A YOUNG WOMAN IS MURDERED AFTER PERFORMING IN A DANCE SHOW WITH SUICIDEGIRLS, ON A REBROADCAST OF "CSI: NY," WEDNESDAY, JAN. 17, 10:00-11:00 PM, ET/PT

SuicideGirls Guest Star

"Oedipus Hex" -- An 18-year-old's dream of becoming a SuicideGirl, a generation of young women and men whose ideals about sexuality do not conform with the mainstream, ends tragically when she is brutally murdered after performing in one of their shows, on a rebroadcast of CSI: NY, Wednesday, Jan. 17 (10:00-11:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network. Scott Lautanen directed the episode written by Ken Solarz and Anthony E. Zuiker, one of the series' co-creators and executive producers. (Originally broadcast 10/18/06)

Several of the long-time SuicideGirls, including founder Missy Suicide, guest star in this episode. SuicideGirls is a contemporary lifestyle brand and a vibrant, fast growing community of women and men whose ideals of beauty are not represented in mainstream culture. They were founded on the belief that creativity, personality and intelligence are not incompatible with sexy, compelling entertainment. Their website mixes the enthusiasm and do-it-yourself attitude of the best music and alternative culture sites with an unapologetic, grassroots approach to sexuality.

Danny and Lindsay work to find who bludgeoned a young woman to death after her performance with SuicideGirls and their suspect list grows smaller when the murder weapon proves to be a stiletto worn by one of the women. Meanwhile, Mac, Stella and Flack investigate the death of a homeless man turned streetballer who was killed after winning an intense one-on-one game in Rucker Park against one of professional basketball's best.
