00:00You
00:44You'll have your dad next to you.
00:46Like he's going to do anything.
00:47That's important to the magistrate so you've got family support.
00:49Being in court today, I know it must be...
00:54Quite scary.
00:56Oh, my block.
00:58He says,
01:00He says,
01:02He says,
01:04He says,
01:06He says,
01:08I ain't done nothing wrong.
01:09I ain't done nothing wrong.
01:10I am walking out.
01:11And before that...
01:12I saw that.
01:13I'm going to look her right in the eyes,
01:14because whatever she thinks she can throw at me...
01:16A little humility,
01:18Joel.
01:19Always plays well with the bench.
01:20If you're scared by the situation.
01:24It's okay to show it.
01:26It's okay to show it.
01:27The thing is...
01:28There's an if.
01:30There.
01:31I ain't scared.
01:32I ain't scared.
01:33I ain't scared.
01:34There.
01:35I ain't scared.
01:36I ain't scared.
01:37I ain't scared.
01:38Never move my keys.
01:39I ain't scared.
01:40I ain't scared.
01:49You may be dead.
01:50You can see this.
01:51You can see him next week.
01:52I'll say it.
01:53I'm gonna see him next week.
01:54I'll say it over here,
01:55but I'm back and forth.
01:56I don't know.
01:57So I'll say it's okay.
01:58I don't know.
01:59I'm gonna know where you are.
02:00I was gonna notice...
02:01I was gonna know that it was...
02:02Take this through to him, yeah, and make sure his tie is done properly.
02:07Yeah.
02:17Vic, where you been all night?
02:20I've been worried sick.
02:22Yeah, I, um, I stay...
02:27I made a mark at Phil's.
02:28I didn't know where you were.
02:29I thought something happened to you.
02:30I'm sorry.
02:31I'm sorry.
02:32I just...
02:33This whole court thing, and then you were so frustrated with me in the cafe.
02:36I didn't want to leave it like that.
02:37Oh, I know.
02:38I'm sorry.
02:39I should have called you.
02:40And I'm sorry that Mark hit you.
02:41Yeah, but that ain't your fault, is it?
02:42No, but I should have stopped him.
02:43This it must.
02:44I'll tell you.
02:45I'll tell you.
02:46Listen, Ross.
02:47Whatever Joel did...
02:49You're still his dad.
02:50And...
02:51I'm not the only...
02:52You're still his dad.
02:53And...
02:54I'm not the only one dreading today.
02:57I know.
02:58I know that.
02:59I'm gonna go and have a shower just because I didn't get a chance at Phil's.
03:02Okay.
03:03Listen.
03:04Whatever happens today, I am here.
03:08And I'm on your side.
03:09And I'm on your side.
03:13Come on.
03:14Three.
03:15Two, three...
03:16Two.
03:17Two.
03:18And you ground up.
03:19It will be just like two 여기까지.
03:21No.
03:22...
03:23Oh, my dad's just with Vanny, but he's coming. He's only paid for single
03:28occupancy. My girlfriend's just...
03:33I have a hangover.
03:35Well, I had a drink last night too, so what?
03:37Um...
03:38All right, well, tell your dad you can just have toast.
03:43Oh, dozy dough.
03:48He keeps saying he's got a tummy ache, but...
03:53Yeah, yeah, yeah.
03:56Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
03:58When you....
03:58Do you know, the thing about bullies...
04:03is you can't stick your tongue out at them
04:06if you're sat at home pretending that you...
04:08Oh, little tummy hurts.
04:10I used to tell my mum I was poorly too.
04:13But then all those lies made my nose go really, really...
04:18so they bullied me about that as well.
04:23So what did you do about it?
04:26I stopped staying at home.
04:28I went to school and I ignored them
04:31because do you know what?
04:33What the bullies on is attention.
04:35And when you don't give them any, they disappear.
04:38Like that, in a puff of purple smoke.
04:43Right.
04:44I'll give you sandwiches.
04:45Do I have crisps?
04:47Too bad.
04:48Right, go and wait for me by the front door, okay?
04:54Put your coat on for me.
04:56Good boy.
04:58Good boy.
05:00Of course I'm not saying it...
05:03It was you that turned it into my specialist subject.
05:06And maybe one day his bully will have...
05:08a B&B and he'll get to stay in it.
05:10And maybe he'll be a little bit more grateful.
05:13Excuse me.
05:14Erm...
05:15I want my zigzaggy card here.
05:17Oh, is it...
05:18Is it Phil?
05:18Of course.
05:19I'll get it for you, Nigel.
05:21Anyway, wish me luck.

08:55In, she tried running my mum over
08:57I haven't tried to run anyone over
08:59What?
09:00Calling me a liar?
09:01Ian, can we just...
09:02I saw a line
09:03I was very upset
09:04What about your little scandal
09:05Making it into the papers
09:06I mean, it is bad enough
09:07Right, but she has virtually turned that place into a brothel
09:09Renting rooms out by the hour
09:10I do not rent by the hour
09:12Oh, so what, you thought you'd try and make yourself feel better by running my mum over?
09:16I wasn't trying to run your
09:17Our cab's got the dents to prove it
09:19I imagined it was you!

09:25Which kind of life isn't it?
09:27Okay, she has not killed
09:27He's drying his hands.
09:29I don't think I've seen him so nervous.
09:32Kat?

12:27And he'd been living in Australia.
12:32He didn't know no-
12:32Everyone and I, we just-
12:37He seemed like he walked taller.
12:41Oh.
12:42Fuck, he got Riz.
12:44For the sake of the court, Riz?
12:47He just, you know, you know, to get the girls.

12:57And you wanted to be his friend.
13:02Well, you know, we just used a moth-
13:05Well, you know, we just used a moth-
13:07To talk about.
13:09And he knew everything.
13:13He knew how it all worked.
13:16Tell me, what do you-
13:17What do you mean by all?
13:19Well-
13:21Well, just sometimes-
13:23I didn't know what to say.
13:25And-
13:27And he did.
13:30And he had all these videos on his-
13:32His phone.
13:34With men online.
13:37And they made it make sense.
13:40And how would you say Joel felt about-
13:42About the things he was watching.
13:48Tell me, Tommy.
13:50If it's easier.
13:51Tell me, Tommy.
13:52If it's easier.
13:52If it's easier.

13:58He used to say-
14:00He used to say-
14:01Women need to know what their place is.
14:06And we'll be right back.
14:11Come on, just let me in.
14:16Sorry, sir.
14:17Wait, just let me stand at the back.
14:19It's a youth court.
14:22Listen to me.
14:23Thank you all.
14:26Don't need waking.
14:27You can't make an exception.
14:28Just this once.
14:30Sharon's here.
14:31Yes.
14:32Good luck.
14:33Yes.
14:34Good luck.
14:36What's happened?
14:39What's happened?
14:41It can't happen again, okay?
14:45Ross is a good man.
14:46Yeah, but if he's buggy, wouldn't he?
14:48Job's worth one.
14:49Let us in with you.
14:51That's exactly what I was just saying to her, Matt.
14:54If he weren't a juvenile...
14:55Yeah, that's...
14:56That's what they're gonna say, innit?
14:57Poor little juvenile.
14:58Poor little juvenile.
15:01He's gonna get off.
15:05He knew how...
15:06It all worked.
15:07It was a proper laugh.
15:09He'd go.
15:12Res.
15:15Then its out.
15:16tried to point out the error of his ways did you it wasn't like that because if he's guilty here
15:20thinking the things he
15:21thinks what are you the witness it's not on trial here mr.
15:26you watch the same guys online
15:31you went with him to watch one of them in person you just said yourself they made it
15:36makes sense I told him in fact the night that he allegedly attacked Vicky
15:41Fowler you protected him you hid him everything
15:46that happened you were there cheering him on he told me he just punched a wall
15:51but when I knew
15:56I saw the ambulance you say he wanted to hurt women but you had difficulties with
16:00your own mom in the past
16:01didn't I fail to see the relevance of this mr. tree we really want to know why
16:04Joel Marshall saw women how you
16:06say he did that ain't the same you're not putting this on him please mr.
16:10and mrs. moon
16:11trying to paint yourself like some kind of hero but if we really want to
16:13understand who enabled it all I wanted was
16:16to make

20:00and you've got no idea what they're watching,
20:04what it's doing to their head.
20:05We would try so hard.
20:10To talk to him, to try and make him understand that all of this stuff...
20:15that he was watching and...
20:20and saying was wrong.
20:26But he would just have an answer for everything.
20:29And, um...
20:30Where'd you even start?
20:35You're not the night of the attack?
20:39Well, um...
20:41Things had kicked off at the school.
20:44Joel had...
20:46Managed to show this really...
20:49Sick.
20:51Video in assembly.
20:53And, um...
20:55We were just trying to make him see how offensive that was, but...
21:01This world...
21:04That he lives in...
21:05Anyway, I, um...
21:10I told his dad to get out of there before he did, so he regretted.
21:15Because...
21:17Um...
21:18Every single button...
21:21Joel knows how to push it.
21:24Make his dad...
21:25Feel small.
21:29And then...
21:30Um...
21:33And then, um...
21:35And then, um...
21:36Joel said things.
21:39And then I said things.
21:40Things...
21:43Things to head that maybe I'm not...
21:45Not proud of.
21:48And then...
21:51He hit me.
21:52He hit me.
21:56And then I was on the floor.
21:57And then I was on the floor.
22:01And then he just...
22:04Kicked.
22:05Hitting me.
22:07Kicking me.
22:11And I thought I was gonna die.
22:12And I thought I was gonna die.
22:15Cause I was really gonna die.
22:19See?
22:20Okay.
22:25And then he got his phone.
22:30And then he got his phone.
22:35I don't know if Kit gets there for now.
22:40I don't know if Kit gets there for now.
22:45And he, um, he filmed it.
22:50Lying to me.
22:54Lying.
22:55Lying there.
22:57He filmed me.
22:59Beat him.
23:00Unconscious.
23:06I missed it all up, didn't I?
23:09No, you...
23:10You did it!
23:11You did great!
23:12I missed everything up.
23:13Tommy, that ain't true.
23:14No, because if I never brought Zoe back she wouldn't...
23:15...to be in prison.
23:16Now, Joe ain't gonna get punished and...
23:17Oh, stop, stop, stop.
23:18Listen, none of this is on you, okay?
23:20Listen.
23:21You did not mess up, alright?
23:23And we love you.
23:24Come here.
23:26Listen, Tommy.
23:27Whatever happens to Joe, it's not on your...
23:30You standing up there today and saying what you did?
23:33We are so proud of you.
23:35Okay.
23:37Okay.
23:40Hey.
23:41I'm proud of you, kid.
23:42Oh, you did good.
23:43You did good.
23:44You did good.
23:45You all right?
23:49T-
23:50Zoey about Jasmine doing a runner. What's the point? She needs whatever...
23:55She can get to hold on to, so we keep looking, find where Jasmine's hiding, and when we find her, we...
24:00get the truth, and we get Zoey out of here.
24:05You talked about Joel struggling when his parents...
24:10split up. Yeah, um, I felt for him. I bet it wasn't easy.
24:15Seeing his mum leave the family home, humiliating her husband.
24:20Yeah.
24:22No, I... I wasn't there.
24:25And then you come along.
24:27Another woman with a long-standing partner, and...
24:30and you cheat on him with Joel's dad.
24:33Sorry. What has that got...
24:35Once again, the witness is not on trial here.
24:38I'm just trying to explore some of...
24:40for the reasons why young Joel might feel some level of anger towards women.
24:45I had nothing to do with them splitting up.
24:50I tried every step of the way to support Joel.
24:55To be a good mum.
24:56And that includes grabbing him and slamming him against the wall.
25:00On the 18th of June last year, did you or didn't you...
25:05slam young Joel against the wall and shout in his face,
25:08that's the last time you'll do anything like...
25:10I was trying to get through to him.
25:11I lost my patience.
25:14I wasn't hitting...
25:15Nothing Ms. Fowler did changes what Joel is being accused of.
25:19A young...
25:20impressionable adolescent struggling with finding his place in the world.
25:24Seeing his...
25:25father's new partner resort to violence.
25:27I wasn't like that.
25:28Trying to navigate his way through a new world of...
25:30relationships.
25:31Seeing women cheating on the men who try their hardest to support them.
25:35And I made you a point.
25:36I made you a point.
25:41We were just trying to make him see it was wrong.
25:43We were just trying to make him see it was wrong.
25:46Is that why when there was a bit of family trouble in Australia,
25:48you and his dad paid the...
25:50the other people involved $25,000 to keep quiet.
25:55He was trying to keep quiet.
25:56He is trying to keep quiet.
25:57I am not paying because he is willing to keep quiet.
25:58We are trying to skip to what I had to do.
25:59Let's see.
26:00Let's go.
26:02Let's go.
26:03Why?
26:04So...
26:05Let's go.
26:07Toful.
26:10Toful.
26:11Toful.
26:13Toful.
26:15It's just like the v boleh.
26:16Toful.
26:18ThePD.
26:19Pulling.
26:21ThePD.
26:23I'm just trying to help the court understand how any of that was trying.
26:28To make him see it was wrong.
26:30How was my client ever meant to learn if every time he was presented with an example?
26:33How dare you! How dare you!
26:38Miss Fowler, please!
26:40Oh, do you know what? What is the point?
26:43Miss Fowler!
26:45No, I'm done!
26:48Miss Fowler, please!
26:53Miss Fowler, please!
26:55Miss Fowler, please!
26:57Miss Fowler, please!
26:58Miss Fowler, please!
27:02I've told you, Ian. I'm not f...
27:03fighting anymore. Good, good, nor am I. I just want to let you know that I'm going to stand for
27:08council. Well, if you're here canvassing for votes, you can shove it right up. Well, when I win,
27:13which I will. Yeah, right. I'm going to shut down your precious peacock palace.
27:18No one crosses the views.
27:23This is what they want, Victor, get in your head.
27:28No, you didn't.
27:28Hear what he's told them.
27:30Yeah, he was out of order.
27:31Oh, yeah, thanks for saying something, Ross.
27:33I'd have been thrown out.
27:34Oh, and then who would have supported poor little Joel?
27:36Oh, Vic, that ain't fair.
27:37What exactly was...
27:38What is he saying?
27:38That I'm a cheat. That I beat him up. That everything he's done is because I...
27:43I enabled it.
27:44They only play dirty when they're losing quick. It'll be one or two more questions.
27:47Do you know what? Your son...
27:48It's in there, smirking his head off while his solicitor tries to make out like I'm the
27:52problem.
27:53If you let him...
27:53I am not going back in there. I can't.
27:56The case will collapse.
27:57He's going to get off any...
27:58By the way, I don't care anymore. All of this.
28:03Oh, s***.
28:03Seriously, you do not care.
