Child Abuse/Abusive Child
Hitchcoc25 August 2021
Memorable episode. Two major cases. One involves a couple from hell who don't seem to care that they are abusing their six year old child. Finally, the guy pushes him down some stairs, killing him. The mother is catatonic, realizing what is going on but just taking it in stride. The second involves a sort of autistic guy who is part of a paired trust fund with his sister. She is trying to run things and he is resentful and fully nuts. The process for interrogating him is quite intense.

Wow! What's a Coca-Cola worth?

One of the best and most memorable episodes from one of the finest series on television. The Wendy and Willy story is hilarious ... so strange I'll bet it really happened.

HOWEVER ...

See this for the performance by Mary Mara as a woman being persuaded by Kim Delaney (also fine work) to consider giving her unborn baby up for adoption. Although brief, this is perhaps one of my ten most memorable performances on television. It's brilliant, identifiable, and shattering.
