00:30I was having a think of, and I...
00:32Do you think I could have a little word with the judge?
00:34Paddy.
00:34No, no, no. It's just so that you can instruct the jury
00:36to ignore everything that Simmel said.
00:39We called Simon Clarke as a witness.
00:41We can't change our minds because we didn't like what he said.
00:43Yeah, we shouldn't have asked him. He was never bears my head.
00:46Hopefully your dad can push back on allegations of favouritism.
00:49Did you speak to him?
00:50Yeah, we met first thing.
00:52Now, his councillor Lucy's up first, so we'll have time to bed in.
00:55How did he take you when you told him he had to testify?
00:58I've been terrified.
00:59But he understands why.
01:01Yeah, of course he does. He knows it's going bad.
01:02Sweetheart, Paddy.
01:03There's no point pretending, is there?
01:05Sounds dead suspicious when they lay it all out,
01:07having kept to midden and...
01:08Come on, maybe when the jury actually hear him speak,
01:12they'll understand how fragile he was.
01:14Yeah.
01:15Or he could bury us all.
01:19I swear by almighty God that the evidence I shall give
01:22shall be the truth, the whole truth...
01:24Honey said it happened to her that she was groomed too.
01:28Really?
01:29What was your opinion of Mr. Halston after that first meeting?
01:33That he had been groomed by Ray Walters
01:35to normalise the extreme conditions he was surviving under.
01:39The way he described the relationship flagged all the classic signs.
01:44Psychological manipulation, isolation of the victim.
01:47It's a highly complex relationship between victim and abuser.
01:51Fear can get mixed up with dependence, loyalty, confusion.
01:58But he was absolutely aware of what Ray was capable of.
02:02So when Mr. Walters turned on his loved ones on the day of his death,
02:07what do you think Mr. Halston's reaction might have been?
02:09Objection. Calls for speculation.
02:12I'm asking Miss Hayes for her professional opinion.
02:14You may answer the question.
02:16I think the extreme violence that Bear had seen Ray inflict on his fellow workers,
02:22coupled with the power that Ray had over him,
02:25would have heightened his perception of any threat.
02:28So in your professional opinion,
02:30do you believe Mr. Halston feared for his life?
02:34Yes. Absolutely.
02:37Can't argue with that.
02:38Thank you, Miss Hayes. No further questions.
02:41Dad.
02:43You're wrong.
03:04I swear by Almighty God
03:06that the evidence I shall give
03:08shall be the truth,
03:10the whole truth,
03:12and nothing but the truth.
03:15I came in the back door.
03:20Ray was standing over someone.
03:22The lad, Dylan,
03:25said he was killing him.
03:28Then I realised
03:30it was Paddy on the floor.
03:33What did you do?
03:35Ray told me to go,
03:37wait outside.
03:38I always did what he said.
03:42But I could see that
03:44Ray had the hammer
03:45and he was about to smash it down on Paddy,
03:47so I grabbed him.
03:50You grabbed Mr. Walters?
03:52I had to.
03:52What did Mr. Walters do?
03:54He shouted at me to get off.
03:57Said that
03:58Paddy and Dylan didn't care about me.
04:00that he were more like my son.
04:04But I, I, I, I knew that were,
04:08that were wrong.
04:10Did you have a plan
04:12in that moment?
04:13No, I just wanted him to stop talking.
04:16I,
04:18I couldn't think.
04:20Were you aware of Mr. Dingle
04:22telling you to release him?
04:24No.
04:24Did you realise that Mr. Walters
04:27was getting weaker?
04:28That he was struggling to breathe?
04:30No.
04:31Why not?
04:32Dunno.
04:34I didn't really know
04:35what were happening.
04:36There was just all this
04:38noise.
04:41But I knew
04:42that I'd, I'd started it.
04:45Started what?
04:47That turned on Ray.
04:50The bottle.
04:52I knew that if
04:53I let him go
04:56that he were going to kill me.
04:59I, I didn't mean to kill him.
05:01No, I, I didn't.
05:03We tried to bring him back
05:04the kiss of life
05:05but it, it, it, it were too late.
05:07He, he,
05:09he were gone.
05:12Did you think about calling an ambulance?
05:15Did you hear Mr. Penders
05:17and Mr. Dingle discussing it?
05:18Yeah, you, you were already dead.
05:22I held his hand
05:25and I told him
05:26I was sorry
05:27because I, I never meant
05:29to kill him.
05:33He, were, were
05:34the boss, my friend.
05:37He were good to me
05:38when he found me
05:39all them months ago.
05:40He, he gave me a job
05:42and I don't know
05:44what I would have done
05:45without him.
05:49Mr. Halston.
05:53I didn't know about
05:54the grooming.
05:56I didn't know that, but
06:01thank you, Mr. Halston.
06:03We'll leave that there.
06:04Bear.
06:04I'm sorry.
06:07I'm sorry.
06:33I'm sorry.
06:34How was that?
06:35I were,
06:37I were groomed.
06:39Who told you that?
06:40Your son?
06:41The counsellor who was found
06:43for you?
06:45Aye.
06:51I think Mr. Walters
06:52and Ms. Daniels
06:53groomed plenty of victims.
06:55But you weren't one of them.
06:58Eh?
06:58That is ridiculous.
07:00You were paid by Ray Walters
07:02into a bank account
07:03in your name.
07:04According to Simon Clark,
07:05you were a vital
07:06and willing part
07:06of the organisation.
07:08No.
07:08Mr. Walters trusted you.
07:09He was never a threat
07:10to your life.
07:11No.
07:11You saw an opportunity
07:12to kill Ray Walters
07:13and you took it.
07:14To step into his shoes.
07:16To become top dog
07:17now that Celia Daniels
07:18was also dead.
07:19No, I would never.
07:20As a former wrestler,
07:20you possessed the skill
07:21and knowledge.
07:22I didn't.
07:23They're an accident.
07:25Anything else is a lie.
07:26Mr. Halston,
07:27please restrain yourself.
07:29But he's lying!
07:36This is awful.
07:38He was never
07:39supposed to speak.
07:42You said to the police
07:44during your interview
07:45on the 16th of March...
07:48Hang in there, Bear.
07:49I killed Ray
07:51and I'd do it again.
07:53If that were wrong,
07:56I was trying to protect
07:57Paddy and Dylan.
07:58Because they helped you
07:59cover up a murder?
08:01No.
08:02No, you don't understand.
08:04I understand the law,
08:05Mr. Halston.
08:06No, I treated Ray
08:08like a son.
08:10But I had my own son,
08:12you see.
08:14And even though Ray said
08:15that Paddy didn't care
08:16where I were,
08:18that he'd never called
08:19told or messaged,
08:22I should never have believed him.
08:24You're saying Mr. Walters lied to you?
08:26No.
08:27That's what he did.
08:29He said whatever he needed
08:30to control you.
08:32Well, with Anya,
08:34it were immigration.
08:35Anya?
08:37Well,
08:38but she were braver
08:39than I were.
08:40She escaped
08:41until Ray
08:43found her,
08:45beat her up.
08:47Even then,
08:48I thought it were
08:49outsiders out of it
08:50and not him.
08:52Anya Berisha,
08:53is this the young woman
08:54Simon Clark
08:55said you buried?
08:56He threw her
08:57in a feed shed.
09:00She needed
09:00a proper funeral.
09:02I think we're
09:03straying from the subject.
09:04I should have helped her.
09:06Found a doctor in my sin,
09:08but I let her down.
09:10Mr. Halsey?
09:11And then when I saw Ray
09:12standing over Paddy,
09:14I couldn't let it happen again.
09:17He weren't gonna hurt
09:18another person I loved.
09:20I didn't mean to kill him.
09:22I mean,
09:23I've never taken anybody's life.
09:24It's awful,
09:24but it stays in your head,
09:27the guilt.
09:29But I did it for my son.
09:31And if I hadn't,
09:33he'd have finished me,
09:34then he'd have gone on
09:35to Paddy and Dylan.
09:37And none of us
09:38would be here today.
09:42Thank you, Mr. Halsey.
09:45That is the case
09:46for the prosecution.
09:53Oh, Bear.
09:56Can't do anything else, no.
10:00Are you okay?
10:01Ray was even more
10:03a monster than I thought.
10:05Do you want to wait
10:06outside with Mandy?
10:08No, I'm gonna stay.
10:10Members of the jury,
10:12it is now your responsibility
10:13to consider the evidence
10:15and reach a verdict.
10:17Please retire to the jury room
10:19to begin your deliberations.
10:21All rise.
10:30Thank you, Mr. Halsey.
10:31Thank you, Mr. Halsey.
10:33Thank you, Mr. Halsey.
10:35Thank you, Mr. Halsey.
10:35Thank you, Mr. Halsey.
10:36Thank you, Mr. Halsey.
10:37Thank you, Mr. Halsey.
10:38Thank you, Mr. Halsey.
10:39Thank you, Mr. Halsey.
10:39Thank you, Mr. Halsey.
10:40Thank you, Mr. Halsey.
10:40Thank you, Mr. Halsey.
10:41Thank you, Mr. Halsey.
10:42Thank you, Mr. Halsey.
10:43Thank you, Mr. Halsey.
10:47Thank you, Mr. Halsey.
11:00All rise.
11:10Members of the duel,
11:11you were asked to reach a majority decision
11:14on the verdicts of the three defendants before you.
11:18I will remind the court
11:19that you were required to treat each case separately,
11:24despite them being connected.
11:26Have you reached verdicts on each of the defendants
11:28on which you are all agreed?
11:29We have.
11:32How do you find the defendant?
11:36Not guilty.
11:39How do you find the defendant?
11:42Not guilty.
11:46How do you find the defendant?
11:48Guilty.
12:19Just feels weird.
12:20Never thought we'd get different.
12:21I still don't understand it.
12:24You did really well, though, April.
12:25Really well.
12:26Talking about rage, trying to kill me and that.
12:29Reckon I've got you to thank.
12:32What am I going to do now, eh?
12:34Now I'm free.
12:37Take you out, of course.
12:38Oh, Paddy's here.
12:39I've got to go.
12:40You don't need to do that.
12:42It's only April and I'm meeting her later, aren't you?
12:44Bet she's over the moon, isn't she?
12:47Yeah.
12:49Dylan.
12:52You've done so well, you know.
12:54You've been so strong.
12:54Paddy.
12:57I'm sorry you got dragged into it.
12:58You don't have to keep saying that, all right?
13:01I got found not guilty, so I'm all good.
13:03And that's exactly how it should be.
13:06What Ray put you through, you deserve to just...
13:09go and live your life now.
13:13We should have all got off, Paddy.
13:19Chas?
13:21She knows.
13:22I put you a spake into Dylan.
13:24How's he feeling?
13:25Happy.
13:26But he said he feels kind of weird, too.
13:28Yeah.
13:31I bet he does.
13:34Proper saying, the shine of.
13:35Oh, why not?
13:36Well, they should have all been cleared.
13:38Then we could have at least let ourselves have a moment.
13:40It feels like we're all owed that.
13:41Yeah.
13:43You did so well, love.
13:45That's what Dylan said.
13:47It's over now, April.
13:49The threats, the control.
13:52Your future belongs to you again.
13:55But it isn't over, is it?
13:57Because there were two not-guilties and there should have been three.
14:04You stood up and you told the truth.
14:06Exactly what happened.
14:08And that's all we could do.
14:10It was up to the jury to listen and to understand, but, you know, a man died.
14:20And even though he was evil and he was cruel, someone had to be held accountable for that.
14:26Yeah, but it shouldn't have been you.
14:27I don't understand.
14:29I'm all right.
14:30I mean, you got guilty and me and Dylan walked free.
14:33I was the one that killed him.
14:35I was prepared for it to be me, all three of us, but equal.
14:39But when they singled you out...
14:42Dad, it's a suspended sentence.
14:45It's 12 months held over for two years.
14:47I can go and see Eve.
14:49I can take her to school.
14:51I can read her a story.
14:51I can do all those little things that I didn't think I'd be able to do.
14:57And you're back.
14:59And that's just the best.
15:00It's brilliant.
15:01I just wish I could take your place.
15:03No!
15:06This is why I was worried.
15:08This is why I told the police it were all on me.
15:10I know.
15:10I just didn't want you to suffer some.
15:13I mean, your job, your family.
15:15You're so much at stake.
15:16Dad, I'm not suffering.
15:18Look, I'm here.
15:20I'm free.
15:22Well, spoil it by feeling guilty.
15:24Let's see.
15:37Hey.
15:42That must have been tough.
15:43Yeah.
15:44Listening to Bear, you know, and April and Dylan.
15:47Hearing it all over again.
15:50It just makes me feel so stupidly oblivious.
15:54You couldn't have known.
15:55We didn't with April.
16:01Sorry about Paddy.
16:03I know he's your best friend.
16:05It's a suspended sentence.
16:07Yeah, 12 months.
16:08He won't serve it.
16:09I mean, he's as good as free.
16:10Yeah, well, I hope he sees it like that.
16:17Thanks.
16:19How's Laurel doing?
16:22She's getting there.
16:24Is Paddy coming or what?
16:26Well, I think he must have heard his dad and Dylan.
16:28They just said they needed a bit more time.
16:30How's he feeling?
16:31I mean, it's still a criminal conviction.
16:33And if I know Paddy, he's not going to just shrug it off.
16:36It'll be a really big deal.
16:38Hmm.
16:38Certainly, professionally.
16:40When is the vet panel hearing?
16:42Soon.
16:43I'm not exactly sure when.
16:44It's like being on trial again.
16:45Yeah.
16:46You could have done with a better outcome.
16:49Step at a time, eh?
16:51Well, I don't think that's what Paddy's worried about, to be honest.
16:54Of course.
16:55You know, it's his dad.
16:56But all he wants is for him to be happy and well.
17:05This is where we buried Annie.
17:11She was only young, but she could see it so much clearer than I did.
17:19Modern slavery.
17:20That's what they call it.
17:22Yeah.
17:22I wish I had realized, but you don't.
17:28All them farms.
17:31Workers in vans.
17:34Setting off before sunup.
17:36Getting back after dark.
17:39Barbershops.
17:41Nail bars.
17:44When you're all alone, see,
17:47and someone comes along and is kind,
17:50and they're going to give you a chance
17:53when you've given up on yourself.
17:56It does.
17:57Well, you want to be saved.
18:00So this is it.
18:04This is you.
18:06Full bed and board as promised.
18:10But with that kindness comes confusion.
18:15Because you could help someone.
18:20But you'll be hurting them as well.
18:26A sip of water.
18:32Lay back.
18:33I said I'd look after you.
18:35And I will.
18:36You're just lumped together with
18:39other folk the same as you.
18:43And you start to feel like family
18:46could be a worse life.
18:48That's what you think.
18:52Only...
18:52not everyone lasts a distance.
18:57I said I'm protective.
19:00I didn't do very well, Kadella.
19:04I didn't do very well, Kadella.
19:04Anya.
19:07Her family didn't know she were in trouble.
19:09They had no idea.
19:10But not like me.
19:11I were lucky.
19:12Even though I...
19:14did seem ungrateful.
19:18I didn't realise...
19:20that not being locked up...
19:23didn't make me free.
19:27Right, but we need to go.
19:29Come on.
19:30Let go of this.
19:31Put it down.
19:32Ray and Celia are using you.
19:33They've got you fooled
19:34to think that you are them
19:35but you don't.
19:36I'm not a fool.
19:37I'm a grown man.
19:38I know this is what I want.
19:40Ray saved me.
19:41He's been good to me.
19:44You saved me.
19:46Not Ray.
19:48You never gave up on me.
19:50You're doing good, Dad.
19:52This will all be over soon.
19:54I'll get you well.
19:55Well?
19:56Yeah.
19:58Because I owe you that.
20:01You're my boy.
20:03Yeah.
20:05Yeah, I'm your boy.
20:07You said I just needed time.
20:10I did.
20:13I didn't have to answer to Ray.
20:15Trying to please him.
20:17Even though we were gone.
20:22I had to find myself again.
20:25We'll just wait for the boss man
20:27to come with your meds, sir.
20:29When he brought the meds,
20:30it were too late.
20:30He let her die.
20:33How could he do that?
20:38It were evil.
20:41Evil.
20:45You well on your way, Dad?
20:47Rain Salia will never exploit anyone else.
20:50Ever again.
20:54It's not just them though, is it?
20:59If it can happen here, it can happen anywhere.
21:04All those thousands of people being told that they have no worth.
21:12Well, they have.
21:13Everyone has.
21:18They have the same right to a life.
21:23To freedom.
21:25To follow their dreams.
21:29It's what it means to be human.
21:31You can't do it.
21:32No, you can't do it.
21:37If there is no way.
21:39No, you want to do it.
21:46You can't do it.
21:52But I'm not ready to do it.
21:53You can do it.
22:01Now, we will beеждad.
22:05Gracias por ver el video.
