I opened my laptop and looked at the file folder I’d created six months ago. Inside were thousands of documents.

He was healing. He was free.
And Lauren Sterling was in a prison cell, where she’d remain for the next eight years, thinking about the Instagram post that destroyed her life. That’s justice.
