“

The story you are about to see was inspired by actual events. The names have been changed to protect the innocent.

”

From Emmy Award-winning producer Dick Wolf, one of television's most successful creators and architect of the long-running "Law & Order" franchise, comes this modern-day take on the classic police drama L.A. Dragnet, with the hard-nosed Sergeant Joe Friday and a new man, Detective Frank Smith of the Robbery-Homicide Division investigating crimes that could only take place in Los Angeles, one of the world's most glamorous and intriguing cities.

With Friday being promoted to Lieutenant in the second season, the story shifted focused to the fresh-faced members of the squad that included Det. Gloria Duran, Det. Jimmy McCarron, Det. Raymond Cooper , and ADA Sandy Chang.
