Rush to Judgment

During an anti-NYPD protest led by Reverend Potter and civil rights attorney Jerry Guerrero, Jamie attempts to protect a mother and child by blocking an incoming biker, leading to the biker sustaining injuries. Conflicting accounts, as well as Potter's smear campaign, forces Frank to hand the case over to Internal affairs. At the same time, a woman and crowd supporter claims that Guerrero raped her; he denies this, and Danny and Baez learn that she faked the claim so as to get revenge for a previous problem the attorney was involved with. To fix things, Frank visits Potter and offers to help save Guerrero's reputation if the police are given access to witnesses. Erin tries to convict a rapper for writing a song too close to a murder, but his parents (who reveal that he is white and passes for black) say he was with them during the time of the homicide. Using this information, she tries to get him to reveal which friend of his committed the crime.
