Trivia: In the scene when Jake is sitting on the frame of his burnt house talking to Harry Rex, in one shot, the crotch of his pants has a large hole. He obviously has no underwear on, and you can see his "anatomy". Viewed on VHS.
Suggested correction: That hole is on the top of his inside leg.
Continuity mistake: The DA addresses Deputy Looney in court as "Detective". He is a uniformed deputy, not a detective. It would be surprising for a lawyer in court to make such a mistake.
Suggested correction: Looney is not in uniform at the time of the trial, though. It's not that he doesn't know his rank; he does refer to him as deputy when he is first called to the stand. As the district attorney, I'm sure he has likely needed to cross-examine many deputies and detectives. This is a simple character mistake: just a slip of the tongue, and a rather understandable one.
