Law & Order Season 24 Episode 12 is almost here! Looking forward to the new episode? Not sure if you should tune in? Either way, we have a first look that should get you ready for Thursday!
The hour features guest star Abigail Spencer as a character who makes an already-tragic case even more heartbreaking. Without giving anything away, let’s just say that anyone who loved Spencer as Lucy in Timeless or female Harvey Scottie in Suits should absolutely make it a priority to watch this one. Even if you’re not usually glued to your TVs on Thursday nights, we think you should go ahead and make a plan to watch “Duty to Report” with us. But you don’t have to take our word for it since we have that clip for you below.
What happens in Law & Order Season 24 Episode 12? Spencer plays Michelle Burns, whose daughter is founded murdered. Oh, and small detail: The investigation leads Detectives Shaw and Riley right to Michelle’s husband Ron. As the case unfolds, the question of whether or not Michelle also played an indirect role in her daughter’s death and should be held accountable comes up. But as it turns out, she’s also a victim. Which, of course, means Maroun is going to stand up for her.
