Chicago PD season 12, episode 5 wasted the opportunity to fix a problem that has plagued the series for years. The police procedural originally featured both patrol officers and detectives working for the Intelligence Unit, but in recent years, it has focused exclusively on Intelligence. However, Chicago PD’s season 12 cast included new hire Kiana Cook (Toya Turner), who first appeared in the season premiere as an officer called to the scene of Martel’s murder who then helped Ruzek get safely away from the scene and assisted him with the investigation and the pursuit of the killers.
