Dublin, 2018: In the early hours, a half-dressed, disorientated woman in agony stepped out of a hotel room, into the hallway, and fled.The room she’d escaped from belonged to UFC fighter Conor McGregor. She’d gone back for an after-party, only, it hadn’t been a party at all. And hours after leaving, she’d be in an Ambulance, hospitalised with brutal injuries.And now, at the hands of McGregor and his millions of fans, she would re-live this night of horrors for 6 years. But unlike McGregor's previous opponents, this was a woman, a mother, and no matter what he threw at her, she KEPT getting back up. This is the trial of Nikita Hand vs Conor Mcgregor. Resources:The Dublin Rape Crisis Centre  - https://www.drcc.ie/https://linktr.ee/eleanornealeresourcesWatch OUTLORE Podcast:https://www.youtube.com/@EleanorNealeFollow Me Here for Updates & Short Form Content:InstagramTikTok

Tokyo, 2016: One night, just as they were returning home from a long day, best friends Jiang Ge & Liu Xin suddenly found themselves being chased by Liu Xin’s stalker ex-boyfriend, Chen Shifeng.But only 1 of the 2 girls would make it into the flat, safely away from him, while the other would find herself locked outside, trapped. Afterwards, the surviving friend who’d made it safely inside was treated as China’s public enemy number 1. To the point she’d be forced into a tearful televised interrogation…but maybe though a victim herself, there were reasons for people’s anger. Maybe she and her words weren't all as they seemed…Resources:The Suzy Lamplugh Trust - https://www.suzylamplugh.orghttps://linktr.ee/eleanornealeresourcesWatch OUTLORE Podcast:https://www.youtube.com/@EleanorNealeFollow Me Here for Updates & Short Form Content:InstagramTikTok

The Transfemicide of Brianna Ghey England, 2023:  Brianna Ghey, a 16 year old school girl was lured out of her home and to a park, where she became the victim of a violent attack, planned by a girl who she thought was her friend. But this wasn’t the first time this friend tried to take Brianna’s life…  Her name was Scarlett Jenkinson and devastatingly, this time Scarlett’s plan worked. Brianna would not survive her injuries and tragically passed away at the scene. Scarlett had enlisted the help of Eddie Ratcliffe, an unpopular boy with a hateful streak. Together they’d devised an evil murder plot for Brianna. Their whatsapp messages revealed a horrifying web of evidence. Devised kill lists, dark web obsessions and uncensored, unforgivable homophobic and transphobic messages.  Then, to know when to begin their attack on Brianna, they used the code word ‘GAY’. But despite all this, Brianna’s murder has still not been classed as a hate crime. And the trigger for Brianna’s murder in the first place? Scarlett was jealous, because Brianna was deemed prettier than her, and Biranna was trans.

San Antonio, 1994: Four Latina lesbians were accused of an unthinkable crime and spent nearly two decades in prison for something they didn’t do. In a time when queerness was treated like a crime, their identities became the only evidence needed to lock them up. But they never gave up. They spent years fighting to clear their names and fighting for each other. Today, we know them as The San Antonio Four. The accusations came from two little girls, just weeks after one of the women, Elizabeth, rejected advances from their father. In the midst of the Satanic Panic, their case sparked a moral firestorm and exposed a justice system all too willing to believe the worst about queer women. This Pride Month, we’re telling their story. Because when the world tried to silence them… they refused to stay quiet.
