Hard to tell what actually happened. Looks like he/she (he?) said thing. Why are some of these charges being brought decades later. If incident happened, the evidence can only be gathered right after, otherwise, it will be just that he/she said, which is not enough for a criminal conviction.
Well, then the entire case is just an accusation without much evidence besides "trust me bro" and outside of Weinstein who was notorious, it is very unlikely to result in conviction.
Criminal law requires evidence, otherwise it would be abused by people to get rid of people they don't like or for profit.
This is actually the truth. I am a CSA survivor, and I didn't report and now I wish so bad I did.
If anyone reading this has recently been through it, report it now! Don't wait 20 years like me to even confront it and then never have a chance at closure.
