An interesting look at police procedures, but it just doesn't add up!

Warning: Spoilers
When the story begins, Julie has apparently been attacked by a man in her own home. It seems that her husband was working late and someone came in and beat her badly*. Now the police are asking her all about the attack, though she is able to recall much of the event...much of which could be because it was very dark and she never got a good look at the guy. The only clue is that she bit the attacker's gloved hand.

As for the police, they seem rather unprofessional. At times, they grill Julie horribly and they put a lot of pressure on her to say more...even though she most likely can't. In fact, it makes you wonder if some cases in the news are like this...where victims are pressured so hard that they might identify the wrong person.

While the twist in this one seems interesting, it also has a HUGE plot hole....the bitten hand. In other words, the solution to the case really doesn't pan out and left me confused. It really doesn't make any sense and as wes-connors said, "...it doesn't add up".

*While this sounds like a rape case, the word and words like it are not used. The notion of someone breaking in just to beat up a stranger seems odd...but the show was constrained by network standards, which wouldn't at the time allow making it a sexual assault.
