🔹 Jurors deserve to see the full picture.
🔹 Patterns of predatory behavior matter.
🔹 Survivors who bravely recount trauma in the pursuit of justice deserve a legal system that does not undermine the ability of jurors to reach fully informed decisions.
RAINN will keep fighting for survivors and advocating for a justice system equipped to respond fairly and fully to sexual violence. If this case brought up difficult feelings for you, RAINN's National Sexual Assault Hotline is here.
