Episode description

Original Air Date: January 9, 1987

Oprah talks to a three-member panel about the crimes committed against them, how their perpetrators were sentenced to lengthy prison terms and how they feel knowing that the criminals can be out or are already out, in one person's case, much sooner than expected.
