:59:02
One night, knowing his wife is out...
:59:04
...he calls her and begs her
to see him again.
:59:07
Carolyn finally agrees.
:59:10
She rolls around with him
for auld lang syne.
:59:13
Then something goes wrong.
:59:15
Sabich is jealous. He wants more
than she's willing to give.
:59:19
He blows it.
:59:20
Gives her what for
with some heavy instrument.
:59:23
Decides to make it look like rape.
:59:25
Sabich is a prosecutor,
knows there'll be dozens of suspects.
:59:30
He ties her up.
:59:31
Opens the latches to make it look
like someone slipped in.
:59:36
And this is the diabolical part...
:59:38
...pulls out her diaphragm
so it looks like rape.
:59:41
But in his haste and confusion,
he makes mistakes.
:59:45
He forgets the glass he drank from.
:59:47
He doesn't think the forensic chemist
will be able to ID the spermicide.
:59:52
But we know he did evil to this woman...
:59:55
...because he lied about his presence
in her apartment the night she was killed.
1:00:00
His fingerprints on the glass...
1:00:02
...his blood type A identified from semen...
1:00:05
...fibers from the carpets in his home,
tell us he was there.
1:00:10
Very convincing.
1:00:14
But their evidence of motive is weak.
1:00:16
That's where we must attack.
1:00:19
Is there any proof of prior
amorous relationship between the two?
1:00:23
A few telephone calls.
1:00:24
They can be accounted for
by business needs.
1:00:26
-Any diary?
-No.
1:00:28
No note that came with flowers?
No lovers' correspondence?
1:00:31
-No.
-Good.
1:00:32
Gossip will not be admitted.
1:00:34
There are calls from my home to Carolyn's
in October of last year.
1:00:38
You were trying the case
of Wendell McGaffney then.
1:00:41
Reason enough for calling her.
1:00:43
Why did I tell Lipranzer not to get
my home phone records?
1:00:46
I take it for granted that a person
of an innocent state of mind...
1:00:50
...would rule himself out as a suspect...
1:00:52
...and save a busy detective
from wasting time.
1:00:56
Clearly, they hope to win the case
on the strength of their physical evidence.
