Violations
Nothing's perfect - an overworked legal system mistakenly places a minor in Riker's Prison, where he becomes the victim of sexual assault. Cagney and Lacey are caught between bitter parents and a wall of silence from witnesses. No one's honest in New York City - but Isbecki decides to profit from the one exception....
