ABOUT LAW & ORDER SVU
As acting commander of the SVU, Lt. Olivia Benson (Mariska Hargitay) leads with empathy and professionalism, all the while dealing with her difficult past, which influences the way she relates to the victims and perpetrators of each case.

Amanda Rollins (Kelli Giddish) has earned her place as an integral part of the team, Det. Dominick “Sonny” Carisi (Peter Scanavino) brings a fresh outlook, and Assistant District Attorney Peter Stone (Philip Winchester) joins to learn from the best and honor his father’s legacy.

Hargitay is such an underrated actor. Love her. She does a lot as an advocate for sexual abuse/assault. She’s worked on multiple documentaries.

[@angemaidment5640]

Novella how is she underrated? Everyone loves her!

[@rkidstv]

@@angemaidment5640 I think it is meant as a compliment - because, indeed, Mariska Hargitay is an amazing actress that could do any role to perfection, and she is beautiful, very smart, kind and dedicated to such wonderful, worthy causes!! I admire her greatly!

[@pokefan213]

Hearing that your attacker has died is not always the best news to hear- especially if they died without any consequences for their actions. She's breaking down crying because she knows he died a FREE MAN, and that he'll never be able to go to jail for what he did, never have to apologize to her (or rather be forced to apologize, people like that don't do it willingly) She can't get the closure she wants- which was to make him pay for what he did.

I love Olivia Benson so much. She believes every victim. She listens to every victim. She makes then feel heard. She makes them feel like they matter. She is so warm and motherly.

[@crustboy5897]

despite having ptsd from a sexual assault i still find myself watching these clips

[@ashleighrichardson1362]

I am with you, in the same boat, and I feel like I watch this show because most of the time it shows justice and compassion and belief, something a lot of survivors unfortunately dont get. But I hear you. and I see you. Stay strong friend.

[@Emmieaudios]

I do too, I continue watching because it makes me feel as though I am not alone. It also gives me strength to see depictions of other survivors.

[@hello_to_y0u_there]

Saaaaaaaame, it just makes me feel better that they actually got help

[@cvlcek144]

My ex fiance was raped when she was 7, so were my little sisters, and so was my now current girlfriend by her ex. I honestly am not afraid to kill anyone who does that to someone and thinks that they can just walk away.

[@tonyathreadgill6252]

I was never raped but I've been molested so I almost cried through this because I know what it feels like to be taken advantage of. This poor girl was traumatized and its sickens me when you put your trust into someone and they take it from you.

[@tereasdownes9793]

Rape assault molestation are all in the same thing

[@thesecutor4625]

Tereas Downes assault is the only one that doesn’t fit the theme

[@heathercontois4501]

You have my sympathies. I was molested more than once in my life. I watch this show to see victims be brave and predators get put away. I almost screamed at my mother that Hotel Transylvania isn't evil because it sows children that the monsters they were taught to fear aren't always the real monsters.

[@benjaminluebberst168]

[@landryreagan3522]

Ditto. I'm sorry for what you went through. I think that every survivor would have had an easier time "recovering" if Olivia had been in our corners. Granted, true recovery doesn't exist but shows and people like this certainly make it easier.

I really love Benson, she's a powerfull woman!

[@dalialule8112]

Gaby Garnica yes she is. She's a kind and respectsull and compationate person to all the victims. Some of you may not know this about Olivia Benson, but Benson was a baby that resulted through rape. This may be one of the reason why she's so passionate about finding justice for victims.

[@ericathewwfwcwdivastraight8906]

She is The Female Steve MCGARRETT

[@avelus5984]

Benson is the kind of policewoman that makes you feel safe, even when you just had a terrible experience not too long ago. She makes you think: “It’s okay, it’s okay. The police are investigating this. They will find the bad guy.”

[@foolslayer9416]

I never had a traumatizing experience, but one thing that I've heard is that living well is the best revenge.

[@ForeverSunny3]

Joirdy Coney agreed❤️

[@NuncNuncNuncNunc]

"Right by your side the whole time," Benson says and then immediately walks away from her. If the couch looked better with the ink stain on the back of cushion showing, I can only imagine the stain on the front. Also, a professor with a giant office doesn't have enough pull to get a couch cleaned if not replaced?

[@kurtbaumann7686]

Mariska Hargitay really invested a lot into her character and into the series. When SVU ends should probably be seen as Olivia Benson and it will ruin her for other acting jobs.

For what it's worth...I still believe Prof. Blasey Ford.

[@dalialule8112]

Ro G me too. But the government always takes the side of men. In high school I was sexually harassed by a employee at the school and no one believed me. 3 years later I was sexually harassed again and no one called the police. Fast forward 13 years later, I always have to look over my shoulder when I go somewhere because I'm worried that he may find me and harass me again. It's a terrible way of living. So I do believe Blasey Ford when she said she was raped and to scared to come out then.

[@rgwak]

Dalia Lule - Thank you 🙌 for sharing your story. And on behalf of all men, I am very sorry that you have been harassed. It makes me sad and angry 😠that so many assaults get ignored and so many victims get marginalized. But I wish you peace and strength! ☮

[@dalialule8112]

Ro G,, thank you. And I had to drop out of high school because of what happened to me. The school didn't bother arresting him. The only thing they told me was that he's mentally ill and he was doing this in other schools he worked at and they fired him without arresting him. When I wanted him arrested and put in jail so he'll go to court because I wanted to sue,,, the school said NO, that's not a good idea because we don't want any press or media attention. Sometimes I always have to look over my shoulder because he saw me on the bus once and I got freaked out.

[@rgwak]

Dalia - Damn. I'm so sorry! That guy sounds like a piece of trash. Please don't let that loser ever think he has any control over you. You are brave and strong 💪! Much braver and stronger than that coward.
