What is the moral to you?
- emodendroket 11y agoProsecutors essentially have the power to ruin anyone's life capriciously. It's not as though sexual assault is the only sort of crime people are ever falsely accused of.
- dudul 11y agoThat's a good point, but sexual assault is the perfect fit for greedy prosecutors who want to score a big win before an election. Sexual assault is the only crime where there is sometimes not even real proof that the crime actually happened. As opposed to a murder or a theft or financial montages. Most of the time all we have is the word of a woman saying it happened. Sexual assault is the only crime where we lower the bar of "beyond reasonable doubt".
- emodendroket 11y agoI don't really agree with you. And even if you're right about sexual assault being uniquely suited to this, what difference does it make whether the alleged victim is a millennial, or even a woman?
