CH, a third rate show copies that second rate show, Law and Order. The latter became the cliche of cliche by having 95% of their shows end with the bad guys confessing to whatever crimes they committed earlier. (An older generation of viewers would remember Perry Mason, where 99% of the shows had the villains confessing on the stand.) Intellectual and creative death to watch much of P. M., L. O. and now City Homicide.
The latter also approves of the extra-legal means the detectives go to to 'prove' their cases; illegal searches, browbeating and even the occasional physical attack on presumed innocent suspects.
Just imagine yourself having these illegal actions taken based on some moron detective's "gut instinct"!
