But 16 and 47? The girl could have an ounce of fault...if it's true.
I've been involved with a case where a man was falsely accused and every ounce of public information was against him. But when everything was uncovered, he was vindicated. But the man went through hell, lost everything including his family for a good while, but the things said about him will never go away.

And those cases are heart wrenching as well, which is why there needs to be solid evidence. There seems to be quite a bit in this case so far though, if what the papers say is true.
