Clayton last year defense attorney Nicole Ray held a press conference following yesterday's verdict of not guilty what happened to John was an unfortunate and horrible accident but I stand here today

anyone y yeah she's been in there with Charlene all morning Charlene mcmanis Deputy Charlene mcmanis I told you she really needs your help [Music] and if I asked you for one good reason why I should

Catherine rafy and you are her [Music] lawyer yes the lawyer here to talk to her now your lawyer's here I didn't order a lawyer no if you don't mind I need a few moments to confer with my client that

for your help they're going to charge you with murder you could be looking at life with no parole and that's assuming the da doesn't seek the death penalty are you even listening to me Mom what do you

your sister so am me here I thought I was the one in trouble did you kill him you did not just ask me that it's a yes or no question mom look I'm aware of how you feel about me not beia first but to accuse me of something like that yes or no go to hell I don't need this thanes two of us nice to see you too Nikki no I can't force someone to hire me you know she's stubborn I'm sorry it was a mistake to get your hopes up can you try again you do know the definition of insanity right yes for what it's worth I'm sorry it didn't work out okay well do you have to leave right away R can you at least wait until after Matthew's wake it's it's going to be small just a few people at the house when tomorrow M Ray yes the deputy asked me to give you this the paperwork you requested great thanks please fine but just until after the weit then I'm gone how about I give you a lift back to Mom's house I rented a car besides I am not staying at that house she's not even going to be home I'll give you a call as soon as I get settled okay promise it is good to see you [Music] again [Music] f [Music] a [Music] damn it Mom you're crying hey some of us are trying to think in here go to hell lady yeah you [Music] too [Music] [Music] hey hi hi it's Nicole yeah listen could you do me a favor could you tell me what the temperature was in eastboro night before last about 10:30 really no I don't miss the humidity at all thank you you too [Music] bye thank you sure Nikki what's wrong I've been going over the police reports and I don't think they were alone what do you mean the night Matthew died I think there was someone else in the house how do you know that the windows in the photo look they're closed exactly but mom never closed the windows in the living room because the house is doesn't have central air exactly so why would they Clos the night Matthew died someone else did it exactly and whoever it is is setting mom up for [Music] murder this is a little problematic right here excuse me you're fired who do you think you are her attorney I just ignore her Chuck she's with me don't worry I'm sure there's plenty of ambulances for you to chase down in County excuse me she's already been set up for Murder She doesn't need to be sent up the river too had enough of these dead end cases anyway enjoy the loss made the headlines congratulations there goes your impartial J pool why are you still here Riley said you were leaving because as much as it pains me to admit it you need me I needed you to 10 years ago funny I could say the same thing about you oh you are just like your father he never knew when to quit either but he did know not to close the windows what in the summer we always left the windows open of course the house doesn't have air conditioning exactly so why were they closed the night Matthew died and since Matthew was lying at the bottom of the stairs at the time I'm guessing he didn't close them either I are you saying it wasn't just a fault I'm saying what if the police are right what if someone did push him down those stairs it just wasn't you who was it then the same person who closed those windows probably when they used them to leave which would explain why the doors had remain locked from the inside wa wait how do they know who used my door fortunately for you one of the few things Matthew did to update the house was installing smart locks which means they know anytime someone came in and if anyone went out Matthew did that for Riley she kept forgetting her keys thought it was stupid myself yeah well it doesn't help your case until you consider the window I don't remember there being anyone else in the house your blood alcohol content was 23 so I doubt you would have remembered your name I had one bad night one be honest you've had a lot of bad nights over the years over the years yes but I had changed maybe if you had stayed in touch you would have known that so what am I supposed to do hire me oh no I can file a petition to see what fingerprints they pulled off the window sill that'll at least find the last person who touched it can't the public defender get that information who Chuck it's too much work no he'll just make a plea deal and move on to the next charity case who needs a lawyer to do the bare minimum well if it's as bad as you say maybe maybe I should make a deal shut up you feel like you've thrown your life away enough already well what would I be looking that life in prison as opposed to death and as tempting as that sounds I owe Riley her mother back her mother admit it you need me Mom I'd ask you how it's going but I know you two all too well look I don't know how but I'm going to scare up another suspect for Matthew's murder I like your mother Nikki I really do but between the argument the threat of violence and her claim not to remember lucky for her unwinable cases happen to be my specialty you should know officially the chief wants to close the case and unofficially I'll look into it if you do I appreciate that now if you'll excuse me I have a wake to attend I was starting to worry you weren't going to make it that mom as warm and welcoming as ever I have no idea how you ever lived with her she changed Matthew was a good influence no one's that much of a miracle worker maybe if you visited or I don't know called every once in a while he would be able to see that it's easy for you to say she didn't stumble in drunk to your high school graduation you didn't almost miss your college interview because she was out busy getting a DUI okay fair enough let's just focus on matth here for the afternoon yeah I'll be honest I barely knew him well let's change that yeah okay I'll introduce you come on stie this is stie stie Nikki Nicole oh the other stepdaughter STI works at the tower I'm sorry for your loss he was a very kind man and he always spoke so highly of you really big time lawyer from the big City every time news of one of your cases hit the internet he must have shared it was a whole town [Music] sweet so good to finally meet you it's nice to have a face with the name I don't know any of these people okay um it's Pastor Atkins he preaches at the church that Matthew took Mom to Mom went the church s ac chir they both do well did um you remember the neighbors from the street um that's Frank Frank and Matthew used to play Pickleball together every Saturday morning seriously yeah m is actually really good he has a trophy exper Wyatt Matthew's brother Wyatt hi I'm Nico n's stepdaughter yet here you are defending his killer I'll just have to see what the jury says I'll have to wait I know she better off where she is excuse me I'm going to go get a drink you must be Nicole I am Kirk Holloway I was your dad's your stepdad's business partner hi Matthew you said you're quite the lawyer even if you're choice of clients is questionable frankly Mr Holloway my choice of clients is my business I respect that not a fan of your own whiskey never actually had a taste for it myself I was just looking for an excuse to get a minute to myself I have a feeling it's a bit awkward huh being here in this house again after you know for her mother to do something like that she hasn't been convicted of anything are they looking at other suspects why you got someone else in [Music] mind you know Matthew used to tell me about the fights that he and Cade were having they were happening more frequently getting more volatile you're just becoming concerned about my mother about all of it her temper of drinking I can't stop thinking maybe if IID said something [Music] sooner I'm going to say hi to some people sorry for your [Music] loss [Music] I see you met Kur I'm duck you seems pretty convinced mom's guilty yeah well she wasn't really fond of him either oh everybody knew that the Distillery was Matthew's baby so what does that make Kirk overpaid mathnerd anyways anytime The Distillery actually showed a profit the expenses had a convenience way of suddenly growing and you think the overpaid math nerd is the culprit I mean hell if it was up to him they would have cashed out years ago now one of us should make a speech before it gets too late I told you I barely knew him okay well only one of us is a professional Shyer so I'm assuming that's supposed to be a compliment always my sister and I would like to thank you all for being with us here today when your father dies of cancer while you're young it's easy to assume that no one could ever follow in his footsteps and then Mom met Matthew kind supportive funny the kind of positive influence that could make a real difference and he was more than just mom's new husband he was an important part of the community an entrepreneur part of the church choir and as I hear it he had quite the backhand at pickle ball more importantly however he was a father figure and I'm sure if he could see us now he'd be smiling feeling all the love and appreciation in the room and I know my mother wishes she could be here to thank you all in person too anyone who knows this family knows that my mother and I have had a challenging relationship so despite whatever issues the two of us might have as both her daughter and attorney I'd like us all to remember that she's still a grieving Widow mourning the loss of her husband and so on behalf of the entire family I'd like us all to raise a glass of Matthew's very own Rafer Ry to his memory we love you and we miss you and you rest in [Music] peace seriously what do they think I'm going make a run for it I wouldn't recommend it makes them feel powerful she's just doing her job she should be doing is looking for who really killed my husband this is just a preliminary hearing no one's on trial yet hopefully it won't even get that far hopefully knowing these small towns my guesses will get a prosecutor used to chasing tigers and job lifters is that Bobby you didn't tell me he's still lived here you never asked so district attorney impressive yeah what can I say some of us opted for the small pond which is why I'm surprised you actually took your mom's case Everyone's entitled to a decent defense that they are and from what I hear you charge quite a pretty penny for it too well if you're interested I could always put in a good word for you at the fart well unfortunately I like to see criminals pay for their crimes and not their attorneys and I prefer to see Justice reserved for the guilty the innocent same old Nikki guess some things never change all right good morning morning honor morning honor no stand up we have gathered here for the arraignment of Catherine rafy m rafy in pursuant to Penal Code 1901 you've been charged with a class a felony murder in the first degree in the death of Matthew rafy counselor has your client read the criminal complaint they have your honor and are they Weare the mandatory sentencing requirement should they be found guilty which is no less than life in prison without the possibility of parole they are very well Mr raffy in the charge of first-degree murder how do you plead not guilty what really order a little louder if you please not guilty very well the trial is set for 900 a.m. Monday the 25th 3 weeks from today your honor the defense moves to request bail for the defendant until the trial the people object de honor your motion is denied Miss Ray then the defense moves to request that the defendant be placed under house arrest until the trial also denied Miss Ray now if there are no further matters to be discussed this hearing is hereby adjourned All Rise let's get to see you again Nikki looks like you'll be seeing even more of me now so now what happens now we get started on your [Music] defense sure so I see your taste and find on and hasn't changed when in Rome so what are we drinking club soda I'll take a beer you got as much as I'd love to sit and reminisce I have a trial to prepare for what are you really doing here Nick she's my mother so in other words you think this little altruistic exercise and futility will somehow make up for years of hatred and resentment and she's innocent okay we both know that's not true you know what your problem is I only have one self-confidence funny I was going to say the same thing about you marital spat Heat of the Moment I could see involuntary manslaughter maybe even second degree but Murder in the First she threatened to kill him she was drunk doesn't mean she didn't mean it I think I know my own mother she tell you anything useful about that night you know me better than to ask something like that I just wondered if she happened to mention the Distillery now's Distillery her Distillery oh you haven't reached that part of your Discovery yet well thank you lucky for you I'm going to share in me I'm all ears 6 weeks ago Matthew RAF amended his will putting his partner out completely that leaves everything to your mother including the Distillery so she gets a new business and he files for unemployment It's a Small Town craftory by the time you deduct expenses Kirk's unemployment check is probably worth more you're right The Distillery was losing money but the land that The Distillery was sitting on that's a different story oh the rumor is Matthew was was in the process of selling it to a developer when he has and how much would a property like that go for ballpark 1.5 that's a hell of a ballpark that's a hell of a motive your turn to share shoot you ever regret what happened between us a relationship leaving we occupi two different worlds always did I just took my leaving to realize him well like you said you have a child to prepare for so leave you to it it's nice seeing you oh so your mom said hi Al it's Nicole I was just wondering have you got any results back on the fingerprints on the window anyone other than my mother not in the system H and what about the autopsy is it possible that those injuries could have been caused by a I don't know maybe he fell damn it no this is absolutely not good news for my case thanks [Music] [Music] anyway when were you going to tell me about The Distillery this Distillery what why husband had just died I didn't think that was important do you expect a jury to believe that it's the truth it's a motive you honestly think I would kill my husband for a tiny craft Distillery no but you might for $1.5 million Matthew handles all of that stuff besides it was Riley's idea to change the will she never trusted Kirk okay look if this is going to work you and me we're going to have to do a better job communicating well I was all set to go with the public defender are you really so proud that you can't even recognize when you need help or is it you're so proud you think everyone needs you well I guess the Apple didn't fall too far from the tree then did it yeah you're right but seriously mom you can't hold anything back no matter how insignificant how inconsequential you think it is I need it all promise promise good because this will pours gasoline all over our dumpster fire of a case what about those fingerprints they weren't a match for anyone in the system and the autopsy showed that the fall was not accidental great mom I have to ask did you push Matthew down those stairs of course not did you do anything that might have inadvertently caused him to fall downstairs no would you even remember it if you had you think I've forgotten what it was like when you'd start drinking at lunch forget to pick me up from school when you'd be out all night long and then you'd come home and forget how you even got there because I sure as hell have not do you actually think I'm capable of something like that you're my daughter no I I am your [Music] lawyer fine if you don't believe me maybe the court will what are you talking about when I take the stand I will just tell them I passed out on the couch I don't know what happened to your stepfather you don't seriously think I'm going to let you testify I have every right to clear my name you get up on that stand it's like handing Bobby O'Donnell a loaded gun I've got nothing to hide they will find something and when they do they will crucify you how do you know because that's what I would [Music] do if it was up to him they would have cashed out years ago no but you might for $1.5 million what about those fingerprints they weren't a match for anyone in the system did you push Matthew down those stairs of course not did you do anything that might have inadvertently caused him to fall downstairs [Music] no could you tell Bobby Nicole Ray is here to see him sure have a seat you just couldn't stay away could you maybe I was just curious to see what East boro's District Attorney's Office actually looked like cushy although the views probably not as nice as the one from your highrise who said my office was on a highrise it's not no it is I was just curious well you really want to be impressed come on back I'll give you the tour this is where the magic happens wow so why you really here you're not even going to offer me a cup of senka first let me guess you asked her about the inheritance and now you realize you took on a losing case I asked about the inheritance and now I'm about to poke some serious holes in your case good luck with that I need the witness statements the reports were in the discovery I want the actual transcripts why you already know they're harmful to your case that's not up to you to decide is it didn't your mother ever tell you not to ask questions you don't want to hear the answers to H must have slipped her mind Helen and Herald there that wasn't so hard was it you should know that I've secured convictions on less than the piece of paper in your hand then I'm sure you won't mind if I reach out and verify the information in here wait did you just accuse me of doctor and their testimony please don't be so sanctimonious you wouldn't be the first district attorney to bend the rules to win a case and you wouldn't be the first defense attorney to Shield their client with a smok screen of red tape I guess I'll just just have to find out won't I fine you want to talk to him be my guest although I should warn you Helen wasn't necessarily the biggest fan of your mother sounds an awful lot like bias to me you don't need me to remind you how difficult your mother was to love no that's right I don't hm did I strike a nerve thanks for the file anytime did you forget something isn't this the moment when you wish me luck and tell me how much I'm going to need it would it change your mind not Mitch then I won't waste my [Music] breath who is it Helen Mullins my name is Nicole rain I'm representing hi I know who you are H who is it Kate's daughter you can call me ni call want to come in I just made some coffee I only need a moment of your time we've already told everything we know to the police yes I've read the transcripts of your conversation then why are you here have you seen this man you two happen to be the only Witnesses we have unfortunately we're not too keen on sticking our noses where they don't belong is that why you called the police the other night because you didn't want to stick your nose where doesn't belong I called the police because I was concerned for Matthew not that it did much good they were fighting they were always fighting can you just take another look please have you seen him around the house Kirk sure He and Matthew worked together what about the night he died no it was just Matthew and your mother you mean it was just the two of them that you could hear thank you for your time you know now that you mention it there is one thing I do remember hearing her shout that night and what was that she said I'm going to kill [Music] you Miss Ray Harold please forget my wife she means well sometimes she can be stubborn as an office I know the typ now you didn't hear this from me couple months back I was more in the line your mother was at work let's just say that um Matthew wasn't alone another woman was Matthew him having an affair I I didn't ask you're the first and only person that uh I mentioned this to I don't suppose you have a name could you at least tell me what she looked like little younger than your mom blond hair if my mother had found out that certainly would have given them something to fight about yes it would yes it would it love thank [Music] you are you crazy you threatened to kill him I was angry I didn't mean it you didn't mean it when you said it or when you actually did it I don't even remember saying it unfortunately for you your neighbor does and I'm sure she'll be more than happy to share it with the jury yeah it sounds like Helen along with Matthew's Fair they know about that so you did know yeah you seriously didn't think I would find out I'm sorry I I just didn't see the point in ruining his reputation the prosecution will okay fine fine Matthew have been cheating on me for months okay are you happy a while back I happened to find some emails on his computer happened he's been spending a lot of late nights at work and texting on his phone all the time I was suspicious go on the letters were romantic I confronted him about it he swore he'd stop but he didn't did he the night Matthew I had found more letters on the computer that's why you two were fighting but but that time time he did end it I watched him he sent the texts right in front of me and he said she didn't take it well do you know who it was no frankly I didn't want to know I I just wanted it to be over in the story why is it that every time I pursue a lead to clear your name all I do is uncover another motive and when did you start drinking again my husband of 15 years was having an affair on me excuse me if I wanted a drink a drink a few yeah I I lost count [Music] okay let's just go back to that night you confronted him about the affair yeah we were arguing I would see seemed like hours and then I sat on the couch no I laid on the couch I don't remember what happened after that please try my head was spinning I think he said he was going upstairs to go to bed and this whole time you two were alone you think so think it any point was there anyone else in the house maybe maybe I don't know like who Kirk maybe Kirk losing half the profits from that real estate sale would be enough to make anyone jealous don't you think yeah tell you what you think about it where are you going and go back to the house see if the police missed [Music] anything Nicole on a scale from 1 to 10 how screwed do you think I am [Music] 12 ran you hear [Music] for [Music] I'd be glad just be sad thinking of you how much have you had the drink oh here we go again the same thing I don't want to do this right now I never want to do [Music] this that's how you got [Music] in [Music] [Music] oh [Music] [Music] right by is that [Music] you [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Music] [Music] hello hey Nikki it's me Riley yeah I'm over at the house where are you I'm getting ready to head to work what time are you leaving shouldn't be too much longer what the hell Nikki Nikki what happened can I call you back later uh sure okay bye Nicole I'm glad I caught you you got a sec is it about Mom's case did you know Matthew was having an affair wait what apparently it been happening for a while you really didn't know no absolutely not did Mom know yeah another motive apparently they grow on trees around here what happened did he did he tell her she found some emails on his computer I was just over at her house I found one of them myself do I even want to know what it said the usual thinking of you like that you think she did it I was thinking Kirk but now who knows look I know she's not the best person but I truly don't think that she's capable of doing such a thing you mean you don't think she'd be capable of doing such a thing when she's sober in either State Nikki 12 hours ago I would have agreed with you now who knows I guess I was just hoping that maybe you had heard something or maybe you knew who the woman was was no I'm sorry look my shift is about to start can we talk about this more tomorrow morning burning the midnight oil huh welcome to the Glamorous world of medicine I'll be at the motel if you think of anything sounds good bye hey [Music] a we spoke to the manager said the housekeeper reported her key stolen a couple days ago this just proves that someone is trying to stop my investigation anyone giving you any trouble lately Matthew's brother isn't exactly a fan Wyatt I'll tell you what I'll give him a call and find out where he was tonight and maybe Kirk holl for your mother's sake I hope you're as good at being a lawyer as you making enemies I don't suppose this place has a security camera sorry you know i' feel better if you weren't alone is there anyone you can call maybe Riley no she's still at work but I'll be fine reallying in the meantime I'm going to run prints on this maybe we'll get lucky can you compare them to this do I even want to know where you got this from you said you'd take a look if I do do you have a rest I will when my mother gets out of jail if I ever get in trouble I know who I'm going to call thank you [Music] Charlene this is Nicole it's Charlene got some news actually I do we looked into Wyatt and thought it might interest you to hear that Mr raffy was a no-show for work last night what about the prince from the bottle no match not the photo or the window at your mother's house damn it hey you want some unsolicited advice my favorite kind in my experience I've learned that these things usually come down to one of two things passion or [Music] [Music] money [Music] John muring you don't know me but my name is Nicole Nicole Ray oh what say sorry but just step FY if you have a moment I would just love to ask you a few questions about his will actually I'm winning late for a c meeting besides it's a little soon to probate don't you think oh no no no I'm not interested in contesting it I'm representing my mother in the murder trial oh that's out of my AA you have expertise well I was just wondering if something were to happen to my mother what happens to the will let me guess you went to one of those big fancy raw schools H UV and did they teach you about an attorney client privilege there they did as a legal matter yes but as a family member inquiring about family business I believe it falls under the category of nosy stepdaughter I suppose it wouldn't hurt if I'm a few minutes late nosy stepdaughter a very particular filing system so rafy ra Matthew rapy H 6 weeks ago Matthew redrafted his will naming your mother was his primary beneficiary because he didn't trust his partner correct now let's say my mother gets convicted for Matthew's murder it's the Slayer statute that would prevent her from inheriting one penny of Matthew's estate in which case go to the ex beneficiary so theoretically someone could have killed Matthew and framed my mother so that they could collect the inheritance instead that's some four dimension chess right there guess I'm looking for East bur's very own Bobby Fisher I don't suppose this next beneficiary would happen to be Matthew's brother Wyatt would it let me see actually no it's your [Music] sister Riley I'll catch up with you uh sorry I haven't called you back I've just been slammed with patience all day but um is something wrong I'm going to ask you a question and I need the truth okay well now you're scaring me where were you the night Mathew died excuse me I think you heard me I don't understand though please just answer the question I was home can anyone verify that mean not unless you want to sep on my Smart TV's browsing history did you go over to Mom's house that night hold on you think I have something to do with what happened you're the one who insisted Matthew changed the will well yes but to benefit our mother unless she gets convicted of Matthew's murder in that case what do you know it all goes to you $1.5 million you're serious money like that would go a long way way in clearing up those deaths don't you think okay first of all that's insane secondly why on Earth would I insist that you who works at one of the most well-known firms in the country come out here and represent Mom if I really wanted her to lose because you didn't think I'd actually come and you have to admit as far as aliis go it isn't a bad one after all calling a lawyer from quote one of the most well-known firms in the country would go a long way in making it appear you weren't secretly trying to throw the case screw you is that a denial that's a get the hell out of my face Riley [Music] Riley it's Riley leave a message hey it's me look I'm so sorry I accused you like that it's just it's my job to ask the hard questions you know that I guess I'm just exhausted please call [Music] me [Music] [Music] [Music] first the hotel room now this it can't be random did you get a look at the driver it happened too fast license plate no I don't know what you want me to do put out an APB on a black SUV Nick we've known each other for a long time and believe me when I tell tell you that Matthew raferty was loved by a lot of people in this town any of whom would love to see your mother punished look just hang in there okay the sooner the trial's over the sooner things will calm down once she gets convicted you mean you said it not me e e e with their future grandkids instead of sitting behind bars [Music] involuntary manslaughter 5 years Nick this is a textbook case of Prim of passion and you're assuming that the killer isn't still out there I can't serve Justice on a hunch but what they did to my hotel room the hotel the cops get called to at least two to three times a week this town is full of people who just want to see your old woman pay you mean they want to see my old woman home and that's your jewy pool 15 years i' seriously consider it if I were you well well well cor how about a whiskey sweetheart I think you've Tau enough why you just back up buddy no one here wants any trouble no trouble just one a few words with our La your friend here okay well I set back up whatever you say counselor hey gu mother deserves a chair for what she did to my brother I'm thinking maybe I'll just hurt someone in po put her instead back off man do hey hey hey hey hey hey that's enough that's enough I'm about to ride down to the station to cool off I told you everybody okay fine Bobby never better good Wyatt fingerprints were match for the photo plus guess what kind of car he drives black SUV so he's the one who's been trying to intimidate me guess he took his greef too far but don't worry he's not going to be bothering you again we've got plenty of charges to keep him busy here for a while what about the fingerprints from the house none of the prints that we collected the night of Matthew's murdered matches so it wasn't kir cor Wyatt I'm just glad no one got seriously hurt me too 15 years voluntary manslaughter if I plead guilty that's usually how plea deals work but I could go to trial and get nothing or you could get 30 but you're a good lawyer that doesn't matter if I can't fight the facts right in front of us you want facts how about the fact that my husband's killer is still out there you mean the killer we're not getting any closer to finding least with this deal you'll get a few decent years a few decent years is that the best Nicole Ray can do I didn't get liquored up and fight with my husband I didn't tell the cops I can't remember what happened I'm not the beneficiary of a million dooll will and I sure as hell didn't come back here to this crappy small town after all these years just to [Music] lose [Music] do you have any idea what's been happening to me out there ever since I got here I have been harassed my motel room has been broken into Matthew's brother tried to run me off the road and now my own sister is mad at me well if it's so bad why are you doing this because I thought maybe for once there was something I could do to actually make you happy or something you could do so you feel better about yourself you needed me no you want me to need you there's a difference as I recall I was all set to go with Chuck was your idea to take this case over and now that it's not going the way you want you're just ready to cash in your chips and go home well no I'm going to fight and if you are not going to fight with me if you are not going to be in my corner then I'm going to find someone who will you're saying I should just quit no I'm saying you're fired you're serious officer we're through here all right then let's [Applause] [Music] go [Music] fine [Music] go on I'll catch up Nicole what a surprise that a sec of course come on in no no no I'm not staying I just I just wanted to come by say goodbye goodbye I presented the deal to my client advised her to take it and she fired me wait your mother fired you she'd rather take her chance in court without you she doesn't feel I'm quote in her corner so she's going to go with a public defender yeah maybe Chuck can do a better job Chuck hasn't seen the inside of a courtroom in over a year it's just like riding a bicycle there's nothing like riding a bicycle what do you want me to say yes she's being stubborn but I can't just wave a magic lawyer wand and change the woman's mind you have to you can't just give up give up you act like you're the only lawyer that's had a stubborn client you don't know my mother like I do but I do know this case Nikki you've seen the evidence you've read the witness statements she doesn't need Chuck she needs a miracle she needs you so now you care about my mother actually I don't I think she's a murderer and frankly deserves to R in prison for what she did then why aren't you celebrating because I care about you Nikki and the old Nikki the Nikki that I went to school with would have never walked away from a challenge ever well the old Nikki didn't have a murderer for a mother allegedly well there is one thing I'm disappointed about you're disappointed I won't be able to go up against you in court although we both know I would have won yeah possibly probably you always did enjoy a good fight well hey if you ever feel like relocating out west my offer still stands seriously I appreciate that of course that's assuming that your legal skills are better than your barf fighting skills hey if Charlene hadn't interrupted us I would have had him mhm well I uh I better get back to the hotel I need pack before they charge me another day see you around counselor see you around Nikki do you ever think about why things never worked out between us probably because I always enjoyed a good fight ouch good luck come in so it's true you're leaving she fired me look right about yesterday I what's this the footage from my doorbell camera so that you can see that my car was parked in front of my house all night long and that I never left look I'm sorry okay I just I ran out of places to look and I got done desperate actually I think it was a pretty smart Theory so I mean too bad I didn't think of it sooner so too bad so what happens now she's someone else's problem you mean the public defender maybe he'll be able to convince her to sign the deal do you think she did it I don't know maybe no one Del maybe there never was another person in the first place maybe the autopsy was wrong and Matthew just fell I wish I could change your mind about leaving you could always come to California Free Run what and give up my cushy position sponge bathing patients at eastboro General I'm sure there are plenty of patients to sponge bathe in LA if things go the way that I think that they will mom's going to need all the support she can get so yeah don't be a stranger I w't I've got a 6:00 out so tell Jerry I'll be back at the farm in the morning yeah I'm heading to the airport now you really want to know put it this way I've got enough material to keep my therapist busy for the next year and a half okay talk to you tomorrow bye video doorbell the MS wouldn't be happy about me talking to you again lucky for you she's at bingo good because I need a favor well what do you know Harold you're a lifesaver why I crack this case it had to be you just to be S thinking of you you know what Harold think you

worry I brought one uh what happened with you and your mom anyway I thought things were better between you two tried to get her to take a deal ah guess that means she didn't want it well it's complicated so still don't have any other sus like I said it's complicated right can want to do the honors it's your house well technically it's my mother's [Music] house what should we drink too something uplifting for once anyone special in your life actually I just went through a breakup oh was it bad well let's just say it was complicated to complicated relationships cheers you looking for this [Music] it had to be you was that like your special song or something I don't know what you're talking about the locket the messages he wrote you quoting the lyrics from the song and then the neighbor's description a little younger than your mom blonde hair he saw us just took me a while to connect connect the dots how long were you two sleeping together couple of months give or take Matthew had been coming in and out of the tavern a lot started innocent he'd flirt a little I'd flirt a little back smile led to a touch on the shoulder like to an invitation huh you get the idea congratulations you wanted to find the Killer and you [Music] did [Music] Co come on Nicole I don't want to hurt you I swear of course I didn't want to hurt Matthew either [Music] but he left me no [Music] [Music] choice drop your weapon I said drop the weapon I got your text [Music] yeah Mickey are you okay yes where is she with Charlene we've got your phone Sadie we know all about your relationship with Matthew raffy how he finally ended things after his wife found the latest messages and judging from your text that you sent I'm guessing that didn't make you too pleased with either one of them you already confessed to ni Ray an hour ago might as well come clean for the record now but first I was just going to talk smooth thing is over then after seeing them together seeing the way she treated him and that he chooses her over [Music] me yes I was angry and yes I killed him he deserved it [Music] oh Mom thank you for never doubting me even when I was doubting you I was just doing my job no you were being my [Music] daughter now there are going to be some changes around here Charlene is getting me into a treatment program and I'm even going to pick up some shifts at the old [Music] Diner now I am fully aware that this is going to be a journey but I will get there I promise one step at a time I owe it to the both of you and the Matthew you don't have to do it alone mom you'll always have a us does that mean that you're going to be sticking around for a little while well the firm's waited this long I don't see why they can't wait a few more days in the meantime I was hoping that I could stay at the house yes yes of course you are always welcome good because I plan on stopping by a lot more often or you could move back [Music] e for
