The hotel clerk, the neighbors, his roommate of three years... no one knew a thing about the dead young man in the hotel room -- not even his real name, or where he worked. The man lay fallen back on the bed, eyes fixed to the ceiling, a hypodermic needle in his arm. "How did this guy die?" I asked the cop. "Dirty drugs." I learned later that he had been a police informant, New York City

At night in a police station, the minors are set out of the cells. Mostly small-town teenage runaways, still wearing their mothers' lipstick, are picked up at night either by the police or pimps. "These girls in the picture are lucky; the pimps haven't gotten to them yet," said the fatherly officer. "They sleep the night here and in the morning we turn them over to the social workers," New York City

Homicide in the garage of a lavish apartment building. This had all the markings of a Mafia killing. It was explained to me that the Mafia hires skilled lawyers to advise on such things. The man had been shot three times in the back of the head. In order to convict, the state would have to find the three guns, the three men that did the killing, and then prove which of the three bullets actually killed the man, and who fired which gun, New York City
