| 7 | * CorruptCop: Roy Eastman, a parole officer who didn't like that Lonnie was hooking up with his white step-daughter [=McKenna=], has him sent to jail for statutory rape. After Lonnie does his time and starts seeing [=McKenna=] again and the two make plans to run away when she turns 17, Roy gets another one of his parolees, Antonio Johnson, to rape Ceranda while wearing the same school jacket as Lonnie to get him send him back to prison. Antonio's half-brother, Sam, ends up doing it to protect him, but ends up killing Ceranda when she resists. Nonetheless, the murder riles up the neighborhood, especially the vigilante biker group the Dyckman Knights, against the Pedo Hotel and its residents. When Roy gets impatient over the SVU not arresting and charging Lonnie as fast as he had hoped for, he decides to dispose of Lonnie altogether by tipping off another biker gang who idolizes the Dyckman Knights, lying that Lonnie is the killer and goading them into taking the law into their own hands. The gang subsequently lays siege to the hotel, injuring most of the residents and lynching Lonnie by burning him alive. When he is ultimately arrested in the end, Roy tries to justify that he was trying to protect his step-daughter and cockily believes he won't be convicted. |
