Police vetting should [take place] every one to two years. They should go in for a psychological, to see if they're burned out, see if they've been traumatized. If they're having a hard time, help them!

Hailey [as a character] was born when I left the courtroom and moved to New York for Cochran and Grace, my TV show with Johnnie Cochran. I moved with two boxes of clothes, a curling iron, and $300; I didn't know a soul in the city, so I would come home at night and I'd be all alone and just write. I missed the courtroom and [what led me to the courtroom] so much I wrote about it. After my fiancé Keith's murder, I had never thought I would have children - I thought that it was not God's plan for me to have a family.

I was 47 when I got pregnant. I'd been trying for a couple of years and thought it would never happen.

My father was a railroad man his entire life; 43 years for Southern Railroad.

Dash cams and body cams should be standard operating procedure.
