Law & Order
Thursdays 8:00 PM on NBCLaw & Order Quotes
Maroun: At least we know Kelton's guilty.
Nolan: Too bad we can't tell anyone.
Scott: Veronica accused me of raping her. She wanted an apology. I refused. I wasn't going to apologize for something I didn't do. She hit me and after that things happened fast.
Nolan: You're gonna need to do more than that.
Scott: I pushed her and she fell, and she hit her head on a rock or something. She started bleeding and I knew at that moment that my life was over. It was her or me, and no one would ever believe my side of the story. So I choked her.
I hope you know what the hell you're doing. No one gives more to charity than Scott Kelton. He has done so much for this city.
Mayor
Defense attorney: You have two prior convictions. Is that correct?
Walsh: Yes.
Defense attorney: You were convicted of assault in 2010?
Walsh: Yeah. A guy stole food from my cart, so I hit him.
Defense attorney: And you were convicted of sexual assault in 2019?
Walsh: I took a plea. My ex made the whole thing up. It's not what it looks like.
Defense attorney: It's exactly what it looks like. You were convicted of sexual assault.
Politics play no role in this case. This murder will be tried in a courtroom, not at this press conference.
McCoy
Doorman: Tell you what Next time I see him I'll sneak up behind him and...
Ripley: Please don't. Leave the police work to the police.
Miguel: I didn't kill that woman.
Shaw: Then why did you run?
Miguel: I got scared. I don't like police.
Shaw: What were you doing in the park so early?
Miguel: I have a job. I clock in at six every morning.
Shaw: That makes sense. What doesn't is why you have a woman's necklace in your pocket.
I'll send the report over. But Nolan, he threw a punch for me. Who does that? And as stupid and reckless as that was, I appreciate it.
Dixon
Man: You don't get to walk away like those other people didn't exist, like my Theresa didn't exist!
Maroun: Sir, of course she existed. All we're saying is we don't have enough evidence yet to move forward.
Man: And why is that?
Maroun: You'd have to talk to the police.
Man: And they'll tell me the same nonsense they've been telling me. WHy don't you admit that y'all don't care about poor Black people? Cause if you did, you'd have all that damn evidence you say you need.
Maroun: The people seek remand. The defendant's DNA was found under the victim's fingernails, and it's worth noting that he is a suspect in three other homicides. Plus, he took a woman hostage and held a gun to her head, and we'll be adding kidnapping charges later today. Given that and his financial means, this defendant is a flight risk.
Defense attorney: Your honor, the evidence is weak. This is a witch hunt meant to score headlines.
Judge: Defendant is remanded.
Defense attorney: Your Honor, he's willing to pay a 5 million dollar bond.
Judge: He can be willing to pay 5 billion dollars for all I care. This is about safety.
Riley: We got him.
Shaw: Now we just gotta find him.
Shaw: So obviously I didn't know Olivia Washington was a sex worker. I missed that in her file. I just t thought...
Riley: I was fishing for gossip?
Shaw: So Olivia's case just went cold.
Riley: Yeah, no body, no witnesses.
Shaw: I think it'sstrange nobody found anything.
Riley: Yeah?
Shaw: Yeah.
Riley: You've been working Homicide for a few years, right?
Shaw: True.
Riley: So you know it's not that strange in cases like that.
Shaw: Cases like that?
Riley: Missing person's cases. Look, if you have something to say to me, bro, just say it.
Shaw: I am saying it.
Riley: Yeah? Which is what?
Shaw: That poor Black girls don't et the same kind of love as rich white girls.
