Killing The Competition - Law & Order SVU

The pressure of training drives a young athlete (Kate Mara) to kill another girl on the team.

From Season 2, Episode 9 "Pixies" - When a young gymnast is found murdered, Detectives Benson and Stabler investigate both her demanding coach and a wealthy benefactor.

This is the official YouTube channel for Law & Order. Watch all of the official clips from the series, some of the best moments from within the criminal justice system, where the people are represented by two separate yet equally important groups: The police, who investigate crime, and the district attorneys, who prosecute the offenders.

Benson- How did you know about the bracelet if you never saw the victim the night she died?

Benson has a good point. The bracelet was never released to the public.

Let me guess. The defense tries the insanity plea because of all the dieting, pressure and the cut-throat nature of the sport.

The worst part is, there are actually parents in real life that do this. If asked they won’t see what they are a doing as wrong. Meanwhile the child grows up feeling unloved, under appreciated, and craving attention.

They you have the weird trainers who only think about winning ignoring any mental or physical ailments they are forcing upon children just so they can look good as a coach.

The other lesson here is we never know what others are going through. She assumed the victim had it easy, when in reality she had it as hard as her if not harder. On top of that now she was being groomed by a legal peadophile.

I feel sorry for the killer and the victim.

Kinda reminds me of when Sarah Hyland guest starred (for the second time actually, different character), and she killed her roommate who was smarter than her and Sarah’s character was going manic because of being on ADD drugs to study

Everyone got their start on law and order 💀

Lori is not a sociopath or a psychopath she is just angry and bitter.

So that coach manipulated a bunch of young, vulnerable minors by lying to them and is possibly one of the underlying causes for a motive of the murder. Of one of his pupils. That another pupil may have had a role in.

And nothing was ever done/said about him again. And he's probably still doing it. And other parents send their kids to this guy willingly.

So, first it's an accident with the brick flying out of her hand. Then the victim of the homicide made her do it....

That coach is a monster. If I had children, I wouldn’t place them in the charge of that horrible man if my life depended on it.

[maryammure]

The way she crying then she turned all mad as hell at 6;04. She meant to kill her. Killing someone out of jealousy says total psycho imo. She needs help.

A *very* young Kate Mara! I had forgotten she guested !

[CommonSenseRevolution]

Kate Mara showing her awesome acting chops!

[Atmo]

Kristi is the real victim, and Lori was a victim too, believe it or not. The perpetrators are the parents and that coach. Lack of love, lack of empathy, lack of humility and happiness all equal weakness, fragile esteems, and tortured souls.

[thewrongshoes]

It’s funny how they almost always confess on this show lol

[tonyathreadgill]

lets just say I blame the coach for all this. He caused that girl's death and he made it worse by competing the girls against one another.

I feel like the Law & Order YouTube channel is probably one of the best TV YouTube channels. Like you can get pretty much most of an episodes plot and plus the videos me like 10 minutes. So...great content.

"I swore not to tell" is quite the thing to say to a police officer 😅

[r.n.holmes]

Did you notice how she kept saying 'oh she got everything so easy she got everything so easy' nobody loved me'. That's not healthy.

[steveo]

Young Kate Mara. I swear, Law & Order and ER made more stars...

Years later Lori is murdered by being shoved in front of a subway train in DC.
