Jimmy Tricks The Court | Namaste | Better Call Saul

Is the person who robbed you present in the court today? Yes.

and could you point them out to the court please

there

Let the record show that the witness has identified the defendant, Mr. Sakey.

Thank you, Mr. Harkness.

Your witness, Mr. Goodman.

Thank you for coming in today, Mr. Harkness.

I just want to clarify a few things from your testimony, if that's okay

okay, So, you were working at the Sandia Mart the night of the 30th.

Is that correct?

Got in at noon, left at midnight.

That's a long day. Good for you.

Nothing wrong with a hard day's work.

So, you say a man came in and he reached across the counter

and, quote, He grabbed up the money from my register and run off.

Yeah. And there was no one else in the store?

Not at that time, no.

And since the camera system wasn't working at the time,

you're the only one who saw the perpetrator

Yeah. I guess so.

So, this person came in, and they bought something.

I think it was an Almond Joy.

And they bought an Almond Joy.

And when you rang them up,

that's when they snatched the cash from the register.

Sounds like it happened pretty fast,

but you say you got a good look at 'em, correct?

Yes. You must drink stronger coffee than I do 'cause after 11 hours on the job,

I can barely see straight.

And it was dark out.

He was the only guy that came in that night that wasn't made up like a bat

or a cat or whatever the hell those guys are.

And he was right up in my face. Right in your face

And according to your testimony,

you feel confident that you can identify this person.

That's what you're saying.

I can, absolutely.

It's him.

Your client.

Are you sure that's the person?

There's no doubt in your mind? Take your time.

I don't need time. That's him.

Now, would you be surprised to learn, Mr. Harkness,

that the person you just pointed to is not the defendant?

What? My client is in the back of the courtroom.

Mr. Sakey, would you please stand up?

Objection! The person you ID'ed is named Hollis Earley.

He's a bartender down in Belen.

He has a very good alibi for the night in question.

Your Honor, objection! Mr. Goodman!

Really? You didn't recognize him, either, Your Honor.

Alright, settle down, everybody. Settle. Settle.

Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, we're gonna call it a day.

I will have very specific instructions for you tomorrow.

As always, please refrain from discussing the case until then,

and I will see counsel in my chambers now.

Adjourned.
