1. This just further illustrates how an accuser in a molestation case can expect to be treated

if she seeks any sort of redress. SHE will be put on trial. HER background will be questioned and attacked. HER reputation will be dragged out into the open and trashed and impeached as vigorously as possible. SHE will become "the issue."

In one respect, a victim of assault, who comes forward, thus faces a secondary assault - BY THE TEAM BEHIND HER ORIGINAL ATTACKER. Is anyone truly surprised that some of these women kept silent for years? Who the hell wants to go through that? Shit, there were even people here who immediately went after Gloria Allred as soon as another Moore accuser came forward, using Allred as her attorney.

ANYTHING to be able to attack.

ANY excuse to attack.

ANYTHING.

smh
