Video: Critics Charge DOD’s Efforts to Fight Sexual Assault Lack Substance

Jennifer Hlad reports for Stars and Stripes on the fight to change how the military deals with sexual assault, featuring the work of Protect Our Defenders and Rep. Jackie Speier:

As an officer, Klay’s report went straight to a colonel. But she said she still faced retaliation and harassment in what she and her husband say was an attempt to discredit her and paint the incident as a consensual act. The officer Klay accused was court-martialed and convicted of adultery and indecent language, but not sexual assault or rape.
