The ones who proclaimed that rape victims got off on being victims, years later, made me want to hurl.

The post where it was proclaimed his wife "forgot about being raped" was fucking disgusting, not just the post, the jury that left it standing, but those who agreed you could!

Rape in quotes "rape" left by a jury. Attacking those who spoke against this. A fucking disgusting display.

A real fucking slithering low.
