0:00.0	On Episode 9, this podcast talked about the topic of domestic violence and how it not only
0:06.1	affected Nicole Brown Simpson, but also American culture. Kim wanted to continue this conversation,
0:13.1	so she spoke with Robin Sachs, an experienced litigator and former LA County Deputy District Attorney.
0:20.3	Robin also has a master's in social work and is nationally recognized in the fields of sexual
0:26.3	assault and domestic abuse.
0:30.0	The reason that I wanted to make sure I included you on the podcast is I love the fact that you
0:35.6	just went back and got your masters in social work. So the stuff that I want to talk to you about
0:39.7	kind of covers domestic violence. Why don't people report domestic violence and what happens if you

1:32.8	And so I think that you had to have a holistic, terrible crime that was publicly viewed when a
1:39.3	person got called out. How many times did law enforcement have to go over to OJ Simpson's house?
1:46.7	I'm curious as to how it changed the reporting from victims. I mean, all of a sudden there is a
1:51.8	comfort when people are publicly recognizing and validating the existence of something that you've
1:57.1	known and dealt with. And I think that there's so much shame that's involved in this and so much
2:02.8	judgment and that I shouldn't have gotten myself into this. And I think that that will always be
