On the front

Legal representatives of the domestic violence industry

Lisalyn R. Jacobs. Not a volunteer with a pamphlet. A lawyer who sat inside the machine: Legal Momentum’s vice president for government relations, then the Justice Department — policy work implementing the Violence Against Women Act, chief of staff in the Civil Rights Division, special counsel to the Violence Against Women Office.

Daddy Justice put a camera on her in the Senate buildings during a VAWA hearing. She was charged with assault. She took a plea. These two films are the record he kept.

Office: DOJ / VAWA, then Legal Momentum
Films: The charge. Then the plea.
