Believed
We all think we’d be able to spot a predator like Larry Nassar, the disgraced Olympic gymnastics doctor who sexually abused patients for decades. Of course you would believe a girl or a young woman who came to you looking for help. Right?
Believed is a story of survivors finding their power in a cultural moment when people are coming to understand how important that is.
It’s an inside look at how a team of women — a detective, a prosecutor, and an army of survivors — won justice in one of the largest serial sexual abuse cases in U.S. history.
It’s also an unnerving exploration of how even well-meaning adults can fail to believe.
