Do you think Figgis (Ray Liotta) was convicted of manslaughter?


At the end we see him standing by Freddie having helped his pal take down the community's corrupt cops, but although Figgis seems like a decent guy at heart he still (accidentally) killed his girlfriend by setting his house on fire. Does anyone think he came clean and took the rap for the arson and the inadvertent death of his girlfriend?

No... He took off with his money and started off elsewhere. Anyone who could've known was dead or just had their life saved by him lol... I've wondered that a few times myself

I like Figgis so I wouldn't be too upset if he took off. It's not like anything he did could bring his girlfriend back, but in all fairness he really shouldn't have been punished for the arson/manslaughter.

Stallone is just as bad as all the other corrupt cops in his town if he doesn't turn Figgis in.

The entire premise of the film falls apart if Stallone's character turns a blind eye...and a...deaf ear.
