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.

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. Lewis leverages the murder charge and convinces her to take Olivia undercover to find out what the group's next target is. Haley double-crosses Benson and tries to assemble a bomb to blow up corporate headquarters, forcing Lewis to shoot her. But with Benson having successfully infiltrated the eco-terror network, she persuades Olivia to remain undercover to take the group down. Meanwhile, Elliot learns he's about to get a new partner. We're talking about Special Victims Unit season eight episode one "Informed." Our guest is Ronald Young Jr. This episode takes some inspiration from the FBI's Operation Backfire.

When the president of Hudson University meets with foul play, Goren and Eames discover a grad student is the killer. During their investigation, they meet a cunning professor who is not who she says she is. The detectives suspect she convinced the murderer to commit the deed. Bobby finds that Nicole Wallace, an international criminal, is his intellectual equal. And so Goren meets the Moriarty to his Sherlock, an attractive serial killer he will forever obsess over in more ways than one. We’re talking about Criminal Intent season 2 episode 3 “Anti-Thesis.” Our guest from our January 2, 2019 episode is Dr. Marcia Chatelain. This episode takes some of its cues from the real-life squabble between Harvard President Larry Summers and Dr. Cornel West. New episodes of These Are Their Stories will return July 8!

Benson and Stabler look for a killer who met his victim on an anonymous dating site. They arrest Peter Butler, who's been having quickie sex all over town. The detectives link him to the strangled victim and an unsolved rape, but the physical evidence clears him of those crimes. But they learn Peter is HIV positive and, in a fit of misogyny, has been intentionally infecting women. Cabot charges him with spreading the disease. While on trial, one of his victims sprays acid on his face, leaving him permanently scarred. It's not until Peter's kindly grandfather teaches him a lesson on compassion that he takes responsibility for his actions. We're talking about SVU season 11 episode 11 "Quickie." Our guest from our May 6, 2020 episode is Brandie Posey from the Lady to Lady podcast. This episode is inspired by the real-life case of Nushawn Williams.

Detectives Briscoe and Logan look into a lover's lane murder and hope to identify a bespeckled suspect from a parking ticket. But their investigation is interrupted when they come across a man who just had his penis cut off by his jealous wife (who happens to clock Logan with a frying pan). Briscoe wants to get out on time to see the Knicks, but Van Buren assigns them to a fatal stick-up. When the gunman in the robbery also turns up dead, they arrest a guy who threatens them with a burrito. Meanwhile, Lenny and Mike think the man with thick-glasses is the lover's lane shooter. By the time they realize he's got a solid alibi, he's shanked at Rikers. And why was there an entire episode that only followed the police? Because Michael Moriarty had...issues. We're talking about the classic, format-breaking Law & Order season 4 episode 17 "Mayhem." Our guest from our January 13, 2021 episode is Erin Fox. One of the many cases which inspired this episode includes that of Lorena Bobbitt. New episodes of These Are Their Stories will return July 8!

Detectives Olivia Benson and Elliot Stabler search for a baby who was ripped out of her pregnant mother's body. The detectives learn Nichol Manning was having an affair and suspect the man who may be the actual father. But the alibi of Nichol's husband isn't adding up. Dr. George Huang says Richard Manning (played by John Ritter) is an arrogant neat freak who didn't want another man's baby ruining his life. Though the infant is later found dead, ADA Alexandra Cabot says they have to prove the child took one breath to make a murder charge stick. During a devastating cross-examination, Manning gives them the proof they need: he says the baby cried before he killed it. We're talking about Special Victims Unit season 3 episode 11 "Monogamy." Our guest from our October 24, 2018 episode is Rebecca's best friend, Molly McKean, Esq. The ripped from the headlines story is the murder of expectant mother Bobbie Jo Stinnett.

Detective Nick Amaro shoots an unarmed Black teen, leaving him paralyzed. IAB Sergeant Ed Tucker (and his new partner Brian Cassidy) take Amaro's badge, while a special prosecutor charges him with a hate crime. Against advice from his lawyer, Nick testifies in front of the grand jury, and convinces them he followed proper procedure when he fired his weapon. Meanwhile, Captain Don Cragen announces he's retiring from the NYPD and is leaving the squad in the hands of newly-promoted Sergeant Olivia Benson. We're talking about Special Victims Unit season 15 episode 11* "Amaro's One-eighty." Our guest from our August 1, 2018 episode is Kimmie Smith of Athleisure Mag.

Briscoe and Green investigate a skeleton with a diamond ring on her right hand and her left one missing. The detectives are shocked to learn it's Kelly Sommers, whose left hand and purse were discovered years earlier at Ground Zero. The detectives trace the ring to a Senator's son who'd been having an affair with Kelly. Lenny and Ed learn Bradley Hagen took his mistress to dinner on the night of September 10th. McCoy prosecutes the son of Branch's biggest campaign contributor. Kelly's fiancé identifies the handbag she took to work on September 11th, but Southerlyn realizes it's a night-on-the-town bag and not a go-to-work bag. They realize it was the fiancé who killed Kelly, left her hand at the World Trade Center, and collected a fortune in 9/11 reparations. We're talking about Law & Order season 13 episode 5 "The Ring." Our guest from our July 29, 2020 episode is the author of the Shadow and Bone and Six of Crows series Leigh Bardugo. The episode is based on the ripped-from-the-headlines story of Sneha Anne Philip.
