Don’t know how I feel about this episode. Once again Maroun just rubs me the wrong way. Wanting to go easy on the activist and then not wanting the student in college on a student visa to testify because she would be expelled and deported. Seriously? Actions have consequences. The Judge presiding over the trial must have had an obvious bias or something because his rulings made no sense. Wasn’t the sweatshirt in plain view anyway? And expectation of privacy in a tent in an encampment that had been deems against the code of conduct? Then allowing the line of questioning he did to the student in the USA on a student visa was so out of line as it had nothing to do with the case. And that finally brings me to Baxter. Guess he’s going to be a DA that’s easily controlled by the Mayor. And this is where I say I miss Jack. Baxter should have stood his ground. After all he just won reelection so he’s safe in the position for at least the next 4 years. That just didn’t make any sense.
didn't realize this site had threads for episodes too like primetimer...if it's okay I'll post it here as well
okay, I thought this was a complex and compelling episode, my favorite of the reboot so far...I don't always like the ripped from the headlines ones but this was well done
couple notes about one of my passions, pointing out repeat appearances of guest stars/roles, first in the original series, then people who have been in the original and now the reboot
the new Mayor of NYC was in the original multiple times I believe...which brings me to the defendant...this was the kid in the original series who was kidnapped and then molested by a creep and then the defendant killed the young kid the creep brought in to molest...I think I have that right, but if not, correct me...thing is I don't recognize him from anything else but these L&O roles though I'm sure he's worked elsewhere...still looks young now many years later, playing a student...he definitely does go down as the first person to be a defendant and killer in the original and the reboot
I agree that Maroun was way off base in this case. Too sympathetic. Price was correct when he reminded Maroun that the woman broke the rules by participating in the protest and choices have consequences! That sweatshirt was in plain view but I suppose they had to still get that warrant. I wonder if they had taken a photo of it thought the screen if it would have sufficed rather than go in? Either way, he was spotted on the video leaving the judge's residence AND wearing the t-shirt on that video with the other student.
One question I had about the judge and I may have missed something - why was she concerned her addiction was going to come out. Did she think it was more common knowledge and if it was, weren't her past cases already in question, so the mayor's argument with Baxter would be moot?
Yes the kid was in two other Law & Order episodes and one of them played a kid who was kidnapped.
I still liked the episode though.
