- Quotes
Justin Brooks: Brian, I want to help you. I do. And in a perfect world you and I would just waltz into the court, you tell them what Shayla said and they'd reopen your case. But that is not the world we live in. The system is broken. It's what I'm trying to tell you. It just doesn't care.
Brian Banks: I'm just suppose to accept that? That the system is broken? You know what I say to that? Fuck the system. No, for real, man. Why can't we at least try? What is the system? It's people. yeah, It's cops, lawyers, judges. If one of them ha just cared enough to even go down that hallway Kennisha said I dragged her, listened to how the tiniest little noise echoes, I wouldn't have this damn thing on my leg... Mr. Brook.
Justin Brooks: Justin...
Brian Banks: Justin. I know the system doesn't care about me. I've known that my whole life. The question is, do you?
