A DISMEMBERED BODY LEADS THE DETECTIVES TO AN ILLEGAL BODY PART RING AND REUNITES THEM WITH AMY SOLWEY, THE DEAF PHYSICIAN WHO HAD ONCE GONE TO JAIL FOR ASSISTING SUICIDE -- MARLEE MATLIN GUEST STARS. When a woman's body is found dismembered in a junkyard, Detectives Benson (Mariska Hargitay) and Stabler (Chris Meloni) investigate and evidence leads them to the victim's boyfriend, Leon Shragewitz (guest-star Glenn Kessler). Shragewitz confesses to the murder, by pushing her down a flight of stairs, and leaving her to die. A twist in the case leads Benson and Stabler to find that a kidney was then extracted from the victim's body by a man trying to save his sick son, leaving the rest of her remains in the junkyard. Detectives Besnon and Stabler turn to Amy Solwey (guest-star Matlin) to help them solve the case by leading them to the transplant surgeon who is at the center of an illegal body part ring. Ice-T, Diane Neal and Richard Belzer, Tamara Tunie, and Dann Florek also star.
