    Join us for a screening of Victim/Suspect a documentary that chronicles the story of several young women who report sexual assault to the police, but instead of finding justice, they're charged with the crime of making a false report, arrested, and even imprisoned by the system they believed would protect them. After the screening, the following experts will conduct a panel discussion after the film: Cordelia Coppleson, Assistant Illinois Attorney General; Annette Milleville, Director of Policy and Strategic Initiatives at the Chicago Children¿s Advocacy Center; Iain Pedden, Lieutenant Colonel, Marines' Victim Legal Counsel; and Lisa Avalos, Law Professor, Louisiana State University. The event is free and open to the public. Pizza will be provided.
