Xeliou66 July 19, 2019 Share July 19, 2019 (edited) Yes it’s the same guy who was in the CI episode Purgatory and a few other CI episodes that played the defense lawyer. I like Immortal a lot, it’s a very interesting story. I thought it was a lousy move by Cutter to ask about Van Buren’s cancer on the stand without warning her beforehand, I get why he did it but he was still a dick for doing it without asking Van Buren beforehand or at least letting her know beforehand, and I was glad Van Buren blew him off at the end. I liked Cutter, McCoy and Rubirosa working out a deal at the end with both the killer and Hema Labs, very good scene. Edited July 19, 2019 by Xeliou66 3 Link to comment

Though the one with Anita was much worse. The first of course, was ambushing Liz about her relationship with Mike Logan* on the stand. And it was so odd--the episode after "Immortal" you saw Anita still hadn't forgiven Mike for what he'd done, yet in the series finale, they seemed to have "made up" if you will. *No one will convince me it wasn't MIKE that Liz had a relationship with, and how in the bluedilly FUCK did Jack know about it anyway, since it was Ben Stone who was ADA at the time. I can't imagine Liz confiding this to Jack, but apparently, she did. Whatever, Show. Link to comment

Nothing was said about it and I don’t recall them having any scenes together in it. And regarding Olivet’s affair with a cop, if it was Logan, well Jack was an ADA at the time and I’m sure he worked with Olivet on cases, we just didn’t see it. Link to comment

I think he had a strong case of defending a 3rd party and I wouldn’t have minded seeing him walk, it would’ve been interesting to see that case go to trial and I don’t think a jury would’ve convicted him. 5 Link to comment

Yeah, but I can think of a number of non-arbitrary reasons for letting him keep the beard, including having heard the fan feedback and trying to hide some of the puffiness in VDO's face. Personally I hope it's the former - it would be nice if both the network and Wolf learned something from their mistakes in the last years of the mothership and did things differently when they had the chance with CI. 3 Link to comment

My headcanon is Logan, Curtis and Green were there, and stuffed an envelope full of cash with "in honor of Lennie" on it into the jar. I think it's funny to see the one about cancer from 5th season where Van Buren says she wouldn't keep working juxtaposed with her working in season 20. I wish we'd gotten season 21 but it would have been hard not seeing her there in charge, considering it's only been her and Cragen at the ol' 2-7. 5 Link to comment

shapeshifter July 24, 2019 Share July 24, 2019 (edited) S14 E11 "Darwinian" just aired, in which (metacritic.com 2004) Quote The apparent hit-and-run of a homeless man send the detectives on a search for the driver, a high profile female publicist, which fuels the fire for the prosecutors to obtain a murder conviction. Forensic evidence given during the trial reveal that the victim was severely beaten before being hit by the car which leads to a suspect within the homeless community The woman driving the $200,000+ car that hit the schizophrenic homeless victim gets off with probation and community service because an independent autopsy shows he died from an injury sustained hours earlier even though she first reveals during initial interrogation by Briscoe and Green that: Quote Hey, don't I have the right not to worry about some drunken bum stumbling in front of my car? Scaring me half to death. Oh, yeah, how dare they wander into your neighborhood. It was an accident. He just, It was late, and he just he just stepped out right in front of me. He just came out of nowhere, and I hit the brake, but he just flew into my windshield. And he was just hanging there like half in and half out. I just I panicked, so I I just turned the car into the garage. And I don't suppose calling an ambulance for the poor bastard ever crossed your mind. It wasn't like that. Was he still alive when you pulled in? He was moaning and I just I went inside for a few minutes to calm down, because I was so scared. And I just I sat there trying to figure out what to do. And I could I could hear him calling for help. You heard him calling for help. Yeah. When I went back to check on him Oh, God. He was dead. and even though at trial it is pointed out that: Quote The defendant left this man in her garage to die. If she'd gotten him medical attention, the doctors might have detected the hematoma, stopped the bleeding, saved his life. because defense attorney (played by Dylan Baker) says that: Quote I count at least three "maybes"in there. the judge then rules: Quote The criminally negligent homicide charge is dismissed. I'm accepting the defendant's pleas on obstruction and tampering. It seems wrong that the rich witch gets off with probation. Edited July 24, 2019 by shapeshifter 2 Link to comment

Xeliou66 July 24, 2019 Share July 24, 2019 It was not right that the rich witch in Darwinian got off with a slap on the wrist, but unfortunately it’s all too common for the wealthy and well connected to get off easy. She should’ve gone to prison, she could’ve gotten the guy help and perhaps saved his life, instead she just left him to die because she was a snobby uncaring elitist bitch. Darwinian is a great episode but it pissed me off that she got off. The situation in Sanctuary is a bit different IMO although it was similar in that a privileged person got off lightly for a hit and run, in Sanctuary the guy just left the scene, in Darwinian the woman heard the guy moaning in her garage and left him there to die, there was a big difference between the cases. 3 Link to comment

shapeshifter August 5, 2019 Share August 5, 2019 Just watched 2.2 "The Wages of Love": Quote A woman claims she suffered from extreme emotional disturbance when she shot her ex-husband and his young lover in bed. No doubt the ex-wife did it. The options are murder in the second degree, [involuntary or "Man 2" ??] manslaughter, or acquittal. At the proverbial eleventh hour, Stone decides to ask to have manslaughter removed as an option because it would only give her 4 years in prison for 2 murders. Then, at the eleven-and-a-half hour, while the jury is deliberating, Stone agrees to "Man One" (Voluntary Manslaughter??) for each of the 2 murders, which gives the murderer "just" 9 years in prison (less with parole?) rather than risk acquittal. On the way out of the courthouse, Stone overhears 2 jury members telling reporters: "10 minutes later, it would have been murder. We were voting. The way she used her son made us all furious." Does this mean they would have convicted, or is it just those 2 jurors speculating? And what does Stone think? Link to comment

She deserved much longer than the sentence she got, I would’ve gone to verdict if I was the lead prosecutor in that case. It was interesting seeing Lennie as defense lawyer Frank Lerhman in that episode. "I am not a piece of FURNITURE!!" 2 Link to comment

Maybe if the first wife had career, friends, hobbies, volunteer work, etc., she would not have felt like a piece of furniture. 1 2 Link to comment
