00:00Do you know what it's like to watch someone you love endure constant senseless pain?
00:13Of course you don't.
00:15You're incapable of empathy.
00:21I tried to do it the right way, but you made it impossible.
00:30And now, I understand suffering.
00:34All I feel is rage in my chest.
00:43I live with a hole in my heart.
00:49And soon you will too.
00:52This is for you, sis.
00:55This is for all of us.
00:56Her chemotherapy is supposed to start today.
01:01Please, please, just check one more time.
01:03You should calm down. I will check one more time for you, okay?
01:05Okay.
01:06Your insurance did not her claim.
01:08Treatment is canceled.
01:12Canceled?
01:13What?
01:17So you're telling me there's nothing we can do?
01:19You want to continue treatment?
01:21Then pay out of pocket.
01:22You will die.
01:32I've done all that I can.
01:34You still got a problem?
01:36You can appeal or take it up with the CEO of your insurance company.
01:40I have to appeal or Amelia's going to die.
01:58Dave, I don't feel...
02:00What?
02:01What?
02:01I still believe that someone up there might listen.
02:24They denied the appeal?
02:25No, no, I don't want to die.
02:33I don't want to die.
02:34I have a tail.
02:34You're okay, you're okay.
02:35You'll be okay.
02:36No.
02:36Someone help.
02:37Someone help.
02:39Doctor, hello?
02:42Please.
02:43She's all I have left.
02:44Please, someone save her.
02:44Please.
02:52Your sister's leukemia has spread.
02:53You know, I gave her an emergency stem cell transplant.
02:56But without continuing the treatment, she has no chance.
03:20I'm done going down with these money-hungered assholes.
03:23I'm going to cover my sister's treatment or I'll...
03:29Insurance troubles?
03:34TB Health is killing my little sister.
03:37She's only nine.
03:39Evil snakes.
03:40My husband's gone because they denied every last claim.
03:44It would have been his sixth and third birthday today.
03:48They were his favorite.
03:50Now I can't have one in his honor because TB Health wouldn't cover my tremor medications anymore.
03:56Thank you, young man.
04:04Sorry about your sister.
04:07I'm sorry about your husband.
04:11Those greedy bastards don't care if any of us live or die as long as their pockets are lined.
04:16Don't let them get you down.
04:18We've got to fight back.
04:19If I could just meet him face to face.
04:33If I could just tell him.
04:35Check your hands there.
04:37I'll show you right now.
04:38All right, I know the drill.
04:40Bound your horses, boys.
04:41I'll take $100,000 and the crib keeper's wife over there.
04:45She won't last a week.
04:47I'm going to get $200,000 on the cancer, kid.
04:50Those little coffins are so cute.
04:53Don't you talk about my sister?
04:57Don't you talk about my sister?
04:59You asshole.
05:00You go apologize to her right now.
05:02Make me.
05:03What do you want, dipshit?
05:04Mr. Thornwald, you're coming to deny my sister's leukemia treatment.
05:07I want you to do the right thing.
05:09Save her life.
05:09You come near me again, you're going to be very sorry.
05:12It's you who will be sorry.
05:33If you won't hear me out, I'll make you.
05:39Hey, who are you?
05:52Stop!
05:53Get back here!
05:54Security, catch him!
05:56The fuck is this?
06:12You underestimated me.
06:14You underestimated me.
06:16I'm sorry, who are you?
06:18The guy who sits there you're slowly killing!
06:21He's only nine years old!
06:23She has her whole life ahead of her!
06:26You want a bottle of crybaby?
06:29You think I'd give a fuck about some snotty kid's wasted potential?
06:33He was denied.
06:34So what?
06:35That's business.
06:36It's not my fault you're too broke to save your sister's life.
06:39You heartless son of a bitch!
06:43When the world finds out what you've done to children, how many people your business has killed!
06:49Bill, what?
06:51Nobody's going to listen to you.
06:53Bill, you're not even a pimple on my ass.
07:08Randall!
07:09Randall!
07:15You shouldn't have done that!
07:17Gallons of blood on your hands, but soon yours will be on mine.
07:28Don't give up, Amelia.
07:30Keep fighting.
07:32I'll find another way.
07:46No.
07:47Keep this.
07:49So, Mom and Daddy, you love them.
07:55No.
07:56No, Amelia!
07:58No!
07:58Amelia!
08:01Doctors!
08:02Doctors!
08:04Amelia!
08:06I hate how quiet it is without you.
08:14You were just a kid.
08:15You had a whole life unlived.
08:19A future.
08:21But they took it from you.
08:24They denied you.
08:25Almost enough to pay for the treatment that would have saved your life.
08:45A sick joke.
08:47How naive to trust the system, to believe that a rich health insurance CEO would actually care about people.
08:57It's unjust.
08:59It's unjust.
09:01I'm done being a pawn.
09:03You think you're untouchable.
09:14You hide behind your billions while the rest of us fight for scraps.
09:24But all that's going to change.
09:27Because you're not a god.
09:30When my bullet hits you, you'll bleed.
09:34No.
09:37You do.
09:43You are a good one.
09:44Kind of a good one.
09:46I'll go wrong.
09:46I won't posible.
09:47You're a good one.
09:48I won't believe you.
09:49I can't believe it does not believe it.
09:49It will be a bad one.
09:50You're done being années.
09:50I won't believe it.
09:51I won't believe it.
09:52There's nothing.
09:52You're done being harmed in you.
09:53She'll never get to see this amazing place.
10:07You took everything away from her and she's not the only one.
10:25You'll pay for it all.
10:29Do you have a reservation?
10:33Mario Lanchotti.
10:36Why so serious, Batman?
10:41If only she knew.
10:44So, Mario, are you here for business or pleasure?
11:03Off to work, off to school, just an ordinary day.
11:14We should be celebrating.
11:21But you're gone.
11:23And now everything is about to change.
11:26Remember me, Mr. Thornwald?
11:39Get out of my way, scum.
11:44Remember me, Mr. Thornwald?
11:54Get out of my way, scum.
12:01You'll never deny anyone else ever again.
12:14I thought I'd regret it.
12:38But this feels like justice.
12:52Now time for phase two.
12:57Chief, it's over here.
13:07Let's go.
13:09Who would murder the CEO of DB Health?
13:15What happened here, Chief?
13:20Randall Thornwald was murdered in cold blood.
13:23Hey, Chief.
13:24Check this out.
13:26And there's two more.
13:28Defend and oppose?
13:30You don't think it's some whack child vigilance.
13:36Mere moments ago, a man now identified as 54-year-old Randall Thornwald, CEO of DB Health,
13:43has been shot dead using bullets labeled deny, defend, and depose.
13:48Police are speculating that the assailant might be a vigilante.
13:54Whoever did this, enjoy your freedom, because we will hunt you down.
13:59And when I catch you, you'll never see the light of day again.
14:04I need to walk free long enough to make sure my message is heard loud and clear.
14:08The shooter who won the life, Fina Randall Thornwald, for all day lighted.
14:11I did this so others won't die like my sister did.
14:21But what would she think of me now?
14:32I have to go back.
14:34Yes, Mr. Mayor, I know Randall Thornwald was a close personal friend.
14:43He was a goddamn visionary.
14:45And we're doing everything we can to catch him.
14:47Find the psychopath that murdered him, or you'll never work again.
14:50Sir, we'll squash this cocky fucker faster than you can...
14:53I'll call you back, Mr. Mayor.
14:58CCTV caught the perp biking into Central Park.
15:02Hit it.
15:08I shouldn't have come back, but I can't let this go.
15:11Over there.
15:19They're faster than I thought.
15:22Search the area.
15:23I have an email.
15:32Where could it...
15:41Could this be a clue?
15:51Lieutenant.
15:54I knew there would be sacrifices.
15:58I have to get out of here.
16:02This will keep him busy.
16:04Let's see how long it takes for them to fix that.
16:08Y'all already know my struggle.
16:09So when I heard deny defend a...
16:11On the bullets?
16:13Like, endeniving is wrong, but I am on the edge.
16:16DB health is corrupt.
16:18And karma's a bitch, hunty.
16:20So I'm rooting for Mateo.
16:26Excuse me, officer.
16:28I just found this.
16:34Yeah, I was over there.
16:36You contaminated evidence, you idiot!
16:38Not bad.
16:39Hey, chief.
16:41We found the backpack.
16:50Get the fuck out of here.
16:55Gimme that.
16:56There's a note.
17:08There's a note.
17:12How much paper for a life?
17:14And you keep raising the price.
17:15Who gave them the right to choose?
17:16Time to adjust and pay their dues.
17:18Take this to forensics.
17:19Got it.
17:21The plot is thickening.
17:22And I think our vigilante has just earned his nickname.
17:24The Adjuster.
17:25Let me know what you think in the comments below.
17:26I won't be made a fool of.
17:27I won't be made a fool of.
17:29They'll be made a fool of.
17:31The actual night.
17:33The plot is thickening.
17:34It's just the plot.
17:35The plot is thickening.
17:36And I think our vigilante has just earned his nickname.
17:37The Adjuster.
17:38I won't be made a fool of.
18:08Have you seen this man?
18:12Tell us what you know, dickwad.
18:17Look, I don't see nothing.
18:20My insurance wouldn't cover new glasses, so we throwed out these glasses.
18:23Everything's a big blur.
18:25Then get out of my face.
18:28This adjuster will pay with his life.
18:38People are rooting for this guy.
18:41It just shows how sick our society is.
18:43Okay, but the adjuster can get it done.
18:47He's too hot to commit.
18:49Some loser who wanted to be famous.
18:51All of this is pointless if they don't understand why I did it.
18:55But they will soon.
18:58Claims to seem humane!
19:00Denying claims to seem humane!
19:02Denying claims to seem humane!
19:04Who gave them the right to choose?
19:06A justice now or pay or due?
19:09Who gave them the right to choose?
19:11A justice now or pay or due?
19:13Who gave them the right to choose?
19:15This is what I wanted.
19:17The people rising up.
19:19Shouting back at the system that tried to silence them.
19:21Who gave them the right to choose?
19:23A justice now or pay or due?
19:25Denying claims to seem humane!
19:26Denying claims to seem humane!
19:28Denying claims to seem humane!
19:29You should be ashamed of yourself.
19:32Harassing people at your age?
19:34I'm proud to fight for what's right.
19:36For what we all deserve.
19:37You're defending a murderer!
19:42Who are what?
19:43Look at you, shaking like a leaf.
19:45You're nothing but a weak old...
19:46Don't lay a hand on her.
19:48How dare you touch me?
19:50Who's touching my wife?
19:53You'd better apologize, punk.
19:55Your wife's the one who should apologize.
19:57She stole something that doesn't belong to her.
19:59You loudmouth maggots are stealing our precious time.
20:04Leave!
20:05Before I make you go ahead and try.
20:07You shouldn't have done that one.
20:15Yeah?
20:16How about this?
20:17Do you realize you just assaulted the CEO of Purple Cross?
20:25I was defending myself.
20:27What you did?
20:28What you did to my friend Patty here?
20:31That assault.
20:32Who's going to believe some decrepit old woman and her rat-faced sidekick over a CEO and his wife?
20:38Everyone here?
20:39They all saw what happened.
20:40You mean these lazy invalids who'd rather shout themselves hoarse, demanding money from us, than work an honest job?
20:49I worked night shift for 35 years in a warehouse, until the insurance company denied my back surgery.
20:56I was trained to become a pilot, until Purple Cross denied my insulin prescription.
21:01Now I'm blind in one eye, and have to give up on everything I worked for.
21:05All they want is a chance to live.
21:08You're done taking that away?
21:10I'm done.
21:12Newsflash.
21:13The one who has the gold makes the rules, asshole.
21:15Aw, did no one tell you?
21:19This protest is pointless.
21:21You'll all stay poor and sick, begging for money you're never going to get.
21:26Like diseased hamsters stuck in a broken wheel.
21:29It's how the world works.
21:31You can't do it without money.
21:32It's always about money.
21:34You're right?
21:36The money talks.
21:37People listen.
21:44Here's Emilie's insurance money.
21:46They need it more than I do.
21:48Here's your medication.
21:51There's enough here for everyone.
21:52Okay?
21:53Okay.
21:53There's over 200k in here.
21:57Either you stole this, or you're a drug dealer.
22:01Let's go out for a real nice dinner tonight, honey.
22:04Ooh.
22:05Stealing from the sick once again.
22:07That's what you greedy CEOs do best, isn't it?
22:09Stealing.
22:09I'll bet half these leeching phlegm buckets owe me money.
22:17Pricks like you don't scare me anymore.
22:19Yeah?
22:20How about the cops?
22:22They'll get me eventually.
22:24But not today.
22:25What makes you think you're so invincible?
22:28You're a scrawny little nobody.
22:30I'm the CEO of a billion-dollar healthcare company.
22:33You have no idea who I am.
22:36And you don't want to find out
22:38who gave you the right to choose.
22:42Adjust things now or pay your due?
22:45Who gave you the right to choose?
22:46Adjust things now or pay your due?
22:49Who gave you the right to choose?
22:50Adjust things now or pay your due?
22:53Who gave you the right to choose?
22:55Adjust things now or pay your due?
22:56I'M SHUTTING THIS DOWN!
22:59WE'RE NOT GOING ANYWHERE!
23:02WE'RE NOT GOING ANYWHERE!
23:04WHO GIVES YOU THE RIGHT TO CHOOSE?
23:07ADJUSTING YOUR PAY YOU DO!
23:09WHO GIVES YOU THE RIGHT TO CHOOSE?
23:11Cops aren't going to be enough.
23:13We need the mayor.
23:15Mayor Camden, there are violent protestors in front of DB Health intimidating pedestrians.
23:21Protesters, huh?
23:23Those chanting morons are a virus infecting the minds of our youth.
23:27I'll send more officers over.
23:30Mr. Mayor, their leader is the adjuster.
23:34I'll be there in five.
23:36It's for you.
23:38It's for you.
23:42Yeah, one more for you.
23:44Please.
23:46It's a miracle.
23:50But how?
23:51It's my sister's life insurance money.
23:54She'd want me to help people out while they still have a fighting chance.
23:59Consider an adjustment.
24:01There he is!
24:02The adjuster!
24:06That's the mayor.
24:07Now you'll be sorry.
24:08Mayor Camden, he's here.
24:12This pathetic guy is the adjuster?
24:14The calculated terrorist who murdered my dear friend Randy?
24:18I can't let them take me in yet.
24:20My work isn't done.
24:26No.
24:27I am the adjuster.
24:29No.
24:30I'm the adjuster.
24:31It's me.
24:32I'm the adjuster.
24:33No, it's me.
24:34I'm the adjuster.
24:35No, it's me.
24:36I'm the adjuster.
24:39Go!
24:40Now!
24:41Get him!
24:42Let's go!
24:43He's getting away!
24:46Get him!
24:47Get him!
24:48He's getting away!
24:49He's over there!
24:51Don't let him go!
24:52Don't let him go!
24:53DIE!
24:54DIE!
24:55DIE!
24:56DIE!
24:57DIE!
24:58DIE!
24:59DIE!
25:00DIE!
25:01DIE!
25:02DIE!
25:03DIE!
25:04DIE!
25:05DIE!
25:06GET HIM!
25:07Not so clever, after all!
25:09Aw.
25:22Hey, man.
25:28Hey, you cool?
25:30Can you use the jacket?
25:34Take it right there.
25:36Here.
25:37God bless you.
25:39Take care of it, man.
25:45Stay safe.
25:4826-year-old Matteo Leone has been identified
25:51as the CEO shooter.
25:52A $10,000 reward is being offered for any info
25:56that comes into our office.
25:58My name is out there now, but I won't hide for much longer.
26:09I wish someone didn't have to die to make them listen.
26:15I wish I could hear my sister's laugh just one more time.
26:23I wish someone didn't have to die to make them listen.
26:29I wish I could hear my sister's laugh just one more time.
26:33But life isn't fair.
26:39Do you need some help?
26:39Do you mind?
26:41I don't mind.
26:42I have to put her on these walks so she can sleep,
26:45and then when she's asleep, I can never lift this up.
26:48Have a good night.
26:50Have a good night.
26:51Have a good night.
26:52Bye.
26:53The healthcare system has failed the people
26:56And it needs to be taken down.
27:10This won't bring Amelia back,
27:15But it will save millions.
27:17I'm not a monster.
27:30Accountability is part of the plan.
27:39Have a good one.
27:42And I'm almost ready to take it.
27:47I can't run.
28:17I can't run forever.
28:20One last thing to check off the list.
28:23Let me get a McCrazy with Oreo space.
28:30It's fire.
28:32Can I have a bite?
28:34What?
28:35You want a bite?
28:36Yeah.
28:37Um, if you pay for your own, I guess, sure.
28:40Maybe, okay, sure.
28:41Can I get two then?
28:46And, uh, you can keep the change.
28:48No fucking way.
28:55Hey.
28:56I got the guy you're looking for.
28:59My time as a free man is ending.
29:01But are any of us really free?
29:03Come on, come on, come on.
29:13Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on.
29:14Well, well, well.
29:17Matteo Leone.
29:19Please, don't do anything stupid.
29:22Is there a problem, officers?
29:24You little shit.
29:30Chief, it's all here.
29:35You're under arrest, motherfucker.
29:43You have the right to remain silent.
29:45Go ahead and arrest me.
29:47The people are about to wake up.
29:48No way.
29:54If you're reading this, I am in police custody.
29:57I won't stop fighting, but I can't do it alone.
30:01Will you join me?
30:07Matteo Leone is a cold-blooded killer
30:09who brutally murdered CEO Randall Thornwald.
30:12For his crimes, we are seeking the death penalty.
30:16How do you plead?
30:17They have it all wrong.
30:21Not guilty.
30:27Answer me, you shit-eating cockroach!
30:32Or should I pull the teeth out
30:34from your pretty little smile?
30:37Don't you realize you're gonna get the death penalty?
30:40You don't realize nobody's free
30:41until everybody's free.
30:47Let them go, Chief!
30:49Let them go!
30:53Can't let this sad sack have all the fun.
30:55You think you're a hero?
31:03You're a terrorist.
31:05And I won't rest
31:06until you're on death row.
31:09And you're afraid of me
31:10because you can't stop what I started.
31:13You're losing control, Mayor Cameron.
31:15Is that what you think?
31:16Well, let's see what the streets have to say, huh?
31:19Come on.
31:26After you, gentlemen.
31:27Hang in there, Mateo.
31:41We're all on your side.
31:42You're fighting for me.
31:43You're going down.
31:52Great use of resources, guys.
31:53So talking.
31:55The system is designed
31:56to annihilate scum like you.
32:00Burn in hell, you filthy criminal.
32:03You'll fry in that chair.
32:05You scared of me, Mr. CEO?
32:06Scared.
32:07Where's your money now?
32:09You're empty threats.
32:10You think you're some sort of superhero?
32:11You're shit on the bottom of a shoe.
32:14A fly about to be swatted.
32:15Easy for you to say.
32:17Surrounded by cops
32:18and your bulletproof vests.
32:19Cowards.
32:21All of you.
32:22I could rip you apart.
32:29You're nothing but a filthy criminal.
32:33Powerless.
32:34Stupid.
32:36Pathetic.

33:29Maybe I deserve everything that's coming to me.
33:34What you in here for, princess?
33:36What's your name, boy?
33:39Better start answering me, son, before I fuck you up, boy.
33:43I'm gonna fuck you up so bad they ain't gonna be able to recognize you when I'm fucking through.
33:47Now what's your fucking name, boy?
33:50Mateo, Leone.
33:56Oh, shit.
33:58You're the adjuster.
34:05Dixon, you see the brothers in here, they're all gonna test you and they're gonna fuck with you.
34:10But they gotta get to us first.
34:13And my man Terrence over here is gonna get you cleaned up.
34:15Yo, T, clean this man up.
34:18Take a seat, bro.
34:20The denial letter came a week after we buried her.
34:32I'm so sorry that happened.
34:34And what you did made a lot of guys in here feel a lot better.
34:39Just feel less hopeless.
34:41There's no going back.
34:47I'll fight to the death.
34:52Janet here, but the man of the hour hasn't shown yet.
34:55If you didn't know, today is the first day of the trial of the century.
34:59The United States vs. Matteo Leone, also known as the adjuster.
35:05You saw the wanted posters.
35:07Corrupt CEO's time is running out.
35:10You crusty plebeians could never get past security.
35:13Oh, yeah?
35:14You sure about that?
35:15It's called survival of the fix.
35:17The vibes are giving pressure cooker.
35:25Get her, get her.
35:28Come on.
35:28The people are waking up.
35:53Enjoy it while it lasts.
35:57Our case is airtight.
35:58After this, nothing but prison and death for a sadistic monster like you.
36:03You say about that?
36:06Talk to my client again, and I'll have you disbarred.
36:09I'll see you in court.
36:10All right.
36:10Ladies and gentlemen of the jury,
36:37Matteo Leone viciously targeted Randall Thornwald.
36:42Rather than grieve with dignity when his sister died of cancer,
36:46he cruelly premeditated the murder of a loving family man,
36:50a successful visionary CEO worth billions,
36:54who purposely profited off of people's pain.
36:59These witnesses will paint a picture of just how dangerous Matteo Leone is.
37:05He could have saved his sister,
37:13but he was too broke to pay.
37:15He had motive.
37:16He was aggressive from the start.
37:18He's a bully.
37:20He pushed me and threatened my husband.
37:23He wanted them to suffer.
37:25That's not true.
37:26He thought he was so smart with all his messages.
37:29Mr. Leone is entitled, manipulative, and frankly, psychotic.
37:38Thank you, Mayor Camden.
37:41For my final witness, I call Brady Thornwald,
37:45Randall Thornwald's son.
37:46Brady, how has the death of your father, your hero, affected you?
38:07Will this kid be the nail in my coffin?
38:09My father's not my hero.
38:19You mean?
38:22I mean, I was incredibly devastated
38:25when that cold-blooded killer
38:29took my father's life away from me.
38:35You know what?
38:38Fuck that.
38:38My dad enjoyed hurting people.
38:40His entire vision as CEO
38:43was built on keeping people sick.
38:45And I'm not just going to sit here and lie
38:47because some company paid me to.
38:48You disrespect your own father.
38:51After everything he did for you?
38:53You know what? Lock me up.
38:54I don't care.
38:55Objection.
38:56He can't just...
38:57I mean, sit down.
38:58You're nothing lower than suing sluts.
38:59Mr. Mayor, first,
39:01you treat him like some kind of sue event.
39:04Order!
39:09Mayor Camden, one more word
39:11and you'll be held in contempt.
39:14Yeah, yeah.
39:15No further questions.
39:18Based on the evidence provided,
39:22Matteo Leone undoubtedly is guilty of murder
39:25in the first degree.
39:27Prosecution rests.
39:30Ms. Weinhardt?
39:31Judge will shine.
39:36People to jury.
39:37As the prosecution detailed,
39:40my client, Matteo Leone,
39:43shot and killed the CEO of DB Health.
39:47Randall Thornwall, dead.
39:49Someone had to do it.
39:57That's right.
39:58My client does not deny killing Mr. Thornwall.
40:01What he does deny,
40:03it was unwarranted.
40:05Mr. Leone had to act drastically
40:07to save lives.
40:09And today, we're here to defend his right
40:12so he can defend himself and others
40:15from becoming victims of a murderous corporation.
40:26Order!
40:28I call Patty Sinclair to the stand.
40:30Please tell us what happened to your husband.
40:48Clay and I, we just found out
40:50that we were going to be grandparents.
40:54Then one night,
40:55Clay had a heart attack.
41:00A doctor prescribed a treatment plan,
41:02but DB Health said,
41:03no, not medically necessary.
41:05It would cost hundreds of thousands out of pocket.
41:08So we appealed,
41:09but all of our claims were denied.
41:12I was denied a walking boot
41:14from my fractured ankle.
41:16It got so bad they had to amputate,
41:17but they couldn't because
41:18they don't make prosthetics.
41:20I got addicted to pain medication,
41:22but denied the surgery
41:24to cure my pain for good.
41:25We went bankrupt,
41:26and now we're homeless.
41:28He couldn't afford it,
41:29so he died.
41:31Appealed.
41:32But now she's paralyzed.
41:42If DB Health had approved
41:44my husband's surgery,
41:45he would still be alive.
41:47This young man,
41:49Mateo,
41:49saw how so many of us
41:51were being taken advantage of
41:53by DB Health's predatory business.
41:57And he did what no one else
41:59had the courage
42:00or actually the balls to do.
42:03He stood up.
42:10I couldn't have said it any better.
42:13Your Honor,
42:15I call Mr. Mateo Leoti
42:17to stand.
42:30This isn't a circus!
42:32Order in the court!
42:37Do you swear to tell the truth
42:39and nothing but the truth?
42:44If you swear to listen?
42:50I swear to tell the truth.
42:52Mr. Leoti,
42:56what drove you
42:58to kill the CEO
42:59of DB Health?
43:07Your Honor,
43:08it'll be better
43:09if I show you.
43:10Oh, objection!
43:11This is new evidence
43:12not found to be...
43:12Sit down, counselor.
43:15Go ahead.
43:16Thanks for being here.
43:25While I still have a voice,
43:27I want to tell you why.
43:31This is Amelia,
43:33my nine-year-old sister.
43:36She was just a baby
43:38when our parents died.
43:39And it's been the two of us
43:41against the world ever since.
43:42The doctor said
43:44she could beat leukemia
43:45if she started treatment
43:46right away.
43:48But DB Health
43:49wouldn't cover it.
43:51Even with a decent job,
43:52I couldn't afford
43:53to pay out of pocket.
43:55So I appealed.
43:56I was optimistic.
43:58I didn't know
43:59that there are almost
44:00200,000 health insurance
44:02related deaths
44:02per year.
44:04As we waited
44:04for a response,
44:06I watched my amazing
44:07little sister
44:08get sicker.
44:09And then DB Health
44:12denied her appeal.
44:15I did everything
44:16I could to fight back.
44:18I even pleaded
44:19with the CEO himself
44:21to save her life.
44:24He told me
44:25it was nothing personal.
44:27It's just the business
44:28of keeping people sick.
44:33And then he smiled.
44:37Amelia died.
44:39And I found out
44:41our story is
44:42very,
44:43very common.
44:46I'm talking
44:47mass corruption
44:49leading to massive
44:50amounts of lives ruined.
44:52Hundreds of thousands
44:53of lives ruined.
44:55All to fill their pockets.
44:58But we're bigger than them.
45:00All right?
45:01We're bigger than them.
45:02If we stand up together,
45:05who's with me?
45:06We're bigger than them.
45:08We're bigger than them.
45:09We're bigger than them.
45:12We're bigger than them.
45:13We're bigger than them.
45:16The defense rests.
45:19Nothing more to do,
45:25but wait.
45:26After thorough consideration,
45:28Purple Cross health
45:29will discontinue
45:30our limited anesthesia policy.
45:33Our company will end its wait-and-see policy beginning at the first of the month.
45:37We'll be halting our lottery policy effectively.
45:39Whatever happens today, you did this.
45:49We the jury find Matteo Leone.
45:52Dear Tracy, your letter made me tear up.
45:56I am so sorry you and your daughter had to go through such senseless pain.
46:00No one should have to experience that kind of systemic failure.
46:02You are an inspiration and your daughter is lucky to have a mother who didn't back down.
46:07All my best, Matteo Leone.
46:20Death or life in prison.
46:23At least I said my piece.
46:32This is a pleasure.
46:41I am so sorry to hear from my front and mi bowling.
46:47You
