"The unsub is at Anne's house and she is struggling with him in the hallway. As he is coming after her with a knife, the FBI kicks in the door. As the unsub lies on the floor, an openly hostile Prentiss holds a gun to his head and thrashes out what his life will be like in prison."



I think most people were disappointed/ amazed/suprised at the venom in Prentiss' little tirade to him about becoming someones bitch in prison...like, where did it come from and why did no one stop her?

Prentiss was closer to reality than most law enforcement shows are. Arrests during a home invasion or robberies in progress, are particularly violent. There are certain crimes where cops have trouble restraining the human impulse to choke the shit out of perps. Child beaters/fuckers, vicious spousal assaults, sex crimes, and home invasions. In Toronto in the early 90s a spat of home invasions by Vietnamese gangs against Chinese immigrants were happening, same thing with Jamaican drug gangs robbing civilians and opponents alike. The response by police was exceptionally heavy handed, deliberately so. I experienced that, and the talk by cops was an exceptional anger. When people are victims of rapes in their home, or robbed, or ivnaded for extortion, they almost always move out. A home invasion, IMHO, can be as invasive as a rape psychologically.
