Law & Order (1990)

Season 11: Episode 13

When a gay man is beaten to death during the abduction of his adopted infant son, Detectives Briscoe and Green suspect that ransom from the murder victim's wealthy partner may have been the motive for the crime. But as more is learned about the child's birth mother and homophobic biological father, Assistant D.A.'s McCoy and Carmichael find that what appeared to be a botched kidnapping might be more accurately prosecuted as a hate crime.
