He helped me start to put it in context. Anne-Marie has come along to the interview with Blair. Yeah, it's like coming full circle. And she comes prepared. Hi, Blair. Hi, Anne-Marie. She's wearing business attire and holds a notepad with her questions. Since she first met Blair, Anne-Marie has learned so much more about the law. Now she almost sounds like a lawyer. She jumps right in.

Sure. But I just wonder, it appears there's a discriminatory application of laws, right? If male victims can see a conviction against a former teacher for sexual assaults, but female victims can't.

As the interview wraps up, Anne-Marie and I look at each other. Blair's last comment caught our attention. We're both recalling something that Jeannie has told us. We've kept it to ourselves.
