Thanks for this reporting. Like many of those who commented on the article, I am in awe of the women who did what they did was right on behalf of the greater good. I will stand a little taller today knowing these stories of bravery in the face of abuse.

Without a clear definition for CONSENT in penal law, sexual predators never face justice. Police and prosecutors ignore and even ridicule the claims of their victims. You can help make a difference by supporting the consent bills that are currently pending in NY State. A7523a and S4196a. Watch my TEDx Talk- and call your legislators to demand change. Turn your human right of consent into a civil right backed by law! Joyce Short
