Episode 121 - Part 2/2 - Alive But Still Not Free

After Nicole Addimando fatally shot her partner in what she claimed was self-defense, she was arrested and charged with second-degree murder. At her trial the details surrounding her history of abuse were excluded, essentially removing the context for what happened the night of the shooting from the jury.

As much as this case examines the darker side of the judicial system it also highlights human strength and the immense power of friendship, love, and compassion - the unstoppable force behind a group of women who have fought fiercely to bring not only Nikki’s truth to light but the injustice all criminalized survivors of intimate partner violence face.
