Joseph Carl Roberts, the former poster child for accused men, is now on trial for murder

After Navy veteran Joseph Carl Roberts was expelled from Savannah State University amid accusations of sexual harassment, he became a poster child for men claiming they were falsely accused and successfully lobbied for rollbacks to Obama-era Title IX reforms.
That activism earned him national media attention and a seat on a local Republican committee in San Francisco.
Today, Roberts faces much more serious charges: He is on trial for killing and dismembering his girlfriend, Rachel Elizabeth Imani Buckner.
Investigative reporter Matthias Gafni tells host Laura Wenus Roberts' story and the latest from his case.
