And I think here's the worst part - the girl lied on the stand. And when Stone talked to her afterwards, she more or less said she didn't care. Stone tried to get her to see she didn't understand what the situation was, but in a way, the girl understood enough. She understood enough to say that she wasn't going back into foster care. She understood enough to say she refused to go back to the foster mother. She wanted someone to love her, and this woman did. That was all that mattered to her. I share Stone's concern. The woman here wasn't stable emotionally. But she could have been worse. They did a "repeat" of this in SVU. Adopted girl ran away, and during the course of the investigation, Benson and Stabler learned the girl underwent cosmetic surgery and had a tracking chip implanted. Why? Years ago, the parents lost their daughter and she was believed to be dead. Turned out she was kidnapped, but still alive, but that's not relevant for what I'm trying to say. During interrogation, the mother said a name and said she loved her. The name was the name of their missing daughter, not the adopted one. The father admitted he knew what his wife was doing was wrong, but I think he also said that his wife had been on the verge of a complete mental and emotional collapse, and allowing his wife to pursue this "fantasy" of shaping the girl into their missing daughter was the only thing that kept her from going over the edge. He admitted she never got over the disappearance of their daughter. Did he admit that his wife wasn't fit to adopt another child? I don't recall for certain, but I think he did.

IANAL. A lot of time in law, you have to prove mens rea - you have to prove there was an intent to do wrong. Additionally some states have good samaritan laws - you were in a locked car, passed out and unresponsive with the engine running and I broke the window to get to you. I'm not going to be found guilty of property destruction even if you were just napping - I had a clear reason to be concerned that you were in diabetic shock, and so I acted to save your life. Now, this may not absolve her of the crime in the episode, but it would certainly be interesting for not only the jury but also for the judge, in determining guilt and in sentencing respectively. For a jury, it could make them unwilling to find her guilty of the worst charge and the jury may wish to convict her of a lower charge - if they are allowed to do so - if they're not allowed to lower the charge, they may opt to just find her not guilty. And then there is the final possible angle - a DA may be unwilling to go to court with a VERY public case where it'll come out that the teacher was trying to protect the kid from an abusive guardian AND the kid was happy while with the teacher. That might look very bad for the DA and result in them not being re-elected. As such, they may wish to look past the law and settle on the teacher agreeing to counselling and doing some community service. The real problem with this episode? I find it hard to believe that the teacher all by herself built such an elaborate hidden hallway AND room in her downstairs (wiring, hanging a door and so on. Where did the AC power come from?)

I honestly kinda feel the conflict legally here. A lot of it is future decisions based on rulings like this. On the one hand you had a girl in a better situation with the kidnapper. On the other, if you let the kidnapper get away with it it opens a can of worms allowing for the kidnapping of children so long as a better quality of life is presented. And then it becomes a question of where that line is drawn. Is it determined by the kid? By an agency with certian criteria? A subjective improvement on quality of life? I have to side with the prosecutors on this show since its such a lose-lose situation. With the punishment of the kidnapper possessing less overall harm in total.

The best of law and order

I'm surprised the defense attorney didn't use her psychiatry to confuse and shame Kincaid into giving up. (Note: she portrays the mother of Leonard Hofstadter in The Big Bang Theory)

Love this show

Omg the lady’s lawyer is Leonard’s mother from Big Bang theory. Without the glasses

Man the older seasons hit different

Thank you for the video

I didn't know Sheldon's mother was also a lawyer.

What about Law And Order SUV? Crimes concerning gas-guzzling cars and their fuel- piggish owners. Terrific show!

The Great Christine Baranski ❤

I see Leonard Hofstetters mom was a lawyer before she became a psychologist. (Big bang theory)😅

please god ramp up uploads during this epidemic lol

The little girl later on played Fiona Reed, the perpetual student, in the season 13 episode Shangri-La in 2002.

Don't be shy.. upload the full episodes

If she was trying to save the child she wouldn't have her locked up in a hidden room, she wouldn't hide her at all if she was really concerned about the child's well being

That’s my little homie from Ghostwriter and the Richie Rich movie 🍿.

In this case, I don't believe she endangered this child. Custodial interference, Ok. But why did she interfere? She definitely needs therapy, but jail and or prison time? I don't think so.

Ok...child not endangered. But you can’t just take someone else’s kid and stash them in your basement! That’s still a crime, deserving punishment.

She clearly wasn’t seeing Wendy for who she was she was just a replacement for her daughter she’s delusional and therefore a danger to Wendy if she really had Wendy’s best interest at heart she would have reported to the authorities what was happening. She did it for her own selfishness to use Wendy to replace the child she lost .

@@minwellitsanicknamebegrate2531 Something else to consider. Look at the foster mother the state assigned the girl. She could be thinking that the state doesn't care or they wouldn't have assigned the girl to such a boob. I don't think the state realized how much of a boob the woman really was, but she, this woman, who abducted her was 50 times better as a parent than that foster 'mother'. Does that make abducting her OKAY? Not in the least, but it does, I think, make it understandable.

You should if that child is being abused.

This was a bittersweet episode

Ah this is what Mr. Big doing when Carrie isn't around.

John Mulaney was on point!

Even if she did do a good thing taking her away from the abuse they’d be a fool to not see that she isn’t any better. Just talking to her and the child you see little bits of the truth shining through. She took that kid because she was the same age as her daughter, looked similar to her/could pass as hers and was in a bad enough position to pick her. She wants her to be Crystal not Wendy she literally told the therapist “nobody does that to crystal” but that’s not even the child in question.

Yet she's still better because she never hurt her. Your missing the point. Abuse to not abuse. Im sure anyone who's getting abused doesn't care as long as they are not dealing with that anymore. I mean seriously, do you even listen to yourself when you are comparing?

@@kva5751 I stand by that. In the long run the child could either just give in and become Crystal as they want her to be or she will grow up with identity issues. The underlying issue is that they didn’t save her because they wanted to give a child a new beginning out of the kindness of their hearts but for the fact that she’s almost a spitting image of what they lost. What happens when she no longer wants to be Crystal for them? But that’s just my opinion.

@@waitwhotfiscleo I agree with you. It is not a save or sane place for the girl.

Stephi Lineburg, who played Wendy in this episode, also played Fiona Reid in a later season/episode, "Shangri-La". Thought she looked familiar! You can find clips of those later episodes on the channel too.

this reminds me so much of that one episode of little house on the prairie

2:22 Diane Lockhart when she was a young lawyer :c

Man John Mulaney wasn't kidding about these shows. For God's sake man stop loading up your milk crates for five minutes when the fucking cops are talking to you XD

Omg they were so young 😂😂😂😂 Makes me feel so old.

I don't understand, she as a licensed authorized childcare practitioner, she had the ability to alert authority instead.

She was crazy in the good way 😂

Richie Rich is gonna be pissed lol

love the original series
