Corrected entry: When Abel and his partner are shaking down the white thug, he claims to be 1/7 Cherokee. That figure is biologically impossible. (One can be 1/2, 1/4, 1/8, etc.). (00:12:50)

Correction: He's just a dumb thug who's pulling a number out of the air; lying to the cops, hoping to get sympathy as a "fellow minority". What he said is supposed to be stupid because the character is supposed to be stupid. That's not a character mistake because it suits the character perfectly.

Corrected entry: In the scene where Abel and his partner go over to the apartment regarding the boyfriend holding his girlfriend and child hostage with a gun, they live on the first floor of the apartment building. But when the boyfriend jumps out of the window, he is jumping from a 2nd story window.

Correction: Actually the apartment building is built over it's garage. The two officers also walk up steps to get to the crowd of people at the front of the building.

Plot hole: When Chris finds the informant's phone and calls Abel, it makes no sense for Abel to answer the call: Abel wouldn't answer the number of the phone he is trying to find and get rid of in order for people not to find out he called him and ordered Chris's house vandalization. Also, he knows the phone is somewhere around the house and looks for it there, and having seen Chris get it, he can easily deduce Chris found it - which only makes his decision of answering nonchalantly all the more peculiar.

Question: What was Abel's problem? I don't really buy his wife having an affair with a white man and being reminded about it by Chris and Lisa's actions as a reasonable excuse for him going psycho. I think there was a bigger problem he had with them that may have made him snap.

Answer: He already had a much bigger mental problem in general, and not just about his wife or with Chris and Lisa. They were merely one of many triggers that could set him off.
