ORIGINAL: Greta75 I have a case in my country which I thought irrevocably, it was 100% rape, but the rapist got the best criminal lawyer in my country and somehow got off. That would be your opinion, nothing more. quote:
ORIGINAL: Greta75 The girl was heavily intoxicated, he brought her home, she was crying and saying she don't want it, and she even managed get to her handphone and call her mom and cry in distress for her mom to come get her! He snatch the phone from her and told her mom, everything is okay, he will send her home to the mom in the morning. Then he shut off her phone and kept her away from being able to use her phone and he raped her, and then threw her out of his home naked without her clothes. She actually had to ask passerby for help while naked, trying to get home. This sounds like a one-sided story that isn't telling the whole truth. The only 'evidence' would be the time of the phone call. Everything else is pure conjecture and spin. There is nothing in this portion that has any independent witness to prove the validity of the story. Without that, it's just a story and nothing else. quote:
ORIGINAL: Greta75 This man was not convicted of rape, despite clear medical evidence that her intoxication level of alcohol was extremely high. And while they accuse her of agreeing to go back with the guy, she claimed she was too intoxicated and weak to know what was really going on until she got to his home and got really scared and didn't want to have sex with him! But there were no wounds, nothing, no violence was done to her, she claim she was too terrified to fight back. Sounds like she was half-pissed and decided after the fact that she didn't like it. With a minor spin on words, this could very easily be a case of remorse. Without being there, it's one person's word against another. If you take this part: "she claimed she was too intoxicated and weak to know what was really going on until she got to his home and got really scared and didn't want to have sex with him! But there were no wounds, nothing, no violence was done to her, she claim she was too terrified to fight back" at face value, it would seem that she had sufficient mental capacity to be aware of what was going on. Whether she gave consent or not is never likely to be known. quote:
ORIGINAL: Greta75 It is not easy to prove rape, so I don't know why you think alot of men are gonna get in trouble. I think more women who actually got raped can't prove it is more of the bigger issue. In essence, there's no difference between consensual sex and rape except that small little word called "no". There doesn't have to be bruises and other damage for there to be rape and if there are, that could easily be explained away as a bit of rough sex. Without independent video evidence, there's no way of knowing one way or the other. quote:
ORIGINAL: Greta75 This was one case that always troubled me, how did the man get off! How is it possible she was considered consensual in her state! I've known girls to be blind drunk and not be able to stand but still in full control of their mental faculties. There's been others where a glass of wine is enough for them to be away with the faeries and completely oblivious to the world. Without you actually being there, there's no way of telling how much control the girl actually had. This scenario could equally be rape or regret depending whose story you want to believe. quote:
ORIGINAL: Greta75 The funny thing is, the advice for women when they do get rape is to incite the man into getting physical violent with you, so there will be physical hurt evidence. You can't win him, but make sure there is alot of evidence of resistance. That's actually very bad advice and could get you killed. Evidence of resistance is not evidence of rape. That's a fact. The guy got away with it because there was no clear-cut evidence of rape. I'm not saying if she was raped or not but he was obviously given the benefit of the doubt where there was no other corroborating evidence. It's a case of innocent until proven guilty and there was no proof. There are many cases of rape where the guy has been falsely accused and imprisoned only to be released later when the true story gets reported. In these cases, the guy has often lost his whole life, marriage, job etc on a false accusation. Equally well, there are cases where rape has not been proven and the guy got away with it. In the case you posted, you have obviously sided with the girl and you say it's definitely rape in your books. I'm just putting the other side of the coin.
