Welcome back lovely listeners!

Katie brings us the case of Chanel Miller, a smart, strong 21-year-old who is beautiful inside and out! She goes to a party with her sister, when she meets Brock Turner. Yes, THAT Brock Turner. As you listen to her story you will see how she over comes the media gossip, Brock's horrible parents, and the strength she gains through out everything and just how beautiful she is, her mind, and her writing.

We love you Chanel Miller. You are strong!
