'Law and Order: SVU' season 17 episode 20 spoilers: Photographer ties to get away from his crimes, familiar faces return in 'Fashionable Crimes'

Richard Belzer returns as Munich in "Law and Order: SVU" season 17 episode 20.NBC

When "Law and Order: SVU" season 17 returns with episode 20 from its month-long hiatus, Benson and the team will be dealing with a crime of fashion done in style by a famous fashion photographer.

In the "Law and Order: SVU" season 17 episode, which is very aptly titled "Fashionable Crimes," this well-known photographer is charged of raping a young model working for him.

When the controversy finds its way to the press, the rapist seeks the help of his influential brother to get it all under control, help him dodge arrest and eventually run free.

For this case, "Law and Order: SVU" season 17 brings back Richard Belzer's Munich, who has been investigating the photographer even before the rape case. Whether or not what he gathered from that task will be enough to beat out the criminal's brother's reputation remains a mystery.

Munich was last seen on the show back in season 15 and the cast and crew of "Law and Order: SVU" were ecstatic being able to work with Belzer once more.

"We love having Richard back on set "This episode was perfect for Munch's cynical eye, and just the right time for him to give Benson and Noah some much needed support," executive producer Warren Leight told Entertainment Weekly.

Speaking of returning cast members, the "Law and Order: SVU" season 17 finale also packs quite a star-studded lineup for fans. Bill Irwin will return as Benson's therapist Dr. Peter Lindstrom.

Also guest-starring in the season 17 finale is actor Brad Garrett, who will play the role of Rikers correction officer Gary Munson, who Benson's team will be after in the episode.

"I read the season finale and I was so deeply moved and deeply inspired. I couldn't put it down...couldn't stop crying," Benson's essayer Mariska Hargitay told E! Online of the "Law and Order: SVU" season 17 ender.

"Law and Order: SVU" season 17 episode 20 "Fashionable Crimes" airs May 4 on NBC.
