00:18Yeah, copy that. You got 15 squad on the scene, man.
00:21Kid got stomped.
00:23D.O.A.
00:24He's still alive, but the skull's bashing.
00:26She saw it, and those guys over there.
00:29I'll go talk to these guys.
00:31All right.
00:32What's her name?
00:33Marie Vellucci.
00:35All right, thanks.
00:36Marie? Hi, I'm Detective Simone.
00:38I guess he's dead. Isn't he? Is he dead?
00:42They say he's pretty badly hurt. Can you tell me what you saw?
00:46Um, there was two of them.
00:48The first guy came up with a baseball bat, and he knocked him down,
00:52and then he started hitting him and kicking him and stuff.
00:56And then another one, he came up in a car, jumped out, and hit him and kicked him too.
01:01And that's when I went over there to the grocery, and he was yelling to them in Italian.
01:06Who's that?
01:07The grocer was. Then they just jumped in the car and drove away.
01:11Did you get a look at a license plate number on the car?
01:14No, I didn't really get a chance to look at the car. It was an ordinary car. It was blue.
01:19Can you tell me anything else about these guys?
01:21They looked really strong.
01:23What kind of guys? Were they white guys, black guys?
01:26Yeah, they were white.
01:27White guys.
01:28Um, they had dark hair.
01:30Mm-hmm.
01:31We really appreciate your help on this.
01:33The cops got your name and your address and your phone number and all that?
01:36Yeah.
01:37We're gonna be calling you again. Is that all right?
01:39That's okay.
01:43Hey, hey, let me talk to you, sir.
01:44I gotta go to the lavatory.
01:45Yeah, I'm Detective Sipowitz.
01:47Walter Hoyt.
01:48Did you see this, uh, assault here, Walter?
01:51Bruno and I did.
01:52Yeah, well, Bruno doesn't speak too much English.
01:55No, he speaks Italian.
01:57I'll tell you, I'm shaking all over what happened to you.
01:59Which was what?
02:01Well, Bruno was making me my sandwich.
02:03I get breakfast here every morning.
02:05Salami sandwich, don't I, Bruno?
02:07Salami.
02:08Si, si.
02:09Yeah, I won't be having a sandwich this morning.
02:12Those guys went crazy.
02:13They beat that poor kid to a pulp.
02:15It was sickening.
02:16Did you ever see these guys before?
02:18I see the kid.
02:19They stomped around, you know, I think.
02:21How about the guys that beat him up?
02:23Uh, I didn't recognize them.
02:24How would you describe them?
02:26Mesomorphs.
02:29Mesomorphs?
02:30Two mesomorphs.
02:32I don't know what that is.
02:34Muscly guys.
02:36What, are you some kind of teacher?
02:38Um, Peter, I got a loft up the street.
02:41Just came over the radio.
02:42Kids DOA.
02:48Two mesomorphs.
02:49Guys are as good as in custody.
02:52Talk to you all.
02:53Daddy Joe is all over it.
02:55Love is frozen..
03:00Geez.
03:21That's the recording.
04:54Detective Martinez can help you.
04:57I see you still got the pennant.
04:59I still have it.
05:01It was some night, huh?
05:03Ah, Detective Martinez, this gentleman has just filed a vandalism report.
05:08I held with Tansky.
05:09James Martinez.
05:11Have a seat, Harold.
05:14Thanks, Donna.
05:17I'll see what you got there.
05:21Went after your car, huh, Harold?
05:22Yeah, they did a job.
05:24I faced the side panels, punctured the tires.
05:27Any idea who did it?
05:28No, no idea.
05:30Got to the bar around 8 at night.
05:32I closed at 4 a.m.
05:34That's when I found it.
05:35And this happened once before?
05:37Five days ago.
05:38Pricks punctured the tires on the side so they can't be patched.
05:41I'll tell you the truth, Harold.
05:43This type of case has what we call a low solvability factor.
05:47Well, I'm only here because my insurance guy said if I didn't talk to you, he can't pay the client.
05:52Without any leads or witnesses, we take your report and close it out.
05:56What do you got here, James?
05:59This gentleman's filing a criminal mischief report.
06:03This is Greg Meadowboy, another detective in the squad.
06:07You're Harold Rutansky, right?
06:08That's right.
06:10You guys know each other?
06:11Harold's a hockey player.
06:13He used to play for the Rangers.
06:14No kidding.
06:15Sorry for not recognizing you.
06:16I'm not much of a hockey guy.
06:18It's no problem.
06:19I'm retired anyway.
06:21I'm Miss Abandondo.
06:22He's a big Rangers fan.
06:24Oh, yeah, Harold knows.
06:25Don't you, Harold?
06:27Harold used to see our Miss Abandondo socially.
06:32I did, right.
06:35When I moved back here, I called Donna up.
06:38Greg answered her phone.
06:40Did that happen to be you?
06:41Yeah, yeah, that was me.
06:44Glad to meet you, Greg.
06:46Yeah, yeah, you too.
06:48Harold Scott had been to last twice.
06:51Oh, is that right?
06:52I explained to him without leads, you know,
06:54and there's not much we can do.
06:56Uh, you weren't, uh, seeing a married woman
07:01or, uh, a girl with a boyfriend?
07:04I don't like to complicate my life.
07:06Of course, you go out with women, they don't always tell you.
07:10Well, anyway, here's your report number, all right?
07:13Just give that to your insurance company.
07:16Thanks.
07:21Glad to meet you, Greg.
07:22Yeah, yeah.
07:23So long.
07:23She went out with him, huh?
07:32Yeah.
07:34That's the jerk she went out with.
07:36Can I, uh, put you on hold for a minute, please?
07:41Sorry about your car, Harold.
07:43Yeah, this is twice.
07:44I guess somebody's got it in for me.
07:46I met Greg.
07:50I saw.
07:53So you bought into that bar, huh?
07:56What, did you get my card?
07:57Two free drinks.
07:59I got it.
08:00You ought to stop in sometime, Donna.
08:03I don't know, Harold.
08:05You can bring Greg if you like.
08:08I don't know.
08:10Anyway, take care of yourself.
08:13You're two.
08:26What number did they say?
08:28Twenty-three.
08:36Excuse me.
08:37Uh, Carlos, where do I live here?
08:40Uh, he's not home.
08:43I'm his mother.
08:44We're with the police department.
08:46I'm Detective Sipowitz.
08:47This is Detective Samoa.
08:50What do you want Carlos for?
08:51Can we go inside and talk to Miss Herrera?
08:53Where is it?
08:55Miss Herrera, your son was attacked on the street today.
08:59What do you mean, attack?
09:01Is he hurt?
09:02Yeah, I'm afraid so.
09:04He was hurt bad.
09:06He was badly beaten.
09:08Miss Herrera, Carlos is dead.
09:11We're very sorry, ma'am.
09:17Why did this happen?
09:19We don't know.
09:21We're wondering if you would know of anyone who might want to do this to him.
09:27Yeah.
09:29Do you know if he was in some kind of a gang?
09:31Chato's not like that.
09:35He don't do that stuff.
09:37He had a job.
09:38He goes to school.
09:40Could he maybe have known somebody who was dealing drugs?
09:45I, I, I don't know.
09:47This happened in Little Italy.
09:49Do you know why he might have been there?
09:51Where he went?
09:52Esa mujer de la calle.
09:56I see.
09:57She was with his girlfriend.
10:00Do you know her name, where we could find her?
10:03Amalia Lopez.
10:05She's, um, is down there on Canal Street.
10:10She's working at the Jimenez Brothers there.
10:16Mr. Herrera, this is my phone number.
10:21We would like to talk to you more when you feel you can.
10:26And we do want you to know how very sorry we are.
10:28So we got two eyewitnesses that reported it the same way.
10:49One guy chases the kick down on the foot, beats him with a bat, and then kicks him.
10:53And the other one comes up in a blue car, and then he joins in.
10:56Nobody got the license right.
10:58Do you hear anything?
10:59Racial slurs?
11:00No.
11:01Sounds like maybe a drug burn.
11:03Yeah.
11:03For what it's worth, this, uh, Chato's mother didn't know of any drug or gang involvement.
11:09She thinks she was on his way to see a girlfriend.
11:11You know how to find a girlfriend?
11:12Yeah.
11:13We're going to talk to her as soon as we get done with the ME.
11:15Okay.
11:21I, I got the ME anyway.
11:25How's it going?
11:27Fair.
11:28Some guy snatched my purse up at the 27.
11:33Sylvia, did he hurt you?
11:34No, I'm, I'm okay.
11:36I, um, I was just finished taking a statement there, and I was on my way to the subway, and
11:42he came up behind me, and he grabbed my purse strap off my shoulder and just took off.
11:48Sit down.
11:49Sit down.
11:49Want some water or something?
11:52I couldn't even give a description.
11:53I didn't even really get a look at it.
11:56Who caught it at the 27?
11:59Uh, a detective's in a tally.
12:01It was nice.
12:02He helped me stop the credit cards and so forth.
12:04Did he say they had a pattern to work off?
12:06The keys were in the purse.
12:11Here, take mine.
12:20Detective DiNatelli said that we don't have to change the locks.
12:23I want to anyway.
12:25Whatever you think.
12:26I'm going to go take a statement, and then I will meet the locksmith at the apartment.
12:33When you're done with your statement, check with the Sarge downstairs.
12:37I'll have a radio car take you to the apartment.
12:39I don't want to put them out.
12:40No, I'll be more comfortable, and, uh, the cops will stay with you until you get the locks changed.
12:46Okay.
12:47Thanks.
12:49I'm sorry it happened.
12:51I'm just glad it didn't hurt you.
12:54Yeah.
12:56I'm just upset.
13:10Emmy said he had the autopsy by the end of the tour.
13:14Yeah.
13:14She'll go check out this shot by his girlfriend.
13:16Somebody grabbed Sylvia's purse and went to Sabbath.
13:20She okay?
13:21She's going home with the locks changed.
13:23That's a good piece of luggage for the money.
13:43How much?
13:45Nine dollars.
13:47Ah, no good.
13:49Well, you think you're going to get a good piece of luggage for nine bucks?
13:51You want a good one?
13:53Right here, $25.
13:55Ah, too much.
13:57Forget this.
13:58Forget it?
13:59Ew, forget you.
14:01Why don't you go get yourself a garbage bag?
14:04Amalia?
14:05You Amalia?
14:06Yeah, so?
14:09Seen Carlos Herrera today?
14:11Uh-uh.
14:12Why are you asking me?
14:13What about him?
14:15Carlos was assaulted.
14:17He apparently was coming over here.
14:19You mean stabbed or something?
14:21What is it?
14:22How bad?
14:23Bad.
14:24He suffered fatal head injuries.
14:26Hold on.
14:30You telling me Chato got killed?
14:33Yeah.
14:34Oh, wow.
14:37This is too heavy.
14:39Huh?
14:47Whoa, whoa, whoa.
14:48What's up with the pills, Amalia?
14:53Volume.
14:54Yeah, we shouldn't be mixing them with bulls.
14:57I need to take them to get through an ordinary day.
15:01Who did it?
15:02We don't know.
15:03Sometimes it's drugs mixed in these things.
15:06Did Carlos steal or use, anything like that?
15:10Nah.
15:11You remember the gang?
15:13Uh-uh.
15:14He did his own thing.
15:16His own thing, huh?
15:17What would that be?
15:18He was a tagger.
15:20He was a tagger, huh?
15:22What about that?
15:23That's got the look, man.
15:25He did beautiful tags.
15:28Yeah, that's sensational.
15:29So, Amalia, you know if Carlos was in a beef with anybody, we have witnesses saw him attacked
15:34by two white guys.
15:35He was in Little Italy.
15:39Guinea sons of bitches.
15:42Man, I hope they all die.
15:43Who are you talking about?
15:44He was warned by some guineas about tagging in their neighborhood.
15:49You know who they are?
15:50You ever seen him?
15:51Nah.
15:53He said guineas.
15:55All right, thanks for your help, Amalia.
15:57Where do you live?
15:58809, 19th Street.
16:012B.
16:02How are you?
16:04What's up to the top, huh?
16:06The customers?
16:08Yeah.
16:10He's such an asshole.
16:11I'm going home.
16:15I don't feel good.
16:16Hey, you can't go home.
16:18Come back here.
16:19Man, go screw yourself.
16:20The community service murder.
16:23I'm not crazy about graffiti either, Andy.
16:26This kid used brain to the baseball bat.
16:29Yeah.
16:30Maybe that's a little strong.
16:32Woman dropped a dime on these guys.
16:48Said she'd seen them earlier in the morning chasing a Puerto Rican kid.
16:52She saw him get stomped?
16:53No.
16:54They chased him off her block.
16:55She couldn't see what happened after that.
16:57She hears about the homicide.
16:58Then about an hour ago, she's looking out her apartment window,
17:01and she sees these guys on the corner outside the U.S. League.
17:04Who's that?
17:05A lot of my Frankie Bichada's place?
17:07Yeah.
17:07This woman give her name?
17:08No.
17:09I sent a radio car over.
17:11She stayed on the line until we picked her mom.
17:13It's Chato's girlfriend said the kid was a tagger
17:15and that he was threatened by some Italians down in Little Italy for tagging.
17:19Well, it looks like they qualify.
17:21Rent them through BCI.
17:22They got no sheets.
17:23Maybe they're ambitious boys.
17:26Uniform gave them their Miranda warnings.
17:28All right.
17:29Take them to one and two, would you guys?
17:31You know, Andy, maybe we should get photos on these guys
17:33just in case they won't stay in the lineup.
17:35Yeah.
17:35I'll get the camera.
17:39Detective?
17:41Beautiful.
17:44Did you drop her off?
17:46Yeah.
17:46Wait till the locksmith left.
17:48How'd she see him?
17:49You know, somewhat upset.
17:52All right.
17:53Thanks a lot for taking her.
17:54All right.
17:55No problem.
17:55Appreciate it.
17:57Still good at home?
17:58All right.
17:58Yeah, locksmith just left.
18:01They say you don't have to change him after a purse snatch.
18:05Kid doing it, huh?
18:09She seemed somewhat upset.
18:13And I figured it'd help her peace of mind.
18:16See what you got there?
18:25Yeah.
18:27Jerry Panetti.
18:29That's right.
18:31You want something to drink, Jerry?
18:32Some coffee or something?
18:34No, I don't want nothing.
18:36How old are you?
18:38Yes.
18:39Nineteen.
18:40So you work over at the Uselet?
18:43Yeah.
18:44Your buddy Paul, he works there too?
18:47Yeah, we're busboys.
18:49Are you working this morning?
18:50No.
18:52Were you out with Paul?
18:55This morning?
18:56Yeah, this morning, Jerry.
18:57And this better be the truth, because we already got a report from a witness.
19:01What about my right to remain silent?
19:03Yeah, you can go that way.
19:04You also have the right to an attorney.
19:05Anything you say can be used against anyone.
19:09So what's the answer?
19:10To what?
19:11What did you and Paul do this morning?
19:14Nothing.
19:14We just hung out.
19:17All right.
19:18Were you riding around in the car?
19:21A little bit.
19:24Whose car?
19:25Paul's car.
19:27Just cruised around.
19:29Driving around Elizabeth Street, up around Grand,
19:32up near Bruno's Market?
19:34No, we didn't go that way.
19:36We went down the other way.
19:38Jerry, you know anybody named Carlos Herrera, Chato?
19:43Nope.
19:45What was that?
19:47He's a kid that was killed this morning across the street from Bruno's Market.
19:51Beat to death with a ball bat.
19:54I never heard of him.
19:55So when you were cruising around this morning,
19:57did you see anybody getting chased, anybody getting hurt,
20:00anybody getting attacked?
20:02No.
20:03So you got nothing at all to tell us about Chato Herrera getting assaulted and killed, huh?
20:08I don't know anything about that.
20:11Let me tell you something.
20:12We got somebody who saw you chasing somebody down the street this morning.
20:17Not me, man.
20:18You had to be somebody else.
20:20All right, Jerry.
20:20You're going to sit here and you're going to think about this for what we talked to your buddy for.
20:24And if what he tells us is different than what you just said, you're going to be jammed up here.
20:29Hey.
20:29What's that for?
20:35My scrapbook.
20:43Deep thinker, huh?
20:45Yeah, listen to these guys, you got to wonder if the jean pool dried up.
21:00Paul Bellini.
21:01Why, do you ask me or you tell me?
21:05What?
21:06Hey.
21:08Come on.
21:09Your name's Paul Bellini, right?
21:11Yeah.
21:12Paul.
21:12Were you riding around in the car with Jerry Panetti this morning?
21:16I declined that.
21:17What do you mean you decline it?
21:19We have a witness that puts you at an incident on the street this morning, Paul.
21:23We're looking to clear that up.
21:26I declined that incident.
21:28He declines that, too.
21:30You work over at the Usuli, don't you, Paul?
21:33It's a free country, right?
21:35That's Frank Pichata's place, isn't it?
21:37You bet.
21:38Your boss have a policy on Taggart's, Paul?
21:40Because everyone knows he's got a temper.
21:43You get pissed off about graffiti?
21:45Listen to this.
21:47You want to talk to me?
21:48I want a lawyer.
21:50If Crazy Frankie sent the busboys to brain this guy, Paul,
21:54you want to get out in front of that now.
21:56It wasn't your idea.
21:58Things went out of control.
22:00I declined that answer.
22:01I want to talk to a lawyer, and I'm declining my entire rights.
22:05It's a moron, Paul.
22:18We sort of brought lawyers.
22:20We should.
22:21In the old days, that cokehead hump would have been whacked before it was 25.
22:25I'm Jack Palermo.
22:26That's my associate, Joel Feynman.
22:28My clients are Jerry Panetti and Paul Bellini.
22:31Have they been charged?
22:32Not yet.
22:33Never.
22:33Why do you guys arrest these kids, huh?
22:37Why do you persecute them?
22:38These are good boys.
22:39Yeah, are they trustworthy types, Frankie?
22:41Did you loan them your Louisville slugger?
22:44Could you produce my clients, please?
22:46What do you know about that taggart, Frankie?
22:48I know that some graffiti asshole guy was coming to him.
22:51That's got nothing to do with me or my employees.
22:54It's not what we heard.
22:55Yeah?
22:55From who?
22:56Where's your witnesses?
22:57Oh, let us help you with that, Frankie.
22:59You know, we'll get you a list so you can threaten everybody alphabetically, all right?
23:03Lieutenant, we're verging on unlawful detention here.
23:06There's your clients.
23:07How you doing, fellas?
23:11Okay, Mr. Piscotto.
23:13Yeah, listen, go along with the lawyers, huh?
23:16Frankie Short takes care of his own fellas.
23:18You work for me, I work for you.
23:20It's the first guy over 5'6'' I've ever seen work for you, Frankie.
23:23Don't you guys have some kind of height requirement in your job applications?
23:27What I heard, detectives, this PR taggart wrote,
23:32Jose's a fag.
23:33He got someone pissed off at him.
23:35Get out of here, Piscotta.
23:38I think there's your hot lead.
23:40Locate some Jose's.
23:42Yeah, tell your story while you're walking.
23:45Don't get a nosebleed, Frankie.
23:47Heights, nosebleeds.
23:49Frankie Piscotta and his guinea pigmies.
23:52We got photos of the best boys, though.
23:55Bring the witnesses in.
23:56Yeah, Frank's probably out in the street now, urging him to cooperate.
24:02Okay.
24:19I, uh, I don't know if you, uh, noticed, Anna, but, uh,
24:23I was speaking with, uh, Harold Ratansky.
24:26What's going on for?
24:28I don't know why.
24:30Detective Martinez was taking that report.
24:32Huh, come on.
24:34That man was part of your life for, what, a whole year?
24:39He may be part of it again, for all I know.
24:43You know what happened to Harold's car, Gregory?
24:46It was vandalized.
24:48You know anything about that?
24:50What, you think maybe I did it?
24:55I don't know what to think.
24:58Like what I do, Donna.
25:00Uh, maybe I, uh, hung around outside Harold Ratansky's bar until the street was deserted,
25:05then I took an ice pick to his tires and a key to his body works.
25:10Is, is, is, is that how you got me figured?
25:12I'm sorry for asking you that.
25:14I apologize.
25:15How could you make that accusation?
25:17I apologize.
25:19I don't know what to think anymore.
25:24Donna, what is going on here?
25:26I have never been so unhappy.
25:31I feel like I'm losing my mind.
25:39Please, can we get together tonight and talk?
25:42No, Greg.
25:43The last thing I want right now is you and me talking more.
25:47I'll only get more upset.
25:49Okay, okay.
25:50I don't want to make you upset.
25:52Yeah, we're going to be putting together a line-up this afternoon.
25:57We're going to be putting together some possible suspects.
26:00I hope you feel better.
26:02I hope you feel better.
26:04If you could just have him give me a call.
26:24Yeah, Detective Simone.
26:26I want to see Detective Simone.
26:28Detective Simone's over there.
26:30Thanks.
26:32Officer Simone?
26:32I'm Jim DeLucci.
26:35You contacted my daughter Marie about the line-up business?
26:39Did.
26:39She's not coming in.
26:41She's not going to be pointing the finger at nobody.
26:44We're investigating a homicide, Mr. DeLucci.
26:47You understand somebody was murdered.
26:48Now, your daughter's very important to this case.
26:50I don't want her involved in this.
26:52I'm not going to allow it.
26:54Well, she said she was willing to cooperate.
26:56I don't give a damn what she's willing about.
26:58She's 15.
26:59I mean, I'm responsible for her, and I'm not letting you put her through this.
27:04She's going to leave town.
27:05She's not going to be available.
27:07She's not coming in for no line-ups, and she's not going to testify.
27:10Mr. DeLucci, I understand all your concerns here.
27:13I'm not stupid.
27:16My family, they walk through that neighborhood every day.
27:21Somebody threaten you, sir?
27:22Nobody's threatened us.
27:23Nobody's threatened you?
27:24Nobody's threatened us.
27:25Because we can offer your daughter protection.
27:27Now, if she makes an ID, we may not even need her at the trial.
27:30Just forget about my daughter, and we'll leave her to death.
27:34She's having nothing to do with this.
27:37Just leave her alone.
27:44No more phone calls.
27:46I need fancy signature on this time.
27:48This guy wants to be the big man, you know, conquer the wall.
27:52No.
27:53No.
28:00They're not in there, huh, Bruno?
28:07Non ci sono.
28:08He knows what I'm saying.
28:11You understand more than you let on, don't you, Bruno?
28:13Huh?
28:15You understand Frank Pichada?
28:18What did cokehead Frankie say to you?
28:20You pick these guys out and watch your grocery burn?
28:23You want me to translate?
28:30No.
28:34Finito, Bruno.
28:35You're done.
28:37Come on.
28:46Did you want to see someone?
28:48Mr. The Detective.
28:51What's his name?
28:52Zipowitz.
28:53Yeah, he left a call for me to come down.
28:55My name's Hoyt.
28:56Mr. Hoyt.
28:58You got the message, huh?
28:59Yeah, I did.
29:00We wanted you to take a look at a couple of pictures.
29:03Hey, Bruno.
29:04Hello, Mr. Hoyt.
29:06He got you down here too, huh?
29:07No, no, no, no, no, no.
29:10How's it going, Walter?
29:12Okay, Bruno's kind of disturbed, huh?
29:15I was just telling Walter that we wanted him to take a look at the pictures.
29:18Yeah, come here, have a seat.
29:20Sit over there.
29:22This is in connection with this morning?
29:26Walter, tell us if you recognize any of these people.
29:28If so, from where?
29:30That's one of them.
29:38Tell me where you recognize him from.
29:40He's one of the guys who beat that kid this morning.
29:43He was the one with the bat.
29:45Look at these.
29:51That's the other guy.
29:52The one jumped out of the car.
29:53All right, look, we're going to arrange some lineups.
29:57We want you to stick around for that, Walter.
30:00How long will it take?
30:01Could be a few hours.
30:02I can't.
30:03I've got a night job.
30:04Could they give you a night off?
30:07I need the money.
30:08Okay, we'll see if we can set up in the morning.
30:15Did Bruno pick the same guys?
30:18We can't discuss that with you.
30:20Walter, we'll give you a call and let you know when to come in.
30:23Okay.
30:25Question, thanks.
30:26Really appreciate your cooperation on this, Walter.
30:28I heard that kid was a tagger.
30:32Yeah, he was.
30:35Some of those guys do interesting work.
30:44Gotta get the feeling this guy doesn't realize that Pichardo will reach out.
30:49Yeah.
30:51After he makes this ID, Walter might want to check into one of them artists' colonies.
30:58You know, it's not necessary, James.
31:15Keep being out here with you.
31:17No problem.
31:18I wasn't busy tonight anyhow.
31:19Yeah.
31:21You'd only have been sleeping.
31:24I mean, I know it's a long shot.
31:26You might grab the guy.
31:28He's done this twice, right?
31:30He vandalized his car repeatedly.
31:34I can't stand her thinking it was me.
31:39Donna's not thinking straight right now is all I can figure.
31:42I mean, that she would think that...
31:44that I could deface this guy's automobile.
31:48That I'd be capable of that.
31:50You wonder what gets in their minds.
31:51You know, the truth is, I feel that it's me that's made her upset.
32:00If her thinking's off kilter, it's at my doorstep.
32:03I've exhibited jealousy and didn't trust her enough.
32:11And I've also shown a lack of fun in life and how much I enjoyed her relationship.
32:18I didn't get that across to her.
32:22A little time.
32:23It'll straighten things out, Greg.
32:24Yeah, I don't know.
32:28It may have deteriorated to too great an extent.
32:37Why don't you go home, James?
32:39Nah, I'll hang around a while, right?
32:41I was a skater when I was a kid.
32:55Oh, yeah?
32:57Yeah.
32:58Out on Long Island.
33:03That's one of the first things her and I did.
33:09Me and Donna were ice skating.
33:11Come on.
33:30Thanks a lot.
33:31Thanks a lot.
33:41Thanks.
33:41That was Phil Dana Talley on the phone.
33:50They recovered your person ID.
33:52Some gin mill men's room.
33:54Your keys were in it.
33:56Good.
33:57You said they'll get it back to you tomorrow.
34:00I wish you'd eat something.
34:03Maybe later.
34:05You're gonna get sick if you don't...
34:06I will eat when I am hungry.
34:11Sylvia, did the scale lay hands on you or something?
34:26No.
34:27I mean, you seem so upset.
34:41My purse was stolen once before in law school.
34:50And I was attacked.
34:54After he stole my purse, he forced me into a stairwell and he assaulted me sexually.
35:11I got raped.
35:18So, yeah.
35:21So, this brought a lot of that back.
35:25Yeah.
35:28They catch a guy?
35:29I didn't report it right away.
35:34I...
35:34I...
35:35I had a lot of trouble with it.
35:42Emotionally.
35:44Took me six weeks to come forward.
35:48I'd like to kill the guy.
35:50I didn't tell you before because I hated it so much.
36:00I hated thinking about it.
36:08Sure.
36:09I was afraid...
36:21That you would think of me differently.
36:24I think you're beautiful.
36:43I think you're beautiful.
36:53And I love you.
37:20Hey.
37:21Hey, what's this?
37:23That's nothing.
37:30Why do you think you might want to call it a night, Greg?
37:33Yeah, I wonder what Tansky say.
37:36Leaves around four.
37:39I don't know if I got two more hours left in me.
37:42I was up pretty late last night.
37:44Yeah, I know.
37:45You had that driving job.
37:46Yeah, I'm looking to put a few dollars away.
37:49Get a down payment for a house.
37:51Go home, James.
37:55I got the portable radio if I need help.
37:58So if the car knows you're here?
37:59Yeah.
38:00Yeah, I'll be all right.
38:01All right.
38:03I really appreciate you hanging out with me.
38:06It's no problem.
38:08I'll see you in the morning, all right?
38:10Yeah.
38:13We'll see you at the house.
38:15Hey, Greg.
38:16Don't exhaust yourself, all right?
38:18Yeah, don't worry.
38:19Yeah.
38:20That don't do anyone any good.
38:22Am I right?
38:24Yeah, it's a good point.
38:26Yeah, it's a good point.
38:56You all right?
38:57Oh, yeah.
38:58How you doing, Lou?
39:00I was just catching 40 winks.
39:02Good morning.
39:16Good morning.
39:18Good morning.
39:21I look like a storm drain, huh?
39:24Yeah, I was up all night.
39:26Yeah?
39:27Why?
39:28I grabbed up the guy on that vandalism complaint.
39:34The guy that keyed Harold's car?
39:36Uh-huh.
39:36I gave the collar to a radio car team.
39:41Ritansky didn't know the guy from Adam.
39:43Yeah.
39:43Turns out that him and the guy were in an altercation a couple years ago.
39:48Guy's an unruly fan.
39:50Uh, Ritansky clocked him one night outside the garden.
39:56Uh, anyway, um, the guy, uh, recognized Ritansky in his ball last week.
40:02Uh, watched what a car he got into.
40:04Yeah, no.
40:05Next night, he starts doing body work.
40:07How's it going?
40:10Yeah, how you doing?
40:12Hi, Donna.
40:13Hi, Harold.
40:14You gonna sign that corroborating affidavit?
40:17Yeah, I'm meeting those two uniformed cops, and I'm gonna go to court.
40:21Greg caught that guy vandalizing my car.
40:23So I understand.
40:27Yeah.
40:27I didn't even remember the guy.
40:29I guess I got in a fight with him a few years ago.
40:31Well, I'm glad he was apprehended.
40:34Hey, my guardian angel, Donna, every time we rev shoulders, something good happens for me.
40:39Anyway, thanks again.
40:40Yeah, no problem.
40:42Just doing my job.
40:44Sure.
40:45Take care, Donna.
40:46Take care, Harold.
40:49Come on, Melvin.
40:53That was very nice of you.
40:56So, uh, I'm out from under the cloud.
41:00No longer a suspect.
41:04No longer a suspect.
41:06Good.
41:08I feel a lot better.
41:10We should talk later, Greg.
41:12Yeah, good.
41:13I'd like that.
41:16How's it going, Greg?
41:17Uh, okay.
41:18How's yourself, James?
41:19All right.
41:20So I said you call it up on that guy.
41:21Yeah, yeah, yeah, I gave it to the guys in the sector.
41:25I miss everything.
41:26Yeah, all you had to do was go home.
41:28Good morning, Donna.
41:29Good morning.
41:33Well, I got to shave.
41:36We'll talk later, huh?
41:38We'll talk later.
41:39Take a good look at each guy, and if you recognize anybody, tell me where you know him from.
42:02Number four.
42:03Where do you recognize him from?
42:06He beat that kid with the baseball bat.
42:11Everyone but number four can go.
42:14Everybody but number four.
42:16I'll bring in the next group now.
42:19All right.
42:20Say, uh, aren't you Walter Hoyt, the artist?
42:24Right through here.
42:25Yeah, where do you know me from?
42:26Maybe I've seen you around the neighborhood or a gallery opening or something.
42:32Yeah, I guess that could be.
42:34Come here, palermo.
42:35You keep your mouth shut in there.
42:48Watch your tone of voice, detective.
42:50You do not talk to that witness.
42:52Yeah, I was just being friendly.
42:53I happen to recognize the guy.
42:54You happen to be trying to send him a message.
42:57Pichata knows who he is.
42:58And if you do it again, you will recognize my fist in your smush.
43:02Now get back in there.
43:05You ready, sir?
43:16Yeah.
43:23Anybody in this group you recognize?
43:26Yeah, I recognize number two.
43:29Say, from where?
43:30He's the one who drove up in the car, jumped out, kicked tell out of the Puerto Rican kid
43:34while the other one was beating him with the bat.
43:37Everyone but number two can go?
43:39Everybody but number two.
43:40James, you put number two in the cage with the other guy?
43:43I want to talk to him.
43:46Come on, let's go.
43:49All right, come on, guys.
43:50Right through here.
43:56Am I through?
43:56Yeah, we're done for today.
44:00What's that?
44:01They'll tell you how the rest of this is going to go.
44:09You okay?
44:11Yeah.
44:13A couple of days, you'll go before the grand jury, tell what happened on the street and
44:17how you made these IDs.
44:18The defendants aren't going to be there, Walter.
44:20Or the shyster, preliminary, or anybody else is just going to be you, the grand jury, and
44:24the D.A.
44:26Yeah, all right.
44:30How about we put you in a hotel till then?
44:32No, I'll go back to my place.
44:34What's the matter with you staying in a hotel for a couple of days?
44:36I work in my place.
44:38I do my painting there.
44:39Yeah.
44:42Walter, these guys work at the UCLA, which is Frank Bichada's place.
44:46He's a hooked-up guy.
44:48Now, we'd be lying to you, Walter, if we didn't tell you that, well, you could be in harm's
44:52way here.
44:54You know, ID and these guys.
44:57What's going to happen?
44:58They're going to gun me down in the street?
45:01Well, to tell you the truth, they, uh, they probably try to reach out with money first.
45:08Try to get you to change your story.
45:11What if I don't?
45:12What you should do, Walter, is stay in a hotel a few days till the grand jury.
45:18Then it's six months before the trial.
45:22Yeah, after the grand jury, you should think about relocating to another part of the city.
45:25I work in my loft.
45:27There's other lofts.
45:29It's just not a great idea you staying in that neighborhood once the indictments come out.
45:33Maybe I can get some in Brooklyn.
45:47Yeah.
45:48Let's talk about it inside.
45:51I'll be right in.
45:51You have a good chat?
46:00Yes, and now we're done.
46:01All right, before you go, I want you to see our laboratory.
46:04I don't need to see your laboratory.
46:06It's a wonderful, wonderful laboratory.
46:10Take a message, attorney Palermo.
46:12Tell Frank Pachata, from me, anything happens to Walter Hoyt, that grease trap that he runs is going to be full of rats.
46:21It's going to be boarded up, and he's going to have health department notices slapped all over it.
46:26Are you through?
46:27He'll have state liquor people up his ass.
46:29He'll have the fire marshals one day and the building department the next.
46:33He's going to be paying so many fines, all you'll get is IOUs.
46:38Are you through now?
46:39Yeah, I'm through now.
46:40You tell that coked-out son of a bitch what I said.
46:55So Walter's decided to stay at a hotel.
46:58I think that's smart.
47:01I'm going to make a quick call to the DA, Walter, to get you set up.
47:10So, uh, are you a pretty good painter, Walter?
47:18Yeah, I need a voucher.
47:19I think I am.
47:22What kind of stuff you do?
47:23I'm redefining negative space by imploding line.
47:34Uh-huh.
47:36You're okay, Walter.
47:39They just need to make some notifications.
47:42Hey, uh, Bobby.
47:44You mind if I don't take him to the hotel with you?
47:51I want to meet Sylvia for lunch.
47:53Yeah, no problem.
47:54You break bad with that lawyer?
47:56All the good it's going to do.
48:03All right, won't you take a ride?
48:04I'll see you later, Walter.
48:20Lieutenant?
48:21Yeah.
48:22What is it, Lieutenant?
48:23Uh-uh.
48:23Lieutenant, I've got some vacation time on the books, and if it's all right, I'd like
48:33to take some of it.
48:35Well, it's your time, Donna.
48:36That's what it's there for.
48:38When would you want to go?
48:40I'd like to go immediately.
48:42I've got all the monthly reports caught up, and I checked with the chief of detectives.
48:47They've got replacements in the tent pool.
48:50I don't want to intrude, Donna, but is everything all right?
48:54Anything here at the office causing you a problem?
48:57No.
48:57I just need to get away.
49:01All right.
49:02Take care of yourself.
49:06Thank you, Lieutenant.
49:07Yeah.
49:17Detective, do you have a moment?
49:22Of course.
49:23I thought we could talk after work.
49:38I'm, uh, going to take some vacation time, Craig.
49:45When?
49:46I'm leaving right away.
49:50Uh-huh.
49:51I'm, uh, I'm not sure for how long.
49:54I haven't even decided how I'm going to spend the time.
49:57Sure.
50:03Well, uh, there's no reason you'd have to know.
50:08I just know I've got to get away.
50:12Um, I haven't fared well in all of this.
50:17I think that's a good idea, Donna.
50:19Uh, you know, just, uh, go away for an undetermined length of time.
50:29I'm glad you understand.
50:30And if, uh, and if you don't have a destination, you'll find one when you get there.
50:43Donna, whatever you do, you know, wherever you go, I want you to know, I just want you to be happy.
50:55If, uh, if that could be with me, I, I, I think, you know, that's my preference.
51:06But I love you.
51:10And whatever makes you happy,
51:12that's what I hope happens for you.
51:16I'll see you soon.
51:31Whatever.
51:46Hey, I saw you and her talking.
51:59She's leaving.
52:00She's leaving?
52:01Yeah, she's going to take a vacation time.
52:04Uh, she wants to get away.
52:07Jeez, I thought what you were grabbing that guy up, you know.
52:10Yeah, well, she, uh, she's looking at the, uh, finding her bearings.
52:16You know, she, she may find she wants to resume with me, or she may not.
52:22Uh-huh.
52:26Don't let me go out there, James.
52:29I want to, I want to ask her not to leave.
52:33But I know it's not the right thing to do.
52:35Yeah, not if she wants some space.
52:37I want to go and ask her to stay.
52:39I think you're right for not doing that.
52:43Would you do me a favor, James?
52:44Would, would you just look out there and see if she's gone?
52:48Sure.
52:57Yeah, she's gone.
53:02I guess she left for lunch.
53:04No, no, she, she's not coming back.
53:06She's, uh, she's left for a vacation.
53:14Yeah.
53:15Which is good.
53:29How's it going?
53:30Okay.
53:31I'm hungry.
53:32That's good, because you didn't eat breakfast either.
53:35How'd your lineup go?
53:37I wouldn't have stood up and picked the guys.
53:39Good.
53:40Uh, could you hold up for just a second?
53:42We have an overflow from central booking here.
53:45Yeah.
53:45Did you go to that rape treatment center?
53:57They were really helpful.
54:00One of my counselors is still there from six years ago.
54:03So you didn't have to start from scratch.
54:05Oh, I'm not going to be able to skate through.
54:10A lot of feelings will be coming back for a while.
54:13Sure.
54:16She said there's a men's group, too, if you're interested.
54:21Think I gotta do that?
54:24I think it might be good.
54:25It's not a perpetual thing, though, right?
54:32No, not perpetual.
54:35Only as long as it's useful.
54:48Thanks for being here for me, Andy.
54:52Where else am I going to be?
54:55This is the scene.
