Cuevas: You can tell her until you're blue in the face that the system will protect her just like anyone else, but Gloria's probably seen enough evidence that that's not true that she doesn't trust it.
Asher: I'm not asking her to do this just for other people. I'm doing it for Gloria, so that she won't have to carry the burden of this trauma. I'm not insensitive, but I've seen this before. My college roommate Annie was raped at a party and she didn't report it. I think she told herself that it didn't matter, and she convinced herself it didn't, that SHE didn't matter. She carried the burden for as long as she could and then she took her own life.
