The facts, as reported by the two narcotic detectives, just don't seem to add up. As she struggles to find the truth, the ramifications of a single lie reverberate throughout the whole precinct. Soon she finds she can't trust anyone, including the precinct captain (Martin Sheen). In this gritty crime thriller that could be ripped from today's headlines, it's cop vs. cop in a deadly fight for honor.

He is one of my most effective people

and he is a decorated officer.

- They shot a little kid down

in the middle of an apartment complex, Daniel.

- They shot an intruder down

who shot at the police.

Maybe you are right.

But that does not change the fact that an

white cop killed a black boy

without the slightest warning.

The press will have a beautiful day with this,

I must remind you that?

I sit on a winnable place here.

it is clear to me.

When all hell breaks loose and I

promise you that it will happen

I'm not the one going to fool.

Count your once good at this. I would

find annoying when you are sucked.

With respect, in connection

your upcoming retirement.

How long do you have, six months?

- Yes.

What do you say, Aaron?

- I'll tell you how things stand.

Ok ?, there is anything else?

That's all for now.

Ok ?.

Thank you, Captain.

- Thank you.

Let the Morel files

bring inside, please.

Bianca.

Ms. Rivera?

I'm Agent Jones.

- May I now take my son?

Madam, Ramon was found

with a gun in his possession

when he died.

Therefore fired the agent.

What? What are you talking about,

that is not possible.

Ma'am, I understand

that this is not easy.

But I can assure you that very

capable people working on this.

Very capable?

As the one who fired at ...

I want my son.

A good student, no notes,

no contacts with gangs

No suspension from school and shoot from

close to an agent in the middle of the night.

Do you think that's strange, detective?

I do not have enough facts to an opinion

about having this matter, sir.

Why do I ask a novice detective

without any experience in internal affairs of

to conduct this research?

Sir, I can not answer.

You testified against your partner, right?

- Yes, sir.

He was found not guilty

if I remember correctly.

You were however transferred

with administrative tasks.

You are a muggenzifter,

a danger to anyone.

There is no executive who you

ever give a promotion.

Why they chose you?

Because internal affairs is everything

you have left.

So they just shot him down?

- Yes.

Why?

- I do not know why.

That boy was just standing there

and the cop shot him just down.

How often do I have to have to explain?

Does he know you've seen him?

- I do not know.

Perhaps, yes.

- Then they'll find you.

Do you think I know that?

- My God, Jacob

We have to leave here.

- And where can we go?

I do not know. I have a cousin in Virginia,

maybe we can go to her,

Virginia?

What are we doing in Virginia?

Minimum wage, work,

The ends meet.

No, we do not.

- Look how we live now.

You said that the last transaction

would be, and then no more.

You promised.

- It does not all go as planned, right?

Let's forget it and just leave.

No food, no money for the rent, nothing.

- Find a job.

Stop whining.

Jesus, I rule it.

Mom?

I could see you tomorrow even.

I do not think so.

The only thing I ask is

I just missed you.

Please, do not.

So just give me my share
