new2here Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 I wholeheartedly agree that speaking up is a big part of the solution… and i think having an environment that supports those who claim such is a key part.. that said, i ALSO think it’s critical to make sure that the accused — and that’s a key here “accused” - have their rights ALSO protected. In that i think it’s fair to recognize that the initial claims of “He did X to me” or “She did X to me” tend to be widely covered— IF it turns out that He or She didn’t do that, or he/she were acquitted in court — that part doesn’t commonly get equal coverage. So… i fully support the girls - or any victim of assault to come forward and inform the officials … (and yes, the officials MUST do their jobs after the complaint comes in) … and I also want to be sure the rights and assumption of innocence of the accused is ALSO respected - until some form of a recognized outcome (ie arrest, conviction, acquittal, etc) is made. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
