I'm Sergeant Detective Della Pesca.
:20:06
You wanna tell me what happened?
:20:13
What is it, you were trying to rob
this man's gold watch...

:20:16
and he fought back,
and so you stabbed him?

:20:20
Is that pretty much it?
:20:23
I-I-- didn't do nothin'.
:20:30
Let me tell you something, sunshine.
:20:33
The man you stabbed...
:20:35
is a very important member
of this community...

:20:39
and you are goin' down.
:20:43
Do you see?
And I am going to see to it personally.

:20:49
As foryou, Rubin Carter,
you're a menace to society.

:20:53
If something isn't done
about you soon...

:20:55
you'll become a dangerous man
in later life.

:20:57
I only wish you were old enough
I could send you to state prison.

:21:01
I therefore sentence you...
:21:04
to the state home for boys
in Jamesburg...

:21:07
from this day till you're
21 years of age.

:21:11
- So be it.
- It's okay, son.

:21:15
Jamesburg was a place of horror
that I would be forever sorry...

:21:18
to have known existed.
:21:20
It was there that I spent the next
eight years learning how to maim...

:21:24
butcher and fight for my survival.
:21:38
I don't get what's goin' on here.
I'm the boy's father.

:21:41
I take care of him.
I don't know what you people--

:21:44
I mean, what's it to you?
:21:47
M-Mr Martin, we've gotten to know
Lesra over the past few weeks.

:21:50
And I gotta tell you, he's got
more natural ability and enthusiasm...

:21:54
than just about any kid
I've ever worked with.

:21:58
So, when he told us
he wanted to go to college...
