Thanks for coming.
Tell me.
This is what was submitted as evidence.
Look at the time.
And this…
is the original video
from Transit Control.
Look at the time.
Zavala?
He said
he was at his house the whole night.
And he left at 3:03.
Eighteen minutes after Mandujano died.
It's taped over.
They took the original image
and overlapped it
with an image from a different day
and it made it look
like Zavala wasn't there.
Aside from me,
the only person
who had access to the evidence
is Durán.
He admitted the video.
Durán has been with the squad
for 13 years.
I know.
He's my colleague.
That's why I want to know.
Do you know what happens when you raise
suspicions about a colleague?
I know.
We have to arrest Zavala
and confront Durán with the evidence.
He's going to deny it.
We need proof.
What are you thinking of?
Give me a few days.
Meanwhile, the less he knows, the better.
Three days.
Not a minute more.
And don't forget
that Zavala is the enemy here.
I ATTACHED THE PHOTOS
TONIGHT AT MY HOUSE, 9 P.M.?
This new police case
has caused a big commotion,
where Tomás Ruiz…
Never before in Chile's history,
has a person
with Down syndrome been charged
for a crime of this magnitude.
Stop! Police!
…a 48-year-old employee
had a b*llet wound in his chest cavity.
Put your hands up!
Objection, Your Honor.
The defense is making arguments
that are used for
children and adolescents.
Tomás is 26 years old.
Mom!
Tommy is nice, cool and very happy.
-I miss you a lot.
-Me too.
Mama!
Ms. Cristina Pérez Lombardi.
-Hello.
-Hi, Doctor.
-How are you? Nervous?
-No.
You need to be relaxed.
The procedure is short,
and it won't hurt at all.
I've been here before
though they've never put this on before.
Can we talk for a minute, Doctor?
She doesn't know.
She signed the consent.
Did she know what she was signing?
Look, Doctor.
With all due respect,
this has been very difficult,
very complicated.
I'm asking you
to please not make it more difficult.
I'm going to have her taken to the ward.
In the meantime, talk to her.
She has a right to know
exactly what we're going to do.
No, leave her.
No.
What's wrong?
-We're going, dear.
-But why?
Trust me, Christi.
Relax, dear.
I'll help you.
Why do you want to be a mom, Christi?
I want to take care of my baby.
Do you know
what it means to take care of a baby?
You'll have to change their diaper,
make them food,
take them to kindergarten
and then to school when they're bigger.
Help them with homework
and work hard your whole life
to be able to buy them what they need.
Tommy and I could do it together.
No, Christi.
You most likely
can't have kids with Tommy.
Why not?
Because men with Down syndrome
are usually infertile.
They can't get a woman pregnant.
I've seen videos
of women with Down Syndrome who have kids.
Many of the women that became mothers…
it was because…
they were victims of sexual abuse.
Not with their consent.
If you want to
have a sexual relationship with…
Tommy
or whoever you choose,
you need to take care of yourself,
you both need to take care.
And it has to be
a respectful relationship.
Both sides have to want it.
Mom.
Will I ever have a family?
Like you, Dad and I?
I don't know, dear.
I don't know.
-Hello.
-Hi.
I thought I'd see you at work.
You always cut to the chase.
Damn it.
What's wrong?
I'm out of condoms.
I have some in my car.
No, I'll go.
Where are the keys?
Are you sure?
Do you want to get dressed?
They're in my jacket.
There wasn't any.
What?
You don't have any condoms.
How is that?
I don't know.
Maybe you used them all.
Damn. I was sure I had some.
What if I pull out?
No way.
Are you seeing someone?
No.
Your ex?
No.
It's the same as usual with her.
Bruno, school, birthdays…
I'm not jealous.
I'm just asking for hygienic reasons.
I'm not seeing anyone.
Great.
Mariana.
There's more evidence against Zavala.
An informant called me
and it could be key in incriminating him.
Which informant?
He wants to be anonymous
but he works in the factory.
It seems he participated in the robberies.
I want to get his statement tomorrow.
Can you come with me?
Come pick me up.
I think it's best if you leave.
Durán.
Next time, buy condoms.
Damn.
What?
The informant changed his mind.
Why?
He says he's scared of retaliation
against his family.
God dammit.
-Subcommissioner, your coffee.
-Thanks.
I'm not going.
If you're not going, neither am I.
Then we're not going.
Come on, for Bruno.
Mom is going to be upset
we're not going to her birthday.
And I'm the one who has to…
It's my job, I can't risk it.
Don't pretend you're a saint, I know you.
I can't use my time or my informants
to help your undertakings.
Alright.
-What do you know about real estate?
-I know enough.
Why don't you
get some training or something?
I don't have money, man.
That's why I'm asking you.
-Can you lend me some?
-No.
If you knew how broke I was,
you wouldn't ask.
Between Claudia and Bruno…
Don't forget that you owe me…
Don't forget to bundle him up
and get there early.
I got it.
I'm reminding you because you forget.
I know, Claudia.
The brown sweater, not the blue one.
I got it.
Okay.
Do you need me
to send you a message to remind you?
No.
Are you going to the hearing?
Yes.
I'll see you there.
The court has asked for a testimony
from an expert criminal psychologist,
Lucía Pardo.
I've asked her to review the reports
both from the DA and defense.
Anything new?
Doctor, please.
Nothing yet.
My team and I conducted a meta-analysis
that consists of an evaluation
of the methods used in the reports
to reach their conclusions.
The DA and the defense
both conducted
three expert interviews of the accused,
in addition to,
a series of neuropsychological tests,
which included
the Rorschach test, the WAIS
and specific tests
targeting frontal brain functioning.
Since the results are very similar,
it should be noted, that
the defense combined these tests
as a type of psychological test
which he's looking to give
a social-behavior dimension
to the individual.
Also an extensive report
about Down syndrome
that attempts to shed light on the
behavior of people with this condition.
This last study submitted by the defense
includes an analysis,
the numbers are clear.
Mr. Tomás Ruiz,
possesses an IQ of around 70,
which means, according to
existing precedent in this country,
his mental faculty is suitable
to be charged for what he's accused of.
Thanks, Doctor.
Any last interventions?
We are requesting authorization
to ask the defendant some questions.
Yes, go ahead.
Tomás.
How do you feel?
Good.
Good.
Is there anything
that you've missed during this time?
My brother.
Christi.
Who is she? Your friend?
My girlfriend.
We're going to get married.
Even though you pleaded guilty?
-Your Honor.
-I apologize.
I'll rephrase the question, Your Honor.
Tomás,
you don't mind
having a long distance relationship
with Christina?
She'll wait for me.
She wants
to be with me.
He's in love.
Tomás.
Do you miss your friends
from the Foundation?
Yes.
Your Honor, there are people
who would like to be present
but they couldn't enter.
May I let them in?
-Go ahead.
-Thank you.
What's going on?
A trick.
Are you happy to see your friends?
This is my last question.
Do you believe
that people with Down syndrome
should receive the same treatment
as everyone else?
Yes.
Your Honor, it's not easy
for anyone to make a decision like this,
but our job is to make
the principles of justice prevail,
those that rule over us equally.
Even though the reports show
that Tomás's judgement is intact,
which allows him to distinguish
an illicit act from a licit one,
the defense insists on asking for an
exemption of criminal responsibility.
Let's see what the law says about
the exemption of criminal responsibility.
PENAL CODE
"Someone who is crazy or insane
is exempt from criminal responsibility
and those who,
for whatever reason free of will,
are totally lacking reason."
I ask myself this
could we consider
people with Down syndrome as crazy people?
-Or insane?
-No.
Could we believe that Tomás,
with the intelligence and abilities
we've determined up until now,
could he be seen as
totally lacking reason at any moment?
We firmly believe not, Your Honor.
We can't attribute insanity
or dementia to Tomás.
You can see that at a simple glance.
And it's also been shown here
in the multiple evaluations
realized by experts.
You Honor, the DA considers
that Tomás maintains his mental faculties
and he was aware of what he was doing
in the moment of executing the act.
For that reason,
we request him to be declared as imputable
and as a result,
criminally responsible for his acts.
Thank you, Your Honor.
Everything will be fine, my dear.
Defense?
Thank you, Your Honor.
Without a doubt, Tommy's case
puts us,
as a society, in an unknown place.
It's pushed us to reconsider
how we understand our discipline.
Should we view the law
solely as something that checks
whether the conditions
written in the laws were met?
Or should we view it as a flexible tool
that adapts to new realities
and that searches
for the well-being of our citizens?
Obviously, the DA's intent is to
emotionally manipulate this court
and make it give a simple and clear answer
to a complex and indeterminate problem.
No, sir.
I don't think Tomás is crazy or insane.
But I also don't believe
that the evaluation tools used
are sufficient to declare him imputable.
We need
a multidimensional review of the subject
that doesn't just measure his IQ,
but that also considers
his environment, his background,
and his trisomy.
I hope the court is able to
consider these dimensions
and treats Tomás justly and humanely,
which is what we all are hoping for.
The defense confirms
its request to declare Tomás Ruiz
as unimputable
and that this case be dismissed
and closed immediately.
Fine.
Having reviewed the evidence
and both arguments meticulously,
I've reached the following conclusion.
This court
declares Tomás Ruiz
as a competent person.
He is someone with
sufficient mental ability
to face a judicial process
and able to take criminal responsibility.
This has been a difficult decision for me.
But if we want a more just society,
where people with disabilities
are truly considered as subjects of law,
we should treat them equally,
when they do good and when they do wrong.
I hope that the DA
understands that
this is a special case
and that Mr. Tomás Ruiz
should receive reasonable treatment.
Yes, Your Honor.
The defendant is declared as imputable.
Has the DA decided
what the charges will be?
Yes, Your Honor.
-Homicide.
-Very well.
We will meet again in 60 days
at a hearing
to finalize this investigation.
In the meantime,
the defendant
can't continue to live where he has been
and he will be transferred to prison
with special supervision for him.
It's done.
No, it's not done.
We have to confront Durán.
What are you doing here?
Trying to save my brother.
I told you you can't show up here.
You're not doing anything, as*h*le.
How can Tommy end up in jail?
I told you it wasn't easy.
The judge pulled a number
that was unexpected.
I need to leave Chile.
-What?
-Argentina, Peru… As fast as possible.
No.
You're mistaken.
I don't do that work anymore.
Not anymore.
Virgin Mary,
I promise this is the last time.
You know this will be the last time,
Virgin Mary.
If they catch you in Argentina,
they won't extradite you.
Those jerks don't trust Chilean justice.
Cajón del Maipo,
the Lo Valdés area.
There's a shepherd who knows the area
like the back of his hand.
When you're close…
call him.
There.
This is my half
and give him the other half.
What?
This is my half
and you give him the other half.
Or you can take it back and we stop here.
How do I know you're not lying?
You don't know.
Double the amount?
If your partner fails me
I'll be back for you.
And you know I keep my word.
What's wrong?
I heard about the hearing.
It's unfortunate.
So? Will you tell me what's wrong?
Original video from Transit Control.
Ariel Zavala, Coya,
arriving at the factory
the same night that Mandujano died.
The video admitted as evidence...
by you.
There's no car and no Coya.
It's at the same time, by the way.
I don't understand.
We also don't understand.
-I've been working here for 13…
-Don't play the victim.
Excuse me?
Did you manipulate the evidence
in the Mandujano case?
How can you think that?
Are you linked to Ariel Zavala? Yes or no?
Of course not!
Calm down!
I need a valid explanation for this.
Internal investigations
are looking into it
so if you have something to say,
say it now.
Evidence.
What?
Evidence.
All of Transit Control's material
goes to Evidence first
and then they give it to us.
They're the only ones
who accessed the material except for me.
Why would they do something like that?
I don't know. Ask them.
I'm not capable
of doing something like this.
I'm hopeless with technology.
I have no clue about editing.
You know that.
You could have asked for help.
My things are at your disposal.
You can go through them.
Do whatever you want.
I'm just asking you to do the same
with the staff from Evidence.
Whose computer was it?
DETECTIVE F. SALDIVIA
MANAGER OF EVIDENCE
Hey.
I'm sorry.
I should have asked you directly.
I f*cked up.
August 6.
The same night Orlando Mandujano died.
You said you were at home.
And here you are
a 00:34 entering the factory.
Any explanation?
I want my lawyer.
Do you have any relation
with Agent Saldivia?
Lawyer.
Or could you tell us about Ramón Kowalski,
an employee at your factory
who mysteriously disappeared
the same day Mandujano died.
Lawyer.
Saldivia or Kowalski.
Sooner or later, one of those jerks
will talk and you're f*cked.
We'll start with obstruction of justice.
Three years and a day.
Tell that to your lawyer.
My mom said
I won't be able to have kids with you
and that
we won't be able to have a family.
Why not?
Because men
with Down syndrome are infertile.
Infertile?
They can't have kids.
A family can have two people.
No Tommy. It needs to have a child.
Those are the rules.
When are they transferring you?
Tomorrow.
My mom said I won't be able to visit you.
Because there's bad people?
We won't see each other for a long time.
Where's Amanda?
She's in the car.
Tell her to come.
She wants you to go get her.
Hello, Laura.
Hello, Mariana.
Hi, sweetie.
-Hi, Mom.
-What's wrong?
Let's go.
Your things.
Say goodbye to your Dad.
Amanda.
Come on.
I want to go with him.
Sweetie.
Come here.
Dad is going far.
He's going to a different city
that's ten hours from here.
Why don't we go inside
and order that pizza you like?
We could watch a movie.
You could invite a friend over.
Alright?
Come on.
-Come on, Amanda.
-Mariana!
I want to go live with them.
PROCEEDINGS INTO A COP THAT TOOK
HER DAUGHTER TO A POLICE OPERATION
During years…
I tried…
to understand…
why Mom abandoned us…
why she just left one day.
And I was furious at her.
I hated her.
I judged her.
But now I realize
that I'm doing the same thing with Amanda.
No.
No, Mariana.
You made a mistake.
-We all make mistakes.
-No.
It wasn't a mistake, Dad.
It wasn't a mistake.
I closed my eyes. I stopped seeing.
I stopped seeing her and hearing her.
And now it's catching up to me, Dad.
I didn't see her for a week.
And today it was my turn.
But she preferred to go to Valdivia
with her Dad.
Yes, but
it's temporary.
You said they were going to see a house.
I wish it was temporary.
No, it's not temporary.
No, I think that Amanda…
is protecting herself from abandonment,
from my abandonment.
You were always
a very solitary girl
and stubborn with your ideas.
You would get obsessed with something
and you wouldn't let up.
But you were very special to me.
And to your mom too.
And the only thing I regret…
is not hugging you more.
When she left,
you turned into…
a cactus you couldn't touch.
And I gave up.
I gave in.
But don't give up.
I know it will be a difficult road
but you're smart
and you'll know how to do it.
Not like me…
who didn't know to hug you.
Get dressed and put on your shoes.
Right now.
Help me.
Help!
Alright.
Come.
Tommy,
listen to me well.
On the other side of the door,
your brother is waiting.
I'm only doing this
because I want the best for you.
Go on.
Come.
How are you?
Thanks, Paty.
-Take care.
-Yeah.
Let's go.
Good.
I couldn't let them put you in jail.
The only thing left is to run.
To where?
Far, brother.
Where the pigs can't get us.
What about Christi?
She can't come with us.
I want to say goodbye.
That's not possible.
I want to say goodbye to Christi!
No. When they realize you're not there,
they'll look for you.
-Christi!
-Stop, man!
One minute
and we're going.
Okay?
Big discounts.
All sweaters are 20% off.
Pants, pullovers and shirts,
ten percent off
thanks to your More card.
-Can I go to the bathroom?
-Sure.
-Hello, Christi.
-Hello.
-How are you?
-Good.
Tommy came to say goodbye.
-You're going to jail?
-No.
I'm going somewhere else
so that they don't lock me up.
Where to?
Far.
Tommy, we have to go.
Can she come with us?
No, she can't come with us.
You're not doing what we talked about.
She has a family. She can't come.
I want to go with you.
No, you can't come with us.
-Let's go.
-No.
No!
Tommy, we really have to go.
-Let's go.
-No!
No!
Calm down, Tommy.
What's wrong, Christi?
What's wrong?
I want to go with my boyfriend.
Hello.
No.
I took the morning to run an errand.
What?
I'm on my way.
Tell them they can't go
until we get there.
sh*t.
Hello.
-Tommy escaped from the centre.
-What?
I don't know details. I'm on my way.
Okay, I'll be there in half an hour.
What's wrong?
Nothing, work stuff.
It was her.
f*cking b*tch.
She doesn't know about anything.
She won't be a problem.
I just got house arrest
and a monthly check in,
I'm accused of obstruction of justice.
I'm going to have to stop
operations for months.
And you're telling me she's not a problem?
She bought the Saldivia story.
And the Pole won't talk.
We're covered.
You're covered.
What about me?
She can't prove anything against you.
She proved I was there.
Something that never should have happened.
Anyway,
we'll find a way to take care of her.
Now, there's something more urgent.
Beckham has been missing for a month.
We haven't been able to find him.
But you're clever.
Especially, when you work for me.
If the pigs find him
and he talks,
we're all done.
All of us.
So find him.
And make him disappear.
