Most abuse victims are not believed. Prosecutions are difficult if done at all.

Video evidence of the ongoing assault is compelling. Plus cellphone evidence is the culture of the young.

Calling for help sets up a he said/she said. But she captured the crime for prosecution that couldn’t be brushed off.

I salute her courage.
