1:10:02
...into the cesspool of official
and near-official corruption.
1:10:05
Yeah, I'm shaking like a leaf.
1:10:08
"This very afternoon, I was approached
with a sugarcoated proposition...
1:10:11
...a bribe offered me
by this corrupt officialdom.
1:10:14
$ 100,000 for the building and equipment
of a recreation center in my parish...
1:10:18
...if I would agree to refrain
from further attacks...
1:10:21
...if I would sabotage this campaign...
1:10:24
...if I would shut my eyes, stop my ears
and hold my tongue.
1:10:28
But the building of an isolated playground
to shield my boys from crime...
1:10:31
...is not rooting out the crime itself.
1:10:33
We must rid ourselves
of the criminal parasites that feed on us.
1:10:37
We must wipe out those
we have ignorantly elected...
1:10:39
...and those who manipulate this
diseased officialdom behind locked doors.
1:10:43
Tonight, we have in our power
to ask definitely...
1:10:46
...incriminating questions
of these officials.
1:10:49
And the power to demand
satisfactory answers.
1:10:52
What really is the truth in the case of
the racketeer and gunman Rocky Sullivan?
1:10:57
Why did the police release him so suddenly
with all the evidence they had against him?
1:11:01
Why did the notorious Mac Keefer
pay Sullivan $ 100,000 in cash...
1:11:05
...and what political sword does he hold
over the trembling hands...
1:11:08
...of district attorneys, judges
and police officials?
1:11:11
But tomorrow, the new grand jury will meet,
and these questions must be answered.
1:11:15
Therefore, I ask all of you
who are listening in... "
1:11:18
And you thought you could
buy him off?
1:11:20
- I told you you were wasting your time.
- We ain't wasting any more time.
1:11:23
That was that guy's last chance.
1:11:25
We're gonna take care of him tonight.
1:11:27
You're talking through your hat.
You can't bump off a priest.
1:11:30
Forget it.
1:11:31
I'll forget it. Tomorrow morning,
when he's floating down the river.
1:11:34
Now, get this straight, Sullivan.
1:11:36
Even if he is an old pal of yours,
I'm still running the works.
1:11:40
I'm not taking orders from you
all of a sudden.
1:11:42
He's not gonna appear
at no grand jury tomorrow.
1:11:45
Shooting off his mouth...
I say he gets it tonight.
1:11:50
- Not if I'm around.
- Now, wait a minute, gentlemen.
1:11:53
There's no sense in running
too far ahead of ourselves.
1:11:55
Don't forget, there are all kinds
of grand juries...
1:11:58
...and there's all kinds of ways
of handling them.
