Spoilers ahead for Episode 19 of Law & Order: SVU Season 24, called "Bend the Law."
The case of the week for Law & Order: SVU with “Bend the Law” was delicate in a different way than usual, with the husband of Trial Division Chief Lorraine Maxwell (Betty Buckley) arrested on some pretty heinous charges for Benson (Mariska Hargitay) to investigate. All hands in Special Victims were not on deck, as she’d sent Velasco (Octavio Pisano) and Churlish (Jasmine Batchelor) to Maine to track down his killer childhood friend. In the process, Benson dropped a comment that may have been a window into how she feels looking back at her partnership with Stabler (Christopher Meloni), and I’m so ready for the crossover with Organized Crime now.
