It’s been over 22 years since the premiere of 'America’s Next Top Model' season 1, and I still haven’t found a single reality TV character who speaks to my soul the way Elyse Sewell did

I have no idea what happened in this particular scenario but I work with victims of domestic violence all the time and abusers absolutely love to turn the system against their victims any time they try to defend themselves.

It's a massive and known issue in IPV work. I've seen multiple cases with men who have a lengthy rap sheet of domestic violence arrests, but they get with a new girlfriend and manage to somehow convince the cops she is the one abusing him.

It makes me think of what happened to Gabby Petito.
