- PaulHoule 4y agoIn the case of masterson it is a sexually specific crime. A sexual abuse victim would not be disqualified from serving on a jury for, say, bank robbery or embezzling. The main issue is that if happens to you it makes a wound that doesn’t ever heal and you are very inclined to want to pass your trauma forward to somebody…. If you knew that person crossing the road in front of you was a molestor you might think about not applying the brake…
- SamoyedFurFluff 4y agoYou’re assuming sexual assault victims not being the jury of sexual assault trials is somehow special to sexual assault victims because of how sexual assault is. In reality any victim of a crime is not eligible for jury to trial the exact same crime- victims of embezzlement are likely to be thrown out of embezzlement trials, gun violence victims from gun violent trials, etc. sexual assault isn’t somehow special in that case and has no correlation with the other claims you’re making.
