1:18:02
and you're basically
terrorizing the defendant.
1:18:05
You're telling the defendant
1:18:06
"Look, if you plead guilty
1:18:08
you know,
we'll give you a good deal
1:18:10
and, on,
you know, 2 charges.
1:18:12
But if you insist
on going to trial
1:18:14
we're going to put
1,003 charges on you.
1:18:16
And if you're convicted
of all those charges
1:18:19
you're gonna rot in jail
the rest of your life. "
1:18:22
I was told that
if he went to trial
1:18:26
the judge would give
3 consecutive sentences.
1:18:32
Instead of concurrent
1:18:34
the sentencing
would be consecutive.
1:18:36
I said, "Oh, my god. "
1:18:38
She just kept telling me
over and over
1:18:40
"The only thing to do
is to plead guilty
1:18:42
and to get the
best deal you can.
1:18:43
You can't go to trial.
1:18:44
It doesn't matter
if you're guilty or innocent.
1:18:46
You can't go to trial,
because if you go to trial
1:18:48
you're gonna go to prison
for the rest of your life. "
1:18:51
I said, "But Ma,
I didn't do it. "
1:18:52
She said,
"That doesn't matter.
1:18:53
You have to plead guilty. "
1:18:55
You have to understand,
this is a 19-year-old kid
1:19:00
and he is now facing the most
heinous charge known to man
1:19:05
and everyone in the world
1:19:09
slowly but surely,
was turning against him.
1:19:17
I don't care about my parents.
1:19:18
I wish it was just my brothers.
1:19:22
Oh, fuck.
1:19:24
I don't care about my mother,
that's for sure.
1:19:27
If my brothers were OK
1:19:28
then my mother could go
to fucking hell.
1:19:31
My father is not going
to survive
1:19:32
if my brother
gets incarcerated.
1:19:36
So
1:19:38
so when the guilty verdict
comes in on Jesse
1:19:43
my father's
gonna kill himself.
1:19:45
Jesse's gonna go to jail
for the rest of his life.
1:19:47
Seth is gonna move west.
1:19:51
Fuck fuck.
1:19:58
I received a telephone call
from Jesse asking to see me
