Sorry, look into it a bit more carefully. In most states such information is not allowed-except under specific circumstances. The new rape laws do help some. A guy can't get six of his friends on the stand who will swear "Yeah, I had her too"(she's a whore defense). A defense lawyer can't ask a woman how many sexual partners she's had in her life (She let all these guys go to bed with her, what's one more/no big deal defense). A defense lawyer can't use former drug use or perhaps a bout of depression to convince a jury she can not be trusted to tell the truth about a rape (she's crazy,nutty and loony defense). To reiterate, there are laws against the above in most states. From what I understand, Colorado has some of the toughest laws on the books.

I am happy that you love your daughter and congratulate you on undertaking the raising of your daughter. Being a single Parent is the toughest job anyone could ever have. It sounds as if your ex (only hearing one side but...) was not Mommy material. Believe me, All women including your daughter benefit from stricter guidelines about what evidence ( I use that term loosely)can be considered admissable in a rape trial. Perhaps, one day women will not fear coming forward after a rape almost as much as being raped in the first place. LOL

-except under specific circumstances

One of the reasons for lawyers ..... to know how to admit the evidence. In my case, it was the proper defense. Personality disorders need to admitted, currently women enjoy way too many legal advantages over men in a court of law. That should change. Past sexual history can also be admitted when it can be clearly shown that the accuser is lying under oath (in my case I had letters ... that were admitted and read into evidence). Again one of the reasons for lawyers is to know how to present your case.

For the last ten years my life has centered on my daughter and my company. My daughter will (and is) get to make her own decision about her mother. She is a cheerleader and my shotgun is right next to the front door .... girls are indeed God's revenge to fathers .....
