Trivia
This episode appears to be based on the 1997 murders of Chris Foote and Spring Wright.

Goofs
At one point, ADA Carmichael stated that Bail Agent Difka had been dishonorably discharged from the Marines. ATF Form 4473, Firearms transaction Record, Section 11g, asks "Have you been discharged from the Armed Forces under dishonorable conditions". A yes answer would preclude Difka from ever owning a firearm. While he could still be a bounty hunter (eg: Dog, the Bounty Hunter) he would have not been allowed to carry a gun.

Quotes
Phil: Mr Dow isn't here. A couple of other detectives picked him up an hour ago.
Detective Rey Curtis: That would be "detectives" Granada and Difka?
Phil: You work with them?
Detective Lennie Briscoe: We're members of a mutual admiration society.

This episode marks the time that the normally diffident Jerry Orbach really got worked up over a case.

Orbach and Benjamin Bratt get assigned a case of a multiple gunshot victim found in the trunk of a car. in tracking down the perpetrators they discover that the two perpetrators are bail agents. Stephen DeRosa and Christopher McHale aren't bound by ordinary rules of search and seizure. They go in with guns blazing and leave a lot of innocent bodies and that sickens everyone especially Orbach.

This story ought to make anyone think who wants to jump bail. You just have no rights.
