Please tell me i'm not the only one who still finds this ridiculous and believes that only a court of law can determine guilt?

The problem is sexual assault is not taken seriously by law enforcement, nor has it in recorded history. And this is a problem not unique to the United States.

In fact most municipal counties have an immense backlog of unprocessed rape kits. So most SA, by far, goes unreported, most reported SA goes uninvestigated, and most investigations don't lead to encryptions.

This is why Epstein could proceed with his predatory ring and expect to get away with it.

I believe her style movements in response to SA are not new, and tragically a recurring theme. Sometimes the public cares about SA allegations or sexual harassment patterns, and sometimes it's very meh.
