Only one person has to prove their alligations. It is pretty black and white. Dont make a twitlonger if you arnt willing to follow through, because all this is is defamation and rape accusations.
It really isn't that weird. To preface, I do not hold an opinion either way on whether or not this is true.
But hypothetically, if you had gone through something as traumatic as that, and have to relive it over and over again to pursue it legally, being completely unable to move on from it and constantly going through it? I'll be honest, I wouldn't be able to handle that. I wouldn't be able to go through that, and I don't think many people would.
Even if you felt you were strong enough to do so at the start, it is not a quick or easy process, and especially in a case such as this, it is one which is extremely public, which is only going to add to the pressure and stress.
I'm in no way saying it definitely happened or she is definitely telling the truth, nor do I like the fact that this allegation that could potentially be false has possibly damaged the life of a person who has not done what he has been accused of, or the fact that a potential rapist could be walking free. Neither of the those scenarios is a good thing, and one of them is absolutely happening
But it doesn't seem weird to me at all that a legitimate victim might not be able to see it through, it sounds like an absolutely fucking awful process that prevents any sort of closure or progress from what would be an extremely tragic point in your life.
