she shot him while wearing a LAPD wire

Warning: Spoilers
Part three was really divided into two distinct, unrelated stories; a wrap-up of the supremacist hierarchy and the final solution to the thirty-five year-old killing of Buzz's father and uncle at the ATM.

Mr. Calderon was Dwight Darnell's legal counsel, appearing in court when Dwight opened fire, first on Dr. Joe Bowman, then on the others. Dwight shot Commander Taylor because Taylor returned fire, he shot D.D.A. Rosen and Deputy Simms then Captain Raydor shot and killed Dwight. Commander Taylor died immediately as did Calderon and Rosen; Dr. Joe survived recouping in the hospital while Dwight died soon afterward. When Sharon had Buzz play the tape of the shootings, slow motion revealed Calderon knew the gun was loaded as he covered his face but certainly did not know Dwight was ordered to shoot him. Other video footage from jail showed Deputy Simms outside the closed door while Graff argued with Dwight; Sharon speculated who gave the order to shoot whom. Did Simms want Graff gone and who gave the order? Did Graff want Simms gone and who gave the order? Sharon continues to know somebody is calling the shots over Graff; Graff was not the top dog. She also feels Wildred has withheld information critical to solving the cases of her son's behavior and the execution of court clerk Sun and mother Ava Jarvis.

Martin Borja appears again, this time at the finish, when Wildred pay him a visit in his office while wearing a LAPD wire. Gene Hecht, found in episode 10, gives up Bill Jones as the killer at the ATM of Buzz's father and uncle. Sanchez and Provenza arrest William Jones at his house. Borja screams at Wildred how he felt about Graff and her useless son Dwight. In the words of Chief Fritz Howard, she shot him while wearing a LAPD wire, pulling a revolver out of his desk to perform the execution. A delightful ending to successful work from Major Crimes.

Isn't it always the last part to any episode where not only are all the cases brought to a close but there is usually more action than in the prior episodes. I truly liked this finish, I was happy for Buzz and happy for Wildred; I did not see what happened to Commander Taylor coming and I was sorry to see him gone from the cast, especially in such a violent manner. Recommend highly a watch from anyone.

Culmination of a great three episode arc
ajkbiotech3 July 2021
This episode is the finale of a terrific three episode arc.

A complicated courtroom shooting is finally unraveled and solved from episode 1 of the 3 episode arc.

The evil neo-Nazi brotherhood is broken, as well as another evil criminal conspiracy!

A fantastic conclusion to a grand mystery!
