Revealing mistake: In the scene where Bud is holding the DA out of the window you can see a wire attached to the DA's legs to stop him from falling. (01:49:20)
Revealing mistake: The stunt double's hairline is quite different than the actor's, when Bud White holds him over the balcony. (01:53:40)
Continuity mistake: When Mrs. Lefferts is being questioned, her glasses move from being under her handkerchief that's on her head to on top of it without her taking them off. (01:20:30)
Visible crew/equipment: While Sid is interrogated at the Victory, there are only four men in the room - Sid, Bud, Dudley, and Michael Breuning. After Bud finds the photos in Sid's trunk he drives off, leaving Sid alone in the room with Dudley and Michael Breuning. When Sid is lying on the floor and says, "You can uncuff me now, fellas," we can see a crew member's right hand holding something, at the right side of the screen. (01:45:10)
Visible crew/equipment: When Ed Exley and Jack Vincennes are driving around looking for the alleged Nite Owl murder suspects, spotlights can be seen in the reflection of Vincennes' sunglasses.
Answer: Exley is suggesting two things: to shift some blame to three officers with secured pensions and forcing them to retire; when he refers to White and Stensland though, he is saying "someone has to swing" and that they should be charged, tried and imprisoned - so Stensland is not entitled to a pension.
