Duffy gave a thumbnail sketch of Kerik's unpleasant youth and more recent adventures and skewed them into shadowy misadventures, thus trivializing the man's merits and suggesting that what he ultimately did for his city and country was insignificant and self-serving. The intent to mask the story as a critical essay on loyalty--well, it just didn't make the stretch. Ripping Kerik through Giuliani and Giuliani through Kerik is a trite and wearisome pastime...

Onie's friend Aca found his mood reflected in the stark lyrics of Fight Back, the 1980 protest anthem by English hardcore-punk band Discharge: "People die in police custody/ Where's the justice in that?/ Don't see none/ Fight the system, fight back."
