Previously on boston legal...
2
00:00:01,240 --> 00:00:02,440
I'm no psychologist,
3
00:00:02,450 --> 00:00:05,630
but I believe the best way to
relieve anxiety is to talk about it.
4
00:00:05,640 --> 00:00:06,400
Humperdinck.
5
00:00:06,410 --> 00:00:07,910
Clearly I make you uncomfortable.
6
00:00:07,920 --> 00:00:08,600
What is it?
7
00:00:08,610 --> 00:00:11,440
Mr.Washington,you were
convicted of rape in 1985?
8
00:00:11,450 --> 00:00:12,940
Date rape,and I was innocent.
9
00:00:12,950 --> 00:00:14,170
You were convicted,yes or no?
10
00:00:14,180 --> 00:00:15,390
She was my girlfriend.
11
00:00:15,400 --> 00:00:16,490
She was 16.
12
00:00:16,500 --> 00:00:18,320
I was 17. And she was white.
13
00:00:18,330 --> 00:00:20,940
She claimed that I
raped her,but I did not.
14
00:00:20,950 --> 00:00:23,270
So you were convicted of rape.
15
00:00:23,280 --> 00:00:25,130
In review,didn't do this one.
16
00:00:25,140 --> 00:00:27,010
You were framed. You
didn't commit the rape.
17
00:00:27,020 --> 00:00:27,950
The victim made it up.
18
00:00:27,960 --> 00:00:30,600
I am innocent of this crime.
19
00:00:47,200 --> 00:00:49,280
I'm looking for alan shore.
20
00:00:50,060 --> 00:00:50,840
It's important.
21
00:00:50,850 --> 00:00:53,090
- Is he expecting you?
- No.
22
00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:56,100
May I tell him what this is regarding?
23
00:00:56,110 --> 00:00:57,660
No.
24
00:00:58,370 --> 00:01:00,940
Okay. Just a minute.I'll...
25
00:01:08,350 --> 00:01:08,940
okay.
26
00:01:08,950 --> 00:01:10,900
Thank you for agreeing to see me.
27
00:01:10,910 --> 00:01:15,180
Well,my assistant said
it,uh,was some sort of emergency.
28
00:01:15,190 --> 00:01:18,040
Yes,my daughter was murdered.
29
00:01:20,750 --> 00:01:22,580
I'm very sorry.
30
00:01:22,960 --> 00:01:27,380
The man who murdered her was found not
guilty by reason of temporary insanity.
31
00:01:27,390 --> 00:01:30,580
He's a man of means
with skilled attorneys.
32
00:01:32,890 --> 00:01:35,940
And how exactly can I help you?
33
00:01:35,950 --> 00:01:40,750
I would like to kill this man and be found
not guilty by reason of temporary insanity.
34
00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:45,870
I would like you to advise me as to what legal
steps I must take in order to accomplish this.
35
00:01:48,130 --> 00:01:50,890
Uh,ms.Kelly,I don't know
what you've heard about me,
36
00:01:50,900 --> 00:01:55,990
but I certainly would not
and could not advise a person
37
00:01:56,000 --> 00:01:59,500
on how to...get away with murder.
38
00:01:59,510 --> 00:02:01,250
Why not?
39
00:02:01,850 --> 00:02:04,430
Well,because that would me
a conspirator,for starters,
40
00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:09,550
and personally,I'm not a
great believer in murdering.
41
00:02:11,210 --> 00:02:12,860
Let me start over.
42
00:02:12,870 --> 00:02:14,400
I have decided to write a novel.
43
00:02:14,410 --> 00:02:18,800
It's about a woman who kills a man and
is acquitted on grounds of insanity.
44
00:02:18,810 --> 00:02:20,840
I would like to hire
you as a consultant.
45
00:02:20,850 --> 00:02:26,690
What legal steps must my protagonist
take in order to accomplish this?
46
00:02:27,260 --> 00:02:29,660
You cannot be serious.
47
00:02:31,740 --> 00:02:34,660
On a positive note,I can tell
you-- for what it's worth--
48
00:02:34,670 --> 00:02:36,540
you seem totally insane.
49
00:02:36,550 --> 00:02:37,940
Thank you.
50
00:02:37,950 --> 00:02:40,510
How best do i legally establish that?
51
00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:42,930
I need to know exactly.
52
00:02:43,950 --> 00:02:47,800
Ms.Kelly,my advice to
you... would be to forget it.
53
00:02:47,810 --> 00:02:50,110
By virtue of the fact
that you've come here,
54
00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:55,980
you've demonstrated that you understand
the nature and quality of the act.
55
00:02:56,470 --> 00:03:01,690
As for legal insanity,you don't qualify.
56
00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:08,780
I'm disappointed.

60
00:03:50,710 --> 00:03:52,620
Here it is right here.
61
00:03:53,610 --> 00:03:56,820
Hannah kelly,age 22,bludgeoned to death.
62
00:03:56,830 --> 00:04:00,170
Sean harmon--acquitted.
Temporary insanity.
63
00:04:00,180 --> 00:04:02,350
It all happened a month ago.
64
00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:04,540
Do you think this woman
really plans to kill him?
65
00:04:04,550 --> 00:04:06,300
I don't know.
66
00:04:06,310 --> 00:04:08,620
She was so odd.
67
00:04:08,630 --> 00:04:10,840
I couldn't get a read on her.
68
00:04:10,850 --> 00:04:13,310
I wonder if I should call the police.
69
00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:14,720
How did she leave it?
70
00:04:14,730 --> 00:04:16,070
I'm not sure.
71
00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:19,190
I think I dissuaded her. But...
72
00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:21,690
- I'm not sure.
- Alan.
73
00:04:22,590 --> 00:04:25,030
I was wondering whether we
might discuss your word salad.
74
00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:27,180
Maybe later,over drinks?
75
00:04:34,610 --> 00:04:36,850
It looks more like a
courthouse than a jail.
76
00:04:36,860 --> 00:04:39,550
Look. The police department
is part of the courthouse.
77
00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:41,900
- Saves time,I suppose.
- Yeah.
78
00:04:46,300 --> 00:04:47,470
Hold on.
79
00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:49,610
Hello,my name is katie
lloyd. I'm an attorney.
80
00:04:49,620 --> 00:04:52,140
I called ahead. This is my
colleague jerry espenson.
81
00:04:52,150 --> 00:04:54,460
I believe you're holding my client.
82
00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:04,720
It reminds me a little
of mayberry R.F.D.
83
00:05:04,730 --> 00:05:06,520
Where is that?
84
00:05:08,390 --> 00:05:10,640
Hello,joseph.
85
00:05:11,260 --> 00:05:12,850
May we go in?
86
00:05:12,860 --> 00:05:15,890
- Inside,with him?
- Please.
87
00:05:23,420 --> 00:05:25,070
give a yell when you're done.
88
00:05:26,250 --> 00:05:27,670
Why were you arrested?
89
00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:29,410
For driving a car.
90
00:05:29,420 --> 00:05:34,530
Evidently,it's a crime for registered sex offenders to
operate motor vehicles within the middletown town borders.
91
00:05:34,540 --> 00:05:35,460
Beg your pardon?
92
00:05:35,470 --> 00:05:37,120
they passed it last night.
93
00:05:37,130 --> 00:05:39,050
Because of my prior rape conviction,
94
00:05:39,060 --> 00:05:42,930
I had to register here as
a sex offender,which I did.
95
00:05:42,940 --> 00:05:46,240
My job is here-- the
only job I could get.
96
00:05:46,250 --> 00:05:49,730
The people here been harassing
me ever since I registered.
97
00:05:49,740 --> 00:05:51,740
My landlord evicted me.
98
00:05:51,750 --> 00:05:54,420
I been banned from
public transportation.
99
00:05:54,430 --> 00:05:56,250
Now this.
100
00:05:56,890 --> 00:05:59,090
Sounds like you're not wanted.
101
00:05:59,100 --> 00:06:02,000
Maybe you should blow
this terrible town.
102
00:06:02,010 --> 00:06:04,360
I would if I were you.
103
00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:15,320
It's so unfair what's
being done to him,shirley.
104
00:06:15,330 --> 00:06:17,280
He was trying to make
a new life for himself.
105
00:06:17,290 --> 00:06:20,990
It's hard enough for an ex-con without
an entire town conspiring against you.
106
00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:22,880
He was so excited to get this job,
107
00:06:22,890 --> 00:06:26,270
and they've essentially passed an
ordinance overnight to run him out.
108
00:06:26,280 --> 00:06:27,950
How much time are we talking about here?
109
00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:29,100
His arraignment's at 11:00.
110
00:06:29,110 --> 00:06:31,060
I'd at least like to
get him out of jail.
111
00:06:31,070 --> 00:06:34,930
Shirley,there are many words to
describe you,but compassionate--
112
00:06:34,940 --> 00:06:37,140
cut the crap,jerry.
113
00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:42,540
you can handle his arraignment,then
it's back to work for us.
114
00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:49,200
hey,alan,did you report
that woman to the police yet?
115
00:06:49,210 --> 00:06:51,320
No. I still can't
decide whether I should.
116
00:06:51,330 --> 00:06:51,970
Would you?
117
00:06:51,980 --> 00:06:53,450
Well,probably not.
118
00:06:53,460 --> 00:06:54,130
Why not?
119
00:06:54,140 --> 00:06:56,670
Because she already killed him.
120
00:06:57,900 --> 00:07:00,710
The information is still coming
in,but what we have learned--
121
00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:03,310
the shooter has been
identified as patrice kelly.
122
00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:06,080
If you recall,it was
ms.Kelly's daughter hannah kelly
123
00:07:06,090 --> 00:07:09,050
who was bludgeoned to death with
a vodka bottle by sean harmon,
124
00:07:09,060 --> 00:07:10,650
the man who was shot today.
125
00:07:10,660 --> 00:07:11,840
We are getting confirmation that
126
00:07:11,850 --> 00:07:15,130
mr.Harmon is dead from a single
gunshot wound to the head.
127
00:07:15,140 --> 00:07:16,200
As many
of you--
128
00:07:16,210 --> 00:07:18,790
okay,first thing--
get her into rehab.
129
00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:20,450
You want to put out a statement.
130
00:07:20,460 --> 00:07:21,260
I feel sick.
131
00:07:21,270 --> 00:07:24,660
Stay away from anything too
controversial,like rutgers' basketball.
132
00:07:24,670 --> 00:07:25,890
Denny,I should've prevented this.
133
00:07:25,900 --> 00:07:28,320
I could've prevented this.
134
00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:31,040
alan,you have a call from patrice kelly.
135
00:07:31,050 --> 00:07:33,380
She says you'll know
what it's regarding.
136
00:07:33,570 --> 00:07:35,940
Boy,it's exciting being you.
137
00:07:44,970 --> 00:07:47,450
They passed a law
criminalizing his driving a car?
138
00:07:47,460 --> 00:07:48,760
Yes,your honor,last night.
139
00:07:48,770 --> 00:07:50,930
They then arrested him
today,affording no notice--
140
00:07:50,940 --> 00:07:52,450
he was also arrested for assault.
141
00:07:52,460 --> 00:07:55,500
- The suspect became violent with officers when they
tried-- - the suspecwas simply told to get out of the car,
142
00:07:55,510 --> 00:07:58,190
and when he complied,he was thrown
against the hood,handcuffed--
143
00:07:58,200 --> 00:08:01,590
- anyone subject to a stop can be handc-- - he was
not told the nature of this ridiculous infraction,
144
00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:02,530
nor was he
informed--
145
00:08:02,540 --> 00:08:04,080
maybe when counsel has
children of her own,
146
00:08:04,090 --> 00:08:07,200
she ght see the rationale in discouraging
sex offenders from prowling neighborhoods.
147
00:08:07,210 --> 00:08:08,480
He was not prowling,your honor.
148
00:08:08,490 --> 00:08:10,370
He was driving to his
place of employment.
149
00:08:10,380 --> 00:08:12,320
Uh,save your breath,ms.Lloyd.
150
00:08:12,330 --> 00:08:15,150
The charges against
mr.Washington are dismissed.
151
00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:16,310
Thank you,your honor.
152
00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:19,220
Might you also strike down this
capricious ordinance on the grounds--
153
00:08:19,230 --> 00:08:21,310
I'm sorry,ms.Lloyd. I can't do that.
154
00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:23,430
Towns have a right
to protect themselves,
155
00:08:23,440 --> 00:08:25,860
and mr.Washington is a
registered sex offender.
156
00:08:25,870 --> 00:08:28,470
And as such,faces enormous
difficulty getting employment.
157
00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:30,250
He was fortunate enough to do so here.
158
00:08:30,260 --> 00:08:32,630
I understand,but I gotta be honest.
159
00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:34,530
I live here myself.
160
00:08:34,540 --> 00:08:36,000
He's free to go,
161
00:08:36,010 --> 00:08:39,980
and I would hope that he
would do so,far,far away.
162
00:08:39,990 --> 00:08:42,050
We're adjourned.
163
00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:02,460
I lost my mind.
164
00:09:04,810 --> 00:09:06,470
I've been charged with a serious crime.
165
00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:10,380
I was wondering whether you'd
provide me with representation.
166
00:09:10,770 --> 00:09:12,310
No.
167
00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:17,180
Well,that seems at odds
with your showing up.
168
00:09:20,390 --> 00:09:24,890
It's not every day we encounter
compelling characters,is it?
169
00:09:25,550 --> 00:09:27,450
Do you expect to get away with this?
170
00:09:27,460 --> 00:09:28,470
I'm insane.
171
00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:29,660
Not legally.
172
00:09:29,670 --> 00:09:33,780
Well... that would be a jury's
call,which,with your influence--
173
00:09:33,790 --> 00:09:35,230
patrice-- may I
call you patrice?
174
00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:36,230
I'd like thaT.
175
00:09:36,460 --> 00:09:38,480
Let's drop the little insanity act.
176
00:09:38,490 --> 00:09:40,200
Let's be frank.
177
00:09:40,530 --> 00:09:43,300
This was a premeditated,calculated
revenge killing.
178
00:09:43,310 --> 00:09:45,190
That's not true.
179
00:09:46,990 --> 00:09:50,470
But if it were true,he had it coming.
180
00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:56,590
So you took the case?
181
00:09:56,600 --> 00:09:59,460
She was just too fascinating to pass up.
182
00:09:59,470 --> 00:10:00,580
Would I like her?
183
00:10:00,590 --> 00:10:03,370
She's female,has a pulse.
184
00:10:04,500 --> 00:10:06,130
the arraignment's tomorrow. You want in?
185
00:10:06,140 --> 00:10:08,060
Of course I want in.
186
00:10:08,270 --> 00:10:09,980
You ready?
187
00:10:11,450 --> 00:10:12,810
Ready for what?
188
00:10:12,820 --> 00:10:15,260
Lorraine and i are getting underpants.
189
00:10:16,190 --> 00:10:17,890
Drinks.
190
00:10:17,900 --> 00:10:20,390
I drink,like a fish. I promise.
191
00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:27,650
This is the only job he could get,jerry.
192
00:10:27,660 --> 00:10:28,970
If he can't get there...
193
00:10:28,980 --> 00:10:33,380
laws denying sex offenders housing,jobs,
they've all been upheld as reasonable.
194
00:10:35,830 --> 00:10:38,550
we could always challenge
megan's law itself.
195
00:10:38,560 --> 00:10:42,200
This judge did seem to suggest
some intolerance for it.
196
00:10:44,480 --> 00:10:46,680
We sort of won,but...
197
00:10:46,690 --> 00:10:48,480
but what?
198
00:10:48,710 --> 00:10:51,470
We'd like to go back into
court just one more time.
199
00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:53,400
Because?
200
00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:56,330
To overturn megan's law.
201
00:10:56,810 --> 00:10:58,720
So compassionate.
202
00:10:58,730 --> 00:11:00,290
The answer's no.
203
00:11:00,300 --> 00:11:02,660
You're both behind on
assignments from other partners.
204
00:11:02,670 --> 00:11:05,370
You need to think about saving your
own jobs instead of your buddy joe'S.
205
00:11:05,380 --> 00:11:09,060
- Mr.Sack- - there will be no more
time spent on joseph washington.
206
00:11:09,520 --> 00:11:11,090
You're done.
207
00:11:18,380 --> 00:11:21,250
Tell me more about this
friend of your mother'S.
208
00:11:24,310 --> 00:11:26,440
she looked like you.
209
00:11:26,450 --> 00:11:27,630
She was...
210
00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:31,550
impossibly beautiful...
211
00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:34,070
funny...
212
00:11:34,300 --> 00:11:35,940
intuitive.
213
00:11:38,010 --> 00:11:41,960
She took away my virginity
and never retuned it.
214
00:11:41,970 --> 00:11:43,930
You were 14.
215
00:11:46,070 --> 00:11:49,710
Is it possible your sex
with me is about anger?
216
00:11:51,570 --> 00:11:53,840
I think it's more about napkins.
217
00:11:53,850 --> 00:11:56,040
Uh,control.
218
00:11:58,650 --> 00:12:00,490
The...
219
00:12:02,680 --> 00:12:08,680
the first time you and I kissed,you
touched my leg in a very...
220
00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:14,880
gentle,familiar way,which...
221
00:12:17,730 --> 00:12:21,230
my mother was not an affectionate
woman. I've told you this.
222
00:12:21,690 --> 00:12:24,400
The only act of tenderness
I can recall was,
223
00:12:24,410 --> 00:12:27,460
she would fit me for
trousers,and in so doing,
224
00:12:27,470 --> 00:12:30,800
she would touch my leg in a way that...
225
00:12:31,760 --> 00:12:34,370
I-in the absence of
any other attention,
226
00:12:34,380 --> 00:12:39,210
an 8-year-old boy might
interpret as nurturing and loving.
227
00:12:39,220 --> 00:12:43,550
And somehow now you
occasion a series of...
228
00:12:45,450 --> 00:12:49,490
visceral memories and responses,which...
229
00:12:50,620 --> 00:12:53,960
for some reason seem
to induce green peanuts.
230
00:12:55,460 --> 00:12:57,630
Word salad.
231
00:13:26,900 --> 00:13:30,230
the fact is,megan's
law is unconstitutional.
232
00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:33,720
it's a punishment that amounts
to a form of double jeopardy.
233
00:13:33,730 --> 00:13:36,440
My client has already
paid his debt to society.
234
00:13:36,450 --> 00:13:37,830
He served his term.
235
00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:39,670
Requiring that he
register post-prison--
236
00:13:39,680 --> 00:13:42,050
are you seriously going to
challenge an existing law?
237
00:13:42,060 --> 00:13:45,120
This law also denies due process.
238
00:13:45,130 --> 00:13:48,910
My client was afforded no opportunity
to a hearing before having to register.
239
00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:49,690
He got a trial.
240
00:13:49,700 --> 00:13:52,530
But these are post-trial consequences.
241
00:13:52,540 --> 00:13:55,050
What's more,the law is capricious.
242
00:13:55,060 --> 00:13:57,300
If we punish sex
offenders like this--
243
00:13:57,310 --> 00:14:01,660
making it impossible for them to get
housing,jobs, impossible to live--
244
00:14:01,670 --> 00:14:04,630
they simple won't
register,as many today don'T.
245
00:14:04,640 --> 00:14:07,510
We're talking about a crime with
the highest rate of recidivism,
246
00:14:07,520 --> 00:14:11,030
a crime where most offenders
are powerless not to repeat.
247
00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:11,820
They're sick.
248
00:14:11,830 --> 00:14:15,060
Does megan's law pinch a few
of their civil liberties? Sure.
249
00:14:15,070 --> 00:14:18,600
I say they forfeit those liberties
when they put their hands on a child.
250
00:14:19,070 --> 00:14:20,820
settle down.
251
00:14:21,750 --> 00:14:24,060
The so-called sex offense
we're talking about here is that
252
00:14:24,070 --> 00:14:27,590
he had sex as a 17 year
old with a girl who was 16.
253
00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:28,480
No,he raped her.
254
00:14:28,490 --> 00:14:29,710
It was consensual!
255
00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:30,900
The jury found otherwise.
256
00:14:30,910 --> 00:14:33,210
All right,all right. I've heard enough.
257
00:14:33,550 --> 00:14:38,090
Mr.Epsenson,you make many valid
points,but the bottom line--
258
00:14:38,100 --> 00:14:43,070
I'm not overturning megan's law,and
good luck finding any judge who will.
259
00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:47,360
Your motion is denied,and
we're adjourned.
260
00:14:55,690 --> 00:14:57,530
I'm curiouS.
261
00:14:57,860 --> 00:15:02,920
Which of you had the bright
idea,hey,let's just defy carl sack?
262
00:15:02,930 --> 00:15:05,830
Mr.Sack,joseph washington is
being punished and vilified--
263
00:15:05,840 --> 00:15:07,470
yes,we tend to do that with rapists.
264
00:15:07,480 --> 00:15:09,730
He did not rape her.
265
00:15:09,740 --> 00:15:13,080
You may not believe in him,but
you cannot deny my right to,
266
00:15:13,090 --> 00:15:15,600
whether you're a senior
partner or otherwise.
267
00:15:17,280 --> 00:15:20,000
I don't know your buddy joe,katie.
268
00:15:20,010 --> 00:15:22,590
I believe in you,or did.
269
00:15:23,150 --> 00:15:24,660
If this woman he was
convicted of raping,
270
00:15:24,670 --> 00:15:28,570
if she was really his
girlfriend,joe-bob would know her name.
271
00:15:28,580 --> 00:15:29,630
So?
272
00:15:29,640 --> 00:15:32,360
So a good attorney,which
I had believed you to be,
273
00:15:32,370 --> 00:15:36,130
instead of trying to overturn megan's
law,would be googling the girl,
274
00:15:36,140 --> 00:15:39,670
finding her,persuading her to recant
in hopes of overturning the conviction.
275
00:15:39,680 --> 00:15:43,510
A good attorney would then simply
unregister him as a sex offender.
276
00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:45,810
That's what good attorneys do.
277
00:15:45,820 --> 00:15:50,860
But since you two are seemingly
not,probably not wise to defy me.
278
00:15:52,650 --> 00:15:54,550
Get out.
279
00:15:54,560 --> 00:15:55,970
Yes,sir.
280
00:15:57,090 --> 00:15:59,030
Thank you,sir.
281
00:16:05,380 --> 00:16:07,220
if the police report is to be believed,
282
00:16:07,230 --> 00:16:09,700
you walked into sean
harmon's place of employment,
283
00:16:09,710 --> 00:16:11,620
approached him and shot
him in the forehead.
284
00:16:11,630 --> 00:16:13,900
I said hello first.
285
00:16:13,910 --> 00:16:18,960
I wanted to give him a second to
appreciate who was killing him and why.
286
00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:23,930
Do you feel any contrition
whatsoever over this?
287
00:16:23,940 --> 00:16:25,550
Would that help?
288
00:16:26,990 --> 00:16:29,810
I really don't know what to say here.
289
00:16:29,820 --> 00:16:31,960
Well,the first order of
business,you must get me bail.
290
00:16:31,970 --> 00:16:34,440
I had all my securities
converted into cash,
291
00:16:34,450 --> 00:16:37,030
so I should be able to get
a money order issued today.
292
00:16:37,040 --> 00:16:37,650
Bail--
293
00:16:37,660 --> 00:16:42,060
if I don't get bail,alan,the only
images of me will be in this outfit.
294
00:16:42,260 --> 00:16:43,380
We can't have that.
295
00:16:43,390 --> 00:16:46,640
We need to think about
influencing that jury pool.
296
00:16:46,650 --> 00:16:48,820
I'm sure you agree
297
00:16:49,710 --> 00:16:52,090
you're not sounding very insane.
298
00:16:52,100 --> 00:16:53,760
Well,I'm better now.
299
00:16:53,770 --> 00:16:55,610
It was temporary insanity.
300
00:16:55,620 --> 00:16:56,890
Oh,right.
301
00:16:56,900 --> 00:17:00,470
I'd like you to get dominion of the
room as soon as arraignment begins.
302
00:17:00,480 --> 00:17:03,880
If possible,please preempt
the reading of the charges.
303
00:17:03,890 --> 00:17:05,870
They tend to make good sound bites.
304
00:17:05,880 --> 00:17:10,180
And also,please don't forget in your bail
argument to state the obvious-- this is important.
305
00:17:10,190 --> 00:17:11,970
- The obvious?
- Yes.
306
00:17:12,780 --> 00:17:14,780
He had it coming.
307
00:17:15,110 --> 00:17:17,900
I'd like you to be
passionate about that.
308
00:17:18,500 --> 00:17:20,980
The jury will be listening.
309
00:17:24,710 --> 00:17:28,570
Case number 6-2-4-5--
commonwealth vs.Patrice kelly
310
00:17:28,580 --> 00:17:33,320
- on a charge of first-degree murder-- - alan shore
for the defendant along with my colleague denny crane.
311
00:17:33,330 --> 00:17:35,930
We'd like to enter our appearance
and a plea of not guilty.
312
00:17:35,940 --> 00:17:39,660
We'll waive reading of these charges
which,quite frankly, shouldn't be read at all.
313
00:17:39,670 --> 00:17:43,480
What kind of society is this that
hauls in a grieving mother who--
314
00:17:43,490 --> 00:17:47,040
we only haul in grieving mothers
who shoot people,counselor.
315
00:17:47,050 --> 00:17:47,660
Yes,your honor.
316
00:17:47,670 --> 00:17:49,590
If we uld proceed
to bail,my client--
317
00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:52,060
committed cold-blooded
murder and bail is not--
318
00:17:52,070 --> 00:17:53,630
her blood temperature was never taken,
319
00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:57,130
and bail is a function of flight
risk and danger to society.
320
00:17:57,140 --> 00:17:58,670
Patrice kelly poses neither.
321
00:17:58,680 --> 00:18:00,050
She executes people.
322
00:18:00,060 --> 00:18:01,530
Only the ones who murder her children,
323
00:18:01,540 --> 00:18:03,620
and since my client is
now fresh out of kids,
324
00:18:03,630 --> 00:18:06,330
I would submit that there's nobody
left for patrice kelly to shoot.
325
00:18:06,340 --> 00:18:10,640
Mr.Shore,your tone doesn't seem to
grasp the severity of the matter.
326
00:18:10,650 --> 00:18:13,360
Do you think we're all gathered
here for a good snicker?
327
00:18:13,370 --> 00:18:14,610
No,I do not,your honor.
328
00:18:14,620 --> 00:18:16,700
We're gathered here because
this woman's only daughter
329
00:18:16,710 --> 00:18:19,410
was beaten to death by a
man of considerable wealth
330
00:18:19,420 --> 00:18:21,690
who was able to hire
people with all the skills
331
00:18:21,700 --> 00:18:26,000
and resources necessary to manufacture
a temporary insanity defense.
332
00:18:26,010 --> 00:18:30,200
The best kind of insanity defense because
with that one you get both the acquittal
333
00:18:30,210 --> 00:18:33,650
and your walking papers so long as
you show that the insanity has passed,
334
00:18:33,660 --> 00:18:37,310
which his lawyers of considerable
skills and resources were able to do.
335
00:18:37,320 --> 00:18:40,940
Sean harmon walked out of
that courtroom a free man.
336
00:18:40,950 --> 00:18:44,510
He bludgeoned her daughter
to death with a vodka bottle.
337
00:18:44,520 --> 00:18:45,750
He did not go to prison.
338
00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:47,200
He did not go to a hospital.
339
00:18:47,210 --> 00:18:50,630
And my client,a grieving mother,could
not allow for that injustice.
340
00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:53,420
She is not a threat to society at large.
341
00:18:53,430 --> 00:18:56,360
She's not going to run
because,frankly,why should she?
342
00:18:56,370 --> 00:18:58,980
Sean harmon viciously
killed her daughter.
343
00:18:58,990 --> 00:19:00,710
Sean harmon had it coming.
344
00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:05,100
He made her crazy,and he
got exactly what he deserved.
345
00:19:06,520 --> 00:19:08,680
Bail is set for $1 million.
346
00:19:08,690 --> 00:19:10,700
We'll set a conference for scheduling.
347
00:19:10,710 --> 00:19:12,510
- Defense is ready now.
- What?
348
00:19:12,520 --> 00:19:13,780
There's no discovery to speak of.
349
00:19:13,790 --> 00:19:16,670
My client walked in and
shot somebody,allegedly.
350
00:19:16,680 --> 00:19:19,230
Do you mean you're entering
a straight plea of not guilty?
351
00:19:19,240 --> 00:19:20,060
No,no,no,no.
352
00:19:20,070 --> 00:19:23,000
At this time,we'dike to give
notice of our affirmative defense.
353
00:19:23,010 --> 00:19:24,790
Which is?
354
00:19:24,800 --> 00:19:27,130
Temporary insanity.
355
00:19:35,850 --> 00:19:37,970
is it wise to proceed right to trial?
356
00:19:37,980 --> 00:19:41,540
There was public outrage when sean harmon
was acquitted of killing your daughter.
357
00:19:41,550 --> 00:19:45,070
We want to exploit that
while it's still outrageous.
358
00:19:45,080 --> 00:19:47,620
I'd also like a black
attorney if you've got one.
359
00:19:47,630 --> 00:19:49,770
There will be african-american jurors.
360
00:19:49,780 --> 00:19:53,490
I may be portrayed as the rich,white
blue blood looking to buy a verdict,
361
00:19:53,500 --> 00:19:55,660
so we should probably color up.
362
00:19:55,670 --> 00:19:58,570
And on tt note,denny crane is out.
363
00:19:58,580 --> 00:20:02,180
I don't need the image . Of
corporate,gluttonous wealth sitting next to me.
364
00:20:02,570 --> 00:20:05,190
We should schedule a press
conference as soon as possible.
365
00:20:05,200 --> 00:20:07,520
Since you may not want
to put me on the stand,
366
00:20:07,530 --> 00:20:12,710
I suggest I tell my story to the
media,free from cross-examination.
367
00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:15,840
You scare me.
368
00:20:23,460 --> 00:20:25,220
hi. I'm gwen richards.
369
00:20:25,230 --> 00:20:26,540
- Can I helpou?
- YeS.
370
00:20:26,550 --> 00:20:27,790
Thank you.
371
00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:28,850
My name's katie lloyd.
372
00:20:28,860 --> 00:20:31,890
I represent a man
named joseph washington.
373
00:20:34,010 --> 00:20:37,620
I'm guessing from your expression
you know who I'm talking about.
374
00:20:38,620 --> 00:20:40,790
may we speak in private?
375
00:20:42,500 --> 00:20:45,640
As I understand joseph,the
sex was consensual,
376
00:20:45,650 --> 00:20:49,120
but you maintained otherwise so as
not to incur the wrath of your father.
377
00:20:49,130 --> 00:20:51,050
That's not true.
378
00:20:51,060 --> 00:20:53,230
The sex was not consensual.
379
00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:54,290
He overpowered you?
380
00:20:54,300 --> 00:20:56,620
He pressured me.
381
00:20:56,630 --> 00:20:58,880
I was 16. I was afraid to say no.
382
00:20:58,890 --> 00:21:02,330
I didn't feel like I had a choice.
383
00:21:05,050 --> 00:21:07,370
Ms.Lloyd,I can't help you.
384
00:21:07,950 --> 00:21:12,660
plus,this is something that
I tried to put behind me.
385
00:21:13,020 --> 00:21:15,950
I have a life,a family. I...
386
00:21:19,990 --> 00:21:22,110
I'm not a psychologist.
387
00:21:22,120 --> 00:21:26,630
But I suspect if you weren't
raped,you'll never put this behind you.
388
00:21:27,010 --> 00:21:30,240
A man served six years in prison.
389
00:21:30,250 --> 00:21:34,360
He must live what's left of his shattered
life as a registered sex offender.
390
00:21:34,370 --> 00:21:38,220
- And--and if you're a person of
conscienc - I need you to leave.
391
00:21:38,640 --> 00:21:41,790
I have to get back to work,and I...
392
00:21:41,800 --> 00:21:44,230
can't help you.
393
00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:48,350
I need you to leave.
394
00:22:03,500 --> 00:22:08,490
Need to talk,specifically
about your insitY.
395
00:22:08,500 --> 00:22:09,740
Can we do that?
396
00:22:09,750 --> 00:22:12,890
My thought is it should
be a dissociative state.
397
00:22:12,900 --> 00:22:15,530
They tend to be temporary in nature.
398
00:22:16,060 --> 00:22:18,680
What would be the precipitating factor?
399
00:22:18,690 --> 00:22:21,820
It was a full month after
sean harmon's acquittal.
400
00:22:21,830 --> 00:22:25,520
So what was it that...
sent you around the bend?
401
00:22:25,850 --> 00:22:27,190
God.
402
00:22:27,700 --> 00:22:29,090
God?
403
00:22:29,100 --> 00:22:30,570
God.
404
00:22:30,580 --> 00:22:32,560
He spoke to me.
405
00:22:32,570 --> 00:22:34,200
And what did god say?
406
00:22:34,210 --> 00:22:36,050
Shoot him in the head.
407
00:22:36,060 --> 00:22:37,140
I see.
408
00:22:37,150 --> 00:22:40,960
The thing is,patrice,for a jury to
let you go,they have to like you.
409
00:22:40,970 --> 00:22:43,420
That won't happen if they think
you're trying to fool them.
410
00:22:43,430 --> 00:22:45,420
So far I'm not sure I like you.
411
00:22:45,430 --> 00:22:47,550
What's your point?
412
00:22:48,670 --> 00:22:50,220
Did god speak to you?
413
00:22:50,230 --> 00:22:51,770
Yes.
414
00:22:51,780 --> 00:22:54,090
And his exact words were?
415
00:22:54,100 --> 00:22:56,510
Shoot him in the head.
416
00:22:57,780 --> 00:22:59,950
we might subpoena
her. Maybe under oath--
417
00:22:59,960 --> 00:23:02,440
I mean,I'm not sure she's
willing to risk perjury.
418
00:23:02,450 --> 00:23:05,950
But that's exactly what she risked
at the trial when she convicted him.
419
00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:07,310
I mean,if what your saying is true,
420
00:23:07,320 --> 00:23:12,280
it's probably the threat of perjury that's kept her
from setting the record straight all these years.
421
00:23:12,290 --> 00:23:15,960
It's just--there must be
something else we can do.
422
00:23:16,850 --> 00:23:19,710
excuse me,katie,jerry.
423
00:23:20,450 --> 00:23:22,030
Whitney,alan shore.
424
00:23:22,040 --> 00:23:23,750
We haven't officially met.
425
00:23:23,760 --> 00:23:26,790
How do you feel about murder trials?
426
00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:28,070
Take 'em or leave 'em.
427
00:23:28,080 --> 00:23:30,010
I need you to take one as second chair.
428
00:23:30,020 --> 00:23:30,770
Would you come with me?
429
00:23:30,780 --> 00:23:34,580
Okay,if that's a line,um,you'
too old and too fat.
430
00:23:34,970 --> 00:23:37,050
I'm not too old.
431
00:23:37,780 --> 00:23:40,400
Please... leave the beer.
432
00:23:52,070 --> 00:23:53,750
gwen?
433
00:23:56,500 --> 00:23:59,190
Tell me what I need to do.
434
00:24:14,950 --> 00:24:16,500
Tell me again why we're in this court?
435
00:24:16,510 --> 00:24:18,520
This is the court where you
were convicted of the rape,
436
00:24:18,530 --> 00:24:20,440
and therefore,the only
one that can overturn it.
437
00:24:20,450 --> 00:24:23,530
If successful,then we
go back to middletown.
438
00:24:27,030 --> 00:24:29,300
Please don't make her any
more uncomfortable than she is.
439
00:24:29,310 --> 00:24:31,270
We don't want her leaving.
440
00:24:31,720 --> 00:24:33,430
All rise.
441
00:24:33,440 --> 00:24:36,140
In re: Commonwealth
vs.Joseph washington,
442
00:24:36,150 --> 00:24:39,360
the honorable william howe
presiding,this court is in session.
443
00:24:39,370 --> 00:24:40,780
Good morning,your honor.
444
00:24:40,790 --> 00:24:41,980
My name's katie lloyd.
445
00:24:41,990 --> 00:24:46,190
I am before you today with attorney jerry
espenson representing joseph washington,
446
00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:49,460
who was convicted before you
in 1985 on the charge of rape.
447
00:24:49,470 --> 00:24:51,010
Yes,I've read your papers.
448
00:24:51,020 --> 00:24:54,330
your honor,I have no idea if there has
been any deal cut between mr.Washington
449
00:24:54,340 --> 00:24:55,440
and the witness
to effect any--
450
00:24:55,450 --> 00:24:59,050
there's been no such deal,your honor, which
is so attested to in ms.Richards' affidavit.
451
00:24:59,060 --> 00:25:00,020
And I would submit,
452
00:25:00,030 --> 00:25:04,200
since the rape case against joseph washington
was based solely and entirely on her testimony--
453
00:25:04,210 --> 00:25:06,130
is ms.Richards with us today?
454
00:25:06,140 --> 00:25:08,010
She is,your honor.
455
00:25:08,020 --> 00:25:11,270
Ms.Richards,step up here,please.
456
00:25:20,600 --> 00:25:24,510
You claimed mr.Washington
forcibly raped you.
457
00:25:24,520 --> 00:25:27,760
You're saying now that was not the case?
458
00:25:27,770 --> 00:25:29,100
Yes,sir.
459
00:25:29,110 --> 00:25:31,460
Why would you say he did?
460
00:25:33,630 --> 00:25:36,510
my father walked in on us and...
461
00:25:37,720 --> 00:25:42,840
I claimed that mr.Washington
raped me to avoid punishment.
462
00:25:44,860 --> 00:25:48,800
The sex I had with
mr.Washington was consensual.
463
00:25:51,260 --> 00:25:55,870
You realize the prosecution most
likely will charge you now with perjury?
464
00:25:55,880 --> 00:25:59,690
Yes,I have consulted a lawyer. I
know what I'm exposing myself to here.
465
00:25:59,700 --> 00:26:03,800
I find this revelation a
little disgusting,ms.Richards.
466
00:26:03,810 --> 00:26:07,170
In addition to sending this man to
prison for something he didn't do,
467
00:26:07,180 --> 00:26:09,800
perhaps destroyi his life irreparably,
468
00:26:09,810 --> 00:26:14,260
you continued to let that rape
conviction hang over this man
469
00:26:14,270 --> 00:26:16,250
while he was being tried for murder
470
00:26:16,260 --> 00:26:17,970
yes,your honor.
471
00:26:20,380 --> 00:26:23,990
I will never be able to give
back what I took from him.
472
00:26:25,790 --> 00:26:29,550
I cannot punish him
any longer,your honor.
473
00:26:30,270 --> 00:26:32,910
He did not rape me.
474
00:26:34,070 --> 00:26:36,770
I lied.
475
00:26:39,330 --> 00:26:40,780
okay.
476
00:26:41,810 --> 00:26:45,890
Given that the prosecution's
primarwitness has recanted,
477
00:26:45,900 --> 00:26:51,220
I am vacating this conviction
pending further proceedings.
478
00:26:51,230 --> 00:26:54,860
An arrest warrant is hereby
issued for ms.Richards.
479
00:26:54,870 --> 00:26:57,050
Please take her into custody.
480
00:27:14,940 --> 00:27:17,210
He hasn't been cleared. The
case is still officially pending.
481
00:27:17,220 --> 00:27:18,590
But the conviction was vacated,
482
00:27:18,600 --> 00:27:21,430
ich means he doesn't have to
be registered as a sex offender.
483
00:27:23,430 --> 00:27:25,170
all right,settle down.
484
00:27:25,180 --> 00:27:29,580
Your honor, we don't know the circumstances surrounding
ms.Richards sudden decision to recant her testimony.
485
00:27:29,590 --> 00:27:30,500
Mr.Mcdougal,
486
00:27:30,510 --> 00:27:34,700
unless you show me some evidence to
cast suspicion on these circumstances,
487
00:27:34,710 --> 00:27:35,960
my hands are tied.
488
00:27:35,970 --> 00:27:38,970
Heoesn't stand before me
as a convicted sex offender.
489
00:27:38,980 --> 00:27:43,820
I therefore order you to take his name
off the registered sex offenders list.
490
00:27:46,920 --> 00:27:49,050
all right. Quiet.
491
00:27:49,060 --> 00:27:50,670
He is to be afforded all the
rights and privileges that
492
00:27:50,680 --> 00:27:56,560
we typically extend to citizens living
in what we like to call a free society.
493
00:27:56,570 --> 00:27:58,450
That's all.
494
00:28:00,930 --> 00:28:02,430
- So I can drive?
- You can drive.
495
00:28:02,440 --> 00:28:04,790
- And you should be able to qualify for housing.
- Yes.
496
00:28:04,800 --> 00:28:06,160
You still have your job,right?
497
00:28:06,170 --> 00:28:08,120
My boss says I did.
498
00:28:08,670 --> 00:28:09,860
Thank you.
499
00:28:10,420 --> 00:28:11,380
Thank you.
500
00:28:12,020 --> 00:28:13,750
Excuse me.
501
00:28:14,080 --> 00:28:16,050
I'm very sorry to intrude.
502
00:28:16,350 --> 00:28:19,330
Mr.Washington,my name is lauren delhorn,
503
00:28:19,340 --> 00:28:23,010
and I was raised in the town of
middletown,where I still reside.
504
00:28:23,020 --> 00:28:28,280
I realize you've done your time in
prison and paid your debt to society.
505
00:28:28,290 --> 00:28:30,100
But,sir...
506
00:28:31,070 --> 00:28:34,330
we do not want you in middletown.
507
00:28:34,340 --> 00:28:38,750
This is a safe town where people
still go to mass on friday nights.
508
00:28:38,760 --> 00:28:43,470
Please show us the respect that
you'd like others to extend to you.
509
00:28:44,520 --> 00:28:47,360
Go live somewhere else.
510
00:28:55,180 --> 00:28:56,840
They mean well.
511
00:28:57,390 --> 00:28:59,770
They just want to raise
their children and...
512
00:28:59,780 --> 00:29:02,960
I suppose,not have to
look over their shoulders.
513
00:29:02,970 --> 00:29:07,220
But... it probably would be
best if you went elsewhere.
514
00:29:26,100 --> 00:29:27,630
You seem upset.
515
00:29:30,220 --> 00:29:33,620
as ms.Kelly took time out for a
rod stewart concert last night,
516
00:29:33,630 --> 00:29:35,450
she stopped to talk to reporters.
517
00:29:35,460 --> 00:29:37,960
The truth is,in the eight months
following my daughter's death,
518
00:29:37,970 --> 00:29:39,300
I never went anywhere.
519
00:29:39,310 --> 00:29:42,490
It was as if that man
killed me as well as hannah.
520
00:29:42,500 --> 00:29:43,630
Well,he didn't kill me.
521
00:29:43,640 --> 00:29:45,560
In fact,it worked out
quite the opposite.
522
00:29:45,570 --> 00:29:47,660
And now that my daughter
can finally rest in peace,
523
00:29:47,670 --> 00:29:50,030
I thought,maybe I can
live life for both of us.
524
00:29:52,580 --> 00:29:54,910
and what exactly was the thinking here?
525
00:29:54,920 --> 00:29:56,650
I want the jury to know me.
526
00:29:56,660 --> 00:29:59,150
It's more difficult to
imprison people you care about.
527
00:29:59,160 --> 00:30:02,550
And you think you engendered sympathy with
that little performance,going to a rock concert?
528
00:30:02,560 --> 00:30:04,350
Let me tell you something,patrice.
529
00:30:04,360 --> 00:30:08,420
If the jury detects some twisted
sense of joy on your part,
530
00:30:08,430 --> 00:30:10,830
what you saw was empowerment,not joy.
531
00:30:10,840 --> 00:30:12,770
As for the concert,it was rod stewart.
532
00:30:12,780 --> 00:30:14,100
Completely age appropriate.
533
00:30:14,110 --> 00:30:15,990
Jury's not gonna know you,lady.
534
00:30:16,000 --> 00:30:20,370
It all comes down to a collection of
impressions,first ones getting thmost play.
535
00:30:20,380 --> 00:30:22,330
- You wanna know mine?
- No.
536
00:30:24,980 --> 00:30:27,010
I'm sorry. That was rude.
537
00:30:27,020 --> 00:30:29,620
Empowerment's no defense
to first-degree murder.
538
00:30:29,630 --> 00:30:31,690
I'm told god speaks to you.
539
00:30:31,700 --> 00:30:33,370
Best you keep talking to him.
540
00:30:33,380 --> 00:30:35,900
That we can make work.
541
00:30:37,880 --> 00:30:39,730
I like her.
542
00:30:55,270 --> 00:30:58,300
I've never had a beer in
the middle of the day before.
543
00:30:58,540 --> 00:31:01,720
well,winston churchill
used to drink in victory
544
00:31:01,730 --> 00:31:05,090
because he deserved it,and in
defeat because he needed it.
545
00:31:05,100 --> 00:31:08,340
Well,I don't know how
much of a victory it was.
546
00:31:08,350 --> 00:31:10,690
At least he can get to his job anyway.
547
00:31:10,700 --> 00:31:14,430
Yeah,until the town pressures
his employees to fire him.
548
00:31:16,080 --> 00:31:18,120
this is katie lloyd.
549
00:31:19,470 --> 00:31:20,870
what?
550
00:31:22,310 --> 00:31:24,680
Wh-when? When did this happen?
551
00:31:29,910 --> 00:31:31,510
Yes.
552
00:31:35,930 --> 00:31:37,700
What's wrong?
553
00:31:37,910 --> 00:31:39,730
He's dead.
554
00:31:39,740 --> 00:31:41,280
What?
555
00:31:41,670 --> 00:31:44,090
Joseph. He's dead.
556
00:31:51,510 --> 00:31:54,890
We found no identification,but
we're pretty sure it's him.
557
00:31:54,900 --> 00:31:57,690
I really appreciate you coming down.
558
00:31:59,210 --> 00:32:01,620
Are... you okay?
559
00:32:03,420 --> 00:32:05,520
I can do this.
560
00:32:06,880 --> 00:32:08,440
I'll do it.
561
00:32:24,800 --> 00:32:26,760
It's him.
562
00:32:36,310 --> 00:32:39,300
Whoever did it,we'll catch 'em.
563
00:32:54,780 --> 00:32:56,450
inseam is 29.
564
00:32:57,230 --> 00:32:58,520
let's do your waist.
565
00:32:58,530 --> 00:33:01,880
I really don't know what you're
trying to accomplish,lorraine.
566
00:33:01,890 --> 00:33:03,060
This could desensitize you.
567
00:33:03,070 --> 00:33:04,520
It's not working.
568
00:33:04,530 --> 00:33:07,550
Unless by,uh,desensitize
you mean harden.
569
00:33:07,560 --> 00:33:09,170
Are you feeling more comfortable,alan?
570
00:33:09,180 --> 00:33:10,380
I am.
571
00:33:10,390 --> 00:33:12,350
What are you,some kind of nymph?
572
00:33:12,360 --> 00:33:13,960
Whitney,how are you today?
573
00:33:13,970 --> 00:33:15,580
Yeah,yeah,I hate to intrude.
574
00:33:15,590 --> 00:33:19,990
But did you see the statement our temporary
psycho gave to the police after she shot this guy?
575
00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:20,590
I did.
576
00:33:20,600 --> 00:33:24,740
She was
methodical,reflective,deliberate,organized.
577
00:33:24,750 --> 00:33:26,560
How do we make insanity with that?
578
00:33:26,570 --> 00:33:27,610
From scratch.
579
00:33:27,620 --> 00:33:30,630
Everything tastes better that way.
580
00:33:30,850 --> 00:33:32,400
What am I missing?
581
00:33:32,410 --> 00:33:33,690
Nothing,whitney.
582
00:33:33,700 --> 00:33:36,550
As you said yourself,we go with god.
583
00:33:49,340 --> 00:33:54,550
We have a client who was just slapped with a
T.R.O Involving some delicate copyrighissues.
584
00:33:54,560 --> 00:33:56,630
I'm gonna need both of you to
hop on the research immediately.
585
00:33:56,640 --> 00:33:58,430
It may be a late night.
586
00:34:11,400 --> 00:34:13,580
look at me,katie.
587
00:34:18,740 --> 00:34:23,790
older lawyers typically tell the younger
ones not to get too close to the client.
588
00:34:23,800 --> 00:34:26,390
Good advice for the most part.
589
00:34:26,670 --> 00:34:32,500
But mr.Washington was lucky that
he had a lawyer who did get close.
590
00:34:32,810 --> 00:34:35,310
Becae of you,he died an innocent man.
591
00:34:35,320 --> 00:34:37,490
You gave him his name back,
592
00:34:37,820 --> 00:34:41,530
and I would suspect a little faith.
593
00:34:42,280 --> 00:34:47,440
He died without a single person in
the world giving a damn about him.
594
00:34:47,630 --> 00:34:50,640
That's not true. Is it?
595
00:35:08,400 --> 00:35:10,490
I'm going to church.
596
00:36:05,030 --> 00:36:06,310
I-I beg your pardon.
597
00:36:06,320 --> 00:36:10,740
I-I was wondering if might say just a
word or two in memory of joseph washington.
598
00:36:14,470 --> 00:36:15,920
All right.
599
00:36:25,290 --> 00:36:28,290
I terribly sorry to disturb
your evening service.
600
00:36:28,300 --> 00:36:33,780
But a man,joseph washgton--
maybe some of you knew him--
601
00:36:34,390 --> 00:36:37,640
passed away today,and,uh,
602
00:36:38,000 --> 00:36:41,330
well,his last place of
residence was middletown.
603
00:36:41,710 --> 00:36:44,440
He didn't really have
many people in his life.
604
00:36:44,450 --> 00:36:46,520
He--he spent a great
deal of time in prison,
605
00:36:46,530 --> 00:36:49,560
and when he got
out,well,as you can imagine,
606
00:36:49,570 --> 00:36:53,270
not very many communities
were inclined to embrace him.
607
00:36:53,280 --> 00:36:55,750
He was excited about
coming to middletown
608
00:36:55,760 --> 00:36:58,620
because he'd heard it was a kind town,
609
00:36:58,970 --> 00:37:01,520
a community of tolerant people.
610
00:37:02,790 --> 00:37:04,890
Not all of you welcomed him.
611
00:37:06,440 --> 00:37:08,770
Some of you thought him a murderer...
612
00:37:08,970 --> 00:37:10,740
though he was not.
613
00:37:11,560 --> 00:37:14,530
Some of you thought he was a rapist...
614
00:37:15,240 --> 00:37:17,490
though he was not.
615
00:37:18,430 --> 00:37:21,270
Some of you thought him unfeeling...
616
00:37:22,290 --> 00:37:24,260
uh,though he was not.
617
00:37:27,100 --> 00:37:30,770
Many of you have families and
quite rightly want to protect them.
618
00:37:30,780 --> 00:37:33,380
You don't want people
coming here out of prison.
619
00:37:33,390 --> 00:37:36,060
But you might wonder,wherare they to go?
620
00:37:36,070 --> 00:37:39,350
With over two million people
currently in american prisons,
621
00:37:39,360 --> 00:37:42,980
with about 700,000 due to be
released by the end of next year,
622
00:37:42,990 --> 00:37:45,130
where are they to go?
623
00:37:45,540 --> 00:37:48,170
And if we deny them housing and jobs,
624
00:37:48,180 --> 00:37:52,850
if we treat them with nothing but
scorn,what's to become of them?
625
00:37:55,100 --> 00:37:58,320
I apologize. I didn't come
here to lecture so much as...
626
00:37:59,190 --> 00:38:03,110
well,when a human being
dies,he should be prayed for.
627
00:38:03,680 --> 00:38:06,260
And since joseph last lived among you,
628
00:38:07,490 --> 00:38:09,730
please let us pray.
629
00:38:20,720 --> 00:38:22,040
Oh,lord...
630
00:38:22,050 --> 00:38:26,510
we humbly pray thee to show
mercy on the soul of joseph,
631
00:38:26,520 --> 00:38:29,780
who you have commanded to
pass out of this world...
632
00:38:30,300 --> 00:38:33,470
a world which was often not kind to him.
633
00:38:34,570 --> 00:38:39,620
we pray thee might place him
in a place of peace and light,
634
00:38:40,090 --> 00:38:44,270
of goodwill...love and forgiveness.
635
00:38:45,240 --> 00:38:46,320
Amen.
636
00:38:46,330 --> 00:38:47,590
amen.
637
00:39:22,340 --> 00:39:26,640
You can't go in with god told
me to shoot him as a defense.
638
00:39:27,170 --> 00:39:28,580
Why not?
639
00:39:28,590 --> 00:39:32,420
I don't doubt that god talked
to her,but he wouldn't say shoot.
640
00:39:32,430 --> 00:39:33,490
The devil would say that.
641
00:39:33,500 --> 00:39:36,700
And--and juries
don't like devils.
642
00:39:36,710 --> 00:39:37,730
Except mE.
643
00:39:37,740 --> 00:39:40,300
That's right. They love you.
644
00:39:42,780 --> 00:39:45,720
I must say,I feel a little
bit likehe devil,denny.
645
00:39:46,120 --> 00:39:50,160
I mean,I don't believe for a
second that woman was insane.
646
00:39:50,170 --> 00:39:52,980
It was as premeditated as can be.
647
00:39:52,990 --> 00:39:55,170
Yet I'm excited to help
her get away with it.
648
00:39:55,180 --> 00:39:57,390
Well,that's because the bastard
had it coming,like she said.
649
00:39:57,400 --> 00:40:00,570
He deserved to be shot
right between the eyes.
650
00:40:00,580 --> 00:40:05,080
And you have trouble admitting
to yourself that deep down,
651
00:40:05,090 --> 00:40:06,910
you're for the death penalty.
652
00:40:06,920 --> 00:40:09,690
An eye for an eye. Boom.Feels good.
653
00:40:10,440 --> 00:40:13,130
- I'm not for the death penalty.
- Mm,yes,you are.
654
00:40:14,030 --> 00:40:16,830
It's not politically
correct,it's not evolved,
655
00:40:16,840 --> 00:40:19,780
it's not
learned-- spare me.
656
00:40:19,790 --> 00:40:23,100
The guy beat the girl to death.
657
00:40:23,590 --> 00:40:26,070
I'd have shot him in the balls first.
658
00:40:26,280 --> 00:40:29,840
An eye for an eye.
659
00:40:30,590 --> 00:40:32,080
Dead.
660
00:40:32,830 --> 00:40:36,250
That's what you believe,deep
down. So does god.
661
00:40:38,480 --> 00:40:40,350
What?
662
00:40:43,160 --> 00:40:46,560
- did you hear joseph washington was killed?
- Yeah
663
00:40:46,570 --> 00:40:47,920
Terrible.
664
00:40:50,130 --> 00:40:53,720
I used to think hope was something
that belonged to everybody.
665
00:40:54,580 --> 00:41:00,080
Put limits on guns
and butter but hope...
666
00:41:01,330 --> 00:41:03,540
springs a kernel.
667
00:41:06,110 --> 00:41:07,750
Old farmer's saying.
668
00:41:07,760 --> 00:41:09,280
Growing corn?
669
00:41:09,290 --> 00:41:11,400
Hope springs a kernel.
670
00:41:11,410 --> 00:41:13,310
Haven't you heard that?
671
00:41:14,140 --> 00:41:16,560
Springs eternal.
672
00:41:18,040 --> 00:41:21,890
Hope... springs eternal.
673
00:41:26,640 --> 00:41:28,500
It didn't for joseph washington.
674
00:41:28,510 --> 00:41:30,890
Or if it did,it didn't matter.
675
00:41:32,140 --> 00:41:34,690
two things this world
has too much of--
676
00:41:34,700 --> 00:41:36,820
suffering and...
677
00:41:38,560 --> 00:41:40,090
corn.
678
00:41:40,790 --> 00:41:43,610
I think it is hope springs a kernel.
679
00:41:45,480 --> 00:41:47,450
you may be right.
