Short filmTranscript
00:00Do you know what it's like to watch someone you love endure constant senseless pain?
00:10Of course you don't. You're incapable of empathy.
00:18I tried to do it the right way, but you made it impossible.
00:26And now I understand suffering.
00:30All I feel is rage in my chest.
00:40I live with a hole in my heart.
00:46And soon you will too.
00:49This is for you, sis.
00:52This is for all of us.
00:53Her chemotherapy is supposed to start today.
00:58Please, please, just check one more time.
01:00You should calm down. I will check one more time for you, okay?
01:03Okay.
01:04Your insurance did not her claim.
01:05Treatment is canceled.
01:10Canceled?
01:10What?
01:11So you're telling me there's nothing we can do?
01:16You want to continue treatment?
01:18Then pay out of pocket.
01:19You will die.
01:30I've done all that I can.
01:32You still got a problem?
01:33You can appeal or take it up with the CEO of your insurance company.
01:37I have to appeal or Amelia is going to die.
01:55Say, I don't feel...
01:58I still believe that someone up there might listen.
02:22They denied the appeal?
02:23No, no, I don't want to die.
02:30I don't want to die.
02:31It's okay, Amelia.
02:32You're okay, you're okay.
02:33You're going to be okay.
02:34No.
02:34Someone help.
02:35Someone help.
02:37Doctor, hello?
02:39Please.
02:40She's all I have left.
02:41Please, someone save her.
02:42Please.
02:49Your sister's look at me as Brad.
02:51I mean, I gave her an emergency stem cell transplant.
02:54But without continuing the treatment, she has no chance.
02:57I'm done going down with these money-hunger assholes.
03:20I'm going to cover my sister's treatment or I'll...
03:27Insurance trouble?
03:32TB Health is killing my little sister.
03:35She's only nine.
03:36Evil snakes.
03:38My husband's gone because they denied every last claim.
03:42It would have been his sixth and third birthday today.
03:44They were his favorite.
03:48Now I can't have one in his honor because TB Health wouldn't cover my tremor medications anymore.
03:54Thank you, young man.
04:01Sorry about your sister.
04:04I'm sorry about your husband.
04:09Those greedy bastards don't care if any of us live or die as long as their pockets are lined.
04:14Don't let them get you down.
04:16We've got to fight back.
04:17If I could just meet him face to face.
04:30If I could just tell him.
04:33Check your hands there.
04:34We'll show you right now.
04:35All right, I know the drill.
04:37Down your horses, boys.
04:39I'll take 100K and the crib keeper's wife over there.
04:43She won't last a week.
04:44I'm not going to get 200,000 on the cancer, kid.
04:48Those little coffins are so cute.
04:51Don't you talk about my sister?
04:55Don't you talk about my sister?
04:57You asshole.
04:58You go apologize to her right now.
04:59Make me.
05:01What do you want, dipshit?
05:02Mr. Thornwald, you're coming to deny my sister's leukemia treatment.
05:05I want you to do the right thing.
05:07Save her life.
05:08You come near me again, you're going to be very sorry.
05:10It's you who will be sorry.
05:14If you won't hear me out, I'll make you.
05:35Hey, who are you?
05:50Stop!
05:51Get back here!
05:52Security, catch him!
05:54The fuck is this?
06:09You underestimating me.
06:12You underestimating me.
06:14I'm sorry, who are you?
06:16The guy who sits there you're slowly killing.
06:19He's only nine years old.
06:21She has her whole life ahead of her.
06:24You want a bottle of crybaby?
06:27You think I give a fuck about some snotty kid's wasted potential?
06:31He was denied.
06:32So what?
06:32That's business.
06:34It's not my fault you're too broke to save your sister's life.
06:37You heartless son of a...
06:40Jay, when the world finds out what you've done to children, how many people your business has killed.
06:47Bill, what?
06:49Nobody's going to listen to you.
06:53You're not even a pimple on my ass.
06:56You shouldn't have done that.
07:22Gallons of blood on your hands, but soon yours will be on mine.
07:26Don't give up, Amelia.
07:28Keep fighting.
07:30I'll find another way.
07:43No.
07:45Keep this.
07:47So Mom and Daddy, you love them?
07:53No.
07:54No, Amelia!
07:55No!
07:56Amelia!
07:59Doctors!
08:00Doctors!
08:02Amelia!
08:05I hate how quiet it is without you.
08:12You were just a kid.
08:14You had a whole life unlived.
08:17A future.
08:19But they took it from you.
08:21They denied you.
08:23Almost enough to pay for the treatment that would have saved your life.
08:43A sick joke.
08:45How naive to trust the system to believe that a rich health insurance CEO would actually care about people.
08:55It's unjust.
08:56It's unjust.
08:57It's unjust.
08:59I'm done being a pawn.
09:01You think you're untouchable.
09:12You hide behind your billions while the rest of us fight for scraps.
09:22But all that's going to change.
09:25Because you're not a god.
09:27When my bull hits you, you'll bleed.
09:32You'll bleed.
09:32You know me.
09:33Well, why Hong Kong is一切.
09:35You die?
09:36No.
09:36You don't see.
09:37You'vbour.
09:37I don't know.
09:38You've done me.
09:41I don't have to pay for andена.
09:43Oh.
09:47You are Mitsuke.
09:47I'm sorry.
09:49I'm sorry.
09:50Can I jump away from you?
09:50What the fuck?
09:51What-
09:52You've done?
09:53I'm sorry.
09:53You have no idea.
09:54You've done me.
09:54I'm sorry.
09:55You're a young man.
09:55I'm sorry.
09:56I'm sorry.
09:57I'm sorry.
09:58Do you know what you've done?
09:59Iему from the young people you wanted to rethink your life.
09:59She'll never get to see this amazing place.
10:17You took everything away from her, and she's not the only one.
10:22You'll pay for it all.
10:29Do you have a reservation?
10:31Mariel and Charity.
10:33Why are you so serious, Batman?
10:38If only she knew.
10:42So, Mario.
10:47Are you here for business, or...
10:52Pleasure.
11:00Off to work.
11:03Off to school.
11:05Just an ordinary day.
11:12We should be celebrating.
11:14But you're gone.
11:16And now, everything is about to change.
11:19But you're gone.
11:21And now, everything is about to change.
11:49Remember me, Mr. Thornwald?
11:52Get out of my way, scum.
11:59You'll never deny anyone else ever again.
12:03What?
12:04Where?
12:10Now, run!
12:14No, no, no.
12:18No!
12:20No!
12:23No!
12:26No!
12:28No!
12:29I thought I'd regret it, but this feels like justice.
12:50Now time for phase two.
12:59Chief, it's over here.
13:05Let's go.
13:11Who would murder the CEO of DB Health?
13:14What happened here, Chief?
13:18Randall Thornwald was murdered in cold blood.
13:22Hey, Chief, check this out.
13:25And there's two more.
13:27Defend and oppose?
13:29You don't think it's some whack job vigilante?
13:34Mere moments ago, a man now identified as 54-year-old Randall Thornwald, CEO of DB Health,
13:41has been shot dead using bullets labeled deny, defend, and depose.
13:46Police are speculating that the assailant might be a vigilante.
13:51Whoever did this, enjoy your freedom.
13:54Because we will hunt you down.
13:58And when I catch you, you'll never see the light of day again.
14:02I need to walk free long enough to make sure my message is heard loud and clear.
14:06The shooter run alive in a Randall Thornwald.
14:09I did this so others won't die like my sister did.
14:19But what would she think of me now?
14:30I have to go back.
14:32Yes, Mr. Mayor, I know Randall Thornwald was a close personal friend.
14:42He was a goddamn visionary.
14:43And we're doing everything we can to catch him.
14:46Find the psychopath and murder them, or you'll never work again.
14:49Sir, we'll squash this cocky fucker faster than you can.
14:53I'll call you back, Mr. Mayor.
14:54CCTV caught the perp biking in the Central Park.
15:00Hit it.
15:07I shouldn't have come back, but I can't let this go.
15:10Over there.
15:17They're faster than I thought.
15:20Search the area.
15:21I have an email.
15:30Where could it...
15:46Could this be a clue?
15:50Lieutenant.
15:51I knew there would be sacrifices.
15:56I have to get out of here.
16:01This will keep him busy.
16:02Let's see how long it takes for them to fix that.
16:07Y'all already know my struggle.
16:09So when I heard deny defend a...
16:10On the bullet?
16:11Like, unaliving is wrong, but I am on the edge.
16:15DB health is corrupt.
16:16And karma is a bitch, hunty.
16:19So I'm rooting for Mateo.
16:20Excuse me, officer.
16:26I just found this.
16:32Yeah, I was over there.
16:34You contaminated evidence, you idiot.
16:37My bad.
16:37Hey, chief.
16:39We found the backpacker.
16:40Get the fuck out of here.
16:49Get the fuck out of here.
16:53Give me that.
16:54There's a note.
17:07How much paper for a life, and you keep raising the price?
17:15Who gave them the right to choose?
17:18Time to adjust and fade their dues.
17:23Take this to forensics.
17:25Got it.
17:25The plot is thickening, and I think our vigilante has just earned his nickname.
17:31The Adjuster.
17:33Let me know what you think in the comments below.
17:34I won't be made a fool of.
17:43I won't be made a fool of.
17:43Have you seen this man?
18:10Tell us what you know, dickwad.
18:16Look, I don't see nothing.
18:18My insurance wouldn't cover new glasses, so we throw out these glasses.
18:22Everything's a big blur.
18:24Then get out of my face.
18:27This adjuster will pay with his life.
18:29People are rooting for this guy.
18:40It just shows how sick our society is.
18:42Okay, but the adjuster can get it done.
18:46He's too hot to commit.
18:48Some loser who wanted to be famous.
18:50All of this is pointless if they don't understand why I did it.
18:53But they will soon.
18:57Claims to seem humane!
18:59Denying claims to seem humane!
19:01Denying claims to seem humane!
19:03Who gave them the right to choose?
19:05A justice now or pay or do?
19:07Who gave them the right to choose?
19:09A justice now or pay or do?
19:11Holy shit.
19:12Who gave them the right to choose?
19:13A justice now or pay or do?
19:14This is what I wanted.
19:16The people rising up.
19:17Shouting back at the system that tried to silence them.
19:20Who gave them the right to choose?
19:22A justice now or pay or do?
19:23Denying claims to seem humane!
19:25Denying claims to seem humane!
19:27Denying claims to seem humane!
19:28You should be ashamed of yourself.
19:31Harassing people at your age?
19:33I'm proud to fight for what's right, for what we all deserve.
19:36You're defending a murderer!
19:39Who's that?
19:40Back!
19:41Who or what?
19:42Look at you, shaking like a leaf.
19:44You're nothing but a weak old...
19:45Don't lay a hand on her.
19:47How dare you touch me?
19:49Who's touching my wife?
19:52You better apologize, punk.
19:54Your wife's the one who should apologize.
19:56She stole something that doesn't belong to her.
19:58You loudmouth maggots are stealing our precious time.
20:03Leave!
20:04Before I make you, go ahead and try.
20:12You shouldn't have done that one.
20:14Oh yeah?
20:15How about this?
20:19Do you realize you just assaulted the CEO of Purple Crossing?
20:25I was defending myself.
20:26What you did, what you did to my friend Patty here, that was assault.
20:31Who's going to believe some decrepit old woman and her rat-faced sidekick over a CEO and his wife?
20:37Everyone here, they 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?
20:48I worked night shift for 35 years in a warehouse until the insurance company denied my back surgery.
20:55I was trained to become a pilot, until Purple Cross didn't have my insulin prescription.
21:00Now I'm blind in one eye and have to give up on everything I worked for.
21:04All they want is a chance to live.
21:08You're done taking that away?
21:09I'm done.
21:11Newsflash.
21:12The one who has the gold makes the rules, asshole.
21:14Aw, did no one tell you?
21:18This protest is pointless.
21:20You'll all stay poor and sick, begging for money you're never going to get.
21:25Like diseased hamsters stuck in a broken wheel.
21:28It's how the world works.
21:30You can't do it without money.
21:31It's always about money.
21:34You're right.
21:35When money talks,
21:39people listen.
21:40Here's Emili's insurance money.
21:45They need it more than I do.
21:47Free medication.
21:50There's enough here for everyone.
21:52Okay?
21:52Hey.
21:54There's over 200K in here.
21:57Either you stole this,
21:59or you're a drug dealer.
22:00Let's go out for a real nice dinner tonight, honey.
22:04Stealing from the sick once again.
22:06That's what you greedy CEOs do best, isn't it?
22:08Stealing.
22:09I'll bet half these leeching phlegm buckets owe me money.
22:16Pricks like you don't scatter me anymore.
22:18Yeah?
22:19How about the cops?
22:21They'll get me eventually.
22:23But not today.
22:25What makes you think you're so invincible?
22:27You're a scrawny little nobody.
22:29I'm the CEO of a billion-dollar healthcare company.
22:32You have no idea who I am.
22:35And you don't want to find out.
22:37Who gave you the right to choose?
22:42Adjust things now or pay your due?
22:44Who gave you the right to choose?
22:46Adjust things now or pay your due?
22:47I'm shutting this down!
22:57We're not going anywhere.
22:59We're not going anywhere!
23:02Who gave you the right to choose?
23:05A Justice now or pay your due?
23:07Who gave you the right to choose?
23:09Cops aren't going to be enough.
23:11We need the Mayor.
23:13Mayor Camden, there are violent protestors in front of the election.
23:16protesters in front of DB Health, intimidating pedestrians.
23:20Protesters, huh?
23:22Those 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.
23:35I'll be there in five.
23:36It's for you.
23:38It's for you.
23:42Yeah, one more for you.
23:44Please.
23:48It'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.
23:58Consider an adjustment.
24:01There he is, the adjuster.
24:06That's the mayor.
24:07Now you'll be sorry.
24:08Mayor Camden, he's here.
24:10This 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.
24:21No, I am the adjuster.
24:29No, I'm the adjuster.
24:32It's me.
24:33I'm the adjuster.
24:34No, it's me.
24:35I'm the adjuster.
24:38Go.
24:39Now.
24:40Get him!
24:42Let's go.
24:42He's getting away!
24:46Get him!
24:47He's getting away!
24:50Don't let him go!
24:51Don't let him go!
24:59There!
25:00There!
25:02Get him!
25:07Not so clever after all.
25:12Hey, man.
25:27Hey, you cold?
25:29Can you use the jacket?
25:33Hang right there.
25:36God bless you.
25:43Take care of it, man.
25:44Stay safe.
25:4726-year-old Matteo Leone has been identified as the CEO shooter.
25:52A $10,000 reward is being offered for any info that comes into our office.
25:57My name is out there now, but I won't hide for much longer.
26:12I wish someone didn't have to die to make them listen.
26:28I wish I could hear my sister's laugh just one more time.
26:32But life isn't fair.
26:38Do you need some help?
26:40Do you mind?
26:40I don't mind.
26:42I don't mind.
26:42I have to put her on these walks so she can sleep.
26:44And then when she's asleep, I can never lift this up.
26:50Have a good night.
26:53The healthcare system has failed the people, and it needs to be taken down.
26:57This won't bring Amelia back.
27:10But it will save millions.
27:27I'm not a monster.
27:29Accountability is part of the plan.
27:31I'm not a monster.
27:39Have a good one.
27:42And I'm almost ready to take it.
27:44I'm also interested in the daughter of honor.
27:58The посмотрим, is that the family.
28:05The peace will remain alone.
28:07I don't know if you're guilty of all.
28:09I can't run forever.
28:19One last thing to check off the list.
28:26Let me get a McCrazy with Oreo space.
28:30That's fire.
28:31Can I have a bite?
28:34What?
28:34You want a bite?
28:35Yeah.
28:37If you pay for your own, I guess.
28:39Sure.
28:40Maybe.
28:40Okay, sure.
28:41Can I get two then?
28:45And you can keep the change.
28:49No fucking way.
28:54Hey.
28:56I got the guy you're looking for.
28:58My time as a free man is ending.
29:01But are any of us really free?
29:09Come on, come on, come on.
29:12Come on, come on, come on, come on.
29:14Well, well, well.
29:17Matteo Leone.
29:18Please, don't do anything stupid.
29:22Is there a problem, officers?
29:23You little shit.
29:29Chief, it's all here.
29:34You're under arrest, motherfucker.
29:42You have the right to remain silent.
29:44Go ahead and arrest me.
29:46The people are about to wake up.
29:52No 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.
30:00Will you join me?
30:01Matteo 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?
30:18They have it all wrong.
30:20Not guilty.
30:27Answer me, you shit-eating cockroach!
30:31Or 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 him go, Chief!
30:48Let him go!
30:52Can'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 until 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?
31:17Well, let's see what the streets have to say.
31:18Come on.
31:19After you, gentlemen.
31:39Hang in there, Mateo.
31:41We're all on your side.
31:42You're fighting game.
31:43You're fighting game.
31:46You're going down.
31:47Great use of resources, guys.
31:53So talking.
31:54The 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?
32:08You're empty threats.
32:09You think you're some sort of superhero?
32:12You're shit on the bottom of a shoe.
32:13A fly about to be swatted.
32:15Easy for you to say.
32:17Surrounded by cops in your bulletproof vests.
32:19Cowards!
32:21All of you!
32:22I could rip you apart!
32:29You're nothing but a filthy criminal.
32:32Powerless.
32:34Stupid.
32:35Pathetic.
32:36You're no one.
32:37Back off.
32:38Let the court decide.
32:40Innocent is not proven guilty.
32:42Innocent is not proven guilty.
32:44Innocent is not proven guilty.
32:46Innocent is not proven guilty.
32:48It's completely unjust.
32:50It's an insult to the intelligence
32:51of the American people
32:52and their lived experience.
32:57It's an insult to the American people
32:59and their lived experience.
33:00They can yell all they want,
33:01but they can't keep you
33:02from running in jail.
33:04Come on.
33:06Hear me!
33:07See you in court.
33:09Innocent is not proven guilty.
33:12Innocent is not proven guilty.
33:14Innocent is not proven guilty.
33:14Innocent is not proven guilty.
33:17No one can protect you in here.
33:22Let's see how long you last.
33:24Maybe I deserve everything
33:30that's coming to me.
33:34What you in here for, princess?
33:36It's your name, boy.
33:39Better start answering me, son,
33:41before I fuck you up, boy.
33:42I'm gonna fuck you up so bad
33:44they ain't gonna be able to recognize you
33:45when I'm fucking through.
33:46Now, what's your fucking name, boy?
33:48Mateo, Leone.
33:56Oh, shit.
33:58You the adjuster.
34:05Dixon, you see the brothers in here,
34:07they're all gonna test you
34:08and they're gonna fuck with you.
34:10But they gotta get to us first.
34:12And my man Terrence over here
34:14is gonna get you cleaned up.
34:15Yo, T, clean this man up.
34:18Take a seat, bro.
34:27The denial letter came
34:28a week after we buried her.
34:32I'm so sorry that happened.
34:34And what you did
34:35made a lot of guys in here
34:37feel a lot better.
34:39Just feel less hopeless.
34:45There's no going back.
34:47I'll fight to the death.
34:52Janet here,
34:53but the man of the hour
34:54hasn't shown yet.
34:55If you didn't know,
34:56today is the first day
34:58of the trial of the century.
35:00The United States
35:00versus Matteo Leone,
35:02also known as the adjuster.
35:05You saw the wanted posters.
35:07Corrupt CEO's time
35:09is running out.
35:10You crusty plebeians
35:11could never get past security.
35:13Oh, yeah?
35:14You sure about that?
35:15It's called
35:16survival of the fix.
35:17We can pass.
35:19The vibes are giving
35:20pressure cooker.
35:21Get her, get her, get her.
35:28Get her, get her.
35:28People are waking up.
35:54Enjoy it while it lasts.
35:57Our case is airtight.
35:58After this,
36:00nothing but prison and death
36:01for a sadistic monster like you.
36:03You see about that?
36:06Talk to my client again,
36:07and I'll have to be disbarred.
36:09I'll see you in court.
36:10All right.
36:11Ladies and gentlemen
36:36of the jury,
36:37Matteo Leone
36:38viciously targeted
36:40Randall Thornwald
36:41rather than grieve
36:43with dignity
36:44when his sister
36:45died of cancer.
36:46He cruelly premeditated
36:47the murder
36:48of a loving family man,
36:50a successful,
36:52visionary CEO
36:53worth billions
36:54who purposely
36:55profited off
36:56of people's pain.
36:59These witnesses
37:00will paint a picture
37:01of just how dangerous
37:04Matteo Leone is.
37:05He could have saved
37:12his sister,
37:13but he was too broke
37:15to pay.
37:15He had motive.
37:17He was aggressive
37:17from the start.
37:18He's a bully.
37:20He pushed me
37:21and threatened
37:22my husband.
37:23He wanted them
37:24to suffer.
37:25That's not true.
37:27He thought he was
37:27so smart
37:28with all his messages.
37:30Missileone
37:30is entitled,
37:32manipulable,
37:33and frankly,
37:35psychotic.
37:38Thank you,
37:39Mayor Camden.
37:41For my final witness,
37:43I call Brady Thornwald,
37:45Randall Thornwald's son.
37:46Brady,
38:00how has the death
38:03of your father,
38:04your hero,
38:06affected you?
38:08Will this kid
38:08be the nail
38:09in my coffin?
38:09My father's not
38:15my hero.
38:19Uh,
38:20you mean?
38:22I mean,
38:23I was incredibly
38:25devastated
38:25when that
38:28cold-blooded
38:29killer
38:30took my
38:32father's
38:33life away
38:34from me.
38:37You know what?
38:38Fuck that.
38:38My dad enjoyed
38:40hurting people.
38:41His entire
38:42vision as CEO
38:43was built
38:44on keeping people sick.
38:46And I'm not just
38:46going to sit here
38:47and lie
38:47because some company
38:48paid me to.
38:49You disrespect
38:50your own father.
38:51After everything
38:52he did for you?
38:53You know what?
38:53Lock me up.
38:54I don't care.
38:56Objection!
38:56He can't just...
38:57I mean, sit down.
38:58You're nothing lower
38:59than suing sludge.
39:00Mr. Mayor,
39:01first,
39:02you treat him
39:02like some kind
39:03of sue event.
39:05Order!
39:08Mayor Camden,
39:11one more word
39:12and you'll be held
39:13in contempt.
39:15Yeah, yeah.
39:16No further questions.
39:19Based on the evidence
39:20provided,
39:23Matteo Leone
39:23undoubtedly
39:24is guilty
39:25of murder
39:25in the first degree.
39:27Prosecution rests.
39:30Ms. Weinhart?
39:31Judge will shine
39:36people of the jury.
39:38As the prosecution
39:40detailed,
39:41my client,
39:42Matteo Leone,
39:43shot and killed
39:44the CEO
39:45of DB Health.
39:48Randall Thornwall,
39:49dead.
39:55Someone had to do it.
39:58That's right.
39:59My client does not
40:00deny killing
40:01Mr. Thornwall.
40:02What he does deny,
40:04it was unwarranted.
40:06Mr. Leone
40:06had to act drastically
40:08to save lives.
40:10And today,
40:10we're here
40:11to defend his right
40:12so he can defend
40:13himself and others
40:15from becoming victims
40:17of a murderous corporation.
40:18Go!
40:20Go!
40:21Go!
40:21Go!
40:21Go!
40:21Go!
40:22Go!
40:22Go!
40:22Go!
40:23Go!

40:24Go!
40:24Go!
40:25Go!
40:25Go!
40:26Go!
40:27Order!
40:27I call Patti Sinclair
40:30to the stand.
40:43Please tell us
40:45what happened
40:45to your husband.
40:49Clay and I,
40:50we just found out
40:51that we were
40:52going to be grandparents.
40:53then one night,
40:58Clay had a heart attack.
41:01A doctor prescribed
41:02a treatment plan,
41:03but DB Health said,
41:04no, not medically necessary.
41:06It would cost hundreds
41:07of thousands out of pocket.
41:09So we appealed,
41:10but all of our claims
41:12were denied.
41:13I was denied a walking
41:14boot from my fractured ankle.
41:16It got so bad,
41:17they had to amputate,
41:18but they couldn't
41:19because they don't
41:19make prosthetics.
41:20I got addicted
41:21to pain medication,
41:23but denied surgery
41:24to cure my pain for good.
41:26We went bankrupt,
41:27and now we're homeless.
41:28He couldn't afford it,
41:30so he died.
41:32Appealed,
41:33but now she's paralyzed.
41:43If DB Health had approved
41:44my husband's surgery,
41:46he would still be alive.
41:48This young man,
41:49Mateo,
41:50saw how so many of us
41:52were being taken
41:53advantage of by DB Health,
41:55predatory business.
41:58And he did what no one else
42:00had the courage,
42:01or actually the balls,
42:03to do.
42:04He stood up.
42:11I couldn't have said it
42:12any better.
42:15Your Honor,
42:16I called Mr. Mateo Leoti
42:18to stand.
42:31This isn't a circus!
42:33Order in the court!
42:34Do you swear to tell the truth,
42:40and nothing but the truth?
42:45If you swear to listen?
42:51I swear to tell the truth.
42:56Mr. Leone,
42:57what drove you
42:59to kill the CEO
43:00of DB Health?
43:08Your Honor,
43:09it'll be better
43:10if I show you.
43:10Objection!
43:12This is new evidence
43:13not found to be-
43:13Sit down, counselor.
43:16Go ahead.
43:17Thanks for being here.
43:26While I still have a voice,
43:28I want to tell you why.
43:32This is Amelia,
43:34my nine-year-old sister.
43:37She was just a baby
43:39when our parents died.
43:41And it's been the two of us
43:42against the world ever since.
43:44The doctor said she could
43:45beat leukemia if she started
43:47treatment right away.
43:49But DB Health wouldn't cover it.
43:52Even with a decent job,
43:53I couldn't afford to pay
43:54out of pocket.
43:56So I appealed.
43:57I was optimistic.
43:59I didn't know that there are
44:00almost 200,000 health insurance
44:02related deaths per year.
44:05As we waited for a response,
44:07I watched my amazing little
44:08sister get sicker.
44:12And then DB Health
44:12denied her appeal.
44:13I did everything I could
44:18to fight back.
44:20I even pleaded with the CEO
44:21himself to save her life.
44:26He told me it was nothing personal.
44:28It's just the business of keeping people sick.
44:31And then he smiled.
44:34And then he smiled.
44:38Amelia died.
44:41And I found out our story is
44:43very,
44:45very common.
44:46I'm talking mass corruption
44:51leading to massive amounts
44:52of lives ruined.
44:54Hundreds of thousands
44:55of lives ruined.
44:57All to fill their pockets.
45:00But we're bigger than them.
45:02All right?
45:03We're bigger than them.
45:04If we stand up together,
45:06who's with me?
45:07V!
45:17The defense rests.
45:25Nothing more to do but wait.
45:26After thorough consideration,
45:30Purple Cross Health
45:31will discontinue
45:32our limited anesthesia policy.
45:34Our company
45:35will end its wait-and-see
45:36policy beginning
45:37at the first of the month.
45:38We'll be halting
45:39our lottery policy effectively.
45:41Whatever happens today,
45:43you did this.
45:50We the jury find Matteo Leone.
45:53Dear Tracy,
45:54Your letter made me tear up.
45:56I am so sorry
45:57you and your daughter
45:58had to go through
45:59such senseless pain.
46:00No one should have to
46:01experience that kind
46:02of systemic failure.
46:03You are an inspiration
46:05and your daughter is lucky
46:06to have a mother
46:07who didn't back down.
46:08All my best,
46:09Matteo Leone.
46:10Death or life in prison.
46:23At least I said my peace.
46:25Death or life in prison.
46:27At least I said my peace.
46:29To be continued...
