Anything you say can and

will be used against you

in the court of law.

You've got the right to...

Been trying to

reach you all morning.

What's going on?

Mass shooting at a

downtown hotel lobby.

I'll lake lead.

Lock, I am telling

you, Detective,

like I told the other officer,

I did not kill those people.

I am telling you the truth, okay?

What did your lie

detector tell you?

What did your test tell you?

Please listen to me.

Look at me!

I swear to God,

check your result,

check your machine, do

whatever you gotta do

but please believe me.

Look, Jack, I just

wanna get to know you

for a second, okay?

A lot has happened.

Brother Jack Simon,

served two tours in Iraq,

honorably discharged

after your entire unit

was blindsided by a

group of insurgents.

That must've sucked, pal.

I know you got a lot going on

upstairs right now, all right?

So I just wanna

show you something

and then ask you a

few questions, okay?

Nice and easy.

Nice and easy, right?

Turn it off.

I said turn it off, please.

Okay.

- That's not me.

This is telling

me different, Jack.

I could never do

that to someone.

I could never.

You're looking at seven counts

of premeditated murder, son.

Eight counts.

Another woman just

died in the hospital.

You two, a minute, now.

Be right back.

Listen, guys, we all agree

it's a terrible tragedy

what happened this morning

but Homeland Security

and FBI both want

in on this guy.

I'm gonna turn him over.

We'll do what we can for the

victims and their families

and that's it.

Let's wrap it up, okay?

What's wrong with

the world today?

Ton many goddamn agencies.

None of which work together.

Don't break my balls.

Let's just wrap

it, Phil, please?

Come on.

All right.

You okay, Jack?

I'm guilty, I did it.

You got me, you caught me.

I'd like to see

my lawyer, please.

Can I get that in writing?

Sure.

Now we know you're guilty.

Why d'you do it?

I got a simple answer

for you, Detective.

John Kennedy once said, The

cost of freedom is always high

"but Americans have

always paid it."

"And the path that

we'd never take"

is to choose the path of

surrender or submission.

Now sometimes innocent

people must die

in order for us to

follow that path.

Murder is never acceptable.

Now I want you to look at me.

There's no such thing as

murder in war, soldier.

Jesus Christ!

Get in here!

I gotta tell you how many

hours I've been on the phone

getting my ass chewed

off because of this.

Captain, you were there.

Obviously, the guy was suffering

from some severe form of PTSD.

There was nothing

that we could do.

It's all a matter

of perspective.

You two were in

the room with him.
