Quotes1

  • Judge Deidre Hellstrom: Mr. Jacobs, this negotiated arrangement with the People is something I find contrary to the interests of justice. A child taken by you against her will, returned by you to her lawful custodian in exchange for your freedom is an agreement against public policy. Therefore, I find that mandating enforcement of an agreement reached under these circumstances would be a perversion, not a fulfillment, of jurisprudence. I will not honor it. Your sentence is my discretion, Mr. Jacobs. I'm imposing the maximum time allowed by law.
  • Margot Bell: Your honor, my client withdraws his guilty plea.
  • Judge Deidre Hellstrom: That's certainly his right. He wants a trial, we'll conference tomorrow afternoon to set a date.
  • Dwight Jacobs: What are you talking about? We had a deal! You can't do this.
  • Judge Deidre Hellstrom: You had no deal with me, Mr. Jacobs.
  • Dwight Jacobs: What? No, no, no, no. We had a deal!
  • [charges at McCoy]
  • Dwight Jacobs: We had a deal, you son of a bitch!
  • Judge Deidre Hellstrom: That's enough! Officers, remove the defendant from the courtroom!
  • Dwight Jacobs: [to McCoy as he's taken out of the courtroom] You made a deal, you son of a bitch! Son of a bitch! We had a deal! We had a deal!
