Summary

Leigh Leigh was only 14 years old in November 1989. Going to her very first "teenager party" should have been a fun rite of passage, but the night ended with a vibrant young girl's torture and death. Meg discusses how the media and the community blamed Leigh Leigh for her rape and murder which sparked a nationwide commentary on victim-blaming and a culture that shames women when they've done nothing wrong.
