Justin in Cold Case


Just have to say that after having watched the episode with Justin on Cold Case as a serial rapist who got shot in 1982 was one of the worst episodes of that series and didn't enjoy seeing Justin play a monster like that. As for the cops on that show, the title should have been changed from "Justice," to "Police Ethics Takes a Holiday" since they were trying to coach the killer into saying it was self-defence even though it wasn't.

I disagree on all counts.

First: I thought it was one of the better episodes of the series (admittedly, I haven't seen them all).

Second: If you honestly think that cops don't "look the other way" on some cases, then you are truly naive. We all know that not all murders are created the same. They are some murders you want the cops to go all out and catch the SOB, and then there are murders that should be not investigated as hard or with diligence. If a serial killer, or raptist, or a pedophile ended up murdered then I hope the case grows cold and no leads are ever followed up on.

Third: Actors like John Stamos get typecast into a certain role and that is why sometimes their careers often take a step back before moving forward. (ie Mario Lopez) So seeing Hartley play such a dispicible character is great, but he won't be typecast as Oliver Queen/Green Arrow.

The whole story was obnoxious to the point of what is real and not....it was simply a case of college boredome and that is what happens with many males on college especially on a spring break... I know I know it didn't envolve spring break but as I said it was just a case of boredome.... and male ego.... the thing that did stand out was a rareity in that the females involved in the *rape* scenes or happenings dared to come forward and do something about it even though it was not above board and under the radar.... all the more power to them....I don't think it was such a great episode or even a mediocre one... it just had some interesting moments.... it did not make a great episode to out do any others....

For me it was one of the most beautiful episodes of Cold Case..Anyway I don't understand, usually rapists aren't beautiful boys, on the contrary generally they are frustrated...A beautiful boy doesn't need to rape a girl...In that it doesn't reflect the reality..
