That wasn't our inspiration, but I guess it works...

Murphy (and Conway, who shared a scene in Volume 2 where Conway refused to give Miranda access to police files and Murphy snuck her in) get their names from elsewhere...

Murphy is named as a traditional Irish cop in Boston, but also is an homage to the 1978 Superman movie where the cop sees Superman, and his superior thinks he's drunk and tells him to go back to Murphy's Bar.

Conway is named after a high school friend of mine who went on to join the NYPD.

I didn't really figure it was, I just found it to be an amusing coincidence. :D
