Sarah Trent is a teacher accused of having sex with one of her students, Shane Mills, after he found out he had gonorrhea, only to learn Shane was the rapist.
Sarah discovered she was pregnant and terminated the pregnancy, disappointing her pro-life husband. Shane was a sex addict, and despite his actions, Sarah begs the DA for leniency for him stating she can live with her pain and refuses to ruin his life. Shane was sent to a rehabilitation center for treatment but was later raped himself and was to finish his treatment at home. (SVU: "Impulsive")
