    My favorite episode from any series is when Kyle MacLachlan kills a kid in a courthouse and still gets off because the kid was evil and Kyle had a mental break

      Lawyer here. That episode was fairly realistic given that it's quite common for fully grown adults to get away with murdering children so as long as their clearly evil. It's called the Omen Defense.

      Isn't that the one where the evil kid killed Kyle Maclaclan's son by having him eat rocks, and then he put on an act of just being a dumb kid to make him have sympathy for him?

    A lot of this is why the OG Law and Order is my second favorite crime show after Columbo. SVU and everything after it have this conception of the law where you just have to get to the bottom of things and as the story unwinds you'll end up working your way up from arresting the step dad to the owner of the pedophile factory. In the OG L&O the law and legal world are more or less inscrutable. Almost like Greek mysticism. There's no real rhyme or reason as to why Jack wins or loses cases. Like, Jack goes to the muses(the DA) to see if he can use a video of the perpetrator committing the crime while showing his drivers license and birth certificate as evidence and the DA's just like "The winding strings of fate say NO." so now Jack's office has to go out and find new evidence at the last minute.

    I have seen the last episodes of Law and Order, and was so boring, now Benson is a Lt. in One Police Plaza (that still didn't mention where is anymore, maybe because is in the middle between the financial district and Two Towers), and now the only that keep it afloat is the new Stabler show, that try very hard to sanitise him, but SVU should have been cancelled long time ago, hell, in retrospective, even Cragen seemed to be a better portrayed chief of detectives than Benson, because he was sitting his desk and most of the time never get personally invested in the crimes.
