i need to actually pull my fucking shit together and focus on everything that's ahead of me, instead of everything i lost. it's not coming back. i have to move on, or else i'll die here, frozen in time where nothing ever changes.
The work is not over for the 12 ordinary members of society who sat on the jury for the Athena Strand case. In this trial, they had to listen to over an hour of the most heartbreaking audio imaginable—something that leaves a permanent mark on the soul!
Tarrant County, where this jury served, has officially triggered a "Juror Resource Guide" to provide these men and women with the mental health support they need.
This includes free counseling with Master’s-level therapists to help them process the soul-crushing evidence they had to endure. Jurors can also access specialized trauma debriefing.
Let’s take a second to send some peace to that jury today. They carried a weight for all of us. 💖
