Helping her fund the best security may be all we can do. She deserves to have her life back, some idiots will say she made money on the event.

excerpt: Two GoFundMe campaigns set up during her testimony raised more than $800,000 (some questioned whether the money would be better spent on other, needier survivors, but Ford’s lawyers told NPR that she would donate any money she didn’t use on security and housing to survivors’ organizations). And some supporters sent Ford thank-you notes through her university or her Congress member’s office.
