My recap and review of Law & Order SVU "Street Revenge" can be found at this link.
Law & Order SVU “Street Revenge” Air Date April 25, 2012 (10 PM ET/9C Wednesday NBC) (Update April 16, 2012: air date changed to April 25 by NBC)
THE SPECIAL VICTIMS UNIT MUST CONTEND WITH A NEIGHBORHOOD VIGILANTE GROUP
A string of rapes in West Soho inspires a group of vigilantes to organize against both neighborhood crime and the NYPD. While Reporter Dennis Griscomb (guest star Gavin Lee) takes every opportunity to publicly criticize police efforts, the SVU squad struggles to find a lead in the case until one of the vigilantes is attacked. As the other detectives fight for control over the investigation and angry citizens, Amaro (Danny Pino) is distracted by the suspicion that his wife (guest star Laura Benanti) is seeing another man (guest star Dominic Fumusa.) Also starring Mariska Hargitay (Detective Olivia Benson), Ice-T (Detective Odafin Tutuola), Dann Florek (Captain Donald Cragen), Richard Belzer (Sergeant John Munch), and Kelli Giddish (Detective Amanda Rollins).

In light of recent events in the news- the Trayvan Martin case, namely, the idea of 'vigilante justice' is either well-timed in this SVU episode or poorly-timed depending on your point of view.
@Ohsusannah- It might not go like that. Can't assume anything from the description.. It's just name it might not be a ripped from the headlines case.
We have to wait and see, I'm sure it won't be a big deal.
Is it just me or does this sound a lot like the 'Law & Order' season 19 episode 'Crimebusters'?
This sounds a lot like that episode that had Kathy Griffin? either last season or the one before that...
Yurune - I haven't seen anything more on this series, other than one news story saying there was going to be a series. I never even saw a press release or anything like it from Wolf Films. I honestly don't think there is any news on this, sorry!
Yurune and Chris - The latest I have on this is that they are still awaiting development funds to be finalized so that they can proceed with the scripting process. Also, at this stage Law and Order: Cape Town is not greenlit.
This info I have from an email exchange with Marlow de Mardt, who will be one of the Executive Producers of the project.
