Although everybody has heard about the Miranda warning, nobody really knows the background story about the circumstances that lead to the enactment of this ruling. Miranda’s Victim presents the story from all sides: Through the eyes of the attorneys, Miranda, and most importantly, his victim. Trish Weir’s persistence in obtaining Justice at a time where few women reported rapes is a crusade that still resonates today as women collectively find their voices to share their own sexual abuse stories in the ongoing MeToo movement.
This movie is not just a story. It sends a great message to all sexual assault victims on how one brave voice can have such a profound effect on the American justice system.
