Have any of the people who are furious even once considered the idea that maybe he's innocent? I've had people tell me, "There's NO way he's innocent," but you weren't there, were you? What are you basing that on? Right, emotion. "Feelings". Horrible.

Yeah, and is why there is no easy answer because most of it is
a whole lot of gray area because no one really knows except the people in the middle of a case like that.
After all, as I keep seeing people going on about online, innocent until proven guilty, of course, but people seem to miss that it goes both ways. Anymore, people are so fast to judge a woman who comes forward about something and start screaming "liar!", judging her as guilty of lying when they, nor anyone else, has any clue what the truth even is. It's all based on bias and feelings no matter what side someone decides to take. Being dragged into the public eye and judged as a liar with no real proof of that either can probably also ruin lives if you're branded with some form of a scarlet letter even if it wasn't deserved. Yeah, good luck changing jobs, etc if they recognize you but sided against you. No one is going to hire or otherwise work with a "liar," be it true or not. Could happen to either party.
I have no idea what to think in this case. It's all just a mess. The innocence here could go either way and none of us in the general public really has any clue. Both of them will not go unaffected, but he at least got the benefit of coming out on top. Good luck to her.

Wait, I thought it was the evil liberal mindset that was the worst.
This country did not deserve for things to go like this and get to this point, but I agree... it made that bed, and dug that hole. Can't go doing that without expecting to deal with the consequences of it.
