SVU: Is Martin Short a psychic? Or the culprit?

When a young woman is kidnapped by a rapist targeting virgins, psychic Sebastian Ballentine (played by Martin Short) offers to help. Stabler dismisses him as a phony. But when details Ballentine offers about the crime are suspiciously accurate, the detectives suspect he’s actually the culprit. Benson learns his wife is his accomplice, enabling his hunt for virgins. Then a final twist: the couple murdered a pregnant woman to steal her baby. We’re talking about Special Victims Unit season 6 episode 18 “Pure.” Our guest is Amye Archer from the Little Miss Recap podcast. Plot points for this episode come from the controversy around so-called “virginity auctions.” New episodes of These Are Their Stories will return July 8!
