* BatmanGambit: Maybe. When Malik Harris is released due to a lack of DNA evidence, the older brother of one of his victims, flies into a rage and attacks him, forcing Malik to bite his shoulder to escape, thereby leaving behind some DNA the detectives can use to nail him later. Cabot suspects that Fin instructed the brother to do this specifically to get the DNA, and Malik's lawyer insists that the incident was a setup, but Fin doesn't confirm or deny it.
