In the Soviet of Washington, there is implied guilt. If you are male,
you are already guilty.


Agree Agree I reside in Washington!!!


Sad but often true, also in Oregon. I have a relative who got in an argument
with his wife, she screamed rape, they locked him up for some number of
weeks (cost him his job) in jail, and then they threw the case out when they
realized she had assaulted him and there had been no sexual contact at all.

In an even more disgusting case, I had an uncle who was charged and
convicted for molesting his infant granddaughter. A jury convicted him but
the judge refused to sentence him to anything further than the conviction on
his record--he was a corrections officer, so it destroyed him--because
according to his own daughter, he had NEVER BEEN ALONE WITH THE BABY. The
judge said he couldn't overturn the jury's verdict, but he wasn't going to
further punish an innocent man. (Basically, he'd been letting his step
daughter and her husband live in a house he owned, and they stopped making
payments so the son-in-law filed charges and tried to sue him for the
house.)
