Charles Martin Smith: Sheriff Bartley

Quotes 

• Sheriff Bartley : [to Olivia]  I believe you're acquainted with this gentleman? Mr. Carl Dunford.

  Olivia Benson : No, I don't recognize him.

  Sheriff Bartley : That's odd. Works for the pharmaceutical company your little glee club was protesting against last week. Something about polluting the river.

  Olivia Benson : What about him?

  Sheriff Bartley : Just fished his body out of that river, only it wasn't the pollution that killed him.

  Olivia Benson : What was the cause of death?

  Sheriff Bartley : Well, we're not sure which one of the stab wounds was fatal, but I do know we're looking for somebody with a penchant for freeing willies if you know what I mean.

• Olivia Benson : [to Sheriff Bartley]  So you looking at my group for this?

  Sheriff Bartley : Oh, we've been looking at your group for a while.

  Sheriff Bartley : Here you are outside of Fitzmore pharmaceuticals, the victim's employer, and none too happy.

  Olivia Benson : Because they are dumping tons of pharmaceutical waste including estrogen into the river which is going back into our water supply and feminizing the fish.

  Sheriff Bartley : You mean it's turning them homo?

• Olivia Benson : Sheriff, you know that there hasn't been one murder in the history of the environmental movement. It goes against everything we believe.

  Sheriff Bartley : The whole world's gone loony with violence. Your pacifist friend here, T-Bone, he just sucker-punched one of my deputies.

  Olivia Benson : T-Bone is not a killer, but your deputy, Ibold is gunning to become one. He struck me in the head, hard and then he lied about it and said that I assaulted him.

  Sheriff Bartley : I'll tell you what. You provide us with some information about this homicide and we'll see what we can do about making that charge go away.

  Olivia Benson : Well, if I were you, I would look at your victim, Carl Dunford because that is a sex crime.

  Sheriff Bartley : Oh, is that what it is?

  Olivia Benson : You ever heard of Lorena Bobbitt?

• Sheriff Bartley : [to Deputy Ibold]  Miss Persephone giving you trouble there, Jimmy?

  Deputy Jimmy Ibold : A little.

  Olivia Benson : Sheriff, you were there last night.

  Sheriff Bartley : Afraid I didn't witness the altercation.

  Olivia Benson : There was no altercation! He made it up!

  Deputy Jimmy Ibold : You seem awfully agitated. Your time of the month?

  Olivia Benson : You know, I've heard how strong that blue line is, but I can't imagine anybody perjuring themselves for an ass like you.

• Sheriff Bartley : [to Olivia]  Look, I'm not gonna press charges, but it's time for you to stop playing policewoman and run along home to the commune.
