Law & Order Chosen (1990–2010) watch online HD

Two yuppies got out of an Italian restaurant totally drunk. One opened the wrong car at parking lot, noticing a dead body in the trunk. Policemen soon cut them loose and started investigating in victim's life. He was a bookie but not a traditional one: his company is placed oversea (Costa Rica) and he placed bets for wealthy people in the city. He was a real peace of work: he took advantage of a girl who owed him 25 grand and he used to mock his girlfriend (Emily Wing) by promising to marry her sooner or later. A colleague stole the murder weapon (a steak knife) from a restaurant in order to kill him after an argument; the perp embezzled money for his own purpose and the victim found it out. But what seemed to be an easy case for the prosecutors it's not a piece of cake at all...

The freak defense attorney since the beginning tried to get the jury's sympathy. He admitted the money was about to be used for the greater good (donation to Jewish organization for people crippled by terrorist attack) and some members of the Jury, as well as the judge, were actually Jews. McCoy and Southerlyn had to work hard in one of the longest trial in "Law & Order" franchise.

This episode of Law And Order marks the first of three appearances for defense attorney Randolph Dworkin and this episode is the best of the three. Sam Waterston learned to despise this man and with good reason.

The murder involves the death of a bookie. Not a guy who works out of a back table at the late Blarney Stone restaurants taking bets, but a man in partnership with a betting firm which is headquartered in Costa Rica and takes its bets by e-mail. Its clientèle is a high end one.

The investigation leads Briscoe and Green eventually to his partner who is married Jewish man with children who was skimming some of the action. Six figure skimming I might add. So John Rothman is arrested.

Peter Jacobson playing Dworkin is some piece of work. During the voir dire he loads the jury with Jews hoping for at very least a hung jury. And then the defense, Jacobson did it so he could give the money to Israel. At most jury nullification.

I would say off hand that Jacobson was guilty of chutzpah in the first degree. Fortunately both Sam Waterston and Elisabeth Rohm are up to his tricks. Mind you they never offer any real proof that this stolen betting money was going to Israel.

God Bless this Jewish jury which saw quite clearly the appeal to their heritage and prejudice.

What the HELL Dick? I knew you back we you were a legend, and inspiration to all of us. What happen to you? Not since the novel "Mark Twain" by Clemens has (for him a book, for you your integrity and body of work) fallen from grace with such speed and a plummeting towards Fascism.

The character played by the great Sam Waterston, who may remember and know and love him from his PERFECT portrayal of Nick Carraway in Fitzgerald's "The Great Gatsby".

How can I ever point to Executive A.D.A. Jack McCoy as an example for my European friends of why I am proud to be an American. Especially when I next vacation in Tel Aviv and I have to make hundreds of apologies to my friends as an American.

I feel like I have been betrayed by the last good thing to survive 9/11.
