LAW & ORDER: TRIAL BY JURY --(10:00PM-11:00PM) --(TV-14)

"Truth Or Consequences"

PROSECUTORS FACE THREE COMMON SUSPECTS IN SEARCH OF YOUNG WOMAN'S MURDERER -- Peter Gerety (HBO's "The Wire") guest stars as Dean Conners, the court appointed defense attorney. After a young woman is raped and murdered, A.D.A.s Kibre (Bebe Neuwirth) and Gaffney (Amy Carlson) are stymied by a triangle of suspects -- three friends, including a rich boy Justin (guest star Warren Blosjo), a bad boy Carter, (guest star Adam LaVorgna) and the victim's ex-boyfriend Danny (guest star Ebon Moss-Bachrach). As the prosecutors try to turn one against the other, they wonder who's playing whom. But when Danny seems the least likely to lie, Kibre wants to make a deal with him but she worries he might be manipulating the facts to gain the jury's sympathy. Fred Dalton Thompson also stars.
