  • HBO's the Wire and Criminal Procedure: a Match Made in Heaven
    114 HBO’s The Wire and Criminal Procedure: A Match Made in Heaven Brian R. Gallini Fans of The Wire know Bunk. Those fans who are legal minded may even remember, in the first scene of the first episode of Season 5,1 when Bunk masterfully interrogates a helpless suspect. I cannot imagine a better introduction to the Fifth Amendment materials in the Criminal Procedure course. But The Wire’s five seasons offer more than just helpful scenes. Rather, the show raises a diverse array of Fourth and Fifth Amendment issues that, I believe, can assist in teaching the Criminal Procedure course throughout the semester by keying all the course’s topics to The Wire. I proceed in this piece by offering (1) whyThe Wire makes for such a compelling pedagogical tool, (2) why a “one show” approach is superior to using sporadic clips from a variety of sources, and (3) then offering some concrete examples of how the clips are helpful on a class-by-class basis. Why The Wire? The Wire takes viewers into the inner-city streets of Baltimore for an in- depth look at the highly lucrative drug trade. Using a wide array of colorful characters, it treats viewers to a morally and legally complex world where police, prosecutors, defense attorneys, drug sellers and drug users all serve as compelling personalities living out the American drug war. Against that captivating backdrop is a more specific appeal to law professors—how all of The Wire’s characters interact with the Bill of Rights. Throughout its five seasons, the show provides an extraordinary number of discussion-worthy scenes that magnificently bring complex constitutional doctrines to life.
