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..

" Someone help me please. My sister is bleeding and she isn't responding." Chris yelled as he ran into the ER.

" Give her here. I am Dr. Thurston. I will come get you when we are done. OK?" He saids as he ran to the trauma room and began working on Jenna.

2 hours later

" Margie and Chris for Jenna Smith?" The doc said as he walked into the waiting room.

" Yes that's us." Margie said as she stood up and pulled Chris along with her. Their eyes were blood shot and Margie had black mascara running down her cheeks from crying.

" Jenna is concious but she is asleep. We did a rape kit on her and it came back positive. Now I called the members of the NY Special Victims Unit. Ah, here they are now." the doc said.

" Hi I am detective Olivia Benson and this is detective Elliot Stabler. Are you Jenna's mother and brother?" Margie and Chris nodded their heads. " Well, let's go talk to your daughter so we can catch this guy."

Elliot, Olivia, Chris Margie, and the doc walked to Jenna's room. "Chris we need to take a DNA sample from you. It is standard procedure to take DNA from any med in the house. We can do it now. I have to ask you a few questions anyways ok?" Elliot asked.

Chris nodded and kissed his mother before follwing Elliot down to the lab.



Jenna's room

" Mrs. Smith I am so sorry for what happened to your beautiful daughter. Can you tell me about Jenna. She looks like a very sweet girl." Olivia said as she pulled a chair up beside Margie.

" She is a sweet girl. She is a wonderful daughter. She has had a rough life. Her father left when she was 9 months old. Chris was about 12 and still in school. He took care of her when he got home from school. He never went out to play with his friends. He would tell them he had to take care of Jenna. He loves her to death. They are very close. Chris has been a father and a brother to her. I have to work a lot to take care of them and keep my house. I work 14 hours a day. Chris is a firefighter and an EMT. When he goes on calls he takes her. She loves being on the firetrucks. She is a lot like him. She is the top player in softball. She is VERY good at sports. " Margie said as she stroked Jenna's hair.

" Yeah she gets it from me." Chris said as he walked back in the room. " Hey mom." Chris kissed his mother and stood over her protectivley. "These two women right here are my life. I love them dearly and I hate that Jenna got hurt. It is eating me up inside." Chris had unshed tears in his eyes as he looked at his sister.

" Well, Chris you test came back negative, which I thought it would. We are going to stick around the hospital till Jenna wakes up ok?" Elliot said as he sat next to Olivia. They weren't working any other cases except this one. " We are going to go get coffee would you like some?"

" No thanks." Margie and Chris said in unison.

" We will be back in a bit." Olivia said as they walked out of the room.

Down in the cafeteria

" So what did you learn about the girl from the mother?" Elliot asked.

" Well, Jenna seems like the perfect daughter. She is great in school. She is already in 2nd grade. They think she is a genius. She excels in all the sports she plays. She is a star catcher for the softball minor league and a star center for basketball. Her father left when she was 9 months and mom works 14 hours a day to take care fo ehr kids. Chris has been helping raise her since he was 12 years old. He is a firefighter and an EMT so he takes her on his calls. The mother loves her dearly." Olivia said as she sipped her coffee carefully. " What did ya learn about Chris?"

" He is a great brother and son. He loves Jenna and his mother more then anything. Jenna is always at his side when they are home. They do everything together. From what he told me Jenna looks up to him as a role model." Elliot said.

" Who did this to that beautiful little girl?" Elliot said as an unshed tear showed in his beautiful blue eyes.

" Hey you ok Elliot?" Olivia said as she took his hand in hers.

" Yeah I'm ok. This case is really getting to me. I mean a great little girl, gets hurt by some twisted bastard." Elliot's silent tears now ran down his face. Olivia reached over and wiped them away gently. Elliot grabbed her hand and kissed her palm. " Thanks Olivia."

" No problem. Hey let's go see if she woke up."

Up In Jenna's room

knock knock knock

" Come in." Margie said

" Ah, detectives. I would like you both to meet Jenna. Jenna this is detective Olivia Benson and Detective Elliot Stabler. Chris went home. I told him to get some sleep." Margie said as she sat on the bed with her daughter.

" Margie we would like to ask Jenna some questions. Why dont you go get something to eat with Olivia and I'll talk to Jenna ok?" Elliot said. Margie nodded and her and Olivia headed to the cafe.

" Hi. My name is Elliot whats yours?"

" I'm Jenna Smith. How are you sir."

" You dont have to call me sir sweetie. Just Elliot. I am ok. How are you?"

" Well, Elliot I am ok now. I guess I am ok. I dont really know." Tears began to fall from her beautiful brown eyes.

" Can I sit here?" Jenna nodded and Elliot sat on the bed. " It is ok to cry. Come here sweetie." Jenna hugged Elliot tightly. He let her cry on her shoulder. He felt his heart breaking. He REALLY wanted to cathc this guy for what he did to her. Jenna reminded him of his youngest girl. He didn't see them much since the divorce but they were always in his heart. " Can you tell me what happened Jenna?"

" Well, me, and my brother, and his friends were swimming and I had to go potty. Chris's friend Shawn took me to the bathroom. He came in with me and pulled his pants down and my bathing suit off. He stuck his finger inside me then he private part inside me. He went back to the pool and I went to my room and cried myself to sleep. When I woke up he was there again and my brother went to get things from the store. He made me sit on his lap and he put his privates in me again. When he was done I went to bed and woke up when my mom came home. I guess I fell asleep again and I woke up here." Jenna was looking Elliot straight in the eyes. She could see the tears falling from his eyes. She lifted her hand and wiped them away. " Are you going to put him in jail?"

" Jenna, I am going to find Shawn and make him pay for what he did to you ok?" Just then Chris came in the door.

" Oh god, Jenna I am so sorry. This is all my fault." Chris went to Jenna and hugged her.

" It isn't your fault Chris. It is Shawn's. He did this to me, not you. I don't blame you," Jenna kissed her brother.

" You have a great sister there Chris. She is really smart and mature for a 5 year old." Elliot said as he stood up.

" I know Elliot. I know. I am going to kill Shawn if I find him."

" Chris don't. Your mother and sister need you. Let me and Olivia take care of it ok?" Chris nodded his head and Elliot left to find Olivia.

Margie came back in the room and Jenna explained what happened. Margie and Chris were crying. Jenna made them go home and get some sleep. She was to be released the next day...........
