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.
01:05The treatment 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's 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.
02:31I never tell.
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, I asked Brad.
02:51You know, 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 this money on my assholes.
03:20I've got to cover my sister's treatment or I'll...
03:27Insurance trouble?
03:32DB 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 DB Health wouldn't cover my tremor medications anymore.
03:59Thank you, young man.
04:01Sorry about your sister.
04:04I'm sorry about your husband.
04:05Those 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 it out.
04:34I'm going to show you right now.
04:35All right, I know the drill.
04:37Get down 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.
05:06Save 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!
05:54What the fuck is this?
06:09You underestimated me.
06:12You underestimated me.
06:14I'm sorry, who are you?
06:17The 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 cry, baby?
06:27You think I'd 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!
06:41When the world finds out what you've done to children,
06:44how many people your business has killed.
06:47Bill, what?
06:47Nobody's going to listen to you.
06:53You're not even a pimple on my ass.
06:56Jay!
06:59Jay!
07:02Jay!
07:04Jay!
07:05Jay Randall!
07:07Randall!
07:09You shouldn't have done that!
07:15Gallons of blood on your hands,
07:23but soon yours will be on mine.
07:26Don't give up, Amelia.
07:28Keep fighting.
07:30I'll find another way.
07:31No.
07:45Keep this.
07:47So, Mom and Daddy, you love them.
07:53No.
07:54No!
07:55Amelia!
07:55No!
07:56Amelia!
07:57Amelia!
07:57I 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.
08:23No.
08:23No.
08:23No.
08:23No.
08:23No.
08:23No.
08:23No.
08:23No.
08:27No.
08:40Almost enough to pay for the treatment that would have saved your life.
08:44A sick joke.
08:48How naive to trust the system.
08:50To believe that a rich health insurance CEO would actually care about people.
08:57It's unjust.
09:00I'm done being a pawn.
09:10You think you're untouchable.
09:13You hide behind your billions while the rest of us fight for scraps.
09:20But all that's gonna change because you're not a god.
09:28When my bullet hits you, you'll bleed.
09:50She'll never get to see this amazing place.
10:05You took everything away from her, and she's not the only one.
10:22You'll pay for it all.
10:24Do you have a reservation?
10:31Mariel and Charity.
10:34Why are you so serious, Batman?
10:38If only she knew.
10:42So, Mario.
10:44Are you here for business, or...
10:52Pleasure.
10:53Off to work.
11:02Off to school.
11:04Just an ordinary day.
11:06We should be celebrating.
11:19But you're gone.
11:21And now everything is about to change.
11:24Remember me, Mr. Thornwald?
11:50Get out of my way, scum.
11:59He'll never deny anyone else ever again.
12:10Now run!
12:12Run!
12:12Run!
12:13Run!
12:14Run!
12:15Run!
12:16Run!
12:16Run!
12:17Run!
12:18Run!
12:18Run!
12:18Run!
12:19Run!
12:19Run!
12:19Run!
12:19Run!
12:19Run!
12:20Run!
12:36I thought I'd regret it.
12:42But this feels like justice.
12:44Now time for phase two
12:51Chief, it's over here
13:05Let's go
13:11Who would murder the CEO of DV Health?
13:15What happened here, Chief?
13:18Randall Thornwald was murdered in full blood
13:21Hey, Chief, check this out
13:23And there's two more
13:26Defend and oppose
13:28You don't think it's some whack job vigilance?
13:34Mere moments ago, a man now identified as 54-year-old Randall Thornwald
13:39CEO of DV Health
13:41Has been shot dead
13:42Using bullets labeled deny, defend, and depose
13:46Police are speculating that the assailant might be a vigilante
13:49Whoever did this, enjoy your freedom
13:54Because we will hunt you down
13:57And when I catch you
13:59You'll never see the light of day again
14:01I need to walk free long enough to make sure my message is heard loud and clear
14:06I 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
14:41He 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
14:48Sir, we'll squash this cocky fucker fast and then you can
14:52I'll call you back, Mr. Mayor
14:54CCTV caught the perp biking in the Central Park
14:59Hit it
15:01I shouldn't have come back, but I can't
15:09Search the area
15:21I have an email
15:22Where could it
15:39Could this be a clue?
15:50Lieutenant
15:50I knew there would be sacrifices
15:55I have to get out of here
15:57This will keep him busy
16:02Let's see how long it takes for them to fix that
16:05Y'all already know my struggle
16:08So when I heard deny defend
16:10On the bullets?
16:11Like, end-aliving is wrong, but I am on the edge
16:15DB health is corrupt
16:16And karma's a bitch, hunty
16:18So I'm rooting for Mateo
16:20Excuse me, officer
16:25I just found it
16:27Yeah, I was over there
16:33You contaminated evidence, you idiot
16:36My bad
16:38Hey, chief
16:38Hey, chief
16:38We found the backpack
16:40Get the fuck out of here
16:49Give me that
16:54There's a note
17:07How much paper for a life
17:12And you keep raising the price
17:15Who gave them the right to choose
17:18Time to adjust
17:20Time to adjust and fade their dues
17:21Take this to forensics
17:24Got it
17:25The plot is thickening
17:28And I think our vigilante
17:29Has just earned his nickname
17:31The Adjuster
17:32Let me know what you think
17:33In the comments below
17:34I won't be made a fool of
17:43Have you seen this man?
18:10Tell us what you know, dickwad
18:13Look, I don't see nothing
18:18My insurance wouldn't cover new glasses
18:20So we throw out these glasses
18:22Everything's a big blur
18:23Then get out of my face
18:25This adjuster will play with his life
18:29People are rooting for this guy
18:39Just shows how sick our society is
18:42Okay, but the adjuster can get it done
18:44But he's too hot to commit
18:48Some loser who wanted to be famous
18:50All of this is pointless
18:51If they don't understand why I did it
18:53But they will soon
18:55Claim to seem humane
18:58Denying claim to seem humane
19:01Denying claim 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
19:11Who gave them the right to choose
19:13A justice now or pay
19:14This is what I wanted
19:15The people rising up
19:17Shouting back at the system
19:19That tried to silence them
19:20Who gave them the right to choose
19:22A justice now or pay
19:23Denying claim to seem humane
19:25Denying claim to seem humane
19:27Denying claim to seem humane
19:28You should be ashamed of yourself
19:30Harassing people at your age
19:33I'm proud to fight for what's right
19:35For what we all deserve
19:36You're defending a murderer
19:38Who are 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
19:46How 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
20:00Are stealing our precious time
20:02Leave
20:03Before I make you
20:05Go ahead and try
20:06You shouldn't have done that one
20:14Yeah?
20:15How about this?
20:16Do you realize you just assaulted the CEO of Purple Crossing?
20:25I was defending myself
20:26What you did
20:27What you did to my friend Patty here
20:29That was assault
20:31Who's gonna believe some decrepit old woman
20:33And her rat-faced sidekick
20:35Over a CEO and his wife?
20:37Everyone here
20:38They all saw what happened
20:39You mean these lazy invalids
20:41Who'd rather shout themselves hoarse
20:44Demanding money from us
20:46Than work an honest job
20:48I worked night shift
20:50For 35 years in a warehouse
20:52Till the insurance company denied my back surgery
20:55I was trained to become a pilot
20:56Until Purple Cross denied my insulin prescription
20:59Now I'm blind in one eye
21:01And have to give up on everything I worked for
21:03All they want is a chance to live
21:06You're done taking that away?
21:09I'm done
21:10Newsflash
21:12The one who has the gold makes the rules, asshole
21:14Aw, did no one tell you?
21:17This protest is pointless
21:19You'll all stay poor and sick
21:23Begging for money you're never gonna get
21:25Like diseased hamsters stuck in a broken wheel
21:28It's how the world works
21:29You can't do it without money
21:31It's always about money
21:33You're right
21:34When money talks
21:36People listen
21:40Here's Amelia's insurance money
21:45They need it more than I do
21:47Free medication
21:48There's enough here for everyone
21:51Okay?
21:52Hey
21:52There's over 200k in here
21:56Either you stole this
21:58Or you're a drug dealer
22:00Let's go out for a real nice dinner tonight, honey
22:03Stealing 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
22:13Pretty lucky you don't scare me anymore
22:18Yeah?
22:19How about the cops?
22:21They'll get me eventually
22:22But not today
22:24What makes you think you're so invincible?
22:27You're a scrawny little nobody
22:28I'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?
22:45Adjust things now or pay your due?
22:47Who gave you the right to choose?
22:50Adjust things now or pay your due?
22:52Who gave you the right to choose?
22:54Adjust things now or pay your due?
22:56I'm shutting this down
22:57We're not going anywhere
23:00We're not going anywhere
23:02Who gave you the right to choose?
23:06Adjust things now or pay your due?
23:08Who gave you the right to choose?
23:10Cops aren't going to be enough
23:12We need the mayor
23:13Mayor Camden
23:15There are violent protesters 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.
23:34I'll be there in five.
23:36It's for you.
23:38It's for you.
23:42Yeah, one more for you.
23:44Please.
23:45It'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!
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.
24:21No.
24:27I am the adjuster.
24:29No.
24:30I'm the adjuster.
24:32It's me.
24:33I'm the adjuster.
24:34No, it's me.
24:35I'm the adjuster.
24:36I'm the adjuster.
24:37I'm the adjuster.
24:38Go.
24:39Now.
24:40Get him.
24:41Let's go.
24:42He's getting away.
24:43Get him.
24:44He's getting away.
24:45He's getting away.
24:46He's over there.
24:47He's over there.
24:48My name's Bill.
24:49Don't let him go.
24:50Don't let him go.
24:51Don't let him go.
24:52Don't let him go.
24:54He's getting away.
24:55Don't let him go.
24:56Don't let him go.
24:57Don't let him go.
24:58Don't let him go.
24:59There.
25:00Don't let him go.
25:01Get him.
25:03Get him.
25:04Get him.
25:05Get him.
25:06Not so clever after all.
25:09Hey, man.
25:27Hey, you cool?
25:29Can you use the jacket?
25:33Hang right there.
25:36God bless you.
25:39Take 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.
26:09I wish someone didn't have to die to make them listen.
26:27I 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?
26:41I 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.
26:47Have a good night.
26:51The healthcare system has failed the people, and it needs to be taken down.
26:57This won't bring Amelia back.
27:14But it will save millions.
27:16I'm not a monster.
27:29Accountability is part of the plan.
27:39Have a good one.
27:40And I'm almost ready to take it.
27:43I'm almost ready to take it.
28:10I can't run forever.
28:20One last thing to check off the list.
28:26Let me get a McCrazy with Oreo space.
28:30It's fire.
28:32Can I have a bite?
28:33What?
28:34You want a bite?
28:35Yeah.
28:37If you pay for your own, I guess, sure.
28:39Maybe I'll get a shirt.
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, come 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.
29:47No 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?
30:06Matteo Leone is a cold-blooded killer who 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.
30:21Not guilty.
30:27Answer me, you shit-eating cockroach!
30:32Or should I pull the teeth out from your pretty little smile?
30:37Don't you realize you're going to get the death penalty?
30:39Don't you realize nobody's free until everybody's free?
30:47Let him go, Chief!
30:49Let him go!
30:52Can't let this sad sack have all the fun.
31:00You think you're a hero.
31:03You're a terrorist.
31:04And I won't rest until you're on death row.
31:08And you're afraid of me because you can't stop what I started.
31:13You're losing control, Mayor Campbell.
31:15Was that what you think?
31:17Well, 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.
31:42We're fighting game.
31:46You're going down.
31:52Great use of resources, guys.
31:53No talking.
31:54The system is designed to 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.
32:33Powerless.
32:34Stupid.
32:35Pathetic.
32:36You're no...
32:37Back off.
32:39Let the court decide.
32:40Innocent is unproven guilty.
32:42Innocent is unproven guilty.
32:44Innocent is unproven guilty.
32:47Innocent is unproven guilty.
32:48It's completely unjust.
32:50It's an insult to the intelligence of 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, but they can't keep you from rotting in jail.
33:04Come on.
33:06Hear me.
33:08See you in court.
33:09Innocent is unproven guilty.
33:12Innocent is unproven guilty.
33:14Innocent is unproven guilty.
33:15No one can protect you in here.
33:22Let's see how long you last.
33:24Maybe I deserve everything that's coming to me.
33:34What's your 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.
33:46Now, what's your fucking name, boy?
33:51Matteo.
33:52Leone.
33:53Oh, shit.
33:58You to your jester.
34:05Dixon.
34:06You see the brothers in here, they're 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.
34:16Cleanest man.
34:18Take a sit, bro.
34:18The 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.
35:00The United States versus Matteo Leone, also known as the adjuster.
35:05You saw the wanted posters.
35:07Corrupt CEOs' time is running out.
35:10You crusty plebeians could never get past security.
35:14Oh, yeah?
35:14You sure about that?
35:15It's called survival of the fizz.
35:19The vibes are giving pressure cooker.
35:21Better, better.
35:27Better, better.
35:32Woo!
35:45Woo!
35:46The people are waking up.
35:55Enjoy 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 see about that?
36:06Talk to my client again, and I'll have to be disbarred.
36:09I'll see you in court.
36:10All right, honey.
36:16Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, Matteo Leone viciously targeted Randall Thornwald.
36:42Rather than grieve with dignity, when his sister died of cancer,
36:45he 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.
37:11He could have saved his sister, but he was too broke to pay.
37:15He had motive.
37:17He 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.
37:27He thought he was so smart with all his messages.
37:30Missileone is entitled, manipulative, and frankly, psychotic.
37:36Thank you, Mayor Camden.
37:41For my final witness, I call Brady Thornwald, Randall Thornwald's son.
37:46Brady, how has the death of your father, your hero, affected you?
38:08Will this kid be the nail in my coffin?
38:09My father's not my hero.
38:19Uh, you mean?
38:22I mean, I was incredibly devastated when that cold-blooded killer took my father's life away from me.
38:35You know what? Fuck that.
38:39My dad enjoyed hurting people.
38:41His entire vision as CEO was built on keeping people sick.
38:46And I'm not just going to sit here and lie because some company paid me to.
38:49You disrespect your own father.
38:51After everything he did for you?
38:53You know what? Lock me up.
38:54I don't care.
38:56Objection. He can't just...
38:57I mean, sit down.
38:58You're nothing lower than suing sludge.
39:00Mr. Mayor, first, you treat him like some kind of sue event.
39:05Order!
39:10Mayor Camden, one more word and you'll be held in contempt.
39:15Yay.
39:16No further questions.
39:19Based on the evidence provided,
39:23Matteo Leone undoubtedly is guilty of murder in the first degree.
39:26Prosecution rests.
39:30Ms. Weinhardt?
39:35Judge will shine.
39:36People to jury.
39:38As the prosecution detailed,
39:41my client, Matteo Leone,
39:43shot and killed the CEO of DB Health.
39:48Randall Thornwall, dead.
39:50Someone had to do it.
39:58That's right.
39:59My client does not deny killing Mr. Thornwall.
40:02What he does deny,
40:04it was unwarranted.
40:06Mr. Leone had to act drastically
40:08to save lives.
40:10And 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.
40:49Clay and I, we just found out that
40:51we were going to be grandparents.
40:53Then one night,
40:57Clay had a heart attack.
41:00A doctor prescribed a treatment plan,
41:03but DB Health said no,
41:04not medically necessary.
41:06It would cost hundreds of thousands out of pocket.
41:09So we appealed,
41:10but all of our claims were denied.
41:13I was denied a walking boot
41:15from my fractured ankle.
41:16It got so bad they had to amputate,
41:18but they couldn't
41:19because they don't make prosthetics.
41:20I got addicted to pain medication,
41:22but denied a surgery
41:24to cure my pain for good.
41:26We went bankrupt,
41:27and now we're homeless.
41:28She 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,
41:50Mateo,
41:50saw how so many of us
41:52were being taken advantage of
41:54by DB Health's predatory business.
41:57And he did what no one else
42:00had the courage
42:01or actually the balls to do.
42:04He stood up.
42:10I couldn't have said it any better.
42:14Your 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,
42:47I swear to tell the truth.
42:53Mr. Leoti,
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.
43:11Oh, objection!
43:12This is new evidence
43:13not found in...
43:13Sit down, Counselor.
43:16Go ahead.
43:17Go 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.
43:40And it's been the two of us
43:42against the world ever since.
43:44The doctor said
43:45she could beat leukemia
43:46if she started treatment
43:47right away.
43:49But DB Health
43:50wouldn't cover it.
43:52Even with a decent job,
43:53I couldn't afford
43:54to pay out of pocket.
43:56So I appealed.
43:57I was optimistic.
43:59I didn't know
44:00that there are almost
44:01200,000 health insurance
44:03related deaths per year.
44:05As we waited for a response,
44:07I watched my amazing
44:08little sister get sicker.
44:11And then DB Health
44:13denied her appeal.
44:14I did everything
44:17I could to fight back.
44:19I even pleaded
44:20with the CEO himself
44:22to save her life.
44:25He told me
44:26it was nothing personal.
44:28It's just the business
44:29of keeping people sick.
44:31And then he smiled.
44:38Amelia died.
44:41And I found out
44:42our story is
44:43very,
44:44very common.
44:48Talking mass corruption
44:50leading to massive amounts
44:52of lives ruined.
44:53Hundreds of thousands
44:54of lives ruined.
44:56All to fill their pockets.
44:58But we're bigger than them.
45:02All right?
45:02We're bigger than them.
45:03If we stand up together,
45:06who's with me?
45:07Who's with me?
45:07The defense rests.
45:25Nothing more to do
45:26but wait.
45:28After thorough consideration,
45:30Purple Cross Health
45:30will discontinue
45:31our limited anesthesia policy.
45:33Our company
45:34will end its
45:35wait-and-see policy
45:36beginning at the first
45:37of the month.
45:38We'll be halting
45:39our lottery policy
45:40effectively.
45:40Whatever happens today,
45:42you did this.
45:50We the jury
45:51find Matteo Leone.
45:54Dear Tracy,
45:55your letter made me tear up.
45:57I am so sorry
45:58you and your daughter
45:59had to go through
45:59such senseless pain.
46:01No one should have to
46:02experience that kind
46:02of systemic failure.
46:04You are an inspiration
46:05and your daughter
46:06is lucky to have a mother
46:07who didn't back down.
46:09All my best,
46:10Matteo Leone.
46:21Death or life in prison.
46:24At least I said my piece.
46:25My line as a person
46:30is by...
46:31not only
46:31not only
46:32they did
46:32to look for
46:33family...
46:33But she couldn't
46:33tell me
46:34what she didn't
46:34die from
46:49the miejston
