Law And Order: SVU Season 22 Episode 1 Recap
‘Guardians and Gladiators’ kicks off with Olivia Benson and her Special Victims Unit looking into the rape in Central Park. A White woman calls up the cops, informing them that a certain Black man is scaring her son. The accused guy happens to be an exerciser called Jayvon. The police reach the scene and handcuff the guy. Meanwhile, there is another hurt man behind some bushes. The person is named Eric Aquino, who has been sexually assaulted and he cannot identify his attacker.
