13. Albatross

Detectives Goren and Eames investigate the death of a respected judge Thomas Layton ( Daren Kelly ) killed during a historical reenactment of the Burr–Hamilton duel which is also attended by Captain Ross. During the investigation, Goren and Eames turn their suspicion to the judge's dueling partner, George Pagolis ( Xander Berkeley ) who exchanged coats with the judge just before the duel. He is revealed as a corrupt womanizer who is married to the respected Maureen Pagolis ( Donna Murphy ), a candidate for the next New York mayoral election. The detectives suspect that he was the actual target of the hit from a long range sniper. Further investigation reveals that the Perogolis driver, Dave Oldren ( Mike Colter ) organized the hit to rid Maureen of her albatross of a husband, George.
