Again Jimmy comes to his defense arguing that he has not broken any law and was merely exercising his Second Amendment rights. Clifford is freed. Jimmy consults a psychiatrist who concludes that based on Clifford’s actions, he murdered his own brother to avoid being burdened by his healthcare. His guilt caused a break from reality and he blamed the murder on Osvaldo and took out his rage on other criminals. When Jimmy confronts Clifford with the theory, he angrily pulls out a gun ready to kill Jimmy. Clifford then breaks down in tears realizing he did murder his own brother. Although Clifford cannot be tried again for his "street sweeping", he pleads guilty to murdering his brother and requests the maximum sentence. Clifford is sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole. Crew The series was created by Steven Bochco, Charles H. Eglee and Channing Gibson.
