Get back to your old life
She quotes: “I’d like my life back. I’ve been trying to move on for eight years”. Unemployed and still living with her parents, Emily is consumed by this court case and wants it to end. “I hope this is the last time I’ll have to come here,” she says, her voice full of emotion. Emily has traveled extensively between France and her native Canada.

Emily had to undergo psychotherapy to “forget” that evening on April 22, 2014, about which she still has nightmares.
