Yes surely 17 years is it? is too long ago , why?
How will they get enough evidence, was there a crowd watching
The me too movement was needed
But some excesses are noted
Even in the 60,s and 70,s some claims turned out to be wrong balance needed

>have those lying feminist who accused Kavanaugh been put in prison yet?
No, runner, because it hasn't been proven beyond reasonable doubt that they were lying.
The presumption of innocence works both ways. Do you have a problem with that?

We shall have to wait and see as more information
comes out in this case. However, I also have a
problem with some of the aspects of the case.

We are told that the woman claims the rape took
place in September 1976 - when she was 18 and
Jarratt was twenty three.

It happened while she
was living with Jarratt and his then wife in a
house in Randwick while Jarratt's wife slept.
However the young girl continued to live in
the house after the alleged rape, and even went
to Queensland with Jarratt and his wife.
Apparently Jarratt got the young girl a role in
a film he was working in, as an extra.
Things don't quite add up.

Interesting to see what happens next.
Is this a publicity stunt - to get
Jarratt's name into the media?

Just a thought.

It truly, would be good if we could hear the evidence runner has to prove that woman lied
It is however good to know the world rejects such anti woman junk comment
As we get nearer Trumps unmasking as the thief and fraud he is, it will be worth noting the reaction of his supporters
Today,s news, from within his own camp, that he intended to gift Putin a multi million dollar pent house is not the finish

Well one of them actually admitted to lying. But all those who engage in right-think have long since forgotten that.

RObert,
I agree with you,and runner too, men and their careers are particularly vulnerable to allegations of sexual misconduct. A lifetimes work can be ruined by a vindictive allegation by a jealous woman years after a date.
I dont know how one defends himself from this as the woman is the one believed by many. At least the woman making the allegations should be named and not hide behind some stupid law.

In the case mentioned, there were a number of young people living in the same house and it is likely that there was some sexual activity within the group. But who could accurately recall who and in what circumstances it occured 40 years later.

Yes we need to concentrate on the kids being abused today and take far more seriously the occurance of underage marriage and FGM that happens now.
