    L&O: What did she THINK would happen in a rock star's hotel room?

    When a college co-ed accuses raunchy rock star Clarence "C-Square" Carmichael of raping her in his hotel room, Detectives Mike Logan and Lenny Briscoe have to decide whether she's an actual victim or a willing participant now looking for a payday. Lt. Anita Van Buren is the only one who believes Julia's story, and Logan and Briscoe turn up evidence the musician has paid off other victims in the past. DA Adam Schiff can't believe Julia didn't know what she was getting into when she visited the man's room late at night. But prosecutor Ben Stone says she still has the right to say no and what C-Square did was a crime. Newly arrived ADA Claire Kincaid tells Stone that Julia perjured herself on the stand. It was regarding facts she told Claire, but didn't pass along to Ben thinking they were irrelevant. Feeling he can no longer trust his new assistant, Stone tells her to seek a transfer. Though the victim has been discredited, the jury still convicts the rock star of rape. After winning the case, Ben reconsiders and gives Claire a second chance. We're talking about Law & Order season 4 episode 3 "Discord." Our guest is Meredith Constant from the "Off with Their Headlines" podcast. This episode is inspired by the 1991 rape case of boxer Mike Tyson. For exclusive content from Kevin and Rebecca, sign up on Patreon.

    L&O: A dead baseball fan, an evidence-planting cop, and an exonerated man who says prison made him a murderer

    When a baseball fan despised for costing the team the pennant is killed in a bar, Detectives Briscoe and Green connect the crime to Walter Grimes, a man released from prison after 20 years for a murder he didn't commit. Attorney Rodney Fallon (played by Giancarlo Esposito) argues he's innocent because his time as a wrongfully convicted man made him a murderer.  McCoy and Southerlyn find the cop who originally framed him. He says the bloody knife he planted was from a different murder committed by Grimes. The prosecutors must rely on planted evidence and the dirty cop to prove the defendant was already a killer before being set up.  We’re talking about Law & Order season 14 episode 21 “Vendetta.” Our ten-time returning guest is Sarah D. Bunting. This episode draws inspiration from the infamous 2003 Steve Bartman foul ball incident at Wrigley Field. For exclusive content from Kevin and Rebecca, sign up on Patreon.

    SVU: The dad from 7th Heaven creeps on his son's lady

    Benson and Stabler investigate the murder of a pregnant woman found in a burning apartment. A shameless golddigger, she worked for wealthy coffee importer Pierson Bartlett (played by Stephen Collins) and was his son PJ's fiancée.  But those paternal bonds are strained when Warner says the baby belonged to Pierson, not PJ.  Novak charges them both with conspiracy to commit murder, but someone bribed a juror to get a mistrial. Father and son are ready to flip on each other. That's when Elliot and Olivia find a hidden camera in the victim's bedroom. It shows the killer is Avery, PJ's lawyer who has secretly loved him since college. After she races to the roof, everyone tries to talk Avery off the ledge. But in an effort to protect him from Pierson, Avery grabs PJ and pulls him over the side, where they both fall to their deaths. We are talking about Special Victims Unit season 9 episode 18 "Trade." Our guest is Arielle Nissenblatt from the EarBuds Podcast Collective. While the plot of this episode appears to be largely fictional, the inspiration for the victim of the crime may be Kitty Pappas.

    SVU: Is Benson gay? Kathy Griffin wants to know

    The squad searches for a rapist who has been targeting lesbians. Their suspect is a heavy metal vampire, but a blood bank employee gives him a solid alibi. Frustrated by the pace of the investigation, a radical lesbian group pickets SVU. Leader Babs Duffy (Kathy Griffin) has a way of insulting everybody, then becomes a target herself. She's placed in protective custody where she makes a move to kiss Benson, who says "That's not on the menu." Olivia might not be gay, but she lets their lesbian-hating prime suspect think she is. The perp's motive: he thinks he can turn his victims straight because he's so good at making the sex. We're going back to our September 23, 2019 podcast, about SVU season 11 episode 13 “P.C.” Our guest is Haley Manrique from the "We're Not Together" podcast.
