Victim/Suspect

1 out of 3 women are victims of asult and those are just the ones that report it. I believe every parent should sit down with their teenager and watch this documentary.

Young girls and men who report asult every day, but are often written off or worse, criminalized themselves because it's easier than actually investigating the crime. From the time we are little, we are taught to trust the police but sometimes they can re-victimize the victim by either poor training or lack of empathy.

This documentary was extremely informative and well made. It was an eye opener, because I never knew that women who were assaulted were being convicted of "false reporting to a police officer" because of our broken justice system.

All this documentary did is reinforce,how broken the system remains.

Have been a victim & worked with victims also men falsely accused therefore went into this,with an open & unbiased mind to see how the series unfolded so here's my take..

Honestly all victims need to bring legal counsel with them,this only proves that immensely.

What is further scary.. Will make attackers feel invincible,because police are so lazy doing a proper investigation.

It begs the question do many get in law enforcement/official capacities for wrong reasons,basically protecting"boys will be boys"club or being able to bully but calling it interrogation & so forth? Not saying females in power positions are any better,some will be just as cruel if not worse.

All that was missing,if you would of dressed different garbage.. Beyond sickening & typical gaslight excuses,done by those in charge of sex crimes.

I feel worried for those who are future victims,that fail to come forward as a result of seeing this.

Hoping law enforcement change their tactics,but feel that will never happen but instead cover things up more.. Tapes that interrogate victims,etc.

Again.. Bring someone with that "you" trust & will advocate on your behalf,not just from a victims group especially if police recommended. -Some are shady & on the wrong side,of actually helping victims.

Hope those in charge or having power,start making their communities safer.

Some may ask.. If someone reports a crime,why eventually falter? Not what many perhaps think,where guilt of lying comes to surface.. Instead it's being worn down by a system,that should be fair & protect.

Most cases the investigation into the victim is greater than a person accused,so any outcome isn't factual but biased & again.. Causes a victim,to be further harmed.

A reviewer mentioned she was upset about not having,stories that included African Americans.. Perhaps it was because nobody of that ethnicity wanted to be documented on camera or was not just about representing sex crime victims,but more specifically certain law enforcement agencies handling of cases.

Still.. Watch this including with your daughters to teach them,how to protect themselves not just from attackers but legally.

I have to say the documentary was very well done. It demonstrated true journalistic work, which is of rarity today.

I was not aware how intentional police deception can be when investigating a sexual assault case, especially how the investigation can intentionally turn the victim into a suspect and railroading her into recanting his/her story. That's not investigative work. That is intentional and malicious investigation seeking to ensure the victim's claim is not deemed as the truth. That is wrong.

Very impressed with her journalism and am excited to see what she will tackle next. We need more journalists like her.

Watched this documentary with my wife and it's sad very very sad to think that the "authorities" lack so much compassion. The uniform itself should spell out how can I be of service. Why do they apply and study then get the job to protect and serve only themselves? In today's world all kids have to be so aware as to not tarnish their reputation especially on social media. Unlike when we went to school our reputation was word of mouth. These are little girls with tiny little hearts. Even when a women is all grown up with children of her own she is still herself just a little girl with a tiny little heart and they all bruise easily.

Despite the ones who gave this a low score, probably because their either incompetant police or they are more focused on trival matters instead of the big picture that these women were assaulted and the lazy or corrupt legal system let them down and jailed them for daring to report a crime commited on them, there are a lot of documentaries on how lazy, stupid and corrupt american law enforcement is and how corrupt the legal system in America is, and i don't think it will change till they get properly educated and trained officers in the police force, and start to fine the incompetant ones, the same with the prosecuters who with hold eveidance so they can win a case on a lie.
