00:00:0010 years, zero losses.
00:00:02Throughout your whole career, there was not a single case
00:00:05that she could not win.
00:00:07Let's give a warm round of applause
00:00:09to the Black Widow of the legal world, Vicki Sterling.
00:00:14Not only God would present to you the truth in this world.
00:00:18As far as I'm concerned, a lawyer should
00:00:21do whatever it takes to win the case.
00:00:26No, please, no, no, please.
00:00:29No, please, please, no, please.
00:00:34Dad?
00:00:37Dad, your timing really sucks.
00:00:39I was just-
00:00:42Idiot!
00:00:43Your whole case is hanging by a thread and you pull this shit
00:00:47with my secretary?
00:00:50Are you trying to spend the rest of your life in jail?
00:00:54Dad, you're the real estate king of the East Coast.
00:00:57That bitch that's trying to fucking sue me?
00:01:00No money, no power.
00:01:02Turning over the case for you is a piece of cake.
00:01:04That smug little attitude is exactly why the whole world is on her side right now!
00:01:13Mark, I managed to get Vicki Sterling assigned to your case.
00:01:17It's Sterling, the Black Widow.
00:01:20That's right.
00:01:21And that's why today you're going to go down to the courthouse at 4 pm,
00:01:25and you're going to keep your head down, and you're going to keep your mouth shut,
00:01:29and you're not going to do anything to piss Miss Sterling off.
00:01:33Yeah, Dad.
00:01:35I got it.
00:01:36Repeat it.
00:01:38You're not going to do anything to piss Vicki Sterling off,
00:01:42or you're going to spend the rest of your fucking life in jail!
00:01:47Okay, I'm not going to piss Sterling off, so I don't spend the rest of my life in jail!
00:01:55No, because if you fuck up again, I won't be able to do anything else to help you anymore.
00:02:03But I thought Sterling didn't take cases easily.
00:02:06How have you talked her into this?
00:02:07Her youngest son has ALS, and I'm the only one who can get a hold of her special medication.
00:02:14And, and I gave her the deep blue heart.
00:02:18The deep blue heart?
00:02:20That's the Moretti family heirloom.
00:02:25So this is the legendary deep blue heart.
00:02:29Mom, this birthday present is way too expensive.
00:02:31Did you take on some dangerous case again?
00:02:33Don't worry about me, sweetheart.
00:02:36Today is your 18th birthday.
00:02:38Your only job today is to enjoy the surprise.
00:02:41Mom, you don't have to work yourself to death for me and my brother.
00:02:45We just want you to relax a little.
00:02:47Yeah, Mom, all of those dangerous cases, you don't have to take them.
00:02:52Oh, you silly kids.
00:02:54For you two, I really don't mind a bit of exhaustion.
00:02:57Ma'am, Moretti's hearing starts in two hours.
00:03:00We should head out.
00:03:00All right, got it.
00:03:01Okay, my darlings.
00:03:03I gotta go.
00:03:04Bye.
00:03:05Bye.
00:03:05Bye, Mom.
00:03:07Jeez, don't worry.
00:03:09Let me take some pictures for you.
00:03:11Okay.
00:03:18Boss, relax.
00:03:19Mr. Harrison locked in Sterling for you, right?
00:03:22With her in your case, you are untouchable.
00:03:24Untouchable?
00:03:24The whole internet is watching my little scandal.
00:03:27My dad's so pissed he knew he skinned me alive.
00:03:29Fuck it, let's eat.
00:03:30Oh, it's so beautiful.
00:03:35Well, well.
00:03:37Looks like the paparazzi these days are fearless.
00:03:41What are you doing?
00:03:46Oh, look.
00:03:48A cripple.
00:03:52You've got guts, kid.
00:03:53Follow me in here for this shot.
00:03:55Get off me.
00:03:56I let you little paparazzi rats run wild for too long.
00:04:00No, sir, sir.
00:04:01You've got it all wrong.
00:04:02He wasn't taking photos of you.
00:04:04He was taking photos for me.
00:04:06Look.
00:04:09If you don't believe me, just check for yourself.
00:04:16Well, look here.
00:04:19I'm misunderstanding.
00:04:20Here.
00:04:22Let me apologize.
00:04:27Those dead legs are an eyesore.
00:04:30This place should put up a sign.
00:04:31No cripples, no strays.
00:04:34Come on, we're eating somewhere else.
00:04:40Sir, you owe me an apology.
00:04:48What did you just say?
00:04:49I said you should apologize to me.
00:05:01Sure.
00:05:12You bastards, what are you doing?
00:05:14Sorry, sweetheart.
00:05:15That's just how I apologize.
00:05:18Show him we mean it.
00:05:20No, no, no, stop it!
00:05:22Stop it, you jerk.
00:05:23Stop, stop it, you jerk!
00:05:25Stop it!
00:05:26Ah!
00:05:52Mom, Pop, we're at Sky Realm Restaurant.
00:05:56Let's sit at me.
00:06:02We want justice!
00:06:05We want justice!
00:06:07We want justice!
00:06:10We want justice!
00:06:12Mr. Sterling, finally.
00:06:14These brain-dead peasants are trying to destroy my son's future.
00:06:18Mr. Sterling, here's the material about this case.
00:06:22About your son's medication, the experimental treatment.
00:06:26I've arranged everything.
00:06:28Well, as long as your son is innocent, I guarantee a whim.
00:06:31Innocent? Sure.
00:06:33I'm going to head inside.
00:06:39Wait!
00:06:41My kids are in trouble and I need to get to Lexington Avenue now.
00:06:44Um, you go ahead and prep for the hearing and I'll be back before it starts.
00:06:49Yes, ma'am.
00:06:51Oh, sweetheart.
00:06:53You're just my type.
00:06:55Let go of me, you animal!
00:06:57Get out of my...
00:06:58He's there!
00:07:05Stop.
00:07:09Is that the deep blue heart?
00:07:11Don't tell me they're connected to Sterling.
00:07:15Isn't it the blue deep heart that your dad gave Sterling?
00:07:20Where did you get this?
00:07:22Give it back. My mom gave that to me.
00:07:24You're lying. The heart of the deep is the Moretti family heirloom.
00:07:27Your kind could never afford it. This must be a fate.
00:07:30So that's the story.
00:07:32Sweetheart, there's no point in wearing cheap replicas.
00:07:35But if you play nice with me, I can buy you a real one.
00:07:38Dream on, scum.
00:07:39You still don't get it!
00:07:43You bastard!
00:07:45Let go of my sister!
00:07:53Seems like the first time wasn't enough.
00:07:55Don't hold back.
00:07:56No, no, no, no! Please stop!
00:07:58His condition is serious. He won't survive it.
00:08:01Pathetic little beauty.
00:08:04It's your birthday.
00:08:08I'll tell you what.
00:08:10I'll let the cripple go.
00:08:12If you get down on your knees and lick my shoe clean.
00:08:18Happy birthday.
00:08:24Why isn't she picking up?
00:08:27How much longer?
00:08:28Cross this intersection and we'll be right there, man.
00:08:33What are you waiting for, sweetheart?
00:08:35Go on.
00:08:37You're insane!
00:08:38I have legal rights! You can't just do this!
00:08:41Legal rights? Tell her who I am.
00:08:43Boss is the only son of Moretti family.
00:08:46East Coast real estate royalty.
00:08:47If he snaps his fingers, the best lawyers in the country will rewrite the law for him.
00:08:52Moretti family?
00:08:53You hear that, sweetheart?
00:08:54You want to keep lecturing me about the law?
00:08:57I wish I had another little chat with your crippled brother.
00:09:02No, no, no, no! I, I...
00:09:05Don't do it.

00:40:45professor wilson
00:40:48he's been retired for years

00:40:55mr moretti said he bought every lawyer in new york
00:40:58how is this possible
00:41:01oh my god that's edward wilson the so-called godfather of the legal world
00:41:05he's been retired for years why would he
00:41:07and annie hawthorne she never touches corporate litigation
00:41:10she's a public interest legend
00:41:12why would she defend uh sterling
00:41:15miss sterling looks admitted just in time
00:41:17william did you bring all of these lawyers here
00:41:21no these are the true legal voices of new york
00:41:24you don't just bring them they came for justice
00:41:27they came for you thank you all so much for being so willing to stand behind me i really
00:41:32appreciate it i am gonna have to ask you to withdraw though
00:41:37no why would you say that miss sterling i guess you're worried we'll be dragged down
00:41:42by the moretti family's influence aren't you yes this case is backed by a very evil and
00:41:48powerful entity and they erase anyone that stands in their way i can't ask any of you to
00:41:53get caught up in their fury and their retaliation i need you to leave
00:41:57i am not leaving i want to see by my own eyes whether power and money get to decide what's
00:42:04right
00:42:05and what's wrong whether a lawyer who stands for justice and be crushed like a bug
00:42:11that's right we're not leaving
00:42:13we're not leaving we're not leaving we're not leaving we're not leaving
00:42:24professor peter you are the plaintiff's counsel that's right professor you taught me to always
00:42:32stand on the side of justice so why are you defending a monster now listen very carefully
00:42:39she is not a monster vicky sterling in my view is the finest lawyer in all of new york professor
00:42:47i
00:42:47don't understand what you're talking about do you remember the first case i taught you the charles
00:42:53solicited evidence case like 20 years ago oh i know that one officer charles he was notorious for
00:43:00violent arrests i heard he even set up a poor kid named lauren right i heard the supreme court created
00:43:06a
00:43:06new rule because of that case and the lawyer who defended that kid was just some nobody back then
00:43:12lauren had zero criminal intent he was framed everyone thought he was doomed but that rookie
00:43:18lawyer stood alone against the entire system and won an acquittal and that rookie lawyer was vicky
00:43:25sterling what what so you're saying the woman everyone's calling a monster was that tricky lawyer
00:43:36impossible vicky sterling only entered the field 10 years ago how could she work a case from 20 years ago
00:43:44that makes no sense on the contrary absolutely that is why she is so extraordinary the people know the
00:43:56case but they do not know that the dirty cop was backed by one of the most powerful real estate
00:44:04syndicates
00:44:05in new york they threatened her life but she didn't back down she won the case and then she had
00:44:14to disappear
00:44:14for 10 years mom moved us from place to place for years so that's why sarah you and paul never
00:44:25had a
00:44:25normal or stable childhood that was all my fault i mean your father no it's not you told us something
00:44:34had to be done by someone paul and i think you're a superhero always be proud of you
00:44:42my god she risked her life in her family's safety for a stranger if this is true then mrs
00:44:48uh sterling is really the best lawyer in new york enough one good act doesn't wipe out what she's
00:44:55done i've worked on a vicky sterling for five years she's protected the rich and pocketed massive amount
00:45:02of fees she's let criminals walk free she's destroyed family's lives
00:45:10she's destroyed family's lives you're lying my mom would never do anything like that
00:45:16your honor as vicky sterling's closest formal student i've seen every case she has handled
00:45:22so i testify that she repeatedly abused her power she twisted the law and she left a disaster she
00:45:30deserves to be punished that's a lie your honor i've worked closely with miss sterling for more than 10
00:45:35years i can personally testify that none of that is true she has always respect the law and uphold due
00:45:41process exactly miss sterling risked your own life and your family's safety to defend the stranger
00:45:47why would someone like this suddenly abandon her safety so what she did something good 20 years ago
00:45:54that doesn't mean she's good now she cannot erase the crime she's committed that's right sterling destroyed
00:46:01my family my husband died because of her maybe she became greedy after fighting the powerful all those
00:46:07years ago people like her are worse than criminals silence everyone sits down
00:46:16your honor everything that defense presented today is irrelevant whatever she did 20 years ago has
00:46:23nothing to do with the crime she committed today if 20 years of integrity are not enough to prove her
00:46:30character then what about the last 10 what are you implying i'm sure you've all heard of the dawn foundation
00:46:38new york's biggest charity organization the anonymous founder miss wicki sterling
00:46:51the dawn foundation's reach covers the entire east coast say thousands of families what happened back then
00:46:57changed her yes but it didn't break her she found other ways to fight for justice quietly from the shadows
00:47:07these are miss sterling's donation records yet she charged high legal fees but she donated over 90
00:47:13percent of her income to dawn it across 10 years at the total of 800 million dollars
00:47:21this sterling understood that fighting absolute power alone would only risk more innocent lives
00:47:30the dawn foundation i remember a small town near new york that was wiped out by floods the dawn founded
00:47:36other settlements three years ago when my husband passed i couldn't afford to raise my kids i was going
00:47:42to give them up dawn stepped in and covered their schooling so sterling's high fees were just a way to
00:47:48help
00:47:49more people more people did we blame her wrong your honor this record proves vicki sterling's integrity
00:47:54beyond question a woman who donates nearly everything she earns is not driven by greed and she would
00:48:00never betray her principles for profit
00:48:04i thought sterling was just another greedy lawyer but she had donated everything she had no reason to
00:48:10hurt anyone hard to believe that black widow of the legal world is actually that good
00:48:15mom mom you did all of this in secret we believe you everyone here believes you're innocent they'll clear
00:48:23your name but sarah there are things that i've done that are truly wrong so what if she founded a
00:48:31charity
00:48:32your honor objection these so-called good deeds doesn't prove her innocence objection sustained defense
00:48:41counsel you know it you must present direct evidence
00:48:50is there anything
00:48:58see if she were innocent they wouldn't have showed up empty-handed vicki sterling is exactly what i said
00:49:05she is a corrupt ruthless parasite enough you keep on choosing the best illness guilty where's your
00:49:12evidence oh i have evidence your honor the prosecution formally requests to call our most important witnesses
00:49:22please
00:49:27murderer she's the one who killed my father
00:49:33order plaintiff counsel please identify your witness your honor this is our key witness
00:49:40nina daughter of the defendant in the hank murder case the hank case i remember that it was the
00:49:47biggest wrongful conviction scandal five years ago all the evidence favored hank he was this close to
00:49:52acquittal yeah but out of nowhere during the final hearing he confessed everyone said he must have been
00:49:57threatened by someone powerful behind the scenes your honor the attorney who represented the plaintiff
00:50:04against hank was vicki sterling we now accuse her of abusing the justice system and forcing an
00:50:11innocent man into a wrongful verdict witness you can go with your testimony five years ago i was eight
00:50:19right before hearing dad promised me that he didn't kill anyone that he did win but during recess
00:50:26i saw him kneeling on the ground begging that monster everyone said he would win but after
00:50:32meeting her he confessed to murder he killed my father he made me an orphan through our investigation we
00:50:40discovered miss sterling's client in that case was begged by a powerful real estate taker we have every reason to
00:50:48believe she used intimidation and violence to force hank into a false confession just to protect the rich
00:50:54vicki sterling you destroyed an innocent life you left a little girl without a father aren't you afraid
00:51:01you're burning hell for what you've done
00:51:06my god she was only eight her father gone because of a wrongful conviction it's so heartbreaking i knew it
00:51:13this woman was never a good person she got my husband killed now we find out she got the girl's
00:51:19father killed too and to think i almost believed her earlier she's nothing but a butcher hiding behind
00:51:25a charity mask no my mom wouldn't do that tell them tell them the truth tell them you didn't do
00:51:33this
00:51:34no sarah it was my fault what happened back then happened because of me
00:51:42she admitted it so it was true dad after all these years the monster finally been confessed
00:51:51your honor the defendant vicki sterling just admitted guilt in open court objection
00:51:57mr was only expressing remorse and not admitting any actual crimes you must stop making up words and
00:52:04fabricate confession oh please william you're still defending her even she admits it your honor
00:52:10i request an immediate recess your honor i can prove that my client vicki sterling has not committed
00:52:19any crime whatsoever her belief that she is guilty is based on her extraordinary sense of responsibility
00:52:30defense counsel you claim your client is innocent but i will repeat it again where's the evidence i do
00:52:38have evidence but before that i would ask your honor permission to cross-reference the witness witness
00:52:45are you able to continue answering questions you can proceed so please describe again what you really saw
00:52:53during recess those five years ago i saw my father kneeling on the ground begging this monster he was
00:53:01hurt and it looks like he's begging her isn't that obvious sterling must have used violence she threatened
00:53:08hank into confessing just to clarify you did not really hear their conversation and you did not really
00:53:17see vicki sterling strike your father objection your honor the defense is leading the witness i demand that
00:53:28the questioning stops immediately objection sustained defense counsel stop this line of questioning the court needs
00:53:36direct evidence i if you had evidence you would have presented it already it's been five years there's no way
00:53:43you
00:53:43found anything you're right about one point time erodes evidence then stop wasting the court's time
00:53:50again your honor i request an immediate recess your honor wait i do have evidence
00:54:00here it is this contains a video footage of what happened that day actually five years ago impossible
00:54:09after all these years there was never any video evidence this has to be fake it really was difficult to
00:54:17recover anything from that day but eventually we found a car parked nearby so this footage is from its dash
00:54:24cam
00:54:28the evidence is verified play the video
00:54:31i don't know what's going to happen
00:54:35it's enough in court you would better please go otherwise your sweet little daughter
00:54:41will not be sober okay don't don't hurt her i'll plead guilty i'll limit anything stop or i'll call the
00:54:47police
00:54:49god are you okay yeah actually the evidence favors you i'm gonna lose today
00:54:54you know i'll declare myself guilty in court you must win
00:55:01dad so he confessed to protect me how how could this be what really happened back then tell me the
00:55:08truth
00:55:12what really happened back then tell me the truth certainly your father was innocent and his case was
00:55:20clear-cut the victim died from a fall due to violations at that construction site but the
00:55:26plaintiff in an attempt to avoid liability they framed your father because he was the only other
00:55:32worker there at the time of the accident i was prepared to lose the trial that day
00:55:39but he did not want to risk your safety so he chose to sacrifice himself
00:55:47you knew he was innocent and yet you let him get life in prison i did try to stop him
00:55:58but he did not
00:55:59want to risk your safety not for a single moment that's why he chose to sacrifice his own freedom
00:56:05and i also learned 20 years ago the challenging absolute power head-on can only lead to more
00:56:13destruction i had no choice so that's the truth dad went to the construction side because he wanted
00:56:20extra money to buy me birthday present it's all my fault i'm the one who killed my dad
00:56:27your honor the evidence clearly shows client has committed desperate attempt to protect his daughter
00:56:35from beginning to the end vicky sterling committed no crime at all the defense
00:56:41moves to dismiss all the plaintiff's accusations in its entirety
00:56:50this truth i i can't believe it sterling wasn't the villain it was the power crushing people at the
00:56:55bottom and she's been fighting for them this whole time she founded a charity just to help people who
00:57:00needed it most we really blamed her for nothing enough one win doesn't erase 10 years of doubt so are
00:57:07you
00:57:07saying that every single case that she's handled she was innocent i can prove that my client is
00:57:13innocent i have more evidence and so do i your honor with all the evidence we have here vicky
00:57:20sterling has committed no crime she's always upheld the law respected due process and devoted her entire
00:57:26life to justice she is the best attorney in new york all these years i never knew someone was fighting
00:57:36for justice in the shadows miss sterling you're the kind of lawyer we all aspire to be
00:57:44oh no this can't be happening mr ready will destroy me your honor i have one last submission to make
00:57:53i'm formally accusing plaintiff vera cross to be held fully accountable of stealing our law from steel
00:57:58and fabricating evidence this is a severe violation of the state law and legal ethics therefore i request
00:58:06vera cross to be held fully accountable
00:58:13god i'm finished
00:58:21the court will now announce the verdict please all rise

01:09:57plaintiff's council please present your case your honor my client and their families lived on hayden
01:10:05estate for generations 20 years ago the moretti family tried to take that land by force it was a
01:10:12brutal act of plunder and we are seeking full legal accountability
01:10:21just as i said they have no real evidence all they can allege is forced land seizure
01:10:26no no someone cut it hayden estate is my biggest asset i cannot afford to lose it trust me on
01:10:32this one
01:10:35your honor opposing counsel claims my client took their land by force but i can prove that hayden
01:10:42estate was willingly gifted to the moretti family please look closely hayden estate was voluntarily
01:10:48signed over by these farmers themselves lies my family lived there for generations why would we
01:10:55just give it away exactly giving up ancestral land for free defies common sense and conveniently
01:11:03everyone who signed that supposed contract has been missing for 20 years your honor
01:11:09i have reason to believe that this supposed agreement was obtained through coercion and worse
01:11:17nonsense developing hayden estate was an act of charity i gave those people jobs i fed their
01:11:25families the missing farmers i don't know anything about that your opposing counsel has yet to provide
01:11:33any concrete evidence i asked the court to stop these baseless speculations that's a fair objection plaintiff's
01:11:40counsel i heard many of your arguments but the court needs direct evidence
01:11:49your honor since the opposing counsel can present a single piece of evidence may i conclude that she and
01:11:56these farmers are deliberately defaming my client i ask that you sanction them accordingly what do we do it's
01:12:05been 20 years we've never found any solid evidence and mrs sterling only took this case three days ago does
