Killer Ratings : Judgement (2019)


Made for Netflix, airing on instant streaming May 31st in the US.
Season 1. Episode 6.
The story: Wallace knew his days of freedom were numbered and he wanted some time.
Behind the scenes, Governor Eduardo Braga gave the strict order to find Wallace.
All points of exit and entry were monitored and Wallace was now on the National Fugitive List.
Everyone was talking and waiting.
No one knew where Wallace was, including his family who were worried about his safety.
Finally, he was found in the middle of the night staying with some friends.
Scared for his life, he was convinced that he would not be jailed with other inmates and his safety would be secured.
Wallace agreed to give himself up and arrived at the jail where the press was kept at bay.
Many family members of the dead were outside the jail yelling and cursing at Wallace.
Vanessa, who was the producer on 'Canal Livre' visited with Wallace many times and was asked by him to never give up on his innocence.
She made it a mission of hers to try and help her beloved boss.
That's when she got a call from jailed drug trafficker Frankenzinho of the 40th's sister, Patricia.
Patricia claimed she knew Wallace was innocent of the crimes he was accused of and Vanessa sent this information along to the police.
Meanwhile, the Task Force was trying to decide which crime to try Wallace with first.
It was decided on Wallace being responsible for drug trafficker Cacula's death.
The charge was aggravated homicide and the motive was revenge for the drug-related death of Wallace's younger brother.
On the day of the trial, Moa testified and talked in detail about the day of Cacula's murder.
Wallace was ill and unable to stand trial so the judge went to him and in the end, concluded that he was telling her all lies.
Raphael, Mario, Moa, and Wallace were all named in the murder of Cacula.
It was said that Wallace rented the car that took Raphael and Moa, along with Mario driving to the scene of the crime.
But when the owner of the rental car service testified and swore Wallace never rented a car from him the case fell apart.
Witnesses were murdered and some were too scared to testify.
The Task Force along with the judge all were receiving death threats.
When Frankenzinho' of the 40th was arrested his sister Patricia took over his operation.
When a warrant was out for Patricia's arrest inside the house many narcotics were found along with cash.

She claimed Wallace said he would pay her if she took out any of the Task Force officers because then they would be too scared to proceed.
Then Patricia claimed Vanessa was part of Souza's criminal organization...
Patricia denied telling Vanessa anything on her own but that Vanessa paid her to do it.
All and any proof was always coming from testimonies of drug dealers.
When Vanessa was brought in to talk with the Task Force she felt intimidated.
She wouldn't say anything that incriminated Wallace and this angered them, finally putting Vanessa in jail.
Everything now happening convinced Wallace's attorney that he was being set up.
Then came a new witness.
A businessman in the car trade that happened to be a cousin of deceased drug dealer Bebetinho.
It looked like they were interested in using because he thought Wallace was involved in his cousin's murder and wanted revenge.
After many grueling months in jail, Vanessa was released. 
In jail now Patricia began claiming she was tortured into telling lies about Wallace by Thomas Vasconcelos.
Shortly after which Patricia was released from jail and then she was killed...
Then, a verdict came in.
