1
00:00:06,006 --> 00:00:09,050
How do you bribe a juror
months before there's a jury panel?
2
00:00:09,134 --> 00:00:11,469
I don't know who he is
or anything about him.
3
00:00:11,553 --> 00:00:13,513
All I know is he's bought and paid for.
4
00:00:13,596 --> 00:00:17,809
"Judge Stanton, juror number seven is not
who you think he is or who he says he is."
5
00:00:17,892 --> 00:00:20,270
- No idea who it's from.
- Did we get him when he came in?
6
00:00:20,353 --> 00:00:21,914
Juror number seven
didn't show up this morning.
7
00:00:21,938 --> 00:00:23,857
Maybe juror number seven's dead.
8
00:00:23,940 --> 00:00:26,860
Did you think of that?
Maybe you and I are next.
9
00:00:26,943 --> 00:00:29,362
But Trevor Elliott
had gunshot residue on his hands.
10
00:00:29,446 --> 00:00:30,655
[Mickey] I have a plan.
11
00:00:30,739 --> 00:00:32,550
Call Tony Walsh,
invite him to this fundraiser.
12
00:00:32,574 --> 00:00:34,284
It's the internal audit
from the crime lab,
13
00:00:34,367 --> 00:00:36,244
They copied to my discovery by mistake.
14
00:00:36,327 --> 00:00:39,039
Now, there was a woman, Sonia Patel,
an old friend of Lara Elliott.
15
00:00:39,122 --> 00:00:41,166
- I'll find her.
- [Mickey] I'll take care of that.
16
00:00:41,249 --> 00:00:44,753
Nothing out of the ordinary on his GPS,
except for one place, a casino.
17
00:00:44,836 --> 00:00:46,254
Jerry like to gamble much?
18
00:00:46,337 --> 00:00:48,256
This is the security footage
19
00:00:48,339 --> 00:00:51,217
from outside the casino
that Jerry Vincent kept going to.
20
00:00:51,301 --> 00:00:53,845
[Mickey] Who's the other guy?
What papers did he hand over?
21
00:00:53,928 --> 00:00:56,514
- Tanya plays dumb...
- She's ready to go after Soto.
22
00:00:56,598 --> 00:00:58,099
Good. So am I.
23
00:00:58,183 --> 00:01:01,061
I drove him to a flower shop.
24
00:01:01,144 --> 00:01:03,146
[voice shaking] The next day,
my friend was gone.
25
00:01:03,229 --> 00:01:07,108
Alvin Aquino. BNG ink, on parole for
attempted murder. Guess where he works?
26
00:01:07,192 --> 00:01:08,193
[Maggie] Namayan Flowers.
27
00:01:08,276 --> 00:01:11,696
You had to take that plea
because our star witness went missing.
28
00:01:11,780 --> 00:01:14,240
I really need your help
finding Glory Days again.
29
00:01:14,324 --> 00:01:16,117
- Everything all right?
- [Izzy] It's my ex.
30
00:01:16,201 --> 00:01:19,162
She posted photos partying
with some people we used to tour with,
31
00:01:19,245 --> 00:01:20,580
which means she's using again.
32
00:01:20,663 --> 00:01:23,583
Jerry had something,
which means there's something to have.
33
00:01:23,666 --> 00:01:27,212
And if he can find it,
I can fucking find it.
34
00:01:44,938 --> 00:01:45,939
[bell dings]
35
00:01:52,570 --> 00:01:53,570
[door opens]
36
00:01:56,074 --> 00:01:57,659
[footsteps approaching]
37
00:02:02,288 --> 00:02:04,374
You better make this worth my while.
38
00:02:04,457 --> 00:02:05,583
I don't do mornings.
39
00:02:06,167 --> 00:02:08,211
I'm sorry, I'm still in trial.
40
00:02:08,920 --> 00:02:11,881
It was the only time I had
and please, help yourself.
41
00:02:13,758 --> 00:02:14,968
I found Glory Days.
42
00:02:15,927 --> 00:02:16,927
How?
43
00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:19,430
My extensive surveillance network.
44
00:02:20,557 --> 00:02:22,225
I know a girl, who knows a girl,
45
00:02:22,308 --> 00:02:25,436
runs one of those
Girlfriend Experience operations.
46
00:02:26,104 --> 00:02:28,356
You asked me
what I'd do if I had to lay low?
47
00:02:28,439 --> 00:02:29,482
I'd do that.
48
00:02:30,316 --> 00:02:32,569
That's what Glory is doing. Out of Vegas.
49
00:02:32,652 --> 00:02:33,987
You have an address?
50
00:02:34,070 --> 00:02:36,030
No. No phone number neither,
51
00:02:36,114 --> 00:02:39,117
but I did find out
she comes back to LA every so often,
52
00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:40,493
see some of her regulars.
53
00:02:43,246 --> 00:02:44,414
And?
54
00:03:06,519 --> 00:03:09,189
This is one of her best clients.
55
00:03:09,898 --> 00:03:12,483
When he calls, she comes to town.
56
00:03:16,279 --> 00:03:18,489
- Thanks.
- Pleasure as always.
57
00:03:19,073 --> 00:03:22,118
Now, if we're done here,
girl's gotta get her sleep.
58
00:03:26,206 --> 00:03:29,459
Hey, Cherry,
take care of yourself, all right?
59
00:03:30,043 --> 00:03:31,043
Always.
60
00:03:37,759 --> 00:03:39,761
[opening theme music playing]
61
00:03:46,768 --> 00:03:48,102
[Lorna] Now, back to the right.
62
00:03:48,895 --> 00:03:50,021
No, that's too far.
63
00:03:50,772 --> 00:03:51,772
To the left.
64
00:03:52,774 --> 00:03:53,774
Left.
65
00:03:54,609 --> 00:03:56,527
Everybody's got an opinion, huh?
66
00:03:56,611 --> 00:03:57,611
Yeah.
67
00:03:58,029 --> 00:03:59,030
[cell phone ringing]
68
00:03:59,113 --> 00:04:00,113
You're so smart.
69
00:04:03,993 --> 00:04:04,827
Yeah?
70
00:04:04,911 --> 00:04:07,830
Can you meet me at court in 30 minutes?
I've got something for you.
71
00:04:07,914 --> 00:04:10,291
No problem. You ready for today?
72
00:04:10,375 --> 00:04:14,170
I've got the report Tony Walsh gave me.
That should handle the gunshot residue.
73
00:04:14,254 --> 00:04:15,296
Beyond that...
74
00:04:16,172 --> 00:04:18,549
You find more
about the guy at that casino with Jerry?
75
00:04:18,633 --> 00:04:19,717
Nope.
76
00:04:19,801 --> 00:04:22,136
And LAPD hit a wall, too,
77
00:04:22,220 --> 00:04:24,264
but it's gotta mean something, right?
78
00:04:24,889 --> 00:04:28,142
I don't know.
And I'm out of time to be chasing ghosts.
79
00:04:29,811 --> 00:04:30,811
Good luck.
80
00:04:32,897 --> 00:04:34,983
[judge] Are the People ready to proceed?
81
00:04:35,066 --> 00:04:36,776
[Golantz] The People call Sonia Patel.
82
00:04:38,236 --> 00:04:40,989
- What's going on?
- Nothing we weren't expecting.
83
00:04:41,072 --> 00:04:42,824
Objection. Sidebar, Your Honor?
84
00:04:47,578 --> 00:04:48,997
What's the problem, Counsel?
85
00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:52,208
Problem is that this witness
is not on the prosecution's list.
86
00:04:52,292 --> 00:04:53,918
As Counsel is aware,
87
00:04:54,002 --> 00:04:56,879
the witness recently
came to light via an article in the press.
88
00:04:56,963 --> 00:05:00,466
Mr. Haller spoke with her before I did.
He can't claim to be blindsided.
89
00:05:00,550 --> 00:05:03,761
That's how I know the witness has
no information about the murders.
90
00:05:03,845 --> 00:05:05,054
She had a front-row seat
91
00:05:05,138 --> 00:05:07,015
to the relationship
of the defendant and wife.
92
00:05:07,098 --> 00:05:08,141
Yeah, ten years ago.
93
00:05:08,725 --> 00:05:11,269
Sounds like something
you can bring out on cross.
94
00:05:12,353 --> 00:05:14,480
You can have
a standing objection, Mr. Haller.
95
00:05:14,564 --> 00:05:16,941
If the witness
has nothing of evidentiary value,
96
00:05:17,025 --> 00:05:19,777
I'll strike her testimony
and instruct the jury to disregard.
97
00:05:20,987 --> 00:05:21,988
Call your witness.
98
00:05:23,698 --> 00:05:24,782
[Golantz] Miss Patel,
99
00:05:25,450 --> 00:05:28,619
what was your relationship
with the defendant and his late wife?
100
00:05:28,703 --> 00:05:32,415
Lara and I were friends.
We worked together at Chaos Games.
101
00:05:33,124 --> 00:05:35,251
She and Trevor
were already dating by then.
102
00:05:35,335 --> 00:05:37,420
[Golantz] Did the three of you
spend time together?
103
00:05:37,503 --> 00:05:38,963
Quite a bit. [chuckles]
104
00:05:39,047 --> 00:05:41,257
I was basically
the third wheel for a while.
105
00:05:41,841 --> 00:05:42,967
Then what happened?
106
00:05:43,551 --> 00:05:46,929
Eventually, Trevor cut me off.
107
00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:51,184
He cut everyone off from Lara, one by one.
108
00:05:51,267 --> 00:05:53,269
- Objection, Your Honor.
- [judge] Sustained.
109
00:05:53,353 --> 00:05:54,645
This is a fact witness.
110
00:05:54,729 --> 00:05:57,106
Jury will disregard
anything that's her opinion.
111
00:06:01,986 --> 00:06:03,112
Miss Patel,
112
00:06:03,196 --> 00:06:06,783
did Lara Elliott confide in you
about her relationship with her husband?
113
00:06:06,866 --> 00:06:09,911
Yes. She told me
more than once that she felt like...
114
00:06:12,705 --> 00:06:14,332
Like he had taken over her life.
115
00:06:15,875 --> 00:06:16,875
How so?
116
00:06:17,585 --> 00:06:19,962
Lara was the best coder I ever knew.
117
00:06:20,546 --> 00:06:24,300
She could solve problems
none of the rest of us could crack.
118
00:06:25,385 --> 00:06:27,136
She should've been a superstar.
119
00:06:28,596 --> 00:06:33,434
Instead, Trevor put her
in his shadow and kept her there.
120
00:06:33,518 --> 00:06:34,352
Objection.
121
00:06:34,435 --> 00:06:35,812
[judge] Sustained.
122
00:06:35,895 --> 00:06:37,980
First-hand observations only, Counsel.
123
00:06:38,773 --> 00:06:39,773
[clears throat]
124
00:06:41,526 --> 00:06:45,488
What specifically did you witness
Mr. Elliott do to isolate his wife?
125
00:06:45,571 --> 00:06:49,700
For one, he encouraged her to quit
her job to start Parallax with him.
126
00:06:49,784 --> 00:06:53,371
But in fairness, Parallax has been
very successful, hasn't it?
127
00:06:53,454 --> 00:06:57,792
Yes, but Parallax
has always been all about Trevor.
128
00:06:57,875 --> 00:07:00,461
Lara might have enjoyed
the money, but it was Trevor's baby.
129
00:07:00,545 --> 00:07:01,545
[Golantz] I see.
130
00:07:02,046 --> 00:07:04,382
And did this all
impact your relationship with Lara?
131
00:07:04,465 --> 00:07:05,716
Absolutely.
132
00:07:06,717 --> 00:07:09,262
We were part
of the same circle of friends.
133
00:07:09,345 --> 00:07:11,973
Overnight, she suddenly ghosted all of us.
134
00:07:13,391 --> 00:07:15,184
When did you last hear from her?
135
00:07:15,268 --> 00:07:17,520
A few days before she died.
136
00:07:19,063 --> 00:07:20,063
She...
137
00:07:22,233 --> 00:07:24,110
She reached out to ask me to lunch.
138
00:07:25,361 --> 00:07:28,698
I was surprised,
I hadn't talked to her in years.
139
00:07:30,741 --> 00:07:33,494
We were supposed to meet
the day after she was murdered.
140
00:07:38,749 --> 00:07:39,834
[Golantz] Miss Patel,
141
00:07:40,877 --> 00:07:43,588
do you know
why Lara Elliott reached out to you?
142
00:07:44,422 --> 00:07:45,422
No.
143
00:07:46,382 --> 00:07:49,802
She just said she had something
to tell me and needed to do it in person.
144
00:07:50,511 --> 00:07:54,432
She wanted to meet sooner,
but I had a project to finish up at work.
145
00:07:55,725 --> 00:07:57,518
I've regretted that ever since.
146
00:08:02,690 --> 00:08:03,858
No further questions.
147
00:08:04,901 --> 00:08:05,943
You've got this, right?
148
00:08:06,027 --> 00:08:08,571
Get your hands off me,
Trevor, the jury's watching.
149
00:08:11,449 --> 00:08:14,118
When was the last time
you spoke to my client?
150
00:08:14,869 --> 00:08:17,371
I don't know. It's been years.
151
00:08:17,997 --> 00:08:20,583
Okay. When was
the last time you contacted him?
152
00:08:20,666 --> 00:08:23,252
I don't understand.
153
00:08:23,336 --> 00:08:26,839
Isn't it a fact
that you sent Mr. Elliott an email
154
00:08:26,923 --> 00:08:28,883
just after his wife reached out to you?
155
00:08:28,966 --> 00:08:30,551
Yes, but I never heard back.
156
00:08:30,635 --> 00:08:34,055
In that email,
didn't you propose to have lunch with him?
157
00:08:34,639 --> 00:08:38,476
I threw it out there.
I thought maybe we could bury the hatchet.
158
00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:41,229
Isn't it true
that you've emailed Mr. Elliott
159
00:08:41,312 --> 00:08:43,523
over 20 times in the last five years?
160
00:08:43,606 --> 00:08:45,983
Emails to which he has rarely responded?
161
00:08:46,067 --> 00:08:48,861
I suppose. It's called networking.
162
00:08:48,945 --> 00:08:52,740
So, even though you felt like
Mr. Elliott was controlling Lara's life,
163
00:08:53,407 --> 00:08:56,410
you still tried to use
your relationship for personal gain?
164
00:08:56,494 --> 00:08:57,411
Objection.
165
00:08:57,495 --> 00:08:58,329
I'll rephrase.
166
00:08:58,412 --> 00:09:00,957
You hoped Trevor
could help you in your career?
167
00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:02,667
- No.
- [Mickey] No?
168
00:09:02,750 --> 00:09:05,545
How long has it been
since you were promoted at Chaos Games?
169
00:09:05,628 --> 00:09:06,879
Relevance, Your Honor.
170
00:09:06,963 --> 00:09:08,673
It goes directly to her motivation
171
00:09:08,756 --> 00:09:11,467
for contacting
and testifying against my client.
172
00:09:12,927 --> 00:09:13,927
Overruled.
173
00:09:15,763 --> 00:09:16,764
So?
174
00:09:17,848 --> 00:09:20,393
It's been a few years, I guess.
175
00:09:20,476 --> 00:09:22,436
Six, to be exact.
176
00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:27,483
You were hoping Trevor would give you
a fresh start at Parallax, weren't you?
177
00:09:27,567 --> 00:09:28,776
It wasn't like that.
178
00:09:28,859 --> 00:09:32,154
Everyone's always on the lookout
for the next opportunity, but I...
179
00:09:32,238 --> 00:09:34,532
Trevor never offered you that opportunity?
180
00:09:35,616 --> 00:09:37,618
Not in terms of a job. No.
181
00:09:39,662 --> 00:09:42,790
Well, you must have
resented him terribly for that.
182
00:09:42,873 --> 00:09:44,917
- Objection.
- No further questions.
183
00:09:55,845 --> 00:09:59,140
We knew they'd move to dismiss.
We're just working on a way to counter.
184
00:09:59,223 --> 00:10:01,309
Without your witness, Soto walks.
185
00:10:01,392 --> 00:10:04,437
We believe we've identified
the shooter who killed my witness.
186
00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:07,690
We just need the contents of his phone.
It may link him to Soto.
187
00:10:07,773 --> 00:10:11,444
Maggie, you're out of time.
And frankly, you're too close to this.
188
00:10:13,362 --> 00:10:15,948
He had a little girl, Janelle.
189
00:10:16,032 --> 00:10:19,285
She lost her father
because I pressured him to testify.
190
00:10:19,368 --> 00:10:22,455
You did your job,
it didn't work out. It happens.
191
00:10:22,538 --> 00:10:24,665
Negative attention
that would accompany a loss...
192
00:10:24,749 --> 00:10:26,542
Wait. So this is about press?
193
00:10:27,376 --> 00:10:29,754
This is about
the next iteration of this office.
194
00:10:29,837 --> 00:10:33,841
The old saying. "Before you can
do any good, you gotta get elected first."
195
00:10:35,301 --> 00:10:39,639
Whatever you have,
nail it down this week, otherwise...
196
00:10:46,395 --> 00:10:47,229
So?
197
00:10:47,313 --> 00:10:50,941
End of the week. It'll take a month
to subpoena Alvin's phone carrier.
198
00:10:51,025 --> 00:10:53,110
He's on parole, be easy to get a warrant.
199
00:10:53,194 --> 00:10:55,696
We can't serve him a warrant.
It'll tip Soto off.
200
00:10:55,780 --> 00:11:00,451
Maybe there's a way to get
his phone without tipping anybody off.
201
00:11:00,534 --> 00:11:01,534
Like what?
202
00:11:02,370 --> 00:11:03,370
Give me a day.
203
00:11:07,750 --> 00:11:08,793
I'm Eric Loomis.
204
00:11:08,876 --> 00:11:12,046
I work as a forensic technician
for LA County crime laboratory.
205
00:11:12,630 --> 00:11:15,257
[Golantz] What role were you asked
to play in this investigation?
206
00:11:15,341 --> 00:11:17,843
I was asked
to conduct tests for gunshot residue,
207
00:11:17,927 --> 00:11:20,388
or as we call it, GSR, on the defendant.
208
00:11:20,471 --> 00:11:22,223
And what did you conclude?
209
00:11:22,306 --> 00:11:25,976
That Mr. Elliott had large amounts
of GSR on his hands and clothes.
210
00:11:26,686 --> 00:11:27,686
I see.
211
00:11:28,229 --> 00:11:31,691
Mr. Loomis, are there ever
any false positives for GSR?
212
00:11:32,274 --> 00:11:35,152
There can be,
generally due to transference.
213
00:11:35,236 --> 00:11:36,946
- Transference?
- [Loomis] Yes.
214
00:11:37,029 --> 00:11:39,615
Say, for instance,
you're in a police station.
215
00:11:39,699 --> 00:11:42,284
There might be stray particles
of GSR in an interview room
216
00:11:42,368 --> 00:11:45,788
if a detective had been
at the shooting range, but trace amounts.
217
00:11:46,372 --> 00:11:47,832
Nothing like this.
218
00:11:47,915 --> 00:11:52,002
Mr. Elliott's hands and clothes
were covered in GSR.
219
00:11:52,628 --> 00:11:55,715
So, given the amount of GSR
you found on the defendant,
220
00:11:55,798 --> 00:11:59,844
you were able to dismiss the possibility
this could've been a false positive.
221
00:12:00,511 --> 00:12:01,511
That's correct.
222
00:12:27,413 --> 00:12:28,414
[sighs]
223
00:12:30,583 --> 00:12:31,625
[groans]
224
00:12:36,630 --> 00:12:38,466
Sir, that's a Gervasoni.
225
00:12:40,676 --> 00:12:44,555
You know, I got to admit,
I prefer the Maxalto.
226
00:12:45,598 --> 00:12:47,016
Superior wood working.
227
00:12:47,099 --> 00:12:49,268
Is there something I can help you with?
228
00:12:49,351 --> 00:12:50,351
Maybe.
229
00:12:50,936 --> 00:12:54,648
Does the name Glory Days ring a bell?
230
00:12:55,858 --> 00:12:56,858
I beg your pardon?
231
00:12:57,485 --> 00:12:58,569
She's a, uh...
232
00:12:59,820 --> 00:13:01,238
How can I put it delicately?
233
00:13:01,947 --> 00:13:04,700
...practitioner
of the world's oldest profession.
234
00:13:04,784 --> 00:13:09,330
- Mind you, I make no judgments.
- I have no idea what you're talking about.
235
00:13:09,413 --> 00:13:12,458
- But I have to ask you to leave.
- No problem, Raj.
236
00:13:13,667 --> 00:13:17,379
I'll just head over to your house,
see if your wife knows anything about it
237
00:13:17,463 --> 00:13:20,424
or your mother-in-law.
She lives with you too, right?
238
00:13:21,217 --> 00:13:23,636
It should be enlightening.
239
00:13:34,230 --> 00:13:35,272
[humming]
240
00:13:39,193 --> 00:13:42,029
Three, two, one.
241
00:13:42,112 --> 00:13:45,324
Okay. What do you want? Money?
242
00:13:45,407 --> 00:13:46,867
Relax, Raj.
243
00:13:47,618 --> 00:13:51,705
You keep on fleecing the 1%.
I just need a little bit of your help.
244
00:13:51,789 --> 00:13:53,499
- With what?
- [Cisco] Make a date.
245
00:13:54,166 --> 00:13:56,377
Bring Glory Days back to town,
246
00:13:56,460 --> 00:14:01,131
and your little secret
is between you, me, the Gervasoni.
247
00:14:05,094 --> 00:14:07,596
During your time at the County crime lab,
248
00:14:07,680 --> 00:14:09,974
how many cases
would you say you've handled?
249
00:14:10,724 --> 00:14:11,767
I'd say hundreds.
250
00:14:12,309 --> 00:14:15,604
Was one of those cases
called People vs. Oswaldo Ruiz?
251
00:14:15,688 --> 00:14:16,688
[laughs]
252
00:14:18,858 --> 00:14:21,777
- Yes, but...
- Objection. Relevance?
253
00:14:21,861 --> 00:14:24,613
It goes to the competence
of the witness, Your Honor.
254
00:14:24,697 --> 00:14:25,739
Overruled.
255
00:14:26,824 --> 00:14:30,035
Mr. Loomis, isn't it true
that the judge in the Ruiz case
256
00:14:30,119 --> 00:14:31,745
threw out your entire report?
257
00:14:31,829 --> 00:14:35,207
That was one case.
Like I said, I've worked hundreds.
258
00:14:35,291 --> 00:14:37,960
I'd like to enter
defense exhibit A, Your Honor.
259
00:14:42,590 --> 00:14:44,008
Sidebar, please, Your Honor?
260
00:14:47,636 --> 00:14:50,139
The People haven't been
given this document in discovery.
261
00:14:50,222 --> 00:14:53,809
Newly discovered evidence, Your Honor.
An anonymous whistleblower.
262
00:14:53,893 --> 00:14:56,896
Anonymous? Seriously?
There's no chain of custody.
263
00:14:56,979 --> 00:14:58,898
How do we know it's legitimate?
264
00:14:59,481 --> 00:15:02,526
Gee. I don't know, maybe I'll
ask the witness to verify it.
265
00:15:02,610 --> 00:15:03,611
Okay, stop it.
266
00:15:03,694 --> 00:15:06,071
You both
are throwing elbows with discovery.
267
00:15:06,780 --> 00:15:08,240
My tolerance is not infinite,
268
00:15:08,324 --> 00:15:10,826
but I'll allow Mr. Haller
to show the witness the exhibit.
269
00:15:10,910 --> 00:15:12,161
[Mickey] Thank you, Your Honor.
270
00:15:12,244 --> 00:15:15,247
Is this a copy
of the report you filed in the Ruiz case?
271
00:15:16,415 --> 00:15:18,584
The one that was thrown out by the court?
272
00:15:19,084 --> 00:15:21,378
- Yeah.
- And why was it thrown out?
273
00:15:21,462 --> 00:15:23,964
[Loomis] The defendant
had elements of GSR in his hands,
274
00:15:24,048 --> 00:15:27,092
but I failed to consider
he could've been exposed to them
275
00:15:27,176 --> 00:15:29,178
because of his work
as an industrial engineer.
276
00:15:29,261 --> 00:15:32,765
So, right before this case,
you filed a report that was so flawed,
277
00:15:32,848 --> 00:15:34,016
it was thrown out
278
00:15:34,099 --> 00:15:37,227
and now you want this jury
to accept your expert opinion?
279
00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:40,522
Well, it's not just my opinion.
280
00:15:43,567 --> 00:15:44,610
I'm sorry?
281
00:15:45,194 --> 00:15:47,029
This is professionally humiliating,
282
00:15:47,738 --> 00:15:50,866
but my supervisor, Dr. Tan,
283
00:15:50,950 --> 00:15:53,911
has been double-checking
all of my work since the Ruiz case.
284
00:15:53,994 --> 00:15:56,705
That's why her initials
are at the bottom of my report.
285
00:15:58,415 --> 00:15:59,415
Her initials?
286
00:16:07,549 --> 00:16:09,301
- Approach, Your Honor?
- Now what?
287
00:16:12,429 --> 00:16:15,432
My copy of the witness report
has no initials on it.
288
00:16:22,564 --> 00:16:25,401
It's true.
No initials on the defense's copy.
289
00:16:27,319 --> 00:16:30,948
It's simply a bad photocopy.
See where it's cut off at the bottom.
290
00:16:31,031 --> 00:16:33,575
There's just
the top of the initials there.
291
00:16:33,659 --> 00:16:38,539
Sorry, but we DAs don't have the resources
high-priced defense attorneys have.
292
00:16:38,622 --> 00:16:42,251
Are you representing to me as an officer
of the court, this an honest mistake?
293
00:16:42,334 --> 00:16:45,713
Absolutely, Your Honor.
I didn't know about the Ruiz case,
294
00:16:45,796 --> 00:16:48,549
so I would have no reason
to obscure the supervisor's initials.
295
00:16:50,718 --> 00:16:53,721
My apologies
to the court and to Mr. Haller.
296
00:16:54,304 --> 00:16:56,140
Your Honor, the jury...
297
00:16:56,223 --> 00:16:59,435
Mr. Haller, if you'd taken
the continuance the court had offered,
298
00:16:59,518 --> 00:17:02,646
perhaps you would've had time
to properly examine the document.
299
00:17:03,230 --> 00:17:04,606
The evidence stands.
300
00:17:05,190 --> 00:17:07,943
If you have any further questions
for this witness, ask.
301
00:17:08,027 --> 00:17:11,363
Otherwise, it's almost 4:30.
302
00:17:24,710 --> 00:17:26,295
"Nothing we weren't expecting."
303
00:17:26,378 --> 00:17:27,588
Were you expecting that?
304
00:17:27,671 --> 00:17:29,298
I told you we needed a continuance.
305
00:17:29,381 --> 00:17:31,675
You know full well
why that was impossible.
306
00:17:31,759 --> 00:17:33,594
This is my life, Mickey, and yours.
307
00:17:33,677 --> 00:17:36,597
The GSR is the most damning
evidence they have against you,
308
00:17:36,680 --> 00:17:38,140
you can't explain how it got there.
309
00:17:38,223 --> 00:17:39,850
I don't know.
310
00:17:39,933 --> 00:17:42,603
I reached down to touch my wife's body
311
00:17:42,686 --> 00:17:45,272
to see if there was
any chance she was still alive.
312
00:17:45,355 --> 00:17:47,232
Maybe that's how it got on my hands.
313
00:17:47,316 --> 00:17:49,151
The man said you were covered in it.
314
00:17:49,234 --> 00:17:51,195
It wasn't from firing a gun, Mickey.
315
00:17:51,278 --> 00:17:53,697
We had this case won
and you threw it away.
316
00:17:53,781 --> 00:17:54,781
No, that wasn't me.
317
00:17:54,823 --> 00:17:56,366
Fuck that. Of course, it was.
318
00:17:56,450 --> 00:17:57,576
Now look where we are.
319
00:17:57,659 --> 00:18:01,288
I wish Jerry was still my attorney
'cause at least he had a fucking plan.
320
00:18:15,803 --> 00:18:16,804
[Izzy] Heading home?
321
00:18:17,846 --> 00:18:19,014
The office.
322
00:18:19,098 --> 00:18:22,017
You can leave the car and go.
It's gonna be a long night.
323
00:18:22,101 --> 00:18:23,102
Copy that.
324
00:18:28,941 --> 00:18:31,151
[Mickey] We missed you
last night at the meeting.
325
00:18:32,986 --> 00:18:33,986
You went?
326
00:18:39,118 --> 00:18:41,829
My ex is in town,
doing a show. We had dinner.
327
00:18:41,912 --> 00:18:43,330
Oh, yeah? How did that go?
328
00:18:44,540 --> 00:18:45,624
[Izzy] Amazing.
329
00:18:46,542 --> 00:18:47,542
Awful.
330
00:18:49,753 --> 00:18:50,921
Sometimes both at once.
331
00:18:53,924 --> 00:18:57,344
But honestly, though,
better than I would've thought.
332
00:18:58,637 --> 00:19:01,056
That's good, then, right?
333
00:19:03,600 --> 00:19:04,600
Yeah.
334
00:19:07,896 --> 00:19:09,481
[device beeping]
335
00:19:09,565 --> 00:19:10,816
[dog barking]
336
00:19:22,077 --> 00:19:25,622
Okay, Mr. Geary,
that is enough for tonight.
337
00:19:26,999 --> 00:19:27,999
[Cisco] Hmm.
338
00:19:28,041 --> 00:19:29,041
What's "hmm"?
339
00:19:29,751 --> 00:19:32,462
Mickey told me
he was back working for the Road Saints,
340
00:19:32,546 --> 00:19:33,755
but there's no retainer.
341
00:19:33,839 --> 00:19:36,341
- [Lorna] You're going over the books?
- I'm curious.
342
00:19:36,925 --> 00:19:40,095
It's unlike Mickey
not to get his money in advance.
343
00:19:40,179 --> 00:19:43,015
Maybe they paid in cash
and it just hasn't shown up yet.
344
00:19:43,098 --> 00:19:45,642
Yeah. Maybe.
345
00:19:45,726 --> 00:19:46,852
- Cisco...
- [door opens]
346
00:19:51,857 --> 00:19:52,857
What?
347
00:19:53,442 --> 00:19:54,443
- Nothing.
- Nothing.
348
00:19:57,070 --> 00:19:57,905
[door closes]
349
00:19:57,988 --> 00:20:01,909
Let's not bother him with this
until after the Elliott trial, okay?
350
00:20:13,378 --> 00:20:14,378
Hey.
351
00:20:16,006 --> 00:20:17,090
We're gonna head out.
352
00:20:18,217 --> 00:20:19,468
Unless you need anything.
353
00:20:21,136 --> 00:20:23,555
I left you some food in the refrigerator.
354
00:20:23,639 --> 00:20:25,265
Quinoa salad with beets.
355
00:20:26,016 --> 00:20:27,809
It's brain food, you eat too much meat.
356
00:20:28,518 --> 00:20:29,518
Do I?
357
00:20:31,688 --> 00:20:33,357
I'm missing something, Lorna.
358
00:20:34,650 --> 00:20:37,486
I've been
missing something since I got this case.
359
00:20:37,569 --> 00:20:38,862
Now, I have no time.
360
00:20:40,822 --> 00:20:41,990
Eli Wyms.
361
00:20:42,074 --> 00:20:43,158
What about him?
362
00:20:43,242 --> 00:20:45,619
[Lorna] The guy fires off
an arsenal at a bunch of cops.
363
00:20:45,702 --> 00:20:49,581
And you got him a plea deal
for illegal discharge of a firearm.
364
00:20:49,665 --> 00:20:51,458
That is crazy good.
365
00:20:51,541 --> 00:20:53,043
What are you saying, Lorna?
366
00:20:54,127 --> 00:20:55,170
I am saying
367
00:20:56,171 --> 00:20:58,924
that you are Mickey fucking Haller.
368
00:21:01,551 --> 00:21:02,551
You got this.
369
00:21:04,137 --> 00:21:05,137
Okay?
370
00:21:09,017 --> 00:21:10,018
[door opens]
371
00:21:10,102 --> 00:21:11,102
[door closes]
372
00:21:14,731 --> 00:21:15,731
[sighs]
373
00:22:17,294 --> 00:22:18,879
[Mickey] I think better on the road.
374
00:22:19,463 --> 00:22:20,672
[Izzy] So you've said.
375
00:22:20,756 --> 00:22:24,801
One of the things about this job
is you can't just look at something once.
376
00:22:24,885 --> 00:22:29,222
You keep looking until you understand
every possible thing it could mean.
377
00:22:29,890 --> 00:22:32,601
Being in motion
helps me do that. I don't know why.
378
00:22:32,684 --> 00:22:35,645
To see what's right in front of you
is a constant struggle.
379
00:22:35,729 --> 00:22:37,105
Is that George Orwell?
380
00:22:37,189 --> 00:22:38,857
[Izzy] Mmm-mmm. My grandmother.
381
00:22:39,858 --> 00:22:41,526
Though now that you mention it...
382
00:24:36,391 --> 00:24:40,228
[Mickey] I had this client once,
she was a burglar. Not just any burglar.
383
00:24:40,312 --> 00:24:43,398
She was a safe cracker.
She used to tell me about it.
384
00:24:43,482 --> 00:24:46,401
The rush she got
when she solved the last digit
385
00:24:46,485 --> 00:24:47,986
and the gears started to move.
386
00:24:48,945 --> 00:24:51,490
Finding out
what was inside the safe was secondary.
387
00:24:51,573 --> 00:24:53,742
'Cause the jobs weren't about the money.
388
00:24:54,784 --> 00:24:58,830
They were about that magic moment
when the gears click into place.
389
00:25:00,373 --> 00:25:01,958
I never cracked a safe.
390
00:25:02,959 --> 00:25:04,836
But I know all about that moment.
391
00:25:08,548 --> 00:25:10,258
I found it. Jerry's magic bullet.
392
00:25:10,342 --> 00:25:14,095
I get it now, all of it. I get it.
And I need you two to help me fire it.
393
00:25:14,679 --> 00:25:15,514
Did you sleep here?
394
00:25:15,597 --> 00:25:18,016
Never mind.
The ballistics expert. What's her name?
395
00:25:18,099 --> 00:25:20,185
Dr. Arslanian. I sent her the file.
396
00:25:20,268 --> 00:25:22,771
But nothing she could say
would contradict the State's case.
397
00:25:22,854 --> 00:25:25,273
Don't worry.
Get her to court. I'll deal with it.
398
00:25:25,357 --> 00:25:28,443
Remember the guy from the video?
I know who he is. Bring him, too.
399
00:25:28,527 --> 00:25:30,153
All right, come on, let's go.
400
00:25:30,779 --> 00:25:31,780
Good. Come on.
401
00:25:34,491 --> 00:25:36,576
[Mickey] Mr. Muniz,
what do you do for a living?
402
00:25:36,660 --> 00:25:38,328
I'm a freelance videographer.
403
00:25:38,411 --> 00:25:39,579
Videographer of what?
404
00:25:40,914 --> 00:25:44,042
I monitor the police scanners
for high-profile crimes.
405
00:25:44,125 --> 00:25:47,420
Then I go shoot video
of the crime scenes and sell it to media.
406
00:25:47,504 --> 00:25:50,215
And did you shoot
any video relating to Trevor Elliott?
407
00:25:50,966 --> 00:25:51,800
I did.
408
00:25:51,883 --> 00:25:54,135
The defense would like to mark exhibit B.
409
00:25:56,513 --> 00:25:58,640
I shot for over an hour.
410
00:25:58,723 --> 00:26:01,518
But it's Mr. Elliott sitting
in the back of a patrol car
411
00:26:01,601 --> 00:26:03,186
until homicide detectives arrive.
412
00:26:03,270 --> 00:26:05,605
Was that the only video
you shot in Malibu that day?
413
00:26:05,689 --> 00:26:09,985
Well, that day, yes,
but I was also in Malibu the night before.
414
00:26:10,652 --> 00:26:13,572
- Why was that?
- Objection. What possible relevance?
415
00:26:13,655 --> 00:26:16,157
All will be revealed
in the fullness of time.
416
00:26:16,241 --> 00:26:18,076
Keep the fishing brief.
417
00:26:19,286 --> 00:26:22,539
There was an incident
around 2:00 a.m. up in Topanga State Park.
418
00:26:22,622 --> 00:26:25,083
A guy shot off rounds
at some Sheriff's deputies.
419
00:26:25,166 --> 00:26:27,127
Is that footage on here, too?
420
00:26:27,210 --> 00:26:28,210
Yes, sir.
421
00:26:33,383 --> 00:26:36,636
Objection, Your Honor. Again, relevance?
422
00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:39,264
This other footage
wasn't turned over in discovery.
423
00:26:39,347 --> 00:26:40,223
It was, actually.
424
00:26:40,307 --> 00:26:44,060
The entire contents of the footage
was put into evidence, Your Honor.
425
00:26:44,144 --> 00:26:46,271
It's not my fault
you didn't watch the whole thing.
426
00:26:46,354 --> 00:26:47,939
Get where you going.
427
00:26:48,023 --> 00:26:49,524
Almost there, Judge.
428
00:26:49,608 --> 00:26:53,320
You heard over your scanner
about a shooting in Topanga State Park?
429
00:26:53,403 --> 00:26:54,446
Yes.
430
00:27:05,790 --> 00:27:07,250
Recall the shooter's name?
431
00:27:08,293 --> 00:27:10,211
Uh, I believe it was Eli Wyms.
432
00:27:10,295 --> 00:27:12,839
He was a sniper in the Marines, I heard.
433
00:27:13,965 --> 00:27:16,259
Indeed, he was. Thank you, Mr. Muniz.
434
00:27:16,343 --> 00:27:18,011
No further questions, Your Honor.
435
00:27:22,307 --> 00:27:23,307
[scoffs]
436
00:27:26,811 --> 00:27:30,231
Mr. Muniz, I'm sorry,
but I'm just trying to connect the dots
437
00:27:30,315 --> 00:27:31,858
on how this has anything to do
438
00:27:31,941 --> 00:27:34,444
with the murders
of Lara Elliott and Jan Rilz.
439
00:27:34,527 --> 00:27:38,615
Were any of the same deputies involved
in the arrest of Mr. Wyms and Mr. Elliott?
440
00:27:39,658 --> 00:27:40,867
I don't think so.
441
00:27:40,950 --> 00:27:43,703
The two incidents
took place about 12 hours apart.
442
00:27:44,287 --> 00:27:45,830
So, are you aware
443
00:27:45,914 --> 00:27:48,708
of any connection at all
between these two crimes?
444
00:27:48,792 --> 00:27:50,960
No, sir. I just shot footage of both.
445
00:27:51,044 --> 00:27:52,044
[inhales]
446
00:27:52,754 --> 00:27:54,422
Busy day for Malibu. [exhales]
447
00:27:54,506 --> 00:27:55,506
Oh.
448
00:27:56,424 --> 00:27:57,592
No further questions.
449
00:28:00,303 --> 00:28:01,763
What the hell was that about?
450
00:28:01,846 --> 00:28:02,972
[cell phone buzzes]
451
00:28:08,687 --> 00:28:09,687
[inaudible]
452
00:28:17,445 --> 00:28:21,157
Mr. Aquino, I need you
to step out now so I can search you.
453
00:28:21,241 --> 00:28:22,742
Is there a problem, Officer?
454
00:28:22,826 --> 00:28:25,203
We ran your license,
came back you're on parole.
455
00:28:25,286 --> 00:28:28,331
That gives us the right to search
you and your vehicle for contraband.
456
00:28:28,415 --> 00:28:31,209
Step out of the vehicle.
Put your hands on your head.
457
00:28:35,422 --> 00:28:36,923
This is some bullshit.
458
00:28:38,049 --> 00:28:40,635
Focus on doing
what we tell you to do, sir.
459
00:28:50,019 --> 00:28:51,896
I'm telling you, I didn't do nothing.
460
00:28:51,980 --> 00:28:53,940
[officer] Then you'll be
on your way in no time.
461
00:29:11,624 --> 00:29:13,293
I can only buy you ten minutes.
462
00:29:23,386 --> 00:29:24,971
Cisco's about 15 minutes out.
463
00:29:25,764 --> 00:29:27,766
- All right.
- You sure this is gonna work?
464
00:29:28,349 --> 00:29:30,018
[Mickey] We're about to find out.
465
00:29:32,604 --> 00:29:34,147
All right, just fix that.
466
00:29:38,359 --> 00:29:39,359
[bailiff] All rise.
467
00:29:42,739 --> 00:29:43,865
Be seated.
468
00:29:49,788 --> 00:29:51,873
Mr. Haller, ready with your next witness?
469
00:29:52,957 --> 00:29:55,126
Yeah, actually, Your Honor.
I was just, uh...
470
00:29:55,794 --> 00:29:57,337
- [door opens]
- I, uh...
471
00:29:57,921 --> 00:30:01,049
Can I have just one moment
to confer with a member of my staff?
472
00:30:01,132 --> 00:30:02,759
- Quickly.
- Thank you, Your Honor.
473
00:30:03,510 --> 00:30:04,677
[whispering]
474
00:30:07,806 --> 00:30:09,057
[whispering] Thanks, man.
475
00:30:09,140 --> 00:30:10,391
Thank you, Your Honor.
476
00:30:10,475 --> 00:30:12,685
The defense
calls Dennis Byrne to the stand.
477
00:30:13,478 --> 00:30:15,480
Objection. Sidebar?
478
00:30:17,524 --> 00:30:20,109
This witness
was not on the defense's list.
479
00:30:20,193 --> 00:30:23,112
That's because
I just learned his name a few seconds ago.
480
00:30:23,196 --> 00:30:25,031
Putting on a witness
you've never spoken to?
481
00:30:25,114 --> 00:30:26,574
I know who he is.
482
00:30:26,658 --> 00:30:30,161
This isn't the first time somebody's
put on a witness that wasn't on the list.
483
00:30:30,245 --> 00:30:33,164
I haven't had time to prepare
for questioning this witness.
484
00:30:33,248 --> 00:30:35,875
That makes two of us.
We're in the same boat here.
485
00:30:37,919 --> 00:30:40,004
What's good for the goose, Mr. Golantz.
486
00:30:40,088 --> 00:30:42,924
- But this is it, Mr. Haller.
- Thank you, Your Honor.
487
00:30:50,139 --> 00:30:53,601
Can you please tell the jury
what you do for a living, Mr. Byrne?
488
00:30:54,269 --> 00:30:57,105
I work as a mechanic
for the LA County Sheriff's Office.
489
00:30:57,188 --> 00:30:59,607
- So, you maintain police cars?
- Yes.
490
00:30:59,691 --> 00:31:01,609
[Mickey] Those vehicles
got a lot of mileage.
491
00:31:02,360 --> 00:31:03,360
Must be a busy job.
492
00:31:03,403 --> 00:31:05,738
[Dennis] Some of them
are in use for three shifts a day.
493
00:31:05,822 --> 00:31:08,992
So yeah, keeping 'em
up and running keeps us pretty busy.
494
00:31:09,075 --> 00:31:11,578
[Mickey] Mr. Byrne,
I'd like to draw your attention
495
00:31:11,661 --> 00:31:14,205
back to the early morning
of September 6th.
496
00:31:14,289 --> 00:31:16,374
There was an incident
in Topanga State Park.
497
00:31:16,457 --> 00:31:19,252
A drunk ex-Marine
shot at some Sheriff's deputies,
498
00:31:19,335 --> 00:31:20,712
do you recall any of that?
499
00:31:20,795 --> 00:31:22,255
[Dennis] Yeah, I remember it.
500
00:31:22,338 --> 00:31:24,883
One of the SUVs
had its spotlight shot out.
501
00:31:24,966 --> 00:31:26,467
I brought the records with me.
502
00:31:26,551 --> 00:31:27,886
Objection. Relevance.
503
00:31:27,969 --> 00:31:31,806
Again, nobody is accusing
Trevor Elliott of firing at a police car.
504
00:31:31,890 --> 00:31:33,391
Get to the point, Mr. Haller.
505
00:31:37,520 --> 00:31:39,272
This is Mr. Wyms' arrest.
506
00:31:42,984 --> 00:31:46,404
Is that the same vehicle,
the one brought to you to be repaired?
507
00:31:47,030 --> 00:31:49,198
Yeah. You can see the shot out spotlight.
508
00:31:50,658 --> 00:31:53,494
How much time
did you have to repair that vehicle?
509
00:31:54,078 --> 00:31:56,372
An hour.
We needed to get it back on the street.
510
00:31:56,456 --> 00:31:57,456
I see.
511
00:31:57,957 --> 00:32:00,835
Do you normally
clean the cars that are brought to you?
512
00:32:01,628 --> 00:32:03,004
Exterior? Interior?
513
00:32:03,087 --> 00:32:06,341
Normally, but not this one.
Like I said, we only had an hour.
514
00:32:06,424 --> 00:32:09,302
All we could do
was repair the light and fill it with gas.
515
00:32:11,512 --> 00:32:13,431
Thank you. No further questions.
516
00:32:21,439 --> 00:32:23,816
I have no questions
for this witness. [scoffs]
517
00:32:25,068 --> 00:32:26,069
Witness is excused.
518
00:32:27,695 --> 00:32:29,030
Anyone else, Mr. Haller?
519
00:32:29,113 --> 00:32:33,159
Yes, Your Honor, the defense
calls Dr. Myriam Arslanian to the stand.
520
00:32:37,497 --> 00:32:39,791
[Mickey] Dr. Arslanian,
can you please tell the jury
521
00:32:39,874 --> 00:32:41,834
your area of expertise and credentials?
522
00:32:41,918 --> 00:32:43,503
I am a forensic scientist.
523
00:32:43,586 --> 00:32:48,675
I have a BA from Harvard in engineering
and a master's degree and PhD from MIT.
524
00:32:48,758 --> 00:32:49,968
Wow. Is that it?
525
00:32:50,635 --> 00:32:51,803
[audience laughs]
526
00:32:51,886 --> 00:32:53,763
Actually, while I was at Harvard,
527
00:32:53,846 --> 00:32:56,933
I also got a bachelor's degree
from Berklee College of Music.
528
00:32:57,016 --> 00:33:00,186
- I went to both at the same time.
- You have a music degree, too?
529
00:33:00,269 --> 00:33:01,688
I like to sing.
530
00:33:01,771 --> 00:33:02,855
Ah.
531
00:33:04,148 --> 00:33:07,193
Your focus
in forensic science includes ballistics?
532
00:33:07,276 --> 00:33:08,319
It does.
533
00:33:08,403 --> 00:33:09,487
It's our lucky day
534
00:33:09,570 --> 00:33:11,990
because I have a report
from the County crime lab
535
00:33:12,073 --> 00:33:15,034
asserting that my client, Trevor Elliott,
536
00:33:15,118 --> 00:33:17,996
had a large amount
of gunshot residue on his hands.
537
00:33:18,079 --> 00:33:20,748
- Are you familiar with this?
- Yes, I've reviewed it.
538
00:33:20,832 --> 00:33:24,544
- What is your assessment of it?
- Oh. I agree with it. Absolutely.
539
00:33:24,627 --> 00:33:28,381
So, you agree that my client
had a large amount of gunshot residue
540
00:33:28,464 --> 00:33:30,717
on his hands and his clothes?
541
00:33:30,800 --> 00:33:32,301
A massive amount, actually.
542
00:33:32,385 --> 00:33:36,014
Much more than you'd normally have
from just firing a gun once or twice.
543
00:33:36,806 --> 00:33:38,474
Is there any way that Mr. Elliott
544
00:33:38,558 --> 00:33:41,644
could have gotten
that much gunshot residue on his hands
545
00:33:41,728 --> 00:33:43,229
without actually firing a gun?
546
00:33:44,105 --> 00:33:46,482
Only through what we call transference.
547
00:33:46,566 --> 00:33:47,817
Transference?
548
00:33:47,900 --> 00:33:50,194
I believe
the People's expert mentioned that.
549
00:33:50,278 --> 00:33:51,278
Can you elaborate?
550
00:33:52,030 --> 00:33:53,614
If you're exposed to something,
551
00:33:53,698 --> 00:33:56,034
you can pick it up
on your hands or clothes,
552
00:33:56,117 --> 00:34:00,371
but given
the amount of residue on Mr. Elliott,
553
00:34:00,455 --> 00:34:05,084
he would have to have been exposed
to a truly overwhelming amount of GSR.
554
00:34:05,168 --> 00:34:08,379
Dr. Arslanian,
I'd like you to take a look at this video.
555
00:34:11,466 --> 00:34:14,510
Do you see a man
being loaded into a Sheriff's vehicle?
556
00:34:14,594 --> 00:34:15,594
Yes.
557
00:34:17,972 --> 00:34:20,725
[Mickey] We established
that this man's name is Eli Wyms
558
00:34:20,808 --> 00:34:24,020
and that he fired
over 90 rounds of ammunition that night.
559
00:34:24,103 --> 00:34:26,814
He was then loaded
into the back of this patrol vehicle
560
00:34:26,898 --> 00:34:28,399
and driven to the County jail.
561
00:34:28,483 --> 00:34:30,318
Your Honor, I must object.
562
00:34:30,401 --> 00:34:31,986
I don't think so, Mr. Golantz.
563
00:34:32,070 --> 00:34:33,071
Overruled.
564
00:34:33,654 --> 00:34:36,866
[Mickey] Dr. Arslanian,
in a situation like I just described,
565
00:34:36,949 --> 00:34:38,618
how much gunshot residue
566
00:34:38,701 --> 00:34:41,579
would be transferred
into the backseat of that patrol car?
567
00:34:42,163 --> 00:34:45,249
If someone fired 90 rounds of ammunition,
568
00:34:45,333 --> 00:34:50,630
the amount of gunshot residue
would be off the charts.
569
00:34:50,713 --> 00:34:52,006
Objection. Speculation.
570
00:34:52,090 --> 00:34:53,341
Overruled.
571
00:34:53,424 --> 00:34:57,053
Can you please read the number
on the top of that patrol vehicle,
572
00:34:57,136 --> 00:34:59,180
the one with the spotlight shot out?
573
00:34:59,263 --> 00:35:00,890
Mmm-hmm. It says 112.
574
00:35:01,474 --> 00:35:02,558
112.
575
00:35:08,272 --> 00:35:10,024
This is my client, Trevor Elliott,
576
00:35:10,108 --> 00:35:13,611
being loaded into the back
of a Sheriff's vehicle 12 hours later.
577
00:35:13,694 --> 00:35:16,239
Can you read the number
on the top of that vehicle?
578
00:35:17,156 --> 00:35:18,199
It's 112.
579
00:35:19,075 --> 00:35:21,911
[Mickey] We established
that this vehicle was not cleaned
580
00:35:21,994 --> 00:35:26,541
between the time Mr. Wyms rode in it
and the time Mr. Elliott was placed in it.
581
00:35:27,166 --> 00:35:31,420
So, Dr. Arslanian, in your opinion,
could that account for the gunshot residue
582
00:35:31,504 --> 00:35:32,588
on my client's hands?
583
00:35:33,172 --> 00:35:37,218
In my opinion,
given the staggering amount of GSR,
584
00:35:37,301 --> 00:35:39,554
it's the only thing
that could account for it.
585
00:35:42,807 --> 00:35:43,808
[murmuring]
586
00:35:55,319 --> 00:35:57,113
[Izzy] What's it like, that moment?
587
00:35:57,613 --> 00:35:58,698
[Mickey] What moment?
588
00:35:59,365 --> 00:36:01,367
The moment when you know you've won.
589
00:36:02,618 --> 00:36:04,203
You never really know for sure.
590
00:36:04,287 --> 00:36:06,998
Sometimes,
it's not enough just to create doubt.
591
00:36:07,081 --> 00:36:09,375
If your client is the hero of the story,
592
00:36:10,042 --> 00:36:12,879
sometimes you gotta
give the jury a villain, too.
593
00:36:19,135 --> 00:36:20,469
Let's bring this home.
594
00:36:25,016 --> 00:36:26,976
[Mickey] Hello again, Detective Kinder.
595
00:36:27,560 --> 00:36:28,477
Counsel.
596
00:36:28,561 --> 00:36:29,770
Last time you were here,
597
00:36:29,854 --> 00:36:32,231
I asked you
about a man named Anton Shavar.
598
00:36:32,315 --> 00:36:33,149
Do you recall?
599
00:36:33,232 --> 00:36:34,150
Yes.
600
00:36:34,233 --> 00:36:36,068
[Mickey] I said
there was evidence Mr. Shavar
601
00:36:36,152 --> 00:36:38,613
threatened Jan Rilz
for having an affair with his wife.
602
00:36:38,696 --> 00:36:42,408
You told the court
you knew nothing about this, correct?
603
00:36:42,491 --> 00:36:43,659
That's correct.
604
00:36:45,244 --> 00:36:47,413
You know anything more
as you sit here today?
605
00:36:49,207 --> 00:36:51,834
I know that
no restraining order was ever granted.
606
00:36:51,918 --> 00:36:55,046
But you do know one was filed
by Mr. Rilz against Mr. Shavar.
607
00:36:55,963 --> 00:36:57,340
I'm now aware of that, yes.
608
00:36:57,423 --> 00:37:02,136
Now tell me something, Detective,
if you discover that a murder victim
609
00:37:02,220 --> 00:37:05,848
had filed for a restraining order
because someone threatened to kill him,
610
00:37:05,932 --> 00:37:09,727
wouldn't that be a strong lead
you would normally investigate?
611
00:37:09,810 --> 00:37:11,062
[Kinder] Of course it would.
612
00:37:11,145 --> 00:37:15,733
But as I already testified,
we weren't aware of Mr. Shavar until now.
613
00:37:16,317 --> 00:37:19,445
Does that mean
you still haven't questioned Mr. Shavar?
614
00:37:20,196 --> 00:37:21,196
Correct.
615
00:37:21,864 --> 00:37:23,407
Oh. No further questions.
616
00:37:26,077 --> 00:37:28,329
Did looking into Anton Shavar
617
00:37:28,412 --> 00:37:30,790
change your opinion
as to the defendant's guilt?
618
00:37:30,873 --> 00:37:32,083
No, it did not.
619
00:37:32,166 --> 00:37:33,251
And why is that?
620
00:37:33,334 --> 00:37:36,545
For one thing,
we looked into Mr. Shavar's whereabouts.
621
00:37:36,629 --> 00:37:41,717
Turns out, he was in Miami on business
during the time of the murders.
622
00:37:41,801 --> 00:37:46,013
Thank you. Nothing further.
Your Honor, may we approach?
623
00:37:46,597 --> 00:37:47,597
[judge] Mmm-hmm.
624
00:37:48,099 --> 00:37:48,933
At this rate,
625
00:37:49,016 --> 00:37:51,560
- I should start charging you both rent.
- [audience laughs]
626
00:37:51,644 --> 00:37:54,981
It is obvious where this is going.
Mr. Haller intends to call Mr. Shavar
627
00:37:55,064 --> 00:37:56,482
to paint him as a straw man.
628
00:37:56,565 --> 00:37:57,775
Now you're reading my mind.
629
00:37:57,858 --> 00:38:00,027
If they wanted
to make this third-party culpability,
630
00:38:00,111 --> 00:38:02,655
they should've filed for it,
court would've held a hearing.
631
00:38:02,738 --> 00:38:04,824
They're trying to slip it
through the back door.
632
00:38:04,907 --> 00:38:07,618
If the police
had run a thorough investigation,
633
00:38:07,702 --> 00:38:08,869
I'm sure Jerry Vincent
634
00:38:08,953 --> 00:38:11,289
would've filed
a third-party motion months ago.
635
00:38:11,372 --> 00:38:13,749
People move
to suppress any third-party defense,
636
00:38:13,833 --> 00:38:15,960
both on procedural
and substantive grounds.
637
00:38:16,043 --> 00:38:17,253
I blew up your case.
638
00:38:17,336 --> 00:38:20,589
A case that was built
on exactly the same foundation as this,
639
00:38:20,673 --> 00:38:21,799
a husband scorned.
640
00:38:21,882 --> 00:38:23,384
The core of our entire defense
641
00:38:23,467 --> 00:38:25,928
has always been
that the police got tunnel vision.
642
00:38:26,012 --> 00:38:28,139
They got their man, they stopped looking.
643
00:38:29,890 --> 00:38:31,142
[inhales deeply]
644
00:38:32,143 --> 00:38:33,143
Call your witness.
645
00:38:34,270 --> 00:38:35,896
[Mickey] Please state your name.
646
00:38:36,814 --> 00:38:37,982
Anton Shavar.
647
00:38:38,065 --> 00:38:39,900
[Mickey] What do you do, Mr. Shavar?
648
00:38:40,693 --> 00:38:43,321
I run a private security
and intelligence firm.
649
00:38:43,404 --> 00:38:44,905
That's an interesting job.
650
00:38:44,989 --> 00:38:46,407
How did you get into that?
651
00:38:47,158 --> 00:38:49,410
I have a background
in intelligence in Israel.
652
00:38:50,578 --> 00:38:51,954
So you were in the Mossad?
653
00:38:53,164 --> 00:38:54,332
I did not say that.
654
00:38:54,415 --> 00:38:57,084
But I need you to answer the question.
Were you in the Mossad?
655
00:38:57,168 --> 00:39:00,463
An organization known
to carry out targeted assassinations.
656
00:39:00,546 --> 00:39:02,673
- Objection!
- Your Honor, if I may?
657
00:39:04,383 --> 00:39:05,468
Who are you?
658
00:39:05,551 --> 00:39:07,011
I'm Mr. Shavar's counsel.
659
00:39:07,094 --> 00:39:09,263
Mr. Shavar's past employment in Israel,
660
00:39:09,347 --> 00:39:12,266
whatever it may be,
has no bearing on this case.
661
00:39:12,350 --> 00:39:16,312
It could jeopardize the national security
of one of this country's closest allies.
662
00:39:17,313 --> 00:39:19,190
It's all right. I'll take that as a yes.
663
00:39:19,273 --> 00:39:20,524
Move to strike.
664
00:39:21,108 --> 00:39:24,487
Granted. The jury
will disregard Mr. Haller's last remark.
665
00:39:25,571 --> 00:39:29,408
Very well, let's move on.
What was your relationship with Jan Rilz?
666
00:39:30,242 --> 00:39:33,496
I didn't have one.
We only met that one time.
667
00:39:33,579 --> 00:39:34,914
When you threatened to kill him?
668
00:39:34,997 --> 00:39:38,417
I didn't threaten to kill him.
I told him to stay away from my wife.
669
00:39:39,293 --> 00:39:40,293
Because you learned
670
00:39:40,336 --> 00:39:43,130
that he was having
an affair with your wife?
671
00:39:43,214 --> 00:39:45,383
Now my ex-wife, but yes.
672
00:39:45,466 --> 00:39:47,426
I apologize. Now your ex-wife.
673
00:39:47,510 --> 00:39:49,804
Did learning
about her affair with Mr. Rilz
674
00:39:49,887 --> 00:39:51,430
play any role in your divorce?
675
00:39:51,514 --> 00:39:54,016
- What the hell do you think?
- Mr. Shavar.
676
00:39:54,100 --> 00:39:55,684
Apologies, Your Honor.
677
00:39:57,353 --> 00:40:00,731
This is not a pleasant experience
talking about the worst thing in my life
678
00:40:00,815 --> 00:40:02,566
to a room full of strangers.
679
00:40:04,735 --> 00:40:08,823
Yes. My wife's infidelity
played a role in our divorce.
680
00:40:09,907 --> 00:40:11,909
How did you learn about the affair?
681
00:40:12,660 --> 00:40:13,786
A husband knows.
682
00:40:13,869 --> 00:40:15,454
You had her followed?
683
00:40:19,458 --> 00:40:21,877
- Yes.
- By employees of your company?
684
00:40:21,961 --> 00:40:23,421
I pay them for their time.
685
00:40:23,504 --> 00:40:26,340
And after they confirmed
that your wife was cheating,
686
00:40:26,424 --> 00:40:29,385
you went to confront
Jan Rilz at his yoga studio?
687
00:40:29,468 --> 00:40:31,011
To tell him to stay away.
688
00:40:31,095 --> 00:40:33,055
[Mickey] All you said was "Stay away"?
689
00:40:33,139 --> 00:40:36,767
That's enough to get a man to apply
for a restraining order against you?
690
00:40:36,851 --> 00:40:40,229
I was angry.
I imagine I used some strong language.
691
00:40:40,896 --> 00:40:45,443
But I was in Miami on the day
Mr. Rilz was murdered. You know this.
692
00:40:45,526 --> 00:40:48,237
I also know
your employees trailed your ex-wife.
693
00:40:48,320 --> 00:40:50,656
- Were they in Mossad?
- Objection, Your Honor.
694
00:40:50,739 --> 00:40:52,658
On what basis? Too much relevance?
695
00:40:52,741 --> 00:40:55,035
Sustained. Careful, Mr. Haller.
696
00:40:57,371 --> 00:41:00,332
How many of your employees
are licensed to carry a gun?
697
00:41:01,375 --> 00:41:02,668
All of them, naturally.
698
00:41:03,252 --> 00:41:04,920
We provide high-level security,
699
00:41:05,838 --> 00:41:08,090
but that doesn't make me a violent man.
700
00:41:08,174 --> 00:41:09,967
So you're not a violent man?
701
00:41:10,676 --> 00:41:13,345
No. I'm a careful man.
702
00:41:13,888 --> 00:41:17,308
Right. Your Honor, the defense
would like to enter defense exhibit G.
703
00:41:19,560 --> 00:41:21,854
Funny. I must not have that one.
704
00:41:21,937 --> 00:41:24,064
It's impeachment evidence, Your Honor.
705
00:41:24,148 --> 00:41:27,067
Mr. Shavar
testified that he's not a violent man.
706
00:41:27,151 --> 00:41:29,612
I have a video
that directly impeaches that.
707
00:41:30,905 --> 00:41:31,905
Thank you.
708
00:41:34,366 --> 00:41:37,703
You come near me or my family again,
I'll break you like a toy.
709
00:41:39,079 --> 00:41:40,206
[Cisco] Is that a gun?
710
00:41:40,289 --> 00:41:42,416
[Shavar] You don't wanna find out.
711
00:41:42,500 --> 00:41:44,585
Stay the fuck away from my wife!
712
00:41:47,296 --> 00:41:52,176
So you didn't just confront Mr. Rilz,
you confronted my investigator as well.
713
00:41:53,427 --> 00:41:54,845
I was simply making a point.
714
00:41:54,929 --> 00:41:57,306
- By threatening to kill him?
- Objection!
715
00:41:57,389 --> 00:42:00,059
Withdrawn.
No further questions, Your Honor.
716
00:42:05,147 --> 00:42:07,525
I have two questions for you, Mr. Shavar.
717
00:42:07,608 --> 00:42:08,901
Did you kill Jan Rilz?
718
00:42:08,984 --> 00:42:10,444
Of course not.
719
00:42:11,028 --> 00:42:14,406
Did you instruct any of your staff
or anyone to kill Jan Rilz?
720
00:42:15,491 --> 00:42:16,742
Absolutely not.
721
00:42:17,326 --> 00:42:18,326
Thank you.
722
00:42:23,916 --> 00:42:24,916
[elevator dings]
723
00:42:46,397 --> 00:42:47,397
[sighs]
724
00:42:57,992 --> 00:43:00,452
You know for a fact
I had nothing to do with this.
725
00:43:02,037 --> 00:43:03,455
The things I know for a fact
726
00:43:03,539 --> 00:43:05,666
are things
that happen in front of my face.
727
00:43:07,918 --> 00:43:10,129
I have a reputation, a business.
728
00:43:11,297 --> 00:43:13,007
I have people who work for me,
729
00:43:13,090 --> 00:43:15,509
who rely on my good name
to keep them employed.
730
00:43:16,176 --> 00:43:17,845
Did you think about any of that
731
00:43:17,928 --> 00:43:20,472
before you decided
to drag that name through the mud?
732
00:43:21,056 --> 00:43:23,642
All I did
was ask you some questions, Mr. Shavar.
733
00:43:25,769 --> 00:43:28,856
Lawyers, you're all the fucking same.
734
00:43:30,524 --> 00:43:31,609
[elevator dings]
735
00:43:40,200 --> 00:43:42,828
[Lankford] Good news is,
from the GPS on his phone,
736
00:43:42,911 --> 00:43:46,790
we were able to track down Aquino
to within quarter mile of the murder site
737
00:43:46,874 --> 00:43:48,584
ten minutes before it happened.
738
00:43:48,667 --> 00:43:49,543
But?
739
00:43:49,627 --> 00:43:53,464
At that point, he either turned off
his phone or the battery died.
740
00:43:53,547 --> 00:43:55,132
We don't have a signal after that.
741
00:43:56,717 --> 00:43:58,636
Sounds like a man with something to hide.
742
00:43:58,719 --> 00:44:01,639
It's circumstantial.
But yeah, guy's our shooter.
743
00:44:01,722 --> 00:44:02,848
He's gotta be.
744
00:44:04,183 --> 00:44:07,811
Can I ask you something?
What did they pull him over for?
745
00:44:09,271 --> 00:44:10,814
Busted tail light, I think.
746
00:44:11,565 --> 00:44:12,608
How'd it get busted?
747
00:44:12,691 --> 00:44:14,318
How the hell would I know?
748
00:44:15,611 --> 00:44:17,321
Spent my rookie years in South LA.
749
00:44:17,404 --> 00:44:19,907
Some cops,
they wanna search a gangbanger's car,
750
00:44:19,990 --> 00:44:21,450
they got all kinds of tricks.
751
00:44:22,701 --> 00:44:24,161
You're accusing me of something?
752
00:44:24,870 --> 00:44:26,664
Did politics finally get into you?
753
00:44:26,747 --> 00:44:28,415
No, just need this to be airtight.
754
00:44:28,499 --> 00:44:30,167
Bottom line, it doesn't matter.
755
00:44:30,250 --> 00:44:33,045
There's not enough
on the phone to nail down Aquino.
756
00:44:33,128 --> 00:44:35,964
We gotta go old school,
we gotta get him to turn on Soto.
757
00:44:41,887 --> 00:44:43,972
[chuckles] I don't know how to thank you.
758
00:44:44,765 --> 00:44:47,893
Well, you paid me.
That's a pretty good start.
759
00:44:50,229 --> 00:44:54,108
I'm sorry for what I said,
about wishing Jerry was still my lawyer.
760
00:44:55,401 --> 00:44:56,735
He was a good attorney.
761
00:44:57,695 --> 00:44:58,696
But you...
762
00:45:01,490 --> 00:45:02,991
I appreciate that, Trevor.
763
00:45:04,076 --> 00:45:06,578
And it's okay.
You're under a lot of pressure.
764
00:45:06,662 --> 00:45:10,666
The good news is,
today I think we got to reasonable doubt.
765
00:45:11,333 --> 00:45:14,920
We gave the jury somebody else
to blame. That's all we needed to do.
766
00:45:15,003 --> 00:45:17,047
I agree. Almost all.
767
00:45:19,007 --> 00:45:20,384
What do you mean?
768
00:45:21,844 --> 00:45:25,055
I told you. I need to win
in the court of public opinion, too.
769
00:45:25,139 --> 00:45:27,891
And I told you
that no lawyer can give you that.
770
00:45:27,975 --> 00:45:30,269
Of course, only I can do that.
771
00:45:30,352 --> 00:45:31,812
That's why I need to testify.
772
00:45:33,021 --> 00:45:35,190
Trevor, what are you talking about?
773
00:45:35,274 --> 00:45:36,108
We won.
774
00:45:36,191 --> 00:45:38,777
Your investors
are gonna get what they want.
775
00:45:38,861 --> 00:45:42,197
Yeah, but I won't.
Not if I don't clear my name.
776
00:45:42,865 --> 00:45:46,702
Trevor, listen, don't do this, all right?
777
00:45:46,785 --> 00:45:48,328
- He will...
- [cell phone chimes]
778
00:45:53,375 --> 00:45:55,127
- What are you doing?
- I have to go.
779
00:45:55,210 --> 00:45:56,670
Go? Go where?
780
00:45:57,296 --> 00:45:58,756
We'll discuss this tomorrow.
781
00:46:00,090 --> 00:46:01,090
Terrell?
782
00:46:01,133 --> 00:46:03,552
It's Mickey Haller. I need your help.
783
00:46:03,635 --> 00:46:05,637
[pop music playing]
784
00:46:11,477 --> 00:46:12,936
- My man.
- What up, Terrell?
785
00:46:13,020 --> 00:46:16,857
This is the guy I was telling you about.
He gotta pop backstage for a second.
786
00:46:17,649 --> 00:46:18,692
This is for you.
787
00:46:19,985 --> 00:46:20,985
Damn.
788
00:46:23,405 --> 00:46:25,240
- Come on.
- I owe you one.
789
00:46:25,324 --> 00:46:26,325
We're cool.
790
00:46:26,408 --> 00:46:30,204
I told you, Mickey Haller,
anytime you need me, I'm there.
791
00:47:22,214 --> 00:47:23,298
What happened, Izzy?
792
00:47:27,219 --> 00:47:28,929
She asked me to get high with her.
793
00:47:30,597 --> 00:47:32,766
I came within a millimeter of saying yes.
794
00:47:35,602 --> 00:47:36,602
[sighs]
795
00:47:37,145 --> 00:47:39,273
That's still
on the right side of the line.
796
00:47:40,566 --> 00:47:42,985
Come on, let's go. Come on.
797
00:48:16,018 --> 00:48:18,020
[melancholic song playing]
