[00:09]	There’s another one,
[00:11]	down by the spa.
[00:52]	You asked me how to get ahead at the firm.
[00:55]	That’s how you do it.
[00:56]	What about merit? W-What about hard work?
[01:01]	Let me explain something to you.
[01:04]	For you to rise in the ranks,
[01:05]	someone has to make room for you.
[01:07]	They have to give up something,
[01:08]	maybe a raise or part of a bonus.
[01:13]	Now why is someone going to be giving up something
[01:15]	unless they get something?
[01:22]	Geez. It’s behind you, corner of the bar.
[02:00]	January 5th, 940 p.m.
[02:04]	Postmortem examination.
[02:05]	Negative. Internal trunk exploration
[02:09]	Negative.
[02:11]	Forensic evidence discovered None.
[02:17]	How is that possible?
[02:19]	Excuse me?
[02:21]	This man’s killed four women in a year and a half.
[02:23]	How is it he can hide in women’s bathrooms,
[02:26]	chloroform his victims, undress them,
[02:28]	undress himself, have sex with them,
[02:30]	strangle them to death,
[02:32]	and still not leave one bit of forensic evidence?
[02:34]	Not one drop of semen? Not one fleck of skin?
[02:37]	Listen, I know you’re new here, but, Dr…?
[02:39]	Martin. Julia Martin.
[02:41]	We’re talking public bathrooms.
[02:43]	They’re a convention center of forensic evidence.
[02:45]	The victims’ bodies, that’s another story.
[02:47]	That’s how we’ll get him.
[02:53]	Dr. Martin, you’re still here?
[02:55]	I’d like to take another look at Emily Baker’s body.
[02:57]	Kind of late. Everyone’s gone.
[03:00]	That’s okay. I’ll be fine.
[03:02]	I’ll put everything back the way I found it.
[03:09]	We’re obviously thrilled that this afternoon,
[03:11]	a jury of his peers convicted John Malford,
[03:13]	otherwise known as the “Bathroom Stall Butcher,”
[03:16]	for the murder of young Emily Baker.
[03:18]	Special thanks to the New York City Medical Examiner’s Office,
[03:21]	in particular to Julia Martin,
[03:24]	whose tireless work led to the discovery of the pivotal piece
[03:27]	of evidence against John Malford.
[03:32]	Hi. Welcome to Billy’s.
[03:36]	If you’re gonna be a successful attorney in Manhattan,
[03:39]	this is a place you need to know about.
[03:41]	I didn’t even know there was a Billy’s.
[03:43]	Well, consider tonight as a part of your legal education.Thanks.
[03:48]	As a matter of fact, FDR used to settle cases
[03:51]	at that table right there
[03:52]	in the back. I don’t care about all that.
[03:54]	Show me where the Benny Colón booth is.
[03:56]	No, this ain’t Dunkin’ Donuts.
[03:58]	Why don’t you find us a table.
[04:00]	I’ll grab us some drinks.
[04:03]	Benjamin Colón.
[04:05]	Stella!
[04:06]	And Ryan.
[04:08]	Wow…
[04:10]	What is the occasion?
[04:11]	You two look like a pair of breathalyzer tests
[04:13]	waiting to happen.
[04:14]	Well, truth is I have a pretty good shot
[04:16]	at getting a client out of prison.
[04:18]	Guy was put away for life, so…
[04:20]	So what’d you do? You bake him a cake with a hacksaw in it?
[04:26]	One better.
[04:27]	I discovered the evidence that got him convicted
[04:29]	may have been tampered with.
[04:31]	Seriously? Yeah.
[04:32]	By, the police, or…?
[04:34]	Medical Examiner’s Office.
[04:35]	Yeah. I petitioned to have
[04:37]	a client’s DNA evidence retested
[04:40]	and it came back… no match, not even close.
[04:43]	Well, who’s the medical examiner?
[04:45]	You know Julia Martin?
[04:47]	No, no, no, no. That must be a mistake.
[04:50]	She was picked up this morning.
[04:52]	D.A.’s office thinks it was intentional.
[04:54]	Who is your client?
[04:56]	Remember the “Bathroom Stall Butcher,” John Malford?
[05:00]	I hate trolling for cases.
[05:03]	I like to be asked.
[05:05]	I like to be the one who can say no.
[05:07]	We are not trolling. We are offering our services.
[05:10]	And trust me, so is every other A-list criminal firm in town.
[05:14]	I mean, this is Julia Martin.
[05:16]	Chief Medical Examiner for the City of New York.
[05:19]	These are the kinds of cases that get the town talking.
[05:22]	Plus, I know her. There’s no way she’d tamper with evidence.
[05:26]	Well, obviously the D.A. doesn’t agree with you
[05:28]	or he wouldn’t have arrested her.
[05:29]	Plus, I know she has a big title,
[05:31]	but at the end of the day she’s just a civil servant.
[05:34]	What are you trying to say?
[05:36]	Well, is this another pro bono situation?
[05:38]	Because, frankly, I’ve become such a pro at bono,
[05:41]	I’m getting ready to start my own Irish rock band.
[05:47]	You wake up in the morning and you go over in your head
[05:50]	all those hundreds of things that you have to do this week.
[05:53]	It just doesn’t occur to you that you might get arrested.
[05:58]	You might spend your first night in jail.
[06:03]	I’m the Chief Medical Examiner for the City of New York.
[06:06]	We want to help you, Julia.
[06:08]	You know I can’t afford to pay top-shelf guys like you.
[06:11]	We’ll be fine.
[06:12]	Will I be?
[06:14]	I also can’t afford for you to do a half-assed job
[06:17]	because you’re just in it for the free press.
[06:20]	Keep in mind the best press for everyone
[06:22]	is about your ultimate acquittal.
[06:24]	You keep that in mind.
[06:28]	All right then, I guess it’s the two of you.
[06:33]	Lucky us.
[06:34]	So here’s what I know. Six years ago,
[06:37]	when I found that hair in the back of a woman’s throat,
[06:39]	it was a perfect match to John Malford’s hair, perfect.
[06:43]	100%. I still have the evidence that says so,
[06:47]	so I’m not clear exactly why we’re here.
[06:51]	The problem is Malford’s attorney
[06:52]	was running out of appeals,
[06:54]	so he decided to throw a Hail Mary
[06:57]	and petitioned for a new analysis of the hair,
[07:00]	an outside analysis of the hair.
[07:03]	And when an outside lab tested it, it came back negative.
[07:06]	And after they popped their champagne,
[07:08]	they sent it to three more labs, and it also came back negative.
[07:11]	It didn’t match Malford’s hair at all.
[07:13]	That’s not plausible.
[07:15]	Someone switched the hairs, or they tested the wrong hair.
[07:19]	Julia, it’s completely plausible.
[07:21]	You don’t have to agree with it, but it’s certainly plausible.
[07:24]	No. You’re wrong. It isn’t.
[07:27]	There’s no circumstance under which I would ever
[07:29]	tamper with evidence in any case.
[07:32]	Everyone knows this about me.
[07:33]	No. Everyone does not.
[07:36]	Think about it.
[07:39]	You performed the examination sometime after midnight.
[07:42]	You were alone in the autopsy room,
[07:44]	and lack of plausibility is not the argument
[07:46]	that’s gonna win the case for you.
[07:48]	Okay. You know that it was a pubic hair.
[07:51]	Right? It was a man’s pubic hair.
[07:53]	I found it in the deepest recesses of her esophagus.
[07:57]	So let’s say that I am going to plant a hair.
[08:01]	Where would I have gotten a male pubic hair from?
[08:04]	Come on. Those can’t be that hard to come by in the morgue.
[08:07]	Is it possible you made a mistake?
[08:09]	Excuse me? I mean, maybe
[08:11]	you thought you found evidence
[08:13]	that was relevant to the case, but it wasn’t.
[08:15]	Emily might’ve
[08:17]	indulged in oral sex with someone else,
[08:20]	consensual contact. You did an autopsy.
[08:23]	You found this hair. It was a mistake.
[08:26]	No, that’s not possible. I ran every test that there was.
[08:30]	I ran every test myself. That was his hair.
[08:32]	Keep in mind,
[08:34]	if it was truly a mistake,
[08:36]	then there is no criminal intent.
[08:38]	If there is no criminal intent, then there’s no crime.
[08:42]	Mistakes. Everybody makes them.
[08:47]	So you’re telling me, if I say that I made a mistake,
[08:51]	the charges might be withdrawn?
[08:52]	Well, it’s certainly something I’d like to take to the D.A.
[08:55]	I can’t imagine that they would want to go forward
[08:57]	with this trial.
[09:01]	I can’t.You can’t what?
[09:03]	I can’t say that
[09:05]	because I don’t make mistakes,
[09:07]	not when it comes to forensic science.
[09:09]	Does that change anything for the two of you?
[09:17]	Just makes the job harder, but we didn’t take up the offer
[09:21]	because we thought it was gonna be easy.
[09:23]	We told you we wanted to defend you, and we mean it.
[09:29]	So what’s the plan?
[09:31]	Well, to get you out on bail, for starters.
[09:33]	I’ll talk to the D.A. in the morning, get a lay
[09:35]	of the land and see what they think they have on you.
[09:37]	Dr. Martin.
[09:40]	Julia.
[09:47]	Thank you.
[09:50]	Did you say… Thank you.
[09:54]	You’re welcome.
[10:07]	The truth is you know she couldn’t have done this.
[10:09]	She’d rather cut off her own arm than give you a false report.
[10:12]	And yet, she did.
[10:13]	You think I’m looking to take down a medical examiner?
[10:16]	We work with them every day.
[10:18]	I’ve had these results checked and rechecked
[10:20]	with four different labs. She screwed up,
[10:22]	which makes all of us look bad.
[10:24]	Have you actually considered the repercussions of this?
[10:26]	You convict the Chief.
[10:27]	Medical Examiner for the City of New York,
[10:29]	and you are handing a “get out of jail free” card
[10:31]	to everyone you’ve ever put behind bars.
[10:33]	You will have a mile-long line of attorneys out your door
[10:37]	claiming that their clients were falsely convicted.
[10:38]	Is that what you want?
[10:42]	Your discovery packet.
[10:44]	Assuming you’re still gonna want the case
[10:45]	once you see what’s in there.
[10:47]	Okay, what’s in there?
[10:48]	Julia’s first examination of Emily Baker’s corpse,
[10:52]	she came up with nothing.
[10:54]	Okay, so she found the evidence the second time through.
[10:57]	And that’s fine,
[10:58]	except she completely deleted the first report.
[11:01]	The one where she came up empty,
[11:02]	just plucked it out of the system like it never happened.
[11:06]	That’s a big no-no.
[11:07]	Okay.
[11:09]	You know it’s a breach of protocol to delete any reports.
[11:12]	Even ones that are later replaced by updated results,
[11:14]	and you know why.
[11:16]	Because it can be construed as consciousness of guilt.
[11:22]	Julia’s the best there is.
[11:24]	Do you think she’d accidentally forget protocol?
[11:27]	She couldn’t find any evidence on the dead girl,
[11:30]	she decided to take matters into her own hands
[11:32]	and create some.
[11:38]	Here’s the bail agreement.
[11:40]	Is she on her way? Already here.
[11:42]	She and Benny are waiting in your office.
[11:44]	Assistant District Attorney Williams is not your friend.
[11:48]	I never said that he was.
[11:50]	He’s claiming you destroyed an official autopsy report.
[11:54]	Did you write an official report stating that you didn’t find
[11:57]	any physical evidence after your examination of Emily Baker
[12:00]	and then delete that report from the official citywide records?
[12:03]	Yes.
[12:05]	It was…
[12:07]	years ago. I mean…
[12:08]	You have to know how bad that’s gonna look to a jury.
[12:11]	That first report was useless.
[12:12]	It only said that I didn’t find anything.
[12:15]	Yes, but in a court of law,
[12:16]	it’s going to look like a prior inconsistent statement.
[12:20]	You weren’t supposed to delete it.
[12:22]	You were supposed to keep it and turn it over in discovery.
[12:26]	No, I wasn’t gonna do that.
[12:27]	Malford’s lawyers would’ve just used it
[12:29]	to-to call in to question the evidence that I did find.
[12:33]	I know how these people operate.
[12:35]	Julia, that first report is still evidence.
[12:39]	You can’t just destroy evidence
[12:41]	because it doesn’t suit your needs.
[12:43]	Okay, technically, that first report was about an absence
[12:46]	of evidence, which isn’t really evidence.
[12:49]	Okay, all right.
[12:51]	The bottom line is, and-and I know
[12:53]	you couldn’t see the future from where you were standing,
[12:56]	you didn’t do yourself any favors.
[12:58]	The D.A.’s office is gonna say that you intentionally deleted
[13:01]	that report to make it easier for you
[13:04]	to intentionally plant the evidence.
[13:06]	But that isn’t what actually happened.
[13:07]	Even if it looks like that’s what happened.
[13:10]	Either you made a mistake,
[13:12]	or someone, quite possibly you, is guilty of malfeasance.
[13:15]	Well, Danny’s already looking into malfeasance.
[13:18]	She’s trying to find anyone with the means and motive
[13:21]	to have switched out the hairs.
[13:23]	Which in the meantime leaves us with Mistake.
[13:26]	As I’ve already explained to you,
[13:28]	I don’t make those kinds of mistakes.
[13:31]	Well, then someone else did.
[13:34]	In either event, we need to follow chain of custody.
[13:36]	I need to know everyone who had access to that hair.
[13:40]	Julia, can you talk to my investigator,
[13:42]	talk to her about how evidence is catalogued and stored,
[13:45]	who had access, how they get access?
[13:47]	Of course.Excellent.
[13:49]	Well, then, Mr. Colón and I will see you in court
[13:53]	later this afternoon.
[13:56]	Everything all right?
[13:58]	I guess.
[14:00]	I just realized I don’t know where to go.
[14:03]	And what to do until court.
[14:06]	You know, my first instinct is to rush back to the morgue
[14:09]	and then I remembered that I can’t.
[14:19]	Not to worry.
[14:23]	It is gonna be tough to find jurors
[14:25]	who aren’t put off by our client.
[14:28]	Maybe we should look for people who only see the best in others.
[14:32]	Actually, I was thinking just the opposite.
[14:36]	What? People who only see the worst?
[14:39]	You ever heard of Hanlon’s razor?
[14:41]	No.
[14:42]	“Never attribute to malice
[14:43]	that which is adequately explained by stupidity.”
[14:46]	We need people who will look at this situation.
[14:49]	Julia’s gotten into and think, “This isn’t some big conspiracy.
[14:53]	This is probably just someone’s stupid mistake.”
[14:56]	Good afternoon.
[14:58]	So let’s say you send an e-mail to your boss
[15:02]	asking him for time off.
[15:03]	A day goes by and he doesn’t respond.
[15:06]	What do you make of that?
[15:08]	He’s busy.
[15:09]	I like her. Tell me why I shouldn’t.
[15:11]	Jennifer Thomas, single mom,
[15:13]	43 years old, two kids and you are going to hate this
[15:17]	She works at an insurance company as a claims manager.
[15:23]	Can I pick ’em or can I pick ’em?
[15:25]	Probably spends her days looking at inflated insurance claims.
[15:28]	She’s the very definition of what we don’t want.
[15:31]	We’d like to thank and excuse this juror, Your Honor.
[15:35]	Personally?
[15:37]	I hate it when people don’t respond to my e-mails.
[15:40]	Why is that?
[15:41]	Well, they’re trying to tell me that I don’t matter.
[15:46]	I guess I figured he didn’t get the e-mail,
[15:48]	or maybe he deleted it by accident.
[15:50]	Because anyone can make an honest mistake, right?
[15:53]	Sure.
[15:57]	This juror’s acceptable to the defense, Your Honor.
[15:59]	Then, ladies and gentlemen, we have our jury.
[16:03]	Trial will commence tomorrow morning.
[16:05]	Court is adjourned.
[16:08]	This thing that you’re doing, it’s not gonna work.
[16:10]	I didn’t make a mistake. I don’t make mistakes.
[16:13]	You’re making one now.
[16:16]	So you were the lab tech on the Malford autopsies?
[16:18]	It made my career. Julia’s, too.
[16:20]	I hear she’s a tough boss.
[16:22]	She’s a little uptight.
[16:24]	But honestly, that’s what you need around here.
[16:26]	And who handled the evidence
[16:28]	besides Julia?
[16:29]	No one.
[16:30]	Really?
[16:32]	Julia insisted on doing it all herself.
[16:35]	All of it?
[16:37]	She was certified to test DNA?
[16:39]	She’s kind of a control freak.
[16:42]	So she put the hair in the bag, tested it, sealed it,
[16:46]	signed it into the storage locker all by herself?
[16:49]	Dr. Henson,
[16:51]	you were the defendant’s supervisor
[16:53]	during the Malford investigation.
[16:55]	There was a team of us working on it,
[16:58]	looking for something of forensic value.
[17:00]	And you didn’t find anything, did you?
[17:02]	No.
[17:04]	But then, something happened.
[17:06]	Dr. Martin stayed on after we completed the autopsy.
[17:10]	A few hours later, she notified me,
[17:13]	said she found a hair.
[17:15]	We were all stunned.
[17:17]	Why?
[17:18]	Well, we had searched every inch of the victim’s body.
[17:21]	But you were pleased. Of course.
[17:23]	We all wanted to put an end
[17:25]	to this horrible string of sexual attacks and murders.
[17:28]	So you were proud of Dr. Martin?
[17:31]	I was proud of our unit.
[17:35]	I sense some hesitation on your behalf
[17:38]	with regard to Dr. Martin.
[17:40]	She has always been very diligent.
[17:43]	Very determined.
[17:44]	But frankly, she was very hard on people.
[17:49]	She could be quite arrogant.
[17:53]	Thank you.
[17:55]	Nothing further.
[18:01]	Good morning, Dr. Henson.
[18:03]	I just need you
[18:05]	to clear something up.
[18:07]	You know, in the whole time that you ran
[18:09]	the medical examiner’s office, you never once did complain
[18:13]	about my client’s job performance, did you?
[18:17]	Not in any performance review,
[18:19]	not even casually, in a face-to-face with her, say,
[18:22]	in your office?
[18:24]	No.
[18:25]	And isn’t it true that she replaced you?
[18:27]	That she went from being your subordinate to your supervisor?
[18:30]	That’s not how I would describe it.
[18:32]	Well, how would you describe it?
[18:35]	I mean, one day, she’s working for you,
[18:39]	and the next day, she’s your boss.
[18:42]	It stands to reason that you probably harbor
[18:45]	some resentment towards Dr. Martin, wouldn’t you say?
[18:47]	Objection.
[18:48]	Ask another question.
[18:50]	I mean, she fired you.
[18:54]	Didn’t she?
[18:56]	Objection.
[18:57]	What’s the relevance?
[18:59]	It goes to bias, Your Honor.
[19:00]	Dr. Henson is using this courtroom to settle a score.
[19:04]	Overruled.
[19:06]	Please answer the question.
[19:07]	We had differences of opinion on a number of cases.
[19:11]	But she has the right to work with whomever she chooses.
[19:16]	I will admit that I did not like the way she operated the unit.
[19:21]	In my opinion, she was obsessive.
[19:25]	Determined to solve any case, no matter what.
[19:27]	Sometimes even if the forensics did not bear her out.
[19:32]	But again,
[19:33]	that is your opinion.
[19:36]	The opinion of the man she replaced and ultimately fired.
[19:43]	Just my opinion.
[19:45]	No further questions, Your Honor.
[19:52]	This is the last of it.
[19:53]	Every piece of information about the hair that exists.
[19:56]	Your original analysis, your second analysis,
[19:59]	the independent analysis, photos, storage data.
[20:08]	Anything jumping out at you?
[20:10]	Not yet.
[20:12]	I’m not trying to get out of anything, but honestly,
[20:14]	I have no idea what I’m reading here.
[20:17]	Just give it to me.
[20:19]	You, too. Give me yours.
[20:29]	You don’t have to sit here. I don’t need a babysitter.
[20:36]	I’ll be in my office.
[20:37]	I’ll be in my bed.
[20:55]	Should I come back?
[20:57]	Of course not. What’s up?
[20:59]	Pollen.
[21:00]	Excuse me?
[21:02]	The hair all the outside labs have been testing
[21:04]	is covered with pollen.
[21:07]	And that matters because…?
[21:09]	Well, to begin with, it makes me wonder
[21:11]	whether the hair is actually a pubic hair at all.
[21:13]	And if so, how it possibly came into contact with pollen.
[21:17]	Well, I’m sure, with a little imagination,
[21:20]	someone will come up with a scenario.
[21:22]	Emily was murdered in the dead of winter.
[21:27]	And in the dead of winter, there is no pollen.
[21:30]	This is not the hair I found on Emily’s body.
[21:42]	Dr. Martin,
[21:44]	isn’t it true that the night that you
[21:45]	found the sole piece of DNA evidence against Mr. Malford,
[21:49]	that everyone had gone home
[21:51]	and you were completely alone with the victim’s body?
[21:54]	Yes. And do you regularly
[21:56]	perform autopsies alone,
[21:59]	late at night, when everyone’s gone home for the day?
[22:01]	Yes.
[22:02]	And why is that?
[22:04]	I have a really particular skill set,
[22:07]	and I find that skill set works best
[22:09]	when there’s just two of us in the room.
[22:11]	Myself, and the cadaver.
[22:13]	Other people really just end up being distractions.
[22:17]	All right. Let’s talk about that.
[22:20]	When you say that other people are distractions,
[22:22]	it sounds very… negative.
[22:26]	Very dismissive.
[22:27]	One could easily get the impression
[22:28]	that you just don’t like people.
[22:31]	And we want the jurors to like you.
[22:34]	And it helps if they think you might like them.
[22:37]	I don’t know them.
[22:40]	Of course.
[22:41]	Okay, um, let’s forget that line of thinking.
[22:46]	Here’s another reason why saying you find
[22:49]	other people distracting might not serve your best interests
[22:52]	Anything that makes it sound like you don’t like
[22:54]	having people around when you do your work
[22:56]	might make the jurors think that you don’t
[22:58]	want company because it makes it harder
[23:01]	to manipulate evidence.
[23:05]	You see that, right?
[23:06]	I don’t manipulate evidence. I know that.
[23:09]	But you’re-you’re talking to people who don’t know you.
[23:11]	So how would you suggest I answer that?
[23:15]	Well, maybe there’s another reason you work late
[23:19]	that wouldn’t lead them to the same conclusion.
[23:21]	Maybe you find it impossible to sleep
[23:25]	when there are grieving friends and relatives
[23:26]	out there waiting for answers
[23:28]	as to what happened to their loved ones?
[23:31]	I can’t say that. That’s-that’s not the truth.
[23:34]	Maybe there’s a truth
[23:36]	that’s more palatable to the jury.
[23:39]	Mr. Palmer, I’m a scientist, and scientists deal with facts.
[23:44]	There is one truth, there’s one right answer.
[23:48]	If you ask me a question, I am going to give you that truth.
[23:52]	As to whether it’s palatable,
[23:54]	that’s not something I’ve ever concerned myself with.
[23:56]	Well, it ought to be, because you’re gonna be spending
[23:58]	ten years in prison for something that you didn’t do
[24:01]	if we can’t make the jury understand
[24:03]	your side of the story.
[24:05]	Okay, again, there is no “my side” of the story.
[24:07]	There is what happened,
[24:09]	and there is what did not happen.
[24:11]	There is truth and fact, and there is falsehood.
[24:15]	You can’t spin the truth, you cannot polish it up
[24:18]	or put lipstick on a pig, which is what I feel like
[24:21]	you’re trying to do to me right now.
[24:22]	I am what I am.
[24:24]	I did what I did, and I don’t regret a minute of it
[24:26]	because I did it all by the book.
[24:30]	So are we done here?
[24:33]	It certainly seems that way.
[24:36]	You talk to Chunk? Sure did.
[24:37]	You still want to put her on the stand?
[24:39]	I do.
[24:41]	He said that she’s fundamentally incapable
[24:42]	of shading her answers even one iota.
[24:45]	Even at the risk of sending herself to prison.
[24:48]	I’m waiting for the bad news.
[24:50]	I’m pretty sure I just gave you the bad news.
[24:52]	So the truth is, this woman can’t even fudge the facts
[24:55]	to keep herself out of jail.
[24:57]	Now we just have to get a jury to understand that that means
[24:59]	she couldn’t possibly have fudged them
[25:01]	to put someone else behind bars.
[25:04]	We’ve heard a lot
[25:05]	about the fact that you like to work alone
[25:08]	and often late at night.
[25:10]	Can you please tell us
[25:12]	why that’s your practice, Dr. Martin?
[25:15]	I’m not good with people.
[25:20]	I know how that sounds.
[25:23]	Trust me, it’s not made me a lot of friends.
[25:27]	But I am good at my job.
[25:29]	I’m great at my job.
[25:32]	And in order to be the best at my job,
[25:34]	I have to be able to concentrate.
[25:36]	I have to know that every single step of that process
[25:39]	was done with precision and care.
[25:42]	And if I do every step myself, I don’t have to worry
[25:44]	that it wasn’t done properly.
[25:46]	I don’t have to worry
[25:49]	that I offended someone because I criticized them
[25:52]	for making a mistake.
[25:54]	Or that I forgot to praise someone
[25:55]	for just doing their job.
[25:57]	So what do you say to the allegations
[26:02]	that you falsified evidence
[26:04]	in order to get a conviction against John Malford?
[26:07]	I would say that’s ridiculous.
[26:10]	I don’t care about John Malford.
[26:12]	I have never cared about who gets convicted.
[26:15]	That’s not a win for me.
[26:17]	A win for me is finding the right answer.
[26:20]	It’s solving the puzzle, it’s making the crime stop.
[26:24]	I do crosswords a lot.
[26:26]	And they have these new apps now.
[26:29]	If you get stuck, you can prompt it, and it’ll give you a word,
[26:32]	or it will give you a letter.
[26:34]	And I would… I would just never do that.
[26:37]	I would never want to do that,
[26:40]	because having a filled-out crossword,
[26:43]	that does nothing for me.
[26:45]	But solving it myself, that’s the part that’s satisfying.
[26:50]	So no, I would never falsify evidence to get a conviction,
[26:55]	because then I would never really know who did it.
[26:59]	I wouldn’t solve the puzzle.
[27:01]	If you cheat, you never find the truth.
[27:09]	Marissa?
[27:10]	No movement yet,
[27:12]	but they clearly want to believe her.
[27:14]	Baby steps.
[27:19]	I’m starting to think Chunk doesn’t know his own strength.
[27:22]	Kept telling me she was hopeless, but he actually
[27:24]	turned her into a very effective witness.
[27:27]	Speak of the devil…
[27:32]	What have we here?
[27:34]	Well,
[27:36]	I wasn’t able to connect Malford directly to any of the people
[27:38]	who worked at the medical examiner’s office,
[27:40]	Serial killers
[27:43]	like Malford tend to attract obsessive fans.
[27:45]	Total strangers who begin to believe they have
[27:47]	an intimate relationship with these killers.
[27:49]	Excessive adoration disorder.
[27:51]	Yeah. I’ve heard of this.
[27:53]	Crazy ladies who marry prisoners they’ve never met before.
[27:57]	Well, they’re not all ladies and they don’t all get married,
[27:59]	but yes, that’s what we’re talking about.
[28:02]	Malford hasn’t had a jailhouse wedding yet,
[28:03]	but he does have quite the fan club.
[28:06]	Our guy’s gotten thousands of letters,
[28:08]	and he’s responded to hundreds of them.
[28:10]	The good news is, Sing Sing keeps a scan
[28:12]	of all incoming and outgoing mail,
[28:13]	and they gave Taylor access.
[28:15]	Any one of these admirers sound like they’d be willing
[28:18]	to help Malford break out of prison?
[28:19]	Yeah.
[28:21]	There’s no shortage of those.
[28:22]	But we’re still talking about over two dozen people.
[28:25]	The math is not encouraging.
[28:26]	More than 80 people had access
[28:28]	to the evidence storage facility.
[28:30]	More than two dozen crazies writing love letters.
[28:32]	That’s a lot of leads
[28:34]	to be running down in the middle of a trial.
[28:37]	We don’t have the time.
[28:39]	I’m betting a day, maybe two,
[28:40]	before the judge forces us to rest our case.
[28:44]	Maybe we should just go right to the source.
[28:47]	Excuse me?
[28:49]	See how early Benny and I can get into Sing Sing tomorrow
[28:51]	to talk with John Malford.
[28:53]	John Malford? Seriously?
[28:56]	Yeah. Sometimes the shortest distance between two points
[28:59]	is a straight line.
[29:01]	We need to figure out who’s helping this guy
[29:03]	break out of prison; Why don’t we just go ask him?
[29:16]	So what’s the game plan here, boss?
[29:17]	I just want to look him in the eye, see what I see.
[29:19]	Maybe he’ll offer something useful, maybe he won’t.
[29:21]	Serial killers tend to be outsized narcissists.
[29:24]	Nothing they like to talk about more than themselves.
[29:27]	I just want to get him talking.
[29:33]	Ryan, good to see you.
[29:35]	I didn’t know you’d be joining us.
[29:37]	Benny, Dr. Bull, pleasure.
[29:40]	When the prison informed me you’d requested a meeting,
[29:43]	I thought it wise to sit in.
[29:44]	Of course.
[29:46]	Just to be clear, this was all very last minute.
[29:47]	Nobody’s trying to pull a fast one…
[29:50]	Never even crossed my mind.
[29:51]	Just want to be certain everyone remembers,
[29:54]	my client isn’t on trial.
[29:55]	Yours is.
[29:57]	I think we’re all very clear about that.
[30:02]	You must be Mr. Malford.
[30:03]	Yeah. John.
[30:05]	Who are you?
[30:07]	These are the gentlemen representing
[30:08]	the medical examiner
[30:09]	who falsified the evidence that got you locked up, John.
[30:13]	So…
[30:14]	what can we do for you?
[30:16]	Well, we just wanted to get a look at the man
[30:18]	who’s at the center of our case.
[30:20]	How you holding up in here, John?
[30:22]	Holding up good.
[30:24]	Working out, food’s okay.
[30:27]	How’s your head?
[30:29]	You lonely? You have any friends?
[30:32]	Yeah. I got friends.
[30:34]	Inside and outside.
[30:36]	Aha.
[30:38]	How do you mean, “outside”?
[30:40]	You know.
[30:41]	I get letters, pictures. People want to visit.
[30:46]	Want to, um, make friends.
[30:50]	Women.
[30:52]	That sounds like a… great life.
[30:57]	Some of those pictures are naked.
[31:00]	So, you two working for the prison now?
[31:02]	Conducting a customer satisfaction survey?
[31:05]	The point is, John here’s been a model prisoner,
[31:08]	he’s adapted to prison life flawlessly.
[31:10]	Not a black mark on his record to hinder his appeal.
[31:13]	Right. John’s appeal.
[31:16]	Hey, I-I’ve got to ask,
[31:18]	why even bother with the appeal?
[31:21]	You seem so content.
[31:23]	Because he’s innocent.
[31:25]	What do I care
[31:27]	if this guy wants to push some papers around?
[31:30]	No skin off my back.
[31:31]	I mean, what’s the worst thing that happens?
[31:32]	I actually… get out?
[31:36]	You’re right.
[31:39]	No harm, no foul.
[31:40]	This has been great.
[31:44]	Really… helpful.
[31:47]	Mr. Vance.
[31:49]	Mr. Malford.
[31:53]	Hey, why’d you cut bait like that?
[31:55]	The guy was just warming up.
[31:58]	Maybe we could’ve gotten a name,
[32:00]	maybe found our inside man at the morgue.
[32:02]	There is no name.
[32:05]	There is no inside man at the morgue.
[32:06]	How do you mean?
[32:09]	Did Malford seem like he’d even contemplated
[32:12]	life outside of prison?
[32:13]	No. It didn’t seem like
[32:16]	he actually cared much about his appeal at all.
[32:18]	Exactly. He also showed very little interest
[32:21]	in Julia’s case.
[32:22]	Now, if this guy spent the last six years
[32:24]	hatching this scheme and manipulating some admirer
[32:27]	to do his bidding, don’t you think he’d be
[32:29]	a little more invested in the fruits of his labor?
[32:31]	So, Malford didn’t do it?
[32:33]	Malford didn’t change the evidence?
[32:36]	Back to square one?
[32:37]	Maybe not.
[32:40]	Malford might have no interest in Julia’s case,
[32:43]	but someone put this thing in motion.
[32:46]	Who do you mean?
[32:49]	Ryan? No.
[32:51]	Ryan’s his lawyer. He’s just doing his job.
[32:54]	You don’t think it strange that he was there
[32:57]	at that meeting just now, or that he has been
[33:00]	in court every day of Julia’s trial?
[33:05]	I don’t know, Bull.
[33:06]	Ryan is not my favorite guy,
[33:10]	but what does he care if Julia goes down?
[33:13]	I’m not sure.
[33:15]	I’m just telling you what I see.
[33:23]	Since we moved off the fangirl theory
[33:24]	and onto Malford’s lawyer,
[33:26]	I circled back to the 80 people
[33:27]	who had access to the evidence storage facility
[33:29]	at the medical examiner’s office to see if I could
[33:31]	try to find some kind of link.
[33:33]	We never did do a deep dive into any of their finances,
[33:35]	because Malford was broke,
[33:37]	so it didn’t seem particularly relevant.
[33:39]	But Malford’s attorney, Mr. Ryan Vance, Esquire, is not.
[33:43]	He has plenty of money to pay off
[33:45]	an overworked, underpaid lab tech.
[33:47]	Like Skylar Brown.
[33:48]	Skylar was wrestling with a significant amount of debt.
[33:51]	She maxed out four credit cards and has
[33:53]	two delinquent homeowner loans.
[33:55]	But, coincidentally, Skylar seems to have had
[33:57]	a financial windfall,
[33:59]	just three weeks prior
[34:01]	to the independent analysis of Malford’s hair.
[34:02]	A cash deposit, $60,000,
[34:05]	straight into her personal checking account.
[34:07]	Okay, $60,000 question.
[34:11]	Can we tie any of this cash back to Ryan Vance?
[34:13]	Not yet, but we are gonna keep at it.
[34:16]	I feel the heat all the way over here.
[34:18]	Something not clicking for you?
[34:20]	I got everything but the “why.”
[34:24]	Why would a successful attorney like Ryan Vance
[34:27]	put his entire livelihood, his entire legacy on the line
[34:31]	for a rapist and a murderer like John Malford?
[34:35]	So…
[34:37]	why frame Julia?
[34:39]	Why go to all the trouble?
[34:41]	Why risk putting a homicidal sexual predator
[34:43]	back on the street, earn the enmity of the D.A.’s office
[34:47]	by forcing them to reopen every case where Julia’s evidence
[34:51]	put someone away?
[34:56]	Why?
[34:58]	What are you thinking?
[35:01]	Taylor, how long do you think it’d take
[35:02]	to get a list of Ryan Vance’s other clients?
[35:05]	The other clients that are currently incarcerated?
[35:08]	I’m kind of in the middle of something…
[35:10]	I don’t care. I want that list.
[35:13]	With Your Honor’s approval,
[35:15]	we’d like to call the person sitting in the third row,
[35:18]	John Malford’s attorney Ryan Vance, to the stand.
[35:22]	Has the defense subpoenaed Mr. Vance?
[35:24]	We don’t typically allow
[35:25]	those seated in the gallery to testify.
[35:28]	Yes, we’re aware of that, Your Honor.
[35:30]	But we’re hoping that the court will see fit.
[35:32]	Your Honor,
[35:34]	I’m sorry, I… this is the first I’m hearing of this.
[35:36]	Mr. Vance’s
[35:37]	petition for the independent analysis
[35:39]	of the Malford evidence
[35:41]	initiated this whole trial.
[35:43]	I’d merely like him to speak
[35:45]	to the history of how that new analysis came to be.
[35:50]	All right. I’ll allow it.
[35:53]	So Mr. Vance, when you requested
[35:56]	an independent examination of the evidence
[35:58]	in the John Malford case, did you know a negative match
[36:02]	would call into question the professional conduct
[36:06]	and scientific expertise of my client,
[36:09]	Dr. Julia Martin?
[36:11]	That would be a natural consequence.
[36:12]	She did perform the original analysis.
[36:19]	Isn’t it true
[36:21]	that other cases will be reexamined as a result
[36:25]	of Dr. Martin’s prosecution?
[36:27]	Countless other criminals, murderers, rapists and thieves
[36:32]	are going to file for dismissal of their sentences.
[36:34]	As well they should be, yes.
[36:37]	I-Isn’t it also true that you are the sole owner
[36:42]	of Barnaby Bank account number 00403010?
[36:48]	I don’t know, I… It very well could be.
[36:50]	I don’t have my account number memorized.
[36:52]	I do bank at Barnaby, so yes, I suppose.
[36:56]	A-And isn’t it also true that you withdrew $60,000 in cash
[37:01]	on September 21st from this account?
[37:03]	Again, it’s months ago.
[37:05]	I don’t have every transaction memorized,
[37:07]	so yes, it’s possible, it sounds possible.
[37:10]	If you say so.
[37:12]	Well, it’s not me saying it.
[37:15]	Your Honor,
[37:16]	these are Mr. Vance’s bank records
[37:19]	for the month of September.
[37:22]	I’d ask that you mark them
[37:26]	as defense exhibit number 14.
[37:28]	So marked.
[37:29]	And lastly, do you know a Skylar Brown?
[37:36]	Name rings a bell. I-I can’t be certain, though.
[37:39]	Well, she’s an employee of the medical examiner’s office
[37:42]	with full access to all evidence storage.
[37:45]	Including DNA samples. Objection, Your Honor. Relevance?
[37:48]	I’m moments away, Your Honor, I promise.
[37:51]	I certainly hope so. Overruled.
[37:53]	Isn’t it strange
[37:54]	that just two days after you made your withdrawal,
[37:58]	Skylar Brown paid off all of her credit cards,
[38:01]	her delinquent loans?
[38:04]	All of her outstanding debts?
[38:06]	Following a deposit of exactly $60,000 in cash
[38:11]	into her checking account?
[38:13]	I wouldn’t say strange. I might say coincidental.
[38:20]	How old were you when your brother
[38:22]	was convicted of murder?
[38:26]	I really don’t think that has anything to do
[38:28]	with the business at hand.
[38:30]	I-Isn’t your brother Trevor one of your clients?
[38:35]	And wasn’t the evidence in his case also assessed by my client,
[38:40]	Dr. Julia Martin?
[38:42]	And if Dr. Martin is found guilty,
[38:45]	isn’t Trevor’s conviction likely to be overturned,
[38:48]	just like John Malford’s?
[38:50]	And isn’t that why you paid
[38:52]	Skylar Brown $60,000,
[38:56]	to replace the hair that was used
[38:58]	to convict your client, John Malford?
[39:05]	Mr. Vance,
[39:07]	do you need the question repeated?
[39:11]	That’s all right, Your Honor.
[39:13]	I think the jury already has their answer.
[39:16]	No further questions.
[39:22]	Is the prosecution prepared to cross-examine the witness?
[39:30]	Actually, no.
[39:34]	But we are prepared, based on Ryan Vance’s testimony
[39:37]	and the evidence presented by Mr. Colón,
[39:41]	to withdraw our charges
[39:42]	against Dr. Martin…
[39:46]	and offer our apologies.
[39:58]	Thank you. You’re welcome.
[40:20]	Dr. Martin, it’s 200 in the morning, and I heard a noise.
[40:24]	No one else is here, you know, and I was just about to leave.
[40:28]	You gonna be okay?
[40:29]	I’m going to be perfect.
