On October 27th, 2019, freshman Democratic representative #KatieHill announced she would be stepping down from her position in Congress amid allegations of a sexual affair with her male legislative director and the publication of nude photographs and other materials substantiating separate allegations of a sexual affair with one of her female Congressional staffers.

But what is the lesson that we should be learning from Katie Hill, and is she really the victim here?
