Jana Pruden/HandoutAs of this month, I’ve been a reporter for 22 years, much of which has been spent covering court and crime. That means I’ve spent a good part of my adult life reporting on and thinking about the terrible things humans do and endure, the things we survive and those we don’t.In that time, I’ve written about hundreds – and quite likely thousands – of criminal cases, and I’ve covered many long and intense trials.
From those unyielding wooden benches in Courtroom 417, I filled 11 thick notebooks – nearly 4,000 pages of notes – and ultimately wroteBut one story can’t express what it’s like to be present for a trial like this. The women’s stories were agonizing, the cross-examination relentless. On many occasions the women cried so hard court had to be adjourned so they would be able to continue testifying.
On another day, a woman’s cross-examination was interrupted by a fire alarm, and I filed out of the courtroom alongside a class of college students, almost all of whom were men. I overheard some of the students talking incredulously about the woman’s testimony, and saw one of them passing around a notebook with a cartoon drawing of a woman on the page. There was a speech bubble coming out of her lips, but I wasn’t close enough to read what it said. In a way, I didn’t have to.
MeToo proved that woman have no problem lying about rape or sexual assault to get what they want. More women got exposed for lying than men have been found to be guilty of anything. The bigotry & dishonesty from feminists today has no business in the court room.
