- In the criminal
justice system,

sexually-based offenses

are considered
especially heinous.

In New York City,

the dedicated detectives
who investigate

these vicious felonies
are members of an elite squad

known as
the Special Victims Unit.

These are their stories.

- Nothing yet?

- They're supposed to post
the link any minute, so...

- Post what?

- Bar results.
Today's the day.

- Okay, shh.
It's up.

All right.
Come on.

Come on.

There it is.
- What?

- My ID number.
It's--it's on the pass list.

- You passed?

- I passed.
Oh, my God!

Congratulations.

- Somebody win the lottery?

- Sort of.
Carisi passed the bar.

- Carisi,
congratulations.

- Thank you.

- Does that mean
you're leaving too?

- What?
No.

- What do you mean, "too"?

- Dodds is going
to Joint Terrorism.

This is his last week.

- Last week?
He just got here.

- Yeah.
He's on his own journey.

- Uh-huh.

- Well, Carisi did it.

We should celebrate.

- Yeah, how about
I take you all to lunch?

- Today I can't.

- Come on, Fin.
Don't be like that.

- No, I got to go meet up
with my son.

He says he has
some news.

Hope he didn't quit hisjob.

- Hey.

You told 'em?

- I did.

- Task Force?
Really?

SVU, we go after bad guys
and lock 'em up.

Terrorism, you can get
yourself killed.

- Until today,
Gary just...

would made me go down on him,

but I said I didn't want
to do that anymore.

I was back
with my boyfriend.

He got mad.

He hit me.

And then he raped me.

- How many times
did this happen?

- I don't keep count.

At least once a week
since I got out.

I'm on his route.

I thought it was bad enough
when I was inside.

- Did he assault you
in Rikers?

- He never hurt me,

but when he'd take me back
from a visit,

he'd make a stop
in the chapel.

- No cameras there.

- He knows
what he's doing.

He'd say,

"You do me a favor,

I do you one".

- Meaning?

- Meaning I get to see
my kids.

Don't get strip-searched,
thrown into solitary.

Don't get my teeth
knocked in.

- Did you report this?

- In Rikers?

The COs and the gangs
run that place.

Every female inmate in there
knows that.

Every time he'd do me,
he'd say,

"Cry all you want,

"but you're just a broke,

"black crack whore.

Who's gonna believe you?"

- I do, Charisse.

Uh-huh.

I never should have called Ken.

- Gary Munson.
What do we know about him?

- CO at Rikers for 17 years.

Never charged,
never disciplined.

Puts in for a lot of OT.
A wife, two kids.

- His father-in-law is a deputy
inspector at Queens South.

Now, the second time
Gary fails the police exam,

strings get pulled,
he makes D.O.C.

He's got three complaints
in his jacket.

Nothing stuck.

- Nothing ever sticks
at Rikers.

That CO union has more power
than any place I've ever seen.

Putting that aside,

these cases
are never easy.

Your complainant
has 12 arrests?

- Misdemeanors:
drugs, prostitution.

My son says
she's turning it around.

- This guy covers
his tracks.

There's no DNA,
no witnesses,

vulnerable victims.

- Look, we really
caught a break

when Charisse called Ken.
- Did we?

It's still the word
of a corrections officer

versus a black single mother
with a drug problem

and a prison record.

- All right, if he's raping her
on the street,

how many is he raping
on the inside?

Is there any value
in having DOI look at him?

- Don't--Rikers is where
investigations go to die.

Violence, rape, assaults,

hundreds of allegations,

almost no prosecutions.

- Are you saying
just walk away?

- If a CO is having sex
with an inmate,

forced or not,
that's rape.

- It is, but Rikers--

it's like
"The Lord of the Flies" there.

If anyone finds out
we're investigating him,

Munson gets tipped off,

and his vics pay.

- So we're not
investigating him.

We need the guards' help.

We're investigating
a trafficking ring

with ties to gang members

who were involved
with female inmates.

- All right, yeah.
Put up a good front.

Pick another dozen women
who have rotated

through Charisse's unit

with similar records.
- Okay.

- Charisse says
she was raped in the chapel.

We should pull the surveillance
video from the hallway outside.

- And plus another six cameras.
Hand them a laundry list.

With luck, they won't realize
that Munson's the target.

- I'll start
the paperwork.

- You want to spend
your last week at Rikers?

- I'm not coasting out.
I'll put in my time to the end.

- What, are you trying
to make me miss you

now that you're
already gone?

- I'm just doing my job.

- Sex-trafficking victims?

Seriously, that's what you guys
call these women?

- I know, we're looking
at low-level hookers.

- But a couple of them
were underage.

SVU gets called in,
hence, "trafficking."

- And the crap keeps
rolling down the hill.

[door buzzes]
I hear you.

Visitor logs
for the so-called "victims."

- Least you don't have to
follow up with the boyfriends.

- Audio recordings
of phone calls is no problem.

500 hours of "baby" this,
"baby" that.

But you need video too?

- We want to know
who these girls interact with

after they see
their visitors.

- But there's no audio.

I'm not sure
how much help it'll be.

- If it's on the list,
it's on the list.

We just have
to check that box.

- I'll run it
by my warden.

Between the Feds
and DOI investigating...

Look, it's bad enough
we got these animals in here.

We're being killed
by friendly fire.

- Is there any chance we could
talk to some of these inmates?

- COs will know
where to find them.

- Mo'Nique?

She ain't here.

She is in the infirmary.

They're all working something.

Each one's worse
than the next.

- I'm sure it can get
rough in here.

- [scoffs]

I've been screamed at,
spit on, had

you-don't-even-want-to-know-what
thrown at me.

Guys pull their thing out,
wave it at the female COs.

Anyone making a complaint,
they're lying.

- That's not why we're here.

Some of the inmates
may have ties to the CPB gang.

- We think they
may be facilitating

the pimping of girls
on the outside.

- Sure.

They'd sell their own sisters
for a score.

- Keisha, possession.

Mo'Nique, assault.

Janice, prostitution.

Della, public urination.

A bunch of real ladies.

- Lot of rough road.

- We're just trying to keep 'em
from killing each other.

Now, if you're telling me
that they have

baby daddies or exes
or brothers in CPB,

I wouldn't be surprised.

- You're on visitation detail.

Any inmates, current or former,
that let something slip

about the gangs running girls
in the South Bronx?

- Well, anything real,
I go straight to the warden.

I don't look
the other way.

- Any of these ladies
ever asked you to?

- What, are you kidding me?

They're working me 24/7.

With the big eyes
and the crying

and the begging.

'Cause everybody in here,

they're all innocent,
right?

- Of course they are.

Thanks.

- Mike Dodds.

Chief Dodds is your dad,
right?

- Yeah.

- My father-in-law knows him.

- Sure.

Thanks.

- The female CO
was the lookout.

- Yep, and just like
Charisse said,

he takes her to the chapel
after visiting hours.

- After five minutes, he emerges

with a big grin on his face,
adjusting his junk.

Seconds later,
she comes out.

We know what happened.

- So, this corresponds
with the dates Charisse gave us?

- Yeah, every Saturday,
her mother shows up

with her daughters,
and every Saturday afternoon,

Munson gets his favors.

- Ten times, same M.O.,
over three months.

- And it's not just Charisse.

By chance, we found
three other probable victims.

20s to 30s.

of these tapes to go through.

We'll find some more vics.

is out of our jurisdiction.

Charisse was assaulted
in Manhattan,

so I'll call Barba
and let him know

that we have evidence
backing her story.

- It's gonna be tough.

Ken just got a call.

Charisse was arrested tonight.

Yeah.

this morning.

They should put a revolving door

- Yeah, we heard she just
got picked up last night.

- Oh, you heard that?

- Yeah, the gang unit
looped us in.

She was arrested
with her boyfriend.

He was a crew chief
for the CPB.

- Oh, could be.

I don't know
what the charges were,

but I heard that her
and her boyfriend

were this trick-rolling team.

- Oh, that checks out.

Then we have
an outstanding case.

John wakes up
in a hotel,

no Rolex, no laptop.

Craigslist hookup,
you know?

All he can remember is
that she was pretty and black.

- Is that right?

Well, it fits Charisse
and her M.O., so--

- We think that now
she's back inside,

it might give us
some leverage on her.

- Yeah, I wouldn't count on it.

Every time that one
opens her mouth,

a lie comes out.

- No, we got
the john waiting.

We put her in a lineup,

get this thing closed out.

She gets ID'd.

She might lead us
to other names.

- They give you OT
for that?

- Collars for dollars.

- Good for you.

But it's a dead end.

- He did this.
Gary.

He said that he could do
whatever he wanted to me.

That the only time
I should open my mouth

is with him
in the chapel.

- So he assaulted you again?

- What do you think?

I told you, this is never
gonna go away.

- We can keep you
out of Rikers.

- No, it doesn't matter.

He knows where I live,

where my mama lives
with my two girls.

I wasn't resisting arrest
or being disorderly

or whatever they say.

- Did they identify themselves,
tell you why they stopped you?

- They just said,

"NYPD, empty your pockets now."

He had one joint.

They start yelling,
roughing him up.

I pull my cell,
start to record.

Three cops come out of nowhere,

grab my phone,

and put me in cuffs.

- Did they tell you
why you were under arrest?

- No.

They threw me in the car

and tossed my cell phone
out the window.

- Okay.

Okay, we're gonna look
for that phone.

That video might help us.

- Right.

[dramatic music]

He has complete control of me.

My life is over.

He owns my ass.

- Charisse, we're gonna
protect you.

He's not gonna
get away with this.

- So a possible
illegal search.

- Probable.

We're checking security cams
near the arrest.

- What about
the arresting officers?

- It's a big surprise.

They're not returning our calls,

so we're pulling the 61
and the arrest report.

- Hey.
Lucky break.

Security cam footage
from the bodega

on the corner
caught the whole thing.

See?
They move right in.

Nothing indicates
probable cause.

Am I right?
- It doesn't look good.

- Now, when Charisse starts
filming, they go up to her.

- They call that
resisting arrest,

and they didn't even give her
a chance to resist.

- They're not worried
that they're directly in view

of a security camera?

- What worries me is
this can't be coincidence.

She and her boyfriend
were targeted

as soon as she started
cooperating.

Munson's trying
to intimidate her.

- Yeah, maybe.
Maybe.

Find out if there's
any connection between these

five officers and Munson.
- Or his father-in-law.

- So the surveillance video
backs up Charisse's story.

Man, these guys are bold.
- And they're MIA.

I put a call in to
their captain: radio silence.

- Clearly there's no cause
to arrest her.

I'd feel better if her boyfriend
wasn't holding.

What do we know
about him?

- Jay Raymond.
He's got a record.

All for misdemeanor
possession, no ties to CPB.

He pleaded not guilty
last night.

- Which means he's in Rikers,
and he's not safe there,

and neither is Charisse.

- Can you get
the charges dropped, Barba?

- That's a bad move.

I don't want anybody thinking
that we're looking out for her.

Did she make bail?
- Five grand, no bond.

Which might as well
have been 500 grand.

- I can get the judge
to reduce that.

Her defense attorney
will go along with it.

- Hold on.
What about these three?

Right,
they're in Rikers too.

If Munson thinks
that we're investigating him,

they're gonna be
in trouble.

- What are they in for?
- LaTanya Franks.

CeCe Thornhill, Zahara Letts.

They're all in
for class A misdemeanors.

- Do not talk to them
at Rikers.

I'll let their defense attorneys
know that I'll be asking

the judge to reduce
their bail as well.

a reduction in bail?

Unlucky 13?

on one count of rape

in the first degree
and one count of attempted rape

in the second degree,
how do you plead?

- Not guilty on both,
Your Honor.

- People on bail?

- Remand.

I know that being a CO is one
of the toughest jobs there is,

and most of them carry out their
duties with dignity and respect.

That's why it's essential
to send the message

that New York City
will not tolerate

any abuses of power.

- Mr. Barba,
this is not the time

to score political points.

- That being said,
Gary Munson is not

one of the good guys.
He is a serial predator

who abuses his position
to assault female inmates.

He has access
to DOC databases,

including home addresses.

- Mr. Munson is a dedicated
civil servant,

17 years CO,
no record,

who himself
is being victimized

by career criminals
with an axe to grind.

We request that
all charges be dropped.

- This is neither the time
nor the place, Mr. Pastrino.

These are serious allegations.

However,
given the record

of the defendant
and his ties to the community,

I am denying the people's
request for remand.

Bail is set at $200,000,
cash or bond.

- I don't think
we have that kind of money.

- We look out
for our own, Lisa.

♪

- You set him up.
This is entrapment.

- That's not what's
happening here, Mrs. Munson.

a good father.

Calling him a rapist?

How dare you?

How dare all of you?

- [sighs]

- Okay, Charisse--not the
world's most credible witness.

Audio and video are subject
to different interpretations.

Did you get anything
from his car?

- No, it was hygienic.

He had it detailed
the night before.

- Yeah, probably why he didn't
want her to get in yesterday.

- What about his cell phone,
GPS, his E-ZPass?

Can we put him near
her halfway house?

- He's smarter than he looks:
he turns off his GPS

to and from work,
and he pays cash at tolls.

- So nothing puts him
in Charisse's neighborhood?

- No, we may have something.

Now, the red lines
are Gary's possible route

to work from his home.

Now, he should use
either the Triborough

or the Whitestone Bridge
to get from the Bronx to Queens.

- But he doesn't?
- No.

We've got him
on bridge cams once a week,

on Fridays, using
the Macombs Dam Bridge

to cross into Manhattan.

- Okay, nothing
on the street cams?

- No, like I said,
he's smart.

No, he avoids
known traffic cams.

- Key word: "known."

I called my new friends
at Joint Terrorism

and caught a break.

Charisse's halfway house
is two blocks away

from a Harlem Mosque.

- Terrorism, Harlem,
mosque.

NYPD doesn't like
those three words together.

- License plate readers.

They've had 'em
near hot spots since 2007.

- That's right.

Now, we found
that every Friday morning

for five Fridays running,

Gary Munson has driven
within two blocks

of the Mosque
and within 100 yards

of where Charisse said
she was raped.

- That's not a route.
That's a pretzel.

- There's not a reason
on earth

to detour through Manhattan
from the Bronx

to get to Rikers.
- Good.

It's circumstantial,
but it's a start.

Keep digging.

- Okay, here's where
you might be able to help us.

Now, Munson used a condom
with Charisse last week,

but there weren't any
in his car, so...

maybe he uses
the same brand at home.

- That might be enough
to get me a warrant.

I'll see if I can find
a judge who's willing

to go against the CO union.

- You're not
gonna find anything.

- Thank you for
your cooperation, Mr. Munson.

- Yeah, your daddy
gonna be proud of you?

Invading the home
of a fellow officer,

railroading
one of your own?

- We're looking for anything
with the victim's DNA on it.

The suspect's clothing,
personal items.

- On it, Sergeant.

- Again, is there a place,
maybe a neighbor's house,

that you can take
your children to?

- Now you're worried
about us?

- Ah...

The search is gonna be
extremely disruptive.

Your kids
shouldn't be here.

Please, Mrs. Munson.

- Annie, Tommy,
let's go play in the backyard.

- Do we have to?

- You can use the hose.
Make mud pies.

- Race you.

- We wouldn't be here
is we didn't have good reason.

- He didn't do this,
and I'm calling my father.

He's a deputy inspector,
and when he hears about this,

you are all gonna be
on traffic detail.

- I understand
that you're angry,

but what I'm about to say
is gonna make you more angry.

You should get yourself

what do you want?

Munson is a rapist.
