Guest Cast:
Vic Manoulis tries to remain impartial when justice-seeker Michael Kidd takes on the defence of two detectives charged with assaulting a bouncer, an event that leaves the cops with a lot of mixed emotions. Kidd is a crafty operator, but a man who makes a living defending cop-killers seems somewhat inapt for this case. The case is a particularly distressing experience for prosecutor Jenny Hansen, especially after a particularly shoddy performance from her star witness, whose story has more holes than a Swiss cheese; he can not account for an hour and a half, he misidentifies the drinks the detectives bought, and Kidd provokes him into outbursts that make him look bad. Across town, Rob Griffin continues his investigation into a ten-year-old murder case after a chance remark from Clyde implicates Mal Hennessey in the shooting of two policemen some years earlier. He manages to get the files on the original case, and unearths some damning evidence — a recording of Mal boasting about the buzz he got from his first killing and implicating himself in other murders. So, while the prosecutors see one case go down the drain, the bigger picture begins to look a lot more promising. |
