Why didn't this come out a year ago...5, 10...20 years ago?
When you ask that question, you should ponder it as well. What is happening lately all around the nation, all around the world? What is the "#me too#" movement? Why are women coming out now about Harvey Weinstein? And countless other men, in many different professions, all around the globe?

The bottom line is that allegations of child molestation against Roy Moore is a factor to be considered in whether to cast your vote for or against him. The Statute of Limitations bar a trial so we we the voters are the jury.
I believe the victims.
You either are for the perv or not.
Alabama will be for the perv, because he quotes the Bible. That's enough for them.
I'd be stunned if Moore suffers any consequence from this. In Alabama, if you can quote the Bible nothing else matters. I would love to be wrong, but I don't think I am. Watch and see.
I assume you believe the Duke guys are rapists. It doesn't matter they were not. They are guilty because they were accused.
How about we make our legal system that way?
Again we aren't talking about the legal system the statute of limitations has run out so the issue at hand is the current election and whether or not the accusation is credible. I say the accusation is credible and based on that in my opinion is Roy Moore is unfit to serve.
There will not be a trial. The SOL bar it. The question is do you believe him or the victims?
I asked this same font if he thought it was okay for a judge to give Brock turner 3 Months for rape because he was a “good boy” but never got a response
These comments are the perfect example of why victims wait 5, 10, 15 etc years or never at all to report their abuse.
The burden of proof always relies on the victims, they are made to be liars or opportunist while not even getting much justice with rapist serving anywhere from 3 Months to 25 years depending on the judges
According to this article in Slate, between 8% and 10% of rape allegations are false.
Again we aren't talking about the legal system the statute of limitations has run out so the issue at hand is the current election and whether or not the accusation is credible. I say the accusation is credible and based on that in my opinion is Roy Moore is unfit to serve.
More fake news. Where were these women 30 years ago???? I hope Judge Moore sues for defamation and bankrupts these liars.
