Did this vicious little b*tch go and swear out charges against him?

I really don't know if the "vicious little b*tch" swore out charges against the vicious little b*stard.

I must say I'm unimpressed with either of you people's characterizations of the children here. By my reading, it's pretty clear that somebody--most likely the girl's parents--pressed the case against the young man.

Per Loin: I see no evidence that the girl lied about the overt facts of the case; if she's called to the stand, she's legally required to say what physically happened. Further, I conclude that she was not the instigator of the case based upon the following logic:

If things happened as she claimed, her actions at the time were not those of a woman being raped.
For her to decide on her own accord to press charges would thus be dishonest.
If she were so dishonest, she would have also come up with a better story to make her charges stick.
Therefore I don't think she brought the charges.

Judgeandjury: Do you find plausible the notion that a girl who is being raped would have, as her most extreme utterances, "I have to be going now" and "I need to go home"? Or that she would go 90 seconds without doing anything more emphatic?

From my limitted experience (with my wife), it seems that when a woman is receptive, each 'stroke' will generally make her more so. If she is non-receptive, each 'stroke' will make her less so. If the girl was really not consenting to sex, it should have taken her a lot less than 90 seconds for her to make it pretty darned obvious.
