An interesting read: INTERVIEW
This exchange stuck with me as a Penn State alum:
On why some people may feel reluctant to acknowledge her innocence
Acknowledging my innocence costs people something. It costs them the realization that they scapegoated a person who could very well have just been them, that they've consumed as entertainment the worst experience of someone's life. And I think that the cost of that means that people are resistant to the idea of recognizing that I truly am a victim of these circumstances. And I'm still fighting a wrongful conviction to this day.
