  1. And we have yet to have the identity of the "sex cult guru" revealed. It's highly likely he or someone else that we haven't seen yet is the real murderer. IMHO Gore Bellows is an idiot.
  2. Let me get this straight, a lantern that's been underwater for 17 years, is miraculously retrieved, and in a forensic lab's record time is deemed to be a murder weapon. All this while the key piece of evidence sits in the DA's office on display for any and all visitors to view and handle. Sorry, Gore Bellows your case will not hold water (pun intended).
  3. Her "fan club" has been diminished to hate-watchers. There are quite a few of them on this forum.
  4. ↑↑ In spades.↑↑ This over the hill cow should just turn over the reins to someone else. She has gotten unbearable.
  5. S01.E11: Shaken (04/26/2019) Summary: The team takes on the case of a mother, Gabrielle Parcell, who is serving a life sentence for shaking her infant daughter, leading to her death. Meanwhile, Levi and Madeline uncover more truths about Rosemary's past and their high school class, while Bellows and his team continue their mission to send Madeline back to prison.
  6. Yep, I had the same thought about Puerto Rico. Was also thinking if a certain paramedic was still at 51, adoption proceedings would be underway for the runaway kid. I also thought I saw two kids hiding in the truck at the beginning of the episode. But it was a mirror in the compartment.
  7. I was surprised no one from Voight's Intelligence Unit showed up to end the fiasco. Also, magic hands Bekker did heart surgery in record time and was as arrogant as usual afterward.
  8. I didn't understand that either, but it's obvious these medical shows really attempt creative ways for patients to die, even if some of them are totally beyond belief. The person that has a cancer-ridden death wish (Max) will likely be the one to beat the odds and live forever. I can't wait to see how they spin that one.
  9. I think she just shorted his dose and kept the rest. Wondering if it's for her or she's supplying someone else? Also, I thought she is an anesthesiologist, so why is she giving IV drugs to a patient who is not in the OR?
  10. You must be referring to "The Following" where Bacon played FBI agent Ryan Hardy. This fiasco lasted three seasons and portrayed the FBI in the most inept view possible. That said, portraying FBI ineptness seems to be the "in thing" on TV dramas.
  11. I'm not a lawyer and it went over my head also. It was something about 25% of the cost not being covered, privatization, and a dangerous precedent for the "rest of the country." If someone understands this gobbledygook, please explain. The guy is a vet, with a service-related condition, he deserves treatment no matter the cost.
  12. She kicked him out of the house. He left, nothing more.
  13. And Richard Gere (Billy Flynn) could be their legal representation.
  14. So the CIA guy with SUPER DUPER CLEARANCE takes the SUPER DUPER ENCRYPTED PHONE from the SUPER DUPER SECURE FILE CABINET and talks on that SUPER DUPER ENCRYPTED PHONE in plain sight of everyone and SUPER DUPER ERICA is able to read his lips and unmasks the secret of the TREASURE OF SIERRA MAESTRA. Give me a fucking break!!!!!!!!
  15. OR maybe he's got them stockpiled on ice in his Winnebago!
  16. There is no way ONE guy walks a hand truck full of cash into a bank. They always work in pairs.
  17. I just knew Arnie Becker would turn out to be a scumbag. I'm waiting to see what Lyle Menendez has up his sleeve.
  18. He was also David Greene on ER. Dr. Mark Greene's father.
  19. He's probably right. Kidnapping is high risk with odds of getting away unscathed very low.
  20. Police and FBI Acronyms, Codes and Terminology Used In the Books from Michael Connelly's website: https://www.michaelconnelly.com/extras/police-fbi-acronyms/
  21. Watched all of S05 yesterday. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Good job Titus and crew.
  22. Yes, they are, but I'm sure there will be some convoluted twist that will eventually show the "real killer." Anyone, what's up with all the initials and counting markings carved into the wall of the abandoned building?
  23. I think Double Jeopardy doesn't apply here. Under the Fifth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, prosecutors may not try a defendant for the same crime twice. For this reason, a person that is found not guilty by a jury cannot be then forced to face trial a second time. The double jeopardy protection does not apply, however, to a case where the defendant has successfully appealed his conviction. In such cases, prosecutors do have the right to retry a defendant a second time, although they must do so in light of whatever issues the appeals court relied upon in overturning the conviction. When Prosecutors Will Retry-After an Appeal Whether a defendant will face a retrial after an appeal is obviously an important question to consider, as a second conviction may deny that person the benefit of their efforts to appeal. Furthermore, a second conviction can include a second criminal sentence which may be more or less harsh than the original sentence. Ultimately, the decision of whether or not to retry after a conviction is completely within the discretion of the prosecutor’s office that had originally tried the case. In general, prosecutors bring cases on retrial when they think they have enough evidence to win, the potential for a sympathetic jury, and there is enough public sentiment in favor of retrial. Very few prosecutors intentionally bring cases they think they will lose, and so the decision on whether to conduct a retrial will be based on a variety of factors, but one of the key factors will be in whether they can believe they can score another conviction in light of the appeals court decision. If the appeals court threw out a main piece of evidence used in prosecuting the case, such as a confession or the admission of contraband, the prosecutors may not have the ability to win without that evidence, and thus would decline to retry. Likewise, if the court ruled that the jury was given incorrect instructions on the law, and the correct reading of the law would never support a second conviction, this may be another reason not to retry.
  24. He may have been the best character but his storylines surely sucked. And his being joined at the hip with Bekker made it even worse.
