"MERCY"   
MURDER OR MERCY KILLING? EMMY AND TONY WINNER JUDD HIRSCH GUEST-STARS -- When a one-month-old baby turns up dead and stuffed inside a cooler in the East River, Detectives Benson (Mariska Hargitay) and Stabler (Chris Meloni) are horrified, but M.E. Warner (guest star Tamara Tunie) soon makes a shocking discovery --- the baby had a genetic condition that always proves fatal by the time the child is 5 years old. The case might now appear to be a mercy killing and becomes difficult to prosecute for A.D.A. Alexandra Cabot (Stephanie March), prompting her to question a benevolent pediatrician (Emmy Award-winner Judd Hirsch, "Taxi"). Dann Florek, Richard Belzer, Ice-T, and B.D. Wong also star. Judith Light reprises her role as Bureau Chief Elizabeth Donnelly. Tony Award-winner Viola Davis ("Far from Heaven," "Solaris") also guest-stars. TV-14
