I have been reading through the comments left here and I am truly humbled by the strength people are showing in sharing their own difficult experiences. Taking this step has been overwhelming for me personally but knowing that so many others understand the urgency of this change keeps me focused on the road ahead.

I am honestly overwhelmed by how many of you have stepped up to support this cause. If we could push just a little further to hit that first hundred mark it would mean the world to me and show that people are truly paying attention.

Families suffer for years after these crimes while the legal process drags on without any support. Serious change is needed.
Still makes me sick thinking about that case. We need to do better for victims families.
It is about time the system actually looked after the families instead of just worrying about the criminals rights. Claire deserved so much better.
My heart goes out to the family. No one should ever have to go through what they did and then be treated like an afterthought by the courts.
LONG OVERDUE. Fix this broken system now.

Completely agree. The law fails so many people it is shocking.
