Mr. Rainey?
Ill pull them in, if you name them.
- That's not good enough, Art.
- Well, that's all there is.
I take orders.
You give me an order, Ill do it.
You know anybody in Rock Point
that will go to the inquest for you
Tell me, and Ill bring them in.
If you don't, and you don't,
stop kicking my men around for not doing
what you can't do yourself.
I know.
New York, Washington, or points north,
starts poking his nose in our affairs,
we holler foul.
Well, if we don't want the meddling,
one of these days
we're gonna have to start cleaning up
our own messes.
You and me. All of us.
How far did you get eight months ago
with that lynching?
About as far as Ill get with this one.
Thought you might wanna see him, Burt.
- I was in bed. He got me out of bed.
- Hello, Frank.
The night bus was supposed
to stop 10 minutes.
- It didn't. It left right away.
- I have nothing to do with the bus stops.
I just handle the baggage.
You know that, Mr. Rainey.
Im just a baggage man.
- You were there when the bus pulled out?
- Yes, sir.
a man was killed.
He told me about that.
I suppose... Yes, sir.
You didn't see anything? Hear anything?
Please, Mr. Rainey,
don't ask me any questions.
I don't wanna lie to you.
Im a family man just like you see me.
I love my kids. I gotta protect them.
A mob that did what those people
did tonight,
would burn me up like that.
I ask you, what would you do in my place?
Tell the truth.
Could you afford to get involved?
- Let him go.
- Im sorry.
But what they did tonight,
believe me, I hate it.
It made me sick.
I don't know, maybe Im just a coward.
- Maybe I just use my family as an excuse...
- All right, Frank, all right.
Believe me, Mr. Rainey, Im sorry.
- He's got a case.
- Everybody's got a case.
Nobody saw anything.
Nobody heard anything.
It' s a shame
Adams' body keeps getting in the way.
I don't know who's the guiltier,
the one who commits the crime
or the one who just stands by
and refuses to do anything about it.
Sometimes, I sit around for hours
trying to figure that one out.
Take Jaeger in there.
He makes allowances for the Klan.
He's really against guys like Adams,
yet he gets his head broke
trying to protect him.
Complicated, isn't it?
Here we are trying to find
a bunch of murderers.
When we find them, who will they be?
Probably friends of ours,
fellows we went to school with.
- You a member of the Klan, Walters?
- I used to be.
- You're kidding.
- Fact.
Why'd you join?
I thought it was something to do good.
You know, help people.
Get them out of trouble, keep them out.
