- Yeah, I just can't be in here for too long.
- I'm with you. Take a breath.
But I need to know how this happened
and--and about the tip that you called in.
- Look, I'm deep undercover for the DEA
as the muscle for a street crew in San Diego
that has ties to a cartel called Los Sin Fe.
- Why is a West Coast drug cartel
trafficking women in New York?
- Because we were here for an exchange.
- What kind of exchange?
- I thought it was drugs for guns.
We had coke. We had fent.
But then the other night, I heard that
they were trading it for people.
- And the DEA wanted us to rescue the women?
- No. They don't know.
- Wait, what? You don't trust your handler?
- I can't explain everything to you right now, OK?
I just need you to know that there's more.
- More victims? - Yes.
The exchange was one of two.
- When does this second exchange go down?
- I don't know. - Do you know how many women?
- No, not yet.
I just know that you gotta start looking.
Now. I'll reach out when I can.
- OK-- Velasco, wait, wait.
- You gotta send me back
or they're gonna think that something's up.
- Glenn Schaffner for Vicente Zavala.
He's done here.
- Well, I'm sick of talking to myself.
You can have him.
Bye, Vicente.
Report from the hospital?
- Yeah, minor injuries on the victims we rescued.
Abrasions, bruising.
I'm assuming from transit.
- I've asked for a rape kit from anyone who consents.
Any luck with the IDs?
- We did get a few matches in Missing Persons.
- OK.
- So we have Angela Neumann,
Tanya Cortez, Madison Cleary,
all from the tri-state,
all with a record for prostitution.
- We know sex workers are at a higher risk
of trafficking, but we don't know
how they got in that truck.
- And I assume we got nothing
from the other perps that we picked up?
- They're all lawyered up with Schaffner.
I looked into him.
He's a known cartel attorney hired to protect their guys.
- Other than that, nothing else we could dig up
on Los Sin Fe.
- Yeah, well, that's why I brought in this guy.
- Our guy is deep in. That's all I need to hear.
- Yeah. - Where's everybody else?
- Uh, Rollins and Carisi went away for a week with the kids.
And Curry--
that's a story for another time.
- Say no more.
I think it's best we do this elsewhere.
My guys in Narcotics say Los Sin Fe started in Mexico,
then popped up in San Diego two years ago.
- OK, who's in charge? - This guy.
Alejandro José Guevara,
AKA El Chiquito.
- The Little One. Cute.
- He's wanted for distribution, money laundering,
and he has a rep for ambition.
- That's why he's expanding into human trafficking.
- He's just diversifying his portfolio.
- So he sends a crew all the way to the east coast to do it?
- Well, a guy like this doesn't get where he is
without friends, so he probably
had a connect here who was already
in the trafficking business.
- Any idea who the connect was? - No.
But Narcotics made a call into San Diego,
and they think they know who Velasco might be with.
- OK. - Arturo Aguilar.
He's a shot caller, point man, and enforcer.
- Rap sheet for intent to distribute.
May or may not be good for a dozen murders.
- Yeah, but nothing they can tie him down to.
Now, San Diego said he did catch a crowbar to the dome
from a rival gang member, and rumor is
he hasn't been the same since. - Not the same how?
- Oh, yeah, well, a couple of months ago,
he thought one of his guys was skimming.
He tied him to his bumper and drove for 10 miles
before he hit the brakes. - OK, so he's a liability.
Why hand him the job?
- Because he happens to be Chiquito's younger cousin,
and Aguilar idolizes him.
Velasco, how's he? - Uh, on edge.
Not himself.
- He's putting a lot on the line
trying to save these girls.
He's still got some SVU in him.
- I'm betting the cartel pays his bail.
He's out by the end of the day.
- Along with the others we arrested.
By the time their court date rolls around,
they'll be long gone. - Well,
we need to rescue these women before that happens.
Hey, Madison, are you hungry?
Can I get you anything to eat or drink?
- No. - OK.
Listen to me.
I want you to know that you're not in trouble.
You're safe here. - You don't know that.
- I do absolutely know that.
- You have to help her.
- OK, who's that?
- Brittany.
My sister.
They still have her.
- OK.
OK, Madison, so
anything that you can tell me
about where they held you,
anything that you can tell me
about the identity of these men will be
very helpful in me finding her.
Can you do that?
- We were...
working for this guy running an escort thing.
- What is the name of this guy that you worked for?
- It was Tony.
I don't know his last name.
- That's OK. - Um...
he said we're gonna do something different,
and we're gonna meet at this motel.
So I--
we go there,
and there were these five other guys
I'd never seen before.
And he told us
that they sold us.
[somber music]
- OK.
- And Brittany was terrified,
and she started screaming and crying,
and I tried to get her out,
but they put these hoods on our heads
and then pushed us into a truck.
And there were other girls there.
- And that's when they brought you to New York?
- Yes, and then the truck stopped moving,
and they pushed us out into this room,
and then they took the hoods off.
- OK. Did you get a look at the room?
- It was almost like it was like a big closet.
And they left us in there for a really long time
until they came back.
And I was holding her hand,
but I-I couldn't hold on tight enough.
They took me, and they left her.
And she was--
she was screaming,
and it's my fault.
- Did you get a look
at any of these men?
Do you remember anything about them,
anything distinctive about them?
Something about their voice or a tattoo or--
- The one guy that was, like, the boss,
he--I think he had very long, dark hair.
- OK. - And--
and he had this scar on his neck
that was like that.
- Madison, that's very... [phone buzzes]
Very useful information.
Um...
c-can you just give me one minute?
All right?
Hey, Bruno, I can't talk right now.
- Yeah, I know, but you're gonna want to hear this.
You got a visitor.
Agent Maggie Weber, DEA.
- OK, uh,
have her wait in my office.
Hey, Agent Weber.
- Captain Benson.
Heard you saved the lives
of six trafficking victims yesterday.
- I assume you're here about the suspects that we arrested.
I'm sure they're getting transferred
into federal custody as we speak.
- No doubt.
So tell me about this tip you got.
- Uh, it came in on the main line.
It was routed to us, and luckily, it was credible.
- One thing about me, Captain, I don't really believe in luck.
- One thing about me, Agent,
is I like to get straight to the point.
- Joe Velasco.
I know the tip came from my undercover.
- You're his handler.
So we were very careful with his arrest.
- I don't doubt that.
My issue is that he wasn't when he went around me.
Velasco told me about the trafficking.
I kicked it up the chain,
but DEA brass decided intervening
would jeopardize the Los Sin Fe op.
- So you're here to tell me to let those women be sacrificed?
- No. Mm-mm.
I'm here to make sure that whatever you do next
doesn't get my guy killed.
- Sounds like you're worried about him.
- Well, he's solid.
But lately, he's been reporting less
and spending more time inside.
- Why do you think that is? - I don't know.
But since he was your guy not long ago,
I thought you might.
- [sighs]
All I know is that I have a victim
whose sister is still missing,
along with other women who are being trafficked.
- And I want that off my conscience, too,
which is why I want to cooperate off the books.
- So how about we start by trying to identify the captors?
- OK.
- Uh, long, dark hair, ear to ear--
- Scar. Hector Lozano.
He's Los Sin Fe's east coast trafficking connect.
I'm always sorry the guy who cut his throat
didn't finish the job.

- [sobs]
- Eliana, stop.
You think I'm an idiot? - Arturo!
- Huh?
- No, no, I just want out, please.
- Put the gun down!
- Please, please, I won't talk. I just want to go.
Please. - What is it, huh?
Fear or guilt? - No.
It's not me.
- Are you the rat? Answer me!
Huh?
Are you the rat? - It's not me.
- It's me!
I'm the rat!
And I'm a cop.
The police are on their way.
You can still get out alive if you put the gun down.

How bad?
- Well, the bullet lodged in your lung.
It didn't punch through, but it collapsed it.
- Sergeant said another inch,
we wouldn't be having this conversation.
- The victims? - They're safe.
- Eliana? - She's safe too.
Velasco, she must be, uh,
quite a woman
to get you involved in all of this.
- Yeah, I told her.
- I would like to see her.
- Uh, Eliana is in the federal protective custody
along with Aguilar.
- Feds want to charge him with murder and trafficking
and Eliana as an accessory.
- She didn't ask for any of this.
- Which is why we interrupted Carisi's week off,
and he is trying to work on a deal with the U.S. attorney.
And if Eliana tells us everything
about Los Sin Fe,
then she'll get into Witness Protection.
- I screwed up bad
trying to do it at all.
I tried to save everything.
- Velasco,
you took so many risks,
and you lied to us,
and I get why,
but let's not confuse that with OK.
- I don't know what I'm gonna do.
I know I gotta talk to the DEA.
I'm sure they're gonna cut me loose.
- I don't know.
Agent Weber has had your back since the beginning.
Maybe she still does.
My take is they'd be crazy
to let a cop like you go.
