Jake Gyllenhaal as Risty Sabich sitting in court in AppleTV+'s 'Presumed Innocent'
The Big Picture Apple TV+'s legal thriller Presumed Innocent, starring Jake Gyllenhaal, Ruth Negga, Peter Sarsgaard, and Bill Lamb, just delivered a fascinating ending. In the seventh and final episode of the series based on Scott Turow's 1987 novel, the jury was tasked with determining whether former chief deputy prosecutor Rusty Sabich murdered his mistress and colleague Carolyn Polhemus in a crime of passion.
Cast Jake Gyllenhaal , Tate Birchmore , Kingston Rumi Southwick , Roberta Bassin Main Genre Drama Seasons 1 What Is Rusty Sabich Charged With in 'Presumed Innocent'? Close The series makes several changes from the source material, which is to be expected with an almost 40-year gap between the two. In Turow's novel, Rusty and Barbara only have one child, and their son is too young to really be involved in the plot.
Rusty has been accused of first-degree murder in the violent murder of his co-worker Carolyn Polhemus, with whom he was having an extramarital affair. It's a particularly graphic and disturbing murder scene, making it that much harder to believe that Rusty, a lawyer and father, could have done something so brutal. As for motive, Carolyn was in the process of trying to end the affair, and Rusty was in love with her.
The twist ending occurs in the garage at the Sabich house, where Barbara is interrupted by Rusty as she is doing a workout, who tells her that he knows that she is the one who killed Carolyn, and he covered for her by tying Carolyn up in the same way that a serial killer did with his prior victims to throw law enforcement off the trail. Then, the beautiful curveball occurs, as Jaden enters the garage and interrupts Rusty as he accuses Barbara of the hideous crime.
