Grandpa the reporter just explained that you have to make this big or justice wont happen since the ones in charge of the system have the power to cover it up and they will use it, they can even do it under the pretense of it all being for the sake of the victim just to on top of it all appear like they have the moral high-ground, helping Misato sadly also implies attempting the herculean task of having to change society, because it is the rottenness of those ruling society what came to abuse Misato, it was not just her dad and some random schmucks.
@Ominous when she was sleeping i was also wondering just when could she have come out of the comma, but nope.
