| abstract | - Sheldon Kerrick (alias Robert Sawyer) was a plumber who kidnapped and murdered five boys in the 1970s. He was assisted by two unwilling teenagers, Carlos Guzman and Anna Gable, who thought he would kill one or the other if they did not cooperate. In addition to killing the boys, Kerrick molested Gable repeatedly after drugging her with stolen medication. The crimes went unsolved until 2005. By that time, Kerrick was suffering from end-stage pancreatic cancer. Novak offers to arrange for an oncologist to take care of him, as well as immediate compassionate release when his condition worsens during imprisonment at a hospital prison ward, in exchange for pleading guilty to all charges and giving the identity of his first victim, who was never identified. However, Kerrick had no memory of the boy's name. He died from his cancer sometime afterwards. (SVU: "Name")
