R.J. Decker Season 2 Episode 7 Photos: Finale Tonight

R.J. Decker Season 2 Episode 7 photos preview “Before You Accuse Me,” the season finale airing tonight, Tuesday, October 27, from 10:00–11:00 p.m. EDT on ABC. Emi asks R.J. to revisit a police officer’s murder, hoping a new investigation can help a man who may have been wrongly convicted.

Scott Speedman stars as R.J. Decker, with Jaina Lee Ortiz as Emilia “Emi” Ochoa and Bevin Bru as Detective Melody “Mel” Abreu. The finale puts R.J.’s work for Emi in conflict with Mel, making the case a difficult assignment for more than one reason.

What Is “Before You Accuse Me” About?

Emi hires R.J. to re-investigate the killing of a police officer. A man has already been convicted, but Emi hopes R.J. can uncover evidence that will clear him.

Reopening the case is a sensitive undertaking, and R.J.’s investigation puts him at odds with Mel. The preview sets up a disagreement over a murder inquiry whose outcome is already part of the official record.

ABC’s description leaves the convicted man’s innocence unresolved. It does not identify the officer, explain why the conviction is being challenged or reveal what R.J. discovers. Those answers remain for tonight’s finale.
