00:00Executors who prosecute the offenders, these are their stories.
00:08It's Art Deco. We got it in Barcelona on our first anniversary.
00:12There's no point hanging it in the cottage if we'd never spend any time there.
00:16Yeah, the clerk said you were coming out, Marley.
00:19You sent a package from the court for your wife.
00:21Yeah, last-minute conference. Can't let them down.
00:25She was looking forward to a nice break, too.
00:28Uh, this can wait. She'll need help with the banks.
00:33What was that?
00:40It's your car.
00:49Rachel! Pull an ambulance!
00:58Victim, Rachel Callaghan, age 54.
01:06A high court judge.
01:09She lived here for seven years with her husband, Dan, who's gone to hospital with her.
01:13All right, Pete, what have you got?
01:14Uh, she fell here. Took two shots.
01:18A stray bullet hit the far wall. Looks like a 38.
01:21All this for a car?
01:23Car diesel's been circulated to all units.
01:26We've got uniform, checking the nearby CCTV for a possible photo.
01:30The concierge didn't see his face.
01:33Don't worry. He's going to stand out from the crowd.
01:37We found this red dye gel.
01:40He sprays the attacker in the eyes.
01:41He rubs it all over his face.
01:43Doesn't wash off for seven days.
01:46So, finally,
01:48we might actually catch someone red-handed.
02:21Judge Callaghan's car had a GPS tracking device.
02:50Get on to them. Tell them to activate it.
02:53Uh, do, uh, either of you smoke?
02:57No, sir.
02:59God, she'd kill me if I started again.
03:02Did you notice anyone acting suspiciously when you got out of the car?
03:07No. No one.
03:09And your wife was driving, yeah?
03:11No, I was, but we had this mirror,
03:13and Rachel suggested that I take it in while she parked the car.
03:17Whereabouts were you travelling from?
03:20Lavanagh and Suffolk.
03:21We've got a cottage there.
03:24We came back early.
03:25You don't expect this kind of thing to happen on your doorstep.
03:28No.
03:28Mr. Callaghan.
03:31Your wife came through surgery.
03:34Is she going to be okay?
03:35Well, we won't be able to get a clear idea of her prognosis
03:38until she stabilizes.
03:40She is still unconscious.
03:42Mr. Callaghan.
03:43Mr. Callaghan.
03:43Mr. Callaghan.
03:44Oh, God.
03:46How's it, Mills?
03:47How's Mom?
03:47What happened?
03:49She's going to be all right.
03:51Do you want to call this way?
03:52The police said she'd get shot.
03:54She's a fighter shot.
04:02The signal from the tracking device stopped here.
04:09Where's the car?
04:10Good question.
04:12The trace led here?
04:12Which is weird, this man, all this.
04:14What time did you get it?
04:1616.23.
04:18I made a note of it.
04:20Very good.
04:21Make sure you get hold of the camera footage, yeah?
04:25I reckon maybe he's changed the plates.
04:29Nothing gets past me, sir.
04:31Well, nothing gets past PC Griffin,
04:35except maybe a stolen Merc.
04:37There it is.
04:38Time code 16.22.
04:40That's the Merc going along Heathfield Road.
04:43And that's Sherlock going the other way.
04:45There are two men in this car.
04:47He had help.
04:48We must have met his psychic at the warehouse.
04:51I can't see their faces, though.
04:52We took a close-up of the plates.
04:54They ran them through PNC.
04:56They're cloned.
04:57We can't have women gunned down on their doorstep because of a car.
05:01Well, maybe if she'd just let him take the car.
05:03Well, maybe if she wasn't thinking straight with a gun to her head.
05:08How much do you love me?
05:10ANPR cameras have picked up the Mercedes plates.
05:13Car's parked in the city.
05:15So, why are you still here?
05:17I'll keep going as you could be the third Mrs. Brooks.
05:20Or the first Mrs. Deadman.
05:214-3-4-5-A-2-0-7-7-8-1.
05:32House.
05:34That's the judge's motor.
05:35Look, it's mine.
05:37I've got the documents.
05:39Good.
05:40You can bring them to the station with you.
05:42Yeah, we've got the Merc.
05:44Get forensics on its freight away.
05:45I didn't know the papers were forged.
05:50I had no idea it was stolen.
05:53You just thought you met a very generous car dealer.
05:57A brand new Mercedes-Benz, market price 56 grand, and you get it for eight?
06:03Come on, Nick.
06:04When did you buy it?
06:06Yesterday.
06:07Who did you buy it from?
06:08Don't know his name.
06:09And what did he look like?
06:11Okay, all these people are on file with a stolen vehicle squad.
06:16You really don't want to mess these people around.
06:17And you don't want to be messing with us either, Nick.
06:20A high court judge has been shot for this car.
06:23Exactly.
06:23So what are they going to do to me?
06:25Well, at this rate, you might be safe and sound behind bars.
06:28She's paralysed.
06:30She might die.
06:31And you've been driving around in her stolen car.
06:33It's not looking good for you, Nick.
06:37Never should have gotten involved.
06:38Well, how did you get involved?
06:40I was a banker.
06:41I got hammered in the recession, got into debt, and had to trade down my car.
06:46I've just started over as an independent financial advisor.
06:49Would you take financial advice off someone who drove around in a hatchback?
06:54Say you needed the wheels to look the part.
06:57There's also this woman, Danny.
06:59She's a little out of my league.
07:04Well, I doubt she'll give up her Saturdays to come and visit you in the nick, Nick.
07:08So, about the car.
07:11What?
07:12I asked around, found out about the Mercedes, got some cash together, and met this guy in
07:18a scrapyard last night in Putney.
07:21Is he in the album?
07:23Just have a look, all right?
07:24Here we go.
07:26No.
07:26Oh.
07:27No.
07:29No.
07:37That's it.
07:42Now, did he have red paint on his face?
07:45No.
07:46An officer will show you out.
07:48Will I get my money back?
07:50I doubt it.
07:51I was supposed to take Danny out, didn't I?
07:54Tell her you got green.
07:56Bought a bike.
08:04All right, man.
08:05See you, though.
08:08All close!
08:08All close!
08:09Get away!
08:10Get away!
08:11We've cleared!
08:13Stay clear!
08:13Stay clear!
08:15Stay clear!
08:15Stay clear!
08:16Get away!
08:17Get out of the way!
08:18Get out of the way!
08:18Leave it, lads.
08:26I never learn.
08:39What are you doing?
08:41The police left for you, man.
08:43Wait!
08:44Rising fleet!
08:46I'm arresting you on suspicion of handling stolen.
08:48Good.
08:53That's him.
08:53That's Eddie Wade.
08:55Look, he's the one you want, yeah?
08:57Not me.
08:58So where is he, Marty?
08:59I don't know.
09:00Marty, we found a gun under the floorboards of your flat.
09:04It's in the lab right now.
09:05If it's the same gun used to shoot the judge, you're in trouble, son.
09:08Look, I didn't shoot no judge, did I?
09:10But you sold the car on for Eddie Wade.
09:12So you are involved, which means you aided and abetted a potential murderer.
09:18I knew nothing about that.
09:21Yeah, we used guns to scare people, but that's it.
09:24We don't shoot them.
09:26There's no need to.
09:27Eddie did, though, Marty.
09:29And he's not here.
09:30So unless you want to take the rap for what he did, I suggest you tell us everything you know.
09:36Look, he'd already stolen the car when he asked me to help him.
09:40He had paint on his face.
09:42He needed me to take the car down to some dealer he had lined up.
09:45It was to be shipped abroad.
09:47So then why is the car still in London?
09:50Because I knew some city wanker who was looking for a past set of wheels.
09:558,000 cash in hand.
09:57So I do the deal with him.
09:58I go back to Eddie or Jeff, don't he?
10:00He kicks off.
10:03And kicks off about what?
10:06It was supposed to be shipped to Africa.
10:09I told him I got us a lot more cash for it,
10:12and he said it was on to something a lot bigger that had nothing to do with the Mercedes.
10:17And I had balls you up.
10:18Balls what up?
10:20What bigger deal?
10:21I don't know.
10:23He just told me to sit and wait for the second half for some payment.
10:2810 grand.
10:33Eddie Wade was supposed to receive a total payment of 20,000 pounds.
10:38He'd already had half as a down payment.
10:40He was expecting the other 10,000 pounds to be delivered to his flat today.
10:45For the stolen car?
10:46No, that was a separate deal.
10:48If it wasn't for the car,
10:51it could be someone paid him to shoot the judge.
10:56Well, it's a possibility.
10:59Before he took off, Eddie gave Marty a mobile phone.
11:03Someone was supposed to call that phone to make the rest of the payment.
11:07Eddie's on the run, gone into hiding, wearing ski goggles to hide the red paint.
11:11So we've got to put out a nationwide search for Eddie the Eagle.
11:17And organise some surveillance for his flat in case he comes back for the money.
11:21If you're right about this, we've got to work out who would want Judge Callahan dead.
11:26Well, they were supposed to be in Suffolk till the weekend.
11:30Whoever it was must have known they were coming back early.
11:32Well, there is one person who knew.
11:35The husband.
11:40No, I don't know him.
11:42What's this about?
11:43Okay, well, what about the name Eddie or Edward Waite?
11:47No, why?
11:48Well, we think someone may have hired him to shoot your wife.
11:53Why would anyone do that?
11:54Because she's a high-profile judge, sir.
11:57Who exactly knew you'd be coming home early?
12:01No one except the clerk and me.
12:08You and your wife getting on, okay?
12:12What?
12:13We do have to ask these questions, sir.
12:15Oh, Mike knew, too.
12:18The concierge.
12:19Maybe he set it up because Rachel didn't tip him enough.
12:22It's not funny, Mr.
12:23Well, you're right, it isn't.
12:25My wife's just been told that she'll never walk again
12:28because of what that bastard did.
12:30And you're suggesting that...
12:32We're not suggesting that...
12:33We've been married for 34 years.
12:35We're not suggesting anything, sir.
12:37We'd just like to eliminate you from our inquiries.
12:41I've given her a painkiller if you want to go and have a couple of minutes.
12:45Sorry, sir.
12:47We'd like to speak to her, lad.
12:59That's him.
13:01Are you sure?
13:02Mrs. Callaghan, we have reason to believe that someone may have paid this man to shoot you.
13:13Oh, that's why.
13:16Why what?
13:17Well, when I got out of the car, I expected him to get into it and just drive away.
13:27But he went on pointing the gun at me.
13:32So, then I realized that he meant to kill me anyway.
13:39What time did you leave Lebanon?
13:41Oh, around half past twelve.
13:44And you got home at twenty to three?
13:48Dan got lost.
13:50We were arguing and, uh...
13:52He was being very childish about my having to come back.
13:58He insisted on taking this tacky old mirror.
14:03And you see, if he hadn't had to get out of the car and take it inside,
14:08the stupid thing,
14:09I might not be lying here now.
14:13And that was Mr. Callaghan's idea.
14:15Yeah.
14:17It's eating him alive.
14:20But I told him
14:22he wasn't to know.
14:25We have one deleted incoming number taken from the phone
14:32that Eddie Wade gave to Marty Flynn.
14:35That call came from a Pazigo mobile to Eddie Wade's phone
14:39at eleven forty-five a.m. the day of the shooting.
14:42Well, that could be the call about them coming home early.
14:45Yeah.
14:45No trace yet.
14:47The phone was bought with cash on Oxford Street two Saturdays ago.
14:50The sales girl doesn't remember the buyer,
14:53so we're checking the CCTV cameras.
14:55The Callaghan's left Lavenham at twelve-thirty p.m.
14:59Mr. C wasn't very happy by all accounts.
15:02He wanted them to spend more time together.
15:04So he was feeling neglected.
15:07Well, neglected enough to want to kill her.
15:09You'd be surprised how resentment confessed her in a marriage.
15:13Well, after listening to him.
15:16I don't see it.
15:18No, I think he might actually love her.
15:19Why don't we go and talk to the judge's clerk?
15:23Find out who knew that she was on her way home.
15:25Maybe someone else did it.
15:26And that way, Matt, his romantic ideals can remain intact.
15:31Come on, social.
15:32It was a conference on reporting restrictions on children's cases.
15:41It's been a nightmare to arrange.
15:43I was told it would be brought forward if Judge Callaghan could attend.
15:47And what time did you let her know?
15:51Just after eleven-thirty that Monday morning.
15:57I felt bad.
15:59It was her first break in over a year.
16:01So who knew that she was going to attend the conference?
16:04It was a busy morning.
16:07I confirmed her attendance that afternoon.
16:13But none of these could have known before 11.45
16:16that Judge Callaghan had changed her plans and was coming home early.
16:20No.
16:21Andrea, we're looking at the possibility that this is an attempted murder.
16:26What?
16:27So did the judge mention to you at all that she was being threatened?
16:31A good few times.
16:32She rules on cases with hugely emotive issues
16:37and she's on the front line.
16:39Could we have a look at her ongoing case files?
16:44Listen to this.
16:46Yeah, call.
16:47The judge was building a case against a Walter Reeves, a site manager.
16:53Now, he basically runs a protection racket on service companies.
16:57He gets them the gig on new properties
16:59in exchange for the old cash in the brown ember oak.
17:02The judge was about to ruin him.
17:04And why did she get involved?
17:06Well, one of the companies that Walter Reeves has got in his pocket
17:09is called Aeroclear.
17:13They're an aircon installation company.
17:15They do the repairs on the building the judge lives in
17:19and Eddie Wade worked for Aeroclear up until three years ago.
17:23Now, the chances are Reeves could have known Wade and asked him to put the judge out of action.
17:29Bingo.
17:29But Reeves and Wade couldn't have known that the judge was coming back early, so who else knew?
17:34The concierge knew.
17:36When I first got my job at the apartment block, I tried to change the aircon repair company.
17:40And Walter Reeves sent a couple of heavies round to change my mind.
17:47And did you do what he said?
17:49Are you still with Aeroclear?
17:51Yes.
17:51Right, so you're in his pocket.
17:53He's a nasty piece of work.
17:57And I've got family.
17:58I don't want to give evidence.
18:01Evidence about what, Mike?
18:05Did you tell Walter Reeves that the judge was coming back early on Monday?
18:09No.
18:11I was the one who blew the whistle on him and said that he was taking backhanders.
18:16After that, she started digging around.
18:18Sorry, if you blew the whistle on him, then why don't you appear in the judge's case file?
18:24Because she didn't want me involved for my own protection.
18:34Believe me, I'd love to help you put Walter Reeves away.
18:38I've been running Aeroclear for years and Walter's been a thorn in my side the whole time.
18:44But Eddie Wade only did commercial work, and while it was strictly residential, I don't see how their paths would have crossed.
18:53So, Mr Smith, one second.
18:56You're saying that Eddie Wade wouldn't have done any work on Judge Callahan's building?
19:00No, we got the maintenance contract seven years ago on her husband's recommendation.
19:05Dan Callahan? You know him?
19:07We used to do a lot of work together before he and Eddie fell out.
19:11Excuse me.
19:13Hello?
19:14Dan Callahan designed a shopping mall in Fenton Quay's White Elephant.
19:20Total disaster.
19:21Eddie Wade was in charge of installing the aircon system.
19:25And was being a right pain in the arse.
19:27Yeah, Callahan was all over him making sure he did the job properly, only he swears to us he's never heard of him.
19:33Nobody forgets a lousy co-worker.
19:36No, I'll bear that in mind.
19:40Or the man you pay to kill your wife.
19:42I'd just like to come in, sir.
19:46Take a seat, Mr Callahan.
19:49Thanks for coming in.
19:53I know this must be a pretty tough time for you right now.
19:57Look, I'm sorry about how I reacted before.
20:01It's just the idea of someone paying to kill my wife.
20:05So I can't understand.
20:09Mr Callahan, just a couple of questions, okay?
20:12Do you recognize this man?
20:17He's the man who shot my wife.
20:22He showed me this photo at the hospital.
20:24Should I have him before then?
20:27No.
20:28So you've never seen this man before?
20:30No.
20:32Okay.
20:34Three years ago you designed the mini shopping mall invention keys, didn't you, Mr Callahan?
20:40What's that got to do with anything?
20:41Eddie Wade, supervise the installation of the air contest.
20:45Eddie Wade's friends say this is a very good likeness of him.
20:51He stole a car from the site foreman.
20:53He lost his job.
20:57I can't place him.
20:58Or the name, Eddie Wade.
21:01Why would I know his last name?
21:04Well, Mr Callahan, you see, according to the foreman on that job, you left instructions almost every day for this man.
21:14The instructions were inside envelopes with the name Eddie Wade written on them.
21:19That was three years ago.
21:20Your last big commercial commission.
21:23Yes.
21:24Well, the workforce let me down.
21:26Well, I'm pretty sure if a workforce had let me down, I would remember one of the supervisors.
21:32Yes.
21:34Well, I'm exhausted.
21:37Whose idea was it to unload the mirror?
21:42That was my wife's.
21:45Sorry, Mum.
21:46Okay.
21:56She says it was your idea.
22:02She also says that you've been arguing that day.
22:04That doesn't mean I wanted her dead.
22:08I can't believe you're doing this.
22:11Where were you on the Saturday before you went away?
22:16I went shopping in Oxford Street for Rachel's birthday.
22:20What did you get her?
22:21I couldn't find anything.
22:23She...
22:23She was very cheesy.
22:28I'm sorry.
22:31I'm really sorry.
22:32It's Rachel.
22:34She's lost the use of her other kidney and...
22:37Something to do with her skin.
22:41Some side effect.
22:44She's getting worse.
22:47We're sorry to hear that.
22:48I've got the cold.
22:51She leads me.
22:53I'm not sure she needs you anywhere near her right now, sir.
22:56I'm arresting you on suspicion of conspiracy to commit murder.
23:06My husband was with me when I learned we had to return to the city.
23:10And he was with me continuously thereafter.
23:14He had no opportunity to make a phone call and arrange the incident.
23:22When did you take this statement from Judge Callaghan?
23:25Last night, my lady, after my client was arrested.
23:28So my learned colleague surprises the victim with the news and extracts this statement from her while she's in shock.
23:35In shock because of the unfairness of the charge.
23:40The phone call only lasted two minutes and was made from a mobile.
23:44The defendant could have slipped off to the bathroom.
23:46The call was not made from the defendant's mobile.
23:50This is a bail hearing, not a trial.
23:54Your job here today, Miss Phillips, is to state your objections to bail.
23:59The Crown strongly objects to bail on the grounds that the defendant will try and interfere with the witness, namely his wife.
24:06That's hardly likely, as she's the one giving him the alibi.
24:11My client is willing to offer a security of 50,000 pounds, my lady.
24:16My lady, Mr. Callaghan, is a successful architect. That's nothing to him.
24:21Most of the Callaghan's money is tied up in trusts.
24:25What's accessible now is earmarked for her care.
24:30I am willing to grant bail on certain conditions.
24:35The first being a surety of 50,000 pounds.
24:40Judge Mary Hall is standing by her colleague.
24:44Who's standing by her man.
24:47She must be reeling.
24:48She can't accept that our husband would do that to her.
24:51Well, according to Slimy Simon, Dan Callaghan doesn't have access to his wife's riches.
24:57He pretty much gave him a motive while getting him bail.
25:00He got bail because of his wife's alibi.
25:03If we've got anything else on him, what about his financial records?
25:06Has anything gone out?
25:07The only big withdrawal of late from his personal account is 400 pounds.
25:13He was in Oxford Street the day the page-you-go phone was bought.
25:17Which still hasn't been traced.
25:19He lied about knowing Eddie Wade.
25:21Who still can't be found.
25:23So what the hell have we got?
25:25Nothing.
25:28Apart from circumstantial and the alibi of a hugely respected high court judge.
25:33Who happens to be a very proud woman.
25:36That could be why she's lying.
25:38You're okay, George?
25:44Yeah?
25:46Why shouldn't I be?
25:48What part of continuously don't you understand?
26:09He didn't go into any other room.
26:11No.
26:13No.
26:13We were listening to the radio when my clock rang.
26:18And I knew that he'd be upset.
26:21So I didn't tell him that we had to leave early.
26:26Until the program ended at midday.
26:30Now the call to the man who shot me was made at 11.45.
26:36Am I right?
26:44The kids will be here soon.
26:48No.
26:49I don't think so.
26:51It's not the place for them.
26:53Really.
26:56My mother's very tired.
26:58It was her treatment.
26:59I don't need you to speak for me, Lindsay.
27:01Lindsay.
27:06This is Calhan.
27:10Your husband knew the man who shot you and he lied about that.
27:15He lied about whose idea it was to park the car.
27:20If you were before me in court right now,
27:24I would lose no time in dismissing your case
27:28on the grounds of weak and wholly insubstantial evidence.
27:35Mom.
27:35If you prosecute my husband,
27:39I will give evidence on his behalf.
27:49Today is her birthday.
27:51Why are you trying to destroy what little she has left?
27:59She's going through all this
28:00and Dad's not even allowed to see her.
28:02How is their relationship, Lindsay?
28:04Did she talk to him like she talks to you?
28:08I think she's allowed to be a bit ratty
28:10under the circumstances.
28:12Did he mind that she was a workaholic?
28:14Was.
28:17She intends to sue the hospital
28:19for causing renal failure.
28:26Got it wrong.
28:29Dad adores her.
28:31Why would he do this to her?
28:33To get access to her money.
28:36Her insurance and her estate goes to my kids.
28:39Now I have to tell them
28:46that their gran doesn't want to see them.
28:53Mommy!
28:54Mommy!
29:00So we don't even have a financial motive?
29:03No, but Uniform have turned up an eyewitness.
29:05Wendy Carey, she lives on Mill Lane
29:09where the Callaghan's cottage is.
29:11Says she was driving past their cottage
29:13at around 11.50 that Monday.
29:16She saw Dan Callaghan in the garden
29:19wearing his running shorts.
29:20The call to Wendy Wade was made at 11.45.
29:23Whereas Mrs. Callaghan and Mrs. said
29:25they were together inside at that time.
29:28Mrs. Carey also said she threw a small party
29:30in honour of Rachel's promotion the night before.
29:33Dan Callaghan was drunk,
29:35introducing himself to everyone
29:37as Mr. Rachel Callaghan,
29:39soon to be Lady Justice's wife.
29:41Ouch.
29:43Not bitter at all, then.
29:44He and his wife ended up arguing.
29:46Sounds like every married couple I know.
29:49Him being outside isn't enough.
29:50We need motive.
29:52Why would an ordinarily loving husband
29:55suddenly do this?
29:56Well, she had been promoted.
29:58Yeah, not for the first time.
30:00So why snap now?
30:01What changed?
30:06I had to let Dan go.
30:09Couldn't carry him any longer,
30:10not in this financial climate.
30:12He'd lost his job here.
30:14He was a libel, it was.
30:16Didn't even have to buy him out.
30:19He owed this firm enough.
30:21See, Dan's a perfectionist.
30:23The designs were all about him
30:26making his mark.
30:27He wouldn't listen to the client's needs
30:29or budgetary restraints.
30:32His wife never said anything
30:33about him losing his job.
30:35She doesn't know.
30:36She came here a few weeks back
30:37asking to speak to him.
30:39I had to make some excuse
30:40about him talking to the client.
30:43He won that
30:45when he restored a Georgian house
30:47on Brick Lane,
30:48not long after he started out.
30:51Was he married, then?
30:51He was funding Rachel
30:53through law school.
30:54Talk about role reversal.
30:58Would you say Dan
30:59resented his wife?
31:02He wanted to be proud of him.
31:04She was meant to retire this year.
31:06And they put a deposit
31:08on a plot of land
31:09in the Lake District
31:10so they could sell their properties
31:11and Dan could build
31:13their dream home.
31:14But then she got promoted.
31:16The deposit
31:18for the Lake District plot
31:19was £25,000.
31:21So Dan Callaghan
31:23got it back
31:23for £20,000 in cash.
31:26He must have known
31:27men with him
31:27you're cashing hand
31:28to pay Eddie White.
31:30He'd already lost his job.
31:32It pinned his hopes
31:33on Rachel's retirement,
31:35their future together.
31:36She drops the bombshell
31:37about her retirement.
31:39He started planning her death.
31:41Steal.
31:45Yeah, go ahead.
31:51Great.
31:52Yeah, thanks for letting me know.
31:55The call
31:56that was made
31:56to Eddie Wade,
31:57cell size analysis,
31:59places a signal
32:00in Lavenham.
32:01The phone was used
32:02within 500 metres
32:03of the Callaghan's cottage.
32:06She's going to have to
32:06accept it was him now.
32:08Have you found the phone?
32:10No.
32:12And did anybody
32:13see my husband
32:16on the phone?
32:17No witnesses as yet.
32:19So,
32:21it's obvious
32:22what happened,
32:23isn't it?
32:24Someone was following us
32:26and they saw us
32:28loading up the car
32:31and they made the call.
32:34You said you were listening
32:35to the radio
32:36at the time.
32:38We'd had an argument
32:41and Dan went outside
32:45to cool off.
32:47So he did leave your side?
32:49But I could see him
32:50all the time
32:52through the window.
32:55Why was he
32:55in his running shorts?
32:57Oh, because
32:58he wears them
32:59around the house.
33:01What about the man
33:02who pulled the trigger?
33:04Who put me here?
33:05He's the one
33:06who should be brought
33:07to justice.
33:09Someone hired him.
33:10Mom doesn't need this.
33:12They can't get
33:13her medication right.
33:14They have to do
33:15more tests.
33:16She's getting weaker
33:17by the day.
33:18I know
33:19my husband
33:20better than anyone.
33:22Did you know
33:23he'd lost his job?
33:24What?
33:31For five weeks
33:33he's been
33:34pretending
33:34to go to work.
33:36Maybe you didn't know
33:37him as well
33:38as you thought,
33:39Mrs. Culleran.
33:39Rachel Callahan
33:54is lying.
33:59She knows it was him.
34:00We told her
34:01the hard facts.
34:04So I heard.
34:05She wouldn't listen.
34:09I think the general
34:10just sank.
34:14I've just heard
34:15from the hospital.
34:18Rachel Callahan
34:19has asked her doctors
34:20to withdraw
34:22her medication.
34:26She wants to die.
34:28Crown is concerned
34:33that the initial
34:34statement made
34:35and signed
34:36by the victim
34:36is false.
34:37We want the opportunity
34:38to cross-examine
34:39Mrs. Rachel Callahan
34:40on video.
34:41My lady,
34:42the victim
34:43is in a great
34:44deal of pain.
34:45To cross-examine her
34:47in her hospital bed
34:49would be a terrible
34:50violation of her privacy.
34:53However,
34:54she is prepared
34:55to give evidence
34:57one last time
34:58about what happened
35:00on the day in question.
35:02My lady,
35:03she will simply amend
35:04her story
35:04to put her husband
35:05in the clear.
35:06We need the opportunity
35:07to test this evidence
35:08so the jury
35:09can make up
35:10their own minds.
35:11I've seen you play
35:12cat and mouse
35:13in court,
35:14Mr. Steele.
35:15You're merciless enough
35:16on the able-bodied.
35:18If you don't let me do this,
35:20Dan Callahan
35:20gets exactly
35:21what he wants.
35:23His wife's alibi
35:24followed by her
35:25death.
35:26She is one of the
35:27most powerful women
35:28in chambers,
35:29but she's not
35:30respecting the law.
35:31She's allowing her
35:31husband to go unpunished
35:33and that's not
35:33her decision to make.
35:35This cannot go
35:36unchallenged,
35:37my lady.
35:41I will allow it.
35:44My lady,
35:45I must object.
35:47Where would we be
35:48without setting
35:49precedence,
35:50Mr. Wheeler?
35:53I will be watching you.
35:55If you push
35:57Judge Callahan
35:58one step too far,
36:01I will stop
36:03proceedings.
36:08Just think
36:09what you're asking for.
36:11Doctors are going to
36:12stop her treatment
36:13tomorrow.
36:14She's already broken.
36:15Then the one thing
36:16we can salvage
36:17from this mess
36:18is that Dan Callahan
36:19is locked up
36:20for what he did.
36:21Yes,
36:21but you're going to be
36:22exposing her
36:23in front of a colleague.
36:24She's given everything
36:25for her career.
36:26So did I.
36:27Having paid that price,
36:29I wouldn't choose to lie.
36:31Before this happened,
36:32she would have said
36:33the same thing.
36:34George,
36:34I promise I'll be careful.
36:38No matter how many times
36:41you put this to me,
36:42the answer
36:45is the same.
36:48Dan
36:48didn't go out
36:50of my sight.
36:52So somebody
36:53must have been
36:54watching us.
36:56And you started
36:57loading up the car
36:58at 11.50.
37:01The eyewitness
37:02didn't see any sign
37:03of you packing.
37:06Well,
37:06there's your answer.
37:08So how did this
37:09mystery someone else
37:11know you were
37:11leaving early?
37:14Whose idea was it
37:16that you parked
37:17the car that day?
37:18Mine.
37:19You told the police
37:20it was your husband's idea.
37:22Why are you
37:22changing your story?
37:24Because I'm doped
37:25up to the eyeballs.
37:31Why are you
37:31protecting your husband,
37:33Mrs. Callahan?
37:34Because he's innocent.
37:39Is it fair to say
37:40that there had been
37:41a breakdown
37:42of communication
37:43in your marriage?
37:45What is your point,
37:47Mr. Steele?
37:49Your husband
37:49couldn't tell you
37:50he'd lost his job.
37:53That didn't matter.
37:57He was designing
37:58our dream home.
38:02Did you know
38:03he'd taken back
38:03the deposit
38:04for the plot of land
38:05after the news
38:07of your promotion?
38:12£20,000
38:13in cash.
38:17Spare me
38:18the shock
38:19tactics.
38:21It's a cheap
38:22trick.
38:24Mrs. Callahan,
38:26it is the exact
38:27sum of money
38:28that the man
38:29who shot you
38:30was promised
38:31if he killed you.
38:32I think we should
38:33stop, my lady.
38:35The witness
38:35is clearly distressed.
38:37Don't patronise me,
38:39Mr. Wheeler.
38:41Are you all right
38:42to continue?
38:45Yes.
38:50Step lightly,
38:51Mr. Steele.
38:53Mrs. Callahan,
38:54may I remind you
38:55that not only
38:56are you under oath
38:57here today,
38:58but that you also
38:59took an oath
38:5914 years ago
39:00when you became
39:01a judge?
39:02I am fully aware
39:03of that.
39:04Is it fair to say
39:05that you have
39:06devoted your life
39:08to the law?
39:09Yes.
39:11The law is where
39:12your true loyalty lies.
39:14You've sacrificed
39:16everything else,
39:17home life,
39:18your relationships
39:19with your husband,
39:20your daughter,
39:20your grandchildren.
39:21I thought I was here
39:23as a witness
39:24to the defense,
39:26not on trial
39:27for being a lousy
39:28wife and mother.
39:29It is also
39:31fair to say
39:32that I protected
39:34thousands of children
39:36during my time
39:37as a judge
39:37and put many
39:39a dangerous criminal
39:41behind bars.
39:43Then how can you bear
39:44for this to be
39:46your dying act,
39:48Mrs. Callahan?
39:49Lying in a court of law,
39:51committing perjury,
39:53allowing a crime to...
39:54allowing the man
39:59who organized
40:00your murder
40:01to walk free.
40:03You've done that
40:03by arresting
40:04the wrong man.
40:06I'm completely
40:06at a loss.
40:07Then we should end
40:08this now,
40:09my baby.
40:10I mean,
40:10what would you do?
40:11I'm sorry.
40:12What would you do
40:13if you were me?
40:14Imagine this was happening
40:16to someone in your court.
40:17Wouldn't you want justice?
40:19Wouldn't you want
40:20that woman
40:21to tell the truth?
40:22Wouldn't you tell her
40:23not to be ashamed,
40:24remind her
40:25that she is the victim here,
40:27that none of this
40:28is her fault?
40:29Of course.
40:33Then please,
40:35tell me the truth,
40:36Mrs. Callahan.
40:38Can you be certain
40:40that you could see
40:41your husband
40:42at 11.45
40:43when the call was made
40:44on the day in question?
40:51Yes.
41:02I could see.
41:04I'm sure of it.
41:08Why are you letting him
41:09get away with this?
41:10You have your answer,
41:11Mr. Stone.
41:12A high court judge
41:13cannot be relied upon
41:14to uphold the law.
41:16That is in mind.
41:16How can you betray
41:17everything you believe in?
41:18I'm ending this cross-examination
41:20right now.
41:21We've taken up
41:22enough of this witness's
41:23precious time.
41:24I'm truly sorry,
41:26Judge Callahan,
41:27for everything.
41:33Now that little exercise
41:35has proved futile,
41:37I expect you'll be
41:38dropping the charges.
41:39Not a chance.
41:44It's fine by me.
41:45I've got what I need
41:47to get my clarity.
41:50Judge Hall?
41:51Yes, Mr. Wheeler?
41:54She's played right
41:55into her husband's hands.
41:59Did she stick to her story?
42:02Yes.
42:06You know it was your dad,
42:08don't you?
42:10So does she.
42:13Deep down.
42:15But she'll never admit that
42:18because she can't admit it
42:20to herself.
42:22Maybe she feels guilty
42:23by not seeing how unhappy
42:26he was.
42:27She was always so busy.
42:31Dad spent my whole childhood
42:33stopping me from disturbing her.
42:38But I kept trying to get
42:39her attention.
42:39And so did he.
42:43He was counting the days
42:45to her retirement.
42:47Do you want your dad
42:48to be held accountable?
42:56What I really want
42:57is for her to see me
43:01and my kids
43:04and think we're worth
43:08living for?
43:08room two.
43:18She's going into renal.
43:20What's wrong?
43:21Pay to the on-call
43:21to the consultant immediately.
43:23She's disconnected
43:23her dialysis machine.
43:25Okay, let's go.
43:28Mom!
43:28Mom!
43:29Let's have five milligrams
43:29of morphine
43:30and 50 milligrams
43:32of cyclozane.
43:33But good access,
43:34stable and prostatum
43:37and resitified.
43:38Oxygen on
43:39as to cure all her life.
43:41You're challenging
43:42Judge Callaghan's
43:44mental capacity
43:45as a witness.
43:46She attempted suicide,
43:48my lady.
43:49She's clearly
43:50far too depressed
43:51to think rationally.
43:52I would like her
43:54to be examined
43:54by our psychiatrist,
43:56Dr. Armitage.
43:58My learned friend
44:00is resorting
44:01to underhand tactics
44:03to have this piece
44:04of evidence
44:05disregarded, my lady.
44:07Moreover,
44:08this would be
44:09an infringement
44:09of her human rights
44:11in so much
44:12as it will have
44:13a bearing
44:14on her choice
44:15to withdraw her treatment.
44:19The doctors
44:20have agreed
44:20to suspend
44:21the withdrawal
44:22of her treatment
44:23until this issue
44:24is resolved.
44:26My only concern
44:28is this criminal case,
44:29I'm afraid,
44:30Mr. Wheeler.
44:32You have my permission
44:33for Dr. Armitage
44:34to examine her.
44:38She didn't answer
44:40a single question,
44:41George.
44:42Just look right past him.
44:45Dr. Armitage
44:46has recommended
44:46that she be put
44:47on suicide watch.
44:49I used to envy her,
44:51you know.
44:52Always ahead of me
44:54on the career ladder,
44:55banging away
44:56at the glass ceiling.
44:58Not anymore.
45:01There's no
45:02schadenfreude.
45:06You shouldn't have
45:06to do this
45:07to your role models.
45:08I am devastated
45:20by the responsibility
45:21of this decision.
45:23But I feel
45:24I have no choice
45:26but to declare
45:28that Judge Rachel Callaghan
45:30is not competent
45:32to give evidence
45:33in the case
45:34of Daniel Callaghan.
45:35This may well
45:37have some bearing
45:38on the Court
45:39of Protection's decision
45:41as to whether
45:42she has the capacity
45:43to terminate
45:44her own treatment.
45:47I can only hope
45:48she will forgive me
45:49for encroaching
45:51on her human rights.
45:52of course.
46:22I should have come sooner.
46:32Is there anything I can do?
46:35Can you get me out of here?
46:43Where shall we go?
46:501980.
46:52Chambers annual ball.
46:57You got kicked up?
46:59Because you got me paralytically drunk.
47:05I haven't touched tequila since.
47:10I still don't get it.
47:17It's such an extreme thing to do.
47:22Maybe she'd been unfaithful.
47:25She was.
47:27Her work.
47:29We've seen people crack like this before.
47:31If I can't have you, no one else will.
47:33But those are crimes of passion, not cold-blooded hits.
47:36How does she deal with that?
47:44We intend to appeal Judge Hall's decision.
47:54Of course you do.
47:56Without Judge Callaghan's evidence, your client stands to go down for a very long time.
48:00Why not just divorce her?
48:02I love her.
48:06You fought for people in your condition to stay alive.
48:11This is new for you, but given time, you could come to terms with it.
48:16George, I can't control my bladder.
48:24I mean, you tell me what I've got to live for.
48:27How can someone who campaigns for human rights be so selfish in their own life?
48:34What's so special about you?
48:36It's okay for anyone else to make do, but not you.
48:40You have a future.
48:41You have your mind.
48:43No.
48:44Not according to the court.
48:47Not after you conspired to rob me of my dignity.
48:54Oh, you lost that the moment you lied for Dan.
48:58Do you know what it feels like to irritate someone because you're not as quick or as smart as they are?
49:06I hear myself whine.
49:09I never used to be like that.
49:11She speaks to me like I'm eight years old.
49:16You know he's guilty.
49:17Otherwise, you would choose to live for his sake.
49:26I know how much he means to you.
49:29Remember I had this awful row about going back.
49:33Don't make a fuss, Dan.
49:36I'd love to lay it around all day and drink wine, but I'm so much better than that.
49:41Because his love for me was the one thing I could rely on outside the law.
49:57Then do the right thing.
50:08Tell me the truth.
50:11We had a row.
50:18And he stormed outside.
50:20I make the call.
50:23I throw the phone.
50:26I burn the number.
50:28I go back to the cottage and she's cross.
50:31I'm so pumped up you wouldn't believe.
50:34Because for once, I'm in control.
50:39And he was gone for about...
50:4420 minutes.
50:46We get to London.
50:50And now I want to stop it.
50:52But I haven't got his number.
50:56So I make a wrong turning.
50:58Pretend we're lost.
51:00He kept getting lost.
51:05Because he was deciding whether or not...
51:11To...
51:12To...
51:16She says,
51:18Can't you do anything right?
51:22I brought the mirror.
51:24I got out.
51:27It still wasn't real.
51:29Till the concierge talked about it.
51:33And I thought...
51:35I thought...
51:37Why not so bad me and Rachel?
51:39Funny thing is...
51:43Now that she needs you...
51:44You can't be there for her.
51:54I think you've admitted it.
51:58There's no need for you to die.
52:00Yes, there is.
52:02Yes, there is.
52:07I want the Court of Protection to declare...
52:11That I have...
52:13The necessary capacity...
52:16To terminate...
52:17My...
52:19Treatment.
52:21And I want you to talk to them.
52:24Rachel...
52:25George, it is not...
52:27Irrational...
52:28To want to die...
52:32When you've been...
52:34Ultimately betrayed...
52:36By the person you love.
52:39Right.
52:46I understand.
52:52Is everything okay?
52:55The Court has decided...
52:57To revoke its decision.
52:59Rachel's treatment...
53:01Has been terminated.
53:03Or belong.
53:06Who's with her?
53:07She wants her husband there.
53:11She wants her husband there.
53:37She wants her husband.
54:00In the world...
54:00Who...
54:01He wants him...
54:02She wants her husband...
54:03You are the thing...
54:05She loves his daughter...
54:05That's one of the...
54:05That's two pairs of husbands i game.
54:06I rejoiced.
