In 1978, Mary Vincent was an outgoing, loved by everyone 15 year old competitive dancer. Her dance instructors were confident Mary could have a career in dance if that is what she chose to do. But one night when Vincent was hitchhiking to her grandfather’s house in California, from Las Vegas, the future she’d envisioned for herself was torn away. Not just her future, either — what happened to Mary Vincent that night, and the events that unfolded in the decades following, have changed California law.
