At the end of the episode the cop is arrested for seemingly no reason. He helps Goren et al to get the preppy guy to confess to the rape, then suddenly Goren starts accusing him of the murder. No proof is given to back up these accusations yet he is put in handcuffs. Apparently we're supposed to believe the "proof" was the fact that he knew about the covering of the victim's 'modesty'. The problem with that is Goren mentioned it right before turning on the cop. I have gone over it again and again in my head and I still don't understand it.
The other thing is, why did Goren pull up the victim's dress at the beginning of the episode? The impression I got was that it was to trick the preppy guy into giving away the fact that he'd seen the body before the cops had brought him there thus proving his guilt. The problem with this is that at the end of the episode Goren himself said that the fact the victim had been covered up suggested that the preppy guy was guilty. In fact after turning on the cop, Goren explains that the cop covered her up specifically to frame preppy guy. That being the case why did Goren do it? I actually like this episode a lot but these two things really bugged me.
