One of the better cop shows, right up there with Major Crimes. Murder in the First is a winner thanks to the great writing and the great actors doing incredible justice to their characters. It needs to be renewed!!!!!

Trite. The cops were as bad as criminals. Any way to get a conviction. Ends justify the means attitude.
