Worthy of Justice: Prosecuting Image-Based Sexual Abuse from Pamela, A Love Story to Another Body

AEquitas Attorney Advisor Kerri New joins to discuss the real-world crimes behind two powerful documentaries—Pamela, a Love Story and Another Body—to explore the evolving landscape of image-based sexual abuse. From stolen and released intimate tapes to AI-generated deepfakes, they unpack how these crimes occur, why victims so often face barriers when seeking justice, and how the trauma continues long after the images are created or released. Drawing on Kerri’s decades of prosecutorial experience, the conversation highlights the investigative challenges of digital evidence, the critical role prosecutors play in supporting victims, and how today’s laws are finally beginning to catch up with technology. Together, Jennifer and Kerri underscore the inherent worthiness of each victim dignity, protection, and justice.
