Law & Order: Special Victims Unit: Season 11, Episode 17 - ProjectFreeTV

11 - 17: Disabled

The detectives are called in to investigate when Cara Raleigh (Lisa Arrindell Anderson), a disabled opera singer with multiple sclerosis who cannot speak, is found by her bus driver after she is not at the bus stop, beaten and raped in her home. Her sister, Janice (Jill Scott) and nephew Damien (Quinton Aaron) who take care of her are soon suspects when video footage is found showing Janice physically abusing her and Damien's alibi does not check out. Cara eventually reveals that Tony Griegs (Ralph Byers), the bus driver, was the rapist but is put in a nursing home by Janice and becomes unwilling to cooperate. Benson manages to persuade her to stand trial and when ADA Blaine (Teddy Sears) asks if she can point to her rapist, she successfully points to Griegs.
