This seven-part investigative series from The Washington Post follows the Alabama woman’s decision to come forward with a claim of sexual assault against a high-ranking figure in the D.C. criminal justice system, and the spiraling effects of that choice. “Canary: The Washington Post Investigates” is about the intertwining stories of these two women, separated by decades and united by a shared refusal to stay silent. It’s a podcast about what it takes to report this story — and why it matters. Hosted by investigative reporter Amy Brittain.

Amy is such a good story teller and a thoughtful journalist who is obviously totally committed to accurately reporting the facts. This story opens up the most disturbing aspects of sexual assault. Namely, that very powerful people are engaging in this activity and enabling others to do the same. From the halls of power, this sickness radiates throughout society and true consequences are rarely applied. Only by acknowledging this can we hope to address this hidden epidemic.

Great podcast! The sixth episode was infuriating, all these people singing his praises, condemning the woman for coming forward. Many predators have good qualities, but they’re still predators. What this man did was abhorrent. No amount of good works excuses him.
Intricate and interesting

This story is absolutely fascinating. Two seemingly unrelated situations tie two women together in a journey where they get to be defined not by what happened to them but by how they showed up for themselves and their communities. The episode where the two subjects finally meet is affirming and beautiful and makes me proud to be a woman. Let’s go ladies (and gents and nbs) who participated and worked on this!
mother blamed 16 year old daughter

I never heard the term grooming ascribed to the judge. The Alabama woman was groomed beginning at the age of 13 by her father’s “best friend”. It could be that she hasn’t been able to heal her trauma because she hasn’t recognized and accepted the role that her parents played in that trauma: Her mother should have gone to her husband with her concerns. Her husband should have immediately had a private conversation with his “best friend” and insured that his daughter was never in the presence of that groomer again. Tragically, instead, her mother made her 16 year old daughter responsible for an adult man’s pedophilic grooming when she told her to spend her time with the cousins. Now that is some deep, deep trauma.
