Cindy Marino (Law & Order: SVU)

Cindy Marino (Kali Rocha) is a minor villainess from "Haystack", episode 8.15 of Law & Order: SVU (airdate February 20, 2007). She was a sleazy reporter for Channel 10 News who began covering the case of Kendall Kozlowski, a young boy who was kidnapped from his single mother Laura. Cindy made her first appearance hounding Captain Donald Cragen and Detective Elliot Stabler as they left Laura's apartment, having found several of Kendall's things in the garbage. Wanting to appease the persistent reporter, Elliot revealed that they had found Kendall's sonogram in Laura's garbage.
Later, Cindy went to Laura's apartment to interview her, but it quickly turned south when Cindy insensitively questioned her about her past marijuana use before viciously accusing her of killing her son. Laura became angered and ordered Cindy out of her home, later killing herself due to the emotional strain of both her son's disappearance and the harassment she was facing due to Cindy's accusation. After finding Laura's body, Stabler walked out of Laura's apartment with Cragen to find Cindy waiting along with numerous other reporters, asking questions regarding the investigation with callous indifference to Laura's death. Stabler called Cindy out on her behavior and Cindy shot back with an insult toward the police force. Stabler almost attacked Cindy before Cragen stopped him, with Cindy smirking the entire time. When Kendall was left alive outside a fire station, Stabler ran into Cindy again when she was with a throng of reporters. Stabler told another reporter that, contrary to Cindy's libelous accusations, Kendall had been found alive, outing Cindy for the unethical reporter that she was.
