Show generally

Factual error: In a real scenario, FBI agents or specially trained individuals will only use their flashlights when they need to check something or clear an area. They then turn the flashlights off to avoid revealing their position and to maintain situational awareness. Constantly using a flashlight can compromise their position by making them an easier target. However, in the show, their flashlights seem to be on all the time.

Outsider - S2-E6

Plot hole: The FBI is looking for a "very tall" guy who has been identified as such by various witnesses and by their own expert due to the entry angle of a fatal bullet wound - 6'5" at least. They send Elena into a bar near the end of the show to meet the Albanian perp who when he arrives is barely average height.

Victim - S5-E4

Question: How was a police report filed for OA's mugging in the beginning of the show? OA wanted nothing to do with the police or to be seen as a victim. He ran away from the scene when he learned a passerby called 911.
