A few years after his return, he is involved in a shooting, and indicted before the Grand Jury. Although he is cleared of all charges, he decides to retire from the force because he has now "broken every rule in the book."

  (#5) Fin Tutuola

  • Law & Order: Special Victims Unit

  Detective Odafin "Fin" Tutuola began his career as an undercover narcotics investigator for VICE. He used to spend more time undercover than out, causing strained relationships with his wife and son. He and his wife divorced, and his son, Ken, barely speaks to him.  

  Tutuola (Ice-T, Law & Order: SVU) grew up in Harlem during the Martin Luther King Jr. riots, and was forced to learn many hard lessons about the streets. He often butts heads with the other detectives, because he feels that criminals should be punished in a very black-and-white manner. He eventually softens up, but not until after he and Elliot Stabler get into a huge fight, and Tutuola threatens to transfer out of the department. They eventually reconcile their relationship, and Fin stays on the force.

  • Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, Law & Order: Special Victims Unit

  Olivia Benson (Mariska Hargitay, Law & Order: Special Victims Unit) is the Patron Saint of Badass Females everywhere. She characteristically always stands up for feminism, and the rights of the victim - no matter what. As a child of rape, Benson knows what victims go through after an attack. Liv watched her alcoholic mother struggle with the fact that she had been raped until the day she died, and in order to pay it forward on behalf of her mother, Benson now acts as a victims rights advocate in every single case.   

  Although she can be nurturing and helpful, don't get on Olivia Benson's bad side. She's been known to take down a perp or two, especially the ones who have tried and failed to sexually attract her. She is promoted to Sergeant after both Cragen and Munch retire, and finally understands just how difficult she, herself, was to work with when she was a young detective.
