Закон и порядок Volunteers (1990–2010) Online

Detectives Briscoe and Logan investigate the severe beating of a homeless man, Roland Kirk. The man is something of a neighborhood terror and he is often off of his medication and also smokes crack. He was found in an alleyway, but had $2200 in his coat pocket and the detectives later learned that he has a $15,000 trust account managed by Richard Gilrich, an advocate for the homeless. The block association lost a court case, which is where the money came from, as they were clearly violating his rights. As a result, he continues to terrorize the neighborhood having once pushed a child in front of a moving car. On the night he was beaten, he had attacked a woman, Irene Morrissey, and her husband apparently decided to teach him a lesson. It all seems straightforward but getting a conviction proves to be another matter.

Based on the Larry Hogue (a.k.a. "The Wild Man of 96th Street") case. In the early 1990's Larry Hogue, a homeless crack addict known as the "Wild Man of 96th Street" terrorized the street for several years until being forced into treatment and extended state custody. In 2009, Hogue escaped from custody and returned briefly to West 96th Street before being found and returned to treatment.
