1
00:01:04,404 --> 00:01:07,538
Hey, fella.

2
00:01:07,574 --> 00:01:09,118
Thanks for your service.

3
00:01:56,588 --> 00:01:58,922
Circa the Battle of Gettysburg.

4
00:01:58,957 --> 00:02:00,924
Perfect backup weapon for you, Dawson.

5
00:02:00,959 --> 00:02:03,193
41 caliber stops your average

6
00:02:03,228 --> 00:02:04,894
sumo wrestler in his tracks.

7
00:02:04,930 --> 00:02:06,670
Tucks neatly in a fanny pack.

8
00:02:06,673 --> 00:02:09,740
- Man purse.
- Sports bra, Gstring, thong.

9
00:02:11,602 --> 00:02:14,103
I'd like to turn in a gun.

10
00:02:14,139 --> 00:02:16,205
Yeah, let's take a look.

11
00:02:17,211 --> 00:02:20,079
- Where'd you serve?
- Iraq.

12
00:02:20,114 --> 00:02:21,947
Two tours.

13
00:02:25,557 --> 00:02:27,523
I'm glad that's over, man.

14
00:02:27,526 --> 00:02:29,821
I was sweating' bullets
walking around with that thing.

15
00:02:29,823 --> 00:02:31,656
I mean, if I got stopped, you know?

16
00:02:31,692 --> 00:02:34,659
It'd have been real bad.

17
00:02:34,695 --> 00:02:37,762
- Thing's jammed.
- Let me see.

18
00:02:38,434 --> 00:02:40,298
I still get the money
even though it's broke?

19
00:02:40,300 --> 00:02:42,100
- Absolutely.
- Cool.

20
00:02:42,135 --> 00:02:44,335
My nephew wants a
clarinet for his birthday.

21
00:02:44,370 --> 00:02:47,271
I figured this would cover a used one.

22
00:02:49,976 --> 00:02:52,977
On the barrel. Is that...

23
00:02:58,918 --> 00:03:00,218
You have to come with us.

24
00:03:00,253 --> 00:03:02,386
Why, what'd I do?

25
00:03:02,422 --> 00:03:04,387
You see the dots?

26
00:03:04,423 --> 00:03:05,990
That's blood spatter.

27
00:03:06,025 --> 00:03:07,132
What?

28
00:03:07,171 --> 00:03:10,027
I'm pretty sure your
gun has a body on it.

29
00:03:10,062 --> 00:03:13,130
Oh, shoot.

30

31
00:03:24,785 --> 00:03:26,953
The radio said bring any
gun to the church today

32
00:03:26,956 --> 00:03:29,144
and get $100.

33
00:03:29,146 --> 00:03:30,812
A'ight? So that's what I did.

34
00:03:30,815 --> 00:03:32,180
All true, Mr. Williams,

35
00:03:32,183 --> 00:03:33,982
but your gun has dried
blood on it, and...

36
00:03:34,018 --> 00:03:35,817
It's not my gun.

37
00:03:35,853 --> 00:03:37,919
Whose gun is it?

38
00:03:39,982 --> 00:03:41,822
I don't really know. I found it.

39
00:03:41,858 --> 00:03:43,491
Where?

40
00:03:43,527 --> 00:03:46,027
Well...

41
00:03:46,063 --> 00:03:48,029
I was waiting for the
bus early this morning,

42
00:03:48,065 --> 00:03:51,533
and I...

43
00:03:51,568 --> 00:03:53,334
I threw away some chewing gum,

44
00:03:53,370 --> 00:03:55,302
and it was laying right...
Right there in a...

45
00:03:55,337 --> 00:03:57,304
A trash barrel.

46
00:03:57,339 --> 00:03:59,540
Your heart seems to be in
the right place, Mr. Williams,

47
00:03:59,542 --> 00:04:02,009
but this story, to be
honest, sounds like BS.

48
00:04:02,045 --> 00:04:03,644
I'm telling you, it isn't mine.

49
00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:05,512
Then the last thing we want

50
00:04:05,548 --> 00:04:07,014
is someone blaming you

51
00:04:07,050 --> 00:04:08,500
when they find their gun missing.

52
00:04:08,503 --> 00:04:10,584
Can I just go home?
I'll give back the money.

53
00:04:10,586 --> 00:04:11,883
The money's yours.

54
00:04:11,886 --> 00:04:13,141
Yeah, but you're not leaving

55
00:04:13,144 --> 00:04:15,020
until we know where you got that gun.

56
00:04:15,023 --> 00:04:16,223
- All right.
- Get up.

57
00:04:16,258 --> 00:04:17,466
All right.

58
00:04:23,052 --> 00:04:24,685
I...

59
00:04:24,740 --> 00:04:28,668
I was fixing my nephew's
bed this morning.

60
00:04:28,704 --> 00:04:31,571
And then that's when I
found it under the mattress.

61
00:04:31,607 --> 00:04:33,206
Your nephew the clarinet player?

62
00:04:33,241 --> 00:04:35,041
No, his name's Andre.

63
00:04:35,077 --> 00:04:37,210
A'ight? He's a good kid.
Made all A's last year.

64
00:04:37,245 --> 00:04:39,378
Never been in any kind of
trouble with the police.

65
00:04:39,414 --> 00:04:41,247
When I saw that gun under Andre's bed,

66
00:04:41,282 --> 00:04:42,454
you know, it scared the hell out of me,

67
00:04:42,456 --> 00:04:45,218
and believe me, when he
comes home from school,

68
00:04:45,253 --> 00:04:46,995
I'm gon' get to the bottom of this.

69
00:04:50,658 --> 00:04:53,192
Is my uncle in some kind of trouble?

70
00:04:53,228 --> 00:04:55,194
That depends on how this goes.

71
00:04:55,230 --> 00:04:57,696
He found your gun.

72
00:04:57,732 --> 00:04:58,931
What gun?

73
00:04:59,901 --> 00:05:02,367
The one under your mattress.

74
00:05:02,402 --> 00:05:04,236
But I don't know anything about that.

75
00:05:05,315 --> 00:05:07,740
I mean, if he found it,
I didn't put it there.

76
00:05:07,742 --> 00:05:10,609
So you want your uncle to
take the weight for this?

77
00:05:10,645 --> 00:05:12,111
No, ma'am.

78
00:05:13,280 --> 00:05:15,114
You shot somebody, didn't you, Andre?

79
00:05:15,149 --> 00:05:17,282
Shot? No, sir.

80
00:05:17,317 --> 00:05:19,251
If that gun was used to shoot somebody,

81
00:05:19,286 --> 00:05:21,153
we're gonna find out.

82
00:05:21,188 --> 00:05:23,155
Maybe we can help you now.

83
00:05:23,190 --> 00:05:25,657
But once we walk out of
here, all bets are off.

84
00:05:25,692 --> 00:05:27,035
Do you understand?

85
00:05:32,341 --> 00:05:34,240
Bad decision, Andre.

86
00:05:38,249 --> 00:05:39,971
Get back to class.

87
00:05:41,607 --> 00:05:42,939
The serial number tracks

88
00:05:42,942 --> 00:05:45,617
an Indiana gun store sale in '89.

89
00:05:45,620 --> 00:05:47,679
Looks like somebody's
been playing street hockey

90
00:05:47,681 --> 00:05:49,513
- with it ever since.
- It's still operable?

91
00:05:49,549 --> 00:05:51,515
Ballistics says it fires just fine.

92
00:05:51,551 --> 00:05:53,517
Loading, not so much.

93
00:05:53,553 --> 00:05:55,319
The spring on the magazine release

94
00:05:55,354 --> 00:05:58,189
is shot to hell.

95
00:05:58,224 --> 00:06:00,191
Latent didn't find any
prints on the weapon

96
00:06:00,226 --> 00:06:02,293
other than the e-lims you provided.

97
00:06:02,328 --> 00:06:05,128
What about the blood?
Did we get a DNA hit?

98
00:06:05,164 --> 00:06:07,130
As a matter of fact...

99
00:06:09,168 --> 00:06:10,533
Damon Cafferty.

100
00:06:10,569 --> 00:06:12,135
Age 19.

101
00:06:12,171 --> 00:06:13,203
Two priors.

102
00:06:13,238 --> 00:06:15,305
Can I get in there?

103
00:06:21,146 --> 00:06:22,545
That's a gang tatt.

104
00:06:22,581 --> 00:06:25,014
PD Killaz. They roll out of Englewood.

105
00:06:25,049 --> 00:06:27,183
Damon Cafferty's the banger
that wouldn't cooperate

106
00:06:27,219 --> 00:06:29,051
in the Lara Haley shooting.

107
00:06:29,087 --> 00:06:31,153
Stone's just starting that trial now.

108
00:06:34,359 --> 00:06:35,991
Part of our opening statement

109
00:06:36,027 --> 00:06:37,527
will be making an emotional connection

110
00:06:37,529 --> 00:06:38,842
with our jurors.

111
00:06:38,845 --> 00:06:40,678
I'll be telling them
about your daughter.

112
00:06:40,681 --> 00:06:43,232
Taking them through what
happened to her that day.

113
00:06:43,267 --> 00:06:44,734
It may be hard for you to hear.

114
00:06:44,769 --> 00:06:47,302
We'll be all right.

115
00:06:47,338 --> 00:06:49,471
If you need to step out at any time...

116
00:06:49,506 --> 00:06:52,474
We live with this every single day.

117
00:06:52,509 --> 00:06:54,543
I was holding Lara's hand...

118
00:06:55,679 --> 00:06:58,179
when the shooting started.

119
00:06:58,215 --> 00:07:01,683
The sidewalk outside our
home where she was shot...

120
00:07:01,719 --> 00:07:04,185
- The blood is still...
- I'm really sorry

121
00:07:04,221 --> 00:07:06,355
to do this to you, Mrs. Haley,

122
00:07:06,390 --> 00:07:08,357
but it helps that you're here.

123
00:07:08,392 --> 00:07:10,726
We'll do what we need to do
to see the person who did this

124
00:07:10,728 --> 00:07:12,693
go to jail.

125
00:07:12,729 --> 00:07:15,230
Thank you. So will we.

126
00:07:15,265 --> 00:07:16,564
Mr. Stone?

127
00:07:16,599 --> 00:07:18,432
Hi. Hope I'm not interrupting.

128
00:07:18,468 --> 00:07:20,201
Kerry Schmidt. Cook
County Public Defender.

129
00:07:20,237 --> 00:07:22,203
I'll be taking over the defense case.

130
00:07:22,239 --> 00:07:24,372
- Hey, Anna.
- Hi.

131
00:07:24,407 --> 00:07:26,207
Kerry was one year
behind me at Michigan Law.

132
00:07:26,243 --> 00:07:27,787
Uh, two.

133
00:07:27,818 --> 00:07:30,711
Believe it or not, this is
my very first murder trial.

134
00:07:30,747 --> 00:07:34,081
Butterflies, you know?

135
00:07:34,116 --> 00:07:36,250
So, uh, I would be
more than grateful for

136
00:07:36,286 --> 00:07:39,052
any professional courtesies
you might throw my way.

137
00:07:39,088 --> 00:07:41,155
Not that I'm looking for
you to take it easy on me.

138
00:07:43,393 --> 00:07:45,058
Okay, then. You can meet the Haleys.

139
00:07:45,094 --> 00:07:46,426
They're the parents of the little girl

140
00:07:46,428 --> 00:07:48,495
your client killed.

141
00:07:53,235 --> 00:07:54,768
On the afternoon of July 11th,

142
00:07:54,804 --> 00:07:56,603
Lara Haley was walking
home from summer school

143
00:07:56,605 --> 00:07:58,405
with her mom, Corrine.

144
00:07:58,440 --> 00:08:01,241
It's a walk they've taken
a hundred times before.

145
00:08:01,277 --> 00:08:03,410
It was just another average day.

146
00:08:03,445 --> 00:08:05,412
They talked about
Lara's science classes,

147
00:08:05,447 --> 00:08:07,580
and what they'd cook for dinner.

148
00:08:07,616 --> 00:08:10,691
But it was the last average
day that Lara would ever have.

149
00:08:10,694 --> 00:08:12,632
And the last moment that Corrine Haley

150
00:08:12,654 --> 00:08:14,153
would ever spend with her daughter.

151
00:08:14,189 --> 00:08:15,588
'Cause a few hours earlier,

152
00:08:15,624 --> 00:08:18,574
this man, Chris Stackhouse,

153
00:08:18,577 --> 00:08:20,492
a member of a south side street gang

154
00:08:20,528 --> 00:08:21,993
known as the Drexel Posse,

155
00:08:21,996 --> 00:08:23,796
found an Instagram message on his phone

156
00:08:23,832 --> 00:08:25,798
from a rival gang.

157
00:08:25,834 --> 00:08:29,335
It said, and I'm paraphrasing
some rough language here,

158
00:08:29,370 --> 00:08:32,338
"Had sex with your
girlfriend last night.

159
00:08:32,373 --> 00:08:34,506
Hahaha."

160
00:08:34,542 --> 00:08:36,742
Attached to the message was a photograph

161
00:08:36,777 --> 00:08:39,511
of a half naked young lady.

162
00:08:39,547 --> 00:08:42,280
The defendant then grabbed
a 9 millimeter handgun,

163
00:08:42,316 --> 00:08:45,283
pulled a hoodie over his head,
and rode his bike to the corner

164
00:08:45,319 --> 00:08:47,453
of 68th Street and Marshfield Avenue,

165
00:08:47,488 --> 00:08:50,155
where he opened fire on a
group of rival gang members

166
00:08:50,190 --> 00:08:51,823
who charmingly call themselves

167
00:08:51,859 --> 00:08:54,826
PD Killaz.

168
00:08:54,862 --> 00:08:58,263
The man he was gunning for,
Damon Cafferty, was wounded.

169
00:08:58,298 --> 00:09:01,432
But a stray bullet
from the defendant's gun

170
00:09:01,468 --> 00:09:03,434
tore into Lara's back, killing her

171
00:09:03,470 --> 00:09:05,337
as Corrine cradled her in her arms

172
00:09:05,372 --> 00:09:08,238
and felt the life drain
out of her daughter.

173
00:09:11,296 --> 00:09:13,578
- They're still not answering.
- What courtroom?

174
00:09:13,580 --> 00:09:15,179
304.

175
00:09:16,816 --> 00:09:20,651
Yes, this is a very tragic
situation for Lara's parents.

176
00:09:20,687 --> 00:09:21,919
I mean, not just for her parents,

177
00:09:21,921 --> 00:09:23,821
but for all of us. Really.

178
00:09:23,857 --> 00:09:25,822
But when you look at
the evidence logically...

179
00:09:25,858 --> 00:09:27,691
- Stone!
- It will show that my client

180
00:09:27,726 --> 00:09:30,861
did not fire the firearm
that killed that poor girl.

181
00:09:30,897 --> 00:09:33,864
We just found your murder weapon.

182
00:09:33,900 --> 00:09:36,233
It was in another kid's bedroom.

183
00:09:36,269 --> 00:09:38,735
- What?
- In fact, he was nowhere near...

184
00:09:38,771 --> 00:09:40,537
Your Honor, I'm
addressing the Jury here.

185
00:09:40,572 --> 00:09:42,544
I'm sorry, would you
bear with us, please?

186
00:09:45,034 --> 00:09:46,333
Are you sure?

187
00:09:46,336 --> 00:09:47,903
Damon Cafferty's blood spatter

188
00:09:47,906 --> 00:09:50,246
is on the business end of the gun.

189
00:09:50,282 --> 00:09:53,349
Looks like you might have
the wrong kid on trial here.

190
00:09:58,108 --> 00:09:59,724
The ballistic tests confirmed it.

191
00:09:59,727 --> 00:10:01,393
Lara Haley was killed
with a bullet from

192
00:10:01,396 --> 00:10:03,186
the weapon turned in
at the gun buy-back.

193
00:10:03,189 --> 00:10:05,189
It's like the wild west
out there, and we can't get

194
00:10:05,192 --> 00:10:09,364
a simple murder case right.
Thought you had this.

195
00:10:09,403 --> 00:10:13,038
We knew there were a
few problems going in.

196
00:10:13,091 --> 00:10:15,546
- You call this a problem?
- There's no need to panic.

197
00:10:15,581 --> 00:10:17,581
Just because some other kid was
babysitting the murder weapon,

198
00:10:17,583 --> 00:10:20,083
doesn't mean the shooter isn't
sitting at the defense table.

199
00:10:20,119 --> 00:10:22,119
Is the boy who had the
gun in the same street gang

200
00:10:22,121 --> 00:10:24,087
- as the defendant?
- Not as far as we know.

201
00:10:24,123 --> 00:10:25,756
He seems to be a model citizen.

202
00:10:25,791 --> 00:10:28,725
So what was the gun
doing under his mattress?

203
00:10:28,761 --> 00:10:30,129
We'll get a continuance.

204
00:10:30,132 --> 00:10:32,137
It'll buy us some time
to find more answers.

205
00:10:36,147 --> 00:10:37,914
What makes you think Judge Sanford

206
00:10:37,949 --> 00:10:39,415
will grant us a continuance?

207
00:10:39,450 --> 00:10:41,850
Newly discovered evidence.

208
00:10:41,886 --> 00:10:44,020
So you're going to let
Schmidt know about the gun?

209
00:10:44,055 --> 00:10:45,922
I want a conviction as much as anybody.

210
00:10:45,957 --> 00:10:47,623
Don't you think we need
to disclose that we found

211
00:10:47,625 --> 00:10:49,358
the murder weapon?
You just told Jefferies

212
00:10:49,394 --> 00:10:50,927
it's not exculpatory.

213
00:10:50,962 --> 00:10:52,361
If you were defense counsel,

214
00:10:52,397 --> 00:10:53,930
wouldn't you want to know about this?

215
00:10:53,965 --> 00:10:55,931
Landmark case of State v. Jagger.

216
00:10:55,966 --> 00:10:57,599
You can't always get what you want.

217
00:10:57,635 --> 00:10:59,007
Law's not rock 'n' roll.

218
00:10:59,010 --> 00:11:01,169
We play by the rules,
and we err on the side of

219
00:11:01,171 --> 00:11:03,639
- do unto others.
- Gospel. Not my jam.

220
00:11:03,674 --> 00:11:05,641
My client wants his day in court.

221
00:11:05,676 --> 00:11:07,342
Enough delays already.

222
00:11:07,377 --> 00:11:08,944
Why do you need more time, Mr. Stone?

223
00:11:08,979 --> 00:11:10,754
Our investigators just recovered the gun

224
00:11:10,757 --> 00:11:11,947
that killed Lara Haley.

225
00:11:11,982 --> 00:11:13,148
Where?

226
00:11:13,183 --> 00:11:14,645
In another teenager's bedroom.

227
00:11:14,648 --> 00:11:16,884
Forget about a continuance.
I'm moving for a dismissal.

228
00:11:16,886 --> 00:11:18,853
No, that's ridiculous.
Our case is still viable.

229
00:11:18,888 --> 00:11:20,562
My client's been swearing up
and down he didn't do this.

230
00:11:20,564 --> 00:11:21,622
He bragged about it.

231
00:11:21,658 --> 00:11:23,391
- He's been ID'd.
- And I'm hearing

232
00:11:23,427 --> 00:11:25,160
your star witness is the
neighborhood crackhead.

233
00:11:25,162 --> 00:11:26,661
We don't want to see an
innocent man convicted

234
00:11:26,663 --> 00:11:28,062
any more than Ms. Schmidt does.

235
00:11:28,097 --> 00:11:30,498
We need a week to investigate.

236
00:11:30,533 --> 00:11:32,222
You've got 72 hours.

237
00:11:32,225 --> 00:11:34,101
In light of this development,
Judge, my client should be

238
00:11:34,103 --> 00:11:35,536
released without bail.

239
00:11:35,572 --> 00:11:37,505
Well, the People strongly oppose.

240
00:11:39,576 --> 00:11:40,931
I'll release him,

241
00:11:40,934 --> 00:11:43,010
but I'm ordering that he
be restricted to his home.

242
00:11:43,012 --> 00:11:44,544
You understand that, Ms. Schmidt?

243
00:11:44,580 --> 00:11:46,913
If I hear that he puts
one foot on the street,

244
00:11:46,916 --> 00:11:49,409
he goes back to County, and
I'll slap a contempt finding

245
00:11:49,412 --> 00:11:51,185
on both of you.

246
00:11:55,557 --> 00:11:57,992
I don't see why this guy
can't just call an Uber.

247
00:11:58,027 --> 00:11:59,526
You have something better to do?

248
00:11:59,561 --> 00:12:03,396
Than running a car
service for a murderer?

249
00:12:03,431 --> 00:12:06,065
Bogey. Two o'clock.

250
00:12:06,101 --> 00:12:08,401
You're here to transport my client?

251
00:12:08,436 --> 00:12:10,403
That's what the court order says.

252
00:12:10,438 --> 00:12:12,834
You know you're not allowed to
ask him any questions, right?

253
00:12:12,837 --> 00:12:14,273
Was that in the order?

254
00:12:14,309 --> 00:12:16,175
It's in the Fifth Amendment.

255
00:12:16,211 --> 00:12:17,610
I have an idea.

256
00:12:17,645 --> 00:12:19,639
Why don't you ride along
with us to Englewood?

257
00:12:19,642 --> 00:12:21,343
Make sure we don't violate
any of your client's

258
00:12:21,345 --> 00:12:22,615
constitutional rights.

259
00:12:22,650 --> 00:12:24,717
It's okay.

260
00:12:26,721 --> 00:12:29,555
Stackhouse!

261
00:12:29,590 --> 00:12:32,358
- Come on, come on, come on.
- Get in the car.

262
00:12:32,394 --> 00:12:34,092
Oh, remember, Chris.

263
00:12:34,128 --> 00:12:36,361
- Home restriction.
- Yeah. Yeah, it's all good.

264
00:12:36,397 --> 00:12:38,363
Look. Do me a favor.
Drop me off on Ashland.

265
00:12:38,399 --> 00:12:40,265
I don't wanna be rolling'
up on my block with PD.

266
00:12:40,267 --> 00:12:43,335
Not a chance. You're
getting door-to-door service.

267
00:12:51,445 --> 00:12:52,577
You heard your lawyer.

268
00:12:52,612 --> 00:12:54,279
Get inside, stay inside.

269
00:12:54,314 --> 00:12:56,081
Yeah. All right.

270
00:12:56,116 --> 00:12:58,350
We'll be back to pick
you up Friday morning.

271
00:13:04,011 --> 00:13:06,945
- Yo, Stack, what up, man?
- Hey, yo, what up?

272
00:13:06,948 --> 00:13:09,014
Can you believe this knucklehead?

273
00:13:12,298 --> 00:13:14,365
Hey! Stackhouse!

274
00:13:17,690 --> 00:13:19,556
P-D-K drilling' snitches today.

275
00:13:26,369 --> 00:13:28,269
Go! I got it!

276
00:13:34,653 --> 00:13:36,153
10-71. Shots fired.

277
00:13:36,189 --> 00:13:37,521
One down.

278
00:13:37,557 --> 00:13:40,624
Need an ambo at 62nd and Wolcott.

279
00:13:42,795 --> 00:13:45,128
Chris Stackhouse took
one round to the thigh.

280
00:13:45,163 --> 00:13:46,697
He's being treated at Chicago Med,

281
00:13:46,732 --> 00:13:48,699
but no reason he can't
limp back into court

282
00:13:48,734 --> 00:13:50,266
when the trial resumes.

283
00:13:50,269 --> 00:13:51,749
Our shooter jumped on the Ryan.

284
00:13:51,752 --> 00:13:52,932
We lost him in traffic.

285
00:13:52,935 --> 00:13:55,205
I don't suppose you got
a DMV hit on the plate?

286
00:13:55,207 --> 00:13:57,527
It's stolen. We'll lift prints
when the vehicle turns up.

287
00:13:57,542 --> 00:13:59,342
We're pulling known PDK mug shots

288
00:13:59,345 --> 00:14:00,975
to see if we can put a name to the face.

289
00:14:00,977 --> 00:14:02,477
What about posting up on their turf?

290
00:14:02,512 --> 00:14:03,845
Maybe you can spot the shooter.

291
00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:05,247
It's not great timing.

292
00:14:05,282 --> 00:14:06,748
Stackhouse's release lit a spark

293
00:14:06,783 --> 00:14:08,483
between PDK and the Drexel Posse.

294
00:14:08,518 --> 00:14:09,364
Why?

295
00:14:09,367 --> 00:14:11,000
'Cause a banger who skates out

296
00:14:11,003 --> 00:14:13,755
from under a murder
charge looks like a snitch.

297
00:14:13,790 --> 00:14:16,457
There were three shootings
in Englewood just last night.

298
00:14:16,492 --> 00:14:18,692
Four wounded. One PDK kid dead.

299
00:14:18,728 --> 00:14:20,020
Bystanders?

300
00:14:20,023 --> 00:14:21,863
A pedestrian caught a round in his neck.

301
00:14:21,865 --> 00:14:23,697
Missed his jugular by a half inch.

302
00:14:23,733 --> 00:14:25,166
The District has its hands full.

303
00:14:25,201 --> 00:14:27,268
There is a surge in place.

304
00:14:33,509 --> 00:14:35,745
The mag release on that thing's shot.

305
00:14:38,347 --> 00:14:42,483
All right. Voight and his
crew can jump on the drive-by.

306
00:14:42,518 --> 00:14:45,686
There's a ticking clock
on the Haley trial.

307
00:14:45,721 --> 00:14:47,353
Andre had nothing to do

308
00:14:47,389 --> 00:14:49,355
with that little girl getting killed.

309
00:14:49,391 --> 00:14:51,291
All right? He's not in a gang.

310
00:14:51,326 --> 00:14:53,097
He goes to school, and he comes home.

311
00:14:53,100 --> 00:14:55,328
I don't let him leave the house
without me going with him.

312
00:14:55,330 --> 00:14:57,530
The principal at Harper speaks
very highly of your nephew.

313
00:14:57,532 --> 00:14:59,699
But the fact remains, he
had a gun under his bed.

314
00:14:59,734 --> 00:15:00,845
Which I turned in.

315
00:15:00,848 --> 00:15:03,869
A gun that was used in
the homicide of Lara Haley.

316
00:15:05,574 --> 00:15:07,607
We can have him arrested right now

317
00:15:07,609 --> 00:15:09,298
- while we sort this out.
- Oh, no.

318
00:15:09,301 --> 00:15:11,377
- Please don't do that.
- So if there's an explanation

319
00:15:11,379 --> 00:15:13,346
for this, now's the time.

320
00:15:13,381 --> 00:15:15,092
I know this is hard, Mr. Williams.

321
00:15:15,095 --> 00:15:18,017
You're asking me to throw
another boy to the lions?

322
00:15:18,052 --> 00:15:19,225
It's your choice,

323
00:15:19,228 --> 00:15:21,386
but it looks to me
like Andre's a young man

324
00:15:21,422 --> 00:15:24,556
who has a shot to make
a life for himself.

325
00:15:24,591 --> 00:15:27,659
You can protect this other kid,
or you can be straight with us.

326
00:15:34,035 --> 00:15:36,368
The day the girl was shot,

327
00:15:36,403 --> 00:15:38,269
Andre's cousin, Keo, came to the house.

328
00:15:38,305 --> 00:15:39,771
Keo Vincent.

329
00:15:39,807 --> 00:15:41,673
And, uh, he said he was, uh,

330
00:15:41,709 --> 00:15:43,742
coming from the playground
and needed to shower.

331
00:15:44,911 --> 00:15:46,812
To scrub off gunshot residue?

332
00:15:47,914 --> 00:15:49,581
Or a sweaty kid who needed to wash up.

333
00:15:49,616 --> 00:15:51,209
He had something in a lunch bag

334
00:15:51,212 --> 00:15:52,616
that he gave to Andre. All right?

335
00:15:52,618 --> 00:15:53,918
Something heavy.

336
00:15:53,954 --> 00:15:56,787
About the size of a gun?

337
00:15:56,823 --> 00:15:58,756
Yes, ma'am.

338
00:15:58,791 --> 00:16:01,259
And when he left here, he
was wearing Andre's clothes.

339
00:16:01,294 --> 00:16:03,261
Why didn't you tell this
to our investigators?

340
00:16:03,296 --> 00:16:04,936
All right, look. You have to understand.

341
00:16:04,965 --> 00:16:07,732
Keo is my sister's only child.

342
00:16:07,767 --> 00:16:09,834
All right? Family.

343
00:16:10,772 --> 00:16:12,272
But between you and me,

344
00:16:12,275 --> 00:16:14,505
kid's been in some trouble before.

345
00:16:16,345 --> 00:16:18,379
Where do we find Keo?

346
00:16:21,113 --> 00:16:23,347
This is Drexel Posse territory.

347
00:16:25,802 --> 00:16:27,484
It's the kid in the white tank top.

348
00:16:27,486 --> 00:16:29,519
The Chief Keef wannabe.

349
00:16:30,789 --> 00:16:32,322
Keo.

350
00:16:32,358 --> 00:16:34,324
Yo, Keo!

351
00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:35,625
What?

352
00:16:35,660 --> 00:16:37,627
Talk to you for a minute.

353
00:16:37,662 --> 00:16:38,774
I'm busy.

354
00:16:38,777 --> 00:16:40,998
All right. You gon'
make me come over there

355
00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:43,065
and see who all's got warrants?

356
00:16:48,330 --> 00:16:49,800
Yeah?

357
00:16:49,803 --> 00:16:51,866
These gentlemen here are
with the State's Attorney.

358
00:16:51,869 --> 00:16:54,644
They want to talk to you
about Chris Stackhouse.

359
00:16:54,679 --> 00:16:55,978
He's locked up.

360
00:16:56,014 --> 00:16:58,814
Not anymore. He just got shot.

361
00:16:58,849 --> 00:17:00,983
There's a lot of that going around.

362
00:17:01,019 --> 00:17:02,985
He said you were with him on
Marshfield a few months ago

363
00:17:02,987 --> 00:17:04,853
when that little girl got killed.

364
00:17:04,889 --> 00:17:06,655
I don't think so.

365
00:17:06,690 --> 00:17:10,052
Check it. Man says C-Stax
trying to put a case on me.

366
00:17:10,055 --> 00:17:11,517
That's hella cold.

367
00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:13,099
No one said anything about a case.

368
00:17:13,102 --> 00:17:15,697
You ain't come all the way
out here for the scenery.

369
00:17:15,699 --> 00:17:17,332
I think we need to discuss this

370
00:17:17,367 --> 00:17:19,334
where we have your full attention.

371
00:17:19,369 --> 00:17:21,336
Are you arresting me?

372
00:17:21,371 --> 00:17:24,440
'Cause I didn't drill nobody.

373
00:17:35,152 --> 00:17:38,119
I guess black lives do matter.

374
00:17:38,155 --> 00:17:39,642
Chill out, Keo.

375
00:17:43,513 --> 00:17:46,737
Keo had six juvie
arrests by the age of 15.

376
00:17:46,773 --> 00:17:48,606
He did a bid at JDC.

377
00:17:48,641 --> 00:17:50,608
He's suspected of being cliqued up

378
00:17:50,643 --> 00:17:53,278
with a Drexel Posse crew on his block.

379
00:17:53,313 --> 00:17:54,913
A junior associate?

380
00:17:54,948 --> 00:17:56,714
A kid who'd try to
make a name for himself

381
00:17:56,749 --> 00:17:58,616
by spraying bullets at a rival gang.

382
00:17:58,651 --> 00:18:00,518
Yeah. With an attitude
to match his ambition.

383
00:18:00,553 --> 00:18:02,085
If this little wise-ass
killed Lara Haley,

384
00:18:02,087 --> 00:18:03,369
he's going away for a long time.

385
00:18:03,372 --> 00:18:06,390
We've got an all-out war now
between Drexel Posse and PDK.

386
00:18:06,426 --> 00:18:07,531
Gang Intel sent me this

387
00:18:07,534 --> 00:18:09,894
after Stackhouse got
shot a couple of days ago.

388
00:18:09,929 --> 00:18:12,896
A gang member from
PDK posted an Instagram

389
00:18:12,932 --> 00:18:15,632
threatening Stackhouse ten
minutes before he was shot.

390
00:18:15,667 --> 00:18:18,635
Drexel retaliates by
shooting three PDK bangers.

391
00:18:18,670 --> 00:18:21,638
And then they posted photos
of it on social media.

392
00:18:21,673 --> 00:18:25,114
The two gangs tweet some insults
back and forth, and finally,

393
00:18:25,137 --> 00:18:26,743
there's a challenge to throw down

394
00:18:26,778 --> 00:18:28,745
by the railroad tracks
near Lindblom Park.

395
00:18:28,780 --> 00:18:31,748
"PDK bitches gonna bleed."

396
00:18:31,783 --> 00:18:33,615
Bottom line... Three dead, five wounded.

397
00:18:33,651 --> 00:18:34,951
All in the space of eight hours.

398
00:18:34,986 --> 00:18:36,485
So basically, they're inciting

399
00:18:36,520 --> 00:18:37,987
these retaliations on social media?

400
00:18:38,022 --> 00:18:39,888
Uh-huh. That's how
these crews roll now.

401
00:18:39,924 --> 00:18:41,890
You call out a rival in a DM.

402
00:18:41,926 --> 00:18:43,092
Drop a dis video.

403
00:18:43,127 --> 00:18:44,327
Geo-tag your turf.

404
00:18:44,362 --> 00:18:45,828
Shoot. Rinse. Repeat.

405
00:18:45,863 --> 00:18:47,366
Cyber-banging.

406
00:18:47,369 --> 00:18:50,436
Makes "Boyz n the Hood"
look like a Disney movie.

407
00:18:57,007 --> 00:18:59,508
Cell tower pings put
Keo Vincent on the block

408
00:18:59,543 --> 00:19:01,009
when Lara Haley was killed.

409
00:19:01,044 --> 00:19:02,209
I'm getting this strong feeling

410
00:19:02,211 --> 00:19:06,514
we actually do have the wrong
Drexel Posse banger on trial.

411
00:19:06,549 --> 00:19:09,517
Yeah. You and me both.

412
00:19:09,552 --> 00:19:12,620
Here. Check this out.

413
00:19:13,332 --> 00:19:14,965
Your cell phone account?

414
00:19:14,968 --> 00:19:17,158
It's my user agreement. Read that.

415
00:19:17,194 --> 00:19:19,694
"The customer agrees not to
use the phone or the account

416
00:19:19,729 --> 00:19:21,863
for any unlawful purpose."

417
00:19:21,898 --> 00:19:23,698
I'd say orchestrating a gang war

418
00:19:23,733 --> 00:19:25,032
in a series of digital messages

419
00:19:25,067 --> 00:19:28,603
qualifies as an unlawful purpose.

420
00:19:28,638 --> 00:19:31,606
Maybe, but it'll take years to litigate.

421
00:19:31,609 --> 00:19:33,966
And that's why I'm
shutting off their phones.

422
00:19:39,181 --> 00:19:41,515
Let's see if I understand
this, Mr. Stone.

423
00:19:41,550 --> 00:19:43,183
You want to unilaterally terminate

424
00:19:43,219 --> 00:19:46,887
cellular and Internet
service for 39 individuals.

425
00:19:46,922 --> 00:19:49,390
Individuals who are
known violent gang members

426
00:19:49,425 --> 00:19:51,558
- in your jurisdiction.
- Known by whom?

427
00:19:51,593 --> 00:19:53,894
The Chicago PD maintains
a Strategic Subject List.

428
00:19:53,929 --> 00:19:55,896
It's more commonly called the Heat List.

429
00:19:55,931 --> 00:19:57,898
It ranks past offenders
who are most likely

430
00:19:57,933 --> 00:19:59,900
to perpetrate gun
violence in the future.

431
00:19:59,935 --> 00:20:01,094
Who makes this list?

432
00:20:01,097 --> 00:20:02,904
It's based on a computer algorithm

433
00:20:02,907 --> 00:20:05,705
developed by the Illinois
Institute of Technology.

434
00:20:05,741 --> 00:20:08,575
So you're telling me some computer wonk

435
00:20:08,610 --> 00:20:11,077
on a college campus
can predict the future?

436
00:20:11,112 --> 00:20:12,349
Yes, Your Honor.

437
00:20:12,352 --> 00:20:13,952
Young men at the top of the Heat List

438
00:20:13,955 --> 00:20:16,256
are shooting each other
in Englewood as we speak.

439
00:20:16,259 --> 00:20:18,518
And how's turning off their smartphones

440
00:20:18,553 --> 00:20:20,619
gonna stop them from killing each other?

441
00:20:23,091 --> 00:20:25,591
As you can see from these
social media messages

442
00:20:25,626 --> 00:20:27,760
we've pulled, the
violence is being fueled by

443
00:20:27,795 --> 00:20:30,095
these gang members on their devices.

444
00:20:30,130 --> 00:20:32,197
Well...

445
00:20:33,768 --> 00:20:37,069
you have whet my appetite.

446
00:20:37,104 --> 00:20:39,237
I'll grant a full
hearing on your request

447
00:20:39,273 --> 00:20:41,607
for injunctive relief,

448
00:20:41,642 --> 00:20:43,609
but in addition to the service providers

449
00:20:43,644 --> 00:20:47,212
you've named, I want
the Illinois ACLU here

450
00:20:47,247 --> 00:20:49,581
on behalf of the account holders.

451
00:20:49,616 --> 00:20:52,750
We'll put it on the
calendar for next Friday.

452
00:20:52,786 --> 00:20:55,019
Thank you, but this
needs to be heard tomorrow

453
00:20:55,055 --> 00:20:56,693
before there's more blood on the street.

454
00:20:56,696 --> 00:20:59,003
We can have all the parties
notified within the hour.

455
00:21:01,628 --> 00:21:04,128
I can't walk across the hall
without taking my cell phone.

456
00:21:04,130 --> 00:21:06,631
But you don't use it to
light up your neighbor.

457
00:21:06,666 --> 00:21:09,467
Maybe there's a way to
do this more surgically.

458
00:21:09,502 --> 00:21:11,135
File complaints with
the social media apps

459
00:21:11,137 --> 00:21:12,540
- they're using.
- I can name ten

460
00:21:12,543 --> 00:21:14,806
messaging applications
off the top of my head.

461
00:21:14,841 --> 00:21:16,841
These gang members can
migrate from one to the next

462
00:21:16,843 --> 00:21:18,976
as easily as I can change
the brand of beer I order.

463
00:21:19,011 --> 00:21:21,420
We don't have time to play
whack-a-mole with these killers.

464
00:21:21,423 --> 00:21:24,047
Whoa! It was just a thought.

465
00:21:24,083 --> 00:21:26,482
This city's buried too
many of its children.

466
00:21:37,835 --> 00:21:40,403
You're trying to do what?

467
00:21:40,437 --> 00:21:41,569
I don't know.

468
00:21:41,614 --> 00:21:42,913
Save a few lives, maybe.

469
00:21:42,933 --> 00:21:45,235
By turning off people's cell phones?

470
00:21:45,270 --> 00:21:47,237
We can't just sit up
here and be reactive.

471
00:21:47,272 --> 00:21:49,239
We try a few cases, and
we move on to the next,

472
00:21:49,274 --> 00:21:50,680
and it doesn't make a dent.

473
00:21:50,696 --> 00:21:52,774
What's happening now in
the south side of Chicago...

474
00:21:52,777 --> 00:21:54,977
Right now, tonight...
Is a public emergency,

475
00:21:55,013 --> 00:21:57,680
and we need to think outside the box.

476
00:21:57,715 --> 00:21:59,282
The last thing I need

477
00:21:59,285 --> 00:22:01,584
is the FCC breathing down my neck.

478
00:22:01,587 --> 00:22:03,553
So we'll just sit on our
hands and let these kids

479
00:22:03,555 --> 00:22:05,121
kill each other over
a few blocks of turf.

480
00:22:05,123 --> 00:22:06,856
Come on, you know there's middle ground

481
00:22:06,891 --> 00:22:09,759
between doing nothing and this.

482
00:22:09,794 --> 00:22:11,627
Why not try to stop the worst offenders

483
00:22:11,663 --> 00:22:14,196
from perpetrating this
violence before it happens?

484
00:22:14,231 --> 00:22:15,765
Back in the day, they called that

485
00:22:15,800 --> 00:22:18,768
"rounding up the usual suspects."

486
00:22:18,803 --> 00:22:22,038
This is nothing new. It's
just high tech profiling.

487
00:22:22,073 --> 00:22:24,039
Using race-neutral criteria.

488
00:22:24,074 --> 00:22:26,542
Felony histories, gang affiliations.

489
00:22:26,577 --> 00:22:27,876
Who's in the gangs?

490
00:22:27,911 --> 00:22:29,611
The shooters.

491
00:22:29,647 --> 00:22:32,113
People of color.

492
00:22:32,149 --> 00:22:36,285
Lara Haley was a person of color.

493
00:22:36,320 --> 00:22:37,900
I can't get their guns,

494
00:22:37,923 --> 00:22:39,688
but maybe I can get
the phones they're using

495
00:22:39,691 --> 00:22:41,690
to help kill each other,
or any other innocent kid

496
00:22:41,692 --> 00:22:43,658
who just happens to be nearby.

497
00:22:47,931 --> 00:22:49,898
Okay.

498
00:22:49,933 --> 00:22:52,901
I'm not gonna pull
the plug on you, Peter.

499
00:22:52,936 --> 00:22:55,804
But if the Justice Department
comes knocking on my door

500
00:22:55,839 --> 00:22:57,305
with a civil rights complaint,

501
00:22:57,340 --> 00:22:59,039
I'll throw you under
the bus so damn fast,

502
00:22:59,075 --> 00:23:00,741
it'll make your head spin.

503
00:23:00,776 --> 00:23:02,710
Understood.

504
00:23:02,745 --> 00:23:05,213
And God help you if someone dies

505
00:23:05,248 --> 00:23:08,015
because one of these kids
can't use their cell phone

506
00:23:08,050 --> 00:23:09,840
in an emergency.

507
00:23:16,634 --> 00:23:18,541
One the ACLU's biggest problems with

508
00:23:18,544 --> 00:23:20,444
the Heat List is transparency.

509
00:23:20,455 --> 00:23:22,942
The police won't reveal all
of the criteria they used

510
00:23:22,944 --> 00:23:25,778
for the algorithm, or
say who's on the list,

511
00:23:25,814 --> 00:23:26,864
never mind provide

512
00:23:26,867 --> 00:23:29,116
basic due process to challenge it.

513
00:23:29,151 --> 00:23:31,485
The city of Chicago
has demonized hundreds

514
00:23:31,520 --> 00:23:33,487
of young men in secret.

515
00:23:33,522 --> 00:23:34,997
And what about the fact that

516
00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:37,824
the State's Attorney wants to
shut down their smartphones?

517
00:23:37,859 --> 00:23:39,759
The last time I looked,
there was something called

518
00:23:39,761 --> 00:23:42,394
the First Amendment.

519
00:23:42,430 --> 00:23:44,396
The U.S. Supreme Court decided last year

520
00:23:44,432 --> 00:23:46,465
that the Internet is a public utility.

521
00:23:46,501 --> 00:23:48,400
So my company can't pick and choose

522
00:23:48,436 --> 00:23:50,069
who we provide service to.

523
00:23:50,105 --> 00:23:52,404
But isn't it a fact that
users who issue death threats

524
00:23:52,440 --> 00:23:54,907
are violating the terms of
their customer agreement?

525
00:23:54,943 --> 00:23:56,775
Maybe yes, maybe no.

526
00:23:56,810 --> 00:23:59,111
That's a contractual
matter for us to decide.

527
00:23:59,147 --> 00:24:00,493
Not you.

528
00:24:00,524 --> 00:24:02,615
Are you suggesting this court
doesn't have the authority

529
00:24:02,617 --> 00:24:04,055
to order these terminations?

530
00:24:04,063 --> 00:24:06,295
I wouldn't have a problem
if the consumer could appeal

531
00:24:06,298 --> 00:24:08,587
the shut off, but
you're just speculating.

532
00:24:08,623 --> 00:24:10,922
A ten-year-old girl named
Lara Haley was murdered

533
00:24:10,958 --> 00:24:14,693
in a shooting instigated on
your company's wireless service.

534
00:24:14,728 --> 00:24:16,420
How is that speculation?

535
00:24:21,735 --> 00:24:23,869
Is there anything else, Mr. Stone?

536
00:24:23,904 --> 00:24:26,038
No further questions, Your Honor.

537
00:24:26,073 --> 00:24:28,808
Oh, just one more thing.

538
00:24:45,224 --> 00:24:47,724
The State's Attorney is asking for

539
00:24:47,759 --> 00:24:51,895
novel and unprecedented relief.

540
00:24:51,930 --> 00:24:54,230
But the record number
of dead and wounded

541
00:24:54,265 --> 00:24:56,800
is also unprecedented.

542
00:24:56,835 --> 00:25:00,570
And they are more than statistics.

543
00:25:00,605 --> 00:25:04,240
These are young lives being snuffed out.

544
00:25:04,275 --> 00:25:05,709
Parents grieving.

545
00:25:05,744 --> 00:25:09,212
A community gripped by fear.

546
00:25:09,231 --> 00:25:12,065
If I get reversed on appeal, so be it.

547
00:25:12,116 --> 00:25:15,251
But I find that there is
no constitutional right

548
00:25:15,286 --> 00:25:17,653
to operate a smartphone
that is being utilized

549
00:25:17,689 --> 00:25:19,154
as a deadly weapon.

550
00:25:19,190 --> 00:25:22,157
Shut down these 39 accounts immediately.

551
00:25:28,766 --> 00:25:29,860
Here you go,

552
00:25:29,863 --> 00:25:32,384
39 end of service confirmations
from the companies.

553
00:25:32,387 --> 00:25:34,569
There's some unhappy bangers
on the south side tonight.

554
00:25:34,571 --> 00:25:36,529
And the ACLU's notice of appeal.

555
00:25:36,532 --> 00:25:37,740
Slow play our response.

556
00:25:37,775 --> 00:25:38,907
We want to milk these terminations

557
00:25:38,909 --> 00:25:40,257
as long as we can.

558
00:25:40,260 --> 00:25:41,776
You have no idea if
this is going to work.

559
00:25:41,778 --> 00:25:43,199
I'm not expecting a miracle,

560
00:25:43,202 --> 00:25:45,313
but if we can ratchet down
the gang war in Englewood,

561
00:25:45,315 --> 00:25:46,948
- it was worth it.
- Hopefully,

562
00:25:46,983 --> 00:25:49,050
we didn't win the war,
and lose the battle.

563
00:25:50,887 --> 00:25:52,587
Thank you for coming, Mr. Williams.

564
00:25:52,623 --> 00:25:54,088
Andre can wait in reception while we...

565
00:25:54,090 --> 00:25:57,058
You need to hear what he has to say.

566
00:25:57,093 --> 00:25:59,227
Tell him.

567
00:25:59,262 --> 00:26:01,229
Keo's been calling me about the gun.

568
00:26:01,264 --> 00:26:03,931
He got up in my face
at school yesterday.

569
00:26:03,967 --> 00:26:06,200
Told me that he needed his gun back.

570
00:26:06,236 --> 00:26:08,035
Then he came by the house later,

571
00:26:08,071 --> 00:26:10,037
and started pounding on the door.

572
00:26:10,073 --> 00:26:12,039
I pretended I wasn't home,

573
00:26:12,075 --> 00:26:13,940
but I'm afraid if I go
back to school tomorrow,

574
00:26:13,976 --> 00:26:16,943
something bad might happen.

575
00:26:16,971 --> 00:26:20,806
This is all gonna work out.

576
00:26:20,849 --> 00:26:23,984
We're gonna charge Keo with murder.

577
00:26:24,019 --> 00:26:25,986
His visit to your
apartment the other day,

578
00:26:26,021 --> 00:26:27,595
and the blood on the gun you turned in

579
00:26:27,598 --> 00:26:29,256
are key pieces of evidence.

580
00:26:29,292 --> 00:26:32,625
But we can't proceed without you.

581
00:26:32,661 --> 00:26:35,295
We'll need you and Andre to
testify in the Grand Jury.

582
00:26:35,330 --> 00:26:38,165
Testify against my sister's boy?

583
00:26:38,200 --> 00:26:41,067
Your sister's boy killed
an innocent young girl.

584
00:26:41,103 --> 00:26:43,103
What if it was Andre?

585
00:26:45,183 --> 00:26:47,666
Andre won't have Keo
threatening him anymore.

586
00:26:52,714 --> 00:26:54,347
Aren't you tired of all this?

587
00:26:54,382 --> 00:26:56,282
Damn right, I am.

588
00:26:56,318 --> 00:26:59,285
Then help us get justice.

589
00:26:59,321 --> 00:27:00,986
I've tried to do the right thing

590
00:27:01,022 --> 00:27:02,855
this whole time.

591
00:27:02,890 --> 00:27:04,857
I turned in the gun
like I was supposed to.

592
00:27:04,892 --> 00:27:07,126
I told you the truth about
Keo when you asked me.

593
00:27:07,161 --> 00:27:10,996
I dropped what I was doing,
and came over here tonight.

594
00:27:11,032 --> 00:27:15,267
But if Drexel Posse finds out
I was anywhere near a courtroom,

595
00:27:15,303 --> 00:27:16,317
or a Grand Jury,

596
00:27:16,320 --> 00:27:18,942
what do you expect is going
to happen to me and Andre?

597
00:27:18,945 --> 00:27:21,682
What? You think locking Keo
up is gonna solve the problem?

598
00:27:27,291 --> 00:27:29,214
We can offer you both some protection.

599
00:27:29,216 --> 00:27:31,182
Protection. That sounds like a fine idea

600
00:27:31,218 --> 00:27:33,184
sitting up here in this nice law office.

601
00:27:33,220 --> 00:27:37,722
I'm sure you've got
programs, protocols, whatever.

602
00:27:37,757 --> 00:27:39,991
But it's the law of the
street we talking about now.

603
00:27:40,026 --> 00:27:44,329
These kids still paying back
grudges from five years ago.

604
00:27:44,364 --> 00:27:48,867
So what are you going to do?

605
00:27:48,902 --> 00:27:52,737
We'll stay with some friends
in Wrigleyville for a few days.

606
00:27:52,772 --> 00:27:56,841
After that, I don't know.

607
00:27:58,878 --> 00:28:01,345
But I've done all I can do for you now.

608
00:28:01,381 --> 00:28:04,147
I need to keep me and Andre alive.

609
00:28:08,421 --> 00:28:10,481
We appreciate your help.

610
00:28:18,234 --> 00:28:20,033
Stay safe.

611
00:28:27,806 --> 00:28:29,439
So that's it?

612
00:28:29,474 --> 00:28:31,040
Keo Vincent skates,

613
00:28:31,075 --> 00:28:34,143
and the Haleys get a
final kick in the gut.

614
00:28:48,459 --> 00:28:52,295
Cubs won.

615
00:28:52,330 --> 00:28:54,584
You came up here to
give me a baseball score?

616
00:28:58,002 --> 00:29:00,869
The Lara Haley trial isn't going well.

617
00:29:00,905 --> 00:29:03,872
Yeah. To say the least.

618
00:29:03,908 --> 00:29:05,373
Go home, Peter.

619
00:29:05,376 --> 00:29:07,476
There'll be another
innocent victim next week,

620
00:29:07,478 --> 00:29:09,210
and then another, and there's nothing

621
00:29:09,246 --> 00:29:11,379
you nor I can do about it.

622
00:29:11,415 --> 00:29:12,793
You know, if I believed that,

623
00:29:12,796 --> 00:29:15,864
I'd be coaching at some
junior college in Wisconsin.

624
00:29:22,359 --> 00:29:24,892
My grandparents lived in this small town

625
00:29:24,928 --> 00:29:27,462
in eastern Tennessee.

626
00:29:27,497 --> 00:29:30,165
And I went down there
many years ago to talk to

627
00:29:30,200 --> 00:29:33,267
this lawyer who was
drafting their wills.

628
00:29:35,204 --> 00:29:38,506
The walls of his offices were lined

629
00:29:38,541 --> 00:29:41,509
with paintings of trees.

630
00:29:41,544 --> 00:29:44,912
What kind of trees?

631
00:29:44,948 --> 00:29:46,814
He'd painted every tree in the county

632
00:29:46,850 --> 00:29:51,151
where a black man was lynched.

633
00:29:51,187 --> 00:29:53,487
Black kids killing black kids.

634
00:29:53,522 --> 00:29:57,024
This is 300 years in the making.

635
00:29:57,059 --> 00:30:01,428
It doesn't mean we can't
try to make things better.

636
00:30:01,464 --> 00:30:04,264
Better has to come from the inside.

637
00:30:04,300 --> 00:30:07,934
Not from politicians like
me, or do-gooders like you.

638
00:30:07,970 --> 00:30:10,537
You know, there are a
lot of people who think

639
00:30:10,572 --> 00:30:12,939
nothing's going to change
until the mothers and fathers

640
00:30:12,975 --> 00:30:16,442
in my community start
behaving like parents.

641
00:30:16,478 --> 00:30:18,444
Enforcing some rules.

642
00:30:18,480 --> 00:30:21,780
Reading books to their
sons and daughters.

643
00:30:21,816 --> 00:30:24,384
I didn't say that.

644
00:30:24,419 --> 00:30:26,119
No.

645
00:30:26,154 --> 00:30:27,487
But you think it.

646
00:30:27,522 --> 00:30:30,189
Am I right?

647
00:30:32,394 --> 00:30:33,701
Guilty as charged.

648
00:30:33,704 --> 00:30:36,062
But we both know it's more complicated.

649
00:30:36,097 --> 00:30:39,398
You're damn right it is.

650
00:30:39,433 --> 00:30:41,567
Don't beat yourself up.

651
00:30:41,602 --> 00:30:44,189
You are nothing if not persistent.

652
00:30:44,192 --> 00:30:46,910
What's that supposed to mean?

653
00:30:49,577 --> 00:30:54,546
You found a way to strong-arm
all those big telecom companies.

654
00:30:54,581 --> 00:30:57,015
And I'm sure you're gonna
find a way to take down

655
00:30:57,051 --> 00:30:59,969
the one little gangbanger
that killed Lara Haley.

656
00:31:10,666 --> 00:31:12,378
Your client's out of the hospital?

657
00:31:12,404 --> 00:31:15,573
He's on crutches, but he's good to go.

658
00:31:15,598 --> 00:31:18,031
You've had your 72 hours, Mr. Stone.

659
00:31:18,066 --> 00:31:20,233
- Are you ready to proceed?
- Yes and no.

660
00:31:20,269 --> 00:31:22,469
We're moving to dismiss our case
against Ms. Schmidt's client.

661
00:31:22,471 --> 00:31:24,237
- Fabulous, we consent...
- But...

662
00:31:24,273 --> 00:31:26,674
we're still pressing
forward with his trial.

663
00:31:26,709 --> 00:31:29,209
- I'm confused.
- You're not the only one.

664
00:31:29,244 --> 00:31:32,034
We'd like for Mr. Stackhouse to believe
there's still a case against him.

665
00:31:32,036 --> 00:31:34,380
Same with the Jury, and
anyone outside this room.

666
00:31:34,416 --> 00:31:37,383
You're asking me to preside
over what's essentially a ruse?

667
00:31:37,419 --> 00:31:39,953
Well, I wouldn't use that word.

668
00:31:39,988 --> 00:31:41,587
We'd like the trial
to keep going so I can

669
00:31:41,589 --> 00:31:44,057
call a witness to the
stand named Keo Vincent.

670
00:31:44,092 --> 00:31:45,959
He's a gang associate
of Ms. Schmidt's client,

671
00:31:45,994 --> 00:31:48,127
and in all probability,
the one who fired the shot

672
00:31:48,162 --> 00:31:50,296
that killed Lara Haley.

673
00:31:50,332 --> 00:31:52,252
I want the right person
in jail for this crime,

674
00:31:52,266 --> 00:31:54,400
but what you're proposing
is highly unusual.

675
00:31:54,436 --> 00:31:56,101
But not without precedent.

676
00:31:56,137 --> 00:31:57,903
In certain extraordinary circumstances,

677
00:31:57,939 --> 00:32:01,240
shadow proceedings have
been conducted in New York.

678
00:32:01,275 --> 00:32:03,575
And in Operation Greylord,
right here in Cook County.

679
00:32:03,610 --> 00:32:05,577
Okay, just so I'm clear on this.

680
00:32:05,612 --> 00:32:07,947
You've mistakenly charged
my client with murder.

681
00:32:07,982 --> 00:32:09,949
As a result, he was shot and wounded,

682
00:32:09,984 --> 00:32:11,283
and is lucky to be alive.

683
00:32:11,319 --> 00:32:14,453
And now you want to use him as bait?

684
00:32:14,488 --> 00:32:16,555
Exactly. If there was
any other option...

685
00:32:16,590 --> 00:32:18,590
He's a human being, not
a pawn in a chess game.

686
00:32:18,625 --> 00:32:21,693
I won't be a party to this.

687
00:32:23,975 --> 00:32:25,655
Give me a minute.

688
00:32:28,268 --> 00:32:29,668
Kerry. Kerry!

689
00:32:29,703 --> 00:32:31,436
- Please.
- How could you do this to me?

690
00:32:31,472 --> 00:32:32,937
- To you?
- Yes, to me.

691
00:32:32,973 --> 00:32:34,606
This is my first homicide trial,

692
00:32:34,641 --> 00:32:37,141
and you're asking me to do
something that's shady at best.

693
00:32:37,177 --> 00:32:39,310
We're dismissing the case.
Your client's gonna walk.

694
00:32:39,346 --> 00:32:43,114
I'm deceiving a client,
participating in a sham trial.

695
00:32:43,149 --> 00:32:44,282
Okay.

696
00:32:44,317 --> 00:32:46,450
Wait.

697
00:32:46,486 --> 00:32:48,019
We know who killed Lara Haley now,

698
00:32:48,054 --> 00:32:49,687
and the only way we're
gonna get this guy

699
00:32:49,722 --> 00:32:52,767
is if we all take a little risk.

700
00:32:52,770 --> 00:32:54,070
When I started here,

701
00:32:54,073 --> 00:32:56,260
they had me doing research in Appeals.

702
00:32:56,295 --> 00:32:58,596
Stone was prosecuting Victor Cathridge.

703
00:32:58,631 --> 00:33:00,631
The guy who murdered
three women on the L.

704
00:33:00,666 --> 00:33:02,666
One day during the trial,
I walked into the courtroom

705
00:33:02,668 --> 00:33:03,717
to drop off a brief.

706
00:33:03,720 --> 00:33:05,636
Stone was cross-examining a witness,

707
00:33:05,671 --> 00:33:07,471
and while I was waiting there,

708
00:33:07,507 --> 00:33:10,640
I saw Cathridge was
fidgeting with something

709
00:33:10,675 --> 00:33:12,109
under the defense table.

710
00:33:12,144 --> 00:33:13,610
- Oh, no.
- It was suspicious,

711
00:33:13,645 --> 00:33:15,779
and I thought about
alerting one the deputies,

712
00:33:15,814 --> 00:33:17,781
but Cathridge would see it coming.

713
00:33:17,816 --> 00:33:20,350
So I tip-toed into the well,

714
00:33:20,386 --> 00:33:22,552
handed the brief to
Peter's second chair,

715
00:33:22,587 --> 00:33:24,721
and as I was walking out,

716
00:33:24,756 --> 00:33:27,189
I flipped over the defense table.

717
00:33:27,225 --> 00:33:29,492
Before anyone knew what was going on,

718
00:33:29,528 --> 00:33:31,327
there were four deputies
on top of Cathridge,

719
00:33:31,362 --> 00:33:34,664
one had me in a choke hold
until I could point them

720
00:33:34,699 --> 00:33:37,882
to the razorblade Cathridge
had wedged under the table.

721
00:33:37,885 --> 00:33:39,618
If you want the right results,

722
00:33:39,621 --> 00:33:43,806
sometimes you have to
do something unorthodox.

723
00:33:45,330 --> 00:33:48,398
So what do you say?

724
00:33:50,714 --> 00:33:51,747
Who is it?

725
00:33:51,782 --> 00:33:53,549
Peoples Gas, ma'am.

726
00:33:53,584 --> 00:33:55,664
Sorry to disturb you, but
I'm checking on a gas leak.

727
00:33:55,686 --> 00:33:58,099
No gas in here.

728
00:33:58,102 --> 00:33:59,868
Either you let me in to check it out,

729
00:33:59,871 --> 00:34:03,391
or I go downstairs to shut
off your gas and electric.

730
00:34:05,529 --> 00:34:06,829
State's Attorney, Mrs. Vincent.

731
00:34:06,864 --> 00:34:08,363
You tricked me.

732
00:34:08,398 --> 00:34:09,731
What's going on, Ma?

733
00:34:10,543 --> 00:34:12,443
I got nothing to say to you.

734
00:34:12,446 --> 00:34:14,146
We have a material witness order.

735
00:34:14,149 --> 00:34:16,771
- You need to come with us.
- Material witness?

736
00:34:16,806 --> 00:34:19,441
It means the judge wants him
to come to court to testify.

737
00:34:19,476 --> 00:34:21,242
- Testify about what?
- Don't worry.

738
00:34:21,278 --> 00:34:23,244
- I got this.
- You sure?

739
00:34:23,280 --> 00:34:25,046
Give me a call when you get there.

740
00:34:25,082 --> 00:34:27,449
No service on my cell, Ma.
You ain't paying my bill.

741
00:34:27,484 --> 00:34:30,051
I did pay your bill. What you think?

742
00:34:30,087 --> 00:34:31,552
You two can settle this later.

743
00:34:31,588 --> 00:34:34,856
It should only take a couple of hours.

744
00:34:37,126 --> 00:34:39,760
Call your next witness, Mr. Stone.

745
00:34:39,796 --> 00:34:41,817
The People call Keo Vincent.

746
00:34:57,041 --> 00:34:59,413
Do you solemnly swear that
the testimony you're about

747
00:34:59,415 --> 00:35:00,914
to give will be the
truth, the whole truth,

748
00:35:00,916 --> 00:35:02,582
and nothing but the
truth so help you God?

749
00:35:02,618 --> 00:35:04,584
Do I got a choice?

750
00:35:04,620 --> 00:35:06,620
I'll take that as a yes.

751
00:35:07,310 --> 00:35:09,310
Morning, Keo.

752
00:35:10,659 --> 00:35:13,493
I'd like to call your attention
to the afternoon of July 11th.

753
00:35:13,529 --> 00:35:15,729
Were you in the Englewood
neighborhood that day?

754
00:35:15,764 --> 00:35:17,597
- Could be.
- Specifically at the home

755
00:35:17,633 --> 00:35:20,266
of your cousin, a boy
named Andre Williams?

756
00:35:20,301 --> 00:35:21,434
Andre said I was there?

757
00:35:21,469 --> 00:35:24,437
Just answer the question.

758
00:35:24,480 --> 00:35:26,313
I don't remember.

759
00:35:26,341 --> 00:35:28,207
But you do remember changing
into some of Andre's clothes

760
00:35:28,209 --> 00:35:29,775
around that time, right?

761
00:35:29,810 --> 00:35:31,444
What kind of clothes?

762
00:35:31,479 --> 00:35:33,446
It was a black polo
shirt, some blue jeans.

763
00:35:33,481 --> 00:35:35,448
He's littler than me.

764
00:35:35,483 --> 00:35:37,283
We don't even wear the same size.

765
00:35:37,318 --> 00:35:39,117
But you do remember being there now?

766
00:35:39,153 --> 00:35:40,221
Can't say for sure.

767
00:35:40,224 --> 00:35:42,655
And speaking with your
uncle, Ernest Williams.

768
00:35:42,690 --> 00:35:44,450
If I was there and he
was there, then yeah,

769
00:35:44,458 --> 00:35:45,683
I would've talked to him.

770
00:35:45,686 --> 00:35:47,893
Maybe you remember that
Andre gave you something.

771
00:35:47,895 --> 00:35:49,762
He gave you a...

772
00:35:49,797 --> 00:35:50,871
It was a bag.

773
00:35:50,874 --> 00:35:53,741
Just a small, brown bag
with something heavy in it.

774
00:35:54,468 --> 00:35:56,301
I gotta answer all these questions?

775
00:35:56,336 --> 00:36:00,638
Do your best.

776
00:36:00,674 --> 00:36:06,311
I don't know nothing
about any brown bag.

777
00:36:06,346 --> 00:36:07,946
Judge, I'd like to show the witness

778
00:36:07,981 --> 00:36:09,948
what's being offered
as People's Exhibit 1.

779
00:36:09,983 --> 00:36:12,183
All right.

780
00:36:16,723 --> 00:36:20,224
You ever seen that
particular gun before?

781
00:36:20,259 --> 00:36:22,393
No.

782
00:36:22,428 --> 00:36:23,476
Fair enough.

783
00:36:23,479 --> 00:36:25,563
Can defense counsel have
an opportunity to see

784
00:36:25,565 --> 00:36:27,211
this exhibit?

785
00:36:27,214 --> 00:36:28,843
Actually,

786
00:36:28,846 --> 00:36:32,336
Keo, you wanna make sure
that thing's not loaded?

787
00:36:34,340 --> 00:36:36,307
Chamber's clear.

788
00:36:36,342 --> 00:36:40,478
And what about the magazine?

789
00:36:40,513 --> 00:36:43,481
Clip's empty, too.

790
00:36:43,516 --> 00:36:47,550
Can I see the gun, please?

791
00:36:49,955 --> 00:36:52,355
Now, the magazine release on this gun...

792
00:36:52,390 --> 00:36:55,191
It's inoperable.

793
00:36:55,227 --> 00:36:58,695
But you knew that
because this is your gun.

794
00:36:58,731 --> 00:37:00,696
That's why you had to
smack the handle a few times

795
00:37:00,732 --> 00:37:01,998
to get the mag to release.

796
00:37:02,033 --> 00:37:03,366
Just like you did four months ago

797
00:37:03,401 --> 00:37:04,767
when you loaded this same gun,

798
00:37:04,802 --> 00:37:06,369
jumped on your bike,
and rode to the corner

799
00:37:06,371 --> 00:37:07,837
of 68th Street and Marshfield Avenue

800
00:37:07,872 --> 00:37:09,739
where you opened fire on
a group of gang rivals,

801
00:37:09,741 --> 00:37:11,608
killing a ten-year-old
girl in the process.

802
00:37:11,643 --> 00:37:13,276
Man, you making all this up.

803
00:37:13,311 --> 00:37:14,744
Coming at me about some nonsense

804
00:37:14,779 --> 00:37:16,212
about some button that don't work.

805
00:37:16,248 --> 00:37:17,546
That means I drill somebody?

806
00:37:17,581 --> 00:37:19,849
You know what? I'm out of here.

807
00:37:19,884 --> 00:37:21,550
The People move to dismiss all charges

808
00:37:21,585 --> 00:37:22,660
against Chris Stackhouse.

809
00:37:22,663 --> 00:37:24,654
Arrest this man for the
murder of Lara Haley.

810
00:37:24,656 --> 00:37:26,588
- Let me go.
- Hands behind your back!

811
00:37:26,624 --> 00:37:28,290
Let me go!

812
00:37:28,325 --> 00:37:30,726
Let me go, man!

813
00:37:30,762 --> 00:37:32,394
- Let me go, man.
- Stay down.

814
00:37:32,429 --> 00:37:34,863
I didn't do nothing to that girl.

815
00:37:38,469 --> 00:37:40,469
You're sure he's the one
who killed our daughter?

816
00:37:40,471 --> 00:37:41,903
I am now.

817
00:37:41,938 --> 00:37:43,472
Sometimes you have to make a wrong turn

818
00:37:43,474 --> 00:37:44,939
before you find your way.

819
00:37:44,975 --> 00:37:46,941
I'm sorry to put you through this again.

820
00:37:46,977 --> 00:37:48,610
We'll be there.

821
00:37:48,646 --> 00:37:50,478
Thank you.

822
00:37:50,513 --> 00:37:54,482
That boy was barely older than Lara was.

823
00:38:00,824 --> 00:38:03,558
Don't tell me. Another ride home?

824
00:38:03,593 --> 00:38:05,727
Nope.

825
00:38:05,762 --> 00:38:08,062
You're on your own now.

826
00:38:08,097 --> 00:38:10,431
Hey, Stackhouse.

827
00:38:10,466 --> 00:38:12,600
Yeah?

828
00:38:12,635 --> 00:38:14,968
Crossroads for you.

829
00:38:15,004 --> 00:38:16,333
What you mean?

830
00:38:16,336 --> 00:38:18,506
You just beat a murder rap and a bullet.

831
00:38:18,541 --> 00:38:20,040
Keep doing what you're
doing, sooner or later,

832
00:38:20,042 --> 00:38:22,577
your luck's gonna run out.

833
00:38:22,612 --> 00:38:23,935
Here.

834
00:38:23,938 --> 00:38:25,813
A guy I know runs a
jobs training program

835
00:38:25,815 --> 00:38:27,614
in Hyde Park.

836
00:38:27,649 --> 00:38:30,784
Use my name. He'll hook you up.

837
00:38:30,820 --> 00:38:32,886
Maybe.

838
00:38:38,849 --> 00:38:40,548
Now was that so terrible?

839
00:38:40,551 --> 00:38:43,096
I hate to admit it, but
I did enjoy the show.

840
00:38:43,131 --> 00:38:45,031
And you get to walk back
to your office and tell them

841
00:38:45,033 --> 00:38:46,533
you won your first homicide trial.

842
00:38:46,568 --> 00:38:48,101
Hm. Not sure what I'll tell my boss

843
00:38:48,136 --> 00:38:49,969
when he asks me how, but...

844
00:38:50,004 --> 00:38:51,771
The prosecutors stunk up the courtroom?

845
00:38:51,806 --> 00:38:52,754
Not bad.

846
00:38:52,757 --> 00:38:54,907
At least I can say that
with a straight face.

847
00:38:56,077 --> 00:38:59,345
See you in court, Counsel.

848
00:39:00,840 --> 00:39:02,272
I'm getting calls.

849
00:39:02,275 --> 00:39:04,483
Detroit, Baltimore.

850
00:39:04,518 --> 00:39:06,652
They want to know if
this thing actually works.

851
00:39:06,687 --> 00:39:08,354
Well, the two gangs in
Englewood have been quiet

852
00:39:08,356 --> 00:39:09,613
for a couple of days now.

853
00:39:09,616 --> 00:39:12,423
You can't kick millenials
off social media forever.

854
00:39:12,426 --> 00:39:14,393
It's like air and water to us.

855
00:39:14,428 --> 00:39:16,895
They'll find out how to
get back on soon enough.

856
00:39:16,930 --> 00:39:19,831
Still, not a bad week.

857
00:39:19,867 --> 00:39:21,800
All it took was a phony trial,

858
00:39:21,835 --> 00:39:25,504
tricking a 15-year-old
into incriminating himself,

859
00:39:25,539 --> 00:39:27,839
and goosing the Due Process Clause

860
00:39:27,875 --> 00:39:29,540
and The First Amendment.

861
00:39:29,576 --> 00:39:30,976
All with judicial approval.

862
00:39:31,011 --> 00:39:32,878
And a last minute save.

863
00:39:58,037 --> 00:40:00,004
Oh, no.

864
00:40:26,906 --> 00:40:31,671
