Every victim deserves our respect. Even the ones that raped forty women.
It's these damn cameras. They cause a lot of trouble.
Maybe. That's one way to look at it. Another is that cameras keep us accountable.
First time in twenty years people actually care about a Black man getting shot.
That's funny. If it was a joke. If not, you can save your speech for someone else, because I am not in the mood for politics right now.
[to Price] I'm a cop. A good one. I catch 'em, you cook 'em. That's how this is supposed to work. Like it or not, I get paid to lie to people like Nicole Bell. Stop trying to save the world and do your damn job.
[about Nicole] She put on a hell of a show today.
Jury ate it up, too. Juror number four had tears in her eyes.
I get it. Her story's heartbreaking. But they have to know that she's lying, that this self-defense claim is nonsense.
They know. They just don't care.
Henry King did some horrible things. He took something from Nicole Bell that she can never get back. Unfortunately, in the eyes of the law, that doesn't matter. When a good woman kills a horrible man in cold blood, it's called murder.
It's okay to play the hero, Nolan, as long as you win.
Maroun: I'm a prosecutor. I'm sworn to enforce the laws of this state. Yet I understand the defendant's desire for revenge, for street justice. Nine years ago, my sister was raped and murdered in Georgia. Police never arrested the offender. But I knew who did it. Police knew, too. Just couldn't prove it. So it's easy to understand the defendant's rage, her desire for vengeance, her need for this son of a bitch to pay for what he did to her, to suffer like he made her suffer. When Henry King was released from prison, the defendant's thirst for revenge escalated. Maybe she even began to fantasize about killing him. Pictured herself grabbing a gun, going to his house, waiting for him to show up. She probably even planned what she was going to say, where she was going to shoot him. Those types of fantasies are perfectly normal. Trust me. They're also perfectly legal. But to actually take the life of another human being, to wait outside someone's house and shoot him five times in cold blood, that's not only wrong, that's criminal. Just ... Just because you're suffering and you're filled with anger doesn't mean you get to play God. Now that doesn't mean you shouldn't have tremendous sympathy for the defendant, that you shouldn't appreciate the pain and the suffering she endured. So, when you go back to the jury room to deliberate, give yourself permission to feel sorry for her. But that doesn't mean she's innocent, that she should walk free. This case comes down to one simple question. Did Nicole Bell intentionally shoot and kill Henry King? If the answer is yes, you must convict.
