SCRIPT 566 OF 686

============================================================

Yo, that's straight bullshit. That's completely outta pocket, word up. Sitting there with his legal representation, this 68-year-old shield Louis Scarcella kept telling Brooklyn Supreme Court the same thing - he ain't got perfect memory about every single piece from a case that went down twenty years back. You got memory of the trip from that homicide scene? Nah, that ain't in my head no more. Nelson Cruz already put in 21 years behind bars for that body. His legal team screaming that the real triggerman whispered to Scarcella that Cruz was the one, and they saying Scarcella put up a witness, this cat Andre Belinger, who ain't even lay eyes on the murder going down. You ever run your mouth to Andre Belinger saying Nelson Cruz was the one who caught this body? Never did that. Inside the courtroom, Derek Hamilton, one of eight bodies whose murder convictions got thrown in the trash. A judge ruled he got pressured by Scarcella into giving up that confession. Every single one of us connected to Scarcella's work. We see through your lies, yo. Nelson Cruz gotta walk free. Cruz's wifey Erica handles legal cases. She's representing the law. And she's moving like a lawyer. And that's her profession. Today marks his born day. He just hit 38. Facts. So that's 20 born days locked away. 20 born days. That's that's what stays on your mind. What came up in today's proceedings was Scarcella's 2007 spot on the Doctor Phil show, breaking down the head games behind fake confessions. Is there regulations when it comes to working cases? I believe it's beneficial that they ain't extracting no confession. I made it clear there weren't no regulations but I moved within legal boundaries. Today he claimed he closed cases on approximately 160 murders throughout his time with the shield. You backing every single investigation you worked on? 110 percent without question. This proceeding gonna decide if Nelson Cruz can touch freedom. Scarcella's one of roughly a dozen witnesses giving testimony, proceedings still rolling.
