A father (Creator/JoeTapper) kidnaps his mitochondrial DNA depletion syndrome-affected infant and upon being aprehended claims he only did so because his wife would rather see the child dead as a sort of MercyKill. As SVU takes sides in the infant's right-to-die, Barba's own interference in the case leads to the entire DA's office being in jeopardy, and DA Jack [=McCoy=] getting involved and sending Barba to trial for murder. While Barba is ultimately found not guilty, he is heavily traumatized and resigns as ADA, being replaced by former Chicago ASA Peter Stone (Creator/PhilipWinchester), who has recently lost his father Benjamin Stone, a former ADA previously assigned to the NYPD's Homicide Unit.
