Another wonderful episode that unfortunately shows that the police may sometimes be wrong.
In a very tragic situation, a police officer kills an arrested man arguing with the mother of their child in a bathroom incident when the man began attacking the officer, and the latter placed him in a fatal choke-hold.
Though the grand-jury failed to indict the officer, Frank, as commissioner, did the right thing at the end, especially when he discovered that the officer had been in an assault situation while working somewhere else.
The sidebar story is where Jamie's father finally goes to see her imprisoned father. Jamie, Will Estes, certainly doesn't speak as a supposed Harvard graduate would speak. He comes across as a street- wise police officer, which is exactly what he does on the show.
Interesting to note that this was the first episode where son Danny, Donnie Wahlberg, appears briefly.
