Episode Details

Why do perpetrators get independent legal representation and not victims? Sarah Rosenberg found out first-hand the overwhelming bureaucracy, and lack of resources and representation for victim-survivors when reporting crimes such as sexual assault. Abbie sits down with Sarah to explore how the system is actually geared against victims to have a fair fight, and her work to change it and give victims more agency through her organisation With You We Can.
