...so no comparison could be made
between your gun and the bullets...

:04:08
...taken from the bloodstained corpses
of the victims.

:04:12
And that also...
:04:15
...is very convenient.
Isn't it, Mr.Dufresne?

:04:20
Since I am innocent of this crime...
:04:22
...I find it decidedly inconvenient
that the gun was never found.

:04:45
Ladies and gentlemen, you've heard
all the evidence.

:04:48
We have the accused at the scene
of the crime. We have footprints.

:04:52
Bullets on the ground
bearing his fingerprints.

:04:55
A broken bourbon bottle,
likewise with fingerprints.

:04:59
And most of all...
:05:00
...we have a beautiful young woman
and her lover...

:05:04
...lying dead in each other's arms.
:05:07
They had sinned.
:05:11
But was their crime so great...
:05:13
...as to merit a death sentence?
:05:16
While you think about that...
:05:20
...think about this:
:05:22
A revolver holds six bullets, not eight.
:05:26
I submit that this was not
a hot-blooded crime of passion.

:05:30
That at least could be understood,
if not condoned.

:05:33
No.
:05:34
This was revenge...
:05:36
...of a much more brutal,
cold-blooded nature. Consider this:

:05:40
Four bullets per victim.
:05:43
Not six shots fired, but eight.
:05:46
That means that he fired
the gun empty...

:05:49
...and then stopped to reload...
:05:52
...so that he could shoot
each of them again.

:05:55
An extra bullet per lover...
:05:59
...right in the head.
