I had intended on watching the newest Ghost Hunters International episode last night but, since there was a new Law & Order SVU on at the same time, I gave in to my wife’s wishes and watched that with her instead. Fortunately, the episode, entitled Pop, wasn’t too bad.
Basically, the episode focused on the death of a young boy who was apparently injured while taking part in a betting ring that involved young children fighting (something that apparently is not
illegal if the kids consent to it). While investigating the death, the detectives meet another young boy and his mother; both of which are obviously being abused by the step dad; though neither one of them will come clean about it.
Overall, the episode was somewhat predictable.
But, there were a couple things I did like about it.
For one, I loved how Stabler first gets accused of beating up the step dad then, when the boy apparently murders the guy ...
