There was evidence! The police report states that the police witnessed scrapes on the womans body to collaberate her story. Yes, she may have filed a false report earlier, and I'm sure he used this against her in court, something she had done in the past, yet, they did NOT tell the jury about his past abuse charges!<br> Yet another abuser who slides through the system so that he can abuse another day. Yet another time the system fails a Victim, and helps to create the setting for the next victim............<br>TBMary's Worldhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05822991215725022384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-800199068470468980.post-82315395516583923072006-11-28T14:02:00.000-05:002006-11-28T14:02:00.000-05:00I agree that this is a huge mistake by the judge a...I agree that this is a huge mistake by the judge and jury! This case is a prime example of why we need to come together and stand up. He took the stand in his own defense?? DUH!! Did anyone think that he wouldn't? I would like to meet the locat prosecuter and ask him/ her a few questions!! The jury should have convicted this man. And the poor victim was abused again...only ny the system that should have protected her! <br>VJValeriehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07853459903949171001noreply@blogger.com
