00:01CEO of DB Health has been shot dead.
00:04Matteo Leone has been identified as a shooter.
00:07This is for you, Amelia.
00:10My nine-year-old sister.
00:13Your insurance died her claim.
00:15She was fine.
00:17No, Amelia!
00:19I want you to do the right thing.
00:20That's business.
00:22You will never deny anyone again.
00:25Search the area.
00:26I didn't know that there are almost 200,000 health insurance-related deaths per year.
00:32Matteo Leone.
00:34Go ahead and arrest me.
00:35The people are about to wake up.
00:37Who has the right to choose?
00:39Adjustings now or pay your bills?
00:41The United States versus Matteo Leone, also known as the adjuster.
00:45He's a murderer.
00:46You think you're a hero?
00:48You're a terrorist.
00:49For the second charge, first-degree murder, we, the jury, find Matteo Leone...
00:56Do you know what it's like to watch someone you love endure constant senseless pain?
01:13Of course you don't.
01:15You're incapable of empathy.
01:18I tried to do it the right way.
01:24But you made it impossible.
01:27And now, I understand suffering.
01:32All I feel is rage in my chest.
01:37I live with a hole in my heart.
01:50And soon you will too.
01:53This is for you, sis.
01:56This is for all of us.
01:58Her chemotherapy is supposed to start today.
02:01Please, please, just check one more time.
02:03You should calm down.
02:04I will check one more time for you, okay?
02:06Okay.
02:07Your insurance did not her claim.
02:08The treatment is canceled.
02:13Canceled?
02:14What?
02:17So you're telling me there's nothing we can do?
02:19You want to continue treatment?
02:21Then pay out of pocket.
02:31You will die.
02:33I've done all that I can.
02:35Still got a problem?
02:36You can appeal or take it up with the CEO of your insurance company.
02:51I have to appeal.
02:52Or Amelia's gonna die.
02:54I have to appeal.
02:55Or Amelia's gonna die.
02:58Dale.
02:59I don't feel good.
03:01What?
03:06I still believe that someone up there might listen.
03:21They denied the appeal?
03:31No.
03:32No.
03:33I don't want to die.
03:34I don't want to die.
03:35It's okay, Amelia.
03:36You're okay.
03:37You're okay.
03:38You're gonna be okay.
03:39Someone help.
03:40Someone help.
03:41Doctor, hello?
03:43Please.
03:44She's all I have left.
03:45Please, someone save her.
03:52Your sister's leukemia has spread.
03:54And I gave her emergency stem cell transplant.
03:56But without continuing the treatment,
03:58she has no chance.
04:21I'm done going down with these money-hungered assholes.
04:28Gonna cover my sister's treatment or I'll...
04:31Insurance troubles?
04:35TB Health is killing my little sister.
04:38She's only nine.
04:39Evil snakes.
04:41My husband's gone because they denied every last claim.
04:45It would have been his sixth and third birthday today.
04:49They were his favorite.
04:51Now I can't have one in his honor because...
04:54TB Health wouldn't cover my tremor medications anymore.
05:02Thank you, young man.
05:04Sorry about your sister.
05:07I'm sorry about your husband.
05:12Those greedy bastards don't care if any of us live or die
05:14as long as their pockets are lined.
05:17Don't let them get you down.
05:18We've got to fight back.
05:19If I could just meet him face to face.
05:33If I could just tell him.
05:35Check your hands there.
05:37We'll show you right now.
05:38All right, you know the drill.
05:40Bound your horses, boys.
05:42We'll take 100K and the crib keeper's wife over there.
05:45She won't last a week.
05:47I'm gonna get 200,000 on the cancer, kid.
05:49Those little coffins are so cute.
05:53Don't you talk about my sister!
05:56Don't you talk about my sister!
05:59You asshole!
06:00You go apologize to her right now!
06:02Make me!
06:04What do you want, dipshit?
06:05Mr. Thornwald!
06:06You're coming to deny my sister's leukemia treatment!
06:08I want you to do the right thing!
06:09Save her life!
06:10You come hear me again, you're gonna be very sorry.
06:12It's you who will be sorry!
06:34If you won't hear me out, I'll make you.
06:42Hey!
06:51Who are you?
06:53Stop! Get back here!
06:55Security, catch him!
06:56The fuck is this?
07:12You underestimated me.
07:14You underestimated me.
07:17I'm sorry, who are you?
07:19The guy who sits there you're slowly killing!
07:22He's only nine years old!
07:24She has her whole life ahead of her!
07:27You want a bottle cry, baby?
07:29You think I give a fuck about some snotty kid's wasted potential?
07:33He was denied, so what?
07:35That's business.
07:37It's not my fault you're too broke to save your sister's life.
07:40You heartless son of a...
07:42Jake!
07:44When the world finds out what you've done to children,
07:47how many people your business has killed!
07:49Bill, what?
07:51Nobody's gonna listen to you.
07:53You're not even a pimple on my ass.
07:56You're not even a pimple on my ass.
08:03You!
08:05You!
08:07You!
08:09You!
08:10Randall!
08:12Randall!
08:14You shouldn't have done that!
08:17Gallons of blood on your hands, but soon yours will be on mine.
08:28Don't give up, Amelia.
08:30Keep fighting.
08:32I'll find another way.
08:33No.
08:47Keep this.
08:49So, Mom and Daddy, you love them.
08:51No!
08:55No!
08:56No!
08:57Amelia!
08:58No!
08:59Amelia!
09:02Doctors!
09:03Doctors!
09:05Amelia!
09:11I hate how quiet it is without you.
09:14You were just a kid.
09:16You had a whole life unlived.
09:19A future.
09:21But they took it from you.
09:24They denied you.
09:25Almost enough to pay for the treatment that would have saved your life.
09:46A sick joke.
09:47How naive to trust the system, to believe that a rich health insurance CEO would actually care about people.
10:00It's unjust.
10:02I'm done being a pawn.
10:03You think you're untouchable.
10:15You hide behind your billions while the rest of us fight for scraps.
10:24But all that's gonna change.
10:27Because you're not a god.
10:29When my bullet hits you.
10:33You'll bleed.
10:59You're not a god.
11:04She'll never get to see this amazing place.
11:19You took everything away from her and she's not the only one.
11:24You'll pay for it all.
11:26You have a reservation?
11:32Mario Vanchotti.
11:34Why so serious?
11:37Batman.
11:40If only she knew.
11:44So, Mario.
11:49Are you here for business or...
11:54Pleasure.
11:56Of course.
12:03Off to work.
12:04Off to school.
12:06Just an ordinary day.
12:08We should be celebrating.
12:09We should be celebrating
12:14But you're gone
12:21And now everything is about to change
12:39Remember me, Mr. Thornwald?
12:54Get out of my way, scum
12:55You'll never deny anyone else ever again
13:09Now run!
13:36I thought I'd regret it
13:38But this feels like justice
13:45Now time for phase two

26:56My name is out there now, but I won't hide for much longer.
26:58I wish someone didn't have to die to make them listen.
27:26Listen, I wish I could hear my sister's laugh just one more time, but life isn't fair.
27:37Do you need some help?
27:39Do you mind?

27:50The health care system has failed the people, and it needs to be taken down.

30:55I won't stop fighting, but I can't do it alone
30:58Will you join me?
31:05Matteo Leone is a cold-blooded killer
31:07Who brutally murdered CEO Randall Thornwald
31:10For his crimes, we are seeking the death penalty
31:13How do you plead?
31:16They have it all wrong
31:18I'm not guilty
31:20Answer me, you shit-eating cockroach
31:28Or should I pull the teeth out from your pretty little smile
31:34Don't you realize you're going to get the death penalty?
31:38I don't realize nobody's free until everybody's free
31:40Let him go, Chief

35:53If you didn't know
35:54Today is the first day
35:55Of the trial of the century
35:57The United States
35:58Versus Matteo Leone
35:59Also known as
36:01The adjuster
36:01You saw the wanted posters
36:04Corrupt CEO's time
36:06Is running out
36:07You crusty plebeians
36:09Could never get past security
36:11Oh yeah
36:11You sure about that
36:12It's called survival
36:14Of the fix
36:14The vibes are giving
36:18Pressure cooker
36:19Get her
36:25Get her
36:44Thank you
36:45The people are waking up.
36:52Enjoy it while it lasts.
36:54Our case is airtight.
36:56After this, nothing but prison and death for a sadistic monster like you.
37:01You say about that?
37:03Talk to my client again, and I'll have you disbarred.
37:06I'll see you in court.
37:08All right.
37:15Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, Matteo Leone viciously targeted Randall Thornwald.
37:39Rather than grieve with dignity when his sister died of cancer,
37:43he cruelly premeditated the murder of a loving family man,
37:48a successful visionary CEO worth billions.
37:51Who purposely profited off of people's pain.
37:57These witnesses will paint a picture of just how dangerous Matteo Leone is.
38:08He could have saved his sister, but he was too broke to pay.
38:12He had motive.
38:14He was aggressive from the start.
38:15He's a bully.
38:17He pushed me and threatened my husband.
38:20He wanted them to suffer.
38:22That's not true.
38:24He thought he was so smart with all his messages.
38:27Mr. Leone is entitled, manipulable, and frankly, psychotic.
38:33Thank you, Mayor Camden.
38:38For my final witness, I call Brady Thornwald, Randall Thornwald's son.
38:43Brady, how has the death of your father, your hero, affected you?
39:05Will this kid be the nail in my coffin?
39:06My father's not my hero.
39:16Uh, you mean?
39:19I mean, I was incredibly devastated when that cold-blooded killer took my father's life away from me.
39:32You know what? Fuck that.
39:35My dad enjoyed hurting people.
39:37His entire vision as CEO was built on keeping people sick.
39:42And I'm not just going to sit here and lie because some company paid me to.
39:45You disrespect your own father.
39:48After everything he did for you?
39:50You know what? Lock me up.
39:51I don't care.
39:52Objection. He can't just...
39:54I mean, sit down.
39:55You're nothing lower than sewage sludge.
39:57Mr. Mayor, first, you treat him like some kind of sew event.
40:01Order!
40:06Mayor Camden, one more word and you'll be held in contempt.
40:11Yeah, yeah.
40:12No further questions.
40:14Based on the evidence provided, Matteo Leone undoubtedly is guilty of murder in the first degree.
40:24Prosecution rests.
40:27Ms. Weinhart.
40:31Judge will shine.
40:33People to jury.
40:34As the prosecution detailed, my client, Matteo Leone, shot and killed the CEO of DB Health, Randall Thornwall, dead.
40:51Someone had to do it.
40:54That's right.
40:55My client does not deny killing Mr. Thornwall.
40:58What he does deny, it was unwarranted.
41:01Mr. Leone had to act drastically to save lives.
41:06And today, we're here to defend his right so he can defend himself and others from becoming victims of a murderous corporation.
41:23Order!
41:24I call Patty Sinclair to the stand.
41:31Please tell us what happened to your husband.
41:45Clay and I, we just found out that we were going to be grandparents.
41:49Then one night, Clay had a heart attack.
41:57A doctor prescribed a treatment plan, but DB Health said, no, not medically necessary.
42:02It would cost hundreds of thousands out of pocket.
42:05So we appealed, but all of our claims were denied.
42:08I was denied a walking boot for my fractured ankle.
42:12It got so bad they had to amputate, but they couldn't because they don't make prosthetics.
42:16I got addicted to pain medication, but denied the surgery to cure my pain for good.
42:22We went bankrupt, and now we're homeless.
42:24He couldn't afford it, so he died.
42:28Appealed, but now she's paralyzed.
42:30If DB Health had approved my husband's surgery, he would still be alive.
42:44This young man, Mateo, saw how so many of us were being taken advantage of by DB Health's predatory business.
42:52And he did what no one else had the courage, or actually the balls, to do.
43:00He stood up.
43:06I couldn't have said it any better.
43:11Your Honor, I call Mr. Mateo Leoti to stand.
43:22This isn't a circus.
43:29Order in the court.
43:34Do you swear to tell the truth, and nothing but the truth?
43:41If you swear to listen.
43:47I swear to tell the truth.
43:48Mr. Leoti, what drove you to kill the CEO of DB Health?
44:04Your Honor, it'll be better if I show you.
44:06Oh, objection!
44:08This is new evidence not found to be...
44:09Sit down, Counselor.
44:12Go ahead.
44:18Thanks for being here.
44:22While I still have a voice, I want to tell you why.
44:27This is Amelia.
44:29My nine-year-old sister.
44:33She was just a baby when our parents died.
44:36And it's been the two of us against the world ever since.
44:39The doctor said she could beat leukemia if she started treatment right away.
44:44But DB Health wouldn't cover it.
44:47Even with a decent job, I couldn't afford to pay out of pocket.
44:51So I appealed.
44:53I was optimistic.
44:54I didn't know that there are almost 200,000 health insurance-related deaths per year.
45:00As we waited for a response,
45:02I watched my amazing little sister get sicker.
45:07And then DB Health denied her appeal.
45:11I did everything I could to fight back.
45:14I even pleaded with the CEO himself to save her life.
45:21He told me it was nothing personal.
45:23It was just the business of keeping people sick.
45:29And then he smiled.
45:33Amelia died.
45:35And I found out our story is very, very common.
45:43I'm talking mass corruption leading to massive amounts of lives ruined.
45:49Hundreds of thousands of lives ruined.
45:51All to fill their pockets.
45:53But we're bigger than them.
45:57All right?
45:57We're bigger than them.
45:59If we stand up together.
46:01Who's with me?
46:03The defense rests.
46:14Nothing more to do but wait.
46:23After thorough consideration,
46:25Purple Cross Health will discontinue our limited anesthesia policy.
46:29Our company will end its wait-and-see policy beginning at the first of the month.
46:33We'll be halting our lottery policy effectively.
46:35Whatever happens today,
46:37you did this.
46:38We the jury find Matteo Leone.
46:49Dear Tracy,
46:50your letter made me tear up.
46:52I am so sorry you and your daughter had to go through such senseless pain.
46:56No one should have to experience that kind of systemic failure.
46:59You are an inspiration,
47:00and your daughter is lucky to have a mother who didn't back down.
47:04All my best,
47:05Matteo Leone.
47:08Death or life in prison.
47:19At least I said my piece.
47:20I am so sorry you and your littleτ m Goray met you.
47:23That's what I thought you said.
47:27What happened you were a little piece of punch.
47:31What happened to you?
47:33You were a little bit more.
47:34The process was one day for you to defeat you.
47:36You were a little bit better now.
47:43What happened to you?
