In Justice s01e07 Episode Script
Cost of Freedom
Every trial results in a verdict, but not every verdict results in the truth Wanna see your grandkids? Did I say put 'em up? Everybody on the floor now! This is a robbery! On the floor, face down! Keys.
Everybody on the floor.
Everybody on the floor!! Nobody move! Anybody hits the alarm, I'll blow her head off! You're doing fine.
Just stay on the ground, we'll be out of here soon.
Paul? Oh, don't do this.
You don't need to do this.
David, shush.
Come on now, Paul.
Just--just put it down.
Shoot him! Shoot him! - I know it's hard - Shoot him! Are you saying you don't want me to run for attorney general? It's not about what we want, David.
It's about what's best for California.
Oh, I see.
And California sent you to tell me this? We agree you have some excellent endorsements, but we think it's Hackett's year.
- Hackett? All right, now I'm offended.
Look David, no candidate has ever won the attorney general spot without the congressman's endorsements and Garner's connections.
We really think you have a future.
We just think you need seasoning.
Are you gonna say anything? Such as? Such as, "I'm so sorry to do this to you on the eve of your announcement," something along those lines.
You heard them.
You're not ready.
When was I ever ready, father? I mean, in your estimation, when was I ever anything more than a disappointment to you? Why don't we let you two just talk? Sit down, please.
This is not personal, David.
I will not allow you to make it personal.
I lobby hard to get you on the law review.
What do you do? Start an underground newspaper.
I refer clients to your corporate firm.
Where do you go? Out here to play Mother Teresa.
You are dedicated to shaking things up, son.
That is not what I want in an attorney general.
Oh, I'm so glad this isn't personal.
Nothing I do is good enough for that man! David I mean, I could be elected president of the united states, and he'd still say, "oh, you know, you didn't win by enough votes.
" This is Tyler Buckner.
His father's seven years into a life sentence at san quentin for robbery-homicide.
I'm just done telling him, as per your instruction, that we don't take walk-ins anymore.
Yeah, right.
Charlie, can I talk to you for a minute? Just one second.
That investigator that you mentioned from the state bar? I want you to talk to him.
- Oh, David, come on.
You don't want to go after your father's law firm.
Yes, I do.
Look, I have to drive Tyler home, okay? I'll get on it tomorrow.
- No! No, we gotta move fast or that bastard will know we're coming.
Who's Tyler? Oh, well, have one of the kids take him.
Take him where? - Ukiah.
- Ukiah? - Yeah, he took the bus here.
- His mom had no idea.
- Well, phone her to pick him up.
I did.
She's stuck at work.
Jon's car is broken, Brianna's got a moped, and everybody else it out.
Charlie, I fail to see why this is our problem.
I'll tell you what.
You drive Tyler home, and I'll check in with my friend at the state bar.
Okay? - Whatwhat? - Drive safe.
Don't touch that.
It's my fault.
What's your fault? My dad.
You were how old when this happened? Yeah.
Look, kid, whatever gets you through the night, you believe what you want, but nothing is ever a 6-year-old's fault.
I found these papers in the attic, pages from the trial, what people said about my dad.
- Yeah, the transcripts.
Right.
My mom hid all that stuff from me when I was a kid.
.
the cops, the lawyers and I found out, the cops thought my dad was lying because he said he hadn't shot his gun in a while.
And they did this test, and it was like he shot it a week before.
But he didn't shoot it.
I did.
I wanted a B.
B.
Gun for Christmas.
Dad said no.
So I snuck out his gun and shot at some squirrels.
I put it back and didn't tell anyone.
It's my fault.
My dad's in prison because of me.
Tyler, honey, I'm sorry.
I was so worried about you.
Come on in.
Now I know you Good afternoon.
David Swain's office.
- Victoria? - Yes, sir? Yeah, I need a quick rundown on a case.
He came to you? Tyler came to you? I thought you'd be more surprised about the shotgun.
- How'd he even get to you? - He took a bus.
Well, my son needs to be thinking about school, about life.
Not about - You? - Well, not about me here.
I got trapped in Ukiah when my dad died, and I got stuck running the farm.
I don't want Tyler to do the same thing.
I want him to make something of himself.
- You want me to drop this? - Didn't know you picked it up.
Why don't you tell me about the murdered loan officer, the one who recognized you at the bank.
David Wolfe.
He was a friend.
We argued the day before.
He called our loan.
He See, that's why he thought he recognized me.
We argued.
- What about your license plate? Why did the eyewitness say he saw it? I don't know.
Look, you know, my lawyers went through all this.
Yeah, I'm sorry.
Am I keeping you? I just haven't had much luck with lawyers.
Neither have I.
All right.
So your alibi is, you're on your farm, working on your tractor, but nobody saw you.
Right.
All right, so when you were out there-- by the way, what was wrong with the tractor? A cracked intake manifold.
Why? - Where was your pickup during this? - At the house.
The most I know about farms, I learned from watching old Sissy Spacek movies.
So I imagine it's a big place? 180 acres.
So you couldn't see your truck from where you were? No.
Hey, why do you want to know about the manifold? Oh, I didn't.
Liars get caught up on details, mr.
Buckner.
By the way, I think I just picked this up.
Because I knew what was wrong with my tractor? No, because your son is credible.
Paul Buckner first degree murder, two counts.
Life without parole.
Now his son contradicts the shotgun evidence, but no appellate judge I know is gonna believe him.
So what else have you got? We've got the two eyewitnesses Wolfe and Young.
Okay, good.
Now can anybody tell me what's unusual about these two eyewitnesses? - Neither was an eyewitness.
- Gold star.
Yeah.
David Wolfe was guessing at the masked robber's identity based on an argument the day earlier.
Right.
- And the passerby, Mickey Young.
- Mickey "the one" Young.
It's a cool name, by the way.
He saw only the license plate.
All right, put it up.
Two eyewitnesses who aren't eyewitnesses.
Sounds like the basis of an appeal to me.
Now there's a gap of 30 minutes when Paul Buckner was working in his field that he couldn't see his truck.
The one theory is, someone took the truck to commit the crime.
Jon, I want you and Brianna to talk to this eyewitness, this Mickey Young who saw the pickup outside the bank.
Let's see how certain he is about I.
D.
ing that truck.
Sonya, if Buckner didn't do this, then there's an unresolved bank robbery out there.
So I want you and, uhyou.
- Damian Pascal.
Yeah, I know who you are.
You assist Sonya, all right.
You find out if there were any other bank robberies occurring in the area at the same time.
Okay? Go, people.
Make me proud.
- So you don't need me anymore? - Nah, we don't.
But we can always use someone to answer phones.
Is that what I think it is? - Results on your dad's law firm? - Yeah.
See you at the bank.
Yes, I was here in 1999.
- During the robbery? - Yes, sir.
- Marcia Barkin, accounts president.
- David Swain.
That's a great color on you.
We're here looking into the case of Paul Buckner.
He was the man who - murdered my fiance.
Yes.
So right after that, two gunmen entered and disarmed you.
- Coldcocked me, right here.
- And where was the other guard? Up the street, walking mrs.
Tonkins to her shop.
- And he'd done that before, right? - Yeah, every thursday.
Was anyone out sick that day? No.
Why? Well, the robbers waited till the other guard left.
Sounds like some familiarity with the bank, you know? Did anybody quit right afterwards? No, but we all wanted to.
I know this is difficult, ms.
Barkin, but the day before the robbery, Paul was in here looking to extend his loan, is that correct? Yes, his farm was failing.
He was yelling, angry You're sorry? You tell me my loan's in default, and you're sorry? Well, I can't pay you back if my farm's out of business.
- Paul, take it easy, please.
- Easy?! How, David? My family's about to lose their home.
What do you want me to do? According to your testimony, your fiance was worried he might return.
Is that right? Well, isn't it possible, ms.
Barkin, that your fiance was so concerned about Paul returning that he just naturally assumed the masked robber was Paul? - Why are you doing this? - I'm sorry? My fiance was murdered right in front of me, mr.
Swain.
The man I loved, the man I woke up every morning thinking about was murdered.
Paul Buckner is lucky to be alive, to get up in the morning, to enjoy and here you are.
Miss Barkin, um Look, um, I've seen all kinds of victims, and I've seen all kinds of survivors, and no one is ever helped by a lie.
But if Paul Buckner is truly guilty, then we'll be the first to make sure that he stays where he is.
You and Conti, huh? Are those words supposed to mean something? - I was talking to Sonya - This should be interesting.
She thinks that you-- as in you, Brianna-- have a thing for him, as in him, Conti.
So it's just Okay, first of all, Sonya is the one who has "the thing" for Conti, all right? Why else do you think she would ask those questions at all? And second, I don't understand what Office love affair? - Yes.
- Uh, no.
Thank you for agreeing to meet with us, mr.
Young.
We just had a couple of questions.
You want me to look at some pictures? Yeah, yeah.
Now that's the pickup you saw skiddin' at you, right? Yeah.
Well, hold on No, there's no supercab.
Oh, I see.
That was a little test, huh? - How'd I do? - Fine.
Now how about this one, sir? Yeah, that's it.
Great.
- Can I ask you, mr.
Young-- - It's Mickey.
Right, Mickey.
Uh, "the one.
" That's a cool nickname.
Thanks.
A little high school football.
- I played a little ball myself.
.
tailback.
- Okay, Jon.
Right.
Um We took a look at that police report.
Why'd it take you two days after the robbery to call? It didn't.
I called the cops right away.
It took them two days to phone me back.
- Really? - Yeah.
Small-town departments Well, you see, it's just the problem, mr.
Young, with witness identification, is that later recollections are not as reliable as first impressions.
Oh, I'm sure you're right, but, uh, I wrote that license plate on my hand, and that wasn't two days later.
That was like two seconds later.
Well, it's just there's nothing that says that our guy has to be innocent.
- So I take it it didn't go well? - Nah, no, no.
Hey, what you got set up here, a little puppet show? I have a connection in Sacramento-- an institute that catalogs violent crimes, and we found this This is the 1999 Ukiah robbery our guy is accused of.
Good.
This is another robbery committed three months earlier.
Watch, there's a hit to the stomach, then the back, and just like the Ukiah robbery, he tosses the guard's keys.
- How far away? Clearlake, about a hundred miles.
And this is a third robbery around that same period in Colusa.
80 miles away.
Stomach, back and look, there are the keys.
Three separate robberies, right? All with the same moves, same steps, same signature.
Here's another thing.
Look, check out this gunman.
And now check out the other robberies.
Left-handed.
Good work.
Thanks.
You know what else is interesting? This robbery was committed three months after Buckner was arrested, meaning if the same men committed these crimes, Buckner isn't guilty.
You're slowing down.
It's called age.
Must be time for a new wife.
Got a deal for you.
The answer is no.
Good.
Keep your eye on "the Chronicle" tomorrow.
What? 2002, the Mandel family trust.
Your firm had some "accounting irregularities.
" - Unexpected.
- I learned from the best.
You don't need to endorse me.
Just don't endorse Hackett.
- Give me till tomorrow.
- Fine.
Look, am I thrilled that you're reopening the Buckner case? No.
But did we do anything wrong? No.
Well, but the eyewitness, mr.
Young Yeah, I know what the eyewitness said.
But I can assure you firsthand that we contacted him.
He did not contact us.
We found his keys on the ground.
I don't understand.
How come .
.
He was scared out of his wits.
It hapends all the time.
Eyewitnesses run off.
We have to track 'em down.
You know, the issue of who contacted who never came up at trial.
Yeah, it looks like "mr.
One" has some bravery issues.
"The one.
" You saw your dad? How'd it go? What do you think? Okay So Jon and Brianna are checking the Ukiah police, seeing why it took 'em two days to contact this eyewitness with the license plate.
Good, great.
Mayberry issues play well in court.
Right, and Sonya and Damian are checking the evidence on these other pattern robberies.
Oh, and Tyler phoned.
- Who? The kid, David.
- What'd he want? - You.
He wanted to thank you.
Guess you guys really bonded, huh? Mr.
Conti, mr.
Swain.
Elliott Thompson, northern California bureau chief, A.
T.
F.
Can we talk a minute? These are the true patriots, a right-wing militia group based in Humboldt county.
They advocate the armed separation of white and black races and the destruction of institutions advancing the zionist conspiracy.
In order to finance their operations, they robbed several banks in the pacific northwest.
We believe these three robberies are their handiwork.
We arrested the core members in 2000, but some of the robbers may still be at large.
We were getting very close to locating the remaining true patriots until you started asking questions about a 1999 Ukiah robbery.
I'm sure it was not your intent.
However, you have sent our quarry back underground.
Thanks for the benefit of the doubt, Ted.
- Elliott.
- What? - My name is Elliott.
- Oh.
- How'd I get Ted? - I have no idea.
Well, if what you're saying is true, then Buckner didn't do this robbery the true patriots did.
This is a photo of Paul Buckner posing with top lieutenants of the true patriots.
I'm afraid to say it, gentlemen, but your client is a true patriot.
And if we back off? You'll have the undying gratitude of the united states government.
Is there a box for that on my tax returns? We'll give you regular updates on the investigation.
Anything we find, we'll share immediately.
- Are we gonna back off? - Are you kidding? Come on, everybody in town knew one or two of those idiots.
Yeah, but did everybody have their picture taken with them, Paul? What? He had a picture of you with four members of the true patriots.
Wait--wait a minute.
Was there a church in the background? Some of these guys were members of my church.
When I found out they were militia, I had nothing to do with them.
- Do you believe him? - I don't know.
I can only focus on one crime at a time, Charlie bank robberies, and then crimes against humanity.
You know, the A.
T.
F.
may have just done us a great service here.
Pointed us in the right direction? - You already thought of that? - Way ahead of you.
Yes, Sonya Okay, this is what we could pull together.
The A.
T.
F.
busted the true patriot compound in 2000.
They found plans for bombing two synagogues in Oakland and an assassination of a black judge in San Francisco.
There was a brief shootout 2 patriots dead, 12 arrested.
The A.
T.
F.
figured another dozen got away.
These are internal patriot photos, confiscated with their possessions.
- Were any vehicles confiscated? Yeah.
Why? Well, just the partial I.
D.
of the plate, the "3-o-I.
" I mean, maybe it lines up with one of the militia vehicles.
So maybe someone didn't take Buckner's pickup, but a militia vehicle was mistaken for it.
Look left-handed.
Maybe he's the left-handed shooter in all the bank robberies.
- Could be.
- That's Rodney Fleming.
He was killed in the 2000 shootout with the A.
T.
F.
Good.
Okay, two leads.
Let's track down everything we can on Fleming.
Sonya and Damian, check all the plates on the militia vehicles in the - Mr.
Conti? - Tyler, hi.
Is mr.
Swain here? Oh, why, there he is.
Hey.
Hi.
I just wanted to thank you.
I'm just doing job, kid.
But mr.
Conti said you made it top priority.
Oh, he did? Yeah, well, that's because mr.
Conti's a big troublemaker.
And just because the evidence of the case looks very promising.
.
Oh, jeez.
It's just something I made.
Open it.
From wood shop.
.
I thought you'd need 'em.
Yeah.
Yeah, I got lots of books, right? So, why wouldn't I need 'em? Okay.
My mom got remarried.
Yeah? I mean, I know they did it for me.
.
got divorced, because of life in prison and all.
But now he's getting out, right? I mean, if they're still in love, shouldn't they get back together? - Victoria? - I'm working out here.
I need you to work in here, please.
That works.
Okay, so here's Buckner's plate, right? Now "3-o-I"-- this is what Mickey Young remembered of Buckner's plate.
Oh, he's with victoria.
He's fine.
So we compared it to the three pickups that were confiscated at the true patriot compound.
Now it's not an exact match, right? But here's what we're thinking.
You got a truck racing at you.
You look up.
You see these plates.
Do you confuse this "o" with this "q"? And an "a" for an "I.
" It's a good thought, Sonya.
Well, can you do better? - That's a front plate.
- I'm sorry? No registration tags.
That's a front plate.
Let me see some pictures of the pickup.
If the eyewitness said he saw the truck backing up toward him, he couldn't see the front plate, right? - Right, just the rear one.
Look at this.
If he couldn't see the plate, he couldn't place Paul Buckner at the scene.
If he couldn't see the plate, how'd he get the numbers? Jeez, you guys are sticklers for details.
Sorry, "the one," uh, it's our boss.
Yeah, I know that tune.
We talked to the Ukiah police captain.
Now he said you never contacted him.
Yeah, he said that you were too scared.
And it was only after they found some keys that you dropped while running away terrified that you agreed to cooperate.
Of course he'd say that.
He's covering his ass.
Covering his ass.
.
see, that's what I told her.
See? Yeah, yeah, you were right.
I told you guys.
You're made for each other.
So, uh, is that it? Yeah, pretty much.
Uh, just one more thing.
Um, the pickup.
.
when it backed up toward you, you immediately wrote down that license plate, right? - Right, on my hand.
Over there.
- Over there.
But you never saw the front of the pickup, just--just the back, right? - Right, the pickup took off.
- Okay, good, good, good, 'cause I have a photo of the Buckner pickup.
Could you just read us that license plate, please? Out loud.
Yeah, and take your time.
We'll wait.
Buckner's truck was in a fender bender a month before the robbery.
We have the police report.
And that's how the pickup looked on the day of the robbery.
So there's no way you could've seen that plate.
- Yeah, why are you lying? - How did you get Buckner's plate? - How did you get Buckner's plate? - Who gave it to you? So what did Buckner ever do to you? Get out of his way.
- Nice bit of questioning.
- Thanks.
You too.
Okay, new direction--Mickey Young.
Why is he lying about our client? What do we have? He works at a printing shop up in Ukiah--Kangaroo printing.
And, credit reports show that he had some financial trouble in 1995 unpaid credit cards, civil law suits and judgements against him totaling, like, $30,000.
Yeah, but he was able to satisfy the judgments.
Well, his income was sporadic.
I wonder where he got his money.
Well, we can go down to the courthouse, pull the docket sheets, talk to the plaintiff's lawyers, find the source of the money.
Let's also check property records.
Sonya, Damian, see if Mickey was going after Buckner's land.
We'll meet with Buckner, see if he remembers any connection.
You think Paul's getting out? Well, habeas appeals are always difficult to predict, mrs.
Buckner.
Longworth.
Longworth.
But now, with Mickey Young's credibility in question Do you mean the man who saw the license plate? Yes.
Do you really think this Mickey Young lied? Yeah.
I'm sorry.
It's just I held out hope for so long.
And then everything was settled.
I was moving on.
And Brent he's been so good.
He's a good father and a good husband.
What do I do? Hey, it's good to see you.
It's not easy, is it? It's almost easier not to care.
All right, buddy.
So, uh, we'll see ya, all right? Okay, buddy? You go home with mom now.
I'll see ya in a month, buddy.
I love you.
There must be some confusion at your office.
Uh, there is no confusion.
I said I was gonna be here in an hour to take a look at those Mickey Young files.
Well, a man was here from the national justice project about 15 minutes ago.
A man came here and took the Young files? Well, yes.
He said he was gonna copy everything at the corner store and then bring it all back.
We went to the copy store, but no one showed up with the Young files.
- What? Yeah, same with the property records.
They're gone.
They said someone signed them out before us.
No, no, no.
Wait a minute.
We're being bugged.
The only way anybody could know we were going after Young's records is if they heard us in there.
Somebody like our good friends at the A.
T.
F.
Why? Why? Because we're being naughty.
Because they told us to back off, and we haven't.
We need to get that room swept.
Okay.
And stay off cell phones.
No work inside.
Okay.
Hey, listen, I didn't get a chance to tell you guys this before.
The property records are gone, but you can still check the deed sales online.
Yeah.
Rodney Fleming, the dead left-handed militiaman, co-owns a family home -with his half-brother-- Mickey Young.
- What? One of the shooters in the robbery is related to the key eyewitness.
What is going on here? You know I'm not interested in Conti.
Jon told me that you were asking what was going on between me and him.
Look, okay, it's not that big a deal, all right? Just tell him.
- Who, Jon? No.
Conti.
Tell him what? I don't know.
I mean, maybe ask him out for a drink? Or say you wanna go.
.
- No What? Why not? Because.
Look, we're not in high school, all right? He's not your teacher.
And with what we're getting paid, he's barely your boss.
So I'm just saying-- Listen up.
Close the door.
We've got a new theory of the case.
Mickey Young wanted to cover for his brother's involvement in the robbery, so he set up our client.
Mr.
Swain? Your father is here.
Oh, tell him I'll meet-- No, in my office.
Sonya? I want you to go to-- You okay? - Yeah.
I want you to go to the Ukiah bank and talk to Marcia Barkin.
Do you remember who that is? - The victim's fiancee.
- Right.
Tell her that we need Mickey Young's account records, okay? Oh, and tell her it's to uncover a lie.
Fine.
You're sidelining yourself from the campaign? You're dropping the state bar matter? This isghastly.
Did you ever love me? What do you mean? I mean, was there ever a time in my life when you were happier that I was alive than dead? - Is this a trick? - Yeah, dad, it's a trick.
The room is bugged, and I'm gonna use the fact that you might have feelings to blackmail you.
David, you know how all this talk makes me uncomfortable.
And I don't care.
Because I have an inkling that most fathers don't act this way towards their sons.
I'm not most fathers, David.
You are not most sons.
Good-bye, father.
Think you fellas dropped these.
Well, do I get my deposit back? Do you have a complaint, mr.
Swain? No, Ruby Ridge and Waco were years ago.
You're accusing us of bugging? Now why would i do that? I'm merely representing a client who was wrongly convicted of a robbery in 1999 in which the main witness was only was only contacted by the police after dropping his key chain at the scene.
What? Charlie the police only contacted Mickey Young after they found his keys, right? Yeah.
So what's he doing at a crime scene where his half-brother is robbing the bank? I mean, that is either the strangest coincidence in the world.
.
Or not a coincidence at all.
Exactly, which means that either Mickey is-- David, we should now.
Oh, yes, we should.
Thank you.
Which means either Mickey is a lookout Or the shooter himself.
Okay, now listen to this.
.
I had Sonya check Mickey Young's financial records, and he was in trouble until he received $40,000 from a blind numbered account.
Barkin found the source.
Guess where.
Right here.
You're kidding.
Payments made in '99 and 2000.
Each in the same month as the A.
T.
F.
raids on the true patriots.
Informant money.
So you think they would've let Buckner go to prison just to protect an informant? - Oh, yes.
Joseph Salvati.
The guy spent 30 years in prison for a gangland murder he didn't commit.
The hit was actually carried out by an informant for the F.
B.
I.
They not only sent an innocent man to prison, they had the gall to put the killer on the stand to testify against Salvati.
I mean, all to protect their informant.
- So the answer is yes? - Oh, yeah.
All right.
You want me to stay here? - Just give me a second.
- All right.
real tight on that fourth turn there.
He's got to stay down and shoot the gap if he's gonna make a run - Mickey Young? - Who are you? I'm Charles Conti.
Let's talk.
Elliott, you don't understand.
He was crazy.
This guy was crazy.
Said he wasn't a cop.
He didn't have to play by the rules.
He breaks my chair! - Well, just hold on! Now hold on.
Who was he? This guy who works with Swain.
And they know you were trying to stop their investigation.
He said he had everything.
He was just gonna lay it out-- What do you mean "everything?" What did you tell him? I didn't tell him anything.
It's what he told me.
Meaning that you and Fleming were half-brothers? That's nothing.
No, the money in my account.
.
How much you were paying me to be an informant.
- License plate? - Oh, yeah.
Me calling you after the robbery, you giving me Buckner's plate everything! Well, they can make all the wild accusations they want.
Look, I don't care! You need to get me a deal, or I'm talking to your boss.
Okay.
You'll be fine.
I'll phone you tonight.
Just don't talk to anybody.
For the cause.
Mr.
Young, you're under arrest for the murder of David Wolfe.
We've agreed not to seek the death penalty in trade for your cooperation in investigating David Swain's claim that Elliott Thompson used A.
T.
F.
resources to frame Paul Buckner.
Is that correct? - Yeah.
- Good.
Take him away.
- Yes, sir.
Enjoying yourself? Let me think about that.
Yeah.
I made the country safer.
What did you do? I got an innocent man out of prison.
The true patriots were targeting two synagogues in Oakland, a kindergarten in Watts and a courthouse in San Francisco.
A.
T.
F.
estimates put that at 340 dead.
.
50 of them children.
You think I'll shed one tear over an innocent man weighed against the lives of 340? - Want a piece of gum? - Thanks.

Everybody on the floor.
Everybody on the floor!! Nobody move! Anybody hits the alarm, I'll blow her head off! You're doing fine.
Just stay on the ground, we'll be out of here soon.
Paul? Oh, don't do this.
You don't need to do this.
David, shush.
Come on now, Paul.
Just--just put it down.
Shoot him! Shoot him! - I know it's hard - Shoot him! Are you saying you don't want me to run for attorney general? It's not about what we want, David.
It's about what's best for California.
Oh, I see.
And California sent you to tell me this? We agree you have some excellent endorsements, but we think it's Hackett's year.
- Hackett? All right, now I'm offended.
Look David, no candidate has ever won the attorney general spot without the congressman's endorsements and Garner's connections.
We really think you have a future.
We just think you need seasoning.
Are you gonna say anything? Such as? Such as, "I'm so sorry to do this to you on the eve of your announcement," something along those lines.
You heard them.
You're not ready.
When was I ever ready, father? I mean, in your estimation, when was I ever anything more than a disappointment to you? Why don't we let you two just talk? Sit down, please.
This is not personal, David.
I will not allow you to make it personal.
I lobby hard to get you on the law review.
What do you do? Start an underground newspaper.
I refer clients to your corporate firm.
Where do you go? Out here to play Mother Teresa.
You are dedicated to shaking things up, son.
That is not what I want in an attorney general.
Oh, I'm so glad this isn't personal.
Nothing I do is good enough for that man! David I mean, I could be elected president of the united states, and he'd still say, "oh, you know, you didn't win by enough votes.
" This is Tyler Buckner.
His father's seven years into a life sentence at san quentin for robbery-homicide.
I'm just done telling him, as per your instruction, that we don't take walk-ins anymore.
Yeah, right.
Charlie, can I talk to you for a minute? Just one second.
That investigator that you mentioned from the state bar? I want you to talk to him.
- Oh, David, come on.
You don't want to go after your father's law firm.
Yes, I do.
Look, I have to drive Tyler home, okay? I'll get on it tomorrow.
- No! No, we gotta move fast or that bastard will know we're coming.
Who's Tyler? Oh, well, have one of the kids take him.
Take him where? - Ukiah.
- Ukiah? - Yeah, he took the bus here.
- His mom had no idea.
- Well, phone her to pick him up.
I did.
She's stuck at work.
Jon's car is broken, Brianna's got a moped, and everybody else it out.
Charlie, I fail to see why this is our problem.
I'll tell you what.
You drive Tyler home, and I'll check in with my friend at the state bar.
Okay? - Whatwhat? - Drive safe.
Don't touch that.
It's my fault.
What's your fault? My dad.
You were how old when this happened? Yeah.
Look, kid, whatever gets you through the night, you believe what you want, but nothing is ever a 6-year-old's fault.
I found these papers in the attic, pages from the trial, what people said about my dad.
- Yeah, the transcripts.
Right.
My mom hid all that stuff from me when I was a kid.
.
the cops, the lawyers and I found out, the cops thought my dad was lying because he said he hadn't shot his gun in a while.
And they did this test, and it was like he shot it a week before.
But he didn't shoot it.
I did.
I wanted a B.
B.
Gun for Christmas.
Dad said no.
So I snuck out his gun and shot at some squirrels.
I put it back and didn't tell anyone.
It's my fault.
My dad's in prison because of me.
Tyler, honey, I'm sorry.
I was so worried about you.
Come on in.
Now I know you Good afternoon.
David Swain's office.
- Victoria? - Yes, sir? Yeah, I need a quick rundown on a case.
He came to you? Tyler came to you? I thought you'd be more surprised about the shotgun.
- How'd he even get to you? - He took a bus.
Well, my son needs to be thinking about school, about life.
Not about - You? - Well, not about me here.
I got trapped in Ukiah when my dad died, and I got stuck running the farm.
I don't want Tyler to do the same thing.
I want him to make something of himself.
- You want me to drop this? - Didn't know you picked it up.
Why don't you tell me about the murdered loan officer, the one who recognized you at the bank.
David Wolfe.
He was a friend.
We argued the day before.
He called our loan.
He See, that's why he thought he recognized me.
We argued.
- What about your license plate? Why did the eyewitness say he saw it? I don't know.
Look, you know, my lawyers went through all this.
Yeah, I'm sorry.
Am I keeping you? I just haven't had much luck with lawyers.
Neither have I.
All right.
So your alibi is, you're on your farm, working on your tractor, but nobody saw you.
Right.
All right, so when you were out there-- by the way, what was wrong with the tractor? A cracked intake manifold.
Why? - Where was your pickup during this? - At the house.
The most I know about farms, I learned from watching old Sissy Spacek movies.
So I imagine it's a big place? 180 acres.
So you couldn't see your truck from where you were? No.
Hey, why do you want to know about the manifold? Oh, I didn't.
Liars get caught up on details, mr.
Buckner.
By the way, I think I just picked this up.
Because I knew what was wrong with my tractor? No, because your son is credible.
Paul Buckner first degree murder, two counts.
Life without parole.
Now his son contradicts the shotgun evidence, but no appellate judge I know is gonna believe him.
So what else have you got? We've got the two eyewitnesses Wolfe and Young.
Okay, good.
Now can anybody tell me what's unusual about these two eyewitnesses? - Neither was an eyewitness.
- Gold star.
Yeah.
David Wolfe was guessing at the masked robber's identity based on an argument the day earlier.
Right.
- And the passerby, Mickey Young.
- Mickey "the one" Young.
It's a cool name, by the way.
He saw only the license plate.
All right, put it up.
Two eyewitnesses who aren't eyewitnesses.
Sounds like the basis of an appeal to me.
Now there's a gap of 30 minutes when Paul Buckner was working in his field that he couldn't see his truck.
The one theory is, someone took the truck to commit the crime.
Jon, I want you and Brianna to talk to this eyewitness, this Mickey Young who saw the pickup outside the bank.
Let's see how certain he is about I.
D.
ing that truck.
Sonya, if Buckner didn't do this, then there's an unresolved bank robbery out there.
So I want you and, uhyou.
- Damian Pascal.
Yeah, I know who you are.
You assist Sonya, all right.
You find out if there were any other bank robberies occurring in the area at the same time.
Okay? Go, people.
Make me proud.
- So you don't need me anymore? - Nah, we don't.
But we can always use someone to answer phones.
Is that what I think it is? - Results on your dad's law firm? - Yeah.
See you at the bank.
Yes, I was here in 1999.
- During the robbery? - Yes, sir.
- Marcia Barkin, accounts president.
- David Swain.
That's a great color on you.
We're here looking into the case of Paul Buckner.
He was the man who - murdered my fiance.
Yes.
So right after that, two gunmen entered and disarmed you.
- Coldcocked me, right here.
- And where was the other guard? Up the street, walking mrs.
Tonkins to her shop.
- And he'd done that before, right? - Yeah, every thursday.
Was anyone out sick that day? No.
Why? Well, the robbers waited till the other guard left.
Sounds like some familiarity with the bank, you know? Did anybody quit right afterwards? No, but we all wanted to.
I know this is difficult, ms.
Barkin, but the day before the robbery, Paul was in here looking to extend his loan, is that correct? Yes, his farm was failing.
He was yelling, angry You're sorry? You tell me my loan's in default, and you're sorry? Well, I can't pay you back if my farm's out of business.
- Paul, take it easy, please.
- Easy?! How, David? My family's about to lose their home.
What do you want me to do? According to your testimony, your fiance was worried he might return.
Is that right? Well, isn't it possible, ms.
Barkin, that your fiance was so concerned about Paul returning that he just naturally assumed the masked robber was Paul? - Why are you doing this? - I'm sorry? My fiance was murdered right in front of me, mr.
Swain.
The man I loved, the man I woke up every morning thinking about was murdered.
Paul Buckner is lucky to be alive, to get up in the morning, to enjoy and here you are.
Miss Barkin, um Look, um, I've seen all kinds of victims, and I've seen all kinds of survivors, and no one is ever helped by a lie.
But if Paul Buckner is truly guilty, then we'll be the first to make sure that he stays where he is.
You and Conti, huh? Are those words supposed to mean something? - I was talking to Sonya - This should be interesting.
She thinks that you-- as in you, Brianna-- have a thing for him, as in him, Conti.
So it's just Okay, first of all, Sonya is the one who has "the thing" for Conti, all right? Why else do you think she would ask those questions at all? And second, I don't understand what Office love affair? - Yes.
- Uh, no.
Thank you for agreeing to meet with us, mr.
Young.
We just had a couple of questions.
You want me to look at some pictures? Yeah, yeah.
Now that's the pickup you saw skiddin' at you, right? Yeah.
Well, hold on No, there's no supercab.
Oh, I see.
That was a little test, huh? - How'd I do? - Fine.
Now how about this one, sir? Yeah, that's it.
Great.
- Can I ask you, mr.
Young-- - It's Mickey.
Right, Mickey.
Uh, "the one.
" That's a cool nickname.
Thanks.
A little high school football.
- I played a little ball myself.
.
tailback.
- Okay, Jon.
Right.
Um We took a look at that police report.
Why'd it take you two days after the robbery to call? It didn't.
I called the cops right away.
It took them two days to phone me back.
- Really? - Yeah.
Small-town departments Well, you see, it's just the problem, mr.
Young, with witness identification, is that later recollections are not as reliable as first impressions.
Oh, I'm sure you're right, but, uh, I wrote that license plate on my hand, and that wasn't two days later.
That was like two seconds later.
Well, it's just there's nothing that says that our guy has to be innocent.
- So I take it it didn't go well? - Nah, no, no.
Hey, what you got set up here, a little puppet show? I have a connection in Sacramento-- an institute that catalogs violent crimes, and we found this This is the 1999 Ukiah robbery our guy is accused of.
Good.
This is another robbery committed three months earlier.
Watch, there's a hit to the stomach, then the back, and just like the Ukiah robbery, he tosses the guard's keys.
- How far away? Clearlake, about a hundred miles.
And this is a third robbery around that same period in Colusa.
80 miles away.
Stomach, back and look, there are the keys.
Three separate robberies, right? All with the same moves, same steps, same signature.
Here's another thing.
Look, check out this gunman.
And now check out the other robberies.
Left-handed.
Good work.
Thanks.
You know what else is interesting? This robbery was committed three months after Buckner was arrested, meaning if the same men committed these crimes, Buckner isn't guilty.
You're slowing down.
It's called age.
Must be time for a new wife.
Got a deal for you.
The answer is no.
Good.
Keep your eye on "the Chronicle" tomorrow.
What? 2002, the Mandel family trust.
Your firm had some "accounting irregularities.
" - Unexpected.
- I learned from the best.
You don't need to endorse me.
Just don't endorse Hackett.
- Give me till tomorrow.
- Fine.
Look, am I thrilled that you're reopening the Buckner case? No.
But did we do anything wrong? No.
Well, but the eyewitness, mr.
Young Yeah, I know what the eyewitness said.
But I can assure you firsthand that we contacted him.
He did not contact us.
We found his keys on the ground.
I don't understand.
How come .
.
He was scared out of his wits.
It hapends all the time.
Eyewitnesses run off.
We have to track 'em down.
You know, the issue of who contacted who never came up at trial.
Yeah, it looks like "mr.
One" has some bravery issues.
"The one.
" You saw your dad? How'd it go? What do you think? Okay So Jon and Brianna are checking the Ukiah police, seeing why it took 'em two days to contact this eyewitness with the license plate.
Good, great.
Mayberry issues play well in court.
Right, and Sonya and Damian are checking the evidence on these other pattern robberies.
Oh, and Tyler phoned.
- Who? The kid, David.
- What'd he want? - You.
He wanted to thank you.
Guess you guys really bonded, huh? Mr.
Conti, mr.
Swain.
Elliott Thompson, northern California bureau chief, A.
T.
F.
Can we talk a minute? These are the true patriots, a right-wing militia group based in Humboldt county.
They advocate the armed separation of white and black races and the destruction of institutions advancing the zionist conspiracy.
In order to finance their operations, they robbed several banks in the pacific northwest.
We believe these three robberies are their handiwork.
We arrested the core members in 2000, but some of the robbers may still be at large.
We were getting very close to locating the remaining true patriots until you started asking questions about a 1999 Ukiah robbery.
I'm sure it was not your intent.
However, you have sent our quarry back underground.
Thanks for the benefit of the doubt, Ted.
- Elliott.
- What? - My name is Elliott.
- Oh.
- How'd I get Ted? - I have no idea.
Well, if what you're saying is true, then Buckner didn't do this robbery the true patriots did.
This is a photo of Paul Buckner posing with top lieutenants of the true patriots.
I'm afraid to say it, gentlemen, but your client is a true patriot.
And if we back off? You'll have the undying gratitude of the united states government.
Is there a box for that on my tax returns? We'll give you regular updates on the investigation.
Anything we find, we'll share immediately.
- Are we gonna back off? - Are you kidding? Come on, everybody in town knew one or two of those idiots.
Yeah, but did everybody have their picture taken with them, Paul? What? He had a picture of you with four members of the true patriots.
Wait--wait a minute.
Was there a church in the background? Some of these guys were members of my church.
When I found out they were militia, I had nothing to do with them.
- Do you believe him? - I don't know.
I can only focus on one crime at a time, Charlie bank robberies, and then crimes against humanity.
You know, the A.
T.
F.
may have just done us a great service here.
Pointed us in the right direction? - You already thought of that? - Way ahead of you.
Yes, Sonya Okay, this is what we could pull together.
The A.
T.
F.
busted the true patriot compound in 2000.
They found plans for bombing two synagogues in Oakland and an assassination of a black judge in San Francisco.
There was a brief shootout 2 patriots dead, 12 arrested.
The A.
T.
F.
figured another dozen got away.
These are internal patriot photos, confiscated with their possessions.
- Were any vehicles confiscated? Yeah.
Why? Well, just the partial I.
D.
of the plate, the "3-o-I.
" I mean, maybe it lines up with one of the militia vehicles.
So maybe someone didn't take Buckner's pickup, but a militia vehicle was mistaken for it.
Look left-handed.
Maybe he's the left-handed shooter in all the bank robberies.
- Could be.
- That's Rodney Fleming.
He was killed in the 2000 shootout with the A.
T.
F.
Good.
Okay, two leads.
Let's track down everything we can on Fleming.
Sonya and Damian, check all the plates on the militia vehicles in the - Mr.
Conti? - Tyler, hi.
Is mr.
Swain here? Oh, why, there he is.
Hey.
Hi.
I just wanted to thank you.
I'm just doing job, kid.
But mr.
Conti said you made it top priority.
Oh, he did? Yeah, well, that's because mr.
Conti's a big troublemaker.
And just because the evidence of the case looks very promising.
.
Oh, jeez.
It's just something I made.
Open it.
From wood shop.
.
I thought you'd need 'em.
Yeah.
Yeah, I got lots of books, right? So, why wouldn't I need 'em? Okay.
My mom got remarried.
Yeah? I mean, I know they did it for me.
.
got divorced, because of life in prison and all.
But now he's getting out, right? I mean, if they're still in love, shouldn't they get back together? - Victoria? - I'm working out here.
I need you to work in here, please.
That works.
Okay, so here's Buckner's plate, right? Now "3-o-I"-- this is what Mickey Young remembered of Buckner's plate.
Oh, he's with victoria.
He's fine.
So we compared it to the three pickups that were confiscated at the true patriot compound.
Now it's not an exact match, right? But here's what we're thinking.
You got a truck racing at you.
You look up.
You see these plates.
Do you confuse this "o" with this "q"? And an "a" for an "I.
" It's a good thought, Sonya.
Well, can you do better? - That's a front plate.
- I'm sorry? No registration tags.
That's a front plate.
Let me see some pictures of the pickup.
If the eyewitness said he saw the truck backing up toward him, he couldn't see the front plate, right? - Right, just the rear one.
Look at this.
If he couldn't see the plate, he couldn't place Paul Buckner at the scene.
If he couldn't see the plate, how'd he get the numbers? Jeez, you guys are sticklers for details.
Sorry, "the one," uh, it's our boss.
Yeah, I know that tune.
We talked to the Ukiah police captain.
Now he said you never contacted him.
Yeah, he said that you were too scared.
And it was only after they found some keys that you dropped while running away terrified that you agreed to cooperate.
Of course he'd say that.
He's covering his ass.
Covering his ass.
.
see, that's what I told her.
See? Yeah, yeah, you were right.
I told you guys.
You're made for each other.
So, uh, is that it? Yeah, pretty much.
Uh, just one more thing.
Um, the pickup.
.
when it backed up toward you, you immediately wrote down that license plate, right? - Right, on my hand.
Over there.
- Over there.
But you never saw the front of the pickup, just--just the back, right? - Right, the pickup took off.
- Okay, good, good, good, 'cause I have a photo of the Buckner pickup.
Could you just read us that license plate, please? Out loud.
Yeah, and take your time.
We'll wait.
Buckner's truck was in a fender bender a month before the robbery.
We have the police report.
And that's how the pickup looked on the day of the robbery.
So there's no way you could've seen that plate.
- Yeah, why are you lying? - How did you get Buckner's plate? - How did you get Buckner's plate? - Who gave it to you? So what did Buckner ever do to you? Get out of his way.
- Nice bit of questioning.
- Thanks.
You too.
Okay, new direction--Mickey Young.
Why is he lying about our client? What do we have? He works at a printing shop up in Ukiah--Kangaroo printing.
And, credit reports show that he had some financial trouble in 1995 unpaid credit cards, civil law suits and judgements against him totaling, like, $30,000.
Yeah, but he was able to satisfy the judgments.
Well, his income was sporadic.
I wonder where he got his money.
Well, we can go down to the courthouse, pull the docket sheets, talk to the plaintiff's lawyers, find the source of the money.
Let's also check property records.
Sonya, Damian, see if Mickey was going after Buckner's land.
We'll meet with Buckner, see if he remembers any connection.
You think Paul's getting out? Well, habeas appeals are always difficult to predict, mrs.
Buckner.
Longworth.
Longworth.
But now, with Mickey Young's credibility in question Do you mean the man who saw the license plate? Yes.
Do you really think this Mickey Young lied? Yeah.
I'm sorry.
It's just I held out hope for so long.
And then everything was settled.
I was moving on.
And Brent he's been so good.
He's a good father and a good husband.
What do I do? Hey, it's good to see you.
It's not easy, is it? It's almost easier not to care.
All right, buddy.
So, uh, we'll see ya, all right? Okay, buddy? You go home with mom now.
I'll see ya in a month, buddy.
I love you.
There must be some confusion at your office.
Uh, there is no confusion.
I said I was gonna be here in an hour to take a look at those Mickey Young files.
Well, a man was here from the national justice project about 15 minutes ago.
A man came here and took the Young files? Well, yes.
He said he was gonna copy everything at the corner store and then bring it all back.
We went to the copy store, but no one showed up with the Young files.
- What? Yeah, same with the property records.
They're gone.
They said someone signed them out before us.
No, no, no.
Wait a minute.
We're being bugged.
The only way anybody could know we were going after Young's records is if they heard us in there.
Somebody like our good friends at the A.
T.
F.
Why? Why? Because we're being naughty.
Because they told us to back off, and we haven't.
We need to get that room swept.
Okay.
And stay off cell phones.
No work inside.
Okay.
Hey, listen, I didn't get a chance to tell you guys this before.
The property records are gone, but you can still check the deed sales online.
Yeah.
Rodney Fleming, the dead left-handed militiaman, co-owns a family home -with his half-brother-- Mickey Young.
- What? One of the shooters in the robbery is related to the key eyewitness.
What is going on here? You know I'm not interested in Conti.
Jon told me that you were asking what was going on between me and him.
Look, okay, it's not that big a deal, all right? Just tell him.
- Who, Jon? No.
Conti.
Tell him what? I don't know.
I mean, maybe ask him out for a drink? Or say you wanna go.
.
- No What? Why not? Because.
Look, we're not in high school, all right? He's not your teacher.
And with what we're getting paid, he's barely your boss.
So I'm just saying-- Listen up.
Close the door.
We've got a new theory of the case.
Mickey Young wanted to cover for his brother's involvement in the robbery, so he set up our client.
Mr.
Swain? Your father is here.
Oh, tell him I'll meet-- No, in my office.
Sonya? I want you to go to-- You okay? - Yeah.
I want you to go to the Ukiah bank and talk to Marcia Barkin.
Do you remember who that is? - The victim's fiancee.
- Right.
Tell her that we need Mickey Young's account records, okay? Oh, and tell her it's to uncover a lie.
Fine.
You're sidelining yourself from the campaign? You're dropping the state bar matter? This isghastly.
Did you ever love me? What do you mean? I mean, was there ever a time in my life when you were happier that I was alive than dead? - Is this a trick? - Yeah, dad, it's a trick.
The room is bugged, and I'm gonna use the fact that you might have feelings to blackmail you.
David, you know how all this talk makes me uncomfortable.
And I don't care.
Because I have an inkling that most fathers don't act this way towards their sons.
I'm not most fathers, David.
You are not most sons.
Good-bye, father.
Think you fellas dropped these.
Well, do I get my deposit back? Do you have a complaint, mr.
Swain? No, Ruby Ridge and Waco were years ago.
You're accusing us of bugging? Now why would i do that? I'm merely representing a client who was wrongly convicted of a robbery in 1999 in which the main witness was only was only contacted by the police after dropping his key chain at the scene.
What? Charlie the police only contacted Mickey Young after they found his keys, right? Yeah.
So what's he doing at a crime scene where his half-brother is robbing the bank? I mean, that is either the strangest coincidence in the world.
.
Or not a coincidence at all.
Exactly, which means that either Mickey is-- David, we should now.
Oh, yes, we should.
Thank you.
Which means either Mickey is a lookout Or the shooter himself.
Okay, now listen to this.
.
I had Sonya check Mickey Young's financial records, and he was in trouble until he received $40,000 from a blind numbered account.
Barkin found the source.
Guess where.
Right here.
You're kidding.
Payments made in '99 and 2000.
Each in the same month as the A.
T.
F.
raids on the true patriots.
Informant money.
So you think they would've let Buckner go to prison just to protect an informant? - Oh, yes.
Joseph Salvati.
The guy spent 30 years in prison for a gangland murder he didn't commit.
The hit was actually carried out by an informant for the F.
B.
I.
They not only sent an innocent man to prison, they had the gall to put the killer on the stand to testify against Salvati.
I mean, all to protect their informant.
- So the answer is yes? - Oh, yeah.
All right.
You want me to stay here? - Just give me a second.
- All right.
real tight on that fourth turn there.
He's got to stay down and shoot the gap if he's gonna make a run - Mickey Young? - Who are you? I'm Charles Conti.
Let's talk.
Elliott, you don't understand.
He was crazy.
This guy was crazy.
Said he wasn't a cop.
He didn't have to play by the rules.
He breaks my chair! - Well, just hold on! Now hold on.
Who was he? This guy who works with Swain.
And they know you were trying to stop their investigation.
He said he had everything.
He was just gonna lay it out-- What do you mean "everything?" What did you tell him? I didn't tell him anything.
It's what he told me.
Meaning that you and Fleming were half-brothers? That's nothing.
No, the money in my account.
.
How much you were paying me to be an informant.
- License plate? - Oh, yeah.
Me calling you after the robbery, you giving me Buckner's plate everything! Well, they can make all the wild accusations they want.
Look, I don't care! You need to get me a deal, or I'm talking to your boss.
Okay.
You'll be fine.
I'll phone you tonight.
Just don't talk to anybody.
For the cause.
Mr.
Young, you're under arrest for the murder of David Wolfe.
We've agreed not to seek the death penalty in trade for your cooperation in investigating David Swain's claim that Elliott Thompson used A.
