Goofs
Amaro mentions as he's having his mugshot taken that he's "entitled to a call." This is actually a very common misconception -- the suspect is not entitled to anything other than legal representation. Access to the telephone is a privilege, not a right.

Danny Pino has himself a nice jackpot with being arrested for giving a beat down to child pornographer who got off. Internal Affairs has him in their sights and he's got an arrest warrant. But he's got himself a good friend in retired detective Richard Belzer who doesn't have to obey any of the directives given the rest of the SVU squad.
But this episode marks a turning point in the life of Mariska Hargitay. During an undercover sting which nets an arrest of a pair of robbers who use Craig's List to target victims, the girl who set the marks up for Gavin Keith-Umeh turns out to be the mother of a baby that Sergeant Benson rescued in a previous episode. Will Emma Greenwell roll on Umeh who has quite a large prostitution operation as well as an illegal day care center that his mother runs.
Some extra-legal leverage is used to get Pino out of his jackpot. As for Olivia Benson, as Judge Jayne Houdyshell points out, Benson is the only one who's shown a real concern about the infant Noah. As the story concludes Olivia Benson becomes a foster mother.
This episode gets a bit into the personal lives of two of the squad regulars. These are truly three dimensional people.
