Why is Ann pushing this story without leading that a jury said her claims were bogus?

“The trial began in the Southern District of Texas on June 14, 2011.[21] Jones’s attorney argued that KBR had known about widespread sexual harassment but had ignored it because the remedy was too expensive. The defense argued that Jones fabricated her story of being drugged and raped because she was embarrassed about the consensual sex and wanted to get out of her year-long contract with KBR three days after she arrived.[6][22]

Jones’s first attending physician testified that Jones had not suffered damage to her breast implants or chest during the alleged attack. The prosecution also brought out that on two prior occasions Jones had reported being raped and that she had taken medication for anxiety, depression, and bipolar disorder.[23]

On July 8, the jury returned a verdict that rejected all of Jones claims, finding that the sex between Jones and the employee was consensual[4][6] (and therefore no rape had occurred),[7][8][9] and that KBR did not defraud her.[6][5][7]

Jones said, “I just thought that the physical evidence would help. I guess the fact that my entire life was on display and (his) wasn’t” made a difference.[24]

Bolen, a KBR spokeswoman, said, “The outcome of this jury trial as judged by her peers is the same result that the State Department got in 2005; that the Justice Department found in 2008. We are deeply gratified that the justice system has worked.” (Wiki)

What? She’s telling a story. Why would she put the end of the story at the top ?
