A main character suffers from trauma caused by domestic violence; no graphic scenes. A minor character is shown with bruises from domestic abuse.

The first character to die is in fact a black man. However, this isn't the "black guy dies first" trope: he is not a "token black guy", since all main characters of the series are black. (He also dies of natural causes at an old age.)

Police violence is a recurring theme, but it certainly is not glorified.
