Justice Interrupted is a podcast for anyone who believes children deserve better—and survivors deserve justice. Hosted by Ben Andreozzi, a prominent victim's attorney, and nationally recognized victim advocate Jennifer Storm, this show confronts the failures of systems meant to protect children and amplifies the voices of those working to change them.

Each episode explores the realities of child sexual abuse, institutional cover-ups, and the power of civil litigation as a tool for healing and accountability. Through interviews with survivors, attorneys, advocates, and experts, Justice Interrupted offers unflinching conversations, real-world strategies, and hope for change.

Drawing on decades of experience in the legal system and trauma-informed advocacy, Ben and Jen cut through legal jargon and media noise to deliver compassionate, practical insights for survivors and those who support them.

Whether you're a survivor, an advocate, or someone who wants to be part of the solution, Justice Interrupted invites you to listen, learn, and take action.

Because justice delayed is justice interrupted—and it's time we changed that.
