DEAR FREEKEN GOODNESS!!! Thank you current show I am watching!
Been watching Police Procedurals for years and the one thing that has been utterly deplorable in all modern police procedurals is they treat a simple thing like DUE PROCESS like it was created to let criminals go free... So they break every single law, bend it to unconstitutional levels, or harass suspects. It is why I HATE modern Law and Order.
Which would be fine if these shows were self aware and the fact that they are butchering justice in order to serve their sense of justice or were breaking the law for their idea of the greater good. But no they are treated as the big heroes and the justice system as something people just need to maneuver around.
This show? They have a stack of evidence against him but none of it is conclusive... the main character is even "Lets just raid his house!" and no one lets her do it.
Mind you they did it more on "But the scandal!" grounds... But I'll take what I can freeken get!

The other issue with police procedurals... but mostly with CSI... Is they like to pick minorities, fringe cultures, and people who aren't well understood... And turn them into the villains.
Basically all the logic that goes into racism on display... without the actual racism.
To admit though... That is also the more hilarious part. The episodes on Videogames can be considered hilarious! I love how in one the villain was a girl who just wanted to be one of the guys and prove she could do it too.
Because as you know... Women don't play videogames. They are as rare as a celestial unicorn.
