Special Master: Part One (2015)

Nadine Velazquez: D.D.A. Emma Rios

Quotes 

• Fritz Howard : This is the sixteenth time Stroh has been transported from county to Judge Schaeffer's chambers. You're risking somethin' terrible each time.

  D.D.A. Emma Rios : I can't help it. He fired his attorney and he started representing himself, and the deal my boss offered him forces me to give Stroh unlimited access to files from his former legal practice to review with the special master.

  Fritz Howard : [together with Emma]  ... the special master, to see where he can violate privilege and where he can't. I know all of that, but how long is this gonna go on? Is he just trying to play out the clock... or are you actually getting information out of him that could solve open cases?

  D.D.A. Emma Rios : There was one thing about a possibly active child molester, but it didn't pan out.

  Fritz Howard : But Stroh's ready to confess and make his statement of facts.

  D.D.A. Emma Rios : In exchange for information leading to the arrest and conviction of rapists and murderers, which, so far, he has failed to provide.

  Fritz Howard : But if you wanted, you could determine his communications valuable enough to give him life today... and end this whole process.

  D.D.A. Emma Rios : In this whole process... Phillip Stroh raped and murdered at least five women, and I can prove it. My opinion: he's too dangerous to be anywhere but on death row inside a maximum-security prison, and that is where I intend to put him unless he gives up something actionable. Excuse me, Chief Howard.
