"?" "for the murder of Detective Myers." "Veeder was acquitted." "Right after his trial, a witness we'd been looking for, whose testimony would've helped convict Veeder turned up dead." "That would be Kellie Lawson." "Yes, she was one of the girls Veeder was pimping from his wife's youth shelter." "We do good work here." "We're giving these girls a fresh start, helping them find their first job." "What do they do for you?" "Detective Myers had been trying to help her get away from Veeder." "And she knew about Myers' murder?" "That's why she was killed." "We tried Veeder for that murder, too." "He was convicted." "Guilty... of murder." "Once that happened, he made a deal to give up his accomplice, Peter Durkin." "Conlon's campaign manager in his run for Attorney General." "Whoa, whoa, I made him stick around and lend a hand." "Why should I do the dirty work all by myself?" "We arrested Durkin." "He told Conlon he'd be committing political suicide." "Said he knew where all the bodies were buried." "Conlon indicted him anyway." "My job comes first, Pete." "Durkin's out on bail, house arrest." "We're negotiating a plea agreement with him." "What are you offering?" "Twenty." "He tells us everything he knows about Veeder's activities, the money laundering, the sex ring, including the names of every man Veeder pandered his girls to." "Could be quite a list." "Durkin said there are some very big names on it." "Judges, politicians." "The media is salivating." "Everybody's waiting for the other shoe to drop." "Who's going with you?" "Detective Hahn." "Where's the meeting?" "Durkin's apartment." "Not his lawyer's office?" "No, last minute switch." "They want to keep the media from sniffing it out." "They're in a frenzy as it is." "In that case, you better go out the back way-- elude the paparazzi." "See you later." "Excuse me." "Excuse me." "I know they're expecting us." "You're not going to try the door?" "Let me go first." "Hello?" "Indianapolis PD." "It's Maureen Scofield." "Good Lord." "Call 911." "This is Maureen Scofield from the Prosecutor's Office." "I'd like to report a shooting." "Yes, 1812 Lancaster Place,penthouse apartment." "Do we need an ambulance?" "No." "No, just send the police." "I'm going to have a look around." "Thank you." "That was fast." "Annabeth, they've been shot." "Who's been shot?" "Durkin and his lawyer, Simms." "They're dead." "Okay, I'll tell Conlon, and I'm on my way." "Are you okay?" "Not so much." "It's like they've been executed." "Executed, what do you mean?" "Maureen?" "Maureen?" "Maureen?" "Maureen." "Maureen?" "This is Maureen Scofield, I'm not available..." "Capture:" "FRM@ Sync:" "FRM@Î´Ðø´ýÍê" "Annabeth." "Hey, Matt, this is my boss, James Conlon." "Matt Ewing, Homicide." "I called Matt, I wanted someone we know handling the case." "It's bad." "Oh, God, Maureen." "Looks like Durkin and his lawyer were executed." "Forced to lie down and then shot once each in the back of the head." "That's what she said, "executed."" "Who knew about the meeting?" "Just us," "Durkin and his attorney." "I think we can assume that Durkin was the target and the killer didn't expect to find anyone else here." "We're looking for witnesses and we'll review the security video." "Detective?" "We found this in a grate in the floor." "A shell casing." "Must've rolled in." "Maybe we just got lucky." "I'll go walk this through the lab myself." "I'd appreciate that, Detective." "I'll call you." "Annabeth..." "I'll be all right." "I need to get back to the office." "I need to call her father." "Annabeth and I will focus on motive." "Who would want to kill Durkin and why?" "You two need to work with Detective Ewing." "Concentrate on physical evidence and finding the shooter." "Think Veeder had something to do with this?" "Veeder had every reason in the world to want to keep Durkin alive." "His plea bargain depended on it." "Well, given who Durkin was and what he might have been about to reveal..." "And how they were killed." "Had to be a professional hit." "The shooter is just the first step." "I want whoever hired him." "About the shooter..." "Here he is coming through the lobby." "Could be our guy." "See how he keeps his head down?" "He knows the camera's there." "Comes back out eight minutes later." "After shooting Durkin and Simms." "Maybe." "Now watch." "Practically bump into each other." "Skip ahead one more time." "Three minutes later, he's back." "This time he's in a hurry." "It's almost as though he knew she was going up to meet Durkin." "Recognized her as she came in?" "Maybe came back just to make sure, tie up loose ends." "Okay, last time." "Back downstairs in four minutes." "Now he's rattled." "He hears the sirens." "He knows the cavalry's on the way." "We're going to get you, you son of a bitch." "Durkin's dead, along with one of my colleagues and two other people." "Trust me, I'm not in the mood to fool around." "We were prepared to honor the plea agreement, Annabeth, but it's our position that the People should do the same." "Mr. Veeder's testimony is no longer required." "Our sentencing recommendation will be life without parole." "It was your responsibility to get him to trial in one piece." "We couldn't have foreseen this." "You couldn't find your forehead with a map and a flashlight." "The guy was connected all the way up," "City Hall and beyond." "Anyone could have foreseen this." "Shut up, Chris." "If Mr. Veeder tells you everything he knows about Peter Durkin his associates, his activities?" "I would be willing to listen." "Same plea deal." "Same, 30 years for Kellie Lawson's ?" "." "I tell you about Pete and that's it." "You also tell me about your criminal activities:" "the money laundering, the prostitution, the robbery, the drug trafficking." "Full disclosure, we want to know everything." "Every politician who was involved, every businessman, every cop." "You sure you want to know everything?" "He'll need immunity from additional charges." "Done." "What about my wife?" "Are you admitting she's involved through the shelter in prostitution and money laundering?" "I'm not saying anything like that." "I'm just saying I want her protected." "I'm not going to promise you I won't prosecute third parties who've been involved in your criminal enterprises, that includes the guys in your unit and your wife." "Guard!" "Then I can't tell you what I know." "Chris!" "Chris!" "I'll talk to him." "Maybe he'll come to his senses." "Thanks." "How are you holding up?" "Uh, yeah, I mean... you know, it's hard." "I know." "It's really hard." "I can't..." "I know..." "What am I going to do?" "I know." "What's his name?" "Wayne Thomas." "Without the hat and glasses." "Which we found in a trash can two blocks from the scene, along with a pair of leather gloves." "We got a print off the glasses." "He's in a rush, not thinking clearly, strips off the gloves, tosses the glasses and hat." "What do we know about this mutt?" "A lot of arrests, couple convictions, gun charge, armed robbery." "We have a last known address?" "Just got off the phone with his P.O." "What are you waiting for?" "I thought you guys might want to tag along." "Damn straight." "I'm looking for Annabeth Chase." "Reverend." "You must be Annabeth." "Yes." "This is..." "her office." "Yeah, I was just sorting through..." "Don't let me interrupt." "No, no, I'm done." "I just came from the coroner's." "I never thought I would see something like that." "My daughter laid out on a table." "It's a terrible thing to outlive your children." "I can't even imagine." "I'm so sorry." "Do you have children, Annabeth?" "Mm-hmm, a little girl." "I know that you and Maureen were close." "I thought so." "Sometimes, she's a..." "She was a very private person." "Mm-hmm." "I-I would have, uh..." "I wish that when we..." "I wish that we had..." "remained closer," "Maureen and I." "After her mother and I divorced... well, she didn't entirely approve of me or my choices." "She spoke very highly of you." "That's very kind of you." "I..." "I've made arrangements, uh..." "Friday at Greenmont." "You'll be giving the eulogy?" "Actually, I was hoping that you would." "I'll cover the back!" "You all right?" "It's my heart." "Go!" "Go!" "Ed!" "?" "Ed?" "You with me?" "Vest." "He got away." "I heard." "We flooded the media with his picture." "Somebody's bound to spot him." "IAB called." "They saw Thomas's name on the news and it rang a bell." "He was one of Veeder's confidential informants." "Who's their source?" "Brian Flynn." "Will he talk?" "You mean after I forced him to take the stand at Veeder's first trial and ruined his life?" "We could try." "What are you looking at?" "Ideas for my campaign." "But who am I kidding?" "My candidacy is over." "When your campaign manager is in cahoots with a dirty cop..." "You still got your day job." "Yeah, not much longer if the news media s anything to say about it." "They'll quit howling for your blood." "When?" "What?" "I just feel so guilty." "I had police protection while we were investigating Veeder, and Maureen..." "Maureen wasn't a target, Annabeth, you were." "Someone left her a message one night after we arrested Durkin." ""Back off, bitch."" "What?" "She asked me not to tell you." ""Back off," huh?" "Well, that's the last thing we're gonna do." "Nice spot, scenic." "You think I want to be seen talking to you?" "It's bad enough spilling my guts every day to the rat squad." "Look, I can understand why you won't want to talk to me." "Under any circumstances." "Which is why I brought him." "Brian." "Hi, Matt." "You know why we're here?" "I watch the news." "Wayne Thomas." "Ask Veeder." "Veeder's not talking." "Neither are the other guys in his unit." "Yeah, well, they're smart." "Come on, Brian, this is me." "Will you go away and never come back?" "We won't bother you again, you have my word." "Yeah, well, we know what that's worth." "Easy." "IAB said you told them Thomas is one of Veeder's CIs." "I don't know much." "Veeder was pretty secret with a lot of his business with the rest of us." "I remember he said that" "Thomas had a cousin runs a body and fender shop over on the south side." "You got a name?" "No." "Sorry." "Thank you." "I hope you find the guy." "The auto crimes just sent over a list." "Chop shops on the south side." "Must be a dozen." "The one we're looking for is owned by Wayne Thomas' cousin." "Nobody named Thomas." "Just give me the addresses, we'll check them all out." "I can narrow it down a little." "How?" "Half of these names are Russian." "His cousin can't be Russian?" "Wayne's an Indianapolis boy, born and bred." "Most of the rest are brothers." "You know that for a fact?" "Trust me." "Every guy on this list is either Russian or black, except one," "Mike Bernard, a.k.a. White Mike." "You're a pretty quick detective." "Yeah, not quick enough." "Wayne's my cousin, so?" "You seen him?" "Not since my daughter's christening." "How old's your daughter?" "She's five." "Wayne was in the penitentiary." "Then it's longer than I remember." "You been wrung up for auto theft." "I was a kid." "Receiving stolen property." "Entrapment." "We can shut this place down for inventory..." "Go right ahead." "Check on every part in here make sure nothing's stolen." "Knock yourself out." "Quit yanking my chain." "Hey, call off your dog." "We don't have time to fool around with you." "This... ain't right." "Let go of my cousin!" "I'll let you walk out of here." "I ain't walking no where." "I said let him go." "Lose the gun." "Hands where I can see them." "I'm taking the Charger, Mike." "Give me the cash box and your wallet, too." "You... move." "Hands up!" "Hands up!" "Put it in the car, Mike." "I'll make it up to you, cuz." "Get in." "Get in." "Get in." "No." "No." "I said get in!" "You all right?" "Yeah." "I think she'll stay down this time." "I look at her and I just think... what if?" "God." "I'm such a mess." "I just..." "I can't stop crying." "That's normal." "It's been a really hard year." "I, um..." "I met her father yesterday." "Maureen's?" "Yeah." "He's a preacher, Reverend Scofield." "You never met him before?" "No, she didn't really talk about him much." "She didn't really talk about herself much." "She was just so private." "He asked me to give the eulogy." "Wow." "I mean, I..." "I'm not sure I'll know what to say." "You will." "Just... speak from your heart." "I'll try." "What's going to happen to you?" "Desk duty, a lot of questions, a lot of paperwork." "Reinstated in a month." "I never fired my gun before... at a suspect." "First time." "What was that, a lucky shot?" "Practice, practice, practice." "Seriously." "It's one thing on the range, another on the street." "Does it bother you?" "It would bother me a lot more if I had missed." "Me, too." "Or if anything had happened to you." "Ballistics came back." "Gun matches, Thomas was the shooter, no question, all four victims." "What'd you pull off his cell?" "Ever hear of Diamond Park Associates?" "No." "Office downtown, Courier Building." "Swank." "Thomas called in repeatedly at ten minute intervals right after the shooting." "Somebody finally called him back about an hour later." "And after that?" "No further communication." "He was panicked about what went wrong, and when he finally talked to someone at Diamond Park, they told him to cool it." "What sort of firm is it?" "Real estate consultants, board of directors." "And?" "There's one name on there that doesn't belong, if it's the same Benny Boudreau." "Why not?" "He's a big-time drug dealer." "What's his story?" "The company's a front." "Boudreau is a very successful narcotics trafficker, and a semi-legit businessman." "According to Matt, Boudreau has been pretty untouchable over the years, and suspicion is, he has friends on the force." "Veeder." "It fits." "Thomas was Veeder's informant, and from the phone calls he made, we can assume he also worked for Boudreau." "So what's your theory?" "Say Boudreau hired Thomas to kill Durkin?" "Which he does, along with three other people." "If Boudreau and Veeder are doing business together, and Durkin knows all about it," "Boudreau has reason to worry when Durkin's arrested." "He knows Durkin's going to cave, so he has him hit." "We're going to need leverage on Boudreau before we can pick him up." "We need Veeder to talk." "I'm putting the deal back on the table." "You going to give his wife a free pass?" "If he'll talk about Thomas and Boudreau, I will." "Thomas was the go-between." "Through him, Boudreau tipped me off about rival dealers." "I'd bust them, rip them off." "Keep the money and sell the drugs back to Boudreau." "I give him a good price." "It worked out well for everyone." "Why would Boudreau want Durkin dead?" "He wouldn't." "We know Thomas was the shooter." "Forensics puts him at the scene." "No doubt, and no doubt Boudreau hired him, but Benny's just a broker,an intermediary." "He farmed it out to his guy Thomas." "Benny doesn't do his own wet work anymore." "Who hired him?" "Who knows?" "A lot of people sleeping easier now that Durkin's out of the picture." "You'll testify against Boudreau on the narcotics charges?" "That's part of the deal, isn't it?" "We also getsentence consideration on conspiracy to commit murder for hire?" "If he pleads guilty on the narcotics trafficking charges and testifies against whoever hired him to kill Peter Durkin." "Benny?" "Veeder." "Can't believe he gave me up." "Along with corroborating witnesses and tons of documentation." "He traded you for his wife, Mr. Boudreau." "Ah." "That I understand." "Who hired you, Mr. Boudreau?" "Tell her, Benny." "This is why we're here." "Philip Duches." "Know him?" "We've met." "He's a money launderer." "He owns a string of auto body repair shops." "Through which he launders his money." "Does he own White Mike's?" "As a matter of fact..." "And he put out the contract on Peter Durkin?" "Why?" "Don't know, didn't ask." "Why did he ask you to set it up?" "Duches and I do business." "He launders your drug money?" "Correct." "Did Chris Veeder do business with Duches, too?" "I introduced them, sorry to say." "Done for now?" "I'm done." "Say hi to Mr. Conlon for me." "You know him?" "Never met the man, but I'm supporting him for Attorney General." "I doubt he'll want your endorsement." "That's all right." "I've already given a lot to his campaign." "Through Durkin." "Hated to lose him." "Political campaign is an excellent mechanism for laundering money." "Sit down." "Tell you all about it." "Maybe we can knock a few more years off this sentence you're looking to lay on me." "To what do I owe the pleasure, Mr. Conlon?" "It has come to my attention that illegal contributions may have been made to my campaign through my late campaign manager, Peter Durkin." "Is this the result of your investigation into his murder?" "The murders of his lawyer, one of my detectives, and my friend and colleague, Maureen Scofield." "Yes, I'm very sorry about that." "Thank you." "And you're here because?" "I'd like to turn over the campaign's financial records and have your office look into them." "And in return?" "A quid pro quo." "I need information." "Anything that will lead to the prosecution of the parties involved." "You have a suspect?" "Philip Duches,who hired Benny Boudreau to contract it out." "Has Boudreau confessed?" "So what do you say, Ms. Port?" "We have had them under surveillance." "Duches and Boudreau?" "Duches and Samantha Veeder." "Detective Veeder's wife?" "They're lovers." "With Duches." "You didn't know?" "That bitch!" "I'm rotting away in here, and she's..." "Yeah, she is." "Turns my stomach." "She betrayed me." "Now's your chance to return the favor." "So, Chris?" "Durkin used funds from his client's campaigns to bribe politicians." "To get them to do what?" "Pass legislation." "We planned on using the state's power of eminent domain to obtain privately-owned land for development." "So, the new children's hospital your wife's been fundraising for?" "Who could be against a new children's hospital?" "I assume there was money to be made." "Millions." "What do you want to do, Annabeth?" "I want to put you on our witness list to testify against your wife." "I'm counting the hours." "Can I help you gentlemen?" "Samantha Veeder, you're under arrest for the murders of Peter Durkin," "Maureen Scofield, Robert Simms and Detective John Hahn." "What?" "!" "You'll come with us, we'll read you your rights downstairs." "Don't want to spoil the party." "What's this about?" "Philip... they're arresting me." "They're arresting us." "Mr. Duches,you know the drill." "I do, and I'm waiving the reading of my rights." "Just curious, who gave me up?" "Benny Boudreau." "Not to worry." "But..." "We'll get this sorted out." "Wish they were all this easy." "I heard that." "Nice to see you again, Ms. Chase." "I wish it were under different circumstances." "Can't imagine what those would be." "This is the only place I can think of where our paths would cross again." "I'm sorry to hear that." "Mr. Duches is innocent of these trumped up charges." "Mr. Duches engaged in a conspiracy with Mrs. Veeder to commit murder for hire." "According to whom-- Benny Boudreau?" "We're open to making a deal with one party or the other." "We're not interested." "You know, the last time we spoke," "I told you I'd be prosecuting you one day." "So be it." "First come, first served." "I had nothing to do with it." "I'm not making any sort of deal." "You have nothing tying her to these murders." "You and Mr. Duches though that Peter Durkin would use what he knew about your children's hospital scheme to get himself a lighter sentence." "So they hired a hit man?" "Millions of dollars at stake." "They could afford it." "Well, I hope you're not a light sleeper, Mrs. Veeder." "Excuse me?" "It's pretty noisy in prison." "It's going to take a little getting used to." "Annabeth?" "Thank you, Reverend Scofield." "Your daughter was an inspiration to me." "She was a fine prosecutor, a public servant, and most of all, she was my friend." "She trusted the law." "She fought for justice with compassion, and she truly believed the work she did could make a difference." "She died doing the work she loved." "She was kind, fair and compassionate." "When my baby was born, she shared my joy, and when my husband died, and I was inconsolable, she shared my grief." "I miss her so... very much." "And I can't believe she's gone." "?" "Tonighters were the result of a conspiracy whose authors," "Samantha Veeder and Philip Duches panicked when Peter Durkin was arrested for his role in the murder of a young girl." "So they had him killed." "The defendants are also responsible for the deaths of three other people" "Robert Simms, Detective John Hahn and Assistant Prosecutor Maureen Scofield." "Ask yourselves, who had the most to gain from Peter Durkin's death?" "One name comes to the fore." "Chief Deputy Prosecuting Attorney James Conlon." "Now, I'm not suggesting" "Mr. Conlon ordered Mr. Durkin's death to prevent certain facts about his troubled campaign from coming out, or to put an end to the burgeoning scandal in the police department and prosecutor's office." "But Mr. Conlon has powerful friends who might have acted on his behalf." "Many, many people stood to benefit from Peter Durkin's murder, and I beg you, ladies and gentlemen, to keep an open mind to the possibility that persons other than Samantha Veeder and Philip Duches orchestrated this awful crime." "They're just tryingto smear Conlon, divert attention with an alternate suspect." "Are you positive?" "Maureen called me late one night a while ago and she was troubled." "About what?" "She said she'd been called to testify before a Grand Jury." "A corruption investigation of your office." "Oh, you didn't know?" "N-No, she never told me that." "And Grand Jury proceedings are secret." "Yeah, so she said more than once." "Look, she swore me to secrecy." "That's why I haven't mentioned it." "When was this?" "Mid-April." "There was a note on her calendar" " GJ, Grand Jury-- but there was no Grand Jury panel that day." "I checked." "I think she said it was federal." "I know she testified in your investigation under oath and subject to your cross examination." "She wasn't supposed to tell anyone about that." "How did you find out?" "She only told her father." "Her father told me only after she was killed." "Anybody else know?" "Nobody." "Your boss?" "No." "You know that I cannot discuss this investigation." "I'm asking you only about Maureen's testimony." "Did she implicate Conlon in political corruption?" "Did she believe that Conlon knew Durkin was corrupt in the office in any way?" "And tell me, how ithis going to help your case, Ms. Chase?" "I can't think of a better voice to defend Conlon than Maureen's." "If she said Conlon wasn't beholden to Durkin," "I want the jury to hear that." "I want them to dismiss this ridiculous idea and focus on the defendants who committed this crime." "Four people are dead, including a prosecutor." "To sum up, Mr. Boudreau, who hired you to have Peter Durkin killed?" "Philip Duches." "Nothing further." "Mr. Bachner, Mr. Milken." "No questions, Your Honor." "Mr. Boudreau, this contract, this killing for hire that you just admitted to executing, which resulted in the deaths of four people,this quadruple murder." "At any point did you speak to my client Samantha Veeder?" "No." "Did Mr. Duches ever mention her name in this connection?" "No." "Did you have any knowledge whatsoever of her alleged participation?" "No." "Nothing further." "Witness may step down." "Your next witness,Ms. Chase." "The People call Assistant Prosecuting Attorney James Conlon." "You swear to tell the truth, the whole truth,nothing but the truth?" "I do." "Peter Durkin was my campaign manager." "After his death, I learned that he may have laundered money through my campaign in order to pay political bribes." "Were you aware of this when you indicted Mr. Durkin for his role in Kellie Lawson's murder?" "No." "Did you have any reason to fear what Mr. Durkin might reveal in his efforts to make a deal?" "No." "Why not?" "Because after I indicted Mr. Durkin," "I no longer considered myself a candidate for Attorney General of Indiana." "I immediately stopped raising money and began to wind down my political operation." "Did you hire Wayne Thomas to kill Peter Durkin?" "Of course not." "Thank you." "According to preliminary documents," "Mr. Durkin raised $3 million for your campaign." "You spent $1.3." "Where's the rest?" "I don't know.Your clients might." "In Indiana, a candidate is required to personally sign his final campaign contributions report and attest to their accuracy." "It's still early in the campaign." "I haven't begun to review my final report." "What about invoices?" "Didn't you compare the invoices you signed with the goods and services your campaign received?" "I'm busy running the Prosecutor's Office." "I trusted Mr. Durkin to attend to housekeeping duties." "Well, I must say, Mr. Conlon, you're the most trusting lawyer I ever met." "Is that a question, Your Honor?" "My mistake was trusting Mr. Durkin in an area" "I knew little about." "A mistake or a lie?" "Because I believe you did trust Mr. Durkin." "You trusted him to protect you, your reputation,your skeletons, and your secrets." "Didn't you, Mr. Conlon?" "I trusted Peter Durkin to do his job." "I blame myself for that." "You are as corrupt as the man you hired to run your campaign, a man who threatened to reveal that when you charged him with murder." "Objection." "No further questions." "You may step down, Mr. Conlon." "Any other witnesses, Ms. Chase?" "I'd like to call a rebuttal witness, Your Honor." "I ask Your Honor allow into evidence the videotaped testimony of Maureen Scofield." "We know nothing about this tape,Your Honor." "We offer the testimony only to rebut Mr. Bachner's attack on Mr. Conlon's character." "That's hearsay, Your Honor." "It was a testimony given under oath to a United States Attorney." "I'll rule after reviewing the tape in my chambers." "Did you write a memo asking Mr. Conlon to authorize subpoenas for Greenwood Youth Shelter in connection with your investigation of Chris and Samantha Veeder?" "He declined to authorize the subpoenas." "Why?" "He said if the subpoenas turned up no evidence of wrongdoing at Greenwood, it would damage his campaign." "Did that strike you as inappropriate?" "Any prosecutor running for office is going to consider politics." "It's a reality of the job." "Look..." "Jim Conlon and I disagree about a lot of things, but not ethics." "The power to prosecute is an awesome burden, and Jim Conlon takes that power more seriously and balances the demands of the job more fairly than anyone I've ever worked with." "You think highly of him." "I do." "He's been an inspiration." "I didn't like him at first, personally." "I found him brash, high-handed even, but after working with him," "I've come to admire him greatly." "He doesn't have an unethical bone in his body and he would never, ever compromise the integrity of the office for political considerations." "And your wife knew about the scheme to appropriate property for construction of a new children's hospital through eminent domain?" "It was her plan." "Who would have benefited financially?" "The shareholders." "Mr. Durkin, Mr. Duches, my wife." "Did you speak to your wife after Mr. Durkin's arrest?" "She was quite upset." "She said she knew that he'd tell the authorities about her hospital scheme in exchange for a more lenient sentence." "What was your response?" "I agreed with her." "I suggested she collect her assets and leave the country, but she said she couldn't do that." "I later found out why." "Did she say what she was going to do?" "She said that she would take care of it and that Mr. Duches would help her." "What did you take that to mean?" "Objection." "Calls for speculation." "Your Honor, I'm asking the witness' opinion based on personal knowledge of his wife." "I'll allow it." "I took it to mean that they would have Mr. Durkin killed." "Problem solved." "A vengeful husband who learns his wife is having an affair while he's in prison for murdering a young woman concocts a story of murder for hire." "I'm sorry." "What's the question?" "The question is, Mr. Veeder, aren't you lying to get back at your wife?" "I'm telling the truth." "That's part of my deal." "Excuse me?" "Self-interest, counselor." "I get years taken off of my sentence if I tell the truth." "If I lie, life in prison." "So I have every reason to tell the truth." "Sorry, darling." "You son of a bitch." "Mrs. Veeder." "Nothing further." "In the matter of the murder of Peter Durkin, the jury finds the defendant Philip Duches... guilty." "On the matter of the murder of Peter Durkin, the jury finds the defendant" "Samantha Veeder guilty." "On the matter of the murder of Maureen Scofield, the jury finds the defendant Philip Duches guilty." "On the matter of the murder of Maureen Scofield, the jury finds the defendant Samantha Veeder guilty." "On the matter of the murder of Detective John Hahn, the jury finds the defendant Philip Duches... guilty." "Guilty on all counts." "Life without times four for both of them." "Congratulations." "Thanks." "You did a great job." "Thank you." "It's nice what she said about you." "I think you were vindicated." "Oh, I think it's a little late for me." "my opinion?" "You should change your mind and stay in the race." "You're just trying to get rid of me." "That would mean I thought you actually had a chance to win." "Hi." "Mind if I join you?" "Sure." "Please." "So, well, what are we drinking to?" "To Maureen." "To Maureen." "To Maureen."
