This episode was a ripoff from Law & Order: Criminal Intent, Season 6, Episode 16. In that story, Josh was a journalist and was poisoned with polonium. Josh was friends with Mike Logan from long ago. Josh contacts Logan and tells him the same thing "I want to report a murder - MINE." The writers didn't even change the line in this script! Same line used in this episode. Why oh why can't they come up with something different? Do they think the viewers won't remember? With L&O: CI reruns running on several different networks (as well as streaming on various platforms) - a lot of people WILL remember the episode! It's too bad - Jesse L Martin is a good actor ... and likable. Give him better stories and scripts - that aren't directly ripped off from another series.
