I think you, too,
should attend.
There are 17 unsolved
homicides in Louisiana
that share some
similarities with this case.
And ten of them share
multiple common denominators.
All show marks
from being bound,
all young,
all working class.
One was a high school girl.
Two were waitresses.
Three had been runaways.
And four were prostitutes.
The FBI has an informational advantage
over Iberia Parish.
How do you like
Uh, it's interesting.
If you found the remains
of a black man
and he had no belt,
no laces in his boot,
what speculation
would you make about him?
Obviously he'd been in jail,
a parish, or city holding tank,
afraid he'd do harm to himself.
That's what I think.
Mud bugs,
as advertised.
This one
has your name on it.
Get out of here.
Hey, Dave, you ought
to get yourself some food.
It's free.
Thanks.
I've already eaten.
See that man
bird-dogging the blonde?
Twinky Hebert LeMoyne.
That's the other half
of my security service business.
What's he doing here?
He's an investor
in the movie
and trying to get laid.
That's funny.
You like doing business
with Twinky LeMoyne?
It's good for me.
For him,
it's no big deal, really.
I mean, if there's a business
around here making money,
you can be sure
he's got a plece of it.
Take a picture?
What?
Picture?
Yeah.
I'm General John Bell Hood,
commander of the Texas brigade,
commander of the
the 5th Texas Cavalry,
and the 17th Texas Infantry.
Do you object
to shaking hands?
Am I dead?
You don't look
like it to me.
You were at Gettysburg.
The war's over.
It's never over.
I would think
you'd know that.
You were a lieutenant in the
United States Army, weren't you?
My head hurts.
My head...
sure does hurt.
Venal and evll people
are destroying the world
you were born in.
It's us against them,
my good friend.
Don't compromise your principles
or abandon your cause.
Do you know what's waiting
for me on down the road?
For one reason or another,
I find I have more insight
into the past than the future.
Try to keep
this in mind:
It's just like when
they load their cannon
with horseshoes
and log chain.
You'd think the barrage
would last forever.
Then all of a sudden,
there's a sllence
louder than the cannon flre.
Please don't be alarmed
by the severity of my comparison.
Have a good night, Lieutenant.
Paramedics who brought you in
said you were talking
about Confederate soldiers
out in the swamp.
It was an usual night.
What's the possibillity that one
laced your Dr. Pepper?
Do what?
The tox screen came back
positive for LSD.
I need to talk
to the sheriff.
The sheriff
was here this morning.
You talked to him
for half an hour.
What'd I say?
Nothing that made
any sense to me.
When you reel him in
through the water,
his little legs and tail
wiggle like he was swimming.
Makes the black bass hungry.
How would you define
the idea of understanding?
Well, it's knowing something
and knowing what it means.
I think there's two ways
of looking at
the idea of understanding.
One is, if you don't look,
you never will see.
And the other is,
if you look a little less,
you might see
a hell of a lot more.
You might not be over those drugs
they put in your drink.
I know General John Bell Hood
of the Texas Calvary
just like he was
my own grandfather.
Are you accusing me
of working with the mafia?
When you do business with a man
like Julle Balboni,
I don't do business
with him.
I don't do anything
with him.
I'm a member
of a group of investors
that have put money
into a movie production
in New Iberia.
Investing in the local economy,
that's all.
Are your employees
union people?
No, they certainly are not.
You own half of a security
service with Murphy Doucet,
don't you?
That's right,
I certainly do.
And your partner
in your security service
is a Teamster steward
over in Lafayette.
some strange contradictions,
Mr. LeMoyne.
You'll have to excuse me,
Detective.
I've got
to lock up now.
I have a lot of people
I take care of, you know?
Would you like
to have Julie Balboni
for a next door neighbor?
Would you like to have
your granddaughter
working for him?
Mr. Roblcheaux,
I can't express to you
how offensive you are.
Did you get
that blond-haired girl
to lick your leg
the other night?
There's my business card.
Thank you
for your time.
Here you go, Dave.
Still 1965,
July, September, November.
Thank you, chere.
You're welcome.
How's Alafair?
Blen bonne.
Great.
A n*gger,
you say?
DeWitt Prejean.
Black man
name of DeWitt Prejean.
Yeah, I remember
that son of a b*tch.
What about him?
Were you on duty the night
somebody broke him out of jail?
I was the jailer.
Jailers don't work nights.
They hire a man
for that.
Do you remember what
He wasn't charged
with nothing.
Never got to that.
They busted him
out of the tank.
Not according
to the newspaper.
Lot of people wipe
their asses with newspaper.
Newspaper said he broke
into a white woman's house
with a butcher knife.
Was DeWitt Prejean
a rapist?
He couldn't keep
his prick in his pants,
if that's what you mean.
Is it all right if I sit down
here, Mr. Hebert?
Sure.
You think her husband
broke him out of jail?
He might have
if he could've.
He was a crippled man.
Got shot up
in a war.
Where's he at now?
He's in the cemetery
out by the tracks,
east of town.
What about the woman?
She moved away,
up north somewhere.
What's your interest in this
I think I saw him killed.
Where's the man who was on duty
the night of the jailbreak?
He got drunk and got his self
run over by a train.
Wait a minute.
What'd you say?
You saw what?
What you think I saw,
Mr. Hebert?
Hello?
You're a hard man to catch.
Who's this?
Sugar, it's Amber.
Don't you remember me?
Don't hurt my feelings.
No, I'm sorry.
I don't remember who you are.
What can I do for you?
It's me that's going to do you
a big favor, darling.
I'm going to give you
the guy you want.
What guy we talking about?
The nasty old plmp that's been
leaving dead girls around.
Meet me at Club Leon
in an hour.
Thanks for coming out, Lou.
Yeah, who you supposed
to be meeting up with here?
Said her name was Amber.
There's a hooker,
calls herself Amber.
What are we doing tonight?
I'm going to drive around front
and have a look inside.
I'd like you to be out here
to cover my back.
I don't want to walk
into no setup.
What are you having?
Has Amber been in?
Amber Martinez?
Short, skinny,
maybe weigh 100 pounds
sopping wet?
- Yeah.
- No, she ain't been in.
What you drinking?
- Dr. Pepper.
- Dr. Pepper, yes, sir.
I could call somebody,
might know where she's at.
Why don't you do that?
