Echoes of John Hechinger's book, "True Gentlemen: the broken pledge of America's fraternities" resonate through this episode and secret societies like Skull and Bones which included three generations of the Bush family, Prescott Bush, George H.W. Bush - a C student at Yale, and George W. Bush come to mind when it's mentioned in the episode that those "fortunate" enough to be accepted in the order's ranks can expect to enjoy a lifetime of privilege and preferential treatment over their peers throughout their careers including perks that include predation with impunity like the Argentine diplomat's son presumed to have.
Is it that much of stretch to think the those like the Argentine diplomat's son and the captain of the football team whose tattoos indicate membership in such orders after raping women to join the ranks in this episode do, in fact, in real life grow up to be those same ones who torture trafficked children in cages at secretive retreats like Bohemian Grove where torture victim and murder witness Paul Bonacci recorded in his journal that he was taken, as relayed by his lawyer John DeCamp on the Alex Jones show? (DeCamp spent his own fortune to win a $1 million settlement for Bonacci after Bonacci's ordeal at Bohemian Grove)

That old diplomatic immunity
bkoganbing4 August 2016
Donnie Wahlberg and partner Abigail Hawk catch a really nasty case of a brutal rape on campus. The young woman Florence Loazano is from a working class family in school on scholarship. The perpetrator is the son of the Argentine consul and has diplomatic immunity.
The Reagan family dinner has a lengthy discussion on diplomatic immunity and just why it is the way it is. A good defense for it is given by Tom Selleck.
But the Reagan cops are nothing if not resourceful and a way is found around it. There's a Columbo episode with Hector Elizondo and Sal Mineo that you might want to reference as far as this story is concerned.
Raul Casso plays the perpetrator and he is one rich privileged punk that you'll cheer when he's given an offer he can't refuse.

Blue Bloods- Diplomatic Immunity ****
edwagreen9 October 2010
The wonderful show continues with an episode regarding diplomatic immunity. The episode shows the obvious pitfalls of this system when a girl is molested and the son of an ambassador, who also has diplomatic immunity, seems to become the prime suspect.
The wonderful Sunday family dinner becomes once more a testing ground where the subject of diplomatic immunity is discussed. Frank Reagan's lawyer daughter makes some very compelling comments on the positive nature of having diplomatic immunity. Think of our diplomats in some of the mid-eastern countries with their crackpot governments.
Donnie Wahlberg steals this show with his reliance on perception. He seems to be a master at this and viewing a simple tattoo will shockingly provide other details as the culprit, or shall I say culprits are identified.
