Take Back the News

Really?

Posted by Anna on July 5, 2007

Ms Girvasi [a co-worker] agreed with Mr Gipp’s suggestion that she did not like Alexander [a "carer" on trial for sexually assaulting four women at a nursing home] but denied telling people she was going to “get him” on assault charges.

I’d say not liking a co-worker who assaults clients is a perfectly reasonably position to have.

But apparently not. Witnesses who don’t like perpetrators are clearly malicious and out to get them, whereas women who had previously liked or been friendly to mean who later raped them are “asking for it”.

Can’t win.
