Why did he change representation? I handled him on an assault charge. That's my area, not Burton's. Did Stouffer express dissatisfaction with Mr Burton? Not at all. Burton's an excellent lawyer. Are you going after him? - We're not going after anyone. - Do you know David Crebbs? We're reviewing certain accusations to determine if they're true - and to clean our own house. So please do not overdramatize this. It's not the McCarthy hearings. Oh, that's a relief. So you're not gonna ask me: "Are you now or have you ever been a lawyer?" - That wasn't amusing, Mr Kirkland. - Do you know David Crebbs? No, it wasn't, Miss...? Packer. This isn't amusing. It is ridiculous. Yes, I know David Crebbs. Have you ever seen... Is this mike working? - Do you know David Crebbs? - Why are we using microphones? - Why don't we just talk to each other? - This is a hearing, Mr Kirkland. Yes. It's a hearing. - Do you know Jules Stouffer? - We've already asked that. Are we through with Stouffer? How about Alvin Burton? - Do you know David Crebbs? - I've already asked that. - What did he say? - He said yes. Have you ever seen him intoxicated in court? David Crebbs has a speech impediment. Check your records. It's in there. As answer to your question: No, he doesn't drink. Not at all. At this point I would just like to say - - that what this committee is doing in theory is highly commendable. However, in practice it sucks. And I am not going to answer any more questions. What do you think we're trying to do in there? - Want a drink? - No. Whatever you may think, we're not conducting some kind of witch-hunt. What are you doing then? You might not be aware ofthis, - - but there's a lot of corruption that nobody's doing anything about. - Do you think you're doing something? - Yes, I do. That committee is a very dangerous farce. Whoa, Mr Kirkland. I spend fourteen hours a day on that committee. I don't do it to get a few good laughs. You could spend the rest ofyour life. You'll wind up a cop. Maybe ruining the careers of a few guys who wiped their ass the wrong way. Other than that, nothing. So what do you think? About what? About me. What do you think? Think I'm kind of interesting? Somebody you'd like to have a drink with? I think that you're crazy. What about Daniel's? Say, around seven thirty? I don't think so. Eight? Eight thirty. All right. I'm Arthur Kirkland. You wanted to see me? Yeah. My man, Bambi, he recommended you real highly. He said, Arthur Kirkland was the man to see. Okay, Ralph, tell me what happened. It says here you were involved in a robbery. No, sir. What happened is, it was time to come down on a nigger. It's like smoking. They've got to have a nigger every twenty minutes. What happened is... I was in an alley, petting my dog, when they came down on me. It states here the dog was attacking you - when you were seen in the alley. Well, my dog, he gets like that. It also states that the dog belonged to a Mrs B. Jackson. He sure looked like my dog. He had that little... It also states that when asked what you were doing you replied: "I don't know nothing about that taxi cab." That's true. I don't. - How did you knowthere was one? - Mr Kirkland, there's always one. Ralph, tell me the truth or get another lawyer. I don't need the bullshit. Okay. I was in that cab, but I didn't rob it. It was my cousin's idea. I didn't know nothing. He's crazy. - What's your cousin's name? - I don't know. I mean... - He lives over on Hillsdale. - You don't know your cousin's name? Who do you think you're talking to? Do you think I'm an idiot? I read a report, I can tell if somebody's bullshitting me. Give me straight answers or get another lawyer. I don't have time to listen to some jive-ass put-me-on. Okay. It wasn't my idea, but I did knowwhat was coming down. See me and my cousin Royce... Royce Shavers.
