"They're gonna walk." "I know it." "No one knows, Danny." "Tell me the truth." "Please!" "Tell me what you think." "At the end of the day, it all comes down to consent." "Juries want to hear about strangers with knives, not schoolboys with condoms." "Ain't there nothin' you can do?" "They've gotta go down for what they did to Anna." "Unless one of them changes thr r plea to guilty... and that isn't gonna happen..." "it could go either way." "So if one of them said they was guilty, they'd all go down?" "Most likely, yes." "Are you sure?" "What aren't you telling me, Danny?" "I tried to stop him, but he wouldn't listen." "Reece said, "She ain't screamin', is she?" "She ain't struggling'." "She's enjoying it."" "But she wasn't enjoying it, was she?" "( Crying ) He told me they do it all the time... get a girl, share her around." "That ain't right." "It's meant to be one-on-one, isn't it, with a girl you really like." "Did you tell them that?" "I told Reece." "I said they were hurting her, I said they had to let her go." "What did he say?" "He laughed." "Called me a pussy for caring about her feelings." "I tried to leave, but he had the gun." "He said that one was blank, the rest are real." "You must have been very frightened." "What did he do with the gun?" "He pointed it at me." "Said I had to do what he wanted or he'd shoot me for real." "And what did he want you to do, Danny?" "I need you to tell the court what Reece wanted you to do." "He said everyone in the room had to do it" "So there weren't no witnesses, so we was all the same." "So you were all equally guilty and, therefore, wouldn't grass on each other?" "That's right." "So we can be very clear," "Reece instructed you to have sexual intercourse with Anna?" "I told him I couldn't, but he put the gun in my back." "What did you do?" "She just lay there, her face turned away." "She never even looked at me once." "You gotta understand," "I liked her, I really liked her." "What did you do, Danny?" "( Crying )" "I did what he said..." "I raped Anna, too." "I'm so sorry... ( Crying ) I'm so sorry." "( Sniffle )" "COURT CLERK:" "In the case of Callum Morden, on the charge of rape, how do you find the defendant?" "JURY FOREWOMAN:" "Guilty." "In the case of Garrod Evans, on the charge of rape, how do you find the defendant?" "FOREWOMAN:" "Guilty." "In the case of Reece Leighwood, on the charge of rape, how do you find the defendant?" "FOREWOMAN:" "Guilty." "JUDGE:" "Reece Leighwood," "Garrod Evans and Callum Morden, you have been found guilty of rape." "Because of your age, I have no choice but to ask for pre-sentence reports." "But be in no doubt, your offense is a grave one... you will go to prison." "BARTENDER:" "Is that one or two, mate?" "Reece Leighwood got six years." "The other two got four." "What about Danny?" "Reynolds knocked off a year for the guilty plea, two for the gun in the back, gave him twelve months." "You happy with that?" "The drugs mule up for sentencing before us got 15 years for smuggling a few bags of cocaine." "They get one-to-six for group-raping a 14-year-old." "That's a hefty sentence, coming from Reynolds." "You did well." "At least Anna Russo can try and put it all behind her now." "( Laughing ) Excellent." "( Anna laughs )" "Sync and corrections by APOLLO"
