re: #235 Interesting Times

The article you link to says doctors who examined the girl found evidence of sexual assault. Hard to conceive of any “tale” the perp could tell to explain away something like that.

Well, that would be part of the evidence at trial, would it not? Every accused person deserves a defense, and we might as well throw out the law if people are allowed to take matters into their own hands.

Might as well go back to the old days, if we think it’s all right for people to do that.
