I'm sure she has her fair share of trauma and anxiety and so on, but she never lets it get to her. She always just keeps going. And there's no rancor, if you'd been falsely accused of murder and convicted and falsely imprisoned for several years, you would presumably feel some rancor towards the people who did that to you, but she doesn't. She works really hard to feel empathy and curiosity and compassion towards everybody -- including her prosecutors.
