Leo A. Sacco Jr. Needs to watch "Screwed" Episode of Law & Order: SVU

Law & Order: SVU takes stories ripped from the headlines.

Ya think they were watching a Medford alleged "police chief"  

????
Detective Eliot Stabler (Chris Meloni, the straight actor who is a big hit with the gay community due to the show Oz) covers for his daughter who gets arrested for drunk driving....after daddy pulled some strings and covered for the floozy!   

Sound familiar, Leo A. Sacco, Jr?   Life reflecting art, maybe?

Perhaps?


Then the daughter goes down when Judge Donnelly has had enough of the police protecting their own.

Some judge ready to come to his or her senses and arrest the son of the Chief of Police of Medford?

Dirty Cop Leo A. Sacco, Jr. has not protected the public...he protects himself.

Shameful!



LAW & ORDER: SCREWED



 and Darius brings up Kathleen’s DUI. Donnelly, the biggest ally the unit had going in, suddenly recuses herself from the case and resurrects the charges against Kathleen. Well, I can say I didn’t expect that. Still, it makes more sense coming from Donnelly now than it did Elliot a year later, since it’s a legal matter.

Olivia pulls the “product of rape” card to get Terri to testify, and it turns out that her father raped her, producing Darius. This ends up helping Darius more than it does Casey. Darius is cleared on all the charges. I wasn’t surprised.

Olivia: I have to re-evaluate my commitment to the job.

The end montage was the best part of the episode. Kathleen got arrested (and was trailed by Elliot, comforting his daughter all the way). Olivia was testifying in front of the IAB, and Cragen was getting ready to as well. Casey was summoned to Branch’s office after the not guilty verdict was read. Except for in Casey’s case, it’s about time everyone’s actions caught up with them! It was sort of interesting, seeing it all happen at once. (And seeing it snow. Why was it snowing?!)

The trial of Darius Parker begins and his defense focuses on the conduct of the SVU. He exposes several secrets, like Stabler's intervening for his daughter when she was arrested, and Fin during his days as a narcotics cop. Olivia is in trouble for helping her brother.
