After a brief chase across the rail yard
behind St. Michael's Cathedral,
Stampler was apprehended
in a hole beneath train tracks...
- Are you defending this man?
- I'm sorry...
Thank you very much. Thank you.
in the process.
I can now take your questions.
Shaughnessy, what about the
altar boy group Stampler was part of?
Not much at this time.
Could other altar boys be involved?
We have no reason to suspect
anyone other than Stampler.
He had access to the Archbishop's
quarters. He was caught as he fled.
The blood-soaked Aaron Stampler
was chased under McCormick Place,
but not before he was almost killed
by a passing train.
He's gonna call you
as soon as he gets here. Thank you.
- Naomi!
- Yeah.
Sorry, I'm late.
We have a new client.
- I was afraid you were gonna say that.
- Who?
You know what they're calling him?
The Butcher Boy of St. Mike's.
- I like that.
- You'll be hearing it a lot.
Is the kid who chopped up
the Archbishop our client?
You have to get "allegedly" into your
vocabulary if you want to be a lawyer.
- Coffee, Tommy?
- No, thanks.
He admits he was in the room when
the killing occurred, but he didn't see it.
- Can I stop you right there?
- No. He was returning a book.
He heard loud noises in the bedroom.
He went in. He sees a figure in
the shadows, kneeling over the body.
He blacks out. Next thing he knows,
sirens are screaming,
he's covered in blood.
The cops find him in a train tunnel.
He's got the Archbishop's ring on him.
- He stole the Archbishop's ring?
- No, it was in his pocket.
Is that it?
Yep.
That's...
That's the worst bullshit story
Now it's our bullshit story.
OK. Let's get to work.
The name of the game is "motive".
The Prosecution doesn't have one.
We have to prove that someone
else could have committed the crime,
then we can establish
reasonable doubt.
I want to know everthing I can
about this guy.
Go to Database,
go to Hall of Records, IRS files.
- Even so-called charities.
- So-called? He was a priest.
Naomi, write this down. B 32.1 56. It
was carved into the Archbishop's chest.
- Allegedly.
- No, that was a fact.
- But I appreciate the effort.
- Thanks.
I also need case histories on murder
by stabbing, mutilation and religion.
- Also I'm gonna need a psychiatrist.
- You're telling me.
Not the kind who lives
in a witness box. I need a real one.
- And an expert on amnesia.
- What does he look like in person?
The Butcher Boy?
- Like a boy scout.
- A boy scout...
..with a merit badge in carving.
The Archbishop was
