What was said
"That's what she said to me at the end. She said, you know, because of her family's Holocaust history, she said, you know, watching that line was really important to me my whole life."
Anand Giridharadas says prosecutor Daphna Yoran told him her family’s Holocaust history shaped her drive to resist dehumanising others. He says she framed the Penny case as part of wider cultural currents that encourage dehumanisation, and worried an acquittal could reinforce that message.
