“wHy dON’t wOmEN rEpOrt rAPe?”

Veronika Rodriguez was raped by a military doctor.

While out with this man she felt something was a amiss so she started recording him. The military believed her and kicked him out.

The local DA has charged her with a felony for recording without consent.

I reported an officer in the military. My niece friend told me about her doctor doing stuff that made her uncomfortable. I immediately told my husband who was an agent back then and it was reported. There was a trial. Come to find out other females had similar experiences. He went to jail.justice!!!

Because men like my Drill Instructor were investigated 7 times but nothing was done until AFTER he raped a 14-year-old girl while filming it on his cellphone and the parents refused to let it rest until OSI got involved.

Sadly, yes, PA is a 2 party consent state for recording. Falls under PA Wiretap laws.

notsodivinemsm.bsky.social•13 days ago

I looked it up, too. We're also a two party consent state here in California.

donna-retired.bsky.social•13 days ago

There are pros and cons to it. Under the circumstances to charge the victim is alarming. They wonder why victims are reluctant to report assaults.

mantione.bsky.social•13 days ago

In the 1990's, I listened to an interview with an African-American studies professor who was asked a question about structural sexism & prejudicial attitudes towards women as inferior. His response was sexism has far deeper roots than racism & it will be harder to eradicate. 1)

mantione.bsky.social•13 days ago

There are a few matriarchal societies in the world, but sexism is embedded in families, laws, governments, religion, workplace, health care, etc.

Feminism is not about hating men. It's a belief in equal rights for all. We can not have peace w/o the recognition of equality of the sexes.

wcgrumpystump.bsky.social•13 days ago

They believe,they are just to Chicken 💩. To face those with power who are either complicit or equally evil!

jaynemaynes.bsky.social•14 days ago

This sounds like a DA who is also a rapist but hasn't been caught. Best thing would be to fire him and charge him with fabricating crimes that don't exist.

cmcurran75.bsky.social•14 days ago

Yep we are now in the rapist has more rights than the victim version of the US. It is open season on women in America

iamjniles.bsky.social•14 days ago

I reported both my rapists, but when they questioned the first guy, he denied it and the 2nd dude was homeless so they couldn't find him to question him.

So the police closed my case. And this was in 2008.

willis13.bsky.social•14 days ago

I was raped in 2004 and went to the hospital with the condor full of his sample. The cops told me it was my fault for being out drinking and I probably asked for it and changed my mind. I was drugged at a gay bar and I’m a lesbian 🧐

1rmctldy.bsky.social•14 days ago

Time for women to band together. Noone has our back. Can we protect ourselves? Can we protect one another? History says men are the enemy of women, children and all innocent things. I know it’s a generalization but true in the overall. The tales of Amazonian women can’t be all myth. ShootNfight.

iamjniles.bsky.social•13 days ago

That's absolutely horrible, I am so sorry. People at that time were a lot less educated or compassionate when it came to victims of sexual assault/abuse/rape. It happened to me in 2005, and I was 20. I didn't learn until years later about rape kits and what they were, or to...

iamjniles.bsky.social•13 days ago

save things like my sheets, mattress, etc, so I could get samples of their semen. I was so uneducated about all that stuff. School taught basic biology, and my parents were always too embarrassed to talk about it, so I had no idea what to do. I didn't even know if I had been raped.

iamjniles.bsky.social•13 days ago

I wasn't fully aware at the time what it really was. I even told my primary care physician I needed to be seen immediately because I thought I had been raped. It was 2 weeks before they could get me in.

Thankfully there was a Planned Parenthood down the street and I got a morning after pill.

The detective asked me “what were you wearing?” I yelled at him. It was Christmas Eve and I was wearing winter clothes.
He falsified my report to look like I wanted it. The Dearborn, Mich PD covered it up and let him retire with his pension. The WCP covered it up! The serial rap!st is still rap@ing

rape-axe.bsky.social•9 days ago

MOST rapists are serial offenders. Statistically a rapist will commit the crime 7 times, on average. Every time we stop, catch and incarcerate a rapist, we are likely PREVENTING future rapes from occurring. The long term objective is to stop them at #0… learn how at www.rape-stop.com

lolobug.bsky.social•13 days ago

I’m so sorry that happened to you.

traversegirl.bsky.social•12 days ago

Thank you! I just wanted to get a serial rapist off the street so no one else is horrifically assaulted like me. I also believe he is a serial killer. Dearborn PD and WC prosecutors office are full of corruption. I kept thinking that the next person on the ladder wasn’t corrupt, but they all are!!

lolobug.bsky.social•12 days ago

This is how both rapists and serial killers go free for far too many years without getting caught. It’s absolutely terrifying how many of them are LEO as well. 🤬

Almost the same thing happened to me in the military except they didn’t do anything to the officer. I got a very bad evaluation and no end of tour award. The sad thing is that the only ones who did believe me was NCIS. My command didn’t though and I was the one ultimately punished!

Oh I know. I consider men who do that without knowing me are just creepy af! I was 25 when that happened, I’m now 48. I don’t date anymore, I don’t drink anymore. I do neither because I no longer trust men.
