The DA justifies her decision by pointing out that Karlin's overzealousness caused the situation in the first place. He accepts, outraging Karlin, who confronts Lewin. He is reminded he didn't bother to tip off his lawyer, who could have passed on the information and stopped the attempt. Wiley initially balks, feeling he is the victim. After discussing with Lewin the possibility that Wiley was put in an unfair, impossible situation (agree to pay the hitman for McGowan, who hates Karlin as well, or risk his family being hurt) McCoy and Carmichael offer a plea of twelve and a half to twenty-five years in prison.
Karlin comes off very unsympathetic in court, while Wiley comes off as a victim of a hanging judge. Unable to find proof of a payment between Wiley and Morris, McCoy and Carmichael rely on the testimony of thief and arsonist Jimmy McGowan, who was assigned to watch Wiley when he was put on suicide watch. When his wife went to the Cayman Islands to cash out an account to pay his lawyer's trial fee, the judge declared him a flight risk and remanded him.
Though facing charges that average forty-five years in prison, he was offered a deal of two to four, which he accepted only to have Karlin reject it. From there, they trace the hit to Randall Wiley: a short, squat white-collar criminal facing a fraud charge over illegally purchased and sold stocks. The would-be assassin has no ID, but Briscoe and Greene are able to identify him as Frank Morris through the serial numbers of the gun, stolen from a retired New Jersey police officer.
