Why did Meloni leave Law & Order SVU in the first place?
According to Meloni, he wanted to be paid more by NBC to portray Stabler and they refused.
“They literally came to me on a Thursday night and said, ‘This is the deal.

We want the answer by tomorrow.
It’s our way or no way.'”

See you later.'"
