In a podcast interview, the actor recalled her recovery process after the 1999 attack and the ‘restorative-justice conversation’ with her attacker
Ashley Judd has said that she met the man who raped her in 1999 and had a “restorative-justice conversation” with him.
Judd was speaking on the Healing With David Kessler podcast about the recovery process after the sexual assault, saying: “It was crazy-making because I knew better. I was very clear, my boundaries were intact. I was already an empowered, adult feminist woman. And that this could happen under these circumstances was unconscionable [and] unforeseen.”
