"He's locked the door" " I'm afraid he's gonna hurt himself." "I can't believe the cops accused him of raping somebody?" "He wasn't making any sense." "He just kept saying that he didn't want to go to jail." "Mike?" "It's Nick Morelli." "Your mom called me." "She's worried about you." "Mike?" "How long has it been since you've heard anything?" "I don't know, maybe five minutes." "Nick?" "Mike, slow down." "(siren wailing in distance) Just slow down." "That could be an ambulance, Mike." "Now, just tell me what's going on." "I didn't rape anybody, Nick." "Okay, now, why would the police think that you raped anybody?" "Just tell me." "Mike?" "I was walking home from Desi's, and they came flying up, then they threw me against the car, and they said that the guy had a red hoodie just like mine, and they kept asking me why I" "did it, and he went for his cuffs, and then I just ran." "O-Okay, nothing that's happened can't be fixed, but we got to deal with the situation right here, Mike;" "the police are coming." "They're not gonna believe me." "Mike, they will listen to you." "I am here, I will protect you, I'll take care of it-- don't worry about it." "Mike, put that gun away." "What are you doing?" "!" "Put the gun down!" "May, now, go in the bathroom, and lock yourself..." "Put that gun..." "Go now, May!" "Mike, you got to give me that gun." "Mike, give me that gun." "I can't go back to jail." "Give it to me." "The police are" "I didn't do any... gonna be here soon, and as soon as they get here, you're not" "(knocking) gonna look good with a gun-- now, give me the damn gun!" "Police!" "Open the door!" "Give it..." "Give me the gun!" "Gun!" "Gun!" "All right, all right, all right!" "On the ground!" "This is my client!" "We are not resisting arrest!" "Here's the gun!" "Face down on the ground now!" "Face down!" "All right, in my suit pocket, there's a business card." "I'm an attorney!" "Hold on, hold on." "I know him;" "let him up." "MIKE:" "Nick, you got to help me, okay?" "He invokes his Fifth Amendment rights." "Hey, Morelli, what do you call a defense lawyer holding a gun?" "What?" "Justifiable homicide." "Hilarious." "It won't be, next time." "The Defenders" " Season 1, episode 12 "Nevada v. Wayne"" "Now, you've known Mike since he was 12?" "Oh, yeah, yeah." "Played shortstop on a Little League team that Pete and I sponsored." "Then five years later, the mother called me and he got busted for possession." "Wow." "And where's his dad?" "He ran." "He was gone before I met the boy." "Here he is." "How you doing?" "What happened?" "Nothing." "I'm fine." "You didn't answer me." "We're well past capacity in here." "Things happen." "Yeah, well, not to this kid." "If I see one more scratch on him," "I'm gonna depose every one of you guys wearing a badge." "Are you all right?" "I'm fine." "Guy sucker-punched me." "All right, this is Lisa, my associate." "She's gonna run us through the facts of the case." "All right, the police report says that the victim was asleep in her apartment and woke up when the attack started at 10:17 p.m." "She called to report the rape after the attacker had left at 11:14 p.m. I was home till after 10:00-- my mom can prove that." "We were watching TV, and I told her I was gonna go out for a while." "She told me to make sure that I double-locked the door, and I left." "Well, that helps." "Well, it's a start, but a mother sticking up for her son-- that's not the strongest alibi." "What did you do after you left?" "I was at Desi's the rest of the night." "Desi." "And when did you get there, and when did you leave?" "10:30." "Left after midnight." "I was walking home when the cops jacked me up." "We're gonna need Desi's full name and number." "Is my mom here yet?" "Your mom?" "Yeah, she's here." "You'll be able to see her." "Now, let's finish up." "She'll come in." "Nick?" "Yeah?" "Everything's gonna be okay, right?" "Yeah, Mike, it's gonna be fine." "Hey, May." "I don't want you to freak out, but, uh, he's banged up a little bit." "Oh, my God, what happened?" "Well, an inmate attacked him." "But I already put the guards on notice." "If anything else happens, he goes right to protective custody." "(exhales) Oh, my God." "Now, Mike said he was at home with you until after 10:00 last night watching TV?" "Yes." "He was." "We were watching TV, and then he went out." "Do you remember what you said to him?" "Well, I always tell him to double-lock the doors when he goes out." "Okay, May, go see your son."

"Sustained." "Objection, Your Honor." "Non-responsive." "JUDGE:" "Sustained." "The witness will limit herself to answering the questions." "I have custody." "He had visitation."

"Mr. Nemerov, you quit your sales job at Petersen's Used Carland two days before you were apprehended at the airport, is that correct?" "It was time for a change." "COLE:" "So it wasn't because you had no intentions of ever returning from Russia?" "No, no, no." "You stated earlier that Miss Lazine gave you permission to take your son to Russia." "Yes." "Uh, to attend the birthday of my grandmother." "Her 90th." "Talk directly to the jury;" "that's a defense lawyer trick." "This guy is good." "I just wanted my son to see his great-grandmother before she died." "She said it would make her life..." "complete." "(scoffs)" "Hm." "I was asleep." "Um..."

"It was, um... it was dark, but I could tell that he had a... he had sort of a baby face, 'cause he, uh... no scruff, you know?" "I could..." "I could feel him rub against me when he was as he was raping me." "Do you see the man who sexually assaulted you in this courtroom today?" "Yes." "Him." "He raped me." "No, I didn't." "Order." "I didn't." "She's wrong." "I didn't..." "Mike, stop." "Control your client, Counselor." "Stop it." "Stop." "Your Honor, we're terribly sorry." "(Lona sighs)" "The State rests." "Mr. Morelli."

"But a terrible crime has been alleged." "Miss McKerin, I'm gonna show you the police video of your identification of my client, and then" "I'm gonna ask you a few questions." "Are you gonna be okay with that?" "Okay." "Thank you." "Okay... if you see the man who assaulted you, just circle his picture with the pen." "Take your time." "MAN:" "It's okay." "Can I take a break?" "Yeah, sure you can." "I'm just really tired." "It's fine." "No problem." "Do you remember asking for a break?" "Yes." "I-I had been up for so long." "Absolutely, absolutely, I understand." "But you resumed a half hour later, is that correct?" "Yes." "Okay." "Okay, if you see the man who attacked you, just circle his picture with the red pen." "I have the one from before." "LONA:" "This one." "MAN:" "You sure?" "LONA:" "Yeah." "Okay." "Miss McKerin, is this the... lineup that you circled?" "Yes." "Were you aware that this was not the original lineup you were shown?" "What?" "You were shown two different photo lineups that night, and the only person that appeared in both... was my client." "You had no idea that there were two, did you?" "No." "You were unable to identify my client in the first one." "Is that correct?" "Yes." "But you could see him in the second one." "Yes." "Is it possible... that that's because you remembered him from the first photo lineup and not the attack?" "No." "No, it has to be him." "Wh..." "When I pointed him out, they told me not to be afraid because he was in jail already." "Now, I-I know this is very tough for you, but I need you to take a moment right now and just think." "In light of these new facts, can you say, for certain, that it was my client who sexually assaulted you that night?" "Objection, asked and answered." "Overruled." "You may answer the question." "I'm not sure." "Miss McKerin... you need to be sure." "(quietly):" "I don't... (sighs)" "I don't know." "No further questions, Your Honor." "Okay, Mary." "We are all clear that you do not belive Kelli." "Now, without using the term "micro-expression"" "or anything else you might have learned while watching 48 Hours Mystery, can you please tell us why?" "She seems like a bitch." "(others groaning) Aw, come on!" "She thinks so, too." "I didn't say it like that!" "Okay." "Kelli... was a terrible wife." "She was judgmental, she was withholding, she was snippy, and..." "Alexei, all the cheating aside, seems great." "He's-he's funny, he's personable, he's good-looking." "Both of them love Sasha with all their hearts." "Do you both agree with that?" "Right, Mary?" "Yes." "Talia?" "Yeah." "Great." "None of that has anything to do with our verdict." "Here we go."

"(knocks) Hey." "What, um... what is this?" "I can't see with your fingers in the way." "It is a bill from our corporate card with charges for room service and spa treatments at the Beverly Hills Hotel." "That was from a year ago!" "Don't change the subject." "I was at a legal seminar in Los Angeles-- what, are you going through the files trying to find something on Nicky?" "You went with Jess." "She's my wife!"

"Well, Lona was a student at USLV, but she dropped out... after accusing another student of sexually assaulting her." "How come we don't know about this?" "No charges were filed." "School handled it internally, and during the hearing, it came out that both of the students were under the influence of alcohol, and the school dismissed the charges, then she dropped out." "Do we have the name of the guy she accused?" "Well, we can't use this in court." "Well, what do you mean?" "The allegation goes to the accused's credibility." "Look, I know this is your first rape case, Lisa..." "That has nothing to do with it, okay?" "This is about attacking the victim." "The jury needs to know if the victim lied about a past sexual assault." "Yeah, well, she's not lying now, 'cause they did a rape kit on her." "And our guy didn't do it." "Yeah, and Lona already admitted on the stand that she wasn't sure" "Mike was the guy who attacked her." "So we already have our reasonable doubt." "Okay, Lisa..." "let's play this out." "What now?" "We drop our defense and just... hope the jury goes along with us?" "Well, what do you want?" "We're just supposed to go ahead and destroy this girl's reputation?" "You think I want to do this?" "Huh?" "Is that what you think?" "I have no choice, Lisa." "(footsteps approaching)" "You were a student at USLV, is that correct?" "Yes." "And you just dropped out?" "PROSECUTOR:" "Objection, relevance." "Withdrawn." "Miss McKerin, have you ever made a claim for a sexual assault before?" "Objection, the question introduces inadmissible prejudicial evidence." "It goes to credibility, Your Honor." "I'll allow, but you are on a tightrope, Counselor." "Have you?" "Yes." "In college." "Was there an investigation into that claim?" "Yes, there was." "And what was the outcome of that investigation?" "The administrative board ruled that the charges were false." "They said that I was lying." "I wasn't." "Thank you." "The court will take a ten-minute recess." "(gavel bangs)" "Hey." "Hey." "How you doing?" "I'm okay." "You want to go over anything before you testify?" "No." "She's gonna be all right."

"We got a problem." "Desi's gone; my mother has to testify-- she's my only alibi." "Mike, I-I can't put your mother on the stand if I know she's gonna commit perjury." "What are you gonna do?" "I'm gonna let the defense rest." "The victim's testimony is suspect." "Is that enough to win?" "PETE:" "Well, it helps that there's no physical evidence, but there's no way to know for sure." "(exhales)" "Put me on the stand." "What are you gonna say, Mike?" "I mean, your alibi is based on your mother's lie that she saw you leave." "But the jury doesn't know that." "What?" "Well, the truth doesn't matter." "You're a defense lawyer-- your job is to win." "So you got to put me on that stand so I can convince the jury that I'm innocent just like I did with you." "If you don't, it's ineffective counsel." "I get a new trial anyway." "Guard?" "Just do your job." "I'm not going to jail for this slut." "Nick!" "Hey!" "Hey!" "Nick!" "Nick, come on!" "Guard!" "Guard!" "GUARD:" "Come on." "(panting)" "I looked that kid dead through the eye, and I can't believe I didn't see through his act." "Well, you've known him since he was 12-- you wanted to believe." "Aw, I'm smarter than that, Pete." "Okay, well, what now, Nick?" "'Cause if you put him on the stand and he's lying, you're committing a felony." "You got to withdraw from the case." "Yeah." "No, we're in the middle of the trial." "No way in hell the judge lets me out." "(groans softly)" "I can't believe it." "I made that victim... doubt herself." "I practically called her a liar." "There is another option." "Mike wants to testify, you let him testify on the narrative." "Step back and let him tell his own story." "And if Nick doesn't question Mike on direct and he doesn't object during cross, the ADA will know something's up." "Let him sink himself." "Why don't we save time?" "Put "I'm a lying rapist"" "on a sign around his neck." "No, Nick, let him do it himself." "Get out of the way." "That's what you got to do." "No." "We're defense attorneys-- we defend." "That's what I got to do." "JUDGE:" "Is the defense ready to call its first witness?" "Yes, Your Honor." "Well, Counselor?" "Just do your job." "NICK:" "Mr. Wayne, can you tell the court what happened the night of this alleged offense?" "I ate some dinner with my mom, and after dinner, we both watched some TV until a little after 10:00." "I told her I was going out for a while," "I gave her a kiss good-bye, and I-I left." "Is there anything else you'd like to tell the court?" "MIKE:" "Well, after I left the house," "I walked to my friend Desi's apartment." "Got there around 10:30, and I sat on his couch and played some video games." "I left right after midnight, and I was accosted by some police officers." "I have no more, Your Honor." "Thank you." "Your witness." "Mr. Wayne, you said you sat on Desi's couch and played video games that night." "Is that correct?" "Yes." "Where was the couch?" "In his living room." "And where was the television?" "(chuckles) Across from the couch." "So... you couldn't have been at the victim's house sexually assaulting her, because you were at Desi's playing video games?" "Yes." "Mr. Wayne, this is a photo taken at Desi Williams' apartment after his death." "Mr. Wayne... can you explain how you play video games on a television that isn't there?" "Mm." "Zoey." "It's go time." "Oh!" "Sorry." "Wait." "This isn't my purse." "PETE:" "Huh." "Petersen's Used Carland." "I hope you're aware that jury tampering is a serious allegation, Mr. Kaczmarek?" "I am, Your Honor, but during voir dire, she made a point about how she had to take the bus because she didn't have a car." "Was I the only one paying attention?" "And you're sure that the key ring was from the defendant's previous place of employment?" "Petersen's Used Carland-- a name that bad is hard to forget."
