Do you think they would file charges against a 17 year old rape victim in Michigan? What judge would sign the warrant?. He wouldn't be a sitting judge very long.

I can't believe that any "civilized" country would even consider charges be brought against this young lady.
Even worse is that I can't believe anyone on this forum would accept it as "that's the way things are"

The guy hasn't been caught so he's free to attempt this again and will probably make his next attack more violent to prevent being maced again . Yet law enforcement resources are being used to try to prosecute the true victim. Would you feel your daughter is safe in this country? What would you tell your teenage daughter as she left for school? Be careful and if someone wants to rape you be sure you don't do anything that might make him stop or you could go to jail!!

It's more like a slap in the face.

They might as well tell her that she should just expect that type of treatment if she is going to walk around being female!!

Yeah gun Control makes us all safer!! Then we can take away any other means of self defense and if you fight back we will arrest you. All of you women should just submit totally otherwise we will put you in jail.

Why should she be charged with anything?? Pepper spray is non lethal. They want to make it so women can't defend themselves at all. I would like to see what the outcome is of this and just how far they want to proceed with charges. I'll bet the wives and daughters of the judges, police officers, and legislators there will put an end to this real quick. Not to mention the women in the general public. If they don't then maybe we should send boats to Denmark and allow all the women to come to Texas for free, and offer them all free LTC courses.

What a crock!! I'm glad it wasn't my daughter, they wouldn't like Daddy being down at the courthouse!!!

This is the exact type of scenario the left wants, no way to defend yourself and if you do, then find a way to criminalize the victim.

One more thing, if they haven't caught the attacker, how can they charge her with anything?? Just because she told them she used pepper spray?
