The New York City press is full of stories today about charges that two former NYPD detectives were working for the Mafia. One of the now retired detectives wrote a book about his experiences as a cop with family ties to the Mafia. Both have worked on films and television programs. The two are accused of arranging hits and helping to deliver targets, among other things.
Gothamist.com has a short story and links to other reports. I suspect we'll see some story based on this on either L&O or LOCI soon--love to see Goren (or even Logan) lean into really bad guys like this.

Now that would be a kick-a** CI episode! Mafia linked Cops, abusing power, manipulation...right up Goren's "no-no" list! Love to see that in an episode!  |

I agree! Man, it would be such a waste if they gave this one to Logan! This is tailor-made to be an episode where Eames could shine!
We could get a bit more insight into her time in Vice, we already know she’s got extensive knowledge of and experience with the Mob, and she knows, and shows intense anger over the fact, that the Mob has cops in its pocket.
Of course, Goren could shine, as well – putting clues together into a coherent pattern, understanding how people can reach the point of doing those kinds of things – and as for stepping into them, well, there’s nothing like the combination of betrayal of trust and abuse of power to set Goren off.
But I could really see this as the kind of story where we could get a glimpse of Eames taking a more active role, in a case that falls in her area of expertise.
