Anna, how can we help?

Hi, thank you for taking my call.

You bet.

So I just finished. I just graduated from college in December.

And I feel like I'm in a unique situation. I guess everybody does.

I wasn't able to do an internship because of COVID.

And then on top of that, I've been looking for a new job just to help pay the bills.

And I left an abusive relationship earlier in May.

And with how it ended, I had called the police and because of the nature of my,

my ex, he fabricated a police report against me that I came and like beat him up.

And, and there's, I have all the evidence in the world that I wasn't there.

I have a literal video of me at, like, walking into a hotel.

But so I'm trying to apply for new jobs in, like, how with this degree and everything,

but I'm really worried um about how I'm

going to be perceived with this charge on my record because um it's not who I am at all and

everybody who knows me would know that um but I can't prove that to a new employer and so I'm

just really not sure like how to go about this because it feels pretty

deceiving yeah that's that's heavy and I hate that that happened to you I'm glad that you had the

courage and the strength and support to leave that abusive relationship and get rid of that nonsense

you're worth more than that and I'm glad you walked away and unfortunately we live in a world
