Had she left the marriage, today she might be the spurned wife of a retired politician instead of the first American woman to run for president on a major party ticket.

Alyssa Mastromonaco worked for Barack Obama for almost a decade and long before his run for president. From the then-senator's early days in Congress to his years in the Oval Office, she made Hope and Change happen through blood, sweat, tears and lots of briefing binders.

It would be the first case for Clinton as a courtroom lawyer and she would later state that she wanted the court to excuse her from having to represent Taylor, which was denied by the judge. What really happened behind the scenes during Shelton's trial? Did Hillary know that Thomas was a rapist? Did she work to conceal forensic evidence?
