The morning after the girl Marie was sexually assaulted in 2008, she must have never imagined that the real rapist was only arrested in 2011, thanks to the presence of female police officers like Dewar and Rasmussen in Colorado. In 2008, Mary reported to the police that she had been raped in the early hours of the morning. She told her adoptive mother, police officers, and doctors about her experience over and over again. Mary lives in an apartment in the Growth Project, a program designed to help young people make the gradual transition from foster care to an independent living environment. As she recounted her experience over and over again, her adoptive mother Judith expressed her doubts about the authenticity of the whole incident to Police Officer Parker. Under the pressure of the police officer, Mary could only admit that she had reported to the false police and that being raped was just a scene she imagined. Since then, Mary's life has been completely changed. Friends who had sympathy for her said she was the biggest liar in the world. She lost her job in the supermarket and was even prosecuted by the police for calling the false police. In an effort to speed things up, Mary accepted a plea deal and paid $500 in legal costs.
In Colorado in 2011, a spate of rape cases with almost identical modus operandi led officers Dewar and Rasmussen, who belong to different police departments, to jointly solve the case. Rasmussen is a senior in the criminal investigation world, and Dewar can only be regarded as a rookie in front of her. The cold Rasmussen and the gentle Dewar thought through analysis that this was a serial rape case, and the perpetrator should be the same person, so the two began to work together. Following clues through a Mazda with damaged rear-view mirrors, they eventually found the suspect, a middle-aged man with a Marine Corps background. They are also women who have more empathy for their victims. They will not let the victims keep recalling the painful experience over and over again. They rely more on themselves to watch the surveillance video repeatedly and study even the slightest bit of it. clue. One of the victims told the suspect in court, 'It was a night for you, but a lifetime for me. Another victim said, can you tell me why you chose me and what was my habit that made you do this? Because of you, I have not dared to maintain any habit over the years. Mary finally got her deserved innocence in 2011, and Officer Parker apologized to her in person. Mary claimed $150,000 from the government, got her driver's license, left Woods, Washington, and started a new chapter in her life. At the end of the episode, she calls Officer Dewar and she says, "Thank you for all you do. I've spent my life trying to convince myself that most people are generally good people, even if the people I used to know weren't, This gives me hope. After a series of events, I have a hard time believing that there is a bright side to the world. It's the hardest thing to accept. I wake up every day feeling hopeless. Then I heard that far away, there are Two strangers caring about me and getting justice for me was more important than anything else, more important than him being locked up, more important than getting my money. Knowing about you changed everything and now I wake up , I can imagine good things happening."
The actors acted very well, the cold and professional Rasmussen, the gentle and firm Dewar and the extremely distressing Mary. In contrast, Officer Dewar impressed me a bit more. Dewar, who even speaks in an extremely gentle voice, is more persistent and firm in his approach to the case than anyone else. Beneath her seemingly gentle exterior, there is an extremely powerful heart and keen insight. Fortunately, the existence of such police officers makes the world a better place.
