Law & Order: New Orleans

"In the criminal justice system of New Orleans, the people are represented by two separate yet equally important groups: the New Orleans Police, who investigate crime, and the District Attorney's office, who prosecute the offenders. These are their stories."- The opening narration by Steven Zirnkilton.

Law & Order: New Orleans is an American police procedural and legal drama television series, adapted as a spin-off of the long-running crime drama Law & Order.

Set in New Orleans, Louisiana, the series follows a two part approach. When a crime is committed, the victims are represented by two separate yet equally important groups: the New Orleans Police Department, who investigate the crime, and the District Attorney's Office, who conduct the people's case against the offenders in the trial. In every episode, the first half hour focuses on the investigation by the detectives, followed by the second half the of episode focusing on the prosecution of the offenders by the assistant district attorneys.

In the style of the original Law & Order, episodes are often "ripped from the headlines" or loosely based on a real crime that received media attention.

Investigating the crimes are a team of elite detectives, the Major Criminal Case Investigation Squad (MCCIS), who all report to their ranking captain. It is their job to investigate the crime, collect evidence, interview witnesses and then, when the evidence points to a suspect or suspects, place the suspect(s) under arrest. The matter is then taken over by the prosecutors of the New Orleans District Attorney's office. They discuss deals, prepare the witnesses and evidence and conduct the people's case in the trial.

Both teams work with the Medical Examiners Office, Crime Lab and psychiatrists from both the police department and DA's office.
