But the “hypothetical” is thrown out the window when, during his visit to Carisi, Barba decides he’s going to represent Mickey-and get a “not guilty” verdict for the man he doesn’t think should serve any time.

“He won’t have the stomach to take this to trial,” Barba says of the former detective. But after AJ pleads not guilty to charges of rape and reckless endangerment, Mickey shoots him three times, drops his gun, and recites his name and rank as Sergeant Odafin “Fin” Tutuola ( Ice T) steps between him and the other officers.Ĭaptain Olivia Benson ( Mariska Hargitay) and Fin turn to Barba for some “hypothetical” advice and hope he can cut a deal for Mickey with Carisi. Nydia’s mother has a record of possession and prostitution, while her father, Mickey Davis (Brett Parks), a vet, hopes to gain custody after he finishes rehabbing at the VA (he lost his leg while serving). However, once she’s found, the truth comes out: AJ raped her then slipped the abortion pill into her smoothies. Her foster father, AJ, says he saw her thrown into a truck. This hard-hitting and emotional series from NBC's 'Law & Order' brand chronicles the life and crimes of the Special Victims Unit of the New York City Police Department, an elite squad of detectives who investigate sexually based crimes. So what brings Barba back into the fold? The squad responds to an Amber Alert for a missing girl, Nydia Davis. He’s back! Raúl Esparza returns to SVU, but Rafael Barba is on the defense this time, facing off against the man he mentored, ADA Sonny Carisi ( Peter Scanavino), as they treat the courtroom like a boxing ring (an apt description from showrunner Warren Leight).
