1:18:03
Would you tell?
1:18:05
That's what happened.
I was trying to get her home.

1:18:11
The driver's side was down because...
1:18:14
the lady was a little sick.
She needed some air.

1:18:18
Because she was pretty drunk.
1:18:28
See, the Millers,
one is black and one is white.

1:18:30
They said I was going with...
The reason I was over that night...

1:18:34
I was over there
messing with this man's wife.

1:18:36
And I ain't never gone with her in
my life. She was too old and ugly.

1:18:41
Like I said, the D.A. Will
put something into their mouth.

1:18:45
They could have
prefabricated the whole story.

1:18:49
They sure could have.
1:18:50
But what I saw is just what I saw.
That was it.

1:18:53
So if they got paid, they got paid for lying.
1:18:59
They already decided
what to do with you in the hall.

1:19:02
That's why they call it the Hall of
Justice, the scales are not balanced.

1:19:06
The scales are in the hall,
and they go up and down.

1:19:09
They might go up for you, favor one
way, they might go down against you.

1:19:14
So if the D.A. Wants you to hang
15 or 20 years, you're hung.

1:19:21
I had all these charges
still pending in Orange County.

1:19:28
I could have been certified as an adult...
1:19:31
maybe given a life sentence. I don't know.
1:19:35
I'm 16 years old. I know I don't want that.
1:19:39
That District Attorney told me,
"Don't worry about them charges."

1:19:43
"I'm gonna ask your...
Defense Attorney is gonna ask you...

1:19:47
"if you had any kind of deal...
1:19:51
"or anything of that nature...
1:19:54
"in exchange for your testimony
in this case...

1:19:57
"as relating to those charges.
