This is where I am having a HUGE issue and back in the day of our founders I believe this is why we have the idea of:
Innocent until proven guilty
We have got to find a way to STOP THE COURT OF PUBLIC OPINION regarding “allegations” against people. It pains me to see innocent people deprived of their respect and livelihoods based on what has often been either outright false allegations.
The problem here is the apparent inability of some 13 to 16 alleged female victims finding themselves unable to take their complaints into a court of law, because the justice system and rule of law were denied to them in the first place. Some have said they went to the authorities and were laughed and/or scorned right out of their offices in disbelief and/or unwillingness to take the matter into a court of law.
***Innocent until proven guilty***
Let’s get Roman Polanski then. Already proven guilty of child rape.
You don’t believe the alleged victims have been denied their own reputations and livelihood because they were presumed to be guilty and not innocent when no one would represent them in a court of law?
