As a teenager, Anna Giaritelli sat in high school gym class as girls were pulled aside and told a chilling statistic: One in three women will experience sexual assault in their lifetime. Giaritelli remembers thinking, That won’t be me.

Years later, that belief was shattered. Giaritelli, now the Homeland Security reporter for the Washington Examiner, survived sexual assault at age 30 in Washington, D.C., in broad daylight. Her new book, “Under Assault: A Crime Reporter’s True Story of Overcoming Sexual Trauma and Exposing Injustice,” tells the full story of what happened to her and how she believes the criminal justice system failed her.
