I mean depending on the context it might be a decent defense
I've seen judges let offenders off light on worse arguments. Unfortunately.
I've scene abusive and insane spouses that accuse there husband of abuse and even rape
No u haven't 🤥
Your choice of words was absolutely terrible. There is no such thing as a decent defense of rape. Now, an effective defense in our busted legal system? That's a whole different story. But "decent" does not apply in cases of sexual assault and violence. Ever.
If the person is innocent until they are proven guilty. Also it is entirely possible they were innocent
Your reply is completely unrelated to what I said. There is no such thing as a decent defense for raping someone. If they didn't rape anyone, good! If they did, that is an indefensible act by its very nature.
I made no comment at all on whether or not any specific individual is guilty or not. So I'm really confused what your point is here...?
You are saying that they don't set a defense. No matter the crime, you deserve defense. No one, not even sexual predictors, deserve to be stripped of constitutional rights. Such things also are related to prejudice.
No. Read it again. I never said allegation. I never referenced court proceedings. I said the act of rape is indefensible.
If you commit rape, there is no "decent" defense. If you didn't, then my comment doesn't apply. Simple as that.
There is no excuse for sexual violence, and there never will be.
