Fucking hell, girl. I hope they castrate him.
Certainly before now I've tried to get him to stop doing something and there was no getting through to him until afterwards, but I wouldn't go to the police over that

The procedure in order to get a rape case to trial is borderline humiliation for the victim. I'm not 100% on the ins and outs though - Joel will probably be able to give more accurate information as I think he studied quite a few rape cases for his degree.
And that last paragraph is a grim read. I actually pulled this face as I got to the end =/
Quote: Howard Hughes, Sept 2009Glad you told him to GTFO Sarah. It's the third time now, if I recall correctly? You don't get accused on 3 separate occasions by 3 [presumably] unconnected women by being innocent.
It's the third time in a year, but I think it's been more than that. I don't see how he Could have done something that many times and never been in court over it though.
I mean, I know with him it would be hard to call because every time it's been a case where someone gave their consent and then changed their mind. How can you prove that either way?

Yeah, I did a mini-dissertation on the subject. The procedure for prosecuting rape is f*cked up and in desperate need of reform. Aquaintance rapes in particular are particularly hard to prove unless there are some signs of physical injury. You need a very strong victim to be able to put up with it all, which is why only 5% of reported cases end in prosecution. Ideally the victim should be exempt from cross-examination in court, which was proposed a while back but I don't think it's made any impact. Hearing a defence barrister cross-examine a rape victim is one of the most uncomfortable things I've ever heard, they will dredge up sexual history and stuff, while you can't refer to previous incidents of violence against women (for example) with regards to the defendant.
And yes, it still disgusts me that people who I KNOW are strong women put up with violence, especially sexual violence, in a relationship. Rape is rape, regardless of circumstance.

Again, not sure how accurate this is, but common perception is that if the person in question has a history of...promiscuity, chances of a conviction nosedive because a barrister can run very far with it. Ugh.

Yeah you are funny, even though you're a JERK who has strange ideas about people from Wigan.
All you Wiganers love pies, thats a FACT. Whether I'm a JERK or not.

f*cking ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.
motherf*cking piece of SH*T won;t even TURN THE F*CK ON WITHOUT A FIGHT.
all i get is a glowing black screen
then when it is on and working THE LIGHTS DON'T GO THE F*CK OFF.
when by some f*cking miracle they do, the notification light flashes for no goddamn reason.
if my wifi drops out, it has a fanny fit, screen fades to the f*cking glowing black b*ll*cks & none of the buttons do anything
you have to take the battery out to do anything with it.
which is very good for the thing now isn;t it
i thought re flashing things was supposed to fix them, not make them a MILLION TIMES F*CKING WORSE!
