Despite Guilty Verdict, Advocates Vow to #StandWithNanHui - NBC News.com

My article for NBC News Asian America on #standwithnanhui Nan-Hui Jo verdict
"We are very disappointed and saddened to hear that the jury decided to convict Nan-Hui Jo today," said Hyejin Shim, a volunteer from Korean American Coalition to End Domestic Abuse (KACEDA) who has been observing the trial. "However, we know that when it comes to the criminal legal system, it is very common for survivors of domestic violence to be criminalized and blamed, not supported. What happened today is precisely why so many survivors fear our justice systems."
