The Reckoning: The Battle for the International Criminal Court Page #3

in the complexities of international law.

Schumer, Clment...

...this entire f***ing wall.

There's nothing that complex

about cold-blooded murder.

Hi. I've got an appointment

with Mr. Skarssen.

- Your name, please?

- Mr. Salinger? Please follow me.

Mr. Skarssen.

Mr. Skarssen.

Agent Salinger? Please follow me.

Mr. White.

Agent Salinger.

I apologize for the wait.

I'm Martin White,

the IBBC's legal counsel.

This is Commissioner Villon

of the gendarmerie.

I thought it useful for him to join us,

considering the nature of your query.

Please, have a seat.

I think there's

some misunderstanding.

I'm here to speak with Mr. Skarssen.

Yes, but as Mr. Skarssen's attorney,

I insisted that I speak with you first.

Mr. White, I had a confirmed meeting

with Mr. Skarssen at 11:00.

If I was gonna meet with you first,

why didn't anybody tell me?

I understand,

and I'm sorry for the confusion...

...but I'm sure I can help

answer your questions.

Now, please, have a seat.

As I'm sure you're aware...

...I have some questions

regarding Andr Clment.

Yes.

It's my understanding

that Mr. Clment was working...

...at Mr. Skarssen's residence

the night he was killed.

The night of the accident, yes.

What time did he arrive

at Skarssen's home that day?

If I recall correctly, around 6 p.m.

- You were there?

- Yes.

And you're certain about this time?

Quite.

I'm confused.

What you're telling me conflicts

with Skarssen's statement...

...in the gendarmerie's

accident report...

...which was that Clment had been

working with him since 10 a.m.

I was present when Mr. Skarssen

gave his statement.

- That is not what he said.

- It is according to this report.

May I?

There is an error

in the preliminary draft.

The time is wrong.

The finalized report here

says Clment arrived at 6 p.m.

Clerical errors like this

can happen from time to time.

This is why the gendarmerie

discourages the release...

...of any preliminary documentation

pertaining to open cases.

So is there anything else

we can do for you, Agent Salinger?

- Yeah.

- It's me.

I just got the results from

the tox analysis I ran on Schumer.

- And?

- It's inconclusive.

Inconclusive? What the hell

is that supposed to mean?

They found trace elements

of cyanide in his blood...

... but the levels

are not nearly high enough...

... to meet their criteria

for poisoning.

Are you there?

Sorry.

I'm sorry.

Are you crazy?

Madame Clment?

It's Eleanor Whitman from the

New York District Attorney's office.

I already left a couple

messages just...

Mrs. Clment,

I'm sorry to keep calling you.

I can only imagine what a difficult time

this must be for you.
