Christ, it’s like people just throw this out to virtue signal. YES we all know how notoriously hard sexual assault cases are to prove and prosecute, but you can’t use that to smear everyone that is accused. You have no idea how many of those 97% of cases were true, and you can’t prove a negative. We can’t operate a society where you are guilty until proven innocent, as admittedly broken as the system is.
do you know less than 3% of rape cases end in prosecution?
What’s your point? It’s still innocent until proven otherwise no?
by suggesting that unless there’s a prosecution, it is a non story, is siding on the side of the perpetrator rather than the victim

What is your solution then pal? just carry on and pretend like rape isn’t pretty much decriminalised?
