Velsco Episode over Sex Trafficking

[shelbythuylinh · 7/10 · 10 April 2022]

Velesco gets an episode and emotional as he talks with a Catholic Priest after one girl was burned as she and the priest were very close there it seems.

Over in he was getting too emotional and he unofficially gets involved only to get arrested by the 29th Precinct and Captain Benson has to go and get him out with Sgt. Finn.

Meanwhile the 29th Precinct works with them but that there was corruption inside and wanted to stymie Benson and Company hoping to release the girls and jail the traffickers.

Once Upon a Time in El Barrio

[bobcobb301 · 7/10 · 24 May 2022]

A familiar episode, but a good one here. Some twists and turns, but a pretty clear and straight-forward story which is the easy path to an enjoyable SVU, yet something they often struggle with.

Crew Scales: Pay off and Corrupt

[yazguloner · 10/10 · 10 April 2022]

These are the episodes with a striking and impressive entrance scene.

Story; It's about one of the big cases that brought Noah to Olivia and elevated her to the rank of captain: Trafficking, Rape, Terrorize... Season 16 endings Joony D. Episodes, Season 18 Terrorize, Season 19 Remember me too etc.

However, in this episode the case ties in with Velasco. That's why Olivia is in the background. She only does her job officially. Also, Rollisi is absent in this story and Fin is less visible. For these reasons, more emphasis was placed on detective stories.

Terrorized and tough has a difficult tragic case. The story is solid. The subject is enough. Velasco's struggle and the Father's power of prayer balance the tragedy of the story. Another team is joining the svu squad. Chavez's efforts, Juana's help and Cubiak's show are excellent.

It is commendable to mention the gangrenous issue of corrupt cops. Bad wounds on the big heads are being healed. However, they are more persuaded through court and judicial proceedings rather than confrontational defiance. This is what it should be.

I love the open space, street scenes and action scenes of Svu.

Frankly, Olivia Benson misses her soul, with Olivia only being in the background as the official tough cop. The low visibility of Rollisi and Fin also makes one miss the spirit of law and order svu.

Corrupt cops were mentioned in the 22nd season 7 episode and also in the 18th and 19th seasons episodes... etc.

Predictable.

This show has jumped the shark. Just rehashing old stories. The storyline has been done on here and multiple other tv shows. I knew who was the leader in 5 minutes. Yawn.
