They pay for it. | They pay for everything.
This is your dream, Emily.
You'll be leaving us.
It's okay.
I'll be okay.
I'm gonna show this to your father.
- Counselor. Thanks for meeting me. | - Sure.
Can I buy you a drink, Mr. Thomas? | He makes an excellent martini.
Just water for me, please.
So...
...the judge thinks we should offer | a new plea agreement.
She feels the community might be | better served without this trial.
How do you feel about it?
Personally.
My job is to represent | the interests of the people...
...and make an effort to be objective.
I ask because I know | you're a churchgoer.
Now you're set to prosecute | a man of God.
...and a young girl is dead.
If he's a man of God, then, personally, | I think he's even more subject...
...to the laws of moral behavior. | If it were up to me, he'd get no deal.
And forgiveness and compassion? | Isn't that part of your creed?
Or does that just get in the way | of your work?
If you have compassion | for your client...
...you'll persuade him to accept this:
Charges reduced | to reckless endangerment.
Twelve months in a county jail.
Reducible to six, plus probation, | if he stays out of trouble.
Somehow I expect | he can manage that.
But please understand me. | If he refuses, I will seek the maximum.
Father Moore has made it clear | there will be no plea agreement.
He will not lie or admit to something | he is not guilty of.
- And he was never neglectful of Emily. | - "Never neglectful"?
Have you seen | the postmortem photographs?
We'll go to trial. My client wants | the public to know the truth.
Good.
So do I.
Have a good night, counselor.
Let the record show that the defendant | and his counsel are present...
...and that the jury is seated.
- Mr. Thomas, you may begin. | - Thank you, Your Honor.
Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. | My name is Ethan Thomas.
I'm the assistant district attorney, | and I represent the people.
In the case before you, | the evidence will show...
...that the victim had a serious medical | condition that demanded treatment.
We will prove that the victim's | condition rendered her physically...
...and psychologically incapable | of caring for herself.
Her care...
...was then wholly entrusted...
...to that man, the defendant, | Father Richard Moore.
She became his responsibility...
...and he betrayed | that responsibility...
...by persuading her to abandon | her medical treatment...
...in favor of religious treatment:
A ritual exorcism, | performed by the defendant...
...allegedly to cure the victim | by ridding her of demonic forces.
We will demonstrate | that this course of action...
