Fontana and Green are baffled by a series of flu-related deaths until they discover that the victims were given fake vaccine. McCoy charges the con artist, Elliot Peters, who distributed the vaccine for 16 counts of manslaughter. Using The Third Man as an example of how callous Peters really is, McCoy successfully get a conviction on all 16 counts. While Peters is facing the maximum term of 15 years for his crimes, McCoy recommends consecutive sentences, giving the man 240 years in prison. McCoy successfully argues for this and the judge sentences Peters to the requested term.
