Sarah Carter's character, Lilah Finch, is loosely based on Allison Mack, who was arrested in connection to NXIVM (the inspiration for ACCREDO). Carter and Mack both previously worked together on three episodes of Smallville (2001) (Obsession (2004), Unsafe (2005) and Pariah (2005)).
Sebastian Roché previously played a rock star accused of rape in the Law & Order (1990) episode "Discord (1993)".
