You can really tell it's an early episode because Benson and Stabler are pissed that Silver wouldn't be rotting in jail for killing her rapist because... the rapist was a judge??? A crooked judge who preyed on women who had already been abused. Coercive sex = rape is 101-level stuff, but the writers really treated it like the exchanges were consensual. Bizarre.
