00:13:21,342 --> 00:13:24,386
No, they'll need
a lawyer.

164
00:13:24,554 --> 00:13:30,017
Dawson's family's been contacted.
Downey's closest relative is his aunt
on his mother's side.

165
00:13:30,185 --> 00:13:32,978
She hasn't been contacted yet,
would you like me to do that?

166
00:13:33,146 --> 00:13:34,563
Sure, if you
feel like it.

167
00:13:36,399 --> 00:13:40,402
One of the people you'll be
seeing is the barracks CO,
Colonel Nathan Jessep.

168
00:13:40,570 --> 00:13:42,613
I assume
you've heard of him.

169
00:13:42,780 --> 00:13:45,199
Who hasn't?

170
00:13:45,366 --> 00:13:46,909
He's been in the
papers lately.

171
00:13:47,076 --> 00:13:48,994
He's expected to be
director of operations

172
00:13:49,162 --> 00:13:51,288
of the National Security Council.
Really?

173
00:13:51,456 --> 00:13:54,416
These are the letters that
Santiago wrote in his eight
months at Gitmo.

174
00:13:54,584 --> 00:13:57,252
That's Guantánamo Bay.
I knew that one.

175
00:13:57,420 --> 00:13:58,921
JO: He wrote the fleet
commander, HQ Atlantic,

176
00:13:59,088 --> 00:14:02,090
the Marine commandant,
even his senator.

177
00:14:02,258 --> 00:14:05,552
He wanted to be transferred off
the base. No one was listening.
Are you with me?

178
00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:07,262
Yeah.

179
00:14:08,723 --> 00:14:10,933
Finally he wrote the
Naval Investigative Service,

180
00:14:11,100 --> 00:14:16,563
where he offered to trade
information about Dawson's
shooting for a transfer.

181
00:14:17,232 --> 00:14:19,274
Right. Is that all?

182
00:14:19,442 --> 00:14:23,779
This letter makes it look like
your client had a motive to kill
Santiago.

183
00:14:23,947 --> 00:14:28,784
Got you. And Santiago is who?
The victim.

184
00:14:28,952 --> 00:14:30,285
Write that down.

185
00:14:30,453 --> 00:14:34,456
Am I correct in assuming that
these letters don't paint a flattering
picture of Marine Corps life at Gitmo?

186
00:14:34,624 --> 00:14:35,958
Yes, amon--
And am I further right

187
00:14:36,125 --> 00:14:39,878
that a protracted investigation might
embarrass the Security Council guy?

188
00:14:40,046 --> 00:14:42,673
Colonel Jessep--
DANNY: Twelve years.

189
00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:43,966
I'm sorry?

190
00:14:44,133 --> 00:14:48,053
I'll get them to drop "conspiracy"
and "conduct unbecoming."
Twelve years.

191
00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:51,723
You haven't talked to a witness
or looked at a piece of paper.

192
00:14:52,141 --> 00:14:53,892
Pretty impressive, huh?

193
00:14:54,060 --> 00:14:55,644
You're gonna have to
go deeper than that.

194
00:14:55,812 --> 00:14:58,480
Do you have some jurisdiction
here I should know about?

195
00:14:58,648 --> 00:15:01,275
My job is to make sure
that you do your job.

196
00:15:01,442 --> 00:15:06,822
I'm special counsel for Internal
Affairs. So my jurisdiction's
pretty much in your face.

197
00:15:09,075 --> 00:15:12,077
Read the letters. I'll expect
a report when you return
from Cuba.

198
00:15:12,620 --> 00:15:14,830
Sure.
You're dismissed!

199
00:15:17,041 --> 00:15:19,418
I always forget that part.

200
00:15:21,337 --> 00:15:23,714
He's a little preoccupied.

201
00:15:23,881 --> 00:15:26,842
Team's playing Bethesda
Medical next week.

202
00:15:27,010 --> 00:15:31,597
Tell your friend not to get cute
down there. The Marines in
Guantánamo are fanatical.

203
00:15:31,764 --> 00:15:34,600
About what?
About being Marines.

204
00:15:34,767 --> 00:15:36,476
[♪♪♪]

205
00:15:36,644 --> 00:15:39,313
SANTIAGO:
Dear sir, my name is
PFC William T. Santiago.

206
00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:41,523
l'm a Marine stationed
at Marine barracks,

207
00:15:41,691 --> 00:15:45,152
Rifle Security Company Windward,
2nd Platoon Bravo.

208
00:15:45,320 --> 00:15:48,822
l am writing to inform you
of my problems with my unit
here in Cuba

209
00:15:48,990 --> 00:15:50,574
and to ask for your help.

210
00:15:50,742 --> 00:15:56,038
l've fallen out of runs before
for several reasons, such as
feeling dizzy or nauseated.

211
00:15:56,205 --> 00:15:59,791
But on May 18th, l'd fallen
back about 20 or 30 yards

212
00:15:59,959 --> 00:16:02,502
going down a rocky,
unstable hill.

213
00:16:02,670 --> 00:16:05,422
My sergeant grabbed me
and pushed me down the hill,

214
00:16:05,590 --> 00:16:09,426
then l saw all black and the last
thing l remember is hitting the deck.

215
00:16:09,636 --> 00:16:12,846
l was brought to the hospital,
where l was told l just had
heat exhaustion.

216
00:16:13,014 --> 00:16:18,101
l ask you to help me.
Please, sir, l just need to
be transferred out of RSC.

217
00:16:18,269 --> 00:16:22,689
Sincerely, PFC William T. Santiago,
U.S. Marine Corps.

218
00:16:22,857 --> 00:16:26,860
P.S. ln exchange for
my transfer off the base,
l'm willing to provide you...

219
00:16:27,028 --> 00:16:32,074
MAN: "--with information about
an illegal fenceline shooting that
occurred the night of August the 2nd."

220
00:16:33,076 --> 00:16:37,371
Who the fuck is
PFC William T. Santiago?

221
00:16:37,580 --> 00:16:40,582
Private Santiago's a member
of 2nd Platoon Bravo, sir.

222
00:16:40,750 --> 00:16:44,920
Yeah. Apparently he's
not very happy down
here at Shangri-la,

223
00:16:45,088 --> 00:16:49,925
because he's written letters
to everybody but Santa Claus,
asking for a transfer.

224
00:16:50,093 --> 00:16:55,597
Now he's telling tales about
a fenceline shooting. Matthew?

225
00:16:56,057 --> 00:17:01,478
I'm appalled, sir.
You're appalled.

226
00:17:02,563 --> 00:17:05,941
This kid broke the chain of command
and ratted on a member of his unit,

227
00:17:06,109 --> 00:17:09,319
to say nothing of the fact
that he is a U.S. Marine,

228
00:17:09,487 --> 00:17:14,616
and it would appear he can't run
from here to there without collapsing
from heat exhaustion.

229
00:17:14,784 --> 00:17:17,953
What the fuck is going on
in Bravo company, Matthew?

230
00:17:18,121 --> 00:17:21,039
Colonel, I think perhaps
it would be better to hold
this discussion in private.

231
00:17:21,207 --> 00:17:25,252
That won't be necessary.
I can handle this situation, sir.

232
00:17:25,420 --> 00:17:27,754
Like you handled Curtis Bell?
Sir, your methods--

233
00:17:27,922 --> 00:17:29,047
Don't interrupt me,
lieutenant.

234
00:17:29,215 --> 00:17:30,590
I'm still your superior officer.

235
00:17:30,758 --> 00:17:32,634
And I'm yours, Matthew.

236
00:17:34,637 --> 00:17:37,889
I wanna know what
we're going to do about this.

237
00:17:38,057 --> 00:17:40,892
I think Santiago should be
transferred off the base
immediately.

238
00:17:41,060 --> 00:17:42,644
He's that bad, huh?

239
00:17:42,812 --> 00:17:46,815
Not only that, but word of this
letter's bound to get out, and he's
gonna get his ass whipped.

240
00:17:47,108 --> 00:17:52,779
Hmm.
Transfer Santiago? Yes.

241
00:17:52,947 --> 00:17:57,075
Sure, you're right.
I'm sure that's the thing to do.

242
00:17:58,828 --> 00:18:02,831
Wait. Wait,
I've got a better idea.

243
00:18:02,999 --> 00:18:06,793
Let's transfer the whole squad
off the base. Let's...

244
00:18:06,961 --> 00:18:09,004
On second thought, Windward.

245
00:18:09,172 --> 00:18:13,300
Let's transfer the whole
Windward division off the base.

246
00:18:13,468 --> 00:18:18,722
Jon, go get those boys down
off the fence. They're packing
their bags.

247
00:18:18,890 --> 00:18:21,433
Tom!
Sir?

248
00:18:21,601 --> 00:18:23,477
Get me the president
on the phone.

249
00:18:23,644 --> 00:18:26,271
We're surrendering
our position in Cuba.

250
00:18:26,439 --> 00:18:28,774
Yes, sir.
JESSEP: Wait a minute, Tom.

251
00:18:28,941 --> 00:18:34,696
Don't get the president just yet.
Maybe we should consider this
for a second.

252
00:18:34,864 --> 00:18:36,823
Dismissed, Tom.
Yes, sir.

253
00:18:38,201 --> 00:18:41,870
Maybe-- And I'm just
spit-balling here.

254
00:18:42,038 --> 00:18:46,875
Maybe we have a responsibility
as officers to train Santiago.

255
00:18:47,084 --> 00:18:51,338
Maybe we, as officers,
have a responsibility to this country

256
00:18:51,506 --> 00:18:54,925
to see that the men and women
charged with its security

257
00:18:55,092 --> 00:18:56,885
are trained professionals.

258
00:18:57,053 --> 00:19:00,722
Yes, I'm certain that I read
that somewhere once.

259
00:19:00,890 --> 00:19:03,475
And now I'm thinking,
Colonel Markinson,

260
00:19:03,643 --> 00:19:07,729
that your suggestion
of transferring Santiago,

261
00:19:07,897 --> 00:19:11,107
while expeditious
and certainly painless,

262
00:19:11,317 --> 00:19:16,613
might not be, in a manner of
speaking, the American way.

263
00:19:16,823 --> 00:19:21,076
Santiago stays where he is.

264
00:19:21,244 --> 00:19:26,456
We're gonna train the lad.
Jon, you're in charge.

265
00:19:26,624 --> 00:19:29,584
Santiago doesn't make 4.6, 4.6

266
00:19:29,752 --> 00:19:33,421
on his next proficiency
and conduct report,

267
00:19:33,589 --> 00:19:35,924
and I'm going to blame you.

268
00:19:36,092 --> 00:19:38,552
Then I'm going to kill you.
Yes, sir.

269
00:19:38,928 --> 00:19:41,221
I think that's a mistake, colonel.

270
00:19:42,765 --> 00:19:46,935
Matthew, I think I will have
that word in private with you now.

271
00:19:47,103 --> 00:19:50,772
Jon, that's all. Why don't we meet
at the "O" Club and have lunch,

272
00:19:50,940 --> 00:19:53,650
and we'll talk about the
training of young William.

273
00:19:53,860 --> 00:19:56,528
I'd be delighted to hear
your suggestions.

274
00:19:56,696 --> 00:19:58,947
Dismissed.
Yes, sir.

275
00:20:02,243 --> 00:20:05,287
Matthew, sit down. Please.

276
00:20:10,793 --> 00:20:13,044
What do you think
of Kendrick?

277
00:20:13,212 --> 00:20:14,963
Nathan, I don't think
my opinion of Kendrick--

278
00:20:15,131 --> 00:20:18,300
I think he's pretty much
of a weasel myself.

279
00:20:18,467 --> 00:20:20,260
But he's an awfully good officer,

280
00:20:20,428 --> 00:20:24,764
and in the end, we see eye to eye
on the best way to run a Marine unit.

281
00:20:24,974 --> 00:20:28,310
We're in the business
of saving lives, Matthew.

282
00:20:28,477 --> 00:20:32,147
That is a responsibility
that we have to take
pretty seriously.

283
00:20:32,315 --> 00:20:36,526
And I believe that taking a Marine
who is not quite up to the job

284
00:20:36,694 --> 00:20:41,156
and shipping him off to another
assignment puts lives in danger.

285
00:20:41,991 --> 00:20:44,159
Sit down, Matthew.

286
00:20:46,913 --> 00:20:49,623
[♪♪♪]

287
00:20:53,794 --> 00:20:55,921
We go back a while.

288
00:20:56,088 --> 00:20:58,214
We went to the Academy together,

289
00:20:58,382 --> 00:21:01,843
we were commissioned together,
did our tours in Vietnam together.

290
00:21:02,428 --> 00:21:07,974
But I've been promoted up
through the chain with greater
speed and success than you have.

291
00:21:08,142 --> 00:21:12,145
Now, if that's a source of tension
or embarrassment for you,

292
00:21:12,313 --> 00:21:14,189
I don't give a shit.

293
00:21:14,357 --> 00:21:19,569
We're in the business of saving lives,
Lieutenant Colonel Markinson.

294
00:21:19,737 --> 00:21:23,615
Don't ever question my orders
in front of another officer.

295
00:21:43,594 --> 00:21:46,680
All the paperwork's in order.
Step over there.

296
00:21:46,847 --> 00:21:48,765
Yes, sir.

297
00:21:52,770 --> 00:21:56,815
Hal, is this Washington D.C.?
All right, let's move.

298
00:21:56,983 --> 00:21:58,775
Yes, sir.

299
00:22:05,992 --> 00:22:07,450
Got all of that one.

300
00:22:07,618 --> 00:22:12,205
Excuse me. I wanted to talk to you
about Dawson and Downey.

301
00:22:12,373 --> 00:22:16,126
Say again?
Dawson and Downey.

302
00:22:16,293 --> 00:22:18,169
Those names sound like
they should mean something
to me, but...

303
00:22:18,421 --> 00:22:21,047
Dawson. Downey. Your clients?

304
00:22:21,215 --> 00:22:24,426
The Cuba thing! Yes!
Oh, Dawson and Downey. Right.

305
00:22:27,263 --> 00:22:29,681
I've done something wrong again,
haven't I?

306
00:22:29,849 --> 00:22:34,602
I was wondering why two guys have
been locked up since this morning
while their lawyer's out hitting a ball.

307
00:22:36,772 --> 00:22:39,941
We need the practice.
That wasn't funny.

308
00:22:40,693 --> 00:22:42,068
It was a little funny.

309
00:22:42,236 --> 00:22:47,490
Lieutenant, would you be very
insulted if I recommended
different counsel?

310
00:22:47,658 --> 00:22:50,952
Why?
I don't think you're fit to handle it.

311
00:22:51,579 --> 00:22:57,459
You don't even know me.
Ordinarily it takes someone
hours to find that out.

312
00:22:59,670 --> 00:23:02,589
Oh, come on.
That was damn funny.

313
00:23:05,593 --> 00:23:09,846
You're wrong.
I do know you.

314
00:23:10,056 --> 00:23:13,475
Daniel Alistair Kaffee,
born June 8th, 1964,

315
00:23:13,642 --> 00:23:15,602
at Boston Mercy Hospital.

316
00:23:15,770 --> 00:23:22,317
Your father's Lionel Kaffee,
former Attorney General
of the U.S. , died 1985.

317
00:23:22,568 --> 00:23:25,320
You went to Harvard Law,
then joined the Navy,

318
00:23:25,488 --> 00:23:27,989
probably because that's
what your father wanted.

319
00:23:28,157 --> 00:23:31,785
Now you're just treading water
for the three years in the JAG corps,

If that's the situation,
that's fine, I won't tell
anyone.

322
00:23:38,751 --> 00:23:43,713
But if this case is handled in
the same fast-food, slick-assed,
Persian-bazaar manner

everything else, then something's
gonna get missed.

And I wouldn't be doing my job
if I allowed Dawson and Downey
to sit in prison

325

predetermined the path
of least resistance.

What are you basing this on?
There was no intent.

330
00:24:10,533 --> 00:24:13,243
Doctor's report says that
Santiago died of asphyxiation

331
00:24:13,410 --> 00:24:15,078
brought on by
acute lactic acidosis,

332
00:24:15,246 --> 00:24:18,915
and the nature of the acidosis
strongly suggests poisoning.

333
00:24:19,083 --> 00:24:21,960
Now, I don't know what that
means, but it sounds bad.

334
00:24:22,128 --> 00:24:23,753
Santiago died at 1 a. m.

335
00:24:23,921 --> 00:24:26,673
At 3, the doctor wasn't able to
determine the cause of death.

336
00:24:26,841 --> 00:24:29,050
Two hours later,
he said it was poison.

It's a disciplinary engagement.

00:26:00,643 --> 00:26:04,437

Sir, a Marine refuses to

366
00:26:20,579 --> 00:26:23,164
the men in his squad
would give him a GI shower.

No, sir. We were just
gonna shave his head, sir.

When, all of the sudden...

378
00:27:00,995 --> 00:27:03,830
We saw blood dripping
down his mouth.

We pulled the tape off

all down his face, sir.

Were you there when
the ambulance got there?

On August 2nd, did you fire a shot

Yes, sir.
Why?

His "mirror"?

For every American sentry,
there's a Cuban counterpart.
They're called "mirrors."

Lance corporal claims his mirror
was about to fire at him.

390

Santiago's letter to the NIS
said you fired illegally.

He's saying that the guy,
the mirror, he never made a move.

Oh, Harold? You see
what I'm getting at?

393
00:28:00,763 --> 00:28:04,265
If Santiago didn't have
anything on you, then why
did you give him a Code Red?

394
00:28:04,433 --> 00:28:06,476
Because he broke
the chain of command, sir.

395

He what?
He went outside of his unit.

he should have spoken to me,
then his sergeant, then--

Did you assault Santiago
with the intent of killing him?

No, sir.

To train him, sir.

himself. To respect the code.

We joined the Marines because
we wanted to live by a certain code.
And we found it in the Corps.

what we did was wrong,

That's that.

One thing, though.
When you ask the judge
for new counsel,

783

and ask nicely.

I want you to let them be judged.
I want you to stand up and make
an argument.

Don't look now, but you're

Yeah, yeah. Tomorrow morning,
I get them a new attorney.

792
00:55:36,041 --> 00:55:40,336
Why are you so afraid

The facts of the case
are these:

919
01:05:48,653 --> 01:05:54,700
On September 6th, the accused
entered PFC Santiago's room.

920
01:05:54,868 --> 01:05:57,703
They woke him up,
tied his arms and legs,

921
01:05:57,871 --> 01:06:00,205
and forced a rag
into his throat.

922
01:06:00,373 --> 01:06:06,045
Minutes later, a reaction called lactic
acidosis caused his lungs to bleed.

923
01:06:06,212 --> 01:06:11,717
He drowned in his own blood,
and was dead at 37 minutes
past midnight.

924
01:06:11,885 --> 01:06:16,889
These are the facts of the case,
and they are undisputed.

01:06:17,057 --> 01:06:22,353
That's right. What I've just told you
is exactly what you will hear

926
01:06:22,520 --> 01:06:27,107
from Lance Corporal Dawson
and Private Downey.

927
01:06:27,275 --> 01:06:32,321
Furthermore, we will
also show that the accused
soaked the rag in poison

928
01:06:32,489 --> 01:06:36,408
and entered Santiago's room
with motive and intent to kill.

a little misdirection.

into a few officers for you.

to the end,

936
01:07:05,563 --> 01:07:10,150
all the magic in the world
will not divert your attention
from the fact

937
01:07:10,318 --> 01:07:17,241
that Willy Santiago is dead,
and Dawson and Downey killed him.

940
01:07:24,249 --> 01:07:27,251
There was no poison on the rag
and there was no intent to kill,

941
01:07:27,419 --> 01:07:31,463
and any attempt to prove otherwise
is futile, because it just ain't true.

942
01:07:32,048 --> 01:07:37,678
Dawson and Downey didn't go
into Santiago's room because
of vengeance or hatred.

943
01:07:37,887 --> 01:07:41,849
It wasn't to kill or harm.
And they weren't looking for kicks.

944
01:07:42,016 --> 01:07:45,310
It's because it was what
they were ordered to do.

945
01:07:45,895 --> 01:07:50,482
Let me say that again.
It's because it was what
they were ordered to do.

946
01:07:51,109 --> 01:07:52,985
Out in the real world,
that means nothing.

947

And here in the
Washington Navy Yard,

948
01:07:55,655 --> 01:07:57,281
doesn't mean
a whole lot more.

949

01:08:12,589 --> 01:08:15,841
because they did their job.

954
01:08:19,429 --> 01:08:22,514
RANDOLPH:
Is the government ready
to call its first witness?

955
01:08:22,682 --> 01:08:26,351
Please the court,
government calls
Mr. R.C. McGuire.

956
01:08:30,857 --> 01:08:33,025
Raise your right hand,
please.

957
01:08:33,193 --> 01:08:38,864
Do you swear to tell the truth,
the whole truth, and nothing
but the truth?

958
01:08:39,032 --> 01:08:41,408
McGUIRE: I do.
ROSS: Have a seat, please.

959
01:08:42,494 --> 01:08:45,704
Would you state
your full name and occupation?

960
01:08:45,872 --> 01:08:48,874
Robert C. McGuire, special agent,
Naval Investigative Service.

961
01:08:49,042 --> 01:08:50,209
ROSS:
Thank you.

962
01:08:50,376 --> 01:08:56,715
Did you receive a letter
from PFC Santiago on
3 September of this year?

963
01:08:56,883 --> 01:08:58,967
We did.
What did it say?

964
01:08:59,135 --> 01:09:03,847
That a member of Santiago's
unit had illegally fired across
the fenceline.

965
01:09:04,015 --> 01:09:06,058
Was that Marine
identified in the letter?

966
01:09:06,226 --> 01:09:11,730
No. I told Colonel Jessep
that I would be coming
down to investigate.

967
01:09:11,898 --> 01:09:13,565
And what did you find?

968
01:09:13,733 --> 01:09:18,529
The shift reported only one
sentry returned his weapon
with ammo missing.

969
01:09:18,696 --> 01:09:21,990
Who was that?
Lance Corporal Harold Dawson.

970
01:09:22,158 --> 01:09:23,742
Your Witness.

971
01:09:26,329 --> 01:09:29,665
Mr. McGuire, have you questioned
Dawson about the shooting?

972
01:09:29,916 --> 01:09:33,544
Yes, he claims to have been engaged
in some manner by the enemy.

973
01:09:33,711 --> 01:09:35,963
But you don't believe him?
It's not my place--

974
01:09:36,130 --> 01:09:41,009
Why wasn't Dawson charged with
firing at the enemy without cause?

975
01:09:42,804 --> 01:09:45,681
There wasn't enough evidence
to support such a charge.

976
01:09:45,849 --> 01:09:47,474
Thank you.

977
01:09:48,893 --> 01:09:53,188
Why was there not
enough evidence?

978
01:09:53,356 --> 01:09:55,941
You had William
Santiago's letter.

979
01:09:57,110 --> 01:10:02,614
Santiago was the only eyewitness.
I had no chance to interview him.

980
01:10:02,782 --> 01:10:05,784
And now we'll never know,
will we, Mr. McGuire?

981
01:10:06,536 --> 01:10:07,995
No.

982
01:10:09,414 --> 01:10:13,584
No more questions.
The witness is excused.

983
01:10:16,504 --> 01:10:18,964
Corporal Carl Hammaker,
Marine barracks,

984
01:10:19,132 --> 01:10:22,467
Rifle Security Company
Windward, 2nd Platoon Bravo.

985
01:10:22,635 --> 01:10:29,433
Were you present at a meeting
held by Lieutenant Kendrick on
September 6th?

986
01:10:29,601 --> 01:10:33,478
Yes, sir.
What was the substance of it?

987
01:10:33,646 --> 01:10:36,690
Lieutenant Kendrick told us
we had an informer in our group.

988
01:10:36,858 --> 01:10:42,487
That Santiago had reported to
the NIS on a member of our platoon.

989
01:10:42,655 --> 01:10:44,865
Did that make you mad?

990
01:10:45,033 --> 01:10:48,327
You can tell the truth. Did it?
Yes, sir.

991
01:10:48,494 --> 01:10:49,661
How mad?

992
01:10:49,829 --> 01:10:53,582
Santiago betrayed a code
we believe in very deeply.

993
01:10:53,750 --> 01:10:56,376
Were other men also angry?
Object. Speculation.

994
01:10:56,628 --> 01:10:58,211
Were Dawson
and Downey?

995
01:10:58,463 --> 01:11:00,714
Is the counsel asking
this witness to testify

996
01:11:00,882 --> 01:11:03,508
as to how my clients felt
on Sept. 6th?

997
01:11:03,927 --> 01:11:05,510
Sustained.

998
01:11:07,388 --> 01:11:11,350
Did Lieutenant Kendrick leave
a standing order at that meeting?

999
01:11:11,517 --> 01:11:13,769
Yes, sir.
What was it?

1000
01:11:15,897 --> 01:11:19,316
It was clear he didn't want us
taking matters into our own hands.

1001
01:11:19,484 --> 01:11:26,198
What was the order?
Santiago wasn't to be touched.

1002
01:11:27,617 --> 01:11:30,452
Your witness.

1003
01:11:30,620 --> 01:11:34,373
Were you in Dawson and Downey's
room five minutes later?

1004
01:11:34,540 --> 01:11:35,874
No, sir.

1005
01:11:36,250 --> 01:11:40,879
Thanks. No more questions.
The witness is excused.

1006
01:11:44,842 --> 01:11:47,260
Government calls
Corporal Raymond Thomas.

1007
01:11:47,428 --> 01:11:52,933
Please the court, I understand
Captain Ross is planning to call all
the members of the platoon to testify.

1008
01:11:53,101 --> 01:11:55,477
In light of the defense
Kaffee is planning,

1009
01:11:55,645 --> 01:11:59,314
the platoon leader's instructions
seems relevant testimony.

1010
01:11:59,482 --> 01:12:04,069
The defense concedes that all 22
will confirm Hammaker's account

1011
01:12:04,237 --> 01:12:06,488
if the government
concedes none of them

1012
01:12:06,656 --> 01:12:10,409
were in Dawson and
Downey's room at 1620.

1013
01:12:10,576 --> 01:12:14,913
Captain?
The government will stipulate.

1014
01:12:15,081 --> 01:12:19,001
Then we will adjourn. You can
call your next witness tomorrow.

1015
01:12:19,168 --> 01:12:20,919
BAILIFF:
All rise.

1016
01:12:25,758 --> 01:12:27,759
[♪♪♪]

1017
01:12:32,598 --> 01:12:35,308
Let's go over the doctor again.
It's the right approach.

1018
01:12:35,560 --> 01:12:37,352
We've been
over this already.

1019
01:12:37,520 --> 01:12:41,231
At 3:00, Stone says he
doesn't know what killed Santiago.

1020
01:12:41,399 --> 01:12:46,111
Then he meets with Jessep,
and at 5:00 he says it was poison?
He's not telling the truth.

1021
01:12:46,279 --> 01:12:47,362
Oh, that's a relief.

1022
01:12:47,530 --> 01:12:50,991
I was afraid I couldn't use
the "liar, liar, pants on fire"
defense.

1023
01:12:51,159 --> 01:12:57,414
We can't prove coercion.
Let's go over what we have.

1024
01:13:06,049 --> 01:13:09,634
MAN: Private Santiago was
admitted to the ER at 0012,

1025
01:13:09,802 --> 01:13:13,680
and he was pronounced
dead at 0037.

1026
01:13:13,848 --> 01:13:17,142
ROSS:
Dr. Stone, what is lactic acidosis?

1027
01:13:17,310 --> 01:13:20,896
If the muscles and other cells
burn sugar instead of oxygen,

1028
01:13:21,064 --> 01:13:22,564
lactic acid is produced.

1029
01:13:22,732 --> 01:13:26,151
That lactic acid is what caused
Santiago's lungs to bleed.

1030
01:13:26,319 --> 01:13:31,656
How long does it take before
the muscles start burning sugar?

1031
01:13:32,533 --> 01:13:38,121
Twenty to 30 minutes.
What made it faster with Santiago?

1032
01:13:38,289 --> 01:13:43,502
An ingested poison of some kind.
Object. The witness is speculating.

1033
01:13:43,669 --> 01:13:45,378
He is an expert medical witness.

1034
01:13:45,546 --> 01:13:48,173
In this court,
his opinion is not speculation.

1035
01:13:48,341 --> 01:13:53,845
He is not a criminologist.
The medical facts are
inconclusive.

1036
01:13:54,013 --> 01:13:57,682
A point I'm confident you'll illustrate
on your cross-examination.

1037
01:13:57,850 --> 01:14:00,852
So I'm sure you won't mind
if his opinion is admitted now?

1038
01:14:01,437 --> 01:14:03,522
Not at all, sir.

1039
01:14:05,066 --> 01:14:11,154
Did Willy Santiago die of poisoning?
Absolutely.

1040
01:14:11,322 --> 01:14:15,325
You're aware that the lab
and coroner's reports show
no traces of poison?

1041
01:14:15,493 --> 01:14:17,953
Yes, I am.
Then how do you justify--?

1042
01:14:18,121 --> 01:14:21,039
There are literally dozens of toxins
which are virtually undetectable,

1043
01:14:21,207 --> 01:14:23,583
both in the human body
and on the fabric.

1044
01:14:23,751 --> 01:14:27,462
The nature of the acidosis
is the compelling factor here.

1045
01:14:28,047 --> 01:14:30,173
Thank you, sir.

1046
01:14:32,260 --> 01:14:36,888
Commander, is it possible
for a person to have an
affliction, some condition,

1047
01:14:37,056 --> 01:14:39,891
which might also
speed up acidosis?

1048
01:14:42,728 --> 01:14:46,481
Is it possible?
It's possible.

1049
01:14:46,649 --> 01:14:50,110
What might some of
those conditions be?

1050
01:14:50,278 --> 01:14:53,405
If a person had a coronary
or cerebral disorder,

1051
01:14:53,573 --> 01:14:55,657
the process
would be more rapid.

1052
01:14:55,825 --> 01:14:57,909
If I had a coronary
condition

1053
01:14:58,077 --> 01:15:01,663
and a perfectly clean rag
was placed in my mouth
and pushed too far,

1054
01:15:01,831 --> 01:15:04,749
is it possible my cells would
continue burning sugar

1055
01:15:04,917 --> 01:15:06,418
after the rag was taken out?

1056
01:15:06,919 --> 01:15:09,379
It would have to be
a very serious condition.

1057
01:15:09,547 --> 01:15:13,800
Is it possible to have a serious
condition where initial symptoms
were so mild

1058
01:15:13,968 --> 01:15:18,221
as to escape a physician
during a routine medical exam?

1059
01:15:18,389 --> 01:15:21,099
Possibly. There would
still be symptoms.

1060
01:15:21,267 --> 01:15:22,601
What kind of symptoms?

1061
01:15:23,019 --> 01:15:25,228
There are hundreds of--
Chest pains?

1062
01:15:25,396 --> 01:15:28,607
Yes. Yes.
Shortness of breath? Fatigue?

1063
01:15:29,066 --> 01:15:30,442
Of course.

1064
01:15:36,240 --> 01:15:40,744
Doctor, is this your signature?
Yes, it is.

1065
01:15:41,287 --> 01:15:45,123
This is an order for
Private Santiago to be
put on restricted duty.

1066
01:15:45,291 --> 01:15:49,127
Would you read your handwritten
remarks at the bottom of the page?

1067
01:15:49,295 --> 01:15:55,634
"Patient complains of chest pains,
shortness of breath, and fatigue.

1068
01:15:55,801 --> 01:16:00,138
Restricted from running distances
over five miles for one week."

1069
01:16:02,308 --> 01:16:05,644
Isn't it possible Santiago had
a serious coronary condition

1070
01:16:05,811 --> 01:16:10,815
and it was that condition,
not poison, that caused
the rapid chemical reaction?

1071
01:16:10,983 --> 01:16:14,152
No.
It's not possible?

1072
01:16:14,654 --> 01:16:19,157
No. I personally give each man
a thorough physical examination.

1073
01:16:19,325 --> 01:16:22,327
Private Santiago was given
a clean bill of health.

1074
01:16:22,495 --> 01:16:24,829
That's why it had
to be poison, right?

1075
01:16:24,997 --> 01:16:27,791
Because if you gave a man
with a serious condition

1076
01:16:27,959 --> 01:16:31,670
a clean bill of health and he died
from a heart-related incident,

1077
01:16:31,837 --> 01:16:33,755
you'd have a lot
to answer for.

1078
01:16:33,923 --> 01:16:36,800

RANDOLPH: Sustained.

at a hospital which
has served 5426 people.

1083
01:16:52,858 --> 01:16:57,654
In your professional opinion,
was Willy Santiago poisoned?

1084
01:16:57,822 --> 01:17:02,575
We ask that the doctor's testimony
be stricken from the record.

1085
01:17:02,743 --> 01:17:06,663
The court members should lend no
weight to this witness's testimony.

1086
01:17:06,831 --> 01:17:08,373
The objection's overruled.

1087
01:17:08,541 --> 01:17:13,420
We strenuously object,
and requests an 802 conference

1088
01:17:13,587 --> 01:17:16,798
so His Honor can hear discussion
before ruling on this objection.

1089
01:17:16,966 --> 01:17:21,636
The objection has been overruled.
Move to reconsider.

01:17:21,804 --> 01:17:27,058
Noted. The witness is an expert,
and the court will hear his opinion!

In your expert
professional opinion,

1092

was Willy Santiago poisoned?

01:17:39,989 --> 01:17:44,868
Yes.
Thank you, sir. No more questions.

1094
01:17:45,119 --> 01:17:47,370
You may step down.

While we reserve the right
to call rebuttal witnesses,

We'll recess until

You got the court thinking
we're afraid of the doctor.

01:29:30,782 --> 01:29:33,284
All right. I have an
obligation to tell you.

1270
01:29:33,452 --> 01:29:36,662
If you accuse Kendrick or Jessep
of any crime without evidence,

1271
01:29:36,830 --> 01:29:39,457
you'll be court-martialed
for misconduct

1272
01:29:39,624 --> 01:29:44,045
and that's gonna be stapled
to every job application
you ever fill out.

1273
01:29:45,839 --> 01:29:49,633
Markinson won't hold up,
he's a crazy man.

1274
01:29:49,801 --> 01:29:52,970
I'm not saying this to
intimidate you, I'm being
your lawyer here.

1275
01:29:53,138 --> 01:29:56,974
Thanks. And I wanna tell you
I think the whole fucking bunch
of you are insane.

1276
01:29:57,142 --> 01:29:59,560
This code of honor
makes me wanna beat
the shit out of something!

1277
01:29:59,728 --> 01:30:03,481
Don't you dare lump me in
with Jessep and Kendrick.

1278
01:30:03,648 --> 01:30:08,611
I'm your friend. Your
clients don't belong in jail,
but it's not my decision.

1279
01:30:08,779 --> 01:30:13,157
I represent the U.S. government
without passion or prejudice,

1280
01:30:13,325 --> 01:30:16,243
and my client has a case.
WAITRESS: Here you go.

1281
01:30:20,290 --> 01:30:23,542
I want you to acknowledge that the
judge advocate has made you aware

1282
01:30:23,710 --> 01:30:28,255
of the consequences of accusing
a Marine officer without evidence.

1283
01:30:29,091 --> 01:30:30,966
I've been so advised.

1284
01:30:35,222 --> 01:30:42,103
You got bullied into that
courtroom. By everyone.
By Dawson. By Galloway.

1285
01:30:42,270 --> 01:30:44,522
Shit, I practically
dared you.

1286
01:30:45,941 --> 01:30:49,276
You got bullied into that courtroom
by the memory of a dead lawyer.

1287
01:30:55,450 --> 01:31:00,454
You're a lousy fucking
softball player, Jack!

1288
01:31:01,957 --> 01:31:04,291
Your boys are
going down, Danny.

1289
01:31:04,459 --> 01:31:07,503
I can't stop it anymore.

1290
01:31:11,466 --> 01:31:14,677
DANNY:
Was Santiago a good Marine?

1291
01:31:14,845 --> 01:31:16,846
I'd say he was average.

1292
01:31:17,013 --> 01:31:23,936
Your proficiency and conduct reports
all indicate he was below average.

1293
01:31:27,524 --> 01:31:31,277
Yes, he was below average.

1294
01:31:31,444 --> 01:31:34,238
I did not see the need
to trample on his grave.

1295
01:31:35,407 --> 01:31:40,161
We appreciate it, but you're
under oath. I think we'd all like
to hear the truth.

1296
01:31:40,328 --> 01:31:42,079
I'm aware of my oath.

1297
01:31:42,247 --> 01:31:47,293
These are the last three
pro-con reports you signed
for Lance Corporal Dawson.

1298
01:31:47,460 --> 01:31:53,549
He rated exceptional twice,
but on June 9th he's below average.

1299
01:31:53,717 --> 01:31:57,595
I'd like to discuss that.
That would be fine.

1300
01:31:57,762 --> 01:32:01,348
Dawson's ranking after
the School of Infantry was perfect.

1301
01:32:01,516 --> 01:32:06,729
But unlike most of his class,
he hasn't been promoted.

1302
01:32:06,897 --> 01:32:11,775
Was this report the reason?
I'm sure it was.

1303
01:32:11,943 --> 01:32:16,238
Do you recall why he got this grade?
I'm sure I don't.

1304
01:32:16,406 --> 01:32:20,117
I have many men in my charge.
I write many reports.

1305
01:32:20,285 --> 01:32:25,956
Do you recall an incident
involving a PFC Curtis Bell

1306
01:32:26,124 --> 01:32:28,751
stealing liquor
from the officers' club?

1307
01:32:29,044 --> 01:32:30,753
Yes, I do.

1308
01:32:30,921 --> 01:32:33,255
Did you report Private Bell
to the proper authorities?

1309
01:32:35,217 --> 01:32:37,259
I have two books at my bedside:

1310
01:32:37,427 --> 01:32:40,221
The Marine Corps Code of Conduct
and the King James Bible.

1311
01:32:40,388 --> 01:32:45,851
The only proper authorities
I'm aware of are Colonel
Jessep and God.

1312
01:32:47,395 --> 01:32:52,733
Then you don't acknowledge
this court as a proper authority?

1313
01:32:52,901 --> 01:32:57,780
Objection. Argumentative.
Sustained. Watch yourself.

1314
01:32:57,948 --> 01:33:03,744
Did you report Private Bell?
I thought very highly of him.

1315
01:33:03,912 --> 01:33:06,664
I didn't want his record
tarnished by a charge.

1316
01:33:07,749 --> 01:33:10,668
You preferred it be
handled within the unit?

1317
01:33:12,462 --> 01:33:14,338
Yes, I most certainly did.

1318
01:33:15,382 --> 01:33:18,801
Do you know what a Code Red is?
Yes, I do.

1319
01:33:18,969 --> 01:33:22,096
Have you ever ordered one?
No, I have not.

1320
01:33:22,264 --> 01:33:26,725
Did you order that Private Bell
receive no food or drink

1321
01:33:26,893 --> 01:33:30,771
except water for
a period of seven days?

1322
01:33:30,939 --> 01:33:35,526
You're distorting the truth.
He was on barracks restriction.

1323
01:33:35,694 --> 01:33:42,658
He was given water and vitamins.
His health was never in danger.

1324
01:33:42,867 --> 01:33:48,205
I'm sure it was lovely for him.
But you did order the restriction.

1325
01:33:48,373 --> 01:33:52,459
You denied him food?
Yes, I did.

1326
01:33:52,627 --> 01:33:59,049
Wouldn't this be called a Code Red?
No.

1327
01:33:59,217 --> 01:34:04,555
Would the other 478 Marines
at Guantánamo Bay consider it
a Code Red?

1328
01:34:04,723 --> 01:34:09,184
The witness can't testify as to
what 478 other men would say.

1329
01:34:09,352 --> 01:34:13,147
We object to this line of
questioning as argumentative

1330
01:34:13,315 --> 01:34:15,566
and irrelevant badgering
of the witness.

And I would remind you

1332
01:34:19,571 --> 01:34:23,574
that you're questioning an officer
with an impeccable service record.

ROSS:
Thank you, Your Honor.

1334
01:34:26,202 --> 01:34:32,916
Was Dawson rated below average
for sneaking food to Private Bell?

1335
01:34:33,084 --> 01:34:36,420
ROSS: Object!
Not so fast. Lieutenant?

1336
01:34:38,089 --> 01:34:41,759
Dawson was given
a below average rating

1337
01:34:42,552 --> 01:34:45,220
because he had
committed a crime.

1338
01:34:45,388 --> 01:34:49,558
Crime?
What crime did he commit?

1339
01:34:50,352 --> 01:34:56,523
Lieutenant Kendrick, Dawson
brought a hungry guy some food.

1340
01:34:56,691 --> 01:35:01,779
What crime did he commit?
He disobeyed an order.

1341
01:35:01,946 --> 01:35:07,493
And because he made a decision
about the welfare of a Marine

1342
01:35:07,660 --> 01:35:11,121
that conflicted with your order,
he was punished, right?

1343
01:35:11,289 --> 01:35:14,750
Lance Corporal Dawson
disobeyed an order!

1344
01:35:14,918 --> 01:35:19,671
It wasn't a real order, was it?
After all, it's peacetime.

1345
01:35:19,839 --> 01:35:22,966
He wasn't asked
to advance on a beachhead.

1346
01:35:23,134 --> 01:35:27,471
Surely a Marine
of Dawson's intelligence

1347
01:35:27,639 --> 01:35:30,474
can be trusted to determine
which are the important orders

1348
01:35:30,642 --> 01:35:34,603
and which orders might, say,
be morally questionable?

1349
01:35:35,980 --> 01:35:39,775
Lieutenant Kendrick? Can he?

1350
01:35:39,943 --> 01:35:43,404
Can Dawson determine on his own
which orders to follow?

1351
01:35:43,571 --> 01:35:45,155
No, he cannot.

1352
01:35:45,323 --> 01:35:47,950
A lesson he learned
after the Bell incident.

1353
01:35:48,118 --> 01:35:50,452
I would think so.
You know so, don't you?

1354
01:35:50,662 --> 01:35:52,663
ROSS: Object!
RANDOLPH: Sustained.

1355
01:35:55,166 --> 01:35:57,876
Lieutenant Kendrick,
one final question.

1356
01:35:58,878 --> 01:36:02,256
If you had ordered Dawson
to give Santiago a Code Red,

1357
01:36:02,424 --> 01:36:04,716
I ordered them not to touch him!

1358
01:36:04,884 --> 01:36:06,510
would he have
disobeyed you again?

1359
01:36:06,678 --> 01:36:10,681
ROSS: Lieutenant, don't answer that!
You don't have to. I'm through.

1360
01:36:11,141 --> 01:36:18,856
Did you order Dawson and Downey
to give Willy Santiago a Code Red?

1361
01:36:20,275 --> 01:36:22,734
Lieutenant Kendrick, did you--?
No, I did not.

1362
01:36:22,902 --> 01:36:24,570
Thank you.

It arrived at Andrews at 2 a. m.

1370
01:37:07,947 --> 01:37:11,074
Really? Then why isn't it listed
in the tower chief's log?

1371
01:37:13,077 --> 01:37:18,916
Jessep.
What? He fixed the logbook?

1372
01:37:19,083 --> 01:37:22,669
Maybe he can make it so it didn't
take off, but I can prove it landed.

1373
01:37:22,837 --> 01:37:25,297
I'll get the logbook
from Andrews.

1374
01:37:25,465 --> 01:37:30,260

He can make a flight disappear?

how to sidestep a few landmines.

This isn't TWA. You know
how many planes take off
and land every day?

the transfer was forged.

01:53:54,828 --> 01:54:00,958
You're not suggesting that I
back off a material witness?

1581
01:54:01,418 --> 01:54:04,253
If you think
you can't get him, yeah.

1582
01:54:06,632 --> 01:54:08,216
BAILIFF:
All rise!

1583
01:54:13,305 --> 01:54:15,723
Where's Sam?
He's on his way.

1584
01:54:21,647 --> 01:54:22,897
RANDOLPH:
Call your first witness.

1585
01:54:23,065 --> 01:54:25,525
Where is he?
He'll be here. Don't worry.

1586
01:54:25,692 --> 01:54:28,444
Lieutenant! Call your witness.

1587
01:54:35,327 --> 01:54:37,745
Defense calls Colonel
Nathan Jessep.

1588
01:54:54,346 --> 01:54:57,306
Colonel Jessep,
raise your right hand,
please, sir.

1589
01:54:57,474 --> 01:55:01,686
Do you solemnly swear
to tell the truth,

1590
01:55:01,853 --> 01:55:04,355
the whole truth,
and nothing but the truth?

1591
01:55:04,648 --> 01:55:09,068
Yes, I do.
Have a seat, please, sir.

1592
01:55:09,236 --> 01:55:12,488
State your name, rank
and current billet for the record.

1593
01:55:13,323 --> 01:55:16,867
Colonel Jessep, Commanding
Officer, Marine Ground Forces,

1594
01:55:17,035 --> 01:55:19,078
Guantánamo Bay, Cuba.

1595
01:55:19,246 --> 01:55:22,665
ROSS: Thank you, sir.
He's not here.

1596
01:55:27,504 --> 01:55:31,048
When you learned
of Santiago's letter to the NIS,

1597
01:55:31,216 --> 01:55:34,844
you had a meeting with
your two senior officers,
is that right?

1598
01:55:35,012 --> 01:55:36,846
Yes.

1599
01:55:37,014 --> 01:55:39,682
Platoon Commander
Kendrick

1600
01:55:39,850 --> 01:55:43,561
and the executive officer,
Lieutenant Colonel Markinson.

1601
01:55:44,104 --> 01:55:45,187
Yes.

1602
01:55:45,355 --> 01:55:49,775
And, at present,
Markinson is dead, is that right?

1603
01:55:49,943 --> 01:55:53,821
What is the
counselor implying?

1604
01:55:53,989 --> 01:55:57,366
Simply that at present
Markinson is not alive.

1605
01:55:57,534 --> 01:56:01,203
Surely Colonel Jessep
doesn't need to confirm that.

1606
01:56:01,371 --> 01:56:05,625
I wasn't sure he was aware
that Markinson took his own life
two days ago.

1607
01:56:05,792 --> 01:56:06,876
[DOOR OPENS]

1608
01:56:07,044 --> 01:56:11,130
RANDOLPH: The witness,
the court and now the
court members are aware.

1609
01:56:11,590 --> 01:56:16,552
We thank you for bringing it up.
Move on, lieutenant.

1610
01:56:16,720 --> 01:56:18,387
DANNY:
Yes, sir.

1611
01:56:18,555 --> 01:56:22,099
At this meeting, you gave
Kendrick an order, right?

1612
01:56:22,267 --> 01:56:26,479
I told him to tell his men
not to touch Santiago.

1613
01:56:26,813 --> 01:56:29,523
And did you give an order
to Markinson as well?

1614
01:56:29,691 --> 01:56:34,987
I ordered him to have Santiago
transferred off the base immediately.

1615
01:56:35,155 --> 01:56:40,826
Why?
I felt his life might be in danger.

1616
01:56:41,244 --> 01:56:45,581
Grave danger?
Is there another kind?

1617
01:56:48,502 --> 01:56:52,588
This is the transfer order
that you and Markinson co-signed,

1618
01:56:52,756 --> 01:56:56,884
ordering that Santiago fly out
at 6 the next morning.

1619
01:56:57,052 --> 01:57:02,014
Was that the first flight off the base?
The 0600 was the first flight.

1620
01:57:06,228 --> 01:57:09,271
You flew here today, is that right?
Yes.

1621
01:57:09,439 --> 01:57:14,276
You're wearing your dress uniform.
As are you, lieutenant.

1622
01:57:14,444 --> 01:57:18,989
Did you wear it on the plane?
Is this dialogue relevant to anything?

1623
01:57:19,157 --> 01:57:23,285
We didn't have a chance
to depose this witness. I'd ask
the court for a little latitude.

1624
01:57:23,453 --> 01:57:27,581
A very little latitude.
Colonel?

1625
01:57:27,749 --> 01:57:29,667
I wore utilities on the plane.

1626
01:57:29,835 --> 01:57:32,795
You brought your dress uniform?
Yes.

1627
01:57:32,963 --> 01:57:35,965
Toothbrush, shaving kit, underwear?
Your Honor!

1628
01:57:36,133 --> 01:57:38,551
Is his underwear
a matter of national
security?

1629
01:57:38,719 --> 01:57:42,138
Gentlemen. You'd better get
somewhere fast with this, lieutenant.

1630
01:57:42,305 --> 01:57:44,306
Yes, sir. Colonel?

1631
01:57:45,183 --> 01:57:49,145
I brought a change of clothes
and some personal items.

1632
01:57:49,771 --> 01:57:51,230
Thank you.

1633
01:57:51,398 --> 01:57:54,817
After Dawson and Downey's
arrest on the night of the 6th,

1634
01:57:54,985 --> 01:57:59,280
Santiago's barracks room
was sealed off, and its
contents inventoried.

1635
01:57:59,448 --> 01:58:04,034
Four pairs of camouflage pants,
three khaki shirts, three pairs
of boots.

1636
01:58:04,202 --> 01:58:09,498
Four pairs green socks--
Is there a question in our future?

1637
01:58:09,833 --> 01:58:12,501
Lieutenant, state your question.

1638
01:58:13,003 --> 01:58:15,588
I'm wondering why
Santiago wasn't packed.

1639
01:58:18,383 --> 01:58:21,469
Tell you what, we'll get back
to that one in a minute.

1640
01:58:21,636 --> 01:58:25,473
This is a record of all phone calls
from your base in the past 24 hours.

1641
01:58:25,640 --> 01:58:28,893
After being subpoenaed,
you made three calls.

1642
01:58:29,060 --> 01:58:31,520
Do you recognize
those numbers?

1643
01:58:31,688 --> 01:58:37,443
I called Colonel Fitzhughes
to let him know I'd be in town.

1644
01:58:37,611 --> 01:58:43,282
The second was to arrange
a meeting with Congressman
Richman.

1645
01:58:43,450 --> 01:58:48,537
And the third call was to my sister.
Why did you make that call?

1646
01:58:48,997 --> 01:58:51,165
I thought she might
like to have dinner.

1647
01:58:51,333 --> 01:58:53,125
ROSS: Your Honor.
I'll put a stop to this.

1648
01:58:53,293 --> 01:58:57,463
These are the phone records
from Gitmo for September 6th.

1649
01:58:57,631 --> 01:59:02,927
And these are 14 letters
that Santiago wrote in nine months

1650
01:59:03,094 --> 01:59:06,347
requesting,
begging for a transfer.

1651
01:59:06,515 --> 01:59:09,308
Upon hearing the news
he was getting it,

1652
01:59:09,476 --> 01:59:11,268
Santiago was so excited,

1653
01:59:11,436 --> 01:59:15,689
you know how many people
he called? Zero! Nobody.

1654
01:59:16,107 --> 01:59:19,568
Not one call to his parents,
saying he was coming home.

1655
01:59:19,736 --> 01:59:23,197
Not one call to a friend,
saying, "Can you pick me up?"

1656
01:59:23,365 --> 01:59:29,411
He was asleep at midnight,
and you say he had a flight
in six hours.

1657
01:59:29,579 --> 01:59:35,918
Yet everything he owned was
in his closet or his footlocker.

1658
01:59:36,086 --> 01:59:39,588
You were leaving for one day,
you packed and made three calls.

1659
01:59:39,756 --> 01:59:45,970
Santiago was leaving
for the rest of his life

1660
01:59:46,137 --> 01:59:50,975
and he hadn't called a soul,
and he hadn't packed a thing.

1661
01:59:54,688 --> 01:59:56,272
Can you explain that?

1662
01:59:59,150 --> 02:00:03,863
Fact is, there was no
transfer order. Santiago
wasn't going anywhere, right?

1663
02:00:04,030 --> 02:00:09,785
ROSS: Objection!
Lieutenant Kaffee is trying to smear
a high-ranking Marine officer,

1664
02:00:09,953 --> 02:00:12,288
desperately hoping to
suggest impropriety

1665
02:00:12,455 --> 02:00:17,585
and win points with the court.
I recommend that he be
reprimanded

1666
02:00:17,752 --> 02:00:21,589
and the witness be excused
with apologies.

1667
02:00:22,173 --> 02:00:28,596
Overruled. The objection is noted.
Colonel?

1668
02:00:30,015 --> 02:00:31,807
[CHUCKLES]

1669
02:00:32,684 --> 02:00:37,146
Is this funny, sir?
No, it's not. It's tragic.

1670
02:00:37,314 --> 02:00:39,940
Do you have an answer?
Absolutely.

1671
02:00:40,108 --> 02:00:44,153
My answer is I don't have
the first damn clue.

1672
02:00:44,321 --> 02:00:50,659
Maybe he was an early riser.
Maybe he didn't have any friends.

1673
02:00:50,827 --> 02:00:54,246
I'm an educated man,
but I can't speak intelligently

1674
02:00:54,414 --> 02:00:58,000
about the travel habits
of William Santiago.

1675
02:00:58,168 --> 02:01:02,963
What I do know is that he was
set to leave the base at 0600.

1676
02:01:03,798 --> 02:01:08,719
Now, are these really the questions
that I was called here to answer?

1677
02:01:08,887 --> 02:01:11,347
Phone calls and foot lockers?

1678
02:01:11,806 --> 02:01:15,142
Please tell me you have
something more, lieutenant.

1679
02:01:15,352 --> 02:01:18,938
These two Marines
are on trial for their lives.

1680
02:01:19,105 --> 02:01:23,442
Please tell me their lawyer hasn't
pinned their hopes to a phone bill.

1681
02:01:26,279 --> 02:01:29,365
Do you have any other questions
for me, counselor?

1682
02:01:38,249 --> 02:01:40,876
RANDOLPH:
Lieutenant Kaffee?

1683
02:01:48,218 --> 02:01:52,554
Lieutenant, do you have anything
further for this witness?

1684
02:01:59,354 --> 02:02:04,149
Thanks, Danny. I love Washington.
Excuse me. I didn't dismiss you.

1685
02:02:05,151 --> 02:02:09,780
I beg your pardon?
I'm not through with my examination.

1686
02:02:09,948 --> 02:02:11,573
Sit down.

1687
02:02:13,410 --> 02:02:15,911
"Colonel."
What's that?

1688
02:02:16,079 --> 02:02:20,416
I'd appreciate if he would
address me as "colonel" or "sir."
I've earned it.

1689
02:02:21,001 --> 02:02:24,545
RANDOLPH:
Defense counsel will address
the witness as "colonel" or "sir."

1690
02:02:24,713 --> 02:02:27,756
I don't know what the hell
kind of unit you're running here.

1691
02:02:27,924 --> 02:02:31,510
And the witness will address this
court as "judge" or "Your Honor."

1692
02:02:31,678 --> 02:02:33,512
I'm quite certain I've earned it.

1693
02:02:34,264 --> 02:02:38,225
Take your seat, colonel.

1694
02:02:41,396 --> 02:02:45,566
What shall we discuss now?
My favorite color?

1695
02:02:46,568 --> 02:02:49,194
Colonel, the 6 a. m. flight
was the first off the base?

1696
02:02:49,362 --> 02:02:50,946
Yes.

1697
02:02:51,114 --> 02:02:55,200
There wasn't one seven
hours earlier and landed
at Andrews at 2 a. m.?

1698
02:02:55,368 --> 02:02:58,245
I think we've covered this,
haven't we?

1699
02:02:59,080 --> 02:03:04,293
These are the tower chief's logs
for Guantánamo Bay and Andrews.

1700
02:03:04,794 --> 02:03:10,299
There's no flight at 11 p. m. ,
and no arrival at 2 a. m.

1701
02:03:10,467 --> 02:03:13,802
I'd like to admit them as
Defense Exhibits Alpha and Bravo.

1702
02:03:13,970 --> 02:03:17,389
You're admitting evidence
of a flight that never existed.

1703
02:03:17,557 --> 02:03:19,975
We believe it did, sir.

1704
02:03:20,143 --> 02:03:26,148
We call Airmen O'Malley and
Rodriguez of Andrews Air Base.

1705
02:03:26,316 --> 02:03:28,025
They weren't on the list.

1706
02:03:28,193 --> 02:03:33,739
Rebuttal witnesses, Your Honor,
called to refute testimony.

1707
02:03:33,907 --> 02:03:36,742
I'll allow the witnesses.
This is ridiculous!

1708
02:03:37,077 --> 02:03:38,410
Colonel, a moment ago--

1709
02:03:38,578 --> 02:03:44,333
Check the logs, for chrissake!
We'll get to that in a minute.

1710
02:03:45,418 --> 02:03:51,465
You said you ordered Kendrick
to say that Santiago wasn't to be
touched.

1711
02:03:51,633 --> 02:03:53,092
That's right.

1712
02:03:53,259 --> 02:03:57,763
He was clear on what you wanted?
Crystal.

1713
02:03:58,681 --> 02:04:03,018
Could he have ignored the order?
Ignored the order?

1714
02:04:03,186 --> 02:04:06,188
Or forgot about it?
No.

1715
02:04:06,356 --> 02:04:10,359
Any chance he could have thought,
"The old man is wrong"?

1716
02:04:10,985 --> 02:04:12,361
No.

1717
02:04:12,529 --> 02:04:18,033
When Lieutenant Kendrick
spoke to the platoon,
any chance they ignored him?

1718
02:04:19,494 --> 02:04:23,413
You ever served in the infantry, son?
No, sir.

1719
02:04:23,581 --> 02:04:27,126
Ever served in a forward area?
No, sir.

1720
02:04:27,544 --> 02:04:32,881
Ever put your life in another
man's hands, and his in yours?

1721
02:04:33,049 --> 02:04:34,383
No, sir.

1722
02:04:34,551 --> 02:04:39,096
We follow orders, son.
We follow orders or people die.

1723
02:04:39,264 --> 02:04:42,391
It's that simple. Are we clear?

1724
02:04:43,101 --> 02:04:44,351
Yes, sir.

1725
02:04:44,519 --> 02:04:48,897
Are we clear?
Crystal.

1726
02:04:50,608 --> 02:04:54,820
Just one more question, before I call
Airmen O'Malley and Rodriguez.

1727
02:04:56,114 --> 02:05:00,409
If you ordered that Santiago
wasn't to be touched

1728
02:05:00,910 --> 02:05:04,705
and your orders
are always followed,

1729
02:05:04,873 --> 02:05:09,084
then why would Santiago
be in danger?

1730
02:05:10,044 --> 02:05:13,755
Why would it be necessary
to transfer him off the base?

1731
02:05:19,554 --> 02:05:23,849
Santiago was a substandard Marine.
He was being transferred--

1732
02:05:24,017 --> 02:05:27,978
You said he was being transferred
because he was in grave danger.

1733
02:05:28,146 --> 02:05:30,272
That's correct.
You said he was in danger.

1734
02:05:30,440 --> 02:05:32,608
I said, "grave danger?" You said--
I recall--

1735
02:05:32,775 --> 02:05:34,276
I can have the reporter read--

1736
02:05:34,444 --> 02:05:37,362
I know what I said!
I don't have to have it read back--

1737
02:05:37,530 --> 02:05:41,033
Then why the two orders?
Colonel?

1738
02:05:43,161 --> 02:05:45,621
Sometimes men take matters
into their own hands.

1739
02:05:45,788 --> 02:05:48,707
No, sir. You made it clear
your men never do.

1740
02:05:48,875 --> 02:05:53,587
Your men follow orders or people die.
So Santiago wasn't in danger, right?

1741
02:05:53,755 --> 02:05:55,881
You snotty little bastard.

1742
02:05:56,049 --> 02:05:57,466
ROSS:
Your Honor, I ask for a recess.

1743
02:05:57,634 --> 02:05:59,259
I'd like an answer.

1744
02:05:59,427 --> 02:06:01,220
The court will wait for an answer.

1745
02:06:02,055 --> 02:06:07,351
If Lieutenant Kendrick gave
an order that Santiago wasn't
to be touched,

1746
02:06:07,518 --> 02:06:12,272
then why did he have to be
transferred? Colonel?

1747
02:06:12,440 --> 02:06:16,193
Kendrick ordered a Code Red
because that's what you told
him to do!

1748
02:06:16,361 --> 02:06:17,486
ROSS:
Object!

1749
02:06:17,654 --> 02:06:23,867
And when it went bad,
you signed a phony transfer
and doctored the logs!

1750
02:06:24,035 --> 02:06:25,702
You coerced the doctor!

1751
02:06:25,870 --> 02:06:28,997
Colonel Jessep, did you
order the Code Red?

1752
02:06:29,165 --> 02:06:32,417
You don't have to answer that.
I'll answer the question.

1753
02:06:32,585 --> 02:06:34,836
You want answers?
I think I'm entitled!

1754
02:06:35,004 --> 02:06:37,256
You want answers?
I want the truth!

1755
02:06:37,423 --> 02:06:40,550
You can't handle the truth!

1756
02:06:40,718 --> 02:06:45,013
Son, we live in a world that has walls,
and those walls have to be guarded
by men with guns.

1757
02:06:45,181 --> 02:06:49,685
Who's gonna do it? You?
You, Lieutenant Weinberg?

1758
02:06:49,852 --> 02:06:53,689
I have a greater responsibility
than you can possibly fathom.

1759
02:06:53,856 --> 02:06:57,192
You weep for Santiago
and you curse the Marines.

1760
02:06:57,360 --> 02:07:01,196
You have that luxury. The luxury
of not knowing what I know:

1761
02:07:01,364 --> 02:07:05,325
That Santiago's death, while
tragic, probably saved lives.

1762
02:07:05,493 --> 02:07:11,290
And my existence, while grotesque
and incomprehensible to you,
saves lives!

1763
02:07:11,457 --> 02:07:13,417
You don't want the truth
because deep down,

1764
02:07:13,584 --> 02:07:15,711
in places you don't
talk about at parties,

1765
02:07:15,878 --> 02:07:20,590
you want me on that wall.
You need me on that wall.

1766
02:07:20,758 --> 02:07:25,262
We use words like honor,
code, loyalty.

1767
02:07:25,430 --> 02:07:28,849
We use them as the backbone
of a life spent defending something.

1768
02:07:29,017 --> 02:07:31,059
You use them as a punch line!

1769
02:07:31,227 --> 02:07:34,980
I have neither the time nor
inclination to explain myself

1770
02:07:35,148 --> 02:07:39,609
to a man who rises and sleeps
under the blanket of the freedom
I provide,

1771
02:07:39,777 --> 02:07:42,154
and then questions the manner
in which I provide it!

1772
02:07:42,322 --> 02:07:45,365
I would rather you just said
"thank you" and went on your way.

1773
02:07:45,533 --> 02:07:49,286
Otherwise, I suggest you pick up
a weapon and stand a post.

1774
02:07:49,454 --> 02:07:54,249
Either way, I don't give a damn
what you think you are entitled to!

1775
02:07:54,417 --> 02:07:56,918
Did you order the Code Red?
I did the job--

1776
02:07:57,086 --> 02:08:00,422
Did you order the Code Red?
You're goddamn right I did!

1777
02:08:11,476 --> 02:08:14,311
I suggest the members
be dismissed

1778
02:08:14,479 --> 02:08:17,898
so we can move
to an article 39A session.

1779
02:08:18,066 --> 02:08:22,694
The witness has rights.
Captain Ross?

1780
02:08:27,241 --> 02:08:28,867
Jack?

1781
02:08:33,873 --> 02:08:37,250
The members of the court will
retire until further instructed.

1784
02:08:42,924 --> 02:08:46,510
Colonel, what's going on?
I did my job, I'd do it again.

1785
02:08:46,677 --> 02:08:51,473
I'm going back to my base.
You're not going anywhere.

1786
02:08:51,641 --> 02:08:55,936

MP: Yes, sir.

1787
02:08:57,188 --> 02:08:59,856
Captain Ross.
What the hell is this?

1788
02:09:00,108 --> 02:09:02,484
Colonel Jessep,
you have the right
to remain silent.

1789
02:09:02,652 --> 02:09:07,072
I'm being charged with a crime?
Is that what this is?

1790
02:09:07,240 --> 02:09:10,492
I'm being charged
with a crime?

1791
02:09:10,660 --> 02:09:14,704
This is funny,
that's what this is! This is--

1792
02:09:14,872 --> 02:09:18,166
I'm gonna rip the eyes out of your
head and piss in your dead skull!

1793
02:09:18,334 --> 02:09:20,252
You fucked with
the wrong Marine!

1794
02:09:20,420 --> 02:09:24,881
ROSS: Colonel Jessep,
do you understand your rights?

1795
02:09:29,846 --> 02:09:32,472
You fucking people.

1796
02:09:32,640 --> 02:09:35,517
You have no idea
how to defend a nation.

1797
02:09:36,185 --> 02:09:41,148
All you did was weaken a country
today, Kaffee. That's all you did.

1798
02:09:41,315 --> 02:09:46,319
You put peoples' lives in
danger. Sweet dreams, son.

1799
02:09:46,487 --> 02:09:48,530
Don't call me son.

1800
02:09:48,698 --> 02:09:52,868
I'm a lawyer, and an officer
in the United States Navy.

1801
02:09:53,035 --> 02:09:55,871
And you're under arrest,
you son of a bitch.

On the charge of conduct
unbecoming a United States Marine,

1813
02:11:20,915 --> 02:11:26,836
the members find the accused
guilty as charged.

1814
02:11:28,214 --> 02:11:31,466
The accused are sentenced
to time already served

1815

discharged from the Marine Corps.

What did that mean?

1822
02:12:09,964 --> 02:12:14,301
I don't understand.
Colonel Jessep said he
ordered the Code Red.

1823
02:12:14,468 --> 02:12:16,845
I know.
He said he ordered the Code Red.

1824
02:12:17,013 --> 02:12:19,431
What did we do wrong?
It's not that simple.

1825
02:12:19,599 --> 02:12:23,351
We did nothing wrong!
Yeah, we did.

1826
02:12:26,439 --> 02:12:31,359
We were supposed to fight
for people who couldn't fight
for themselves.

1827
02:12:31,527 --> 02:12:34,154
We were supposed
to fight for Willy.

BAILIFF:
Lieutenant Kaffee, I have to take
these men for some paperwork.

Ten-hut!
There's an officer on deck.

1833
02:13:39,553 --> 02:13:44,891
Airmen O'Malley and Rodriguez,
what exactly could they testify to?

1834
02:13:45,059 --> 02:13:50,188
Probably that they had absolutely
no recollection of anything.

1835
02:13:50,356 --> 02:13:55,193
Strong witnesses.
And handsome too, didn't you think?

1836
02:13:55,361 --> 02:13:57,904
I'll see you around.
I gotta go arrest Kendrick.
