I know this thread’s a bit old, but I kept thinking about it. What your friend went through is horrific, and it really stuck with me how you said she put up a helluva fight. That kind of strength doesn’t always get talked about enough.

Someone earlier mentioned looking into resources, and I wanted to add this in case it helps down the line: https://federal-lawyer.com/injury-lawsuit/sex-abuse/uber/. It’s technically about Uber, but it explains how survivors assaulted on the job, especially when alone or during night shifts, might explore legal options beyond criminal charges. I know it won’t undo what happened, but sometimes knowing there’s a civil route too can be part of feeling empowered again.
