Monroe STOPe, a federally-funded domestic violence victim-service agency in Monroe County, Tenn. is hosting The Amendment Movie on April 8th at 6:00 pm, in honor of National Crime Victims' Rights Week 2019, at The Movie Palace in Athens, Tenn.

THE AMENDMENT is a powerful and inspiring true story of finding triumph over tragedy, injustice, and loss. In 1979, Brooks Douglass and his sister Leslie survived a devastating crime that rocked their community and took their parents� lives.

Initially sent into an emotional tailspin, Brooks regained his footing, became Oklahoma's youngest state senator, and championed important victims' rights legislation.

It is not until his quest for justice brings him face to face with his parents' killer that he finds the lessons of his father may hold the answer to finally finding peace.
