207 - I've Known Five Boys Who Went JonBenet (S1E21 Nocturne)

207 - I've Known Five Boys Who Went JonBenet (S1E21 Nocturne)

Getting kicked back into the Pre-History of SVU could have been jarring for the Munchie Boys, but Nocturne had them speculating that it might have served as a blueprint of sorts for the Neal Baer years that episode.lol seems dead-set against ever letting them revisit. Despite not having guest stars who Adam or Josh knew, this episode really ticked all the boxes, landing a tragic story of long-term abuse begetting another cycle of abuse. We were also thrown into a somewhat lengthy discussion of the McMartin preschool trial fed by the Satanic panic of the mid-'80s (and prosecutorial misconduct, overzealous investigators, bunk leading interviewing of hundreds of children, and wildly unprofessional behavior of people in the media who were literally in bed with the prosecution) thanks to a throwaway line from Cragen.
