  • Mikayla Miller

    Mikayla Miller
    Aug 11 2021

    Mikalya Miller was a 16 year old black girl who was a part of the LGBTQ+ community in Hopkinton, MA. But the morning after she was assaulted by a group of teens in April 2021, Miller's body was found "hanging" from a tree in the forest. The Middlesex County District Attorney's Office immediately called her death a suicide. However, Miller's friends, family, and many activists are adamant this was a homicide and are requesting an independent study. Join us as we explore the details of the case, the the discrepancies in the investigation, and the glaring issues with the DA's ruling. Was this a suicide? Or was it in actually a lynching and a murder cover up?

  • De Anza College R*pe Investigation

    De Anza College R*pe Investigation
    Aug 4 2021
    The 2007 De Anza rape investigation was a police inquiry into allegations of sexual assault of a minor arising from an off-campus party on March 4, 2007. The investigation focused on eight members of the 2007 De Anza College baseball team. The allegations were investigated by the Santa Clara County, California Sheriff's Department, and reviewed by Santa Clara County District Attorney Dolores Carr. June 4, 2007, Carr stated that no charges would be filed. This decision was questioned by many, and the Office of the California Attorney General Jerry Brown was invited by the prosecutor to perform an independent investigation of the available evidence. May 2, 2008, the Attorney General's office determined that there was insufficient evidence to charge anyone present with a crime.
