The experience of the Kansas City, Kansas group raises urgent questions: How could this have been prevented? What allowed decades of abuse to persist—and what might have changed with real transparency? Legal experts, law enforcement and advocates will examine failures like sealed disciplinary records, weak oversight, and policies that let officers avoid accountability. The conversation also explores concrete paths to justice for the women involved, those who have come forward and those still too afraid to speak.
