Thursday, May 9, the U. S. Department of Justice held a news conference to release findings of a year-long study into the response by The University of Montana, the City Police Department and the Missoula County Attorney to the issue of sexual assaults.

The public seldom gets to hear a news conference like this in its entirety.  Due to its length, the audio will be separated into segments, with comments from each individual.

 

The opening comments are from Montana's U.S. Attorney Michael Cotter.
