1
00:00:00,928 --> 00:00:05,545
_
2
00:00:05,938 --> 00:00:08,173
In the criminal justice system,
3
00:00:08,207 --> 00:00:11,576
sexually based offenses are
considered especially heinous.
4
00:00:11,611 --> 00:00:13,912
In New York City,
the dedicated detectives
5
00:00:13,946 --> 00:00:15,881
who investigate
these vicious felonies
6
00:00:15,915 --> 00:00:17,149
are members of an elite squad
7
00:00:17,183 --> 00:00:19,284
known as
the Special Victims Unit.
8
00:00:19,318 --> 00:00:21,665
These are their stories.
9
00:00:22,355 --> 00:00:24,589
No, no, Maria.
No, you can't.
10
00:00:24,624 --> 00:00:25,757
You can't pull that crap.
11
00:00:25,792 --> 00:00:27,325
No, you had Zara
all summer long.
12
00:00:27,360 --> 00:00:28,727
Right, I flew out there.
13
00:00:28,761 --> 00:00:30,862
You're supposed to fly her
out here for Thanksgiving.
14
00:00:30,897 --> 00:00:32,097
Yeah, my mother's expecting us.
15
00:00:32,131 --> 00:00:34,099
My sister's flying up
from Miami.
16
00:00:34,133 --> 00:00:37,469
No, look, this isn't
up for discussion, all right?
17
00:00:37,503 --> 00:00:40,372
No... well, yeah, who's yelling?
I'm not yelling.
18
00:00:40,406 --> 00:00:42,507
No, you don't hang...
Don't hang up on me.
19
00:00:42,542 --> 00:00:43,542
Maria?
20
00:00:44,577 --> 00:00:46,278
Damn it.
21
00:00:46,312 --> 00:00:48,280
Whoa!
22
00:00:48,314 --> 00:00:51,283
Hey, you all right?
What's going on?
23
00:00:51,317 --> 00:00:53,752
Nothing.
24
00:00:53,786 --> 00:00:55,787
Okay, take a breath.
25
00:00:55,822 --> 00:00:58,790
How about you don't tell me
what to do?
26
00:01:05,798 --> 00:01:07,799
Don't say it.
27
00:01:07,834 --> 00:01:09,334
Say what?
28
00:01:11,037 --> 00:01:13,004
Hey, what happened
to your hand?
29
00:01:13,039 --> 00:01:14,973
Ah, nothing. It's fine.
30
00:01:19,512 --> 00:01:22,681
- That work-related?
- Yeah, some geek hacked
31
00:01:22,715 --> 00:01:25,517
celebrity nude selfies
from the cloud
32
00:01:25,551 --> 00:01:27,319
and posted them Redchanit.
33
00:01:27,353 --> 00:01:28,587
And that's SVU because...
34
00:01:28,621 --> 00:01:30,889
Some of the celebs
in the pics are underage.
35
00:01:30,923 --> 00:01:33,725
- That makes it child porn.
- Okay, wrap it up, Fin.
36
00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:35,727
Find anything,
have TARU trace it.
37
00:01:35,762 --> 00:01:37,863
You know you don't want
naked pictures of yourself
38
00:01:37,897 --> 00:01:39,030
on the Internet,
39
00:01:39,065 --> 00:01:40,599
don't take naked pictures
of yourself.
40
00:01:40,633 --> 00:01:42,234
Right, and if you don't
want to get assaulted,
41
00:01:42,269 --> 00:01:44,035
don't wear a short skirt?
42
00:01:46,839 --> 00:01:48,707
Wait, hold up.
Who's that?
43
00:01:48,741 --> 00:01:50,408
- What?
- No, go back.
44
00:01:50,443 --> 00:01:51,410
There.
45
00:01:51,444 --> 00:01:52,811
That's A.J. Martin.
46
00:01:52,845 --> 00:01:54,946
From the sports wrap
pregame show?
47
00:01:54,981 --> 00:01:57,582
Now, but before that
he's a heisman trophy winner
48
00:01:57,617 --> 00:02:00,085
and an eight-time pro bowler.
That's...
49
00:02:00,119 --> 00:02:02,321
That's his baby mama
Paula Bryant.
50
00:02:02,355 --> 00:02:03,422
But how is this guy mixed in
51
00:02:03,456 --> 00:02:04,589
with those celebrity nudes?
52
00:02:04,624 --> 00:02:05,657
I don't know.
53
00:02:05,691 --> 00:02:07,893
Redchanit's like a failed state.
54
00:02:07,927 --> 00:02:10,028
They'll post anything now.
55
00:02:12,398 --> 00:02:14,533
Whoa.
56
00:02:14,567 --> 00:02:15,901
Hey, guys.
57
00:02:15,935 --> 00:02:17,669
What is this,
a celebrity nude task force?
58
00:02:17,704 --> 00:02:19,504
It may be something more.
59
00:02:21,674 --> 00:02:23,375
A.J. Martin?
60
00:02:23,409 --> 00:02:24,509
When was this?
61
00:02:24,544 --> 00:02:26,044
I mean, from the way
they're dressed,
62
00:02:26,079 --> 00:02:27,512
it looks like
the black and white gala
63
00:02:27,547 --> 00:02:29,481
at the met six weeks ago.
64
00:02:29,515 --> 00:02:31,650
Tons of press coverage.
65
00:02:33,953 --> 00:02:35,387
I don't remember
hearing anything
66
00:02:35,421 --> 00:02:37,289
about A.J. Martin being
picked up on a domestic.
67
00:02:37,323 --> 00:02:38,724
Well, they must have
picked him up,
68
00:02:38,758 --> 00:02:41,026
because a patrolman shows up.
69
00:02:41,060 --> 00:02:42,094
The guy's a sports hero.
70
00:02:42,128 --> 00:02:43,495
You know how this goes.
71
00:02:43,529 --> 00:02:44,930
Well, I know how it used to go.
72
00:02:45,258 --> 00:02:48,260
She's so out of it,
she can hardly walk.
73
00:02:48,294 --> 00:02:51,563
Find out if there's any video
of what happened in between.
74
00:02:51,598 --> 00:02:53,098
Yeah, I don't see it
posted anywhere.
75
00:02:53,133 --> 00:02:54,266
We can contact the garage.
76
00:02:54,301 --> 00:02:55,634
You know, call the local
precinct.
77
00:02:55,669 --> 00:02:56,835
Find out what really happened.
78
00:02:56,870 --> 00:02:57,836
I'll call the chief.
79
00:02:57,871 --> 00:02:59,271
You want us to investigate?
80
00:02:59,305 --> 00:03:01,607
After Ray Rice and the others,
81
00:03:01,641 --> 00:03:03,042
if it looks
like domestic violence,
82
00:03:03,076 --> 00:03:06,311
we follow up...
Before this becomes the news.
83
00:03:47,117 --> 00:03:52,446
- sync and corrections by Zac -
- www.addic7ed.com -
84
00:03:55,144 --> 00:03:57,528
You never got into it
after a few too many?
85
00:03:58,344 --> 00:04:00,178
How is this SVU?
86
00:04:00,213 --> 00:04:03,014
Well... that's how.
87
00:04:03,049 --> 00:04:05,216
Sexual assault.
88
00:04:05,251 --> 00:04:08,119
Must be slow downtown.
89
00:04:08,154 --> 00:04:09,921
Well, it was a couple's thing.
90
00:04:09,956 --> 00:04:11,990
My officer arrested both
at the scene.
91
00:04:12,024 --> 00:04:13,792
Yeah, we saw that,
but she was woozy,
92
00:04:13,826 --> 00:04:16,895
she's missing a shoe,
she looked roughed up.
93
00:04:16,929 --> 00:04:20,298
Ms. Bryant declined
medical attention.
94
00:04:20,333 --> 00:04:23,234
He was polite.
She was contrite.
95
00:04:23,269 --> 00:04:25,103
So their interviews
were consistent?
96
00:04:25,137 --> 00:04:26,972
It was more of a discussion.
97
00:04:27,006 --> 00:04:29,407
But they were
spoken to separately?
98
00:04:29,442 --> 00:04:31,576
I didn't see the need.
99
00:04:31,611 --> 00:04:34,913
Look, we got a lot of swells
up here,
100
00:04:34,947 --> 00:04:36,948
and sometimes less is more.
101
00:04:36,983 --> 00:04:39,451
Oh...
102
00:04:39,485 --> 00:04:40,852
I get it.
103
00:04:40,886 --> 00:04:44,356
Hey... A.J. is a legend.
104
00:04:44,390 --> 00:04:47,359
His lady said she got jealous
and she made a scene.
105
00:04:47,393 --> 00:04:49,561
Some low-life leaked that video
to Redchanit.
106
00:04:49,595 --> 00:04:50,795
Now you guys want
to come in here
107
00:04:50,830 --> 00:04:52,564
and play Monday morning
quarterback?
108
00:04:52,598 --> 00:04:55,700
We're just trying to figure out
why no charges were filed.
109
00:04:55,735 --> 00:04:57,669
Well, looks like
it was adjourned
110
00:04:57,703 --> 00:04:59,938
contemplating dismissal.
111
00:04:59,972 --> 00:05:01,539
So you got a problem,
112
00:05:01,574 --> 00:05:03,708
you can take that up
with the D.A.
113
00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:08,179
Out of context,
this video is disturbing,
114
00:05:08,214 --> 00:05:10,282
but it doesn't contradict
the police report
115
00:05:10,316 --> 00:05:11,283
sent to the A.D.A.
116
00:05:11,317 --> 00:05:12,484
Who was this A.D.A.?
117
00:05:12,518 --> 00:05:14,319
Danielle Dicarlo...
Green, but good.
118
00:05:14,353 --> 00:05:16,021
Taking her first vacation
in three years.
119
00:05:16,055 --> 00:05:18,023
To say that she is dedicated
is an understatement.
120
00:05:18,057 --> 00:05:19,324
Well, to say that she
threw the book at him
121
00:05:19,358 --> 00:05:20,492
is an overstatement.
122
00:05:20,526 --> 00:05:22,661
The precinct cops said
it was a drunken spat.
123
00:05:22,695 --> 00:05:24,863
Dicarlo dropped the charges
against Paula,
124
00:05:24,897 --> 00:05:27,165
offered A.J. adjournment
in contemplation of dismissal.
125
00:05:27,199 --> 00:05:29,067
He does community service,
didn't re-offend...
126
00:05:29,101 --> 00:05:31,269
In six months,
it all gets dropped.
127
00:05:31,304 --> 00:05:32,404
Look, that's the deal
that I give
128
00:05:32,438 --> 00:05:33,772
when the victim refuses
to cooperate.
129
00:05:33,806 --> 00:05:35,674
Or are you saying
because they're celebrities,
130
00:05:35,708 --> 00:05:37,542
we should have given them
anti-preferential treatment?
131
00:05:37,577 --> 00:05:38,977
I'm saying that your A.D.A.
132
00:05:39,011 --> 00:05:41,112
shouldn't have taken
the arresting officer's word.
133
00:05:41,147 --> 00:05:42,614
I take your word all the time.
134
00:05:42,648 --> 00:05:44,616
Anyway, this is moot.
135
00:05:44,650 --> 00:05:46,751
The deal was offered.
The lawyer said no.
136
00:05:46,786 --> 00:05:49,120
They turned down
a "get out of jail free" card?
137
00:05:49,155 --> 00:05:51,356
- Why?
- It's the smart move.
138
00:05:51,390 --> 00:05:53,491
A.J. Called the A.D.A.'s bluff.
139
00:05:53,574 --> 00:05:56,309
He just assumed that he'd
get away with it regardless.
140
00:05:56,343 --> 00:05:58,478
What, he's probably
worried about P.R.,
141
00:05:58,512 --> 00:06:00,113
he's trying to avoid
community service.
142
00:06:00,147 --> 00:06:02,248
So, great, he gets away
with everything.
143
00:06:02,282 --> 00:06:04,651
Everything?
Look, there's not a lot here.
144
00:06:04,685 --> 00:06:05,985
Any footage from the stairwell?
145
00:06:06,020 --> 00:06:08,087
Amaro and Rollins
are tracking it down.
146
00:06:08,122 --> 00:06:09,555
And when they find it,
147
00:06:09,590 --> 00:06:11,357
we know what we're gonna see,
148
00:06:11,392 --> 00:06:13,493
the same thing we've seen before
from these guys.
149
00:06:13,527 --> 00:06:14,928
He knocked her out.
150
00:06:14,962 --> 00:06:16,262
Why not just convict him now?
151
00:06:16,297 --> 00:06:18,031
He dragged her unconscious body
152
00:06:18,065 --> 00:06:21,000
out of that stairwell
with no concern for her,
153
00:06:21,035 --> 00:06:22,835
and then she says
she slipped and fell?
154
00:06:22,870 --> 00:06:23,970
Come on.
155
00:06:24,004 --> 00:06:24,971
In certain ways,
I don't disagree.
156
00:06:25,005 --> 00:06:26,072
I hate it when people say that.
157
00:06:26,106 --> 00:06:28,408
Since he didn't take the offer,
the case is still open.
158
00:06:28,442 --> 00:06:30,476
Find the video,
or get her to change her story.
159
00:06:30,511 --> 00:06:32,345
We'll see where we are.
160
00:06:32,757 --> 00:06:34,374
_
161
00:06:34,748 --> 00:06:37,050
We cooperated with the police.
162
00:06:37,084 --> 00:06:39,619
The D.A. offered
a conditional discharge.
163
00:06:39,653 --> 00:06:41,087
My legal team's on it.
164
00:06:41,121 --> 00:06:43,022
That was before
the video came to light.
165
00:06:43,057 --> 00:06:44,290
Yeah, well, I mean,
166
00:06:44,325 --> 00:06:45,992
that's what you should
be following up on.
167
00:06:46,026 --> 00:06:47,527
I mean, who leaked this?
168
00:06:47,561 --> 00:06:51,130
We have detectives
working on that.
169
00:06:51,165 --> 00:06:52,332
Good throw, shorty.
170
00:06:52,366 --> 00:06:53,700
I'm gonna be a player,
just like my dad.
171
00:06:53,734 --> 00:06:54,934
Who are you?
172
00:06:54,969 --> 00:06:56,602
Antwan Jarrod,
it's time to go to your room.
173
00:06:56,637 --> 00:06:58,037
There's grown folks talking.
174
00:06:58,072 --> 00:06:59,706
- What are you talking about?
- Junior!
175
00:06:59,740 --> 00:07:01,074
Yes, sir.
176
00:07:01,108 --> 00:07:05,578
Go ahead to your room, boy.
Ain't nobody playing with you.
177
00:07:08,682 --> 00:07:11,050
He wants to be
like his old man.
178
00:07:11,085 --> 00:07:14,754
With an arm like that, though,
he's a natural quarterback.
179
00:07:14,788 --> 00:07:17,023
Carrying on
the father-and-son dynasty.
180
00:07:17,057 --> 00:07:18,224
True dat.
181
00:07:18,259 --> 00:07:19,492
Junior's coach says...
182
00:07:19,526 --> 00:07:23,029
A.J.'s only 8, but he
plays with the 10-year-olds.
183
00:07:29,270 --> 00:07:30,570
Uh...
184
00:07:30,604 --> 00:07:32,605
Would you mind showing me
the restroom, please?
185
00:07:32,640 --> 00:07:35,508
Yeah, sure,
it's right down here.
186
00:07:35,542 --> 00:07:37,310
- Thanks.
- Have a seat.
187
00:07:42,116 --> 00:07:44,751
You know what this
is all about, right?
188
00:07:44,785 --> 00:07:46,953
Yeah.
You got to do your job.
189
00:07:46,987 --> 00:07:48,388
I respect that.
190
00:07:48,422 --> 00:07:50,590
All the athletes
in the press right now...
191
00:07:50,624 --> 00:07:53,593
My sergeant just wants
to double-check everything.
192
00:07:53,627 --> 00:07:55,762
You mind walking me through it?
193
00:07:55,796 --> 00:07:58,531
It's like I told
the boys that night.
194
00:07:58,565 --> 00:08:01,501
Had too much to drink,
had some words.
195
00:08:01,535 --> 00:08:02,635
That's all.
196
00:08:02,670 --> 00:08:06,406
Those words didn't
turn into deeds?
197
00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:09,008
Hey, I love my girl.
198
00:08:09,043 --> 00:08:10,376
But even she would tell you
199
00:08:10,411 --> 00:08:13,646
that she goes off the rails
when she's had a few.
200
00:08:13,681 --> 00:08:15,849
All I was trying to do
was make sure
201
00:08:15,883 --> 00:08:18,918
that everything stayed
within the hash marks.
202
00:08:21,255 --> 00:08:23,289
It's... right here.
203
00:08:23,324 --> 00:08:24,657
Great.
Paula, is there anything
204
00:08:24,692 --> 00:08:27,260
that you might want
to tell me about that night,
205
00:08:27,294 --> 00:08:29,562
about what happened?
206
00:08:29,597 --> 00:08:31,798
No, I'd been drinking.
207
00:08:31,832 --> 00:08:33,833
I went after A.J.,
and I tripped.
208
00:08:33,868 --> 00:08:35,034
End of story.
209
00:08:35,069 --> 00:08:37,770
But you were going upstairs.
210
00:08:37,805 --> 00:08:41,474
Excuse me, sergeant.
This is my house,
211
00:08:41,509 --> 00:08:43,409
and you're here
with my permission.
212
00:08:43,444 --> 00:08:46,579
Anything you say to Paula,
you can say to both of us.
213
00:08:57,358 --> 00:08:59,158
Doesn't look
like garage footage.
214
00:08:59,193 --> 00:09:01,060
No, it's from the gala,
and it's all we got,
215
00:09:01,095 --> 00:09:02,562
'cause the garage is claiming
216
00:09:02,596 --> 00:09:05,431
that they erase their security
cache every seven days.
217
00:09:05,466 --> 00:09:08,601
So how did the first video
end up on Redchanit
218
00:09:08,636 --> 00:09:11,304
six weeks after the event?
They're lying.
219
00:09:11,338 --> 00:09:13,339
Get a search warrant.
We need to find out
220
00:09:13,374 --> 00:09:14,941
what really went down
in that stairwell.
221
00:09:14,975 --> 00:09:16,976
If something went down
in that stairwell.
222
00:09:17,011 --> 00:09:19,245
If?
Man, he dragged her out.
223
00:09:19,280 --> 00:09:20,280
It's no concern.
224
00:09:20,314 --> 00:09:21,614
Yeah, have you
ever tried to move
225
00:09:21,649 --> 00:09:23,650
100 pounds of passed-out
drunk?
226
00:09:23,684 --> 00:09:24,918
It ain't easy.
227
00:09:24,952 --> 00:09:27,520
She's covering for him.
Fin, you saw it.
228
00:09:27,555 --> 00:09:29,322
He's controlling.
229
00:09:29,356 --> 00:09:31,057
His little son
was terrified of him.
230
00:09:31,091 --> 00:09:32,458
I was terrified of my mother.
231
00:09:32,493 --> 00:09:34,961
When I used to act a fool,
she'd beat my ass.
232
00:09:34,995 --> 00:09:36,429
Yeah, I was raised
the same way.
233
00:09:36,463 --> 00:09:38,565
In the South, you have
to pick out your own switch.
234
00:09:38,599 --> 00:09:40,633
So now we're making
cultural exemptions?
235
00:09:40,668 --> 00:09:43,403
You know, my father,
he went at me with his fists.
236
00:09:43,437 --> 00:09:46,105
It taught me you never lay
a hand on a child,
237
00:09:46,140 --> 00:09:47,440
or a woman.
238
00:09:47,474 --> 00:09:51,177
It's possible that A.J.
could have been fending her off.
239
00:09:51,212 --> 00:09:52,579
Fending her off?
240
00:09:52,613 --> 00:09:55,248
He's twice her size.
He should have just walked away.
241
00:09:55,282 --> 00:09:56,516
Okay, great.
242
00:09:56,550 --> 00:09:57,684
What?
243
00:09:59,353 --> 00:10:00,587
When?
244
00:10:00,621 --> 00:10:02,689
Okay, LMZ, guys, now.
245
00:10:09,263 --> 00:10:10,863
Well, how the hell
did they get that?
246
00:10:10,898 --> 00:10:13,366
The old-fashioned way.
They paid for it.
247
00:10:21,876 --> 00:10:23,576
That son of a bitch.
248
00:10:25,179 --> 00:10:26,646
That...
249
00:10:26,680 --> 00:10:28,615
That changes everything.
250
00:10:36,860 --> 00:10:39,064
Hey, give us a little room,
okay?
251
00:10:39,099 --> 00:10:41,528
I'm so sorry
what you must be going through.
252
00:10:41,849 --> 00:10:43,017
With that video out there,
253
00:10:43,050 --> 00:10:44,840
unfortunately
there's no shield law
254
00:10:44,875 --> 00:10:46,820
for domestic
violence victims.
255
00:10:46,854 --> 00:10:48,855
I'm not a victim.
256
00:10:48,889 --> 00:10:51,324
I'll need a word
with my clients.
257
00:10:51,359 --> 00:10:53,026
And I'll need Mr. Martin
and Ms. Bryant
258
00:10:53,060 --> 00:10:55,061
- interviewed separately.
- That's not necessary.
259
00:10:55,096 --> 00:10:57,430
It's okay, A.J.
You'll both be with counsel.
260
00:10:57,465 --> 00:10:58,898
- Brian?
- On it, boss.
261
00:10:58,933 --> 00:11:00,901
Okay, we're good to go.
262
00:11:04,105 --> 00:11:06,806
Women are flirting.
I try to be nice,
263
00:11:06,841 --> 00:11:09,876
pose for a selfie,
autograph a Jersey.
264
00:11:09,911 --> 00:11:11,645
That is very nice of you.
265
00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:14,381
We're just putting the events
of the evening in context.
266
00:11:14,415 --> 00:11:17,183
Okay, so you were flirting,
and Paula got mad.
267
00:11:17,218 --> 00:11:18,852
I know that those girls
are his fans,
268
00:11:18,886 --> 00:11:20,387
but they got to know
that he's mine.
269
00:11:20,421 --> 00:11:23,223
And you... expressed that?
270
00:11:23,257 --> 00:11:24,357
Yeah.
271
00:11:24,392 --> 00:11:25,959
I started in.
I was getting loud.
272
00:11:25,993 --> 00:11:28,261
Which made A.J. angry.
273
00:11:29,597 --> 00:11:32,566
I embarrassed him in front
of important people.
274
00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:33,800
That can't happen.
275
00:11:33,834 --> 00:11:34,935
She was stumbling.
276
00:11:34,969 --> 00:11:36,303
She could have hurt herself.
277
00:11:36,337 --> 00:11:39,739
- I had to stop her.
- With your fist.
278
00:11:39,774 --> 00:11:41,508
I had sipped on a few myself.
279
00:11:41,542 --> 00:11:42,576
How many?
280
00:11:42,610 --> 00:11:43,777
You don't need to get
into that, A.J.
281
00:11:43,811 --> 00:11:47,480
What I'm saying is,
my reflexes weren't 100%.
282
00:11:47,515 --> 00:11:49,149
They seemed pretty sharp to me.
283
00:11:49,183 --> 00:11:50,817
A.J. was just trying
to protect me.
284
00:11:50,851 --> 00:11:52,752
By laying you out
in the stairwell?
285
00:11:52,787 --> 00:11:54,220
What's with the animosity,
detective?
286
00:11:54,255 --> 00:11:57,157
We're just trying
to understand what happened.
287
00:11:57,191 --> 00:12:00,193
We already told the NYPD
what happened.
288
00:12:00,227 --> 00:12:02,329
Look, we are putting it
behind us.
289
00:12:02,363 --> 00:12:03,730
Why can't y'all?
290
00:12:03,764 --> 00:12:05,632
We told the officers...
291
00:12:05,666 --> 00:12:07,234
Hey.
292
00:12:07,268 --> 00:12:08,735
Sorry, had to start without you.
293
00:12:08,769 --> 00:12:09,736
I'm sure.
294
00:12:09,770 --> 00:12:10,804
What's their story?
295
00:12:10,838 --> 00:12:12,572
They were drunk,
she was stumbling,
296
00:12:12,607 --> 00:12:14,441
and he had to stop her.
297
00:12:14,475 --> 00:12:16,443
What I saw was an assault.
298
00:12:16,477 --> 00:12:17,911
We're on the same page.
299
00:12:17,945 --> 00:12:19,679
Let's hope that that video
is damning enough
300
00:12:19,714 --> 00:12:21,314
he won't want this
going to trial.
301
00:12:21,349 --> 00:12:23,416
Trial?
302
00:12:23,451 --> 00:12:24,818
You want to plea this down?
303
00:12:24,852 --> 00:12:25,819
He should be in jail.
304
00:12:25,853 --> 00:12:26,920
Yeah, he should.
305
00:12:26,954 --> 00:12:28,455
But he's personable,
charismatic.
306
00:12:28,489 --> 00:12:29,556
Paula supports him.
307
00:12:29,590 --> 00:12:30,624
The jury's gonna want
to forgive him.
308
00:12:30,658 --> 00:12:31,758
You know, you're right.
309
00:12:31,792 --> 00:12:33,226
We should just slap him
on the wrist
310
00:12:33,261 --> 00:12:34,661
and send him home.
311
00:12:38,199 --> 00:12:39,933
A.J. was defending himself,
312
00:12:39,967 --> 00:12:41,768
but if you want
to make a reasonable offer,
313
00:12:41,803 --> 00:12:43,203
we'll hear you out.
314
00:12:43,237 --> 00:12:45,472
The other D.A. said something
about anger management.
315
00:12:45,506 --> 00:12:46,506
We'll go.
316
00:12:46,541 --> 00:12:49,743
- A.A., whatever it takes.
- Good for you.
317
00:12:49,777 --> 00:12:51,778
Acknowledging there
was no serious injury,
318
00:12:51,813 --> 00:12:53,180
assault III, 90 days.
319
00:12:53,214 --> 00:12:56,483
Assault III, no jail time,
200 hours of community service.
320
00:12:56,517 --> 00:12:57,851
A.J.'s gonna have to do
a lot more
321
00:12:57,885 --> 00:13:00,687
than pick up garbage with
a pointy stick for this one.
322
00:13:00,721 --> 00:13:03,623
My client has already been
suspended by his network.
323
00:13:03,658 --> 00:13:05,825
Assault III with jail time
is an overreach.
324
00:13:05,860 --> 00:13:07,427
She didn't even go
to the hospital.
325
00:13:07,461 --> 00:13:08,595
You know what, you're right.
326
00:13:08,629 --> 00:13:09,863
This is really
reckless endangerment,
327
00:13:09,897 --> 00:13:11,264
gross disregard for her safety
328
00:13:11,299 --> 00:13:12,566
which could have caused
serious injury.
329
00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:14,167
You want us to plead
to a felony?
330
00:13:14,202 --> 00:13:15,402
I never hurt Paula.
331
00:13:15,436 --> 00:13:16,903
She'll back me up on that.
332
00:13:16,938 --> 00:13:18,872
You heard the man.
We'll see you in court.
333
00:13:18,906 --> 00:13:20,941
Fine, tomorrow, 9:00 A.M.
334
00:13:27,619 --> 00:13:29,359
_
335
00:13:29,394 --> 00:13:31,418
On the charge
of reckless endangerment,
336
00:13:31,452 --> 00:13:32,452
how do you plead?
337
00:13:32,486 --> 00:13:34,721
My client pleads not guilty.
338
00:13:34,755 --> 00:13:35,822
And for bail?
339
00:13:35,856 --> 00:13:37,290
People request remand,
your honor,
340
00:13:37,325 --> 00:13:38,625
given the violence
of the attack
341
00:13:38,659 --> 00:13:41,728
and the callous disregard
for the victim afterwards.
342
00:13:41,762 --> 00:13:43,196
Mr. Martin
is a first-time offender
343
00:13:43,231 --> 00:13:44,197
with a young son.
344
00:13:44,232 --> 00:13:47,100
- He's no flight risk.
- Agreed.
345
00:13:47,135 --> 00:13:49,603
I'm setting bail at $20,000.
346
00:14:01,482 --> 00:14:04,184
Paula, can I just talk to you
for a second?
347
00:14:04,218 --> 00:14:05,519
Why?
348
00:14:05,553 --> 00:14:07,053
If you want to apologize
349
00:14:07,088 --> 00:14:09,055
for everything you're
putting my family through,
350
00:14:09,090 --> 00:14:10,357
it's a little bit too late.
351
00:14:10,391 --> 00:14:12,826
Junior is being harassed
at school.
352
00:14:12,860 --> 00:14:14,528
A.J.'s broadcasting career
is over.
353
00:14:14,562 --> 00:14:16,830
Okay, Paula, I've been
doing this a long time,
354
00:14:16,864 --> 00:14:19,533
and I've seen a lot of men
like A.J.
355
00:14:19,567 --> 00:14:21,234
There's only one A.J.
356
00:14:21,269 --> 00:14:22,235
Best believe.
357
00:14:22,270 --> 00:14:24,237
And he's your soul mate.
358
00:14:24,272 --> 00:14:25,605
And I'm sure
that there are times
359
00:14:25,640 --> 00:14:30,410
that he makes you feel
incredibly special.
360
00:14:30,445 --> 00:14:32,812
But that doesn't make up
for the times
361
00:14:32,847 --> 00:14:34,915
when he lays hands on you.
362
00:14:34,949 --> 00:14:36,483
He slipped.
363
00:14:36,517 --> 00:14:38,652
Do you know what it's like
to have the whole world
364
00:14:38,686 --> 00:14:40,287
watching us
at our worst moment?
365
00:14:40,321 --> 00:14:41,955
To be judging us
by a split second...
366
00:14:41,989 --> 00:14:45,292
If you can look me
in the eye right now,
367
00:14:45,326 --> 00:14:48,795
and tell me
this has only happened once...
368
00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:54,434
I'll believe you.
369
00:15:04,679 --> 00:15:07,180
It's gonna happen again.
370
00:15:07,215 --> 00:15:09,549
And why is that?
371
00:15:09,584 --> 00:15:12,385
Because a strong black man
can't control himself?
372
00:15:12,420 --> 00:15:14,621
He has to be taken down a notch,
right?
373
00:15:14,655 --> 00:15:17,691
By the legal system,
by the public, by you.
374
00:15:17,725 --> 00:15:20,494
I'm concerned
about your safety.
375
00:15:20,528 --> 00:15:23,830
I'm concerned
about your son's safety.
376
00:15:23,865 --> 00:15:25,599
I'm not concerned about...
377
00:15:25,633 --> 00:15:29,402
The public perception
of black men.
378
00:15:29,437 --> 00:15:32,105
Well, we're living as a family,
379
00:15:32,140 --> 00:15:34,307
and A.J. needs me,
380
00:15:34,342 --> 00:15:36,610
just as much as I need him.
381
00:15:41,682 --> 00:15:42,849
Sergeant Benson,
382
00:15:42,884 --> 00:15:44,618
I'm sure this
is just small talk,
383
00:15:44,652 --> 00:15:47,220
but you know not to speak
to Paula without her counsel.
384
00:15:47,255 --> 00:15:48,588
- Paula.
- Thank you.
385
00:15:53,528 --> 00:15:56,663
A.J., Paula, and I
have been praying together
386
00:15:56,697 --> 00:16:00,967
and working through this
emotionally and spiritually.
387
00:16:01,002 --> 00:16:02,302
Paula, you want
to say something?
388
00:16:02,336 --> 00:16:03,703
Thank you, reverend Curtis.
389
00:16:08,910 --> 00:16:11,311
I just want
to set the record straight.
390
00:16:11,345 --> 00:16:16,450
There are people invested
in me playing the victim here.
391
00:16:16,484 --> 00:16:20,120
That's not gonna happen.
392
00:16:20,154 --> 00:16:21,922
I take full responsibility
for provoking
393
00:16:21,956 --> 00:16:25,659
the unfortunate events
of six weeks ago.
394
00:16:25,693 --> 00:16:28,241
A.J. and I are working
on our issues.
395
00:16:30,398 --> 00:16:33,600
All we ask now is for privacy.
396
00:16:34,969 --> 00:16:37,070
We're not taking any questions
today, thank you.
397
00:16:37,104 --> 00:16:39,272
You agree she provoked you?
398
00:16:39,307 --> 00:16:41,074
Come on.
Follow me.
399
00:16:41,109 --> 00:16:44,177
What about the video?
400
00:16:44,212 --> 00:16:46,179
So, A.J.,
what do you have to say
401
00:16:46,214 --> 00:16:48,515
to your fans
and your detractors?
402
00:16:48,549 --> 00:16:50,250
I would say,
403
00:16:50,284 --> 00:16:53,286
don't believe the gutter press.
404
00:16:53,321 --> 00:16:56,189
Our haters can't bring us down.
405
00:16:56,224 --> 00:17:00,093
We are deepening our commitment
to each other every day.
406
00:17:00,128 --> 00:17:02,362
Yeah, and that's what matters.
407
00:17:02,397 --> 00:17:05,165
Mine and A.J.'s,
it's for the long haul.
408
00:17:05,199 --> 00:17:06,867
Are you watching this?
409
00:17:06,901 --> 00:17:09,202
The next step
on the apology tour, yeah.
410
00:17:09,237 --> 00:17:11,171
So in the spirit
of that deepened commitment,
411
00:17:11,205 --> 00:17:13,373
I hear you two have news.
412
00:17:13,407 --> 00:17:15,776
Yeah, um...
413
00:17:15,810 --> 00:17:18,044
A.J. proposed.
414
00:17:18,079 --> 00:17:20,480
Wow, that is gr...
How many carats is that?
415
00:17:20,515 --> 00:17:21,815
15 carats.
416
00:17:21,849 --> 00:17:25,585
It's the same as A.J.'s
retired Jersey number.
417
00:17:25,620 --> 00:17:30,023
We're getting married
later on today.
418
00:17:30,058 --> 00:17:33,794
"What therefore
God hath joined together,
419
00:17:33,828 --> 00:17:36,363
let no man put asunder."
420
00:17:43,260 --> 00:17:45,532
Doctor, beside
the obvious size difference,
421
00:17:46,496 --> 00:17:47,963
what are the other factors
422
00:17:47,998 --> 00:17:50,199
that might make
Mr. Martin's fists
423
00:17:50,233 --> 00:17:52,134
more dangerous
than the average man his age.
424
00:17:52,169 --> 00:17:54,904
On average,
retired pro football players
425
00:17:54,938 --> 00:17:57,506
retain 20% higher bone density
426
00:17:57,541 --> 00:18:00,142
and a 13% higher muscle mass
than other men.
427
00:18:02,846 --> 00:18:05,014
Were you able to determine
the force of the blow
428
00:18:05,048 --> 00:18:06,682
the defendant delivered
to Mrs. Martin
429
00:18:06,717 --> 00:18:08,617
- on the night in question?
- Yes.
430
00:18:08,652 --> 00:18:11,187
Using the standard
force algorithm,
431
00:18:11,221 --> 00:18:14,090
with his weight and muscle mass,
432
00:18:14,124 --> 00:18:16,125
A.J. Martin's fist
hit Paula's face
433
00:18:16,159 --> 00:18:19,995
at more than 700 pounds
per square inch,
434
00:18:20,030 --> 00:18:21,364
four times the force
435
00:18:21,398 --> 00:18:24,500
your average middle-aged
couch potato could exert.
436
00:18:24,534 --> 00:18:26,102
In your opinion,
437
00:18:26,136 --> 00:18:28,537
was this punch capable
of causing serious injury to
438
00:18:28,572 --> 00:18:30,673
or even of killing Mrs. Martin?
439
00:18:30,707 --> 00:18:32,742
- Absolutely.
- Why didn't it?
440
00:18:32,776 --> 00:18:34,292
- Because she got lucky.
- Your honor.
441
00:18:34,567 --> 00:18:36,035
Jury will disregard.
442
00:18:36,069 --> 00:18:37,803
Nothing further.
443
00:18:40,173 --> 00:18:42,508
As a medical examiner,
is it fair to say
444
00:18:42,542 --> 00:18:46,078
you spend more time examining
dead bodies than live ones?
445
00:18:46,112 --> 00:18:47,980
I perform autopsies,
446
00:18:48,014 --> 00:18:50,849
but I evaluate the living
when required.
447
00:18:50,884 --> 00:18:53,219
But you didn't perform
a physical examination
448
00:18:53,253 --> 00:18:56,055
on either Mr. or Mrs. Martin,
did you?
449
00:18:56,089 --> 00:18:57,056
No.
450
00:18:57,090 --> 00:18:58,791
How about an MRI, a cat scan?
451
00:18:58,825 --> 00:19:02,628
Did you look at any
medical records at all?
452
00:19:02,662 --> 00:19:03,662
No.
453
00:19:03,697 --> 00:19:05,764
So your speculation
454
00:19:05,799 --> 00:19:09,335
is based on one angle of
a grainy black-and-white video.
455
00:19:09,369 --> 00:19:10,970
Oh, and some math.
456
00:19:11,004 --> 00:19:13,572
Excuse me, an algorithm.
457
00:19:13,607 --> 00:19:14,773
That's correct.
458
00:19:14,808 --> 00:19:17,042
And in your opinion,
459
00:19:17,077 --> 00:19:18,244
the action you saw
460
00:19:18,278 --> 00:19:21,280
could possibly cause
serious injury.
461
00:19:21,314 --> 00:19:23,248
Or neurological damage.
462
00:19:23,283 --> 00:19:24,617
Death, even.
463
00:19:24,651 --> 00:19:26,652
And yet, minutes later,
464
00:19:26,686 --> 00:19:28,120
Mrs. Martin was carrying on
465
00:19:28,154 --> 00:19:31,190
a coherent conversation
with a police officer.
466
00:19:31,224 --> 00:19:34,660
Is that consistent with someone
suffering serious brain injury?
467
00:19:34,694 --> 00:19:37,263
Some neurological symptoms
take time to develop.
468
00:19:37,297 --> 00:19:40,866
It has been six weeks.
469
00:19:40,901 --> 00:19:42,935
She's sitting right there.
470
00:19:42,969 --> 00:19:45,170
- Looks fine to me.
- Objection.
471
00:19:45,205 --> 00:19:47,439
Withdrawn.
472
00:19:47,474 --> 00:19:49,074
Nothing further.
473
00:19:51,845 --> 00:19:54,346
Even after we showed
Mrs. Martin the footage
474
00:19:54,381 --> 00:19:57,183
of Mr. Martin striking her,
475
00:19:57,217 --> 00:20:01,554
she continued to insist
that it was her fault.
476
00:20:01,588 --> 00:20:03,088
Now, that's not uncommon
477
00:20:03,123 --> 00:20:05,324
for victims
of domestic violence.
478
00:20:05,358 --> 00:20:07,026
It's also not uncommon
479
00:20:07,060 --> 00:20:09,561
for victims
to refuse to testify.
480
00:20:09,596 --> 00:20:10,563
Why's that?
481
00:20:10,597 --> 00:20:12,665
Some are emotionally
482
00:20:12,699 --> 00:20:14,867
or financially dependent
on their abuser.
483
00:20:14,901 --> 00:20:16,936
Some are scared of reprisals.
484
00:20:16,970 --> 00:20:20,673
And a victim of domestic
violence is most at risk
485
00:20:20,707 --> 00:20:25,811
when she goes against her abuser
or tries to leave.
486
00:20:25,846 --> 00:20:28,681
This is exactly why
domestic violence laws
487
00:20:28,715 --> 00:20:30,049
were changed in New York,
488
00:20:30,083 --> 00:20:33,686
to protect people
who are unable or unwilling
489
00:20:33,720 --> 00:20:35,020
to protect themselves.
490
00:20:35,055 --> 00:20:38,057
Just because a person
can't admit
491
00:20:38,091 --> 00:20:42,328
or is in denial
about their abuse,
492
00:20:42,362 --> 00:20:47,566
doesn't meant that the abuse
didn't happen, or won't worsen.
493
00:20:47,601 --> 00:20:50,102
Thank you.
494
00:20:50,136 --> 00:20:51,670
Sergeant Benson,
495
00:20:51,705 --> 00:20:55,808
did Mrs. Martin express fear
of her husband to you?
496
00:20:55,842 --> 00:20:56,976
Not directly, no.
497
00:20:57,010 --> 00:20:59,245
Did she cite financial
or emotional dependence
498
00:20:59,279 --> 00:21:01,280
as reasons not to testify?
499
00:21:01,314 --> 00:21:02,681
She did not.
500
00:21:02,716 --> 00:21:04,717
So it's possible
the reason she's not testifying,
501
00:21:04,751 --> 00:21:06,252
the reason she married
Mr. Martin,
502
00:21:06,286 --> 00:21:07,786
is because she's
in love with him
503
00:21:07,821 --> 00:21:09,588
and believes he'll be
a good husband.
504
00:21:09,623 --> 00:21:11,490
That's not what I saw
on the video.
505
00:21:11,525 --> 00:21:14,326
You do know my client
has expressed regret
506
00:21:14,361 --> 00:21:19,064
and agreed to anger management
and spiritual counseling.
507
00:21:19,099 --> 00:21:21,100
Yes, and I've
heard that before.
508
00:21:21,134 --> 00:21:24,703
Sergeant, do you believe
in the rehabilitative power
509
00:21:24,738 --> 00:21:26,205
of anger management?
510
00:21:29,109 --> 00:21:30,242
Not always, no.
511
00:21:30,277 --> 00:21:32,044
Wasn't a detective
in your squad
512
00:21:32,078 --> 00:21:34,713
who severely beat a civilian
513
00:21:34,748 --> 00:21:36,248
recently returned to active duty
514
00:21:36,283 --> 00:21:38,984
after a short stint
in anger management?
515
00:21:39,019 --> 00:21:40,186
Objection, relevance.
516
00:21:40,220 --> 00:21:43,022
Goes to her expert opinion,
your honor.
517
00:21:43,056 --> 00:21:44,890
Witness may answer.
518
00:21:48,395 --> 00:21:50,296
My detective lost his temper
519
00:21:50,330 --> 00:21:54,600
with a horrific child abuser,
520
00:21:54,634 --> 00:21:56,335
not his wife.
521
00:21:56,369 --> 00:21:57,703
But your point is,
522
00:21:57,737 --> 00:22:00,739
anger management
is sufficient enough
523
00:22:00,774 --> 00:22:04,210
for a violent police officer
to get his gun back
524
00:22:04,244 --> 00:22:07,112
but insufficient
to rehabilitate A.J. Martin,
525
00:22:07,147 --> 00:22:09,782
a man without so much
as a prior speeding ticket.
526
00:22:09,816 --> 00:22:10,983
Objection, your honor.
527
00:22:11,017 --> 00:22:12,051
I'm sorry.
528
00:22:12,085 --> 00:22:13,385
I won't ask anymore questions
529
00:22:13,420 --> 00:22:16,222
about the sergeant's
double standard.
530
00:22:16,256 --> 00:22:17,656
Withdrawn.
531
00:22:27,901 --> 00:22:29,168
I grew up in a home
532
00:22:29,202 --> 00:22:31,737
where my father took his fists
to my mother.
533
00:22:31,771 --> 00:22:34,140
We lived in fear.
534
00:22:34,174 --> 00:22:38,577
What A.J. did,
there's no excuse, ever.
535
00:22:38,612 --> 00:22:40,246
- Hey.
- Hey.
536
00:22:41,948 --> 00:22:43,682
I started without you.
537
00:22:43,717 --> 00:22:45,785
Went to the gym first.
What she's having, please.
538
00:22:45,819 --> 00:22:47,052
And a refill, please.
539
00:22:47,087 --> 00:22:49,088
You can make it neat this time.
540
00:22:52,559 --> 00:22:54,026
You okay?
541
00:22:54,060 --> 00:22:55,961
That was rough.
542
00:22:55,996 --> 00:22:57,763
Well, Calhoun's
just doing her job.
543
00:22:57,797 --> 00:23:01,567
Yeah, but she had no right
to go after you like that.
544
00:23:01,601 --> 00:23:02,668
She's got a point, though.
545
00:23:02,702 --> 00:23:03,769
Yeah.
546
00:23:03,804 --> 00:23:06,772
- What point is that?
- That it's a private...
547
00:23:06,806 --> 00:23:09,108
Private matter
between Paula Martin
548
00:23:09,142 --> 00:23:11,911
and her husband.
549
00:23:11,945 --> 00:23:13,279
I just think we're overreaching.
550
00:23:13,313 --> 00:23:15,614
Amanda, he hit her, right?
551
00:23:15,649 --> 00:23:17,016
End of story.
Cheers.
552
00:23:17,050 --> 00:23:21,787
Wait, so we get to decide
what's best for her?
553
00:23:21,822 --> 00:23:23,756
That's infantilizing.
554
00:23:23,790 --> 00:23:26,025
That's...
555
00:23:27,294 --> 00:23:30,296
That's us making her a victim
all over again.
556
00:23:30,330 --> 00:23:32,098
All right, just take it easy.
557
00:23:34,468 --> 00:23:36,135
You counting my drinks now?
558
00:23:40,373 --> 00:23:41,707
Saint Nick?
559
00:23:41,741 --> 00:23:43,676
Right?
Savior of damaged women?
560
00:23:43,710 --> 00:23:44,677
Stop.
561
00:23:44,711 --> 00:23:45,711
All I'm saying is,
562
00:23:45,745 --> 00:23:47,213
no man has a right
to hit a woman.
563
00:23:47,247 --> 00:23:48,681
That's right.
That's right.
564
00:23:48,715 --> 00:23:51,917
But some of us
don't need to be saved.
565
00:23:51,952 --> 00:23:55,354
Okay, like, you married
a woman who didn't, right?
566
00:23:55,388 --> 00:23:56,722
Maria?
Ha ha.
567
00:23:56,756 --> 00:23:58,824
I saw the way she went
after you in the squad...
568
00:23:58,859 --> 00:24:00,059
I never laid a hand on Maria.
569
00:24:00,093 --> 00:24:03,395
Yeah, but you never wanted to?
Not at all?
570
00:24:03,430 --> 00:24:04,830
She got to you.
571
00:24:04,865 --> 00:24:06,999
- She still gets to you.
- Right.
572
00:24:07,033 --> 00:24:09,235
Huh, that doesn't get to you?
573
00:24:09,269 --> 00:24:10,936
- No.
- Hmm?
574
00:24:12,439 --> 00:24:13,606
Come on.
575
00:24:13,640 --> 00:24:15,207
Like that?
That wouldn't get to you?
576
00:24:15,242 --> 00:24:16,208
- No.
- Really?
577
00:24:16,243 --> 00:24:17,209
How about that?
578
00:24:17,244 --> 00:24:18,310
Come on, Nick, I know it does.
579
00:24:18,345 --> 00:24:19,745
Are you jealous of Maria now?
580
00:24:19,780 --> 00:24:21,881
- Is that what's happening here?
- Really?
581
00:24:21,915 --> 00:24:23,415
That's where you're going?
582
00:24:23,450 --> 00:24:24,750
Wait, what are we
talking about here?
583
00:24:24,785 --> 00:24:26,152
- Just... you, Nick.
- Hey.
584
00:24:26,186 --> 00:24:27,787
No, no, no, just drop the rock.
585
00:24:27,821 --> 00:24:29,221
- Settle down.
- No, no, no.
586
00:24:29,256 --> 00:24:31,090
We've just all seen you.
We've all seen you lose it.
587
00:24:31,124 --> 00:24:32,258
The whole squad room heard you
588
00:24:32,292 --> 00:24:34,026
yelling at your wife
on the phone.
589
00:24:34,061 --> 00:24:35,895
Okay, I'm just say...
Listen!
590
00:24:35,929 --> 00:24:37,897
Paula Martin
has the right to choose
591
00:24:37,931 --> 00:24:40,199
whether she presses charges
or not.
592
00:24:40,233 --> 00:24:41,534
- All right.
- Okay?
593
00:24:41,568 --> 00:24:42,668
'Cause some of us
don't want to be victims.
594
00:24:42,702 --> 00:24:44,203
She doesn't want to be
a victim.
595
00:24:44,237 --> 00:24:45,204
Hey!
596
00:24:45,238 --> 00:24:47,473
Ah.
597
00:24:51,044 --> 00:24:52,578
You know what?
598
00:24:52,612 --> 00:24:53,879
Sorry.
599
00:24:53,914 --> 00:24:57,116
I'm gonna do what A.J. Martin
should have done.
600
00:24:57,150 --> 00:24:58,684
Walk away.
601
00:24:58,718 --> 00:25:00,886
Hey...
602
00:25:11,023 --> 00:25:14,509
A.J. Martin's actions
constitute behavior that we
603
00:25:14,544 --> 00:25:17,109
cannot and will not tolerate
604
00:25:17,240 --> 00:25:19,541
from either current athletes
or retired players.
605
00:25:19,576 --> 00:25:21,176
The league wants
to send a message
606
00:25:21,211 --> 00:25:24,213
and send it
very loud and clear.
607
00:25:24,247 --> 00:25:26,882
Never, ever is there an excuse
608
00:25:26,916 --> 00:25:29,451
for domestic violence
or child abuse.
609
00:25:29,485 --> 00:25:30,886
I'll take your questions.
610
00:25:30,920 --> 00:25:32,688
This guy's got no friends left.
611
00:25:32,722 --> 00:25:34,757
Yeah, so she gets tarred too?
612
00:25:34,791 --> 00:25:36,191
Talk about brutalization.
613
00:25:36,226 --> 00:25:38,794
I mean, how is this fair
to Paula Martin?
614
00:25:38,828 --> 00:25:41,563
This video being played
over and over.
615
00:25:41,598 --> 00:25:42,831
It's the worst night
of her life
616
00:25:42,866 --> 00:25:45,501
for our entertainment.
617
00:25:45,535 --> 00:25:47,569
You're preaching to the choir.
618
00:25:47,604 --> 00:25:49,004
But he did hit her, Amanda.
619
00:25:49,038 --> 00:25:50,539
All I know is,
you can't save somebody
620
00:25:50,573 --> 00:25:53,208
that doesn't want to be saved.
Trust me, I've tried.
621
00:25:53,243 --> 00:25:55,644
Nick agree with that?
622
00:25:55,678 --> 00:25:59,081
Nick thinks he can save
the whole wide world.
623
00:26:00,517 --> 00:26:02,284
Listen.
624
00:26:02,318 --> 00:26:06,388
I've learned two things
in my 15 years here at SVU.
625
00:26:06,422 --> 00:26:09,925
One is you can't take
this job home with you.
626
00:26:09,959 --> 00:26:11,320
Working on that.
627
00:26:11,578 --> 00:26:16,148
Two is you can't take anyone
from this job home with you.
628
00:26:16,182 --> 00:26:18,083
Right.
629
00:26:18,118 --> 00:26:20,819
I just want you
to take care of yourself, okay?
630
00:26:20,854 --> 00:26:23,789
I hear you, Fin.
631
00:26:23,823 --> 00:26:26,024
I hear you.
632
00:26:26,722 --> 00:26:28,223
_
633
00:26:28,258 --> 00:26:29,895
A.J. and Paula
are two good people
634
00:26:29,929 --> 00:26:31,096
who love one another,
635
00:26:31,131 --> 00:26:34,166
but they both grew up
in homes where...
636
00:26:34,200 --> 00:26:36,702
Disputes got physical.
637
00:26:36,736 --> 00:26:40,272
I mean, this is learned behavior
they're trying to change.
638
00:26:40,306 --> 00:26:41,974
I see.
And have you ever witnessed
639
00:26:42,008 --> 00:26:44,710
an incident that troubled you?
640
00:26:46,846 --> 00:26:48,080
They both told me separately
641
00:26:48,114 --> 00:26:50,182
that their behavior
has troubled them,
642
00:26:50,216 --> 00:26:52,785
and so they're working
on finding positive ways
643
00:26:52,819 --> 00:26:54,686
to communicate.
644
00:26:54,721 --> 00:26:56,588
You were
at their recent wedding.
645
00:26:56,623 --> 00:26:58,690
I performed the ceremony.
646
00:26:58,725 --> 00:27:00,659
They did wait to get married,
647
00:27:00,693 --> 00:27:02,828
but these two have been
committed to each other
648
00:27:02,862 --> 00:27:04,229
for ten years.
649
00:27:04,264 --> 00:27:05,864
They're raising a wonderful son.
650
00:27:05,899 --> 00:27:11,570
Theirs is a solid, loving
christian marriage of equals.
651
00:27:11,604 --> 00:27:13,439
Thank you, reverend.
652
00:27:14,941 --> 00:27:17,276
A marriage of equals, reverend?
653
00:27:17,310 --> 00:27:18,477
That's right.
654
00:27:18,511 --> 00:27:21,447
Even though he out-earns her
by 100 times?
655
00:27:21,481 --> 00:27:23,515
Don't you think that might
make her dependent on him?
656
00:27:23,550 --> 00:27:25,217
He depends on her as well,
657
00:27:25,251 --> 00:27:26,752
to make their home,
raise their child.
658
00:27:26,786 --> 00:27:28,687
The majority of the time
you've spent with the Martins
659
00:27:28,721 --> 00:27:29,688
has been in counseling?
660
00:27:29,722 --> 00:27:30,956
I see them in church as well.
661
00:27:30,990 --> 00:27:33,659
But you weren't
in the garage that night.
662
00:27:33,693 --> 00:27:36,228
Have you been with them when
Mr. Martin has been drinking?
663
00:27:36,262 --> 00:27:39,264
Drinking is another issue
that they're working on.
664
00:27:39,299 --> 00:27:41,800
Is it fair to say
that you don't know
665
00:27:41,835 --> 00:27:43,736
how Mr. Martin acts
towards his wife
666
00:27:43,770 --> 00:27:45,337
when they're not
on their best behavior?
667
00:27:45,372 --> 00:27:46,905
I have never witnessed anything
668
00:27:46,940 --> 00:27:49,741
other than a genuine love
for each other.
669
00:27:49,776 --> 00:27:53,112
Reverend, as a moral man,
670
00:27:53,146 --> 00:27:55,414
what did you think of the video
671
00:27:55,448 --> 00:28:00,018
that shows Mr. Martin
clearly punching his wife?
672
00:28:00,053 --> 00:28:01,520
I didn't watch it.
673
00:28:01,554 --> 00:28:03,589
Is that because Mr. Martin's
lawyer advised you not to?
674
00:28:03,623 --> 00:28:06,225
- Objection.
- Withdrawn.
675
00:28:06,259 --> 00:28:07,559
Nothing further.
676
00:28:10,797 --> 00:28:12,397
I love my wife.
677
00:28:12,432 --> 00:28:13,832
She's my life,
678
00:28:13,867 --> 00:28:16,268
the mother of my son.
679
00:28:16,302 --> 00:28:19,204
I will always regret that night.
680
00:28:19,239 --> 00:28:21,673
But I swear to God,
I didn't intend to hurt her.
681
00:28:21,708 --> 00:28:23,942
That video may seem damning,
682
00:28:23,977 --> 00:28:27,479
and you know the prosecutor
is going to use it against you.
683
00:28:27,514 --> 00:28:28,747
Can you tell the jury
684
00:28:28,782 --> 00:28:32,651
why you decided
to testify today?
685
00:28:32,685 --> 00:28:34,119
Paula has had the strength
686
00:28:34,154 --> 00:28:36,388
to sit in this courtroom
every day.
687
00:28:36,423 --> 00:28:40,459
I'm filled with such humility,
admiration,
688
00:28:40,493 --> 00:28:44,863
and such deep gratitude.
689
00:28:44,898 --> 00:28:47,599
If she can be brave enough
to sit in here,
690
00:28:47,634 --> 00:28:50,903
I can be brave enough too.
691
00:28:50,937 --> 00:28:54,540
I want to take responsibility.
692
00:28:54,574 --> 00:28:58,577
I want to teach my son
what it means to be a man.
693
00:28:58,611 --> 00:29:00,145
Thank you.
694
00:29:00,180 --> 00:29:02,114
Mr. Martin, do you believe
695
00:29:02,148 --> 00:29:03,816
that teaching your son
to be a man
696
00:29:03,850 --> 00:29:05,384
means teaching him
to tell the truth?
697
00:29:05,418 --> 00:29:06,685
Yes, I do.
698
00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:08,921
Yet, on the night
of the incident,
699
00:29:08,955 --> 00:29:12,257
you told the police that your
wife had slipped and fallen,
700
00:29:12,292 --> 00:29:13,459
which was untrue.
701
00:29:13,493 --> 00:29:15,561
Yes.
702
00:29:15,595 --> 00:29:17,830
But I know now
that that was wrong.
703
00:29:17,864 --> 00:29:19,231
Now that the video
has been made public
704
00:29:19,265 --> 00:29:20,399
and you're on trial?
705
00:29:20,433 --> 00:29:22,101
I was trying
to protect my family.
706
00:29:22,135 --> 00:29:23,335
You mean yourself.
707
00:29:23,370 --> 00:29:25,304
I want to talk
about this moment.
708
00:29:27,140 --> 00:29:28,707
Your testimony, under oath,
709
00:29:28,742 --> 00:29:31,777
is that you did not
deliberately strike your wife.
710
00:29:31,811 --> 00:29:33,412
I put up my hand to stop her.
711
00:29:33,446 --> 00:29:36,281
- It was a reflex action.
- So it's her fault?
712
00:29:36,316 --> 00:29:38,684
I did not intend to hurt her.
713
00:29:38,718 --> 00:29:39,918
Then why didn't you call 911?
714
00:29:39,953 --> 00:29:42,054
Because she came to
in a few minutes.
715
00:29:42,088 --> 00:29:43,589
You were
a professional athlete.
716
00:29:43,623 --> 00:29:45,591
You're aware of the potential
dangers of losing consciousness,
717
00:29:45,625 --> 00:29:46,959
even for a brief time.
718
00:29:46,993 --> 00:29:48,527
And yet,
you chose to ignore that?
719
00:29:48,561 --> 00:29:50,262
I made a judgment call.
720
00:29:50,296 --> 00:29:51,864
You made a judgment call?
721
00:29:51,898 --> 00:29:53,632
To punch a woman in the face,
722
00:29:53,667 --> 00:29:56,235
to drag her unconscious body
across a garage,
723
00:29:56,269 --> 00:29:58,904
and attempt to get out of there
before anyone could find out?
724
00:29:58,938 --> 00:30:00,706
- Objection.
- How dare you... I love my wife.
725
00:30:00,740 --> 00:30:01,774
I have no doubt that you do.
726
00:30:01,808 --> 00:30:02,975
Your honor.
727
00:30:03,009 --> 00:30:04,276
It's a cross-examination,
Ms. Calhoun.
728
00:30:04,311 --> 00:30:05,277
I'll allow it.
729
00:30:05,311 --> 00:30:06,278
Did you love her here,
730
00:30:06,312 --> 00:30:08,113
when you were manhandling her?
731
00:30:08,148 --> 00:30:09,982
How about here,
732
00:30:10,016 --> 00:30:12,151
when your fist connected
with her face?
733
00:30:12,185 --> 00:30:13,552
Or did you really love her here,
734
00:30:13,586 --> 00:30:14,987
when you were dragging
her limp body
735
00:30:15,021 --> 00:30:16,989
like a bag of garbage
with no evident concern?
736
00:30:17,023 --> 00:30:18,123
Objection.
737
00:30:18,158 --> 00:30:21,126
All right, Mr. Barba,
time to move along.
738
00:30:22,362 --> 00:30:24,863
He opened the door, your honor.
739
00:30:24,898 --> 00:30:27,666
But if this is how Mr. Martin
shows he loves his wife,
740
00:30:27,701 --> 00:30:29,234
then I'm done.
741
00:30:36,876 --> 00:30:39,411
Before we bring the jury
back in from lunch,
742
00:30:39,446 --> 00:30:41,814
are you prepared for your
closing argument, Ms. Calhoun?
743
00:30:41,848 --> 00:30:42,915
Actually, your honor,
744
00:30:42,949 --> 00:30:44,783
I would like to call
one last witness,
745
00:30:44,818 --> 00:30:47,453
Paula Martin.
746
00:30:47,487 --> 00:30:48,754
Your honor, approach?
747
00:30:54,761 --> 00:30:56,295
This witness was not
on the list.
748
00:30:56,329 --> 00:30:58,864
Mrs. Martin only now
decided to testify.
749
00:30:58,898 --> 00:31:00,899
She saw her marriage
and her husband attacked.
750
00:31:00,934 --> 00:31:02,201
She wants to defend.
751
00:31:02,235 --> 00:31:03,402
She has been sitting
in this courtroom
752
00:31:03,436 --> 00:31:04,937
the entire trial.
753
00:31:04,971 --> 00:31:07,439
She lives with the defendant.
754
00:31:07,474 --> 00:31:11,877
Whatever she heard in court,
she's already heard at home.
755
00:31:11,911 --> 00:31:13,545
I'll allow it.
756
00:31:19,352 --> 00:31:21,587
Hey, how's it looking?
757
00:31:21,621 --> 00:31:23,389
Seven women on the jury,
domestic violence.
758
00:31:23,423 --> 00:31:24,390
You know the drill.
759
00:31:24,424 --> 00:31:25,557
Okay, so at least two of them
760
00:31:25,592 --> 00:31:27,259
will be looking to blame her
and excuse him.
761
00:31:27,294 --> 00:31:28,827
Next problem,
Calhoun sandbagged me.
762
00:31:28,862 --> 00:31:30,229
She's putting Paula
on the stand.
763
00:31:30,263 --> 00:31:32,064
- When?
- In two hours.
764
00:31:32,098 --> 00:31:33,999
What do you know about her
and that relationship?
765
00:31:34,034 --> 00:31:35,100
We did our due diligence.
766
00:31:35,135 --> 00:31:36,769
Good, talk to me.
767
00:31:37,485 --> 00:31:39,043
_
768
00:31:39,372 --> 00:31:42,408
When my husband
says he loves me,
769
00:31:42,442 --> 00:31:44,209
it's the truth.
770
00:31:44,244 --> 00:31:46,478
I was drunk that night.
771
00:31:46,513 --> 00:31:49,315
I was jealous.
I was going after him.
772
00:31:49,349 --> 00:31:51,617
He put his hand up
to stop me, and I went down.
773
00:31:51,651 --> 00:31:53,285
Is it your testimony
774
00:31:53,320 --> 00:31:56,355
that your husband
is not abusive toward you?
775
00:31:56,389 --> 00:31:58,590
Yes, 100%.
776
00:31:58,625 --> 00:32:02,494
And that night was a private,
personal interaction
777
00:32:02,529 --> 00:32:05,164
between two passionate people?
778
00:32:05,198 --> 00:32:06,732
Absolutely.
779
00:32:06,766 --> 00:32:08,367
If anyone thinks that I'm
sitting here right now
780
00:32:08,401 --> 00:32:11,537
because I'm afraid of A.J.,
781
00:32:11,571 --> 00:32:13,072
it's not true.
782
00:32:13,106 --> 00:32:14,840
You don't know him.
783
00:32:14,874 --> 00:32:17,576
I do.
784
00:32:17,611 --> 00:32:21,580
He is a gentle...
785
00:32:21,614 --> 00:32:24,016
Good man.
786
00:32:24,050 --> 00:32:26,652
He doesn't deserve this.
787
00:32:26,686 --> 00:32:28,887
Our family doesn't deserve this.
788
00:32:28,922 --> 00:32:30,522
Thank you, Mrs. Martin.
789
00:32:35,061 --> 00:32:37,363
Thank you for being here,
Mrs. Martin.
790
00:32:37,397 --> 00:32:39,398
This must be difficult for you.
791
00:32:39,432 --> 00:32:40,399
I'm fine.
792
00:32:40,433 --> 00:32:43,635
- Yes, always, right?
- Excuse me?
793
00:32:43,670 --> 00:32:46,572
Everything is always
good and fine
794
00:32:46,606 --> 00:32:48,374
in the Martin house.
795
00:32:49,943 --> 00:32:51,143
It is.
796
00:32:51,177 --> 00:32:53,345
I'm not gonna replay
that video for you.
797
00:32:53,380 --> 00:32:56,682
I'm sure that you have
suffered through it enough.
798
00:32:56,716 --> 00:32:57,917
Thank you.
799
00:32:57,951 --> 00:32:59,618
I would just like
to ask you a few questions
800
00:32:59,652 --> 00:33:01,320
about your relationship
with A.J.
801
00:33:01,354 --> 00:33:02,588
Okay.
802
00:33:02,622 --> 00:33:07,593
You met him about ten years ago
when you were 21?
803
00:33:07,627 --> 00:33:08,594
Yes.
804
00:33:08,628 --> 00:33:09,928
And he was 35,
805
00:33:09,963 --> 00:33:12,765
toward the end
of his playing career?
806
00:33:12,799 --> 00:33:14,033
And is it true that you had not
807
00:33:14,067 --> 00:33:17,069
had any significant
relationships up until then?
808
00:33:19,773 --> 00:33:23,142
I mean, I've had boyfriends
in the past,
809
00:33:23,176 --> 00:33:25,044
but nothing that serious.
810
00:33:25,078 --> 00:33:26,378
It's okay to answer truthfully.
811
00:33:26,413 --> 00:33:27,446
Your honor.
812
00:33:27,480 --> 00:33:29,081
Get to it, Mr. Barba.
813
00:33:29,115 --> 00:33:32,518
Is A.J. your first
serious relationship?
814
00:33:32,552 --> 00:33:34,954
He's the love of my life.
815
00:33:34,988 --> 00:33:36,355
Still is.
816
00:33:36,389 --> 00:33:38,657
It must have seemed
like a fairy tale.
817
00:33:38,692 --> 00:33:40,793
You moved in with him
after a few months,
818
00:33:40,827 --> 00:33:43,262
and you had A.J. Junior
a few years later?
819
00:33:43,296 --> 00:33:44,797
A few years, yeah.
820
00:33:44,831 --> 00:33:47,066
You were a lifestyle reporter
for the local TV news,
821
00:33:47,100 --> 00:33:49,835
but you gave that up,
didn't you?
822
00:33:49,869 --> 00:33:52,805
I did, willingly.
823
00:33:52,839 --> 00:33:57,076
How many close friends
do you have, besides A.J.?
824
00:33:57,110 --> 00:33:59,311
I'm close to my sister,
825
00:33:59,346 --> 00:34:01,847
to the other
retired players' wives.
826
00:34:01,881 --> 00:34:04,350
When's the last time
you went out with a male friend
827
00:34:04,384 --> 00:34:06,852
or your girlfriends
or even just your sister
828
00:34:06,886 --> 00:34:09,989
without A.J. being there?
829
00:34:10,023 --> 00:34:12,091
Is it fair to say
830
00:34:12,125 --> 00:34:16,362
your life revolves
around A.J. and your son?
831
00:34:16,396 --> 00:34:17,763
I'm proud of that.
832
00:34:17,797 --> 00:34:19,365
I'm happy.
833
00:34:19,399 --> 00:34:20,466
Even when your husband
yells at you?
834
00:34:20,500 --> 00:34:22,134
He doesn't yell at me.
835
00:34:22,168 --> 00:34:23,736
Does he yell at your son?
836
00:34:29,609 --> 00:34:30,743
He doesn't yell.
837
00:34:30,777 --> 00:34:33,879
He raises his voice,
838
00:34:33,913 --> 00:34:36,649
because he wants A.J.
to listen, to behave,
839
00:34:36,683 --> 00:34:38,050
because he loves him.
840
00:34:38,084 --> 00:34:39,785
- The way he loves you?
- Objection.
841
00:34:39,819 --> 00:34:40,853
Rephrase.
842
00:34:40,887 --> 00:34:44,490
When A.J. raises his voice
at Junior,
843
00:34:44,524 --> 00:34:47,726
how does that make you feel?
844
00:34:47,761 --> 00:34:49,895
What does it matter?
845
00:34:49,930 --> 00:34:51,964
Mrs. Martin...
846
00:34:51,998 --> 00:34:55,301
When you see the look
on your son's face,
847
00:34:55,335 --> 00:34:58,404
how does that make you feel?
848
00:34:58,438 --> 00:35:00,873
You don't know
what's right for me,
849
00:35:00,907 --> 00:35:02,875
what's right for our family.
850
00:35:02,909 --> 00:35:04,043
I know it's not healthy
851
00:35:04,077 --> 00:35:05,578
to stay in
an abusive relationship.
852
00:35:05,612 --> 00:35:07,446
Don't you lecture me.
853
00:35:07,480 --> 00:35:08,914
I'm not leaving him,
854
00:35:08,949 --> 00:35:10,749
and I don't care
what any of you have to say.
855
00:35:10,784 --> 00:35:12,851
Any of us?
856
00:35:12,886 --> 00:35:15,721
Have you heard this
from your sister maybe,
857
00:35:15,755 --> 00:35:16,922
or other girlfriends?
858
00:35:16,957 --> 00:35:17,923
Is that why you've
lost touch with them?
859
00:35:17,958 --> 00:35:19,291
No, no one's said that.
860
00:35:19,326 --> 00:35:21,026
Do you realize that you
just looked at your husband
861
00:35:21,061 --> 00:35:22,928
before answering
that question, Mrs. Martin?
862
00:35:22,963 --> 00:35:24,663
Are you that worried,
even in open court,
863
00:35:24,698 --> 00:35:25,664
about how he'll react?
864
00:35:25,699 --> 00:35:26,732
No.
865
00:35:26,766 --> 00:35:27,933
Is that why you lied repeatedly
866
00:35:27,968 --> 00:35:29,335
to the police
about what happened that night?
867
00:35:29,369 --> 00:35:30,903
Why you keep insisting
that it's your fault
868
00:35:30,937 --> 00:35:32,738
that he knocked you unconscious?
869
00:35:32,772 --> 00:35:35,207
Don't look at him.
870
00:35:35,242 --> 00:35:37,376
Mrs. Martin...
871
00:35:37,410 --> 00:35:38,911
He can't answer for you.
872
00:35:38,945 --> 00:35:40,312
You need to answer for yourself.
873
00:35:40,347 --> 00:35:42,181
I don't want to lose him.
874
00:35:43,650 --> 00:35:46,952
I don't want to lose my family.
875
00:35:46,987 --> 00:35:48,754
Why is that wrong?
876
00:35:50,891 --> 00:35:53,592
What gives you the right?
877
00:35:59,532 --> 00:36:03,102
Just leave us be, please.
878
00:36:17,843 --> 00:36:22,803
I rarely think this,
but I actually feel sorry
879
00:36:22,838 --> 00:36:24,781
for the D.A.'s office.
880
00:36:24,816 --> 00:36:27,054
The incredible pressure
they're under
881
00:36:27,088 --> 00:36:28,755
to show they're proactive,
882
00:36:28,790 --> 00:36:32,159
to show they're
politically correct.
883
00:36:32,193 --> 00:36:34,361
And while domestic violence
is a scourge
884
00:36:34,395 --> 00:36:36,897
that should not be tolerated,
885
00:36:36,931 --> 00:36:41,101
this case is not that.
886
00:36:41,135 --> 00:36:43,604
This is a case
of a misunderstanding
887
00:36:43,638 --> 00:36:46,073
between two passionate people.
888
00:36:46,107 --> 00:36:48,308
This is a private matter.
889
00:36:48,543 --> 00:36:51,812
This is not a test case.
890
00:36:51,846 --> 00:36:54,014
Paula Martin loves her husband.
891
00:36:54,048 --> 00:36:57,918
She absolutely did not want
to press charges.
892
00:36:57,952 --> 00:37:00,687
If you convict A.J. Martin,
893
00:37:00,721 --> 00:37:04,057
you will be tearing
a family apart.
894
00:37:04,092 --> 00:37:06,193
You will leave Paula Martin
895
00:37:06,227 --> 00:37:09,529
without a loving,
supportive husband,
896
00:37:09,564 --> 00:37:14,401
leave their son, A.J. Junior,
without a father.
897
00:37:14,435 --> 00:37:19,139
Is that what
the judicial system is for?
898
00:37:19,173 --> 00:37:23,310
To destroy families?
899
00:37:23,344 --> 00:37:26,847
I don't think so.
900
00:37:26,881 --> 00:37:31,885
And I don't believe
any of you think so either.
901
00:37:42,897 --> 00:37:44,064
Ladies and gentlemen,
902
00:37:44,098 --> 00:37:46,633
this case and your decision
are important.
903
00:37:46,667 --> 00:37:47,734
We saw the video.
904
00:37:47,768 --> 00:37:50,103
We heard his excuses,
her denials.
905
00:37:50,138 --> 00:37:52,439
You may be asking,
"how is it any of our business
906
00:37:52,473 --> 00:37:55,042
"to interfere
in another couple's marriage?
907
00:37:55,076 --> 00:37:57,144
We don't know what goes on
behind closed doors."
908
00:37:57,178 --> 00:37:59,579
No, but we do know...
909
00:37:59,614 --> 00:38:02,049
We do know that, as a society,
910
00:38:02,083 --> 00:38:06,520
we have evolved beyond the idea
that women are property,
911
00:38:06,554 --> 00:38:09,489
that what they feel,
what they experience
912
00:38:09,524 --> 00:38:11,692
doesn't matter.
913
00:38:11,726 --> 00:38:13,493
And by hitting Paula,
914
00:38:13,528 --> 00:38:15,929
by knocking her out,
915
00:38:15,963 --> 00:38:20,300
A.J. Martin is saying
she doesn't matter.
916
00:38:20,334 --> 00:38:23,837
He showed gross disregard
for her safety,
917
00:38:23,871 --> 00:38:25,806
for her very life.
918
00:38:25,840 --> 00:38:28,975
Now, she has a child with him.
919
00:38:29,010 --> 00:38:31,011
She loves him.
920
00:38:31,045 --> 00:38:34,114
Convicting her husband
may not be what she wants.
921
00:38:34,148 --> 00:38:39,820
But to not convict him
is plainly and simply wrong.
922
00:38:39,854 --> 00:38:41,755
It sends a message
923
00:38:41,789 --> 00:38:45,525
that it is okay to be a bully
in your own home,
924
00:38:45,560 --> 00:38:47,894
to control, to intimidate,
925
00:38:47,929 --> 00:38:50,263
to physically injure
your spouse.
926
00:38:50,298 --> 00:38:52,466
This is not okay.
927
00:38:52,500 --> 00:38:54,201
We must not stand by
928
00:38:54,235 --> 00:38:57,471
and by our silence say
that it is acceptable
929
00:38:57,505 --> 00:39:00,140
to look the other way.
930
00:39:00,174 --> 00:39:02,476
Physical violence
against another human being
931
00:39:02,510 --> 00:39:06,246
is a crime...
932
00:39:06,280 --> 00:39:10,550
Even if she is just your wife.
933
00:39:30,304 --> 00:39:31,772
Hey.
934
00:39:31,806 --> 00:39:33,140
Hey.
935
00:39:35,009 --> 00:39:37,377
Liv, what's the word
with Barba?
936
00:39:37,411 --> 00:39:38,545
Biting his nails,
937
00:39:38,579 --> 00:39:40,680
or whatever it is
that Barba does.
938
00:39:40,715 --> 00:39:42,182
The jury's now questioning
939
00:39:42,216 --> 00:39:44,151
whether or not
the video was doctored.
940
00:39:44,185 --> 00:39:45,719
They're trying to find
a reason to acquit.
941
00:39:45,753 --> 00:39:46,953
They know it doesn't feel right.
942
00:39:46,988 --> 00:39:49,289
And sending the two
of them home does?
943
00:39:49,323 --> 00:39:50,857
That boy growing up in fear?
944
00:39:50,892 --> 00:39:53,627
I just think
A.J.'s learned his lesson.
945
00:39:53,661 --> 00:39:54,695
You do?
946
00:39:56,464 --> 00:39:58,799
I don't.
947
00:40:00,692 --> 00:40:03,237
_
948
00:40:03,671 --> 00:40:05,706
Has the jury reached a verdict?
949
00:40:05,740 --> 00:40:07,407
We have, your honor.
950
00:40:07,442 --> 00:40:08,775
What say you?
951
00:40:08,810 --> 00:40:11,878
On the charge
of reckless endangerment,
952
00:40:11,913 --> 00:40:14,247
we find the defendant guilty.
953
00:40:16,184 --> 00:40:17,551
Antwan Jarrod Martin,
954
00:40:17,585 --> 00:40:19,820
you are remanded to Rikers
pending sentencing.
955
00:40:19,854 --> 00:40:21,755
- But, your honor...
- Members of the jury,
956
00:40:21,789 --> 00:40:24,324
we thank you for your service.
957
00:40:24,359 --> 00:40:25,525
It's okay, A.J.
958
00:40:25,560 --> 00:40:26,560
It's gonna be fine.
959
00:40:26,594 --> 00:40:27,794
Antwan.
960
00:40:27,829 --> 00:40:29,262
But you'll need to go
with the officers.
961
00:40:29,297 --> 00:40:30,364
A.J.
962
00:40:31,699 --> 00:40:33,266
A.J.
963
00:40:36,871 --> 00:40:38,505
A.J.
964
00:40:46,547 --> 00:40:47,914
What do you think
he's looking at?
965
00:40:47,949 --> 00:40:49,349
He'll get the minimum,
two years.
966
00:40:49,384 --> 00:40:50,550
Sends a message.
967
00:40:54,522 --> 00:40:55,622
I hope you're happy.
968
00:40:55,657 --> 00:40:56,690
Paula, let's go.
969
00:40:56,724 --> 00:40:59,326
I lost a husband.
My son lost his father.
970
00:40:59,360 --> 00:41:01,128
Paula, you deserve
better than that.
971
00:41:01,162 --> 00:41:02,162
So does your son.
972
00:41:02,196 --> 00:41:03,797
What the hell
do you know about it?
973
00:41:03,831 --> 00:41:05,065
I was happy.
974
00:41:05,099 --> 00:41:06,233
I was fine.
975
00:41:06,267 --> 00:41:07,834
Me and my son,
we were just making it work.
976
00:41:07,869 --> 00:41:09,369
It was my choice!
977
00:41:09,404 --> 00:41:10,904
And you took that away.
978
00:41:10,938 --> 00:41:13,640
You think A.J.
was beating me up?
979
00:41:13,675 --> 00:41:15,642
What do you think you did?
980
00:41:27,789 --> 00:41:30,424
We did the right thing.
981
00:41:30,458 --> 00:41:31,792
I know.
982
00:41:36,522 --> 00:41:38,809
