The fact that "Authority" is loosely referencing those Wendy's stories...it just got me thinking...what other completely sick stories that have been in the media do you think will/would make appropriate cases for SVU to investigate in the future...

Personally, the story that hit the wire yesterday about the woman in Amsterdam that was apparently imprisoned by her own father for the last 25 years, in a basement room, and fathered 7 children with her (some didn't live)
almost seems too sick to be real. Another case we would have thought was writers' really 'reaching' for material....but alas...this one is true...

I have a good one, but it might be a little like Svengeli/silence of the lambs.

John Wayne Gacey. He was a serial Killer pedaphile. He would dress up like a clown and lore little boys into his basement. Then he'd keep them down there for months and do terrible things to them. And then when he was finished he would skin them and use their skin as lamp shades and furniture covers. Gross huh?! Makes you want to vomit.

But THEN after they caught him, he painted a bunch of art work in jail. Mostly of clown faces and died a millionaire. HOW SICK is THAT! That to me is just as disgusting and grotesque as the actual act. Why in sam hell would you want to A: own a picture of a clown and B: give money to such an evil cause. Eh!

I've been chewing on that story for my next fanfic recently. When I get time to write it well I'll let you all know.

But I think something from that story could be easily made into a good SVU episode.

The one I used for inspiration in Parents. A man raped a minor and she got pregnant. He wasn't sent to jail and sued for custody of the baby. Because she was a minor, he claimed she couldn't take care of the child. He won.

And from what I read, he was living upstairs with his wife. So um, how come no one realized when his daughter "disappeared" down to the basement with 7 "grandkids/kids." What a gross and freaky story. Too bad it's not a story, it's reality.

EDIT: Okay, I guess he was living upstairs with his wife and 3 of those 7 (grand)kids, while the other 3 kids were left in the basement with his daughter, and one died of neglect as a baby. Sick sick sick.

Hahahaha!!! I now have a vision of Delivia rockin the socks, swinging from chandelier's, and pretending to be swash-buckling pirates.....(the pirate vision came to me after reading your comment about them swinging from the chandelier)

After "Annihilated" aired last year, an extremely similar real life crime was committed here. I think it was a south suburb of Chicago, but I can't remember where exactly. Somewhere in Illinois though. A crazy guy was living some kind of double life and blew his whole family away. Including his young children. I remember that when that incident occurred, NBC5 Chicago news kept making references to that SVU episode.

As for crimes today that could be used for a case? What about that Polygamist compound from Texas story? 15 and 16 year old girls being told that they are now ready to reproduce and (it would seem like it) forced to do so sounds kind of sick, right? I don't know. Do you suppose that that would seem too much like "Charisma?"

It is but they have been recycling storylines anyway.

But we don't need statutory rape with a polygamy story line. How about the Christian sect whose website tells how to have multiple"marriages" without breaking the law? If they technically don't break the law, what can the detectives do about it? And should they?
sviewer
Well, it's not really a possible plot, but more like an investigative tool they mentioned on the show. They called it kinship analysis on the episode "Haystack."

Here's a link to the story: http://www.latimes.com/news/science/la-me-...1,1605005.story

There's also the Elliot Spitzer scandal, although that kind of case would probably end up at the original "Law and Order" like the Larry Craig one.

Captive daughter had at least 6 children by her father

Email PictureJohannes Simon / Getty ImagesA view of the back of a house where a 73-year-old man locked up his daughter in a basement for 24 years and had several children with her, seen on April 27, 2008 in Amstetten, Austria.From Reuters
3:54 PM PDT, April 27, 2008 AMSTETTEN, Austria -- Austrian police have arrested a man they believe imprisoned his daughter in a windowless basement for 24 years, abused her and fathered seven children with her.

Police said the woman, identified as 42-year-old Elisabeth F, told them her father Josef had lured her into the basement of the block where the family lived in Amstetten in 1984, and drugged and handcuffed her before locking her up in the dungeon.

Three of her children were locked up since birth in the basement of the drab, grey building along with their mother and had never seen sunlight or received any education, police said.

Authorities were still trying to piece together details of the case, which is reminiscent of that of Austrian Natascha Kampusch who spent eight years locked up in a windowless cell before dashing to freedom in August 2006.

Police said Josef, a 73-year-old electrical engineering technician by training, was in custody and had told investigators how to enter the basement prison through a small hidden door, operated by a secret code which only he had known.

"There is not only one, but a number of rooms: one room to sleep in, one to cook, and there are also sanitation facilities," Franz Polzer, head of the criminal investigations unit in the province of Lower Austria, told broadcaster ORF.

Josef's wife Rosemarie had been unaware of what happened to her daughter and it was assumed Elisabeth had disappeared voluntarily when her parents received a letter from her saying they should not search for her.

Elisabeth gave birth to seven children during her ordeal, one of whom died shortly after being born, police said.

Three of the younger children were brought up by Josef and his wife after they were left at the building, the first child accompanied by a note from Elisabeth saying she was unable to care for the baby herself.

Three others, including the two eldest aged 18 and 19, and the youngest, aged 5, had been locked up in the basement with their mother since birth.

"The father seems to be very authoritarian and decided what happened and what was supposed to happen in the family - and today we know why he very closely guarded the basement," Polzer said.

LOCKED UP SINCE BIRTH

The case only came to light when the oldest child became seriously ill and was taken to hospital in Amstetten. Josef said that child had also been left unconscious on his doorstep, according to media reports.

A 19-year-old girl, who was seriously ill and is still fighting for her life, was last weekend dropped off at the hospital in Amstetten.

Doctors appealed for the girl's mother, who at that time was believed to have disappeared, to come forward to provide more details about the daughter's medical history.

Josef then brought Elisabeth and her remaining two children out of the dungeon, telling his wife that their "missing" daughter had chosen to return home, police said.

"This is not a mother abandoning her child which then had to be admitted to hospital in a serious condition ... We know that she herself has been kept imprisoned by her own father for 24 years in the basement and furthermore she obviously was also subjected to sexual abuse," Polzer said.

After questioning and assurances that she would have no further contact with her father - who she said abused her from the age of 11 - Elisabeth agreed to make a "comprehensive statement".

The news sent shockwaves through Amstetten, a town of around 22,000 some 130 km (80 miles) west of the capital Vienna.

"It is so horrible, I can see the house from my balcony and from my window and when I think now of who was in there, I can simply not imagine that," neighbour Corina Schmid told ORF as onlookers gathered in the street outside the three-storey building and investigators in white suits continued their search of the premises.

"I spoke to (Rosemarie) at Christmas, and she told me they didn't know where the daughter was, she had simply vanished," neighbour Margarete Gollonitsch told the broadcaster.

Rosemarie, as well as Elisabeth and her children were receiving psychological counselling. DNA samples of all those involved were taken and would be analysed, police said.

I live fairly close to where the Amish School Shootings of October 2006 happened, and that has always stuck in my mind as a possible SVU story. In the shootings, the gunman, Charles Carl Roberts left a suicide note saying that he molested two family members when he was 12 and he feared he was going to do it again, but the family members came forward and said that he DIDN'T molest them. I think that this would make for an interesting case of SVU, to tie in a school shooting.
jacobsmommy06
Another story that would be good for svu, happened where I live.

Three years ago a young woman (20) was taking care of a six year old girl. The little girl claimed that
this man touched her down there. (He had already been in prison for sex abuse). The woman was going to go to the police about it. The guy found out. He got his friend. They invited her to a party, where they got her drunk. They also drugged her drink. Then they took her out to the middle of nowhere, and took a tire iron to her. They knocked her out, and buried her.

Fast foward 3 years
Last summer they finally found the youngs womans body.(One of the guys came foward).

One story that would make a good episode is the recent one about the man in Austria I believe who lock his daughter up in a basement for 24 yrs and repeatedly raped her and fathered 6 children with her. How sick and bizarre is that and his wife (her mother) had no clue what was going on????????????? Plus 2 of the children were never let out of the basement, no sunlight. My God some children and women in this world suffer wicked, evil and disturbing things by the hands of men. mad.gif

I just heard that in Marion, Il, a man had a heart attack and collapsed on his wife, subsequently dying. She was trapped under his dead body for FOUR days, until the mailman finally figured out something was wrong. (Papers gathering on the porch.) The wife ended up being okay, once she was rescued. Okay physically, I'm assuming, but I don't know how one could recover from something like that psychologically. I'm not sure how that would fit into an SVU episode, but I found it to be a remarkable story.

A few years ago in my town a coach at a cheerleading gym was accused of rape by several of his students at the gym. All the girls were between 11-13. He was found guility and is know in jail.

Pictured: Inside the cellar where father locked daughter for 24 years and repeatedly raped her



Confession: Josef Fritzl says he locked his daughter in a cellar for nearly 24 years



This is the man who today confessed that he imprisoned his daughter in an underground chamber for 24 years and fathered her seven children.

Elisabeth Fritzl, 42, was raped repeatedly since being lured into the dungeon built below the family home in a small Austrian town. Police said she had been "broken" by the experience.

Josef Fritzl, 73, admitted to police that all the children were his.

Three of them - Kerstin, 19, Stefan, 18, and Felix, five - were held captive with their mother in a series of windowless rooms and never saw the sunlight until they were freed on Saturday.

Incredibly, three others, Alexander, 12, Monika, 14, and Lisa, 16, were raised in the home by Fritzl and his wife. They were adopted by the couple and went to school, leading apparently normal lives.

The other child, a twin, died shortly after birth and the body burned by Fritzl in a boiler. Detectives today revealed details of the complex of rooms where Elisabeth was held since August 1984.

The three children kept prisoner with her were born there and are thought to have spent their entire lives underground.

Franz Polzer, head of the criminal investigations unit in the province of Lower Austria, said: "He has now said that he locked up his daughter for 24 years and that he alone fathered her seven children and that he locked them up in the cellar."

The case echoes that of Natascha Kampusch who was kept in a cellar by a paedophile in Vienna for eight years from the age of 10 until she escaped last year.

Police are now trying to discover how Fritzl managed to keep his daughter as a sex slave without the apparent knowledge of his 60-year-old wife Rosemarie at the three-storey house in Amstetten, 80 miles west of Vienna.

Elisabeth was this afternoon said to be suffering from a serious physical condition which was deteriorating.

I remember, ok I don't know how long it was but let's say it was a good 10 years, but I do remember clearly reading this story in People magazine about this little boy who used to go to school with a briefcase wearing suits, used to answer his teacher's questions by standing up however he got bullied by other students until one day his grandmother discovered his dead body in the closet hanging from the poll by one of his ties.

I don't remember his name either but that story alone really stuck with me, how sad it was. He sounded such a smart boy, and yet kids were so cruel to push him over the edge like that.

Another one: I heard on my radio show about a teacher making this young 5 year old boy into a bad one, telling all the other students not to deal with him or anything! The boy kept telling his parents that he didn't want to go to school and so they snuck in a recorder to hear if he was telling the truth and sure enough he was!

Here in my neck of the woods, the Neil Entwistle case is just starting jury selection. This is another one that could end up on SVU (or possibly either of the other two L&O's.)

I was also thinking...that former Cop, last name Peterson...who's 4th wife has mysteriously disappeared. And his 3rd wife died under mysterious cirmcumstances (and after exhuming her body, it's been ruled her death was a homicide.)

And while I'm on a roll...that other cop, Bobby(?) Cutts...who murdered his pg. girlfriend, and left their toddler alone in the house. Nice mellow.gif

We'll have to resurrect this thread next season, and keep tabs on which cases made the show.
luv4svu
It is a sick world we live in isn't it. In my neck of the woods there were two stories one right after the other on the news tonight.

First - Last week a house was burnt down with a woman inside. Turned out she had been sexually assaulted and choked to death. They just arrested a suspect yesterday and he is saying he was just robbing the place. But she woke up and that was when he assaulted her. And I was thinking I've watched too much SVU 'cause I ain't buying it. You don't go to rob a house and then just end up in rape, murder and arson.

Second - they arrested a retired police officer today. This officer had been in the news previously because he caused a raid on a house at the wrong address and a guy inside was killed. He had lied to get the warrant, but ended up only pleading to a misdemeanor. SO he was still on the force until he retired last year. Anyway, two under age homeless girls say he offered them $20 to have sex with each other in front of him. And that he touched himself in front of them. And all this happened in the back room of his wife's store.

Way to much fodder for the writers out there.

It is a sick world we live in isn't it. In my neck of the woods there were two stories one right after the other on the news tonight.

First - Last week a house was burnt down with a woman inside. Turned out she had been sexually assaulted and choked to death. They just arrested a suspect yesterday and he is saying he was just robbing the place. But she woke up and that was when he assaulted her. And I was thinking I've watched too much SVU 'cause I ain't buying it. You don't go to rob a house and then just end up in rape, murder and arson.

Not worth an episode but more of the ongoing nonsense in this world. Last night on the news:
1. A guy arrested for buying A GALLON of GHB.
2. They are looking for a man that exposed himself to a woman and her child in a Target store. They have him on surveillance camera.
Sad, sick world...

How about that sicko in Florida, who has been carjacking (and in some cases, killing) women with small children. It was just on Dateline the other night.
He still has not been caught....

This was actually in NY and a Columbia student. This freak tortured this woman and left her for dead in her burning appartment. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/25357421/
