In the criminal justice system,

sexually based offenses are considered especially heinous.

In New York City, the dedicated detectives

who investigate these vicious felonies

are members of an elite squad

known as the Special Victims Unit.

These are their stories.

Okay.

Now the camera is rolling.

Hi, I'm Evie.

I'm from East Aurora, New York.

And I'm about to start college in New York City.

Welcome, Evie.

Are you nervous?

About college?

Um, I guess.

I've never been away from home before,

and I don't have the money to pay for school.

Well, that's why you're here.

And you have a lot going for you,

such a tight body.

You like showing it off?

Uh... yes, I love it.

Excellent. How old are you Evie?

Do you have your driver's license?

I'm 18...Today.

It's my birthday.

Wow, 18 today.

Ready to celebrate with a bang?

Are you shy, birthday girl?

Uh... no.

I've had boyfriends before.

I've just never been on camera.

Well, maybe I can make it easier.

Instead of posing nude for 300 bucks,

I can multiply that by 10.

$3,000?

You said you needed money for school.

You've got a pretty face.

Let me see your eyes.

Take off your glasses.

Now I need to see the rest of you.

Very nice.

Now your pants.

You ever been with two guys at the same time?

No.

Oh, I think you're gonna like it.

Hey, baby.

Dude... You got to watch this.

18 with a bang again?

Dude, breaking news: They're all staged.

There's no way those sluts are 18.

Oh, this one is.

Recognize her?

It's Evie.

Evie?

The mousy girl from Econ?

She look mousy to you?

You like it hard, don't you?

Wow.

How did I miss that ass?

Invite her to the pre-game tonight?

Totally.

Evie, you made it.

Cool.

Vodka shot?

No, I'm good.

She's a classy girl.

Don't serve her that swill.

Evie, I've got a premium brew in our bathroom.

I guess just one.

Right this way, Evie.

Take your pick.

Thanks.

What are you doing?

What's the matter?

Oh, are you shy, birthday girl?

You're 18...

- With a bang! - With a bang!

Please... let me out!

Let me out!

Detectives, I'm glad you're here.

Justin Adams, Evie's R.A. She's a freshman.

Okay, and she was assaulted?

Yeah.

I got up early to take a run.

Evie was curled up on a lounge couch, all messed up.

She said she'd been to a party where two boys raped her.

Campus security told you to call us?

No, I've been here four years.

I know not to get those guys involved.

I wrote down the names of her attackers.

I wasn't surprised to hear it was them.

Why is that?

The guys on the fifth floor are entitled d-bags.

Evie's a sweet girl, kind of shy.

Evie, it's Justin. I called the police.

Why'd you do that?

Okay, Evie...

Hi, it's detective Rollins.

Can we just talk to you for a minute?

It's okay; They're here to help.

I didn't ask him to call the police.

Your R.A. Was worried about you.

He did the right thing.

Well, I don't want to press charges.

That's your choice.

Your assailants, they live in your dorm, right?

The school year just started.

You're gonna be seeing them everywhere.

I'll call Carisi, take some statements.

I shouldn't have told Justin their names,

but he was just being so nice.

Um...

Can you...

Can you just tell me what happened?

You went to a party, right?

I wish I'd stayed in my room and studied.

But he knocked on my door.

And who's this?

Daniel Pryor.

He's one of the cool guys.

He barely looked at me before last night.

And then, out of nowhere,

he came downstairs and invited me to a party.

I should have known why.

What do you mean?

This spring, before I started college,

I needed money, first semester's tuition.

And my dad was sick,

so I answered an ad for modeling work.

But...

It wasn't modeling.

Whatever you've done before,

it has nothing to do with you being assaulted.

I think it does.

They saw me.

The modeling work, it...

It was a video.

It was...

It was porn.

Please, don't tell my parents.

It's okay. Evie.

You know what, we're gonna take this one step at a time.

They hurt you, right?

Did you take a shower?

No, the bathroom's co-ed.

That's actually a good thing.

We're gonna get you to the hospital, okay?

Evie is saying she was raped?

By you and Matt. It wasn't like that?

No.

We had sex.

She just did us both.

Okay.

She's a little roughed up, though.

Well, yeah.

We rag-dolled her,

but compared to what she's done, it was nothing.

What she's done? What do you mean?

Not to make her out to be a slut or anything,

but you guys know she did a porn video, right?

Yeah, well, we'll get to that later,

but let's talk about last night.

Okay.

We offer her a beer.

They're in the bathroom tub.

She follows us in, shuts the door,

and just goes wild.

Wants us both.

Tag-team.

She's moaning, screaming...

Like she did in the video, right?

Yeah.

Yeah, that's why I can't believe she called the police.

You know how it is with these girls.

Morning-after regret.

Anything you did that she misinterpreted?

No way.

All the stuff we did, she likes.

That 18 with a bang video

was way more hardcore than we were.

18 with a bang.

Yeah, it's a series.

They claim to get girls

who dream of making a porno the day they become legal.

Most of these girls haven't been 18 in a while.

But ours actually was.

Evie.

She even used her real first name.

Film class is over.

Whatever Evie did has no bearing on what happened to her.

Well, these guys say it does.

Because she wanted it in the porn movie,

she wanted them.

Hello?

A third of the traffic on the Internet is porn.

That's how most of these college guys learn about sex.

Carisi, stop. It doesn't matter.

Evie said no. She wasn't drunk.

She gave a detailed account of the assault,

and the exam in the E.R. was consistent

with forcible penetration.

The rape kit showed the presence of semen.

So she made one first-timer pornographic video.

Yeah, in New Hampshire.

One of the few places you can still make porn

without a condom.

Live free or die.

What else do we know about Evie?

Her R.A. says she's a shy, nice girl.

She has no history with law enforcement.

She's made no prior allegations.

It's still they-said, she-said.

But maybe not, because at the hospital,

Evie told me, after a minute,

that Daniel turned on his cell phone cam.

So she thinks that the whole thing might have been recorded.

Rollins, you're just telling me this now?

I didn't get a chance to speak with you today, sergeant.

I'll get you a warrant for his phone.

See if the video confirms her story.

Okay, Fin, Carisi, go back to these two.

Get me that video, if it exists.

Rollins, find out everything about Evie's background, okay?

No surprises.

What do you think?

You know what I think.

I'd like this case a lot more

if she hadn't made a pornographic video.

We got company.

Ah, counselor Buchanan.

To what do we owe the pleasure?

It's your lucky day.

I'll be representing Daniel Pryor and Matthew Cooper

for the duration of this farce.

That was fast.

So was your rush to judgment.

These are two bright, hard-working boys

with their whole lives ahead of them.

Save it for the jury.

I don't think we'll be taking this to trial.

These gray cases, they get so much easier

when you can go to tape.

The video the boys made.

It's... in bad taste, but not criminal.

Don't worry; It's uncut and uncensored.

Oh, we'll be double-checking that.

And you might want to take a look at this one,

the professional version.

We've seen it.

It?

Or them?

She's quite prolific,

and not nearly as innocent as she looks.

I guess that's what sells.

Brace yourselves.

- Smile for the camera. - No!

- Smile. - Stop!

- We know you like it rough. - No...

The video from Daniel's phone

corroborates everything Evie told us.

They cornered her in a bathroom.

She asked them to stop, and they wouldn't listen.

Those boys are rough.

So is this, from our sophomore outing.

Please, stop.

I don't want to.

No.

We get the idea.

Yeah, you've pretty much seen it already anyway.

Matt and Daniel's video

is of a piece with a lot of her work.

How many?

Like, a Baker's dozen on Buchanan's flash drive.

And after the first one, 18 with a bang,

she uses a pseudonym,

Roxxxanne... three xs... Demay.

Most are violent, tag-team rape fantasy scenarios.

Yeah, and unless we believe

that she forgot about the other 12 films,

- she lied to us. - So she lied to us.

So instead of focusing on what Evie didn't tell us,

I'd like to focus on how we missed this.

Well, I just started to vet her.

Well, the defense found it fast.

She used a different name on the other videos.

Plus, they're behind paywall.

Yeah, maybe Buchanan was a subscriber.

It's all moot.

I mean, if a judge allows these in,

how's Barba ever gonna explain the difference to a jury?

Because on the boys' video, she didn't give consent.

She wasn't paid, and she said no.

Come on, Liv, you know sex workers

don't get the benefit of the doubt.

That's not, how we go into this.

And I don't want to be blindsided again.

Is that clear?

Great speech.

Better headline.

_

Sergeant Benson, your office.

Which one of these detectives is your number two?

Fin.

How are your family problems?

My son is fine.

He's home from the hospital; Thank you.

Good.

Now, you're still a new acting commanding officer,

so perhaps you didn't appreciate

that 1PP and CompStat follow everything

that you and your detectives do.

- We are aware. - It's not on the sergeant.

The girl misinformed us. This happens a lot with vics.

We were just starting to vet her.

I'm used to sloppy police work, detective Tutuola.

No, it's on me.

We just caught the case.

If it is a case.

What you may have here is a disturbed female student

who willingly portrays violent sex acts on film.

Well, it shouldn't matter.

She said she was raped. We need to investigate that.

Don't preach, sergeant, not with egg on your face.

My other concern is protocol.

Why was Hudson kept out of the loop?

President Roberts had to hear about this from a reporter.

Did she?

It's not our job to notify Hudson.

And for the record, chief,

the student's R.A. called us,

because everybody knows that campus security

pressures girls into dropping charges.

It seems that Hudson University is more concerned

with their Clery Act stats than they are with rape.

Ah, so it's true.

The word upstairs is you have an agenda.

It colors your perception.

Excuse me?

This is not the case to embarrass Hudson

or the department with.

Pick your battles.

I didn't know anyone would see those other videos.

My producer said they were behind a paywall.

- That's not how it works. - So you're dropping the case?

No, we're gonna continue to investigate.

But moving forward,

you got to tell us everything,

your professional history, your boyfriends,

the kinds of sex you've had,

anything that you've gotten paid for.

I'm not a slut.

I didn't say that, but...

I can tell you that their defense attorney will, so...

They raped me.

I didn't want it,

and I did not agree to be filmed.

They think just because I do porn,

they can do whatever they want to me.

They can't.

But if you've left anything out, tell me now.

Everything I did was legal.

I signed contracts.

I got paid.

And it felt good.

I mean, these guys, they look right through me.

But they have no idea

what I am doing on set with hot porn actors.

_

Over a dozen hardcore rape fantasy videos,

and she thought nobody would find out?

What was she thinking?

She's 18 years old. She's all over the place.

And it doesn't help that people are trying

to make her the poster child for exploited sex workers.

There's a Twitter campaign.

And she's being pulled in all different directions.

One minute, she's empowered.

The next minute, she's ashamed.

She's hardly the only girl to turn to sex work

or pornography to pay tuition.

Belle Knox, Tasha Reign...

I'm not making a moral judgment,

but the video the boys made

mimics almost move-for-move her first film.

I can't sell this to a jury.

Are you backing off of this

because of the heat you're getting

from the mayor's office over Hudson?

You know me better than that.

I thought I did.

Guys, we're all on the same side here.

The real question is, can you use rape shield

to keep her porn videos out of the trial?

Depends on the judge.

I can file a motion under section V,

but it's a catch-all.

Buchanan will fight it.

Buchanan is still representing both boys?

Mmhmm.

Rollins, find out if both families are splitting the bill.

You doing all right, Matt?

How much longer is it going to be?

Yeah, well, we just need your lawyer

to finish up with Daniel.

That's the problem with sharing lawyers.

Somebody gets stuck.

You might want to use the John.

Once you go in that room...

Yeah, okay.

Come on, I'll walk with you.

It's over here. Just down the hallway.

Huh, he looks comfortable.

You guys worked out your defense together, right?

What do you mean?

I mean, you're both paying for Buchanan.

Oh, no, that's right.

You're on scholarship, right?

Daniel's family's paying. He and I are tight.

Okay.

- What? - It's just that...

Maybe that's why he wanted to go in before you.

Usually, whoever cuts the first deal gets the best deal.

Hey, man, no, no, don't get nervous.

But word to the wise, if anything seems off,

don't let his lawyer make you take the fall.

Come on.

Hey, Matt.

- So what did Dan say? - The truth.

That girl wanted to make a porn video with you two.

There was no rape.

I don't know; She was crying.

She didn't cry in the other videos.

Hey, sorry to keep you waiting.

We just went over the details with Daniel and his lawyer.

We just need to confirm the story with you.

We're ready.

Right, Matt?

Okay, Daniel said you invited Evie to the party.

Is that right?

Yes.

And he said that you talked to Evie about making the sex tape,

and she agreed, but he had no idea about it.

That's also right, isn't it, Matt?

He said that?

All right, good, that clears Daniel.

Wait, wait, wait. What do you mean?

Hold on here.

No, if he had no idea about the rape,

then he's off the hook.

What?

They're playing you, Matt.

I need a moment alone with my client.

It...

it wasn't my idea.

What?

That's not what Daniel told us.

He said that you showed him her porn video

and suggested inviting her to the party.

Well, yeah, but he was the one who...

That's enough. Stop speaking.

Why? Why? You got Daniel off.

- That's why he went first? - As your lawyer,

I am telling you to stop speaking.

Well, then, you're not my lawyer anymore.

You can fire me later, but shut up now.

No, you're selling me out.

Daniel was the one laughing like it was a game,

but she was crying.

She wouldn't stop.

I didn't get it until Daniel told me, but...

Didn't get what, that you raped that girl?

If I'm no longer your attorney,

you have the right to ask for a court-appointed attorney.

You've been dismissed, counselor.

Matt...

Just take a minute and think about this.

Matt...

You know what happened. Talk to us.

The whole thing was Daniel's idea.

I... I'd never, never met a porn star before.

He said that's how they acted.

I... I lied because after we did her

and then she ran out,

Daniel told me that I was guilty of rape,

that it was on video,

that we'd both go down if I didn't lie

and say Evie wanted it.

At first, I didn't think you could rape a girl like that.

I'm...

I'm sorry.

I'm...

I'm really, really sorry.

There we go. Good boy.

Get him to write it down now. I'm gonna call Barba.

Get a video crew up here to record it.

Carisi...

Nice work.

Mr. and Mrs. Barnes,

we appreciate you coming down to the city.

And I know that Evie appreciates it too.

Yes, thank you, mom and dad.

Evie said this is going to trial?

We have a very good case. One of the boys confessed,

and he's made a deal.

He'll testify against the other boy.

What is it you want from us?

Bob, please.

We were hoping you would attend the trial.

Juries are more sympathetic

when they see a supportive family in the gallery.

Hold on.

You expect me to sit in a court

to show a jury that I support her choices?

No, that's not happening.

- Bob, let's just hear them out. - Hear what?

I don't condone this.

Mr. Barnes...

Your daughter was raped.

So whatever choices she may have made in the past,

she didn't choose this.

My daughter...

In those videos.

That's not how we raised her.

- What were you thinking? - Daddy, I'm sorry.

I told you we shouldn't have come here.

Mr. Barnes...

Your daughter is a victim.

Do you know what it's like upstate?

I can't go to church or put gas in my truck

without people staring at me.

Did you think about us at all?

This has been very hard on your father.

I understand that you're upset,

but this has been very hard on Evie as well.

Will you attend the trial?

Bob has dialysis; I have to drive him.

I'll think about it.

Evie, please take care of yourself.

I'm so sorry.

Evie, you okay?

They hate me.

They don't hate you.

It doesn't matter. I don't need them.

I did nothing wrong,

and people need to hear that.

Ms. Barnes, we've seen some images of you

that may be upsetting and confusing.

Can you tell us why you decided to work

in the adult film business?

I needed money for college tuition.

And what I did was legal and regulated.

So despite how it may appear on screen,

you were never actually forced

to do anything against your will.

No.

I followed a script.

I created a character separate from myself.

And what happened on set was an act.

The violence was not real.

Okay.

And how was that different

from what happened with the defendant?

Daniel and Matt forced me.

The violence was real... And painful.

I said no, and I meant no.

But they didn't stop.

They took turns raping me.

It was horrible,

and at no point did I consent. I begged them to stop.

Can you tell us about your decision

to testify here today?

I knew I would be opening myself and my family up

to humiliation and judgment from others,

to slut-shaming and victim-blaming.

But I chose to send a message

that people who work in adult entertainment

are still people,

just like anyone else.

And we do not deserve to be subjected to assault.

Thank you, Ms. Barnes.

That was a terrific speech, Ms. Barnes.

Now, can we come off the soapbox for a moment

and go over the timeline? Objection.

Mr. Buchanan,

I won't have that attitude in my court.

Treat the witness with respect.

Of course, your honor.

Ms. Barnes, can you tell us

about your first pornographic experience?

It was a casting couch audition tape.

18 with a bang, yes?

Can you answer aloud for the stenographer, please?

Yes.

And subsequently, you starred as...

Roxxxanne... with triple-xs... Demay

in 12 additional videos.

Yes.

If you were doing something legal,

why change your name?

I was creating a persona, a fantasy.

A persona...

One who engaged in multiple sex acts

with two men at a time

in 12 videos that are tagged "rape fantasy."

Yes.

You didn't tell the police

that you had done these other videos at first.

Why is that?

I hoped it would remain private.

You hoped it would remain private...

On the Internet.

You say this is your choice.

Let me ask, why did you choose to make rape fantasy films?

The specialty genres pay more.

So this is about money.

I needed money for my college tuition.

In this video...

And in the dozen that you made after that,

you were thrown around,

slapped, verbally degraded,

and penetrated by two men

while screaming and saying, "no."

That was acting.

And in this video,

you were also thrown around,

slapped, verbally degraded, and penetrated by two men

while screaming and saying, "no."

Isn't that correct?

Yes, but I never said...

So the main objective difference is,

in the 13 adult videos you were paid,

but in this one, you weren't.

No, I did not want to be raped.

- I said no. - You did, in all 14 videos.

So it would seem that...

"No" means "yes" when you're getting paid,

but "no" means "no" when you're not.

Objection.

I'll rephrase.

We have seen that you are a very gifted actress.

How do expect these boys or this jury

to know the difference?

I didn't want what they did to me.

You say after the fact.

You didn't call the police that night.

I'm curious.

Is the reason you cried rape

the next day when the police showed up

because you were embarrassed

that you had been caught in a compromising position?

Or was it because these boys didn't pay you?

Again, your honor, objection.

Sustained.

Nothing further.

Oh, and, Ms. Barnes,

I'm sorry if it feels like I was rough on you,

but that's what I get paid to do.

The jury will disregard.

Mr. Buchanan, I won't warn you again.

The worst is over.

So tomorrow you can take it easy.

Let A.D.A. Barba do his job.

No, I want to be there when Daniel testifies,

make him look at me.

You want us to walk you up?

No, I'm a big girl.

But thanks.

Night.

_

Daniel told me that we were going to do a film with Evie

and that she was cool with it.

Even if she resisted, that was part of the act.

- You believed him? - I did.

But she was crying the whole time,

and she ran out after.

That's when Daniel told me that we'd actually raped her,

but that if anyone asked, she wanted it.

Does that mean, in fact, that Ms. Barnes

never consented to have sex with you?

No.

The two of us raped her.

I feel sick about it.

I'm sorry, Evie.

Mr. Cooper, is it true you took a plea deal

in exchange for your testimony?

Yes.

You were charged with misdemeanor sexual assault.

You face, at a maximum,

one year in prison or maybe no time at all,

instead of the 5 to 25 you were facing for rape I.

Is that the deal you made?

Yes.

At first, you thought the entire encounter with Ms. Barnes

was consensual?

Daniel had told me it was.

And she had responded the same way she did

in the 18 with a bang video you had seen.

Was that part of it?

I guess.

And when the police first talked to you,

you told them that it was consensual.

But now that you're a prosecution witness

with a generous deal,

you're calling it rape?

Does that sound accurate, Mr. Cooper?

I guess, but that wasn't when I...

You seem like a thoughtful young man.

These days, college is a confusing place

to experiment with sexuality.

This was your first threesome,

crossing lines you'd never crossed.

Is there a question, your honor,

or is counselor Buchanan on his soapbox now?

Get to it, Mr. Buchanan.

Mr. Cooper...

If you weren't sure at the time about what had happened,

and you have said under oath

that you didn't think it was rape at first,

isn't it possible that you're not sure, even now?

I don't know.

I mean, I guess, but she says it was,

so I think that...

Well put.

Thank you.

Redirect, your honor?

I'll allow.

Mr. Cooper, yes or no:

Did you and the defendant Daniel Pryor rape Evie Barnes?

Yes.

We did.

Thank you.

When Matt told me Evie wanted to do a three-way,

I was flattered.

I had never even met a porn star before.

In the bathroom, she was acting

just like she did in the video we saw.

Although advised otherwise,

why have you chosen to take the stand today?

I want to speak for all falsely accused men.

People believe women by default,

but false accusations destroy lives.

Seriously, I just...

I don't know why this is happening to me.

Nothing further.

Did you ever ask Ms. Barnes

if she wanted to have sex with you?

No, Matt did.

I trusted Matt. Maybe that was my mistake.

Then all you actually heard her say

was, "no," and, "stop,"

and you didn't.

She said, "no," all those other times

and still had sex, so...

Why would this be different? We were filming a scene.

But she said, "no," correct?

Do you believe that any woman, even a porn star,

can decline sex?

- Of course, I... - So let's be clear.

Did Ms. Barnes say, "no"?

- She did. - In fact, she cried.

She begged you to stop repeatedly.

Isn't that correct?

- Well, yeah, but... - You didn't stop, did you?

No.

Do you understand that what you have just described

is the definition of rape?

Nothing further.

Members of the jury, have you reached a verdict?

We have, your honor.

What say you?

On the charge of rape in the first degree,

we find the defendant Daniel Pryor guilty.

Congratulations.

- Thank you. - Congratulations.

Ladies and gentlemen of the jury,

the state of New York thanks you for your service.

Mr. Pryor, you will remain out on bail until sentencing.

Your honor, I'd like to file a motion

to set aside this verdict.

So noted.

I'll reserve judgment until sentencing.

What does that mean?

It's pro forma.

If the jury reaches a verdict, judges don't overturn it.

Nice work.

Thank you.

Evie Barnes...

Yes?

You've been served.

What is that?

Oh, my God.

It's from the president's office at Hudson.

I'm being expelled for violating the code of conduct?

- No, they can't do that. - They just did.

I have to move out by the end of next week.

_

Sorry to keep you waiting.

I understand you needed to see me right away?

Yes, I, uh, I'm a little confused,

and I'm hoping that you can clarify a matter on Evie Barnes.

Now, you're the university president,

and you expelled a rape victim.

What about the rapists?

Pending his appeal, Daniel may well be expelled too.

And Evie Barnes wasn't expelled

because she made a rape accusation.

I want to be perfectly clear about that.

I'm sure you do.

She blatantly violated Hudson's code of conduct.

She chose to appear in violent pornographic videos.

She even showed her student I.D. In some of them.

Her presence on campus is disruptive.

But the presence of rapists is okay.

I have to tell you,

there have been as many false accusations

as ones that have proved true.

There's bad judgment on both sides.

Bad judgment on both sides.

I think we both know that that's code

for victim-blaming.

Hudson University is fully committed

to sexual violence prevention.

- Oh... - We're planning a luncheon

early next week on the subject.

Well...

I look forward to seeing the cake.

I understand your passion on this subject,

and I promise you that Hudson University,

NYPD, and the mayor's office have always had

a mutually respectful relationship.

Please don't hide behind the mayor's skirt.

Look...

I'm asking you to do the right thing,

for Evie's sake.

I'm sure that you can find another way.

Daniel Pryor, please rise.

Before I speak to your sentencing and other motions,

I understand you'd like to make a statement.

Your honor, I'd like to apologize

to my family and my school

for any embarrassment I've caused them.

What happened that night is something

my friend Matt, Evie, and I

will have to live with for the rest of our lives.

I showed poor judgment.

And I know, if given another chance,

I would never do anything to dishonor another woman again.

Thank you.

Thank you.

I see genuine remorse here.

What I did not see during the trial, however,

is behavior rising to the level

of the criminal charges brought against you.

Excuse me, your honor?

I do not do this lightly.

Due to the lack of sufficient evidence,

I accept the defense's motion

to set aside the jury's guilty verdict.

What's he doing?

Your honor, this is an outrageous abuse of your power.

Mr. Barba.

There is no basis to overturn this conviction.

Her testimony, the corroborator's testimony...

You don't need to approach the bench.

Your honor, you are making a factual determination.

That is the jury's job, not yours!

Sit down, Mr. Barba.

Young lady...

I don't know if you desire

the recently popular status of victimhood

or if this was a publicity stunt to jumpstart your porn career,

but given the evidence,

there is no way to conclude beyond reasonable doubt

that your "no" in this incident truly meant "no."

I hope, going forward, you find a way

to respect your body and yourself.

No, I wasn't lying!

What you are doing is giving men permission

to assault a woman based on her sexual history.

You're setting the clock back on rape law 50 years.

Last warning, Mr. Barba.

I will hold you in contempt.

I'm making an immediate motion to appeal.

As is your prerogative.

Mr. Pryor, you are free to go.

- We'll win that case. - Thank you.

How can a judge overturn a verdict?

It's called "judgment notwithstanding the verdict."

It's pretty uncommon, but it does happen.

Yeah, it makes you wonder what the point of a jury is.

- How's Evie? - Not good.

Sergeant.

Chief.

My office?

Unless you want your whole squad to hear this.

Let me guess.

You got a call from Hudson.

I did.

They want to know why an SVU sergeant

is demanding they reevaluate school policy.

Because they expelled Evie Barnes,

which constitutes victim-blaming.

It's egregious behavior.

That may be your opinion, but it's their decision.

It has nothing to do with you, SVU, or NYPD.

Stay out of the president's office.

Does your concern have anything to do

with the fact that Hudson University

is New York City's largest landlord?

Grow up, sergeant.

You are good at your job.

Stick to that.

If you want to change policy,

get into politics.

But the last time I checked...

You're a cop.

Yes, sir.

- Sergeant. - What?

Evie's mom is here.

Evie never came home today,

and she's not answering her cell.

And you checked her dorm room?

Her R.A. Let me in.

The door was covered with graffiti:

"Slut," "whore."

She left her clothes, her books, everything.

Her computer was open on her desk.

Okay, Mrs. Barnes.

Is there any place that you can think of

where Evie may have gone?

She told me this summer

that she was spending time with friends in New England.

New Hampshire?

Hey, we're looking for Evie Barnes.

Who?

Roxxxanne Demay. Is she here?

Relax, she's 18. We're legal.

I know. We just want to talk to her.

Evie.

What are you doing here?

Hey, your parents are worried about you.

I'm fine. I'm just doing what I do best.

You don't have to be here. Can we take you home?

Where should I be?

At Hudson?

Try being a sweet co-ed again?

I already made that video.

At least here, when I say, "stop," they stop.

There... There are other schools.

Y-you went through all this

to get to college in the first place.

Turned out great, didn't it?

Once you're Roxxxanne Demay,

you can't be Evie Barnes again.

Roxxxanne.

Roxxxanne!

We're ready.

You want to watch?

Watch.

Everyone else will.

- Evie... - Amanda, walk away.

It's not our choice.
