What we gonna do...
- Annabeth - What's going on?
Jason is dead
Oh my GOD
shadow ??? we know
is there anything I can do so ???
- Cindy asked to bring with her - Ok
How we going on???
Hi, Jimmy hearing right now
Jason is one of my neighbour my friends' wife???
the suspect is drug dealer name ???Wallace
- What we know about - Wallace is Myers ???
He went to meet with ???
Is Wallace in custody?
He's holed up in his house
That's why I'm calling you
Detective Logan's request for an arrest warrant was denied
I need you to change the judge's mind
Okay, I'm on my way
Why couldn't I get the warrant?
Three words, pal
Judge Abraham Schlicter
The clown loves criminals simple as that
You tell him Wallace was suspected of killing a cop?
Of course I did
I got a lecture on the presumption of innocence
Prosecutor's on the way to court now
Tell me what happened so I can tell her
what she needs to get you your warrant
Myers told his unit he was meeting Wallace at midnight
Residents heard gunshots at 12:07
Myers told his unit he was meeting Wallace
behind the Sorano Brothers warehouse
Where was he killed?
Behind the Sorano Brothers warehouse
Those the guys from Myers' unit?
Narcotics task force, yeah
You get affidavits from them?
I swore out the warrant on my own affidavit
With anyone but Schlicter that would have been enough
Annabeth
Okay, here's the deal
I'm going to get affidavits from Myers' partners
and fax them to you at the courthouse
Those police affidavits don't change my opinion, Ms. Chase
I was a defense attorney
I know how the rules change when a cop's killed
You think they're unreliable?
I think they're emotional
Their partner was just killed
What about the .380 casings recovered at the scene?
Wallace used the same type of weapon in two prior crimes
Come back when ballistics proves it's the same weapon in this crime
Ballistics aren't normally needed
for probable cause, Your Honor
They are with me under the circumstances
Officer Myers' partners aren't leaving Wallace's house until he's arrested
They could build a campfire and sing "Kumbaya"
Their affidavits don't change my decision
You're forcing me to call Judge Jenkins
That's judge shopping it's unethical
I don't have a choice
My boss won't let me leave without the warrant
Since Judge Jenkins is your boss
why don't we let him figure it out?
I didn't do nothing!
You're going to burn for this!
I didn't do nothing!
Yeah, I ain't no cop killer
You know him?
Brian Flynn Myers' partner
All right, ten minutes let them know you care
- I do care, Pete - Of course you do
Mrs. Myers
James Conlon
I'm very sorry for your loss, ma'am
Thank you
Mr. Conlon Chris Veeder
I was Jason's colleague and friend
My wife Samantha
Mr. Conlon
We all loved Jason Myers so much
We're heartbroken
I can assure you all
my office will do everything it can to convict his killer
We want you to know
that we are supporting you in your upcoming campaign
- We? - The police and their families
Well, thank you
We need to talk
After the briefing
I look forward to seeing you at the Children's Hospital fundraiser
Me, too. It's about the briefing
Is there a problem?
It's not something this crowd is going to want to hear
What is it?
Crime techs found this note in Myers' car this morning
Kellie with an I-E
Like a girl's name not a last name
$300, Sorano Brothers warehouse
Where he was shot
You think he was meeting her that night?
I think it's a possibility
That $300 he withdrew from an ATM just before midnight
on the way to the meet might suggest why
What are you suggesting?
A prostitute
It's a thought
The money is missing
Aside from the money
anything else to suggest this was illicit?
Myers told his partner he was meetingan informant
He told his wife he was meeting his partner Brian Flynn
This complicates the case
This complicates everything
Close to Home 220
Column A: Myers is a hero killed in the line of duty by a dirtbag drug dealer
We're heroes for convicting the turd who did it
Column B: the Kellie question
Did she meet him?
If so, why?
And why did he lie to his wife and partners about it?
Was she his girlfriend a prostitute
an informant, the killer?
Until we answer these questions
we can't prosecute Wallace for the crime
Go ahead tell her what you told me
She already did me once
You remember, don't you?
How'd that work out for you?
I didn't kill Myers
Where were you last night?
Playing Nintendo with my cousin
Cousin's name is Darren Smith
Here's his affidavit
He's available for a deposition at your convenience
Why were the bullets in your house?
They weren't mine
A jury's not going to believe that
and when ballistics matches them
to the casings from the scene, you're done
Myers' partners were in the house
They could have easily put the bullets there
Is that your defense?
He was framed?
Those cops decided Mr. Wallace was guilty
and then found a way to prove it
He had no reason to kill Myers
Of course he did-- Myers forced Wallace to choose
between years in jail on the drug charge
and informing on a kingpin
He was desperate not to do either
It's a good story
and I understand
why Myers' unit wants to believe it but it's not true
You have no eyewitnesses no murder weapon
and no way to counter a credible alibi
Nintendo with cousin Darren Please
Okay, look, you're making a mistake, Maureen
I mean, we both know
this is about Conlon running for office
Catch and convict a cop killer?
I mean, that's something to campaign on
Putting Conlon or the cops on trial isn't going to work
If you want a deal find a better story than that
Detective Flynn Ed Williams
Hello We met at the scene
Correct
I knew Jason Myers
He was a good guy
Best partner I ever had Or ever will
Listen, Williams, I was just on my way out, so...
Oh, no problem no problem
You mind if I take a look at Myers' file on Wallace?
You know, you wouldn't believe the hell we get for sharing files
Better to go through channels You should request them
from the drug prosecutors in your office
I'll do that
Just one question
Was it unusual for Myers
to have a one-on-one meeting with Wallace?
Not really
I'm just wondering why you weren't there
The way we handle our informants is pretty complicated
I'd be happy to walk you through it when I have time
- You Ed? - Yeah
Ed Williams Prosecutor's Office?
Chris Veeder Nice to meet you
Come on in
You read the Bible?
Yeah, occasionally
I had one with pictures when I was a kid
Your guys don't much want to talk to me
Sorry about that
You know how it can get cops and prosecutors
- How can we help? - I'm just trying to make sense
of this note we found in Myers' car
Do you know who this uh, Kellie might be?
How's she pertinent?
Well, the note makes it look like Myers met her that night
That'd mean he lied to us about what he was doing
That's pretty hard to imagine if you knew the man
I did and I agree with you
but we still have to consider the possibility
she's a prostitute
Myers and a hooker?
That's even harder to imagine
Besides, it'd be stupid to lie about meeting an informant
All my guys log every meeting I see the logs daily
Myers was new to the unit maybe...
Six months-- that's long enough to learn the system
Look, I understand you need to knock down the prostitute theory before the trial
but there's nothing to it
He went there to meet Wallace
All my guys will testify to that
Wallace's attorney
is saying your unit planted the .380 ammo in Wallace's house
to frame him for Myers' murder
Of course he is
The place was crawling with police, reporters, you guys
It would have been impossible even if we'd wanted to
which we didn't There's no need to frame the guy 'cause he's guilty
I'm sorry, it's just that Jason was a great guy, a great cop
His widow is like a sister to me
I'd hate to see his reputation dragged through the mud
by some... lawyer
Well, the sooner I find this Kellie
the sooner I can put the rumors to rest
I just put Amanda to bed so it was around 8:00
Jason just got a phone call
Said it was Flynn that they needed to do something
for work later that night
Did you ask what?
Jason's job had him coming and going at all hours
I was used to it
How has your relationship been?
Why ask about that?
Because Wallace's lawyer will
If Jason lied to you that night
Wallace's lawyer will find out about that
and about the note we found
Why make me doubt him, Annabeth?
- That's not what I'm trying to do - Then don't ask these questions
You know what terrified me when my husband died?
Cleaning out his closet
I thought I'd find something that would make me jealous
make me think he wasn't the man I thought he was
And it did
An invoice from a lumber store
The girl who wrote it put a big heart
beside her name-- Caroline
What did you do?
I put Haley in the car and went shopping for some bookshelves
And?
And Caroline was beautiful and I felt sick
And I went ahead and bought the shelves
and she rang them up and wrote out an invoice...
And signed it with a heart?
That's just how she signed her invoices
Jason was irritable last week
He wasn't himself
Did he say why?
I didn't ask
I thought it was his job
that he'd tell me when he was ready
Cindy...
We were happy Annabeth
He wasn't cheating on me
I would know that
I'm going to go check on Amanda
Okay
She needs a break
You need to leave
I'm sorry, who are you?
A friend of Jason's I'll walk you out
No, I'm fine, thanks
I couldn't say anything to you inside
What are you talking about?
It'd help me a lot if you keep looking pissed-off while we talk
That shouldn't be a problem
I'm Matt Ewing I'm a homicide detective
Go on
I have my doubts this Wallace punk was the shooter
Why?
Jason and I were close
I'm godfather to his kid
He came to me a week ago
and told me he wanted out of Veeder's unit
Okay. So?
He spent three years trying to get in to that unit
Something big must have happened to make him want to leave
But you don't know what
He'd just gotten back from a hunting trip
with Veeder and the other guys
Maybe something finally made him see the light
You don't like Veeder?
I think his unit's corrupt and I know Jason wasn't
How do you know his unit's corrupt?
I don't know I have my suspicions
Corrupt how?
Steal and deal-- they're drug cops
Use your imagination
Is that what you're doing?
Maybe, but since I'm risking my career even talking to you
it might be worth looking into
You can investigate this I can't
I'm going to walk away now
Bass Hill Lodge that's where they went
You did a great job looking pissed-off
It wasn't that hard
I remember the face
He's a cop
Until he was murdered two days ago
Oh, that's too bad
Do you remember the group he was with?
Yeah
The great white turkey hunters
What's that mean?
Two days of hunting and no feathers
Anything happen between this man
and the people he was with?
- Like what? - An argument?
Oh, he did fight with one of them
Did it get physical?
- Fistfight? - No, just cussing
It was loud, though I had to ask them to can it
You know what it was about?
Yeah, the girl that he was with
What do you mean they were with?
A girl?
Well, she had her own room...
Was she a prostitute?
More like a party girl you know-- young
pretty, blonde
You get a name?
Kellie
Didn't get a last name
but, uh, I got a picture of her
if that'll help you
Oh... I bought that for the birds, but, uh...
it's not often we get girls like that up here
Meet Kellie Lawson
They lied to us
Veeder and Myers argued about her
on the hunting trip
What hunting trip?
Bass Hill Lodge
something Annabeth asked me to check out
Police found an eyewitness
She says she saw Wallace shoot Detective Myers
Really
How'd they find her?
They said Veeder's unit used street contacts
That's convenient
What's the problem?
Depose her
See how credible she seems to you
The guy was just sitting in his car
This boy Wallace comes up and...
The victim was in the car?
Yeah, like I said to the detective
It's right here in her statement, Ed
So, you were on the east side of the warehouse?
I don't know the sides by east, west
You saw the rear of the car so that would be the east
You sure that's what I said?
It's right here
That's right I remember that now
The back of the car
Taillights
Detective Logan lost the picture you I.D.
Would you I.D. the young man you saw again
please?
I'm trying to help here
It seems like you're trying to mess me up
Just identify the man that you saw
If you're sure just circle and sign it
She didn't see Wallace shoot Myers
We tripped her up within two minutes
We think Veeder and his guys put her up to it
- Why? - They lied to us about Kellie
they hid the fight between Veeder and Myers at the motel
and Cindy Myers told me
her husband wanted out of Veeder's unit
Mrs. Myers told you that?
She knew he was unhappy
So, you think they're framing Wallace
because they killed Myers?
They're narcotics detectives
Maybe they're corrupt
Maybe Myers threatened to expose that
Do you have evidence to support this theory?
Uh... no
If we subpoenaed Internal Affairs records
maybe we could find something
Well, that would make the focus of this investigation
of Veeder's unit and further weaken our case against Wallace
Look, I'm not going on a fishing expedition
against the police force based on speculation
You need to find this girl Kellie
The clock's running out on Wallace
We either need to charge him or release him
Myers arrested Wallace for drug possession
Did he ever charge him?
No, he pocketed the charge to press him for more information
File a possession charge
You're really rooting for Wallace, aren't you?
Look at his record
Prosecuting Wallace would be better for you politically
than accusing these cops of framing him or worse
You're absolutely right
As a prosecutor not a politician
And I hope the cops didn't do it, and Wallace did
So we will hold him on the drug charge until we're certain
Middle ground, Mo
We don't bring a case that isn't ready
and we don't let a suspected cop killer walk
Flynn, Who is she?
I can't talk to you
We know Veeder and Myers fought about her at the motel
That Myers wanted to leave the unit
Yeah, well, my union rep is Tony White
He was your friend Flynn
Your partner
Doesn't that mean anything to you?
Come on, just...
tell me what the hell is going on
Don't pursue this
You're just going to make Myers look bad
and piss a whole lot of people off
Wallace killed him
Just do your job, Williams
Thanks for meeting me
Yeah, don't ever call me again at work
Matt, we're spinning our wheels
I need something to push this case forward
All right, what did you find out?
We looked into the hunting trip
Veeder and Myers had a fight
apparently about a girl
That's it? They fought about a girl?
The same girl he may have met the night he was killed We need to find her
What about looking into Veeder's unit?
My boss won't subpoena Internal Affairs records
'Cause he's running for office
Because if I investigated the unit
and they didn't make a corruptions case
he's not going to try to make one himself
Now, that could change once we find this girl
you asked me to look into this
Why don't you just tell me what you know?
You know what I know
Right now, all we have is this girl
We've been checking prostitution arrests missing persons reports
youth shelters all over town
Sorry, I don't recognize her
And I'm serious
Don't call me at work
That's Kellie Lawson
but she doesn't live here anymore
Where's she live now?
I don't know
Up and left last week in a big rush
Is she in trouble?
We just need to talk to her
Did you know she was involved with older men?
Okay, kids, time to hit the hoops
That means you
So, did you know she was involved with older men?
You mean romantically?
Well, I don't know how romantic it was
but, uh, yeah
That surprises me
She was one of our successes
Came here at 14
and was on her way to college this fall
That's why I'm so concerned about her
It wasn't like her to just leave like that, without a word
Were you concerned enough to call the police?
I didn't have to call them
I told our director and she told her husband
Your director?
Samantha Veeder Her husband's a detective
You know him?
How you doing Ms. Chase?
Mr. Durkin
I want to subpoena the Greenwood Youth Shelter
- Why? - It's where Kellie Lawson
was staying until she disappeared
I pulled their nonprofit filing papers
The wives of three cops in Veeder's unit work at Greenwood
Mrs. Veeder's the executive director
Why is that so obviously wrong?
These ladies aren't serving soup
They're executives making very, very good salaries
- How much? - I don't know Without their tax return...
Which we'll never be able to get
Look, if Veeder's unit is dirty
they may be using the shelter to launder money
This is a hunch
It's worth looking into, Jimmy
Thanks, Nancy Drew
But we're going to need something more than that
You target cops they target us
Meaning you your campaign
She's right, you know
Wouldn't be good for the campaign
There's a lot at stake here
This is not about the campaign
I need those subpoenas
You'll get subpoenas when I get something more than hunches
I will e-mail you about those poll numbers, okay?
- Man... - What's wrong?
I can't find my keys
I've looked everywhere
and I've got to get home to the baby sitter
I'll give you a ride home
- You can come back for yourar tomorrow - Really?
- Yeah - Thank you
Thanks, Maureen
See you tomorrow
Patricia?
We're in the kitchen
Hi
Hi, Haley
The front door was open
That's weird
Did you lock it?
I thought I did
Where were you?
Giving Haley a bath
Oh, honey
Oh
What's wrong?
- How did those get there? - What?
My keys
I don't know
Okay, I'll see you tomorrow
- are you sure? - Yeah, I'm fine
Veeder sending you a message
Cocky bastards
I feel silly calling you
I just... I don't... This is serious
I need to know how serious
I mean, are they just toying with me or are
my child and I in real danger?
Veeder know you're investigating him?
I'm sure he does
We asked Flynn why he lied about the girl
He must have told Veeder
If they killed Jason they'll kill you
Will your office provide protection?
Someone for your daughter?
An escort for you to work?
Of course
They still give prosecutors guns?
Yeah. They don't teach us how to use them
Learn
Maybe
Thanks for coming over
Ah, it's nothing
No, it's late
I don't live far
Matt, I want to tell my boss about you
- No - It may be the only way to get him
to investigate Veeder's unit
- No! - It would mean something to him that you're a cop
I'm talking to you
I like talking to you
I'm not going any further than that
I like being a cop too much to commit career suicide
Okay, I understand
I'm sorry
I'll stay tonight if it would make you feel safe
Oh, um...
On the couch, of course
On the couch
Yeah
I'll get you some blankets
Some watchdog
Sleep well?
Yeah. Thanks
My nanny comes in 20 minutes, so...
I'll sneak out the back
Thanks
What can I do for you, Greg?
Somebody put Wallace in the infirmary last night
They broke his nose and two ribs
- Who? - He won't say
Look, holding Wallace on this possession charge is bull
He didn't ??? Either indict him for murder so I can see the evidence and defend him
or let him make bail on the drug charge
I can get Wallace into protective custody
but the charge is Conlon's decision
That's why I came to you
Wallace didn't kill that cop
He shouldn't be getting his ass beaten
to maintain Conlon's poll numbers
I mean, come on this is politics
Maureen and it's racial And you know it
This is not about race, Greg
Then just do what's right
What happened to your keys?
Someone took them from my office and left them in my kitchen
A little message from Veeder's unit
Don't worry, I already told Conlon to talk to Ed about security
Who's that?
Officer Wayne Michaels
He spent two years in jail for having sex
with a minor-- Kellie Lawson
When?
Three years ago
Michaels was 45 at the time Kellie was 15
and living at the Greenwood Shelter
Does this connect to the Myers murder?
That's the thing-- Michaels was in Veeder's unit
And two weeks before Kellie accused him
of sleeping with her he tried to transfer out
So now, two cops who wanted to leave the unit are linked to Kellie
I think Veeder used her to to control both of them
Well, Michaels admitted he had sex with Kellie
He claimed Veeder introduced him to her at the shelter
Creepy
Thanks, Mom
It was Veeder's way of keeping us loyal
He called it "drinking the cup" À´×ÔÂíÌ«¸£Òô 20:22
The bastard had a quote from the Bible
I saw it
"Are you able to drink the cup"
"that I am about to drink"
and they said to him 'We are able'
That's Jesus about to die for God
"Drinking the cup" means he's going to sit
at the right hand of God and Veeder...
Who is God
He was to us
So you had sex with Kellie Lawson to please Veeder?
He told me she was 18
She wasn't I went to jail
and now I'm on the sex offenders list
for the rest of my life
I'm not asking for pity I did it
But I did it for him I know that sounds crazy
but it's crazy how much I revered him
By the time I understood what was going on
I was in it up to my hips
After a few months
in the unit he lets you know it's okay
to skim a few hundred here and there
Pretty soon your wife she's got this great job
working at Greenwood
The money, it's... it's rolling in life is good
Then Veeder starts with that "drink from the cup" stuff
Blowing in your ear about this and that
trying to find out at floats your boat
See, he knows by now you're one of his
An acolyte, a follower
So he's planting the seed
nurturing that thing you're going to do for him
The unforgivable thing
The minute he introduced me to Kellie
I knew we were going to have sex
Veeder wanted it so I wanted it
He told me she was 18 because
- I wanted to hear it - You drank the cup
The minute you do that...
Veeder owns you
So all the cops in his unit must have drank the cup
Oh, yeah
You need to tell us their secrets
Knowledge is power
Veeder kept most of it to himself
Only one I could really give you is Flynn
I can't talk to you
You know I can't talk to you
I know you guys steal from dealers
And I know where Sarah's salary comes from
Well, if you could prove that you wouldn't need me
so why would I talk to you?
Because I know about drinking the cup
I talked to Wayne Michaels
He told me your secret
What would that be?
Juliet Reynolds
- You wouldn't - I will put you on the stand, if I have to
- And I'll take the Fifth - I'll immunize you
- Then I'll lie - I'll indict you for perjury obstruction of justice
and conspiracy and I'll still confront you about Juliet in court
You would ruin my family
To convict Veeder for murder, yes
Flynn, he killed your partner I'd think you'd want to help me convict him
Jason was my best friend but I can't
Then give me another way to convict Veeder
if you do that I promise you I'll do everything I can to protect you
Veeder pushed Kellie on Jason to corrupt him
but Jason was disgusted
Said Veeder was treating Kellie like a whore
Veeder said "She's my whore
and who are you to turn her away
if I give her to you?" - They fought?
It got ugly
Afterwards, Jason said he would help Kellie get away from Veeder
- They were supposed to meet that night - The night he was murdered
Somehow Veeder found out
Do you have any idea what happened to Kellie?
She spooked, I don't know She didn't show up
Jason was waiting for her when Veeder...
Where's the gun?
He threw the gun in a storm drain
somewhere between the crime scene and his house
Can we connect the gun to Veeder?
I don't... maybe
I mean, he was in a hurry maybe he screwed up somehow
Okay. Show us where it is
Veeder's DNA is on the firing pin
Myers' blood is spattered inside the barrel
How'd you find it?
Annabeth asked Crime Tech to search the storm drains
between Veeder's house and the crime scene
Did you ask them to search anywhere else?
Uh, no, started with the drains, got lucky
Lucky, huh?
You have been ahead of us this whole case, Annabeth
It stops now
How'd you find the gun?
Flynn, he told me about the gun
to avoid testifying against Veeder
Is the gun enough?
It directly links Veeder to the murder
With Michaels the hotel manager
and other circumstantial evidence it's more than enough
Veeder murdered Myers no question
All right. Arrest him
I'll draft a statement clearing Wallace of suspicion of Myers' murder
Did I just hear you're indicting Veeder?
You're setting off a bomb, Jimmy
We need to think this through
This is not a political decision, Pete
Either find a way to make me look good for it
or find yourself another candidate
I don't want to find another candidate
Then accentuate the positive
Chris Veeder you are under arrest for murder Jason Myers
you have a right to remain silent
Anything you say can and will be used against me in a court of law
You have the right to ??? you can order???
- Doug - Annabeth
What are you doing here?
Chris Veeder is my client
How can you stand to?
When murders happen in monasteries I'll represent monks
Mr. Veeder believes that you were tipped off
to the location of that gun
Now, is that true?
That's irrelevant
Let's start with: is that true?
I don't have to answer that question
Well, you might
I mean, Mr. Veeder thinks that the gun
was planted there by somebody who's trying to frame him
That defense won't keep him out of jail
It depends on who gave you the gun
Now I'm going to file a motion to suppress it
unless you disclose your source
The weapon was found in a storm drain-- a public place
What's the issue Mr. Hellman?
Your Honor, my client believes that someone
put his DNA on the gun the gun was placed in the drain
and then they tipped off the prosecutor's office as to its location
Was the search for the gun based on a tip, Ms. Chase?
Your Honor, I shouldn't have to answer that question
Confidential informants
need to be able to provide evidence without having to disclose their identities
Yes, but this informant has
provided the only direct evidence connecting my client to the crime
The informant is in effect, an accuser
Now, Mr. Veeder
should be allowed to confront this accuser as he would any other
Mr. Veeder's DNA on the gun speaks for itself, Your Honor
Unless it was planted on the gun to frame him
Did this confidential informant give you a location of the gun?
Yes, Your Honor
Do you know this confidential informant's name?
Yes, Your Honor
Then, either he testifies or I'll exclude the gun at trial
You tell Flynn I'm looking forward to his testimony
Hi
Thanks for coming over
Yeah, I kind of missed your couch, actually
Matt, how well do you know Brian Flynn?
Not well
Just through Jason Why?
We're compelling him to testify
I need you to help me convince him to tell the truth
Didn't you promise not to call him?
Where'd you hear that?
Word gets around
If he doesn't testify the judge excludes the gun and we lose the case
Maybe there's a way to get the gun into evidence without destroying Flynn
- How? - Have him give the standard police answer
The standard police answer being?
I don't remember I can't recall
That way he doesn't say anything that
undermines your case, he doesn't have to rat out Veeder
and the gun gets in
But he does recall
And if he lies to the jury
I'm going to have to tell them why
I'm going to go
You made a promise to Flynn
You should keep it
I'll see you
You knew I promised to protect Flynn
when you proceeded with the charges
You promised not this office
The judge gave you an order
Flynn made his bed and now he gets exposed Immunity in return
We had no case without the gun
And now we have no gun without Flynn
Hellman will use Juliet Reynolds to discredit Flynn
Hey, it's your job to make the jury see that for the cynical defense tactic that it is
Veeder is cocky
He's also an experienced credible witness He'll take the stand
We need the gun
and Flynn's testimony to counter him
And what if Flynn lies on the stand?
What if he says he didn't give us the gun
and Veeder didn't kill Myers?
You need to convince him to tell the truth
Jimmy, he's afraid Veeder will kill him
We'll protect him the way we protect dozens of witnesses every year
Look, even if he lies
we still get the gun into evidence
Flynn is going to testify
No Flynn, no gun, no case
All right
Your copy of the immunity agreement
- Can we have a minute, please? - Yeah
Okay. Bye, hon Bye
I love you
It's going to be okay
I haven't told her yet about Juliet
Why not?
Well, I was hoping I wouldn't have to
We went over this
I'm asking you about Juliet on direct
so that Hellman can't use that to discredit you
I'm sorry Sarah finds out no matter what
Matt got ahold of me He said you know maybe I could say...
Say that you don't recall?
That's not going to happen
I will put Juliet on the stand if I have to
Brian, this is your chance to get out from under Veeder's thumb
Punish him for killing your partner
Tell the truth for Cindy's sake
You can destroy Veeder with your testimony
Good morning Detective Flynn
Good morning
Could you please tell us about the night Jason Myers was murdered?
Um..
Well, I...
- It... - It's all right, Take your time to recall the events of that night clearly
Did you see Detective Veeder that night
Uh...
Uh, he called me
He told me
Jason was dead
That he'd been shot
He told me to meet him at the crime scene
Detective Veeder told you he'd shot and killed Jason Myers?
And we both agreed to put the blame on Wallace
Why did he trust you?
Because he knew something about me
He knew that I'd had an affair
With Juliet Reynolds?
Yes
How did you meet Juliet Reynolds?
Veeder introduced us
He needed to have something to hold over me
He wanted you to "drink the cup"
Yes
By betraying my marriage
I'm sorry, Sarah I'm so sorry
Was there anything unusual about Juliet?
Yes
She was...
She is a transvestite
- A man - Yes
Order
Mr. Flynn, I know it took a lot of courage for you to testify today
Thank you for your honesty
Good afternoon, Detective Flynn
You didn't want your wife to find out
about your relationship with Juliet Reynolds, did you?
No, of course not
So, when Ms. Chase told you that either you testify that
Detective Veeder killed Jason Myers or else--
"or else" was too much of a risk
and that is when you told her about the gun, isn't it?
Yes
Didn't tell her about the gun
until after the subject of Mr. Juliet Reynolds came up, did you?
Yeah, that's correct
Did you put that gun in the storm drain?
No
Did you transfer Detective Veeder's DNA onto that gun?
- No - And you were desperate not to testify
so you made up evidence to support the crime that the prosecution demanded that you prove
Is that not true Detective Flynn?
No, that is... that is not true
We've heard "drinking the cup" is something of a motto
for your unit is that true?
When Jesus' disciples say in that passage from Matthew
that they are able to drink the cup
they submit themselves to something greater, to God
Some cops think this job is about power
For me, it's about humility
- Humility? - Submitting yourself to something greater
That's why I'm proud to be a cop
Mr. Michaels testified
that "drinking the cup" referred to your alleged
efforts to lure and cajole him
into bed with Kellie Lawson
when she was 15 years of age Is that true?
Absolutely not
I testified against Michaels at his trial for that crime
What about Mr. Flynn?
Did you lure and cajole him
into a homosexual relationship with a transvestite?
I regret ever working with men like Flynn and Michaels
How... How could I or anyone make them do those things?
It's not my place to judge
but I take responsibility for what I've done
and I can tell you Jason Myers wasn't like them, either
It would disgust him to see that people like that are used to accuse me
His death... it's a tragedy
Not just for his family and our unit, but for this city
that Jason gave his life to protect
Detective Veeder how long have you been a police officer?
- 22 years - And in all your years of service what awards have you received?
I've received the Medal of Honor, the Medal of Valor
and three Mayor's Commendations
- Have you ever been accused of a crime? - No, sir
Have you ever been charged with misconduct of any sort?
- No, sir - How many times have you testified in court?
I've testified at approximately 150 trials
And in all those hundreds of hours of testimony
have you ever been accused of perjury?
No
Detective Veeder did you kill Jason Myers?
No
Detective Flynn testified
quote, "Veeder told Jason 'She's my whore"
'Who are you to turn her down when I give her to you?'"
In what sense was Kellie Lawson your whore?
I never said that
You pimped her to two men in your unit
Objection
Ask a question, Ms. Chase or move on
You manipulated Kellie Lawson
just like you manipulated the men who work for you didn't you, Detective?
They're all your whores aren't they?
Objection, Your Honor
A question Ms. Chase?
The question Detective is do you manipulate the men in your unit to insure their loyalty?
I trust them with my life
Answer the question Do you manipulate the men in your unit?
No
Flynn lied about me because you cornered him with some cheap secret
You destroyed him right in front of us
I'm not the manipulator Ms. Chase
On the one count of murder
we, the jury find the defendant
Not guilty
We lost the police vote
I will put together a statement
But I'm not sure I want a statement
This is my area of expertise, Jim
It's your turn to defer to me
You are going to extend an olive branch
I am not going to apologize
I said an olive branch
What's the difference?
An olive branch is a truce not an apology, trust me
We've got time to fix this It's up to you whether we do
What do I need to do?
Cindy, hi
I came by to see you last night
I'm so sorry we didn't convict Veeder
Sarah used to bring the kids by in the morning
I'd take them to school with her
I miss that
You haven't seen her?
I called, but she hasn't called back
Do you and Amanda want to come over for dinner tonight?
Maybe we could call Sarah together?
Honestly, Annabeth
I feel like you started this whole thing
Cindy, Veeder started this not me
Yeah, but he's not being punished and the rest of us are
It's like this tornado ripped through our neighborhood
It'll never be like it was
Ed, what's up?
We found Kellie Lawson
