Last week we heard from Lauren, a young woman who was raped by an acquaintance after helping him pick up furniture from a store and bring it to his home. If you haven’t already listened, please go back and listen to The Story of Lauren Part 1 before continuing with this episode.

Today we'll follow Lauren's unsatisfying experience with police and the court system as well as learn how she prevailed and took back control of her life.
