About this listen

When a baseball fan despised for costing the team the pennant is killed in a bar, Detectives Briscoe and Green connect the crime to Walter Grimes, a man released from prison after 20 years for a murder he didn't commit. Attorney Rodney Fallon (played by Giancarlo Esposito) argues he's innocent because his time as a wrongfully convicted man made him a murderer.

McCoy and Southerlyn find the cop who originally framed him. He says the bloody knife he planted was from a different murder committed by Grimes. The prosecutors must rely on planted evidence and the dirty cop to prove the defendant was already a killer before being set up.

We’re talking about Law & Order season 14 episode 21 “Vendetta.” Our ten-time returning guest is Sarah D. Bunting.

This episode draws inspiration from the infamous 2003 Steve Bartman foul ball incident at Wrigley Field.
