If you were a detective or a juror, or in charge of determining what happens to the accused in some other way, would your opinion or actions change?

Re: DA

A juror or detecitve is ideally supposed to have no bias; however, as that's unlikely to happen, I'd rather have one share my point of view than go in assuming that the accuser is lying.

Short answer: yes, because I don't agree with the state having the power to convict without evidence; I'm not a detective or a juror, so I'm not prepared to answer what level and type of evidence I'd need to either convict or acquit.

Re: DA

(Anonymous) 2011-01-06 12:44 am (UTC)(link)
So you do admit you have bias then... hmm. For me, I'm likely to believe the accuser or at least give them 99% of my belief even if the accused is acquitted, but the fact that false accusations exist will never let me let go of the other 1% possibility. Speaking only of cases where there is no concrete evidence like a witness or a rape kit and so on, that is.

Would you call me a misogynist?

Re: DA

[identity profile] meran-flash.livejournal.com 2011-01-06 12:49 am (UTC)(link)
If ever a case comes along and your reaction with no or insufficient evidence is to assume the woman is lying, then yes, that's an action based in misogyny.

Re: DA

(Anonymous) 2011-01-06 12:54 am (UTC)(link)
Is it misogyny if I would do exactly the same for a male victim?

Re: DA

[identity profile] meran-flash.livejournal.com 2011-01-06 01:08 am (UTC)(link)
Depends. Rape culture is in large part a product of sexism and misogyny against women. I'm my experience, negative reactions towards male victims is frequently the result of either sexism or homophobia, depending on the gender of the attacker.

Re: DA

(Anonymous) 2011-01-06 01:08 am (UTC)(link)
Don't almost all rape cases have a witness, unless the person was drugged or very young? I mean, the major force in an investigation is always a witness. Or are you saying victim doesn't count?

Re: DA

(Anonymous) 2011-01-06 01:18 am (UTC)(link)
I could be wrong, but I don't think they count in the legal sense, no.

Re: DA

(Anonymous) 2011-01-06 02:10 am (UTC)(link)
They absolutely do count, and its insane that you would think otherwise. Like terrifying. Like what the fuck, even. Do you think this about all crimes, or just rapes? If I saw someone bust up my window, would I be considered a "witness" in your book? Or are rape victims the only ones who apparently cannot see for themselves?

(Anonymous) 2011-01-06 02:26 am (UTC)(link)
Guess I was wrong. Was just hazarding a guess. /shrug I guess they probably meant unbiased witness or something.
