General prosecution would prefer to keep the victim out of it as much as possible. She will be scarred enough.. dragging it out and turning it into something political and hurting this girl more is disgusting and completely despicable. The defense has a right to an attorney but the community and media have no concern for the victim. I hope this girl has support and can stay strong through this. The left is pure evil
Most states have Rape Shield laws now to protect rape victims. And there are always different rules when the victim is a minor. The little girl may be able to testify via video.
Legal action against the perp has actually been shown to mitigate the damage to child sexual abuse victims. The child benefits from being believed and seeing the adults take concrete action on her behalf.
Amen
True words well said
