Law & Order: Criminal Intent - 02x12 Suite Sorrow

Summary: When the wealthy and matronly owner (guest star Judith Roberts) of a magnificent hotel is found naked and murdered with injections of Botox in her bathtub, Detectives Goren (Vincent D'Onofrio) and Eames (Kathryn Erbe) focus on the victim's unstable adult daughter (guest star Amy Ryan) who resented her mother's meddling in her love life. While the cops' investigation also snares a makeup artist who dabbles in Botox, they find they need one more missing link to make their case -- and subsequently look to the dysfunctional family for more clues. Emmy Award-nominated actor Hal Linden ("Barney Miller") also guest-stars. Jamey Sheridan and Courtney B. Vance also star.

TRIVIA

Like many "Law & Order" stories, this "ripped-from-the-headlines" episode has some basis in reality. The flamboyant murder victim here possesses many characteristics of the late hotel magnate Leona Helmsley (1920-1997), who was tarred by the Manhattan media with the nickname "The Queen of Mean." Although Helmsley served prison time (for tax evasion and mail fraud), she was released and died of natural causes at home, splitting her vast fortune among many worthy charities, family members ... and her Maltese dog Trouble.
