Summary
Monica Phelps is found dead in her apartment, her son Nathan hiding in the closet behind her body. Detectives soon link Monica's death to philanthropist Ted Carthage , who runs an organization dedicated to helping people get off the streets. Benson is certain that Carthage is the killer, but a shaky ID from Nathan puts him back on the street. After Nathan kills Carthage himself, Sophie Devere argues that Nathan committed the killing because he saw Carthage shoot his mother – something the gun manufacturers don't like. Benson's testimony makes Novak sympathetic, but the gun manufacturers, through Ted's wife, file a civil suit that brings the trial to a halt with Novak, Sophie and Judge Donnelly as the defendants. When the opposing attorney calls Nathan to the stand, Donnelly convinces the other two to allow it. Nathan incriminates himself on the stand and Sophie, as part of the plan, uses it to call for a mistrial of his criminal case, which Donnelly immediately grants. With the mistrial, Novak calls for a dismissal of the civil suit as it's no longer relevant to the criminal case, which the judge does. The opposing lawyer believes Novak and the others planned this, but the judge points out that the lawyer was the one who called Nathan to the stand, not them. Nathan is released and sent to a foster family as his father was murdered when he was six.
