| [00:10] | Tally. For God’s sake. | |
| [00:12] | That was a hundred dollar bottle of liquor. | |
| [00:17] | Just say you won’t do it. | |
| [00:19] | I’m not gonna have that conversation with you here, sis. | |
| [00:20] | It’s supposed to be a party. | |
| [00:23] | When are we gonna have it? Were we ever gonna have it? | |
| [00:26] | Or were you just gonna do what you were going to do? | |
| [00:29] | You’re acting crazy. | |
| [00:30] | Crazy. Is that why you’re doing this? | |
| [00:33] | Because I’m so crazy? | |
| [00:35] | You haven’t seen crazy. | |
| [00:37] | Tally… Don’t you dare. | |
| [00:38] | Hey, everyone just chill. | |
| [00:40] | Okay? It’s a party. | |
| [01:49] | 911. What’s your emergency? | |
| [01:51] | My God, you have to help me. | |
| [01:53] | I think somebody’s murdered my brother. | |
| [01:57] | My God. Please, please. | |
| [02:00] | There’s so much blood. I don’t know what to do. | |
| [02:02] | I need you to stay calm, ma’am. Help is on the way. | |
| [02:04] | Thank you. Thank you. | |
| [02:18] | Tally North, | |
| [02:20] | ethereal downtown party fixture, | |
| [02:21] | trust fund poster child, is accused of killing her brother. | |
| [02:24] | Torin North, a rising tech superstar, | |
| [02:26] | in the Chelsea loft they share, | |
| [02:27] | and into which they poured several million dollars | |
| [02:30] | following the death of their wealthy parents | |
| [02:32] | in a private plane crash. | |
| [02:36] | Tally. | |
| [02:58] | You have new glasses, Dr. Bull. | |
| [03:01] | It’s nice to see you too, Tally. | |
| [03:03] | It’s been 12 years. | |
| [03:05] | I like them. | |
| [03:07] | Thank you. | |
| [03:11] | I heard about your parents. | |
| [03:13] | I tried calling, but my numbers didn’t work. | |
| [03:16] | I sent you a card. | |
| [03:18] | Okay. I didn’t see it, | |
| [03:21] | but I think I might have been in a hospital | |
| [03:25] | in Indiana around then. | |
| [03:28] | Are you here because you want me back as a patient? | |
| [03:32] | I came here to see if I could help you. | |
| [03:34] | Legally, psychologically. | |
| [03:37] | So you can leave me again? | |
| [03:41] | I know you don’t feel much, | |
| [03:44] | but I have always felt badly about that. | |
| [03:48] | It’s okay. I survived. | |
| [03:52] | I won’t lie, it would have been nice | |
| [03:54] | to have you around for all my teenage rites of passage. | |
| [03:58] | But I guess that’s what the eight other therapists | |
| [04:00] | I ended up going to were for. | |
| [04:03] | Although it was difficult to talk to the one that was | |
| [04:05] | molesting me about how much I disliked him molesting me. | |
| [04:10] | I know you’re angry with me… | |
| [04:13] | Dr. Bull, you know better than anyone, | |
| [04:16] | I’m largely incapable of anger. | |
| [04:18] | Well, whatever you call it, however you process it, | |
| [04:23] | I’m sorry if you felt abandoned. | |
| [04:29] | You know, when I closed my practice back then, | |
| [04:31] | it was to start a whole new business, | |
| [04:33] | something called trial science. | |
| [04:35] | I work with lawyers, and we help to figure out | |
| [04:38] | the best way to try a case. | |
| [04:41] | I know I haven’t seen you since you were 14, | |
| [04:43] | but I don’t think you’re gonna find | |
| [04:45] | anyone out there who understands you better. | |
| [04:49] | And it would mean a lot to me to help you. | |
| [04:53] | You understand they want to put you in prison | |
| [04:55] | for the rest of your life? | |
| [04:57] | Yes. I do understand that. | |
| [05:03] | Did you do it, Tally? | |
| [05:05] | Well, I wasmad at him. | |
| [05:08] | He was filing for guardianship. | |
| [05:10] | He wanted to lock me up, get me institutionalized. | |
| [05:14] | Did you do it, Tally? | |
| [05:17] | Well, I’ll tell you, Dr. Bull, | |
| [05:20] | because I know you’ll understand. | |
| [05:23] | I have no idea. | |
| [05:25] | I honestly don’t remember. | |
| [05:27] | You had one of your blackouts? | |
| [05:29] | Must be. | |
| [05:31] | One minute, I was having it out with my brother at the party, | |
| [05:34] | and the next, I was waking up covered in blood, | |
| [05:37] | with Torin dead on the floor. | |
| [05:39] | I honestly don’t remember what came in between. | |
| [05:45] | You still want to help me? | |
| [06:06] | Hey. | |
| [06:08] | You going somewhere? | |
| [06:10] | Home. | |
| [06:12] | What, you don’t like it here? | |
| [06:14] | Well, you know, | |
| [06:16] | when I wake up in the morning, I like to be near my things, | |
| [06:19] | I like clean clothes, I like to sleep in my own bed. | |
| [06:21] | And plus, | |
| [06:24] | you know, Cable used to live here, | |
| [06:25] | in this building. | |
| [06:27] | It just doesn’t feel right. | |
| [06:30] | Okay. I hear that. | |
| [06:34] | It’s just, sometimes it’s nice | |
| [06:35] | to wake up lying next to somebody, you know? | |
| [06:38] | Don’t you think? | |
| [06:39] | I’m sure it’s nice for you. Me? | |
| [06:41] | I got to get to work in the morning. | |
| [06:44] | Okay. | |
| [06:46] | I don’t understand. | |
| [06:49] | What’s the problem? You got what you wanted. | |
| [06:51] | Wow. | |
| [06:52] | Okay. You are hard, girl. | |
| [06:56] | You know, that’s another thing. | |
| [06:57] | I’m not a girl. I’m a woman. | |
| [06:59] | So stop talking to me like it’s freshman year | |
| [07:00] | and we’re living in the dorms away from our folks | |
| [07:02] | for the first time, yeah? | |
| [07:04] | I had a good time. Let’s not ruin it. | |
| [07:07] | Can I give you something? | |
| [07:11] | It’s not your class ring? | |
| [07:13] | You’re not gonna ask me to go steady, are you? What is this? | |
| [07:16] | That’s a key. | |
| [07:19] | That way, you can get in here whenever you want. | |
| [07:21] | Gabriel, I’m never gonna use this. | |
| [07:25] | No, no, no, it’s not… It’s for emergencies. | |
| [07:27] | Okay? That way, you know, I lose my key, | |
| [07:30] | I know you have one, or if the… | |
| [07:31] | maybe the gas company | |
| [07:33] | needs to get in here, they can’t find me and they can call you. | |
| [07:37] | Hey, listen. | |
| [07:38] | I mean, we’re friends, right? | |
| [07:40] | That’s the sort of things friends do. | |
| [07:46] | Now you give me yours? | |
| [07:48] | You are so pushing your luck. | |
| [07:51] | No, no, no… What are you talking about? | |
| [07:53] | I didn’t say anything. | |
| [07:54] | Hey, you’re hearing things, girl. | |
| [07:56] | Okay, you know what? The truth is, | |
| [07:57] | I-I can’t sleep with somebody that’s in my bed anyway. | |
| [08:00] | I don’t care how beautiful and-and naked they are. | |
| [08:03] | So go, please. | |
| [08:04] | Okay? So I can get some rest. | |
| [08:06] | Close the door. | |
| [08:08] | Her name is Tally North. | |
| [08:10] | Since the age of ten, she has been diagnosed | |
| [08:12] | with antisocial personality disorder. | |
| [08:14] | She lacks empathy for others, | |
| [08:16] | exhibits severely stunted emotions, | |
| [08:19] | and is prone to violence. | |
| [08:20] | Isn’t that what we used to call a sociopath | |
| [08:22] | in the good old days? | |
| [08:24] | Actually, she used to be his patient, | |
| [08:27] | so this is kind of personal. | |
| [08:29] | This is gonna be tough, trying to get a jury | |
| [08:31] | to sympathize with a sociopath. | |
| [08:33] | Juries usually like to see remorse in their killers, | |
| [08:37] | and there’s not gonna be any. | |
| [08:39] | The night of the murder, | |
| [08:41] | Tally was arguing with her brother, Torin. | |
| [08:44] | The whole party, a hundred-some people, | |
| [08:46] | saw them going at each other. | |
| [08:48] | Well, I don’t understand. | |
| [08:49] | How can she be angry if she can’t feel emotions? | |
| [08:51] | It’s complicated, but what sociopaths like Tally do feel | |
| [08:55] | are emotions involving themselves. | |
| [08:57] | That’s why you don’t get joy or sadness, | |
| [08:59] | because those are emotions | |
| [09:00] | that come from connections to other people. | |
| [09:02] | But conviction? Determination? | |
| [09:05] | Those are self-contained and self-generating. | |
| [09:07] | All right, so, | |
| [09:09] | let’s cut to the chase. Does she have an alibi? | |
| [09:11] | If she does, she doesn’t remember. | |
| [09:13] | Well, that’s pretty damn convenient. | |
| [09:15] | Agreed. The thing is, she is prone to blackouts, | |
| [09:19] | and swears she can’t remember anything that happened | |
| [09:21] | between the confrontation at the party and waking up | |
| [09:23] | to find her brother’s dead body on the floor. | |
| [09:26] | The old “I just don’t remember” defense. | |
| [09:28] | According to Bull, she has suffered | |
| [09:31] | from fugue state blackouts since she was a child. | |
| [09:34] | Fugue state blackouts? | |
| [09:35] | Was she asleep? | |
| [09:36] | Was she awake? | |
| [09:37] | A fugue state is a dissociative episode | |
| [09:40] | where sufferers experience temporary amnesia | |
| [09:43] | and a lack of awareness of themselves or their actions. | |
| [09:46] | Okay, so what’s the big guy say? | |
| [09:48] | Does he think that this fugue thing is a credible defense? | |
| [09:50] | Does he think that the jury will buy into it? | |
| [09:53] | No. Bull wants to plead not guilty by reason of insanity. | |
| [09:58] | If Tally was in a fugue state | |
| [09:59] | during the murder, she lacked the substantial capacity | |
| [10:02] | to appreciate the criminality of her conduct | |
| [10:05] | when she killed her brother. | |
| [10:06] | Terrific. | |
| [10:07] | I’m gonna go back to the conference room, | |
| [10:09] | comb through my law books, | |
| [10:10] | see if I can find any insanity plea precedents. | |
| [10:13] | With any luck, I’ll fall into a fugue state. | |
| [10:21] | Dr. Bull? | |
| [10:23] | D.A.’s office just sent over this subpoena | |
| [10:25] | for all your old records and any recordings of therapy sessions | |
| [10:28] | related to your treatment of Tally North. | |
| [10:30] | I don’t understand. Isn’t that material privileged? | |
| [10:33] | You were her doctor, she was your patient. | |
| [10:37] | Well, normally you’d be right, | |
| [10:39] | but since we are raising the insanity defense, | |
| [10:43] | they are able to look at and introduce into evidence | |
| [10:46] | anything that has to do with Tally’s mental health. | |
| [10:49] | I haven’t looked at that stuff in years. | |
| [10:51] | Let me go through it tonight and then we’ll get over there | |
| [10:53] | first thing in the morning. | |
| [10:56] | I can’t believe | |
| [10:57] | she’s dead. | |
| [10:59] | I miss her so much. | |
| [11:00] | I never even got to say good-bye. | |
| [11:03] | Tally, stop it. | |
| [11:04] | You’re wasting my time. | |
| [11:06] | You’re manufacturing your response, | |
| [11:08] | not feeling an emotion. | |
| [11:10] | What are you talking about? | |
| [11:12] | I’m not! | |
| [11:14] | She was my favorite aunt. | |
| [11:17] | And I don’t know how I’m gonna go on living. | |
| [11:19] | I have every confidence you’ll find a way. | |
| [11:24] | You always know, don’t you? | |
| [11:26] | That’s my job, Tally. | |
| [11:37] | According to the incident reports, | |
| [11:38] | the murder weapon… The scissors… | |
| [11:41] | Were wiped clean of fingerprints. | |
| [11:43] | Dr. Diposo, you’re a forensic psychiatrist. | |
| [11:46] | Have you seen this kind of thing before? | |
| [11:48] | All the time. Really? | |
| [11:50] | And why would a killer do such a thing? | |
| [11:52] | It sort of goes without saying. | |
| [11:55] | Generally, if a murder weapon is found wiped of fingerprints, | |
| [11:58] | it indicates that the killer was trying to hide their identity | |
| [12:01] | to avoid getting caught. | |
| [12:02] | That makes enormous sense. | |
| [12:04] | Now, what makes less sense… | |
| [12:06] | And admittedly, I’m not the expert here, | |
| [12:08] | you are… | |
| [12:09] | Is it possible that someone in a fugue state blackout | |
| [12:12] | would have the presence of mind | |
| [12:14] | to wipe their weapon? | |
| [12:15] | Well, that’s an act of specific intent. | |
| [12:18] | I would find it highly unlikely. | |
| [12:22] | And how would you interpret the fibers found | |
| [12:25] | in the blood on the victim’s neck | |
| [12:27] | and the bloodied sheet found nearby? | |
| [12:29] | It would appear that the killer tried to staunch the bleeding | |
| [12:33] | after stabbing the victim. My guess is the killer | |
| [12:36] | experienced a moment of remorse… | |
| [12:38] | Regretted what he or she had done, | |
| [12:40] | and wanted to try and save the victim. | |
| [12:42] | Now, in your professional opinion, | |
| [12:46] | is that kind of remorse consistent with someone | |
| [12:48] | in a fugue state, Doctor? | |
| [12:50] | Quite the contrary. | |
| [12:51] | That would demonstrate a high degree of self-awareness | |
| [12:54] | that people in fugue states rarely possess. | |
| [12:57] | Sorry to be the bearer, but this jury is finding the witness | |
| [13:00] | extremely credible and compelling. At the moment, | |
| [13:02] | we are looking at only a single green juror. | |
| [13:05] | No, no, it’s fine. | |
| [13:07] | I don’t care. It’s all good. | |
| [13:09] | No further questions at this time. | |
| [13:10] | One green juror… | |
| [13:11] | You call that all good? | |
| [13:13] | I’ll get ’em back on the cross, Bull. | |
| [13:15] | Just call for a recess. | |
| [13:16] | You sure? | |
| [13:20] | Your Honor, the defense would like to request | |
| [13:22] | a short recess. | |
| [13:25] | Hey, you want to tell me what’s going on? | |
| [13:28] | That forensic psychiatrist… | |
| [13:30] | She just declared our client not guilty. | |
| [13:32] | I’m sorry, were you in the same courtroom I was? | |
| [13:34] | I sure was. | |
| [13:36] | She said whoever killed Torin felt a moment of remorse. | |
| [13:39] | And? Remorse is a function of empathy. | |
| [13:41] | You share the pain the other person is feeling. | |
| [13:45] | Sociopaths like Tally don’t have empathy. | |
| [13:48] | They certainly don’t feel remorse. | |
| [13:50] | Our client didn’t do this. | |
| [13:53] | She’s not the killer. | |
| [13:55] | Wait a second, wait a second, wait a second. | |
| [13:59] | We already told the jury that Tally did do it. | |
| [14:03] | She killed her brother. | |
| [14:05] | Not guilty by reason of insanity. | |
| [14:07] | That was our plea. | |
| [14:08] | Now we’re saying she didn’t do it? | |
| [14:12] | My goodness. | |
| [14:14] | So, how-how does this work? | |
| [14:16] | Do we just go in there and tell the jury | |
| [14:18] | that we were wrong? | |
| [14:21] | I guess so. | |
| [14:28] | So now you want to change your plea? I do, Your Honor. | |
| [14:30] | Well, in truth, there’s nothing I can do to stop you, | |
| [14:33] | but given your original plea and your opening statement, | |
| [14:36] | I fear you’re gonna confuse and frustrate the jury. | |
| [14:41] | We are willing to accept that risk, Your Honor. | |
| [14:45] | A.D.A. Scrivener, you have anything to say? | |
| [14:47] | I just want to be clear. You opened the door | |
| [14:49] | to your client’s mental health when you entered | |
| [14:51] | a plea of not guilty by reason of insanity. | |
| [14:53] | I am taking the position that all of that material | |
| [14:56] | we were able to access by dint of that plea | |
| [14:58] | is still on the table. | |
| [14:59] | Clinical evaluations, doctors’ records, what have you… | |
| [15:02] | All of that is still admissible. | |
| [15:03] | Doesn’t just go away because you changed your mind. | |
| [15:06] | We understand that. But, just so we’re clear, | |
| [15:08] | our client’s mental health is no longer the point. | |
| [15:10] | We intend to prove she simply didn’t do it. | |
| [15:12] | And, sane or crazy, you can’t convict someone | |
| [15:14] | for something they simply didn’t do. | |
| [15:17] | All right, everybody back to your corners. | |
| [15:19] | And just so that I’m clear… New plea, old plea… | |
| [15:22] | This trial is proceeding tomorrow morning at 900 sharp. | |
| [15:25] | And please be ready to call your first witness, gentlemen. | |
| [15:30] | Years ago, when I used to treat Tally, | |
| [15:31] | if she had one of these | |
| [15:32] | fugue state blackouts… | |
| [15:36] | there were still always splinters of memory. | |
| [15:40] | Tiny things that she would remember | |
| [15:41] | about the events that took place. | |
| [15:43] | And she couldn’t always make sense of them, | |
| [15:46] | but they were there. | |
| [15:47] | This murder, this supposed blackout… | |
| [15:51] | She remembers nothing. | |
| [15:53] | Which makes perfect sense if she didn’t do it. | |
| [15:56] | Yeah, but having her testify that she simply doesn’t remember | |
| [16:00] | is not going to convince the jury to let her off. | |
| [16:04] | I know this is easier said than done, | |
| [16:06] | but I fear the only way to prove she didn’t do it | |
| [16:08] | is to figure out who did. | |
| [16:10] | See that? | |
| [16:11] | Mediocre minds think alike. | |
| [16:14] | Danny and I are way ahead of you on this. | |
| [16:21] | What have we here? | |
| [16:22] | This is everyone we’ve been able to confirm | |
| [16:24] | was in attendance at that party. | |
| [16:26] | I sourced most of them from the party’s Facebook page. | |
| [16:29] | These gray boxes with question marks | |
| [16:30] | are still unidentified guests. | |
| [16:32] | Apparently, there were a lot of uninvited walk-ins. | |
| [16:35] | Anybody jump out at you? | |
| [16:37] | Yeah, this guy. | |
| [16:38] | With the red baseball cap with the plaid shirt. | |
| [16:40] | Almost everyone that I spoke with mentioned him. | |
| [16:43] | And he brought hostess gifts. | |
| [16:45] | Drugs. A lot of them. | |
| [16:47] | Torin confronted him, kicked him out. | |
| [16:48] | Might be something, might be nothing. | |
| [16:50] | But in the meantime I’m tracking him down. | |
| [16:52] | A shirt and a cap’s not a lot to go on, though. | |
| [16:54] | Just tell me we have someone to put on the stand tomorrow. | |
| [16:57] | Colonel Mustard with the candlestick in the parlor. | |
| [17:00] | Professor Plum, Mrs. White… | |
| [17:02] | Again, | |
| [17:04] | mediocre minds. | |
| [17:06] | This is Blake Lambert. | |
| [17:08] | He’s the one I’d put on the stand. | |
| [17:09] | – We reached out to him. – He wants to help. | |
| [17:11] | One of Torin’s best friends. | |
| [17:12] | He’s known Torin and Tally for years. | |
| [17:14] | Can speak to their history. | |
| [17:15] | He was a co-host on the party’s Facebook event. | |
| [17:17] | At the very least, he could speak to how many people | |
| [17:19] | were there, insinuate that the prosecution | |
| [17:21] | may have jumped the gun in finding their suspect. | |
| [17:23] | I mean, there were a hundred guests at that party. | |
| [17:27] | That’s 99 potential murderers. | |
| [17:29] | Sounds like a fine witness to me. | |
| [17:31] | And we’ll keep working. | |
| [17:35] | What siblings don’t fight? | |
| [17:36] | Torin and Tally argued all the time | |
| [17:39] | about money, | |
| [17:40] | pizza toppings, what color to paint the damn walls. | |
| [17:44] | I’ve heard Tally yell at him hundreds of times. | |
| [17:46] | But she never tried to kill him. | |
| [17:48] | She loved her brother. | |
| [17:50] | So, tell me about the party. Who was there? | |
| [17:52] | Who wasn’t? | |
| [17:54] | The whole thing got out of control pretty quickly. | |
| [17:56] | It was supposed to be, like, 20 of our friends, | |
| [17:58] | but, I think everyone got kind of carried away | |
| [18:00] | with the plus-one thing. | |
| [18:02] | Everyone was drinking, or doing whatever. | |
| [18:04] | And at one point I looked around and realized | |
| [18:07] | I didn’t know who half the people were. | |
| [18:09] | Now, when you say “drinking or whatever,” | |
| [18:11] | are you referring to drugs? | |
| [18:13] | I didn’t use the word “drugs.” | |
| [18:15] | I’m saying people were partying, | |
| [18:18] | and some were partying quite hard. | |
| [18:19] | So you’ve got this big loft. | |
| [18:23] | It’s filled with people. | |
| [18:25] | Many of whom you suspect are total strangers. | |
| [18:28] | People are consuming alcohol, | |
| [18:30] | maybe other things… | |
| [18:32] | Isn’t it reasonable to suspect | |
| [18:34] | that any one of a number of people | |
| [18:35] | could have killed your friend Torin? | |
| [18:37] | Objection. Relevance. | |
| [18:39] | Not to mention he’s leading the witness. | |
| [18:40] | Not to mention he’s asking him for an opinion | |
| [18:42] | based on speculation. Not to mention… | |
| [18:44] | I get it. Objection sustained. | |
| [18:47] | Mr. Colón? | |
| [18:49] | No further questions. | |
| [18:51] | He did that on purpose, didn’t he? | |
| [18:54] | He knew that it was against the rules, | |
| [18:55] | but he wanted the jury to think about all those other people, | |
| [18:57] | how any one of them could have done it. | |
| [18:58] | Shh, you’re giving away all my secrets. | |
| [19:00] | We just jumped | |
| [19:01] | from one green juror to three. | |
| [19:04] | Mr. Lambert, I’d like to revisit the fight | |
| [19:08] | the defendant and the victim were having that evening. | |
| [19:10] | Do you know what they were fighting about? | |
| [19:12] | I do. Torin had filed | |
| [19:14] | for legal guardianship of his sister. | |
| [19:16] | Torin was very protective of Tally. | |
| [19:19] | Okay, but you can be protective without | |
| [19:20] | filing for guardianship. | |
| [19:23] | Do you have any idea what possessed him | |
| [19:25] | to seek a court order declaring that his sister | |
| [19:28] | was unable to manage her own affairs? | |
| [19:29] | Not specifically, just that… | |
| [19:33] | she was becoming more and more of a challenge | |
| [19:35] | to control. | |
| [19:36] | Her safety, her spending, | |
| [19:39] | her temper… I’m sorry, did you say “her temper”? | |
| [19:41] | I didn’t mean it like that. | |
| [19:44] | I-It’s what I said before. They’d argue. | |
| [19:46] | But I don’t think he was scared of her. | |
| [19:48] | I don’t think anyone was scared of her. | |
| [19:50] | More, worriedfor her. | |
| [19:53] | And, I mean, he’d tell me how, sometimes, | |
| [19:55] | she’d stay out all night. I mean, she’s… | |
| [19:59] | she’s beautiful. She’s going to attract attention. | |
| [20:02] | It’s a lot for a 28-year-old guy | |
| [20:04] | to deal with or worry about. | |
| [20:07] | So, I think he felt that | |
| [20:09] | both of their lives might improve | |
| [20:11] | if she were in a place that was set up | |
| [20:14] | to deal with people with her kind of challenges. | |
| [20:18] | Torin did it | |
| [20:20] | so that he could get her the help that she needed. | |
| [20:23] | It was for her protection. | |
| [20:25] | Her protection? Are you sure? | |
| [20:27] | Well, what else could it be? | |
| [20:29] | Are you sure it wasn’t for his protection as well? Your Honor, | |
| [20:32] | I object. | |
| [20:33] | The counselor is testifying | |
| [20:34] | andleading the witness and… | |
| [20:37] | Thanks, Mr. Colón. I’ll take it from here. | |
| [20:39] | Objection sustained. | |
| [20:41] | Please get to the point, Counselor. | |
| [20:43] | Apologies, Your Honor. | |
| [20:45] | So, did Torin tell you why he felt | |
| [20:47] | he needed protection from his sister? | |
| [20:49] | Objection! | |
| [20:50] | Hearsay. No foundation. | |
| [20:52] | What are we doing here, Your Honor? | |
| [20:54] | Sustained. | |
| [20:55] | The ice is incredibly thin | |
| [20:57] | where you’re standing, Ms. Scrivener. | |
| [21:00] | I understand, Your Honor. | |
| [21:02] | Let’s come at this another way. | |
| [21:04] | When you would see them together, | |
| [21:05] | brother and sister, how did Torin appear… | |
| [21:08] | Did he look comfortable? | |
| [21:11] | Sometimes yes. Sometimes no. | |
| [21:13] | What about the night of the party… | |
| [21:14] | Did he look scared? | |
| [21:21] | She was smashing liquor bottles. | |
| [21:24] | He looked like he was afraid she was gonna snap | |
| [21:27] | and hurt somebody. Hurt him. | |
| [21:32] | I think we all felt the same way. | |
| [21:34] | Forget that thing I said about three greens. | |
| [21:36] | No further questions for this witness. | |
| [21:41] | I really don’t have any new news. | |
| [21:43] | Still trying to nail down our mystery man in the red cap. | |
| [21:47] | I’m still knee-deep | |
| [21:49] | in the social media of it all. | |
| [21:51] | Trying to fill in some of those gray boxes. | |
| [21:56] | I really need to leave now. | |
| [21:58] | Pick up my son. | |
| [22:08] | Can I throw a crazy idea out there? | |
| [22:12] | Are we missing the obvious? | |
| [22:15] | And if we weren’t representing her, | |
| [22:17] | wouldn’t she be our number-one suspect? | |
| [22:21] | It’s all there, Bull | |
| [22:22] | Means, motive and opportunity. | |
| [22:25] | Are you sure… really sure… | |
| [22:27] | That Tally didn’t do it? | |
| [22:29] | And if you stop for a second to consider that maybe | |
| [22:33] | you think she’s innocent just because | |
| [22:36] | you want her to be innocent. | |
| [22:37] | Easy, Chunk. | |
| [22:40] | You keep saying that she couldn’t have done this. | |
| [22:42] | And that even if she did do it, | |
| [22:44] | she never would’ve reversed course to try to save him, | |
| [22:47] | because that requires empathy, and she doesn’t have that. | |
| [22:51] | But maybe she tried to stop the bleeding | |
| [22:53] | to save herself. | |
| [22:55] | Maybe she regretted what she’d done | |
| [22:57] | because she didn’t want to get caught. | |
| [23:01] | I’m sorry. | |
| [23:03] | But… Nothing to be sorry for. | |
| [23:06] | I pay you to tell me what you think. | |
| [23:08] | Thank you. | |
| [23:11] | You done? | |
| [23:14] | Yeah. | |
| [23:15] | Excellent. I will see you all tomorrow. | |
| [23:31] | You know, it took a lot of courage for him to do that. | |
| [23:41] | Prosecution’s newest exhibit. | |
| [23:43] | They’re presenting it tomorrow. | |
| [23:47] | Why didn’t they send this in last week? | |
| [23:50] | Because it didn’t exist last week. | |
| [23:51] | Guards did a sweep | |
| [23:53] | of Tally’s cell this morning, and there it was. | |
| [23:59] | W-What is it? | |
| [24:05] | Well, at least we know the jury won’t be out long. | |
| [24:10] | You want to tell me what I’m looking at here? | |
| [24:14] | I was just doing what you taught me. | |
| [24:16] | Fill in the blanks. | |
| [24:18] | When you have a blackout, sketch the things you know, and then | |
| [24:21] | try and sketch the things you don’t. | |
| [24:25] | Make the unconscious conscious, | |
| [24:26] | isn’t that what you always told me? | |
| [24:28] | The only things I know are the things I’m hearing in court, | |
| [24:31] | so I started there. | |
| [24:34] | Just trying to process the memory loss, | |
| [24:36] | see if it would jog something. | |
| [24:38] | For the record, it didn’t. | |
| [24:43] | Tally. | |
| [24:46] | I think I may have given you some horrible advice. | |
| [24:49] | What do you mean? | |
| [24:51] | I think I inadvertently had you draw yourself | |
| [24:54] | into a guilty verdict. | |
| [25:01] | Miss North… | |
| [25:04] | you don’t deny that those are your drawings, do you? | |
| [25:06] | No, no. They’re mine. | |
| [25:08] | And you know, more often than not, | |
| [25:11] | people accused of murder | |
| [25:13] | do not testify at their own trials? | |
| [25:16] | The law does not require them to, | |
| [25:19] | but you chose to try and explain the drawings | |
| [25:22] | and to answer questions about your brother’s murder, | |
| [25:24] | isn’t that correct? | |
| [25:25] | Yes. | |
| [25:26] | Tell us about these drawings. | |
| [25:32] | Well, I’ve always drawn. | |
| [25:33] | Ever since I could hold a crayon. | |
| [25:36] | And my art has | |
| [25:37] | always tended to be dark, violent. | |
| [25:40] | It actually used to worry me. | |
| [25:43] | And just to be clear, the drawings that depict | |
| [25:45] | your brother’s murder were drawn | |
| [25:47] | after you were jailed, correct? | |
| [25:50] | After you were charged with Torin’s murder, | |
| [25:53] | after the trial started? | |
| [25:54] | Yes, sir.So… | |
| [25:58] | This isn’t you… | |
| [26:00] | planning your brother’s death… | |
| [26:02] | fantasizing about killing him, | |
| [26:05] | imagining what it would be like? | |
| [26:06] | No. | |
| [26:08] | It’s just me taking elements of the murder, | |
| [26:11] | things I had heard about here in court | |
| [26:13] | and piecing them together to see if it would help me remember. | |
| [26:16] | Remember what? | |
| [26:19] | Anything. | |
| [26:21] | I have absolutely no memory of anything that happened | |
| [26:24] | after I went to my bedroom, after our disagreement. | |
| [26:27] | Up until I woke up and found my brother dead on the floor. | |
| [26:31] | You sure about this next move, Bull? | |
| [26:33] | “Sure” is a strong word. | |
| [26:34] | I prefer “what other choice do we have.” | |
| [26:44] | Tally… | |
| [26:46] | are you sad your brother’s dead? | |
| [26:51] | No. | |
| [26:56] | If I were you, I’d pull a couple of dollar bills | |
| [26:58] | out of my wallet and stare at ’em, ’cause that’s | |
| [27:00] | the last green you’re gonna be seeing for a while.Order. | |
| [27:02] | Order, please. | |
| [27:09] | Do you want to explain? | |
| [27:12] | Look, I know it must be hard | |
| [27:13] | to understand how I work. | |
| [27:15] | What goes on in my head. | |
| [27:18] | I just don’t feel the same things you do. | |
| [27:21] | I don’t get happy. | |
| [27:23] | I don’t get sad. | |
| [27:26] | I find it really hard to care about anyone other than myself. | |
| [27:35] | Of course… | |
| [27:38] | I can make you think I care. | |
| [27:51] | But it’s a trick. | |
| [27:53] | Something I learned when I was very young. | |
| [27:56] | I could do it when I fell off my bike, or… | |
| [27:59] | when I didn’t get something I wanted for my birthday. | |
| [28:02] | And then one day I realized, | |
| [28:06] | “This is what they wanted me to do | |
| [28:09] | “when my goldfish died. | |
| [28:11] | I can do that for them.” | |
| [28:14] | And before you ask, | |
| [28:16] | yes. | |
| [28:18] | I know something is missing. | |
| [28:21] | Something is broken. | |
| [28:24] | Wrong. | |
| [28:26] | And I feel really lonely because of that. | |
| [28:29] | I’m a part of a world that I don’t totally understand. | |
| [28:33] | And one that, for the most part, | |
| [28:36] | seems really frightened of me. | |
| [28:45] | So I’m gonna ask you once again. | |
| [28:48] | Tally, are you sad that your brother’s dead? | |
| [28:51] | My brother was the only person who ever loved me. | |
| [28:57] | He just did. | |
| [28:59] | Even though I couldn’t love him back. | |
| [29:06] | Why would I want to make that go away? | |
| [29:11] | My goodness, we just picked up a green. | |
| [29:15] | You sound surprised. | |
| [29:16] | I told you I was sure it would work. | |
| [29:20] | My goodness, Ms. North, you’ve had a lot of therapists | |
| [29:22] | in your short life, haven’t you? | |
| [29:23] | Relatively speaking, I suppose. | |
| [29:26] | And isn’t it true that one of your therapists | |
| [29:28] | is now part of your defense team, Dr. Jason Bull? | |
| [29:33] | It is. | |
| [29:34] | Can you identify him for us? | |
| [29:36] | He’s sitting right there. | |
| [29:39] | I’d like to play a video excerpt | |
| [29:41] | from a session that you and Dr. Bull had in June of 2003. | |
| [29:44] | I believe your aunt just died | |
| [29:46] | in a car accident. | |
| [29:49] | I can’t believe she’s dead. | |
| [29:52] | I miss her so much. | |
| [29:54] | Okay, Tally. Stop it. | |
| [29:56] | You’re wasting my time. | |
| [29:57] | You’re manufacturing your response, | |
| [29:58] | not feeling an emotion. | |
| [30:00] | What are you talking about? | |
| [30:02] | She was my favorite aunt, and I don’t know | |
| [30:04] | how I’m gonna go on living. | |
| [30:06] | I have every confidence you’ll find a way. | |
| [30:11] | You always know, don’t you? | |
| [30:13] | That’s my job, Tally. | |
| [30:14] | Now tell me what you’re really feeling. | |
| [30:18] | How can you expect this jury | |
| [30:20] | to believe a word you say | |
| [30:22] | when you freely confess to this jury, | |
| [30:24] | freely confess to your own therapist… | |
| [30:26] | Now a member of your defense team… | |
| [30:27] | That your word, | |
| [30:29] | your behavior, can’t be trusted? | |
| [30:32] | That it’s just a means to an end, something that | |
| [30:34] | you do because you know other people expect it? | |
| [30:36] | Objection, Your Honor. | |
| [30:37] | Is the prosecutor going to ask a question | |
| [30:40] | or continue giving her closing argument | |
| [30:41] | in the middle of the trial? | |
| [30:43] | Objection sustained. The jury will disregard. | |
| [30:45] | A.D.A. Scrivener’s last statement. | |
| [30:47] | No, they won’t. | |
| [30:49] | Ask a question, Counselor. | |
| [30:50] | I have no further questions, Your Honor. | |
| [30:56] | Hey. | |
| [31:07] | Gracias. No, no, no, no. Come on. | |
| [31:09] | Don’t you dare.Okay. All right. | |
| [31:11] | Don’t you dare. | |
| [31:17] | Why don’t you just use a card? | |
| [31:20] | You know, I just have so much extra cash | |
| [31:22] | lying around, I would feel stupid | |
| [31:24] | if I didn’t use it. Gracias. | |
| [31:25] | I’m serious. | |
| [31:27] | I mean, it’s not like you work at a toll booth | |
| [31:30] | and take home free samples. | |
| [31:32] | How come I’ve never seen you use a credit card? | |
| [31:34] | Yeah, well, I’m taking it slow. | |
| [31:35] | You know, I show you all my fascinating aspects… | |
| [31:38] | My-my credit cards, my 401, my yacht… | |
| [31:42] | I show you all that too soon, | |
| [31:43] | there won’t be any mystery left, you know? | |
| [31:48] | One second. | |
| [31:50] | It’s work. | |
| [31:52] | Man, you know, every time I’m convinced they’re not | |
| [31:54] | coming back to the office after court, they do. | |
| [31:56] | And every time I’m sure they’re coming back, they don’t. | |
| [32:00] | I’m sorry. I got to go. It’s okay. | |
| [32:03] | Next time on me. Yes. | |
| [32:09] | Yeah. And next time maybe I’ll show you my yacht. | |
| [32:13] | So I was able | |
| [32:15] | to ID our mystery man in the red baseball cap. | |
| [32:17] | The thing is, he’s not our killer. | |
| [32:19] | His name is Brian Davidson. | |
| [32:20] | And he left the party around 1100, | |
| [32:22] | then he got arrested at 1230. | |
| [32:26] | The murder happened around 300 a.m. | |
| [32:28] | So unless he snuck out of jail to do it, he’s not our guy. | |
| [32:31] | What was he arrested for? | |
| [32:33] | Selling drugs. | |
| [32:34] | Marijuana, cocaine, MDMA, roofies. | |
| [32:37] | Roofies? | |
| [32:41] | Tally keeps insisting the blackout | |
| [32:43] | she had at the party felt different. | |
| [32:46] | Normally, she has fragments of memory from her fugues, | |
| [32:49] | but this last one… | |
| [32:50] | Are you thinking maybe Tally wasn’t | |
| [32:52] | in a dissociative fugue at all? | |
| [32:54] | That maybe she was roofied? | |
| [32:57] | You think this Brian Davidson’s still in custody? | |
| [32:59] | I’m sure of it. | |
| [33:00] | I feel like paying him a visit. | |
| [33:07] | Mr. Lambert, | |
| [33:08] | any idea why we called you back? | |
| [33:10] | None whatsoever. | |
| [33:12] | Brian Davidson, | |
| [33:14] | a man arrested for the possession | |
| [33:17] | of illegal narcotics shortly after | |
| [33:19] | leaving the party the evening Torin North was killed, | |
| [33:22] | identified you | |
| [33:25] | as having purchased flunitrazepam from him. | |
| [33:28] | You, and only you. | |
| [33:30] | I mean, other people | |
| [33:32] | purchased other drugs, | |
| [33:34] | but only you purchased flunitrazepam from him. | |
| [33:38] | You know what flunitrazepam is, don’t you? | |
| [33:42] | No, I’m not sure I do. | |
| [33:44] | Roofies. Flunitrazepam is roofies. | |
| [33:47] | Objection, Your Honor. Relevance? | |
| [33:49] | Mr. North didn’t die of a flunitrazepam overdose. | |
| [33:52] | I know this seems a little out of the blue, | |
| [33:56] | but I promise it will all prove completely relevant | |
| [33:59] | if Your Honor would just let me get to where I need to go. | |
| [34:02] | Objection overruled. Continue, Mr. Colón. | |
| [34:04] | Thank you, Your Honor. | |
| [34:06] | Mr. Lambert, did you, in fact, | |
| [34:08] | purchase roofies that night? | |
| [34:12] | Well, yeah, | |
| [34:13] | when you call them roofies, yeah. | |
| [34:18] | May I ask why you purchased roofies? | |
| [34:22] | Well, I have trouble sleeping when I drink. | |
| [34:26] | They knock me out. | |
| [34:28] | Seems like a rather extreme solution. | |
| [34:32] | So be it. | |
| [34:34] | So, tell me, did you use these roofies | |
| [34:37] | while you were at the party? | |
| [34:40] | No. I waited till I got home. | |
| [34:43] | Till it was time to go to sleep. | |
| [34:45] | Did you perhaps inadvertently give some roofies | |
| [34:48] | to anyone else that evening? | |
| [34:49] | Slip them in their drink, perhaps? | |
| [34:51] | No. O-Of course not. Why would I do that? | |
| [34:54] | Well, it is also called the date rape drug. | |
| [34:58] | Your Honor, where are we going with this? | |
| [35:00] | Mr. Colón, I need you bring this | |
| [35:02] | to some sort of meaningful conclusion. | |
| [35:03] | Yes, Your Honor. Of course, Your Honor. | |
| [35:07] | Mr. Lambert, is it your testimony | |
| [35:10] | that the only person who consumed these roofies | |
| [35:13] | you purchased that evening was yourself? | |
| [35:15] | As far as I’m aware, yes. | |
| [35:19] | Your Honor, I’d like to introduce into evidence | |
| [35:22] | this party cup | |
| [35:23] | taken from the defendant’s room | |
| [35:26] | at the night of the murder. | |
| [35:28] | Objection, Your Honor. Foundation? | |
| [35:29] | I refer exhibit 172, | |
| [35:33] | a time-stamped crime scene photo | |
| [35:36] | showing this cup originally found in the room. | |
| [35:40] | This is one and the same. | |
| [35:42] | I’ll allow it. | |
| [35:43] | Yeah, we’ll also be introducing | |
| [35:44] | into evidence a report, Your Honor, detailing | |
| [35:48] | that trace amounts of flunitrazepam | |
| [35:49] | were found inside of the cup, | |
| [35:52] | as well as Blake Lambert’s fingerprints, | |
| [35:54] | which were found on the outside. | |
| [35:57] | And there was another set of fingerprints | |
| [35:59] | that were found on there, too, Mr. Lambert. | |
| [36:02] | Tally North’s. | |
| [36:04] | Okay. Maybe she handed me the cup or something. | |
| [36:07] | I don’t remember. | |
| [36:08] | Did you drug Tally North? | |
| [36:14] | Let the witness answer, please. | |
| [36:19] | No. | |
| [36:21] | No. | |
| [36:23] | Do you happen to remember a woman | |
| [36:26] | by the name of Leah Carpenter? | |
| [36:29] | Objection. | |
| [36:30] | Again, relevance? | |
| [36:32] | Your Honor, please. | |
| [36:33] | I promise we’re almost there. | |
| [36:36] | Overruled. Witness will answer the question. | |
| [36:42] | Yes. | |
| [36:43] | Yes! Yes. | |
| [36:45] | She attended Rennich University with you, | |
| [36:47] | and she accused you of date rape. | |
| [36:49] | Putting something in her drink, then following her back | |
| [36:51] | to her dorm room and holding her down and you know the rest. | |
| [36:55] | This is completely unfair. | |
| [36:57] | That was just… that was a misunderstanding. | |
| [37:00] | No one pressed charges. | |
| [37:02] | We have their full attention, | |
| [37:04] | but we sill haven’t changed enough minds. | |
| [37:07] | Trust me, their minds are changed. | |
| [37:08] | They’re just too damned entertained | |
| [37:10] | to take a minute and let us know. | |
| [37:12] | The night of the party, | |
| [37:13] | did you follow Tally back to her room? | |
| [37:14] | No.Did you hold her down? | |
| [37:16] | No.Did you rip her shirt? Bruise her skin? | |
| [37:19] | No.Did Torin, her brother Torin… Your best friend Torin… | |
| [37:23] | Walk in on you taking advantage of his comatose sister?! | |
| [37:26] | No, no, no! | |
| [37:28] | You can’t prove that! | |
| [37:34] | Nothing further, Your Honor. | |
| [37:40] | Reasonable doubt. | |
| [37:42] | You look it up in the dictionary, | |
| [37:46] | and there’d be a picture of all of us sitting here today. | |
| [37:49] | There’d also be a definition. | |
| [37:53] | Something along the lines of… | |
| [37:56] | “Lack of proof | |
| [37:59] | “that prevents a judge or a jury | |
| [38:01] | “from convicting a defendant | |
| [38:04] | for the charged crime.” | |
| [38:08] | Only Torin North and his killer | |
| [38:09] | know exactly what happened in that room. | |
| [38:12] | But you’ve heard all the evidence. | |
| [38:17] | Or have you? | |
| [38:19] | I’ve yet to hear a single piece of evidence | |
| [38:21] | that points to my client having done this. | |
| [38:24] | But I’ve heard a great deal to suggest an alternate theory. | |
| [38:28] | I believe that… | |
| [38:31] | Torin walked in | |
| [38:33] | on his best friend Blake Lambert | |
| [38:36] | standing over his semi-conscious sister. | |
| [38:40] | Her shirt ripped, | |
| [38:42] | her arms bruised. And he was | |
| [38:45] | fiercely protective of his sister. | |
| [38:47] | So he did what any brother would do. | |
| [38:51] | Blake fought back. | |
| [38:54] | Grabbed the scissors from Tally’s desk | |
| [38:57] | and plunged them into his best friend’s neck. | |
| [38:59] | And as Torin’s blood spilled on an unconscious Tally, | |
| [39:03] | he had a moment of regret. | |
| [39:05] | He doesn’t suffer from ASPD… | |
| [39:07] | Antisocial personality disorder. | |
| [39:09] | No. | |
| [39:11] | No, no. | |
| [39:13] | He’s just an old-fashioned rapist | |
| [39:16] | who suddenly realized | |
| [39:18] | that he might have killed his best friend, | |
| [39:20] | so he tried to stop the bleeding. | |
| [39:22] | Realized that wasn’t going to work, | |
| [39:24] | so he wiped the murder weapon, | |
| [39:27] | and left Tally passed out on the bed. | |
| [39:31] | So that when she came to, | |
| [39:33] | confronted with her brother’s slain body, | |
| [39:37] | and having no memory of what happened | |
| [39:38] | due to the flunitrazepam, | |
| [39:40] | she’d be forced to carry around the knowledge | |
| [39:44] | that she might have done this. | |
| [39:46] | That it was her fault, | |
| [39:49] | her doing, | |
| [39:51] | her crime. | |
| [39:54] | But she didn’t. | |
| [39:57] | She didn’t do it. | |
| [39:59] | Tally is simply just another victim, and-and… | |
| [40:02] | what an obscene joke that is. | |
| [40:05] | You know, the person responsible for this crime | |
| [40:08] | is trusting that you, the jury, | |
| [40:11] | will lean on your own preconceived notions | |
| [40:14] | on what it means to be a sociopath, | |
| [40:17] | what it means to be devoid of emotion, | |
| [40:20] | what it means to be mentally ill. | |
| [40:23] | The killer’s counting on it. | |
| [40:26] | And so is the A.D.A. | |
| [40:30] | But Tally and I know you know better. | |
| [40:33] | In fact, she’s betting her life on it. | |
| [40:36] | Thank you. | |
| [40:43] | Has the jury reached a verdict? | |
| [40:45] | We have, Your Honor. | |
| [40:48] | We, the jury, find the defendant, | |
| [40:50] | Tally North… | |
| [40:52] | not guilty of the murder of Torin North. | |
| [40:58] | It’s okay. | |
| [41:00] | It’s about you. | |
| [41:05] | So what happens now? | |
| [41:08] | I found something | |
| [41:11] | that I’d like you to consider. | |
| [41:13] | It’s a residential facility. | |
| [41:15] | No locks. You can leave any time you want. | |
| [41:17] | Just sign yourself out. | |
| [41:20] | It’s all in your control. | |
| [41:22] | But you have a room there. | |
| [41:23] | Everything is set and ready for you, | |
| [41:26] | and if it’s not the right fit, we’ll find you something else. | |
| [41:29] | It’s what your brother wanted for you… | |
| [41:33] | To get back to that sense of feigned normalcy. | |
| [41:36] | Feigned normalcy. | |
| [41:38] | Something we can all aspire to. | |
| [41:40] | You know, when you left me all those years ago, | |
| [41:44] | I understood. | |
| [41:46] | I didn’t like it, but.. | |
| [41:49] | I understood. | |
| [41:50] | And I also felt, strongly, somehow, | |
| [41:53] | that… you weren’t really gone forever. | |
| [41:59] | And you weren’t. | |
| [42:04] | Thank you for being there. | |
| [42:12] | Tally… | |
| [42:14] | thank you for saying that. | |
| [42:18] | I’m just messing with you. | |
| [42:20] | So where’s this place | |
| [42:22] | you want me to try? | |
| [42:25] | Well… | |
