The D.A.

Franks relies on the intelligence, cunning and creativity of his staff to solve the mystery behind the deaths of a married couple when he is forced to recuse himself from the case.

When Franks tries to sweep the politically explosive case of the death of a abusive sitcom star at the hands of his long-suffering wife into a quick plea bargain, Camacho insists on probing further into the wife's story to uncover who she's attempting to protect; Franks blackmails a judge into resolving the case in the most politically advantageous manner, thereby disregarding the interests of justice and the accused.

Franks comes under fire when three members of his staff and a Russian mob witness are executed prior to trial, apparently as a result of a staff member leaking the witness's whereabouts to the Russian mob, which only serves to jeopardize the mayoral endorsement that's crucial to his gubernatorial ambitions.
