The Naked Violinist is remade for American TV
mainLast night’s episode of Law and Order: SVU (season 17, episode 6) came with the following synopsis:
A violinist is raped by her colleague, who doesn’t remember committing the crime and claims he was drugged and robbed by a hired escort.
Sound familiar?
Change the sex of the violinist and you have this: https://slippedisc.com/2015/04/the-naked-quartet-leader-is-innocent-ok/
Remember Stefan? He’s still awaiting due process in New York.
==still awaiting due process in NY
So has he not been allowed to leave the country? With loss of earnings and assembling a legal team, it must be costing him a fortune !
As one of the posters in the earlier thread wrote
“I sure hope, for Stefan Arzberger’s sake, that someone drew blood from him for testing at the time he was arrested.”
Unfortunately, date rape drugs such as Rohypnol are specifically selected because they disappear from the blood quickly.
The subplot was inspired by Arzberger’s case. The theme of the Law and Order series is “rippled from the headlines.” But the changes were naked guy from “German string-quartet violinist” to “Russian classical-pop flutist” and victim from “80ish previously unknown woman assaulted” to “sexy electric violinist in the backing group raped.”
