Victoria Burke recounts her horrifying realization: waking up in a hospital from a severe coma with no memory of how she got there—just a night out turned nightmare.
Burke notes the chilling advice from a lawyer friend: avoid naming the individual who assaulted her for fear of defamation lawsuits, highlighting a legal barrier for many victims.
Advocates, including Jennifer Mondino, emphasize that while defamation suits can protect the accused, they predominantly serve to intimidate and silence victims from coming forward.
