Editor's Note
This award-winning show, LAW & ORDER: SPECIAL VICTIMS UNIT, is a spin off of NBC's incredibly popular and long running crime drama, LAW & ORDER. Starring Christopher Merloni and Mariska Hargitay (who has won a coveted Golden Globe as well as been nominated for two Emmy Awards for her work on the show) as Detectives Stabler and Benson, SVU focuses on sex crimes. Rather than spending half the program's hour with the cops and the other half with the lawyers, this series stays with the police and the criminals they pursue for most of the show. Set in New York City, the second season of the series introduces rap star Ice-T to the cast as Detective "Fin" Tutuola, a transfer from the Narcotics division. All 22 episodes from the season are included here.
