Danielle Tudor's path to reforming Oklahoma's rape victim laws began one night, 38 years ago, as she sat at home alone watching a movie.

She was a high school senior in Portland, Oregon, living in a neighborhood that had been targeted by a man known as the city's “jogger rapist.” The attacker kicked down her door and the two locked eyes. She ran. He followed. She couldn't get away. He did.

Tudor was 17; she'd already planned her wedding and dreamed of having a family when she grew up.

“I was that girl that definitely was saving herself,” said Tudor. “I knew how I wanted everything to be, and that rape just basically took all of that from me.”
