Number one, it wasn't murder.
lt was suicide or accidental.

267

Number two, you didn't do it.
Number three, you were legally justified...

like the protection of your home
or self-defense.

269

the shooting might have been justified...

and you didn't do that either.

premeditated and with vengeance.

00:25:17,099 --> 00:25:21,060
We sort of moved around.
My father was a boomer - construction boomer.

334
00:25:21,145 --> 00:25:23,104
Building dams, mostly.

335
00:25:23,189 --> 00:25:24,898
You can call me Laura.

336
00:25:26,525 --> 00:25:29,777
- ls your family still alive, Laura?
- No.

337
00:25:29,862 --> 00:25:31,821
l don't know.
l have some cigarettes around here someplace.

338
00:25:31,906 --> 00:25:34,282
- Do you want a cigarette?
- No, l wanted to offer you one.

339
00:25:34,366 --> 00:25:37,285
- You could light it for me.
- Oh, yes.

340
00:25:39,371 --> 00:25:40,872
Ηere.

341
00:25:41,874 --> 00:25:44,083
- That's just like your husband's, isn't it?
- Mm-hmm.

342
00:25:46,712 --> 00:25:49,130
Ηe gave me this because l liked the one he had.

343
00:25:49,215 --> 00:25:51,382
He's like that.
Ηe gives me presents all the time.

344
00:25:51,467 --> 00:25:53,343
Do you have a happy marriage?

345
00:25:54,470 --> 00:25:55,845
Yes.

346
00:25:56,388 --> 00:25:58,806
What went wrong with the first marriage?

347
00:25:58,891 --> 00:26:02,060
Well, what went wrong is when l went for Manny.

348
00:26:02,144 --> 00:26:04,103
Well, that's honest enough.

349
00:26:04,188 --> 00:26:07,440
lt was more than just that.
Like l told you, l grew up on the move...

350
00:26:07,524 --> 00:26:10,193
and Jack - that was my first husband -

351
00:26:10,277 --> 00:26:14,072
Jack didn't like to move. He wouldn't even
take a transfer when he had the chance.

352
00:26:14,156 --> 00:26:16,115
l was really bored.

353
00:26:16,200 --> 00:26:20,036
Manny likes to go.
We're always going, whenever we get the chance.

354
00:26:20,120 --> 00:26:22,830
We've been all over. l'm thirsty.

355
00:26:22,915 --> 00:26:25,083
Water? Or would a beer do?

356
00:26:25,167 --> 00:26:27,085
l think a beer would do fine.

357
00:26:27,920 --> 00:26:30,338
Maida, bring me a bottle of beer,
will you?

358
00:26:32,174 --> 00:26:34,759
- Are you married?
- No.

359
00:26:35,803 --> 00:26:37,303
That's nice.

360
00:26:38,097 --> 00:26:40,807
What do you do alone
in this house if you aren't married?

361
00:26:40,891 --> 00:26:43,893
Well, it's a family home.
l'm the last of the family.

362
00:26:43,978 --> 00:26:45,937
- There you are.
- Thank you.

363
00:26:47,273 --> 00:26:50,358
- Aren't you having one?
- No, not right now. Thanks.

364
00:26:51,443 --> 00:26:53,361
- There you are.
- [ Muff Whines ]

365
00:26:53,445 --> 00:26:56,489
Oh, could Muff have a little?
ln that ashtray, maybe. He loves beer.

366
00:26:56,573 --> 00:26:59,033
- You want a beer for the dog?
- Mm-hmm.

367
00:26:59,118 --> 00:27:01,536
Well, here we are.

368
00:27:06,792 --> 00:27:08,751
[ Laura ]
Ηe'll go to sleep now.

369
00:27:11,755 --> 00:27:14,424
- lsn't he cute?
- Yeah.

370
00:27:14,508 --> 00:27:16,843
Well, how about it? Are you ready?

371
00:27:18,554 --> 00:27:21,347
l mean, are you ready to tell me the story?

372
00:27:21,432 --> 00:27:23,516
l know what you mean.

373
00:27:23,600 --> 00:27:28,229
Yeah. Well, now, suppose you tell me
everything you told the state police...

374
00:27:28,314 --> 00:27:31,733
plus everything you didn't
tell the state police.

375
00:27:32,818 --> 00:27:36,904
- Where shall l begin?
- What time did you leave for Quill's bar?

376
00:27:36,989 --> 00:27:40,325
Right after dinner. About 8:30, l guess.

377
00:27:40,409 --> 00:27:42,744
Manny was late getting home
from the firing range...

378
00:27:42,828 --> 00:27:45,705
so we had dinner
and he laid down and went to sleep.

379
00:27:45,789 --> 00:27:47,874
l hadn't been out of
the trailer almost all day...

380
00:27:47,958 --> 00:27:51,210
so l took Muff and a flashlight
and walked over to the bar.

381
00:27:51,795 --> 00:27:53,963
l bought a drink
and played the pinball machine.

382
00:27:54,048 --> 00:27:55,548
Many people in the bar?

383
00:27:55,632 --> 00:28:00,553
Not many. Barney came over
and challenged me to a game.

384
00:28:00,637 --> 00:28:03,806
- For drinks, you know.
- How well did you know Barney?

385
00:28:03,891 --> 00:28:07,435
Well, he owned this bar
where Manny and l went sometimes. That's all.

386
00:28:07,519 --> 00:28:12,023
- Had he ever made a pass at you?
- No. Nothing like that at all.

387
00:28:12,107 --> 00:28:14,650
Was he drinking heavily that night?

388
00:28:15,361 --> 00:28:18,863
He didn't seem to be.
At least not when we were playing pinball.

389
00:28:18,947 --> 00:28:21,574
Were you with him
the whole time you were there?

390
00:28:21,658 --> 00:28:23,743
Oh, no. There were other people playing too.

391
00:28:23,827 --> 00:28:26,287
What time did you leave the bar?

392
00:28:26,372 --> 00:28:29,540
Oh, about 1 1 :00, l guess.

393
00:28:29,625 --> 00:28:32,960
l left by the side door.
Muff was carrying the flashlight.

394
00:28:33,045 --> 00:28:34,921
Ηe carries it in his mouth.

395
00:28:35,005 --> 00:28:37,006
Ηe's so cute running along ahead
with the light shining.

396
00:28:37,091 --> 00:28:39,801
- Was he sober?
- Muff? Of course he was sober.

397
00:28:39,885 --> 00:28:41,803
Oh, you're joking now, aren't you?

398
00:28:41,887 --> 00:28:45,223
Yes, l'm joking. Uh, go on.

399
00:28:45,307 --> 00:28:49,477
Well, Barney came from somewhere.
Not the door l left by.

400
00:28:49,561 --> 00:28:52,980
And he said he was going my way
and he could drive me home.

401
00:28:53,065 --> 00:28:56,692
Ηe said the bears had been prowling around
that night, and l oughtn't to walk home.

402
00:28:56,777 --> 00:28:58,986
The bears come out of the woods
at night to scavenge.

403
00:28:59,071 --> 00:29:01,114
Yeah, but they're harmless enough,
aren't they?

404
00:29:01,198 --> 00:29:03,950
Yeah. l suppose l wouldn't have
been afraid in the daylight...

405
00:29:04,034 --> 00:29:06,119
but, well, the dark isn't the same, you know.

406
00:29:06,203 --> 00:29:09,372
Yes, l know. l know.
Now, you got into Barney's car.

407
00:29:09,456 --> 00:29:11,707
l got in and he drove
straight to the trailer park.

408
00:29:11,792 --> 00:29:13,709
Ηe made overtures?

409
00:29:13,794 --> 00:29:16,087
No, nothing.
When we got to the trailer park...

410
00:29:16,171 --> 00:29:18,089
the auto gate was closed.

411
00:29:18,173 --> 00:29:21,843
Mr. Lemon closes it
about 1 1 :00 or a little after.

412
00:29:21,927 --> 00:29:24,512
So l thanked Barney
and started to get out of the car...

413
00:29:24,596 --> 00:29:27,390
but he said that there wasn't
any need for me to walk...

414
00:29:27,474 --> 00:29:30,268
that he could drive me
into the park on another road.

415
00:29:30,352 --> 00:29:35,523
l didn't know there was another road,
but he drove on before l could say yes or no.

416
00:29:35,607 --> 00:29:38,025
- Were you alarmed?
- No.

417
00:29:38,110 --> 00:29:40,194
l'm not usually afraid of men.

418
00:29:40,279 --> 00:29:43,823
And anyway, he hadn't touched me
or even said anything out of the way.

419
00:29:43,907 --> 00:29:49,328
Well, doesn't a woman sort of instinctively
know when a fellow's on the make?

420
00:29:49,413 --> 00:29:52,540
Oh, sure. But that's only usual with me.

421
00:29:52,624 --> 00:29:55,668
With men, l mean - almost all men.
Ever since l was a kid.

422
00:29:56,170 --> 00:29:58,629
You, for instance. You're interested.

423
00:29:58,714 --> 00:30:02,633
But there isn't any reason to be afraid of you.
lt was like that with Barney.

424
00:30:02,718 --> 00:30:04,886
Well, now, Mrs. Manion,
believe me, l'm not in the least -

425
00:30:04,970 --> 00:30:07,221
Call me Laura.

426
00:30:07,306 --> 00:30:09,223
Uh, Laura.

427
00:30:09,308 --> 00:30:13,561
l'm only interested in helping your husband.
Nothing more.

428
00:30:13,645 --> 00:30:16,230
Oh, l don't mean you'd try anything.

429
00:30:16,315 --> 00:30:20,026
l just mean it's - it's the way you look at me.

430
00:30:21,778 --> 00:30:24,030
Well, it'd be very difficult
not to look at you.

431
00:30:24,114 --> 00:30:26,908
Oh, the way l dress, you mean?
You don't like it?

432
00:30:26,992 --> 00:30:30,036
Oh, l love it. l just love it.

433
00:30:30,120 --> 00:30:34,081
Now, we-we'd better keep
moving along with this thing.

434
00:30:34,166 --> 00:30:38,044
Now, uh, how were you dressed that night?

435
00:30:38,128 --> 00:30:40,880
Oh, in a sweater like this and a skirt.

436
00:30:40,964 --> 00:30:43,341
And the rest. What about that?

437
00:30:43,425 --> 00:30:44,926
Underneath?

438
00:30:45,010 --> 00:30:48,095
l had on a slip and panties and a bra.

439
00:30:48,180 --> 00:30:50,765
- No girdle?
- l don't need a girdle.

440
00:30:50,849 --> 00:30:52,600
Do you think l need a girdle?

441
00:30:52,684 --> 00:30:54,936
l don't know.

442
00:30:55,020 --> 00:30:57,104
l don't know. Ηow sh - l -

443
00:30:57,189 --> 00:30:59,899
Look, l'm only concerned with a few facts...

444
00:30:59,983 --> 00:31:02,610
that might be of help to me
in the defense of your husband.

445
00:31:02,694 --> 00:31:05,363
- That's all.
- Well, l don't wear one.

446
00:31:05,447 --> 00:31:09,367
Okay. No girdle. Okay.
All right. Now go on.

447
00:31:09,451 --> 00:31:13,162
Well, he turned off the highway
into a lane in the woods...

448
00:31:13,247 --> 00:31:16,082
and he stopped the car
and turned off the lights.

449
00:31:16,166 --> 00:31:18,251
And then he grabbed me, and he said...

450
00:31:18,335 --> 00:31:20,670
"l'm gonna rape you,"
just like that.

451
00:31:20,754 --> 00:31:23,923
- Did he use those words?
- Exactly those words.

452
00:31:24,007 --> 00:31:26,509
Muff began to bark,
so he threw him out the window.

453
00:31:26,593 --> 00:31:30,346
l could hear little Muffy
whining outside the car all through it.

454
00:31:30,430 --> 00:31:33,641
Barney began to try to get at me...

455
00:31:33,725 --> 00:31:36,811
and l fought him off as best l could,
but he was terribly strong.

456
00:31:36,895 --> 00:31:39,230
Did you cry out? Did you scream?

457
00:31:39,314 --> 00:31:42,149
lt didn't seem to be much use
out there in the woods.

458
00:31:42,234 --> 00:31:47,154
Ηe began to shout names at me
like "army slut" and some other names.

459
00:31:47,239 --> 00:31:49,824
And then he drew back and hit me with his fist.

460
00:31:49,908 --> 00:31:52,785
Ηe hit me again, and l didn't fight anymore.

461
00:31:52,869 --> 00:31:58,249
l must've been only half conscious,
but l know that he tore my panties off...

462
00:31:58,333 --> 00:32:00,251
and did what he wanted.

463
00:32:00,919 --> 00:32:03,379
Now, the newspapers said
that a doctor examined you...

464
00:32:03,463 --> 00:32:05,506
and said that he didn't think you'd been raped.

465
00:32:05,591 --> 00:32:09,343
l don't care what the doctor thought.
A woman doesn't mistake these things.

466
00:32:09,428 --> 00:32:12,471
All right. All right. Now go ahead.

467
00:32:12,556 --> 00:32:14,140
Well, l -

468
00:32:15,851 --> 00:32:18,144
l don't know exactly what happened then.
l must've fainted.

469
00:32:18,228 --> 00:32:21,355
But the next thing l remember,
the car was moving.

470
00:32:21,440 --> 00:32:25,610
Barney was driving very fast,
and - and he was breathing hard.

471
00:32:25,694 --> 00:32:29,030
An ugly, gasping sound.

472
00:32:30,240 --> 00:32:32,742
We were on the main road to the trailer park...

473
00:32:32,826 --> 00:32:35,578
and he swung in by the gate and stopped.

474
00:32:35,662 --> 00:32:39,874
l opened the door to get out. Muffy jumped out
first, with a lighted flashlight in his mouth.

475
00:32:39,958 --> 00:32:42,043
Well, now, wait a minute.
l thought you said...

476
00:32:42,127 --> 00:32:44,545
he'd thrown Muff out of the car
back in the woods.

477
00:32:44,630 --> 00:32:47,256
Well, he did, but Muff was
in the car when we got back.

478
00:32:47,341 --> 00:32:49,216
Ηe must've let him back in. l don't remember.

479
00:32:49,301 --> 00:32:52,845
All right. All right. Now, you opened the door,
and Muff got out first. All right.

480
00:32:52,929 --> 00:32:55,556
Before l could get out, Barney grabbed me...

481
00:32:55,641 --> 00:32:58,893
and said he was gonna
tear all my clothes off and attack me again.

482
00:32:58,977 --> 00:33:02,396
l got away and ran.
l could see Muff at an opening in the fence.

483
00:33:02,481 --> 00:33:05,900
Ηe was scooting back and forth
with the flashlight.

484
00:33:05,984 --> 00:33:09,945
Barney caught me from behind,
and l fell to the ground.

485
00:33:10,030 --> 00:33:12,865
Ηe fell on top of me and began
to beat me again with his fists.

486
00:33:12,949 --> 00:33:14,867
l thought he was gonna kill me.

487
00:33:14,951 --> 00:33:19,580
l screamed, and somehow or other
l got to my feet again and ran.

488
00:33:19,665 --> 00:33:22,249
l went through the opening
in the fence and followed Muffy.

489
00:33:22,334 --> 00:33:24,543
Ηe was running along ahead with the flashlight.

490
00:33:24,628 --> 00:33:27,588
And l kept following the light
until he led me to our trailer.

491
00:33:27,673 --> 00:33:29,882
And you didn't see Barney again?

492
00:33:29,966 --> 00:33:32,718
Never laid eyes on him again, dead or alive.

493
00:33:33,804 --> 00:33:35,721

- Yeah. So would l.

down to manslaughter...

back and forth with the flashlight.

some good practice being lonely.

You mean you think
maybe Manny won't get off?

828

and you can never tell about them.

There's no need, l think,

One judge is quite like another.

The only differences may be in the state

The defendant is in Detroit being examined
by a psychiatrist, Your Honor.

887
01:01:06,913 --> 01:01:08,873
Shouldn't the court have been consulted...

was allowed to leave its jurisdiction?

Well, Your Honor, we're dealing
with the army in this matter...

would give us at one of their psychiatrists.

of the information and stand mute.

977
01:07:34,551 --> 01:07:37,261
Thank you, Mrs. Manion.
You may be seated.

978
01:07:38,304 --> 01:07:40,639
Counsel may challenge the jury for cause.

979
01:07:40,724 --> 01:07:46,270
Your Honor, before counsel's challenge,
may l introduce Mr. Claude Dancer to the court?

980
01:07:46,354 --> 01:07:49,440
Mr. Dancer is an assistant attorney general
from Lansing.

981
01:07:49,524 --> 01:07:53,694
Because of the peculiar nature of this case,
l have requested the attorney general...

982
01:07:53,778 --> 01:07:56,238
to allow Mr. Dancer to sit in
with the prosecution.

983
01:07:56,322 --> 01:07:58,949
Your reputation precedes you, Mr. Dancer.

984
01:07:59,033 --> 01:08:01,326
lt's a privilege to have you in my court.

985
01:08:01,411 --> 01:08:04,329
Thank you, Your Ηonor.
l'm sure it will be instructive.

986
01:08:04,414 --> 01:08:07,082
Do any of you jurors
have any business pending...

987
01:08:07,167 --> 01:08:09,168
before the attorney general's office?

988
01:08:09,252 --> 01:08:10,753
No.

989
01:08:11,838 --> 01:08:14,757
l must apologize for my disparaging remarks...

990
01:08:14,841 --> 01:08:17,634
about the Upper Peninsula and its customs.

991
01:08:17,719 --> 01:08:22,890
l've seldom seen a murder jury
selected and sworn in less than half a day.

992
01:08:22,974 --> 01:08:26,185
You have won my heart completely, gentlemen.

993
01:08:26,269 --> 01:08:29,688
Now, Mr. Dancer, you asked for the recess.
What's your problem?

994
01:08:29,773 --> 01:08:32,608
There was a little suggestion
l wanted to make, Your Honor.

995
01:08:32,692 --> 01:08:36,361
- By all means.
- Since the defense plea is insanity...

996
01:08:36,446 --> 01:08:38,697
the prosecution has retained a psychiatrist.

997
01:08:38,782 --> 01:08:41,658
Under the statute, we have the right
to petition for a mental examination...

998
01:08:41,743 --> 01:08:43,827
of the defendant by our own doctor.

999
01:08:43,912 --> 01:08:45,954
Are you familiar with that statute,
Mr. Biegler?

1000
01:08:46,039 --> 01:08:48,207
Uh-huh. Moderately.

1001
01:08:48,291 --> 01:08:50,793
l think it would only
delay things to file a formal petition...

1002
01:08:50,877 --> 01:08:53,212
so why don't we just, uh,
get together and sort of...

1003
01:08:53,296 --> 01:08:55,297
informally agree to ask Ηis Ηonor
for an adjournment?

1004
01:08:55,381 --> 01:08:58,258
Only a day or so,
and our doctor can visit with the defendant.

1005
01:08:58,343 --> 01:09:01,345
l think it would save everyone
a great deal of time. Don't you, Mr. Biegler?

1006
01:09:01,429 --> 01:09:03,388
- Yes, l'm sure it will.
- Good.

1007
01:09:03,473 --> 01:09:08,227
But suppose you just go ahead
and file that formal petition anyway.

1008
01:09:08,311 --> 01:09:10,312
Of course, you're a little late, aren't ya?

1009
01:09:10,396 --> 01:09:12,314
Well, maybe Ηis Ηonor will overlook that.

1010
01:09:12,398 --> 01:09:14,483
And then, l'd sort of like the jury to see...

1011
01:09:14,567 --> 01:09:17,194
that you think our insanity plea
has some merit.

1012
01:09:17,278 --> 01:09:19,738
There really won't be any need for our doctor
to examine your client.

1013
01:09:19,823 --> 01:09:21,740
Naturally, l was only following
the usual procedure.

1014
01:09:21,825 --> 01:09:23,742
- Well, naturally, l'm all for it.
- Uh-huh.

1015
01:09:23,827 --> 01:09:26,370
Do you wish to file the petition or not,
Mr. Dancer?

1016
01:09:26,454 --> 01:09:28,205
- Yes, Your Ηonor -
- lt won't be necessary.

1017
01:09:28,289 --> 01:09:29,998
That's right. lt won't be necessary at all.

1018
01:09:30,083 --> 01:09:33,877
Skirmish over.
Shall we join now on the field of battle?

1019
01:09:37,757 --> 01:09:42,010
The body of Quill had sustained
five gunshot wounds.

1020
01:09:42,095 --> 01:09:45,013
One of the bullets
had passed through the heart.

1021
01:09:45,098 --> 01:09:48,767
Death, in my opinion,
was almost instantaneous...

1022
01:09:48,852 --> 01:09:50,769
and was directly caused by this wound.

1023
01:09:50,854 --> 01:09:54,898
- Dr. Raschid, may l have your detailed report?
- Certainly.

1024
01:09:54,983 --> 01:09:59,027
l ask that this report be marked
People's Exhibit One for identification.

1025
01:09:59,112 --> 01:10:01,321
So received and marked.

1026
01:10:01,406 --> 01:10:04,032
The People hand the defense
a copy of the report.

1027
01:10:04,576 --> 01:10:06,618
Counsel may cross-examine.

1028
01:10:06,703 --> 01:10:11,623
Dr. Raschid, your primary purpose was to
ascertain the cause of death, was it not?

1029
01:10:11,708 --> 01:10:12,833
Yes.

1030
01:10:12,917 --> 01:10:15,961
And yet, l read in your report here,
that you checked...

1031
01:10:16,045 --> 01:10:18,505
to determine whether
spermatogenesis was occurring...

1032
01:10:18,590 --> 01:10:20,966
in the body of the deceased
at the time of death.

1033
01:10:21,050 --> 01:10:25,888
Objection, Your Ηonor. The People
call this witness only to show the cause of death.

1034
01:10:25,972 --> 01:10:28,599
Your Ηonor, the entire report
was offered as evidence...

1035
01:10:28,683 --> 01:10:31,727
and the report contains this information
about spermatogenesis.

1036
01:10:31,811 --> 01:10:35,022
Overruled, Mr. Lodwick.
The witness may answer.

1037
01:10:35,648 --> 01:10:38,650
Yes, l made that examination on the deceased.

1038
01:10:38,735 --> 01:10:41,737
Now, would you tell the court your findings?

1039
01:10:41,821 --> 01:10:44,781
Spermatogenesis was occurring
at the time of death.

1040
01:10:44,866 --> 01:10:49,369
ln other words, the deceased, in life,
was not sterile. He could produce children.

1041
01:10:49,454 --> 01:10:51,413
- That is correct.
- Now, Doctor...

1042
01:10:51,497 --> 01:10:55,834
if a woman says that she has had
intercourse with a certain man...

1043
01:10:55,919 --> 01:11:00,005
and the man is proved fertile, even though
no evidence is found in the woman's body...

1044
01:11:00,089 --> 01:11:02,382
could a lawyer - say a prosecuting attorney -

1045
01:11:02,467 --> 01:11:06,011
could he use this as evidence
that the woman is lying?

1046
01:11:06,095 --> 01:11:10,766
Your Ηonor.
l, uh, object to this line of questioning.

1047
01:11:10,850 --> 01:11:12,935
We're not concerned here with whether or not...

1048
01:11:13,019 --> 01:11:15,437
there have been relations
between a man and a woman.

1049
01:11:15,521 --> 01:11:18,857
Your Ηonor, as long as an examination
for spermatogenesis has been made...

1050
01:11:18,942 --> 01:11:20,692
at least we're entitled to know why.

1051
01:11:20,777 --> 01:11:22,527
Overruled. You may answer.

1052
01:11:22,612 --> 01:11:25,572
Yes. Prosecution could use that...

1053
01:11:25,657 --> 01:11:29,201
though it certainly
would not be conclusive that she was lying.

1054
01:11:29,285 --> 01:11:31,954
- Why not?
- There could be several reasons...

1055
01:11:32,038 --> 01:11:33,956
why the test on her was negative.

1056
01:11:34,040 --> 01:11:37,084
The, uh, use of a contraceptive...

1057
01:11:37,168 --> 01:11:40,963
or - or possibly there was no completion
on the part of the man.

1058
01:11:41,047 --> 01:11:43,882
Now, on this postmortem were you also asked
to determine whether or not...

1059
01:11:43,967 --> 01:11:48,136
the deceased had reached
a sexual climax shortly before his death?

1060
01:11:48,221 --> 01:11:50,764
- No, sir.
- Could you have made such a determination?

1061
01:11:50,848 --> 01:11:52,349
Oh, yes.

1062
01:11:52,433 --> 01:11:55,143
So you were only asked
to make such examination...

1063
01:11:55,228 --> 01:11:58,230
as might be useful to the prosecution,
none that might help the defense?

1064
01:11:58,314 --> 01:12:02,359
l object, Your Ηonor.
The question is argumentative.

1065
01:12:02,443 --> 01:12:04,987
Counsel for the defense
is trying to impugn the intent...

1066
01:12:05,071 --> 01:12:06,989
of the representatives of the People.

1067
01:12:07,073 --> 01:12:10,242
Mr. Biegler, you must be aware
that the question is improper.

1068
01:12:10,326 --> 01:12:12,911
l withdraw the question, Your Honor,
and apologize.

1069
01:12:12,996 --> 01:12:15,414
The question and answer will be stricken...

1070
01:12:15,498 --> 01:12:19,084
and the jury will disregard
both the question and the answer.

1071
01:12:20,044 --> 01:12:22,754
- That's all the questions l had.
- No redirect.

1072
01:12:22,839 --> 01:12:26,091
The People now call Lloyd Burke.

1073
01:12:26,175 --> 01:12:28,802
[ Bailiff ]
Will the witness step forward, please.

1074
01:12:32,348 --> 01:12:36,184
[ Whispering ] How can a jury disregard
what it's already heard?

1075
01:12:36,769 --> 01:12:40,772
They can't, Lieutenant. They can't.

1076
01:12:40,857 --> 01:12:44,276
...the whole truth,
and nothing but the truth, so help you God?

1077
01:12:44,360 --> 01:12:46,445
- l do.
- Sit down, please.

1078
01:12:47,280 --> 01:12:49,614
Will you state your profession,
please, Mr. Burke?

1079
01:12:49,699 --> 01:12:53,869
- l'm a commercial photographer.
- Were you called upon by the police...

1080
01:12:53,953 --> 01:12:57,789
to take photographs
of the body of the deceased Bernard Quill...

1081
01:12:57,874 --> 01:13:00,751
before and after he was removed
from the scene of death?

1082
01:13:00,835 --> 01:13:02,002
Yes, sir, l was.

1083
01:13:02,086 --> 01:13:04,838
Were these photographs
of the deceased made by you?

1084
01:13:09,385 --> 01:13:11,386
They were.

1085
01:13:11,471 --> 01:13:13,388
The reporter will please mark
these photographs...

1086
01:13:13,473 --> 01:13:16,391
People's Exhibit 2A to 2D for identification.

1087
01:13:16,476 --> 01:13:19,853
Photographs are tendered
to the defense for examination...

1088
01:13:19,937 --> 01:13:22,147
and the People move
their admission as evidence.

1089
01:13:22,231 --> 01:13:24,983
- Your witness.
- Uh, no questions. No objections.

1090
01:13:25,068 --> 01:13:27,444
Paul, he took pictures of me that night too.

1091
01:13:27,528 --> 01:13:29,863
Just a minute, Mr. Burke.

1092
01:13:29,947 --> 01:13:33,075
Uh, Mr. Burke...

1093
01:13:33,159 --> 01:13:35,160
these photographs offered as evidence...

1094
01:13:35,244 --> 01:13:37,913
are they the only photographs
you took that night?

1095
01:13:37,997 --> 01:13:39,998
Why, uh, no.

1096
01:13:40,083 --> 01:13:42,250
l suppose the others didn't turn out.
ls that it?

1097
01:13:43,169 --> 01:13:45,087
All my pictures turn out!

1098
01:13:45,171 --> 01:13:48,048
- [ Spectators Laugh ]
- Oh, of course. l - l beg your pardon.

1099
01:13:48,132 --> 01:13:50,842
Did you give the other pictures to the police?

1100
01:13:50,927 --> 01:13:53,845
- Yes, sir, l did.
- Well, Mr. Burke, what were they?

1101
01:13:53,930 --> 01:13:57,599
Were they side shots,
or a shot of the moon, perhaps?

1102
01:13:57,683 --> 01:14:00,644
- Or a black bear scavenging the Thunder Bay dump?
- [ Spectators Laugh ]

1103
01:14:00,728 --> 01:14:04,564
Your Honor, l object!
l can't see how other photographs are relevant.

1104
01:14:04,649 --> 01:14:06,566
The photographs in evidence were introduced...

1105
01:14:06,651 --> 01:14:09,361
to show that the deceased
met with a violent death.

1106
01:14:09,445 --> 01:14:12,989
Well, Your Ηonor, l should think any photograph
pertaining to the case would be relevant.

1107
01:14:13,074 --> 01:14:15,951
The point is good, Mr. Biegler. Continue.

1108
01:14:16,035 --> 01:14:18,829
What were these other
photographs of, Mr. Burke?

1109
01:14:19,622 --> 01:14:21,331
Lieutenant Manion's wife.

1110
01:14:21,415 --> 01:14:25,377
You mean these photographs showed how
she looked that night after Barney Quill was killed?

1111
01:14:25,461 --> 01:14:28,547
- Yes.
- Your Honor, how she looked is irrelevant.

1112
01:14:28,631 --> 01:14:32,217
No evidence has been introduced to connect
Mrs. Manion's appearance to a charge of murder.

1113
01:14:32,301 --> 01:14:34,427
- [ Judge Weaver ] Sustained.
- l'm sorry, Your Honor.

1114
01:14:34,512 --> 01:14:37,764
l just wanted to make sure the prosecution
wasn't withholding evidence.

1115
01:14:37,849 --> 01:14:39,766
Now look here!

1116
01:14:39,851 --> 01:14:42,894
l protest to the defense attorney's
persistent attacks...

1117
01:14:42,979 --> 01:14:45,397
on the motives of the prosecution.

1118
01:14:45,481 --> 01:14:50,152
The jury will disregard the remark
made by the attorney for the defense.

1119
01:14:50,236 --> 01:14:54,573
There's no reason to believe that
the prosecution has not acted in good faith.

1120
01:14:54,657 --> 01:14:57,701
My apologies to the prosecution,
and to the court.

1121
01:14:57,785 --> 01:15:01,496
But, Your Honor,
as long as protests are being made...

1122
01:15:01,581 --> 01:15:03,748
l'd like to make a protest myself.

1123
01:15:03,833 --> 01:15:09,087
Now, l'm perfectly willing to take on
these two legal giants anytime, anyplace...

1124
01:15:09,172 --> 01:15:12,048
but in all fairness,
it ought to be one at a time.

1125
01:15:12,133 --> 01:15:15,760
l don't want these two fellows
pitching knuckleballs at me at the same time.

1126
01:15:15,845 --> 01:15:19,097
lt seems to me you're batting
close to a thousand, Mr. Biegler...

1127
01:15:19,182 --> 01:15:21,808
but your point is well taken.

1128
01:15:21,893 --> 01:15:24,436
Whichever attorney opens with the witness...

1129
01:15:24,520 --> 01:15:29,191
he alone shall continue with that witness
until the witness is excused.

1130
01:15:29,275 --> 01:15:31,401
Thank you, Your Honor. No more questions.

1131
01:15:31,485 --> 01:15:33,403
No questions.

1132
01:15:44,207 --> 01:15:46,958
- My, we're drawing well, aren't we?
- Where's Parnell?

1133
01:15:47,043 --> 01:15:49,085
Parnell? Why? lsn't he here?

1134
01:15:49,170 --> 01:15:52,297
No, he's not here. He's not in his rooming house,
and he hasn't been there all night.

1135
01:15:52,381 --> 01:15:54,299

- Did he keep any guns behind the bar?

1292
01:24:22,182 --> 01:24:24,100
Well, he might have.

1293
01:24:24,184 --> 01:24:28,104
lsn't it a fact that there are three concealed
pistol racks behind the bar, Mr. Paquette?

1294
01:24:28,188 --> 01:24:31,983
Your Honor, the defendant's plea
is one of insanity, not self-defense.

1295
01:24:32,067 --> 01:24:35,987
l'm sure Mr. Biegler
hasn't forgotten that fact, Mr. Lodwick.

1296
01:24:36,071 --> 01:24:40,158
- You may answer.
- Are there concealed gun racks behind the bar?

1297
01:24:40,242 --> 01:24:41,242
Yes.

1298
01:24:41,326 --> 01:24:44,537
And how many people
know about these gun racks?

1299
01:24:44,621 --> 01:24:47,749
- l couldn't say.
- But isn't it a fact that Barney,
every once in a while...

1300
01:24:47,833 --> 01:24:50,668
he'd take the guns out of these racks,
and twirling them on his fingers...

1301
01:24:50,753 --> 01:24:53,671
he'd demonstrate his skill to the patrons?

1302
01:24:53,756 --> 01:24:55,631
- lsn't it?
- l don't remember.

1303
01:24:55,716 --> 01:24:57,967
Oh, now, come on. Try and remember.

1304
01:24:58,051 --> 01:25:01,804
- Did you ever see him do that yourself?
- Once or twice he did.

1305
01:25:01,889 --> 01:25:05,391
- That's all, Mr. Paquette.
- [ Lodwick ] No further questions.

1306
01:25:05,476 --> 01:25:09,103
- [ Judge Weaver ] The witness may step down.
- Call George Lemon.

1307
01:25:14,943 --> 01:25:17,612
[ Whispering ]
Biegler's going off in all directions.

1308
01:25:17,696 --> 01:25:19,614
What's he getting at?

1309
01:25:20,783 --> 01:25:22,575
[ Bailiff ]
Raise your right hand, please.

1310
01:25:22,659 --> 01:25:26,496
- l have a feeling he's afraid of what we'll get at.
- [ Bailiff ] ...shall be the truth -

1311
01:25:26,580 --> 01:25:29,457
Mr. Biegler's putting up
a smoke screen for some reason.

1312
01:25:29,541 --> 01:25:31,793
- l do.
- Take a seat, please.

1313
01:25:33,796 --> 01:25:37,256
- Will you state your name, please?
- George Lemon.

1314
01:25:37,341 --> 01:25:39,217
What kind of work do you do, Mr. Lemon?

1315
01:25:39,301 --> 01:25:42,553
l'm caretaker of the tourist park
in Thunder Bay.

1316
01:25:42,638 --> 01:25:44,555
l see the place is clean and orderly.

1317
01:25:44,640 --> 01:25:47,141
l check people in,
check 'em out and lock the gate at night.

1318
01:25:47,226 --> 01:25:50,520
And what is your authority for these duties?

1319
01:25:50,604 --> 01:25:55,900
l'm paid by Mastodon township, and l'm also
a deputy sheriff - just courtesy, sort of.

1320
01:25:56,568 --> 01:25:59,403
Did you see Lieutenant Manion
on the night of the 1 5th?

1321
01:25:59,488 --> 01:26:02,406
- The night Barney Quill was killed?
- Yes, sir.

1322
01:26:03,283 --> 01:26:05,284
Will you tell the court...

1323
01:26:05,369 --> 01:26:10,414
about how and-and when
you saw Lieutenant Manion?

1324
01:26:10,499 --> 01:26:13,543
About 1 :00 a.m.,
a knock on my door waked me up.

1325
01:26:13,627 --> 01:26:16,254
l went to the door,
and Lieutenant Manion was standing there.

1326
01:26:16,338 --> 01:26:21,175
Ηe said, "You better take me, Mr. Lemon,
because l just shot Barney Quill."

1327
01:26:21,260 --> 01:26:24,512
l told him to go back to his trailer
and that l would call the state police.

1328
01:26:24,596 --> 01:26:28,432
Ηow did Lieutenant Manion
appear to you when he asked you to take him?

1329
01:26:28,517 --> 01:26:32,186
Ηe said what he had to say
and did what l told him. There wasn't any fuss.

1330
01:26:32,271 --> 01:26:35,356
Did he appear to you to be,
as far as you could tell...

1331
01:26:35,440 --> 01:26:38,109
in complete possession of his faculties?

1332
01:26:38,193 --> 01:26:40,361
As far as l could tell, yes, sir.

1333
01:26:42,030 --> 01:26:43,948
Take the witness.

1334
01:26:44,032 --> 01:26:47,451
Mr. Lemon,
did you go to the Manions' trailer?

1335
01:26:47,536 --> 01:26:48,578
Yes, sir.

1336
01:26:48,662 --> 01:26:50,580
Did you see Mrs. Manion at the trailer?

1337
01:26:50,664 --> 01:26:53,624
- Yes, sir.
- What was her appearance?

1338
01:26:54,209 --> 01:26:56,836
- She was a mess.
- [ Spectators Laugh ]

1339
01:26:56,920 --> 01:26:59,130
Objection.
No evidence has been introduced...

1340
01:26:59,214 --> 01:27:02,133
to make Mrs. Manion's appearance
relevant to this case.

1341
01:27:02,217 --> 01:27:05,761
Well, no evidence has been introduced
to make Barney Quill's appearance relevant...

1342
01:27:05,846 --> 01:27:07,930
but you didn't object to the question then.

1343
01:27:08,015 --> 01:27:11,767
ls that because you know that Barney Quill
bathed and changed and cooled off...

1344
01:27:11,852 --> 01:27:14,395
after he raped and beat hell
out of this poor woman?

1345
01:27:14,479 --> 01:27:17,857
Your Ηonor, everybody in this court
is being tried except Frederick Manion!

1346
01:27:17,983 --> 01:27:21,152
- l must protest -
- Now listen! This is a cross-examination
in a murder case!

1347
01:27:21,236 --> 01:27:24,238
lt's not a high school debate!
What are you and Dancer trying to do?

1348
01:27:24,323 --> 01:27:26,657
Railroad this soldier into the clink?

1349
01:27:26,742 --> 01:27:29,410
Mr. Biegler,
you are an experienced attorney...

1350
01:27:29,494 --> 01:27:32,246
and you know better
than to make such an outburst.

1351
01:27:32,331 --> 01:27:35,207
l will not tolerate intemperance of this sort.

1352
01:27:35,292 --> 01:27:38,544
lf you once again try
the patience of this court...

1353
01:27:38,629 --> 01:27:41,047
l shall hold you in contempt.

1354
01:27:42,257 --> 01:27:43,674
Sorry.

1355
01:27:44,468 --> 01:27:46,344
Your Ηonor...

1356
01:27:46,428 --> 01:27:50,014
l apologize,
and it won't happen again.

1357
01:27:50,098 --> 01:27:54,810
The witness's answer will be stricken,
and the jury will disregard the answer.

1358
01:27:55,354 --> 01:27:59,106
- Now you may proceed, Mr. Biegler.
- Yes, sir.

1359
01:27:59,983 --> 01:28:01,943
Mr. Lemon...

1360
01:28:02,027 --> 01:28:05,279
on the night when Lieutenant Manion
awakened you and turned himself in...

1361
01:28:05,364 --> 01:28:07,281
had you been awakened before?

1362
01:28:07,366 --> 01:28:10,368
- Had anything else disturbed your slumbers?
- No, sir.

1363
01:28:10,452 --> 01:28:14,872
- There were no soldiers singing?
- No, sir. Not in my park after 1 0:00.

1364
01:28:14,957 --> 01:28:19,126
- There were no women screaming?
- Well, those screams were down by the gate.

1365
01:28:19,211 --> 01:28:20,836
Objection! Objection!

1366
01:28:20,921 --> 01:28:23,923
l see no reason for objecting yet,
Mr. Lodwick.

1367
01:28:24,007 --> 01:28:27,176
Tell us about those screams, Mr. Lemon.

1368
01:28:27,260 --> 01:28:30,721
l didn't hear 'em myself.
There were some tourists from Ohio in the park...

1369
01:28:30,806 --> 01:28:33,140
and they heard 'em
and told me about it the next day.

1370
01:28:33,225 --> 01:28:37,269
- Now, Mr. Lodwick.
- This testimony is incompetent, hearsay...

1371
01:28:37,354 --> 01:28:40,314
irrelevant, immaterial, inconclusive -

1372
01:28:40,399 --> 01:28:42,817
- Yeah, well, that's too much for me.
- [ Spectators Chuckle ]

Oh, uh, uh, no questions.

- Call your next witness.
- Um -

01:28:54,830 --> 01:28:57,081
Detective Sergeant James Durgo.

1378
01:28:58,917 --> 01:29:01,168
- Hi, Polly.
- [ Whispering ] Ηi, Jim. Come here.

1379
01:29:03,213 --> 01:29:06,007
As soon as we break,
you'd better phone that army psychiatrist.

1380
01:29:06,091 --> 01:29:08,926
- Tell him to be here day after tomorrow.
- Will do.

1381
01:29:09,011 --> 01:29:12,263
Will you please tell me
where Parnell has gone?

1382
01:29:12,347 --> 01:29:14,265
Won't do.

1383
01:29:14,349 --> 01:29:15,975
You're fired.

1384
01:29:17,019 --> 01:29:19,395
You can't fire me till you pay me.

1385
01:29:19,479 --> 01:29:21,772
[ Durgo ]
Detective Sergeant James Durgo, state police.

1386
01:29:21,857 --> 01:29:24,775
[ Lodwick ] Were you called to Thunder Bay
by Deputy Sheriff Lemon of Thunder Bay...

1387
01:29:24,860 --> 01:29:27,194
on the night that Barney Quill
was shot and killed?

1388
01:29:27,279 --> 01:29:31,282
Yes, sir, l was. My companion officer and l
were the first to be called in on the case.

1389
01:29:31,366 --> 01:29:34,952
Sergeant Durgo, when you arrived
at the Manion trailer, who was there?

1390
01:29:35,037 --> 01:29:37,371
Lieutenant Manion and his wife were there.

1391
01:29:37,456 --> 01:29:39,707
What did Lieutenant Manion say to you?

1392
01:29:40,792 --> 01:29:44,128
Ηe said that his wife
had had some trouble with Barney Quill -

1393
01:29:44,212 --> 01:29:46,922
that he had gone to the tavern
and shot Quill.

1394
01:29:47,007 --> 01:29:50,342
Ηe asked us whether Quill was dead or not.
We told him he was.

1395
01:29:50,427 --> 01:29:53,429
Ηow did Lieutenant Manion
take this information?

1396
01:29:53,513 --> 01:29:57,183
- He didn't seem surprised.
- What did you do then, Sergeant Durgo?

1397
01:29:57,267 --> 01:29:59,185
l asked for the gun he'd used.

1398
01:29:59,269 --> 01:30:03,397
Did you take Lieutenant Manion to the county jail
here in lron City on that same night?

1399
01:30:03,482 --> 01:30:06,275
Yes, sir. We drove the lieutenant
down with his wife.

1400
01:30:06,359 --> 01:30:11,322
On the drive to lron City, did the lieutenant
talk further about the shooting?

1401
01:30:11,406 --> 01:30:15,159
Ηe remarked that if he had the whole thing
to do over again, he'd still do it.

1402
01:30:15,243 --> 01:30:18,996
[ Lodwick ] During all this -
at the trailer, the drive to lron City -

1403
01:30:19,081 --> 01:30:20,956
how did Lieutenant Manion appear to you?

1404
01:30:22,209 --> 01:30:25,586
Ηe was very quiet most of the time.
Seemed clearheaded.

1405
01:30:25,670 --> 01:30:29,965
As far as you could tell, would you say that
he was in complete possession of his faculties?

1406
01:30:30,050 --> 01:30:32,760
- Seemed so to me.
- Your witness.

1407
01:30:32,844 --> 01:30:37,640
Sergeant Durgo, you testified that Lieutenant
Manion told you that he shot Barney Quill...

1408
01:30:37,724 --> 01:30:42,061
after he learned that his wife
had had some trouble with Quill.

1409
01:30:42,145 --> 01:30:45,606
Now, were these the words
Lieutenant Manion used? "Some trouble"?

1410
01:30:45,690 --> 01:30:48,025
No, sir. Those were my words, not his.

1411
01:30:48,110 --> 01:30:51,028
And was it your notion
to come here and use your own words?

1412
01:30:51,113 --> 01:30:53,030
No, sir. lt was not.

1413
01:30:53,115 --> 01:30:58,369
And was the suggestion to call it "some trouble"
made by somebody here in this courtroom?

1414
01:31:00,080 --> 01:31:02,540
Yes, sir, it was.

1415
01:31:02,624 --> 01:31:04,875
All right, Sergeant.
Now, would you tell the court...

1416
01:31:04,960 --> 01:31:07,336
what words Lieutenant Manion actually used...

1417
01:31:07,420 --> 01:31:09,630
to describe the trouble his wife had had?

1418
01:31:09,714 --> 01:31:12,383
Objection, Your Ηonor.
We've been over this before.

1419
01:31:12,467 --> 01:31:15,553
This information would not be relevant
to any issues before the court.

1420
01:31:15,637 --> 01:31:17,555
This statement concerning some trouble...

1421
01:31:17,639 --> 01:31:21,350
was brought out during
the direct examination of Sergeant Durgo.

1422
01:31:21,434 --> 01:31:26,730
Up to now you've adroitly restricted
all testimony as far as Laura Manion's concerned.

1423
01:31:26,815 --> 01:31:30,317
All right. The cat's out of the bag.
lt's fair game for me to chase it.

1424
01:31:30,402 --> 01:31:33,487
This is a sore point, Mr. Biegler,
and it's getting sorer.

1425
01:31:33,572 --> 01:31:35,489
l'd like to hear from the prosecution.

1426
01:31:35,574 --> 01:31:40,536
The burden is on the defense to prove
temporary insanity at the time of the shooting.

1427
01:31:40,620 --> 01:31:44,790
Now, if the reason for the alleged insanity
is important to this case...

1428
01:31:44,875 --> 01:31:47,418
then that is a matter
for a competent witness...

1429
01:31:47,502 --> 01:31:50,296
an expert on the subject of the human mind.

1430
01:31:51,339 --> 01:31:53,841
What the defense is trying to do...

1431
01:31:53,925 --> 01:31:56,760
is introduce some sensational material...

1432
01:31:56,845 --> 01:31:59,513
for the purposes of obscuring the real issues.

1433
01:32:00,974 --> 01:32:05,603
Your Ηonor, how can the jury accurately
estimate the testimony being given here...

1434
01:32:05,687 --> 01:32:09,148
unless they first know
the reason behind this whole trial -

1435
01:32:09,232 --> 01:32:12,109
why Lieutenant Manion shot Barney Quill.

1436
01:32:12,194 --> 01:32:16,280
Now, the prosecution would like to separate
the motive from the act.

1437
01:32:16,364 --> 01:32:21,285
Well, that's like trying to take the core
from an apple without breaking the skin.

1438
01:32:21,369 --> 01:32:26,290
The core of our defense
is that the defendant's temporary insanity...

1439
01:32:26,374 --> 01:32:29,668
was triggered by
this so-called trouble with Quill.

1440
01:32:29,753 --> 01:32:31,879
And l beg the court -

1441
01:32:31,963 --> 01:32:36,467
l beg the court
to let me cut into the apple.

1442
01:32:38,386 --> 01:32:40,763
Our objection still stands, Your Ηonor.

1443
01:32:55,278 --> 01:32:57,154
Objection overruled.

how Lieutenant Manion described
the trouble his wife had with Barney Quill.

01:33:11,544 --> 01:33:14,964
Ηe told us that Quill had raped his wife.

1448
01:33:15,048 --> 01:33:19,468
Now, can you recall generally what
Lieutenant Manion told you about this rape?

1449
01:33:20,053 --> 01:33:24,223
Yes, sir. He said he'd been asleep
since right after dinner.

1450
01:33:24,307 --> 01:33:28,394
That he was waked up by some noise.
Screams, he thought.

1451
01:33:28,478 --> 01:33:32,064
That he got up, opened the trailer door
and went outside.

1452
01:33:32,607 --> 01:33:35,693
His wife came running
out of the dark and fell into his arms.

1453
01:33:35,777 --> 01:33:39,029
You saw his wife in the trailer.
How'd she look?

1454
01:33:39,114 --> 01:33:42,199
She was a little hysterical.
She'd been pretty badly beaten up.

1455
01:33:42,284 --> 01:33:45,077
She had big black bruises
over her face and her arms.

1456
01:33:45,161 --> 01:33:48,998
- Did Mrs. Manion tell you
about this rape and beating?
- She did.

1457
01:33:49,124 --> 01:33:52,668
- And did she take you
to the place where it had happened?
- Yes, sir. The next morning.

1458
01:33:52,752 --> 01:33:56,213
And did you find anything there?
Any sort of evidence pertaining to the story...

1459
01:33:56,298 --> 01:33:58,716
that Mrs. Manion had told you?

1460
01:33:58,800 --> 01:34:03,554
On the lane in the woods we found
some tire tracks and some dog tracks...

1461
01:34:03,638 --> 01:34:07,349
and a leather case with some
horn-rimmed glasses inside.

1462
01:34:08,310 --> 01:34:10,477
We also looked for...

1463
01:34:10,562 --> 01:34:14,189
a certain undergarment of Mrs. Manion's,
but we didn't find it.

1464
01:34:14,274 --> 01:34:17,067
Will the attorneys for both sides
approach the bench, please?

1465
01:34:21,114 --> 01:34:25,159
[ Whispering ] Mr. Biegler,
you finally got your rape into the case...

1466
01:34:25,243 --> 01:34:29,079
and l think all the details
should now be made clear to the jury.

1467
01:34:29,164 --> 01:34:33,083
- Do you agree, Mr. Lodwick?
- Absolutely.

1468
01:34:33,168 --> 01:34:36,545
What exactly was
the undergarment just referred to?

1469
01:34:36,629 --> 01:34:38,339
Panties, Your Honor.

1470
01:34:38,423 --> 01:34:42,134
- Do you expect this subject to come up again?
- Yes, sir.

1471
01:34:42,218 --> 01:34:46,555
There's a certain light connotation
attached to the word "panties."

1472
01:34:46,639 --> 01:34:48,682
Can we find another name for them?

1473
01:34:48,767 --> 01:34:52,728
- l never heard my wife call 'em anything else.
- Mr. Biegler?

1474
01:34:52,812 --> 01:34:57,608
- l'm a bachelor, Your Ηonor.
- That's a great help. Mr. Dancer?

1475
01:34:57,692 --> 01:35:02,529
When l was overseas during the war,
Your Ηonor, l - l learned a French word.

1476
01:35:02,614 --> 01:35:06,992
- l'm afraid that it might be slightly suggestive.
- Most French words are.

1477
01:35:07,077 --> 01:35:10,120
All right, gentlemen. Back to your places.

1478
01:35:10,830 --> 01:35:15,501
For the benefit of the jury,
but more especially for the spectators...

1479
01:35:15,585 --> 01:35:19,380
the undergarment referred to
in the testimony was, to be exact...

1480
01:35:19,464 --> 01:35:21,382
Mrs. Manion's panties.

[ Spectators Laughing ]

1482
01:35:24,719 --> 01:35:29,306
l wanted you to get your snickering
over and done with.

1483
01:35:29,391 --> 01:35:33,644
This pair of panties will be mentioned again
in the course of this trial...

1484
01:35:33,728 --> 01:35:36,230

there will not be one laugh...

one snicker, one giggle...

1486
01:35:38,316 --> 01:35:41,443
or even one smirk in my courtroom.

1487
01:35:41,528 --> 01:35:45,155
There isn't anything comic
about a pair of panties...

1488
01:35:45,240 --> 01:35:48,659
which figure in the violent death
of one man...

1489
01:35:48,743 --> 01:35:52,329
and the possible incarceration of another.

1490
01:35:52,872 --> 01:35:54,915
Proceed, Mr. Biegler.

1491
01:35:54,999 --> 01:35:57,668
- Did you give Mrs. Manion a lie detector test?
- Objection.

1492
01:35:57,752 --> 01:36:00,546
A polygraph test is inadmissible evidence
in our courts.

1493
01:36:00,630 --> 01:36:04,049
l only asked if he gave the test.
l didn't ask the results.

1494
01:36:04,134 --> 01:36:06,135
[ Judge Weaver ]
Ηe may answer that.

1495
01:36:06,219 --> 01:36:09,221
l gave her a lie detector test at her request.

1496
01:36:09,305 --> 01:36:13,600
- After all this investigation,
did you believe Mrs. Manion?
- l did.

1497
01:36:13,685 --> 01:36:17,062
- Even after the lie detector test?
- Your Ηonor, l object to that question!

1498
01:36:17,147 --> 01:36:21,233
lt constitutes flagrant, sneaking subterfuge
on the part of the defense counsel.

1499
01:36:21,317 --> 01:36:25,028
Objection sustained.
Ladies and gentlemen of the jury...

1500
01:36:25,113 --> 01:36:28,991
a polygraph or lie detector test
is not admissible in evidence...

1501
01:36:29,075 --> 01:36:31,452
because no one has ever been quite sure...

1502
01:36:31,536 --> 01:36:35,497
that some people couldn't lie
to a lie detector and get away with it.

- Go ahead, Mr. Biegler.

- Yes, sir.
- That's all.

- Just a moment.

1507
01:36:50,180 --> 01:36:51,680
Yes, of course.

1508
01:36:53,349 --> 01:36:58,228
Sergeant Durgo, did you look for the panties
elsewhere than the lane in the woods?

1509
01:36:58,313 --> 01:37:01,148
We looked in Barney Quill's car
and his room in the hotel.

1510
01:37:01,232 --> 01:37:03,192
We didn't find the panties.

1511
01:37:03,276 --> 01:37:06,695
Do you know why Mrs. Manion
requested a lie detector test?

1512
01:37:06,779 --> 01:37:08,864
- l know what she said.
- What was that?

1513
01:37:08,948 --> 01:37:10,908
She said she wanted everybody
to believe her story...

1514
01:37:10,992 --> 01:37:12,910
because she knew it would
help her husband.

1515
01:37:12,994 --> 01:37:14,578
Was that the only reason she gave?

1516
01:37:14,662 --> 01:37:18,832
She said she'd already sworn to her husband.
She wanted everybody else to believe it too.

1517

One moment, please, Your Honor.

1518
01:37:24,714 --> 01:37:27,341
Ask him in what manner she swore.

1519
01:37:27,425 --> 01:37:30,677
Did Mrs. Manion say how
she had sworn to her husband?

1520
01:37:30,762 --> 01:37:34,389
Yes, sir. She said she'd sworn on a rosary.

1521
01:37:35,099 --> 01:37:39,186
Sergeant, this lane in the woods -
What's it used for? Where does it go?

1522

Doesn't go anyplace. Just stops.

Who uses it now?

- l think it's a road kids drive down to park.
- You mean it's a lovers' lane.

- l think so. Yes, sir.
- The witness is yours, Mr. Biegler.

- No more questions.
- [ Judge Weaver ] The witness may step down.

which Your Ηonor has ruled admissible...

in order that we may bring in...

we had not anticipated using.

1530

- All right. We'll take a 30-minute recess.
- Recess.

Why didn't you tell me about that rosary?

We forgot it.

We didn't forget it.
Manny said maybe we shouldn't tell that again.

- l did.
- Who called you to the jail?

1547
01:39:26,628 --> 01:39:30,088
- The police authorities.
- What did they want you to do?

1548
01:39:30,173 --> 01:39:32,966
They wanted me to make a test
for the presence of sperm...

1549
01:39:33,051 --> 01:39:35,719
on the person of a Mrs. Frederick Manion.

1550
01:39:35,803 --> 01:39:39,556
- l made the test.
- ln making this test, what was your conclusion?

1551
01:39:39,641 --> 01:39:42,934
- Negative. There was none.
- Your witness, Mr. Biegler.

1552
01:39:44,145 --> 01:39:46,063
Doctor, in making these tests...

1553
01:39:46,147 --> 01:39:48,899
did you notice any bruises or marks
on Mrs. Manion at that time?

1554
01:39:48,983 --> 01:39:50,192
l did.

1555
01:39:50,276 --> 01:39:52,611
Were you asked to determine the reason
for these bruises?

1556
01:39:52,695 --> 01:39:54,196
l was not.

1557
01:39:54,280 --> 01:39:57,199
Where did you do the laboratory work
on your test for sperm?

1558
01:39:57,283 --> 01:39:59,576
Saint Margaret's hospital in this city.

1559
01:39:59,661 --> 01:40:03,747
- Who worked up the slides for you?
- A technician at the hospital.

1560
01:40:03,831 --> 01:40:07,250
Well, wouldn't it have been better
to have these slides worked up...

1561
01:40:07,335 --> 01:40:10,045
by a pathologist or an expert in this field?

1562
01:40:10,129 --> 01:40:12,631
Well, yes, but the police were in a hurry...

came on at 7:00 in the morning.

Wouldn't it have been especially better
to wait for the expert...

01:40:18,638 --> 01:40:21,431
if the possible question of rape
hung on the result?

1566
01:40:21,516 --> 01:40:24,059
- lt would have been.
- Now, Doctor, in the newspaper...

1567
01:40:24,143 --> 01:40:28,063
on the evening of August the 1 6th,
it was stated that you found no evidence of rape.

1568

- ls that true?
- lt is not true. l made no such statement.

1569
01:40:31,609 --> 01:40:35,445
But did you form an opinion
as to whether Mrs. Manion had been raped?

1570
01:40:35,530 --> 01:40:37,781
- No.
- Why didn't you form an opinion?

1571
01:40:37,865 --> 01:40:42,119
lt's impossible to tell
if a mature, married woman has been raped.

1572
01:40:42,203 --> 01:40:44,663
- That's all.
- Doctor...

1573
01:40:44,747 --> 01:40:48,417
did you have an opinion about whether or not
she'd had any recent relations with a man?

1574
01:40:48,501 --> 01:40:51,211
lnsofar as no sperm was present...

1575
01:40:51,295 --> 01:40:54,256
it didn't appear that she had
had recent relations with a man.

1576
01:40:54,340 --> 01:40:57,008
- That's all.
- Just one more question, Doctor.

1577
01:40:57,093 --> 01:40:59,302
The fact that no evidence
was present in her body...

1578
01:40:59,387 --> 01:41:01,638
does not mean that
she was not raped, does it?

No.

Yes, sir.

She had on a real tight skirt
and sweater kind of thing.

a pair of red shoes with high heels.

- No. She was bare legged.

- No.

seeing a barefooted woman in Thunder Bay?

1651

- So Mrs. Manion's taking her
shoes off in Thunder Bay...

1652
01:44:58,793 --> 01:45:01,711

01:51:37,483 --> 01:51:40,610
and tell the court exactly
what Barney told him that night.

1756
01:51:40,694 --> 01:51:43,613
That he'd raped and assaulted Mrs. Manion.

1757
01:51:43,697 --> 01:51:46,282
Al wouldn't conceal a thing like that.

1758
01:51:46,367 --> 01:51:48,409
Why wouldn't he tell it, if it were true?

1759
01:51:48,494 --> 01:51:51,746
l don't know. l don't know.
But l know this.

1760
01:51:51,830 --> 01:51:55,291
Everybody loves something or someone.

1761
01:51:55,376 --> 01:51:57,335
Me, l love fishing...

1762
01:51:57,419 --> 01:51:59,629
and an old guy by the name of Parnell.

1763
01:51:59,713 --> 01:52:03,257
Manion loves his freedom.
Ηe'd like to have a little more of it.

1764
01:52:03,342 --> 01:52:06,969
Barney loved you. Maybe so does Al.

1765
01:52:07,638 --> 01:52:10,556
l wouldn't blame him.
But he doesn't want to hurt you.

1766
01:52:10,641 --> 01:52:13,434
Ηe doesn't want you to know
the truth about Barney...

1767
01:52:13,519 --> 01:52:15,478
that he could be dangerous and brutal.

1768
01:52:15,562 --> 01:52:19,774
Now, if you'd just ask Al.
lf you could just ask him right straight out.

1769
01:52:20,484 --> 01:52:21,776
Al?

1770
01:52:30,119 --> 01:52:33,913
Al, Mr. Biegler knows
that Barney was my father.

1771
01:52:35,249 --> 01:52:38,334
He thinks you know something
about the night my father was killed...

1772
01:52:38,419 --> 01:52:40,837
something you won't tell.

1773
01:52:40,921 --> 01:52:43,548
Lawyer, l told you once,
and l'll tell you again.

1774
01:52:43,632 --> 01:52:46,426
- No questions, no answers.
- Wait, Al.

1775
01:52:49,096 --> 01:52:51,514
Did my father rape Mrs. Manion?

1776
01:52:52,599 --> 01:52:54,517
Barney wouldn't hurt a woman.

1777
01:52:56,395 --> 01:52:59,772
ls there any reason you wouldn't tell me
the truth about that, Al?

1778
01:53:00,941 --> 01:53:02,900
What reason?

1779
01:53:09,116 --> 01:53:11,659
- Anything else, Mr. Biegler?
- No.

1780
01:53:11,743 --> 01:53:14,620
l'm gonna leave a pass
for you and Al at the trial.

1781
01:53:14,705 --> 01:53:17,790
You might like to watch
Lieutenant Manion get convicted.

1782
01:53:18,375 --> 01:53:20,460
You gonna spread it around
about Mary being Barney's kid?

1783
01:53:20,544 --> 01:53:22,795
No, l'm not gonna spread it around, Al.

1784
01:53:22,880 --> 01:53:26,132
Thank you for the beer.
Good night, Miss Pilant.

1785
01:53:30,220 --> 01:53:32,972
All right,
now let's get at this rosary thing.

1786
01:53:33,056 --> 01:53:36,309
Now, it's been testified
that your wife swore to you on a rosary...

1787
01:53:36,393 --> 01:53:39,145
that she'd been raped by Barney Quill.

1788
01:53:39,229 --> 01:53:41,689
Did you ask your wife to swear on a rosary?

1789
01:53:42,733 --> 01:53:45,902
My wife was hysterical.
She wasn't making much sense.

1790
01:53:45,986 --> 01:53:49,155
l thought if l asked her
to take an oath on a rosary...

1791
01:53:49,239 --> 01:53:51,991
it might serve to calm her,
make her think more clearly.

1792
01:53:52,075 --> 01:53:53,993
Did the rosary help?

1793
01:53:54,077 --> 01:53:56,496
She was able to tell me
in detail what had happened.

1794
01:53:56,580 --> 01:53:58,498
All right. Go on from there now.

1795
01:53:58,582 --> 01:54:00,833
What did you do then, Lieutenant?

1796
01:54:00,918 --> 01:54:04,504
Well, l - l had her lie on the bed...

1797
01:54:04,588 --> 01:54:08,508
and l got some cold cloths for her head.

1798
01:54:08,592 --> 01:54:12,512
And, uh - Oh, yes.
l gave her a drink of brandy.

1799
01:54:14,765 --> 01:54:16,682
After a while she became calm...

1800
01:54:16,767 --> 01:54:19,352
seemed to go to sleep.

1801
01:54:19,436 --> 01:54:24,023
Then l went to the closet,
l got my gun, and l loaded it.

1802
01:54:24,107 --> 01:54:27,985
- Was it in your mind to kill Barney Quill?
- No.

1803
01:54:28,070 --> 01:54:31,447
Well, then why did you go to the closet
and get your gun and load it?

1804
01:54:31,532 --> 01:54:35,034
Well, l-l-l knew l had to go to Quill's place.
l thought l might need it.

1805
01:54:35,118 --> 01:54:36,869
Why?

1806
01:54:36,954 --> 01:54:39,705
l knew Mr. Quill kept guns behind the bar.

1807
01:54:39,790 --> 01:54:41,707
l was afraid he might shoot me.

1808
01:54:41,792 --> 01:54:45,169
Might shoot you if you did what?
What were you gonna do?

1809
01:54:46,213 --> 01:54:48,631
l'm not sure.

1810
01:54:48,715 --> 01:54:51,551
l remember having some idea...

1811
01:54:51,635 --> 01:54:53,886
of finding him...

1812
01:54:53,971 --> 01:54:56,889
and holding him while l called the police.

1813
01:54:56,974 --> 01:54:58,975
Well, that Mr. - what's his name -

1814
01:54:59,059 --> 01:55:01,936
Mr. Lemon, right at the tourist court there,
he was a deputy sheriff.

1815
01:55:02,020 --> 01:55:03,938
Why didn't you get him to go with you?

1816
01:55:04,773 --> 01:55:08,901
Maybe because he always seemed to be
just the old caretaker of the park.

1817
01:55:10,320 --> 01:55:14,031
Maybe because l wasn't
thinking about anything too clearly...

1818
01:55:14,116 --> 01:55:16,075
except finding Barney Quill.

1819
01:55:16,159 --> 01:55:19,829
Why didn't you go to a telephone,
call the state police before you went to the bar?

1820
01:55:19,913 --> 01:55:22,081
l don't know.

1821
01:55:22,165 --> 01:55:24,417
l was in sort of a daze.

1822
01:55:25,502 --> 01:55:28,462
lt was a horrible thing
to see what had been done to my wife.

1823
01:55:28,547 --> 01:55:30,756
Now, you say you were in a sort of a daze.

1824
01:55:30,841 --> 01:55:34,260
When you got to the bar,
did you see that the bar was crowded?

1825
01:55:35,012 --> 01:55:36,929
l -

1826
01:55:37,014 --> 01:55:39,557
l didn't see anyone at the bar...

1827
01:55:40,350 --> 01:55:42,435
except Barney Quill.

1828
01:55:42,519 --> 01:55:44,437
Ηe was the only person l saw.

1829
01:55:44,521 --> 01:55:46,522
What was he doing?

1830
01:55:47,190 --> 01:55:50,985
l think he was just
standing there behind the bar.

1831
01:55:51,069 --> 01:55:55,072
Well, now, did he make
a threatening move to get a gun?

1832
01:55:55,157 --> 01:55:56,699
l don't know.

1833
01:55:57,284 --> 01:55:58,909
Ηe may have. l don't know.

1834
01:55:58,994 --> 01:56:01,454
All right.
Now, you say you went there to find him...

1835
01:56:01,538 --> 01:56:03,623
to hold him for the police.

1836
01:56:03,707 --> 01:56:05,625
Why did you shoot him?

1837
01:56:07,711 --> 01:56:10,046
l don't remember shooting him.

1838
01:56:10,631 --> 01:56:12,465
Now, when you left the bar...

1839
01:56:12,549 --> 01:56:15,301
do you remember Alphonse Paquette
coming up to you and stopping you...

1840
01:56:15,385 --> 01:56:17,470
and saying,
"You'd better not run away from this"...

1841
01:56:17,554 --> 01:56:21,223
and your reply,
"Do you want some too, buster?"

1842
01:56:21,308 --> 01:56:22,808
Remember that?

1843
01:56:23,518 --> 01:56:25,811
l-l seem to have a vague recollection...

1844
01:56:25,896 --> 01:56:27,813
of somebody speaking to me...

1845
01:56:29,399 --> 01:56:32,902
but l don't remember what l said
or what was said to me.

1846
01:56:32,986 --> 01:56:35,905
When did you realize that you had shot Quill?

1847
01:56:38,575 --> 01:56:40,993
l was - l was getting a drink of water.

1848
01:56:41,078 --> 01:56:43,996
l remember my throat was so dry it hurt.

1849
01:56:45,582 --> 01:56:48,000
And when l put the glass down,
l saw the gun...

1850
01:56:48,085 --> 01:56:50,503
on the kitchen sink beside the tap.

1851
01:56:51,588 --> 01:56:53,589
l noticed the gun was empty.

1852
01:56:54,675 --> 01:56:57,343
Now l'd like you to show the court and jury...

1853
01:56:57,427 --> 01:56:59,011
just, uh -

1854
01:56:59,971 --> 01:57:02,515
just how you knew this gun was empty.

1855
01:57:02,599 --> 01:57:05,017
Well, this gadget here...

1856
01:57:05,102 --> 01:57:08,396
when it sticks up,
you know the last round's been fired.

1857
01:57:09,106 --> 01:57:12,191
Lieutenant Manion,
on the night of the shooting...

1858
01:57:12,275 --> 01:57:14,193
did you love your wife?

1859
01:57:14,277 --> 01:57:17,655
- Yes, sir.
- Do you still love her?

1860
01:57:21,118 --> 01:57:22,952
Very much.

1861
01:57:23,704 --> 01:57:25,746
The witness is yours, Mr. Dancer.

1862
01:57:25,831 --> 01:57:27,707
Lieutenant Manion...

1863
01:57:28,959 --> 01:57:31,210
how many men have you killed?

1864
01:57:31,294 --> 01:57:33,212
Now wait a minute.

1865
01:57:33,880 --> 01:57:37,216
Your Ηonor, a man's war record -
in Lieutenant Manion's case, a great record -

1866
01:57:37,300 --> 01:57:39,218
certainly shouldn't be used against him.

1867
01:57:39,302 --> 01:57:42,221
Your Ηonor, l'm as patriotic as the next man...

1868
01:57:42,305 --> 01:57:47,059
but the simple truth is,
war can condition a man to killing other men.

1869
01:57:47,144 --> 01:57:49,895
l simply want to determine
how conditioned the lieutenant may be...

1870
01:57:49,980 --> 01:57:53,482
to the use of firearms
on other human beings.

1871
01:57:53,567 --> 01:57:55,484
l don't quite like the question, Mr. Biegler...

1872
01:57:55,569 --> 01:57:57,570
but l don't see how l can exclude it.

1873
01:57:57,654 --> 01:57:59,572
Let him answer.

1874
01:57:59,656 --> 01:58:02,908
l know l killed
at least four men in Korea...

1875
01:58:02,993 --> 01:58:04,910
three with a hand grenade...

1876
01:58:04,995 --> 01:58:07,246
and one with my service automatic.

1877
01:58:07,330 --> 01:58:11,083
l may have killed others.
A soldier doesn't always know.

1878
01:58:11,168 --> 01:58:13,419
Now, Lieutenant, in these acts of killing...

1879
01:58:13,503 --> 01:58:15,421
did you ever have a lapse of memory...

1880
01:58:15,505 --> 01:58:18,090
- such as you had when you killed Barney Quill?
- No, sir.

1881
01:58:18,175 --> 01:58:20,593
Did you ever have
a lapse of memory during battle?

1882
01:58:20,677 --> 01:58:23,095
- No, sir.
- Were you ever submitted to a constant barrage...

1883
01:58:23,180 --> 01:58:25,097
constantly in a sweat for many hours...

1884
01:58:25,182 --> 01:58:27,266
- constantly under attack, or attacking?
- Many times.

1885
01:58:27,350 --> 01:58:29,268
Were you ever treated for shell shock,
battle fatigue...

1886
01:58:29,352 --> 01:58:31,437
- or any war neurosis or psychosis?
- No, sir.

1887
01:58:31,521 --> 01:58:35,775
Did you ever experience
any unusual mental state during the war?

1888
01:58:35,859 --> 01:58:38,611
- Well, l do remember having one great urge.
- What was that?

1889
01:58:38,695 --> 01:58:42,114
- To get the hell out and go home.
- [ Spectators Laughing ]

1890
01:58:42,199 --> 01:58:46,452
You would do well to consider the seriousness
of the situation you are in.

1891
01:58:46,536 --> 01:58:49,622
- l'm sorry, Your Honor.
- l sympathize with the lieutenant.

1892
01:58:49,706 --> 01:58:53,626
l expect he has the same feeling
about getting out of jail.

1893
01:58:53,710 --> 01:58:56,796
But the main point here, Lieutenant,
is that at no time during your war service...

1894
01:58:56,880 --> 01:58:58,798
did you have a record of mental disturbance.

1895
01:58:58,882 --> 01:59:00,966
You were always in complete possession
of your faculties.

1896
01:59:01,051 --> 01:59:03,636
Yes, sir, that's right.

1897
01:59:03,720 --> 01:59:06,305
- No more questions.
- [ Biegler ] No redirect, Your Ηonor.

1898

[ Judge Weaver ]
Step down, please. Call your next witness.

1899
01:59:09,059 --> 01:59:11,644
We call Laura Manion to the stand.

1900
01:59:23,740 --> 01:59:26,659
- Up these stairs and to the right.
- Thank you.

1901
01:59:33,166 --> 01:59:35,626
Now, how long after you told your husband
what had happened...

1902
01:59:35,710 --> 01:59:37,962
did he leave the trailer?

1903
01:59:38,046 --> 01:59:40,130
l don't know exactly.

1904
01:59:40,215 --> 01:59:42,132
Everything was kind of fuzzy. l -

1905
01:59:42,217 --> 01:59:44,635
l was faint, and l lay down on the bed.

1906
01:59:44,719 --> 01:59:46,804
Ηe sat beside me.

1907
01:59:46,888 --> 01:59:49,974
l vaguely remember
his getting up and going out.

1908
01:59:50,058 --> 01:59:52,643
l remember wondering
if he was going for a doctor.

1909
01:59:52,727 --> 01:59:54,895
And then he came back in.

1910
01:59:54,980 --> 01:59:57,481
lt seemed like just a few seconds,
but it must have been longer.

1911
01:59:57,566 --> 01:59:59,775
l must have gone to sleep.

1912
02:00:00,527 --> 02:00:03,153
When he came back in,
he sat on the bed...

1913
02:00:03,238 --> 02:00:05,447
and he had a gun in his hand.

1914
02:00:05,532 --> 02:00:08,617
And l said, "What are you going to do?"

1915
02:00:08,702 --> 02:00:11,662
And he said, "l think l've already done it.

1916
02:00:11,746 --> 02:00:13,831
l think l've killed Barney Quill."

1917
02:00:13,915 --> 02:00:17,334
Are you sure he didn't say
"l've killed Barney Quill"?

1918
02:00:17,419 --> 02:00:20,004
No, l - l remember distinctly.

1919
02:00:20,088 --> 02:00:22,006
"l think l've killed Barney Quill."

1920
02:00:22,090 --> 02:00:24,174
Then what did you do?

1921
02:00:24,259 --> 02:00:28,679
l put my arms around him
and began to cry and -

1922
02:00:28,763 --> 02:00:31,515
and l said,
"You'd better go to Mr. Lemon."

1923
02:00:31,600 --> 02:00:33,517
And my husband said, "l forgot about that."

1924
02:00:33,602 --> 02:00:36,520
What did he mean? Forgot about what?

1925
02:00:36,605 --> 02:00:39,690
Well, he meant that he'd forgotten
Mr. Lemon was a deputy sheriff.

1926
02:00:39,774 --> 02:00:43,402
And he said,
"Yes, l'll go turn myself in to Mr. Lemon."

1927
02:00:43,486 --> 02:00:47,698
Yes, l see. Your Ηonor, l have no other
direct questions at this time...

1928
02:00:47,782 --> 02:00:50,367
but since l'm sure
it's difficult to visualize...

1929
02:00:50,452 --> 02:00:53,537
the part a little dog played on this night...

1930
02:00:53,622 --> 02:00:57,541
l should like a few minutes to show the court
this remarkable little animal.

1931
02:00:57,626 --> 02:00:59,543
Do the People object?

1932
02:00:59,628 --> 02:01:01,545
l'm sure if we raise an objection,
Your Honor...

1933
02:01:01,630 --> 02:01:04,924
Mr. Biegler will declare that we're
haters of all small, furry animals.

1934
02:01:05,008 --> 02:01:08,886
- [ Spectators Chuckle ]
- A creature that cannot talk
will be a welcome relief.

1935
02:01:08,970 --> 02:01:11,221
- Bring in the dog.
- [ Spectators Chuckling ]

1936
02:01:11,306 --> 02:01:15,851
Thank you, sir.
Will the, uh, deputy bring in the dog, please.

1937
02:01:28,990 --> 02:01:31,283
Uh, you can put him right there.

1938
02:01:32,452 --> 02:01:34,370
Fine.
Ηere, Muff! Here, Muff! Come on!

1939
02:01:34,454 --> 02:01:36,372
Come on! Come on! Come on! Come on!

1940
02:01:36,456 --> 02:01:38,457
That's a boy.

1941
02:01:39,125 --> 02:01:42,795
And now l'll ask Mrs. Manion
to bring a flashlight for the dog.

1942
02:01:53,848 --> 02:01:58,310
Now, l ask the court to notice
that the dog turned on the light.

1943
02:02:00,480 --> 02:02:02,815
[ Laughing ]

1944
02:02:07,320 --> 02:02:10,072
Well, it's easy to see that Muff
doesn't know who his enemies are.

1945
02:02:10,156 --> 02:02:12,282
- [ Laughing Continues ]
- Remove the dog, please.

1946
02:02:12,367 --> 02:02:14,284
- Yes, sir.
- The witness will resume the stand.

1947
02:02:14,369 --> 02:02:17,496
Ηere we go, Muff. All right.

1948
02:02:18,873 --> 02:02:23,127
Mrs. Manion, may l congratulate you
on your well-trained pet.

1949
02:02:23,211 --> 02:02:25,129
May l also say that l'm pleased to see...

1950
02:02:25,213 --> 02:02:28,465
you are not today
hiding your lovely hair under a hat.

1951
02:02:28,550 --> 02:02:32,469
Your Ηonor, is the assistant attorney general
from Lansing pitching woo...

1952
02:02:32,554 --> 02:02:34,847
or is he going to cross-examine?

1953
02:02:34,931 --> 02:02:36,473
Let's get on with it.

1954
02:02:36,558 --> 02:02:38,809
Mrs. Manion, what was your occupation
before you were married?

1955
02:02:38,893 --> 02:02:41,895
- Ηousewife.
- Oh, then you've been married before?

1956
02:02:41,980 --> 02:02:46,608
- Yes, once.
- l suppose your first husband, uh, died, hmm?

1957
02:02:46,693 --> 02:02:47,693
No.

1958
02:02:47,777 --> 02:02:50,320
Did you divorce your first husband
to marry Lieutenant Manion?

1959
02:02:50,405 --> 02:02:52,990
Your Honor, if counsel wants to know
the grounds for Mrs. Manion's divorce...

1960
02:02:53,074 --> 02:02:54,616
let him ask that question.

1961
02:02:54,701 --> 02:02:56,452
What were the grounds for divorce,
Mrs. Manion?

1962
02:02:56,536 --> 02:03:00,164
- Mental cruelty.
- Naturally. And how long after your divorce...

1963
02:03:00,248 --> 02:03:02,458
was it that you married
Lieutenant Manion?

1964
02:03:02,542 --> 02:03:04,251
Uh, l'm not sure.

1965
02:03:04,335 --> 02:03:07,337
May l refresh the witness's memory
for Mr. Dancer?

1966
02:03:07,422 --> 02:03:09,339
- By all means.
- l believe she told me...

1967
02:03:09,424 --> 02:03:12,843
that they were married
three days after the divorce.

1968
02:03:12,927 --> 02:03:15,179
Thank you, Mr. Biegler.
ls that correct, Mrs. Manion?

1969
02:03:15,263 --> 02:03:16,722
Yes.

1970
02:03:16,806 --> 02:03:19,433
Then unless yours
was a whirlwind courtship...

1971
02:03:19,517 --> 02:03:21,643
you must have known Lieutenant Manion
before your divorce.

1972
02:03:21,728 --> 02:03:23,687
- Did you?
- Yes.

1973
02:03:24,647 --> 02:03:28,358
Mrs. Manion, what is your - [ Clears Throat ]
religious affiliation?

1974
02:03:28,443 --> 02:03:30,360
[ Laura ]
l'm a Catholic.

1975
02:03:30,445 --> 02:03:33,739
- Catholic in good standing?
- Well, no. The divorce, you know.

1976
02:03:33,823 --> 02:03:36,700
You mean you were excommunicated
because of the divorce and remarriage?

1977
02:03:36,785 --> 02:03:37,910
Yes.

1978
02:03:38,495 --> 02:03:42,164
Mrs. Manion, wouldn't you say
that a Catholic who can blithely ignore...

1979
02:03:42,248 --> 02:03:44,708
one of the cardinal rules of her church...

1980
02:03:44,793 --> 02:03:48,045
could also easily ignore
an oath taken on one of its artifacts...

1981
02:03:48,129 --> 02:03:50,589
say, an oath taken on a rosary?

1982
02:03:51,800 --> 02:03:54,426
l-l-l don't think that's true.

1983
02:03:54,511 --> 02:03:57,888
But wouldn't you think there'd be some doubt
about the integrity of such a person?

1984
02:03:58,598 --> 02:04:00,599
l don't know. Uh -

1985
02:04:00,683 --> 02:04:03,227
All l know is the rosary
means something to me.

1986
02:04:03,770 --> 02:04:07,898
l see.
Well, l'll pass on to something else.

1987
02:04:07,982 --> 02:04:10,734
Mrs. Manion, you testified
that your husband came home late...

1988
02:04:10,819 --> 02:04:12,569
from his work
on the night of the shooting.

1989
02:04:12,654 --> 02:04:14,571
Were you a little angry about his being late?

1990
02:04:14,656 --> 02:04:16,907
Well, l-l - l guess l was a little put out.

1991
02:04:16,991 --> 02:04:19,910
- Did you have an argument?
- Not much. A little.

1992
02:04:19,994 --> 02:04:22,079
When you left the trailer to go to the inn...

1993
02:04:22,163 --> 02:04:24,039
did your husband know you were going?

1994
02:04:24,124 --> 02:04:25,624
Ηe was asleep.

1995
02:04:25,708 --> 02:04:27,751
Was part of your reason
for going without his knowledge...

1996
02:04:27,836 --> 02:04:30,129
because you were, uh, vexed?

1997
02:04:31,089 --> 02:04:34,258
Well, l-l'd been ironing all day and l -

1998
02:04:35,009 --> 02:04:38,095
- Yes, l guess that's true.
- Your Honor, the counsel has deliberately...

1999
02:04:38,179 --> 02:04:39,805
cut off my view of the witness.

2000
02:04:39,889 --> 02:04:41,390
l'm sorry, Mr. Biegler.

2001
02:04:41,474 --> 02:04:43,684
l wouldn't want to interfere
with your signals to Mrs. Manion.

2002
02:04:43,768 --> 02:04:46,103
l object to the implication
l was signaling the witness.

2003
02:04:46,187 --> 02:04:49,106
This is the shabbiest
courtroom trick l've ever seen.

2004
02:04:49,190 --> 02:04:51,108
You haven't lived, Mr. Biegler.

2005
02:04:51,192 --> 02:04:53,569
Your Ηonor, l ask the court
to rule on my objection.

2006
02:04:53,653 --> 02:04:55,946
Mr. Dancer, will you be careful
not to place yourself...

2007
02:04:56,030 --> 02:04:58,323
between Mr. Biegler and his witness.

2008
02:04:58,408 --> 02:05:01,952
Of course, Your Honor.
Anything else, Mr. Biegler?

2009
02:05:02,036 --> 02:05:03,954
You do it once more, l'll punt you...

2010
02:05:04,038 --> 02:05:06,582
all the way out into
the middle of Lake Superior.

2011
02:05:06,666 --> 02:05:10,002
- [ Spectators Laughing ]
- [ Judge Weaver ] Gentlemen, gentlemen.

2012
02:05:10,086 --> 02:05:12,379
This rowing has got to stop.

2013
02:05:12,463 --> 02:05:16,466
The next one of you that speaks out of turn
will have me to deal with.

2014
02:05:16,551 --> 02:05:18,677
Now get on with your cross-examination.

2015
02:05:18,761 --> 02:05:22,014
Would you have gone to the inn
if your husband had, uh, been awake?

2016
02:05:22,098 --> 02:05:25,517
- He probably would have gone with me.
- But would you have gone alone?

2017
02:05:25,602 --> 02:05:29,188
- Not if he didn't want me to.
- Would he have not wanted you to?

2018
02:05:29,856 --> 02:05:32,566
l'm not sure.
l - l don't know how to answer that.

2019
02:05:32,650 --> 02:05:34,693
Well, had you ever gone
to the Thunder Bay lnn...

2020
02:05:34,777 --> 02:05:37,905
or elsewhere in Thunder Bay
alone at night?

2021
02:05:38,406 --> 02:05:41,617
- Yes, sometimes.
- Did your husband know you were going?

2022
02:05:42,493 --> 02:05:44,661
Not always. He goes to sleep early and -

2023
02:05:44,746 --> 02:05:47,623
and sometimes l'm restless.

2024
02:05:47,707 --> 02:05:49,833
Where did you go on these occasions?

2025
02:05:49,918 --> 02:05:53,712
Oh, l'd take a walk by the lake
or went to the bingo place.

2026
02:05:53,796 --> 02:05:57,216
- Maybe to the inn.
- You ever go to meet another man?

2027
02:05:57,759 --> 02:06:00,010
No, l didn't. l never did that.

2028
02:06:00,553 --> 02:06:04,348
You mean to say, Mrs. Manion,
a lovely woman like yourself, attractive to men...

2029
02:06:04,432 --> 02:06:06,475
lonely, restless, that you never once -

2030
02:06:06,559 --> 02:06:09,519
Objection, Your Honor! The witness
has answered the question about other men.

2031
02:06:09,604 --> 02:06:12,356
Counsel is now making
a veiled suggestion to the jury.

2032
02:06:12,440 --> 02:06:14,524
l withdraw the question.

2033
02:06:14,609 --> 02:06:19,071
Now, Mrs. Manion, on these
occasional excursions into the night...

2034
02:06:19,155 --> 02:06:21,657
did you always go and return home alone?

2035
02:06:21,741 --> 02:06:23,283
Of course.

2036
02:06:23,368 --> 02:06:26,870
Mrs. Manion, you testified that the reason
you got into Barney Quill's car...

2037
02:06:26,955 --> 02:06:29,206
was because you were afraid
to go home alone.

2038
02:06:29,290 --> 02:06:31,458
Why were you so frightened
on this particular night?

2039
02:06:32,418 --> 02:06:36,004
l said that it was because he told me
bears had been seen around.

2040
02:06:36,589 --> 02:06:40,842
Was this the first time you'd heard that bears
came around Thunder Bay to pick up scraps?

2041
02:06:40,927 --> 02:06:43,262
- No.
- Had you seen the bears before?

2042
02:06:43,346 --> 02:06:44,513
Yes.

2043
02:06:44,597 --> 02:06:47,057
Oh, this was just the first time
you were afraid of them?

2044
02:06:47,141 --> 02:06:49,268
No, l was always afraid of them.

2045
02:06:49,352 --> 02:06:51,603
Oh, this was just the first time
you were enough afraid...

2046
02:06:51,688 --> 02:06:54,731
to allow a man to take you home
from one of your evening prowls?

2047
02:06:54,816 --> 02:06:58,402
Objection! The use of the word "prowl"
is meant to mislead the jury.

2048
02:06:58,486 --> 02:07:00,570
- [ Judge Weaver ] Sustained.
- l apologize.

2049
02:07:00,655 --> 02:07:04,658
Mrs. Manion, l didn't mean to imply
that you were a huntress.

2050
02:07:04,742 --> 02:07:06,702
Was this the first time
that you were enough afraid...

2051
02:07:06,786 --> 02:07:10,122
to allow a man to take you home
from one of your evening walks?

2052
02:07:10,832 --> 02:07:13,667
Well, it - it wasn't just that.

2053
02:07:13,751 --> 02:07:15,627
- lt was -
- Oh, come now, Mrs. Manion.

2054
02:07:15,712 --> 02:07:18,547
You should be able to answer that straight off.
That's a simple enough question.

2055
02:07:18,631 --> 02:07:20,799
Your Honor,
how can the witness answer straight off...

2056
02:07:20,883 --> 02:07:23,218
when the counsel keeps
interrupting the answer?

2057
02:07:23,303 --> 02:07:26,430
The witness seemed a little slow to me,
Mr. Biegler.

2058
02:07:26,514 --> 02:07:29,433
Ηowever, let her complete her answers
before you interrupt.

2059
02:07:29,517 --> 02:07:32,269
Of course, Your Honor.
ln any case, Mr. Biegler's objection...

2060
02:07:32,353 --> 02:07:35,230
has given Mrs. Manion sufficient time
to think of an answer to my question.

2061
02:07:35,315 --> 02:07:37,274
You've thought of one,
haven't you, Mrs. Manion?

2062
02:07:37,358 --> 02:07:40,610
What l was going to say
was that l didn't want to offend Mr. Quill...

2063
02:07:40,695 --> 02:07:43,947
by making him think
that l was afraid of him or didn't like him.

2064
02:07:44,032 --> 02:07:47,743
Ηe'd been very pleasant to my husband and me
when we'd been in his bar.

2065
02:07:47,827 --> 02:07:51,455
- That's very good, Mrs. Manion. Very good indeed.
- Your Ηonor, please.

2066
02:07:51,539 --> 02:07:55,959
The attorney for the People will reserve
his comments for the arguments.

2067
02:07:56,044 --> 02:07:58,503
l will ask you this question, Mrs. Manion.

2068
02:07:59,088 --> 02:08:04,217
Was this the first time you had been
in Barney Quill's car at night?

2069
02:08:07,180 --> 02:08:09,681
Mrs. Manion, did you hear the question?

2070
02:08:10,224 --> 02:08:11,808
Yes, l heard.

2071
02:08:12,560 --> 02:08:14,853
Yes, it was the first time.

2072
02:08:15,563 --> 02:08:18,398
Would you raise your voice a little,
Mrs. Manion?

2073
02:08:18,483 --> 02:08:21,193
[ Laura ]
l said it was the first time.

2074
02:08:22,278 --> 02:08:26,656
Now, Mrs. Manion,
l'm quite concerned about the lost panties.

2075
02:08:26,741 --> 02:08:29,534
Would you describe this article of clothing
to the court, please?

2076
02:08:31,329 --> 02:08:33,997
They were nylon
and had lace up the sides.

2077
02:08:34,082 --> 02:08:36,500
There was a label in them
of the place l got them -

2078
02:08:36,584 --> 02:08:38,502
the Smart Shop, in Phoenix, Arizona.

2079
02:08:38,586 --> 02:08:40,504
What was the color of the panties?

2080
02:08:40,588 --> 02:08:42,506
- l believe white.
- You believe?

2081
02:08:42,590 --> 02:08:45,509
- l have white and pink. They may have been pink.
- You're not sure?

2082
02:08:45,593 --> 02:08:48,470
Haven't you checked your lingerie
to see which pair of panties is missing?

2083
02:08:48,554 --> 02:08:49,554
No.

2084
02:08:49,639 --> 02:08:51,473
When your husband came home
late from his work...

2085
02:08:51,557 --> 02:08:54,851
and you had this little spat,
were you already dressed to go out?

2086
02:08:54,936 --> 02:08:56,770
- No.
- When did you dress?

2087
02:08:56,854 --> 02:08:58,563
After dinner, when he was asleep.

2088
02:08:58,648 --> 02:09:01,733
lt's been stated here that you were
bare legged in the bar. ls that true?

2089
02:09:01,818 --> 02:09:02,859
Yes.

2090
02:09:02,944 --> 02:09:05,695
ln your anger at your husband
and your haste to get out of the trailer...

2091
02:09:05,780 --> 02:09:07,906
- perhaps you didn't put on any panties either?
- Objection.

2092
02:09:07,990 --> 02:09:10,409
The witness has already testified
as to what she was wearing.

2093
02:09:10,493 --> 02:09:13,036
- [ Judge Weaver ] Sustained.
- Do you always wear panties, Mrs. Manion?

2094
02:09:13,121 --> 02:09:15,872
Now, Your Honor,
l object to this line of questioning.

2095
02:09:15,957 --> 02:09:18,834
lt's immaterial what
Mrs. Manion does all the time.

2096
02:09:18,918 --> 02:09:21,128
On the night she was attacked,
she was wearing panties...

2097
02:09:21,212 --> 02:09:22,838
and that's all we're concerned with.

2098
02:09:22,922 --> 02:09:25,382
Your Ηonor, Mrs. Manion seems
a little bit uncertain...

2099
02:09:25,466 --> 02:09:27,592
about what kind of panties she was wearing...

2100
02:09:27,677 --> 02:09:29,594
and since these panties have not been found...

2101
02:09:29,679 --> 02:09:33,432
l submit that it's possible
she wasn't wearing any and has forgotten.

2102
02:09:33,516 --> 02:09:36,935
- That's all l'm trying to get at.
- You may answer, Mrs. Manion.

2103
02:09:38,020 --> 02:09:40,272
Do you always wear panties?

2104
02:09:41,357 --> 02:09:43,024
No.

2105
02:09:43,109 --> 02:09:46,111
On what occasions don't you wear them?
When you go out alone at night?

2106
02:09:46,195 --> 02:09:50,115
Oh, no, no. Objection. Ηe says he's going after
one thing, then he goes after another.

2107
02:09:50,199 --> 02:09:52,075
l'll sustain the objection.

2108
02:09:52,160 --> 02:09:55,787
Strike out the last two questions
and Mrs. Manion's answer.

2109
02:09:55,872 --> 02:09:58,623
Now, Mr. Dancer, get off the panties.

2110
02:09:58,708 --> 02:10:02,294
- You've done enough damage.
- Yes, Your Honor.

2111
02:10:02,378 --> 02:10:06,298
Mrs. Manion, is your husband a jealous man?

2112
02:10:06,841 --> 02:10:09,968
- Ηe loves me.
- l'm sure of that, but is he excessively jealous?

2113
02:10:10,052 --> 02:10:12,804
Your Ηonor, how can the witness
answer that question?

2114
02:10:12,889 --> 02:10:14,973
What's the norm of jealousy?

2115
02:10:15,057 --> 02:10:18,059
Can you put your question a little differently,
Mr. Dancer?

2116
02:10:18,144 --> 02:10:20,187
Ηas your husband ever struck you
in a jealous rage?

2117
02:10:20,271 --> 02:10:24,357
No. Your Ηonor, l think Mr. Dancer's fishing now.
What's the relevancy of this question?

2118
02:10:24,442 --> 02:10:26,485
Your Ηonor,
the shoe is squeezing Mr. Biegler's foot.

2119
02:10:26,569 --> 02:10:28,778
ln his own words,
this is not a high school debate...

2120
02:10:28,863 --> 02:10:30,822
this is a cross-examination in a murder trial.

2121
02:10:30,907 --> 02:10:32,824
Proceed, Mr. Dancer.

2122
02:10:34,410 --> 02:10:36,161
Mrs. Manion...

2123
02:10:37,246 --> 02:10:40,332
did you ever go out socially
in Thunder Bay?

2124
02:10:40,416 --> 02:10:42,334
Yes, a few times.

2125
02:10:42,418 --> 02:10:44,503
When your husband's outfit
moved to Thunder Bay...

2126
02:10:44,587 --> 02:10:46,546
didn't Barney Quill throw a cocktail party...

2127
02:10:46,631 --> 02:10:49,007
- for the officers and their wives?
- Yes.

2128
02:10:49,091 --> 02:10:52,344
Didn't your husband strike
a young second lieutenant at this party?

2129
02:10:54,096 --> 02:10:56,389
There was a little scuffle. lt wasn't much.

2130
02:10:56,474 --> 02:10:59,476
- What was it about?
- l'm not sure l remember.

2131
02:10:59,560 --> 02:11:03,730
- Were you too drunk to remember?
- No, l was not.

2132
02:11:04,774 --> 02:11:07,651
l-l-l think it was because the lieutenant...

2133
02:11:07,735 --> 02:11:10,820
was cutting in too much
when l was dancing with my husband.

2134
02:11:10,905 --> 02:11:13,073
And shortly afterwards,
on the veranda of the inn...

2135
02:11:13,157 --> 02:11:16,493
didn't your husband slap you hard enough
so that you fell against the wall?

2136
02:11:17,703 --> 02:11:21,665
- Well, h-he was drinking.
- [ Dancer ] Wasn't this a jealous rage?

2137
02:11:22,416 --> 02:11:25,168
- l don't know!
- Do you remember why he struck you?

2138
02:11:25,253 --> 02:11:27,170
- Yes.
- Wasn't he enraged at you...

2139
02:11:27,255 --> 02:11:29,673
because he thought you'd encouraged
this young lieutenant?

2140
02:11:29,757 --> 02:11:31,675
Ηe might have thought so.

2141
02:11:31,759 --> 02:11:33,718
Mrs. Manion,
there are witnesses to this whole affair.

2142
02:11:33,803 --> 02:11:36,012
l'll ask you again. Wasn't this a jealous rage?

2143
02:11:36,097 --> 02:11:38,557
l guess you could call it that.

2144
02:11:39,767 --> 02:11:41,726
Now l'll ask you...

2145
02:11:43,437 --> 02:11:47,691
on the night of the shooting,
what did you swear?

2146
02:11:47,775 --> 02:11:50,235
What oath did you take on the rosary?

2147
02:11:51,279 --> 02:11:53,863
lt was about Barney Quill raping me.

2148
02:11:53,948 --> 02:11:56,992
Why did you swear on the rosary
that he raped you?

2149
02:11:57,535 --> 02:12:00,120
For the reason that my husband said -
because l was hysterical.

2150
02:12:00,204 --> 02:12:02,205
That was the reason he gave
for asking you to swear.

2151
02:12:02,290 --> 02:12:04,207
- What was your reason for swearing?
- So he'd believe me.

2152
02:12:04,292 --> 02:12:06,209
- Why shouldn't he believe you?
- Objection.

2153
02:12:06,294 --> 02:12:08,545
The reason for the use of the rosary
has been established.

2154
02:12:08,629 --> 02:12:13,800
- These questions are immaterial.
- No, l think l'll take the answer, Mr. Biegler.

2155
02:12:13,884 --> 02:12:15,719
l'll ask you again, Mrs. Manion.

2156
02:12:15,803 --> 02:12:17,929
Why shouldn't he believe you?

2157
02:12:19,265 --> 02:12:21,224
Because l wasn't making much sense.

2158
02:12:21,309 --> 02:12:23,351
Did he think you'd lie about a thing like that?

2159
02:12:23,436 --> 02:12:26,896
Objection, Your Ηonor! Lieutenant Manion
has already testified as to what he thought.

2160
02:12:26,981 --> 02:12:30,609
- Sustained.
- Did your husband strike you that night?

2161
02:12:31,277 --> 02:12:33,445
Did he hit you that night?

2162
02:12:35,698 --> 02:12:37,741
Well, he - he -

2163
02:12:37,825 --> 02:12:41,369
Ηe may have slapped me
because l was hysterical.

2164
02:12:41,454 --> 02:12:44,080
And didn't you swear to a lie to keep him
from hitting you again?

2165
02:12:44,165 --> 02:12:45,790
No! No, l didn't. l did not.

2166
02:12:45,875 --> 02:12:48,126
Hadn't he already beaten you up
at the gate when he caught you...

2167
02:12:48,210 --> 02:12:50,587
- coming home from lovers' lane with Barney Quill?
- Objection! Objection!

2168
02:12:50,671 --> 02:12:53,423
The witness has already testified
she was beaten by Barney Quill.

2169
02:12:53,507 --> 02:12:55,592
- [ Spectators Murmuring ]
- Quiet, quiet.

2170
02:12:55,676 --> 02:12:58,428
No more questions.

2171
02:12:58,512 --> 02:13:01,097
l think the witness has had enough,
Your Ηonor.

2172
02:13:01,182 --> 02:13:04,267
The witness may step down.
We'll recess for lunch.

2173
02:13:04,352 --> 02:13:06,436
[ Gavel Raps ]

2174
02:13:06,520 --> 02:13:08,772
[ Bailiff ]
Recess until 1 :00.

2176
02:13:11,484 --> 02:13:13,401
Sorry, baby. You were fine.

2177
02:13:13,486 --> 02:13:16,821
[ Bell Clanging ]

2178
02:13:46,894 --> 02:13:48,812
Dr. Smith?

2179
02:13:48,896 --> 02:13:50,814
l've come to meet you, sir.

2180
02:13:50,898 --> 02:13:53,316
- My name is -
- l'm sorry. You've made a mistake.

2181
02:13:53,401 --> 02:13:56,486
Maybe l'm the one you're looking for.
Are you Mr. Biegler?

2182
02:13:56,570 --> 02:13:58,905
No, l'm his associate in the case.

2183
02:13:59,448 --> 02:14:02,158
- Don't tell me you're Dr. Smith.
- That's me.

2184
02:14:02,243 --> 02:14:06,830
- The army psychiatrist?
- Maybe you expected me to be in uniform.

2185
02:14:06,914 --> 02:14:08,832
No. Well...

2186
02:14:08,916 --> 02:14:11,668
l didn't expect anybody so young.

2187
02:14:11,752 --> 02:14:13,670
l'm 40.

2188
02:14:13,754 --> 02:14:18,675
l sort of hoped you'd, uh, have a beard
and wear a monocle.

2189
02:14:18,759 --> 02:14:20,719
Oh, l see.

2190
02:14:21,345 --> 02:14:26,099
- That better?
- lt helps. You're on the stand this afternoon.

2191
02:14:28,602 --> 02:14:30,520
Doctor, have you formed an opinion...

2192
02:14:30,604 --> 02:14:32,522
as to Frederick Manion's
mental and emotional state...

2193
02:14:32,606 --> 02:14:34,524
at the time he killed Barney Quill?

2194
02:14:34,608 --> 02:14:36,526
- l have.
- And what is that opinion?

2195
02:14:36,610 --> 02:14:39,362
He was temporarily insane
at the time of the shooting.

2196
02:14:39,447 --> 02:14:41,364
At the time of the shooting, do you believe...

2197
02:14:41,449 --> 02:14:43,867
he was able to distinguish right from wrong?

2198
02:14:43,951 --> 02:14:46,870
Ηe may or may not have been.
lt doesn't make too much difference.

2199
02:14:46,954 --> 02:14:50,039
All right. Now, Doctor,
as clearly as you can...

2200
02:14:50,124 --> 02:14:54,002
will you explain Frederick Manion's
temporary insanity.

2201
02:14:54,086 --> 02:14:57,005
lt is known as dissociative reaction -

2202
02:14:57,089 --> 02:15:01,718
a psychic shock which creates
an almost overwhelming tension...

2203
02:15:01,802 --> 02:15:05,054
which the person in shock must alleviate.

2204
02:15:05,139 --> 02:15:07,557
ln Lieutenant Manion's case - a soldier -

2205
02:15:07,641 --> 02:15:10,393
it is only natural
that he would turn to action.

2206
02:15:10,478 --> 02:15:14,230
Only direct, simple action
against Barney Quill...

2207
02:15:14,315 --> 02:15:16,816
would relieve this unbearable tension.

2208
02:15:16,901 --> 02:15:20,028
This is not too uncommon.
For example, in combat...

2209
02:15:20,112 --> 02:15:23,490
some of the more remarkable heroics
take place in this state of mind.

2210
02:15:23,574 --> 02:15:27,702
ls there another name for dissociative reaction,
one we might be more likely to recognize?

2211
02:15:27,787 --> 02:15:31,122
Yes, it has been known
as "irresistible impulse."

2212
02:15:31,207 --> 02:15:34,250
Now, Doctor,
a man in the grip of irresistible impulse -

2213
02:15:34,335 --> 02:15:36,753
would he be likely
to go to his neighbor for advice...

2214
02:15:36,837 --> 02:15:39,714
or call up the police to come to his aid?

2215
02:15:39,799 --> 02:15:43,426
- Completely incompatible.
- Yes. But our man was able to think...

2216
02:15:43,511 --> 02:15:45,804
of going and taking out a gun and loading it...

2217
02:15:45,888 --> 02:15:47,889
before setting out to find Quill.

2218
02:15:47,973 --> 02:15:49,808
Well, that was his conscious mind working.

2219
02:15:49,892 --> 02:15:52,393
But if no gun had been available,
he would have gone anyway.

2220
02:15:52,478 --> 02:15:55,939
Ηow would a man look in the grip
of dissociative reaction?

2221
02:15:56,023 --> 02:16:00,276
Ηe might appear to be deadly calm,
fiercely deliberate.

2222
02:16:00,361 --> 02:16:03,321
Mm-hmm. Would you describe
his behavior as being...

2223
02:16:03,405 --> 02:16:05,865
like a mailman delivering the mail?

2224
02:16:05,950 --> 02:16:10,161
That's not bad. Like a mailman,
he would have a job to do, and he would do it.

2225
02:16:11,497 --> 02:16:12,580
Your witness.

2226
02:16:12,665 --> 02:16:16,584
Doctor, did you find any psychosis
in Frederick Manion?

2227
02:16:16,669 --> 02:16:17,877
l did not.

2228
02:16:17,962 --> 02:16:20,964
- [ Dancer ] Any neuroses?
- l found no history of neuroses.

2229

- [ Dancer ] Any history of, uh, delusion?
- None.

2230
02:16:24,718 --> 02:16:26,803
- Loss of memory?
- Not before this instance.

[ Whispering ]
Ηey. Can you spot Mary Pilant?

2232
02:16:31,392 --> 02:16:33,476
She didn't come back after lunch.

02:16:33,561 --> 02:16:36,312
l think you'd better give up on that one.

2234
02:16:36,397 --> 02:16:38,273
Doctor, you stated that the defendant...

2235
02:16:38,357 --> 02:16:42,277
might or might not have been able to distinguish
the difference between right and wrong...

2236
02:16:42,361 --> 02:16:43,987
but that it wouldn't have made
much difference.

2237
02:16:44,071 --> 02:16:46,447
- Am l right? ls that what you said?
- Approximately, yes.

2238
02:16:46,532 --> 02:16:48,449
Did you mean that at the time
of the shooting...

2239
02:16:48,534 --> 02:16:50,451
he could have known the difference
between right and wrong?

2240
02:16:50,536 --> 02:16:52,328
Ηe might have, yes.

2241
02:16:52,413 --> 02:16:57,000
Dr. Smith, if the defendant
could have known what he was doing...

2242
02:16:57,084 --> 02:16:59,002
and could have known that it was wrong...

2243
02:16:59,086 --> 02:17:02,130
how can you come here and testify
that he was legally insane?

2244
02:17:02,214 --> 02:17:04,299
l'm not saying he was legally insane.

2245
02:17:04,383 --> 02:17:06,301
l'm saying that in his mental condition...

2246
02:17:06,385 --> 02:17:08,970
it would not have made any difference
whether he knew right from wrong.

2247
02:17:09,054 --> 02:17:11,055
Ηe would still have shot Quill.

2248
02:17:12,099 --> 02:17:14,684
Dr. Smith, are you willing...

2249
02:17:14,768 --> 02:17:18,187
to rest your testimony
in this case on this opinion?

2250
02:17:18,272 --> 02:17:20,231
Yes, l am.

2251
02:17:21,442 --> 02:17:23,860
Your Ηonor, l'd like to ask for a short recess.

2252
02:17:23,944 --> 02:17:25,862
The attorneys for the People
would like to meet...

2253
02:17:25,946 --> 02:17:28,239
- with Mr. Biegler and the court in chambers.
- Mr. Biegler?

2254
02:17:28,824 --> 02:17:30,658
Glad to oblige, Your Ηonor.

2255
02:17:30,743 --> 02:17:33,745
Short recess. Jury will remain.

2256
02:17:45,299 --> 02:17:47,383
Someday l'm going to horrify tradition...

and lay a dense blue cloud of tobacco smoke
in that hallowed courtroom.

2258
02:17:53,307 --> 02:17:55,516
What's on your mind, Mr. Dancer?

2259
02:17:55,601 --> 02:17:57,518
Your Ηonor, in view of Dr. Smith's testimony...

2260
02:17:57,603 --> 02:18:00,063
l thought perhaps the defense might like
to change their plea.

2261
02:18:00,147 --> 02:18:02,899
- Change it to what?
- Guilty, of course.

2262
02:18:02,983 --> 02:18:05,735
- No, we'll still go for broke.
- Ηell, Polly.

2263
02:18:05,819 --> 02:18:08,071
You know a guy's not
considered legally nuts in Michigan...

2264
02:18:08,155 --> 02:18:10,073
unless he didn't know right from wrong.

2265
02:18:10,157 --> 02:18:14,535
- Why don't you come on and get this over with?
- Your Honor, would you turn to page 486?

2266
02:18:14,620 --> 02:18:16,245
[ Lodwick ]
What's that?

2267
02:18:16,330 --> 02:18:18,998
Appears to be a law book, Mr. Lodwick.

2268
02:18:20,334 --> 02:18:22,251
[ Chuckles ]
Oh, l'm sorry, Your Honor.

2269
02:18:22,336 --> 02:18:25,421
l make those things
to help me think sometimes.

2270
02:18:25,506 --> 02:18:27,840
- For perch?
- No, that one's for frog.

2271
02:18:27,925 --> 02:18:29,884
What case is he citing, Judge?

2272
02:18:29,969 --> 02:18:33,930
- We gig frogs down in my part of the country.
- Yeah, well, it's the same up here.

2273
02:18:34,014 --> 02:18:36,766
l'm a trout man myself,
but this is a new wrinkle l'm gonna try.

2274
02:18:36,850 --> 02:18:39,060
They do it a lot
down in the bayous down south.

2275
02:18:39,144 --> 02:18:41,062
The idea - they get a great big long pole...

2276
02:18:41,146 --> 02:18:45,650
and about a ten-pound line,
just sort of drift along a high bank in a boat.

2277
02:18:45,734 --> 02:18:48,611
Then you see that
great big old bullfrog in a crevice...

2278
02:18:48,696 --> 02:18:51,614
and you sort of float this along
in front of him.

2279
02:18:51,699 --> 02:18:54,617
Pop! That old tongue of his snaps out and -
[ Clicks Tongue ]

- You've got frog's legs for supper.
- Well, l'll be darned.

2281
02:18:57,371 --> 02:19:01,624
- Why don't you keep it? Try it sometime.
- Thanks. l will.

2282
02:19:01,709 --> 02:19:03,835
486.

2283
02:19:05,087 --> 02:19:09,424
- What is it, Your Honor?
- PeopIe versus Durfee, 1886.

2284
02:19:10,050 --> 02:19:11,801
Looks like a precedent.

2285
02:19:11,885 --> 02:19:14,262
Would you like to read it, Mr. Dancer?

2286
02:19:15,222 --> 02:19:17,140
No, thank you, Your Honor.

2287
02:19:17,224 --> 02:19:19,350
l think l recall the case.

2288
02:19:19,893 --> 02:19:24,355
We're, uh, hooked... like the frog.

2289
02:19:26,900 --> 02:19:30,486
[ Dancer ] Dr. Ηarcourt, where did you receive
your university training?

2290
02:19:30,571 --> 02:19:32,488
Johns Hopkins, in Baltimore, Maryland.

2291
02:19:32,573 --> 02:19:34,782
And where do you practice now?

2292
02:19:34,867 --> 02:19:38,494
l'm the medical superintendent
of the Bonder State Hospital for the lnsane.

2293
02:19:38,579 --> 02:19:43,666
lt's been stated here that dissociative reaction,
or irresistible impulse...

2294
02:19:43,751 --> 02:19:46,669
is not uncommon among soldiers in combat.

2295
02:19:46,754 --> 02:19:49,338
- Do you agree with that statement?
- l do...

2296
02:19:49,423 --> 02:19:51,340
but not as it was put by Dr. Smith.

2297
02:19:51,425 --> 02:19:55,344
- Where would you depart from Dr. Smith?
- Well, dissociative reaction...

2298
02:19:55,429 --> 02:19:59,348
is not something that comes out of the blue
and disappears as quickly.

2299
02:19:59,433 --> 02:20:03,519
lt can only occur -
even among soldiers in combat -

2300
02:20:03,604 --> 02:20:07,523
if the individual has
a psychoneurotic condition of long standing.

2301
02:20:07,608 --> 02:20:11,360
lt's been testified here that a psychiatric
examination of the defendant...

2302
02:20:11,445 --> 02:20:14,030
showed no, um, evidence of neuroses...

2303
02:20:14,114 --> 02:20:16,532
and no history of dissociative reaction.

2304
02:20:16,617 --> 02:20:18,534
You've further heard it testified...

2305
02:20:18,619 --> 02:20:23,372
that the defendant's behavior on the night
of the shooting was cool and direct.

2306
02:20:23,457 --> 02:20:27,043
- As an observer, do you remember this testimony?
- Yes.

2307
02:20:27,127 --> 02:20:29,045
From this, have you formed an opinion...

2308
02:20:29,129 --> 02:20:31,881
about the defendant's sanity
on the night of the shooting?

2309
02:20:31,965 --> 02:20:36,385
Yes. l'm of the opinion that he was
in sufficient possession of his faculties...

2310
02:20:36,470 --> 02:20:39,222
so that he was not dominated
by his unconscious mind.

2311
02:20:39,306 --> 02:20:42,892
ln other words,
he was not in the grip of irresistible impulse?

2312
02:20:42,976 --> 02:20:45,645
- ln my opinion, he was not.
- Thank you, Doctor. Your witness, Mr. Biegler.

2313
02:20:45,729 --> 02:20:48,731
Dr. Ηarcourt, psychiatry
is an effort to probe...

2314
02:20:48,816 --> 02:20:51,567
into the dark, undiscovered world of the mind.

2315
02:20:51,652 --> 02:20:55,071
And in there,
the world might be round, it could be square.

2316
02:20:55,155 --> 02:20:58,032
Your opinion could be wrong.
Dr. Smith's opinion could be right.

2317
02:20:58,117 --> 02:21:01,577
- lsn't that true?
- l'd be a poor doctor if l didn't agree with that...

2318
02:21:01,662 --> 02:21:05,081
but l believe my opinion to be right.

2319
02:21:05,165 --> 02:21:07,458
Now, do you think you might have
changed your opinion...

2320
02:21:07,543 --> 02:21:10,461
if you had examined the defendant,
as Dr. Smith did?

2321
02:21:11,130 --> 02:21:12,713
l don't believe so.

2322
02:21:12,798 --> 02:21:15,883
But Dr. Smith's opinion was made under
better circumstances, wasn't it?

2323
02:21:15,968 --> 02:21:19,011
lf you mean that he was able
to examine the man, yes.

2324
02:21:19,096 --> 02:21:20,930
Yeah. Well, thank you, Doctor.

2325
02:21:21,014 --> 02:21:24,267
That's all, Dr. Ηarcourt.
ls there more rebuttal?

2326
02:21:24,351 --> 02:21:26,602
We're over a barrel, Mitch.

2327
02:21:26,687 --> 02:21:28,813
We have to use him.

We call Duane Miller to the stand.

Will the sheriff please
bring in the witness?

2330
02:21:40,534 --> 02:21:42,493
What can he tell?

2331
02:21:43,203 --> 02:21:44,704
Nothing.

the testimony you shall give in this cause...

and nothing but the truth, so help you God?

- Would you state your name, please.
- Duane Miller.

- Most folks call me Duke.
- Where do you presently reside, Mr. Miller?

You know the defendant, Frederick Manion?

02:22:19,323 --> 02:22:22,742
Yeah, l got to know him in the past few weeks.
His cell's right next to mine.

2341
02:22:22,826 --> 02:22:25,244
When was the last conversation
you had with the lieutenant?

2342
02:22:25,329 --> 02:22:29,040
Except for "hello" this morning,
the last time was last night.

2343
02:22:29,124 --> 02:22:32,543
- Did you discuss his trial last night?
- Yeah, some.

2344
02:22:32,628 --> 02:22:35,880
Would you tell the court what Lieutenant Manion
had to say about the trial?

2345
02:22:35,964 --> 02:22:39,550
Well, l said, uh,
"Things looking up, Lieutenant?"

2346
02:22:39,635 --> 02:22:42,553
And he said, "l got it made, buster."

2347

l fooled that headshrinker.

of corn cobbers on the jury."

l apologize for my client, Your Honor.

2353
02:23:00,447 --> 02:23:02,365
Yet his outburst is almost excusable...

2354
02:23:02,449 --> 02:23:05,368
since the prosecution
has seen fit to put a felon on the stand...

2355
02:23:05,452 --> 02:23:07,745
to testify against an officer
in the United States Army.

2356

Your Honor, l don't know who is
the worse offender, Manion or his lawyer.

and courtesy for these last few hours.

your interrogation without comment.

Mr. Biegler, you will not
sound off at every opportunity...

2361
02:23:28,475 --> 02:23:31,560
and the defendant will remain seated
in his chair and keep his mouth shut.

- Now go ahead.
- Mr. Miller...

2363

are you certain that Lieutenant Manion said...

- "l've got it made, buster"?
- That's what he said.

Mr. Miller,
did Lieutenant Manion say anything else?

2366

Yes, sir. He said when he got out...

2367

the first thing he was gonna do was
to kick that bitch from here to kingdom come.

once for larceny.

2382

short stretches in four city jails...

- Taking who to his office?

- Us prisoners in the jail.
- He take you all at once, or one at a time?

02:25:04,237 --> 02:25:06,989
and asked us questions
about Lieutenant Manion.

2394
02:25:07,074 --> 02:25:09,408
Were you promised a lighter sentence
if you came over here...

2395
02:25:09,493 --> 02:25:12,119
- and went on the witness stand?
- [ Dancer ] Your Honor, the People object -

2396
02:25:12,204 --> 02:25:13,829
Overruled. Answer the question.

2397
02:25:13,914 --> 02:25:15,831
- l wasn't promised anything.
- Oh, you just thought...

2398
02:25:15,916 --> 02:25:19,502
it would help your own troubles
if you dreamed up this story to please the D.A.?

2399
02:25:19,586 --> 02:25:22,505
- l didn't dream up nothin'.
- You're sure that's what Lieutenant Manion said?

2400
02:25:22,589 --> 02:25:25,841
- Yeah, l'm sure.
- Just as sure as you were
about your criminal record?

2401
02:25:25,926 --> 02:25:29,053
Well, l guess l kind of goofed on that one.

2402
02:25:30,931 --> 02:25:36,185
Your Honor, l don't feel l can dignify
this creature with any more questions.

2403
02:25:36,269 --> 02:25:38,312
Take the witness away.

2404
02:25:38,397 --> 02:25:40,856
Mr. Biegler, would you
like a conference with your client?

2405
02:25:40,941 --> 02:25:44,026
l can see how the last witness
was quite a surprise.

2406
02:25:44,111 --> 02:25:46,529
No, Your Ηonor.
We don't need a conference.

2407
02:25:46,613 --> 02:25:49,407
l'll recall Lieutenant Manion
to the stand right now.

2408
02:25:57,457 --> 02:26:00,918
Now you've heard the testimony of this Miller.

2409
02:26:01,628 --> 02:26:03,379
ls any part of it true?

2410
02:26:03,463 --> 02:26:04,964
None.

2411
02:26:05,465 --> 02:26:09,969
Lieutenant, do you have any idea
why he might come here with a tale like that?

2412
02:26:10,053 --> 02:26:11,595
No, sir.

2413
02:26:13,306 --> 02:26:15,558
Ηave you ever talked with this man?

2414
02:26:15,642 --> 02:26:17,059
Yes.

2415
02:26:17,602 --> 02:26:19,353
And what did you talk about?

2416
02:26:21,314 --> 02:26:23,399
Nothing important.

2417
02:26:23,483 --> 02:26:27,278
Certainly nothing -
nothing about my personal life or my feelings.

2418
02:26:27,988 --> 02:26:29,572
That's all l wanted to know.

2419
02:26:29,656 --> 02:26:31,323
Lieutenant Manion...

2420
02:26:32,325 --> 02:26:35,244
have you ever had any sort of...

2421
02:26:35,328 --> 02:26:37,788
trouble with, uh, Miller?

2422
02:26:38,748 --> 02:26:41,542
l don't know. What do you mean?
An argument? Something like that?

2423
02:26:41,626 --> 02:26:46,130
Well, did you ever, um, attack Miller -
physically attack him?

2424
02:26:46,756 --> 02:26:49,300
Your lawyer can't answer the question for you,
Lieutenant.

2425
02:26:49,384 --> 02:26:51,302
Did you ever physically attack Miller?

2426
02:26:51,386 --> 02:26:53,971
Well, l wouldn't call it an attack exactly.

2427
02:26:54,055 --> 02:26:57,141
- l pushed his head against the bars one day.
- Why?

2428
02:26:57,225 --> 02:26:59,310
Ηe said something ugly about my wife.

2429
02:26:59,394 --> 02:27:03,022
And do you remember, uh,
pushing or bumping his head against the bars?

2430
02:27:03,106 --> 02:27:05,274
Well, sure. l just told you.

2431
02:27:05,358 --> 02:27:07,651
Then this was not dissociative reaction?

2432
02:27:07,736 --> 02:27:10,488
- The defendant isn't qualified to answer that.
- [ Judge Weaver ] Sustained.

2433
02:27:10,572 --> 02:27:14,325
Lieutenant Manion,
wasn't your action against Barney Quill...

2434
02:27:14,409 --> 02:27:16,327
much the same as your action against Miller...

2435
02:27:16,411 --> 02:27:19,997
and against the lieutenant
that you struck at the cocktail party -

2436
02:27:20,081 --> 02:27:24,502
all in the heat of anger, with a willful,
conscious desire to hurt or kill?

2437
02:27:24,586 --> 02:27:27,171
l don't remember my action against Quill.

2438
02:27:28,256 --> 02:27:31,842
Ηow long had you known your wife
was running around with Barney Quill?

2439
02:27:33,261 --> 02:27:35,262
l never knew anything like that.

2440
02:27:36,223 --> 02:27:37,848
l trust my wife.

2441
02:27:38,683 --> 02:27:41,519
l suppose you just beat her up occasionally
just for the fun of it.

2442
02:27:41,603 --> 02:27:45,022
Nothing has been established
to permit a question like that.

2443
02:27:45,106 --> 02:27:47,358
Ηe keeps implying things
without ever getting to the point.

2444
02:27:47,442 --> 02:27:50,694
Let him ask the lieutenant,
did he ever beat his wife.

2445
02:27:50,779 --> 02:27:52,738
[ Judge Weaver ]
l'll sustain the objection.

2446
02:27:52,822 --> 02:27:55,699
Would you like to rephrase
your question, Mr. Dancer?

2447
02:27:56,952 --> 02:27:58,869
No, thank you, Your Honor.

2448
02:27:59,454 --> 02:28:01,372
l've finished.

2449
02:28:01,456 --> 02:28:05,459
Well, then l'll ask him. Did you,
Lieutenant Manion, ever beat your wife -

2450
02:28:05,544 --> 02:28:07,795
on the night of the shooting,
or at any other time?

2451
02:28:07,879 --> 02:28:09,880
- No, sir.
- ls there any doubt in your mind...

2452
02:28:09,965 --> 02:28:12,258
that Barney Quill raped Mrs. Manion?

2453
02:28:12,342 --> 02:28:13,801
- No, sir.
- That's all.

2454
02:28:13,885 --> 02:28:15,886
Step down, Lieutenant.

2455
02:28:22,060 --> 02:28:24,562
- Are we hurt?
- We're hurt bad.

2456
02:28:24,646 --> 02:28:26,564
[ Whispering ]
Paul.

2457
02:28:26,648 --> 02:28:28,566
[ Whispering ]

2458
02:28:30,151 --> 02:28:32,111
Your Ηonor, l know time is very pressing.

2459
02:28:32,195 --> 02:28:34,113
l don't want to ask for a recess.

2460
02:28:34,197 --> 02:28:36,240
l would like to leave
the courtroom for a moment.

2461
02:28:36,324 --> 02:28:38,909
lf it's important,
we can be at ease for a minute.

2462
02:28:38,994 --> 02:28:40,494
Thank you, sir.

2463
02:28:41,663 --> 02:28:43,914
This is highly irregular, Your Ηonor.

2464
02:28:43,999 --> 02:28:47,084
Well, there's no reason
to make a federal case out of it.

2465
02:28:57,971 --> 02:28:59,888
Thank you very much, Your Honor.

2466
02:28:59,973 --> 02:29:02,057
We now have another rebuttal witness.

2467
02:29:02,142 --> 02:29:04,226
The defense calls Mary Pilant to the stand.

2468
02:29:04,311 --> 02:29:06,395
Your Ηonor, we must protest this whole affair.

2469
02:29:06,479 --> 02:29:09,398
The noble defense attorney
rushes out to a secret conference...

2470
02:29:09,482 --> 02:29:12,526
and now the last-minute witness is being
brought dramatically down the aisle.

2471
02:29:12,611 --> 02:29:15,863
The whole thing has obviously been rigged
to unduly excite the jury.

2472
02:29:15,947 --> 02:29:18,073
lt's just another one
of Mr. Biegler's cornball tricks.

2473
02:29:18,158 --> 02:29:21,410
Your Ηonor, l don't blame
Mr. Dancer for feeling put upon.

2474
02:29:21,494 --> 02:29:24,413
l'm just a humble country lawyer
trying to do the best l can...

2475
02:29:24,497 --> 02:29:28,125
against this brilliant prosecutor
from the big city of Lansing.

2476
02:29:28,209 --> 02:29:29,960
Swear the witness.

2477
02:29:30,503 --> 02:29:32,421
Raise your right hand, please.

2478
02:29:32,505 --> 02:29:34,923
You do solemnly swear
the testimony you shall give in this cause...

2479
02:29:35,008 --> 02:29:38,427
shall be the truth, the whole truth
and nothing but the truth, so help you God?

2480
02:29:38,511 --> 02:29:40,471
- l do.
- Sit down, please.

2481
02:29:43,224 --> 02:29:44,933
Where do you live, Miss Pilant?

2482
02:29:45,018 --> 02:29:46,894
At the Thunder Bay lnn, in Thunder Bay.

2483
02:29:46,978 --> 02:29:50,105
- And how long have you lived there?
- For two years.

2484
02:29:50,190 --> 02:29:53,025
- And what's your profession?
- l manage the inn.

2485
02:29:53,109 --> 02:29:57,613
Now, Miss Pilant, how is the laundry
handled at Thunder Bay lnn?

2486
02:29:57,697 --> 02:29:59,615
lt's chuted down to the laundry room.

2487
02:29:59,699 --> 02:30:02,451
Where is the location of that chute
on the second floor?

2488
02:30:02,535 --> 02:30:06,121
- Between room 42 and 43.
- Who lives in those rooms?

2489
02:30:06,206 --> 02:30:09,958
l live in 42. Mr. Quill lived in 43.

2490
02:30:10,043 --> 02:30:12,628
Now, would Mr. Quill,
coming up from the lobby...

2491
02:30:12,712 --> 02:30:16,757
have to pass by the mouth of that chute
on the way to his room?

2492
02:30:16,841 --> 02:30:17,508
Yes.

2493
02:30:17,592 --> 02:30:21,095
Would it be very easy for him to drop something
into that chute as he passed by?

2494
02:30:21,179 --> 02:30:22,137
Yes.

2495
02:30:22,222 --> 02:30:25,891
Ηave you ever had occasion to go down
into the laundry at any time?

2496
02:30:25,975 --> 02:30:29,520
Yes. Part of my job is to sort
various pieces of laundry...

2497
02:30:29,604 --> 02:30:31,980
as they come out of
the wash-and-dry machine.

2498
02:30:32,065 --> 02:30:33,982
Would you tell the court what you found...

2499
02:30:34,067 --> 02:30:37,486
among those pieces of laundry
on the day after Mr. Quill was killed?

2500
02:30:37,570 --> 02:30:39,822
l found a pair of women's panties.

2501
02:30:39,906 --> 02:30:43,200
- What did you do with them?
- l threw them in the rag bin.

2502
02:30:43,284 --> 02:30:46,662
When did you learn
the significance of those panties?

2503
02:30:46,746 --> 02:30:49,123
Ηere. This morning in the courtroom.

2504
02:30:49,207 --> 02:30:51,834
And then you went home
and got them out of the rag bin?

2505
02:30:51,918 --> 02:30:53,669
- Yes.
- Did you bring them with you?

2506
02:30:53,753 --> 02:30:55,254
Yes.

2507
02:30:57,257 --> 02:31:00,676
l offer this article of lingerie...

2508
02:31:00,760 --> 02:31:03,178
as exhibit number one for the defense.

2509
02:31:03,263 --> 02:31:06,890
They're white,
they have lace up the side...

2510
02:31:07,934 --> 02:31:09,852
and they're badly torn...

2511
02:31:09,936 --> 02:31:13,689
as if they'd been ripped apart
by powerful hands.

2512
02:31:13,773 --> 02:31:15,733
The label reads...

2513
02:31:16,943 --> 02:31:19,945
"Smart Shop, Phoenix, Arizona."

2514
02:31:20,029 --> 02:31:23,282
lf there is no objection,
the exhibit will be received in evidence.

2515
02:31:23,366 --> 02:31:24,366
That's all, Miss Pilant.

2516
02:31:24,451 --> 02:31:27,786
Did you ever talk to Mr. Lodwick, the prosecuting
attorney, about the death of Barney Quill?

2517
02:31:27,871 --> 02:31:31,290
Yes. Ηe came to the hotel several times
after Mr. Quill was killed.

2518
02:31:31,374 --> 02:31:34,710
Did you tell Mr. Lodwick that you didn't believe
Barney Quill had raped Mrs. Manion?

2519
02:31:34,794 --> 02:31:36,837
- Yes, l told him that.
- Now, Miss Pilant...

2520
02:31:36,921 --> 02:31:39,047
did you ever talk to Mr. Biegler,
the defense attorney?

2521
02:31:39,132 --> 02:31:39,840
Yes.

2522
02:31:39,924 --> 02:31:42,259
- Was this also in connection
with the shooting of Quill?
- Yes.

2523
02:31:42,343 --> 02:31:44,845
Did you tell him you didn't believe
Barney Quill had raped Mrs. Manion?

2524
02:31:44,929 --> 02:31:46,889
- Yes.
- How many times did you talk to Mr. Biegler?

2525
02:31:46,973 --> 02:31:48,891
- Twice.
- When was the last time?

2526
02:31:48,975 --> 02:31:51,393
- Last night.
- And have you now changed your mind?

2527
02:31:51,478 --> 02:31:54,062
Do you now believe
Barney Quill raped Mrs. Manion?

2528
02:31:54,147 --> 02:31:56,732
l - l don't know now.
l think he might have.

2529
02:31:56,816 --> 02:31:58,734
When did you change your mind?
Last night?

2530
02:31:58,818 --> 02:32:00,736
No. No, it was here, this morning.

2531
02:32:00,820 --> 02:32:02,863
When were you given the panties?
Was that last night?

2532
02:32:02,947 --> 02:32:07,201
- Now wait a minute! Now just wait a minute.
- Use the proper form of objection, Mr. Biegler.

2533
02:32:07,285 --> 02:32:09,244
No, on second thought,
l don't object, Your Honor.

2534
02:32:09,329 --> 02:32:11,371
l'd like the jury to hear her answer.

2535
02:32:11,456 --> 02:32:13,749
- The witness may answer.
- No.

2536
02:32:13,833 --> 02:32:16,460
l was not given the panties,
last night or at any other time.

2537
02:32:16,544 --> 02:32:18,504
l found them exactly as l said.

2538
02:32:18,588 --> 02:32:21,590
Do you know for a fact that Barney Quill
dropped the panties down the chute...

2539
02:32:21,674 --> 02:32:23,592
- or did you just assume it?
- l assumed it.

2540
02:32:23,676 --> 02:32:26,303
Ηad you thought that perhaps
someone else might have put the panties there -

2541
02:32:26,387 --> 02:32:29,264
- someone who wanted them found in the laundry?
- l hadn't thought of that.

2542
02:32:29,349 --> 02:32:33,769
Mm-hmm. And in the grip of what Mr. Biegler
might call irresistible impulse...

2543
02:32:33,853 --> 02:32:35,771
you rushed in here with the panties...

2544
02:32:35,855 --> 02:32:38,273
because you wanted to crucify the character
of the dead Barney Quill.

2545
02:32:38,358 --> 02:32:40,442
- lsn't that true?
- No. l thought it was my duty.

2546
02:32:40,527 --> 02:32:43,403
- Your pride was hurt, wasn't it?
- l don't know what you mean.

2547
02:32:43,488 --> 02:32:45,364
Your Ηonor, he's trying to confuse the witness.

2548
02:32:45,448 --> 02:32:47,699
Let him ask her a question she can understand.

2549
02:32:47,784 --> 02:32:51,662
Yes, Mr. Dancer, l myself
would like to know what you're driving at.

2550
02:32:51,746 --> 02:32:54,998
Miss Pilant, when you found the panties...

2551
02:32:55,083 --> 02:32:58,669
was your first thought that Barney Quill
might have raped Mrs. Manion...
