The little black book of a porno mag publisher goes missing after the former centerfold who won it at auction is murdered. Photocopies of the book reveal evidence a US Senate candidate took his ex-wife (Rosanna Arquette) to a sex club, even though she didn't want to go. Goren and Eames discover the blackmailer was the club doorman who's just turned up dead. The detectives learn the ex-wife returned to the club without her husband - got it on with everyone - and is now desperate to keep her daughter from knowing the tawdry truth. Carver falsely charges the politician with murder, all part of an elaborate ruse to elicit a confession from the ex in exchange for destroying the evidence.

We're talking about Criminal Intent season 4 episode 14 "Sex Club." Our guest from this February 26, 2020 episode is Katie Mitchell from the Date with Dateline podcast.

This episode is inspired by the political sex scandal surrounding Jack and Jeri Ryan.
