About this listen

As a college freshman, Shannon Keeler did everything she was told to do after being SA'd in her dorm room. She reported it immediately, completed an SA kit, named her attacker, and brought witnesses forward. Prosecutors still walked away, then destroyed the evidence. Years later, the man she says SAd her, Ian Cleary, flooded her Facebook with rambling messages that ended in a typed confession. Even then, the District Attorney refused to act until Shannon went public and national outrage forced their hand, triggering an international manhunt that finally dragged Cleary back from Europe. Tonight, Katie unpacks how one survivor’s persistence, the power of the press, and an Interpol red notice turned a “closed” file into a guilty plea and a sentence that has many asking if justice really caught up.
