Captain Renee Curry and Sergeant Amanda Rollins arrest the ex-boyfriend who's been stalking her, but the complexities of the case make it hard for ADA Sonny Carisi to win at trial.

L&O: The lawyer knows where the bodies are buried - literally!
Detectives Briscoe and Green investigate the murder of a teen discovered in an alley. Knife marks on her breast match those from an unsolved case five years earlier. The trail leads Lenny and Ed to creepy cabbie Mark Bruner, who they suspect is also behind the disappearance of more than a dozen other girls. Bruner's defense attorney tells EADA Jack McCoy she's so afraid of him she wants off the case. His ambitious new lawyer, Tim Schwimmer, rubs ADA Serena Southerlyn the wrong way. The serial killer reveals his attorney knows where his other victims are - because he went to the location where he's stashed them. Schwimmer refuses to break confidentiality rules and tell the families of those missing where the bodies are. To put pressure on him to say what he knows, McCoy charges the lawyer as an accomplice to murder. We're talking about Law & Order season 14 episode 1 "Bodies." Our guest is Sarah Carradine from the "Crime Seen" podcast. This episode is inspired by the so-called "Buried Bodies Case" from 1973.

SVU: Rhea Seehorn will do ANYTHING to own the libs
The SVU squad investigates when conservative pundit Martha Cobb (played by Rhea Seehorn) is raped during a riot at Hudson. Unlike other victims, she’s dismissive of Lt. Olivia Benson’s empathy. Sgt. Fin Tutuola arrests the Antifa demonstrator who held the protest sign Cobb was violated with. But Detectives Amanda Rollins and Sonny Carisi find an alternative suspect: a devoted fan who’s also a violent extremist. ADA Rafael Barba worries Cobb’s affect will turn off the jury. At trial, she seems more focused on scoring political points with the defense attorney than obtaining a conviction against her rapist. But when new evidence surfaces calling the suspect identification in doubt, Barba makes a bold move. We’re talking about Law & Order: Special Victims Unit season 19 episode 12 “Info Wars.” Our returning guest is Kimberly from the “A Date with Dateline” podcast. A character in this episode is loosely based on political commentator Ann Coulter.

SVU: Marcia Gay Harden goes after eco-terrorists and Ebon Moss-Bachrach
Detective Olivia Benson looks into the rape of Haley Kerns, an uncooperative victim and member of an environmental protest group. She suspects Haley's boyfriend (played by Ebon Moss-Bachrach) but when she goes missing, Benson is reunited with Special Agent Dana Lewis (Marcia Gay Harden, in an Emmy-nominated performance), who says Haley has been an FBI informant in an eco-terrorist cell. Their search leads to a remote cabin where Detective Elliot Stabler is nearly killed in an explosion. The investigators learn why Haley didn't want police help when her rapist turns up dead.

Haley double-crosses Benson and tries to assemble a bomb to blow up corporate headquarters, forcing Lewis to shoot her.
