Docket ending 419. People vs. Henry Shaw Roberts. One count each: Assault in the second degree, criminally negligent homicide, endangering the welfare of a child.
Busy man, Mr. Roberts. How do you plead?
HHank
Not guilty.
On all counts, your honor. And the homicide charge is a stretch.
The defendant forced his stepson to fight a 10-year-old and bet on the winner. What would you call the death of that child?
I'll let the grand jury decide. Bail, Miss Hardwicke?
Remand, your honor. When he's not promoting kiddie fights, the defendant spends his spare time beating up his wife and stepson.
My client has never been arrested. He has a steady job and strong ties to the community.
First offense, Miss Hardwicke. Can you live with 50,000 bail?
If it's cash only and comes with an order of protection for Mrs. Roberts.
So ordered. Mr. Roberts, you are not to come within 200 feet of your wife, your stepson, or your home.
HHank
Then where the hell am I gonna stay?
Rikers Island, if you violate the order. Unless you'd rather go now.
That won't be necessary. Mr. Roberts will abide by your ruling.
Then we're done, aren't we? 10-minute recess. [bangs gavel]
HHank
No broad in a black robe is gonna keep me from what's mine.
If she doesn't, I will.
How'd it go?
Sandra's the queen of denial, and Hank is a human hand grenade ready to explode.
If Cragen hadn't stepped in yesterday, he would've blown. Too bad. [Stabler smirks at him] I got a son too, remember?
I hope you die a slow, painful death! Have a nice day.
The guy's not dumb. He went to law school.
Since when was that mutually exclusive?

When God makes you pregnant, stay pregnant; when God make you barren, stay barren.
When God gives you a uterus, maybe we'll listen to your sermon.
[about a rapist who wears a god mask] He's a narcissist.
Well, yeah, he thinks he's a god!
RRivera
This a conjugal visit?
You're never gonna have sex ever again. At least not the consenting kind.
SSunny
So what, I took the money? I earned it!
Let me ask you something: was it worth it?
SSunny
Talk to me in 10 years when you have nothing: no family, no future and a dead career. How's that sound?
I'm not you Sunny, I'm nothing like you.
SSunny
Then why are you so scared?
[Benson and Stabler approach a billionaire rapist's private jet]
Hayes has a female pilot. That's interesting.
Something tells me his glass ceiling is the mirror over his bed.
Jordy is no different from any other predator. He's just better dressed.
It's called the bystander effect. No one does anything because they think someone else will.
I get that Engels was traumatized, but why kidnap an innocent girl?
Control. His parents' deaths and his brother's kidnapping took it from him; this is his way of getting it back.
A-hole couldn't get a hobby?
Want me to cut my vacation short?
No, I'm covered. I'm good.
Well, Fin may have your 6, but he's definitely not me.
No, I'm better. I actually watch her back, and not her backside.
