Her attacker was her neighbor, a creepy handsy guy who finally saw his chance when she got drunk at a party.
It was impossible not to think of Kavanaugh and all of his creepy, rapey apologists while she was telling me the history of the attack.
Fortunately, he left evidence behind (and took pics with his phone!), and she sought appropriate medical care. She also filed a police report, and has been undergoing post-traumatic counseling. Her boyfriend knows and is very supportive of her. She presented today for an STD test.
I told her in no uncertain terms that the attack was not her fault, and that getting drunk does not equal consent to sex. I told her our entire team is going to do everything we can to help her recover.
But God-damn the monsters who do this shit!...
GODDAMN TRUMP AND HIS TRUMPANZEES! Just visited in clinic with a victim of sexual assault.
