Law & Order S10 E1 “Gunshow”
“Here is an illegal assault weapon. I’m so relieved that here in 1999 we have solved gun violence. Give yourselves a pat on the back.”
Lenny Briscoe and his new partner Ed Green look for a mass shooter who killed 15 women in Central Park. They discover the suspect is a misogynist who easily modified his weapon to make it an automatic machine gun. McCoy and Carmichael learn the firearm's selling point was its ease of illegal modification. Jack charges the CEO with murder, but his least favorite judge is ready to throw out the case.
We're talking about Law & Order season 10 episode 1 "Gunshow." Our guest is Margo Donohue from "Book vs Movie" and the "Dorking Out" podcast.
This episode is inspired by the 1989 mass shooting at the École Polytechnique in Montreal.
Note: this episode deals with a fictional mass shooting of college students.
