#MARCIA GAY HARDEN SVU EPISODES TRIAL#
The test proved that it was Lazarus' DNA, and it helped convict her of first-degree murder at her trial in 2012. DNA testing didn't exist in 1986, so no work was done on a swab taken from a bite mark on the victim's body until many years later. In the episode, fan-favorite Marcia Gay Harden reprises her role as FBI Agent Dana Lewis, but her integrity is called into question when she inserts herself in a cold case with a number of loose. Lazarus remained with the department and rose up the ranks from police officer to detective over the years. She returned in season 12, this time as a rape victim with Olivia's assistance, she puts her rapist in a deep dark hole (Penetration, 12.8). She and the SVU team investigates eco-terrorists in 'Informed' (8.1). Press question mark to learn the rest of the keyboard shortcuts. When we first meet Dana Lewis, she is working undercover as Star Morrison, a white supremacist (Raw, 7.6).
The detectives at the time were fooled into thinking that the victim was killed by two Hispanic male burglars, who were never apprehended. One of my all-time favorite episodes of the series is RAW and Star (Marcia Gay Harden) revealing herself as an undercover was one of the shows best Press J to jump to the feed. Harden’s latest series, the historical drama Barkskins, airs.
#MARCIA GAY HARDEN SVU EPISODES CODE#
A few days later, she went to a police station in a different city and reported her gun as stolen, even though she disposed of the gun so it couldn't be traced. She’s been an aloof-and-fabulous Trophy Wife predecessor, a take-no-bull Code Black doctor and one very surprising SVU FBI agent. Then, she staged the crime scene to look like a burglary.
The plot is inspired by a real-life incident in which detectives with the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) interrogated and arrested one of their own detectives named Stephanie Lazarus on camera in 2009 for a 1986 cold case in which she fought, shot and killed her ex-lover's new wife, Sherri Rasmussen, out of jealousy.
