- My Lord, I demand a recess.
There will be no demands made
in my court.
Stand back.
This alibi for Gerry Conlon...
was taken by Mr Dixon...
one month after
Gerry Conlon was arrested.
This note was attached to it
when I found it in police files.
It reads, "Not to be shown
to the defence."
I have one question
to ask you, Mr Dixon:
Why was the alibi for Gerry Conlon...
who was charged with the murder
of five innocent people...
kept from the defence?
- Give us an answer!
- Answer the question!
Silence!
- It's about time!
- Order in the court!
My Lord, I would like
to approach the bench.
This is most irregular.
Yes. I am aware of that, My Lord.
Very well.
Mr Dixon, you may stand down.
This is the man
who should be under arrest!
Be silent, Mrs Peirce!
- Guards, get ready.
Don't try and make me
the fall guy...
for the whole
British legal establishment.
If I accept this mercy deal...
They have a flipping cheek,
offering me mercy.
They should be begging
for mercy themselves.
- You ready, Mr Conlon?
- Aye.
I know the difference
between right and wrong.
The truth has to come out.
They may not want to hear it...
but there's people outside
who'll listen.
- Just think about it, will you?
- All right.
Aye. Give us three of them.
Silence!
In the matter ofHer Majesty...
versus Gerard Patrick Conlon...
the case is hereby dismissed.
My husband died in your prison
an innocent man!
I'll see you outside.
- This way.
- I'm going out the front door.
What about Giuseppe Conlon?
Your Honour,
he was an innocent man!
Mr Conlon, that's not a good idea.
Use the back,
for security reasons.
I'm a free man,
and I'm going out the front door.
In the matter of
Her Majesty versus Paul Hill...
the case is hereby dismissed.
Leave me alone!
I'm going out the front door with Gerry!
In the matter of
Her Majesty versus Patrick Armstrong...
the case is hereby dismissed.
In the matter of
Her Majesty versus Carole Richardson...
the case is hereby dismissed.
I'm an innocent man!
I spent 15 years in prison
for something I didn't do!
I watched my father die...
in a British prison
for something he didn't do!
And this government
still says he's guilty!
I want to tell them...
that until my father
is proved innocent...
until all the people involved
in this case are proved innocent...
until the guilty ones
are brought to justice...
I will fight on...
in the name of my father
and of the truth!
