Law & Order Season 16 quotes

I didn't do nothin'!

Green

You run pretty fast for someone who didn't do nothin'!

Mr. Jacobs, this negotiated arrangement with the People is something I find contrary to the interests of justice. A child taken by you against her will, returned by you to her lawful custodian in exchange for your freedom is an agreement against public policy. Therefore, I find that mandating enforcement of an agreement reached under these circumstances would be a perversion, not a fulfillment, of jurisprudence. I will not honor it. Your sentence is my discretion, Mr. Jacobs. I'm imposing the maximum time allowed by law.

Your Honor, my client withdraws his guilty plea.

That's certainly his right. He wants a trial, we'll conference tomorrow afternoon to set a date.

What are you talkin' about? We had a deal! You can't do this.

You had no deal with me, Mr. Jacobs.

McCoy

If you want to fire me, Arthur, go ahead. I'm not going to apologize for what I did.

Well then, you just don't get it, Jack. You know, you're a great prosecutor, but you'll never be a district attorney.

Real piece of work. That's Lorraine Dillon. The blonde is April Troost, her daughter. 25, IQ off the charts, but good luck trying to find a heartbeat.

You had 'em on racketeering?

And they walked. Not this time.

You realize this is a long shot?

Sullivan died trying to call me. You were right. This was personal.

[points at Lorraine's black eye] What happened to your face?

Would you believe it? A sailing accident.

No, I wouldn't.

Too bad. It's the truth.

From what I know, you wouldn't know the truth if it handed you a business card.

You're on a medication cocktail?

I shared a needle with a friend. Now he's dead, and my white-cell count is in the toilet. My life went from April to crap.

McCoy

If I were you, Mr. Dolan, I'd hate the police too. The press, the D.A.'s office, me ... But I'd hate the person who killed my daughter more.

I'll cancel my date.

McCoy

You sure?

Yeah, he's pretty annoying anyway.

There was no personal interest in this for me.

Your press conferences say different.

You arrested me because of what I stand for, not because of what you think I did.

We arrested you because you're a bomb-throwing phony.

Dr. Rodgers

If she's a hooker, she's the first one I've seen who wears better underwear than I do.

You can't protect me or my son in there, and you know that but you don't really care, so you're negotiating in bad faith, Mr. McCoy.

McCoy

I'm not sure what else we can do here. Please explain to your client that there isn't a better deal.

Your deal will kill my son.

McCoy

You understand what you're facing, Mr. Drucker, a life in prison.

Actually, I think I understand it better than you do, Mr. McCoy.

You need a license to drive a car, but they'll let anyone have kids.

McCoy

A white woman sterilizing delinquent girls because she judged them unfit to reproduce? Eugenics.

I thought that ended in Nazi Germany.

McCoy

The jurors shouldn't have to think Nurse Rhodes is Dr. Mengele to know that she broke the law.
