Innocence Bonnie Cohen does a magnificent job in directing this heart-wrenching film on rape and sexual harassment. The consequences set for hubris sexual predators are less than ideal for the victims in “Audrie and Daisy”.

Stanley Cohen (1973) suggests that the media depiction of anti-social behaviour helps to construct folk devils. Folk devils become the focus of public fears and anxieties. They are made to stand for wider problems and concerns and‚ in the process‚ become the figures who exemplify ‘what is wrong with society today’.
