** Which becomes [[Fridge Horror]], as there's a very, ''very'' sound reason [[Downer Ending|why the baby wouldn't be heard from again]]...
* [[Legal Jailbait]]: An episode involves a 17 year old girl with the body of a 10 year old going out with an older man. The officers [[There Should Be a Law|try to bust the man]], but the girl was legal and consenting.
* [[Life Imitates Art]]: During the first half of the 2011 season, the episode "Missing Pieces" {{spoiler|in which a mother claims that her car was stolen with her young son still buckled into his car seat}} bore more than a passing resemblance to the still-unfolding [http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/11/10/sky-metalwala-law-order-svu_n_1086268.html Sky Metalwala] case. Another episode, "Personal Fouls," {{spoiler|which revolves around a well-respected coach who uses a children's charity to molest young boys}} originally aired a few weeks before the [http://gothamist.com/2011/11/09/did_law_order_svu_predict_the_joe_p.php Penn State molestation] story broke. However, according to [[The Other Wiki]], this one was actually based on a ''[http://www.cbc.ca/sports/hockey/story/2009/10/09/sp-fleury-tell-all.html different]'' sports abuse case.
* [[Limited Wardrobe]]: Usually averted, like most live TV shows, but weirdly played straight with Fin's son, Kevin, who has worn the same grey T-shirt/tan jacket combination in all of the five episodes he appeared in for at least one scene.
* [[Littlest Cancer Patient]]: "Sick" plays with this: the child ''is'' sick, {{spoiler|but not from the leukemia she thinks she has -- her grandmother is just making her ill to bilk charities}}.
