  I never understood why anyone working for the justice system has any kind of immunity. Shouldn't they be held to a higher standard than an average person?

  &quot;I want to convict this <b>kid</b> too&quot; is an awesome thing to write for the good guys of your show.

  Looking back on Law and Order, I never realized the police bias is so heavily ingrained that the presumption of guilt is built into even the opening monologue.<br>&quot;In the criminal justice system, the people are represented by two separate yet equally important groups: the police, who investigate crime; and the district attorneys, who prosecute the offenders.&quot;<br><br>Prosecute the &gt;Offenders&lt;, not the accused.

  So what I&apos;m hearing is, growing up playing Ace Attorney where the defense lawyers are portrayed as heroically seeking a just trial against the scheming prosecution who want nothing but a clean streak of successful convictions evidence be damned, gave me a better moral compass than if I had watched these copaganda shows.

  Here&apos;s the issue I have with the violation of these Civil Rights - Cops and Prosecutors have a DUTY to obey these Rights BUT suffer NO CONSEQUENCES when they persistently violate such Rights - so why would they EVER respect such Rights?<br>If Cops and Prosecutors face Criminal Charges after failing to respect these Rights, how many of them would &quot;forget&quot;? - How many would end up in Jail, the same Jails they LOVE to put possibly innocent people in?

  I live in Lafayette Louisiana. The LPD shot and killed a toddler, wounded the mother, and wounded another young child. The only officer willing to testify was just killed in a friendly fire incident.

  I never really watched L&amp;O but I always remembered my favorite episodes were the ones when one of the main cops gets accused of a crime. &nbsp;It was always hilarious to me because the cops would get arrested for something they didn&apos;t do. &nbsp;They&apos;d get told they have a right to a lawyer and need to use that right, but they would always revoke that right and jump straight into the interrogation thinking they knew the system and could clear themself. &nbsp;But NO! &nbsp;The interrogators would always completely grill them and make them look more guilty. &nbsp;It always made me laugh when the cops get that shocked reaction to the very interrogation techniques they regularly used against suspects and not once did they stop and think &quot;This is unjust! &nbsp;Is this how we were treating our suspects all this time?&quot;

  Look, we&apos;re just withholding evidence that injects reasonable doubt into our case.

  I’ve heard the argument from people saying “If judges and prosecutors could be sued, every convicted person would sue over their conviction!” To which I say… GOOD! Make judges and prosecutors think twice about pursuing cases.

  There should be a separate show: Law &amp; Order: Court of Appeals, where every single case McCoy has ever tried gets overturned.

  I was in the car with a “friend”, didn’t know he was doing a pick-up before we went to the store. Turns out the cops were watching the house and had a sting planned. I was arrested with a perfectly clear record and work clothes on since I was on the way to a job. 2 ounces in the car, 1 known drug dealer (who was the main suspect of the investigation) and 1 guy in work clothes; they split the weight and put felony distribution on both of us.<br><br>My public defender tried to get me to sign a plea deal and they’d give me PTI. I looked him in the face and told him if you ever suggest that again I’ll walk out and represent myself. Ended up getting the charge dropped and expunged by the police before it even made it to trial.
