00:00How does it feel being unclean?
00:01Well, I've taken a listen, people, and justices way.
00:05Please.
00:07Look, there's one in five minutes.
00:08In a few minutes, it's me, sir.
00:10Don't touch my daughter!
00:12Daughter?
00:12What in her to cry?
00:14Look, I don't know who you all are-
00:16To litigate this, okay? Here!
00:18Here's five grand, just let us-
00:21You know, you're kind of a milk.
00:23Last chance, let us go!
00:29She was supposed to defend me now-
00:31I will file contempt on you.
00:32I was gonna pay you millions.
00:35I don't care about the money, I care about justice.
00:39And I'm doing this pro bono.
00:46My case file?
00:49You were a victim of a horrible crime.
00:52Watch it, Pete!
00:54Whatever this woman chooses to wear, and how she chooses to act, is not an invitation for a rape.
01:03You're right.
01:04I haven't proven my case.
01:07Your Honor, I demand we stop this fraudulent trial.
01:13The people who lied to bring me down.
01:15Your Honor, I bring Dr. Finn to the stand.
01:19I'm Sam Maddock, and this is my 234th trial as an attorney.
01:24The justice's purpose is to punish criminals, not to catch innocent people in justice's wake.
01:31My client did not commit murder.
01:33It was self-defense, and justice demands you come to that same conclusion.
01:37On the charge of murder in a second degree, the jury finds the defendant...
01:45...not guilty.
01:51Miss Maddock, no matter how guilty your clients seem, you always win.
01:55How does it feel being undefeated?
01:56Well, I took an oath.
01:58Fighting for my clients as hard as I can, it's my duty.
02:02Miss Maddock, thank you for coming by.
02:05Well, I know you've been wanting to meet, but I've been in trial, and my daughter's pregnant.
02:09I did get that necklace that you sent me to give her, and it is so beautiful.
02:16It's called the Eye of the Pharaoh, and I hope she enjoys it.
02:19And I'm just glad you were able to make time for me.
02:20You're the best at what you do, and I need the best to defend my son.
02:26He was set up.
02:26I promise, he's innocent or rape.
02:28Please, I need the legendary, undefeated Sam Maddock to take my son's case.
02:35And if you do, and if you get him acquitted, I will pay you five million dollars cash.
02:44Well, how can I turn that down, right?
02:47That's what I like to hear.
02:49When trial's in a few hours, I'll send you the files.
02:52Okay, I guess we can make that.
02:54Deal.
02:56Don't forget to wire the five million.
02:58Sadie, how's the morning sickness?
03:00Mom, help, I'm being attacked!
03:02What?
03:02What?
03:03Don't touch my daughter!
03:05Sadie!
03:06Oh my God!
03:08What happened?
03:09Mom, that man attacked me!
03:12My daughter?
03:13What in her to fly?
03:14Look, I don't know who you all are, but I know that you are responsible, and I swear
03:19to God, I will make you pay-
03:20You're Radigan's son?
03:23Defendant in the rape case going to trial today?
03:25I can't believe I wasted my time defending him.
03:28How could a vicious animal like him be innocent?
03:31Yup!
03:32Well, I got news for you.
03:33It does.
03:35Because I'm your attorney.
03:39Last chance!
03:40Let us go!
03:41Sadie, give me your necklace.
03:47Your dad gave me this necklace to try to convince me to represent you.
03:51Give it back.
03:53Tell him I decline!
03:55Tell him I decline!
04:00Thank God your lawyer's here.
04:12And that's the Sam Maddock?
04:16Miss Maddock, I think you're at the wrong table.
04:19The defense is over here.
04:21Oh, I'm not defending your son.
04:24But his case is very personal to me, so I called in a favor.
04:27I'm actually acting as prosecutor now.
04:29And I'm gonna make sure that your son goes away for a very long time.
04:32I don't care about the money.
04:35I care about justice.
04:37And I'm doing this pro bono.
04:40I'm gonna make sure that this animal pays for what he did to you.
04:44I don't want your money.
04:47Justice is priceless.
04:49And I don't defend menaces to society like your son.
04:52An indiscretion?
04:54I don't know.
04:55How much money would you accept to side with the man who brutally attacked her daughter and then murdered her
05:00child?
05:01Your Honor, I'm Sam Maddock for the people on behalf of Jennifer White.
05:06An innocent young woman who was raped by this vile man.
05:12I'm here to make sure that he gets justice.
05:15I am angry.
05:16And I'm mourning.
05:18And I will never forgive your son for what he did to my family.
05:21And I will make sure that he pays for it for the rest of his life.
05:24Just wait.
05:26Just defend him against this rape charge.
05:27Once you get him acquitted, you can do whatever you want to him.
05:30I won't stop you.
05:30You can get your vengeance.
05:32The law is my vengeance.
05:37As you can see, the alleged victim willingly went into a private room with my client.
05:43She didn't resist or try to stop it.
05:45You can't seduce a man and then claim rape afterwards.
05:48No.
05:49That's not true.
05:50I didn't.
05:51It's all right there.
05:52That looks consensual to me.
05:54You tricked my daughter.
05:55She was drunk.
05:57You raped my baby girl.
06:00Order in the court.
06:01I will not tolerate any more outburst.
06:04Man, your daughter is an adult who can make her own choices.
06:08And as you can see, she made a very adult choice.
06:11Feeling shame the morning after does not mean you were raped.
06:16Mrs. Maddock.
06:18You were supposed to protect my daughter.
06:21Not sit and let a rapist win.
06:25Do something!
06:30I don't object.
06:32The video, it is accurate.
06:34I said that the video was accurate.
06:37Not that it proved that the defendant was innocent.
06:41The accuser and the defendant walked into a room together.
06:44But we don't know what happened in that room.
06:48I contend, she was raped.
06:50Objection.
06:52The defense is trying to smear the victim's name.
06:55I demand this testimony be heard in private so that the victim can remain anonymous.
07:02You are a victim of a horrible crime.
07:07You are going to be sticking up to rich and powerful men everywhere.
07:11You are going to be defending women from monsters like him.
07:15You are a hero.
07:16If you can just be brave for me, I promise you, I will make them pay.
07:23Okay?
07:25You can do it.
07:35I haven't proven my case.
07:40Yet.
07:44The prosecution calls Craig Gradigan to the stand.
07:48What?
07:49I just play it cool and admit nothing.
07:52You'll be home free by dinner.
07:54Got it?
07:55Okay.
07:59Shame about your daughter.
08:01You know, I heard she lost her baby because of what I did to her.
08:07Life's a bitch, huh?
08:11You claimed that you had never met the victim before.
08:16Jennifer, correct?
08:17Yup.
08:18That's right.
08:19I never raped her.
08:21I never even met her.
08:22You're such a liar!
08:25I'm confused.
08:27Because we just saw a video of you two at the club and your attorney said that the sex was
08:32consensual.
08:33So, I'll ask you again, in public, under oath, did you have sex with the victim?
08:42Your Honor, I have a signed affidavit from a drug dealer admitting that he sold Craig Radigan, GHB, a.k
08:52.a. the date rape drug, the night of the incident.
08:56And, I have a toxicology report right here.
09:01With Jennifer's blood showing GHB was in her system.
09:06The victim did not consent.
09:10She couldn't because you drugged her.
09:14The defendant, Craig Radigan, was released on bail under the conditions that he commit no further crimes.
09:22Yeah. Yeah. And I didn't do anything.
09:25But while out on bail, he committed a criminal offense.
09:32The victim was my daughter.
09:35She lost her unborn child, my grandchild.
09:40And she is still fighting for her life.
09:44All because of this menace to society, this predator.
09:50So, no. I amend that charge and I add one charge murder.
09:55What the fuck does that mean?
09:58That means that you won't be going to prison for five years.
10:02You won't be doing life like you fucking deserve.
10:07Court is adjourned.
10:08Court is adjourned.
10:08No!
10:09You won't take my cell!
10:11No!
10:11No!
10:12No!
10:12No!
10:13Thank you, my sister!
10:15No!
10:16No!
10:17No!
10:17No!
10:22Hello officers, uh, she actually just needs to rest right now, but you can come back later
10:27and...
10:28We're here for you, ma'am.
10:29A criminal charge has been filed, alleging you threatened witnesses and forged evidence
10:34for years.
10:35We're gonna have to go now.
10:38Mom, what's going on?
10:39Lock her up!
10:40Lock her up!
10:42Hey Sam Maddock, how does it feel being on the other side?
10:45An accused criminal instead of an attorney?
10:49My son, my innocent son, is in prison for life because of you.
10:56You're a vile woman.
10:57You're a monster in stilettos.
11:00This is karma.
11:02Now I hope that you get locked up.
11:04Lock her up!
11:06You're not gonna get away with this, babe.
11:08True.
11:09Who's threatening you?
11:10How big is corruption?
11:12He's making statements.
11:13He's making statements.
11:13He's making statements.
11:14He's stolen from innocent people!
11:21It's okay, Sadie.
11:23It's okay.
11:25Just leave town.
11:27Okay?
11:27Protect yourself.
11:28Just get out of here.
11:29No, I won't.
11:30I'm the only family you have left.
11:32I can't leave you.
11:34She should be here any minute.
11:37Where is Jessie?
11:39She promised she would be here to help my mom.
11:41Is she abandoning us?
11:42Your Honor, my paralegal, Jessie Winter, she's gonna be helping me.
11:47I'm not worried.
11:49Jessie was just gonna help me out.
11:51As you know, I'm a very experienced attorney, so I can actually handle this by myself.
11:56Remington.
11:57Founding partner at Remington Wild Coal.
11:59For the defendant, Sam Maddock.
12:02Paula Steenbergen, volunteering as co-counsel for Miss Maddock.
12:05I left my floor to defend the best lawyer I know, Sam Maddock.
12:09Jessie, how did you do it?
12:12Most lawyers in this city are in the pocket of Rupert Radigan.
12:16Or, too afraid to cross him.
12:19So I thought I'd have to do this alone.
12:21But they all started to reach out.
12:23Miss Maddock, you've been accused of using your career as an attorney for criminal means.
12:29How'd it begin?
12:30Well, in order to put myself through law school, I worked nights.
12:35And when I became an attorney, I worked pro bono to defend people who couldn't afford help with the justice
12:42system.
12:43Bullshit!
12:44Why'd you stop defending the poor?
12:45I was just 24.
12:49I'd just given birth to a beautiful baby girl, Sadie.
12:54When my husband, he was investigating a criminal organization.
12:59And he was murdered before the trial.
13:03The case, it still remains unsolved.
13:07I was just a single mom.
13:09I needed the money.
13:11And I was afraid that I was gonna become a target.
13:14I was a mother now.
13:16And honestly, I was just scared.
13:19I love you, Mom.
13:21The money wasn't for me.
13:23I used it to help the poor.
13:25And those who were left behind by the justice system.
13:28Nice work, Jessie.
13:30I learned from the best, ma'am.
13:31Is this true?
13:34I was trying to remain anonymous.
13:38But, yes, it's true.
13:41Pete, you shamelessly call her greedy and corrupt.
13:45But in truth, she's a real-life Robin Hood.
13:49Pete, don't you get it?
13:51I wasn't greedy.
13:53And it's not that I wasn't sharing the spoils with you.
13:56There were no spoils.
13:57I was using that money to help poor people.
14:01You were a poor kid.
14:03Who do you think paid your law school tuition?
14:08That was you?
14:10Miss Maddock, you're on trial for corruption and fraud.
14:13Not charity.
14:15I swear, I've never done anything illegal or immoral.
14:23Step down, Miss Maddock.
14:25Bailiff, bring in the first witness against her.
14:30Sam, do you have any idea who the witness is?
14:33I don't know.
14:37Oh, my son.
14:40Robbie.
14:41Objection!
14:42Turn this off!
14:43You're upsetting that poor boy's mother.
14:45Shut it off!
14:47No.
14:48I'm curious now.
14:49Hit play.
14:50Tell the judge I plead guilty.
14:52What?
14:53No, you're winning the case.
14:54I can win this for you.
14:55I can protect you.
14:56You don't know who these people are.
14:57If I don't take the fall, they're going to kill my mom.
15:00My son.
15:03He sacrificed himself for me.
15:14Yes, ma'am.
15:15Oh.
15:17I'm sorry.
15:20I didn't know.
15:21I blamed you.
15:23It's okay.
15:24I'm sorry.
15:25It's okay.
15:27Your Honor, I demand we stop this fraudulent trial.
15:33Miss Maddock, I'm sorry I doubted you.
15:36Your charity kept my family in our house.
15:39Thank you, Miss Maddock.
15:40You put my daughter through college.
15:42Thank you for fighting the good fight.
15:47How does it feel to be vindicated?
15:51All of you.
15:52When the deck was stacked against me and it was dangerous to side with me, you all fought for me.
15:59I will no longer represent the rich.
16:02From now on, I'm going to work for good, hard-working people like you.
16:06People that the justice system has forgotten about.
16:09The people who lied to bring me down did not succeed.
16:14Justice did.
16:15For too long, the rich and the powerful, they've acted with immunity.
16:20But I have a message for them.
16:23The law does apply to you.
16:25Okay.
16:34Ms. Maddock, you're our only hope.
16:39Sure.
16:40How can I help you?
16:42My name is Seneca Standing Rock.
16:45This is my daughter, Dakota.
16:47We saw you on TV.
16:49You said you wanted to bring down the criminals that run this city.
16:53They're our only hope.
16:55Please.
16:56Help you how?
16:57If you're in danger, we should just go to the police.
17:00The cops won't help.
17:01They're all in his pocket.
17:03Only you can help us now.
17:05But how?
17:06They're in whose pocket?
17:10The richest man in the city.
17:13I want you to help us sue Rupert Radigan and bring him down.
17:18Radigan wanted our sacred land to drill for our rare minerals.
17:24Those who refused to sell, he murdered.
17:27He stole our sacred land so that he could lay the foundations for his corrupt empire.
17:32He's not a businessman.
17:35He's a gangster.
17:37Ancestral land?
17:38This was 20 years ago?
17:41My husband was investigating that property at the time of his murder.
17:47Mr. Standing Rock, why did you wait 20 years to report this?
17:51We tried.
17:52No one cared.
17:53They think we're lying to smear a billionaire.
17:56Radigan left me with nothing and no one.
17:59In the white man's world, I'm invisible.
18:02I had given up hope.
18:04Until we saw you on TV, Miss Madoc.
18:07Our prayers had been answered.
18:09Rupert Radigan thinks that he can act with violence and he's above the law?
18:13Well, he's in for a surprise.
18:16We're gonna sue him and take him down.
18:23Sam, I'm amazed by how much dirt you've uncovered on Radigan in just a few days on this case.
18:28Yeah, well after representing scum like him for 20 years, I know all the tricks up their sleeve.
18:33We have to be very careful.
18:36I know what he's capable of when he's trying to protect his empire.
18:39He killed my husband.
18:42I don't want you to be seen with me, okay?
18:47Shit!
19:04Sam Madoc.
19:06Let me guess.
19:07You're upset that I got your son sentenced to life.
19:10I do admit it did cause me some indigestion.
19:13I have Tums in my bag.
19:16That's good.
19:20Rupert Radigan, you're on Instagram Live.
19:23Say hello to Miss Madoc's 11 million followers.
19:26I can't do this here, not publicly.
19:29You misunderstand.
19:31I'm simply here to invite you to dinner.
19:33Well, I'm gonna have to decline because, see, I have a really big case that I'm studying for.
19:39Hey!
19:40You have no case, Sam.
19:42So you're wasting your time and mine.
19:45Then why are you here if there's no case?
