Law & Order: Special Victims Unit has been recently filming in Rockland County.

Law & Order: SVU was the first spinoff of the NBC American crime drama television series Law & Order, starring Christopher Meloni as Detective Elliot Stabler and Mariska Hargitay as Detective Olivia Benson as officers with the Special Victims Unit, having previously worked with a fictionalized version of the New York City Police Department.

The show follows the style of the original Law & Order in that some episodes are loosely based on real crimes that have received media attention.

Series Filming in Rockland County

Law & Order: SVU has been in the Hudson Valley area this month, with Detective Olivia Benson apparently on the scene in Nyack, NY. The series was reportedly filming in the Village of Nyack on Friday, March 10 and Monday, March 13. The Hudson Valley is no stranger to the Law & Order crew, as Elliot Stabler himself was spotted, hanging out in Newburgh a couple years back.
