Featured reviews
This is a frightening episode not for the characterizations of some of the people, but for the fact that we've become so polarized that a woman like Seehorn is far more interested in using this crime to further her cause than to actually get justice.
Adam Zastrow who was seen with the picket sign during the riot is arrested and he's defended by Kurt Fuller a Bill Kunstler type lawyer. But there's good and sufficient reason to believe that right wing yahoo Jonathan Judge Russo might also be the perpetrator as the case develops.
You've got to love Rhee Seehorn. A bit of Ann Coulter, a bit of Kelly Anne Conway and you've got the kind of blond ice princess the current right wing seems to just love. She reminds me a bit of my former boss at Crime Victims Board Joanie Cusack of Staten Island. Surprised she hasn't gone for a job at the Trump White House, she'd fit right in.
Our finely crafted jury trial system with its careful rules is supposed to be a search for truth. It's anything but in this SVU story.

- Quotes
Rafael Barba: [to Justin Vichinsky] You believe that Martha Cobb is a right-wing extremist?
Justin Vichinsky: Yeah, except she's way worse than the people that she provokes. Like she has any idea what it's like to be a hardworking American with her prep-school privilege and her gated Bel Air mansion. Sure, she presents as this blonde beach bunny, but in reality, she's the Joseph Goebbels of the alt-right propaganda machine and we need to stop her by any means necessary.
Rafael Barba: Hmm. Disgust, lack of control, rage. You just checked all the boxes on the rapist checklist, Mr. Vichinsky.
