" You called her dozens of Times." "Well, me and Vicky used her place sometimes." "I called Josie to set it up." "Right, but you never met her." "So how'd your DNA wind up inside her?" "Whoever's setting me up put it there." "Well, how did they get your sperm?" "I mean, you just leave it lying around?" "I wish I knew." "Then I could prove I was telling the truth." "I believe Linus." "I don't think he slept with Josie." "A man's DNA doesn't just pop up inside a woman without his participation." "He's talked to us twice without a lawyer." "He's not hiding anything." "Linus is basically a nursemaid." "He stays home with Tessa." "Now, why would that piss somebody off so much that they'd wanna try to send him to prison?"

"But I'll tell you, if our DA has to get a court order, she's gonna want to open a whole grand jury investigation in your operation." "But I'm sure you have valid documentation for all your weapons, right?" "We do thorough background checks." "Psych screenings." "We don't hire nut-jobs." "What about the wash-outs?"

"Freeze!" "Hands up!" "Hands up!" "Up!" "All right, let's try that again!" "Walter Inman, you are under arrest for the murder of Vicky Riggs and Josie Post." "And for assaulting one of New York's finest finest." "Found these boots in your closet." "The soles are a perfect match... to the boot prints at both crime scenes." "It's a popular shoe." "You're a pretty smart guy, Walter." "You really had us stumped, but you made one mistake." "You left the chain latched on Josie Post's front door." "That's how we knew Linus McKellen didn't kill her." "And that's what led us to your big messy boot prints." "Now where did you get Linus' semen?" "Did you two have little 'don't ask don't tell' thing going?" "Walter, why'd you do it?" "I don't know what you're talking about." "But if you get any closer..." "I'll jam my knee in your balls so hard, you'll have to spit them out." "You didn't think you could pull a confession out of Inman, did you?" "I don't get it." "G.I. Jerk wants revenge against Tessa." "So he kills Vicky and Josie?" "Why not just murder Tessa?" "Because he wanted her to suffer." "That's why he framed her husband." "The thing that I don't understand, is how Inman got Linus' DNA inside Josie Post." "Maybe he was shadowing Linus, saw he was having an affair with Vicky and stole a used condom." "That sets him up for 50-to-life." "I miss the days when revenge just meant shooting someone." "And I miss the days when I never had to say" ""I ran more DNA tests on that semen."" " Sample from Josie Post?" " Yep." "I found amylase mixed in with Linus McKellen's sperm." " Amylase, that's in saliva, isn't it?" " It's an enzyme." "It didn't match Linus' DNA or Josie's." "So I ran it against the DNA sample from his coat." "Tessa's blood from her nosebleed." "It's Tessa's saliva mixed in with Linus' DNA." "She performed oral sex on her husband and saved the sperm?" "Then she gave it to Walter Inman to plant in Josie Post." "Inman wasn't trying to get back at Tessa." "She hired him to frame her husband." "What possible reason would I have to frame my husband?" "Revenge." "Your husband cheated on you, and you wanted him to pay." "I didn't know Linus was having an affair until you told me." "All those calls between Linus and Vicky." "You were never suspicious?" "Look, even if my client had an inkling, your theory that she hired a professional assassin to kill her husband's mistress and then to frame him is ridiculous." "Not as ridiculous as her behavior." "You performed oral sex on your husband to get his DNA." "Incorrect." "It's the only way he and I have to be intimate." "My client and her husband engaged in sexual activity." "So her saliva was on him." "So when Linus had sex with Josie Post," "Tessa's DNA went along for the ride." "Okay." "There's one problem with that theory." "Linus didn't have sex with Josie." " Well, so he says." " Why would he lie?" "He already admitted to one affair." "Why deny another?" "Even if he had ten affairs, I would never hurt Linus." " I love him." " And you didn't want him to leave." "You'd rather see your husband behind bars than with another woman." "I need him." " I couldn't survive without him." " That's enough, we're leaving." "Unless you have enough evidence to arrest Tessa?" "No, I didn't think so." "I need Walter Inman to flip on Tessa." "He won't talk without a deal." "Well, I'd hate to give him one." "He planned and executed the murders of two innocent women." "And got paid big bucks to do it." "His daughter Phoebe is a freshman at Columbia." "He paid her tuition in cash." "So he's using blood money to put his kid through college." "Where's he keeping the money?" "College said it was wired from an account in Grand Cayman." "Rikers Island Monday, January 23" "Ever heard of the son of Sam law, Walter?" "You're not allowed to profit from illegal activities." "I haven't done anything illegal." "You can try and prove that at trial, but until you do, all of your accounts have been frozen." "Including the one in Grand Cayman." "How will Phoebe pay for school?" "If I confess... will you leave my money alone?" "You testify against Tessa McKellen, and I'll allow you to transfer enough money to your daughter to pay for her education." "No deal." "Okay, fine." "I'll tell Phoebe to pack her bags." "Guard!" " I'll tell you what you need." "I'm listening." "Tessa came to me after Silverhammer fired me." "She thought her husband was cheating on her, so she hired me to trail him." "I followed him to two stripper's apartments." "Vicky and Josie." "I told Tessa he was banging both of them." "You were wrong, he wasn't sleeping with Josie." "So you killed a girl for no reason at all." "You do any other jobs for Tessa?" "No hits." "A little BE." "What did you steal?" "Some stuff from a lab." "What stuff?" "Viruses." "Bacteria." "Strepto-pneumo something was one." "Why did she want that?" "I thought she was gonna whack her husband, but she used it on herself." "I saw her inject that crap right into her arm." " Can you prove this?" " Yeah." "She gave me a shopping list of all the stuff she needed from the lab." "In her own handwriting." "Give me the list and you've got a deal." "Hey, put that down." "What are you doing?" "I need my insulin." " With a meningitis chaser?" " Leave her alone." "Linus, they're taking my insulin." "Your wife has been making herself sick." "Injecting herself with all kinds of germs." "That is disgusting." "Well, Inman gave you up." "You're under arrest." " What are you saying?" " She hired a hit man to frame you." "Linus, help me." "I, I, I, I'm gonna faint." "Arrest me, it's my fault." "I paralyzed my wife." "I had an affair, I made her sick." "She wasn't too sick to plan two murders." "I need my insulin, please." "Oh, you'll get that at central booking." "From everything that you're telling me, it seems to me that Tessa has a factitious disorder." "Munchausen's syndrome." "She's making herself sick to get attention?" "She was in a nearly fatal car accident and she does have diabetes." "The syringe that Olivia and Elliot took from her contained insulin." "But my guess is that she just became addicted to all the attention she gets being sick." "Well, it's one thing to play sick to get attention, and another to inject yourself with streptococcus bacteria." " I mean, she could have died." " People with Munchausen's often do." "I once had a patient who used a catheter to pump egg whites into her kidneys to cause renal failure." "She was about to be on the transplant list when we caught her." "But Tessa knows the difference between right and wrong." "That's true." "She hired that hit man, and she planned those murders to punish her husband for cheating on her." "Once he was in prison, he'd never leave her for another woman." "A jury's never gonna let her get away with murder." "Oh, a jury's never gonna hear this case." " You come to plead her out?" " No, no." "I came to give you this." "Not guilty by reason of mental disease or defect." "Your client knew exactly what she was doing." "My client is a very sick woman." "And I think after your doctor examines her, he will agree that she is not competent to stand trial." "How many times have you been hospitalized?" "Too many to count." "And what have you been admitted for?" "This year?" "Pneumonia." "Uh, pyelonephritis." "Septicemia." "And, um... meningitis." "Wow." "You look pretty healthy for someone who's been so sick. / Thank you." "The paralysis weakens my immune system." "Makes the body more susceptible to bacterial infections." "Really?" "You know, some doctors might think that you have Munchausen's." "You know what that is?" "I'm not making myself sick." "Who would ever wanna endure what I've had to go through?" "Good question." "You're beautiful, you're rich." "You have a great career." "I think that you crave attention so much that you made your husband into your servant." "My husband loves me." "Your husband had an affair." "Vicky seduced him." "That's why you hired Inman to kill her." "I haven't seen Inman since the Silverhammer trial." "He says that you gave him a list of bacterial cultures" " that you wanted him to steal." " He is a liar." "The list is in your handwriting." "He was in special ops." "He has access to the best forgers in the world." "So you're saying that Inman's persecuting you?" "He hates me." "I lost the case and now he's taking it out on me and my husband." "If I wasn't stuck in this chair, I would kill him myself." "Competency Hearing Part 46 Wednesday, January 25" "Nothing in my exam of Tessa McKellen suggests that she's incompetent to stand trial." "She has no cognitive impairment." "She's responsive to questions." "And she clearly understands the serious nature of the charges against her." "But in your report, you made a diagnosis of a factitious disorder, Munchausen's." "Doesn't that mean that she's mentally ill?" "That means that she has a psychiatric disorder." "But that has no bearing on her incompetence." "Her Munchausen's doesn't impede her ability to assist in her own trial." "But wouldn't the Munchausen's diagnosis itself make a good defense?" "Tessa denies that she has Munchausen's." "She maintains that all her illnesses were caused by a weakened immune system." "In other words, she can't admit, even to herself," " that she's made herself sick." " That's right." "Despite overwhelming evidence that all her diseases have been self-induced." "Tessa's too invested in assuming the sick role." "She won't give up the attention she gets." "So you're saying that Tessa has a valid diagnosis of Munchausen's." "Which would make a valid defense." "But she refuses to use that defense." "How can you say that she's competent to stand trial?" "What I'm saying is..." "Get a medic!" "Emergency in part 46." "The seizure was self-induced." "Tessa McKellen intentionally OD'd on insulin." "Proving my point." "She is not fit to stand trial." "Your honor, she is manipulating the court." "She's faking illness to get sympathy and dodge a life sentence." "My client is sick, your honor." "She cannot stop." "Whenever she's under stress, she will make herself ill." "Well, then, gee, why don't we let her off before she injects herself with hiv?" "Nobody is talking about letting her off." "But I'm concerned about another incident like today." "I don't think Mrs. McKellen is fit to stand trial at the moment." "She needs psychiatric treatment." "We agree, your honor." "And we ask that because of the rarity of this condition and her paralysis, that she be given treatment in a private hospital, which, of course, my client will pay for." "That sounds reasonable." "And when she gets out, who's she gonna kill next?" "That's enough, counselor." "My client will surrender in the morning, your honor." "Her bail is continued and your request is granted." "Your honor, don't fall for this." "Don't question the ruling of this court, Ms. Novak." "If and when the defendant is well enough to stand trial, she will." "Until then, she will receive the treatment she needs." "I have a bulletproof case against Tessa, but I can't put her on trial so long as she's hanging out at some cushy private mental hospital." "At least she'll be in some locked ward where she won't hurt herself or anybody else." "Yeah, but she belongs in prison with her hit man buddy Inman." "Is there any way to change Petrovsky's mind?" "Show her that Tessa's a manipulative calculating bitch who planned this defense meticulously." "Just like the murders." "Maybe it's not the judge we have to convince." "Tessa is sick." "She didn't know what she was doing." "She's getting away with two murders." "The court said she's not responsible." "Your wife is using her illness to manipulate you." "To make you think that she's a victim." "She is a victim." "You have no idea what it's like for her." "Her neurologists say she's in constant pain." "Do they also say that excuses her behavior?" "I don't know, I haven't talked to them in a couple years." "Well, why not?" "You do everything else for her." " Why haven't you talked to them?" " Tessa doesn't like me to go with her." "She says it reminds her of the accident." "So you have no idea whether she's gotten better." "She says she hasn't." "If you haven't talked to the doctors, how do you know that's true?" "Linus, what are they doing here?" "Linus?" "Linus, what are you doing?" "Look, it's a miracle." "She can swim." "And she can walk, too." "Linus." "Let me explain." "Don't." "Don't!" "All those years, I took care of you." "I did everything for you because I loved you." "I'm sorry." "I love you." "But I'm sick." "I need your help." "You are sick." "You're on your own." "No, don't leave me." "Don't leave me!" "No." "What's gonna happen to me now?" "Who's gonna take care of me?" "The warden will." "You'll never be alone in prison."
