Taylor Swift Emotional Speech On The Anniversary Of Her Sexual Assault Trial Victory
“I am so grateful to you guys for being there for me during what was a really, really horrible part of my life,” Swift told the crowd in Tampa, Florida.
Denver radio DJ David Mueller was fired from his job after Swift accused him of groping her under her skirt and reported the incident to his employers. He filed a lawsuit against her in 2015, denying the assault ever happened, and claiming up to $3 million in damages.
The DJ lost his case, and Swift countersued for a single symbolic dollar to serve as an “example to other women who may resist publicly reliving similar outrageous and humiliating acts”. She was consequently named one of Time magazine’s “Silence Breakers” for their Person of the Year issue.
While she has been posting on Instagram and Tumblr more often since the tour started, she’s nowhere near as active as she has been in the past, and posts on her Twitter account are even more rare. Before a performance of “Long Live” — a song she dedicates to her fans at every show — Swift said we have “so, so, so much further to go” when it comes to how we as a society treat victims of sexual assault.
