That, with intent to cause
the death of Victor Taft...

1:17:06
she shot him in the chest three times.
1:17:09
We'll call witnesses
who'll testify under oath to seeing...

1:17:12
Chelsea Deardon flee the scene.
1:17:14
Ballistics will prove...
1:17:16
the gun was registered
to Chelsea Deardon.

1:17:19
And most important...
1:17:21
her fingerprints were all over that gun.
1:17:26
We'll prove Chelsea Deardon
was at the scene of the crime...

1:17:30
had the means to commit a crime
and had every opportunity to do so.

1:17:34
Opportunity and means:
1:17:37
Crucial evidence which, by themselves,
could establish guilt...

1:17:41
beyond a reasonable doubt
in a murder case.

1:17:43
But we will also provide
a compelling motive as well.

1:17:51
This was a crime committed by a woman...
1:17:55
who was secretly Victor Taft's
lover for two years...

1:17:57
during which time he was
her only means of financial support.

1:18:04
It's been one lie after another.
1:18:06
We looked like incompetent idiots.
1:18:08
Why didn't you tell us about it?
Thought you could hide it?

1:18:11
lt wasn't common knowledge.
1:18:12
We never went out in public together.
1:18:15
If you knew,
it would make me look more guilty.

1:18:17
You went to his apartment,
you had a fight and killed him!

1:18:20
No! I didn't!
1:18:22
We fought, but I didn't kill him.
1:18:24
You shot Taft, went to Logan's apartment...
1:18:26
and involved him
so he'd clear everything.

1:18:28
I went there because I was scared.
1:18:31
Why don't you believe me?
I didn't kill anyone.

1:18:38
That's the most preposterous explanation
I've ever heard.

1:18:41
Yeah, it is.
1:18:43
- I believe her.
- What?

1:18:47
Based on her track record so far?
1:18:50
No, hunch. lnstinct.
1:18:52
Let's hope it's coming
from above the waist.
