Jade Blue shares her devastating journey through the legal system after waking up to discover she had been raped. Despite facing numerous setbacks, including the CPS dropping her case under claims of sexsomnia, Jade courageously waived her anonymity to fight for justice and awareness, and ultimately sued the CPS for their mishandling of her case. Jade now emphasises the importance of transparency and reform, aiming to protect future victims and expose the inadequacies within the justice system.
