AS fans of "CSI: Miami" know, David Caruso (news)'s character and his Miami colleagues are one up on the Erie, Pa. police department. They already solved a necklace-bomb case.
The bizarre case and the sinister device that killed a man who allegedly robbed a bank late last month was similar in concept to the CBS crime drama's subject.
The plot of "Losing Face," which was the series' second episode last fall, involved the use of a locked collar device.
"We haven't received any calls [about the Erie case] and any suggestion of a connection is quite a stretch," Chris Ender, CBS' senior vice president for communications, told a reporter.

Aw, jeez, not this crap again!
Blaming TV/movies and/or gangster rap for crime is just like blaming guns for crime: Stupidity either way.

I can't stand the Miami version. Never seen it, but it is the people on the Vegas version which make it enjoyable.

Attitudes of the actors are more contrived, more arrogant.

I can't stand the Miami version.Agreed. The only version they could do that would be worse would be, 'CSI-Peoria'.

Blaming TV/movies and/or gangster rap for crime You can't deny that a fair number of people imitate what they see on TV even if it defies common sense.
