00:01CEO of DB Health has been shot dead.
00:04Matteo Leone has been identified as a shooter.
00:07This is for you, Amelia.
00:10My nine-year-old sister.
00:13Your insurance is not her claim.
00:15She was fine.
00:17No, Amelia!
00:19I want you to do the right thing.
00:20That's business.
00:22You will never deny anyone again.
00:25Search the area.
00:26I didn't know that there are almost 200,000 health insurance-related deaths per year.
00:32Matteo Leone.
00:34Go ahead and arrest me.
00:35The people are about to wake up.
00:37Who has the right to choose?
00:39Adjust things now or pay your bills?
00:41The United States versus Matteo Leone, also known as the adjuster.
00:45He's a murderer.
00:46You think you're a hero?
00:48You're a terrorist.
00:49For the second charge, first-degree murder, we, the jury, find Matteo Leone...
00:56Do you know what it's like to watch someone you love endure constant senseless pain?
01:13Of course you don't.
01:15You're incapable of empathy.
01:18I tried to do it the right way.
01:24But you made it impossible.
01:27And now I understand suffering.
01:32All I feel is rage in my chest.
01:37I live with a hole in my heart.
01:46And soon you will too.
01:51This is for you, sis.
01:54This is for all of us.
01:56This is for all of us.
01:59Her chemotherapy is supposed to start today.
02:01Please, please, just check one more time.
02:03You should calm down.
02:04I will check one more time for you, okay?
02:06Okay.
02:07Your insurance did not her claim.
02:08The treatment is canceled.
02:13Canceled?
02:14What?
02:17So you're telling me there's nothing we can do?
02:19You want to continue treatment?
02:21Then pay out of pocket.
02:31You will die.
02:33I've done all that I can.
02:35Still got a problem?
02:36You can appeal or take it up with the CEO of your insurance company.
02:51I have to appeal.
02:53Or Amelia's gonna die.
02:59Dale, I don't feel...
03:01What?
03:06I still believe someone up there might listen.
03:21They denied the appeal?
03:31No.
03:32No, I don't want to die.
03:33I don't want to die.
03:34I have a tail.
03:35It's okay, Amelia.
03:36You're okay.
03:37You're okay.
03:38You're gonna be okay.
03:39Someone help.
03:40Someone help.
03:41Doctor, hello?
03:43Please.
03:44She's all I have left.
03:45Please, someone save her.
03:52Your sister's leukemia has spread.
03:54And I gave her an emergency stem cell transplant.
03:56But without continuing the treatment,
03:58she has no chance.
04:21I'm done.
04:22I'm down with these money-hungered assholes.
04:28Gonna cover my sister's treatment or I'll...
04:31Insurance troubles?
04:35TB Health is killing my little sister.
04:38She's on nine.
04:39Evil snakes.
04:41My husband's gone because they denied every last claim.
04:45It would have been his sixth and third birthday today.
04:48They were his favorite.
04:51Now I can't have one in his honor because TB Health wouldn't cover my tremor medications anymore.
05:02Thank you, young man.
05:04Sorry about your sister.
05:07I'm sorry about your husband.
05:12Those greedy bastards don't care if any of us live or die as long as their pockets are lined.
05:17Don't let them get you down.
05:19We've got to fight back.
05:31If I could just meet him face to face.
05:34If I could just tell him...
05:36Check your hands there.
05:37I'm gonna show you right now.
05:38Alright, you know the drill.
05:40Bound your horses, boys.
05:41I'll take a hundred K and the crib keeper's wife over there.
05:45She won't last a week.
05:47I'm gonna get two hundred thousand on the cancer, kid.
05:50These little coffins are so cute.
05:54Don't you talk about my sister?
05:57Don't you talk about my sister?
05:59You asshole.
06:00You go apologize to her right now.
06:02Make me.
06:04What do you want, dipshit?
06:05Mr. Thornwald, you're coming to deny my sister's leukemia treatment.
06:07I want you to do the right thing.
06:09Save her life!
06:10You come near me again, you're gonna be very sorry.
06:13It's you who will be sorry.
06:14If you won't hear me out, I'll make you.
06:37Hey.
06:51Who are you?
06:53Stop! Get back here!
06:55Security! Catch him!
07:07The fuck is this?
07:12You underestimated me.
07:14You underestimated me.
07:17I'm sorry, who are you?
07:19The guy who sits there you're slowly killing!
07:22He's only nine years old!
07:24She has her whole life ahead of her!
07:27You want a bottle cry, baby?
07:29You think I give a fuck about some snotty kid's wasted potential?
07:33He was denied, so what?
07:35That's business.
07:37It's not my fault you're too broke to save your sister's life.
07:40You heartless son of a...
07:42Jake!
07:44When the world finds out what you've done to children,
07:47how many people your business has killed!
07:49Phil, what?
07:51Nobody's gonna listen to you.
07:56You're not even a pimple on my ass.
07:58You shouldn't have done that!
07:59You shouldn't have done that!
08:00You shouldn't have done that!
08:03You shouldn't have done that!
08:04You shouldn't have done that!
08:05You shouldn't have done that!
08:08You shouldn't have done that!
08:09You shouldn't have done that!
08:11You shouldn't have done that.
08:24Gallons of blood on your hands, but soon yours will be on mine.
08:28Don't give up, Amelia. Keep fighting. I'll find another way.
08:41No. Keep this.
08:49So, Mom and Daddy, you love them.
08:55No. No, Amelia. No! Amelia!
09:01Doctors! Doctors!
09:04Amelia!
09:11I hate how quiet it is without you.
09:14You were just a kid.
09:16You had a whole life unlived.
09:19A future.
09:21But they took it from you.
09:24They denied you.
09:41Almost enough to pay for the treatment that would have saved your life.
09:46A sick joke.
09:50How naive to trust the system.
09:53To believe that a rich health insurance CEO would actually care about people.
10:00It's unjust.
10:01I'm done being a pawn.
10:13You think you're untouchable.
10:16You hide behind your billions while the rest of us fight for scraps.
10:20But all that's gonna change.
10:27Because you're not a god.
10:30When my bullet hits you,
10:33you'll bleed.
10:50She'll never get to see this amazing place.
11:06You took everything away from her and she's not the only one.
11:24You'll pay for it all.
11:26You have a reservation?
11:33Mario Vanchotti.
11:35Why so serious?
11:37Batman.
11:40If only she knew.
11:44So, Mario.
11:49Are you here for business or...
11:54Pleasure.
11:56...
12:03Off to work.
12:04Off to school.
12:06Just an ordinary day.
12:13We should be celebrating.
12:21But you're gone.
12:23And now everything is about to change.
12:25And now everything is about to change.
12:27The silly movie is about to change.
12:28Oh, for the...
12:29I think I was very young.
12:30I think I was very young.
12:31They just left.
12:33I'm scared.
12:35Oh, I'm scared.
12:40I'm scared.
12:41Remember me, Mr. Thornwald?
12:53Get out of my way, scum.
13:00You'll never deny anyone else ever again.
13:11Now run!
13:37I thought I'd regret it.
13:41But this feels like justice.
13:51Now time for phase two.
14:04Chief, it's over here.
14:06Let's go.
14:11Who would murder the CEO of DV Health?
14:16What happened here, Chief?
14:19Randall Thornwald was murdered in cold blood.
14:23Hey, Chief.
14:24Check this out.
14:26And there's two more.
14:28Defend and oppose?
14:30You don't think it's some whack job vigilante?
14:32You don't think it's just a man.
14:33I don't think it's just a man.
14:34I don't think it's a man I'm sorry.
14:35I don't think it's an accident.
14:36A man now identified as 54-year-old Randall Thornell, CEO of DV Health has been shot dead using
14:44bullets labeled deny, defend, and depose.
14:47Police are speculating that the assailant might be a vigilante.
14:53Whoever did this, enjoy your freedom.
14:56Because we will hunt you down.
14:59And when I catch you, you'll never see the light of day again.
15:03I need to walk free long enough to make sure my message is heard loud and clear.
15:07I did this so others won't die like my sister did.
15:21But what would she think of me now?
15:31I have to go back.
15:37Yes, Mr. Mayor, I know Randall Thornwald was a close personal friend.
15:42He was a goddamn visionary.
15:44And we're doing everything we can to catch him.
15:47Find the psychopath that murdered him or you'll never work again.
15:50Sir, we'll squash this cocky fucker faster than you can...
15:53I'll call you back, Mr. Mayor.
15:58CCTV caught the perp biking into Central Park.
16:01Hit it.
16:07I shouldn't have come back.
16:09But I can't let this go.
16:11Over there.
16:18They're faster than I thought.
16:21Search the area.
16:22I have an email.
16:31Where could it...
16:37Could this be a clue?
16:51Lieutenant.
16:54I knew there would be sacrifices.
16:57I have to get out of here.
17:02This will keep him busy.
17:03Let's see how long it takes for them to fix that.
17:08Y'all already know my struggle.
17:09So when I heard Danai defend a...
17:11Harn the bullets?
17:12Like, and the knifing is wrong, but I am on the edge.
17:16DB health is corrupt.
17:18And karma is a bitch, hunty.
17:20So I'm rooting for Mateo.
17:25Excuse me, officer.
17:27I just found this.
17:29Yeah, I was over there.
17:32You contaminated evidence, you idiot.
17:34Not bad.
17:35Hey, chief.
17:37We found the backpack.
17:39Get the fuck out of here.
17:42Give me that.
17:44Okay.
17:46Okay.
17:48Okay.
17:50Okay.
17:52Okay.
17:53Okay.
17:54Okay.
17:56Okay.
17:57Okay.
18:07There's a note.
18:11How much paper for a life?
18:14And you keep raising the price.
18:16Who gave them the right to choose?
18:19Time to adjust and pay their dues.
18:24Take this to forensics.
18:25Got it.
18:27The plot is thickening.
18:28And I think our vigilante has just earned his nickname.
18:32The Adjuster.
18:33Let me know what you think in the comments below.
18:42I won't be made a fool of.
18:43I'm not going to be made a fool of.
18:44I'm not going to be made a fool of.
18:49I'm not going to be made a fool of.
18:50Have you seen this man?
19:12Tell us what you know, dickwad.
19:17Look, I don't see nothing.
19:18My insurance wouldn't cover new glasses, so we throw out these glasses.
19:22Everything's a big blur.
19:24Then get out of my face.
19:27This adjuster will pay with his life.
19:38People are rooting for this guy.
19:40It just shows how sick our society is.
19:42Okay, but the adjuster can get it done.
19:44But he's too hot to convict.
19:48It's some loser who wanted to be famous.
19:51All of this is pointless if they don't understand why I did it.
19:54But they will soon.
19:57Claim to seem humane!
19:59Denying claim to seem humane!
20:01Denying claim to seem humane!
20:03Who can have the right to choose?
20:05A justice now or pay or due?
20:08Who can have the right to choose?
20:09A justice now or pay or due?
20:12Who can have the right to choose?
20:13A justice now or pay or due?
20:14This is what I wanted.
20:16The people rising up.
20:18Shouting back at the system that tried to silence them.
20:20Who gave them the right to choose?
20:22A justice now or pay?
20:23Denying claim to seem humane!
20:25Denying claim to seem humane!
20:27Denying claim to seem humane!
20:28You should be ashamed of yourself.
20:31Harassing people at your age?
20:33I'm proud to fight for what's right.
20:35For what we all deserve.
20:36You're defending a murderer!
20:39What the heck?
20:41Who or what?
20:42Look at you, shaking like a leaf.
20:44You're nothing but a weak old...
20:45Don't lay a hand on her.
20:47How dare you touch me?
20:49Who's touching my wife?
20:52You better apologize, punk.
20:54Your wife's the one who should apologize.
20:56She stole something that doesn't belong to her.
20:58You loudmouth maggots are stealing our precious time.
21:03Leave!
21:04Before I make you go ahead and try.
21:12You shouldn't have done that one.
21:14Oh yeah?
21:16How about this?
21:20Do you realize you just assaulted the CEO of Purple Cross?
21:24I was defending myself.
21:26What you did, what you did to my friend Patty here, that was assault.
21:31Who's going to believe some decrepit old woman and her rat-faced sidekick over a CEO and his wife?
21:37Everyone here, they all saw what happened.
21:39You mean these lazy invalids who'd rather shout themselves hoarse, demanding money from us, than work an honest job?
21:48I worked night shift for 35 years in a warehouse, until the insurance company denied my back surgery.
21:55I was trained to become a pilot, until Purple Cross didn't have my insulin prescription.
22:00Now I'm blind in one eye, and have to give up on everything I worked for.
22:04All they want is a chance to live.
22:06You're done taking that away.
22:09I'm done.
22:11Newsflash.
22:12The one who has the gold makes the rules, asshole.
22:14Aw, did no one tell you?
22:16This protest is pointless, you'll all stay poor and sick, begging for money you're never going to get, like diseased hamsters stuck in a broken wheel.
22:28It's how the world works, you can't do it without money.
22:31It's always about money.
22:33You're right?
22:35When money talks, people listen.
22:40Here's Emilie's insurance money.
22:45They need it more than I do.
22:47Here's your medication.
22:50There's enough here for everyone, okay?
22:52Hey!
22:54There's over 200k in here.
22:56Either you stole this, or you're a drug dealer.
23:00Let's go out for a real nice dinner tonight, honey.
23:03Ooh.
23:04Stealing from the sick once again.
23:06That's what you greedy CEOs do best, isn't it?
23:08Stealing!
23:09I'll bet half these leeching phlegm buckets owe me money.
23:16Pricks like you don't scatter me anymore.
23:18Yeah?
23:19How about the cops?
23:21They'll get me eventually.
23:23But not today.
23:24What makes you think you're so invincible?
23:26You're a scrawny little nobody.
23:29I'm the CEO of a billion-dollar healthcare company.
23:32You have no idea who I am.
23:35And you don't want to find out.
23:38Who gave you the right to choose?
23:41Adjust things now or pay your due?
23:43Who gave you the right to choose?
23:45Adjust things now or pay your due?
23:47Who gave you the right to choose?
23:49Adjust things now or pay your due?
23:51Who gave you the right to choose?
23:53Adjust things now or pay your due?
23:55I'm shutting this down!
23:58We're not going anywhere.
23:59We're not going anywhere.
24:00We're not going anywhere. Who gave you the right to choose?
24:05Adjustings never pay you due. Who gave you the right to choose?
24:09Adjustings never pay you due.
24:10Cops aren't going to be enough. We need the mayor.
24:14Mayor Camden, there are violent protesters in front of DB Health intimidating pedestrians.
24:19Protesters, huh? Those chanting morons are a virus infecting the minds of our youth.
24:26I'll send more officers over.
24:29Mr. Mayor, their leader is the adjuster.
24:34I'll be there in five.
24:36It's for you. It's for you.
24:42Yeah, one more for you. Please.
24:47It's a miracle. But how?
24:50This is my sister's life insurance money.
24:53She'd want me to help people out while they still have a fighting chance.
24:57Consider an adjustment.
25:00There he is! The adjuster!
25:02That's the mayor. Now you'll be sorry.
25:07Mayor Camden, he's here.
25:09This pathetic guy is the adjuster?
25:13The calculated terrorist who murdered my dear friend Randy!
25:17I can't let them take me in yet. My work isn't done.
25:25No. I am the adjuster.
25:28No. I'm the adjuster.
25:30It's me. I'm the adjuster.
25:32It's me. I'm the adjuster.
25:33No, it's me. I'm the adjuster.
25:37Go! Now!
25:39Get him!
25:40Let's go! He's getting away!
25:42What's he going to say?
25:43He's getting away!
25:44Come's your head there!
25:45Get out there!
25:48He's over there!
25:50Don't let them go! Don't let them go!
25:51Come on!
25:58There!
25:59There!
26:00Get him!
26:01Get him!
26:03Get him! Get him!
26:05Not so clever, after all.
26:20Hey, man.
26:26Hey, you cool?
26:28Can you use the jacket?
26:32I got you.
26:35Hey, God bless you.
26:42Take care of it, man. Stay safe.
26:4626-year-old Matteo Leone has been identified as the CEO shooter.
26:51A $10,000 reward is being offered for any info that comes into our office.
26:56My name is out there now, but I won't hide for much longer.
27:04I wish someone didn't have to die to make them listen.
27:17I wish someone didn't have to die to make them listen.
27:27I wish I could hear my sisters laugh just one more time.
27:31But life isn't fair.
27:37Do you need some help?
27:39Do you mind?
27:40I don't mind.
27:41I have to put her on these walks so she can sleep.
27:43And then when she's asleep, I can never lift this up.
27:49Have a good night.
27:51The healthcare system has failed the people.
27:54And it needs to be taken down.
27:56This won't bring Amelia back.
28:09But it will save millions.
28:14Save millions.
28:26I'm not a monster.
28:28Accountability is part of the plan.
28:38Have a good one.
28:40And I'm almost ready to take it.
28:41And I'm almost ready to take it.
29:09I can't run forever.
29:16One last thing to check off the list.
29:25Let me get a McCrazy with Oreo space.
29:28It's fire.
29:30Can I have a bite?
29:32What?
29:33You want a bite?
29:34Yeah.
29:35If you pay for your own, I guess.
29:37Sure.
29:38Maybe.
29:39Okay, sure.
29:40Can I get two then?
29:44And you can keep the change.
29:48No fucking way.
29:53Hey.
29:55I got the guy you're looking for.
29:57My time as a free man is ending.
30:00But are any of us really free?
30:05Come on, come on, come on.
30:06Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on.
30:08Come on, come on, come on, come on.
30:09Come on, come on, come on.
30:10Come on, come on, come on.
30:12Well, well, well.
30:15Matteo Leone.
30:17Please.
30:18Don't do anything stupid.
30:21Is there a problem, officers?
30:26You little shit.
30:28Chief.
30:29It's all here.
30:30You're under arrest, motherfucker.
30:41You have the right to remain silent.
30:43Go ahead and arrest me.
30:45The people are about to wake up.
30:51No way.
30:53If you're reading this, I am in police custody.
30:55I won't stop fighting, but I can't do it alone.
30:59Will you join me?
31:05Matteo Leone is a cold-blooded killer
31:08who brutally murdered CEO Randall Thornwald.
31:11For his crimes, we are seeking the death penalty.
31:15How do you plead?
31:17They have it all wrong.
31:19Not guilty.
31:25Answer me, you shit-eating cockroach.
31:31Or should I pull the teeth out from your pretty little smile?
31:36Don't you realize you're gonna get the death penalty?
31:38I don't realize nobody's free until everybody's free.
31:45Let him go, Chief.
31:47Let him go.
31:48I can't let this sad sack have all the fun.
31:59You think you're a hero.
32:01You're a terrorist.
32:03And I won't rest until you're on death row.
32:07And you're afraid of me because you can't stop what I started.
32:11You're losing control, Mayor Cameron.
32:14Is that what you think?
32:15Well, let's see what the streets have to say, huh?
32:17You know.
32:24After you, gentlemen.
32:25Hang in there, Mateo. We're all on your side. We're fighting games.
32:40You're going down.
32:42Great use of resources, guys.
32:44No talking.
32:45The system is designed to annihilate scum like you.
32:47Burn in hell, you filthy criminal.
32:49You'll fry in that chair.
32:51You scared of me, Mr. CEO?
32:52Scared.
32:53Where's your money now?
32:54You're empty threats.
32:55You think you're some sort of superhero?
32:57You're shit on the bottom of a shoe.
32:59A fly about to be swatted.
33:01Easy for you to say.
33:03I don't think you're going down.
33:04Great use of resources, guys.
33:05No talking.
33:06The system is designed to annihilate scum like you.
33:08You think you're some sort of superhero?
33:09You're shit on the bottom of a shoe.
33:11A fly about to be swatted.
33:13Easy for you to say.
33:15Surrounded by cops and your bulletproof vests.
33:17Cowards!
33:19All of you!
33:20I could rip you apart!
33:27You're nothing but a filthy criminal.
33:30Powerless.
33:32Stupid.
33:33Pathetic.
33:34You know it.
33:36Back off!
33:37Let the court decide.
33:39Innocent is unproven guilty!
33:41Innocent is unproven guilty!
33:43Innocent is unproven guilty!
33:45Innocent is unproven guilty!
33:47It's completely unjust!
33:48It's an insult to the intelligence of the American people!
33:51And their lived experience!
33:55It's an insult to the American people and their lived experience!
33:59They can yell all they want, but they can't keep you from rotting in jail.
34:02Come on.
34:04Hear me!
34:06See you in court!
34:08Innocent is unproven guilty!
34:11Innocent is unproven guilty!
34:12Innocent is unproven guilty!
34:14Innocent is unproven guilty!
34:16No one can protect you in here.
34:21Let's see how long you last.
34:22Maybe I deserve everything that's coming to me.
34:29What you in here for, princess?
34:34What's your name, boy?
34:37Better start answering me, son, before I fuck you up, boy!
34:41I'm gonna fuck you up so bad they ain't gonna be able to recognize you when I'm fucking through!
34:44Now what's your fucking name, boy?
34:48Matteo.
34:50Leone.
34:54Oh shit!
34:56You're the adjuster.
34:57Dixon, you see the brothers in here, they're all gonna test you and they're gonna fuck with you.
35:08But they gotta get to us first.
35:10And my man Terrence over here is gonna get you cleaned up.
35:13Yo, T, clean this man up.
35:15Take a sit, bro.
35:16Take a sit, bro.
35:25The denial letter came a week after we buried her.
35:30I'm so sorry that happened.
35:32And what you did made a lot of guys in here feel a lot better.
35:37Just feel less hopeless.
35:43There's no going back.
35:44I'll fight to the death.
35:49Janet here, but the man of the hour hasn't shown yet.
35:53If you didn't know, today is the first day of the trial of the century.
35:57The United States versus Matteo Leone, also known as the adjuster.
36:02You saw the wanted posters!
36:05Corrupt CEOs' time is running out!
36:08You crusty plebeians could never get past security.
36:11Oh yeah? You sure about that?
36:12It's called survival of the fittest.
36:15We have not! We have not!
36:17The vibes are giving Pressure Cooker.
36:21Get her! Get her!
36:24Get her! Get her!
36:25Get her! Get her! Get her!
36:26Get her! Get her! Get her! Get her! Get her! Get her!
36:27The people are waking up.
36:52Enjoy it while it lasts.
36:54Our case is airtight.
36:56After this, nothing but prison and death for a sadistic monster like you.
37:01We'll see about that.
37:03Talk to my client again, and I'll have you disbarred.
37:07I'll see you in court.
37:08All right.
37:08Ladies and gentlemen of the jury.
37:34Matteo Leone viciously targeted Randall Thornwald rather than grieve
37:40with dignity. When his sister died of cancer, he cruelly premeditated the
37:45murder of a loving family man, a successful visionary CEO worth billions
37:51who purposely profited off of people's pain.
37:57These witnesses will paint a picture of just how dangerous Matteo Leone is.
38:04He could have saved his sister, but he was too broke to pay.
38:12He had motive. He was aggressive from the start. He's a bully.
38:16He pushed me and threatened my husband. He wanted them to suffer.
38:21That's not true. He thought he was so smart with all his messages.
38:26Mr. Leone is entitled, manipulative, and frankly, psychotic.
38:33Thank you, Mayor Camden. For my final witness, I call Brady Thornwald,
38:41Randall Thornwald's son.
38:43Brady, how has the death of your father, your hero, affected you?
38:51Will this kid be the nail in my coffin?
38:53My father's not my hero.
39:03Uh, you mean?
39:05I mean, I was incredibly devastated when that cold-blooded killer took my father's life away from me.
39:17You know what? Fuck that. My dad enjoyed hurting people. His entire vision as CEO was built on keeping people sick.
39:27And they're not just gonna sit here and lie because some company paid me to.
39:37You disrespect your own father. After everything he did for you?
39:49You know what? Lock me up. I don't care.
39:51Objection! He can't just sit down. You're nothing lower than suing sludge.
39:56Mr. Mayor, first, you treat him like some kind of sue event.
40:01Order!
40:06Mayor Camden, one more word and you'll be held in contempt.
40:10Yeah, yeah.
40:12No further questions.
40:14Based on the evidence provided,
40:18Matteo Leone undoubtedly is guilty of murder in the first degree.
40:23Prosecution rests.
40:25Ms. Weinhart?
40:28Judge will shine. People to jury.
40:34As the prosecution detailed, my client, Matteo Leone, shot and killed the CEO of DB Health.
40:44Randall Thornwall, dead.
40:51Someone had to do it.
40:54That's right. My client does not deny killing Mr. Thornwall.
40:58What he does deny, it was unwarranted.
41:01Mr. Leone had to act drastically to save lives.
41:05And today, we're here to defend his right so he can defend himself and others from becoming victims of a murderous corporation.
41:14Order!
41:24I call Patty Sinclair to the stand.
41:27Please tell us what happened to your husband.
41:42Clay and I, we just found out that we were going to be grandparents.
41:49Then one night, Clay had a heart attack.
41:56A doctor prescribed a treatment plan, but DB Health said no, not medically necessary.
42:01It would cost hundreds of thousands out of pocket.
42:04So we appealed, but all of our claims were denied.
42:08I was denied a walking boot for my fractured ankle.
42:12It got so bad they had to amputate, but they couldn't because they don't make prosthetics.
42:16I got addicted to pain medication, but denied surgery to cure my pain for good.
42:21We went bankrupt, and now we're homeless.
42:24He couldn't afford it, so he died.
42:27Appealed, but now she's paralyzed.
42:30If DB Health had approved my husband's surgery, he would still be alive.
42:43This young man, Mateo, saw how so many of us were being taken advantage of by DB Health's predatory business.
42:52And he did what no one else had the courage or actually the balls to do.
42:59He stood up.
43:06I couldn't have said it any better.
43:11Your Honor, I call Mr. Mateo Leoti to stand.
43:15This isn't a circus.
43:28Order in the court.
43:34Do you swear to tell the truth and nothing but the truth?
43:37If you swear to listen?
43:42I swear to tell the truth.
43:48Mr. Leoti, what drove you to kill the CEO of DB Health?
43:56Your Honor, it'll be better if I show you.
44:06Objection!
44:07This is new evidence not found to be-
44:09Sit down, Counselor.
44:11Go ahead.
44:12Thanks for being here.
44:13While I still have a voice, I want to tell you why.
44:27This is Amelia, my nine-year-old sister.
44:31She was just a baby when our parents died.
44:35And it's been the two of us against the world ever since.
44:38The doctor said she could beat leukemia if she started treatment right away.
44:43But DB Health wouldn't cover it.
44:46Even with a decent job, I couldn't afford to pay out of pocket.
44:50So I appealed.
44:52I was optimistic.
44:53I didn't know that there are almost 200,000 health insurance-related deaths per year.
44:59As we waited for a response, I watched my amazing little sister get sicker.
45:06And then DB Health denied her appeal.
45:11I did everything I could to fight back.
45:15I even pleaded with the CEO himself to save her life.
45:19He told me it was nothing personal.
45:22It was just the business of keeping people sick.
45:26And then he smiled.
45:30Amelia died.
45:35And I found out our story is very, very common.
45:42I'm talking mass corruption leading to massive amounts of lives ruined.
45:48Hundreds of thousands of lives ruined.
45:50Hundreds of thousands of lives ruined.
45:51All to fill their pockets.
45:53But we're bigger than them.
45:56All right?
45:57We're bigger than them.
45:58If we stand up together.
46:00Who's with me?
46:02The defense rests.
46:15Nothing more to do but wait.
46:20Nothing more to do but wait.
46:23After thorough consideration, Purple Cross Health will discontinue our limited anesthesia policy.
46:28Our company will end its wait-and-see policy beginning at the first of the month.
46:33We'll be halting our lottery policy effectively...
46:35Whatever happens today, you did this.
46:45We the jury find Matteo Leone...
46:48Dear Tracy, your letter made me tear up.
46:51I am so sorry you and your daughter had to go through such senseless pain.
46:55No one should have to experience that kind of systemic failure.
46:58You are an inspiration and your daughter is lucky to have a mother who didn't back down.
47:03All my best, Matteo Leone.
47:06Death or life in prison.
47:18At least I said my piece.
47:20Peace.
47:21RUN
