there's a federal statute known as Rico racketeering influence and corrupt organizations act and that is our strongest tool against organized crime I keep my nose clean I throw my taxes on time I don't interfere with any other guy's business and in the bar I use every night what do you want him to do just go in front of a grand jury and give exactly the same testimony he gave to the police and it couldn't have been joeo who get shot right no on nobody we're talking dangerous people here we guar

money Mr R you might just have to take a meatloaf of banana cream pie why are you doing this to me morning Mr rudnik you advised your client of the consequences of refusing to testify to the Federal grand jury especially after my formal offer that he joined the witness protection and relocation program I'm right here Mr Falcon as we speak my son is wearing a couple of pounds of plaster now there is nothing you can do to me as bad as the other guys can do so why do you want to put me in jail Mr r

e who couldn't make three times more money in the private sector me I can't even go into a restaurant or a or a movie house or a men's room without having it checked out first and it's been that way for two godamn long now because too many people haven't got the guts to stand up and open their stupid mouths your words Mr Paxton I spend every day of my life in a state of Siege and I do it by choice well Mr Falcon I got a choice too I could go right into that grand jury room and I could lie I coul
d say no I saw somebody else my client is presenting a hypothetical case but I'm not going to do that Mr Falcon hey let's go on I am not asking for the right to lie just to keep my mouth shut or is putting a bullet in my brain like your friend Luca the price of being a good citizen too come on let's get a drink of water now they won't allow me in there so I'm going to be sitting here with my dick hanging over the end of it if you have a question remember your right to excuse yourself come talk t

u to go the extra mile the way the Falcon's pushing is not enough to keep your mouth shut now you got to positively identify Mr oror as the wrong guy now we recognize you're going to get some heat over this so we're fixing some get right money some get right money usually that's what you pay to us but because we know we gave you some trouble Mr Paxton we want to get right with you I'm not going to understand for or against Mr Roar all right you live in a community nobody's alone here I think som
eone like you could last a week here now we've been taking care of you trying to get right with you look man I just want to be left alone all right it's a terrifying thing Mr Paxton be left alone especially a place like this all right let's talk about Costello for a few minutes and then you guys got to get out of here and let me get ready to make this damn speech tomorrow Costello has this big meeting with the m now he's wearing a wire of course so if it goes the way it should we'll have a coupl
e of Westside Rovers on a RICO charger too conspiracy for the purposes of laundering Dirty Money acting as a bagman for corrupt public officials whatever we got him next we put the squeeze on these guys if they don't come across we hit them on the conspiracy charges whatever Paxton decides to do H it's clean it's simple I like it okay but wait a minute what makes you think Mr is going to want to do business I mean excuse me uh can we just have a minute please thanks robers have had a very good y
ear they need someone with a cash flow business they trust Costello if we're lucky they could start passing the money tomorrow Castello is definitely going to wear a wire no problem so miss aerin says allow me thank you I'll tell you something this nasty little incident with the pack and kid I think it was a break for us I chook things up especially costell I think we got lucky there Danny's out of the hospital now in case I missed anybody asking me how he was we had an idea of how to save on th
e electric so we um disconnected the big refrigerator genie please I can't be thinking about accounts right now right especially when Breezy is uh likely trying to put me out of business by stuff and everything with the caviar and truffles look at this figure what is that it came in the mail this morning no return address Sam this is the medical to dat somebody put the word out we're only doing half the business it's starting to hard maybe I should give it to the homeless or something yeah eithe
r that or shove it back in the nearest mailbox how much longer I don't know are you going to finish that I thought you were on a diet I was thanks you talk to the DA no I was working all night how could I besides I'm afraid of leaks all right looks good I'm happy huh you're happy I'm happy what's this it's Paxton's release form if he sign it by 700 he's out by noon no no no no no no no no no Paxton stays where he is you sure this isn't getting a little personal between you and him it's been 4 mo
nths you think this is personal I think we don't need him anymore I think we can let him off the hook I think you're tired you're missing at Le well we've all been working too hard under a lot of pressure but this case could still go either way we looked out with Castello you said it hey we've got three truckloads of evidence hard physical evidence connecting Mah and oor and the Westside Rovers to extortion and conspiracy sitting here it all makes a very clear picture in that courtroom all the j
ury sees is a bunch of unconnected dots but Paxton gets on the stand and he looks laughing boy right in the eye and he says I saw you kill a man in a bar all those dots fall right into place the lock that's right the luck that's what it's all about Liz now if you can't handle it maybe you can find something interesting to work on over in consumer affairs or down the hallway in the parks department is there some reason why you don't want to try this case you afraid of losing is that it come on Li
z you're just going to have to trust me on this one bury it for a while okay you're afraid we're losing will do to your political career oh come on Jimmy they always find airpl for that son's a [ __ ] speech I am not running for political office but she will I sleep with you oo I know you come on are you afraid of going one-on-one with a work what is it with this guy patience L okay patience the case is not ready for trial forensic wire Taps patterns of evidence give it to the jury let them deci
de hey that's my my license to practice right there on the wall my name is on the door and this is my case I decide when this case goes to a jury now why don't you focus your attention on Costello your case the case I trusted you with I know my work don't talk to me about my work I just want to know why you're keeping Sam Paxton out there twisting in the wind I have my reasons okay he's material I need him there and understand something else if Costello loses his nerve tomorrow you will squeeze
Costello he's going to wear that wire he's going to do what he has to do and if he starts to shake you'll be the one to put his nuts in a vice you don't have to tell me what I'm going to do to Costello I know what I'm going to do to Costello because I've done it before and I'll do it again and I'm good at it and it stinks government is force force it's not reason it's not laws it is force George Washington said that and the only justification that public officials can have in using Force against
ordinary citizens like Paxton and Costello is that our job is to protect and to serve which is what I'm trying to do here to protect and to serve and whether you believe it or not that's all I really care about doing which is what you're doing too and which you're good at because you care and you believe you're also a hungry lawyer which is why you're in this office and which is why I gave you Costello so get out there and protect and serve keep charging kid we're only halfway up that hill and
we get there and somebody's dead Castello or somebody else the kid is not dead for Christ's sake that's not the point what if he was what if Sam Paxton's child were dead and you could have gone to trial without the squeeze could you live with that yes could you so you'll know you'll be under complete gun cover at all times with full AUD visual contact and if at any point there seems to be some danger to yourself we will abort the entire operation okay you all right yeah what's he doing I miss he
was told to bring him hey this is paperwork not breaking fies maybe they want him reminded he steps out of line let's go all right keep your fingers crossed all right you'll cut this off a nice slice of piger St around with us big TR wait a minute what the hell is she doing you want me to aboard no wait a minute for God's sake some kind of a rent a cup you start looking for a bigger slice than agree me and my friends have knives too they got a rep for using them okay give them the paperwork wil
l you sweat my balls off here no it's too risky abort tell him to abort all right all hands abort abort take up federal agent hold you fire agent down aent down come in careful oh God get an ambulance now cut m e do you want me to wait for you no ST back at the office really sorry Jim you okay who's going to prosecute oh am it's been a long time since I've been in court too long but it's my turf she used to say that I could use your help you got it F fight the government will prove the existence
of an ongoing organized Criminal criminal conspiracy a pattern of criminal activity which amounts to far more than the sum of the individual crimes committed and all the more dangerous through being part of a web of corruption and violence in this city because when the mob bosses saw a part of the produce business or the meat business the fish flour business that they wanted wholesale or retail they didn't go to a bank they went to the Westside Rovers the mob wanted to buy your business out the
y they didn't show up in your office with an accountant they brought someone like Kevin oor Mr Mar some of your friends include officials in public health departments in every burrow of the city dinner with Mr D Santos currently awaiting sentencing on extortion charges of his own dinner with two councilmen whose responsibilities include the assignment of food contracts and here's a picture of you dining with the owner of a trucking company who had to go out of business when his garage was firebo
