#446: “Victim/Suspect” | Part 1

In 2015, Emma Mannion, an 18 year old college student at the University of Alabama in Tuscaloosa was raped in a parking lot outside of a popular bar. What happened next is almost as shocking as the sexual assault. When Emma went to the police to report this crime, not only did they not believe her, but they arrested her for making a false report. According to the new Netflix documentary “Victim/Suspect” Emma’s case is not an isolated incident. Investigative journalist Rachel de Leon from the Center for Investigative Reporting takes us on a horrible journey as she uncovers case after case of victims not being believed and then prosecuted. You’ll want to hear our reaction to this stunning documentary.
