Did you really find a million dollars in the trunk of a car

- and then turn it in? Did you do that? - Yeah.

You did that for real, huh?

My man. Good for you. Shit.

You know Johnny Law got, though, right?

- Maybe. - Ain't no maybe about it, Mr. Richie.

You know he got it. You turned that money in,

he took it and you ain't get nothing for it. Did you?

Why did you do that?

- It was the right thing to do. - That's true.

That's a good answer. It was the right thing to do.

The question I have, the question I've been asking myself is,

would you do it again?

I mean, that's a lot of money, that's a long time ago.

Many car payments ago, many child support payments ago.

So I said to myself, the onlyest way to find out is to find out.

Bribery, extortion, murder, racketeering...

Now, you give me an address,

I'll make sure the car's there, I'll make sure that money's in that trunk.

No, thanks.

You sure?

Come on, now, Richie. What do you think, that impresses me?

You think that you're better than them? You ain't no better than them other cops.

In fact, you're the same as them. You are them.

Let me ask you this.

Do you really think that putting me behind bars

is going to change anything on them streets?

Them dope fiends is gonna shoot it,

they're gonna steal for it, they're gonna die for it.

Putting me in or out ain't gonna change one thing.

Then that's the way it is.

That's just the way it is. So what we got, Richie?

We got me and you sitting here.

We got that little snitch-ass driver for my brother.

You got a little bit of powder.

You're going to need more than that, Richie.

I got possession, supply, conspiracy,

bribing a law officer. I got people who'll attest to seeing you kill in cold blood.

I got your offshore bank accounts, your real estate, your businesses,

all bought with money from heroin.

And I got hundreds of parents of dead kids.

Addicts who OD'ed on your product. And that's my story for the jury.

And that's how I make it all stick. "This man murdered thousands of people.

"And he did it from a penthouse, driving a Lincoln."

Aside from that, you got nothing to worry about.

That's pretty good. But that's why we go to court, isn't it, Richie?

'Cause I got witnesses, too.

I got celebrities. I got sports figures. I got Harlem, Richie.

I took care of Harlem, so Harlem's gonna take care of me. You can believe that.
