Very good actor, but a but of a sanctimonious a-hole as a real life human as I had the misfortune of discovering. Only professional actor I've ever dealt with for more than a few seconds and I do wonder if those qualities aren't somehow related.
7:28 There are two long pauses right after the outburst, and the lack of a need for words is so powerful, and the problem is I don't think you would see that in a TV show today. Every moment in a TV show has to be filled with some kind of dialogue or background music.
I know it's a fictional show with a fictional ship but the USS McKinley was actually the USS Mount Mckinley, a ship sold for scrap in 1979 and served in World War 2, the Korean War and the Vietnam War. And that has been today's Naval fact for Law and Order Conduct Unbecoming.

If a crime occurs off of a federal installation then the crime has multiple jurisdictions. Service members can then be tried by both the feds under the UCMJ and the local laws. Though many times either the military or locals will decide to let the other handle it depending on varying factors that doesn't always happen. Unlike in most cases being tried for the same crime by the military and the local jurisdiction does not create double jeopardy so the service member can be tried, convicted, and punished for the same crime. Usually things like that are comparatively minor compared to murder such as drunk driving or domestic violence if they were committed the crime off base. Basically if you are in the military make sure you do not commit crimes off base unless you want to get hammered by both the military and civilian law enforcement.
Its such a forced "you cant handle the truth!" moment. Stone barely said anything to justify him snapping into "she deserved it", the defense lawyer would never let him take the stand if hes that fragile.
A defense lawyer can advise you on whether or not you should take the stand* but they cannot make the final decision for you and they cannot keep you off the stand if you want to testify.

The older you get the more you appreciate Mr. Moriarty's acting and interpretation of his character on L&O. A true gem.

Pssssh. I asked around. You're just a mealy-mouthed milquetoast. Pssssh.
@@tedraab5914he doesn't seem like he's acting lol
Ugh, I loved Ben Stone. Even when he was pissed off, he was almost always so strategic and cunning.
That, ladies and gentlemen, is what we call a confession.
Perry Mason couldn't have done better.
Is that Carol Hathaway From ER
Haha… love how the defence lawyer stood up, but then had to say silent anyway… because he didn’t have legal grounds to object to Ben’s questions! 😛

I'd like them to start playing these early episodes more often
Me too!
0:47- that bit there is why Ben Stone is my hero.
That actor playing the captain is also the guy who Plays Henry Regan in Blue Bloods
I thought the same!!!!!
Also played Claire's stepdad once.
and Captain Janeway's dad in star trek
Oh the grandfather
Len Cariou that’s his name
Such a great episode. I think that was one the first eps to get me into the show, in fact! :)
I love this early episode of Law & order specially season 1 to 3
00:47 why can't I ever say anything this cool at the exact right moment?
Lol six weeks? I laughed when I first saw this episode and I laughed today!
The wonderful Len Cariou
You can pinpoint the exact moment the Captain realises he f***ed up
It's sad what happened to Mr. Moriarty, the show certainly wasn't the same without him.
absolutely he had such passion where McCoy had no morals and was all about winning at anyones expense
@@johnwest194 What? McCoy has morals.

@@JoybuzzerX sometimes he crossed the line. All he cared was to win
@@lmc2664 I think Moriarty had that issue, he quit because he got a witness killed
This was Based on the 1991 Tailhook scandal. Unlike the real life scandal, we got some actual justice in this episode.
Oh bullshit.
As i say in another clip even the Navy can't avoid the justice
You referring to the episode where the lieutenant (I think that’s her rank) had 5 downs?
@@jexelbur6872 Yeep that cap, it was another dealing with the Navy
So much for military bearing...Part played perfectly👌🏾
I guess this episode aired before the tv show ER when we first saw Nurse Hathaway
Always love seeing George Coe show up!
Wow, a year before A Few Good Men, but I definitely get vibes of that from this. Wonder if it was the inspiration? 😄
I heard that it was inspired by the Tailhook scandal.
Actually the movie was originally a play on Broadway that came out in 1989, written by Aaron Sorkin. He then worked his screenplay into the movie years later.
I loved her on the Hot Zone as Colonel Nancy Jaax (2019, National Geographic miniseries)
He ( The Officer) in the first few seconds speaks The Truth to Power.
I remember when trolls had some imagination and wit. Now you’re just swivel-eyed crackpots peeing in alleyways and shouting at the wind.
Only problem I see in the dialogue is the the ensign would have answered yes sir or no sir. It would be ingrained into him from his training.
1:49 I can't understand what he said.
He said "thank you" to the witness
Im VERY determined to watch the early episodes of LAW and Order but on Peacock There are seasons from 13-22 When will Peacock add Seasons 1-12
Decisions like that are driving people back to the high seas. I bought into streaming as a great replacement for piracy, but companies are trying their hardest to make their services worthless.
Wish season 3 was available on youtube!!
The future Mrs Doug Ross!
Or rather, the Future Mrs Alicia Florrick that also features her ex-husband.
How did this case end up in civilian court, just curious?

He’s not fragile, he’s outraged that his career got stalled and he is the one responsible for it stalling.
I think Stone said the word "impotence" deliberately, knowing it would get a reaction..
Great acting!!

Judge should’ve accepted the defense objection, that was badgering
I hear the defendant is an excellent barber
The meat pies his downstairs neighbor serves are to die for.
4:02-the juror in the brown jacket in the back row looks familiar.
I like the giant fake choppers on the Captain.
Why wouldnt this be in a court martial?
Good question. Military personnel are under UCMJ, and not NY state law.

The crime happened within state jurisdiction, not on federal land.
He's a navy man, he only cares about seamen, seamen, seamen, seamen... lots and lots of seaman
and how to collect so much seaman into vessels and protect it

That ensign kid certainly had a learning disability. Or he was from rural Alabama ... the same thing really

WHOOOOOOOO..... DOGGY!!! 🤘🤘🤘🤘
7:53 a separate 1
❤❤❤❤❤❤
Didn't the Captain also play Claire Kincaid's step-dad?
2:12 5:47
Captain “Bunker”
I doubt a civilian court can try military personnel
Sure, they can if a crime is committed off base.
The local military authorities can insist on the case being handled by the military. But politics and public relations come into play. A JAG officer looking up the dead woman's file likely saw that she'd had an issue with that captain, that he was present at the time of the murder. And the press would eventually find that out, too, so the Navy handling the investigation would make things look like a cover-up.
Why not? 😂
