DiscretionEpisode Number: 33 Season Num: 2 First Aired: Sunday December 19, 2004 Prod Code: n/a |
The team re-opens the 2000 case of a prominent Puerto Rican assistant district attorney when rumors about his connection to a large amount of money gone missing at the time of his death start to circulate. However, his widow insists that the claims are not true. The re-investigation reveals that the victim was prosecuting a murder trial and the man convicted for the crime after his death may possibly be innocent.

Scotty: Maybe I'll look at this job, Sinclair Thomas.
Lt. Stillman: You got any direction?
Scotty: I just like his name. (edit) Lt. Stillman: It's got to be personal – you don't stab someone twelve times just to rob them and then leave the car and money behind. (edit)

Nitpick: The medical examiner found 12 stab wounds in the victim. In the flashback scene showing the murder, there were only 9 stabs.
(edit)
Both Det. Valens and the victim are Puerto Rican, which is why Scotty is the one to "see" him at the end of the episode.
(edit)
This episode is likely based on the 2003 case of Jonathan Luna, an up-and-coming Baltimore DA who disappeared one night from the federal courthouse. Luna was found stabbed to death in Pennsylvania, and toll records showed that his car had gone on a mysterious multi-state journey before his death. The previous year, $40,000 in untraceable evidence money disappeared from the courthouse, leading some to suspect a connection to Luna's murder.

DiscretionSuperb "Fine example" How much more convenient for Greg Vizcaino's career if a Puerto Rican kid raped and murdered the white girl in the park? Who's going to believe a gay hustler? A dope dealer? But blood isn't thicker than truth. The killer didn't know that. Continue » Posted May 28, 2007 11:30 pm PST |
