- I'm glad you'll be handling my case.

- I haven't offiicially agreed yet.

Brian, do you have a moment?

Mr. Mulholland,

this is Brian Armstrong.

If we do decide to take your case,

Brian does all my investigative work.

I'm gonna be blunt, Mr. Mulholland.

I am bothered that you were involved

with a girl who worked at your club.

It may seem like you're using

your position to exploit her.

I'm a businessman, Ms. Doherty.

I own grocery stores, pharmacies.

I even own a new age bookstore.

Do you date the girls that work

in those establishments too?

Not the bookstore.

I'm single.

I enjoy the company of women...

particularly beautiful women.

But it's important

that you understand...

I had nothing to do

with Virginia Hill's death.

My job is to provide my client

with the best possible defense.

My personal opinions are irrelevant.

Well, it's relevant to me.

I'm not looking for a Johnnie Cochran

to get me off with smoke and mirrors.

I need my attorney to believe

in my innocence.

If you're unable to do so...

we're wasting each other's time.

Is your full name

David Philip Mulholland?

Yes.

Were you involved in a sexual

relationship with Virginia Hill?

- What's your gut on this guy?

- I don't know.

I wouldn't want my daughter

dating him.

I like that he wants us

to believe he's innocent so badly.

So does every inmate

on death row.

There's a lot of evidence

against him.

Yeah.

Yeah, the evidence.

Are you responsible

for the death of Virginia Hill?

No.

Hello,John.

Been drinking?

You fiight better when you're drunk.

I don't drink anymore,

and I'm not here to fiight.

- I'm here to talk some sense into you.

- You don't have the credentials.

Cute.

Is this a vendetta, Maureen? Are you

taking this case to get back at me?

You know better,

as much as I'd like to.

And in case you're interested,

Mulholland aced the polygraph.

He beat the polygraph.

He killed her...

just as sure

as he killed Teresa.

John, I know you loved your niece.

We both did.

But you weren't objective.

You picked Mulholland as the killer

and you never looked back.

Did you know that...

she told her roommate...

that he liked to tie her up

and hurt her?

Hearsay, Your Honor, which you

would know if you had stuck it out.

The problem is,

I don't like lawyers.

Which is why you would've

made a good one.

Instead you became a bent cop.

Objection, Counselor. They never

proved that I planted that evidence.

Well, we both know better.

Don't we,John?

Yeah, well, a wife can't testify

against her husband.

- Ex-wife.

- Ah. Must be why I stopped drinking.

F*** you,John.

If I so much as hear the DA whisper

Teresa's name in that courtroom...
