SVU: Who's the perv cutting off women's legs?

Author: Partners in Crime Media April 19, 2023 Duration: 52:02
SVU searches for a woman abducted in a taxi cab. The victim's left leg is discovered in a canal, having been amputated while she was still alive. Benson and Amaro suspect a connection to a sex worker who said a john paid $25,000 to cut off her leg. The victim's obsession with body modification lead Fin and Rollins to a woman with a peg leg who gives pointy ear surgery to people out of a box truck. But the medical paper trail points to a psychiatrist who developed a strange fetish after his mother became an amputee. We're talking about one of the weirdest SVUs ever. It's Special Victims Unit season 13 episode 22 "Strange Beauty." Our returning guest is Ronald Young Jr from the "Leaving the Theater" podcast. This episode takes some cues from the real life story of Doctor John Ronald Brown.

Hosts Kevin Flynn and Rebecca Lavoie, from Partners in Crime Media, have a simple but compelling ritual: they sit down with a different special guest for each episode of this ...These Are Their Stories: The Law & Order Podcast to dissect a specific installment from the sprawling franchise. Their conversations zero in on those iconic "ripped-from-the-headlines" plots from *Law & Order*, *SVU*, and *Criminal Intent*, examining how real-world events were twisted into television drama. You’ll hear them break down the courtroom strategies, debate the detectives' methods, and share behind-the-scenes trivia, all while appreciating why this series remains, as they put it, the definitive original of police procedurals. The discussion is always deep, often funny, and fueled by a genuine fan’s perspective on the nuances that make each episode memorable. Tuning into this podcast feels like joining a lively, well-informed debate among friends who just happen to be obsessed with the gavel’s bang and the suspect’s confession. It’s a dedicated space for anyone who has ever argued about a verdict or wondered about the real story behind a fictional case.
