It wasn’t rape, it was forced oral sex.
Not the same, but still a serious sexual assault.
Read her story again, read the details - it’s disturbingly believable. Like the Cosby women.
She admits she is a “proud Democrat”; why would she subject herself to this kind of humiliating public scrutiny if she wasn’t seeking justice?
my sympathies are with her as are my sympathies for other women who i have come to know who have told me in private or public their own similar horror stories. i agree it is very believable under this set of circumstances, and knowing no more info about it than we know now.
anyway... it is my uneducated understanding that some people define rape as penetration of a body orifice including the mouth by any foreign object including the alleged assailant’s penis. there might be minor variations due to regional jurisdiction by jurisdiction differences which preclude this definition. overall, i might be missing something, but if so, what? in how many if any states would the definition i just gave be correct? i do not know where i got my definition if anywhere, but about 10 years ago i binge watched some Law and Order: SVU episodes on late night cable tv. of course, that does not count as any particular expertise, medical, legal, or otherwise...
Well, strange that she reported it to a VA delegate two years ago, but it never came out publicly until SHORTLY AFTER RALPHIE BARFED ABOUT INFANTICIDE ON THE RADIO. And ol’ Ralphie and Herring both have blackface allegations made public, with Ralphie’s yearbook pic submitted to Big League Politics by former med classmates outraged by his abortion statements.
I’m still arguing coup attempt. If this assault really happened to Ms. Tyson, she may wind up feeling assaulted again if she realizes she’s being used in an attempt to overthrow the entire governor’s mansion.
Whoever is behind this apparently would rather have the GOP in charge, at least temporarily, than Ralphie’s crew.
What humiliating scrutiny? I haven’t seen Serpenthead on national TV talking about trailer parks.
