A 15 year old girl's body is found with some signs of sexual intercourse and the SVU squad is on the case. She's even got a fake ID and the first call that Benson and Stabler make is to the parent of her cousin who gave her the fake ID.
It's tough to lose a parent as an adolescent, you have trouble handling it at any age, but the story that evolves over a six month time that Christopher Meloni and Mariska Hargitay uncover is one of a young girl who was a good student to one that just spirals downward out of control. The young lady also was HIV positive, a fact that M.E. Tamara Tunie discovers with the autopsy.
The victim's best friend is Hayden Panettiere and every time our detectives question her they get misinformation and outright lies. Panettiere who was swinging right along with the deceased has much to hide.
Meloni and Hargitay uncover a lot of sex partners that include a doctor who likes them young in Alex Cranmer and a sleazy porn producer in Matt Malloy. Another murder victim pops up during the course of the investigation.
A nice job done all around by the regulars and the cast.
