'Law & Order: SVU' features ICE agents obstructing rape case by attempting to arrest witness
Fox News ^ | September 29, 2025 | Lindsay Kornick

NBC’s long-running crime drama "Law & Order: Special Victims Unit" featured immigration officers blocking the police from investigating a rape by trying to arrest an illegal immigrant witness.

Thursday’s episode, "In the Wind," followed a building superintendent named Jorge Ruiz, played by Juan Francisco Villa, who becomes a key witness in identifying a rape suspect. However, Ruiz’s illegal status complicates matters after he flees an Immigrations and Customs Enforcement (ICE) raid on his building because of his past as a convicted felon.

I only watched the first half dozen episodes of SVU.

By then I was rootin' for the bad guys to shoot the crap outta the arrogant bastard actors, to see if they could keep those arrogant expressions on their faces as the fake blood squibs exploded on their chests.

However much you think you hate Hollyweird, you don’t hate them nearly enough.

That’s why those things are called programs. Because they program your mind to be imbeciles.

Dick Wolf is a sick America hating little man. He always has been.

Past episodes with the same thing, various immigrants:
“American Dream” (Season 18, Episode 20)

“Witness” (Season 11, Episode 16)

“Our Words Will Not Be Heard” (Season 23, Episode 5)

I depended upon all the Dick Wolf franchises to binge watch their reruns right after my dear wife died suddenly. The silence and emptiness at home required watching TV (which I shunned for 3 decades).

I do not agree with him, who I assume is like the rest of TV and Hollywood types. He specifically stated he will never state his political views “so I won’t lose 50% of the audience.”

I’m sure Wolf and the rest tilt their heads back at classy parties and make cheap jokes at Trump’s expense.

Never watched any of the Law and Order shows. The only police drama I ever watched was Blue Bloods, and when they started producing episodes that were based on crap that had been in the news a couple of months before, I turned it off.

It’s hard to hate something I no longer watch but I do appreciate these reports from the culture war front.

The key witness is an illegal alien and a convicted felon. His credibility is shot anyway.

Aw Gee, I’m so sad for the imaginary character who is a convicted felon AND an illegal alien at the same time. I think I’ll go post hate messages against Trump and Tom Homan on my social media accounts.

I never could stand ANY of those Law and Disorder and CSI type shows. I did kind of like NCIS, but even that got kind of lefty-preachy, especially the last several years.

As an antidote to the usual cheap swipes at Rush, Ann Coulter and talk radio, here is a scene I liked:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gt15-Urzd88

Cop: “What happened to that bleeding heart of yours?”

Olivia Benson: “All the blood drained out of it.”

The one with Stabler (Organized Crime) isn’t as bad, but SVU is totally unwatchable. Besides the wokeism shoved down your throat, Benson has only 2 or 3 facial expressions. Boring.

I tried watching the very first episode years ago and couldn’t stomach it. The special victim was, well, something I would not call special. Regardless, there is no such thing as a special victim. A victim of crime is a victim of crime, PERIOD.

Law and Order was quite reasonable originally, with Fred Thompson playing the ruler-straight District Attorney Arthur Branch.

For some stupid reason, Dick Wolf replaced straight laced, honest cops and DA's enforcing the law, with crooked, Arrogant Lawfare Lawyers and Constitution ignoring, Arrogant Liar Cops.

Wolf worked very hard to make Lawfare and Socialist Disorder the hated cesspool it is.
