A young party girl gets herself murdered and her boyfriend Brady Corbet is eventually arrested for the crime by Mariska Hargitay and Christopher Meloni. But before she died she had anonymous sex with young and spoiled Brian Geraghty and he turns out to be a carrier of the AIDS virus. And he's spreading it quite indiscriminately and knowingly.
Here's where Medical Examiner Tamara Tunie and her office come into play. She's found Geraghty and his disease in any number of other people and even with anonymous testing it's enough for him to be charged with serial rape. Attempted murder is far more difficult to prove, but Geraghty with his attitude is trying to make it as easy as possible.
Jack Larson whom I so well remember from my youth as Jimmy Olson on the Superman series plays Geraghty's grandfather. A truly broken man who for all his wealth is about to really lose all that he really cares about.
AIDS stories have been done on SVU before and this one seems to be braking no new ground. Still the episode is well directed and acted.
