Character mistake: While in the interrogation room, Traynor's lawyer tells the cops that "they have opened themselves up to libel and assault." The accusations that the police were making against Traynor in the interrogation room were spoken statements, while libel refers to printed statements that are untrue. The correct term he should have used was slander, as those refer to false spoken statements. (00:40:08)
