464
00:21:31,523 --> 00:21:33,562
So, first, I'm gonna call
the cop on the scene

465
00:21:33,563 --> 00:21:35,482
who saw Molly's suicide note
on the floor.

466
00:21:35,483 --> 00:21:37,072
After that, we got Freddy.

467
00:21:37,073 --> 00:21:38,482
Hold on. Yo!

468
00:21:38,483 --> 00:21:40,112
Where we goin'?

469
00:21:40,113 --> 00:21:41,702
First stop's supposed to be the Bronx.

470
00:21:41,703 --> 00:21:43,703
What are you, my navigator?

471
00:21:45,493 --> 00:21:47,292
Hey, where they taking you, man?

472
00:21:47,293 --> 00:21:48,541
Queens County.

473
00:21:49,953 --> 00:21:52,378
Yo, you got the wrong route!

474
00:21:53,213 --> 00:21:55,502
Yo, we gotta be in court by 9:00!

475
00:21:55,503 --> 00:21:57,632
This is gonna make us two hours late!

476
00:22:06,933 --> 00:22:08,529
Your Honor, I'm very sorry.

477
00:22:08,530 --> 00:22:10,812
- There was a problem with transport.
- I'll say there was.

478
00:22:10,813 --> 00:22:12,392
The driver says
he had to change his route

479
00:22:12,393 --> 00:22:14,352
because you were riling up the inmates

480
00:22:14,353 --> 00:22:16,272
and he had to get them off
the bus for security reasons.

481
00:22:16,273 --> 00:22:18,866
No, that's just... not true, Your Honor.

482
00:22:18,867 --> 00:22:21,152
Whatever it is, you're not
getting your witness back.

483
00:22:21,153 --> 00:22:22,402
Why not? We can just call him tomorrow.

484
00:22:22,403 --> 00:22:23,742
He's working an undercover case.

485
00:22:23,743 --> 00:22:25,782
This was his only opening.

486
00:22:25,783 --> 00:22:27,216
You got the paperwork on that?

487
00:22:27,217 --> 00:22:30,243
I have word from his Captain,
and that is good enough for me.

488
00:22:38,213 --> 00:22:40,462
Let's just move on to the next witness.

489
00:22:40,463 --> 00:22:42,636
Would that be Freddy Dawkins?

490
00:22:43,473 --> 00:22:45,552
Supposed to be, yeah.

491
00:22:45,553 --> 00:22:46,972
Well, here's the thing...

492
00:22:46,973 --> 00:22:49,262
Um, Mr. Dawkins is now reverting back

493
00:22:49,263 --> 00:22:51,272
to his original testimony
from six years ago.

494
00:22:51,273 --> 00:22:53,105
Here's the affidavit, Your Honor.

495
00:22:53,773 --> 00:22:56,062
- Where'd you get that?
- His lawyer sent it to us.

496
00:22:56,063 --> 00:22:57,896
And he confirms once again

497
00:22:57,897 --> 00:23:00,482
the defendant purchased
the drugs, not the victim.

498
00:23:00,483 --> 00:23:01,782
- You bought him!
- Mr. Wallace.

499
00:23:01,783 --> 00:23:03,192
Bought or coerced, which is it?

500
00:23:03,193 --> 00:23:04,862
- Whoa. Take it easy.
- Mr. Wallace.

501
00:23:04,863 --> 00:23:06,452
You telling me you don't see
what's going on here?!

502
00:23:06,453 --> 00:23:08,662
- He's tampered with my witness!
- Can you prove that?

503
00:23:08,663 --> 00:23:10,952
That's what they do all day, every day...

504
00:23:10,953 --> 00:23:13,372
Move people around like they're
pieces on some chess board!

505
00:23:13,373 --> 00:23:16,372
But that kid... that kid
right there is not some pawn!

506
00:23:16,373 --> 00:23:17,882
He had a life,
and then you took it from him!

507
00:23:17,883 --> 00:23:19,842
Mr. Wallace, you need to settle down.

508
00:23:19,843 --> 00:23:21,842
Settle down? Know my place?

509
00:23:21,843 --> 00:23:24,092
- Is that what you mean?
- Security.

510
00:23:24,093 --> 00:23:26,762
I am warning you, Mr. Wallace.

511
00:23:26,763 --> 00:23:29,762
You are dangerously close
to being in contempt.

512
00:23:29,763 --> 00:23:31,472
I'd imagine your hold on your license

513
00:23:31,473 --> 00:23:33,722
is pretty tenuous as it is.

514
00:23:33,723 --> 00:23:37,812
So, if I were you, I would stop
this tantrum right now.

515
00:24:05,633 --> 00:24:07,552
Open cell 4.

516
00:24:27,903 --> 00:24:29,282
Aah!

517
00:24:56,076 --> 00:24:57,788
But you still also need to protect...

518
00:24:57,789 --> 00:25:00,732
Anya. You are looking lovely as ever.

519
00:25:00,733 --> 00:25:03,282
Still leading with how women look, Glen?

520
00:25:03,283 --> 00:25:05,320
In 2019?

521
00:25:07,345 --> 00:25:09,015
What do you think people are gonna say

522
00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:10,620
when it's pointed out to them

523
00:25:10,645 --> 00:25:13,145
that your wife
is the one allowing Wallace

524
00:25:13,170 --> 00:25:14,720
to head out to court?

525
00:25:20,079 --> 00:25:23,039
So, you decided to go
right at Maskins with the media.

526
00:25:23,064 --> 00:25:25,114
I was approached,
and I saw an opportunity.

527
00:25:25,139 --> 00:25:27,259
Well, now he's threatening to
expose our relationship,

528
00:25:27,284 --> 00:25:28,819
tie it back to my wife,

529
00:25:28,844 --> 00:25:31,530
and make it look like we
weaponized you to go after him.

530
00:25:31,555 --> 00:25:33,385
Anyone can connect those dots.
That was always a risk.

531
00:25:33,410 --> 00:25:35,170
No one would have been looking.

532
00:25:35,195 --> 00:25:38,565
But your tirade to the press
makes it a story now.

533
00:25:38,590 --> 00:25:40,260
You know I thought

534
00:25:40,285 --> 00:25:42,665
that when you decided to
take on these other cases,

535
00:25:42,690 --> 00:25:45,940
you were doing it out of solidarity
with your fellow inmates.

536
00:25:45,965 --> 00:25:47,805
But that's not it, is it?

537
00:25:47,830 --> 00:25:50,290
You're just using them
to provoke Maskins.

538
00:25:50,315 --> 00:25:51,735
And prove a pattern of corruption.

539
00:25:51,760 --> 00:25:53,034
Then prove it!

540
00:25:53,059 --> 00:25:54,613
Instead of spouting off to the press

541
00:25:54,638 --> 00:25:56,221
before you've accomplished anything.

542
00:25:56,246 --> 00:25:59,166
You know, every time I petition
the county clerk for records

543
00:25:59,191 --> 00:26:01,731
or ask for old police reports,
you know what they say?

544
00:26:01,756 --> 00:26:04,438
"No dice. Ongoing investigation."

545
00:26:04,463 --> 00:26:06,173
Nine years later.

546
00:26:06,198 --> 00:26:08,578
So I got no choice but to provoke him,

547
00:26:08,603 --> 00:26:10,928
hoping he gets reckless
and makes a mistake.

548
00:26:10,953 --> 00:26:12,413
So, that's your long game?

549
00:26:12,609 --> 00:26:14,473
I don't see any other way.

550
00:26:14,498 --> 00:26:16,418
How about win your cases?

551
00:26:16,443 --> 00:26:18,363
Get yourself some credibility.

552
00:26:21,076 --> 00:26:23,326
I'll stay away from the press.

553
00:26:23,646 --> 00:26:26,109
But you let me worry
about my credibility.

554
00:26:34,802 --> 00:26:37,746
Gotta be out for chow time, 20 minutes.

555
00:26:38,793 --> 00:26:41,213
Hey.

556
00:26:41,238 --> 00:26:43,198
It's over, man.

557
00:26:43,223 --> 00:26:44,603
Is that what you're comin' to tell me?

558
00:26:47,503 --> 00:26:48,857
Where'd you get this?

559
00:26:48,882 --> 00:26:50,425
Six years.

560
00:26:51,122 --> 00:26:54,122
Six years in this hell, I stayed off it.

561
00:26:55,552 --> 00:26:57,641
You made me believe, man.

562
00:26:58,623 --> 00:27:00,102
I believed.

563
00:27:02,386 --> 00:27:04,436
Get up.

564
00:27:04,669 --> 00:27:05,829
Hey.

565
00:27:14,302 --> 00:27:15,882
You never showed me this.

566
00:27:15,907 --> 00:27:17,244
Where'd it come from?

567
00:27:18,836 --> 00:27:23,386
She wrote me... after I got in here.

568
00:27:27,456 --> 00:27:30,166
You once told me
that you remember every word

569
00:27:30,191 --> 00:27:32,571
that Molly wrote you
in that suicide note.

570
00:27:32,873 --> 00:27:33,802
Yeah.

571
00:27:34,935 --> 00:27:36,015
So what?

572
00:27:49,369 --> 00:27:51,919
- Hello?
- Hey, how you doin'?

573
00:27:51,944 --> 00:27:54,698
I'm okay. Just on my way to work.

574
00:27:55,205 --> 00:27:57,505
Listen, I'm sorry
about what happened last week.

575
00:27:57,530 --> 00:27:59,200
Yeah, me too.

576
00:27:59,583 --> 00:28:02,039
I was hoping maybe you could do
something for me.

577
00:28:02,323 --> 00:28:04,243
You're the only one I can trust.

578
00:28:08,269 --> 00:28:09,639
I'm listening.

579
00:28:36,203 --> 00:28:39,242
Yo. Joey Knox still in the hole?

580
00:28:39,243 --> 00:28:41,219
Well, they ain't letting him out
for Sunday brunch.

581
00:28:41,244 --> 00:28:43,824
Aaron'll take his case.

582
00:28:43,849 --> 00:28:46,309
But he's gonna need something from you.

583
00:28:56,039 --> 00:28:57,329
- Where'd you get it?
- Thrift store.

584
00:28:57,354 --> 00:28:58,814
Guy said it was over 10 years old.

585
00:28:58,839 --> 00:29:00,299
Great. I'll be right back.

586
00:29:00,324 --> 00:29:01,664
Whoa, whoa, Aaron. What is this about?

587
00:29:01,689 --> 00:29:03,359
I told you, it's best you don't know.

588
00:29:03,384 --> 00:29:05,174
I gotta go. Wait right here.

589
00:29:21,389 --> 00:29:22,802
- Coming down now.
- Almost.

590
00:29:28,146 --> 00:29:29,986
30 seconds.

591
00:29:41,071 --> 00:29:42,593
This'll wipe 'em all out?

592
00:29:42,618 --> 00:29:46,338
Partials, man. You want partials.

593
00:29:51,192 --> 00:29:52,862
The oven at 450?

594
00:29:52,887 --> 00:29:55,097
Yeah, but we gotta get out of here.

595
00:29:55,122 --> 00:29:56,832
All right, three minutes.

596
00:29:59,739 --> 00:30:02,284
Once again, visiting time is over.

597
00:30:02,309 --> 00:30:04,559
Take all your belongings
and move towards the exit.

598
00:30:07,689 --> 00:30:09,819
Let's go, ma'am, time's up.

599
00:30:29,019 --> 00:30:30,979
Where you going, Wallace? It's over.

600
00:30:31,004 --> 00:30:32,982
- I need to get something...
- Nah, gotta wait till next week.

601
00:30:33,007 --> 00:30:34,374
- Let's go.
- All right.

602
00:30:38,793 --> 00:30:41,303
Hey! I told you.
It's a letter for my daughter.

603
00:30:41,328 --> 00:30:43,248
- Back to your cell.
- I'm going, I'm going.

604
00:30:43,273 --> 00:30:45,603
- Now!
- All right! All right.

605
00:30:51,182 --> 00:30:53,941
Clearly, that letter was sent to
me by one of the cops on the scene

606
00:30:53,942 --> 00:30:55,811
from Molly Davison's overdose.

607
00:30:55,812 --> 00:30:57,993
- And he enclosed this in the envelope?
- That's right.

608
00:30:57,994 --> 00:31:00,784
We've had that note analyzed
by a handwriting expert

609
00:31:00,785 --> 00:31:02,321
who certified that the note is forged.

610
00:31:02,322 --> 00:31:04,554
And I got an expert of my own
who says with 100% certainty

611
00:31:04,555 --> 00:31:05,951
that she wrote that letter.

612
00:31:05,952 --> 00:31:08,327
The idea that a cop kept that
note after all this time is ridi...

613
00:31:08,328 --> 00:31:10,135
Guilty conscience runs
on its own calendar.

614
00:31:10,160 --> 00:31:11,499
Maybe you'd know that if you had one.

615
00:31:11,500 --> 00:31:13,209
So, we're going there now?

616
00:31:13,210 --> 00:31:14,532
You can see from the postmark

617
00:31:14,533 --> 00:31:16,691
that was sent
a half a mile from the precinct.

618
00:31:17,246 --> 00:31:20,362
Did you run a fingerprint
analysis on this?

619
00:31:21,655 --> 00:31:23,129
We did, Your Honor.

620
00:31:23,130 --> 00:31:25,759
We found multiple partials,
but nothing identifiable.

621
00:31:25,760 --> 00:31:27,389
So, we're at an impasse.

622
00:31:27,390 --> 00:31:28,799
Not if we subpoena Molly Davison.

623
00:31:28,800 --> 00:31:30,224
She's already said she won't testify.

624
00:31:30,225 --> 00:31:31,168
But we now got evidence

625
00:31:31,193 --> 00:31:32,679
that she needs to corroborate
one way or the other.

626
00:31:32,680 --> 00:31:34,809
She can corroborate without
being called to the stand.

627
00:31:34,810 --> 00:31:36,540
That's true, but if she did
write that letter,

628
00:31:36,541 --> 00:31:38,227
that means she lied six years ago.

629
00:31:38,228 --> 00:31:40,019
Defense should have an opportunity

630
00:31:40,020 --> 00:31:41,328
to confront her on the stand.

631
00:31:41,329 --> 00:31:43,780
And I'd appreciate
if she wasn't tampered with.

632
00:31:47,643 --> 00:31:49,603
I, Molly Davison,
promise to tell the truth,

633
00:31:49,628 --> 00:31:51,128
the whole truth,
and nothing but the truth,

634
00:31:51,153 --> 00:31:52,403
so help me God.

635
00:31:52,428 --> 00:31:54,348
Please be seated.

636
00:32:00,280 --> 00:32:01,410
Morning, Ms. Davison.

637
00:32:01,435 --> 00:32:02,975
Good morning.

638
00:32:03,000 --> 00:32:04,710
Now, if you don't mind,

639
00:32:04,735 --> 00:32:07,615
I'd like to cut right to the chase here.

640
00:32:07,640 --> 00:32:10,955
Could you tell us about your
relationship with Jose Rodriguez?

641
00:32:11,010 --> 00:32:13,099
He was my boyfriend in high school.

642
00:32:13,100 --> 00:32:14,471
- And did you love him?
- Objection.

643
00:32:14,472 --> 00:32:15,939
The witness has been called
to corroborate

644
00:32:15,940 --> 00:32:17,559
a specific piece of evidence.

645
00:32:17,560 --> 00:32:19,554
The evidence is tied to her
feelings for the defendant.

646
00:32:19,555 --> 00:32:21,519
I'm trying to establish
context here, Your Honor.

647
00:32:21,520 --> 00:32:23,069
I'll allow it.

648
00:32:23,070 --> 00:32:24,217
Thank you.

649
00:32:30,740 --> 00:32:31,808
Mr. Wallace?

650
00:32:34,580 --> 00:32:35,937
Mr. Wallace.

651
00:32:37,670 --> 00:32:38,870
Did you love him?

652
00:32:39,232 --> 00:32:40,579
Yes.

653
00:32:40,580 --> 00:32:42,360
And do you think he loved you?

654
00:32:43,903 --> 00:32:45,209
Yes.

655
00:32:45,210 --> 00:32:47,679
Then why did your relationship end?

656
00:32:47,680 --> 00:32:49,576
Jose broke up with me.

657
00:32:50,050 --> 00:32:51,680
And why would he do that?

658
00:32:54,567 --> 00:32:56,527
Are you looking to somebody for answers?

659
00:32:59,446 --> 00:33:01,826
He was afraid of what my parents might do

660
00:33:01,851 --> 00:33:03,465
if we stayed together.

661
00:33:03,643 --> 00:33:06,273
And how did he wind up at your house

662
00:33:06,530 --> 00:33:08,320
on the day you overdosed?

663
00:33:11,607 --> 00:33:14,657
I have records of text messages

664
00:33:14,682 --> 00:33:18,188
between you and him from that day.

665
00:33:19,306 --> 00:33:21,266
Would you mind reading
the one I highlighted?

666
00:33:26,760 --> 00:33:28,299
"Just come over one last time.

667
00:33:28,300 --> 00:33:30,969
I swear I'll be okay after
that and I'll leave you alone."

668
00:33:30,970 --> 00:33:32,164
But that wasn't true, was it?

669
00:33:32,165 --> 00:33:33,761
Objection! Leading the witness.

670
00:33:33,762 --> 00:33:36,019
'Cause you already had a plan
for what you were going to do.

671
00:33:36,020 --> 00:33:37,349
Objection! He's badgering!

672
00:33:37,350 --> 00:33:39,020
Careful, Mr. Wallace.

673
00:33:59,500 --> 00:34:01,669
Would you mind reading that, please?

674
00:34:09,420 --> 00:34:11,219
Ms. Davison?

675
00:34:17,930 --> 00:34:21,019
"Dear Jose,
you are my light,

676
00:34:21,020 --> 00:34:24,479
you are my heart, you are my everything."

677
00:34:27,230 --> 00:34:30,399
"I hate my parents
and I ha... hate my life,

678
00:34:30,400 --> 00:34:33,805
and if I can't be with you,
then I don't want to live.

679
00:34:34,370 --> 00:34:36,307
I'm so sorry.

680
00:34:38,453 --> 00:34:40,493
I'll love you forever. Molly."

681
00:34:40,886 --> 00:34:43,266
Do you recognize those words?

682
00:34:46,226 --> 00:34:50,146
Are those the words you wrote to
Jose the day you overdosed?

683
00:34:52,880 --> 00:34:55,243
This isn't the note.

684
00:34:57,453 --> 00:34:59,493
But... But, yeah, these are the words.

685
00:34:59,518 --> 00:35:01,058
Objection, Your Honor.

686
00:35:01,083 --> 00:35:03,463
She's only here to establish the veracity

687
00:35:03,488 --> 00:35:05,545
of this particular piece of evidence.

688
00:35:06,919 --> 00:35:08,669
Overruled.

689
00:35:08,694 --> 00:35:10,404
Continue.

690
00:35:16,094 --> 00:35:17,682
If those are the words,

691
00:35:19,259 --> 00:35:20,969
where's the original version
of that note?

692
00:35:27,279 --> 00:35:30,486
My parents destroyed it
the day I went to the hospital.

693
00:35:32,276 --> 00:35:34,115
And why would they do that, Molly?

694
00:35:34,149 --> 00:35:36,489
Because they didn't want anyone
reading what I wrote.

695
00:35:36,542 --> 00:35:39,962
They didn't want me to get
arrested for buying drugs.

696
00:35:39,987 --> 00:35:41,777
But you testified six years ago

697
00:35:41,802 --> 00:35:44,762
that Jose was the one who bought the Oxy.

698
00:35:53,112 --> 00:35:54,402
I lied.

699
00:36:00,057 --> 00:36:03,897
Jose never wanted to get them
for me, and he never did.

700
00:36:03,922 --> 00:36:06,212
He didn't even know that I-I had them.

701
00:36:06,237 --> 00:36:07,815
He would've taken them away.

702
00:36:10,510 --> 00:36:12,779
They made me lie about everything.

703
00:36:13,630 --> 00:36:15,629
I am so sorry, Jose.

704
00:36:17,760 --> 00:36:19,969
I'm so sorry.

705
00:36:24,850 --> 00:36:26,059
No further questions.

706
00:36:46,710 --> 00:36:48,619
I didn't think you could do it.

707
00:36:48,620 --> 00:36:49,829
I know.

708
00:36:56,420 --> 00:36:57,629
Can't ever thank you enough.

709
00:36:57,630 --> 00:36:59,800
You go live your life, man.

710
00:37:02,260 --> 00:37:04,099
Oh!

711
00:37:07,890 --> 00:37:09,729
Time to get changed.

712
00:38:11,750 --> 00:38:14,959
I heard about Jose. Congratulations.

713
00:38:16,050 --> 00:38:17,445
Really.

714
00:38:17,673 --> 00:38:19,343
Got a lot of guys coming to me now.

715
00:38:19,368 --> 00:38:21,118
I'm sure.

716
00:38:21,143 --> 00:38:22,983
But I'm gonna need you
to let things cool down

717
00:38:23,008 --> 00:38:24,798
till after the election.

718
00:38:24,823 --> 00:38:26,743
That was the deal we made with Maskins.

719
00:38:26,768 --> 00:38:28,228
Put me back in my cage.

720
00:38:28,253 --> 00:38:29,963
It's only four months.

721
00:38:29,988 --> 00:38:31,260
That's easy for you to say.

722
00:38:31,285 --> 00:38:33,002
You get to go home
to your family every night.

723
00:38:33,363 --> 00:38:35,243
I want you to think about this.

724
00:38:37,773 --> 00:38:40,259
If you go after him and it backfires,

725
00:38:40,846 --> 00:38:43,636
he wins the election,
becomes Attorney General.

726
00:38:43,661 --> 00:38:46,621
Not only will he help kill
all the reforms

727
00:38:46,646 --> 00:38:48,356
that have been making
everyone's lives here better,

728
00:38:48,381 --> 00:38:50,051
but he will take away your license

729
00:38:50,076 --> 00:38:52,036
with one stroke of his pen

730
00:38:52,061 --> 00:38:55,691
and crush any chance you have of
getting your own case to court.

731
00:38:57,196 --> 00:38:59,996
So, if you're really playing
the long game,

732
00:39:00,021 --> 00:39:02,981
going after him is not
the smart move right now.

733
00:39:10,299 --> 00:39:12,089
Thank you for trusting me.

734
00:39:25,410 --> 00:39:28,079
There's my girl. Hey, sweetheart.

735
00:39:28,080 --> 00:39:30,209
Hey, Dad.

736
00:39:30,210 --> 00:39:31,449
Hey.

737
00:39:31,450 --> 00:39:33,620
I'm so glad you're here.

738
00:39:36,960 --> 00:39:38,670
Jasmine has something to tell you.

739
00:39:41,800 --> 00:39:44,760
What is it, sweetheart?

740
00:39:48,816 --> 00:39:52,866
The reason I haven't been
coming here is...

741
00:39:52,959 --> 00:39:56,081
Hey, whatever it is,
I can handle it, all right?

742
00:39:56,106 --> 00:39:57,837
We can handle it together.

743
00:40:02,016 --> 00:40:03,976
Come on. What's going on?

744
00:40:18,580 --> 00:40:21,129
Please don't be mad.

745
00:40:26,680 --> 00:40:29,368
I'm not mad, my angel.

746
00:40:29,646 --> 00:40:31,356
I'm not mad.

747
00:40:35,270 --> 00:40:37,376
Well, how far along?

748
00:40:38,823 --> 00:40:40,360
17 weeks.

749
00:40:42,253 --> 00:40:43,925
And it's Ronnie's?

750
00:40:44,690 --> 00:40:48,109
We're still together,
and he's taking responsibility.

751
00:40:52,530 --> 00:40:54,659
I want you to know I'm having a boy.

752
00:40:58,540 --> 00:41:00,499
I was gonna name him Aaron.

753
00:41:10,180 --> 00:41:12,286
It's gonna be a blessing, Dad.

754
00:41:15,780 --> 00:41:17,740
But you have to get out of here
to be a part of it.

755
00:41:21,111 --> 00:41:22,838
I'm gonna need you,

756
00:41:23,146 --> 00:41:25,476
and your grandson is gonna need you, too.

757
00:41:32,876 --> 00:41:35,336
I used to be just like you.

758
00:41:35,361 --> 00:41:38,901
I had a family and a career.

759
00:41:40,701 --> 00:41:42,911
I had friends.

760
00:41:42,936 --> 00:41:45,066
I even thought I had time.

761
00:41:45,091 --> 00:41:47,301
And then I got here...

762
00:41:47,326 --> 00:41:49,996
The place where time stands still.

763
00:41:50,021 --> 00:41:51,492
You get through it.

764
00:41:51,597 --> 00:41:54,017
You tell yourself
you'll catch up someday.

765
00:41:54,069 --> 00:41:57,456
But then something happens
when you least expect it

766
00:41:58,089 --> 00:42:01,294
to remind you the world's gonna
keep spinning without you.

767
00:42:02,143 --> 00:42:04,773
The Warden thinks I can afford to wait.

768
00:42:04,798 --> 00:42:07,925
But she can never understand
what it's like for me...

769
00:42:08,797 --> 00:42:11,053
for the others in here who don't belong.

770
00:42:12,520 --> 00:42:15,310
So now there'll be no more long game.

771
00:42:15,335 --> 00:42:17,885
No more biding my time.

772
00:42:17,910 --> 00:42:19,979
Not one more moment.

773
00:42:22,019 --> 00:42:26,527
Whatever it takes,
whoever I have to fight,

774
00:42:27,306 --> 00:42:29,697
no matter how hard they come at me,

775
00:42:31,369 --> 00:42:33,284
no matter what power they have,

776
00:42:35,113 --> 00:42:37,204
I will get myself home,

777
00:42:37,837 --> 00:42:39,757
and I will have my life again.

778
00:42:39,773 --> 00:42:42,960
