START: ‘I am here in a unique position.
Usually I stand at the bar,
but now I am in this courtroom as a witness,
a complainant,
a victim.
As a barrister I have questioned women in sexual assault cases on the assumption
that the evidence can be delivered in a clean, logical package.

the truth is that
one in every three women are sexually assaulted.
And their voices need to be heard.
They need to be believed,
for justice to be done.’
Suzie Miller. Prima Facie. NHB (electronic edition) pp.120-123
