The second episode of Procedural Veneration, where investigate the Law & Order that lasted longer than the original, Law & Order: SVU. Will we like it better? Will we still be confused by our judicial system? The answers to both are uncertain.

But we watched the best (S7 E3 911), worst (S16 E14 Intimidation Game), and median (S11 E8 Turmoil) rated episodes to find out.

Content Warnings:

3:50 - 5:50: True Crime, Central Park Strangler

5:50 - 1:12:29: Messed Up Sexual Violence, Often Against 'Special Victims' (ya SVU stays true to its namesake)

We also recognize that crime procedurals often are a form of "Copaganda" by portraying civil rights violations and other unlawful actions by representatives of the law in a positive light.

Thank you to Jacob Krutulis for our theme song!
