I am not sure whether to panic or rejoice knowing that if I am convicted I surely stand to set a precedent as the only virgin convicted of rape. I really shouldn't even joke about the matter but I'm not even sure how to feel right now. This is one of only like two things in my life that I haven't been able to simply laugh off. I am simply at a loss. |
I see where you stated you were still a virgin but what would make her go through the trouble of filing a suit like that? Is it for money? And if you are going to court for what is recognized as a malicious felony, weren't you arrested, first? As far as I know, you can't just send somebody a subpoena to court saying "You're being sued for rape." Some sort of criminal charge has to be filed first--and nobody is going to risk their career making an arrest of that magnitude without some evidence. It can't just be her word against yours.
