Cain plays evil well, but leaves a little to be desired

Warning: Spoilers
Dean Cain does a great job of playing the evil and conniving rapist. But honestly I've never been a fan of the episodes where the perp is identified right away in the beginning, and the rest of the show is spent trying to find a way to nail the slippery sucker who keeps annoyingly getting off by technicality. A little more mystery or at least a little bit of a hunt would be nice. You almost assume that the perp is going to turn out to be somebody different but what you see is what you get. The detectives don't do as much detecting in this one. The part of the wife is a little uneventful as well. I was hoping there would be more depth to her finally standing up for herself and her morals, but as another reviewer stated she's just sort of a doormat.
