00:00Oh, this guy she was arguing with.
00:02Well, if I'll let her, the things I'm never gonna get involved with,
00:05no way, no how, no siree, bah!
00:07I'm gonna win her over the old-fashioned way.
00:10Catch me up on the case.
00:11Yup. Raymond Harris spent 26 years in jail
00:14as a convicted serial murderer-slash-rapist,
00:17but was recently exonerated through DNA evidence.
00:20Now, the police department was definitely dirty back then.
00:22Tons of misconduct.
00:23But in order to get the payout that he deserves,
00:25we, we need to find the smoking gun.
00:27Why is everybody so sure there is one?
00:29Well, because we got a tip from a guy who got a tip from his dead uncle,
00:32who was a retired cop.
00:33Oh, Lord.
00:34Yeah, anyway, apparently a prostitute escaped a really similar attack
00:38while Raymond was still in custody.
00:40Stalking around the neck the whole night.
00:42Word is she went down to the station to file a report,
00:44only there's no record of it, which means if it exists, it was buried.
00:48Well, I'm guessing you can't find the prostitute from 26 years ago.
00:51I don't know her name, much less if she's alive.
00:54There's a lot of invisible people in the world.
00:57In the partners meeting, Olympia said something about a sketch.
01:00Well, that's complicated.
01:02I'm sorry.
01:03How, how did you get into the partners meeting?
01:06That's a long story.
01:07I'll tell you about it next time we share something salty.
01:10Is there anything else I need to know to get on Olympia's good side?
01:14Never give your opinion to a client.
01:16Leave that to her.
