Victim/Suspect

Watching crime documentaries can be very interesting, and one such movie is Victim/Suspect, directed and produced by Nancy Schwartzman, which was released in 2023.

In this compelling 90-minute movie, the story begins with a young woman who finds herself in a harrowing situation. Despite being a genuine victim of rape, she is accused by the police of lying about her ordeal.

This alarming scenario captures the interest of Rae de Leon, an investigative journalist. Rae becomes deeply concerned upon discovering that this isn't an isolated case. Several sexual assault victims, who bravely reported their attacks to the police, found themselves unjustly arrested and charged with fabricating their stories.

Driven by a desire to uncover the truth, Rae de Leon aims to bring these overlooked and mishandled cases to light, challenging the authorities' neglect and seeking justice for the wrongfully accused.
