| SpokenTruth said: And this is why people don't report 80% of sexual assaults. Someone goes through one of the most traumatic events possible and they get met with "I'm skeptical you were assaulted. You're probably lying". So they feel violated twice. Nice. |
There's no exceptions with innocent til proven guilty. If you take a person's allegation as true by default, you're assuming the person they've made the allegation against is guilty by default. If you can't take word of everyone in a car accident as absolute truth, ya sure as hell can't take the word of an accuser of sexual assualt as absolute truth just because they've made an allegation. You have to double check everything they say like in any other criminal investigation.
