1. by two separate
yet equally important groups:
Copy !req
2. the police,
who investigate crime
Copy !req
3. and the district attorneys
who prosecute the offenders.
Copy !req
4. These are their stories.
Copy !req
5. Well...
Copy !req
6. Well, what?
They're late.
Copy !req
7. When you deal with Feds, you
know it's gonna get screwed up.
Copy !req
8. Hey, Roberts,
what's your guy in for?
Copy !req
9. gun running...
Drug smuggling,
Copy !req
10. He's Lebanese.
Copy !req
11. He brings the drugs in,
he takes the guns out.
Copy !req
12. Sometimes it's
the other way around.
Copy !req
13. He's an entrepreneur.
Copy !req
14. Great.
Copy !req
15. How do you know
he's going to sing?
Copy !req
16. We got six months of footwork
hanging on his testimony.
Copy !req
17. We got the D.E.A. to go to bat
with the U.S. Attorney.
Copy !req
18. He can't wait to play canary.
Copy !req
19. Mine's innocent.
Copy !req
20. Yeah. Right.
Copy !req
21. Yeah. Mr. O'Connell says
he's a political prisoner
Copy !req
22. unfairly held without trial.
Copy !req
23. Ours claims he's persecuted
because he's Cuban.
Copy !req
24. The mick says it's
because he's Irish
Copy !req
25. and belongs
to the I.R.A.
Copy !req
26. They should send them back
where they come from.
Copy !req
27. What about
I-talians, Damato?
Copy !req
28. I-talians is different.
Copy !req
29. Gentlemen.
Copy !req
30. Oh, after you, Max.
Copy !req
31. Hey, Roberts...
Copy !req
32. Looks like your entrepreneur
just went into Chapter 11.
Copy !req
33. What the hell
happened here?
Copy !req
34. Captioning sponsored by
NBC/UNIVERSAL
Copy !req
35. from the side.
Copy !req
36. Get a wide shot
of the three of them.
Copy !req
37. Smile, fellas.
Copy !req
38. Who's in charge?
Copy !req
39. I'm senior.
Detective Sergeant Max Greevey.
Copy !req
40. Special Agent Axelrod.
What the hell happened?
Copy !req
41. Three guys shackled together.
Copy !req
42. One of them's dead.
Copy !req
43. Houdini routine.
Copy !req
44. The two other guys
never saw a thing.
Copy !req
45. Just what
I freaking needed today.
Copy !req
46. Let's get you Sherlock Holmeses
down to the Federal building.
Copy !req
47. Whoa!
Copy !req
48. Why's that?
Copy !req
49. Why's that?
Copy !req
50. Because a Federal prisoner
is dead, that's why.
Copy !req
51. And that makes it our case.
Copy !req
52. Doesn't play that way.
Copy !req
53. They signed all three of them
over to us
Copy !req
54. at the Federal Detention Center.
Copy !req
55. Our prisoners, our case.
Copy !req
56. Show him the paperwork.
Copy !req
57. Worthless bag of crap!
Copy !req
58. Six months I put in
on this case! Six months!
Copy !req
59. Look, gentlemen,
all we want to know
Copy !req
60. is who's responsible.
Copy !req
61. I'd say it's either
Montez or O'Connell.
Copy !req
62. I'll find out.
Copy !req
63. Give me ten minutes
alone with these jerks.
Copy !req
64. I'll pound it out
of them.
Copy !req
65. Hey! Roberts, thanks anyway.
Copy !req
66. We'll beat our own prisoners.
Copy !req
67. What I meant was
whose jurisdiction are we in?
Copy !req
68. N.Y.P.D.'S.
Copy !req
69. Fine.
Copy !req
70. You get the stiff.
Copy !req
71. They're back in Federal custody
as of now.
Copy !req
72. Wait a second.
Copy !req
73. I got signed paperwork.
Copy !req
74. I need O'Connell.
Copy !req
75. I got six Westies
upstairs on trial.
Copy !req
76. O'Connell's IRA.
Copy !req
77. Why do you need him
for a case against the Westies?
Copy !req
78. What difference
does it make?
Copy !req
79. He's been subpoenaed.
Copy !req
80. Gentlemen, gentlemen,
I think we need to prioritize.
Copy !req
81. Prioritize, my ass!
Copy !req
82. I'm senior on the scene.
Copy !req
83. It's my homicide.
Copy !req
84. I got a witness to interview.
Copy !req
85. I have an investigation
to start.
Copy !req
86. This is ridiculous.
You do what you want.
Copy !req
87. I'm taking
these Federal prisoners
Copy !req
88. back to the Federal
Detention Center now!
Copy !req
89. You just let the feebs waltz off
with two homicide suspects?
Copy !req
90. What, you think wee should have
had a shoot-out over them?
Copy !req
91. The F.B.I.
has no right
Copy !req
92. to interfere with
a homicide investigation!
Copy !req
93. They are Federal
prisoners, Captain.
Copy !req
94. Signed over to us.
Copy !req
95. They had no jurisdiction.
Copy !req
96. You have any idea
Copy !req
97. what this investigation
is gonna be like now?
Copy !req
98. What's the problem?
Copy !req
99. They're gonna
want to close this.
Copy !req
100. What's the problem?
Copy !req
101. He's never worked a case
Copy !req
102. with the "G" before?
Copy !req
103. They don't cooperate.
Copy !req
104. They think
they're God almighty.
Copy !req
105. A case with Federal prisoners
involved?
Copy !req
106. Every time you even want
to see one of them
Copy !req
107. you got to see the
superintendent to the facility,
Copy !req
108. genuflect going in,
coming out of his office.
Copy !req
109. I want this thing wrapped up
fast, like yesterday.
Copy !req
110. What gives, Montez?
Copy !req
111. You spoke English
just fine last week.
Copy !req
112. No comprende.
Copy !req
113. Yo sabe que muerto...
Copy !req
114. uh, que muerto Mustafa?
Copy !req
115. Tu?
Copy !req
116. No, yo sabe o yo muerto?
Copy !req
117. Tu sabes o tu muertes?
Copy !req
118. Where's the damn interpreter?
Copy !req
119. I think yo means "I."
Copy !req
120. You're saying,
"I killed Mustafa."
Copy !req
121. Then you do it.
Copy !req
122. No, tu.
Copy !req
123. Having trouble?
Copy !req
124. He's in culture shock.
Copy !req
125. Y como esta?
Copy !req
126. No es mi culpa.
Copy !req
127. He says he's not guilty.
Copy !req
128. Of course.
Tell him we believe him.
Copy !req
129. Mi abogado.
Copy !req
130. Porque no esta escuchando.
Copy !req
131. Besame todo el cuerpo.
Copy !req
132. Well..?
Copy !req
133. You don't want to know
Copy !req
134. but basically he's not talking
until his lawyer gets here.
Copy !req
135. Let's try the mick.
Copy !req
136. Sure, we had a couple of Logans
down dingle way.
Copy !req
137. One had the pub,
the other the funeral parlor.
Copy !req
138. That about covers it.
Copy !req
139. O'CONNELL:
Staunch Republicans,
the Logans—
Copy !req
140. they fought for
the Republic of Ireland.
Copy !req
141. Not like your Republicans
in America.
Copy !req
142. About the dead Arab..?
Copy !req
143. There's some Greeveys
in County Mayo.
Copy !req
144. Where's your family from,
Sergeant?
Copy !req
145. Hell's Kitchen.
Copy !req
146. Ah.
Copy !req
147. Well, at least your partner
knows his history.
Copy !req
148. See if you can cover
some recent history, okay, Mike?
Copy !req
149. No?
Copy !req
150. That's what I said, Sergeant.
Copy !req
151. I gave you permission
Copy !req
152. to interview Montez
and O'Connell,
Copy !req
153. not the other prisoners.
Copy !req
154. Let me get this straight.
Copy !req
155. You're telling me
to investigate a homicide
Copy !req
156. without interviewing witnesses?
Copy !req
157. There were only two witnesses,
Montez and O'Connell.
Copy !req
158. Character witnesses
then—
Copy !req
159. guys who might have
heard something.
Copy !req
160. What is this?
What is this?
Copy !req
161. This is non-cooperation,
Sergeant.
Copy !req
162. What the hell is going on?
Copy !req
163. It's a political hand grenade.
Copy !req
164. What do you know
about extradition law?
Copy !req
165. Takes a lot of paperwork.
Copy !req
166. And a lot
of loopholes.
Copy !req
167. O'Connell entered the country
in '85.
Copy !req
168. Legally?
Copy !req
169. No, he walked in from Canada.
Copy !req
170. The British issued a warrant
for terrorism.
Copy !req
171. So the F.B.I. pops him,
the bring him here.
Copy !req
172. So why don't you
put him on a plane.
Copy !req
173. He found the right judge.
Copy !req
174. Ruled that whatever he had done
was not common crime
Copy !req
175. but was related to the I.R.A.'S
political goal
Copy !req
176. of a unified Ireland.
Copy !req
177. A Federal judge said this?
Copy !req
178. Oh, it gets worse.
Copy !req
179. I.N.S. goes to immigration court
Copy !req
180. immigration judge
orders him deported.
Copy !req
181. But he's still here.
Copy !req
182. Because the minute the
deportation order comes down
Copy !req
183. he applies for political asylum.
Copy !req
184. So if he did kill Mustafa..?
Copy !req
185. Off the record?
Copy !req
186. If we have to bring
him to trial
Copy !req
187. or if we need him as
a witness against Montez
Copy !req
188. then he has to stay here.
Copy !req
189. Nobody wants that.
Copy !req
190. Maybe nobody with
a federal paycheck wants that,
Copy !req
191. but me,
I'm just a cop after a killer.
Copy !req
192. All I'm saying is,
is that obviously
Copy !req
193. it's not that
cut-and-dried.
Copy !req
194. You got a Federal judge
who says it's political.
Copy !req
195. You telling me
that you buy
Copy !req
196. that Blarney Stone crap
he's been spewing?
Copy !req
197. You know, it's weird.
Copy !req
198. Two of our grandparents
come from the same town.
Copy !req
199. We both got uncles
as priests.
Copy !req
200. You're both Libras.
Copy !req
201. That's destiny for you.
Copy !req
202. What's the matter
with you?
Copy !req
203. Nothing, I've just
never seen you
Copy !req
204. get so chummy
with a perp before.
Copy !req
205. Perp? Come on, Max.
Copy !req
206. What do you want,
ten to one? 20?
Copy !req
207. You that sure
Montez did it, huh?
Copy !req
208. O'Connell never
killed anybody.
Copy !req
209. No?
No.
Copy !req
210. Then why is he being
held in a Federal facility
Copy !req
211. as a terrorist?
Copy !req
212. Accused terrorist.
It's political.
Copy !req
213. He's never
even been charged.
Copy !req
214. What are you
talking about, Mike?
Copy !req
215. He's been in the can
for five years!
Copy !req
216. That's right.
Copy !req
217. Held without charge,
without trial, without bail.
Copy !req
218. Makes you think, doesn't it?
Copy !req
219. Think what?
He's a bomb thrower.
Copy !req
220. He deserves it.
Copy !req
221. You know how I'd feel
if that were true.
Copy !req
222. O'Connell's never thrown
a bomb in his life.
Copy !req
223. The man's a thinker, he's an
organizer, he's a patriot.
Copy !req
224. For the love of God,
where did you get all this?
Copy !req
225. From my uncle, the priest
Copy !req
226. but then he's always been full
of that Blarney Stone crap, too.
Copy !req
227. I don't give a damn
about the Fed's image problem.
Copy !req
228. I want one of those two birds
in here
Copy !req
229. with or without translator,
but with legal counsel.
Copy !req
230. I want him to fink out
the other guy.
Copy !req
231. It's the Cuban.
Copy !req
232. What is?
Copy !req
233. He's already
put Montez away.
Copy !req
234. Irish intuition.
Copy !req
235. Why don't you
just get his sheet instead?
Copy !req
236. Hey, ten bucks says
it ties him to Mustafa.
Copy !req
237. take your intuition
Maybe you could also
Copy !req
238. over to the deceased's
place of business,
Copy !req
239. you know, check out the vibe,
Copy !req
240. if that's not too much trouble.
Copy !req
241. Mrs. Mustafa?
Copy !req
242. We're sorry about your husband.
Copy !req
243. Why? What has happened?
Copy !req
244. You haven't been notified?
Copy !req
245. About what?
Copy !req
246. Ah, geez...
Copy !req
247. Achmed's dead,
Mrs. Mustafa.
Copy !req
248. We're sorry.
Copy !req
249. Ma'am...
Copy !req
250. Pay up.
Copy !req
251. What's that,
a signed confession?
Copy !req
252. Montez, Savino Joaquin.
Copy !req
253. Born in Cuba, blah, blah, blah.
Copy !req
254. Convictions?
Copy !req
255. Twice— murder two,
both by strangulation.
Copy !req
256. Let me guess—
Copy !req
257. coroner's report on Mr. Mustafa?
Copy !req
258. Crushed larynx,
broken windpipe
Copy !req
259. strangulation.
Copy !req
260. Montez? Five, no make that
six possessions of heroin.
Copy !req
261. Twice with intent to sell.
That's in the free world.
Copy !req
262. God knows what pranks
he pulled in Cuba.
Copy !req
263. Mustafa was a heroin dealer.
Copy !req
264. We establish a relationship
in Leavenworth
Copy !req
265. we got motive.
Copy !req
266. You straighten
out the Feds yet
Copy !req
267. about interviewing
other prisoners?
Copy !req
268. No.
Copy !req
269. We'd like to clean it up
ASAP, Captain.
Copy !req
270. You know, the way you wanted it.
Copy !req
271. We want to move on Montez.
Copy !req
272. That won't be necessary,
gentlemen.
Copy !req
273. What?
Copy !req
274. What's he talking about?
Copy !req
275. According to him,
there is no homicide case.
Copy !req
276. Oh?
Copy !req
277. And why is that?
Copy !req
278. Mustafa's not dead.
Copy !req
279. Don't laugh.
Copy !req
280. The "G" has Elvis
Copy !req
281. at Terminal Island
in California.
Copy !req
282. Oh, a miracle.
Copy !req
283. See, once I saw
the coroner wrote
Copy !req
284. "crushed larynx, D.O.A.,
dead as a doornail"
Copy !req
285. I was convinced.
Copy !req
286. Well, nevertheless,
he's still alive
Copy !req
287. as far as everyone
on his rolodex knows.
Copy !req
288. Why the hell is that important?
Copy !req
289. Because I said it is, Sergeant.
Copy !req
290. National Security.
Copy !req
291. Mustafa had his greasy fingers
in a lot of pies.
Copy !req
292. He was helping us.
Copy !req
293. If certain people
find out he's dead,
Copy !req
294. we're back to square one.
Copy !req
295. Don't worry.
You're already there.
Copy !req
296. We told his wife he was
with Allah yesterday.
Copy !req
297. Cops.
Copy !req
298. Unless you got some other
fairy tales you want to tell us
Copy !req
299. we're going to see Montez
Copy !req
300. because he's convinced
Mustafa's dead.
Copy !req
301. I don't believe it.
Copy !req
302. God almighty, wasn't
anybody watching them?
Copy !req
303. You can't watch anyone
24 hours a day.
Copy !req
304. Son of a bitch.
Copy !req
305. It looks like
Montez checked out
Copy !req
306. but you never
know anymore.
Copy !req
307. What the hell is that
supposed to mean?
Copy !req
308. Nothing.
Copy !req
309. No, really,
what was that crack?
Copy !req
310. No, it's just
that you Feds
Copy !req
311. can bring guys back from
the dead— it's amazing.
Copy !req
312. So, uh, I guess we'll call
it an accidental hanging.
Copy !req
313. I guess we'll call it
what the coroner does
Copy !req
314. when he gets here.
Copy !req
315. Why don't you stick around
Copy !req
316. in case this stiff
comes back to life, too.
Copy !req
317. I still have a homicide
to investigate
Copy !req
318. and I expect you
to start cooperating.
Copy !req
319. Like I told you
before, Sergeant,
Copy !req
320. you're free to
interrogate O'Connell
to your heart's content,
Copy !req
321. but the other inmates
are still off limits.
Copy !req
322. Two prisoners
under your jurisdiction
Copy !req
323. are no longer with us.
Copy !req
324. One, Mustafa, as you're
so fond of reminding me—
Copy !req
325. he was murdered
on your turf.
Copy !req
326. Look.
Copy !req
327. We've each got a job to do.
It's nothing personal.
Copy !req
328. I'm telling you,
you're dancing very close
Copy !req
329. to obstruction of justice.
Copy !req
330. You don't loosen up,
I got no choice.
Copy !req
331. I go straight to the D.A.
Copy !req
332. Look at that groove
on his neck.
Copy !req
333. Ligature marks.
Copy !req
334. From a bed sheet?
Copy !req
335. Not in my lifetime.
Copy !req
336. I'd say rope, since there were
fibers embedded in his neck.
Copy !req
337. So Montez was strangled
Copy !req
338. then hung up
with a bed sheet.
Copy !req
339. Wouldn't jump to any conclusions
before the autop.
Copy !req
340. Did you authorize the guards
to cut the body down?
Copy !req
341. He was laid out
by the time we got here.
Copy !req
342. Mucked up a perfectly
nice crime scene.
Copy !req
343. Don't they teach
these people procedure?
Copy !req
344. There's always some new guy
who hasn't read the rule book.
Copy !req
345. We know he didn't do
a Dutch act
Copy !req
346. so why is he dead?
Copy !req
347. Payback from Mustafa's posse?
Copy !req
348. Or somebody wanted
to shut him up.
Copy !req
349. The Feds fake a suicide?
Copy !req
350. Shelby look like the type
to host necktie parties to you?
Copy !req
351. How about your buddy, O'Connell?
Copy !req
352. What about him?
Copy !req
353. The guy's a political theorist.
Copy !req
354. This is nickel-and-dimes,
junkies and pushers.
Copy !req
355. Come off it, Mike.
Copy !req
356. You forget why O'Connell
was going to court?
Copy !req
357. I grew up
with the Westies.
Copy !req
358. Nice, polite
altar boys.
Copy !req
359. They make the sign of the cross
when they slit your throat.
Copy !req
360. Oh, come on.
Copy !req
361. O'Connell's gonna
have you believing
Copy !req
362. there are no snakes in Ireland.
Copy !req
363. There aren't any.
Copy !req
364. Touche.
Copy !req
365. Okay, first we check the Arab
angle, then we do the mick.
Copy !req
366. "Moved to Beirut."
Copy !req
367. Gee, some people get
all the breaks.
Copy !req
368. Let's check the garbage.
Copy !req
369. Yeah.
Copy !req
370. Oh! Oh!
Copy !req
371. God! How could anyone
eat something
Copy !req
372. that could even get
to smell like that?
Copy !req
373. Bingo.
Copy !req
374. Looks like a break-dancing
chicken wrote this.
Copy !req
375. Thank you, professor.
Copy !req
376. We'll send them
right over.
Copy !req
377. It didn't used to be
this hard, Mike.
Copy !req
378. It used to be a lot simpler...
Copy !req
379. In the old days.
Copy !req
380. In the old days.
Copy !req
381. Hey, Max.
Copy !req
382. They're having a fund-raiser
for O'Connell tonight.
Copy !req
383. Let's check it out.
Copy !req
384. Where?
Copy !req
385. McBride's.
Copy !req
386. McBride's.
Copy !req
387. That's the bad the F.B.I.
popped O'Connell in in '85.
Copy !req
388. Excuse me.
Copy !req
389. Watch your back...
Copy !req
390. and watch your hands.
Copy !req
391. Excuse me.
Copy !req
392. Oh.
Copy !req
393. Something stronger
this time?
Copy !req
394. Just another soda.
Copy !req
395. Haven't seen
you boys before.
Copy !req
396. Just came by to see what all
Copy !req
397. the O'Connell
excitement was about.
Copy !req
398. I'm Sheila.
Copy !req
399. Mike Logan. I'm Max Greevey.
Copy !req
400. Greevey. Would you be
the County Mayo Greeveys
Copy !req
401. by any chance?
Copy !req
402. I'm afraid not.
Copy !req
403. My mother's half Irish, though.
Copy !req
404. At least you won't be hitting
on me with the Derry can.
Copy !req
405. A Derry can?
Copy !req
406. Londonderry relief,
for all the widows and orphans
Copy !req
407. of Catholics taken away
by the British.
Copy !req
408. Oh, for
the love of Mike.
Copy !req
409. Hear, hear.
Copy !req
410. Here's to you, Pat.
Copy !req
411. MAN #2:
God bless you, boy-o.
Copy !req
412. You've made us all proud.
Copy !req
413. Who's the birthday boy?
Looks familiar.
Copy !req
414. I like cops,
but only when they're off-duty.
Copy !req
415. Was it that obvious?
Copy !req
416. Anybody offering you
any undercover assignments?
Copy !req
417. Uh, look...
Copy !req
418. I'm sorry.
Copy !req
419. We didn't mean
to upset you.
Copy !req
420. My husband was a cop.
Copy !req
421. In Belfast.
Copy !req
422. Oh?
Copy !req
423. Somebody shot him one night
Copy !req
424. after an I.R.A. man
had been shot
Copy !req
425. or maybe it was
a British soldier.
Copy !req
426. It was just one of those nights,
and somebody had to die.
Copy !req
427. It's all so bloody stupid.
Copy !req
428. I'm sorry.
Copy !req
429. Are you going after them?
Copy !req
430. I don't know. Maybe.
Copy !req
431. Right now we're
just wondering
Copy !req
432. about this guy, O'Connell.
Copy !req
433. You don't know?
Copy !req
434. The I.R.A. is everywhere.
Copy !req
435. It's in the prisons,
on the streets.
Copy !req
436. Maybe even in your own precinct.
Copy !req
437. The Provos, the Sinn Fein—
Copy !req
438. they're all the same.
Copy !req
439. Bloody thugs.
Copy !req
440. The birthday boy.
Copy !req
441. McCarter.
Copy !req
442. He's a prison guard.
Copy !req
443. A lot of talk about "bricks"
being moved out of Lebanon.
Copy !req
444. So what? We already know
he was into drug smuggling.
Copy !req
445. One of the faxes
talks about a shipment of clay
Copy !req
446. from Libya
to the Netherlands.
Copy !req
447. Libya is a desert.
Copy !req
448. You don't find a lot
of clay in the desert.
Copy !req
449. Plastic explosives?
Copy !req
450. Last month, the Dutch police
arrested three I.R.A. guys
Copy !req
451. in a safe house in Amsterdam.
Copy !req
452. They found 100 pounds
of plastic explosives
Copy !req
453. in the basement.
Copy !req
454. I got one for you, too.
The birthday boy?
Copy !req
455. The one the waitress said
was a prison guard?
Copy !req
456. McCarter.
Copy !req
457. Patrick A. McCarter.
Copy !req
458. He's a Federal prison guard,
and guess what.
Copy !req
459. The report on Montez says he was
the first one at the scene.
Copy !req
460. He's the one
that cut Montez down.
Copy !req
461. That's enough for me.
Copy !req
462. McCarter.
Copy !req
463. Patrick McCarter,
you're under arrest
Copy !req
464. for the murder of Savino Montez.
Copy !req
465. You have the right
to remain silent and refuse
Copy !req
466. to answer questions,
do you understand?
Copy !req
467. Anything you do say
may be used against you
Copy !req
468. in a court of law,
do you understand?
Copy !req
469. You have the right
to an attorney.
Copy !req
470. If you can't afford one,
Copy !req
471. one will be appointed
to you by the court...
Copy !req
472. Well, the kid might have ties
to the I.R.A.
Copy !req
473. but he's a brick wall.
Copy !req
474. He won't talk
to us.
Copy !req
475. won't let him talk.
More like Mallahan
Copy !req
476. Daniel Mallahan?
Copy !req
477. Boy's got a pretty expensive
mouthpiece.
Copy !req
478. Big surprise—
Copy !req
479. friends of Sinn Fein
are footing the bill.
Copy !req
480. He's bought and paid for.
Copy !req
481. Friends of Sinn Fein.
Copy !req
482. That's as subtle
as a Mickey Finn.
Copy !req
483. We're in court
against the I.R.A.
Copy !req
484. If by some miracle we do turn
McCarter, are you sure
Copy !req
485. that he can implicate O'Connell
in Mustafa's murder?
Copy !req
486. Montez was the only witness.
Copy !req
487. O'Connell had
a compelling motive
Copy !req
488. to have him shut up.
Copy !req
489. All right, we'll twist McCarter.
Copy !req
490. Thanks, Max.
Copy !req
491. We may have bitten off
more than we can chew.
Copy !req
492. Mallahan knows the case is thin.
Copy !req
493. Look on the bright side.
Copy !req
494. What bright side?
Copy !req
495. We're not in Boston.
Copy !req
496. McCarter was fired from
the department of sanitation
Copy !req
497. for petty larceny—
no charges filed.
Copy !req
498. Makes for
an ideal candidate
Copy !req
499. for a job in a Federal
detention center.
Copy !req
500. He had help
getting hired.
Copy !req
501. Letter of recommendation
from Liam Kildare.
Copy !req
502. Commissioner Shannon's
assistant?
Copy !req
503. Our Mr. McCarter's
plugged in.
Copy !req
504. Mr. McCarter,
who got you your job
Copy !req
505. in the bureau
of prisons?
Copy !req
506. That information
is not within your purview.
Copy !req
507. Was it your I.R.A. friends?
Who recruited you?
Copy !req
508. My friend's allegiances
are not at issue.
Copy !req
509. His membership in
a terrorist organization is.
Copy !req
510. I'm no terrorist.
I'm a soldier.
Copy !req
511. What he means is, he is
a man of conscience.
Copy !req
512. What he means is he is the
misguided romantic dupe
Copy !req
513. of those who consider
him completely expendable.
Copy !req
514. This interview is over.
Copy !req
515. Sit down, sir.
Copy !req
516. I'm not finished.
Copy !req
517. You were just a
common thief, Patrick.
Copy !req
518. Now you're looking at murder.
Copy !req
519. Counselor, if you have
any relevant questions...
Copy !req
520. You're way beyond the protection
of those who got you into this.
Copy !req
521. You talk to us, we'll offer
you a plea bargain.
Copy !req
522. My client is not looking
for a deal.
Copy !req
523. You don't have a lot of room
to dance, Patrick,
Copy !req
524. no matter what
your lawyer told you.
Copy !req
525. You're 22 years old.
Copy !req
526. Do you really want to spend
the rest of your life in prison?
Copy !req
527. He is not interested.
Copy !req
528. Mr. Mallahan,
I'd like a word with you.
Copy !req
529. If you want
this kid crucified,
Copy !req
530. you're making
all the right moves.
Copy !req
531. Are you questioning
my professional judgment?
Copy !req
532. That depends on who
your client is.
Copy !req
533. Patrick, McCarter,
regardless of who pays my fee.
Copy !req
534. That better be true,
or I'll drag you before
Copy !req
535. the disciplinary committee
of the bar association.
Copy !req
536. And tell them what?
Copy !req
537. That I'm making you work
for your paycheck?
Copy !req
538. Now, listen to me, Counselor.
Copy !req
539. You're not going
to run-and-gun some cheap plea
Copy !req
540. down my client's throat.
Copy !req
541. Your client is
facing a murder rap.
Copy !req
542. The rope we found in his
car matches the marks
on Montez's neck.
Copy !req
543. And the same kind of rope you
find in the prison machine shop.
Copy !req
544. It's all circumstantial.
Copy !req
545. It's not circumstantial when
you have a fiber match
Copy !req
546. and a hair from Montez on the
rope in McCarter's car.
Copy !req
547. Well, I guess we'll have to wait
and see what a jury says.
Copy !req
548. You and I both know
that he was the only guard
Copy !req
549. on the floor for 45 minutes.
Copy !req
550. That's enough to bury him,
and bury him I will,
Copy !req
551. along with you
and your Sinn Fein money.
Copy !req
552. When I present your conduct in
this case before the bar
Copy !req
553. and your clear-cut
conflict of interest,
Copy !req
554. you'll be lucky
to have a license.
Copy !req
555. You, uh...
Copy !req
556. you want to present
some options to my client?
Copy !req
557. Go ahead.
Copy !req
558. You won't get
any argument from me.
Copy !req
559. McCarter says he killed Montez
on orders from O'Connell.
Copy !req
560. Orders?
Copy !req
561. Yeah, O'Connell is
his I.R.A. superior
Copy !req
562. on the chain of command.
Copy !req
563. And McCarter thinks of himself
as a soldier...
Copy !req
564. a loyal member
of a long-standing army
Copy !req
565. that has been under arms in one
form or another since
Copy !req
566. the Battle of the Boyne, and
that was about 300 years ago.
Copy !req
567. You researched this?
Copy !req
568. No, it was spoon-fed to me.
Copy !req
569. My grandmother was Irish.
Copy !req
570. Fahey.
Copy !req
571. She thought it was a holy war.
Copy !req
572. Michael Collins, Robert Emmett.
Copy !req
573. She'd recite those names
like they were saints in heaven.
Copy !req
574. I suppose in their time
they were,
Copy !req
575. but the likes of McCarter
and O'Connell are thugs—
Copy !req
576. they're Nazis with brogues.
Copy !req
577. You're worried that by putting
O'Connell on trial
Copy !req
578. might give him legitimacy,
turn him into a martyr.
Copy !req
579. To a fanatic, a trial's just an
opportunity to win converts.
Copy !req
580. How solid is this case?
Copy !req
581. McCarter says that he'll testify
Copy !req
582. that O'Connell admitted
strangling Mustafa,
Copy !req
583. but that's my problem
Copy !req
584. because it all depends
on the kid's testimony
Copy !req
585. and I'm afraid
he'd go in the tank on me.
Copy !req
586. O'Connell threatened
to have him tooled if he talked.
Copy !req
587. Have him what?
It's the newest weapon
in the I.R.A. arsenal.
Copy !req
588. They kneecap a man with a power
drill, he never walks again.
Copy !req
589. We can protect him.
Copy !req
590. He ever give you any indication
of why O'Connell killed Mustafa?
Copy !req
591. No, and that's another place
we're vulnerable— motive.
Copy !req
592. O'Connell and Mustafa
Copy !req
593. they moved
in a very shadowy world.
Copy !req
594. The faxes that Greevey and Logan
found at Mustafa's,
Copy !req
595. they make a connection,
but it's nothing I could prove.
Copy !req
596. Might know someone who can.
Copy !req
597. Jennie, get me
the British consulate.
Copy !req
598. Adams said you needed
some information
Copy !req
599. on this Mustafa fellow?
Copy !req
600. We're looking for links
to O'Connell.
Copy !req
601. As you know, your F.B.I. has
worked up a whole dossier
Copy !req
602. on I.R.A. dealings
with the Lebanese.
Copy !req
603. More to the point,
with Achmed Mustafa.
Copy !req
604. No, sir, we
didn't know.
Oh?
Copy !req
605. The counter-terrorist division's
Copy !req
606. had him under surveillance
for some time.
Copy !req
607. Mustafa was a conduit
for weapons to the I.R.A.
Copy !req
608. What kind
of weapons?
Copy !req
609. You name it.
He's even suspected of
Copy !req
610. supplying them with
surface-to-air missiles
Copy !req
611. of the same type
that shot down
Copy !req
612. one of our helicopters
a short while ago.
Copy !req
613. The Syrians are involved,
along the way.
Copy !req
614. But your F.B.I.
will have all that.
Copy !req
615. Paul, find out who the head of
Copy !req
616. the anti-terrorist division
in New York is.
Copy !req
617. Oh, that's a chap
named Axelrod.
Copy !req
618. Syrians, I.R.A.,
Lebanese...
Copy !req
619. Red Army, Baader-Meinhof,
Libyans...
Copy !req
620. you poke a lamp
under the sheets
Copy !req
621. and you'll find
strange bedfellows
Copy !req
622. doing some
very nasty things together.
Copy !req
623. Talk about a guy
with his own agenda.
Copy !req
624. Because Washington wants
O'Connell off page one.
Copy !req
625. He's become a political tumor.
Copy !req
626. The man's a suspect
in a homicide.
Copy !req
627. He did a Lebanese drug dealer.
Copy !req
628. An inch and a half
on page eight.
Copy !req
629. What, not enough sound bite
appeal?
Copy !req
630. Mr. Robinette, there are
43 million Irish-Americans
Copy !req
631. in this country,
Copy !req
632. some of whom
wield enormous political weight.
Copy !req
633. So we ignore murder to save
ourselves
Copy !req
634. the international embarrassment
of holding a terrorist
Copy !req
635. without charges?
Copy !req
636. Look, come next week,
Copy !req
637. he's probably going to be
granted political asylum.
Copy !req
638. And then he's going
to be old news.
Copy !req
639. You put him on trial,
and you give him a pulpit.
Copy !req
640. It's a whole new concept—
crime without punishment.
Copy !req
641. What's the matter
with you guys in
the D.A.'s office?
Copy !req
642. Got no peripheral vision?
Can't you see the big picture?
Copy !req
643. We're just not blinded by it.
Copy !req
644. Five years
of unjust imprisonment
Copy !req
645. wiped clean
in under ten minutes.
Copy !req
646. Is that an indication that
a civil suit may be pending?
Copy !req
647. No, there will be no more
legal beagling.
Copy !req
648. I've been given asylum
in a country
Copy !req
649. that truly is
the cradle of liberty.
Copy !req
650. I just want to get on
with my life.
Copy !req
651. The British have petitioned
for your extradition back to
England to face charges.
Copy !req
652. Anything you'd like to say to
the House of Commons?
Copy !req
653. Kiss me rosie Irish bum,
gentlemen.
Copy !req
654. No bitterness toward
Capitol Hill for being
held for five years
Copy !req
655. without any charges
being brought?
Copy !req
656. If there's bitterness,
I can't find it.
Copy !req
657. All I can feel is
a sense of gratitude.
Copy !req
658. The American justice
system may be slow,
Copy !req
659. but at least
it's accurate.
Copy !req
660. This should move it from page
eight to page one.
Copy !req
661. I'm looking forward to staying
here in New York for awhile
Copy !req
662. and working
with this fine...
Counselor,
a word with your client?
Copy !req
663. What about?
Just talk over here.
Copy !req
664. Excuse me, sir, who are you?
Copy !req
665. You're under arrest for
the murder of Achmed Mustafa.
Copy !req
666. You have the right
to remain silent
and refuse
Copy !req
667. to answer questions.
Do you understand?
Copy !req
668. Anything you do say may
be used against you...
Copy !req
669. And so, ladies and gentlemen,
Copy !req
670. what is on trial here
Copy !req
671. is the Constitution
of the United States of America.
Copy !req
672. Mr. O'Connell has been held
Copy !req
673. in the penal system
of the United States
Copy !req
674. for five long years,
ladies and gentlemen,
Copy !req
675. without ever once
having a charge
Copy !req
676. brought against him
until now—
Copy !req
677. until the very day
of his first taste of freedom.
Copy !req
678. And why?
Copy !req
679. Because the British government
is afraid...
Copy !req
680. afraid to have the truth
come out,
Copy !req
681. because, ladies and gentlemen,
Copy !req
682. the life
of a Lebanese heroin pusher
Copy !req
683. is apparently more important
Copy !req
684. than the freedom
of an Irish patriot.
Copy !req
685. ( gavel banging )
I will not tolerate this.
Copy !req
686. One more outburst,
and I'll clear this court.
Copy !req
687. Are you at the end
of your blather, Mr. Reilly?
Copy !req
688. Yes, yes, Your Honor. I am.
Copy !req
689. Good.
Copy !req
690. Mr. Stone?
Copy !req
691. The people call
Patrick McCarter, Your Honor.
Copy !req
692. Raise your right hand,
please.
Copy !req
693. Do you swear to tell the truth,
the whole truth,
Copy !req
694. so help you God?
I do.
Copy !req
695. Please be seated.
Copy !req
696. Please tell the court
your name.
Copy !req
697. Patrick Aloysius McCarter.
Copy !req
698. And you are a resident of...
Copy !req
699. New York City.
Copy !req
700. And your occupation?
Copy !req
701. I'm a prison guard.
Copy !req
702. At the Federal Detention
Center in lower Manhattan,
is that correct?
Copy !req
703. Yes.
Copy !req
704. Mr. McCarter, did you kill
a federal prisoner
Copy !req
705. named Savino Montez?
Copy !req
706. Yes.
Copy !req
707. Why?
Copy !req
708. I was ordered to.
Copy !req
709. By whom?
Copy !req
710. Answer the question,
Mr. McCarter.
Copy !req
711. The organization.
Copy !req
712. They told me to
shut the Cuban's gob
Copy !req
713. before he talked about O'Connell
killing the Arab.
Copy !req
714. Which organization?
Copy !req
715. The provisional wing
of the Irish Republican Army.
Copy !req
716. Now, did Mr. O'Connell
have knowledge of these orders?
Copy !req
717. Objection, Your Honor.
Copy !req
718. Hearsay.
Copy !req
719. Your Honor, I believe the
witness had direct contact
Copy !req
720. with the accused.
Copy !req
721. Objection overruled.
Copy !req
722. Answer the question,
Mr. McCarter.
Copy !req
723. Yes, yes, he did.
Copy !req
724. He told me I was performing
an act of patriotism.
Copy !req
725. And did Mr. O'Connell
personally tell you
Copy !req
726. that he had killed
Achmed Mustafa?
Copy !req
727. Yes, sir, he most certainly did.
Copy !req
728. He said that he had executed
an enemy of the Irish people.
Copy !req
729. No further questions,
Your Honor.
Copy !req
730. I have very few questions
to ask of this quisling.
Copy !req
731. Objection, Your Honor.
Characterization.
Copy !req
732. Sustained.
Copy !req
733. Mr. McCarter,
you admit to the murder
Copy !req
734. of one Savino Montez
in cold blood.
Copy !req
735. Is that correct?
Copy !req
736. Yes.
Copy !req
737. You've been allowed
to enter a plea of guilty
Copy !req
738. to second-degree
manslaughter
Copy !req
739. for that heinous crime
Copy !req
740. in exchange for
your uncorroborated testimony
Copy !req
741. against the defendant.
Is that not true, yes or no?
Copy !req
742. Yes, sir.
Copy !req
743. I have no further questions.
Copy !req
744. Mr. Axelrod's testimony
goes to the very heart
Copy !req
745. of O'Connell's motive
for killing Mustafa.
Copy !req
746. Mr. Stone doesn't get it.
Copy !req
747. You put me on the stand,
O'Connell's lawyers
Copy !req
748. will cross-examine my whole
operation into the ground.
Copy !req
749. The people's interest
can be served
Copy !req
750. without jeopardizing legitimate
areas of national security.
Copy !req
751. That's cold comfort, Mr. Stone.
Copy !req
752. I've got breathing assets
to protect.
Copy !req
753. And I've got a murder
to prosecute.
Copy !req
754. The murder of
an A-rab dope peddler,
Copy !req
755. for God's sake!
An A-rab dope
peddler?
Copy !req
756. You went to a lot of trouble
to protect Mustafa.
Copy !req
757. Now you're gonna let his
executioner walk,
Copy !req
758. all because
of political expediency?
Copy !req
759. I don't know how that sits with
you, but me, that's immoral.
Copy !req
760. Oh, spare me that sanctimonious
bull, Counselor!
Copy !req
761. I live in the real world.
Copy !req
762. So do I, sir.
Copy !req
763. I know my way around politics.
Copy !req
764. Mr. Axelrod, lay out for me
Copy !req
765. how this connection between the
I.R.A. and Mustafa worked.
Copy !req
766. The Lebanese grow opium
in the Bakaa Valley.
Copy !req
767. They sell it to the Syrians,
who refine it into heroin
Copy !req
768. and sell it on the open market.
Copy !req
769. The Syrians use those profits
to fund a variety
Copy !req
770. of terrorist groups,
that's including the I.R.A.
Copy !req
771. As long as Mr. Stone
confines his questions
Copy !req
772. to the specifics
of the I.R.A. connection,
Copy !req
773. I can't see
how national security
Copy !req
774. is compromised.
Copy !req
775. In other words, Mr. Axelrod,
Copy !req
776. the I.R.A. buys weapons
with Syrian drug money?
Copy !req
777. That's right.
Copy !req
778. And how does Mr. Achmed Mustafa
fit into the scheme of things?
Copy !req
779. He was a cutout.
Copy !req
780. A cutout?
Copy !req
781. A middleman.
Copy !req
782. The Syrians used him
to sell drugs.
Copy !req
783. The I.R.A. used him
to buy weapons.
Copy !req
784. Two months ago,
Mustafa screwed the I.R.A.
Copy !req
785. on a major deal—
Copy !req
786. he shortchanged them
to the tune of about $800,000.
Copy !req
787. And?
Copy !req
788. The I.R.A. high
command put out
a hit on Mustafa.
Copy !req
789. Looks like
somebody carried out the orders.
Copy !req
790. Objection, Your Honor.
Copy !req
791. Supposition.
Copy !req
792. Sustained.
Copy !req
793. No further questions,
Your Honor.
Copy !req
794. Fascinating,
Agent Axelrod,
Copy !req
795. absolutely fascinating.
Copy !req
796. Now would you mind
telling this court
Copy !req
797. exactly what that has to do
with Mr. O'Connell
Copy !req
798. who, as we all know,
was held without trial,
Copy !req
799. without ever once being charged
with a crime
Copy !req
800. for five long years?
Copy !req
801. The defendant
is a member
Copy !req
802. of the Irish
Republican Army.
Copy !req
803. And the last time I looked,
that was not a crime
Copy !req
804. under federal
or New York State law.
Copy !req
805. Can you cite
any criminal statute
Copy !req
806. that Mr. O'Connell has violated
by his membership in the I.R.A.?
Copy !req
807. Objection, Your Honor.
Draws a conclusion of law.
Copy !req
808. Sustained.
Copy !req
809. No further questions,
Your Honor.
Copy !req
810. My membership in the Sinn Fein
is a matter of public record.
Copy !req
811. It is the legal, political wing
of the I.R.A.
Copy !req
812. The non-violent wing,
is that right?
Copy !req
813. That's right.
Copy !req
814. We're not a bunch
of killers,
Copy !req
815. despite what
the British press says.
Copy !req
816. Have you had
any personal dealings
Copy !req
817. with the late Mr. Mustafa?
Copy !req
818. No, I have not.
Copy !req
819. Any business?
Copy !req
820. None, and for the record,
I might say
Copy !req
821. I abhor the drug dealing
that the man was engaged in—
Copy !req
822. I consider it anti-Christian
and anti-life.
Copy !req
823. Yet we've heard testimony
here linking the I.R.A.
Copy !req
824. to Syrian drug money
and Mr. Mustafa.
Copy !req
825. I don't know
anything about it.
Copy !req
826. I have nothing to do
with the Provos.
Copy !req
827. Ah, the Provos.
That would be
Copy !req
828. the provisional
or military wing of the I.R.A.?
Copy !req
829. Yes. They conduct their business
in their own way.
Copy !req
830. I don't condone it,
but I understand it.
Copy !req
831. As I've said,
we're in a war.
Copy !req
832. Sometimes, one has to make pacts
with the devil.
Copy !req
833. And in this war
Copy !req
834. you yourself have
never personally engaged
Copy !req
835. in any violent act.
Copy !req
836. Is that correct?
Copy !req
837. That's so.
Copy !req
838. I've never even
thrown a punch.
Copy !req
839. Thank you very much,
Mr. O'Connell.
Copy !req
840. No further questions,
Your Honor.
Copy !req
841. I must say, to a civilian,
it looks rather like
Copy !req
842. you're getting your ears boxed
by Mr. Reilly.
Copy !req
843. I didn't see you
in court.
Copy !req
844. One learns to be invisible
when one wishes,
Copy !req
845. and deprecating.
Copy !req
846. About what?
Copy !req
847. The value of one's own advice.
Copy !req
848. Go ahead,
Mr. Fenwick.
Well, correct me if I'm wrong,
Copy !req
849. but under your rules
of cross-examination
Copy !req
850. aren't you allowed
to pounce
Copy !req
851. on something offered as fact
under direct examination?
Copy !req
852. Such as?
Copy !req
853. Such as a witness's assertion
Copy !req
854. that he's never committed
a violent act.
Why? What have you got?
Copy !req
855. Mr. O'Connell belongs in
jail— your jail, our jail,
it doesn't matter which.
Copy !req
856. As long as he's behind bars.
He must also be exposed
Copy !req
857. for what he really is—
a bloodthirsty terrorist.
Copy !req
858. I don't need a
speech, Mr. Fenwick.
Copy !req
859. Have you got something
I can use?
Copy !req
860. We have a way for you
Copy !req
861. to discredit
O'Connell's contention
Copy !req
862. that he's nonviolent.
Copy !req
863. A way? What is that
supposed to mean?
Copy !req
864. We could supply
a sworn affidavit.
Copy !req
865. You bastard. You have
a witness, don't you?
Copy !req
866. As I said, we could
supply an affidavit.
Copy !req
867. I'm fed up with this spook crap.
If you have a witness
Copy !req
868. you put him on the Concorde
and you get him in court
Copy !req
869. here tomorrow, or as God is my
witness, I'll subpoena you.
Copy !req
870. She'll be here in the morning.
Copy !req
871. You consider yourself
a Christian, Mr. O'Connell?
Copy !req
872. Most certainly.
Copy !req
873. Yet the credo
of the Irish Republican Army
Copy !req
874. seems more along the lines
of "an eye for an eye"
Copy !req
875. as versus
"turn the other cheek."
Copy !req
876. Wouldn't you agree?
Copy !req
877. Is the I.R.A. on trial here?
Copy !req
878. That depends on you, sir.
Copy !req
879. I have declared my membership
in the Sinn Fein.
Copy !req
880. Yes, you have.
Copy !req
881. And what does the political wing
of the army think
Copy !req
882. when the other wing blows up
a busload of school children?
Copy !req
883. Objection.
Copy !req
884. We're going far afield here.
Copy !req
885. This has relevance
as to character, Your Honor.
Copy !req
886. Answer the question.
Copy !req
887. The organization
has always given ample warning
Copy !req
888. before a device is activated,
Copy !req
889. but there's always the risk
Copy !req
890. of human error.
Copy !req
891. Human error.
Copy !req
892. You have testified
under oath
Copy !req
893. that you have never committed
a violent act.
Copy !req
894. Never in my life.
Copy !req
895. Never?
Copy !req
896. Never.
Copy !req
897. No more questions,
Your Honor.
Copy !req
898. You may step down,
Mr. O'Connell.
Copy !req
899. May I ask you a question, sir?
Copy !req
900. How, with the map of Donegal
on your mug, did you ever end up
Copy !req
901. with a name
like Stone?
Copy !req
902. Happenstance, sir.
Copy !req
903. Same way you ended up
Copy !req
904. with the name of a real
Irish patriot.
Copy !req
905. You have any other questions,
Mr. O'Connell?
Copy !req
906. You may step down,
Mr. O'Connell.
Copy !req
907. Your Honor,
the accused has stated
Copy !req
908. in both direct and
cross-examination
Copy !req
909. that he has never committed
a violent act...
Copy !req
910. that he is a man
of conscience...
Copy !req
911. a prisoner
because of politics.
Copy !req
912. In view of these statements
Copy !req
913. the state would like to call
an additional witness.
Copy !req
914. Objection.
Copy !req
915. The prosecution has rested,
Your Honor.
Copy !req
916. Of his own volition,
Copy !req
917. Mr. O'Connell
has made statements
Copy !req
918. that call for rebuttal, sir.
Copy !req
919. Overruled.
Copy !req
920. Call your witness, Mr. Stone.
Copy !req
921. Thank you, Your Honor.
Copy !req
922. The people call
Bridget McDiarmid.
Copy !req
923. Mrs. McDiarmid,
are you married?
Copy !req
924. I was.
Copy !req
925. Do you have children?
Copy !req
926. I had two.
Copy !req
927. What happened
to your husband
Copy !req
928. and your children?
Copy !req
929. That man murdered them.
Copy !req
930. Objection,
Your Honor.
Copy !req
931. Absolutely irrelevant.
Copy !req
932. Rebutting
the defendant's sworn testimony
Copy !req
933. is relevant as to character,
Your Honor.
Copy !req
934. Overruled.
Proceed, Mr. Stone.
Copy !req
935. Mrs. McDiarmid,
describe in your own words
Copy !req
936. the events
of May 6, 1981.
Copy !req
937. John...
Copy !req
938. my husband and I
were on High Street, Kensington
Copy !req
939. on our way to the cinema
with Sheila and Tommy.
Copy !req
940. Your children?
Copy !req
941. Yes.
Copy !req
942. We were passing a candy store.
Copy !req
943. I remember because
the children wanted to stop.
Copy !req
944. My husband saw a man
tying his shoe
Copy !req
945. kneeling on the pavement.
Copy !req
946. That man...
Copy !req
947. When he was done,
he got up and hurried away
Copy !req
948. but he'd left his satchel
on the curb
Copy !req
949. next to the police van.
Copy !req
950. Would you describe
the satchel?
Copy !req
951. Come on, Your Honor...
Copy !req
952. Please continue, Mrs. McDiarmid.
Copy !req
953. It was, uh,
it was black.
Copy !req
954. Leather.
Copy !req
955. With a grip
Copy !req
956. like any businessman's
in the city.
Copy !req
957. Thank you.
Copy !req
958. Now tell us
what happened next.
Copy !req
959. My husband called to the man.
Copy !req
960. You know...
Copy !req
961. "Oy, mate,
you forgot your satchel."
Copy !req
962. And... then he...
Copy !req
963. he picked up the case
and started after him and...
Copy !req
964. And...?
Copy !req
965. And he was blown to bits,
and Sheila,
Copy !req
966. and Tommy,
and half the street...
Copy !req
967. There was nothing but a shower
of glass and blood.
Copy !req
968. Mrs. McDiarmid,
the man with the satchel—
Copy !req
969. are you absolutely positive,
Copy !req
970. without a question
of a doubt
Copy !req
971. that that man was Ian
O'Connell, the defendant?
Copy !req
972. You hardly forget
the face of the man
Copy !req
973. who slaughtered
your entire family.
Copy !req
974. Take a good look.
Copy !req
975. There is your human error.
Copy !req
976. And Mr. O'Connell's sentence
of 25 years to life
Copy !req
977. is a fitting conclusion
to this case.
Copy !req
978. This prosecution shows the value
and necessity
Copy !req
979. of inter-agency cooperation
on a local, state, federal
Copy !req
980. and international level.
Copy !req
981. These men arrayed behind me
Copy !req
982. showed powerful, personal,
professional bonds
Copy !req
983. to bring an international
terrorist to justice.
Copy !req
984. Thank you very much.
Copy !req
