Of course, we want the guys who are the regulars on the show to come out OK. Even though things get sorted out and the victims were mostly really bad guys, the specter of racism hover over everything. The Latino community had seen all this before and some of the police made comments that showed what their feelings were. Grissom has a great moment where he tells the crowd that he will present science to them, not attempt to sell them a theory. Brass's culpability is so sad because he is one who recognizes the unfairness. It's also hard to assess too much blame when bullets are flying right and left, and, in his direction.

The Truth
claudio_carvalho28 January 2023
The fourth criminal. Jose Fausto, is shot to death while leaving the motel with the Warrick and Det. Cavaliere. Meanwhile, the CSI investigates the occupants of the Buick, who are involved in drug trafficking. Grissom uses a dummy to determine who shot Bell. Then he is summoned by Undersheriff McKeen to explain the truth to the angry community. Capt. Brass meets Mrs. Bell in the funeral and they embrace each other.
"A Bullet Runs Through It: Part 2" is another great episode of "CSI", with the brilliant conclusion of the SCI investigators for the shootout of the previous episode. Grissom finds the truth about the murder of Officer Bell and fortunately Sofia was not the responsible for the murder of officer Bell; otherwise, she would be certainly destroyed. Brass is more experienced and certainly more able to support his superiors. The touching moment is when Brass and Mrs. Bell embrace each other. My vote is eight.

Too Drawn Out, But A Wonderful Ending

Most of this episode deals with cleaning up the case, so to speak, mainly finding out who killed the policeman after it was discovered he was shot with "friendly fire." It appears "Sophia" accidentally killed her peer, but it could also be Captain Brass. It has to be one of those two who was in line when the officer suddenly stood up and got shot through the neck.
Meanwhile, the father of the high school kid who was shot discovers that is not the police, but one of the killers who hit his son just to rob his bicycle in the getaway.
Frankly, I thought this two-part show was stretched out too far, making two shows into what really could have been done with one tighter script. Most of this episode was a bit boring.
However, the ending made up for any shortcomings.....just the kind of ending I was hoping to see, but didn't think I would. (hint: forgiveness is wonderful human trait we often don't see on TV or in the movie theater.)

It started out great but the ending was a letdown

This episode started out really good and it was somewhat promising but it had the same issue most CSI episodes did towards the end.
At the end they didn't really prove anything and all the evidence they had was inconclusive so they had to "reconstruct the crime scene" using laser tags which never yield accurate results. None of the conclusions they reached during this episode would make it to a real court because they are circumstantial at best, total guesswork at worst.
Two episodes wasted for a case they didn't really solve but they still pretended that they solved the case at the end.

Gripping until the end.

But not one of the best episodes either. It was clearly a 2000s series, because the conclusions were devoid of that annoying woke narratives that plummeted most TV shows lately, and does the revival series recently. The first part was blurry, the investigation could have gone either way, and like I said, had it been made today. It would've been full of preachiness and political agendas. Fortunately, it wasn't. The way they found evidence may be « too easy » but at least we got some sense of closure. Instead of the frustrating ending I feared at one point in the episode. Brass being Bell's « shooter » was handled nicely, and I was touched by the victim's wife reaction. It really wasn't his fault. Grissom telling off that publicity hungry family, with cold hard truths, was another enjoyable moment for me. After that awful fifth season finale, and the early episodes of season 6, the show seems to be slowly, but surely. Back on track.
