00:18The Narrow River Killing refers to the brutal murder of Paul Sparling.
00:24Fellow student Shane Martin was arrested for first-degree murder,
00:27though it was widely believed his classmate Oliver St. Ledger was responsible for the crime.
00:34When I was in high school, a kid drowned.
00:36I was involved.
00:38Paul just attacked Shane.
00:40Shane just kept on pushing Paul's head underwater.
00:44You're a fucking liar.
00:45Ciara, what are you talking about?
00:47Don't follow me!
00:48Did you forget the restraining order, Shiloh?
00:51You need to get Oliver St. Ledger away from my family.
00:53I don't know what you're talking about.
00:54Oliver St. Ledger is living with my little sister.
00:58Megan?
00:59What the fuck, Shiloh?
01:01I'm going to help you get rid of him.
01:03I'm gonna take care of it.
01:04No, you.
01:05Shiloh, I need you to trust me that I'm gonna handle this on my own.
01:09Oliver, are you there?
01:10This woman, Ciara, is not who you think she is.
01:14It's Megan Martin. She's Shane's sister.
01:17It's okay, Dan. He knows.
01:34Anything they started off fighting about, he can bring it back to that.
01:37I mean, this time, it's about how my mom never puts gas in the car, and he always has to
01:41do it when he's already late.
01:43You know, and somehow he brings it back to how my school wants me to apply to all these private,
01:46out-of-state D1 colleges for lacrosse.
01:48And it makes him look like the bad guy, because you can't afford any of them.
01:51Shane, I mean, your dad is the Kevin Garnett of talking shit about Bridgefield.
01:57You know, and also there's such thing as lacrosse scholarships.
01:59Ivy's don't have athletic scholarships, and nowhere else is gonna be a four-ride.
02:03Whatever. I mean, talking about why all these schools are no-goes also pisses them off.
02:07I mean, you're so lucky.
02:09Yeah, I know you think so.
02:10I'm not even talking about being able to afford Stanford.
02:13Being able to afford to buy Stanford and rename it after yourself.
02:16St. Ledger University.
02:18Hey, shut up. Shut up, dude, please.
02:20I'm talking about not having to listen to your parents screaming at each other every five minutes
02:25over something you can't change, and neither can they.
02:27Well, I mean, to want to argue about shit, you kind of gotta care about it.
02:31You know? It's not that difficult.
02:33Well, I mean, any time mine wanna stop caring so much, that would be great.
02:36But they won't, because they can't live unless they're up my ass.
02:39My sister can't either. I mean, Shiloh moved to fucking Pawtucket.
02:42She's still trying to be my boss.
02:44What I would give...
02:45Here we go.
02:46...to be you for one day. Just one, just to try it, just to see.
02:50Not even for the money, just for the, like, silence.
02:59That guy might have told Paul we would be here.
03:01Whatever, he's not a bad guy if you give him a chance.
03:03No, you say that every single time.
03:06Nah, he's just insecure.
03:07Yeah, I promise, if you hang in there, eventually he saw us being such a dick.
03:11Prove it.
03:12What does that even mean?
03:13What's up, fuckheads?
03:18You gonna be okay? What's up?
03:19What's up as I fucking ran here?
03:21You're kidding, from Bridgefield?
03:23Yeah, that's right, shithead.
03:24Wow.
03:25I know Coach said you need to do more cardio, but damn.
03:31You guys are so into this place.
03:33It was cool for, like, you know, five minutes in middle school.
03:37Jesus.
03:39And don't you literally have, like, a massive house with a fucking helipad?
03:44There's no helipad.
03:45Why would anybody want to hang out here instead of there?
03:47Your dad have, like, no peasant rule or something?
03:51Oh, because I'm a peasant, right?
03:52A scholarship peasant?
03:53Yeah, I've been in there.
03:54Has your dad even lived in that house before?
03:56Like, uh, even when you were a baby?
04:00Because my dad says your dad hasn't been back to Narragansett since, like, the 90s.
04:04How would your dad even know that?
04:05Well, he's in global finance too, dude.
04:07People talk to each other.
04:08It's a network.
04:09Who cares?
04:10All these houses fucking freezing and none of the furniture is comfortable, okay?
04:14Here.
04:16What the...
04:17Are you fucking kidding me?
04:18There's mosquitoes now?
04:19Come on.
04:21Is your mom in town?
04:22Is that why we can't go to your house?
04:23What's your fucking deal, dude?
04:24Uh, it's buggy and clammy here, and it doesn't not smell like pee.
04:28Uh, you have a house too, dipshit?
04:30Yeah.
04:30Well, they're selling it.
04:33Because the whole divorce is my dad punishing my mom for getting mad at him for cheating.
04:39So...
04:40That's hard.
04:42I'm really sorry.
04:46Thanks.
04:49Hey, how is your mom doing?
04:50Shittily.
04:51Why?
04:52Just sucks, that's all.
04:55Makes total sense why she'd be having a tough time with everything.
04:58Yeah.
05:00Makes total sense your mom would be running her mouth again about someone she barely fucking knows.
05:04Fuck you, she knows it.
05:06Yeah, from sidelines and sport banquets, but not really.
05:08What are you even talking about?
05:09You just seem like you know something, Shane, so you tell me.
05:12Your mom's the one saying shit she heard from somebody who heard it from somebody like it's fucking real.
05:16She saw it in the paper, but...
05:17Who reads the local news?
05:19No one.
05:20When NPD arrests someone, it's always in the local police blotter.
05:23I'm not saying it should be, but...
05:24She didn't think she was gonna need a basket, and then she had too many things in her hands, so
05:28she was gonna go get one.
05:29I mean, she didn't even leave the fucking store, and now everybody thinks she's a fucking thief.
05:40You know what, I'm sorry.
05:42Yeah, I'm sorry too.
05:43Yeah.
05:44I'm sorry your mom's a bitch who won't shut the fuck up.
05:47Fuck the...
05:50Man, what's your fucking problem?
05:52Fuck!
05:55Hey, guys!
05:56Fuck you, bitch!
05:57Guys!
05:58Fuck you!
06:01Take a fucking sec!
06:02Take a sec, okay?
06:03Fuck!
06:04Chill out.
06:11Stop!
06:22Stop!
06:24Help!
06:25Stop!
06:29No!
06:29Let me have a dance down
06:35Watch out the carpet grass
06:38So don't knock, knock down the clouds
06:42You must have been
06:46Hide, you must have been
06:51Hide, you must have been
06:54Let me go!
07:20Let me go!
07:29Let me go!
07:48If I say it's self-defense
07:50If I just tell them that it's self-defense
07:52It doesn't work like that!
07:53They're gonna say it's self-defense!
07:55It doesn't work like that!
07:56But if we just!
07:57It's because it was you that did it!
07:58You weren't defending yourself!
08:03Look, we didn't go to the Narrows today after school, alright?
08:06And we didn't know Paul was gonna be there
08:07He didn't ask me to hang out after practice
08:09And he wouldn't have asked you anything
08:11Because you're not even fucking friends
08:15I had to go home and babysit my sister anyway
08:17So you gave me a ride
08:18And then you what?
08:23Say it!
08:24I...
08:28I went home
08:30And I studied for chem
08:33Until I got a headache
08:34And then I...
08:35And then I went to bed
08:45What about your, um...
08:49Well, I...
08:50Yeah, I wiped out your Inc. Scoring drills
08:52And someone must have stepped on me
08:57I'm sorry
09:00I'm sorry
09:01I'm sorry
09:04I'm sorry
09:04I know you were just trying to help me
09:07Save me
09:10You probably did
09:11Thanks
09:14Thanks
09:42Thanks
09:43What are you doing?
09:44Nothing
09:49Where were you?
09:51Those are dirty
09:52Yeah, whatever
09:54Why are you wet?
09:55I took a shower
09:56When?
09:57Just now
09:58When I thought I heard something outside
10:01What did you do to your face?
10:03Nothing
10:04You look like you...
10:04No I don't, Megan!
10:12I got fouled at practice
10:13Alright?
10:14And then I came home
10:15And I took a shower
10:16And I'm back in here
10:17With you
10:18Like I have been this whole time
10:22Are you okay?
10:26Yeah, I'm fine
10:29I'm hungry
10:31You wanna make stovetop s'mores?
10:49Think of the dangerous
10:50People
10:50Oh
10:50Oh
10:50Oh
10:54Oh
10:55Oh
10:56Oh
10:56Oh
11:56Hey, Oliver. I don't have him, but I maybe might this weekend.
12:00It has to be now.
12:03I'm sorry. It's really important.
12:08I hope you think so.
12:18Hello? Can anyone hear us?
12:20Gretchen and Kenji, if you're on, get off.
12:24So what's so cloak and dagger?
12:26I killed someone.
12:27What?
12:30Who?
12:35Paul.
12:37Paul Sparling.
12:40You're sure he's dead?
12:50Yeah.
12:52We were at the Narrows.
12:55Who's we?
12:58Me, Shane, Martin, and Paul.
13:01Who else?
13:02It was just us.
13:04Okay.
13:06Stop talking.
13:08I need to think.
13:18Oliver.
13:19I'm Detective Sheehan.
13:21My lieutenant's just getting off a call, but we can start...
13:24This being recorded, Jerry?
13:26About a custodial interrogation, so I want to make some notes, but first things first.
13:32Your lawyer here, Mr. Sykes, he filled me in a little bit on what happened.
13:36But obviously, I want to hear from you.
13:38Can you tell me about it?
13:40Just start wherever you're comfortable.
13:41If I have any questions, I'll ask you.
13:48Yeah, I was, um...
13:51I was home.
13:52And I'd been studying all night because I had a midterm coming up, and I didn't really understand the material.
13:59But I, uh, I forgot to eat.
14:02So, uh, after a little while, like, I got a headache.
14:04And, um, I set an alarm for early, so I can, uh, wake up and do some more in the
14:12morning.
14:13But then I, uh, I woke up, uh, because someone was, um, was, uh, buzzing to be let in.
14:23And who was that?
14:26Um, that was, uh, Shane.
14:30Shane Martin.
14:31Shane Martin, okay.
14:34And this was what time?
14:37This was around midnight.
14:41Last chance.
14:42No idea.
14:43You have no idea?
14:45No.
14:46You can't think of a single thing happening they might want to talk to you about.
14:49Right, and I don't buy it.
14:51It's why I keep asking, because I want to have some idea of what kind of buzzsaw we're about to
14:54walk into.
14:55You knock out some more streetlights or steal some shit your buddies think is nothing, but to regular people means
15:00real money.
15:01God, like, you and your friends never gotten into anything stupid before.
15:04Except, you know what, no one at your school ever got into an Ivy League college.
15:07Probably doesn't even know what one is.
15:08Oh, oh, shh.
15:10So Shane's going to the Ivy League now.
15:12Wow.
15:13Really?
15:13Well, when were you guys going to tell me that?
15:15After we talked to the cops, I guess?
15:17Could you have a little faith in your son, please?
15:19Could we just...
15:19Because I have no faith in my son, right?
15:22So you're on with that whole narrative again, that I have no faith in my son?
15:25He could have a better future.
15:31He could have a...
15:33Hey, great to see you.
15:36Fabulous.
15:37You're good, too.
15:38You're a man.
15:39Listen, I want you to tell your father he said,
15:41I want you to take a nail.
15:44Prison.
15:45Addied.
15:48Stop, stop!
15:49Hey!
15:50Hey!
15:51Take his hands!
15:52Hey!
15:53Bring it now!
15:54Stop it!
15:55Hold on!
15:56Stop!
15:56Come on!
15:56Get easy.
15:58Stop it!
15:59Get out of here!
16:00Get back inside.
16:06Hey!
16:08Hey!
16:17Hey!
16:18Hey!
16:18Hey!
16:19Hey!
16:19Hey!
16:19Hey!
16:20Hey!
16:25Hey!
16:49Oh, my God.
16:57Oh, my God.
17:35Oh, my God.
17:35We're kind of close there, Otis.
17:38Hey, Oliver.
17:39A little bit.
17:39Seven minutes till morning announcements.
17:43If I had that car, I'd probably want to hang out in it all day, too.
17:46But you're about to get one demerit for being late and another for ignoring me to my fate.
17:50Oh, my God.
17:51Are you all right?
17:52Hey, Oliver, can you open the door?
17:53Where's my, where's my, we need to call 911?
17:57Please, please, please.
17:58No, please don't.
18:01Please.
18:03I still think we should at least go to urgent care.
18:05I feel way better now.
18:08I really do.
18:08All right.
18:10Still, an hour ago, you were passing out in your car.
18:17Uh, amoxicillin.
18:19Here.
18:21Take two.
18:22Or maybe four.
18:25Why do you just have these?
18:26Dog bite.
18:28In the stop and shop parking lot?
18:30Yeah.
18:31Apparently, different tail waggings have different meanings.
18:33I thought a dog wagging its tail always means friendly.
18:36It does not.
18:39Yeah, I thought that, too.
18:40Yeah, well, now we both know better.
18:52Hey, what about your mom?
18:54What if we called her?
18:55No, I think it's, uh, I think it's 12 hours ahead there.
18:58Well, still wouldn't be past 11 p.m.
18:59I don't think that there's reception.
19:01There's gonna be reception at a resort.
19:03Uh, she's off the coast.
19:04It's, it's her friend's boat.
19:06Um, and the school knows.
19:07She told them.
19:08I'm gonna have them mark you an excused absence.
19:11I'll say, I saw you and I sent you home sick.
19:14It's not even a lie.
19:18And I'll leave you the amoxicillin.
19:20Take a couple more tonight.
19:22Look, look, I know.
19:26You're good friends with Shane and Paul.
19:29I know you're having a hard time right now.
19:32I wish you weren't having it alone.
19:34Go easy on yourself, okay?
19:37Understand that
19:39Something terrible has happened to you, too.
19:44Try to give yourself a little grace.
19:53Uh, wait, uh, uh, please, wait.
20:01And you're what again?
20:02Uh, guidance counselor?
20:04School counselor.
20:06What kind of background is a school counselor supposed to have in this kind of thing?
20:09Well, I'm actually a licensed independent clinical social worker.
20:13But I'm working towards getting licensed in Rhode Island as a clinical mental health counselor.
20:19And what makes you think my son needs your help?
20:22Yeah.
20:23I'm not saying it has to be me.
20:27But
20:30from the amount of detail Oliver gave me about his present headspace and what led to it,
20:37he's going to need therapy from someone.
20:40And what amount of detail would that be exactly?
20:45Clinically.
20:47Enough.
20:49Enough for what?
20:53It's enough to know what really happened.
20:57Every time I think there's nothing left that can surprise me.
21:01I'll put you in touch with my personal accountant.
21:14Mom?
21:16Yeah?
21:21Do you want tea?
21:25No.
21:33I understand.
21:35This may be weird at first.
21:40It's okay.
21:41You do this too.
21:42You know, you see people outside of school.
21:45My real life goal was always this.
21:49So I'm your first patient?
21:53Yeah.
21:54You kind of are.
21:58Don't you have to be able to come clean, tell the truth, you know, be honest?
22:09What are you saying you haven't been honest with me?
22:12You didn't tell me the truth?
22:15Of course I have.
22:16Yes, I did.
22:19Okay, then.
22:21It's gonna work.
22:23Hey, it's already working.
22:29Hey!
22:32Oh!
22:38No!
22:44No!
22:47No!
22:49No!
22:53No!
23:21No, Shiloh, you want to meet us at the crib?
23:22No, I can't. Do a shooter for me.
23:29Hello?
23:30Hey, McGaggy.
23:32Hi, Shai.
23:33Hello?
23:34It's not Shane, Mom.
23:36Don't tie up the phone.
23:39She just talked to him yesterday, didn't she?
23:41They're not going to let him call her again today.
23:43I doubt she knows what day it is.
23:46When are you coming home?
23:4820 minutes. I'm leaving work right now.
23:50Just do us all a favor and stay out of her way, okay?
23:55Okay.
23:59You all packed?
24:01You travel Tuesday, right?
24:05Boy, orientation's probably going to be pretty hectic.
24:08A lot of new people, new living situation.
24:16What? What are you thinking right now?
24:22That you were right.
24:24That I might not be ready right now to go to Stanford.
24:33That I can't.
24:36Have you talked about any of this with your dad?
24:43No.
24:47Well,
24:50you need to, Ollie.
24:54Call him.
24:56And tell him.
24:59I can't.
25:01You want me to do it?
25:05Please.
25:05Yes.
25:07Okay.
25:11Oliver St. Ledger.
25:13He dropped my brother off at our house in his car.
25:15Are you aware Mr. St. Ledger
25:16says he did not see your brother after school
25:18until Shane came to his house after midnight?
25:22Yes, I am,
25:23but it's not true.
25:24What the hell are you doing?
25:25Are you,
25:26are you playing at trial or something?
25:28Is it,
25:29is it supposed to be funny?
25:30No.
25:30Because it isn't.
25:32I know.
25:33I did see him.
25:36Shane didn't come right home after practice.
25:38He didn't come home till later.
25:39And when he did,
25:41I saw him.
25:43I saw him getting out of Oliver's car.
25:45You're doing this right now.
25:46I cannot believe you can't see
25:48how wrong it is
25:50for you to do this right now.
25:51It's not like that.
25:52It's really true.
25:53It's never like that.
25:54Right?
25:56Like,
25:56like when your teacher kicked you.
25:58Like when the woman in the stop and shop
25:59tried to kidnap you.
26:01It's never about you wanting attention.
26:02It's always true.
26:03The jury
26:04is deciding
26:05right now,
26:06Megan.
26:07Remember?
26:08They're all sitting in a room
26:10talking
26:11about whether
26:12they're going to send
26:13your brother to prison
26:15for life.
26:18Now, I'm sorry
26:20that we are all so terrified
26:21of that,
26:22that we can't put our attention on you.
26:23I'm sorry that this is
26:24the worst fucking thing
26:26that's ever happened in the world
26:27and you still have to make it about you.
26:41The people of the state
26:42of Rhode Island
26:43versus Shane Martin.
26:45Verdict,
26:46count one,
26:47voluntary manslaughter.
26:49We, the jury,
26:50find the defendant
26:51guilty.
27:08Six minutes,
27:0911 seconds,
27:09actually.
27:12Very good for my age,
27:14Anybody's age.
27:17What were you
27:17last time you were in the pool?
27:20Uh, 317.
27:22What the fuck?
27:24You're going backwards now.
27:26Are you even practicing?
27:29I'm not really sleeping lately.
27:37Since the verdict.
27:40I get it.
27:42All the more reason
27:43to stay disciplined.
27:45Here's the thing.
27:46Practice.
27:47You have to do it every day.
27:49You're staying on it, right?
27:51Grow your capacity.
27:53Your number grows.
27:54It's like anything.
27:55Just keep at it.
27:57Let me know.
28:06Sometimes I just feel like
28:08I have to call Shane,
28:09but that's stupid
28:10because you can't call.
28:12So,
28:12no,
28:13you can't call.
28:15I try to go see him
28:17to be put on his visitors list
28:19or whatever.
28:24When, um,
28:27when did you do this?
28:28I don't know.
28:29A month ago.
28:31They said he said no.
28:34Oh, well.
28:37That's understandable too,
28:38though, right?
28:42If he said yes,
28:44would, uh...
28:45So I try to write it
28:46in a letter.
28:51I am disappointed.
28:53He didn't feel like
28:54this was something
28:55you could talk over
28:56with me first.
28:57It felt like I could,
28:58I could start
28:59with, with this.
29:04Uh, but then,
29:05but then I felt like
29:07if I send it,
29:09is he even gonna open it?
29:14And if he doesn't open it,
29:16then maybe sending it
29:17at all
29:18is still the point.
29:20I don't,
29:22I don't know.
29:23Okay.
29:24Okay, what about this?
29:27Shane knows me
29:28from school.
29:30What if I have to be
29:31put on his visitors list?
29:33You know,
29:34I, I don't say why,
29:36but I take that with me.
29:39And I read it.
29:42Out loud.
29:43And whatever happens next
29:44is up to him.
29:55I'm just sorry
29:56I couldn't make myself
29:57do it before.
30:00And I know
30:01it won't make me
30:01a good person
30:02to do the right thing now,
30:03but still.
30:06I'm gonna fix everything.
30:10I promise.
30:18You look a little...
30:19Yeah.
30:20The food's pretty bad here.
30:21Yeah.
30:21They serve it at weird times,
30:22whatever.
30:25I don't know why
30:26I didn't think
30:26you'd actually come.
30:27I don't know why
30:28it took me so long to ask.
30:30I mean,
30:30we didn't ever talk
30:31all that much in school,
30:32so...
30:34I'm not saying that
30:35for, like, blame.
30:35No, I know you're not.
30:36It just doesn't reflect
30:38very well on me, though.
30:42So, can I ask
30:43how you are?
30:48I'm so sorry
30:49about all of this.
30:51It's just...
30:52It's really terrible.
30:54Yeah.
30:55Yeah, it's pretty terrible.
30:56Yeah.
31:00In full disclosure,
31:01and I know
31:02I should have said this
31:03up front when I first
31:04asked to come see you...
31:05Are you gonna try
31:05and write a book
31:06or something?
31:07Oh.
31:09Uh...
31:10No.
31:13I'm working with Oliver.
31:18Working with him how?
31:19Just counseling him
31:22as his therapist.
31:24So you're with him, then?
31:26Yeah, I wouldn't let him
31:27in, so he sent you?
31:29No.
31:31Although,
31:32obviously,
31:33that's a very
31:34logical first question
31:35to ask.
31:35What does he need
31:36therapy for?
31:37Huh?
31:38Does he feel bad
31:39for what he did?
31:40Actually, yeah,
31:40he does.
31:41Which part?
31:43Killing Paul?
31:44Killing me?
31:47I understand.
31:48It must feel
31:50unbelievable.
31:51What must?
31:52I don't know.
31:54How the world
31:56just
31:56still turning
31:59like you were
32:00never even in it.
32:03Like all I am
32:05is this thing
32:06I didn't do,
32:06you mean?
32:08All because I was stupid
32:09and tried to help
32:10my friend?
32:12Do you guys
32:13talk about that
32:14in your little
32:15fucking therapy sessions?
32:17What he did to me
32:18for trying to help him?
32:19Because if anything else,
32:21you're just another
32:21person getting paid
32:22to listen to him
32:23lie.
32:25Shane,
32:27it doesn't matter
32:28what Oliver's told me.
32:30My job isn't
32:30to judge
32:31what the truth is
32:33and I wouldn't be
32:34in charge of anything
32:35even if it was.
32:37It's more that
32:38his pain
32:39has made me
32:41think about yours
32:42and how
32:43I just
32:44I can't imagine
32:45what you're going through
32:46or the strength
32:47I know you'll need
32:48to find.
32:49For what?
32:51I have strength.
32:52I know you do.
32:53See, I remember
32:54that about you.
32:55Like you said,
32:55we didn't talk much
32:56but still
32:57I could tell
32:57you had character
32:59integrity
33:00that
33:00those things
33:02matter to you.
33:07Just
33:11before I came
33:12to Bridgefield
33:12I was a social worker
33:14this was in
33:15Connecticut
33:16and a lot
33:17of my clients
33:17were in
33:18your situation
33:19with public
33:20defenders
33:20who were no match
33:21for white shoes.
33:22And?
33:23One of my clients
33:26gone.
33:28her husband
33:29was doing
33:2915 to life
33:30in McDougal.
33:32Dave had
33:33a carpet
33:33laying business
33:34with his cousin
33:34and the cousin
33:35had a shady
33:36side thing
33:37where a guy
33:37ended up
33:38getting killed
33:38over money
33:39and the cousin
33:40took a plea
33:41saying it was
33:42all Dave.
33:45Dave just
33:46thought
33:47he didn't
33:48do it
33:48and that
33:49would prevail.
33:52He did
33:53not have
33:53stopped
33:54his frustration
33:55and rage
33:55from getting
33:56him into situations
33:57that just added
33:57more years
33:58to his sentence
34:00where
34:00how to live
34:01knowing
34:02he was only
34:03in prison
34:03in the first place
34:04off a lie
34:05from someone
34:05he trusted.
34:08And compared
34:09to you
34:11he was lucky.
34:14He wasn't up
34:15against people
34:16with enough money
34:17to make the world
34:18exactly the way
34:19they want it.
34:25so what happened
34:26to Dave?
34:28Is he still
34:28in prison?
34:31No.
34:34When did he get
34:34paroled?
34:39He did.
34:41I'm not going to
34:43go into details
34:44if it's okay
34:45just out of respect.
34:47I'm just never
34:48never going to
34:49forget
34:49that phone call.
34:54There was one
34:55tiny silver lining
34:56craziest that is
34:58to say.
34:59Dave's family
35:00didn't think so
35:00but I know
35:01Dave would have.
35:03It's something
35:04called
35:04the doctrine
35:05of abatement.
35:06Look,
35:07if you're convicted
35:08at trial
35:08even for murder
35:09and you die
35:10in prison
35:10before all your
35:11appeals are exhausted
35:12your convictions
35:13automatically set aside
35:14and your
35:15indictment is dismissed
35:16like it never
35:17even happened.
35:20When he died
35:21because he died
35:22as far as law
35:24and the world
35:24were concerned
35:26Dave was
35:27an innocent man.
35:33Hey.
35:34Finally no line
35:35at the vending machines.
35:35I'm going to get
35:36a soda.
35:38You want one?
35:57No, no, no.
35:58They must have, Mom.
35:58They wouldn't just say
35:59this is the person
36:00calling, okay?
36:00Yes, they could.
36:01This is ACI
36:03calling and we're
36:03sorry to...
36:04Okay, but that doesn't
36:04make any sense, Mom,
36:05okay?
36:06So are they gonna
36:06call us back?
36:07He wouldn't do that
36:08to himself.
36:09He wouldn't do it
36:09to me.
36:09He would never do that.
36:11I'm going to call them
36:12and I'm going to find
36:12out who called us,
36:13okay?
36:13Wherever the guards
36:14were supposed to be
36:15watching them.
36:15Where are they?
36:16Oh, my God.
36:18It's terrible.
36:19It's a terrible thing.
36:20It's hard to even
36:21think about
36:22the kind of desperation
36:23behind a choice
36:24like Dad.
36:26Makes you think
36:27about all your own
36:28choices in life,
36:29right?
36:30All the things
36:30you've done
36:31or haven't done.
36:37Hey.
36:38Hey.
36:39Hey, hey.
36:40Hey, you know
36:41the Navy Seals
36:41use this thing
36:42to help them
36:43calm down?
36:44They're just crazy, right?
36:45These elite warriors,
36:46they train,
36:47they practice,
36:47and still,
36:48they panic.
36:49Navy Seals
36:50have to make themselves
36:51remember to breathe.
36:53In for four,
36:54hold for four,
36:55out for four,
36:56hold for four.
36:57It's called
36:58box breathing.
36:59Box has four sides.
37:00You just focus
37:00on the numbers
37:01and the sides,
37:02and that's it.
37:03Four by four.
37:04Do it with me.
37:04Come on.
37:05Let's build a box
37:06together right now.
37:11One, two, three, four,
37:16one, two, three, four,
37:17one, two, three, four,
37:20one, two, three, four,
37:25two, three, four,
37:32Do we have a-
37:33What the fuck
37:33did you say to my brother?
37:35Excuse me?
37:36Show up out of nowhere,
37:37get in his mind,
37:38say who the fuck knows what
37:39until suddenly he thinks
37:40he has no way out of-
37:42Oh, my God.
37:45Can I just-
37:47I was so sorry
37:49when I heard what happened.
37:50Why were you even there?
37:51Hmm?
37:52You didn't exist for Shane
37:53at school, and I know that.
37:54He never mentioned you once.
37:55To be fair, seeing it,
37:57the counselor is not always
37:59going to be something
37:59the student talks about
38:01at home, right?
38:03You're telling me
38:03he fucking came to see you?
38:06HIPAA requirements
38:06say I can't tell you anything.
38:08I'm sorry.
38:10But whether he did or didn't,
38:12with the student body
38:13of 600 kids
38:14being generally aware
38:16of all of them
38:17and their various
38:19struggles,
38:20yeah,
38:22that was my job.
38:24Why'd you go to the prison?
38:27To offer my support-
38:28No, I want to know
38:29what kind of apocalyptic
38:30shit you said to him.
38:31Besides that fucking
38:32Oliver St. Leger
38:33sees you for therapy,
38:34which is-
38:35I just don't really know
38:36how to wrap my mind
38:36around that, actually.
38:37So he told you that,
38:38but he didn't tell you
38:38what else we talked about?
38:39Okay, he's figuring things out.
38:40He's taking fucking classes
38:42and then here you are
38:43and a month later
38:43he kills himself.
38:47And you think
38:48talking to me
38:49had something to do with that?
38:51I do.
38:51And I think I have
38:52a lot of questions
38:53that I'm going to ask
38:54to whoever's responsible
38:55for you having a license
38:56to talk to anybody, okay?
38:57So just know
38:58that's what's going
38:59to be happening.
39:00Well, then maybe also ask them
39:01if they think someone
39:02without a baseline
39:02of mental instability
39:03and a history
39:04of emotional detachment
39:05in the home
39:06can be goaded into suicide
39:07by one casual conversation
39:09with a sympathetic
39:09relative stranger.
39:14Oh, this is such
39:15an awful thing.
39:17Look, I understand
39:20needing to explain
39:21it away somehow.
39:22But when an already
39:23mentally vulnerable person
39:25is put into such
39:26a challenging environment
39:28at an age where
39:29they're still struggling
39:31with coping skills
39:32and with the idea
39:32that the future
39:33even exists,
39:35not to mention
39:36a support system
39:36at home that just
39:37isn't up to the task
39:38in a real...
39:39Ah!
39:41Oh, my goodness.
39:42Fuck!
39:48So, as soon as court
39:50opens tomorrow,
39:51I'm going to file
39:52a temporary ex parte
39:53order of protection
39:54against you.
39:55And just to make it final...
39:57Fuck you!
39:57Okay!
40:11Did Mom go to sleep?
40:14She went to her room.
40:15Sure, she's not sleeping.
40:17Nobody sleeps in this house.
40:18Obviously.
40:20Okay.
40:23Okay.
40:26Okay.
40:30Talk show.
40:31Old movie.
40:32Infomercial.
40:33Where do you think
40:33Shane is now?
40:36Shit.
40:38I'm going to need
40:38a drink or ten
40:39for that conversation.
40:41Megan, I don't want
40:42to talk about heaven
40:43or whatever, okay?
40:45Because you don't think
40:46he's...
40:46If there is a place
40:47he is,
40:48I hope that everything
40:49makes sense to him.
40:51That he doesn't hurt
40:52anymore.
40:53Okay?
40:55Me too.
40:57Also, I wish
40:58it was a place like
40:59that for Mom to go.
41:03Yeah, I mean,
41:04Mom's still alive,
41:05but I get what
41:06you're saying.
41:10I saw him that night.
41:13What does that mean?
41:17Mom and Dad
41:17went to Holy Spirit
41:18Purse Bingo
41:19and he was supposed
41:20to come home
41:21after practice
41:22and make dinner.
41:24But he didn't.
41:26So I made it.
41:28And I saw him
41:29get dropped off
41:32by a car that I saw.
41:36Whose car it was.
41:41Okay, well,
41:41did Shane know this?
41:43Yes.
41:44When?
41:46Right when he came inside.
41:47Okay, what did he say?
41:49He said he was home
41:50the whole time.
41:51And he never asked you
41:51to say anything
41:52later to anybody
41:53ever?
41:56He thought he would.
41:59He was waiting,
42:01but he never did.
42:05Why didn't he want me to?
42:09You know what?
42:09Maybe he was
42:12afraid.
42:13Yeah.
42:14Of you bringing Oliver
42:16into it,
42:16of Oliver's family.
42:18of what they might do
42:19to us,
42:20to you.
42:20I mean,
42:21who knows?
42:23With people who can be
42:25what they are,
42:28you feel guilty
42:29for not saying
42:33don't.
42:34Okay?
42:36It wouldn't have made
42:37any difference.
42:38It still would have
42:39all happened
42:39the exact same way
42:41and you couldn't
42:41have stopped it.
42:42So please,
42:43please,
42:45don't let it
42:46derail your life.
42:49Okay?
42:51Okay?
42:52so please,
43:21Ms. Martin?
43:23One of them.
43:26Which one are you?
43:29Shiloh.
43:30Is your mom Christy? Is she here, too?
43:32She's not here at the moment.
43:34You live here with her.
43:36Rub it in, why don't you?
43:39So, you're Shane's sister.
43:42Hey, can I ask a question?
43:43Yes, we are here to ask people questions
43:46about a guy named Oliver St. Ledger.
43:48Specifically about the possible revenge killing
43:51of a guy named Oliver St. Ledger.
43:53We spoke to Annette Sparling.
43:54She gave us your address.
43:56Does your sister live here, too?
43:58Megan or Ciara Wise?
44:00Which one do you call her?
44:04Look, I don't know where Megan lives.
44:06Okay?
44:08I don't even know where she is.
44:11Or if she's ever coming back.
44:37I've just been sitting here watching you breathe.
44:43You're Megan?
44:45You're Shane's sister.
44:49Yeah.
44:56The day that Paul Sparling died,
45:00I saw you.
45:03And I knew that you were lying.
45:08But I was no one compared to you and your family.
45:15And there was nothing that I could do.
45:20And it just kept spinning out of control my whole life.
45:25Even so many years later, spinning out of control.
45:29And I wanted to hurt you.
45:33I really, really wanted to hurt you.
45:38And so I made a plan.
45:43But then I started to know you.
45:46And I saw...
45:48how lonely you were.
45:52That I didn't need to do anything to ruin your life
45:54because you were doing that on your own.
46:02I really wanted to tell you the truth.
46:07I've had so many opportunities to tell you the truth,
46:09and I didn't.
46:18I'm sorry.
46:24I am sorry.
46:25He was my best friend.
46:28And your brother,
46:29he didn't deserve that.
46:34Your brother didn't do anything.
46:36It was me.
46:41I know that.
46:45But I knew that.
46:51Thank you for saying that.
46:53Because I think I really needed
46:56you to say that to me.
47:05God, I'm so in love with you.
47:09I'm so in love with you.
47:11Yeah.
47:39I'm so in love with you.
47:41You're a Tom Petty fan, but if I hear another Tom Petty song
47:43in the next million years, it'll be too fucking soon.
47:47When was Tom Petty bothering you?
47:48When I was driving and you were sleeping,
47:50or when I was driving and you were sleeping?
47:56So do we think Megan Martin, slash, Sierra Wise,
48:01is somewhere in the world with or without Oliver Kennedy?
48:06Yeah, we don't know that.
48:08I said we think, not we know.
48:13But you do agree that that's the first road we should go down for?
48:15Okay, yeah, it's the first road, but it's not the only road.
48:18Oh, shit!
48:45You better watch what you say.
48:49You better watch what you do to me.
48:54Don't get carried away.
48:57Girl, if you can't do better than me, go, yeah, go, but remember,
49:10But love is hard to find

49:24When I found you
49:35You put a hand on my teeth
49:39And then you turn your eyes away
49:43If it don't feel complete
49:48If I don't take you all the way that goes
49:55Yeah, I'm old
49:58But remember
