      What is the cost of winning?

      How to say something that you can't prove? How to express a thing that even feels ashamed of yourself? For these girls, the initial dreams were kind and beautiful, simple and persistent-but why should they meet such a person and such a thing? The seemingly approachable doctor, when he begged the newspaper not to report, we would still show mercy to him. Isn’t that funny-we ​​have sympathy, but the criminals don’t. When the girls stand up and speak, when the criminals are...

      These children are worth every protection the law can offer.

      Female police officers, female prosecutors, female judges. Before the court verdict, the prosecutor won 125 victims to speak out in court to influence the judgment, "So I asked, how much priority should be placed on communicating that the fullest weight of the law will be used to protect another innocent child from the soul-shattering devastation that sexual assault brings. I submit to you that these children are worth everything. Worth every protection the law can offer. Worth the maximum...

      Some emotions to express

      "The bad guys know very well what the police's conventional methods of handling cases are. Sometimes good guys are more treacherous than bad guys. The advantage of the rule of law is that the rules are very rigid, and the downside is that it is very principled."

      "If the system harms innocent citizens and makes justice impossible, then we have every reason to resist those rigid systems."

      "I don't need to please you, because the police just want to stand on the side of the victims...

      Belief

      Whenever I hear the melancholic movement, I recall the hurt of the memories, whenever I see the white moonlight and think of your face, I know I shouldn’t think about it, but I think about the confusion, who makes me sad and who makes me worry , It’s you, I know the things that shouldn’t be said that make you feel bad, I want to know the years of floating, whether you are also homesick, if I kissed you and hugged you, maybe the ending is difficult to tell, I regret so much Looking forward,...

      Too ironic, the so-called free country has also introduced a silence system in order to win. I have always been ignorant of gymnastics, especially the very extreme movements, let alone the path that this sport pursues towards a young state... Team veterinarians do whatever they want on these hotbeds built by joint efforts... And it's not an isolated case or a case... All sports The power and beauty that I wanted to create at the beginning were all lost in the crazy...

      The process of seeing tears ran for several times. . . The patient really obeyed the doctor, so don’t blame those young ladies for not resisting at the time. It is very brave to stand up...

      Regarding the beginning and end of this incident, I personally think that NPR's podcast Believed is more organized. And I always feel that the use of some lenses, the close-up of women's bodies, appearing in documentaries on this subject can only play a provocative role, which somewhat hinders the objective discussion of institutional...

      A documentary with both depth and breadth, the editing of each line is very good, rational and emotional, three-dimensional and comprehensive. In addition to the narratives of the women who braved what happened and the advancing records of journalists' coverage, the athletic history, core of training, and structural breakdown of the U.S. National Gymnastics team was discussed. The handling of muted Larry's instructional video is excellent, and the contrast to the footage of Larry's...
