Jolene Castille : [to Rollins] Where are you from, honey? Georgia? How'd they put you up to this charade?
Amanda Rollins : Excuse me?
Jolene Castille : We both know if we were down home, I'd be getting a medal.

Rafael Barba : [to Jolene] On the night you saw Mehcad Carter, did you see a field hand, a jungle animal or just a boy trying to make his way home?
Ben Cohen : Objection.
Jolene Castille : No, I want to answer that. I saw a hooded man following me. I told him to back off, and he came through my gate.
Rafael Barba : So if it had been a white man who was walking behind you, would you have told him to get back? Would you have pulled your gun?
Ben Cohen : Objection.
Jolene Castille : If it was a white boy, I wouldn't have been afraid.
Rafael Barba : So, let's be clear. Mehcad Carter didn't have to do anything. He didn't have to say anything. He just had to be a black boy standing on your sidewalk and that gave you the right to shoot him?
Jolene Castille : That's not what I said.
Rafael Barba : Isn't it? Nothing further.

Jolene Castille : [to Olivia] I was afraid for my life.
Olivia Benson : He was 16.
Jolene Castille : He was 6-foot tall and he was coming after me. You're a cop. You've known what it's like to be a woman, alone, vulnerable.
Olivia Benson : He wasn't a rapist. He was just a boy.
Jolene Castille : I know, I know. I don't have any children. My restaurants are my babies. God, the look in his parents' eyes... That boy is dead and there's not anything I can do about it. I'm sorry.
