Ice-T‘s role on the long-running NBC drama “Law & Order: Special Victims Unit” was cut down to four episodes this season this far, and it’s not sitting well with viewers.
The “Colors”rapper and actor — born Tracy Lauren Marrow — was originally hired to appear in just four episodes of the series as Detective Odafin “Fin” Tutuola. That was back in 2000, and he has since become an integral part of every episode and most storylines on the cop show.
The brutal Season 27 premiere saw Tutuola ambushed and shot after his gun was stolen — a storyline that later became the unsettling explanation for his reduced role this season, eight episodes in.
