0:00:22 > 0:00:25- Man needs moving. Cannae do it all by myself.- No!

0:00:25 > 0:00:28It isnae a request, pal.

0:00:28 > 0:00:29Now!

0:00:30 > 0:00:32TRAIN HORN TOOTS

0:00:32 > 0:00:36None of this is coming back to me. You got that?

0:00:36 > 0:00:38What do you want to do, Mr Mullen?

0:00:39 > 0:00:41The right thing.

0:00:41 > 0:00:45Yesterday afternoon, Shieldinch Police detained a 67-year-old man

0:00:45 > 0:00:49in relation to the murder of city lawyer Paul Malick.

0:00:49 > 0:00:51I can now confirm the suspect has been charged.

0:00:51 > 0:00:56Billy's going to rot in jail. That's better than any bullet.

0:00:56 > 0:00:58Jimmy Mullen's still going to testify.

0:00:58 > 0:01:00Do you think I'm goin' down for that? Do you?

0:01:02 > 0:01:03We'll see about that.

0:01:16 > 0:01:19DOOR SLAMS OUTSIDE, KEYS JINGLE

0:01:48 > 0:01:49Give us it.

0:02:03 > 0:02:05HE THROWS IT ON THE FLOOR

0:02:12 > 0:02:14Right, you two, agents' visits.

0:02:14 > 0:02:16About bloody time!

0:02:23 > 0:02:28I have to tell you, Crown Counsel will be all over this.

0:02:28 > 0:02:30A lawyer was killed.

0:02:30 > 0:02:33In their minds, that's worse than killing a cop.

0:02:33 > 0:02:35The case is pretty slim.

0:02:35 > 0:02:38No confession, no DNA.

0:02:38 > 0:02:40What about the...

0:02:40 > 0:02:43What about the prints and the fibres they found in the cab?

0:02:43 > 0:02:48Circumstantial, but not conclusive, as far as the court's concerned.

0:02:48 > 0:02:50It's by no means a cakewalk,

0:02:50 > 0:02:53and we've still got one very major concern.

0:02:54 > 0:02:56Mullen puts you at the murder scene.

0:02:56 > 0:03:00Aye, an' in the taxi an' at the bridge.

0:03:00 > 0:03:03But he also did a deal to ensure he wasn't charged with you.

0:03:03 > 0:03:06His evidence may be described as tainted.

0:03:09 > 0:03:15He stands to gain by blaming you, hence the special defence.

0:03:15 > 0:03:17All we need is a reasonable doubt.

0:03:17 > 0:03:18Mm-hm.

0:03:21 > 0:03:22Hmm, maybe so.

0:03:25 > 0:03:28I don't like leaving things to chance.

0:04:24 > 0:04:25Jimmy!

0:04:27 > 0:04:29Have you had anythin' to eat?

0:04:30 > 0:04:33I'm fine. I'll, er... I'll get something later.

0:05:09 > 0:05:10All right, Billy?

0:05:15 > 0:05:16I'm gettin' out tomorrow.

0:05:18 > 0:05:20My brief put in for bail, and it's no' opposed.

0:05:22 > 0:05:24So, what did your brief say?

0:05:29 > 0:05:32If there's anything I can do when I'm out, Billy, just let me know.

0:05:54 > 0:05:55- BILLY:- 'You're a family man, Jimmy.

0:05:58 > 0:06:01'You grass me up and you wouldn't be the first I'd do.

0:06:03 > 0:06:05'I want you to remember just how that felt...

0:06:06 > 0:06:09'..with a gun at your head

0:06:09 > 0:06:12'and think about how it would feel for them.'

0:06:24 > 0:06:25That one's on me.

0:06:37 > 0:06:40DOOR OPENS AND CLOSES

0:06:43 > 0:06:45KNOCK ON DOOR

0:06:46 > 0:06:50- What are you after?- Same as you - Kennedy put away for life.

0:06:53 > 0:06:54How's Jimmy bearing up?

0:06:56 > 0:06:58He'll do what he has to.

0:06:58 > 0:07:00Well, I wouldn't like to be in his shoes right now,

0:07:00 > 0:07:04- especially if Kennedy walks. - Well, that's not on the cards.

0:07:05 > 0:07:08Trials are about how good a lawyer you've got

0:07:08 > 0:07:12and, I guarantee you, Kennedy'll have the best in the business.

0:07:13 > 0:07:15But this ain't over until it's over.

0:07:17 > 0:07:21Everybody knows Kennedy killed Malick.

0:07:21 > 0:07:24Aye, but knowing it and proving it?

0:07:25 > 0:07:29- Two different things. - Billy had the motive.

0:07:31 > 0:07:33But what if they say he was a disgruntled client,

0:07:33 > 0:07:36- jealous husband.- The man liked to play away a lot, I hear.

0:07:37 > 0:07:41With Jimmy's evidence, that's going to send Billy away.

0:07:44 > 0:07:46You're on the stand, too, remember.

0:07:46 > 0:07:51To say what? Billy's a bad man? Big deal. That's not evidence.

0:07:51 > 0:07:53But you knew him and Malick had a fall out.

0:07:53 > 0:07:56Over a dodgy business deal.

0:07:56 > 0:07:59Aye, I must remember and mention that(!)

0:08:00 > 0:08:03I intend to walk out the same court door that I walked in.

0:08:03 > 0:08:06Seems to me like you're hedging your bets.

0:08:06 > 0:08:07I like to call it being careful.

0:08:09 > 0:08:11Well, I call it looking after number one.

0:09:23 > 0:09:25Away to court, aye?

0:09:25 > 0:09:27I don't know what they expect me to say.

0:09:27 > 0:09:30HE SIGHS: Aye, well, I expect you to help me out.

0:09:30 > 0:09:32- Back up my story... - I wasn't there, Jimmy.

0:09:32 > 0:09:34Nobody knew I was there, until you made me tell them,

0:09:34 > 0:09:37and now Kennedy's saying I killed a man I never even met!

0:09:37 > 0:09:40Right, it's not ideal for either of us. Just take it easy, eh?

0:09:40 > 0:09:42- It'll be over in a couple of days. - Over for you, maybe.

0:09:42 > 0:09:44I'm telling you, Lenny.

0:09:44 > 0:09:47We both need to see him going down, so you better do your bit.

0:09:48 > 0:09:50I need to get going.

0:09:57 > 0:09:59- BILLY:- 'The name's Jimmy Mullen.

0:09:59 > 0:10:05'He's a taxi driver, a pokey wee dive called Amber Cabs.

0:10:08 > 0:10:10'I don't want him showing up in court.'

0:10:13 > 0:10:15OK, have a nice day.

0:10:15 > 0:10:17Cheery-bye.

0:10:19 > 0:10:21Oh, where is it you want to go?

0:10:21 > 0:10:23I'm not after a taxi. Is Jimmy about?

0:10:23 > 0:10:25Jimmy, which one?

0:10:25 > 0:10:30Jimmy Mullen? He's a mate of my dad's and I've just moved in, so I thought I'd look him up.

0:10:30 > 0:10:34Aw, you've just missed him, he's off takin' the weans to school, son.

0:10:34 > 0:10:36Never mind. I'll come back later.

0:10:39 > 0:10:42- You've not got his mobile number, have you?- Oh, mm-hm.

0:10:47 > 0:10:48Right, you two, in you go.

0:10:54 > 0:10:56Mind and put your seat belts on.

0:11:41 > 0:11:44Call the diet. Her Majesty's Advocate against William Kennedy.

0:12:26 > 0:12:29Ladies and gentlemen, the charge against the accused,

0:12:29 > 0:12:36William Kennedy, is that, on 11th of March, 2014,

0:12:36 > 0:12:41he, having previously evinced malice and ill-will towards Paul Malick,

0:12:41 > 0:12:46did, at The Tall Ship public house, Shieldinch, Glasgow,

0:12:46 > 0:12:52strike said Paul Malick on the head with a glass or similar instrument,

0:12:52 > 0:12:56compress his throat, so that he suffered injury and died,

0:12:56 > 0:12:57and that he did murder him.

0:13:02 > 0:13:03Mr Osbourne?

0:13:04 > 0:13:08As advised, m'lord, my client adheres to his not guilty plea

0:13:08 > 0:13:11- and a special defence has been lodged.- Very well.

0:13:12 > 0:13:14Clerk?

0:13:19 > 0:13:20Ladies and gentlemen.

0:13:20 > 0:13:24A special defence has been lodged on behalf of the accused,

0:13:24 > 0:13:27William Kennedy, and is in the following terms.

0:13:27 > 0:13:32The panel pleads not guilty, and further, specially,

0:13:32 > 0:13:38and without prejudice to said plea, that the crime, if committed,

0:13:38 > 0:13:42was committed not by the panel, but by James Mullen

0:13:42 > 0:13:46and it is intended to lead evidence in support of said fact.

0:13:58 > 0:14:00We heard, from scenes of crime,

0:14:00 > 0:14:04that the deceased was discovered near a railway bridge,

0:14:04 > 0:14:07- some ten miles or so from Shieldinch?- That's correct.

0:14:07 > 0:14:09It became obvious that the body had been moved

0:14:09 > 0:14:12from the murder scene to where it was found.

0:14:12 > 0:14:16- How was this done? - We believe by taxi.

0:14:16 > 0:14:18Investigations revealed that a car had been ordered

0:14:18 > 0:14:20for The Tall Ship public house.

0:14:20 > 0:14:23Were you able to trace the driver?

0:14:23 > 0:14:26We were. It was a Mr James Mullen.

0:14:26 > 0:14:28What, if anything, resulted?

0:14:28 > 0:14:31Mr Mullen was detained for questioning,

0:14:31 > 0:14:35- during which he advised that the accused...- Objection, hearsay.

0:14:35 > 0:14:37M'lord, my friend is well aware

0:14:37 > 0:14:40that we'll be hearing from Mr Mullen in due course.

0:14:40 > 0:14:42Over-ruled.

0:14:44 > 0:14:45You were saying?

0:14:47 > 0:14:50Mr Mullen advised us that the accused had killed Paul Malick

0:14:50 > 0:14:53and then forced him to help move the body in his cab.

0:15:03 > 0:15:04You told my learned friend

0:15:04 > 0:15:08the driver of this taxi we've heard about was a Mr James Mullen.

0:15:08 > 0:15:12The same man my client states committed this dreadful crime?

0:15:14 > 0:15:17- That's correct.- And who you arranged to receive immunity,

0:15:17 > 0:15:20on the condition he testified against the accused?

0:15:23 > 0:15:24Yes?

0:15:24 > 0:15:26Yes.

0:16:17 > 0:16:20On 10th of March, this year,

0:16:20 > 0:16:23HMRC officers raided the deceased's office,

0:16:23 > 0:16:28those of a Mr Leonard Murdoch and Mandy Kennedy's tanning salons.

0:16:28 > 0:16:29Is that correct?

0:16:29 > 0:16:30Yes.

0:16:31 > 0:16:34These officers were sent to the deceased's premises

0:16:34 > 0:16:37in conjunction with your investigations?

0:16:37 > 0:16:39- Yes?- That's right.

0:16:40 > 0:16:43You suspected some link of a criminal nature

0:16:43 > 0:16:46may have existed between them, is that right?

0:16:46 > 0:16:48Yes.

0:16:48 > 0:16:49And we've heard that, the next day,

0:16:49 > 0:16:53the deceased's body was taken in one of Murdoch's taxis,

0:16:53 > 0:16:55by this man Mullen, and dumped on the railway.

0:17:00 > 0:17:04You were demoted for attempting to intimidate the deceased into

0:17:04 > 0:17:07disclosing matters that may well have put his life at serious risk!

0:17:07 > 0:17:08- Objection.- Overruled.

0:17:10 > 0:17:12Indeed, were it not for your misconduct,

0:17:12 > 0:17:14Mr Malick may well be alive today!

0:17:14 > 0:17:16- Objection.- Sustained!

0:17:17 > 0:17:19No further questions for this witness.

0:17:27 > 0:17:30No re-examination.

0:17:30 > 0:17:32The Crown call Fiona Malick.

0:17:43 > 0:17:48I understand, Mrs Malick, that the accused, William Kennedy,

0:17:48 > 0:17:51was a client of your late husband.

0:17:51 > 0:17:54Yes, but Paul never discussed his business with me.

0:17:56 > 0:18:00I realise this is a distressing time,

0:18:00 > 0:18:04but did your husband ever indulge in any...

0:18:04 > 0:18:08extra-marital activities to your knowledge?

0:18:08 > 0:18:10You mean affairs? Yes.

0:18:10 > 0:18:13When he wasn't at home,

0:18:13 > 0:18:18I was never sure if he was working or...elsewhere.

0:18:19 > 0:18:25Did he mention a Mandy Kennedy? Wife of the accused?

0:18:27 > 0:18:30No, but he did receive calls from a woman of that name.

0:18:30 > 0:18:32Did she ring the house?

0:18:33 > 0:18:34None of them rang the house.

0:18:36 > 0:18:39I heard him talk to her on his mobile.

0:18:39 > 0:18:42- And who did you take her to be? - Objection. Calls for an opinion.

0:18:42 > 0:18:44Sustained.

0:18:48 > 0:18:50Did you know who she was?

0:18:52 > 0:18:55I had no doubt she was yet another of his women.

0:18:56 > 0:19:00And that he was having an affair with the accused's wife?

0:19:06 > 0:19:09Shortly before your husband's body was discovered,

0:19:09 > 0:19:12you had a visitor at your home, is that correct?

0:19:12 > 0:19:16A man named Murdoch. He claimed to be a colleague of Paul's.

0:19:16 > 0:19:18Did he say why he was there?

0:19:18 > 0:19:23He said he wanted a wee chat, but Paul wasn't answering his phone.

0:19:23 > 0:19:26He gave you the impression your husband was avoiding his calls?

0:19:26 > 0:19:28Yes.

0:19:28 > 0:19:32So, he appeared quite keen to have this wee chat with your husband?

0:19:32 > 0:19:35Very. He started going through his desk.

0:19:35 > 0:19:38In an attempt to discover his exact whereabouts at that time?

0:19:38 > 0:19:40Leading.

0:19:43 > 0:19:44Withdrawn.

0:19:46 > 0:19:49Did he warn you your husband may be in danger from someone,

0:19:49 > 0:19:52or assist you in any way whatsoever?

0:19:52 > 0:19:54- No.- And I think you threatened

0:19:54 > 0:19:57- to call the police if he didn't leave.- That's right.

0:19:57 > 0:19:59And after the visit of this man, Murdoch,

0:19:59 > 0:20:01who so desperately wanted to find him,

0:20:01 > 0:20:04your husband's dead and mutilated body was discovered.

0:20:09 > 0:20:10I'm obliged, Mrs Malick.

0:20:12 > 0:20:13No further questions.

0:20:43 > 0:20:49On the 11th of March this year, did you speak to James Mullen?

0:20:49 > 0:20:51Yes.

0:20:51 > 0:20:53And how did he appear? What was his mood?

0:20:55 > 0:20:57He seemed a bit worried.

0:20:57 > 0:20:59Did he tell you what he was concerned about?

0:20:59 > 0:21:01Objection, hearsay.

0:21:01 > 0:21:02Sustained.

0:21:05 > 0:21:08Do you know if there was any bad blood

0:21:08 > 0:21:10between the deceased and the accused?

0:21:10 > 0:21:11Objection!

0:21:11 > 0:21:12SHE SIGHS

0:21:12 > 0:21:16The indictment states the accused evinced malice.

0:21:16 > 0:21:18Rephrase the question.

0:21:21 > 0:21:25Was the deceased having an affair with Mandy Kennedy?

0:21:27 > 0:21:29Billy spent a lot of time away.

0:21:29 > 0:21:31You know, people get lonely.

0:21:34 > 0:21:39Mr Murdoch, do you know who killed Paul Malick?

0:21:40 > 0:21:42Well, that depends what you mean.

0:21:48 > 0:21:50I know who I think done it.

0:21:51 > 0:21:54But then, the dogs in the street know that.

0:22:09 > 0:22:13SCARLETT: Right, thank you, doll. See you later on.

0:22:14 > 0:22:17- This one, ta.- Er, that's £3, please.

0:22:18 > 0:22:21Thank you. CASH REGISTER WHIRRS

0:22:23 > 0:22:25- £2 change.- Thank you.

0:22:27 > 0:22:30It's like a big letter box, except you're the postie.

0:22:30 > 0:22:32You give this to your da and he'll get a big surprise.

0:22:32 > 0:22:35Tell him it's from a friend of his.

0:22:35 > 0:22:37I'll call him later, OK?

0:22:37 > 0:22:39Good girl. Bye just now.

0:22:43 > 0:22:46My client had been in your flat on various occasions

0:22:46 > 0:22:49and has also used your taxi firm. Correct?

0:22:51 > 0:22:52Yes.

0:22:52 > 0:22:57So, his fingerprints could easily be found in your flat or cabs?

0:22:59 > 0:23:00Yeah, I suppose.

0:23:00 > 0:23:03I understand you and the deceased had a...

0:23:03 > 0:23:06heated exchange in his office, the day he died?

0:23:06 > 0:23:11- We had a few words, but...- And did these words continue in your flat

0:23:11 > 0:23:15the same evening when, it is alleged, Mr Malick was murdered?

0:23:15 > 0:23:18- What are you trying to infer?- Where were you that night?- Objection!

0:23:18 > 0:23:20This witness has not been incriminated.

0:23:20 > 0:23:24I am merely trying to establish his whereabouts at the relevant time.

0:23:24 > 0:23:28I will allow it, but caw canny, Mr Osbourne.

0:23:30 > 0:23:32Well? Where were you?

0:23:34 > 0:23:36I was taking delivery of some tyres.

0:23:37 > 0:23:40- Can anyone vouch for that? - Only the driver.

0:23:43 > 0:23:46I don't know his whereabouts.

0:23:46 > 0:23:48So, you had an argument with a man

0:23:48 > 0:23:51who, soon after, winds up dead in your taxi,

0:23:51 > 0:23:54driven by your employee, and you can't prove where you were?

0:23:54 > 0:23:57Mr Murdoch, isn't on trial here!

0:23:57 > 0:23:58More's the pity.

0:24:00 > 0:24:01No further questions.

0:24:16 > 0:24:18Right, that's me.

0:24:18 > 0:24:20- You all right?- Aye, fine.

0:24:22 > 0:24:26- Wonder how it's goin' in the court? - What time do you finish?

0:24:26 > 0:24:29Half an hour. Thanks for goin' to get the weans.

0:24:29 > 0:24:31- You don't mind?- No.

0:24:31 > 0:24:34- Sure you're OK?- Stop worrying.

0:25:10 > 0:25:15I'm sorry I'm late. Right, troops, who fancies a trip in my taxi?

0:25:15 > 0:25:19- Me!- Can we go for ice cream? - Of course we can, princess.

0:25:19 > 0:25:22- Daddy.- Oh!

0:25:22 > 0:25:25- Did you make this at school? - No, it's from your friend.

0:25:34 > 0:25:37- Who gave you this?- A man.

0:31:40 > 0:31:44Well, he was sort of, um...

0:31:49 > 0:31:50Well, that's narrowed it down(!)

0:31:50 > 0:31:54Well, I didn't notice that much. I was too busy answering the phones.

0:31:54 > 0:31:58- There must have been something? - No' really.

0:31:58 > 0:32:00Let me think, em...

0:32:00 > 0:32:05Em, he'd blue jeans on and a black and grey jacket.

0:33:13 > 0:33:14Not after what happened.

0:33:16 > 0:33:18The polis said something about protection.

0:33:18 > 0:33:24No. Put us out to some scheme with a mobile phone and a panic button?

0:33:26 > 0:33:29And what if I show up and Kennedy gets off, anyway?

0:33:32 > 0:33:34Well, at least you won't be in prison.

0:33:34 > 0:33:37It would be waitin' for him to turn up on the doorstep.

0:33:39 > 0:33:43No. I'd rather do the time, make sure yous are safe.

0:33:43 > 0:33:45Well, what if we're not?

0:33:45 > 0:33:47Well, you cannae protect us from inside the jail.

0:33:49 > 0:33:52And what about wee Madonna, growin' up without her daddy?

0:33:52 > 0:33:55What about the rest of us? You could be away for years, Jimmy.

0:34:01 > 0:34:04I'm damned if I do and I'm damned if I don't!

0:42:00 > 0:42:03I think you've made enough phone calls, don't you?

0:42:08 > 0:42:12You were interviewed by the police in connection with this matter,

0:42:12 > 0:42:16and asked about your movements that night, is that correct?

0:42:16 > 0:42:17That's right.

0:42:17 > 0:42:23And when interviewed by Detective Sergeant Grant, you said...

0:42:23 > 0:42:28"My cab was stolen. I was stuck out in Moss Green, no phone, nothing."

0:42:29 > 0:42:30Was that true?

0:42:32 > 0:42:36- No, but...- So, you lied to the officers investigating this case?

0:42:38 > 0:42:39Well?

0:42:40 > 0:42:44- Yes, but...- And stuck to your story for some considerable time, correct?

0:43:10 > 0:43:13These threats you told us about.

0:43:14 > 0:43:16Did you report them to the police?

0:43:17 > 0:43:19I was too scared.

0:43:19 > 0:43:21Yet, after you were detained,

0:43:21 > 0:43:24you provided them with a detailed statement blaming my client.

0:43:26 > 0:43:32Hardly the act of a frightened man. Rather of one covering for himself.

0:43:36 > 0:43:40The fact is, you'd nothing to fear from the accused

0:43:40 > 0:43:43as neither you nor your family were threatened by him.

0:43:43 > 0:43:45That's not true.

0:43:48 > 0:43:50He did it again yesterday.

0:43:50 > 0:43:53How could he? He's in custody.

0:43:53 > 0:43:54Well, he didn't do it personally.

0:43:56 > 0:43:57Then, who did?

0:44:01 > 0:44:02I don't know!

0:44:04 > 0:44:07You don't know, because it's just another one of your lies, isn't it?

0:44:24 > 0:44:27You any idea how much trouble you're in?

0:44:27 > 0:44:31- We're talking, what, ten, 12 years? - If he's lucky.

0:44:31 > 0:44:34Did I mention Mrs Mullen and her mother can both ID you?

0:44:36 > 0:44:40- Perverting the course of justice. - Threatening a witness.

0:44:40 > 0:44:43Telling him you would interfere with his kids and then kill them?

0:44:43 > 0:44:46And turning up at the school gates?

0:45:29 > 0:45:33The truth is, acting on Murdoch's instructions,

0:45:33 > 0:45:35you murdered Paul Malick, dumped his body

0:48:01 > 0:48:02On the contrary, m'lord.

0:48:02 > 0:48:06It arises directly from my friend's cross-examination.

0:48:06 > 0:48:08Very well.

0:48:15 > 0:48:16Mr Mullen?

0:48:22 > 0:48:27A man approached my young daughter and gave her a sympathy card...

0:48:29 > 0:48:31..to pass on to me.

0:48:33 > 0:48:35And what did this card say?

0:48:39 > 0:48:41"It's a shame when they go so young."

0:48:43 > 0:48:47- What did you take this to mean? - Objection. Calls for an opinion.

0:48:47 > 0:48:51I should have thought it was patently obvious, Mr Osbourne.

0:48:51 > 0:48:52Overruled.

0:48:54 > 0:48:57So what did you take this to mean?

0:48:57 > 0:49:01That it referred to my daughter and my grandson.

0:49:01 > 0:49:05How so? For my learned friend's benefit?

0:49:09 > 0:49:11Well, later, a man phoned me,

0:49:11 > 0:49:15and said that, if I took the witness box...

0:49:16 > 0:49:19..he would put the kids in a wooden one.

0:49:51 > 0:49:53Mr Osbourne?

0:49:54 > 0:49:56The defence leads no evidence.

0:50:03 > 0:50:06Then we'll proceed directly to the speeches.

0:50:27 > 0:50:31Yet, despite these dire threats,

0:50:35 > 0:50:38to ensure that justice is done,

0:50:38 > 0:50:42and the murder of Paul Malick does not go unpunished.

0:50:47 > 0:50:52Accordingly, I would ask you to return a verdict of guilty

0:50:52 > 0:50:54to the charge against the accused.

0:51:03 > 0:51:09The Crown ask you to take the word of a self-confessed liar,

0:51:09 > 0:51:11a man who lied to the police months ago

0:51:11 > 0:51:14and continued to lie to you in this very courtroom.

0:51:21 > 0:51:25Accordingly, I have no hesitation in asking you to acquit my client.

0:51:29 > 0:51:30CLERK: Court.

0:51:43 > 0:51:44You all right?

0:51:45 > 0:51:47Aye, aye, just wanted a bit of fresh air.

0:51:49 > 0:51:50What do you think?

0:51:52 > 0:51:53Who knows?

0:51:53 > 0:51:56Well, you've done everythin' you could, pal.

0:51:57 > 0:51:59Aye, well...

0:51:59 > 0:52:01It's up to the jury now, eh?

0:52:03 > 0:52:06If anyone ever deserved to go down...

0:52:06 > 0:52:07it's him.

0:52:09 > 0:52:13What if the jury think I killed Malick, or have a reasonable doubt?

0:52:14 > 0:52:16He could walk away, scot-free.

0:52:16 > 0:52:18What, after everything he's done?

0:52:19 > 0:52:22He can't. Surely. They won't.

0:52:22 > 0:52:24He could!

0:52:30 > 0:52:31And then what?

0:53:00 > 0:53:02How long's it been now?

0:53:02 > 0:53:06It's, er, just over two hours since they broke for lunch.

0:53:08 > 0:53:09Feels like for ever.

0:53:09 > 0:53:13It takes a while for them to get settled and select a foreman.

0:53:13 > 0:53:16That's before they even begin their considerations, so.

0:53:16 > 0:53:19How long's that going to take?

0:53:19 > 0:53:22Your husband did his best. We all did.

0:53:22 > 0:53:24Aye. Apart from Murdoch.

0:53:26 > 0:53:30Yeah, well, he made up for that by bringing us Bradley.

0:53:33 > 0:53:35I just assumed that you'd caught him?

0:53:35 > 0:53:38No, he arrived at the station and handed him over.

0:53:38 > 0:53:40Sir, the jury's back.

0:53:49 > 0:53:51Clerk.

0:53:52 > 0:53:53M'lord.

0:53:54 > 0:53:58Members of the jury, will your spokesperson please stand?

0:54:05 > 0:54:07Have you reached a verdict?

0:54:07 > 0:54:08We have.

0:54:11 > 0:54:15What is your verdict in respect of the accused, William Kennedy,

0:54:15 > 0:54:17on the charge on the indictment?

0:54:28 > 0:54:30Guilty.

0:54:30 > 0:54:34Is that unanimous, or by a majority?

0:54:34 > 0:54:36- Unanimous.- Thank you.

0:54:39 > 0:54:41William Kennedy...

0:54:43 > 0:54:48..you have been convicted of a brutal crime,

0:54:48 > 0:54:50which you attempted to conceal

0:54:50 > 0:54:53whatever the cost to others.

0:54:53 > 0:54:57And, as a result, there is only one option open to the court.

0:54:59 > 0:55:02You will go to prison for life

0:55:02 > 0:55:08and is my recommendation that you serve a minimum of 20 years

0:55:08 > 0:55:10before you are considered for parole.

0:55:12 > 0:55:13Take him down.

0:55:37 > 0:55:38Well, he got what he wanted.

0:55:40 > 0:55:42DOOR OPENS, FOOTSTEPS APPROACH

0:55:46 > 0:55:48Oh...

0:55:48 > 0:55:51- Jimmy. Welcome home. HE LAUGHS:- Thanks.

0:56:16 > 0:56:17Welcome hame, Jimmy.

0:57:03 > 0:57:04CELL DOOR SLAMS

0:57:09 > 0:57:12They've found high levels of chromium in the plot.

0:57:12 > 0:57:16- What does chromium do? - It's toxic, it's very bad news.

0:57:16 > 0:57:21Even if people think that site is dangerous, they won't buy the flats.

0:57:21 > 0:57:24It would jeopardise the whole Lowtherhill development.

0:57:24 > 0:57:26Twice the amount, into the same account, and you'll have

0:57:26 > 0:57:29- the clean report tomorrow morning. - You've got a brass neck, Eric.

0:57:29 > 0:57:31You've got chromium.

0:57:31 > 0:57:33You're asking me to build on toxic ground!

0:57:33 > 0:57:36- I live here.- It's not toxic.- It is!

0:57:36 > 0:57:41I'm not a builder. I don't know about ground reports or anything like that.

0:57:41 > 0:57:42It stinks. It's a cover-up.

0:57:42 > 0:57:45It's a case of bend or snap, Alan.

0:57:45 > 0:57:48This development will go ahead, with or without you.

0:57:48 > 0:57:50Work with me. I can see a future here.
