 On May 20th, 2022, Bella Gonzales died just five days after her 24th birthday. Her case was quickly ruled a suicide by law enforcement. After her death, Bella's family received her journals and uncovered a dark secret: she was a victim of physical, emotional, psychological, and financial abuse. Now, her family is fighting for attention, answers, and justice. Billie Gonzales is Bella's mother and the President of Shine Bright Like Bella. She joins to discuss how she's fighting for investigative reform and widespread legislation to address cases related to intimate partner violence. She also discusses her daughter's life and the extraordinary legacy she leaves behind.
