:24:01
Thanks.
If I take it to triaI, they'II destroy her.

:24:04
She walked in alone, she got drunk,
she got stoned, she came on to them.

:24:08
- She's got a prior for possession.
- That's inadmissible.

:24:11
Sure, but they'II ask her about it.
:24:13
I'II object, the judge'II sustain it,
but the jury'II hear it.

:24:17
I read her Q and A.
Gang-raped on a pinbaII machine.

:24:20
- It's an ugIy case.
- But is it a winnabIe case?

:24:23
Kathryn, we understand
that you Iove to win.

:24:26
But I can't Iet you dismiss this
because you don't have a Iock.

:24:29
A Iock? I don't have a case.
:24:31
Her girlfriend didn't see anything,
the bartender didn't.

:24:34
The others either didn't see anything
or didn't think it was anything speciaI.

:24:38
I got PoIito, but once the defence
brings up that he's on probation,

:24:42
they'II know that we squeezed him.
:24:44
What about the guy who called,
who reported it?

:24:47
We have his voice on tape, but we don't
know who he is or where to find him.

:24:51
Kathryn, do you believe
she was raped?

:24:54
Yes. But I can't win it.
:24:57
And they can't walk.
So make a deal and you put 'em away.

:25:00
- A deaI with what?
- You got enough. Go for rape two.

:25:07
Any felony, as long as it's a violent one.
:25:09
Assault, coercion,
reckless endangerment, menacing...

:25:13
- I can't do that.
- You said she was raped.

:25:16
So make a deaI and put 'em away.
:25:18
I don't care if they onIy get six months.
Just make a deaI and put 'em away.

:25:32
Do you understand, Mr Polito, that
you'll be testifying before a grand jury?

:25:38
Yeah, I got that.
:25:39
And you'II be testifying
against peopIe you're acquainted with?

:25:43
Yeah.
:25:44
Mr Polito, have I or anyone in the
sheriff's department or the DA's office

:25:49
offered you any inducement to testify?
:25:51
Money, gifts, anything?
:25:55
- No.
- Thank you, Mr Polito.
