So far I enjoyed this serie immensely due to the variety of cases and the hands on approach in solving the crimes. The office politics is minor but a bit to thick when it's around. But that's part of the charm. The only thing I allways regret is when the writers allow characters to stay on the investigation team after they are personally connected to the case, in any way. I'm a sun of a cop, a chief inspector of the major crimes departement and no way, I mean, NOT IN ANY WAY, are cops maintained in the investigation if they are implicated by or connected to the case. Especially not on their own accoord. That is just standard police procedure which serves a purpose. The investigation should be clear of potential bias to hold up in court. Ofcourse, it's more interesting to give them some lenience because it makes the officer more human. But in this case a federal officer picks up the innocent brother of a bom making terrorist and brings him in serious harms way when he brings him to the fresh bomb site just to convince the maker to give up the cancel code to stop the explosion. I know you have the patriot act but is flagrant violation of citizens safety which is even punishable by law. And after this insubordination apparently its allowed for his superior to say they instructed him to do so. This is stretching to much for my taste. Ofcourse he should have lost his job if only to maintain public credibility as law enforcement. Bad use of creative freedom as a writer.
