Factual error: When the cops need to arrest a medical professional, they are frequently shown barging into his/her office, exam room, or even operating room. This would never happen in real life and is strictly forbidden, as it is a gross violation of the patient's privacy, and in the case of the OR, could contaminate the sterile environment, thereby jeopardizing patient safety as well.
Law & Order: Criminal Intent (2001)
1 factual error - chronological order
Starring: Vincent D'Onofrio, Courtney B. Vance, Jamey Sheridan, Kathryn Erbe
Continuity mistake: During the opening, the water bottle the woman picks up has significantly more blood on it when she holds it than it did in the previous shot when we see it rolling down the stairs.
Ron Carter: In light of the severity of these crimes, we ask for remand, your honor.
Ms. O'Brien: In light of the weakness of their evidence, remand is absurd.
Ron Carver: The evidence past mustard with the grand jury.
Ms. O'Brien: Oh right, was my client indicted before or after the ham sandwich?
Trivia: Detective Goren is loosely based on Sherlock Holmes.
Last Rites - S7-E21
Question: In this episode and in the SVU episode "Presumed Guilty" why were the detectives angry at Father Shea for not giving them any information? Clearly they know that as a priest anything that's said to him during confession is priest-penitent confidentiality so he's not allowed to say anything that someone confesses to him.
