List of voters for the quote

Lindsay Monroe Messer: I think Kate blames me for not catching Garland Clarke. I didn't work that case. I hardly knew anything about it.Jo Danville: She's been through a lot. Don't take it personally.Lindsay Monroe Messer: Still... she thinks I don't care. You know what? When she reached out to me after I spoke to her support group, all I did was hand her some pepper spray and a pamphlet on how to deal with trauma. And now I'm accusing her of murder. And I certainly don't blame her for resenting me, but I don't know what I'm supposed to do. I'm a cop.Jo Danville: You know, the last case I worked on at the Bureau was the rape of a young woman, very high profile.Lindsay Monroe Messer: Senator Matthews' daughter.Jo Danville: Yeah. We had that suspect dead to rights, but we mishandled the DNA. We knew he did it beyond the shadow of a doubt, but he was acquitted.[Lindsay groans sympathetically]Jo Danville: The look on that girl's face when she was told that the man who raped her was gonna go free... I don't think I've ever been looked at quite like that. I'll never forget it. Utter betrayal.Lindsay Monroe Messer: So, how did you handle it? How do you follow the law and still be a human being?Jo Danville: That's the hard part. Because a piece of me, if that were my daughter, that would want him dead, I have to put in a box in order to go back and do my job. Even if it doesn't make sense, Lindsay, even if good people get hurt and bad people go free, that's what we do. And it's hard. It's hard.Lindsay Monroe Messer: How do I explain that to Kate?Jo Danville: I don't know that you can. Because we meet these people on the worst day of their lives. And all we can really do for them is listen. Let 'em rage at us, if that's what they need.Lindsay Monroe Messer: I don't see how that could ever be enough.Jo Danville: You'd be surprised.
