Some journalists actively dislike survivors and have done pieces meant to undermine them, which I’ve also encountered. But I really don’t trust cops or courts to do the right thing when it comes to sexual violence. Their track record is worse than abysmal. They actively cause harm every day.

involving LOEs is the equivalent of throwing fuel on an out-of-control fire.

so then what do you do? all i know is how community assistance worked in my experience. It made all the difference & i owe my life to such wise, caring, good folks.

Just take the Epstein case as one example. Decades of ongoing inaction and refusal to investigate or prosecute perpetrators and enablers of systemic sexual abuse of young women and girls. Survivors and journalists are the ones exposing Epstein and his accomplices while feds refuse to.

Ultimately, survivors are the ones shouldering the most burden, doing the most work. Always. And I would respect and support a survivor’s decisions to pursue any path of their choosing. And journalism in its current state isn’t enough, either. But this is why some survivors choose journalism.

Yes and the U.S. Olympics gymnastics case involving Nassar that went on for YEARS when dozens of girls were speaking up. It’s actually disgusting.
