(Kelly)
Fine guy,

:59:01
And on top of that
he's, uh,
he's movie star quality,

:59:05
(Damiano)
First of all,
he was very tall,

:59:07
And l hate tall people.
:59:10
Uh...
:59:11
But he was also
very arrogant.

:59:14
lf you're gonna dance,
you need to pay the piper.

:59:16
And, uh, l'm the piper.
:59:18
You've got to be accountable
under the law.

:59:21
lt was like
when some people know

:59:23
that they have
the answer to everything

:59:26
and everybody else
is--is--is--is totally wrong.

:59:30
lt was purely and simply
a matter of law enforcement.

:59:35
And l guess if there was
any passion in it for me,

:59:38
it was that, um,
:59:41
these are laws
that had not been enforced.

:59:44
And l knew of no reason
:59:46
why they should
not be enforced.

:59:49
(Hopper)
To make his case,

:59:50
Larry Parrish invoked
a highly unusual use

:59:53
of the conspiracy laws,
:59:55
The government explained
their conspiracy theory

:59:58
in the terms of a train.
1:00:02
(Kramer)
That if the train starts
in Los Angeles

1:00:05
and you get on in Los Angeles,
1:00:07
and you ride to Denver
and get off,

1:00:10
but the train continues
on to Memphis,

1:00:12
you are legally responsible
for the entire journey,

1:00:17
And if you're responsible
for everything
that takes place,

1:00:19
you have unlimited liability.
1:00:21
This was a very creative use
of the law of conspiracy

1:00:25
and prosecutors
should never be creative.

1:00:29
That's not their job.
1:00:31
lf my mother
had been involved,

1:00:33
she would
have been indicted.

1:00:34
l will promise you that.
Uh, she wasn't.

1:00:38
when you tell artists,
bad artists or good artists,

1:00:41
that they cannot experiment
in certain avenues,

1:00:43
you are taking away
the basic freedoms
of every American.

1:00:46
For some reason, though,
1:00:49
it was as if
he is involved in art.

1:00:53
And so art is protected.
1:00:56
well, not by the definition
of the Supreme Court.

1:00:59
(Reems)
Maybe I'm disgusting
in some peoples' eyes,
