Amy Brenneman: Amy Gray

Quotes 

• Amy Gray : [to Congressman Hallett]  You politicians. You feed this hysteria for quick and easy solutions. Well, these are our children and in my opinion as a juvenile court judge, anyone who uses them as political fodder for some self-serving cynical law and order platform. What is wrong with you? Yes, yes, I could tell you stories: a child kills her stepfather, a child blows his sister's head off with a shotgun, a white child kills a black child in a fistfight, a child brings a .38 to school. Now you would have all these children tried as adults in criminal court, but I can tell you I have looked into their faces, not at statistics or our tabloid clippings as close as I am to you. And they are as obviously children as you are an opportunistic demigod.

  Bill Mallory : Well, Congressman Hallett, I'd say Judge Amy just slayed your ass on TV.
