Episode synopsis
When Trevor Winter, an anti-racist activist, provokes a white supremacist group, he is beaten in his own house, which prompts Child Protection Services to take away his kids. The media makes the Police Force look bad for not making any arrests and tearing a family apart. To improve optics, Graci puts King on the case. But when Jess' prime suspect, a skinhead leader, turns out to be an undercover federal agent, Jess is stumped. New evidence emerges, and Jess discovers the true perp has a more personal motive for keeping the family apart.
