Synopsis
In the criminal justice system, sexually based offenses are considered especially heinous. In New York City, the dedicated detectives who investigate these vicious felonies are members of an elite squad known as the Special Victims Unit. These are their stories.
Dixon (Camryn Manheim) uses American Sign Language to communicate with a young girl (Savannah Dahan) who is deaf at the precinct after a picture of her is found in the bag of a mass shooter.

Fun fact: when Camryn Manheim made her second guest appearance on Law & Order (season 3), she played as an attorney defending deaf people and she used ASL to communicate with her clients. Glad to see that they’re implementing it in her new character as well @GooseIsland
New fact – Lieutenant Dixon has a son who is deaf … I love when these shows touch just slightly on their personal lives, not to the extent One Chicago does @StephenJacob
Season 5 Episode 22. “Painless” (Year 1999)
