Message: [QUOTE="Sirlee oldman, post: 3000332, member: 8915"] Look I am sorry if I come across as aggressive on this issue but I have sat in the courtroom while 2 people I love have been torn apart by these arguments. I agree with the principle of innocent until proven guilty but I get very frustrated when that extends to actively questioning whether the victim is telling the truth. Where is her right to be believed until she’s proven to be a liar? He has good legal counsel so at this point all we can say about his side of the story is that he is entitled to a presumption of innocence. From her point of view she must prove his guilt and any thing she says is dissected for believability according to how you guys think you would react in her situation. I don’t think that’s fair. If he did what she says then she is traumatised and on the losing side of the argument before it really begins. How does she prove this unequivocally? I honestly don’t know. I hope that the physical evidence is there and the jury somehow can magically arrive at the right decision. The worst outcome we can have is that men realise that under our current justice system you can do whatever you want if there’s no video evidence and you have a completely ruthless piece of shit lawyer.
