Collecting testimony from a recently-traumatized victim is a delicate process, and police often don't do it properly, resulting in the loss of key details that could have resulted in a conviction. What do they "not do properly"? I'm not aware of them collecting testimony differently in sexual assault cases. adjl posted... The prevailing attitude of "this is going to be hard to prove" also discourages many victims from reporting in the first place, even in cases where there is physical evidence to be collected. So because people don't find the facts consoling, that's the fault of law enforcement? You probably shouldn't push for punishing others if you haven't got a good way of proving it, you'll only be wasting people's time. This is not different in sexual assault cases. adjl posted... It is actually the job of law enforcement to listen and believe. They're actually supposed to believe the accused is innocent, which is directly in conflict with believing the accuser. adjl posted... A certain degree of judgement is important to avoid wasting resources on obviously frivolous cases, but for somebody with no history of making false reports and no obvious psychosis (or other mental condition that would be very likely to result in blatant fabrications), a genuine effort should be made to take their claims seriously and investigate them to the fullest possible extent, whatever those claims are. A genuine effort should be made in all accusations regardless of prior history or mental illness. And it is. adjl posted... As much as people like to cite false sexual assault accusations as being a major problem, they aren't actually all that common, almost always fit a well-established pattern consistent with the behaviour of pathological liars, and virtually never result in an actual conviction. They're nowhere near a significant enough issue to affect how readily sexual assault claims are taken seriously, even in cases where concrete proof isn't immediately available. That's irrelevant, we do not live in a society where your word is enough alone to punish anybody for anything. You will need proof and if you do not have it then you need to accept that nobody can help you get revenge in good conscience. --- Scloud posted... Its like he wants two things at the same time. ...
