Are Liberals Too Eager to Believe Sex Charges Against Julian Assange?

161. They stated that there was no threat to them, that they were never in danger

and that there was no rape. One of the women has refused to sign the statement provided by the police after she learned of the rape allegations. That means she is not cooperating with the prosecution. She was distraught, not over the sex with Assange, but over the reports of rape, her only concern initially was that she wanted to know if she could force Assange to take and STD test.

That visit was distorted and sent to the Right Wing Tabloid Expressen, in violation of Swedish law especially in naming Assange which is illegal in Sweden. Only about six people had access to that information. The investigation is apparently still 'ongoing' after two years.

The women went to the police station to ask a question about getting a test for STDs They did not go to claim sexual assault. It was the police who took it upon themselves to make that claim, and the attorney who inserted himself into the case who believes that women do not know when they have been sexually assaulted (thank YOU Mr. Patriarchal defender of us stupid women) that the state will make that determination for them. If you believe that the state knows more about a woman's personal experiences than she does, then I guess you will agree with the attorney. I find it highly sexist and insulting to women.
