- A girl's death becomes a criminal case when a surgeon harvests her organs without parental consent.
- Two 12-year-old girls play a prank on their best friend, and hide her clothes after the end of a game. She falls down from a height while trying to recover her clothes, and she is fatally injured. She dies within hours, but her parents are surprised to learn that her organs were donated for transplantation. They had not actually signed the necessary papers for the donation, their signature was forged. Dr. Lorraine Franchella is arrested, and the police soon discover that she had forged the signatures of parents in over 30 previous cases. She had no financial benefit from any of these cases, she was just desperate to save the life of kids who needed the organs. The jury trial depends less on evidence, and more on convincing the jury that the ends do not justify the means. Franchella is sentenced to decades of prison time, while the first of the kids which she was trying to help dies of organ failure. ADA Stone feels that the trial set an example against activist doctors, while Benson and Rollins feel that they just signed the death sentence of many young patients who depended on Franchella's activities to survive.—Dimos I
