New York Minute (Law & Order)

"New York Minute" is the 357th episode of NBC's legal drama Law & Order, and the 8th episode of the 16th season.

Plot

"When the owner of a big-rig trucking company is shot to death, Detectives Fontana and Green learn that the victim was hauling illegal aliens and suspect a member citizen's border patrol group -- but their only witness is an undocumented Hispanic woman (Aixa Rosario Medina) who risks deportation if she testifies. Meanwhile, prosecutor McCoy is incensed when the witness is physically intimidated as he tries to turn one organization member against the other in court."[1]

The story is loosely based on the Tyrone Williams case and the Minutemen. The Minutemen responded with a campaign in the press saying that the episode was slanderous and promoted hate against their group.[2][3]
