Quotes:

Narrator: In the criminal justice system, deputy district attorneys represent the people. The prosecutors you are about to see, and the cases they try, are real. Nothing has been reenacted.

Movie Connections:

Spin off from "Law & Order" (1990)

The justice system at work

Incredible! If you are not the type to sit in a court room and watch a case in person, you might want to check this show out. San Diego, California is the setting in which real life cases of all types are filmed. The perspective is from the Prosecution side as the attorneys work hard to put the bad guys (or gals)away. Many of these cases are hard to watch because of what is covered (murders and rapes are especially brutal to watch),and a lot of action behind the scenes is heartbreaking (the families of the various victims). Very good show to watch and have your hankies ready while you're at it.
