Julie Medina, a prosecutor who specializes in domestic violence, poses for a portrait outside of the Douglas County Courthouse in Omaha, Neb. on Jan. 27, 2011. Medina, who was raped more than a decade ago, speaks at local schools, which now must comply with a new state law requiring them to educate middle and high school students about relationships and dating violence. "I learned really early on that I did nothing wrong," Medina said. "But if you keep it quiet, it lets these perpetrators continue." | Chicago Freelance Photographer | Alyssa Schukar | Photojournalist
