L&O: They'd kill to get their kids into a $20k kindergarten

Law & Order S13 E20 “Kid Pro Quo”

“You paid $20,000 to get your kid into an exclusive kindergarten? Maybe you’re the one who needs to go into time out.”

The admissions director at an elite kindergarten is murdered. Briscoe and Green learn she wanted to admit a gifted Black girl, but the headmaster overruled the decision  and gave the slot to the son of a pornographer. 

Southerlyn discovers the pornographer scratched the back of a cement supplier who scratched the back of a real estate developer who got the headmaster an expensive apartment. McCoy tells the jury the admissions director was about to expose the arrangement when she was killed.

We're talking about Law & Order season 13 episode 20 "Kid Pro Quo." Our guest is Joshua Unruh from the "In the Gutter" podcast.

This episode is inspired by the controversy around business tycoon Sandy Weill and the 92nd St Y.
