Start your journey here with a full team introduction to the cases and our mission for legal reform.
It usually starts with something small. A neighbor hears yelling. A call is made. A report is filed. And then … nothing changes.
Until it does
In Irvine, California, Brandi Mares was murdered in her own home. And not far from that same community, another domestic violence case involving Sergio Garcia ended in a tense seven-hour police standoff.
Two cases. Two very different moments in time. But the same unsettling question underneath both: could this have been prevented?
Domestic violence cases are often seen as private disputes. Complicated, messy, and hard to intervene in. But behind that label are real decisions made by law enforcement and the justice system that can determine whether someone lives or dies.
So what happens when those systems fail to act fast enough? Or when bias, stereotypes, or procedure get in the way of protection?
This is SCREWED, where we cover the story of Brandi Mares and Sergio Garcia, and what their cases reveal about how law enforcement and the justice system respond to domestic violence.
