this is such wonderful information and exactly why i so much appreciate 
listservs like this!  Any thoughts on the "innocent victim" part?  That 
really throws me off...

I should add that during her case against the city/police, she called herself 
"Jane Doe" to protect her anonymity.  She is from a small town in Connecticut 
and everyone had already read all about her case in the newspapers.  The 
police believed she was covering up an affair because of a baseless anonymous 
tip call.  Rumors were flying around the town and she wanted to protect her 
identity.  In calling her agency "Jane Doe No More" she was literally lifting 
her own anonymity and focussing on her strength and survival.
