Maybe this is a New York City – or a big city – thing, but I’ve seen countless families raise children without nannies, even families where both parents work. (This included Benson trusting her son Noah with his own biological grandmother, and we all know how that worked out for her.) Carisi explains that his mother raised 4 kids with no nanny, and Fin states it’s hard to raise kids while one is working. With all the heinous sex crimes they’ve seen in their career, I guess it took a murder for them to worry about a "stranger" taking care of their children. When it seems like the nanny may be a suspect, Benson and Rollins voice their worry about leaving their own children with nannies. This is just the start of how the SVU framed this crime around their own personal fears. Yes, it’s a shock to see something that one was thinking about buying that is now part of a horrific crime scene, but the comment felt out of place, bordering on inappropriate. This is one of those thoughts that Benson should have kept to herself. Something rubbed me the wrong way in the first few minutes of the episode: Benson, upon seeing one of the bloody beds, comments that she was going to get that bed for Noah. I'm not convinced, however, that this fits as an SVU case. ![]() Update: I forgot about Law & Order SVU "Annihilated", season 8, episode 20.) It’s an unusually bloody scene for Law & Order SVU, but this fits with SVU’s 10:00 PM air time. (This case is reminiscent of a Law & Order episode, “Savior”, season 6, episode 16. Instead, the SVU gets involved in a case where a young boy is found wandering the street, injured and bleeding (he later dies), and his sister and father are brutally murdered in their beds. Sasha Alexander was amazing but it felt like she was the only one who put her heart into her role, a "family annihilator." Despite criticisms I have about this episode, I still give it high marks, mostly for Sasha’s performance. I have mixed feelings about Law & Order SVU “Caretaker.” It featured a case different from the norm with a guest star in a lead role that was both compelling and revolting. ![]()
