1.11 Who shot Joey Salvo? (NYPD Blue)
The fifth season opener has revealed the shooter to be Lt.
Shannon of the IAB.
From Alan's summary review of the season five opener:
Having Shannon be the shooter makes perfect sense and
explains his motivation for suspending Bobby: he realized
that someone was on to his extracurricular activities,
and the only way to cover his tracks was to 1)Suspend
Simone (which any clean IAB cop would do if a cop refused
to cooperate to the extent Bobby did), and 2)Take out
Salvo so he couldn't cut a deal at a later date to give
away Shannon. Shannon later tried to cover his tracks by
trying to lure Andy alone with a phony phone tip so he
could whack him in solitude (a cough-and-you'll-miss-it
line during the Gerald/Frankie bust that seemed to have
been added in postproduction), and when that didn't work,
he panicked and made the dumb move Simone and Sipowicz
were hoping for.
