to a president or a party, but to the constitution of the united states. and loyalty to our conscience and to our god. my allegiance to all three is why i am here to say, while i concede this election, i do not concede the fight that fueled this campaign. the fight, the fight for freedom, for opportunity, for fairness and the dignity of all people. a fight for the ideals at the heart of our nation. the ideals that reflect america at our

best. that is a fight i will never give up. i will never give up the fight for a future where americans can pursue their dreams, ambitions, and aspirations. where the women of america have the freedom to make decisions about their own body and not have their government telling them what to do. we will never give up the fight to protect our schools and our streets from gun violence. and america, we will never give up the fight for our democracy, for the rule of law, for equal justice, and for the sacred idea that every one of us, no matter who we are or

where we start out, has certain fundamental rights and freedoms that must be respected and upheld. and we will continue to wage this fight in the voting booth, in the courts and in the public square. and we will also wage it in quieter ways in how we live our lives, by treating one another with kindness and respect, by looking in the face of a stranger and seeing a neighbor. by always using our strength to lift people up, to fight for the dignity that all people deserve. the fight for our freedom will take hard wor. but like i always say, we like

hard work. hard work is good work. hard work can be joyful work and the fight for our country is always worth it. it is always worth it. to the young people who are watching, it is i love you all. to the young people who are watching it is okay to feel sad and disappointed, but please know it's going to be okay. on the campaign i would often say when we fight, we win. but here's the thing. here's the thing. sometimes the fight takes a while. that doesn't mean we won't win. that doesn't mean we won't win. the important thing

is don't ever give up. don't ever give up. don't ever stop trying to make the world a better place. you have power. you have power. and don't you ever listen when anyone tells you something is impossible because it has never been done before. you have the capacity to do extraordinary good in the world. and so to everyone who is watching, do not despair. this is not a time to throw up our hands. this is a time to roll up our sleeves. this is a time to organize, to mobilize, and to stay engaged for the

sake of freedom and justice and the future that we all know we can build together. look, many of you know, i started out as a prosecutor, and throughout my career, i saw people at some of the worst times in their lives, people who had suffered great harm and great pain and yet found within themselves the strength and the courage and the resolve to take the stand, to take a stand, to fight for justice, to fight for themselves, to fight for others. so let their courage be our inspiration. let their determination be our charge. and i'll close with this. there's an adage, an historian

once called a law of history. true of every society across the ages. the adage is only when it is dark enough can you see the stars. i know many people feel like we are entering a dark time, but for the benefit of us all. i hope that is not the case. but here's the thing america, if it is, let us fill the sky with the light of a brilliant, brilliant billion of stars. the light, the light of optimism, of faith, of truth and service.

h you. may that work guide us even in the face of setbacks. to ward the extraordinary promise of the united states of america. i thank you all. may god bless you and may god bless the united states of america. i thank you all. thank you. thank you.

welcome back. when maryland stanley started dating zachary gross, she had no idea the relationship would end with her fighting for her life, his brutality escalating to a level that police called one of the most vicious attacks. they had ever seen. it was a miracle that marilyn survived. i went to kentucky to meet with her and to hear her story. a word of warning. there are details here that you will find very disturbing. marilyn stanley always wears a cap now, so nobody, including her, can see the disfiguring scars from her ordeal. >> i don't look at myself in the mirror with my head uncovered. >> she used to have a full head of beautiful blond hair and was living a happy life, raising a young son on her own in burlington, kentucky. that is, until she met 31 year old zachary gross. >> i would talk to him on facebook sometimes. >> the two began casually dating

within months. it turned into a serious relationship. >> it got more like exclusive. aren't supposed to go see anybody else but marilyn's mother. >> linda didn't approve. >> there was something i didn't like about him. i didn't trust him. i didn't think he was any good. >> and sure enough, marilyn says zach would soon reveal himself to be jealous, possessive, and controlling. >> the first time it was getting put outside of his house. >> over time, she says, he grew increasingly violent and abusive. >> it went from that to being actually pushed down like front porch steps. >> soon zach was beating marilyn regularly, she says. >> i got a broken nose and two black eyes. she tried to make excuses, but then kind of admitted that she'd been beat up. >> were you worried for your daughter? oh yeah. mom and daughter had good reason to

worry. >> and then after that, i got choked out. >> did you say to yourself, that's it, i'm done with you. >> after i was choked out, i did. i told him, dude, you're. you said you're going to kill me like i'm. i'm done. >> but zach wasn't about to let marilyn go without a fight. he schemed to see her in person, writing in a text message to my love bff, soulmate, lover. i hate, hate, hate that you are scared of me because you shouldn't have to be scared of the one you love. he'd been telling me for, like, days over texts that he wanted to talk to me. marilyn refused, but she says an obsessed zach started stalking her, following her everywhere she went and even getting a job at the same book warehouse where she worked. what could you do to stop him? a lot of times you don't feel like you can do anything. then he turned up on her doorstep at 6:00 one morning. >> so i opened the door and just

get punched in the face. >> when marilyn screamed for help, she says he turned crazy. he left her apartment and headed to her car. >> he jumped on the roof of my car until it caved in. he got his tire iron and smashed out my windshield and my back window. >> marilyn says zach was so unhinged she even feared calling the police. >> it didn't seem like he was going to stop. >> six weeks later, marilyn finally agreed to meet with zach in an attempt to talk sense into him. she was hoping to calm him down. it was a near fatal mistake. from the moment she walked through the door of his home. she was greeted with a punch in the face. >> i turned my back to him so he would be punching me in the back of the head and not in the face,

and then i ran for the door. but he picked me up and i was like mid-air, trying to throw myself down to the ground. so that i couldn't be dragged into his room. >> and marilyn stanley was about to be plunged into an unspeakable living nightmare. >> next thing i know, i'm on the ground in front of the closet on the being straddled across my waist, and my arms are pinned down directly at my side. >> marilyn says gross continued to hit her. she managed to grab a knife she'd brought to defend herself, but before she could use it, marilyn says she suddenly had a second attacker on top of her. gross's pet pitbull, capone. so the dog was on you already, and you're holding on to the knife? yes. coming up, zachary tries to blame the vicious attack on his dog. but what are police about to uncover?

>> the darkness of bipolar depression made me feel like life was moving on without me. then i found a chance to let in the light, discover cabaletta. >> unlike some medicines that only treat bipolar one, caplyta is proven to deliver significant symptom relief from both bipolar one and two depression, and in clinical trials, movement disorders and weight gain were not common. >> caplyta can cause serious side effects. call your doctor about sudden mood changes, behaviors, or suicidal thoughts right away. antidepressants may increase these risks in young adults. elderly dementia patients have increased risk of death or stroke. caplyta is not approved for dementia related psychosis. report fever, confusion, or stiff muscles, which may be life threatening or uncontrolled muscle movements which may be permanent. common side effects include sleepiness, dizziness, nausea, and dry mouth. these aren't all the side effects in the darkness of bipolar one and two. >> depression caplyta can help you let in the light. ask your doctor about caplyta. find

won't wait. .com. >> we're back with maryland. stanley's incredible story of survival, how she lived through the savage attack that left her permanently disfigured from head to toe is truly a miracle. her boyfriend, zachary gross, blamed the butchery on his pitbull capone. but was the dog just a scapegoat? is marilyn stanley attempts to fight off her boyfriend with the knife she brought to defend herself. his pitbull suddenly lunges. the dog would then bite off most of her right ear. >> it bit off the top part up here, and gross continued to hit her. >> before long, marilyn was unconscious. >> the next thing i remember is sitting up. the dog was gone and zack was kneeling in front of me, kind of like smirking, and he said, look at you, you're bald now. nobody's going to want

you. go look at yourself in the mirror. i didn't look in the mirror when he told me to. i looked kind of in the direction of it, but passed myself. >> but marilyn says gross wasn't finished. he continued to aggressively strike her, even cracking some ribs. marilyn, how long did you endure this torture? two hours after marilyn says gross gave her a t shirt to cover her wounds, a hoodie to put over her head, and then handed her a plastic shopping bag and i said, i don't want this. >> what am i going to do with this? i didn't know it was my scalp. >> so he didn't take you to the hospital? >> no. he drove me to the street past my mom's house. >> her mother will never forget marilyn turning up at her house. and i heard this voice say, help me. >> but i wasn't sure where it was coming from or who it was. >> and marilyn's sister ashley thought it was some kind of a

prank. >> but then she saw the blood drip down my forehead, and she knew that it was real. sorry. >> i always get upset at this point. >> it's okay. >> and that's when ashley hollered to me to call 911 that it was marilyn and that she was hurt real bad. >> it wasn't until the ems got marilyn to a hospital that her mother learned a part of her daughter's scalp was in that bag. did you think you were going to lose your daughter? >> i didn't know, i remember the doctor coming in to tell me my hair is never going to grow back. >> marilyn's life hung in the balance as she underwent emergency surgery to repair a severed artery. it took several more operations before doctors finally succeeded in patching her back, together with skin

grafts from her leg. >> so are you disfigured on your leg? >> yeah. the whole thing is a scar. >> despite a mountain of evidence, zachary gross denied he scalped and disfigured marilyn stanley after his arrest, gross even called a nationally syndicated radio show from jail to declare his innocence. >> projecting the blame. the news that i held a girl down and scalped their hair off. but it's been proven now that my dog did that. >> but detective brian cochran says the evidence spoke for itself right out of the gate. >> we had suspicions that it wasn't just a dog bite case. >> when investigators searched gross's home, they found a trail of blood leading from his bedroom to the bathroom, where he had tried to force her to look in the mirror. >> it was on the floor. it was on the walls. it was in the bathtub. it was on the towel rack. >> but the most incriminating

piece of evidence was a pink knife found in a dresser drawer. >> it was covered in blood. >> the same knife that marilyn put in her pocket for protection. >> our theory was that when zachary gross got possession of the knife, he used it on her. >> investigators would also learn gross had a lengthy rap sheet of violent crimes committed against other women. assistant prosecutor leanne beck says that the only hole in the case against gross was that marilyn was unconscious. the moment gross used the knife. >> that's the part that she does not remember. >> marilyn did recall lying on the floor, gross punching her and his pit bull, capone biting her. >> the scalp injury was more consistent with a knife than with a dog. >> that finding would be supported at gross's trial by plastic surgeon doctor william kitzmiller that because of the

straight nature of the edges, it seems to me more favoring a sharp object rather than a dog bite. the doctor's testimony was a crushing blow to gross's defense. >> that was the defense's theor. the entire trial that it was a dog attack. >> the jury quickly returned a verdict of guilty for assault in the first degree. gross remained unrepentant even at his sentencing hearing. >> i feel horrible for what happened. i feel that the verdict was wrong. >> zachary gross was sentenced to the maximum 20 years behind bars. after sentencing, gross spoke with our producers from behind bars, still claiming his dog did it. >> did you or did you not scout marilyn stanley with a knife? >> well, absolutely not. >> marilyn has faced her ordeal with courage, grateful to have

survived. but she admits she'll never move past the fear that lingers over the day. gross is eventually released. >> marilyn, what's it going to take for you to not be afraid anymore? >> i don't think anything could make somebody not afraid. he's a sociopath. he doesn't feel remorse for anything that he's done to anybody. >> if you or anyone you know is experiencing domestic violence, call the national domestic violence hotline at one 800 799 safe. that's 807 997233 or by texting, start to 88788. we'll be right back. >> when my mom needed adult diapers, i didn't know where to start. then i found carewell. i called their 24 over seven customer care team and got advice on which products were right for her. they helped me find the right fit and absorbency for her needs. i was
