Here's A Thought, Ladies: Maybe They Weren't Rapists At All..?

 


The inaccurately-named Centre For Women's Justice seems to need a lesson in what 'justice' actually is...
We have done this in the light of the recent plummeting volume of cases prosecuted and our own case work, which tells us that rape myths and stereotypes continue to infect the system.

Other research tells us something different, though. Who to believe, the people who understand the law, or the single issue whackjobs who believe arrest = guilt (but only if you're a man)..?

Our report makes a series of recommendations designed to ensure accountable leadership, radical thinking in our court system including a commission on juries and the adversarial approach, funded independent legal advocates, a ban on previous sex history, and adequately funded holistic specialist support services for survivors.

If you start from a standpoint that all acccusations are true, why don't you go the whole hog and demand the abolition of the trial system entirely?

While there is no punishment for a false accusation, they will continue to be made.

Obviously, real rapists need to be punished, but so too do lying bitches who make up lies to destroy a man's reputation.

They won't be happy until they've developed parthenogenesis, thus enabling all males to either be aborted or strangled at birth.

I trust the ladies(?) of the Centre for Women's Justice will also support radical thinking in the court system, commission on juries, and holistic specialist support for survivors of vicious, vindictive, false allegations of rape by female harridans who appear only too happy to see innocent men spend years in prison for offences they never committed. Perhaps this radical thinking of courts will include such false allegants being given the same penalty as their intended victim would have received if cound guilty, instead of a slap on the wrist, £50 from the poor box, and psychological help for their (sometimes previously unmentioned mental health problems).
In my time as a Police officer, I have seen both sides and genuine victims of rape deserve a full investigation and action. That investigation, however, must be an impartial one. I have had much pleasure in seeing rapists and male sexual offenders going down for quite a few years after investigation and evidence. I have, also, had the sad task of prosecuting females who, for whatever reason, alleged a rape that never happened. Some of these innocent men have lost their reputations, their jobs, their homes and, in some cases, their marriages.
To investigate a crime, the Police should accept nothing, question everything and constantly challenge everyone. This is the nature of impartiality, and is the best way of investigation until a better one is found.
Unfortunately, this Centre is likely to be a single issue, tunnel visioned organisation where woman good, man bad, is the creed.

I agree wholeheartedly with Penseivat's comments above.
I spent 28 years in the Police, retiring in the rank of Chief Inspector. I was involved in the investigations of a number of rape allegations, I forget the total numbers but I remember vividly the fact that only TWO of the allegations turned out to be true. The principal cause of the false allegations was a distraught Mother, when finding out that daughter was pregnant, insisting that it must have been caused by rape. Her darling daughter would never have opened her legs for a male, under any circumstances other than force.

It's not that there's no punishment at all (there sometimes is) but that it's rare and inconsistent.

"They won't be happy until they've developed parthenogenesis..."

I bet somewhere, someone's working on it!

"...will also support radical thinking in the court system, commission on juries, and holistic specialist support for survivors of vicious, vindictive, false allegations of rape by female harridans who appear only too happy to see innocent men spend years in prison for offences they never committed."

Yes, I'm sure they will... 😉

"... I forget the total numbers but I remember vividly the fact that only TWO of the allegations turned out to be true."

That's an astonishing ratio!
