Hunters (1999)

Angie Harmon: ADA Abbie Carmichael

Quotes 

• Jack McCoy : No crime, no coverup. Three people dead, and no one's accountable.

  D.A. Adam Schiff : Justice on a budget. What did you end up charging them with?

  A.D.A. Abbie Carmichael : Tampering with evidence. An "E" felony.

  D.A. Adam Schiff : Oh.

  A.D.A. Abbie Carmichael : We arraigned them. They posted bail: 2000 dollars. And they walk away from three murders.

  Jack McCoy : We can always hope they jump bail.

• A.D.A. Abbie Carmichael : Correctional Assistance Services filed a federal habeas corpus petition in district court. They want to take Sheridan back to Georgia.

  Jack McCoy : First their bounty hunters treat our city like a shooting gallery; now they want to take home the kewpie doll.

• Detective Lennie Briscoe : That's it? Two dead and one shot, and they walk?

  A.D.A. Abbie Carmichael : Sheridan could have surrendered. It was his choice how this was going to play out, not Granada and Difka's.

  Detective Rey Curtis : They had to go in with shotguns?

  A.D.A. Abbie Carmichael : Against an armed felon who killed his brother-in-law, who was ready to kill them. How much firepower would you have walked in with, Rey?

• Jack McCoy : I don't know what I find scarier, Abbie: clowns like these having a free pass to break the law, or one of our own ADAs taking their side.

  A.D.A. Abbie Carmichael : Max Sheridan is the bad guy here.

  Jack McCoy : He's alive. His sister and the babysitter are dead.

  A.D.A. Abbie Carmichael : It's overkill. But Max Sheridan is a cold-blooded murderer. Like it or not, Granada and Difka did us a service by catching him.

  Jack McCoy : A service? They're outlaws!

• A.D.A. Abbie Carmichael : If you, or Mr. Granada, or Mr. Difka, interfere with this investigation again, I'll have you all held for obstruction of justice.

  Al Festov : Do it. We'll file suit for false arrest against your department, the DAs office, and each one of you personally. We're done here.
