So it was like a pre-recruitment event and something that I attended as a freshman.

It's essentially like get to know all the houses, scope out some girls that you're really interested in recruiting.

It was an important time for me because I was representing my sorority.

Justin was not picked up by this legacy fraternity that he wanted to be in, as we know.

He decided to show up to the Greek barbecue because he knew there was nothing I could do, but that it would antagonize me and disrupt me and further hurt my credibility and my sorority's ability to recruit because I was wearing letters.

I was wearing a shirt that said the name of my sorority on it.

And I'm...

Crying and distraught, not to use his word, but looking crazy in front of all these potential new members, all the people that are already in other Greek organizations and my own, thinking, what the heck is her problem?

No, I started panicking and crying and a pledge sister who I'm still good friends with to this day pulls me aside because she knew what was going on.

So we were like around the corner hiding as I'm sobbing, freaking out.

By this point, I had figured out that if I wanted to report a violation of the no contact agreement, I had to report it to the Office of the Dean of Students.

So I called the Office of the Dean of Students and they sent people from their office down to the Greek barbecue to see what was going on.

But what I did not know at the time was that Justin had an advocate because I was allowed a victim advocate in the victim advocate's office.

So because of that sexy little due process, his advocate came through the Office of the Dean of Students.

And I did not know that until I read Dr. Madera's book.

Correct.

Or at least to assess the situation.

Like, okay, we got a call that a no contact agreement is being violated.

I'll go down there and take a look.

I didn't know she was his advocate because that completely changes the tone of that for me.
