Alicia Florrick States Attorney [hot] Link
She walked away. Diane did not call her name.
"No," Alicia said quietly. "For one dead boy whose name you haven’t even spoken. His name was DeAndre Washington. He was seventeen. He liked comic books and wanted to be a nurse. And Kurt’s 'footnote' made sure the man who shot him in the back is walking free right now."
Diane met her eyes. "He said, 'Then I suppose I’ll have to live with that.'"
The story of Alicia Florrick was never about being good. It was about being the one willing to pay the price for the truth.

"And what did he say?" Alicia asked.
Diane took the stand, her posture regal, her voice steady. "Kurt told me he was 'helping a good cop.' I told him there is no such thing as a 'good' lie in a murder case."
