Video footage showed the officer escorting several of the alleged victims into a closed room and his partner appearing to stand guard outside. (Episode 22: "Intersecting Lives")
  2. When DNA evidence found on a murder suspect leads to a familial match, detectives force to try and obtain DNA samples from several members of the family to identify the killer. (Episode 8: "Melancholy Pursuit")
  3. A contestant on a reality dating show claims to have been raped by another contestant. Because so many of their activities were being filmed, detectives were able to find video footage showing the accused was in a different place at the time of the attack. (Episode 21: "Assaulting Reality")
  4. A series of attacks occur in an area near a shelter, and the attacks match the specifics of similar crimes committed by an ex-con living in the shelter, so one of the SVU detectives goes undercover at the shelter. (Episode 19: "Sheltered Outcasts")
