Rape trial dropped because attacks on the accuser endanger her health?

Could be worse, could have been made by News.com. But at least you would have watched in then.

Sucks when reality conflicts with your preferred narrative. I feel for you.
Did you keep your year seven school shorts in a plastic bag under your bed and never wore them again (except for that time you forgot about when you wore them to Miss fuzzy hairs 13th birthday party)?

That would never be admissible in a rape case, however it will be exhibit A in the flood of forthcoming Deformation actions. And now that Meli has posted it on here, both she and the owners of this site are now exposed to being co-defendants in one of their own.

Fucking morons.
Sucks when reality conflicts with how you want it to be.

And yeah, not admissible, the patriarchal system is designed to keep evidence from hired help like kitchen wenches, well away from the jury.

So as we open the 7th window here on Meli's Advent calendar, it might be time for a quick check of the score card...

Team 'We believe in procedural fairness, due process and the pillar of Beyond reasonable doubt'....
568 points scored.

Team 'I don't give a fuck about the truth or that there is no evidence, he is a white male from the Liberal party so he should go to jail'....
Nil.

I am just glad there is no Rugby Union style 'mercy rule' in the ancient and royal sport of internet shitfighting. Particularly when the opposition keep running the ball up.

With Lizzie popping her clogs recently and Chuck taking over, it made me reflect.
There was something nice about living in a patriachal society where the head of state has always been a woman.

You are right - what sort of system doesn't allow a biased video full of uncorroborated hearsay to be tendered as eva dense? They should have shown the Jury national lampoons animal house as proof of how all young men act.

Mate if you ever need anyone to tesify in court that you have mental health issue, I am there for you buddy. Your comeback to these forums is the best early Christmas present I have ever had.

Bruce Lehmann is a serial rapist.



It can now be revealed that Lehrmann was accused of sexually harassing or assaulting other women in articles that have since been deleted, after a suppression order was lifted on Friday afternoon.
In a judgment by Chief Justice Lucy McCallum on April 29, 2022, in which she refused to halt the initial trial, the judge noted that in the weeks after Higgins went public with her claims in early 2021, “allegations were published to the effect that the man who had sexually assaulted the complainant was also accused of having sexually assaulted or harassed a number of other women”.

“The most damaging material, in my view, is the material disclosing that other women had come forward with similar complaints after hearing the complainant’s allegations.”



ACT Director of Public Prosecutions Shane Drumgold announced he would not go ahead with another trial due to serious concerns about the impact it would have on Ms Higgins' mental health.
Following the prosecutor's announcement, Chief Justice Lucy McCallum lifted several court orders stopping information about the case from being published.
This included media reports about other women coming forward with similar allegations against Mr Lehrmann published after hearing Ms Higgins' complaints in 2021.

The former Liberal staffer accused of rape by three women and sexual harassment by another has checked himself into a private clinic after being stood aside from his job at a large corporation.

Former government staffer Brittany Higgins has alleged the man raped her in the office of their boss, then-defence industry minister Linda Reynolds, in March 2019, three weeks after she started the job. Three other women have since come forward with allegations of assault or harassment by the same man.

Because that information is inadmissible you dumb cunt.

Oh but it is.

The video may not be, but the information it is based on, is.

Notes from Security Guards, SMS text and voicemails. CCV footage, that BH was denied access to, records of access to the building including cleaners ... the lot!

But now the restrictions are off. This going to be good when Cash and Reynolds are asked to testify under oath.

My favourite part was someone calling in the cleaners!
Exactly - who the fuck would have their couch cleaned just because some pissed girl was found texting on it? I mean why should those visiting a minister of the crown worry about sitting on a couch that stinks of stale alcohol and (using the drink spiking evidence rule) urine?

Of course if she had 'remembered' that she had been raped earlier, it would have been a crime scene. I mean what sort of Minister gets there office cleaned?

Have the specific complaints / allegations been published?
We know one of them was sexual assault by leg fondling, which allowed Random to get in on the "me too" action. What about the others?

If there was a history of him taking women back to parliment, that would be informative.

You truly are an idiot, with zero understanding of the Law and rules if evidence. How the fuck do you think that some CCTV footage and a Security guards statement that prove she was pissed having any relevance?. She has already admitted that she went out and got herself as pissed as she ever has.
You need to give up the law and pursue your short story writing career.

Drunk women can't be raped?

And drunks who rape women shouldn't be accountable?

WTF? So you want to be schooled on the law again so soon? She has admitted that she got herself blind drunk so their is no reason or need to prove that she was. I have never said either of those two statements, but being drunk does not prove she was raped. What you fail to understand or admit is that her entire story is a textbook example of reasonable doubt. They will be using this case in laws schools for decades to come. It should be taught to all young girls as a lesson titled 'what not to do if you have been raped'.

When you no longer live in a country where nearly half the population think Roe v Wade is a discussion of the merits of Caviar vs walking in thigh deep water, you can lecture us about women's rights.

I have been to law school and I have been to many lectures since then. The continued legal education thing is required.

I may be a doting old dodger, but I still believe that young maidens need to be protected. I don't think that ever gets out of date.
