Back in 1990, a new show called Law & Order arrived on our televisions. Was it a police procedural or a courtroom drama? The concept was both. One crime got split into two dramas: the part where the police find the perpetrator (order), and then the court proceedings to prosecute them (law). It became such a hit that Law & Order lasted twenty years- and was then revived in 2022. But that's not all- the idea was so grand that spinoffs abounded, the same idea with different actors so they could be produced in abundance. Law & Order so far has seven spinoff series, one television movie, and several crossover episodes with other TV shows.

So what you're saying is, in the criminal justice system, the people are represented by two separate yet equally important groups: the police who investigate crime, and the district attorneys who prosecute the offenders.
